Tho Market valss Of Riggs and Poultry.

The poultry and eggs annually raised
and consumed in the United States il
immensely greater than most Of US have
any ides Of. To say nothing of the
thousands of prime "fancy" fowls and
pigeons every year disposed of to anna.
teurs, small breeders and public exhibi.
tons, in America, the quantities of farm
poultry and eggs-including the products
of the turkeys, geese, ducks, fowls and
pigeons, produced on this side Of the
Atlantic, are enormous.
There is no doubt of the truth of the
statement recently made by an agricul.
tural lecturer, that the aggregate weight
of dead poultry sold yearly in this coun-
try exceeds by many tons the weight Of
dead beef consumed in our makets!
The products of poultry is continually
on the increase, also. There never has
been, and probably never will be any
glut in the market Of those desirable
edibles, good chickens and fresh eggs.
The price has kept steadily up to paying
figures, too; and whether the times be
hard or easy the change in the current
value of This product is not noticeable.
If we were to set down here some of the
figures that were lately given Of the esti-
mated millions of dozens of eggs sold in a
single large city market, in 1875, or note
the millions Of pounds of chickens and
other poultry there disposed of in a sin.
gle year, the facts would be almost start.
ling aud seem incredible. Yet it is true
that no class of live stock in the country
foots up solid money value, annually, the
sum that is realized by farmers. poul-
terers. and egg deales in the United
States at the present time, for these al
ways desirable and ready salaule commo.
dities.
OF course the business Of poultry and
egg production is disseminated over a
wide field, and great number Of persons
arc engaged in producing this aggregate,
which is brought in individual small
quantities, monthly. But when we
know that in . single county Of Ohio,
last year. according to official statistics,
there were over $780, 900 worth of eggs
and chickens marketed, we can fan
cy what the grand total value of the
counties in all the States may be.
It is by no means trivial business,
indeed, There are those as we limited
lately in these columns, disposed to ridi.
cule this occupation, and the parties who
follow it. But If those who incline to
jest at the chicken fanciers and fowl
breeders of this country would reflect
upon tie solid Importance and large
value of this interest in America, such
ridicule would he turned to wonder at
the real facts in the case.-Fancier's

IN NIEMORIAM.

DIED-In Austin, Texas, on Tuesday
evening, July 25, 1876, Mary Kavanaugh
Jackson, aged twenty years.
It is with emotions of profound grief that
in the above few lines we read recorded the
departure from our midst of friend whose
place no one can fill.
Few women have lived who embodied in
themselves more noble graces of mind and
heart than characterized the brief but beau
tiful life of our cherished friend.
Mary jackson was a woman Of rare fidel-
ity in friendship and love, a woman whose
whole life seemed actuated by the sublime
principles of truth and honor. Noble in
impulse, consistent in duty, self-sacrifcing
IN her devotion to friends and kindred,
and with that high order of intellectual en-
dowment peculiar to those of her moral
sensibility, her memory will remain with
US the realization of all that Is pure, gener-
Gus and good. To her family in their I'M
| utterable woe, we can administer the
precious consolation that her spirit. like
the fragrance of some lovely l,wer, has
been waited to the bosom of her S lvor and
is there at home. To her dear friends
whose grief was like the mourning of
Rachael that refuses to be comforted be-
cause she is not, she leaves as a rich
legacy of blessing an example of gentleness
purity and faith. The language of pane
gyric seems almost an insult in her praise,
for the reverence we feel for her character
is is of the kind that words cannot portray.
To us all there remains the certain ssur-
ance that We have now an angel friend and
sister in Heaven, whose life on Garth it will
be the contamination of our happiness to
resemble, and whose joy in Heaven it will
be our last hope to attain.
| yves e but dimly thr ugh the mists and va ors,
| Amidst these earthly damps;
| What seem o us but sad funeral tapers

WASHINGTON, August 1.-The Senate at
IL o'clock to-day proceeded to vote upon
the articles of impeachment against VIM.
Belknap, late Secretary of War, in accord
ance with an order adopted yesterday. Mr..
Belknap was not present to-day, but was
represented by Mr.. Carpenter of counsel.
Upon the first article of impeachment thir-
ty-five Senators voted guilty and twenty
five not guilty, for want of jurisdiction.
Those who voted guilty were Bayard, Booth,
Cameron of Pennsylvania, Cockrell, Coop
er, Davis, Dawes, Dennis. Edmunds, Cor
don, Hamilton, Harvey, Hitchcock, Kelly,

declined to vote on the ground that the
Senate had no jurisdiction.
The presiding officer announced that
two-thirds of the Senate have not voted
guilty, and therefore the respondent was
acquitted on the charge in the first article.
Nearly all those voting not guilty made
a brief statement that they did so through
want of jurisdiction. His acquittal of all
charges Is certain. The Senate then pro-
ceeded to vote on the second article, when
thiuy-six Senator'S voted guilty; twenty
five, not guilty.
Mr.. Msxey, who did not answer on the
first roll call, voted guilty upon the second
article. Those Senators who voted not
guilty repeated their reasons for doing sa,
being for want OF Jurisdiction, as stated
upon the first roll call.
