1t seems that to some peculiarly con-
stituted minds, death Is by no means
30 terrible as even the most trifling of
earthly troubles. A German in Phila-
delphia the other day upset a lamp in
a saloon and caused some inconsider-
able damage, and was so troubled by
the mischief he had done and the fear
of arrest that he incontinently threw
himself into well and was drowned.

ticing with lI.cocealed aeerbity the
fact that "half dozen japanese ladies
Of high birth have been sent to Amer
lea to be educated" expresses the
hope that the DaimiOs may not find
their daughters on their return con.
verted into Saratoga bellies. The Re-
view doubtless draws Its idea of the
Saratoga belle from the efforts of re-
cent English novelists, who depict her
as devouring hOminy, pumpkin pie,
and buttermilk for breakfast, and
playfully addressing her intimate
friends as "yOu ass"
It is well known that Frenchmen
will put an end to themselves on very
slight provocation, but the extreme
point OF indifference to life has per-
haps lately been exhibited by a young
man in Paris, who concluded his ex.
istence on account of his inability to
get off some tight boots. Having writ
ten memorandum to the effect that
ne had failed in everything from in
fancy, and at last had even failed to
draw of his torturers, he proceeded
to cut his throat with kitchen knife.
Some weeks ago a DR.. Colzey, OF
Columbus, Georgia, found in the desk
Of his young daughter Mamie, some
notes written by young man named
Ligon, of the same city, some of which
iutimated, rather than directly ex-
pressed, proposals Of an improper
character. The doctor loaded pistol
and sought for Ligon, but did not find
him till the ensuing day. Meeting
him on the street, Colzey shot him
dead with three balls. at prelimi-
nary examination, concluded on the
11th inst, the jury returned 8 verdict
OF voluntary manslaughter," and
DR.. Oolzey was held In the sum of
$1,000 for trial. The parties were of

IuVtstIpstleu Ints the case Of Iadps Bar.
nsFd.

New YORK, March 24.-COunsellor
Strahan testified yesterday before the
judiciary committee that, after the
papers were drawn up in the celebrat-
ed Injunction suit against Tammany,
he and his associates decided that If
any man had the boldness TO act judi
cially in the matter it was Judge Bar
nard. On being applied to, Judge
Barnard accordingly granted the In
junction, causing the present judge,
Barrett, to remark that that was
something he would not dare TO
do were he the judge. This
injunction entirely stopped the
city government and broke the ring.
No modification could be made to this
injunction, except upon the recon-
mendatiOn OF Comptroller Green.
Judge Barnard gave valuable aid to
the counsel, and made the Injunction
still stronger. Jay Gould testified
that he never paid any money to
Judge Barnard. J. Q. Bushnell, Of
the Union Pacific railway, testified
that the late Fisk told him (Fisk)
never received one cent Of the $50, 600
paid by the Union Pacific company to
ex-Judge Fullerton. 1t will be re-
membened that Fullerton testified
the other day that he paid this money
70 Fisk. The committe is now
anxious TO know where this money
went. No testimony Of interest was
adduced before the committee exam
fniBg the county clerks Office. Some
Of the lawyers said they had knowl-
edge Of the existence OF the abuses of
the county clerk In his testimony and
stated that the net profits of the Office
was not worth more than $25, 900.

The adherents of Tammany are busy
reorganizing that institution, and the
more prominent leaders say that the
men who have injured Tammany will

In the Night.

There comes unto ns all feeling Of
loneliness n shadow like the nigh.
comes across tho threshold, unbidden,
and sits 40 unwclcomo guest at onr
sides, and repeats sad stories Of tho
past, which we had hoped were lost
and forgotten, which lifts the curtain
of tho future and paints gloom and
sorrow on the honrs yet 10 come. The
heart strings swept by unclean hands,
give out a song linked with grieis and
cares, and the sunlight fees from ils
echoes, and leaves US in u trance. Like
Schiller's Rpbbcr, we realize that tho
world is still grand, and yet like hin,
We feel that we arc miserable in all
the outstretclied sublmiiy Of creation.
We feel then our unworthiness. and
VIC strive in vain TO bc men and wo.
men in the likeness and less, until wo
fall so far below the angels that wo
lose sight of them, and fail 10 catch, rs
we have often dono before, the very
rustic of their plumage. The songs
We had heard in other days come back,
and the faces we loved spring up and
smile upon us but all before US, thpso
around us, look blank aud We feel
alone in the grandest work Of tho
Master Whence the cause OF this
night upon the soul, we know not, buL
IL comes TO all of us at some time
Thank God, for it makes the sunlight
more blessed when it does comes II
makes the flowers bloom with q beauty
we knew not of before it strikes the
chord with gcntler touch, and gives
music as VIC dream of in our sleep,
when we dream Of Heaven.

