There arc sougs enough for a hero, Who dwells on the heights of fame; I sing for the disappointed— For thase who missed their aim. I sing with a tearful cadence For one who stands in the dark, And knows that his last, best arrow Has bounded back from the mark. I sing for th Otsego Lake would be delightful, even if it had no associations. Coop •r bestowed upon it, in the "Duer slayer, the name of “the Glimmer glass,” which well describes its oveliness. But to a Cooper eiitlius last—and that teiwi must include nil he readers of Cooper who have a leep sympathy with nature, and i.ive not had all their love of ro uanco rubbed off against the real ■>m of the day —it is doubly delight ful. The visitor probably cares con.- *.natively little for the purely per ioual associations of the locality with Cooper himself. He goes to Juoper's grave, to be sure, but the ught of it hardly arouses inteiMt. tie knows Cooper simply as a choler c, warm-hearted man, >lio died •ome thirty years ago, after nvolved in many disputes and law .uits with his neighbors and the rest >f tn inkind. The tourist goes, per laps, to see the spot where Cooper’s muse stood. The house Las burned down and tin p ace neglected. There are signs •verywhere of the honor in which ihat novelist is held by the people of that town. The hotels are called "Cooper” and “Femmjre.” The lit tle steamer that plies up and down the lake bears the name of “Natty Bumppo.” There is a ‘Leather stocking Falls,” and everywhere the nomenclature of the region is deriv ed from Coupel’s pages. But the visitor is a little doubtful in liis own mind bow far tliis is due to affection-, ate reinetuberance and how far to a -tpecutotive desire to utalize the as sociations of the past for the benefit of the hotel keepers of the present. There is an impression that the peo pie of Cooperstown are not Cooper ■nthiisiasts. Possibly they have grown tired of the subject. This would not be strange. To be tired iiuman. All this aside' however, the interest that the visitor finds him self seeking for is net an interest personal to Cooper. It is in his cre ation, which thus become greater Chan their creator. The traveler who comes here with any knowledge of Cooper's stories finds himself asking, not where Cooper lived and died, nor what the local traditions of him are, nor where may be seen relics or remains that will serve to recall his personality but where the scenes of his forest epics are laid where the Deecslayer, and the Big Serpent, Judith Hutter, Col. Effingham, and Hurry Harry, and Ben Pump played their parts in those exciting dramas that are the delight of every boy, and of many who are no longer boys. Cooper has made the unreal real, and the real in his person almost fades out of sight. These men and women are so full of life and strength that the Cooper en thusiast as he glides along the lake, almost expects to see the trees part on the bank, and the figure of Deer slayer or his friend, the faithful Del ware, shox itself. The feeling is greatly stimulated by the relations of this beautiful sheet of water and its surroundings to the Leatherstocking Tales in par ticular. It is u favorite amusement of novel readers to seek to identify character and scenes. This is not always easy to do, because the chem ical processes of fiction usually leave little trace ot tho originals. Every body remembers Thackeray’s whim sical sur; rise when ene day a Cap tain Ccstigan, true life and just as large, walked in upon bim. He bad honestly supposed the Captain to be a fictitious mixture of heel-taps of incidents and characters innumer able. The sama is often true of tin scenes of*fiction. But Cooper's methods, at least in several of the Leatherstocking stories, and notably in the “Deerslayer,” was different. It was largly photographic. He seems to have .taken delight in mak ing his cieations real, even to him self, by reproducing exactly the scenes with which he was familiar and through which they were made, to move. This was done with such literalness tl at the visitors can trace to-day, on the shores of the lake almost every st irring incident in the “Deerslayer,” with the added satis faction that, the scene is tut little altered now from what it was when Cooper w rote. Local pride and en terprise have marked many of these spots; and fortunately the descrip tion are no faithful that they prove themselves. They story of “Deer slayer,” which was published only a little more than forty years ago is, in this way, literally mapped cut. There have certainly been few in stances, if any, of this kind in fic tion. Tlio central figure here is always L -at'ierstock ing, who seems seme t mos to have gone out of the fash ions, but whom Thackeray—a good judge, surely-.-calls one of “the great prizemen” of fiction, better, perhaps, than any of Scott’s men, and ranks with “Uncle Toby, Sir Roger de Colerly and Falstaff—heroic figures all.” It is to be hoped that F dstaff .and Uncle Toby have not gone out of fashion too. The visitor goes to see the monument to Leath erstocking—as it really is, tho' it is inscribed with Cooper’s name —which stands in the beautiful cemetery of Lakewood, and look at it with as much interest, if not more, than he finds in the plain slab that lies on Cooper's grave in the graveyard of the pretty little Episcopal church. The monument is a simple column, with the figure of Leatherstocking at the top, in the act of loading his gun, and with his faithful hound at liis side. The figure is quite small, an I the general effect disappointing. The spot where it standi could not well be more beautiful. The ceme tery hill slopes gently to the peace ful exquisite lake, and the scene, in he soft September afternoon, is one of sweet repose and solemn beauty. The