as to its merits for accuracy as to time,
neatness of finish, and durability as a
steady, reliable time-piece. The watch
bears their firm name, and is guaran-
teed in every respect.

YEARS AND LEAP YEARS.

The year 1900 will not be leap year;
1896 and 1904 will be leap years. To ex-
plain this we must give a short account of
the change of style in the calendar effect
ed by Pope Gregory Kill He found
that the error of eleven minutes in the
Julian calendar had amounted to ten days.
He therefore deducted ten days in Octo-
Der, 1882, and to prevent a recurrence of
the error, it was ordered that every year
ending century should not be considered
leap year, except the multiples of the
year 400. Thus 1000 was a leap
year, but 100 was not, nor 1900,
nor will 1900 be; but 2OOO will
be a leap year, and every four hun
dredlh year after it. In England and
America the Gregorian calendar was not
adopted until 1882; consequently, with
us, 100 was leap year, and we are
eleven days out. These were substracted,
and at the time the measure enacting the
alteration caused considerable uneasiness,
and some few riots among the poorer
people, who could not comprehend the
matter, and raised the cry of ''Give us
back our eleven daysl" The Greeks and
Russians still retain the old style, so that
there is now a difference of twelve days
between their dates and ours, because they
have considered 100 and 1900 as leap
years.

His View of the Situation.
New YORK, May 6.-Gen. Thomas Jor-
dan, late Commander-in-Chief of the
Cuban insurgents, arrived on the Moro
Castle from Havana this morning and pro-
ceeded to the residence of Senior Lemus,
Cuban Minister to this country to deliver
an important dispatch. Gen. Jordan is
accompanied by Col. Agramonte, brother
to Gen. Agramonte, Col. Castillo, Maj.
Bettan Court al d other officers of the
Cuban army, and after their visit to Wash
ington, will return TO Cuba. His stay in
this country which has reference to the
procuring of munitions of war, will be
brief
Gen. Jordan reports that the Cuban
cause is in better condition than at any
previous stage, ard that the success of the
revolution depends only on time. The
Cuban army now numbers ten thousand
men we'll armed and equipped, and sup
Piled with artillery and mountain howit-
GERS sufficient for the present needs of the
service. IDc season is now in favor of the
revolutionists, giving them what they most
need-time for organization and collection
of supplies. There are not over eighty
foreigners in the Cuban army.
Gen. Jordrn says the Cubans are in no
way discouraged at the prospect and that
the Spauiards have their opportunity for
putting down the revolution.
Gen. Jordan left Cuba in small sloOp
and when three days out he was chased by
five steam gunboats, but the storm arising
he made his escape.

There will be meeting of the Horti-

interest. II will be the last regular meet
ing of the members previous to the spring
exhibition on the 18th. 10Th. and 10th DAYS
of May, when the full preliminary arrange
ments for the same will be discussed and
acted upon. All the members, it is
thought, of the Association will be present
and important considerations as connected
with the Fair will be presented. The list
of premiums has already been published,
and it is an exceedingly liberal one. The
Fair, as before indicated, will no doubt be
the most successful ever held in Nashville,
and those having it in charge should not
fail to be present. Besides the importance
of the meeting in business sense, there
will be large and elegant variety of flow
ers from the various nurseries on exhibit
tion-many of them very rare and beauti-
full. The interest of the meeting should
secure full attendance of members. and
the attractions presented will call out many

CONGRESSIONAL.
SENATE.

l oA11tkA IL
WASHINGTON, May 6-The Senate reso-
luton for a final adjournment to July
was agreed to-26 to 20.
A protracted discussion ensued touching
the pending measures and the possibility
of disposing of them within the limited
time indicated by the adjournment re-
solution.
Mr. Stewart feared the time would be
too short to allow of important legislation
made necessary by the Fifteenth Amend
ment. The colored people had for fifteenth
years been denied the protection of the
law. They were excluded from testifying
in our courts; denied every other right and
the interposition of the power of the Gov
eminent was needed to vindicate alike the
Fifteeth Amendment and our treaty stipu-
lations.
Mr.. Cragin was apprehensive of the de-
feat Of the Utah Polygarny bill if SO early
day as July was fixed for adjournment
For the sake of the Republican party he
hoped some remedy would be devised for
the system of outrages inaugurated under
the dictation of Brigham Young.
On motion of Mr. Chandler the resolu-
ton was finally postponed until Friday,
May 20, by yeas 81, nays %.
Appropriations.
At 2:25P. NJ the Legislative Executive
and Judiciary Appropriation bill was taken
up and various amendments was reported
by the Committee on Appropriations were
agreed to.
An amendment to discontinue the pub
ication in the newspapers was debated.
Mr.. Williams favored the continuation
of the system as the most effective means
of diffusing information as to what were
the laws among the people.
Mr.. Morton said rather than abolish the
system. he would provide for a newspaper
publication in every congressional district.
This might be expensive but if it was i'm
portant to enact laws, it was equally i'm
portant to give the people the means of
finding out what they were.
Mr. Ross thought the public money
could not be appropriated to better pur-
poses.
Mr.. Anthony said the publication of the
laws in newspapers was an entire waste of
public money. 1t costs the Government
hundreds of thousands of dollars year,
and publication was not completed in
most papers until long after the adjourn
ment of the session. The amendment was
agreed TO in committee, with the under
standing that the nays and yeas vote was
to be taken in the Senate.
Mr.. Anthony gave notice of an amend
ment abolishing the Blue Book.
Adjourned till Monday.

rrrtect inc shade rrccs.

There is nothing which lends more at
fractions to city and at the same time
produces so much comfort with so little
outlay, as shade trees. Shaded streets,
green yards, and outrageous trees often
attract more attention from visitors and
elicit more remark when they are sone
than magnificent and deliberately finished
residences. 1t is a misfortune that in the
founding and growth of large cities the
native primeval trees are cut away, instead of
being topped and pruned and left standing
wherever they could be permitted to re-
main. No subsequent growths can ever
supply their places. We have in Nashville
andin the suburbs innumerable shade trees,
the result of transplanting and care, with
here and there native growth spreading
out its green branches. Let them be pro-
tected with care and let rs have more of
them as among the chief adornments Of
our beautiful city.
