Fire was discovered in the Van Buren county poor house about 2 o'clock on the morning of ' April 30 by an employe oE the Institution. The alarm was at Oiice given, hut owing to the high wind prevailing at the time, and the abuolute lack-of faculties with which to fight tne nmk flro, the flames held undisputed sway, and in an hour's time the whole building was a mass of ruins, and all that remained of 45 Inmates was the charred fragments of 13 persons, while one body was left after the fire In a recognizable human form. The Van Buren county poor house \i located -on a farm several miles west of Paw Paw and S miles east of Hartford. The bullaings •consist of a large twe-.tory structure, which S S f i t h w s the a a l n building; a.wing on ?£e east side: a two-=tory addition In thn rtsar of the mam building and two detatched buildinps.

Answering as it did the purposVof a prison, it was geuerally spoken of as the jdl. The first floor of the main.bulld- ' log was occupied by Superintendent Cash and his family, andthe floor above by the Rniployes Tho paupers who were the most capable •or th'-i least troublesome had quarters in the new addition. Halsy was awakened by CRIKS FKOM TUB HEAR ADDITION, And ran down the hall to the door leading into the addition. He was almost overcome by th« dense smoke which at once assailed hlni, arid saw that the building was burning furiously. It was impossible to proceed further into the intc-icr. MrHTaTsev, though nearly stifled bad presence of mind to again r,lo4e the door, and gave the alarm. Tha persons in the front T>art of the building were soon aroused, anu mads ull hristc to save their llvts. The jail being detached, there wa* ample tiruo to arouse and TCSCUO tho inmates before ih'j fire apread to that building, although little else couldybe saved. After all ihat. was possible in friewav of saving life had been done, a meslenge? wis sent ?o Hartford with th, informattou that the. buildings were buro»og. The fire englna from that place came at once, but on thelrarrival there was nothing thCy could do. The moment the state of the ruins wpu.d admit the building which was the scene of the holocaust was entered. It was found that nearlv all of the vicUms had been smothered i n . their beds, although there were indications at \ p]aced 'i*» theThgbam county jail forlirepurpose of identlfving Harrington as the man he nad talked with In Charlotts on the morning of November '22 about buying a livery stable, and also about the murder. Hol:omb wss taken-to Mason prior to Henryjiolcomb's appearance there. Witness investigated the .UL'- ing of James Foy and opined that Foy suicMed. Although he did not Unotv where Henry Ho.- comhwas during that day he didn't beheye him in any way mixed up in the ailair. lie believed that, Galen Brown either shot himself or that he was shot by the real murderer whosepurpose was to fasten susptcioa-on ihe famby. J I), Price remembered having1 seen Allen In the court room the day alter two persons tried to see Harrington in the jail. Noticed •be fellows around a good deal with Southern and Henry Holcomb. Allenrs companion accosted witness in Wcou'a saloon one day and said, "you were onto us in the court hous>, wasn't jouV. Allen paid no attention to the eonvc-rs'atiou. , , , , , : i K. J. Austin testified that he had been hired to Shadow, Allen and Hull. He did not talk with them often, but they Eaid but little about the Crouch affair. Allen once remarked that lie was afraid if Hull became very drunk he would "squeal," but did cot Bay what about. Austin volunteered his services March loth, to li'gure out or unravel Harrington's test.- inonv. T , . Mrs. McKernan. wife of the Ingham county sheriff, swore to having seen Allen and another man outside the jail at Macon on the aaa ol March. Thev wanted to get in to see the prisoners but she" would not consent, whereupon they went west to tbe railroad track. Sreriif McKereaB-testWed-tbat he admitted Allen and his companion, who was Henry episode with the three uVasTjeoTmen trnTXlgnT' after Harrington-testified if Crourh-Holcomb examination. Witness believed be had sine? seen one of the trio who he believes to JW*jfiarrln>-ton. Allen told where to find the jar of papers after 'he came from Mason .iail about Anril 11-. The reason be did not wriest Alien when be caught him uuearihing tbe paper3 in a sand DauU was because he (Allen) had promised to meet hhn at ihe next btation north. Witness said that about, three hours after Allen told him where the papers were he came to Jackson, and in company with Gilbert Wll.-on and Gunn went to.the spot indicated by Allen and found tbe papers himself und-r onW a few inches of dirt and leaves. Witness leit no word to watch Allen in his absence; Jud and Dan knew nothing abou* the parly going for the papers; Allen said Harrington told him where the papers were buried and that Kan burton had-more of the papers in his pos- •" ""• \$ McTvi'fnaTi^-of p a p e r s t h e where the jar of paper* were and how he dHg them up with his hands. Tbe narrative of his vlsltB to Mason were also given AU these were substantially as those given by the witness heretofore aud already published. Robert K. Frazer told of his connection with the Allen business. He stated that he itnew nothiug of it until afterTheilhdiug o! the papers; eati those who burledfthe papers thould be arrested. He prepared the complaint and advised that the officers be not' informed of tbe facts. Officer Murray related his connection with the case. What he had done had been entirely unser instructions from Fraaer aud Wilson, attorneys for Dan Holcomb and J«d Crouch. The woods where the jar was found was not dense but full of underbrush. He didn't believe he could have gone into the woods with the verbal description claimed to have been given bv Harrington to Allen and by AHeu to Holeomo and found the jar and papers. Gilbert Wilson, a farmer of Summit and brother of Thomas V, one of the Crouch attomeysj> testified that he went with Detective. Gunu and Henrv Holcomb where the jar and papers were found. Thev called for him at 3 o'clock in the morning. They went down the railroad to the cro*siug and stopped at the point between two sections where the section incn took off the hand cars;. Hblcombde/1 the waj and pointed out stumps and said the man had indicated a large oak tree with a crotch, aud then another oak tree with a limb run straight t oat, and then a few rods away, an elm,r which he said the man Allen had described; Holcomb said the man said that on a Hue between the oak and the elm the papers were buried under a big root; we found the root, and after trjiun several places finally Holcomb said: "Ey God, there's>something here," and soon pulled out the jar;. Mr. Gunn had passed beyond to look for another tree, but returned and was highly pleased and said: "By God, Henry, we've got it;" Mr. Gunn asked -me to watch the place, sO a6 to sec if this man Allen came around there after the papers; Holcomb said he thought >llen had more papers In his possession, as ne had seen him dig up something at Mason aud he thought he was going to the jail to<4ive them to Hurriugton', but that he did not beoause he saw "Old Gunn.''' Witness did not believe he could ever have found the 6pot from a description given,t'n 1dm by a man 40 miles away. ' The defense put on the stand Andy Stewart, the master mechanic of the M-lchljiau Central at Jackson, and James liellamv, both of whom testitied that Allen had applied for a job as_a mechanic at the railroad shop.* several, times usual iu m a n y respects- that w e v e n t u r e to roproilucH it for the benefit of o u r r e a d e r s .

IT IS claimed that fewer men are excused from jury duty in Philadelphia than any other city in the country. The judges have entire charge of the matter, and most of them are very.particular. They take few excuses. Deafness and diseases that prevent sitting long in one position are the principal ones. In that city even members of the bar sit on juries. A lady writer in the Rural^ Now Yorker says: "A mother who allows her boys to grow up ignorant of wholesome cookery and the line art of sewing faili in her duty. Ilenry Ward Beecher's mother taught him at an early age to sew; and for lads who cannot be> kept - qciot, aowiug4s aa excellent pastime.or discipline. If boys, sewed more and romped less, and girls sewed less and romped more, the gain would be mutual.11 -_ - '« • ' N B W S N O T B o A FBAKFUL BXPU)3XOX.

Near Emporium, Pa., over 10,000 acres of timbered land was laid waste, and houses and barns were burned to the (round. C o l o r e d M e u i n C o u n c i l . The inter-state conference of colored men, at Pittsburg April 29 and 80, chose as permanent officers: President—Maj. LloydG. Wheeler, Chicago; vice presidents—George A. Downing, Rhode Island; W. A.

After the work of organization the coirveuMmi proceeded to the convention business JUVJI r. One of the' tirst matters brought befor. tne convention was the resolution presented by George J. Downing of Rhode Island. It was as follows; /i'«s*?i<27'That the Republican atjtL Democratic managers have not as a rule respected the rights and proper feeling^ of colored citizens in the tnauagetnenfoi Their parties and in the administration to which they have beeu selected and elected; that this has been true in the face of repeated appeaJe and protests on the part of the colored people and friends that we choose.

He served as clerk in hotels for hfty-ouo years in Boston, Philadelphia, San 'Francisco and New York. Ho won his fame at the St. Nicholas, in New York, and twenty minutes befoie he died a gang of 300 men began pulling dew'n the hotel. Lewis Leland comforted and cared for Mr. Caddigan in his last days. AN ethnologist connected with one of the leading educational institutions of Ohio says that many evidences seem to show that the Indians of this country are lineal descendants of tEe~Heb~fews; that they originally used the Hebrew language, and that—tire reason some ^ a t d r Indian words—resemble words—used among the Arabs is probably ihut the Arabs are descendants of lshruael, Abraham1 s SOB who probably used the Hebrew language, used by his father and other Hebrews. Several months ago the state board the colored voter to await events and declarations and not a t the present time commit hlmself- to any political party. A motion that the resolution be considered in executive session caused a very lively discussion, so much so iu fact that the motion was withdrawn. Capt. T. J. Griflin of Connecticut submitted a petition for the United States Senate in behalf of the mighty army of African citizens asking the passage of a bill treating a commlssiou to inquire into and report upon the material, industrial and intellectual progress made by colored people of the country &ince l i u j . fie aleo offered a resolution declaring that the fealty of the co'ored man was due, not to Republicans or Democrats, but to that spirit which guRrantccs the fullest liberty Ut the race. The second resolution opposed separate schools based on color. the committee on resolutions reported a series declaring t h e so-called civil rights decision unjust anduuwi6e; that the Republican and Democratic parties have not respected the rights and proper feelings of colored citizens, and that a committee be appointed to meet after the two great political parties have held their national conventions, and afrer. reviewing expressions and nominees Issue an address to the colored voters and country generally, saying what, in its judgment, worrlti be the best policy for them to pursue in the Presidential campaign and election.

He shall also collect such information on those subjects as may be valuable to the agilcul'.urai and commercial Interests of the United States for the purpose of t h e bureau. The Comraissione/ of Agriculture 1B authorized to employ a force of not to exceed twenty persons a t any cue time. The Commissioner is t o appoint two competent agents, who shall be practical stock raisers, or men experienced in commercial transactions affecting live stock, who shall report the. best manner of transporting and caring for animals, and the means t o be adopted to suppress and eradicate pleUro pneuino nla and other dansrerbus contagious or communicable diseases. The compensation of such agent* is fixed at 110 per day. The Commissioner is to prepare, as early as possible, such rules and regulations as may,be necessary to extirpate the disease named, and to certify such rules, etc., to the executive authority or each State and Territory, aud invite the co-operation of such executive authority in the execution of the act of Congress. When the rules, etc., shall have, bveu accepted by suck executlve authority, the Commissioner may expend lu the state so accepting so much money as may be necessary for the purpose of the investigations contemplated by the act, and for such disinfection and quarantine measures us may be ueccesary^o prevent the"spread" of the "disease from one State 05.-TrrriU.1ry into another.

The members placed in charge of this work were Col. Wm. 15. McCrearv, of Flint, and T. D. Dowoy, of Owosso. These gentlemen have carefully performed their task and the lands are again placed in market, at prices ranging from $5 to $15 per acre. Under the old system they all bore a uniform price. A descriptive book in the state land office shows the character of tho soil and timber orTSacb. 40 acres of the lands now in market. FRIDAY, tho 30thinst., will be Memorial day, and Department Commander Rush J. Shank, G. A.

A $1,«00 deputy sergeant, a $1,000 ^uotojed assistant and a $84tf white assistant make it their chief business to keep thd ran of the towels in the washroom of tho United States Senate. The number of every clean towel given out and every soiled towel taken away is counted separately and- checked" off separately by these three able officials. This careful system, borrowed from the auditor's office of one of the great trunk railroads, has been adopted because the United States Senators havo been*in the habit of stealing the dirty towels and taking them home to their frugal wives; if they stole the value of the- salaries now paid to prevent their larcenies, they must havo carried off nearly $4,- 000 worth annually; which at wholesale prices must have amounted to 20,000 a years, or 150 for every working day of tho session.

The Toronto Globe credits many young Canadian women \Vith the good sense of no longer regarding domestic service as meniali as women generally seem to believe, -and prefer the drudgery of the kitchen to the drudgery of the factory. T h e resu of this change of feeling is that good domestic servants can be obtained a t moderate wages, which, for plain cooks, range from $8 to $10 a month, and for house maids from $6 to $8. If more American girls could be made t c see domestic service in the same light these Canadian girls do, they .would be better fed, better clothed, better housed and happier. Woman's best friend for relieving the, many pains and weaknesses incidental to female life, and one that gives rosy cheeks, brightens the eyes, checks every unnatural drain and creates a perfect picture of liealth and beauty, is Dr. Guysott's Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla. It purifies the blood, strengthens the female system, and removes all feeling of "lauguor, distress, pimples,, sores and weakness, producmgidreamless slumber and painless regularity of natural functions.

Prom-oar Correspondent. ' H. ti. Km'man, editor of the Stockbridge Sentinel, went to Jackson Saturday last, and has not been here since / His office is closed. This (Wednesday) morning, Br. Choate, of Jackson, came here. He says Mr. Freeman left his office, in Jackson, Sunday morning, and h&has not heard of him since-- and Mr. Freeman's family know nothi n g 'of his ^hereabouts. Dr. Choate thought Freeman had broken down from overwork. With his nervous temperament the management of two newspapers (the Stockbridge Sentinel and JJbe Jackson Sunday Sentinel) was too much for hin». Up to the present writing nothing has been heard from the missing man, and it is probable that the Sentinel will not be issued tomorrow. The case is & sad one, and much sympathy is felt for the family, who, in their uncertainty cf the whereabouts of the husband ,jyid father, are in much distress. J. Beuier, shoe maker from Waterloo, has cpme to Jive with us, and from ihe large stocjt and general appearance should say that Stockbridge has got just what they have long wanted. He comes well_ recommended and has plenty of work In prospect. Stockpridge has gained a good cit'zen, and 'Waterloo has lost one, that is what his old friends tell. us. Rev. Mr. Lowery*"wiIl hold M.

Dell Beebe and Lyman Green, of Fowlerville, came down yesterday, and accompanied by Thompson Beebe and John Conklin, have gone into camp for a few days fishing on the Huron and lakes connected therewith. The great sink-hole west of Stcckbridge, which prevented the passage of trains for nearly a week, has at last been brought up nearly level again and trains -are running over it "with care." Joseph Kirkland, of Uuadilla, has been suffering from brain fever for something over a week past—being aeTirious much of the time. Dr. Du* Bois is hopeful that he may recover in due time, however. N. Coleman and Albert Reason are putting up a building near the Grand Trunk depot, for a planing mill. Tbey will run it by steam power and*expect to have machinery for planing and moulding in place very soon. Their building will he about 20x60 feet in dimensions. The enterprise is a commendable one. A very qtttetr"and pleasant social event took place at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Martin, of West Putnam, on the evening of the 13th inst, the occasion being the marriage of their eldest daughter, Hattie, to our thrifty young townsman, Mr. Chas, B^ Eaman. Precisely at 7 o'clock the contracting parties appeared before a small circle of near friends and invited guests, when the nuptial knot was tied by the Rev. F. E. Pearce, of this village. After receiving the congratulations of friends -and partaking of the customary collation, the newly* wedded couple repaired to their pleas ant home on the Burr Oak Plains, re , cently fitted up for their reception, where they will begin at once to meet the stern realities of married life. The 1mdV waa the recipient of numerous beautiful prescnte. The circuses are raiding the State this spring/ Cornelius Henry, ot Dexter, is visiting relatives and friends here this week. Rev.

He carries a bag and pipes on what is in it—how would "bagpiper" do? On Monday next, the voters of this township must decide whether the property known as the "public square" shall become in reality such, and as we hope be improved and become an attractive teaturerrf the Tillage and the pride of the township, or whether, on the contrary, it shall remain for years as now an "eye sore" to the public and a disgrace to the village and township. As we have before stated, the township is in a measure responsible for the present condition ot affairs, having by its neglect during the many years this property was in its possession to suitably improve and perfect its title thereto. It is an obstacle which menaces the future growth and prosperity of the vrHageT and while the expensa- ofjftnlaiming jt may seem large, it d^es not come with good grace from any who stood back and would willingly have seen the effortsjif the_JIowell land sharks to gobble the square succeed, say now that too much was ex- }>ftrvdf>d in fighting those iniquitous leeches, who make4trthetr business-toprey upon the imperfectty" protecteddomain of the public. Not that we would wish to find fault with any who woul6V"have honestly preferred to see the square used for business purposes providing it could have been so appropriated on a good sound title. But it is useless to talk of such arrangement at the present time, as all understand that the contract now on record, as well as other circumstances pertaining thereto, prevent such .a disposal of the property for several years—and it is doubtful if it could ever be accomplished without protracted and expensive litigation. Hence the only f<r»cticable means for settling the question at once and forever is the purchase designed to be made by the contract submitted to the electors of the township on Monday next. And while the sum required may seem quite an outlay, it must be borne in mind that the building now on the ground (and part of the property) is worth nearly the sum called forf and the rent to be received from the village, and the proper use of the building for township purposes, would be fair interest on the investment— if any were inclined to take a mercenary view of the affair. Mr. Kirkland's card, published in another column, properly1 explains the position of the parties in whose name the title of the property now rests. Some may think that Judge Bangs was paid a very large attorney fee, but it should be remembered that this was a remarkable case, and it was largely due to the matchless skill of Judge Bangs that the infamous plot of fraud and deceit so cunningly woven by the shrewd (and hitherto successful) land pirates was so neatly unraveled and torn in pieces. We have known larger fees to be paid in cases of less importance— but this is not pertinent to the subject Undoubtedly the land-pirates whose scheme has been so damaging to Pinckney for the year past would rejoice to see the proposition for purchase defeated, so that the square migH lie in4ts-^present unsightly condition for a lew years longer, but we trust the good sense ot the people will prevent any such result, and that, laying aside all past differences of -opinion, all will unite-in an effort to pro For tropical fruit $1,745,357 waa paid at the port of New York during 1883.

The deposits in this bank are said to be over ten millions of dollars. Stock speculators are_wildwUh_ excitement, and railroad stocks are rapidly going to the bottom.

To the Citizens of Putnam TowosTOfr: - T h e heirs-ef-Wm^-Kirkland, whose. childhood memories are affectionately connected with Pinckney and its public square, most earnestly hope that that "well known arid mtrohloved piece of ground will liow, at once and forever, be dedicated to public use, as our lamented father and mother desired it should be, and believed it was. The writer hereof knows, of his own knowledge that the eight citizens who now hold the title and offer it to the township, have actually paid out in cash every cent which it is proposed ph&U be raised by taxation, and have, besides given gratis their time, abili t y a n d attention to the undoing—of the wrong done in the alienation of the square from public into private hands.

IKVerv little more of the rariff question will "be heard in the House durlnpr tibe remainder pf thp present .session of con'frress. Tuesday, May 6t was the most ex- • citing duy on the fljaior of the House known In many years. On this day a vote was taken on the motion to strike out the enacting clause of the Morrison hill, and when the result was announced It WAS found that the protectionists had named the victory, and the tariff Issue a goes to the people. Ic Is claimed this decided 9 victory" for th* protectionists was brought gbont by the vote cast by .29 W>tt'-*? Democrats who voted with the protectionists. Wheii ether business had1 been disposed of the House went Into committee of the whole on the tariff, bill, Mr. Browu a Republican of Pennsylvania taking the floor In favor of the protective system of taxation.

He discussed the effect of tbc.tariff upon consumers of manufactured articles, and especially those who were engaged in agricultural pursuits, asserti »g that less than one million of people are benefitted by protection while the vast majority were compelled to pay tribute to the more favored classes. Mr. Tdwnsend said the Democratic party had a mission to perform and that mission was to emancipate the masses from their bondage to monopolies. Like the slavery question, the great issue of the tariff would not down, but would press itself to the front and absorb all others Great excitement prevailed when Mr. Randall, Democrat, of Pennsylvania took the floor and woke In opposltlen to the bill. He first called attention to the extreme readiness with which capital Invested in large industrial establishments took alarm.- With^dH)ther interests it was liable to be called on by taxation to aid in the support of the government, but congress was in duty bound to eee that nothing like a vindictive policy be adppted. Those who are engaged la Industrial pursuits arc a part of the business of the country, and as a part of our resources are entitled to the protection of the law. Mr. Randall argued against • the policy of unsettling the business " interests of the country by constant •tinkering with the tariff, as it was a suicidal poliej and would be madness for any party to puttue it. The present measure was not based —on any sound principle) and., this fact was clearly recognized by its- defenders, who had no defense to offer, simply*making apologiesfor i t There was clearly no attempt for an adjust <MHt of th« tariff, but simply a slashing right wad left rcmrdlcsfof the Injustice it might do to tho tooustries as well as to the revenue, andln b»_jvpinion was but a palpable confesaMnjfuSnUlty to haflole tne great- problem.

The steamship State of Florlda,whlcli left New V ork Aprill3,was sunk in mid-ocean on the 18th of that month bv collision with the Norwegian bark Vouoma. Twenty-four of the passengers were picked up by a passing VCSECI and brought to Montreal by the steamer TLtauia from Glasgow, to which they were transferred. It steamer, and 13 with the bark, which also sunk James Allen, the third officer of the Florida gives the following account of tbc disaster :— "The night on which the disaster occurred was clear, though moonless, and the sea smooth as glass. He retired to his bunk at 8 o'clock, leaving Chief Oflicer Thompson in charge of the deck. About 11:10 heard the signal suddenly given to stop the steamer's engines, followed by a fearful crash. Rushed Immediately on deck, and the first thing he noticed was a red light pretty dose on their starboard bow. At the same moment heard the chi«>f officers w i e e ami the cry 'eolljtjlon.' Port^lved the bark which had run Into them go down. This bark, he afterwards learned from Its captain and two of Its rrtfw, who wtre picked up and saved, was the Pomona, of Chatham, N. B., bound from Liverpool to Mirlmichi. Running to the side of his own vessel, he endeavored to ascertain the damage done, and perceiving an immense, gaping hole, into which the seas were fast pouiing, and feeling, as he said himself, that The Bteamer was a goner, at once hurried to the captaiu, who immediatejy gave orders to get out the boats, four of which were down in fifteen minutes, when the State of stern foremost." As far as he could calculate tbc. disaster occurred in latitude 49 north, longitude 35½ weSjt, or about 120 miles off the Irish coast, as when their last bearings were taken that day they were about 47.50 north, 38.35 west. A9 the vessel went down all on deck, including the captain, were washed off i>ythe saa. Allen further stated that the captain was exceedingly cool—too cool in fact, as he did not seem to look upon the danger as serious or pressing, and tnls, together with the fact that he appeared in no hurry to save himself was possibly the cause why more of the passengers were not saved. They would not take to the boats as tbev supposed when they saw him so cool the danger was not so great, and moreover thesea was so~calm. Of. tbe eight boats carried, four were safely launched. Two were smashed by the collision. 0 ( the other two he knew uotoing, but believed tosit they were washed away when the, steamer went down. He did not believe any oue had escaped in them; However, if they'did he did not want to raise any fiUse hopes," his opinion being that they n e w would he ' heard from again. When No. 2 boat . was being lowered 'lie tackle was cut too quickly ami ils occupants, all paescnwere upset^ luto the sea. A uuruber was resumed. Mr. Vance made a strong humorous speech in favor of free ships. Mr. Voorhees spoke againat free ship legislation a^d ugalnst the repeal of the navigation laws. The proposition of tbe senator from Missouri (Vest) was revolution; It wax nothing less than turning over our sblp bulldiug to England. Mr. Plump salil the decline of the merchant marine was theiugical outgrowth or result of circumstances practically beyond control.

Mr. Randall '£*v; > • : • . m * • % * • W •HM. spoke at great lcngth,clearly defining his posl Von and clqscd with the following- word. ' x. eoristsmight fight for impossible doctrines, but he knew by experience how futile In government wiitf mere theory, and how valuable was common ecnee. He believed in that which had stood the strain of long practice, nor could he be cxpoctod to yield it for feomothing impossible and Impracticable." His speech was greeted « with deafenlne applause when Mr. Blackburn, Democrat, of Kentucky took the floor iu support of the bill, speaking first of the great neceesity existing for a reduction of the surplus .evenue, and advocating the adoption of the present measure as tbc surect "and safest way in which such a desideratum could be. brought about. Hu opposed a repeal of the Internal revenue systeiu. of taxation, and said that even its staunchesi friends advocated it for tire -sole purpose or maintaining protective tariff rates. The issue rresented by the Republicans was protection lor tbe sake of-protection, but the time was not far distant when the people would repudiate the hypocrisy of the protectionists, and refUBC to submit to such political jugglery. The tariff question was the issue in Amerl- - « » a pettltes J**^ eotrto. not be treated lightly. From a party point of view he welcomed the contest, and the Democracy would appeal to tbc people. If the pending bill was defeated there was nothing left for the partv except to go to another court higher than the halls of Congress, and there it would appeal for the triumph of the piinclples for which they had struggled for the last 100 years, principles which had guided this great government, and which accounted for the Democratic ^aajorlty in the House to-day. Mr. Blackburn eulogized the work already done by the party, and felt very confident that its past record entitled it to the support of the people for all tlme,and In conclusion sal*!: I express tho hope that In the near .future we may be' able to bring to the House enough <shllghtehment,, patriotism, progressive intelligence/ to repudiate bigotry which disgraces politics in tbc shape Of protection. No bigot, whether he be Christian or politician, ever contributed one atom to the advancement of / h u m a n i t y ' s £ause, and I ask at the hands ct this House, with a firm reliance for a favorablo ansVcr, that it mav never be snid r.hat the Democratic House In tho American Congress refused even to consider a bill which proposed to reciuc? admitted excessive taxation, and re- ' * ; • / fe'dPi^ /. r"v vise to a degree an admittedty-fcad taritjh- Mr. Kasson, Republican, of Iowa, closed the debate in opposition to the bill in a severe arraignment of its provisions, which he declared to be impossible of adminiitratiou. Mr. Kasson proceeded, in reply toMr, Blackburn's speech, to derail tbe benefits which the country bad dtrLved from tho protective system, and hi* remarks .were constantly greeted with the aiplause of his party associates. '*A11 hall,'1 he exclaimed, in conclusion, "t» the giant of protection which strews his pathway with gold and line* all our borders with flowers r/popul*r.**»2ifort."

Amid almost breathless silence Mr. Cameron, Democrat, of Ohio, moved to strike o a t tbe enacting clause^ . This -was the signal for groans and hisses from the. Dem ocratic side, but was met with rounds of applause by tbe Republican side. On Mr. Converse's motion, tho committee rose And tbe chairman reported its action to tfae House.

A - n' EXTRADITION TREATT. 1 bCuaTQ-de for some time past .'.les of Detroit and other places along the na-thern frontier to induce the" government to enter Into negotiations with the British authorities looking to a wider scope of the extradition treaty between the United States and Canada.—Som? weeks ago two of the municipal officers of Detroit called upon Secretary Irclinghuysen toi convince him of theurgeut need for the extension of extradition to the mltor criminals. This visit was supplemented by a visit from Prosecuting Attorney Caplls of Detroit who went to Washington on the 6ime business?. He had frequent interviews with the secretary of 6tate and'left with the assurance thatthe govcrnmeht Is convinced of the necessity of tbc amendment asked. The secretary has cbntulted Minister West and finds her majesty's government is as anxious to break up the sanctuaries of Canadian criminals on the American side as the Americans are to drive their own wrong doers from Canadian harbors. The result Is that the secretary has sent to congress amendments to the existing treaty which will if satisfied, allow of the extraaitlou ot thieves and burglars as well as those charged with graver crimes. The amendment will also follow, to some f xtent, the outllue of the treaty now in' operation between "this country and Mexico, which permits certain ofticefs on either side of the bord< r to examine escaped culprits and semi thorn • back 4o the officers of the other country without appeal to executive cilice rs.

TEUHIHLE SCENES, The survivors also remember with a shudder the dash for the boats as the ship went down, amid the 6hrleksand. lamentations,of the passengers. Those on duty at the time remember- seeisg-~a red light hash for— an_instant,. followed bv an Instantaneous crash, after which nothing but confusion followed, the steamer beginning to sink aud hurried preparations being made to launch the boat,e. The bark went down instantaneously. The frightened passengers rushed on ^ e c k in their night clothes, and a scene of indescribable confusion occurred. Women went Into hystertcs and refussd^to move. The women especially OBJECTED TO LEAVING THE DOOMED VESSEL. Some who could have bcen^ saved absolutely refused to budge an inch. Those who clung to the bottom of the capsized boat all night suffered terribly from the icy cold wa'cr, though the sea was calm. Nevertheless they did not lose heart. One of their number a man named Donaldson, was underneath the capsized boat till they were picked upinthemcrnlng. When she capsized he kept, bis hold and went over with her, managing to secure a positloQ above the bare, where he remained talking to himself and moaning until he swooned. His companions on the outside were unable to assist him. Iu the morning when tbey were picked up the bottom of the boat had to be broken through to get him out, when he presented a horrible appearance from his long exposure to the waves and "tho "lack cf frojh air. A few days afterward, however, he was all right again.

I t 13 now generally be.'ieved that the gross llabllltlesof lirant and Ward reach nearly $10,000,000, while some believe the sum will exceed those figures, and that when tho full detail* of the transaction of the , bank and of Grant and Ward ure made known It will be shown that the failure is even greater than that of Jay Cook iu 187^, There Is now little room for doubt that Gen. Grant's fortune has bceu almost entirely swept' away.

A friend ol Wara'asaia taa.press reporter that there was no doubt but the collapse o/ the firm was due to Ward's individual speculations which he is said to have begua two years ago (unknown to the other partuera),ln which War -J, being a bull, lost verv heavily. The speaker said It would be found in time that millions had been put in the firm by others and lost through speculations. McNamee, assignee of Col. Fred W. and Jesse Grant said he would be unable to furnish any information to the public until the affairs of Grant & Ward arc straight. Davis, his partner, .was dolnj: all he could to bring order out of chaos regarding the firm's affairs. Several companies who intrusted large amounts ol securities lu the hands of Grant & Ward which were rehypothecated have been engaged, through counsel of others, in recovering them from the bankers and brokers with whom Ihey were pledged. An officer ol the First national bank said that no legal steps had yet been taken to recover the $215,003 which Ward drew on worthless checks just belore the failure. "It Is no debt," said the official. "Ward Jiasjcendered himself crimlnaly liable in this as he has In other transactions which came to light. I would not be surprised to hear of the arrest of sither Ward or Ftsh at any im> ment." Ge/jeral sympathy is expressed for President Grant and sous.

The first lime was in my hour of triumph, when i had won fame and' comrades shook me wished me joy; but t live to share my grat or's face grew bright] The second was when I lay ill in the hospital in India. The doctor came one day. a n d I heard him tell one of my brother-officers that he did not think I should Ijive. 'Poor Charley!' said my friend. 'I suppose Travers would take his place.' Then, do you know, Miss Brooke, I turned my face to the wall and wept like a child. Who was there to care whether I lived or died? If I died, there would be a military funeral; for a few weeks the men would talk about me: they would give me a gravestone, and on it would say, ^In aff , - tionate remembrance," and then Travers would take ray place. I n whoso heart would my memory live? "Who would shed one tear over my grave? Those are naLpleasaut thoughts for any m a n . " May's eyes were filled with tears; and then, in some broken way, the Captain asked her to' be the one who would love and.care for him, and brighten his life. He told her how he had learned to love her, and how he feared to ask her to be his wife because he felt so unworthy of her. The sweet face was half turned from him, but in the dim evening light he could see how her chreks grew pille; he felt the little hands he clasped so tightly in his own tremble.'and grow cold. ' "If you will only love me, May," he pleaded, "and be my wife, I will give my life to -you." I will, make you the happiest woman in the world. shall shield you *frora Can you care 'for me?'' She was silent for some minutes; then she turnetrrand said gently— " I do love you, and I Will be true to you until I die." _ How he thanked her! How his heart filled with gratitude and love! And then Captain Ruthven redeemed his ring twenty times over, and she said nothing against it! T h a t evening, when Captain Ruthven told the Doctor of the treasure that he had won, his friend's calm sensible face was strangely moved; U I am glad you are happy, Charley," he said. "You have won the best girl in tho world. Take care of her."

Jackson was not cultured or accomplished, but he had a, strong, well-balanced mind, and he would go through forests of sophistry anil masses of legal opinions, straight to the point. Governor Wise, who admired him greatly, used u> tell a story illustrative, of the rough bark of Old Hickory's character. During the administration of President Monroe, Gen. Jackson in command of some troops, invaded Florida and captured Arbuthnot and Ambrister, two Englishmen who, it was charged, incited t^e Indians to depredations, just as the carpet baggers now incite the Negroes to riot. He at|once ordered a court-martial and bad them haDged, with but little time to prepare for their future abode. He was arraigned for the offence before t>he Cjal> met of Mr, Monroe, and Mr. Adams, the Secretary of State, defended *liim on tho high ground of international law as expounded by Grotius, Vattel and Puticndorf. Jackson, who had quarrelled with Mr, Monroe, was disposed to regard the matter las entirely personal "D—n Grotius; d—n Pufiendorf; d—n Vattel," said h e ; " this is a mere •\^y ]Q^_Ljnjitter between J i m Monroe and m e .