cemetery is on the eastern shore of the lake, and it is on the western hore that most of the stirring scenes of the books were enacted. At the southern end is the outlet, the Liny thread that broadens out in time into the wide shallows ot the Susquehanna. Right here is one of the most important land marks in “Deerslayer,” which it is impossible not to took at with some amusement. This i* the rock comfconly called the Otsego Rock, at which the Serpent was to meet Deerslayer, and which was often used to mark the rendez vous of the savages. Enbarking on lhe”Natty Bumppo” at the wharf, for the sail up the lake, we leave Cooperstown, with its mass es of foilage quickly behind. It is a pretty, comfortable village, without auy air of undue smartness. Dr. Oliver Wendell Homes is moved in one of his papers to the profound re mark, “Grass makes gins.” Ots**go county is a famous grazing country, and, by the way of confirming Dr. Homes’ mysterious generalization, is famous also for Its pretty, whole some looking girls. These are points in which a middle-aged man may take a scientific interest. It is also a great country for hops. Possible Dr. Holmes never noticed the con nection between girls and hops, and he is welcome to this suggestion. But by this time the boat is getting some distance on its journey. To the right, on the eastern shore, is Mount Vision, celebrated in the “Pioneer.” Leatherstocking cave is there, where the old man entrenched himself against the law, which par took too much of settlement ways for him to undeistand it. This is not much of a cave, but rather a hol low in the mountain. But a novelist must surely have a*license to scoop out his cave a little if he finds that it won’t accommodate his characters in good style. The entire action of “Deerslayer'’ passes either upon the lake or its im mediate shore, and this makes it oasy to follow it throughout from the deck of the little steamer. Two- Mlle Point, as it is prosaically called, two miles north of Cooperstown, on the western shore of the lake, is the point where Deerslayer and the Big Serpent landed to rescue Wah-ta- Wah from the Hurons. A mile further is Three-Mile Point/ where Deerslayer first killed an In. dian, and the dying savage, in ad miration, bestowed upon him the name of Hawkeye. This little prom ontory is now a site for picnics, with ample preparation of benches and tables and kitchen. Beyond Fivg mile Point is Hutter's Point, so call ed after Floating Tom,one of the new names taken from the books. Here Deerslayer first saw the “Glimmer glass.” North of here the most of the exciting scenes of the book are laid. Ont in the center of the lake is a white barrel buoy. This marks the ‘spot where “Muskrat Castle” stood —the locality being so carefully described by the novelist as to leave no doubt. There is a shoal there, where the blocß-bpuse was built on Defective Page J -PT piles, and the device was such a good poor to be farmed, had no timber of value ue on it, and Gordon tonight it more to help its owner than because he wanted the property. Soon after he moved to Georgia, and almost forgot that he owned the tract. One day an old Tennessee neigh bor rode up to his door and was re ceived with great coidialiiy. The Tennessean said he was in Georgia on business, and thought he would see his old neighbor before return ing home. After conversing on different sub jects, the Tennesseean brought the conversation around to real estate. “By the way, Gordon,” said the Tennessean, causually, “you have a piece of land next to mine, would you like to sell it? It is not worth much,” hq. continued, “but it will do for me to let the bees run on.” “Wei)/,’ replied Gordon, “1 had al most forgotten that strip what will you give for it?” “1 don’t think it's worth more than 810,* said the Tennessean, carelessly. “Oh! I reckon it’s worth more than that. I paid 850 for it, but then I justas lief get rid of it,for it’s no use to me now.” “I’ll give you 820 for it.” “Go a little better,” said Gordon with a smile. “Well I’ll give you $3O for it.” Gordon thought there was a slight eagerness in the Tennessean's voice and so stood out for more. The Tennessean raised to 850,being refused, continued to raise until he reached $lOO. By this time Gordon was arroused, and informed the Ten nessean that he reckoned he'd take a trip to Tennessee and look at the land. Ilis neighbor now saw that he had made a mistake, so tried to dis suade Goidon from the trip, saying the roads were not only bad but dangerous to riders. Gorton said he reckoned he had as good a horse, pistol and rifle as anybody, and was not afraid of a few hundred miles in the saddle, if it Wi.s through a wild mountain country. After some further talk the pair made arrangementsand started out. The ride was through a wild though beautiful country, and was accomplished in safety. After a rest at the house of the Tennessean the two gentlemen started out to inves tigate the land. It is a dreary tout ing place, a short distance south of the present Memphis and Charleston Bailroad, and not far from the Georgia line. The land lies on the mountain side, and is about as miserable looking piece of land as can be found. Old Gordon gazed at it a few iflinutes and said “I reck on you were right, neighbor; the land is not worth 85.