CONFESSION OF. AN ALLEGED MURDER ER-HB
SAYS dIs Son COMMITTED THE DEED.-THE NEWS
has mentioned that Friday and Anthony Nixon,
3 father and SON. were committed to Jail to answer
the charge OF numbering Dick Richards, the ne
gro whose body was found floating or the Bat.
terry last Sunday week.
Yesterday, Friday, the fathe' confessed to
Coroner Whiting that his son Anthony had com.
mitted the murder, saying: son Saturday morn.
ing about O'Clock, whilst Dick Richards, the de-
:, ceased, my son Anthony and myself were on
board the nat coming to town.. my son and the
deceased were forward and was aft. When the
sea-swash struck the boat saw my son Anthony
strike the deceased across the back Of the neck
with bottle, killing him. When my son struck
the deceased he fell overheard. Ny son jumped
over after him, and whilst they were in the water
saw my son endeavor to strike him again. The
reason, l suppose that my son struck the deceas.
ed was that when the swash hit the boat and the
water WAS coming in, deceased did not row fast
enough. When we returned home my son pro-
posed to harvest the corn,.to which fobjected,
but we broke in two tasks. He gave as his rea-
son for 1t that he wanted to leave the island and
geto the mari works to make money!
II Is stated thatthe son will be ready to make
a confession to-day. The statement OF the old
man does not seem to be correct. The body OF
the deceased was horribly mutilated, there being
deep oasiies in the back OF the head in the throat
and In the hip, which could not have been made
with a bottle, even with broken one. The
wounds bore every appearance of having. been
made with an axe; this, coupled with the facts
that while the fiat was in Eniott's Cut, the acous
ed borrowed an axe, and after they had returned
1t, iand it was covered with blood, as an examina
,ion has shown,} the deceased, who hSi bee1
moving about with them, was seen laying IN the
nat '1ike he was asleep" leads to the beief tha'
the father and son murdered the deceased VIII
the axe while they were in the Cut and threw the
body overheard.

The First Snow in New York.

The first snow storm in New York
was attended with the jam and stop
page of business, which is a feature
and a cOncomitant of heavy snow
storms in the metropolis. The gas
lights were scarcely discernable. Over
a thousand thinly-clad girls lined the
sidewalks of the streets, vainly en-
deavoringto secure a passage up town.
The cans, brimming over with passen-
gers, were twisted off their tracks in
every direction. In fact the track
could not be found. Switchmen were
unable to find the tracks. Double
teams had been furnished, but for a
long time they were of no avail. The
conductors and drivers swOTe at the
passengers in the various cars because
they would not get out and lend their
aid in getting the cars under head
way. a group of fifty persons would
besiege a single car in the vain hope
of securing a foOthold upon one of the
platforms. The wan shop girls
crouched under their umbrellas, and
watched the proceedings with anxious
interest. For hours this jam contin-
ued, and hundreds of persons were
compelled to walk miles through the
binding storm. Atone time rs many
as fifty street cars were standing in q
line along the several tracks.

Imusl grind out the golden grain,
must work at my task with resolutt

Over and over again.
We cannot measure the need
OF even the tinlest flower,
Nor check the flow Of the golden sands
That run through single hour.
But the morning dew must fall,
And the sun and the Summer rain
Must do their part and perform IL well
Over and over again.
Over and over again,
The brook through the meadow flows
And over and over again
The ponderous mill-wheel goes;
Once doing will not suhce,
Though doing be not in vain;
And blessing, falling us once or twice
May come IL we try again.
The path that has once been trod
Is never so rough to our feet:
And the lesson we once have learned
Is never SO hard to repeat,
Though sOrrOwful tears may fall,
And the heart TO its depth be riven
With storm and tempest, we need them all
To render Us meet for Heaven.

Fundamental Elements OfAgricuIture.

First-All lands on which clover or
the grasses are grown must either
have lime in them naturally, or it
must be artificially applied. 1t mat
ters little whether it be supplied in
the form of stone lime, oyster shell
lime or mari.
Second-All permanent improve
ment of lands must look to lime as
its basis.
Third-Landsw which have long been
in culture will be benefited by appli-
cations in the form of bone dust,
guano, native phosphate of lime, COM
posts of fish, ashes, or in oyster shell
lime-or mari, if the land needs lining
also.
Fourth-No lands can be preserved
in high state of fertility unless elO-
yer and the grasses are cultivated in
the course of rotation.
Fifth-Mould is indispensable in
every soil, and a healthy supply can
only be preserved through the culti-
vation of clover and the grasses, the
turning in of green crops, or by the
application of eOmpOsts rich in the
elements of mould.
Sixth-All highly concentrated ami
NAL manures are increased in value
and their benefit prolonged by the
admixture of plaster or pulverized
charcoal.
Seventh-Deep plowing and sub
soiling greatly improve the produe-
tive powers of variety of. soil that is
not wet.
Eighth-All wet lands should be
| drained.
Ninth-All grain crops should be
harvested several days before the grain
is thoroughly ripe.
Tenth-Clover, as well as other
grasses intended for hay, should be
mown when in bloom.
Eleventh-Sandy lands can be most
effectually improved by clay. If such
lands require lining, it is best done
/ by a compost of lime and clay. In
Stacking lime salt brine is better than
water.
Twelfth-The chopping or grinding
of grain to be fed to stock effects a
saving of at least twenty-five per cent.
Thirteenth-The draining of wet
lands add to their value by making
them produce more and better crops,
by producing them earlier, and by
improving the health of the neigh
borhoOd.
Fourteenth-To manure or lime
wet lands is to throw manure, lime
and labor away.
Fifteenth-Shallow plOwing 0per-
ates to impoverish the soil, while de-
creasing production.
Sixteenth-By stabling and shed
ding stock during the Winter, a saw
ing of one-fourth of the food is effect
ed. That is, one-fourth less food is
required than if they were exposed to
the inclemency of the weather.
Seventeenth-A bushel of plaster
per acre, sown broadcast over clover,
will add from so to 100 per cent. to
its produce.
Eighteenth-The periodical appli-
cation of ashes unleached, tends to
keep up the integrity of the soils, by
supplying most if not all of the inOr-
ganic substances.
Nineteenth-ThorO preparation
of land is absolutely necessary to the
successful and luxuriant growth OF
crops.
Observation-Disclosures crops cannot
be grown upon the same land in sue
cession unless feTtilizing matter is re-
turned to it in equivalent proportions
to those substances taken away.