Mr. Forsyth, then Secretary of State, adroitly changed the language dictated by the President to soften it and make the message more diplomatic in terms, and more comformable, ,to peaceful anc> courteous National intercourse. But when Mr. Donelson, the President's private secretary, read to him from the proof_ sheets, Jackson stopped him when he got to the , part relating to France, '"Read that again, feir," said he; " t h a t is not my language: it has been changed, and I will have no other ejipression of my own meaning than my own words-" Tho original words were substituted, and his absolute dictation wrung from France tho money Which never c«mld have been obtained through diplomacy.

So this wooing went on through the long bright summer months, and at length the day was settled for the marriage— the tenth of September. Almost all the inhabitants of Upton were in the little church to see it. No such wedding was remembered by the oldest inhabitant. It was scarcely to be believed t h a t a brave young officer, wounded in one of those "terrible .wars that they had read of, had come to their quiet little town and found a wife there.

The question whether or not postage is required to be pre-paid on first-class matter forwarded, on which the full amount of postage has not been prepaid, is settled by the following from tho last issue of the Postal Guide : a it A SPECIAL (MSTABLE. BY CHAKLES HEAIiE. Two women, sisters, kept the toll bar at a village in Yorkshire. It stood apart from the village and they often feit uneasy at night, Deiog lone women. One day they, received a considerable sum of money, bequeathed them by a relatiun, and that set the simple souls all in aflutter. They had a friend in the village, the blacksmith's wife; so they went and told their fears. ' She admitted that theirs was a lonesome place, and she would not live there, for one, without a man. Her discourse sent them home downright miserable. The blacksmith's wile told her husband all about it when he came in for his dinner. " T h e fools!" said he; "how is anybody to know they have got brass in the h o u s e ? " " W e l l . " s.-iid the wife, "they make no secret of it to me; but you need not gofor to tell it t o all tha ^town—poor souls!" " N o t I , " said tho m a n ; " b u t thoy will publish it never fear; leave womenf oik "alone l o F m a S I n g their own trouble with their tongues." There tho conversation dropped, as man and wife have things to talk about besides their neighbors The old women at tne toll-bar, what with their own fears and their J o b ' s comforter,_beg_an to shiver with apprehensions as night came on. However, at sunset the carrier passed through the^ gate, and at sight of bis friendly face they brightened up. They told him their care, and begged him to sleep in the house that night. " W h y , how can I ? " said he; " I ' m due at—"—; but I will leave my d o g . " The dog was a powerful mastiff. T h e women looked at each other expressively. " H e won't hurt us, will he?" sighed one of them, faintly. " N o t he,' '-said the rarror, cheerfull y — T h e n he called the dog into the house and told thorn to lock the door and went away whistling." The women were left contemplating tho dog with that tender interest apprehension is sure to excite. At first he seemed staggered / a t this off-hand proceeding of his m^»ter, it confused him; then he snuffed at the door; then, as the wheels retreated, he began to see plainly he was an abandoned dog; ho delivered a fearful howl and flew at the door, scratching and barking furiohsly: The old woman fled the apartnient and Wore next seeji at an upper window screaming at the carrier: "Come back! come back, John! He is tearing the house down." — " D r a t Lhu varmiut!" said John, and Section 32, page 4 3 2 - 1 0 insure letter being forwarded on the mails, must have not less than two cents in postage stamps affixed.

On tho road he thought what was best to be done. Tho goodnatured fellow took his great coat out of the cart and laid it down on the floor. Tho mastiff instantly laid himself on it. " N o w , " said John, sternly, "let us have no more nonsense; you take charge of that till I come back, and don't ye let nobody—steal that there, nor yct,t' wive,s brass. There, n o w , " said h,?, kindly to the women, " 1 snail be back this way before breakfast time, and he won't budge till t h e n . " ••And he won't hurt us, J o h n ? " "Lord, no! Bless your heart, ho is as sensible as any Christian, only, Lord sake, woman, don't yo go to take the coat from him, or you'll be wanting a new gown yourselfi and may bo a petticoat and a l l . " He retired, arid the old wom^n kept at a respectful distance from their protector. He never molested them; and indeed, when they spoke cajolingly to him he even wagged his tail in a' dubious way; but still, as they moved about. ho squinted at them out of his bloodshot eye in a way that checked all desire on their par/t to try on the carrier's coat. Thus protected they went to bed earlier than usual, but they did not undress; they were too much afraid of everything, especially their protector. The night wore on and presently their sharpened senses let them know that the dog was getting restless; ho snuffed, and then he growled, arict~then he got u p and pattered about, muttering to himself. Straightway, with furniture, they b a r r i c a d e d the door through which their protector must pass to devour them. B u t by and by, listening acutely, they heard a scraping and grating outside the window of the room where the dog was, and he continued growling low. This was enough; they siippod out at the back door, to save their lives; they got into the village. I t was pitch dark, and all the houses dark but two, one was the public house, casting a triangular gleam' across the road a long way off, and tho other was tho blacksmith's house. Here was a piece o fortune for the terrified women, ••Oh, J a n e ! the thieves are c o m e ! " and they told her in a few words all that had happened. " L a ! " said she; " h o w timorous y o n ' are! ten to one he wa« only growling at some one that passed b y . " "Nay, J a n e , we heard the scraping outside the window. Oh, woman, call your man and let him g o with u s . " 4 'My man—he i« not h e r e . " " W h e r e is he, t h e n P " " I suppose he's where other workingwomen's husbands are, at the pnb- 11c house," said she, r a t h e r bitterly, for she had her experience. The old women wanted to go to the public houie for him; but the blacksmith's wife was a courageous woman, and, besides, she thought it was most likely a false alarm. " N a y , n a y , " said she, "Jast t h u e l went /or bim there I got a fine affront. I'll come with y o u , " said she, "I'll take the poker and we have got o u r tongues to raise the town with, I suppose." So they marched to the toll-bar. When they got near it they saw something that staggered this heroine. There was actually a man half in and half out of the wiridow. This brought the blacksmith's wife to a standstill, a n d the timid pair implored her to go back'to the village, " N a y , " said she. " W h a t for? I see but one—and—hark! it is my belief the dog i* holding of him " However, she thought it safest to be on the same side with the dog, lest the m a n might turn on her. So she made her way into the kitchen, followed by the other two, and there a sight met her eyes that changed all their feelings, both toward t h e robber and toward each other. Tho great mastiff had pinned a man by the throat, and was pvdling at him to draw h i m through the window, with fierce b u t muffled snarls. The m a n ' s weight alone prevented^it. T h e window was like a picture frame, and in t h a t frame there glared, with lolliLg tongue and starting eyes, the white face of the blacksmith, their eouragous .friend's villainous husband. She uttered an appalling scream, and flew upon the dog and choked him with her two hands. He held and growled, and tore till he was all but throttled himself; then ho let go, aud the man fell. But what struck the ground outside like a l u m p lead was in truth a lumb of elav! The m a n was quite dead ami fea-faly torn_ about the throat. So did a ci rnedy end in an appalling and most piteous t r a g e - dy; not that the scoundrel himself deserved any pity, but his poor, brave, i o n e s t wife, to whom he had not dared confide the villainy he meditated.

Patrick* Casey (coroner) testified to visiting the spot where the papers were found; had heard the bearing described by Mr. Holcouib aa he said Allen had told him that Harrington had told him. I am thoroughly acquainted with cars, e t c , aud think the can could not possibly have remained there all winter without the top corroding, and iso rubber moulding; I should judge It remained in the earth' less than three weeks.

In TJudge Withey's opinion subscribers to, aa well as publishers'of such socalled periodicals are included in the statute prohibiting the circulation of obscene literature through the, mails. The extent to which these publications are circulated is a matter of very great coneem, the suppression of which demands the earnest effort of all. The hope of our country is in the youth of to-day, and it is the duty of all - who have the power, to see that their young minds are not contaminated by the virulent wajJin^jnatterj to them in every possible guise. WM. P. INNIS, commissioner of railroads, htsissued a circular calling at- "Now, by my halidame, and did I enjoy not an afternoon's sport myself I were worse than an infidel"; and thou.

Joseph Allen was now put upon the stand and told the Btory of his transactions with Henry Holcomb." Allen's testimony showed that he wa3 -never near the Crouch place nor in the locality where the papers were buried. .Other evidence corroborated his statement, hio deal with Henry Holcorftb showing thatrTtre"" latter first produceil the„documents and tried t o induce^Aiten to shove them on to Harrington.

At the conclusion of the examination the prosecuting attorpey seconded the motion made-by the attorney for Allen tohaye the prisoner discharged. He believed Henry Holcomb's testimony to be false, and the arrest of Allen a scheme to fix the murder on Harrington at the sacrifice of Allen.

The vicLim conceives an uncontrolablo horror of some very commonplace experience, as riding on soirie particular street or car line, crossing a particular river at a particular point, p*assing beneath the shadow certain building, passing by some one statue, etc. One case recently reported was that of a literary gentleman who could no more write di than he could face a fire engine. Ho knew it was very absurd, but he could not help ft. For church, patch, scratch, match, etc., ho must use some synonym. He would tremble so before the unconscious thought of writing those two consonan ts that he felt compelled to go by some other routo to the end in view. + — Iftnou wouldstbear thy neighbor's faults, cast thine eyes upon thine^ own. ; KRRVOnS DRBILITS;. orgaalo "intn-** fttwl to Ckj, Aad iMHoui ok. •car* dtaMM*. k«OlM •UUftU pbMtolM*, Wtufi fr«ra ywttftil indUd*- tlooj, too ffco Indulgence, nod owr bfaia work.

Unhealthy or inactive kidneys cause gravel,. Bright's disease, rheumatism, and a horde of other serous and fatal diseases, which can be prevented with Hop Bitter3 if taken in time. Ludington, Mich.

' G. W. Reason talks of moving his machinery warehouse from its present location, on Pearl street, to the lot south of tbe^ Monitor House on Howell street. Good idea, for two reasons —first because it is an unsightly obstruction where it is now located; and second' because it will be much more useful in a business point-of view at the new location talked of. The upper story would make a good hall, and the idea of using it for a roller skating rink would look very feasible providing it is moved up town. At a regular meeting of Waddeli Pest, No. 120 G. A.

T h e W o r s t B e l i e v e d t o be Over Kay 14,1SS3, will be a day Ion? remembered " by men doing business on Wall street. New York. Since the fearful panic of 1818. consequent on the failure of Jay Cooke, financial circles hare not been so badly shaken as on this day. The net result of the day was the suspension of the Metropolitan bank, failure of six brokers' firms, depreciation of values to the extent of tens of millions, and an advance in money to 3 per cent, per diem. Of the bro- -kers, but two were large house*, those of Hatch & Foote and O. M. Bogart <fe Co., and 1 the failure of the Metropolitan bank has been ' but partial. As compared with the day of Jay Cnokedt Co's failure and Black Friday of 1869, this latest panic Is a rather tame affair; but It shook the street and its effects will oe felt for a long time. The failures of Grant is Ward and the Marine bank opened the eyes of the public to the real situation and led to investigations of accounts by bank officials which were fatal to many speculators. For several days the greatest caution has been observed by those handling large sums of money, and it has been known that anumber of firms, and even financial institutions, were in such a condition that they were unable to stand much more strain. ' When order had been obtained after business was opened on the morning in question. Messrs Nelson, Robinson & Co., announced their Inability to meet their contracts. This annoucement was immediately followed by the suspension of Goffe & Handle, O. M. Bogart &0o., J. C. Willfams and Hatch & Feote. The last named house is a large one. and alarm overtopped the excitement. Brokers were asking themselves where the thing was going to stop, when the announcement came that the Metropolitan bank at Broadway and Pine street with its $4,000,000 surplus, $8,000,000 deposits and $10,000,000 loans had suspended. This important event added greatly to the excitement and panic both in and out of the exchange. The failure of the brokers' firms was serious enough, but the suspension of the great bank, where a hundred brokers' accounts might have been kept seemed little short of complete disaster. No other New York bank except the Metropolitan was in any i straits so far as outsiders knew, but jusi before 3 o'clock the Atlantic State bank of Brooklyn, which 4iad Intimate connection with the Metropolitan bank, had to close Its doors, ft Is a small concern, and its failure WLS unknown to many people in New York until after the close bf the stock market. Most exaggerated reports were •circulated immediately alter the Metropolitan suspension. One was to the effect that Drex- < I, Morgan & Co., had a $2,000,000 account in the Metropolitan bank. This was promptlydenied by the firm. It was said that the only funds of the firm in the bank was a staall coupon account. The excitement in the exchange reached the highest point at this time, and prices again fell rapidly. There was no attack on any stock ana bears were the chief buyers, covering their contracts. Brokers refused to do business unless .they were well protected, and advised their customers to stay out of the market. There are sensational rumors affecting the solvency of several banks but Investigation proved them false except in the instance of the Metropolitan. The ore exchange caught the Infection and is very panicky. Trices dropped ten points. Secretary Folsrer says 4he break is due to reckless speculation by a few men. The situation is not inherently weak. He will do everything in his power to prevent stringency. He said: "There Is plenty of money in the country.7T~do not anticipate any extensive panic. The situation is not as weak as people suppose. I shall do everything in my power to restore confidence." So far as as the heavy failures affect the outside world, it is not thought anything serious will result. 'All over the country f;enerul confidence Is unshaken, and the belief n a speedy and amicable adjustment of affairs js general. -*. T h e F i n a n c i a l W h i r l w i n d . Business was opened on Wall Street on the morning of the 16th an hour earlier than usual. ' Tbe immense crowd present on the street told all too plainly tbe anxiety felt by all. Business opened, however, wlthamcr^ hopeful feeling. The Metropolitan bank resumed >*ym<>ntfif depmltorw, and confidence was '*£"$*'*' lib and uuattled throughout. ,A bellefthat tbe worst Is over is hourly growing. Ther* were not leas tlan 8,000 brokers on the floor when the exchange opened. Bales of air sorts of stocks went onwlthllghtningOike rapidity. Before the last half hoar of baalneea had ex- Wred values showed an improvement ranging from 1 to 8¾ per cent for all aetive stocks. About this time a startling rumor began to circulate and the confidence so apparent during the opening transactions began to wane and with it the price of stocks. Offering* became more frequent, while the dls- ?3ilt!on to buy had entirely petered out. hetrumors had been In circulation but a short time when they were followed by the announcement that the Newark savings bank had been closed on the order of Chancellor Runyan. Then came the announcement •y the chairman that he had received a notifl-j cation from the firm of H. C. Hardy & 8o»s they were unable to meet their obligations. Thftcausedgreatexcltement lor^^wirtte **d resulted in a pressure to sell which continued with little intermission until 11:30 -A. if. Shortly before noon prices showed decline to 8 Ser cent., the latter in Lake Shore. But as is hour for delivery passed without any further failures being announced the market strengthened and again closed with prices at or near tbe highest of the day, and in most cases, at an advance as compared with the closing prices of yesterday, ranging front I to t>% per cent.r led by the Central Pacific Lake Shore recovered 8 per cent, from the lowest point, and closed at a decline of 1 per cent, as compared with yesterday's closing. Specialties closed generally lower. The day's business closed with a better feeling than at any time since the commencement of the present trouble. Brokers generally expressed themselves as confident of a further improvement in values to-morrow. _ BUTLER BOOMED.

Baird of Nebraska nominated pay mi being restored, and affairs In a fair way to run , , ,. along smoothly, when the failure of Fish &, agreed to make^Pert Williams its lake port, in Hatch stirred things up again. Crowds ot messengers rushed through Broad street and Exchange place earring the news, and hundreds hurried to Nassau and Wall streets to the office of the firm, which is in a few feet of the spot where stood Jay Cooke & Co.'a office when the 1S73 panic came. Never since September, 1873, had there been such an exciting scene on that corner as was now witnessed. Men could hardly believe that the substantial firm of Fish & Hatch should have gone under.

Cox made a characteristic reply: "I know nothing on thesubject.—I Introduced the bill at the request of xoany good citizens of New York City, fir*ti because of wearisome argumentum ad mtserlcordlum; second, because Gen. Grant is pf'wUTbe our most heroic General of the civil war- I am not engaged as his chief champion, however, ,but I will vote for his bill." . It is believed that some day before final adjournment the Senate bill will be passed in the House on a motion to suspend the rules. MICHIGAN ON A BATTLE FIELD.

Everyone knew soon enough that tht firm had really failed and that nothing could I b i done for anybody. Even then many who could cot realize that their money ',as nrtjrlthln their reach lingered and were ti: My i ejected by clerks. It Is conceded that the ia are of Fish & Hatch is a most serious even and entirely changes the sit nation. The effect ot It Is difficult tQ conjeetu e, but the fact^hat U occurred at so late an bo ir was a cause congratulation. Mr. ' l a f i bad been president of the stock»-x ^ange only two day • before the failure. Th failure of Flah ' Hatch Is said to be due u • 'ortsmade to ai the sons, and the lmmediaie losuli of the fi nre on the stock exc.Vngc .as a decline several points. But little can be learned of condition of their business at present, Mr. Hatch declined to be Interviewed. Shortly after the failure the firm sent the followii ig notice to the associated press: To our Depositors and Other Creditors. It is with great, sorrow we are obliged to a nnounce to yeu our suspension, which" has be en brought about by a combination of circu instances. The long-continued decline '-. the market price of securilles, even the very b »t accompanied by a general weakening of o mdence in financial matters, together with he* ,vy drainage deposits, are the principal causes of our unfortunate position. We can only rt^uiept those having claims against us to extend io) ua 8uch consideration and indulgence as we nhav need and It may be in their power to grau:.| Yerv truly, 16 UK & HATCJI. The general opinion seemeu ./.' . ,nat/the failure of the firm was due in part to the J fact that It had been for years a heavj iuvestdr In first class railroad bonds, paying high prices for them, and inability to realize on this class of securities without heavy loes was one ekaient of weakness. Several country banks had balances at Flak & Hatch's. Some of thcee^ British Canadian lumber Liabilities about $1,000,- t?*r~*-r, it was understood, had made heavy drafts on the firm partly on account of timidity at the financial prospect and partly to satisfy demands made on them by their depositors. The attempts of Fisk & Hatch to raise cash on their securities were made futile by the pecnHar - condition of the money market. The decline %ff A the price of government bonds was a aerlotti '.*"• aatter to them. T h e R e c l a m i n g of t h e E n d .

During the course of his remarks the chairman referred to tho small number present, but declared there were more present than when the Declaration of Independence / w a s signed. [Applause.] T h e cause of tho smalluess of the convention ...was that m a n y of its members w e r e too poor t o pay their fare, and because the monopolistic railroads refuse to '•give—them the same rates that would bo given delegates to other conventions. Tho speaker proceeded to say all the platform he wanted was: ^>We oppose all monopolies; we believe*all men* created free and equal, and wo believe in Gene r a l B e n i a m i n F. Butler." [Applause.] .Committees on credentials, permanent organization aad resolutions were appointed of one from e a c h state. T h e call of states showed 16 states represented.

The committee on permanent organization reported for president J o h n F. Henry of N e w York and m a k i n g tern oorary secretaries permanent. "Pend^ ing a report from the committee on platform the convention adjourned till 7:80. The'conventidh re-assembJed^at 7:80. Chas^ Litchman of Massachusetts presented the majority report from the committee on platform. It begins as follows: ' - The anti-monopoly organisation of the United States in convention assem» bled declares: 1. That labor and capital should bo allies, not enemies; and w e demand justice for both by protecting t h o rights of all as against the privilefpes of the few. 2. That corporations are creatures of the law and should be controlled by law. 3. That we propose the greatest reduction practicable in public expenses. This platfoim proceeds to call for the enactment and vigorous execution of just J a w s and equality in rights, bur dens, privileges and powers, asserts that it is the duty of the government to at once regulate commerce a m o n g states including transportation of money and transmission cT iht511igence7~hold3 that bureaus of statistics must be establ i s h e d , both state and national; the national eight hour law must be honestly enforced, and importation of foreign labor under contract bo made illegal; approves the passage of tho Raagan inter-state commerce bill; demands p a y m e n t of the bonded debt as it falls due; the election o r U m t e d S t a t e s senak~ tors by direct vote; a graduated income tax, a tariff which is a tax upon the people that shall be so levied as to boar as Rightly as possible u p o n necessaries; denounces the present tariff aa being largely in the interest of monopoly, and demands that it be speedily and radical ly reformed in the interest of labor instead of capital; that no further grants of public lands be "made"to corporatv • i; all land grants should be forfeited when the terms u p o n which* the grants were made are not stricly complied with. Tbe platform finally asserts that American legislation thus far h a s discriminated against agriculture, w h i c h has in the meantime borne the brunt of taxation and .appeals to the farmers of the country to join in an anti-monopoly crusade. J. F.'Crews sub'milte^ffie~mino'rity~ report, which w a s the piatform adopted at the anti-niohopoly convention of J u l y 4, 1883. , It particularly demanded the abolishment of the national banking system. T h e adoption of .the minority report was moved, and to it was tacked an amendment urging t h e - establishm e n t of female suffrage. Tne question cf tbe adoption of tho majority report developed considerable acrimonious debate." Chairman Henry advocated the majority report as being one upon which Gen. Butler could accept the nomination for the presidency. This sentiment was endorsed by Mrs. Todd of California, who felt with Butler in the o v air female suffrage would have Ladop ' rrrrfne the informal ThurmaTT Allen G. Thurman.

THE WIFE'S SECRET. CHAPTER IV. Captain Ruthven and his wife lingered by the sea tintil the autumn was over"; arid then be b r o u g h t h i s wife to \ 'London, where lie intended to reside during the rest of his stay in England, which would not-exceed a year and a half atTTTe most. They had a pleasant little home in one of the streets leading to R e g e n t s Park. How happy thry were! The lirst trouble that canie to them was the death of Miss liroiikc. It was sudden at last. Her maid, '.'<>ing one morning to call her. found her dead, with a smile on her lips and a lo'.»k on her face stirli as it had not worn tor many years. She had left the whole of her" little fortune, amounting to two hundred a year, to May. ' , "If it were not ior you. Charley, the young wife, "l should he a Ion -the. world. Anut Hessie. w a s tlui _relative I had living." "1 always wonder." remarked the Captain, "at.niy own :z<,od fortiiu • in winning you. It seems so strange to inc that every one did not want toyman., you." • ' "People did not see me with your eyes,", was the laughing reply. " I was your first lover ami your lirst love?" he continued, looking at her sweet face. "My lirst. last, and only love.Charley."' " T h a t is some comfort. I should not like-to-liavc married a woman who had ever loved another man. I should always fancy she was 'thinking of him and wishing she had married him instead of me." "Charley," said May quietly, "you have made one mistake. You said you were not jealous.' Now I believe you to he one of the most jealous men that ever lived. Reware of the feeling." " I begin to think so too. When I said -£ was not jealous, I said also that I had never been tried. Remember, May, I have never loved or been loved before; and I know t h a t my wife will never •eem changed to me. Are you not happy?" "Happy!" she repeated, looking up with eyes that told how much she loved him. " I never dreamed even of being as happy as I am now." " T h e n have you some secret you are hiding from me? Is there something in your life that I do not know of—something, pain or pleasure, in which I have no share?" A crimson blush covered the i'acd that she turned from him, and her lips trembled while she smiled. "You are growing jealous, Charley," she said lightly; "and you know you promised that should never be." . H e let this equivocal answer pa he blamed himself afterwards that he did so. H e felt vexed and disappointed. H e was too proud to pursue the subject, and it ended there. B u t three minutes afterwards May laid her beautiful hand upon bis shoulder and whispered to him that he was foolish to be angry, for she loved him. so dearly; and then he felt happy again. Three or four days after that, Mrs. Ruthven told her husband one morning that she was going out shopping. " W r i t e one or two notes, for me before vou go," he said; for the Captain had fallen into the idle way, so natural to some husbands, of never writing a letter himself, but always asking his wife to do it for him. May consented, with a smile at his laziness. He watched her as she unlocked her desk and sat down to answer his letter. His eyes dwelt fondly on the sweet earnest face, the graceful* figure, and the little white hands. He thought |4iow 'beairtiftti-Hrm- wtt*-,~„4iow-tlea-rty—and truly he loyed her, how different his life was" now that he called May lirooke wife! 4&>_M4ukU-whe-u he saw how-care fuUy she locked-Ttrrthe little desk. "Then she kissed him and said "Good morning." She was going to buy some of the things she thought it time to prepare for taking to India. For many long sad weeks Captain Ruthven remembered his wife's faoe as he saw it when she gaily bade hira "Good niorning." . "' He continued to read his newspaper' for srirae time after she had gone, and then he remembered another and most important letter that he had forgotten to mention to his wife. Her desk was locked; bul he produced his own bunch of keys, and found that one of them opened it. He took some laper, wrote his letter, and directed it. jut could not find any wax with which ;o seal the envelope. * Another of Caplain Ruthyen's peculiarities was his want of faith in adhesive envelopes-- every letter he wrote must be sealed; but in this case it seamed as though the wax were not forthcoming. He turned over one paper after anot tier hurriedly, for he could not bear delay, and in so doing his eyes fell upon a half-sheet of paper covered with his wife's handwritmg. the beautiful clear running hand that he had so often, admired. I t was but the half-sheet of what seemed to have been a letter torn hastily in two. At lirst he put it aside w i t h the* rest; as though actuated by some sudden impulse, he turned to it again and read it through. As he did so. his face irrew livid and terrible to behold, his lips white and rigid, and a flame of .wrath gleamed in his eyes. Slowly he re.til it over and over again, as though to master the full sense of it; then,as"if seized with a sudd e n h o p e , he compared the handwriting with that upon the envelope which his wife had only a short tiimj before addressed. They were the si.me—no man in his senses could doubt it. The words were not pleasantvnes f ;• a husband to "Yes. But, Charley " " H u s h , " he said sternly—"not a wordl Ilave you any explanation to give t h a t could lessen the wrong you have done?" " N o n e , " she answered, "save that I could noi help it. .Some day I meant to have told you all." She did not speak angrily, but leather as one who quietly despaired. —^And have you neither, sorrow nor shame? Can you stand there and look at me and not feel that it would have been better for you to have died than have deceived m« as you have done?" " C h a r l e y / ' sin "began, trembling, as she spoke; but he interrupted her again. " I will not have you call me sol" lie cried. " Y o u are no wife of mine! Only answer me one question. How long has this been going on? Speak truly." "Before I ever knew you," she sobbed —A'more than three years." 41 You began young," he said, with a bitter sneer. All the worst passions of . h i s nature were aroused. He was mad [ with wounded love and jealousy. "Now listen to me. You thought you were doing a clever thing when you deceived me. Y o u laughed in your sleeve to think what a fool and a dupe I was. From this moment you are nothing to me. T h e May Brooke I loved and wooed last summer is dead—or rather she has never lived at all. There can be no half measures for me. You have deceived me; From the very beginning you have wronged me wfth the cruellest wrong, and I will never look upon your face again. This hour I will leave you. You snail never deceive me again." "But, Charley." she cried franticallv. *-4lI meant t o t e l l you, darling; and"I thought you would forgive me then!" "Men do not forgive that kind of thing," he said scornfully. "There need \ be no scene. If I remained- with you, I must either love you or hate you. For my own sake I will not love you, for vours I will not hate—so I leave you. You have a comfortable home here; remain in it; you, will not miss me. I can live the rest of my life alone. A t least, if I have been a fool, there was some excuse for m y folly." "Charley,"* she" cried, "you cannot leave me so! I wi 11 foilow you. You must forgive me! Indeed—indeed I will never do it again!" " I should think not." he said, with a short bitter laugh. "One such affair is quite enough for a lifetime. Don't repeat the mistake. Don't come near me! I will not forgive you—I cannot'" So he passed out, and left her kneeling, her nands outstretched to hint, her white imploring face covered with tears —out, he did not rare whither—he was f mad with- t h e - p a in -of his grief—any* where where he might forget—where his past life might fail from him and be forgotten—any w i.ere where lie mig.it forget the beautiful false lan't-f 'the woman who had deceived him. The noise of tit" <it> surged in his ears: people stood to gaze ;-.tter him, and wondered at his wild and desperate looks. -He had no plan f-«r the future. The sky above his head sc'ined of blood red, the people who passed him by like tmreal pfiantmris; he walked on.-loH-gi+i-gonly to escape. It was, the whistle of a locomotive him to a standstill. •" to Eu'ston .;-• of escape, lought—away BOOK! OF T H E OLD TESTAMENT.

He was a strong man; but his very heart sickened as he thought of her falsity, her deceit, the foul wrong she had done him, inmarrving without love.

" N o " said May simply, *'I never shall.1* So the .first six months of their married life passed away; and tlu n Captain 4 R u t h v e n began to perceive a change in —his wife. I t was so gradual that he could hardly tell how it first began. She seemed quieter than-ever; s h e ^ a d lost in some measure the frank open manner t h a t had charmed him. Once or twice he saw her with a pained preoccupied look on her face, as though sne had some care or trouble of which ne knew nothing. Ever since they had been in London he had spent some hours daily away from home. H e had business to attend to commissions to execute for friends. Several times, when he returned earlier than he had intended, she seemed fluttered and agitated; her face flushed, and she seemed more frightened t h a n pleased a t seeing him. Captain Ruthven was a jealous man, a n d he thought much of these little things. One morning, after a wakeful and restless night, he made up his mind to speak to his wife. She looked u p at htm with a bright smile as he entered the breakfast-room. She was arranging some spring flowers in the vases* and she looked so bright and beairtiful, so happy and loving, as she smilea at him, t h a t the,Captain's suspicions* vanished into thin air. Still he had resolved to speak t o ' h e r , and, both in small and \ , great things, he was a man who rigidly adhered to his resolutions. fdl<rmgtric littler flgr ure tenderly in hw arms, "you have not seemed like yourself lately. I cannot tell how yon have changed, but^yOu her first, so sweet, so mudest. so true; he thought of the golden hour under the lime-trees, when lie had askedJher to be his wife, and she had promised to be true to him until death. H e could not realise the fact that this innocent child had played htm false, had deceived him with the most cruel deceit. Her looks, her words, her love, had all been lies; for she had written to this other one that she had married without love. All the fairy fabric of his happiness fell to the ground, all the hope and the love of his life died in that hour. T h e only woman he had ever loved was false, and had never cared far him. H e groaned aloud as these thoughts ran through his mind. H e would far rather have seen her dead at his feet than have to live and scorn her. She was dead to him. Never should she deceive him with her sweet words and smiles again. Better the loneliness that shadowed his life than this false love. H e could go back to India, and l i v e - alone. Then his self-control gave way,- and he laid his head down upon the table and wept like a child. H e did not know how time passed, he never heard the hours chime. H e was aroused by a light touch upon his shoulder, • and a sweet voice said gaily— "Charley, you are asleep! You lazv boy; to waste this bright morning so!" l i e raised his head, and his wife's eyes fell upon his white haggard face and upon the sheet of paper that lay near him.

THE HAUNTED CORRIDOR BOW BELLS. " I don't believe a word of i t ! " said Aunt Rebecca. *. The wine-like glow of sunset yet illuminated the great bay window; but the rest of tho apartment was already enshrowded in the gray shadows of twilight, in whose misty indistinctness the hu^e chairs of carved o&k looked like gigantic monsters from some foreign shore. - F r o m the walls frowned down dark old family portraits, and the crimson hansdngs above the arched doors w a r e d restlessly pack and forth in t h e " draughts of wind that swept through the vast corridor. " I don't^belleve a w e d of i t ! " repeated Aunt Rebecca, with more emphasis than before " A ghost story, indeed !" " T e l l , me aWut it.

" I t is not much of a story," said Voilet, flushing up to her "very eyelash. es at the sound of her nwa soft voice,'' 'only years ago, long before ray great grandpapa built this house, the sfce was all one unbroken wood, and there was a tradition that a beautiful girl WAS- murdered by her lover. Her grave, they said was beneath the foundations of the house; but I scarcely credit this paTt of the legend." "Of a course not," interrupted Miss Rebecca, with a toss of her false curls. " I have np patience with the relics of old superstition." " W h a t are you looking for, Aunt? Have you dropped anything? Shall I call for Harris to bring a candle?" asked Voilet, a moment afterward, coming t o - h e r a u n t ' s side, "Nothing, nothing," said Miss Rebecca, with a little embarrassment in her voice. "Come—don't stay hero any longer in the biting cold, unless you both wast-a—week's medicine and doctor's: visits." " I t is not cold, Aunt Rebecca," pleaded Voilet, "and the starlight is so beautiful on the stone pavement.

