A RAGING PRINCESS.
The Story of q Necklace.

The Crown Princess of Prussia,
Victoria's eldest daughter, inherits
more of her mothers traits than any
of her other descendants, among
which is a Jealous virtue not to be
despised. and something of temper.
She recently went to her ieweler to
buy n diamond necklace. and selected
n very beautiful one. something quite
new. but noticed that the head OF the
establishment. who. of course. was
serving her. tried I'm vain to suppress
a pecniiar smile. The Princess. al

The Buried Treasure and Archieves
Of the COnfederacy.

The Theta Delta Chi fraternity,
which met at the Astor House, New
York, in February last, listened to an
Grafton by William l. Stone, who,. in
the course of some interesting remi-
niscences of the rebellion, spoke of
David Tilghman as the officer select
ed by the Confederate Government
to take charge of its treasures and
archieves.
On the morning of Mr.. Davis cap
ture, says Mr.. Stone, Tifghman watt
ed upon him at his bedside and said !:
"Mr. Davis, by this map you may
see that the enemy are here; such
and such is the situation of the roads.
If you will come with me, you will
be able to leave the country i'm safety.
II you do not, you will be captured In
five hours" TO which Mr.. Davis re-
piled curtly, that he "knew his own
business best" Tilghmun continued,
"Very well, sir; have been entrust-
ed with the treasure and archieves,
and propose to secure them, even at
the peril of the loss of your favor and
my life. / shall start ut once, by the
route l have marked out"
ihc ieouit 10 WclI huOWn. Ill less
than five hours Mr.. Davis was a pris-
Oner, but the archives were safe.
When few days after, in the recesses
of the forest Tilghman learned that
all was lost, he, alone, and with his
own hands, buried the treasures and
archives; unless, during the four days
that elapsed between parting with me
and his untOward death, he revealed
the spot, the secret as to the where
abouts of the archives is forever bur-
led; and as long as they shall be kept
from the pen of man, so long shall
the story be a monument to our broth
er's unswerving fidelity. This is the
true history of the archives of the
Southern Confederacy, although rum
ors are, from time to time, set afloat
of their being now in the vaults OF
this bank, and now of that.

European War and American PrOs-
perity.


Says the New York Financial
Chronicle:
"The effect of the war upon this
country cannot now be of firstimport-
ance. Uncertainty of any kind
makes capital timid, and depresses
securities; and our bonds have suffered
in European markets, in company
with those of other nations. But this
result is temporary (; and there is no
reason to expect that any lasting dis
trust of our credit can be produced by
q broil which merely makes its excel
lence more prominent, In view of the
fact that we are TO remain at peace
whoever fights beyond the seas. In
all other respects, the war can only
add to the immediate prosperity of
trade and industry in the United
States. While Europe fights we
must send her food and clothing at
our own prices, as well as bonds and
stocks in which she may wish to in
vest little of her savings at a dis
tance from the storm. After the first
furry Of disturbance Is over, the course
of the exchanges and the value of all
our securities which depend on active
trade can scarcely fail 10 improve"

An Appeal for the Removal Of the
Confederate Dead.

BY correspondent and other means,
. has been brought to the special at
tention of the Hollywood Memorial
Association, of Richmond, that over
three thousand Confederate soldiers
are buried on and near the battlefield
of Gettysburg,
David Willis, Esq, President of
the National Cemetery Company,
says in a letter to Gen. Fitzhugh Lee:
"There has never been any action by
the Board of Managers of the Sol
diers' National Cemetery Company
here in reference to the disposition OF
the remains of the Southern dead
lying on this battle field. Neither is
there any action contemplated. The
charter of the Association provides
only for the interment of the remains
of those who fell in defense of the
Union. q
"There should be something done
with the remains of the Southern
soldiers. There are about six hundred
marked graves, and they are fast be-
coming obliterated. Their names
might be preserved, and the remains
gathered together in q cemetery or
burying ground, If any one would
take the matter in hand"
Their trusted chief, Gen. r. e. Lee,
whom they followed, and fighting
under whose leadership they fell, APP
proves the plan of removing their
bodies to our own soil.
The Hollywood Memorial Associa-
ton have the disposition to under
take this work, but do not possess the
ability, unless generously aided by
friends throughout the South. They
offer ample grounds in their cemetery,
and also the aid of their Association
to prosecute the work, should it be
faund practicable to remove the bod
les to Richmond.
To accomplish this purpose, means
must be raised by the earnest efforts
of the survivors of the Confederate
army, the mothers, the sisters, tbe
fathers and brothers, and friends of
the slain. Every Southern State has
representatives at Gettysburg. Will
not active men and women, in every
city and town and county, at once
volunteer to collect and send contri-
buttons?

IT Is asserted that per cent. of the
lunatics in Charenton Asylum,
France, are victims to the use of hair
dye. Foulness of breath Is one ofthe
particular signs Of insanity caused by
lead or litharge poison. Collie and
stiffness, and finally total
loss Of memory, are among other
symptoms. The Director of Charen-
ton says that If he were q judge he
would attach very little Importance
to the evidenceof any man or woman
in the habit of using hair-dye.

WooD ASHES FOR STRAWBERRIES.
There is no better fertilizer for straw
berries than ashes. We remember
that one of the best crops we ever
had was raised when the only manure
used was wood ashes. All soils will
not alike be benefited by such appli-
cation; but 1t is always safe to use
ashes In connection with other ma
nures. If ashes only are used, there
are fewer weeds, as no seed can be in
troduced by the manure.

Asa rule, farmers are much more
ambitious to get big prices than big
crops. There are few farmers whose
average production could not be
doubled In a very short time by more
capital and labor. IL Is safer to use
capital in farming than in almost any
other business. The credit of the
pillow Is quite as good rs that of the
loom and anvil and the capital will
come IL 1t h called for. Use more
manure; get thirty bushels Of wheat
where you now get fifteen, and eigh-

get forty. The quantity of grain per
acre is mainly question Of manure
