one of John Browns brave band Of
twcnty-two. OF the six who ESCAPED
from Harper's Ferry, Owen Brown, son
of the leader, alone IL alive. Four Of
them died q soldiers during the war,
and these two only lived to see the grand
victory which they first taught ~ might

such . strange party IS that which up
held John Brown IN his daring expedi-
ton. Hopeful because they were brave,
with the surety OF right on their side,
thew came together, with the wide differ
ence in character and education,
and were held together By their
love for liberty. Some Of them
could claim only the refinement OF this
love, while others we're fitted tor any
position of honor that could be given
them. The survivor, Owen Brown is
perhaps the greatest "character OF them
all. Noticeably eccentric, with strange
mingling of gentlness and roughness,
sentiment and coarse practicabiIity,
which even his intimate friends cannot
understand, with one of the warmest OF
hearts and the readiest hand, no leads a
wandering kind of life, seeming to cut
himself Of from old friends and associ-
atoms, and yet after awhile returning to
them or letting them know by some
kind of message that they are not for
gotten. He seems literally man with
out home, for realizing bis restless dis
nos;tion he has never married or formed
anv ties that could not easily be shaken

FARMING AS A BUsINRss.-The follow
ing is from the Farmer 1nd artisan: GA
man who is not smart enough to run store,
is not smart enough to run farm. Farmers are
not to be made of what is left after lawyers,
doctors, ministers, and merchants are picked
out and if man fails on farm it is not
likely he will succeed in store, for itrequires
more talent to be thriving farmer than to
be On average merchant. The one cause of
great value is the disproportion between a
mans farm and his capital. A farmar's capt.
tai is skill, labor, and his money. Ifhe has
little cash, he must have no more land than
he can thoroughly manage by his own person
al labor. Every acre beyond this is an en-
oumbrance; one acre we'll worked, is more
profitable than twenty acres skinned over.
1t is this greed of land by farmers that have
not the capital to keep it, that keeps 80 many
poor. Small farms are BETTER than large
ones, simply because they are better suited
to th. capital Of common farmers. Large
farmers with large capital, are better than
sm'll ones Farming is a good business for
al! mon who conduct il on proper principles,
aid have capital according to the size OF their
farms, and bad one for everybody else."

A somewhat ludicrous scene occurred in
one ofthe large dry goods stores in Troy the
other evening. Three ladies entered tie
store for the purpose Of examining some
ready-made suits In the department devo-
ted to this class Of goods several dummies"
are used, upon which different styles Of goods
are displayed. One of the ladies walked up
to one Of the "dummies" and commenced to
feel the dress which covered it. Supposing
it was placed there as a sample, she handled
it pretty thoroughly, and then called the at
tention of her companions to it. One of the
others also felt Of tho stuff, and remarked: /:
"Why, that's homely stripe" The third
lady followed by saying: "It won't pay for
making up" Wbsreupon the dummy"
turned her head and smiled, to the uttsr as.

question, who discovered that instead Of

Since Lucca's departure from Berlin
several spicy anecdotes of the lively prima
donna have been going the rounds Of the
press. During rehersal Of "L'Afrieains''
the celebrated German tenor, Waehtei, once
a pOstboy, called the charming capatrice "a
little Jswsss," complement she returned
by telling him that he was "low cabman." !"
At this Wachtel became drssdfully excited
and annoyed, and so far forgot himself as to
lay hands on his fair antagonist, who, how
ever, left glowing impression of her hand
upon his face. She refused to sing with him
in the evening, as he had to kiss her in the
opera, and she was afraid that he would bite
her nose off, Matters were smoothed over,
however, and instead Of biting her gave her
an ardent and repentant hug that she will
never forget.

