"Of all things this is the worst! If I ever in my life expected to hear such news! Why. our Ueorge has gone and got married! D'ye hear?" Good Mrs. Clements pushed her steel-bowed spectacles off her bright eves, and droppetl her letters in her lap, as she turned round to her hus- band, the stout, clever old farmer, who wits contentedly stroking an old white cat "Deacon, d'ye hear?" This time when she asked Hie nues- tion there was a touch of sadness in her voice. "Yes; what if he is married? I'm sure its natural enough. It kind o runs in the family, '|»ears to me." Hut Mrs. Clements would take notice of the little plaosantry, Well if you like it, 1 can tell you I don't. lie needn't think he's comin) here with his fine city bred lady, al nil's, and graces, and liounces and rtif Ilea. There's plenty of good girls here- about that wanted him. Hight in the middle of work, too! To talk of bring ing a lady here in hog-killin' time! do declare, I think (Jeorge is a fool!" A graceful, dainty little lady, in a g a r n e t jMipiin and a rutlled apron, with a small, proudly-poised head, covered witii short, dusky curis, having a pair of dark-blue eyes, so wistful and ten di r, a tiny rosebud of a nioiith, ami dimjile in each pink cheek. That was Mrs. Marion Clements Was it any wonder that Ceorge had fallen in love with her? She sat in the bright little parlor, close lieside the lace-curtained window watching for her loved husband's re- turn; and then when she heard tin click of the latch key in the ball, lie for the welcome kiss. Looking up, she asked— "Havn't you the letter thi!" time George? I've felt sure of it ail day Indeed, I've quite decided what dtesses to take with me." lie smiled and shook his head a cloud passed over her pretty face. "Oh, (ieorge! Isn't it too bad; And do believe they won't write liecause they are sorry you married me." lie put his arm around her neck. "And sujiposing such to 1H> t h e case, do you think it would make any dif- ference with me?" "Oh,no. no! Only it would grieve me so if I knew I had alienated your own parents from you." "And a one-sided alienation it would be too! They have never seen you And when they know you they can' help loving you!" "Oh, George." The exclamation was caused by the kiss accompanying his own liattery. "That's true as preaching. Hy-the- bye, my dear, what would you say the linn sent me off on a travelling tour of six weeks.

Hut Marion, it would lie S-IOO clear gain us.' "What need we care for money ? 1 rather have you." A mischievous.smileplayed over the young man's lips; he was more matter- of-fact than this romantic, tender little wife of his. "I think the addition to our balam at the banker's would be very consol ing for the absence. Hut never mind little jiet. I-et's go down to dinner, hope we'll gel a letter from home soon.' And soon it was; for Marion snatch M1 from his pocket the very next night. Hut her husband's face looked grav and stern, and his eyes looked angi when she looked gleefully over the en velope. "My dear, you imiBt remember 1 care very little what the letter contains. He- member, I did not write it; that you are dearer to me than ever before. K iss me, lirst, while I watch you." A little pang of misdoubt troubled Iter when she glanced over the note; tears stole from under her lashes, and George saw her tender mouth (julver and tremble; then, when she had lin- ished it, she laid her head upon his shoulder and cried. "It was cruel to let you see it, my wounded birdie. Let me burn it And don't forget darling, what our Hible says—that a man shall leave father and mother and cleave to his wife. Y'ou are my precious wife, Marion, and to you 1 turn for all the happiness my life will ever hold." He dried her tears, and then they talked it over. "Just because I am city bred she thinks I am la/y, and haughty, and ditinty, and—' "Never mind, Marion. She will lind out some day. My father—' "Yes,bless the dear old man! He has added;'My love to my daughier Marion.' Oh, I know I should love him, and your mother, too, if she would let me.' ' We will invite them down when I come here. Hy the way, Marion, I will stop at the farm on my way home and invite them down and bring them home with me." "George, dear. I've been thinking about that trip West. I think you luul lietter go lyid leave me at home. It won't be so very long." Marion was eating her egg while she spoke across the little breakfast table. "Spoken like my little true Marion, and when I come back I'll bring you a I'm sure I don't know what to say. The land knows I need help batl enough; but it 'itears to me that a slender midget as you couldn't earn your salt. What did you say your name was?" Mar)' Smith. And. indeed, if you ill try me for a week, I'm sure you ill keep me till the season's over." Mrs, Clements looked out of the indow at the great clouds that were piling gloomily up; and then the wind gave a great wailing shriek around the (timers of the house, "Yon can cook, ken you ? or shake up feather beds—good big ones, forty pounders?" A gleeful little laugh came from Mary's lips. Indeed I can. 1 may not cook to suit you. but I can learn." Mrs. Clements walked out to the huge u|>en fire-place in the kitchen, here the dejicon was shelling com. What d'ye say, deacon ? keep her or not? 1 kind o'like her looks, and the dear knows it 'ud lie a good lift while we're killin'. if she couldn't do no more'n set the table or make mush for the bread." Take her. of course. Hannah. You an- harddriv*. I know. Let her stop a week or so, anyhow." So Mrs. Clements came slowly back and sat down again. You can't get away to-night any- how ; there's a snowstorm been brewfn' these three days, and it's on us now, sure enough. See them 'ere llakes line mid thick. You may as well take your things upstairs to the west garret, and then come down and help me get sii|i- l>er." Then followed directions to the west garret and when she was gone Mrs. Clemeiiis turned to the deacon and said: I never saw a girl before I'd trust up stairs alone. Hut such as her don't steal. 1 can tell you that, if nothing Ise." Directly she came down in a purple irint drees and white apron ; her hair irushed off from her face into a net, a narrow linen collar, fastened with a sailor's loop of narrow ribbon. It seemeu as if she luul life, too, so handi- ly she llitted in and out of the pantry tnd then down the cellar. Then, after the meal, she gathered the dishes in a neat (|uiet way that was perfect bliss to old Mre. Clement's cart. She's determined to earn her bread anyhow, and I like iter turn, too. And the deacon had "taken a shine 2 to Mary Smith. One by one the days wore on; the hog-killing was over and done; long strings of sausages hung in fantastic rings, arranged by Mary's deft lingers; sweet hams and shoulders were piled away in true housewifely manner, and now Man' and Mrs. Cle- ments were sitting in the sunny dining- room, darning, patching and niend- ilff' I don't know what 1 m going to do without you, Mary. I dread to see you pick up your clothes." A blush of pleasure overspread Mary's face. I am so glad you have lieen suited with my work. Indeed I have tried." It ain't the work altogether, thougl goodness knows, you're the smartest gal I've seen this many a day. As I say, it ain't the work, it's you Mary— me and the deacon—" Mary's voice trembled at the kind- ness of the old lady's voice, but she sewed rapidly on, "It's so uncommon lonesome since the lioy left the farm," she went on "but it's worse since he got married. It seems like deserting us altogether.' "Have you a son ? You never men- tioned him ?" "No, George has gone his way, and we must go ours. Yes. he married one of those crack-headed Ixmrding school people, who can't tell the difference between a rolling-pin and a milk pan." Hut despite her scorn,>Mrs. Clements dashed tiff the tears with her brow list. "Is his wife pretty? I suppose you love her dearly?" "1 don't know anything about her, and never want to know. He's left us for her. and us old folks will leave him for her, too. Mary, just turn them cakes around; seems as if they're burning." When Mary had turned the cakes. Mrs. Clements was leaning on the ami of her chair. "Mary, suppositi' you stop with us another month yet. anyhow, i he de on will make it all right." "it isn't the money i care for, Mm. Clements. 1 only wish I might stay always. You don't know how much I love you." "Love us! do you? llless your heart. If |Kior George luul only picked you out, what a comfort it would lie to us all! Hut it can't be helped now," She sighed wearily, then elanced out of the w indow, looked a moment, and then threw down her work. "Itless my soul, if there ain't my son George coming up the lane! Deacon! deacon! (ieorge is coming!" With all her mother-love rushing to her heart, she hurried out to meet him. Oh, the welcoming, the reproaches, the caresses, the determination to love him still, despite {MHir, innocent little Marion! Then., when the table luul been set in the next room by Mary's deft Ilngets,and she luul returned to her "west garret." Mrs. Clements oiien- ed her heart. "There's no use talkin'. George, this line, fancy lady o' yours '11 never suit me. Give me a smart girl like Mary Smith, and I'll ask no more. Come in- to supper now. Mary, Mary I" She raised her voice to call the girl, when a low voice near surpiised her. "Oh, you dressed up in honor of my boy! Well, 1 must confess I never knew you luul such a handsome dress, and you look like a picture with your net off, and them short, bobbing curls! George, this is Mary Smith, my George came through the door and glanced carelessly at the comer where the young woman stood. Then, with a cry, sprang witii outstretched hands to meet the little figure that sprang in- to them. The deacon and Mrs. Ce- ments now stood in speechless amaze- ment. Then Marlon, all blushes and The Lute Queen ol HOIIHIHI, Levities mid nrcvltles. What is worse than a gossiping wo- man?—A gossiping man. "If there's no moonlight, will you meet me by gaslight, dearest Juliana?" "No, Augustus. I won't," replied she; "I'm no gas meter." English naiiers say that Talmage talks through his nose. What of it? Whose nose should he talk through, we should like to know? Mrs. Smith, as the summer came on. said she would so milch like a little change. Smith offered her two sliil- ings and sixpence for half-a-crown. "Hrilliant and impulsive people,' said a lecturer on physiognomy, "have black eyes, or if tiiey don't have 'em they're apt to get em; they're too im- pulsive." From the fact that Nero llddled while Rome was burning, we may in- fer that huslnesH hail been pretty dull, and he hail insured the old place for all was worth.

