Tho Niagara Falls Telegraph gives the following account of the recent sui- cide at that place: George W. Knapp, of Uticfl; oommitted suicide here last night by leaping Into the rap- ids. He made his preparations in the most eiireful manner, even tioinjr so fnr as to pro- cure a pistol, with which he evidently intend- ed to shoot any one who should interfere wltn hjtn. Ktiapp arrived hero at S:i)0 last night,on the train from Buffalo, and after seudinfr » telegraph message, went to the International Hotel, where ne had supper. What he did during the remainder of the evening until he took his frightful loap is a mystery. Mr. C. Ci Nusener, of Drunimondsville, Out., and his cousin, Miss Florence M. Evart, who had been viewing the falls from Prospect Park, went to Tugby's bazar, just south of the brMgre wnlch spans the rapids to Goat Island. "The young lady stt down on a long seat on thu balcony which extends along the side of the bazar and over the rapids, and nor companion went inside and entered Into conversation with a young attendant. Very soon atter this, Knapp came along, and what followed was told by Miss Evart to your correspondent, as follows: "Mr. Nusenei-4 with whose family 1 am ft present visiting across the river, and myself came over to the American slrlo of the river, and after spending « short time In Pro»pect Park we went to Tugby's bazar.

It was rather dark at the time nitjVl didn't take particular notice of him. H<»w|ver, 1 should say that he was a tall and rather stout mini of middle age, and wore a dark suit of clothes.

A Fight with Kerosene Lamp* as Weap- ons—One Man Fatally and An- other Dangerously Burned, Somewhat brief mention was made in yestorduy'3 Tribune of si frightful duel be- tween two men armed .with kerosene lamps. One of tho contestants died at the County Hospital yesterday, and the death or' the was expected to follow before to-dny. The Wise is almost unparalleled forfrigiitful atroc- ity. The particular portion of the yard of the Union Iron nnd steel Mills, used lor load ing cars, is lighted, whon the men are working nigiits, by some thirty or forty kerosene lamps. These are of double tin, and contain about a pint of oil each. They are designed for hand use. The wick is Ret in a funnel, which stands about four Inches above the top of the lamp, and it is very well known to those who handle them that when they are upset or turned upe:do down they either explode or the oil runs from them and catches tiro. William Doyle and Thomas Council, tho victims of the Sunday morning duel, (ire old employes in the yard, and must have been perfectly well acquainted with these tacts. Both men had been quar- reling all night about where their lampsshould be placed to throw tho best li(?ht, and tho work- men who hoard these fepats say it wns hard to tell who was right and who wrong. However, Connell was the flrst to hurl a lump tit his op- ponent, and this he did without any other provocation than Doyle's angry words. l->o3"le retaliated byhurling: his lamp at his assailant. The burning oil flew in all directions, and the other workmen were obliged to run to prevent their clothes from taking fire. The fighting men clinched, and their lamps, exploding in quick siu'cossion, deluged them both with burning oil and otherwise injured them. But It was only when their burning clothing was scorching their bodies into a crisp that they ceased the combat.

Xovel Fractional Currencx. It is not generally known that if a SI greenback is neatly cut in two each of the halves is goo t for 50 cents at tho Federal Treasury. The flame prooesa eau be carried on till the bill is divided into tenths without injuring the aliquot value of its parts. This has been sug- gested as an easy way of obtaining small sums to send by mail, now that the extremely convenient fractional cur- rency has disappeared; but it is not likely to bo generally adopted; a hall note being an awkward thing to pass, except at a bank. The popular objec- tion to such fragments cornea down from a time when one-half a banknote was worthless without the other half. It is so to-day in England, and the division of a Bank of Kngiandnote is a freqaent way of insuring its safety when sent by mail. Major I'oweiv, a prominent; offi- cer in the Treasury Department of long experience, proposes that the back of one dollar greenbacks be hereafter di- vided by the device printed upon then into four parts, so as to be cut up at pleasure, each quarter being good in small sums for twenty-five cents. This would enable the community to supply itself with its own fractional currency at pleasure, and it would also probably increase enormously the share of one dollar notes which would never come back to the Treasury.— (Alois.)

Ambler's life. Years ago, to com- mence at the beginning, he started life under the most favorable auspices. A passion for mechanics was fostered by favorable surroundings, and the young man soon developed a latent faculty for invention. Again and again he devised little improvements, but nothing which proved either great as a discovery or as a financial success. At last, however, Ambler discovered a road which seamod to lead to fame and wealth. Filled with sanguine expectations, as are all in- ventors, he commenced his now work. A long period of toil and patient en- deavor succeeded, marked with alter- nate hopes and fears. Failures were frequent, but the inventor laughed at tliscouragements in the hope offut- ure success. At last, however, his funds gave out and he saw despair and failure staring him inthe face. Money must be forthcoming or the investiga- tions would have to cease. At this point Mr. R. M. Whipple became asso- ciated with Atnbler as a partner, and the National Gas and Iron Company was formed in St. Louis. When the secret of the invention was made known toWhipple its importance was at once manifest to him, and he took in another partner, Thomas S. Dicker- son. In the meantime the inventioa was completed. It was a furnace for smelting metals by means of petroleum vapor, produced by the action of super- heated steam. The old tedious meth- ods of smelting by the ordinary proc- esses were to be done away with, and a revolution wrought in this great branch of manufactures. At last it seemed to the hard-working inventor that the long expected success was to be a happy realization. At once ha took steps to get out a patent, but w.is mot at the threshold of his application by a startling discovery. While toiling and studying his two partners had ob- tained patents for his invention, and be was excluded from all nenolits. His delay had been fatal to him. All the work of his lifetime was to go for naught. Tha glory aud tho wealth for which he had striven were completely out of his reach. There was only one way to seek immediate redress, and that was to have the illegal patents canceled. Proceedings were at once instituted in the I'ateut-oilice, and a legal light, which was to last a decade, was begun. There were many vexa- tious delays, and it was necessary to take evidence from all the parties con- cerned. But Ambler proved so conclu- sively that he was really tho inventor that he gained his point. But this first victory did not byany means end tho matter. The oase was taken into the courts. The delays which tho wronged litigant, impatient to be right- ed, had suffered in the Patent Office were nothing to the long and tedious struggle which now commenced. From court to court, fromthe District Justices' to the Supreme tribunal of the United States, the cass was appealed and trans- ferred until Mr. Ambler began almost to despair. But, holding in his hands the canceled patents as a powerful argument in his behalf, ho continued the light, wearisome, discouraging and expensive though it was. Finally, aft- er ten years, he began to see day-light. A special auditor, Mr. E. C. Ingersoll, was appointed by the court to examine into the case and see what was really due Mr. Ambler. A thorough examin- ation of all the aocessible documents showing the amount paid for patent rights to Whipple & Dickerson was made, and the total found to be over $1,250,000. As an equita- ble adjustment i the auditor de- cided that Ambler should be paid one-half of this amount. Therefore, on the 17th of last June Justice Cox ordered the defendants to pay the plaintiff the sum of six hundred and seventy-seven thousand four hundred and thirt3 r -four dollars, and, within thirty days, one thousand three hun- dred and seventy-live shares of the National Gas and Iron Company. Am- bler was thus suddenly placed in the possession of a fortune. But, though a man of sixty years of age, the turn in the tide of his affairs also seemed to turn his brain. With the lirst payment of the money he commenced a series of sprees, or rather one long-continued state of intoxication. At leugth an at- tendant became a necessary companion of his wanderings. His condition be- came worse, aud the possessor of hun- dreds of thousands of dollars found himself in a cell in the station-house. This was well known at the time and referred to in the Sunday Post as fol- lows- " A prominent citizen, whose aggre- gate wealth is over $700,000, spent Fri- day night in a cell at the Central Station-house, Bleeping off a drunk." The sequence to it all came yester- day. Wandering into the Police Court in an intoxicated condition, he abused one of the messengers and M arrest- ed. He was brought out from the cell and charge 1 before Judge Snell with profanity. He was promptly lined five dollars or twenty days in jail, where- upon hecursed the Judge. A sentence of twenty dollars or thirty days in jail and two days in jail additional, without a fine, .vas imposed for contempt of court. Ho was again placed in a cell. Shortly afterward Ambler stepped into the Black Mtria and was driven to jail. Washington, Post. Ladies' Fall and Winter Dresses. The earliest importations of French dresses are made up of shoit dresses for day wear, with very lung trained skirts for full dress; the medium demi- train does not appear in the first in- voices. Very rich fabrics that give the greatest appearance of warmth arc used, such as the polka-dotted velvets, brocaded velvet with large detached figures, and plush, with cloth for plain- er costumes; the warmest colors also appear in abundance, especially in the accessories that form trimmings, though many beautiful aostumes are shown in two tones of the same color, especially when heliotrope or other purples art; emploved. The dull copper reds are very stylish as an illumination for black: heliotrope and lavender arc also effect- ively used with btick. The satin em- ployed for draperies is very soft, and is en Hod Surah satin, though its lustrous surface requires close weaving that conceals the twills that are the special feature of Surah silks. The corsages of new dresses are made with as few seams as possible, and arc therefore of the simplest shapes. The short side forms of the back are used almost with- out exception, though stand mod rtill prefer having two side forms in tho way introduced by Worth several years ago. Skirts of French dresses are fuller tlian they have been made at any time since short skirts wore revived, though they are not made in the classic shapes popular here that depend so en- tirely up*on their fullness that drapery is dispensed with. On the contrary, the first importations show a great deal of drapery very bouffantly arranged, with scarf sashes that pass around the figure, and give the fullness of paniers below the nips. Indeed, sash effects are given in many ways, not only with the gay fabrics of trimmings, but with whole breadths oi the dress material that are. draped quite straight, or else doubled at the lower end without being j cut apart, or perhaps they form one mammoth bow on the left side, and a pointed corner on the right. The front and side gores are clinging, and these are still made the objective points for trimming. For instance, shirring, which has now extended to heavy cloths, will cover the upper naif of the front and side gores, while Delow this will be square points of handkerchiefs, or receding scarfs opening over pleated flounces, or perhaps a series of scarfs of satin will be shirred at intervals across the front gore, and pass under brocaded side breadths that are as flat as panels, but which are-faced with a contrasting color of satin, velvet, ot plush, that makes itself visible without being too conspicuous. The Jersey jauket worn during the summer has given suggestions for some of the newfeatures of oloth and catuel's- hair costumes, auti in some suits the Jersey webbing, like stocking net, is used for the clinging waists or polo- naises of such dresses. For instance, a navy blue costume has a polonaise laced behind made of Jersey webbing, fitted by a middle seam in front, and under-arm seams without darts. The collar and the sash drapery are of blue plush lined with light yellow Surah, while the skirt is blue c'oth laid in kilt pleats. Another costume entirely of blaok has the Jersey polonaise of web- bing, without darts, to which is at- I tached a kilt of black camcl's-hair; a j sash of polka-dotted black satin forms : the bouffant drapery, and conceals the I seam that joins the kilt to the polonaise. Less conspicuous than these dresses, which are meant only for very young I ladies and misses, is the Jersey basque, ! which is fastened iu front, but is based [ upon the Jersey idea of dispensing with U3ele3s seams, and is therefore I made with the French back that has no ! side bodies, while the fronts have but j one dart, though there is often a narrow ! plastron or a slender vest added, which ; compels another seam, though conceal- j ing ft at the same time, and this give3 the fullness required for the bust, which ' is usually made by the second dart. This is handsomely illustrated in a black earners-hair suit that has copper j red satin with black polka dots for I trimming. This gay satin forms a narrow vest not four*inches wid^ down the front of the black basque, also a shirred I round collar so deep as to nearly cover j the shoulders. Abreadth of this satin , is draped like a panier sash on the edge I of tho long, plain basque, which, with its few seams, is made to follow every i outline of the figure from the-'tliroat down low on tho hips. The sash is sliirrud to the front of the basque, and is fastened on the left side under a clus- ter of loops of black satin ribbon that ; is copper rod on the wrong side; the ! sash is spread out wider across the back, and forms an immense bow, with | ends that hang almost to the edge of i the skirt. This skirt has first a silk foundation, which is faced at the bot- tom with camel's-hair, on which is a narrow pleating of red satin, and also one of blaok; beneath this is a balay- euse of white muslin embroidered with red. Tlrs whole silk skirt is then con- cealed by one long kilt pleating of black camel's hair sewed on a few inches below the belt, so that it will not be clumsy around the hips, as that would spoil the fit of the close Jersey basque; this kilting stops just below where the satin pleating borders the foundation skirt of silk. Quite different from these suits are other cloth dresses that are made gay by combining them with tartans or ; Mii'lra's plaids of satin Surah. The i corsage is a habit basque of cloth, ! either olive or seal brown, with shirred plaid Surah passed around the neck and down each side of the front. The cloth skirt is then shirred across the front, and has most bouffant draperies of the plaid Surah arranged in points like handherchiefs at the back, and held by bows of many loops of green satin ribbon, with red onthe reverse side. Very handsome dresses for the demi- season are shown of black Surah satin, trimmed with many pleatings of the same, much jet embroidery on lace, jet fringe, with facings and balayeuse flounce of heliotrope Surah. The mouehoir costumes of medium weight of wool are for autumn wear, and are made in most bouffant styles. For later in the season, cloth dresses are oouabined with striped velvet or plush, and there are velvet costumes of new and elegant designs. Aprune vel- vet suit is embroidered all over with polka dots of the same shade, and trimmed with shirred Surah satin scarfs that cross the front and extend down tho sides in panels. The bouffaut dra- pery of the back is formed by the Su- rah arranged in sash effects, and bor- dered with tho velvot. The waists of such suits are single-breasted coats of the velvet, with deep shirred Surah col- lar, or else a broad Byron collar of the velvet piped with Surah. Large square pockets on the sides. In other cos- tumes the Surah satin forms the great- coat, with Louis Quatorze vest of bro- caded velvet, in which the detached flowers are as large as a lady's hand. Rich passementerie ornaments trim the paneled sides of suoh dresses, and a row of chenille fringe often edges the panel where it falls ou the border flounce.—Harper's Bazar.

