I All 4he jurf In the trial of Da» ilolcoO|b were intketr place* at nine o'dflew on tnV morning of November 24. Julia Reese could not be found to continue ber testimony, and the people put John Gibson on the stand. Gibson sold a pair of Boston rubber company boots to Judd Crouch on November 21, 1833 Judd afterwards paid for the boots; said be wanted them for bis father. Sheriff Wiatfey made the the trip to Ogemaw county and found that Holcomb bought a 88 Smith A Wesson revolver at Lansing, la an interview with witness and Detective Harris lu the latter's roem Holcomb owned that he bought such a revolver but couldn't tell of whom or on what street he bought it- Witness afterwards saw a pair of Boston company's boots at Holcomb's house; they were nearly new and belonged to Dan. Witness didn't think the boots he taw and the tracks about the house corresponded. The defense objected lowliness' stating how Holcomb acted at the revolver Interview, and the court held the matter la abeyance. Julia Reese was recalled and continued her testimony. She said Policy took supper v. itli the family on the night of tbe murder, and that no one left the house after supper except to go to the barn. After supper they oil t>at to tbe sitting room, until about nine o'clock when witness retired. She knew that a peddkr had stayed at the Crouch house a few nights before he murder, but left before Mr. Polley came, but which way he went she could not tell The night of the murder was very stormy. The doors of the Crouch housa Were never fastened. Bolles, the colored boy retired a few moments before she did, and Mr. Crouch retired before either of them. Before Mr. Crouch retired Polley said to him to go to bed and th*tln tbe morning he would buy the cattle from him Witness did not hear anything about money. She then went on to tell how soundly she slept, and said that when she awoke in tbe morning she felt sti pined and as though she had b?en drugged, and that it was several minutes before sh« was able to rise, when she arose at onee and began her household duties, and she did not think it was more than five minutes after she got up before the neighbors began to come. It caused her some surprise to see them there, but she was not alarmed until they told her what had happened. At this point Mr. Montgomery began questioning the witness, atid so sharp and deceive were his questions as to completely nonplus the witness whose testimony was considerably shaken. This is regarded as a great polut for the defense. No session of court was held on the forenoon of Nuv« 25. as the members of the bar were in Attendance'upon the funeral of the late Prosecuting- Attorney Hewlett. ~- When the afternoon session was opened the first bu&iDefs transacted was the appointment of Mr. T. £.

After witness ban told where be reside), the stranger inquired about a Mrs. Dickinson, wife of Col.Dickinson, anda<ked witness if he knew of such a person in Gayl jrd. Mason replied that he did, and the stranger said his name was D. Holcomb and that he was in Co!. Dickinson's>regtment during thd war, and he asked Mason to gl7J hi) respect to Mrs. D. Witness in turn became more confiden UaJ and told tbe stranger what he was doing up at Gaylord, and, in return for such confidence, tbe Utter went on to tell witness that he had formerly lived at or near Jackson, but lately had bought a large ranch in Ttxas, whera he now lived: thai the ranch contained ii7,000 acres; that he frequently sold huge droves of beeve* and shee^ and that he had made sales as large as $12,000 at one time. To witness,'* reply tnat he should be afraid to go about la that country with so much money upon his person tbe alleged Holcomb put hi* baud into his packet and produced a new 88 Smith A Wtieson revolver, and, remarking, "This speaks for me," offered the weapon fur -_the_. young man's inspection. Witness swore positively that the weapon was of that slae and pattern, as he examined It closely, and that be knew a pistol of the pattern when he BSW it^_aa_ he bad sold revolvers,, having some time before been engaged in the hardware trade. Mason says thev conversed up to the time tne train reached Ogemaw, where his companion left the c*r, bidding the witness good-bye, and telling htm not to forget to give his message to Mrs. D cklttfou. Witness had never seeu the man from that day till this forenoon, when, as he ex plained to Mr. Montgomery, he asked to go out on the street when court adjourned and seelf he could pfck him out of the crowd. This he din, and when a&ked to point him out by Mr. Gibson, while In the witness chair, Mason did soat once, and said Holcomb was the m*u with whom he lodeahd sat and had the conversation alluded to.

Newbold, the coaciman bigamist, whose latest matrimonial aiUauoe was with a daughter of C J. Waltoey of Detroit, and who has baen awaiting trlii lu the Toledo jail for some months nav, was convicted of the charge of bigamy Nov. 29. and remanded jdl for sentence. During tbe progress £ of the gay Lothario's wives were present witnesses. He bore the ordeal oT the __ with remarkable coolness and effrontery and waited his senteuce almost indifferently. He bade good-bye to his Detroit wife and children, promising at the expiration of his sentence to return and care for his children, but refusing ti recognize any of his various wives as entitled to such honor save. Miss Whitney. ThU immediately following the verdict of the jury. About. 10:30 o'cleck, Sunday morning, November 30, the bigamist made a desperate t ffort tn take bis life and end the fearful suspense. He took Fox* glove and then tried to beat bl« brains out against the sides of bh cell. The jail physician pronounces his case a very critical one, the outcome of which is uncertain. He Injured himseK seriously in his attempts t> dun his brains out, and suffers excruciating ajjony. It Is believed the failure of Ml** vValtuoy, bis la?t wife, to call upjn him at the close of the trial, led to this attempt on his life, as in his ravings he called for her continually. The jail physician pronounces Newbold an eoileptlc and insane, and says that if on trial for murder he would be sent to an Insane asylum at once.

Before resuming in the afternoon Juror Brown asked the judge to explain the law which authorises the confisment of the jury, as tbey were all very anxious to spend Thanksgiving with their families at home.

Beverly 8now garetestimony regarding the alleged forged insurance certificate: he said Holcomb obtained a policy on the life of Jacob Crouch, Btgufcg tbe latter's name, but added that he got Crouch's consent. Snow was a disappointment to the prosecution who intimated that he had been trifled - -withrby the defense. Tne prosecution intended to prove by Snow that holcomb had'secretly obtained said policy and forged Crouch's name. Sheriff Wlnney was recalled and testified further regarding the bullets taken fionvthe wounds of the victims. The case will be resumed the day following Thanksgiving. The testimony of witnesses on the morning of Nov. 28, was largely that of experts, who tried to prove that the bullets which did the terrible work were of 3$ calibre and that a Smith A Weston pistol of that sixe was the weapon. Frank Mason of Warren, Macomb county was called to the stand. Ma*on testified to having met Holcomb on the train between Bay City and Ogemaw at the date between October 25 and Nov. 1,18S8. The witness said that Holeomb talked of various matters, and among others the cattle business in Texas, sayhe had at one time been interested in that business in that state. Witness remarked that from what he had heard he would be afraid ta go to Texas with much money in his possession, whereupon Holcomb produced a 88 calibre 8mlth A Wesson revolver saying •that guards a man," and volunteered the Information that h* had bought It In New Orleans that fall for #19. Mason was closelv questioned on the crossexamination. He was perfectly clear, on some points, and strangely mix* don others, but in the main he substantiated all tbe statements made on the direst examination, The test! mony of Mason is regarded as important stantiated in all Its details. ' iThe crowd at the Holcomb mnrdet trial was Turned by Mr. Gibson in direct examination, \tv remainder of the afternoon was spett by Mr. Montgomery lu a cruss-txamination of Mason, and at 15 minutes past 5 okUock he said be was done fur the present, but that he didn't waut Mr. Mason to jeave tbe city vet as "he should want him on the stand again " The defense is greatly txcited over what Mason had sworn to and^witt m%ke efforts to bsiali his standing; but the prosecution say it will be Impossible to hurt the young man's reputation, as.they have letters vouching for him as an honorable man. The lawyers spent all the forenoon wrangling over the admission of the testimony of Richard Crouch, a cousin ol the late Jacob D. Crouch, an I who resides on a farm which adjoins Dan HV,- comb's. The witness, In company with another person, found some shells of 36 calibre in Dan Holcomb's woods, tbe discovery being_made lu pursuance of a search to discover the cause of SlBtol firing heard by witness, prior to tbe mur ere. All the counsel took a hand lu the arguments, the prosecution making the most determined effort th^v have yet made nave tbls class of' testimony admitted, and as strongly objected. Both Gov. Blair and Prosecutor Gibson made powerful speeches, and the court took till afternoon lo consider. The attorneys for the peoole said they could offer no further testimony today If this wa<» ruh d out.

British Medical Journal, Zulinskv ha* recently pubiahxi, in a Polish medical paper, the result ef a large series of experiments on men and animals, made for the purpose of ascertaining the physiological effect* of tobacco smoke on animals. He h as found that the smoke is a powerful poison, even in very *mall quantities. In the case of man, tobacco smoke, when not inhaled too freely, is only deleterious to a limited extent.

THE LOSS OF LUTE has already been appalling, while the condition of the survivors is terrible in the extreme. No rain has fallen in the Cumberland mountains, in which the infected district is situated, for four months, the drouth entailing not only the almost total failure of the crops, but the cutting off of the supply of water over a wide area. Difficulty was experienced in obtaining water for stock as early as 4he middle of August in some localities, but no actual suffering occurred &mong the inhabitants until abouFtbe end of September, when the ordinary sources of supply having for the most part failed, the mountaineers fore.

There veloped a peculiar disease, as deadly as- Asiatic cholera in its nature, which has since raged with terrible fatality over h«lf a dozen counties in Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky, the loss of life thus far being variously estimated at from 400 to 800. Among children and adults well up in years the mortality has been the greatest, but no class hasbeen exempt.

The vast territory of the Soudan la peopled by tor lea of Arabs of varioui tribe*, whose number U computed to be between thirty and forty millions. The Arab—ana in this nomenclature, besides the natives of Arabia proper, all the inhabitants of the northern and half. Off the eastern portion of Africa are to tcomprehended—is a singular race. |4*nd feroeious. like the savages of [fir wrest, the Arabs are endowed • * keener intellect and a highly nacrous temperament, a J characteristic which has impressed itself upon the •Spauish nation by reason of contact. Unlike, however, the aborigines of America, who are stolid, content with hunting and the gratiti ation of their natural wants, the Arabs are ever restless and aggressive, and prey upon their ilUow-beings. Although very^ iMiJplexion, they are not negroes; their mm'is coarse b ^.smooth. Their habitations are principally on the borders of the streams, ana, in the ' interior countries they sink wells, where practicable, and cluster around them, forming villages and towns, their houses consisting of mud walls and thatched, conical roofe. Living in a state of nature, their wants are but few; consequently they nre not forced to extra exertion to supply them. They live on the simplest diet. Their staple food is darru millet, which they pulverize and make into bread, very little animal food is used by them. Dates and camels' milk constitute the luxury indulged in by the well to do among them.- Their agriculture is therefore eon lined to the raising of millet and a few other farinaceous articles, such as beans, back la, or lupens, etc., in the most primitive manner. In the matter of raiment they are, owing to the nature of the climate, in a state of almost complete nudity, only a —scarf being wound lightly around their loins. Their other occupations consist in collecting ostrich feathers, tusks of elephants, senna, and ^um-arabic; the *latter is indigenous to the country, and ji extracted 'from the acacia arabica, a small tree which forms vast loreajaa the&ottest regions of Africa^^Airtbese sink, however, into insignificance compared with the ^prolTt8 in slaves, in selling whiotrfKjey are mainly engaged. Egy-ptand Arabia provide-markets ifthe disposal of their productions, as well as for the projurement of their wants, which consists of coffee, tobacco, arm a nfiri a.n^miinjtionj cotton cloth and knleknacks. The former is reached by the Nile, and the latter by the way of SuakimT~a seaport cm the Hed Sea. As the last is difficult of access, owing to the necessary land journey, the Nile is preferred. They live in a ctate of barbaric independence, under the control of petty chiefs called sheiks, who have assumed remaoy over their representative €HOW CAN YOU AFFORD TO V -> B E HARDWARE I am selling everything in my linfe CHEAPEB than any one else can afford to. <* w X * -&". r«\. ——<$>-? w T v - NY EXPENSES ARE ALMOST NOTHING. immunities by virtue of their religious character and extra sanctity. The introduction of Mohammedanism among the children of the desert did not contribute toward thoir moral and social advancement. Indeed, wherever Mohammedanism made its appearance it has exercised a most pernicious influence over its votaries, more j articularly among the Arabs. It killed all ttfcces of civilization among the andeur Egyptians, for which they were justly celebrated and to which the Greeks owed their progress. But this religion suited Arab proclivities to a nicety; it wa-* simple in creed and ministered to their brutal pass oris. Divine unity and belief in Mohammed AS the true apostle oTuod were the only •essential requirements. It encouraged polygamy and promised seventy-two* houns in the lire to come. It moreover preached aggression and aggrandizement, made it a virtue to war aga nst unbelievers, and upheld the enslavement of captives. It not only legalized their wonted vocation, but opened a regular market for the disposal oi their chattels wherever lslamism pre- TtNyptoaliar construction of society AmflMraM.Mohammedans is such as to -renflV1 *l4ave service indispensable.

Springfield Republican Asuncion Letter. On Friday morning I looked out of my cabin window to hnd that we were tied up at the most yellow wharf t h a t I ever saw. and in frout of a large barnlike building. 1 did not dream t h a i wo were at Asuncion, but going on deck found that the barn was the Cus tom-house for Paraguay, and t h a t en^w^uwen^ashojre we wera in the, city of the republicaincogfiitaT- A^v*>ry nice little city we found it to be. Not that it is pretty or pretentious, or worth visiting—but it is an enterprising, Re publican go-head place. Most of the houses are smaH and old, and are built without any regard to being on the streets. You cannot imagine a more irregular assemblage of houses, but the symmetry with which the public buildings are built offsets this. The President's house, the Government house, arsenal, barracks and Custom-house stand on wide boulevards, and with the exception of the latter, are as well-built as the similar buildiugs in any American city of the same rank. T h e word "asuncion," you know, is not Spanish for "ascension," as we used to believe and in case of the Paraguayan city is well bestowed, for it is not often South Vmerica that there can be found a ciLy that is more assuming Dolitically. socially and generally.

Situated in the warm heart of South America, it lies under the shadow of the Sierras, and between the .two great rivers, P a r a n a and P a r a g a . Into its territory there have come three and ono half centuries of sadness and misfortune.

From 1817 until 1860 first Francia and then the L.opez tyrants held the country under a cruel despotism. Then Solar, o Lopez involved the state in war with .Brazil, and after the sack of Asuncion, and the ravage nf the country, the tyrant was shot and the reign of terror gave place to s reorganization of the republic, which was modeled after the United States.

T h e Apalachioola Tribune explains the givat smoke which bus nuzzled observers for many years, and; which could be seen on any cloudless day ascending from the vicinity of the Ancilla river, in Florida. Various ell'orts hav« been made to discover the supposed volcano, while, on the other hauil, some have concluded that the smoke came from tl'ie camp-tires of some remnant of the Seminole Indians. The Times-Democrat expedition threw no light upon the mystery, th« tall grass, hogs and dense undergrowth impeding the pro^ gress of the curious. One Captain Ashor is the hero who arrived in Apalachicola on Friday, May 28, with the following information,, which puts out the Florida volcano, and the romance is Tost of the poor Seminole lingering in the land of his fathers. At the same time it adds to the attractions of the lovely land of fruits, .flowers and wonders. Perhaps from these sulphuric pools name the healing virtues which hud the foundations for the legend that in Florida flowed the waters of eternal youth. Captain Asher was in search of palmetto logs on the Ancilla river when he descried the smoke or clotttt from a point in the distance. Remembering the many reports he had heard about this smoke, lie determined to unearth this mystery, if po»,svbje^ So, calling his crew together; aiuLpickmg up t^heir traps, the party purstted their way in small boats up the Ajicilla river. They traveled up the river, or creek;—for it hardly deserves the name of river, for miles' After ascending from its mouth about twenty-tive or thirty miles, he judges, he was brought to an abrupt halt by a rock barrier in front. Upon investigation he found that the river ended ami w«s lost underneath the ground. Seeing that the smoke became more distinct at this point, and seemed Straight ahead, he had the boat hauled up to the bank and sprang ashore, determined, if possible, to pursue his investigations on foot. As he sprang on shore he gave an exclamation of surprise. Scattered at various points were huge rocks, towering many feet above his head—a thing unheard of in Florida. Mr. Asher describes some of these rocks as being as large as an ordinary dwelling and apparently hollow, containing much water. 11(¾ describes them as beirig of filthy appearance, and W h e n struck with an iron or steel instrument A mile or mimerous round bato emit thousands of sparks. two further on vv<*re seen j o c k s that were formed into sins, their sides being smooth amtT^TiT^ ^ r f tifully polished. Mr. Asher sprang upon the top of one of these basins. As his foot came in contact with the flinty substance a-hollow sound was emitted from the rock. (Jailing for a pole, and it being handed to him, he placed it in the center.'of the basin. What was his surprise on drawing the pole- to the top may be easily imagined when he discovered that the rock, being hollow, was tilled with a strong sulphuric water. Pursuing their way through the bog, sometimes up to their knees, again on hard ground .for some distance, then again scratched and bruised by the underbrush, and lighting mosquitoes that seemed to resent this intrusion of their dominion, the little party had a hard r asMumption^liluc_oi_it^I> resent[y they came to where the river issued from its unttef^ in f ground covert and pursued its way onward, to again disappear in the bowels of,the earth. Mr. Asher states that every few nun- 7 v dred yards these pools would make their appearance, and from them would issue white, misty clouds that would tance to be clouds of jnnoke. He stated that the water in these pools was as clear as crystal and filled with beautiful fish, both fresh and salt. He drank some of the water, but it was unpalatable -nauseating to the smell and'taste. He spent several days wandering around these points, a m i , he says he never before thought then; was such a place in Florida.

Witness said Kolcouib once askid him if White and Mr. Crouch kept a book betweei! them, and If tner did not and elths-r of tbem should "suddenly droo away, woul'i not things get badly mixed up<" Wit-' uci*s *aid he presumed they kept a book. On cross-examlnatlou witness s;-;id be; told Henry Wtiite of the conversation as soon as It occurred. Since leaving thevstaud on Thurso day some one had been to witcecs'house and at-ktdhlm to come up and tell what he had not stated. Edward Keczle wan put OH and stated that he was at Holcomb's the Sunday before the. murder, and he heard the shoot lag in the jEQ&ds* knd Juoii-Snd Holcomb came out of the woods without any guns or firearms In sight. The defense objected to the testimony unless the people could show that Holcomb was shooting there. Objection sustained unless the prosecution could connect defendant with it.

He visited Holcomb's house and found the pWols March 2, l&fi4, in searching the house. Found a 36 Smith & \Ve6son tenter fire. The pistol was among the clothing In a bureau drawer; found a box of center Are cartridges. He afterwards saw Holcomb and told him that Wlnney wanted to see him at the Hibbard house; at the interview Holcomb was asked it he had betn up north and admitted that he had in June and October Had been up iu all four times. The first was to see his brother, the next to buy horses, the last to Induce his brother to move down here. After eome hesitation Holcomb admitted that he had a 83 Smith-*'- Wesson 'revolver "fa" six-shooter; Said be bought It at Lansing, but couldn't say where iu Lansing. He lost ihe pistol while burning, but did not know whether in the lake or woods. 8ome discussion arose as to the admission of this testimony, and the defense asked that Harris's original report sent to the Chicago office be produced, and court ao joiirned. —John C. HarrlOfa-Pinke'-tuudetefcnye was re7" called at the opening of court, Dec. 2. He produced the_wrltten Btateny-i;, of tbe interview between himself, She1*K Wlnney and Diniel S. Hjlcomb, which Holcomb had signed. The Btate-ment was ofered In evl- [g, It contained a statement of defendant's actions and whereabouts on the night of the murder. Sheriff WinDey was recalled and stated that when "Detective Harris ask^d Mr. Holcomb if he had a 38-callber Smith <fc Wesson revolver when he went up north, Mr. Holcomb choked up and asked for water. I touched the bell to summon a boy, but Mr. Holcomb continued to choke and arose and drank out of the water pitcher standing In the wash-bowl on the stand In the bedroom." The witness identified the 38-caliber, double-action, center Are Smith * Wesson revolver which he had found in Mr. Holcomb's bouse. At the cross-examination Wlnney said that he had known Holcomb for Sears, but had never known him to choke up efore and call for water. James 8. White, father of the murdered man, was tbe next witness put on the stand. His testimony was merely a statement of the relations existing between his family and the family of Jacob D. Crouch, and a statement of the papers found in the bureau drawers the morning after the murder. Holcomb took possession ot the contents of the package, with the exception of some articles belonging to - Ella Shannon of Liberty, an inmate of Holcomb's family after the murder, was next sworn. She testified to having looked up the clothes for the washing^the Monday morning after her arrival In the ""'boys" room she found clothing wlth-blood spots on them, and said that Judd Crouch and James Foy came and took the clothes away. The bloody clothing she had seen Judd wear before the murder, but the bloody shirt she. had never seen before. She further testified to a remark made by Judd to Foy that l'i guess by we had better go up stairs and get them clothes," and it was, dofle.—She heard a coav> rsation two weeks after the murder between Holcomb and his wife, Holcomb iLqulred of her "Where is that box of papers?" She replied "Never mind about the papers now, I have them in sate keeping." She had seen Holcomb and Bvron L. Crouch examining papers together, and the room in which they were seated was most always locked. She further testified that during her stay at Holcomb's there had been no butchering. She testified to an attempted intimidation by Decectlve Baker, who told her that unless she changed her testimony she would be shot. Wllford White, a brother of the murdered Henry White, described the tracks which he saw about the house the morning after the murder. Edward A. Angevlne described the tracks about the house, and the blood snots on the floor In Henry white's room and also described the rubber boot marks. On the opening of court la the Hokomb case on ths 8d teat, argument was heard at to ths admissibility of Keosle'a evidence 1B relation to whet ha saw In Holcomb's weods. The eovt rated ft ott. Giles Hunt, who lives about four miles from the Crouch farm was sworn. Saw the tracks, and tiiiiincd those near the railroad. They were made, by a rubber boot or shoe, and in size about 8 or 9, and there were creaslngs upon the soles. The tracks pointed west. Witness also saw the tracks under the parlor window. He thought tbey were made bythe same "SHia footra«" the other tracks. Witness also saw Judd with shells in his hand while at the house. He advised Judd to close up the the house. Harrison Snow was called to the stand. He told of the appearance of the rooms and the bodies of the victims aud gave other testimony of minor importance. Bat one thing he did say was to express bis doubt of the truth of Bollt-s' story about the chest. Witness saw the chest and there were boohs and clothing piled in it and on it. Witness asked Solies if he put the clothes back lu the chest when he got out, and Bollns saiJ.no, and admitted. In reply to a remark made by wltnees to the effect that he didn't believe" he (Bollee) was in the chest, that "1 was awful niseereu, aud I tnit;k I was in there sure. If I wusn't In there I don't know where I was." Wttuess said Mrs. White always took charge of papers wheu he had seen business doun lu the hjuse. There was blood upon Mrs. White's face of tbo same kind arrhat npoirthB bed^lothing. December4 the prosecution put Harrison Snow on the stand ac;aia and argued that he was com jetent to Rive an optniou as to how the blood canvj upon the clothing of Henry White and his wife. The court allowed-him to answer and Suow Bald he thought 11» e blood came from the wound In Whlre's mek. Henry S. Sm'th of Clluton county, sworn: Saw Dan liolcomb at William Holcomb's lu Ogemaw In April and again tn October, 18S3. D*n said he had been there a week. Wltnebs made a "drive" for deer the next day, and Uaa was going out on the lake in a boat, but backed out, aud spoke of shooting any deer that might swim past, with a revolver he had. This was in the mornlDg. When witness returDedat sundown Holcomb was at the sams place, having been there all day, and then claimed he had lost his revolver the day Mp.Le4rhe„,ih,p;njjhl,. Didn't know whers he had lost it, but thought^he did so in a "burning."- Witness never saw the pistol, and Dau made no mention of the loss when they got home. Witness mentioned it to William, V-ut never heard Dan say anything" about tbe pistol being for a present, to William. Saw Holcomb ^up there again. He came again two weeks t afterwards, In the night., and'lef t at daylight the next morning, William accorrpanted him. CharlesrWihgleson had said Holcomb wanted to know if witness had said Dau wouldn't allow Eunice's baby to see the light, and also asked if witness thought Judd could do the murder. Said it took a cool hand »nd bull head to do the j_>b. Witness thought Judd too big a fool, and Dan paid "Judd is no fool by any means. Prosecutor Gibson eald .their eidi bad now gotTEhrough with tbisbranch of the case, and would go into the section connecting Judd Crouch and James Koy with the murder. The defense insisted that tne prosecution should call Dr. Williams. Gibson Bald Williams was Holcomb's family doctor, and they did not need him. The defense thought the people should be obliged by tbe court to put Wiiiiams on, but tbe court said he couldn't do that. Finally it was agieedto produce the witness, but Judge Grldley said he didn't want to hear any more arguments to-day as he was 111, but he could preside if witnesses were called. Dr. Nathan Williams was put on the stand lu the afternoon. He reached the scene of the murder about nine o'clock and was the first phvslcian there. First looked at body of Jacob Crouch, and gave it as his opinion that death occurred about BIX hours before. Death must have been instantaneous. The body lay In a natural position. Also saw Pulley's body. The bed was badly disarranged, and the body was not in a natural position, witness gave a description of the In the Holcomb trial arguleg on r.he question qf tousplrai'v. Gibs-Hi t*nl'l ih«, jir'^ecution liouldgo no further without t-rln^ng Jadrt sod Koy iuto the case The,-hai s o*n bat Judd bought th" famous rubier hi .or* for Holcomb and that Foy w»s tr>ing to buy 38 calibre cartridge*— while Iloicomb claimed uo such pistol was ever there. Ho s»M.'l e people mvded no evidence ot conspiracy; a ci n:»-rt of action on the part of those who would be beuthtedby Crouch's death wiseumgu The jury must determine If a conspiracy ex is ed, not the court. He also said he contd show concert of action all through if allowed to do so. Wilton said the people had given no evidence up >n this poiut v.or would thty do so, uotwlthsiadlng they promit-ed to. He said they had got noue of tue alleged conspirators nearer than two milts from the tragedy on that night, and nevtr would. The arguments were c nitlnued throughout the day, and a ikclslonou this pjlut will probably not be mado tuls week. The entire session of court on the ttth was occupied by the lawyers in the discussion of the conspiracy theorj. A deulsiou will probably be rendered ou Mondav.

Tue room of Mr. and Mrs. White was. in good order, and' the oethelotj^ng was not disarranged at all. Several witnesses were called who did not respond. Samuel Crawford was at last out on the stand. He told of a conversation with Holcomb after his wife's death. Holcomb said he did not care for himself but he wished his wife could have lived long enough t ) have seen the guilty parties brought to justice, and added, "It w*s that damued n b •[ that killed my wife," but mentioned no names.

Owing to gross carelessness en part of the clerk who rel i e v e d i t a t tho factory, it was hot seen | by.'.'<menntil this morning. Hoping ,>thatthe"'omis3ion has caused you no inconvenience, I am, Truly, yoursf Ralph Huyler." Tho ho\ was directed in Wolcott's handwriting. When the wrappings were removed she recogonizod an olive wood caskoi lined with sandal wood which she had given him two Chnstmases ago. It contained all tbe letters she had ever written to him. His retention of them had been her main stay of iwpe in the months of silence that had succeeded tho Christmas proposal. A note from him lay on the top^ "-UFAR REBEKAH: Up to this time attiro, capering on tho outside of tho group. "It was like a chapter from an English novel, so very picturesque and feudal!" was a remark so often aired by Mrs. Wolcott Huyler at the reception party that evening, that it becamo a little stale before the la9t repetition. "A brilliant, dashing woman, with the air of one who has spent her life in fashionable society!" agreed her now acquaintance in discussing her. Tho Holmes'sisters kept closely indoors at such seasons, as there was danger of meeting her or Wplcott; but the sound of their voices in talk and laughter floated in at the cottage windows many times during the three days of their visit at the great house. "She is a hard, heartless creature, and I hate her!" said Genevieve, on one of those occasions. "I know he married her for her money, and nothing else." / Rebekah1 s soft hand touched her companion's lip. "Don't let us talk about them, pet! Itfwill do no good.l" At another time, as the elder sister lowered the book iron: which she wajs reading aloud, interrupted by Genevieve's petulant gesture, she saw the sensitive face dark wjth disgust. Mr, and Mrs. Wolcott were seating out on a horseback ride. "She called him Woolly, dear!" cried Genevieve, wrathf^flly. Fancy being married to a woman who would give ber husband a name she might apply t« atame shegp.

Women as brave and pious^ as she gice way under a continuous strain upon, heart and nerves, through the weakness of the flesh. R^bekah's faultless physique was the faithful ally of her will. The Huylecs were infinitely relieved at her "sensible way of taking things." Like most good naturediy '1-seltisn people, they dreaded the sight of suffering, a*>d appreciated the truth broadly stated in the husband's words: "It would have been a plaguey, uncomfortable thing had the girl cut up rough; gone about paio and peaking and hysterical, making Wolcott feel like a villain and me like a sneak for not' taking her part." / The worthy couple went up to town for three months the next winter.

The governess was not "worn out" by the time Mr. and Mrs. Huyler were driveh but of town by spring sultriness. The grkin of her temper and constitution was too firm for that,|buK, she was quite ready for ibatement of toil, glad to settle back into the lower groove of school-room tasks and villago music lessons. "Aunt Margaret told me, yesterday that she and Uncle Huyler expect to spend the -whole of next winter IM tho city," said Genevieve, one mid- May day, as the two were gathering water cresses in tho meadow. "She says the children and the house were bettor managed when she was away than t.hay are hy her. For all that. I Their work went forward pleasant- j ly. Tne morning was balmy, The meadow-grasses were fragrant from ihoju8t dried clews), the brook rippled merrily among tho swaying stems and rootlets of thu wild salad. Mrs, Hnyler was particularly fond of it, and her neices had planned a little surprise gift for her, as tho end of their Saturday forenoon excursion. Their basket tilled, they sat together on a broad stone under an apple tree that sent snowy fleets of bloom down the stream with every breath of air, talking cheerfully, until the clock iu the steeple of the village church struck eleven. "Ic mu9t be safe to go now." Rebekah arose and gave her hand to her sister. "Yon say tho horses were ordered for tou o'clock?" "I heard Wolcott tell Jjhn to have them at thedoor at that time, and that thoy would not be back until one." Mrs. ,Huyler was not in the house. The housekeeper "believed she was in the garden," and the girls, leaving the contents in the basket in her keeping, went across the lawn to look for their aunt Tho grounds wer« extensive, the garden borders already attractive with spring flowers and budding shrubs. The pair strolled slowly, enjoying j freshness and perfume and sunshine,, until, turning somewhat suddenly the corner of a summer-house, they came upon a group of four people sitting at a table. ' ' A game of curds was in full progross; wine and biscuits were on^tho table; the players were Mr. Hurler, Wolcott, Aunt Margaret and Wolcott s wife. The apparition of the sisters produced marked and varying effects on the members of tho party. Aunt Margaret pushed, back her ohair invo^ntarily, and retreated iiasexal paces/as if in disavowal of participation in tne business of tho hour. Mrs. Wolcott, who was in riding co3tume, tittered/behind her cards, her black eyes fullo/. malicious amusement, surveying from the shadow of the hat brim the girh> in their simple morning gowns. Ralph Huyler's tipsy embarrassment /took a yet more offensive form, leaning back in his chair, he caught .Rebekah's dress with the. halid that held his cards. His voice was thick and coarse. "/You're just in time to save this br*y_from being cleaned out entirely ! 1/ve tieecod him pretty nigh to the |/skin!" chinking a purse taken from the table.

Flushed, angry, dumb, Wolcott extender4, tbo glass toward the hand that did not move to take it Rebekah's clear, sweet eyes met his in wondering rebuke for a second, then she turned away in silence, Genevieve clinging to her. "What is it? On, fcister! vr the matter?" whispered tho child", terrified as much by the tremor and fuoceeding rigidity oiJiebekah's framo as by her uncle^s condition and language. "Hush, dearest! Come with mo'." She hurried her out of sight and hearing of the party, through the garden and over the meadow to the »eat under tbo apple tree. Then she sat w- her trembling ohar-ge into her arms, fast tears raining upou the sightless face. •*On, Vieval he is not my Wolcott! there is scarcely a look left of tho man I loved!