I t reminded one of a lovely painting executed with brushes, dipped in liquid pearl, and shaded with pencils of glimmering silver! At least so they seemed to Charles Hazelwood as he stood in the deep recess of the gi^antio hay-window, nearly hidden by the curtains, the faded splendor of whose tarnished embroidery' carried the mind unconsciously a century backward on the s t r e a m of time. But then Charles Hazelwood was in lo?e. T h e tall, eld fashioned clock in the as striking 12, and the colony of crickets under the w a r m hearthstone were falling into a dreamy, sleepy sort of chirp+ as if _their small l u n g s were fairly wearied out, when A u n t Rebecca emerged from her door, treading on tiptoe and carrying a dim light in her hand. '~L-'' Now, Aunt Rebecca, in nodding falsa curls, laee coiffure and eighteen year old style of dress, was a very different sort of personage from Aunt Rebecca, with h e r head tied up in a handerchief, her false curls laid aside, and a long white dressing robe enveloping her lank figure; and the latter was by no means Probably seme suoh consclonsn a, swept across the good spinister'a brane for she shuffled, with accelerated rapidity past the solemn eyes of t h e grave old family portraits on the wail. " I am sure I dropped them somewhere h e r e , " she murmured, p a a s i n g in front of the bay window. " H o w shocking! There goes my candle out! But I believe I can tiud them, however, the starlight is so bright. Mercy upon us! what is tfaat? T h e ghost! the ghost!" And Aunt Rebecca fled shrieking down the corridor, her bands over her eyes, before which was imprinted the appalling vision of a tall figure sweeping past, all in white with a crimson stain at its pallid throat! T h e house was aroused into instantaneous commotion, lights flashed into brightness a t the various doors, and a n eager circle of inquirers surrounded A ant Rebecca, who evinced strong symptoms of an intention to go into hysterics. " I t glided past m e like a gnsts of windVr she shrieked, replying at hazard to the questions rained down upon her—"all in white_with that dreadful mark of blood upon its throat! It's a warning—-I know it's a warning that I h a v e n ' t long to live!. Oh, w h a t shall 1 do—what shall I d o ? " ^ " B u t I don't understand what yon were doing out in the Ghost's Corridor at this time of night," interrupted Colonel tfrme, staring at his sister as if not quite certain whether this were a n actual occurrence in real life or merely a fragmentary part of his last dream. -• "WeU, if^yoTan^st^nowT^sTud: Miss Rebecca; with a little hysteric sob, " I dropped my false teeth there, just at dusk, and I didn't like to look for them there with Violet and Captain Hazlewood standing by,, and so—and s o " — "Oho! t h a r s it, e h ? " said Colonel Orme, laughing. " U p o n my word, Sister 3ecky, you are rather over-particular for a woman fifty years o l d . " "Only forty-nine, J a m e s , " iriterrupt- Miss Rebecca, wtih a shrill accent of indignation, " B u t the g h o s t ? " inquired y o u n g Hazelwood, who had just arrived o » the scene of action, with rather a flushed brow and embarrassed air. Upon which Aant Rebecca gave way to the combined influences of h e r brother's unkind remark and the fright of ghost seeing, and fairly fainted without further notice. According to t h e usual custom of womankind on such occasions, Colonel Orme and all t h e other gentlemen were hustled out into the hall, while the victim of the femaleofficials was deluged with eau de cologne, stifled with burnt feathers, a n d vigorously treated with hot flannel. " S h e V c o m i n g to, poor dear creat u r e ! " was the final verdict hurled at [CtohraerOrme through—a crack in t h e door. "Well, I ' m glad of it, I'm s u r e , " said the Colonel dolorously, rub bing his hands, "for it's cold out hero in the hall. Why, hilloa! is this vou, m y little Violet? What's the matter? You haven't seen a ghost, I h o p e ? " "No, p a p a , " faltered Violet, " b u t "Suppose we three adjourn into the Library, Colonel Orme, and I will undertake the task of explanation," i n - terposed Charles Hazelwood, while Violet's cheeks grew like flame. ' " W e l l , may L venture to inquire what all this m e a n s ? " interrogated the bewildered Colonel when the library door was safely closed. y / " " I t means, sir," said Charles laughing, yet a little puzzled how t o p r o - ceed, " t h a t Violet, your daughter, and I were just looking out a t t h e stars, i n the embrasure of the g r e a t hall windowv when W C J L ^ W some o n e approaching with a lijjUt.

"What is inside the bones?" stolidly came from the corner where the ^quiet boy was sitting. Mr. Dash never remembered what answer he gave, but the question and his despair fixed themselves in his memory. Thirty-five years afterward he visited Washington, and entered the room where the Justices of the Supreme Court were sitting. The Chief-Justice, the most-hearned jurist of his day, was a man like St. raul, whose bojjily presence was contemptible. The stranger regarded him at first with awe, then with amazement.

U P TO May 1 the number of lives oat this year by accidents which cost a loss of 20 lives and more, wad 1,908. This year so far is more calamitous, although last year w a s more remarkable for the actual number of the disasters. T H E Indian population of the United States now numbers 268,000, exclusive of the Indians of Alaska, who number about 30,000. About 76,000 of them are in the I n d i a n territory, '.where they are divided into five civilized nations— theCherokees,Creeks,f ,Choctaws,Chickasaws and Seminoles.

O N E night last week, when an Eastbound train from Chicago was going at full speed, soon after leaving the city, a woman, apparently insane, deliberately took oft' her outside garments and dresy, and as deliberately walked to the door, making a- leap to etcrni before anyone fully realized her purpose. It was an inten3eJy dark night and very stormy, and though exertion was made to tind her body it was not recovero.l. Who she was< or what her name could not be ascertained, but in her dress pocket was a ticket for Germany.. T H E board of management of the world's industrial exposition have elected Dr. G. B.

The American exchange in EuropeT-limited, was appointed to act as agents of the exposition in Europe, Asia, Afriea, Australia; South America and West India islands, for^ttre distribution of information and the forwarding of exhibits. GEV. B. F. B U T L E R addressed the Senate committee on educatiou and labor the other day, on the general features of tbe labor problem. He asserted that the present difficulties were due to over production. We had, ho said, a year's crop of grain on hand, and nearly a year's crop of cotton was now stored in warehouses. After referring to other commodities which were in stock in excess of current requirements, he said, "Why. we have 20 years' supply' of whisky on hand.'' He was facetiously reminded that this was a delicate subject and admitted that for one who was a presidential candidate it was necessary to be cautious. Asylum for Weak-imindcd Cbildreu. From the Kalamazoo Telegraph. The negotiations which have for some time been in progress for the purchase of the property belonging to the estate of the late Harrison A. .Smith, on Paw Paw avenue, just west of the village, have been finally closed, and this epIemlM demense of 42 acres with its handsome buildings and grounds, etc., were transferred to Dr. T. C. Wilbur. The doctor with his family and household goods have arrived and are iu possession. Some 26 years aso Dr. H. B. Wilbur established at Barre, Mass., the first school for feeble-minded children, which from the start proved to be a success. Since that tine there has been some 15 other schools iu different parte of the northern state*. Dr. Wilbur's name has become an honored one among the workers in the field of benevolence. Dr. T C. Wilbur, who has now come among us, Is his brother, and for many years co-operated with Dr. H,B. Wilbur Ctrain the latter's death) since which time ho has established and conducted schools of this kind successfully, and is i horou«hly familiar with the system, which ha a received ' the approval of the best minds in the country interested iu this class of wo>k. . Thl«6choolls established NT the care and education of feeble-mind id youth of both sexes. The institution 1s strictly .private, and not » state or charitable Institution In tbe strict sense of tbo word, though Its object Is benevolent. It is for the education of backward or eccentric children, adapted for such as are precluded from ordinary schools by reason of defective nervous organizations. Teachers are to be provided who have been thoroughly trained in the work, and numerous as the needa of the pupils, who tfre formed in classes varying in - number -ffom^sne to eight. A limited number of custodial classes will be received, such as those who are unfitted to engage in business life or mingle in society because of mental infirmities. Special attention will be given to a careful classification of pupils, so that the different grades and classee will be separated at all times. In the public Institutions usually f rbm 10 to 40 are compelled to be associated in the dormitories and all are mingled in the diningrooms and other general assembly rooms. This will be cntifely prevented in-4he private establishment. A very careful discrimination will be made as to these associations and pupils will be carefully graded and classified In every department. The sexes wfil be kept entirely apart from each other. The department for girls will be 'under the direct supervision of Airs. Wilbur and two independent cottages will be used for the boys. The institution will be ready about the middle of this month. There are already applications for seven boys. At present the number admitted must be limited nnt-il additional cottages can be built. Dr. Wilbur calls his place the "asylum for the feeble-minded." A more beautiful and salubrious position it would be hard to find. The doctor is greatly pleased with the location and says it cannot be surpassed. The census of the United States for 1880 shows there were in this state feeble ramrietl persons, young and old, 2,181, a total in the five states of Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri and Michigan, of 16,233. Uf these there were In the institutions for the feeble-minded in all these five states but 355 inmat'.s leaving 15,878 unprovided for by any specialeare, otherv than that received at their oyvu homes, in insane hospitals, in county poorbouses or jails. Of this number 25 were confined in jails, 207 In insane hospitals and other institutions, and 1,538 in county poor-houses, leaving 14,109 at their homes, without any 'speclaloare (;r treatment to ameliorate their condition. So that it will be seen there b a great field for an Institution In Kalamazoo. It is the purpose of Dr. Wilbur to make this asylum or home as attractive and delightful as possible. Cottages and facilities being provided as the number of pupils - increase, as they certainly will increase rapidly. At Lincoln, 111., where Dr. Wilbur was superintendent, there were 300 pupils in attendance, and the results are said to be In the highest degree of excellence. Tbe buildings, croupds and improvements of this place originally coftt-f4dj000. Dr. Wilbur will eipend-K considerable sura in adding improvements and facilities. » T V f E 1TKMS.

The committee on resolutions reported as follows: "We, tho union prohibition party of the state of Michigan, in convention assembled for the purpose of selecting delegates to the national convention of the prohibition homo protection party, to be held in Pittsburg, July 23 next, do reaffirm ouv unbounded confidence in the ability of the state and nation to absolutely repress the traffic in intoxicating beverages, by law enacted and enforced by the proper and political agencies That we recognize in the union prohibition party of the state of Michigan and the national prohibition home protection party of the United States, the only competeiit political agency for this work as at present existing and are in most hearty-sympathy with thy declaration of principles adopted *it the foundation of the' union party at Jackson in January last.

After arranging for the holding of the next state convention at Lansing on vVednesday, August 27, it was announced t h a t a collection would be taken up. This caused a general thinning out. The committee was $600 in debt, but the tide for the street could not be stayed. All were on their feet, and tbe chair expressed a f«ar that they were getting nervous. The re'was another meeting announced for the evening, whea_short speeches would be in order, but Up to the time that ri> majority left on the late train, only about $400 of the $1,000 asked for had bee raised. Shortly before 7 o'clock when the convention was practically absent, tho tellers announced the following delegates at large elected: Rev. J o h n RUSSMII, Detroit; D. P.

Health Monthly. Weston, tho noted lon£-dista«wi> prefleBtrlan, has completed his 8clM«i» posed task of wal knag fifty miles a day for one hundred days, or live thousand miles in all. Uo has done this to dem- •^onstrate hia induranco and ability to -*t»stain protracted exhaustion without the use of alcoholic liquors, and on his way baa boon delivering ttmiparaaca lectures; but ho lias partaken of liberal potatioss of tea, for tho purpose of showing thai tea is a more commendable and sUstaiDing stimulant that alcohol. We do not tbink much good can be accomplished by such an exhibition or such testimony to.lua, for iu tho long run a dependence upon tea will bring jgements of the nervous -•veil as dependence upon The immediate effects a r e BPsing. The-very fact that orfTOoM wot become drunk upon tea istfa«»more reason why he may become addicted to its excessive use and wreck his nervous system thereby. A lady physioian of our acquaintance, who has, uVeourse, mainly to do with diseases of womon, expresses the opinion that tea does as much harm to women and child- M « as liquors do to men. Tkis at S U M M U U S a pretty hrg^d statement of Opinion and eno ' w ^ p i could not be •Sietontiated, but when we consider <fc» ultimate effects it seems to us that i m p r o b a b l y true. Children brought tmxm a bowl ef tea a n d a oit of brea,d, as many of them are in tho poor districts of this city, are, by the time they Teach puberty, well prepared to require a stronger stimulant, ami J-o fall into drunkenness. The daily papers not infrequently report children in their teens arrested for drunkennosg, and we have not the least doubt that, the way is prepared for these sheeting sights, by wrong bringing up as well a s by unfortunate hereditary propensities. There ^are-working v/omon in this citv who live so much upon tea that They can fiirly be called tea-totalers. They keep a pot of it handy on the stove all day, and t r e a t the callers to a cup of tea ss often as tho husbands ask their friends at the common grogery what thev"will take. Women who are made fretful, nervous,"irritable, dyspeptic, constipated and generally dried up by the constant use of tea, are not in much better condition to live useful and sociablty agreeable lives than are men who ure d e b a u c h e d . a n d demoralized by tipplinsr. Neither- are such women any better' fitted for parenthood tFfch are such men. If Weston hstd made an exhibition of hLV power to complete a task requiring ijreat enrsrgy and endurance, living oniy on plain, nutritious and unstimulatlng foodi and liquids, as wo believe h e could do, he would have accomplished something worth the doing, and set a worthy example for the rest of the head-werking world. A S o c i a l L e s s o n . Young Spoonogle never knows when to leave when he calls on a young lady; ho likes the sound of his own voice so well that he goes on and on, while the poor girl grows light-headed with the tax on her strength, and wishes tho mantelpiece of Elijah would fall on the tireionie ce.Uer. There is a young lady on Lafayette avenue who made up her mind to give Spoonogle a lesson. So, on a Sunday ni^ht, w'jen ho called, she wits as tordial as possible up to 11 o'clock. Then, after having a four-volume history ef Spoonog'.e's life, with an extended account of his iniluence in politics and business, she began" to get dizzy ar.d have a ringing in her ears. At that moment typ? young brother rushed into the room and said hurriedly: ' ' ? a wants the morning papers, sis!1' "Look iu the vestibule. Willie," sho answered, gently,—"I think -I—heard tho boy leaving them some hours ago. Spoonogle never took the hint, but drawled on about the roller skating rink, and what a figure he cut onskates. T h e next interruption wfcs from the h e a l of the house, who entered briskly, rubbing his hands. "* "Good morning, good ruorhing," ho said, cheerilv. " U a , Spoonogle, you're out early. Well, 'early bird, etc. I t ' s going to bo a fine day, from present appearances/' " * Spoonogle was dazed but he conoluded old =~Wft man had been drinking, and sat ) back with a "come one, come all, this rock shall fly from its firm base as soon as yours truly11 air that was decided and convincing. A half h o u r passed, a n d the mother "hurried in. "Dear me, I ' m l a t e . " sho said, as she entered. " I studied the coffee an hour ..aso_and knew breakfast was waiting, b u t - o h ! Good morning, Mr. Spoonogle!" 'Then tho sweet youth took tho hint and drawing himself together he got our, into tho hall and opened the front door just as the hired girl r u n g a boll and the small boy yelled'"Breakfast" over the banisters. \ Those who can command themselves command others.

Visitors who, from curiosity or busi ness, have called at the White House, must have beon impressed by the courteous yet sympathetic manner with which they were received and escorted through Lhii mansion, liifl- gentlemen, _wJio^e_ duty it is to receive all persons coming to the White House a r e Colonel E. S. Denamoro, Mr, J o h n T. Rickard and Mr. T. F. Pendel, and they have occupied their presont positions through the various administrations since a n d even during the war. Mr. Pendel was President frincoln's body guard; saw him t o his carriage the fatal night on which he visited Ford's theatre, and he now has in possession the blood-stained coat which Mr. Lincoln wore on that memorable occasion. There is not a public man in America t o d a y who does n o t know, and who is not known by, these gentlemen, and tho reminiscences of public and social life which they can recount would fill a congressional volume, During the weary yet:exciting years of war; through the iriore ; peaceful times of Grant's udministration; while Hayes held the* reins of government, and when Garfield w a s snot, it was these men who stood in the executive mansion, welcoming the advent of each now administration, bowing at its departure, and receiving both martyrs through its portals. During that long, hot and never to be forgotten summer when President Garfield lay between "two worlds," the nation became aware of the deadly malarial influence which hung about the White House. But all through that period these three m e n never deserted their posts for a single day, although each one was suffering intensely. I n conversation with the writer, Colonel Densmore said: " I t is impossible to describe tho tortures 1 have undergone-. T o be compelled to smile and treat the thousands of visitors who como here daily with courtesy when one i* in tho greatest agony requires a tremendous effort. All that summer I h a d terrible headaches, heart-burn a n d a stifling sensation that sometimes took away my breath. My appetite was uncertain and 1 felt severe pains in the small of my back. I was u^der t h e . doctor's care with strict instructions n o t to go out of tho house but 1 remained on duty nevertheless. You would be surprised to know the amount of quinine I took; on some days it was as much as sixteen grains.11 "And was Mr. Rickard fcbadlv off, too?" " I should think ho was. Why, t i a e and again we have pickedThlm up u.nd laid him on the mantel here in the vestibule, he was so used u p . ' 1 "Yes,'1 exclaimed Mr. Rickard, " I was so^weak I could not rise after lying down without help, and could only walk with the aid of two<-cane3, and then in a stooping position. Oh wo have been in a pretty bad condition here, all of us.1 ' "And yet you are all the embodiment of h e a l t h / ' said the writer, as he looked at tho three bright and vigorous men before him. "Oh, y e s , " said Mr. Rickard, " w e have not known what sickness was for more than a year." "Have you some secret way of overcoming malaria and its attendant horr o r s ? " " I think we have a most certain w a y , " replied Colonel Densmore, " b u t it is no secret You see, about two years ago my wife began to grow blind and I was "alarmed at her condition. She finally became so she could not tell whether a person were -white or black at a distance of ton feet. One of her lady frionds advised her to try a certain treatraent that h a d done wonders for her,-and to make a long story short, she did so and was completloy c u r e d / T h i s induced me to try the same -means for my own restoration and as Soon as I found it was doing me good I recommended it to my associates and we h a r e all been cured right hero in the stronghold of malaria and kept in perfect health ever since by means of Warner's Safe Cure.

The Toronto Globe credits many young Canadian women with the good sense of no longer regarding domestic service as menial, as women generally soom to believe, a n d prefer the drudgery of the kitchen to tho drudgery of the factory.

Admission only 10 cents for adults, and 5 cents for children. We have often had occasion to allude to the advantage farmers derive from improving the blood of their stock, and have asserted that it costs no more to feed and care fcr a fine blooded animal than it does a very ordinary one. A brief visit, the other day, to the farm of John Harris, one mile south of Pinckney, furnished us new proof of the assertion thatit-pays to raise good stock. Mr. Harris has a farm of 320 acres well adapted to stock growing. A few years ago he made bred rains, Wrinkle and Bismark, Jr., would compare favorably with any shown in the State, as do also some of the flock of ewes from the stock of Hon. Wm. Ball, so well known throughout Michigan. While .we have not time or space to mention all the really meritorious animals on the fa^m we must not forget to say that M r. Harris has some valuable horse. flesh. The young mare Belle Boyd— half sister to the famous trotting stallion Jerome Eddy, was sired by Napoleon, dam Nellie Watson by Green Mountain, j r . , (grand dam bv Long Island and he by Cassins M. Clayj. Belle Bovd is a noble bay, seven years old, and the owner has refused ij>600 for her. From her he has for • sale a fine stallion colt sired by Pasacas.. Farmers who are interested in stock breeding or any who like to see fine stock will be repaid for a brief visit to Mr-Harris' premises, where they will find the proprietor ever ready to show them the stuck in which he feels a just pride. Tompkins & Ismon shipped two car loads of wheat from Hamburg village yesterday. The first was furnished by John Ryan and the second by Stephen Galloway, of Hamburg Township. This is the first wheat shipped by the Grand Trunk from Hamburg. Tompkins & Ismon will continue buying th\re.

He says that not only does his , blooded stock pay better when sold I but that the well bred animal is ac-1 tually easier to keep than the poorly ' bred one. As an illustration of this he pointed out a noble short horn cow which had been fed through the winter on the poorest hay on the premises, and without any grain. The animal was actually fat—would make better beef than half that purchased..by the butchers this season. This cow, a beautiful speckled roan, and her sister, a handsome red animal, were sired b y " Duke Balder, are a couple of as tine short horns a& we have seen^in Michi gan.

The deceased had long been a resident of Flaquemine, La., but at the breaking out of the rebellion left for Europe, where, he has since remained, making occasional visits home. Highly educated, possessed- of rare talents as a linguist, he was able to avail himself of the privileges offered by the old world to the student or antiquarian. Spending the summer usually by the sea side in England, and the remainder of the year as long as his health admitted in making excursions to Germany, Switzerland, Holland;and many are the beautiful pictures sketched by his ready pen.

The large and valuable collections made by him . being presented to his relatives and different institutions ©£- learning. The University at Ann Arbor is enriched by nearly two thousand coins and medals of real value, some dating back two thousand years before the Christian era. Professor of Numismatics and Archeology, he'wasenabled to make selections of great merit. A member of the^ Presbyterian church from boyhood, an earnest devoted Christian, his life was a glorious success, and when in Florence, beautiful city of flowers, '"death, the crown of life", came to him, it found him ready. A friend present, writing of the sad event says:"the day was one of those perfect Italian springdays when every thing breathed peace as we deposited • the riower-lade,n cotfin in a lovely part of the Presbyterian cemetery." T h e sisters and brother at the old homestead, to whom through all. the years otabsence he has turned for love and sympathy, will mfss him sadly.

Before the secretary concluded to call the last tea million three's he wag seriously considering the propriety of purchasing four per cents In open market, but fear of criticism and the fact that the market for these securities stiffened considerably made , him adopt the usual plan of getting rid of the . surplus. Even now with two calls maturing there is a surplus of about $g,O0u,0C0 above the reserve kept on hand of one hundred And thirty-eight millions.

Williamson, castor of the Fint Baptist Church of ChUllcoth'e, Livingston Co., Mo,, committed suicide at "that place a few nights ago. Mr. Williamson located In Mober- Jv, Mo., a little over two years ago, where he was a great favorite. Less than a year ago he was transferred to Chillicothe. The other evening three deacons of the church of which he -was pastor called upon him, and alter a few preliminary remarks told him they had heard he had a wife and family In the East. The pastor made no attempt to deny the charge, but asked for time to think the—matter over. He said he had made an unfortunate marriage and that his wife had deserted him, but before marrying again he had heard that she was dead. He was informed that news had •been received to the effect that she was living In New York state, and that the probabilities were^that the grand jury~ of Livingston county would indict hlm_ior bigamy. He begged if or time, saying he could maKe;thlngs straight. The deacons retired, and Mr. Williams went out for a walk. Not returning, search was made for him and he was found dead with a vial labeled prusslc aiid bY his side. His wife says she is not able to throw light upon the affair. She thought him to be a widower and •only knows that his first wife's home was in .New York state somewhere. CBXRUt. A MOTHBR'S CHIME. Mre. Augusta Edmunds, living wltlr her husband at 1,410 south Compton avenue, 8t. Louis, Mo., cut the throat of her three daughters and then her own the other morning. Two of the girls died almost Instantly. One child and the mother arc still alive. They cannot recover. Not long ago Mrs. Edmunds tried to Atlantic and Paf,tflr railroad company to aid in the construction of the railroad and telegraph line from the states of Missouri and Arkansas to the Pacific coast, and to restore the same to settlement, deferred. A lengthy debate on the recent financial troubles ensued: when the bill for the creation of a bureau of labor statistics was taken up, pending debate on which the Senate went into executive session and soon adjourned. HOUSE—The following bill* were Introduced and referred- Mr. Weller, of Iowa, authorising the secretary of the treasury to use as soon as may bn, all the surplus money In the treasury for the redemption of bonds outstanding, at a price not above par. By Mr. Lewis of Louisiana, prohibiting the confirmation, certification and patenting of unearned land grants. By Mr. King, of Louslana, directing the secretary of the treasury to allow a rebate of ten per cent, on all woods Imported in vessels of American register. The bill to abolish discriminating duties on foreign works of art was defeated. The consular and diplomatic, and the arm and i>istrict of Columbia appropriation bills were passed. - A motion was made to make the bankruptcy bill a special order for June 10. Much discussion was elicited, but the motion when put to vote was lest. MAY 30. 8BNATE—A bill was past extending to August, 1SS6, the time to commence laying the cable authorized by thil act of August 8, 18b2. The bill providing for the construction of the Detroit postotiice was passed. It stipulates that not more than $900,000 shall be paid for elte and building. The agricultural appropriation bill was then taken up. Mr. George moved to further Increase the appropriation for the Dromotlon of silk culture lo_ $30,000. Messrs. Morgan, Miller of California, and Mitchell spoke in favor of the amendment. Mr. Ingalls opposed it in one of his caustic speeches. The silk industry, he said, had at* tracted capital, and should be left to its own resources. "The government is becorat [ ing too paternal," said the Kansas senator; "too maternal. I may aay.' It reminds me of ' Who ran to catch me when I fell the and » C O U p l e t I TT U U 1 BU MJ U t l L U U1C T, UUU i. J u l , I kissed the place to make It well—my mother. We.are turning the people into a race of selfdependent mendicants. We are depriving the people of those manly, stalwart virtues that have made this nation great, hy this continuous attempt of the government's Interference with all matters which ought to be left to private enterprise and Industry." The amendment was finally rejected by a vote of 33 yeas, to 29 nays. The bill then passed substantially as reported. The bill to authorize the construction of a bridge across the Missouri river at a point to be selected between the north and south line of the county of Douglas, Neb., and to make the same a post route, passed. HOUSE.--Mr. Ellis of Louisiana, from the commute on appropriations, asked leave to report a joint resolution making an additional appWprtaWh70lt:f100,OOtr for the Telle* of the sufferers from the ^overflow of the Mississippi river and tributaries. Mr. Connelly of Penn- -aylvania objected to consideration of the resolution. The rest ot the session was occupied by Hewitt of New York In a personal explantlon in relation to the Oliver letter and a discussion on the contested election case of English vs. Peelle of Indiana. MAY !>l, SENATE.—The chair appointed Messrs. Sherman, Morrill, Allison. Bayard and Lamar on the part of the Senate as a commission to supervise the dedication ceremonies in connection with the Washington monument. A number of petitions were presented and referred protesting against any governmental assumption of telegraph service. Mr. Harrison, of Indiana, presented a counter petition setting forth that the Western Union Company's employes are engaged getting signatures to petitions in opposition to the postal telegraph. A resolution calling on the president for Information concerning the appointment of commissioners to examine certain sections of the Northern Pacific railroad was referred to the judiciary committee: yeas 27, naVB 23. The following bills were passed: For the erec tion of public buildingB at Vicksburg, $100,- 000; Chattanooga, $100,000; Opelouea, La., $50,000; Portland, Ore., $150,000; Sac.ramento,- kill herself In this manner, and since then has been closely watched bj her husband- The other day, however, during the temporary absence of the latter, she got possession of her husband's razor, »nd accomplished one of the most dreadful tragedies known in St. Louis for many years.

It is reported that the Cuban insurgent chief, Carrlllo, has landed on the Island, and that probably he will-act in combination with the other-bands, which were expecting his arrival.

There la no longer any doubt that all the different bands are acting under the orders of an organized Central Committee, as has lately been proven by the capture of one of the insurgents on whose person documents of the •Cuban Revolutionary Committee was found. It Is positively stated that all insurgents captured are immediately shot without trial. People in Cuba do notJbe-. lleve that this method of dealing with the re- —volt will prove successful, as the magnitude of the uprising will soon become known in spite •of the silence Imposed upon the press. The press ie now under more restrant than at any previous time. Previously the censor confined himself to striking out what should not be pub- Hahert, and nopnnlfthment was imposed. Now the authorities confiscate the paper-and denounce it to the tribunals, - which Impose a punishment of temporary suspension, and after a paper has been three tlmeB denounced and condemned it is suppressed altogether. This has lately happened to a Republican paper which had made itself particularly disagreeable to the powers that be. CONGRESS MAT 19.

The Board of Control of the Reform School for Girls, located at Adrian, as is well kn«wn, has recently mado some changes in the staff of teachers at that institntion. There has been considerable talk concerning the changes which the board has seen tit to make, and the friends of Miss Emma _A Hall, the superintendent, have expressed much indignation o\rer her removal. Although the board has riot yet mado public the reasons for its action, it is understood that the matter was very carefully considered beforu anything was done, and that there was a unanimous ^sentiment on the uart of the members of the board that the best interests of the state and the charge committed to their care alike demanded a change in management. The members were not satistied with the discipline which prevailM. or with the financial and practical rWults. Since it became known that the Superintendent was to retire, tlere has been an apparent awakening on the part of the inmates to the salutary influences of tho school; but the results, on the whole, have not hp>«n as satisfactory as the boarc^bellevef^oncrl i t to be the case. It would hive been much easier, so far as the board is concerned, to permit aftairs to continue as they were; but the members felt that they had something more than a pet'' functory work to perform, and that the people of the state would naturally and properly look to them for an account of their stewardship. They take pride in what the school fans dona. Thay fpol that it has proved its importance as a state institution and demonstrated its right to existence. It has done and is doing good; but the board believed ihat the schools sphere of usefulness can be widened and its absolute good increased by a change of the officials, and so believing tho changes Tverc made. About $2,000 per month is expended for the: maintenance of 157*girls and twenty-three officers and employes —say 180_in all—or thirty-seven cents per day for each. To feed and clothe the girls costs about fifteen cents, per day, without including eggs, poultry, milk, vegatables. fruit, etc.. raised on the place. These may add $2,000 or $2,600 per year, and tho interest on the money invested will add 87,000 per year more, or a total of nearly fifty cents per day "for each. The girls are quite as economically provided for in~cTothTrig arid food as they should-bo. Tho pro rata of expense's has been much lessened by the persistent vigilance of the board. If it costs, as is published, nine cents each per day to feed the iriniates, then twenty-eight cents per day for each or ycmtntui lalth, ixutfead u turner j Q - Tlred W o m e n . Philadelphia Times. If you look around on the faces iu a street car, tho number of faded and sadlooking countenances presenting themselves it .startling. Mature women have •specially a tired air about them, showin* itself not only ia pallid complexioas, but in the wearied lines arbund the mouth and oyes. Jt is impossible t« associate this appearenco with happy lives, scd yel, from dress and manner, the majority would seem to bo comfortably placod in this world. Usually the climate is supposed to have a great deal to do with the early fading of youthful freshness, and beauty of health, instead of reviving with tho spiing usually delays until tho sut days followed by the crisp autumn breezes, invigorate the system.- If tho truth was kuown, however, 1 suspect that it would be found that the reason why womon look tired is because thev are perpetually fatigued. Modern methods have not eased the cares of wives and mothers, whose duties have developed *with the growth of science and the expansion of art. When children were thrashed iuto obedience to parental commands, when young people understood that to hear was to obey, when husbands only expected their regular three meals a day and mended and clean clothing, the duties of women were very muoh aimpier than at the present time. In tkose happy days, when to eat, sleep and work was the whole duty of man, and the interests of posterity a side issue. the mistress of the household might, after her work was done, eat and sleep, too. At least she had a chance to work when husband and children were engagedfin business cr in school for long her. That inclination She has n<> inmate is the cost ol warming the house. teaching and Cincinnati was first to propose putting lagenyeer on tap Tk street cars; Milwaukee put stoves on the front platform to wartu the mule's heels in winter, and now Atlanta is seriously thinking of putting in pulpits and providing oach e»r with a chaplain.

A good club hours of the day.—In those days, rain or sunshino were the same, life moved in a groove, and there was a probability of things running smoothly. In those days people ate what was set before them because there was not much variety to be had, and thev were not always developing new ideas in the way of occupations and diversions that upset the regular routine of a household. Perhaps it was nioaotonous, but it was restful for tbe housekeepers.. In the great upheaval of nimd which has of late years set each individual on the search for that good living which the world is supposed to owe it, whether tho quest is continued in tho direction of business, pleasure, science, art or religion, it is the wife and mother who is expected to be tho instrument of Providence in providing the means arid forwarding the success of tho seekers, and nobody thinks of all the extra burden this throws upon her—tho strain on her sympathy, the tax on her bbdilv strength.

It is a curious fact in connection with the nineteenth eentiiry, that few people are self-reliant, and still fewer can occupy themselves agreeably without aid.

With the additional ourden of soeing that the juembers of a family aro amused, as well as their malarnal wants provided for, it ia no won • der that wives and mothers look tired.

I had felt ill all that <iav, and my head had been queer." TJien Harry would say how 4p1l eased he was, how—fortunate it was that he happened to be at the station, and how astonished he had felt at seeing the face of an old college-companion. " T h e climate of India must weaken a fellow dreadfully/' said Harry. " Y o u did not look as though you would live two days longer when I saw you, Charley: but you will soon be all right now." " I t was not India that weakened me," returned Charley. Hut he said no more. He never told his friends how he had loved and married, and how his wife luul deceived him. He spoke only of one thing, and that was his great desire to get back to India as soon as he could. "Do vou want to shoot or be shot at?-"- asked Harry impatiently. "(Jet well lirst, and then we will talk about India.*' But the getting well was slow work. There was the deep festering wound which nothing could close or heal. There was the remembrance of the fair gentle girl he had loved at Upton, and the remembrance of the woman who had knelt and called him back to forgive her. Long drearv weeks passed, and still the time had not come when he could be called well. •'What shall I get to amuse you?" said Mrs. Archer to him on the first day that he came down into the drawingroom. "Harry was obliged to go out; and I have some letters to write. Would you like a book?" " Y e s , " answered Charley, glad of anything that would take away his thoughts froTTrthe; dreary*batffrtitig past. ~ " W h a t kind of reading do you. prefer?" asked his hostess. "A nice lively novel would be the right thing. Ah. 1 know the book that will just suit you! I read it last week. I will send to the library for it." " W h a t is i t ?