Make way for the Duke of Edin- burgh!" exclaimed an excitable French committee-man at a fancy fair in Lon- don, taking a gentleman by the shoul- ders to accelerate his movement. With your permission, I ara the Duke of Edinburgh!" replied the supposed obstmctive. The cotnmittee-man rap- idly lost himself in tiie crowd. A well-known brass-and-string- bandit professor was interviewed the other morning by a man who wanted a situation in the band. "What can you play ?" asked the professor. "Well. I ain't much for ilddlin'," replied the man, "but if you want wind stuffed into a cornet, or wind belted out of a bass drum, I'm your oyster." He was engaged. No man shall ever kiss me except my future husband," she said, as he was alHiut leaving her at the gate. Supnose I agree to be your future —' "Why, then I'll kiss you," she replied eagerly, and she did. Her mother was informed that he had pro- posed, .^iiti the old lady called the next day to settle matters, and, before he knew it, he was eternally booked. It was a mean advantage; butabitd in the hand is worth two on the front gate. TIIK CIIISHOLM OUTUAOE. Paabion Notes. Colored |>etticoats are again worn. Dark red of various shades is worn. Hastjues have not gone out of fash- ion. The new silk stockings show cordu- roy effects. Children's dresses entirely of red are revived. False fronts are worn to greater ex cess than ever. Caps and turbans will lie in fashion this season. Medium sizes only in any kind of button are fashionable. Painted silk, satin and velvet but- tons are seen among new trimming goods. Japanese and Oriental designs ap- pear on many of the handsome metal buttons. The fashion of wearing large Alsa- tian liowson the top of the hetui is on the increase Red or claret sashes look best with white cashmere or ilannel dresses on children. The new hat, styled "The Phono- graph." may lie felt, but it cannot be heard, like Edison's. The bands and tabliers for dresses, on which printed designs are seen in Paris, are of the richest velvet, satin and silk. Fancy and plain ribbons are both used for loops, ami in some cases form a complete cascade down the front of the dress. Little children, whose hair is not shingled very short, wear it long and curled in the back and banged square across the forehead and temples.

It is exceed ingly gorgeous, surpassing the richest embroideries with colored silk and goltl threiul. Bird Toilets. There was one lady at the Ocean House who wore with evident pride turlian hat composed entirely of the breasts and wings of trl-colored "spar- rows." "Don't you think of the poor little creatures' suffenngs every time you put it on?" asked a more senaitiv friend one day. "No. indeed," was the reply. "Do you think of a chlcken'i sufferings every time you take a bite? At a reception a well-known New York liuly created a "furor" by wear- ing a jieacock dress. The foumiation was creamy white satin; the "bouf- fante" panier took the form of tw winga, which were or satin, bordered with a deep band of many lined pen cock's eyes. The deep train simulated the outspread Util of the bird, and was profuaely decorated with its plumage. In hei hair the lady wore a peacock "aigrette," studded with brilliants, emenlds ami rubies. Another start- ling novelty was the swan-dress, a mir- acle of downy feathers, and a delicate cobweb lace. It WM worn by one of the wsaltliiest Chicago ladies.—/H/a Newport Litter, Fvrnqf$ Proyrens. Vpoii the occasion of our first for- mal audience we were received in one of the state departments, a line salon hung witii rose-colored satin and gay with gilded furniture ami wax can- dies; but when we were asked "to tea," it was in her own private parlor that the queen ei.tertained us. a charniing great room, with tropical plants grow- ing in life windows, and a grand piano at one end. Hooks and ornaments were scattered alxiut. and cabinets of curiosities stood against tin- wall; easy- chairs and little tallies went wander- ing comfortably aliout the lloor; ami a general air of homelikeness pervaded the spacious apartment, whose walls were hung with interesting pictures, tilled with associations to the student of history. One evening, when we arrived, we found the queen reading Kinglake's Invasion of the Crimea, with which she was greatly interested. His dramatic characterizations pleased her particu- larly, and above all the hits at her late uncle, Nicholas of Russia, who, as the writer observes,tried hard to be a gen- tleinan; but underneath all his super- flcial polish still lay the "gypsy in- stinct," which prompted him on occa- sion to do some mean action. Inspired by our interest, the queen drifted into various personal recollec lions of her visits to Napoleon III., and related a little anecdote of the prince imperial when he was alwul six years old. It seems that the emperor had a troop of boys of the prince's age under drill, and the prince himself was one of the regiment; and one day, when the queen was questioning him lightly as to what he jneaut to do in the world, he replied bravely, in true Napoleonic fashion. Madame, i shall lie a soldier." "Hut you are so little," said her majesty, "they cannot make you an oflicer; you will have to lie a private always." "Pardon, mndame." said the little fellow, making a mili- tary salute, -je suis deja caporal!" The empress of the French her maj- esty thought a woman of excellent parts, but overwhelmed with all sorts of frivolities outside of herself. "There is so much to do," said the queen, naively, "I wonder how she ever gets through it ail. It was one tumult from morning till night. Of course she had no time to improve her mind. I could not have endured it." At Osborne, where she visited Queen Victoria, she was oppressed by the dullness and for- mality. She thought the queen of Eng- land a person of extraordinary inform ation, but the slavery of etiquette Inch surrounded her was unendura- ble. From this very slavery it was the desire of the queen of Courcanale to deliver herself, and her own life was one of vigorous action and intelligent effort. She rose daily at seven walked, wrote, and read at tlxed hours, corresponding with half the saemits of Europe on matters of literary and sci entitle interest. She drew around her all the inteiiectmil iieople of her court accosting them without formality or pretension, interrogating them, enjoy ing their different opinions, which she encouraged them frankly to express. She was a warm friend of the English her best friends were Englishwomen. She s)ioke the language with absolute perfection, and without accent, and was mistress of six other tongues Our American war was a serious puz- zle to her. She was as kind as pussi ble in her symimthy, but still admitted o|ienly that the breaking up of our re- public would lie no cause of grief to the royal families of Enro|>e. "You are so strong," she said, ruefully; and she shared the 'ommon European deiu sion tluit the i ause of the South wits the cause of aristocracy.—October At taut in. The |ieople are entitled to ail the light they lum get un the recent dis- grace in Kemper county. Miss., where the munlurer Gully was acquitted. Hence we print this summary from the Chicago Tribune: There was no phase of this trial that was not a mockery oLjustice and a disgrace to the court,The town, the county and the state where it was held. Thp murderer himself, who was on trial for one of the most awful and brutal crimes ever perpetrated even in that blondy region, was not under re- straint. Ho came and went at his pleasure, the aecoiumodaftng sheriff taking his word that he would appear whenever wanted. Knowing that he would lie acquitted, and that there was not power enough in Kemper county to punish him, lie appeared promptly enough each morning, and s|ient his time in the court room or in the town streets and saloons, as best suited his pleasure; if there had been any doubt of his acquittal, there was no way to have prevented his escape. He had plenty of company, for the town was thronged with his associates ami fol- lowers, many of them the very same mflians who were with him in the at- tack upon the jail where theChisholms were killed, ami .12 of them under in- dictments for murder found two years ago, uptin which no warrants had ever lieen issued by the cowardly ofiicials of the court. These ruffians held high carnival in De Kalb. They were in complete posaesaion of the town. No one dared to sympathize with the poor ouian who bravely ventured into this nest of crime to demand that justice lie awarded her for the murder of her husband, daughter and son. Not a man among the many who witnessed the murder in broad daylight dared to stand up and corrolmrate her testimony by telling the plain truth. All of them had treacheious memories and forgot everything that bore directly IIIKIII the rime. The jury sat in its box under duress as complete as if a pistol had been held at the head of each one of them. The lawyers for the defense went through their cross-examinations and speeches, and the court made out its instructions with the customary formalities and following the ordinary precedents of law. well knowing that justice could not, and would not lie :ul- ministered. Tims the farce went on from day to day. the authorities know- ing that, even if they had the will, they had not the power to punish this onvicted murderer; and yielding to the pressure of the mob. jurors and witnesses did not hesitate at the close of the day's proceedings, to fraternize with them. Pending the verdict of the jury, the murderer jurrounded by his friends, sat on the fence outside without even lieing attended by a bail- iff, not caring to go into the court-room to hear the decision which his friends had arranged for him. When Hie ver- dict was announced. Gen. Woodford, who escorted Mrs. Chisholm to DeKalb and acted as her counsel, together with their friends, hurried to the railroad station lest any harm should befall her, while Gully and his fellow rulHans proceeded to get drunk and celebrate his acquittal! The DesiKns of the Sontli. August WllhelniJ. Wilhelmj was born September 2 1*4.1, at Uaingen, an old town in the duchy of Nassau, about twenty miles from Frankfort-on-the-Main. His father, a doctor at law, is one of the most important wine-growers of the Rhine country. His mother was for merly a distinguished singer and plan ist, and a pupil of Chopin. His tlrst master was Conrad Fischer, of Wies- baden, under whom he made extraor- dinary progress. He could play al most before he could talk. lie liegan to use the violin at the age of four. At seven he exhibited his accomplish- ments for the entertainment of Henri- etta Sontag. At the age of eight he played in quartets of Haydn, showing already a natural talent for chamber music. In liis ninth year he appeared for the first time in public, and is said to have made a great popular sensa tion. Notwithstaiuiing the evident bent of his genius, his father insisted upon training him for the law. Au gust remonstrated for a long time in vain. At length Dr. Wilhelmj agreed that the boy should devote himself to the violin provided some high authori- ty found in him the promise not mere- ly of a clever mmician, but of a great artist. Ami so in the Spring of ism, yonng August set out for Weimar to submit himself to the judgment of Franz Liszt. We can imagine the picture of the handsome, bright, earnest lad of siat teen, standing lieside the piano of w hich the white-haired master, hero x- a thousand triumphs, tqieiied S|iohr's Eighth Concerto and began the test. Liszt playing the accompaniment. Then Wilhelmj played some shorter pieces at sight. When he paused, Liszt rose from the piano and exclaimed: 'What! they thought of making you a awyer? You were bum fot music." A few days later Liszt went w ith the Imy to i<eipzig. and placed him under the care of Ferdinand David. Thiee years at the Leipzig Conservatory laid the solid foundation of his greatness. Hearts, more or less, we suppose, most of us have, but we keep them so close-cased and padlocked—we wear an outside so hard and dry—that little or none of the love that may lie within esca|ies to gladden those around us. \ml so life passes without any of the sweetening to society that conies when affection is not only felt but expressed. Ranavalona. Queen of Madagascar, hits issued a proclamation to her sulv jects. commanding them to send their cltildren to school, saying that it makes her glad to see her subjects wise. She adds: "And so be all of you diligent, for although ypu do nut now know the sweetness of knowledge and wisdom, you will discover it when they become yours." The London Spectator thinks that women care more for nature and men more for art Mr. Quilp says, perhaps that is the reason why men and women care so much for each other. In his address before the Massachu- setts State Uenublisan Convention at Worcester last week Senator "Hoar saitl; Directness of speech is the truest friendship. The time requires fair warnings and plain truths. If our brethren at the South will show any way to promote their moral or material prosperity, no one of their own representatives will pursue it with more eagerness of desire than ours. We will help build their schooi- houses, we will help revive their com merce, wo will help improve their rivers and harbors and cover their land with railroads. Hut for their sakes as for our own. we w ill not |>er- mit them to wipe out the results of the war, or to trample under their heels either our own constitutional rights or those of our Republican fel- low-citizens. lApplausei It is no accident that every cam- paign in the South liegins with a homi- cide, in which some conspicuous po- litical opponent of the Democratic party is the victim, and some Demo- crat the victor. The Southern strug- gle for political power begins always like the ancient games, with a sacrifice, a sacrilice in which is shed, not the blood of bulls and goats, but of Ameri- can citizens. God will Utke care of the negro, as he did of the Jew. as he did of the Puritan, as he did of the Protestant in the low countries, as In doth of all that are desolate and o|>- pressed. God will take care of the negro, as he did of the Jew's even if lie must send his pillar of cloud and oi tire to lead him to a new exodus. 1 Ap- plause.] Hut what will become ot the white man? What will become of those fair States? What will become of the America:: youth, bred, under the example of his fathers, to tlunk that violence, that corrupt acts, that tissue ballots, that murder arec inimoii meth- ods by which power is gained and maintained in free States? For the tirst time lor thirty years the Southern Deniocra«y control Isitli houses of Congress The Democrafs have a small majoritv in each branch, and the South an overwhelming ma- jority in each caucus. What the Dem- ocratic CAUCUS resolves, the Democrat- ic Congress enacts Their purjioaes he who runs may read. They mean: First, to hold jiower iu their own Suites, suppressing by violence, so far its it is needed, the freedom of discus- sion and election; second, to deprive the nation of any power to secure the purity of the ballot and the honest election of its own officers; third, to destroy the national credit by Inlla- tlon, ami the national atrength by par- alyzing the army; fourth, by these methods, and with the aid of a few Northern allies, to make the national government, thus weakened and de- fenceless. an easy prey. There are sixteen Southern States which will vote its a unit in isso. Ten of these, with fair discussion and election, would be likely to be Republican, and six of the ten would bo as certain its Massachusetts or Vermont. All the great issues of twenty years him who has He|ieriited from us in the past come back to us now. If the man of your choice be nominated, your ef- forts are pledged to his success. If a candidate be selected less calculated in your judgment to excite popular en- thusiitsni.it is your duty to do twice as much. As was well said the other day by one of the wisest and truest of our friends, "The standard must be saved!" SeniUor itliiine In Ohio. The Hon. James G. Hlaine. of Maine, delivered his lirst speecU in the Ohio camp tign at Hellitire litnt Friday even- ing. He began his speech by alluding to the claims of the Democratic and Greenback panics in every state, a year ago, that resumption was prac- tically an ini|Nisslbility. Vet it was accomplished in the twinkling of an eye, and the greenback is now worth a dollar in any country in the world. That could never have been without resumption. The Democrats tell you that you cannot get coin. You can net it its easily as you can get pa|>er, but you don't want it because you can get it so easily. As to the Democratic claim alsuit the demonetization of the silvertlnllar. he showed that there are more of them now in circulation than ever before; and that four and a half times as many were coined during the last i" months its were coined during the whole previous history of the coun- try. In defense of the national banks he contrasted them with the old state banks, which, when they failed, made a clean thing. This Amtrast was drawn so forcibly, and so plainly and humorously illustrated, that the audi- ence applauded and laughed heartily. The Republican parly was the lirst to take responsibility of wiping out the system of slate banks. It declared that special charters and bounding the cir- culation of banks by state lines must cease, that there must be no monopoly, and that equal privileges must be ex- tended free and alike to all who have the money to put in. Another thing: They declared that losses must cease, that not a bill shall lie issued until amply secured to the third party, the public. The Republican party was the first that had strength and courage to grapple with the state bank system. If the Democrats will come forward antl show a better system. I pledge my- self as a senator to vole for it and I ask Mr. Thurman and every one else condemning it to close tiieir mouths until they show abetter. As to sub- stituting greenbacks, he asked who could pm|iosea method of issuing and regulating the supply. The demands of business, I am told—but who is tn lie the judge? Congrest? I make bold to declare that there is not a body un- der the canopy of heaven less lit or able to decide that question. If you want someliody to decide it. for God's sake give the jMiwer to the commissioners of Helmont county. 1 would rather trust them a thousand times than con- gress. Turning to the question of taxation he said that the nation hasn't taxed you to death. What lax is il that hurts you? A voice —"whisky." Laughter.] There never was a time when a lady or a man could dress so genteelly and comfortably at as low a price as to-day. A peculiarity of the lax is that you don't have to pay il unless you want to. This brought him to the industries of the country, which had prospered under the ttriff. He was in favor of a tariff for protection and the harder you make it the better. Coming to the extra session of Con- gressjuid the efforts made tostarveout every department of the govemmenl in order to co-erce the President into signing obnoxious and improper bills, he said the significance of the course of Congress is not appreciated by the American people, il was as signill- cant as an attack by arms. He thanked God that the President sent back their bills to them. This roaring, rampant Democratic lion, which at- tempted to frighten by its roar, went out very much like a beaten spaniel with its tail between its legs. With reference to intimidation at the polls he said that three times he introduced an amendment to the bill to render it unlawful for any person to come armed to the |KI11S. and it was as often voted down. Senator Thurman each time voted with the majority. Then Senator Windom offered an amendment to render it unlawful for any person to go to the jwlls armed for the purpose of intimidating any others, and that tin) was voted down. [A voice. "Why? Why?" God only knows why. unless liecause • i their determiiiai-ioii tiial the Lis i ectorial votes they are counting shall not lie in- terfered with. The questlun now before you is, "Shall I vole in the interest of the KukJux antl raise them to the full con- troll of the country?" That is the question of the hour. Every other question is settled, and settled perma- nently. They were settled by the tri- umpli of the Republican party. A voice—"Tell us about the btiga- diers." The brigadiers are n'piesenlalives of the Democratic party. The only que*- tion now is whether they are to !«• re- inforced by Democratic assistance from the north. He told of a southern Democrat who visited the house gal- lery one afternoon, and putting on ills glasses looked down and exclaimed. "My God! This is the old Confederate army in citizens clothing." Are you going to reinforce Iheni?