*’ They proceeded a short distance further, Gordon was congratulating himself oa the idea of getting 8100 for land that was of no earthly use to him, when he spied a trail wind ing to the right toward a cove. ••Where does that trail lead to?’’ he asked. “Oh, that leads to a spring,” said the Tennessean hastily “but come over this way,” he continued. “Oh, if there is one thing above all others that lam fond of,” said Gor dou, “it’s a nrink of Tennesse spring water. I have not had a good drink since I’ve been in Georgia. It nlakes my mouth water to think of it.” “I'll take you to a better spring than that,” said the Tenesseean nervously. “Come on.” “This one will suit me,” persisted Gordon, starting down the trail. Finding that Gordon was determ ined to follow the trail, the Tennes seean reluctantly followed. Gordon had scarcely gone ICO yards before he saw where the blacksmiths had been digging coal from the mountain side. The Ten nesseean’s object in wanting the land immediately flashed across his mind. Turning to his companion with a meaning smile lie £?iid; “Well, neighbor, I reckon I’ll not sell.” The Tenesseean looked very uncom fortable, and Gordon's good humor made him feel more so. The mine was soon after promptly, opened, and a short railroad was built connecting it with the Mem phis and Charleston Road, These mines, which have now passed into other hands, Mr. Gordon having sold them and moved to Alabama, have, since their discovery, been valued at 81,000,000. Old Gordon is still alive, and is a hearty man of 80, while his two sons, Walker and the General, conduct the vast coal and land interests owned by lite family in Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama.— Boston Traveler. The illustrous Rachel was not only the most remarkable actress the world has seen, but was—or was re puted to b e—one of its greatest let ter-writers. Her correspoadents were many and her letters tc them numerous. When these letters were made public the world wonder ed at her knowledge, her observa tion, and her fine litterary style. For she wrote on all topics-love, politics, literature, art—and on all with equ.il facility. Her diction w.’.s elegant, and almost faultless. But now the truth comes out. She never wrote one of them! Who did? M. Cremieux, the famous law yer! He was her scribe, her daily lettei-writer! But he was not tor lover. No, the relations between them were of a purely business character. He wrote her letters |f or her and she paid him for doing it, and paid him well. Indeed Ido not think she could have beeu in love with him, for ke was a dwarf and lipd the ugliest face in France. But then it will be asked, who wrote the many letters whieh R tehel addressed to M. Cremieux himself? They have also been made public, a few of them, and I have seen the originals of them all. There are many of them, and they differ wide ly from those written by M. Cre mieux.- They aie badly scrawled and blotted. The spelling is atro cious. The grammar is a marvel of badness. Cotrid it be that Rachel herself write these? No. Even these are above her reach. History blushes to record it; neverlLelejs the illustrous tragetienne could not write at all, save to make, perchance, aourious scrawl by courtesy called her name. Rachel could just man age to read, that was all. These letters, then—let the truth be told— were written by her maid,ber femme de cliambre. She it was who acted as a scribe for the actress when the great lawyer was not by. Al.-s! how glory fad.s.— Chicago Trioune. Orcar Wilde, the “it” of sun-fluw er fame, claims that he can see an gels where other men see only flesh and blood. Gentle reader, notice Chat he says “other men” and then blush foi your sex. Oil, Oscar, why will you make such “cracks” at a suffering public? Why will you persist in calling yourself a man? Take that distorted imagination, poor misguided thing, and get tttee to a stone q aarry, There blot out a being that is a disgrace to all man kind, Vy throwing rocks at your self. If your delicate lilly-whits hand should be torn, and bruised by coming into contact with said rocks, just hire some by to throw the rocks for you almost anyone would doit for nothing though, and if you hap pen to be short of change you will probably have no trouble.— Peek's Sun. There is a peculiar charm and powei in the love of Jesus, as seen in St. Matthew’s gospel. When he himself speaks of love, as in the lourth gospel by the aposCel whom he loved, our love is summoned to attend, our affections so to speak, are in waiting—called specially into life; but when love shines through majisty, when we see the crook of the sheperd i i the lifted right arm of power, we are soothed as by sweet sayings overheard, and tokens of affection discovered unawares; we see not only the son of man loving his brethern, not only the son of God loving, the world, but our eyes Siem to behold the king in his beau ty, and we feel, in onr weakness, the everlasting arms beneath us.—Dean Alford. O Rachel as a Letter-writer. THE FARM. Feeding Growing Pigs. The hog has usually been fed as if he were capable of digesting all that could be crammed into his stomach, and li has been treated as if he were as hardy as a wild boar, and could en dure-extretnes of heat, cold, filth and neglect. the hog can only di gest a certain amount of food within a given time, and when he has eaten too much he suffers in consequence,, and especially if the food is of a kind not adapted to his requirement. His d gestive organs can bedisroranged as easily as can those of the horse, and filth taken into thc«ystem will cause him to become diseased the same as is peculiar to humans. Ihe accepted theory regarding cholera now is that it is a form of typhoid fever, and if tliis is true there is but one conclu sion to arrive at,which is that filth is at the buttom .of tl a difficulty. The eating of filth is bad enough, butttba drinking of filthy water is worse, as the animal is then thirsty, and the filth, being in a soluble condition, is at once carried into every portion of the body. The supposition that the kidneys cause the impurities to be eliminated is true only when the an imal is In a healthy .condition. Jf the surroundings are