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL. —Andover Theological Seminary has decided to lengthen its term of study from three to four years. —The Presbyterian Church has 631,- 9M children in ite Sunday-schools, showing fin increase of over 17,000 the past year. —There are nearly nine hundred Young Men's Christian Associations in this country, five in New Zealand and one in Palestine. —-He said a sensible thing, speaking of punctuality at church, who re- marked: "It i.<* a part of my religion not to disturb other people's devo- tions." —Bishop Harris (Methodist) declares Mexico to be tho hardest mission field in the world, and he has visited nearly all the fields of the world. —A society is attached to Mr. Spur- goon's London tabernacle to furnish clothing to nuedv persons add their families. It distributed $1,200 worth of goods last year. —The Belknap (N. H.) Congrega- tional Association has issuci an em- phatic declaration against divorce, "ex- cept for the single valid 3criptural cause," aud has called upon the min- isters and associations to take a stand on the subject. —Bishop Herzcg., according to a Geneva correspondent, has left Switzer- land for the United States with the ob- ject of promo i ing a scheme for tbe fed- eration of all the Christian churches in the universe. He will arrive in time to attend the Presbyterian Ecumenical Council at Philadelphia. —The people of San Lorenzo, Cal., be- longing to different churches, seeing that none of their denominations were strong enough to sustain a separate or- ganization, agreed to unite into an un- denominational chmvh. They adopted a creed which is described as being "ia a general way, the Apostles' crped ex- panded," have kept out of debt, and are flourishing. —The Presbyterian Theological Sem- inary at Columbia, S. C , which was suspended last spring for want of funds, enjoys brighter prospects. It has re- ceived $i,000 from what had been given up as a bad debt, and is now getting interest from an investment of $ 10,000 which had not yielded anyincome for vears. It has also made a considerable reduction in its floating debt. —It has often been said in England that too much was spent on education. But in Mr. Mundella's statement, intro- ducing the estimates for education to the British House of Commons, he showed that, while rich England pays $10.50 per scholar in the board schools, poor Scotland pays $10.87; and, while England pays in the voluntary schools $8.52 per scholar, Scotland pays $;>.o0; BO that the poorer country, valuing education most, pays more for it than the richer country. So in feos paid by the parent Scotland pays considerably more per pupil tlian England. So Scot- land pays more attention to the educa- tion of tho older scholars, and Mr. Mundella shows that England needs to learn important lessons from north of the Tweed. The Tricks of Jockeys. A writer for Harper's WeeM'j has been having a talk with Mr. Bishop, a well- known horse-dealer in New York City, and the following is a part of what the dealer told him: ' "'Tricks?' There isn't any end to them. Ii you want to buy a horse, don't believe your own brother. Take no man's word for it. Your eye is your market. Don't buy a horse in harness. Unhitch him and take everything off but the halter and lead him around.' If he has a corn, o.r is stiff, or has any other failing you cau see it. Let him go by himself a little ways, aud if he staves right into anything you may know he's stone blind. Nomatter how clear and bright his eyes are, he can't see any more than a bat. Back him up, too. Some horses show their weak- ness or tricks that way when they don't in any other. "But be as smart as you can, and you'll set caught sometimes. Even an expert gets stuck. A horse may look ever so nice, and go a mile a minute, and yet have fits, for instance. There isn't a live man could tell it till some- thing happens. Or he may have a weak back. Give him the whip and oft" he goes for a mile or two; then, all of a sudden, he siis right down in the road. After a rest he gets up and starts again, but he soon sits down for good, aud nothing but a derrick could raise him. There are sharpers in New York who make a business of selling such horses. After the sale they have their agents slyly follow the buyer, and, when the final breakdown comes, they step up, and, after expressing sympathy for him, buy the horse back ao-ain for a mere sonsr, only to sell him again at a fancy figure to the next greenhorn who may come along. Even a horse with the heaves may be doc- tored up so you can't tell him. They feed him on wet grain for a while, and then, when they show off, drive him so smartly that you can't see there's anything wrong. " Do you know what a dummy is? You don't? Well, I'll tell you. He's a horse that don't know anything. His brain is gone wrong. Adark stall and overfeeding have ruined his digostion, and that has affected his brain." Drive him out a ways, and pretty soon he'll jerk his head around and pull right straight on one line. You can't hold him; it's no use to try. The first thing you know he's damped you in a ditch, or smashed you up against a lamp-post. Tie him inthe stable, and he'll back up till he breaks every halter you put on him. Stretch a rope across the end of the stall so he can't back out and he'll climb up the wall. "Maybe you don't believe it, but it's so. 1 have seen one go clear up stairs; and once I saw one go out of a second- story window, and another walk off a dock into the river. Watch him when he's eating, and you'll often see him go to sleep with tho feed in his month. He doesn't know; he's just a fool. I bought one of these idiots when I was a beginner in the business. He broke everything in the stiblo, and theu wont up the wall like a lunatic. Afterward, one of the boys that groomed him for the man I bought him of admiiUMl that the animal was 'ju-<i a !-'>e-tli bit dumb. 1 I can tell one how the minute I see him. He steps tin••ommonly high. In most cases, when you seo a horse do that, be sure he's a dummy. "•What do we do with the horses we get stuck on?' Se.nd them to the auction, where buyers take all the risks. No reputable dealer 1 ever sells a bad one any other way. It doesn't pay to do it. " I could talk all day about these things, only your paper is t'ull now, I giie»s. and' I'll Stop. I>.:1 don't urn eVer buy a horse, young nun. unless you know how to do it.'

Over tbe Falls at Niagara—A DeliberateSuicide.

Tho Niagara Falls Telegraph givesthe following account of the recent sui-cide at that place:

George W. Knapp, of Uticfl; oommittedsuicide here last night by leaping Into the rap-ids. He made his preparations in the mosteiireful manner, even tioinjr so fnr as to pro-cure a pistol, with which he evidently intend-ed to shoot any one who should interfere wltnhjtn. Ktiapp arrived hero at S:i)0 last night,onthe train from Buffalo, and after seudinfr »telegraph message, went to the InternationalHotel, where ne had supper. What he didduring the remainder of the evening until hetook his frightful loap is a mystery. Mr. C. CiNusener, of Drunimondsville, Out., and hiscousin, Miss Florence M. Evart, who had beenviewing the falls from Prospect Park, went toTugby's bazar, just south of the brMgre wnlchspans the rapids to Goat Island. "The younglady stt down on a long seat on thu balconywhich extends along the side of the bazarand over the rapids, and nor companion wentinside and entered Into conversation with ayoung attendant. Very soon atter this, Knappcame along, and what followed was told byMiss Evart to your correspondent, as follows:

"Mr. Nusenei-4 with whose family 1 am ftpresent visiting across the river, and myselfcame over to the American slrlo of the river,and after spending « short time In Pro»pectPark we went to Tugby's bazar. He and 1sat down on tho seat ulong the balcony, andmy cousin went into the bazar, and stood intho door with his back toward me, engiiged Inconversation with Miss Mary Haney. 1 satthere about three minutes, when tbe mancame along. It was rather dark at the timenitjVl didn't take particular notice of him.H<»w|ver, 1 should say that he was a tall andrather stout mini of middle age, and wore adark suit of clothes. He wore n full beard,which seemed to be slightly tingrrt with gray,lip sat down ten fret away fmm me, untt np-i:e ired to be iu deep ttoiitfht. Ho Bat thereabout three minutes, ami then went to theextreme corner of the balcony, ten feet fur-ther away. He sat down, pulled out n diary,hastily soribbled » few words, then tore oui Uieleaf and pinned tho note inside of his coat, onthe right side. He Then removed the ga' nit ntand took off nia vest. He (lid not sc-i m to leexcited, nud I thought, that probably | e h idb" n walking, and, being heated, was tryingto cool off. However, I continued t> wntcdhim. He stopped a moment, as though. hold-In^ communion with himself, and tiieu re-moved his cuffs. He la d his hat < n top of theclothes, and, mouniiny the railing, stood therea mimic. TUep, drawing a pistol, he raisedlioih bftnds above his he^d an i tired a shotwith one. Just us he ditlthishc hPiit his kneesand trave the Iri^htful leap into tho rapids. Iturned j vise then, So frightened that I knewnot what to flu. I just uninsured to yell, andCtfarley s'nd others C'me Instantly up."

