GRAPE CULTURE. The following brief, practical and con densed rules for the management of -rapes were given by l>r. Whiting at the Farmers' Ins'itnte, recently held at Sag inaw, Michigan i The soil best suited for the grape is de composing shale*but any good clay soil thoroughly drained will do. The ground should be carefully pre pared, and only well rolted manure used. Decomposing turf is one of the best fer tilizers, when it can be obtained no other will be required. The vines selected for planting should be good one-year old layers or cuttings. They may look small, but will make the best vines. Good culture is as necessary to the vine as to corn or cabbage. Mulching and watering the first year should not be neglected if drouth is ex cessive. One good soaking is better than many sprinklings. More water can be saved with a hoe than can be put on with a sprinkler. In planting cut the vines back to two buds, whatever its strength or age. Summer pruning consists in pinching oil' weak and straggling shoots in order to confine the sap to the main branches. The first summer allow but one main shoot to grow. In the fall after the first frost, cut all the summer growth back within two buds of the ground. Ihe second year coniine the sap to two branches, and in the fall cut back to three buds each. The third year if your vine has made vigorous growth, a few steins of grapes may he allowed to mature, but better take off all the fruit than to suffer too much to grow. Too heavy hearing while young will weaken the viDe for all future time. The trimming now depends on what kind of trellis you wish to cover. After you have obtained a good rigor ous root you can make it grow in almost any place or shape you wish, by keeping the branches desired tied up, and all the others pinched back. Each year a tew of the strongest branch es should he allowed to grow as bearers of fruit the following year. In trimming cut away as much of the old wood as possible, and save the new, as all the fruit buds are on the new wood. You can easi'y tell how mueh to cut away by holding your new wood up to the trellis ami imagine a branch with three stems of grapes for each hud. If you do not cut off enough in the fall and you find that the vine is going to be too thick, don’t fail to attend to it when the new shoots are from three to six inches long, in the spring or while in blossom. As soon as the fruit is set examine the vine, spread out the new wood so that each bunoli of grapes will hang free and clear: pick off all the small steins of fruit and tasten the vines securely, so that the wind will not destroy your crop by breaking the young ami tender branches. When the wood has grown so that there are three leaves beyond the last bunch of grapes examine the vine, select the blanches you wish to save for fruit bearing the coming year, and keep them tied up until they have grown as long as you wish to make use of. The ends of the other bearing branches should be pinched oil' as they reach this point, three leaves beyond the last stem of grapes.” lfruak off all shoots and laterals as fast as they make their appearance, but on no account injure the leaves on the hearing canes. The fruit will color hut not ripen if the leaves are destroyed. drapes lor lull and winter use should tie picked as soon as ripe, and when per feitly dry picked in line, dry sawdust. Select your box or jar, cover the bottom with sawdust, then layers of grapes and sawdust alternately until fall. Keep in the coolest place you can find free trom frost until wanted for use. YOI' CAT BK HAPPY If you will stop til your extravagant and wrong notion* in doctoring yourself and families with expensive doctors or humbug cure-alls, that do harm always, and Use only nature's simple reme dies for sli your ailments—you will be wise, well and happy, and save great expense. The greatest remedy for this, the great, wise and good will tell vou, is 11 op Hitters—believe it. bee "Prov erbs in another column.