fiitby, the pores of the body will be closed. If, in feeding hogs, the farmer will abandon the practice of attempting to keep them in an fat condition while they are growing he will find that they will entail leas la bor of management and be more thrifty, while the excellent health in which he will find them when ready for being fattened will enable them to take on more fat and at less cost, than to keep them fat the whole year. All that is required with growing pigs is to keep their quar ters clean. Above all, give them as much fresh water as they can drink. If slop is fed, place it in a trough, where it will be eaten up clean, in stead of being scattered about to fer ment. Slop is not really filthy food. It is only when it is in a state of de composition and filled with disease germs that it becomes injurious; but to compel pigs to eat where they have deposited manure, or to drink water that has been impregnated with the same, will cause disease to break out In any herd. Batter From Refined Cream. All the fine, high-priced butter is made from ripened cream. The highest flavor acd aroma can be brought out in no other way. But ter made from sweet cream, other onlitions being favorable, may be palatable for a day or two, but it soon commences to change, and in a few days shows signs of rancidity. Butter made from sweet cream, just skimmed, lacks character and is al most neutral in taste. Tot mneb washing in fresh water also takes away the fine flavor. A moderate washing in weak brine is adopted by the best dairymen. Excessive wash ing, even in salt water is objection able. It would seem that the ripening process is a necessity at some stage, either before churning or else in the subsequent butter product. Expert butter makers are thoroughly con vinced that it is best tor cream to be slightly soured or thoroughly ripen ed before churning. However confident a dairyman may be that he knows all about making choice butter, however, much conceit he may have in his own methods, be can only command the highest prices by conL ruing to the tastes of the most fastidious consumers. If the best trade de mand highest butter flavor, which ean only be secured through tire churning of ripened cream, it is folly to consign parcels of butter made from sweet cream. Those who are willing to pay fancy prices for butter should be Indulged in their reasonable whims or tastes, and the dairyman who insists in making butter his own way, regardless of the wishes of the consumer, must take the consequences In slow sales and low prices. In fighting insects enemies, such as the striped bug, cabbage worm, garden flea, potato beetle, etc., one cannot begin toe early. Go over your cucumbers, melons and cab bages every day from the time you get the first peep at them till they show the rough leaf, give them a little cultivation and apply gritty turnpike dust, when the dew is on; sift the dust thiough a flue sieve so as to take the pebbles out of it, and if it is mixed with an equal bulk of thoroughly flned hen ma nure, all the better. Quince Preserves.—Select the best quinces for preserving, the oth ers i eserve for marmalade. Pare, core, and quarter the qtiincej, or af ter coring cut in rings. Allow three quarters of a pound of sugar to a pound of fruit. Bed the quinces in just water enough to cover them till they are tender. Drain them from this water and put them into boiling syrup made by putting one pint of water to two pounds of sugar. Boil about five or six minutes and put in to jars. HOUS&MOL4).

Pleasant, social com pan* ions will help us to digest what might otlieiwiso prove unmanage able. An Englishman, Without ob serving the laws of exercise or sleep, will digest an enormous dinner, and preserve his stomach because of his two hours chat and good fell twship. Let him eat the same quantity in the rapid restaurant faabian, sitting alone, and he would soon be a wretch ed dyspeptic. The influence of a quiet, social temper upon the stomach is one of the curious fact about digestion. Blessed are the story-tellers. A good story-teller, if bis stories are clean, is a godsend.

Everybody loved him, for he was a eunt nted aid happy child. fit t lought h ms?lf a little hero, and of ten, armed with a stick, made war on tie chickens and the geese. Al though Fred thought liim&slf so very brave there was one animal of which he was much afraid. What do you think it was? Well, it was a mouse. Such a little animal could make our young hero tremble and cry. In the evening when Fred went to b.*d, he was obliged to go through an unused room, where the mice seemed to hold possession. When he saw them running ever the floorer heard them gnawing, he would cry in a cowardly manner, for his mamma to come to him, One evening his mamma was sick, and his nurse was away from home. There was no one there but his papa, who was in the sitting room reading his paper. He told Fred it was time for him to go to bod, “Oh papa, will you not take me to bed? Ido not wish to go through -that room alone.” “Why do you feaa?” asfcod hit father. “I am afraid of the mice, and I bed lie ve there are rats, too.” “If that is all,” answered his fath er, “I can soon help you.” He took pen, ink and pspw, and quickly wrote the fallowing: “To all the rats and mice in this house: I hereby command yon to lot my little son go through all ths rooms of this house unmolested. Any rat or mouse that does not obey will be dealt with according to law.* The sather signed and then real the paper to his son. Fred took it, thanked him, and said *‘good-night” very prettily, and went to bed. He was no long*! afraid. He had often seeh his fathei give passes to people who wished to make a railway journey, so he had a high opinion of passes written by hi? father.

