Calendar reported his age, 360 days, at Nashville. An investigation into toe manage­ ment the pencten tiary at Syracuse, New tfork, discloses the fact that unusual aud cruel punishments have been in­ dicted on the inmates. Among these are gaging, “bueking," douches of cold water and flogging with a Leary cow­ hide. ' '' A horrible affair occurred at Fond du Lac. Wis., Wednesday, an elderly woman named Titier died under pecu­ liar circumstances. She was a sufferer from pneumonia and awarm flat-iron waa ordered put on her chest. Her drunken husband heated a flat-iron so hot that it burned through the cavity of her chest, and she expired in toe greatest agony. Governor Jerome walked from the Lansing house to his room in the capit­ ol, Saturday, with his wife end son,and the oath of office waa administered to him at 8.15 a.m. by Chief Justice Mars­ ton. Governor Croswell and very few other persons were present. In this, unostentatious way does tlie executive over 1,850.000 people take the helm of jx>wer. in a free, republican stat*'.

All the indications point to a great revival of railroad building in the south and it is probable that the next few pears will witness a rapid growth of the southern railroad system. There are also signs that northern capital is looking mope earnestly in that direction for commercial and manufacturing in­ vestments then at any previous time for many years. If these premonitions prove correct, wo may exjiect to see a greater progress in the material devel­ opment of the south during the next five or ten years than any former like period of iu history.

Grant has been decided upon to take his place. Mr, Foster, after his lung jour­ ney from Mexico where he proved him­ self so good a minister for six or seven years, to St. Petersburg, will doubtless be undisturbed, especially as this post, ever since John Quincy Adams at the begining of the century, instituted by onr legislation in Russia, has never been sought after with avidity by our politicians. General Hayes will un­ doubtedly return home at the end of his term. Mr. White at Berlin, has al­ ready prepared a new series of lectures for his Cornell students, which he will deliver before them next winter, Mr. Kasson, at Vienna, has been returned to congress by his old Iowa district, nnd is already spoken of as a candidate for speaker in a House where the Re­ publican majority is smnl), and is sore­ ly in need of experienced leaders, and Mr. Marsh, having creditably represent­ ed his country at Rome since 1881, a remarkable long period for an Ameri­ can diplomat, will probably resign this winter on account of hie advanced age, (general Fairchild at Madrid. General Longstreet at Constantinople, and Mr. Putnan at Brussels, as they have been but a abort lime at their respec­ tive posts, will,' we suppose remain. Mr, Eugene Schuyler, almost the only example in Amcrica*b diplomacy of an* official who has worked his way up step by step, will of course be allowed to enjoy his new honors as Minister to Servin. Who will be sent to Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Rome ? An action has been brought by the British Attorney General against the Edison Telephone Company in the British Court Exchange in order to re­ cover damages from rhe company for an infringment of tlie Postmaster Gen­ erals monopoly in telegraphs. The Attorney General contended that the Act of 1852 applied to any communion don that appealed to toe sense of a person at a distance through a wire. Mr. Betyamin, in behalf of the defend­ ants, dissented from toe views of the Attorney General, contending that Parliiament had not granted to the Postmaster General a monopoly of speech between any two of Her Majes­ ty’s subjects. Speaking of Mr. Edison Mr. Benjamin said that the Attorney General, while rendering* homage to that great genius, proceeded to show that toere was nothing new in his in­ vention. British ruffianism is by no means a rar • commodity. It of course takes various forms, and is known by differ­ ent names.'but, however it may be dis­ guised, the knocker-wrenching "lark” of the rough iu broadcloth and the wife beating brutality of the rough in fustian differ only in degree, and not in kind. Mobbing an unoffending bishop is the latest recorded pastime of the British brute. The bishop of Roches­ ter preaching iu St. Pauls church. Wai worth, toe vicar of which he has inhib­ ited, made allusion to certain matters which did not please some of his audi tors, a select few of whom in retalia­ tion attempted to maltreat the bishop in hi* passage from toe church door to his carriage, and as he drove off a huge paving stone wa* hurled through the carriage window. His lordship very fortunately escaped unhurt. If such a atrocity happened in Turkey England would be ablaze, but since it happened at home we suppose Englishmen will foi l their arms and congratulate them­ selves on being “a law-abiding peo­ ple.” Mr. Frank Uffner and his American Midgets are crowding Piccadilly Hall. I have seen a great many dwarfs, from Tom Thumb up, or rather down in this case, but I have never seen such mere crumbs of humanity as General Mite and Louia Forest, who are respectively sixteen and eighteen years of age.

I now renew the recom­ mendation, ami further suggest that a law be so framed aa tn include, beside plate-glaas.that of accident and steam-boiler insurance. This recom­ mendation is made to protect the legitimate companies, and to increase the revenue to tho State from a vpecific tax on such Lndnea*. mailboat*. ■ Railroad* form one of tho most important factor* in th-; bcsin«*a of the State.

Wo have 49 distinct corporation.* in tlie State representing the own, rrtiip and oj>eration of our railroads ; the total number of mile* Ix-ing at tin* time 3.918. At tbe end of 1878 then- were m tlie State 3,564 miles, and nt the end of 1879, 3,657 miles, showing an increase I for the two vear* of 354 miles, of which 93 were built in 1879, and 261 in 1880. The revenue for 1879 for the companies doing business in the State wa* £45.94A860.23, an in­ crease of a little more than 7X lior cont. over tho sum for the previous year. This amount of earnings was equal to £7,450 per mile nf road, and for tho miles in JLchigan 419.-464.338. The buuincK* of tho railroads for 1880 will not lx’ accurately reported to the Cummiamuuer untiltlie tint of May next, but hu ha* sufficient data in tea possession to warrant tho estimate tliat the gross earning* for tho year will exceed tlie amount for 1879 by about 18 per cent. The effect of the panic and tho recovery therefrom i* well illustrated bv the result* upon our railroad interest*. Iu 1873 their gross re­ ceipts were £48,158,363.68. This amount was gradually reduced until in 1877 it reached tbo minimum sum of £39,545,980.06, from which ]x>int a rapid increase of. Income is shown, be­ ing, in 1878, £42,71 A 139.05: in 1879. £45,942.­ 860.23 ; aud in 1880, twrtiallv estimated, £54.21X571.00. Tliat this result baa not been iroduced bv an increase of the rates of traffic Is t.lainlv shown by tbe report* of the Coniuitaaioner; for in 1877—tho vear of smaBest receipts—tho average rate of freight recwvid bv the road* waa 1 32-l.OdO cent* per ton for each mile, and in 1879 9 2-10 mills. The rates for 1880 hxvo not yet l>-en reported, but thev will alxnit by the additional tonnage handled by lhe railroads. Tills bu-dneas largely re- r^ente the increased wealth of the country uitutarv There is another view of the matter which may well !<• considered, viz.: that thti increase of the buimres adds very largely to the revenue of the State, In the way of taxes therefrom. There taxes amount for 1878, to £41(1.458.06; for 1879, to 544A399.80; and for 1880, will probably reach from £550,000 to 4573.000.

Tlie most common trees throughout the Western States are oaks of different vurietiee. They are found growing on l hillsides, along the banks of streams, on the prairies. Tbo soil and climate ore favorable to their production. Tho oak thrives here as the beech does in New Englund, the chestnut in Maryland, tlie pine in Northern Michigan, the cotton­ wood on the bonks of the Ohio and ita tributarieH, and tlie magnolia in the Gulf Statu*. It dees not suffer from root-rot, aun-acald, or the attacks of insect*. It i* hardy and long-lived. It requires no pruning, no protection, no transplant­ ing, no manuring, no cultivation. It fui wishes most of the wood employed as timber, a fair proi>ortion of the posts and rail* u-ied for fencing and all the tan-barks we produce. The trees ore stately aud highly ornamental. They throw up no sprouts or Buckeni. They afford admirable shade for all kinds of kinds. They produce largo crops of acorns, that are readily eaten by swine andaheep. Still no one engaged in the culture of trees for timlier or tuel plants oak trees. They generally experiment with treee that are “ far brought and dearly bought,” end make a complete or par­ tial failure. Millions of dollars have been spent for no purpose in buying or Betting out tho European larch ord requira protection from the son and cold, a large amount of cultivation, and considerable training. To raise a good crop of oak trees it m only nereweary to plow the land or dig up portions of :t, to drop the acorn*, and to leave them to genniuatc and grow. They will como up without any pauia being token to prepare the actxl. aud will require so care. “The fltteet aurrivo" and be­ come object* of worth and beauty.

He used to amuse himself and hte adinirera by betting the -drinks with them that they could not hit him—they to do their beat to hit him, and lie simply to ward off the blows. Tom Ochiltree, ci Texas, who has gained considerable reputation from hte intimacy with General Grant, aud perhaps oven more reputation from tho fast running horse which waa named after him, happened to be iu New Or­ leans during tno winter. Some of Ochil­ tree’* friends told Him of Mace’s favorite bet Ochiltree is a short, thick-set, powerfuily-built man. His hair te just red enough to indicate a fiery temper. A* soon as ho was told of Mace's bet he fired up and said he would bet the crowd a champagne supper that he eould hit Jem Mace. The bet, of course, was token at once, and the whole party started out ia search of Mace. He wnt easily found in a neighboring drinking saloon. Mace was standing at the biu* in the act of taking a drills. Ochiltree stepjied ouietly up beside him, and hit him sud­ denly a stinging blow on the cheek. Mace quietly placed hte glass on the bar, and, scarcely moving his body, brought hte right hand up and struck .Ochiltree a fearful blow just under one ear. Hi* friends rushed to him. gathered him up, and carried him to the nearest hotel. Doctors were sent for in a great hurry, aud after two or three hours of hard work they succeeded in bringing Ochil­ tree bock to this earth. He was confined to hi* roam in the hotel for three weeks, however When he finally reappeared ho was forced to furnish the champagne supper. Some of hte friends said to bun: “ What in the world made you such a blanked- fool m to hit Jem Mace?" ‘'Why." said Ochiltree. I thought I would ju*t tap him without hte knowl­ edge and would then explain to him, ** In Venice there is no wealthy class, and, as tlie only manufacture* seem to be of fancy glassware, travelers *ometiines wonder how tbe 130.000 Venetian* live.

The frozen trees were broken by the dozen, each as it fell giving forth a report like that of a cannon. The whole land was ice-bound ; traffic was suqrped and out-door work of every sort suspended.

It thus appears that the heel may with benefit be almost indefinitely lowered, while it is disadvantageous to prolong the sole of the boot beyond a certain limit, or to give it an absolute rigidity.

A New York Herald reporter visited the Jefferson Market and Tombs prisons, in that city, where youthful offenders against the law are detained. Warden McDermott informed him tliat their av­ erage age is from twelve to sixteen years, but sometimes they are as young as eight Ono boy of fourteen was sen­ tenced for twenty days, and his crime was stealing a pair of socks. The weather was bitter odd, and it was dear­ ly evident that the ctiikl took them to keep from perishing with the cold. One of tho boys, about thirteen years of age, said he had been arrested for1 stealing a zinc sign, which was insecurely fastened at the doorway of a largo building. Ho oilmitted tliat ho had been with b»?veral other boys, who started away with it, but on discovery had dropped it Thia boy did not run away, and wks arrested. Hi’s father went to a lawyer to secure his services for his defense, and waa tdd that for §30 he could get the boy ac­ quitted. Tho father was very poor, but in the belief tliat his son was innocent he pawned a number of ar'Idee, and man­ aged to sempe together tho requisite 330, which ba handed to the lawyer. Tho latter, just before tho trial, told tho father it would be necessary for him to have 310 iu order to secure the boy’s acquittal, and that the 330 paid was sim­ ply his fee for legal Services. The father had no means of raising the additional 310, and the boy got thirty days in prison, while tho Toombs lawyer got §30 d the poor father. One cell was occupied by a mere child of ten years. Uulike the cells in the Jefferson Market Prison, which are used for a like purpose, these cells in tho Tombs are dark, dismal, and repulsive.

In one of his lectures Gough refers to his love of the drama, which is not surprising, considering his own remark­ able histrionic gifts. He gave some re­ miniscences, however, in this connection, which indicate that his memory may Imj failing. For instance, he mentions his personal acquaintance with the famous performers Mathews and Kean. It may be remembered, however, that he left England at tlie ago of twelve years, hav­ ing spent the previous years in a secluded village. When ho camo to America ho became a bookbinder, and the reader may judge of his opportunities of becom­ ing acquainted with men of such dramatic fame. Mathews died in England in 1835, when Gough (then eighteen) was learn­ ing to bind books in New York. Kean died two years earlier. In mentioning this name it - is always understood that tho senior Kean is referred to, ainoo Charles Kean was too inferior to deserve any special notice. So also with Kemble, whom Gough claims as a personal acquaintance. Tho only man of tho name that won any distinction was John Pliilip Kembk-, who retired from p’e stage two mouths before Gough was born. His brother Charles, who lived twenty years later, waa so inferior tliat he is never mentioned in connection with histrionic success, though he was con­ sidered by some a clever performer.

OUR EUROPEAN LETTER. London, Eng. Jam. 17, 1880. In glancing over the provincial journals I have arrived at tlie convic­ tion tliat English farming, can neve! again be’ what it has been. Tho break down of Ute land system is more pain­ ful and obvious in Ireland ihnn else­ where, but it is scarcely more complete than it ia in England. The tenant farmers are learning the bitter lesson that not even a pood harvest can save them, and the landlords are every­ where lowering their rente. Mr. Mechi, who died the other day, was not a ten­ ant. He farmed hiso.wn land, and even then, in tlie these hitter years, could scarcely make both endrmeet. He. has not been able to throw much light on the now rising problem of agricultural, but as a scentific farmer, who, though ering, and, of hiii class an interest remcmlM'red That we may not have to inventory them the 1st of February and in order to do thia we propose to sell at the fv%DJ8 w n»vc usrn piwwMiun ui English mind for the time being, hxtraordinary discoveries are constantly lieing made of attempts to blow up ironclads. Hhueesof Parliament, hnrracks, the Thames embankment and whatnot. Birmingham gladly supplies tlie iriflh agitators with all the rifles and revolvers they choose to purchase, ana can smuggle into tlie country. The largest portion, doubtless, goes to the landlords or agrnte. Mr. Foster pro­ poses to introduce a bill respecting the carrying of anus, which is likely to be illy received at Birmingham. The trial of the Land Leaguers lias been n legal fiitce from the outset, aud is fast dnfting into drivel. The*c will be a tierce Parliamentary battle over the adoption of seveial measures, a proposal a'ready strongly condemned in advance by the Pall Mall Gazette, and as strongly de­ feuded- by the Times. The action of bach men os Bright, Chamberlain and Wilke on the point, will be look« <l for with ‘ interest. Lord Beaconsfield maintains that the assassins of the pre­ sent Government to power had unset­ tled everything in Europe, Asia and Ireland by recovering liis policy, which is only another way of telling England that had she kept him in power all. would have gone well. England took the contrary view, and as Europe. Asia and Ireland wefe eaually pnsettled during Lord Baconsfleid’s reign, it took hardihood to charge liiasucessor with rhe crime of cnrrvmg tlie legacy left by the Beaconsfield administration. A triking evidence qf tlie pervading literary bent of the age is the extent to which the rulers of the earth have gone into book making business. Natiolt-on in was ambitious to be a member of the Academy and published, if lie did not write his "Life of Oscar” to that end. Queen Victoriajb book is well known King Oscar of Sweden, a r poet of no mean ability even for a Prince, has just published a volume en­ titled "Poems aud Leaflets from my Journal” which will, no doubt fill his ^eminent countryman. M. Bjonistern Bjorn son, if lie is mindful of Job. with a delicious joy, and King Louimof Port­ ugal. has undertaken the ambitious task of translating Shakespear. London is given up to pantomimes <fiiring the holiday season, though it still crowds to Edwin Booth and Modjeska. The Gaiety Ims been taken pos­ session of by those favorite brigands, "The Forty Thieves,” the Park is oc­ cupied by "Little Red Ridinghood,” the Maryleboue risks shipwreck with "Sinbad the Sailor.” the Swrrey de­ lights in "Hop o’ My Thumb’’ tlie • rvcian in "King Frolic,” and so the merry round goes on.

In yuriotls parts of America there is evidence of the presence of good ardiitecta, and even of good decorative artists. Frank Furness has made himself felt at Philadelphia, Lyman Silsbee at Syra­ cuse, anti Rotiert Peabody in and around Boston. [By the way, how happens it tliat these leading architects should all be sons uf Unitarian clergymen ?} But generally tlie noble public buildings in America put to shau.e the private reai' dunces. The chief wont appears to be a greater attention to household archi­ tecture. In and around both Cincinnati and SL Louis I saw a largo number of houses that might have been made beau­ tiful,, and at the same time coat a third less than the expense evidently incurred. It does not seem to be realized in many American cities that it is a large part of tho art of a trained architect to save money for his employer. If any one will stop long enough iu the city of Syracuse, N. Y to take a stroll or drive through its streets, especially James street (which, notwithstanding its plebeian name, is one of the prettiest streets in the world), he will sec more beautiful homes than can be picked out from Cin­ cinnati, Chicago and St. Louis all to­ gether. Yet Syracuse ha* only 60,000 inhabitants, and few of them wealthy, according to the standard of the three mure western cities I have named. But Syracuse happens to have young archi­ tects who have studied tLeir art and mystery amid the most beautiful house* and villas of Europe ; they have learned that the best feature* of these con bo combined for yet more beautiful effects • and they have learned that taste and skill go farther than money toward the construction of a beautiful residence.— Moncure D.

The rich man at 1805 would generally be thought to be only moderately well off in 1881. Wealth has grown with the facilities for its production, and we now reckon by hundreds of thousands instead ot tons of thousand*. But, with all this increased capacity for toil and acaumulAtioa, tho human system remains jurt where it was. The millionaire can eat and drink no more on the average than tlie poor man. If he transgreese* tlie laws of digestion he Buffer* aa much ■* would the pauper. If machinery, and railroads, and telegraphs have saved time and the waste of muscle, they have greatly increased the wear and tear of nerve*. We understand hygiene bettor than our ancestors, and so there ore fewer deaths from fevers aud epidemics. The average duration of life has increased thereby. Y*t by way of unpleasant compensation, tho mortality from brain, heart and kid­ ney trouble* ingrowing, and a premature and often sudden death is likely to be the fate of the enterprising man of busi­ ness. Worry kills aud so doe* over stag­ nation. Tho latter was tho danger of the slow old times, while the former is tho haunting specter of to-day. Safety lias in the calm middle way. Comparatively few people have the courage or tho opportunity to decline fol­ lowing the. multitude, even when they know that the inaltitude is going wrong. Yet no one has more than one life to live, and he should use it to the best advan­ tage. A fair support, with intervals of rest, and a proper attention to morals and refinements, is to be preferred to wealth gained by the sacrifice, of every oomfort, Sable to be lost in tlie first financial storm, and perhaps not gained at all. Still the majority does not no conclude. Everything goes with a rush. Even the Sunday leisure of a former day is often deemed wasteful, though we can - now do os much in six days as our father* did in thirty. Hardly any one is satisfied to move on calmly and regularly. There has been no modification of natural laws in behalf of the suppoaed exigencies of the period. Suicide by overwork is as sure and often as speedy as by dissipation, and the most successful toiler*, if they do not actually die at -once, are often unfitted for the enjoyment of wealth before they have gained it. There may be a feverish enjoyment in speculation and rapid ac­ quisition, but there is none of the tran­ quil hapiiine** of moderation, and the re­ action when disaster comes is fearful There is tho same restlessness in social spheres ns in financial. Almost every one is striving and pushing, not with commendable ambition only, but with’ impetuous and selfish energy. Of course there are exceptions to the 'rule, but we have not misrepresented the cliarncteristics of tho day. It may not lie possible to weigh the aggregate of happinees nt present existing with that of any earlier |x?riod, for the growth of knowledge and tho increased prevalence of philanthropic ideas should also bo taken into account Yet it may safely bo affirmed that old sources of misery not only exist, but have been joined by now ones, and that a multitude of inventions has brought with it a multitude of anxieties.—Cin­ cinnati Gazette.

To own stock in tho Chemical Bank of Now York is as high a degree of respect­ ability as to live on Beacon Hill in Bos­ ton, or to own a pew in 8L John’s Church in Washington, and a good deni more profitable.

Jarrard dreamed that he wns taking potatoes from his cellar, and while at work, was attacked by a rattlesnake which becnmoinnster of the situation. Dut had not keen drinking, consequently the dreav was only a delirium tremendous, and io thought no more of the matter untiliiext day, when he was taking po­ tatoes from the cellar for the purpose of bringing them to market, he heard a rattle, followed by a sharp pricking sensation, which he felt in one of his Landa Access to the cellar is made by means of a trap door, and Dut, was not long in finding egress from the same source, as he recalled his dream of (ho previous night. When his fright had somewhat subsided, be armed himself with a light and bludgeon,and again de­ scended, bound to be a hero, but his in­ vestigations revealed only a bundle of straw, which rattled when molested, and pricked his hand when ho touched one on the end. His faith in dreams is badly shattered. —The dances at the Opera House, aa hitherto conducted, have not only been a disgrace to those attending, but a nuisance to the community at large. Esq. Chipman has determined to con­ duct all dances held there himself, and has issued cards of invitation for a Washington’s birth-day party, putting the name of the person invited ou the card, and only those receiving invita­ tions will be admitted to the room. Furthermore, any person conducting themselves ungentlemanly or unlady­ like will be immediately expelled from the room. This is business, and re­ spectable persons who like to trip the light fantastic toe can avail themselves of an opportunity, without the fear of being caught at a disgraceful pow wow. There is no reason why Nashville can­ not have civil parties as well as any other civilised community, and the ’Squire has taken a step in the right direction, and by adhering strictly to the priiMdplea ho Loo told down, he will succeed in establishing a series of re­ spectable parties. HASTINGS ITEMS. M. L. Cook, of the Banner, is think­ ing strongly of making a trip to Florida next month. If he goes we may expect some racy letters from that locality. Unde Tommy Robinson, whose seri­ ous illness we chronided lastVeek, has finally gone to the better land. He died in Hope, January 81, aged 73. He was widely known throughout Barry Co. Two impecunious fellows, father and son, were arrested this week, before Justice Burgher, for stealing a piece of meat. The boy plead guHty, and a slight fine was imposed. Both had been drinking to excess. Mrs. Sarah B., widow of Hon. John Bowne, and mother of A. J. Bowne. of th is city, died lit the residence of her daughter, in Hope, last week Wednes­ day; aged 79 years. She was widely known and universally respected. Rev. D. R. Shoop, who has acceptably filled the pulpit in the Presbyterian church in this city for some time past, will make a missionary of himself for the coming year, up on the shore of Lake Huron, and atter that will go ou his fruit farm near South Haven and enjoy lire among his peaches. Mrs. A. D. Cook, wife of a brother of Hou. D, R. Cook, of this city, died ou Tuesday afternoon, of nluro-pneumonui, after an illness of about ten days. She was highly esteemed in this com­ munity, and her untimely death will be regretted by a largo circle of relatives and friends. She was.nbout 38 years of age and leave s two daughters : one the wife of a son of A. J. Bowne, the other a young lady. The young Bachelor’s Society of Michigan is composed of the boys in the “upper circle” in Charlotte, r lint, Adrian and many other of the aristo­ cratic towns of the State, and they in­ tend to cmoy life while they are young and can. This week they met in Flint, and, it is presumable, had n gay old time in that lovely and famons city. Miss Addie Reed, of this city, was one of the ladies invited, and, I Understand, attended. . The morning train from the east was detained here Wednesday morning by the great hurry of a switchman, who in working the switch, after the forward trucks of the sleeper were run on the aide track, displaced it before the rear trucks reached him, running them off the track. The rear of the car made forthe ditch, and was only prevented by the car wheel running against the opposite rail from where it belonged. For so slight an accident it detained the train an unusual length of tiine. On Friday last the Board of Super­ visors met at die Court House for the purpose of considering the county cases in the Supreme Court in connection with the silane*claimed by the Probate Judge and Prosecuting Attorney. The Judge;'it is understood, withdrew his claim, as a recent decision bad been rendered in the Supreme2Court that knocked the bottom out ot his claim. The board appointed a committee of three—Messrs. Creasy, Swift and Kil­ patrick—to make arrangements for will see it disposed of in some manner. conrr notes. The Circuit Court for .Barry county convened on Monday at three o’clock, and a call of the calendar was had. and various motions were argued and dis­ posed of. The work for the term was materially cut down by the disposition of motions for continuance, and wns afterwards further curtailed by consent of parties and the settlement of various . coses. There is one singularity about many litigants: they are something like the dog in the fable—they have a great deal of bark, but np bite, and when it comes to the business of a law suit their back-bone gives out, aid a settlement is easily brought about if the attorneys throw nothing in the way. The Armstrong manslaughter case, that went over last term because of the sickness of the prosecuting attorney, was continued this term on application of the respondent, whoso witnesses are largely away in the pineries putting in a big winter’s work and laying up treasures to earn- them safely over a dry summer. This case now looks as though the May term would dispose of it ' The People vs. James Scidmore, a case of resisting an officer, has been continued on application of defendant; his witnesses also being away. James evidently does not desire an immediate trial, and will fight hard to clear his good name from the base insinuation. He is a good fighter in the courts, and always comes out ahead. Choo. Bauer is his counsel. Hawlev S tilIson, arrested on charge of assault with intent to commit a rape, withdrew his plea of not guilty, when the charge was changed to assault and battery, to which he plead guilty. He has not yet been sentenced, but will receive his just deserts before he is many days older, and hereafter he will be careful how he’condueta himself. The forgery case against James M. Farrow, defended by James Clarke, has been continued, on application of defendant. The case of bastardy against Jona­ than P. Sutton. James. A. Sweezey for the defence, will probably be tried this term.’ Levi L. Williams vs. Charles 8. Bur­ ton and others, was tried by a jury. Burton is the great chattel mortgage defendant of Barry county, and people make it a rule to make himadefendant in every case where he has ever heard of or handled the mortgage. In this else the mortgage was leftasliort time in his possession for collection, and afterwards the property was taken by other parties. Thejury concluded that Burton had no interest in theaffhir,and gave their verdict accordingly. The other defendants have a judgement entered against them. Carlisle vs. Carlisle was settled by the parties. Andrew Moore vs. Andrew J. Hardy was stricken from the calendar. This was au appealed case from a Nashville justice. Mr. Hardy, who appealed, concluded it was a small matter, and paid the judgment rendered in the iun­ ties court, and in that matter squelched the case. Mr. Moore has been the un­ fortunate possessor of several law suits and should congratulate himself that be cun begin to see daylight again. Sewcl W. Lana vs.William B.Young, default wa< set aside and plaintiff al­ lowed to file his declaration by paying the usual i ttorney fee. This is a re­ plevin cast and for a wonder there is no chattel i lortgage in it. . Barry county is a fruitful place for chattel mortgage rases, and it is sel­ dom one does not figure iu sonu' man­ ner, in our courts. A matter that excited much interest in this community was a motion for a new trial in the case of Hayford vs. Patton, tried last term of court. This motjpn was based on what wasclaimed to be newly discovered testimony and also on a claim that the verdict of the jury was against law and evidence in the case. The discussion was full and exhaustive, bv Clement Smith nnd John Carvcth for plaintiff, and P.W.Niskern and C. G. Holbrook for defendant. The motion was denied nnd au attorney fee for defendant of $10 was taxed against the plaintiff. This ends a long litiga­ tion between these parties growing ont of a claim of Hayiord that the goods, fixtures nnd furniture in Pktton's store belonged to him. The attorneys from abroad who have been present, this term, are Corbin of Caledonia, Powers of Bellevue, Foote of Charlotte, Worth of Jackson, Judge Ten Eyck of Pontiac. Philo.

What matter whether a garment be­ comes you or not ? Your attitudes are always graceful and fascinating. If ft were for this alone it would bo worth white to be tho daughter of a dancer. I wonder what Maxwell St. Ivea would say if he knew that ?** i’a anger was at white heat, ‘ was her self-control that to observer aho would have _Jy smooth and low as she replied to Ducreco's scornful speech : “Thank you for your compliment, though it is not by any means now for me to bo told tliat I am graceful. As for BL Ives knowing the story of my parentage, I mean to tell him aa soon as occasion demands; at present he is too little interested in me or my affairs to care about the story." Poor Lu felt that her thrust had been without effect It wns rarely she al­ lowed herself to be so bitter, but surely she had occasion. Here was this squint­ eyed, palc-f:iccd, ill-l>orn and ill-bred creature, who, by some elfish witchery, had won Lucerce’s handsome lover from her. From the first moment Roy Sebert heard Dnuilla’s voice h« had Ix-en ready to follow her through the world. Only two months from England, and al ready so unfortunate as to have caused an affi­ anced lover to ba unfaithful to ius vows !

Lu is jeal- tis. nud, therefore, unjust. I lulve never, by the slightest e>>nseion« act, tried to win her lover. Yet Roy is haudMxnu, and the temptation has been very strong sometimes." It was a source of deep humiliation to Drusilla that her mother luul l>een an actres.4, and, when she remembered hor cousin*3 taunt, she nsolved to try and make her more unhappy. “ I will deny myself tho pleasure of being amiable to Roy Sebert no longer. If Cousin Lu, with those Lively dark eyes of hers, cannot enchain a lover, we will see what the daughter of a dancer can do I ” Hix- lifted a small green-velvet shade from the toilet table and placed it over her eyes. An intense and unremitting devotion to philosophieal studies had made htc nearly blind. Certainly, her eves were not plea-sant to !ooi$ at, and sho said, “ I certainly wish to shock no one bymy hideousnesa." Perhaps she wps also aware that the dark velvet shade would nuke her forehead the fairer by contrast She was toll, and well devel­ oped, not nt all the sort of woman one would take to be » coquette. This was what her 'emale friends called her, but tho gentlemen without exception denied it . “She is simply a lovable woman, and wins our interest without effort," said her gentleman admirers. “ She is so artful as to conceal art,” said the bitter and unloved of her own One day, as she oat, talking to Max­ well St. Ives, the door opened and little 5-year-oId Floy said, ‘*Mr. Devine is come.” Max’.veil's lip curled, and he remarked : “ I did not know this was public-recep­ tion day. I will call again.” “Pray be seated, Mr. St Ives. I have something to say to you when my young friend is gone. Fred ia priv­ ileged, and comes at any time ; you honor me with your presence more rare­ ly.” The caller hod for exerse a pair of Drusilla's white kid gloves, that she had left in the village reading-room. She took them with thanks for liia thoughttulneas, and m she talked twisted them carelessly in her hands. Fred wm pained by this seemingly trival incident. He was romantic and not a little supersti­ tious, for between the palms of the gloves be had placed a dainty bine violet, say­ ing to himself, T will let thia blossom be noticed at her feet Ah, how different is our dream from the reality. It was the first violet of the year, as it was the first love of his life I will pteMB take ms by ths hand I will ■whetuncs. • I Maxwell said, in his abrupt, argu­ mentative way: “ Fred Devine doee not consider himself merely a boy friend; he .thinks himself a man and cornea a wooing.” The color crept into Drusilla’s pale face : “ Hush, Maxwell BL Ives, I will not believe it My own regard for this lad is bo different I wont him to re­ gard me as a friend ; I wont him ’to look up to me, nnd come to me for counsel aud sympathy; I wont his esteem; in short, I want earnest, reepecttul, beautiful friendship, instead of fickle, paasionnte, fatal love I" ’ She was much excited. All the con­ trol she had shown when Lu taunted her was swept away. She had suffered so much through love that she could bear no mention of what had darkened her whole life. / “ Whenever and wherever I try io es­ tablish a friendship, it is shortly trans­ formed into rockJesS and despairing love." ’ ' All tlurt ahe said .was received in utter silence. Surely he was not man but marble. All this was such deep grief to her, and he did not care. Any other man would hare expresaed some sympathy ; not so this impassive Northerner, who, cynical astd bitter, thoaght it a flue bit of acting. He had been drawn toward her at first, but an anonymous letter had told him to “beware of Drusilla.Ster­ ling," that sho was an actress by birth, and by education, and utterly without heart. From that time he liad been on his guard. “Pardon my emotion," she said, after a moment’s pause. “ Pardon me also if I go ou to say more of myself. ‘J I want you to know if there is any sufficient reason in the past wfly my present should be so full of paasiun and pain I You have before now bccumjJ mo of being a coquette I Upon'my honor I do not mean to be. What 14° I cannot help. It is a deep and sad fatality. Let me tell you the story of my birth that you may judge for yourself how I came to inherit my birthright of sorrow. “ My father was au English artist and marrite a woman who made hor living by singing and dancing at the theaters, tiho wns as deceitful as ahe was lieautiful. My old nurse Jeanette has often told me how mother would say to her : ‘ The Englishman is au ogre.’ But to him she would say: 'You are grand like the god*.* Slie won him, not be­ cause sho loved him, but because ho was supposed to be wealthy. Ho lovod her with his imagination rather than •with his heart. Me wiu» very suscepti­ ble to Itcaniy and gracefulness, and both were tier's to a remarkable degree. The fact that she was married did not pre­ vent meh loving her. Sho died when I was but three days old, and father aud Jeanette brought me to England. “From my tenth year I have been con­ scious of possessing my mother’s fatal fault of fascination. There is nothing I so much deplore, for 1 have mpKather’s honest English heart, and would win love only where I could return it Until the last few months I have never known what tliat word meant You are still si­ lent I have lost your esteem by con­ fessing my mother’s profession. Oh, Maxwell St Ives. I trusted you I Are yon not still my friend ?’’ In her earnestness aho laid both her little caressing hands over both of hia. All his reserve and skepticism were swept away. He pressed her hands like rose leaves in his own, and an­ swered: . “ For life—for death !” Before they parted they were betrothed lovers. DniHilln had some misgivings, and said: “ Can you go to your proud mother and tell her that you have espoused the daughter of a dancer?” “Drusilla Sterling, I can aay any­ thing to anybody. If only you ore true to me there is no obstacle to our union that I will not easily overoom^ I have given myself to you, body and soul, and God help him who comes between us!" rihe felt her heart grow cold as he spoke.. Was this love also to prove un­ happy ? O, it wat too sad that in this first glad hour of lietrothnl there should be a shadow of impending evil. She loved him so I It was cmsl that shb oould not'b6 free from forebodings. At the momefit of farewell she sobbed as her heart were breaking, and he had scarcely reached his homo when a note followed him, saying: “ Maxwell St. Ives : hfl I love you I must never see you again. I would only bring you unhappiness. It is my sad fate. Forget me and farewell. “Duvsh-la Stebuixo." It was hardly the kind of letter to send a man the world’s width from his heart’s desire I No possible combination of words could have been more certain to bring him to her side. No pleading, no tenderness, could have been more potent than this deeply-deepondent dismissal What would he not venture for her af­ fection ! Other men might love her— they must love her if they but entered her presence—but as for Drusilla her­ self, she should be so sheltered by his devotion, so hedged about by his atten­ tions and tenderness that she oould lovo He would not visit her to-morrow nor for many days. He would wait until her mood had changed and she wns sub­ dued by a desire to see him. He had some power over her that he knew. But his own will was weakest Ho must see her. Ho must hold her in his arms, if only for a moment It wns evening, that I fcm obliged to wear I cannot find my way without stumbling. Will you MX>ut her attire in Drusilla had patrauaded fa well would visit her that evening. Oh, oould she but have known on what a Roy lift her hand to examine the quaint device on her ring. Before ohj could prevent it, Boy had preeaad her land to his lipa. Bhe santehed it angrilj away, and at that instant the xfords flashed through her brain, “ God help hfcn who oocnaa bMVMK^wl.” At Drusilla's command Roy instantly left tho room. He had been gone but a moment when ahe heard the report of a pistol, and, fearing she knew not wliat, she rushed into the hall only to find her worst fears confirmed. Bov EWert lay there upon the fl >or in a lust ogoiy, the blood uauing from a wound in his heart. Swift as Drusilla had been Lucreoe upon her knees trying to attach the blood. Her face was distorted tith horror and grief. 8ho was still is death until she found her effort* vtin, and, when her lover fell a lifeless burden from her arms, such n riiritk echoed through the house ns could new be for­ gotten by those who heard it Father and mother knew in that ins-ant that their beloved only daughter wa a hope­ less maniac. Glaring wildly around, her glance fell upon Drusilla, and, re­ garding her cousin ns tho murderer of her lover, ahe sprang toward her with insane fury. It required toe united strength of Mr. Sterling and his farm­ hand to loosen her hold of Drusilla's throat! O what a night ef horror was that I Drusilla lying between life aid death, Lucrece raving of h?r lover, and accus­ ing Drusilla as hia murderer. Only one person knew the truth of the affair; that was John Miller, the liired man. He liad been to too village, and, on his return, he saw Maxwell St Ivos standing by the gate, looking toward the house. Tho man glanced up to find what attracted his attention, and there, plain as day, saw Roy Hebert kiss Drusilla’s hand, The next instantMavwell went rapidly up the walk, entered the house without announcement, and almost immediately afterward, retraced his steps, mounted his horse, and rode rapidly away. All tills was elicited tho following day at the Coroner’s inquest, and the fact that Maxwell bt. Ives was misring was all that was needed to confirm the ver­ dict, and free Drusilla from any sus­ picion of direct complicity in the mur­ der. Yet when, after weeks of illness, too camo back to reason and life, toe fait that she could no longer remain undur her uncle’s root sadly ; “ I bring sorrow and death into every. household I enter." So it was planned that a oottago should be bought, and Jeanette should be sent for as companion and servant. I was visiting a friend in the country who told me the story. Sho said to me, one afternoon when wo were out driving, “ Would you like to call on Drusilla Sterling? there is the cottage. " It wns a beautiful place. There were English roses trained about the low porch. A woman in French cap met ns at the door and conducted us into tho onef outline marked by tiny pearls, looked like’ a small royal crown. Tho eyes ware clear and dark, but infinitely aid. Of late years Jeanette had read to her mistress until Drusilla’s overbecome as Wight ofi in youth.

The congregation were mainly rude hunters and their rustic families ; and the trusty rifle, the faithful dog, the pictareeque hunting­ shirt, with ‘.‘brain-tanned” moecarin, and belt, and gleaming knife, were as sure to put in their appearance at “ week­ day meeting” Hs tno hunter himself. The place of worship was at Father Perkins’ double cabin, which liad been built with as much reference to worship aa to the comfort of his own family. Thia notable man of four-score was quite distinguished for piety and his gifts both in prayer and ns class-leader, but not more ao than he had been for his superiority as n hunter. With him the ardor of the passion for the chase was unabated, though he was entirely disabled by the infirmities of age. The writer has, at the same sitting, Deen en­ tranced nt narrations of the hazards of hia hunter’s life, and edified by his deep,' undoubted, child-like piety. , It was n grand occasion for Brother J-------. With a crowded house, and Father P. in the arrten coma, and nothing to divert attention, unless it were the large number of rifles and guns, which, as usual, were placed con­ veniently near against tho lence of the yard, and outside the wall of the house itself. Tho opening service gave great wm quite demonstrative in their devotions. The congregation became deeply inter­ ested. The preacher warmed with his subject, argument culminated into poetic imagery, and tho pathos and power of unstudied eloquence melted and overwhelmed the rude audience. But between tho eloquent strains of the impasaioned preacher the trained ears of tho congregation detected the peculiar yelp of a well-known old hound. The sagacioua brute was understood and believed, and the congregation was electrified. This manifestation of in­ tense interest invailed the rude pulpit, and roused Brother J------- to still higher strains, which were presently inter­ rupted by the thunder of tho approach of a herd of deer closely pursued by the fleet and faithful dogs. Simultaneously with tho climax of the last burst of elo^ quence the entire congregation, pellmell, broke for tho door. As the earnest preacher dropped his hands to the rude desk, with a comical tone of sadness and disappointment on his lips, and holy horror depicted on his face, with bitterness of soul he ex­ claimed : _____ “ It is no___ use!

Allow to remain until the coffee i* a fine, rich brown, but not until it browns to any blackness. Grind to small grounds, but do not make the very common mistake of grinding to a powder. Place these grounds in an earthen, or nt least porcelain-lined, bowl. Cover with ! foiling water. Set on a warm place on the stove, but not hot enough to make it boil, and allow to infuse for naif an hour. Now strain. We. have now an exquisite coffee flavoring. A very delicate coffee flavoring may be obtained by another process, bs fol­ lows: Roast and grind your coffee as directod in a previous recipe. Now reduce to grvuuua, grounds, tuiu and throw these grounus grounds W turuw uxvse a^Uj into cream before it is sot on .itho nfire. Now, ..... by the time the cream is heated up to the boiling point, tho whole mass will be pervadod by a very delicate coffee bouquet Of course• the cream must be carefully strained before you proceed to freeze. It will strike , the housewife at first reading as simply incredible that the full aroma of too coffee berry can be extract­ ed without any application whatever of fire. The experiment will delight os well as surprise all ladies of intelligence and taste who once put this to the test. Tho cold process was first devised rimply with a view of preventing, as fur as possible, the escape of the aroma of the coffee brirry, which is as volatile as it is delicate, and all ordinary processes more or less sacrifice. Take five ounceo of best Mocha or Old Government Java, waylaid down in the previous recipe, pour the grounds into a glass bottle or decanter; pour on a sufficient quantity of cold water to cover the coffee, stop the bottle or decanter close, set in a warm situation for thirty thirty hours; now filter the infusion by pawing it through some fine lawn or blotting­ paper placed on a glass funnel or strain tlirougn muslin. ■ This process has been tried with hot water aa well as with cold, and, while it contradicts all prevailing impressions to say so, this still remains the fact, that the ©old water produces the best result. Let each houaekeeper tty both the hot and cold water preeces, and decide for herself which result gratifies her the most It will be observed that the delicate and highly aromatic infu^ons obtained by any of the foregoing prooesaes will be fully avaflable for hot breakfast oof- for coffee iee-creum. — Philadelphia Times. • i । ' _ ' ’ j j I I 1 ■ I ■ J 1 । 1 | �Dress Goods, Suits of Underwear, for Ladies and Gents. 106 Suits of Clothing, for Hen, Boys and Youths. 53 Overcoats, for Me», Boys and Youths. ’ 140 “*o that n in tie grmnfi in front of hi*' oppo- unjuftiflftlilo stricture* upon by'* address, iha.puipose of which was particularly to call attention to the bad result* of confining young boy* with old and hardened crirr iriaJa, whose influent* more than offset the reformatory effects ci imprisonment ask* “ what real dif­ ference is there I vetween-' a place of de-1 tention ’ and * prison.

I was first attacked by a slight cold, followed with deafness and ringing in the ears, soreness of the throat, disgusting nasal discharges, weak, inflamed eyes, hawking, rising of vile matter, black and sometimes bloody mucus, coughing, with great soreness of the lungs. The liver and stomach were polluted with the diseased matter running from the head. Compelled to resign my pastorate, I compounded my CATARRH SPECIFIC, and cured myself.

Our great pine woods are the growth of hundrede of years, and onoe they are cut down or burned over the supply fa ended. The pine forests of Maine fifty years ano were thought to be inexhaustible. Tnousands of men were employed dur­ ing tho winter months felling and cut­ ting • trees, and in ’ the summer rafting the logs down the streams of cutting them into lumber in tho mills. Bangor, ou the Penobscot, was once the brnuebt town in tho United States. The river was lined with saw mills for miles, and 2,000 vessels were engaged in the car­ rying trade. The forests for 200 miles up tho river, and for many miles on either side, have been laid waste, andthp “ Old Pino Tree State " fa no mare than a figure of speech. Spruoe, which rap-. idly, reproduces itself, • fa tho lumber most generally manufactured—tho pro­ duct on the Penobscot this year being ten times that of pine. In Michigan and Wisconsin tho same reckless haste and waste are going on.' Tho Saginaw valley, which formerly con­ tained tho largest and finest forests in Michigan, fa being rapidly depleted. Ita mxfl* have a capacity of 600,000,000 feet of lumber per year, and mill-owners are obliged to bring logs from other rivers, often as far as 150 miles distant, to supplement tho stock of the Saginaw. Tho output has reached ita climax, nnd no new mills are built or old ones re­ placed. On the Muskegon river the amount of logs rafted thfa year fa 400,­ 1)00,000 feet, aud one large operator alone will put in about 250,000,000 feet thfa winter, hauling to the river by rail an nvernge distance of eight miles. The Alpena district will, at tho present rate of-cutting, be stripped in fifteen :ye*ra. The Wisconsin pineries have been worked much less extensively than those ot Michigan, but an estimate made by the President of one of the largest log­ ging companies on tho Mississippi fixes the utmost limit of the supply st forty years. In Minnesota the forests are much smaller in extent, nnd will prol> ably not survive tho others. Unless, then, a new departure fa made, the last tree will bo cut from Maine to the Rocky mountains by the end of forty years, and the United States must depend for ita supply of pino lumber on foreign'' countries. • Is there no way of limiting produc­ tion, of husbanding our resources, of putting an end to reckless waste, of pro, teotion against forest fires, or of replen­ ishing our woods bysystemutic forestry?' These are questions in which the whole' country has on interest, nnd which must be discussed and answered. IV Ann, wMo. oi Ajnrt Pill., I* ing Ktai ral>j-tl>flu-»Hnm:Ui« lomarred to Prine.

In 1828 local conventions multiplied, and the spirit of the movement manifested ifaeii when (Sept 16,1831) the United Stetos AntiMasonic Convention met ai Baltimore and nominated William Wirt for tho Presidency. That was the time of the excitement in relation to the abduction of William Morgan, and the Anti-Ma­ sons made tlie first great move. Then the National-Republican (Adam? and Olay’s) party met as siich for the first and last time, at Baltimore, Dec. 12, 1831, and Henry Clay was nominated.

But tho girl stood entranced, her eye* fixed upon a man’s face, seated at the farthest end of the table. It was a strikingly handsome face, even when wearing, as it now did, an expreraion of calm, barn of desperation. No tinge of color was in either cheek or lips. Hi* eyes shone with a strange and hard glitter, and wore fixed upon tho ball* a* they swung round, as though on the color uppermost hung his hoi>o of life or death. And so it was. Ho luul sat down pos­ sessed of a fortune: ho arose a beggar! Fate h.id steadily pursued him with mock­ ing hcrpelcasnesa, until he had placed his He half arose /rom the table. What more was to be done, save to go out some­ where into the still night air and send a bullet through hi* heart or brain. It was at thia moment the girl, with flushed cheeks and ' alf-parted lips, darted up to his aide. “Take this," she pleaded, “for my sake,” and pressed a gold piece into hu hand. He turned. To his excited imagina­ tion *!>e seemed scarely mortal in her pure child-like loveliness. Hi* first imjiulre w.-s fo return her offering—he wa< nut i an alms-taker —but again rang out un croupier’s cry of command to plutx- U.e stakes. Tiie child stood breathless in her eager exp . <ncy, her eyes burning with fever­ ish interest A b’*dilen impulse overmastered him. Without speaking a word, he placed the gold upon the table. ' The next minute a small pile of gold was fit his elbow. He staked it all again. Ami he won. A bright spot of scarlet replaced tho pallor in his cheek, which spread and deepened as Dame Fortune, who Ixad so persistently frowned upon him, now reserved for him only her smile*. . Morning was breaking when he rose from the tables, no longer fi desperate man, but with his fortune three-fold re­ turned to him, After hi* first winning he had turned to return to the child her offering, but she had vanished. Should he ever find her, ever repay the debt ? He knewnot; but, standing at last out under the clear, bine sky, with a great weigh; li'ted from hi* heart and brain, Harold Clayton vowed that it should be hi* life-search, but that gaming-tables should interest as new a* it was sirange. Through the next week her face haunted him. Then they met again, and the charm grew and deepened. He could not define it; he scarcely acknowledged it to himself; only away from Miss Ray­ burn he wo* nwtfeas and uneasy, until he again found himself within the scope of her fananationa. Yet her nature remained an enigma to him. Although so young in years, ao beautiful in form and feature, she seemed cold even to haughtiness, reticent almost to BOOED. It was as though some exquisite mar­ ble statue had risen in his pathway, which might some day warm into life. She welcomed him whenever they mot with a manner which, while it gave him do Cause for^oomplaiDt, yet chilled the hope springing within his breast One day, on going to her home, the -servant met him at the door with the an­ nouncement that she waa very ill. Tlii* knowledge brought other knowledge —the fact that ho could no longer conceal from himself that he loved her, and that upon his hope of winning her hung his life’s happiness. . He went back to his studio, wretched and despairing, and seated himself at his easel. He had' not meant to paint her face—his brain seemed unconscious of lii* fingera'e toil—yet, when the morning broke, it waa her features smiling upon 1dm from the canvas, and he remembered the word* hi* hostess had uttered on the night he first had met l^er—that thus he should render himself immortal He grow pale and wan in the day* of anxious euapense, when those who were watching over her couch knew not which would conquer, tho angel of life or death. But there came on hour, never to be for­ gotten, when ho was admituxl into her presence. She was very white, very fragile, but more beautiful than in the coloring of perfect health. A new expression, too, was in the violet eyes raised to welcome him. “ I am very glad to see you again," she said, gently. “I hear you hare been anxious about me. You ware verv kind." . Then the words he had not meant to speak burst from his lips. “ Anxious?” he said, “ can a man. Mis* Rayburn, perishing of hunger, hear of the famine without a shudder ? I am pre­ sumptuous, you will say. It is tine. What is mv life with its manv settled pages in wnich your eyes could never looK, that I should dare to offer it to you? And yet, purified by your love, I would try to make it more worthy. Tell me—answer me! If I serve ** Jacob aefved for Rachel, is there hope that I may win you! My darling! Jtfy dar­ ling! I cannot live my life without you! Will you not share it?” Lower and lower dropped the lids, un­ til the long dark lashes swept the marble cheek, while the sweet mouth trembled; but tho momentary weakness passed as she »]Kike: “Forget all that you have said, Mr. Clayton. It can never be." “ You do not love me?” he questioned sadly. Again that swift expression of pain flitted across the lovely face. “I shall never marry,” she answered; “ bat,” and in her voice crept an almost pleading tone, “I need my friend* very much, Mr. Clayton. Donotdeeert me!” “I cannot," he replied. To desert you would be to desert the hope of one day forcing you to un sav tlioeo cruel word*— the hope which will go with me to my grave." What was the barrier between them? This was the question ever ringing in Harold Clayton’s ear. As she looked when she pronounced his doom, ao ho had fancied she might have looked when the statue warmed into life. Since then, she had been colder, more distant than before; but he caught the momentary expression, and transferred it to the picture on which his every leisure moment was spent He was thus engrossed one morning, ever striving to add new beauty to his almost perfect work, when a low knock at the door aroused liini. • “Come in!" he called, then bent anew to his task, without so much as raising hi* head until a low, laughing voice sounded close beside him. ' “We were caught in the shower, Mr. Clayton; and I persuaded Margaret to seek shelter with me here. I did not dream she would find herself forsialled.” It was Mrs. Somers who spoke—the lady who had first presented him to Mis* Heyburn—whose instruction he had, un­ known to her, carried out. ’•Margaret,” she asked, turning to her friend, “you have lieen sitting for vour portrait, and did not let me know. Why have you kept it such a secret?" Ho had now sprung to his feet in time to ace the rosy tide spread over Margaret Rayburn's face. “It was liberty I took without Miss Heyburn's knowlcxlgc, Mrs. Somers," lie explained. . “I assure you I have never been so fortunate aa to secure a sitting.” “Well, you shall have one now, and you must thank mo for it,” she rejoined, while Margaret turned away to.'examinc the sketches and studies lying about in profuse confusion. “Here are some aketehes taken while I was studying abroad. Miss Reyburn," said Harold. Will you amuse yourself by looking at them ? “I will return in a few moments,” in­ terrupted Mrs. Somers “Wait for me, garet's lipa, but too late.

When I rose from ths table I had recovered all and more, but I vowed to my unknown deliverer that I would never again hazard a dollar of the fortune I con­ sidered hers. I have never found her, Margaret The child will never know her work, but I am not afraid to meet her, for I have kept my pledge.” “Harold!"—it was almost a whisper, but something in the tone made Ids heart give a wild, joyous leap—“have I known you all this time, and you have just found ma out? It was’this, Harold, that aepsnted us. I dared not give my life to a man whom I had first known as a gambler. I supposed you still played, and J thought that to see again the ex­ pression on vour face I had seen that night would kill me. Tell me, is it true? Have you never touched a card since?” “Never!",.'he answered, solemnly. “And it is,to you I owe it—it and life. Pearl—Little Pearl, can yon not trust the man vrho has been so long faithful to the child to be still faithful to the wo­ man? 'My own, you will not doom tho life that yOn hare saved?" But at this juncture, Mrs. Somers; open­ ing thie-door beats a precipiate retreat Harold’s statue has warmed into life, and, - pressing the lovely lips to his, he thanks God that it is breath which has awakened it A BIG GUN. A disappointment which occurred in a second attempt to fire the ono-hundredton gun whetted (he interest in a renewal of the experiment*. After an inspection ox the gun and a preliminary trial of the hydraulic machinery, the port door of the loading turret, tedinically called tho “ cage," was opened, and the muzzle of the gun depressed in tho loading posi­ tion. The proof shot of two thousand pounds weight wo* placed in the loading truck, and the two cartridges were placed in position liehind it The pow­ der charge was now increased to four hundred and forty-one pounds, mid tho powder was of the character profession­ ally described as “P 2," which consists of cube-ahaped “ lobbies " ono and onefourth inches in diameter. Loading was the work of a very few minutes. It was not performed as a time test, but it has been found that the whole operation of loading, aiming, and firing can be got thrpugh in lees than two min­ utes. Of tho 30 feet . 3 inches, which i* the depth of tho bore, the charge occu­ pies nearly 9 feet, and when the mark on the hydraulic piston showing that it had gone fairly home, the muzzle was raised and trained to the left, the work of a very few momenta, seeing that tho gun can be carried completely round in eighteen seconds. With the aid of lad­ ders Captain Morley, It A.,' the proof officer, and his assistants laid tho gun so a* to direct the projectal through the two electric screens which stauds before the bn Us to measure tho velocity, a wire from th *instrument-rooni was connected with the vent, and the warning bell was sounded. Then it was found tlmt Colo­ nel Inglis. R. E., who is preaid' ut pro Um. of the committee, was to occupy the turret while the gun wa* firul, and after handing to Lieutenant Willocks an official-looking pajxir, uhich, by grim joke, was said to be his will, he entered the exposed side of the turret with a lighted lamp and was taste ed in with chain and staple. Major Ellis takes his stand Ix-side the gun on the <q»on aide of the emplacement, and plain Lewis, R. E., posts himself iu the ri'ceas oil the other side, where ore the levers which control the machinery. All others withdraw to such (listene<•* and refuges as prudence may suggest, and, without any long interval rt suspense, the gun is fired. As the spectators run furwnnl they see Colonel Inglia walking out of the’turret, the door of which has burst o|>eu, breaking the iron staple. He de­ scribes the coucuasiou, however, ns not distressing, and accounts for the door opening by the outside vacuum created by the exjiansiou of the jiowdcr gases, which, he thinks, can hardly affect tlie permanent works, inclosed os they will l>e on all nide* with heavy masotuy. As a man will always have to occupy the turret to work the loading apparatus whenever the gun is in action, it w ns as­ suring to have tho opinion of Colonel Inglis that ho should be quite comforta­ ble under tho circumstances. Tlie offi­ cers who stood beside the gun stated that the effect was much tlie same as they might experience fifty vnrds off, ami tl:e impression upon the other observers wu* that the report waa not quite so kud as they had heard the other day. The im­ pression was soon confirmed in varioitn ways. The recoil with the increased charge was but 2 feet 8 inches, not much more than half the recoil of tlie otlu r day; the shot, which then weut fortyfive feet into tho sand-bank,, was now found at a depth of thirty feet only; oud. most conclusive of all, the velocity, which with the 425-pound charge was 1,520 feet per second, now measured with the 441 pounds of powder only 1,040 feet. It was clear that there was “something wrong somewhere," and tho natural conclusion was flint tho projectile had slipped forward while the muzzle was depressed. Tlie gun was therefore loaded again with the name charge of 441 pounds, care being first taken to wash it well out and Bcoreh it with a mirrior for olistacles, of which none were found, and, all being prepared, it was once more fired. The rejxjrt wa* sensibly heavier; the recoil was 4 feet 7j innhes. the pene­ tration of the sand butt wa* 45 feet, and, finally, Captain Morley came from his were fixed upon a little sketch round the shot waa proved to be in ita deaperatc, desparing, and balding out to him a sinwith a smile in her eym. which waa not olwervcl in the previous round—-the suspicion tlxat the shot had clipped forward gained strength, and it episode of more than ordinary interest, and one which alma-t challenges belief. A neatly-attired lady, with a veil drawn tightly across her face, called at the office and inquired for Mr. Francis. After being informed that he was absent, by Mr. XJ. Fitzwilliam, the chief clerk, she said: ■ “ Has the ambulance from the female “ Well, then, I will wait far Ik if you will permit mo to do so.” “Certainly, madam. Walk in this way and bo seated. You will not have long to wait Were you expecting any friend?" said Fitzwilliam in the tone and manner of one fearful of being thought inquisitive, as the lady took tho proffered choir. “Not exactly a friend,” she replied, lifting her veil and exjK>»ing a naturally handsome face, which waa just then ani­ mated by a pleasant smile, “but I am to meet a woman here from the hospital who is to give me her baby. It's only' tliree weeks old, and a pretty little girl it is, too.” Fitxwilliam is a father, and to say that he was highly astonished is to" put it mildly. In time tho ambulance arrived, as also did the mother and hei* babe. Whep the two women met but a alight nod of recognition passed between them. The silence was broken by the clerk, who said: . “ Here is the baby." “Ain’t it a sweet, pretty darling?" ex­ citingly exclaimed the mother-to-be. The real mother held it up and looking at it sadly, murmured: “I hate to part with it” Then kissing it, once only, she prof­ fered it to the other, who pressed it to her lips in joy, as the mother said: “Take it and be good to it" “That ! will, indeed; you may depend upon that." The mother then gave her the nursing bottle, when she was asked: “ How is the milk prepared ?’’ “ By boiling it and then letting it cool." “ Don't you put water to it ?” “No, just simply milk.” “ I have heard of rice water being fed to babies. Did you try it ?" “ Nothing lias over been given her but Ixnled milk," A short pause of embarrassment he re ensued when tho real mother said, * * Goodby,” and walked away. She was palolooking, and evidently not very strong. Her features gave evidence of youth and beauty but her bearing waa not indica­ tive of refinement or education. The new mother retained her seat and fondled the child with as much affection os though it were her own. She re­ marked that alio desired to allow the mother sufficient time to get away from the building, as she did not want to be followed by nor, or have her know where tho child’s new home was. In a few minutes the bona fide mother returned, approached Mr. fitzwilliam, asked for and received two car tickets and then walked away without casting even one look or glance toward the babe. Shortly afterward the babe and its new mother went away in a carriage. These two women ore totally unknown to each other by name. Only the proper officials know the mother by adoption, and they are satisfied of her respectabil­ ity and competency to provide the child with a good home. Will the mother and child over meet again ? They AH Do It. They can instantaneously photograph an express train going at sixty miles an hour, so that it looks, smoko and all, as if it were taken at a stand-still. And yet they can't, or won’t, photograph a man sitting in a chair without screwing his head round in a vice like a movable doll, and keening him looking at a smudge on the wall till his lip drops and his eyes water, and the pleasant little speech he meant to think about, just to hold the expression, goes maundering through his head like the ghost of a homeless echo. Every “photographer's studio” must be at least twenty years behind time. Why is it?—Boaton Putt. “Couldn’t Help It.” William B. Barrington, of San Fran­ cisco, was possessed by a desire to take life. He went before the Lunacy Com­ missioners and asked to be sent to an asylum; but‘they decided that his men­ tal trouble if ha had any, was brought on by drink, and refused to incarcerate him. He declared that he had murder in his heart, and some day ho would be unable to resist it Ono evening he was drinking amicably at a bar with an in­ timate friend.

He also presented another bill for 325, alleging that the visitors to tbo deceased had worn out his carpet At the request of the offi­ ciating clergyman, a ftoliceman was de­ tailed to be present at the funeral, with instructions to arrest him if he created any trouble, which he was prudent enough to avoid. Davie Bubton waa returning home from Waco, Tex., in a wagon. Ho stopped at Mills' store at Hop Creek, and asked toe clerk to send him out *a cigar. The clerk was busy, and seat another mon, well known in toe neigh­ borhood.

Lo Bon, in rendering an account of the progress of his oljeervations on the comparative mean weights of male and female skulls, has explained the precautions which he had taken to avoid errors arising from considerations of the differences, bodily stature, age, race, and social or civilized status. After tak­ ing ab these conditions into account, he finds a difference of 172 grammes in fa­ vor of tho skulls of men over those of women. Ho asserts that while a newlyborn girl has a heavier brain than a newly4>orn boy—:in advantage which she rapidly loses—the women of inferior races ore relatively stqierior to those of ‘ ' hish-eivilizal mens matter wonU,wawan docs not advance, and consequently, 1 the differences between her and man are 1 constantly augmenting. If M. Le Bon's assertions are to l>e accepted as facta. they would undoubted!y seem to ]>oint : to toe necessity of bringing the opportunities of intellectual culture more I closely within reach of women, but the learned doctor predicts that the rfiom-; ination of desolation will fall on society if women bo removed from the happy ignorance of their domestic hearths.

Its theory is that our good and bad qualities come by in­ heritance, so they have undertaken to improve the human stock on the same general principles which prevail iu the management of a horse farm. “Itfe propose,” say these Boston fanatical scientists, “to set in operation such a movement as will aim to put an end to disease and vice and crime in offspring, and fill the future with health, virtue and innocence.” In other words, they propose to institue the researches of the physician into tlie present and past condition of partiek intending marriage, for the blessing of £he clergy­ man.

The little village of Austintown, Pa., has a genuine acnration. Some time ago a belle and beau progressed so far in their friendship that it culminated in an engagement by marriage. The young lady’s parents objected and after expostulations and exhortations suc­ ceeded in persuading tlie young lady to break her engagement. The parents had in their mind’s eye a bachelor of forty years, whom they thought was a more eligible match. The maiden, after the firat show of gnef, waato • all appearances prepared to wed her mid­ die aged suitor. The day was set for the event, andte very thing was prepar­ ed for it regardless of expense. At last the day, hour, guests and preacher arrived, but the bride did npt arrive.

Eggleston for divorce. The evidence shows that early in 1877, Eggleston, a man aged 56, was a guest at the home ot Etta and accomplished her ruin, although she was but 14 years old. T^ie parents were horrified upon learn­ ing that their daughter was enciente. The guilty responsibility was not de­ nied by Eggleston, who proposed to marry the child, and as the only means of palliutinr the error, even '.t it should not conceal the shame of the youthful victim of the old reprobate's lust, they consented to her marriage with him. With their written consent, and. by himself stating to the clerk of the court that she was fifteen years of age. Eggleston procured a marriage certifi­ cate and wedded his unfortunate vic­ tim. Her parents did not permit him to live with her, nor has she since been his wife save in name. She is now 18 and he is 60. She brings action for di­ vorce on the ground that she was not of legal age when married, and Eggle­ ston makes no defense. Judge Vanderburg has takcu the'case under ad­ visement. Finding the Bond.

Ten miles ahead u u grove of cottonwoods and a spring—behind are thirty half-naked savages on horseback. Here is a frontier scout as the pivot on which the scenery swings. On his way from fort to fort with dispatches his trail has been struck by a war party of Pawnees, and they have hung to it since dark last night, following it across the levels and over the swells ata alow but never-ending gallop. They knew that be was a full hundred miles from help, and they knew that his bloody scalp would add another to their troph­ ies. "Yotl’re a rubbed out man!” said the scout as he looked l>ack at dusk and saw them coming at a alow gallop over his trail. They could not have overtaken him in a dash of two miles,, t ut in a gallop of fifty they would tire him out. At any easy gallop of five miles an hour the mustang forged ahead through the long and weary night, changing his pace when the rider got down and ran beside him. Two miles behind him, riding thirty abreast and covering a front of half a mile, followed the implacable foe, gain­ ing u little, loosing a little, but ever confident. . When the san came up from his prai­ rie bed not a savage was missing. The scout turned in hw saddle and counted them, looked ahead for landmarks and coolly said: "Y ou took the chances and you have lost, but you will die game.” The mustang was almost blown. For the last half hour he had labored heavi­ ly, and had almost been held up by the bits. "The grove would have been a bitter place, but the end would have been the same,” said the seout as he drew up and dismounted. The Indians were two miles away. In ten minutes they would be within rifleshot. "Good-bye, old pard—I u ust do it,”, said the scout, as he took hold of the mustang’s head and drew his knife across the faithful equine’s throat. He wanted a breast-work, and here he had it. Two minutes were time enough to cut bridle and saddle to pieces and then he mounted the body of his dead friend and calmly waited the ap­ proach of Indians. No shout of triumph was sent across the prairie as he was brought to bay. Thatrhadbeen a strange chase. They had suddenly appeared on his trail without a sound, seeming to rise out of some fissure in the flower-covered prairie. Not oncethroughthe.nighthad the scout heard from them except as be dropped from the saddle and placed his ear to the ground. But for the steady thud! thud! of their horses’ feet he might have almost made himself be­ lieve that he was being pursued by shadows. "Sixteen bullets in this Winchester and six in the revolver,” soliloquized the scout as tlie Indians were within a mile of the spot. Did they mean to ride him down f Each rider was bexft over his horse's neck, aud each horse kept the pace he had had for hours. "My sculp is worth the sculp of ten Indians!” said the scout as he raised his rifle, "but mebbe I can’t get over six or seven.” Straight at him rode the line of thir­ ty red-skins until he raised bis rifle for a shot. Then the band ilevided right and left and inclosed him in a circle. Not a shout from any tongue. It might have been called a still hunt. The line was out of rifle-shot at first, but it gradually worked nearer and nearer, and. at last tho report of the scouts rifle broke the stillnes of the morning. "Twenty-nine left!” he said as he threw out the empty shell. Not a shot came irom the Indians in reply. Every warrior threw himself on the opposite aide of hi* horse, and the hardy ponies followed the circle at a steady gnllop. "Twenty-eight left !” said tho scout as he fired again. No shots or shot in reply, but the cir­ cle was growing narrower. "Twenty-seven left!" Three ot the horses in the ring were galloping without riders. "Twenty-six left!” The scout had fired coolly and de­ liberately, shooting every victim through tlie head. His rifle bad a long­ er range than those of the Indiana, but now they were uearenbugh to open in rely. "Twenty-five left!” ho said as anoth­ er savage fell into tho . gross with a wild scream of rage and painFive of tlie thirty were dead. Now a yell runs around the circle, and every horse turns his head towards the com­ mon center and charges the scout. "Puff! bang! pun’! baug! bang!” Three horses went down aud two more riders fell backwards from their saddles. "Twenty-three left!” counted the scout, as lie dropped the gun and lev­ eled his revolver. They were upon him. They shot at him, struck at him, and tried to ride over him. . "Puff! bung! puff! bang!*’ Five shots struck men or horses, and when the hammer fell for tho sixth time it sent the last bullet into the head of scout. Nine Indians were lying dead around the pivot, three more were wounded, and five or six horses were disabled. All this for n single scalp and tlie glory of shooting a brave man’s dead body, full of arrows, cutting off head, hands and feet, aud ^breaking like demous as the blood spurted, far over tlie rich green grass. When they rode away the body was a shapeless mass. It would rest there during the day, and when night came the wolves would come sneaking from hiding ravines to devour it to the last morsel and then fight oyer the bloody grass.—Free Preu. ISFjVILS.

He takes as his principal basis of calculation the value ol the houses in the French capital; and upon these figures builds up his theory, on tho assumption that tho less wealthy inhabitants spend about onesixth of their income in house rent, while the richer house-holdem spend on an average from one-eighth to one-tenth. It will lie easy for those who agree with him to follow out the theory when they. have the following list of rente, os ex­ tracted from an official source: It ap­ pears that there arc 10,000 private hoqses or apartments, the rente of which range from £160 to £320 a year; 3,000 lietween £320 and £540, and 1,400 between the hitter num and £1,080. Finally, there are 421. houses, or rather palaces, the rent of which exceeds £1,080. It is not necessary to follow out the sums by which tho incomes of these various classes of rich men is traced out, but it may suffice to say that M. Beaulieu reckons that there ere about 8,000 j>crsons in Paris who .pend iaoom™ of £2,000 wd up­ ward; and tins will tie seen by tho aid of tho figures already given to be fully borne out bylhe facts. The conclusion is also • supported by die returns of horses and I carriages kept in the capital, which show . that there ore from 7,500 to 8,000 per- I sons who keep private horses.—Econo- | mitt Francait.

Sir Robert Christison, an Etlinburgh physician, broke off the top of the mountain and had tho rock put in a glass case labeled, “ This is the Top of Ben Nevis."

A Novel Egg-Farm. Tlie Forallono Islands are about thirty mik-s from tlie mouth of Siui Francisco Bay, and thev are the home of inuiunc’*ablo sea-fowls. When »Saa Francisco first began to be a city, its constant cry was for eggs. To supply the lacK of eggs the project of stealing * thoft© of the gulls and tlie muhrs of the Faralloue Islands was undertaken, and it proved -.iccessful, and has ever since’been main­ tained. The birds are too plenty to count or to estimate, as may be inferred from the fact that the egg-gatherers bring in often, or used to gather five hundred dozen in a day; and a great many of theneato are inaccessible, n great ninny others devastated by the rivalry of tho liirds themselves, and, of course, a large part of tho birds nt any one time arc not laying. Tho egg setuvm is from May to August, and if even four hundred dozen is the rule, tho harvest would l»e prettv near 509,000 eggs. The quarrel­ ing between the gulls sad tho muhrs leads to the loss of a good many muhr eggs, which flip gulls at every chance destroy. Tho egg business is conduVtixl by a company wlucli has the right It pays egg-gatherers fivotMEjts a demon, and sells them in San Francisco nt a consid­ erable advance.

How Famous Writers Work. It u curious to recall the manner in which “The Great” seek inspiration and how they work. Al. Alexandre Dumas, fils, is a morn­ ing worker ; the dawn finds him already up. He salutes her with a genial coun­ tenance. His habitual good hamor proves that his health and his mental faculties are in complete equilibrium. He is hungry immediately on rising and attacks a good plate, of soup with tlie eagerness of a rustic. After that ho seats himself,before a largo secretary and writes until noon—in negligent dress, as you may suppose. AL le Comte do Buffon, before entering liis study, al­ ways put on his court dress, did not for­ get his sword, and di not deign, except in lace cuffs, to occupy himself with tlie humble animals whose history ho was writing. There ore few coats more threadbare than those of the master of all. I hnve named M. Victor Hugo. AL Hugo is also an early riser, but he does not live on soup. Before noon he lives only on h» thoughts. Ho writes a great deal and lus heart is in the work, hi his long walks he prepares the work of the mor­ row, and us his memory is prodigious he lias only to write out what his faithful memory dictates.

