The Hour or Peril.
If there is any counsel which wa would
impress upon ihe people, it is that of
caimuess and long suffering in our evils,
which are ot danger, but not of extremi
ty
There is a remedy of peace which will
call for no interposition of violence or
force. The situation, clouded us it is in
uncertainty, has each day a perceptible
lifting of the obscurity.
While we hear the braggadocio of Zach
Chandler and the feeble folly of Ferry,
they need give no alarm. There are
Senators of weight of character and ca
pacity who have so far made ! sign.
They represent States that cannot silent
ly and without effort drift to confusion.
The officeholders, imposing in numbers,
arc not yet quite in the majority. Public
opinion moves slowly, but steadily and
with power. We have no desire for any
explosive demonstrations in spasms. We
do not need, on the contrary we deprecate,
anv paroxysmal action.
The right to peaceably’ assemble in con
ventions and public assemblages is not yet
impaired. The tree expressions of the
press are, so far, untrammelled.
The thought of war, the perspective of
riot and Woodshed, are, to those who
have passed through the late baptism of
fire, only horrible to the contemplation.
We would not teach “bloody instruc
tions.” Let those who only breathe the
breath of agitation and ride upon the
storm deport themselves to Mexico or emi
grate to the South America Andes, where
they can be regaled with a revolution at
every change of the moon, and count
Presidents with the enumeration of caleiv
dar months.
Leave all outbreak and ebullition to the
bully and the blackguard, whether he
fulminates in the pot houses or the depart
ments at Washington, which are open for
the occupancy alike of the gentleman and
statesman or the comer loafer and caucus
bummer. We trust it is but a small min
ority who would desire or even permit the
inauguration of a Chief Magistrate counted
in by bold and unquestionable fraud.
There will be no revolutionary act by the
House of Representatives. —Jv. Y. Sun.
Wnstx Christmas Comes on Mon
day. day falls on a Mon
day hhis year. It fell on a Monday
alsQ/in 1865, and on that occasion the
following was unearthed from, it was
stfeted. the Harleian MSS., No. 2252,
r °Jlio 153-4:
111 Christmas day on Monday be,
•f A great winter that year you'll see,
And full of winds both loud and shrill.
. But in summer, truth to tell,
High winds shall ther<*be, and strong,
Full of tempests, lasting long;
Wnile battles they shall multiply.
And great plenty of beasts shall die.
They that he born that day, I ween.
They shall be strong each one and keen ;
Ho shall be found that stealeth aught;
Tho' thou be sick, thou dtest not.
The year 1866 was the year of the
Au3tro-Prussian war, a year of disas
trous gales, and a year of the cattle
plague. Again in 1871 Christmas day
fell on a Monday; the twelvemonth
following that day saw us with cattle
plague in the north and some great
storms-but as to "battles,” we must
go back a few months in 1871 for the
capitulation of Paris and the conflict
with the Commune. We have now a
Monday Christmas for the third time
within a dozen years.— London limen.
What Came of Setting a Cat’s Tail
on Fire. —Several days since, ala negro
farmer's house near Crawforilville, three
of his children, whom he and his wife
left at home while they went out on the
farm, took the old Tom Cat and tieingbits
of paper to its tail, set it on tire. Thomas
gyrated around the premises at a pretty
lively rate with his pyrotechnic display,
and at last took refuge in the corn and
fodder house on the Tot. Pretty soon a
blaze, equal to a dozen the cat had made,
was seen issuing, and when an investiga
tion Bad been gone into it wsr found that
the poor darkle had lost all Ills corn,
fodder, shuck*, etc., beside* a cow and
a considerable quantity of other planta
tion stores. S’cat.— Augusta Conxtitu
tionaliat.
CacgAS.— The Chula interest is now run
ning high again—everybody wants to plant
Chufas next year. We are glad of it.
That the Cbufa ie a success as a hog feed
there can now be no shadow of doubt. Per
sons who have given it a thorough test are
united in the opinion, so far as we have
beard, that good pork can be made of Chu
fas at from three to five cents per pound
Not a tew have published it as their opinion
that one acre in Chufas, on good land in the
South will make more pork than three acres
of good’land in corn at the North. If all
this is so, then why do we not make arrange
ments at once to move our smoke houses
home—we who all our lives have had them
away up somewhere in llliuois, lowa or
Ohio’
The notion prevailing in some localities
to the effect that Chufas are a pest is non
sense. We have grown the crop on our
place for several years and find it no more
a pest than corn or oats. —Mobile Reg.
Capt. Boytoh, the man with a swimming
apparatus, has been for a long time unheard
of. His latest feat was a recent attempt to
swim down the river Po, from Turin to
Venice, a distance requiring from seven to
eight days. After eighty-six hours in the
water fatigue induced a fever, which necssi
tated his landing and relinquishing the at
tempt.
—A Frenchman proposes to reach the
North Pole by means of a balloon. All
other methods of travelling in the Arctic
regions failinS, recourse, he says, must be
had to aerostation. Capt. Nares, he main
tains, might have reached the pole in a few
hours had he been provided with aerostic
appliances.
A Paomaiso Youth of only seven sum
mers, who had been accused of not always
telling the truth, cross-examined his
father. “Father, did you use to lie when
you were a boy?' 1 “No, my son, 1 said the
paternal, who evidently did not recall the
past with any distinctness. “Nor mother,
either?” persisted the young lawyer. “No;
but why?” “Oh, because 1 don’t see how
two people who never told a lie could have
a boy that tells as many as I do.”
• m
The Christian Index sensibly says There
should be a return to more simple, more
honest ways of living, on the part of all.
It should de deemed dishonorable to live
beyond one’s means; no man should be en
couraged to spend a few feverish years in
luxury at the risk of breaking down and
makings dishonorable ending. The age is
thirsty for luxuries. The very paupers of
our cities scorn the patched garments and
simple fare which once satisfied the well
to-do; the young clerk must live in a house
about as luxuriously furnished as his em
ployer’s; the servants rival their mistress in
in the costliness and elaborateness of their
attire; the young couple who begin a home
must have it as richly decorated as that of
those who have laboied for years. In a
word, there is an utter unwillingness on the
part of many to be content with simple
surroundings.
A han who was being examined for a
school teacher in Maine, after stumbling
through some simple arithmetical prblem,
was asked where Boston is. He answered:
“I know all about it, probably just as well
as you do; have heard of the place several
times, but can’t, somehow or other, seem to
locate it.” With a view to helping him
out, the Committeeman said: “It is the cap
ital of some State, is it not? ' “Yes, I be
lieve it is." What State?” “Well, 1 know
probably as well as you do what State
Boston is the capital of, but you see I
haven’t got the flow of language to express
it.”

