Reggar-I.ice.

Beggar-lce, or Indian clover (Which it
ought to be called, as being the more agree
able nance, is coming into notice in Georgia
as valuable farming plant. At the recent
State Agricultural Convention it was strong
ly recommended as the plant destined to be
very useful for forage and grazing in the
South, and TO supplement both clover and
peas. This leguminous plant, known bo-
tanically as deS7nodiatm Can0SceneS, has been
grown in Florida thirty years, in southern
Georgia twelve years. Captain Davis has
had an experience Of eight years in its cul-
ture. 1t is an annual, but "rattoonS" or
grows from the root the second year, after
which it must he permitted TO reseed
itself. 1t grows ten feet high, and
can be cut three times Year. The
leaves and stalk are very soft, and
the hay has rich, strong aroma like new
fond of it, and will refuse all other feed,
either grain or forage, for it. 1t grows
very thick, making an impenetrable shade.
1t should be cut just as it is budding or
blooming for seed, but should not lie too
long in the sun. Simply let it wilt and then
cure in the shade. 1t is also superior for
grazing and green soiling. 1t is called
beggar-iice," from the fact that it bears a
seed.pod covered with fuz that adheres to
any object with which it comes in contact,
but is in no other peculiar similar to our
old Middle Georgia beggar-lice," which
is only pest. 1t is primarily tropical
plant, and must be gradually acclimated in
high ATTITUDES. 1t can be sown at the last
ploughing Of corn, in the drill, one quart
OF seed to the acre-which is the best time,
even better than spring-and it is then
fully ready the following year. For turn
ing under as green manure there is nothing
superior.

A VERY Funny Joke.

An English farmer has recently been COM
pelled to pay the costs OF u practical joke.
He was sitting in the bar-room Of the Grey
hound Inn one night and taking his usual
tankard of ale, when his eye Glanced to fall
on the sleeping form Of a man with long
beard. He went to the fire, and, lighting a
piece CT paper, deliberately applied it to
the sleeping mans beard. There was 3
bright, rushing fame for second or two !;
the man sprang to his feet in agony the
Joke was complete, and the farmer roared in
ecstacy. The unfortunate sufferer, who hap
pened to be the village tailor, knew that
the farmer was man OF substantial
means, and acted accordingly. He brought
an action for $3.50 damages in the Malmes-
bury County Court in due course. Accord
ing to the plaintiffs evidence his beard was
eighteen inches long when he lay down,
after having some ale. The next thing ne
remembered was his face being. on hre'
while man helped to put out the flame.
The defendant sat In his seat. roaring Win
laughter, and did not offer any assistance,
nor did he tender any apology for what he
had done. His lips were burned severely,
his face was bIistered, his head, eyebrows,
and eyelashes were burned to the skin, and
one eve and one eur were scorched. The
magistrate awarded him $3.50 and costs.

tFrom tl,e I,oudon yvorld.I

One day last week a correspondent OF the
Times brought great discovery TO the no
tice OF that journal In the following letter
a." 1 Glanced luteIy to 60 into village-shop
where cotton goods are sold. On the coun-
ter lay large piece Of cotton-clOth or calico,
on which was stamped an eagle on rock,
occupying ten inches, with the words This
cloth was made in America ,; and second
piece, also American, with the name OF the
English firm as agent, both penny yard
cheaper than the English Of the same. or
rather inferior, quality"
Nothing more important has ever hap
pencd in the history of English trade than
the threatened displacement Of our cotton
manufactures by those OF America. YETI we
have Tor months looked 10 vain for word
in the "leading journals" on the subject.
Piece goods from the Lonsdale Mills OF New
York State arc now sold in every town In
Eng land at lower price and OF better qual-
ity than English goods OF nominally cor
responding grade. :
The fact is that the Americans are beating
us in our own tield-a fact which it may
take the political economists and city edi-
tors long time to digest, but which, I'M
fortunately, will soon be brought home TO
US all by the spectacle OF thousands OF work
ingmen thrown permanently out OF employ
ment, and the hopeless paralysis OF chief
source of our commercial prosperity.
We repeatedly told the public last year in
these columns that American manufactured
cotton could be bought better and cheaper
In London than the products OF the Lanc,.c
shire mills. It has taken the Times till
July, 1877, to find cut the same piece OF
news. How long will it take our contem,
porary to apprchend Its full meaning and
significance.

Damaged PtanOs---An Am usfng Case
i'm England.