It seems that early in the winter George W. Case, a fanner, sold Lucias Wilson, one of th© proprietors of the saw mill at Knapp’s Corners, some logsand standing tim­ ber, the understanding in regard to the latter being that Wilson should cut nothing under eighteen inches. Wilson’s men came on to cut and Case noticing that they ' were cutting timber that they hod no right to, noti­ fied them and also Wilson of their er­ ror, asking the latter to mark his tim­ ber to prevent misunderstandings. Wilson agreed to be ou hand upon a certain day to mark the timber and pay for it. The day came but Wilson did­ n’t, nor did ho until a week or ten days had elapsed, when he paid Case a port'on of the purchase price of the tim­ ber, but did not mark the same, and as bis men persisted in cutting small tim­ ber Case forbid theiu with a warrant. Thursday morning Wilson came on with-two men whom lie set to work. While they were cutting a trw) that had not been sold, Case appeared on tbeoeeq© with a cudgel and ordered them to quit. Wilson swore he would have every stick of timber on that pleCc’. Case took by the coat-collar to Dersua^e him to leave, but let go when and attention. During the last five years, there have been 91 different ptrsons cared for at the farm, there being an average of 18.2 continually for, the whole time. Occasionally some person who is not a settled resident of the county, will receive an order from one of the proper officials, instructing the overseer to take them in charge and care for tirem, and the overseer by his suavity and tact will draw from the inmate, infor­ mation regarding his real home, and some place where he has friends, and in every instance of this kind they have been sept away, thus saving to the county much expense that would other­ wise have been incurred by,supporting them there. Several children who have been sent there have been provided for with com fortable homes in some family who wished to take a child to bring up, and others have been sent, to the State school at Coldwater, and thus provided with school privileges, which will en­ able them to become qualified to care for themselves and not bo dependent upon the public for support. An amusing incident is related of an old couple, who had found in this place a comfortable home for some time, while the old house was occupied as a residence.

Carpenter breathed hut last in thia city this morning at 9 JO, aarroanded by his family, who have tenderly nursed him through his long UImbs, by his home physician. Dr. Fox of Milwaukee, his local physician, and TW Art et Xot BwtacThe art of not hearing should be taught in every well-regulated family. It u fully as important to domestic h*j> pine** aa a cultivated ear, far which *o much money and time are expended. There are so many things which it is painful to hear—very many which, if heard, will disturb the temper, corrupt simplicity and modeety, detract from contentment and happineoa—that every one should be educated to take in or abut out sounds, according to their pleasure. If a mm! falls into a violent passion and calls ns all manner of name*, at the first word we should shut oui ears and hear no more. If in our. quiet voyage ot life we find ourselves caught in one of those domestic whirlwinds of scold­ ing, we should shut our ears as a sailor would unfurl his sails, and, making all tight, scud before the gale. If a hot and restless man logins to inflame our feelings, we should consider what mis­ chief these fiery sparks may do in our magazine below, where our temper is kept, and instantly close the door. If, as has been remarked, all the petty things said of one by hcxxllees or illnatured idlers were to lie brought home to him, he would lawome a mere walk­ ing pin-cushion, stuck full of sharp re­ marks. If we would be happy, when among good men we should open our ears, when among bad men shut them. It is not worth while to hear uhat our neighbors say aliout our cliildreh, or what oar rivals nay about our busi­ ness, oar dress or our affairs. This art of not hearing, though un­ taught in the school, is by no means un­ practiced in society. We have noticed that a well-bred woman never hears a vulgar or impertinent remark. A kind of dwcrect deafness saves one from many insults, from much blame, from not a little connivance in di-.honorable con­ versation. — Un ilfd. jPretf/yl/Tiaik Almost a Defeat, A gentleman who came over the Cum- Grant, the then President, ou board, tells an anecdote.

What an unfortunate dis­ closure!” Tux great publishing house of Har­ per k Brothers waa founded by four young men, graduates from the printing found the bodies of slain men, now in the street, now in a ditch, now in the river. There were young men and old; all had been hamueaa and inoffensive citizens in their lives, and—all had been bibliophile®. A dagger in an invisible hand had reached their hearts; but the afarin had spared their purses, money, and rings. An organized search waa made in the city, and the shop of Don Vincente wm examined.

He replied in ® quiet voice, demanded that his collection should be mode over to tho Barcelona Library, and then confessed a loftg array of crimes. He had strangled his rival, stolen the “ Ordinscions," and burned the house. Th® slain men were people who bed bought from him books which he could not really bear to port with. At hia trial his council tried to prdvo that his confession was false, and that ho might hav® not hi® books by honest mAAna. It wifi StjJecied that there was in the world only one book printed by Lambert Palmart in 1482, ana that the prisoner must have stolen this, the only copy, from th® library where it wm treasured. The defendant’s counsel proved that there was another copy, in th® Louvr®; that, therefore, there might be more, and that the defendant’s might have been honestly procured. Hero Don Vincente, previously callous, uttered an hysterical cry. Said tho Alcalde: “At last, Vincente, you begin to under­ stand tho enormity of your offence?" “Ah, Signor Alcalde, mv fcnw wm clumsy, indeed.. If yoii only know how miserable I urn?” " If human justice prove inflexible, there is another justice whose pity is inexhaustible.

Children-in-arms generally enjoy ex­ emption from Customs' duties, and even the octroi officials stationed at the “barrienC of French and Italian citiea, fiscal martinets though they be, are wont to allow these innocent creatures to pass them free of duty. There ore. however, exceptions to every rule. One day, among the passengers in on omnibus undergoing the usual inspection at the Porta Garibaldi of Milan wus a ruddy­ cheeked wet nurse, bearing on her lap an infantine treasure, carefully' swaddled, its youthful lineaments hidden from view by a thick white lace veil It seemed a baby of excellent conduct, by no means addicted to infuriate screaming, or even to the complacent gurglings affected by some infanta, but wrapped in a profound noiseless slumber. “That is a remarkably quiet child of yours,’’ observed the searching official to the nurse. •Yea. indeed it is, dear little angel,*' rejoined the latter; “it hardly ever cnee, the sweet poppet, and when it does whimper a tittle I can quiet it in a mo­ ment with a lump of sugar.'* *• It must be quite a treasure,’’ replied he of the octroi; ‘just step down, there's a good woman, ana bring it to my office, will you. I should like to have a lock at it, being a family man myself." The nurse grew pale; she had, how­ ever, no valid excuse for non-complianoo with the request, ao she desfiandod from the omnibus and followed th® fatherly official into his bureau, where, strange and a-d to tall, the extraordinary pheda- eonaisted of fourteen pounds of fine Bologna sausage, neatly packed up ia th® snow white robes of guiloteas baby­ hood.

Whether carelessness waa at the bottom of tbia calamity or tint in a question hereafter to be decided, but such accident* have become so frequent that some steps should Imj taken to de- tenmoo the true cause, aud remeve it it possible. , ,. Temperance men wishing to found ■eatlenienta where no liquor can bo •olt) will be interested in the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the case of Colorado Springs settle­ ment. Building lou were there sold with the condition annexed that intoxieating liquors should ever be vended or manufactured on them, and thia condition having been violated by a grantee, who attempted to open a liar­ room, suit was brought to eject him. His defense wns that a man has the right to do anything not prohibited by law'on his owu property, but the Supreaue Court has decided against "him, and lias tuljndged his title forfeited by his hteech of the condition in his grant. This state is full of people who arc tzyirig to prove that to restrict and prohibit the sale of liquors will have effect of incresing its use. The unprej-’ ndieed observer will remember that tliis state changed from a partially pro­ hibitory law, which was so defective that it was never executed to a license law. ’Tin true that since this law went into effect there has been a' decrease in the use of liquor but it is wholly owing tn the temperance wave which swept over the country in the form of red and biae ribbon societies during the past two or three years. The effort j ust now ou the part of interested jiersons to show that any iuterferenoe with the sale of liquor i« provocative of intem­ perance and crime’ is one of the most unmitigated pieces of sophistry ever indulged by any party which desires to make the wrong appear the right. ■ • • w y Notwithstanding the. prosperity of the country, the state of the commercial world is Dot without several grains of alloy.. In the first place, we have been visited thia winter with numerous and serious tires, involving a large destructtion oLproperty. In the second place the failures hayo been too numerous, especially of late. A few days since a bank failed in Kansas City, another went into liquidation at Adams, N, Y.; two insurance companies decided to’ wind up business on aecount of losses —one in New York City, the other at Rochester, Pa. The r.ry gootla trade had several comparatively large fail­ ures, that , of Frpedman Brothers <Sc Co., Detroit, being the largest. Among the latest was Pyke & Ford,shoe deal­ ers, Lafnj-ctte, Ind., for $25,000, and one or two others of lessor note. In the New England States, especially in MaMaebuMtts, the. failures have been so numerous as to occasion comment. They were mainly those of small tradera or manufacture* with limited capi­ ta!. f _ Jeff Davis’ history of the “Lost Cause,’’ which will shortly be issued, will doubtless reach a very large sale in this country, and for a time, at least command more attention and provoke wore criticism timn any work that lias yet appeared in America.

Full many a harsh refusal and profane snub fell to the lot of Father Ryan, as he went from mine to mine on pay-days, in his efforts to gather into the treasury •f the Lord, a small part of tho hard earning*, much of which was otherwise destined to cross the green cloth of the , gaming table, or di. appear in the till qf the bar-room counter.' The pay-days of the mines iu our camp were from the 1st to the 4th of each mouth; but in the year when Father Ryan was building his chapel, two of the largest works announced that their mines would pay oft on the day before Christmas, and shut down ' for repairs during the holidays. Now, about half way between these shut-down mines and the town there was a little swale in the hill-side at an abrupt turn in the road. In thia little ■wale, nnd on a level with the roadbed, an enterprising spirit graded into the hill, forming a smooth, level apace. On the front half of thia level, and occupy­ ing about half the space, the man of ' enterprise erected what tho poets call a hostel He, that*is to say, a place of re­ freshment—mostly alcoholic and nico­ tinic—for the accommodation of the constant goers to and fro between the town and the mines. It waa a rough log-on-end building, roofed, with willows overlaid with rye­ grass, and weighted down with a coat­ ing ot earth. The two ends fitted up against the rocky sides of the graded recess. The front was nothing impos­ ing as to architecture, and the rear was like the front, only instead of facing any road view.it formed one side of a square, unroofed theatre, the other sid«Mi of which were walled about by the quarried faces of the natural rock. Th j real theater bad a native rock floring. quarried and chipped smooth, for no purpose originally other than for u place of storage for empty barrels, box­ es. etc. But shortly after the inaugu­ ration of alcoholicenteriainment iu the house, and before the yard could be dedicated to ite intended use, there waa an impromptu wrestling bout in this convenient but crude arena, and from that day forward the house and place became known far and wi<e among the silver bills as the “Collar and El- On New Year's Day the dollar and drinking, smofcingaod proKinr’.

Then turning to the challenger, who still sat in bis corner: “When and where do you propose to wrestle F “Now and here, in the back yard, on the stone floor.” “What boldr “Collar and elbow.” "Gentlemen,” said Father Ryan, blandly, as he turned to the crowd, “if one among you will be kind enough to put up the money, with the help of God I’ll try my best to win it” "Here’s your money!” said the bar­ keeper, spanking the heavy gold twen­ ty on the board.

This time there were seriou* inquiries to know if either 6ne of the men were hurt. “Hurt Y Xis, indade I am; but I’m not injured.” “Fm not injured either, but Fve got as much of this thing as 1 want at pres­ ent;” said Nate, and then added, “we’ll postpone the other fall until next New Year’s.” No, we won’t!” shouted the crowd; "that's a dead give away.” tb, boys.

Fve done my level best to save my money and to win his, but it can’t be done. The best I cau do is to fall with him. I throw up the sponge. The money goes in the bat.” At this speech there was cheering and grumbling, but the cheers predominat ed. After the commotion ceased the padre said: “Gentlemen, my opponent has acted throughout this just like a Christian knight and a chivalrous spirit, and I wish to say that, if there is dissatisfac­ tion with his conclusions, I will waive ;uiy claim that I may have upon the *utn of money at issue in this wager ; and. further, if he is willing, wo will, turn and turn about, wrestle with any dissatisfied peraon or persons, one at a time, of course, until there is uo shad­ ow of complaint of unfairness. But I want it understood that all we earn goes into the hat.” “I’m willin, and I’m agreeable to that last prop, but my twenty goes into the hat all tho same, and no more jaw-bone about it,” Baid Nate. . There being no taker* of the proposi­ tion, the wrestlers resumed their ordi­ nary garments. The egg-uog drinkers began again, while the priest, after stowing the col­ lected money away in his various pock­ ets, placed his hat upon his' head, took .mother glass of wine in compliment of the season, then shook hands all round and said t “Gentlemen.*let all your mirth be seasoned with moderation, all your contests with kindness, and so strive, in season and out, that all your days shall produce good citizenship. I am deeply obliged to you all for the hearty fainieu and squareness of my reception to-day. Good-by.” It is needless to add that tho “bit of u chapel” was entirely finished, and that Nato Smith, with "the boys,” drops in now and then on Sunday— "not,” os he says, “that I care for hal­ lelujah in Latin, but ju*t to give the padre a send-off.” A building that has been disfigured by a storm, may be built up, repaired, and placed in respectable shape—it is almost next to impossible However, for this to be done with a disfigured character of raau or women.

But to the LIGHT RUNNING DOMESTIC er, no peraon associated directly with or indirectly with thio college appeals eer, irreligious views, miaanthrophy and brilliant poetic genius makes the name of Byron. One indistinct!vely seeks the quarters of the admiring late friend of the poet Eton—the poorest, Francis Hodgson. You review the life of the poet and poorest simultan­ eously as you wonder about thia locali­ ty. The Childe Harold of one and the "Memoir” of the other, unbidden come before you. How the poorest, in bis "Memoir” provokes you to remember the scoffing brilliancy of the poet against everything religious: I am no Platonist, I am nothing at all, but I would sooner be Pauiician, Manichean, Spinorist, Gen tile,Tyrrhenian,Zorobestian, than any one of the seventy-five villanioas sects who arc tearing each other to pieces for the love of the Lord and hatred of each other. Again the Byronic student will charge bis mem­ ory in this place when reverting to that still mysterious marriage which the tearful Lady Byron says was “one of tho se verest of trials” initiated by Mm, with the deepest determination of revenge, avowed on the day of my marriage, and executed ever since with systematic and increasing cruelty. What a peculiar fascination the com­ mon curiosity of our nature creates over this enigmatical alliance and for­ ding separation. She continues: “My security depended on tho total aban­ donment of every moral and religious principle, against which bis hatred and endeavors were uniformly direct­ ed.” How resignedly she determines never to reveal the details, yet how boldly she avers he knew them, and that they were the couse of the sudden estrangement. “He does know, too well what he affects to inquire,” she says to Byron’s “WhyF And to the charge of insanity, how resignedly she submits as a consolation.

Then comes another tremendous ucking of the Boers, followed bv another list of his own killed and wounded, a gratify­ ing assurance that the Boers again must have sufferered severely, and a promise that as soon as he receives much needed reinforcements He will hive the Boers a more tremendous licking than ever. If victories go on at this satisfactory rate, some fine morning may rise on a dispatch from Mark Tapley to the effect that the Boers have been pretty nearly annihilated, that nothing could possibly have sayed them from total rout but the loss of his own force.

Hot Baud a Good Exd-Fbl.dow.— Tho comfort which a hot-water bag, or even a hot brick, may afford a prison on retiring, chilled, is very great, and, beyond this, the use of some such warmth-producing appliance i* useful a* a health preservative and restora­ tive: but one of the most convenient articles to be used a* a bed-warmer and in a sick-room is a sand-bag. Get some clean, fine sand, dry it thoroughly in a kettle on the stove, make a bag about eight inches square ot flannel, fill it with the dry sand, sew the opening care­ fully together, and cover the bag with cotton or linen cloth. This will pre­ vent the sand from rifting out, and will also enable you to heat the bog quickly by placing it in the oven or on the top of the stove. After once using this you will never again attempt to warm the feet or hands of a sick person with a bottle of hot water or a brick. The sand holds the heat a long time, and the bag con be tucked up to the back without hurting the invalid.

VILLAGE CAUCUSES. And Hwr Environs. A citizens’ caucus, for toe purpose of nominating village officers, was held at the Opera House on Wednesday night The call had been made early in the week, and the attendance was large.— John. M. Roe was Jchosen to pre­ sided over the meeting. Upon taking the chair he stated that he should insist upon living order, consequently the audience, should keep their seats, and one of the tellers would go around with pencil and paper, so that every man should have a chance to vote, and the other follow up with the bat and gath­ er in the votes; that the proper place to present candidates wasljy rising and naming their man. As a suitable nom­ inee for President C.W. Smith present­ ed the name of W. H. Young, and E. Chipman, Esq., the name of Orno Strong. The formal ballot resulted as follows: W. H. Young 83, Orno Strong 43. The result of the caucus was the nomination of the following ticket: —Next Thursday is St. Patrick’s day in the morning to every Irishman in the land.—league or no league to the contrary notwithstanding. —The report is current that Dr. Wickham will move the two small buildings off his lot on Main St., and erect a large store, early in the spring. —The postofficc has undergone a ren-J ovation, new boxes been added and the * counter taken out, thus making a neat, tidy and commodious place for both public and postmaster. —Georgia Hubbard is the proprietor Not seven hens, which, from Dec. 1st, ‘1871 to Dec. 1st, 1880, l»yed 140 dosen eggs.

There was the most per­ fect satisfaction on the part of Logan, Chandler, Conkling,etc. The patronage of tiie government was distributed in exact accent with their ideas and all was ’ •<barmony”of the most beautiful order. But in 1874 the country l>egan to cast heavy Democratic majorities, and in 1876 the Republicans had loat fourteen states nnd l>oth houses of Congress. Then followed an era of diaoord so vi­ olent that it was with great dificulty tliat President Hayes secured the con­ firmation by the Senate ot his Cabinet appointments. Mr. Hayes, instead of cultivating harmony, deliberately fos­ tered digcord, and soon tl.e tide began to tarn. The.States that bad been lost to the Republican pajty, began to come slowly back ; the country prospered ; the government debt was rapidly re­ duced : resumption of specie payment accomplished; the government credit improved, and all signs of an honest, satisfactory government increased.

Tbrir view. policy, Mid whose method* of adminis­ tering the civil service is the essence of all that ia villainous, with a legislative record too frequently blackened by votes in aid of corruption and jobbery. Mr. Garfield has an opportunity, as President, to achieve a grand success, and leave behind him a glorious record. If he shall consider the presidential officeaaa trusMuid endeavor to faithfulJy and impartially execute the laws with equal justice to all, he may strengthen his party indefinitely. But probably this cannot be accomplished without a stern fight with the machine. Has he the stomach and gri^'for such a contest! We shall see what we shall Since writing the above the inaugura­ tion of Gen. Garfield has taken place. The inaugural address is brief, compre­ hensive nnd encouraging. The Cabi­ net appointments of Mr. Garfield are not really inspiring. The appointment of Mr. Blaine to the office of Secretary of State is undoubtedly made on the score ot services rendered by Mr. B. in aid of Mr. Garfield's nomination and election, but ou the ground of proper qualification for the office, is unfortu­ nate. Mr. Blaine has but a limited un­ derstanding of the needs of our foreign commerce, has never had any minister­ ial experience, bos but slight knowl­ edge of other countries, is no lawyer, and is under a cloud arising from an investigation of his railroad jobs while in Congress. To the acknowledgment in ono of his letters—unearthed during the investigation—of having used his influence as Speaker of the House to pass a bill in favor of railroad specula­ tors and afterwards claiming his share of the profits, he has never attempted nrj explanation. The appointments of Attorney General and Postmaster Gen­ eral can be heartily endorsed. The other appointees arc new men and their fitness for their positions is yet to bo determined. , , Christian Wandschneider, a farmer living near Mt.

When Jacob became a fugitive from the anger of his brother Esau, he took stones and laid them for a pillow. In some nations a sort of cricket, of wood, is regularly used for the same purpose. The proper object of the pillow is, not to raise the head above the level of the body, but to fill out tho difference be­ tween the level of the shoulders and tliat of the head when the body is on its side. And this is-the natural position, for it is seldom hate to sleep on the'back. Hence, the pillow should be con­ structed simply to famish the needed support for the head, with the body on tho side. It should not be too large, and yet be large enough. It should enable the head to retain its natural po­ sition, neither bent down toward the pillow, nor raised upward out of line with the recumbent body. This position is more important than some think. For all tlie blood of tlie head must pass down tiirough the large veins of the neck, and, if these veins are much lient, they impede the return of the. blood. It is, of course, specially objectionable to sleep on the back, with tlie head on a thick pillow, since there is no projier space for one, and the neck is more bentand the flow of blood checked. Further, pillows of feathers should never lie used, for the head sinks into them and liecoines unduly heated. The old rule, “ Keep the head cool add the feet warm,” is always a good one, but it js particularly necessary at night, nat­ ure herself pointing in this direction, since, by a wonderful contrivance, she arrests the activity of tho brain, and renders sleep pocuble by greatly duninisliing tlie flow of blood to the brain. Whatever heats the brain sends blood There is nothing equal to the hair pillow, the year round. For common use, in the countey, thesoft inner leaves of corn-hunks make good pillows.— Youth’8 Companion.

About the first to observe this .»ew Englidiman Mamed George Bailey, who is now recognized by his followers as the pioneer rourosd-ticKet printer of tho country. He commenced the business on an extensive scale in Buffalo, in about 1860, and a few years since retired with on ample fortune. By making tho business a si>eaialty he soon secured the patronage of nearly every railroad in this section of tho United States. He had machinery and presses built exclusively for this jjarticnhir line of work, and, of oourse, revolutionized tlie whole business, much to tho disgust and financial loss of hundreds of other printers in distant sections. But the business was too growing and promising to be long confined to a single section, and, through tlie genius and pereevmance of an indomitable Yankee, nearly one-half of tbe railroad-ticket business of tho country has been secured to Boston. Over 100 railroads are sup­ plied with their tickets from Boston. The number of passengers which any given road may curry during a year does not by any means indicate the number of tickets which that road consumes. Forms ore often renewed, and old issues of thousands and thousands of tickets destroyed without being used. Every ticket office, whether largo or small, ha* to keep on hand a far greater number of tickets than there is likely to be any call for. Probably fifty tickets are printed against every onb tliat is sold. -Thus, for instance, if a road like the Boston and Albany carried 10,000,000 of passengers in a year, a baas of 500,000,000 tickets would be required to keep all their offices supplied. As before intimated, the presses and machinery required: uro very complica­ ted and expensive. Ordinary printing paraphernalia will not answer,»for, be­ side printing tho usual face of tho tick­ et, every one has to be numbered and counted. This fe all done automatically i by a single impression, and common lo­ cal tit&cts are thus turned out at a rata of not less than 25,000 per hour, and coupon tickets at a speed <Jf about 3,600 i»er hour. The local tickets, after they nave come from the press, are again counted bv an ingeniously-contrived machine, which never makes a mistake, and tho coupon issues are counted by girls. All this having been done, tho ticket* are divided into package* of 100 each, and when delivered to the road* a receipt for the exact number is required. Many roads from a distance telegraph their orders in tho morning, and in tho afternoon 500,000 tickets ore shipped in response. During the excurium season the establishment is often kept running day and night—Boston Herald. the oven in the center of tbe village, to .bake it immediately after kneading. On arriving there the dough u divided into portions weighing about three pounds each. Two long, narrow, wooden table* an trestle* are then placed down the room, and a curious Bight may be seen. About twenty man, bakers, come in and range themselres on one side of the table. A lump of dough is handed to the nearest, which he begins kneading and knocking about with all his might for about three or four minutes, and then panes it on to his neighbor, who does the same, and so on successively until all have kneaded it, when it be­ comes soft as new putty and ready for the oven. Of course, os soon m tho first baker has handed the lump to his neighbor, another lump is given to him, and so on until the whole quantity of dough is kneaded by them all. The bakers’wives and daughters shape the loaves. for the oven., and some of them are very small. They are baked imme­ diately. Moisture in the House. In all the dwelling rooms of a house, says a writer, winter brings increased use with leas ventilation. Consequent­ ly. little defect* of cleanliness that quite take care of themselves in the -summer .may cause much trouble in winter.' Ty­ phoid fever is more ot a winter than a summer disease. Most of the epidemics affecting the ’ skin arc mor* apt to pre­ vail in Uie winter or early spring. Their relationship to confined dwellings nnd to the aggregations bolivbf persons and things during the cold months is no longer doubted. Whether filth will or­ iginate this or that disease will long be a question of doubtful disputation ; but that filth is the nestling place of disease and chiefly gives it extension and viru­ lence is no longer doubted. Home of our physicians an now turning close at­ tention to questions of winter salubrity. It is claimed that much of the value of Florida in the winter is owing to a cli­ mate which permits one to bo much in open houses. To those st all disposed either to pulmonary or bronchial ail­ ments our modes of heating and of winter ventilation are very embarrassing. Carbonic acid mingles too much with the other gases given out from coal, and produces irritation of the breathing ap­ paratus. The dry heat parches the skin, and so embarrasses tlie functions of interior organs. The value of the bath is as great in winter 4s in numuier. Indeed, in city life it seems almost in­ dispensable as a means of overcoming tho undue dryness and restoring the proper temjxjraturo through the skin. In the last few years there has been much discussion u to the need of moist­ ure, as provided in the furaac* or on stoves. The only certain \ruy is to test tli* amount of actual moisture in the room atmosphere. It is hardly possible to provide so much moisture in this way as to got those effects which we get in r.ummcr from excessive moisture in tho atmosphere.

Moody, the Evangelist Twenty-four years ago Mr. Moody was a smart young Chicago salesman, who ot the aggressive spirit of Christian proselytism in him which had to have a vent. • Not being able to get a class, he picked up eighteen bare-headed and bare-footed, rugged and dirty urchins, and marched them into the North Wells street Sabbath school. Not satisfied even then, he kept going out into tho streets and getting more, turning them over to new teachers as he brought them in. Then ho organized a mission school of his own, renting a saloon in one of tjie vilest quarters of tho city to hold it in. Ont ot tliis has grown’ tho great Chicago Avenue Mission, or “ Mr. Moody’s Church,” as it is called now, which is one of tho most attractive points of interest in the city to strangers. When the North Market Mission build­ ing, as it was then known, was swept away in tho great fire, Mr. Moody built tbe present extensive edifice. Tho money to build it and- to buy tho ground, amounting to nearly $100,000, was con­ tributed by tha scholars of various Sun­ day schools throughout the country in small contributions, aided by a few of Mr. Moody’s personal friends, some of the mosey coming from as far away as China. For nearly twenty years this mission was tho scene of "Mr. Moody’s noblest Christian efforts, the object of his tenderest solicitude. Through heat and rain, in storm and ice and swelter­ ing weather, he tramped through the most forsaken districts of the city, form­ ing the acquaintance of the poorest class of children and theirparents,and bringing into play every device his tact ana ex­ perience could suggest to get them to go to church and Sunday school In his sermons ho lets drop some stay bits of personal history bearing upon life-trials and rebuffs at this period; m, for in­ stance, where he tells of boys throwing old boots and shoes after him and oc­ casionally smashing the windows of his meeting house; but it is only here in Chicago, and by accidental encounters with those familiar with the circumstan­ ces that one can form an adequate idea of the difficulties and even perils that Mr. Moody braved in these early days of Ids missionary ministry. There are man v persons, now living in Chicago, who tell of thrilling escapes which Air. Moody had from tx'rsonal violence in his efforts to bring the refining'nnd elevating influ­ ences of Christianity to the doora of the very refuse of the city’s loreign popu­ lation, at a time, too, when the law and order were not as generally prevalent aa now.—CAicago Correspondence.

Every good housewife knows that an iron kettle used for heating water that holds lime in aolution will in. a short time become coated with tliat substance. This being a poor conductor of heat, it will of course take a longer time to heat the water than when the kettle is new. Copper or tin vessels do not become coated with lime. The reason is that iron has an affinity for lime, which the other metals have not Bat this affinity can lie overcome by coating the inner surface of the vessel with a compound of tannic add and iron, wtiieh is soluble in water and will not precipitate Hme. This is easily done. Take a new tea­ kettle and put a handful of oak bark into it, fill with water, and keep it boil­ ing for three or four hours, filling it up from time to time as the water boils away. The iron will got a jet-black coat of tan nate of iron and will be proof against lime. Care must be taken tliat this ket­ tle does not»boil dry and beenrt • heated to redness. A hoot a little I -dow that point will destroy the coating. If the lime can bo fully removed from an old teo-kettle, it can lie coated in tho same manner as a new one, but will require a longer time, and j»erhaps it will be nec­ essary to repeat tho boiling two or three times. —Excha nge. Fallacies of the Learned. Seneca, Claudian, Basil, Augustine, Gregory, Jerome, and perhaps Thucy­ dides, agreed in the belief that crystal ia simply iee strongly cohgealed ; aud such men on Scaligcr, Albertus Magnus, and Brassavolus assented to the projxjsition. It is, however, but fair io say that there were always opponents to this theory. Pliny denied tlie aseertion, and in lus company we find Agricola, Diodcrus Siculus, Cassius Bernardus, and otiien.. Of course, tho test of specific gravity settles tlie matter at once. As for astronomical and geographical fallacies, their name ia legion. Xenophanes as­ serted that tho earth had no bottom : Thales Milesian averred that it floated on water, and almost every old writer has his own pet craze al»out tlie problem.

He is a gentleman by birth riderabte powelr of oratory. It is mar­ vellous therefore, that he could (have really believed it was iu his power to entirely stop the legislative machinery of this empire, but the prolonged sit­ tings in Parliament are not the only subjects of protest at present.__ A specie* of social rebellion ia going on in fashionable circles, nnd people are protecting against the inordinately long dinners which have been a grow­ ing eyU for some time past. It has beep no uncommon thiug for the Jcompany to ait at a table from 8 or 8:30 untiltO-.3O and even 11. During this time jKnno five-and-twenty courses have to struggled through. Several sensible people have joined in a raid against -the-system and will accept no invitation to dine unless they have the as­ surance that it will not be a long din­ ner. Mr. Parnell tripe to France and poor Mr. Gladstone trips on the sidewalks. Mr. Parnell is represented as prostra­ ted by nervous prostration and flies to Paris to gain a little quiet. Mr. Glad­ stone is prostrated by stepping on a piece of frozen snow and ran imminent danger of cracking his skull ou tbe pavement. What a catastrophe that would have been just at this crisis and what a theme for philosophical reflec­ tion. The head of all England broken by tho foot of Mr. Gladstone slipping on tbe snow. As it is, traffic is tem­ porarily stopped in Downing street, and oven his Irish foes will commiser­ ate with the Premier on his temporary suspension, of which be himself was the mover. Thus it is seen that snow­ may prove- a greater obstructor than the fiery spirit of the Parnell follow­ ing. Colonel Gordon, or Chinese Gordon, as he it familiarly called, whoso work among semi-barbarous tribes in various parts of the world has not been recog­ nized as it ought, is among us at pres­ ent. He is unquestionably one of the greatest philanthropists of the day— none tlie less so from the fact that ho has always worked without pecuniary reward, which he will never accept. He was chiefly instrumental in sup­ pressing the rebellion in China, and in­ duced the rebel leaders to surrender on the distinct understanding that their lives would be spard. But the moment the ipaudarins had them in their power they slaughtered them,' whereupon Col­ onel Gordon threw up his command. When Colonel Gordon went to Egypt to pursue the work previously carried on by Sir Samuel Baker, he was offered by the Khedive the same payment as his predecessor had. received—it is said £50,000 down nnd a large yearly salary. The Colonel di dined it all. except a modest sum of £5,000 for his outfit. He is so modest a man, and lias such a dread of being lionized, that ho will not even accept an invitation to a pri­ vate dinner. There is apparent calm for tbe time being in Irish affairs; but it is rather a lull than cessation. Immediately on his return Parnell made his appearance on bis own soil, was received with an ovation, and made a speech that if the coercion bill means anythingfat all un­ questionably places him within its pro­ visions the moment it is passed. He then resumed his seat in Parliament and spoke in a similar strain. This was his defiant answer to Mr. Shaw and to those of the English press, who too hastily accused him of cowardice and deserting his post in tlie hour of dan­ ger. After relieving himself to this ex­ tent he returned to Paris, and the old accusation will, doubtless, revive at his absence. August. The surprising increase of immigra­ tion during February over tliat qi tlie corresponding month of any previous j ear is an indication of the prodigious number of arrivals we may soon expect. Tbe February figures at Castle Garden, N. Y., alone, are 9,755. This is five times as great an immigration as the corresponding one in 1877, nearly three times as great as that of 1878, and even greater, by 1,851 persons, than the un­ precedented arrivals of February of last year, which ushered in the greatest twelve months’ aggregate ever kuown.

J. Potter closed Iris third term of school in the Barnes district, Vt Ville, with an exhibition oq Saturday even­ ing. The exhibition is pronounced a success by all who attended, which were many, as the house was crowded. The stage, being neatly ornamented with pictures and evergreens, was very pleasing to the eye. The programme constated of dialogues, recitations, dec­ lamations, solos, duets and choruses, and was rendered in a manner reflect­ ing credit on both scholars and teacher. Miss Alice Phillips presided at the or­ gan. The services of Mr. Potter have been retained by the school board for another term. —A certain boarding house keeper hud Rome whisky secreted Iiehind the bar in his office not long since, and on Monilnj bethought he would tone up a little before going to the polls, but when ho went for it he found that he had used it all, or taken if to some oth­ er hiding place, or else it had been.sto­ len. He.imagined the latter to be the case, and bounced a couple of the boarders, swearing he would have them arrested if they did not tell where they had hidden his treasure.

In the temperance teapeet the election was the most hotly contested of any ever b.eld in Nash­ ville. There were throe tickets in, the field. The third was called the “Young Men’s Ticket,” and was the same as the “People’s,” except that it introduced Wm, Burgess for Marshal, W. P. Hoyt for Street £om mission er, and Henry Zuschnitt for Constable. The three tickets were united in regard to choice for Clerk, Assessor, Treasurer and one Trustee. We reproduce each ticket: CTTIXXX'STICKFT: Dickinson, Hiram A. Barber. pbo mx’s tictctt: For President,—Wm. H. Young. For Trustees,—Jacob Lentz, Hiram IL DickTOUMQMK'sTICin: For‘President,—Wm. H, Young. For Trustees —Jacob Lenta, Hiram R. Dtekci... vr Thus it will be seen that the contest w»s narrowed down to President and two trustees. Two hundred and seven­ ty-throe votes were cast,—a greater number by 28 than was ever ro’led be­ fore. Of this number 164 were “straights,” 84for “Citizens,” 67 for People’s,” and 18 for “Young Men’s,” The count resulted; For President,— W. H. Young 158, Orno Strong 111. For Trustee?,—David Demaray 139, Jacob Lentz 135, Hiram Al Barber 140, Chas. M. Putnam 132. Minorities, Young 47, Demaray 4, and Barber 7. The polls closed at live o’clock when counting immediately begun. About 8:30 p. m. we were notified of the re­ sult in this manner: We bad gone to bed and sleep. and were awakened by our better half, who had discoved a paste-board box containing a cigar and a note, to wit: “To Orno-Strong with the compliments of the President of the village of -Nashville.” We woulf haw preferred that some one of our friends would have broken the sad news gently.to us, but still we venture to say that we enjoyed the announce­ ment, as it came, far more than Doc, did the drunken mob that held high revelry in front of his residence until long after the midnight hour. Said mob convened, with all the dry goods boxes they could steal from the front ot the stores along both sides of Main 8t. built a bon-fire, and called for speeches expressive of their vic­ tory. Such were made by Jim, Martin Bige Flint. The bank was well repre­ sented, and the newly' elected * Presi­ dent was repeatedly called upon to speak. Finally he stuck bis head out of the door, took a hurried view of bis constituents, said, “Good-night boys,” and pulled it back in again. The crowd were enthusiastic, however, and stuck to their bon-fire, maudlin jargon and Catarwailings until a late hour. A merchant away across Quaker brook was awakened just midnight by a terrible outburst, and jumping out of bed saw the bricks of his store stand out ao vividly that be thought the to-vn was on fire, dressed and started post haste to eave property ; but upon rounding the corner at the foot bridge, discovered ’twas only the bon-fire in* all of its glory, and the noisy rati tiers dancing around it like a pack of Ute Indians on the war path. Another man over in the east part of the village was awakened by the row and seeing the flame®, started down town halloo­ ing “fire,” which turned a number of people out of warm beds and comfort­ able naps. And thus ended the day on whieh our people exercise their right of franchise. The next time the whisky-ites go fishing we would advise them to hitch on a smaller sinker. C. C. W. says "Strong ought to have sent in a'flve-dollar note to each saloon, to be hid out in half-pinta of whiskey, if he wanted to be elected.” ’Twas remarked that more drunken­ ness was prevalent on Monday, than any previous,-election ever held in Nashville, e fact of the saloons be­ ing closed t cut off the half-pint bottle 't expect that a 185 lb. edlYou । • with n 180 lb. doctor and come < best, but we want it dis­ tantly uod that we got as many votes the pound as Doc. did* If we had beeu put even on the whiffietrees, no knowing what might have been in store for Noshvilie. ' —The saloon men have been on the ragged edge since Monday, when we elected a temperance council, and have held several conferences, which result­ ed in a call for a special meeting of the old council to except bonds and other business, on Wednesday eve­ ning. When the meeting hod been called to order, and its object, explain­ ed, with some difficulty, by one of the trustees, E. Chipman, Esq., the worthy President, strenuously objected to the proceedings, saving that they were illegal, rightfully belonged to the new council and that the propetrators of them were “jobbers.” However, not­ withstanding, the retiring council through their bell-wether, T. C. Downing, proceeded to fix saloon keep­ ers’ bonds at $3,000 for the year begining May 1st next, and accept the bond of W. E. Bad, signed by John E. Bar­ ry and C. M. Putnam for that term, by the following vote: Ayes, Down­ ing. Cook, Roe and Olds; Nays, Rey­ nolds and Boston. The bond of Chas. Schiedt was also presented but reject­ ed. The President refused to approve of Buel’s bonds, the same was forward­ ed to the county clerk with the tax on Thursday afternoon, and thus the mat­ ter stands. Public feeling is wrought up to a high pitch over the action of the retiriugcounc.il, and undoubtedly the thing will fail to stick. Such tricky schemes, serve only to strengthen the temperance element in our midst, and if the wfioons of- Nashville don’t strike hard sledding during the'coming year i we shall be surprised.

O» parsnte being such good friends, M Datarally resulted that - Mollie and I followed tbter example. We went to scBaal together, read together, played together; and, somehow, when Mollie was 18 and I 20, -wo agreed to travel toaetber all our lives, ana were very happy in that arrangement; in fact, no other wooM have seemed right or natural, either to ns or our parents. From the earliest days of my boyhood I a fondness for the water, haunting the palatial steamboat* that floated on the great Miasiasippi river, on whose banks rnwtiad tbe city in which we dwelt, and, at ths period to which I am about to refer, I had just secured a position as pilot on a small freight utoamer. It was not much of a position, to be sure, dot was there much of a salary at­ tached to it; but, small as it was, Mollie and I decided that we could make it an­ swer far two people, neither of them ex­ travagant or unreasonable; beside which,. I had hopea of better times to come, aa I had received words of oommsDdation from my employers, and promises of speedy promotion. So, early one bright morning, having obtemed a day's leave of abetmoe, Mol­ lie and I ware married, and, stepping mto a carriage I had hired for tho occa­ sion, w* started off, having decided on a day's excursion to a celebrated cave near by, this being all the wedding trip we could allow ourselves ; not that we cared in the least, however; we were too happy to be disturbed by any shortcom­ ings of sum or purse. . We had scarcely driven beyond our own street, when we were brought to n halt A messenger, whom I recognized as belonging to our steamboat company, hailed ma. “Here is a note for you from the SmErintendent” Thus it ran: Am (ostj to tore to recall your leave for to­ day, but you ranat immediately go on board the MobLUa, which ia ready to Uart up tbe river. Th* pilot U too ill to attend to duty, and you ore appointed to take his place for tho " There goes our wedding trip all to smash 1" said I, as Mollie read the or"Why so?" olio asked. “Yaus** I must go into the pilothoure of ths Mobilia.” “ V*ry well,” khe replied. “ Wo will just go up tbs river instead of to tho cave. Drive on, Bob ; let us go down to tbs wharf in state.” “ Bui you can’t go in ths pflot-house with ms, little goose." ** Ot coons not: bat I can sit on the 4sck outside,** laughed Mollie, “and we can cast languishing glances at each other.” And so it came to pass that I took possessioD of the Motalin’s pilot-house, my heart glowing with love and pride ; with tore, far there, just below me, on the little forward deck, sat my sweet bride; with pride, because the Mobilin was one of the finest of the beautiful flhating palaces of the Mississippi, and to pilot such a one had far years been the height of my ambition. Ths steamer waa fitted up with a double cabin, one above the other—the upper one opening upon * small deck, awwhfag out toward the bow, near the MDtor of which, on a reteed platform, was pteoed the pilot-house.

Suddenly there wan a murmur among the people below, and the next instant a light form flow up the ladder loading to the little deck by the pilot-house, and, before I could say a word, my precious Mollie had thrown open the door, and, closing it again, stood at my side. “Adfollie, Mollie I” I cried. “For heaven’s sake go back, go back I Don’t you sec how the flames are creeping to­ ward us here? Go, go, my dearest, my own true wife I Don’t unman me by making me fear for you.

There is hope for us yet, and, if it oomee to the worst, why”—and a brave, sweet smile crept round her lips—“wo are still together, dear love! ” I saw it was of no use to urge her any more, and, b*sides, something swelled in my throat so that I could not utter a word, so I-just gripped the wheel hard, and looked right ahead, though every­ thing looked very dim just then, and my devoted darling stood calmly at my side, watcliing th* flames thrt were creeping closer and .doser upon us, leaping around the pilot-house like hungry do­ dons impatient for their prey. “Thorne," shouted the Captain. “ come down. Lower her and yourself over the rail. Well catch you. Yoa cannot stay there any longer. We are very near tho shore now, and the rest we’ll take our chances for.’’ It was an awful temptation. I knew that, did I follow tho Captain’s advice, both Mollio nnd I would be safe, for I was a good swimmer, and. should the Ixioi not reach the shore, I could wive her and myself; but thou, if I did this, would I not deliberately expose every one of the 300 souls on board to destruc­ tion ? True, the boat might keep to her course during tbe short *f»nce remaining to be passed, merely from the rapid im­ petus of her approach ; but, again, she might not—and then ? 1 looked at my dear wife inquiringly. “ Stick to your post.

But alas for my devoted Mollie ’ alas forme! Not the pilot-house only, but the entire deck around it war. now sur­ rounded by flames. It was too late to lower ourselves to the deck below 1 The railing was all ablaze.

Clouds. and delicately changing as tha clouds. It is worth while to spend a day in ob­ servation, to note what exhaustless pos­ sibilities of change ae in a few uours' time. One of the commonest shows of clouds—evolution, and one which seems to fallow a certain law. begins with a multitude ot soft globular figures that may cover the entire sky : these dissolve into a host of finely-mottled fish scales, then marshal themselves into ranks like waves of the sea, emerging at last into a thin delicate frabric, like crumpled muslin. On a still summer day, when great masses of soft vapor fill the heavens, the procession of figures is a scene 6f en­ chantment Stately animals stride post, the like of which are never seen again ; broad-winged birds sail into the west, never to return ; grand clouds move by that are turned into mighty chariots on the horizon ; flocks of wLite slioep troop leisurely along into other pasture fields ; tall towers and castles riots out of shape- solve like visions ; nameless forms rise, glide post and vanish into space—until change seems the law of the world and permanence only a myth. When the sun has set, and this dis­ solving view of vapors becomes a painted spectacle, the eye is feasted with color as the fancy is with form. The slow dawn of color, which first tints the clouds' edge, then grows into a warm effusion till the whole mass is irradiated, the rich deepening of hues, the endless shades, the subtle fading away of light, in tbe horizon, u like a poem or a sym­ phony of the old masters. The effect stays in the memory long after the do- Spelling Reform. Spelling reformers can take consider­ able encouragement from the success of the movement in England.

A snake when on t’oe ground moves often with considerable rapidity. Tho head is slightly raised, and tile body and tail progress by moans of tho peables consecutive contraction and elon­ gation to occur. The movement is more or less flat with the earth, and theanake never coils upward, as is often figured in old and some now paintings and en­ gravings. It can erect its head and much of the neck and fore part of the body, and this is also done when the creature is in horizontal coils, and quiescent On moving up a stone or tree tho head, neck and much of tho body may be placed against the more or leas vertical object, and a small portion only of the body may be left on the ground, but in this position the snake is liable to fall sideways. On moving upa tree they do not coil themselves round 'and round it like a rope, but they may do this when still.

There are families which have oven had the honor of dying out in it; and in BL Petersburg, a contom{>orary statea, tho story finds common acceptance that •there is a meadow somewhere on its roof where cows are put out to graaa. Cer­ tain it is that there are huge cisterns on the roof which in winter have to be kept from freezing by heating furnaces in the lofts below. It is said that before the Russian architectural mind thought of these furnaces tho water in the cisterns was kept in a liquid state during winter by red-hot cannon-balls, which after being heated on the roof wore droppod into the water. When one of these forced its way through the lead into a lady’s apartment, nearly setting fire to the palace, the sytem of heating was changed.

It is pretty generally known that the are adulterated, but comjiaratively few people are aware of the extent to which this adulteration is carried on, or what substances are used. M. Hussen, a French chemist of note, has made a laid before ths Academy of Sciences. He finds that Prusman bluer indigo and gypsum, in small quantities, are the principal ingredients employed to im­ part the “face," or "bloom,” to teas, and that in the proportions used they ore very innocuous. This adulteration takes place where the plants are raised ; but more extensive adulteration is sub- have surpassed the Asiatics in their fraud by the use of still more dangerous drugs, such as chromate ot lead and ar­ senicals of copoar, besides making use of comparatively innocuous substances, such as sulphate of iron, stearite, car­ bonates ef lime and magnesia. The Chinese have become most expert in manipulating green teas, which they color with a few simple substances, seme of them poisonous—for example, plum­ bago, Prussian blue, curcuma and kao­ lin. With or without the true leaf of ths shrub, they can produce a tea erf any desired tint In order to give the in­ ferior or false leaf the aroma of the tea, the Celestials mix a quantity of it with certain flowers, especially a species of olive. In short, according to M. Hussen, no injurious proceeding is omitted in tbs Celestial empiie to palm on the outer barbarian inferior or false teas. In ths leading tea-growing districts the Government has a corps of i:.specters who are required to see that the goods are dispatched in a pure state. The I precaution, however, avails little—for at । the shipping ports there is no attempt to I1 prevent ths merchants, or broken, from commencing their fraudulent practices, which they carry on to their heart’s , content In spite of their knowledge of the extent to which this adulteration is carried on, we presume our people will continue to drink of tho cup which is said to cheer without stealing away a person's brains. The Use of Condiments. “a pungent and appetizing substance, aa pepper or mustard; seasoning. Some­ thing used to give relish to food and to gratify the taste." To the question, why do you use pepper on your food ? you reply, because you relish the taste of the pepper. A little thought will, perhaps, convince you that you mistake its use. Is it not more probable that the addition of condiments brings out the flavor of the article of food on which it To rumovb end useful — — astazsl tenure of life.

A young man whose arm had been ampu­ tated was attacked by diphtheria before Leoling took place ; and, instead of the matter incident to that disease being de­ posited in the throat, the greater pormanaged. Dr. Davis profited by this, and in hta next case of diphtheria blis­ tered his patient’s breast, and on this blistered the chief deposits ap­ peared. This was also an easy case of the disease.

A Cakkfui. Dm.—The health de­ pends largely upon the diet. Good food is in many instances better than medi­ cine. How many dishes in common use ought to be discarded from our tables, if we would not become acauainted with that unwelocme visitor, dyspepsia.

There is much choice in the kinds of meat and the manner of prv]*aring them, which wo should always obeervo when cooking fur an invalid guest, or member of the fam­ ily. The fruits .and vegetables should also be selected with great care, and often it is necessary that some special they are necessarily deprived of so much that others indulge in.

There is rest and no sorrow in the beautiful Over There, for all who are faithful in ibis life. Next Monday evening will be the regular annual mooting for the election of officers in the Reform Club. It is hoped there may be a large attend-' ance, as oitriness of importance will be brought before the meeting. The donation for the benefit *of Rev. E. Jones, at tlie residence of Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Truman,on Friday evening, passed off pleasantl>-good cheer, mu­ sic and refreshments being the order of evening. A collection amounting to nearly twenty dollars was taken up. A brief stay’ at the Newton House, Hustings, on Monday, disclosed tbe the fact that - the hotel had been thoroughly renovated, re-papered, etc,, and that the bill of faro was up to its usual points of excellence. Evidently mine host Clever is bound to keep pace with the times, if he don’t lay up a cent. When stoping at Hastings, remember the Newton House, and you will not regret your choice. NUMBER 27.

Last week a sort of a report was made public by one of the papers tn which it was claimed that tn extraordinary­ showing was made by the city officials, and that economy bad been the rule for the past two years. It Is not my purpose to dispute Uic statement made, but to a disinterested specta­ tor It looks as though, with an amount of mon­ ey raised several times greater than ever before, It is no great merit to have saved a small por­ tion of it. It is certain that the amount raised from Uic saloon tax is greater than last year; also that a nice sum remained in tlie treasury last spring uncx|>en<Ied. These two sums, it was then estimated, would be ample to run tlie city for tbe year. But now, at tbe end of the year, we find these funds used up and, and as II looks to a man up a tree, a good round sum U taken from the amount raised fur school pur­ poses, though ostensibly for contingent expen- to come as they have been for the y ear now past, there is not a dollar now in the treasury that can be spared for tbe school debt.

A man was standing one day. with a kind of unoccupied air, a few steps from tbe door of the telegraph office, or 2nd street, Sacramento. What was remarkable about him was that there Was nothing remarkable abort him at all—to the casual eye. He was a man of veryiotdinary appearax.ee, of ordiuary site, ot ordinary complexion, with an ordinary face, and especially an or­ dinary eye. He stood with his} hands idly dewn into the pockets of'a long loose coat, as though they bad dropped tber% themselves, and he had not tak­ en the trouble to poll them.out, and he seemed to be neither thinking of, car­ ing about, nor looking at anything. A boy messenger came tripping out of the telegraph office, taking two or three steps at once,as it has been hand-* somely expressed, and, happening to seethe uninterested man, whom he had seen before, he stopped short and “Oh, here’s one -for you; I suppose I might ns well give it. to you here. Jfou’re Mr. Black?” * The man did nor say that he was ox that he wasn’t, but quietly reached for the dispatch, which the boy handed him and hurried on. Then Mr. Black, with deliberation that would have been fairly agonizing to any one looking over his shoulder, unfolded the paper and rend : tled. “Wa’al, yes, now,” retorted one of the miners, working away. “A day is twenty-four hours,” re­ marked the stuoifl mau sarcastically. “Wa’al, noose it ?” “Then you haven’t knowed of it a day. You’re smart, I admit, but not that smart.” "What'llyou bet?” “Twenty dollars, and drinks all around;” “Done.” In those days a bet, if nothing worse grew out of every slight difference of opinion, no matter how trifling a sub­ ject. Tho money wm staked. “That’s easy.” "Who brought tho news?” “Dave Long*-one of our mess. He’d been dowu to Marysville oyer Sunday, on a bender.” “Where is lie T’ “At our cabin.

William Black was*a Sacramento detective and jrt the time undoubtedly the most sagacious in California. The boat was to leave for Marysville in little over an hour. Mr. Black entered tlie telegraph office nnd dispatched to tho Sheriff of Yuba county the words, “all right.” That evening a mau with a red shirt on—a man of very ordinary appear­ ance—landed in Marysville. He was a miner of course, if one may always judge by Indications, but he had a lazy look, as if weighed down by a woeful lack of energy; and a person might have wondered if ever such a person did pluck up courage enough to climb the mountains. The same hay looking man, later in theevening, waa in secret communica­ tion with the Sherift and several other officials. “At what hour was the murder dis­ covered !” he asked. “Nine o’clock this morning—exact­ ly.’’ “In what way !” “The news came through her hus­ band. He rushed excitedly into a sa­ loon, oxi the edge of the town, saying that his wife was dead, and some one hod killed her. They had lately come from the mines, and were living in a tent of their own, a quarter of mile out of town.

Then he said , to the Sheriff: "He didn’t do iL" , The Sheriff was fairly thunderstruck. “But,” said William Black, “keep1 him custody till you hear from me. Don’t let tlie people get hold of him, though, for I suppose they would lynch him at a venture.” “You might arrest nnd detain any Suspicious-looking perron found in the। neighborhood—always remembering that he’s innocent.” “I will ” Tbe conference thus ended. Next morning a fresh miner made his। appearance at Pine Camp, about fif­ teen miles north of Marysville. Ho was। a very lazy looking man. He lounged about from point to point, gossiping with the miners, bothering them at their work. Some thought be was a. half idiot. He stopped and talked with groups here and there, nnd asked questions about the best place to locate1 tnem. He was green. Then he told them a piece of terrible news—a woman had been foully murdered in Marysville। Her name was Wolf. Her husband done it, it was thought—in fact there। was no doubt of it: Tbe simpleton! That was no news. It had been the। talk of the camp for twenty-four hours. ‘.‘01 Then you knowed it yester­ day?” lie went from claim to claim, spoke to everybody, aud asked particulars। about tho mining prospects; mentioned the murder. "That fellow won’t do much. He’s too lazy looking,” woo remarked more than once. The forenoon was wearing away. The man of unsound mind stopped for the twentieth time and talked to a group of lour who were working a claim. He sat on a lorge stone; he spoke of the murder, actually in­ formed them of it as news. “Why, old fellow,’’said one, “You’ve been asleep.

I told him he’d been asleep, and was behind the age.

He came here psterdav morning at ten o'clock, aud told all about a murder that was not discovered in Marysville til 9. - Did he walk fifteen miles in one hour f” David Long was as pale as death, and he stood trembling from head to foot— the picture of guilt. His comrades looked on. bewildered. “You see," continued Black, by way of explanation, “it was on his guilty mind amHib couldn’t help blurting it out, considering, of course, that the mnrdei Would be discovered at day­ light or sooner. Luckily it was not known ftil 9 o’clock—except to the mnrderer and he has kindly volunteered to expose himself.” « “Curse toy tongue!" exclaimed tho culpriEnfrinding his teeth with rage and fear. “I wish it had been torn out.” “There’s al a ays something," ex­ claimed tbe detective, quietly. “You 'eft do trace—not a shred, no thread, or shoe-string, even a hair; but you came right up here and told on your­ self.” “Dave Long! Dave Long! can this be*" exclaimed one of his comrades, reproachfully. , The crestfallen wretch hung his head and seemed ready to sink to the earth. “You poor devil!” said another of his comrades. “Who’d have thought it ? If it wasn’t for tho ole times’ sake, we’d string you up. Take him away, Mr. Block; let us see him no more.” “If tlie camp finds it out they’ll linch him before you can get away with him,” suggested another. Filled with teror at the prospect, Long determined to make one desper­ ate move for life. With a sudden Sring he released himself from the tective, and darted away toward tlie thicket not far off. He had some hope that his speed might bear him away beyond tbe immediate reach of Black or the others, where he could work off his manacles. But the agile officer bounded after him. aud before he had gone thirty yards, dragged him down. Maddened at his situation, tbe prisoner began a fierce but hop -less struggle, attempting with kicks and blows to in­ flict some injury on his captor; but Black, whose-streugth was extraordin­ ary, clutched him by tbe throat, and soon overpowered him. “Look here!” said he, somewhat heated, “if you carry on in this way the camp will learn what you’ve done, and hang you up to a tree ; and I’U not hinder them. If you will go quietly I can promise you' a fair trial, and you may not be hanged for weeks yet.”’ “L-l-let me up,” he faltered, "and I’ll go with you. “And give me no further trouble?” “No." Tlie dread of being lynched had a miahty influence on him. ,?Sce that you keep your word. then. And mind, if, on the way to Marys­ ville, you make another such a move, I will shoot you down.” And ho allowed him to get up, tak­ ing care to maintain his grasp upon his arm. But the scuffle had already attracted attention, and the miners came run­ ning up from all directions. "What’sthis? What’s the matter?” a score of them asked. They saw by the handcuffs on Long’s wrists that one belonging to their camp was in tbe hands of an officer, and did not like it. They were jealous of tho law, nnd jumping to the conclusion that Long was arrested for merely shooting some one in a little row at Marysville, their first thought was to rescue him. “He shan't go!” shouted one. "Release him!” added another. “Don’t let him take me,” pleaded Dave Long. The crowd began to close in. ‘Stand back!’ thundered the detect­ ive, flourshiug hia revolver. ‘I am de­ tective Black, from Sacramento, and this is my prisoner. If any man dares to interfere I will sboot.him down like a dog.’ Although threats of bullets were not much m those days, the fearless bear­ ing of the officer, who stood firmly grasping the arm of the prisoner, and with a single arm opposing a hum:red reckless men, had its effect, and they stood undecided. Taking advantage of the momentary truce, Black hur­ riedly whispered to his prisoner: ‘If you don’t tell them not to inter­ fere, and that you’ve concluded its best to go with me. I’ll inform them what you've done, and then , they will take you? With tbe halter scare on him again, Long tremblingly spoke to the mob: Never mind, friends. Don’t inter­ fere. I guess rd better fly. 1’11 be all right.’ •What is it you've done Long?' He turned paler then than ever. ‘We must know what it is. Was it a scrape in Marysville?’ •Ye—yes. Never mind. I’ll—IU bo back*—and bls heart sunk at tho thought that*he never would—‘back before long aud tell you al! about it? So die detective was allowed to de­ part with his prisoner.

The plan adopted is to take good care of straw, stalks and Other coarse fodder, dealing it out during the winter months, and keeping their hay until necessity com­ pels them to bring it forth, and this kind of feed is .eaten by stock with a much better relish than straw would be after they have been kept a few months on good hay. Sojne farmers are getting short of grain, but taking the county as a whole, there is enough feed on hand to bring all the stock out in good order this spring. —Mr. Geo. H.

He went on to say, however, that he was glad to notice that the editor had reformed, that strong temperance items were to be found in neaily every issue, that altogether we had one of the best local papers in the State, and that the editor was doing more for the interest of Nashville and vicinity than any other person. “Why,” Mid he, "if Strong should be walking along the road or in the woods in the vicinity of Nashville, and should find a holo in tiie ground, he would go to work and write an editorial, and make 1 out that there were qualities about it that were superior to any other hole in the State.” Mr. Johnson is an earnest temperance worker, and is doing a good work in organizing blue ribbon dabs :in various localities. —A friend tells how a State St man was cursd of a cold: He boiled a little wormwood aud horehound together ant’ drank freely of the tea before go­ ing to bed.

She would not permit dancing at the White House, but she did all in her power to render the administration of Mr. Polk popular. One morning a lady found her reading. “I have many books presented to me by the writers,” said she, “ and I try to read them all; at present thia is not possible; but this evening tha author of thia book dines with the President, und I could not be so unkind as to appear wholly ignorant and unmindful of nis gift. *’ At one of her evening receptions a gentleman re­ marked: “ Madam, you have a very gen­ teel assemblage to-night” “air, re­ pled Mrs. Polk, with perfect good humor, but very significantly, “I never have seen it otherwise.” John C. Calhoun had expected to re­ main in the Cabinet as Secretary of State, and he did not hesitate to say that he was sacrificed to appease the wrath of Mr. Van Buren. Accordingly, James Buchanan became Mr. Polk's Secretary' of State, and Mr. Calhoun soon returned to the capital as a Senator from South Carolina. Equal to the Emergency. A London newspaper tells a curious jiarty. He had been a lover for sdme time, but never quite persuaded himself up to the point of popping the question. During the eventful dinner he learned from the person sitting next him that a rival intended that evening tp make an attack upon lus Dulcinea's ncart. She was sitting some distance from him at the table, and the rival was at her side. He was equal to the emergency, how­ ever, for, tearing a half leaf from his note bqok, he wrote upon it: "Will you bo my wife ? Write your answer, yea or no, upon thia paper, and return it to me." Calling a waiter, the ingenious lover sent the missive to "tha lady in blue at the end of the table—be very careful.” The servant did as dire ted, but the lov­ er in hia anxiety forgot to send his pen­ cil. The lady had presence of mind, however, and—tucking the note into her bosom- —id to the waiter: “Tell the gentleman yea." One afternoon u reporter entered the crowded local room with a countenance upon which satisfaction and self-com­ placency weiV very conspicuously shun pea. As the new arrival swaggered up to his desk the city editor observed him and asked, “ Well, what is it? What have you got?’’ “A------- good item. Exclusive, too, I think.

He played his pile right up, and never growled' if his luck was hard ; and, on every sec­ ond card, he’d stack the limits up In blue. Take it altogether, his luck was hard—sometime* tho hardest, I think. I single deal, seven double shots. "Business for me, of course, but somehow it almost seemed too bad.

The deal was out, and I shook him up, but not a muscle moved, and, raising his face, I. started back in horror at the The Topophone. The'«S<*>n4i/ie American ilescribes the Msyer tonophone, an instrument to deu nninc the exact position of uny source ef sound. It consists of two resonators, or sound receiver*, supported on n shoulder-rest From these resonators flexible tubes proceed to the ears, but those tubes are united in one for part of the length. "When the (wo resonator* face the direction whence a.sound comes 80, 4*, to. xvceive at the sama time the fuime sonorous impulseuud are joined by tube*‘of equal length, the sound waves received from them will necessarily re­ inforce each other, and the sound will be augmented. If, on the contrary, the resonators being in the same position as regards the antiroe << sound, the reKo*tor tulies differ in length by half thu wave length of the sound, tho impulse from the one neutralizes that from the other and the sound ia obliterated. Ac­ cordingly, in determining the direction of tho source of any sound with this instrument, the observer, guided by the varying intensity of the bouei! trans­ mitted by tlto reeonaton, turns until their openings touch the same sound waves simultaneously, which position he recognizes either by the great augmen­ tation of the sound when tho tube lengths are equal, or by the cessation of sound when tl;0 tube lengths vary so that the interference of the sound waves is perfect'* One of the tube* can be lengthened or shortened by means of a telescopic arrangement For navigating in fogs thia instrument will no doubt be The best feed for young chickens is oat meal and com meal mixed, wheat, cracked corn and other small grains.

Sueli like instances are of too common notoriety to need that they be adduced ; but, as I before ob­ served, st the very time that the ten­ dency to do the thing is every day in­ creasing, the pleasure resulting from it is, by the blunted sensibility of thelxxlily organ, diminished, and the desire is irresistible, though the gratification is nothing. There is rather un entertain­ ing example of this in Fielding's " Life of Jonathan Wild,” in that aqpne where ho is represented as playing ut cards with the Count, a professional gambler. "Such," says Mr. Fielding, "was the power of habit over the mind* of these illustrious persons, that Mr. Wild could ■foot keep hu hands out of the Count’s pockets, though ho knew they were empty; uor could the Count abstain from palming a card, although ho was well aware that Mr. Wild had no money to pay him."

Marirrad la Cold B)*od Tbe official returns from the several towns come in slow, but enough has been learned of the elections to es­ tablish the fact that the Green backers have elected supervisors in eight [of the townships and one in the city ‘ of Has­ tings, tbe Republicans in five of the townships and one in Hastings city,theDemocrats in two of the townships, and the Fusionests one. In most of the towhs a remarkable degree of lethargy seems to have taken hold of voters and political workers, os but little more than two-thirds of the vote was polled. Another noticable fea­ ture of tiie election is that the Demo­ crats and Greenbackera hnye walked off with the supervisors in four of the townships, leaving the Republicans nearly all of the rest of offices in tbe townships, where there is from fifty to one hundred Republican minority. Such is the case in Castleton, Woodland, As­ syria and Barry. This demonstrates the fact that the Republicans are some­ what demoralized and disunited ou aoof tiie multiplicity of candidates for the office of supervisor, where heretoa nomination waa equivalent to an election. Of course in such cases all could not succeed, and tiie disappoint­ ed aspirants were either lukewarm in their support of the successful candi­ date, or absolutely worked against his election, However, The News has nothing to complain of in the matter, and trusts that the men elected are all worthy and competent, and will do the business of the county in on economic­ al, nonpartisan, and busine<s-likemanner.

Martin Texter a young man, aged 22, was killed on Sunday last, at the resi­ dence of Benjamin Trego, about five miles north-west of this city, in the township of Irving, and was found about one o'clock in the afternoon ly­ ing in his blood, with his head cut and mangled, and his brains scatterd all about the room. He must have gone to the house of Trego about ten o'clock, and evidently had been dead several hours,, when his condition was discov­ ered by a brother of Trego, who came after Trego to go home with, him to dinner.

It is not for me to say that be is saire or insane. I would not say it even if I knew, and I certainly don’t know any­ thing about it, except what I hare written, and that I know only from heresay. A jury will have little dif­ ficulty in answering that when it comes before them. I will only say that it is not at all an improbable theory. Yoar readers will remember the case-at Quimby quite recently, where a mother was'killed by her son, and also tbe Freeport case where a mother killed £ of her children—both insanity cases, and no motive seeming to exist in thia case, naturally leads the mind to look at'it in that way.

Many voung men, fresh from college, crammed with learning and ambition, desire to become journalists that they niasaea which uro reached by a news­ paper. They do not understand that journalists ore not turned out of universi­ ties readv made. Journalism is a pro­ fession which can only be mastered after long years of active service—on the name principle that to be a good lawyer, mechanic, one must have practical ex­ perience, and eon attain prominence think they could shape the destiny of a nation if they could only get control of the columns of some newspaper. Per­ haps a young graduate does get on op­ portunity to write editorials for some country weekly. Hs launches a bolt, and then anxiously awaits the report He generally waits in vain, and is both pained and chagrined to find out that Lis majestic utterances have attracted, no attention whatever. Perhaps he gets a position on one of the big dailies, and, with a proud heart, ho hands in to the managing editor a long article, over which he has spent several days and nights in writing and rewriting, only to be sharply told that such composibims concise statement of nows. He is per­ haps detailed to write up some congenial subject, and is ordered to have it done nt a certain time. Hampered thus, pin­ ioned genius refuses to work, and the ambitious youth makes a flat failure. Journalism is drudgery—plodding, un­ ostentatious drudgery. The individual work which makes a complete newspa­ per attracts no otteution from the public generally. Readers say this or that jwqier is*a good one. without once caring And this alone would be cruel to tho unfledged writer who hopes to yield a moral influence. If one of his articles appears he expects it to be the feature of the paper, and is disappointed if peodo not talk about it and insist upon owing who wrote it; whereas he may write for years without achieving dis­ tinction. - A Radical Change. The rapidity with’ which the world progresses is astounding. Tho fashions for girls who elope just now are very plain. Some white drapery/a conven­ ient window, n long ladder, a dark night, a coach, a minister, and tho bouse of a friend, and tbe elopement is over. If the irate father, armed with a double­ barreled coal shovel and a town con­ stable, does not pursue, the aflidr is, al­ though a picturesque, not exactly a suc­ cessful elopement. If the father of the bride relents within two days the foolish couple' are not happy. If it leaks out that the mother of the bride is in tho secret much of the pleasure of the trip is spoiled. If both the father and mother ’ ing away and have actually left the lad­ der near the window, and that fact is found out, the elopement is a failure. In the olden time the elopement bride packed all her portable goods on herself, and went away heavily laden.

Prentice : " The flat of death is inexorable. There is no ap­ peal for relief from the great law which dooms us to dust We flourish and fade as the leaves of the forest, and ths flow­ ers that bloom, wither and fade in a day have no frailer hold upon life than ths mightiest monarch that ever shook the earth with his fiMitateps. Generations of men will appear ami disappear as ths grass, and the multitude that throng the world to-day will disappear as foot­ steps on the shore. Men seldom tliink of the great event of death until the shadow falls acrow their own pathway, hiding from their eyes the faces of loved ones whose living smile was the sunlight of tlicir existence. Death is the antag­ onist of life, and the thought of ths tomb is the skeleton of all feasts. Ws do uot want to go through the dark val­ ley, although tho dark passage may lead to paradise; we do not want to go down into damp graves, even with Prin­ ces for bed-fellows. In the beautiful ^ramaof ’Ion* the hope of immortality, so eloquently uttered by the death-de­ voted Greek, finds deep response in ev­ ery thoughtful aoul. When about to yield his life a sacrifice to fate, his ClemiuJtho oaks if they should meet again, to which he respords: I have asked that dreadful question of the hills that look eternal—of the clear streams that flow forever—of stars among whose fields of azuro my raised spirits have walked in glory. All are dumb. But. mi I gaze upon thy living face, I feel that there is something in love that mantles through its beauty that cannot wholly jierish.

Patrick Miller in 1787, and it is said that he and Mr. Syming­ ton soon after const meted a snudiateamboat, which ran five miles an hour. If this is true, then to them belongs tho ha*or of operating the first steamboat, otherwise the honor should be given to W. Symington, who made a passage on the Forth aud Clyde canal in 1789. In 1801 the first experiment in steam navi­ gation ou the Thames was made. In 1803 Fulton ran his steaml»oat Clermont • on the Seine, at Paris, and in 1806. at New York. All of these were merely ex­ periments, and the first steamboat in the world which served as a practical means of transportation was put upon the Hud­ son river by Fulton in 1807. Geoboe BnvMMEnn, commonly called “Beau” Brummell, was a celebrated leader of fashion in the time of George HI. "Hejraa considered the arbiter and autocrat in matters of foppery, even the Prince of Wales (afterward George IV.) yielding to him in. that resjx-ct. His end was .a sail one. In 1816, through the pressure of clamorous creditors, he took up his residence at Calais, and liv»d there for some years, maintained, it is said, solely by the kindness of his friends. His last years were rendered dismal by disease and paralyzed reason. It is related of him that he used to sit by the hearth alone, under the impres­ sion that ho was giving a fine evening party, having lighted card tables in his room, and his servant to ahnounce the imaginary entries of the gay and dis­ tinguished who had attended' at his in­ vitations in London thirty years before. Fiction luia nothing superior to tliis. The poor “Beau ’’ was at last brought so low by disease that, but for the relig­ ious enthusiasm of the Sisters of Char­ ity, he must have died unattended. This event took plaoe in 1840. Great Works in Olden Times. Wendell Phillips thinks, the ancients attained perfection in some arts, the knowledge of which has been lost in our time. It is certain that those most familiar with steam-power and modern machinery are puzzled to explain how the grand structures of the ancient world were erected. Builders say that no modern contractor could erect the great pyramid in Egypt, and lift the gigantic stones at the summit to the height of four hundred and fifty feet A recent visitor to Baalbec, and the ruins of tiie great temple of Baal, doubts if any modern architect cauld rebuild the temple in its ancient grandeur. Three huge stones, sixty-four feet long, thirteen high, and thirteen wide, stand in a wall at the height of twenty feet Nine other stones,' thirty feet long, ten high, and ten wide, are joined together with such nicety that a trained eye can­ not discover the line of juncture. A column still stands in the quarry, a mile distant, which is completed, with the exception that it is not detached at the bottom. It is sixty-nine feet long, seventeen high, and fourteen brood, and one cannot understand how it can be separated at the bottom from the quarrv without breaking. The ruins of thia vast temple inspire respect for the genius ui former ages. A Mystery Explained.

