appealed to and eorroboraieu we

a bullying swaggeriB' manner. But lit
tle attention wa. paid te this folly, by the
white people, and no difficulty occurred
until a numb. of negroes commenced an
attack upon one of their eofor, who had
voted tbe Conservative ticket. It was
evident that this man's life was in dan-
most fear to open an exchange from
other portions of tho State. From all
we can see and learn, the poor negroes
have ben drilled In every way by
the Radical leaders, to bring on such

tense of any necessity of making ma
nure of the coarse material of the
farm yard. Cattle should be well
supplied with dry bedding ; working
oxen, milch cows, and calves, should
have separate apartments. Horses
should, if practicable, have boxes
where they may freely turn them
selves, and not be tied to halters or
confined in stalls.
Sheep, nnlese tbey arc being fed
for the butcher; should not be, con
fined at all, hat should have a shed
to which they may have access from
bad weather. They are tbe most
healthy when tbey have tbe largest
liberty. Pro vision, of course, must
be made for ewea having iambs,
that they may bo entirely pro tee ted

means be allowed to lie ia heaps of

WATER.
Water thonld, if possible, bo pro
vided for stock in the yards, that they
may be well supplied without plod
ding through mud, or eliding on Ice.
While subsisting on dry food there ia
much greater necessity then at other
times for plenty of water, but, unless
the supply is convenient, cattle will
often consent to go without it for a
long time, sooner then overcome tbe
obstacles to getting it.
