Scribner For July,

Though not entirely given over to
Centennial topics, contains much. the
publishers claim, that will just now be
of peculiar interest to the American
public. The accounts Of the signing Of
the Declaration (even those by the sign
era themselves) are very conflicting, and
Col. Higginson' "Story Of the Signing, I"
in this number, Is a concise and reliable
review ofthe subject The illustrations
of this paper are quite striking. Recent
research has shown that some of our
most orthodox and cherished legends of
the Declaration will not do ''to tie to.
But. if we must give up the "Ring,
Grandpal "story, as Col. Higginson seems
TO think, we shall find, by way Of com
pensation. plenty of authentic legends
about Washington in the next paper:
"A Little Centennial Lady" by Mrs.

I:ie Harper Brothers.

In ,he list of subscribers to the Cen
tennial Celebration fund published on
Saturday, the name of Harper Il Broth
ers appears as "Harper Brothers & Co.
. In view Of the fact that of the original
brothers only Fletcher Harper survives,
and that the firm now embraces about a
dozen sons and grandsons, the newly
extemporized firm name may be snppOs-
ed 10 mean "Harper Brothers and Cous-
ins" Such a title would not be more
singular than are many things about this
great house. The original firm of James
and John Harper had no articles of CO.
partnership. Each member drew what
he liked for family expenses, and the
profits of the concern were always rem
vested in the business. No personal ac-
counts were kept after the younger broth
ers Wesley and Fletcher were taken into
the house, and the profits still go to
swell the now immense capital. Fletch
er, the youngest and surviving brother,
used TO say jocosely to his brothers that
they cheated him hy demanding $1,000
for his admission to the partnership. The
partnership is new limited to the
male memb bers of the families, the
daughters receiving dowers on
marrying thus the firm is al
ways to remain Harper & Brothers. The
surnames of the original brothers are
continued with religions accuracy, so
that there are several Josephs, two or
three Fietchers, two or more Johns, &c,
who are distinguished in the familiar
| language of their own counting room
hv such titles as Brooklyn joe" be-
cause he lives in Brooklyn), "Jce ODD"

per, so called, to distinguish him from
Fifth Avenue Jack" since dead, and
"Fletch, Jr, ;" and Fletch., %" son and
grandson of the Major" who is never
| called Fletcher at all. There are sever
al other distinctive nick names which
we do not recall The firm have many
of the characteristics of Dickens
"Cheeryble Brothers," including a YER
liable Tim Linkinwater in the cashier.
Demarest, who does pretty much as he
pleases, abuses the firm from senior to
junior, whenever he feels like it. and is
one of the best natured and best hearted,
and most popular fellows in the world.
In revenge the firm occasionally conspire
to play such practical jokes on Tim as
hanishing him for summer trips to Eur
npe with $1,000 for expenses, "only to
get rid of him." Altogether it is a very
happy commercial family.-[New York

Curious Story About SpectacIes.

The Joliet (Ill.) Sun tells the follow
ing: "a boy name David Annett, some
days since, plowed mp an old pair of
gold trimmed spectacles on the farm of
William Frouser. near Plainfeld in this
county. That Of itself was matter of
little note, but on examination there
was found TO he engraven on one of the
golden bows the inscriptions: TO Rev.
James Sowden, 184S.' On the other
bow the words: From Mrs. Jane c.
Washington, Mt. Vernon Rev. james
SOwden was Methodist minister, a ma
tive of Virginia, and came to this coun-
~ at an early day from the vicinity of
Mt. Vernon. He WAS a neighbor and a
friend of the Washington family, and
these spectacles were given him by Jane
c. Washington, a niece of the Father of
his Country. Mr. Sowden has been
dead a number of years. The field
where the spectac!es were plowed mp was
a part of the Sowden farm. A son of
Mr.. Sowden, who lives in the neigbor-
hood, hearing of the matter, went to the
young man Annett and asked to see the
relic Upon looking a moment at the
Iong-lost articles. he remarked that they
belonged to his father, and put them in
to his pocket. The boy objected TO such
a summary disposition of the treasure,
and through his-next friend repIevined
the goods on Wednesday of this week.
The suit will be tried before Justice
Patricks, of this city. The glasses were
found in metal case which was badly
rusted. bnt the spectacle frame being
gold is we'll preserved, and the double
convex glasses are as good as ever. The
hows are fiat and quite heavy, and the
bands or rims around the glasses are also
heavy and have peculiar tinge. The
intrinsic value is not more than twelve
or fifteen dollars, but the historical and
family associations are supposed TO add
a peculiar value to the descendants Of
Mr.. Sowden. They are now in posses