The Albany Argtm has an article on Hudson river boating of early days. • It says : “Opposition” in the earlier days meant a great deal more tlinn at pres­ ent The Captains and pilots of tho different lines of boats made it a point of duly to interfere with the business of their opponents in every possible man­ ner, and the feelings of passengers were frequently enlisted in behalf of tho ves­ sel they chanced to l*e on. Many sto­ ries are told of boats running into each other, of pilots exchanging pistol-shots, and of other like encounters on the river Iwtween opposition boats and their crews. One of these, occurring in Sep­ tember, 1835, is related in tho Ar aux ot the 22d 'of that month. While the North Affierica was preparing to land its passengers at Coxsackie, the Emerald came along and collided with her, but so lightly as to do little damage. After the (touts had left Cdxsockie, however, and while, rs the officers of the North Amer­ ica assert, she was pursuing hot course quietly, the Emerald started directly across the river toward her. • She struck the North America’s wheelhouse with her larboard bow, carrying away side­ house, railing, boot-cranks, etc. The Emerald’s wheel pursed over the North America’s small Ixiat, which was lowered down,’and stove it to atoms. As the North America slowly cleared from the Emerald, the Emerald raked her whole side, from the wheel-house aft Im­ mediately after she cleared a cheer was started at the wheel-housexof the Emer­ ald and responded to by her passengers. The Directors of the North America Steamboat Company assert that they hud in their possession a certificate of a ixjraon on board the Emerald who heard the Captain aud pilot agree to run into the North America and do her al) the X’ y they could, and that in the fulent of this agreement the boat was steered ilirectly across the river so os to strike the North America, aud the pas­ sengers were requested to go tothestarItoard side so os to put the Emerald in a [Kisition to do as groat injury as possible. “hote's"—now being constructed on | upper Fifth avenue rival in costliness, [ Mosaics. elegance, and luxurious comfort the The first authentic account to be found most noted of the modern private reei- of any mosaic work in ancient Rome is dentes in the groat capitals of Europe. given us by Pliny, who says that Sylla The Parisian badand walks through tiie caused some “stone-laid”* work to* bo grand avenues in tho neighborhood of made; aud from his and other sources of the Arc de Triomphe and tiie Bois de evidence we are justified in assuming the Boulogne, regarding with satisfaction time of its introduction here to have l>een tiie uniformity of tho private hotels in about eighty yeara B.

SUBSCRIBER. aad this on the back of a burden of taxation that has increased from 59 cents per capita in 1854, to $1.13 per capita in 1881. A trial of oxer’ two hundred years should have proved definitely the suc­ cess or failure of the system, and what is tbe remit. After a thorough and ca pful study of all the facta bearing apon the subject, many talented and disinterested observers declare it a positive failure; that as a corrective and economic factor it is absolutely worthless; that crime, insanity and pauperism have increased Id the great­ est proportion to population in sections wher&Xhe greatest amount of money has been expended and the most elab­ orate appliances for school instruction are supplied. Facte prove that simply oultcre of tho intellect docs not una­ voidably fortify the moral qualities, but frequently does increase tho ca­ pacity for wickedness; that tbe popu­ lar notion tbat“ignoranco is the mother of ▼ice” is fallacious; that though ig■orance is undoubtedly the mother of superstition, it is not necessarily that of Vice, but that vice is more often tbe result of the blight of poverty; that though vice and ignorance are often found together, one is not the offspring of the other, but both spring from the common source of poverty. In a discussion of the subject of ed­ ucation, the inquiry arises why the state assumes the duty of educating ite eituens. The power of the state is of course supreme. It may take the prop­ erty ot its subject by tfi, compel mili­ tary service, imprison or even take life as a punishment foretime, but its duty is limited simply , to the protection of life and property. If this postulate is correct, on what ground can this im­ mense tax for the support of schools be defended ’ Only under the plea that a certain amount of education of yonth is essential to fit them for the intelli­ gent discharge of the duties of citizens, and that this instruction can be better given by the state than by the parent. Granting this assumption, the whole question of state education comes tip. How much education is required to atake a competent citizen f Shall the teaching be confined to the common English branches, or include the higher studies T How is life and property in Michigan better protec ted by an expen­ diture of money wrung by remorseless taxation—$3000 to educate a farmer, $410 to educate a school-marm, $115 for the education of a lawyer, doc­ tor or clergyman.

A thousand surmises have been flying about concerning the dose. intimacy which has subsisted between Queen Victoria and tbe ex-Empress’ Eugenie during the past winter. • The Empress has grown as sedate and self-centered as tbe Queen heroelf; the flowers and the gew-gaws are all laid aside, and the face is no longer made up according to the fashion, but is left pallid, as nature intended it to be. The hair, once bright and golden as tbe sunbeam, and yet was nover bright enough, but must needs be powdered with gold dust, is now white and snowy and gathered in smooth bands over the forehead. Her Majesty stoops a little, bnt her figure is tcaicely altered since the Emperor pro­ nounced it to be equal in symmetry and grace to that of Diana. The simple robes of half-mourning add greatly to the inteiest of her appearance. Now that the marriage of the Bar­ oness Bordett-Coutts is an accomplish­ ed fact, it is said that her sister, Mrs. Money-Coutta,intendsto relinquish the threatened litigation with regard to the property. It is sincerely to be hoped that such is the case. After all the noble work the Baroness has done, it will lie a sad thing for her to be involv­ ed in litigation with her nearest rela­ tives in her declining years. A rumor has crept into the papers that Miss Isabel Bateman is akaut to give up the management of Sadler Wells’ Theatre. It is entirely without foundation. Miss Bateman has, so far, been fairly successful, and Herman Verin is at present drawing very good houses and winning golden opinions by hts powerful rendering of Hamlet. The only tiling to be regretted is that the cares of management debar Miss Isabel Bateman from displaying her great talent as an actress. At present, at least, it seems impossible for hei to do both. Between the Boer peace, tiie question of the evacuation of Candahar, the everlasting Bralaugh, not to mention the Irish question, matters are lively enough in England just now to give quite a breexv tone to public opinion. The Lftwson-Labouchere case contri­ butes a spice of mischief to,the whole, dragging as it does the names of many illustrious personages, and .not a few who will lie made illustrious by this unique trial of wit versus temper. So far wit, ns is usually tbe case in such contests, seems to have decidedly the upper hand. Her Majesty’s ship Pinafore has late­ ly been sailing in very troubled waters. Before the “Pirates of Penzanee,” drove her out of the Port of London, her builders, Messrs. Gilbert and Sulli­ van, had taken an action against the Comedy Opera Company to prevent them from playing the opera in ques­ tion. The plaintiffs contended that the closing or the theatre terminated the run of the piece, a position which was supported by a large number of managers and dramatic authors. Tho lodge took tbe aame view, and gave jouMtoent for the plafatiffis with one shilling damages, which of course car­ ries costa. r The social ferment which has 60 long been going on in Europe is at last show­ ing itself visible on the surface. The nature of it is becoming daily more manifest, and men are dividing on clear issues. Sifted down, these issues seem to define themselves as God or no God. Government or no Government, Nihilism or Christianity. The Chris­ tian sects hare been divided since tbe Reformation ; the non-Christians have become more and more united and powerful. The tendency among Chris­ tian believers of all abodes is, though still tardy and reluctawt,owing in great measure to inherited prejudices, to unite in face of the common danger, as the Christians of the early middle age united against the Moslem iuvarion. This may explain the voluntary action of the PrusaiaD Government in seeking to remove whatever dlslbilities still re­ main to its Catholic subjects in order to restore the public confidence of so important a section of society, and so potent a factor in human affairs as the Roman (Catholic Church.

Wickham of this village and Upjohn of Hastings, who also were quite confident of their ability to restore him to health. Hi* friends also had strong hope* of his ul­ timate cuie, up to Sunday, when, about 4 p. nn. he wa* again attacked with profuse hemorrhage, which continued with more or les* severity until his death. For several week* Mr. Durkee had been drinking mineral water from Waukesha (Wl*.,) which had been rec­ ommended aaA proving efficacious in cases similar to bis, and on Monday morning he, apparently, felt quite re­ covered from hi* recent attack and asked bis son to order more watey*. But his looks belied his real condition —iris hopes were as rope* of sand, for T11e ANGEL Off DEATH, atthi* very moment,was hovering near. At noon Dr.Wickham reported that the patient could not lire the day through. He failed gradually, seeming to suffer greatly during his last hours, but was perfectly conscious, although he did not converse, and only spoke when he wanted to bo moved or wished some water or medicine. The last audible word he spoke was “Allie,” his son’s name, whom he apparently desired to come nearer him. Allie was near, but stepped nearer and took his fathers cold hand in his, but the father was too weak to speak. This was about thirty minutes before his death. He then turned partially over, on bis back, and sank into an unconscious stupor. Dr. Wickham spoke to him several times, but be wa* too far over die river of death to hear his call. He gradually sank away and expired without a vis­ ible effort to throw off the» relentless held many of the important offices of trust in the gift of her people. He was elected Supervisor of this township in 1877, and did such good work that he was re-elected three consecutive rimes, <h 1879 being chosen chairman of the board. Mr. Durkee believed in the adage: “If you would have friends you must be friendly,” and hod a great fac­ ulty of drawing men to him. Although a Republican of the stalwart order, he seemed to grow popular with all classes. Early last summer The News had the honor of being the first newspaper in thia district to name Mr. Durkee as a man io every way worthy of the confident and support of the Republi­ can partwof Eaton and Barry counties as thfir?npinincc for State Senator. The idea Wcame a popular one, and in September Mr. Durkee wa* heartily nominated by his party, and in Novem­ ber following elected by a fine majori­ ty. Upon the organization of the Senate be was made chairman of the committee on Federal Relations, and a member of the following committees: Mechanical Interests, Liquor Traffic, Religious and Benevolent Societies.

First, there I* intelligence, exercise of Intellect; there l* that inspiration, which all men *h*rc more or le»e, by which a stream ot new idea* flow* Into the mind from some upper ftourcc. This is one fountain of joy. A man who i* thinking and learning aomethlng Las a certain contentment aud satisfaction of mind fa that. And there is lore—going out of our­ selves to sympathize with others, to help them forward, to feel at home tn the society and friendship of other mind*. This is another essential of Itspplness. The third source of contentment {* work: to accwmplish some­ thing; to imitate God by creating; to tiring or­ der out of confusion; to add something to the wealth of the world; this is another great source of satisfaction. But when wc have all these united, wc hare a sort of hcaren even in tills life. That makes heaven here, and that is why Paul spoke of sitting iu heavenly place* with Jesus. Now Heaven, hereafter, la proba■ biy the same thing, only carried upward and onward. A new world, new senses, new facul­ ties, will give us more to know, more to loro, and more to do. And who caii tell ua bow much there may t»e to do hereafter! The in­ I soluble problem* of life, which daunt and con­ found as here, are but the shadows thrown, down tm oar globe from the vast events going forward in worlds beyond. Then there is the beatific vision, a Right of God, which makes heaven. But we see God in this world; not directly, indeed, for he dwells in light Inaccessible and full of glory. He Is not hidden from us by darkness, but ’ by light. A* our car* are only tuned to hear a few oc­ taves of music, and all the other harmo­ nies of heaven and earth escape us; so, while “thb muddy vesture ot „ cay" shut* ua ix». our eye can only range through a certain ncalc of light All above it b too bright.

The Confederate graves in Now Or­ leans wore decorated with flowers contributed that the qficstion of placing further re strictions on the obstructionists is beingseriously dissca-sed. If, as is only too mo liable, those Iriab members, who meiidacioudy profess to represent the feelings of their countrymen, should extend their objectionable tactics to matters not connected with Ireland, it would be impossible for the House to-tolerate their presence, and there would be no choice left but to deal with the offenders individually, and impose a penalty which would rid the Hous©of their presence for a considerable per­ iod. Tho evil weighs heavily on the loyal Irish members, for the discredit falls on them as well as on theobstructionistr.. The fact cannot be too strong­ ly dwelt on that these unruly members are only a minority of the representa­ tives of Ireland and are moreover, men of no social standing whatever. It would be a woeful day for Ireland if her destinies were ever entrusted to such men ns these. As the days go ou the assassination of Alexander II assumes deeper impor­ tance, Thekhell that fell at his feet has prod need consternation in the camp of all the monarchs. They and their stutsnieu are seriously deliberat­ ing how to put an end to the possibility of such attempts in the future. While on the one side there has been n gener­ al expression nf horror at the act. on the other there lias been a loud and yery widespread cry of exultation and glory iu it. Voices from Geneva, Paris. New York, Chicago, the great cities of the world, have cried out in concerted approval. This says that Nihilism or Socialism, is a power in the world, has numbers, nicana, a voice, aud, if called on, an arm to any deed of desperation. And tins power is arranged against the monarchs. The monarchs propose an agreement to stamp it out of Europe at least by allowing it no right of asy­ lum anywhere. Whether or not thia will be effected remains to be seen. London has long been the favorite home of Socialism and revolution, nor has England been always averse to making secret use of theec agents.

Very close upon 100 years ago Fran­ cis Pierson, a Major of tho old Ninety­ fifth regiment—now in the Rifle Bri­ gade—saved with hb life’s-blood the island of Jersey from falling into the hands of its former masters, the French. Though tho story of thb heroic deed lives ui history yot, strange to say, few of ns beyond those who reside in or st -’dythe records of that little land know much about it; we venture, there­ fore, to retell the tale, mb we have gath­ ered its particulars from the pages of well-known local writers. In the year 1780 England was at war with France—no unusual state of things between tho two countries long before and long after that period. How often, <iwring thb chronic hostile condition, our Gallic adversaries had tried to have and to hold tho Channel islands, as coigns of vantage from which to threaten our shores, it is unnecessary to dwell upon ; but it may os well be mentioned, as a sort of prelude to our narrative, that in May, 1779, tho Prince of Nassau, with an army of 5,000 or 0,000 men, had again attempted a descent on Jersey, and J.'een driven off. Disappointed with the tailure, of thb expedition, Franco soon organized another' against thb mnch-covetcd islet, thb time under the Boron de Rullecourlj and with a smaller and more easily-handled force. On tho morning after Christinas day 1780,2,000 French troops embarked nt Granville, in Brittany, intending leisurely to cross the few miles of sen lietwecn tliat port and Jersey, land under cover of the night, and take the place by ii coup de main, Tbo Boron, according to tho quaint vriters, hoped to find the inhabitants under the lethargic influenoeB of the good fare in meats and drinks common tothc season—heavy, in fact, with rosbij and portarc bicrret and so less capable MroustiDg lib attack. ■ 1 -The transport duly "weighed anchor and started for their (lestinution, but in those .ou'te-sfeaai days shirting from o port was one thing, but arriving at the journey's «jd Knottier.

There they remained in no safe anchor­ age until the 5th of Januaiy,.1781, tho commander of the expedition fretting and fuming, aud venting his spleen in the most fviocious boxbarity . On the day just inmntioned, Rullecourt again made for Jersey, his force, however, diminished by no lass than 800 men, who were aboard tho dispersed vessels, none of which had turned up.

And now, M'sieu lo Baron chuckled to think how do much eaaiex than he had dreamed of Jersey was the proper­ ty of Loub XVL, end ho its General and Governor. He issued a proclama­ tion to that effect, deciring toot all toe shops should be opened and everything gone on with as usual We may picture him standing at an open window of the Court House, and addressing the scared populace thus: “Gentlemen—my friends," says he, “by my akin, and the fortune of war, I am your chief, but under a now rej/imo mafoi ! Carry on your affairs as if nothing had occurred out of common ; entertain mo and mine hospitably; wine and tobacco my sol­ diers must be amply supplied with. Obey my commando impumtiy, and I will not make your burden too hard to bear. But one act of mutiny, one word of discussion or denial, and there are my children with their firelocks and swords, ready and willing to enforce obe­ dience." And then, as is really told of him, he invited Corbet, and the heads of deportments to dine with him that evening! Meantime, the insular militia —to whom as well as to the troops of the lino, mformntion of the state of things uau oeen sent, and anti who, wuo, far inr from irom ul«eypneyhad l»een ing Maj. Corbet's order to surrender, were burning to drive the enemy out of their land—we.ro mustering in all dircctions. Some joined tbe Seventy-eighth Highlanders, encamped on a height to the westward.of the town, and others re’inforced'the ’ *"M little garri.soii stationed ’ * in ' Elizabeth Castle.

He sounded a hilt, anti sent an officer with a copy of the capitula­ tion, and with a written order beside from hb prisoner, to the commimdimt of the castle, Capt MulcaAter, to give it up, but a dbtinct refusal, couched in the following words, was the reply: “Our castle's strength will laugh a siege to scorn ; if you dbpute it, come on and try." But Rullecourt, much t<*> wise to run hb head against stone walls bristling with ordnance, turned tail and re-entered the town, vowing vengeance against it It was at this turn of the tide in the Baron’s proceedings that Maj. Francis Pierson, a young officer of the Ninety­ fifth regiment, toe next senior officer in rank to Corbet, and the hero of our ,tory, arrived oh the scene. He liad taken command of toe regtuare and IQiiitb, anil was moving them toward th® town ; he had refused to lend himself to the terms of the capitulation; he h^l questioned the military authority of the Governor, while a prisoner, to i»BUt) orders; and he had scorned ennditiOIU s^t him by the Rullecourt to march with hb battalions to the Court House, there to tay down their arms, and ve the city from inevitable plunfim-, and daughter, and fire. ** Tell your General,” said he to the bearer of the memg„ “Urt wrtUfMre our to the Court Hoorn <» h. wirt but wiH be with bayonets fixed on our muaketa, and in too hands erf men sworn to Moreover, he liad infused mechanical experts to be tbe beet out. _ tk.

A curious little book, called “The Bulea of Civility,’’ which was published in 1675, throws amusing light on tho manners of our ancestors two centuries sgo. “Being in discourse with a man," we read on ouo page, “ ’tis no lees than ridiculous to pull him by the buttons, I to play with his band strings, belt or . to punch him now and then on the : stomach." Again, “It argues neglect, ' and to undervalue a man, to sleep when । he is discounting or reading. There­ fore, good manners command it to be । forbid; besides, something may happen j in the act that may offend, as snaring, I his troops, that he is said to have ex- sweating, gaping or dribbling."

The assertion is contra­ dicted by so many exceptions that it cannot be received as a general rule. It is, however, verified in the career of some great orators. The most notable case, m tho annals of American orators, is that of Patrick Henry. The bees of Hymettus touched his bps, as they did those of Plato, while slumbering in his cradle. He lixjwd in eloquence, as Pope did in numbers, ' • Henry wa« a natural orator, but he was “only tlmt and nothing more." Mr. Jefferson, who knew him well, and often listened spell-bound to his elo­ quence, says ho was neither a mon of education nor a well-read lawyer. Wirt, in his “Life of Henry," which should more properly be entitled Wirt's “Bomance," says he read “Plutarch’s Lives” once a year. “ I don’t believe,” said Mr. Jefferson, “he ever rmd two I volumes of them.” ’ One November, on leaving Jefferson’s I house, Henry selected two books from ■ his hcsCs library- “I will take three < । two volumes of’* Hume’s Essays,’ ” he । remarked, ns he put them in hb saddle­ : bugs, “and try to read them' thb win­ ter.” In the spring he returned them, saying ho haul not been uble to get half : through one of them. Henry wna too lazy and too I fond of company to read. lib delight । was to pass weeks hunting in the “piny I woods" along with overseen* and people I of similar social position. At night, j when they gathered about the campfire, i Henry was tho soul of the company— telling stories and cracking jokes until j bed-tune. | Yet tbe lazy, half-educated lawyer I seemed like one inspired when he stood 1 before a jury or on the stump. I “He apixmred to me," wrote Mr. Jef­ ferson, “to ns Homer wrote. I I never heard, . ho continues, "anything | that deserved to be called by the same ■ name with what flowed from him. I Where h.. got that torrent of language i from b*inconceivable. I have frequently shut my eyes while he spoke, and when he was done asked myself what ho had said, without being able to recollect s word of it. He was no logician." But Henry's case b an exceptional i one. There b nothing like it in our ! hbtoiy, and the times were on lib side. To-day the man who wishes to attain I eminence as an orator must have ideas and know how to jrat them in an at­ I tractive form.

If she praises her balls and her parties, she abuses her for being too fat or too thin, or mentions some social failing. There ore plenty of other faults with which ladies accuse each other behind their backs, such os iuhospitality, idle­ ness, having - “odd people" to stay with'them, frequently changing their nervanta, and even telling lies ; but it is needless to multiply instances.

A new idea for accomplishing this without the use of Dails is carried out os follows : The inventor takes a shoe of ordinary construction, having, nay, four holes . {herein, and through those he pasaes bands or wires of metal, two ex­ tending from «>r near, the hinder extrem­ ities of the shoe, and the other two at short distances from either side of the to^, the position peing varied with the number of bands employed. To fix tbo shoe the hinder wires or bunds ore first drawn tightly round the front and upper part or corona of the hoof, the ends passing through n buckle or ring, or they may be twisted together. The ends of the other wires ure also passed through tho ring or muter the flrat bands, and, lx?ing drawn tightly down­ ward, the hinder wires or bands, owing to too conformation of .the hoof, are, aa it were, wedgud tightiv, thus fixing tho shoe firmly to the hoot This invention only receives provisional protection.— London Live-Stock Journal.

You know I’ll do as much for you, anv time.” Mike knew it, and scratched his head; and finally evolved tho following: “It is my father's child,, and my mother's child; yet it is not my sister uor my brother.” “ Goodness mo ! Mike, how can that be?” “Why, don’t you sco, Mr. Barton? it's inytclf. I am my father’s child, and my Another’s child ; but, of course, I ain’t my own brother or Bister, either.” “Hi!

The summer warmth penetratee the sea vep- gradually, nnd la more gradu­ ally given off. January is the coldest month, but tho sea-water is coldest in March. July is tho hottest month, but tho sea-water attains its maximum warmth toward tho end of August From that time tho sea becomes warmer than tho air, and cools so much slower than the weather that in November the average warmth of tho water is 6 deg? and in Dccomber 7 deg. higher than that of the atmosphere. The balance is rotiThcd at tho end of March, and then for the next five months the air is warm­ er tlian the water. These figures, made at Peterhead, justify tho custom of ex­ tending sea-bathing late into the autumn. Sea-bathing should, in fact, begin late, and may safely end late. It is more dangerous in the warm days of early summer than in the chilly days of tho late autumn. The sea is as warm at tho end of October as it is in the second week of June, aud the jKiriod between those dates is tho healthy bathing sea­ son for those who aro strong.

There never u as a time when heiresses were in so great a demand, or when worldly mammas smiled more approv­ ingly on the attentions of prosperous young men .to their daughters. This i act has been very plainly shown nt all the watering places this summer. In truth, the demand is so active and so manifest that what supply there is grows shy, and wealth is tending to ally itself with wealth, both to strengthen its posi­ tion and to escape merely mercenary importunities. Where there is money on both aides, it is felt that matrimony is safer ; and perhaps it is. Young men who ore on the hunt for heiresses do not deserve to be encouraged; and young women who put a money price on their affections may well be left among the unsold goods. Conundnims.

Physical training puts good blood into a man's veins. There aro many methods of exercise—boxing, rowing; fencing .and other methods; but men always have some kind of an excuse, and go on suf­ fering from indigestion and sluggish, poisoned blood. A man who takes a good swinging . walk of a mile or more, as he is best fitted for it, does a good work; for he has injected some good blood into his veins to the exclusion of much bad blood. If systematic exer­ cise is begun, it should 'lie kent no and gradually mcrcascu. If a man sticks to his regular exercise for any length of time, he will not l>e disposed to give it up.

It never fails to make a tie, and will cut and bind Long, Wet and Heavy Grain, without choking or straining any part of the machine. It will bind continuously in heavy grain, and stop in thin grain until enough has been gathered to make all bundles of one size, large or small as desired. The Binder is at all times Under Perfect Control, as the driver can stop and start it at will. Any cord strong enough to hold a bundle may be used, thick or thin, even or knotty, dry string or tarred rope. DON’T FAIL TO SEE THE BINDER NOW IN RUNNING ORDER AT MY AGRICULTURAL ROOMS. This little Grass Cutter is the lightest 2-horse mower made and in the Centennial field trial made the astonishing record of only 131 pounds draft, and did the best work of any mower in the trial. Although this mower is the lightest and has the smallest draft, yet it possesses all the advantages, and does its work equally as well as any of the heavier machines. It has a powerful cut, never choking in the toughest and thickest grass, starting to cut instantly, without previous backing, and cutting close and clean whether the crop is standing or lodged. It is at all times exactly balanced, avoiding side draft and weight on horses’ necks, either in operation when mowing at any heighth of cut, or when the cutter-bar is folded for trans­ portation on the road.

A minute a half bed elapsed. Both had not only worked with great rapidity, but without any false motMoa or vexations of any sorts. • Then the maid took of severs! puffs and a bow from her mistress’ bead—hex hair in the last act having been simply dressed— and put on the more elaborate blonde wig, fastening it in place with hairpins, ana setting a lock hero and there into place. Next the actress stood up, and th>» maid swiftly put her into tho dress that had lain on the chair. Every part of it fell admirably into place, the drap­ ery across tho front hiding the junction, and plentiful hooks and eyes holding all together. Standing before a full-length mirror, she finally surveyed herself critically, at just three minutes and a half from the start. Half a minute more was employed in putting some additional rouge and powder on the face, and then she was ready to go on the'stage. A Good Dog Story.

A sorrowful sight in this world _ _ man who can do but one thing, follow but one avocation in life, and who if by chance is disabled from performing that is utterly incapable of making a living by turning to something else. Horace Greeley said Le knew hundreds of men who pomeaaed the finest classical ed­ ucations that it was possible to obtain in our American colleges, who walked tho pavement* Aimlessly, unable to support ihemaelves, and scarcely knowing where the next meal waa to come from. By a deplorable false notion instilled into their minds while young as to “genteel occupation,” they wcie unfitted to be­ come useful members of society. Many boys of the present day seem to have a steoBg avendou to every kind erf trade, business calling, or occupation, tliat requires labor, and an equally faithfully performed.

During this chat his eye fell on a portmanteau of mine which I had caused to be marked foi convenience ?ake and easy identification with the cabalistic figures 120. This he scanned for some time with ill-concealed curiosity, and finally turning to me said rather abruptly: "If I am not mistaken, you are a nobleman, are you not?” I admitted that such was my unhappy lot “Then," said he, “I presume that num­ ber there on your valise is what they call in the nobility armorial bearings, u it not?

A correspondent in the Household says: I have a friend who, among other luxuries, poBseaats a carriage, and many benefited by a ride. Last spring my friend discovered a lady who from long illness and sorrow was so reduced in strength that it was with the greatest exertion she could walk across her room. She invited her to ride, but the invalid declined, fearing she was not strong enough to endure the fatigue; but on consulting her physician he decided that it was just what she needed and would do her more good than medicine. Tho first ride was but a very abort one. and on the street railway, to avoid jolting. When left at her door she grasped my friend’s hand, while the tears filled her eyes, and said: “If thia does not kill me how I shall bless you." Well, it did not even hurt her, and the rides were continued every four days for three months, when thu invalid was entirely recovered and could and did walk three mils* route.

Well, I can not My why,' but I hap­ pened to read this advertisement oat to my friend, and m I went on, glancing down the paper, I said: “Ah! poor fellow, he will never be heard of again; robbed and murdered, no doubt; these diMppearanoes are all undiscovered murders, I suppose. ’’ I heard her move oiieasily and sigh. ing up, I saw to my surprise, that sho had buried her face in her hands, and wm crying bitterly. ’ Bising and croruiing the room, I asked what was tho matter.

There were u few new roads led out. and here and there an <xld house or two erected, with tlui shells cf others incom­ plete—you know the sort of place, all scaffold poba, cnblmge gardens, <L'cd eats, battered tin kettles, and stagnant pools. They had been in this precious aboubut throe days, when what happened, happened. They were without a servant : —in the house alone, in fact, the wife ' becoming the drudge meanwhile. A “ *You fool, are wo not hard-up enough alreadr, but you must be playing the Good Samaritan, and let the man in? Do you want to turn the place into a hos­ pital?

Gently turning him over, my husband went on: “ 'Why, he’s dying, if not dead; we must fetch a doctor. A pretty mess you have got us into, but we most go through it honestly, or else who knows what we may bo charged with—murder, perhaps? Be off and get a doctor; there’s a rod lamp si the seoond turning on the left down this road.’ ■“ I flew to do his bidding, terrified by his words, which I saw had soma reason in them, and had nearly reached tho house when he called out: “ ‘Here, go out this way, by this door here into the road; it’s nearer.’ “I returned and wm about to open tho garden door, close to which he wm still bending over the body, when I saw ho wm examining tho contents of a largo }x>rtemonnaie, which ho had taken from tho pocket of tho prostrate, unconscious man.

' “ ‘Light a candle, pull down the blind, get some water and brandy; he is not quite dead,’said my husband, whilst ex­ amining the man’s pecket handkerchief. “ ‘No initials, nothing to identify him by.'

PVBCHU, the niltw of etiquette of Northern Court*, which nnver considers youth a« an adTUtage in any position in life, and least of all in that of a represen­ tative of the honor and glory of a great nation. The young Prince Ohcar is twenty three years of age. He is of tall atatnre and fair complexion. He is dreamy and poetical and has more of the artist than the philosopher in his composition. He is a fair poet, a firstrate mnsician and possesses a splendid bass voice. The King, his fattier, on finding a germ of ideal in Prince Oscar, determined to check the growth of this tendency to poetic dreams, which de­ veloped itself at an early age, and sent uin to board with the hambin castor of an obscure village at some distance from the capital. The good man wan instructed to eradicte all poetical ideas from the mind of the young Prince and to allow him to run wild about tlie country in the intervals of study. Af­ ter this be was eent to the University of tjpsal, where he was shown no favor on account of his rank. Ho had al­ ways displayed an aversion to a mili­ tary life and had deferred entering the army as long as possible. He is tho poeeessor of 100,000 Swedish crowns, and 60,000 crowns of Norway, constru­ ing a capital which yields $45,000, a"7ear. Besides this, he has inherited from his grandmother, Josephine, the daughter of Eugene de Beauharnais, the sum of l,000/<00 francs. Some lit­ tle while ago the Queen of Sweden, growinguneasy at seeing the lore of solitude which had taken possession of her son. is said to have consulted the great phvaician of Stockholm as to the best method of rousing the energies of the young Prince. The doctor prescrib­ ed the shower bath and chase. The remedy has proyed almost too succesful, for Prince OscAr ban become so fond of sport that tlie Queen is dis­ quieted by the idea of the danger in­ curred by tills excess of activity. By this it many by understood why the Queen of Sweden was recontlv induced to visit Bournemouth and why Queen Victoria has been recently so demons­ trative'in her attention to the Empreta Eugenie, who claims relationship, through Bernadotte, with the Royal Family ot Sweden. One million seven hundred and fifty thousand pounds or $8,750,000 has been officially returned as the cost of the last Parliamentary election m England, Scotland and Ireland. That is a snug sum for men to spend who expected nothing but honor in in return tor the outlay. This amount covers the ex­ penditure of 488 Liberal candidates,who spent in tho aggregate £771,540, of 480 Tory candidates, who £950,000, and 30 Homo Rule candidates, who spent £14­ 500. Of these 998 candidates 590 were successful and S48 were unsucceMful, 210 successful Tories spent in tho ag­ gregate £414,801, or £1,884 each; 841 successful Liberals spent £527.049, or £1.545 each; and the.successful Home Rulers £10,490, or an average of £881. The unsuccessful Tories spent £536,751 or £2,084; the unsuccessful Liberals, £244*481, or £1,888each; and the un­ successful Home Rulers. £3,915 or £654 each. All told, it is no wonder that a movement is on foot to reduce the expenses of Parliamentary elections in England. Thev fwould seem now to be m luxuary in which very few can af­ ford to indulge.

In the present day of steam and punctu­ ality, the lazy man, no matter how ex­ traordinary his acquirements, must al­ ways fall behind in the race of human life.

'Diere may be epics in men's brains, just as there are oaks in acorns, but tho tree and the book must come out before we can measure them. We very naturally recall here that class of grumblers and wishers who spend their time in longing to be higher than they are, while they should be employed in advancing .themselves. These bitterly moralize upon the injustice of society. “ Do they want a change ? Let them cliango—who prevente it ? If you are as high as your faculties will permit you to rise in the scale of society, whv should you complain of men ? It is God that arranged the law of precedence.

Trade baa fal­ len off -alarmingly. The transactiona of the first quarter of the year are far behind those for the same period Id 1880 and the number of fu tures ia greatly increased. The total number of mer­ cantile failures proper in the United States for the first quarter of 1881 ia 1,­ 986, os against 1,394, for the corres­ ponding period of 1880, and 2,350 for the 1879. This does not appear to be a very encouraging showing, but some special causes are given for the result. The increase of failures -ia almost wholly in the Southern and Western states, and in the former it is explained that the weather has been unfavorable for bus­ iness and for agricultural operations, last fall's purchases were far iu excess of subsequent wants, and tlie South's peculiar credit system aggravated the situation. But thia baa been in a meas­ ure reformed, and there is promise of continued reformation.

Tho Famous Three Mores of Moham­ med a Myth. The Arabians believe with sincere faith that their finest horses are direct descendants from tbe famous mare* of their great prophet, Mohammed; but this is about as much a matter of fact as that he was the inspired prophet of God. Count Lecaulteux do Contelou, of France, has made a special study of this tradition, iuid, in the Ect-eue Britanniguc, affirms, that when Moham­ med fled from Mecca to Medina to save him&*Jf from astuissination the only ani­ mals he had were nine camels. Oth­ er writers assert that he never had either a mare or a horse, and that it was some time after his death before horses were made use of in Arabian armies. Hith­ erto they had employed dromedaries alone for swift movements, and camels for the transportation of baggage and arms. The Arabians' are an excitable people, with any amount of credulity and gasconade. Tho braggadocio sto­ ries they get up. of the great perform­ ances of their horses must be taken with ble for these to gallop the distance* they boast of within tho short space of time often allowed them, and especially on tho modicum of food and water taken on the route, and sometimes with none at all for a burst of a hundred miles or Many of tlie Hindoos still think that the leader of tbe Sepoy rebellion, Nana Sahib, ia yet living, and that ha is in Amcxici. a region as vague to them as the domiuiotiH of Prester John were to tho n’ediujvaliste.

From one who speaks from the social circle chair of the royal days and aighte with tbe gay Prince, I learn that in being up early and going to bed late, in a bold ralroer of whist, a boat with billiards anil a turn at roulette, to say nothing of a “black bottle,*’ he can put alibis rivals under tho table and stand up alone himself unscathed, yet consid­ erate. He Dever allows time to flag with melancholy where he is, but rath­ er fly with mi-tii. He never permits a word of scandal or an innuendo to pass without a rebuke, and always defends the absent. In few tilings is he unable to point a uiornl and adorn a tale, either in tbe English, French or German lauguages; and no proper person, high or low, with distinguishing ability in arts or sciences, iu relined social erftertainment or elevated national views, can fail to gain tbe ear and the approval of thi* generous Prince and future King of England. It is not, then, to be won­ dered at, why he to so popular. A true man, a perfect prince and a boon com­ panion are not always found in * one person. Lord Beaconsfield’s death has thrown tbe entire city of London in mourning. His place at this most critical time can­ not (ic filled, and his loss is severely ielt, aot only by his party, bat in the House of which be lately Itecamea . member. It is doubtful whether the House of Lords has at all tbe bold on tbe hearts of tbe English people that most people outside of England suppose it to have. It has strenuously opposed most popular measures, and the people in the Hoiweof Commons, which is and ought to lie tlie ruling House, are grow­ ing weary of snCh continuous and prof­ itless opposition to popular will on the part of legtototors by inheritance. It M certain that the proposal to atolish the House qf Peers would meet with . widespread, if as yet to some extent, secret sympathy. Tliere is likely to be a bitter conflict there over Mr. Glad­ stone's new land bill, and it will take nmro wisdom and discretion than tbe Lords have been in the habit of mani­ festing to prevent them from putting tbe last straw on tbe back of public pa­ tience. Lord Beaconafleld was an ex­ cellent judge of how much might be darvd in the face of public feeling and •f tho turn of the tide. • ___ ;___ ® <»•> ' ____August. MARRIED.

Nashville, May 11, 1881. OF 18S1. Sitter5 It is understood that two new Clyde; built steamers, specially fitted up for the fruit trade and carrying large re­ frigerators, will run next season, from October to the end of April, between the ports of Annapolis, Halifax, aud London. It is thus that steamers are so rapidly taking the places ot sailing vessels on the Atlantic. Were our coasting trade open to the ships of the world, ns is that of Great Britain, we would have the finest iron-built Clyde steamships plying on the lakes. In that case. Grand Haven would not have to ask in vain for a line tunning to Chicago. . The Dement family were travelling through Arkansas in a wagon. They camped one day on top of a hill, and the father went off to fish in a stream a mile away, leaving the wife and two childrt-*" to mind the horses and bag­ gage. When he returned he saw a prairie tire moving up the hill. He hallooed to awaken Mrs. Dement and the children, for night had fallen and they were asleep. They found them­ selves approached on one side by flames, while on the other was a pre­ cipitous rock. They endeavored to es­ cape by climbing, but bad reached on ly a little height when the fire scorched them, and they meta horrible death in sight of the powerless father. It is related of a certain young mini that up.ta being advised by his father that the old gentleman had made his will, leaving him his heir, the property being placed in the hands of a trustee— the son begged the father to change tho terms of the will aud make him the trustee and tbe other party the heir. CThe worldly wisdom of this young man has lately been exemplified to the life in a case lately brought before the court at Albany, N. Y. In this instance it was proven that through the mis management of the managers, an estate valued at half a million of dollars eight years ago, had swindled down until there is not sufficient income to support the sole heir, a boy of 13 years of age, aud pay the taxesnnd interest charges. Rev. W. Hall, rector of tho Episcopal church at Ann Arbor, has been given by Lis parish six month’s lea^e of ab­ sence and $1,000 for a European tour, and he and his sister started last week. His salary is also allowed him daring his absence. Three men have been arrested ’n Rochester, N. Y., charged with the diamond robbery committed on Gus­ tave A. Strengson's jewelry store in Detroit last week. They are also charged with the robbey of Fisher & Preston’s bank on Woodward avenue last summer. Last Saturday, George and Albert Birch, two boys of Lapeer, iu order to have some “fun” poured kerosene on a dogandset tiro to it. The tortured beast ran into their father's bam, which was burned with its contents. The roof of W. Hutchin’s house across the road caught fire, and the building was saved considerably damaged. John Deem, a train dispatcher on the G.R. & I. R. IL nt Grand Rapids, married Julia Hopkins MCveral years ago, but did not deem it expedient to to give publicity to the fact, and re*' ceutly when she swore she would pub­ lish it, lie left tbe wicked city between two days. The matter is making a big secsatiou among the elite which uo was a member. The balance of cash in the state trea­ sury. April 30th was $2.037.695.77; re­ ceipts. for the week ending May 7tli, were $61,958.17; payments for same time $482,506.48; leaving a balance, May 7th 1881, of $1,617,142.46 of which $590,000 belong to the sinking fund, $801351.65 are held in the trust funds, and $725,790.81 are available for gen­ eral purposes.

In all this vast valley region there wm but one white settlement. It wm known ae Sutter's Fort It wan located near the confluence of tho Rio de loa Americanos with the Sac­ ramento. To the far south, beyond the sources of the San Joaquin nver, not far from the Pacific ocean, stood tho “Ciudadde los Angelea," Mexican in its construction and population. A Catholic mission at Santa Barbara and another at San Luis Obispo (Saint Louis, the Bishop); another at Monterey on the bay of that name; another at Santa Clara in the lovely valley of that name ; another called Mission. de San Jose not far from the latter, and another at the village of Yerba Buena, which has since grown into the city of San Francisco. It wab then a collection erf adobes, built around tho public square wo now call “the Plaza.” Tho waters of the bay extended us far m Montgomery street, where the Bank Exchange now stands, and a few whalers and small coasting schooners lay at anchor SOOfyards from shore, about where the pJstoffice now stands on Battery street. There were also American settlements ut Sonoma and Napa, composed of farmers who emigrated from tho Western States a few years before, and here and there arose along tho Ixjrders of the tule the smoke from the but of toe lonely trap­ per of beaver.

On tho 29th of Mat tho Californian issued a slip stating that its further pub- because nearly all its patrons had gone to tho mines. A month later there were but five persons—women and chiljlren—left in Yerba Bueno. Tho first rush was for Sutter’s Mill, since chris­ tened Coloma, or Oulluma, after a trilio of Indians who lived in that region. From there they scattered in all direc­ tions. A large stream of them went over to Weber creek, which empties into the American some ten or twelve miles below Coloma. Others went up or down the river. Some, moro adventur­ ous, croesed the ridge over to the north and middle forks of the American. By the close of June the discoveries had extended to all the forks of toe Ameri­ can, Weber creek, Hsngtown creek, the Cosumnes (known then as the Makosume), the Mokelumna, Tuolumne, the Yuba (from uvas, or yuvas—grape), called in 1848 tho “Yuba," or “Ajnba," and Feather river. On July 15 the edi­ tor of the Californian returned and is­ sued the first number of his naphr after its suspension. It contained a descrip­ tion of the mines from personal observa­ tion. He said : ■> “ The country from the Ajuba (Yuba) to the San Joaquin, a distance of about )20 miles, and from the base toward the summit of the mountains, m far as Snow hill (meaning Nevada), ul>out seventy milts, hoe boeu explored and gold found on every port There are now probobly 8,000 people, including Indians, engaged in collecting gold. The amount collect­ ed by each man ranges from $10 to $350 per day. The publisher of tliis pajier collected with the aid of a shovel, pick and a tin pan, from $44 to $128 per day—aver ogingj$100. The groan amount collected may exceed $600,000. of which amount our merchant* have received $250,000, all for goods, and in eight weeks. The larg­ est piece known to bo found weighs eight pounds." On toe 14th of August the number of white miners was estimated at 4,000. Many of them were ot Stephenson's regi­ ment and the disbanded Mormon battal­ ion. The Californian remarked on that day that “ when a man with his pan or bMket does not average $30 to $40 per day, he moves to another place."

Ho find* that in those part* ot tho -country where it has become the fashion to carry umbrel- (imbrellas are seldom carried unle**it actually rains, droughts are practically unknown. . What is the reason that the exhibition of a largo number of umbrellas clears th* aky and jiroducea dry weather? Th are atwkwo theories, both of which Professor Horknee* discusses with much Isarning and care, cither one of which he origi­ nally imagined might explain th* rela­ tions of'the umbrella to fair weather. One theory aamimes that the textile covering of the umbrella, whether it be silk, cot­ ton, gingham, or some other materia}, nlworlis the moisture of the atmosphere and so hinders its precipitation in the fun.-i of rain. This theory is plausible, imd it was believed at one time by the distinguished investigator that it would furufeli tiie solu^on of this problem. It follows, however, that if the covering of an umbrella absorb* the moisture of the atmosphere to such an extent as to dfej>el clouds an d to convert a cloudy and threatening day into a clear and bright one, this moisture would afterward be found in the umbrella in large quanti­ ties. Experiment* proved tliat the the­ ory was wrong. Umbrellas taken from the umbrella-stand st 9 o’clock on a cloudy morning, and carefnly tested for moisture, showed no increase of mois­ ture three hours later, when oil appear­ ances of rain hail vunfelicd. Tins test wa* oonclmdv*, and it puts the theory that the umbrella attracts moisture at The ether theory is what may be called an abstract theory. It assumes that rain and fair weather are dependent upon the presence or absence of a parr ticular kind of electricity in the air. As is well known, tbe riba of tho modern umbrella are made of steel, ametal that is simply full of positive electricity. When we take an umbrella with us into the <pen air on a day when tho moisture and tne atmosphere indicates that it is over­ charged with negative electricity, the following interesting phenomenon oc­ curs: The positive electricity of tho umbrella rib* flows into the atmosphere, and its place is taken by negative elec­ tricity until the atmosphere i* restored to a.. ory dry aua and normal state, state. Ware all. io h u cm this uu* mi, the umbrella would -be an unalloyed blowing, but, us a matter of fact, it is apt to overcharge the air with positive electricity, and thus produce long and injurious droughts. If, however, wo fail to toko an um­ brella with us on s morning when there is just a slight possibility of rain, there is do way in wluph the air can be gently relieved of its Overcharge of negative electricity. Tho result is that before very long the air relieves itself by dis­ charging its electricity into the earth, with the usual accompaniment of a heavy rain-shower, aud wo mournfully perceive that by our neglect a heavy Bolting suddenly into the place where >t with some kinds of timber, like the r<»y was disjiensed, leet lie should meet with another interru])tiou, he ran plump into a man who was coming out, snd knocked him sprawling upon tho floor amid the wreck of tumblers and wall by dissolving three-quarters of a bottles, tables, ohaire snd other articles which usually adorn the down-town halls of noonday feetivitiee.

There is many a building, as well os wooden fixtures near boilers and fire-place*, where the mixture could bo well sjiplied. A Cheap Paint.—For some years, says Prof. Knapp, we have txjen looking for a cheap paint that would answer all the purposes of our expensive leads and oils, and one the farmer could use on fence* and cheap outbuildings, one that qpuld answer both for outside and inside work ; also, one that would work well on rough surfaces. After many experi­ ments with lime and other material, the following exact!v fills the requirements : Good cement—the best builders’ cement will answer—four parte, iron paint one part, salt one-tenth, mix well, tliin with skim milk and apply with a whitewash brush. Convenience of spreading must determine the thickness of it It pene­ trate* the pores, and, when dry, adheres firmly to the wood. It doe* not rub nor wash, and performs all the offices of a first-class paint at one-twentieth of the cost for material. Few tilings add more to the neatness of a farm than well-con­ structed and painted outbuildings.

Tea is life only atini- ! ulant He never attends late dinners or ! suppers, and never has an ,,ont” After ' acting he is very much depressed and 1 likes to ho abed to recuperate during much of the next day. In the parlance of the day, Edwin Booth is a “re­ formed” man. From the time Junius Brutus Booth—his father—died in 1852, until tho assassination of President Lincoin by hfe brother John, in 1865, Edwin ! drank and drank hard, During the ! greater portion of that time the three most prominent, most talented and most dmiphted young men upon tho Ameri­ can stage were Wm. Goodall, Tl. A. Perry and Edwin Booth. Billy Goodall and Harry Perry are both dead—victims of drink. The terrible net of his brother , John roused Edwin from folly. It is I generally believed that John Booth, tho I assassin, was a very intemperate young । man, but such was not the case. It was Edwin who “ tossed the ruby "—John's weakness was women. Frcm the gay, roystering, reckless young madcap of twenty years ago, Edwin Booth is now, j and has long been, one of the sobercet . and gravest of men. He is naturally of a morbidly melancholic temperament, and, since his change in habits, he de­ lights in nothing but his professional . duties on the stage, and the companion­ ship of his family in tho seclusion of his home. Upon the street or in mingling among men he is habitually wrapped in gloflm. That he does not attend dinner 'parties and the like is not strange to those who know him, for he does not care for society, and never did—not aven in his youth.

A fear seems to have taken possession of many minds lest by the inventive genius of man maebiney might be pro­ duced capable of accomplishing so much os to remove the necessity for manual labor, and, as a consequence, lest they themselves should be unable to gain a livelihood. So widely have these views been imbilxHl, even by men of apparent intelligence of a comparatively high order, that they have advocated in strong terms, ujxin the rostrum and elsewhere, the desirability of not only banishing new machinery, but ii>ventors also. This opposition has made the path of those who jx>ssc88ed sufficient enterprise to lead them to devise new methods, and new apparatus to effect the same, not only unpleasant, but generally unprofitable; whereas if mankind had been more fully endowed with wisdom and brotherly love a very different state of affairs would have existed. The cry that “tho rich are growing richer and the poor are growing poorer, m the result of the introduction of new machinery is not true. In fact, the use of machinery is constantly improving the condition of all classes; and the advance that has been made by the masses to­ ward a higher civilization the last half century is simply wondered, and is duo to the development of the inventive genius of man. . That there is not an equitable distribution of the products of the tana, the mine, snd the manufactory cannot be denied. But where does tho tarilt lie?

YOUTHFUL BURGLARS. Several merchants and business men of this village have for some time been missing small amounts of money and various articles of merchandise from their places of business, and the per­ petrators of these petty thieves have evaded discovery until within the past week. Last week Friday.tlie bank waa entered by way ot the back door, by taking out a pane of gla&a and unlock­ ing the door with the key, which was left in the lock. The keys to the vari­ ous drawers in the counting room were found in one of the drawers, the monov till unlocked, a five dolla- bill taken, and the keys carried away. On Sun­ day F. C. Boise’s hardware store was entered via the back door,which Frank had inadvertantly le£t unlocked. The money till was cut and gouged with a jack-knife on the underside, but they failed to get the coverted money and commenced carving the counter direct­ ly over the till, but either from fear of being discovered, or tiring of working with such dull tools, the rogues left the premises. Later in the day T. C. Down­ ing obtained a clue to the perpetrators of the bank theft and inteiviewed Georgie Burgman, a lad only eight years old, who confessed to having taken part in k the thieving, and also told where they bad concealed the keys, in the shed back of Boise’s hardware On Tuesday Johnnie Reynolds aged about 7 years was discovered prying around in Frank Baker's shoe shop, while Frank was at dinner, and H. M. Lee went in and took him into his office and commenced questioning him in regard to the recent thefts, but the youthful prisoner was as silent as the grave, un­ til Lee took his hat and said he would go before Esq. Powers and have a war­ rant issued, when the little fellow beg­ ged him not to ge, and he would tell everything. He then related the par­ ticulars of the above thefts, stating that ho only watched while George did the work.'

Son Jose is very prolific in amateur theatricals, and, although we do not quite believe tho story that they have gotten so now down there that they haye to dispose of the tickets for those enter­ tainments by tho aid of pistols and masks, on dark nights, we can easily credit that when the traveling agent of an Eastern drug-house volunteered to pay tho hall-rent for one of their entertain­ ments, the other night, they gladly ac­ cepted the offer. All he Htipulated for in return, tho agent said, was a chance to use the stage accessories, should the opportunity present, with some few ad­ vertising references to the house ho rep­ resented. The play was "Romeo and Juliet," and on the evening of the performibice the company was somewhat disgusted to find that the agent had caused the programmes to be printed in such a manner as to have the name of each character followed by an urgent appeal to tho public to buy or try at least one box or bottie of some indispensable preparation, thus: Juhet - Mrs. Alvira Giggles (The love-lorn Juliet would havo been even more beautiful if *ho had used Botts’ Complexion Powders.) Romoo - - Mr. C. Jumper (The impetuous lover wouldn’t have had to wear a yellow wig if bad used eight or ten bottles of Botts’ Hair Helper,) Tybalt Mr. Hay Granger (Not even tho enormous pads worn by amateurs nowadays will keep out rheumatism uuless core is taken to rub in Botts' Skin Scalper.) But they managed to choke down their indignation until the balcony acene. As that interesting episode was well under way, the deeply interacted audience was surprised at beholding on unu»ual move­ ment on the part of the moon. Juliet hail just attracted attention to it by tho line, Bvear nd by tbs znsan, when that luminary turned solemnly around and displayed on ite nether aide the legend, in large black letters : "Try Botts’ Liver Pills I Oh. try ’em I ’’ The rest of this all-too-sod’story is soon told. Juhet burst into tears, and Romeo swore like a pirate walking the plank. The audience had their money returned at the door, and the nhow broke up. The agent, however, paid the ex­ penses agreed upon like a little man. He said that he was sorry the entertain­ ment hadn’t been a succesa somehow, but he thought he had gotten the requi­ site amount of r ’.vertising. He was satisfied.—Sa r ci^coBo A Society EriL tin us affairs. The decorations and toil- aa elaborate aa among older society followers.

The American's breakfast bill of fere is varied but little: beefsteak, fried or baked potatoes, griddle cake* with syrup, or hot muffins and biscuit, are the arti­ cle* he sighs for and will have, despite the threatening* of dyspepsia. Across the water, they shudder at tho American breakfast, while they discuss their chocolate, delicate rolls, soft-boiled egg* and fruit, with appetite. ' To those accustomed to more hearty food, it seems at first sight aa if it would be impossible to accomplish the work cr half the day upon a breakfast of rolls, eggs, anil chocolate; yet after one has become ac­ customed to the habit, it. is difficult to partake of a more suo*tantiol meal early in the day without discomfort And surely a breakfast of chocolate, rolls— fresh baked, but not hot—oatmeal, eggs and fruit, is fit for a king. It ia varied, nutritious, delicate, and easy to digest, and it contains nothing' fried, If we could only banish the saucepan's con­ tents from our breakfast-table, and bring up our children aquaUy to dread Satan and shun that which is fried! How many little ones in this free land, after cheer­ fully munching their crisp, greasy j>otatoes, and hot fried park or lieefateak, enter the school-room to fall into all lands of trouble. Their brains ore disorgan­ ized by the indigestible food they have eaten. If we should* feed them upon milk, 'oatmeal, and such nourishing things in tho morning; with plenty of rare, broiled beefsteak at noon, they might not develop immadiatelyin to little angels, perhaps, but thay certainly would have rosier cheek* and brighter minds. The question of what one shall eat is in­ exhaustible, however, and every one has a different opinion concerning it It is the busdnesa of Um housewife to know something about the subject from a chemical standpoint, and to regulate the dinners of her family so that they may not only be palatable but healthfuL family where there are no children; but after there are denied a diet may be pre­ scribed which is at once wholesome and appetizing.

Onr people were thrown into a high fntch of excitement on Monday mornng. when tbe nows went out tliat burg­ lars had been making a good haul from our people. The burglars arrived about twelve o’clock on the previous uieht from the south. The took a splendid mare, harness and buggy, worth at least $250,from Jerome Waltz From there they went to C. A, Hough’s wagon shop, nnd entering a back win­ dow took tools enough to complete the jobs they was about to undertake. Then proceeded to John Holmes, store, a’light was burning, Mr. Robinson hap­ pening there at a very late hohr, con­ sequently that store was not disturbed. He saw the three thieves and thought that some of the boys were trying to play a joke on him and did nothing about it. (Let mo add right here that our men were notified by the depnty sheriff of Vermontville on. that very day to look ont for thieves.) From there they went to Frank Hilberts store and commenced prying out a window in the rear of tho store, Lewis Borden was sleeping in the store. He had three dogs, besides plenty ot musketry with him. The dogs made so much niosc when the glass was broken out of the window that Lewis was awakened and got np, when the bnrglars took to theirheete. Next they broke into Nick Brown’s house and took from his pants pocket $15. From there they went to J. W. Stinchcomb's and entered his room.took $26 from his pants. While at the latter place they concealed their horse and buggy In Holbrook’s wheat held. From there they went to Fred Shcys,barn but Fred possessed! an ugly horse and titey failed to get the harness on him and left it. Oiir deputy sheriff woe notified at 3 o’clock or the burglaries and he started in search of the thieves, and fonnd they had went north to Jordan Lake, then turned around and went south one mile and thence west. ■ 5(r. Waltz immediately offered a re­ ward of $25 for the return of his prop­ erty and SheriffHoughtalin an aditional $23 for a clue to the thieves. On Wednesday the rig was heard from, the thieves having left it near Saranac tho previous day, accompanied with a note, stating that the rig belonged at Woodland, that they did not take it from any mercenary motives, but aimthrough necessity, and thus the mat­ ter stands at this writing. However we can draw no other inference but that those burglars ought to have been captured. According to Wilkinson’s own report he was dogging aronnd the alleys and. byways of Vt. Ville long enough to have aroused a regiment. Then the notice sent to Woodland ought to have stirred up a little inter­ est there, but wo find a business man, who saw tbe burglars in actual work upon his place of bdsiness, imagining that they were boys endeavoring to play h joke upon him. The sheriffs of tho two ^unties arc now zealously working up the case, but whatever is the result VLVille and Woodland must look npon the matter as “lost oppor­ tunities:” Later.—News came Friday morning that the scout, or advance agent of the gang of burglais, was arrested on the train between Middleville and Grand Rapids, on Thursday night. A woman or at least, * being in woman’s clothes, brought two men to Middleville, on Thursday, and one of them, it was no­ ticed had on false wlliskers, the wire which fastened them being visible. This fact led to the suspicion that he was a fit subject for arrest, and a tele­ gram was according sent to have him captured. Officers are on tbe track of the being in woman’s clothes, and it is probable that the gang will be speedily brought to justice. oommoF oouhoS^proceedihqb. LOCAL MATTERS. important to travelers.

Evolution in Gambling. [Fnau Um N<nr York Son.) The businees of manufacturin'’ gam­ bling implemunts thrives with the gen­ eral prosperity of tho country. In nil . the large dties, particularly in New York and Chicago, there are eatabl-iKhmenta whence are acatterod throughout ■the country the implements of the trade. Although the law confiscates these im­ plements when men' are caught in the act of using them, there is nolaw against their manufacture and sale. The goods aro therefore made and sold openly. When the police break up a gambling den they- take away till the tools. But within twenty-four hours everything can be replaced and the game goes on us befdle. The mails'aud the'exprees cars go constantly laden with gumblingtools. The prices 'are generally high ami vary but Little, as the >comi>etiuon is nut great except in tho cominoucat articles, such iv> cards nnd chips. All tiie latest improvements in the mechanic arts are brought to bear in tiie manufacture. In ahort, there is -evolution in gambling, as well as in every tiling else. A curious feature. <>f the business is that the different pro­ cesses of cheating are unblnshingly ad­ vertised and sold. A reporter rwentlv visited a queer eBtablishmont of this kind in Nassau street, which has been in full blast for twenty years. Tho pres­ ent proprietor has managed the busine&s fox seven yearn, and says he bought it of a well-known actor, whose rapid riso in \the dramatic profession caused him to sell out. He is a short, q>are man, about 42 years old, with keen black eyes. Ha not only made no secret of his solo of implements for cheating at various gam­ bling games, but was willing to exhibit and explain thorn. He said he had often l»een told by gamblers that ho was in­ juring tho busdaeas by exposing tho tricks, but ho had come to the conclu­ sion that men would gamble, and that each player would somehow think that he could get the best of tho game. “ What is the cost of a set of faro tools?” “ First you want a dealing box. An honest box, that will pull one card at a time, costa from $10 to $15. But if you want. a box from w Inch the dealer may pull one or two cards at will, without de­ tection, it will cost von from $35 to $75. Hera is a crooked box. By pressing a spring the dealer may pull two cards. He has previously fixed the pack so that ho knjws the order. You cun never win unless he chooses to permit .it. Some­ times he will let you rake down bet after bet for small amounts. Then, when you play high, he touches the spring and your money is gone. Borno dealers have two boxes exactly alike. One is level or honest; the other is crooked. I inode a crooked box tho other day to match one that was brought here, ’and when my customer came for it ho oould not pick out the new one. Tho ma­ chinery for these crooked boxes is very delicate, and requires a first-class me­ chanic to make it. ' An expert dealer will pull two cards instead of one, and the closest scrutiny will not detect it The -faro spread or cloth lay out, with all the cards in tho pack painted or glued on it, on which tbe betters lay their money, costs from $10 to $16. The case-keeper, used to record the cards drawn, costs from $7 to $20. Borno players abject to tho use of these as oflwing a chance to cheat To protect the players what ore called cue cards aro ti per 1,000, Then there is a oardrresa for holding the cards, which costs from $4 to $8 ; a check-rack costa 35; ivory checks, from 330 to 337.50 per 100. Composition checks are sold as low as 380 per 600." . “In what game do you think there is .the most cheating ? ” “At present there is more cheating in-draw-poker lieoause it is played every­ where. I have seen lawyers, doctors, everybody playing poker. As for Poker Schenck, I have heard that liia ingenious rules were invented for tho purjioso of permitting a Congressman to win when a member of the third horn: e wanted him way of marking ar.rds is ou the bocks st the time of their manufacture. Hera aro aeventccn different stylos«of marked cards which I Mill all over the United States. To an ordinary obaurvar the backs are of an intricate and symmet­ rical pattern ; hut I can tell at a glance every rtirfl in any on? of the seventeen pa.—." “How can onft remember so many thiru-cn markii will expose the cards in each suit. Although lim maria are so plain that they eon be road aa f« M ywi can see a card, they are ao covered up to the scroll work and patterns tiiat you would not notice them unless they were j xjin tod out to . you. Sometimes the marks are in the fold of a flag; somotimes in the turn of an ornamental scroll. Here is a pack that is apparently orna­ mented on the back with a marble pat­ tern, By looking at the upper left-hand comer you can plainly see a heart, spade, club or diamond carelessly thrown into the pattern. All the high cards are danoted by the different positions of a lit­ tle scoop. This a gentle reminder of tho way the Ixjys get scooped by them. AU the low cards are inariwd with various positions of a little device that looks like the butt of a pistol. A casual oTieerver might think' the books are aU each “ l,rinte“ from » *T*ratcly engraved tiack.

Soma gam- course a man has a right to scratch his neck. He can either . scratch down or scratch it out Some mon have a knack of disposing of surplus cards by kiting theia to a distant port of the room with a dexterous flip. It does not look well, however, after u game is end­ ed, to see cuds lying about tbo room." “ In there much demand for these im­ plement fur cheating? ” . *• Much ; and constantly increasing. I gst letters all the time brom men who say they are cut so many hundred dol­ lars. They think they have been cheat­ ed, but they can't tell how. They want soma method of getting square with the game. Once'in a while I meet a xnaa who shrinks from using these tools. I can't understand that When I play jxiker I want to win. If you have tho tools you /ban win every time." “ Bnt'wiU you not bo suspected if you win every time T* “Yes, but that makes no difference so long aritey let you play. I knew a gambler once who went into a nice little party of business men of whom he bad been winning 350 a night for a few weeks. Ho found four men sitting at a, table. They all know him, and said, ‘ Good evening, Doc. ’ He said, ' How are you, boys ?. Can't you move up and, give me a stack of chips T They said, •Not this time, Doc, we’ve made a rule cards in poker ? ’ You can tell every man’s hand as it is dealt before he knows it himself. If ho gets a low hand you can often bluff him out of his stake at the start. If he gets a high hand you know when to keep out. But. when your turn oomee to deal you can give eacn player whatever cards you please. Wateh me deal this pack. I will give you, while you are watching me, either tho second or third card from around that table. Then he knew they the top without detection. If I see a had dropped on him.

Hare also are the remains of Francis L, wboee wife, the heroic Maris Theresa, is said to have visited his tomb daily for thir­ teen years, until she died and was laid ■beside him. As a precaution against premature resurrection, the hearts and intestines ot the royal corpses are re­ moved and buried far away Horn the Ospucin Church. •** The Mound Builders were a rase of jx>ople very different in their habits and modee of hie from the Indians who oocupied all the country at the time of the advent of tho whites. They are now re­ garded as a distinct aud extinct race. Of their history very little is known, ex­ cept what can be gathered from the mounds and wails which they built; most of these ore made of earth or gravel They are usually found overgrown by living and decaying trees, from which we have the proof that they have been abandoned at least 1,000 years. Wo have proof also that the Mound Builders worked the copper mines of Lake Su­ perior, lead mines near Lexington, Ky., ■ind oil wells in Canada mid Pennsyl­ vania. Tho remains of the Mound Builders are spread over a vast extent of country. They are found in the sources of the'Allegheny, in tho western parts of the State of New York, and in nearly all of the Western Stales, including Michigan and Iowa. They line the shores of the Gulf of Mexico from Texas to Florida, whence they extend through Alabama and Georgia into South Caro­ lina. From all the facte known little more can 1« raid than this: That tho valley of tho Mieshudppi and Atlantia oorat were once densely populated by a sedentary, agri ulturul and partially civilized’ race, quite dsfiterent from the modern Indians, though possibly the progenitors of sumo of the Indian tribes that after many centuries of occupation; they disappeared from our country at least 1,000, perhaps many thousands, of years before tho advent of the Euro­ peans. • The Turkey. Many conjectures have been hazarded to how the very inappropriate name of “turkey” baa been applikl to a bird which we know was introduced from America. I believe the truth of the matter to be this : Several, if not most, of the medieval zoologists—I may-par­ ticularly cite Belon and Aldrovandua— hopelessly confounded the turkey and the guinea-fowl under the name, proper to the latter, of Meleagris. Gesner must, indeed, bo nxoepted, for he clearly raw that the turkey was not the Meleagris, and, finding it had been written of as Gallus peregrinua or Pavo Indians, he accordingly (in 1555) ooined for it the names GaUopavus or Pavogailus, which he used almost indiscriminately. But this confusion waa not confined to natu­ ralists. We have in Cooper’s edition of tho “Bibliotheca Eliotee,” published in 1542, “ Maleagridea, byrdes which we doo vail hennea"—the earliest use of the latter name with which I am acquainted. It is, therefore, obvious that “Turkey m fusion waa, of course, gradually cleared up, and the name “turkey" dlovo to the bird from the new world; not, I think, without some reason, for bv ita con­ stantly repeated call-note, which may be syllabled “ turk, turk. turk,” it may be said to have named xtaelt—NoIm and Queries. rly stranger bought a copy at irum a newsboy and handed keep it for yourself,” This wm probably the first kind wori* that had ever lieen apoken to the hoxnehim.

Beecher says something on this subject which all women will ap­ preciate. “ All men,*’ remarks this dis­ tinguished gentleman, “ought to go to the woods and do their own washing and general work, such as swooping, house­ keeping and dish-washing. Tho work of women is not spoken of sensibly by men till they have done it themselves. Gentlemen readers, it is easy to talk, but just try it on a very jufedeflt scale once, and you will honor working women more than ever. Do as I have done— member that a woman turns off 200 at your soap and see how much you have used. Look at your white clothes, handkerchiefs and towels and see what ahave done, and never again speak hly of or to a woman on washingday. nor of laundry work as if it were unskillful labor.

She doesn't always care for it, but makes » practice of reading it, because she thinks she ought to. She read* stories, and sketches, and para­ graphs indiscriminately, and believes every word of them. Finally, after she has read all ahe intends to, she lays the paper down with an air of disappoint­ ment, and a half-contemptuous gesture, which says very plainly that she thinks all newspapers miserable failures, but is certain tliat if ah« had a chance she could make the only perfect newspaper tho world had ever seen.

It is not to be wondered at, that the hearts of the peace officers swelled with patriotism, the hearts of the cap­ italists with anxiety, and the hearts of the common people with fear and missgivings. The arms and munitions of war, such ns butcher-knives, crow-bars, and stuft edclubs were distriubuted among vol­ unteers who were to station themselves tn some secluded spot, where toe enemy .was least likely to attack, but perad venture should one happen to discover said volunteers, to scare him without mercy. Some of the merchants, fear­ ing that toeit safes would prove in­ sufficient in the hour of peril, that was expected, noiselessly slid .their coin-in­ to their boot-legs, fastened their pa­ lter money in pockets located in the sent of their breeches, glided stealthily down the back alleys to their respect­ ive honses, aud with a" derringer in each hand for musketry attacks, and a shot-gun for heavy cannonading, passed a a long, sleepless night, guard­ ing their coffers. * Watchman Stevens’ duty callefl him into active patrol duty, and trim­ ming the lamps nt the depot with extra care and lighting them, he left to pre­ ambulate through the different precints and wards of the city, aud when he returned, lo! -what a scene met hifi gaze!

' Lee was not more than four or----Are years old, hardly big ujough to go out to slide all by himself, but his par­ ents allowed him to do so in some places. Not far from the house was a very deep ravine, with steep, rough sides, and ho was expressly forbidden to slide near that Lee’s father was a stern man, and when ho said to him, “Never go near the ravine with you sled," Lee did not okre to think of disobeying. To tell the truth, he was more afraid of hi* father than of the ravine. There came a thaw, and then a freeze, and the fields were a sheet of ice. Lee was out with his little sled, ever so for from the ravine, but when he slid doWu a small hill, the sled didn't stop, but kept on going, going. The snow and ice were so hard that he could not stick in his heels at all, so he could do nothing to stop the sled though it was going fast towards the ravine: He just clung on tight, and shut his eyes when the sled went over tho bank, down, down among tho rocks and bushes. His sister Dora chanced to see him from the window. “Ohl oh!” she scream­ ed EG terror. “Lee has slid over into tho ravine!" . Such a commotion as there was in the house! Father, mother, brothers and sisters, the hired man, and kitchen girl, all rushed out, and ran as fast as they oould to the edge of the bank. Their hearts fairly stood still as they peered down into the depths below, ex­ pecting to see the dear little body all senseless and mangled. Lee had just picked himself up, when he heard the tumult of voices above, and looking up buw his father’s white, scared fooe. “O father!” he piped, in a weak, trembling voice, “if you won't whip mo this time, I won't never come down here again!" A little girt is singing in a small room in a large street of Stockholm. She is hmahing and dusting and Ringing, for her mother is the mistress, and she help* keep the school room in‘order; and she warbles ns aho works, like a happy bird A lady one day happened to ride by in her carriage; the little girl's song reached her ear, and the ease, grace, and earnest Bweotneas of the voice touched her heart The lady stopjied her carriage, and wont to hunt the little songster. Small she indeed was, and shy, and not pretty, but of a pleasant look. “I must take your daughter to Crclina," said tho lady to her mother. Cnelius was a famous music master—“she has a voice that will make her fortune.” Make her fortune! ah, what a great make that must be, I suppose the child thought, and wondered very much. The lady took her to tho music master, who wna delighted with her voice, and he said: “I must take her to Count Puche,” a great judge in such matters. Count Puche looked coldly at her, and gruffly asked what the music master ex­ pected him to do for such a child as that “Only hear her sing," said Cnelius. Count Puche condesounded to do that; and the instant she finished, he cried out, well pleased: “She shall have all the advantages of Stockholm academy.” So the little girl found favor, and soon her sweet voice charmed all the city. She sang and studied, and studied and sang. She was not yet twelve, and was she net in danger of being spoiled? I supjxjse her young heart often beat with a proud delight as praise fell like showers upon her. . _ One evening she was announced to sing a higher part than she had ever had, and one it haa long been her ambition to reach. The house was full and every­ body was looking out for their little fa­ vorite. Her time came but aho was mute. She tried, but her silvery notes were gone; her master was P7, her >and re­ friends were filled with surp ____ how she gret, and the poor her voice come dropped her headl __________ __________ imck tho next day?

Men Who Wear Beards. Owing, perhaps, to a dearth of topice, a writer in a Parison paper discourses upon genius and beards and makes the subject anything but uninteresting. He challenges proof that, apart from a very few exceptions, no great orator ever wore beard- a moustache. Among eminent French speakers and statesmen, Mira­ beau, Danton, Vergniaud, Berryer, Foy, Manual, Chateaubriand, De Broglie, Mole, Odillon Barrot, Casimir Perier, Guizot, Thiers’ and Moutalembert all shaved. The mustache is thought to be a distinctive military adornment, yet it was not worn by Alexander, Cawar, Pom­ pey, Trajan nor Napoleon. Revolutionists are popularly supposed .to be marked by unkempt beards; yet Robespierre, Marat, Saint-Just and Herbert were care­ fully shaven. Of French writers Rnd poets, Moliere and Corneille wrtre the Richelieu mustache; bnt Racine, Pascal, La Fontaine, Boileau, La Bruysre, Vol­ taire, Rosscau, Diderot, Montesquieu and all the thinkers and savants of tho eighteenth century indulged in a clean shave. So did Dante, Petrarch, Byron, Shelly, Pope, Addfaon, Sheridan, Gold­ smith, Swift, Johnson, Fielding, Rich­ ardson, Pitt, Burke and Fox. One fact, however, the writer appears to overlook: profeason permitted their beards to grow in the tho times of a great majority of tho celebrities enumerated above.'

