Hayes' Southern Policy.
[From the St. Louis Correspondent of the
Courier-Journal,]
Tho Republican party will not be
able to carry out in the South what
they propose, but there is no help in
Hayes; Democratic majorities in both
houses of Congress will secure and in
sure good local governments in all the
Southern States, The end of enrpct
baggery is at hand, and a better state
of things is confidently to be looked
for in the States now burdened with
bogus governments. So fur as it is
true that the experience of sue h in
justice in the South will cause the for
bcarancc of injury to appear like a
kindness, so far will Hayes' policy be
what is now proposed by his friends.
Uolief from injuries that ho will bei
unable to inliiet, will be a blessing
Thcve specious proposals from the
Republican party come us a quasi
apology to the Smith anil to the Dem
oerath: party at large for the iniqui
t ies of the Presidential court. They
are meant to console us. It is not
seriously expected that we shall be
much cajoled. The pacific policy
twaddle, first und hist, is an admission
of fraud and a confession of weakness.
When Republicanism was at its zenith,
and ran riot, its tone towards the
South was anything but tender. Then
they calculated coolly upon making
Tciritorics of such Southern States us
they could not control, upon African
i/.ing ?01110 of the Gulf Stales, and up
on forcing the South "to accept the
situation"?meaning what not by
(hat?by Northern plantations, and
the annihilation of whatever is dis
tinetivc in the South. Now, as they
lind that the y are losing their grip,
and that in order to hold on to t. c
general government they must pre
vent the South from becoming ?'solid,"
(hey beg u.v to keep iu a good humor,
compliment Southern conservatism,
and < ngngc iu advance to bury the
linti lu t. It i.- like the song of a dv ing
swan, sweetest at t he last.
N 'thing that Mr. Hayes can do can
make his administration good. It was
larceny all the same, although we
dropped the stolen shilling into tin*
missionary bo.v, '1 he country can not
be blinded to manners in which Hayes
was made the president by any real or
i in aginary virtues of his. In the four
years to come,* in order to avoid politi
eaI decapitation, ho, must serve at
least two ?masters to the tolerable satis
faction of both of them?his party
magnates on the one baud and opposi
lion majorities in Congress on the
other. To fail in this will ruin him,
and to succeed will hand his name
down to posterity as the greatest poli
ticnl acrobat in history.
Why the Hampton Trial Justices
do not Act
The importance of this question,
ami the correct answer to the people
of Charleston, cannot bo over estima
ted, ami with a view to acquainting
our readers with the present state of
a flairs, a statement was obtained yes
tci'day from Mr. Robert Chisolm Jr.,
which is substantial}' as follows:
Mr.* Chisolm states that the trial
justices in this city appointed by
Governor Hampton are C. II. Rivers,
Ksrj., R. R. Buriiet, Esq., Maj. De
Lany and himself. By consent Mr.
Chisolm has taken the en tiro manage
mcnt of tho effort to enforce their
authority. Of course a trial justice
cannot seek business, but must wait
until it is brought to him. If pcopl j
will not go before the Hampton trial
justices, they cannot hclpt it. Mr.
Chisolm expresses himself prepared to
force to ail issue any case that may be
brought before him. lie says that
about, the last of February a case was
brought before him by the British
Consul, charging a sailor on the Eiig
lish steamship Bavaria with having
stolen a large sum of money. After
investigating the case, he issued a
commitment and put it the hands of
the constablo with orders to deliver
the prisoner to tho jailor. The jailor
refused to receive the prisoner because
he had been instructed by Sheriff
Boweil not to rcccivo any prisoners
committed by any of the Hampton
trial justices. On tho constable ro
porting this refusal to him he turned
the prisoner over for sale keeping to
tho United States commissioner, J. E.
11 agood, Esq. As soon thereafter as
he could see Judge Reed he explained
tho case to him, and staled that he
understood that ho (Judge Reed) had
determined not to decide the question
of what justices were to be recogniz
ed, and asked him what course to
pursue, as the jailor had released the
prisoner charged with a grievous
crime. Judge Reed replied that he
would not hear the case, and, if he
was forced to hear i t, he would not
decide it, and gave as a reason that
it was the request of ?he Rar of Char
leston that he should not decide in the
case of the jury commissioner, its it
was indelicate for him to decide a
a question which was before the
Supreme Court. He said that it was
best for these matter i to come through
those justices ic cognized by (he
she rill' and jailor. Mr. Chisolni cyi
dently thinks 'that the whole blame
for the people of this city being bail
lied by bogus justices should fall on
the Hon. J. 1*. Reed, the Judge of this
Circuit,
A Sewing Machine Companys
Failure.
