A LEGEND OF "RONEST MINERS,

Washington Correspondence of the St. Louis
Republican.
There is a clever story going the
rounds about the aristocratic proclivi-
ties of one of our Senator's. It seems
that some time ago this ancient and
honorable honse discovered that one of
its principal powders in its foundation
walls-probably the cornerstone, so to
speak-was Plymouth Rock. As a
matter of course this discovery render
ed 1t Necessary to have heirlooms in
the house. Now it is not difficult to
have heirlooms. There are several es-
Establishments IN New York and one in
Washington that deal largely In heir
looms, the business having become i'm
mensely profitable in this period of the
renaissance. So among the heirlooms
of the Senatorial house of Stewart is
continental uniform''-big bell-but-
tons, white facings, epaulets, knee
buckles and all OF course one even

the family were under discussion, the

had neglected to re move the price-tag
of the dealer IN heirlooms. OF course
there was confusion, and people will
talk.

FRANCE,s NEW CRISIS.

The question of the formation of an
Upper House, or a Chamber approx
mating to the House of Lords in En-
gland, bids fair to lead to crisis with
the Cabinet of the Due de Broglie.
The Extreme Right, or the followers of
the Count de Chambord, oppose the
measure, as they oppose anything that
looks like the formation of any govern
ment but the monarchy. The Extreme
Left, or the followers of M. Gambetta.
do not regard two houses as republican
IN spirit, and consequently viii make
an issue with the government. There
suit will be that the Cabinet viii have
to depend upon the support of what are
called the Centres, or the moderate
men of both parties. If the Bona
partists, who are not very numerous in
the Assembly, but very effective, and
under the command of NJ. Rouher, the
most skillful parliamentarian in the
Assembly, should conclude to oppose
the bill, they may succeed in defeating
the Cabinet and compel Marshal Mac
Mahon to appoint new Ministry.
France is in such a peculiar situation
now that any crisis in the Assembly
may lead to a revolution and the down
fall of the Septennate. Unfortunately,
all parties IN France, except the Mac
Mahon supporters, crave a revolution.

HIGH PRICES IN EAST TENNESSEE,

There is large demand for corn.
Our merchants and produce dealers are
in receipt of orders daily from the
South. The priceis steadily and surely
advancing. We think it will bring one
dollar in less than week at the wharf.
Eatables of all kinds are looking up,
and those who have to buy may expect
to pay long prices tbs summer But
ter, here, is retailing at twenty-five
cents a pound, without regard to
quality; mean butter sells for Just the
same price that good brings. When
lard is ten and eleven cents, and butter
is twenty-five, it is very hard to keep
from mixing.-L0udon, Journal

: TENNESSEE CROP NOTES.

A gentleman who visited numerous eoun-
ties in East Tennessee, recently, reports
the peaches in perfect condition and an
enormous crop is predicted. The rains
have spoiled the apples, and our informant
says that there will not be more than half a
crop or probably still less, of apples
hROzriIle Press and Herald ~ F
The farmers in this country have been so
retarded in their agricultural operations
during the spring that they are just now
able to say they have planted corn. The
weather now is SO favorable for cultivation
and the growth OF vegetation that we veri-
ly believe the time lost may be made up by
the exercise of energy ana industry

where all the money goes which is paid

each, and $4,000, 900, it is estimated,
have been paid in initiation fees and

The number of army officers engaged in
lobby business is unusually large this year.
The miserable feature of their swarming
is that they are mostly engaged in work
ing through piety, selfish schemes. They
have not the manhood TO be even engaged
in big projects. Said Logan, who is Chair
man of the Senate Military Committee. to
Belknap the other day: IF you do not call
off some of these officers who are whining
around me, will introduce a bill that will
scare people" LOgan's bill would call for
