' The present tendency among a section- of the fancier commu nity to breed tot novelty alone is, niore over. Indirectly , responsible for much disappointment and discouragement of younger 'fanciers.- TChose - who thrust ttpou the public o called breeds, manu factured f orsnoth in ' a couple of years at most by the promiscuous intermix ing of three or four established varie ties, in Tthe vain hope of thereby, pro ducing a( variety which will "combine the good qualities alone of ail four, for get that tboree.ro two great laws which, turn where wo niuy.- present themselves thonghout the domain of nature.

" rpeaKing or exmuiung onngs us to another and most important question affecting buffs in particular via, as to the legality of color feeding. Tliere can scarcely be a doubt in the mmd of any true fancier that to dye feathers by ford- ing with color is no more creditable '. than to apply the dye externally, nor is It easy to sea what satisfaction a sua vessfui exhibitor who follows this prac tice can deri re in wresting a prise from bhj less fortunate but wore honest rival, who scorns to convert what ah oold be a lff bird into an orange am by artiticial j means. - : - . . 1 Ruihion in the poultry world has bBenTthe silver statue of Liberty, which responsible not only for many absurd!-; ties, but by emphaeUiug with one hand some tnvuil detail tn a krwl mm I lob or comb, has with the other de stroyed more Krviceatie qoalkles. Minorca fanciers, for buttauc, are surely discovering that tbe fashion of breeding rbi fly for comb is not only depriving their favorites of their well earned reputation for laying, but la making the breed more delicate. Again, tb fidlowera of modern game are begin ning to see many good qualities in the neglected old Engliah breed which for many years bad escaped their notice, whik we bare yet to dueover .the table bird to eclipse the gam Dorking. . , -Let os not. therefore, give wav to the present tcniptHrioo to tIud yellow apee- ' ence such sterling breeds as Hamborgs, Ari(Ulaiuau, mud Brahma, not to men- tiou several others which in points of ntility or fancy wUI give their patrons as mocn n not more aaruaacuon man . 1 UMIJ VI IUV HMVBWULRC1 and there- HuUe yrortoction of late I aoD. brarina; in mind that color alone) will not imraui utility, and that the - Onedeeidnl adrantage with tbe mall Borke i. that each indiridcal ca. t girvn Letter attcLUgn.'4 .-. - A SW1BK Of MORMONS.

' renton Gazette. j Every now and then some Mc- Kinley contemporary tells us of the wonderful wave of prosperity that is sweeping over the country, and gives us as proof a fancy price paid for some piece of land so far, away that the statement cannot be dis proved. There is not a man in the country, no mattet what his poli tics, who would not welcome pros erity that would give prosperity to all sectloiw nnd$t all interests. 80 far except by : reason of a tariff of favoritism or a famine abroad, it is evident that good times have not re turned. ' Thero can bo no prosperity in an iigrrcuuuiai aeciiun, wnen a mngnu- icent estate, worth at one lime 25,0OO, sells for $2,000. Recently we noticed the sale of farm property in Wake and Chatham counties tit ratef, as ruinously low. With cot ton at 5 cents, with a high tariff in creasing all the necessaries of life, and with the poverty breeding gold st nd.ird there is no hope for better conditions for the agricultural sec tions of the republic until the prin ciples of die Chicago platform are written in our laws, , 1 he unco of land and of products is the legiti mnte result of tho fiscal and tariff policy of tho country. It is idle for men to expect improvement, except of a temporary and narrow nature, until there is a radical departure from the iioficics that are largely re sponsible for our poverty and busi ness depression.

In the days of honor men holding iiositions of importance and trust who no longer represented the sentiments of their constituents had the manhood to resign.