Tao:.-p wlio ran out on the balcony snythiitI'ne limn was drowned before he rcmliod thouwlul precipice, eighty rods awny. und tht4the body slot into the darkness and down thefe.'thing sibyps like a ball shot from a eonnon.Xocry »as heard from the suicide who nodeliberately and determinedly ended liis ca-reer. A crowd soon gathered arouncl. Po-liceman Ralph Bailey took possession of thede-id man's effects, which were found neatlyiolded and pile;' upon th3 scat The notopinned on the coat read:

A Fight with Kerosene Lamp* as Weap-ons—One Man Fatally and An-

other Dangerously Burned,

Somewhat brief mention was made inyestorduy'3 Tribune of si frightful duel be-tween two men armed .with kerosene lamps.One of tho contestants died at the CountyHospital yesterday, and the death or' thewas expected to follow before to-dny. TheWise is almost unparalleled forfrigiitful atroc-ity. The particular portion of the yard of theUnion Iron nnd steel Mills, used lor load ingcars, is lighted, whon the men areworking nigiits, by some thirty or fortykerosene lamps. These are of doubletin, and contain about a pint of oileach. They are designed for hand use. Thewick is Ret in a funnel, which stands aboutfour Inches above the top of the lamp, and it isvery well known to those who handle themthat when they are upset or turned upe:dodown they either explode or the oil runs fromthem and catches tiro. William Doyle andThomas Council, tho victims of the Sundaymorning duel, (ire old employes in the yard,and must have been perfectly well acquaintedwith these tacts. Both men had been quar-reling all night about where their lampsshouldbe placed to throw tho best li(?ht, and tho work-men who hoard these fepats say it wns hard totell who was right and who wrong. However,Connell was the flrst to hurl a lump tit his op-ponent, and this he did without any otherprovocation than Doyle's angry words. l->o3"leretaliated by hurling: his lamp at his assailant.The burning oil flew in all directions, and theother workmen were obliged to run to preventtheir clothes from taking fire. The fightingmen clinched, and their lamps, exploding inquick siu'cossion, deluged them both withburning oil and otherwise injured them. ButIt was only when their burning clothing wasscorching their bodies into a crisp thatthey ceased the combat. Their fellow-workmen rushed to their assistance, undseveral were badly burned alout the hands intheir praiseworthy endear or to save tho livesof the rwb men by teftrinsf from them thoburning cloililnpr.

A Poor Inventor's Sudden ProsperityProves Too MncJj for Him.

Xovel Fractional Currencx.

It is not generally known that if a SIgreenback is neatly cut in two each ofthe halves is goo t for 50 cents at thoFederal Treasury. The flame prooesaeau be carried on till the bill is dividedinto tenths without injuring the aliquotvalue of its parts. This has been sug-gested as an easy way of obtainingsmall sums to send by mail, now thatthe extremely convenient fractional cur-rency has disappeared; but it is notlikely to bo generally adopted; a hallnote being an awkward thing to pass,except at a bank. The popular objec-tion to such fragments cornea downfrom a time when one-half a banknotewas worthless without the other half. Itis so to-day in England, and the divisionof a Bank of Kngiandnote is a freqaentway of insuring its safety when sent bymail. Major I'oweiv, a prominent; offi-cer in the Treasury Department of longexperience, proposes that the back ofone dollar greenbacks be hereafter di-vided by the device printed upon theninto four parts, so as to be cut up atpleasure, each quarter being good insmall sums for twenty-five cents. Thiswould enable the community to supplyitself with its own fractional currencyat pleasure, and it would also probablyincrease enormously the share of onedollar notes which would never comeback to the Treasury.—(Alois.)

Once a brilliant inventor, then a per-sistent litigaut, suing for the rights ofwhich he had been defrauded, madesuddenly rich by winning his suit, andnow an inmate of the common jail forintoxication and contempt of court,Such are the brief chapters of AuguslirlJ. Ambler's life. Years ago, to com-mence at the beginning, he started lifeunder the most favorable auspices. Apassion for mechanics was fostered byfavorable surroundings, and the youngman soon developed a latent faculty forinvention. Again and again he devisedlittle improvements, but nothing whichproved either great as a discovery or asa financial success. At last, however,Ambler discovered a road which seamodto lead to fame and wealth. Filled withsanguine expectations, as are all in-ventors, he commenced his now work.A long period of toil and patient en-deavor succeeded, marked with alter-nate hopes and fears. Failures werefrequent, but the inventor laughedat tliscouragements in the hope of fut-ure success. At last, however, hisfunds gave out and he saw despair andfailure staring him in the face. Moneymust be forthcoming or the investiga-tions would have to cease. At thispoint Mr. R. M. Whipple became asso-ciated with Atnbler as a partner, andthe National Gas and Iron Companywas formed in St. Louis. When thesecret of the invention was madeknown to Whipple its importance wasat once manifest to him, and he tookin another partner, Thomas S. Dicker-son. In the meantime the inventioawas completed. It was a furnace forsmelting metals by means of petroleumvapor, produced by the action of super-heated steam. The old tedious meth-ods of smelting by the ordinary proc-esses were to be done away with, and arevolution wrought in this great branchof manufactures. At last it seemedto the hard-working inventor thatthe long expected success wasto be a happy realization. At once hatook steps to get out a patent, but w.ismot at the threshold of his applicationby a startling discovery. While toilingand studying his two partners had ob-tained patents for his invention, and bewas excluded from all nenolits. Hisdelay had been fatal to him. All thework of his lifetime was to go fornaught. Tha glory aud tho wealth forwhich he had striven were completelyout of his reach. There was only oneway to seek immediate redress, andthat was to have the illegal patentscanceled. Proceedings were at onceinstituted in the I'ateut-oilice, and alegal light, which was to last a decade,was begun. There were many vexa-tious delays, and it was necessary totake evidence from all the parties con-cerned. But Ambler proved so conclu-sively that he was really tho inventorthat he gained his point. But this firstvictory did not by any means end thomatter. The oase was taken intothe courts. The delays which thowronged litigant, impatient to be right-ed, had suffered in the Patent Officewere nothing to the long and tediousstruggle which now commenced. Fromcourt to court, fromthe District Justices'to the Supreme tribunal of the UnitedStates, the cass was appealed and trans-ferred until Mr. Ambler began almostto despair. But, holding in his handsthe canceled patents as a powerfulargument in his behalf, ho continuedthe light, wearisome, discouraging andexpensive though it was. Finally, aft-er ten years, he began to see day-light.A special auditor, Mr. E. C. Ingersoll,was appointed by the court to examineinto the case and see what was reallydue Mr. Ambler. A thorough examin-ation of all the aocessible documentsshowing the amount paid for patentrights to Whipple & Dickerson wasmade, and the total found tobe over $1,250,000. As an equita-ble adjustment i the auditor de-cided that Ambler should be paidone-half of this amount. Therefore,on the 17th of last June Justice Coxordered the defendants to pay theplaintiff the sum of six hundred andseventy-seven thousand four hundredand thirt3r-four dollars, and, withinthirty days, one thousand three hun-dred and seventy-live shares of theNational Gas and Iron Company. Am-bler was thus suddenly placed in thepossession of a fortune. But, thougha man of sixty years of age, the turnin the tide of his affairs also seemed toturn his brain. With the lirst paymentof the money he commenced a series ofsprees, or rather one long-continuedstate of intoxication. At leugth an at-tendant became a necessary companionof his wanderings. His condition be-came worse, aud the possessor of hun-dreds of thousands of dollars foundhimself in a cell in the station-house.This was well known at the time andreferred to in the Sunday Post as fol-lows-

" A prominent citizen, whose aggre-gate wealth is over $700,000, spent Fri-day night in a cell at the CentralStation-house, Bleeping off a drunk."

The sequence to it all came yester-day. Wandering into the Police Courtin an intoxicated condition, he abusedone of the messengers and M arrest-ed. He was brought out from the celland charge 1 before Judge Snell withprofanity. He was promptly lined fivedollars or twenty days in jail, where-upon he cursed the Judge. A sentenceof twenty dollars or thirty days in jailand two days in jail additional, withouta fine, .vas imposed for contempt ofcourt. Ho was again placed in a cell.Shortly afterward Ambler stepped intothe Black M tria and was driven to jail.— Washington, Post.

Ladies' Fall and Winter Dresses.

The earliest importations of Frenchdresses are made up of shoit dressesfor day wear, with very lung trainedskirts for full dress; the medium demi-train does not appear in the first in-voices. Very rich fabrics that give thegreatest appearance of warmth arcused, such as the polka-dotted velvets,brocaded velvet with large detachedfigures, and plush, with cloth for plain-er costumes; the warmest colors alsoappear in abundance, especially in theaccessories that form trimmings, thoughmany beautiful aostumes are shown intwo tones of the same color, especiallywhen heliotrope or other purples art;emploved. The dull copper reds arevery stylish as an illumination for black:heliotrope and lavender arc also effect-ively used with btick. The satin em-ployed for draperies is very soft, and isen Hod Surah satin, though its lustroussurface requires close weaving thatconceals the twills that are the specialfeature of Surah silks. The corsages ofnew dresses are made with as fewseams as possible, and arc therefore ofthe simplest shapes. The short sideforms of the back are used almost with-out exception, though stand modrtill prefer having two side forms in thoway introduced by Worth several yearsago. Skirts of French dresses are

fuller tlian they have been made at anytime since short skirts wore revived,though they are not made in the classicshapes popular here that depend so en-tirely up*on their fullness that draperyis dispensed with. On the contrary,the first importations show a great dealof drapery very bouffantly arranged,with scarf sashes that pass around thefigure, and give the fullness of paniersbelow the nips. Indeed, sash effectsare given in many ways, not only withthe gay fabrics of trimmings, but withwhole breadths oi the dress materialthat are. draped quite straight, or elsedoubled at the lower end without being jcut apart, or perhaps they form onemammoth bow on the left side, and apointed corner on the right. The frontand side gores are clinging, and theseare still made the objective points fortrimming. For instance, shirring,which has now extended to heavycloths, will cover the upper naif of thefront and side gores, while Delow thiswill be square points of handkerchiefs,or receding scarfs opening over pleatedflounces, or perhaps a series of scarfsof satin will be shirred at intervalsacross the front gore, and pass underbrocaded side breadths that are as flatas panels, but which are-faced with acontrasting color of satin, velvet, otplush, that makes itself visible withoutbeing too conspicuous.