James came into the oil regions in the early days of the ex'citemert in Oil Creek. He wai an odd genius and performed lemarkable and puzzling feata as a spiritualistic medium throughout the region. His Bounces made many converts to spiritualism among leading oil operators. He was very poor, but managed to dabble a little in oil and oil territory. One day in the summer of 1868 he took into his confidence a few of the moneyed men who had become believers in spiritualism and told them that a spirit had revealed to him the existence of a vast deposit of petroleum in a locality where no one had yet thought of searching for it. He said that he had been stopped on the road by the spirit which took him from his wagon and conducted him like magic across fields and through forests to a wild spot in the vicinity of Pleaaantville, where they rested. Presently the earth opened and an immense cavern yawned before theui. Into this James was led by the spirit. They journeyed down into the earth for a long distance, and finally, the spirit brought James to the margin of a lake of petroleum of unknown depth and extent. Speechless with amazement James gazed on that apparently boundless store of wealth for a few minutes when the, spirit led him back to the surface. The mouth of the cavern closed and the' spirit vanished. James assured the men to whom he contided the wonderful intelligence that tke great deposit of petroleum had been revealed to him by the spirit in order that the faiihful might prcfit by the knowledge. He Eolicited them to lose no time in furnishing the means to develop the territory thus marvelously placed within their reach. The capital was forthcoming at once and James commenced operations. He put down a well on the spot where he said the spirit had led him into the navern. At the dep»h of 830 feet the drill entered a rich oil-bearing sand, which responded with a 150 barrel well. The news of this strike set the oil country wild, and in a short time Pieasantvilie wvs surrounded with wells which were produo-- ing more oil than all of the old oil districts, and Pieasantvilie became the greatest oil producing country thei> known. The James combination put down rive wells, every cne cf which wad a big producer. Oil was then selling for more than $8 a barrel, and although the life of the new oil field was comparatively short, the operators all made large fortunes. James left the eil country after the Pieasantvilie held became exhausted worth $500,000, Ho never came back and it is said that he lost the most/of -money in unfo-tunate lnvestnfents on the Pa. itic coast Tho spirirualistJ? never los! tikith in his story of the supernatural discovery of the petroleum Take': - - — Skeptic-< beli'.*viMI that James' knowledge^' : •*»•;"_*, which was considerable, -a ioU him to Relieve from" tho character of tho P!«"*-wntville territory that petroleum u <<->ubtedly existed there, and that he it mted the story of the spiritual revelatu- . to induce moneyed believers in ths uoctrineto furnish means to test his theory. nave His way in spite of my struggling and fretting!"

Owing to causes over which they had no control Negroes wore a thousand years behind the age, and if tho government should Guild a schoolhou*e on every hilltop for freemen and maintain schools one hundred years, tbe government could not atone for the wroDg it had done in allowing the Negro race to have been -denied opportunities for education. disturbance, bur the people awaited the result patiently and quietly. Nothing could more strikingly illustrate the temper of the American citixen and his loyalty to law, nor more signaliv demonstrate the strength and' wisdom of our political institutions. FOHKltiN KKLATIOK8- Our relations wH& foreign powers coutloue to be amicible. The Congo question is commented upon as one of great international mportance, and the ilch piusrectlVirrradeT* tbe Congo valley leads to the couvictioii that it should be open to all nation^ ou equal terms. The neeeseary legislation to make effective the Mexican commercial treaty is recommended- as one of the first measure* to claim attention from congress. Tbe Nl«'»raguan treaty recently concluded, wbteti autLorixeii the construction of a canal and railway by the 8an .luan and Lske-Ntearagaa route, the president believes, will command universal approval at home and abroad. To tbe United States the commercU) and political advantages of the treaty cannot be 07er-^s>tiuiated. The approval of the new Spanish commercial treaty, which will toon be submitted to the Senate", is urged. The question of International cop\ right Is brought Ui the attention of congress. THE SEUTRAXITT LAWS. The president recommends an enlargement of the scope of the neutralty laws to cover acts of hostility committed within our territory and -aimed at the peace of friendly nation^ He sees no reason why overt preparations in this country for the commission of such criminal actB should not be alike punishable whether intended to be committed in our own country or a foreign country with which we are at peace. The reorganization of the diplomatic and consular service Is recommended. 8TC1' COINING 8ILVBK COINS. The president concurs with the secretary of the treasury in recommeudiDK the immediate suspension of the coinage of silver dollars and'the' issuance of's'llve; certificates. The fact that of the |lS5,UO0 0O0 coined durluu the past six j ears but liitle more than $40,000,010 are in actual circulation, seems to furnish a cogent argument for tbe repeal of the statute. ABOLITION Oi" BXCI3B TAXES. Go renews his recommendation oil 18S2 favoring the abolition of all excite taxes except thoae' relating to distilled spirits. If these taxes be abolished tbe revenue still remaining to the govemmenfwll! Lot only 6Ulli.ee to meet its reasonable expenditures, but.will afford a surplus large enough to pera.it such tariff reseem adflsable wfaeu the retrea'ieB shall have shown in what quarters those reductions can be ncost judiciously effected. FOREIGN TKAD8. The President says teat, although fully sensible oi tne objections to be made to the appointment of a commission to ascertain tho most effective means for increasing our foreign trade, he."till believes this to'be 1 he most speedy and ifflcacfous method. He indorses the reccmniendaticn of the secretary of the treasury favoring liberal subsidies to mall steamship lines as an incentive to investment of American capital lu American uteamshtps, ana declares thai unletsthat course be pursued our foreign carrying trade must remain as it Is tcday, almost exclusively lu the' hands of foreixners. NATIONAL HANK CIKCULATION On the subject of a b«sis for national uank circulation he ea}s: "The three percent bonds of the government to tho amount of mere than $1UO,100,000 have, since my last annual message, been redeemed by the treasury. The boodM of'tbat issue etill outstanding amount to a little over $300,000,000, about one fourth ot which will be retired, through the operations of tbe sinking fund, during the comtLg year. As these bonds still continue the chief basts for the circulation cf the national banks, the question how to avert. tl:e contraction of the currency caused b^their retirement is ot\e of consiantly increasing imp o r t a n c e , I t stems t o be genera^y conceded l-dlrfcted, and—th*—i that tbe law governing this matter exacts larged policy has thus far from trie baDks excessive r,fcurlty and that upon their present bond deposists a larger circulation than is now allowed may be granted with safety. I hope that the bill which passed the senate at the last session, permitting the issue of notes equal to the face value of the deposited bonus, will commend itself to the approval of tbe hou:vj of representatives." SEABOARD DEFJ2N3E8. Mr. Douglafes argued that woman suffrage would h a r e tho eff< ct of purifying politics a$ womrin had punlied litfcra- Concerning seaboard defenses for our cities, recommended by the secretary of war, the message says: "Tho time has'j now come when such defenses* can b» prepared with confidence that they will not prove, abortive; aria when the poKstole result of delay in making such preparation 1¾ seriously considered, delay seems inexcusable. For the most important cities—thosrj whose destruction or capture would in: tt national humilltation-- adequate defeases, inclusive of guns, may b*5 made by the gradual fxpendltu 000, a sum rajch less than a victorious enemy could levy as a contribution.

RESTORING THE NAVV. Concerning the reconstruction of our navy, the President says: k,In this, the last of tho stated messages 3 shall have the -honor to transmit to the congress of the United States, I cannot too strongly urge upon Its attention the duty of restoring our navy, a^ rapidly BS possible, to the hljih stute of efficiency which 1 ormerly characterized it.

Ml'ORTANCa OF TORBTGN TRADl BXTBN8ION.. The president devotes much upuee to a con siderailon of the |*olirv of tbe government regarding the extension of our foreign trade The main conditions of thepfoniem are tbu* stated: We area people apt in mechanical pursuits and fertile in invention; we cover a vast extent of territory, rich 1» aurlcultural products and iu nefcrly ull the raw materials needed for successful manufacture; we have a system of productive establishments more than sulnelent to supply our own demands; tbe wages of labor ar<- uowhere eis *o *reat; tbe scale of llviug of our artisan classic is such as tends to secure their personal coin fort and the development of those higher moral and Intel lectual qualities thut go to the,making of good citizens; our eyHtem of tux ami tariff legislation is yielding a revtnue* in excess of the present needs of the government.

The problem is complex and can be solved by no MDgle measure of. innovation or reform. The countries of the American fontim-nt a:id the adjacent islands are, for the United dtates, the natural inartsof supply and demand. It is trom them we should* obtain what we do not produce in sufficiency, and it U to them that the surplus productions of our fields, our mills.and our workshops should flow, and under conditions that will equalize or favor them in comparison with foreign competition. FOUR PATHS SUGGESTED. "Four paths of DOll.cy," the president says, ''seem to "point to this end: First, a series of reciprocal cominenca) treaties with tLe countries of America, which shall foster between us and them an uuhimip. red move; ment of trade. The conditions of thea.d treaties should be the full admission of such • merchandise as this country does not r reduce, iu return for l he admission free, er under a favored scheme of duties, of our own products —the benefits of 6uch exchange to apply only to goods earrled under the flag of the purues to the contract; the removal ou botn sides from the vessels & J privileged of all tonnage dues audnationaT imports, so tnat those vessels may ply unhindered between our ports and those ot the other contracting parties, though without improving upon the reserved home coasting trade, and removal or Reduction of burdens on the exported products_ ol these countries coming"wlVhirTTHe TvTienTs' of the treaties-aa.I the addition of thfl technical restriction and penalties with which our intercourse with these countries 1« ar present hampered, Hecouuly,' the establishment of—the e*oui?ular eervlra of itie—t'uued "As the, time draws ulyh when 1 urn toretire frr-m the public service I cinuot tefrain trom expressing to.thii members of the naihnal :li-t:lblMture with whom I have beta brought into personal and < fli.-ial iutircourse my ••• lucere. appreciation or their unfailing eourtesv und of tluir hannonl'ius co-operation with the executive iu K> i»>tny measures calculated to promote the best interests of the nation, ttu i to my fellow citizens generally I Hcknowh dge a deep aeu»e of obligation for the itipporr, they have accorded me In my admlidstrs'lon of the ixecu'ive department fo attinshlon". utamp: BOX 485, States on a salar.ed footing, thus jcriuitiiiig the relinquishment of consular feet?, not only asrespecis vessels under tho naiiona!

As mariv of the countries furnibh no bullion to M I o i i j B a n s Gold F i e l d s . A correspondent of the Detroit t'roo PresH, writiu^ from Ishpeming, saya: To this region of wonderful mineral possessions, in the way of iron ore and copper, there is about to be added a cappiog of a golden kind that will appropriately embellish all else of metalliferous character found here. There is strong evidence of the truth of this now to oe had at the Ropes gold mine. which is situated about four mi Ins to the norih of this place. The rind is credited to Mr. Julius Ropes, postmaster of this city, who, some threo years ago, while exploring a group of serpentine rocks—also found by him—came across this vein of e]uartz, which cropped out from the hillside. Uo secured specimens, assayed thorn, and found them rich in gold. The property he secured from the Lake Superior Iron company, it containing 160 acres. ' S o m e "t-xplonug was done, going to further prove tho vein was in proper place. A company known as tho Ropes (ioA and Silver Mining Company was then formed to develop tho discovery. It was tedious work. Peoplo doubted the existence of the metal in paying quantities—in fact the majority claiuitii there was no gold there ai|all. Finally a five-stamp mill was purchased, placed in operation, and a fair test made of tho rook. A Jiundred tons gave $16 per ton, and showed something like $6 50 per ton had escaped in tho tailing. Then the raining men of this country saw there was something in all the talk that had been made. Capital c*m*v in, and the result was that; two weeks ago to-day a new mill with twenty-live stamps, ten Vruo vanuers, a Blake crusher and two engines were put in motion. Up to this date about 280 tons of rock have been treated and have yielded about $18 per ton, with $4 yet getting away in the tailings. When wo state that this rock can be treated for $3 per ton—mined and milled lor that—and that tho mine could easily keep 100 stamps working", -one begins to realize that tlie first gold [ -*iff jj HfffiHe iff Michigan hjgi'^W'excSe bright future. The quartz is of a •'kindly'1 character, is finely banded and rich in its wealth of gray »nd yel -teew copper ores, andiron pyrites,which carry gold. A shaft ninety feet in depth has been sunk, two levels have boon Btarted, which have followed the strike of the vein^i distance of 180 foot, and ground will rapidly be opened up, it being the intention J o increase the stamping lacilities by one-half the coming spring. The vein shows an average width of eight, feet. A stream of water sufficient to supply 100 stamps runs alongside the mill. Timber in abuudaucej grows on tho company's property. A dozen houses for the use ot the miners and their families have been built this summer.__ the common stock, the surplus production of our mines and mints might thus tie utilized an<l a step taken tow aid the' general reinoue. tlzatlon of silTer. To the uecouiphshuieut of these ends, EO far us they cau be atUiuea by reciprocity treaties, the negotiaoioua already cor.cludeu and now in progress have been oh t h U - c o received .warrants the belitsf that its operation will ere long embrace all or nearly ull the countries 6t thfs hemisphere.

'WITKOOTMEDICIME. Great interest is being taken in the now (to this region)1 enterprise aud everyone has tho freedom " of the milf and "the mine. There can be no doubt about the great valuts ot the property, sufficient having already been done to indicate its worth and longevity. -The west of the Ropes 1,000 feot the Phillips Company, composed of Chicago capitalists, began work last Monday by starting an adit into the hill. They have alrtady found the continuation of the Ropes vein at this point and are highly elated over tneJ rind. It will doubtless prove all that its friends expect of it. Reports of other discoveries of goldbearing quartz veins are numerous, thoughtHg&e of thbreported "bonanzas" will doubtless prove like many in the Western fields—salty. Care is being taken to avoid this, however, by the local press. Mining men are looking over the range with the view of finding other veins, and explorers, despite tho snow, are numerous. The Deer Lake Company has a shaft upon the Ropes vein, 1,800 feet east, has resumed active work recently. The Negaunee, Gold and fcilverCompany has property a mile and a half east of the Rope's, upon which some work has been done.

A company of worktngmen In Cleveland, Ohio, are trying to organise a colonization society on the co-operatue plan, and have written to the Michigan commissioner of immigration to see if 10,000 acres of land in one block can be obtained in this state, the aame to be paid for as it is settled on. The members pay to the society not less thai t t t t year, and when enough money Is in the treasury to send off five or more families, there is a drawing by the members, and the lucky ones are provided with transportation, an 80 acre farm foe etch family, tools, seeds, provisions and everything necessary to give them » fair start In return the settlers give the society a mortgage on their farms for the amount which the society may have given them in excess of the sum they paid la as dues.. The society thought they could get land for $1 25 an acre, but the commissioner of immigration has informed them that land suitable for agricultural purposes cannot be bad for less than H an acre, or $40,000 for> the ,0,000 acre tract. At $35 a year, it will take 100 families 16 years to pay for the land. The upper peninsula is the only place in the state where each a large tract can be obtained. • m '• ItllcUlgan's Total Vote.

The annual meeting of the Patrons of Husising on the 10th, and Jacob Hutcbine, an eccentric old man from Spring Arbor, swore to seeing Judd's peculiar tracks In the Holcomb field, leading toward the Crouch house, and s*id he found them there the day after the murder, John Thomas was u«rt sworn. fle-*awtb* tracks in the wheat field, and measured the length. The left boot was about one inch longer than the right and a little narrower. Witness had noticed Judd's traclv and from appearances thinks the tracks he saw were made by a man who walked ai Judd Crouch walked. The right foot made a deep Impression, but the left was a natural one. From the appearance the tracks could not have been made by natural feet Witness was closely cross-examined. Harry Hague also noticed that one foot was louaer than v the other, and that the email foot made a deeper impression than the other, atd that the feet came together going down hill. Wltnesss thought Judd would make such tracks. Had eoticedJudd'sgait since the murder with * reference to It. Accompanying the tracks made by the one with the hme leg was another track, but as that was on the sod it was not as plainly discernible. Witness saw tracks in the woods made by the name boot as the lame one. Harry Hague was tae first witness sworn on the morning ot the 9th. He.first saw Holcomb the morning after the murder in Policy's room standing by a bureau examining a bundle of papers which witness thought looked like mortgages. _ Wm, U. Hartupee,wa hardware dealer was placecron the stand and asked if he knew Foy. The defense objected to this question, but the objection was overruled, and witness said Foy came into his place and asked for 88-callbre cartridges. Witness did not have any, and Foy left, remarking as he turned to go, "The long cartridges shoot stronger than the short ones, don't they?" Witness answered in the affirmative, and Foy replied, "That's the ktn* I want to get, those that shoot the hardest." When cross-examined, witness said this remark made bv Foy caused him to remember him (Foy) so well. Wilfred White was recalled, and repeated his testimony about the tracks. Mrs. Mary Crouch, % sister-in-law of Jacob Crouch was sworn. She told of her relations with the family of Jacob D. Crouch. Said Judd always lived at Holcomb's. When witness bad business there, Jacob Crouch always got his papers from the room occupied by Polley on the night of the tragedy. Witness was familiar with his papers as Eunice (Mrs. While) and she did all the business. Mr. Crouch kept no safe. Witness had occasionally seen Mr. Crouch take papers from his own room, but not frequently. Had heard Mr. Crouch say the papers were very valuable papers. C. D, Harrington was next sworn. He said: "I live in tae city; have been here most of the time for forty years. Came here this time last November. Knew Jacob D. Crouch since 1 was 10 yearB old. Worked for him about eight years aeo this winter. Know Judd ana Holcomb. First knew Foy four years ago last June in St. Louis, Mo.; he was working on a' Mississippi river steam-boat. I was going down the river when I formed Foy's acquaintance, 1 next saw Foy in this city, both before and after the Crouch murder. First met him Nov. 5. We walked up the street and went into a barn." The defense objected to what Foy had said to witness about the Crouch affairs. Mr. Gibson said thev wanted to prove by witness that Foy asked Harrington to help do a "job" out at the Crouch farm, and that the captain and Judd would pay well for it. Foy also f aid "Harrington was the man he wanted to «te, as he was looking for a man who had nerve." Witness was dismissed until the court could look at the printed testimony. Supervisor McCain was re-called and gave an extensive explanation of the lines and distances about the farms in the neighborhood. Mr. George Hammond was called and said he saw Judd Crouch at Clark's lake in August, 1882. He was asked what Judd said about his father at that time. To this the defense objected, and a long desultory talk was kept up till the time for adjournment. The famous witness, (Harrington's) testl mony was ruled out by Judge Grid ley in the Crouch case when court convened Dec. 10, and with it all cumulative testimony OB-this-branch of the case; disposing of a large array of witnesses who have been called by the people to prove the existence of a conspiracy from the wm - T f m was very largely attended.

The cross-examination was tedious. Alexander C. Brown had at one time worked on the Crouch farm. About the last ot February had seen Holcomb, Judd and Foy together in earnest conversation. . Heard what they were talking about. Witness was not allowed to tell the conversation. After one other witness had given testimony of very little importance Joseph Allen was sworn. He was asked; "Do you know anything of a paper claimed to have been taken. from the Crouch house on the night of the murder)" He was not allowed to answer the question, and a long discussion ensued. The court was undecided as to whether the question was a proper one or not. He had foreseen that sooner or later this question must come up, and it was something requiring deliberation. He would therefore render a decision in the morning. / On the morning of the 11th /Judge Gridley asked for and was handed acopy of the papers In witness Allen's possession which were dug up In the glass jar by/"Detective" Gunn, Henry Holcomb, et aL /•% - H. A. Smith of Eaton Rapids sworn: At the time of the death of Jacoo Crouch witness «ald he owed Crouch several hundred .dollars on a note. After /the murders Dan Holcomb had the note and.wrote and told him so. Witness had not seen It lately. Five hundred was due on this Turnkey Evans testified that he was present when the /Lansing pistol dealer called at the blcomb, but he couldn't remember and the books showed no sale at the timo Dan claimed he bought the weapon; tol might have been soldand overlooked, oseph Allen was recalled, and Attorney of the defense* took occasion tossy prosecution had all the papers that were in the Holeomb house, and none of them could have been In flolcomb's possession before they were in the bottle. Also that Holcomb took them from the Crouch house himself. BarKWorth an<* Fraier got into a hot wrangle, and as they were sputtering at each other the judge said he did not think Witness Allen could give testimony about what was in the bottle, but subsequently allowed the counsel to discuss the question about the papers. Allen left the stand and Sheriff Winney was put on and produced the glass jar containing the papers when they were dug up. The court w u looking at these when the 13 o'clock ad- eurnment came. The papers "which Henry okoab tried to put on to Harrington while be^BJUTington) w u In jail In Mason cannot fiffi be totfidr ' n | There were half a dozen of them.* ^ ^ T Alexander Brown was the first witness Called In the afternoon, and asked to repeat the con venation between Holcomb, Foy and Judd, at the Crouch house. The Judge overruled the objection that was raised and witness continued: Dan Holcomb said to Foy: "You had better burn that letter; If the detectives should Set hold of It, and there is anything In It about le murder, they would send you to state prison sure and we couldn't save you; Jim, if you know anything of this murder or who did it, tell us. I know you are as Innocent as a bird, but if you know who did It, for God's sake tell us." Foy waited a minute and then said; " I don't know anything." On cross examination, witness said he knew Foy well and did not think him Intoxicated at the time. Ray Hewlett, prosecuting attorney, was called and said he had made three unsuccessful searches for the papers found on Allen in Canada and couldn't find them, and he didn't believe they were ever in the office of the prosecuting attorney. Sheriff Winney swore he had given them to the late Prosecuting Attorney Hewlett, but had looked for them and could not flDd them. Witness was asked to tell what the papers were. He said: "One was a patent deed from the government to Mr. Crouch, some bonds, and a deed or two. The paper on whioh they were written WBB yellow with, age." James White recalled—Said the papers taken by Holcomb from the Crouch house were notes and mortgHges; none were opened. There was one dtx>d. An tffjrt was made to proyo that .the pack &ve found on Allen was given him by Henry Holcoojb but the court said: "You know you must connect Holcomb with it In some way before it can come in." Gov. Blair said the fast that these papers were of the same kind as those taken by Holcomb from the Crouch house was' good inference that they were some of them. Mr. Montgomery sold he hated to say'anything more; he had supposed the court virtually decided it twice already, bat the other side were at it again. An effort was made by the people to show that Henry Holcomb was disguised and thtX Dan knew it. Snerlfl Winney swore he called at the Hurd house and found Gunn, Schtmmel, Henry Holcomb, Judd, the captain and Frszer there In Holcomb's room. Durlqg the discussion of the admissibility ot Allen's testimony court adjourned. <> The prosecution recalled Joseph Allen on the morning of the 13th. The judge wanted them to show what they intended to prove further, and was told they Intended to show that after the scheme fell through with Harrington, the Holcomb party tried to put the job off upon Allen. Judge Gridley ruled that the people could show what Allen and Henry Holcomb did together befo-e the separation occurred when Allen left Mason and went to Hamilton. Alien said he and Henry Holcomb visited the jail at Mason to tee Harrington. Henry told Allen he wanted to see l3 Harrington would be "a good man to crack a safe." Witness knew Holcomb at this time as "Frank Jones," that being the name given when they met, April 8tb. Holcomb drew a draught showing two railroads, a stump, and two trees, and told witnt ss that between the trees was a "plant" and this "plant" was where they were to get the money. "Now Allen," said Holcomb "do you see the game?" "Yes, 1 do," said Allen. "I don't tbink you de," said Holcomb, at tbe same time pulllDg a revolver from his pocket and pointing it at witness's head, eayiug, ".show your hand." Witness replied, '•! always play my hand out and hold five trumps." On cross-examination witness said lie came here in October, 1883. Stayed at LiDslng two nights; met a man named Hull and tlepr with htm. The secoud night they walked to Mison together, null gave his name to Alien a DemiDg. Th: two had $135 all told. D amlng nad a made-up roll to fool people with. There was $1 in the roll. Boarded at 214 Jacks.m street, Nov. 21, 1888; Robert Morehouse roomed with wir.nesa on teat night; went to bed about 11 o'clock. Joseph Alien was recalled the lirst thing in tbe afternoon, and testified to first meeting Henry Holcomb at the street car barn in Jackson, and to various places visited by him (Allen). He further said: Henry Holcomb told me of a bcheme and showed me a plan of two stores. Said In one was ai safe; In the safe was $6,000 or $7,000, and wanted witness to help him crack the safe. Witness said he could crack a safe in ten minutes. "After Holcomb told me tbat he knew who the murderers were and where the papers could be found, I showed fear; then Holcomb drew his revolver and presented it at me; he thought 1 was going to squeal; pointed one at my head; the other was purti&lly out of hit* pocnet." Witness never refused to ^o into any robbing schoino-H\at Holcomb proposed.—14©1- PENSIONS BOLDIB w«r• dUatlsd by w o w k «1 i.taaloMofatot.pUa*, XCJ -A-XiX. wh* fo»a. rattUN, IOM ai alat* •* few- SUB?M^ !••• orh»*Hni, falUag saaTaf wiiiisj, yw« i p tMt isii on.

Put the old boots imto the wagon, and g o up to the ahouse decent. Cass is just as pertickler as any old maid about tho floors." "Who*does the work?" asked a boarder's voice. "Not he himself?" "No: old Ben does it. Poor Aunt Carline taught him," said Ke/Jah. "I tell you, we'll see a real nice place. You ought to set your caps for our Cass, some of you city girls.

Ever sinco his mother ^ted^-good old soul! —Cass Newbold had lived alone on the farm. It was a tine farm; well worked, productive; set about with fine stone fence; not a bit of it yellow and dried and neglected. The apple trees bore apples, not worm eaten knobs of uingy hue; pumpkins wore golden and melons green in their time; grapes hung purple on the wall, and there were pink peaches and big egg plums to be had for the gathering; Each year Cass banked a solid sum and bought himself a new suit for best occasions;but hi? life had no warmth in it; he grasped no man's hand, and sat at no woman's tea table. He read a pood deal, and was careful of his books. He paid his workmen promptly, but not liberally. There was his house with no women in it. but he never, dreamt of taking a wife, though ho was strong, healthy and yo'une. for the matter of that, still. Somehow, as he said to himself, he "sort of hated folks; didn't want 'em around; didn't want to talk and be bothered;" and the feeling grew upon him, as such feelings do if encouraged. So that when, one autumn evening, he stood near his biff, red truck wagon, leaning on its side and looking down in the valley, the sight he saw made him feel, as he said, as if he "wished ^wasn't wicked to swear." ^pXfcere they were, the whole of 'em," ijreaid to .himself. AH Keziah Cumminfe's folk's, from Hop-Side; Aunt Mahal*, and Cousin Bill; Cousin Kitty 8pruce, and Miss Jones, from the city —children, boarders, neighbors—all ready to give him a surprise party, as he saw by their kettles and baskets. "I suppose they think its the victuals I worry about," he said angrily. "As if I wouldn't be willing to dine the village, if it wanted mo to, if it would let ^ e t off by myself. What am I to do? POnd it? a party sprung on m e like I've a mind to got my rifle and pick tfjaHMt-as they come up the hill! Aunt Hanala's black hat first—bang! down flhegoes. Then Keziah's yellow bonnet— plug! Then^ Cousin Bill-yFolks ought to be shot that c i n come a visiting like that—like on eartfjqVake or a tornado." < 'However, he did opt really mean this, and as too tribe vanished in tho valley, prior to reappearing on the brow of the hill, it occurred to him that he could cheat tlienv a4l<--4Efce—wagon was high and deep, and f«rH bf empty baskets. He could climb itfto it, lie down behind the baskets, throw a big cover over him, and hide until they were all go"ne. They were welcome to his house, his well, his fuel, his tea kettle, but not to hit company; Feeling this a divine Inspiration, ho proceeded to carry it out., and when how Interested I am," said the boarder's voice again. "What a character!" "Thank heaven A hid myself!" said Cass to himself behind the baskets. "He's very queer," said a young man's voice, "i tell you, he's queer; no politeness in him. 1 shouldn't wonder if he'd send us packing, and sa\: "Get ou t; I don't want no company' "Smart Alick!" said Cass, under the cover. . . . . . " ' "Or shoot us out of the garret window," said the village beau. Cass felt a pang of conscience. "Oh, how charming to beard the lion in his den," said the city boarder in blue. "More like a bear," said Alick. —"Well, he's getting oldish; kinder bald, 'n most forty, I should say. Don't feel as if ladles would admire to have him reund,'' said Aunt Mahala.^ "You have got to excuse him, and not allude his orkerdness to them things. He ain't bad. £ reckon he'll leave all he has to my boys, and I allers says to them: 'Respect your llncle Cass el he is sort o' queorish.' *' •«I wish that, old women was'Urt Jerusalem," mumbled the subject of her remarks to the baskets. "Leave what I have to Alick and Peter! Catch me at that!" "Old bachelors are so queer," said the pink boarder, giggling. "I'm moat afraid to stay," said the blue ooarder throwing his boot into the wagon, "1 kind of wonder at Kitty Spruce bringing ua here," said a heavy voice, broken by tugs at a pair of shoes with side elastics not yet broken in. " 1 — ugh—1 kinder thought he'd bo—ugh— onpleasantisb. Thank goodness they're ou." "That's real mean of you, Uncle figshoes clicked almost against Cass Newbold' s attentive ear. "Why, Cass isn't unpleasant; he's only quiet. Some people go about shouting with nothing to say; now when he speaks its worth hearing: V "Good for Cousin Kitty." said Cass. "Takes tarnation airtu I think," said Alick. "What! Because he don't care for your company?" said Kitty. "Why, he's a great reader, and when he wants to, he can be interesting." "Anybody'd think he was Moses or Absalom, or whoever that wisest old fellow in the catechism was," said Peter. ''1 could talk book, too, if I wanted." "You'd better read up a little more Bible, anyway, and find out what Solomon was named,'' said Uncle Jeff. "Well. I own Cass is smart, bnt I like a fellow that's got a bit of welcome for you— says, 'Come in and take a bite,' or 'Jump in and ride.' or has a word in the store, or goes into the smoking car and takes a cigar with had 09 hospitality, no {friendliness: he was a disappointed old bachelor. Well, he'd show them—that was all! Kitty should not have stood up for him for nothing—Kitty, who thought him handsomer than ever. And so, as the new shod feet struck the porcJi, the door opened, and Cass, witn his toilet made to perfection, his glossy hair ail a curl, and his handsome &ce beaming with smiles, stepped out to greet them. "This is ah unexpected pleasure," he said, warmly. "Aro you really going to take pity on a lonely bachelor?—Walk in! Walk in!" He threw the shutters in the big parlor ooen. He set cnairs. He begged the ladies to take off their bonnets. He was delightful, benign, courteous, as no one had ever seen him. That was an afternoon and evening every que remembered. They supped, with many additions, from the bachelor's larder. They danced from Ben's fiddle. They were led into the garden, and made free of the rosea. And after cutting Alick and Peter completely out with the summer boarders. Cass found himself at liberty to devote the rest of the time to'Cousin Kitty Spruce, who didn't mind it in the least, and who looked as pretty as if she had l>een sixteen again, and as happy as if she had been six. "A Virginia reel for the last dance!", cried the host tirew Ids bow, and he at the head forwarded to Kitty, bowed, retired, came down with his right hand out. They had danced so, years before, in the great hall over the market, where the balls were held. —**Do you. remember, KiUv?" he asked. "Yes." she had time to say, and they turned and parted. The left hand now. "1 was awfullv in love then, Kitty." "Don't believe it." Away again. Both hands now. "I am still." "Oh, let mo go; you spoil the ure." Away once more. Now dos a dos, "This time I mean to have you". Back to-her place in silence; a pressure of the hand in the chain. Now, the wild gallup down the middle and back again. "Lite was dead " ho whispers; "you came and waked me. I believe you loved me then. I believe I was a fool to go and say nothing:—to live like this all these years." "Yes, you were a dreadful fool. What could a woman do?" Thev have taken their places at the foot. The dance goes on. Queer, old romping dance—jolly old dance, with its ill-paired couples all out of time, and Ben's old fiddle all out of tune. Those two who lead it will never forget you— that dance in which an old love bloomed again, and two hearts, long kept asunder by foolish pride, melted at last together, and made ono great happy one. BuJ all the village folks know is, that "Kitty Spruce and Cass Newbold got married unexpectedly, and the match was sort o' fetched on by the surprise party." • — » "- • A R o m a n c e in R e a l L.lfe. Twenty three years ago Ambrose Sterling, a Scotchman, occupied a position in one of the mills at Amsterdam, N. Y. His family consisted of a wife and one daughter 20 years of ago, who was noted lor her beauty. A young man named John Sherwin came to the village, and, gaining the affection of Miss Sterling against the will of her parents, eloped with her to Syracuse. There he soon proved to be a professional gambler, and in a few days he abandoned her. She determined sot to return home, and went to work domestic in a hotel near Utiea. parents after fruitless efforts to discover her whereabouts, finally gave up the search and returned to thei^native land where they died a few years ago. About a year after/her elopement Miss Sterling was employed at a Fort Plain hotel, where she met ah unmarried farmer named Robert Jennings, living in Gajway, Saratoga Co. He engaged her as housekeeper and finally married^cer. A daughter was born to the ^jcmple a year after the marriage, ast summer a tramp came to the ennings' farmhouse and begged shelter .for the night. He turned out to be the John Sherwin of other days. Mrs Jennings persuaded him to perserve silence as to their former relations and he was given work on the farm. He gained the affections of Mrs. Jennings' daughter, a you, if you meet coming from tho city. It's right, that is. Now, ain't it?" Even Cass could not say "No." But Aunt Mahala piped i n again: "He's soured, poor Cass is. He was disappointed in his youth. Maria Jemima Pilkins gave him the mitten, and he haint been himself since. Disappointed old bachelors is generally dumpish." Cass-was scarlet in his concealment. "What an idea!" he gasped; "as if I ever wanted that cross-eyed,red-haired Maria Jemima Pilkins!" But again the sweet, clear voic^bf Kitty Spruce came to his rescu "1 never believed that was so^ltfwas all Maria Jemima's brag. Some girls are liko that. He never askedrlier—never. t , ,__. n_ n ? „ She was always saying^she'd refuseefcj beautiful"girl 20 years of age~and the somebody; and whom did she marry! Just the meanest thing in the villagerpoor and homely and hateful. Why. she'd have jumped at Cousin Cass, He was very handsome then, and worth ten of the other boys; so he isnow.'' "Only he's got over his beauty, I suppose," said the blue boarder. / " N o , he hasn't; he's better looking than ever," said Kitty. "Oh myi" sneered the pink boarder, "he must be a paragon.u • .- - ; "I thought that was an.unabr^lla." said Alick. "What d ' y o u mean?" •*He is a paragon," said Kitty, decidedly. "I want "you to see we had one man left over here. That's why I got up the party. Borrow- the Webster's dictionary, Alick, as soon as you g e t in."1 - With these last words the party, flinging more shoes into the truck 'wagon, picked up thoir baskets and .toiled on toward tne house, and Cass crawling from under the cover cloth, arone flushed and excited on the other side, and sped by ways ho knew well homeward. His pride was up. He was crustv, and cross, and bashful, was he? He THE STA^E SCHOOL. S o m e Interesting S t a t i s t i c s O o n - oerninfir t h e W o r k of t h e .Institution a t C o l d w a t e r . The State Public School for Dependent Children at Coldwater, has now been in active operation for ten years. The institution was established by special act of the Legislature, for children whose homelife, by circumstances over which they have no control, has been destroyed. The school receives children between the ages of 3 and 12, and may keep them at least until thoy are 16. They are taken out of poor nouses and families unable to properly care for them. Since the opening of the institution 1,672 children have been received, of which 1,120 are males and 552 females. Of this number 7C2 came from poorhouses 162: were orphans, 647 half-orphans, and 843 have both parents living. Many of the children received were simply infants, 700 beingiess than 8 years of age, and 173 under 5 years of age. The disposition of the wards has been varied. Ninety-five have been adopted by order of the Probate Court, 209 have been returned tov counties for Various reasons, being unfit subjects- for the school—diseased, crippled, criminal, etc. There are 278 now in the school, and 895 are in homes subject to visitation. It is in the livesof--these 895 that the watchful care of the school is apparent, and that the chief interest in the workings of the school centers. The policy of the state, as outlined in the law establishing the shool, has been to actively strive to secure homes for the children,- and presses upon the mind a respect for labor. More and more as we see its workings,.and as we extend our acquaintance with its students, do we prize its usefulness. A grange is fortunate, indeed, when it can enlist these in its work. One of the pet schemes of our order has been the elevation of the Department of Agriculture to a Cabinet position;. Is this great interest to bo long denied a privilege granted in every other civilised nation P The recent session of the National Grange and of the Agricultural Congresa appointed committees to press this measure upon the Congress. A large amount of effort seems neceasary, because so few in congresa aro personally identified with congresa or familiar with its needs." The Secretary reported that the popular funds for drive-well defense had been less than half expended, and that if no further necessity for it appeared, as now seemed probable, the balance would soon be returned to subscribers* The special committee appointed at the last annual meeting to consider the question of a state experiment station had associated with i t representativee of the State Horticultural and State Agricultural Societies, and unanimously recommended that such a station be established in connection with the Agricultural College. A brief history v* as given of the success of such stations in other states and in Europe an countries. use the school only as an abiding place During the past summer the superintendent of the school has visited almost the entire number now indentured, and is embodying the results of his observations to the board of control. Of the 895 children iu homes 684 are out on indenture, of which the superintendent found 579 were doing well, giving perfect satisfaction, and constituting parts of so many families in the family sense; eighty on indentnre are doing fairly well, with.-a prospect of adjusting have fitted up nice—rending, writing themselves to their home relations; twenty-five on indenture are doing poorly, who will soon probably be changed, or drift away from their present homes. There are in homes not indentured 193, who have either left the parties to whom they were indentured and'are self supporting or with parents or other relations whose ciristances have changed for the better. Many of those who have left guardians Lave done so by consent, and some have actually paid for their time till of age. In case of children adopted, returned to their counties, becoming of age, or of the marriage of girls, the guardianship of the school ceases, which has been the case with 386 children. Of the total number received at the school but fifty-seven have died either at the school or in homes. There is a reserve power in the contract of indenture^by which the boarchot trol may at once remove the child from a homo, this provision being made that the school may have a constant and efficient supervision and watchfulness over them and their houses and-at once correct any apparent evils. Two hun^ dred and ninety were received in 1884 and eighty-nine" per cept of them have been placed in homes, being ninetythree per cent more than were received last year, and^seventy-two per cent more than evef before in any one year. two eloped a few weeks ago. The heart-broken mother confessed her early waywardness to her husband and he forgave her. Sherwin and his wife are now living on a farm in Dele ware county.

