all the bones that lie wasting on our road
sides, about our slaughter-houses and meat
markets, and where the dead horses and
other animals lie buried that ought to have
been composted. We must learn, if we do
not already know what our New York
brethren have been preaching these many
years, how to grow big grain crops in rota-
ton with clover. We must see the truth in
the saying that tillage is manure We
must stop growing weeds. We must use
the best implements aud save so much hand
labor. We must improve our stock to the
highest pitch of excellence, and we can then
afford to feed high and make more manure
In short, instead of buying Stockbridge, we
must learn our trade more perfectly, so that
we can do without it. That's the way to
pay off the mortgage.

The Last Picture Of Lincoln.

Mr.. Noah Brooks, an intimate friend
of Lincoln, writes as follows in the
Midwinter" .Scribner about the last
photograph of the President, drawing
of which by Wyatt Eaton has been en-
graved by Cole as frontispiece to the
same number of the magazine
One Saturday night, the President
asked me if I had any objection to ac-
company him to photographers on
Sunday. He said that it was impossible
for him TO go on any other day, and he
would like to have me see him "set."
Next day, we went together, and as he
was leaving the house he stopped and
said, "Hold on, / have forgotten Eve
rett % Stepping hastily back, he brought
with him folded paper, which he ex-
planned was printed copy of the Grafton
that Mr.. Everett was to deliver, liz few
days, at Gettysburg. 1t occupied nearly
the whole of two pages of the Bosto n
Journal, and looked very formidable in
deed. AS we walked away from the
house, Lincoln said, "It was very kind
in Mr. Everett to send me this. L sup
thing that he wanted to say. He needn't
have been alarmed. My speech isn't
long"
$50 it is written, is it, then2" I
asked.
"Well, no" was the reply. cit is
not exactly written. It is not finished,
anyway. have written it over, two or
three times, and shall have to give it
another lick before 1 am satisfied. But
it is short, short, short"
found, afterward, that the Gettys-
burg speech was actually written, and
rewritten a great many times. The
several drafts and interlineations OF
that famous address, if in existence,
would be an invaluable memento of its
great author. Lincoln took the copy of
Everett's Grafton with him to the photo
grapher's, thinking that he might have
time to look it over while waiting for the
operator But he chatted so constantly,
and asked so many questions about the
art OF photography, that he scarcely
opened it. The folded paper is seen
lying on the table, near the President,
in the picture which was made that day.
Sos&r as know, this was the last sime
Lincoln ever sat for his photograph.
Unfortunately, the negative plate was
broken after few impressions had been
printed from it, and, though Lincoln
promised to give the photographer
another sitting, he never found time.
The illustration which FORMS the fronts-
piece of this magazine is the first en-
craving which has ever been made FROM
the sun picture. Mr.. Wyatt Eaton has
reproduced with great fidelity and with
loving consciousness the sentiment
and the "details of this admirable like
hess.

The NcGarrahan Claim Renewed in
Congress.

From the time when the memory of
man runneth not to the contrary, says
a Washington correspondent, Billy Nc
Garrahan, the famous claimant to the
New Idyia quicksilver mine of Califor-
mia, has walked the streets of Washing
ton and haunted the Hobbies and ante
chambers of Government officials. He
is a genal-faced Irishman, who in his
long years of fighting has never lost his
eheerfuness or sanguine hope of get
ting q share of the millions that he al
leges have been swindled away from him.
The dispute involved is one OF title, and
has occupied lawyers and courts after the
interminAble fashion of AN English
chancery case. McGarrahan long ago
passed into the hands of the Jews. He
has been farmed out as a stock article,
and ambitious spectators have advanced
handsome sums upon McGarrahan's
shares, until McGarrahan has become
q regular quoted stock in private specu-
lative circles. Recently this stock had q
great tumble bv decision of the SUI
preme Court against McGarrahan's
claims. Every one thought that was the
last of McGarrahan, but he comes up
smiling after his knock down. and dis
closes another mode of attack upon the
New I9ria millions. This is flank
movement in Congress-. The matter
Turns up in the shape cd bill, intro
duced in the House by Representative by
Luttrell, of California, looking to a re-
adjudication of McGarrahan's claims
by Congressional declaration upon the
subject.