Profits of Kentucky Farming.

The Louisville Commercial draws the
rosy picture: "No business at the present
time is paying so we'll as farming on
good Kentucky lands. In no other de-
partment is a comfortable living so Sc
cure or profit so large, on the capital in
vested. Last fall farmers got good prices
for wheat, and about all the profit there
was in hogs; the heavy failures in the
pork trade show that the packers made a
poor investment. The farmers have
reason to be satisfied with the result in
respect to these two products. The
tobacco market gives them still better
ground for encouragement.
An acre of good land. well cultivated.
readily yields 1000 pounds of good to
bacco. which sells readily at from S100
to $40. A good hand will give proper
attention to four acres of tobacco, which
ia worth from 800 to $3.50 OF the GER
tainty of the crop it may be said that it
iA one Of the hardest of plants; its fight
ing qualities being about equal to those
of Indian corn. Frost. floods, bugs, and
worms may attack it in turn, bnt it al
most always comes off conqueror, with
its broad and fragrant banner flying.
Another fact, especially worthy of notice
by the farmers of the West, is. that fine,
improved tobacco lands can be readily
bought ct from $50 to $50 per acre in
the finest tobacco-growing districts.-
These are the prices of land which yields
from 500 to Sl40 per acre, and not IN
frequently more, with careful cultiva-
tion. Choice timber lands. which pro
dnce the finest quality of tobacco can he
bought in many counties for from 80 to
S12 per acre. One good crop will thus
pay for several acres of land. When
low State taxes are taken into cOnsidera-
lion, it will be readily seen that there is
no investment at this time which prom
ises not only security, but handsome
return like farming in Kentucky. A
farmer who can put to work one or two
good hands beside himself and will avoid
debt and side speculatioDs,' as Colonel
Sellers" has it. as he would Il viper, is
certain, in this State, of an abundant
supply of fat lambs, sweet butter, tur-
keys, spring chickens, and straw berries
for his own table, and handsome cash
crop for market"

A Fatal VelOeipede Ride-A Beauti-
fal Girl Hurled from High RO Jf
Into the Street and Killed.

The occupants at 204 West Twentieth
street were startled. on Saturday evening
by a glimpse of a human form that pas
sed downward before the open window,
and struck with a thud on the brick
pavement below. 1t was the body of
Irene johnson, a beautiful twelve-years
old daughte of Widow Mary A. John
son, an opposite neighbor. She had fall
len from the fiat roof of the adjoining
two and one-half story building, and near
her lay the wreck of two wheeled vel
ocipede.
At the inquest last evening scores Of
sympathizing neighbors bent over the
casket containing the remains, and join
ed with the Coroner in the verdict Of no
one to blame No 2O4 Twentieth street
ia a stable, and on the fiat roof Of it
children have been in the habit of play
ing. Irene, who was a general favorite
with them, started for the roof, and on
her way up took the velocipede left by
some of the boys in the loft. Reaching
the roof she carried it to the highest
part, and, having mounted, started down
the incline. Not word was uttered as
she sped on, but the little children threw
up their hands in despair, and, when she
went over the edge, were 80 overcome by
horror that they lay down upon the roof,
and there remained stnpefied.
