“ Irish ” Voters.
The Connecticut Catholic has recently been
much improved in general appearance. - Mr.
J. M. Tobin has become the business mana-
ger, and pt omises to pay careful attention to
business details. _ ,
In the issued the 13th inst., is an article on
“ The Political Treatixicnt-of the , Irish," the
close of which we give below, and will be
found of very general interest :—
“ We rejoice to see the Union arrayed in
opposition to this indiscriminate slau hter
of candidates bearinglrish names. The gnt'tm
Ia proverbially fair and hOnest in its treatment
of all classeskandit depreciateapetty tyran-
ny in this form; In concluding 'its article it
says: “ In a great measure the Irish voters
are to blame for this insulting treatment.
They are too closely. allied to one party, and
have home without much protest the ‘ most
shameful treatment, : If they would study
their Own' interest'smore, and refuse to fol-
low blindly the dictates of party, they would
soon become such a powerful factor in poli-
ties that political leaders. would be careful
about insulting'th‘e‘m.” This is good :advice
and we commendit to the careful consider-
ation of the Irish voters in Connecticut. Let
them cast off the ties of blind submission to
party leaders, assert their independence and
by sodoing they willbest snburve their in-
terests individuallyand collectively. Politi
ticsl demagogues andgwirelpullers have fre-
quently boasted-that they can drive the mass
of Iris v'otersto the..polla and make them
vote the Democratic: ticket every‘ time. Irish-
man shouldshow'thenrthat this boastisfalse;
they should turn a deaf ear to the siren song
of these Individuals, and" show.‘ them 'that' they
value at its real wOrche prerogative of elec-
tive franchise. WeL'wishaniOst earnestly that
the Irish veters would once make 'Ihes'e ,fel-
lows feel, their political ,‘infiu'e'nce, it "
think it‘wo'uld secure better political :_ at-

$50,000 more in ninety days, but the Con-

months’ delay. The Watson estate yielded
$1,025,000, but the city got only $590,435 44.

