the latter leaves the mailing Office, and that the
letter becomes the exclusive property of the
person to whom it is addressed when it arrives
at the Office of delivery, and. therefore, de-
cliues to comply with the request made upon

CLARKE COUNTY ITEMS Previous to the
late rains pasture lands were in crlsp-like con-
dltion, but now they look as fresh and green as
they usually do the first mouth of spring. The

fine yield where it was not materially Injured
by the drought; while remarkable change for
the better has taken place in our gardens.

FoLEY's STATUE OF JACKSON Rev. J. S.

err Churcbman, July the 10th, describing a
visit to the Royal Art Gallery, says:
But there was one single work in this Splen
did salon to which We turned our feet frst-tne
bronze statue of Stonewall jackson. Five Vir-
ginisns met together where it stands, and gath
ering around the majestic figure, there, IN a for
elgn land, amid strangers, uncovered their heads
in mute homage to the mighty dead.
The idea Of erecting suitable memorial to
the great Confederate leader WAS conceived BY
several English gentlemen soon alter the news
OF his death reached this country; but this statue
by the distinguished sculptor, Mr.. Foley, was
not finished until 1873. The great artist has,
like the hero whose face and form he has lett ia
bronze to be looked upon By poSterity, Crossed
over The river and rests under the shade OF the
trees. The figure is OF heroic size, erect and
noblei head uncovered, right hsnd grasping y
gauntlet, rests naturally upon the hip; on the
left arm hangs military CLOAK, while the left
hand holds the hilt of sword whose point
touches q pile Of hewn stones, its empty cabbsrd
hanging from belt around the waist The
form, the attitude the face aud the expression
OF tho ccuntenance combine to make one of the
most Impressive statues we have ever seen"

A City WITHOUT WOMEN. An Havana
correspondent writes:
Looked at from social point of view, what
immediately strikes stranger is that Havana
like the Rome of Remulus, is d city without
women. Hardly any other women than negresses
are to be seen about. Ladies with any preten.
sons to youth and beauty would sooner die than
venture out without protection, even for their
early mass; and so uncommon is the sight of
decent women unattended in the streets that
foreign ladies, unacquainted with the CUSTOM
and saunterlng from store to store, become the
objects of a curiosity not unfrequently degener-
atlng into impe'tinence.
1 he charms OF cafe and club life-such as they
Rre-wesn the Havana husband from a home
where real feminine accomplishments are rs I'M
known as hearth rugs and tire irons. House
keeping in the town, and still more in the SUBJ
urbs, is terribly uphill work. Foreign consuls
and other age nts usually try it on their first ar.
rival, but soon lesnn to look upon the hotel,
with Its smells and noises, as q haven from do
nestle storms. Hence mans lite in Havana is
wholly out Of doors, while for women there is
no lite within them. In no town in France or
Italy havo we ever seen so many, or, proper.
uonately, such sumptuous or constantly crowd
ed cafes ard restaurants. The Havana merchant
Is rs eager to make money us he is to squander
1t. Bat the town supplies little besides gross
material enjoyment for his money
A box a. his third-rate opera drive in his
dresry prado, are all the smusements he can
have in common with his. wife and daughter
For the rest the women are lett to nope alone
at home, playing bo-peep with the passers. by
from their window gratings, or pacing the ast
roots of their houses like SO many Sister AIMS"
waiting Tor those who are never coming With
so little wholesome domestic society it is pleas
ing to hear the characters universally given for
good conduct to the Havana women. Few of
them-even Of the lowest classes-frequent the
cockpit and the bull ring and the prohigacy-
the symptoms of which are every where only TOO
conspicuous-is of Spanish or Americsn-ato-
gether of foreign Importation

Tue AMERICAN TrAM.-The American
rifle team won a decisive victory over the
representatives Of Ireland The teams had
their first match at Creedmoor, on Long Is
land, last year, when the Americans, accept
ing challenge from the Irish team beat
them by three points. At the return match
in Ireland, they beat the competitors Of the
previous year by thirty-eight points. The
Irish, when they challenged the Americans,
were the champions OF Great Britain, so that
these two victories give the American
marksmen place among the foremost sharp
shooters of the world But they are yet TO
meet with other skilful competitors, and it
is hardly probable that they will be the vic
tors at every trial of skill. They have done
enough TO bring credit upon themselves q.
formidable competitors, but this success.
will only make their future competitors Tho
moro anxious TO defeat them.

Our FINANcEs.-The fiscal year closed
Thursday, july /, and in spite Of the
depressing effects Of the panic and the con-
sequent falling of in revenues, the national
finances are in very sound and healthy
condition. The receipts Of the treasury
have been s2S0,OOO,OOO, while the expeudi-
lures have not exceeded S215,O00000, leay-
ing a balance Of receipts over expenditures
of fourteen million dollars This is highly
gratifying exhibit when it is remembered
that last year the surplus was only s2,3ii,00o.
A gain Of eleven and one-half millions, or
about one million dollars month, speaks
well for the administration Of our national
finances. But, besides this handsome in.
crease over last year. to-day, after all dis
bursements and obligations have been pro-
yided for, there is in the treasury balance
of fifty-fye million dollars
