Executive Order on the Death of the
Ex-President.

The following executive order has
Eeen issued:
WASHINGTON, July 81, 1S75.-It be-
comes the painful duty of the President
to announce to the people of the United
States the death of Andrew Johnson,
the last survivor of his honored pre-
decessors, which occurred in Carter
county, East Tennessee, at an early
hour this morning. The solemnity of
the occasion which called him to the
presidency, with the varied nature and
length of his public services, will cause
him to be long remembered, and occa-
sion mourning for the death of a dis
tinguished public servant. AS mark
of respect for the memory of the de-
ceased, it is ordered that the executive
mansion and the several departments of
the government at Washington be
draped in mourning until the close of
the day designated for his funeral, and
that all public business be suspended
on that day. 1t is further ordered that
the war and navy departments cause
suitable honors to be paid on the oc-
casion to the memory of the illustrious
dead. U. 3. GRANT.
By order Of the President.

WHEN THE SONGS GONE OUT OF YOUR
LIFE

When the songs gone ont of your life, you cant
start another while IT'S a-ringing in your ears, but
It's best to have bit of silence and out o. that may
be psalm1l come Edt0drd Garrett.
When the songs gone out Of your life,
That you thought would last to the end, .
That first sweet song of the hearty
That no after days can Lend
The song of the bird to the trees,
The song of the wind to the flowers,
The song that the heart sings lowto itself
When it wakes in lifes morning hours:
you can start no other song,"
Not even a tremulous note
viii falter forth on the empty air,
1t dies in your aching throat.
1t is all in vain that you try,
For the spirit of song has fed
The nightingale sings more to the rose
When the beautiful flower is dead.
So let silence softly fall
On the bruised hearts quiyering strings;
Perhaps from the loss of all you may learn
The song that the seraph sings;
A grand and glorious psalm
That will tremble and rise, and thrill,
And fill your breast with its grateful rest
And its lonely yearnings still.

You cannot reach plump arms to get my kiss,
Or dart about with rosy, naked feet.

Empty the home, where, froiicsome and fair,
Your precious presence made bright a part
Empty yonr little crib, your clothes, your chair

AT last the cotton states are learning
wisdom. The experiment of diversified
cropping, which the more prudent have
for years been urging, has this season
been tried with most encouraging re-
suits. 1t is fact that the gulf states
have grown a surplus of cereals, if the
estimates of the papers of those states
can be trusted. Not only is there an
unprecedented wheat crop, but cotton
culture has been prosecuted with new
diligence and method, resulting in an
unusual yield to the acre. Thus instead
of mortgaging the growing cotton crop
for food to eat, the planter can this year
supply his table mainly from his own
acres, while he stores mis- prime staple
and aw Ms the top of the market. This
is the beginning of independence for
the south-frst diversified agriculture,
then manufactures.

A Few Hints for Railroad Travellers

Extra charges for failures to buy
tickets are universally sustained by the
courts, but there must be full oppor-
tunity to buy afforded by the ticket
seller. Passengers must show tickets
when asked for. AS to " stopping off, |"
there is only one decision, that of New
Jersey, which is that a passenger can
not "stop off" and resume his jour-
ney, without the previous assent of the
company. AS to the words "good for
this trip or this day only" the decisions
clash. Maine, which is the only state
regulating the matter by law, makes,
by statute, all tickets good for six years.
The Massachusetts decision is that the
ticket has no validity after the expira-
ton of the time specified. AS to the
obligation of the road to furnish seat
to the passenger, a Missouri decision
says: A passenger who exhibits his
ticket need not surrender it until he has
been furnished with seat" A railroad
is not liable for things stolen out of
passengers seat, there being no previous
delivery to the company's servants
for the same reason the company is not
liable for baggage in the passengers
own care. Passengers who neglect to
look after baggage on arrival at their
destination, cannot recover if it is lost
without fault of the carrier. Baggage
left in station-houses for the passen-
gers convenience, after it has reached
its destination comes under new class
of rights and duties, the baggage-mas-
ter assuming the position of ''gratui-
tous bailee," who only becomes liable in
cases of gross negligence, The obi
cations of the railroad as carrier ceases
when it has delivered the baggage to its
owner at the-flace OF destination, or
when he has had reasonable opportunity
of receiving and removing it. Many
states hold that the price of the ticket
covers the transportion of reasonable
amount of baggage. 1t will interest
sportsman to know that they may re-
cover for the value of dogs when they
entrust them to baggage-masters for
hire, because of their exclusion from the
passenger cars Chicago Inter Ocean.
DELICATE RELATIONS BETWEEN CHINA
AND JAPAN.-The relations of both
China and Japan to Russia are delicate.
China is developing her military power
steadily, and at the same time is MAX
ing the conquest of Formosa in the
ocean, and sending great army into
Turkestan to recopauer the territory
taken by Mussulmsns in 1866. Part of
this territory has since fallen into the
hands of Russia, and ~as visited by

IT is a melancholy sign of the univer-
salty with which Americans seem to be
forsaking farm work, that, even in a
period when the dullness of manufac-
lures and trade leaves thousands unem-
pIoyed, the farmers find it hard to get
sufficient help. The complaint is gen
eral in all parts of the country that
sufficient help cannot be obtained to
handle the crops with.

THE difficulty of recovering any thing
from Boss Tweed and his associates may
be seen from the fact that, of the Isl
vouchers on which warrants were issued,
al of them have been stolen, and the
plaintiff is required to produce the
stolen vouchers and bills attached, and
specify which portion of them is fraud
ulent. AS the bills cannot be repro
duced, the dilemma is apparent. The
plunderers seem to be safe.

THE stockholders of the Augusta
cotton factory have resolved upon the
issuance of bonds to the extent of
100000. AS this concern has hitherto
been believed to be the most successful
cotton manufacturing establishment in
the south, the fact that it is compelled
to borrow money on SO large scale
looks rather discouraging for the imme-
date future of that industry.
