EDITOR News: The New Years Eve
ball. although a rather impromptu al
fair, was one Of the pleasantest parties OF
the season. There was a large company
present, and all seemed bent on having
an enjoyable time. and succeeded. There
was one very Objectionable feature, how
ever, which marred the pleasure Of many
of the dancers. A crowd of loud, noisy
boys were admitted into the hall, and
made themselves an insufferabIe nuisance
by their hoodlumish conduct. The floor
manager either would not, or could not,
keep them quiet, or make them leave the
hall. although frequently requested to do
so. When will parents learn that a ball
room is no place for children? 1t seems
az if any nj possessing a modicum OF
common sense, would know enough to
keep their children out of the way on such
occasions. / have seen parents and
| elder sisters look complacently on and
hear their children or younger brothers
insult a comparative stranger, without
so much as Offering a word of reproof.
| One yearns to exercise his muscle on the
young reprobates at such times; but LEI
him beware how he yields to the impulse,
or an indignant mother or sister will give
him a tongue flashing he will remember,
and he may consider himself fortunate il
an enraged father does not hash him up
with a carving knife the next morning.
Now, | do not object to children IN their
places. but when they are allowed to mai
all my enjoyment at a public party I must
protest, and | am quite positive that
majority of the dancers present on New
Years Eve will devoutly respond Amen.
If those who have heretofore offended in
this way will soothe their indignation al
my rather plain remarks, and then en-
deavor to take a common sense view OF
the matter, / firmly believe they will see
the error of their ways. be more consid'
crate in the future, and receive the bless.

A BODY of ~high-grade free milling ore
has been struck in the Kentuck mine, an
old location near the town of Hamilton,
White Pine. There is some pretty good
ore in the hills about Hamilton. but it is
in lunches. and is only good for what is
in sight, as a single shot may take the
miner out of ore and into solid dolomite
The above is from the Austin Rereile.
1t is true that most of the ore found here
is in "bunches." but the lunches are too
large to be exhausted by q single shot.
The kind of punches now common here
are like the one the Eberhardt & Aurora
Company have been working on for the
past ten months, which has been supply
ing a 30-stamp mill during that time, and
with ore enough in sight for another
years run. and which has yielded to the
company between $780, 600 and 800. 600
per month. Has Lander any little one
shot lunches that can do better than
this ? We could name a number of other
mines here that are producing ore con-
stantly, which could hardly be classed as
one-shot punches. Chlor. ding has pretty
much been done away with in White Pine
and deep mining taken its place.

TIE KHEDIvE's BANKERs.-The Lon
don Monetary and Mining Gazette says
1T is said that the Rothschilds are to be
henceforth the financial agents of the
Khedive. This is very probable, and if
it should prove true, the appointment
will show the discernment Of the ruler OF
Egypt. The first step to his rescue from
impending destruction was to break away
from the wretched usurers, who hung
like a milestone about his neck. Besides,
the Rothschilds have always been sue
cess full, and not one of the public loans
brought out by this house has ever been
in default. The presage of their name
is, therefore, immense. and the credit OF
the Khedive will rise incidentally as soon
as ever it is made known that R~othchilds
have taken him by the hand. They are
the kings of finance, and can render such
help to their clients as perhaps no other
people can do. I counsel the Khedive
to hang or to them as t. a sheet anchor,
If it be true that he has got hold Of the
anchor. He cannot be in better hands,"

Especial Dispatch to the New York Times.l
ST.. LOUIS, Dec. MFRS. Joyce. wife OF Col.
Joyce, arrived in Jefferson City yesterday morn
ing, ana with her little girl and babe at once
proceeded to the Penitentiary. where her hus-
band is confined. She had not seen Joyce since
his incarceration, and the meeting between the
two ia described to have been most affecting.
During the recent severe trials Mrs. Joyce has
sustained herself with remarkable heroism.
While waiting in the reception-room OF the
prison yesterday she endeavored to preserve her
accustomed composure, but when her husband
emerged from an adjoining room. clad in his
prison stripes, she gave way to over-Durdened
feelings. She finally became composed and had
a conversation with him lasting several hours.
joyce bore the meeting and the tears of his wife
manfully, but when the prison authorities noti-
fed them that the interview must end, and she
arose to say goodbye, and told him that she
would return the next day and bring the baby,
born since his Imprisonment, to see him., he
broke down and left her presence abruptly
During the absence of Mrs. Joyce from her hotel
the United States Marshal, accompanied by AS
sistant District Attorney Bliss and a detective
proceeded to the room which had been assigned
her and seized all her baggage. The trunks were
then opened in the presence of Mrs. Joyce ano
| searched for United States bonds and othel
wealth of Joyce alleged to be in his wife's pos
session. Mrs. Joyce took the matter quietly anc
watched the examination of her dresses and hel
baby's apparel with evident concern. Though
her entire baggage was overhauled no bonds o.
papers could be found. except a few letters re

to pay for the white paper and postage

A New Forage Plant.