" I dcmlt like women's books," said Charley abruptly. " Y o u will like this," replied Mrs. Archer. " I t is many years since I have read anything like it. There is such a breath of, summer running through it; one can see the sunshine and smell the flowers. "Whoever wrote it is a genius, whether it be man or woman." Hearing these praises, when the book came. Captain Ruthven seized it eagerly. " A lifers mistakel" he thought. "Can it be greater than mine?" And then he began to read. "Well, how-do you like the story?" said Mrs. Archer."an hour or two afterwards, when she returned to the drawing- room and saw her guest engrossed in the novel. "Very much," he answered, turning to her with a quiet smile. "The strangest thing is that I fancy I have read it before«~sonm-ottho thoug-luhs-and wordsare so familiar to me.—Lrrrrr certain? I~ have heard someone talk just as this book is written." "Then, it'you are contented, I will leave you again," said Mrs. Archer; "for I have many things tha'. require -attention." • : : When she returned, in less than an hour, some strange change had come over the invalid; his face was Hushed, his eves shone brightly, his whole frame' were these few lines in the middle of one of thy pages. The heroine had seen her lover agaih; he had spoken, and she had listened; 'then she repented, and wrote to him, telling him not to -see or speak to her again. In the midst of the letter were these words— "I know I am wrong in waiting: one mistake does not excuse another. Mine has been the mistake of a lifetime. 1 married without love, and I must endure the consequences of my own act until the end. Donot let nie see you again. I can live without love; but I cannot and will not doyjwrong. Wrong it would be to see you and listen to you again.1 V Those were the few words that caused Captain ltuthven to drop his book and wonder for a moment whether he was mad or dreaming. Then he r< ad them again. Word for word, it was the letter for writing which he had almost cursed his wife. Like a lightning-Hash, it struck him that she had written the book, and that the sheet of paper he had believed to be part of a letter written to another man was merely a page of the manuscript. He saw it all now. May had deceived him, as she frankly owned; but, oh, how small was the fault compared to the one of which he suspected her! She had written the book, and meant to tell him some time. Now he understood the few words that had,puzzled him so. She„ would never do it again—dear little innocent May! He hated himself for his blind J'ury, his mad rage, his senseless jealousy. "1 might have known.1" he" said to himself a hundred times, " t h a t she never could and never would really deceive me!"' She had written and. moreover, had published a book; but what he would once_have resented as a crime now seemed blameless. She had done that, although she had heard him say tTraTTflr did not like women writers, and would like to write a book. I began the one you have read then; but when my aunt became a great invalid I laid it "aside, and almost forgot it. -After that came the bright'summer when you loved and married me. {My life seemed so tilled up that 1";-had "no time for framing stories. 'Yoip said one day that you would never •marry-a woman who wrote; so 1 made'1 up my "mind that moment to burn all my p.^ocrs.

"V,\.ai a sen ..less, si'llish fellow I was!" interrupted Charley. "Nay." said May. "you' had a right to your own opinio.is. I burned all my short stories that "night.'""Charley: but when I came to my book I could not destroy it: so I locked it away, and decided to ask you ut another time to let me finish it." "And what then?'" asked Charley, seeing that his wife stopped abruptly. "Why. then, Charlev—please do not be angry with me; I could not help i t See.'-' she continued, growing excited as she spoke—"could you stop the sun from shining, the birds from singing, the flowers from blooming?" " N o , " acknowledged Charley, " I coiild n o t " ...- - "Nor could I," said his wife solemnly, "restrain my desire to write. I could not help myself; the thoughts would come, the words .would come, and I was obliged to write them down. So, after we came*4iere, during the hours you were away from home I finished my book.

Besides t h a t he says he c a n also dis)ill it it liquid form, so t h a t i t will be the exact equivalent of two a n d three year-old whisky immediately after coming from the still. The g e n t l e - man not only has his models in shape, but he has most of his inventions p a t e n - ted Last month parties from N e w York offered him the sum of $100,000* for his inventions; and he came within an ace of selling it to them, under the_ Impression that they were only to m a k e and sell in that state, b u t discovering that they were trying to, secure it from him for all states, he dismissed the offer. The cases of whisky will be about t h e some size as a plug of tobacco, and a r e rather light in color. A man can carry a plug of this whisky in his p o e k e t / and when thirsty can pull it out,-diss o l v e i t in a tumbler of water, or else take a " c h a w , " as he would oftobaccov It would be especially valuable the present liquid, as it would leakage. During battles the whisky carried b y armies for medfeine or stimulants haa been lost at the time when needed most by the barrels or vessels being riddled with bullets. The boxes of the solid whisky might be bhattered* but during or after the battle the cakesof alcohol could bo easily gathered up* uninjured. " Mr. Peterman has made his models* -entirely with a ^pen-knife, roundeeVthfr boilers and stills, carved the pipes,, and hollowed them out inside. He has a complete working distillery in miniature embodying his inventious,and all of it made little by little with a penknife in the weary midnight hours after days at hard farm labor. So original are his ideas on the s u b - ject, and so complicated [the devices, that no tinner or 'machinist in Pittsburgh would undertake to make him a. model, hence he h«ul to do it himself. Mr. Peterman says: "To m a k e m y solidified whisky, I must have pure alcohol. When 1 laid my claims before the Government, they s e n t ' inspectors from Pittsburgh to my place with alcohol for me to -demonstrate my ideas. They said the alcohol was perfectly pure. I have separators that I have, p a t e n t e d - a n d with them I showed them what impurities existed in the stuff they brought. Subsequently, I went to t h e city myself and tried everywhere to getpure alcohol. Finding at last a reliable drug store they sold me nine gallons ©f what they guaranteed to be pure unadulterated alcohol. I took it home, put it in my separator, and w h a t do you> think it was made of? Well, in one gallon 1 found four ounces of vitrol, two oun ces of essence of cayenne p e p - per, and God only knows w h a t other tilth in it was. I was a distiller most of my life. In all Pittsburgh L c a n ' t get a drop of p u r e alcohol. 1 offered a distiller $ 15 for a gallon, o f / t h e p u r e stuff; but ho refused to take/it; so y o u ' see my solidified whisky win be the p u r e article and reform the terrible adulteration of the present day/. " I t is just now about it. praise it. never marry one; but she had not dime worse. She was bis love, his wife, and she had been true to him. How small and mean and contemptible he felt as he thought of it all! Some men would have been proud of a wife who could write as she did. Her fame was-spread all over England. People said that she was a genius—that she had written words that moved all human hearts alike; and he, in his narrow jealousy, would have kept her all to himself, would have clipped the wings of her intellect, and forbade it to soar aloft. d ice agahrstl ady-writers had been both sincere and strong; but, when he began to reflect upon it, it seemed absurd. His wife had never neglected a duty, his house and himself were both equally well cared for. He never remembered to have seen her untidy or with ink-stained lingers; and. if this gift had been given to her, why should she not use it? 11 is repentance and remorse were as great as his sorrow had been. H e could hardly endure the two days'delay which his doctor declared to be' necessary before he-started for London, l i e th'akned his kind hospitable friends for their care of Him', andw hh an agitated heart started for the metropolis./ It was not he who had to forgive. He was the criminal: it was he who had sinned against the loving gentle girl whom he had made his wife. In ail his after-Jife Charles Ruthven never forgot that journey--its fears, its hopes, and its suspense. He did not even know whether he should find his wife at home; it was two months since he had left her. -41 e walked up to the ho»:se and rang the bed. A straitge face looked into his as the door opened, and he. had hardly strciisth or courage to ask if Mrs. Rutliveii were at home. "She-is." said the sirl: "but busy packing up. What name say?" , "All right." said the Captain, room is she in? 1 Mill go to her "She is packing up books in the drawing- room." answered the girl, whose eyes were full of wonder. " In two more minutes lie stood in the presence of his wife. He opened the doi>r quietly, and he had time to note how pale and thin the sweet face had grown. Then she looked up and saw him. Anger and pride were forgotten. She ran to him with a low cry, and he folded her trrhis" breast. " ' "You have forgiven me, Charley!" she said, when he gave her time to speak. " I k n e w you would. I thought you never could be so cruel as to leave me for ever, just for such a little thing as writing a book." " I t was not that, darling," he said; and then Charley told her all—-all he had suspected and feared and believed. Her sweet face wore a pained, startled trembled with excitement—She COTI!d not help fancying that she saw trace3 of tears upon his cheeks. — ~ — 'Mrs. Archer, " h e - c r i e d , when-she- -untered the room, "when do you think 1 shall be able to return to London? I must go to-morrow, or the day after."' " W h a t lias come'over you?" she asked, laughing at his impatience. " I must go." he said; "it is life or death to me." "If you are very careful," replied his kind hostess, "I "think you will be fit to travel in a dav or two. But what is it?" "Nothing," he said; but she could see that ho was greatly agitated. What was the cause o f . i t ? Something very simple. He had grown much interested in the story he was reading. . It was a well-told, ixnverfully-written tale—the history of " a life's mistake."' The heroine—a" beautiful, faulty, imperious, wilful, lovable girl—married in a, moment of piquerthe man she did not love, in order to be revenged upon the man she did love. Then came'sorrow, remorse, and misery. She met him again—and then came temptation.

May." he added; "how came yoit to write that fanious liuolv£.! -J— - -• "There is n o t h i n g / m u c h to tell," answered his wife, with one of her old smiles, "l-was always fond of writing; becaiise I was such a 1 had manv faiTctful I think it was lonely child, thoughts alio and the tre/s the lives of the llowers I used to write them, down, because aunt Bessie did not likeh to hear tu6 talk about them.

I don't believe I have a bit of genius in me; but, Charley; I will promise never to deceive you-agaim -4 will never write any more." But. Ruthven. would take no such promise. He candidly avowed, that his prejudice had-been-a very—unjust one; and he gave it up gracefully, owning that he had been wrong. The books were put back in their places, and May Ruthven did not return to Upton, as she meant to do. That was the first and last misunderstanding they ever had. Charley says now. "Each one to his vocation—mine is lighting, my wife's is writing." They went to India together; but there is a rumor that Ruthven's regiment will soon be ordered home.

Such writers as J. T. Trowbridge, Miss Alcott, Lucy Larcom, Helen Giay Cone, Alice Wellington Rollins, Mrs. B. F Butts and others, have done their best to make thisnumoer an unusually interesting one, not only for the little ones, but for children of larger growth, as well. In a paper on "The- Use and abuses of P a i t i e s , " in the J u n e Century, Dr. Washington Gladden advises advises independents to try to act with over savetheir party in the choice of candidates, and t o bolt bad nominations. In "Topicsof the T i m e / ' an editorial called "Reaping the Whirlwind."is a sequel to the editorial of the April Century entitled "Mob and Magistrates," which so surprisingly anticipated the Cincinnati riot. Another editorial in the J u n e number relates to another phase of the riot —the militia and the measures Congress ought to take to increase its efficacy. The department of "Open lett e r s , " is replete with many good things, and in fact the whole number is such a "treasure-trove" of literary gems that ah attempted review' is unnecessary. Though there are four profusely illustrated papers in the J u n e Century, and four full pago pictures, this number of the magazine is perhaps even more notable for its literary features than for its pictures. O/ special interest is Miss Fanny Stone's "Diary of an American Girl in Cairo during the .Yar of 1882." It is ?. vivid and remarkable narrative of the life of General C. P. Stone's family during-fehe month that mother and daughters were v ex posed in Cairo to the greatest uncertainties and dangers, whileJGeneral Stone was at his post with the Khedive, and aiding in the Knglish operations against Arabi.

This announcement has createcf a flutter of expectation: among the readers of Godey^s, inasmuch as the forthcoming serial is said to be the best thing Helen Mathers has written y e t , and the success of her previous works would therefore justify great expectations. The present number of the magazine contains a biographical sketch of this talented young authoress that will/ bo read with interest by her many au: mirers. / / • Boys,'.Learn a T r a d e / A sad story comes from Concord, New Hampshire, of a young lawyer too proud to beg, dying of actual starvation. For several years he had been a member of the bar in his county, and although a young man of good ability, industrious, temperate and honest, clients did not come to him. The profession was overcrowded, a n d t h o y o u n g man's talents and energies were wasted in the vain attempt to gsiiti a position and tho wherewithal to buy the necessaries of life.

The victim w&a Lulu Dyke, n little girl between six and seven years of a^e, and very slight and email for her years. BheVaa the daughter of William Dyke. At the close of school the previous afternoon she started for home, but on account of tbe rain turned Into a cross road to her grandmother's whc*e^ residence was nearer. After the shower she again set out for home and was seen to turn into the main ro»a at about 5 v. M. Her parents supposed she was at her grandmother's, but as she did not reach home lor supper they went to that place only to learn that she had left long before. All night long the parents, with the assistance of their friends, kept up a futile search for their lost child; no trace of her being found until early the next morning when her father discovered her dead body ou the bank of a dry mill race, about 50 roda back from their home. A "lugle glance at the pitiful object crushed tbe last hope tbat had clung to hi»i through the long night. She lay on her back, the top of her head cruBhed to a pulp, while her position and the torn condition ot her underclothes gave sickening t violence of her murderer's inUnt. The father summoned the other searchers and the remains were tenderly carried to their former home. The particulars spread rapidly, about the couutrj and a party returning to the spot where the body was found easily discovered trie tracks of a man and beside those made bv the bare feet of the little girl, together with several large rocks stalnedT with blood, which were evidently the weapons used by the murderer. A coroner's Inquest was held at that place as soon as the jurors could be, summoned, but Nothing new was elicited. Among those best acquainted In the neighborhood, suspicion Immediately fell upon David Stone, a half-demented uncle of the little girl. Several fact* also pointed toward him as the guilty one, and these, things were deemed sufficient to warrant his arrest, which was eflected at once. He has made no admission and gives no indication of guilt in his actions, soitbat there is great doubt as tothe justtnruf hiV and the officers tre still searchir^ for othei clews. . The mother of the girl Is nearly distracted. She iri not naturally strong and It Is feared she will not recover from the terribk- shock.

Rumors of a horrible crime in Wilson Township, Kalkaska Co., came to the ears of Prosecuting Attorney Boyd a few days ago and upon a slight Investigation of the. matter sufficient probability of its commission was found to warrant the arrest of the party charged. The wife and little daughter of Charles Newell, ^f-ffiilson Township, the, person under arrest, tell the following story: A man by the name of Dell -Brundlge, who has been living In Newell's family the past winter, got Into an altercation with Newell just before town meeting In regard to voting Tor supervisor, Newell telling Brundlge that if he voted for James Haynes for Supervisor he would kill him. Brundlge replied that he would vote for whom he pleased, and on town meeting day went to the pole6 and voted for Haynes. He did not. however, go back to Newell's, b u t ~ w c n t t o ~htS"~houiestead and stayed until Sunday, the £7th of April when' he went to Ncwc-11's house to get same clothes which he had left there. Newell forbade his taking the clothes until he (Bruiidige) had paid 17 50 for board, which Newell claimed t r e other owed him. Brundlge refused *a pay this and was going away with the clothes when Newell seized a gun and tired at him. Mrs Newell cannot s-iy whether the-shot •took, effect or not, for Newell immediately clubbed his gun aud struck brundlge tt blow uti the. tg* head, crushing his skull andd lk illing bim almobt tnstantly. The body was placed in the cellar until Newell went out and built a log and brush heap, after which it was taken out and burned and the ground afterward plowed and dragged to obliterate all traces. The bones were burled, but the Informant cannot tell just where. The prosecuting attorney-and sheriff wiliio. vestigate the matter further before a warrant is issued, as Newell and his wife are both bad characters, and she once before made complaint against him for attempting to violate the person of his own daughter, a girl then about eight years of age, and Ihen at the trial received ahrihe^ undoubtedly, to. make-the- little girl swear in her father's favor. Meanwhile Newell will remain in jail. S e n s i b l e Advice t o S u p e r v i s o r * . J. M. Fuller, the level-headed clerk of Montcalm county, has sent thirfoTlowihg circular to all the supervisors and town clerks in Montcalm county. We print it so that it shall include the state. Its statements and suggestions should be read and pondered by all: "Gentlemen: The undersigned, trusting that you will not deem it .Aa-i*»«ertlne»ce, respectfully asks your careful consideration of the duties devolved upon you by the law, found on pages 1900 and 1901 < f the annotated statutes, requiring you to furnish lists of persons to serve as .jurors ln_£he circuit court for the year ensuing. Pouring contempt upon the verdict of juries and the jury system Is so common that it Is greatly to be feared that faith m the fair administration of justice, by civil courts, is rapidly being destroyed. The legitimate fruitage of this will he the wreaking of private vengeance and unreasoning brutal mobs. It Is as sure to occur In Michigan as in Cincinnati, l i It the fault of the 6ystera or of its administrations The writer believes It to be the latter. Please carefully read the law, and then send me the names ot such men, at.d of such only, to whose judgment you are willing to commit your dearest interests, your right to liberty, your good name and rights of property. Ifyou.do that, the juries and their verdicts in Mnntcalm county will orotect all Interests and reflect honor upon the" integrity and intelligence of her citzens. The responsibility for better verdicts rests with you." T h r e e JIurdorerH-*ciiteiiced. Wm. B.

Jacob Katterman, the bliird and la*t, was called on the afternwn of the 21st. In his case the Jury were out about three ininu Hud returned a verdict of murder in tb< tlrst decree, and the jud^f passed the hame teatenoM upou bim. W i l l \ o t l u t c r i e r e . TheDomtnlou government hasdeeidid not to interfere in the case of Luke I'blppc, now awaiting execution at Saudwich for the murder of his wife. This removes the last hope which the unhappy man may have had that his sentence would be commuted to Imprisonment for life. A petition was tent to Senator Palmer a abort tlme'ago, entreating the IJnlf ed States government to interfere on the ground of Phipps being an American clllzen. A special cabinet meeting wan called, and tbe subject discussed, but it was decided that Phipp's case was not one which called for interference. Phipps recently abandoned all hopes of clemency, although knowing that another effort was being made to save him. He is now preparing, with t b e aid of a fresbyterlan minister, for the eventful morning of June 17, when his execution takes place at Sandwich jail.

All seemed to be going well, when, in an instant, the engineer reversed his engine, applied tho air brakos, and came £o a full stop. Why he did so he could not tell any more thah any of us can account for the dread kof coming disaster and death, and to'the wondering inquiry of his fireman he simply said: " I feel that something's wrong." Seizing a lantern he swung himself down, from the cab and went forward to investigate. Everything appeared to be right, and he was about to return to his engine when his eje caught sight of a peculiar appea ance at the joint of the rail next to him. Brushing tke accumulated snow away, he looked a moment, ^and then uttered an exclamation of .horror.

"I)o you have these feelings often when upon the road?" continued the writer. —"No,"very seldom, although for the past twenty years I have been in a condition to feel apprehension at almost anything," _ _ Don't make the mistake of doctoring liver and kidney's to cure consumption.

Tuesday, Mike had been in Dexter and as usual laid in a supply of the ardent, coming home just drunk enough to feel ugly, and, unhitching his team, turned them into the h.eld. Mr. Vaughn and a young man named Ferris, son of a neighbor, went up and took care of the horses, putting them in the stable, and after naving a few words with Mike/ who talked rather saucy, Mr. Vaughn thought he would speak to Mrs. rfoban about the matter, and stepping into the house, sat talking with the old lady, when young Ferris, who stood in the doorway called out to him: "Look out Johnny he's going to shoot!'1 Turning, Mr. Vaughn saw Mike approaching with a drawn revolver evidently aimed at his head. Rushing forward to disarm his assailant, when about four feet distant the revolver was fired, the bait, (a 32 Calibre) striking Mr. Vaughn in the left shoulder, shattering the collar bone and lodging just above the left lung. The wounded man did not fall, but pressing forward threw Hoban to the floor, and passing .out was able to reach the house of a neighbor across the street before his strength failed. Meanwhile Hoban was again on his feet and a lively scuffle ensued between him and young Ferris, who saved himself by throwing Hoban's hand upward, the second ball from the revolver putting a hole through the ceiling. At length Ferris floored the man and succeeded in disarming him, taking away not only the revolver in his hand but second one which he had not displayed. Hoban managed to get away, however, and escape to a grove not very distant, from wliich he was hunted out and captured by a band of neighbors who had soon assembled, and was promptly turned over to the sheriff of Washtenaw county, by whom LAND PLA STER.

The Nominees of the Greenback Convention, A u U - B u i l # r l t e » T h r e a t e n 10 B o l t . The national Greenback convention reasscm- ' bled at|10 o'clock May 29, Gen. Weaver presiding. The committee on resolutions were not yet ready to report and the entire forenoon session was taken up with brief addresses by members of the convention. The pl»t/orui •commitUe sent word to the presiding officers that tb-'y would not be ready to report be- —igteJjAK-past :2 or 3 o'clock, and at a quarter before 12 the convention adjourned until 2 o'clock. The convention reassembled pursuant to adjournment and the committee on resolutions not Wing readyto report the intervening time was occupied in making and adopting motions of thanks to various persons, including the cpmmittee of arrangements, presiding officer*, local press and also VV. H. English for the free use of the opera house, t-te. A tending sympathy to union printers and organ Ized labor in the boycotting tight against the New York Tribune was read and referred. It was three o'clock whrn the committee announced their readiness to report. The majority report was re id by Mr. Norton, chairman of the committee • It contained a lengthy preamble setting forth the object of the Greenback party aad what it has accomplished, saving congress had repealed over $12,000,000 annual taxes Tor banks, throwing this burden upon the people to pay the interest" thereon-.' Following is the platform That we hold the late decision of the su* preme court on the legal tender question to be a full vindication of the theory which that party has always advocated on the right and authority of congress over the issue of legal tender notes, and we hereby pledge ourselves to uphold said decision and to defend the constitution against alterations or amendments intended to deprive people of any rights or privileges conferred by that Instrument. We demand the issue of such money in suchqauntities to supply the actual demands of trade and commerce in accordance with the increase of population and the development of our industries. We demand the substitution of greenbacks for national bank-notes and prompt payment of the public debt. We want that money which saved our country in time of war, and which has given it prosperity In peace. We condemn the retirement or fractional currency and small denominations of greenbacks .and demand their restoration. We demand the fseo« qf the hoards of money now locked up in the Unite* states treasury by applying tbeml to thepayment ot the public debt now due. 2. We denounce as timgerous to our repucliean4nfitltutions those methods andpollcit s of the Democratic and Republican parties which have sanctioned or permitted the establjahment of land, railroad, money and other gigantic; corporate monopolies, and we demand such governmental action as may be necessary to take from such monopolies the power they have eo corruptly, and unjustly usurped ana restore them to the people to whom they belong. 3. The public lands being the natural inher itance of the people we denounce that policy which has granted to-corporatiuns vast tracts of land, lind wt demand that vigorous and immediate measures be taken to reclaim from such corporations for the people's use and benefit all such land grants as have b.en forfeited by reason of non-fulfillment of contract or that may have been wrongfully acquired by corrupt-legislation; and that such railroad lands and other public domaina_he_ henceforth held as a sacred trust, to be granted only to actual settlers In limited quantities, and we demand that alien ownership of land, Individual or corporate, shall be prohibited. 4. We demand congressional regulation of inter-atate commerce, We denounce "pooling," stock watering and discrimination in rates-and charges; and that congress shall correct these abuses, even if necessary by the construction of national jrailroads. We also demand the establishment of a government postal telegraph system, 5. All private property, all forms of money and obligations,to pay money, should bear their just proportion ot public taxes. We deuiana a graduated income tax. 6. We demand an amelioration of the conditlon- oflalxtr^yjegiQrclng sanitary laws in industrial establls&miutfc, by the aTiuIItTon"oTttoe i convict labor system, by rigid inspection of mines and factories, by a reduction of .the fcours of labor in industrial establishments, by fostering educational Institutions, ^ n d by abolishing chilu labor. 7. We condemn all importation's of contracted labor made with a view to reducing to starvation wages workinc: U>cn of this country, aud demand l*ws frsr Us'preventijn. 8. We must insist upon a constitutional amendment reducing the terms of United States senators. 9. We demand such rules for the government of congress as shall place all representatives of the people upon an iqual footing and take away from the committees a veto power greater than: that of the President. 10. The question as to the amount of duties to be levied upon various articles of import has been agitated, quarreled over, and has divided communities, for nearly a hundred years. It is not now and never will be settled unless by abolition of indirect taxation. - It is a convenient issue, always raised when people are excited over abuses in their midst. While -we favor a wise revision of the tariff laws with a view to raising revenue from luxuries rather than necessaries, u c insist that as an economic question its importance is insignificant as compared with financial issues, for whereas we have suffered our worst panics under the low and also under high tariffs, we have never' suffered from a panic or seen our factories and workshops closed while the volume of money in circulation was adequate to the needs of commerce. Give our farmers and manufacturers money as cheap as you now give our bankers and they can pay high wages to labor and compete with all the world. 11. For the purpose of testing the views of the people upon the subject, we are In favor of submitting Yo the vote of the people an amendment to the constitution in favor of suffrage, regardless of sex, and also on the subject of the liquor traffic 12. All disibled soldiers of the late war should be equitably pensioned, and we denounce the policy of keepings small army of office holders, whose only business is to prevent on technical grounds deserving soldiers from obtaining justice from the government they helped to save. 13. As our name indicates, we are a national party, knowing no east, no we3t, no west, s o south. Having no sectional prejudices, we can properly place in nomination for the nigh offices of state candidates from any section of the union. We appeal to all people who believe In our principles to aid by voice and pen and votes. The following resolutions sent by Mosses W. Field of Detroit, were passed. To the President of the Greenback convention. Regretting my inability to attend the convention by circumstances beyond my control, pleaae present my resolutions: Whereas, Labor Is wholly dependent upon a market foists support in tpe sale of Its varied productions; and, •i' * - *» Whereas, All business and "prosperous | times" depend and rest upon the universal employment of the people; and, Whereas, Our home market, far the largest f and most valuable of any country of the world, is of Inestimable value, and it belongs to the people of the United States; and, > Whereas, The whole market is far "Bettor for our people than a part or subdivision of the same; therefore Resolved, That we demand that the markets of our country be reserved to the American people and that this inalienable right be secured to them by a permanent policy and suitable legislation. And we further demand that the people of foreign countries shall not be permitted, freely to avail themselves of the advantages and benefits of our heme markets without payment of adequate custom house taxes for the privilege. Ttie majority report was adopted and the couveutJou proceeded to select candidates for president and vice-president. ' THE TICKET— UCTLEK ANtl WEST. The roll of states was calted, and C. E.

Sprugue of Rhode Island were appointed a committee to wait on Gov. Butler and Gen. West and notify theru of the acttou o! the convention. C A P I T A L N E W S . A PHOPOSED AMENDMENT. Senator Inealls has reported to "the Senate from the committee on Judiciary a substitute for the joint resolution Introduced by Senator Jackson, proposing an amendment to the constitution in relation to the terms of office ;of president and vice-president. The amendment to.the constitution provided for in Mr. Iogall's substitute is as follows; Article 2. The executive power shall be vested in the president of the United tttates of America. The president and vice-president hereafter elected shall hold their efficesfor, the term of six years, but the president shall not be re-eligible, nor shall the vice-president be eligible to the officeof-preaKf dent if he shall have exercised the same in case of vacancy therein. N B W N NOTJBfe CRUSHED TO DEATH. A terrible accident occurred at Hooper's building in Baltimore. Eight persons are known to have been crushed to death. The weight of the cotton stored in the building caused its collAp^£^_JWJ^ejL_the_ front of the building fell in three or fouTpersons wenfrirt the counting-room and four in the shipping office.

The victim w»a Mrs who poisoned her husband last fall, and was duly comicttd-and sentenced at t i e Linclon shire cessions. She had, however, acquired some money by her husband's death, and she spent it liberally in pressing an.appeal to the Home Secretary for a communtatlon. of &en*,ence to imprisonment for life, or, ;f that was lefused, lor a reprieve of a few weeks.

Mrs. Leffiey fought desperately to prevent these restraints and gave utterance to frightful yells, which were heard even outside the massive walls of the jail. Gn the way to the scaffold the screams oTlthe condemned were almost maniacal and drowned the voice of the prison chaplain, who was reciting the prayers for the dying, When she was pla2ed upon the trap she continued to scream and incoherently avow her innocence delphla adopted the committee's report relat T5g to the subject of marriage and divorce, aad--|-A--vote_-ffas f recognizing none but scriptural reasons for until the white cap was pulled down over her mouth and'jstilled her voice.

He says El Mahdi's emissaries have not as yet been very successful in their endeavors to raise.troop3 for the purpose of taking Dongola, but adds that a bad impression ha; been produced on the Dongola garrison by not re ceiving reinforcements, and fears that if help is not sent soon the-garrisen, may fraternize with the rebe's when the latter approach Dongola.

All this time the old man was growing feebler and less able to carry on the farm. His daughters had all died but one, and she had married a poor man, who could ill afford to support any one outside his own family, Of late years Uncle Cale had rented his large farm house to summer hoarders, and the money he made from this, with what .. lifclleJauYjiie could spare, were the sinews that enabled him to contend with approaching poverty. Among the migratory birds of pleasure that sought out this Maine farm house for a retreat last summer was one Mrs Ness, a middle-aged lady from Eastern Tennessee, who had come North for the purpose of trying the effect of the climate on an invalid daughter. The simple, old-fashioned ways of the old man, with his child-like prattle, were something new Jx> her, who wa3 accustouied to the artificial cant of society, and he interested her so much that'in a short time she knew his whole history. When he teld-her how J o h n n y had-gone-away.tathe West on a mission to Sherman's army and had never returned, she Decamo deeply moved and asked him how his boy looked and what his rank was. As the father went on with his tale he took onK a faded photograph from his old leather wallet and showed it to her, saying: " T h a t ' s Johnny's picture; he had it ta£en just before ho wrote his last letter." She looked at it for a moment with a puzzled gaze as if she were trying to recall old memories; then she passed it back to him. ••[ was with him when he died," said she mechanically. . After the, surprised father had become quieted a little, she told him the story. Her husband was lighting in the Confederate army and she was at homo with a few servants. One day soThe hTgrocs brought a dyfng- Union soldier to her house. They had found him lying unconscious by the roadside,x From the delirious titterings of the sick m a n she judged that he was trying to escape to the Federal lines. On the next day he died, and she got a c a s k e t a n d had him decently buried on a little knoll at the side of her house. Neither from his talk nor from any papers found upon his person could she learn his name--or home, and she had numbered him as one of the unknown dead, and thy incident had nearly passed from her memory, when one glani&^t th^^hojojjraph recalled kis fresh, boyish features bacTcTromfh~e •rtttd-pfrstand" caused h e r t o remember the scones she had struggled to forget. Acting cm the suggestion of Mrs. Ness the old farmer set about establishing his claim'for the money, at the same time making an application, for a pension. The proofs were sufficient.

The strange light was still on his face, but his eyes were closed like those of a man who is afraid of being dazzled. Oh the day after the funeral a letter came to him from his friends in the South, congratulating him on his good luck and asking him to go and visit Johnny'sjgrave. , It was too late.

Our city ife unique perhaps in presenting examples of men broken down in spirit and fortunes, whose uncontrollable desire to feed at the public enb makes them willing to accept any goeition, however lowly, rather than be kept out of Government employ for 0|jj time. Not that the) are unable ifJIMMre employment elsewhere;,on try, their past experience "Make their services valuable in anaay respects to private individuals, And undoubtedly would do so if they oould bring themselves to aCZadon what they perhaps consider "public lift." I know of an ex-member of the Wisconsin Legislature, now a doerfcttperand messenger of one of the 'Ifcsjuie Committees; another, also a doorkeeper, who not long ago was a bank president in Virginia and occupi- - ed some responsible public positions in his State; stil another, who is the son of an ex-United States Senator, and M such, very likely, imbibed the taste for holding public office which he now gratifies by filling the position* of a doorkeeper; and I could go on citing an indefinite number of cases to sup- J—port- "?y prnpnaitinn if <apq™ pfirmjtted me to do so. Recent events seem to have demonstrated that, considering its size, there is more speculation going on here at the National Capital than in any other city in the United States. This is especially true of speculation in a small way. Among the thousands of Government employes receiving on an Average from $900 to 12,000 a year, there are very few, I venture to say, -who have not at one time or another taken a "flyer" at stocks or dabbled in wheat The opportunities for doing so are many. The temptation to increase their little income by some lucky kit j * not always withstood and the victims who are "bitten" at an early stage of the game do not always benefit fcv the lesson taught them. The spirit of gambling extends to the Army and Navy, and even some of the foreign diplomatic attaches principally, whose way of ekinlgdtitmHTtug- is as mW'Hl- • prnblftn t/i thftm perhaps as f,n "I don't now much about the style in gentlemen's apparel," said a l;u/ly, ubut the last thing in spring overcoats is my husband; he never gets in until 1 a. m.1'—[Merchant-Traveler.! i- «•_.

Benjamin is tm~ thoritatively stated to have made $75,- 000 a. year at the English bar for some years. When he first commenced practice there he undertook jury cases, but in the difficult arts of cross-examination and addressing London juries, which require a special faculty, he did not shine. * So he restricted himself to the equity side, to tho courts in banc and courts of appeal. Still later he refused to go into any court but the "house" of lords and privy council, except Jor a fee of $500, and a client having demanded a consultation at his own house, the fee was $1,000.

It is between four and tuTe feet in length and in shape aril size resembles a small elephant; the hind parts were a little lower than the head.

If it should become an established practice with courts and juries to convict careless and incompetent doctors and quacks of manslaughter and send them to prison for killing people, the practice of medicine and surgery would be greatly changed in a shorl time and a good many pretenders who now make a living by tampering with the lives and health of credulous dupes would be compelled to %o out of their business.

The tierce solar heat which has con- -tributecr 1o the intensity of the Cuban drought should, Lowever, be a hint to farmers Jn our own droughty sections to speed the growth of their crops by careful cultivation before the dry period of summer sets in, This will be tho most effective means within their power of securing the crops from the withering effects of a deiicient rainfall. Thfl need for this caution is more clearly indicated as for some time the rainfall on the Atlantic seaboard has been remarkably light.

Nearly five weeks has elapeed since Freeman left Stockbridge—and it is ^aimedthat nor tidingshave be en heard from him—it all seems strange, very strange indeed. -Dr. Choate don't put in an appearance any more, perhaps he is sririted away too—nothing fiiracgc ttuouitiittu tiaxj^ll: The following items were received ioo late for publication last week.

