judge Watts.

The appointment of this gentleman as
commissioner of the Department. of Agri-
culture does not seem to meet with the ap-
proval of all the agricultural papers. In a
recent article on this subject Hearth and
Home thus refers to the present incumbent:
"When the announcement of the appoint
ment was made, the general question was,
Who is Judge Watts? The Report of the
Department for July answered the ques-
ton So far as we know, this is the first
time in the history of the Government
where an appointee was so obscure that a
"first-rate notice. of him had to be is
sued from the Government ?rinting-office.
Our Western brethren felt sore over this
appointment, and expressed their opinion
freely
awe did not join in their denunciations, as
the matter was past remedy but preferred
to wait to see what this new man would
do. So far as we know, he has not done
anything yet, but he has managed to undo
a good deal. One of his first official acts
has shown his profound incompetency for
his place, as he has disorganized the botan-
ical section of the department by dischar-
ging the Botanst. 1t may be because Doc
tor G. G. Parry, the Botanist, came from
Iowa, and anything Western is not aocep-
table at that seed shop, or it may be be-
cause Mr. Watts-his-name does not appre-
ciate botany.
What nuisance this Department of Ag-
riculture has been In its early years, it
was in charge of an incompetent who
could not be removed because of his influ-
ence through the kitchen-door of the White
House. Then Col. Capron came, and if
he did not make it particularly useful, he
at least made it respectable. Now we have
the great unknown, who is, however, in a
fair way to achieve notoriety. He has put
himself in antagonism to the scientific men
of the country. This may seem of very
little consequence for these scientific men,
like the forces which they study, operate ST.
lently--but just wait and see. Then the
agricultural press, especially at the West,
will accept this removal of Doctor Parry
as an overt act. Mr.. Watts appointment
is, we are told, regarded in Pennsylvania
as "good joke" We shall take care
that it is no joke at all before we get
through with him.
Is it not pitiful that department capa-
BILE of being made of the greatest service
to the country should be only a hospital
for broken down politicians?''

Burned to Death OH a Railroad Car.

Burned TO Death on Railroad Car.
The Pittsburg Gazette of recent date
says:
The Coroner has held an inquest on the
remains of the man burned to death OH the
Pan Handle railroad at Walkers Mills. 1t
appeared that the deceased was named An
drew Breen. He was about twenty years
Of age, and his parents reside in Cincinnati.
He was not authorized to ride in the car,
as appears, but was stealing ride"
Besides himself, there were two boys in the
car, also stealing q ride, and man, hay-
ing in charge the five horses and two carts.
The car in which they rode was an ordinary
stock car, with slat sides, and an opening
in the forward end, toward the top of the
car. The hay in the car caught fire from
a locomotive spark blown into the opening
in the end. In moment the car was in a
blaze. The two boys scrambled at once
through the hole in the end of the car, and
escaped unharmed Breen was making his
way toward the same place, when one of
the frightened horses ran to the spot and
thrust his head through the opening, re-
fusing to be coaxed or driven from the
place.
The door of the ear was locked on the
outside, so there was no possible means of
escape. In the meantime the train was
stopped and some men with pickaxes
promptly broke the Stats on one side of
the car, releasing the imprisoned men. The
man in charge of the horses was somewhat
burned, but not severely. Breen was so
badly injured that he died yesterday.

The Maiden's Prayer.

On the 2Sth ult., the jury in the case of
Jacob Rosenzweig accused of the murder
of Alice Bowlsby, found a verdict of guilty,
and Recorder Hackett sentenced the pri-
soner to seven years in Sing Sing. Mrs.
Rosenzweig and her daughter, Rosa, were
admitted into the box to bid the prisoner
farewell, Mrs. Rosenzweig cried bitterly,
exclaiming, "Oh, how can | bear this ?"
The violent rage of Rosa, who is a slightly
built girl of fourteen, was appalling.
Shrieking Historically, she knelt upon the
floor of the box, and cried out
"Oh, may God curse every one who has
gone against you, father. May their flesh
rot from their bones may their lives wither
up; may they die rotten. o, father,
though, / die for it, I'll have all their lives"
She arose threw her arms around her
fathers neck, and clung to him convulsive-
ly. Rosenzweig's face showed but little
signs of feeling. The father and daughter
were separated, and the former was taken
below. When he appeared outside, the
crowd hooted and hissed The prisoner
was placed in the van, which at once drove
off.

JUDGE PEARSON has discharged Evans
from arrest on the criminal charge upon the
ground that he was not a State official and
therefore can only be proceeded against in
a civil suit. 1t seems queer that Evans
should be a state agent when money due
the state is to be received, but only pri-
vate individual when it becomes necessary
to pay it into the treasury.

the following clause i.
"Included in the furnishing of the third
story is thirty tons Of type used for printing

When we state that that quantity of type
would set up over two millions of names,
the magnitude of the story will be appre-
ciated.

"wIpEp QUIZ

Such is the favorite expression OF the
Memphis Appcal and kindred spirits in
speaking of the amsndments to the Con
stitution of the United States, adopted
since the late war. They would notre-
spect the feelings or judgment OF men who
favored the amendments, by expunging
them from our organic law by any method
which would bear the semblance~ of
legality, but, as an evidence of contempt
for their political opponents, would just
,cipc them out-oblterate them-strike
them from our statute books, and their
authors from the face Of the earth. This
!" wiping out process has been fayorite
with such men as those conducting the
Appeal, but we had supposed they were
capable learning, at least in the. school
OF experience, the only place a certain class
of men ever learn, but it seems we were
mistaken even in this They thought the
people of the North were race Of towards,
five Of whom would not prove matchsfor
one chivalric Southern man, and, there
fore, as the compact which bound the
States together and formed the Federal
Union was distasteful to them, especially as
the offices were about to pass beyond their
reach, they would just "wipe 1t out" and
from confederaey in. which they could
hold office. 49, -. - j.
| They commenced Hwiping," but, after
four years they found thatit wouldn't "outn
worth cent, and gave 1t up in despair.
1t seems that the Appeal knows nothing
of its friends having given up the matter
and 1t is still "wiping" as IL it were able to
extinguish this whole "yaHkse nation Y
Now, if the appeal or anybody else, be-
lieves the principles involved In these
amendments are wrong, we would advise
them to pursue a different course. The
American people could be. induced to ex-'
punge them ifthey believed them wrong,
but this thing of 'wiping out, they will
not consent to. -. re hTaf 1o' Eds7.
