INSANITY CURED About two years
ago a worthy and estimable citizen of
Abingdon, was sent to the State Asylum
at jacksonville, and has remained there
ever since, except he was sent home pro-
nounced cured about six months ago.
He remained at home few days, and
was returned to Jacksonville for treat
ment. Two weeks ago he was again sent
home, pronounced hopelessly incurable
by that institution. On arriving at
home, he spoke to his girls and said:
"Well, girls, you are keeping house alone,
are you ?" When his wife entered the
room, he started as from dream
throwing both hands to his head and
pressing it, exclaining, my God. Jane,
l thought you were dead-is it indeed
your" and seemed completely overcome
by his emotions, and strange to relate
this sudden shock did what medical skill
failed to accomplish. 1t restored him to
his right mind, and there is no reason to
suppose from his behavior on our streets,
or when with his friends, that there will
be like recurrence of misfortune to
him Abingdon (Ill.) Democrat.

An exchange thus describes novel
steam craft built to compete for the prize
of one hundred thousand dollars offered
by the New York State for the best mode
of steam navigation for canals THE
advantages claimed for this boat over
others is that there is no lifting of the
water and, as consequence, speed is OBJ
tanned with less expenditure of power.
She has no rudder but is guided by the
action of the propelling wheel, which is
attached to an upright shaft. Instead of
the usual revolving paddle-wheel this
boat Is propelled by rotary, and its di-
rection is changed at will by an eccentric
attached to the wheel shaft, which can
be changed in any direction as desired
The boat is so completely under the con.
troll of the steelsman that it can be turn.

USEFUL HINTS TO YOUNG MEN-How
many young men ignorantly deny them
selves fortune! There is scarcely
young men of good sense in this city,
who cannot save 800 easily from his
annual earnings, and if he will forego
cigars, billiards, and mint juleps, he
can save double that amount Figures
sometimes produce almost incredible re
suits Thus, for instance, if young man
upon his twentieth birthday will invest
800 in any stock paying ten per cent,
and annually thereafter will invest the
same amount and the accumulation of
interest, he will be worth when he is
thirty years old, $l,753 when forty years
old, $4,000; when fifty years Old $l8, $50;
when sixty years old, $48,700. How sim
pie, then, is the plan by which youth of
the present day can pass his old age in
comfort and luxury. He has only to reg
ulate his expenses, so as to save one ham,
dred dollars each year from his income.
If the amount saved be larger, then the
sum total will be increased in the same
proportion. Only think of it, that $500
saved annually and invested in ten per
cent. stock, will, in ten years amount to
$25, 1885,; in twenty years to $56,268; in
thirty years to SITS, 84l; in forty years to
S452,838. No wonder, then, that the
Rothschilds have, amassed such bound
less wealth.

One OF. the oldest questions ever sub
mitted to lawyers is now puzzling those
of Hartford, Conn 1t seems that man
who recently died there left a widow,
childless, but expecting shortly to be,
come mother. By his will he provided
that if the expected child should prove
to be boy, two.thirds of the property
should go to him, and one-third to the
widowed mother, If, however, the child
proved to be girl, only one third Of the
estate was to go to her, and two thirds to
the mother. The result, of course, was
awaited with an interest even greater
than that usually bestowed upon such
events The result is-the widow has
become the mother of twins-a boy and
girl.

DOLCE FAR NIENTE.
BY ROBERT B. ARNOT.

In warmth Of langud summer noon,
wander forth with rod and hook,
And loitcr down through sinuous paths,
And seek my own familiar nook,
Where willow branches bend to kiss
The dimples of the brook
The pendant boughs the sunlight hide,
But all unread is VOlumed theme,
And rod and reel are all forgot
Though calmly sleeps the people stream
Or, stirred by trembling breezes, wakes,
And babbles of its dream
For quivering aspen's leafy tongues
Are fraught with legends, as of yore,
That blend with beat OF mimic waves
That murmur on the sedgy shore;
And, dreaming in the NOTED air,
l listen to their lore
Or laugh to hear the tickle wind
Prate changeless love to perfumed lips
Of star-eyed flowers, whose gentle life
Too swiftly from their petals slips
The while the jealous bee bemoaRs
The fragrance that it sips.
The cricket shrills amid the sedge;
hear the dry-voiced locust call:
The agile squirrel lightly leaps
Along the crumbling orchard wall,
Where breaks the sunshine into smiles,
And decks Of shadow TALL
note, while thus the slumbering hours,
RECALLED with idle dreams, go by,
The emerald of enameled fields,
The amber of the ripening rye,
The white of franc ed summer clouds,
The blue OF summer sky
The flaming orioles scarlet robe, u
The crimson of the robins breast,
The painted birds violet hue,
The startled quail in russell dressed,
The duskY arch of swallows wing,
The blackbird's ebon crest
And drink the balm that nature pours,
The peace her bounteous hands bestow,
I'LL sunset shadows tinge the turf,
And sunset sky is all aglow,
And noiselessly the brook begins
Its retrograding flow.

The Trophy Tomato is the result of
twenty years, or more, of study and
selection. Its good qualities are made
permanent, and with little care it can be
Kept up to its present standard of ex-
celsence- The French, VINO cultivate
the sugar beet for it's saccharine qualities,
nave, by selection and cultivation, pro
duced beet that yields nine per cent
OF sugar, instead of four and a half, in
the root, with which they began. The
wheat plant is susceptible of very great
Improvement, and most of the varieties
now cultivated are the result of a careful
selection of the largest seed, or the long,
est and fullest ears A larger crop Of
corn can be grown by selecting the best
ears from the most productive stalks
Some farmers do this hsbitually, and find
the plant very tractable in their hands.
The amount of fodder in the stalk can be
increased or diminished by the selection
of seed and change of soil. Every plant
will be found plastic to human skill, and
every animal can he nodded in successive
generations to our convenience and taste.
Even the Canada wild goose, whose
feathers seemed to be fixed, hopeless of
change, has yielded to the influences of
domestication ~ BrJnxville, and broken
ont into new colors. White wild geese
may yet be in the market. These plastic
qualities of the plants and animals under
our care should be carefully studied and
turned to economical use. 1t will give
us more grass and grain to the acre;
larger potatoes ard of better quality;
more lucious fruits, and longer keepers;
better mixers in the stall; working

THE MANGO TREE.
BY G.. KINGSLEY.

He wiled me through the furry croft;
He wiled me down the sandy lane.
He told his boys love, soft and oft,
Until told him mine again.
We married and we sailed the main
A soldier and a soldiers wife.
We marched through many burning plain
We sighed for many gallant life.
But his-God kept it safe from harm.
He toiled, and dared and earned command
And those three stripes upon his arm
Were more to me than gold or land.
Sure he would win some great renown;
Our lives were strong, our hearts were high
One night the fever struck him down.

Round yonder stems his children played;

IT'S I, not they. am gone and dead;
They live; they know they feel they see.
Their spirits light the golden shade
Beneath the giant mango tree.
All things, save I, are full of life
The minas pluming velvet breasts;
The monkeys, in their foolish strife;
The swooplng hawks, the swinging nests.
The lizards ba8king on the soil;
The butterflies who sun their wings
The bees about their household toll
They live, they love, The blissful things.
Each tender purple mango-shoot
That folds and drOops so bashtul down
It lives; it sucks some hidden root;
It rears at last a broad green crown.
It blossoms; and the children cry,
