which has prevailed among plantation owners, and

in its effects, not only for the laborer, whom it COM
pletely demoralizes, but for the employer as well.
The bill to regulate the currency was referred TO the
Finance Committee.

WE LEARN that the Hon. Mr.. Carter. our Envoy
to the Courts of Europe. may be expected to ar
rive home on the June steamer. We are not at
present advised as to the diplomatic results Of this
mission, but feel confident that the upbuilding OF
our good name abroad could not have been en-
trusted to better hands. In view Of the large and
growing interests of the German element in these
islands-fast taking rank with the American and
English-we deem it a fortunate circumstance that
Hawaii has been so ably represented at the Court
of the Emperor. We understand that Mr.. I. w.
Damon, Secretary Of the Hawaiian Legation at
Berlin, will remain for ONE time longer in Eu-
rope. for the purpose OF attending a course in one
of the German Universities. 4 letter from this
gentleman in tO-day's supplement. will be read

The new Pope's singularly studi-
Gus and abstemious habits are par
ticulary note worthy. He is n very
hard worker, rising at day and
saying mass as soon as ready. He
then, at his desk, works with intense
diligence until noon. shortly after
which he takes the only meal OF the
day. Papal simplicity is fast becom-
ing a proverb. If Plus TX was SIM
pie in his habits and in his food, Leo
MI is not one jot less simple. The
Holy Father retires at ten. In his
youth, as is known, he was devoted
to poetry, and is said to know Dante
by heart.
The Chinese Government has ord
cred a subscription to be taken
throughout the Empire, for the bene-
fit Of the sufferers by the famine.
The culture Of the poppy has also
been forbidden in Shansi and other
provinces. The Rev. Timothy Rich
ard, an English Baptist Missionary,
stationed at the capital OF Shansi, re-
ports that during winter journey
through the province, he saw "for
some miles large number of trees
on both sides Of the road, as far as
the eye could see on a level country,
stripped Of their bark to height OF
five. ten. and twenty feet, for food"
Dead bodies were here and there ly-
ing upon the roadside.

the meadows, many Of which, especi
ally the "clay farms" have not been
seeded for twenty years, and yet
yield fair amount of hay. Some OF
the meadows belonging to Marshall
Smith. OF Bridgeport, one Of the richest
men in the county, and the owner of
500 acres, have never been broken
up, and others have not been "sown
to grass" for over forty years, but
produce abundantly. The hay press
ing and shipping business is also
growing, and Fields & Booth, of YER
gennes, have disposed of over 1900
tons during the past year in this way,
at a cost OF from so to $l2 a ton.
A farmer of Stark county. Ohio, re-
ports some interesting experiments
with sowed fodder corn. He believes
that one acre OF fodder corn will pro-
duce as much and as good cattle food
as three to four acres of hay. In the
experiments reported, the yield was
five tons of dried fodder per acre.
The seed, the common corn, was
sowed the first week in June, at the
rate Of two bushels per acre. There
was no cultivation, and the stalks
were cut when the lower joints turned
bright yellow color. or about Sept.
For this a self-rake reaping machine
was used, and the stalks were bound
into sheaves and allowed to stand
about ten days, when they were
bound in smaller bundles and
shocked. The fodder cannot be
housed, but is allowed to stand in the
field until used. 1t Is argued that
this crop will succeed where hay will
not, aud that as forage crop it has
no superior.

There is nothing on earth worthy
Of being compared for a moment
with love. No other thing that can
give, by itself unallowed Happiness.
A loveless life is worthless, though
passed in luxury and crowned with
the proudest laurels Of successful
ambition. A life well set about with
with love, is blessed. haunted by
that relentless fate which seems to
deny to some men and women what
the world calls success. To have
been without parents love in child
hood, without the love OF brothers
and sisters; to have passed youth
without that more romantic love
which makes heaven OF earth, and to
live on in maturity, neither feeling
nor inspiring that strong, enduring
love which makes any sacrifice easy,
any love pleasant, any burden light,
so that it benefits the well-beloved,
is to be poor indeed, so poor that
even the plying angels have no
aims to give that can do any good.
And yet. how many know nothing OF
love, or only understand the word in
its coarseness, so that one bushes to
have uttered it in such presence.
How many, more pure than these,
sneer at it as delusion and absurdi-
ty, not understanding that pure love
is not OF the senses, but OF the soul;
not flame, Pickering and flashing
ever the passionate time Of life, but
soft, steady, glow, lighting it from
the cradle to the grave, and, one may
even hope, burning on beyond it,
since God is love, and we are his
image.

Like as the damask rose you see,

Or like a dainty flower IN May,
Or ike the morning TO the day,
Or hike the sun, or like the shade,
OR ike the gourd, which Jonas had;
Even such is man, whose thread is spun
Drawn out and ont, and so Is done,
The rose withers, the blossom blasteth,
The flower fades, the morning hasteih,
The sun sets. the shadow flies,
The Gourd consumes, the man-he dies.
Like to the grass that's newly sprung,
OR like tale that's Just begun,
Or like the bird that's here to-day,
CDR like the pearled dew in May,
Or like az hour, or like span,
Or like the singing of q swan,
Even such is man, who lives by breath,
Is here, now there, In life and death,
The grass withers, the tale is ended,
The bird is flown, the dew's assembled,
The hour If short, the span not long,
The swans near death, mans life is done.
Like to the bubble in the brook.
OR in n glass much like a look,
OR like the shuttle in weaver's hand,
Or like the writing on the sand,
Or like thought, or like dream,

Even such Is man, who lives by breath,

The thought IL past, the dream is gone,
The waters glide, mans life is done.

New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1878-08-21

Last Sunday afternoon, in company
with the Herald editor, we took a stroll
over to the beautiful hills on the other
side of the Minnesota river where we
could obtain 9 good view Of our city.
After spending a short time at a rustic
table put up for picnic purposes, we
proceeded to the residence Of Mr.. Hen
ry Mueller where, after haying been
kindly entertained with refreshments,
we were shown around the large and
neat orchard. The latter contains a.
bout three hundred apple trees of diff
ferent kinds, a large portion of which
are bearing. Besides large number
and variety of crab-apples there were
many large-siZed ones OF different spe-
cies, some Of which were as large and
fine as any of those usually kept for
sale at our stores.
That apples and many other kinds Of
fruit can be successfully raised in this
part of the State, is amply proved by
the few fine orchards found among some
Of the farmers in this vicinity, and for
this reason we think more attention
ought to be given to fruit raising, es-
pecially by those who have their farms
so situated that the timber will shelter
their orchards from severe storms.