Cause Of the Deterioration pf ~
Wheat Crop.

n ~
Frederick Watts, Commissioner of
Agriculture, in recent letter says:--
"Tho experience Of many yeara has
led me TO tho conclusion that tho de-
tcrioration of tho wheat cropis mainly
attributed to tho improper and un-
timely use of barn yard manure. In
our practice the clover sod is turned
down and planted with corn. Tho
ground Is again plowod in tho spring.
and sowed with oats, aud upon tho
stnbble of this crop nll tho manure Of
tho barn yard is pat, then plowed
again, and sowed with wheat. This
delicate plant is thus subject to tho
rawncss and grossncss OF barn-yard
food with all its germs aud dies, worms,
lice and bugs-secn,ingly sufficient
cause Of the unsuccessful growth of q
grain so pure and delicate as wheat.
Corn is tho hog of plants, and Will
devour food Of any quality and thrive
upon it. Here, then, upon tho sod,
10 be plowed for corn, is the place for
barn.yard manure. Bury IL deep, and
when the corn is cut off break the
slnbbles even with the ground during
winter, in tho spring harrow the ground
well, SOW your oats upon it and roll
II. You will thus keep your manuro
whore you put it, and not subject tho
oats crop to being thrown down By it.
When this crop is removed, bring onr
manure to the surface by deep plow-
ing and thorough tillagc. The barn;
yard manure having thus received
proper preparation, is = fit food for
tho wheat plant. Experience has
taught mo this lesson. On my farm
in Pennsylvania never fail 10 raise y
satisfactory crop of wheat, and | have
known no such thing as Midgc, Hes
sian fly, or army worm."

LOVE NOT ELoouEST.-Oh, young
ladies, You arc unwise in expecting
cloqucncc from n lover. A man who
really loves you will not be eloquent
before he is assured of your state of
feeling towards him not always, |
should say. on the contrary, rarely
then. When your beauty, your grace.
your accomplishments, good qualities,
etc have wrought on II mau 10 such
n degree that hc feels the world can
give him nothing comparable TO your
love-when the very sight Of you AT
u distance, makes his heart flnltcr--
when he feels jealous Of any man un-
der tho age Of sixty who approaches
you, and is tempted to injurc every
good hooking coxcomb who pays you
n complimcnt-when, half distracted
by the alterations of hope aud dis
pair, hc ventures ut last TO learn his
fate from your lips-do you expect
cloquencc ut such n time II you do,
you expect him to beha, as It man II,
love never would or could behave.
Nothing is easier than Irritation with
n woman you do not love. Ofcoursc
you like her little, or you would not
inkc tho trouble to flirt with her
But when you begin 10 like n woman,
ynu are no longer capable Of Irritation
When your ndmirer is awkward and
lmid, aud silent, and hardly dares 10
look ut you, when his hand tremblcs ut
the chance contact with yours, and he
hardly dnrcs to hold 1t lest he should
offend you; when at last, after sore
struggle, there comes tho falter'ng
avowal from the ovcrchargcd heart,
in these few bnt expressive words, ~
love you r. Then should feel well
pleased to dispense with the cloquence
of words.

ADAMS CouyTY.-We learn from tho
Gettysburg Compiler thst Adams
comfy is ahead again in the wheat
aud corn raising line. The Journal IN
question says "Mr. Charles W.
Gricst, OF Laiimorc township, this

awarded, by tho Pennsylvania Agri-
cultural Society, the first premium
for the best i've acres Of wheat in tho
Slate--yicld AZ bushels aud 80 lbs. per
acre and the first premium for tho
best five acres of corn-yicld l02
bushels and A lbs, shcllcd, per acre.
The wheat is of the Canada Midgc-

hew, l. called tho "Bcyd." The pre-
minms amounted to $50. These
awards nrc not only complimentary
to Mr.. Grest as first.class farmer,
but they 20 far towards proving that
