- The New York HerdhPs correspon-
dent at Vienna gives some interesting
details concerning the reception accorded
Gen. Grant in that city last week. He
arrived there on Sunday night, August
IS. At the railroad station he was met
by Minister Kasson, the secretaries and
members of the American legation, and
large number of the American resi-
dents. He was loudly checrcd as he
stepped out of the railway carriage. On
the 10Th the General was visited at the
legation of the United States by Coun
Andrassy, the first minister of the Coun-
Gil, and several colleagues. In the eve
ming he dined with the Countess and Mrs.
Grant at Posts. On the Goth he had an
audience of his Imperial Majesty, Fran
els Joseph, at the lovely palace Of Scho-
enbrum, spending the remainder of the
day driving apout the imperial grounds
and forests and visiting points of inter-
est. On the 21st General and Mrs. Grant
were entertained by the imperial family
and dined with the Emperor in the eve
ming. On the 22d Minister Kasson gave
q diplomotic dinner in honor of the ex-
President, at which nearly all the foreign
ambassadors we're present. The Gener-
al leaves Monday next for Steirmart.

planters fear that it will all be forced

opening very rapidly and is being sent to
market and sold as fast as it can be
ginned and packed. The indications are
that the business season will open very
early in the South, and that a Legitimate

We take this early opportunity to sug-
igest to Senator John ]. Patterson that
he need no longer have any fears about
the requisition from South Carolina. All
that is necessary for him to do to be safe
in the future from molestation is simply
toremoye his residence from: Pennsylva-
MIA to Massachusetts,. Massachusetts has
tender love for honest ~ men of his
stamp, and would never consent to turn
them over to other States to be harassed
by confinement in some unpleasant PEN
.itentiary, simply for buying a seat in
the United States Senate, and helping to
gobbls up q little triae of one or two
railroads and such like commendable "
transactions.

The action Of Attorney General Train,
in deciding that South Carolina wants
Kimpton for some other purpose than to
try him, is an insult which he was no
doubt pleased to have the opportunity of
giving, but it will not reflect credit on
him with the thinking portion of the
people of the United States. Kimpton
is charged with crime, and if surren-
dered he would have been tried, or he
could have had the charge dismissed.
If it had been deemed best to make q
States witness ont Of him, the State had
the right to do so, and the officers of
Massachusetts, have no right to say such
should not be done. The trial of ofKimpton
was the seYerest treatment he could have

SENATOR PATTERsoN.-TheW Washing
ton Post baving announced that Senator
Patterson, of South Carolina, was seeking
to avoid arrest on requisition alleged to
have been issued by Gov. Hampton, of
South Carolina, press representative
interviewed him in Harrisburg, Pennsyl-
vania, August 9th, relative to the state
ment. The Senator did not seem to have
the least fear of being hurried to South
Carolina. He denied the truthfulness of
the reports that he was trying to flee
from justice; he did not believe that
Hampton had issued a requisition, and
talked as if he did not anticipate any.
A similar report had been circulated sew
eral weeks ago, and out of curiosity one
of his friends had communicated with
the authorities at Columbia with view
of ascertaining the truthfulness of the
statement published. To this e. reply
was received that nothing was known of
such action.
Patterson laughed at the statement in
the Washington Post that he had made
a proposition to resign his seat in the
United States Senate provided he we're
granted immunity from arrest. He
strongly intinated that if he had any
idea of making this sacrifice he would
have abdicated in favor of a Democrat
when it would have been advantageous
to that party, referring to the struggle
over the admission of Senators Butler, of
South Carolina, and Kellogg, of Louisi-
ana. The reason he gave for remaining
in the North was that his health, which
had been very much impaired, did not
justify him in going to hot climate,
such as prevailed in South Carolina He
predicted solid Democratic Congress
sional delegation from South Carolina,
and freely admitted that he had no inhu-
ence with Mr.. Hayes.

THE TERRIBLE sCoURGE.