In the South Indian ocean there fa the * 'south equatorial current" which sweeps past Mauritius and Bourbon, and thence returns toward the east. In theObinese sea there is the north equatorial current, which sweepe round the East Indian archipelago, and then merges into the Japanese current There fa also the current in tha Bay ef Bengal, flowing through the region in which, as we have seen, cyclonec are commonly met with. There are ether sea-currents beside these which yet breed no cyclones. But we may notice two peculiarities in ths currente we have named. They all flow from equatorial to temperate regions, and secondly, theyK are all "horseshoe currents. ” . . Now, if we inquire why an ocean curreut traveling from the equator should be a “atom breeder,” we shall find a ready answer. Such a current, carrying' the warmth ot intertropical regions to ths temperate zones, produces in tho first place, by. the mere difference of temperature, important atinoepherio disturbanoea. But the warmth of the stream itself is not the only cause of atmospheric dis­ turbance. Over the warm water vapor fa continually rising ;’and, as it~rfaes, fa continually condensed (like the steam from a locomotive) by the colder air •round. “An observer on the moon,” says Capt Maury, “would, on a winter’s day, be able to trace out by' the mist in j. ths air tho path of tho Gulf Stream through the sea.” Bnt what must hap­ pen when T*]K>r fa condensed? We know that to turn water into vapor fa a process requiring—that is, using up—a large amount cf heat; and, conversely, the return of vapor to the state of water sets free an equivalent quantity of heat The amount of heat thus set free from the Gulf Stream fa thousands of times greater than that which would be gen­ erated by the whole coolsupply annually raised in Great Britain. Here, then, we have an efficient cause for the wildest hurricanes. For along tho whole of the Gulf Stream, from Bernini to the Grand Banks, there fa a channel of heated, that fa, rarefied air. Into thfa channel the denser atmosphere on both sides fa continually pouring, with greater or less strength. When a storm begins in the Atlantic, it always makes for this chan­ nel, “ and, reaching it, turns and follows it in its course, sometimes entirely across tho Atlantic." By a like reasoning we uan account for the cyclonic stoi ms prevailing in the North Pacific ocean. Nor do the torna­ does which rage in parts of the United States present any serinua difficulty. The region along "which those storms travel fa the valley of the great Missis­ sippi. Thfa river at certain seasona fa considerably warmer than tho surround­ ing lands. From its surface, also, aque­ ous vapor fa continually being raised. When the surrounding au- is colder, thfa vapor fa prreently condensed, generating in the change a vast amount of heat. We have thus a channel of rarefied air aver the Mississippi valley, and thfa channel becomes u storm track, like tho corresponding chann..-!s over tne warm ocean currents.—Prof. R, A. Proctor. An Audience with Queen Bess. Among the archives at tho Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Paris is a curious doc­ ument which will be quite as interesting to English as to French readers. It is au account by Hurault de Maisso of the English Court in 1597. His first inter­ view with Elizabeth took place on tho 8th of December in that year, and fa de­ scribed with graphic minuteness. Ono of the court carriages camo for tho Am­ bassador of Henry IV., and conducted him to the Thames, where a boat was awaiting him, which immediately put off and deposited him at the entrance to Whitehall.

To this question the answer u distinct, though given with the reserve -which the subject justifies. For the beet that is known, we ara chiefly in­ n. cwho ii.twas __________ debted to Dr. 0. C. Abbott, the first to call attention to the stone imple­ ments found in the glacial deposits of the Delaware valley. These implements are chiefly of argefiite, though examples of flint occur at higher levels. They have been found at the bluffs near Tren­ ton, both in position where deposited and among the debris at the base. Dr. Abbott says: “Perhaps it fa a wise caution that fa exercised, in but provfafenally admitting tho great antiquity of American man, but were these rude implemente not attributed to an inter-glacial people, their co-cqual age with containing beds would never have l>een questioned." On thfa point the curator di the Peabody Museum at Cambridge observed, in hfa tenth annual report: “Dr. Abbott has probably obtained data which show that man* existed on our Atlantic coast, during the time of, if'not prior to, the formation of the great gravel dejxeit which extends toward the coast from the Delaware River, near Trenton, and believed to have been formed by glacial action. From a visit to tho locality with Dr. Abbott, I see no reason to doubt the general conclusion he has reached in regard to the existence of man iu glacial times ou the Atlantia Cotta in Popular Science Monthly.

A recent illus­ tration was the mobbing of Billy Niakell, who had incured their displeas­ ure by giving information to the reve­ nue authorities about illicit distilleries. Forty men rode to Billy’s cab^i in the night to hang him. They sur­ rounded the hut, so that he might not escape, and set up a yell to call him out. He. did not emerge cowering and supplicating, but with a rifle across his shoulder and his head up. The regu­ lators fled precipitately, a few of the more valiant stopping for an Instant to kill Billy’s dog.________________ The admirer of two girls at Wpupaca, Oregon, could" not choose between them, and neither was willing to relin­ quish her claims in favor of the other.

Unfortunately, the purse of the Commissioners are not very heavy; and if much lightened by the purchase of even such valuable historic relics as a glass goblet, at $1,000, it will probnnot be adequate to sundry other things of great importance in the practical celebration.

The question of story-telling is rather a nice one. Swift regards it as not alto­ gether a contemptible talent, “consider­ ing how low conversation now runs among us,” but he justly remarks that the story-teller should change his com­ pany very often, “that he may not dis­ cover the weakness of his fond.” And. indeed, this is the very melancholy port of the story-teller's life, that, however agreeable he may be as an acquaintance, no man in his senses will consent to be­ come intimate with him and stand the fire of his eternal repetitions.

I at once entered into allvely con­ versation with the doctor, asked about tbe health of the people and many other questions of leas import, and was just about to let my business be known when I discovered some­ thing lying in one corner of the room, which caused me to have a shaking spell something similar to the shaking ague. “Well” says the doctor “that's a man's skull, slot used to see­ ing such things are you!” I answered in the negative and arose to go, but tbe 'octor had me keep ity seat, remarking at the same time, that be would show me soma of the peculiarities of the human skull, “though I no doubt,” says he, “that you would prefer seeing a woman’s skull, but I have one there Id that box, (giving it a kick which rolled it out into the middle of tbe floor) but I will first give you a hurried description of man's intellectual torch, and then we will attend tothe woman.” Taking the skull he sat down as close to us as circum­ stances would permit, and commenced his ex­ planation.

We will not endeavor to give tbe description of tbe skull as he gave lt,nor could we, if we wished to, but be concluded by In­ forming us that the under jaw was to large for the head, stating that tbe original jaw had got broke and that be had fastened a larger one on with wires. “And now” says he, “What do you suppose tbe Lord will say to this chap, when the golden morning dawns, and Grabriel blows his horn. He'will probably say” says he “John, old boy where to your jaw.” (At tbe same time working the jaw.) It was evident that tbe doctor saw that he had greeny (but never thought as he had a reporter) and at once conceived the idea of having some sport, and giving us a good scare.

The day after Senator Hayno of South Carolina delivered his celebrated phil­ ippic against New England, and Massa­ chusetts in particular, Daniel Webstar answered it by the greatest speech of his life. All over tho country surprise was expressed that such a masterly reply aliould have been composed within twelve hours. But the fact was that Mr. Webstar had been for years jireparing that speech. One of ita strongest constitutional argu­ ments had t>oen written a long time be­ fore, aa a professional opinion. Nd oecarion had called for its public utterance until Mr. Hayne made one. Then tho great orator had Lut to marshal forces already equipped, and hurl them at tho aafiailant of hi* state.

There is just the connec­ tion between an individual and Lis country, through the classes with which he is most familiar, that thero is be­ tween the sentiment of egotism and the sentiment of patriotism, through the middle sentiment of parts.hiality. Thir particular habit of whistling, therefore, may have spread from a potlx>y to n people, passing through many steps of class contagion by the way. Few Frenchmen whistle, and Italians never. The French, indeed, have a proverb on the subject, which is not cximplimentary to their lively neighbors, ourselves. When Germans whistle, and *it is not often they do. it is with melody prepense. They cultivate odd gift* of amusement, those convivial Teutons, and whistling is sometimes practiced among them a* an acoomplishinent. But it is precisely because a German whiatles with skill that he keeps his endow­ ment for service when called upon, anil seldom whistles in public, or without being asked. Tho Englishman who can­ not whistle does. Do we not all know the stolid fat man of a few words, but of one unceasing sound, who w so entirely the creature of habit that he takes up tho some position at regular periods, and if he cannot get his accustomed chair pines nervously in another ?

His whist itle is not the shrill | piping of the plebeian youth, who suffer* not the drowsy air to tium'ner nor the sharp winter wind to tc ' thrill ’ him ’ '* into silence, JL.

His ' whistle is tho most irritating of all, for ho seems to bo perpetually suffering from n bail tune in tho head, which he js vainly trying to whistle away.

They fell outoghiteat work in the mine, and agreed io meet next morning, armed with revolvers. A crowd gathered at the appointed time and place, and no­ body attempted to heal the quarrel, while partisans of the antagonists in­ cited-them to the encounter. Brooks fired •first, and the bullet passed through Love’s «>ody. "Give it to him back, Love?* cried one of Love’s friends, aud Brooks received a' wound in the breast. The spectators yelled like factions at a prize fight, and tbe com­ batants kept oh firing until the revol­ vers were.emptied. Both men were mortally wounded.____________ • Ida Holly of Itasca,Minn., sent a note to her lover, Sol Grtismer, with whom «he had quarrelled, asking him to come on a certain night ani elope witii her. Sol. was elated by the idea of marrying her, partly because ho wished to tri­ umph over her parents, who had op­ posed the match. He was under her window with a ladder at midnight. She came down, dressed as though for ajourney, and kissed him. They sat down, at a little distance from the house, and discussed the question which direction to take. Ida was in Sol’s lap, witii one arm thrown about bis neck, when with tho disengaged hand, she cut his throat with a raizor. Having murdered him, as she supposed, she ran back to her bed; but tbe wound was not mortal. It it conjectured tliat she intended his death to be attributed to suicide, as she was careful to regain the letter which had lured him. "Every effort is made," said a rail­ road officer, " to procure trustworthy, faithful employes, but all kinds of de­ ceptions are gotten up to throw us off.

He was a married man and his wife was onoe a school-teacher, and through her efforts ha was able to commit to memory the rules as printed an th« time-cards, and he had them so thoroughly fixed in his mind tliat ho could pain t th em out on th? curd, but he was just m liable to do so with the card bottom side up as in any other shape. Ho was a good engineer, but we were obliged to let him go. He went to Srark to learn to both read and write. He spent one whole winter at it but he was too for along in years to be successful, aud finally was obliged to give it up, and today he is firing on the road.Albany Knickerbocker.

It is served every day, and it is the only meal to which strangers are invited.’7 The well-known stinginess of the Swiss ren­ ders this extremely probable. It is to be hoped that the tea was better in those days than it is now, or a short time ago. One shudders on recalling to mind the appalling mixture contained in the ho­ tel teapots. Let us end with a statement of Bal­ zac's. Wc ccnnot pretend to know, whence ho derived it. The English Government (date not mentioned) al­ lowed three criminals condemned to death to choose between l>eing hung or to live exclusively on tee, coffee or chocolate, without adding any other nourishment whatever, or being permit­ ted to drink any other liquid. 'Iliey ac­ cepted, and drew lots for tho drink. The one who lived on chocolate died in eight months. The one who lived on coffee lasted two years. But tho man of tea enjoyed existence for three years. Balzac adds details of tho particular way in which each died; but they would hardly bo welcome at the dinner or breakfast table.—London Globe. .

IN A SHANTY. “Mr, Alwade. thia in Molth, the cook.’ Y^allaoe Alwado turned partly around, facing tho small, delicate woman, who stood but partially revealed in the shad­ ows of the long, low-roofed ahanty. For one instant he stood gazing in­ tently into tho pale face of tho timid, retiring creature before him, then ex­ tended lus hand, with a polite bow and pleasant word of greeting. “Maith, the cook." What a thrill shot through hia heart at the mention of the name. As their hands clasped in the dim firelight, and he ■ ing look into her thi " Meltha, I am co Alwade's mind grew troubled. » That face, so thin and pale, with long­ ing, regretful aliadows lurking in the vidbteyes, touched a half-forgotten chord in his bachelor heart. It was but a dreamy reflection of the past, however. He remembered, where he was, and turned away without thinking deeply. It was not likely that an almost forgotten dream would meet with fruition in a place like thia, a dingy lumber shanty in the heart of the great pin* woods. A minute later the jingle of sleigh­ bells cut the frosty night nir. “Well, Mrs. Watson, I must be going,” said the lumber dealer, turning toward the door. “Won’t you stay all night, Mr. Alwade?”- . “Impossible, my good woman. I have important business to attend to in town. I find that your husliond is managing affairs very well in tho woods. I think I can safely trust him to go on with the job.” “Tattlers’ tongues to tho contrary, eh?” returned tho rosy-faced matron, with a rippling laugh. • "Yes, tho stories I have beard are all false, Mrs. Watson. I shan’t trouble myself about these flying reports again, rest assured. ” “Thank you, Mr. Alwado. My hue­ band ahall know of your generosity." “Facta are stubborn things,” returned Alwade. “Tho job is progressing well under Mr. Watson’s management, and I am only too glad to place the credit where it belongs." ■ Thus speaking tho rich lumberman left tho room and entered tho aloigh that stood waiting at tho door. Speeding over tho glistening snow, under tho tall pines, with the keen win­ ter air cutting like a knife, Walace Al­ wado felt strangely invigorated after contact with tho'close air a‘the lumber shanty. • Thai evening, after reaching hie room, Alwade found time for reflection. The face of "Molth, the cook," pale, worn, and timid, haunted him once more, like ihe dim memory of a half-forgotten dream. Why did ho give the pale-faced shanty cook a second thought? Simply because this was not tue first time he had oeen that face. In pondering over the subject, Alwade came suddenly into full knowledge why ho had been so him. He stood under the gaslight plaad■ag for the love of as beautiful a girl as the sun ever shoo a on. Sa could aoo the haughty curl of the full red lipc, see the scornful flash of those violet eVM, and even feel the sting * "* ’ fell from the maiden's. refusing him, few student, without name er fortune in fteworM. Hi. hope, were enwbed for­ ever. He went our into the world withe -not rcuudn another day under tbiz roof. Mzltma." There was not tho slightest clew in this brief note to guide his steps. There were but fey settlers in tho woods, liowever, and ho felt tliat it would be an easy matter to discover the whereabouts of the missing woman. Once morc-outaide, the winter air touched his cheeks with icy fingers, and a shudder convulsed his frame as he thought of poor, little, helpless Meltha, exposed to the cold under a pitiless win­ ter sky, with no home, no place to lay her head. It was his duty to find her before night and offer her a - better situation than the one she had but lately occupied. A sudden snow-storm came up, which soon filled the road, so that Aiwade's swift bays found it difficult to make any­ thing but the slowest headway. Down in fleecy billows the snow sifted, filling tho air and covering tho ground completely. Tho wind rose, whirling the snow up against the pines in huge drifts. The track was no longer visible. Huge banks of snow blocked the way, and the lumberman came suddenly to a full knowledge of the fact that it would soon be impossible for him to proceed. “Ugh! what a fearful night we’re hav­ ing!" muttered tho lumberman, as he buttoned his great coat more closely, and strove to poor ahead through the blind­ ing storm. “Suppose Meltha hasn't found a shelter?" The thought sent a chill to his heart. On and on the horses foundered, the drifts growing deeper, the storm fiercer, meantime. The wind rose to a gale, hurling tho ■now in sheeted masses through the air, while the gloom of approacliing night settled down upon the forest. Alwade consulted his watch in some surprise. "So late?" he muttered. “I did not think I was going at such a snail’s pace. Now I’m in a fix, to bo sure." His horses, struggling in adeeper drift than usual, came suddenly to a halt Alwade peered about him. Tho forest looked'strange and new to film. Tha truth suddenly flashed upon his brain. “I see: Fve lost tho main road, some­ how, and this is some one of the many old logging tracks,” mused the lumber­ man, forgetting Meltha for the time, under the difficulties of his own situation. Night was setting in rapidly. The storm still raged furiously. There was no chance of finding the right road to­ night. If this was a log-road, there must be an end somewhere, and then he would find shanties. He touched his horsee with the whip. After eevsral attempts, the noble ammals cleared the drift and moved slowly on. The storm seemed to increase in fury every minute. If he found no shelter soon, Alwade feared for the wwpeqitiMMWn, Peering anxiously aha^d, a d darksnow—L. capped pile met his Straining vision. The next minute his horsee stood steam­ ing beside a half-ruined log-shanty. It was almoet dark naer, but Alwade quietly unhitched from the cutter, and drove his team under tho friendly shelter. Tho Doubts and Anxieties of« Bride­ Expectant. I was standing on the platform of the Central depot the other day, waiting for tho train for Boston, when a woman probably born near tho opeifing of the present century, cams to me and said: “ You are a stranger to me, sir." “ Yes/’ I replied, looking at her bon­ net and'wondering how many years old it wac\ “I om'aorry,” said she, with a sigh. “Why so?’r said 1 . “Because if I felt acquainted I would like to speak to you." ^She had already spoken twice. “ Try and feel acquainted," said I, encouragingly. . “ Then you have no objection to mo telling you my story?” “ How .many chapters are there?” I inquired. “ Is it long or short?" “Short," she replied. “Begin,” said I, “ the train will be here soon.” “I am in distress," said the woman. “ What caused it?” I inquired, “mince pie or cabbage?" “Oh, no, nothing that I over eat , hurts me; it's a mun/ “All, I see, your husband has left you." . “ No, that’s not it I never was mar­ ried!” “Indeed, then you are not in the mar­ ket." Tliis was a slight deviation from the ‘truth, for she was side of me in the de­ pot “ Well, not exactly. I am engaged, but I have an idea of breaking off tho engagement." Heartless wretch, thought I to myself. “ For what reason,’’ I asked. “Because of something that I have heard lately." “ What is it?" I inquired. “ Wo have not had any thunder-storm lately." “ No; but I hear that people after they are married grow to look like each other. What do you think about it?” “ I haven't any money up on it," I re­ plied, “ but yet it may be ao. Tannyeon advances some such idea as that, I believe. But what do you care if your future husband grows to look like you?" “Grow to look like me!" she ex­ claimed. “I wish he would. That is not it at all. I am afrnid that I ahall grow to look like him." “Ah, there's tho rub," said I, as the woman rubbed the lobe of her left ear. “But what if you do?” ** Why, he’s all bent up with rheuma­ tism,’* replied the woman, “ and I am sound in every timber. ” “But rheumatism can be cured," I replied. “More than that, he's baldheaded as a gooee egg, added the woman. “Would not I look pretty without any hair?" “ On the contrary, I think it would rather detract from your charms," I re­ plied. “But this isn’t all—ho hasn't rot* tooth in his head. How would I look without teeth?” “Bad,” I replied, looking through the depot to see if tho train wasn’t com­ ing. • “More than this,” said the woman, '*he's got only on* leg.” “Probably the other is all right,” said T, trying to comfort her a little. the cook’s shanty. “Yes,” said the woman, “but he lost Al wadfl found the door hanging OU Onfl hinge, a portion of the ahanty roof fallen roe eye in the anny." “ Thea you ought to marry him out of in, but this shelter was better than the ^unpathy," said I, “if for nothing ■dow and storm outside.

Two half-' grown girls have recently been arrested for pilfering beads, lockets, and similar articles from girls of smaller size, whom they decoyed in tbeir power and then despoiled. This shows how readily specialties in crime occur in large cities.

How It Wm Celebrated by the People or Noahville and Vicinity. —Bricklaying is in progressing ran.idly upon the new M. E. church, the walla having arisen to the height of eight feet. The out wall is being laid from Grand Rapids white brick, and the edifice promises to be one which every citizen should be proud of. —Claud Potter was riding A. J. liarday's horse last Thursday, and in turn­ ing a corner was thrown to the ground striking across a piece of scantling, cutting a gash about two inches in length in his side. Ho bud a narrow escape from having his back broken: —Last Sunday a gentleman and lady from Hastings were out riding and when on the road near the railroad, just^w eat of this-village the horse be­ came frightened at a passing train and overturned the buggy, throwing the couple out, buF they escaped with slight injuries. —Last Monday about thirty-ti . e rela­ tives of Mr. and Mrs. Fowler surprised them.by coming to celebrate the Fourth of .July, and also Mrs. Fowler’s 53d birthday. They brought their dinner and an eye witness describes it as being the most sumpto’js they ever before partook of. All enjoyed the day huge­ ly and departed with wishes for many happy returns of the occasion. —There is to be competition in the wheat buying in Nashville this fall, as S. 8. Ingerson of Woodland, and Chas. Fowler of Maple Grove,-have made ar­ rangements to buy wheat at the new elevator opposite Mrs. Durkee’s. Nashville is bound to compete with her sister towns in paying the best market prices for farmers produce, and the merchants are bouud to s«-ll so cheap that fanners will spend their money here at home. —The streets and commons in the south part of the village, across Quaker brook, are cursed with a luxurieut growth of Canada thistles, which are now in bloom and will soon, if not im­ mediately cut down, send their seed floating over the adiaccnt lots ’and fields and seeding them so thoroughly with these pests that years of labor will be necessary to eradicate them. Prompt measures should be taken to have these obnoxious weeds destroyed at once. If they are cut off. down in the ground and a strong bnne poured upon the roots, a great many will be: destroyed and this course followed up from time to time will finally remove them entirely. —Nashville maybe a small, unim­ portant, interior town, but she num­ bers many loyal souls and is not want­ ing in patriotism,- consequently on Saturday afternoon when the news reached us that President Garfield was the fell victim of red-handed tssasain it made a profound impression that has never been likened in the history of Nashville. Business men left their stores and places of business and gath­ ered in groups discussing the mournful tragedy or hurried-to the telegraph of­ fice for a confirmation of the sad tidings The national emblemes, draped in modrning were displayed at different points and the Christian church bell tolled. Later news arrived that the President yet lived and oar loyal poo pie’s mourning was turned to prayers for his ultimate recovery. —Last Wednesday afternoon D. C. Griffith turned over his stock of dry goods and groceries to H. M. Lee, Dep­ uty Sheriff, for the benefit of his credi­ tors. Mr. Griffith says the closing of the store was not a forced assignment, but was done at the request of some of his creditors, on account of certain re­ ports that have been circulated in re­ gard to his financial standing. He has the control of this books during the next 60 days for settlement of acoonuta, which fact shows the confidence his creditors have in him of bis honesty and integrity. He claims that there is more than enough goods in stock to pay every dollar of indebtedness, but he has made up his mind to go out of business and the entire stook will be closed out fur what it will bring. The store will be opened to-day and the sale commenced, which will con­ tinue until all is sold, that can be a private tale,’when the remainder will be closed at Metwn. Mr. Griffith is one of our pioneers in basioeea, and his numerous friends dtsrire to see him come ottt of thia matter in good shape.

Where is it T The time has part when this much needed addition to the public enter­ prise of Nashville was promised by those who voted against and opposed its erection several years ago, but ' promised when they would favor thu enterprise and vote for the erection. . An opportunity was given last year i for them to verify their promise, yet 1 they failed to do so. Another year has I passed and the demand for a new ' building has increased until it is now a necessity. ] Michigan is classed in the first rank , of all the States in the Union for the superiority of its school system, and 1 the value and accommodation of its 1 school houses. Cad it be possible that ’ the citizens of Nashville, one of its most thriving and enterprising vil- j ages, are so extremely penurious, that | they will allow part of their children,as ' many as can be accommodated to be | educated in an old shell that is un-| healthy and inconvenient, while the i remainder are allowed to run at large | and grow up illiterate and uncultured, | simply iu consequence of this penuri- I ousness ? We cannot believe that this I is the case, although the actions of ( several prominent citizens in the past have seemed to indicate it. An opportunity will be given Mon­ day night, July 11th, for these citizens to vindicate themselves, and every en­ terprising voter is expected to lie .pres­ ent, exercise hie right of franchise, and use all bis influence in securing the erection of a building that will not on- . ly be adequate to demands of the dist­ rict, but an ornament to the place. Remember the time, next Monday night and show your., interest in the rising generation both by your pres­ ence at the school meeting, and a bal­ lot in favor of a new Union school building. JOHNSTOWN. The wooden wedding of Mr, and Mrs Norris, was celebrated last Saturday, by their being surprised by their rela­ tives coming upon them while nt work, Mr. Norris in the field plowing -orn, and Mrs. Norris, doing her Satur­ day’s work.

The wound is begin­ ning to discharge. g- Sinee the assassination of Lincoln there has been nothing so much like war times as Saturday, July 2, 1881. The Czar has succeeded in maintain­ ing absolute, monarchy; but he is afraid to come out and see how it is The first poetic "fragment’’commen­ ced in these words; “I sipped the the nectar of her lips. I sipped and hovered o’er her.” Her father’s hoof flashed on the scene. I’m wiser now and sorer.” Music and beer are .flowing freely in Chicago, where the Saengerfcst of the Saengerbund is now going on. Stal­ wart brass bands earn their' wages with contentious energy in makiug the city melodious, aud the com bioed volume of voices and instruments may be imagined. Thomas Myers, a negro, living at Ran to wins, S. C.. conceived that it was bis duty to offer up a human sacrifice to God. Nobody could reason tlie idea out of bis held, though on other sub­ jects be was rational. He chose bis son, aged 13. as the victim. The boy followed him into the woods unsuspect­ ingly, when ordered to do so, and kill­ ed by a sboL Myers glories in the deed, and believes that it makes his salvation sure. The latest1ill news from Russia is that there is famine in various depart­ ment of the empire. The condition of the population in these districts is said to he reached in the extreme. At the same time typhus is reported to be rag­ ing in a deadly form among tho garri­ sons of.Uralsk and Kalmikown, in con­ sequence of the bad food supplied to to the troops. Tainted fish and, meat are said to have been furnished by con­ tractors. A San Francisco undertaker made a contract to bury the city’s paoper dead for sixty cents each. As that price would not begin to cover the coat of the regulation coflin and the digging of a grave, much curiosity arose us to the expected source of profit. The matter is now clear. He advertises for rela­ tives and friends of every pauper who dies, and keeps the remains aa long as possible for recognition. In half the cases somebody comes forward to pay well for a burial elsewhere than in the Potter’s Field. Heat, hail, gales, thunder storms, and terrible tornadoes have made havoc noitb. south, east, and west dur­ ing the past three days. Superstitious people, who connect the appearance of a comet with, physical disasters, must have been confirmed in their terror when they saw trees uprooted and and houses levelled by these cyclones, churches lifted from their foundation and shattered into splinters, bams set blazing, and cattle killed by the terri­ fic and incessant lightning, hail scourgi ng whole villages, anti laying waste the liarvests for miles, and reservoirs bursting under tlie sudden deluge of rain. A Toronto baby, left by itself in a perambulator while asleep, fell out in such a way that n strap suspended it by the neck, and it wasdead when discov­ ered. A Sacramento baby's hands were tied to prevent it from scratching its head, which was affected with salt­ rheum, and ,while thus bound it fell with its face iu a basin of water, which drownded it. Much more horrible was the fate of the Philadelphia baby, who was left to sleep in a room infested by rats. The mother was careful to spread a netting over the little one as a pro­ tection against flies, but was Dot mind­ ful of the ravenous vermin. When she returned, the infant had ceased to struggle against the rats, its face was gnawed away, and death Ensued imnedlately. The comet now swinging around the circle is not only one of the firatrdaas travellers of its kind, but will enjoy the honor of a closer study than most of its predecessors have had, and hun­ dreds of astronomers have now drawn a bead on it. Meanwhile the rl*ln»*t>rw for the credit of its first discovery are becoming numerous. Soldiers, sailors, policeman, brakemen, and other people whose duties lead them to tramp about at night, are tolling stories of when they saw it; but it is strange that they did not mention their discoveries at once. The small reward of two hun­ dred, which an eathuiast uffera for each comet bagged this jetr, has also stimulated this variety of claims. Per­ haps it would be well to withdraw this prize, as some people who keep too late hours already may justify their conduct on the pretence that they are hard at work bcurtujg comets for money. „ BALTIMORE. The attempt to amsainato PraaMcat Garfield is a rude shock to toe belief that this country, with it* gererous liberty and great personal liberty, can­ not breed assassiD*. Our rulers come and go just aa other men do, and the President moves about as a private citizen, unattended by escort or mark­ ed indication of power. The idea of a military escort for the chief rukr df the nation is a hateful one to us as a people, for we are un­ able to recognise, in the nature of things, any necessity for it. The cal­ ami ty that hasIcome, in a tiroe of peace, upon the nation’s’Chicf, will need to be closely scanned before proper judgement can be passed upon it. It may have beer if freak of ft crazy man. It is impossible to believe that it was deliberately planned and executed by men of Nihilistic belief, who hold it in the nature of religious duty to strike down representatives of political aud civil authority, whether as President in the United States or Czar in Russia. A meaner husband than a young phyricinn of Chicago, as shown by tes­ timony in court, it would lie hard to find. He had a wealthy father, but dissipation had cut him off* from money in that quarter, and his profes­ sional practice amounted to nothing. He married a girl who earned •*2’> a week iu ft millinery store, and allowed her to support him. When ever she was ill, he sent her to her mother’s home in Michigan, and his letters dur­ ing these periods were curious. He qdvised his "precious darling" to come back aa soon as possible and demand an increase of pay from her employe r; he urged her to try to get a. railroad pass, so ns to avoid ex peuse; he though t it hard that his "own precious wifey” couldn’t re-engage at a higher salary, adding, "I do not hope for wealth, but God knows I do tliink wo deserve a liv­ ing;” he assured her that her "longing and loving husband,” had pawned his overcoat, and was in u great hurry to see her. She worked on patiently, when able, while he made no advance in his profession. At length his father died, and came into his inheritance. He immediately deserted his wife, got a fraudulent divorce, and married a Life in Kentucky is illustrated, it is to be hoped, at its worst, by the case of Clif Cockerell, a young bully of the Grassy Creek region. He began ft year and u imlf ago by coolly and deliber ntely murdering Carr, an inoffensive man, who bad angered him by asking him not to talk slightingly about a girl. His next victim was Brown, whom he killed for being instrumental in bringthe first crime to light. The authoritiesseem by this time to have been « little aroused, though not enough to make them undertake ft vigorous pros­ ecution of Clif, who hid in tlie woods by day. and by night rode about on a horse belonging to Greer. The horse could dot stand this extra work, and Greer told Clifs father so. The next night Clif called Greer out of his house aud informed him that he was to die immediately. Greer begged for mercy which he didn’t expect to get, but the supplication rnonientaniv delayed mat tore, and enabled him to kill Clif by a quick shot, instead of being killed. Public opinion said this was fortunate and right ; but the dead murderer’s father. Doc. Cockerell, did not think so. He announced that be meant to kill Greer. The officials did nothing to protect Greer, who for six months never went out of his house ; and when he did venture into into his cornfield, among his hands, Doc. shot him from behind n bush where he was hiding. The account says that Doc will probablv lie caught and punished—not law­ fully, however, but by lynchers. The London England Post says: No event has ao profoundly moved the English nation for many years, not ex­ cepting tbe assassination of the Czar, as the attempt upon the life of Presi­ dent Garfield. VV'e venture to say that not only in England but whereever the English language is spoken the and tid­ ings have fallen with all the force of a domestic calamity. We hope Garfield inay be spared to discharge the duties of nis proud office, but we cannot ban­ ish the feelings awakened by the grav­ est apprehensions. Tlie crime was ap­ parently motiveless and purposeless. Garfield has done nothing to provoke that political animosity which so, fre­ quently furnishes excuse for regicide. We fail to see how the murder of a President can serve the ends of any political party. There seems no doubt the assassin is insane. R will be satis­ factory to know the crime m not the outcome of Nihilism. We may be permitted to hope with Garfield’s ex­ cellent constitution that be will stead­ ily recover. It 1h inexpressibly sad, in­ deed. to think that by the act of a mis­ erable idiot the President of a mighty Republic and the nominal ruler of mil­ lions of most intelligent and industri­ ous people should be laid at death’/ door.

OLD CHI B’S EXPLOITS. DIBD. •TMtaff election as Governor of Ohio on the Democratic ticket, hit opponent on tho Whig aide being the famous Thomas Corwin, who was successful in the can­ vass, and became Governor, though Sluuinon waa again chosen at the bienniel election in 1842. During the can­ vass of 1840, Mr. Corwin was announced to speak at St. Clairaville, where Gov. Shannon resided. Possibly there was to be a joint discussion between the two candidates—at any rate the meeting waa looked forward to with absorbing inter­ est, and Mrs. Shannon, who wa* visiting friends in this city, took the morning stage to go out home on the day of the occurrence. There were in the stage quite a number of St Clainrville ladies, and a man, apparently a very dark mu­ latto, who seemed to be of ft retiring disposition, and occupied u corner u» remote from his fellow-passengers as passible. Arrived at a watering station, near the foot of ■ the " Big Hill,*' Mrs. Shannon, who was accompanied by a babe in arms, desired to procure some milk for the child, and requested the dark man in tlie comer to bold the infant for her. Upon returning with the milk, having fed the baby, and tlie stage being again in motion, the babe waa once wore con­ signed to tlie care of the “ mulatto, ” and the ladies proceeded to discuss the great event of the day. When the stage arrived at the hotel at St Clairsville, the nurse deferentially informed Mrs. 8. that he was st the end of hia journey, and transferred liia charge to her care, not, however, until she had tendered him a quarter in pay­ ment of hia services, which was, much to her surprise, declined with much dig­ nity, though very politely, withal. Ths sequel transpired in the after­ noon. What was Mm. Shannon’s sur­ prise, upon reaching the grove in which the meeting was to be held, to see her mulatto nurse of the morning occupying a seat of honor upon the platform ; sur­ prise scarcely increased when the dark gentleman arose and was introduced by a prominent local politician as "Thomas Corwin, the next Governor of Ohio.” The great orator waa introduced to the wife of his opponent later in tho day, and enjoyed her embarrassment over the affair hugely, but Mrs. Shannon never Suite recovered from tho mortification le felt when she discovered what a mistake she had made. Young Man, Don’t B® Helped. Dr. Prime has very little sympathy to waste npon young men who get their education by forced loans from relatives.

The strength of women lies in their heart. It snows itself in their strong love and instinctive perception of right and wrong. Intellectual courage is rare­ ly one of their virtues. As a rule, they are inclined to be restless and excitable, allowing their judgments and actions to be swayed by quick emotion of all kinds, bat, above all, it is in their hopefulness ■nd their endurance that they find their chief power. Who is the last person to S' b up hope inthe case of a member of family who has apparently gone altogether to the bad ? What mother or sister with deep and ardent love for such' will ever cease to cherish hope or enduro suffering on their account? The pa­ tience of women is proverbial, and their whole lives are bound up in their affec­ tions. Few people will deny that love in one form or another makes up the beauty of life to woman. It enters into all she does. Any work outside her im­ mediate circle is undertaken most often from pure desire to help some one else to know something ot the mysterious happiness of love.—Mrs. Salisbury, in the Nineteenth Century. • The Montenegrin woman takes an equal share of labor with the men at field-work, and she does all the carrying.

I once had the aa a new dish to her bill of fare. These are the women who prefer to do their own work rather than tell any one else how to do H, or to be interrupted in the pursuance of their usual plan of work. If it is true that woman has a natural for* her to cultivate it Conservatism does not need to be cultivated. One of the l>ad results from it is that she de­ prives herself of much help which she might otherwise have. It prevents that intelligent and sympathetic observation of other people's work which would be of benefit to her in her own. Of course, it is just as bad to be extremely radical as to cling too closely to the old ways of thinking and doing. Indeed, it may often seem to be worse. But any ten­ dency which makes one unwilling to better her condition, and which induces her to settle down upon her own meth­ ods aa the only ones worth knowing anything about,’is not a tendency to be developed and strengthened; it may not infrequently be the cause of the lack of charity which sometimes characterizes the judgments passed upon others of their sex by some excellent women. Human Hair from China. Among recent imjxirtatiotu by a New York house dealing in Asiatic goods were ten cases of human hair from China, weighing in aU 1,330 pounds. Chinese hair is dark and coarae, and is worth from 50 to 65 cents a pound.

Cut also the wings off about tho second joint and the legs just above the first joint; the third joint is the one nearest the body. Split the akin from the end of the neck to the rump; use a small sharp-pointed knife ; commence with the knife between the bpnes and flesh on one side till you come to the third joints of the wings and legs. By twisting and raising both wing and leg, but one at a time, you easily crack the joint, and then separate it from the body .with the knife, continuing to run the knife between the bones and tlie flesh on the same side till you come to the breast-bone. Do the same on the other side. Pull out the cron and cut tff the rump from the body, out with­ out touching the akin, as the rump must come off with tlie skin and flesh. Then, by taking hold of the bird by the neck with the left hand and pulling the skin gently down with the nght you partly uncover the breast-bone, "fhen again run the knife between the flesh and the bone on both sides until you come near­ ly to tlie edge or end of the bone. Then lay the bird on its back, having some­ body to take hold of it by the neck, hav­ ing the breast of tho bird toward you. All along tha edge ot the breast-bone there is no flesh between the bone and skin. Take hold of the skin of the neck with your left hand, pulling gently downward, and with the knife detach the skin carefully from tlie bone, the carcass coming off whole. Place the bird on the table, the inside up; pull out the bones of the wings and legs, scraping tlie flesh all around,' so as to leave it attached to the rest. Pull or scrape off all tlie tendons of the legs; push the legs and wings inside the bird; see that the ruxap is clean and out off the ring under it if necessary.

In a communication to the §ocietie de Geographic at Paris Mr. Girard de­ scribed the changes which the terri­ tory of Holland has undergone withiu the historical period, chiefly through calamitous floods. For a while water had the mastery; but tlie inhabitant*, with untiring patience and resolution, drove back the ocean and reconquered the land. The dimensions of some of their barrier banks are surprising. One on the island of Walcheren is 3,800 me­ tres long, and mare than seven metres uImjvc tlie highest tides. Since tho be­ ginning of the sixteenth century more than 8U0.000 acres have been reclaimed, and the work of' reclamation is still car- । ried on at tho rate of about eight acres 1 a dav. Since 1850 tho Lake of Haarh m lias been converted into a region of farms and villages, and the pumping out of tho Zuyder Zee will surpass in mag­ nitude all the endeavors yet made to compel the ocean to restore the land so remorselessly ingulfed centuries ago. The device of the province of Zeeland (Luctor cl emerffo) will then acquire a new significance. To this we add that in digging the great canal which makes a deep-water communication between Amsterdam and the sea more than 25,000,000 cubic yards of earth and sand had been taken out and used to heighten the land near the coast. The width of the canal at tho Ixjttom is eighty-eight feet seven inches —nearly seventeen feet more than the Suez; and in damming out the waters of adjacent lakes more than 13,000 acres of land were reclaimed, which “ effected a considerable change in the physical feat­ ures of the country."

A fat white doe, given to Lord Alington some years sgo by the Queen, strides about in the weu-littered stall; and just by the hutches, in which tho long-furred white rabbits frisk and play about like Cowper’s tame hares, is a model house containing white rats and mice, a »nwent from tho Prince of Wales.

A dark, glowing sky is windy, but a light, bright-idue sky indicates fine weather. When, the upper clouds move in a di­ rection different from that of the lower clouds, or that of the wind, they fore­ tell a change of wind. . When tho outlines of cumulus clouds are sharp, it indicates a dry atmosphere, and, therefore, prerages fine weather. The dimness of the stars and other heavenly bodies is one of tho surest signs of very rainy weather. In winter, rain with a west wind and rising barometer turns to snow; snow withan east wind .and a falling barom­ eter to rain. Rain comes, as a general rule, from the west aide ; so that a dear sunset is a proof that there is no.rain coming from that qurter for a time. Hence tliis is a sign for fair weather. THE BOERS. Clalnta JnriadletiOM. The history of the Boers is interest­ ing. It tells Of triumph over obstacles almost insurmountable, and ot a simple religious faith founded on an unostenta­ tious Bflile. About 200 years ago four ships sailed from Holland, carrying to Gape Colony, the most southern point in Africa, on ths Mediterraneau, then settled by Dutch, certahi French Huguenots, ex­ iled by the revocation of the edict of Nantua. Those vessels contained about 160 men, women and children. Among th im were names which had figured conspicuously in France. These people took to the colony no ambitious designs, and within' fifty years the French lan­ guage had died awuyf the second aud third generations had intermarried with the Dutch, and the all-conquering mother tongue had had ita triumph. The descendants of these people became stoutly hung over thorn, and, though not innately belligerent, yet when aroused they fought with a determination that hurled death and destruction into thu ranks of the enemy. In tho years 1835-6 there began a movement among the inhabitants of the Cape Colony that has produced great lesults. It was tha emigration of a large number of Dutch fanners over the then recognized boundary of British domin­ ion into that vast tract of land spreading north from the Orange river into regions unexplored. With lumbering wagons they marched toward their land of Canaan. Two years passed and found them still moving. . Hardships had reduced tha number of people and cattle, but the attack of lions and fierce tribes did not for a moment waver tho determination of the emigrants. On they* moved, ever buoyed by the hope of reward. Finally, from the crest of a hill, they raw stretched out before them the beautiful land, their agricultural goal. On the hill top the snows of winter lay, tad the chill blast swept with fierce breath, but below in the valley birds sang, green leaves waved and green grass carpeted the soil. ' Imagine that band ol suffer­ ing people that had traveled for years in search of a home. See them stand prayers for the bounteous kindness of Him in whom they hud never failed to trust But the emigrants ware not to obtain this fair land without a desperate straggle. Their leader, the Iwgsa m a partnarahip, in the of tho civil war, between Bmnuci An­ drews aqd'John Rockefeller in Clert^bud. Rockefeller liad been a book-keep­ in some interior town in Ohio, aud -afterward made a few thousand dollars by keeping a flour atoro in Cleve­ land. AndrewH hud been a day laborer in reflnoriee, aud bo poor that his wife took in sewing. He found a way of w>fining by which more kerosene could be got oat of a barrel of petroleum than by ajrjr other method, and set up for him­ self a ten-barrel still in Cleveland, by which he cleared 8500 in aix month*. Andrews’ still and Rockefeller's savings have grown into the Standard Oil Com­ pany. It has a capital, nominally 83.­ 500,000, but really much more, on which it divides among ita stockholders evenr Er millions of dollars of profits, ft refineries at Cleveland, Baltimore and New York. Its own acid works, glue factories, hardware stores and barrel shops supply it with all the accessories it needs in ita business. It has bought land at Indianapolis on which to erect thu largest barrel factory in tho country. It has drawp'ita check for 81,000,000 to suppress a^nval. It buys 30,000 to 40,(k>0 barrels of crude oil a day, at a price fixed by itself, and makes special con­ tract i witti tho railroads for tlie transpor­ tation of <13,000,000 to 14,000,000 bomb of oil a yeii^. The four quarters ot the globe are partitioned among the memix^rs oLthe-Standard combinations. One has the control of tho China trade; an­ other that of some country of Europe; another that pf tho United Btates. In New York you cannotbuy oil for East Indian export from tho’ house tliat has been given the. European trade; recipro­ cally, the East Indian house is not al­ lowed to sell for export to Europe. The Standard produces only ono fiftieth or sixtieth of our petroleum, but dictates tho prioesof all, and refines nine-tenths. Cir­ culars are issued at intervals by which tl« price of oil is fixed for all cities of the oountry, except New York, where a little competition survives. Such is the indif­ ference of the Standard Oil Company to railroad charges tliat the price is made the same for pointe so far iipiurt os Terre Haute, Chicago and Ktokuk. There is not to-day a merchant in Chicago, or in any other city in the New England, Western or Southern States, dealing in kerosene, whose prices are not fixed for him by tlie Standard. In all cases these prices are graded so that a mer­ chant in ono city cannot export to anoth­ er. Chicago, Cincinnati or Cleveland is not allowed to supply the tributary towns. That is done by tho Standard itself, which runs oil in ita own tank cars to all the principal points of distri­ bution. This ooqxiration has driven into bankruptcy, or out of business, or into union with itaulf, all the petroleum refineries in tlie country, except five in New York, and a few’ of little conse­ quence in Western Pennsylvania. No­ body knows how many millions Rocke­ feller is worth. Current gossip among his business acquaintances at Cleveland put his income, last year, at a figure second only, if second at all, to that of Vanderbilt. His partner, Samuel An­ drews, the poor English day laborer, re­ tired years ago with millions. Just who the Standard Oil Company are, exactly what their capital is, and what are their rotations to the railroads, nobody knows except in part Their officers refused to'testify before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, the late New York rail­ road investigating committee, and a 'PL. -V~_L when the air grows thick by degrees, and the sun, moon and stars sliine dim­ mer and dimmer, then it is likely to rain sign of min ; after much wet. of fair weather. If tho rainbow breaks up all at once, there will follow severe and un­ settled weather. The appearance ot two or three rainbows indicates fair weather tar the present, but nettled aud heavy rains in two or three days' time. Heavy thunder-storms, coming ' up with an cast wind, while the barometer is falling, do not cool tho air ; wo ray it is still sultry, and there will bo another storm. The air does not grow cooler till a thunder-storm cornea up from tho west, and the barometer begins to rise. Snow con never fall when thu temper­ ature is very low, because it arises from tha contact of two current* of different temjicratures. When snow does fall when the cold is intense, os sometimes happens, it takes the form of small spikes of ice, which originate in a stratum of clouds belonging to a warmer current ly___ ._____ i__ ... If, during a calm,, the smoke from chimneys does not ascend readily, or straight upward, an unfavorable change is probable, with rain, simply because the air has lost density, and is unable to bear up the smoko so readily as when drier and closer. ‘ If tho wind shifts from south to north through the west, tho barometer rises and the thermometer falls; thereupon, in winter there will be heavy falls of snow, in spring sleet showers, and in sum­ mer thunder-storms, after which the air l>ecomea much cooler._____ A Baseless Precaution.

As only four of the officers have yet been elected, we cannot give the list this week Right here we feel constrained to say a few words in relation to to this order. The Order of Knights of Pythias is purely an American institution, having been founded by Hon. Justus II. Rath­ bone at Washington, D. C., on the 19th of January, 1864. Though but seven­ teen years old it lias assumed propor­ tions that command the respect and admiration of the world. No other in­ stitution ever introduced into this or any other country has made the pro­ gress in the same length of time it has. The order is founded on the story of Damon nnd Pythias, the work is pre­ eminently of a chivalric aud instructive character, and endeavors to inculcate the worth and beauty of true Friend­ ship. Below we give the declaration of principles as adopted by the Supreme Lodge in 1877: Recognizing the universality of human brotherhood, its organization I* designed to embrace the World within it* Ju.iadictlon— Intended Bolely and only to disseminate the great principle* of Friendship, Charity and Benevolence, nothing of a sectarian or political character is permitted within its portal*.

The first use of Lake Superior ironore in a blast-furnace was in 1858, by David and John Agnew, at Sharpsville, Mercer county, Pa. Cast-steel was made in the American colonies at an early day. In 1805 there were two steel-furnaces in Pennsylvania, producing 150 tons of steel annually. Bessemer steel was first made in tlie United States at Wyandotte, Mich., in the autumn of 1864. The first Bessemer steel rails rolled in this country were rolled at the North Chicago rolling-mill on the 24th of May, 1865, from hammered blooms made at tlie Wyandotte rolling-mill from ingots of steel made at the experimental steel­ works at Wyandotte. The first irou rails of any kind made in this country were cast by tlie Lehigh Navigation Company, at their foundry in the upper end of Mauch Chunk, Pa., in 1826. A few flat rails were rolled prior to 1842, but such rails were only bar iron. The T1 manufacture of heavy “v was commenced at the ML wrought “ rails Auvncro mllintr Savage rolling-mill, in Allegheny county, Md., in 1844. Tlie * first iron vessel built in the United States was launched at Pitteburgh in 1839. It was named the Vai­ ley Forge. For general navigation pur­ poeea it was completely aucceiwlul. Other iron vessels were built ut Pitts­ burgh within the next decade, among them an iron schooner far ocean service, and an iron steamer, tlie Michigan, for service on the lake—both built for the Government about 1842.

A Jury of One, of tho anecdote of a case of the kind in a Justice’s court A jury hud been de­ manded, but there was difficulty about getting a jury together. Ono juryman Dad appeared, and it was finally agreed by the court that they would t-y the case by a jury of one. Accordingly the case wm tried, and tho jury (<?f one) retired to consult of their verdict under the charge of an officer. After waiting aa hour or two the jury were called into court to see if they had agreed on their verdict, and the foreman informed the court that they had not agreed, and that there were no prospect of their agreeing. And the court sent tho jury out again waited two or three hours longer for tlie result, when they were again called into court, and they informed his Honor that they had not agreed, and. there was no prospect of any agreement. The hour being late tho jury was then discharged without a verdict Thia may have been a farce, but, if it was, it was no more so than are one-half of our jury trials.— Cor. Albany Law Journal. Close Driving. A gentleman wanted to hire a coach­ man, a skillful driver, who could man­ age a pair of spirited horses. At tlie hour he appointed four men camo to aj>ply for tlie place. Turning to the first one, he said, "How near can you drive to a precipice and not go over ?*’ "Oh !” answered the man, "I con go within three feet of it” Tbe second man said, “Bure, and I can go within two feet of the bonk.” But whilst ho was sjieaking a strong man, with brawny arm, lifted his head, and said: "Indeed, I have been six inches from the very edge, and drove away safe.” The gentleman turned to the only man who had not yet spoken, a small, mild-looking person, whom the others thought would never be in their way. To him he said. "I suppose you can go no nearer than that?” "No, sir!” he replied, with determination, "it is my rule to keep m far from danger as possible.” "You are tbe man for me,” •aid the gentleman; *T do not wish to An Undergraduate’s Excuse.

France ha* no peerage officially recog­ nized, or baronetage, while the confer­ ring of knighthood is a ceremony unin­ telligible to even educated Frenchmen. Several other fashions in which the British sovereign delights to honor hex lieges by making them " Privy Council­ lors,’’ or of her "counsel learned in tho law,” are wholly unknown to her neigh­ bor*. The "cross,”, which is a star of five rays, and the various other gradee of the "Legion of Honor," established bv Napoleon in 1802, are the only visi­ ble bonora with which France reworibi her illustrious sons. Any citizen can obtain them ; none can bequeath them, In tho hurt days of the Second Empire the Legion numbered 60,000. Within a few months of the proclamation of the third Republic the National Assembly 1 imposed restrictions on tho creation of ' new members. By tho principal clause it was enacted that only one member should be created for every two vacan- Goethe’s Heartlessuess. Goethe traded in the loves of women —women whom he bad attached to him by his powers of fascination. " When he had no woman in his heart,” says his latest biographer, “ ho was like a dis­ secting surgeon without a subject. Ho said of Balzac, that each of his best nov­ ela seemed dug out of a suffering wom­ an’s heart Balzac might have returned the compliment" In reference to his early fondness for natural history, Goethe says, “ I remember that, when a child I pulled flowers to pieces to see how the petals were inserted into the calyx, or even plucked birds to observe how the feathers were inserted in the wings." Bettina remarked to Lxjrd Houghton that he treated women in much the name fashion. Triumphant Argument of the Wheels Rufus Choate once made an argument of three days to convince a jury that the car-wheel sold by tho defendant wm radically, intrinsically, and indubitably different from that patented by tho plaintiff. Webster arose to answer, and tho jurors rustled uneasily in their seats, settling themselves for'another three days. But ho simply tilted tho two models ujton tho table in the jurors' sight, fixed his great magnetic eyes upon the entire twelve at once, and said : ” Gentlemen of the jury, there are tlie wheels ; look at ’em.” Verdict for the plaintiff on the spot. How to Prevent Horses Slipping. The methods adopted in Germany for preventing the slipping and falling of noraes on the public roads is aa unique oh it is simple. Tlie smith, when finish­ ing the shoe, punches a holo in two ends; as soon os the shoe is made he taps in a screw thread and screws into tho oboes, when on the horse’s foot, a sharp-pointed stud an inch in length. With shoes thus fitted the horse can travel securely over the worst possible roads. When the horse comes to the stable the pointed stud is unscrewed and a button screwed in. No damage cun then happen the horse, and the screw holes ore thus pre­ vented from filling up. Tho Difference. “The difference," said Augustus Millwliiffies, sauntering into tho library tho other day—"tho difference between tho works of Captain Cook and the works of Beaumont nnd Fletcher is, I presume, that the former are by a tar and the lat­ ter by-tu-men." Before he could cackle, he wm seized by the nape of the neck and thrust oat of the building by nu enraged professor, who said to him, as ho struck the ground, “Do you know why you arc like Noah’s Ark?” "No," said the bewildered Augustus. "Well, it’s iiecause you’re pitched without," said the professor, m De shut the door. Brutal Conduct of a Husbaad.

So it was not to be wondered at that they wished Johnny might get caught at some of his mis­ chief-making. One day ho was going by old Widow Larrabee’s.

I gazed at it until- it disappeared from view. Fcontinued fishing but was so nervous that it was with great difficul­ ty I managed to keep my seat in the boat, that flail I saw had captivated me; and set my brain a-whirling. I had never seen anything like it before, and I made up my my mind fliat I wanted that fish and that I would catch it or drown myself in the pellucid waters of Duck Lake, though I was aware that it would require a great deal of patience and skill, and that* it might take weeks and perhaps months to accomplish the job, nevertheless, 1 had n\ade up my mind to angle for it, and no power on earth could have changed me. When I reached shore that evening I told my friends almut the wonderful fish I bail seen while on the lake, and also told them that I was going to catch it or drown. They laughed-at me, and, said that I would get left. They said thatthe same fish had been seen now and then for 17 years, and that many dif­ ferent men, and some of them good fishermen too, had angled for that fishonly to get disappointed, end my friends airadvised me to giyeup the difficult task. They told me that it was useless to try,—that fish would not bite. I hail no inclination to back out then and 1 told them that it was my own option, and that I paddled my own canoe, and that I was going to com­ mence the task, and felt confident that I would succeed fnr beyond all my pre­ decessors. They then called me obsti­ nate and fastidious, though thev hoped that my efforts would bo crowned with grand success. Well the following morning I commenced operations. I worked every day, and a good many nights for 4 weeks, tried all kinds of bait that I could think of, but failed to find anything that was enticing enough until the 4th of July, 1881, when I hap­ pened to take the right course and captured my game. I then placed it carefully in the- buggy and started for pa’s, perfectly satisfied.” By this time time I had begun to get excited about the fish and asked if it did really w« igh 100 pounds. "Yes” says life, “it weighs 115 pounds.” My! it must be a monster, I exclaimed. How did you manage to keep it while you was on the road, did you have it packed in ice, or salted down ! What kind of a fish is it any way pickerel or muscoloqngc ? "Neither one.” he answered "but come into the house and I will show you, and let you judge for yourself.” I knew just enough to pigeon toe into the house, thinking all the while that m I was one of Gib’s best friends, and as he was a very generous hearted fellow, that he would surely give me a me«s or two of that big fish, and I thought if he failed to do this, Lwould buy ten or twelve pounds, but imagine my feelings when I entered the house, and saw sitting on the sofa, a handsome young lady, and heard Gib say. "this is my 115 pound fish, and also my wife.” I staggered back, bumped my head against the wall and fainted away. When I came to, I only tarried long enough to learn that the bride’s name was Miss May Zebell, that is, before she bit. the hook and was caught.

According to tho Hotel MaiL every lady of station in Austria knows how to cook. They do not learn tho art at regular cooking clubs or at home, but they go to the house of a Prince or rich : banker where there is a famous chef. [ and learn from him.

Tho ' law allows her to abandon her huaband’H house for just cause, and will proton her in ao doing. She can not be oom- | pelled to labor for tho anpport of her husband. On **>6 con­ trary, he is compelled to support her, and it is a penal offense to insult or illtreat her. On an accusation of infidelity her oath is accepted as equally good with bis, and collateral proof must be obtained. Should he not furnish her with funds ahe is authorized to borrow in his name, and even -to sell his prop­ erty. After marriage she has the u Invo­ lute control of her own property, which he can not touch. ■ In 1846, two sisters finished their course of study in a Western school. The youngest, whom wo shall here call Sarah, regarded herself as an altogether exceptional woman, and had brought her school-fellows to think the same. The truth was, she had an active brain, a retentive memory, au indomitable will, and great ambition. She declared tho ordinary life of women afforded no acopo for her powers. She pursued her studies on leaving school, totally neglected al' social and domestic duties, went through a medical course, and was finally admitted to prac­ tice in an Eastern city. At that time, such a career involved hard fighting on her part against the press, public opin­ ion, the medical faculty, the very teach­ ers who instructed her. She was quite ready to fight Her tongue was sharp, her pen facile, her wit bitter and coarse. Such a contest would be justified if her motive had been a high one, as it is with many women who leave tho beaten track. But in her case, she was urged on neither by a desire to help suffering humanity, to elevate her sex nor even to develop a defined talent in herself. She simply coveted notoriety. When she had gained her profession, she was in r. position to income a real helper. in the world, an active, benefi­ cent power. But she settled down into a hard, sarcastic, selfish woman, no bet­ ter a doctor than the hundreds of ybung M. D. s about her, and with a narrower influence tluin most of tho wives and mothers of whom she alwava epoke with pitying contempt. She died a year ago, “tired out,”M she said, “with living,” and with bat one or two friends to follow her to the grave. Her elder sister was a dull girl, eared little for books, had no ambition, and no especial talent (Sarah used secretly to wonder why the world was filled with such commonplace nonentities, to lead “ lives of nothing, nothing worth"). But ahe had an affectionate heart, piety, oommon sense, fine tact, and, above all, ab- of half a dozen children.

In­ deed it would be a wonder if it failed to appear. There is no cause for alarm ifpeopU will only keen themselves and their surroundings clean. Asiatic cholera is the child ot filth. There is hardly any uiffercnce in the looks of the twin Bowsers of Janesville, Wis, but one is a drunken loafer while the other is an exemplary Christian. ' The loafer kissed a woman unbidden in the street, and her husband by mistake ‘ knocked the Christian down. Her very muscular brother, when the mistake was explained, went out with the avow­ ed purpose of righting tho matter by ’ whipping the real offender tremendous­ ly; but he met tiie Christian, refused to believe his protestations that a second blunder was being made, and thrashed him so that ho almost died. * The Hamburg police authorities dis cover that nearly seventy-five thousand German emigrants passed through that city during the firrt half of this year for America, and that adding the leakage through other porta, the em­ pire will probably Jose, for tlie year, about a quarter of a million subjects. The glories of German nationality, then, are such that millions of people escape from it as fast as possible. Blood and iron are well in their way, but not when the blood is drawn from the veins of the people on the battlefields of statecraft, and when the iron is driv­ en into th*ir souls. Austria is pushing two lines of rad­ way, one from Vienna to 8alonica,the other from Vienna to Constantinople. These roads were provided for in the Treaty of Berlin. Austria has to nego­ tiate with Romalia AndTurkey for these lines. The country through which they will pass is also rough and difficult. These may delay, but cannot prevent their completion. Austria is promot­ ing these railways, not for .the present but for the future. She means to hold in tier hand the lines of communication between Vienna and the Bosphorus and JEgean for strategic and political as well as for financial reasons. Of course the completion of these roads is most distasteful to Russia, but it is certain that Austria wilt have them. It is cer­ tain that they will have a most impor­ tant future bearing upon the Eastern question. Open Letters. Brothers Orwick of Woodland and Holler of Nashville, are haring a little newspaper controversy in which Bro. Holler has decidedly the best of it. It seems Holler loaned a tent to the Woodland hotel keeper which was nsde for dancing conveniences. Orwick wrote a letter to the NashviHo News in which he assumed that Holler knew for what purpose the tent was to be used, and thereupon read Bro. Holler a lecture that waa somewhat curt. Bro. Holler answered in last week’s News effectually annihilating the Rev. Mr. Orwick and giving him a richly deser­ ved leaon. If the latter named indi vidual imagines he has been ordained as the coDsience keeper of all man­ kind he will find plenty ot business outside his pastorate. His open letter to Elder Holier an upright, honorable citizen and Christian gentleman, was an open result. Thu mere circum­ stance tliat a man may be the pastor of the M. E. church in Woodland, is no excuse for publicly maligning any one and certainly none when there is ab­ solutely no cause. Preachers have no more nght to send "open letters” than other persons. If they desire to rebuke siu in permins outside of their own flock, it should be done in a manner that will carry with it the influence of the Holy Spirit and not rouse the old Adam tliat always makes a bad matter worse.—Baaaer. On Sunday morning a disastrous fire took place at Charlotte, ar.d there are suspicions of ita haring beedi lighted by an incendiary. The property burn­ ed waa the flouring milt owned by David G.

Egbert loses about $3,000, and several fanners lose grain stored in the mill. Chas. Edgington, about 16 orl7 years of age, of Onion Corners, is accused by Peter Casey of an attempted outrage upon the person ot his liltle girl,Thurs­ day afternoon, last. Casey’s story ia that Edgington came to bis place after a pail of water, enticed the girl behind the currant bushes and assaulted her. The screams of tlie child brought its mother to toe rescue, when the boy ran for home. Casey came homo about that time and bearing his wife’s story, went to Edgington’s house and severely stabbed tlie boy. John Edg­ ington, the boy’s father, then came to this city and swore out a warrant for ^Warrcst of Casey for assaulting the boy. Casey was arrested and plead guilty, but afterwards changed his plea to not guilty, whereupon tho case was adjourned to Saturday* an<I as no one put in an appearance, the case was dismissed, tbe parties probably have scull'd the matter.

(KMBn* FOR THE LADUE. ‘JaSraSSJSk; j ' I I Why are girls so injudicious in their toleration of dissipated young men? It is very often the cate that a thorough­ ly good girl will deliberately marry a man who makes no secret of his bad habits. What can she expect but misery to ensue ? A life partnendiip should not be entered into without at least aa much caution as men display in making busi­ ness dkmbinatians for limited periods. No man selects his business partner from among men who drink much liquor or have other bad hab'M. As for mere manners and the ability to make one’s self agreeable, they have not of them­ selves influence enough among men to secure a dollar’s worth of credit or to justify any one in believing their posses­ sor on oath. A girl who is not old enough or shrewd enough to have learned what are the standards by which men are tested would be far surer of a happy life if she were to let her parents select a husband in the prosiest manner imaginable, than if she were to make her own selection in the manner pecul­ iar to girls. A life partnership is not Their life is far different from that of American girls, and we could hardly fancy anything more prosy than the home life of the high and well-born Ger­ man girl. They aru educated precisely alike, the range of study being limited Tho common branches, French, some­ times English, and a few small orna­ mental accomplishments, complete the list The statement that American girls study the sciences and sometimes Greek and Latin causes from them man­ ifestations of surprise. The traditions and prejudices of their class ore careful­ ly inculcated. Any woman who does think or act in opposition to thn conven­ tional standard is looked upon with dis­ trust But their domestic education is carefully attended to; whatever their rank, they master all bronchfj> and steps of housekeeping. Their wedding trous­ seau nnd outfit in bed and table linen is generous in quantity and beautiful in texture, and usually made up by their own willing hands. An engagement with them is as solemn and binning as a xnaniage contract, and unfaithfulness in either sox is an exception tliat meets hearty condemnation. Their simpleness and quietness of life is a reproach to the lives <4 most of the idle, ease-loving, frivolous girls of many other countries. home of their own; and, though the mother is loth to loee her darling, she cannot deny her the privilege of follow­ ing her mate, as the mother did before her.

Nevada a Ridiculous State. ThoSUt^iooJ ot N.-™U i.. nairalous farce. Here is a State with a populatjon of some 60,000 with a more elab­ orate government than the State of New York. The heads of dejmrtments con­ sist of Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Comi>troller, Treasurer, Attorney Gen­ eral, Surveyor General, Secretary of State and Superintendent of Public In­ “ struction. There are three ‘Supreme Judges, Clerk of tho Supreme Court, State Librarian, who is ex-offieio Curator of the State Museum, Governor's Governor’s privote secretary, and a nmall army of dep» uties, all at exorbitant salaries. Tlie revenue to support all this fuss said feathen* has been drawn chiefly from the tax on bullion and cattle, which in the past have furnished it liberally. There are fourteen counties in the State with equally elaborate governments, which have been extravagantly supported from wn the same sources, though, of course, all ail siiecies of property have Ixnmc their share Of taxation. But the flush times have gone by, and, though tbe State’s credit is good, and it lias a largo school fund from which it can borrow.it is only a question of time when the resources will be inadequate to meet the expens*-a. All sorts of propositions are Iwing dis­ cussed to avert tho threatened dan­ ger—amendments to the constitution, a constitutional convention, dissolution of the Btate Government, etc. In my opinion tho best thing that. could be done would be to abolish tbe State and either return to a Territorial form of government or attach the Territory to California. It is merely a province o£ California as it is, and is ruled by Cali­ fornia capital. When the mines were yielding largely and cattle ranged on a thousand hills they went along as though they did not care whether school kept or not.

There is nothing wrong in tliat we suppose, but it never seem ed to us tliat it was a very good place for a shepherd to lead his flock. Prichardville is usually a quiet place, and the people who live there are, peaceful, but onqe in a while there is a row in the outskirts, and when we heard that there had been some disa­ greement near Larabeo bridge, we started with pencil in hand for the scene of battle. The following aie the facts as near as a newspaper man can nut at nt them. i. Tlinrri get There are two fami­ lies living rather too near toeachother, it seems, whoa? names we will not mention. The heads of the families had some missunderstanding, which resulted in some very harsh words, but this did not appear to satisfy the bet ter-lialC'of the older, who took her first chance to give tlie wife of the younger a bit of her mind. This she did until the younger was enraged, and gave her a bit of sole leather. The elder then retalliatcd in a like manner, when the younger, picked up a pail full of swill and dashed it upon her opponent The scene which followed, pen cannot dis­ cribe, but suffice it to say, that the younger wffe came off with flying col­ ors, and tlie elder wife returned home with tears in her eyes, vowing vengence. Now do not think tliat this hap­ pened right in the •'Ville,” for woman of such grit do not live here in our midst, but as it happened within our limmit, we were called to the painful necessity of recording it. Several of the young folks here­ abouts, took iu Barnum's circus at the Creek. Among them was our friend William of the X road. Tho young gentleman arose at an early hour, gave his horse an extra feed, bitched it to the buggy and started for the home of his sweet heart. When he arrived, that young lady bad finished putting on her shoes and waa thinking about getting breakfast Will, was told to take a chair which he did, and taking au old newspaper, began to read. In tbe course of time, the young ladr pro­ nounced he toilet complete, and that she was ready. Willie kindly helped her to a seat in hie vecbicle, and they started on that memorable journey, but they had proceeded only a mile or two, when the girl suddenly remembered that she had left her fan and parasol at home, and to go to a show o* such a day a* that without either of those ar­ ticles, wa* a thing not even to be thought ef. so the young folks stopped at one ef the neighbors and the girl visited while tbe young fellow started on a homeward trip after the desired articles. It was noon before they got started again, but they would see the evening performance at* any rate. They arriviyed at the city before sun­ down, but then there was sapper to get and other things to attend to, and when they got within tlie tent the per­ formances were in progress, however, they were there in time to ace the wind­ ing up. They arrived home early Sat­ urday meniing without any accidents, but Will, says if Barnum ever comes to Battle Creek again, they can enunt him out that’s all.

"Don’t want anybody to learn the business—-’tain’t likely?” "Well, I don’t know. Would you like to learn it?” “Pap’s so; pa, he can’t run me no mo’, so I want to get a show Borners if I can, ’taint no diff^unce what, I am strong and hearty, and I don’t turn my back on no kind of work, hard nur soft.” "Do you think yon would like to learn tlie printing business.” Well, I don’t re’ly k’yer a darn what I do learn, so’s I get a chance fur to made my way. I’d just as soon learn print’u's anything.” "Can you read!” "Yes—middlin’.” MAIN LINS. Nioodemua waa given this lonely and gaatly den aa a lied chamber. The village Hinartiet* rocoguiacd a treasure in Nicodemus right away—a butt to play jokea od. It was easy to see that be was inconceivably green aud confiding. George Jones had‘the honor of perjjetrating the first joke^ on him; he gave him a cigar with a fire­ cracker. in itand winked to tbe crowd to comb; the thing exploded presently and swept away the bulk of Nicode­ mus’ eyebrows and eyelashes. He simply said: “I consider these kind of seeg’yara dangersome,” and seemed to suspect nothing- The next evening he way­ laid Gcurgo and poured a bucket of ice water over him. One day, while Nic­ odemus was in swimming, Tom McEl­ roy “tied” his /cloths. Nicodemus made a bonfire ot Tom’s by way ot xetai inti on. A third trick was played on Nicode­ mus a day or two later—he walked up tbe middle aisle of the village church Sunday night, with a staring hand-bill pined lietween his shoulders. The joker spent the remainder ot the night, after church, in the celler of a deserted house, and Nicodemus sat on the cellar door till towards breakfast time to make sure that the prisonei remem­ bered that, if any noise was made, rough tment would be the ronse--. The cellar had two feet of quen BUg iftut water in it, and was bottomiih six inches of mud. ore a very-long time had elapsed, h 'Huge smarties began to feel an fortable consciousness of not hnvink made a very shining success eir attempts on the'simpleton out' o 'old Shelby.” Experimenters scarce aud chary. Now the young doctor came to the rescue. There was delight nnd applause when he proposed to scare Nicodemus* to death, and ex­ plained how he was going to do it. He had a noble new skeleton—the skeleton of the late and only local celebrity, Jimmy Finn himself, nt auction, for $50, under great competition, when Jimmy lay very sick in the tan-yard a fortnight before his death. The fifty'dollars bail gone promptly for whis­ ky, nnd had considerably hurried up the change of ownership in the skele­ ton. The doctor would put Jimmy Finn’s skeleton in Nicodemus’s bed. This was done—about 10:30 in the evening. Alwut Nicodemu’s usual bedtime—midnight—the village jokers came creeping stealthily through tbe “jimnson” weeds and sunflowers to­ wards tbe lonely frame den. They reached the window and peeped in. There sat the long-legged pauper on his bed, in a very short shirt, and noth­ ing more. He was dangling his legs contentedly back and forth, and weezingthe music of "Camptown Races” out-of a paper overlaid comb which lie was pressing 'against his mouth, by him lay a jewsharp. « new top, a solid In­ dia-rubber b'ui, a handful of painted marbles, I' ,c pounds of "store” candy, and a well-knowed slab of ginberbread as big aud as thick as a volume of sheet music. He had sold the skeleton to a traveling quack for $3, and was enjoying the result. THE GREAT WHEAT FIELDS.

' When the true situation of affairs be­ came apparept to the remainder of the board, they also held a caucus in order to frustrtite the plans of the opposite faction, and prevent their monopoliz­ ing tho office*, after which the meeting wo* called to order, Fidua Fish of Orangeville, was cho­ sen chairman of the meeting,andons the law directs, tho County Clerk, Enoch ■Andrus, acted as Secretary. Prof. Hall of Hastings, was elected on the second ballot, for the membei^of the Board, whose term of office should expire in one year. Geo, Bowers of Hastings, was then elected as the mem­ ber whose term expires in two years, and T. B. Diamond of Barry-, was elected for the full term of three years. The officers elected are Uli well qual­ ified for the. positions they occupy, and it is hoped they may discharge the datiefiencumbent upon them,in a man­ ner that will result in raising the standard of the schools in the county, and'that tbe new law may prove a succeM in Barry Co. at least.

In spite, however, of periodic scarcity, the great industry of Australia is the’wool industry, and it annually brings in millions of pounds sterling to tbo community. Were it not for the occasional hot winds, and the character of tho change that follows it, the climate of Melbourne would be absolutely delightful, for in winter the thermometer seldom registers less than 32 deg. Fahrenheit, aud the summer heat (save on hot-wind days) ranges no higher than 80 deg. in the shade. The traveler who has »een Parin, tbe suburbs of London and tho chief Ameri­ can cities muwes the street cars. There wre no atreet railroads in Melbourne, and all pawtenger traffic is carried on in om­ nibuses and wagonettes. Victoria is well provided with railway communication. Over 1,000 miles of line are open, and Parli.iment has just authorized tho construction of an addi­ tional 400 miles, at a coat of $70,000,000. Locomotives built in Philadelphia now run on the main lines, and tho American type of engine is preferred to the English for passenger traffic. Each of the five colonies or provinces into which tbe continent of Australia is divided is as independent of ita neigh­ tars os if they were al! so many Eurojx-an republics and kingdoms. Each makes ita own laws and has ita own tariff. Owing to tbe comparative tliinness of the population—for what are 2,000,000 people on a continent 3,000 miles long and 2,000 miles wide?—and to tho dis­ tances between the capital cities, no scheme of federation is yet practicable. It has often been talked about—the col­ onies have even conferred together on the subject—but there is no immediate prospect of the establishment of an Australian dominion nr union. Geo­ graphical difficulties and want of con­ cord on the subject of tariffs keep the colonies asr»»der. The most creditable thing in Victoria is the education system, which is free, secular and compulsory. It is conducted entirely by the Government, and haa been in operation for eight years. The cost of the system is $2,500,000 per annum—a good deal for a population of Sthon 1,000,000 to pay for tho educoi of 200,000 individual children, between the ages of 6 and 15.

