What the Matter Was.

Forty years ago rumors in Washing ton city imputing misconduct to mem- bers of Congress were seldom in circu- lation. The writer, then residing in that city, heard only one report preju- dicial to the character of either Sena- tor or member of the House of Repre- sentatives. And as its deaouenaent n- lustrates the sagacity of Senator Grun- dy. of Tennessee, it is communicated.
 The writer was seated in that Sena- tors room when 8 gentleman entered and said:
 "A report is in circulation highly in- furious to the character of Senator of the United States"
 "Stepp said MT. Grundy; before it is stated will make prediction. If 8 Western Senator is implicated, the government has been cheated out of public land if the Senator involved is from the South, 8 negro has been wronged; but if there is some trick concerning patent right, the Senator is from New England"
 The facts of the case being stated, it appeared that a Senator from 8 New England State had charged one of his constituents ten dollars for obtaining @ patentfor an improvement in door locks. This deviation from propriety forty years ago caused more denunciatjon than that awakened at this day by a well-known disreputable practice of Senators and members of Congress who receive fees for the exercise of their influence to procure appoint ments, or to cover up official delin- OuonOY

The AngOra Goat.

A good deal of attention, says Sydney paper, is being given in Aus tralia to the cultivation of the Angora goat. The hair is said to make 8 very good "mohair" fabric, but it's quality depends very much upon the nNture of the locality in which the animals are reared. Undulating prairies, with Q good supply of pure water, are best adapted to the habits of this goat. In sandy, hilly districts it thrives admir- ably, but the hair is inferior and falls off very quickly. The flesh is excel lent, and is preferred in some parts of Australia to the best mutton. The milk is of good quality, and yields a good supply of butter and cheese. The hair is worth about four shillings pound, and one ram will yield about four pounds at each shearing. The best plan is to shear them twice 6 year, as this prevents the hair from falling of and from splitting at each shearing 1t is about six inches long. Compared with the merino sheep, the Angora goat seems to have the advantage in the fact that the former produces only three and half pounds of wool, worth two shillings and sixpence per pound, and that six merinoes will eat as much as seven Angoras. These facts are impor. tant in view of the acclimatization of the Angora goat in this coun ".

A Great Printing Press Factory.

The well-known firm of Hoe & Co.,, says New York correspondent, is now fairly settled again in its work of manufacturing presses, after putting up it's new building at the corner of Grand and Sheriff streets. The ma chine shops are busy with skilled workmen, and novice is bewildered at the confusion out of which finished presses of all sizes and forms are finally turned out. On each floor of the rear building is to be found printing ma ch1nery in all stages of completion, the amount of iron spread around amount ing to hundreds of tons. On the ground floor there is in process of con- struction 8 massive Webb Perfecting Press, capable of turning out about 16, GOO complete newspapers an hour, an order for number of which has re- cently been filled by the company for use in England.
 A highly interesting and compara- lively novel feature of this firms busi- ness is the apprenticeship system it has established. Having found, by experience, that none but the very best workmen should be employed in the machine shops, Col. Hoe determined some 0lRuL06u uOubAS bihoo SO oboAs training system whose effects would be felt in the future. With this view about 100 of the workmen engaged are young men or boys who are taken as apprentices, though not bound by any agreement, and who are put through the various branches of the work, to become familiarized eventually with the whole. To make them every way intelligent and competent, a school is taught in the building every day by a practical teacher, at which the appren- tices attend twice a week in turns to recite, after studying in what spare time they can find. They are taught chiefly in mathematics and physics, and some of them are already liber- ally educated in both these depart ments. An evening drawing school is also open two evenings week, at which all tsl6 worxmsn oan attend. by train- ing the younger men in this way 1t is expected that they will prove in the long run far more effective than they could otherwise be. The experiment at least has proved satisfactory thus far, and it is believed not attempted as a system, by any other firm in the.coun- try. ,,.
 From t.e top of Hoes new building some of the finest viewB of New York, Brooklyn, tho harbor ard rivers can be h d. The tower, when completed, will contain | conspicuous clock.

A Song of a. Nest.

There was once nest in the hollow Down in the mosses and knot-grasa
 pressed, Soft and warm, and full to the brim With young birds by the breezes caressed. Vetches leaned over it, purple and dim, With butter-cup buds to follow. pray you hear my songiof.a a nest, For it is not long; You shall never light in 8 sunnier quest The bushes among Shall never light on 8 prouder sitter, fairer nestful, nor ever know A fairer sound than their tender twitter, That winklike did come and go. had a nestful once of my own, An happy happy I; Right dearly loved them; but when they
 were grown,
 They spread their wings to fly; Oh, one after one, they flew away, Far up the heavenly blue, To the better country, the upper day, And-I wish was going too. pray you, what is the nest to me, My empty nest2 And what is the shore where I stood to see My boat sail down to the west? Can call that home where I anchor yet, Though my good man has sailed2 Can cali that home where my nest was set, Now all hopes have failed?
 .- Nay, but the port where my sailor went, And the land where my nestlings be, There is the home where my thoughts are
 sent,
 The only home for me.

Death A Friend to Her.

An exchange tells tho story of little girl who died in it's town from hunger and exposure, as follows Soon after the little girl was first taken sick, and.while lay she in critical condition, the best care, nursing, and food being absolutely necessary to bring her back to life and health, the father returned home from his nights debauchery fero.- ciously drunk, and, after storming and swearing in manner not well calcuia- ted to soothe the delicate nerves of the s,ck chi.d, procoeGot;, wi.l rn..iiy d drunken oath and blasphemy, to smash the furpitrre. He soon found himself opposite the stove, and throwing it vio- lently over, broke it so as to render it useless. After this little rebullition of feeling he subsided. Tho child natu- rally grew worse, lying in cold room with no warm food but that which the kind neighbors cooked and sent in, and finally died.

 Luther Mccoy, an eccentric old man of Troy, and for many years accounted rich, has been a source of great anxiety to his relatives by his habit of making and destroying wills. First one kins- man and then another was made his heir, and alternately hope and fear were intensified by his valuation of his property at over $200, 1000. The truth has come out, however, that he hasn't much to leave to anybody, and the ex- posture of his cruel pastime has made some laugh and others weep.