The following items were received too late for publication last week. Mr. Geo. Abbott, living about 60 rods south of the station at Mt. Ferrier, came near losing his barns last week by fire. He noticed a smoke puffing up by the side of his horse barn and ran as fast as he could to see what was the matter, when he tound that some straw and compost was on fire and under such headway that the flames were leaping into the openwindows of the ba»n, he closed them as quickly as possible and as water was handy he was fortunate enough to subdue the flames. He can not account for the fire but thinks it possible that it was set by a spark from a passing train, as there was a strong wind from the southwest and a passenger train had passed through but a tew minutes before. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Lester, of Lansing, were visiting Mr. Lester's parents and other friends Sunday and Monday of this week. Miss Maggie Grieve was taken seriously ill on Tuesday of last week. She was reading by the table and had appar. ently leaned her head upon her arms to rest, her mother spoke to her two or three times ~and becoming alarmed went to her and found her to be unconcious. Mrs. Hotes, a lady who hap* pened to be laying with them for the night called,in assistance and Dr. Mc- Kenzie was summoned as quickly as possible. It was feared that she would never revive but in about three hours she began to show signs of consciousness. Miss Grieve has many warm friends in Putnam, who will be anxious to hear'about her and pleased al* so to know that she is rapidly recover * ing her usual health. The Dr. pronounced it a case of stoppage of the heart. - ^ - INCKIVE 03ST D E C K TOMPKINS & ISIVION, DO YOU WANrTURNITUlTF?

Farrington & Co., of Detroit, was certainlv "mighty/ with a vengeance. It was cut just before noon and pronounced a "full cream" of excellent flavor, as all agreed who sampled it, but before Tuesday morning eighteen of the twenty-two persons who had tasted it were either slightly or seriously ill. The symptoms were violent purging and vomiting accompanied by nervous chills—in some cases quite alarming— but from which all have nearly or quite recovered. The injurious effects were probably due to an excess of acids, which existing in proper proportion give flavor to the cheese, but in their free state are very poisonous. The cheese was one of the "State Line" brand, which has had an excellent reputation. Donaldson's circus has come and gone, and while there wasn't so much of itasijL-S.Qme,-oi the great_rjjlroad_ shows, those who attended (and there was a goodly number at each performance) speak in very complimentary terms of the entertainment, while the men connected with the show, from least to greatest, were much praised for their intelitfence and good behavior. In the midsUof the evening performance a can of gasolene used for supplying the lights, exploded, through carelessness of a young man who had charge of it, setting fire to the tent used as a dressing room and burning several persons connected with the show, quite badly. Mr. Donaldson, proprietor.of the circus, and Chas. H. Alpine,- one of the acrobats, were "most TnJureH7'"TEeTr "TmTs-o'f-l^T5t't8Ti been foremost among the leaders of the party. Iceland has been a well educated country for many centuries, in the absence of any system of schools. Ita children are taught at the fireside, and those of them who wish to pursue more advanced studies have been accustomed to attend the University of Copenhagen. With the restoration of the island to self-government, the desire has arisen to make the country independent of Denmark in this regard also. The Althing, or parliament, has voted to establish a university, to bear the modest name of "Public Institution of Iceland." The three faculties of theology, medicine and jurisprudence have been definitely decided upon, while the character and divisions of the philosophical faculty will be subject of further legislation. The new university is to be officially opened on tBe 1st of October, 1885, on which day the existing smaller institutions for theological and medical students will cease to exist, and will be merged into the new school. This will be the most Northern University in the world, Helsingfors coming next. A CARD.

Delegates to the Republican national convention oegan arriving in Chicago for several days before the time appointed for the conven- . tion. Although on e\ery side was expressed a delightful uncertainty as to the real outcome, the beet of feeling prevailed between all factions. The first meetlng~of~iuiy real Importance was that of the national committee which began its session at noon on the 31st u l t , Chairman D. M. Sabin of Minnesota presiding. John Armltage of Kansas secretary, and Gsorgc W. 'Hooker of Vermont assistant secretary, were present in their respective capacities. All the state* and territories were on the calling of the roll found to be represented with theexcep tion of Louisiana, Utah, Florida and Soufh Carolina, James A. 8exton was chosen sergeant- at-arms of the convention. I . M. Bean of Wisconsin and James H. Stone of Michigan were named as reading clerks. The committee adjourned till 7 o'clock. By a unanimous vot-p it, wan flpplflert to take up the case of contested delegations of the state of Virginia, which embraces all the di-ligations in the state includiug four delegates at large. Senator 'Aidrich of Rhode Island moved that the delegation headed by Senator Mahone be placed upon the rolls. Mr. Beattie of Montana offered an amendment referring the contest to the cointnittee on credentials of the national convention without action. The amendment was lost on a vote by call of states as follows: Ayes, California, Maine, Nebraska, New Jersey, West Virginia', Arizona, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Wyoming, total 10; nays, Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Deiaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Oregonjjr/ennevlvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia," Wisconsin," Dakota, Utah, Washington territory, District Columbia, toUl SI. The original motion of 8enator Aldrich was then carried by a similar vote. The result of the vote seats the Mahone delegation in the •national convention, subject, however, to any action the convention itself may take. In the situation may be brieily summed up as follows: There is much excitement to-night over the selection of Clayton as temporary chairman of1 the convention. This feeling is conilued mostly to delegates Opposed to Blaine, but there are u number of Blaine adherents who express dissatisfaction at the choice of the national committee. So intense, Indeed, is the feeling upon this subject that a plan is on foot to attempt to defeat Clayton in „1he convention to-morrow and elect Hon. B. K. Bruce (colored), register of the United States Treasury, in Ms stead. The feeling in some quarters is exceedingly bitter, and that a svrong effort will be made to compass Gaston's, del eat twins very likely. THE 4T5THVK-UES STANtt 'JUIOI. The Arthur men have determined to :Uud lirmly by their 'candidate to "the last, and will make no combination looking to the selection; of any other man. They say this is their firm purpose, and if the Edmunds meu and otiiets wish to nomiiiute Blaine by refusing to blipport Arthur thev must take the responsibility. A STUO.V.J FEEL1NO IX FAYOU OF 0 EN. > HERMAN. There has been much quiet talk to-duy about the possibility of uomiuating liew. Sherman, it is said that a deadlock is highly probable, and. that at the proper time some prominent delegate might present the name of Gen. William Tecuruseh Sherman, the baud at the same time striking up "Marcbiug through Georgia*" when the General's friends say he will go thtouen with an enthusiasm which cannot be controlled. This has been suggested so many tim^s to-day as to excite considerable comment... J When the obiectlon was urged that the (General does not desire the nomination and/will not take It, the reply in avery instance was uwe know he will uccept if nominated." Jy ' TUKSDAT, JUNK 3. The convention was called to order at 12:25 p. m. by United States Senator Sabin, of Minnesota, as follows: Gentlemen of the Eighth Republican National Convent^—The hoar having arrived appointed for the meeting of this convention, it will now be opened by prayer by Rev. Mr. Bristol. After prayer Secretary Martin stepped forward and proceeded to read the call for the convention, after which Chairman Sabin addressed the convention as follows: "Gentlemen of the convention, on behalf of the National Republican Committee, permit me to welcome you to Chicago. As chairman of that committee it is*both mv duty and pleasure to call you to order as a National Republican Convention. This city, already known as the city of conventions, is among the most cherished of all the spots of our country sacred to the memories of a lie publican. It is the birthplace of Republican victory. On these fields" of labor gathered the early fathers of our political faith, and planned the great battle for the preser ration of the Uniou. [Applause.J Hire thev chosi that immortal chief that led us on to" victory—Abraham Lincoln. [Applause] Here was gathered in council tnose gifted men who secured the fruits of that long trouble by elevating to th« first place in the nation the foremost chieftain of that great contest—Gen.

I Loud applause.] Here was afterwards witnessed that signal triumph whiehantlclpatcd the wish of the nation by nominating a6 the color-bearer of the party that honored soldier, that shining citizen, that representative American, James A. Garfield. [Loud applause.] —Every^elellberaTTonbf the Republican forces on this historic ground has been followed by signal success, and every contest on this spot has carried forward our line of battle, until to-dny our forces overlook every position of the enemy, indeed, so secure now is the in «v.wx,- ^ , W M T V ,w._. „____.. __„ the Constitution and laws of the land are the mwfr^cohles'Un'g delegations' from' the flrsrf^egusrdraH^ Alabama and first Georgia districts It was de cided to refer them to a sub committee of three with instructions to report to the full commit' tee next Monday. In the matter of the contesting delegation from the fifth Kentucky district, a motion to refer the matter to a sub-committee was lost. On motion of Mr, Bradley of Kentucky, Silaa F. Miller and John Mason Brown were placed upon the rolls as delegates. Senator Cullom asked that action upon the contest on the second Illinois district be deferred until next Monday in view of the illness and absence or Mr. Cook. Carried. A motion to reconsider action taken in the Georgia case was lost. The committee then decided to reconsider the action taken in the Kentucky case ftn.j pn mAt.lnn1hy.nd all nt.hpr nndUpnaefl of contested cases were referred to sub-committees of three, wtth instructions to report Monday. The committee then adjourned to Monday at 12 noon. JUNE 2. The situation in the presidential canvass is very much simplified. All the delegations are on the ground, and the opposing forces are drawn up for the final clash. The support « 8 of 'the vanofls candidates lu the cuntest'- are positive that their man will be, the choice of the convention, although the most astute •observer outside of the manipulators of the political wires can not, with any degree of certainty, name the successful one. The national committee resumed its session at 2:15 this afternoon, and proceeded at once to dispose of the contested cases, after which the'work of chosrag a temporary chairman was next In order. Mr. Runnells, of Iowa, rose to offer the name of Senator Geo. P. Hoar, of Massachusetts, a gentleman who, in the midst of the exciting features of the convention of four years ago, had presided with that raTe wisdom •which had commended him to the good opinion of every delegate in that body. Paul Strobach, of Alabama, seconded the 'nomination. — A member from Louisiana named Pnwpll Clayton of Arkansas. Mr. Canady, of North Carolinia, seconded ithe nomination. Mr. Stone, of Michigan, satd, tirobedlence to the vote of his state delegation, he desired to nominate Roswell G. Horr of Michigan. — M r . Mageo. of Pennsylvania, nominated Galusha A.

Mr. Clayton said: GENTLEMEN OF THE COMMITTEE—1 deem it .proper to return thankB for the honor you have conferred upon me, not as being rendered to me personally, but to the section which t in pwt represent. I also accept with pleasure, . as having no significance whatever as to its bearing upon the nomination of a candidate for President. In fulfilling the functions of the office, if there be any mistakes they will, gentlemen, let me assure you, be of the head, and not of the heart The committee adjourned until 11 o'clock to-morrow. ORGANIZATION. The next business undertaken was that of organizing the different delegations, which -somewhat difficult undertaking formed no unimportant part of the day's proceedings. THR SITUATION. - At the eh fully'achieved, that~T>y general consent the time has now arrived for the new disposition of the party forces in contemplation of new lines of operation. Having compassed the defeat of our opponents on all former occasions, the party is about/to set its house in order and take counsel as to the direction and management of its future course. In the comparative lull of party strife which distinguishes the present condition of national politics, there Is discernible an increasing dlspo sition to look after the men who are to execute and the methods that are to guide tjhem in the execution of the powers committed to them for the management of the affairs of the republic. As a_result of the rule adopted in the last "T^trinaTT?eliuT)lIcan~convention, this convention finds itself constituted, by a large majority, of gentlemen whohave been clothed with delegated powers of the convention dn their several congressional districts. — OD this consideration may be grounded a Tjope that the voice of the people (applause) will, beyona recent precedent, be felt In moulding the work you are assembled to perform, so any msn or the success of any man, bwt for the purpose of contributing, to the extent of my vote and my influence, 10 make Republican success in November n»x. an assured fact. [Cheers. | I hope and believe that the assembled wisdom of the Republican party of the nation, through itB chosen representatives in this •hall, will so snape its platform and present such candidates before the American people as wili'^raake that victory beyond Tire ^hadow of a doubt. 8o far as tne candidates for the presidential nomination are concerned, I do not wish aoy gvntk'mnu to tcel that my election by your votes is indicative of anything relatlse to the preierenc of one candidate over another. I am prepared, and i hope that every iniemoer of tfce convention 13 prepared, to return to his home with on uniulstakabk" determination to give to the candidates of this, convention a loyal and hearty support, whoever they may be "[ Cheers, j I am satisfied lu my own mind that when we go before the people of this country our action will be ratified, because the great heart of the American people will never consent to have it political paity gain the ascendency lu 1 his government whose chief reliance is.0114 lrauilulent ballot and on violeuce at Uic polls. [Applause.] I am satisfied that the people of tnis country are too loyal to allow a man to be inaugurated President of the United States whose title to the position is brougtit forth1¾ fraud. l a m satisfied that the Amerieau people will ratify our action be cause they will never consent to have a revenue system for the government other than one that will not only raise the necessary revenue for their support, but will also be sufficient to protect every .American citizen in his business [Cheers, j I thank you for the honor you have conferred me. The appointing of temporary secretaries aSia" the committee on credentials and rule and order of business followed next in order. The question of future apportionment was next brought up in the form of the following resolution: Jitsoiwd, That the subject of the revised appointment of delegates to future national conventions and of the revised appointment of members of the National Committee be re-. ferred to the Committee on Rules and Order of Business with leave to .eport at any time before the ballot for President. After a second had been made the resolution was discussed at legth, and finally passed. A memorial by the Woman s Christian Temperance Union, asking for a prohibitory amendment to the national constitution was received and referred to the committee ou rules. Leslie W. Llssell of New York presented the following which was referred to the committee on resolutions: ., . _ ii'twtmf, |That the committee on Resolutions areheieoy directed to give a hearing .to a committee appointed.,. Ity_ the-Irlsh national league of America to present a memorial to this convention on the subject of the ownership of real estate in the United States by foreigners. ' • o At this point the convention adjourned until Wednesday at 11 o'clock. WEDNESDA1 'S PROCEEDINGS. All was busle and excitement when Chairman Lynch called the convention to order about 11 o'clock. After prayer by Rev. Mr. Burrows of tue^Frst Presbyterian c[lurch of Chicago, Mr. McGary of Maryland presented a memorial of the state__temperance alliance.of that state, ^ hick was referred to the committee on resolutions. Mr. Massey of Delaware presented a resolution asking lor an amendment to the federal constitution enlarging the _ter_m___of, the presidential office to six years and rendering the incumbent of that ottir-e inillegible to re-election. Tbe resolution was referred. An effort was made to have a resolution adopted which would bind delegates to support the nominee of the convention whoever he may be. The resolutlou rt«t with .great tegrlty ofthe Union, so firmly imbedded J n ^opposition, and afforded au opportunity for its opponents to make some of the most telling that its results may be such, as to win the un hesitating and undeviating support of every lo v'er of those' prrfrcTpres_D"y~whtch "the- parry has heretofore triumphed and yet will triumph. f Applause, J When we consider the memories of the past, 60 intimately connected with this city, and even with this edifice, which the people of Chicago haye so generously placed at your disposal; when we reflect upon the deepseated concern among all people in the result of your deliberations, and the various incentives to the abandonment of personal ambitions in the interest of the party welfare, you cannot wonder that the committee and beyond it the great Republican masses extend you a most hearty welcome to this scene of labor, in the constant hope.that your efforts will result in such an exposition of Republican doctrine, and disclose such a just appreciation of Republican men In the choice of your nominees, as to rejoice the hearts of your constituents, and keep victory on the side ot your ever victorious banner. In conclusion, at the request of the Natioaal Republican convention, A have to propose to you as temporary chairman of this convention the lion, Powell Clayton, of Arkansas. [Loud applause.] Mr.-Dodgeof Massachusetts at once sprang to his feet and in a few pointed remarks set orth the claims of the Republicans of the South, and, In recognition of their cla;m moved tbatjthe n a m e of Hon. John R. LynehjQL Mississippi be substluted. Tbe nomination wasseconded by Mr. Djtctrer of New YorK. Then followed a long and animated discussion, at the close of which the chairman directed a roll call of the delegates. When Arkansas was reached, Mr. Root of that state cast the yote cf 13 other representatives for Gen. Claytom-the other one delegate voting forLjnch. y When the result of the vote was announced it wasfoumz that the whole number of votes cast Is Sljtf of which Gafl. Clayton uas 3S7 and Jno. R. Lynch 4 3 1 r ^ n e election of Mr. Lynch was made unanimous, and that gentle man was called to the chair and spoke as follows: Gentleman of the Convention—I feel that I ought not to say that I thank you for the distinguished honor that you have conferred upon me, for 1 do not. Nevertheless, from tne standpoint that no patriot should fail to lespond to the country's call, and that no loyal member of his party should fail to comply with the demand of his party, I yield with' reluctance to four decision and assume duties of the position to wnicn j b u T a W assigned me. Every member of this conven tion who approached me on this subject wltbin the last few hours knows that this position was neither <».ip*pted nor desired by me. Ut therefore, there is any such thing as a man having honors thrust upon him you have an exemplification of It In this instance. [Laui tei and applause.] I came to this convention pose of securing the-defeai speeches of the entire convention, thatof George William Curtis of New York arousing the wildest enthusiasm. Mr. Curtis said: GENTLEMEN OF THE CONVENTION—A Republican and a freeman I came into this convention ; by the grace of God, a Republican and a freeman I will go out of this convention. [Cheers.] Twenty-four years ago I was here in Chicago. [App'lause.] Twenty-four years ago I took part with the men of this country wno nominated the man who bears the most illustrious name in the Republican party and the brightest ray in whose halo of glory is that he was the great emancipator. [Cheers and cries of *'Good!" "Good!"] In that convention, sir, a resolution was offered In amendment of the platform. It introduced into that platform certain words from the ueclaration of independence. That man was voted down in that convention, and Joshua R. Giddings of Ohio rose from his seat and was passing out of the convention. As he went to pass my chair I reached out my hand—well nigh a boy"and unknown to him. I said: "Sir, where are you going?" He said to me: "Young man, I am going out of this convention, for I find there is no place In a Republican ConrentloP for an anll- 6lavery mao like me.'1 Well gentlemen after this he stopped and again took his seat, and before the convention concluded the Republican party declared that no word, no deed, no sign should ever be made in a Republican convention that in the slightest degree reflected upon the honor or the loyalty of the men who took Dart in that convention and upon their adhoion to Hberty. [Loud Applause.] The gentleman who was last upon the floor dared any one upon this floor to vote against the resolution. I say to him in reply tbe presentation of such a resolution in such a convention as this is a stigma, an insult, upon every man who stands here. This question is not a new question. Precisely the same motion was brought up at the last convention, and a man from West Virginia, I honor his name, that man said, in the face of the roaring galleries and in the face of all this concourse, this mau from West Virginia saldr "I am a. Ke- Eublican who carries his sovereignty under Is own hat." [Loud applause] Now, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Campbell's position in that convention, the wise reflection, the aforethought of the Republican convention of 1SS0, under the lead of that great immortal leader whose face fronted us there, James A. Garfield of Ohio [applause], under the lead of Garfield I remind my frieuds from California that the convention, taking its action, induced the gentlemen wno presented the resolution to with- ^raw-that-re-sOkrtitHi from the consideration of the convention. Now, sirr in the light of the character of the Republican party, in the light of the action of the lust Republicau convention, the first convention of which I have known In which, such a plolgc was required of the members, I ask this convention, mindful of all that hangs upon the wisdom, the moderation, the tolerance and patriotism of our actiou; I beg this conventl u to remember Lincoln, to remember Gardeld, to remember the very vital principles of the Republican party, and assume ttat every man here who is an honorable man, will vote this resolution down, which phoulu rever-have appeare-i in ft Republican convection as unworthy to be ratified by this coii course of free men that I see before me. [Applause]. Mr. hawkins withdrew his resolution. Several other resolutions were introduced, all of which were referred to the committee on resolutions. The committee on permanent organization Lnnounced the election of Gen. John B.,-ttcnas permanent, chair Providing that no person shall be a member of the national committee who is not eligible to a seat in the electoral college. The rules «« amended were read and adopted. The committee ou resolutions presented the following platform: TJu &tfu.bllcans of the United States, in national convention assembled, renew their a!' leglance to the principles upon which they have triumphed in six successive presidential elections, and congratulate the American people upon the attainment of so many results iu legislation and administration by which the Republican party has, after saving the union, done so much to under its institutions just, equal aud beneficent, the safeguard of liberty and the embodiment of tne best thought and highest purposes of our citizens. The Republican party has gained Its strength by quick and faithful responses to the dec of the people for the freedom and n all men, for a united nation, asst rights of all citizen*; for the elevatl labor; lor an honest currency; for legislation, and for Integrity and accoui ity In all dej.'arts*eiits of the government; and it uccepts anew the duty of leading iu the work of progress and reform. We lament the t'leath of President Gartield, wliqse sound statesmanship and loug continuance iu congress,- gave promise of a stroug and successful administration, a promise fully realized during the short oerlod of his office of President of the United Slates. His distinguished success lu war aud peace endeared him to the hearts of the American people. In. the administration of President Arthur, we recognize a wise, conservative and patriotic policy under which the couptrj has been blessed with remarkable prosperity, and we believe his eminent services are entitled to And will receive the hearty approval of every citizen. It is the first duty of a good government t o protect the rights and promote the interests of Its own people. The largest diversity of industry is moft productive of general prosperity and of the comfort and independence 01 the people. We, therefore,, demand that the imposition of duties on foreign imports shall be made not "for revenue only," but that In raising the requisite revenues for the government, such duties shall be so levied as to afford securityitg._ o_ur.jilverbified industries and protec- 'ltn--Announced toe eiectiu t a e aeTrson of Missouri s w -A-comprktee was-w conduct Mr^S^ndersbn tojtb« platform.

Our past history is the union preserved, slavery abolished and its former victims equally aud houorably by our sides of this convention: the public tilth maintained., unbounded credit at home and abroad, a currency convertible into.coin and the pulses of Industry throbbing with renewed health and vlg or iu every sect ion of a prosperous and peaceful country. Taese are the fruits of triumphs over adverse policies gained in the military and civil coutilets of the last 24 years. Out of these conflicts has ccnie a-race of heroes apd statesmen chlleugiug confidence aud love at home, respect auit admiration aoroad. And now when we come to celt ct a standard bearer for the approaching eonjiict our chief embarrassment is not in the waut, but in the abundance of presidential material. New York has her true and tried statesman, upon whose administration the tierce aud even unfrieudly litjht of public scrutiny has been turned and the universal verdict is, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant " Vermont has her great statesman, whose mind is as clear as as the crystal springs of his nativestate and w h * e virtue is as firm as its granite hills. Ohio can come with a mau whose his t o r y i s t h e history of the Republican party it Mali. Illinois can come with one who never failed in the discharge of public duty, whether in tae council chamber or on the field of battle. Maine has an honored favorite whose splendid abilities and personal •.unities have endeared him to he eartsjof his friends, and the brilliancy of whose genius challenges the admiratiou»6f all. Connecticut and Indiana may come with names scarcely less illustrious than these. And now, in conclusion, if because of personal disagreements or the emergencies of the occasion another name is sought, tbore remains that grand, old hero of Kenesaw mountaion and Atlanta. When patriotism calls he cannot, if he would, be silent; but gi asplng that banner, to him so dear, which he has already borne in triumph, he will march to a civil victory no less renouned than those of war. I thank you gentlemen, for this distinguished mark of your confidence. The convention adjourned until evening, when it sgain re-assembled. The only business transacted was the introduction of resolutions which were"referred. A resolution was Introduced asking that tickets of admission be granted to a number of veterans who were anxious to witness the proceedings. The motion when put to vote was defeated. Atr the conclusion ofaorne, other immportant business the convention adjourned until lu o'clock Thursday. WOKK ON THE RESOLUTIONS. The sub-committee on resoIuTTons having completed their work reported to the full committee at 3 o'clock iu the afternoon. The resolutions as repor.ed were readin order for debate ,aud . approval. The session lusted four hours aud adjourned without completing the platform. Tbe principal poiut of discus-ion was understood to be the tariff plank aud it was finally recommitted to the tub committee with instructions to report to the full committee at ,(J: 30 to-morrow morning. It is said the difference of opinion is not serious aud will be readily settled at a meeting to be held later this evening. The resolution will contain a strong indorsement of President Arthur's administration; declare for civil service reform; favor an efficient navy aud a yigorous tariff plank. MAUONE VICTORIOUS. The committee on credentials, after a loug consideration of testimony and hearing oi arguments, decided to admit th-s Mahone delegation by a unanimous vote. The opinion of members of the convention has been divided as to whether this decision which was expected would~be"que6Tl6hed when the report was rei.- dered. It is claimed by some thut Dezendorf knows-nothing about letting go. The admittlng of each delegation means twelve votes for Blaine, hence they reason Dezendorf can "find a respectable backing and put his rase to a final test. Others held that the delegated authority of the committee will be respected. This claim Is now strengthened by the fact that there is no minority report upon which to base diecueslon and that partisan feeling evidently could not have influenced the result. A REVIEW OF THE DAY. The proceedings of the day, while cuarac terized by great earnestutsb and keen watch fulness to detect any evidences that the tide waa turning in any direction were uot prolific in dramatic incidents for the reason th>it a large share of the session was occupied bv the routine of calling the'roll of the convention and election of temporary chairman. This part of the proceedings was only relieved from monotony by glimpses of personal characteristics and phases of feeling exhibited by members of the convention as they rosebne at a time to announce their personal or political preferences for temporary chairman. THURSDAY, JUNE 5. 1 The; fourth wsHloubf-thtj National Rapublican Convention was opened by prayer by Bishop Fallows nf llhlnago. .... Mr. Henry Ballsrd of Vermont, chairman of the committee ou credentials, reported that the committee had been in session all through the night and bad completed Its labors, which were entirely harmonious. All contests had been satisfactorily settled, and unanimous reports had been received from eyery state and territory. The report was read by Mr. Fort of New Jersey. It contained nothing of interest to the convention until Ruger and Piper were seated in the Second Illinois. When it was announced that the whole of Mahonc's delegates for Virginia had been seated there was applause from the Arthur men. The sitting delegates and contestants for the New York Nineteenth district were given a one-half vote each and all seated. The report was as has been anticipated from day to day; Mrr. Stewart of PenLS} fvania moved the adoption of the report with its recommendation. Carried. A special committee of the general committee on rules then submitted the majority report of the committee on rules in regard to repreeentatlou in future conventions. It provided that each state have four delegates at large, one for each congressional district, and two delegates iu.each district and territory. The minority report recommended that each state have four delegates at large, one delegate at large for--each- congressman-at large in each territory and the LMstrict of Columbia, two delegates at large; each congressional district one delegate, and one additional delegate for each 10.C00 republican votes ca*t at the preceding presidential"election. Strong opposition to the adoption of the minority report was so manifest that t h e n port was withdrawn, and the majority report unanimously adopted. k l ^ o Djadfes Jtself to the repMloI The report of the committee ou rules and tip^'coutalutd iu the arrears act order pf business was in the main a tiupltcati report of that which was adopted^by the^last convention.

Balloting. *• t This amendment-was adopted. legate Saunders of Montana offered a furttttramendmeot to TUIC 10: tion to the rights and wages of the laborer, to the end that active and intelligent labor, as well as capital, may have its just award, and the laboring man bis full share in the rratfOnal prosperity. Against the so-called economic Bystem of the Democratic party, which would degrade our labor to the foreign standard, we enter our earnest protest. The Democratic purty has failed completely to relieve the people of the burden of unnecessary taxation oy a wise reduction of the shrplus. The Republican party pledges Itself to correct the Inequalities of the tariff, and t 0 reduce the surplus, not by the vicious aiul indiscriminate process of "horTzontal reductions," but by such methods as will relieve tbe taxpayers without injuring the labor, or the groat • productive interests of the country. \S'c recognize the importance of sheep husbandry iu the United 8tate8; the -serious dcpre'ssioatwhich it if, now experiencing and the danger threatening its future prosperity, and we therefore respect the demands of the representatives of this important agricultural interest for a readjustment of' duty upon foreign wouJ, in order tbat BUCII industry shall have lull and adequate protection. We have alwujs recommended the best money kuowu to the civilized world, and we urge tint effort should be made to unite all commercial nations iu the e3ta>biishment of an international staudard which shall fix for nil tlie relative v.tiue of gold and silver coinage. i'he regulation of commerce with foreign nations and between the states Is dne'ofttremost Important prerogatives of the general Rovemment, and the Republican party distinctlyannounces its purpose to support such legli-- latlon as will fully and efficiently carry out the constitutional power of congress over inter-state commerce. The prlnctple of the public regulation of railway corporations is a wise and salutary one for the protection of all classes of the people,, and we lavcr legislation that shall prevent unjust discrimination and excessive charges for transportation, and that shall secure the people and the railways alike the fair and, equal protection of the laws. We favor the establishment of a uatlouial bureau of labor, the enforcement of the eight hour law,a wise and judicious system of general education by adequate appropriation from the national revenues wherever the same is needed. We believe that everywhere the protection to artisans of American birth mitst be secured to citizens by American adoptioD,and we favor the settlement of national differences by international arbitration. The Republican party, having its birth in a hatred of slave labor, and a desire that all men may be truly free and equal, is unalterably opposed to placing our working men in competition with any form of servile labor, whether at home or abroad. In this Bpirlt we denounce the importation Of contract labor, whether from Europe or Asia, as- an offense against the spirit of American institutions, and we pledge ourselves to sustain the present law restricting Chinese Immigration, and to provide such further legislation as is necessary to carry out its purpose. The reform of tbe civil service,, seriously begun under a-republican admlslstration, should be completed by a further extension of the reformed system already established by law to all the grades of the service to which it is applicable. The spirit and ^urpo«e of tbe reform should be observed in all txecutiveappointments, and all laws at variance with the object.3 of existing reform legislation should be repealed, to the end that the dangers to free iDstitutions-wfhlea-^urk In the power-of official patronage may be wholly and effectively avoided. The public la ads are a heritage-of4ha-people— of tbe United States, and should be reserved as far as possible for small holdings by actual settlers. We are opposed to the acquisition of a large tracts of these lands by corporations of individuals, especially where such holdings are in the hands oi non-resident alienB, and we will endeavor to obtain such legislation as will tend to correct this evil. We demand of congress the speedy forfeiture of all land grants which have lapsed by reason of noo-compltance with acts of incorporation, in all cases where there has been no attempt ingood faith to perform the condition Of ..such grants. Th» grateful thanks of .the American people are due to the union B^ltersjrna sailors of the late war, and the republican party stands pledged to suitable pensions for all who were disableiL-for fho widows and orpuans of those who-rtird \yx the war. The republican party the limitaof 18T9, so hat a!l invalid soldiers shall share alike and their pensions begin with the date of their disability or discharge, and not with the date of* the application. The republican party favors a policy which shall keep us from entangling alliances with foreign nations, and whlcn gives us the right to expect that foreign nations shall refrain from meddling In American affairs—the policy which seeks peace, can trade wlto all powers, but especially with thoso of the wostern hemisphere. We demand the restoration of our navy to its old time strength and ettJeh ncv, that it may in any sea protect the rlghis of American citizens and the interests of American commerce, and* we call upon congress to remove the burdens_under which American shipping has been depressed, so that it may agalu be true that we have a commerce which leaves no sea unexplored, and a navy which takes no la* from superior f< >rce. {Continued on tizthpagt.) « .

A MAINE R O M A N C E . ,4 J t a i y in the first part of the last ceni t ^ y there lived in Wells, Mo., a farno- \M n a m e d Forbush. He made a clearfcg, as it was called, built a log hut, married, and cohimeneed life in earnest. The Indians were troublesome, driving off cattle, burning crops, etc., but as yet they had not ventured very near the settlement, openly. Two children, twin sisters, werp born to them. While they were babies in the cradle, their mother went into the cow yard one morning to milk the cows, when she was seized by an Indian, her handkerchief torn from her neck and jammed into her mouth to keep lier from screaming so as to arouse the neighbors, and her hands tied behind her preparatory to cairying her away. Next, a'whoop was uitcred to attract the husband's? attention. He seized his gun a i i d r a n torescue his'wife, only to be smitten down "'by—*a blow from the tomahawk anil loft for.dead. They next ransacked the house, taking what they wanted, such as blankets and provisions, but omitting to kill, or overlooking, the babies in the cradle. They then set lire to the house, which was seen by the settlers, who immediately went to their relief. I h e y f o u n d the man still living, though senseless. They staunched his bleeding wounds, then wont to the burning house7XndTrrT.he midst of the fire and smoke they could see the cradle with its living household treasures in it. With almost superhuman efforts, and at the-risk of their own lives, thecradte- " was rescued from the burnins house. The children had been tucked so closely under the covers that they were still sleeping securely where their mother had placed them. Their names were Dorothy andPrrrebe Forbush.—Dolly, as she a'as called, mairied John Dennett, and Phoebe married Elisha Littlelield This narrative I obtained from him iu _m^nusctipt form. After 20 >eair> absence, t h e " poor, weary, worn mother of the little t.vin girls made her appearand) at tho same spot where she had been captured. By.t oil! howjuhanged. Instead of the dense forest or huge stumps around the door, beautiful meadows waved their golden grain, and a good substantial house covered tbo samtreeliar^vv-bere her own had formerly stood. As she gazed intently on the scene before lier, the well with its tall sw4lep and oaken bucket caught hor attention— the same old wel 1 she had helped her husband dig long years ago. Then turning to see the little rivulet that flowed along at tho foot of the hill on which the house Stood, there, also, changes met her view. A lara;e sawmill had' been erected, and immense piles of lumber, with their uncouth dimensions, adorned what was the beautiful green, hillside of her girlish fancy. But she, thinking that her husband Presentation to the Supreme Court. After the motion docket had been disposed of iu tho Supreme Courtihe other morning Hon, Otto Kirchner of Detroit presented to the court a striking and exceedingly woll executed portrait of Judge Isaac P. Christiancy. The portrais is the work of Mr. L . T . Ives of Detroit, and is a remarkably good likeness. Judge Christiancy has been emto socuro.this fair white woman for a bride. The baby was brought to her «hv the iahuman wretch, whom arm had Wen prostrate hor noble, youthful husband to the ground, and then had seen him set lire to the hut, in which her own darlings wore happily sleeping face to face. The poor mother could not at iirst touch tnis little black thing; but its cries soon brought her to herself. She saw in it a deliverance fifom present death at least, and accepted it as sent from Heaven--for hard, as her lot seemed, still she could'not but believe that God was over all. While the settlers were trying to save what they could from the tire and all were busy, tho Indians skulked back into the deep forest, taking her along with them. They turned westward, commenced their we*ry inarch through tho wilderness, stopping by night only long enough to cook what little venison they could trap or otherwise secure on their way. After long months of weary travel over broad forests whose silence had never been broken by the sound of human voice save by the Indian's, and where railroads and canals now carry their thousands, crossiug streams of water in canoes where steamboats now go, they,at last reached the great lakes, their home. There, then, must be her future home. After she had learned some of their language, enough to understand what the old savage meant, he came to her and demanded her to become his] wife. This she refused to do, and preparations jwere made to roast her alive. Still she was firm. After frightening her all they could they- released hereto endure still greater sufferings. But time passed on, and the" aged chief fell in battle. His sons hunted forkeiTand treated her kindly, but they refused to ^ranthor her liberty. Tlie baby boy, her -adopted- child, grew to be a man in stature, obeying and loving her as a"son. ' it was the bright spot in her existence T h e , , . .