In the Southwestern States, the vista
ton of yellow fever is proving the most
terrible scourge which has afflicted any
portion of our country within the memo
ry of the present generation, at least.
Cities, towns and villages are quickly
depopulated; where only few days
since peace and plenty reigned, desola-
ton is written all over communities
Sickness and death have taken possession
of smiling homes and busy marta of
trade; the dreadful scourge engrosses
the time, the thought and the attention
of every one within reach of the infected
places. Amid all this woe and anguish,
it is creditable to the humanity of the
American people that generous relief has
been promptly forwarded. Physicians,
nurses and needed supplies have been
sent in profusion; money has flowed
withc1t stint from almost every quarter,
and there is an anxiety pervading the
public mind to learn from day to day of
some abatement of the fearful disease.
But the grim monster pursues his death
dealing mission; hundreds of victims are
added daily to the hundreds and thou
sands already stricken down, and the end
is not yet. In all human probability,
the fever-insected localities are to under
go the scourge for sixty days to come.
Can our people realize the extent of the
devastation p Is the, suffering, the an
guish and the deprivation of our fellow
creatures in tho Southwest yividly real
lied BY the people of Anderson? The
contribution of few has been sent TO
the sufferers already. But is this onr
whole duty, uider the circumstances?
Blessed in health and store rs are the in
habitsnts of this region, can we not do
more than to send mere pittance for
their relief? Anderson County has be-
come distinguished for meritorious works
in various directions. 1t has been sig
nally favored in many respects, and
prosperous fields are now whitening with
fruitful harvests. A general movement
for the amelioration of distress and sue
cor to the prostrated section would still
further exemplify the patriotism, devo.
ton to duty and noble character Of our
people. Who SO competent to lead in
this worthy endeavor as the ministers of
the gospel-the heralds of Christ, their
great exemplar, who went about doing
good, and was touched with the infrmi-
ties Of our nature? IF all the ministers
of every denomination would unite in a
systematic plan for securing contribu-
tions to the relief of the yellow fever
sufferers, the result would be highly
gratifying, and thousands of perishing
mortals would derive benefit from the
labors so abundantly rewarded. The
suggestion for concert of action among
the ministry, it seems to us, deserves
their prompt consideration.

received, and if the State was willing to
dismiss him with punishment less
severe, it would certainly not have hurt
Kimpton, and Massachusetts should not
have objected. The action of Mr.. Train
and Gov. Rice is far from creditable to
their intelligence or their integrity Of
purpose.

intention to try them upon The indict-
ment. 1t does appear that for many
months negotiations have been going on
between the authorities of South Caro-
lima and this respondent, under which he
was offered immunity if he would return
to that State and volunteer as witness
in her courts, and that this offer was re-
newed after his arrest here.
Upon all the evidence / am of the
opinion that the indictment when found
was for an ulterior purpose which does
not appear, and not for the purpose of
trying him for any supposed crime
against the laws of that State. I there
fore advise your Excellency that it is not
expedient to comply with the request.
Very respectfully, your obedient SER
want, CHAs. R. TRAIN.
BosToN, August 30.
The requisition of the Governor of
South Carolina upon the Governor of
Massachusetts,, for the surrender of
Hiram II. Kimpton, has been refused by
Governor Rice. The Attorney General
submitted his opinion on the case to the
Governor on Thursday. In the opinion
he cited numerous facts and precedents
showing the action taken in similar
cases, and where the discretion Of the
Executive had been exercised and the
warrant for the surrender of the alleged
fugitive refused. In the present instance
the surrender is denied on the ground
that the State of South Carolina, in pro-
curing the indictment of Kimpton, had
purpose different from that of bringing
him to trial. This is altogether new
ground, and was not taken by Kimpton's
counsel in their argument.
SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Aug. 80.
On the receipt of the telegram from
Boston stating that the Governor would
refuse to surrender Kimpton, the latter
was discharged by the Police Court of
this city, by which he had been held on
a merely nominal charge. He is now at
liberty.

Strengthening up Trees.

In August and September, trees be.
gin to harden their wood, aud as the
twig is then bent the tree will be in
clined. A tree viii usually arrange
its foliage symmetrically, the shoots
that are laggard this year receiving
the most impetus next year, and so
filling up vacancies and Irregularities.
But a stem orce hardened in deformi-
ty cannot recover without aid. Only
q stake sitter than itself, so applied
as to press against the convexity of
the bend, while the cleaning off" por-
ton is drawn toward the stake and
tied close mp TO il, will remedy the dis
fgurement. 1t is surprising how few
OF those who attempt to straighten a
tree-sIem by stake apply the stake SO
as TO effect their object.
Set il on the side from which the
stem leans, and close to the stem. Set
1t now, just before the wood harde..s.
Tie II at the bottom, top and middle,
80 that tho tree stem will be straight
as the straight stake, and so that the
wind may not displaceit, Add brace
ii necessary, to hold the stem erect
after the stake has made IT straight
(by October the stake may be dispens-
cd with), aud if you have got a per-
pendicular eye in your level head il
will be continual pleasure to look
ever thereafter at that erect support
Of the head of foliage. On the other
hand crooked stems are, as long as
they stand, not only vexatious eye
sores Enthusiastically, but monu-
ments of neglect or Of want of knowl-
edge on the part CT the owner.