To the verd'et which she pronounces Massachusetts will not disagree. Let Citiiby'H Criticism. • Von are fond of novel-reading?" said Aurelien Scholl the other day, as he saw the coachman he hail engaged stow away a formidable volume of io- mance beneath the seat. "Yessir; I have read a great many novels, and I am disgusted to observe the uniform ignorance of their authors its to the comiuonesl affairs of every- day life. For instances, here is one story in which I read: 'The Prince ap- lieared a itated on hearing these words, antl. bailing a carriage. Hung himself into it. cast his purse to the driver. and cried. "Drive me to the Faubourg St Monroe'" ' Then a few lines further on 1 see this: ' Valentine resolved once for all to solve the inyn- tery. and. flinging her pocketbook to tin said"Follow yon car- riage."

"Of all things this is the worst! If I ever in my life expected to hear such news! Why. our Ueorge has gone and got married! D'ye hear?"

Good Mrs. Clements pushed her steel-bowed spectacles off her bright eves, and droppetl her letters in her lap, as she turned round to her hus-band, the stout, clever old farmer, who wits contentedly stroking an old white c a t

"Deacon, d'ye hear?" This time when she asked Hie nues-

tion there was a touch of sadness in her voice.

"Yes ; what if he is marr ied? I'm sure its natural enough. It kind o runs in the family, '|»ears to me."

Hut Mrs. Clements would take notice of the little plaosantry,

Well if you like it, 1 can tell you I don't. l i e needn't think he's comin) here with his fine city bred lady, al nil's, and graces, and liounces and rtif Ilea. There's plenty of good girls here-about tha t wanted him. Hight in the middle of work, too! To talk of bring ing a lady here in hog-killin' t ime! do declare, I think (Jeorge is a fool!"

A graceful, dainty little lady, in a garnet jMipiin and a rutlled apron, with a small, proudly-poised head, covered witii short, dusky curis, having a pair of dark-blue eyes, so wistful and ten di r, a tiny rosebud of a nioiith, ami dimjile in each pink cheek.

Tha t was Mrs. Marion Clements Was it any wonder that Ceorge had fallen in love with her?

She sa t in the bright l i t t le parlor, close lieside the lace-curtained window watching for her loved husband's re-t u r n ; and then when she heard tin click of the latch key in the ball, lie for the welcome kiss. Looking up, she asked—

"Havn ' t you the letter thi!" time George? I've felt sure of it ail day Indeed, I've quite decided what dtesses to take with me."

"Oh, (ieorge! Isn ' t it too bad; And do believe they won't wr i te liecause they are sorry you married me."

l i e put his a rm around her neck. "And sujiposing such to 1H> the case,

do you think it would make any dif-ference with me?"

"Oh,no. no! Only it would grieve me so if I knew I had alienated your own parents from you."

"And a one-sided alienation it would be too! They have never seen you And when they know you they can' help loving you!"