He entered upon its duties in J a n u a r y of the following year, ami adorned this court from that time until the winter of 187.5, when he 'resigned to enter the Senate of the United States. His opinions, scattered through thirty volumes of the cilicial reports of this court, are his most enduring monument. No more words can add to its glory. His brothern of the bar, impelled by a desire to testify their high appreciation of his worth afld to keep green his memory in the place where as a J u d g e he achieved distinguished snecess, have caused his portrait to bo painted to be presented to this coiut, " I n obedience to -their expressed wishes ami in accordance with my own as"1 well, 1 ask your—honors to accept 1 he picture and give h a permanent place upon the wails of this room.'* In accepting the picture Chief Justice Cooley spoke as follows: -—^T-h-o court lake great pleasure in receiving the very tine portrait of their them how to cook, and nursed them when they were sick, and was considered by them to be a sort of medicine woman, or magician, as they called her, She might have been happy in her rude wigwam home if the dreadful scene of her capture could have been obliterated from her memory.

T h e Zulu L a n g u a g e . Cincinnati News-Journal. Rev, Wm. Mellen has lately arrived in Cincinnati from Africa, where he has spent twenty-four years among the Zulus and other African tribes, wnose languages he speaks with fluency. Some of the features of those languages are curious and interesting. The first curious fact is that contiguous tribes speak, not as with our , aborigines, different vernaculars of the same, but altogether distinct languages. The only feature indicating the probability that they ever spoke the same language is found in the fact that every Word is either a vowel or begins and ends with a vowel. Considered as a system, he says that the Zulu language is far more perfect than any language of Europe, or perhaps of the East, He further says there are but five classes within one of which every word falls. Xot only does every word consist of or begin and end with a pure vocal element, but the accent, whether falling upon* the penult or anti-penult, is perfectly uniform forail clarses of words. He mentions it as peculiar that their language has exactly the same number of elementary sounds as our own, and indeed thesamd souud's sic-.ve four. They Lave no^arr, see, ex or z<?. ' For these there are several kinds of clicks formed by the tongue in different positions, resembling the smacking of the lips.

" When Maine was reached the entire assemb l e arose and in one voice tdiouted the name of Blaine. Such a scene of excitement as folio wed-coTitdtje witnessed no where else but in a national convention. It was nearly ten minutes before order was restored, and the chairman was enabled to introduce Judge West of Ohio, the "blind orator." Judge West spoke, with all the vigor and fire of Demosthenes, and never was an orator listened to more attentively than was Judge West, as. he presented the name.of that representative man of Maine.

Uoston '1 lanscript. A r t of Grafttaff. Every farmer's boy should learn to graft. Fovv occupations give more pleasure or ;t jjceitjr reward. T o convert a wild"and thorny tree into one bearing l a r g o and delicious fruit is a wonderful Tind fascinating process. Grafting need a o t be confined to fruit trees. Ornamental trees a n d shrubs which are neaily related to each other may bo srarklnds of-TosesTiiayije* grown on the same loish, and differently colored lilacs may bo mixed on the same stock. Graftingjs an easy art to acquire. Simply making the scions live is but a part of tbe operation on fruit tr^es, however. One must plan for the future top of the trees. He must graft such limbs as shouldv~make permanent factors in the top he is building, and while he should avoid grafting too many limbs, he should likewise rid grafting too few. I n either extreiue too much cutting for the good of the tree will have to bo done. If too few limbs are grafted, it will bo neoessary to cut too many branches oil' entirely '-during the process of grafting. If l o o many limbs are grafteii.it will be ii«<;e.ssarv to cut many of them o a t in a few years to prevent crowding. It must by remembered that a grafted branch will occupy more room than a '.natural branch, for the .scions branch and bush out from the point of the;.r insertion, liow many limb.->, and which ones, to graft may be learned by experience and judgment. The kiud of grafting most likely to be practiced on the farm is that known. _as cleft grafting. The process is a simple one. Saw oft the limb to be grafted where it is an inch or less in diameter; trim :iie edges of the " s t u b " smooth, and split it with a large knife, or a e i e a \ e r made for tho purpose^ The cleft shouldoot be more than four inches deep at the mwst. A wedgo is now inserted in the center of tho cleft, and a scion, is sot on each side of the Stub, The scions are made of twigs of last year's growth. They should bo cut before the trees show a n y signs of "starting in tto—spring. W h e n the scion is prepared ready for setting it sh'oul contain about three buds. The Jjower end is cut wedge shaped bv>tfclng off each side of the s c i o n - j Q i f o n e side of this wedge-shapojUKJflion, and midway between itsjorraud bottom, should be left on£^efthe buds. the-jscion is set this bud wiL- )e deep down in the side of the clef>in the stub, and will be covered T^ith wax but being nearer the source of nourishment it will be the most apt of any buds to grow, and it will readily push through the wax. The scion is set into ~~the cleft by exercising great care that the inner surface of the bark in the scion exactly matches the inner surface of the bark on the stub. A line be- ' tween the bark and the wood may be observed. This line on the scion, in either works, should match this Jine_ou the stub. Wax the whole over carefully a n d thoroughly. D o not leave anv crack e x p o s e d , W a x which is pretty hard, and which must be worked and applied with the hands is commonly best. We have given several good recipes for grafting wax. We would recommend that grafting be not con- —fined—to the orchard. Experiment. Try pears and apples on wild crabs and tnbrng. One must not look for success on trees much different from the scions, but there is room for experimenting, ^ d more light is needed. - — • — — — — • • » T h e C o r s e t . Good Words. As long ago as the days of Greeks and Romans'a slight,' clancee figure w a s admired and stoutness looked upon as a deformit)7. Martial ridiculed fat women and Ovid p u t large waists in the first rank of his remedies against love. Several means were tried "then, as now, not only to restrain an expanding figure, but to enhance the beauties \ of a Very slight one. But they were of • L i i f f e r e n t kind from those with which ^ P L are- familiar. Bandages were worn with the generic name of faseire mamillarcs. These consisted of the strophium, the cloth worn round the bosom: the tenia, a simple band below; and the zona or waist-belt. When the bandages failed, those who valued tho beauty of their figures had recourse to & remedy prescribed by Serenns Sammonious. They enveloped their bu&ts with garlands of ivy which were thrown on t n e fire as soon as withdrawn, and afterward rubbed all the uppdr part of their figures either with fcoose fat mixed with warm milk, o r with the egg of a partridge. Men were as vain as the wojoelf, if we believe Arisiophanfes andrtSfherwriters. T h e great comia4ramati8t mocked his contempbra^y^Cinesias for wearing" busks o n i a d e u - w o o d ; and Capitolinus, inhi»H5lography of t h e Emperor. Antony,- mentions that he also .had r e - I course to them to compress his swellingl figure. Testimony is conflicting, how-1 ever. Some contend that the ancients wore. YfiriLable xoraets^ arguing that, when Homer, in describing J u n o ' s toilet when she wished to captivate Jupiter speaks of the two girdles worn around her waist —the one bordered with} gold fringe, tho other borrowed from Venus —he was really describing a Greek corset; and that the egide or curiiss of Minerva which Virgil describes in to bo interpreted in the same manner But this view is surely mistaken,, for no monument of antiquity, no artistic work, no ^evidence gleaned from1 other sources, point to the use of sfcift, unyielding, whalebone corsets.

That gentleman was horn at Saintes in 1738, and died in Paris in 1814. He was; prpfJ*SC* of anatomy and physiology, ami-being an authority on all sanitary questions, he was a kind of standing counsel bn all these matters. He exposed the charlatanism of the divining rod, and with F r a n k h a made a joint report, in 178-1, to the Constituent Assembly, of which he was a member, against the reputed miracles of Mesmer. Ho did hot invent the guillotine, as it popularly believed; but be nearly was executed by it as he was. arrested during the Uesfn of Terror, and escaped, like so many others, by the fall and execution of Kobespierre. His political enemies, the royalists, called the machine after him; the name stuck, and saddened the poor doctor's remaining years. I n his memoirs, he never alludes even to that instrument. The doctor pioposed to the Assembly, that since tho law declared equality bore the executioner, a mode of punishment ought to be devised where all would be executed alike. Till then, the nobles had the privilege to be decapitated by the ax or sword, and that forfeit of life carried with it no disgrace to the victim's family. The : plebs were hanged, and that death was associated wilh infamy. Dr. Guillotine,* addressing the Assembly, advocating for purely philanthropic reasons the rapid dispatch of the condemned, said. "With my instrument 1 ca"n whip oil' vDur head in the twinkling of an eye, aud without your fee ling the l e a s t ' p a i n . " Explosions of laughter followed, and the poor doctor was caricatured unmercifully. I t was a colleague of the school of medicine, Dr. Louis, that was called upon to report upon a •machine made by a German named^ehmid for decapitation. I t w a s ^ e x p e r i - mented upon at Bicel^e; on corpses, cats, dogs, rabbitsr"poultrv, etc,, and pronounced^-^umirable. Schmid received>- piitent to supply the machine Jpr-tfie departments, a t "eight hundred and twenty-four pounds" each; out of gratitude lie ' baptized it <4Louisetto," but the name did not take, no more than thaj, of "tbe national razor," or the "Wiudmill of Science." In the slang of tho prisons, it is called "The Widow." The, inventorofltieguillotine is unknown; possibly it is lost in the night of time, or, dates from China. According to-gomo old engravings, an instrument tfot unlike it has been known in Scotland in the sixteenth century; a variety of the machine exists in Italy, called mannaija, and beyond doubt .'-Ltk.at was the instrument employed to decaditate the Due Henride Montmorency, in 1632, in Languedoc. T h e ax was cumbersome a n d cruel; tw_o blows were required to sever the head of Mary, Queen of Scots, four for Monmouth, and seven for De Tbau. PENSIONS.

It is well known t h a t it is nothing u n u s u a l for a road to freeze to the depth of four feet or more, especially in hard clay ground, and that when frost has penetrated to t h e depth of from two to three feet below a tile or iron drain through which water passes, it is merely a question of time when ice will form in the pipe sufficient to burst a n y t h i n g made of either clay or iron. Even the heavy sewer pipe used by the Railroad, Co. when properly covered and sodded to the end, have burst and broken in pieces - from the same cause. The above I consider a simple statement of t h e facts in the case. H a v i n g sold during the past four years a great many mues of tile, anti every drain giving satisfaction so far as heard from, I consider that fact, in connection with the above statement a sufficient guarantee of their quality and durability. — Alex.

The Democratic party of the south would be obliged ip acknowledge me as a Democrat, .the colored man would know me as a friend, and the relations are not incompatible so that I can't see why even as firm a Republican as yourself might not feel justified, ^as you Bay you would be, In voting for me. iii renewing my thanks, I am very truly your friend and servant.

''Adventures! Land! W h a t could happen a feller drivin' along the road a—ndi _m:i„n^d:i„nt 0 j n j g business s t e ady? " Evidently I had been too direct in my question. I must try another bait. " Y o u didn't drive all winter, I suppose?" "No, you better believe 1 didn't! I took a mail c ontract one year, and after snow come 1 carried the bag on a pungjDj^a hoss back, as the case might be. Once in a while I footed it, when there was a thick crust. 1 had shoes, and 1 didn't weigh in them days as much as I do n o w . " — "Trwa' n't but once a week ther' was any mail, and folks were skerce u n here winter times. Now and then ther' was a house in the intervalse, and the folks were no great letter-writers at that. Newspapers was took, for they giv© us all the news we had. There was Plymouth J o u r n a l and such' like come to one m a n and another, and was lent around considerable to them t h a t couldn't pay for ' e m .

There was most always some to come home for that, and go back p Sat'day. So wo called the Sat'day after Thanksgivin' younger; the children that had come between, t h e m h a d died, three in one week and two in the next, of canker sore t h r o a t Nancy was up to Upper Bartlett to Eer aunt's so she didn't ketch it. They reckoned ' t w a s fetched to the house by some travelin' folks that had a dreadful sick baby, and persuaded Mis' Mills to take ' e m in one night, when a thunder storm overtook them in amongst the hills. " T h a r ' wasn't a great m a n y young fellers in them parts, but what t h e r ' was all eomebuzzin'round '1 AabMillsea' like bees onto a thistie-head. But Nancy didn't take up with any of 'em and jest suited her folks. They wouldn't p a r t with her for the hull world, they used to say, " B u t gals is gals, and if thev shake off the bees, they'll be sweet to a butterfly as often as not. And they're just like some hosses that you c a n ' t drive with a whip no"«way; b u t you can talk and ooax of 'em into a boghole— ef you know-how. " T h e r e came along up to Bartlett the summer that Nancy was twentyo n e a dredful spry young city feller, to paint pictures and sech', a real highflyer he was, smart as a whip, clinibin' 1 everywhere, and drawin' out things to * the life; trees a n d brooks a n d rocks. Why, y o u ' d think yqu heered the water bubblin' and dancin' and tumbin' over the stones, and the wind squealin' in the piney woods, when you see 'em, they was so everlastin' n a t u r a l . : " N a n c y she come up to her Aunt Marcy's, and she fell in with this feller mighty quick. Fact is, be see her to meetin', and,was took at once. No wonder, for she was prettier'n a posy, and a sight to behold any day, particular when she got on her Sunday "bunnet with a pink ribblh on to it, and a pink gown and White cape, as t a s t y as an apple blow. " H e was smart, loo, and more than common good lookin'; eyes as keen as a h a w k T a n d shiny black hair curlin' onto his head, straight, slim aw set up. 1 tell ye, Nancy set by the ground he stepped on before long. "Well, 'twas the old story. Her folks got word somehow or 'nother—a bird in the air'll carry such matters, ye know—that she was keepin' company with Mr. foil Shattuck, a Boston feller; and 'Liah Mills, he was mad. You J9e.e he h a d n ' t no great faith in city folks. Ther' was some hard ones, como up summers to tao mountains^ under t h e idee that a m o ^ s t the woods, w-h«e there w a s n ' t no, great of folks, they could do as they was a mind to, and they did; and 'twan't real good behavior," now I tell ye! So 'Liab got sot against that sort, and when be heered Nancy was keepin1 company with Shattu ck he rared right up. "And he did t' 3 most onpolitic thing he" could. . He whisked u p to Mis' Marcy's, and he tore round like alLpossessed, and fetched Nance hum quick" s n , ° * r a 3 she CL'uld bundle her clothes up, and kept her tight as a string night and day, a-settin' his shotgun close to the door, and forbiddin~her so... much as to have said much more about him if he'd been t h e 'Postle Poll. They told how well off h e was, and what a big house hi* folk* had. They said he fetched homo a beautiful young gal from the mountains, and put her right in his mother's house, for to be t a u g h t music and sech, and had married her, and ^ hat a lucky girl she was, and how ever he was, and no end of talk. I tell you I was glad to hear Nancy wasn't in no trouble. "Well, come the day but one before Thanksgiving, I was down to Plymouth with the stage and six hesses, for I mistrusted there'd be fall in' weather, and may-be a hard-pull, and I was goin' through the Notch up to Crawford's; wel!—what do you thmk?—who should come u p and get into the stage when I was ready next day but Poll Shattuck a n d Nancy!

Well, the upshot was that Nancy, after tellin' aer mother she was goin', ran away one d a r k night; ran with Poll Shattuck on a buckboard down to Plyniouth.and so was off. "She sent weird Lu hei mother that she was married, and I heefd afterward t h ^ t Mis' Mills got it; but she ne7or heard from Nancy again.

Culinary Intelligence* Lovers of brown bread should have a tin made on purpose for it, round and tall, with a closely fitting cover. In this genuine brown bread should be baked slowly for four hours. When you wish to bake pie erust for tarts, the fruit or jelly to be added afterward, prick the paste a number of times with aHferk to prevent its * m n g o u t of shape while baking. When paring apples for pies or sauce, first cut them into quarters. The skin may be easily removed from each piecd, and impe^eciiojas and worm-holes are brought to view. ocoanut is considered by some cooks a delicate and pleasing addition to ice cream. It should be freshly gfated and be added to the cream and sugar, or custard, just before freezing. Pork steaks may be eaten with relish H when they are being fried you scatter pepper and salt and powdered sage over them. Serve with current jelly or jam on the platter beside them. Sugar biscuits are m a d e , a s follows: One 'pound of butter, two pounds of flour, one pound of sugar, one cup of milk, one taaapnonfnl of soda, one tablespoonful of cinnamon. Rub the butter into the flour and add the cinnamon; dissolve the soda in the milk, mix with the sugar, and work the whol6 to a stiff dough; knead, cut into round cakes an inch thick; lay.in buttered pans and bake in a ^uick oven. Coffee cakes.—Three cups of bread sponge, one-half cup of butter, two tablespoonfuls of sugar, two eggs. Roll thin, cut as for biscuits; sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon and bits of butter. egg. Leather bindings of books m a y also be cleansed by this method. Whitp Roman bindings should be washed with a soft flannel saturated in soapsuds. Some experienced housekeepers say the only safe way to k e e p your T u r k e y . rugs in good order is to have them dip-' ped in naphtha before rolling them u p for t h e summer; this is always a good * plan when you buy rugs at auction or those imported as antiques. Dust &md clean your silk dresses with a piece of old velvet or plush, formed into a convenient shape to handle. If creases have been formed in a si Ik g a r m e n t which has been laid by, a remedy m a y be foun d in hanging the Bake slowly.

It is stdd that the workmen assented with cheers to the generous proposition. LOUISVILLE has set in force an ordinance prohibiting the sale of Police Gazettes and indecent papers.» It is one of the encouraging signs of the times to sea municipal authorities taking an active part in the suppression of -the sale and circulation of this not only trashy, but absolutely vicious literature, and the example set by Louisville ought to be imitated by every village" and city in this broad land.

Take time to do whatever task you are enfaeed in to your complete satisfaction, always fnal lik« kicking a lazy man. and if I set out on a journey I can't go fast enough, but this- impatience-has THaviekding educational question of the hour is how shall our public schools be directed so that they shall jjiost efectually aid the cause of labor? Special schools for tho promotion of the fine arts are much to be desired; but above and beyond them, and of paramount importance, stand educational institutions in which the millions of boys and girls growing up into manhood and womanhood shall have opportunities for familiarizing theraselves,Ub some cxteDt, at least, with the practical duties of life. TEN years ago a penniless man, with a peculiarly shaped head, made a bargain with a London professor of anatomy by which the latter was to have tho head on payment of the man's funeral expenses. Meanwhile the man became wealthy, and when he died the,-other day his friends tried to avoid fulfilling the contract. But the professor insisted, and the matter is to bo brought before the law courts. Pending the decision, the defunct gentleman has been buried with his head on his shoulders. argues well for its influence in bringing many of the young hearts to Him who said "Forbid them not." MR. WILLIAM CHAPIN, principal of the Pennsylvania Institution for the Instruction of the Blind, relates how Mr. Blaine came to be a teacher there years ago. "He rang the bell at the front door of the building one summer afternoon in 1852 in answer to an advertisement for a~teacher. TFere~wero thirty or forty other applicants, but his manner was so winning and he possessed so many manifestly valuable qualities that I closed an engagement with him at once. His wife and little son Walker came here with him. He was principal teacher on the boys' side for two years. He taught mathematics in which he excelled, and the higher branches. His wife often read aloud tolhe pupils and was universally beloved." m THE Senate bill for counting the electoral vote which passed that body and is now .before the House provides that before the second Monday in January, which it tixe3 as the date for the meeting of the Electoral College, the state tribunals may decide any contest that may arise as to the appointment of electors, sueh determination being conclusive evidence of lawfulness, when Congress assembles to count the vote, In case the state tribunals have not adjudicated upon conflicting returns or two or more state jtribunals are in conflict over the disputed returns, the returns accepted by the two Houses of Congress voting separately/but agreeing concurrently, shall be valid. In the House an amendment has-becirl-o^lock supper. Our stores might open in EVEN cow hair has its commercial uses.

The average price of cow hair is four_-Ccnts a pound, but white cows' hair is worth 11 cents a pound. A WASHINGTON correspondent of the Detroit Plaindealer says. There are occasions when politics, like death, will reduce all men to a common level and in this resptct also a Washington political gathering may be somewhat unique, for side by side with the Cabinet officer, the judge and the senator i possible to find seated, as an equal political entity, the man who blaQks that cabinet officer's boots or brushes that senator's coat; and both may be heard to "orate" from the same rostrum. This however, is truly Amorioan, and nobody has the right to object. EX-SURROGATE Gideon J. Tucker of New York has attended every Democratic presidential election since 1840, except that of 1868, during whicJjftTe was in Europe. He personally saw Polk nominated at Baltimore in 1844, Cass at Baltimore in 1848, Pierce at Baltimore in 1852, Buchanan at Cincinnati in J 8 J 6 , Breckinridge at Richmond in 1850, McClellan at Chicago in 1864, Greeley at Baltimore in "1872, Tilden-At St. Louis in 1876, and Hancock in Cincinnati in 1880. He was a delegate to the conventions of 1856, 1860 and 1864, and traveled across the continent from Arizona to attend that of 1880.v made prorid;ng that the two Houses shall vote jointly, instead of separately, upon the returns; which, as a general -rule, would practically leave the ease to be settled by the votes of the House alone. A POPULAR New York preach«r who struggles to keep the wolf from the door on a beggarly salary of several thousand dollars a yearT has been granted a three month's leave of absence, and on Sunday, June 8, preached his last sermon previous to starting for Europe. In iiis closing remarks he lost me days of time and a good many dollars. If I want to make a shelf or bench I rush for the first handy board, saw it offhap-hazard, pound in any sort of nails in any sort of way, and when the job is complete I have a sholf which won't tit by A iug-ful, or a bench whit-h rests on three legs and holds up the other one as if it had a sore foot. I have taken the wrong_street car, lugged off other men's hats, left my change on store counters, bought sugar when I was told to buy butter, spoiled any number of boots, offended dozens of good men, and all because I wanted to save time. Don't rush. The older I grow the less I believe in the man who leaves a. cloud of dust behind him. He will be wrong half the time. He wiH- botch his work, upset the best calculation, and lose a dollar for every seventy-five cents he makes. A petulant, impatient boy makes a man who can't keep a friend. He will be obstinate, unreasonable, unforgiving 3Hd thoroughly despised. Don't argue that it is born in you and you can t help it. A boy can help anything if he has any sandinhis nature. He can exorcise patience or give away to fits of anger- which ought to be boot-jacked out of his nature to save him from the gallows. But you h'ate to bo bossed, en? Well, my boy, if we, could all do as we pleased this would be a tine country to live in. Our working men would get to their labor at 10 o'clock in the morning and quit in time for 5 Think of such bosh! We all like a brave man, buteven a boy of seven isn't green enough to believe in such statements.

She always entered, robbers' dens by a sower without being bitten by rats or getting AMONG other days observed by members of the Methodist Episcopal church, is that ot "Children's day" which occurs the second Sunday in June,tho observance of which brings much |joy to the hearts of the little one&,_ and gladdens, and makes young again even the white haired fathers and mothers in Israel whose earthly pilgrimage is near* ly over. On this day the services are wholly for tho benefit ^of, and participated in, almost exclusively by the children, and the readiness with which they enter into the work of preparation, and Uie joyousTress of ine occasion urged the members of his church to b© faithful in their- attendance at church, no matter if it was hot and uncomfortable, and their own church was closed. Then he denounced Sunday excursions ; for those who toiled hard all the week, and alluded to Sunday newspapers as belonging to ~lfie"deviI7and forbade tho reading of them. He closed his reniarks by saying that he expected to have an enjoy able time abroad, and asked them to remember him Jn their prayers. It is hoped that this pastor, whose conduct reaehes the acme of selfishness, can enjoy a lon^ idle tour abroad with theknowledge that his over-worked people, who right gladly gave of their means for his trip, are roasting and working at home, without even the privilege of enjoying God's pure air on Sunday. SAMMY LXNG WILLIAMS, a colored graduate of the Lapeer high school, has been awarded second prize for tho best general es3ay by Columbia university at Washington. Sammy was once a contraband slave and was brought north by Col. Lang, through whose generosity he was sent to school. After graduating with honors from the high school, he entered the university of Michigan, from which institution he graduated soon after. He then matriculated at Columbia university, and as stated has won for himself high honors at 'thai institution. At the time of his entrance in Columbia a good deal of bitterness was manifested by white students, some of whom went so far as to threaten to leave the institution if he was admitted. He was admitted, and has proven forcibly that men of brains are not confined exclusively to the white race, and that the descendants of the sons of Ham, so long in bondage and the "gall of bitterness" can rise above their former position, ajad with feet placed upon the *thraldom which bound them, claim recognition as part of the "universal brotherhood of man." Says an exchange: r"Gaii Hamilton looks overworked."Well, whyshouldn't she? It is no small job to "look after abeek your cousin is writing and superintend a Presidential boom at the. same time. It is a^wonder that Gail isn't sick in bed, poor overworked girl, —Feck's Sun. Weeds are the curce of all farms.

There's more moral po;son in one such story than you will get at the circus or theatre in five years. Better be unable to read at all that to imbibe such stuff. You hate a boy wholies to-yon.

If he is determined to be worth four he will soon be live. I sat down with a half dozen of you the other day, and the opinion of the majority was that employers didn't make any distinction between a smart, energetic boy and a drone. Don't be foolish, my lad. Nine employers out of. ten had much rather advance a boy than t&discharge him. A boy may not bo watched as closly as a man, because we make allowances for his inexperience and follies and trifling nature, but don't you forget that he is soon sized up.. If ho is respectful and truthful and honest the employer-who "doesaTrealize it and reward him is no man to work for. . Now let's talk a little further about the flashy literature I referred to a few weeks ago. I went the other day and bought a .stack of the stuff in order to see just what it was. When Qno comes to see the wretched stuff written and published in order to catch the attention of the boys of America he must wonder if we have any fathers among our lawmakers. There is a fellow in New York publishing a weekly sheet called the Young Men of America. Ho must think them a set of rascals or idiots. In one story he has a hunter who catches in his hand the bullets fired at him oy a dozen enemies, s»ndit Is no work at all for him to put fifty enemies to liight. We want such a man on tbo Detroit police force, but tho superintendent will have a long hunt to find him. In another he has a bny whip seven or eight mountain outlaws. The boy has probably died since. If this stuff was held out to you as pure fiction, you would be completely disgusted. These flashy publishers know this, and so they have these stories founded upon well-known facts and events which are matters of history. Is the paper I have mentioned is a story of the revolutionary war. It purports to be the adventures of Gen. Marion and his scouts. The injury here consists in historic lying. You are asked to accept everything as a fact, when not one single fact instated. As u specimen of what one of the scouts did when ho wp.sn't trying his best, I will mention that, being pursued by two British dragoons, he'let them fire four bullets into him at close range, before it occurred to him that it was a cold day. He then drew his sword and cut a right arm from tho body of each. He then rode away in search of root-beer or something else to cool his tongue; but hidn't cooled over half of it before six other .dragoons pitched into him. Tho first move he made to draw that same terrible toad<sticker and cut off two heads.^T^iBothbr~ftnnr fired at him, but his^brass turned tho bullets a^ide^jEHioThelopped of the head of thjj^ftird. The remaining three thereupon rushed into the woods, and e scout was kind enough not to pursue. Having cut off throe heads and two arms inside of half an hotfr, he felt tired. The Rev. I). Charles F. Deems at the Church of the Strangers in New York City put his congregation in a good humor on a recent Sabath morning by spying: "Now, boys and girls, somebodj nas taught you that it is a very improper thing for you to go to sleep in church. I have great respect for those teachers, but let me toll you something. During -this hot weather you fix up in the. morning to come to church, and when you get there everything goes as usual, t h e ; preacher's voice is just lhe~same, and by and by when the sermon is about half done you find yourselves feeling drowsy and it is hard work to keep your eyes open. Now, when you find yourselves in this condition go to sleep. I shan't blame you for it; neither will the Lord. The next best thing to close communion with God when you are awake is close communion with Him wKetTyou are fast asleep. But you musn't make a noise while vou sleep, do it quietly. I kr.ow there is one little boy among you who makes a good deal of noise, but ho doesn't intend to do it. I want to ask the person who sits next to that boy just to 'hunch' him a littl* when the noise begins—not hard enough to wake him, but just to stop the noise. There are sometimes n few old people in church who hear every sound whilo the sermon is going: on, and these noises disturb and worry them. Now let that be the rule during the summer—when you can't keep awake go to sleep." —, ^ D a m e FaHhlon'e F r e a k s . The hair is no longer worn in bangs reaching to the eyebrows.

