The Old, Old Story.

A large class of men who are now mi
grating to the Black Hills from the older
Western settlements, says the New York
Times, is composed of mechanics, arti-
sans, professional men, and clerks, who
have saved little money by years of in
dustry, and who hope to double it, or
make fortune, in the gold mines.
They spend all their savings in pro-
curing an outfit; and often, without
anything but the most vague and errone-
GUS ideas of mining work, imagine that
if they can only reach the new Ell
Dorado, all will be we'll with them. In
their eyes the gold is lying in the
gulches in heaps, only waiting for some
one to pick it up and wash off the dirt.
They go, endure hardships such as they
never dreamed of, work harder than
they ever had to before, and possibly,
at the end of the year, think themselves
lucky to be above starvation point.
Most likely they reach this depth before
that time, and hire themselves out as
cooks, laborers, or in some other kind
of drudgery, for wages far below what
they could get in their regular calling
in the settlements. The hundreds OF
men of this class who are ruined by
every stampede is one of the saddest
features of these extraordinary migra
tions.
We hear little of them now in connec
ton with the Black Hills fever; but the
lapse of few months will tell a differ
emit story. The people in the towns
where the outftting is done have toc
much interest in keeping up the excite
ment to letthe actual truth be told abou
the Black Hills country; but, as thu
placer mines are exhausted, which the,
probably will be very soon, the man,
hundreds of returning unfortunates, wht
have lost everything in their feverish de
sire to make fortunes in q month, will
tell their woes in tones which will hav,
quite a different ring from the louC
publications we now hear about the i'm
mense wealth of the new country. A,
to the rush of white adventures beint
kept out of the reservation by the mill
tary or the Sioux, there seems it'll
chance for that. These people will fgh
the Indians, and be glad of the chanc
to do it and double the plumber O
troops likely to be spared for the servic
would be insufficient to stop the swarm
of men which now seem to be pourin,
into the hills.

Printing Office Secrets.

We find the following in the Bruins
wick Telegraph: A properly con
Quoted printing office is as much a Sc.
cret as Masonic lodge. The printers
are not under oath of secrecy, but al
ways feel themselves as truly in honor
bound to keep Office secrets as though
triple oathed. Any employee in print
ing office who willingly disregards this
rule in relation to printing Office secrets
would not only be scorned by hi,
brethren of the craft, but would lose his
position at once. We make this state
ment because it sometimes happens that
a communication appears in a newspaper
under an assumed signature which ex.
cites comments, and various parties try
to find out who is the author. Let al
be saved the trouble of questioning til,
employees of the printing office. They
are know nothings en- such points a,
these. On such matters they have eye
and ears, no mouth, and if any fail t,
observe this rule let them be put dow
as dishonorable members Of the craft
1t is the same in job printing. If any
thing is to be printed and kept secret
let proper notice be given of the desir
for secrecy, and you might as well ques
ton the "Sphynx" as one of the prin
tiers, so that even the secret books 70
lodges are printed without fear.

A LOWly Life.

Francis Deak, the Hungarian states
man, who died the other day, was the
son of an inn keeper near Kelirda, in
Hungary, and was brought into the
world with great difficulty. At the time
of his mothers confinement the physi-
clan in attendance announced that the
case was difficult one that it would
be necessary to sacrifice either the
mother or the child. The father, being
10th to reconcile himself to the loss OF
either, called in the services of q
Franciscan monk, Lucas Tietl, who
dwelt in neighboring monastery, and
who was celebrated for lis skill in medi
cal practice. The monk saved the two
lives. The child was named Francis, il
gratitude to the Franciscan, and whe1
the monastery was burned down few
years back, it was rebuilt by Francis
Deak to great extent.

A FOrger's Wife.