"Oh, George." The exclamation was caused by the

kiss accompanying his own liattery. "That ' s true as preaching. Hy-the-

"What need we care for money ? 1 rather have you."

A mischievous.smileplayed over the young man's l ips; he was more matter-of-fact than this romantic, tender little wife of his.

" I think the addition to our balam at the banker's would be very consol ing for the absence. Hut never mind little jiet. I-et's go down to dinner, hope we'll gel a letter f rom home soon.'

And soon it was ; for Marion snatch M1 from his pocket the very next night. Hut her husband's face looked grav and stern, and his eyes looked angi when she looked gleefully over the en velope.

"My dear, you imiBt remember 1 care very little what the letter contains. He-member, I did not write i t ; that you are dearer to me than ever before. K iss me, lirst, while I watch you."

A little pang of misdoubt troubled Iter when she glanced over the note; tears stole from under her lashes, and George saw her tender mouth (julver and tremble; then, when she had lin-ished it, she laid her head upon his shoulder and cried.

" I t was cruel to let you see it, my wounded birdie. Let me burn i t And don' t forget darling, what our Hible says—that a man shall leave father and mother and cleave to his wife. Y'ou are my precious wife, Marion, and to you 1 turn for all the happiness my life will ever hold."

H e dried her tears, and then they talked it over.

" J u s t because I am city bred she thinks I am la/y, and haughty, and ditinty, and—'

"Never mind, Marion. She will lind out some day. My father—'

"Yes,bless the dear old man! H e has added; 'My love to my daughier Marion.' Oh, I know I should love him, and your mother, too, if she would let me.'

' W e will invite them down when I come here. Hy the way, Marion, I will stop at the farm on my way home and invite them down and bring them home with me."

"George, dear. I 've been thinking about that t r ip West. I think you luul lietter go lyid leave me at home. I t won't be so very long."

Marion was eating her egg while she spoke across the little breakfast table.

"Spoken like my little t rue Marion, and when I come back I'll bring you a

I'm sure I don't know what to say. The land knows I need help batl enough; but it 'itears to me that a slender midget as you couldn't earn your salt. What did you say your name was?"

Mar)' Smith. And. indeed, if you ill try me for a week, I'm sure you ill keep me till the season's over." Mrs, Clements looked out of the indow at the great clouds tha t were

piling gloomily up ; and then the wind gave a great wailing shriek around the (timers of the house,

"Yon can cook, ken you ? or shake up feather beds—good big ones, forty pounders?"

A gleeful little laugh came from Mary's lips.

Indeed I can. 1 may not cook to suit you. but I can learn."

Mrs. Clements walked out to the huge u|>en fire-place in the kitchen,

here the dejicon was shelling com. What d'ye say, deacon ? keep her or

no t? 1 kind o ' l ike her looks, and the dear knows it 'ud lie a good lift while we're killin'. if she couldn't do no more'n set the table or make mush for the bread."

Take her. of course. Hannah. You an- harddriv*. I know. Let her stop a week or so, anyhow."

So Mrs. Clements came slowly back and sat down again.

You can't get away to-night any-how ; there's a snowstorm been brewfn' these three days, and it's on us now, sure enough. See them 'ere llakes line mid thick. You may as well take your things upstairs to the west garret, and then come down and help me get sii|i-l>er."

Then followed directions to the west garret and when she was gone Mrs. Clemeiiis turned to the deacon and said:

I never saw a girl before I'd t rus t up stairs alone. Hut such as her don't steal. 1 can tell you that, if nothing Ise."

Directly she came down in a purple irint drees and white apron ; her hair irushed off from her face into a net, a

narrow linen collar, fastened with a sailor's loop of narrow ribbon. I t seemeu as if she luul life, too, so handi-ly she llitted in and out of the pantry tnd then down the cellar. Then, a f t e r

the meal, she gathered the dishes in a neat (|uiet way that was perfect bliss to old Mre. Clement's cart.

She's determined to earn her bread anyhow, and I like iter turn, too.

And the deacon had "taken a shine 2

to Mary Smith. One by one the days wore on; the hog-killing was over and done; long strings of sausages hung in fantastic rings, arranged by Mary's deft lingers; sweet hams and shoulders were piled away in t rue housewifely manner, and now Man ' and Mrs. Cle-ments were sitting in the sunny dining-room, darning, patching and niend-i l f f '

I don't know what 1 m going to do without you, Mary. I dread to see you pick up your clothes."

A blush of pleasure overspread Mary's face.

I am so glad you have lieen suited with my work. Indeed I have tried."

It ain't the work altogether, thougl goodness knows, you're the smartest gal I've seen this many a day. As I say, it ain't the work, it's you Mary— me and the deacon—"

Mary's voice trembled a t the kind-ness of the old lady's voice, but she sewed rapidly on,

"It 's so uncommon lonesome since the lioy lef t the farm," she went on "but it's worse since he got married. I t seems like deserting us altogether.'

"Have you a son ? You never men-tioned him ?"

"No, George has gone his way, and we must go ours. Yes. he married one of those crack-headed Ixmrding school people, who can't tell the difference between a rolling-pin and a milk pan."

Hut despite her scorn,>Mrs. Clements dashed tiff the tears with her brow list.

"Is his wife pret ty? I suppose you love her dearly?"

"1 don't know anything about her, and never want to know. He's le f t us for her. and us old folks will leave him for her, too. Mary, just turn them cakes a round; seems as if they're burning."

When Mary had turned the cakes. Mrs. Clements was leaning on the ami of her chair.

"Mary, suppositi' you stop with us another month yet. anyhow, i he de on will make it all right."

" i t isn't the money i care for, Mm. Clements. 1 only wish I might stay always. You don't know how much I love you."

"Love us! do you? llless your heart. If |Kior George luul only picked you out, what a comfort it would lie to us all! Hut it can't be helped now,"

She sighed wearily, then elanced out of the w indow, looked a moment, and then threw down her work.

"Itless my soul, if there ain't my son George coming up the lane! Deacon! deacon! (ieorge is coming!"

With all her mother-love rushing to her heart, she hurried out to meet him. Oh, the welcoming, the reproaches, the caresses, the determination to love him still, despite {MHir, innocent little Marion! Then., when the table luul been set in the next room by Mary's deft Ilngets,and she luul returned to her "west garret." Mrs. Clements oiien-ed her heart.

"There's no use talkin' . George, this line, fancy lady o' yours '11 never suit me. Give me a smart girl like Mary Smith, and I'll ask no more. Come in-to supper now. Mary, Mary I"

She raised her voice to call the girl, when a low voice near surpiised her.

"Oh, you dressed up in honor of my boy! Well, 1 must confess I never knew you luul such a handsome dress, and you look like a picture with your net off, and them short, bobbing curls! George, this is Mary Smith, my

George came through the door and glanced carelessly a t the comer where the young woman stood. Then, with a cry, sprang witii outstretched hands to meet the little figure that sprang in-to them. The deacon and Mrs. Ce-ments now stood in speechless amaze-ment. Then Marlon, all blushes and

A well-known brass-and-string-bandit professor was interviewed the other morning by a man who wanted a situation in the band. "What can you play ?" asked the professor. "Well.

Bird T o i l e t s .

There was one lady at the Ocean House who wore with evident pride turlian hat composed entirely of the breasts and wings of trl-colored "spar-rows." "Don't you think of the poor little creatures' suf fenngs every time you put it on?" asked a more senaitiv friend one day. "No. indeed," was the reply. "Do you think of a chlcken'i sufferings every t ime you take a bite? At a reception a well-known New York liuly created a "furor" by wear-ing a jieacock dress. The foumiation was creamy white sa t in ; the "bouf-fante" panier took the form of tw winga, which were or satin, bordered with a deep band of many lined pen cock's eyes. The deep train simulated the outspread Util of the bird, and was profuaely decorated with its plumage. In hei hair the lady wore a peacock "aigrette," studded with brilliants, e m e n l d s ami rubies. Another start-ling novelty was the swan-dress, a mir-acle of downy feathers, and a delicate cobweb lace. I t WM worn by one of the wsaltliiest Chicago ladies.—/H/a Newport Litter, Fvrnqf$ Proyrens.

Vpoii the occasion of our first for-mal audience we were received in one of the state departments, a line salon hung witii rose-colored satin and gay with gilded furni ture ami wax can-dies; but when we were asked "to tea," it was in her own private parlor that the queen ei.tertained us. a charniing great room, with tropical plants grow-ing in life windows, and a grand piano a t one end. Hooks and ornaments were scattered alxiut. and cabinets of curiosities stood against tin- wal l ; easy-chairs and little tallies went wander-ing comfortably aliout the lloor; ami a general air of homelikeness pervaded the spacious apartment, whose walls were hung with interesting pictures, tilled with associations to the student of history.

One evening, when we arrived, we found the queen reading Kinglake's Invasion of the Crimea, with which she was greatly interested. His dramatic characterizations pleased her particu-larly, and above all the hits at her late uncle, Nicholas of Russia, who, as the writer observes,tried hard to be a gen-tleinan; but underneath all his super-flcial polish still lay the "gypsy in-stinct," which prompted him on occa-sion to do some mean action.

Inspired by our interest, the queen drif ted into various personal recollec lions of her visits to Napoleon III., and related a little anecdote of the prince imperial when he was alwul six years old. It seems that the emperor had a troop of boys of the prince's age under drill, and the prince himself was one of the regiment; and one day, when the queen was questioning him lightly as to what he j n e a u t to do in the world, he replied bravely, in true Napoleonic fashion. Madame, i shall lie a soldier." "Hut you are so little," said her majesty, "they cannot make you an oflicer; you will have to lie a private always." "Pardon, mndame." said the little fellow, making a mili-tary salute, - je suis deja caporal!"