The swallow, swift and nighthawk

The swallow, swift and nighthawk
are the guardians of the atmosphere.
They check the increase of insects
that otherwise would overload it.
Woodpeckers, creepers and chicadees
are the guardians of the trunks of
trees. Warblers aud hycatchers pro-
tect the foliage. Biackbirds, crows,
thrushes and larks protect the surface
of the soil. Snipe and woodcock pro-
tect the soil under the surface. Each
tribe has its respective duties to per-
form in the economy of nature, and it
is an doubted fact that il birds were
all swept OF the face of the earth man
could not live upon it, vegetation
would wither and die, insects would
become SO numerous that no living
being could Withstand their attacks.
The wholesale destruction occasioned
by grasshoppers which have devasta.
ted the west, is 10 great extent, per-
haps, caused by the thinning out of
the birds, such as grouse, prairie hens,
etc., which feed upon them. The great
and inestimable service done to the
farmer, gardener and florist is only be-
Ing known by sad experience. Spare
the birds and save the fruit; the little
corn and fruit taken by them is more
than communicated Inv tho cuap+;f;as NJ
noxious insects they destroy. The
long-persecuted crow has been found
by actual experience, to do more good
by quantities of grubs aud insects he
devours, than the harm he does in all
the grains of corn he pulls up. He,
after all, is rather friend than an en-
envy to the farmer.-St. Johns IN. b.

One day this spring, Mr.. Edward
Gleason, of Saxonville, while in his
potatoc Geld looking at the ravages of
Q ncwly-arrived pest, discovered an
insect in the act OF destroying the egg
Of the Colorado potato-bug. This
was the "lady-bug," SO called; an oval
shining, mahogany-colored little fell
low with black spots; an insect con-
sidcrably resembling miniature spot
ted turtle. This little creature is de-
stroyer of the aphis, commonly called
plant-louse or green-fly, although the
latter is a inisnomer, as the males only
are winged. Wherever In outdoor
culture the.-aphidcs are found, there,
In contact with them, will also be
found ants T; not destroying or even
disturbing the lice, but sucking a
sweet substance cxuding from their
bodies. The aphis has been aptly
termed .'the mich COW of the ant" 1t
seems, from the discovery of Mr..
Gleason,that the lady-bug has double
claim on our protection. Unfortunate
ly they are often destroyed by those
ignorant Of their value.-Sc,entifc

Bow Woman Srlits VOID.

johnson was notified by his better
half the other day that the wood pile
had been reduced TO one chunk, but he
caught the panic down town and fail
ed to send up replenishing load.
just before noon Mrs. johnson hunt
cd up the AK and went for the lone
chunk. She knew that woman could
split wood as good as a man she had
read and heard about woman's awk-
wardness, but she knew that twas all
nonsense.
She spit on her hands an raised the
AK over her left shoulder right hand
lowest down on the handle. She made
a terrible blow, and the AK went into
the ground, and she fell over the
chunk. She got up, Ii oked all around
to see if anybody was watching, rub
bed her elbows, a, d then took up the
AK the other way.
She meant 10 strike the stroke plump
center, but she forgot the clothcs-liue
above her head, and the ak caught il,
jerked up and down and Mrs. Johnson
went over the ash-heap. She rose up
with less confidence in her eye and the
boys in the alley heard one say, "Darn
il to Texas" but of course it wasn't
Mrs. johnson. She might have moved
the stick little but she didn't. She
went 10 take down the clo,hes-line /;
then she coilcd il mp and hung it in the
shed then came back and surveyed
the chunk, and turned it over and
walked around it.
The clothos-line was to blame, aud
now there was nothing TO interfere:
She got the Ak, raised it once or twice
and then gave an awful blow. 1t chip
ped off silver and was buried in the
ground, and the knob ON the handle
knocked the breath cut of her. She
gasped and couehcd and jumped up
and down, ana tie boys heard some
one say, "lf had that man here. I'd
mop the ground with him, would"
After pinning mp the tear in her
dress. and getting n piece of court
plaster for her nose, she went and bor-
rowtd some wood, and hearing, while
OIL her way home, that Mrs. Pringle
was going TO wear her last years cloak
through another winter, the good wo-
man concluded to let johnson off en-
tirely, and tell him she hurt her nose
falling down the cellar.