During the session OF the agricultural
convention at Gainesville, we made the
pleasant acquaintance OF Mr.. s. W.
Brooks, delegate rom Brooks county
lie carried to the convention samples of
forage plant which is now extensively
cultivated in Brooks and some Of the ad-
joining counties of Georgia and Florida,
and which is held in great esteem there
for its valuable properties. He calls it
"Indian clover" "beggar weed" 1t
bears a resemblance TO the plant which
we call "beggar's lice" and produces
an adhesive seed very similar to that
weed. But as it is cut for forage when
in bloom and before the seed hardens,
there is no trouble in this score. The seed
is sown in drills, about a. thick as cotton
seed, though the drills are only two feet
apart. The plant grows to the height of
four, and even five or six feet, and has
a bush top, full Of leaves very much re-
sembling the foliage of the field pea.
They are evidently fully as palatable
and nutritious as the pea leaves, and do
not fall off like the latter. To the human
taste the dried leaf is sweet, agreeable
anu suCCuient, anu It's uhKIhuCe u "
pleasant as that Of clover. Mr.. Brook.
says that when this provendcr is put in
a trough with other kinds, the mules
will push the oats and fodder out Of the
way to get the "beggar weed" For
milch cows il is especially valuable, be-
ing rich and juicy, and eagerly devoured
by them.
The yield Of this plant is very great.
II may be cut three times in season
growing up repeatedly from the old
stumps, and yields many hundreds ol
pounds 10 the acre at each cutting. The
samples which Mr.. Brooks carried to
Gainesville were Of the second cutting OF
this year, and he will certainly get one,
and, perhaps, two more cuttings. II is
not perennial, but the seed must be
planted each year. II produces well on
poor lands, but, Of course, does better on
rich soils. Horses mules and cattle will!
eat |! up clean, stalks and all, and thrive
on IL.

To COlOred Voters In the South.
New York Herald.

We advise the colored voters in the
southern states to support the democratic
state and local tickets. They will prob
ably, in general, want to vote for Gov
Hayes, and this they can easily do at
the same time that they vote for the
democratic local and state tickets. II is
time for them to exercise discrimination
in their voting. To "vote the straight
ticket" is not, as they have been tau ght
by corrupt white men, the highest duty
Of an American citizen. They may
reasonably say that they prefer a repub
lican federal administration but in such
states as South Carolina, Louisiana and
Mississippi, they ought to see that they
have been in local politics emily the in.
struments of bad men, who mislead them
and use them for purposes antagonistic
10 their own interests ard to those of the
communities of which they are a part.
Senator Boutwell,, one of the most zeal
Gus and watchful friends of the southern
colored men, was 30 impressed with the
condition of Mississippi politics that he
advised the colored leaders in that state
To nominate none but leading white men
Of character and standing in the commu-
nifty, native born and property owners,
10 the Offices, and to support these faith
fully. This was sound advice. If they
do this they will give the state peace and
themselves the good will of the whole
community. So in South Carolina, Gen.
Hampton, one OF the foremost citizens Of
the state, solemnly and publicly pledges
himself that, if he is chosen governor, he
will execute impartial justice between
white and black and see that the colored
people are secure in all their rights in
every part of the state. We advise the
colored man TO take him at his word and
give him trial. He promises more than
Gov. Chamberlain has performed, and
he has the ability to do wha. he says.
In I.ouisiaaa there can be no doubt of
the duty of colored voters; they ought
to support the conservative ticket and
put down the corrupt republican ring
which has 40 long kept the state in tur-
moil. If the cOlored voters it these
states should declare openly that they
mean to vote for Hayes, but that they
will everywhere support the local demo-
cratic tickets, they would put a new
face on the campaign in the south and
they would only be doing, after all, what
honest white republicans in Louisiana
and Mississippi have been doing for
several years.