Grange- The meeting of the State Grange held ^irj Lansinjr a few days ago was a very successful one. The election resulted in the choice of Hon. Cyrus G. Luce for Master, John Holcomb Overseer, and Perry Mayer Lecturer. General Master Cyrus G. Luce, in his annual address to"that body, said: In the early history of these sessions many believed they were representing an experiment, but that period in our existence we confidently hope and believe is past, and we now come together representing an esta blished fact. We have become one of the permanent institutions of the country, and have thus, to some extent, become the guardians of the vast interest of agriculture. While we have not realized all of our hopes and desires, yet, notwithstanding financial depression and the excitement of a Presidential election, our membership has suffered n o decrease. More firmly have our members become impressed with the absolute necessity of the organization, and we believe that at no time in the histoiy of our country have so many tillers of the soil recognized the fact that the great engine of progress in oar country is organization and"co-operation. ,With all evidences of this terrific force about him the American farmer will hot in the future, as in the past, neglect its use. The subject of education will doubtless receive much attention at your hands. We, as a people, rfully realize the importance of educating our children in the schools. But do we as rational men and women as fully realize the importance of continually acquiring and using an education after leaving the school-house? We would emphasize the importance of a more intimate acquaintance with the rules of business. Tennessee teaches agriculture in its common schools. Our educators, we trust, will give this subject attention. The interests of our people require an educated yeomanry. I nave no faith i» the sentiment that the solution of the agricultural question lies in the direction of large landed estates. The Agricultural College educates and m- R * a i « .

Under the leadership of Mr. Mabee. the red ribbon agitator, the city is experiencing a temperance reform revival, and the liquor sellers are despondent. Passaic has 9,000 inhabitants and 35 saloons. The common council has become so far converted that it has voted not to issue another license. Large temperance meetings are held daily,- and drinking men are putting on the red ribbon by scores.

The fifteenth annual meeting of the Michigan State -Horticultural Society was opened on the evening of Dec. 1st, in Ann Arbor, by the president, after which Prof. H. S. Frieze of the university delivered an address of welcome. He opened with a very pleasant reference to the rapid improvement in horticulture, especially in the great f ruit-gro wing stato of Michigan. Washtenaw county was the peer of any of the eastern counties in the great art of fruit raising, and he was haprfy to welcome its representatives to the central city of the county. The homes and hospitality of the city were open in hearty welcome to the visiting delegates. A response was made to Prof. Frieze's address by President Lyon. One open problem of the society was the manner in which the young people could be attracted to the society and the art of horticulture, and to define some means of deciding in their minds that the odor of a rose is as fragrant as *hs,t of tobacco. If the society accomplish this the result will be more satisfactory than any yet attempted. The president then read some recommendations for the future of the society and the advisability of representing it at the Exposition at New Orleans. Active preparations were being made for the biennial meeting of the Americal Pomological Society atGrand Rapids in Februaiy The local societies throughout the state were recommended to make a full exhibit of Michigan fruit The president announced the following committees: Committee on Arrangements for the Meetings at Grand Rapids--Byron G. Stout, Pontiac, Henry G, Reynolds, Qii Mission; A. J. Webber, Ionia/W. K. Gibson, Jackson; W. L.Webber, East Saginaw; J. Gt Ramstfoll, Traverse City. Flowers, Plants andJOrnanientation; William Saunders, Ontario; W. N. Tracy, Detroit; Mrs. J, J. Atterly, South Haven. Fruits—W. C. Barry, New York; £.< Buall; Kalamazoo; D. W. Beadle, Ontario- Prof. J. Beal Steere, of the University, then read a novel and interesting 8aper on "Savage Horticulture; or, the rigin of Horticulture," a synoposis of which is as follows: Mm bears a close alliance to the fruit-eating mammals by reason of his format-inn, shown in_lhn_Shape__Of his teeth and other particulars. If man were obliged to exist without lire he, like the wauderiDg apes of Borneo and Africa, would be obliged to subsist on fruit alone, changing his residence to the climate which in season produced his only means of sustenance. In such a case man would not bo a social animal. Fire becomes an important factor as a means of advancement by making edible meats and starches, reduced bf cooking to the consistency of fruits. By/ihe possession of a supply of starch food man is lifted from a state of daily dependence upon his exertions and ha/time td turn his attentions''to. something else than food gathering. / Fruits are made attractive in taste and color that they niay be eaten. Their taste and color"being of the same -as -t" wings of the locust seed, for the purpose of scattering the seed. The Indians found that the wild turkey laid its eggs upon the7 ground so that they could care for the nest, and the eggs were so numerous that tho raising of them would be profitable. The same instinct is universal as tho means of domesticating wild animals, among both wild and civilized men. The civilizaby which means an improved product has been originated. Civilised man, like the savages, uses his fruits and starches for the manufacture of intoxicants. Men may thus be divided into three classes: First, tke lowest tribes, living on the products of fishing and hunting and wild fruits; second, the tribes that indulge in primitive agriculture; third, civilized men who depend on culture of fruits. Tho future of horticulture will bo as brilliant as the past. Its progress will have a great influence on the morals of future generations The use of"fruits for the manufacture of intoxicants cannot be too strongly opposed by the horticulturalista.. At tho close, the paper was thrown open to discussion, which was entered into by Messrs. Saunders and Beadle. L.D. Watkins of Manchester, opened a discussion on the English sparrow question, followed by Prof. E. Baur and Prof. J. B. Steere. Prof. Steere recommended that th^e sparrow be killed wholesale and used for food, or be allowed to stand the disastrous assaults of the small boy. After the opening prayer and the transaction of routine business a discussion followed on the advisability of the individual growing of apple orchards from seeds,liow to plant and graft the trees and what varieties are tho most hardy. Entered into by F. Buell of Kalamazoo, J. Austin Scott and Mr. Parehall of Ann Arbor. President Lyon and W C. Barry of Rochester, New York., The peach curculio and a means of ijts prevention aud cure was the subject for the next discussion. Opened by C. A. Sessions, of Oceana, who neither knew the cause of the blight, any sueoessful remedy for it, nor did he know of anyone who did. Prof. E. Baur of Ann Arbor, said that one means of prevention was a rich, heavy soil for the growth of the tree. J. D. Baldwin of Ann Arbor thought the disease was as far from explanation as the pear—btight^^The weather he thought was an importantcause. .WJ C. .Barry said verpTcold east stbrmswouid <Juri the leaves fcf some varieties, Tbe varieties chosen to be grown successfully in the future must be the-ones most baidy and the ones least liable to curl, Early Crawford being a distinguished example. Secretary Garfield thought a fungus which deveU oped more or less rapidly according to the weather was the cause. Prof. J. B. Steere, from a special oommittee appointed to enquire into a specimen of chess growing on a head of wheat, presented to the society by William Saunders of Ontario, reportea as follows: It was a freak of naturo caused by a tkof chessgrowingnext-to a wheat head and becoming grafted together. He reported also on the mixture of apple varieties by reason of the fertilization of the blossom by foreign pollen. Tha/is tbe only explanation offered by the'botanists of "russet spots." Prof. Saunders made some supplimontary explanations; he thought bud variations was /a better explanation than pollen izatiou, inasmuch as not only blossoms but tho branches on which they grew show differences. Dr. Marshall of Lansing, gave his experience- on the-raixture of-applo varieties. tion of starch plants has progressed unthe scores of processes which, in til nearly all the botanical families are these days of tbe division of machine- \ used as a means of contributing to labor, do each its part towards making Tho subject next discussed was judg ing fruits at fairs, opened by Prof. Satterlee of Lansing. He-recommended ~gkment by process of selection on a fixed scaTiTor-points. W. C. Barry folfae I lowed with some very .vise suggestions in regard to methods of exhibiting in this state compared to New York. Secretary Garfield, J. D.Baldw,inJ. A. Scott and E. Duel followed with short suggestions. Prof. Tracy of Detroit, concluded the morning session with a very interesting talk on making horticultural displays. He used diagrams to iljustrate the methods he suggested which, would dispense with several objectionablo features^of the average American displays of plants, the manner of lighting the complete shoe. A pair of shoes, it seems, contains forty-four separate pieces, and goes through tbe hands of _ perhaps a hundred people, although it costs the wearer but two or three dollars. One hundred and thirty thousand people are employed in this industry, and their average earnings are somo- — What; over $380. These industrial articles are planned to give, in roadable fashion, a clear idea of how the important articles %f, industry are made, who maice them, how much they earn, and how they live; in short, to inform Americans how they are dothed, fed, and otherwise served in these days of machinery,. and how their fellow- Americans earn-v their respective livings.

Many species have been so changed by cultivation that their original character is almost completely lost, so that a series of experiments in retrograde development would be of great interest. Among the vegetables, seeds, stemsmnd roots are ttie most generally used for food, and of these, seeds aro tho most important as affording a natural storago place for nutriment. It is a peculiar fact that no nation has become civilized without producing som6 of the great cereals for food consumption. Roots are the next in importance as food, and stems last. Fermented drinks was the use that nearly all the primitive agriculturists made of their starch productions, rarely.if ever,using the products of their labor for tho purpose of clothing themselves. Among the savage tribes there was a striking similarity in their systems of agriculture everywhere, particularly in tho small scale in which they carried it on. But open fields and plains have gradually developed by the efforts of the beginners. * The next stop in advance Was in the/, improvements of implements, irrigation and the use of fertilizers.

The nerits and demerits of dry eel I iars as a storage place for fruits w discussed. Entered into by severafof the delegates. Some varieties 01 apples were benefited by damp cellars and some were injured. " ./ Tho most marketable strawberry and raspberry was discussed in a general way by several of the delegates.

They were divided into two classes, he said, those that prey directly on tho destructive insects una those that deposit their eggs on the bodies of their victims. He described fully the habits of some of both classes. Prof. A. J.

The question of what are tho three best apples to raise for market was responded to by Mr. Blowers, who recommended the Baldwin, Nonesuch, and the Maiden Blush. The question of bagging grapes as a prevention pf grape-rot was answered by Mr. Pierce. Ho w will sweet potatoes and egg plant thrive on muckP Responded to by several of the delegates whose experience was that the egg plant alone of the two could do so. The glee club rendered an excellent selection, after which Prof. V. M. Spautding read perhaps the most interesting paperof the meeting, on "RUSTS, SMUTS AND MOLDS." He illustrated his remarks by magnified drawings, shown by means of the calcium light. The following is a synopsis of his paper: A very large proportion of the diseases of fruits and grains aie occasioned by parasitic fungi. Hence the intelligent horticulturist who interests himsblf in a study of the conditions of successful cultivation must pay some attention to such parasitic growths. There are a very large number of species of fungi, perhaps 2,500 in the United States. Many ot these are pernicious in their influence; others are harmless. They attack all parts of tho plant, but especially thb leaf. It is necessary to know something of the structure of the leuf of tho plant in order to understand the action of the parasite The leaf is to the plant what the lungs and stomach are Lo the animal— i. e., it is the organ both of respiration and assimilation^ The plantjiannot breathe properly without the leaf nor can it assimilate food. When, therefore, a fungus fastens on a leaf it interferes seriously with the nutrition of the plant, and, in fact, with all its functions. The plant may live through-it, but in any case it becomes diseased and its process of flowering and fruiting are interfered with or prevented altogether. The first group of parasite fungi to be considered are generally called molds or nlUdews. As . a representation of this group one of the best known is the grape-vine mildew. This fungus was noticed in the United States for the first time about fifty years ago, and has boen described by various European botanists from specimens sent to them from this country. Iti complete life History wa " _ ago, when it was completely^ and accurately desenbed by the Professor of Botany in Harvard College. The fungus appbars as a fine white frosty growth on the under surface of the leaf near the vine, about the middle of August, and from that timo on until frost comes As it spreads, the leaf turns a reddish brown, then at last withers, and finally falls In our climate this does not materially effect tke ripening of tho grapes, the leaf being large and strong enough to resist the attack of the fungus to a considerable extent. Jn Europe, however, the case is different. The climate is moist and the leaf less vigorous; and in consequence tbe luxuriant growth of the fungus soriousjy interferes with the growth and A* el--he* >s wh maturity of the grape. In 1876, before the grape mildew had been introduced into Europe, Dr. For- Tow predicted that should it be introduced it might occasion great damage to the vineyards of the Mediterranean region. It appeared in Southern France in 1870, passed over into Spain, and in 1881 into Algeria, where it occasioned in some places the loss of half the crop. It is difficult to say what can be done to check it. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. r OTA TO ROT Is occasioned by a fungus closely related to that on grape vines. This attacked the potato crop in Ireland in 1845, 184& and 1847, and was the immediate cause of the Irish famine. This fungus is also of American origin, but has now gone the world ovor wherever potatoes are cultivated. / . RUSTS e another group of fungus. The one est knovn by everyone is the rust on wheat. The most interesting is its socalled changs of hosts, liying part ot tho time on wheat and part of the time on the leaf of the common barberry. This peculiar habit was first noticed,by farmers, who asserted that the presence of barberrv bushes in the vicinity of a wheat field occasioned the wheat's rusting. Wheat "rust" is only one among a multitude that go under the common name of "rust" SMUTS. The familiar corn smut may be taken as a representative. There are more of these smuts than most people are aware of. About loo species have been described and tu >e aro probably many more. They vie found chiefly in the seed oi i:m p.ior :uid li'l it with a dusty dirt. It used to W> supposed that the grain degenerated^ but it is not "known that the dlseasais-the presence and the destructive influence-ox the fungus. A compjfite-und satisfactory knowledge of the parasitic diseases of plants cj«r"bc obtained only by the fullest cooperation of scientific men. It must devolve on the fruit grower and farmer to carry out the experiments which decide tb6 course of treatment to be pursued in the individual case. Everything must ultimately be subjected to the test of experience. Mu<do was had at the close of Prof. Spauiding's paper, after which Dr. Mc- Naughton of Jackson led a discussion: "In what manner may horticulture benefit city residents P" He treated the subject in a thoughtful and entertaining manner. - "Studies in the Woods1' was the con-feluding topic for the evening, discussed by communication from O. C. SimmoncU of Chicago, Secretary Garfield and Secretary Beadle of Ontario. At the opening of the convention on the morning of the 3d Secretary Garfield reported the disbursements for the year 1884 as $1,774.89. H. H. Hayes, A. C. Glidden, C A. Sessions, H. W. Davis, S. D.

The report of the committee was^ then adopted and tbe gentlemen nom*W ina^ed were declared elected by the meeting. A discussion on the Ann Arbor seedling grape occupied the rest of the forenoon session. In the afternoon, in response to the question of what varieties and the number of each to plant in an orchard of 1.000 peach trees, S. B. Lowisof Monroe gives his list as 200 Eany Crawfords, 200 Wager, 200 Late Crawfords, 200 Smuck, 200 Hill's Chili. _ J. J. Atterly reported his list as follows: 5 Amsdens. 10 Early Rivers, 75 Hale's Eatly, 50 Mt.

Stearns gnve his experience with the raising of tne different varieties of peaches. The next question from the box was . on the best variety of strawberries to plant for the local market. Mr. Berry recommended Shapeless and Mr. Sumner the same. The best sweet apples for gjptthsk and for market was asked for, Momfrj. Scott and Powers recommended the Sweet Bough, Messrs. Stephens and Green the Green Sweet for a late variety and the Sweet Bough for an early one. Messrs. Saunders and Beadle of tV>e o w u m J l e l ^ y e ^ meeting their views of flowering shrubs for garden and lawn. Secretary Saunders mentioned a list of ehrubs, among which he noticed the golden bell, aspirca and French lilac as being of particular value for lawn decorations. President Beadle recommended the flowering quince as an early blossomer, desirable as a hedge planfrand bearing a fruit of no particular consequence except for its flavor with other fruits. Gracelus, a very beautiful plant; cremata, both pink and white snowball" and various other varieties he recommended. Philo Parsons of Detroit, gave - the meeting a very interesting talk on pear raising. He urged the pear producers to use more care in preparing the fruit for market; not .to allow the trees to overbear. He said that never in his experience iiad any trees of his own intermitted bearing. Clarence M. Weed gave the meeting a discussion of the workings of the coddling moth in apples. A. C. Glidden read a paper on "Rural Periodicals and Our Duty Toward Them." After a general discussion on various subjects the meeting listened to the report of the committeo to inspect theV fruit exhibit. - The meetings of the society were concluded on the evening of the 3d. After music, the adoption of resolutions, etc.. Secretary Garfield announced a list ^jof ^subjects for discussion, and a number of very interesting five minute speeches were made by President AejBall of the University, Prof. Harrilifra, Prof, ty-of Detroit, O. ,R. LTXfOftter of Ann Arbor, W. C. Barry of Hew-York, et al. After a few short remarks and some little unimportant business the meeting adjourned to meet at Lansing in January for the regular business quarterly meeting. The horticulturists are greatly encouraged by the meeting justheld,never having held a more successful or better attended one.

Jf i \ i t Gr»j, Toyoton & Fox occupy the fourrtorr brjuk block on Woodbrldate street, Ltettpit, numbering from HO to 26, M • candy aanu|ajetory and wholesale firework* depot. The four floors and basement at No. 26 Woodbridge street were used as the candy factory and store-room for tbe manufactured goods of the firm. On these floor* between fifty and sixty girls, men and boys were employed, tbe ffu*h* ibtlttg considerably In the majority, flhriiir' affr • o'clock on the evening 01 Dec. 12, tkatsBMtats of the building noticed the smell oLplok* which seeaaed to come from the etafsMbrabaft and spread Into every room. This warning ,wa* followed by a frautic cry of "Fire! fire! run for your Uvea!" which came from the foot of tbe stairs on the dm floor and was distinctly heard in every part of An alarm was rung in, but by the time the rlrst engine had reached the scene the flames had burst from the second story windows and it waaat once seen that the firemen had a Btubip*»iaht ahead. Ay 5:30o'clock every floor iraavta-lanes, and it was not until nearly an kouttUcr that the tire was under control. V. 0."&da«i?, one of tbe employes la tbe buUiteg, claims to have discovered the Are Jlrttandjpve the alarm. Wben the cry of fire was beard by the occupants of the fourth Blxteen in number, Michael J. Leddy, an of the department, dropped his work without stopping to get his coat or hat commenced pushing frightened girls out of the rooms, and down the stairway. After seelag them safelv down the first? flight of stairs he ran to the third floor and assisted ,in getting the occupants of that floor out of the bulidlDg. Mtas Bell Lynch was forewoman of the second floor. She had seven girls working under her. When they heard the alarm they at once became frantic with fright. Miss Lynch tried to quiet them, but the screams of the girls and men In the hallway and on the stairs trying to reach the street added to their fright, ana they went screaming and crying from one end of tbe room to tbe other perfectly frantic and completely bewildered. la the midst of thetumnlta number of men employed in other parts of the building rushed Into the room and dragged out several girls by main force, among the number Miss Lynch, the —forewoman, who was trying to quiet those about her. She hardly left the room before the flames burst .out in all their fury, and those who were trying to rescue the girls were obliged to leave the room without knowing whether all were saved or hot. In frontof the building the confusion and excitement were even worse than on the inside. Tbe alarm of fire had brought out hundreds of men and women who were employed within a block of the burning building, and many of them had relatives or friends In the structure. JBefore the arrival of the fire department the street wa» literally thronged with people who added to the terror of the scene by their frantic efforts to And a beloved relative or dear friend. In the midst of all this the faces of three girls appeared at tbe windows of the second story. BeLind them could be seen the glare of the flames as they licked up the dry material lathe room and shot forward towards the heJpleis creatures whose faces were pressed agalnet "iwa lu hopeless despair.-.

She and her companions muBt have hea'd the fjrsulic cries of those in the street beneath jjaMftfthiaaa hundred voices shouted ''Jump I -'^TKapt for God's sake, luuipl" but the cries Wire oot heeded. The faces were at the wInflow but a few brief seconds when the flames fathered about them and they disappeared m m view. The scene was one that will never be forfttten by those who saw it. Btrpng men tarned away with a shudder and Wited a tear" Irom iheir eyes and women walled out their anguish. A number of flreaaen pushed a ladder up the front of the buiidand one of them rushed to the top of It, It was impossible on the evening of the fire to get anything more than an estimate of the lots from the fire. The building was owned by the Bsgley estate. The Interior of it will have to be torn but and rebuilt, but the walls still stand. The loss will probably be $2,500. There was fully w much loss from water to the stock in the building on the west of the burned structure as by tbe Are. It 1» thought that $5,000 will cover Gray, Toynton & Fox's Joss on stock, but tbe damage may prove to be heavier. The goods burned were insured for $3,009, $1,000 in the American fire Insurance company and $1,000 in each the Hanover insurance company and Mercantile ineuraicj company of Cleveland. The g^ods damaged by water were Insured in ten different companies The total loss Is ibout $8,000. The old story told so often, must be repeated here. There was an insufficient number of fire escapes. It.sometlmes happens ihat buildings are unprotected by reason of the limited means of owners or leases, and this 'act when known, takes away largely from the sting of public reproach; but in this cue neither tbe management of the Bagley estate which ringed the DUdding for manufacturing purposes, nor ihe corporAlton of Gray, Toynton & Fox, that cirrled on the factory, can escape censure on the plea of lmpecuntosltv, siuce neither is" illy prbvided'wlthtbls world's goods. tt he was too late, as when the winsedroaw was broken in the fl lines drove him back and the Hftless forma of three young women surroundtd by a sea of flames was the spectacle that asst tneir gaze, ihe first body was lowered ffosn tbe second story »f the bulldisg at 6:35 •/dock and was immediately taken on a •batcher to Woodbridge street station. The law was burned b yond recognition and the '&* ••'A I . V . ' ' ir garments were burned from the body, after two other bodies were taken lrom lha burned building and laid beside the first In tbe Woodbridge street station. Some of the gtrliwho escaped were sent for to Identify the remains which had been taken from the burning building. A moat sickening sight met their gaze. Stretched upon the floor on blankets near the west side of the assemblyroom, with their heads to the west and their blistered and scorched facia uptumtd, lay the remains of three of their young companions. Their faces were burned and bloated beyond recognition. After the first shock at the sight had passed off the girls commenced a search for the jewelry or swaps of the dresses that might lead to the ldentincaflbir of those who wore them. One form, tha second one brought in, was finally identified by a pin in her dress as that of Miss Annie Lynch, a sister of the forewoman in tbe room in which the girls nerished. Annie was 27 years old and boarded with Win. H. Messmore at 143 Cherry street. She had been in the employ of Gray, Toynton <fe Fox nearly fnoilaw years an»t was one of their most trusted ^MtoyeB.

Her attention was called to a peculiar shaped pin worn at the throat of the unidentified body. On seeing that she burst into tears and for some time her grief was uneontrolable.

She was the worst disfigured of the three bodies, and her left band was tightly clasped as if she had something in it at the time of ieath that she wanted to retain. Her right forefinger was extended and the. muscles of ber arms contracted so that as she lay upon ber back in the station the finger was pointing" heavenward. Coroner Locke, who bad been sent for, inv eneled a jury, and after viewing the body the quest was adjourned to 9 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, Dee. 18.

Capt Dudley and mate of the wrecked yacht Mignonette, who weretrled in London and found guilty of murder in killing the boy Parker for food to keep themselves alive some months ago, haye been sentenced to death. It U believed they will certainly be pardoned. The court room was crowded and the scene during the pronouncing of the sentence was most Impressive. L^rd Chief Justice Cole ridge read the judgment ot_the court, citing authorities at length. The court dealared that the taking of human life could . only be justified on a plea of self-defense. The commission of murder for the sake of preserving one's own life was unjustifiable, Of course it was a duty to preserve one's own life, but duty often required oue not to save but to sacrifice bis own life. The court must apply the law and declare that the prisoners were guilty of wilful murder fur which there was no justification. If this judgment was too severe the- court must leave the prisoners to the clemency of the. crown. The prisoners were asked what t had to say before sentence was pronounced. Both Capt. Dudley and Mate SteDhensnfeaded for mercj in view of their tern»!e/tttuatlon when the deed was done. Lord Coleridge said it was a jury's privilege to recommend prisoners to mercy, aad then he sentenced them to be hanged, hut without the black cap. The secretary of state, for tht home department, advises the queen to respite Capt.

Witness saw several bullet holes in a stump and helped to dig out one ot the bullets, and found it to be a 32 caliber. This smmp was near the) house. Witness did not think this was of much importance for orjgjynst ther detendant. The bullet holes in tne stump looked as though they had not been made a great while. Alonzo McCain and Detective Harris were recalled, but nothing important elicited. C. D. Harrington was recalled and crossexamined by Mr. Frazer. The interrogations elicited the admission that witness had not said anything about seeing Foy and Policeman MoQuillen and walking up street with them until after they were both dead. Henry A. Smith was re-called and said he heard someone say, before he left Wm. Hoioomb's and about the time Daniel was there, that William's wife and daughters had been shooting a phdel, but he did not hear whose pistol it was. The court overruled the application of the delense to have the prosecution call all the witnesses on the information. They should produce them in eeurt and the defense could take exception to /the ruling. Julia Reese was re-called for further crossexamination and was interrogated about the actions and whereabouts of the family on the night of the mnrder, but the only new thing elicit*d was that the parlor lamp was ligated for Polity's benefit, and anyone standing at the window where the tracks were round could leek through the parlor. When court opened on the 17th inst., George Hut.bins was readied and was crossexamined by Mr. Wilson. He did not know Whether or not Henry White or Polley had any money at the lime ot the murder, neither did he see anyone with Polley at Horton.