DEATH OF JUDGE DAVID DaVIB. Hon. David Dinis, formerly a fudge of Hie Supreme Court of the United States,and later United sLa,tes ..senator from fllinois, on.e of the jnost remark ible Bien of his ,age, ,died at his home in Blueiuington, |lll., on Saturday morning. 11 is death Which is univer.-ally deplored, falls ;wilh peculiar fo.rce iip’o.n his own im mediate neighbors and acquaintan ces, by whom be wns held in the highest The immediate CVUse of his ijeatb wa? erysipelas,!he result of a malignant carbuncle, Complicated with diabetes, which caused a rapid waste of his giant proportions. David Davis was born in Cecil county, on the eastern shore of Maryland, on March 9, 1815. He re jnoved to the west and settled in Bloomington,lll.where he wasadmit- Xed to the bar in 1835, ami commenced the practice of his profession. He Avat soon brought into public life, 'and as early as 1844 was elected a representative iti lhe state legisla ture. In 1847 he was a delegate to the constitutional convention, and a year later was elected a judge of the circuit courts of Illinois. "This office he held by repeated election nr.» til ue finally resigned it in J 362, when he was appointed by Preej.deut Lin coln a judge of the supreme court of the United States. Soon after Davis went to 11 inois, Elijah P. Lovejoy was murdered by a pro slavery mob as Aitor, where he pubj lislied an anti-slavery paper. This occurrance assisted to* imp less upon Judge Davis' mind a fear that some jday the whole country would have reason to recognize the repressive spirit of slavery. Judge Davis saw the birth of the Republican party, ihe divisions in Uie'Democracy, the isappointment of Douglas, and the elevation of Lincoln f.*cm a private citizen to the presidency. Riding ’the circuit of the state to attend courts as they were held in order, Mr. Davis became acquainted with Lincoln. Lincoln loved Davis for his warm, genial nature, simplicity qf charact r, truth and sincerity,and they went together like a pair of boys, riding in tho same buggy from town to town, lodging in the same room. He was never an arrogant Northern man, remembering the temptations and attachments of slaveholders as he had seen them, and this was probably one cause of the good understanding between him ahd Lincoln, both having been born In the south and bred m the west. Judge Davis having abiding faith in Llie west began to invest his patri mony and earnings in lands about JJloqmington, and as the country fiflecl up and |jjs property lippreciateu, and ‘thus lie grew Wealthy without ever overreaching himself ur his fellow men, or engag ing in any of the devious paths to riches. It is believed that the movemei'it in 1872 to nominate a liberal Repub lican, while it did not originate with Judge Davis, was designed to pro mote him to the presidency. It be gan in Illinois, though'it apparently proceeded Ironl Missouri. The Giec ley element in New York intended |,o nominate Dayid Davis to the pres niency. As the time of the Cincin nati convention approached, how ever, personal jealousies in Illinois, anticipating the result of the con vention, labored to divide that state. Unworthy"st’ppes Wcfß told to the prejudice judge Davis, and, there fore, the Blair and Brown element, which had the confidence of the pouth, finding Carl Schurz and others attempting to give the nomination to Mr. Adam? of Massachusetts, threw the purpose of the convention away by putting up Mr. Greeley. Judge Davis remained on the su premo bench until March 5, 1877, ■When he resigned to take his seat in the United States senate, to which office he h id been ejected by the Dem ocrats and Inijepehdents in the Illi nois legislature. During his service as senator he maintained strict inde pendence, and allied himself with the organization of neither party in that legislative body. He was elect ed presiding officer of the senate soon After Vice President Arthur assumed the duties of a higher office following tho death ot Presidpnt Qarfield, and continued to hold this position tip to the expiration ot liis term me in Bloom, ington. Mr. Davis' first wife died in 1879, which was a severe blow to him. He married a second wife— Miss Addie Burr ot Fayetteville, N. C.,a lady much younger than himself —on March 15,1883. The grading ou the line will be pommpneed at Sauk Centre within }he next thirty days, and pushed with vigor tQ completion.

