SALE OF sHORT-HORN CATTLE

The sale on the 18th inst. of the celebra-
ted Long Point herd of short-born cattle by
Mr.. Edward lies, at his residence near
Springfield, Illinois, was attended by prom
inent cattle breeders from almost eve,
State in the Union famous for cattle raising,
and also partook Of an international charac-
ter by securing the presence Of the leading
cattle raiser Of the Dominion of Canada,
the. Hon. David Christie, 81. 2. P. The
sale Of the short-horDs commenced by
bringing the attention of the audience TO
the famous bull "Cherub," being an impor-
ted animal, and conceded to be the best in
the United States. From the first the bid
ding was lively, representatives. from Ken
lucky and Indians averring that they had
come al the way for that very animal; 81
900 had been Did up to that time, when for
the honor of Their own State, few Illinois
mel commenced, and were equally spirited
in their bidding. BY this time the amount
bio was far in excess Of that paid for
"Cherub'5" greatest rival, and the excite
ment was intense. Five thousand dollars
was then reached, the bidders being ess in
number; $3.50, cried the auctioneer. Six
thousand dollars, shouted Mr.. j. II. Spears,
OF Tailula, and the animal was awarded
him and the State of illinois amid the plau-
dts of the crowd. This is admitted to be
the largest SUN which any animal of the
kind ever brought under the hammer, and
was equaled by but single private sale.
The average price received per head was
$1,000.

The Growing Crops.

The late intelligence concerning the crops
is encouraging Our exchan es, on the
whole, are jubilant. In Wisconsin we note
that ''since the last rain crops looks WELL"
In Michigan 'the wheat is nearly all blsd-
ed out, and with favorable weather the 10th
of July will commence the harvesting of as
good a crop of wheat as has ever been pro-
duced in Michigan" In Ohio and Western
Virginia "the weather has been very pro-
pitious for the growing crops, and every
thing looks favorable to full average yield
of the cereals" In North Carolina the
only trouble appears to be the scarcity OF
labor, "the consequence of which 8 thai
both negio and plA ter ara demoralized''-
the cotton On the brain is developing seri-
ouslY in this State too. In Georgia and
Alabama the crops have been somewhat
damaged by tho continued r.ins of the
past fortnight, but, IS a rule, the crops are
loOkiCg we'll. In South Carolina the pres
ent condition of the cotton crop is unsatis-
factory. In Louisiana, unless clear weather
comes, the cotton and grass crops mus be
ruined. In the West the genial nature OF
the soil ard the beautiful weather of late
have about prepared the wheat crop for the
harvest, and indeed in some places the har-
vest has already beguO, reaping having
commence ed in Randolph county, Illinois,
and will soon begin in Msdison and st.
Clair counties, Illinois, and in st. Genevieve
county ID Missouri, where the yield to the
acre is expected to equal So bushels. Re-
ports from Texas complain Of excessive
rains, but in Collin and Dallas CT unties
harvesting has commenced. The Galveston
NelCS says everywhere the spring has been
late, and the cold weather has made crops
nearly a month more backward than usual;
and everywhere we hear of excessive rains
during the past few weeks, rendering it
difficult to harvest wheat, and causing the
grass in the fields to grow beyond the
means of most farmers to keep it down, so
that corn and cotton are suffering greatly
from that cause. The money article of the
same Journal says the crop accounts from
the interior grow wose with every hour,
and in all branches of business unusual
caution is being manifested in the extension
of credits. From all the New England
States, reports come of the excellent pros
pect for very bountiful crop of hay this
season. The bangor Democrat says that
never before has there been better pros
pect, and that every indication is given that
! there will be the largest crop of hay cut and
cured that has ever been harves ed IN the
State of Maine. The Rhode Island, New
Jersey, and the papers of the north and
northwestern portions of our own State,
also report satisfactorily on the coming har-
vest. On Long Island the crops are suffer
ing from drought.-Ne,o York Express,

A wOmAN,s DREAM.

Wilt thou begin thy life again r-sa -re
o woman OF the whitening hair2
Become child, with shining train
: or angel-chndren in the air?
Wilt feel thy mothers kisses press
Those Graded warmly at her feet?"
WHAT find my vanished Eden2 Yes,
All, yes, my God 1t was 50 sweetln
s'Wiit thou in blissful faith resume
Thy sire's fond shelter rs Of old,
While, breathing innocent perfume,
The white flowers of thy head unfold?
Back to thy vernal happiness, li
Fly like bird on pinicns feet?" i .F-
"Might but that joy continue, yes,
All, yes, my Cod 1t was SO sweet"
.'tWilt thou unlearn thy sorry lore,
And shyly keep lifes leaves between,
And, feeding youngest hopes once mo e, a
Forget the winters thou hast seen? k
The dashed bank, the dove Of peace,
The morning freshness round thy track;
Shall these return?" "My GOdi ali, yes
+ All but the wayside graves give back"
"Have, then, thy wishl Thy steps retTacele
Flowers, perfume, song, be thine once morel
Yet shall time lead thee to the place a
OF tears as surely as before.
Rekindle PASSIONS fires, and view
Their ever baleful radiance!"
"What light those earth born flames anew?
Ali, no, my Saviori Take me hence!"