She Hid not remember whether she told Aionzo McCain or Thomas Courtney that she lound a bloody handkerchief at Hpleomb's and di not remember as a fact whether or not she did find one. Nettie Snyder was recalled. She worked at Holoomb a before and after the murder, and had charge of the boy's room. Witness said the room contained tbree beds, a clothes cupboard and a chest in whioh Lounsberry kept his clothes. She was in the room every against da^r ^week: moving- -theelse; always _ ana swept rv twice* a things about, but saw nothing swept behind the chest. The protecmion objected to the question* asked the witness: If there were any bloody clothes in the roomT but the objection was ruled out. Witness swept behind the chest three times after tbe murder, but saw nothring there, and thought if flthere had been anything there she would have seen it. Several other questions directed towards the bloody clothes, also Judd's muddy boot*, were asked and ruled out, tbe detente excepting. The day after the murder, witness said, Judd changed his pants, putting on the only light pair he had, the same ones he wore" to town the day before the murder. His everyday pants were brown. Witness saw Ella Shannon in the witness room the day witness was sworn -and remembered Detective Baker coming in and Ella and witness had a talk about him. Mrs. Mary Crouch was recalled, and in reply to Mr. Frazer said she had frequently seen Daniel Holoomb and his wife at Jaooo D Crouch's, and bad known Mr. Holeomb to do business for Mr. Crouoh, but had notx Tf«-ra irtni there for a year prior to Mr: Crouch a death. The testimony at the inquest and examination, that was referred 10, was admitted in endenoe. / Frank Mason, the witness who swore he saw Holoomb on the train, wasrecalled and erou-examined for nearly/three hours with regard to his doings jrnd whereabouts on that trip. Mr. Montgomery/then announced that he was throusn wkh the cross-examination, and the. deflate then made the following motions, which were heard and taken under consideration, to b« disposed of in the morning: That the prosecution 'elect which count Urpfooeed under; that all the testimony ot e witnesses Xsson and Henry brown be stricken out, as the showing at the time tbeir names were put on tbe information was not true; tbat all the testimony about the shooting and the finding of the shells in Holoomb's woods be stricken out as ho was not shown to be conneoted with it in any way; also all testimony regarding the sayings or acts ot Jadd aud Foy, as no evidence tending to show any conspiracy had been given; alto, all about the tracks claimed to nave been made by Judd, on the same ground; also, all the testimony of Allen about_hii doings_,with, Henry Holcomb^asno agency from Dau to Henry had been shown, and for the further reason that they should have called Henry fir*t, also, that the iary be asked to disregard 21 or the 30 statements of Mr. Gibson in his opening, as they had not been proved snd not a word of evidence bad be*n sffered on most of them. When the Crouch Holoomb trial opened on the morning of the lHirj, the court overruled the moiioa of the defense to compel the people to elect whioh count of the information they relied on. Mr. Montgomery opened his argument in rapport of the motions made.the other afternoon by reading /rom a large number of authorities. He then took up the requests, or motions made the otner day, referring to each separately. He aaid there WM nothing to the case but rumor and atuff and Mr. Glbson s ipse dixit opening. Mr. Gibson said the motions, or requests, wer-j ia#erortune tni out of place, but when the time oame the prosecution would be found able and ready to say what they tnooght had or had not been proved. In reply Mr Wilson said it was out of place to allow tweniyfive taiehoods to stand on the record of tne case, and, if the requests were granted, it would place the prosecution where it ought to have started. He said in all the tvldeoos thus far, which has taken a month to get in, not a word has been g n e i to show that Holoomb was out of the house that night. The afternoon was used up in arguments by Gov. Blair, Mr. Gib»on and R. E. FrazeY. A decision will probably be reached in th morning. in the Crouoh case on the 19th Judge Gridley denied the motion 01 defense ts> dismiss the case tor want of proor. Tsst judge also retused to strike out the tests***, ny relating to a conspiracy or the traMM across the wheat field. The court ooMpHtl with tte request of deense to caution the) jury on points claimed hy the prosecution in the opening upon which no proof was offered. At 11:30 Wiisou opened ths defense by stating" that it wH3~Trorn-rcassary^to-prove— the innocence of the defendant, but to show that the prosecution had uot offered any proof of his guilt. For a year, at a cost Of $40 COO to the countv the people had la bared, and brought forth this little mouse, bad not shown oue point ol proof Dsn Holoomb. Tbe deieuce will endeavor to show that Mr. Holeomb did not teU the de tec lives that ne bought a 38 calibre revolver in Lansing; he will swear tbat he does uot remember any suoh_convernauofl. We wi;l show the pistol D*n had up there was a 32 calibre and not a 33, aud the halls lound up at Williams were fiiel from this 32 calibre pistol. Tne boots bought tor Holeomb by Judd were Goodyear's not Boston boots. We will show that when Harrington claims to have met Foy en the boat in 1880 the latter was working on a farm in this state. We Shall show that there were no such papers at the Crouoh house as Alien claims were given to him by Henry Holeomb;—Tula is all that I have to say and I promise you that a few days will conclude our part of the case. The defense then called Charles F. Andrews as the first witness. > He is 13 years old; was at HoIcomVs the night of the murder. Foy had been husking corn during the day.

When Dan came back from town he beld his horse hitehup and drove over to the Crouch bouse alone. Bolles said that when he oame over to Kolcomb'a that Polley was kil ed too. He said tttev all had their throats out. The witness said when Mr. Holcofb got up tha* morning he asktd for a bundle that lay on the coucn. Witness carried it te him and Dan took out a pur of new rubber boots and put them on. On cross-examination he said Jud came V S from town that night, Did uot see him nave any bundle. Did not hear Holoomb get up in the night Witness remembered he testified berore that be could not tell wnat d%y it was that Dan put on the boots; did not know what made him remember now; had been talking with Detective Baker about the boots and Baker Lad read the testimony to witness, and witness said no, one oould get.up without waking him in the night, but Foy frequently got up mornings and left witness asleep in bed.

Eugene Field. Santa Claus in toe Mines. reduced to absolute suffering Jack Dawson, a strong, honest miner, was passing the cabin this Christmas eve, •when the voice of the little girl within attracted Lis attention. Jack possessed an inordinate love for children, and although bis manly spirit would abhor the sneaking practice of eavesdropping, be could not resist the temptation to steal up to' the window jast a. moment to listen to the sweet prattling voice. The first words he caught were: "Before papa died we always had Christmas, didn't we, mamma?" o' metal yer made of. I've an idee that Saunta Claus knows jist whar thot cabin's sitiwated, an' I've an idee he'll iind H afore mornin'.

Hyar goes a $2u fiiece right down in the toe, and hyar I ay the stockin1 on this card table— now chin in much or little, its ye kin afford."* "Hold them- checks o' mine on the ace-jack." said Brocky Clark, a gambler, and leaving the faro table he picked the little stocking up carefully, looked at it tenderly, and when he laid it down another twenty had gone into the too to keep company with the one placed there by Dawson. Another and another came up until Yes, Totty, darling, but papa. __From various saloons_iiiinio messages earned money onough to afford to make his little pets happy ?t least once a year. You must remem bor, Totty, that WP are very poor, and although mamma works very, very bard, she can scarcely earn en«agh to supply us with food and clothes " Littlo bright-faced Benny raised his curly head from its soft nest in the warm bear-skin and cheerfully said: , "Des' wait till I dit to be a man, mamma, end 'oo won't have to wort. I's dvrtn' to be a dreat bid miner, like papa was, <m' dit 'oo ever so much money, but I won't do near 'em hateful blastin' liDgs an' dit tilled'ike papa did.' " (Jack Dawson still lingered upon the omaide 'He could not leave, although .'•i» felt ashamed of himself fo^ listen- ^ n g T l "Why bless my iittlo man, what a bravo future bo has planned! I do hope and pray, darling, that yoa will grow up a strong and good man, and one who will bo a blessing and a comfort to w:amma when she gets old." "We hung up our stockings last Christmas, didn't we mamma?" questioned the little girl. "Y«$s, Totty, but we were poor then, and Santa Claus never notices real poor people. He gave you a little candy then, just because you were such good children." "Is we any poorer'now, mamma?" "Ok, yes, much pooror. He would never notice us at all now." Jaek 'Dawson detected a tremor of sadness in the widow's voice as she uttered theJast words, and ho wiped a .suspicious dampness from his eyes. —"WbureVutn." Charm stockings,-mainma?

It was Christmas eve, and th* woman sat gazing abstractedly into tjw^kttffclftce. She was yet young, and aaWMfc R o w i n g flames kt up her sad faeHfcejinvested it with a wierd beauty. Majymewait was the wteLow of Aleck Stewart, and but two years before they bad lived-comfortably-and happy, in a .camp on (the American river. Aleck was a br&wney miner, but the premature explosion of a b l a s t ie aa underground tunnel had blotted out his life in an instant, leaving his family without a protector, and in strallenea~circumstanoes. His daily wage* had been their sole support, and now he was gone, what could they do? With her little family Mrs. Stewart had emigrated to the camp in which we Had them (all western mining towns ara called "camps"), and there she earned a precarious livelihood by washing clothes for the miners. Hors was a hard lot, but the bravo littlo woman toiled on, cheered by tte .thought that her daily labors stood between her darling little ones and the gaunt wolf of starvation. Their clothes were patched and ^bflbbTTpd their food pTaiff, and sure ho will not come,1 gathered in the mother's thought of her empty purse "I don't care, I'm going to try, anyhow. Please got one of my stockings, manima," pleaded the little girl. "Your clean stockings are on the lino outeide, and I cannot go out and hunt tbosn this bitter cold night. You may hang up your old ones, but oh, be so terribly disappointed in the morning? Tleaso loti6 go till next Christmas, and then wo ihay bo richer!" "No,\m*(Jrmia, I'm going to try anyhow.". \ Jack Dawson's great, generous heart swelled until, it seemed bursting from his bosom. He heard the patter of little bare feet upon the cabin floor as Totty ran about \ hunting her's and Benny's stoefcings, ^and after she had hung them up heardxher sweet voice again as she wondered" over and over if Santa really would forget them. H> heard the mother, in a choking voice, tell her treasures to get ready for bed; heard them lisp their childish prayers, the little girl concluding: "And, oh, Lord, please tell good Santa Clause that we are very poor, but that we love him as much as rich children do, for dear Jesus' sake—Amen!" After they were in bed, through a small rent in the plain white curtain he saw the widow sitting before the fire, her face buried in her hands, and weep* ing bitterly. On- a peg, just over the fireplace, hung two little patched and faded stockings, and then he could stand it no longer. He' softly moved away from the win-iow to the rear of the cabin where some objects fluttering to the wind met his eye. Among these he searcbed until ho found ty little blue stocking which ho removed from thef the foot of the stocking was well filled, and then came the cry from the gambling tables: "Pass her around, jack." At the word he lilted it from the table and started around the hall. Before he had circulated it at half a dozen tables it showed signs of bursting beneath the weight of gold and silver coin, and a strong coin bag. such as he used for sending treasure by express, was procured and the stocking placed inside of it. The round of the large hall was made and in the meantime the story had spread all over the camp saying: "Send the stockm"1 round the camp; boys are a-waitin' for it!" With a party at his heels, Jack went from saloon to saloon. Games ceased and tipplers left the bars as they entered each place, and miners, gamblers, speculators, everybody, crowded up to tender their Christmas gift to the miner's widow and orphans. Any one who has lived in far western camps and is acquainted with the generosity of western men will feel no surprise or doubt my truthfulness when I say that af tef the round had been made the little blue stocking and the heavy canvas bag contained over §8,000 in gold and silver coin. •Horses were procured and a party despatched to th*e larger town down on the Cosumnes from which they returned near daybreak with toys, clothing, provisions, etc., in almost endless variety. Arranging their gifts in proper shape, and soeurely tying the mouth* of the bag of coin, the party noiselessly repaired to the widow's humble cabin. The bag was' first laid on the step, and the other articles piled up in~a heap over it. On the top was laid the lid of a large pasteboard box on which was written with a piece of charcoal: "Santy Clause doesn't always giv poor Folks The Shake in this camp." Christmas dawned bright and beautiful. The night had been a stinging cold one, and when the rising sun peeped over the chain of mountains to the east, and shot its beams upon the western range, the sparkling frost flashed from the snow clad peaks as .though titeir towering heads were sprinkled dreams of comfort, and almost buried in the pile of treasures lay Totty's little blue stocking. We will not intrude longer upon such happiness, but leave the joyful family sounding praises to Heaven and—Santa Claus. The whole story soon reached Mrs Stewart's ears. She know Jack Daw' son by sight, and when she next met him, althongh the honest follow tried hard to push by her, she caught hold of his coat and compelled him to stand and listen to her tearful thanks. Tke tears shed were not ail hers, for when Jack moved away there were- drops of liquid crystal hanging to his ruddy cheeks. Four months from that "Merrie Christmas" Mrs. Stuart became Mrs. Jack Daweon, and every evening^ when the hardy miner returns from his daily labor to his comfortable and happy home, Totty and Benny will climb upon—his strong knee,? and- almost smother him with kisses, while they lovingly address him as "Our Santa Claus oapa." • A b o u t Clocks.

It is alleged she overheard her husband and sonin- Jaw talk of patting her out of the way, and went out of the house with her baby and walked three miles to a neighbor's, where she laid down the child, walked to the mirror, and with a bntcher knife cut her throat. She was probably insane. INCINERATED, < / Early the other morning, flames were seen issuing from the basement windows of the frame store of Wolf <t Goldman in rvewport, Ark. Before anything could be done, the entire structure was a bass of fir*. Sadden. ly a scream was heard issuing from the front room over the^etore, aid a women's form was seen a poment,at the window. Th« poor creature, however, fell back into the flames and was lost. The entire ttructure was burned to the ground. It bad been known that James Connor Pleasant McNuU Mrs. Devona and an unknown Jady and child had occupied the rooms over the store, and as soon as possible search was made for their remains. The next afternoon the chirred bodies of the five victims of the fire were .'•and in the ruins. MURDERED FOR MONEY. A farmer named Harrington, living .two miles from Geneva, Ohio, was called to the door a few nights ago by a knock, an4 opening it was confronted by a masked man, who sighted along the barrel of a revolver and said: "I want your mosey." Harrington took a small sum from his pockets and handed it to the robber, who took it and cried: "That isn't all; i want the balance." At that moment the handkerchief fell from his eyes, and Mrs. Harrington, standing near, exclaimed, "Oil, I know him." "You do, do you?" shouted the mffain. "Take that then," and he fired, the hulitt going through her shoulder. Btf )t.a out 01 the hease-efidt© neighbors for help Returning with friends, evidene -s or & desperate struggle were found in tie house, and Harrington lay dead on the floor a bullet bole in hisforehead. Lew.s Webster has been arrested for the "tfime.He WM the Baa recoghfzed by~Mrs. Harrington. The prisoner is a dissipated youttg fellow, belonging to a respectable lamily., When arrested, and before he knew the charge against him, he said he had not murdered or robbed anyoody. Being asked where he was the evening before, he said he was visiting a young lady to whom he is engaged to be married Christmas. This proved lalse. A revolver was found in his overcoat pocket. His handkerchief, recently washed and not dry when tx&miaed, showed blood B tains. He was quietly taken in a sleigh Dy the sheriff to Jeffer eon in order to avoid lynching, as citizens of Geneva and neighborhood were exasperated. The testimony at the it quest The dav of the inauguration oi theoeiemoniee at the World's Exposition in New Orleans on the 16th. opened bright and cheerful, and thousands of people made preparations early m the morning to witness the long exptoted event. Every public and pri vate building along the principal streets was decorated with more or less elaboration. Along the street car routes visitors from the. Northern climates wtn astonished to find hundreds of orange trees bending btneath their ripe fruit, and to see the bloom of roses and rich verdure of the kitchen and flower gardens. Many steamers bore to the exposition grounds fall complements of pats angers. At 11 o'clock Gov. McEnery, of Louisiana, Maj. Gen. Glynn, commanding the state militia, members of their staff in uniform, foreign consuls and several hundred guests assembled at the St. Charles hotel for the ipurpbse~dT pfsseemg io the ezpositloir grounds. was to the following effect: Webster emtred the house by the front porch without knocking, and went to the room where Harrington and wife sat talking. He immediately presented a revolver and demanded their money or lives. After a little parley Harrington went into another rftnTn jr>«t*titih|y nr r^i?? j A procession was formed, consisting of a battalion of the Washington artillery under Col-Richardson, the Continental guards, a fine body of men In the garb of a century ago, all of the full stature of six feet, and led by Capt. Brown, and the Crescent Rifles under Oapt. Palfrey as an escort Among the distinguished persons present were Gov. McEnery of Louisiana, Gov. Hamilton and staff of Illinois, Gov. Knott of Kentucky, Goldwotthy of British Honduras, Rev. Dr. talmage of Brooklyn, ex-Govs. Morton and Vorhees of~*tjouisi&na, and others in carriages and a long column of foot in regular order for procession, and headed by the celebrated Mexican band. The cortege moved through the crowded streets toward the river at the head of Canal street. This procession, in which were the official force of the Exposition, boarded the steamer Fred A. Blanks, and at 12.30 p. m. steamed up the river to the grounds. On the way they were entertained by the Mexican band. The various hues of these musioians, ranging from aimoat colorles* white to dusky Indian color, and equally varied character of their oddly shaped instruments, attract* d universal attention, while their unique but attractive musical performances called out repeated applause. The French man-ol-war Oonvette saluted, and then hoisting anchor assehded the river in her company. As the official boais approached the wharfs built from the Exposition grounds the Washington Artillery be gan firing a salute of 1U0 guns, and the Erecession moved towards the spacious uilding, where the inauguration ceremonies were carried out in accordance with the previously announced programme. Arriving at the gronnds the procession moved to the Exposition baildiaga. At 1 o'clock Dr. Talmage advanced to the front and made the openingj>iayer. •-. Director-General Burke, when fhe applause which greeted him and repeated cheers of the people had subsided, said: Afr. President—Standing as I do under the flags of all nations, looking into the faces of T^cvle from every clime, surrounded by e\wi-Loea of industry brought Jrom every (art of the earth, within Right of that mag- •nlflotfct gathering ot the it-sources of.my own country, wi h the duty devolved upon me of surrendering into the hand* of the manrgement an account of the stewardship of those in whom trust has been reposed, of preparing for this great national and international iesiival. I have no word of apology or regret to express. I have only profound gratification and satisfaction. The countries of the world, these representing the industries of thjworld and those representing the industries of my own nouniry. and states and territoaies of the anion, have vied with each other in contributing to the suecess o-i the festival, and have worked in. the The present occasion is the consummation of an enterprise inaugurated in conformity to an act of Congress passed Irss than two years ago, and authorizing the holding of a world's industrial and co'ton centennial exposition under the - Joint auWices oi the United States National Cotton PJanters1 Association acd city. Its location—New Orleans— was then selected as th> World's Exposition, and in Jane, 1883, thirteen commissioners, compoMng the Boar dor Management, were appointed by the President ot the United States, and at once entered upon the discharge of their duties. At an early date, however, it became manifest that the liberality or individuals ot the city and state would be inadtquete to meet the requirement of the ever-increasing magnitude of the undertaking. Accordingly application for aid was made to the United States through congress, resulting in obtaining that generous assistance which has so materially contributed to the accomplishment of the purpose contemplated. From the commencement it was determined that nothing should give a local or sectional character to the great work, but that it should be, as it truly is, a national and international 'exposition, and consequently to-day are astern bled here to get mosey, and while out Mrs. Harrington said to the intruder: "I think I know you." 1 '6 tf yci Webster aaidr "You do, do you," and straightway fired, the ball lodging in her left jurm.Aa she started torunJnta the kitchen he fired again, hhting her in the same arm, and the sennas will p£bably necessitate amputation. She escaped and gave the alarm. Running to a school house near by, where a spelling school was m progress, which her twp children were attending. It is supposed Webster then followed Harrington and fired twice, one ball being found in the staircase. A broken chair, torn plastering and blood on the wslls gave evidence ot a desperate struggle. Harrington's dead body was found in the parlor, blood flowing from a wound over —the right eye and from the mouth. MOB LAW IN DAKOTA. At the late election Wilmot, a town in southern Dakota, had a majnrity of votes cast for the county seat of Roberts county, but on account of ballot box stuffing and intimidation the canvassing board rejected two towns, thus giving Traverse a majority. A mandamus was served on the board, but after argument before Judge Smith it was quashed. A second writ was served on the board, in which Traverse won. Wilmot then attempted to take forcible possession and a mob of 100 armed men from that place went to the oaurt house in Traverse and attacked the courthouse, breaking in the dcors andwindow.*,and finally removed the county sate. Not satisfied with this the mob destroyed a large amount of private property, The cltiaens of Traveree, not wanting tj see bloodthtd, msde no resistance, and after about an hour, daring which time pa-jde montnm reigned supieme, the mob left, cirrying the county ta'e and ell ihepriyats pioptity they could find. Fortunately the clerk had removed nearly all the valuables from the safej and thty were saved. The vend is not yet. HIS DUT¥- SENT- HIM TO JAIL. John T. Lee, a clerk in the mercantile agency of R. G.

I will say in behalf of the th ands of exhibitors who are not in position that the delav is due to a cause beyopd their control, but I say to the public whtfare entitled to this explanation that there is not in all the buildings under our control 100 feet of space unallotted or unappropriated, which will not be occupied in the/daaeof the workers, and my u&ociatea tender and place in your hands the buildings and grr unds which have been prapared/ior this Exposition." After the Mexican baud had rendered some selection a, concluding with the natienal air (the audience standing meantime), President Richardson, of the Exposition Association, was introduced and delivered his j»ddrws. Col. Gu8 A. Bieanx read President Arthur's address, which had iust been received" by telegraph. When he concluded the sentence declaring the World's Exposition now open, the President closed the electric circuit ai<d the machinery WAS put in motion. At the same moment a large portrait of the President was placed in position in the center of the platform aud greeted with great applause. Mayor Guillotte then welcomed the people to the 11position in a. short address. Gov. McEnery delivered an address in which he reviewed the history of the organization of the Exposition and set forth the great advantages to accrue tc the state and people of the whole ccuntxy from the ?r*nd enterprise. ••* - After this speech a poem in honor of the Exposition by Mrs. Townsend was read by Page M. Baker. IN WASHINGTON. There was considerable delay in the opening exercises of the New Orleans Exposition whioh took plaoeat the National capital. A larre crowd of distinguished people had gathered at the White House, and every arrangement was made for the President to open the exposition in an appropriate ttyle* The President took his station at the telegraph table, and remained standing there, surrounded by his Cabinet, for over half an honr before the signal that everything was in readiness, was received by the telegraph operator. The crowd became impatient and manyleft the building. The sig»Hl was reoeived at half'past 2Trtrtoak, and fa a few" moments the .„ ADDKESS OK PRESIDENT RICHARDSON, Ot the Exposition, was received as follows: To the President of the United Sta*s representatives of all nations of the world, aid* by aide with those of our own national government, and ot every state and territory in this union. All have'contributed examples of their resources and their progress in the wdtoderfal collection of industrial, commercial, educational and artistic objects now open to the inspection of the world. How much of good shall result from the means of instruction here furnished is beyond mortal power to measure, but certainly not the least benefit to be derived from this exposition will be the closer and more friendly intercourse of our own people with those ofother countries, the development of common interests and firmer fstahluhment of peace in our own country. It will be 'a monument of an era of unity ot interests, of harmony and good feeling destined it is believed, to endure as long as the continent itself shall exist, on which these now perfectly United States are established. i 9P/JS.present to you this exposition, aa ready "as our best effort*", with the brief period of time at our command have been able to make it, and for the decree or success attalsed we appeal to a generous judgment.

And declared the exposition upeoed, which was at once telegraphed to New Orleans. It is as follows: In the name of the people of the republic, I congratulate the citizens of the Southwett on their advancing prosperity, ai mani'ested by the great international exposition ton about to open. Tne interest ot the nation it that section of our commonwealth baa found expieision in many ways, and notably in appropriations for the improvement ot the _Misciislppi, and*by a national loan to promote the presentexposition.

The people, also, oi our own country, thus brought closer together, will find in tnis exposition of competitive industries motives to strengthen the bor,ds of brotherhood.

Adam Schardt lives on Kelly's island. He is a rare.old German with a sweet accent. He gives the following history of the early settlers of Kelly's Island: ID the first place, tho island was literally covered with snakes and reptiles, and no human being, not oven the noble red man, had the courage to dispute their right and title to the island. During a heavy storm, manv years ago, a schooner was wrecked off AlcGodgain's Point. The boat carried Ja cargo of live hogs. All hands were lost, but the hogs swam ashore, and, as they found little else to feed upon, they made a diet of snakes*. In the course of time they succeeded in devouring all the snakes on the island. Then the Kelly family put in an appearance and began devouring the hogs, a feat which was accomplished easily and quickly. Nothing has since succeeded in exterminating the KaUf family. A cottoD picker that can do the work of forty men and can be run by one mule is one of tho sights of the machinery department of tho New Orleans Cotton Exposition. In Switzerland they have a habit of arresting Mormon missionaries and throwing thom into jail that has a tendency to discourage proselyting. _jbiaGrXfialEastefn-Sltiajnship.is larger in tonnage than Noah's ark was. according to the generally acccptod measurements of that famous but mythical vessel. -"' iee were cleared.

Mr. Sherman asked if is wan proper to receive these remoqstranoes in public session, and the chair tuled that it was.

Mr. O'Hnra Batd it was indisputable that congress had a right to say how property should be carried on railroads, how cattle ahculd be carried. Who could doubt then that congress had a right to eay how ptraons traveling on railroads should be treated? He held that all citizens of the United States were entitled to equal protection. This was not a question oi caste or color; it was a question of dealing fairly with all persons, Mr. Began did not doubt the power of congress in the premises, but the question of transportation of persons had noi been cou-idered in committee, and he thought it t 0-important a matter to be legislated upon without examination.

In the Island of J a v a , between the cities of Batavia and Samarang, is the kingdom of Bantam, which, although tributary to Holland, is an independent state. The sovereign is, indeed, a man, but all the rest of the government belongs to the fair s e \ . The king is entiroly dependent upon his state council. T h e highest authorities, military commanders and soldiers are, without exception, of the female sex. These amazdas ride,in tbe amazon style, wearing sharp steel points instead of spurs. They carry a pointed lance, which they swing very gracefully, and also a musket, which is discharged at full-gallop. T h e capital of this little state lies in the most picturesque part of the island in a fruitful plain, and is defended by two well-kept fortresses. a bullet in a stump. Witness thought it jwas a 38-calibre, but found afterwards that it was a 32. Tne defense *ay they will prove that it was shot from Dan Hoioomb's pistol and thss show it was a 32.

