Diminished Production in Virginia

The Richmond Dispatch speaks dole
fully of the material prospects of Vir-
ginla, asserting that the productions OF
the State have diminished every year
since the war. To show this it gives
figures extracted from its own CONNER
cial columns in relation,to wheat and to
bacco, and says:
The receipts by canal give an idea of
the production of tobacco in the James
River Valley-showing for five years
before and five years since the war, an
annual average diminution of nearly
half. In the State at large, the produc-
ton for five years before aud five years
since the war is as siXty-seven, to forty
five. This assumes that q hogshead Of
tobacco is not what il was formerly
But now every tub that weighs 700
pounds is rated q hogshead. Besides
this large quantity of tobacco is re-
prised and is thereby counted twice.
As to wheat, the diminution is still
greater, the production for five years
since the war being as one to four what
1t was for tue five preceding the war
In 1869 and 1870 considerable quanti-
ties OF wheat were received by the con-
solidated line from Northern Alabama
aud East Tennessee. The last crop was
an almost entire failure III that district
and the receipts fell off half, leaving us
to our own poverty. So great was this
that the Richmond millers were com
PEELED to buy cargoes of wheat at the
North to keep mills running and to fill
orders. Cattle, sheep, horses, hogs and
poultry, which enter SO largely into the
wealth and comfort of every commu-
nifty, have diminished at greater ratio
than the leading staples

Shame on the ruthless hands that tore away
The venerable ems, whose graceful domes
Of lofty verdure canopied these graves
Their overarching limbs through which the sun
Flickered with chastened ray, spread like a shield,
By nature interposed to guard the dead
And waved in dallianee with the tiff wind,
Or with il lapsed to monumental calm.
What cenotaph that human skill can rear
Can with their living symmetry compare?
What tinted window with their emerald?
What roof with their arcade of trailing leaves7
When spring renewed her miracle and clad
The naked branches in their June array
Then life's revival to the trusting soul
Prophetic breathed of Immortality.
Echoes of prayer, the jubiant refrain
OF choral anthem, and the organs peal,
Blent with their murmur in the sultry air,
While in their verdant depths the locust trilled,
And on their sprays bithe swung the yeow-blrd,
Their grateful umbrage then benignly screened
The silent church-yard from the noisy street:
Their roots weretwIned around the mould ring forms
Laid long ago beside the ancient tame,
To eSiled worshippers the more endeared
Because of these majestic trees, that wore
A guise familiar to their chidhood's home
Faiths pioneers and Freedoms martyrs slept
Beneath their shade and under their old boughs
The wise and brave of generations past
Walked every Sabbath to the home of God.
As grief, by time subdued, forgot to weep,
Still felt their dewy tears frost turned to gold
The leafy fringes of their dropping pail,
With every breeze a requiem they sighed;
In wreaths fantastic swayed above their tops
The mists of ocean, like funereal plumes;
While round their hoary trunks the gray moss ,rept
And softly marked the transit of the years
Of old the Church warden of the tomb,
Her ban restored the hand of sacrilege,
Her shrines were trophies of the sainted dead;
And pagan consecratiGn kept the groves
Serene and sacred Reverence is gone,
Her haunts laid waste not life and love alone,
Bereft OF fond seclusion, grow profane,
But the last home of poor mortality:
Nor memory fender plea, nor beautys charm,
Nor the long vigil Of these sylvan kings,
Could awe tle spoiler; vanished, like dream
OF grace and grandeur, are the stately elms,
M
And solace to the hearts that mourn their fall.

What to DO for Hydr0ph0bia.

DR.. Stephen Ware, of Boston. in his
ties tlmOny Of a recent case which grew
out of the injuries from the bite of q
mad dog, furnishes the following valu-
able advise:
In the case Of a bite by dog, where
the teeth of the animal penetrated the
flesh, whether the dog was known to be
mad or not, he should use the same
precautions He would wash the
wound with warm water, extract all the
virus possible by sucking the wound
with the lips, and then cauterise it
deeply with the cau8tic most readily
obtained, but should use potash if it
could be procured at once. The time
III which the effect of the bite of mad
dog would be seen varied from two to
three days to as many years, but if no
effects were felt after two or three
months, as a general thing the patient
might consider himself safe. Bites
made through clothing are seldom pro-
ductlye of much harm, as, even if the
dog is mad, the clothing absorbs the
virus before the teeth reach the flesh.
Most all the fatal cases ere where the
person WAS bitten in some naked
spot.

Dcatl, ot Il Patriarch.

Paul Lyons, the oldest man in Mo-
bile county, Alabama, died at his resi-
dence near Heron Bay, few days ago,
He was born in Savannah, Georgia, on
the 10Th day of July. 1760. He was
therefore nearly one hundred and
eleven years old at the time of his
death. lie was in Savannah during the
war of the Revolution, and was present
during the siege of that city, in 1879
by the French and American forces
under Count D'Estaing and General
Lincoln. A few years afterward he re-
moved, with his father, to the Gulf
coast. He married in 1909, when near
" fifty years old, yet had lived with
his wife, who survives him, for more
than sixty years. Mr.. Lyons leaves a
number of children, grandchildren and
ereat-granchildren, most of whom are
residents of the southern part of Mo
bile county. During his life the spot
on which he died hadbeen successfully
under the flags Of France, Great
Britain, Spain, the United States, the
Confederate States, and the United
States again.

Drilling Triangular Holes for Blasting.

A correspondent of the English Me-
chanlc states that in the Cleveland dis
tnct it is now usual when boring tor
blasting purposes to make the holes Of
triangular section instead of round,
as in the conventional style, and to
effect this the boring bar or jumper is
partly turned on each side of its cutting
alternately. No difficulty is expert
enced in boring the holes to this shape,
and they are found more effective than
round holes, the corners forming points
at which the fracture of the material
operated on appears to commence, the
line of fracture usually forming pro
longation of the triangle. The holes
average three feet six inches in depth,
and are generally made in thirty or
forty minutes. The powder charges
vary from one to two pounds, accord
ing to circumstances.

The air is thick with falling snow,
The white drifts fill the street:
But, decked with flowers, the church, within,
As summer time is sweet,
My earliest and my truest friend
To-day bride will be
Strew Loves own roses i'll her path,
For worthy Love is she.
And glad to Irvine her bridal wreath
OF orange flowers was /,
Though well know the wedding kiss
Is Friendships last Goodbye"
Her girlhoods hopes and fears knew,
Its pleasures and its cares,
But in womans highest bliss
No other woman shares.
And, grateful that this joy is hers,
do not grieve to see
Her willing footsteps choose path
That leads away from me.
For well l know the stars must fade
From out the sun-lit sky,
And eycrmore the wedding kiss
Is friendships last "Good-bye!"

Artificial StOHe.

The manufacture of artificial stone is
tolerably well known to consist of ce
menting sand-grains by means OF a So
luton of soluble silicate. An impor-
tant extension of this principle has
been lately made; by substituting
emery for sand, emery disks of great
hardness are now constructed, which
are pronounced to be excellent fo1
sharpening saws and the like.