gregating $690,000, was $226,711 34. Swecny

The English succeeded in getting permis-
sion of the thdive of Egypt to remove to
London the Alexandrina Obelisk, which
New school boy has read of, known as
“Cleopatra's Needle.” It is now on its way
to England, and will be set up in Trafalgar
S lunrc. Not to bebchiudllund, an American
merchant, who withholds his name, persuad-
ed the Khedive to permit another one to be
brought to New York, and he donated the
cost of bringing it,—$100,000. The papers
are all drawn, and as soon as steam can do it.
an obelisk that Moses and Aaron looked upon
will be set up in the youngest of the great
cities of the world. Who the donor is, no
one knows, but time will reveal the secret.
It was a generous act. ’
ANOTIIEP. STRIKE.
This time it, is the cigar makers. Five
thousand of them and perhaps justly so,
have quit work, and are trying to make the
strike general The notable feature in this
emute, is the fact that a woman is one. of the
Iet‘ldel‘s,nntl aprincipal one. Mary Ileisler,
a‘yonng Bohemian woman who has gained a
great deal of influence over the laborers of
the city by her fervitl oratory and advanced
communistic ideas,wus elected vice president
of the Central Association, and she at once
took position as its real head. The cigar
makers, who are largely foreigners,loOk upon
her as a second Joan of Arc, and they obey
her commands without question. ‘The ma-
jority of the cigar makers are the lowest
grade of Germans and Poles, who live in the
filthiest tenement houses, doing their work
there. They are underpaid and overworked,
for the reason that the trade is easily'learned.
and there is such a glut of workers that the
employers can get any amount of labor at
their own price. The employers are almost
all foreigners, and are merciless toward the
poor of their own nationalities. Titestrikers
now number five thousand, and it is probable
that the movement will go on till it will em-
.brace all the operatives in the city.
THE LAST SWINDLE.
The last swindle is a variation of an old one,
which.originated in this city, and is being
prosecuted from here. The modus operandi
is very simple. It, is a wire fence of a ' not
very new pattern, and which is not even pa-
tentable. The smooth-tongued agent shows
it to a farmer, and solicits him to become an
agent for it. As an inducement he is offered
‘fifty rods free, provided he will put it up
along the road where it can be seen and serve
as an advertisement. It is a handsome fence
and the farmer bites at the Offer. First he
gets fifty rods of fence for nothing. and if he
= does take an order, he gets a liberal commis-
sion. IIe signs what he supposes is an order
:for fifty rods, and immediately the wire is
shipped him. Then comes another agent
who demands pay for one hundred and fifty
rods. Indignant farmer explains that he was
to have fifty rods free. Agent says, “certain-
ly, but you have ordered one hundred and
fifty rods, and the one hundred rods you
must pay for at four cents a foo .” And he
produces an order with the farmer‘s signa-
ture, to that effect. The process is very sim-
ple. The farmer saw a contract for fifty rods,
but when he came to sign, that order was
slipped up, and he really put his name to an-
other one for onerhundred and fifty rods, that
lay just underneath. He is frightened into
giving his note for, say $200, which he ex.
pectcd to resist,'but he always finds that it.
has been discounted at the nearest bank, and
pays it. When will farmers learn that all
merely swindles, and that there is always a
out under the meal. '
POLITICAL.
The Dctnocraey of the city opposed to
Tammany are attempting to combine their
forces, so as to make a successful fight
against the hydra-headed monster. The Tri-
bune says, “they procrastinate.” and of
course they procrastinate, as Anti-Tam-
many always did and alw'ays will, for there
is nothing honest in the movement. The
Anti-Tammany democracy are just like the
other Tammany democracy, only they hap-
pen to be the ones left out in the cold. They
organize, not to beat_ Tammany, but to com-
pel a division of the spoils. If they are
weak, Tammany laughs at them;—if they
are strong, Tammany buys them up. This
has been the practice for years, and will be
to the end of time. John Kellyiwill look
them over, buy up such as he wants,and con—
temptuously kick the others. “Procrastina-
tion" in this case means waiting for a bid.
The republicans are doing little or nothing.
Neither in the Times or Tribune of Tuesday
was there a word relating to the State ticket.
Lorrsmns.
The police, guided by Anthony Comstock,
are making a raid on the lotteries. Comstock
succeeded in breaking up the sale of obscene
literature, but he will fail in his attack upon
the lotteries. The lottery people are rich
and well organized, and the business of gull-
ing fools is too profitable to be given up with-
out a fight. They have the best legal talent
in the city behind them, and then their
methods of doing business are so secret and
well guarded that it is difficult to convict
them. There are a larg) number of lotteries
that have their head-quarters in the city, and
all of them, with five exceptions, are bogus.
They take in vast sums of money, though.

FUNERALS as DISEASE Bananas—There
is good reason to believe that disease is occa-
sionally disseminated through the medium of
funerals. life have at least one fairly authcn
ticated instance in this country of diphtheria
being diffused broadcast through the crowd-
ing incident, occasionally, to the last ceremo-
ny. In America this question is beginning to
receive much attention,an_d several cases have
been reported of late, where the transmission
of the disease from the Corpse seemed highly
probable. The Sufifolk District Medical So-
ciety sent out 400 circulars to medical prac-
titioners, with a view to ascertain the optnion
of the profession on the alleged danger of
permitting public funerals of persons who
had died from diphtheria. Two hundred and
thirty-nine answers were received; of these
143 writers express a belief in the possilbe
danger of ' contagion at funerals; seventeen
believe that there is danger from funerals in
the houses of the dead, but none in the
churches; twenty-nine fancy that in the pres-
ent state of knowledge there is no justifica-
tion in prohibiting public funerals; and
eight record circumstances which oecurrcd in
their own experience confirmatory of ' the
proposition that peril may ensue; but the tes-
timony these latter advance is not'quite satis-
factory. The society after due consideratiori
recommend that funerals at the houses of
those who have died of diphtheria should be
private, owing to possible exposure to the
poison of the disease.—— .(mdon Lancet.