The canal enters the Desplaines river about one mile aud a half north of tlumain street st Joliet, or nearly opposite the State penitentiary, aud will be about 33 miles long. Tho work of enlarg<»ment combats of about 16.000,000 cutric yards of excavation, including tho re­ moval of spoil bonks mndc from tho ex­ cavation of the present canal, of which there will be about 4,000,000 cubicyards of solid magnesian limestone to be exca­ vated. Three lift-locks will be rotjuired at the southern end, one grand lock at Bridgeport, or north end, six public rood and street drawbridges, aud one double railroad drawbridge, and a large water weir at Lock port. Tho locks are to be 850 feet long between the gates and 75 feet wide, to correspond with those now built on the Illinois river. The second division extends from one and a half miles above Joliet to La Salle, about sixty-seven miles,and will consist of the improvement of the Desplaines and Illinois riven by locks and dams, and on independent short piece of canal around the rapids of Marseilles. It wjll require the construction of eleven locks, nine dams, the raising of two dams, nine drawbridges, the independent piece of canal above referred to, and other inci­ dental work. The third division consists in the im­ provement of the Illinois river from La Ballo to Grafton, on tbe Mississippi river, distance 227 miles. Of this, ninety miles have been finished by the construction of two locks and dam*, .»n,S32,9» . 4,327,B79 . 1,000,000 J MANUFACTUKERS OF ANt> DEALERS IN FURNITURE!

The Tyranny of Buttons, Among all tho possible arguments for woman’s natural inferiority to man tiie only one having real foreq has never been formulated ; this is her meek and unquestioning submission to buttons. The buttons of the male habiliments are always coming off—notably before breakfast, when the average husband is about as amiable as a bear with sore head. At this time, if he finds a button loose, ho gives it a “yank," and then looks about helplessly for his victim— tho first woman coming into his field of vision. Ho holds the button up before her, says it has “ come ” off, and sho is expected to sow it on straightway. Gen­ erally the victim is his wife; and’, though the baby may be crying, and the break­ fast preparations in need of supervision, while the tyrant himself has nothing on earth to do but make his toilet, and'has, moreover, sowing materials right liefore him on the bureau or dressing-table, he never rises to the conception of his possible competence to supply his own vants. Woman, in his eyes, is the pre­ ordained supervisor of buttons; and a delicate consideration for her rights and prerogatives is his motive for relegating the task to her; at least this is the way he apologizes, when in a playful mood, for his lack of deftness with tiie needle, which, as a rule, is wholly tho fault of the women who had cliargo of his boy­ hood. They should have taught him to replace the buttons ho is forever wrench­ ing off with his rude fingering. One or two lessons about tho time the boy be­ gins to go to school, a little work-box placed in his room, containing needles, thread, two or three kinds of buttons and an open-top thimble—tho only kind that over should be worn—and the prob­ lem is solved for a lifetime; for whatever one is accustomed to do from childhood one does easily and dexterously. Wom­ en have shown their capacity for accom­ plishments and attainments supposed to be exclusively masculine. It is time for » corresponding display of ambition and adaptability on the part of men ; and they cannot make a better beginning than by learning, to sew on their own buttons. Family Pride. A Galveston boy of about 12 had a very poor school certificate. The old man said, as ho looked under the sofa for the bootjack : “Til have to ^ply coercive meas­ ures." “Don’t do it, father. I am afraid there will be a scene, and we don’t care to have the neighbors suspect that our relations are not harmoniow.” The neigh bon. say tiie boy's eloquence was intoned by soowthing that sounded like hitting a tough beefsteak with the flat side of an ax.—Galv^tor.

No trouble Not So Green After AIL ( A chap from the rural districts stepped into a music store in tiie city of Provi­ dence, ami, after taking a fifteen min­ utes’ survey of the contents, ho stepped up to the counter and asked the clerk if he had any new music—“brannow, just out?” The, clerk measured him with his eye for a moment, and, thinking he was ig­ norant as to music, and that anything would be freeh to his customer that had been bailed since the days of “ Rosin the’Bow,” decided to palm off some old pieces which had become a drag on the counter. So he took up “The Last Rose of Summer," and said : " Yea, here is a piece that goes with a perfect rush, and hero u * The Old Arm Chair, ‘ another favorite. 'There is • When thia Cruel War is Over,’ which is all the rage all over the city." “Thai will dew,” replied Jonathan. “ How much do you ask for the lot?” “ Ono dollar,” returned tho clerk. “ Waal, you may dew ’em up in a piece of paper and lay ’em on the shelf." The clerk obeyed, but Jonathan did not pay for the music. “ I’m going down town a piece," he said, ana if I come back I will pay for that music and take it; but if £ don't come back von may light your pipe with ‘The Last Bose of Summer,’ sitciowuin * The Old Arm Chair’ and wait till’ * Thia Cnusl War is Over.’ ’’ Jonathan slid out of the door, and the clerk looked aa though he luul been sold.

"So much for Bucking ’em,” said the nashviuLe, READY MADE CLOTHING. XnuhvUle, “ Eastern sultan,” replied the passen-ger with the sandy goatee. ’ And then the fat passenger groaned and said he gave up hope for such a man. And the woman who talks bass suddenly looked up from her black gloves and wanted to know what under the sun they were talking about " Royal people we have met." timidly said the bashful passenger, who got in at the last station. The woman who talks bass snarled under her breath. " You rile everybody you meet," she said, and the discussion went out like a kerosene lamp in a breezy hallway. The French Army. Under the empire a man might es­ cape military duty by furnishing a sub­ stitute, or by tho payment of a certain sum annually fixed by decree of the Min­ ister of War; but by the law of July 27, 1872, it is declared: that every French­ man owes personal military service, the right of substitution being abolished. He is liable to such service from tiie age of 20 to that of 40, and forms part of the active army for five years, of tiie reserve of such army for four years, of the territoriar. army for five years, and of the re­ serve thereof for six years, making twen­ ty years in all. Any Frenchman, moreover, between tho ages of 18 and 24, who has not- been already conscripted, who is of sufficient height, able-bodied, unmarried or r wid­ ower without children, and provided with a certificate of good conduct, may volunteer for five years’ service ui the army or navy. A soldier may alro re-enlist, U]x>n the completion of his five yeaniol active service, for u further term of two, three four or five years, during which period he is entitled to extra pay at the extrav­ agant rata of 8 centimes, or, if he be a non-commissioned officer, of 10 cen­ times (2 cents) a day ! Ab a further inducement to remain in active service it is provided by the law of July 24, 1878, that certain civil and military employments are reserved ex­ clusively for those who have been in the active army far twelve years, and during four of thtwe years with the grade of non-commissioned officer. The total effective force of the army in time of peace is 450,000, and in time of war 2,000,000. We may add, in passing, that tho terms of a law passed Aug. 1, 1874, homes and mules are duly enrolled, and are liable to conscription for military purposes.—George Merrill, in HarpcPt Magazine.

In 1763 tbe number of passengers by the coaches between London and Edin­ burgh could not have ’ exceeded about twenty-five monthly. In 1835 tho coaches conveyed about 140 passengers dailv. Until the close of ths last century, the internal transport of goods in En­ gland wm performed by wagon, and was qo expensive as to exclude every object except manufactured articles and such as, being of light weight and umall bulk in proportion to their value, would al­ low a high rate of transport Thus the charge from London to Leeds was st ths rote of £13 a ton, being 13fd. tier ton per mih». Between Liverpool and Man­ chester it wm 40s. a ton, or 15d. per ton per mile. Between Liverpool and Manchester it wm 40a. a ton, or 15d. per ton per mile. Heavy articles, such as coal and other materials, could only be available for commerce where their jx>sition favored transport by sea, and, ponsequently, many of the richest districts of the kingdom remained unproductive. Edirard Everett I The fate Dr. Chapin wm once nakeu I what he lectured for. “Fame," ho re­ plied, ?$50 and my expenses.” Those | were in tho days when lectures wero i>oooming popular. Since then Mr. Beech­ er and Mr. Gough havo been paid from $200 to $500 for a single lecture. A cor­ respondent of tiie Cincinnati Gazette, gossiping about tho pecuniary success of Edward Everett’s -lectures, says : Everett was hardly a lecturer in the ordinary sense of the term, and yet his address on the character of Washington, delivered in behalf of the Mount Vernon Association, was of this nature. Tho amount cleared by tiie various de­ liveries of this address averaged $400 for each occasion, and it* wm repeated 130 times. In fact, Everett’s oratory hM done more for charity than that ol any other speaker on recor’d. Including the Mount Vernon effort, the aggregate is nearly $100,000. I may odd, m a special feature, that his address on the early days of Franklin, which was repeated five times, yielded $4,000 for charitable objects. Another address which wm repeated fifteen times brought $13,500 for similar purposes. The eulogy on Thoma* Dowse, delivered twice in behalf of two institutions, brought $1,500. Everett wm tiie m<*t accomplished man <4 his age, being at home in statesmansliip, literature, oratory opd the highest walks of learning. Hia versatility wm such that it de­ served the expression which Johnson applied to Goldsmith, that there was nothing in literature that he did not touch -nd nothing that he touched that ho did not adorn. » Everett’s memory wm really wander­ fuL As a preacher he frequently mem­ orized the hymns to be used of a Sab­ bath, because it aided in reading thorn to the congregation. He committed to memory olmoef everything that came under hia attention for many years ; in other words, what entered tho eye was fixed upon ths brain. To this is to be added rare personal beauty, statuesque dignity, and charm- gifts never inflated their possessor, who wm through Lite so marked by simplicity of character 1 Nothing Short of Unmistakable Benefit*) Conferred upon tens of thousands of sufferers could originate and maintain the reputation which Ayer's SarsaPAJUI.I.A eqjoys.

The Washington Republican atja: A good story is told on Lieutenant Hoxie, the youpg gray-headed assistant engi­ neer at thex Columbia Buildings. While at) St. Louis he ho and therother the-other stationed at, young^nfllgera were much exercised at the rigor of Gen. Callender, who was a regular old martinet. He made the other officers tend back to their regi­ ments all tho enlisted men who were serving them as orderlies, while he never thought of interfering with those about hb own quarters. Callender was fond of a good horse, and had a pair that wore extremely fast. Hoxie, who before his marriage was an admirer of horse­ flesh, had an animal which ho consid­ ered quite rapid, and one day while driving overhauled the General and asked him to ride. The invitation was accepted, and Hoxie, anxious to show the speed of hb horse, gave him the whit). Thb caused him to flirt hb tail, firicx up hb cars, and start off at a rapd pace, which he immediately sensibly increased, causing the Lieutenant to pull very hard to keep him down into a trot. “Thb is a pretty good horse you have. Hoxie," said tho General. “Yes," said Hoxie, pulling with all hb might, “very fair.” “ He goes along right well,” said the senior officer. “ How fast do you think we are going?” By this time they had left the city and were flying along the road that led to the Arsenal, and Hoxie realized that hb horse was running away. He tried to curb hb speed without alarming the old man, but all hb efforts were unavailing, and they tore along at a breakneck pace. Once or twice the horse shied a little, but not greatly. The General finally renewed his question: “I say, Hoxie, how fast do you ouppose we are going?” “I’m blessed if I know,” said Hoxie, who was nearly played out tugging at the reins. By thb time the old man began to be somewhat alarmed, and pulling out hb watch bo said: “ Well, Hoxie, I would like to go fur­ ther with you, but I have an engagementthat I must keep, and if you will let me out now I will be obliged." “ Oh, certainly,"said Hoxie, with the perspiration standing on hb brow in great beads. “Yes, indeed, I’ll let you out now," and he made a mighty effort, and just then the horse shied bo that tho buggy was nearly upset. The nag stop­ ped, however, and the old General piled out. The moment he struck the ground and felt perfectly safe he turned to the Lieutenant and said: “I tell you, Hoxie, that’s a good horse, and he’s fast, too; but I think you ought to break him of that habit of shying. I think you should lick it out of him,” and the old man walked off. *Hoxie waited until be got hb wind and recovered his strength, and then drove slowly back, subsequently telling his brother offioers that he had run away with the old General without bls know­ ing it. Whether he suspected it or not, the General used to say that “That that little fellow Hoxie was the most reckless good horse in a mighty abort time.” Face to Face with a Leopard. One day last week n Detroit producbnyer had occasion to remain ever night with a farmer in Western Michi­ gan. While eating supper he was ask­ ed if he knew any Un ng aliont law; whether he had ever served on » jury; if he called himself a a competent man to arbitrate in an affair between neigh­ bors, and if he was posted on the law regarding breach of promise cafes. He answered these questions as beat he could, and apparently to the satisfac­ tion of the farmer, for as soon aa the niehl was finished the sun-browned agriculturist confidentially began: "I think you’r n pretty square man, and I may want you to help me out of a little difficulty.

John Sheppard, an infidel of Orion, Neb., built a platform alongside a Methodiat camp meeting ground, and made daily speeches against the doc­ trines preached by the Methodist min­ isters. He was au annoyance to the Christians, and they tried hard to con­ vert him, but all in vain. One day an impulsive clergyman prayed that if Sheppard could be silenced in no other way he might be removed by death. That evening the infidel died very sud­ denly, and it would be difficult to con­ vince’ the people thereabout that he wm killed in direct answer to prayer. The prodigious work of regrow th aud improvement now going on in the ■ South is forcibly exhibited by the statement that there hiui l>eeii sub­ scribed in tire North and in Europe daring the past eighteen months $100,­ 000,000 for investment in that section of the Union. Of course, n large per­ centage of this ia, for tin- purchase of railroad lines. Nevertheless, there have beeu large investments in cottonznftBufscturing enterprises, in the de­ velopment of coal and iron mines, in the erection of blast furnaces, and in schemes like that enormous olio for draining the everglades of Florida. Capital is abundant, and it is evidently now seeking a Southern outlet of in­ vestment to an extent never before known, The scene was one of resplendent fineness. The mobn shed a silvery sheen over idle earth, bathing in beauty all that hovered within the horizon. Every sound was ns hushed as the heart of the ileail. Suddenly a passing wayfarer saw a sight that chilled him to thelteart’s core. On the lawn of a magnificent mansion, kneeled a rare and radiant maiden, looking up,suppli­ cating to a tall, dark ^ruan, who stood bending o’er her. Distinctly and with blood-curdling effect the wayfarer heard pealing qut like tones of God’s judgement upon the night air, echoing and re-echoing like the long remem­ bered laugh of maniac—"Mercy, O, heaven! As life is sweet, George, dear Gburge. knock that horrid, infernal worm off the back of my neck.” Mary Dunn, the blind Philadelphia girl who professes to have visions ol the Virgin Mary, adheres to her claim of that speciul favor. She wished an altar eroctecl iu her bedroom, and at midnight under her direction, several persons knelt and recited the litany of the Blesed Virgin. “Maryday in bed.” Bays one of these witnesses, and nil of them agree iu tbe account, “a lighted caudle in her left hand, and with her right she was pointing toward a cer­ tain spot iu the wall just over hfcr bed­ side, and saying: ‘There is; just there. Don’t you aeeT I looked in tbe direct­ ion which she indicated, and there, up­ on flu wall, just as plain as if it. wenpainted, I saw the picture of the Bless­ ed Virgin Mary. I stayed there two hours, aud all the while the picture re­ mained upon the wall. It was jast as we see it in the paintings, with a sweet, demure face, and great mournful eyes. There was a halo al>out the bend and a strange but distinct light. All the while tbe blind child seemed to be fill­ ed with utterable joy. I thought she would have spasms. She prayed fer­ vently and without ceasing.” Tbe vis­ ion is solemnly declared by others to have been several times repeated. On one occasion, says a woman wix> was present, all saw the resplendent figure on the wall except a girl, who, for her perversity, was followed by the devil, in the form of a black cat. Tbe Postmaster-General proposes to change the money order system of the country. As now conducted it isquestionable whether it is a nuisance or an accommodation. A person to get a money order for $1 goes to the postolice, takes his place in line, make* out a request that is about equal to re­ viling the Old Testament, waits his turn and receive* a document with about as much writing on it as a war­ ranty deed. After all this bis order is worthleM nnleaa the postmaster of whom it is purchased sends an advice to the postmaster on whom it is drawn explaining the enigma as fully as sible. A mistake iu either has to lie rectified, white the holder of the prec­ ious 81 order waits for mails to bring the desired in form at ion. The Secre­ tary proposes to substitute in placet of all thia utterly useless and expensive machinery an engraved blank of two denominations, running up to 82.50 and $5.00. Upon these blanks numer­ ate are printed in column*, and tin? I amount of the order is punched out. If tile order is for $3.75, a three is pouched out of the first column, a sev­ en out of tbe second, and a five out of the third. A purchaser will present his money, get his order (or as many of tlyrm as he pleases), and present them when he pleases for payment. They are to be good for three mouths from issue, and payable to tbe person to whom they are endorsed. Iu thia way a large saving will be made, and tbe business much simplified. quarter toeapgon; salt, one-half tea­ spoon. — Iced ButlermHk. — There Is no healthier drink than buttermilk, but it must be creamy, rich buttermilk to be good.

There are several advantages of the plan that will suggest themselves at once to any thoughtful person, among them the ex­ ercise, the promotion of knowledge, tho cultivation of rural tastes, business habits and self dependence, and last, but not least, the edification and en­ largement of the mind that comes of contact with the soil and attention to the wonderful ways of vegetation. —Yes, our houses are very pretty; they are painted tho whitest of the white and the blinds the geenest of the green; but why are tho door-steps and the piazza in such neglected state?

Po11-Et11. In the treatment of this cxso the pa­ tient should be confined on a light diet and a potion of cooling medicine should also be given—ten or twelve ounces of Glauber salts dissolved in six gills of hot water. As soon as the liquid is suffi­ ciently cool it should be poured down the throat from a smooth-necked cham­ pagne bottle. The tumefied parts shouldl be kept constantly wet by means off bandages thoroughly saturated in a mix­. ture composed of equal parts of purei cider vinegar and cold water. Thisi treatment should be well persevered in, for a few days. Should the tumor in thei meantime increase in size and the partsi develop much heat, a poultice of bruised. flaxseed should be applied twice daily• for forty-eight or ninety -six hours,or un­• til the tumor manifests a fluctuating feeling. You will please note that no> procrastination should be indulged in, such as waiting patiently for the tumor to break at its own accord, but as soon, as the matter can be distinctly felt by1 pressure make an incision slantingly with a sharp knife upon the right aidei of the neek at the base of the abscess. The incision or cut must not be made so। deep as to come in contact with the spi­ nal corn or inarrow. The opening of! the base of the tnmor should be made। sufficiently large to allow the pus to। freely escape as fast as it forms. A se­ ton should be passed down from tbe। natural opening at the top af the tumor through the artificial opening made at AB base. Before inserting the seton it should be dipped in tincture of cantharides. This will be found the safest and best plan to adopt for promoting healthy granulation and adhesion to the walls of the tumor. The fistulous track is not probably very long, and the tape seton will work its way gradually but efficaciously out, by which time the cure is made. A stimulus is also neces­ sary to be applied to the interior of tbe tumor, by reaalurating the seton, in three or four days after it is first in­ serted, with a solution made by dissolv­ ing ten grains of nitrate of silver in one ounee of cold water. This tetter-named stimulus should be applied twice per week until a healthy discharge of pus appears; then stop. In the opening, from the top down to the artificial open­ ing at the bottom, should be injected three times a week a stimulus composed of one drachm of chloride zinc dissolved in one pint of cold water. Apply tha zinc lotion in half an hour after using the camharides tincture and tho nitrate of silver solution. The tincture of cantharides should only be applied once, and tha nitrate of silver solution on the third or fourth day after, and continue as long as found necessary; but tbe zinc lotion should be appliedzinoe daily until a healthy granulation takes place, then ever)' secjnd or third dayuntil the parti heal sound.—Jf.

The following nice little anecdote was gleaned from an English colonial paper, where it was published as an actual oc­ currence in tho immediate neighborhood during the week, with much local and collateral detail.

This did not satisfy the cravings of his capacious stomach, so ho wont afield in search of further victuals, and presently camo to a fence, which ho essayed to got through.

Now, what was the state of affairs?

Philadelphia Times. Hein* to Bleep to toe Day Coach. It was not Mr. Dinkleman’* fault that he was a tall man, and in fact,under or­ dinary circumstances he was very proud of his figure. But one night last week he came down from Chicago to Burling­ ton, and couldn’t get any kind of a show in the sleeper, and one seat all to him­ self was the best they could de for him in the day car. But bo was weary all tbe same and had to sleep. So he stowed sway his valise and prepared to slumber. He made very elaborate preparations, several times.' before he oould get things fixed to suit him. First he' jui(t thrust his feet out half way across the') aisle and pillowed his weary head on/tite window sill. That waa very comlortable. But in a minute or two a woman walked down the aisle and fell over his feet and screamed; then a child came along and fell over the feet and cried; then a man came along,stumoled over the feet and swore, and just as Mr. Dinkleman was begin­ ning to hope the procession was all by, the brakeman came rushing along, he stumbled over tho projecting feet, made one short, unrevised remark, turned up and gave the nearest' foot a kick that made every lost soul aboard that car draw in his breath and shudder and shriek “ aou-ou-ow!" and then he said to Mr< Dinkleman: “ Now hold out tho other one." But Mr. Dinkleman said nothing. He could only hold that foot up by tho ankle, hold it high in the air with both hands, while he swayed back and forth, held his mouth wide open and wished for a broken bridge, an open switch, or an accident policy. Then when the cessation of his agony allowed him to feel sleepy again, he, buckled himself up into the shape of.the letter N, with his knees braced against the back of the seat in front of him, his feet hanging down, his body erect, and his head drooping over the back ot the seat. But both his feet got sound asloep long before he did, and when h= stood up he fell down and all the pas­ sengers shook their heads, tho men laughed sardonicAl laughs, the women said, “what a shame; such a nice, re­ spectable looking man, too," and the man on the wood-box unfeelingly said “too. much booze." And his h'at fell off into a seat behind him and tho man on that seat put his feet in it and spit all over it before Mr. Dinkleman could find it. Clearly that was no way to sleep. Then be curled up in his seat, like a dog on a rug, with hts knees drawn up to nis chin, mAead on tho window sill and his feet braced against the end of the seat. In about twenty minutes ho woke ujj with more aches in his legsand body than ho had hairs on his head. He was so soro and stiff that it was ten min­ utes before ho could bond his elbows enough to get his hands in his pockets to get his ticket, and tho conductor gut lirod waiting for him tti last, and said sternly, “get off at the next station," and Mr. Dinkelman could hear the passengers saying “deadbeat” and "got the bounce” and “served him right.” Evi­ dently, no man could sleep very long in that posture and get home with any kind of a reputation. Then he tried to sit straight ud and hold his head up by clasping his hands behind it, but w'hcn his hands gave way his head fell back with a snap that camo so near breaking his neck he hasn't got over it yet, and one of the passengers asked him if he did that for fun or just because he liked it. Then ho leaned his head down on the back of the scat be­ fore him and dozed until bo woke up with a crease in his forehead like the brand of Cain. Then ho lay down with his head pillowed on the arm of tho seat, and the first man that walked down the aisle jammed his head half way down into his neck, and made him feel that life was a mockery. Then he sat up in tbe seat facing the aisle, put bis feet up­ on the arm of the seat, leaned his head against tbe window, and broke the glass the first time the car lurched. Thirty cents and a cold in tbe head for that. Having thus sampled all the positions he could think of he spent the rest of the night trying them, sometimes separate­ ly, and sometimes altogether, ana when at last he got to Burlington his hair was gray, his eyes were wild, be had to be carried to his home on a stretcher, and the doctors put bim in a mustard-plaster case right away, where he has lain ever since.

He asdritad much of his snccre.s to her atMtistaiice aud in­ fluence. John Howard, the pliilauthro pint, married out of gratitude a woman who was equally his senior. She died in a few years, however/ and Ins' second union waa one. of love. It was, how­ ever, also dissolved by the deaffe of his wife, and then he devoted himself to philanthropy. Napoleon’s first wife, Joseph ne, was his senior by six yearn, being 30 at the time of their marriage, while he was 25. It would have been well for him had he valued her conjugid love, whose violation was the beginning of feta ruin. Aaron Burr also married a widow, who, like Josephine, had two children. Mrs. Burr was ten years older than her husband, but the union was very harmonious. Shu probably allowed him that large liberty with the fair sex to which ho had been accustomed, and thus avoided domestic quarrels. John Wilkes, the famous .London jigitator of the last century, married a laily who was ten years his senior, but she was not willing to overlook hu irregularities, and hence obtained- a divorce. Johnson, the lexicographer, married the Widow Porter, who had a small property. He was acquainted with the family before the death of her husband, and this helped in tbe matter of court­ ship. Mrs. Porter was 48, while her husband was only 21 nt the time of tile wedding. The parties started horseback for the place where the ceremony was to ta iwriurmed, and Johnson thus dsscritaijhe journey to Boswell: “Sir, she has got into her head from old r<>manues that a woman of spirit should use her lover like a dog. At first she told me I rode too fast and she could not keep up with me, but when I slacked my pace she passed me and complained tluit I lagged. I was not to ta mode lhe slave of caprice, and therefore pushed on till I was out of sight. When she got to tho destination I observed that she was in tears." Johnson always mourned the loss of his wife, and though hi\ waa only 43 at tho time of her death, he never married again. How often in his subsequent writings he refers to his lost companion in the most affectipuiiUmanner. When only 18 Shakspeare was marrirti to Annie Hathaway, whose age was 25.

Last week Thursday,Jone of these quarrels happened,which resulted more sent only than any previous one and according to the most reliable re­ ports was commenced by Mrs. Bakers making an attack upon her husband with a burse-whip, while he was hitch­ ing dp his horse to come to town. Baker retaliated rather severely with his cane, and according to a subsequent affidavit of Mrs. B., gave her a terrible beating on the arms and body. On Monday a warrant was issued for his arrest upon a charge of assault and battery which was served by officer Osman. After talking with counsel, they were advised to make some com­ promise, and either divide the proper­ ty, or make an armstice aud again try and live together. Upon consultation together for some time, it was agreed that Mr. B. should give her his note for $1,650, and sign an agreement to deliver to her upon demand, one half of all bis personal property, and she in return should sign a quitclaim deed of all her right, title and interest, to her dower in his real estate, which was doue by both parties and the neccessary papers sealed and deliveied. Mr. Baker paid the costs of the suit and the complaint of assault and battery was dropped. They started for home at a late hour Monday night, and are probably living together again, although the spark of love may not be so bright as in former years.

They found the stack completely enveloped in flames, to subdue which they hastily applied themselves.

X 1881 OUR EUROPEAN LETTER. ’ Lok don, Eno; Aug. 18,1881. Of late yrant in England ^tliero have iiprnng up in lofty and loud style a class of, railroad terminal “hotels” with architectural fuss in the front nnd foul food nnd charges in tlie rear. A surfeit of Gothic Imm and bizarre maaonary, an crnpliou of abortive Eiizabethion doaigns, with a piuwlty of politeness, a scantiness of cookery, and an avalanche of "extras.” are the |pmminent attraction* anil repellanta *of a London hotel. They are all “grand hotels” iu the sense of insufficient c-omforta and excessive charges. Taken ns a whole, London hotels are fifty years, behind the age'in domestic attraction and sixty years ahead in extortion. From slim bods and their bolsters to sloppy kitchens and impertinent clerks they have.no equal since the days of ; argonauts in San Francisco. Front “extras” beyond the mathematical I mind of Cocker, to “attendance,” ns my tbical and uiuddletl as some of our di­ plomatic minister’s dispatches, they stand on n domain not to be approach­ ed by Shylock or the ancient American pleinpotentiary at Athens. As a rnle, | simperingiiiid^ipercilions "clerks ” of '' the female brand are the monarch- of • all they survey: From giddy youth to mellow age they are in the fine linen aud purple of place. That place is u sort of Box and Cox apartment called "the office” While there may be no room to swing a kitten in it Jtherv in a perpetual swilling of beer and tea go­ ing on in there to a marvelous extent and you may ring till the crack of doom aud die in your room before “Miss” the yonthfu! spinster, or “.Missus” the rig«Ml one. would leave the cup that cheers or the Iteer that brutalises to answer i your call. J doubt if then- is simul­ taneously less tea and-beer going down these feminine throats than there arc mental "extras” going up for your bill. In this gloss den these fair ones figure | marvelously, well, but not wist ' President Garfield still livAa is the gratifying intelligence which routes to ns from America, nnd while there* is . life there is hope. It has been tin anx­ ious week for the Amoricnu people. They were told many days ago tlstrt the crisis hod passed, and that the Presi­ dent was out of all danger. It was, therefore, with a shock tliat wr, ou this side of the Atlantic, heard ou Sunday, that Mr. Garfield had had a d the *wojlfcu parotid Bocumulated in al least ~ Uw.~wr< 1 addition to tho eno io which the incitdon wm made on WtdnMday, and ras aosoiuicty noetvsary that Eu system should bo quickly stimulated.

Last week there appeared in tbe township of Sharon, Washtenaw county, an army ot worms of a variety hitherto unknown ta that aectliiu. Tiie w onus vary from one half tach to four inches in length, and are striped with black and yellow. They first were seen in a sixteen acre field of parsley,which was literally covered with them, and they spread to the ad­ jacent fields to their favorite parsley. Great numbers of (>eople came to the field to view the novel sight. Whence they came and what they are is a mystery to everyone. . A few days ago Chester Dew, a colored man living ta Riley township, Clinton Co., was found in his granary dead, hanging to a beam with the left aide of hi£ head laid; open by a terrible gash, evidently by an ax. It seems that laat spring be was vkited by a body of masked men who treated him to a coat of tar and feathers. A few day* before, be went to St. Johns, the county seal, for the purpose of eommcncing legal proceedings against (several parties whom be had reason to Rielle ve were tbe performers of tbe outrage. He lived alone. Friday afternoon, SepLSd, John R. Campbell, who occupies the well known “Casey farm,” three mile* north of Ypsilanti, noticing a pecuha odor Impregnated the atmoaphen-, made a search which resulted in the finding of the body of a dead woman about four feet from the fence of a field upon a farm across tbe road. The body wm lying upon ita back ta a dump of hazel ta. a position where it could never have been placed except by some person throwing it from tlie road over the fence. Four Itolea in the right breast were thought to have been bullet wounds, but proved to have been tussle by j mmrote which thickly thleklv covered the body. hn.lv A a the tuagote possible clue to tbe murderer, although a alight one, ia afforded ta the statement of a citizen who reside* on Kreat avenue, that hie family, several nights ago heard tbe cries of a more significant fact [is that Albert Craue. a Ii-TT- i.’«lh*t on Monday evening while driving by tbe flcki ta whieh the body was found, be noticed a man crouch and hide as I e suffering from dyspepsia, hemorrhoids, and had born* an operation for fistula on tho lower bowel*.

Guiteeu wrote a letter to District Attorney Corkhill yesterday, expressing great regret that ho did not kill tho President in tbe Ver­ mont Avenue church when bo went thcro few that purpose. The villain says he U sorry tho President suffer* so mu?h, bet a great deal mure sorry that the President 1* not dead. Wasisotom, Sept. 2. , Tho President ha* not improved much iu tho last twenty-four hour*. Ho held his own, how­ ever, tho physician* say, and although, he did not gain strength enough to help himself, he looked bettor, his voice wm utrongcr. and ho talked more. The condition of tho wound did not improve, and the physicians think it will not until tho gland u better. Tho patient chewed a j>k-cc of chicken yesterday and swal­ lowed tho juice ; he also awallbwcd the juice of a piece of beefsteak, and took a little oyster soup in addition to tho usual amount of liquid nourishment. Tbe fluctuations of the patient's pulse are attribute'! to weakn“*s. When he grows weary or hi* wound in dreased tbure is an immediate rise in tha pulao. The question of the Preaidenl'* removal was diacnisaed by tho physician* ycaterdav. but no action wm dct<rmioed ou. Ibero i< one disquieting feature of^tbe case which accounts poadbly for thi* high tempera­ ture, and that u, that the stomach in not doing ita* work, tho food does not Mtenulate, and there is consequently no tncrener in strength. Il is said that tho mcmbors ef tho Cabinet have several times discussed the feasibility of calling upon Vice President Arthur to attend to executive busineas until the President re- step. Washkiotox, Sept. 3. Tho President gained slightly yonerday. His symptom* last n'ght were somewhat more favorable than on tho previous night, and through the day hi* pulso wm leas frequent and more steady than it bad been the day bcfoie. Ho relished hi* food rather Letter loan at any time ainje hi« re­ lapse. 1 L~ patient is still "very weak. Tbe parotid gland continue* to suppurat- and has not yet commenced to heal, and tbe wound hss not unproved muck The most hopeful symp­ tom* are tho i patient's growing anjictito, tho healthy condition cf his stomach, and the readiness with which the tood he partakes of i* asainulated. Yesterday he took, some soup, and chewed a pit-co of stowed squirrel, aud asked fm more, but it wm not deemed wei to accede to his request The patient evinces a great desire to bo removed from the capital, and, though tbe physician* do not think it aafe to comply with his wishes in tbai matter just at present, they are free to say that as soon m it can l<e safely done they will advws hi* rcmovd, probably to lx>ug Branch. Washinotux, Sept 5. Tho President’* condition ou Saturday night seemed to Vo Msutmng the grave features of another relapse. Owing to the efforts made to clean his throat, the stomach was so much irri­ tated m to cause two spells of nausea and vom­ iting. During Bunday he had no recurrence of this difficulty, but the pulso ruled higher than it had for two previous days. Tho parotid gland is nearly recovered, tbs wound showing no material change. Arrange­ ments are being made for the removal of liis President to Long Branch within a very few days. Tho attending physician* belters’that this is absolutely necessary, and, although tho ax|>erimcnl is an extremely critical one, it Is thought that his stay at tho Wlate House will be not leas dangeron*.

LOCAL GIBBLE-GABBLE , Ab4 rBnsBRl Ckit-CksL Again this week doe* the school-boy editor of the Hastings Banner, with a recklessness that should challenge ad­ miration, devoteafull half column to The News, but drifts entirely away from the subject—which the reader will remember was diphtheria. The charge this time is piracy; the Banner publishing ten items from the Banner, and News to sustain the charge, yet neither of these are worded alike, and a good citizen remarks over our atfoulder: "Those credited to The News have a pith to them not to be found in tiie Banner's; for instance, what a cap­ tivating local is the one belonging to the Banner, which speaks'of Traverse Phillips as being ‘quite seriously’ ill.” Tl.e charge is a dead give-a- way upon the journalistic qual ties of the editor of the Banner, for if he contijyieB in the editing business any great length of time he will discover that even rewriting itodis—which does not apply in this case as a' portion of the items, under discussion at least, were written by our Hastings corres­ pondent is not piracy. Th« school boy also alludes to the “deserted streets” of our “hamlet,” and the “crowded thoroughfares ” of bis city. Kerripity! what a cheeky asser­ tion, when everybody knows tint for the past six-weeks, business in Hast­ ing has been flat as a flounder, and that their principal street resembles a by-road in the country. Vbrily, the Bannerman is “quite ser­ iously” out of order, but wo will not arise to this point, for we have it upon good authority that he has been most woefully scared by the diphtheria, and is also in love. These two passions have assumed complete control of his once festive soul, and he has become as solemn os a jackass in a graveyard. Why, his girl lives on one side of the town and he on the otlrer, and although he is loyally-inclined, yet he is so fear­ fully afraid of the diphtheria that he has been to see her only twice in two weeks, and then he walked over four miles around through the country to avoid catching the diphtltena .Bowers' condition ia certainly very delicate, and we can freely forgive his unjust accusation. —The fanuors should respond liber­ ally to the call from their burned-out brethren on the peninsula between Lake Huron and Saginaw Bay.

It had leaked out that the officer had a very strong link in the chain of evidence against Chapman before he was apprehended.

Arbiter was chosen moderator, in acknowledgment of his wisdom, aud because of his reputation as a settler of disputes. Vice-presidents were selected from Scripture proper names, abbreviations, and noted names of fiction, and- Bccord elected secretary. The meeting being duly organized, the chairman announced the business to come before it, giving a brief but spir­ ited account of Up's history and suffer­ ings. lie was followed by Argument, an old and experienced debater who had spent much time in court, and was noted chiefly for always being on the*contrary side. For this once, however, he hap­ pily agreed with the prevailing opinidh. Poor old Mr. Preface was tired—not that ire had been particularly Ihisv—no, that was the pity of iu Time had been when every caller at Dictionary Man­ sion had, first of all, paid their respeejs to him; iu return, ho imparted to each .new visitor gudjittie hints and geu&ral information as its founder, Mr. Webster, thought they might need to aid them in their researches. But, alas! those days were of the past! In the rush and hurry of modern. Amer­ ican life, people could not wait to con­ fer with him. There were ooustant call­ ers at tho mansion with whom he had’ never interchanged a word—people who rushed thron^h tho halls, found the room of the Word they desired to. con­ sult, made their inquiries, :md then bolted unceremoniously. All this wor­ ried Mr. Preface very much, for was ho not au old aud faithful servant? Mr. Webster himself had given him the position of janitor when Dictionary Man­ eion was first completed. It was comparitively a smaJJ house then; and through all its changes to the present enormous structure, with its numberless lodgers, he had remained faithfully at his post. These were a few of the sad thoughts occupying his attention one night as he sat restlessly in his arm-chair, wearied with enforced idleness. It was rather late for him, .too. He usually closed the doors early in the evening; but that night Orator Puff was to speak at the Town Hall, and had engaged many of the biggest Words to assist him, and Mr. Preface was awaiting their return. Meanwhile, the poor old fellow was slowly going over his sorrowful thoughts, when he was suddenly startled by a scream. It evidently came from a dis­ tant part of the building. Going Into the hall, he found it rapidly filling with excited Words, anxidus to know the cause of the alarm. As the commotion appeared greatest in the corridor of the M LJ’s,” he hurried there, and soon found himself at the room of little Mr. Vp. Crowding past Curiosity, who stood vacantly staring through the door, he saw the body of the little ledger lying prostrate on the floor. Bending over him were PUy and Sym­ pathy, vainly trying to bring him to consciousness. Miss Upas, the lady who lived iu the adjoining chamber, gave this explana­ tion: Her neighbor had come home unusually late tliat evening. After hearing him close his door, she felt the jar of some one falling. Hurry­ ing to his room, she discovered him lying on the floor, apparently dead, and, in her terror, she gave the piercing scream which alarmed the house. Mr. Aid was tho first to appear omthe scene, and wim doing all ho could to revive the sufferer. When Up had sufficiently recovered, he told his story, as follows: € “ Mine is simply a case of nervous and bodily cxhaiistiop, caused by constant overwork. There has not been a night for the last two years that I have not obme homo so utterly fagged out tha» it seemed as if I never oouldbegin my end­ less labor again. Ever since the Jones family came to this town, my services have been in constant demand from’ early dawn till late at night. It ap­ pears there is hardly an idea in their beads but they think my presence nec­ essary for its expression. For instance, there is Father Jones. At first cock crow, he ‘wakes up'; then ‘gets up’ and •makes up’ the fire; ‘does up’ his chores: ‘blocks up’ bis boots; ‘eats up’ whatever his wife ‘cooks up’ for break­ fast; ‘goes up’ to the store; ‘figures up’ the cash account; ‘buys up’ more goods; •mark? up’ the prices; ‘fills up’ the or­ ders ; ‘foots' up’ the profits: ‘shuts up’ the store; ‘dresses up* for dinner; ‘sits up’ awhile afterward, calling for my assistance continually, until he ‘locks up’ tho house for the night and ‘shuts up’ his eyes in slumber. “At the same time Miss Fannie ‘dress­ es up;’ ‘does up’her hair; ‘takes up’ her book; ‘gets nerself up’ in her lewon; ‘hunts up' her bonnet: ‘hurries up' to school; ‘catches up’ with a schoolmate; praise of her teacher; ‘dividea up’ her umebeon at recess; and, as she ‘rides up* home iu the horse-car, ‘makes up’her mind to ‘be up’ at the head of the school ere the term is ‘up.’ “Tommy Jones‘runs up’to the store on an errand; ‘trips up’ over a stick; cries out that he Is all ‘bruised up,’ until . -_____ ______ ________ _ up’ good courage and try “No doubt tho Americans are a wellmeauing race. But they are extreme­ ly careless and seldom think. And no doubt the Joneses are, at this very moment, serenely sleeping in utter . un­ consciousness of the pain and misery which their dullness has inflicted upon poor little Up. Of course they mean to do right, and would not knowingly injure'any one. But that is a poor excuse. Now these same American? have a soci­ ety for the prevention of cruelty t>» ani­ mals. They .^eem to be in greater need of a society'for the prevention nf cruelty to the English language, a society whose rigid laws should be strictly enforced. Perhaps my words seem strong, but, my friends, Up's case is not an unusual one. I see before me even now two Words, You and Know, who have had an equally bitter experience. Whenever some peo­ ple summon us to the aid of their ideas, You and Know are hitched in with the other Word. Sometimes they trot be­ fore and sometime behind. In either case, while they do not help the expressions, but are rather a hindrance, they become quite as fatigued as if doing regular and proper work. Now, If Mr. Jones, for instance, should see a pair of horses used in the same way, he would at once set down their driver as an idiot, if not something worse. But tho two cases arc not unlike, although our unthinking friends seem not to perceive this.” Another speaker thought that, wAs the Joneses and others have probably never looked at the subject in that light, it might be that if it were so presented to them they would see the justice of the complaiut And offend no more. I should, therefore, move, Mr. Chairman, that our friend Preface should be ap­ pointed n committee of one to call their attention to the matter, and urge a re­ form.” At this point, Mr. Preface arose and addresml the meeting in & sorrowful manner. He thought the appeal should be spread far and wide by some able and influential advocate. Reminding his bearers ot his own neglected posi­ tion and waning powers, he moved to amend by having an account of the whole affair prepared for publication. The amendment lieing accepted, the resolution as amended was passed by a unanimous vote, after which the meet­ ing adjourned.—St. Nidioliis. —Bret Harte, in giving his opinion of the royal family, says that the Princess Beatrice looks Uke “ a- pleasant, com­ fortable, corned Kentucky girl;” —The MedMttCguncil of St. Petersburgh has authorized women to prac­ tice in pharmacy, so that Russian women have now free access to all branches of medicine. » —Prince Leopold, the Duke of Alba_ny, spends the greater portion of his life attending charitable organizations and philanthropic reform.

It is a granite tomb after the Roman style, with a coflin of black marble under the can­ opy, and the word “Bernhardt” in largo stone letters on tho temple’s front. Each day fresh flowers are- laid on the tomb, although it is yet unoccupied. —Queen Victoria is quite as observant of trifles as ever George III. was, and overlooks nothin';, and if any of the royal.family reside more than a certain number of days they are obiteed to “do for” themselves at tho end of the speci­ fied term.

As the Shenandoah Valley fast express entered the mile cut immediately north of our town on Tuesday last the engineer was horror-stricken to see what he sup­ posed to ba tho end of the rail just ahead of his rushing locomotive sliding rapidly away from him. His first thought was a broken rail caught by tho pilot, and he expected an instantaneous shock. Won­ derment usurped the place of fear when a second glance revealed a five-foot blacksnake of the species known as “runner,” gliding rapidly away from him on top of the rail. In the excite­ ment of the moment his hand sought tho throttle, he threw it wide open and the train bounded forward under the im­ pulse, but the snake maintained its lead although the train wm running at ffilly fifty miles per hour, and when the end of the cut wm reached, and opportunity was afforded tv escape, it left the rail, ran out into an open space, coiled itself up, threw its head into an attitude of defiance and died right there. An ex­ amination proved that the intense beat pf the rail had burned it to death.— and FURNISHING GOODS Make them a Specalty. I WILL GUARANTEE BETTER BARGAINS THAN AST ONE ELSE CAN GIVE.

Brother llart had jnat made a fervent prayer, and wan laboring zealously among the’ mourn­ ers, -when tbe six members of the Fi­ nance com mi tee reminded him that he had climbed over the fence instead of entering by the gate.

Greasy Creek, in Arkansas, is one of the latest natural wonders which this country can boast of. We have al­ ready, in response to those lands which raise bread, fruit and manna, produced a spring whose waters are said to taste like turtle soup; but now the Rev. John R. Yeatts, a Baptist divine, is quoted as authority for a spring near Greasy Crvek, flowing forty gallons a minute, colored like apple cider, and tasting like applejack. He saw hun­ dreds “lying” around the spring, in a state of blissful intoxication, laughing and*trying to slap. their bands. Their name given to these springs is tbe Mil­ lennium Springs; doubtless as signify­ ing tliat they bring back the golden age. Some persons may refuse to be­ lieve in their existence; yet no one can deny that the Roy. John IL Yaetts is a possible and plausible name. The St. Louis -beauty, Miss Nellie Hazeltiue, will sec, by recent delelopments, that it is an expensive thing to flirt with an opera singer, particularly when oue has a blooded brother and a blooded lover. Mr. Amberg, the gen­ tleman sbesmiled upon so sweetly, who talked about it to his friends, and who was whipped by Miss Nellie’s lover and brother, has just recovered $500 from the latter and $1,000 from the father of the girl in settlement of his damages. Mr. Amberg’s greatest crime was his profession. Had he been of the St. Louis blood blue. It wouldn’t have been so bad, but the idea of Miss Haz­ eltine flirting with a mere opera singer! Well, you know, that was too much. Amberg, if he is half a man, will never have full satisfaction until he marries her. She gave him her picture, it is ■aid.

A REASONABLE PROPOSITION. Upon reading bis copy of last week’s News, the Hastings school boy editijr imagining that we had been indulging iu some personalities that reflected on his chastity, worked himself into quite a lather, aud thia week intimates that the editor hereof, ia-abad man. Now we believe the school-boy editor has an unblemished character—.ns pure as the driven snow, and if his intentions are not honest, 'tie he himself that has giv­ en them away, for we defy him or any­ one else to show where we have cast any reflections upon him. Because he is in love, that is no evidence that he is a bad man. Love is libly. Evidently Bowers, condition is “quite seriously” delicate as ho would not imagine such things; neither would he intimate that The News lied. Read what ho writes : “Lied about a corpse being alkl Into a hearw at tbe next door, aud went back to tbe deserted street! of bls little hamlet boo-hooing because pc saw so many ‘mu! and solemn faces* and---so much business done here. Tbe Banner im­ mediately averred upon the authority of the board of health that not to ex­ ceed 12 cases had l>crn reported two days after oar contemporary's doleful visit to Hsstings. We dow make the following proposition : We will deposlte 9100, and the News a like sum in the Hastings national bank. If three men.

If oar state­ ment be true then we to withdraw our >100 and the bank to forward the News^>100 to the sufferers. Will the News accept I It will be noticed in the proposition that Bower’s wager is based entirely upon the word “reported.” The Mayor in his letter of the 15th. said be would have replied to our article sooner, but did nob wish to do so until he could have figures, which leads us to suppose that no reports had been made until that time. Accordingly we penned the following letter to Bowers: Naahville, Mich., Sept. 23,1881. Gao.E. Bowxm: Dear Bbotbkk;—Your proposition in the Banner has been duly noted, and I ask for farther information. If you desire to wager >100 that there had not been twelve cases of diphtheria In your city up to Sept. 1st, I shall be happy to accommodate you; but if you de­ sire to slide out ou the word •‘reported,” you want to distinctly understand that I am not green enough to entertain such a one-sided proposition. Yoon Fraternally, ORNO STRONG. The reply is as follows: Hastings, Mich., Sept. 22, 1881. Mv Dkab Strong Nobody ever thought. in my mind when tbe “proposition” was indit­ ed which Tintonded should Ibe perfectly plain. I am assured in my own mind tbit such is the case. Hastily and Fraternally GEO. E. BOWERS. And in thia unsatisfactory condition tho matter remains: Now we would like to aid in swelling the contribution to tbe fire sufferers, and will endeavor to make a proposition that the school boy editor can understand. Be has made the assertion that The News “lied about a corpse being slid into a bearae;”—now if he can substantiate that assertion, then our 8100 shall go to the file sufferers, if not, his.

The long agony is over at last. Af­ ter 80 days of intense suffering, which periodically reached a climax of phy­ sical anguish, which was borne with tbe calm heroism of a great soul, Jamefe A. Garfield, twentieth president of the United States, has passed quietly through that final ordeal which ends alike the pleasures of the happy, tbe woes of the miserable, the hopes of tbe ambitious, and the fears of die despair­ ing. Ffty millions of his countrymen have watched every changing phase of the battle be has waged with death, with prayerful anxiety. They have been like one great family around tbe death bed of a patriarch, and have shared al­ most instantly the clianging emotions of those who were bodily present at the White House and at Elberon, and the prolonged popular emotion during these weary weeks has left the popular heart almost incapable of farther grief. Tbe work which James A. Garfield did in his comparatively short life was wonderful. One of the youngest men ever elected president, he was surpassed by none in the wealth of his learning, and the richness of his ex­ perience. Boni in obscurity, be rose by force of indomitable will, superior to his adverse surroundings, aud . became in turns, teacher, legisla­ tor, General, Congressman, Senator and at the age of 49, President of the American Republic; and there was a fitness within him for every position to which he was called. There was much of promise, too, in the noble instincts with which he was endowed, and al­ together, there was large ro6m for tbe belief that his administration, before income to an end, would make its mark ns one of the most useful ‘in American history. But alas[ for tbe vanity of human expectation. The sun of prom­ ise which shone so brilliantly on the 4th of March, was beclouded in four short months, and has now gone out forever, and the aged woman, on whose brow the President pressed a filial kiss, and in whose heart there swelled tho fond devotion of a mother’s love, now mourns its loss, but there are also full hearts for those who were nearest and dearest to the illustrious dead. The public mingles its grief with theirs. His whole life is a striking lesson to the young. It teaches what can be ac ■ eoniplished by sturdy endeavor, by faithful work and by concentrated pur­ pose. His great success in life was due to his indomitable self-reliance, of which an extract from a short address to the students of Hiram college, illus­ trates. He said : “Poverty is uncom­ fortable, as lean testify; but nine times obtof ten, the best thing that can hap­ pen to a young man is to be tossed overboard and compelled to sink or swim for himself. Id alfmy acquaint­ ance I never knew a man to be drown ed that was worth saviag.” . James A. Garfield did not make the Presidency his aim in life; out he did purpose to succeed in every undertak­ ing ; he wrought with a strong will and unfaltering courage, and the Presi­ dency fittingly crowned his career.

It baa also recommended that all collections or congregations of people be avoided, many families have left the city, and others are seriously contemplating do­ ing likewise. —On Tuesday morning the sorrow­ ful news of the President’s death was announced on our streeta,and as soon aa the the news was confirmed, one com­ mon sentiment of grief was on the lipa of every person, irrespective of party.

There are some cold, proud women who in some unacooutiibte way have got into this world who would not bo affected by any such talk, but the number of these is. very, very few. Whether the Illinois woman was one of this rare kind or not is still a matter of dispute. It is also undecided whether she told the tailor he was a handsome num; she insists that,' being a truthful woman, she could not have done so conscientiously, while ho takes the op­ posite side of the question. There M, however, no controversy about the one point that he did kiss her, and after all this is the most important tiling. It is not certain just what was tho matter with this kins—whether it was not up to tho standard or whether there may not bo something peculiar about a tailor's kiss. But it is certain that tho laxly didn’t lose much time in telling her hus­ band about it, and tho husband lost no time in horse-whipping the tailor for doing just what ho had doubtless himself done a thousand times. In this way the matter became tho property of the public, for tho tailor proceeded against the hus­ band for assault Such a course is as strange as it is unusual, and if allowed to go on unrebuked must inevitably cut a tailor off from many of tho good tilings of this world.—Phil. 1'lmcs.

Fevers of > all kinds, ague and malaria, are among the most prevalent diseases in Russia— ; diseases which it is currently believed I haunt the country in the shape of invis- ■ ible women, who go from village to village und from house to house in search of some human being, in whom they mav conveniently take up their abode. There are said to be twelve such women, or sisters u they are some­ times called—that is, kinds of fever— who visit tbe patient separately. The first visitors are as a rule, only trouble­ some, not dangerous; but those that come later weaken him considerably, and tbe “twelfth sister" almost inva­ riably takes the patient’s life. By the latter name the peasants call the fever and night-sweats which are the usual symptoms of advanced, consumption. Each of these twelve' sisters is supposed to have a great di</ like to some special mode of treatment, and will at once leave the patient il K, should be resorted to. Thus, for ex­ ample, sister No. 1 is afraid of cutting instruments and sharp tools, and^iTTr* strongly recommended to surrounds the patient's bed with knives, axes, scythes, spades, saws, etc., which must be laid with their Sharp edges turned toward tbe door. A specific against sister No. 2 issn alcoholic extract of twelve kinds of wood, und sister No. 3 can be ex­ pelled by swallowing a large dose of gunpowder. The ninth sister dreads cold water above all things and will im­ mediately leave a patient who takes a cold bath. There are several other remedies against fever, out they lose their power if employed by the uninitiated. The following is rather a curious specimen: The village wizard or witch takes the patient by the band and leads him into the open fields. Here they look about for an ash-tree which must be a little taller than the patient. Tbe wizard then pnxluces his knife, cleaves the tree in two from top to the rout- Both halves of the top are then tied together with the patient's belt, and the quack holds the two lower parts of the trunk apart so as to form an opening, through which the patient creeps, having meanwhile divested himself of his clothing. His clothes are then handed to him one by one through the same opening; he dresses himself and is now considered to be cured of his ague. During the whole operation the wizard mutters cer­ tain mysterious words, which are sup­ posed to possess some miraculous pow­ er. Other popular remedies against fever and malaria are tobacco, tar and verdigris, andofjate years the peas­ ants have taken largely to use quinine. —Chambers' Journal.

In tbo Louisville Medical Herald of July the editor, wbo figures as best man, publishes the following: • “The relations of an editor with those to whom he Is accustomed to send monthly messages of cheer and counsel become, in time, very tender, and surely justify a generous personal confidence. So we beg our readers to give ns their confidence while we speak for a moment of home affairs: •* To our readers: Know ve that the life of a widower Is not a nappy one. The editor of the Herald, after much re­ flection, has resign the burden of widowerbood. He has been fortunate enough to negotiate a life partnership which will hereafter enable him to sit upon the editorial tripod in blissful ignorance of the number of garments on tne washing list for the current week, and the number of pieces mining. He shall henceforth be a stranger to tho business details of housekeeping. No more shall he spy thecobweb suspended from tbe ceiling; no more shall he at­ tempt to boss the seamstress and give instructions to the cook; no more shall he have to sit at the hotel dining-teble, waiting an hour for a cup of coffee. Per contra, life shall be worth living. The fires of the domestic happiness shall be rekindled upon the hearthstone. Tbe orphan children shall again have the care and the influence of a kind and gen­ tle mother. The benign influences of the home circle shall soon again irradi­ ate the atmosphere of this long-desolat­ ed household. Joy shall sit at tbe threshold so lon£ obscured by the gloom of affliction. The Herald, too, shall have a new life. It shall bud and blos­ som forth into the full fruitage of an un­ precedented popularity in the sacred precincts of the scientific world. Whilst it shall not be every man’s friend, it shall be no man's enemy. Whilst its independence shall never be questioned, its war department is hereafter find for­ ever abolished.

One evening, as thu youth was preparing to go out, hi*father asked him where he was going. “This evening, to the lodge," be re­ plied. “I hold an important office.” “Look you, my boy—I don’t know about thia I don’t half like it” The boy looked up in surprise. “Father, have you yetknown mo to come home from one of my meetings made you worse by the association? see that, let me know." “Aye—but Pm abed wl home—how do I know?” This impili'll distrust, though not meant, nettled the son. and he quickly returned; * “You go to bed early.

Oaiherino De Medici*, one of the French queens noted for vice and cruelty, was a victim to superstitious fears. Her public policy w as bold, and she was gen­ erally thought to be a wtnirui of great courage and unfailing resources. Her reign, and her subsequent ad­ ministration as Queen Mother to the voting king, w as a brilliant period iu the history of the French Court She fascinated strangers by her elegant man­ ners, and corrupted great slau-smeu by the wile* of court beauties. But tho great Queen wai a genuine coward. An astrologer attended her in the palace snd in all her journeys. She never engaged in any enterprise without consulting the stare, and after her death a great variety of amulets and charms were found on her person. In Lie last year of her life a great comet blazed in tbe heavens. It fright­ ened her terribly us an omen of coming death. It shone in the windows of the palace at a great feast, and she could not sit in quiet till all the shutters were closed, and tho gloomy portent wa* shut out OnCx while Dr. Samuel Johnson, the literary I mar, was talking verv learnedly, one of the company laughed Thoroughly indignant, Johnson turned on him and said, “What provokes your risibility, sir? Have I said auy thing that you can undexstand? If I nave, I ask pardon from the rest of the company." Charity is a first mortgage on every human being's possessions. Opportun­ ities are very sensitives tilings; if you slight them on their first visit, you seldom see them again. Tbs more virtu­ ous a man is, tho more virtue does he see in others. He who loves to read and knows how to reflect has laid by a perpetual feast tor his old age. THE WOMEN AT HOME. Our mother*, wire* and daughters! Home 1* not home at all without them .

Downing, for failure for neglect to remove a manure pile which the health officer had pronounced a nuisance, cre­ ated considerable excitement aud at­ tention on Thursday. A jury was cmpanneled,14 witnesses sworn, and about a dozen mathematicians called in to figure out the amount of malaria that is contained in a conical shaped dung heap. 13 feet in circumference and three and one-half feet in height. Theodore conducted the defense himself until the summing up of the case which was done by A. M. Flint. Th© jury render­ ed a verdict of guilty, and ho was fined five dollars and costs of prosecution. It is not probable that Mr. Downing intended to buck against the sanitary measures adopted by the board, in neg­ lecting to remove the nuisance. —Who can read the story of Damon and Pythias without dropping a tear!

Charley was not long in getting on the street and shouting fire.! fire ! at the top of his voice. The fire proved to be Mart.Steven’s cooper shop on Sherman St., and the whole upper story was in dames, which bad gained such a strong hold on the building that it was impossible to save it. Citizens came docking from every direction and the work was directed toward saving the tools and stock which was mostly carried to a safe distance before the roof of the building fell in. The total loss will amount to about $300. and came in the midst of a cooper’s harvest as the demand for barrels now is great­ er than at any other time during the year.

Last week's Hostings Journal is UP to its usual standard in the matter of exaggeration and falsehoods. It con­ tains on article written from Nashville, upon two cases of diphtheria, existing the fore part of lost wfcek, autTsome complimentary comments upon- the precautionary measures taken by our efficient board of health. The article in itself is all right, but the illustrious ambuigity who presides over that sheet has headed it with startling-head lines calculating to deceive and make the reader believe diphtheria was having as bad a run in this village as it is hav­ ing at Hastings,but it is an abortive at­ tempt as any one can plainly see by reading the article. The Jangle also contains several dirty dings at Nash­ ville that demand our attention. Read this one: Nsabville In very selfish. It desires to be tboaght*“big"town “big” tn enterprise, “big*1 In everything. We hope It win not however enlarge on Its diphtheria cases. It has enough now; any more might cause a panic. Chlorate of potassium is having a big hid, and the doc­ tors are kept busy looking down the throats of supposed victims of that fell disease, but the Nashville News does not mention it. “No, ft will hurt our business." Nashville is not selfish. She is will­ ing to accord Hastings and every other town all .the honor due them. She is “big” in enterprise however, and we have heard Hastings men say that die had more enterprise in one day than Hostings had in a week. In regard to diphtheria she bad two cases, as was winch were duly mentioned in The NgWr, but at the time the Journal was issued, not a case existed |n her limits Our beautiful village of Nashville is emphatically a healthy town.

You have, perhaps, saved my life; I ought, at least, to tell you who I am. My name is Jean Chevauchcux, and my father is a wood-splitter at Mezieres. Ho is an honest man, like in love with A BACK FOB A WIFE. I barn this story from a friend who was . dear to me. He related it to me one day as wo were talking on the hazards of life, more ustoiushing/inTd-. more romantic a hundred times, ttuui th ojinwi lions of fiction. ' He .bad' seen tKis little drama - devui'ip iteelf; Ifo still knew the actors in it. “1 will present you," ho said to mo, ’ “aud we will go together to Mezieres, where we will find one of. the heroes of this narrative still living. All tho ro­ mances have not yet bean written; the most marvelous have still to be pub­ lished. And who knows how many ro­ mances each one of us takes away with him pn^oundly buried ih the secrecy of Ilia couscainces painfully smothered un­ der th-> tombstone?” Eugono Decary did not know how true his thirds were, and the story of Jean Chovauchetix was tlie List that ho told me. It is ho who ’rill tell yon'tho story. . My father used to live at Bethel, in the high street, in a house I can still see before my eyes with ita slate roof and projecting beams, a hospitable house if ever there was one. Poor folks new the way to it. , They entered with their wallet'empty and went away with it fulL We were all seated one night at the fire­ side; my father wdh smoking liis pipe and watching the fire burn, my mother was ironing, and I was reading, when we heard a noise at the door, and saw enter a boy with frightened looks. “What is the matter?" “It is a soldier very tired who haa just fallen exhausted before the door." My fat bur loved soldiers. He rose brusquely, ran out, and there he was, before I had taken a step, coming in again* with a young soldier leaning upon him, or, T-.ither, xny tether had token him up and was carrying him like a sack of corn. mother hastened to draw the big arm-chair up to the fire. The soldier was made to sit, or rather recline in it, and my father said, looking hi the poor follow: “la it possible! Walking in that state?" The fact is that the soldier was very ■ thin and pale, his hair flattened on his forehead, the veins of his temples big as Suur little filler. Ids face black with ust. We were then in the month of October, and tho weather wu beginning to grow fresh, but the poor fellow was ncvertlieles&s sweating big drops as if it had lieen dog days. He must have had a long tramp. His shoe were in shreds; you could see where the stones had torn Che leather; the left foot was bleeding. Tno soldier did not move, but remained iu the arm-chair, with his hbsd thrown buck, his eyes half open and white as a sheet. Mt mother had already put some soup on the tiro aud a panini of wine. “Bah," said my father, “tbe first thing to be looked after is tho feet” And, kneeling down. ht> began to tear and cut away the shreds of leather. The soldier's feet, all swollen, and full of blisters, looked like tho feet of tbe mart>rs, swollen with pain and weakened by hard curds, which wo see in the pic­ tures of the Spanish painters. My father dipped his handkerchief in vinegar and washed the wounds. “You,” he said to me, “make some lint” And I began to tear up some old linen that my mother had taken out of tho uig cupboard. Meanwhile the soldier had come to himself. He looked at us, at my father, my mother, and myself, and the two or three neigbliors who had come in, one after the other. His wandering eyes seemed to interrogate everything. It was no longer the road, the stones, the great deserted woods that he saw before him, but a gay r ••■. with a ceiling of‘ the table, knife ahining oak. a cl<»b and fork laid, aiid a ..tWM ______________ earthenware K.'.ip-bowl ^emitting a savory smell of oebbage soup. Then be raised himself up, leaning on the erms of the chair, and said to my fst!.cr, with confused emotion: “Ah! Monsieur. But you do not know me.” “Ah! well, that does not matter; we will become acquainted at the tabla.” We bad already dined, but my father wished to Lear the soldier company. He Mt down io tabte opposite him, aa it itoca that shone on his r ate, and ate beartilv; him. My father took • father, suddenly, tether had not said no; but, you see, Pierre Puvioux had asked her in mar­ riage at the same time that I did. Pierre Puvioux is a man of my age, who carries Ills heart in his hand, as the saying is; gay and well-looking. I ought to have detested him, and he has remained my friend. Wall, Father Servan said to me aa be held out lite hand: * “ ‘You are worthy to be my son-in-law, my lad; but first of all you must please my daughter. I will ask her. ’ “Marguerite, whan asked, said that she would gladly consent to be my wife. But ahe said the same when they talked to her •about Puvioux. She loved both of us, one as much as the other; she hesitated—she did not dare to decide. But still ahe could not marry both of us. “Timo went on.' When the time of Puvioux and I, on tho same day. I had No. 3 and he had No. 7, and so we both of us liecame soldiers. For a moment I was iu a state of great fright, I confess. People at Mezieres said that Puvioux inula rich aunt, and that she would buy him off. If Puvioux did not.join tiie »: tny, Puvioux would marry Marguerite, nul I, knowing that I should be obliged f.»Ro«in, for I was poor. I thought I •*lrva»ly. heard the fiddler at tbe wedding, rending my cars and my heart." “I must tell you that Marguerite Servan has not her equal. If I lost her now, after having waited seven years for her, upon mv honor, I think I should blow out my brains. “Luckily, Pierre Puvioux was not bought off. His aunt died, leaving debts instead of a fortune. He had not a pen­ ny any more than I had. We were obliged to shoulder our guns, and we were expected ou our .way-bill every moment One night Father Servan took us each by tho arm and led us to an inn, and this is what he said to us as we emptied a Ixittle of Moselle wine: “ ‘My boys, you are good and honest Atdennais, equal in merit I love you with all my heart Ono ul you shall be my son-in-law; that is understood. Mar­ guerite will wait sevan years. She has no preference either tor you, Puvioux, or for you, Chevaucheux, but she loves both of you, and she will make happy the one whom fortune shall choose. These are tho conditions on which one of-you shall marry my daughter; you start on the same day, it is proliable that you re­ turn on the’ same day. Well, the one who first cornea and shakes hands with Father Servan, and says: “Her# I am, my time is out;" ha, I swear, shall be the husband of Marguerite;' “I was astonished; I thought that I had misunderstood. I looked at Pierre Puvioux and he looked at nfe, and, al­ though wo were «sd enough at heart, wo ing. ) . “But Father Servan was not joking. He had discovered this means of getting out of tho difficulty, and he meant to stick to it I held out my hand, and sworo to net neither by ruse or violence, and to let Pierre Puvioux marry Mar­ guerite, if he returned to Mezieres be­ fore I did. Pierre stood up and swore the- same, and than wo shook hands while Father Servan said: “•Xow, tho rest is your affair. The only thing is to escape bullets and to re­ turn safe and sound.* “He filled our glasses onoe more, and we drank a parting draught “Before leaving, I wished to see Msrguerite. Jus^as I was arriving under her window—it was at dusk—I saw some one in th^ shade coming in the same di­ rection. I Htopped short It was Pierro Puvioux. He seemed vexed to find mo there. I whs not particularly pleased to meet him. We stood there for a mo­ ment like two simpletons looking at the • toes of our boots. Then with a ■ move­ ment of courage I said to Puvioux: “ ‘Shall wo go in together ?' “We entered and took our farewell of Marguerite. She listened to us without saying anything, but there wore tears at the-tijw of her blonde eye-lashes. Sud­ denly Pierre, who was talking, stopped And began to Bob and I to do the same, fhen Marguerite joined in, and there wo were all three shedding tears and pressing each others hands. “When the diligence that took us away from Mezieres began to rattle on the pavement the next day, I felt ineiined to tijrew myself down from the imperial and gel crushod under tho I-. Tbe more so as then; was a Umainer at my aide who was singing in * melancholy voice a song of his coun­ try, and I said to myself: ‘It is all over Jean, you will never see her again.’ “Well, you see, time passes.

One of the most important and valu­ able cattle foods is the waste of the miller. This consists of the refuse husk. or skin of the grain that is left when wheat is. ground and bolted into flour. This waste product has become a staple CASH PAID FOR BUTTER & EGGS. C. W. GRANGER Jlashrilk Jtrtrtvru. product of wheat is made into flour at home, and .the remainder only is ex­ ported whole, and that the waste i* equal to twenty per cent, we have the equivalent of 60,000,000 bushels of wheat, or 8,600,000 pounds of these wastes available for cattle food. It is very well worth while, therefore, to in­ vestigate the actual feeding va’uo of these wastes, because they vary iu kind and in quality. In fact there is much local ignorance and misapprehension in regard to these substances,' for they are not even recognized by name in many places. We have bran, coarse and fine, coarse and fine middlings, shorts, sharps, mill stuffs, ship stuff* and mill feed. Some of these are synonymous, and with some of them there is an im­ portant difference in quality according to the variation in the process of manu­ facture. . For in the old process of mill­ ihg much less flour is taken out of the grain, and much, more of the flour is left in the waste • than in the new proc­ ess. The -modern improvement* in milling, such as the middlings purifiers and double and treble grindings, take out all tho flour that is possible by the ingenuity ot the miller and the mechanic, but they leave the most valuable part for cattle foods. Bran, the shelly, outer husk, is gener­ ally known everywhere by that name. Course middlings, sharps and shorts are used to designate the mixed produet, which consists of the finer portions of the <jran and the coarsest part of the meat Middlings is a coarse meal-like product, dark, and yet free from bran, excepting that portion of it which has been finely broken upin the old system of close grinding. Fine middling* is more like coarse flour; qnd is often used ns such by tho poorest purchasers, to whom the low price is an inducement to use this coarse food. Mill stuffs is an Eastern term applied to the whole of the m Iler’s wastes bundled and mixed together, and including bran and middlings of all grades. The “ fine feed” of Boston i* equivalent to tho coarse middlings and sharps of other localities. “ tihijMituflb” is identical with mill-stuflK, and is a localism prev­ alent in the South and WestAll these products are on the market, ^and offered at the most reasonable prices to farmers and dairymen.

Colorado, at present, to theschne of th© greatest gold and silver mining enterprise the world has ever known. Wo refer to the Atlantic-Pacific Tuun«l,of which mention has heretofore been made in The News. In the latter part of 1880, Mark M. Pomeroy, of Denver,—who had woAed himself to the front as a mining ex­ pert, and won, soon after, the reputa­ tion of beiog the leading mining oper­ ator of Colorado, argqing that it was. cheaper, better and more rapid to dig into a mountain, from the base, cutting mineral veins at right angles, working them to the right and left and breaking the ore from ovey-head, draw the v, and market on a car/ than iRwaa to climb a moun­ tain,digging down upon a vein laboriously haul, by windlass, the on­ to the top, aud then the equally expen­ sive aud laborious task of getting it down the mountain again for ship­ ment-conceived tbe project of catting a tunnel nine feet wide and seven and a half feet high through the Rocky Mountain*. The site selected was nt a point where tbe lino of mountainsnre narrowest and veins of gold and silver are the thickest; the east end com­ mencing at a . point near the base of Kelso mountain, 8 miles south-west from Georgetown, which is 50 miles from Denver, and the west end at De­ catur on the Snake river. Thus it will be seen that the tunnel punches a hole clear through the back-bone of the Con­ tinent, uniting the Atlantic and Pacific slopes, and that too with traversing a distance of only four and eight-ninths miles. On the 25th of October, 1880, the At­ lantic Pacific Tunnel Co., was organ ized undhr the laws of Colorado. It wan authorized tn issue 700,000 shares of stock at the par value of $10 per share. Of this number 300,000 shares have been set apart with which to parchaac veins, rights, sights and properties that will be cut by the tunnel; 300.000 shares for the obtaining of controlling inter­ ests in other companies that have good properties off the line of tho tunnel, and the remaining 800,000 shares to be sold for cash to defray the expenses of driving the tunnel, buying roachineiy, erecting buildings, etc. Od the Oth of Nov., 1880, the first sale of stock—four shares—was made, and on the 12th of Nov., work was com­ menced on thia great, enterprise, at the east end, and lias been progressing, as well os at the west end of the tunnel— which was commenced a few months afterwards—day aud night up to the present time. At the east end toe tun­ nel is in over 500 feet, and at the west end nearly the same distance. Al­ ready the west end has cut three valu­ able veins, either of which are estimat­ ed by good judges to be worth more than the entire outlay of time and money on the tunnel. One of them shows nearly throe feet of mineral worth $100 per ton, and could be sold any day for $200,000, more than double the total amount already expended by the company in developing the project. It is confideutally expected that tiefore New Years two more rich veins will have been cut, and thus the good work will go on until the stock of the company shall roach par, and then pass on beyond that point. The tannel cats through Kelso Mountain, Irwin’s peak, Gray’s peak and Ruby mountain, all noted for their rich mineral veins. Upwards of 200 known silver veins that oat-crop at the surface, will be cut by this tannel, and cutting them, as it will, at a great depth, the ore taken from them, follow­ ing tbe invariable rale, will be of won­ drous rich new. The magnitude of this enterprise is greater than can easily be Conceived. Just think of all those numerous rich veins of gold, silver and lead, composing the rich mineral belt of America, st concentrated in a narrow range, aud cut by a tunnel less than five miles long. This gigantic enterprise has die en­ dorsement of. Dot only the beat mining men of Colorado, but of the United States. Mr. Ten Eyck, of Utah, one of the best mining experts and geologists in this'country, of Emma mine fame, recently visited the A.-P. Tunnel, at Ute request of New York parties, and pronounced it the greatest mining en­ terprise tho world ever saw or heard of;! that the tunnel would cat the great mother mineral licit of tbe Continent, extending from Washington territory to Mexico, as you would cux through n line of granaries ; that it would cross­ cut the great trunks or ore bodies, which coaid lie worked to the right and loft all the way -in mineral; that bo coiwidercd it far ahead of the great Sntro tunnel, and nn enterprise that njiisf the w*y to condnou?, mcn-xtng streams profit. .Qlhei milling exports bmto given- their opin­ ion in regard to the enterprise, which Wth. contoius aa article on this enterprise, which wm written by a member the reportorial atall', who is located near tho west end of tbe tunnel.

