The following is the statement made by Troy Dye. tlie Sacramento murderer. In court during his trial: Last may he was sick half of each day. Fora long time lie had an extra severe pain; it aeerned as if something rose in his skull, and it made him cry out; then if he would see an object at a certain distance it would appear double, and that defect still remains. He had confusion of idea*. He is now 35 years of age; enlisted in the federal army at 17: was in tlie sixth Kansas altout seven months, and was transferred to tlie fourth Kansas. He can hear very little out of tlie right ear; the sight of hts right eye is not affected, but t lie re is something wrong about it; cannot tell exactly vhat. He was elected in 1876 public administrator, and made an active campaign. “ KIM.KK8 ”—THE CRIME SCOGEffTED. Haymond asked: *• When did any first suggest to you anything about having ‘killers?*" Objected to as assuming a state of facts not proven. Haymond said he could show that others than Lawton and Anderson sugr*»ted but he wanted to consult with the sheriff first as to whether the disciur ure of the names would teud to defeat the end* of jus tice. J Haymond—When were • killers’’ first suggested to you seriously? Witness—I cannot say, as it was talked e so much. Everyone on the street \vou._ ask: “W hen are you going tosend out your killers?* It was first suggested, pmhahiv. about two weeks after the election, by a man who wa* in earnest, apparently. Torn Ijiw- ton suggested it to witness In May last, when he and Tom first went down the river to his brother's. Lawton often talked of it. Witnewj finally assented. It wa-* about the 1st of June when these proposition* were made seriously. They caine from a man in very high standing in this communitv. \\ it ness replied to him he wanted to come out of office white. The man never >poke of it again. He wax in earnest. Then an other party known to the sheriff spoke to him. He had complained to the man of the hard times, and the office paid nothing. The it* *»M »t would pay if he only knew how- use it, and he asked him what he meant, d said that when things came his way he’d know how to exercise his office. The man replied: “Why don't yon have some of these old rich fellows croaked?” I thought he said choked. I was always raised h nest and never had murder in my heart- I wa* always kind-hearted. Men would often ask jocularly, about my ‘*killcrs” being out. TIIE IDE.% or CRIME BECOMING FIXED. I began to ponder on the matter, and it grew into my mind till I could think of noth ing else, as I might say. I could not sav what my conduct was to |teople—they caii sav bent; but I remember my old friend* a-king what had conic over me, why I moped and looked so. Mr. A hardt, an old frieiul, told a friend of his that witness was acting strange to him. lie told the friend he wa* not aware of it. Who was the party who suggested to »u to kill (Msqile? Haymond advised witness not to answer, because the jmny wa* known to the sheriff, and the end of public justice required that the name should he withheld. The court thought the name had better not be given. Witness resumed: The man suggested a particular jx-r-on to be killed—«Mis* W&sli- bum. At tlmt time witness bad never thought of committing any criminal offense, and spurned the idea. 1 cannot say why I did not go to the sheriff and district attor ney and tell them of the offer. I ought to aboutk il ling- lie came to my saloon man with him. After a while lie pointed le out ami said, “This is the public udinin- 'trator; he can only make anything out of the office by having a'killcr.'* I feel a* if lid take a job;*l feel as if I’d kill any one for $1U0. Odell in the morning is going to stop meat." The other mail asked, "How do vou ]iav killers’?” I said, “On the share.” Next «lay Anderson came in and said: “I came near giving you a job; I saw an old fellow on L street; he is rich; 1 saw him ng from the show; I stop|ied in his gateway with a bur of iron, and wa* going to knock him down, but two men were with him.” I told Anderson that that would never do. Anderson said the man had money and no relatives; that wa* old man Jackson. I am telling the truth: may God never let me leave this chair if I am not; I've no hard feelings agatnat Anderson; no dcsir* to put any thing ou him untrue. It must have lm in May, and. according to my brother's testimony, May 5, that I yielded. Jackson was in niy sob sin one night; did not tell Anderson to kill him; did not send Anderson to follow him to the post-office and kill him; never told Anderson or anyone to poison Jackson; do not know that Anderson orC’iarKwent to do it. Anderson told me he and Uwton went to Jackson to poison him.