The Jersey jauket worn during thesummer has given suggestions for someof the new features of oloth and catuel's-hair costumes, auti in some suits theJersey webbing, like stocking net, isused for the clinging waists or polo-naises of such dresses. For instance,a navy blue costume has a polonaiselaced behind made of Jersey webbing,fitted by a middle seam in front, andunder-arm seams without darts. Thecollar and the sash drapery are of blueplush lined with light yellow Surah,while the skirt is blue c'oth laid in kiltpleats. Another costume entirely ofblaok has the Jersey polonaise of web-bing, without darts, to which is at-

I tached a kilt of black camcl's-hair; aj sash of polka-dotted black satin forms: the bouffant drapery, and conceals theI seam that joins the kilt to the polonaise.Less conspicuous than these dresses,which are meant only for very young

I ladies and misses, is the Jersey basque,! which is fastened iu front, but is based[ upon the Jersey idea of dispensingwith U3ele3s seams, and is therefore

I made with the French back that has no! side bodies, while the fronts have butj one dart, though there is often a narrow! plastron or a slender vest added, which; compels another seam, though conceal-j ing ft at the same time, and this give3the fullness required for the bust, which

' is usually made by the second dart.This is handsomely illustrated in ablack earners-hair suit that has copper

j red satin with black polka dots forI trimming. This gay satin forms a narrowvest not four*inches wid^ down the frontof the black basque, also a shirred

I round collar so deep as to nearly coverj the shoulders. A breadth of this satin, is draped like a panier sash on the edgeI of tho long, plain basque, which, withits few seams, is made to follow every

i outline of the figure from the-'tliroatdown low on tho hips. The sash issliirrud to the front of the basque, andis fastened on the left side under a clus-ter of loops of black satin ribbon that

; is copper rod on the wrong side; the! sash is spread out wider across theback, and forms an immense bow, with

| ends that hang almost to the edge ofi the skirt. This skirt has first a silkfoundation, which is faced at the bot-tom with camel's-hair, on which is anarrow pleating of red satin, and alsoone of blaok; beneath this is a balay-euse of white muslin embroidered withred. Tlrs whole silk skirt is then con-cealed by one long kilt pleating ofblack camel's hair sewed on a fewinches below the belt, so that it willnot be clumsy around the hips, as thatwould spoil the fit of the close Jerseybasque; this kilting stops just belowwhere the satin pleating borders thefoundation skirt of silk.

Quite different from these suits areother cloth dresses that are made gayby combining them with tartans or

; Mii'lra's plaids of satin Surah. Thei corsage is a habit basque of cloth,! either olive or seal brown, with shirredplaid Surah passed around the neckand down each side of the front. Thecloth skirt is then shirred across thefront, and has most bouffant draperiesof the plaid Surah arranged in pointslike handherchiefs at the back, and heldby bows of many loops of green satinribbon, with red on the reverse side.

Very handsome dresses for the demi-season are shown of black Surah satin,trimmed with many pleatings of thesame, much jet embroidery on lace, jetfringe, with facings and balayeuseflounce of heliotrope Surah. Themouehoir costumes of medium weightof wool are for autumn wear, and aremade in most bouffant styles.

For later in the season, cloth dressesare oouabined with striped velvet orplush, and there are velvet costumes ofnew and elegant designs. A prune vel-vet suit is embroidered all over withpolka dots of the same shade, andtrimmed with shirred Surah satin scarfsthat cross the front and extend downtho sides in panels. The bouffaut dra-pery of the back is formed by the Su-rah arranged in sash effects, and bor-dered with tho velvot. The waists ofsuch suits are single-breasted coats ofthe velvet, with deep shirred Surah col-lar, or else a broad Byron collar of thevelvet piped with Surah. Large squarepockets on the sides. In other cos-tumes the Surah satin forms the great-coat, with Louis Quatorze vest of bro-caded velvet, in which the detachedflowers are as large as a lady's hand.Rich passementerie ornaments trim thepaneled sides of suoh dresses, and arow of chenille fringe often edges thepanel where it falls ou the borderflounce.—Harper's Bazar.

—The Presbyterian Theological Sem-inary at Columbia, S. C , which wassuspended last spring for want of funds,enjoys brighter prospects. It has re-ceived $i,000 from what had been givenup as a bad debt, and is now gettinginterest from an investment of $ 10,000which had not yielded any income forvears. It has also made a considerablereduction in its floating debt.

—It has often been said in Englandthat too much was spent on education.But in Mr. Mundella's statement, intro-ducing the estimates for education tothe British House of Commons, heshowed that, while rich England pays$10.50 per scholar in the board schools,poor Scotland pays $10.87; and, whileEngland pays in the voluntary schools$8.52 per scholar, Scotland pays $;>.o0;BO that the poorer country, valuingeducation most, pays more for it thanthe richer country. So in feos paid bythe parent Scotland pays considerablymore per pupil tlian England. So Scot-land pays more attention to the educa-tion of tho older scholars, and Mr.Mundella shows that England needs tolearn important lessons from north ofthe Tweed.

The Tricks of Jockeys.

A writer for Harper's WeeM'j has beenhaving a talk with Mr. Bishop, a well-known horse-dealer in New York City,and the following is a part of what thedealer told him:' " 'Tricks? ' There isn't any end to

them. Ii you want to buy a horse,don't believe your own brother. Takeno man's word for it. Your eye is yourmarket. Don't buy a horse in harness.Unhitch him and take everything offbut the halter and lead him around.'If he has a corn, o.r is stiff, or has anyother failing you cau see it. Let himgo by himself a little ways, aud if hestaves right into anything you mayknow he's stone blind. No matter howclear and bright his eyes are, he can'tsee any more than a bat. Back himup, too. Some horses show their weak-ness or tricks that way when they don'tin any other.

"But be as smart as you can, andyou'll set caught sometimes. Even anexpert gets stuck. A horse may lookever so nice, and go a mile a minute,and yet have fits, for instance. Thereisn't a live man could tell it till some-thing happens. Or he may have aweak back. Give him the whip andoft" he goes for a mile or two; then, allof a sudden, he siis right down in theroad. After a rest he gets up andstarts again, but he soon sits down forgood, aud nothing but a derrick couldraise him. There are sharpers in NewYork who make a business of sellingsuch horses. After the sale they havetheir agents slyly follow the buyer,and, when the final breakdown comes,they step up, and, after expressingsympathy for him, buy the horse backao-ain for a mere sonsr, only to sell himagain at a fancy figure to the nextgreenhorn who may come along. Evena horse with the heaves may be doc-tored up so you can't tell him. Theyfeed him on wet grain for a while,and then, when they show off, drivehim so smartly that you can't see there'sanything wrong.

" Do you know what a dummy is?You don't? Well, I'll tell you. He's ahorse that don't know anything. Hisbrain is gone wrong. A dark stall andoverfeeding have ruined his digostion,and that has affected his brain." Drivehim out a ways, and pretty soon he'lljerk his head around and pull rightstraight on one line. You can't holdhim; it's no use to try. The first thingyou know he's damped you in a ditch,or smashed you up against a lamp-post.Tie him in the stable, and he'll back uptill he breaks every halter you put onhim. Stretch a rope across the end ofthe stall so he can't back out and he'llclimb up the wall.

"Maybe you don't believe it, but it'sso. 1 have seen one go clear up stairs;and once I saw one go out of a second-story window, and another walk off adock into the river. Watch him whenhe's eating, and you'll often see him goto sleep with tho feed in his month.He doesn't know; he's just a fool. Ibought one of these idiots when I wasa beginner in the business. He brokeeverything in the stiblo, and theu wontup the wall like a lunatic. Afterward,one of the boys that groomed him forthe man I bought him of admiiUMl thatthe animal was 'ju-<i a !-'>e-tli bitdumb.1 I can tell one how the minuteI see him. He steps tin••ommonly high.In most cases, when you seo a horse dothat, be sure he's a dummy.

"•What do we do with the horseswe get stuck on?' Se.nd them to theauction, where buyers take all therisks. No reputable dealer1 ever sells abad one any other way. It doesn'tpay to do it.

" I could talk all day about thesethings, only your paper is t'ull now, Igiie»s. and' I'll Stop. I>.:1 don't urneVer buy a horse, young n u n . unlessyou know how to do it.'

Second Representative Convention-The Democratic Convention for the second pep

resentative district, will he held at the court-house in the city of Ann Arbor, on Tuesday,Oct.5, 18K0 at '.' o'clock P. K., to nominate a eand*date for representative in the state legislatureand to transact such other business as mayproperly come before the convention. The sev-eral townships and wards will be entitled to thesame number of delegates as they were at thecountyConvention.

Edmund Clancy, )Hascal Laraway, > Committee.Edward Duffy, )

It will not do to nominate Chus. S.Gregory for representative in the thirddistrict.

1st, Because he is a chronic office seek-ar.

2d, Because he ia a traitor to his party,stabbing democrats ia the bask when hecannot beat them in open fight.

3rd, Because he is a grasping,avariciousskinflint, never letting go after he hasonce got his grip on a poor man, until hehas drained his last dollar.

4th, Because he is a know-nothing insentiment His feelings to our Irish fel-low citizens are well known; and he hasbeen heard to say, "d—n the Dutch, wewould be better off without them." Potthese and many other, some of themweightier reasons, Charles S. Gregorywill not do to be nominated for represen-tative.

Plaisted is elected governor of Maine,over Davis (republican) by nearly 200 majority.

The Post and Tribune yesterday, ac-knowledged the defeat of the republicanparty in Maine.

We publish in another column a briefbiographical notice of the Hon. W. 11.Waldby, the democratic nominee for con-cress in this district.

At a "Hoppers" meeting recently heldin Pittsburgh, Pa., the officers who pre-sided were formerly republicans, andthere were 100 vice-presidents.

Geo. F. Robison.of Detroit, will addressthe Hancock club next Saturday eveningOct. 2, at the courthouse. Let there bea full attendance of the members.

The republican party was organized in1856 within the shadow of the Michiganstate prison. Is it any wonder, conceivedas it was in sin and brought forth ininiquity, that the party is corrupt?

The greenback ticket in this county issimply a figure head. There never was atime when the party stood any chance ofelecting their men in this democraticstronghold, and they should have senseenough to know it.

It is hardly the thing for a man to goroaming through the state of Michigan,abusing honest democrats, and callingthem rebels and traitors, when lie him-self is known to have lived out of thedemocratic party for years.

The Ypsilantian accuses the trampprinter of stealing his editorials from theNew York Sun, Dana's paper. Didn'tyou know, brother Woodruff, that thetramp is looked upon here as the greatestnews thief in the country? THE DEMOCHAT named him "Clippings" somemonths ago, by which appellation he isknown.

Frazer did n't draw worth a cent in Ypsilanti last Friday night, although hiscoming had been announced through theCommercial and by. tlamiug posters. Itwas to be a republican meeting, but onlyabout 150 persons condescended to attendand a number of them were democratswho had a curiosity to see the great poli-tical acrobat, in the role of a greenbackprohibition republican reformer. Theywent, they saw, they heard him, and amore disgusted small crowd probablynever got together before in this county.

The miserable, lousy devils, who at-tempt to lire I lie northern heart by publi.shing such damnable stuff about thesouth and her people, and which is reiter-ated day after day by the radical pressand republican stump speakers, shows towhat desperation they are driven. It wilonly reflect on themselves, for the greatmass of the reading, thinking public be-lieve all such twiddle to be as false as hell.The paper that publishes it for truth liesand the man who reiterates it from thestump, is a sneaking, cowardly villain.

The tramp printer lias his piece learned,and hu will soon go forth to speak it in anumber of places in this county. Per-haps he could be induced to declaim onthe night of the meeting of the Hancockand English club. His speech is said toconsist of a number of stolen editorialsfrom New York papers, which he hascommitted to memory. This notoriousplagiarist, whose sheet is looked upon asa poor apology for a paper, has damage<the democratic cause in this county alleast one hundred votes. The candidateson the democratic ticket svith whom wehave conversed, look upon the tramp inabout the same light as we do, and sometime ago wrote him down an ass.