The empress of the French her maj-esty thought a woman of excellent parts, but overwhelmed with all sorts of frivolities outside of herself. "There is so much to do," said the queen, naively, "I wonder how she ever gets through it ail. It was one tumul t from morning till night. Of course she had no time to improve her mind. I could no t have endured it." A t Osborne, where she visited Queen Victoria, she was oppressed by the dullness and for-mality. She thought the queen of Eng-land a person of extraordinary inform ation, but the slavery of etiquette

Inch surrounded her was unendura-ble. From this very slavery i t was the desire of the queen of Courcanale to deliver herself, and her own life was one of vigorous action and intelligent effort. She rose daily at seven walked, wrote, and read at tlxed hours, corresponding with half the saemits of Europe on matters of literary and sci entitle interest. She drew around her all the inteiiectmil iieople of her court accosting them without formality or pretension, interrogating them, enjoy ing their different opinions, which she encouraged them frankly to express. She was a warm friend of the English her best friends were Englishwomen. She s)ioke the language with absolute perfection, and without accent, and was mistress of six other tongues Our American war was a serious puz-zle to her. She was as kind as pussi ble in her symimthy, but still admitted o|ienly that the breaking up of our re-public would lie no cause of grief to the royal families of Enro|>e. "You are so strong," she said, rueful ly ; and she shared the 'ommon European deiu sion tluit the i ause of the South wits the cause of aristocracy.—October At taut in.

The |ieople are entitled to ail the light they lum get un the recent dis-grace in Kemper county. Miss., where the munlure r Gully was acquitted. Hence we print this summary from the Chicago Tribune:

There was no phase of this trial that was not a mockery oLjus t i ce and a disgrace to the cour t ,The town, the county and the state where it was held. Thp murderer himself, who was on trial for one of the most awful and brutal crimes ever perpetrated even in that blondy region, was not under re-straint. Ho came and went a t his pleasure, the aecoiumodaftng sheriff taking his word that he would appear whenever wanted. Knowing that he would lie acquitted, and that there was not power enough in Kemper county to punish him, lie appeared promptly enough each morning, and s|ient his time in the court room or in the town streets and saloons, as best suited his pleasure; if there had been any doubt of his acquittal, there was no way to have prevented his escape. He had plenty of company, for the town was thronged with his associates ami fol-lowers, many of them the very same mflians who were with him in the at-tack upon the jail where theChisholms were killed, ami .12 of them under in-dictments for murder found two years ago, uptin which no warrants had ever lieen issued by the cowardly ofiicials of the court. These ruffians held high carnival in De Kalb. They were in complete posaesaion of the town. No one dared to sympathize with the poor

ouian who bravely ventured into this nest of crime to demand that justice lie awarded her for the murder of her husband, daughter and son. Not a man among the many who witnessed the murder in broad daylight dared to stand up and corrolmrate her testimony by telling the plain t ruth . All of them had treacheious memories and forgot everything that bore directly IIIKIII the

rime. The jury sat in its box under duress as complete as if a pistol had

been held at the head of each one of them. The lawyers for the defense went through their cross-examinations and speeches, and the court made out its instructions with the customary formalities and following the ordinary precedents of law. well knowing that justice could not, and would not lie :ul-ministered. Tims the farce went on from day to day. the authorities know-ing that, even if they had the will, they had not the power to punish this

onvicted murderer; and yielding to the pressure of the mob. jurors and witnesses did not hesitate at the close of the day's proceedings, to fraternize with them. Pending the verdict of the jury, the murderer jurrounded by his friends, sat on the fence outside without even lieing attended by a bail-iff, not caring to go into the court-room to hear the decision which his friends had arranged for him. When Hie ver-dict was announced. Gen. Woodford, who escorted Mrs. Chisholm to DeKalb and acted as her counsel, together with their friends, hurried to the railroad station lest any harm should befall her, while Gully and his fellow rulHans proceeded to get drunk and celebrate his acquit tal!

Wilhelmj was born September 2 1*4.1, a t Uaingen, an old town in the duchy of Nassau, about twenty miles from Frankfort-on-the-Main. His father, a doctor at law, is one of the most important wine-growers of the Rhine country. His mother was for merly a distinguished singer and plan ist, and a pupil of Chopin. His tlrst master was Conrad Fischer, of Wies-baden, under whom he made extraor-dinary progress. He could play al most before he could talk. l i e liegan to use the violin at the age of four. At seven he exhibited his accomplish-ments for the entertainment of Henri-etta Sontag. At the age of eight he played in quartets of Haydn, showing already a natural talent for chamber music. In liis ninth year he appeared for the first t ime in public, and is said to have made a great popular sensa tion. Notwithstaiuiing the evident bent of his genius, his father insisted upon training him for the law. Au gust remonstrated for a long time in vain. At length Dr. Wilhelmj agreed that the boy should devote himself to the violin provided some high authori-ty found in him the promise not mere-ly of a clever mmician, but of a great artist . Ami so in the Spring of i sm, yonng August set out for Weimar to submit himself to the judgment of Franz Liszt.

You were b u m fot music." A few days later Liszt went w ith the Imy to i<eipzig. and placed him under the care of Ferdinand David. Thiee years at the Leipzig Conservatory laid the solid foundation of his greatness.

Hearts, more or less, we suppose, most of us have, but we keep them so close-cased and padlocked—we wear an outside so hard and dry—that little or none of the love that may lie within esca|ies to gladden those around us. \ m l so life passes without any of the sweetening to society that conies when affection is not only felt but expressed.

Directness of speech is the truest friendship. The time requires fair warnings and plain truths. If our brethren a t the South will show any way to promote their moral or material prosperity, no one of their own representatives will pursue it with more eagerness of desire than ours. We will help build their schooi-houses, we will help revive their com merce, wo will help improve their r ivers and harbors and cover their land with railroads.

I t is no accident that every cam-paign in the South liegins with a homi-cide, in which some conspicuous po-litical opponent of the Democratic party is the victim, and some Demo-crat the victor.

God will Utke care of the negro, as he did of the Jew. as he did of the Puritan, as he did of the Protestant in the low countries, as In doth of all that are desolate and o|>-pressed.

As to the Democratic claim alsuit the demonetization of the silvertlnllar. he showed that there are more of them now in circulation than ever before; and that four and a half times as many were coined during the last i" months its were coined during the whole previous history of the coun-try.

In defense of the national banks he contrasted them with the old state banks, which, when they failed, made a clean thing. This Amtrast was drawn so forcibly, and so plainly and humorously illustrated, that the audi-ence applauded and laughed heartily. The Republican parly was the lirst to take responsibility of wiping out the system of slate banks. It declared that special charters and bounding the cir-culation of banks by state lines must cease, that there must be no monopoly, and that equal privileges must be ex-tended free and alike to all who have the money to put in. Another th ing : They declared that losses must cease, t ha t not a bill shall lie issued until amply secured to the third party, the public. The Republican party was the first that had strength and courage to grapple with the state bank system. If the Democrats will come forward antl show a better system. I pledge my-self as a senator to vole for i t and I ask Mr. Thurman and every one else condemning it to close tiieir mouths until they show abe t t e r . As to sub-stituting greenbacks, he asked who could pm|iosea method of issuing and regulating the supply. The demands of business, I am told—but who is tn lie the judge? Congrest? I make bold to declare that there is not a body un-der the canopy of heaven less lit or able to decide that question. If you wan t someliody to decide it. for God's sake give the jMiwer to the commissioners of Helmont county. 1 would rather trust them a thousand times than con-gress.

Turning to the question of taxation he said that the nation hasn't taxed you to death. What lax is il that hurts you? A voice —"whisky." Laughter.] There never was a time when a lady or a man could dress so genteelly and comfortably at as low a price as to-day. A peculiarity of the lax is that you don't have to pay il unless you want to. This brought him to the industries of the country, which had prospered under the t t r i f f . He was in favor of a tariff for protection and the harder you make it the better.

Coming to the extra session of Con-gressjuid the efforts made t o s t a r v e o u t every department of the govemmenl in order to co-erce the President into signing obnoxious and improper bills, he said the significance of the course of Congress is not appreciated by the American people, il was as signill-cant as an attack by arms. He thanked God that the President sent back their bills to them. This roaring, rampant Democratic lion, which at-tempted to frighten by its roar, went out very much like a beaten spaniel with its tail between its legs.

With reference to intimidation at the polls he said that three times he introduced an amendment to the bill to render it un lawfu l for any person to come armed to the |KI11S. and it was as often voted down. Senator Thurman each time voted with the majority. Then Senator Windom offered an amendment t o render it unlawful for any person to go to the jwlls armed for the purpose of intimidating any others, and that tin) was voted down. [A voice. "Why? Why?" God only knows why. unless liecause • i their determiiiai-ioii t i ial the Lis i ectorial votes they are counting shall not lie in-terfered with.

The questlun now before you is, "Shall I vole in the interest of the KukJux antl raise them to the ful l con-troll of the country?" That is the question of the hour. Every other question is settled, and settled perma-nently. They were settled by t he tri-umpli of the Republican party.

A voice—"Tell us about the btiga-diers."

The brigadiers are n'piesenlalives of the Democratic party. The only que*-tion now is whether they are t o !«• re-inforced by Democratic assistance from the north. He told of a southern Democrat who visited the house gal-lery one afternoon, and putt ing on ills glasses looked down and exclaimed. "My God! This is the old Confederate army in citizens clothing." Are you going to reinforce Iheni? You can hand this country over to the free traders and the relielsof the soutli.aiiu you can most easily do it by electing the DemocraUc ticket in Ohio.

To think that Wendell Phillips must sneeze now every time Ben Butler takes snuff is enough to make u man laugh at his own funeral.

The Post and Tribune implores Mr. Pendleton not to be an ass. Such a waste of breath is extravagant, even in these flush times.

Democratic papers are addressing whole columns of interesting correspond-ence to Gen* Grant just now and, poor man, he doesn't know it.

"A house divided against itself can-not fall," is the way the Robinson Dem-ocrats of New York put it. They were always a little off on scripture.

Justin L. Gunn of Bridgewater was murdered last Thursday night and his son is missing. And now the question is where is that son of a Gunn?

Susan B. Anthony says "woman wants bread, not the ballot." She shall have it, bless her: come right here and get an order on the best bakery in town.