The First Grave at Cooperstown. V" BY, GUS HAMILTON. ( A t r u e S t o r y . ) w ^aTClty-Tritrane. - - "Hey thar, me bye, stir yerself beoffwid yer from he*e now," No. 497 of the New York City and " spoke police And as the idea flashed across his mind the second time he considered it with favor. Laying in a stock of eatables at a neighboring grocery with some change earned during $he day, he returned to the train and soon after was comfortably located inside tbe car that was labeled for Port Huron. It was a bright morning in April, 1881, that Andrew Husel and Herbert Chamberiain of St. Clair, Mich., were loading sevoral cars with stock, agricultural implements and a general farm outfit at Port Huron for their ranch near Cooperstown, Griggs county, Dakota, a place of 300 or 400 people in the midst of a rich and thrifty agricultural district, comparatively speaking. Both were energetic young men of well-to-do families. They were bound to rough it in the far west in hope* of realizing satisfactorily upon their investment in course of time. In other words they intended to ascertain if there was any virtue in the advice of the honored and lamented Horace Greeley, when he said. "Go we3t, young man, go west.'1 While thus engaged a ragged lad, genus roundabout, was seen to emerge from a box car on a side track nearly opposite, and walk in the direction of the gentlemen alluded to in the foregoiDg paragraph. As he approached the gentlomen" rested from their work and stared at him. He excited their curiosity, and true enough he would have excited anyone's curiosity. He was the picture of abject poverty and destitution. For two nights and a day he had ridden almost unceasingly in the jolting, uncomfortable box car, and was nearly prostrated from hunger and thirst. "Good morning, sirs," he said feebly, yet politely, removing his cap and crushing it in his left hand as a sort of an exhibition of his bashfulness, "will you -kifrdly toll me if this is Port Huron?1' "It is," was the response of the gentleman. "You look as if you were slightly broken up, my boy, what's the matter?" rejoined Mr. Chamberlin, after a slight pause. "Nothing much, sir, but I've had a long cold ride, and I'm not feeling very well from it, sir," was the la<Fs answer. "Where are you from?" —^New-York cityv^iiv^ I rode ML t he closed, and Jack became one of the party who were to operate a bachelor's hall on a Dakotaraeeh. The-idea of life in the far west, with such a tempting recompense for that which he would willingly Jhave accepted for nothing, was one of grandeur for poor Jack. He began to think that the bright side of life was bfiginning to dawn and that night when lie retired he declared him - self the happiest he had over been. Three years have elapsed and the seene^aflg-esto the great territory of Dakota. Within a few miles of Cooperstown is the large and well-cultivated ranch of the young men who left St. Clair in 1881. Crops have been abundant and profitable, and they find thai Horace Greely hit the nail plump on the head when he advised a. trip to the west. Andrew Husel has become a benedict, having married a sister of Herbert Chamberlain, while the latter and Jaik Burns are living near by in the old "bachelor's hall. Everybody is happy and. contented. The news of their success has been wafted home toSt. Clair, and Charles Husel, a brother of Andrew, has taken up his residence in their midst, and like his brother, has taken unto himself a wife, and it may be of interest to know that Mrs. Charles Husel was formerly one of Bay City's fair daughters, a" young lady of accom- J ^gLlffteleton ^ 1 ^ 6 r a ^e rhytina, that way in that car." "And with nothing to eat?'' "Oh, ye3, sir. I had some crackers force, adding presently "that "I 'low-^io J-whichI bought when I left 1 % mon ter slap'e on me bate, so be off wid yer, and don't let me see yer when I come back." * The guardian of the peace addressed his remarks to a poorly clad youth of fourteen } cars, whom ho had found asleep upon a dry goods box in the rear of Bates, Re^ih&rGooley's-store ofrj-*- silverdollar t o t b e b o y w h o Broadway. This lad was Jack Burns, the subject of this story. Tired out in body and mind, and utterly destitute of a home or even a bed, he had seated himself upon the box to rest, and with the intention of crawling inside at a favorable opportunity and, going to sleep for the night. Involuntary, sleep overcame him and not until the policeman's baton pounded loudly upon the, box, did be realize that he had allowed himself to fall asleep. ^"Pleaso sir, do notestrike me." piteously pleaded the youth upon awakening naif dazed and seeing the officer with club in hand. "I'll bo away directly sir," and at the word he alighted to the ground and stretched his weary frame, aa the policeman slowly moved awayy-making a threatening gesture; \ which was as much as to say that if the lad did not mind he might be gathered in as a suspicious character. Jack Burns, from/birth had resided in tho great metropolis and during all that time he had never "known tho hallowed inflnence/Of a home. Motherless, fatherless, and without a known relative in the wide, wide world, his life had been a/blank, and up to tho time we found him upon tho box npon Broadway, he had lived or rather subsisted,/ afl hundreds of other lads do in the great city of New York. • B u t life as a bootblack, newsboy and cipdss-walk sweeper had grown monototionous to him. He aimeft higher than /his companions arid were the truth / known, they would have found him one / ol God's little noblemen. He had a *1ll|!ge true heart, lofty aspirations, y^WUQdance of energy and pluck, and inv / -oocruptible moral sense. His ambition "But you must be hungry. Here is a dollar. Take it and get something to eat, «md when you get tkrough you can return me the change and help us to load some of the goods in payment for the amount you have spent," and with this remark he handed took it reluctantly at first, and expressing nis gratitude" said he would return, and then hastened away to appease his hunger and allay his thrist. "I am afraid that this is tho last you •will see of tho dollar or the boy," rem arked Mr. Husel to Mr. Chamberlin, in a jesting manner after the boy was out of hearing distance." "It may bo, but I thought 1 v, oul"d~ try his honesty." It's worth a dollar once in a while to test a person's honesty. If he comes back I will know that ho is honest If ho does not, then I'm a dollar out of pocket, that's all. But 1 believe that he has an hotiest face, if I'm any kind of a physiognomist. The poor boy looked as if he had'nt a friend in tbe world and had'nt a good square moal in .a-yeatv"- '— "To tell the truth I was favorably impressed with the boy's fac;o myself," said Mr. Hu3sel, "even if not with his . / / commendable for one in .his station in life. He had all of the ingredients that when given a chance to show themselves, produced a self made man, a man of honesty, integrity, and great character, a man worthy of the name. His desire was to become ajuan among •"wen, to secure that which he had never known—a - home> -And, as ho slowly fr Walked down Broadway with the grufF ommands of the police officer nging in his ears he thought of his estiny. "Oh, for a home, for a mother's kind»word, and a father's warm touch" h* sigodrraoA on he pushed through the crowds that were hastening homeward. Anirour later we find him at St. John park where a freight train for, Buffalo —andthe-west is being made up on the New York Central and Hudson river railroad. ."This, car," said one brakesman to another, "goes to Port Huron," and tacking a card upon the door, he loft for another part-of the train. Jack heard the trainman's remarks and immediately a thought struck him. Why not stow himself Tn tho car and rid** to Port Huron? Ho was tired of life in New f o r k city; it was the same thing day in and day out, and he was tired of it. The chances were that he could do as well in Port Huron as in New York,\ surely he could do no worse. outward appearance." The gentlemen then resumec1 their work, thinking if he would make his promise good and return with the change. Fully an hour past and yet no sign of Jack Burns. His benefactors had about given up the idea of seeing him again, when he was discovered close upon them, his face beaming with smiles, and in every feature cotfll be read. his gratitude for the kindness shown him.—He satisfactorily explained his prolonged abscence by saying that he entered a resturant in a distant part of the city and it was ^with some"difficulty _that he found his way back. Extending his hand to Mr. Chamberlin with the ehange from the dollar, he said: "Mister, I'm so very thankful to you sir, I'll help you load the cars all day." During the morning Mr. Chamberlin and Mr. Husel drew out from the boy his name, the history of his past life so far as he knew, and learned his great desire for a home. "So you want a home, do you," remarked Mr. Chamberlin during the conversation. "Suppose I make you an offer, would you accept itP" "I most certainly should, sir," was the quick reply "But I have not yet stated what the offer will be." "Neither do 1 care, sir.. ^Anything coming from you I will accept, trusting that it will be more* than I deserve, sir." "How old did you say vou were, Jack?" "Fourteen past." "Well, Mr, Husel and myself are going to Dakota, as you already know, and for a time we arc to keep bachelor's hall on the ranch. If you will accompany us there, I will promise you that when you reach the age of 21 years, I will give you 160 acres of land to be your own, in the mean time furnishing you with clothes and plenty to eat." "Oh, how good you are, Mr Chamberlin," interrupted Jack, overpowered with joy. So the bargain was then nnd there plishmenls and refinement. But what of Jack Burns? He is now a great big sturdy boy of seventeen years. He is an entirely different per son than when we found him asleep upon a dry goods box. Three years of farm life have transformed him into a fine specimen of humanity. During tho winters he attended the school, and beginning with the education he obtained by studying signboards of New York merchants, he has made wonderful progress. He can read and write, is well up in geography and mathematics, and has a better learning than many boys of his age who havebeen favored with public school privileges. On tbe ranch he has been one of the most impoitant hands. His benefactors learned to love him as a brother from the first day of their acquaintance, and he has been treated in social and business ways as a member of the family. Such good reports were sent to St. Clair about him that the old folks at home sent him last spring a colt, as a present. It was aT highspirited, handsome looking animal, and when it reached Cooperstown and was given to Jack the poor boy wept with gratitude. It is November, 1884. The cold west wind blows across tbe plains of Dakota, and the white-winged messenger has hidden the verdure-covered prairies. An event has occurred in the history of Cooperstown that will long be remembered, and which will go down into the annals of the place as one of the saddest and most heart rending. The angel of death has entered the Chamberlain ranch. Up on the hillside, off from the accustomed highway, can be seen, glittering in the sunlight, a solitary gravestone. The passing traveler stops there to satisfy a curiosity. Moving over a well beaten path to the mound, he read 3 upon its mark the following words: Sacred to the memory of • JOHN BUKNS, DiodOct. 5, 1884. Poor Jack. He came to an untimely en dTEro ugh IvrT accident -whi^h-oecur-=- red on tbe evening of Oct. 4. While leading his colt to water the animal reared, and kicking him on the head inflicted a wound from which death resulted one day later. And thus it became the lot of a New York City outcast,—faithful from the first,' truthful always, and with tho bright side of life just realized—to fill the first grave at Cooperstown, Dakota. Both F o o d a n d Light. "N. Y. Tribune. "Turn out the gas,"said the^naturalist ' 'and I will show you the latest thing in light: that is^" he added, "the latest thing in that line in British Columoia." As the gas went out the speaker unrolled several objects that had an "ancient and fish-like smell," and striking a match touched one. A moment later a clear, yellow light appeared, issuing from what looked like the month of a nsh ,th© candle end oi\ which was thrust linto a large bronze candlestick. "Yes," said the naturalist, "it is a fish and nothing else, no tube nor oil within, only the fish just as it came from the water. Take this paper and read a line and become one of the very few who can boast that they have read by the light of a dead herring " * Tha light was found equal to that of a candle, and reading by fish light was. aa easy matter. "It is curious," resumed the student of nature, "but I have got so that if I should see a man uie himself as a cand l e l shouldn't be much surprised. The use of a firh as a candle I first observed when on the north shore of British Columbia. 1 made a trip all through the country for the purpose of obtainholding three pints or more and filled with oil. The candle fish is allied to the smelt, and is known scientifically as tho McUlolua Paelficus, and in former days was found in tho vicinity of British Columbia in vast numbers. The mouth of the Columbia river is said to have been a famous place for them, but the great factories and the steamers have gradually driven them off, so that there are only a few places, comparatively speaking, where great numbers can be found. wa$*rilcd off about a< hundred years j ago, and I ran across other curious things well worth knowing. I had lived ija an Indian village nearly a week before 1 heard anything about the candlefish, and one beautiful moonlight night I was standing on the beach when I saw something that appeared exactly like the reflection of the moon, only it was in the wrong direction. I called tho attention of a native to it and it seemed to throw him into the greatest excitement. He cried out "Eulachon!' as hard as he could, and in a few minutes fifteen men were on the shore launching their canoes. Tharo was so much confusion that I couldn't learn what w'as the matter; so I jumped into one of the boats and off we went. There were two men iD each of the canoes but ours. One sat in the stern and paddled, while the other stood in the bow with a curious-looking instrument in his hand that I had not seen beforerit looked like~an enormous rake or comb, made of a piece of pine at least eight feot long, with a hole for a hand grip at—the—topy -tbe~4oweV^arV thinning off to an edge,.into which were driven'sharp iron or bone teeth from three to four inches apart. The use was soon evident; it was an arrangement for lishing. The ripple I had noticed on the water was an enormous school of fish, called by the natives 'Eulachon,' and to surround them now seemed to be the chief object. "The canoes were swiftly paddled out —until they were'all upon the outside of the fish—and then they rushed at them full speed, each manwielding his comb like a scoop, dashing it into the sparkling mass of fish that gleamed like silver, and at every stroke so thick were they that the teeth o the comb came up covered with impaled fishes. These were quickly jerked into the boats and another dash made, and so on, until finally the school was driven in shore. and tho excited natives leaped into the water and fairly scooped them into their canoes, where their vivid phosphoresence made them look like molten silver. Tho fish seemed so terrified a n i demoralized that they hugged the shore, and it the men had had a net instead of those outlandish combs, they could haye captured millions where they onlT* took thousands. The boats were rapidly filled, however, and-i A d m i r a l F o o t e a n d t h e G u n - B o a t s . James B. Eais in tbe Century A "In the railway train a gentleman who sat in front ol me, learning that I had constructed Foote's vessels, introduced himself as Judge Foote of Cleveland, a,brother of the admiral. Among other interesting matters fie related an anecdote of one of his little daughters who was just learning to read; After the capture of Fort Henry the squadron was brought back to Cairo for repairs, and, on the Sunday following, the crews, with their gallant flag-officer, attended one of the churches in Cairo. Admiral Foote was a thorough Christian gentlman and excellent impromptu speaker. On this occasion, after the congregation had assembled, some one whispered to him that tbe minister was" -illanri wouldJaa. jun&ble to officiate^ whereupon the admiral went up into the pulpit himself, and after the usual prayer and hymn, he selected as tho text John xiv. 1, 'Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also LP me.' Upon this text he delivered what was declared to be an excellent sermon, or exhortation, afterwhich he dismissed the congregation. An account of the sermon was widely published in the papers at the time, and came into the hands of the little niece just referred to. After she had read ic, she exclaimed to her father: " 'Uncle Foote did not say that right.* " 'Say what right?' asked the father, " 'Why, when ho preached.' " -What did he say?' " 'He said, "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, "believe also in m e . " ' ' y •''Well, what should he have said?' inquired the father. *• 'Well, he ought to have said' "Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in Godl-beiieye also in the gun-boats." ' " W h e n to Go t o N e w Orleans. Harpers Baiaar. Undoubtedly March and April are the pleasante"st months of the year to visit New Orleans. They are the nToHLh of roses, of mocking lards And of everything that is beautiful and delightful in tho far South. During these two months only light clothing, such as would be worn in tbe North in the summer, will be required, but spring overcoats and wraps will be needed in the evenings, antj occasionally in the dayT time when the wind is from the north. During December, January and February New Orleans weather is very variable. There is, of course, no snow, but there is much rain and dampness, mingled with an equal proportion of sunshine and warmth. Occasionally "northeners" send the mercury down to the forties, and even into thirties; and flannel underclothing should invariably be worn during these months. New Orleans is by no means a tropical city, nor are its houses so well adapted to withstand cold and damp as those of more northern tudes. Iati- Taken a t His W o r d . Ex. s It was one of the genius tramp. He knocked at tho door of a house, and when a kindly looking woman opened it, he said: / "Madam, I am very hungry. I have had nothing for a week back'" "Why, yoVpopr.soul/'fcaid the.* woman, " w a a p m o m e & P ^ , ¾ ^ something forty)!.!.. ' ordered that said And s h e l v e t the pem.ns interested tor, aaW^lSed t h ^ 4 . ¾ ¾ tSS u r the excitement-was over, and the canoes were hauled up on the beach by the exhausted fishermen. The next morning early the boats were emptied on the beach, and the catch was handed over to the squaws, who took the entire matter of curing in hand. They seated themselves about their respective piles, and, taking sticks pointed at tho ends, rapidly strung the fish upon them by piercing them through the eyes. Then they were taken by children and placed in ! the smoke at the top of their sheds. There was no cleaning or scaling:. When thoroughly dried tho fish have a flavor of wood smoke. They are packed in large flails made of cedar bark and rushes of various kinds. They are then stowed away on a scaffol ding made of high poles, and are not touched until cold weather. The natives call them in our tongue candle fish, as they not only eat them, but use Jihem to burn, as 1 have shown you. Previous to this catch I had had no light, but afterward I luxuriated in a candle every night, and wrote my reports and took my notes all by the light of the 'Eulachon.' The little fish seem fairly bubbling over wittroiir so much so that I tried to fry . one, and turning away for a few moments 1 returned to find the back and other bones jumping around in a lot of fat; the flesh had melted. The oil is used as a medicine; it keeps them warm as fuel, gives them li^ht, and the flesh is a rich food in its dned1 state, and when the fish are eaten the bones are swallowed. To burn them they take a> pointed stick, insert it in the ground and make a slit in the other end, into which they stick the fish and light it. There is no trimming or smoking, and when the light is no longer needed it is blown out and the remainder of the fish is eaten. . Sometimes the fish are very abundant, and the surplus is all made into oil that is used for a variety of purposes by tho natives. In what 1 f "Tactr-" ' -' January Atlantic.

Notwithstanding the frequent closing of iron mills, and the general dullness, there are here and there signs that the bottom of the depression has been reached, and that we are starting out in Ev new era of business revival and prosperity.

School children know but very tew words, have but few ideas, and express themselves with little fluency or grace. To remedy this defect the Lifo and Adventures of Ribinsen Crusoe has just been issued as a school reader, by a Boston firm. Notwithstanding its age, this wonderful story still holds its own in the hearts of children, and as a school reader will doubtless be a success. FROM New-Lebanon,Columbia county, N. Y., comes the story of the clesfr y a singular and miserly existence of 8* husband and wife. M*. and Mrs. Adams both died thero recently, their deaths occurring close together. The husband ^edTbrst, "He had for sQme^years kept in the house boards for his coffin. At his death the wife hired a man to make the coffin. He wanted $1.50 for the job, but the economical widow would only pay $1. She died scan after, and then on searching the house $35,000 in government bonds, three bushels of pennies and several bank-books showing thousands of dollars on deposit were found. It is said that for twenty years they had used neither meat nor soap in the house. disposition. They remainea at home, subsisting on small faro and small comforts, but multiplied and increased. The nation took from him as race all he could achieve and gave him only the principles of duty. The Negroes were asked to come to the rescue of the Union in the hour of its peril and 220.C00 fought in tha, uniform of Nation's soldiery. In the South 80 per cent of the colored men were unable to read the ballots which they cast and SO per cent of the whites were in a like condition. Slavery and rebellion wore minor quesr tions compared to what was before the country to-day. It required national actio^otiueet the vast requirements ef this imjfctant question. The colored men of tM 3Quthwere gathering that spirit of aeterainVtton- and resistance which may be controlled foha few years but which can not be controlled for any great length of time without education. The only remedyjwas enlightenment and that must be diffused .among both whites and blacks, not by charity but by the government. QUAKING EARTH. Two Andalusian Cities Badly Jhakcn.

The lady was accustomed' to paint a small vose bud or a single spray of flowers upon a cabinet card. She had never taken lessons in painting, but was gifted with so much talent that the designs sold as soon as finished.

SINCE the election Grover Cleveland has had babies and pug, dogs by the score named after him, but «11 those little honors have been cast in the shade by a New York Diamond importer, who has named the largest diamond ever cut in the United States, " The Cleveland Gem," in honor of Mr. Cleveland. The diamond was found a t tl e Cape of Good- Hope, and weighed seventy-eight carats. When cut it will weigh between forty and fifty carats, and will be valued at forty thousand dollar*. There is only one other^man in the United States who has been lucky enough to have a great^gem named after him, and althou^b/it could never brinsj forty thousand^if put.^n|sale, it comfort to gentleman in whose honor it was named bore the cognomen of Graham, and the world renowned Graham gem has probably one more to make people happy than the Cleveland gem ever will.—Peck's Sun. has brought happiness and more than one^ man. The ALBION W. TOURGKE delivered a lecture in Chioag6 recently in which he made the prediction that unless the Negroes were speedily enlightened, they would rise in rebellion against the whites of the South. He said that at present eight States with £,000,000 of white peopde, contained 4,000,000 of , colored people, and statistics showed that ' the blacks were increasing over the whites at the rate of one per cent a year^_JiniincU | pation did not give independence to the ilavs, nor did tbey possess a migratory Romano© and Bomanoo in Maine Although the daysare now nearly passed when good people speak disapprovingly of fiction, yet a large part of mankind oontinue to consider it as of less importance than other kinds of reading, •and the time spent in its perdsal as little Tjetter than wasted. This doubtless, is true, if by fiction is meant that class of books which deal in improbable characters and events, or those which hold up vice to be admired and virtue to be ridiculed; but books of this sort,' although far too numerous, are not the kind which fill the libraries of the state and are sold over the counters of mei chants. The Jarger part of our knowledge of the manners and customs of any period or people is derived from storids or romances' which deal in the little affairs of everyday life. We know how the people of Greece in the time of Homer Lived and worked, from the Iliad and Odyssey, and a much clearer idea of life in the middle ages can be gained from Scott's novels than from the pages of Hume or any other historian. Every nation has had its own local poets and novelists who have gleaned its peculiarities and woven them into a compact form in which they might be given to the world, and many a heroic oVM or picturesque incidentwbuld D*ve beon forgotten but for their labors. Maine has produced her share of the writers but thoiiterature of the state is not so rich" as it ought to have been, one reason being that so many of ber *ons and daughters have preferred tQlet tneir fancy wander in foreign lands rather than in scenes near at home. Mrs. Stowe has,, indeed, immortalized Orr's island; Whittier, Longfellow and a host of minor poets Have sung the praises of some of Maine's lakes, rivers and mountains; Kollogg has graphically depicted life in Harpswell and vicinity in the early days of its settlement; "Sophie May" has charmed the younger people with accounts of every-day life so like their own as to seem real, and other writers," more or less famous, have added to the list,- but yet the, mention of Maine does not call to mind one-half its beau- The details of an earthquake in Spain on Wednesday night, Dec. 24,have besn received and show that it was mnc a more disastrous than at first anticipated.

The upper peninsula this winter will probably furnish three of the most important Michigan cases that will come before congress, viz.: forfeiture of the lands of the Marquette, Houghton & Ontonagon railway, the Ontonagon_& Brule railroad lands and the lands of the Lake Superior ship canal company. These corporations are powerful, and the lands in question are very valuable. Concerning the lands of the Marquette, Houghton & Ontonagon the sentiment here where the lands are is strongly in favor of their non-forfeiture. This is principally because of the purchasers who have^boughT^attds of the railroad company, and whose rights to the land would be nullified by the forfeiture. The road is^wnod-pri ncipallyand controlled by Boston capitalists.

DECBMBER 2 2 , PKNATB—Mr. Plumb introduced a bill (O establish wu _ Tsrfditionai ~hurd district - Dakota. Oa motion of Mr. Manderson a bil was passed extending to the port oi Omaha t'je provisions of the act relating to tbe immediat.« iransocrration of duti>«h]e gryofa. Mr. Blair called up the bill providme for a cammissioa to tximioe into the liquor traffic. He said ]t was a bill already passed four time* by toe San ate but had not been acted on by the House. The motion was opposed, but the bill was taken up and passed, 24 to 16. Mr. Hale from the committee on appropriations reported with amen daunts the House bill making a tempo r«ry provision for the naval service. He explained that the Senate committee had amended the thirty-one day bill by substi tuting for it the proviaiona of the regular annual appropriation bill for the fiscal year ending June SO, 18S5, precisely as the House had passed it last sesalon but modified so as to cover only the remaking half of the fiscal tha amendments formerly inserted by and has made itself unpopuTftrlfmiih|f the past ten years by its almost extortinate rates, which were of course accepted, as it was the paly road through the Marquette iron range. The thirty miles of the road were completed in the fall of 1888, from L'Anse to Houghton. Regarding the grani to the Ontonagon & Brule river road, there is much diversity of opinion, It looks as if each party was striving for the valuable mineral lands of the grant, with chances and rights about equal. The quarrel over this grant was what made possible the nomination of Seth Moflattof Grand Traverse to congress last September. As a rule the Ontonagon & Brule people are against versa. The forfeitute of the grant of the ]_Lake Superior ship canal company's immense and valuable lands is a matter of much greater importance than either of these two. Some of the most valuable mines, mineral lands and timber lands of the peninsula aro located upon their grant and the forfeiture question will be hotly contested. A. B. Swinefordof Marquette is the originator of this scheme of forfeiture, and has a large aud powerful backing. On the other hand the ehip canal company »^1», ^e^ °J to? year, is hidden in the Indian names of places l the Senate relating, to nonitors and steel pie glory in tho doods of King Arthur, but tbey have no better claim on the British hero than havo the Englishspeaking people "Of Maine on the braves of the Penobeeots and Tarratines. That there is here a rich although nnworked vein is seen in Longfellow's "Hiawatha," although that poet ohose for his hero a chief of a Western, rather than of an Eastern tribe. The names, which these early residents have left behind them, from Madawaska to OguaquU will loug serve as memorials—of their originators and may. at some future day, serve as a clue to a better knowledge of events, strange, thrilling or pathetic that transpired on the soil'of Maine, hundreds of years ago. oraisera being left~out. The bill, so far as amounts went, stood precisely on the basis on whioh the House has passed the original appropriation for the year, in that the Senate maintained its attitude, considering this year's repositions and not those of a former year. He said he would call the bill up tomorrow in sxeautiva session. The Senate then adjourned. DECEMBER 23. SIXATX.—Mr. Vest of Missouri, offered a eononrrent resolution providing that the eon* grisubttal record shall be an accurate trans* arlpt ot the debates, and no speech shall be published which was not spoken ia the Senate or House of Kepreeenuoivea, aad no ohatges shall be made txoept verbal correetlona by the author, and any speech retained tttr the correction shad he returned in one week, otherwise it shall be print* d from the original notes of the reporter.

The result was that in .eme cases eonlimited amount of cash. That the company has not fulfilled the conditions requisite to the continuation of the land parts is well known, yet it is powerful, and unless a land grarft forfeiture mania takes possession of congress their tight for the land may very likely be successful. These three grants and the question of their forfeiture are of great importance to the people of Upper Michigan. • President Cleveland will be accompanied to Washington by his sister, Mrs. Hoyt Mrs. Hoyt is the wife of a bank cashier-in Central New York, whose own home is so happily arranged that she is free .to preside over her brother's household.

MR. JBJMTOR:--Will you allow me space in your paper to ask whether an important period in the history of our tillage is not at hand? It is thought by some we bad better disincorporate, and a petition has been in.circulation to that effect, and been quite numerously signed. The principal reason for this action, as I understand, is the expense connected with the corporation proceedings. I am informed we are free from debt, and have in the treasury, in round numbers,. about four hundred aud fifty dollars. Our lockup and pound are built, and all necessary expenses incident to village regulations paid. We have been in operation less than two years; and I submit, whether, in the favorable condition of the treasury, we had not better try the experiment a little longer. If it is thought the council has been extravagant elect trustees upon whose purses taxes will draw heavily that they will be raojre. economical, and if some of the officers have not performed theii duties, nor lived up to the village ordinance, as we are near another election leave them out, and have elected or appointed those who will live up to their sworn duty. We have in our incorporation act a clause much more B9B BSE mtp+mmmmmmmmmrmmmB*m$mrmmmmm*mm •p> / x. to our advantage than most other villages, providing that the township shall be at most of the expense for bridges within our corporate limits; a provision, which, in all probability, should we surrender our charter and sometime ask for another, we would not be fortunate-enopgh to procure. I have been told by a number wbo signed the petition that had t!"ey known the c<»nditiori of the treasury and understood other things as they do now, they would have done \ery ilifll'mUly. Individually, in the fir^t placet was opposed to having the village incorporated, and when this /petition to repeal the act. was spoken of, thought favorably of-if, but upon ascertaining the-^condition of the treasury,,and being satisfied of the, veryiimall ailditi«>nnl.j?xpen$e it haslJ.Wi "been in the past, and is likely to be in the future and of the manv advantages that may irise from incorporation, I am free to say that dis-incorporation, in my opinion, would be a step in the wrong direction; and I believe many others who favored it at first are of the same opinion, and —prnhahly for the ftftma rpjmonq, I have no ^oubt enterprises have been commenced and capital invested that would not have been done had we not been incorporated. Now, should this subject be presented to the Legislature, and acted upon in accordance Xwith the prayer of the petitioners, iibw will the $450, the lockup and the pouna\be disposed of? is a question, that should be rationally and satisfactorily answered before so important a matter isN ajlqwed to pass beyond our control, besides will it not i>e placing our representative in an ombarrasing, humiliating and stultified position, to present a petitio to have an act repealed, and that with- )Ut good reasons, which he^labored with 50 much energy, less than two years ago, to have enacted?

All is a grist that comes to the hopper of a good local paper. Why, if you were to undertake to write a letter each week to your absent friend and tell hair the news that your loca) paper gives you would soon give up in despair. The supposed pleasure becomes tiresome, the letters grow shorter, farther apart, and finally quit. Why <he difference? Because with the newspaper it is business. People in a live town recognize this and tale pleasure in giving the editor the hews items you wouid never learn of. It you want an absent friend to have all the happenings of the town and yicinity, send him the local paper.—Ex. ^\2^**" 5*v ^ff]2^ ^ ¾ ^ <*£:J*^ <** J** ^ ^ ^ '**K <** ' **•* 4 T > . ^r- >*.

Harrington bought eever«l farm* but paid for none, and stated he WM taw thirdjierean at tha Croueh aaose the morning after the murder.

Chu.ee Fletcher said he lived one-fourth of a mile from Ypsllanti. and a man calling himstll 0. D. Harrison was at his house lait spring and made a bargain wit a witness to buy his J arm, and told witness he had just •old a farm near Jackson to Mr. Merriman of 470 acres. Julie Fletcher wu« the next witness and corroborated her husband's story. Jonathan W* Harrison was the next to be taken in by the opium eater Harrington. He had bargained hie farm to Harrington under the name of 0. D. Harrison. Several otter witneeees followed in the seme strain. Alfred Snyder saw Polley at Horton November 20,1883, ana Policy had a package ofmoney half an inch thick with a $60 bill -on the bottom and a $1 bill on the top. Mrs. Me&ornsn, wite of the Sheriff at Mason, said ahe saw Allen and HuQ walked by thejaileiffht or ten times before they came in, and they did not knock at the hall -door. Katie awlota, a short and extremely stout German girl, who used to woik for the ghenff at Mason, oame nezt, and more than corroborated Mie.

Smith testified that he bought hogs and cauls ot Jacob Crouch about three years ago and Dan Hoibomb looked alter the ttaneaction for Mr. Crouch. Mrs. Blmer Hatch swore that she was walking with Ella Shannon sinoe the trial began and Ella eaid ana had/>tieard what a horrid looking man Detective Baker was, and wanted witness t» point fiOh out.

Mr. Gibson asked leave to put the name of Gilbert Wilson on the information for the reason that he learned ainoe the adjournment of oourt the other day that Mr. Wilson was the possessor of impottant evidenoe for the people. The defenceobjected, and it wss argued for some time, and the court said he would take a statement 0/ what the evidence -would beandiule on its admission In the -morning. Mr. Montgomery then offered the deposition of the defendant's wile, Taken daring the inquest at Holoomb's house, as she was sick, and as she had sinoe died sue oould not now be produce! Toe deposition was not signed and the prosecution objected to it, and argument followed to the hour ot adjournment. The main poktof the deposition is to show that Holoomb did not go out of his house the night of the murder. On the morning of December 80 the court ruled out Mrs. Holoomb's deposition,.taken «t the inquest as evidence. Toe court al*o rul.d that the proseoution oould not add the name of Gilbert Wilson to the information. What Wil«cn would swear to was furnished the oourt by the prosecution, but JudgeGridiey said: "I don't think itim CHint enough." It was a conversation D*n d with Wilson which showed Holoomb waseegniiant ot the Henry Holoomb-Allen he and Foy got up, aud with nothit-g oa but their •Litisdrove a cat downetaiis aad pat it out ot doors.

Hi picked up two shells at the Crouch bouse, but did not kuow what oaLber they were until some one told him, end in fact did not know what caliber meant or much about pistols. He had an old pistol about Holoomb's that he oalied bis, and thcujht it was a 82. He went from the Crouch house about noon tj change hie clothes, as the old suu he had was not presentable. He never knew of any bloody oloihes being behind the onset. He had a short taik on ge oral topics with Harrison Suow in October, 1883, but denud nuking any ot the staieme&U abaut the dutereut m«mbers of tne jamiiy and the ill-feeling among them that Snow swore Judd made. There was no ill-feeling in the family, tbough the friendship of himself and Byron to Henry White was not as stroog as between eome brothers in-law. Judd and his sister were always on the beat of terms. He coal! not rem«mb*r just what he did at the Crouch houee tne day alter/the murder, but was around the place "pronuscnouwly." He did not know that Polley was at the house till told so by George Hutchine. Ho nad no suspioion as to wno did the murder.

Tnere were three men on the road beiore the buggy drove away. Witness made a statement to a "Mr. Hayes;" did not know who Hayes was. Deteotive Harris was put on and refused to answer who Hayes really was. The oourt ordered witness to answer. He s&id: Hayes was "Wa. H. Sprinrfield," a Pinkertbn detective who had been working in the oase inoog., and boarding at the Hard house among defendants, wltuasess and attorneys. Mrs. Sarah Smith. Louadsberry's mother wae present wnen Supervisor MoKtin had the conversation with hu eon. Fred stated that the barn doors couldn't rattle. A. E.

Hewlett recalled—Laundaberry stated to witness that Holoomb saw no new rubber boots at the time of the murder, but several days after. ihe defence recalled Deteotive Harris— Witness didn't know where "Springfield" wae now; he worked secretly in the oase. He reported that Mrs. Elmer Hatch weat to Jud's room and the boys to Baker's; witness never offered Loundeberry a reward to swear as diroond; told him to tell the truth and he oould get tie $4,000 reward. Tne people called Deteotive Harris. He had advised Mrs. Dunham to keep the Olney story still. The proseoution here rested and the defense called O. C. YanOuren. Ha had been to Holoomb's to-day and couldn't see either barn from either window of Dan's house. Andrew J. Gould had been there to-day and looked out of the windows; oouldn't tee the barns.

She was a stern woman, who liked but few people, and had a horror of children, dogs and sentiment. Tbe village boys, with a keen perception of her unsympathetio nature, called her "Old Ironsides."' She was proud of her birth and of the substantial property that had fallen to her at the death of her father, old Judge Roxbury. She was a member of tbe Preabyteriaa church, and paid a high rental for the Roxbury pew, but with that considered that her pecuniary obligations to the cause were at an end. As a'general thing, she had not allowed convictions on the subject of giving to trouble her, but somehow, ever since Sunday, when the pastor stated the work of the fresh air fund and made a fervent appeal for these "little ones that suffer," she had been subjected to numerous vague but uncomfortable sensations. .

Speaking of the Nile suggests Africa, and recalls the fact that the commexcial nations of the world are organizing to open up the interior of the Dark Continent to trade- There is a population of nearly 50,000,000, who have so far been shut off from the commerce of the world. The inhabitant* of Congo Land are far superior in every way to the Negroes of both the east and west coast to Africa. They are more industrious and in a higher scale of semi-civilization. Central Africa now produces many articles cf prime necessity to the rest 'of the world, and will in time consume vast quantities of goods in the way of clothing and ornaments, as well as some luxuries. There i3 a strife between the different nations as to which shall profit by this trade; but of course the United States is out of the race, as Europe can undersell us. and we have no ships of our own. Naturally, Great Britain would profit most by the opening of the Congo country; but France is first in this field, and Germany i d o a ^ as she said stood .unbonnet. ^ u r o f d i 8 8 ? „ t JrTohmeorfee Twmasl ea woman on the other s>d« •om the litl" of the fence faded Brussels carpet. verbena bed invaded by eager young Angers.

After the rich crimson syrup had J been poured into the row of shining tumblers oh the~taT>le, she returned to her chintz-covered rocker, and took up the Bible to read her daily chapter. Opening it at random, her eyes fell upon these words: " • "Then shall He answer them, saying: 'Inasmuch as ye did it net unto one of the least of these—" Miss "Roxbury read no further on that page, but hurriedly turned hack to Chronicles, which she felt was perfectly safe ground-. But, mingled with the J long genealogical tables, she saw other words between tbe lines, so that the Israelitish record read thus- — "The son of Elkanah, the son of Joi 1, the &on of Azariah. ,('Ye did it not.') "The son of Tahath, tho son of Asair, the son of Ebiasapb. the eon of Koran. v ( « Y e d i d i t n o t ' ) " finally, tbe whole page seemed to resolve itself into these tour monosyllables.

H. P*rry Brewster, late titate Commissioner of Insurance of Texas, were buried at sea on the 1st inst, in accordance with the dying request of the deceased. Col. Brewster served in the San Jacinto, was first Adjutant-General of Texas and seived as chief of staff under Gen. Albert Sydney Johnston in the late war. Deceased passed his life on land]* but wae strongly infatuated with a desire to be buried at sea. He first made known his peculiar desires in this respect to his bosom friends, Gen JJohn M. Claiborne, and Coi. Jack while lying together under a tree just before the opening engagement of the battle of Shiloh. Afterward, during the progress of the war, he frequently repeated the reqnta* to several army friends. He, said be desired to be buried in sixty fathoms of water at high meridian. His theory was that at that particular depth the pressuro of the water was of just sufficient density to keep the human body quietly upon the bottom. Prior to his death in the city of An*tinr Sunday December 28, Judge Brewster repeated to his daughter his last wishes in regard to the disposition of his bodv, Miss Brewster communicated with Gen- Claiborne and other friends of this city and it was determined to carrv out the last request of the father and friend. THE BURIAL. Gov. Ireland placed the little state steamer Hygeia a t the disposal of Miss Brewster for the purpose of carrying the body to sea. At 10 a m . the remains under military escort wore placed aboard the Hygeia and the last solemn journey to the sea began. The locality selected for burial was the place where nine years ago the steamship Waco was burned with great less of life. Many old friends of deceased accompanied the remains. Miss Brewster, yielding t o the entreaties-of friends, partod forever from the remains of her honored father at the point of embarkation. Tjhe sea was very rough. The little steamer | braved the waves under the hand of an experienced pilot Several tugs and pilot boats accompanied the funeral boat. The shipping In the harbor flew flags at half mast. At exactly 12- o'clock, being well out to sea," Claiborne briefly recited a history of the life of his friend and gently consigned the casket/.to the water; and it instantly sank beneath the waters of the angry gulf.

In May, Berber was captured and 3,500 of the population and garrison were massacred.

One of the Michigan regiments in the Army of the Potomac was brigaded with a Pennsylvania regiment into which their chaplain had infused considerable religious feeling. Several had been baptized; this feeling prevailed to some extent in other regiments of the brigade, but had not taken effect in tbe Michigan regiment. The c haplain referred to, having the welfare of the Michigan regiment at heart, conceited the idea of calling on the colonel, a soldier from his youth and every inah a man. gruff, but brave; not sudden and quick in quarrel, nor full of strange oaths, but bearded like the Pard; gaining reputation even at the cannon's mouth. Consequently the calling at members of other regiments of the brigade had recently experienced religion, and in bis own regiment he had baptised fifteen the previous day; remarking, also, thai he was~ very desirous of a like result in the Michigan regknent; but, unloss the coionel made some effort in that directioa, tbe rogi-. ment would be behind in the matter. The colonel, a littled nettled ac what he called over-zeal of the chaplain, and especially at the^ldea of h»7ing his regiment suspected even of bting slow or behind in any respect, started to his feet, called tho sergeant major, and hurriedly said: "Give my compliments to the adjutant and direct him to detail immediately with orders to report to the chaplain here, twenty mep for bap- 1km; my regiment shall not be beat in any ^tay by any regiment in the brigade." The chaplain gave him one serious look and left quick. • • • « • • * • « • ! • e * « » * « • « • • • • • • * « - a t • " * • 4 »-* • i • • • • • • * • • • • « • • * • ! i a s « « * « » s » . • « • • • • « • « • 1 ! • • * • • < Barley 1 15 Rye per 1 0 0 . . . g £0 Buckwheat & 100 2 5 Corn meal, per 100 18 50 Clover Seed, « bu 4 15 Timothy Seeo?« bu 1 5 5 Apples per bbl 1 75 Apples $ bu 50 Butter, V lb 16 Cheese 13 Hops 2C Eggs ...

A sight of such a morsel was too much for the duck. He made a headlong plunge, inserting his bill between tne oyster's open shell. Like a flash, and with the power of a vise, the shell closed on the duck's beak. Then came the struggle for life. The tjjpter, whioh was quite a large one, was dragged fron its bed, with three JaValler ones clinging to it, the cluster ^ ng heavy enough to keep the duck's bd under water, In this way the duck a4K>wned. Its buoyancy jraa sufficient to float with the oysters, and thus drifted near the dock, where it was captured. When taken out of the water the animal heat had not left the duck.