Caldwell, of the Du luth, Huron and Denver, accompa nied by Chief Engineer Abbott, arrived jn Sauk Centre on Wednes day noon, haying driven in over the line of the proposed road. The -delay been occasioned by the desire to secure the best possible line between Benson and Appleton, they have fojjhd an absolutely straight line of twenty-two miles, without the slight est deflection, and with a grade not exceeding forty-two feet to the mile jvhice is practically a perfect level.

A r^w oc curved between biers, when Kelleher shot ata fellow gambler, ,00 the street. The Marshall started for Convey ...when the latter drew his revolver and shot the officer dead. That night Convey was taken from jail by a mob of citizens and hanged to a tree, his body riddled with bul lets, and left hanging. Judge David Payis, lhe best rep resenlative of political independ ence this country has seen for years, was aqi negative man, as Jndepe idents are so apt to be, but bad the courage pf big convictions. He was so well balanced that he could sit on lhe top board of the fence which divided the two par ties, and rule both. saip Jones und Sam Small, the not ed revivalists, are the prominent features at the Red Rock campmeet ing, antj they “draw” Ijko a circus or a minstrel troupe.

If that is thesourcjof their strength, they are weak enough, Gen.

This is a blow to the Ames-Glenn combination. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE. Washington, D. C-, June 28,1880. To the £ditor of the Herald This congress has passed a larger number of private pension bills solar thin any con gress before, but the President is putting his foot down firmly upon the policy of voting the peoples’money away faflUcriniinateiy. The Hopse, too, |s endeavoring to put a check ou pension legislation. With that ob ject ostensibly it) view Representative Mor rison reported from the committee a resolu. lion amending tile rules, so that in ttie pas. sage of general pension bill may state from .what source the money shall be laised to pay the pensions. It is snlcj tliat Mr. Morri son advocates a direct tax—such as in in come tax-for the payment qf pensions. In that way the people will l e made to feci the enerous tax, and then demand of congress a more Judicious dispensing of pensions. Mr. Morrison has also an ulterior object in view. He knows that so long as such immense sums are appropriated tor pensions there can be no reduction of the tariff. Two days were lost trying to get a vote on the resolu tion. The guestlan came up one day at 12 o’clock qnd tlie Republicans began at once to fililbuster. The point was raised that a qu irumof members was not present aud voting. A “call qf the House’.’ was ordered aud it was foynd that such was the fact. The doors were then closed and locked so as to keep in what members were there, and the Sergeani'-at-Arms and his assistants sent out in search of absentees, with orders to ar rest them wherever found and bflng them before the bar of lhe House. Tbp required number was not found, and so the locked in members were kept in “durance vile” till 5 o'clock, the fixed hour for adjournment The same thing was repeated on the next day and the “oall” lasted from 12 tos again, so that lor two daysthe “faithful” were lock ed inside the House chamber. The days were monotonous because no other business could be transacted. The members “whiled away” the hours in smoking, in reading the newspapers gnd in sendihg out the pages for some lunch and a little “strong lea” to wash it down with. Others availed themselves of the enforced opportunity to get up back por respondencc and to write friendly letters to useful influential constltutenvS al home. Sighs of relief and rounds of applause were heard when, at t be opening on the third tt was started that' the consideration x»f the civil appropriqtiqD.hll} set specially, for that day would be taken up. The Morrison reso lution will come up again at an early day when both the Randall and Morrison men will Join bands and lhe resolution probably be passed. The Departments are all busy in receiving bids and awarding contracts for furnishing necessaries to the Government during the coming year Judging from the number oi bids and the prices charged, lhe contractoi’s still have faith in the Government’s ability to meet its obligations. All the talk about a depleted Treasury has no effect in scaringoff bidders. The money of one party appears to bejust as good as that ot another, and Just as much of it seems to be spent. The money appropriated for the past year must be spent or else turned back Into thh Treasury, and rather than do the latter all the brussels car pets are being taken up and thousands of yards of matting laid ip its place. Uncle Bam is a good housekeeper, aqd believes in having new matting every dimmer and new body brussels and velvet oaipets in the fall.