Charles Reade says he is done with writing stories for entertainment only. But he needn't feel very bad about it. Better wait until he is found guilty.

A brisk demand for American wind-mills having sprung up in the British colonies we an- daily expecting to hear that Moses W. Field luis left his native shore.

Secretary Evarts says tliat the South lost all in the late war except its honor. Ah, yes, and a pauper died in the poor house without making a will,too. What a cohincidence, by jingo.

When Dennis Kearney sent up his card to Gen. Grant the General refused to accept it. It 's all a lie about Grant's taking everything offered him—you howlers.

Clara Morris's husband will read to the public this winter, says the Detroit News. Who wouldn't rather hear Clara whisper for two minutes than to hear him read all winter?

Gentlemen, in 1880, when these things arc all classified and marked and put away in their proper places you will find all such men as Sam Gary and Mos-es Field on the five cent counter.

Moody and Sankey are going to see what can be done in Cleveland. That's right, beat Barnum if it's in the pins. He made a whistle out of a pig's tail, hut don't be discouraged.

Anthony Blair of Tennessee was hung ed last Friday for the murder of his step daughter. Mad Anthony: such a step daughter he a warning to those who have so far escaped hanging.

It is reported that Mrs. A. T. Stewart is going to marry Gov. Rice of Massn-chusetts. It hadn't better be noised around much or some body snatclier will abduct the crop and bold it for a liberal reward.

When Senator Lamar expresses his opinion on the Yazoo murder we shall be reminded of the Dutchman's opinion on a certain important question. The Dutchman's opinion was "I tink so, but guess not."

George Ticknor Field is to write the biography of ex-President Buchanan, receiving for his services 18,000 and one-half of the copyright. Cheap enough. The wear and tear on u man's moral structure is something.

The Albany Journal quotes a little un. savory history to Samuel J . It says: ••As Sam. Tilden engineered the holt tlwt defeated Gen. Cass in the (-am|«ign of 184^. he ought to look leniently on John Kelly's o|)erations just now.

The Alliany Journal is reminded that Mr. Tilden can look only just half as leniently on such thfhgs us he could once. One eye |inralyznl, you know.

How lovely. How transcendently beautiful the einMematic autumnal fo-liage, kissed by the gentle October zeph-yrs. See how they blush and ilgh and coax. Beautiful indeed! Who can look upon Nature so gorgeously arrayed with-out breathing into her ear words of warmest admiration and—oh, just see her now. No two ways about it—she looks just bully.

Harper's Weekly—the George William Curtis end of it—advises its Republican followers to scratch their ticket. O. William is very sad and dejected and doesn't like Cornell for a steady diet. Blamed sight more nourishing than milk ond water, Mr. Curtis, blamed sight more nourishing than milk and water.

A brilliant idea has just struck a farmer in this section. He is a young the fanner—that is he has always lived in city until about six months ago when he struck out to make his mark and for-tune as a horny handed tiller of the soil. His inventive genius has not been slum-bering all of these six months for now he tells us confidentially that next spring he is going to show his neighbors how to get big crops. He is going to sow mustard plaster all over his land and that's an idea that has never struck the unscientific farmer, he bets.

The Old Bay Stale.

Straight or crooked. Ben Butler has placed his eye upon^the gubernatorial cliairof Massachusetts this time with the firm determination to hold it there until he drops his burly presence right plumb into it. He means to get there and has succeeded in drawing to his sup-port all the organized opposition to the Republican party of that State. The contest is a hot one and the Republicans have a formidable foe to fight. But they will win if they do their whole du-ty and Ben Butler will be assigned a back seat which the great public would lie very glad to see him take and occu-py for the bolance of his natural life.

The Mew York Muddle.

It is difllcult to say whether the tam-many defection will cause a serious loss of votes to the Democrats of New York. It may take from in the city and it may add to in the country. One thing is cer-tain, the Robinson Democrats are re-doubling their efforts and every possible vote that can be secured for Robinson by money or otherwise will be hod. Democratic defeat in New York this fall means tlwt Tilden is a dead duck for 1880 and Mr. Tilden will unhead several "har'ls" before he will see Robinson de-feated. On theotherhand a Republican victory in New York this fall puts Mr. Conkling forward as a formidable can-didate for the nomination of President in the next National Republican conven-tion. It is a presidential contest over a state ticket. If Cornell is elected Conk-ling is on deck and if Robinson is elect-ed Tilden is on deck, and John Kelley wishes they were both dead. The eyes of the whole west as well as the east are on New York and the Republicans of tliat State must fully realize how much depends on them for the general result in 1880.

The Ohio C'onleat.

In a game of base IMIII a fielder often muffs and misses an easy "fly" by being too sure of his catch. The l>all appar ently is coming straight toward him and all he has to do he thinks is to stand still and rather unconcernedly or non-chalantly reach out anil take it. The sanguine fielder misses and the ball goes by him and the Captain may swear at him until after dark and it won't help the matter any.

The Republicans of Uhio have been talking about the majority they are go-ing to roll up over their opponents at the coming election in that State. Of course they are doing some good work but it is barely |iossible that they are a little too sanguine of success and that the oppo-sition may l)e taking a big advantage of it. A thorough still-hunt by the Demo-crats against a few big speeches by the Republican^ isn't a prugnunuie tliat will be likely to prove entirely satisfactory to tlie latter when the votes are counted. The Republicans of Ohio ought not to give less than 10,000 majority for Foster but they don't want to count their feathered bipeds until the process of in-cubation is completed. They had better be spending their time encouraging the old setting hen to do her level best, and prevent outsiders from disturbing or breaking up her nest.

Tbe Okolunallr.

The Okolona States bugles a few more gentle blusts and wants us to know for instance, that; —

"There is one way, and one way only to bridge the bloody cliaem.

This: Go straightway ond strangle your

Grants. Shermans and Butlers; Then down, DOWN, DOWN, flat on

your faces, and beg and pray and im plore forgiveness of our people.

This and only this can secure concili ation."

It also breathes tenderly into our ears these words:

"The Radical party shall never have the upner liand again in the administra-tion of the state:

Tliat notwithstanding the negroes have the majority, thev shall never have the might:

THAT EVERY COUNTY WILL BE-COME A YAZOO AND EVERY PAT-RIOT A BARKSDALE, BEFORE WE WILL SUBMIT TO AFRICAN SUPRE MACY."

There were numerous attractions from without on the fair grounds yesterday, prominent and foremost among them was tho Lowell Comet Band, Prof. Hicks leader. Tlie members were at-tired in neat and tasty uniforms, and they discoursed sweet music from the platform and in various localities on the grounds to the pleasure and admiration of thousands of people. Lowell has rea-son to be proud of her band.

To NIAOARA,—Our readers have al-ready noticed the advertisement in tbe JOURNAL of the great excursion to Ni-agara Falls, etc., to start Oc toiler 0 and undoubtedly many of them vlll avail themselves of the opportunity to visit the Falls and the east at tbe greatly re-duced rates offered. We are informed by the superintendent of the excursion that parties going can return on any regular trains before the expiration of their tickets, should they so desire This will lie one of the best and chea|>-est excursions of the season and there will be a jolly crowd on lioard all the way 'round.

THE FAIR.—Tlie fair at Grand Rapids last week was neither a success nor a f f i l ure and yet it was both. When we con sider what it ought to have lieen It was a failure and when we consider tliat it might liave been worse it may be well enough to call it a success. So far as the exhibition was comvmed it was about what would do credit to a county fair Some of the de|>artments were well fill ed and some were not. The show of fruit was remarkably fine. e«|ual to tliat a t the State fair. Tlie vegetable depart ment was also decently good. Art Hall was alxiut so-so—advertising bureau would lie a better name for It. The cat-tle exhibition was good what there was of it—very little of it.

J l ie attendance of people was large on Thursday and light on other days. The managers made a mistake in fixing tho admission fees so high. Fifty cents for a single admission is too much. Hun-dreds of js-ople will go three days to fair if the admission is only M cents who will go only once if they have to pay 50 cents for a ticket. We believe tlie So-ciety would liave taken in more money on 25 cent tickets than it took on 50 cent tickets. If it had taken no more the crowd would have been twice as great and tliat would liave made the fair look more like a success. We do not wish to find fault with tlie managers for they are gentlemen who have had the liest interests of the new society at heart, but they will no doubt see from this experiment that it would be lietter to alter their programme for next year if they would make the institution both popular and profitable. The burden on eNhibitors should be made as Ugbt as

ossible and every inducement held out i liave people attend the fair instead of staying at home ami grambiing over what justly seems to them extortionate demands by the society. Let tlie man-agers do tills and the second anual fair of this new society will be a for greater success Uian the first.

Ould Ireland.

On Wednesday and Thursday evenings of this week Dan Sullivan's Mirror of Ireland and Irish Comedy Company will hold ferth at Train's Hall. Of this company the Grand Rapids Demo-crat speaks as follows:

"Tho very niodest announcement of this pleahing performance was still suf-ficient to attract a large audience in spite of the rainy and unpleasant weath-er of last evening to Power's 0|iera House. The panorama possesses real artistic merit, and is Instructive and en-tertaining, Some of the views are ex-tremely beautiful. Ireland is known to possess some of the most pictures<|ue scenery In the world, and these views are interesting to the |ieoplo of all na-tionalities and doubly so to the sons and daughters of tho Emerald Isle and their descendants. Each scene is explained in a plain and entertaining manner by Mr. John Fielding. Miss Jose Moms Sullivan as "Nora," is a bright and sparkling little Irish lass full of fun and wit. Mr. Dan Morris Sullivan is ex-cellent in his specialties, which are many and varied. Altogether it is a good en-tertaining show, and furnishes a very

ijoyable evening," The original and only Fieldi

A recent number of tho Grand Rap-ids Eagle contains the following which will be of interest to many of our read-ers who remember the tragedy referred to.

