He Raised a New Variety.

In an Eastern paper we noticed an obitu-
airy of Martin Davis, of Sterling, Mass.
The only merit that we could learn from
the notice-besides the usual compliment
which all good men get-vas that he was
the originator of Davis Seeding potato.
At first this seems but a small matter
but when we reflect on the value of new
and good plant to the community, the only
wonder is that the Taisers of them are not
oftener than they are the recipients of COM
pliments. He who finds out new thing
in mechanics can get patent for it, and
thas get pecuniary reward but the raiser
of an improved vegetable, grain, or fruit,
seldom has even thanks. And yet the good
he confers on the community is immense.
In some departments Of culture, the intro
duction of a new variety has placed those
departments on a very different footing
than they were before. Thousands to-day
enjoy strawberries cheap and in abundance,
who never would have had the qualifications
but for HoyeY and Wilson, who raised two
of the most popular kinds known. In the
grape, the labors of Longworth and the
| discovery of Bull, who gave us the Con
cord, were the means of placing the grape
| in every household at ten to twenty cent.

On the morning Of the 18th instant A
party Of gentlemen left Alexandra upon
construction train for the purpose of mak-
ing the first trial trip across the high bridge
and trestle at Occoquan creek, and thereby
testing the soldity of tho work they
were accompanied by the engineer in
charge, Joseph Crawford. After rapid
and pleasant run of seventeen miles
they reached the rubicon, and locomo-
tive No. 1, thickly crowded with railroad
men, steamed slowly across, while the
whistle snorted exultingly "Onward to

quarter of mile in length and seventy-five
feet above the water in Occoquan creek,
so as to allow of the easy passage of ali

The ASCENDING PURsER.-The
Norfolk Day Book of Saturday gives some
facts concerning. w. II. Marshall, the
alleged embezzler of the funds of the
steamer 'Eliza Hancox." Marshall had
been slow in rendering his March returns,
and was hurried up for settlement
After he had fled and the safe was opened,
the books showed loss to the boat of
several hundred dollars, and package of
$400 belonging to Kimberly & Brothers,
of Norfolk, was also missing. A gentle
man, who had suspicioned that Mar
shall was dishonest, feels confident
that he reported ten or twelve passengers
less daily than he had received pay for.
Sometime since trunk was stolen from the
steamer, containing $1,000; the fact of
there being money in it was only known to
Marshall, and it is su.picioned he had the
trunk stolen through confederates, and as
matter of course the trunk and its con-
tents amounting to Sl,o5O, had to be paid
for by the boat. s4..-.rr ,-. -.

A TEMPERANCE ANECDoTE.-Dea
johnson is great temperance man, and
sets good example of total abstinence, as
far as he is seen. Not long ago he em-
ployed a carpenter to make some altera-
tons in his parlor. In repairing the cor
ner near the fireplace it was found necessa-
ry to remove the wainscotting, when 10
discovery was made that astonished every
body--a brace of decanters, tumbler
and a pitcher were closely reposing there,
as if they had stayed there from tho begin
ming. The deacon was summoned, and as
he beheld the bottles, he exclaimed:
swell, declare that is curious, sure
enough. 1t must be that old Bains left
them when he went out of this 'ere house
thirty years ago." 'Perhaps he did,
returned the carpenter ''but, deacon, the
ice in the pitcher must have been frozen
mighty hard to stay all this time !"

A Spirited Mormon.

Sat Lake City, April 13.-Elder A. NJ.
Musser, the Mormon telegraph superin-
tendent, has said that rather than surrend-
er one single principle of their religion,
the Mormons would make Moscow Of
Of Salt Lake City, tear up the railroads,
break down the telegraph lines, and de-
stroy millions of other property. He
spoke of Judge Mexican as "a dried-up
and corrupt old dog" and of the President
as useless Grant," and stigmatized him
and Others as corrupt. He also included
the Presidents wifei in his attack.

SHoEING HORSES. The Mirror and
Farmer truly says: sit is almost impos-
sible to get horses shod without having
the frogs cut away. All veterinary sur
geons, all horsemen, all leading black
smiths, agree that the frog should not be
pared one particle-not even trimmed
No matter how pliable and soft the frog
is, cut it away smooth on all sides, and
in two days it will be dry and hard as a
chip. You might as well cut off the
leaves of trees, and expect them to -four
ish, as to pare away the frog and have
healthy foot. The rough spongy part OF
the frog is to the foot what leaves are to
the trees-the lungs. Never have reds
hot shoe put upon the foot to burn it level.
If you can find blacksmith that is me-
chanic enough to level the foot without
red-hot iron, employ him. The burning
process deadens the hoof and tends to con-
tract it. If you do not think so, try the
red-hot poker on your finger nail, and see
if it will not affect the growth of that.
