Mrs. Andrew johnson.

Mrs. johnson, a confirmed invalid,
has never appeared in society in
Washington. Her very existence is
a myth to almost every one. She
was last seen at party given to her
grandchildren. She was seated in
one of the Republican Court chairs,
a dainty affair of satin and ebony.
She did not rise when the children,
or older guests, were presented to
her, she simply said: my dears,
am an invalid" :" and her sad, psle
face and sunken eyes, Iully proved
the expression. Mrs. Johnson looks
much older than the President, and
her age exceeds his by few swings
of the scythe of time. She was never
beautiful, but an observer would say,
contemplating her-''a noble woman
Gods first, best gift to man.
Perhaps it is well to call to mind at
his time that it was this woman who
.aught the President to read after
she became his wife; and that in all
their earlier wears she was his coun
selor, assistant and guide. None but
a wise and good mother could have
reared such daughters as Mrs. Pat
terson and Mrs. Slower. When Mrs.
Senator Patterson found herself the
{ first lady in the land" she made
this remark, which has been the key
note OF the feminine Department of
the White House from that eventful
day to the present time: I'VE are
plain people, from the mountains OF
called here for a short
lime by national calamity. l trust
100 mucn will not be expected of US
When Anna Surratt threw herself
orostrate upon the floor OF Que OF the
OF the White House, beg
ying piteously to see Mrs. Patterson,
she said: "Tell the girl she has my
sympathy, my tears, but i have no
more night to speak than the servants
If the White House" When the
pardon brokers' trailed their Shiny
engths every where about the man
'lcn, they never dared to cross
certain enchanted pathway, and the
ace of any lobbyist set in this direc-
ion has always brought up in the end

Variation of Farm Labor.

If a little more system were exer
cised in the division and apportion.
meht of of farm labor, much of the
drudgerv incident to this pursuit
might be avoided. Agriculture fur.
nishes such q diversity and variety
of bodily motion, that it may be made
q gymnasium for the development
and training of the whole physical
organism. Here we should look for
the best specimens of health, and the
most robust and muscular men,
Some farmers are more deformed and
contracted than shoemskers and
taiIors; and nothing but neglect OF
the best opportunities for symmet-
rical and harmonious development
accounts for this fact. A man must
sew all day to make a garment; but
sowing forms small portion of the
labor in making crop. Hoelng,
wedding, cultivating and digging each
in turn call into use a different mus
cular effort.
Those who are accustomed to apply
themselves from morn till eve to any
one OF these operations will find a
change from one to another several
times during the day attended with
far less fatigue and exhaustion, and
retire from the field with freshness
and buoyancy never dreamed of by
the monotonous ploddinp sons of toll
Increase of strength and expansion

Shall He Be a FarmerP

The agricultural editor of Zion's
Herald asks the question, "Shall q
young man engage in farming?' and
answers it:
We say yes. He should for many
reasons. Some must be farmers and
producers. There are too many
non- producers now. Farming is q
healthy pursuit. 1t is q pleasant
one, with few exceptions. 1t tends
to long life. He is almost sure of 8
living, and has good chance, pro
vided he has sufficient capital, to Sc
cure comfortable fortune. We be
lieve there is no business pays better
on the amount of capital inves ed
Many think that those that are no
fit for business will do for farmers,
and if they have not capital sufficient
to give them good start in trade
they had better go to farming. This
is all wrong. Talent can be used to
advantage on the farm as well as in
the counting room; capital can also
be profitably employed there. Let
young men who are looking about to
see what they had better do for q
living, remember the advantages of
a farmers life, and the uncertainties
of mercantile business that nine
tenths of all the business men, in ali
the large cities, fail sometimes during
their business life, and many die
poor, leaving families, possibly, to
struggle on in want. Such thing
rarely happens to a farmer, however
small his means. If one object of
the young man be to make himself
useful in the community, then he will
stand a much better chance of making
his influence felt in q rural neighbor-
hood than in a crowded city, where
he might find and be obliged to
compete with those greatly his supe-
riors. We grant that IN farming
there Is no chance to gain riches sud
denly, and it is well there is not, and
it would be far better if there was
not in any direction, for the desire
to become rich at single stroke has
ruined thousands, while sudden rich
es have really benefited few. Young
men, ponder we'll before you decide
to throw away q certainty on the
farm for an uncertainty in trade.