Rev. Snyder, who has bad two cases in his family, says both are convalescent, and there are only one or two other light cases reported, and in all probability by another week no cases will exist. Only one ease has prdved fatal, that of Mrs. Hartman, who died of diphtheria and other causes combined. The rigid sanitary measures adopted by the Board of Health have kept tho disease checked. Vcngenoe, which alone belongs to the Lord,filled the breast of the widow,and she flew to the rescue of her corn, run down one of the little destroyers, and, seizing it by the ears, tail or legs, hur­ ried away to her pig pen where she de­ posited the intruder for future use She immediately returned and secured another prize before any of the Coxes camo to the rescue. Cox was exceeding Wroth at this proceeding,and puffed and foamed like Vesuvius, and swore that legal vengence should be swift on the track of the widow. Refusing to pay a dollar to redeem the pigs, he sped away to Nashville, whore he sought counse], and called on Esq. Potter for a summons, which was duly issued. Without further explanation, we re­ mark, that the cause camo to trial Oct., Sth, when six men, "good and true,” listened tn the testimony of the wit­ nesses, the ran tings, pleadings and arguments of the lawyers, and the de­ cisions of the “jedge,” with great pat­ ience, during several long hours, and in live minutes after they were depriv­ ed of meat and drink, they reached a conclusion, and returned .with a ver­ dict, of "no cause of artion.” Cox was chagnnned,aud the widow jnbilant.because she retains possession of the pigs, and has the prestige of victory. Cox refpses to bo comforted, and says the case will come up in circuit court where he will recover the worth of the pigs, and justice be satisfied. All of which exemplifies the picture we once saw of two men, who were quarreling over a cow. One had her by the horns, the other by the tail, while a lawyer sat quietly drawing the most valuable substance from her into a milk pail. y—A. W.

Some individuals will fail to produce buds in thu regular place, or will push out ahoou where they do not belong, in such cases, one who understands the ruonuer of growth will know what to do with the vine; ha eaa treat each indi­ vidual according to its special needs. On the other hand he who blindly fol­ lows directions, is “all at sea,” when he meets with these exceptional vines. Inthe nature of the case there can be no invariable rule. It is well to adopt some aystem or matbod of training and endeavor to follow it aa near as may be, but when some accident, or suae pecul­ iarity of a particular vine breaks up the system, we must know howto make the beet of it We once beard the Ute Mr. Knox, a reoet suocomful grape grower, when asked what system of training he followed, reply: “That which will best keep my trellis filled with bear­ ing canes," which was merely another way of saying: “I treat every vine as it seems at the time to require.** In all methods of training certain points are recogniz­ ed, and certain things must be done in alL When in our spring “ Notes about Work." wo advise to pinch the growing shoot and allow one to three leaves above the uppermost cluster of flower buds to remain, we give directions that are ap­ plicable to all vines; whether the vine is trained according to a system, or lias been allowed to run hap-hazard over an arbor, this checking the fruiting shoot will be beneticial. This opera­ tion should have been done as early as tho growth of the shoot allowed the number of clusters and leaves to be dis­ tinctly seen. When this check is given to the growth of tho shoot in length, the remaining leaves will soon develop to a greater size and firmness, and later on shoots that have been allowed to grow at will. In tho suqpner treat­ ment of the vine, we wish to supple­ ment this pinching for the benefit of the fruit, or if the vine has not been thus treated, de what we can for next year's crop Soon after a leaf has be­ come well developed, two small buds will appear in its "axil,” or on the shoot just where the leaf stalks joins it. One o! these buds will soon push to form a side-shooter or " lateral?’ while the other bud will vemaiu dormant un­ til next year. We stop the growth of laterals for the same reason that we did the further elongation of the main shoot— to aid the development of the fruit, or upon shoots wheto there is no fruit, to increase the sise and strength of the shoots themselves. Tendrils ap;>car opposite each leaf where there is not a bunch. A young tendril is soft and may be removed by a pinch; when ripe it is almost as hard as wire and becomes a nuisance in after pruning. In training our vines we use a trellis with upright wires, and prefer to remove all tendrils and keep the shoots tied up. With horizontal wires it is customary to allow them to re­ main. where they will be of use in hold­ ing up the shoot, though we think it would save troable to remove them and use ties of soft cotton cord. Chance shoots will often break through the bark on the old vine stems appearing here and there without any regular order. It may happen that such a shoot will be useful to fill a gap; if so let it be tied up to the trellis. As a general rule sucu shoots skoald be rubbed off as thev appear. It is often necessary to grow a shoot this year to form a cane from* which we may get bearing shoots next season. These when they are three feet lonf should be-pinched a«. the end and have, their laterals treffled as has been de­ scribed above. The vises should bo sulphured st the first appearance of grayish spots on the under side of the leaves. Bellows are sold at the seed and other stores for the use. The majority of insects that at­ tack the vine at this season are large and may be removed rapidly by hand­ picking.—American Agriculturist.

A. AYLSWORTH The Settlement of an Aligned Estate —A Remarkable Case. The final proceeding in the matter of the Frank Leslie assignment was taken in New York City a few days ago. An order was entered acquitting Afr. Isaac W. England, the assignee, from all further obligation to the trust, and dis­ charging and releasing the bondsmen who had become his sureties in the sum of one hundred thousand dollars, and canceling their bond. The case has been a remarkable one, and, it is said, probably stands unparalleled in the ju­ diciary history of New York State. It is peculiar in that it probably is the only instance on record where an as­ signed estate, instead of being sold in accordance with tho provisions of the aeaigument, has been carried on by the Msignee in the interest of the creditors for a period of nearly four years. The experiment was a hazardous one, but in this case it seems to have been attended with the best results. The estate at the time it came into the possession of the assignee was inventoried nt seventy-five thousand dollars, and was encumbered by debts amounting to about four hun­ dred thousand dollar^.

The bath had always been free before; why wasn’t it free now? But Dr. Black soon made her believe that the bath had always belonged to to his feBow-birds. Bbt from the road THE STORY OF A BAD BIRD. It is painful to think that any bird could really wicked; for birds—esiways CM if theirjat little breasts grew so because there were warm little hearts inside. And a bird haa a way of looking you straight in the face with his bright little eye, that makes you believe he is honest and is not ashamed of it. Birds have made a splendid tecord in the world. 1 never knew a bird to .tell a lie, except­ ing this bad bird, and certainly no bird was ever known to rob a bonk or forgo a check. But, sad as it to think so, there have been birds, and this one, whose story I am about to tell, was so very bad that, in fairness to other birds, it should be understood that he was very unlike them. The fact is, he was a downright cheat. He was nothing but a common blackbird, who had never been to school a day in his life, and yet he set himself up for a bird-doctor, called himself Dr. Black, and put on all sorts of medical airs. He even went so far os to pretend that he was a crow, and had studied medicine, and been made a doctor at the Tkmous Crow College out West, al­ though he had never so much u seen it. Perhaps you have never heard of Crow College before? Well, that is not strange, for if 1 had not had some very highly-educated birds among my friends I believe I should never have heard of it mvself. A great deal depends upon the kind of birds you associate with. It is a college where crows study to be doctors. (The bird-doctors are always crows—did you* know that?) There are forty teachers in the college, all of them crows, very learned and very black, and the head of the faculty is a solemn old raven, who came over from the Raven University in Arabia just to be the bead of this 'college. He is so old that he can't remember Low many hundred years it is since he was boro, and, as he has never been known to open his mouth, excepting to cat, he is believed by everybody to be wonder­ fully wise. ’ Tie college classes meet in tho upper branches of the trees in a great West­ ern forest. If you passed by there you would think, of course, that it was merely a flock of noisy crows chatter­ ing together. But it you could see up to the tops of the trees you vould see the old raven dozing, with his specta­ cles on his nose, and the teachers explaining, all at once, about the bones and veins of birds and their tiny diseases, and ail the classes studying hard, like good little crows. But there is one sad thing about the Crow College. Crow-doctors have trouble sometimes in getting paid, and, as crows must live, there is one crow­ professor Who gives his whole time to teaching the best way to steal corn. And I am sorry to add that the corn­ class is always the largest class of all. The way Dr. Black set himself up in practice will show you what a clever little rogue he was. Have you ever seen Stuyvesant Square in New York? A good many of you must have seen it It is one of the oldest parks in the city; St. George's Church stands beside it, and away up in the great towers of the church the clock strikes every few min­ utes, with agentle. friendly sound, os if it were telling the children playing be­ low that another quarter of an hour has gone, and they must enjoy all the hours and minutes that are left. In this pleasant old park there is a fountain, and in the fountain there is a little raft of wood about a foot square. This raft is anchored with a stone, and one end runs under the water just enough to Set tbe birds skip down upon it into the water and have a splendid bath, and skip back upon the ary part of the board. Now it so happened that the park policeman was putting a new raft in its place when Dr. Black came flying over the park. That caught his wicked Httle eye, and he stopped; he alighted on a tree right at the edge of the lountaiu and seemed to be thinking very hard. It was a sign that he was doing this when he scratched himself as near to his head as ho could get his foot, and he scratched himself several times. Finally, when his mind seemed to be made up, and the policeman bad gone away. Dr. Black flew down to the board and stood on it. Meanwhile, be care­ fully stroked his feathers until he eat. Hare tbe little humbug turned away from Mrs. Sparrow, ana worked his shoulder* up and down in such a way that she, kind-hearted little thing, thought he was , sobbing hard. The truth was be was winking to himself at the thought of bls own smartness, and thinking what a soft-hearted little lady bird de was. Well, every year every man. in New York who owns a house pays some money to the city. This is what is called paying taxes. When all the money has been put together, the Mayor and the other city officers meet and make up their minds how it must be spent Some of it goes to pay the firemen—the brave men who put out fires and save people's lives; some of it to pay the policemen; some of it to pay men for keeping the streets clean; some of it for the meat the lions and tigers eat in Central Park, and seme of it for the Itttle baths for tbe sparrows. So, you see that when Dr. Black said be had been paid for that bath, ho bad told what the boys cali .a "whopper.” ’ But little Mrs. Sparrow believed it all. Dear me! Sparrows never will be ablo to understand polities. She flew to her friends and told them all about Dr. Black. She said that be charged very little for the use of the bath. He would take worms, or pieces of cake or bread, or almost anything good to eatYou see, the Doctor was hungry, al­ though he didn't tell Mrs. Sparrow so. She said. too. that he was »splendid doctor, and when her husband, Mr. D. Thomas Sparrow, asked her how she knew, she said that she wasn’t going to be talked to as if she were a mere child and didn't know anything. She knew he was a splendid doctor. Anyhow, he had beautiful black eyes! What do you suppose happened? There was a most alarming outbreak of sickness among the birds. They had been the healthiest, sturdiest sparrows in the world before—fat and chubby, and with tremendous appetites. But now there were invalids on all sides, amoifg the lady-sparrows. And so, sly Dr. Black soon had all the pa­ tients he wanted, and all the fees he could eat. He became the fashion, and no lady-sparrow felt that she was doing her duty to society unless it was known that "he was her physician. The gentleman-sparrows of the Square made a great deal of fun about all this. They didn't believe in Dr. Black, and said so, and very few of them went to his bath. It was a strange scene in the mornings when Dr. Black received his patients. He looked so wise and grave, and pushed the little birds into the water with such a polite way, and made such handsome bows when they paid him his crumbs. Mean­ while, the • nurses and children who were in the park would be very much astonished to see fifteen or twenty little gentlemen sparrows sitting around the edge of the fountain and trying to sneer. Yes. to sneer, it is not an easy thing to do, for the guntlemnn-Hparrow is usually a good-natured, nice little fel­ low'. When he does try to sneer, the effect is very dreadful, and if you had been there, you also might have been astonished. But one morning there was a new sensation among the sparrows in 8tuyvesant Square. A young gentleman­ sparrow. who had been a groat traveler, had arrived, and there was as much of a stir in the best sparrow circles as an English Duke or a French nobleman could make in higher society. You see, these city sparrows usually stay in the park where they are born”. Very few of tho birds in Stuyvosaut Square knew that there was any world beyond Thin! Avenue, and so when-this young gentle­ man came who had crossed the city five times to the Battery, and had once actually spent a whole hummer in New Jersey, he was looked upon as a sort of explorer, and treated with great respect. They called him Sir. Jersey Sparrow, as a nice way of reminding people how far he had traveled. But he took care that nobody should ever forget it. He was always talking of the strange places ho had seen, and spoke Sparrow lan­ guage with a foreign accent; and the way he turned out Bis toes was almost French. He was a very vain little bird, and it vexed him to hear all the lady-sparrows, who seemed to admire him, talking so much about this Dr. Black. Secretly, his little breast filled with envy of Dr. Black, who was said to be such a handsome crow and such a So, one morning, Mr. Jersey Spar­ row appeared at the fountain. " Why,” said he, ••he’s not a crow! ▲ crow is three times as big as that!” Dr. Black was a little frightened, for fipectable that you would have said and tried to look a* if bethought it he wu a bird-doctor the minute not worth while to notice this 1 hle Inrda alive. nwrwoodea—vibrantIy finUhad.

To these small weddings and receptions come the same set over and over again, and a person who attends them soon learns to know their faces and name*. “ As to personal treatment, the gueste at the assemblies I have attended have always treated me with courtesy, and I do not sec how thoy couM have done otherwise, eroa when they knew my business, for I never sought acquaintahip, while I have always been willing to talk on any subject I knew anything about, and I never ask questions about matters that don't concern me.” Stories su*e told by detectives of ladies, whose families are of the highest reBpoctability, whom they have pointed out to tho givers of entertainments as having stolen valuable present*. In several cases related to the reporter, the valuables were recovered under threats of arrest, and scandals resulted. In otben the heat wm unwilling to make accusations, preferring to avoid the scandal that would follow an exposure. In one case a lady fainted when she wm accused. She would not confess, and paratively tame to exorcise them in what they are deficient, and to foster their most'meager abilities. Yet until educa­ tors acquire the necessary self-control and patience to do the latter; until they can work quietly and steadfastly without display, and fix their alm on future re­ sults instead of present glitter, the most premising children will continue to sink down into inferior men and women. The qualities that are tho most attrac­ tive in childhood are not by any means the most valuable in maturity. We look for determination, will, decision ot character, firmness in the man, and re­ fuse him oar respect if he have them not. Bat when th® child exhibits these qualities, even ia their Incipient stages, we are annoyed, and, perhaps, repulsed. Instead ot ruioicing in his strength of will and guiding Itinto right ohanaeis, we lament it m a grievous fault la him aad a misfortune to us. It is the meek and yielding ehtid who cares not to de­ cide anything for himself, in whom we delight, aad whore feeble will we make still fsebltir by denying it all exercise. Yet, when bo grows up and enters tlie world and yields to temptation, and, perhaps, disgraces himself and his family, wo look at him in im­ becile wonder that so good a child should have turped out to be so bad a man, when, in truth, his course has only been tho natural outcome of his past life and training. The power of standing firm and going alone we know to be desirable in the ddult, but the child seems more lovable who is utterly dependent upon us, and we therefore stnvc to cherish this dependence, shuU ting our eyes that we are thus actually unfitting him for tho life that awaiu him. Concentration, too, is a quality that wo admire in tho adult, bat greatly undervalue in the child. We prefer that he may be easily drawn away from what he is engaged in, and quick­ ly turned from one thing to another at our pleaiure; and while we praise him for his ready obedience, or rebuke him for seeming absorbed, wo are really breaking down the power of cenoentration and depriving him of its invaluable results. It is true that many things oro suita­ ble for manhood that art not for child­ hood, but this is not tho case with men­ tal and moral qualities. If it were there could be lio such thing as consistent preparation for a good and useful life. Every quality that too man or woman noeds is incipient in the child aud needs development and exercise. Our part in his training is not to cherish in him sim­ ply what is most attractive to oarselves, or what feeds our’own and his vanity, but rather to study his future needs and to help him to supply what is most lack­ ing. It is where be is deficient, not where he excels, that our carnc»t <_Iforts are demanded. Not until parent* and teachers realize this so fully as to identi­ fy with it their highest interest a’nd pleasure in their charges will promis­ ing children fulfill their promises, and tho question no longer be naked, •• What has become of themF” Brevity not Clearness.

Nature, it was found, would produce certain results if certain conditions were complied with, and breed Ing was reduced to an abso­ lute science. Previous to this it wm all a good big doctor’s bill, though perhaps . I ........ not the bill of... a good big doctor, jjig Zeile himself evidently thonghi b'll big enough, for after fighting for | • the tfiff.OOO in tbe coarte he has con-. j rented to deduct a matter of $48,000 uud to be satisfied with a paltry 15,000 for his year’s doctoring. There, an* cattle other doctors who would be well pleas­ were reduced to pigmies; selection was ed with three or four such patients th® exception ana not the rule, and a' yearly m the late Mr. Ldck. The magnificent breeds of cattle which have now taken tbe place of the scrub are the result of an intelligent applica­ tion of the laws of nature to breeding. It Hm been learned that * large, fine­ ly developed animal can be produced m easily m one that is small and Is sharply angled. , ' But we have more easily learned how to produce than wo seem to have learned how to develop. The apparent belief that beef is beef and that quality is absolutely a secondary matter gen­ erally prevails. Breeder and consumer alike are strangely indifferent to qual­ ity. Tbe slop fed animal finds oppo­ nents only among the comparatively few. Ignorance and recklessness are the great fertile cause of tons of miser­ able, almost uneatable beef in the mar­ ket Intelligence in feeding or judg­ ment in buying would largely decrease the supply of this kind of meats. "With too many—we dislike to say the major­ ity, although it is true—pounds are what is aimed at in the fattening proc­ ess, and it makes no sort of difference what the quhlity is. If an animal would lay on flesh from eating old fence rails, fence rails would be the food fed, if they were more handy than anything else. It does not seem to occur that there is a difference in food with tho re­ spect to the quality of meat. There are hundreds ot sheep breeders in the coun­ try who e'ither doubt that there is any difference in tbe quality of mutton pro­ duced on weeds, or poor grass, and .that produced in Jthe blue grass regions of Kentucky, or wonder why it is. The question of. food is an important one. and is second in importance to no questiop connected with the subject of breeding. That it is not universally properly understood is shown by the douDts sometimes expressed by dairy­ men of long experience that the food has any effect ujwn the quality ot milk, a statement whose erroneousuoss can be easily* established. Nature, in the construction of an animal, must lay the foundation for a fine quality of beet We cannot make a spring chicken out at an antiquated rooster, whatever wo may feed him on; and we cannot make sweet, juicy beef out of an animal that nature never intended to produce such meat But, with a good foundation and with good feed, we accomplish the de­ sired result- lu the selection of the kind of food its digestibility is the first thing to be taker, into consideration, the reasons for which we need hardly stop to explain, simply stating that the more digestible a. food is. the better it is. In the next place it will be neces­ sary to remember that coarse fodders, produced under different circum­ stances and in different locations, rre not always chemically the same. Soil of natural quxHly and fertility, for instance, will have a very marked influence upon tho chemical properties of coarse fodders. Tharuud made an analysis of hay from a ma­ nured meadow, and of the same kind of hay from on® that wm unmanured, finding in the first, twelv? per cent, of protean and from the second only nine per cent Mockern analyzed rank plants of wheat, barley, oats and rye, at the beginning of flowering, and found 16.4 per cent of protean in tbe dry mat­ ter, while weaker plants contained only 10.4 per cent. It will not do, therefore, to conclude that blue grais, or clover, or any other variety is the most perfect kind of coarse food, simply because they are what they are. Tbe conditions un­ der which they are grown must be taken into consideration, and the lesson learned that tho most perfect grasses are produced upon the* best soils. Un­ der such circumstance< all of the grass­ es commonly grown are good for tho production of beef, and if some are superior to others but will not do as well on our soil or in our climate as others, we must adopt the best under tho circumstances, and submit to the disadvantages. Tbe mode of curing hay haa a vast deal to do with its digestibility and nutritive properties. It scarcely need be suggested that the younger and more tender a fodder is. the smaller general­ ly is the percentage of crude fiber, and the more digestible the crude fiber is. This certainly appeals to the judgment, and if it did not, experiment has dem­ onstrated it. Yet it is a fact that many Krsist in cutting grasses long after ay have obtained a reasonable ma­ turity, and. what is more, they argue that it is best to do so. The same proc­ ess of reasoning would establish in a dying tree more vitality than a thrifty, growing tree possesses. After cutting, the graM is frequently cured to death, a large portion of its value drfbd and burnt out of it. Grass never should be allowed to dry a moment longer or to a degree further than is absolutely nec­ essary to insure its preservation. It is not only a waste ot time to do more than this, but it is a waste of nutritive isterial.—IFrstem Rural. His Ow^ Ceta^ ■ .

They are the product of long, laborious, and successful chemical investigation, and their extensive use, by physicians In their practice, and by all civilized na­ tions,’ proves them the best and most effectual purgative Pill that medical science can devise. Being purely veg­ etable no harm can arise from their use. and being sugar-coated, they arc pleasant to take. In Intrinsic value and curative powers no other Pills can be compared with them; and every person, knoyring their virtues will employ them, when needed. They keep the system in perfect order, and maintain in healthy notion tne whole machinery of Hfc.

Sofao people imagine that because there are not many fanners in tbe bankrupt list things cannot be so bad, bnt they for­ get that farmers cannot start in the world like some mushroom traders do, ujftin borrowed capital or none at all. They-Hiust expend money in advance aud then nViihlDwe what nature will do few them. They have not had a thoroughly good harvest for several yean, and competition has injured them to a far greater extent than tiro manufactures and shop keepers.'^Tfie Fanners’ Alliance is the title of the new association of British fanners, andthey have had a meeting and made state-mentB which appear reasonable. They maintain that until tbe arrangements between landlord and tenant are mod­ ified there can be no hope for the the British farmer, and wo quite believe them. One fact must not bo forgotten. There arc numbers of gentlemen who from thennere love of being land own­ ers cultivate farms with every appear­ ance of prosperity. But it must be remembered those are men who do not live by the land alone. They have ample measures, land if the farm only enables them to lire rent-free they are satisfied, but the case is different with tho small tenunl farmers who embark their capital on the land in the hope of making it a remunerative occupation. Such men are greatly to be pitied, and none need be surprised if they claim the aid of Government to redress their grievances. People living away from the great agricultural district have little idea how some of these honest, worthy, and hardworking men are ground down. Bnt they are silent, be cause hitherto, if Smith showed the least dissatisfaction, his landlord made overtures to Brown, Jones and Robin­ son who had been perhaps waiting for years to get bold of the farm. Matters are altered now. There vtasn time when a good farm was a certain for­ tune if well managed. At present, what with bad seasons and heavy bur­ dens on tbe land must be content with smaller incomes when their property lies away from the great towns. Tbe agitation for an English Land Bill will I am sure, become general during the present winter. The murder in the Brighton Railway has not been mnoh discussed of late, as people are awaiting the trial of Lefroy, but on Monday a discover? was made by a gang of platelayers three-quarters of a mile south of the Balcombe Tun­ nel which may be of some importance. Tbe workmen nicked up a small pock­ et-book with tne name Lefroy on the fly-leaf and two pages in the centre of the book appear to have been stained with blood. Superintendent Beray has compared the writing in tiro pocket­ book with ihat of Lefroy, and finds them to correspond exactly. Of course thia will be used as additional evidence when this sensational trial comes on. It is expected that the idea of transfering the trial to th© London Criminal Court will be abandonded. Notwithstanding the efforts of Sir Wilfred Lawson and the coffeehouses British beer continues to flourish. Of all tiro house in England and Wales one-fortieth art given over to to the sale of one kind or another of spirit­ uous liquors. One hundred and thir­ teen houses is the actual number, aud thataffords a large preccntage. One hundred and fifty six millions of pounds represent the consumption of liquor in these counties for the last ten years, which in the ten proceeding years years was covered by a modest mnetv-millions. In a quarter of a cen­ tury tiro consumption of brewing su­ gar in England multiplied more than a hundred fold.

When Lew. was putting on his coat after his days work was finished, the affectionate spider kisstMl him on the arm, but the kiss was a deceitful one and Lew. has since been carrying an arm as large as good sized leg, and has been obliged to take a lay off. —The case of Powers vs Hardy, in regard to an attorney fee of $96, claim­ ed by the plaintiff to be due him for legal .services rendered the respondent, was tried before Esq. Potter Monday. A jury was impanneled, and after hear­ ing the cose, fentertained divers opin­ ions regarding the matter and finally agreed td.disagree. A new hearing of the case wiU be given before another jury, on Thursday November 3rd, the case being continued until that date. —Diphtheria has about vanished from our midst, no new coses having been reported since last week. A few children who have had slight attacks are kept indoors that they may not have a relapse, and. tiie subject of the disease has ceased to ben common topic of conversation. The changableness of the weather will of course create colds more or less, and all care should be taken that they are not al­ lowed to run on til diphtheria inevita­ bly follows. —Winter is hastening on and extra stoves are being placed in nearly every house, which should remind the autborites that the fire warden should again make a circuit of the village inspect­ ing chimneys and stove pipes, to see that every precaution is taken against tiie possibility of a fire. As the fire de­ partment is not in the best trim for battling with the firey element,! it be­ hoves us to be no the guard to prevent » fire breaking out in our midst.

Borno found that the time allotted for writ iug was to short to complete tin work for the grade they wished to obtain, and it has been suggested that two days be assigned for examinations, which suggestion is looked upon favor­ ably by the board. —Last week Friday night, a Mrs. Marion of Battle Creek, camo to this village, accompanied by her son, look­ ing for some horses, which they claim•is/1 had been stotea, about six weeks ago, and traded to parties in this vi­ cinity. They examined a borse owned, by Harry Jones, and afterwards went before Esq. Powers, swore out a search warrant, which was placed in Deputy Sheriff Lee’s hands and the horse was taken by the officer. On Saturday a hearing was had before Mr. Powers, and next Tuesday, Mrs. Marion will try and prove that tho horse is her properly, while Mr. Jones* claims to be able to prove by numerous witnesses that tho horse has been owned iu this vicinity for four or five years. —Tho article in The News, of two weeks ago, in regard to the scourge in Vermontville, seems to have complete­ ly ruptured the sensibilities of “J.” who comes out in the next issue of tiie Hawk and admits thefprincipal premise in the article, and then tries to refute the truthfulness of said article by beg­ ging the question, because he can think of no one at Vermontville, who would tell anything that happened there. If “J.” will call at The News office he can learn the name of our in­ formant, and can also be convinced by his .own article that said informant made a truthful statement. The num­ ber of schiAirs that attended the school or the number that waded in the brook was not given, neither was it necces- —The world is full of mysteries and one of the mysteries yet to beexplained, is why a certain young man named Button, who was lately doing laundry work at the Wolcott House should pur­ lion several full suits of ladies under­ wear. Two of the girls who have been at work jit the Wolcott House, left for Hastings lost week and left order with young Button to carry the boxes con­ taining' their clothing to Mr. Holbrook’s which he did, excepting the box con­ taining their under clothing, and that he took away with him, claiming they had given them the box and contents. The story of the gift is not a plausible one, and But ton is liable to find himself buttoned into a hole in thehotel-de-Houghtalin, unless' he re­ turns the afore said unmentionables. —Several business men complain ot the practice of the different justices, or the habit they have fallen into, of impanncling their juries from among their number, for every trifling suit, whether the case be between parties living in the village or the remote parts of the country, and offer the suggestion that, especially in cases from the coun­ try, that farmers be drawn for juror?, and give the business men a rest a part of tiie time, that they may attend to their Business, which calls for their personal attention, more especially during the fall, when their trade is more brisk, and the farmer’s work not so pressing as at other seasons of the year. They are willing to sit as jurors a reasonable number of times during the year, bat when called upon for every case, they think they are receiv­ ing more than their just share of the “honors” of jury map, —Consistency is a jewel that ths Hawk would be as mnch out of place in wearing, as the cloven footed ani­ mal that cbewetii not the cud, would be in wearing in its nose a golden, ring, or an amethyst setVith bril'iants.

About fifty invited guests were present, and some valuable presents given to the happy pair. A communication is inserted on an­ other page, from Rev. A. D. Newton, relative to the letter from a Nashille correspondent to the Hostings Journal. The communication was sent to the Journal, but the editor refused topublish it, which looks rather one-sided on their part, if the statements in regard to the matter are well founded. It is earnestly desired and expected, that all who are iu interested in the welfare of the Christian church, be in attendance -at the sabbath school next Sunday. Especially, are those who have signed a paper, looking to the es­ tablishment of permanent preaching in that church here, expetted to be on time.

Tbe old homestead, father, mother, big brother, blue-eyed sister—all are gone. Hut that Is not tbe story I am going to tell you now.

It seems a verv small story I have to tell, but yet it had a keen Interest for me at tbe time it happened, and I often look back up­ on It. I have often wondered I bad the courage to do ns I did, but I have never re.pvntcd of what I did. ’ Well, just as tbe spring was passing Into summer; just as the fresh green leaves of the trees In the People** Park, that lay with­ in a stone’* throw of Paradise Place, were beginning to get a bit dusty, and the prim­ row* and violets were going out of season, a pretty sight caught my eye one morning and kept me at work longer than It ought to have done. It was a woman’s face, framed in an open window—the very one where tbe mignonette box stood, and whence came the whiff of the many-blo*«omed flowers in «uniBirr. Just now nothing waa visible In tiil« long green box except a vast crown of liny tw<»leaved plants, that might have been bal<v «abbag**,orcres*,<>r anything—If one hadn’t known they were mignonette. The upper bait of tbe curtain waa shaded by a absbby sort of green blind; the lower, epen, framing, as I have said before, a Tiie profile, was toward me first. Rather large and massive in outline, but wonder­ fully Madonna-like, with sleek brown hair drawn simply back and folded round a eontb. • We had a pretty face or two In Paradise Place, but aalntjneas and neatness were not qualities common among us. But this woman was exquisitely neat, and I could sec the Huie anew-white collar round ber throaL Presently, still loitering at my window, the turned and I saw her full fa-c.

I would weave an intricate and exciting plot—a ‘plot that would hold my reader orcathlcM, and causa my editor to great me, on my next visit to tho editorial sanctum, with hi* biandeit smile; and.my picture should be limned after the pattern of that sweet-faced, calm-eyed woman, my new neighbor. I bad chosen a delightful test, quiet and retired, yet within earshot of children’s voic-s and tbe quacking of ducks (for we had a pond—quite a large pond, too—in our park), when, moving slowly, and In strange timid fashion, my new neighbor came along one of the aide walks. • I confess to experiencing a shock. I con­ fess thvt Pegasus, just about to soar aloft, floundered pitiably. 'Hie Madonna-faced woman was what is called, in homely parlance, a crook-back. A simple brown bonnet wv tied over her brown hair, the two nearly matching each other. Her blue eyes—wonderful eyes they were in very trutis—full of a sort of pathetic pleading, as if asking all Ue world to be tol­ erant of her deformed shape and awkward, shambling gall—looked at me as she passed. I almost fancied she would have slopped and taken a place upon the bench beside me but for the fact that ahe was on her way to keep an appointmenL I came to this con­ clusion unhesitatingly, because I have learn­ ed to read people’s errand* from the way they go about them, and know the look of a IH-rson on tbe way to a business interview off by heart. Poor people do not wait for Introductions to make each other’s acquaintance. It Is one of the advantages of poverty lhat it i* un­ trammeled by conventionality. A week later I ktew Hetty Deacon to speak to as we passed each other In the street, to nod to as wc looked al each other from opposite windows. A month later I seemed ro have known her all my life. I wondered how I had ever managed to get on without her sweet companionship—ber ready sympathy. For you never saw any one so Interested in the beautiful young Countesses and wicked young Dukes as Hetty was. She would laugh right merrily over the funny him of my stories, and I’m sure I have seen her eyes' quite bright and Uarfiil over my death-lied scenes. You know people al­ ways die at great length, and very much more picturesquely, on paper than they do In real life, and I was a great baud at this >ort of thing. 1 am a very old woman now, and an unexpected legacy has made it quite unnecessary for ma to write “ fiction for tbe million,” as we called our weekly paper, so I may say that much without laying myself open to the charge of being vainglorious. ■ Yce, I was a good hand at the pathetic parts. I often brought the tears to ray own ores, and my voice quite faltered a« t read aloud to Hetty abouf pale faces on white pil­ lows, and wan hands that clasped those that fain would never let them go. *• How clever you are!” she. would say; “ I should never have thought of that.” Success I had had In a certain small way of my own—success that meant a due and reg­ ular supply of chops and pudding, and a cheap trip to the sea once every autumn; but this, I felt, was fame—this was iiicen*e —this was a sip out of the intoxicating cup of glory!

Then I gave the thing up, con­ vinced that the higher education of tiie niasM* was a hopeless tiff dr. But It was different, quite different, with Hetty. And I grow to love tbe girl (she was but eighteen) pith all iny* heart. There had lx on black and terrible (roubles in my pa*t life. AH I loved had been rtlt from my hold; worse still, those I trusted in mo»t blindly had proved untrue. Mino was a sad story enough; gr'cf and disappointment had secincdto wither me. I bad made no ties, formed no friendships, in these latter year*. But now, I was like an old tree that sud­ denly sprout* out into little frosh green branches of leave* all about its hoary trunk. I let Hetty creep into my heart ot hearts and nestle there. \ Hetty was an artist’s model. “I o’nlv -it for the face and head, of course,” she said, a faint flush rising in her cheek, as she alluded to ber deformed and twisted frame; “Jt seems I suit for Saint Cecilia* and that sort of thing. ” “So 1 should fancy,” I answered,glancing at the beautiful, spiritual face opposite me. “Of course, with mother to keep, it ha» been hard work sometimes, and the sewing for the linen shops is a good thing to have at hand.when studio work chances to be slack. I was getting very hopeless just when first we came here, though I said nothing to mother. I never do. Do you remember tbe morning I passed you sitting under the laburnum tree in the park? Well, I was on my way tc *ee an artist then.” somebody; you looked like business all over. ' “ Yes, I dare say I did. I felt like it. I never made a better bargain than I did that day. I was afraid that I should break out singing as I came along the streets home — my heart was as glad as the lark over there at No. 10.” “ I thought so,” I put In hero'; “I heard you singing next morning at your work.” ' “ Patience, I think we always loved each other, even before wc ever spoke to each other. I used to peep at you across the street, and then the milk woman told moth­ er vou were ‘the lady who wrote stories;’ -o 1 peeped oftener than ever. I think I wat a little frightened of you at first.” •‘But not now!” “Ah, no.’’ Hetty's mother was nsiriy blind, and yet It was "Wonderful how much she managed to do in the way of “settling up’’ their shabby little room.' It was the very picture of cleanliness and tidiness. The last tenant hail been a musician at one of tbe minor theaters, a man who devoted himself to two things ta life—his violin, and tbe rearing of mignonette in the box cutalde of tbe win­ dow. The sun of prosperity seemed to be beginning to shine upon him, for when he left, with much pomp and ceremony, he presented the painted box to the landlady, and now, full of sweet-scented greenish and yellow flowers, it flourished exceedingly un­ der Hetty’s care. “ Ccuain Jack likes the smell of flowers ternoon, ax she and" I stood together by the window. ’‘He’s coming, is Jack, this eve- 1 am naturally rather a fluent women, but there was something In Hetty’s face—eomethlng in Hetty’s voice—that held mt-silent, as she spoke ol that expected visitor of her*.

My poor husband wm alive then, and we were well-to-do.” Here Hetty, ever watchful of ber mother’s mood* and fancies, cried out that Jack was coming down the street, end that he had a posy in bi* coat. So be had, and I hardly know which waa brighter and more bounie, the young fellow’s face or the posy of sum­ mer flower* at bls breast. He was a sailor, every Inch of him, strong­ ly buitt, sunburned, curly-locked, dark­ eyed. He had a ringing, happy laugh, and was fond of waUrcrewe* and mar­ malade; Indeed, be complimented me on both articles, Mrs. Deacon having explained that they were my contributions to the en­ tertainment. But what struck me about him moet was his marvelously tender, gentle ways to his Cousin Hetty. She, on her part, seemed more silent-than usual; but the beautiful Madonna face wu all alight with a quiet -adianre—a calm and restful joy—a look as if abe were forever saying to herself. “ He is here, here beside me,” like a bird singing a sweet song of content over and over again. The couiin* went to church together, and I staid with Mrs. Deacon meanwhile, listen­ ing with quiet yet keen attention to remin­ iscence* of bygone days—of Jack’s boyhood —of Hetty’s girlhood. •• Jack wm the orphan son : Nr. Dea­ eon** only sister, and-was never grudged nothing no more than if he’d been our own,” said my Informant, with a certain air of pride in the late Mr. Deacon’s generosity toward his wife’s kin. Jack had not been unmindful of these benefits received, and when tho evil days came many a welcome bit of help did he send to hls’morc than mother. “Never forgetting Hetty,” added Mrs. Deacon, complacently. “ lie’s main fond of Hetty, 1* Jack, I can'tell you.” The last remark was made with a certain gentle defiance, and the dim eve* wtre turned to me with a sort of wistful nope that I might make some further comment. But I had none to make. I read the mother’s hopes and fears: 1 read my dear girl’s heart, but 1 kept silent. The evening was warm and still; from tbe far distance came the sound of church bells pealing; from somewhere near at hand the sound of an organ and of hymn-singing. Mr*. Deacon had fallen into a doze, and as 1 sat there waiting for tho cousins to-come home, a mist came over mr eyes, something rose In my throat and tried to choke me, and a voice in my heart cried out: “Oh, Hettv, Hetty—what ean 1 do for you, my dearie?” Tiie summer was at it* height. In Western London the great*folks were setting themselvjs to thinking where they should go Jor their summer outing. Wc folks at the Ea-l End just had to make the best of things,and be gnateftil for small mercies, such as wa* ter-carts to lay the dust, and the peripatetic Ice-vender with his truck and little tumblers of lem->n and strawberry. I had got to know C«u«iu Jack quite well by this time. 1 was able to read ••between the lines’’ in my dear girl’s heart-story. Hetty wm very dear to her sailor cousin; I dear, as thing* weak and helpless are apt to be dear to the strong: dearer because of her affliction, slhred, in his eyes, as a suffering child lx sacred t<r all of us who know the beauty of tendcrnefll and pity. Hetty wax all this to her Cousin Jack but nothing more. Of what Jack was to Hetty I can not speak. I dared nut try to gauge It at the time. 1 put Mu* thought of It from me, a•we put aside n thing we dare not look upon —lhat is, for a time. The day camo when I had to take my coRrage by both hands, and face all tbe cruel truth; for the young sailor took a groat fancy to me, though I was a Hille old wom­ an with a Quakerish cap. and a shabby gown. Not only so, but he opened hi* heart to me. Wc were walking side by side Ju the park, wlwre every thing looked parched and dried up with the baking beat, when Jack first told inc that after the voyage upon which he was just about to start, be was going to be married. “ 1 hoj>e Aunt Ann and Hetty won’t take it unkind that I haven’t told them all about it from the first,” he said, doubtfully?.“ihit, to say the trqpi, Mias Heath. I find It a dif­ ficult thing to tell. 1 want them to be quite sure that I will never be any different to them; that I shall al wavs be the same Cous­ in Jack. 1 am so afraid they will faucy-^-all kinds <>t things.” “ I don’t think they will fancy anything that Is not true,” I put In, perhaps with more warmth than wisdom. “ Do you mean to say you think so meanly of me a* to suppose 1 shall forget those two dear, gentle women, just because I have a homo and a wife of my own!” “No,” I said, looking up Into his bravo and bonnle facfl—“No, you will not forget them; but it can not be the line—It never Is.” We paced up and down and talked to­ gether a long while after this. It was dusk and gray when we went In, I to my own lonely room, Jack to his supper with Mrs. Deacon and Hetty. Once alone, 1 sat down In the dark, untied my bonnet-strings and flung them back, unfastened my shawl and let it fall over my chair. I wu stifling—choking, I felt like the ver­ iest coward that ever drew breath. I had a task before me from which I shrank with every nerve of my poor little shriveled body—the hardest task that had ever been set mo yet: To wound cruelly tbe one creature I loved on earth. And yet It must be done. The womanly pride and self-respect of a, sister-woman is dear to any woman worth the name. Jack must not tell this thing to1 Hetty. The girl's secret waa safe so far. It It wat the following night. Hetty had come to par me a visit. I bad been listening: to the account of a grand historical picture in which she was to figure.

If Connecticut is tho laud of wooden land u* of nutmegs, Maine must be the uiuu herring sardines. There are said to be twenty-two establishments on the Wash­ ington County coast, whereof two-thirds are in thin town, in which herring are »ut up as sardines in .tin boxes made liere in imitation of those used by the French, bearing French labels, pre­ served in cotton-seed oil, which is as­ serted on tho cans to be choice olive-oil. “No admittance” is notified at the en­ trance, but the rule is not enforced. Herring are brought in from the. bay in large quantities, and unloaded at the several wharves where the factories are erected. They are carried in, baskets into a largo room provided with rough tables, where a gang of boys and girls from ten to fifteen years of ago are waiting for them, eack armed with a knife. Some of these children are dex­ terous. A s-inglo cut removes the head and from one to two inches of the shoul­ der of each fish, and at tho same time draws the greater part of the “innards.” Then'll is more or less removed by an­ other cut. Tho extent of the business done is in­ dicated bv the fact that the rejected parts of the herring at a single estab­ lishment frequently amount to several hogsheads a day. These parts are boiled, pressed for their oil, and the refuse is sold for manufacture into dress­ ing for soil. It is not yet possible to manufacture olive oil ana anchovy paste out of tho heads of herring. The bodies and tails of the herring are washed, laid upon wire racks, baked in a great oven, packed in tin boxes by girls, covered witij cotton-seed oil, the boxes are sol­ dered, heated again in the oil, and final­ ly packed in wooden boxes for ship­ ment. The process need not be de­ scribed at great length. It does not appear to be a very cleanly process, but very likely it is as much so as that of E” )g up veritable sardines. The r fish are put up in oval tin boxes ire called “sea trout.” Still other herrings are dubbed “eagle fish.” And, finally, there is a process of putting up the fish in a spioed preparation wnicn gives them the name of “mustard sardines.” Makers ot oleomargarine, I believe, sometimes eat their product on warm brown bread, and profess to like it So some of the sardine canners here eat their herring and declare that it is good. Perhaps it is. But it is not sardine. The labels upon the boxes are all lies. The word Paris upon them and the head of the late Emperor Napoleon suggests falsehood. The assertion that the oontents are sardines, put up in the best olive oil, is a direct and unqualified mis­ statement. If herring, put up in the oil of cotton seed, make a palatable dish, very well. Let those eat it who wish to do so. To put it up in imitation, of something else is a barefaced fraud, which the law should forbid and punish, —Eastport Cor.

I could see the wonderful silky length ot their long lasbes even In that faint and feeble light. Had tie cruel blow killed her? Had I lost the one thing I loved on earth? No; for her arms cloae about tuy neck; fast—fast and close she hold* me. Tears rain down bar poor, pale fsce; sob* choke.ber utterance. It is best so, and I let ber weep on.

Hetty and I live together now. We have done so a long while; ever since Mrs. Deacon died. Jack’s marriage turned out a very happy one, and his children dote upon and tyran­ nize over their Aunt Hetty beyond anything 1 ever saw.

It h not half ns full of incidents as those I used to write in Paradise Place, while the hoar-c dog put me out by hU barking and the lark cheered me up with hi* song.

I fear the French Republic will have its hands full for some tim<5 to come with tho affairs of Tunnis. While French ironclads are battering down villages in one direction, Arwn insur­ gents are wrecking the French Rail­ way and plundering and destroying wherever they go. They seem to care little what mischief they do in their de­ sire to revenge themselves. Mean­ while. France ispushing forward troops rapidly, ns it is stated that at least one h unde red thousand men will be re­ quired to “pacify” the Tuunfaians, to say nothing of a considerable increase in Algeria, to guurd against possible iliflicultiea there. It is worth while to contrast tbe American with the French Republic in this mutter. While u hundred thousand men are required to keep Tunnis in older, the entire stand­ ing army of the United Statesis but twenty five thousand men against a population of more than fifty million^. Who can wonder that America is pros­ perous!

Lor’, but wasn’t I excited that day! When those two fingers went with a grape-shot I never felt the pain!” The fourth man growled out some­ thing about Second Bull Run and a sabre cut on the head, and the fifth man felt of his left side and said he should always remember the lay of the ground at the Yellow Tavern. The sixth man was silent. The other five looked at him and waited for him to speak, but it was a long time before he pointed to his emptv sleeve and asked: " Gentlemen, do you know where I got that?” Some mentioned one battle and some another, but he shook his head sadly and continued: “ Bovs, let’s be honest and own right up.

NO PATENT NO MY Finns tbe murder of the Prewitt 1878, and although the evidence was very strong against hun the miraing link in the circumstances .could not be proved and he was given tho benefit of the doubt and acquitted. In June, 1879, George W. Meber, Martin’s uncle, who lived about five miles from Lebanon, was shot in the back while plowing in his field. The circumstances showed that Mclser had been shot by some one who had been hidden in some underbrush near thd place where he was shot. Martin quar­ reled with his uncle only a short time before the murder, and had said con­ cerning him to a friend: “ Never mind Meiser; I don’t think he will live more than'a few days.” It was also proven that his mother had urged him to kill Meiser, and. said that Meiser was as good as dead already. The mother and son were both tried on the charge of having murdered Meiser, and tbe mother was acquitted and son found guilty. Martin was then sentenced to be hanged. The way in which Martin managed to escape while his case was being appealed is best told by himself. A reporter Interviewed him as he stood near the door of cell No. 9, in the Central District Police Station, yes­ terday, aud elicited the following facts: “Martin,” said the reporter, “give us an account of your escape and your wanderings since you left the jail at Lebanon.” “ Well, I suppose I may as well tell you.” The reporter noticed that he was an ordinary-looking young man, sallow complexion, high cheek bones, and slight in build. He is twenty-one years of age, aud although five feet nine inch­ es tall, does not show much muscular development. “ You saw the girl who followed me to the Court-house,” said Martin. ‘‘Well, she was the Sheriff's niece,where I was in jail at Lebanon. She seemed to notice mo and I soon began writing notes to her and shoving them under the door of my cell, when she used to come along and take them away. I did it for amusement at first, and Maggie did not seem to care to answer them. Finally, however, she wrote me an answer to one of my notes, and slipped it under the door of my cell. This happened about the time of my trial. After that we beBin corresponding, and I soon began to ve her dearly Finally her uncle. Sheriff Wilson, detected us, and Maggie was sent away in the early part of March, and staid away about six months. I still kept up my correspondence with Maggie, however, through friends who .used to visit me. ■ Finally Maggie came back to the jail, and she had heard that I was pretty sure to be hanged, and it made her awful sad. She swore she would liberate me, and soon put her plans into execution. . ‘‘On tho IGth of November last, about sovctt a. m., she camo with the keysand said now was the best time, and told mo she would knock twice when all was ready. I soon heard the knocks and opened the door, when I met Maggio, who gave mo her father's breach-loading rifle, and wo both just walked out of the jail and up the road. I did not meet any one but negroes on the way, who know mo, and they did not say anything. We went to my house, and on the 25th of November I got two horses. Maggie dressed in boy's clothes and rode astrad­ dle, like a man, and we cantered away. We rode down to Arkansas, and Mag­ gie stood all the roughing without a complaint as well as a man. We next wont to Virginia. When we got to Martin’s Station, Va., I married Maggio. Tho girl stood by me, and I marriedher at the first opportunity. I got work in a blacksmith's shop at Martin’s Station, and was doing pretty well until two detectives rushed into the blacksnffth shop and jumped on me. I hit owe of them with the iron I was heating and the other with a sledge-hammer, pulled out my pistols and lit out. ‘‘I next went to Pine Flat,Tenn.,where Sheriff Goodall found me. I waa living on the outskirts of the town, and on Tuesday I went to the Post-office, and he had me so quick I could not resist.” Martin says he never killed Meiser, and is perfectly willing to go home, as he has plenty of friends there. He says a fellow named Bob Klinkenbeer, Meiser’s brother-in-law, killed him. Sheriff Goodall said, about six p. m. yesterday, as ho came to take Martin down to the Union Depot, that he had been on Martin’s trail about five months, and found him at the Post-office at Pine Flats on last Tuesday. Maggie Wilson, who helped Martin to escape^ is about eighteen years old. She says she has followed Martin’s fortunes, good and bad—but mostly bad—and says she will stick to him through thick and thin. She lias a heavy under-jaw, which bespeaks great determination, and she seems to be a very inidfigent young woman, but intensely passionate tn her disposition. > , Sheriff Goodall nnd Martin and his wife left on the «:60 train on the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad lost evening for Laclede County, where Mar­ tin will be executed in December unless a new trial is granted him, or he suc­ ceeds in making another fortuitous e»- [Martin did again succeed in making his escape, by jumping from the car window, and at last accounts had not another capture, ’1st few years. Saint Dennis. Ina bordering Mass., a factory with horse-power, to make tacks, and he appointed his unfor­ tunate brother to the position of head­ ing them in a vise, one by one. Once in a mechanic shop, his dormant genius began to wake up. Era that youth had spent many months in this dull task he had designed, constructed and put In operation a machine that made tacks at one motion, faster than the. ticking of a watch, and more finished tlian those made by hand. So perfect in design and construction, it was operated over twenty years, and experts who have seen it say no essential improvement has ever been made upon it. The neighbors could not at first be made to believe that that stammering youth ever invented it, but when they found he had hardly been out of the shool district, they were con­ strained to give him the credit. In the same town of Millbury, a few miles below his shop, on the Blackstone River, were extensive armory works, engaged in manufacturing guns for the United States. The proprietor was then intent upon improving on the English mode of making gun-barrels, which was to weld them by hand, and grind them down before a revolving stone. He had invented a process of welding them under trip-hammers, bv which the work was done- better, nuicker and cheaper, and it was adopted at the Na­ tional and other armories in this country and Europe. Finding that the grinding process left the barrels of unequal thick­ ness around the calibre, and made them liable to explode, his next aim was to turn them In a lathe. In this he suc­ ceeded, by a lathe patented December 19,1818, so far as the barrel was round, but to turn the irregular shape of the butt baffled all hie efforts, and not his alone, but of all lhe most ingenious me­ chanics in all the armories, of which there were eight —two National, at Springfield andllarper’s Ferry, and six private in United States, service, for supplying the different State. Most of them succeeded tn turning the barrel so far as it was round, but all failed in their attempt to turn the biltt. It could only bo reduced to shape by hand-filing, and that oo?t ft dollar on each gun. Tho prices paid to the contractors by tho \Var Department were limited, to tho •cost of making arms at the National ar­ mories, and the reason given was that, as necessity is the mother of invention, they would be compelled to make labor­ saving improvements to secure their profits, while the mechanics in those ar­ mories, being paid by the day, had no such motive. The wisdom of this policy was abun­ dantly verified, and the public of to-day are little aware how mucli they nrc in­ debted to the private armorie< for me­ chanic improvements. Guns were for­ merly made entirely bv hand, and most iron-work was reduced to shape by hand­ filing, ivhich a large class of mechanics followed as profession. It has now be­ come nearly obsolete, tho work being done by machinery. Tho contractors having labored a year or more in fruit­ less attempts to solve the problem of re-, dicing the butt by a machine, nt length tho proprietor of ’the armpry works at Millbun’, in shear desperation, hearing of a budding genius in a border farming district, sent for him to come to his ar­ mory. When he came he seemed a stranger to all present, diffident, had a stammering tongue, and not much was expected ot him. lining told what was wanted, ho glanced Ins eye over the machine, began a low, monotonous •-histle, as was Ms wont through life when iu deep study, aud ere long sug­ gested an additional, very simple, but wholly original cam motion, which upon being applied relieved tho difficulty at once, ana proved a perfect success. The proprietor was delighted, and turning to mtn said: “Well, Thomas, I don’t know what you won’t do next. I would not be surprised, if you turned a gun­ stock!” naming'that as the most inipoasiblc feat in mechanics he could con­ ceive, it being neither round nor straight in any part. Thomas began his pecu­ liar whistle again, and then stammered, “Wa-we-well, I’ll t-try that.” Where­ upon tho workmen who had gathered round burst into a loud laugh at the ab­ surdity of the idea. The germ of the stocking machine lay in tiiat cam mo­ tion, and it was then and there, as he afterward said, that the idea of bis worldrenowned machine for working out ir­ regular forms first flashed through his mind, although it required many month* to elaborate it. Blanchard was toon called to Spring­ fluid armory to adjust similar cam mo­ tions, and on a return journey, when riding solitary and alone In his carriage, he suddenly exclaimed, like Archimedes of old, with great glee, “I’ve got it! I’ve got it! I’ve got it!” Two men by the wayside overheard him, and one said to the other, I guess that man is crazy!” He sold his tack machine for five thousand dollars—a mere trifle for it* worth, but a great fortune to him then. He built a shop, filled it with tools, and kept himself locked in for about two yean. At last he emerged, and brought to tho armory at Millbury a miniature model of his stocking machine, and it operated so well that a full-sized work­ ing machine was decided upon. The aid of other mechanics was called in, and Blanchard’s firat eccentric lathe was built in Millbury. In the meantime the fame of it had reached Washington, and the Ordnance Department were de­ sirous of baring it launched into notice from the National Armory at Spring­ field. Blanchard, feeling a just pride In this recognition of his great inven­ tion, ordered it rant there. It remained long enough to build a new one, was than returned to lOTbury and set up in their fleehb in hb northern travels, heard species spoken oi by tha Indians m •pect for the dead and sympathy with the rmte buffaloes.” And Lewis and Clark tell us that, in a time of great GOOD ADVICE FROM A LEADING MED­ ; ICAL PROFE88ORBouri they saw plenty of wild sheep, but The lea Tied doctor says: "Keep «xne kind of they were “ too shy to be shot.*’ a tonic medicine always In the house, aud if A few of the more energetic of the auvone feete unwell, make free uae of It.

The day had been insufferably hot, aud a fairly cool breeze had set in. Turning to the bartender I remarked that I felt like dropping asleep in my chair and remaining iu the open air all night. He laughed. “You’d be cleaned out in half an hour,” he said. “Your watch and chain would be on a Chat­ ham street Shelf before noon to-morrow. I don’t know where all the thieves eome from, but let a man go to deep in a seat after dark anvwhere on Coney Island, and a thief wui apparently rise r^htouto! the sand and go through One word brought on another, and the barkeeper finally proposed to fish for thieves. We padded his Sunday suit, put out the light*, and placed it on a chair. An immense brass curb chain fell in a yellow festoon from a pocket in the waistcoat. At a distance the image looked like a hearty old gentieman indulging in a caz nap before .urning in for tbo night. Wo took portions within tbo bar-room, where we could see through an open window, and awaited prey. On the next lap he laid his hand on the-back of the chair and shook it very lightly. “ Say, Colonel,” he Mid, in a voice just loud enough to test the soundness of the nap, “ hadn’t you bet­ ter be getting inside P You’ll catch cold out here.” His hand slid gently down toward tho glittering chain. At this instant more footsteps wore board oh tbo piazza. Prowler No. 2 appeared. The first comer araumed an air of companionship with the sleeper. He soon drew up a chair and look a position at his side. Prowler No. 2 hummed an air from “The Marcotte,” and made several laps, closely observing the couple as be passedthem. At last, however, he dis­ appeared at the extreme end of the porch. The original speculator hesi­ tated a second, and again extended his band toward the chain. We alarmed him by a tap on the window. He was off in a jiffy. Without looking around he sprang across the piazza, dropped to the ground, and disappeared. After displaying anew the attractive­ ness of our bait we again ensconced ourselve at the side of the window. Prowler No. 2 reappeared. He glanced suspic­ iously at tno sleeper, saw tho watch­ chain, and seemed surprised at the ab­ sence of the tall man. He mused with­ in himself some time. The shining lure acted like a charm. Gaining confi­ dence, he approached quarry. “ Say, Judge,” he ventured as a feeler, “ you'll get robbed if you don't go inside.” The Judge made no response. Prowler No. 2 slipped behind his chair, and, reach­ ing down over his shoulder, gently de­ tached tho chitin from tho buttonhole. He was tugging at tho supposed watch when the bartender yelled at him. Ho shot into the darkness like a bullet, leaving tho chain dangling loosely from thepocket. Wo again doctored the image. Scarce­ ly were wo out of sight when a recon­ noitering party, consisting of a man and a boy, appeared. They made a con­ certed effort to clean out the slumberer by approaching him simultaneously from opposite directions. - This effort, however, was checkmated by a persist­ ent thumping on tho window. By this time the bartender thought that I had received an instructive lesson. Ho said that tho fun might be kept up until daylight, but it womd become too monotonous. While we were talking about taking in tho figure, a tall, lank man, evidently tho original speculator, rushed across tho platform, and made a dash for the chain. Ho yanked at it with such force that he jerked the sleeper from the chair. For .an instant ho seemed dazed by the catastrophe. Then, recovering himself, he swept tho effigy up in his arms and ran over the sand like a deer. Before the bartender had recovered from his surprise ho was out of sight. A long chase followed. The bartender returned panting, and stream­ ing with perspiration. “Well, by thunder,” he exclaimed, “ that fellow got his work in well. He didn’t quit no loser. That suit of togs cost mo $40. It wasn't a paying circus, I’m blowed if it was. If this thing goes on and we stay on the island all sum­ mer, we’ll have to sleep in tho safe."— Neto York Sun. Caster’s Valor. The most striking account get gnun by Indians of Custer’s last battle is that by Low Dog, as follows: “ They came on us like a thunderbolt. I never before nor since saw men so brave and fearless as .those white war­ riors. We retreated until our men got together, and then we charged upon them. I said to my men: ‘This is a good day to die—follow me!’ We massed our men, and, that no man should fall back, every man whipped another man’s horse, and wo rushed right upon them As we rushed upon them, the white war­ riors dismounted to fire, but they did poor shooting. They held their horses’ reins on one arm while they were shoot­ ing, but their horses were so frightened that they pulled tho men all around, and a great many of their shots went up in the air and did us no harm. The white warriors stood their ground brave­ ly, and none of them made any attempt to escape or get away. After all but a few of them were killed, I captured two of their horses. Thon the wise men aud chiefs of our nation gave out to our peo­ ple not to mutilate the dead white chief, for he was a brave warrior, and died a brave man, and his remains should bo respected. Then I turned round and went to help fight tho other white war­ riors who bad retreated to a high hill on the east side of the river. (This was Reno’s command.) I don’t know whether any white men of Custer’s force were taken -prisoners. When we got back to our camp they were all dead. Everything was in confusion at the time of the fight. I did not see General Cus­ ter. I do not know who killed him. We did not know till the fight was over that he was the white chief. We had no idea that the white warriors were com­ ing until the runner came in and told us. I do not say that Reno was a coward. Ho fought well, but our men were fight­ ing to save their women and children, and drove them back. If Reno and his warriors had fought as Custer and his warriors fought, the battle might have been against us. No white man or In­ dian over fought as bravely as Custer and his men. The next day wc sought Reno and his forces again and killed .many of them. Then the chiefs said ithese men had been punished enough i ■ ianother force was coming up the river Ito fight us (General Terry'* command), ;and wo started to fight'them, but th* ■chiefs aud wire men counseled that we !had fought enough, and that we should : back and took our women and claldiw YOU CAN A good Print at 5 cts. per yd, Nice Dress Goods at 10 cts per yd, A pound of good Batts at 10 cts., A dozen white Napkins for 65 cts., Broadhead Alpaca cheap, Comfortables at $1.00, Horse Blankets at $1.15, Good Underwear at 25 cts per piece, Canton Flannel at 10 cts. per yd,, A Suit of Clothes for $7.50, BAICBKU, JI. !>..

How Jeff evacuated is too well known to our renders to be* repeated here. Yesterday we visited Petersburg, the the scene of the death struggle of the Confederacy, aud for the small sum of twenty-fivo cents were permitted to look uphn the spot—the "crater”— where Geo. Grant exploded a mine on July SOtli, 1864, under a rebel fort, blowing up several hundred'of t he lat­ ter. In o.dvr to do this a gall-.-r.v 620 feet long was dug from near Union position, and when explosion occurred it left a crater 200 feet lonj;, 60 wide and 30 deep. A great portion of this has been filled up by washing rains and many of the fortifications that eurrouuded Petersburg have been cut down to admit of farming. Many houses in Petersburg still bear murks of the late conflict. While here we visited the old Blandford church, built in 1787,of brick imported from England. In regard to the city of Richmond we have but a few words. It 'was laid out in 1733, and being built on several hills, nature provides an ample drainage, und it is rated a very healthy city Since the war it btis grown rapidly. Had in1860, 37.910 inhabitants, 1870. 51.000 and 1880. 65,000. In 1880 187 new manufact­ uring establishments were put in oper­ ation.

But I’m sure, Oby, dear, we are neither of us extravagant. Wo must eat, we must drink, and we must live?”. And Obadiah and I-sat and looked at each other in a sort of mild despair. Wo had only been married six months, Obadiah and I. We wore very young, both of us, and perhaps wo had begun the world too early. Our relations told us we hadn’t any business to marry; but as their gratuit­ ous opinions were all that they had ever given us, or ever intended to give us, we had not naid much attention to these utterances. We had taken a little one-stoiy cot­ tage, just on tho high rood, which was . let cheap, because thore were only two rooms and a kitchen to it. But what did Qbadish and I want with more than two rooms and a kitehen? I had the furniture which Grand mother Newcomb had given me. aud a rag carpet which my poor mother had woven tho winter before she died. To be.sure, our accom­ modations were not extensive, but wo did not expect to hold fashionable re­ ceptions or give largo dinner-parties. Obadiah nad plenty of work in the woolen factory, down by tho depot, and I hung out my little sign, “ Dressmak­ ing and Millinery,” aud hoped that somebody would see it, aud come in and E've me an order. But no one came. I id plenty of time after my housekeep­ ing duties were over in the morning, aqd couldn’t be always beeswaxing the furniture, arranging tho china cup­ board, or polishing the .windows. “ I wish I could get some dre-smaking to do!" said I, wistfully: for'Obadiah’s earningfl were flmall, and I did so long for a oollar or two of my own. “ Why don’t you advertise in the vil­ lage paper?” said old Mr. Meggs. (ftjadiah burst out laughing“ Advertise!” said he. “Why, what on earth do you take us for, Mr. Meggs? It costs a deal of money to advertise.” “It costs something, certainiv,” said Mr. Meggs, thoughtfully stroking his chin; “but, then, it calls public atten­ tion to tho particular sort of iron that you have in tho fire.” >’ A little local paper like that?” said Obadiah, rather contemptuously. “ It’s local cu-rtom your wife wants, isn’t it?” said Mr. Meggs. “ And I nevey did think much of news­ papers,” addiwl Obadiah. So that settled the question; and af­ terward, when the foreman of the woolen factory cut down all the wages of the workmen twenty per cent., and coal Went up, and the winter set in hard and cold, and we begun to consider tha question of how und where ko could ecunomiz'L the local newspaper was al­ most tho first thing upon which Obadiah settled. “That, at least, is on unnecessary ex­ travagance,” said he. I winced a little. Tho Boggsville Herald had been my companion for more lonely evenings than I cared to re­ member. “ It’s only a dollar and a haff a year, Obadiah,” said I; “and really ifs a very interesting little paper.” “ Just a dollar aud a half 3 year too much,” said my husband, curtly, “The subscription is just. out. I’ll tell ’em we won't renew it. If you care so much about il, Josie, you can easily borrow Mrs. Meggti’ paper.” . I wa.s silent. I never could make Obadiah’ understand tho deep-rooted aversion to “borrowing”of any creature whatever that I had inherited from my mother. So we cut down the weekly paper, and left off using butter, and burned caudles u penny a pound cheaper, and I sponged, and cleaned, and rebound, and new buttoned Obadiah's great-coat, in­ stead of buying a new one, and left off going to church because my old- cloak was so shabby and 1 couldn’t afford any­ thing better. And oh, how I did miss the Boggsvillo Herald.1 “ If I could only get a little dressmak­ ing to do,” mud I to myself, “I would subscribe again myrclf. But I can not bear to mk Obadiah for a cent of his hard-earned money.” I was sitting, vary sad and lonely, one freezing February day, by the window, trying to mend one of 'Obadiah’s old waistcoata, so that it should last a few days longer, when a traveling pedler, with a huge banket ut china ornaments on one arm and a bundle on his shoul­ der, knocked at the door. He nodded in —and this is really something quite out of the ordinary.” And with a succession of nod* and grins, he unwrapped a pair of really very pretty blue vases, nearly two feet high, and ornamented with raised gar­ lands in white. “ Only six dollars a pair, ma’am,’.’ said he. “Dirt cheap. It’s positively giving them awtty at that price.” “ I have no six dollars to spare,” said I, indifferently. “ It’s a great bargain, ma’am.” he in­ sisted. •“ I do not want them,” said I. He was silent for a few Seconds. “I’m sorry, ma’am,” said he. “They’d be a great decoration for a house like this. But if you really won’t buy, it would be doing me a great favor to allow them to stand here until to­ morrow. I’ve a long tramp before me, and I’m not going to any place where I think they’d be likely to buy anything of thia sort. I’ll set ’em back by the chimney-piece, ma’am,where they won’t be in any one’s way. And 1’mvery tired with carrying ’em?’ t I felt sorry for the poor, jaded wretch —so I made no objection. And when he was gone, the vases did make the room look wonderfully pretty. I could not but wish that they were mine. Obadiah perceived them at once, when he came home to tea. “Hello!” said he, “what does this mean?” So I told him, adding: “ I only wish that I could afford to buy them—they are so handsome.” Obadiah walked around and around them, with his hands in his pockets, and his brows knit thoughtfully. “ Yes, they’re pretty,” said he. “But they’re not perfect.” “Not perfect!” I echoed. “ Not by any means. Don’t you sec that lengthwise crack down one? And the end of the little raised rosebud is chipped oft on the other. I hope you didn’t do it, Josie?” with a sudden glance of apprehension. “I? Certainly not!” I cried. “Why, I haven’t sc much as touched the things!” “ Then I dare say it’s all right,” said Obadiah. And he sat down to supper. The next day. however, my friend, the china-vender, came along, smiling and obsequious as ever. “ There are your vases,” said 1, “just where you left them!” But all at once he broke out into a storm of reproach and obloquy. They had been cracked and damaged in my care. They were perfect—absolutely perfect—when he left them there the day before. I had worked the mischief, and I was of course responsible for the value of the articles! Of course I knew that the rascal was telling a falsehood; but what could I do? I was alone in the house, ahd fairly cowed by the ferocity of the man. . “ You must pay mo for them,” he re­ iterated, again and again, “or I will •have you arrested at once!" I burst into tears. “ How can i pay you?” said I. “The vases were damaged when you left them here. And, besides, I have not five dol­ lars—no, nor one dollar—in the house.” (Which, also, was true epotigh.) While 1 spoke, he had been glancing furtively around. ’ “ I don’t want to be hard with you, ma’am,” said he. “Of course, a poor man like me has got to save himself from loss, and if you’ll let tne have that set of blue und white India china in the dresser, in exchange, 1’lheave the vases and we’ll say no more about it.” It went to my heart to part with the India china, which had been a relic of my mother’s housekeeping days, but I was so cowed aud terrified by the man’s bullying manner that I believe I would Have given him the house from over my head if he hud asked for it; and he went away, leaving lhe beautiful vases on the floor. How glad 1 was to see Mrs. Meggs come cheerfully in, half an hour afterward!—a good, motherly old soul, with silver spectacles and an elderly dimple still lingering on her cheek. ' “Why, my dear,” said she, “what’s the matter?” And I told her all. “ But, my dear,” said she, “howpame you to be so taken in? There was an ar­ ticle in the paper last week, warning everybody against this very impostor. Didn’t you see it? It was called ‘TheVase Swindler.’ ” ' I colored deeply, and hung down my head. “ We have stopped taking the paper," said I. “ Obadion thought we couldn’t afford—” “And your beautiful old china, too!" said Mrs’. Meggs. . “Why, there was ha-ff a column in the paper,’ week before last, aB6ut the value of old china jast now. And by what is stated, yawr set of old India-ware must liave been worth twenty dollars at least.” Twenty dollars! And I had frittered them away for a pair of wretched, cracked, tawdry things, of the very sight of which I was already sick. “My dear,” said Mrs. Meggs, “your ideas of economy are altogether mis­ placed. You should read the papers.” Obadiah went and subscribed for the Boggsville Herald that very evening. And in the first number he saw an ad­ vertisement for hands at a new steam factory in the neighborhood, which of­ fered 'steady work and wages a third higher than he waa now receiving. And I inserted a modest little “ Dressmaking Wanted,” and it was answered within snug little income now, thank heaven I And if anybody tells us now that we can’t afford to take a paper, wo tall them, Obadiah and I, that we can’t af­ ford to do without one.—South Jersey Times. _________ ________ _____ Garraul jelly---------first preserving done. Strawire often neglected, “ they are an extremely delicate fruit to keep | through the hot weather. Currant jellyi making is one of the mostdelicate culinary arts. It requires care, skill and attention tn the smallest details. Without this the jelly may oome, but It will be dirk and stringy, and fliivo'leu, or, tn-»t of »** all ■to tne MVU'V housem m. humiliating on V VMV keeper’s pride, it may be thin. If the jelly does not “form” in one night, there is Uttle use in working over it. Tho currants have been overripe or lhe juice has been cooked too long, it will grow a' little thicker if it is set in the sun for a day or two, covered with pieces ot giass, but jelly once thin will never form rightly and no care can remedy the mistake. Speed is of the greatest consequence in all preserving, as the natural flavor of the fruit is more readily saved. The old-fashioned method of squeezing the iuioe from the unheated fruit and boiling it d^wn to a thick conserve is happily abandoned now by all intclligeui house­ keepers. Place the currants, which may bo stewed If you wish, though it is not necessary, in a stone jar and set it in a pot of cold renter, which should be Elaced on the fire. The stone jar should o covered tightly and be a little higher than the rim of the pot, so that no steam can get to tho currants. Cook them in this way thirty minutes after tho water begins to boil Then break the fruit witb a potato beetle and strain through a fiannol bag. Do not squeeze tho currants too ha rd, as the jelly will bo cloudy if you do. It is better to press the. juice out with a press. To every pint ot luice allow a pound of sugar. Put the juice over the fire in a porcelainlinod kettle and let it pook gently fifteen minutes after it boils. Then add the sugar; stir to dissolve it as quickly as possible, and at the first boiling remove the kettle from the fire and fill the bowls or tumblers you have in readiness. These should -be standing in a pan of boiling water, to prevent their being cracked by the hot jelly. Opaque bowls or jars are better to keep Jelly than tumblers, as they exclude the light. A bowl makes a prettier mold for tbe table. It is. well to put a specimen of the jelly in a tumbler to examine its clearness and color. Many housekeepers prepare current jelly spiced to eat with mutton and other meats. This is easily done by adding a tablespoonful of cinnamon and ono of mace, tied in a bog, to the juice when when you put it on to boil. Before you add the sugar take out tho bag of spices, odd a tablesponful of cloves, which may remain in the jelly, as they look pretty floating in the.olear crimson foam. • Black current jelly is excellent, and is made in tho same way as red currant. The amateur cook may fail in her first cui rant jelly, but she will be sure to suc­ ceed with grape or quince jellies. They are much more easily made and can scarcely fail to be firm and fine. Grapes arc made into jelly in tho same way as currants. The fruit should bo only just ripe, and green grapes, just before they turn, are often used. The most delicious grape jelly is made of the large fox grapes common in thickets in NewtEngland. Plum jelly Is made like grape, and damsan or green gage plums aro used. Quinces and crab-apples seem made for jelly. They cannot be preserved without their syrup running to jelly around tho fruit. Select the quinces, slieo and core them, but pi.t thorn all to­ gether over the fire; cook till tender, allowing a cup of water to evtfry fire pounds of fruit. Press out the juice, and to every pint of juice allow a pound of sugar, and proceed ns with currant jelly. For crab-apple jelly, choose the best Si­ berian apples, cut them in half—do not peel or core—place them in a stone jar set in water in tho same way currant-', but let them remain on the back part?of the range,t he water slowly boilingaround them for seven or eight hours. Set them off the stove at night and in thfc morning strain the cold juice through' a flannel, boil it down twenty minutes and add sugar in the same proportion as in cur­ rants. Ixet it boil up and then fill the bowls. For peach jolly add three-quarters of lhe blanched kernels of tho peach nuts. After tljp juice is pressed out allow a scant pound of sugar to a pound of juice. Cook the juice twenty minutes, add tho sugar, tot it boil up once and-put in tho bowl. Do not seal up any jelly at once, but leave it uncovered till the next day, then place two thin papers dipped in brandy over it and seal it up with paper and paste. Transportation of Fresh Fruits. A great deal of fruit is being shipped East from Sacrementp. The amount is much larger than at this tame last year. Arnpng the shipments has been a car­ load of assorted fruit, put up in the Dietz packing, a recently patented proc­ ess. The Suisun Republican says that the Eresorvative agent is carbonized wheat ran, and that by it fresh fruit is pre­ served from decay, eo that it can be shipped East by alow freight and sold off as the demand is made for it, with­ out being compelled to sacrifice it for fear of loss. The carload shipped goes to Philadelphia.' It contains grapes, plums, peaches, apricots, etc., and goes as fast freight, though hereafter it lathe plan to ship by slow freight, as it will reduce the charges over one-half, ot from >1,100 to $500 a car-load to Now York. If fruit cau be packed in this easy and inexpensive manner, and pre­ served indefinitely and shipped any­ where, the business will develop wonderfullv. “ Fresh peaches at Christmas1 ana grapes at midwinter” are very al­ luring, aud Mr. Dietz says that they may be had bv him ply packing them in' wheat bran reduced to charcoal. We1 •hall see.—San Francisco Alla. Inquiry, “What is tympanitis?” “What is peritonitis?" “How do the doctors find out his temperature?” and-so on. It will serve a। popular purpose to «xex­ .---------------these plain some of th — mutters. The mid­ night bulletin between Sunday, July 3, ' •• “Some tympanitis and' July 4 said: tymp-----------is recognized.” This caused great unwuiness'to neas to the the doctors. doctors. The The meaning meaning of of it it was that the abdomen v of the ..... pafieut ------ — . . . . was „ swelling up like a drum', the swelling being due to aa accumulation of air or ga^es iu the intestinal tube or eWin tbe peritoneum, and this is considered a very unfavorable sign ia injuries like I those of the President. The tympanitis, happily, did not last long enough and wm not suflfeiently great to cause ex. treme danger. The word comes from tympan, a drum—and the swelling from inflation is variously called “tympany,” “wind-dropsy,” and “drum-belly.” doctors I. “--------------Peritonitis,*” which the doct_._ feared also, is an inflammation of tbo peritoneum, a membrane that envelops the intestines and other abdominal or­ gans, and generally the interior of the abdomen. This membrane takes iu nanje from two Greek words which ex­ press its meaning—around and to stretch; 'peritoneum, therefore, mean­ ing in this instance a membrane that stretches around and about the intes­ tines. Inflammation of that membrane, or “ peritonitis,” always marks a dan­ gerous phase of disease or injury from wounds. The temperature of a trick or wounded person indicates the presence or ab­ sence of the inflammatory. condition, -and in cases like this is watched with great solicitude. The temperature is ascertained by placing the bulb of a •mall thermometer, specially adapted to the purpose, in tbe mouth of- the pa­ tient, or sometimes under tho armpit. The average natural heat of the human body in a good condition of health is 98.5 deg. of Fahrenheit’s scale. It is usually marked on our thermometer ns “blood boat” at 98 deg. In very In­ flamed conditions the temperature of patients has been observed to rise as high as 108 deg. in children and 107 deg. in adults. Anything above 104 deg. to 105 deg. is regarded as very serious by physicians. Tho President’s temperature has risen several times to 101.9 deg., or nearly 3.5 above the normal or natural. In • Asiatic cholera, the temperature sometimes sinks as low as 77 deg., when even lhe breath of the patient feels cold.' The fluctuations of the pnl’e are noted carefully in the dally bulletins. In good health, and when the body is quiet, the natural beats of the pulse of an adult male arc about 60 or 70 a minute. There are considerable differences, however, even in healthy persons, according to tbe comparative quiet dr activity of the body, and wheth­ er standing, sitting, or lying down. There are differences, too, at different periods of the day, tho greatest frequen­ cy of the pulse beats occuring about the middle of the day, and the least about midnight. All other things being equal, the pulse is quicker in the morning than in the evening. In conditions of pro­ found coma (morbid sleep) or lethargy the pulsd-beats have dropped ns low as 17 in a minute, and they have mounted up to as high as 200 in children afflicted with water on the brain. Since his in­ jury, the President’s pulse has fluctuated from 94 beats in a minute to 126. This last is about twice as frequent as tbe pulse-boats in a state of health and in a quiet, recumbent position. Frequency of “respiration” is like­ wise a feature of tho bulletins. Since he was wounded his respiration has ranged from 19 to 24 breathings a min­ ute. In health, and when free from any exciting cause, the number of breath­ ings per minute is 14 to 18; but in con­ ditions of disease it sometimes falls as iow as»7 breaths a minute and rises as high a, 100. Of course, marly people understand all about wliat is printed in tho forego­ ing remarks, but there are some who do not, and others who did know and have forgotten. It will do no harm to any of them, even those best informed, to go over tho matter again.—Philadelphia Ledger. Deaths from Lightning.