The following is an extract from a description, published in the New York Tribune, by the wel
known agriculturist, Solon Robinson: *
All the farmers were of the “well to do" sort, and some of them, who have turned their attention
to fruits and market gardening, have grown rich. The soil is loam, varying from sandy to clayey,
and surface gently undulating, intersected with small streams and occasional wet meadows, in
which deposits oi peat or muck are stored, sufficient to fertilize the whole upland surface, after it
has been exhausted of its natural fertility.
It is certainly one of the moat extensive fertile tracts, iu au almost level position, and suitable
condition for pleasant farming, that wo know of this side of the Western prairies. We found some
of the oldest farms apparently juat aa profitably productive as when first cleared of forest fifty or a
hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discover the cause of this continued fertility. The whole country is a
marine deposit, and all through tho aoll we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally in
tho form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertia
ry formation; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted
form, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by such plants as the farmer desires to
cultivate.

THE SUN.
1877. NEW YORK. 1877.
The different editions of Thk Sun during the
next year will be the sains as during the year
that has just passed. Ths daily edition will on
week days be a sheet of four pages, and on bun
days a sheet of eight pages, or 56 broad columns;
while the weakly edition will be a sheet of eight
pages of the same dimensions and character that
are already familiar to our friends.
The Bum will continue to bs the strenuous ad
vocate of reform and retrenchment, and of the
substitution of statesmanship, wisdom j and
integrity for hollow pretence, imbecility and
fraud in the administration of public affairs. It
will contend for the government of the people
by the people and for the people, as opposed to
government by frauds in the ballot-box and in
the counting of votes, enforced by military vio
lence. It will endeavor to supply its readers—a
body not now iar from a million souls—with the
most careful, complete and trustworthy accounts
of current events, and will employ for this pur
pose a numerous and carefully selected staff of
reporters and correspondents. Its reports from
Washington, especially, will be fall, accurate and
fearless; and it will doubtless continue to de
serve and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive
by plundering the Treasury or by usurping what
the law doe* not give them, while it will endeavor
to merit the confidence of the public by defend
ing the rights of the people against the encroach
ments of unjustified power.
The price of ths Daily Sun will be 55 cents a
month or $6.60 a year, post-paid, or with ths
Sunday edition $7.70 a year.
The Sunday edition alone, eight pages, $1.20 a
year, post-paid.
The Weekly Sum, eight pages of 55 broad eol
umns, will be furnished during 1877 at the rate
Of $1 a year, post-paid.
The benefit of this large reduction from the
previous rate for the Weekly can be enjoyed by
individual subscribers without the necessity of
making up clubs. At the same time, if any of
our friends choose to aid in extending our circu
lation, we shall be grateful to them, and every
such person who sends us ten or more subscrib
ers from one place will be antitled to one copy ©f
the paper for himself without charge. At one
dollar a year, postage paid, the expenses of paper
and printing are barely repaid; and, considering
the siee of the sheet and the quality of its con
tents, we are confident the people will consider
The Weekly Bus the cheapest newspaper pub
lished in the world, Ihd wo trnst also or e of the
very best.

The Xauthine is the only hair dressing I have
ever used which has removed the dandruff from
th* scalp and made my hair soft and pliable. It
has also restored my hair to its natural color; and
! by occasionally using it as a hair dressing, I have
uo doubt it will preserve the color.