The CHAMPION DEAD BEAT.-Sergaant
Bates. the champion dead beat of North
America-the individual who won consid-
erable some of money on wager that he
could carry the Union flag oil through the
South unnlolcsted, has just taken in another
bet of a thousand dollars, by marching soins
through Scotland and England, from Glas-
gov to Guildhall, in I.odon, bearingaloft the
same banner he carried through the South
ern States.
The aattering reception which this motor
ions dismounted dragoon met with from the
Coekncys is thus related in the London
Teteguph, and must have caused the heart
of Bates to glow with patriotic fire.
"But the circumstance Of every window
being full of faces, one might have said that
all the population had turned into the streets.
From roof. tree and parapet, from easement
and balcony, jutted forth frequent counter
parts of that banner which had been brought
across the Atlantic by the redoubtable SER
geant and at intervals were seen the royal
standard of England and the Union Jack.
The open barouchc at the door of the hotel
was converted into close carriage, as the
rain seemed less and less inclinedto relent.
Mounted outside the vehicle were the Ameri-
can and British colors, one flag on either
side. A postillon rode one Of the two grays,
and the horses heads were dccked with the
stars and stripes Having waited till twen-
ty-ave minutes past the hour Of eleven. to
give the rain chance of holding up, Ser
geant Bates and his companions emerged
from the hotel. protected by party of po-
lice, and entered the carriage. The real,
veritable banner which the Sergeant had
borne from Gretna to London was carried in
his hand J.; that affixed to tho exterior Of the
barouche being merely duplicate ensign.
The carriage at FIRST got away at pace suf-
6cient to afford the principal occupant lit
tie respite from manual exercise but its
progress was impeded as the crowd grew
denssr, and proposals were again and again
urged by the gathering throng that the
horses should be taken ont and the carriage
drawn by muscular admirers and friends
This offer was repeatedly nesatived, but near

thoroughfarc the carriage had turned south.
ward from Oxford street, the multitude had
their will. Thence down st. James street
and along Pail Nall, where the Sergeant
saluted each of the military clubs in passing,
the carriage was pulled along rapidly by the
crowd--so rapidly, indeed, that Guildhall
was reached halfan hour before the appoint
ed time Of o'clock. Here the assemblage
was great and demonstrativc. A ceremony
was gone through of dipping the British and
and United States flags toward one another,
so as to make them kiss and the Sergeant
planted the Stars and Stripes in the middle

SELF DgcEPTIoN.-Ths readers Of hist: ry
aud biography are often startled at the sim
gular ignorance of themselves, displayed by
eminent men, literary or political leaders Of
their nation and age. Or. Holmes says in
one Of his witty papers, that every man has
three charsctsrs-frst, as he looks at him.
self; second, as he looks on Others third,
ss he is in reality. Only the omniscient eye
can detect the latter in its true proportions /;
but between the first and second, thcre is Of.
ten worldwide difference. Some Of the
contrasts between estimates Of self, recorded
in diaries and correspondence, and the judg
ments passed by society, may interest as
we'll rs amuse.
Phillip, the Second, of Spain, lives in his
tory, us one of the most remorseless Of ty-
rants His bntcheres, in cold blood, of
thousands of noble men and women, for no
crime, but for difference Of religious opin-
ions; his many wars, with reckless waste of
life and treasure; aud his deliberate treach-
cry in negotiations and treaties, give him
a foremost place among the monsters whom
the world detests. Mr.. Motley gises ter
ribe verdict, which receives general as
sent: {" If Phillip possessed single virtue,
it has eluded. the conscientious -rasAarsh Of
the writer Of these pages. If there are vi
ces-as possibly there are-from which he
was exempt, it is because it is not permitted
to human nature to attain perfection even
in evil"
1t would seem impossible that one who
broke his word and oath without scruple, and
whose reign impoverished his own kingdom
and deluged Europe with blood, could im-
pose on his conscience a good opinion Of
himself. But no saint or martyr ever had
such lofty view of his purity Of life and
singleness of aim as this abhorred tyrant.
He said Of himself on his death-bed, "In
all my life, have never consciously done
wrong to any one. If ever / have commit
ted an act of injustice, it was done unwit-
tingly, because deceived by circumstances !"
He told his son to observe closely his fathers
condition, that when he was laid low, he
might have conscience void offence.
Robespicrre, the tyrant Of the French
Revolution, revelled in bloodsbed. The
work of the guillotne gave him daily joy,
and with an unsparing hand he sent to the
block, genius, rank, wealth and beauty, if
they stood in the way Of his ambitious
schemes. One finds much to admire in the
aims of the Girondists, and can look With
charity on some Of the crimes Of the impu-
sive Murat, or the large-hearted Dapton ;
but the narrow.mindsd, cold, selfish Robe
spierrs swakens universal adherence. But
this monster Of crime, said coolly Of him
self; Posterity will sustain the award Of
my own conscience, that l have been unself-
ish in my desires, patriotic in my aims and
benevolent even in my seventies"

The visit of the President to his father at