Sitting Around.
They were sitting around upon barrels and
chairs,
Discussing their own and their neighbor’s af-
fairs,
And the look of content that is seen on each
face
Seems to say “I have found my appropriate
place,”
Sitting Around.”
In bar rooms and grcc:rics calmly they sit
And serenely chew borrowed tobacco and
spit,
While the stories they tell and jokes that
they crack,
Show their hearts have grown hard and un-
doubtcdly black,
While sitting around.
The “sitter around" is a man of no means,
And his face wouldn’t pass for a quart of
white beans,
Yet he somehow or other contrives to exist
And is frequently seen Witha drink in his £83,
While sitting around.
The lonngere they toil not nor yet do thQY
spin,
Unless it be yarns while enjoying their gin.
They are people of leisure, yet often, ’tis true
They allude to the work they’re intending Id
0.
While sitting around.
They’ve a habit of talking of other men's
wives
As they WIliiIIe up sticks with their horn-
liandlcd knives—
They’re a scaly old set, and wherever you go
You will find them in groups orstrung round
Ill row,
Sitting around.

. “Every tree is a, feather in the earth's
cap, a plume In her bonnet, a tress
upon. her forehead; therefore plant

Six peek; of plump seed that has
not been broken in thrashing, and
that is free from weeds, is better than
two bushels taken at random from
the bin.
Lime cannot be spread as it comes
from the kiln, it must first be slacked.
Then the easiest and cheapest method
is to spread it with long handled
shovels either direct from the heaps,
or from the box of a low sled.
thcn frost has arrived, pasture is
no longer sufficient for horses. Frost-
ctl grass has but little nourishment.
Fresh corn stalks cut and mixed with
meal, or chopped oats and corn will
make excellent fodder, and be greatly
relished. '
Trotting horses that can make a
mile in 3 minutes are so plentiful now
that their value is determined more
by their color than by their speed.
Single horses able to make a mile in
3 minutes are frequently sold for
$250; well-matched homes are more
valuable. '
A born that has been knocked oil
' from a young calf will grow again.
The part lost is merely the extremity
of the horn. All that is necessary to
be done is to applya plaster of tar to
the part to keep the air from contact
with the sensitive surface until it has
become hardened.
An estate, situated near Burton-
upon-Trent, Derbyshire, England, com-
prising a residence and. several first-
class farms, covering a freehold area of
1,747 acres, sold for $600,000, equal to 83
years’ purchase on _ the rental. This
would make the estate return an annual
income of less than 1 1-4 per cent.
The manufacture of sugar from
beets needs some delicate chemical
processes to get rid of the salts, which
interfere with the extraction of the
sugar. It is this difiiculty which has
hitherto caused many failures in beet
sugar making. and in a small way it
would prohibit the domestic manu-
facture altogether.

A correspondent of The London
Field relates that a cat belonging to
a neighbor having brought forth. her
young within a few yards of a. hen’s
nest, the hen occasionally takes pos-
session of the kittens, driving the
old cut away with great fury, brood-
ing the kittens, and making as much
fuss over them as if they were. her
own chicks.
There is no profit in feeding stock
that is past its prime. It is waste of
feed and money. As soon a; any ani-
mal begins to fall it' should be dis-
posed of. Old cows, 0ch oxen, OIII
sows, and old hens, form the bulk of
the stock upon many farms. The
young animals are sold off. This is
the reverse of what is wise and prof-
itable.
There are more than one species of
plant known as wild oats. They are
all perennial, and can only "be de-
stroyed by killingthc roots and pre-
venting seeding. Persevcrance iu’clean
cultivation, sowing smothering crops,
such as buckwheat or clover, and the
careful gathering of the roots that are
brought up by the plow and left on
the surface by the barrow are necessary.

Any person, does wrong to allow
plows to become so rusty that great
labor is required to scour them.
There is no help for it in that case,
but to scour with a piece of brick and
sand and water, until the mould-
board is bright. But if, when the
plow is done with, the mould-board
is covered with thick lime-wash, or a
good coating of tallow, and put away
In a dry place under cover, there will
be no need to spend a whole day in
securing it when it is wanted for use
again.
There are times and places in which
sowing winter wheat upon an un-
plowed corn stubble may be not only
permissible, but proper, as the best
thing that can be done. The solid
bed thus gained for the seed is often
an advantage, as is also the time
saved: But where the chinchrbug
prevails. all the loose corn stubs
should be gathered up and burned, as