OF all those who have been wronged
by Winslow's misdeeds, says the Boston
Herald, there is one, and that one the
heaviest sufferer of them all, whose
name has not appeared in any schedules
of the unfortunates who have confded
in him and lost. The person to whom
we refer is the forger's wife, who, only
few short weeks ago, was in the enjoy
ment of happy home and surrounded
with all the comforts and Injuries of
our New England rural life. To her,
all the then present surroundings were
agreeable, and all the prospects of the
future were full of hope. To-day she is
a stranger in strange land-bereft of
everything-through no fault of her
own, and bearing the awful load of
shame and sorrow that should attach
only to him by whom she has been so
foully wronged. 1t is hard to conceive
of a more pitiable condition in which an
honest and confding woman can be
placed, than is SWinslow's' wife as she
awaits in London, stranger in strange
land, the course of events that shall
bring her felon husband home, toreceive
the penalty of his crimes.
We understand that she is an ami.
able, intelligent and refined woman; 8
devoted wife and faithful mother; one
who would shrink in horror from every
suggestion of wrong doing, and who, ii
the education and care of their only
child, has obeyed the Scriptural injunc
ton to train him up in the way he
should CO." Such a succession of ca
lamities as have fallen upon her, very
rarely fall to the lot of any who hav,
filed the station in life from which sh,
has been so suddenly cast down. Thu
loss of property affords, seldom, an oo
casion for the grief that is really heart
rending; sickness and the slow wasting
of disease have their compensations il
the tender consideration and asiduou
attention of relatives and friends; ant
time and hope alleviate even the be
reavements of the grave. Not all thes
combined, it seems to us, can compar
with that terrible state of mental suffer
ing to one so circumstanced as the per
son to whom we refer. If ever a wifi
stood in need of sympathy, and all tn
best offices of regard and friendship
from man, and woman too, it is certain
ly this forlorn and stricken woman, VIII
might, with more propriety than an
one in ten thousand whom we meet i
our daily walks, accompany her uncon
scious claim upon us for Christian o
human sympathy, with the declaration
"My sorrows are greater than ca
bear"

The Dairy Interests.

The Centennial committee of the
American dairymen's association met in
Philadelphia, recently, and decided
upon plan for exhibition, including
the erection of butter and cheese fac
DRY of the most approved design
to cost not less than $4,000. Agents
will be appointed to visit the various
cities and dairy sections to solicit con-
tributlons and products for exhibition
also a committee to apportion the ex-
pense attending the exhibit among the
representatives of the States which in
tend to participate. Prof. L. B. Arnold
will be recommended as one of the Jurors
to be selected by the Centennial com.
mission. There are about 1000 cheese
factories in the United States, of which
nearly 1000 are in New York State
alone. The annual productions of the
dairy interests are estimated at 300, 000,,
000 pounds of cheese, and from $780,.
600, 900 to 1000, 900, 900 pounds of but
ter. Hon. David A. Wells, in 1869, esti
mated the value of these products to
be about $4O0, 900, 600.

George Washington.

The dress in which George Washing
ton generally appeared at church was a
laced hat, stone colored coat with gilt
buttons, blue surtout, buff knee breeches,
boots and gilt spurs. Being held the
best horseman and boldest fox hunter in
Virginia, it was natural that he followed
the fashion prevalent among the young
gallants and came to church on horse
back. He used a Pelham bit and gener-
ally rode with holsters at his saddle
peak. The portrait by Peale, which is
considered by his relatives the most
correct one, represents him at the age of
forty in the uniform of colonel of the
Twenty second Virginia militia. There
is no trace of resemblance to the grand
motherly portrait by Stuart, oven allow
ing for the difference of age. The
former agrees in personal appearance
with the characters given him by neigh
borbood tradition-a bold, dashing gal
liant, even after his marriage; rather
foppish in dress, and safe, according as
occasion offered, to win lady's smile OF
the fox's brush.

DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pei
lets are so compounded from concentrated
principles, extracted from roots and herbs, as
to combine in each small granule, scarcely
Target than mustard seed, as much cathartic
power as is contained in any larger pills for
sale in drug stores. They are not only pleasant
to take, but their operation is easy-unat-
tended with any gripping pain. They operate
without producing any constitutional disturb,
ance. UAlike other cathartics, they do not
render the bowels costive after operation, but,
on the contrary they establish permanently
healthy action. Being entirely vegetable, nc
particular care is required while using them.
$500 reward is offered by the proprietor to
any one who will detect in these pellets any
calomel or other form of mercury, mineral
poison, Or injurious drug They are sold by
druggists.

What to Do with the Straw.

Many farmers in "the West" and
some in what we call "tho East" are
troubled as to what to do with the piles
of straw which lie about the fields. The
solution is easy where considerable
stock is kept. Some poles should be
set in the ground, and rails or other
poles laid upon them so as to form q
sloping roof. This is made near or
around the place chosen for thrashing
the grain. The straw from the thrash
ing machine is heaped upon the rails,
making a long stack, which forms three
sides OF square, with the open side
toward the south, and leaving q space
beneath it in which cattle may be
sheltered from storms. In this in
closure some rough troughs or racks
may be placed, from which to feed corn.
Here the cattle will feed and lie, or will
lie at night under shelter, while feeding
during the day on corn in the field. As
the straw that is given them becomes
trampled and mixed with the droppings,
further supply is thrown down from
the stack. The accumulation may be
removed and spread upon the field to be
plowed in when it is SO required, and the
stakes pulled up and carried to another
place where they may be needed for the
same purpose. Such a shelter as this
would be very serviceable for the pur
pose of making manure, even where
straw is scarce.

Mr.. Millington, the proprietor, has just
completed the furnishing Of the Jeffsrson
House at New Castle, which has been &C.
complished at an outlay of much money and
trouble. The jefferson House from gar
ret to cellar is now one of the very dnesf
hotels in the State. The parlcrs are models
of taste and elegance and all the rooms Of
the house are in keeping. There is not an
other hotel in the State, which can claim
better accommodations than the Jefferson
House, and every one who visits Mr.. MIL
lington will find that he understands how to
keep a good house. His table is furnished
with every dslicacy that the market affords
and the employees of the house are polite
and attentive. The repairs upon the ex-
terror of the hotel, and the porch which Mr..
Hurbert is building will soon be COM
completed, and will add much to the sp-
pearance of the house and the convenience
Of the guests.

possess, chain made of cast iron. It con.
sists of thirty eight links, to represent the
thirty eight states. Upon the top of each
link is the name of the state tits intended
to represent, and the name of the
Governor of that state. In the whole

that ever the ingenuity of the ironworker
was so cultured as to enable him to make
q cast iron chain.

efowr PRODUCTS.
The folks down the state appear to be
alive to the Importance of having some ex-
hibition of the fruits of our state at the Cen
tennial, and the Central Delaware Fruit
Growers. Association held meeting on
Wednesday evening last, the special sub.
ject considered by the meeting being the
exhibition of our fruits at the Centennial.
Mr.. Causey, of the State Centennial Com
mission, was present, and stated to the
meeting that he thought it practicable for
the Association to secure:proper space IN the
exhibition building, provided the applica-
tion be promptly made. The members gen
orally favored the project, and on motion
Of Mr., 8. Todd Jenkins, the Secretary was
instructed to make application for thirty
two square feet of counter space. Mr..
Causey promised the Association that the
State Com missioners would assume the
responsibility of keeping their fruits prop
erly displayed during the season, and sug-
gested the proper methods of packing and
forwarding the same. The railroads, he
said, would transport all articles for exhibit
free of charge. Both the basket compan-
les here have agreed to furnish free all
necessary for the display of fruit. The fol-
lowing gentlemen were then appointed as
the Centennial Exhibition Committee: K
H. Gilman, George Hoff, Chas. Barker, s.
Todd Jenkins, W. R. Phillips. The Chair
man, Mr.. Gilman, read to the Association
an interesting letter from an absent MEM
Der, Mr. E. Hopkins, who is now in Charles
town, s. c., on Fruit and Vegetable culture
in that section. The Association adjourn
ed till the first Wednesday in May.