The Adrian correspondent of the FreePress writes that "the prospects of Mr.Waldby's election over Willits growbrighter daily. From every part of thedistrict come assurances of republicansupport from reputable well-to-do busi-ness men, who have become utterly disgusled with Willits' course, and with hismonument of broken promises that rearsitself aloft in every portion of the district.Even from the Ohio line old friends, re-publicans, come and pledge themselves tclabor with the Michigan farmers and others living in the southern part of thecounty. The republicans hero are doingnothing for Willits, and with their presesfeeling it is not to be wondered at."

Edward King, of Ypsilanti town, whohas been nominated by the democrats olthe first representative district, as a can-didate for representative, was born inLondon, England. He came to thiscountry when a small boy and for fouryears lived in New York city. He afterwards came west and located in Ypsilanti,where lie \v;ts engaged in business unti12 years ago, when he moved upon a farmin the township of Ypsilanti. He has beena successful business man and farmer. In187i lie was nominated for representative,against E. D. Lay, of Ypsilanti town.Ann Arbor city and town were then inthe first district. The republican major-ity that year was over 300. and Mr. Kingwas only defeated by 03 votes. He is aspopular to-day as six years ago, and thedemocrats of the first district feel confi-dent that he can lay out Capt. Allen, therepublican nominee.

Some days ago the Adrian Times and theChicago Inter Ocean, stated that M. Cb.it-endon, of the former place, had come outfor Garfield. It was a Ik and made out ofwhole cloth, as the following letter fromMr. C. goes to prove:

"I am informed that a report is in cir-culation to the effect that I have changedmy life long political views and am nowan ardent supporter of Garfield and Ar-thur; this is to deny any such imputations.1 have the utmost faith in our gallantstandard bearer. I have confidence inthe great part}' and its principles, believing as I always have, that it and it on-h/ is the only true protector of the rightsof the people and the producing class.

I shall, therefore, vote for the true andloyal representative of the people, W. S.Hancock, whose election I feel confidentof.

In order to bolster up their sinkingcause, the republicans are obliged to lienot a little but a good deal. How wasit about the Maine election? The questionis casiiy answered.

F. M. Holloway,who was nominated bythe recent democratic state convention,for the office of governor, in reply to a

etter front Win. D. Wilkins, the presi-dent of the convention, notifying him oflis nomination, writes that gentleman asollows:

"Permit me,through you,to express myirofound thanks to the democracy of the•itatc for the high honor conferred; it isiighly appreciated from the fact that the

nomination has come unsolicited by me.Weighing well the duties and responsi-

bilities attaching to the office, and consid-ring the fact that this is but the second

time in the history of our state where thenomination for the office has been ten-dered to one actively engaged in tilline;,he soil, I accept the nomination so grace-fully tendered in the spirit in which itwas made, and I assure you, as I do theconservative representatives of the peo-ple in that convention assembled, that inplacing me before the electors of thestate for that honorable position, it wasntended to honor, not me, but the large•hiss of our fellow citizens, that I, in an

humble way, represent.Should 1 be elected to the exalted posi-

tion of Chief Magistrate of this greatstate, it will be my endeavor to emulatethose who have preceded me in that highoffice, and approach as near as may be totheir virtues.

In a time of profound peace like thepiesent, the duties of the Executive ofthe state of Michigan as defined by theconstitution, are mostly embraced in sec-tions 5, 6 and 8 of article 5, and it ia inthe discharge of the duties defined in thosesections that the happiness and prosper-ity of our people of all classes, conditionsand industries are brought more directlyunder his care.

It will be my study, while in the per-formance of the duties defined in thosesections, to conduct the affairs of statethat no industry shall suffer at the expense of another. "That the laws befaithfully executed" in the spirit of liber-ality, justice and equity, constantly bear-ing in mind that the true excellence of allgovernment is that which brings thegreatest good to the largest number.

The declaration of principles adoptedby the convention recently held at Cin-cinnati, as well as those adopted at De-troit by the convention that placed me innomination, have my most cordial sup-port.

HON, WILLIAM H. WALDBY.

His Candidacy for Congress in the Sec-ond District.

The convention for the Second Congres-sional district of Michigan, which met atManchester August 24th, was one of themost harmonious and unanimous gather-ings of the kind that perhaps ever assem-bled in Michigan. There were no "rings"or "cliques" to be satisfied or crushed.The convention came together and with itthepulse of the people of the entire districtwhich has become so restless under theold party rule. The members of the con-rentiou came together with but one pur-pose, and that was to put in nominat.on aman for the important position who notonly embodied all the requisites for thehonorable and responsible office of repre-sentative in congress, but also one whoshould stand before the people with agenuine, solid, unquestioned and unblem-ished character as a man and a citizen.It seemed to be a necessity that a manshould be found who could stand beforehis constituents in the light of a true rep-resentative, coming from the masses,without taint, and without having beenput in training by a set of men to furthersome pet scheme or hobby, but one ofwhom it can be truly said "the office hatsought the man" and who, if elected, wij.have in view only the best interests of thedistrict. Such a man was found in Wil-liam H. Waldby, of Adrian, who accededto the unanimous wish of the conventionand accepted the nomination with reluc-tance, and without doubt at a great sacri-fice of personal interest. Though notseeking or desiring the place, Mr. Wald-by at once goes activety into the canvass,and is already one of the most formida-ble contestants that a republican candi-date has ever encountered in this district.And why is this the case? Simply because he is a man of marked business ca-pacity, and integrity, of strong characterand unblemished reputation, and is not anaggressive partisan, though always ademocrat from principle. He has formany years been a business man in Ad-rian, aud his career is marked with signalsuccess, and whatever he may now pos-sess he has gained fairly .iud honorably,and has no antagonisms to overcome. Heis without a doubt one of the "cleanest'candidates that has ever opposed a republican nominee in the second district, anchaving ability and popularity, he will har-monize every element of opposition to therepublican party.

Mr. Waldby believes the democraticparty is the party of the people, andthrough it the people are always heard,and if he should be elected, of which heis daily and hourly receiving the mostflattering assurances, he will ever be mind-ful of their lights and wants. As we aboveremarked, he is a democrat from principleand has always been conservative, yet de-cided in his convictions. Hu was a staunchsupporter of every measure to crush therebellion, sustained the government inthe great struggle for constitutional rule,and was everywhere known as a waidemocrat, and with his property interestshere, with his past business record, andevery day life, he can be safely entrustedwith the legislation of the country at alllimes, and the absurd clamor about pay-ing rebel war claims, and pensioning rebelBOldiers, falls harmless to the ground andbecomes st'll more absurd when urgedagainst his candidacy. In brief, Mr.Waldby,now, as in the past.stauds by andupholds the constitution. Mr. Walduystands before the voters of the seconddistrict to-dav as a man who is willing tojield his business interests, aud his do-mestic comforts, for the good of the peopie. He feels that, perhaps, through himthe chain may be broken, and the peopleliberated from the toils of the piesent in-cubus that clings to them, and promisesthat if he be their choice their burdensshall be lightened as much as it is possiblefor him to do, their petitions shall be pre-sented, their correspondence shall bepromptly answered, and, their wishes re-garded rather than ignored.

No man in Adrian where Mr. Waldbyis best known contends that he is not apre-eminently lit man to represent us in thenational councils, and people come byscores with Iheir congratulations andhopes for his success. ' Hundreds of theopposition have already quietly tenderedhim assurances of support at the polls. Itis no exaggeration to say that Mr. Wald-by is, iu many respects, the strongest andfittest man iu the entire district to repre-sent us at this time iu Congress. It maybe urged by some that he. is no speaker,but we contend that an intelligent, vigor-ous and upright business man, who canconduct his own affairs with eminent suecess, is of far more value iu congress thana man who can make a speech, and yetlacks the capacity to conduct his ownprivate affairs successfully. Let us haveless speaking and more business; lessbombast and more practical good com-mon sense. Our candidate is a mau whorepresents the spirit and wants of all class-es and realizes the needs and demands ofthe people.

Mr. Waldby came to Adrian in 1840 apoor boy. He has contended with pov-erty and knows iis burdens and its priva-tions. He was born in Cooperstown,New York, in 1820, attended the Uticaacademy until twelve years of age, andthen learned the printers' trade with hisfather, Ralph. Wuldby, who at that timebecame the founder of the Rome N. Y.Sentinel. He worked in the Sentinel of-fice five years as printer and book-keeper.His first employment in Adrian was in theold Bidwell store and he continued inmercantile pursuits until 1850, when IraBidwell decided to open a banking officein Adrian, and offered Mr. Waldby an in-terest in, and the management of the same,which was accepted. The following3'earMr. Bidwell retired, selling his interest toMr. Waldby, who conducted the same for23 years. While he was in businesshe enjoyed thereputatiou of being one ofthe very best bankers iu Michigan. Heretired from business iu 1872, since whichtime he has lived a private life, and enjoys the highest respect and confidence ofthe entire county of Leuawee. During

the past winter Governor Cfoswell, recog-nizing his eminent fitness, appointed hima member of the Board of Control of theMichigan reform school for girls.Through his untiring energy and abilityto cope with all the efforts • put forth bymany other localities, he succeeded in se-suring the location of the school in Ad-•ian, fur which the citizens will alwaysjcar him in grateful remembrance. Helas, also in many other directions lent hismergics and his means iu benefiting andmproving the city of his residence and

choice. As an evidence of his popularity'at home" it may be proper to say herehat a few years ago, when he was ircan-

didate for mayor he was elected by overtix hundred majority, carrying every wardu the city, although Adrian was at that

time a republican strong-hold.Finally the citizens of Adrian and Len-

awee county believe in him first, last, andall the time, and we predict for him inNovember not less than 500 majority inold Lcnawce; and we commend him to allvoters of the entire district as a man inevery way worthy their support, who willnot betray their confidence, or break hispromise.—Adrian Press.

And stil! they come. The Abend Post,published at Cincinnati, hoists the namesof Hancock and English.

Gabriel Derrick, a well-known Germanrepublican of Cincinnati, now presidentof the board of aldermen, is out for Hancock.

Henry C. Sayres, Wayuesburg, GreeneCounty Pa., has not only come out forHancock, but has turned over to the dem-ocrats about sixty torches which did ser-vice for Hayes four years ago.

It is estimated that the defection fromthe republican ranks in Jamaica, LongIsland, reaches fifty. Among those whohave joined the central democratic clubarc Alvin Dunham, a large property own-er, Lynns Cooper a soldier whoserved under Hancock, aud David An-drews, a well known citizen.

Col Noah L. Cochen, a Brooklyn veter-an and former republican, say the repub-lican leaders no longer lepresent republi-can principles; that General Hancockproved his devotion to the Union duringthe rebellion; and Wm. Snedeker, onco amember of the union league of Kingscounty, resigns from the thirteenth wardrepublican committee saying that he isfor Hancock, who promises that tffe con-stitution and amendment shall be preserv-ed inviolate.—Free Press.

James A. Garfield went down intoLouisiana to see a fair count in 1875. Hewas allowed to manipulate the returnsand to dictate the course to be pursued bythe returning board. Then he came backand sat on the electoral commission,where he voted not to go behind the re-turns. He knew what Kind of work hehad been putting in. He assisted at afraud and voted not to investigate it. Itwould be an insult to the majority of vo-ters of that year to elect him tothe presidency.—Adrian Press.