Tlie escai>e of Win. D. Kingln from tho state prison and his voluntary re-turn, will recall to many in this county one of the moat singular tragedies ever enacted in this part of the state. Kin-gin and Barber were neighbors, ami on perfectly friendly terms with each oth-er. Klngin was a man highly res|iected, and when the news of his enme spread through the community the feeling of horror at the deed was'fully rivaled by the utter astonishment tliat he shoulii kill a man. Barber was town treasurer and luul held that office for several terms, which shows the estimation in which ho was held, Thev startiil to-

her early one morning from Barlier's louse in Algoma, in this county, to

come to Grand Rapids. Barber's chief errand was to pay to the county treas-urer some moneys that he had collected. Kingln had an ax on his shoulder. As be tokl tho story after ho was convicted, at the time he received his sentence, n thought of committing such a bloody deed nail previously entered his mind. But Uie thought suddenly occurred to

11. Lessiter took nine first, and eight second premiums at tlie Otisco fair. Al-so premiums on sheep.

Having attended tlie Grand Rapids fair, held last week, here are a few notes on tbe same: Have seen better fairs heretofore. Some look upon this as rather a failure; but 98.000 were taken at the gate Thursday, and at this rate the fair will prove a success.

Tlie stock department was very cred-itable. Poinological Hall seemed the center of attraction. Tbe flowers were more beautifully arranged than at for-mer fairs. There were three competitors for Vick's | i 0 premium for cut flowers. Messrs Shirts & Sessions of Shelby, Oceana Co.. who received 85 premiums at the State fair, displayed 26 varieties of plums, and 20 of peaches. Many of their peaches ripening in July and first of August could not be shown.

J . D. Hunted of Lowell hail a fine col-lection of peaches designated by num-bers as high as 50, which looked very tempting.

There was a lino display of carriages and buggies in machinery Hall, and the usual amount of different kinds of ma-chinery scattered over the grounds.

There was some disappointment iu Art Ha l t Three prominent music deal-ers in Grand Rapids withdrew from the

Set possession of the money. Kingln ropped a little behind and struck Bar-

ber with the ax. A single blow accomp-lished the terrible deed, crushing through the skull of his victim. Klngin threw the ax to one side, and pursued his jour ney until overtaken by some neighbors who liad discovered tne dead body of Barber, He went liack with some one to the fatal spot. There was a little snow on the ground, the tracks were traceable, the ax was found, and tho proofs were so conclusive that tho con victlon of Kingin WM easy a t the trial. He lias been in state prison upward of 30 years.

I o n i a F a i r I t e m a .

From our Ionia exchanges wo take the following:

George Parker' Dr. A. Peck, Dr. Mal-colm, C. M. Waters and John Mathewson of Lowell, will bring a dozen or more fine horses to the fair and enter them in their various departments. These gen-tlemen liave a very fine lot of blooded horses, and it will pay lovers of good stock to go to the grounds and see them.

Excursion rates to the Ionia county fair on all railroads leading into the city

Hoyt's Ionia City Band has lieen en-gaged to furnish the music for tho coun-ty fair. Each day they will give a fancy drill in full uniform before the grand stand. It is an exhibition worth going a good ways to see. This band was re-cently engaged to furnish the music for the great Chicago races.

Persons from a distance will liave an opportunity during fair week of visiting the Intermediate Prison and lieing shown through it by the officers. To those who have never been there it will lie matter of interest and curiosity.

Fanners, please don't come to the fair empty handed. Out of your abundant harvest you certainly liave something worthy of show. Bring it along, and thus encourage your ueighlHirs to do the same. Let your boy, who has greot pride in a big pumpkin or a flue calf, bring it to the fair. If he don't get a premium it will stimulate him to do better next year.

Hie track has lieen put in thorough repair and fenced on Imth sides. The own 'rs of fast horMes all through this section of Michigan have announcid their intention to attend the louia fair. Those who enjoy bone racing will not be disappointed if they come to see the races held in connection with our annu-al exhibition.

Tlie address will lie delivered on Thurs-day, tlie :ld day of the fair, by Hon. Benj. 11. Hill, U. S. senator from Geor-gia. He conies north on no other busi-ness than tliat connected with the fair. Mr. Hill lum a national reputation as a soldier and statesman, andnoone should miss the opportunity of hearing this dla-tin guisbsd representative man of the south.

The Atlantic.

The Atlantic Monthly for October is an excellent number. One of the most interesting articles in this number is by the author of Certain Dangerous Tend-encies. on Sincere Demagogy, and is ex-ceedingly well worth reading. Lovers of music will find an attractive article by W. F, Aptliorp on Giacomo Meyer-ber. A solid article for business men ironounces Foreign Trade no Cure for lard Times. Sidney Hyde gives an in-

teresting description of Life at a Little Court. Principle Shalrp of Edinburgh contributes an essay on Bunts and Scotch Song before Him. Wlllanl Brown do-scribes the aim and extent of the move-ment for Socialism in Gennauy. Rich-ard Grant White adds another chapter to his capital English sketches, entitled A Day at Windsor, Art lovers will read with interest a paper on the Venus of Milo, describing the discovery of this wonderful work of art and explaining the reason of the peculiar esteem in which it is held. Irene the Missionary approaches completion. Tho houso of McVicker, by M. L. Thompson, is one of tho Atlantic's excellent short stories. Poems by T. B. Aldrich, William Win-ter, T. S. Collier. Catliarino Lee Bates and Celeste M. A. Winslow; a fine varie-ty of readable paragraphs in tho Contri-butors' Club; and Notices of New Books completes the list of gixsl things the At-lantic. offers.

Geo. Loomls was seriously injured while at work at O'Brien's gravel pit yesterday afternoon. A heavy hank of earth caved off completely burying him; and had it not lieen for ready assistance he would have lieen a dead man in a very few ininiitos. He was in a helpless condition, as il was, when taken out. He was taken home and Dr. Peck found him alxiut umil up stilTeriiig from a bad-ly hurt back ami other injuries. George is reported on the gain this morning.

The German Minister of Instruction in u recent report on the inlluence of gitalight on tlie eye, concludes that no evil results follow a moderate use of Rita, if the direct action of the yellow llame on the eye is prevented. He makes grave objections to the use of zinc or lead shades—most evils affect-ing the eye being traceable to t h e m ; their use, it is said, inevitably tends lo inflammation or blindness. The milky white gloss shade is the beat, as it dis-tr ibutes the light and has a grateful in-fluence on the eye.

A t the present t ime there are pro-bably nearly fi0,000 people Hiiffering f rom what la called hay fever.

When this affection wan lirst recog-nized It was supposed Unit It depended upon the Irritation produced by the pollen of certain flowers and graaaea which floated In tho air In the montha of May, Juno, Ju ly and Auguat of each year.

Subsequently it waa clalincd tha t two dlatinct forma of t he disease ex-isted, and to one was given the name of " J u n e cold," while the other receiv-ed the name "autumnal catarrh,"

F u r t h e r observation revealed the fact that an affection characterized by symptoms essentially the same aa those seen In connection with hay asthma, hay fever, J u n e cold, rose cold, autumnal catarrh, etc., occurred in seasons of the year in which none of the supposed excit ing cauaea of the hay fever could oiierate, and for some time tlie reasoning was that It muat be aomo other dlaeaae than that pro-duced by the pollen of planta. I t waa also observed tha t certain jiersona were peculiarly affected when brought In contact with certain animal snbatun-ces, such aa warm milk. These obaer-vatlona, and othera of like character, have f rom t ime to t ime led to modifi-cations of former opinions regarding the nature of hay fever, and, a t last have given rise to a theory which has been promulgated as one capable of explaining all the phenomena of the disease whenever and wherever occur-ring.

In this country t w o liooks have been written on hay fever : one—the oldeat, and for a long time the only systema-tic monograph upon the subject—by Dr, Jeffr ies Wynmn, of lioston; the other by Dr. Oeo^ M. Heard, of New York. In Dr. Ika rd ' s book wo Untl the flrat open announcement of the theory to which we have already re-ferred, namely, the "nerve theory," This theory Is the result of the study, of one hundred caaea, and It la tha t hay fever la a neurosis. According to this theorvi the dlaeaae la subjective In-stead of objective; external Irri tants, which are exceedingly numerous, such as rag weed pollen, etc., are of a second-ary antl a tertiary character and jiow-erleas In themselves to produce tho disease only when act ing on a nervous Idiosyncrasy.

This author has described a new form of disease, which he calls the July cold, or middle form, which l inks the early fo rm,or J u n e cold, with the laler form, or autumnal catHrrh. I t aeenm to ua that the nerve theory ex-plains many of the cases which have heretofore been regarded as very ob-scure; for example, those in which t he symptoms peculiar to hay fever have continued f rom May to November, or during the winter months, or all the year round. If the nerve theory be true—and it seems to be fairly sustain-ed—It revolutlonizea tho t reatment of the disease. I t muat be attacked f rom a new point of v iew; yet It cannot be succeaafully claimed tha t all cases are to be treated alike, or tha t any speclflc can be found for IU Tho remedies to be employed are those which are not painful—not even disagreeable. Of course, removal from the exciting cause Is the primary fac tor In obtain-ing prompt relief: but , when this can-not be effected, the symptoms can be greatly relieved, and many cases cured, by audi remedies as arsenic, mix vomica, carbolic acid, bolladona, tonics and sedatives, electricity, etc., and their c o m b i n a t i o n s . — R m t r d .

Acquaintances are usually entitled to tho courtesy of a bow. I t Is jioor policy to refuse recognition because of a trilling differenco between parties.

The young lady should show a simi-lar deference to un elderly liuly, or to one In a superlofr position, that a gen-tleman does to a lady.

A gentleman who may be smoking when ho meets a lady should, in bow-ing, remove the cigar f rom his mouth and f rom her presence.

When bowing to ladies It is et iquette for the gentleman to raise his h a t from his head and slightly incline hla body. The bow should not be a mere nod.

A bow or graceful inclination should be made by ladiea wLen recognizing their acquaintances of the opposite sex. I t is the privilege of tho lady to bow lirst.