Mr. Pope . Willards, and like most men from the west, is full of theories and things. The Post, which hunger*th after information, put its siphon into Mr. Spear's inner consciousness last evening, with tlie following effect: “What is the *Ohio idea’ of which the country has heard so much of late?” “If you read the Enquirer, a* all good citizens should, yon would have no occasion to-ask the question,” replied Mr. Spear, with lofty dignity. “Bui I. in common with about thirty- nine million nine hundred and ninety tlioosand citizens of the republic, do not read that interesting sheet, not for lack of interest, but for lack of time, hence must confess to ignorance on the point present- ed.” “The ‘Ohio idea.* in my opinion, upon the currency question to^dav is, that the right to make money properly inheres the government alone; that means no banks of issue." “Would you have no banks?" “Yes, banks for banking.” “What do you mean by that?" “That the right to do a banking bud: and the right to make money, are widely different thing*. The first-named the banks alone should do, mud the latter the govern ment alone should do.” “Then I am to understand,” said the hie financial reporter of the Post, “that the next canqsiigu in Ohio will be a war on the national hanks? t speak for the democratic party of Ohio, but I think the fight will he made a government issue that shall be a full ►mise to receive, and against all hanks of Boil down your proposition,” said the Poet’s sagaciousyoung man. “I will; it Is this: that the government i the United States shall make all of the money made in this country/* “How*” “V it?* The Post feloniously and false!v replied it didn’t know, in order io give the Enquirer —an some needed confidence. ‘Til tell you then.” said the editor of the west. “They made money, secured bv gov ernment credit at last, and redeemable in government credit at first, and receive a pre mium of about $15,000,000 a year for doing “But what have you to say of the success of resumption?’ Drawinghimsclf^ipand wrappinghix toga about his manly form, the able editor snid: “There is no resumption; there is not even redemption; it is only equalization.” ’Do you favor Sam. Cary fiat foolery?’ ‘It is the redemption that Is ‘fiat/ more than the greenback." “What do you mean by that?” said the Post. “That the national banks have put $300,- 000,000 in coin, with $322,000,000 of circula tion, and the government has proltablv much less than $150.<0),000 of com availa ble with which to redeem $317,000,000 of irculation. Besides these two immense unis, there are $2,000,000,000 of debits in the hanks of tlie country, and these twenty- six hundred and seventy millions of proiii- ise-to-pay are at !a*t redeemable in these $130,000,000, or thereabouts, of coin. 1 call that fiat resumption.” said Mr. S|»ear, with a gush of sareaxtn that would have lit'erlv overwhelmed long John Sherman if lie could have heard it. “Is your ‘idee’ democratic?’ “The democratic party is the historic foe of special privilege, ami the right to make money is tlie most enormous of all special privileges. Over yonder is the (latent of fice. It is full of testimony that the right to make a machine is a monopoly, ami the government says that after a time the right to make that machine shall be free to all. The right to make a hook is a monopoly, and the government makes copyright laws; but presently that right becomes free to all, such is the prejudice against monopolies. A man has no monopoly of the product of his own brain. Tlie interest on intellect ceases in a few years; the interest on money never ceases. The right to make money iV a xnecial privilege, swallowing all others, ami should belong to all the people, to the nation.” “You would give this power to congress?* “Congress ha* always liad it. If the (tower rer money does not rest with congress, it rests nowhere, and this is almost the lan guage of the supreme court.” “Wouldn’t your government money be rather unstable in value?’ “Make it a full promise to receive by tlie government, with rational limits upon its »lume, and no liohlcr of a greenback note »nld Ion® a dollar while the republic Grapta—Fliram—Stack— Sheep—8a gu—Orchard— The Garden—Pe ^ eh Tresa—Bad Lack-Sheep Lick*—Large Hog*—Seed Gora—Vest Ealxiag—Faraeri’ Homes.