Dr. Koch says that cholera has but little chance among those who keep the digestive organs and the liver, skin and kidneys (the sewers of the body) in healthful operation. Warner's SAFE Remedies are the best scientific Curatives and Preventives, and we cannot too much emphasize the importance of using them now, as a,safeguard against any future_s£ourge Much of the common ailments are caused,, not primarily by bad blood, but by IMPAIRED LIVER AND KIDNEYS. This results in blood corruption and injury to the entire system. Remove this impaired'.action, and most ordinary ailments will disappear. Otherpractitioners have held that extremo liver and kidney disorders are incurable. Wo, however, by the severest tests, have unanswerably proved -no contrary.

GETTVS, Insurance agent, ChilHcothe, Ohio, in i879was attacked with vertigo, which for two years and a half periodically affected him. He was a chronic sufferer from dyspepsia. He had the best medical attendance without success. In 1883 he was cured by Warner's SAFE Cure, and writing Dec. 5th, 1884, from East Liverpool, Ohio, he said "I have never had the least trouble since I used Warner's SAFE Cure, whioh benefited me permanently." R. H. McMICHAEL, of Emporia, Kans.. in x88o, while living at South Bend, Ind., had inflammation of the bowels and a hard lump formed on his right Side covering half the abdomen. Forty doctors examined him, five treated him but gave him no hope of cure. He lost sixty-five pounds of flesh. June 1st, 1884, he began using Warner's S A F E Cure, 23 bottles of which fully restored his health. July 15th, 1884, he wrote, " My cure is permanent.

CARTLEDGE, Pastor. to grind, viz: to dimini>h their taxes tit the expense of others, with respect to the Trustees elected in a "certain interest" we think they-have performed their sworn duties equally ai well as those Trustees who hold contrary places, The clause in our charter concerning bridges is not so very advantageous. It has to be paid in our township taxes, we know that those who signed the petition to disincorporate were fully cognizant of the facts alluded to in this communication. We would on.lv be too glad tos-havo our village properly located and incorporated, it it be done in a tair and •equitable manner, and we think the proper thing to do ntjw would be to convene a meeting of citizens with this object in view. We would be rejoiced if interests wouM'be started to benefit the village; but '"Taxpayer.'1 as well as others, must not holdtheir properties sen-high' as to preclude capitalists from making investments. As regards the money in the treasury, let. the President."of the village cajl a meeting of citizens and determine whaliaJLoJb.e done. When our Representative is HCquainte^ d with the facts of the case he ^wfH-notb» placed in such a humiliate irig Dosition as "Taxpayer" intimates. On the contrary, he will be equally as glad to assist lis in having our incorporation act amended to meet the wishes of his constituents. ANOTHERTAXPAYER. OUR VILLAGE. Mp. EDITOR: \Vill you please allow me space in your paper to answer "Taxpayer ?." We think with your correspondent, that something important will happen to our«.village. The greater part of the taxpayers have signed a petition to disincorporate. Why this petition was so numerously signed was »6t on account of mismanagement Of the funds intrusted to the care of the Trustees. Your correspondent states that the village is free from debt, there being $450 in the treasury.. Allow me to state why this plethoric state exists. In ^he first place the Street Com mis* sioner would not aljow us to work out pur tax; and secondly, the exorbitant assessment of last year, when no actual necessity existed to raise suph an amount. Further, we have received no benefit from being incorporated. It is true, the Trustees ha/e furnished us with a lock-up entirely inadequate to hold a determined inmate, located iu a part o t the village near a former slaughterhouse,' where ordinary luortlls^uldSot__jlace_a hog ""As regards the^pound, the law Tlie Verdict"- Of, the people is th#t the place to buy goods cheap is at th * * * 9 9 ri -3i - * & * - • - farrir.gton, Dak., Jan. 2d, '85, EDITOR DISTATCJI : When mercury seeks the bottom of the thermometer, goes down into the hole and pulls the hole in after it as it did here this morning it is a consolation to know that we are not utone in the enjoyment of the pleasures fhat such a stuteliTTemperature invariably brings.

Arl were pitifully cheap in texture, but dear in patient toil and loving sacrifice. Dot was going to the country for two long/ blissful weeks, and the mother could/ cover the expense of the meagre outfit/by some extra deprivation during the child's absence. She turned toward the pallet. Dot's violet eyes opened. Her golden curls were tangled'by/the tossing of the little head on the piljraw. Her thin, pinched features wen/ flushed with feverish excitement. . "Mamma/is it morning?"'* "No, darling." The woman blew out the light and threw ho/self on tho pallet. Tiny fingers crept eagerly into her palm. "Manama, tell me some more about it," pleaded Dot. >arhng, it is years and years since matiima saw the" country, bat it was just as I have told you Wide, clean streets, with big trees and blue sky and --^evely fleworsr^ / "Oh, oh!" murmured Dot.

Don't talk any more tonight." The sky was already White with the dawn. The mother did not sleep. As the light of another day of misery crept into tho room, she raised herself on one elbow and looked long at her child, restraining an impulse to snatch it to her heart, then softly rose, and after bathing her fice and hands and kneeling in prayer for endurance, took to her work and sat down by the narrow window. A few hours later she stood amid the bustle of the Grand Central Depot with Dot clinging to her dress. A crowd of wondering, expectant children were being marshalled into line to take their place on the eastward bound train. "Conio" said tho kind gentleman, in up amid the, other conveyance!, with Miss Eeliance on a back seat in a state of mind in which newly fledged philanthropy struggled with a terror oi ragamuffins. She had come to the conclusion that her visit to the parsonage had been made during an attack erf mental aberration; but the word of 'a ftoxbury was as immovable as the historic granite on which Jephaniah Roxbury stepped from the Mayflower in 1620, and the last representative of the race would not <falter now, although seized with dire "apprehension whenever her eyes rested on the verbena bed. It wa* with a grim determination to brave the worst that she awaited the train that afternoon, but when the locomotive appeared on the bridge below the village, the thought of the dreadful boy who was coming to invade her peaceful domain nearly overcame her/and her impulse was to order the hired man to drive home as quickly as possible. She could appreciate the emotions of a Roman dame at the approach of the Vandals. As the train stopped at the station the people crowded forward to welcome their guests. Miss' Roxbury peered anxiously from the rockaway. It was not a very appalling sight. A groop of pale little children, tired, duaty and bewildered. Many eyes overflowed as tho train moved on and left these wist* ful faces pinched* by want and misfortune, ID tho midst of the kindly villagers. " Here Miss Roxbury is for you," said Mr. Alder. MissRoxbury had not observod his approach in the crowd, and gave a start of surprise as he stood before her. As she looked there was a curious sensation under the left side of her crape shawl/ and her cold gray eyes grew misty. The " dreadful boy " bad changed into- a tiny girl of six years, as-frail as a snowdrop* whoso course attire could not mar the loveliness of her eyes and hair of tangled sunbeams. The little ^ereature stretched out her arms to Mws forward and tooK her into the rockaway, the ancient springs of which creaked with astonishment. " W h a t is your n a m e ? " said Miss Roxbury, feeling strangely awkward, as thev drove along. " Dot," said the child. "You hasn't kissed me yet, has you?1' MissRoxbury bent and kissed the child. The Tockaway creaked louder than before. The touch of the child's mouth thrilled the nerves of the woman with a sensation inexpressibly delightful. Miss Roxbury had imagined her life to be a happy one. She BOW discovered that she had mistaken selfish isolation for happiness. She was beginning to be happy for the first time in fifty years Dot was too tired to be very talkative, but she leaned against Miss Roxbury with a look of quiet wonder and content in her eyes. " If I going to stay here? " she asked as the rockaway stopped at tho Roxbury gate, and she surveyed the old stone nouse with the woodbine clambering over its gray walls. "les, child." Dot's face grew luminous. A bath, a bountiful supper of bread and milk; and a walk in the garden kept her joyful until twilight, but with bedtime came the longing for her mother. " I wants my mamma—my ewn mamma," she said. Then Miss Roxbury gave vent to the instinet that can never be. utterly destroyed in a woman. Taking the child in her lap aha caraased tha white faco and sunny curls in a restful, soothing way, and talked so cheerfullly that the 9nder a reined abbey wall, Whoae fallen stones, with moaa o'ergrown, About the smooth freah turf were avow, And piled around the roots, and tall, Green-tried trunks, and branching anna Of beeches, sheltering from the storms, Within it* empty, rooflsss halL There, in a broken,sill, I spied A little blossom, purple-eyed. took it thence, and carried far The plant into a greenhouse, where 1 tended it with blojsonisjrjare, Vntll It brightened, like a star Delivered from a passing elond, That bides it 'neath a silver shroud, Yet fails its loveliness to mar; Until it ceases to be a wild And common thing—and then I smiled.

Condensed from Christian Register, A Swedish colony had beeir founded in an almost unbroken wilderness' of Northern Maine, and in memory of the dear fatherland named New Sweden. Among the first to cast in his fortunes with this little colony was Carl Olsson, accompanied by his wife and four children. The log houses of Swedish colonists had been built near together, both for greater security and for companionship; and one bright, midsummer morning Olsson stoodwaiting before the door of his home for the noon- day lunch he was to carry with him to his day's work of felling trees, two miles away. Within the single room this humble home afforded was Christine, a girl twelve years of age, removing from the table the remains of the frugal breakfast. "Christine," called her father, "if the mother is willing, you may come with me to the 'chopping' to-day. The hours won't seem so long when there's a little lass flitting about. ' Christine looked up eagerly at her mother. "Oh,- can't I go? Fi ,her wants me, and I shall be happy in the woods all day." "Yes. you may go," said the mother, adding, as she spoke, a thin rye cake to I the luncheon;;" bnt don'tgetlost in the * woods," Christine laughed at her mother's needless fears, and hasteneiLto ov< char<?e;of Dot. Dot kissed her mother "good-by," and laughed even while the tears ran down her face, as she entered the ranks of tho odd procession.' , "Oh, sir," said the mother as she turned away, "take good care of my" baby\ I've nothing elso in the world." • * % > * * * * * * There was an unusual stir in tno village of Lynford. The railway station was thronged with people and surrounded by vehicles awaiting tho afternoon Train7~ ~ ~ ~~ r ~'~ Rev Joseph Alder and the ministers of sister churches conversed together on the platform. \ "A glorious charity!" said the Baptist minister, raising "his hat to wipe tho perspiration from his Vow. • " I expect these poor children will be a great blessing to pur people," said the Methodist minister, ''in broadening the -sympathies and warming the hearts ot some who have been oblivious to all interests save their own." "Yes," said Rev. Mr. Alder, "I have a practical illustration of that, not a stone's throw from where-1 am standing." '•The "practical illustration" shadows fell from the violet eyes, and Dot, nestling close, said,— .*• I love you." Miss Roxbury had no.t only begun to be happy; she had begun to live. With the ooming of this sweet child Heaven was changing the dull prose of her existence into celestial rythm. Her cold loveless nature in the presence of this tiny girl was already becoming Christlike in its tender ministry. Dot offered her evening prayer and was put in Miss Roxbury's own stately bed. " Good-night, dear," said Miss Roxbury, with a kiss. "Good-night," said Dot, burying her herface in the great bunch of lovely white roses she had brought to bed with her. • 1 feel z.f Vd died and gone to Heaven." Miss Roxbury passed a wakeful night bnt nofe-a^restless- one,•- Her— mind was filled with plans, and then it was such a pleasure to lie and listen to the soft breathing at her sftie, and occasionally to touch "the little hand on the counterpane, still hold'ng the treasured roses. XhjBjneTt day Dot, ran nearly wild with delight. She revelled" among the daisies in the deep, soft grass, and it was pitiful to see how small an object could charm her hungry mind. God's commonest gifts were unknown to her in their bounty and purity. Sunshine, sweet air, flowers and bird songs were chief. As her father struck off into a nar- Jirow path down over a hill, Christine was obliged to drop behind; and she followed after the broad footprints of his wooden shoe in the soft leaf-mold, her father, who had already started on is way. A fair type of the Swedish immigrant was the father, with his broad shoulders, ruddy complexion, olue eyes, and light hair; and a quaint figure was the child whetkept pace with him alone the rough roaclXy In' stature, she was small for her years; but the fashioning of her dress, spun and woven by her mother with true house-wifely skill, gave her the appearance of a little old woman-,-as it hung in heavy, straight folds below the tops of the strong, coarse shoes. Over' ber head was tied a dingy cotton handkerchief, which afforded no protection from sun and wind; ar.d the face beneath, never pretty, was now sunburned and freckled. But the features wereregulrr, the teeth white and even, the blue eyes clear and truthful, and the flaxen hair long and fine; f©> the two smooth braids Sung far below thfl fluttering comar of tha handker- "Don't go out of sight," said her father; and promising that she would not, she strolled along the edge of the woods, lost in delight with everything around her. In happy unconsciousness of impending danger, she spent the hours of the long summer forenoon, until her father called, "Christine! Christine!" and, gathering up her woodland treasures,, she approached to within easy speaking distance. "What do you want, papa?" she answered. "It is nearly noon; and, when I finish 'his tree, we'll have dinner. Take the pail and go down that path until yon come to a spring. Fjli the pail with water, and hurry back." Following the direction indicated by her father, Christine took the pail, and was soon lost to sight in the narrow, sinuous path. Carl Olsson resumed his labor, and when tho tree at length lay across its fallen fellows, stood watching to obtain a glimpse of Christine's coming. "What can keep Christine so long?" he said aloud. "It is not ike the child to loiter s o ' The spring was some uarter of a mile distant, but the path was direct, and there was, no occasion for any straying from it or this unusual dflay; and after waiting several minutes longer, with a half impatient frown, her father started after her. Not meeting her at a turn in the path as he fully expected, he quickened his step; and when he neared the spring and still saw no sign's of her coming, an anxious fear aroused him, and he shouted: "Christine! Christine!" But no answering voice responded. With rapid strides he reached the spring, and found that she was not there. He saw her footprints in the moist earth around the water, but could trace nomsrks of a return. Thoroughly alarmed, he began to search the woods in every direction, ealHng in frantic tones his daughter's name. .-**0..God, care for and protect my .child!" he cried in his helpless agony, as, with such a feeling of desolation and sorrow as comes to those who turn from the grave of a beloved one, he left the forest, knowing that his child, if she had not been already devoured by some wild beast, was suffering and helpless in its dark depths. How weary seemed 'the "homeward way, as he thought of the sorrowful news he was carrying to the watchiDg other. 'Ah, there comes Carl," she said, as she saw her husband appearing in the distance. "How tired" he is, for his step is so slow! But I do not see Christine. The poor child has grown weary and fallen behind." ingrnow sinking dr/trn despairing became iha ooold nilttupr make bint hear nor l a d MOL One by one the stars came twinkling' out.

To Christine's distorted vision came every fancy. Each dark shadow was a hidden beast about to spring upon her, and gleaming eyes lurked in every bush. Did she raally have a father and mother who loved her, or was she a child of the woods always to go on and on in this terrible way? With snob wild fancies Christine continued her hopeless wanderings through the long hours of that dreadful night, occasionally breaking the deep solitude of the forest by the heart-broken cry, "Papa, papa, where are yon?" • * • • * A- ^t*r.-S As Carl Olsson drew near, something in his troubled face and desponding air caused the shadow of a great fear to fall upon the mother's heart. "What has happened, where is ChristineP" she called out sharply. In broken, haJf-ohoked words, he told the story. She had at noon gone to the spring for water; she did not come back and he went to look for her; she was gone—lost in the woods—and he knew not where to find her. "Oh Christine, my child, my child! O, why did I let hefgoP" was the agonized cry that came from the mother's pallid lips. "God rules," was the almost stern and reverent reply at Carl Olsson. "But our neighbors and friends must be told, and we will search for her in the morning." " " king a cup—of the strong coffee—the lunch had gone untasted— Carl Olsson set "forth to arouse the colony. Messengers were sent quickly in every direction and the news spread rapidly from cabin to eabin. "Christine Olsson is lost in the woods! Search must be made for her in the morning. ng and weary had been the night to the weeping mother, for sorrow is always sharper and the burdens heavier during these sleepless hours; but hope revived when, with the first gray dawn of the morning, the colonists gatheredby twos and threes, bringing guns and dogs, ready for a search after the lost child. There were . middle-aged men, heavy and stolid in features, with tarnished kBobs of silver in their ears, and wearing immense wooden shoes, long waistcoats, and leather breeches. There were young men and boys full of excitement, and each anxious to be the first to discover the lost girl. It was decided to follow Olsson to the clearing, form into line, and at a given signal advance into the woods, each man keeping in sight of his neighbor, so as to cover all space, and when .the child was found, fire a gun twice in rapid succession. — The only one of the boys who carried a gun was Peter Swenson, who walked {very erect anoVexdaimed hoastingiy,— "If I see a bear, I shall shoot him square between the two eyes." And all the boys looked on admiringly but Nils Paterson, who whistled to his large yellow-and white-spotted dog, and said quite as boastfally: " I wouldn't give my dog for all the guns in the crowd. He isn't afraid of the biggest bear you ever saw," which wasn't so much of a boast after all, as none of the boys had ever seen a tame bear, much less a wild one. On reaching the clearing, a line was formed along the ecge of the woods; and at a given signal, all advanced together, beating the bushes, firing guns, and hallooing, and the search was kept up in this manner until the noonday, when a pause was made. All of Carl Olsson's bright hopes of the morning were deserting him. "Christine couldn't have wandered so tar," he said. "My poor child has been devoured by some wild beast." And he cast himself upon the ground., and buried his face iu his hands. But hark! Did his ears deceive tie*?— That surely was two reports following each other! Wildly, he sprang to his feet and rushed in the direction of the alarm, and the shout "Christine isfound! Christine is* found]" ran ali along the line. Nils leterson greeted them, exclaimingexcii. dly, "''Twas'nty ' dog who found her!"

T H E invitation to Cleveland's inauguration reception are to be elaborately engraved by the Bureau of Printing and Engraving at Washington. No work of this kind has ever been permitted before in the Buroau. ^T-he invitations to Garfield's reception were engraved by the Homer Leo Bank Note Company, of New York. The Washington committee arranged with a firm in that city, alter the ceremonies of inauguration were over, to oiler copies of the invitations for general sale over the country. A full set of tickets and programmes was sold at $1. The committee made enough profit from this sale to pay for the entire printing. By a curious coincidence the plates from which the invitations were printed were destroyed by fire on the day that Garfield died—New York Tribune. old custom of preaching what is called an "election sermon" to be abolished. Since 1684, when John Cotton preached a political sermon before the incoming legislature, it \& not recorded that the custom has been abandoned more than three times, viz., 1752 and 1764, when smallpox was prevalent in Boston, and this year, when the custom is finally abandoned. In 1888 the choice fell upon the Rev. Dr. Cr ut illness prevented, and General Butler selected the Rev. Dr. Miner, the ardent prohibitionist, whose remarks were not regarded favorably, by the law makers of the state, and last session an act was passed abolishing the custom altogether. SPEAKING of (Jen. Grant's refusal to allow his friends to raise a fund to pay off the mortgage upon his personal effects, the New York Mail and Express says: ' ' T h e man whose unfaltering persistence, matchless military skill \ lion of American citizens in Federal uniforms the one supremo naed Of victorious leadership, and who many Kitties in a single day's worked saved to the North uncounted millions of treasure from imminent risk—not to- mention infinitely more precious possessions "—"will not allow private-liberality to be urged in his behalf. It was impossible for Grant to say what he felt obliged to say in this note without bringing to a crisis the painful situation in which he has silentlv suffered these long months, during.which time the sympathies of the neople, unfaltering and grateful at near!;, have had the guidance of no definite idea as to wbat ueeded to b** doHe, what could bo done, or what should be d o n e . " T h e -Mail ^andExpress then asks. " What shall bow_ba done?" and continues as follows: "What but the" one straightforward, legitimate, adequate method becoming the government of the United States, itself the proudest monument of Grant's achievement. The title and rank created for him as a recognition of his services should be restored to him by common "consent- To this point events that wo can not remember without pain and soiue self-reproach have brought us. Let Grant's last -lays be his best days, and be prolonged" by the action of the nation he did so much to save." Differs F r o m 1876. The way the returns of the electoral votes of the Ftates, a? they are delivered to Acting-Vice PresidenV-Edmunds, _j_aro held preparatory to the final declaration of the two houses of congress, djffer^.imni...tlial of .1876 as widely as the circumstances of, that year differ from those of the present. Now they are placed in the safe_stith no extraordinary precautions, for there is no necessity for them. The returns of 1876, as'they were delivered to Acting Vice-President Ferry, were pat under extra locks and guards, day and night. During the period of suspense, down to the action of the electoral commission the greatest vigilance was observed. Threats from different quarters, as well as the excited state of the country, led to extraordinary precautions— Qne hundred extra policeman were sworn IN his brief term ia the governor's chair, General Butler directly and indiabout some radical changes in pub lie affairs in the commonwealth of Massachusetts. It was on his account that Harvard college abandoned the time honored custom of conferring LL. D. on each new governor of the state, and indirectly General Butler caused the in and placed oo guard night and day. The number was occasionally increased. This was done once in consequence of reports of plans'maturing in Baltimore to make a descent on the capitol to seize the returns. They .were in a room at the senate end of the capitol. At all hours that room was closely guarded. Unknown to anyone but the sergeantat- arms of the senate, at nights a man locked himself in that room and remained without a light and in silence til morning. One night he carelessly drew a match to light a cigar. Though the light was for an instant only, the light was seon and the alarm raised that, all was not right in that room. The door was shaken and a call made, but the man inside was silent. Preparations were made to force the door, and the sergeant-atarms was sent for. After hearing tne report of the officer of the night ho found a way to delay forcing operations till morning, when the guard wero relieved and the man inside came forth to confess his carelessness and receive a proper reprimand. The sudden Hsrht was a mystery to the guard as long as tboy were on duty. When the senate went to the house to meet in joint session TO count the votes, the box containing the returns was placed in the possession of a chosen man^ who was strongly flanked on the way by the guards, ' but with as little display as possible, while the joint meetings were being held. Guards were posted in the galleries, on the floor—especially in the vicinity of the speaker's desk, where the box was— throughout the capitol building, .in the approaches. This was kept up with military precision throughout the suspense, down to March 4. Meanwhile precautions on a larger TWO MESSAGES.

The Ann Arbor Courier indulges in a reminiscence concerning the first introduction of the ungodly fiddle into the choir of the Methodist Church at Ann Arbor in 1889 by Rev. Henry Colclaaer, the first Librarian of the University of Michigan, whose death recently occurred. I t says: He was first appointed to this station in 1831, while yet-but 19 years of age. In the fall of 1832 he_was stationed at Detroit, and the* next year sent back to Ann Arbor, where heromained until 1885, when he t was made Presiding Elder of the district. As such he continued until the fall of 1838, when he was stationed at Detroit again. Rev. Pitcher, in his "History of'ProtesUntism in Michigan/' gives the scene above | referred to as being in the first church ' erected in this city, at the dedicatory services in 1839, and as follows: The venerable Bishop_Soule was invited to attend the dedicatory services. As he was on his way to the church Rev. Henry Colclazer, Presiding Elder of the district, said to him; "Bishop! Perhaps I ought to say to you that the choir have taken great pains to prepare music for the occasion,* and will have one or two instruments to assist them." As quick as the Bishop heard that he whirled on his heel, saying: "Go on, brethren, and dedicate your church. I will have nothing to do with it." This is the same Bishop Soule who, a few years aftor, could affiliate with the South on the subject of slavery, and give his influence to a division of the church. Ho could strain at this gnat and swallow that came. J,Kev. Colclazer was a pol: gentleman," says Elder Davis, who rl members him well, • 'a beautiful speaker, and as a fine a preacher as was ever stationed here." For his first wife he married Miss Asenath True, of this city, who lived but a few years, and how lies buried in the old cemetery. At his death he owned thirty-seven acres of valuable land coming-out on Miller avenue, a portion of what was known in early days as the Gorham farm. r^ Faith in O n e ' a Self. Queen Elisaboth onoo said to a oour T h e W e a r i n g of t h e B e a r d . It is not only within the memory of the "oldest inhabitant," bntfef penofa of mature life, that a beard upon tne faoe was not only unfashionable, buisfit sign of mental weakness or "oranxi- *hesa." more noticable a great deal than a man ia nowaday* with long curly hair failing to his shouisiers. In the popular print*, auoh as thoee of American authors—Washington Irving, Cooper and others, pictures of the American Senate, with portraits of Clay, Webster, Calhoun, Cass, and their contemporaries— tbe abgeace of beards and mustaches is quite marked to the eyea of one accustomed to the hirsute fashions of to-day. The mustache was especially obnoxious; on a clergyman, an abomination. No minister could have had or kept a , fmlpit with such an ornament on his ace. On the faoe oi a layman it waa considered effeminate and dandifies?— < the type of what are now known Jpa "dudes." ''If you ever come into my, house wearing a mustache when you grow u p , " said a gentleman to Us nephew, then bearded by nature instead of art, " I will turn* you x»ut of doors." But by the time the boy waa able to produce a mustache the edict against them had been annulled and they had become quite common. A few Abolitionists and Spiritualists w,tre long beards, but the most aUowe'won the face was a neat tuft of w h ^ H i n just below the ears, like that which Vice- President Hendricks still exhibits. A curious relic of those dayevie-te-be found on a tombstone in 'Worcester county, Massachusetts, at the grave of a man who died in 1873, aged 84 years. On the obverse of his monument may be read the words; " Persecuted for wearing his beard." If the traditions about his life and experiences are trustworthy, no martyr ever suffered much more for his fondest religious beliefs than "Old Jew Palmer" did fer his beard. He was not an "old J e w " at all, buTwas called so fifty years ago on account of his long and venerable beard. He was looked upon as a monster and fiend, and his name was used to fri .hten children with. Everybody else was shaved clean, so he" was hooted at in the~streets, talked about in the country store, bullied %j his neighbors, wrestled with by theclergyman, in the vain hope that he would consent to follow Samson's example and " be as other men " by having his hair cut. Once four men arrived with shears, laid violent hands upon him for the purpose of removing the _ x>bnoxiuu3 appendage whether or no.' Hestruggled again sT^is fate, but was nearly overpowered, when he drew his jack-knife and freed himself by stabbing two of his_assailants in the legs. For refusing to pay the fine imposed he remained in jail over"a year, but was finallyJ«„leased. ^ , ___ His wearing a beard was proSably not his only, t?ven if his chief offense. He was a violent anti-slavery man, and believed in total abstinence, so that his beard was partly a pretext for his treatment. His refusal to furnish liquor to his men in the hay field also made him very unpopular. And a good deal of light is thrown upon the liquor question of that time by a mother's refusal on this account to lot her boy work for him. "He is too mean to allow the boy a little liquor," she said. The wearing of the beard itself in those days, although considered barbarous and outlandish, was generally the mode of a broad protest against the whole established order of things; whether 4t -was sl&voryy -lie.aor-olrinte^ - ing or male suffrage. The Jong hair and beards".were the reforms which their wearers advocated— what the red flag is to communism, or the "wearing of the green" to Irish independence. against tbe quartermaster's department In the statement that veterans entitled to state to parties purporting to bs their ssdgnees said parties, in many instances, being connect «d with the quartermaster's department:, whtn in fact they had never made such assignments.

Let Pain a n d Meteorology* It^L-generally ^110^11 t n a t depression of spirits and rheumatic pains have long been associated with a falling . baromV ter and storm-brewing conditions—unusually severe neuralgic attacks coinciding with unusually intense storm de-_ velopnient. To establish in his own case this relation of pain and weather, Captain Catlin of ttrerUnitett States army, made a regular and detailed record, in connection ,with the weather variations, of the variations of his ntAralgic pains. From the published a k count, Captain Catlin's foot was crushed by a shot in 1864, and it was necessary to amputate bis leg below the knee. He continued to experience sensations of pain, as if in tbo lost menabcr, these sensations being greater or less aocording to the atmnaphftrfa rii»tnrhaTir>fl Arranged ia months, March naturally the lead as a pain producer; then cam*, in order, January, November, December, May, February, April, August, /October, September, July and June.

Tne rigid enforcement of the rule excluding spirituous or fermented liquors from the fair grounds bore its legitimate fruit in thTperfoct order and regard to law which universally, prevailed, and it was a cause of gratification that no temptation to indulge in drinking through our instrumentality was anywhere apparent on the grounds.

Fairbank, the commisioner of Immigration, the history of the commission from its inception is given. Pamphlets have been issued in the English, German, Dutch, French ana Swedish isttgusgei and they have been revised to date. Their accuracy has been unquestioned. The aggregate number of pamphlets |4s«uedin all thsso-languagetla113,'" which nearly 62,500 have been circulated in the past two years and about 45,000 now remain on hand. Advertisements have also been circulated in nearly every metropolitan weekly paper. Circulars describing our hard and soft woods have been sent to eastern manufacturers, and other descriptions of our hemlook interests to several tanneries and leather bouses. The office hae taken two daily and 54 weekly newjBjpjpjmLaad. articles bave been clipped and pasted in classified scrap books. Applications for the pamphlets have bean reotived from every state in the Union, and irom Canada, Cuba, Brasil, Argentine Republic, Greit Britain, France, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Austria, the Netherlands, Saudwloh Islands, Australia and New Zealand. Most of the immigration has oome from the states of New York, Peonsylvania, Ohio, New England and Canada. In some cases in habitants of treeless prairies have oome bore to live where there are trees oaoe more. No effort has been made to secure pauper immigration. The Germans, among the foreigners, ponderafe, and most of them have brought in|oontidsrable wealth. The CommisBiouer recommends the printing of the pamphlets in the Scandinavian language*. Whue immigrants are continually ooming,immigraat* are also going. The Southern Stales are circulating their pamphlets in the East and Michigan is feeling tne effect of its rivalry, From statistics 1,250,000 of our citisens are of native Joirtlv-o^er 600^000 being born -in- Michigan.. -> Our foreign population only consulates 24.8 per cent, the Germans -preponderating.—1 he percentage of foreign immigration is as follows].

Our Northern lands are not unfit for cultivation, a? only 4,000,000 acres oan be classed as mineral »nd swamp lands and barren sand plains. The sales of tne state land offioe for tne two years beginning Ootober 1, 1882, and ending Sept. 30,^1884, were 3-iO.233.S6 acres.

The sales at the United States land offioe have been 366,517 acres, the greater portion lying in the Upper Peninsula. The railroad sales have been 272,227 acres. The total cost of the bureau has been $21,461 23 from January 1,1883, to Decernber 81 1885. Then remains a fund of $294 72 yet unexpended by theburean. — DETROIT I 1 B K B T 8 . Wheat, No. 1 white I 70 @ 85 ^Wheat, No. red —75-^—8& CLETEBLI CAUGHT! The Mlcb. 9Isut»e Pear of BcursTiarew THe gtory of an Kleetrteisunu At the dead of night, Mr. J. B* Anthony, a wholesale grocer of Troy» N. Y., was awakened by his burglar alarm annunciator, which told bim that hie house had been entered through the roof souttle. He hastily qresaeB, rings tor a policeman, hurriea to the upper story, and hears the burglar in the servant's room, threatening her with instant death if ahe made a loud noise. He was captured, ooutioted and sentenced to Sing Sing prison for ten years. So said Mr. C. U. Westfall, the electrician of Westfield, N. Y., to our reporter. "Do city residents generally use burglar alarms P" "Yes, all first-class houses are provided with them and I have never had any dissatisfaction from my customers, many of whom are the best known and wealthiest people of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and other large cities." "Do wealthy men have much fear oi burglars P" "As a rule wealthy men do not keep valuables in their houses^, and yet they are not sure that they shall escape burglarious attacks, and they don't feel secure without a first-class burglar alarm apparatus in their hou£e. Every door, window and scuttle is connected with the annunciator, and it is quite impossible to effect an entrance without the fact becoming at once known." "Don't electricians run considerable risk in handling wires." "Even the most careful of them sometimes get a shock. A few years o, whUe-L-was descending stairs l a Elmira, N. Y., with a wire ooil in my hand, I felt as if I had received the entire oharge from the battery. For over a half hour I suffered t i e keenest agony. I did not know but that I had been fatally injured. After completing my business circuit I returned to Boston and for eighteen months did not got ovor tho shook. 1 lost my appetite; all food tasted alike. I could not walk across the common without resting several times.'\. My head whirled audMreeled like a drunken man. I consulted the best physicians irr a good many lar^e cities, but none of them seemed to understand my case. About a year ago I was in Albany, and a physician tiiere stated that I would probably not live three months. "But to-day," said Mr. Westfall, and lie straightened " himself up with conscious pride, "so far as I know 1 am in perfect health. I woigh_ 170 pounds, eatwel^"Tre"ep_w¥Ilrie^rweIir" and am well. One of my old physicians gave me a thorough examination a few weeks ago, and told me that I was in perfect condition."' "You are a very fortunate man, sir," remarked the scribe, "to have escaped instant death after an electrical shock." "Oh, it was not electricity that prostrated -me. It w a s _ a ure mic cpnyulsion. For all my physicians told me 1 was a victim of a very serious kidney disorder. And when they and a dozen widely advertised medicines failed to benefit me, Warner's safe cure restored me to perfect health. That preparation is invaluable to every grade of society, for it is a priceless "blessing." "There is no need of death from handling electrical wires if the operators will exercise care.

