Loss IN STACKING HAY.-A farmer
Of sound Judgment and large experience
in cutting and storing hay. estimates his
own loss in stacking at twenty-five per
cent. He cuts probably hundred tons
year, and stacks fifth part of it for want
OF barn room. He has properly made up
his mind to build new barn. There is
loss from moulding at the bottom of
the stack, and old rails. boards or straw,
will not wholly prevent it. Then the
whole external surface, from three to six
inches. is weather, beaten, and loses much
OF Its sweetness, and it is not improbable
that this loss of aroma extends through
the .~hole stack. The conviction is uni
versal amo,nog intelligent men that barn
stored hay is wo.~tth much more than that
which is taken from he stack. Why,
then, follow this wasteful practice ?
Look at the great loss to this farmer ,1i.o

Governor Wells, of Virginia, is ON
trial, in Richmond, for violating the
sanctity of private letter not address
ed to him, and the fact that General
Stoneman has released him from official
duty gives color to the charge. The
Richmond Dispatch says of the case ::

gentleman divulged the contents of the

way, first heard of it. Then come in

and reciprocal abuse from Wells-the

A queer wedding came off in -

figuring as groom and Miss Amanda

matrimonial business, and, it is surmis-

tion. When he arrived on the scene of
action he found tn" happy couple
standing at the pump in the
yard talking about their ap-
! preaching union. He at once pro.
posed marrying them then and there,
and declared that he would not marry
them at all unless he was permitted TO
perform the ceremony right off. Here

| they were outside the house. The
guests, also, were ready, but they were
inside the house, and unless a conncc-

and the insiders, it would be rather dry
work for the latter. But the youthful
divine was ineXorable, and the happy
couple finally stood upon the pump
platform and were soon made man
and wife. The youug minister
then made a bee-lino for home,
while the happy couple, re-
turning to the house, announced to their
wondering friends what had befallen
them. After the wonder and surprise
had abated, and the wedding feast been
disposed of, came the task of putting
the bride and groom to bed, rs was the
fashion in olden times. In disrobiug
the bride there was some difficulty, as
some of the garments had very brief

giniR.

The Lynchburg rgInIdn says:
An event which has been expected for
several days occurred on Saturday
morning, in the death of Mr.. Samuel
Miller, at his residence uear the city.
Mr.. Miller was native of Albemarle
county, Virginia, where he was born
in the year 1892 He was, therefore,
seventy seven years of age. He was of
humble origin, and had but few early
advantages. Early in life he came to
this city and secured situation as
clerk in the store of Mr. Benjamin Per
kins, then prominent merchant of the
place. w
From this business Mr.. Miller entered
on a life OF trade and speculation on his
own account, to which he adhered mp
TO within a short period previous to his
death. His first ventures were IN to
Lacco. and he continued TO deal largely
in that article, To it he was probably
indebted for the great bulk of his enor
nous wealth.
In lS29. Mr.. MilIer's health failed BIN
and he retired to his country seat, foul
miles from the city, where he has con
tinued to reside ever since. He has liv-
ed there entirely alone with the eXcep-
ton of few servants.
He leaves a will, but what are its pro-
visions is not yet known. Two of his
bequestS have been made known, but
they are simple transfers of stocks, and
are outside of his will. They are, first,
about $4,000 for the establishment of
female orphan asylum at this city: and
second, 100000 for the endowment of a
chair of agriculture at the University of
Virginia.
Beyond these donations nothing is
known. 1t Is believed. however, by
those most familiar with his views, that
Lynch6urg will share largely in his
benefits. What Mr.. Miller's actual
wealth is, it is impossible to say, but it
is thought that it will not tall much, if
any, under three millions. He has no
family, and only some distant relatives,
and 1t Is supposed that this great accu.
mutation of wealth will 90 to charities
