A GOOD SELECTIoN.-One of the most sig
nificant appointments yet made by President
Grant is that of General Lafayette McLaws to
the United States Marshalship for the district
of Georgia. In making this appointment the
President has risen above the level OF mere
partyism and sectionalism, and raised himself
in the estimation of right-minded men every
where. The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel
says:
The report is published that the President
has already appointed, or will appoint in few
days, General LaF Fayette McLaws United States
Marshal for the district of Georgia. We most
sincerely hope that the report will prove cor
rect, convinced as we are, that no appointment
can be made which will prove more s.-tisfacto-
ry to the people of the State. In the first
place, the appointee was a gallant soldier in
the Confederate amy, and in the second place,
he has been aud is staunch and pronounced
Democrat-two qualifications not usually pos
sessed by Federal officials His political senti-
ments are we'll known to the President, and his
appointment, if he obtains it, will be due sole
y to his merits and the personal relations ex,
listing between himself and the President II
we recolect Alright, the Confederate General
and the Union leader were classmates at the
military academy of West Point, and the inti-
macy and friendship which commenced in the
school room was continued through their sub
sequent life in Che regular army, and was
strong enough to survive conflict in which
they espoused different sides. The appoint
ment has in it nc political significance what
ever. 1t is simply recognition of former ties
and associations

WHY CHILD LOVES SUGAR.-The crav-
ing of children for sweets is we'll known to be
one of the most imperious of their appetites.
It has reference probably to that ceaseless ac,
tivity which especially characterizes the age OF
childhood. 1t may be that sugar performs IN
stances tunt in the bodies of adults. AS it under
goes oxidation-is burnt up, circulating with
the blood--it may be the source of that power
which enables them to keep in motion from
morning to night. Besides this, it is known
that it renders easier and more perfect the
digestion of the albuminous food upon which
their growth depends. In respect to these off
ces it is therefore nearly essential to their we'll
being. And yet how strong, from generation
to generation, has been the prejudice. against
sugar. Under what difficulties, and in the
face of what discouragements and protests have
our children obtained the luxury.-Hon'e and
School,

One of our exchanges gives the following
conundrum: "Why is it that young fellow

midnight without making noise enough for the
old folks to hear them through the partition,
but can't sit in public place five minutes
without annoying the whole house with their
gigglng and talk"

AGRICULTURAL STATIsTIcs.-The report OF
]. R. Dodge, statistician of the Department OF
Agriculture, is replete with facts illustrating the
present condition of American agriculture in
some of its most important aspects. One OF
these is the systematic crop rotation, the extent
to which it is practised being proof of its ad-
yantages and of the wastefulness of unsystem-
attic culture. Another point in the investiga-
tion concerns the results of soil improvement
by commercial fertilizers, farm-yard manures,
the use of gypsum and lime, and other cheap
mineral applications, clovering, and other
green manuring. The tenor of the returns on
this subject favors, by a marked preponderance
of testimony, the fertilizers of the farm in con-
necton with system of restorative cropping
and stock feeding, rather than the general use
of expensive commercial stimulants. The pro-
ductiye resources of the country are strlklngiy
suggested by showing how small portion OF
the crops is grown by the aid of any means of
fertilization whatever. The report also illus.
trates the comparative profit Of feeding and
selling products consumable by farm animals,
by examples in all sections of the country with
all kinds of stock, and shows che popular pre-
ference for the different branches of husbandry
based upon the profit derived from each. The
larger portion of the report deals with the
causes of Encouragement felt by the farmers OF
the country at the present time, with sugges-
tions of remedies. Among these the most
prominent are the high and discriminating
rates of railroad freights and the high price for
farm labor, in comparison with the net receipts
for products. The labor question in the South,
especially with reference to its scarcity and in
stability, is fully presented with hints of par.
tial if not com plete remedies. A long list of
local causes of Encouragement suggests the
wonderful variety of conditions under which
agricultural enterprise is conducted. The re-
turns as whole show great awakening of the
rural mind, strong progressive tendency in
practical directions, n consciousness of power
and determination t. rcise it for the pub
lie good and to secure equitable returns to rural
labor and capital.

PROMOTED EXPOSITION AT VALPARAISO.
The exposition mania has reached South
America, arrangements having been
made to hold an International Exhibition
at Valparaiso, Chile, about year before
the United States Centennial Commem-
aration at Philadelphia Although Chile
NAV not have much to exhibit of her
own products, except wheat, -four and
her rich minerals, the Exposition cannot
fail to exercise healthy stimulus upon
the Spanish American Republics. A year
ago California contributed largely to Chill
ran prosperity Between 1916 and 1855
this State drew its supplies of bread
stuffs largely from Chile. When the
California market was closed against
Chile, that Republic commenced export
ing wheat and -four to Australia, the
Cape of Good Hope and Europe, and
this trade continues. There is still,
however an important American trade
at Valparaiso, which will largely increase
when the inter-oceanic canal becomes an
accomplished fact Chile is perhaps the
most orderly and best civilized of all the
South American Republics. She led the
van in the introduction of railroads.
Chile has completed Il trans-Andine tel
graph from Buenos Ayres and Monte
yideo to Valparaiso, and the Republic is
now engaged on n project for trans
continental railroad to unite Santiago
with Benos Ayres. 1t may be expected
that the Pacific States and Territories
will be we'll represented at the forthcom
ing Valparaiso Exposition.

WALwoRTH's BETRoTHED.-A very sad
feature of the Walworth case-still fresh
in the minds OF the public-has come to
1t appears that few years ago Frank
Walworth formed n very strong attach
lnent for the youngest daughter Of dis
tinguished Southern family who were at
that time visiting Saratoga. The young
lady reciprocated, but her parents, in
view of her age, discouraged the intimacy
which had arisen between her and young
Walworth. Subsequently the family
went abroad and the young girl was
placed at one of the finest and most cele-
brated educational institutions in Eu-
rope. A clandestine correspondence was
arranged and carried on between the
young lovers, and about eight months
ago they became engaged through the
medium of letters. Time rolled on, and
suddenly the community was horritied at
the news Walworth had shot and killed
his father. About the same time the
young lady to whom Frank was engaged
no longer girl, but a beautiful and
hnely educated young woman-arrived
With her family in the Cunard steamer.
When she heard the news she tainted,
and for several hours was unconscious.
She has never recovered since, and is to-
aay sad, listless, heart t-broken woman.
We believe she has not seen the young
parricide since the tragedy, but they have
communicated with one another in vari'
ous ways. The flowers received by
Young Walworth the day he left the
Tombs for Sing Sing was sent by his
lady love, who, it is said, keeps his eel
on the Hudson continually supplied
with fresh exotics. In conclusion, w
NAV add that both remain steadfast il
their love for one another, and may ye
become man and wife.

A WOMAN WHO WANTED To DE LAW

during the session of the Chancery Court
Miss N. q. Stewart applied for license

her qualification by Coils. Martin, Aiken,
ex-Chancellor Foster, Captain Cunning

that she was incompetent. Then came
the tug of war. She got wrathy and said
that it was nothing more than she ex.
pected; accused the Court and Bar Of
robbing her, aud called them band OF
robbers. The Chancellor ordered the
Sheriff to put her out of the Courtroom,
Tor contempt of Court, and she replied
that she had the right to speak. The
Sheriff started to take her out, but she
declined to be escorted. The Chancellor
then allowed her to remain. if she woulc
keep quiet; otherwise, he would have he'
put in Jail. She subsidized.