Another sewing machine company
(the Beck with) has succumcd to the
pressure of the times, and gone into
the hands of a receiver, it is not a
question of profits now with the best,
of them, but a struggle for existence.
In view of the general prostration of
business, and the difficulty of making
collections, the enormous credits al
lowed to purchasers of machines arc
enough to tnx the strength of every
establishment. It would he a sad day
lor the needle woman, when the coin
panics could no longer extend to them
the considerations they now enjov.
No other branch of trade so indulges
them. Tho butcher, the baker, tho
grocer, and the dry goods ?lealer must
have their pay, which is often in a
great measure secured to them by the
earnings of the sewing machine; while
the sewing machine dealer must wait
for his ptiy until the family is warm
ed and clothed and fed by the means
be has furnished. It would be indeed
a public calamity for the leading sew
ing machine companies to break down .
It would snap the foundation of the
sewing woman's credit, weaken the
guaranty of the machines, and cut oil'
the necessary supplies and repairs. A
sewing machine needle is as good as
an indorscr of a promissory note, and
purchasers should scrutinize as care
fully the responsibility of the vendors
as of a Life Insurance Company! in
which their lives are insured.?tfeic

Dr. Enrquhurson says : ".So long
as a brain worker is able to sleep well,
and to lake a fair proportion of out
door exercise, it may safely be said
that it is not necessary to impose any
special limits on the actual number of
hours which he devotes to his labors.
But when what is generally known as
worry steps in to complicate matters,
when cares connected with family ar
rangements, or with those numerous
personal details which wc- can seldom
escape, intervene; or when the daily
occupation of life is in itself a fertile
source of anxiety, then wc find one or
other of these three safeguards biokon
down."
Thanks, and a thousand ol" them, to
that unknown genius who entrusted a
trunk, with a hive of hues in it, to the
tender mercies oi a Syracuse baggage
master, the other day. The company
will pay for the bees and the doctor
thinks his patient will be around
again in a fortnight or so.

Sheop Husbandry.
Mr. A. 11. Terkins, of Verneint, a
well known breeder of sheep, rend a
useful essay before the Ycrnnnt Hoard
of Agriculture, from which we make
a few extracts :
Good sheep husbandry costs less
than poor, and pays threefold more.
Good .'?beep husbandry consis'.s in a
great measure in doing the right work
at the right time. Thus, if we shear
sheep, we do it in season; do not let
them wear their fleece a month alter
it bus become burdensome to (.hem.
June is one of the best mouths in tho
year for sheep to thrive, it they are
shorn. It costs less to house a flock
of sheep that at e just shorn, before a
storm, than it docs to cart them to the
barn when they are ben timed and
chilled. It costs less (,) mend the
fence, before the sheep get into the
habit of being tin roily, as we call it.
It costs less to cut sind cure the hay
in season and when the sun shines,
than it does to do it out uf season and
in rainy w eather, if from any cause
our hay is poor, it costs less to feed
some grain in season, than it docs to
let the sheep lose flesh and get poor,
and then spend our time in nursing
and doctoring them. 1 think there is
a proverb which is, that good food is
cheaper than doctors. Without pur
suing this subject, further, I repeat
that good shctip husbandry eoits less
than poor, and pays threefold better.
Ai flock of sheep require but little
care during the Summer months,
except that they hav". plenty of good
feed und salt, and arc seen to that
none of them are sick or diseased. The
principal work to he done in this
season is to raise a suitable quantity
of root, &c, and cut in the proper
season, and cure well, and store the
necessary supply of hay ami grain.
lvir*i~r ..applies, and pumpkins arc
necessary, to some extent, for the
sheep in Winter, not only on account
of the nourishment they centum, but
to supply the lack of green .'bod, and
to keep the. sheep in a healthy con
dition.
The cutling of the hay in proper
season, and curing well, and storing
the same, is one of the essential points
of good sheep husbandry. If, from
any cause, we fail to do this, our sheep
the. next Spring arc poor anJ weak,
and we have bad luck in raising
lambs, the sole cause id which is, that
the slieep during the Winter have
been rating poor hay, and vainly en
deavoring to obtain from the same
their necessary amount of nourish
ment which the haydid not contain.
Coarse and rank timothy makes fair
slieep hay, if it is cut a few days be
fore it begins to blossom, and is well
eniod.