Hear the olose of ono of the most trying of the few hot days of the present year a pale, care-worn woman might havo been seen at the dwelling apparently in •complete exhaustiou. meet tno aocuuaulated household had been great ce&ful, while the care of a window of her a condrtfywi of Her efforts to dutieg of her but unsucsick child, whose w a i b could even then be heard, was a i d e d to her otherwise overwhelm.-.. ih&*troubles. Nature bad! done much for her and in her youthful days she had been not only beautiful but the possessor of health such rw is seldom seen. B u t homo and family duties aud the depressing cares whioh too often accompany them had provHn greater than her splendid strength and she felt at that moment not only that life was a burden but that death would be a g r a n d relief. This is no unusual experience. It is in fact a most common, evoiy-day occurrence, and a sjreat prayer is constantly ascendiog from thousands of homes for deliverance from the deadly power which is euslaving so many wives, mothers, and daughters. And yet these duties of life must be met. No womsin can afford to turn aside from the proper care o T her home and the ones who are committed to her care, although in doing those duties she may saoriftce her health, and possibly life itself. The experience of one who successfully overcame such trials and yec retained health and—aHthe blessings it brings, is thus told by Rev. William Watsyo, Presiding Elder of the Methodist Episcopal church, residing at Watcrtown, N. Y. He said: ^M5 wife became completely run down through overwork and care of a sick member of our household, and I entertained serious apprehensions as to her' future. She was languid, pale, utterly exhausted, without appetite, and in a complete state of physical-decline. Ami yet sue did not, could not neglect her duties. L have seen her about tho house, t r \ i n g courageously to care, for the ones she loved when J could tell, from the lines upon her face how much she was suffering. At tinier she would rally for a day or Two and then fall back into th« state of nervous exhaustion she felt'before. Her head—pained her frequently, her body -was becoming bowed by pain and all hopo or enjoyment in" life seemed departed. What to do we could not tell. I resolved, bowever, to bring back her life and vitality if possible and to this end Began to treat her myself. To my great relief her system h a s been toned up, her strength restored, herhealth completely recovered, and wholly by the use of Warner's Tippecanoe,"which I regar* as-the-gr-catest tonic, invigorutor and stomach remedy that has ever been discovered. I was led to use it tho moro readily as I had tested tho healthrestoring properties of W a r n e r ' s Safe Cure in my own person and I therefore knew that any remedy Mr; Warner might produce would be a valuable one. I have since recommended both W a r n e r ' s Tippecanoe and Warner's Safe C u r e ^ o many of my friends and I know several Doctors of Divinity as well as numerous laymen who are using both with great benefit.v If all th# overworked and "duty-drivan women of America could know of the experience above described, and act upon the same, there cans be little doubt that much of the pain, and most of the depressing influences of life might be avoided. Such t r u t h s are too valuable to remain unknown. AGRICULTURAL NOTES. F a r m audi Garden* Watering the stock regularly U as necessary as regular feeding, especially in summer. Nebraska furnished the largest pair of cattle on exhibition at the Kansas City Fat Stock Show. i t e Fort Woith Gazette says the increased tax on cattle for 1883 over that of 1882 was $37,58T,235. Land that is too poor for clover will grow rye, and the rye plowed d o ^ n can Be followed by clover. It is an old proverb that a good farmer may be judged bv the manner in which h e keeps hm m a n u r e . — It is said that the average daily aliowauce of wheat for each peison is three and three-fourths bushels. The English shire horse dealers and importers in this country aae agitating the formation of an Amefican stud book. According to Dr. Wolff's tables average meadow hay and corn meal have a comparative value of about five to three for feeding stock. It is.said t h a t 21,000.000 acres of land are held in this country by foreigners^ half~of it being by three corporations in Texas and Florida. Fat pigs suffer greatly Trom the heat in summer. When yarded and access to water in which to roll in is denied, their yard should be partially shaded by trees. F. D. Curtis thinks the best seeding for an orchard is orchard gras?. The natural grasses will soon come in and make a fine sod. Orchards should be pastured, not mowed. ( A Connect iout sheep m a n is p u t with the asertion that poor fences have had moro influence in causing the decline in sheep husbandry in Now England than the dogs. In Illinois the conditionof the wheat crop is better than at the same time last year—The^estimated yield is .35 per cent, of an average crop for spring wheat, and 82 per cent, for winter. A corp of oorn is essential, on all farms upon whichstock is kept. Being extremely rich in carbon, it not only provides nourishment for growth but produces heat anu a fat aboye all other cereals. i t is shrewdly suggested that one reason why farm? do not pay their owners is that the farm does not owe them anything. There are no better investments for farmers than those made in the farm ftself. It is the estimate of an observing .Iter that about 75 per cent, of all the f* ptle in America are pure scrubs, with no infusion ivbatever of good blood. A large proportion of the grades, too, are a very inferior type. The New England Homestead says that present appearances indicate that the acreage of—potatoes-to- be p 1 anted this season will be much ltss than last. This is, of course, owing to the low priced which has prevailed all over the country the past season.. An Ohio farmer washes his apple trees every spring and fall with a strong lye that TwUI lloat an egg,: and finds it to bo sure death to tho borers. He claims that ho has not lost a tree since beginning tills practice, although ho had' lost several previously. Two main points in a good farm wagon are lowness, to save lifting; and The Kansas Farmer thinks deep working of growing corn is not good. It tears away roots that are -needed to hurry the growth of corn. And it tends to hasten evaporation. If g r o u r u is well prepared for planting, the shallowest working which keep the surface loose and destroy the weeds, is the best. I t is a mistake to run the teeth or shovels away down where the roots ou^ht to be enjoying absolute freedom. 1 H o w t o S » T « Money * y 3l and we might also say—time and pain as well, in our advice to good housekeepers and ladies generally. The great necessity •listing always to have a perfectly sate remedy convenient lor the relief and prompt cure of the ailments peculiar to woman—functional irregularity, constant pains, and all the symptoms aTferfdant upon uterine disorders—induces us to recommend strongly and unqualified Dr. Perce's "Favorite Perscription"—womlan's best friend. It wiflTave money. There are 81,717 clergymen and 17,267,878 church communicants in the United Stated a cut-under, for convenience in turning The latter, however, call3 for very low fore wheels, and the low wheels call for springs, to nndrfy the suddenness of the lift oyer obstacles. The best and the only way to grow cbeap corn—is-to increase the yield per pcre. There ia_a fixed cost in growing an acre of grain, let the yield be what it may, and every bushel than can be added to the yield per acre reduces the cost per bushel in the same ratio. Vick's Magazine says that the best preventives of mildew on roses are good drainage, high manuring, selection of strong varieties, proper pruning and dusting with sulphur as soon as it appears. It is eontagious, and pome varieties are more subject to it than otkers. In answer to a question as to what is the best grain food for nvich cbws, Professor Arnold recommends four parts of corn meal and one part of linseed mea> as having given him the best results in proportion to cost of any d r y food that he had ever used.

Person^ afflicted with consumption are proverbially unconscious of their real state. Most cases commence with disordered liver, leading to bad digestion and imperfect assimilation of food—hence the einacfatton, or wasting oCthe fle&h. It is a form of scrofulous disease, and is curable by the use of that greatest of all blood-cleansing, anti-bilious and invigo. rating compounds, known as Dr. Pierce's "Golden Medical Discovery." The steamship Great Eastern will he in the New Orleans harbor during tbe Exposition and will be usod as a hotel. Many imitators, but no equal, has Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. There are comparatively few localities where plump, heavy barley can be grown. Oats succeed over a much wider extent of country; hence for those able to grow good barley there is less danger of over-production and extreme depression in price than there would bo if oats were sown in preference. Professor Sheldon remarks, in the Industrialist, that he has for years handled three or four distinct breeds of swine a n d studied tbem carefully; but if compelled to use but one breed, ho would be sorely puzzled to know which onn to take. Every breed has sterling points and counterbalancing weakness". A horse with a very wide breast, a1- though usually of good constitution and great strength, is seldom a graceful or rapid trotter; he is apt to have a "pad dling" g a i t and if used for road work will generally give out in the fore legs from the extra strain put upon them by the weight of the broad chest. L. H. Bailey says a vigorous mullein will produce 600,000 seeds, enough to stock a wh«le farm, and some to spare for the neighbors. The plant is biennial, one year a rosette of woolly leaves, next year a rigid flower stalk, which, d k s with the rest of the plant. At any time before the production c"( seeds & single clip with a hoe prevents] further mischief. J • The habit of eating eggs is most com' monly learned early rn the season, and generally from having frozon eggs in the nest," which the fowls learn to peck at. It is good economy to use porceiattr eggsy a n d tinless t h e hen house is well protected, gather eggs twice a day in eold weather. If any fowl is caught eating eggs, its head should come off at once, as others will soon learn the habit. In Germany the hives used are about the same size as those used here. That the hives were placed, as a rule, closer together than we do in America. That almost invariably the hives were placed under a cover something like a pavilion and that not i n f r e q u e n t l y the house is built open at the base, where a groat number of hives are placed, while in the next story the family of the a p i a r a t take up their abode. ;'. , • — Rev; Mrs, L.

DEAR SIR:—Please allow me through your columns to correct "notice, to whom it may concern." First, as soon as I found the tile were not all right I went and told Mr. Mclntyre, made the report he speaks of to him myself and he told me he would come and see the tile "next day, (this, I think was about the first of April) but did not come until about .June 5th, 1 think, when I was not at home, or has he ever spoken to mii about the .matter since. As to where the tile wt-re laid: it is a natural water course where, in wet seasons, the water runs the year round, except about four rods where we crossed a point of'dry ground for the purpose of straightening it, not for the purpose of making a watering place as I never had any such idea. As it was very d r y w f e r r w p u T m the tite we -plowed several furrows across the field and shoveled, out the dirt, then I employed one John Hoy, whom I know to be a competent hand to laytile, we commenced by putting in a trough made of four 2 inch, planks being 8x12 inches on the inside; at the north end of this trough we commenced laving the tile; here the tile was covered about ten inches and 30 feet north we covered 16 to 18 inches; here is the road-crossing where i f was covered with gravel sufficient to protect tile from any weight; further, Mr. Mclntyre told me that if 'fhe-tile- were down out of the way'of a plow the frost would not hurt, them, but he sirYs 1 -brought them to the tup of the gi oinrflwhen he knew they run into the plank trough.: further, he does not mention why they broke where the WULLT entered trom the open ditch through a barrel with holes in one,vide ami well banked to the tup of the barrel at the other side and covered with a flat stone and the tile covered witn muck and sodded well, which I can prove. Now I invite Mr.. Mclntyre to bring any one any day to examine this drain and see who is mistaken in this matter, but come when I am at home. Mr. Mclntyre took away some of the broken tile which I invite him to bring to the postoflice and leave for in-' speetion and I will bring some that he did n^Mvant-nnd-leave .tbere-ftrrsamg purpose. I do not think all. the tile that broke were poor, but the poor ones stopped the water then they Could not stand. In cleaning out the ditch we found good tile at intervals bed away Injustice to Mr. Mclntyre I would say I never heard any complaints of hostile, but I am sure mine was a dear experience and would say that I have just repaired with tile from Jackson, fire clay, and will report next spring how they stand the winter.

" T h a t old saying, 'I feel like a cat in a strange garret,1 describes my situation, exactly," and Miss J a n e t Moseby took off her best bonnet—a funeral one of black crape and lusterless ribbon— and cast it recklessly upon the dazzling red au(f green bed-spread. "Open that window, child," she went on, hastily. " I shall die in this stuffy little room, if you don't! There—that's right—throw the shutters wide!" Miss Moseby's niece, a dark-eyed, d a r k - b t t t r e t r ^ t r o g - ^ i r k - e b e y e d ; then turned to ia.ee her aunt, smiling. "Why, T d o h r t dislike this place, Aunt J a n e t , " she said; "see what' a lovely view we h a v e , " and she turned toward, the win£ dow again. "View!" cried Miss Moseby, not deigning to look; "yea I've no doubt— that's about all< 1 guess. J u s t look at this furniture, Rosetta! 011-fashionod, dilapidated stuff—red and green! It really makes, me <m.ite<&iok—we shall have to turn it wrong side o u t . " Rosetta laughed softly. "Hush-,-aunt, .she said, "they will hear you down stairs." But Miss Moseby cared very little, "Tfois is a. line locking-cimir— isn't i t ?

The air is very fresh and pure, and, as 1 said before the view is lovely." She went back to the window as she spoke, and stood looking out (or some little time. Before her stretched fields of yellowing grain and green, shining corn; a winding country roadylTSMered either stdo by daisies and pink sweet clover, led away to low, wooded hills in the distance. Bphind these dim blue hills the srrrr than 1 am, so 1 hardly think we will call him old, my dear, if you please." Rosetta gave a gay little laugh. "Well, anyway, bis hair is growing gray, Aunt J a n e t : but t h e u ^ t h a t may not oe from age; so as you say, we will not call him old." And then tho young girl ran down the front steps into the garden and buried her face in a bed of sweet pinks. Mr, Fendyke came and stood in the doorway with his pipe, and puffed little clouds of bluish white smoke unconsciously toward Miss Moseby, who sat out of sight on the porch. He watched Rosetta quite intently. He liked her fresh, young face, with its h r i g m V J e a l t h f u l coloring and soft curres. -,, There was a good (Teal in it besides mf-.re beauty. The dark eyes showed plenty of determination, and the pretty, smiling mouth was far from being weak. RoberL Fendyke was a bachelor of thirty-eight. He had never been in love, but t h a t did not follow he never would be." Perhaps when he did love it would be with that- much more intensity. His heart had not been frittered away in little pieces. When he would give it would be entiro and whole. Rosetta looked up from the bed of pinks to smile back at her a u n t and saw Mr. Fendyke in the doorway. H e returned her smile, not knowing it ^was intended for MissVMbseby. ~~ ~"= "You are fond of flowers?" ho said. "Very; and these pinks are just like those we have in the garden at h o m e , " the young_&irlsaid. •Do you not think you may grow homesick here?" Robert Fendyke went on; "it is quite lonely at times. You will be glad *even to hear the train whistle away in the distance." "No, I don't think so, I like the c o u n t r y . " Rosetta said, waliring toward him, a few ragged pinks held loosely in her hand; " a n d like this bouser " glancing up-atthe old red brick mansion',with its windows of tiny panes of leaded glass talVchimnoys. "1 like i t , " ' h o said; *'I come here every summer now. It rests me after the city." " H o w did you hear of it — lind ii out in tho first place?" the young girl askfollowing her •\ 9 was going down red and shining. Every moment the air was growing cooler and sweeten— In the grass-grown garden near by some chickens were cackling. Rosetta enjoyed the country sounds. " i hope that "means fried chicken for supper,"'observed Aunt Moseby, hearing the clatter, and niece to tho window. " I can hardly realize that I am in Maryland—sou^h, at least!" Rosetta exclaimed presently. * " I should think you m i g h t " Miss Moseby said, dryly. " I realise it every time I look abont me. Oh. for my own comfortable home! Child, why did you ever drag me from i t ? " " j tell you I like it hero, Aunt J a n e t , tiiready.

The high,Jbhiek mantel I delight in it--i£<Wpicturesquel I shall find that qu6er-iooking green vase with some dasies and grassov~and you will -how prettv it is!" For answer Miss Moseby simply shook her head, and then proceeded to bathe her fadftff'TflatTiri^Tn"tfi^erac'£ea stone china basin, and smooth her thin, faded hair before the small blurred glass. Rosetta look wonderfully frjesh, and unlike having traveled in her pretty blue flannel dress, so she only changed her linen collar and cuffs and rearranged her almost invisible " b a n g net" over the brown ring on her forehead, Shortly after, a tir. pan WHS beaten loudly for supper, and Mrs, Moseby and nicco deaeendfcd t h e winding stairs and found their way to another Vow-ceiled, whitewashed room, into which si reamed tho sunset, through two, western windows, lighting up the snowv, bountif ully-spread table.

She was standing on the porch near hi in now. Miss Moseby had fallen into a little tired doze,' after her journey, in the corner. "Through an advertisement in the paper. It was quite a modest little advertisement something like this: 'Aquiet country home, for summer boarders Healthy and cool,' if I remember rightly; bnt*it took my fwicy, and so I came, and I have founu it a home in every sense of tho word--more of a home than I have ever known in my life," Robert Fendyke added, with unconscious emphasis. Rosetta looked at him quickly. She had always known a very happy home — bhe felt sorry for any one who had not. But she simply said, " W e came here through friends who had once spent a summer here. I had never been rrged my aunt to bring me. '[ do not think you will regret comi n g , " remarked Mr. Fendyke. "No, I am sure" I shall n o t , " replied the young girl, and then Miss Moseby stirred in her, chair, and her niece wakened her, as the dew was falling, and they went into tho house together. Robert Fendyke finished his pipe by himself u n d e r t h e stars: but, somehow, the still old place did not seem quite so lonely that night. , _ _ — i - ^ j - — i . — _ _ _ Another starlight evening—several weefcs later.

" asks Fendyke, also plucking *t piece of boxwood and twirling it in' iiis hand. "1 hardly think so. I cannot come alone, and I do not believe Aunt J a n e t will bring me South again." " T h e n 1 am never to see you again?" Robert Fendyke suddenly stands still in the weed-grown walk, his voice is quite grave, and his face likewise. "Oh—1 hopo so—why n o t ? " the young girl makes answer, quickly, but rather' disjointedly. She Is picking the boxwood to pieces now, and is scattering it upon the ground." ' "Rosetta!" , How strange her name sounds to them both! "Rosetta, could you not be persuaded to stay south—to never go back north—to make Maryland your horn forever? You know what J mean—y you are not blind, child. You midst have seen for some time that I leaved you. Do you think you would be content to live here with me? Sometimes I have beon fool enough to think you would, Rosetta! Ah,' if you wonjd child"—suddenly smiling down upon "her, his face all aglow—"1 would try to make you so very happy! i would build you the prettiest home among these hills! You should have your flowers and everything you might wish — w e would be as happy as two children together! Will you stay with me, Rosetta—will y o u ? " Ho caught her hand eagerly and held it tightly within his^wn. The love he had never felt before had taken full possession of him now. Ho longed vet dreaded to hear her answer. It was not long in coming. Only a few moments* .hesitatfon; then the young girl looked bravely up at him. Her voice was quite unsteady, but she said: "Yes, I will stay with you." Then hid her face on his arm. Robert Fendyke bent and-- kissed her. " A n d we will live forever in Mary. ^ n d , my Maryland;"--he said tenderly. "for it was here that I met you, dearest." , To say that Miss J a n e t Moseby was surprised and disgusted when she regained her usual health and learned all does not express it in the least.

Onee^-wben remonstrated with upon the singularity" of his eon duct in this res.pee°t, and the pernicious effect the example might possiiny have upon the younger members .of his congregation, he replied' with the frank and open candor which has .always characterized lii'U that he would give the world to bo able to rid himself of the custom—and. added that the anguish he had suffered in frying to break himself of the habit had made him oh! before he was ninety. , M r . Beecher never wears his hat at dinner. He does, not consider it healthy. It does not immediately break down one's constitution but is slow and sure. He knows one case- where a man persisted in the habit; in spite of the tears and entreaties of his friends, until it was too late, and he reaped the due reward of his rashness—fijf^it carried him off at last, at the age of 106. Had that man listened to reason, he might have lived to be a comfort to his parents and a solace t o their declining years. Mr. .Beecher never swears. In all his life a profane oath has never passed his lips; But if he were to take it into his head to try it once, he would make even that disgusting habit seem beautiful— he would handle it as it never was handled before, and if tlyp're was a wholesome moral lesson hidden away in it anywhere he would,-ferret it out and use it with tremendous effect. Panoplied with his grand endowments—his judgment, his discriminating taste. Lis felicity of expression7, his graceful fanc y - i f Mr. Beecher had a mind to swear he could throw into it an amount of poetry, and pathos, and splendid imagery, and moving earnestness, and resistless energy, topped off and climaxed with a ^dirgeous—pyrotechnic conflahhioree And fancy swearication speeches for all sorts of things, and he ; s obliged to make a few remarks on near)yr all distinguished occasions, because very often Mr. Greeley is busy ami can not come. And besides, he has to carry on his farm. One of Mr. Beecher1;1. most harrasing diuVultJes in his farming operations, comes of the e l s e resemblance of different sorts of seeds and plants to each other! Two years ago his far-sightedness warned him that there was going to be a great scarcitv of watermenons, and therefore he put in a crop of twentyseven acres of .that fruit. But when they came up they turned out to be pumpkins, and a dead loss was the consequence, Sometimes a portion of his crop goes into the ground the most promising sweet potatoes, and comes up the infernalest carrots—though I never have heard him express it in just that way. When he bought his farm he found one egg in every hen's nest on the place. He said that here was ju»t the reason why so many farmers failed —they scattered their forces too much —concentration was the idea. So he gathered those eggs together and put them all under one experienced old hen. That hen roosted over that contract night and day for eleven weeks, under the anxious personal supervision of Mr. Beecher himself, but she could ; not " p h a s e " those eggs. Why? Because they were those "infamous porcelain things which are.used by ingenious and fraudulent farmers as "nest-eggs." But perhaps Mr. Beecher1 s niT53t disastrous experience was the time he tried to raise an immense crop of dried apples. He planted $1,000 worth, but never a one of them sprouted. He has never been able to understand, to this dav, .TH£ LATE R I S ^ P SIMPSON. Brhish conferences and the Evangelical what was the matter with those apples. | Alliance at Berlin.

A man of high order of intellect and. appreciation could sit and listen to Mr. Beecher swear for a week without getting tired. Mr. Beecher is very regular in his habits. He always goes to bed proraptly between 9 and 3 o'clock, and never on any account allows nimself to vary from this rule. Ho is just as particular about getting up, which he does the next day. generally He considers, that to this discipline, and to this alone, he is indebted for the rugged health he has enjoyed ever since he adopted it. Mr. Beecher does not go around and got advertisements for The Plymouth Pulpit. If he do*>a it, it is without his knowledge or consent. If such a report his been started, it is an absolute duty to refute it in this article. However.Jio such report has yet been heard of, and therefore it is not necessary to do more than refute it in" a purely general way at this time. M r / B e e c h e r could augrnentjjie bulk of the pamphlet to which his sermons are attached if he chose to fto around and solicit such a thiny. He has no timo for such recreation. He has to preach, a i d he has to make ded- Mr. Beecher'sfarm consists of thirtysix acres, and is carried on on strict seientilicprinciples. He never puts in any part of=ft crop withouc consulting" his book. Ue plows, and reaps, and uigs, and sows according t o t h e best authorities—and t h e authorities cost more th&a—the other farming implements do. As soon a3 the library is complete the farm will begin to be a prqtitablu-i-nvestment. B u t book farming^ ijas its draw backs. Upon one oceasioi), when it seemed morally certain that the, hay ought to be cut, the hay book coll Id not be found—and before it was feund it was too late and the hay was'spoiled. Mr. Beecher raises 3ome of the tinest crops, of wheat in this country, but? the unfavorable difference between the co-t of producing it and. its market value after it is produced has interfered considerably with its success as a commercial enterprise. His special weakness is hogs, however. lie considers hojzs the best game a farm produces. He buys the original pig for $1.50, and feeds- him -$40 . worth of corn, and then skills, him for about $9. This is the only crop he ever ma ices -any money on. He loses-on the corn, inn h e - jinke* -$7-.0v-on--t&e--hog. He doe-, not mind t h n beo.uisc he never to make auything on corn. And an\'w;tv it turns out ho A S k e t c h of H l f Life. Not only Methodism, but Christianity has lost one of its noblest and most valiant workers in the death of Bishop Simpson, who departed this life J u n o 18 IX* I.- Matthew Simpson was botn in Cadi* Ohio, J u n e 20 1811, a n d h i a _ i i a r ^ L _ . childhood did not differ materially from that of other boys of his day. His edcat!onal advantages were well improved, and in his 19th year he became a tutor in Madison, now Allegheny college, where he remained nearly three years. During-these years he kept u p the study of medicine in which profession he graduated at the age of 22, and soon after entered the ministry in the Pittsburgh conference. After several years of active pastoral work he was elected vice prosident and professor in Allegheny college. He remained in this institution two years, when he was called to the presidency of Indiana Asbury University. For nearly 10 years ho continued his labors with this institution, when he was elected ° editor of the Western Christian A d v o - cate, the duties of which position he performed until 1802, when he was elected bishep. He entered at once upon the duties of his calling, and has been actively en gaged in the work pertaining themJto —- from that time until called hence to receive from the Master the welcome plaudit, "It is enough, come up higher." He has'presided at conferences irv all tht* states and territories, and, has been honored as a delegate to the Irish and expects auy way. has tho. excitement of raising the hog anyhow, whether he gets the worth of him or • not. His strawberries would be a comfortable success if the robins would eat turnips, but they won't, and hence tho diflieulty. • Mr. Beecher's.farui is not.a triumph. It would be easier for hitr if lie worked it on shares with some one; but he can n it find any o n e w h o is willing to stand half the expense, and not many who are extensively through Greece, Turkoy, Egypt and the Holy Land and presided at conferences in several European countries. He visired Mexico upon a^very- ~ diifcoult and important mission, and did much for. the up-building of Christ's kingdom among that people. InKlI881 he visited Europe for the third time as delegate to the first Methodist Ecumenical council. Since his return he has been actively engaged in the work to which he has given the, best years of his life. During the civil w a r he labored iridefatigably for the Union he so dearly loved,andLfor the freedman whose cause he advocated with rbice and pen upon all occasions. And when tho strife was over and peace had spread its wings over the sections of our beloved land so short a time before at war with each other. no one was more willing to aid the poor freedman than he of whom w»« write. When the assassin's bullet had ended the life of our martyred president; Abraham Lincoln, Bishop Simpson was the messenger who carried the healing balm of Christ's irospel to the sorrowing••- hen-rts-of the -more i»ti mate friends of our martyred dead, and presid- d at thefuneral services when the remains were laid in their final resting place. _While laying no claim to fyit,b"r-hip hp has left behind him som^ works which will l>e treasured wherever and as long as the English language is spoken. Among these are his "Encyclopedia of Methodising" a " H u n d r e d Years of Methodisim,'' and "Lectures on Preaching." Among his remarkable sermons are counted the one delivered kt Chicago immediately after the capture of Fort Sumter, upon t h e troubles of the nation," and t h e address able. Still, persistence in any upon"" the "Future~oT ourrCounTfy""" case is bound to succeed. He was a very inferior farmer when he nrst began, but a prolonged and unflinching assault upon his agricultural difficulties has had its effect at last, and he is now fast rising from affluence to poverty. I shall not say anything about Mr. Beecher's sermons. They breathe the truest and purest spirit of religion; they are models of pulpit oratory, and they aro proofs that the subject which is the nearest to the interests of mankind can be put to nobler uses than the>'hloroformiiig of congregations. Mr. Beecher has done more than any other man. perhaps, to inspire religion with the progressive spirit of the nineteenth century and make it keep step with the mar'^h of intellecruat achievement and the general growth of men's charities and impulses. It is such men as Beecher that persuade religious commuuicies to progress to iomething belter than witch-burning delivered before the Christian Commission in Philadelphia, in 1873. This address was repeated in many of tho larger cities in this country and in Europe, prodaoing - everywhere a most marked impression. The one showing most plainly the ten^ derly sympathetic nature of the g r a n d old man, was his brief address at E x t e r Hall after the death of President Garfield. His addresses before the different conferences both in this country andabroad are_ treasured in " tho archives of history as witnesses of power of the saintly old man whoso one thought, in all his life work was for the advancement of his Master's cause. Humble, as befitted his high and holy calling, his ear was ever ready to listen, and'his heart ever ready to respond to any cry of the distressed, and' while possessing, in a remarkable degree all the intellectual ability required of one occupying so high and exalted a when the spirit of the time progresses I uosition, vet it may be truthfully >frmoi lml l o) !x» • -wI InI ItDMI I IjHuLaI >m) l 1k Ii aLI f1f •l! ^I "'1i1'1U I lli'fTcllll •m JIL i aMmi l li* L 1 I n i l _ I i * •• r • ' »• • • " '• • • I • •• I . j • » « by and by to steamboats; and who persuades such communities to progress beyond tho indorsing of slavery with their bibles wken the spirit of"the times progresses to the subordination of the steamboat to the railroad, and the discarding of pouy: expresses for the telegraph.

PUC story fraui" bulMing, 6.bimt 18*37 feet. A porch or veranda ruus aloug thi-eotJre front. A door from this opens Into a largo 6ltttr^ room. bij.ck of this'is a kitchen anu a small bedroom opening into the latter. Off the front room is a email bedroom, where the .crime was committed, with one door opening Into the room first mentioned and two windows, one opening into the verandah and the other towards the south. Through this last mentioned window the husband says the murderer reached with his club, whieh'was a stake about three feet long, and which for weeks past has been used on the premises to fasten a stable door. It was discovered about half an hour after the first alarm was given, lying near the south end of the ver?nda, about six feet from the latter and ten from the south window, covered with clotted blood. This room \i eight feet square and the bed, standing with its head towards the south, entirely filled its space on the west 6ide of the south window. Reaching into the window to hit the head of this bed at the center a man standing on the ground outside would,aa-vour reporter proved by experiment, be obliged to huve a is body more than half into the room, in fact be balancing himself on his hlf». .., The deceased, Mr?. Lucy Lorg, formerly Miss Nk'kerson, was 26 veers of age and her hmthand S5,—They have heen mnrrieti^ nearly four years, and have no children. They were alone*in the house the night of the murder, sleeping in the front bed-room above mentiottd. Up to two weeks, since they slept in the back bed-room,but changed at Mr. Long's urgent request. On Wednesday last tne husbtuid Andrew LoDg, drew from a Muir bank 1152.50 belonging to the mother of his wife, who was couBlng after it on .Saturday morning. IGNO'S STOIiV Is that they retired about 9 o'clock, he sleeping on the backside of the bed The body of his wlfeTreln'g ibowu to have rested upon the ends o* both pillows iu the center of the narrow bed he admits he had only fourteen lncbea in which to He, and says he did not use the pillow. He. eays he was awakened by his wife making a gurgling noise, aud locking up saw a man reaching into the window and striking her with a club. He sprang up and caught .the club, when another man appeared at the window and begin cutting him with a knile on' the hands and nrally he felt, a cut in his side nnd let go, cning out that he would get his gun. Hewent "through the long front room into the kitchen and thence into the back bed room, fot bis gUHundrexTiTnedto thefroct bedroom. [e discovered • that bis pants, which lay in the center of the floor.and contained* the $150 50, were gone and the window^cio&dd. Herthru^t Tvls gun"through a pane of glass and tired. Then he weDt to the front door and went about twenty-live rods to the house of a neighbor named Frank Connor, and then to that of Noah Kroutz, & brother-in-law. At both places his hrst exclamation was: 'Some one has come to my house and killed my wife and cut my hands all to pieces." Connor's wife would not let him go; but_Kroutz and his hired map, John Duel went Immediately. They found Lougou the veruEda aud a light In the house. Thej found Mrs. Long yet breathing but with her head beaten almost out of shape. The skull was (Token into twenty pieces and clotttd blood an inch tbkk was <.n"her face. She continued to breathe for about, ten minutes The bt-d was Hooded with blood, the carpet soaked and the walls 'locked with it. The head of the bedstead had been hit six times just over her head aud was split-by-t-hrce blows striking in the same place. CONTSADICTOY KAC'tJ. Among a few of the facts which contradict the husband's story are these: The graes beneath the window is undbturbed, It, is only three and one-halt feet from the ground to the window t-ilt, but, even a tall person cannot stand on the ground and with the club iu question reach the center of the bed and strike a blow with acy—Btrength. The window was fastened with an eitiht-penny nail the night before, which was broken newly in two on Saturday morning. There was not the slightest mark of the window being forced from the outside, but bloody'finger marks were plain around the stub of the nail and on the opposite side where one might,inthe dark, be feeling for the nail from the inside. His pants which were afte^wardB found in the road, without the money, 1 a4 no blood upon them except one finger ma.k, although the fioor where he says they lay up to the time above mentioned was covered with blood. The cuts In his shirt are three or four incheg'long, bat his Mesh was barely cut into, and Dr. Smith will testify that there is only one cut on the body. The cuts on his hands are mere scratches. A heavy water pitcher stood against the window and he, might have used it as a weapon, but it was not disturbed. / ' The bed shows every sign of having bu£ one occupant, and the sputtered blood on the wall below the head of the matt re 6«. shows that nothing higher than the mattresxcould Have been between Mrs. Long and tMe wall. He recognised the blood> club as belonging, to the stable/ when picked tip in/the dark at a distune/ of- several feet. The cuta in thevghtrt look like razor cuts.

He says he has il distinct reeoihetion of all that, trttnxptred und did itas deliberately as he would go out to get an HI intul of wood. He says he cannot give ;<nv reason for kllliug her, except that that he thought ought to. This was the most brutal aud cqld-ldjoded uurder ever committed in Ionia cjunty. The motive which Induced Long to commit the foul crime is still locked up iu his own guilty breast. The eonfessiou was .made at hi« re: quest. The money was' fouisd In the pluce where he said he had hid it. f Till-: OSCODA S T R I K E , T r o o p s O r d e r e d O u t - T l i r e a t » V i o l e n c e Kile. ot OSCODA, June 21.—All business places and shops are closed, and everything is as quiet as a Sabbath -aorning, but It is feared it is only the calm before the outbreak of a storm fearful In its violence. A meeting of the citizens was held last night and it was decided to telegraph the governor to have the troops sent at once to the scene of disturbance. In response to the telegram the governor ordered the Bay City guards to report at Oscoda, and they arri-^d .on the evening train in' company with 20 of Piukerton's detectives. The Alpena guards were also ordered out and at once proceeded to Oscoda under command of I*4rf*ut. C:>1. Donnelly. The matter had been arranged so quietly that, the troops were on hand before the strikers were aware of their presence. The strikers are aot disposed to yield, and there is grave fears that bloodshed will follow. The feeling among the better class of citizens, against the strikers is that order must be 'maintained. It is difticult to predict what the end'will be. S h o c k i n g T r a g e d y a t \ \ U U e h u l l . GrandRaplds Democrat. A shocking attempt at murder occurred at Whitehall Monday night.

The particulars a r e a s follows: Some time last April Wm. Vanderburg, aged 40, left home, three miles northeast of Mulr, lncompany with Oscar Scott, step-brother of his wife by marriage, since which nothing has been heard of hlra. Certain circumstances since developed -Jodieat* that he riftfi .ihftQ. murdered aud hie body hid in the woods. He married 10 vears ago a girl of 14, and of late much trouble has existed owing to Scott's intimacy with hla wife, and quarrels were frequent, ofteu leading to blow 6. The night before his disappearance the thrte had a violent quarrel, but ocott and Vanderburg made up and started north the next morning in search of work. Two days after after Scott returned alone and took Vanderburgh wife and went to Edmore, where they have since lived as man and wtfe. Officers Derrick went alter Scott andbrougnt him to Mulr in custody. He denies all knowledge of Vandtrburg's whereabouts, but the woman told Dt rrkk she thought him dead and hoped he was, and that no one wouiiwv^r see li'iu again.

