"Hoe your own row I"
*4 good many workers
I'vu known in my time—
Some builders of nouses.
Some builders of rhyme :
A ltd they that were prospered,
Were prospered, I know,
By the intent and meaning of
"Hoe your own row !’’
I’ve known, too. a goodtnvny
Idlers who said
I’ve a right to my living,
The world owes me bread I
A right ! lazy lubber !
A thousand times No 1
’Tis his, and his only,
Who hoes his own row

There ate sacred drops,
'That do not tise^
Quick, gushing; to the eyes ;
But oozing inward-.
Silent, daik and chill.
Like some cavernous rill

Turning into stone,
All il falls upon.

bile, »..d lo reduce luxation, wur9 replied
upon favorably.
The Fifteenth Amendment bill was con
sidered.
Mr. Hamilton, of Maryland, said it Would
partially repeal all restric'ive laws*
and that rs it passed no one would be safe iii
taking to a negro before An election, be
cause he would have the right, upon his
unsupported affidavit* to cause the arrest
ot any man he might charge wiih supposed
interference with his rights.
Mr. Schurz admitted the truth of the
Democratic charge that his parly had
revolution z -d the Constitution by the pas
sage of the Fifteenth and other amendment*
and argued that tlu'cliauge in Govei hiim-iiU
al policy accrued by war, and whs a revo
lution that secured individual light* iu the
Slates.
Mr Pool took the position that Congress
could COnsli'utionally enter a Mate and deal
directly with ihe rights of electors* and that
prerogaticely the rights of citizenship could
not safely be left to the capiice of the
States.
Mr. HnwaVd skid that the fights of the
negro to vote ffe the Soutf. would, for half
celilUry yet, bfe the only Safeguaid for
peace and national authority, If the Kehe|
leaders ever cotae iuto powbr again, the
war would ha'vifc to be filtight over. The
people of the 9imth had lost ilieif property
and their spirit, but for five g» u
emtiotis yel to ci>ine they would not lose
Their unfiiUbhable hatred of Northern so
ciety and government. Iu case of foreign
war, we would see a disposition at the
Sbuth to join the ViYemy so as to put down
the gov« rnlient 1 hey so hated. He would
never agree to universal amnesty, fob then
Jtflersoh Davis and other ling leaders would
borne back tV> rehatch and revivify the lost
cause. Personal pride would never allow
him to see his name on the same list oj
yeas and nays with peijufed traitors and
enemies of'fctS country. [How about

The Judiciary Committee presented a re
port on their inquiry as to the corrupt
means used to influence Senators on the
Georgia bill. The testimony is volumin

Economy in a Family —-There is nothing
which goes so far towards placing young
people beyond the reach of poverty as
econrihy iii the Hiantigeinent m tiieit* domes*
tic affairs; It matters not whether a man
furnishes little or much f*hr his family, i!
there is a cutitihttfiMeakage in his Ui clten
or in the parlor, it all runs away, he know*
pot hotv; and that dermtii waste cries ui<»ie,
like the horse-leech’s daughter, until he
that provided lias no more to give. It is
the husband's duty to bring into the
house, and It is tile duty of his wile to see
that none goes wrongfully out of it —not
the least article, iibw* vet unimportant in
itself, for it establishes a precedent ; nor
under any pretence, for it opens the dooi
ter ruin to sta'k in, and he seldom le.i' ts
an opportunity unimproved. A man get*
a wife to look alter his affairs, and to assist
him in bis journey through life ; to educate
and piepaie his children for a proper sta
tion in life, and rot dissipate his pioperty.

Thk Crkat Flii.'c in VihGINU. We have to
tecord another public calamity in Virginia
The beautiful town of Fiucastle; in Bote
tourt county, has been laid in ashes. The
fir!?-fiend Uid his consuming hand on ii
Friday night, until tieaily the entire town
was swept from existence. The loss is a
dreadful one. Between thirty and forty
families are rendered homeless by this felt
blow, and are* many of them, in a sad state
of destitutioni The loss, it is estimated,
will approximate, if it does not excied
s3oo 000. On this there iVas an insurance
of not more than $14,000 or $15,000. Thie
is, indeed, a terrible loss to fall on so Small

VALU\BLE recipes.
For FicklinG Beef—Eight pounds salt,
one anti a half pounds sugar, four ounces
saltpetre, four gallons water. Boil togeth*
or until it gives off no siuim, and cool. Cut
the beef into suitable peices for

llow To Freshen Salt Fisfl, —Mmy per
sons who are in the habit off peahen ing
mackerel or other salt fish, never dream
that there is a right and a wrong way to
do it. Any person who has seen the pro
cess of evaporation going on at the sal 1
works, knows that lh«* salt falls to the hot
tom. Just so it is in the pan where yout
mackerel or whitt fish lit s soaking ; and, as
it lays with the skin side down, the sal 1
will fall to the skin and there remain vvhetr
if placed with the fl< sTi side down,film salt
fails to tli3 bott< in of the pan, and the fiah
comes out freshened us it should be.
Green Tomato Sauce. —One peck of green
tomatoes, sliced thin, one quart of vinegar,
three tea cups mustard, (as mixed for table
tme.) three quarters lb. of stlgai, one and a
half tablespooneful of salt, one of black
peppor, one of allspice, one ofcloves, one ot

cook to a mush and add one pint of vinegar
before finishing off.