The platform of the greenbaekers de ep,res tealtv to "the American Monetary Svstim.” This, il it means anything more than dem»gogtil«ui, must mean feah.v to the principles of the constitution in mone tary atfurs. Ami what nn opp tsed to 8[>eeie payment The opinions of t"% Justice* of the Supreme Court of the I" .it’d Stales in regard to the legal ten l**r acts, afford the highest interpretations we have of the b aring of t i c-ms tui tion t pon the qu -t "tt ot pap r mon ey. These tv. re given quite elaborately in what are known as the legal tender cases of 1*71. in those cases a nta) irity ofth. Court, while tedding that lh” legal tender acts w ere const iti t onal, ino >t p v rated the fo l e.ving in their p iblisbed opinion “The legal ten-1 -r a t do n it a't -mpt to make paper a stand nil “t v ilit We do not rest their validity up m the asser tion that their emission is eoitrig--. or a v regulation of the value ol nt -n y nor do ire assert that Congress }nw/ make ang thing u'hirh has no value money Wliat we do assert is.tha C ingress has p over to enact th«t the govtrntu ill’s promises to pay money sha'l he lor the tint- being, equivalent in vulu-- to the representative ol value determined liy the (oi-iage arts, or to multiples thereof. It is a mistake to regard lie- b-ga! tender acts as either fixing a stand ir-l ol value or regu 1 itlng money value-, or making that mon ey which has no intrinsic value.” Thus we see that the majuiity of the Court declared that Congress cannot make anything money which has no intrinsic value, and that the notes is-m-d tiy tin government were not money hut promises to pay money—that is silver and gi l l coin, the money of the constitution. Jus'lcp Rradley coincided with tie- majority opin ion and also gave a farther elucidation of his views iu a separate paper, in which speaking of the legal tenders he stvs: “It is not an attempt to coin money out of a valueless material, like the coiuage of leather or ivory or kowrie sin Is. It is a pledge of the national credit It is a promise bv the government to pay dol lars.; it is not an attempt to make dol lars No one supposes that these government certificates are never to In paid—'.hat the day of spte.ir. pui/nunls is never to ret urn. And it ma t u s not in what Form they arc issued. The princi ple is still the same. Instead ol certili cates they may be treason notes, or paper ol" any oili.-r lorm. And th--ir pay ment may nn ttnution, the boast ari l gloi v ,,ur conn try. would sanction or p ruiit ai v >u -li legislation. Repudiation in any lo'rui, 01 to any extent, wou’d lie dishonor, ami lor the commission of ibis pu I crime no warrant, in tny judgment, can ever be •ound in that instrument.” Ill* opinion of .1 -tin- if,,,) W:l^ clearly fit (hied at-iin-t the L'i ei nb n h theori s, am! foilill !luw'in>; quotation sufficient lo explain bis views; “l'aper *lu m;f> Inn, at oae fitne or at otitic, bm|0j,tf that it cun not by any legi-lution, however stringent, be made a standard of value or the just '1'iivnb'nt ol gi 1 I and silver. Attempts ol the kind have always failed, and no body of men. whether in public or private Stations. ever had more instructive teach ings of the truth of that remark than the patriotic men who framed the Federal Constitution, as tin y had seen the power to emit bills ot credit freelv exercised dur ing the war of the revolution, not only hy the Confederation but also by the states, and knew from hi'ter experience its calam itous effects and the utter wort lilt ssness of such a circulating medium a* a stan than! ot value. Such men so instructed could not have done otherwise thin tin t did do, which was to provide an irrepcal able standard ot value, to lie coined from gold and silver. 1 aving ns little upon tin mihj et to the Uiseret on ol Congress a« w.-i' consistent with a wise forecast and an invincible determination lit it the essential principles of the Constitution should he pet pelttal as the means to secure the Id us ings ol liberty to themselves and their po t riiy.” Our readers "ill understand from tin above showing ol Hie opinions of the Su preme t mrt, that the so-called American M ini lata System of the greenbackers has no warrant in the constitution of the Unit ed States. If Mr. Peter Cooper could ob tain the 1 gislutinn at the hands of C >n■ g c-- to pay the bond- of the government in greenbacks, as lie advocates, the Su p-eme Court would deel ire such legisla tion one institutional. An American Mon etaiy Sv-teni which i« pposed to the Ann rieati constitution, to llte best Ameri can statesmanship, to the views of tlm ablest and soundest American ftmin eiers, and to the experience American people since the formation of the govern ment, ought to be ca b-d anything hut. an American system. The