A special cellar, not connected with the house cellar, is sunk deep, lined with straw and mortar, and rising only three inches above the surface, where there is a small window. The cover of tho cellar is double, and filled with moss or saw­ dust, over which is a roof. The bar­ relled apples are placed in the cellar just before severe frosta, through a trap­ door, which is then closed and packed. The fruit is taken out at intervals dur­ ing mild days in winter, for market or for other uses. In all case a fruit-room should bo entirely separate from other apartments; if in the basement of the house, a sufficient brick partition should divide it from the rest of the cellar, and hanging windows and thermometers regulate the temperature. —Professor Fontaine gives some hints foi; abating the mosquito pest which is sure to come with the advent of sunny days. First, he says, mosquitoes re­ quire water for the deposit of their eggs and the rearing of their larva)or wiggle­ tails. Therefore, all cisterns should bo made close and covered with close, woven brass wire netting to prevent their laying in them. No old tubs, bar­ rels or receptacles of water ought to be permitted, und. no stagnant pools left und.-ained within a mile of any dwelling. Then they can be killed by the cheap­ est and most abundant of alkalies, com­ mon lime. Therefore this ought to bo poured into every cesspool and spring. A pound of strong lime to every one-' hundred gallons of stagnant water is sullicient. But even a pound to ono thousand gallons of a cistern of drink­ ing water will kill them, although it will probably pive the water an unpleas­ ant flavor, and"make It v t,ard for most domestic uses. Stable Management. Tho sins committed in the general management of the occupants of the stable are generally not those of igno­ rance. Every farmer is aware that his horses should be noused in well propor­ tioned, commodious, well-ventilated properly-ligh;?d and efficiently drained stables; he is also alive to the fact that good quality and a proper quantity of food, medium temperature, scrupulous cleanliness and general attention to the animal’s comforts, are essential to his well being; the difficulty is that he does not realise the amount of injury result­ ing from neglect of these conditions; he knows that the opposite system is injurious, but he has hardly an idea of the extent to which the mischief reach­ es. It does npt occur to him probably that, if he persists in keeping his horses from tbeir youth in a cold, badlv-con­ structed stable, a compensation In tbe shape of a thick, rough coat will be a necessary result; that accumulation of dirt and moisture about the leg will lead to hardness of integument and disturb­ ance in the circulation and secretive functions, predisposing to cracked heels and grease. He is probably unmindful of the fact that the want of good groom­ ing leaves the skin with its numerous pores obstructed by the accumulation of dirt, and disposes to mange and surfeit; that irritating vapors from stagnant ma­ nure disturb the eyes and nostrils; that inferior food deranges the digestion, and that disproportionate work wears out the animal mechanism with waste­ ful rapidity. Monstrous as ’ it may sound, we have beard it seriously stated that it answers better commer­ cially to work the horses "out” than to take any extra trouble for their preser­ vation. The exact meaning to be at­ tached to the expression “working out” involves a serious reflection on hu­ manity; the practice, we happen to know, is by no means uncommon, al­ though happily among agriculturalists the spirit of competition and specnla- I breeds of | results qt..... w I efforts to produce and fix characteriatics that are required to insure lhe best pecuniary returns, or enhance the profits .rising ft■om rearing these useful do-' | mastic ammals. . In the case of beef, mutton and pork the objects sought are early maturity and the largest percent­ age of prime meat to weight of carcass. Many years of observation and study have brought a vast amount of knowl­ edge peruuning to breeding and man­ agement. It is to such knowledge that wb are indebted for the excellence found in all of ota- improved breeds of useful ani trials....... As a general thing, farmers raise a few horses, cattle and hogs, and of late years more of them keep sheep than was the rule previously. There are those who .make a specialty of some operations subsidiary to that specialty; and this is eminently judicious in many cases; .but farmers generally are not cpecialista in this sense. They raise only such animals, and these only in sueb numbers, as they think necessary in conducting their business to advant­ age. The mistake made by very many, however, is in the kind, and quality of the stock they raise. ’ Many man who are working-small farms think that it will not pay them lo raise improved stock, or that .the cost of improved breeding stock of popular strains of blood, arid of taking c«ro of it, will not compensate them m profitable returns. They could not make a greater mistake. The lessons taught at stock yards and stock shows explode such hasty, pre^ conceived notions. It costs no’ more, nor as much, to raise improved animals than it does to raise tho poorer common sorts. Every one understands the en­ hanced value of well-bred stock when the test of tho butcher's block is ap­ plied, and if sufficient care is exercised, or pains taken, bv our fanning friends, who say they are farming only in a small way and can not afford to buy high-bred stock for breeding purposes, it will not take long before they will change their minds. A common error, also, is the mistaken opinion that to make stock-raising pay it must be done on a large scale; that a large capital is necessary to carry the busmess on successfully; that many broad acres are required; numerous la­ borers kept—some of tnem at high prices —to feed and take care of the “aristo­ cratic” brutes; that rich feed must be purchased or furnished t\t no little cost; that extensive and 'costly stables and barns must be provided, and various other accessories that are presumed to be necessary to the business. It is true that to conduct a stock farm of this kind capital is necessary, but it is also true that there aro hazards to run that are not encountered on * a less pretentious farm, where the operations are not on such an extensive scale. But the point wo desire to emphasize is. that on farms of moderate size more and better stock than is now carried can be kept; and what is kept should be bred upward un­ til it is as near what is desired as possi­ ble. If but a single horse is raised, let it be such an animal as will find ready sale at a paying price; and so of all oth­ er kinds of stock. However small the scale on which a start is made, if the commencement is right and judgment and care aro exercised in breeding, all tho time, in a few years a class of farm animals may bo produced of superior quality, which will represent a money value far greater than that of common stock, and amply remunerate its owner for bis original outlay for breeding stock. —Prairie Farmer. Tho Domestic Tyrant. • No person more completely possesses tho power of creating misery, in his house, than the domestic tyrant, embit­ tering os he doos tho lives of his nearest relatives by his selfishness and exigeant temper. The greatest essentials for hap­ piness in social life are freedom and tcust: but these important elements are banished out of the little home-world ruled over by one of these imperious autocrats. He makes it a rule to exhibit the most profound disregard for the feelings of others, and Dy an indulge ice in covert sneers, harsh and insulting words, the self-cdntrol of his victims w sorely tried. Consciousness of power is no doubt the cause of his overbearing ways. Tho domestic tyrant always has the highest possible appreciation of him­ self. His opinion admits of no question —being his opinion, it must be right, and in an arbitrary manner he expects his family to acquiesce, or to feign ac­ quiescence, with him on all points. He looks upon himself in every sense-as a superior being, far above his surround­ ings. In his own estimation bo is too highly bred and too refined to support the inconveniences of dally occurrences which are endured by others. His or­ ganization is too sensitive and finely strung to tolerate small domestic trou­ ble.:. He. if anything, is only too gen­ erous and virtuous; he feels compassion for himself alone, regretting that the grandeur of his character is not suffi­ ciently appreciated. His moot trifling acta are magnified by him into examples of stupendous liberality. In his com­ plete self-satisfaction, he enounces he is only too good in sacrificing himself, and ho laments that he does not receive the admiration he considers his due. He possesses in the highest degree the power of wounding the feelings of oth­ ers, and by his persistent efforts to mor­ tify their sensibilities, he appears to treat that power as an accomplishment, which be never neglects tc display at every opportunity. The inmates of many an apparently happy home, if questioned os to the background, would bear testimony as to wrung hearts oauwd ly the domestic tyrant. No relief when the front dour shuts behind him, and a focllng of suppressed jov wbas be is sway. Beside the tutaery caused by him to hh household, t «j do­ mestic tyrant most really ezperkmce a medicine. genial, jovial sort of man, and ▼cry likely is looked upon m a rather good-hearted sort of fellow, for ft» only to his family that he shows his teeth.— East anil JFriri. Crab Life. This well-known crustacean ha* a somewhat peculiar life-history.___ gins its existence in‘a decidedly abnor­ mal ttnd unusual fashion. Instead of breaking free from its egg—carried, about by mater Cancer in her,“purse” in company with hundreds of its breth­ ren and sisters,likewise in the egg-state —the young or baby-crab'appears on the stage of existence as ,a curious little creature with an enormous head, and a short, jointed and forked tail. It is no more like the perfect crib thad it is like an alligator. It more nearly resembles an abnormal shrimp on a roving expe­ dition than tho staid, angular crusta­ cean whose progeny it is, and whose likeness—on tbe idea that “like- begets like”—we shall expect it sooner or later to assume. Its big head bears in front two great compound eyes, and is drawn out above and below into.a long pointed spine; while two pajrs of feders and three pairs of jaws complete the furnish­ ings of this'infant crab. Behind the head come at least two Eaira of legs which will bo represented i the perfect crab as “foot-jaws,” and then succeed mere rudiments of six pairs of appendages, of which all but tbe first are represented jn the adult state by the walking legs. Tho jointed tail itself has at first no uelongings in the shape of appendages or aught else, but legs be­ come mapped oat at a later stage on the tail. Now when this young form was first noted by naturalists it was regarded as a new species of crustacean, and was accordingly named a Zoea. Now, how­ ever, wo know that the Zoea shows evi­ dent signs of changing into something different from its youthful state. Its body becomes brooder, and tho limbs behind the head come to resemble those of the full-grown crab. Then tho jaws are completed in their transformations, and by and by the young crab appears before us, a crab *8 to its body, but a lobster as to its tail. For it still retains this latter appendage, and is known In. this second part of its life history as the Megalopa—a name signifying “big­ eyed,” In reference to the large eyes it possesses; which organs have now tocome fixed to tho end of a stalk. Like tho Zoea, the Megalopa stage of crab-life was at first regarded as repre­ senting a new and before unknown ani­ mal form. Changing its skin frequent­ ly, as it did in passing from the Zoea to the “ big-eyed” stage, in which the crab looks more like a lobster than the tail­ less crustacean it is destined to become —the Megalopa or youthful crab begins to assume the full-grown form. The body becomes broader, and the tail grows “ small by degrees and beauti­ fully leas,” until it becomes tucked up under the body, and exists in the ma­ tured crab-existence as tho familiar “ purse’! which children are so fond of prying into. Thus we see that a crab’s body Is, to put it popularly, all head and cheit. The lobster or prawn has not merely a head and chest (united to form the so-called “ head” of that ani­ mal), but a tall or abdomen as well. And from the fact that our crab in its ’nfancy possesses a tail, but afterward loses this appendage, we should be in­ clined, in a zoological sense, to believe that the crabs present a higher crusta­ cean race derived from the lower lob­ sters of their kith and kin. At least, it is certain that lobsters and their kind wore crawling over the rocks and swfmming in the seas of this world’s former epochs, ages before tho crabs appeared. This ranch we know from tho history of fos. —Cha/nl^rs' Journal. Dress Trimmings. With the exception of steel Deads, al! kinds of 'beads will be used again in passementeries a^d other trimmings, such as net with bead embroidery. Open patterns of embroidery in the designs called English and sometimes Saxon embroidery are now imported in cash­ mere and other woolens for dress trimmings. Piece silks are also em­ broidered in the same way across the widths for fronts of skirts, and the em­ broideries for garnitures vary from those two or three inches wide to verybroad flounces that are covered with this open-work. Fringes a foot deep are made of chenille tied in meshes, and with pendent strands that are each fin­ ished with a large cut jet bead. Such fringe is put in rows across the front and side breadths of a dress, and tho jets are so large that they make a noise like that of castanets as the wearer moves. Black fringe is used to trim not only black dresses, bat those of col­ ored satin as well—notably those of dark ruby satin, aud of pearl gray and white. The sleeves in some instances are made of chenille netting without lining. Beaded plush is one of the nov­ elties made into wide galloon for trim­ ming great cloak of black satin or bro­ cade, widi pluaji linings. Among other novelties are flat nails or spikes of gilt, silver, or jet, with large heads, that are used to fasten tho fronts of basques, and are also thrust into cuffs. The large gilt pins now worn in the hair, and like hair-pins, have, had slightly ornamented headu ad­ ded to them, and are now used for fas­ tening up the drapery of orer-dreases. Not more than two of these pins aro needed on an over-skirt, and they are throat in lightly in order to show as much of the pin as possible.—Harper'a Bazar. _____ ________ human ajeunn. ana oe a tree KLrrogtbener of every organ of life, and recognisM as Nature’s b*t“TTT?u,Dcarto|{dj'*pcI*U’ ‘«*hKrataa*. general debility, nervous prostration, want <?i debitthen indeed should tbe newspaper press of the country call tlni ot attention humanity to to meritorious a compound. | We refer to Brow’s Iron Bitters a remedy having the largest sale fa the cast of any medicine ever invented, simply because It has true merit and gives permanent relief. ’ Harald. * Tbe “utterly utter” kind of .talk has infested the street gamins, one of whom, after picking up a more than usually fragrant cigar stump, exclaimed to his friend Jack: “Jack, thia la quite to positively bully I” ' THE GREAT HURLING TOX ROUTE. •ctuier Train* Dally between Chfergo, Ih-> Moines Council Bluffs, Omaha, l.lnceln.

The time is approaching when must do what we can in securing the floral beauties that have been with us the latter part of summer and the first part of autumn. But how many of them will wo have to give un to dieP We really needed them only for'the summer deco­ ration of the grounds; and we have no place to keep them over winter, and be­ sides this it is certain that in the case of many youn£ plants it will be better in every way than those things which we covered, even if all things suited to that end. Still there are some which we will save “anvhow,” and it may be as well to say a few words as to the proper way Io go about it. Of course the leading difficulty is that the plants are so likely to wither up and die away after taking up and potting, and we have therefore to direct our en­ ergies to prevent this very thing. The kind of plaut will decide the treatment. Some things, like carnation or sweet­ william, have a mau of small roots in a close bunch, and with this comparative­ ly small tops. These rarely wither, even under rather poor hands. On the other hand, a geranium has very few roots. It seldom oomee up but all the dirt falls away, and in an unskillful hand all the leaves would fall, and for the whole winter the plants present a sorry sight. To prevent such leaves from withering and drying away is the point. Much may be done with these sprawley-rootod things by watering them well before l>e~ ginning to lift thorn, sad they should have a thorough soaking. Then some of the younger and softer leaves should be picked off, for it is these which are the most reckless in drawing on the plant’s liquid supplies. Of course the plants must be put into their pots or tube at once on lifting, to keep them from drying, and the whole thoroughly soaked with water on completion. Then tbe pots should be set into shade and shelter, where neither sun nor wind can Some plants will not much more/’ u the gurdenera saj be put in tbe full light rfter a day or so, while some may need thia sort of protec­ tion for a week.

No—not there. Here-I’U-Ugh!” The last ejaculation Dan made a.1 he seemed to pull something from the wo­ man’s hair which he threw upon the deck with the “Ugh!” above mentioned. Shortly after the passenger went be­ low and ore long Tucker came on dock. “ Commodore,” said Carter, with a remarkable degree of earnestness in his manner, “is ihe ’oman turned in?” “I rather think sd,” said Tucker, looking at the compass. “Look out, look out. Carter! Why, man alive, you’re two points to the south’ard of your course.” “ Blow me! to I am,” said the man, bringing the helm smartly aport. “But say, didn't you notice anything pecooliar about the old ’oman?” “ Why, Dan, you seem greatly inter­ ested about her.” “Sol am, Commodore, an’ so I am about the coffin, too. Wouldn’t it be well for you and I to overhaul it?” “Pshaw! you’re as scared as a child in a graveyard!" “ No, not a bit. Just hark a bit. That 'oman ain’t no ’oman." The Commodore pronounced the name of hb satanic majesty in the most emphatic manner. “ It’s the truth, Commodore—I por­ tended there was a spider on her hair, and I rubbed my nr.t.d agin her face. By Sam Hyde, if it wasn’t as rough and bearded as a holy-stone. You see, she told me as how I’d let the boom jibe if I didn’t look out. I knowed there was no ’oman there, and so I tried her. Call somebody to the wheel and let’s go and look at tnat coffin.” The Commodore was wonderstruck by what he bad heard, but, with a calm presence of mind that made him what he was, he set coolly to thinking. In a few minutes he called one of the men aft to relieve Carter, and then went down to look after his passenger. The latter had turned in and seemed to be sleeping. Tucker returned and took Carter one side. “ No noise now, Carter; follow me as though nothing had happened.” “ Sartin.” The two approached the main hatch and stooped to raise it, when Dan's hand touched a small ball that seemed to have been pinned up under the break of the hatch. “ It’s a ball of twine,” said he. “ Don’t touch it, but run and get a lantern,” replied Tucker. Carter sprang to obey, and when he returned a number of men had gathered about the spot. The hatch was raised, and tbe Commodore carefully nicked up the bail of twine and found that it was made fast to something below. He de­ scended to the bold, and there he found that the twine ran in beneath the lid of the coffin. He had no doubt in his mind now that there was mischief boxed up below, and sent Carter for something that might answer for a screw-driver. The man soon returned with a stout knife, and the Commodore set to work. He worked very carefully, keeping a bright lookout for the suing. At length the screws were out and the lid very carefully lifted from its place. “ Great God in Heaven!" bunt from the lips of the Commodore. “By Sam Hyde!" dropped like a thunderclap from tLe l‘ps of young Dan. “God bless you, Dan!" said tho Commodore. ' “ I know’d it,” mattered Dan. The two men stood for a moment and gazed into the coffin. There was no dead man there, but in place thereof was material for the death of a score. The ooffin was filled with gun-powder and pitchwood, upon light frame-work in the center were arranged four pistols, all cocked, and the strings entering the coffin from without communicated with the triggers of each. The first movement of the Commo­ dore was to call for water, and when.it was brought he dashed three or four bucketsful into the infernal contrivance and then he breathed more freely. “No, no," he uttered, as he leaped from the hold. “No, no—my men. Do nothing rashly; let me go into the cabin first.” Commodore Tucker strode into the cabin, walking up to the bunk where his passenger lay, and grasping hold of tbe female dress he dragged its wearer out upon the floor. There was a sharp resistance, and the passenger drew a pistol, but it was quickly knocked away —the gown was torn off, and a man came from among the calico and linen. The fellow was assured that his whole Elot had been discovered, and at length e owned that it had been his plan to turn out in the course of the night and get hold of the ball of twine, then he in­ tended to have gone aft, carefully un­ winding tbe string as he went along; then to have got into the boat, cut the falls, and as the boat fell into the water he would have pulled smartly upon the twine. “ And I think you know,” he contin­ ued, with a wicked look, “what would have followed. All I can say is that I’m sorry I didn’t do it." It wm with much difficulty that the Commodore prevented his men from killing the villain on the spot. He proved taled a moment, then be turned away and matteaad to himself: “WeiL well—I can’t blame them. If the murderous villain's gone to death, he's only met a fate which ho deserved. ” Adventare In a New Zealand Voleaae. Prof. Henry A. Ward, formerty of tbe University of Rochester, N. Y., is writ­ ing letters touching his travels iu New Zealand, some of which detail singular experiences. In his last he says: “I came from Aackland by steamer south for 125 miles along the east coast to tho town of Tamanga. I hired a twen­ ty-ton cutter and started to visit the sea volcano. Wc sailed all night and st day-break wo had before us a great mountain of black scoria, 830 feet high, from tbe top of which, with much force, went white clouds of vapor to a height of nearly 2,000 feet. Reaching the shore it wm not easy traveling, for in places the black pebbles of the beach were all astir with water boiling up through them—water so hot that a mis­ step might scald the foot seriously.

Thc barricade in the trouble and danger present themselves in the form of the widow’s stalwart sons and retainers holding the pass armed with pitchforks. The Sheriff's men, regarding this obstruction as more seri­ ous than boiling water, refuse to ad­ vance. The bayonets are ordered up. A partv of police, led by an officer, con­ front the men with the pitchforks, upon whom the officer calls to surrender or take the consequences. They won’t surrender, they say, and they don’t care for the consequences, and saying this they take up a strong position on the stair-landing. “ Prepare to ^charge,” says the officer to his men, and the bay­ oneted rifles drop to thc regulation anSb for charging purposes. “ Charge,” outs the officer, and away go the bay­ onets up the staircase. There is a strug­ gle, short and sharp, and when it is over the men on the landing are in custody and disarmed. They are handcuffed and led out prisoners of war. The process of clearing out every article of furniture is now begun, and when it is completed the woman of the house and her daughter alone remain. They re­ fuse to cross tho threshold, which tho law requires to be done, otherwise the entire proceedings would be abortive. Thp end of it is that the widow and her daughter are carried outside the thresh­ old, and then the legal process is com!»leted. There are loud lamentations rom the women of the crowd; the men are excited, and, probably, but for the presence of what they call “ thc army ” tn such overwhelming force, they would plungo into the scene. The nouso is now garrisoned in the interest of the landlord, and tho troops reform and march off tho ground with their prison­ ers. All this, I think, leads to the con­ clusion that if dramatists who now write “powerful Irish plays ” would give up attempting to invent sensation scenes and stack to the facts as we have them now they would produce plays intensely sensational and nt the same time rigidly true to real life.” STOVE WORKS’ J—M I L11V11ZL n J I BROWS IRON BITTERS n certain cure for al! diseases requiring a complete tonic; espe­ cially Ind Igestion, Dyapcpsia, Inter­ mittent Fevers, Want of Appetite, Loss of Strength, Lack 'of Energy, etc. Enriches thc blood, atrcnglhens the muscles, nnd Rives new life to the nerves.

In regard to the treatment we receiv­ ed from Richmond’* hospital hands, we have naught to complain of, but after a few days’ residence at the metropolis of thc South, and perhaps a few spirit­ ed con faba on thing, post and existing, we found ourselves grown weary of Southern people with their radical sectional views and sympathies, their peculiar brogue and enunciations; weary of viewing battle-fields where thousands of,brave men gave up their lives; weary of viewing buildings, wherein by argument and chicanery, was perpetuated the unholy strife; weary of looking upon South-down negroes and nin les—brown mules, bnndte mules, white mules and grey mules—evidently uo other street mo­ tive power than mules, and we are ready to return to Washington, which was done on ,Monday last, via the Rich­ ifTtcitoburg &Potpttac Railmond, Fred'* * “ ” -road, an extr’ullentljcmttnaged toad and* the favorite/route between Washington and Richmc>nd. •‘Who does not long to look upon thc capitol of the greatest nation the world ever saw!” we mentally ejaculated while ascending the.steps of the mag­ nificent capitol building, conceded by all to be one of the flnfest and best pro­ portioned buildings in the world. It is 751 feet 4 inches long by 324 feet broad, covering an area of three and a half acres of ground and has cost thus far $18,000,000. . We enter the building, through tho central portico 100 feet wide and 65 deep, embelished with 24 pillars and a dozen pilasters, and commence the as­ cent ot the dome, which in point of diameter and height is respectively the the third and fourth largest in the world. At the arch or eye of the dome we are tired enough to rest and stop to look over the railing at the scene in the rotunda. The people appear very small and in walking across tbe rotun­ da seem to step three times their height, a sight so comical that in spite of our weary lower limbs we smile audibly. The reason of this phenomena, if wo can call it such, is: We are looking down a distance of 180 feet directly up­ on them and cannot discern their stat­ ure in the same measure that we can their longitudinal movements. Tho 'place we are resting in is called tho “whispering gallery of tbe capitol,” from reason of the spherical shape of canopy overhead, which enables two persons standing immediately opppsite each other to converse across the con­ cave, a distance of 105 feet, in whispers. On tho canopy above us is painted Brumidig allegorical fresco of the en­ rollment" of Washington among tho gods. Wo ascend the stairway, traversing the top of thc canopy between tho two shells, until wo reach the lantern of the dome, and the most noble view our eyes ever rested upon presents itself to our gaze. The city of Washington, with Its magnificent public buildings, beautiful avenues and parks, and model site', as it were, lies at oux feet. The capitol stands upon a hill 90 feetabovc tbe Potomac, the top of the capitol is 287 feet further up, consequently the reader can easily imagine our altitute and powers of observation. The pe­ destrians, cabs, hacks and street cars look as though they belonged to a Lil­ liputian nation. The various avenues— of which there are twenty, named after the older states of the Union, radiate from the capitol at equi-distant points, after the idea and plan as laid out by General Washington. These avenues 4ire from 130 to 160 feet in width, and * the majority of them arc lined with ■magnificent shade trees. Down Pennvylvaqia avenue, a mile away/stands ■out in r>old relief the white (house aud treasury building. The capitol is surrounded by pieces of fine statuary, including the “Naval Monument,” “Emancipation,” "Greenougb’s Washington,” “Lincoln,” “The Discovery.” “Civilization," “War,” "Peace” and "Freedom," ' which we would l»e pleased to describe did nut space forbid. The first named is the most elegant and costly, and liears this inscription: “In memory of the officers, seamen and marines of tho United States navy who fell in defence of the Union and liberty of their coun­ try, 1861-1866.” . ’ The building that took our eye as next to the capitol in magnificence and solidity is tbe treasury. It is built of Virginia freestone, and granite from Maine, and with Its projecting porticos nnd extended colonnades, presents an sir of solidity to tite eye of the beholder that instinctively causes him to feel _ ______ _, ___ rioas nation are as solid as its treasury, i The outeide measure of the building is * ' -- million dollars.

The smallest bilk the Bureau turns out is $1, and the largest 1 “ 1 I am thc Resurrection and the Life. :He that Itelieveth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live." With subdued and reverent feelinga we pass on towards the house. At the Washington oak we pause an instant to enjoy its refreshing shade and wide ishelter, which was a favorite resting ;place of the retired chieftain, when re­ turning from the warf, where lie waz $10,000. From here we cross over to the Wash, ington monument, which presents a somewhat forlorn appearepce in its unfinished ntate. Workmen are now* busily engaged upon it and its com­ pletion is confidentially looked for­ ward to in a few years. Then’it will boa handsome white marble obelisk 560 feet high, the highest structure, barring tho Tower of the Babel, ever reared by man. It is now up 220 feet. The patent office, covering two squares, and containing hundreds of thousands of models of patents, was Id turn visited, as was also the Smith­ sonian institute, which, with its nu­ merous towers reminds one of the palaces of the old Scotch kings that wc read about. Tho attractions, here, as well as at other buildings and points we visited, might make interesting read­ ing, had we^space to enumerate them, but as we haven’t, wc will speak of the most interesting episode of our visit, which was A TRIP TO MOUNT VERNON. No one should visit Washington, with­ out visiting tbe home of the brave, wise, good, hero and patriot—Wash­ ington, who, when he had won all, rcuonned all, and sought in tho bosom of his family and of nature, retirement from public honors. The aide-wheel steamer W. W. Cor­ coran, makes daily trips from Wash­ ington to Mount Vernon. At 10 a. m., wo were upon her crowded decks, while she slowly moved down tho Po­ tomac. The U. S. arsenal upon our left attracts some attention. It was here in ’64, that, by an explosion of cartridges and signal-rockets, that twenty-one young ladies and girls were instantly killed. Just across the east branch is the government Insane Asy­ lum, and on the Virginia shore is to be seen the Episcopal Seminary of that State. On the Maryland side is Glesboro point, used during the civil *ar as a corral for horses, and a little be­ yond are the naval powder magazines, which were moved from th«r city to this point, some years ago, in conse­ quence of tbe danger to thc capitol in the event of an explosion. As the boat plows steadily and grand­ ly onward, the receding city passes away like a panoramic view, white grandly crowning all' is the capitol with its graceful dome. Soon the in­ teresting old city of Alexandria is reached, which, in the solemp silence of its deserted streets and warehouses and dilapidated moss-covered build­ ings, reminds the traveller of cities in foreign lands. We notice the old-style spire of Christ’s church, of which Wash­ ington was vestryman. Fort Foote, on the Maryland side, is the second land­ ing, and was constructed during the civil war in defence of Alexandria. Fort Washington is the next and last stopping place, and was erected at the suggestion of General Washington in 1790. At this point we obtain oar first glin pee of the Mount Vernon mansion, which is nearly opposite, and situated upon a fine gradual bluff about 300 feet ,above the water, and soon the tolling ,of the bell announces we are approaching the home of Washington. This expression of respect was first given ' by Commodore Gordon,, tbe command<cr of an English fleet, on Aug. 24.1814, i and ever since, each passing steamer i tolls its bell in honor of such greatness ias is found in the lifeqf Washington, i and human greatness never recteved a higher recognition. The mansion and contigious grounds i are owned by the Mount Vernon La< dies ’ Association, who are nobly striv­ i ing to restore and keep them in the icondition they were during the life of their great owner. We land at the wharf, a portion of which was coni structed by Washington, and are met 1 by the courteous superintendent of the I association; As we reach the tomb of I him “who was first in war, first in | peace, and first in the hearts of hia <countrymen,” the male merabere of 1 the party instructively uncover their 1 iHods.

[ Two thousand yearn agon philosoph­ er by the name of Horace wrote n good deal abont the town aud the county, and he weighed ’em hoth and then summed np bis conclusions by saying that the town was the licet place for a rich man to live in and the country was the best place for a poor man to die in, and Inasmuch a* riches were uncertain and death was sure, a man had better settle down in tbe country as sennas be could and be content. That is very good advice; but the trouble is ip being content. No man ia content’ untilbe gets old enough to be a philosopher. Young people are rest­ less and ambitious. The world ia very lovely to them, and I don’t blame ’em for wanting to enjoy it; but I’ve no­ ticed that those who have tho best time in their youth have the poorest in their old age. and like Solomon, are ready to exclaim, “Vanity of vanities, all is vaiity.” TJhe best way is to raise children io/wnri^—to earn their living —and the best plAcc-foirtbfem is in the country on^n fartu. It h a alow way to make looney, and it’s all the bettor for tliat. Hooey made slow is money made sure. A dollar dug out of the ground X is worth five dollars made in town, and is better than a hundred given to a young man. Habits are formed in our youth, and town habits are to spend all that is made. A young man - who is clerking at fifty doUara a month wil’ spend it all ia going to shows and frolicking around, which aint so bad, if it wasent for the habits. Ho gets so after a.whilc that he is always hanker­ ing after shows and sone new excite­ ment. The country to him is an awful dull place. He has more time to think and study; but a town boy doesn't want to think. It’s not his brain fie wants to exercise, but it’s his emotions and passions. ’ < «t businem we have an account of.

Bnt then it’s most always too late. His children have got a taste for society with its follieeaud excitements and they can’t give it up, and us for work they just can’t do it and they won’t.

Many timM troops were acM after him that never returned. Ab->ul this time came ths French, who, hear­ ing of his many exploits and influence with tho Indians, made overtures to him to. Join them, promising $30,000 per month to pay his men. Lerada accept­ ed and went, with eight thousand men, to Msaatisn, reoeivea the fihrt install­ ment, came ffiack to Topic, disbanded them, and put the money in his'pocket. He afterward received the same sum regularly, ind as regularly he pocketed it. This wm the beginning of his political prominence, and he rapidly made advancement in bis endeavors for a complete control of the government of this sec­ tion of the Republic. He ap­ pears to have been a terribly revengeful man, and anyone that bo imagined had done him any injury lived but a little time after. On one occasion, at a ball in Tepic, be observed an official of the Government in conversation with a sen-* crita with whom he was enamored. He directed one of-his,own officers to go to him and tell him to leave the house. Lorads, seeing tho official still convers­ ing with the young lady,again called his officer and asked if ho obeyed him, and at the same time pointed'to tho pistol which the officer carried,asking if he was aware to what uso such an instrument WM put. “ Now go to that man,” he said, “t id take him by the beard and ’lead‘ him from the house.” . The officer, well knowing that if he disobeyed his own he as was life would be forfeited,_asdid Lg told. On another occasion he sent an Indian with a watch and a sum of mon­ ey from his place at San Luis to Tepic. Tho Indian stole both, pawning the watch. Ho was apprehended and dhot, and so, too, the poor pawnbroker and tho innocent purchaser of tho watch from the latter—both were arrested and shot by order of Lerada. But his am­ bition for extended power ruined him. His frequent successes had led him to believe that he could capture Guadalaiara, and with eight thousand Indians he started for that city, when, after n well-fought battle, ho was routed and obliged to return to Topic, having lost tho prestige ho had gained in eighteen years, as well as tho confidence of his officers. The latter “ wont back on him,” and one ** gave him away,” re­ ceiving, it is said, a considerable sum for tho information; and so at last I>erada was captured and soon after was shot near the bridge crossing the river passing this city. lie begged earnestly for his life, one parsan assuring mo that he offered to liquidate tho American debt if released. But it was of no uso; his death was inevitable, and whiM pro­ testing that his actions had been for the good of tho Indians, whoso chief he was, the drums were rolled, a volley of musketry was heard, and the career of i Lerada was at an end. As to his wealth during his lifetime, there uro many stories. Ono is that barrels of gold and silver were carried at his order to the mountains and there deposited by four mon, who, after fin­ ishing the work, were, of course, shot, that it might not be divulged. There is at Santiago an old man who tells that he, in company with another, Ateiro, came to Tepic in the night-time, escort­ ing Lerada and six mules heavily laden wilh gold and silver bars, brought from the mountains in the vicinity of SantiaSo, and which were deposited in Leraa’a house; that after their arrival he was sent out to buy n^jscal. and as he had a weakness for the “vinecelestial,' he drank too much, got drunk, and did not return to the house. In. the morn­ ing the mules were found astray. Lerada was on his way to Guadalajara, and the other man, his companion, never was heard of again. His ideas of discipline were as severe as his ideas of many other things. It was his custom to re­ view his 24,000 Indians on the first Sun­ day of every month at 8 o’clock a. m., and it was expected that every man would be present or with sufficient ex­ cuse. As they had to come from many leagues away it would not seem strange if there were many delinquents. On bne occasion, at effie of these reviews, when those present were in the line, one un­ fortunate arrived ten minutes late.

A correspondent writing from Geno­ va, Ga., says: •* The largest rattlesnake of tho season was killed near hero this week by Alph Brown, an old freedman. It measured four fee; and seven inches in length, and had eleven rattles. Alph says ho has known the anake to be on his premises for five years, but for two years he has been jn missir missing until lastdiscovered under his f week. He was C dwelling by his wife. Ho sdys aho was preparing dinner and had noticed her Kt cat about half way through a burned le in tho floor, which was his way of entering the room, and in a fow mo­ ments ms mewing caused hor to think he was in distress. She called ‘Tom­ mie,’ but still ho did not make his en­ trance, and the second time she took him by the neck to pull him through, and behold! the monster had swallowed Tom’s tail, and she came near pulling both through. “ She immediately left for tho field to find Alph to help her conquer the ene­ my. Alph came with his spade, but his house being well planked around tho pillars he decided to try his luck with hot water. He scalded at him for two hours without success. He then went two and a half miles and borrowed a gun, raised a plank in his floor, and gave aim a charge of fifteen buckshot, which put an end to his rattling music. After examining him for some time ho decid­ ed to see what he had been feasting up­ on, and, to his surprise, he found witnin him a pipe, a small pair of scissors, two knife-handles, fourteen rats and a portion of his wife’s soap-gourd. Alph says he is satisfied he planked him up fully two years ago. He has smelled him often but could not find him. This la the seventeenth one he has killed on his place in three years.—Oblumiut (Ga.)

Comparing the condition of the Treasury September 30, 1881, with the condition the same day last year, tbe most strikin* changes are the increase in gold coin and bullion and standard silver dollar* on hand, and In silver certificates outstanding.

Tbe increase last year was $55,400,000. of which $39,150,u00 was in gold, and $16,250,000 In silver. Tbe increase In gold was greater and. In silver les* last year than any year since" the coinage of th standard silver dollar began. Tbe United States notes on band slightly increased last year, notwithstanding the urgent public demand for notes for circula­ tion. The amount on head above the amount required for payment of clearing­ house certificates is $3u,0w,00U against $18,­ 000.000 a year ago. The practice tbe paat year baa been to make 10 per osnL of all payments in silver dollars or certificates, 40 per cent- in gold coin and 50 per cent, in note*. To this rule there I* one important exception. Under an arrangement between tbe Treas­ ury end the New York Clearing House all payment* by the Treasury to this institu­ tion, aggregating $275,000,000 a year, must be made in gold coin or United Steles notes, standard allver dollar#'toot being receivable under its rule*, although sliver certificates are now being paid it by tbe Treasury to some extent tn large denomination*. In lieu of gold coin, for use in payment of custom dues. Aside from any personal views a* to tbe expediency of reviving tbe silver dollar, the Treasurer says It would seem unwise for any branch of the Government to encourage an arrangement bv which coin, which the law hM made full legal tender, is discred­ ited. In referring to the reserve held for the re­ demption of United States notes the TreM­ urer says: u There la no provision in tbe law requiring >pecle reserve for redemption of United States notes. In tbe preparation for the resumption of specie pay menu a fund wm created tn the Treasury.under sec­ tion 8. Resumption act of 1875, by tbe sale ot$96,500,OUC in bond*, and the accumula­ tion ot surplus revenue to protect outstandrox notes. The amount ,ot Ibis fund ha* never been definitely fixed, but it ba* been maintained at about 40 per cent, of United State* notes outstanding. “It ha* usually been assumed thatareeerve of 40 percent, is sufficient for the protection of United States notes, but under the method of computation tbe reserve Is not merely 40 per cent- of liability represented by United State* notes, but also 100 per cent of all other liabilitie*. So far as gold, silver and clearing-house certificate* are concerned, it to necessary, under the law* authorizing tbeir issue, that their full amount should be aet aside tn gold, silver and United States notes, respectively, as funds for tbeir redemption, but as to the other liabilities there is no such obligation as this, and it to submitted that no higher re­ serve is required for tbeir protection than is required for the protection of United Steles notes. In the changed condition of trade and commerce, unless some calamity shall overtake tha Nation, there seems to be no probability of a run upon the reeerva of the Treasury. The total demand for coin ia tbe redemption of United stales notes aggre­ gated alnoe resumption but $12,029,036, and no notes whatever have been presented for redemption since February, 1881. reaerves of tbe Treasury, United States notes will be made the basis demand, and not tha other matured obligations, which com­ pose tbe very varied current liabilities of the Govsrnmsnt. The excess ot aaaota over demand for liabilities of tbe Government, eCher than United States notes, is shown by a tabulated statement to be $146,448,491. ” Considering these liabilities as a whole, the TreMurer says: “Il is dear that what­ ever percentage the reeerve will protect. United States notes will protect the other liabilities.” Tbe Treasurer does not attempt to My what this percentage should be, but la ot opinion that a uniform percentage should be fixed for all current liabUIUM otter than tbe three class** of certificate*, and tbe excess of cash la th* Treasury should bo expended, from time to lime, to th* purchase or re­ demption of the public debt, according to some definite and publicly announced plan. Should thb be don* the policy of the De­ partment would cease to be subject to s*eculation,and the iefluenee of tbo TreMary on tbe money market would be reduced to a minimum.

At the time of Mrs. Bradleys sale a mao by tbe name of Etson, of Battle Creek, bought the corn there being 12 acres. When his note was called for he said be bad no signer there, but if Mrs. Bradleys father would meet him at Battle Creek on a certain day ho would give signer. He met him according to promise when Etson said that be would pay Mrs. Bradley $30 in advance and .pay for the corn aa he hauled it. He then camt and told Mrs. Bradley that he bad made arrangements with her father about the corn and it would be all right. He set men to busking it and commenced hanling. Soon Mis. Bradley got scaled and forbid him hauling. Etson {paid her $8 and tail it would be all right. He had had 100 bushels, when she forbid him again. Etson ’came up with his teams and told her if sbe^would take him to Belle­ vue he would get her $50. She went and when they arrived there Etson said that one man be expected to ac­ commodate him bad gone to Olivet and he could not get tbe money tliat day, and took th© cars for Battle Creek. At the same time he had hired E. Ashley to haul three loads to the Center, and bis two teams had taken 2 loads to the Creek, making in all 300 bushels. He sold it as fast as he hauled it. At the sale Etoon said he was running a res­ taurant, grocery and meat market at the Creek, but he proves to be worthless. , Later when Mrs. B., went to see him be said he would give bis note, that was all be could do.

ScoUaviUs, a pretty village sit- noted for pretty <irb and gallant young men, and among all these the sweetest belie was Miss Ollie Brown, and the handomest beau Mr. Joseph Carpenter. this case, as In many others, the only obstacle was parental objection. -Miss Brown’s mother positively declared that she was not old enough to get married, being only fourteen, and her sweet­ heart’s entreaties were in vain. The young people made one or two ineffect­ ual attempts at elopement, but they were never once balked in their deter­ mination to carry out tbe scheme in the sweet by and by. On last Thursday young Mr. Carpenter drove to the reel dance of his sweetheart, and onoe more besought her mother to consent to an early wedding. Mra. Brown was inex­ orable, Miss Brown was tearful, and Mr. Carpenter excited. At last, when every Esyer had been denied, the young man Idly put the question to his sweet­ heart: ' “Will you go with me, or mind your mother and remain at home?” The girl looked up through her tears, first at her mother and then at her lover. “I’ll go with you,” she said, at length. “ Then comeand with these words young Carpenter caught his lady-love in his arms, and, hurrying out of the house, leaped into the buggy that was standing in front of the door.. The horse received a smart blow of the whip and jumped away in a dead run. As soon os Mrs. Brown realized the situation she screamed for assistance at the top of her voice. In a few moments tho little town was wild with excitement, but th© volume of sympathy seemed to be with the young people, who li*<l jn«t whirled through the streets at a terrific ir.te of speed, taking the road that led to Gal­ latin, Tenn. Tbe mother whose daugh­ ter had been stolen wildly besought somebody to go in pursuit of tbe fugi­ tives, and, if possible, stop the wed­ ding. At length Mr. Manion, a young lawyer, and Judge of the Police Court, consented. Ina a few moments he was mounted upon a horse of speed and bot­ tom, rattling odt of the town in the di­ rection taken by the buggy at a pace that would have captured the “ gentle­ man’s cup ’’ at any fair in tho State. From the very start it was a race of whip and spur. The fugitives were evi­ dently making for ’Squire Fikcs’s office, which is just across the Tennessee line, and Judge Manion was hot upon their train. It was a chase long to be re­ membered by the people who witnessed it. In front a horse flecked with foam, going at top speed, and drawing a light buggy, In which a gallant youth sat, witti resolution upon his face, and a beautiful girl nestled. trustingly by his side. Perhaps a mile in tho rear, a sol­ itary horseman, applying whip and spur, thundered along over the level turnpike. The buggy had the best of the race, and pulled up in front of ’Squire Fikes’s office fifteen minutes in the lead ot the man on horseback. The clever ’Squire promptly adjusted his spectacles and read the marriage li­ cense. It was all right; and the cere­ mony would bo performed, so the 'Squire said, and he was on the point of pronouncing the words so feverishly awaited by the young people, when Judge Manion, riding like a professional jockey, bore down upon the party and In the evening Rev.

Mr. Parnell had no -longer the ' place of opprea*ion and opposition to the wishes of the Irish people as ex­ cases for the continuance of on agita­ tion which must, if' allowed by the Government, ultimately reduce Ireland to the condition of a savage clinic. Tbe proof that Mr. Parnell did not ■ want peace, order, or fair play was •een ia tbe ifactthat bis violecne increascd when the measure that had ‘ cost tbe Government a whole Session became^lxw. Mr. Parnell and his par­ ty did not wait fora trial of the Land Bill, but openly advocated a doctrine of plunder and destruction. After the sacrifices made by the Liberal party for ou of Ireland, and after thepicifii a neglect of domestic legthe whole 'illation, v jh has'got'so lunch iu arwill require the labor of rears that_ two or three sessions to sot matters . straight, it has quite exhausted the pa­ tience of the English people and their leaders to see the agitation renewed in a more violent form than before. My firm belief is that the people of Ireland and especially that the mass of the tenautry of that country, constitutinc, ns yon are aware, of themselves consider­ ably more than a moiety of that entire people—I say my ^irm belief is that tbe - mass of that tenantry are earnestly de­ sirous to makefull'tiial of tha equitable provisions which, with great labor, ef­ fect, and resolution, Parliament has introduced into the law of the land. That with which we uro struggling is a power which presumes to go lie tween the people and the law—to make itself tbe judge how far, when, how, and up­ on .what terms the people are to have tbe benefits which Parliament intends for them all, without restriction nnd without reserve. Abroad as well as at home Mr. Gladstone is displaying de­ cision. The instructions sent to Egypt are clear aud to tbe purpose, French and English are square ns to the de­ mand* marie at Cairo and Constanti­ nople, and the mfactads of the two countries. will remain nt Alexandria until tbe departure of tho Turkish ^Commissioners. 'Hie ‘’Salvation Army” is still in n state of great excitement, and, what is Worse, is tbe cause of no little agitation in others. Th® ■'Salvation-Army” does not appear to show sufficient consider­ ation to the feelings of those who be.lieve themselves to be “saved” already, and they are in open antagonism with those whA do not wish to be saved ac­ cording to a military order. Tho re­ sult is unfortunate for those citizens who prefer in their religions views to adopt independent principles, and who above all things believe in order, pence and quiet as essential to the healthy advance of religion. The greatest ob­ jection of all is tli® opportunity aflbrd ed by these processions for die British “rough” and the enterprising burglar. The leaders of ;tbe “Salvation Armv” may believe they are inaugurating a new crusade which will be of immemubenefit to humanity, or they may be simply zealota and fanatics who care ftothiug for consequences so long as their own theories are triumphantly thrust before the world. But of one thing we are assured. Little good to religion can come of repeated conflicts between various classes iu public thor­ oughfares. Whether it lie a Parnell riot, a Fichboone [riot or a "Salvation Army” riot, fighting, swearing, stone throwing, and jostling in the streets ought to lie put down. Right Hon. Sir John R. Mawbray, Conservative member of Parliament for Oxford University, writes to the Time* confirming Professor Gohlwin Smith’d opiaiou concerning the kindly feelings of Americans for England. He says that during an extended tour of the Union he heard tho most affect­ ionate expressions towards England from all classes, aud he believes that the unreasonableness of the Irish agi­ tation and the character of its leaders are ms thoroughly appreciated iu Am­ erica as in England. _________ Augvst.

The Chairman of the Committee on Hygiene of tho- Medical Society, while on a visit to tho West during tho chol­ era epidemic of 1873, had his attention called to tho savory and wholesome condition of oven the commonest Louis­ ville livery stables. They were as dry nnd sweet as a barn. Sawdust was used in large quantities, sometimes in the horse and cow s'alls; at others only in the pathways or passages between them. AH the boards were clean and dry. It is seldom that anyone can go into even what is called a well-appoint­ ed horse or oow stable withouboisgust, but in these common places there WM no occasion for any. On a subsequent visit to Memphis, on the yellow fever question, tho mule pens and yards were found covered with saw­ dust nearly a foot deep. The animals looked sleek and comfortable. > Since these years the Committee on Hygiene has been almost unremitting in its en­ deavors to have tho maladors of stables and other scourges corrected. Dirty stables cause far more injury to the robust and well and incalculably more to tho sick and delicate than is generally supposed, to say nothing of their unmit­ igated nastiness. Very many of the es­ tablishments, including tho stables of milk dealers, are always kept as'sloven­ ly and filthy as if they belonged to tho lowest and most debased classes, and were not surrounded by mansions in which tho •'omforts of life are absolute necessaries. Many cow-stables in Con­ necticut and other country places are now hoerally supplied with sawdust with great benefit to the mil-k, cream and butter. Every ordinary cow-stable is unfit for any civilized human being to go into. The old superstition, born of Ignorance and long, tolerance of filth, that the smells of horses or cow stables is wholesome, is very far from true. The majority of hostlers are ill, and if they have not good food and drink and much pure air elsewhere would seen fall vic­ tims to their dirty avocations. Sawdust and shavings are thrown into the furnaces of wood factories in a most slovenly and wasteful way, pro­ ducing large volumes of dense black smoke, which is oppressive to all in warm or muggy weather, and ia espec­ ially damaging to those who suffer with diseases of the eyes, throat, lungs or heart. An immense quantity of fuel is daily wasted by the careless stoking of wood shavings and sawdust, and it is rather more difficult to prevent smoke while burning shavings than sawdust. There should be no such thing as a foul smelling or disagreeable smelling horse or cow stable in this broad land, as the remedies are so cheap and easy of ap­ plication. The ravages of typhoid and typho-malarial fevers would be ouickly checked, and the defilement of wells and drinking water, and milk diluted with It would soon be ended. Diph­ theria and other malignant throat dis­ eases and foul air bronchitis, consump­ tion and pneumonia would no longer be heard of. • Great epidemics of yellow nnd typhus fever oould n»t ari*e, and the ravages ot malignant smallpox and scarlet fever would be greatly lessened. That any civilized and self-respecting people should have no long not only en­ dured, but fostered the intolerable nui- main him welcome, and Mr. Johnson led off as follows: “ What am do comet?

THESOtTH MANGE AND PORCUPINE MQUBTAINH. ueox. Mich., Nov. 1,^81. I have no donbt the News tenders, or at least a few of them, have expect­ ed to bear from me long before this, bat os I can give a reasonable apology, bone to be forgiven. I had not been in Ontonagon but a few days, when the price of flour, pork and beans ad­ vanced m> wonderfu’ly, that the poor das* of people were unable to procure food enough to keep the grey wolf from the door, aud even the wealth­ ier class of people bad great difficulty in procuring it, as the three large steamers that entered the harbor every' week, failed to supply the demand ’Twas heart-rending sight to see small children on the streets begging food for a poor in valid father, mother, broth er or sister, and crying as though tbeir poor little hearts would break. It grieved rofe terribly to think that I was causing such a panic among such a good. mon*t_and industrious class of people, and I not vyhattodo. .1 kept secrelBd as rhtfcETas possible, but the autbpnties finally succeeded in fer­ reting me out, telling me kindly what I already knew, that 1 was eating one half of tho provisions that the boats brought in to supply the people of On­ tonagon, therefore robbing them of their just supply, and in consequence must leave die town inside of two days. This came a little unexpected to me blit I borrowed no trouble About the matter, as I had the day previous been offered a good salary by my uncle O. N. Andrew*, who is epgaged in ex­ ploring for minerals for himself and eastern capitalists on what is here known as the South Range and Porcu­ pine Mountains, my business to be a helper. I accordingly accepted the liberal offer, using due caution to have it distinctly understood that board should be included. Due arrangements were made for an expedition, the 21st of September be­ ing the time appointed for departure. A team and teamster was procured to convey our supplies as far as Agogebic Lake, which is as far as the road, extend*. (People here call it a road and of conrae I must do likewine, though were it in our country it would be classed impassable,) The morning of the 2I*t dawned beautiful, and just as fair Luna ap* neared to view, over the tree top* on the eastern hill*, and while the birds were singing their mCrning songs, wo departed on our somewhat long and tedious journey. Wo wero not long in passing our supply team, which had started long before daylight, and which was then making such slow . time that I gunned them several time* by a tree to ascertain if they wero moving. ^_When we hatl traveled about Jten miles beneath a hot, scorching san, my feet became so sore 1 found it neccossary fo relieve them of twelve pound* of cowhide, which, a few days before, I had relieved a Nashville merchant of (I never shall forget what a bland smile he wore when he dropped the V into tho money drawer.) While I was palling and straining to get them off. my nncle who was busily engaged in lighting his pipe, had the impudence to ask me how lon^I had been troubled with’corns, I was to provoked to speak but gave the cowhides a sling over my shoulder, and followed on, stopping occasionally to examine my shadow, to see if ’twas noon,for I was getting very anxious to relieve him of the content* of the lunch bag which he was swing­ ing along in his hand. Noon camo at last and just as I shook ■ the bag, and tossed it into a little • stream which came ^trickling down tbe side of a mountain, the thought struck me very forcible that we had nothing for supper, aa our team was not expect­ ed until the next night My nncle finely succeeded in easing my mind, by telling me that there was a man living a few miles ahead where we would put up for the night. I then inquired if said man had any pretty girls, for, I thought, if he did have, I would be more particular, in putting on my clothe*, for I then had my boots, hat. coat and vest off, and wa* thinking quite strongly of taking off the remain­ der of my clothing. My uncle inform­ ed me that Jt was a queer old bachelor, who, perhaps, in other days, liad been disappointed in the article usually call­ ed woman, and chosen tho solitude of the forest in which to pass away a dreary and'disappointed life. He far­ ther ‘ufotmed me that 1 must be pre­ pared to have a hearty laugh, as he was a very comical fellow who was contin­ ually making odd expressions which would make a dog laugh it a foner- par.xl to meet with troubles, calamities, hardships and disadvantages, not known to civilization. We reached the - bachellor’a hone however, a little after dark, and, aa my unefcrarpressed it, wet to the pelt. He had just finished eating his supper and was sitting by the fire place putting away on an. old black pipe, which I judged was one that Noah had left on the summit of Mount Ararat. He seemed pleased to see us and shook our bands with an iron grip. He was very talkative, aud also very inquisitive and confronted me with many questions, some of which I found ‘ to, difficult to answer, he finally wound up by asking me where I was from, and if I was married. It gave me pleasure to say that I was from the beautiful “Maple Grove,” but, M “Wild Bill” says, it ag­ grieved me terribly to say that I was a single man, but I consoled myself with the thought that “where ever there is a will there a way” and that pluck might yet come out victorious, and hope would Bee a star. As be had been so. requisite, I thought that it was no more than fair play for me to ask him a few questions in return, therefore I aaked him why it waa tliat he did not get him a guiding star, and cease liv-, ing such a lonely and dreary life. This direct question seemed to puzzle him for a few moments, but after giv­ ing a few hem’s, and knocking the ashes from his pipe, he said, “Waal, T have often thought tho matrimonal business over and would often conclude to act, only to backslide again when, I thought what a sad fix I would be in. if I should wake up soma morning and find a little plump kid in the bed.” The next ten minutes was a blank to me, aud when I had regained my wind sufficient to set npin my cbair.he hand­ ed me a flask of liquor, saying tliat as I was wet and cold I had better take b “snort,” as it would prevent me from taking cold. I, of course, de­ clined telling him tliat I belonged to the West Kalamo Red Ribbon Club, and tho club hndnever bad a backslider I did not wish to be first offender. Hero he expressed a desire to know more about West Kalamo and asked its population, and who was the most popular men, etc.. I told him of all men in West Kalamo, Wild Bill ranked the highest, also told him that be was a splendid orntor, a splendid writer, a good farmer, was chief engineer of a bracket saw, held a controlling inter­ est in the Nashville Novelty Co., and held the high office of “Lady Defend­ er.” “Lady Defender.” said he, “what’s that f” We then informed him that the legislature had passed a law tliat every town should appoint a good responsi­ bly man to take care of tendersex.when they met with troubles and difficulties, which is hard for them to overcome. And now readers of The News, it would have done your souls good if you could have seen tha old bach’s eyes roll up: “Waal,” “says he,” I sup­ pose they have made new laws and reg­ ulations since I left civilization. He was a strange old man but I. believe ho bad a heart as large as a pumpkin. V. D. A. “Not If It wiw my Boy.’ A $10,000 fire oceur/U at Grand Haven. Wednesday. Tbe new postal cars are being built A.

(utiGura Some years ago the late Horace Mann, the eminent educator, delivered an ad­ dress at the opening of some reforma­ tory institution for boys, during which ho remarked that if only one boy was saved from ruin, it pays for all the cost and care and labor of establishing such an institution as that. After the exercises bail closed, in private conver­ sation, a gentleman rallied Mr. Maun upon his statement, and said to him, “Did yon not color that a little, when you said that all expense and labor would be repaid if it only saved one boy!” “Not it it was my boy,” was the ..jlemn aud convicting reply. Ah ! there is a wonderful value about “my boy.” Other boys may be rude and rough; other boys may be reckless and wild; other buys may seem to require more pains aud labor then they ever will repay; other boys may be left to drift uncared for to the ruin which is so near at hand; but *‘my boy”—it were worth the toil of a lifetime and the lavish wealth of a world to save him from rnin. We .would go the world round to save him from peril, and would bless every hand tliat was stretched out to give him help or wel­ come.

Tbe establishment would employ from 80 to 40 hands, and if the farmers who have stave timber to dis­ pose of will take an interest In the mat­ ter and report the number of cords they can furnish, there is no reason why tbe factory cannot bo established here.

Lmu L PIIIHIM, OF istocratic class abroad from work and trade, blighting life and character, has survived here c only ‘forr ----women, and• | q shadowed their lives with enforced idle­ E ness. Fortunately the cloud is lifting, and items like that just quoted in society papers are proof of it. There ore other like facts of more importance in the J scores of art associations which make money by selling the work of their own members or the members of other asso­ ciations, in cooking exchanges, out of which every woman with skill and a E kitchen makes all the money she can, E and in the steady and increasing prac­ tice of trades and professions by women. Steps in the last direction are often ta­ ken of necessity, but nine-tenths'of the work in a cooking exchange is done by women who twenty-five veers ago would E have hesitated long before selling the work of their hands. The change is a desirable one. An Idle woman is as de­ plorable as an idle man. For a wolleducaHed young woman to waste her days doing odd bits of housework which need no education, as scores of young women do, is at much a waste as it would be for their well-educated broth­ ers to spend their time doing chores about the barn. The time is coming, and Lk altogether nearer than parents imagine, when a- young woman of twenty-live, with brains, health and an education, will consider her life as much wasted with no work to do as any man, and the women who act upon this belief will be spared the mentid rust or '.be unhappy mnrrfclges which idleness in­ flicts on so many admirable women. Marriage will come to such women, as it comes to men. as an incident in life, not as its one chance, and such women will find, as men do, that there is no happi­ ness like the happiness of constant JONAH B.

An old man, bent with infirmities and a misspent life, brought suit against an agent to recover <25- Tbe money, he said, had been promised him for tho privilege of insuring his life, but the agent refused to pay the amount. The prosecutor is a “professional” in the business of having risks taken on his life, he playing the part of a dying man, when in reality his Health is as good as the average man . at his time of life. These profession ul*; charge <5 per <1.­ 000, but ii seems that they are duped by many agents in the following manner: A professional consents to oe insured for fl,000, and is paid <5 cash. Generally speaking, he never reads what he signs, nor does he care much what it is. Ho thinks the papers are for an application for a single policy for f 1,000. The* agent who has him in hand gets his signature half a dozen times on as many different papers. He is told that it is necessary, as the com­ pany is a very strict one. The truth is, the old man has signed for three or four policies, for f 1,000, <2,000, <3,000, and <5,000, tor.which, however, he receives a single fee of <5 only. He imagines that he has been insured for <1,000, whereas the amount on his life is <11,­ 000. This is the way in which such large sums of insurance are placed on the lives of the old people. Old women, helpless and paralytic, poor and palsied, are hoodwinked in the same way. The agents then peddle the policies around the country to whoever will buy. This “watered stoqk," as it is called, forms a leading article for barter in many back country marts. It is a common expression that you can't throw a stone in Eastern Pennsylvania without hitting a graveyard life insurance agent with policies to sell. He has paid <5 to the subject and owns <11,000 worth (of policies. They are in Al companies, that pay full face value ot the policy. The agent thus carries on his sale: “ Now, sir, privately, you know, be­ tween you and me, this policy for <2,(XX) cost me <10 before I got it issued by the company. [Lie No. 1.] The subject is a good one, first class; wont live six months. [Lie No. 2.] Nojy, the policy just at it stands cost me <25. [Lie No. 3.] I will let you have it for <30, and I wouldn’t be a bit surprised but you’d hear of the old paralyzed skeleton being dead in less than six months.” [Lie No. 4.] The policy is sold and duly assigned, for which the company receives <1, the agent makes <20, ana the holder of the policy hunts up his spbject to inspect nim and speculate upon the probabilities of his early demise. it is safe to say that there is more money made in tho sale of policies than in any other branch of tho nefarious traffic. An aged woman consents to have her life insured five times by as many differ­ ent parties for <1,000 each. She then supposes there is <5,000 insurance on her life, whereas she has been tricked and duped, and in reality there is <55,­ 000 on her, which, if she knew all tho facts, would startle her out of her wits. These aged people never do know how much insurance is on their lives. An old woman boasted the other day that she was Insured for <20,000. The fact is (but she does not know it), she is in­ sured for <220,000, and the policies are held by her neighbors, who are anxious­ ly watching and praying for her death. She is lively as a cricket, and laughs at the idea of her dying for the next ten years. To her intimate friends she says: “ Oh, they'll all get tired of this before I’m half.ready to die.” One of the leading voung attorneys at this bar to-day remarked:' “This insu­ rance mania is a terrible thing. A few years ago a client of mine down country owned a fine farm, clear of all debt, and had money in bank and good credit ev­ erywhere. He was induced to go into this graveyard lite insurance specula­ tion, and it has utterly ruined him. Why, his monthly assessments amount to at least <700. He carries policies on old men and old women, but they don’t die. When the policies were sold to him the agents represented the subjects to be half way in their graves. The assess­ ments rain in on him, and for three years he has been bled until now his farm, his home, his all, has been swept from him, his credit at bank is gone, and he is on the verge of despair. In a few months he will have to throw up his pol­ icies. They are bad stock, and nobody will buy them. He can not unload. His ruin is complete. There are many others just like him. Farms are going down in neglect, and families heretofore prosperous are being ruined. No won­ der that men are tempted to murder those they have insured and who will noLdie. About a week ago the farmer I allade to had a death occur in his fa­ vor for <2,000; but when he came to realize on his policy he received only <600, tho company saying that there were only about 400 in that class, in­ stead of 1,000. I was asked to enter suit against the company, but when I examined the policy, I saw that the company promised to pay only so much according, to the number in the class of which the insured was a member. I told my client that he was very lucky in get­ ting tbe <600.” Policies in these crooked companies vary in value just as speculative stocks are affected by the changes in the bul­ letins from the Executive Mansion. A dozen men holding policies on old peo­ ple meet at an insurance exchange. the same. The policy on the subject that is dying appreciates in value, and a sale is either made at an advance or the holder concludes to keep it. He re­ fuses a good offer to-day only to regret it to-morrow when he learns that his subject is not in a dying condition, but getting better.—Beading {Pa.) Cor.

Aside from the swearing of the two men above mentioned, the defense was certainly ex­ cellent, dignified and earnest. The pleas of these attorneys I lid not hear, but I have heard them spoken of as being masterly aud very convicing; that at the close of Mr. Sweexey’* argument, it was freely stated by many that the jury would acquit or disagree, and to show bow near they came to the^rath it is only necccs*ary to state that five of the jurors voted for acquital. The :nau who attempts to belittle the efforts of the defense, can hardly realise what a vic­ tory for the defense it was even to Lave toe prosecution abandon the claim of murder in first degree, and to obtain a compromise ver­ dict of manslaughter, where all the testimony in the case showed a murder of the most hor­ rible and bratil character was more than the defense bad reason to expect and they should be perfectly satisfied with the result. The prosecution, however, had a most diffi­ cult problem to deal with; they must show the case in a light that would negative the thought of delusion or insanity; though to do that with no known knowledge of the motive must appear to the reader as one of the most difficult tasks ever attempted by a prosecution. This point was the weakness of the prosecution and the real strength of the defense. It is so difficult for people to believe a man will commit a hein­ ous crime without an apparent motive, that the theory of Insanity Is dropped into with this ut­ most ease.

Previous to that era the “pound for pound" system was universally practiced, that is, one pound of fruit to one pound of sugar, coiled down to tho consistency of honey and placed in jars with paper covers tied over the mouth. In those days pre­ serves were a -onstant source of care and vexation to the prudent housekeep­ er by their liability to ferment and sour. But rich preserves are by no means out of fashion. Many still prefer them to canned fruit. True, the necessity of boiling down to avoid fermentation no longer exists, for in air-tight cans pre­ serves may be kept perfectly sweet any number of years. There are a variety of ways in which reaches may be prepared for the table. or preserves, take eight pounds of ripe fruit, pared and halved; pour over them seven pounds of white sugar (I use the best grade of A sugar) and let them stand over night to harden before cooking. This process will prevent pcachefrom boiling to pieces. Cook the fruit through, and place in cans in the ordinary way. Another rule is this: Ten pounds of peaches, and the same weight of sugar. Brush tho fruit smooth with a soft, fine brush, and boil in water till soft; melt the sugar and cook a few Deaches al a time in-the syrup; skim them out and add more unci! they are all done; lastly, pour the syrup over the Cinches, which most not be broken in riling or handling. Peaches, pears, apricots and the sweet, mellow varieties of plums should be cooked in the cans. By careful manipulation the interstices may be filled, and no waste of room allowed; take a pudding-stick to assist in packing the fruit in the vessels. Place the rounded half of the pared fruit uppermost in regular i layers, and pack a* close as you like; 1 push the plums in their places in layers ; nave the syrup ready to fill up the cans. This synip is made by adding one pound of sugar to every quart of water, and boiling twenty minutes. When cold, fill the cans even full, and screw down the lids tightly; place the cans in a vessei of cola water; put over the fire; let Che water bubble fifteen minutes after it comes to a boil; remove from the fire, and when the water is nearly cold, take NDY PLUM, manufacturer of Boot* and early part of tho season, and we had a out the cans, and tighten the lids that Shoes.