Mr. Blaine's virtuous indignation at theuse of money by the democrats iu theMaine canvass will probably subsidewhen he hears from Augusta, where fourcitizens have made affidavits before aUnited States commissioner to the effectthat they voted the republican ticket forpay, $10 being the inducement in eachcase. The men give the names of thepersons who negotiated the bribery, ahdstate that they were given to understandthat the money came from the Augustapostmaster.—Chicago Times.

When you go out to hear Mr. Willitsyou will be expected to wear your Sundayclothes. Be sure also, that your boots areblacked with the most lustrous polish, be-cause, don't you remember how Wilhtssaid he could tell a democrat by his ragged clothes, and the air of general dilapi-dation about him?—Adrian Press. Unfortunately for Mr. Willits, there are a greatmany worthy and industrious republicanswho can't dress in purple and fine linenany more than their democratic neighbors,and they will just as surely resent hiscontemptuous, aristocratic fling at theirplebeian appearance.— Hudson Gazette.

given his walking papers.A student named Shepard, of the liter-

ary department; who roomed at Mrs. C.Davison's, thought to get away withoutpaying for his room; but she held histrunk and before he could get it, he paid$4,50. He is only one of many whoare up to this kind of business.

A young man named Calvin, living inthe fifth ward, went hunting last Sunday,aud when about five miles fom this city,ia attempting to take his gun from thecarriage, it accidentally discharged, andthe contents were emptied into one of hiscoat sleeves. His arm was burned by thepowder,but no further damage was doue.

The windows are large,and light, and ventilation excellent.

There was a large audience present tohear McCullough at the Ypsilanti operahouse last Monday. We could but noticehow quiet aud orderly it was when thecurtain was down. Ypsilanti people no.tice tho difference when they attend anentertainment in this city. Here, personsin the audience show their ill-breeding byhallooing, stamping, and singing, andthe responsibility rests upon the students.

A. W. Wright, who lives in the fifthward, was not disposed to take up withthe offer made by the Northeastern road,for the right of way through his land, andthe result was the impanelling of a juryto assess the damages. The jury wascomposed of the following well knowncitizens: Dr. W. B. Smith, JohnM. Swift,A. Wood, Aretus Dunn, and Thos.Keech. After examining the matter care-fully they assessed the damages at $1,100.The road will run diagonally through twolots and near the residence of Mr. Wright.

The farm residence owned by Michaeland P. Duffy.in the township of Webster,caught fire last Saturday afternoon froma defective chimney. The men folkswere a; work some distance away, and be-fore they could return the fire was undersuch headway that they were unable tosave only a few chairs and two beds.Everything in the house, furniture, cloth-ing, etc., burnt up, also about 600 in cash,which one of the Duffy's had in his trunk.They estimate their loss at $4,000, onwhich there is an insurance in the Wash-tenaw mutual of $1600 on the building,and $1,000 on furniture and wearing ap-parel. The barns were in close proximityto the burned building, and it wasthrough the greatest efforts of the neigh-bors they that were saved from des-truction.

Several weeks ago there arrived in thiscity, from Port Sarnia, an old gentleman,who had traveled all over this state inpursuit of his son,a boy some ninteen yearsof age, who, he heard through a party inJackson, was residing here. PolicemenMillman and Porter, who had previouslyworked up a case for a lady in Canada, afriend of the old gentleman referred to,were given the case. The police-men took Constable Loomis into their se-cret and the three, after working diligent-ly for a number of days, and when theysupposed they could put their hands onthe missing one, were doomed to disap-pointment. The boy had an inkling thatthe old man wanted to see him, and mys-teriously left the city. The officers saidnothing, but kept up a heap of thinking.Their disappointment was only temporaryhowever; the lad, supposing the old gen-tleman had given up the chase, returnedto the city last week. The father wasimmediately notified by telegraph, andhe came on and reclaimed his missingson, who had probably repented, for heseemed anxious to return home, and thetwo left for Sarnia last Monday.

Last Thursday night about sundown,Jesse Comstock, a one-armed peddler,dro/e to the residence of Jacob Stabler'sin Scio, where he put up for the night.He arose the next morning at six o'clock,and after eating his breakfast complainedof a severe pain near his heart. Com-stock got on his wagon and drove off.He had not gone a great ways, when hedied, setting in his seat, just as he wasdriving into a lane which led to JacobPaul's house. Coroner Johnson ivas noti-fied and went out aud viewed the remains.O. M. Martin, the undertaker, arrivedsoon after. He took charge of the body,which was removed to his shop on Mainstreet, where an inquest was held. Com-stock had often complained of his heart,and at different times informed his friendsthat he was liable to die suddenly. Onthe morning of his death he so stated toMr. Stabler and a man in his eniplo}'named Forshee, who was riding with him,when he expired. The coroner summonedthe following jury of inquest: O. M.

Some days ago Wm. G. Doty, secretaryof the Hancock and English club, ad-dressed a letter to Geo. F. Robison, rela-tive to addressing the club here on theevening of Oct. 2d., which caused the fol-lowing reply:

iu the WorldUniversally admitted to be the Largest Tented ExhibitionSIXTEENTH ANNUAL TOUR OF THE

GREAT FOREPAUGH SHOW

Forepaugh's Great ShowIs to exhibit at Ann Arbor, Mondav, Oct.4.

From the Detroit Free Press, in whichcity the establishment recently exhibited,we clip the following:

Forepaugh claims to exhibit a show su-perior in many things to Barnum's, andin all things its equal. He came heroyesterday, and the verdict of his immenseaudiences was, that his exhibition wasequal in every department to Barnum's;and there are several features in Fore-paugh's great show which Mr. Barnum,or any manager.^cannot easily duplicate.One is, theFIRING A HUMAN BEING FKOM A CANNONloaded with powder, as was witnessed inForepaugh's Circus yesterday; another, isthe high wire performance of MadameZuila, who, blindfolded, crosses a loftyline aud carries a man upon her shouldersaud wheels a barrow along the giddy road.Still another feature, which neither Bar-num nor any other manager can repro-duce, is the appearance in Forepaugh'sarena of a great herd of acting elephants;also a trained giraffe. The mammothpavilions are all illuminated by the newand

WONDKREUL ELECTRIC LlGHT,and all the machinery for producing it isexhibited afternoons as well as eveningsto the audience.

The street parade was extensive andcreditable. The herd of elephants, thebaby camels, the cage of lions with theirtrainer among them, were the more no-ticeable of the many attractive features.The tents were well filled afternoon andevening. The collection of wild animalsis the largest and rarest that has been seenhere. It includes a living hippopotamus,said to be the only specimen in this coun-try; an immense rhinoceros, baby camels,trained elephants which do almost incre-dible feats in the ring, under the management of A. Forepaugh, Jr., whoisayouthof 18; a giraffe which is driven in harness,etc.

There are thirty cages of animals. Inone cage were three immense lions and atiger fraternizing quietly enough. Theypresented a fine subject for an artist likeLandseer. Two lion cubs looked as harm-less as kittens. The animals all show signsof excellent treatment. The giraffe is avery delicate animal in this climate, andit is seldom that oue survives the rigor ofour winter. There are 320 horses in theconcern, all sleek, handsome, well-fedanimals. A stable tent is pitched at oneside, where they are well provided for.There is also an eating tent; but the ringperformers usually stop at hotels. Thereare 280 men connected with the show,andthe expenses average $1,700 per day. Thecost of running such an immense estab-lishment thus will be seen to be enormous.Mr. Forepaugh is with his show contin-ually, and is one of the shrewdest andmost experienced managers on the road.He owns all his railroad cars on which thisestablishment is transported.

The performance in the ring was verycomplete, and included some remark-able acrobatic feats. Frank Melville isprobably without an equal, is an accom-plished equestrian. No circus in the worldever had two more skillful riders thanWooda Cook and Mr. Ewers. The acro-batic acts of the great Herbert Brothers,Fred Levantine, Ajax. Ashton and Geyer,and the riding of Miss Anniu Carroll,M'lle Tournour, Madame Eweus, M'lleElvira and Boshell has never been equaledhere. The gymnastic exercises of Messrs.Hemmiugs, William Forepaugh and Lean-der; and the whimsicalities of the clowns,Burke, Seeley and Walker, all aided infilling up a two hours' amusement feast,which for novelty aud variety has neverbeen equaled here by any of the tentedexhibitions we have thus far seen.

KENDALL'SSPAVIN CURE

KENDALL'SSPAVIN CURE.The most successful Remedy ever

discovered, as it is certain in its effects ana doesnot blister.

Read Proof Below.PRESEVERANCE WILL TELL.

Stoughton, Mass., March 16th, 1880.B. J. KENDALL & Co., GENTS:—In justice to you

and myself, I think I ought to let you know thatI have removed two bone spavins with "Kendall'sSpavin Cure," one very large one; don't know,how long the spavin had been there. I hawowned the horse eight months. It took me fourmontlis to take the large one off and two for thesmall one. I have used ten bottles. The horse isentirely well, not at all stiff, and no bunch to beseen or felt. Thisis a wonderful medicine. It isa new thing here; but if it does for all what it hasdone for me its sale will be very great.

Respectfully yours, CHAS. E. PARKED.KENDALL'S SPAVIN CUHE is sure in its effects,

mild in its action as it docs not blister, yet it ispenetrating and powerful to reach every deepseated pain or to remove any bony growth orother enlargement.such as spavins, splints, curbs.callous, sprains, swellings, any lameness and allenlargements of the joints or limbs, or rheuma-tism in man and for any purpose for which aliniment is used for man or beast.

A MODEL MARTHA."Martha Griswold had been a ruombur

of her Uncle Harry Griswold's familyfever since sho could remember. In-deed, she had been its most happymember, for, being of a healthy, cheer-ful nature, she did not morbidly broodover dependence, but thankfully tookthe goods the gods provided, whioh, inher case, her uncle being wealthy, wasmeasure lull to overflowing.

Such a calm, steady ray of light ill thehouse was sho that every one oouiitedthe hours when she was absent. Heraunt had often remarked to her hus-band that she hoped Martha would re-main single, for she did not know whatin the world they could do without her.It looked now as if this would be theresult, for Martha had been engaged toGerald Allison for seven years, and forhis love she had, much to'the ire of heruncle, doL-lined imuiy brilliant offers.Gerald Allison was a poor clerk, whohad long looked forward to an advance-ment in his salary, but each year cameround with the old, yet ever poignantdisappointment of being unable to offera suitable home to the woman who hehad chosen from all the world as his.

It came to be an old story that Geraldshould pome and go, though her aunt:ind uncle had little liking for him, asis often the case of the prosperous, tothose less .successful. To Martha'saunt and uncle the idea that she andGerald would overy marry was utterlypreposterous, and her unole had oncesaid !o her, in the heat of argument:

"This tardy lover of yours will keepall others away, and at last leave \'ouhimself."

" I would as soon believe that you,who have been a father to me, wouldturn me out of doors, in a pitiless storm,"she answered, in her low, soft tones;but faith spoke in them.