DuA1t&S ~s~"~
i'm England.
In an English court Of justice recently an
action was brought against the Lancashire
and Yorkshire Railway Company to recover
compensation for damage doneto numb Der OF
pianos during their transit along the line OF
the company. The plaintiff, William Adams,
is a piano-forte dealer in Manchester, and
it has been his custom to send his pianos
to various towns, where they have been
offered for sale by auction. The plain
tiff, having given evidence ip support
of his case, was cross-exanlined by Mr..
pope, and admitted that he had filed n
petition for liquidation; whereat Mr.. Pope
stated to his lordship that the assets were
one piano, and the creditors did not so on
with the proceedings. [Laughter.] Ad-
dressing the witness, DIR. Pope then asked {:
"Have you ever heard of the institution
known as the Long Firm ?'' Laughter
Witness Indignantly: Oh, yes. Mr.. Pope:
Oh, you have, have you? Then who is the
William Adams Witness: I am. Mr..
Pope: Who are William Adams & Sons !?
Witness I am. [Laughter.l Mr.. Pope:
Who are William Adams & Co.. WITH ess:
am. [Laughter.l Mr.. Pope: They are one
and the same, and you seem Indifferent as to
which firm you belong or sign for. Laugh
teri Witness Oh, yes. as far as these three
60. [Laughter.l Mr.. Pope: Who are the
City OF London Piano Company? Witness:
am. [Laughter.l Mr. Pope: Who are Adams,
Sterndale Il Co.? Witness: Three Of my
sons. lLaughter.] Mr.. Pope: Who are
Sterndale Adams & Co. a.? Witness Thomas
Sterndale Adams. Mr.. Pope: Then, who
are Adams, Douglas s. Adams? Witness:
I have nothing to do with that. Mr.. Pope:
Who are they, sir? Witness: / do not see
that ought to answer that question. Mr..
Pope: Oh, yes, you ought. Who are they !?
Witness: They are my sons. Mr.. Pope:
Are Adams, Douglas & Adams agents for
Noting & Normanton's royal model trans
posing pianos, and Sterndale Adams &
Co. for The Anglo-American piano? Wit
ness Yes; Adams, Sterndale & Co.
are now done away with. Mr.. Pope:
Why? Witness: Thomas Sterndale Adams
is my son, and il my sons like to alter
the title OF their firm don't see what you
have to do with it. Dir. Pope: 1t is very
convenient, though, to have number OF
names on which to ring the changes.
ILaughter.l Ii this is your son, who are
Adams, Douglas j. Adams? Witness:
NV sons. [Laughter.] Mr.. Pope: The
same sons? lLaughter.] Witness: One is
Douglas Adams. There are three sons, but
they have not the same place Of business.
Mr.. Pope Qaushing): On, no; that would
be very clumsy. [Laughter.l But who are
Adams, Douglas & Adams, Hopwood Cham
bers, Market Place, Manchester; cash adj
yanced on the deposit Of goods, and agents
for these pianos? Witness: Douglas

WHAT BECAME OF THE FAMOUS BIG GCN-7
MONUMENT AT TRENTON.

The "Swamp Angel" at the close Of the
war was purchased, with a number Of other
condemned cannon, by the late Charles Carr,
founder, OF Trenton, n. j. 1t lay at his
foundry several years, he being 10th to melt
such historical relic, and at last he united
with number OF public-spirited citizens
and took means for the preservation OF the
huge field-riece. A pedestal nearly twenty
feet high was erected at the junction OF
Clinton and Perry streets, just beyond
the normal-school buildings, and the cam
non was hoisted to its position on the sum-
NIT. Six lamps are placed beside it and a
drinking-fountain is beneath. The follow
ing is an exact copy Of the inscription cut
in the brownstone. AS will be observed,
it is guiltless of single punctuation-mark:
"THE SWAMP ANGEL-The first gun an
eight inch Parrot rifle or 200 FOUNDER fired

"Bob Howland's HOTEL" at Meadow Lake
I" Bob had no sooner put up his sign than
his old mining and prospecting acquaint-
ances fiocked to his standard. They could
hardly believe their eyes when they, saw
Bob's name on the sign. 1t seemed almost
too good thing. In they marched by twos
and tours, and, throwing their blankets and
other traps into corner, advanced with q
" Hello, Bob! you internal old thief! II
amt glad to see you may l be blowed
They then proceeded to make themselves at
home, never missing meal, and never pay
ing cent. The butcher finally shut down
on meat for Bob's clearinghouse, the milk
man shut down on milk, and the baker on
bread, Bob explained the matter to his
dodgers, who to man swore they would
not desert him. They would whip the
butcher, the milkman, the baker, or any
other man Bob wanted whipped, and If no
more meat, milk, or bread could be had,
they would worry along on boiled cabbage
and potatoes, or any other cheap stuff that
could be had.'