Nearly all kinds of low lands and
swamp hay tire good sheep hay, if cut
in season and well cured. Sheep
prefer a variety of good hay, instead
of being confined to one kind only.
Lai libs should be weaned when they
arc four months old, ami turned into
good feed. Jf they are fed daily, in
addition to good grass and hay, one
pint of oats and shorts apiece, until
they arc turned out to grass next
Spring, they will have a good start
toward making a sheep with a good
constitution. 1 believe it to bo a fact,
if wo would raise sheep with good
constitutions, we must supply them
liberally during their growth with
that kind of- food that will furnish
them w ith the necessary amount of
hone, muscle and strength.
Sheep, and lambs in particular,
should be housed during cold storms
in the Kali and he fed with hay,
which they should learn to cat before
they are entirely deprived of grass.
All kinds of sheep, and breeding
ewes in particular, should come to the
barn in good condition in the Kail.
This is necessary in older that they
may be able to well develop their
lambs. All kinds of sheep should be
allowed to run out upon the ground
daily in the late Kali and early
AVinter, as long as tho ground is bare.
This is necessary for their exercise,
which promotes health, strength and
vigor. A reasonable amount of excr
eise is necessary for sheen during the
entire Winter and Spring. Sulphur
and aslua should he fed to sheep with
their salt during the Winter. Sulphur
is health)' for llie sheep, and is ollen
sivc to vermin.
Ashes arc also healthy and are es
sential for hreeding ewes. I presume
that some of you have seen Jambs
? lint when they were first dropped
were strong, their dams gave a good
? plan lily of milk, yet , in a few days,
the. lambs would begin to droop and
finally die. If you were to open the
stomachs of such lambs, in some cases
you would find them packed and dis
tended with hard curds, which wcte j
the cause of their dentil. The remedy
for this is to feed the breeding ewes
with some kind of* a mild alkali, lik<
ashes, for some time previous to their
being d roppedi
Sheep should be turned out upon
tho ground daily, as soon as iheiv is
a spot bare that is large enough for
them to stand upon, for the air in
their pens ami stables is generally im
pure, and no amount of good feed
will supply the buk of good air and
exercise.
There are various diseases which
sheep and lambs sometimes have, and
troubles to encounter in breeding
sheep. There arc causes for all these,
[j should be one of the studies of the
sheep breeder to Icain what thoiC
causes arc and how to avoid them;
when wc do that we shall have good
luck in shci3p husbandry'.
K eping Stock Clean.
It ought to be the duty of the stock
man to see that all cattle that arc
kept constantly tied up should receive
a thorough brushing daily. Stock
that are accustomed to have their
heads tied get very dirty a boat the
neck and shoulders unless they re
ceive a careful "grooming." Cleanli
ness is very esscuti d for^Catllo always
under cover, not only because diense
is thereby prevented from making its
inroads, I ul also because stock thrive
better, ami reach maturity a great
deal quicker, when carefully tended,
than when they are not. Cattle kept
in hnmmels or loose boxes do not,
perhaps, require so much attention as I
those wdiosc heads arc tied to the.
stall, as they can with freedom lick
themselves, but they should not be
neglected on that account; an 1 the j
careful stock fanner will do well to
see that his stockman gives them pro
per attention. It frequently happens,
however, that cattle do be com 2 very
dirty about the body?whether from
neglect, or a natural predisposition to
get dirty, it is uncccssary to consider.
In such cases, a good remedy is to ap
ply to the affected parts a mixture of
fish oil and flour of sulphur, in the
proportion of four ounces of sulphur
to a quart of oil. This mixture should
bo vigorously rubbed into the body,
and about three days after!this ha*
been done, the affected parts must re
ceive a good washing with soft soap
and warm water. The oil and sul
phur may be applied once more in
the same manner as before, the mix
ture being made a little stronger
should there be an observable im
provement from the first washing;
This mixture applied twice generally
suffices to effect a complete euro of tho
ailment.? London hive Stock Journal,
A Young Man in Love.
A young man not long since ap
proached us and complained of being
sorely alllictcd with that disease called
love, and wanted advice as to tho
means of relief. Seeing his forlorn
ondition, and being satisfied, of bis
lack of courage to "pop the question,"
we were at a loss to advise him as to
the proper means of relief. Happen
ing to remember, however, the follow
ing which wc saw floating round some
years ago wc suggested that he try
the remedy. Ho was highly elated
and asked that we publish the epistle,
in tho hope that it might reach the
object of his adorations. In our
sympathies for the young man wo
agreed to acoonunodatc him, and hope
hejuay not be disappointed. Here's