"Why, Miss RoxbuTy," said Mr. Alder as he assisted her to the platform, "you are a veritable fairy godmother.

That afternoon Miss Roxbury and Dot, attended by Mr. Knox, wended their way through a dark alley in one of the squalid districts in New Yerk city, and climbed flight after flight of rickety stairs in a rear tenement. The heat, the filth.the scenes oi misery were indescribable. Miss Roxbury felt as if she were on the confines of a bottomless pit. Dot darted down a Jong passage and disappeared in a room beyond. The friends followed and found her clasped tightly inthearms-of a wan figure that lay on the coucb. The woman had fainted. "Mamma, mamma, look at me," pleaded Dot, beginning to cry.

After a day or two Miss Roxbury took the train down to Bradleyville to do some shopping; She was gom night, and all the way home she thought of the glad voioe that would welcome her, and her face grew. no radient with the new joy in her soul that when she ahghted.laden with parcels, at the Lynford station, old Deacon Bennet failed to recognize ber until sho had passed him. "Wall, I declare,*' he said, •'•Reliance looked as she-had diskivered a gold I mine.*' years of age, and had been very attrac tivo as a very young girl. There was a gleam of gold oi< her left hand. Her hair was sunny like Dot's and her features delicately shaped. The letter that Miss Roxbury had written lay crumpled and tear-stained on the piliow. While Miss Roxbury gazed the woman opened her eyes. They were beautiful eyes; but sad with want and struggle against despair. She tried to sit up and moaned,— "My baby—please give me my baby." Justthen Dot returned and carried the pitcher of water to her mother who drank long and eagerly; then holding out her arms to Dot, said feebly to Miss Roxbury,---- B"Oh, madam, will you take care of my little girl? I think I'm going to die." t-going to-die—not a bit of it," said Miss Roxbury, pouring out some wine into a teacup, "but I will take care of you both. There, drink this and you'll feel better right away. How long since vou've bad anything to eatP" "Day before jesterday" was the faint reply. "1 had to stop work four days ago." __ "Now. Mr. Knox," said MUs Box^ bury, slipping her purse into his hand, lived, but was thousands of miles away, with other children around her to claim her love aud attention. Did she hot remember a handsome, fine-looking gentleman, WAO always brought her candy and presents whenever he called, years and years before, when she was a very little girl, and whom she jiad knownonly as "Mr. ClarkP" That gentleman was her father, Daniel Clark of Louisiana, a man distinguished in American history^ & noted merchant, statesman, and orator. When she asked for '[ all the facts about her parents and her birth, her foster father told her the following story. There came to Louisiana in 1790, soon after the outbreak of the French revolution, an emigre nobleman, Jerome De Grange, who fled to this country to escape the guillotine, and who had lost his large. fortune in that great popular outburst. There was nothing left for him to do but go to work, and to work he went and established a cafe and confectionery on St. Anne street, opposite the Place d'Armes, in what was then the social and fashionable center of tfee little Creole city of New Orleans. Here he met a graceful, voluptuous little lady, Marie Julio Carriere, a Provenby criminal court, but before his gr&otei the. bishop ot Orleans and the Floridas. The unlucky De Grange was arrested and brought before this ecclesiastic court en the charge of immorality and bigamy—if there be bigamy to have three wives. Zulime, Barbara and Maria each testified against him, and told their sad stories, how this ugly, pock-marked, red-faced, little fellow had succeeded in winning all their hearts. So clearly was the confectioner's villiany laid bare that his grace, the bishop sentenced him at once to the ealabota. The days of the Spanish dominion in Louisiana were drawing rapidly to a close just then. In the excitement that followed the rapid transfer of that country from Spain to France and from France tojthe United States, a friend of De Grange's assisted him to escape from prison and chartered a vessel for him in which he fled" from Louisiana and his triumvirate woes. Zulime was not without comfort and consolation in her widowhood, for ner former admirer, Clark, redoubled his attentions to her and whispered dangerous counsel in her ear. She was absolved he told her from all bonds to De Grange, for their marriage, being bigamy on his part, vag in point of fact nonrarriage at all. She wiis ITTree woman to marry whosoever she cho3e— and would she not choose him. The temptation was certainly a strong one, for here was wealth, position, love, happiness, all before her but Zulime hesitated, for while the marriage of De Grange had been sufficiently proven to justify his iacarcenation, it was not so legally demonstrated as to justify a second marriage; on hor p a r t It would be the best, she saw, to secure further and legal evidence of De Grange's previous marriage, and to do this it was necessary to go to New York. Clark readily assented to this, especially as he himself was about to take a trip north to Phudnlpnia, on *tn important political mission. "Onthe"Toryit ay of"her arrival in" New York Zulime hurried to St. Peter's in which the marriage between De Grange and Barbara had taken place. She learned with sorrow, that all the records of the church had been burned just before her arrival. When bhe and Clark met again in Philadelphia ifter this failure, he renewed his suit so vigorously that she yielded to his arguments and consented to a secret marriage, not to be made public until they could secure some better evidence of De Grange's bigamy. The marriage-r oa^which- Mrs.. Gaines!._ c l a i m r Miss Roxbury reached home^nd soon. J *lu t 8 t s t ? ! L o u t ^ ^he nearest grocery 1 and order somet=rTrrhT8njg-wood some tea and sugar. I'll and poach a nice fresh egg for this poor soul and then we will see about getting her out of this place." The woman's face brightened, but she said: "I am giving you much trouble." "Trouble," said Miss Roxbury, "I'm all alone in the world, and I've a house with twonty-four rooms in it, and plenty to do with, and what I've been doing all these years I can't say I've been a crusty,—disagreeable o i i iossilr Mrs,- Winthrop, and when I come down here and find folks starving to death and crowded like cattle I wonder the good Lord*s had any mercy o n " m e r l o n 1 1 you woTry another mite. Here's the : fire stuff already." Miss Roxbury rolled up her sleeves, put an apron over her silk skirt, and had the "gold mine" in her arms After tea the parcels had to be opened. There were paper patterns, rolls of muslin, embroidery and blue flannel, a pair of child's slippers, dainty hose, bright ribbons and a large doll. "Oh, ob, oh!" was-all that Dot could say, but her tone expressed more than . tae_.most- extensive voiunae of phrianthrophy that ever was written. The village dressmaker was.installed in the house for a week. The Rocky Mountain patchwork was confined to the seclusion of the spare room elosetr and Miss Roxbury developed a taste in Mother Hubbard dresses that was truly marvellous, In the meantime she wrote a letter to Dot's naothe'-, to which Dot added a picture of the cat, which, although not absolutely true to nature, resembling in fact,, the plan of a house,'was agreat ' satisfaction to the young artist. There came no reply to this letter. Dot's cheeks were getting plump and ~rosyr and her i' ' "If it wasn't for my mamma," sho said " I wouldn't go back forever'n ever." When Mr- Knox, the gentleman in charge of the party, called to see that Dot wouH be ready to return at the appointed time, Miss Roxbury exclaimed, almost fiercely,— " I can't let her go. I need her. Why may 1 not keep her?" "I do not believe her mother would part with her," said Mr. Knox. Miss Roxbury was silent for a few moments, and looked out on the lawn where Dot was swinging in a hammock with tho doll and cat. "It will be a dull house without the ild," she said; "but I will bring her to the station." * * * * * * When the morning of Dot's departure came, Miss Roxbury arrayed herself in her second best block silk, put a few j article? in a satchel, filled a small them?""said Mrs.7Lane." vein St a mere child in years, but with the form figure and development of a full grown woman. The exiled nobleman saw, loved, and proposed, and, (iazzled^by his title and aristocratic origin, the little girl—bhe was not quite 13 at the time-— consented to become his wife. It was an ill-omened and ill-assorted marriage. De Grange was more than 20 years older than his child-wife, very usrly* taciturn, and unsociable^ while Julie, o*y as thoy nick-hamed her—for no Creole girl ever bears in later life her baptismal name—Zulime, was gay and lively, pleased with the attentions of gentlemen, devoted to balls, masked or otherwise, and loved, in fine, every species of fun, gaiety and enjoyment. The marriage, howoyer. proved a very took place in a strange house in a back street in a retired portion of Philadelphia. There was present an unknown Irish priest, who performed the ceremony; two unknown witnesses, friends of Clark, and Sophia Despah, Zulime's sister. Alas! Poor Zulime soon found that it was "out of the frying pan into tho fire." Clark, who had been the most devoted of lovers, proved cold and carelesa^as sc;on as be had trapped her into this secret marriage. He left soon after for France, and, although upon his return^he provided her and her siscale, with a dash of gipsy blooTTh "HerTter with a suburban villa hear New 6rwhilo Mr. Knox brought water to heat, she bathed , Mrs. Winthrop's face and hands and brushed out her lovely hair.

Mrs. Winthrop sat in an, easy chair before an open wiadow inhaling the fragrance of the blossoming honeysuckle that nodded to her through the casement. The morning sunlight fell across her bright hair and peaceful face. Dot hung over shoulder and threw daisies into her lap. Down by the garden fence stood Miss Roxbury, talking with her neighbor, Mrs. Lane. Mrs. Winthrop smiled from her window, and there came an answering smile from the depths orthe purple calico sun bonnet.

Nor even when in the course of time a child was born of this secret marriage, Myra Clark, afterward known as Myra Davis, did he evince any more love for the mother. The child was taken away from her immediately after birth and given out to nurse, * and its existence carefully concealed from all but his most intimate "friends: Soon after the bitrh of Myra, Clark went north to Washington as the first delegate to congress from Louisiana. He seemed to have become very ambitious just then, and stories _begaa to circulate in New Orleans that he was about to make a grand marriage and would lead to the alter Louise Caton, one of the three . Maryland sisters, •aid: she never] could prove, it, one friend only clinging to her. Dr. Gardette, a dentist of Philadelphia, aided in the search for proof of the marr;ager, but not one iota could they find, and Shen Gardette, moved by the tears of e young woman, twice widowed by marl's treachery and cruelty—she was only 26 and strikingly handsome—offered ner his protection, she fell into his arms and accepted and married him. From that time her life was free from domestic trouble. Dr. Gardette moved to France and there both he and Zulime: died. Almost at the same time Clark's e n - gagement with the aristocratic Miss Caton was broken oft, because her relatives insisted on a marriage settle' menl of $20,000. Miss Louise went to Europe and married a baronet and afterward a duke; and Clarke retained to New Orleans to settle up his aJTairs. His heart seemed to go ont to the little Myra, the only one left him. He had always contributed to her support and given Davis,with whom she lived ia the queer little Spanish settlement of Terreaux- Boeufs, a lar^e sum of money for her benefit. Fearing sudden death—for he was a frequent' duelist—he determined to make his will and right some joi-the-wrengs he had done by leaving the bulk of his fortune to his only chil4» Myra. This will was accordingly made —and his old friend, the Chevalier De la Croix, appointed the little girl's guardian,—and placed by him in a drawer of his secretary, and his colored ser^aat^ Lubion,. notified to convey it the moment he died to De la Croix. Whfln, flfaortlyj ^fter thia t.hA sudden death of Clark was announced, the friends who had been appointed his executors hastened to his bouse. They found it in possession of Chew and Reef his partners, who had already gone through his papers and discovered a will that made them executors of his estate, and which left nothing whatever to Myra. As tor the will that Clark had justexecuted, it wasnowhere JfltJ*B__ found; the drawer in which he had placed it was empty. A thorough search was instituted', but this missing will was never found. Lubin, Clark's valet, who had never left his side, testified that the only persons who had touched his master's papers hsd been Chew and Reef, winch naturally caused some suspicion that they had destroyed the will. Myra Clark was living in Philadelphia at the time, her foster-parents having removed there, and nobody seemed to trouble themselves—much about her or her interest*.- The willrthat made her z: Clark's heiress not being found, Chew and Reef proceeded to wind up the estate. It was discovered, to the surprise of the entire community, to be bankrupt. Clark had estimated it as worth $966,000 a short time before his death, but, after paying- his partners, Chew, Reef, and Coxe, the large sums owed them, there was a little left for Mrs. Mary Ciar^jthe mpther_of the deceased. • : ( ' • :'fl Xmong these patrons came a certain young irishman, D.aniol Clark, the wealthiest merchant, and perhaps the first mnn in tho entire colonv, in fortune and influence. At balls, at routs, and festivities of all kinds, and often /at the confectionery, pretty little Mme Zulime met this young cavalier. Carried away by his gallantry, his elegance, so much above that of the Creoles she saw about her.sto awoke one day to the awful fact' that she loved this young Iri3hman far better than she did her liege lord and husband. At the same time she was horrified by another discovery, that this husband of hers, Jerome De Grange was a villian of the deepest die, a scoundrel who had betrayed her innocence, a Blue daughters of Charles CArrolJ, of Carrollton, who became afterward duchess of Leeds, marchioness of Wellesley, and Lady Stafford. So well authenticated wore these stories that Zulime grew alarmed, especially as Clark still refused to publish thoir marriage on the plea of important,business engftgamrtntq, Fear- Such wa* substanti illy the story that Myra Clark, or Myra Davis, heard from her foster-fa.her.

This terrible disclosure was made to her by one of De GrangeVviotims, his first American wife, Barbara Jean belle d'Orsi, who had come to New Orleans in search of him. Almost at tbe same ing treachery, she went on to Washing ton to discover whether these stories were truo or not. Clark, who had heard false stories from New Orleans, received her in the coldest manner, reproaching her/ in the strongest language of which he was capable, and declared. that her conduct had been such during his absence as to render it utterly imposible for him ever to make public their marriage. ' Now thoroughly convinced that I Clark was about to cast her off, and was making use of this pretext for doing so_^ she was determined to collect evidence to prove her marriage and to establish the legitimacy of her little daughter.

Va., by the recent wonderful cure, through prayer, of Miss Annie uwens, has brought to light several other cures alleged to have been brought out nnder somewhat diflerent, but fully as wonderful circumstances. The story in brief is as follows: In August, 1879, a Catholic chapel at Knock, County Mayo, Ireland, was dedicated to the Blessed Virgin, and at the ceremony the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared on the altar and blessed the worshippers. Several of those present had j* been ill or cripples, and these suddenly ' found that their infirmities had left them. From that' time to this many pilgrims from all parts of Ireland, and even from England, have visited Knock and wonderful stories are related of cures wrought by simple praying>t t b e church altar.

Coxe was the Mephistopheles of this affair. He had frequent interviews with Zulime and persuaded her that bishop delivered an address to the congregation. On Jan. 1, 1880, Martin rhornton, a business man of this city, received from Father Cavanaugh a package of cement taken fronT the walls of the church.

The vast territory of the Soudan it peopled by hordes of Arabs of various tribes, whose number is computed to be between thirty and forty millions. • The Arab—and in this nomenclature, besides the natives of Arabia proper, all the inhabitants of the northern and hall of the eastern portion of Africa are to be comprehended—is a singular race Wild and ferocious, like the savage's ol the far west, the Arabs are endowed Witfc * keener intellect and a highly fceryous temperament, a characteristic which has impressed itself upon the Spanish nation by reason of contact. Unlike, however, the aborigines of lerica, who are stolid, content with and the gratification of their wants, the Ara^bs. are ever rest- And aggressive, and prey upon their •beings. Although very dark in ••inflexion, they are not negroes; their jhfir \» coarse but smooth. Their habitations are principally on thevbordera%ef the streams, and, in the Interior countries they sink wells, where practicable^ and cluster around them, forming villages andtowns, their houses consisting of mud walls and thatohed, •onical rooi«. j-Living4n- a state of nature, their frjiftts are but few, consequently they are not forced to e<ii»..rrexiir.tion to supply them. They live on the simplest diet. Their staple food is divrru millet, which they pulverize and make into bread. Very little animal food is us$d by them. Dates and camels1 milk conetitute the luxury indulged in by the well to do among them. Their agriculture is therefore con lined, to the raising of millet and a tew other farinaceous articles, such as heaps, backla, or lupens, etc., in the most] primitive Manner. TJn the matter of raimeax they are, ^Wlng'totheTTatnre ©rffie climate, in a state of almost complete ••nudity, only a ecarf being wound lightly around their loins. Their.other occupations consist in collecting ostrich feathers, tusks of elephants, senna, and gum-arabic; the latter is indigenous to the country, and <|s extracted from the acacia arabica, a email tree which forms vast forests in the hottest regions of Africa. All these sink, however, into insignificance compared with the profits in slaves, in celling which they are mainly engaged. Egypt and Arabia provide markets | b r t h e disposal j)£ their productions, as _ well as for the-procurement of their waMsTWrliclTconslsia of cOfleertobaccor arms and ammunition, cotton cloth and Icnicknacks. The former is reached.by the Nile, and.the latter by the way of Suakim, a Seaport on the Red Sea. As" the last is difficult of access, owing to the necessary land journey, the Nile is preferred. They live in a state of barbaric independence, under the control of petty chiefs called sheiks, who have assumed supremacy over their representative communities by virtue of their religious£ haracter and extra sanctity. The introduction of Mohammedanism among the children of the desert did not oontrftutff toward - their" moral—andeocial advancement. Indeed, wherever Mohammedanism made its appearance it has exercised i most pernicious influence over its votaries, more partieu — larly among^ the Arabs. It killed a traces of civilization among the ancient Egyptians, for which they were justly celebrated and to which the Greeks owed their progress. / But this religion suited Arab projelirities to a nicety; it was simple in'creed and ministered to their brutal pa/sions. Divine unity and belief in Mohummed <«& the true apostle of God wepc the only essential requirements. ItHencouraged Eolygamy and promised/seventy-two ouns in the life to conie^ It moreover jpreached aggression afnd aggrandizement, made it a virtue to war against ^unbelievers, and upheld the enslave1 .ment of captives. It not ouly legalized '•their wonted vocation, but opened a iregular market for the disposal oi 'their chattels* wherever Islamisni prevailed. The peculiar construction of society .among the Mohanrmedans rs such as to render slave service indispensable. lEvery household naturally -requires 4nmestic service, both for personal atigtndnnce and menial duties. But seclus i o n being one of the requirements of t h t Koran, Mohammedan women are t>rtcta4ed from entering into such service, because they woula thereby oorue, into contact with the rrraie- portion of & family, which, according to their relig: ous idea of propriety, is unlawf til? As to men who are not near relatives, they are strictly excluded from the harems, or the apartments of women. Hence Circassians are employed for personal attendance, and the blacks for meaial service. Slaves being a staple commodity • « s o n g the Mussulmans, Mohammedanjftjan greatly tended to stimulate the •roor of the Arabs of Soudan to extra •Mtttion, and the consequence has been that the negroes of Centra! Africa Have 'been the sufferers. Frequent incursions are made into their territories and hordes are captured, who. are either employed to till the ground for the_ benefit of their captors or sold int» tlavery, both men and women. v Sucn was the character and condition of Soudan prior to Mehemed Ali's conquest of Egypt, and it has not under* gone much change since.—N.

H? 1¾ 1¾ pi . ^- - The south infirmary of the Illinois eastern hospital tor the lowme at Kankakee, 111., burned MI the morulas of January 18- Th* fire originated in the furnace room and had secured a .strong headway before it wasidiscovered. The wood-work of the building being df southern pine, it burned very rapidly. The building wasoocupied by forty-five patient*, six attendant! and one night watchnan. Seventeen patients were burned todeath, the bodlee of 13 hating been iecoveiei in a few hours burned beyond recognition. All ef the patients were infirm and Ineurable. The bed-ridden ones were rescued first and those who were able to help themselves did not realise the danger and they were the one* who perished. The attendants lost all their personal effecta,!and many narrowly escaped with their Uvea, one of them having to tie the bed-elothee together to es cape. There were no facilities for putting out fire, the state > o t having made any appropriation. The building was a new one and oost about $76,000. It is a total wreck. The building was a two-story and brick with no wood about it except the floors and stairways. It was completed last August, and it was tued as an infirmary with iortyfive insane inmatee—twenty-three m the first floor, twenty-two on the second. Attendants Brown and Rote and wire were sleeping on the first floor. Attendant) Reid, Williams and fireman Labarge slept on the first floor. The building was heated by hotair furnaces. It was twelve degrees below sero when the watchman, named Cobb, discovered smoke issuing from the floor immediately above the furnaces. He awoke the attendants. The smoke at once became drawn through the hot-air flues and along the halls and. stairways to all parts of the building. The fire spread so rapidly that all efforts to save the building »n the absence of a fir* alarm to summon help and for want o'facilities to quench the flames were found to be In vain. Attendant W. A. Reed began dragging and carrying out patient* Many patients, clad in night clothing only, rushed from the bitter oold air back into the building. Reed, at the risk of bis own lite, struggled on until twenty-one of his twenty-three patients were rescued, when he became exhausted and was carried away. On the second floor attendants, Rose and wife, heard the alarm and escaped down the stairway just before It felt Attendant Brown, sleeping on the same* IToor, waar " awakened by the smoke and attempted to _ tavea patient in an adjoining com and failed, and sliding down by means of a sheet from his window, jumped to the ground. Superintendent R. 8! Dewey reached the. aoene and with ladders climbed to the second stcry windows, which he smashed and was able to rescue some patientt thereby. Almost all the patients refused to co-operate in the e oris made to save them and were only rescued by being dragged from the flames and loroibly prevented from return; ing. A matvelloua escape was that of an inmate who fell with the second floor, atruok the burning debris {above the mm ace and bounded through a window to the ground uninjured. The remains of the bodies, with one exception, did not aggregate tach-hut little more than a handfnl of charred aahca. The entire remains often of the victims were spread on the small table two feet square. The scenes on arrival of friends in search of lost ones were very heart lendering. Bopt. Dewey testified that he had asked the legislature two years ago for $2,500 to protect these detached wards from fire; that $1,000 was allowed, all of which was used in drains and hydrants; that the amount was insufficient to answer the purpose. He suggested that the floors above the hot-air furnace be obanged. it being snown in evidence that it was but four inches from the outside and ten inches horn the inside of the furnace to th* pine joisis. He gave two reasons for the great number of deaths; first, patient* wererajriolt all suffocated by amoke before they conll be xeached; and sec rid, the inability or unwillingness oi insane paticnta tj try to help themselves. consider the bill was refuted. After the affair between Gen. Sheiman and Jeff Davis had been discussed consideration wai resumed of the inter-state oommeroe bill.

The Prince of Wales, it appeals, entered the bay bound from London to Moose Faotory, Jamei bay, the most southern point of Hudson's bay. early in beptember, but owing to heavy pack ioe did not cake Moose Factory until the end of the month. She lost no time in getting her cargo aUard ana set sail again during the first week in October. She had a terrible passage across James bay to entrance of Hudson straits. Here ahe encountered a barrier ot tolid polar ice, whioh .extended as tar as the eye could, see, of immeaae thiokneas and standing out of the water in some place* as high aa the main jards. The vessel sailed aloof; the edge oi this ioe two days looking tor an outlet, but .without sue seas; thermometer registered ten below zero. From all appearances ahe would be soon troten in. -The captain gave orders to put the ship abcut, and tr ei to make for the outer roads ol Moose Faotory, again intending to winter there. After great difficulty Cnarlton island, twenty-five miles from Moose Factory, was reached when it was found impossible to make farther progress. A toat manned by the mate and lour bailors wa* sent aahc re to make arrangement* for supplies and clothing for a long stay in'ihe Arctic region. The voyage of the unfortunate men to the i »rnendag main iana. was terrible. Soon after they set - but a strong head wind sprang up and the thermometer^ fell rapidly. A blinding snowstorm came On and the boat was every moment in danger ef being cut in pieoea by the ioe, and fir three dajs they were doubtfal whetner they would ever see land again. Ou tue 4th, they sighted Moose river, all bartly frozen and in a starving condition. Next day one or the boats waa manned, provisioned and supplied with axes, sled*, clothing for wintering in the ship. Boat only made ten milts when sue got frozen iu and had to be cat out and drawn back over the lee. Four Indiana were nixt dispatched across ihe ica in search: ofthcveisel. They returned in five days with word that they bad Sighted Charlinn inland, hnl <"nld see no traces of the Prince or Wales, it ia surmised that she must have got jammed in a iioe and carried Eastward. Great anxiety is felt tor bur safety as well as for the crew who are not provided with, necessaries for wintering in tae ioe. A letter received by the office here says. "All we can do now is to wait until dogs andN sleds are supplied from Albany and Rupert's house, when an expedition will be organized and an attempt made to locate the ship and haul provisions and clothing to her. We trust to find her by January, bat she is not iu a pleasant position. Sno will now be short ot provisions and will have to remain in the ice till May or June," Railroad men and others who had experience in Hudson's bay region arespent by the government is useless and will only demons crate that the* difficulties to be contended with in navigating the Arctic sea render it totally unfit as an outlet to Europe, and that this last experience will give a quietus to the much-talked of Manitoba & Hudson's Bay railroad connecting with a line ot ocean steam* rs to Europe and thereby shortening^ the distance by nearly 1,060 miles. , Push limitiog the powers of the powers speai fie ally The Housa bill was bjr unanimous consent taken from the'calendar and CnUam ot Illinois moved to amend it .by striaiu^ tut all after the exacting clause and inserting the i<rnvi«iion of the Senate r ill.

From the Michigan crop report of Jan. 1, 1885. we learn that the total average cost- of producing and marketing one acre of wheat in the southern: four tiers of eounties was $15.70. Subtracting the value of, straw per acre from tliis and we have $14.25. Dividing this amount by the aveaage yield per acre (19 8H) and we^have 71 and 7-tenths cents*—the actual average cost of raising a bushel of wheat in the southern four tier* of counties. From this it can readily be seen how much our farmers have made out of theif wheat crop of the past season. The K. 0 . T.

While the men were talking Mrs. Kuril brought in > some older, which waa so hard the men soon became intoxicated and a friendly argument, under its influence, turned to [a wrangle, followed* by blows. They clinched and fought desperately. Mrs. Eurta. becoming alarmed, rushed to a I y neighbor's and John Holibaugh returned wish her. The two saootded finally in separating Earts and Hyland.

An enormous snow slide occurred in the mountains ef the province of Oorinthialn Austria, on the 18th. which overwhelmed in an instant the portion of the city of Klagenfurt which lies under the s Alpine foothills. The snowfall has been, unusually heavy this winter, but no danger was anticipated ami 1 a few days before, when slight earthquake shocks were reported at various points in the Oarnio alps. Then there was anxiety felt in Klagenfnrt, not merely became the earthquake might visit them, bnt becanaerthe slight vibration of the mountains would start an avalanche that might wrtck the old historic town. Outside of these fear* some hunters brought the UDwelcome news that there were signs of movements among the snow maBsei on the mouotaiaa; bnt he at* tribute*) it to the partial thaw On the morning of the 18th, however, when worshipers were on their way to the cathedral, a heavy rumbling was heard far up the mountain. A glance up from the city saw th» Knew clad surface in billowy motion, and in lees than three minutes the avalanche came with a crash and a roar upon the outskirti of the town, burying some houses thirty feet in at tha time.

Representative Oate*,rrom thecsmmittees on Publio Lands, has prepared a report on the bill to prohibit aliens and foreigers from acquiring or owning lands wituiu the United btaie*, which tne committee haa reported to the Housd witn the recommendation that it pass. Ojiteesiys: "Your committee ascertained with reasonable eertainty that certain noblemen of ^Europe, principally Englishmen, have acquired and now own in aggregate about 21,OJO,000 acres of Jaad within the United States. We have not sufficient information to state the quantity owned by untitled aliens, nor is it to be so important as it is ganraily held in smaller bod its. This alien, non-resident ownership will, in the oouree of time, lead to a system of landlordism incompatible with tne best interests ot tne free institutions oi the United States. Tne foundation for suoh » system is being laid broadly in the Western States and Territories. A-considerabie number of immigr*nta annually arriving in this country are to oecome tenant* and herdtmen on tne v«st possessions ol these foreign lord*, undtr contracts made and entered into before they sail for our shores. The avarice and enterprise of European cipitaiiet* have caused them to invest many millions in American railway land bonds, coverinar,| perhaps, 100,000,000 acres, the greater part of which, under fore closure aaies, will most likely betore many jears become the property bl thew foreign ohdholders, in addition to their present princely poaaeasioas. it it thua manliest if the present large alein o ftnerehip is an evil of which we have no doubt, the probabilities of near future still more imperatively demand legislation for its prevention." The bill propojes, as a part of the loreign policy of ti Hoonntry, WiQjigrateonljpro^ctiVfciyv snow, and sweeping higher structures before it like straws Parties of men at once rushed to thejresoue of the overwhelmed citizens.

Carroll Wright, of Massachusetts, who has been nominated by the President for Commissioner of Labor Statistics, is well equipped tor the office. His success in statistical work tor the State is a recommendation that leaves no doubt ot the best possible service in a broader field. A correspondent of the New York Sun puts the cost of certain articles to the American people thus: Cost of bread, $500,000,000; cost of meat. $808,000,000; co&t of cotton mid woolen goods, $452,000,000; -total, $1,2«0,000,000; costTof intoxicating liquors, $900,000,000; taxation for police, juries,~tt»rts, etc., caused by liquor, $500,000,000; total, $1,400,- 000,000; cost of intoxicating liquors over bread, meat, cotton and woolen goods, $140,000,000. Save the $140,- OQQ01)0, where would the hard times be? There is no conundrum in that. The Uniud State* Consul at Calcutta gives some figuresthat will interest wheat growers and the public generally. The average production of wheat in India lu.-t \ v u r w i u 9 bushels to 13 bushels per acre in the United States. The entire crop ot India last year was 244,900.000 bushels. At Delhi, the grain centre of the country; wheat is worth 80 cents, and it costs 19i cents to tran^pn\ it to Calcutta, against an average of 1- cents to transport from Chicago, out grain centre, to New Yorkrand Calcutta is double the distance ot '.New York from Europe markets. If thest figures are correct, Indian wheat nee< not prove~~s fornrkhibfe competitor with our surplus for foreitrn trade. Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, Call of Florida, Piatt, of Conneticut, Cam eron, of Pennsylvania, Vance, of Forth Carolina, Ingall, of Kansas, Jones, of Nevada, Hampton, of South Carolina, and Vest, of Missouri, have havu been re-elected. Henry M. Teller, Secretary of the Interior, comes buck »" pln™» nf H i l l , frnm Colorado Col, Spooner-gets-the seat of Aii^us Cameron, fronr Wisconsin, Jonatl.nn <Jha.ce, of Rhode Island, fornrevly a prominent of the lower House, frets Anthony's seat, and William. M. Evaits takes the plane of Elhridge G. Lapham, from New York. Of Uol. Spooner little is known outside of his State; Teller has distinguished himself in President Arthur's Cabinet, and on his return to the Senate is far-better equipped than when he left it: Evaris is the strongest and best known of the new men, and will'be a recognised power from the day he enters the .Senate. The Democrats hold their own intellectually and the Republicans are greatly strengthened by the chancres. There is no sweeter and more interestingcharacter, whether m fiction or in re.il life, than the spinster who has for some good reason refused a lover's proposal, and being now past the hour of old maid. The ordeal through which she has passed seems to have refined her feelings, and of itself insensibly drawn to her the regards of all who know her history. Such a one is eminently loveable and sympathetic, forward in all good works, and a warm friend of married men and women, the confident of many a tender passion. Age dues not wither the beauty of her^eHspo^ jiifon, She never llahde'wi never • ' V .t*#4< retails illnatured gossip, but, on the other hand, though prompt to put in a sensible word in a crisis, does not deem J t her mission to set all the people around her right. She makes an admirable aunt, and is very necessary to a large circle of cousins. Many a young fellow on the threshold of life bears s kindly rememberanee of her for the good nature and tact with which she helped him to _steer clear ••^shoals where he might otherwise h*3l been- w recked—P ittaburg "Dnv patch.

Mrs. Eluaes knew the woman, who bad frequently visited her befcre. She was astonished at her condition, and ordered an undertaker to take charge of her remains. ' Ue put the body in a coffin and kept it till this evening, when her brother, wuo is employed in the Mott Haven Iron Works, arrived and took the body to Mott Haven. Her ..sister had previously telegraphed to Birmingham making inquiries, but bad received no reply. On Friday last the woman was questioned by Joslyu as to how she came to Derby.