A gentleman on horseback ahould grasp whip and reins In his lef t hand, and raise his hat wi th his right, when saluting a lady. T h e lady salutes by bowing slightly.

To a casual acquaintance you may bow without speaking; bu t to those with whom you are well acquainted, greater cordiality Is due. A bow should always be re tu rned ; even to an enemy It Is courtesy to return Uie rec-ognition.

When agenUoman, accompanied by a friend, meets a lady upon the streets. It Is courtesy. In tho salutation, for the genUeman's fr iend to bow slightly to the ladv also, us'a compliment to his companion, even though unaciiuuinted with the lady.

On meeting a narty, some of whom you are intimately acquainted wi th^nd the others b u t little, tho salutation should be made aa nearly equal as pos-sible. A slight recognition of some, and a great demonstration of pleasure toward others, is a violation of eti-quette.

A gentleman should return a bow made him upon the street , even if tho one making Uie same Is not recognized. The person may jKmsibly bo u forgot-ten acquaintance; bu t even I f u mis-take has beeen made, there will be less emburuasm^nt If tho bow ia re-turned.

A warm cordiality of manner, and a general recognition of acquaintances, wltTlout undue familiari ty, is the means of diffusing much happinoaa, as well as genial and friendly feeling. In thinly settled localitloa, the habit of bowing to every one you meet liyin ex-cellent one, evincing aa it doea^klnd-ness of feeling toward all.

When meeting a lady who is a stranger in a private hallway, upon a staircase or In close promlxlty elsewhere, cour-tesy demands a bow from the gentle-man. In passing up atalrway the la-dy will iiause at the foot, and allow the gentleman to go first; and a t the head of Uie stairway he should bow, pause and allow her to precede him In the descent.

Printers 'Errora.--Two moie contribu-tions to t lwt most ferti le of subjects, printers ' mistakes! T h e editor of a w i s medical review, says the Print-ina Timet, wrote on a proof-sheet the following Instruction to the printer— "Ilfuut auUUmetUr arte soin tout Ut alineai"—in other words, "Let the quotaUon marks be carefully made." The compositor Improved upon his In-structions, and Inserted, "Il faut gull-lotiner atec soin lout let aliened—"It is necessary to gullloUne wlUi care all the lunatics." The second, not a whit less racy, must have have amused Sir Wilfrid Lawson. A t the Exeter Hall meeting of the Church of England Temperance Society, the Bishop of Exe-ter declared tha t "they were not about to give up the battle, nor had Uielr spirits sunk because they had not made such rapid progress as some had de-sired." Thoae words were thus re-ported In one of t he papers—"They were not about to give u p the bottle, nor had their spirits sunk," Ac.

W l u t e r M a n a g e n i e n t o f S h e e p

Much has been said and written In regard to the successful wintering of sheep, bu t one of the most Important things may be summed up In two worda—love them. I t la love for our pursuit that Insures its success, for that love ever prompts to constant cate and makes lalior a pleasure. To those who have been long in the business, I need not re|ieat tho advice take good care of your aheep and they will take good care of you; but those Just start-ing will bo tho gainers by remember-ing tha t a sheei*-well started In the full la naif wintered.

Sheep ahould have lietter care In early winter than farmers are In the habit of liealowlng. Wintering sheep to make them live only, la not attended with prollt, lot pricea rule high or low. Sheep are commonly neglected more in early winter than any other farm stock, for they are often the very last taken from the pastures.

If sheep go Into winter quarters In a declining state, the result is a demand for ex t ra feed and care during the win-ter, and a light clip of wool In the spring. When a aheeu la thriving, wool growa rapidly; when u aheep is declining the growth la checked. If kept fat , large fleece; If poor a l i g h t one. Sheep should have a little grain every day, from the t ime grass begins to fail in Hie full unti l i t has u good star t in tho snring. I would ra ther my sheep would have a gill of corn or outs per day from the middle of No-vember till April, than a pint a day from J an uary till J une. There should be one object conatantly before Uie mind of the flock-master, and tha t is. to keep his sheep In a thriving condi-tion.

Shelter ia one of the first objects In wintering aheep succeaafully. Farm-ers often condomn barns and sheds as unhealthy pluces for sheep, when i t Is u want of ventilation that does the In-Jury. I I is no argument ugainst hous-ing because some people keep Uiem so poorly ventilated ns to Injure their health. Nor Is it an argument against shelter for stock, because It Is Impro-perly used. I nm no believer In hav-ing sheep shut up too closely. I like warm comfortable quartera for them a t n i g h l , but they should not remain there all day. They should go out, get somo exercise, and have some sunshine af ter a storm. We ought to know and appreciate Its benllelal effects on ani-mals.

Too laigu a number of sheep should not lie wintered together. I believe seventy-five is enough for one lo t ; by no means let there lie more than one hundred. There is much more danger of disease In large flocks than in small ones. The proportion of sheep that do not th r ive Is always greater in large flocks t han in small ones. The division should be made so as to put aheep of about the same strength together. I.ambs ahould be by Uiemselves, with a few tame old sheep to keep them tame. All large and atrong wethers ahould be by Uiemaelves, also all breeding ewes, liy thia avatem of diviaion all have an equal chance which la Imposalble where large numbera of all ages and condi-tions run together.

Feeding sheep cannot be too careful-ly and Bclentiflcully done. I tahould be nttendod to, us near as possible, a t the aame t ime every day. Sheep, above all other animals,ahould h a v e a vurlety of food. They ure nuturally very partic-ular about their diet, a re fond of dain-ty bits, unJ refuse everything notcloan and wholeaome; they will go hungry before they will ea t musty hay or grain, or tha t which hits lieen trod un-der foot. No other animals should lie tolerated in a yard with sheep, for It will only result In vexation and lo«s.

Keeping sheeii Is pleasant and profit-able if attended to proiierly. Wool Is a sure thing, every year, and brings cash. I t has its tips and downs, but let any man make u p his mind tha t none bu t his wife or lulmlnlstrator ahull sell his wool for leas than fifty centa per pound, and he will come ou t all r i g h t I have bred all klnda of atock In the laat th i r ty years. My flock of sheep was originally bought of Archers, of Vlrginiu, and the Lees of Wushlngton county. P a I have no sheep for sale, but if I was a young man, and beginning with the knowl-edge I have gained, 1 would go into aheep and stick to aheep through thick and iWni.—Juhn Eliot.

Thir ty yeara ago the common sheep of Germany had only 5,000 or 5,500 wool hairs to the square Inch of sur-face; now, through improvement In breeds, the common grades of sheep have 27,000 to the square inch, and the pure-bred Merinos have f rom 40,000 to •18,000 wool hairs to Uie square inch.

The most curious Inatance of a change of Instinct Is mentioned by Darwin. The bees carried to Barba-does and the Western Islands ceased to lay u p honey a f t e r tho first year.

These are also frequently called Normans, or French horses, in the Western States. Bu t by whatever name calleJ they ure practically the same, and are distinguished by their uniformity in color, being nearly al-ways grey. Occasionally a black, roan, bay or chestnut Is seen; but fully W) per c e n t of them, both In this countrv and In France, whence they are im-ported, are grey. Those Imported to thia country will range In weight f rom 1,400 to 14)00 pounds. They usually have good heada, rather short necka, with rumps rather short and often a trifle drooping. The breed originated in La Perche, an ancient province of France, and importations from that country lo the United States have been very large since 1852, Many mares have been Imported, and a stud book is published In which the imported us well us the native purely-bred animals ure recorded, A few ataUlona have lieen imported from northern France and Belgium—some of them greys, but usuully buys—that are rather larger and coarser than the Percherons, bu t these are not eligible to record In the Percheron-Norman Stud Book,—Ato tional Line-Stock Journal

C. asks how long heifers ahould be milked with the tlrst calf, coming In ut two yeurs. We underatand C. to uak whether Uio heifer should be milked longer or ahorter than older cowa. We think there ure many reasons for giv-ing such heifers a long season of milk-ing. A s wo have often urged Uiat cows should be habituated to yield milk ten months, and as this quali ty of holding out well depends consider-ably upon food and training to . t ha t end, the heifer should be fed liberally, and milked carefully, to Induce a long season of lactation. I t la Important first, to eatabliah thia habit , and cause tier to reapond to liberal feeding; sec-ondly, it ia lietter to poatponeUie t ime of her aecond calf to the end of 16 to 18 montha, allowing her to recover from early maternity.

We think the heifer with her lirst ralf ahould always be milked a t least 12 months continuously, and better 15 montlis, and then go dry three montha liefore dropping her aecond calf. We find, f rom many experiinent8,that you may thus develop her milking quali ty, and lengthen the milking season, which are most important considera-tions, W a k n o w It Is the Imblt of some dairymen to give tho young heif-er a short season, as Uiey say, not to task her too much while so young. If all cows held out their milk equally, and could always be milked, wlUi a good flow, for ten months, when desir-ed, no mat te r when dried off a t other times, this point of rest for the heifer might have great force. But such is not the f ac t ; and one of the greatest defects in cows generally is their milk-ing so abort a period, and drying off at seven or eight monUis, In spite of oil efforts to prolong the season. This too frequently la caused by tho bad habit of drying off heifers early.

Wo do not advise meagre feeding and long milking, but generous feed-ing, such as will develop the whole system, and complete the growth of the young cow. A large milker muat be a largo eater and digester of food; and the heifer ahould have her dlgea-Uon develo|ied HS well as her milk se-creUona. We favor heifers coming in ut two years old, because when they come In a t throe years. If they have been well fed, the surplus blood has been diverted to tho laying on of flesh and f a t whllat if they had lieen giving milk, the aurplua would have gone to the udder, and thua eatabllahed and develojied this most im|Mirtant par t of her secretory system. Bu t heifers, if well fed, will not deplete their own systems to yield milk, as only surplus food Is devoted to tha t purpose. Bu t experiment proves Uiat the milk secre-tions may bo developed In the young heifer by judicious feeding, as well as the fa t and flesh secretions when not In milk.—tfof/onaJ Lice-Stock Jour-nal.