Tin the spring, when I was thirteen astd my brother Arthur fifteen, the war was at its worst, and my father talked strongly of removing to a greater dis­ tance from the danger. Atootig our few slaves, consistlngonly of two black families, was a half-idiotic young negro named Jason, who had tho priviLge of wardering pretty much as te plaa-ed. He would often remain all dayki the forest, either lying asleep or mocking the gobble of the wild turkeys. One aay he returned with an appear­ ance which startled us.

Something which certainly was no turkey rose a little above tbo stump, between its shat­ tered rim and the grass of the bank. ■ I saw it, too, and my blood ran cold. It was something that greatly resem­ bled the head of an Indian. We felt that the face must be peering through the grass toward my father, while wa saw the black, gleaming hair behind. Witbout doubt it was a Seminole war­ rior in ambush, watching father’s ap­ proach. Mother gave an agonized cry, “What shall I do P—oh! what shall Ido F” she exclaimed.

Once again the Indian’s bead was shown slightly, and we got an instant’s glimpse of Arthur’s rifle. But the black hair disappeared, and the weapon wa* lowered.

A Few Hints to the Diner-Out If by writing this we can induce one man who now wipes his mouth on the tahle-cloth to come up and take higher grounds, and wipe them on his pants, we shall feel amply repaid.

A simple note to your host informing him that your washerwoman refuses to re­ lent is suiUcient. On seating yourself at the table draw off your gloves and put them in your lap under your napldn. Do not put them in tho gravy, as it would ruin the gloves and cast a gloom over the gravy, u you have just cleaned your gloves with benzine you might leave them out in tho front yard. Stones in cherries or other fruits should not be placed upon the table­ cloth, but slid quietly into the pocket of your neighbor or noiselessly tossed un­ der the table.

Tbe 4th day of October we returned toAgogtAic Lake, and taking what provisions we hod left there, we start­ ed for the Porcupine mountains, arriv­ ing there the 7th day of October and again renewing our explorations. On Tuesday nfbrniug bright and early we started for Carp Lake, which is situated in a gorge in the mountains, and tit an elevation of about one thou­ sand feet. After making camp and eating a lunch we ascended to the highest point of the north mountain range, and beheld a eight rarely seen and never to be forgotten. Here nt an elevation of 1.WS feet lay before us a panorama, never yet portrayed by an artist. Looking tn the north, we see before us Lake Superior spread like a mirror beneath the foliage at oar feet: to the northeast lies Isle Royal 00 miles distant Whose low shores are plainly visible. Far beyond, as far as the eye ' can see, to the north and north-east lies tbe north shore distant 80 or 00 miles, whose mountain ranges are pjainly seen with tho naked eye. To the west and southwest lies Lake Su­ perior spreading away to the south­ west, the Apostle Islands are plainly visible and the Black river range of hillsdoee the scene. We were indeed fortunante( for such a sight is rarely so plainly seen, even from this height; and one tbat cannot bo realized or im­ agined, except by those who have been ao fortunate as to witness it. We turn now to the south; here a view is pre­ sented to us, not so extensive and grand, perhaps, asyitac to tbe north, but more varied,picturesque and pleas­ ing to tho eye. Between tho mount­ ains on which we stand and'the south ahore range, is a remarkable gorge,and Carp Lake. We are now on the edge of A precipice.and looking over, and down -%elow 600 feet lies the remarkable body of water called Carp Lake, lying erabmonw.1 in this mountain gorge and 600 feet above the level of Lake Superk>r. Here sheltered and hemmed in by inn tain ranges, tbe wind hardly its surface; and it lieclike a I mirror embosomed [among evergreens, whose long and , Who look __ copper minee in the . world, nestled among these hills, can be seen very plainly the valley of Rockland; but one conspicuous object -is most plainly visible, which my uncle inform* me is the old deserted church edifice on the top of what is called Minnesota Bluff, once the place of worship of a baud of earnest christains, and wboae tower yet points toward the long home where many of its former worshipers have gone. My feeble pen fails to con­ vey but a faint, idea of the beautiful scenery to be seen on these mountains, and only those who have been liere and eqjoyed the sight, can realize bow ut­ terly impossible .it is for me to do it justice, end I tLink likely that J; G. Whittier while ou a visit to this coun­ try in 1847 was inspired Ipr the same grand scenery when he wrote the fol­ lowing: “I bear tbe far-off voyager’s born, I aec tbe Yankee’s trail- On every stream hl* nail.

Some 20 or 30 years ago, when Iron River wasone of the fur stations of John Jacob Astor and tbe American fur company, tbe Indians were known to have silver in its native state in considerable quantities, and the men arc now living yvbo have seen them with largo chunks *aa big-as a man's fist,’ but no one ever succeded in inducing them to tell, or show where the liiddeh treasure lay. A supersti­ tious fear always clung to tl^.ru, and does even to this day,that if they show­ ed any white man a deposit .of mineral tbe'GVeat Manitou’ would punish them with death.” (Several instances similar 'to the fol­ lowing has came under my observation which proves tho superstitious fear of the poor children of the forest.) “Several years since, a half breed In­ dian brought in some very fine samples of vein rock, carrying considerable quantity of native silver. His report was that bis wife had found it on the south range where they were trapping and to test bis story, was sent back for more. In a few days he returned bring­ ing with him quite a large chunck from which was obtained eleven and one-half onces of native silver. lie re­ turned home, went among tho Flambaux Indians and was killed. His wife to this day refuses to-listen to any pro­ posals, or temptations from friend or foe, to show the location of this vein, clinging with religious tenacity to the superaitious fear of her tribe.” “In 1846 or *47, .quite a distinguished party, then on the Lake exploring, sur­ veying, and examining the wonderful mineral discoveries of Lake Superior, were induced by an Indian to go up Iron River, to see a big rock of native diver. They started in wonderful ecatacy for the great riches before them. The Indian led then a fearful and use­ ' less hunt for several days but at last tho party became tired and disgusted and told tbe Indian .before starting (from their camp in the morning) that if he did not bring them to the silver rock before night, they would shoot him. After traveling’till noon the Indian brought them to the bank of a small stream and told them to sit down and ho would find iL In a short time he re­ turned ana told them tbat the 'Great Maniton’had become displeased with him, and bad turned the great silver rock into stone. This be showed them aud the party returned disgusted; weary and ragged, but the Indian was seen no more.” I will here mention ttattbU mm. ,<dn bu Hue. bo,» di»- ALL SIZES AND PRICES TO SUIT —Pennsylvania now holds third place Bought for cash and can awd will be sold cheap.

When Lord Granville some months ago ques­ tioned the intentions of France the mat­ ter was smoothed over in choice diplo­ matic phrases, and, as a French statesment said, “England wm pacified,” but a total contradiction is given to every word then uttered by the facts of a French occupation of Tunis and the complete deposition of the Bey.

The homes were very different, and so was the nature of the trouble; nevertheless, the latter was felt with considerable keenness by the respective inhabitants of both. The firnt of these dwellings was on the south aide of Merrion Square, a goodly mansion, the abode of wealth and luxury. The lady to whom this belonged sat disconsolate in the midst of her rich surroundings. Books and embroidery were on the dainty little flower-decked table at her side, but they wen? untouched; and a rust­ less, troubled expression was on her face while she nervously clasped and unclasped the jeweled hands lying idle in her lap. The door opened, and a footman an­ nounced a visitor. " Oh,” she exclaimed, rising to greet ter, “yon /vol my note. How kind of you to come! I am in such distress.” “And for what?” asked the friend,' •**Tell me all about it” "You remember mv cousin, Emma H-------?” “Of course. But no one has seen her for years. She has shut herself up in her country place ever since her hus­ band died: has she not?” “Yes: and she is rtill a prey to grief. Before they married, her husband gave her, as her engagement ring, a valuable jewel that had been in his family for time out of mind, and had come to him from his mother. It was a diamond — a single stone of great size nnd the Surest water. Of course she valued it □mensely, as, indeed, she would have any gift of a man to whom she was so devoted. Since his death, this ring has been simply inestimable in her eyes— the earnest of happiness ruined so soon. Prized so highly by the giver as an old family possession, and in itself of such exceeding value, it has never left her finger day or night Latterly, she has fancied that the atone was becoming loose in the netting, and spoke of send­ ing the ring to me to have it examined by a jeweler, but could never make up her mind to part with it, eveu for a few days. At last however, the stone came cut She sent it to me, and”—here the speaker broke down—“I have lost it!” "You have lost the stone? How very unfortunate! No wonder you arc ao wretched! Tell me how it hap.nened.” The lady told her story, injuring the details of the grievous misadventure in­ to sympurhetie ears. Her friend, with kind tact abstained from the, “If you had only done this or that:” or, “I wonder you did so-and-so,” common on such occasions; remarks that drive painfully borne the arrow of self-re­ proach and fruitless regret, already stinging so sharply. Even- one is so wise, so full of precautions, after a ■thing has happened. The means that had been adopted for the recovery of the lost treasure were discussed by the two ladies, and fresh measures anxiously suggested. At last the visitor departed, leaving the owner of these gorgeous drawing-rooms with a heavy heart under her “silk attire.” The other home was in a very diflerent quarter of the city. It consisted of one room in a hou.<- let out in “ tene­ ments” to poor families, in. a squalid l ack slum. The place was clean, though bare of everything except mere necessaries; every article of furniture that could be dispensed with, as well as the wearables of the inmates, having gone to the Dawn-shop to procure food. Lying outside the bed. partly dressed, was a man—the wreck of a fine, stal­ wart, broad-shouldered young fellow. He was a day-tahorer. and had lately left the hospital after a long and heavy fit of Hines*.

THE MOUNTAINS FALLING. I A terrible calamity has fallen upon dhis onoe lovely village of Elm. Nine years ago on a bright June morning I saw Elm for the first time. To well de­ scribe Elm as it appeared on that bright day would be no easy task, yet oven the dullest pen could not fail to gain some inspiration from a recollection of the scene. No other spot in all the Alps could boast so many and such varied attractions. Three thousand and odd feet above the level of the sea. it nestled half in the vklley. half clinging to the hillside in a deep basin formed by great mountain peaks which towered above. Just over the village rose the Flatten berg and Mittaghorn to a height offrom4>»9 to 6.70U feat, while Wyoad and all about tlje Fix Segues, 9,­ 806 feel high, the Sanionstook. 9,162 feet high, the Hauastbck. 9,456 feet, and the Vorab, 9,075 feet, all crowned with everlasting snow, reflected tbe bright semmer sun back into the green vfcuey • far below. Three well-sixed brooks, coming from the glaciers oomparatively near st hand, united above the village to form the little River Sernf, which flowed through it to the lowlands far away. On its banks brood fields spread out through the valley, and, though tho season was always short, so carefully were they cultivated that the people never wanted for an abur.dan.ee of vegetables and fruit So situated, so bleaMd by nature, the 1,100 inhabitants of Elm, well housed in strong dwellings of wood aud cement built after the Alpine fashion, lived iudustrioua, healthy, and contented live*. hem did not come without , Indeed, the people of Elm ' , .

The delusion a* to his imprisonment was so well maintained, however, that many of Fielin’* friends could have sworn for a certainty that he was in jaiL They re­ oeived 'letters from him bearing the stamp of too prison of Mozas; and once a month, when the prisoner was al­ lowed to receive vhita, they were ad­ mitted to see him through a grating. Fielin even complained that his incar­ ceration was being rendered unusually rigorous. He was not allowed to write for his newspaper, he said; he was suf­ fering from bronchitis, and yet the doctor would not put him ir the infirm­ ary. These assertions naturally tended to make Fielin more and more interesting-iu the eve* of hi* dupe*, who had no moan* of grossing that the editor of the Vengeur only entered the prison of Mozas on visiting days and spent tho rest of his time discharging the duties of hired spy for the Prefecture and traveling from city to city, always out of France. Among the men who visited Fielin al Mozas was a poor Polish professor named Malinski, a refugee and a con­ spirator of the tranquil, self-contained sort. He spoke little, but reflected much; and that always struck Fielin a* an uncommonly dangerous person, who might some day take a violent resolve , in private and carry it out with implac­ able resolution, without admitting any­ body into hi* confidence. On the third occasion of hi* visiting Mazas he spoke to the prisoner in his usual calm, rather dreamy tone; but 'on going away.he took a somewhat significant farewell of him. “Good-by,” he said. “I am sorry I cannot shake hands with you through the grating, hot if I should not see you again, remember that I thank Jon for the courage which your writings ave put into myTieart.” “Why do you say that? Are you gomg to’Russia?” asked Fielin in an eager whisper through the grating. “Idon’t know; but life is uncer­ tain,” Answered Malinski, piysteriou*ly; “perhaps we shall meet again, per­ haps not. At all events, good-bye!” “Good-bye,” answered Fielin; and, as may be imagined, he lost no time in letting tho police know that Malinski was “simmoring.” as they say in police slang. The Polo was already under surveillance; but from that time he was ceaselessly watched: and on leaving France for Poland a couple of days later, ho was accompanied (thoHgkho knew it not) by a detective. It so happened that at this juncture Fielin was sent to Poland, too. Not having been informed of M:tlinski*5 movements, he found himself st War­ saw at the same time ar- this conspira­ tor; and by an untoward hazard, he chaneod to ba at tho Central Police Offico at the very moment when Malinski was brought in there handcuffed. Malinski know him at once, and stood transfixed with astonishment as he be­ held him. Fiolin turned deadly pale, and thought for a moment of trumping up some story to account for his pres­ ence there; but ho promptly reflected that such a proceeding would be jitter* ly useless, so he decided to brazen it out ■ “Well, Malinski, wc hswo caught you,”*ho said with a nervous laugh. • “Reptile!'’ was the Pole’* only re­ ply, and, striding forward, he spat, in the Frenchman’s face. Fielin trembled from head to' foot— not from shame; such men can feel none, but with terror. The glance of Malinski’* eye* had been murderous. Wiping his countenance a* the prisoner was led away, Fielin turned to one of the police official* who spoke French, andsaiiL in agony: “If that rascal is publicly tried, I am a lost man.” “Don’t be afraid,” answered the of­ ficial, soothingly; “ he will never be IreoMCTta." “ Yes, but he must not be tried in public,” replied Fielin. his knees Knocking together with fright “He will declare in the dock that I am a spy; the thing will gut known, and I shall be assassinated. I could hope for no mercy.” “Those are chances which even' member of our profession is bound to take,” answered the'official in a rather canting tone. Then he mused and ex­ changed a glance with Fielin. “ What is your life worth, my friendF’ “lam not rich,” faltered the terri­ fied Frenchman. “I am appealing to you on ground* of good-fellowship.

However, after a little haggling he consented to strike a bargain, and even made a joke on the subject. “There's many a sovereign paw and glanced menacingly at tho editor- Fielin hesitated a moment; then asked her for her address.

Thuse threads constitute the whole plant­ body, there being nothing to correspond to the organs of the ordinary higher filanta. Ono would look in vain to find, or example, anything to answeg to the leaves or tho roots of common plants. Furthermore the smut plant differs strikingly-from ordinary vegetation in being entirely destitute of a green color. But the vegetable physiologists are agreed that this is simply correlated with its parasitic habit, it being a wallknown fact that all true parasites uro pale in color, or at any rate not green. A piant which is green, that is. which contains tho pigment chlorophyll, is capable of getting a most important part of its food, its carbon, from the air, or rather from the carbonic acid in tho air, but a parasite gate its carbon as wdi m the rest of its food from some other plant by direct stealing, hanoo it has no need of chlorophylL Tho species was long ago designated m Ustilago maydis, the smut of Indian corn. Fischer von Waldheim, an emi­ nent botanist of Warsaw,/-Russia, rias detected the threads of the! «inut plant in Che stem of corn ^lowjZ'almost to the root, and exte^dujg- far out into the leaves. They are always more abun­ dant in the richest parts of the corn plant, and hence in the young kernels, they abound, as may be soon by making thin slices Of the earliest stages cf tho smut as ft appears in tho ears of corn. In these richer parts of tho affected plant the ends of the parasitic threads swell up somewhat, and from their pro­ toplasmic contents form small round spores, which arc at first smooth and light-colored, bat later roughened ex­ ternally and of a deep brown or black color. These spores are set free by tho softening (deliquescing) of the now mature smut-threads; thli is the soft and watery stage of the disease. After this stage the water evaporates, leaving little more than the mass of dork spores, which are now ready to bo blown away by the lightest breath of wind. These spores ore tho reproductive bodies of tho smut plant, and while structurally thev are much simpler than seeds, they still perform the general function of seeds, that is, they sooner or later givo rise to new smut The most careful experiments yot made fail to show the precise method by which the germinating spore sends its threads into the corn; probably 'there are one or more intervening stages between tho spore and tho ap­ pearance of the disease in the corn, as there are in the case of tba rusts, which are to be regarded as quite close rela­ tives of the smuts. But if we do not yet know the complete life-history, wo know certainly that the spores in some way reproduce smut, and that the great­ er the number of spores the. greater will be the amount of the smut It is a matter of common observation that in general the smutted ears increase year by year in a field which as-planted suooessivoly with com. On tho grounds of the Iowa Agricultural.College sevq/al years ago a plat of tlireo-fourths of an acre, planted with sweet oom, wm observed to have a few smutted ears; these were permitted to remain on tho ground and disseminate their spores. Next year the plat was again planted ■with sweet com. and the number of smutted ears was observed to be great­ ly increased. These were again per­ mitted to remain on tho ground. Tho following season swoct com was plant­ ed for the third time, and the smut in this crop was so abundant as to make it difficult to find a sound ear. Tho ex­ periment was carried no further, as it bad demonstrated the fact that the spores when left upon the ground are in good condition to produce smut in the next year’s crop. The remedy is a aimpie one, and consists, first, in care­ fully gathering and Burning all smutted ears and other affected parts of the com. and. second, in being careful not to plant seed which may have spores in contact with and adhering to tno ker- Lying In Fallows.

T ta Emperors of tbe fifth centuiy, evidentJy with an eye to effect, took with the*m in their pub!io. processions. These vol­ umes were bound in a leather of some bright oolor, and were slightly orna­ mented. In the Middle Ages, when many monks became binders for amusement. the typical cover consisted of two heavy boards in. leather or vel­ lum. with comer-plates, bosses, thick clasps and a tasteless profusion of enamels, gold ornaments and precious b tones. The Arabs Bt this period showed more judgment in work of the kind, but if any examples of it found their way to Western Europe the les­ sons they taught wert disregarded. Tbe invention of printing, joined to the revival of letters, naturally led to a resolution in bibliopegy. Books came from 'the press so quickly that a less expensive mode of binding them hid to be devised. The Italians at once solved the problem in the most satisfactory way. Tho unwieldy wooden boards were laid aside in favor of pasteboard with morocco or some other fine leath­ er spread over it, and blind or gold tooling was substituted for enamels and gems in ornamentation. The result wm a gain to art, especially as great painters did not think it beneath their signs for book covers. Most of tbe Italian bindings united richness with the purest taste, and it Is not too much to say that those turned out by Tommaso Mailio have never been surpassed. Before many years hail elapsed a French school of refiure was founded by Grolier, the foremost book oollecter of his time. Modeling • his style upon that of the Italians, he yet gave it independent value and interest, aud to the end of his long life was an enthusiast upon the subject. It is worthy of note that he was the first to put tno title on the back of a volume. In the seventeenth cent­ ury the art of binding declined in Italy, but in France, as m Germany and Flanders, it made good progress. How­ ever prosperous its votaries may have been, their lot was hardly an enviable one, as they did not escape the responsi­ bility attached to tho printer. In 1694, Mr. Cundall informs us, one of them was hung in Paris for having bound a libel on Louis XIV. Before the Revolution broke out la reHure in France shared tho fate of that of Italy, having become clumsy in form and poor in design. England had never possessed a great bookbinder.* but towards the end. of the eighteenth centwy she found one in Roger Payne, who bv his keen sense of artistic beauty and his technical skill might have mode a fortune if he had aotbeen over devoted to the bottle. In his portrait he appears as **a thin, shabby old man, standing in a little room, books on the floor and a glue-pot on the fire.” In this place, which stood in Leicester Square, “were exe­ cuted the most splendid specimens of binding, and here upon tho same shelf were mixed together old shoes and val­ uable leasee, bread and cheese, costly manuscripts and early printed books.” Mr. Cnntlall does not tell ns that Lady Spencer's French maid fainted on see­ ing her mistress in conversation with this unlovely individual, though the an­ ecdote is related on good authority — London Times* Bachelor Life in New York.

But I like him—1 do. no mis­ take; and I believe the Lord's going to bileM ns through him!” . ••Amen!” was neighbor Gray’s hearty response. They hoed a dozen, hills of corn in silence, their hoes keeping time to the merry song of a bird in the orchard. Then Mr. Gray paused to wipe the perspiration from his face. “Thu hot weather’s liable to make Mckness,” said he. “I suppose you’ve beard that one of the Widow Sperry’* boys is down with a fever?” •• Sho I now you don’t say so t ” ex­ claimed the deacon, commisemtingly. “Make it bard for her, won’t it?” ‘Tes. particularly when she’s so lato•* ly Jost her cow.

My cattle never get into tho mill-pond and drown. If they should, I wouldn’t erpect anybody to make ’em up for me. She’d no more call, had the widow, to let her cow run. than I’d have to turn my whole drove cuL” . “it’s a pretty hard case, nevarthetess,” said Mr. Gray. And then tho fragmentary conversa­ tion, tossed piece-meal back and forth across the fence as the neighbors went steadily on with their work, drifted into indifferent channels. e There had been an interested Urtenov to the colloquy narrated above. On the shady side of the wall which separated Deacon Larrabee's orchard and cornfield sat, book in hand, tho Bev. Mr. Wes­ ton. Ho arose, as the chat which floated to his hearing began to be of crops and haying, and walked slowly away along the orchard path with a thoughtful smile upon his face. That night, when the deacdn took the shining milk-pails from the dress­ er aud proceeded to the farm-yard, the young clergyman followed him. He atooa leaning against the bare, watching the yellow stars enmo out in the sky, and looking abroo<' over the deacon’s possessions, shau^wy now, but substanttal enough by daylight “You. are a prosperous man, dea­ con.” A smile o< suprciAe satisfaction over­ spread the deacon’s countenance as he stood for a moment patting the aleck neck of a favorite cow. “Well, yes,” said he; “but I’ve made myself. A pig and a pitchfork, sir, was all Ihnd to begin with.” , “How deus your neighbor Gray gel along F” • Gray? wall, truth to tell, he’ll never be forehanded it he lives to the age of MethuselahHe’s a hard-working mao enough, but why ’tis I can’t tell yon; there’s never a poor creature comes into our town that doesn’t head direct for John Gray’s.

It was all owing to careless­ ness that she lost her cow, and I don’t believe in upholding improvidence. Get to going on that way, and we’d all be on the town farm before we knew It” Mr., Weston wore a thoughtful countenance, yet a-gleam of something like amusement lighted up his eyes. “Will you sell ma one of your cows?” he asked. “I—I have no need of the money now,” replied the deacon hesitatingly. The minister continued: “I heard you say this morning that you would be glad to give a good man extra wages to hbip you through your haying, but that you were afraid it would be difficult to procure the needful assistance at any price, mil you take me, and let mo pay for the cow in that way?” A twinkle, both genial nnd quizzical, dawned in tho deacon’s grey eyes. For a moment he studied the young minisi ter attentively. He was not at all) what his neighbors would have denom­ inated free-handed, yet he had a just ap­ preciation of the quality of benofleenoe in other people. Neither was he a bard man at heart. It was only that' the prosperity which had attended his1 every undertaking caused him to look upon tha lack of it in a neighbor’s af­ fairs as an entirely unnecessary evil—• one which prudence and forethought, might overcome. Now he shook his petitioner’s hand heartily. “ft’s a bargain,” said ha “When will you take the cow off my bands?” “To-night, if you will lend mo your assistance,” was the ready response “Better take one of those I haven't milked,” said the deacon, with a smile, “and save me that trouble.” Accordingly, a little time latte*, tho minister, accompanied by tho deacon, led hU recent acquisition down the farm-house lana, and away Along tho thoroughfare of tho sleepy little hamlet to tljo tiny cotxago whore dwelt Mrs. Sperry and her iwood. There they fastened the animal to a convenient post, rapped softly, and departed, with tho peaceful consciousness which at­ tends upon a worthy deed resting upon one of them, at least, as a mantle. Next morning when the deacon, hoc ou shoulder, was loaving his door-yard for his corn-field, ho encountered Mrs. Sperry- Her eyes were rod, as with long watching dr weeping, .and her thin lips trembled with the emotion which she vainly tndeavorod to con­ cealSho pul out both hands to him. 1 “Deaoon Larrabee,” said s£ie, “I have I come to thank you, and tc ask your ' forgiveness. On, I have had such bard j thoughts of you!—how cruelly hard only God knows—and my own heart. Why, I almost camo to pray that some dreadful misfortune might overtake you!—and all because you'would not sell me tha cow you meant to give mu” ••I—really—I—” began the deacon. Tho situation was a most embarrassing one, aud rendered doubly so by the knowledge that beside tho open win­ dow of tho room appropriated to his library the minister was sitting, no doubt enjoying the conversation in tho fullest measure. “Really, Mrs. Sper­ ry—I—” “Now, don’t try to deny fc,” laughed the widow, a little nervously. “I know the cow. Deacon Larrabee; and—" she laughed again—“I am bowed down with contrition, to think of my unjust feelings towards you. But I shall al­ ways pray that you may prosper, here­ after, deacon; for I am sure you will have a good account of your steward­ ship for the Master." ' The deacon mopped hta scarlet face In sore perplexity. How could ho con­ fess that the gift was none of his? Yet there really seemed no other way ot oscajw from tho uno-horned dilem­ ma in which he found himself, unless— Well, the widow’s generous thanks wore very pleasant to hear; and after a momentary deliberation the old dea­ con’s good souse and genuine manli­ ness eamo to tho fore. He only wished that tho happy thought had been his, the charity his own spontaneous deed. “I am glad If the gift pleases you, Mrs. Sperry," said he, shaking her proffered hand; “and now, please say no more about 1L Go into the house and see tho woman. 1’11 warrant sho has a glass ot jelly for the sick boy." To Mr- Weston later on he said with a laugh, and a jocular twinkle in his eye, ••I’ve kirod my man, and shall not need you; so we’ll shake hands and call it square. I think that's what I meant to do all the while, though I wasn’t really sensible bl iu But I’ll tell yoa ono thing. Brother Weston.

In conversation; good manners re­ strain the vehemence of personal or S feelings, and promote that versawhich enables persons to converse y with strangers, and take a pass­ ing interest in any subject that may bo addressed to them. To listen with patience, hewvover prosy our entertainer may be; to smile at the thrice-told jest; to yield the best seat, or the choicest dish, or the most amusing volume, are acts, not of mere civility, but of kindness or unselfishness, and are among the requirements of good breeding. So of every other prescrilxul rule ot social conduct—oTthat abstinenoe from interruption or contradiction in conveweation; of that suppression of a yawn; of that cheerful countenance, conceal­ ing inward anxiety dr weariness; of those perpetual endeavors to please and to seem pleased, which end In becoming a second nature to those who are txalqod to^raotioe such acts In their dally home seiQsbness. Its Thus we see that goodness fa the pa­ rent of'politeness, and tha^., Badness is the parent of vulgarity, fer Is do) bad temper vulgar? Is not selfishness vul­ gar? Are not greediness, prevarication, tying and dishonesty utterly vulgar? In a word, is not vice vulgar? Let our little ones bo trained lu «Ca at­ mosphere of gentleness and kindness from the nursery upwards; let them grow up in a homo where a rude gest­ ure or an ill-^empored word are alike unknown; whore between father aud mother, master and servant, mistress' and maid, friend and friend, parent and child, prevails the law of truth, of kind­ ness, of consideration for others, and they will not carry into the wortd aught of coarseness, of untruthfulneas or of vulgarity of any kind. Parents must be what they wish their children to be. In no place does the observance of the rules of good manners bear more gratifying results than in the home cir­ cle, where .stripped of their mere for­ mality, tempered with love and fostered by all kindly impulses, they improve the character ana bear their cfaplocsi fruits. . Politeness Is not like a robe of state, to be worn only on occasions of cere­ mony. A truo gentlewoman will show as much courtesy, and observe all the little details of politeness, as unfailing­ ly towards her parents, husband and family as towards the greatest stranger. A true gentleman will never forget that If he is bound to exercise courtesy and kindness in his intercourse with the world, he Is doubly bound to do so in his intercourse with those who depend upon him for advice, protection and ex­ ample. No observances, however minute, that tend to spare the feelings of others, can be classed under the head of trivial­ ities; and politeness, which is but an­ other name for general amiability; will oil the creaking wheels of life more ef­ fectually than any of these unguents suoplied by mere wealth or station. Etiquette is not politeness, but only the mere external vesture of it; too often the more counterfeit. Yet all its Kinta, artificial though they be, should understood. The best gui after all, is tbit kindness of heart which gives honor where honor is due, end which is ever anxious to spare the feel­ ings and the prejudices of others. A well-bred woman takes especial care in the training of her servants, so that her domestic arrangements are car­ ried ou as noiselessly aud easily as if by machinery. She does not talk of the affairs of her kitchen and nursery to her guests. The very atmosphere of a house, and the manners of the servants, proclaim tho refinement or the want of refine­ ment of its mistress. The hous* may be over so small, the furniture ever so simple, yet Irreproachable, cleanliness and neatness will reign aroundThe unexpected guest finds an or­ derly table and an unembarrassed wel­ come. No apologies are made to annoy or to cause discomfiture. Neither chil­ dren nor servants are reproved in the presence of others, but singly aud alone. Scandal finds no favor, ana oonversation never degenerates into gossip, j Peace and good will are the permanent household gods. The first essential of refinement in i life and manner Is a total absence of ] pretensite; And the first point neces­ sary to be considered in the arrange- ! ment and ordering of a home ia that t everything should be on a scale propor- j tionate to the husband’s income. Let all young housekeepers begin life ! by a resolute abnegation ot shams. As 1 wealth Increases expenditures may In­ crease; but never forget that misery Is i the result of living beyond one’s means, i To embellish home, to make happy the liven of those near and dear ones who ' dwell within It, is a task of no little honor, rewarded by no scant meed of j gratitude and praise.--Cor.

I believe it because I have tried it—once in the Ohio Valley and since again In the St. Lawrence Valley; both times With less than •1,000 to begin with. Though an “ M. N.” I am a farmer by blood, train­ ing and practice, not to say by uncon­ querable proclivity. But I have thor­ oughly learnecf, io my experiences, the need of capital proportioned to my un­ dertaking, as an essential condition of anything justly entitled to the name of success. Nine-tenths ot the farmers of America, misled by the experiences of the pioneers, have begun’by attempting more than they could carry out, and have rued V ail their' days. Farming now, in America as in the Old World, Is a business that absolutely demands capital for its successful prosecution. A money fund is just as necessary to be­ ginning in ths business of agriculture as in commerce or manufactures. More than this, farming on borrowed capital (or, what is the same thing, on a hsavfiy mortgaged farm) cannot, ba a rule, be made to succeed. In any busi­ ness whero there is free competition the man with adequate capital wins aad the man who borrows falls. The price of borrowed money and the price of the risk to the lender, added together as they are in the interest rate, is too heavy a load. I often hear farmers Re­ press their surprise nt the fact that money cannot oe borrowed on farm security, no matter how complete, anything like “ bottom rates.” Our town or oar state can hire all the money cenL, are usually more, and in some places or under some circumstanees not uncommon, very much more. Even where “trust deeds” and “power ot sale” mortgages give absolute control of the security to the lender, money can not be had “cheap” cn farm security. The reason for this I have right undir my eve in a neighboring farm, mort­ gaged for only about half its valuation, yet the interest has not been paid for fourysors. The security is good, but that alone k not sufficient to command the use of money at a low rate. The most of those who have money to lend need, and all want their interest to be paid regularly. Mortgaged farms rare­ ly do that. Therefore they pay high rates, notwithstanding the good securi­ ty. Besides thia, the frequent necessi­ ty of taking the land eventually, and the trouble, delay and expense in real­ izing upon it, all tend to keep up the rate of interest on farm mortgages. •Farming, aa conducted amongst ub, cannot bear a "high Intereat rate on. bor­ rowed capital The competition in all staple articles, whether products of the farm, the mine, or the factory, is too dese to give “fancy profits" on any­ thing not protected ny a monopoly law. Thts-Rs particularly truo of farm prod­ ucts In America, with its vast extAit of cheap and fertile land. With only or­ dinary skill and insufflevmt capital a farmer no matter how industrious, Is sure to fail if he lives long enough to see thy end of his experiment. With great skill, energy and “good luck” he may save himself “by the akin of his teeth,” but when he comes to count up he will find—as a finally successful farmer oL that class in Aroostook Coun­ ty, Maine,' whero the land was bought, thirty-five yours ago at 81-25 per acre, told me he found—that ho has paid out more in inUroet than his property was worth. My advtae to indebted farmers has been, for y Ars, to close up their buslness and begin again on a cash basis, however smalt The longer they delay the worse it will be for them. A farmer who knows an^ branch of his business well can support a family upon ten acres. Until he knows enough to do that, he Is incompetent to handle more. He newer should buy more acres than he can pay for. Even then, if he ex­ hausts his money In the purchase of land he must go in debt for stock, im­ plements and family supplies; and it will take a good deal longer to pay for these than it took to run in debt for therm Be sure of one thing—you can­ not hire money to farm with (except under rare and Very exceptional cir­ cumstances) so as to make anything on it A farmer can afford to run in debt for manure; he may even afford to run in debt for labor, for on both bo may make a profit; but I never, ia a long experience, knew a farmer to hire any large Hum of money and realize a proit from it by fanning. My studies m finance (which 1 took up years ago when experience had taught me my need of such knowledge) hare satisfied me that money cannot be hired in America on land security at a low enough rate of interest to give any certain profit to the borrower, no matter how good a farmer he Is.

How the fire commenced c*m<ot yet be deflxltely stated, ud probably It will never be known. Accord­ ing to one version tbc scenery wn* Ignited by a spark from electric machinery• According to another, a workman with an alcohol lamp caused tbo disaster. The former version is the more likely one. Director Helames- “flles" were wrapped In flame* and the net­ work of wpod, ropes and canvas wm burning like tinder. The people on the stage were stupefied with fear at first, and they speedily took to flight In most terrible confusion to­ ward tho ladles’ dressing-rooms, on the left of tbc stage, where a small sulrcase led to Hohenstaufea Strasse. In a moment the cur­ tain flew up and a draft blew it hither and thither until, like a fiery tongue, it darted back and forth from the auditorium to the stage. The fire then txicamc master of the Ring Theater. “ Fire! Arc! the Ring Theater 1* on flre>' On Ring Strasse the flames were already bursting through the roof, and cries, such as Vienna never heard before, filled it. They seemed not like the cries of human beings, but such awful accents as can be heard only In u death struggle. Tho scene was indescrib­ able, all those inside the fated building pushing their way toward the street, which was crowded at all points. The audience from the theater struggled and crushed each other, and confusion reigned supreme. Sud­ denly cries sfere beard from the winacwt of the theater leading to the Ring. The balcony over the entrance was soon emptied, and the cries of those at the windows and of those within the theater were awful, and swelled louder and louder. The mass of people in tho street was growing denser constantly." The following Is the narrative of HerrLindm*n, an actor engaged in the theater: “It wm 0:45, and the second signal had been given to the actors that in a quarter of on hour the performance would begin. I was in my dressing-room, and on bearing the alarm I rushed on the stage and found myself In a sea of flames.

How long docs such a box last you?” “Well—I con hardly say. Perhaps a month, perhaps not so long.” “ But it seems to me, Robert, von rfpt’nd more money on yoarxoi! than yuu do on Kate.” Mrs. Kate hid hor faoe behind T»PIoo'b curia to hide a smile at hor moth­ er-in-law’s light skirmishing. “ What?” said Robert, looking up fo Borpriso. “Why—don't you have money enough. Kato? Why didn’t you toll me, dear?” Her tender heart waa disarmed at oace, and she was about, to protest that sho never wanted anything, but Mrs. Pringkx the older, struck in, with a warning glance at her: “You know, Robert, U is not pleasant for a wife to be always obliged to ask for what sho wants for her own little fancies. Now I think it would be a very good plan for you'to hand her tho same amount you spend in cigars, monthly, say—for her ownjicrsooal gratification.” ‘ “That’s a good suggestion, mother, ra do u.” “Thon bear ki mind.” Mrs. Prin^lo was very fond of clinching a thing when she wont at k, “your best way will ba to keep a careful account of your own expenditure, and hand hex. regularly, the same.” “Agreed, ma'am.” Ho sat for awhile after dinner enjoy­ ing his mother's visit, chatting pleas­ antly, smoking three cigars meanwhile and putting a few more in his pocket as he started down town, never dreaming that, according «to his wile’s mentid ealoulatioa. ho could, burn up more money ie an hour than abo could save by sowing all hor spare time for half a day. . Robert Pringle eouscientiously made an entry, in a corner at his pri­ vate memorandum-book, of every cent he »punl in to baft co during tho follow­ ing month, beginning with tho box of cigars, which lasted exactly eleven days, waa promptly replaced, and smaller Earcha»e«i made as convenient. To do im justice, his really generous and rather ancalcuiating disposition bad gone far, aa his wife' had assorted, to­ ward preventing, on his part, any fair understanding of his own extravagance, for bo. by no means, smoked all ho bought, but in tho usual course of po­ lite exchange which prevails among gentlemen, a man ot hia. open-haaded disposition was sure to boor iho heavier burthen. “ Ph->ow-w-wf he ciaoulated, aa ho coat up the items tor tho month suc­ ceeding his agreement with his mother.

Mo trouble bare •earfWul- only difference between the mat* that •over tho Imperial floor and those of the oottogera is that the former are larger in site and are covered with a gayer border. In ordinary house* this border is black or indigo blue. In the palace it is white. Even, the throne of that now defunct official, the Tycoon, as well as the place of emir.enee of. the Mikado, whom he imitated, was only a sauaro, padded mat, a few inches higher than common, aud edged with variegated colors. A Japanese floor being so substantially covered need bo only of cheap, unplaced wood, laid without mortices. This floor is two and a halt inches bqlow tbe grooved Bills in which tho doors, or rather parwhlvh tbo floor makes, the mate are laid and fit snugly together, lying with tholr surface level with the gflls or grooves. The mats are tho household property of the tenants, aa landlords rent tbe houses uncarpetod, as we do. In ease of a two people pull up these expensive ornaments and ran. A odlleotiou of tatami usually requires the first outlay of a Japanese couple toward housekeeping. Often these exquisite­ ly clean and soft mats are the chief, if not the only, articles of furniture in certain rooms. Tho Chinese for centu­ ries have used chair* and lounges, but the Japanese eschew these luxuries, using the floor and its covering for cer­ emony and the occasions of eating and drinking and sleeping. The tatami serve for tables, bedsteads, ahalse isnd lounging purposes. In palace and hut, alike guiltless of sitting machinery, has grown up that elaborate system of etiSette and eeremonial, rendwned over b world. Only by tbe Generals in the field were folding camp chair* used. In the monastery the Abbott sat in state, or for reflection, in the arm chair. The Japanese have the word “ koshikake” (bxck-r**ter), but these is no general word or equivalent for our simple word “ chair.’’ Most of the obsequiousness anfl exaggerated polite­ ness of the Oriental Islander* may be thus mechanically accounted for. If the superior is no higher than tbc floor the inferior mast bow low indeed. To salute properly, indoors, one must turn his head mto a temporary teok-bammur and pound vigorously on the floor. The various kinds of mats woven by the Japanese besides t&tami aro the luushircx or coarso rice straw mat used by farmers to dry grain; komo, with which wine cask* aro wrapped; gams, made of cat-tail rush, and the various kinds of rattan matting for covering tea chests, etc. The mat-weaving in­ dustry is carried on in every province, ahd the value in 1877 of matting prop­ er was $1,500,000, and woven reed aud bamboo, $9*27,975. Of course, owing to the cheapness of native labor, these figures would stand much higher in our own oountry. The basts or substratum of the Japanese mat is a weltipg of rice straw, two and one-fourth inches thick, laid together in wisps and compactly drawn together with five warps and plaited along the edges. In this no special skill, but only care, muscle and pressure are required. The surface must be flat and the edges hard nnd square. Tho omote, which forms the beauti­ ful front face of the- tatami. Is made from a fine rush that lines the rivers and water courses of Japan. Thia cov­ ering ia the matting proper, and called goza. The material of it is finer than the average Chinese matting. The weavers are generally women, who work out of doors, with machinery of the most primitive character. It consista of a portable square frame of wood, not more elaborate than a clothes-horse. It is laid on a piece of rou^b matting for a floor. Two upnghts hold two cross­ bars about seven feet apart, which Is a little more than the length to be woven. A light rod run across the top holds tho balls or pay-outs of twine which furnish the warps. These latter number about forty, and are strung over the frame, each a little leu than an inch apart from tho other, and are fastened and kept taut on a bamboo beneath the lowpr crou-pleoe. One girl does the weaving, while another neloots and in­ serts tho straws. When tho proper length of seven feet is woven, tho web is taken out and a now. warp 1* run over the frame and threaded into th a bar. Rolled into bundles, the goza awaits the mat sower. This workman, having laid his rice­ straw mat on a pine table of the regula­ tion dimensions, puts over it the goza. and proceeds with steel nails to pin and stretch it tightly down, as an artist tacks canvas on a picture frame. He then seiys on the black border on the long rides m one would bind carpet, using for this purpose large steel needles. The short or breadthwise ends are stitched underneath, but are not bound with black, as are the other two sides. Thus tightly stretched, the tatami Is a firm, pliant, but not sagging cushion for the feet. Bound up in dozens, they are sent to the large va, or stores, in the oitiae. They last nearly a lifetime, as they are trodden on not with boots, but only with socks. Every traveler in Japan is charmed with these soft, clean, durable mats. Every gentleman, native or foreign; removes his shoe*, clog*, or s&ndals be­ fore he imprints them. Stocking feet fMhion may soma day demand that the tatami find a piano iu our bouses. and multipUes.'1 aIEnd WORD OF advxcz.

K Hindoo Throat Flute. Some singular scientific wonder* tum out to have been known a great while. Here is something almost as queer aa Professor Thoma*Edison's phonograph: The Hindodb have a number ot mu­ sical instruments, some of which claim a high antiquity; but there is one which is extremely curious, not so much from its form or structure as from the fast that it Is played neither with the mouth nor an air-bag nor with strings nor by striking. Ik consists of two small silver trumpets, with a very delicate appa­ ratus within. There are no boles as in a flute. When ths Prince of Wales was in India, the Baboo Rally Proaonnc Bannerjee played os*these instruments before him and excited the greatest in­ terest, completely puzaUng all to con­ ceive how ha really produced the sounds, for he did not p.laoe the moath of the trumpet to hi* Ups but to his neck. Some thought him a ventriloquist, and that the trumpets were merely used to create a false impression. It proved, however, that the variations of sound were produced by the variation in the Quantity of air propelled through by the pulsations of the ueok. being great­ er or lees according to tho pressure of the mouthpiece. Nothing could be more curious than to see tho performer and to hear the soft musical sounds that issued from the sliver trumpets.— YouWs Companion. ' —Mln Helen Dudley of Ellenville, N.

The following amusing narrative is adapted from a story which appeared iW . 9 ■ - * , ' . | ' • | i t “ er. on hl* buri­ cam r to one of the -large y towns, where ho found, upon his arrival, that the time which, under a lapse of memory, he had chosen for bls visit, was most inopportune. “The races were on;” and every house of ac­ commodation was crowded to excess. •Upon application to the landlady of the hotel where he had been in the habit of Staying, he was informed that every bed in the premises had i>een bespoken for a week before hi* coming; and more than this, that even the very floors and tables of the dining-room would be burdened st night with racing-men and weary pleasure-seekess. '•• We are extremely sorry, sir,” said Mrs. Boniface, “that we cannot receive you, an accustomed patron of the house, but under existing circumstances, it is impossible that we can. But,” she added, “ I will give you tho names of some persons in the town who let rooms, and perhaps you will find among them some one who can put you up—at least I hope so.” Our friend took tho list of name* with * rueful face, and at onoe set about the discoven' of a place of rest for tho t all his search^vas fruitless. Every bed and possible “ shake-down” in the whole district was pre-engaged, and if he would remain in the town he must walk the streets until morning. But sooner than do this he resolved to return to his good landlady of former days, and cast himself upon herbenevolent contrivance and svmpathy. ' •• Upon my word, sly,*' she said, “you greatly distress and puzzle me. 1 re­ ally do not know where in the world I can put you.” But after thinking for a moment, she asked: “ Will you con­ sent to occupy the hostler’s room, sir? It stands in a back part of the premises, and perhaps we could manage to make ib—^t least in some degree—comfortaThe traveler thanked her warmiy, - and declared that the accommodation shospoke of was the very thing under the circumstances. In about half an hour the hostler was called, and told to take a lantern and conduct the gentleman to his bedroom. The way proved to ba across a large yard in the rear of the inn. up a step-ladder, along a narrow boarded passage, then up three stairs, and finally through a doorway into the sleeping apartment. Our traveler found, on looking around, that good use had been made of the half hour he had been kept waiting. A carpet had been put on the floor; blankets mid sheets were unexceptionable. ••Good-night, sir” said the hostler, setting down his lantern to furnish some light. “I hope you’ll sleep well, sir; and, indeed, I think you’ll have a bet­ ter chance of doing so here than the gents in the house—you’re away from the noise: and in times like these the streets all night are anything but quiet.” e ■ It was late in the autumn of the year —the nights were long—and our friend, rather tired, fell asleep, and did not wake until the gray dawn of the morning, and not even then had he not been aroused by someone coming along the outer passage with a heavy step and entering hu bedroom. Turning round in his blankets to learn who was the intruder, be perceived a man, tali, gkunt and grim, his throat bare, the sleeves of his shirt rolled up. and his hair all unkempt and standing upright w Uie most disordered manner. The dark flgurs drew near tho traveler’s bed, stooped over hirn and peered down closely in the dim light, evidently anx.ious to find out if the per?K>n lying there ♦as awake. Perceiving that this was t*e ca*e, oar traveler saw him. in the -daaky light, draw himself upright in the room, then solemnly raise one arm, and point with his hand through the —w to a place outside; after which.

The man before whom this awful dumb-show had been performed crouched and trembled in his bed. Ho had often heard of spectral and super­ natural appearances, and bad affected to laugh at those who declared they bolievetTin them. But was not this, after all, and unearthly visitation? It looked extremely like it.. He would not, how­ ever, fully conclude that he had really seen an apparition; yet he would guard against a third invasion of this uncanny guest. He would do what he now re­ membered he had unfortunately Hither­ to neglected—he would fasten the door of his room and thus put a stop to any further ingress. F To his disappointment, however, when he came to secure his room door, he found that it was destitute of all fastenings. Feeling with his fingers in . the dim twilight, no lock nor bolt nor bar could he discover. Here was a desperate fix; and what plan for his safety could ho now resort to? Think­ ing rapidly over the matter, nothing better, it seemed to him, remained to be done than to roll his bedstead head­ foremost sgainst the door, and thus ef­ fectually block up all means of entrance. Luckily, the bedstead was upon casters; it was therefore easily moved, so that our friend had no difficulty in carrying out his scheme, and returned once more to bed somewhat mere certain of immu­ nity from intrusion. He could not, however, settle himself for further sleep; ho had been too much disturbed and unnerved for additional repose, so he resolved to lie awake In his bed until broad daylight A quarter of an hour had but barely passed when our traveler for the third time heaid the same footsteps approach­ ing his bedroom. Ho felt somewhat calm and indifferent, however; for had he not rendered his apartment com­ pletely impregnable? But short-lived was this feeling'Uf confidence, for in a few minutes the steps had reached his door and he heard hands moving over and pressing hard against it Then a violent push was made, and after that another and another, till the bedstead, on its facile casters, was driven back into the middle of the floor. Again his dread visitor approached him, and with tenfold added horrors; for his face and hands were smeared with blood, as was also the knife which, on his second coming, he had carried. Holding it as before in his right hand, he drew the crimson-stained weapon for.the second time across his throat, repeating his ac­ tion once, twice and thrice, and; thcu again shook ominously his disheveled locks, and turning upon his heel, with a look of angry portent, left tho apart­ ment Our traveler was almost sick with terror; he shook in every limb, while the cold perspiration oozed from every pore of his body. He was an unbeliev­ er in apparitions no longer. He could not stand out1 against positive proof, and here he had the clear and certain and repeated demonstration of his bod­ ily senses. When he judged the spec­ ter quite gone and the coast clear he rose and hastily dressed himself, rush­ ing down tho stop-ladde^ and into the inn, where he roused the whole inmates of tho house with his ■' *' cries that some dreadful tragedy had been - committed on tho premises, and that every effort should be made to discover and arrest tho mur­ derer. So much for tho ghost, and now for the laying of it. It turned out, upon inquiry, that the gaunt and grotesque figure which had haunted our traveler was only a poor dumb lad. who was accustomed to help the hostler to kill pigs. On this morning three o! these animals hod to meet the common doom of their kind. The first visit of tho lad to our traveler’s room was to inform his comrade—who, he knew usually Bldpt there—that the hour was come for their deadly work, intimating tho manner of it by the throe passes of nis finger across his throat Upon leaving the room and finding, after due interval, that the hostler—as ho took our traveler to be— had not arisen for his task, he returned the second time, angry that his call had not been obeyed^ and took the slaughtering knife with him, as a token and sign otikrhat the lazy hostler had to get up and do. By the time of his third visit to the room, he had himself done the work of death without the aid of his fellow, and he brought the blood­ stained knife to signify as much, and also in dumb-show to say: ** You may now lie in your bed there for another hour or two, if you IHce; but It has been too bad of you to leave all this tronblesdtne piece of butcher's work to me.” Wo are sorry we cannot add that the traveler was unite pleased either with himself or with the explanation of his fright; for be felt that he had cut rather a sorry figure ia the early morning, and be could not help ob’-erviug that those whom he had aroused with his clamor and terror were slipping back to their rooms with much louder indications of merriment than our hero could proper­ ly appreciate. He took an early train out oi the town, not even troubling his landlady to make breakfast for him.— Chamberf Journal. —••My daughter’s painting,” BuUiber, proudly, stopping befc Call and see it anyway.

They can be secured little by little, at odd times, and the expense hardly felt. And if the time comes when it is best to sell the farm, fifty dollars so invested will often bring five hundred, for a man is wrong who will not insensibly give a higher price for such a farm when he thinks of the pleasant surroundings it offers his wife and children. Farm horses in the fall are often un­ gratefully neglected. Their hard toil in helping with the heavy work of the season onoe over, when only odd jobs await them.it is too frequent a custom to dock them of their grain, and allow them to shift for themselves on the pastures, often without needed shelter from the bleak wind and early frosts of autumn nights. After feeding awhile the poor animals get chilled and run about in the dark in search of warmth, which they often find only at the cost of a stumble or fall, resulting often in a sprain or a cut that injures or disfigures them for life.

After being indicted by the Emperor at Germany in person and forbidden by British orders in council, American meats are now assailed in France.

Would it not be a good idea for our American ladies to take the same inter­ est in domestic industries as the ladies of France and England do in their na­ tional prosperity? The beauty and du­ rability of American silk is universally acknowledged; we have facilities for being producers from the raising of the worm to the manufacturing of the choicest and most original 'fabrics, and yet in some instances such is tl^e absurd prejudice against home creations this silk cannot bo sold here unless it is roj>resented to bo ot foreign brand, and is marked at a higher pneo than is usu­ ally charged for silks made in our very midst and sold by homo merchants as American silks. Why is tlds, when these fabrics compare most favorably in design, coloring and finish to the for­ eign textiles, and are certainly superior fortheir long-wearing qualities? In cotton and woolen materials tho same foolish fancy exists, and a French bunting, which will shrink and crinkle, sells at double the price that an Amer­ ican bunting, which is really waterproof, can command. Tho- exquisite colorings of the cashmeres for spring and sum­ mer wear, in the novel ** accidental” tints, cannot be excelled, and the huos of silks and satins, intended to trim these woolen fabrics, form perfect blendings, combinations or contrasts.

The Origin it tbe Chinese PU’taLL A recent Imperial edict on the sub­ ject calls our attention to the origin of the pigtail, which is now tho^listinctivc mark of the native of the Flowery Land, it is one of tbe strange phenomena of that country, where everything is so ancient and-Wh ere so few innovations have been tolerated, that this practice, which was originally tho badge of con­ quest. should have been not merely ac­ cepted, but permitted to intertwine itself so closely with the National life that it would now require forcible meas­ ures to have tho people to forgo it. For in the days before the Mauchu con­ quest. when the throne was occupied by the great dynasties of antiquity, tho Chinese allowed their hair to grow as bi H It pleased them; and they were l even known to some of their neighbors as the “long-haired race.” But when lhe great soldier Noorhachu marched southwards from Moukden to conquer China and establish the Mancha dynas­ ty, he gave an order to his Lieutenants to compel the people, as they submit­ ted, to shave their heads in' token of the;. surrender. The M&nchus were thus enabled to discover at a glance which of tho Chinese were vanquished and which were not; while the thor­ oughness of their success was expressed in the most formal and emphatic man­ ner. This practice, which was adopted partly from the exigencies arising out of the conquest of the multitudes of China by a mere handful of Tartar sol­ diers, was continued, and became an Integral portion of the Mancha system of Government, and the result has tend­ ed to confirm the wisdom of the found­ ers of the present dynasty. The popu­ lar views on the subject of the pigtail have not vet been ascertained with any degree of certitude; but it may be re­ marked that all the insurrections of the last twenty years have put forward as one of their features the intention torenew this practice, which has there been represented as a badge of conquest. There now, however, seems more chance than ever of its perpetuation.—London Globe. —Ill order to secure her new posses­ sions on the Pacific Coast without an army, Russia has perfected a scheme locating 40,000 families in the A moor country.

For a moment tlie ants were thrown out, and seemed inclined to. leave their work, but soon turned instead to a grass-plant growing near, the long, narrow leaves of which ran dose together. They chose the nearest, and weighted its distal end with damp earth, until it* apex just bent down to the space to be covered. Unfortunately, the bend wm too close to the extremity, aud it threatened to break. To prevent this misfortune the ants gnawed at the base of the leaf un­ til It bent its whole'length and covered the space required. But, as thb does not seem to be quite enough, they heaped damp earth between tbe base of the plant and that of the leaf, until the latter was sufficiently bent. AJfter they had attained their object, they heaped on tbe buttressing leaf the materials required for building tho arched roof. Thb observation naturally leads to two others bv two different observers. Thus, Moggrfdgo says: r‘ I was able to watch tho operation of removing roots which had pierced through their gal­ leries, belonging to seedling plants growing on tno surface, and which was performed by two ants, ono pulling at the free end of the root, and the other gnawing at its fibers where the strain was greatest, until at length it gave way.” Again, as previously quoted in another connection, he says that two ants sometimes combine their efforts, ono stationing itself near the base of a foptstalk and gnawing at tho point of greatest tension, while the other haute upon and twbts it. The other observer to whom I havA referred b McCook, who says of tho harvesting ants of America that ho has seen the “workers, in several cases, leave tho point at which tlioy had be­ gun a cutting, ascend tho blade, and pass as far toward tho point as possible. The blado was thus borne downward, and, as the ant swayed up and down, it really seemed that she was taking ad­ vantage of tho leverage thus gained, an<h was bringing the augmented force to bear upon tho fracture. In two or three cases there appeared to be » di­ vision of labor; that is to say. while tho cutter at tho roots kept on with hte work, another ant climbe<| the firass­ blade and applied the pow^r at tno op­ posite end of tho lever. The position may have boon quite accidental, but it certainly had the appearance of volun­ tary co-eporatlon.—G. J. liemanu, in Popular Science Monthly. Hasty Chicken. There art excellent chickens in Car­ rara, and but for the haste with which they are brought from the hen-coop to the table they would be very good food. Looking out of tho hotel window into the back-yard ono secs a hen busily en­ gaged with a basin of mush. Almost in a moment, in tho twinkling of an eye, the living hen is transformed into a roasted fowl. Tins may seem fanciful and unreal, but it is strictly true. One dav, having a very limited tims in which*to eat a lunch and catch a train for Leghorn, I asked tho waiter of ono of our hotel* if he could giro me a bit of broffbd chicken at short notice. “lam very sorry, sir,” said ho, “but we haven't a chicken in tho house. However, wo have a very nice pigeon. How would you like half a pigoonr’ “Very well, indeed,” I replied, “bnt can you give it to me quickly?” “ Yes, sir, you shall have nim in pre­ cisely twenty minutes by tho clock.” “ A good pigeon, young, tender and plump, is he?’’ “Seo for -yourself, air,” and with that tho waiter led tho way to the kitchen. “Show the gentleman that pigeon, cook,” said the waiter. The cook gravely picked up a broom­ stick and began punching under the ta­ ble, and lo! there came forth my pig­ eon, in the act of hastily swallowing a bit of bread which ho had snatched. from his feed box before fleeing from the cook’* broomstick. Soo what the waiter had promised to do! Ho had promised to kill tho dove, pluok him, clean him in a ousory way and roast him, all in the short space of twenty minutes. A pigeon isn’t a chicken, but if it had been a chicken, tho story would have been the same.— Cor. N. K Tribune. Peculiarities of Pronunciation. Some of our readers may thank us for calling attention to the following sug­ gestion as to the pronunciation ot “u?’ Ninety-nine out of every hundred Northerners will say institoot instead of Institute, dooty for duty—a perfect rhyme for beauty. They will call new and news, noo and noos—and so on through the dozens and hundreds of similar words- Not a dictionary in the English language authorizes this. In student and stupid the “u” has the same sound as in Uupid, and should not be pronounced as stoodeut and stoopid, as so many teachers are in the habit of sounding them. It is a vulgarism to call a door a doah —as we all admit— i* it not as much of a vulgarism to call a newspaper * noospaper? One vulgarism is Northern and the other Southern, that’s the only difference.

Our business men, generally, report that their business, during the past year, has been greater than any previ­ ous year, consequently they are pros­ perous and happy. ’Tis true we have lost acouple of business men, but oth­ ers, who seem as determined as tbeir predecessors to lend their aid and as­ sistance in fayor of enterprise and pro­ gress, have stepped into their shoes, and everything is lovely and promising for the village of Nashville. Let every citizen resolve to use their influence, when opportunity presents, in favor of the village of their adoption, and she will continue co prosper and flourish until rival towns are distanced and left far in the rear. ’ The News has enjoyed a fair share of the prevailing prosperity, and feels binder renewed obligations to its many patrons, especially to its advertiser* by whose liberal favors, more than those received from any other source, have we been enabled to. week by week,make The News attractive and interesting to its reader*.

Church at Barryville, on Christmas eve. was well attended, and all report a fine time. During the day, Santa Claus had built a snow fort, and made it his headquarters for the distribution of presents to the youngsters. When the magazine was opened, it was found to contain 8 150 worth of presents. After they were distributed, and duly exam­ ined, all repaired to the supper room, where a long table, spread with earthly bounties, met their gaze. Ninety-four persons partook of the sumptuous re­ past, furnished by the ladies of the congregation, and did ample justice to the wholesome viands. —A Christmas gathering wes held at the residence of Porter Barnes, on Sat­ urday, which was an enjoyable time for all present. At two o’clock it was an­ nounced that dinner was ready, which proved to be two tables loaded with coarse victuals, such as baked chick­ ens, frosted cakes, mince pies and the like. At six o'clock, a noise was heard in the parlor, and, upon getting a light it was found that Santa Claus had come ready to relieve a Christmas tree of its heavy burden. After about an hour’s>ard labor he succeeded in delivering 117 presents worth >06.85, besides pop corn balls, sacks of nuts and candy to numerous to mention. —A petition, praying the common council of the village of Nashville, to call a special meeting of the legal vot­ ers thereof, for the purpose of voting npon the question of vacating the vil­ lage charter, has been vigorously cir­ culated during during the past week.

Christmas, the sacred holiday, is per* hap* more universally observed by all nations and dialects of people than any other holiday. It calls to remem­ brance the advent of the Savior of the world, tbe tourney of the wise men of the east to Bethlehem of Judea,, and the presentation of gifts to the Young Messiah. This year the holiday camo on Sun­ day, but tbejoyousnessof the occasion was none the less, and it was observed in Nashville in the customary way among the churches, by Christmas gatherings, which took place at their respective bouses of worship, ori Satur evening. * THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH Was handsomely and tastefully decor­ ated with evergreens, and a magnificiently trimmed arch spanned the room over the rostrum. The arch had festoons reaching from it to the sides of the room,an elegant qross ornament­ ed the back of the room, beautifnl tri­ angles the sides. The arch was heavi­ ly loaded with presents, some of which were elegant and costly, and presented a fascinating appearance. The opening exercises'consisted of recitations-by ‘the scholars of the Sun­ day School, interspersed by songs,. duetts and solos. The happy expres­ sion on every countenance told plainer than words that all were delighted, and tbe mementoes of friendship exchang­ ed between teachers and scholars, par­ ents and children added another link to the silken chain of memory and love which binds them in universal friend­ ship. THE M. E. CHURCH Was rapidly filled to its largest seating capacity on Saturday evening by those wishing to witness “Catching Kris Kringle” and the distribution of gifts from the snow bouse and Christmas Chimney. f The exercise* were opened with pray­ er by Rev. A. D. Newton after which a chorus waa sung by a small portion of the Sunday School announting the renowed Kris, followed by a dialogue and old fashioned enrol songs and reci­ tations, refering to the birth of Christ, were then introduced. Tbe closing acene was the catching of Old Kris, which part was assigned to little Hortie Osmun. As she cangirt him between tbe spreading branches of evergreens, before the old fire place, one universal shout of merrjment filled the house. Her voice was unheard amid tbe laughter but after quiet waa restored she finished her part in a very credit­ able manner. Gift* were then distributed and were of various kinds, from the simple toy bat several dead hogs, belonging to for tbe little prattler, to expensive and inr him in a fright- Fowler A.

The presents were neatly and artist­ ically arranged upon tables on the ros­ trum. After tbe opening exercises, a recita­ tion of an acrostic poem was rendered by fourteen little children, each bear­ ing an initial letter which was hung in its respective place on an arch, ont! when completed, the words “Merry Christmas” appeared before the audi'cdcc.

About two miles across the fields from her house lived a Quaker couple, of slender means and painful history. Al­ ways in poverty, they wore often as­ sisted by the Friends who lived round about, and they were kept from starva­ tion mainly through extraneous aid. One winter’s night, about twelve o’clock, th* mother of our friend was in her own room preparing to go to bed. Suddenly it was borne in on her that her two poor oo-religionists two miles off across the fields were in dire want and distress. This conviction was bo strong that she pecked up a basket of provisions, took a lantern, and, late a* it was, set off to the house in question.

The Officer Who Never Drauk. In the early part of tbe late war, when General Grant was in command of the army before Vicksburg, a number of officers were gathered at his head­ quarters having a pleasant social time. One of them invited the party to join in a social glass; all but one accepted. He asked to be excused, saying that he “never drank.” The hour passed, and each went his way to his respective command. A few days after this the officer who declined to drink received a note from General Grant to report at hcadquiu-ters. He obeyed the order and was soon in the presence of the General. Grant said to him: “You were the officer, I believe,,J for their acquaintance was alight, “who remarked the other day that you never drank?” The officer modestly answered that he was. “Then,” continued the General, “you are the man I have been looking for to take charge of the commissary depart­ ment, and I order that you be detailed to that duty.” He served his country faithfully to the close of the war. and was honorably discharged. Years passed and Grant had come to Ue President. ' The officer had settled down to the duties of private life, and the little incident was cherished as a pleasant memory. The trouble on th* border between Texas and Mexico along the Rio Grande attracted the attention of Congress, and a commission was ordered to ascertain the facts and report. Again President Grant remembered the man who “never drank,” and appointed him chairman of the board. The place was accepted, and he entered faithfully upon the work; the report submitted shows the thoroughness with which the duty was discharged. * While engaged in this work he made the acquaintance of a gentleman who owned an extensive cattle ranch in Southern Texas. The acquaintance in­ spired confidence, aud, years after when the Texas gentleman decided to sell his ranch, he placed it in the hands of the man “who never drank,” and during the last month he has effected a sale to an English company of the ranch of 200,000 acres of land and several thou­ sand head of cattle for an even million dollars; oat of which begets s commis­ sion that will be a fortune in these hard times. The company that bought will enter largely upon packing beef for for­ eign markets, slaughtering their meat on their own ranch from their own herds. The superintendence of their business has been tendered to and ac­ cepted by the man who “never drank,” and ho goes in a few days to his now Uold of labor.

She knocked, and it was opened to her. 8he found the couple sitting on two chain in the middle of the room, without food or fire, with only the light of lheir one candle to illumine their utter wretchedness. They had been for two days without food, but they ex­ pressed no surprise when theystw her. They simply said, “ We were waiting to see what the Lord would send us in an­ swer to our prayers.” Forever alter this dear woman and her daughter, our friend, believed in the divine inspiration of that thought, that fear, which sent a delicate lady, then no longer young, two miles acroM the fields on a bleak winter’s night But we were ungodly enough to say, “If this were really divine inspiration, why not have oomo in the daylight? Or, better still, why did not the man go up to the house himself, make his wants known and having them relieved without ex­ posing his benefactress to the risk of losing her life ss the result of her charity?1' When we analyze these stories we always come on some such lapso of common sense as this. To have gone out and sought practically and actively tor help woula have been a more righteous and manly way at seeking the Lord than to remain quietly and supine­ ly in the house, letting others have all the trouble and the risk. Another less touching and far more ghastly story was told us not long since. Some few years ago there was a Spe­ cially horrible and revolting murder in Rfissia. The details were too fearful to be even alluded to here; but we re­ member the story quite well, as it was Sven in the correspondence of the lily press. The friend who told us the following story of presentment—a German-Russian—asked us if we re­ membered this special murder. ,We answered in the affirmative. Then ho said: “I had a strange piece of present­ ment connected with that man. He was my Russian master”—the Counit, our friend, was a Qsrman-Russian from Courland—“ a man whom I never liked, yet of whose private life I knew nothing evil; indeed, there was nothing then to know. One day. when he came to give me my usual lesson, I had the strangest and the most .overpowering feeling. Someone seemed to touch my shoulder and someone seemed to whisper in my ear, ‘Get rid of him.’ When the lesson was over I paid him all I owed him and dismissed him from further attendance, He mode no remark and left in peace. Two days after this a friend of mine, who wanted to take lessons in the Rus­ sian language, asked me for the address of this man.

About three weeks ago the local of the Union gave a notice of a mammoth pie-plant that is now growing on the premises of J. W. Huggins in Sherman's addition. We stated at the time that the largest leaf of this plant, grown from seed put in the ground on the 20th of last April, measured seventeen feet in circumference. Our contemporaries criticised us as though we were the lin­ eal descendant of the celebrated Baron Munchausen, and had inherited all the leading traits of our noted ancestor. This treatment, of course, has been as a thorn in our flesh ever since. We vowed that we v^uld get even. We are now ready to vindicate our honor as a truthful journalist. Yesterday we measured that leaf in the presence of two witnesses—Mr. Huggins and Dr. Port Its circumference was twentyone feet and nine inches. There is no “shenanigan” about this. The plant is somewhat the shape of a palm-leaf fan, with a smooth edge, and not full of deep scallops, as has been surmised by those who had not seen iL Mr. Huggins, who was formerly an Iowa farmer of the old school, has many other “big things’’ growing alongside of this pie-planu We saw a beet of six weeks’ growth that meas­ ured three feet one and a half inches iu circumfercice. and a turnip of tbe same ngo one foot eleven and a half inches in eirgmufrenoe We also saw a email bush, transplanted last spring, that bore a mince which measured eleven and a half inches iu circumference; a fig cut­ ting, pirated about tbe same time, is bearing fruit Besides these there were squashes, watermelons, muskmelon?, tomatoes and flowers, all growing in tropical luxuriance.

The chief, and, as now proved, the only actor in the terrible Brighton Railway tragedy, paid the penalty of his horrible crime at Lewes on Tues­ day. As the time for the execution came nearer, and the wretched culprit felt that he must abandon all hopes of reprieve, the bravado he had previous­ ly indulged in ceased, and he confess­ ed his crime. After a number of pre­ tended confessions and statements— one of them causing much distress and annoyance to a popular actress, to whom he was an utter stranger Lcfroy at length admitted the justice of his sentence, and passed from existence, and from remembrance, save in the Chamber of Horrors of Madame Tussand, where, taking time by the fore­ lock, tbe figure of this notorious crimi­ nal appeared even before hia execu­ tion. It is not a wholesome feature of oar modern life, thia feverish curiosity about persona who have committed in­ famous crimes. There ia some reason for anxiety respecting the state of so­ ciety where such morbid tastes exist, especially as at thia moment nearly a dozen murders stand in the police ’►ooks as unsolved mysteries, moat of them likely enough to remain so. In the case of Lefroy money appears to have been the solo motive inducing him to commit tbe crime. Of the crop returns which have be-n thus far obtained, the following appear to be tbe general resultsIn Great Britain the area reported to bo culti­ vated in 1881 amounts to 82,918,000 acres a« compared with 32,102,000 acres in 1880, an increse of 110,000 acres in all which is ascribed by the collectors for the most part to the enclosure of re­ clamation of mountain and waste land in different parts of the country and is dae in a very small degree to greater accuracy in tbe returns which are now largely compared with the Ordinance Survey, The increase, as has been the case for some years, is exclusively in permanent pasture, the acreage under tillage rather tending to diminish. The area under corn crops is 8,848,000 acres only as compared with 8,876,000 acres ih 1880, a decrease of 28,000 acres. Tbe area under green crops ia 3,070,000 a-res as compared with 3,475,000 an increase 34.U00 acres only. A movement which has gone on without interruption al­ most since the commencement of these returns, and which has, in conjunction with some changes iu definition which ought of bourse to be allowed for, in­ creased the area under permanent pas­ ture from 13,435,*000 acres in 1871 to 14,­ 427,00 acres in 1880, while the arable are fell from 18,003,000 to 10,675,000 acres, has thus been continued during the present year.

Another scheme h the junction of the District and Met­ ropolitan lines at Hammersmith, and the straggling railways to the north of London, such as the Midland Branch to the Harrow-road, are to be connect­ ed. Another very striking scheme, and one which could hardly fail to bo successful, is that for transforming the Regent’s Canal into a Railway. It was •A FULL LINE OF----------first proposed twentv or thirty years ago. but th® project fell through. It would make an important and useful line at a comparatively small coat, and it would run almost entirely in the open air and through populous districts besidex being of great value in con­ necting the .nver aud the docks with irnnortant main lines. But while the growth of the Metropo­ lis suggests—and, in some cases, dcccessitr.tes—these vast works, there is a reverse to the picture of prosperity they present. Everywhere the classes are grotining under the increasing load of taxation. Rates and taxes never be­ come small by degrees and infinitely Bear mind that we are selling goods on a cash basis, and are buying and selling for cash less. There are suburbs of London where within a few weeks they have which enables us to make prices below' our competitors, and as we handle our goods by the nearly doubled in amount, and in the centres of town they have largely in­ case lots, and get better discounts than can be otherwise obtained. creased. The result is that tradesmen and professional men are pressed se­ verely, and the working classes con­ tribute indirectly by having to pay heavier rents.
