About the Grnuxerx.

1t has been asserted that the grange move
ment is in its decadence, and that the inter-
est which was formerly so generally felt in
the order Is rapidly dying out. The facts
scarcely justify the assertion. The monthly
bulletin OF the national grange, dated the LIST
instant, shows the total number OF subOrdi-
nate oranges in operation as 2, ISL, the az
gregate membership of which might be esti-
mated all the way from go COO to 1000, 900.
The number of subordinate oranges organ
lied in 1874 was II, 9i1, or about 1000 more
than were oganized during the six years ex-
tstence Of the order prior to the year named.
The amount received during the year 1874 by
the national grange from subordinate oranges
In the shape of charter fees, &C., was $40 ,O05,
against s161 ,6l543 received prior TO that year
During the existence OF the order 90 oranges
have consolidated, 81 have become defunct,
and III have had their charters revoked.
The cost of materials sent out to subor-
dinate oranges by the national grange in
1874 was SIo,i51.9O. This data, which is OBJ
tanned from trustworthy source, is pref
ty conclusive evidence that the grangers
are neither dead nor sleeping, and that
the accessions TO this order last year were
larger than those of all previous years
combined The time, of course, must come
when there will be a falling Off i'm the num-
Der OF new oranges organized, since in many
OF the states such organizations exist in
every county and there is no room for more.
Iowa, which for years led all the other states
In the number of oranges, now stands No. 3
on the list, with 2,OO3; Missouri with 2,Ol6,
and Indiana with 2,OO7, preceding her. ILL.,
nois follows, with 1, SO, and next comes Ken
lucky, with 81, and Ohio with LILO. The
order still seems to flourish most in the
Southern and Western states. The great
state Of New York has but go oranges, and
Pennsylvania only 4S2, New Jersey SC, Con-
necticut and Massachusetts but sg.

TWO BROKEN HEARTS.
BeWitehed by a Beautiful Actress-A
Loving WIfe's Terrible Death.
Paris Figaro.

In 1870 young Frenchman, the Count
George de Meyrac, married beautiful girl
of his own station in life, Mathilde -,
who was very much in love with him. All
went well, and the two were very happy in
their devotion to each other. They were
fond Of the theatre, and every one just at
that time was enraptured with a new &C
tress, Rosita, who took the principal roles
in the dubious dramas Of the Dumas school.
The newly weeded pair often went to Ro-
sita's theatre, until the Countess thought
her husbands eyes fingered too fondly on
the actress, and began to feel pangs of
jealousy. FrOu-FrOu was one Of ROsita's
best representations, and ON her fare
well night she appeared by request
in that character. The Jockey Club, of
which George de MeyraC was Vice Presi-
dent, gave her supper after the play.
George, Of course, was present, and sat by
the side Of the fascinating ROsita, who was
surrounded with bouquets. Wine flowed
freely, and mirth and wit enliVened the
banquet until o'clock in the morning.
Meanwhile, the poor wife, Mathilde, wait
ed at the little gate Of their park for her
truant husband. The hours passed slowly
on, and he came not, a cold, penetrating
rain began to fall at midnight, and Ma
thilde trembled from exhaustion and eX-
pOsure. At five in the morning, when her
husband came through the little gate, be
stumbled over her inanimate body lying on
the rain-sOaked ground. She was not dead;
she lived for FIVE days after, but never re-
covered her mind. In her delirium, ste
necessarily murmured, ''Frou-FrOu! FrOu-
FrOu - Those were her last words.
The Count was almost crazed by his
wife's loss. he entered the army, and
sought death in the bloody battles Of the
FrancO-PUssian war. Fate was cruel, and
he returned unframed. His Wife's room,
adjoining his own, had always been kept
closed since her death, but owing to the
suffOcating heat one summers night,
George opened the door between the two
rooms. He then fell asleep. In about
an hour he awOke; the clock struck mid
night. As the last stroke sounded, he
heard distinctly from the other room the
Wol DIS stFrou-Frou." He listened with in
expressible anguish. "Frou-FrOu" seemed
to be murmured from all parts Of the room.
He leaped from his bed, lighted a candle,
and crossed the threshold Of Mathilde's
chamber. At that instant a current Of air
extinguished the candle, and George felt
upon his forehead, his lips, his cheeks,
something indefnable-a breath, a caress,
the contact of a cold wing, or, perhaps, the
muslin of peignoir. He fell unconscious.
The next morning he was found lying there
insane. To every interrogation he only re-
Piled sFrou-FrOu." The country people in
the neighborhOod Of the Chateau de Meyrac
think that it was the soul of the Countess
returning at midnight to murmur in the
ear Of her cruel husband: "GeOrge,
still love thee; but it is thou. who hast
killed mer'