Martha lacked beauty, yet she pos-sessed a gracious charm of manner that•won more enduring affection. She hada pure, fair complexion, large blue eves,clear and true as a child's, and a wealthof blonde hair, which she disposed of inbraids that ia glossy softness crownedher head. She was below the mediumheight and given to embonpoint. Geraldwas her entire contrast in appearanceand temperament, being tall, dark andremarkably handsome, given to extrav-agant nights of fancy, and frequent fitsof depression. Although they werecontrasts in this, yet they were one inall noble and amb'itious thoughts, in allgenerous aims for improvement.

It was Christmas eve, and the snowcame down in soft flakes like whitedoves, as Gerald, covered with a man-tle of tho same, presented himself atthe hall door, returning right merrilyMartha's Christmas greeting, as lightof heart as a boy. But as she stoodthere, so daintily fine in beautiful rai-ment, her face trustfully tender, itstruck him and not for the first time,that he was wronging her. How couldsuch as she combat the wolf at thedoor?

And when in the parlor, he sighed,drearily contrasting its splendor withthe poor comforts he could give her.Martha, hearing the sigh, said cheerily,though the tear-drops, those little mes-sengers of sorrow, trembled and glis-tened at the end of her long lashes:

" Is it to wait another year, love?"" O, Martha!" he cried, seizing both

of her hands, " I have been blindly self-ish; but, my darliug, I must not sacri-fice you; you are not made for thedrudgery of a poor man's lot," and hedropped his head in his hands in utterhopelessness. " I cannot ask you" towait for me any longer," he continued,a break in his voice, which is so touch-ing in a strong man.

At first the quick blood of een3itivofeeling had crimsoned Martha's face;but her faith was so strong in him thatshe could not doubt, and Tier heart, sowomanly tender, was filled with com-passion for him. She put a soothinghand upon his head, which he took an3pressed upon his eyelids, and she felttears upon it.

"Could we not?"-- she said and fal-tered; and he, looking up, she cpuMnot meet his glance.

"Could we not what? Can it be'love, that you are willing to leave allthese gew-gaws, and share a crust withm e " '

When he road her candid answer inher sweet face, he felt blessed beyonddeserving that she should thna lovt;him above all earthly tiiiuo-s.

"You are just throwing vourselfaway, Martha," her uncle saul; "youwill always be as poor as a churchmouse. Gerald has a line poetical na-ture, as you say. Wit will that earn hima way in the world? I'd give a gooddeal more for the old-fashioned word•spunk.' You are \ ouug and romantic,

. but I tell you that it. will be no play-day with you; you will earn your nameof Martha before you have been mar-ried a year; and when the cold windsblow and penury pinches, 3-011 will re-gret the warm nest you have left."

"No, undo, I fear nothing; we havetemperate wants, and with diligencewe will succeed. The poor are morecontented than the rich, and in that, atleast, we can have a mine of riches."

"Contentment never made the kettleboil, nor furnished, the meat for thoboiling; but its a rare tidbit for poeticalsouls to starve upon. These words,somewhat impati.'utly spoken, ended along discussion between Martha andbei uncle.

The wedding day had been appoint-ed; and as Gerald owned a little farmabout ten miles from the city, Martha's

f ood sense suggested that H would beetter to be oontfoilable farmers than

poor city folks, for the farm would be asure dependence- Sleeping or resting,their crops would be growing.

"What a wise little woman,1,' saidGerald, half in ear pest halt' in jest, liecould not ondnro the thought of Marthadrudging on a farm: but, in spite ofprotestations," he at la.st fell intoMartha1! plan, happily, saying, "Of nilavocations, it is the one 1 should choosofor myself, but 1 fear for you.

"But I am perfectly healthy, an 1have a strong heart for any fate withyou: and then I have expected to marry

a poor man for the last seven years, andI have not been idle^ut havep- leavoived to render myself a c*., tent,practioal housekeeper. Do iiot befrighteuod," she added, laughing at hislook of wonderment, "but 1 wish to im-press upon you the fact that we shallneed no Phillis to break our harmony—and the dishes."

Soon after this conversation, Goraldtook a ride to the farm and inspectedthe house. Upon opening the door, howas oppressed by a moldy smell, andfound it little (it to be. tho habitation ofman. But patience workod its rewardwhen, at last, cleaned, papered andpainted, it presented an agreeable as-pect. But Gerald was troubled in spiritfor he had expended his small means, andnot a piece of furniture had he bought;and Martha, seeing a cloud upon hisbrow, coaxed from him his dilemma.

"Oh!" she cried merrily. "Auntiehas given me a store of cast-away fur-niture. There are piles of it in theattic."

He looked forlorn enough. Had hebrought her to such extremity as this?

"Come and see our treasures," sheaaid, and roguishly tantalized him withthe sight of a misshapen mass of f urniturowhioh she declared triumphantly to beall her own. "Ah!" she said, "you haveyet to learn, love, the magic of paint,glue and varnish." Then, more gravely,she extolled an old kitohen range thatlay there, and displayed its differentmerits, until he went away half com-forted. But at night he had the night-mare and dreamed that the furnituretook human shape and battled withhim.

The wedding cermouy was performedat the house of Martha's unole, wholookod like an astrologer foretelling herdoom, and the aunts and all the cousinssighed most lugubriously over tear-wethandkerchiefs. But, as a bit of com-fort amidst this general wretchedness,Martha's unole put three hundred dol-lars into her hand at parting. "For pinmoney, my dear," he had said; but shethought, "It shall be for a rainy day."Gerald and Martha were glad to escapeinto the open air, as they started to thefarm, "upon their wedding tour," asMartha humorously called it. Thewinds blew bleak and the oarriagojolted over a rough road, and Geraldfeared for Martha's discomfort but onelook at that dear, unruffled face, andhi8 faint heart took courage. "Throughstorm and tide, we shaU'roaoh a sunnyshore at last, love," he whispered; andlove and hope cast their halo of gloryaround them.

The day before his. marriage, Geraldhad taken to the farm the furniturewhich Martha had selected from thedebris, as useful to them, whioh consist-ed of a kitchen range, a parlor stove, adrum, two dozen chairs, three oldlounges, three arni-ohairs, two rocking,chairs, a kitchen and a parlor table,three beadsteads, several wash-stands,half-worn mats, and many bright piecesof carpeting. Gerald put up the stoves,and with stove polish and hard labordid justioo to them; for, from rusty,unsightly things, they became as brightand as fine as new; and in a manfashion, he put things to rights asmuoh as possible; but how scant anddilapidated looked the appointments!He thdught sadly that it was a forlornplace to usher a bride into. But what abright-faced bride ontered his door withhim, not at all cast down, but bloomingwith health and hope! A bright firesoon crackled in the kitchen5 range,and its cheery warmth seemed to say

Welcome home." Martha, divestedof bridal array, sot about makingpreparations for their simple repast

"Oh, my dear!" said Gerald, re-pining, "It is a shame for you to dosuch kind of work."

"Why a shame my husband? Indeed,it would be a shame for me to keephelp, when I am so strong and well,without an ache or pain. Be not castdown, for my lot is one I have chosen,and I prophesy that it will be a happvone." What premonitions of ill couldprevail against such a smilling facedprophetess, strong and brave at heartas any warrior? What wonder thatthe little misty doubt-clouds werefrightened away, and that they setthemselves down to their unostenta-tious meal like happy-hearted childrenfor there was a g-uost called love attheir table who is often a stranger tomore sumptuous repasts.

"Shall I do, or do you miss Phillis?"inquired Martha, looking demurelyacross the table at her husband.

Gerald laughed, and yet declared itwas a shame.

"mit Gerald! I do not intend that myhousework shall engross my wholetime. I shall so plan it that I may havetime for things just as essential. Letus not be in such a race after wealth,that we curse with care an4 overworkonr present, for wealth is, more oftenthan otherwise, purchased at the priceof happiness, health, and conscience,and we can ill spare these from our life.Let us be diligent, and yet not forgetthe mental and spiritual needs, nor yetcrowd out those cheerful rocreationsand diversions that keep the heartyoung and the physical being healthv."

"Yes," replied Gerald,his oves dreamyand far seeing; "we will fashion a lifeof our own, not for any prototype; wewill seek for a competence; arid withprudence, which is another name forMartha, at the helm, can we not reachit, without being too tired to feel life'sbeauties and benedictions?"

Martha, within her, hearts of hearts,said Amen.

Gerald and Martha arose before thesun. They workod with energy, ac-complishing more in the several hoursthat they devoted to labor than thosewho droned lazily tho whole length ofthe day; they worked with heart, forthere was the well-earriod reward ofre-t awaiting them, and which thoiroonseience permitted them to take.

"We shall not bo broken down be-fore our time, miserable, discontentedgold heapor.s; but \yo will gather thehoney-laden flowers as we pass along,with which to BWQMM tho bitterness ofold age," said Gerald to Martha.

"But how nrieh timo the.y waste,"said ont! neighbor to another, as theysat busy over their patchwork.

" 1 am sure that they only Imvr whattime there is, and they have a knack ofgetting more coffiton out of it thanmost tolks, I can tt-11 you. I haveknown women to buy yards of calico.aud tear to pieces to' niako (juilts; amiif that is not an abominable waste oftime I do not know what is."

" God has given us so muoh time,"said another daughter, taking up thetheme; " and he who spends it the mostwisely is the best off, I wot."

fSo Martha made some converts; anda few seeds dropped by the waysidesometimes grow delicious fruitage,whioh may be scattered world-wide.

The summer was waning when oneday Martha's aunt said to her husband,with touo and droop of mouth mostsorrowful, "L'jt us go and see poorMartha;" and they set out, fully pre-pared to condole with her. Uncle Ger-ald, on generous thought intent, havingtilled his purse. But when they reachedthe gate, there stood Martha as joyousas any girl, not the faintest suggestionof loneliness about her; and Gerald washandsomer than over, for happiness satwell upon him. They had" just badegood-day to a famous Judge, who, withhis intelligent wife, had been spendingseveral days with them; so Martha hadnot been languishing in obscurity, asher uncle and aunt had imagined; butfriends had sought them oat. and com-ing onoe had come again. Undo Ger-ald and wife passed a moit charmingday. Marl ha'3 aunt declared the housea perfect gem.

" Indeed, I did not think to find yonso well situated," sh.> said, evincingsome surprise.

" But there hangs a tale" (thinkingof the rejuvenated furniture) said Ger-ald, laughirg heartily.

At parting. Martha said: "Do oomeout and stay with us awhile and get re-cruited; you look so worn out andweary, auntie."

" Come often aud bring the children,''added Gerald.

They gave glad assent, for their hardpride was all swept away; and thosewho came to pity went away almostpitying themselves.

Gerald and Martha sought out thebest and easiest methods for doing theirwork and systematized it. They neverused up their vitalitv by long-continued,exhaustive labor; and whereas many oftheir neighbors arose in tho morningwith too little strength or animation todo a good day's work, they retained thevigor, zest and ready accomplishmentof youth. Martha, although sho pro-vided nourishing food for the family,yet did not waste her precious time inmaking pastry or rich dishes to temptthe appetite beyond its needs, andthereby she saved to herself manypriceless hours. Although with ideasfar beyond their neighbors, yet theydid not obtrude them. Still, if calledupon, they were not afraid to expresstheir opinions against the popular one,which was that all time not spent inwork was squandered, and that moneyanil good cheer wero the chief end olman.