This is Sauk Centre week and the court’s attention has been occupied almost continiously with cases from that end of the county. As a conse quence the Center's legal gentlemen are numerously present. Gov. Bar to’s portly frame has held up one side or the other of most of the cases tried, while just behind him has sat his son, Mr. L. R. Barto, junior mem ber of the firm, a clean-shaven,well balanced young man, who seems to have an abundance of itieas of his own and frequently made sugges tions as to the conduct of the trials. L. T. Storey. Esq., with his granger hat, is also here. “L. T.” has a way of looking at a witness from the rear part of his head somewhere, that is calculated to attract truth and repel falsity. He is supported byjhis partner,Col. Foster,of G. A.R. renown, who does most of the work before the jury. Amonjf the attendants at court this week from Sauk Center were Messrs. Kells, Pendergast, G. M. Bennett, A. G. Jaques, and Jno. Carney, all summoned as witness in the case of Alex. Moore against the N. P, R. R. Co.— Journal Pre»t. MARBIED. SBQBMER-HUBBARD.—Ih this village, on Tuesday eveniQg,Jane29tb,ate'.ght o'clock. Ur Rev J B. Drew, Cteo. H. Hosmer and Mi- Llxite Hubbard. The marriage of Geo. IT. Hosmer and Miss Lizzie Hubbard, which oc curred on Tuesday evening at the residence of the bride’s parents, will call forth the most cordial congratu lations on the part of hosts of friends in thia village, and elsewhere. The wedding wm a very quiet affair in teed, only the family and most inti mate personal friends witnessing the interesting ceremony, Both are well known in this vil« lags, and unusually respected for tbier many sterling qualities, Miss Hubbard has been a resident«of Sauk Qentre childhood, and ranks high in the estimation of all. She has been a valued teacher in the public and at the close of the school year the Board gave expression of their appreciation by presenting her with g handsome testimonial, a fine gold watch aqd chain, With rare ac- complishments of head and heart the groom is to be congratulated. Mr. Hosmer has been a resident of this village a comparatively short time, occupying the responsible po sition of book-keeper ill the First National Bank, and by his uniform courtesy and pleasant manner both at the desk and in society, he has won scores of business and social friends, who will tender to hint the warmest well-wishes for a long and happy life. The bride and groom will be at home after July sth, in the house of Mrs. Colvert cn First-st. A Large Shipment. On Monday night Messrs. Parker, White Stiles shipped 250 head of cattle by rail to Devils Lake, consist ing of two-yeai-old heifers, princi pally, with a faw cows and steers. The bunch averaged far better than any previous lot gathered here for shipment, and yet they were net such a class of graded sto?k as our farmers ought to produce for profit. The shippers say the country is full of cattle for sale, but it would be far more satisfactory to both buyer and seller if the stock were better. The trouble is too little pains and expense is taken in improving our native stock. The demand for Minnesota cattle in the Dakota and Montana ranges, whither these are going, is greater than for anyother, on account of their fine constitution and conse quent endurance. They are termed “rustlers,” for they will winter in good order under circumstances which lowa cattle could not possibly survive. By introducing superior blood into the herds nothing would be lost in this direction,and a materi al gain would be realized in size, and consequently in value. The cattle just shipped are design ed for the Mouse River county, and were all purchased within a few day within a radius ol twenty miles of Sauk Centre, and there are plenty left. Maplewood. The club organized for bui dinga summer house cn the lake has con cluded to purchase ten, instead of five acres, and it certainly has made wise selection, securing one ot the handsomest sites imaginable. A building will be erected at once, and not less than a thousand dol lars will be expended this year in improvements. It is the puiposeof the club to sell lots to its members who will erect cottages. Th# fine mineral spring on the tract will be tilted up to be made more conven ient ot access, the grove which is composed largely of fine maple, oak, linden and ash, will be cleared of undergrowth and seeded down, walks wifi be laid out, and the foun dation laid for a first class summer resort. Every acre of land contigu ous wid be enhanced many fold, an i the lake promises to become lamous at no distant day. The steamboat is a great factor in the enterprise. The club has named its place Maplewood, a very pretty and ap propriate title. An incorporation will be formed, and the work of building and improving will be com me need .*.t once. At a meeting held on Monday even ing committees were appointed on luilding steamboat pier and ini' pruvement of grounds. The commit lees commenced work at once, and secured bids lor lumber and lor labor. Work on the building will be com menced the last of tins week, or the first of next. A Bailroad Restaurant. The Manitoba railroad restaurant at Osakis will be removed at no dis tant day, and probably to Sauk Cen tre. A meeting of the Board of Trade was held on Friday evening for the purpose of considering the matter and putting forth an effort to secure its location here. Messrs. Barto, Moore and Keller were ap pointed a committee to call upon Mr. Manvel, superintendent ef the Mani toba road, to see what might be done. They went to St. Paul on Monday and had an interview with Messrs. Manvel and Ives, and came back oh Tuesday very well satisfied with their visit. The company is satisfied that a mistake was made in locating the restaurant at Osakis, and ass matter of expediency will remove it. A good man is wanted to operate it. The railroad managers will send someone to look over the situation in a few days, and definitely deter mine. At present they are busily en gaged with the lai’road commission ers in fixing a schedule.of rates. Hamilton-Strong.