CHAPTKB 1» Margie Lee sat upon the broad stone door step picking the caps from a large bowlful of srawberries. , It -was one of those perfect days that come in early »lune, when no sunshine could be brighter, no flowers gayer, no skies bluer, than those upon which this day arose. The broad, spreading elm that grew just by the well outside the door, cast its shadows upon the step and within the opea door and window, making a picture that seemed the perfection of leafy coolness. But poor Margie felt none of the pleasantness of the scene. All through the warm, sunshiny morning she had "baked and brewed, scrubbed and stewed," within this seemingly cool retreat, with a stove t iat persisted in being red-hot. There had been butter to churn, pies to bake, the kitchen floor to scrub, and dinner to prepare and only poor, tired Margie to doit all To be sure, there were Clarice and Vi; butrtheii Clarice had an "affair"— a love' affair—and, poor dear, no wonder that she did not feel like doing such commonplace things as washing disbe* or stringing heans, fcr her affair bad not terminated happily, and she was venr, miserable; so she sat in the cool, shaded sitting-room and perused absorbing pages of Daniel Deronda, and imagined herself worse of than Gwendolen Harleth. // ' , And Vi—4jbe might have helped her elder siste* *»jnt of her mftn^ domestic difficultier,' but Vi was a genius. She could_iiaiitt lovsly picttrresy and write, OJsuch beautiful poetry,/and she< preferred to spend her time, pencil or brAishlin hand, out_ji.n/der the leafy gie toiled air alone, being right and left hand, eyes and feet, f6r'iather_and y [ and Clarice. ^^^ Margie wag strong and active^ She had not had any "affair," so what could be more proper than that she should look after the comforts of the others? / But human/nature is fallible, and hands and feet and eyes will grow wearv, and^,Sometimes Margie sighed over the hof/stove,and gazed out over ^fae^miling landscape and wished there / > • * • was nothing to do but wander down the shady lane or sit upon the bank of the broak. /But Margie bad not had much '•play-time" before, and now things were to be worse. A young man had written from the city, a3king to be receiver as a boarder for the summer at the/farm house, and Dr. Lee, Ending it hard to make both ends meet, had consented to his coming. He had objected at first, thinking it /would add to Margie's cares, "already too heavy for Iter young shoulders," he said lovingly; but Vi had said she would help Margie with everything, and-even Clarice had promised her help when the work was very heavy, and they would get on "splendidly," in Vi's enthusiastic language. So this morning Margie did not stop to think of brook or, sunshine or anything else omside of her own province. She was hurried. Father had gone to the station t© bring the stranger home and they would be here presently', and the strawberries were to be finished, the potatoes to mash, and the table to arrange, all in fifteen minutes. So Margie's nimble fingers, gory with the heart's blood of the great ''early scarlets," flew faster and faster, and at last,they were all done, and gathering all up she hastened to do other duties. k The stove was hot, Margie's face was scariet and her fingers burned from close proximity to the steaming potatoes::—A voice sounded from the doorway: "Don't you want some help, ma'- amP" Margie turned at the sound of the merry voice and smiled a welcome from hereyes. from pantry to table, his diminutive apron fluttering like a flag of truce at every, mottofw • • f Margie? finished her potatoes, gave the last look at each savory dish ready fo be removed from the fire, and then stepped to the door to view tha.on*rations of her new "help." A single glance at the table sufficed, and her clear ringing laugh sounded through the house, bringing Clarice with her book from the sitting room, and Vi from the grape arbor, to find out the oause of Margie's unusual merriment. "What are you doing, John MaynardP'' cried Ti, while Clarice looked in silent wonderment from John to Margie. "I'm the new help, ma'am, and I'm laying the table," said John, dropping a courtesy with bis ridiculous apron and looking with pride upon his work. "Toa must think either our family or our appetites have increased amaringly since j p u were here last," said Vi, pointing to the piles of plates, cups and jsaucers that adorned tjie board. "I judged from tha number of vessels Margie was engineering out there on the stove that vou would want a food many dishes, so I put on most all could find/' striving to wipe his moist brow upon his apron and failing most ignobly. Clarice went back to the sitting room murmuring "how hot it was;" and Vi glanced half ashamed at the cheery face of the stalwart "help." "OhMargie! why didn't you call me to come and help you? I get so interested in clouds and flowers and beautiful things out there that I never think of other things as I ought to d_o.'_^_ " T h e r e i n lav the table, John; do you be off," and Vi pushed back the pretty curls, turned up the dainty cuffs at her wrists, and proceeded to right things energetically. Violet was not a selfish creature, only thoughtless, and she was really sorrv that she had been enjoying herself all _the morning while her sister had been working in the hot kicchen. St. John took off his apron and sat down upon the broad stone door step in the shadow of the elm and watched Margie flying about here and there, intent on her work, and thinking what a sweet, cheerful little body she was, with her bright, smiling eyes and tidy ways. "Margie," he said, presently, "here comes your fatherrwith a stranger, upF the road." *• ^'" "Oh, yes," said Margie,^te^ping to the door; "that is ou^ hoarder.

Th^n .Clarke would leave-her hook: and come out m the garden and stroll over the grounds with him, talking in a half sad, half oareloss, way about the trials and hardships o t life, until the bright, cheerful conversation of her companion would cause her to forget her sorrows, and she would startle her* self and all others by laughing a gay, joyous laugh, so like the Clarice of old. And Vi. would show him her pictures to criticise, and read her noems to be admired, all of which he did so kindly and pleasantly and with an air of such genuine simplicity that pretty, enthusiastic Violet would smile brightly with her blue eyes, and vote him good as a brother. For Vi. was not a sentimental, susceptible maiden by any means; only a bright, merry 18-year-old girl, who admired this pleasant companion immensely and expressed it openly. These morning chats at the window, were not the only ones Margie and Leonard Bryant enjoyed together; for after tea, when all the work was finished for the day, the young girl would don some cool, airy dress, brightened by* knots of ribbon, and sit down upon the steps of the porch in front of the house, and presently Mr. Brvant would saunter out with his cigar and sit beside her, or he would join the-three § EXPLOSION!

By the time Dr. Lee and his companion entered the dining-room, Margie had bathed her face and smoothed the wavy bands of hair into something like neatness, and stood beside her father's chair.

Great Bxcltemeatt in London. --- A few minutes past 2 on the afternoon of Jan. 24, a terrific explosion oeeurred ia the erypt of Westminster hall, which forms the vestibule to ihe houses of parliament. The spot at which the explosion oeeurred is elese to the House of lords An immense amount of damage was done to the building. Four people were seriously injured and- two policemen, who were in Lhe immediate vicinity of the explosive when it went off, are said to be dying. The in Carnal machine was first seen by a lady, who, being carious to know the contents of the strange looking package pointed it out- to a policeman named Cole, at the same time asking htnvwaat it was.. . Cole soiled the box and the explosion followed, dealing destruction on a 1 sides and eompleteiy wrecking the hall. Three minutes alter the above ooourrenee, and before the people in the vicinity had realised the lull extent ot the dii a^ter. a deafening report was heard and the second ou< rage of the day had been consummated.

In fact there had been no one in particular to talk to, unless it might be John Maynard. John, poor fellow, had long ago lost his heart to Margie Lee, and when in her presence topics of conversation [did not spring readily to his tongue, orrat least such topics as he dared to utter, and Margie never dreamed of the wealth of information that lay stored up in t h e mind of her childhood's friend and companion. : ,^ '^ [TQ BE CONJCJKtJED.] The West £hore ioad is said to be in a wrecked condition, and a principal New York creditor thinks it will net take long to ruin it as at present organized.

Sixteen of the viiitors were seriously injured. A11 the explosions occurred at the same moment. At the Tower the scene was. one of ohaotio terror, guards and visitors tumbling over each ottier in an effort to escape. As soon as the cause of the teniae detonation was realized the gates were closed and were not opened until the antecedents or each individual had been thorougblv sifted. Ae the particulars of the explosion* are learned they develop an organized attempt at the destruction ot life ana property beyond any hitherto dreamed of, even by the 8ootland Yard authorities. The places selected by the dynamiters for their operations were apparently thoee where the**greatest fatality would be likely to occur, because of the number of people who frequent them etch day. The explosion at the Tower of Londorf took place in the famous White tower. The quantity of dynamite used here mast have been greater than at the other points of attack as the roof of the White tower was blown completely off and the structure itself shattered almost beyond recognition. Among the injured here wero several children ot tender years, and their pale faceB, bleeding wounds and broken limbs were so pitiful to behold that when they were carried from the quaking building and across one of the courtyards the crowd which had run to the open ipaoe for safety became thoroughly infuriated. Frepsied yells of IJLyuch the villalnsV^ Raast the fiends," were heard on all •ides Hundreds of rifles which ware store 4 in the Tower have been damaged beyond repair. The White tower was set on fire by the ex-: plosion, and the flames ware suppressed with the greatest, difficulty. All the troops are under arms: The ancient armory of the Tower, with perhaps the choicest specimens of ancieht armor in the world, has been destroyed. Police patrols are moving through the city in ail directions, and a cordon of police has been pkcsd around every public building, A ourrwtuudent of the United Tress was accorded an interview with Maj. Majendie, government inspector of explosives, on the subject of the outrages. He Btates that the explosives were compounds of nitro-glyoerine precisely similar to those which caused the explosion at London bridge and elsewhere Maj. Majendie further said that from information which he had received from the polios authorities he w u satisfied that a woman had been the chief conspirator in placing the dynamite in the lobby of the house. Suspicion also resits upon women in the other cases. Both in Westminster hall and at the Tower the duet and soot of oenturlea were released by the explosion. At WMtminster the dense clouds of dust added immeasurably to the terrors of the panic and stampede.

Westminster hall is one of the most cherished antiquities of England. It was originally the grand banqueting hall of an extensive palace built in; the year 1047 by William Rufus, the sou of William the Conqueror—the second of the line of Norman- kings It was long famous as the largest hall in Europe, the-roof of which was supported without oolumns. It is the' only portion of the original palace still remaining. It has for centuries been the soene of state trials, and upon the aeoession of every new king a grand banquet was served |in it.

Referred to the committee on muuicipal corporations. 1' Now, some fine day in the near future Tthat committee will report the petition back to the H^Use with the recommendation that it do pass and t h a t the-prayer of the! petitioners be granted unless something is done immediately toward . a compromise. What we mean by this is, t h a t if we understand the mn.ri.pr r.orree.tiy, the dissension arose about the boundary of1 the village and not from the incorporation proper. Wo think, even now, At can be aimacably adjusted and the bill reported back in an amended form so as to keep everything harmonious, still remain incorporated, and build up and elevate our little village, which has good prospects for the future if we will only work together and make it what it should be. But if our citizens are all contented-to sit idly by and see the right ot protecting ourselves taken from us, the hopes of our future blasted, then we have no more to say on 'the subject, but can grin and bear it with the rest.

A THRILLING EXPERIENCE. R e m a r k a b l e S t a t e m e n t o f P e r s o n a l D a n g e r and Providential Baoape The following story —which is attracting wide attention from the preas—is so remarkable that we cannot excuse ourselves if we do not lay it before our readers, even though its length would ordinarily preclude its admission to our limited spaoe. To the, Editor Bochater (N. Y.J Democrat. SIR,—On the first day of June, 1881, I lay at my residence in this city surrounded by my friends and waiting for death. Heaven only knows the agony I tbon endured, for words cau never describe it. And yet, if a few years Dreyleus any one had told me that I was to be brought so low, and by so terrible a disease, I should have scofied at the idea. I had always been uncommonly strong and healthy, and weighed over 200 pounds, and hardly knew, in my own experience, what pain or sickness were.

This was just the way I felt when the relentless malady wlfich had . fastened itself upon me first began. Still I thought nothing of it; that probably I had taken a cold which would soon pass away. Shortly after this I noticed a heavy, and at times neuralgic, pain in one side of my head, but as it would come one day and be gone the next, I paid little attention to it. Then my stomach would get out of order and my food often failed to digest, causing at times great inconvenience. Yet, even as a physician, I did not think that these things meant anything serious. I fancied I was suffering from malaria and doctored accordingly. But I got no better. I next noticed a peculiar color and odor about the fluid* I was passing—also that there were large quantities one day and very little the next, «and that a persistent froth and scum appeared upon the surface, and a sediment settled. And yet I did not realize my danger, for, indeed, seeing these symptoms continually, 1 finally became accustomed to them, and my suspicion was wholly disarmed by the fact that I had no pain in the affected organs or in their vicinity. Why I should have been so blind 1 cannot understand. I consulted the best medical skill in the land. I visited all the famed mineral springs in America and traveled from Maine to California.. Still 1 grew worse. N o two physicians agreed as to my malady. One said I was troubled *vith spinal irritation, another, dyspepsia; anotherrheart disease; another, general debility, another congestion of tbe . base of the brain; and so on through a long li3t of common diseases, tne symptoms of many of which 1 really had. In this way several years passed, during which, time I was steadily growing worse. My condition had really become pltia}»1o. The slight symptoms I at first experienced were developed into terrible and constant disorders. My weight/had been reduced from 207 to 130 poiinds. My life was a burden to myself and friends. I could retain no foods pfi my stomach, and lived wholly by injections. J was a living mass of pain. / M y pulse was uncontrolable. In my a^ony I frequently fell to the floor,and clutched the carpet, and prayed f o / death. Morphine had little or no effect in deadening the pain. For six days and nights I haa the death premonitory hiccoughs constantly. My water / w a s filled, with tube-casts and albumen. I was struggling with Bnght's Disease of the kidneys in its last stages! / W h i l e sufferingthus! received a call from my pastor, the Rev. Dr. Foote, at that time rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, of this city. I felt that it was our last interview, but in the course of conversation l>r. Foote detailed to me the many remarkable cures of cases like my own which had come under his observation, *by means of a remedy, which he urged me to try. As a practicing phybioian and a graduate of tbe schools' I convulsions, apoplexy or heartdisease. As one who has suffered, and knows by bitter experienoo what he says, I implore every one who reads these words not to neglect the alighest symptoms of kidney difficulty. Certain agony &nd probable death will be the sure result of such neglect, and no one oan afford to hazard such chances. I am aware that such an unqualified statement as this, coming from me, known as l a m throughout the entire Lland as a practitioner and lecturer, will arouse the surprise and possible animosity of the medical profession and astonish alt~w1th whom I am acquainted, but I make the foregoing statements based upon facts which I am prepared to produce and truths whioL X can substantiate to the letter. The welfare of those who may possiblv be sufferers such as I was is an ample inducement for me to take the step I have, and if I can successfully warn others from the dangerous path in which I once walked, I am willing to endure all professional and personal consequences.

So solicitous; however, was Dr. Foote, that I finally promised 1 would waive my prejudice. I began its use on the first day of June, 1881, and took it according to directions. -At first it sickened me; but this I thought was a good sigh for one in my debilitated condition. I continued to take it; the sickening sensation departed and I was finally able to retain food upon my stomach.

Since my recovery I ha ye thoroughly re-investigated the subject o r kidney difficulties and Bright's disease, and the truths developed are astounding. I therefore state, deliberately, and as. a physician, that 1 believe more than onehalf of the deaths which occur in America aro caused by, Bright* * dittjse of the kidney8. This may sound li ke a rash statement, but I am prepared to fully verify it. Bright's disease has no distinctive symptoms of its own, (indeed, it often develops without any pain .whatever in the kidneys or their vicinity,) but has the symptoms of nearly every other common complaint. Hundreds of people die daily, whose burials are authorized by a physician's certificate as occurring from "Heart Disease," "Apoplexy," "Paralysis,"' "Spinal Complaint," "Rheumatism," "Pneumonia," and other common complaints, when in reality it is from Bright's disease of the kidneys. Few physicians and fewer people, realize the extent of this disease or its dangerous and insidious nature. It steals into the system like a thief, manifests its presence if at u\l by the commonest symptoms and fastens"itself upon the constitution before the victim is aw&ro of It. It is nearly as hereditary as consumption, ciuiteas common and fully as fatal. Entiro families, inheriting It from their ancestors, have died, and yet none of the number knew or realized the mysterious power which was removing them. Instead of common symptoms it often shows none whatever, but" brings—death- suddenly froni- T wo handsome silk flags, made of silk raised in America, by Americans, and reeled, spun, dyed, woven and mounted in Philadelphia, were presented to .the houses of con* gr«588 a few daya since. / Mary 8.

And thus it kappened that it was fully a week after the arrival of the summer boarder that Margie found the opportunity to go down and see Mrs. Maynard, as she had promised. She went alone one evening, and. found John leaning disconsolately over the paliDgs, his hat pulled down over Ms eves so completely that he did not notice her approach until she stood beside him. "Are you asleep, John?1' she said, touching his arm. He started and raised his head, such agiad, .tender light leaping into his blue eyes.-4frat if Margie's thoughts had not boon intent elsewhere she must havo read the story they revealed. "1 thought you had forgotten us, Margie," he said, opening the erato fox her. "I never forget my friends,'1 she answered; "besides you arefoolish to think such a thing just because I hare not been h^rn tor a few days. I have been very busy and could nardly find time to come." 'Yes, 1 suppose your time is taken up considerably now." said John, the cloud coming again in his eyes. "I do have a groat deal to do," tho young girl answered, gravely. "It seems to me we don't do much at our house this warm weather but cook and eat. . I will bo baked to a cinder some of these days and on coming into the kitchen you will probably find a charcoal or two lying around—all that is left of my mortal remains." "OhMareio, don'Jt talk so," said John savagely. rrI was afraid EfiaT dandyfied young fellow would give you more to do- than you are able to bear. What with his pampered appetite and his immaculate linen he would work a woman to death," "For shame, John, to talk so about thepoor young man. Yoa don't suppose 1 do his washing, do you?—nA.nd if you could only see how much better he looks since coming here, you would not begrudge the little time it takes to prepare wholesome food for him." "What do I care now ho looked when he came here P 1 don't like to sec you slaving yourself to death for him, when I would,—" Here Mrs. Maynard came down the "You will oome again soen, dearP Don't lot your new friend keep you away from us altogether." • 4 will not let anything keep me from you, my dearest friend," exclaimed the young girl, impulsively, throwing her arms around the old lady's neck, and resting her soft cheek agaicBt the motherly one of her companion. , "Bless you, my dear child, wherever you are." Mrs. Maynard neld the fresh young face close to her own a moment, thenr released it, and Margie walked toward tho gate, feeling as though she had taken farewell of something forever. John walked along quietly a few moments after they left the gate, thinking how to broach tho subject that lay nearest his heart Margie talked of common-pi ace things, and seemed as bright and friendly as ever; but somehow John could not lead the conversation up to the subject in bis thoughts, and not being a man to jump headlong into a suject like that in the midst of different topics, he was silent, answering only in monosyllables, and sometimes at random, until Margie began to feel awkward and somewhat hurt at his unusual taciturnity, and was wishing herself at home, when laughing voices sounded in front of them, and three figures came in sight. They were Mr. Bryant and her Bisters, and upon recognizing Margie and her companion, Vi. laughingly declared that Mr. Bryant had become alarmed at Margie s loDg stay, and had insisted upon being shown the way to her destination to bring her safely home. "She was in good hands," said John, shortly. "So I told him," answered Vi, "but nothing would do him but he must make Hsure of it; s a off we tramped; but I am sure I'd rather have staid at home, for I've got gravel in my shoes, and feel like I were making a penitential pilgrimage." Here Margie performed the ceremony of introduction between the two gentlemen, each bowing slightly and expressing himself happy to meet "the other; Vi. declaring, afterward, that they looked as if they meant "happy to have eaten each other." So John's opportunity was past, and not caring to endure the presence of the other "three, he bade them all good night and started back alone. Poor John! How many like you have resolved, fervently, to do" a certain thing, and when the time comes to put the resolve into action, fail of courage, and so lose tho only opportunity fate allows them; and. as a consequence, suffer years, or. it may be, a life-time of uDhappiness. The days went ou7 outwardly—the" same at the farmhouse. Clarice read innumerable romances and talked of impossible remedies for wasted lives. Vi. wrote numberless poems; painted many pictures, and resolved'unnumbered resolves to write and paint less, and work in the kitchen more; and Mr. Bryant smoked uncounted cigars, and thought an infinite variety of thoaghts, and through them all ran a vein of strange, new, unreal ideas, and they were all concerning Margie. At first she had been co him the neat, rather pretty girl he had seen standing behind her chair in the dining-room that first evening at the farm. Then as his acquaintance/ with her grew, and ho talk-^ And suddenly there came to her knowledge that this voice and those eye* were dearer to her than any others in the whole world. Tears gathered in her eyes and glistened between the clasped fingers. The day seemed to darken; she could not imagine life without him, and she had no reason to expect that her life could be spent in his presence; so Margie sobbed, and just then Leonard stepped in to ask for a piece of twine, and heard the sob.

I suppose it increases your duties considerably; but don't work too hard dear; too mucb work is no bettor for girls than for boys." Margie sank down wpoa the steps as they reached the porch and said: "Let us sit out here, Mrs. Maynard; the air is so pleasant" So the old lady sat down in a low armohair that stood -upon the porch, and John threw himself down on tho steps at Margie's feet, concent for the present in her nearness and the delight ful thought of that homeward walk " would take with her when shoywas ready to go.

Af ier talking some time with her old friend Margie rose to go. A Pretddent's L e t t e r . LThe Philadelphia Times, in an interesting article on letters by ignorant men, gives the following which an old neighbor addressed to Andy Johnson after he became president: MOKTBBEY, Tenn., Feb. 2. 1866. Dear Andy: Possibly vou have fargotten your old friend who knowed you so well 30 years ago in Greenville, but I guess not. I recollect the first speeoh you ever made, Andy. You see I am living here in McNair county where the hill Jand i s ao poox that i t won11 sprout cow peas, but the hammock land is good for 40 bushels of corn to h e acker. Andy Ime brakin land now and soon will bo plant'n. I beam that guvernmont is going to give farmers oil kinds of seeds. My wife says to me write to Andy about it. Now Andy kin I git seeds for garden truck white hed cabage, shellot onions parsley, turnips (sweet kind), lettis, redisbes, sweet corn, Irish partaters (about 1 bushel), canots, limy beans, green peas, blackide peas, string beans, squashes, mush millions, and water million also if you kin git the right sort. You needen send no pun kin sead, but Sarah Ann sez she would like a few improv termatter soads if it don't trouble you too much, Sarah Ann also sez if you havo enny nice runnin vines sieh w s u m t h i n g like a jony"gourd vine with a purty red and white blossom she would like to have it. Also have you got enny grass seeds that beats Burmudy or timothy. Grazin is preshous bad in McNair County cept in the bottoms where the bull nats eat up the stock in summer. Andy, we thought wedo raise a right smart truck patch to sell in Corinth, which it aint but 10 miles to. Andy. I don't care to impose on good nature, tut don't fail to send the seads direct to Corinth postoffice. Andy, Sarah Ann also says she would like 10 pattern office reports. Weve got 4, we had before tho war a3 well as others and Sarah Ann sez tho pattern reports look so nice on the shelves and you bein such an old friend sheze sure you' 11 send them. Andy, don' L Iale me and remember your old friend and neighbor. No more at present. ed to her, a new fire seemed to gleam from her eyes (lovely eyes top he had found out) and .new impressions played in her countenance; until finally from being merely a pretty little country girl, she had become to him the most desirable being upon earth, and he set about to cause her t© regard him in the same light. Do you wonder that this was easy to do ? A young, warm-hearted girl receives daily from a pleasant, gentle-manne young man all those little attejitfojis-rn' nomeiy domestic rolatipnrf^at are in reality so littlo.^ut^ which express so much, and feeling d«y by day that she, and s h e l l y , is the one to whom he manner, and .who could not for*3-see the result? - - — Daily Margie's duties grow lighter ytf her spirit, the sun shone brighter, the air blew cooler, the flowers bloomed gayer and life was sweeter than Over before in all her happy girlhood. She did not stop to question why this was so; but it happened so nAxujpally, and grew'.upon her so gradually, that ere this innocent young girl knew it, her heart had gone out With ail the strength and freshness o f / first love, into tho keeping of tbia^gen^tO'-voiced stranger. She went often/as she had promised to sit a whMe of/an evening or afternoon w>£h Mrs. Maynard, but John was very seldom there at the same time/or when he was, it was so oarly in tlysrday t>bat time was no excuse for his alking home with hor, and ho rarely came-to the farm now; so nono noted her/so closely as to seo the new light sfebne in her dark eyes, or the fresh Vigor of her lightsome >tep. And at last as the summer drew on to its close, whon a few falling leaves and soft, sighing breezes told that nature was about to put ofl her robe of emerald and don bdr sober russet and warm crimson, Leonard Bryant began to talk of packing up his books and fishing rods, preparatory to leaving tho farmhoasei- He had brought his rods and taekle down Troon tho porch; to-arrangei;hem for tho fast time, and as ho whistled softly over his work, Margie,'sitting within the kitchen peeling apples, and listening to" tho merry tune, suddenly pausod in her work and dropped her head upon the window-sill. The thought had just come into her mind, how lonely everything would bo at home when that merry whistlo was heard no more; when the brignt smiling eyes andcheory Climatic Marvel.

Theres- Ttie B o y of t h e Burning Deak- Paris Cor. Newark, N. J. Advertiser. Few hut know the very pretty piece of poetry by Mrs. Hemans, "Casablanca,'' commencing "The boy stood oz> the burning deck." Tbe poetess states that the lad was the son of the admiral commanding the flagship L'Orient which took fire, and exploded; that young Cassbianca perished in tho explosion, refusing to quit the position allotted him by bis father, pending the battle of the Nile. I have been looking into the official account of the incident The admiral was Brueys, who was wounded in the head and hand early in the action. Ho continued \o give orders until cut into by a cannon ball; he uttered the r e v e s t to be allowed to expire on deck, which he did in the course of some minutes. Citoyen Casabianca, the father of the poetic hero, then took command; his son was a middy, but only aged ten,not thirteen, At that period lads entered the navy very young. Casabianca was also a deputy. Pending the action his son was by his side; the father was mortally wounded in the head by a splinter and became insenaiblig; hag*vft no injunctions to bis son, but the latter would not the less quit his wounded parent. B y W s time the ship was on fire. Several of the sailors had left and saved themselves on spars till picked np by the English boats. Aided by the purser young Casabianca and his father were lowered down by a piece of a mast floating by, but they had only got a short distance from the 120-gon Orient when she blew tip, and nothing more was seen of the Casabianoas.

No race or country is responsible for the acts of fanatical Nihilists General Gordon has been heard from. He sends word to Wolseley that he holds a sung and safe position in Chartoum, and feels comfortable, and could stay there for years without embarrusing difficulties in the matter of provisions.

P a p e r Lieutenant trreely ol Arcito fame bag recently published a letter which contains an' Interesting survey of future Arctic we*k. Among the five routes ""toward the Pole he prefers that of Franz ' Jowf La*d, basing his judgment mainly upon the necessity of finding a coast with & western aspect trending northward in order to penetrate beyond the eighty-third parallel. This view is now shared by nearly all experienced explorers, and it is probable that the next attempt >to reach the pole will be made by this route. A Russian expedition it is already announced, will make Franz Josef Land its base of operations, and if the English endeavor to surpass Lieutenant >Lock wood's record they will undoubtedly follow in the track of Xefgb;Smitn*s yacht to Eira Harbor. A* for future American explorations, it {§ well known that Chief Engineer Mel- ^ " would gladly lead a weU-equipped ftltion to the same quarter, if a id Grinnell could be found to furfefth the ships. Nevertheless, it is by no means certain that the Austrian ico /JaDds extend beyond the eighty-third parallel. If Franz Josef Land be an —archipelago similar to Spitzenbergen, progress byeond Cape Vienna, the extreme point sighted by Lieutenant Payer, would be as impracticable as Captain Parry found the sea ice north of Spitsbergen sixty years ago. i The East Greenland route is ordinarily rejected because Sherard Osborne's theory excludes a coast not having a western aspect Lieutenant Greely ais- ; misses it with a cursory glance as barred out by the heavy drift ice on the •coast Nevertheless, the German expedition found a good harbor on the coast, and Lieutenant Payer in the course of a month's sledge journey was able to go as many miles as he subsequently traversed in Franz Josef Land i n about the same period. The latitude reached was five degrees lower because the ship wintered on a lower parallel; and it is not probable that a more northerly berth for a ship can be found on that coast than the Germania's winter quarters. The sledge-work begins on tbe seventy-fifth instead of the Eightieth parallel, and consequently there will be a much greater distance &bt traversed toward the • Pole. I same time, the base of operations is _ 4Mre accessible than Eira Harbor and there will be a coast~jn*e7certainly as far as Lieutenant Lock wood's extreme point, and possibly a long way beyond. If Greenland be" made tfce"~scene~oT future explorations, the east cost will offer a shorter line to Lockwood Island than the Smith Sound route, and fresb disooveries will be made every mile beyond Cape Bismarck. Lieutenant Greely's suggestions re-, speoting the equipment of an Arctic expedition are judicious. He makes a strong point of having the sledges drawn by dogs, basing his recommendation upon Lieuten ant Lock wood's experience. He douots whether the United States government will extend aid to sueb expeditions for a l o i g time to come, but hopes that Lieutenant Ray's proposal for* a scienlillv cjloLy at Boothea Feiix in search of the Magnetic Pole will receive immediate support. One objection to this scheme is that the colonists , would have a roving commission. The Magnetic Pole was" approximately located by Captain Ross in 1831, but unfortunately it does uot remain stationary. It revolves around the North Pole onco in nineteen centuries, moving something over eleven minutes a year. The scientific colenists would have to search for it in that inhospitable archipelago where Sir John Franklin was lured to his death.

There is hope for those who suffer, no matter how sorely, or severely, in Dr. R. ,V. Pierce's " Favorite Prescription." Safe in its action, it is a blessing, especially to wmen, and to men, too, for when women suffer, the household is askew.

The spectacle in the House of Rep „ resentatives is the same noisy, lieter ogenerus one as of old, though if anything Mr. Speaker Carlisle has ' even less genius for preserving order than most of his predecessors. He is like au old-fashion schoolmaster, well liked and very able, but obeyed by n o b o d y . ^ I n the beginning ot the term everybody is trying to speak at the same moment. The disturbing shadow of the 4th of March is also * obviously cast on the session. There are no great orators, and no great leaders on either side of the Hou>e. In recent years by the time an able man get fairly seated in this body he is either withdrawn by his constituents or relegated to the Senate where he is in danger of withering in the its shade, by a species of dry rot. This fortune has nearly happened to such men as Voorhees, F r y e and . H.ile,all of whom were one vitalizing elements i n the lower house. The speech-making talent does not thrive in the Senate. The hard-headed practical men come to'fhe front there. Beck, of Ky., is a lustrous example of the latter. Ten years ago he was an insistent but opaque figure in the House of Representatives. There has been a very deep-seated feeling among Senators and Representatives from the South, which has recently broken out almost in open revolt, concerning the attitude of President-elect Cleveland in considering the claims of that section for Cabinet recognition- These gentlemen complain insisting that their grievance is well founded that Gov. Cleveland has avoided consultation with the representative men of that section, and confined his counselings almost wholly to the opinions of Northern Democrats respecting the character personal and extent to which the South should be recognized by the incoming administration. It is admitted by all that as soon as President Cleveland has been inducted into office demands will be made upon him from various quarters which he will be compelled to resist, and in their resentiment the disappointed poli* tician will turn upon and endeavor to rend him. In recognition of this more than probable condition of affairs some of his wise friends in Washington believe that in order to . nullify the effect of this opposition it will become necessary for President Cleveland'to intrench himsalfin the confidence of theinasses,whodemand at this particular jmvctuTer^lTaT- the Government shall be administered in the interests of the people as against the encroachments of corporations or monopolies.. The question arises, how can this be best accomplished. A careful review of the future Cabinet situation unmistakably reveals the existence of jealousies and heartburnings, of no ordinarv magnitude, _ which ar£ likely to disturb the prophesied harmony, of the, ..Democratic party. Of the 184 Democrats elected to the forty-ninth Congress, 108 are from the sixteen late slaveholding states; only 7o' Democrats, ^representing the 22 eastern, middle undrum must refer in some dark manner to the way the people tremble when I take up ray pen to write a double-leaded editorial.1' "No, Colonel,'1 the farmer said, "Louisville and Spain are alike because each is in a shocking bad state." May it not be reasonably presumed that thereupon Colonel Watterson called out his 100,000 unarmed men and made away with the Ohio farmer? X Sword Duel Near Vienna. A sword duel between Austrian and Russian naval officers, in which both were seriously wounded, has just taken place in the neighborhood of Vienna under the following circumstances: An Austrian officer had been present, incognito, 'at the recent maneuvers of the Russian Navy at Cronstadt. On* his return he published in the Armv and Navy Gazette a severe criticism of what he had seen, passing an unfavorable judgement oh both men and material of the maneuvering squadron. This article was discussed the other day in a company of officers-where a Russian belonging to the imperial navy happened to be present. He took offense at something that was-sa44-by-aa- Austrian comrade and sent him his seconds the next day, the result being as already stated.