WHOSE WASTHE GUILT? BY DAVIIMCKK. Ellis Tremayne laid his fork down with a gesture half-of impatience, half of discouragement, and a frown, that had no business on the forehead of a six months' married man, the husband of the prettiest of women, corrugated his handsome white forehead. "You seem~~not to have the smallest appreciation of affairs, Effie. I have explained time and again that I am living up to my income, not saving a penny, and yet you still persist in demanding money for every trifle that take* your fancy.'" Ellis Tremaj ne spoke more decisively than Effie had ever heard lum, and she mentally vowed liim horribly cross, and parted her red lips and leaned back in herctiair with a very aggrieved look on her lovely face. And-it-was lovely^ Mr. Tremayne thought so that same moment as he looked at the delicate, pink-and-snow complexion, and the large dark blue eyes that played such havoc with his heart a year ago; at the full exquisite lips that had only seemed" mans for amiJoy arid kisses, then, that now were rapidly consum mating their task of discovering the clay—feet of his—idol, that now were parting to utter words he kaow were coming, that did come, "You are just as mean and cross as can: be! What's the use of living at all if you can't have what you want^ if you can't have thiDgs like other people? I tell you I do think you might let me have soaae money this morning; I need it most awfulLyJ' Her blue eyes certainly looked pleading enough to give entire credence to her assertions. " I am almost tempted to say that cannot betrui, Effie, since it was only a week ago to-day I handed you^tweiity pounds, a sum amply sufficient for even the most inexperienced financier on which to keep a family of two.'1 Darker frowns were gathering on Tremayne's forehead, but Effie only answered with a sneer. "Twenty pounds! You speak as if it were a fortune. 1 tell you, Ellis, I must have things like—like other people. How on earth do you suppose I feel when Mrs. Coddington or Miss Bellburn calls for me to drive, wearing their elegant carriage costumes, and I in the same dress I appear in the street or at church?" Tremayne smilpd contemptuously. "So you hope to rival the daughter ot :i millionaire and the only daughter of a wealthy banker, do you?—you, the wife of the cashier at Wingfield & Sons, on £700 pounds a year? Effie, have nothing to do with women who are, unconsciously, perhaps, sowing seeds of discontent and extravagance in your heart." "I am neither discontented nor ex trayagant, Ellis—you shall not say so But I mt st have money enough to get a new suit. Oh! Ellis, such a heavenly shade of prune, and you know l e a n wear so well one particular shade. Hon- -fistiy, I haven't a dress to wear to Mrs. Lamar's reception " Ellis ate his egg with little show of satisfaction, and his silence, while bitter thoughts were rushing through his ^mind, was taken by Effie as a sure sign of consent. She was not slow in pressing her advantage. "It won't cost over twenty pounds, Ellis—very reasonable, indeed; for J thall make iknearly all myself, and I am sure you can't be disple*&ed at that. Then say 4yes,' wont you Ellis, dear?" A settled, white look came around the hahlJsome^tirouth "If you care more for show and fine. Clothes than for my respect and^-the consciousness that yon are an economiiaL- prudent wife, whefa helping her husband save, instead of almost goad- »*- ing him into debt, yau can have the money." Her eyes flashed as delightedly as a child's over a new toy She had accomplished her desire.and his cold, yet touching, words bad fallen unheeded before that— ' "You QR,n have the money." She sprang from her chair behind the coffee urc, and threw her arms around his neck, kissing his worried, handsome forehead. "You darling! I knew you would not say 'no,'for all you read me such a lecture on economy. Reallyrillis.when you see how lovely I shall look in my new silk, you will not grudge me the money, will you? You like to see me look as pretty as I did before we were married, don't you? And you're not angry, dear? You do love me?" Her sweet.girlish face all alight with kappy enthusiasm, her blue eyes dancing with honest delight, her smooth cheek lying against his, and her dainty little hand Booking his whiskers, of course Ellis laid down his napkin and pushed back from the table snd kissed her. She wtts his wife—sweet, pretty, delicate as a mountain pink, and he loved her— loved-her dearly, truly, as m the davswnen he had won her, thinking what k rare flower she was. He loved her, and was willing, yes, anxious, to increase her happiness by every honest means in his power—only Effie was extravagant and unreasonable in her demand for dress and style that were beyond the capabilities of even the well-salaried man he was*. So now he-kissed her tenderly, and then took out bis purse and laid a bank note on the table cloth. "There's your new silk dear—may you enjoy it." .» His foreboding manner had so entirely disappeared that Effie's heart was encouraged to • undertake another pet plan. So as she demurely folded the note away in her pretty little crimson Russian pocket book, she began, so quietly that Ellis was quite captured bv storm. " I was wondering if it would not be a good plan if we shut up the house for August, dear, and went somewhere. It will do you so much good, I'm sure, and there will be no expenses here while we're away. Can't we go to Hastings?" Sne opened the, battery very suddenly, almost staggering Tremayne. "Oh, Effie, no. Jt would involve a larger expense, ten times, thau it costs at home." Then seeing that well-known, martyr- like expression bettling on her face that always drove him into desperation; he added, hastily^ "If you caa^nanage it go yourself. I dare say soiae of your fashionable friends will chaperon you." — • ' "Ob, may I, may I, really? Indeed, I will manage it! I don't need many (then he arose with a half groan of mennew things, I'm sure. for the silk, and with a little m o r e l can easily get what I absolutely need. Ellis you are a darling!" He laughed- - nol^veryj oy ou sly. "I am glad you think so. Well, I'm off." Two hours later. Mrs. Effie Tremayne, dressed in an un exception ably elegant walking costume, started out on her shopping tour to meet at the silk counter Mrs, Godfred Coddington, carelessly tossing over rare pieces of evening silk. " I am so delighted to have your taste on my new silks my dear Mrs: Tremayne. Do tell me which you prefer, the salmon, or the pearl-blue, or this sunnier pink? I intend to have a couple of them ior Hastings." Hastings! —Mrs^-T-reinayne's cheeks glowed. " I hope to see you at the shore, Mrs. Coddington, and in either this exquisite maize or silver pink." "So you will be there? Do join our party--only Godfrey and sister Blanche and Nellie Beilburn and I--for next Thursday week. Have you engaged rooms? What shall you get new?" It was certainly very delightful to be talked to thus, but once home, there occurred little qualms of conscience, as very, very gradually, she felt herself drawn into arrangements nhe knew were far beyond her reach And yet she consented to Mrs. Coddington's kind offer that Mr. Coddington should secure rooms for her with his party. _ She made up her mind that the ele^ gant stock of clothes that two hours ago she thought nee.led only a liltle renovation and small addition to make it all that was-necessary, "would not do at all. And so, besides the money her husband had given her being spent in the dozen and one trifling accessories that a well dressed woman ».toilet-demands, 1 guilt? there was foldod away in a seldom I Hers, or not. who knelt and sobbed used compartment of Mrs. Tremayne's over his dead face, and tried to reason pocket book an nnreceipted bill of £50 into silence an inner voice that refused So she quieted her conscience with the hopefully specioun promises, and the next day, finding it impossible to get ready by herself in time to go with Mrs. Coddington^s party, was obliged to employ the sen'ices of a high priced dressmaker, whose bill for her work she tucked away in her pocket book also, and thus swelled the indebtedness of her husband to be paid when she returned. Ah, when she returned. If ,she had only known, as she kissed her daintily kidded hand to her husband, as he stood watching her off, with a look in his eyes that was mingled love, sternness, pride, annoyance and harrassing worry, * * * * * * "One of the prettiest women at the seaside and certainly the beat-dressed. She must be a banker's wife, at the . least. Who did you say you understood she was?" Old Mr. Winfield put up his eye-glass as Mrs. Tremayne went by, fair to see as a lily, in her carriage dress of tonder cream tint, with hor lace-covered, pinklined parasol making faint, rosy shades on her clear, blonde face and brilliant golden hair. "She is a Mrs. Tremayne, from London, with the Coddingtons. I believe, and putting up ut the parade. A regular beauty, isn'tshe?" Mr. Wingfield put his eye-glass slowly back, starring after the Coddington carriage. "Mrs. Ellis Tremayne? I suppose her husband is here?" "Not that I know of. Indeed, I think I heard young Bellburn say he was unable to leave his business—a book-keeper or something, I believe for a firm in the Crty." Mr. Winfield arose from his chair with an odd smile on his face. "Mrs. Tremayne must either bo mis- WOMAN'S DEPARTMENT.

He had gone over to the iittie dressing bureau, carelessly Inking up two little pieces of paper that Effie hud entirely forgotten to hide, auii a pallor, ev«jn more marked than his late deathly paleness, overspread his face as he^saw the two lormidable bills. . Then something like an oath came from his set teeth. "My temptation be on her head- my He sprang suddenly to his feet, as the door-bell pealed imperiously, and listened with no ordinary curiosity, as a mSn's voice demanded to see Mr, Ellis Tremayne, and heard the servant usher his company ;nto the drawing-room. Then he went slowly down stairs into the presence of Mr Wingfield and an officer. "Mr. Tremayne, you are—discovered in your neat svstem of embezzlement, Oficer " " Ellis stepped haughtily back. "One moment, gentlemen, if you please. Mr. Wingfield, 1 am discovered. Twenty-four hours later I would have been beyond prrsuit. As it is^what is the difference* between a hunted life abroad, or—this?" Quick as a flash, the pistol gleamed in the gaslight.

J E R O M E W1NCHELL, E D I T O K . Entered at the Pout-office „os 2*1 class matter. CURRENT TOPICS: Miss MAI;I> C. M A J O K , a young woman not yet out of her " t e e n s , " has started a paper out in Norfolk, Dakota. I t does not say a word about fashions, but is full of the doings of the noble cowboy, a n d gives latest particulars about the last shooting match with all its gory results., M R . D. L. MOODY, the renowned evangelist, closed his mission labors In England J u n e 23 and in a few days will start for the United States., He will probably spend the summer at his -fyraie in New England, recruiting from his labors for tha_ past year, and, getting ready for the work which he is expected to begin In Cincinnati next winter. His coming is anticipated with much interest by the various religious denominations. What the possibilities of his labors in that city may be can be judged from the stateiueut that about thirty-five thousand persons have professed conversion at his meetings in England the past year. P E R H A P S thcjSe w h o want to go to Europe without crossing the ocean may some day have their wishes gratified. A correspezident says it is proposed that, a railroad7 shall be constructed, along the Pacific coast to th>-ex1remity of Alaska", where ajepriage would connect the tourist>rfith the Russian railway system", which would be extended to the Siberian judfl-of^jihxLng.'jr-S^JL A&theAtrait.ia.ODly.45. miles wide between East Cape and Cape Prince of Wales, this distance in a swift steamer would be trifling even for the victims of sea-sickness. Parlor cars transferred to the steamers might practically give an overland route from N ew York t<* St Petersburg without change. w» / K A T E F I S L D , although not a Wv>man tmtfragist, would not have the/suffrage taken away from the women/of Utah. She protests against the injustice of disfranchising one sex f qf the crime of polygamy of which both sexes are equally guilty, and she draws attention to the fact that it was not women who were implicated in the Mountain1 Meadow maeacre o r a n y other of thenumerous outrages against law and order in the territory. Her sympathies are with the Morniotywomen who are deluded^ oppressed and most unfortunate, and she hopej that no eastern woman will sign th« petition to congress praying for the disfranchisement of the women of Utah. Her residence in the territory gives her opportunity for informing herself of the status of Mormon ^vo'wen and heropinions are worthy of consideration. T H E U t a h bill as passed by the Senate is a very stong and searching measure, prescribing energetic an4 sweeping measures so clearly and sharply t h a t if once put into effect the Mormon monstrosity would so9n become a thing of the past. Every marriage must be certified in prescribed from under penalty of heavy fine and imprisonment; adultery is to be punished by im^. prisonment in the penitentiary>for a t e n a not less than thj^e-^years; the Territorial law, tha^prosecution^ for adultery caj^^be instituted only by h u s b ^ s t f a n d wife, is abrogated, and it offense is put on Hie same basis as other crimes in respect to information a n d prosecution; the Territorial laws_ sustaining the corporation of the "Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints" are annulled so far as they preclude the appointment of Trustees by the United, States, and fourteen Trustees, with important powers, are to be appointed by the President; -the "Perpetual Emigration Fund Company" is dissolved, and it is rendered unlawful to create or recognize any corporation even by the most conservative of colleges. Yale, under lead of President Porter,. has defended the classics :md resented the recent criticisms upon thorn; but the corporation of that college has just ordered that next year candidates for admission to the freshman class shall be required to translate at sight easy selections in prose from French or German, at the individual's option; the requirements in Latin and Greek are to bo reduced, and more attention given to French and German during tho freshman and sophomore years. At the close of ten years more the friends of a sensible oducation may bo gratified at finding candidates and students required to pass an examination in English; to know something of Shakespeare and his times, of Bacon, Milton,Chaucer; of the colonial history of the American revolution; or of nature and.,its processes: even of i h e government of the town or city in which the student lives, and at least the first principles of buying and selling known as political economy. For there are tho3e who believe these and kindred subjects to be as well worth tho serious study now given to Homer and Xenopbon, Virgil and Caesar, to the thousand exceptions to the rules of Latin g r a m m a r and the Greek inflections. F o r A c t u a l S e t t l e r s . A Washington correspondent writes: It is possible^ °e,vcTi probable, that before congress adjourns a number, perhajps- fffiarly all of the land grant forfeiture bills will pass both houses, it they do there is no doubt about their onactnit nt into- l^aws, as the President will certainly sign them. I t is unlikely that the railroad companies will submit to the provision^ of these without a fight, and a long legal contest over the rignt of congress to forfeit these millions of ^•res^w-hieh—-have been granted to_aM the construction of railroads will ensuo, with a probable final adjudication of the legal questions involved by the supreme court of the United States so^he five or ten years hence. It is probable that, in the end, the result will be the restoration to the public domain of a vast amount of public land to be taken up by actual settlers in the future, i It has been'noticed b}' those who have given the subject attention that of the immigrants who come to this country the Swedes and Norwegians generally go west, form colonies and prosper; the Poles and somo other Europeans hang around the cities, trusting for their support to their chr.nces to get work. When work is plenty they gat alo-jg very Well, but when wnr\f .clacka tiwy n m t h o first nut AROUND THE FARM. orassociation in Utah having tor us object the bringing of immigrants to Utah Territory for any purpose whatever; all election districts arc to be abolished and the T e n t o r i a l districts re-apportioned ; the office of Territorial Superintendent of District Schools is vacated and the appointment is lodged in the Supreme Court, and the dower rights of widows are minutely regulated. A FROI'OS of the attack made Upon t h 6 study of Latin and Greek by Prof. Charles Francis-. Adams, an Exchange gays: The influence of Mr. Charles 'IftuclTXitam'i*' assault upon Latin and Greek is already beginning to be felt forers.'* These men might bo willing, and probably are, to take up tho homesteads it they could .got to the place where the homestead lands exist. But tho cost of travel to the available lands is' larger than their means. Consequently they remain in the cities and become charges upon the public. It has been suggested that it would bo good policy for the government to assist these immigrants to reach the lands upon whi«h they, can make homes and become valuable citizens. I t is probably too late now to take anyv steps during the present session, but it'te understood tnatMr. May bury ot Michigan has under consideration a plan which he will submit in tho form of a bill, providing for the transportation of immigrants who declare their intention of bocomir^ citizens; from their points ofdostination to tho states and territories of the north west where land is^ptentiful, together with an a'mendnietftto existing laws providing t t h a X s e t t l c r taking up a homestead^tiall have 10 years in which to^fako payments, and that no cask-smill be required until'after he Shall have an opportunity to'make a crop. I t - i s ' ' believed that some such- pTan as this would not only relieve the cities of this country of~ thousands at—paupora, but—ttnrtr it would also lead to "the settlement of the government land by a class of hardy and willing men. Several mouths will probly elapse before action is taken -the-matter by thaHouse*...during. -whieh-ample opportunity will bo afforded for discussing the scheme. I lew*, ot Vulue. Sprinkle onion buds with hoi waler tedestroy maggots. The frequent use of the cultivator is a secret in'corn culture English agricultural writers discourage tho use of salt in silos. Osage orange should be pruned three times during tho summer. If you have any buckwheat feed it to your laying hens. It is great egg food. Give tho cows a daily supply of salt and they will not meddle with old bones. Where a field is overrun with woods frequent summer plowing is the only remedy. Everything on a farm i* valuable.The compost heap is tho farmer's saving bank. If you would have quick and eilicieni._WQrkf use good tools and keep them clean. A Kentucky Xarmer is putting in 100 acres of hemp, antt paid $400 for the seed he used. It is estimated that seventy-five per cent of the cattle in America are scrubs or natives. Cottonseed meal is excellent for cows and sheep, but should never be given to pigs or horses. An Indiana farmer says ho keeps bells on several of the sheep of his flock, and though his neighbors all about him have had sheep killed by dogs, his Hock has never been troubled. Professor Henry urges farmers to feed more oats to young stock, colts :ur well as calves. There is no food so easily attainable that will cure acidity of the stomach and keeps the system in order. ~~.~A box lOxi'O^ inches will hold just half a bushel. Such a oox may easily be made, and is very convenient to have on the farm. It is cheaper and just" as good as a more expensive measure. An infusion of tomato leaves ha? been found an antidote for many noxious insects. Aphides, or plant lice, and melon bugs are driven away/by it.—It is worthy of trial for a variety of the pests. When the animals are turned out to grass provide them with salt freely and regularly.' Many good farmers prefer placing rock salt where stock pan get to it at all times. When tuis is done animals will never take more salt than is good for them. It is slovenly practice to take a reaper in a harvest field without first cutting around the field with a cradle. It is done, however, more and more every^ year, one reason being that few farmers* have cradles in good condition for using, and few men nowadays know how to use them. Where apple trees are trimmed, in spring on grass land, it is a too common practice to leave the trimmings on the-ground as they..fall, A luxuriant growth of grass soon starts under this double shade of tree and bush, but it is watery and innutritions. Cows will not touch it when they can get other grass. The codling moth may be trapped by suspending wide-mouthed bottles in bearing apple trees. Tho bottles should be partially filled with vinegar, and water, sweetened by one quarter its bulk in molasses. The bottles should bo examined once in three o r four daysand— the. moths d e s t r o y e d ^ O l d f r u i j , cans that will hold water arejust-^the thing for this use. The farmer who gets coiner A N o b l e A n s w e r . A lad in Boston, rathor sraa1! for his\ a<re, works in'an office as errand boy for four gentlemen who do business there. One duy the gentlemen were chaffing him a little about being so smaH, and said to him: "You will never amount to much, you never can do much business, y ou art- t o n Kwin.n.?1 The little fellow looked at them. " W e l l , " said he, "as small as I am, ] can do something that neither of you four men can do.1* "Ah, what is t h a t ? " said they. " I don't know* as I ought to tell you," he replied, But they were anxious to know, and urged him to tell what he coDld do that neither of them was able to do. "Itrarrkeep from swearing," said the kittle fellow. There wore some blushes on the four manly fao-ss, and there seemed to be very little anxiety for further information on that subject. with his work shonld see to it that hiJ best landjs^most thoroughly cultivated. If anything must be neglected, let it be poorest. The best land is usually the weediest, and if not attended to promptly will soon be beyond help. After tho hurry of harvesting the extra help then employed will probably be .needed in hoed crops. Level cultivation is undoubtedly best for corn, and might also bo for potatoes so far as -yield is concerned^ many of the tubers, where no hilling has been done will be sunburned and unmerchantable. In a season of fre- Tho value of potash for grapes has been recognized Dy cultivators. A curious proof is reported to one of the French journals. A variety of the black Muscat has been found defective in color where potash is deficient in tho soil, and the writer recommends that one vine of this grape be placed in every grape house, to show by its full or by its deficient color whether tho border of tho roots has a sufficient supply of potash. ATood ashes, unleashed, is the cheapest medium for supplying potash. Years ago guano was the one fertiliser that way thought profitable to use in concentrated form. Hut its results were generally disappointing. After a few years' use the guano ceased to exhibit its early effect, the largo erop which it produced at first having exhausted the soil more than would have been the case without the fertilizer. Tho commercial phrbsphates and superphosphates have mainly taken the place •f guano. They do not produce quite the effect that guano used to do, but they are more lasting.

Somo of the books on the list are still extant, but tho majority of them have passed into oblivion. Their titles however, will tend to give one a/good idea of the curious extravagance indulged in by the writers of the Reformation.

Tho cultivation of tlowcrs is now urged from a purely scientific ba*is especially in low ror unsavory localities. The perfumes of many or most flowers convert the oxygon "of tho air into ozone, which has a* powerfully oXldlZing effect upon decaying matter, and is, therefore, of great economy in matters of health. The most odorous flowers should be planted for this purpose, such as mignonette, alyssum, heliotrope, perennial pinks and lilacs. In transplanting cabbage amd other plants it is no disadvantage to have them out of the seed bod two or three days, provided the roots are kept in- a moist place and the leaves shaded. In such^cases new rootlets will start, and so soon as this occurs transplanting may begin with a certainty that nearly every plant will grow. Quite often plants that have been shipped several hundred miles come in better condition for plantiug thanlfaose taken from the coed bod five minutes before planting. — "The Christian Sodality; or, Catholic Hive ot Bees, Sucking the Honey of the Churches, Prayer from the Blossoms of tho Word of God, blown out of the epistles and gospels of tho divine service throughoutTEeTyear, collected by the puny bee of all'the hive, not worthy to b« named otherwise than by these elements of his n a m e , F .

Not only is a man jdai It?*"" forced to take an article he does not want, but to lose a large percentage of its value * because he has an order. 'Cash is cash, and the merchant who sells knows that as well as the employe who prefers it to'"store orders," or 1 he employer who prefers to give orders in placeoiW. Knowing "'"tins- the mw>\ chant adds to the price or reduces the quality of the goods which he gives "in exchange for the orders, so as to make the orders equivalent to cash. jThis conies out of the pockets of the working men. If he is getting orders instead ol cash, he is giving his labor to his employer for less money than his employer nominally pays him. So jthatin striking against "store orders" ^ e is striking against lower wages than he-seems to be getting. If his employers own the store also they profit by his orders and by a monopoly of his trade. It is a wrong system and should be abolished,—Free Press.

An Analysis of the cheese by Dr. Clark was made upon a sample'furnished by Meat Inspector Lane, who had been investigating the matter, owing to a number of cases of poisoning which had come to his nutiue. - Nothing of the nature of an organic irritant poison was discovered. : It Was concluded that the cause"'of the trouble originated from ferment ative changes ot developing fungi. . " The direct cause of the growth of this pqisonous fungus can not be explained by scientists. It is supposed to affect cheese coming from some, particular locality, or the fungus may be the result of improper storage. •• Care should be exercised in the indiscriminate use of cheese during the warm weather.— Detroit Evening Journal.

Would say in regard to the article referred to thap it is composed largely of obscure and therefore unanswerable insinuations, which I do not care to deal-in: but there is a sweeping assertion that covers everything else in the case,-and w h i c h ! claim is false in every particular, and that I can prove it to be so by eyer^. tvobability that can be brought torward on the subject, (and that largely iv Mr Harris1 own communication) to the'satisfaction of any intelligent person having any practical know^ ledge of drainage. T W can rvnve ilffy Mr: Harris' own admission tu a personal friend, and that I can prove it in another manner equally as conthat there is something wrong, and what it is. 1 leave to the intelligence of the public. Mr. Harris admitted lung ago, to .Mr Thos. Fagan, that all that J claim was correct in the-e expressive words, "that where his tile were properly covered they were all right.1' As 1 must soon'close, I wi-di to >ay a few words in regard.to the dear experience which Mr. Harris so feelingly regrets. His pecuniary loss was very close to one dollar, jind I don't think was very much considered; but when you . take his statement . that he repaired with Jackson tile, that^are handled by a personal friend of his in the village, I think the public may conclude they have'got the whole affair in a very small nut shell. Now Mr. Editor, I am interested in drainage, and belieye that every fact either in relation to the failure or success of a line of drain tile is important, and that in regard to any experience that is made public, the facts should be fully and fairly given, and in view of the tact that a report is promised in the spring, J ask Mr. Har- It is noted as" an interesting tact that the wages of sin have not .been cut down to any preceptible extent.

Now a word in regard to the tile Mr. Harris has said would not stand water. When Mr. Harris got his first load of tile, which he used at the outlet, I. had only a .small number on hand, and he had to wait for the balance until burned. Of cfche number on hand some were culled .out for various reasons, and thrown on the ground; they-a*c-4n^re^^and_as •Bound as they were last August 1 can J"rove by disinterested persons thai the ii&cts are as I have stated them. It .flhould»be wall .'known by every^'dealer in tile and >by .every man interested in drainage, that to expose a tile to the-Uvas-do; ,rain,; frost and snow of winter., is to1 jiubject it to the severest test known, and with the single exception of the outlet tile, is a test to which no tile is • ever subjected if .properly covered. N o w a word i n regard to the actuai w,iv told tiniL he had made ids reportf depth of the covering on the tile. The utiethas been lowered, and although J M 4 winter from two to four inches !]Wbove the ground is now below the sur- ,4MA, and that even with the advantage , of the lower outlet the tile for the first few feet are only from-61 to 7 'inches ,in depth; that on the road they are , only U , a n d that inside of 40 feet they -fdroB-dowa-to lO^—ItmilLihusL^seen , that the -covering is unequal and that >>while at the barrel it is covered with muclc ta^be~ top of The" ban^eTtuid t h e n saodded and. that while this /amount of muck and sods would generally l>e called as .good as three or ibur feet, of clay . and graveL at the outlet whwe the break occurred, and wherFthe soil is -clay-nndgravel, the tile are covered, as I sakL, all the way from less than 7 to t 15 inches. £ n d there u an other explanation. inregard to tl>e careful coverinsr of the tile near the barrel.

T H K M Y S T E B Y S O L V E D . V a n d e r b u r g h B o d y F o u n d , — O s c a r S c o t t Miootft I l l m » e l l . The mystery concerning the disapperancc of Vauderburg, tbe North Phdna, Ionia county m a n , missing sirjce April last, has been solved, and the solution lb attended with auother tragic death. Vauderburg, his wife and two children lived with his wife's parents at North Plaints and her fralMjrothcr,. Oacar SmtfcjfcftiL also a member of the family. Mrs. Vatidcr burg and Soott were a'tout the saruc age. A friendship sprang up between tli" i.wo which soon ripened into a suspicious intimacy, and the result was an estrangement between the husband and wife. Mr. Vanderburg and young Scott had frequent quarrelsbut thev managed to live together in semi-bartnony until the latter part of April last when both started for Edmore on business. Several d a \ s after Scott returner!,but, uia'le no attempt to explain the cause of Vanderburg's absence, and shortly after he and the "deserted'* wife were living together at E l m o r e as though naught hud occurred to mar Un'ir lives. Bat t i e authorities were quietly : ,v stigatiug the matter, and J u n e 28 \n>t a wurnuit was issued and Sio'.t arrested on suspicion c>C killing Vuueleiburg. He w..s bnmgiit from F'dmore, hut wasbuh«iqueatlv r e l e w i h o i hail.

The. body when brought to t he euiface showed deep wounds on the head. The condition of t h e body shows t h a t the murder must have been committed before Mrs. Vauderburg removed t o Edmore, though it is thought t h a t stfe was cognizant of'the? crime. Scott ^was p r e s e n t - w h e n -t-iw search, was being m a d e for the body, and seeing.Sheriff Derrick and Ms force digging in t h e ' well the guilty man drew a revolver and shot himself through the head, dying almost instantly. > . • All the credit forr the discovery of this murdar is due to the untiring efforts of Sheriff Derrick. The excitement in And around Edmore is intense. I t is difficult to say what will be further result of this double tragedy. Scott's father and Mrs, Vanderburg's mother were. married several yeTirs a^o. T h e murdered man was about 45 years of age, and besides bis unfaithful wife leaves two youug children.

Soon after young Scott suicided, and while the officers were still searching for the remains <lf Vanderburg, M r s . •Vauderburg began talking of the murder. She admitted that the body of Vanderburg was in the well, and finally confessed to being present when h^r husband was murdered. V a n d e r b u r g was killed the evening of her arrival with Scott. He had just returned from a call a t a neighbor's named Hunt, where be had hired out to work by t h e m o n t h . He seated himself on the floor, when Scott s t r u c k him on the side of Of the head with a club, crushing in the skull, then on the top, breaking in the skull both times. Scott and Mrs. V a n d e r b u r g then dragged t h e body to the well and threw it in fcead first. There are some slight indications , l h a t lLfe_.waanot extinct when Vanderburg was thrown into t h e well. Mrs. Vanderburg -.and Scott together filled u p the well to a depth of some six fee* above the feet of t h e body and then threw in some old stumps.

Though poor in some states the general harvests will be good. In Michigan the crop will bo 80 per cent, of an average ci»p. The winter here was very hard, but less of the wheat was frozen than was expected. The harvest will begin in about 10 days. The crop in Michigan is better than that hoped for In southern Ohio the crop has turned out far beyond expectations. The weather has been very favorable on the whole, the. winter doiut, little damage to the wheat. The crop will be about 80 per cent, and the harvest begins this week. In northern Indiana the crop is about the same as Michigan - 80 per cent. The winter -WHS favorable but the crop is turning out better than was expected, and farmers feel much encouraged. T H E one who has teartreti^o profit by the experiences of the past has mastered one of life's /most useful and hardest lessons, in the acquirement of which strength is gained for the conflicts and temptations which come with advancing years. 1Tis strapgo that the young of the nineteenth century are not more ready to profit^ by the experiences of others so dearly bought..

At Ootton Picking b y Machinery, A correspondent of the New York Tribune, writing from Charlestown, S. C , gives tho following account of a remarkable southern invention: A recent invention, which promise*, if successful, to revolutionize the chief industry of tho southern states and to have an important beariug on a loading branch of American and Eingsh manufactures, w about to bo subjected to extensive and thorough tests, the result of which will be awaited with eagerness. This device aims to do for cottou what the reaping machine does for wheat and other small grains: harvest a matured crop much more quickly and cheaply than is possible by hand labor. If it succeeds in doing this it will not be surprising if tho new invention gives to the material prosperity of tho southern slates somathing of the same impulse which the less recent one lent to the development and wealth of the grain-growing west and northwest. One might even venture to say that if this machine proves to be what its inventor expects, its influence on the destiny of tho south will be scarcely less than that of the invention of the cotton gin on the institution .of slavery. Ingenuity has long been at work to construct a machine which will harvest cotton successfully. No less ihan ninety-six inventions besides the one here referred to have been patented ;but all of them, apparently, have been failures. Tho inventor ot this one, how ever, declares that his is the first wh'ch discriminates between the open and unopened bolls, and leaves the plant unharmed after tho tibre has been plucked. This is so nearly like ihe exercise of kumau intelligence and skill that,- in a purely mechanical contrivance, it would be incredible witlout full and fair demonstration. Mrs. Haynasworth, sister of President Arthur, while in South Caroliaa, a few weeks ago, saw the machine, and spoke of it as "the eight wonder of the world " A young South Carolinian, named Mason, h*s beeu studying fchia nubioofrfor nine years. Not until 1882, however, did ae hitjuppn the essential principle of his-^^3i$«-JLvQne of his tfi^iohinet- 3b» sufficiently completed last sTmfeyafto* a trial, in a cofNion field nearSumtei S. C.

And these rods project ENSIONS T O A L L so far that those on ©no shaft overlap ttose on the othor.

These hollow "picking stems," an inch and a half in diameter, and made of smooth polished brass, are pierced with numberless oblong holes, through which barely prctrude sharp crooked teeth, so delicately adjusted that a hand or non-fibrous substance may be passed over the surface of the rod without catching. But when they come in contact with the fibrous subtents of an open boll, they take 'hold and with a twisting motion tear them out of the pod. As the shafts revolve, the horizontal rods carry their silken freight backward and around to tho outside of the machine. The teeth aro then reversed and drop their burden into boxes, whence an elevator takes it to a bag at the top and rear of the aiachine. These bags contain about Reventy- iive pounds, and when filled aro detached by the driver and thrown off. Mr. Masorf is only twonty-^nine years of age. and is a native of Sumptor.

An abolition reunion and celebration of the semi-centennial of the pro-slavery riots of 1834 in New York city, took place in that oity July 4, in the Free Baptist church on Twenty-fifth street. One of the most-4nteresting features was the reading of the following letter from thepoet vVSnttier: ^--^'AMESBrRy, Mass., July 2, 1884. Dear friend—I wish, for the sake of being with you at the semicentennial of the anti-slavery meeting of 1SS4, that the shadow on the dial of life could run backward 10 years more. The heavy burden of years*compels me to forego tho pleasure of greeting you in person; and 1 can only'bo with'you in spirit and sympathy, thanking God for the great deliverance of our beloved country fioni the curse and shame of slavery and for the wonderful progress of the emancipated race. They are not yet in the full enjoyment of their civtT rights in many sections and they need still the care, and labor «f love which Mr. Mason discovers a chance to mrike further improvements he can daAo beioie_ cotton picking beeomes/geueral elsewhere. Staio authorities all over the South havo yiven /notice to tho Southern Cotton Uarrester Company, which is back of Mp/Mason, that holds willbe reserved atthe various state fairs this year foi>'practical exhibitions of this invention, and that gold medals will be awarded' for all successes. Little has^ appeared in the newspapers about the inver.tiou yet; but widespread interest is erinced by interrogatory letters from all parts of the country, and especially from planters. No machines are yet made for sale, nd no hint is .given as tc the probable price. Both for his own credit and proiit Mr. Mason wishes to be sure that his invention is perfoct before he gives it to the world. But from what has already been accomplished, he believes that, operated by one man and one >r two horses, his harvester will do the work of forty or fifty held hands also died taking of these cherished articles gave so keen u.huit, thai its specie,! paiu yet survives. She still tells how. for the third time, shocarno'l the.money with which to pay for those spoons, aid how they were conceded to her only on her payment ot their money value: One ot her descendants of tho third generation related these facts to me the othor day. They aro still vivid to. the mind of the venerable woman, who dwells on tho injustice of the law to women. The spoons and the personal property of>a wife or widow now belong ty her, but the husband still has the lifeuse of the real estate TJf~iiis wife, and her children often live at great disadvantage, deprived of what is rightfully but not legally theirs. • • * • Mr. Beecher S h o e s a H o r s e , A few days ago the Rev.

At«"cTub dinner in New York recently, an examining surgeon related the following incident, showing how the Arrears Act developed pensioners out of sound a n d undeserving men. During the war he was surgeon of an infantry regiment. When the regiment first went into battle he observed, fitting behind a big,.'tree, at a safo distance from the tighting-line, tho captain of one of the companies. " W h a t are voti doing here, cautuin?" asked the doctor. "1'l'n not iecling w e l l , " replied the oilicer, in a doletul voice. /The surgeon was too busy looking rtfter the wounded to stop and inquire as to his compuiint. A few weeks later the regiment again got under lire, and the surgeon found the captain skulking benind a barn. "Hbllow! sick again!*" ho exclaimed. "Well, the fact is, doctor, I ' m not exactly sick. I may as well own u p that I'm a coward. -There's no Help for it.- I t must bo cons'itutional. Now doctor, what's thu use of my staying in; the army?

Hotor many schemes no less dishonest have succeeded through the coinplasianue of examining surgeons, less honest than the narrator of this_ incident, could only bo ascertained by a thorough overhauling of the pension list a n d a reexamination of the entire army of pjmsionera.
