Valuable Ijcriuse. k 4r' cj To Cuke a Bohse of Blind Stag gers.—Mr. J. W. Cross. a farmer o( Dooly county, gives us tho fol lowing recipe fortlio cure of horses afflicted with blind staggers. First inject vinegar and black pepper freely into the nostrils. Se cond, take a peicc of woolen cloth, thoroughly w r et it with spirits of turpentine, cover it with another piece of dry cloth, and place both pieces over tho eyes of the horse aud apply a hot iron, i bird, drench with strong red pepper tea, Two bottles of this tea, after the. oth er applications, have never failed to effect a perfect cure. — Ilawkins mile Dispatch. It is all very well,perhaps toad vise people to can sweet corn, for the experience may be valuable in sweetening their tempers, but the corn will sour. If it is well done it will look beautifully white, and be sweet (if you add sugar enough preparing it for the table); but re quires so much boiling, and to be canned so quickly and so hot, that except in factories, people are apt to hare bad luck with it. The ; g to do is to shave and scrape the corn from the cobbs daily du ring the season of surplus sweet corn, to dry this at first on sheets of tin in the sun then on sheets on which it can be moved and mixed frequently. In hot dry weather the corn will dry enough in the sun, but should the weather come on moist or rainy, it must bo brought into the house and dried slowly in the stove oven, the door being open, upon bricks over the stove, or in any sim alar safe place. It must not scorch or lie In masses so that it will ferment. It is no “trick” to do this well, and "it is sweeter and better, but not so nice looking as the canned. It is on account of the danger of having large masses at once when rainy weather comes on, that we advise drying some daily. When dry, preserve it in bags 1 ung up away from mice.— N. Y.

IT would require the scope of quite a large volume to contain the good things^ that are said about the Morning News by its cqntempo raries of the Southern Press. It is almost daily referred to as the “THE BEST PAPER IN THE SOUTH,” ‘the leading Georgia daily,” etc , and it is gen - erally conceded to be in all respects a model Southern newspaper. This is the fame that the Morning News covets, and no pains will be spared hereafter to make it still worthier of the confidence nnd patronage of the people of Georgia and Florida. The am ple resources of the establishment will he devo ted to the improvement of the paper in respect to its already large facilities for gathering the current news of the day, and its staff of special correspondents has been reorganized with a view to meeting every possible contingency tlat may arise. Although the Morning News has little or no competition within the field of its circulation, nevertheless no effort will be considered too ex pensive that gives the EARLIEST AND FRESHFST information to its readers. In this respect tlier will ho no relaxation of the endeavor to keep b fa r ahead of all its contemporaries. The features that have rendered tho pnper so popular will be maintained. The editorial de partment will be conducted with the same digni fied thoughtfulness, con ervative vigor, and earnest Devotion H Principle that have always characterized it. The racy reliability cf the local, and the accuracy and completeness of the commercial departmer t will be kept at. the old standard, and im provements will he made wherever they are suggesicd by experience. The Mornii g Nows is the only Savannah paper that publishes the Associated Press dispa'ches and ihe telegraphic market re ports nuthorized by ihe Commercial Bureau of New York City. In addition to this the local market reports will be full and reli ble, and will be accompanied by such comment as will enable the business men of Georgia and Florida to form estimates as accurate and as intelligent ns if they were in the city.
