way, retarded any Improvement that
might have been expected 4, In fact, it
has been impossible to come to- an un-
derstanding on any special action, and
uniformity of sentiment has. been en-
tirely out of the question. In January,
1873, the price ofAmerican No. was $40
to $50; in December of the same year
it was 1913 to $34; in January, 1874, 1874
to 1886, and in December, 1874, $24 to
$25. Gray Forge, in January, 1873
was quotetiyat 1898 to $41; in December
$25 to 1928, while in the last month of
the year just closed $40 to 1913 was the
selling figure. Last of all, Scotch No.
|, which sold the first portion of 1873 at
$55 to 1862, was obtainable last month at
1874 to 1913. These figures certainly
speak as conclusively as any facts that
could be advanced, and they Indicate
the very remarkable falling off in prices
during the year which just closed.

The EIectOr Of HesSe-CasseI.

Frederick William l., eleotor OF
Hesse- Oassel, whose death is announc
ed, was born at Hanau, August 20,
1902, studied at Marburg and Leipsig,
and, September 80, 1881, was called to
the regency Of the duchy,, his father
and his mistress. the countess Of Reich
enbach, being compelled to retire from
public life. The, regent acting with the
minister Hasenpfug, endeavored to
annul the constitution which had been
guaranteed by his father in the early
part of. the same year, and the
latter being impeached, saved him
self by resignation. On the death Of
his father, Nov 80, 1847, Frederick
William, T. became elector. In 1848 he
consented to make some liberal conces-
sions to his people, and to. govern con-
stitutic nally, but in 1850 he broke his
promises, and actually recalled the OBJ
noxious minister Hasenpfug. The
troops of the confederation occupied
the grand duchy, and after many dis
cushions at theI Germanic diet, which
brought Austria and, Prussia to the
verge of war, sort of compromise was
effected. The elector,, who contracted
morganatic marriage with Gertrude,
princess of Hanau, has no legitimate
heirs .E q 81 iaUAG3D

These letters Ger the faded pile -
hnger, thinking foolish thoughtD
That one will answer to beguile
The pain that memory has brought
To- dav. as erstwhile. Now as then, ssa,
One leads me through them all again ff
Oh, what may be of generous life
Disclosed within a single fold
OF sheathing paper, when the knife
Has opened to its heart of gold
The ripe pomegranates crimson core
Is pale beside such sanguine store.
Now comes. az once, and coming goes,
The postman on his round the same:
And yet, all me he little knows
How poorer far than when he came
FuIl-freighted from some favoring air,
With these white doves that sought his care.
Beneath the down, a carcanet
OF shining gems each presence wore.
A living flame is in them yet,
And spreads its glow the paper Ger
Wits sparkling jewels set in forms
OF light. that even the ruby warns
You've seen white sails on soft blue seas
Flower tufts atiame on velvet lawns
Fair fields beneath the bloss ming trees.
And snowy crests in rosy dawns,
So. bloom that other bloom presents.
Beauty that beauty supplements,
Is symbol of the harmony
In which his thought and word had grown
To charming shapes Of symmetry
Each by subtle virtue known
Yet perfected by that sweet grace
OF fairness wed to fitGest place.
Such letters never more to me
Will come as friendships messengers,
'Tis only left that tenderly
My thoughts retrace the thought that stirs
In these mute words. The lutte may lie
Untouched it's music cannot die!

The owner of a Nashville street rail
road tried to ride on one of his cars last
week for nothing, and the driv II
bounced him. The driver, who had
read that story about the great warrior

be promoted, but is now looking for a

window of a store, the other day, when
two boys halted, and one remarked ::
'"Say, jim, don't you wish we had ten
cents to buy present for our poor lit

THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE H.

LuMBER.-A few days since the price of
coarse lumber suddenly tell 10 this vicinity to q
figure below thatfor which it can be produced
aud transported. Hemlock boards and joists,
which sold for fifteen cents, now sell for twelve
cents; spruce floor plank sells for sixteen cents,
former price eighteen cents, and the price Of
other coarse lumber in like proportion. We
understand that this fall in price WIS caused
by the action of dealers 10 Glen's Falls Fort
Edward and ,neighboring places, they having
,bargaiped with New York dealers to sell a,
lowest prices for. June. This action caused
great activity 10 the trade. The prices were
ruinous to manufacturers, aud the market not
being overstocked. au attempt was made to
raise the price again. The demand at present
exceeds the supply, and as the water 10 the
river has already dropped to a summer level, 1t
is only With difficulty that logs are run from
the boomsto the mills. Uoless heavy rains
come very soon, some of the mills will have to
shut down entirely.-Troy Times.

the greatest pleasures which 50. Nicholas
brings to its readers, Is certainly the monthly
chapters of Miss Alcott's story. This time we
catch delightful glimpse of the Eight Cou-
sins' at homo and in the very midst of the con.
fusion and riot produced by the return OF their
sailor-uncle. Just ms interesting, also, is the
sight of Rose in her new fancycostume, and the
peep with her into that curious room never be.
fore explored, where she makes great discov-
cry.
But Rose is not the only character in the
March number who meets with n remarkable
surprise, for in Mr.. Trowbridgc's serial the
Young Surveyor is as completely astonished by
finding his stolen horse when and where he
does. If ever there was an Ingenious horse.
thief, the fellow who captured 'Snowfoot" was
he 1t is proof of his cunning, that Jack, after
all his efforts to find the missing animal, and
after his search has been at last so strangely
rewarded, is not yet "out of the woods" and
seems to be threatened with another unexpect
ed adventure.
Almost all boys and girls like narratives of
wars and battles, and they will find a story of
this sort in the poem called "The War of the
Rats and Mice" which is every whit as thrilling
In its way as the deeds ofany tavorite hero from