Candidates for the PenI1entIsry,

1t has recently come 10 our notice that IN
principled persons in various sections Of the
country (tsus causing belief that there IS head
centre IN this busiaeSs) have been mutilating our
Almanac in such a manner as to call for the
lOudest condemnation, by all good citizens, on
all who have in any degree been guilty Of this
crime: and whilst some are satisfied with simply
passing them through the mail, it is lamentable
to fear that (smong Others) parties with large
pretsnsiOns to gentility are INDUCING in ths
mean, low, vulgar practice Of displaying these
mutilated engravings bordering on the lowest
degree Of Obscenity) in the common walks of
life. We now, therefore, give this word Of warn
ing to whom it may concern, that we viii prose-
cute all persons, whether friend or foe, who
from this date viii display, in any manner trhat-
Scorer, iDhstker IA joke or OtAsTlglss, these OBJ
jectiOnable mutilated engravingsi and as con-
viction in such cases will land the offender in
the States prison for term of years, We feel to
give this earnest, friendly word Of caution.
We may-add in conclusion, for the benefit of
those who have been using the Q. S. mail as 8
medium for circulating said documents, that
steps have been taken to ferret out those thus
offending; conviction in such cases by the Gen
| eraI Government subjecting the criminal to q
| penalty Of from two to five years in the peniter

UNION AND AMERICAN.
a SIX DAYS WALK.
~ York I'D, Mareh ;

The HippodrOme was visited by over a
thousand persons, yesterday, to witness the
walk between Weston and Judd for the
purse Of 5000 offered by the managers.
Both men have kept pretty steadily to work
during the past twenty-fsUr hours, but
Judd has been taking his work easier than
Weston, who has not really rested half an
hour. After walking - miles, Weston
took 9 rest Of about i've minutes, and on
the conclusion Of his 50tb mile he again
stopped for ON. sos. His next halt was on
the conclusion Of his 10th mile, when he
rested for 13m. As. He completed his first
100 miles in 2lh. 14m. 52s. Judd
was evidently taking into consideration
the 50 miles start that he was given, as he
took his time, and rested for 6 minutes
after finishing his 26th mile. He halted
for Pom. sos. for breakfast at the end of
the SD, and for ION. at the finish
Of the 4Tth. His next rest Of 33m.
39s. was at the end Of the 18th, and be
took Am. rs. at the finish Of the 61st. At
Oh. 35m.55s. P. NJ, after completing bis 85th
mile, Judd went to bed.
Weston is still walking, having COM
pleted 107 miles al the close Of the first
twenty-four hours. He is walking with
great pluck, and though apparently a little
stiff, is full Of grit and confidence. Judd
will not start walking again before about
two A. N, when he intends TO make a
hundred miles without any rest, except
what be makes for meals. Weston stopped
Vt L p. NJ. and went to bed. When the
mSu are walking, the HippOdrOme brass
band cheers them with some lively airs,
and the spectators are liberal with ap-
plause. TIE betting is about four to one
on Weston.

FINANCIAL.

There is nothing new to report in money
matters. There is about the usual demand
for money both from the banks and on the
streets. The banks discount for their
customers on shOr5 time at the rate of ten
per cent. per annum. Brokers loan on
collaterals at one per cent. per month,
while notes are discounted on the streets
at about two per cent. per month.
Exchange on New York is taken by the
banks at z discount and is sold by them at
s. per thousand premium.
Gold is firm, closing in New York at lis
after touching 114t. Our dealers pay 1133
and sell at 115. Silver is taken at los for
halves and quarters.
Tennessee bonds are quoted in New
York at 66667 ana at 47d49. There are
no transactions in this market, though
there seems to be 4 growing disposition to
buy at the present quotations.
