From the Wilson Piainde aler
Mari.

The farmers of Wilson and adloin-
ing counties have paid greater attention
to mari digging this season than has ever
been known before; and the dry weather
has been peculiarly favorable for such
operations We are told that in many OF
the new pits that have been opened, rich
deposits have been found, abonnding in
phosphates. The discovery of mari. in
large quantities and Of superior quality, is
no new thing i'll this county; yet our moss
obseryant farmers do not seem to compre
hend the extent of the deposits, or the
practic.bility of bringing them intn gener
al use. The experience of this season, how
ever, convinces all that the supply is not
only sufficient. but inexhaustible, and that
it is very easily obtained. la v.l!aE
The deposits Of mari in this county are
also peculiarly valuable for tho fossils they
contain; which are the sole remaining
proofs of the existence of animals, some
of which are now unknown The whale,
the shark, among tish-the maatodon, Ia
gigantic elephant.) the herne, the hog
are among the animals known to have
existed here. 1t is we'll worth our while
to collect these for preservation. 1t is
to make collection of these for
the county, giving the duplicates to Prof.

4 Domestic Romance.

Seanss.a alter FITty Yoass' separation.
In our daily Of the 10Th uit., We gave
the history of a romance in real life, whose
main facts it may be we'll to recount --
Samuel, father of Rev. L. b. Eastman, OF
this city, left Concord III 1919 to better
himself III Massachusetts. He LETT wife
and three children behind, and finally
went on a whaling voyage, On his return,
the family had LETT this city, and no trace
Of them was TO be found. Fifty years
passed away, the first family had grown
up, and Mr.. Eastman, ignorant of their
existence had married again and raised
another family BY an accident, Rev. MIR.
Eastman lascertaIned that his father was
alive, and followed up the trace, found
and introduced himself to him, and told
the story Of the past half century, so far as
he knew it.
The elder Eastman, his second wife
being dead, gladly heard the tidlngs fro M
the lost family, and he came to this city
on the 18TH to renew the relations that
chance had so sadly snnhere1 He Was
InyfuIly received by his grandchildren,
whom he had never seen, aud Oh the tol
lowing day performed his first duty. that
OF visiting his mothers grave.
On the 18th the aged wife, with two Of
her defendants arrived in this city from
Nassau, and went to the house Of her son,
where all but one of her family now living
were gathered. The husband entered the
room, and they looked at each other in
silence for a moment The old lady was
the first to speak, saying. ''ls this Samuel
Eastman, my husband ?" ''And my long
lost wife ?" he added, and they rushed To
each others arms, and kissed with all the
ardor of sweet sixteen. BY request of the
father, a prayer of thanksgiving was offered
over the happy reunion by Rev. u. b.
Eastman.
The old couple are now rennited, and,
though the bloom of youth has fed, both
enjoy excellent health and spirits. The
old gentleman's eyesight is defective,
owing to straining it at sea, but he says he
can throw harpoon or lance at whale as
well as ever. He has never had a doctor
in his life. The old lady is also in excel
lent health, bat with impaired hesring.-
To both we wish years of contiLued health
and renewed happiness.