PERR0NAIITIFS

Miss Elizabeth Stuart Phelps refers, in
print, to Miss Smiley, the Quaker preacher,
as 80 woman who has voice az sweet as
q robins, a face as serene as a MsdCnna's,
a courage as resolute as an apostle's, and d
purpose as fixed as Quaker's, and who
wears her bonnet into the pulpit beside"
In Burlington, Iowa, there is lady six
feet seven and a half inches in stature, and
still growing, and she is said to possess two
of the towering virtues, beauty and wealth.
We shall not consider her case, however,
until it Is definitely known how much longer
this is to go on.
Mr.. Bragg, of Visalia, Cal, carried a re-
volvsr when he took Miss Kemp to ride the
other day, and as they were both on the
same hor'e when the weapon went of, the
bullet entered the young lsdy's knee and
came out at the ankle. Her dress was set
on fire, and she was seriously injured by
falling from the horse; but such incidents
are trivial in comparison with the sense OF
security which an able-bodied man derives
from tie possession of pistol.
1t now appears that ex Secretary Bout
well offered DR.. Mary Walker place in the
Treasury Department if she would ALLURE
her pantaloons, and that the energetic dam
sci, while eagerly desiring place, refused
it at such sacrifice of principle. She was
right. PantSloons have ever been sign OF
intellectual advancement and of power.

HOMEMADE.

Several months ago the officers of the
East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor-
gia Railroad Company, deemed it
advisable to have sixty new box
cars built fer their road which, when
completed, would enable them to forward
all freigbts received from connecting lines,
without delay, including also ali local
freights. Accordingly, MIR. G. A. Hodge,
MASTER mechanic of the machine shops, and
Jos. Ambuster, master mechanic cf the car
penter shops, were instructed TO have sixty
new box cars built of the best material, and
completed by the first day of July next.
We visited the shops, yesterday, in comps-
ny with Capt. jacques, and found that the
entire order was completed, with the excep-
ton of five cars, and they will be finished
before the time expires. All the material
has been carefully selected and the work
faithfully done. The material was all pur-
chased in Knoxville, except the tin used for
roofing. 1t would cost about $4,000 to
have purchased the same number of cars
from any Eastern mandatory. We also
noticed fine passenger coach Just complet-
ed, which is as handsome in every respect
as any on the road and certainly as durable.
Several others of the same pattern have
been commenced.
1t is the intention of the officers of this
road to manufacture everything in their
own shops, which can be done without sac
rihciDg the interests Of the company.
During the past few yrars there has been
some complaint made that too high rates
have been charged by this road. This may
be so, to some extent, owing to the financial
condition OF the road It the close of the
war, but on the other had, have not the
merchants and all classes of business men,
including the mechanics and laborers of
Knoxville, been fully remunerated for any
excessive rates which may have been
charged, by the thousands of dollars which
are expended by the company every month
for material and labor. Some idea can be
formed as to where large portion of the
expenses of the road 90, by attending at the
psymaster's Office on the 18th of each
month, when from fifteen to thirty clerks
can be seen receiving their dues from the
workmen as they are paid of, and these
clerks represent almost every branch of
business carried on in the Objectionable

ENGLaND's RICHEST MAN.

When people talk about millionaires they
actually mention ROthschild first, but there
is man in England by the name of Ward,
in comparison with whom any Rothschild
is pauper. This man Ward inherits
vast property, with accumulated invest
ments and estates, which give him an enor-
nous income; he has the most magnificent
house in London, the finest collection of art,
and the finest country seats in the King
dom; his wife is celebrated for her beauty,
and her display of diamonds at the recent
festival given by the Emp ror of Austria, in
Vienna, made all the other ladies', the En-
presses, Queens and Princesses, look poor.
What the income ofthis British Cfossus is
we have never seen any statement of, but a
MAI chester paper gives an account of his
annua! Profits derived from his coal mines,
which amount to the enormous sum of
a. 100000. So the income from one source
alone of this Unfortunately weakly person is
not much short of twenty five millions of
dollars year.

GETTING WEIGHED.

Daintily drawing anear the rough platform
Comes the sweet maiden of scarcely nineteen;
Graceful and light are the movements of that
form,
Over which lovers adoringly lean.
Laughing, she waits while tho scales are adjust
ing,
Gaily coquetting with glances that slay-
Woe 20 the heart that so fOndlY is trustingi
Anxious TO know how much she will weigh.
Now she weighs more in the scales of loves
making
Than all the bright jewels earth can bestow;
How will she weigh when from loves dream
awakiDg, r.
Her lover finds her as cold as the snow?
False TO the VOWS she so faithfully plighted;
False TO the heart that lies torn at her feet
How much viii she weigh when all things are
righted,
When at the LAST reckoning they two shall
meet?