system whs tried in Frmce when the assignats were Issued, has been tried in Austria, lins-ia and thi r Kumpenti governments, and in all of them inconvertible p; per has proved a tailure, as u would here if the greenbackers could carry their doctrines itvo i ff. et; and none would snffi r more from the evils wt ieh the system would entail upon the country than the classes to whom the greenbackers are appealing for support—the honest tarmeisatid labor ing met) of the country. A Hope’s Fatal Weakness. TWO WEN KILLED AND TWO INJIRED H Y TUB PARTING OF A WIUR Ri»P»—'TEKHIHLE SCENE ON THE NEW YORK AN« UORAHK OF THE FAST RIVER BRIDGE. People who Were near the New York anchorage of the East River Bridge about uoon yesterday were suddenly startled by a loud rep >rt, as of a non. and a era-hing, whizzing noise. One of, the strands of cable No. 4 of the bridge had smi th nly given way, kill ng two of the men who had been woiking upon it. Phis is the first accident of the kiad that has happened on the bridge. Some of the employes apptreotly have feared that some casualty woul 1 happeu, but they were reticent on the subject yesterday. The New York anchorage i» 7U feet in height, and at the top it is 120 feet square. Running east an I west are the four rnaio cables, none of which is completed, that will support the bridge. The cable- are made in the f dislocated at the shoulder, and torn out at the elbow, the bone protruding about three iu he* from the flush. A blow on the he ad, just above the forehead, had made a hole through "•hich the brains could be seen. He died im mediately. Supple, who was -lauding forward, was buried hack, agaiu-t the woodwoik and ropes on the sole of the anchorage, and, rolling through, fell dow u into the yard, nearly seventy feet be low. Mr. Farrington was by the rope and thrown upon hiH hack on the other strands, the entire tackling flyingovir his prostrate body, but with out doing him any fuither injury.

The teachers simply led in examination, while the students took up the woik and continued it. The yraduatiug class though not as large a. last year, numbers nineteen, twelve gentlemen and seven ladies, but a strong class. Their mctle was put to a severe test, by the demand upon them, to conduct a reciiat on with students of the uotma! school, upon subjects that t'e class ha 1 not ha 1 any preparation.

Vaiious amendment- repoi ted by the committee on appropriations were then agreed to. The committee ou appropriations reported an amendment for expenses and compensation of the committee appointed by tin* Preside ut to go to Louisiaua, #0000, or so much thereof as may be necessary. Mr. Coukliug demanded tbe yeas and nays on the amendment, an I -aid be would vote no. In Louisiana tbe coudi ion of tb ugs existed which according to the constitution and statutes pa-sed i m pursuance thereof summoned the President of the Luiled Slates to au-wer one question; that was, whethei Packard was oi was net the legal (lover nor of that couiraonw* aith. He 'onkling J would not stop now to argue whether the Presi dent could avail himself of the tourists or visitors to an*.vvi r that u-tiou This commission sent to Louisiana was told to disregard the only question which was addie-scd to toe President. It wa told to proceed upon otuer grounds and in o.hei ways. Th s so-eallej commission was without a wurrant ol law, an I its doings wer iu violation of the law. If anyhodv borrowed from a Nation >1 Rank oi any oilier Rank, money to embark in this enterprise, it was not the bu-ineas of the Sen ate to ius* it a provision in the appropriation bill to tb) that which would hereafter be claimed to le galize it. He hoped the brevity with which he bad spoken would not imply that he questioned tb undoubted right of the Presi lent to decide whether the tioopn should be emj loyed in Louisi ana or not, but be did sav to tbe Senate that the sending of five tourists or visitors to Loui-iaua and allowing them to remain there to Commuui cate that which they did. was mhis judgment not only behind tbe law, but beside tbe law aud iu vi uUt:ou ot tue law. Mi. Thurman contended that it was the duty ot the President at the time, to Hud out what gov ernment he was to recognize, it being iuthe vaca tion of Congress. The debate was continued by McMillan, Eustit, Kellogg aud others, over the couditiou of atfaiis in Louisiana at the time the committee visited New Orleans. Finally Mr. Windom endeavored to withdraw the amendment. Several Senators objected, and Mr. Anthony (iu the chair) ruled that the amend ment could not be withdrawn except by uuaui tnous coDseut. Mr. Plume said he did not think the president had any right to send five men to New Orleans to lollot! enough men from the lawfrl legislature to recognise Nicholas as governor.