One morning, after Lawton FLOWER*. Ol 1 Iznak Walton was doubtless good au thority on all subjects pertaining to fish, but we cannot subscribe to his sentiment that “flowers are too pleasant to be looked on except on holidays." We know nothing more cheerful or attractive about the coun try home than flowers, ami why not have and look upon their refining lovelini the year 'round? To be looked upon on holidays alone? What nonsense. Whether worn in the hair, worn on the garment*, decking the brow of the bride, or sprinkled over the grave, what is there sweeter, pret tier or more refining? Flowers require some trouble and care, yet their cultivation fully repays the trouble. It is a regret in going into the country to see so few flowers culti vated; what a pleasant occupation to the family to look after them; how gteatly they would add to the beauty of the country home, causing it to be a more desirable place to live. FARMERS’ HOMES. If farmers would take pains and care, and bestow labor on their farms, like some j*eo- ple do their homes in Atlanta, liow much more profitable would they find it, how nuu‘h happier would they be; then, too, tlieir sons and daughters would he better satisfied in the country. Why not give vour farm the very best cultivation? Why be satisfied with inferior work? Why use worthless tools, or let everything naive along in a slovenly manner? It is very gen erally the case that if a light crop is raised, ami that on a non-paying hasis, the farmer is to blame. If his lots and fields present a disorderly apficarance, he alone is responsi ble. If his house and yard are neglected, if his fencing is out of fix. if mud ami tilth surround hi* out-buildings, the fault is liis. There are many farmers in Georgia whose fields are specimens of neatness, whose cat tle and hogs and mules look sleek and well cared for, whose houses have shade trees about them , and the yards around them are jomnied with flower-beds. Yet how many such places are there? Farms should lie carried on not only on a paying basis, hut should also be made pleasant and attractive. This would elevate the business. Domestic influences would make tlie farmers’ sons and daughters satisfied with home, and the turned his hogs on his chufa crop the 16tli of last August, and they began improving Th* YtUty of Volga Under the Pestilence—One- and fattening at once. He has cultivated the chufa for fifteen yean, and says that it is the very thing for farmers who desire to raise their own meat. The chufa does not Injure land, can be eradicated when de sired, and will grow upon the poorest soil. STOCK. # A farmer remarked to us a day or two since that the weather had been so very cold liis horses, cows and hogs were not doing well. Looking into the matter, we found that he was perhaps more to blame than the stock, for he had started them out badly prepared for cold weather. He keeps his riding horse—this animal has a good stable, is well-fed and attended to—entered the winter in good flesh, conse quently is “doing well." and every day continues to improve. The other horses, stock-hogs and cattle were in a weak condition and low in flesh early in the winter, consequently are not doing well. The poor cow that droops and shivers in the fence comers doubtless casts an envious eye at the fat and hearty one who tosses her head and flies around in the exuberance of strength bidding defiance to our unusually cold mornings. If stock are expected to do well, and be protected from chilly weather and piercing storms, they must have health and fat as well as gooll shelters and a sufficiency of good food and water. SHEEP. We have two or three letters asking in- formatien about sheep. The back numbers of The Constitution contain articles which pretty much answer the questions asked. Sheep are unquestionably an inqiortant adjunct of farm economy. There is no ani mal on the farm that excels them in distrih- ut ingan excellent fertilizing material. They more than pay expenses in enriching the land. There is no healthier or better'food than good mutton; at the same time it i cheaper meat than pork. Get good com tuoi ewes, grade them, keep an eye on them, giv. them shade, shelter, water and pasture, and it will pay the farmer to keep them. Wool is a staple article—stands side by side with cotton, sugar, tobacco, coni and wheat. It will sell anywhere, and at any month in the year. There is no great trouble or care or ex pense in sheep culture, while at the time it is an important diversity of fa products. Regret that it is so.