On Monday evening while out row ing in the vicinity of Fishermen’s bay, Mr. Jesse Newell discovered a human skeleton. He bad just land ed and was picking some flowers on the lake shore just north of the bay, and on going further up the bank discovered a bone. It appearing to be that of a human being he looked further, and saw protruding from the bank as fir as the shoulder blades the skeleton before mention ed. The Winnebago Indians were here«about thirty years ago, and it is thought by some of our citizens that this is one ot their tribe, a number of whom were burled in that vicinity, which has been exhumed by the washing away of the bank. A well-attended meeting of the Board of Trade was held on Friday evening at the office of the Sauk Valley Land and Loan Company, to consider the proposition of putting forth an effort to secure the location of the Manitoba restaurant in this village, it being understood that it is to be removed from Osakis. It was moved that a committee consist ing of Messrs. Barto, Moore and Kel ler be appointed to confer with the managers of the Manitoba, relative to the removal of the restaurant as indicated. The motion was adopted. The committee was authorized to of fer the company a reasonable sum towaid the expense of making the removal.

Iu connection with the labor squabbles which appear to be the rage just now in almost every trade, it is singular tlmr no one has suggested a trial of the English system, which requires notice on both sides of the termination of an engage ment. The period of the notice varies from seven days to a month. Under no circumstances can a man leave his em ploy without giving notice, except by mu tual consent, with regard to which there is seldom any difficulty in cases of emer gency.* Jf he leaves without notice he is liable to be proceeded against summarily in the local police court, and the dam ages sustained by his late employer art assessed by the stipendiary magistrate, i the amount, with costs, being recover able by distress, with imprisonment in default. On the other hand,* “boss” can not discharge a hand without notice except for gross misconduct, immorality, or the j like, ami it lias even been held that gross insolence does not provide adequate j grounds fur summary dismissal. To evade tins law the boss must pay the dis charged m m fur the period of notice.

Bridal Dowry Aiuong ilia Itoumanlans. The Pall Mall Gazette tells of a able custom existing among the Rouman iaits living in the westerly Carpathians. Every year, at the feast of the Apostles Peter and Paul, a market is held on the crest of the Gaina, from 5,0 W to C,OOO feet above the level of the sea, and here the marriageable girls of the district as semble with their parents ia order to be viewetl and claimed. Mothers, aunts, grandmothers, and various female friends contribute to the dowry, and this com pleted it is carried to the market. Cattle, liees, and other household requisites are added to the dowry. On the Gaina every family occupies a distinct lent, in which the dowry is exhibited, and in which the bride-viewers are expected. The bachelors, too, are accompanied by parents or relatives. The young men bring the best they possess, and each must particularly come with a girdle of gold or silver. After the brides art chosen the public betrothal takes plape The mark of betrothal is not a ring, bu' a beautifully embroidered handkerehie 1 —London Correspondence. Virtues of the Horseback Cure. There is a saying among the Russians that a man who is fond of his horses will not grow old early. The Arab and the Cossack are examples of the truth of the proverb. They genAally live long, en joy robust health, and have no use for liver pads and blue pills. That vigorous octogenarian, David Dudley Field, tells us that he attributes his remarkable vitality to the habit of hoi-seback riding, and if the truth were known, it would doubtless appear that out sturdiest xjld men are those who have been fond of Hie saddle. The taste for equestrian sports and exercise which has lately made such progress in Brooklyn is therefore a hopeful and healthful sign. It is not a mere freak of fashion, but a development in the direction of rational enjoyment and an assurance that the ris ing generation well be less of an indoor and more of an outdoor people. It mean', less headache hereafter, better appetites, stronger lungs, rosier cheeks, brighter eyes, sounder sleep, happier spirits, and a total oblivion of that organ which, ac cording to Sidney Smith, keeps men a good deal lower than the angels—the liver. One Explanation of Decimal Counting. Many use decimals instead of octonals to-day, because in the progress from the finned fish to the fur-limbed amphibian the number of fin-rays on each limb happened to be reduced from eight or ten to five only. Hence most of the higher animals have five fingers or five toes on each extremity; and man in this respect conforms strictly to his pre human arboreal ancestor. If that ancestor had had only four toes, like so many quadrupeds, we might now count by eights or by sixteens; but the accident of his possessing five digits on each limb has saddled us forever with the foolish custom of reckoning every thing either by tens or by twenties. Our most advanced mathematics bear obvi ously on their face the marks of their irrational and savage origin, and more remotely recall the evolution of the race from a many-rayed mud-haunting am phibious progenitor.—Lippincott’s Maga zine. Poisonous Dust la the Throat. Recent experiments have determined the existence of veins in connection. with the bronchial glands. It is, therefore, easy to conjecture how foreign particles may be carried into the general circula tion and set up disease in remote organs. Another reason is thus furnished, if any other were necessary, for insisting on the thorough cleansing and watering of the streets. The dust of city streets abounds in animal life, and the molecu lar activity of these organisms varies ac cording to the height at which the dust is collected. Unfortunately, five feet is the height at which they are most active, about on a level with an ordinary foot passenger’s iniug generation like chap ters in ar./ieui l.i.tvry.