"Lifo thus spent," said Martha. " islittle higher than that of the brute, andwill pass in weary repining*; wheroas,if spent as God intends that it shouldbe, from the midst of labor a prayer ofthanksgiving will flow from our heartsunoeasingly."

Martha was always glad to give ad-vice to the inoxporienoed housewife, tolift a load from the weary sister; formany said to her, " I do not see howyou manage." Yet this wise and skill-ful matron did not become egotisticalin her superior knowledge, but saidthat she was blessed by nature withstrength and health, and that by tem-perate habits and prudence sho hadpreserved the same. "And that," shosaid, " is the charm that brings happi-ness."

" When time filled the house withrosy boys and girls, she and Gerald wcronot all nerves and irritability, but evenamongst their grandchildron were haleand hearty, aud able to enjoy withfresh hearts their youthful pleasures;and Martha in her beautiful old agowas beloved as in her youth.—Woman'sJournal.

A Conscientious Clerk.

A Galveston grocer has been observ-ing for several weeks past that a greaimany of his customers had quit him,and wero trading at a rival store overthe way. Ho also noted that one of hisclerks, who had been converted at arevival, rarely succeeded in selling anygoods at all to a customer. Ho had for-merly boon a very efficient eloik in sell-ing groceries, heneo the proprietor wasvery muoh bewildered. Yesterdaymorning tho proprietor came down before the clerk made his appearance,and, hiding behind a stack of boxes ofBlue Jaokot's Liver Encouraging Bit-ters, waited patiently for developments.Presently the clerk came in, put on hisapron, dusted off the counter, whistling" From Greenland's Icy Mountains" ashe did so. If was not Ion 2 before awealthy lady, whose custom tan up intothe thousands annually, came in, andasked the clerk if he had the celebratedB No. 8 sugar. He replied that theyhad, showed her a sample, and she saidshe thought she would take about onehundred pounds.

The conscientious clerk looked at thelady very earnestly, and askod:

" Are you prepared to meet yourMaker?"

The lady stared in blank amazement." I want to know if you have family

prayers regularly, and if your familyare fully prepared for a blissful here-after beyond the grave; for if you arenot you can't get the sugar, that's all.There is enough chloride of tin in onohundred pounds of sugar to kill the lastone of you, aud I don't want anybody'sblood on my hands, particularly whenthey are loading wicked lives and notfit to die," and he put the cover on thesugar barrel and strolled out to the doorwhistling " Old Hundred."

The lady flaunted herself out of thestore, her face as red as fire, but it wasnot any redder than that of the pro-prietor, who was only waiting for anopportunity to rend that clerk limb fromlimb. Fortunately, several customerscame in, and tho proprietor drew in hisbreath, gritted hit teeth and waited asbest he oould for the hour of vengeanceto strike.

"Have you got any claret—genuineFrench claret?"

"Who do you want it for?"" I want it for a friend of mine out in

tho country?'" Has he got a good constitution?"" No, he is in feeble health, and I

want it to help build up his system."'"We make our genuine claret our-

selves down in the cellar. The pro-prietor attends to that himself. Oflate the infusions of log-wood and otherdye-stuffs we get from the druggisthave been of such poor quality that ourgenuine claret wont do for me to rec-ommend. I can't Conscientiously cio so.You had better let your friend die a nat-ural death,"

Tho man said he was much obligedfor the information; but the clerk saidhe was only doing hie) duty, and hewhistled, "When I Can Read My TitleClear," as the customer strolled off.

Other customers docked in, but he; firmly refused to sell them a dime'sI worth. He explained to fi cadaverous-looking woman that her dyspeptic aji-|ir;irinre was due to tho China cl&y intho Hour, aud the. grabojeand sulphuricaeid in the golden sirup she wanted topurchase. Another lady wanted tea.Tho good clerk said: ".Madame, if youwere to drop d«ad aud wako up wherothore is weeping, ami wailing, andgnashing of leoth, 1 oould novel- Bleepai night afterward.

"Got auy good coffee?" asked afreshcustomer.

" We have some beans faced withphosphate of calcium and sulphate ofbarium, but the man who gets any of ithas to show a clean bill of health fromhis spiritual adviser." There was notrade with that man, either.

Finally, when there were no custom-ers in the store, the interview betweenthe enraged storekeeper and his clerktook place, but the clerk so impressive-ly warned the grocer—with au ax-han-dle—not to approach too close unlesshe was prepared to go home, thattheir business relations wore dissolvedby mutual consent. Tho moral of all ofwhich is that things are not always whatthey seem. —Gaioe-slon News.

Tnii make of cheese in New York sofar is fully one-third less than last year,and in somo oases one-half less.

MlLK cans are boing discussed widelyin the farm journals, and tho conclusionbeing reached that the eight inch can isall that is needed, on which there is nopatent. Tho main point is to get themilk into sufficiently cold water; that iseverything. — Tracr Clipper,,

THE New York Tint'si says: "Of thodifferent methods of setting milk forcream that the writer has used, thereseems to be little to choose betweenthem excepting as regards the conve-nience of use. The deep-can system isvaluable when one has a plentiful sup-ply of cold running water, and it raisesthe cream in a more liquid state andmixed with a certain portion of milk.The shallow-pan system, especially whenused in a refrigerating closet, raisesthick cream, which gives more butterfor the same quantity of cream raisedin deep cans, but not more butter forthe same quantity of milk. Thick creamneeds to be diluted with milk before itis churned, so that nothing is gained onaccount of the thick cream for butter-making. But tho shallow pans and drysetting in a refrigerator can be usedanywhere and therefore is more gener-ally useful than the deep cans, other-wise there is nothing to choose betweenany good method with either system."

MANUFACTURE OF BUTTER.—Prof. L.B. Arnold gives a detailed statement ofexperiments made to determine theagency of tho oxygen of the air on theseparation of butter from milk andcream. Omitting the careful details forsecuring a reliable result, we can onlystate in general that vessels containingoxygen with the cream, gave butter byagitation in eighteen minutes, whileanother vessel with carbonic acid con-fined with the cream required twenty-eight minutes of agitation to pro-duce butter. The product in thetwo cases was unlike; that from creamunder oxygen had a lively, rich and de-licious flavor, while that from undercarbonic acid was insipid and had ngreasy taste. The former kept wellthe latter soon became tainted. Tinquantity of butter was the same incurcase. We are not informed what cheuical difference appeared whether 11butter was obtained from fresh milk <from cream forty-eight hours old.

BCTTEK to be kept any length of tini'should be made with the greatest pbssible care aud with an eye particularlyto the exclusion of every drop of bin -tormilk. To accomplish this to thegreatest perfection the churn shouldbe stopped while the butter is in thegranular form, certainly no larger thanpeas, and a little earlier if possible.Draw off the buttermilk and washthrough changes of fresh water at atemperature not higher than sixty-threedegrees several times and until thewater runs off perfectly clear. Not lessthan three-fourths of an ounce of saltto the pound of butter should be addedafter the water has been all worked out.The second working, at the end of fourhours after the first, and just enoughto remove any mottled or streaky -appearance to the butter ; pack immediately and see that the packing is soli>l.without fissures or cracks of butterThe tub or firkin shonld be thoroughlysoaked in hot brine and packed whil'the wood is wet. though it should hallowed to cool off before the butter iput in.—American Dairyman.

Winter* Dairying.

T H E better class of livers in thUnited States are beginning to dimand good fresh butter instead (the salted article which has hitlerto been eaten through the windmonths. In consequence those farmer,who try to please the palate by produoing a sweet, nutty-tasting commodity,will reap their reward by receiving :remunerating price. Setting aside fan-cy prices it is certain that a good fairrate will always be paid for butter whichcan be depended upon to come to handweekly in uniform quality. The bestbutter-maker in the United* States failsunieas the cows are fed properly, there-fore, there must be the right sort offood. The hay should be made fromgrass cut when in bloom, and this alonewill do, but some corn meal and wheatbran will increase the cream and addto the rich flavor of the butter. Alsothe use of carrots will cause a greaterflow of milk and there will be then thepeculiarly fresh taste which characteri/.es butter when cows are in good pasturc in Juno. Of course corafortabUstabling, cleanliness aud exercise in ;sheltered yard will be requisite for fulsuccess.

Fall Cheese.

THE quantity of fine fall-madecheese in this country is not large.If America i.s to keop up and in-crease the quantity of cheese exportedto Europe, the quality must be good."Skims" will not till the bill. If anytemporary pecuniary advantage isgained by making skim-cheese it i.smore balanced in the long run by sub-sequent Losses. The explanation fortho inferior quality of so large a per-centage of the fail make of cheese iseasy. Cupidity is at the bottom of it.As soon as the hot weather is over,many factories resort to skimming. Afactory which has made a reputation forproducing cheese of fine quality, spoilsits reputation and ruins its prospectsby skimming, ami at the very time, too.when the best opportunity is presentedto maintain and enhance it. It is wellto remember that the September andOctober cheeses nre those that arc re-quirecLto carry over for spring use. Ifthese goods are "full cream" they arerich, solid and desirable. The factoryproducing them is more tliun likely toget an order for goods from abroad thefollowing season. But such will hardlybo the case if skimming is resorted to.

An experienced dairyman, of HomesN. Y., says, on this subject: "Makersseldom fully realize the full effects oiskimming. It alters the condition olthe milk which they have to work, re-tarding the desired change, and this, inconnection with the eold weather, delays the development of aeid. Themaker tiros of ' waiting and watcning,1and dips the curd too soon, the resultbeing a poor, open textured cheese.Full cream October milk, properlymade into clfbese and well cured, shouldbe the finest of the season, such aswould be rich, mellow and line-flavored

• —The. New York Sun says: " Heavesor broken wind in horses is not readilycured, but tho distress of the animalmay be alleviated by giving proper careand attention to his food. Give nomusty hay, avoiding all kinls contain-iu£r clover of any species. Turn out thehorse in summer to pasture, and inwinter feed well-cured corn fodder andsound, clean oats or moal upon but hay,or cornstalks well moistened. If hav Isfed lot it be in small quantities, and atnight only, and then sprinkled withwater when put in tho manger. Alsoavoid driving soon after feeding. Nervetonics are also useful, and the best ofthese is arsenic, given in five-graindoses daily for a month or more, butusually three or four weeks will be suf-ficient."

—Fowls in Orchards.—Last fall theeditor of the Poultry World visitod anorchard in which fowls were kept, theowner of which told him that before thefowls wero confined in it the trees madelittle or no growth and only a corre-sponding amount of fruit was obtained.But what a change was evident now!The grass was kept down, the weedskilled, and the. trees presented an ap-pearance of thrift; which the most en-thusiastic horticulturist could not but ad-mire and envy. The growth of thetrees was most vigorous, and tho foliagemost luxuriant; the fruit was abundant,of large size, and free from worms andother imperfections. The excellencewas accounted for by the proprietor,who remarked that the "hens ate allthe worms and curoulio in their reach,even to the oanker worm." He foundless trouble with their roosting in treesthan he expeotod, and a picket fencesix feet high kept them within bounds.His orchard was divided into three sec-tions, and the fowls were changed fromone to another as tho condition of thefowls or the orchard sections seem torequire.