The Hortie,ltUrist says: "When-
ever the peach does not succeed well
planted upon its roots, because of
the soil being too stiff, clayey or
wet, it will be found that if the peach
be budded on the plum it will thrive
well, and give good crops of fruit,
and, at the same time, give to the
tree more hardihood to bear extreme
changes of temperature.'

POETICAL.
GROWING OLD. TOGETHER.


We're growing old together,
We're growing old apacs.
And tell-tale care and sorrow strew
Their lines upon thy face.
Yet still as dear 10 me art thou
AS when in youths bright naorn.s
The ruby lip and rosy cheek
Did thy fair face adorn-
We're growing old together,
As time flies swiftly by :
And fearful grief mas somewhat dimmed
The luster of thine eye;
Yet still il beams as fondly, love.
As when We stood beside
The old oak tree-I held your hand
And asked you for my bride.
We're growing old together
But still our hearts are young
And future days OF chanseful life
Shall find us brave and strong;.
And may affection true enchain
Our hearts together still,
As of in days of yore we felt
The same emotions thrill

SAFETY OF THE GUNBOATS.
FaiIure of the Cuban ExpedItIOn-Want of
Cooperation Among the Leaders-Return of

FaiIure of the Cuban ExpedltIOn-Want of
Cooperation Among the Leaders-Return of
the Filibusters.
The Cuban expedition, which started from this
city on last Friday night for the mouth of the
Potomac, where an armed vessel was in waiting
to embark the men who had sworn to sink or
capture the Spanish tlotilla, now on its way to
the ''ever faithful isle, has proved failure.
We learn from Cubans well informed on the
plans laid down to govern the movements of the
destroyers that Messrs. George Abbott and
Albert Lang had arranged to cooperate with
certain leader of former unsuccessful eXpedi-
ton, and he assured them that he had made
such preparations for the enterprise that success
was certain. He promised to meet Mr.. Abbott
at certain house in Broadway, near Bleecker
street. on Monday night, at 1890 o'clock, when
he would accompany him to tugboat filled with
armed men awaiting them in the East river.
This boat was to have gone to sea in pursuit of
the gunboats, which they expected to overhaul
off Hatteras, where the armed steamer Repub-
lica from the Potomac river, was to join them.
Together The two steamers were to attack,
and, if possible, board some of the gunboats and
sink the others. But this leader failed TO keep
his appointment, and knowing that the Repu6-
lca was provisiOned only for three days, two of
which had already expired without any move
ment on the part of the New York portion of
the expedition, Lang gave up the matter in dis
gust. He could do nothing without money,
which the Cubans refused to advance him, and
the lack Of energy displayed by the above-mcn-
toned Cuban leader, on whom all had implicitly
relied disheartened him, and he withdrew from
the affair. The fifty men who left this city on
Wednesday night to join the Republica have re-
turned.
The abandonment of this enterprise, says our
informant, renders the arrival of the fotilla at
| Havana certainty He assures us that the At
| lanta, or Triumph as some call her, has nothing
| whatever to do with this or any other Cuban
movement and that no possible danger now lies
| between the gunboats and their destination. 1t
| is possible, however, that this statement may
| not be altogether correct, vague hints are
thrown out by Cubans in this city concerning
| some disaster to the gunboats ere long, and
| kindly ask all intenogators to wait and see" d"
| Thus far nothing has been heard of q startling
nature by the well-wishers of the fotilla N
| \. Times to-day.
