FROM THE M~UsCLEsHELL.

EDITOR HUSBANDMAN:
Perry Moore and r. H. Clendening start
for Carroll tomorrow to meet the first boat.
Gaugler & Clendenning's teams will start
in a few days, taking down a load of hides.
furs, etc, and will bring back supplies
for the year. Moore goes down to meet
and bring up his brother-in-law and family,
who, after paying a visit to friends in Deep
creek, will probably settle in this valley. A
telegram received from Col. Clendenning
states that the steamer Big Horn was to
leave Bismarck April 18th and will reach
Carroll about the Oath and Benton the 10Th,
which is earlier than boats have ever ar
rived at the head of navigation before. The
prospects are not very bright tor good roads,
as it has been showing for the last two
days, off and on, but | think it is a better
route than any other in the Territory, TAX
it through the whole season. Xxx.

4 WE take pleasure this week in calling at
tentlon to the season advertisement OF the
fine horses of Willowburn ranch. Mr..
MEauldin was the first to introduce a pure
Percheron-Norman horse in Montana, and
bred him to California mares. The result is
beyond the expectations of many, as is
proven by the large demand for the young
halt-breeds. The increasing demand for
stallion service has induced him to add
Vidal" a large imported stallion to his
already we'll selected band. This horse
was imported from France last year by
Nj. w. Durham, of Illinois. He is a beau
tiful turned horse, with fine action, lofty
carriage, powerful swelling loins, deep
chest, clean cut head, and of a dark dapple
gray color. Louis Philippe is now pretty
well known, and needs no special mention.
tie is just in the prime Of life and grows
more beautiful every day. 1t is a settled
fact that crossing the Percheron-Norman
with the common mare of our country
brings colts which, when grown, are large,
hardy we'll formed and serviceable horses.
Farmers who want horses for general use.
WIFI do well to call upon Mr.. Mauldin, at the
Wla'owburn ranch, fourteen miles from Sal
isbary, upon the Jefferson valley. Those
who have never seen a Percheron-Norman
horse will be we'll paid by a visit, while
those who would buy young Percheron-
Norman horses or breed to Louis Philippe,
Vidal, Mingo or Rob Roy, will find the
proprietor a fair and honorable person to
deal with. The season rates of the fine
stations are exceedingly low, when it is ia
ken into consideration hat they are the on
ly full bloods of this breed now in Montana,
and that the demand for their service is
enormously large.

quarts have been found at the head and

"Along the Danube" by Edward King is

are spirited and lively. Edward Il. Knight

comparisons between Paris and Philadel.

The city of Cambridge, Ohio, was sur
prised by the appearance of William J.
Raines, after an absence of nine years. He
lived in Henrysburg, Belmont county, and
had wife and child. He left them in 1869
to work in the East. Shortly after arriv-
ing there his uncle employed him on nine
months cruise to Calcutta. He sent his
wife 5000 and informed her of this fact
She had one other letter from him. In mid
ocean the vessel was wrecked off the coast
of Africa, and he, his uncle, and four other
men landed, but were captured by canni-
balls. They were marched 600 miles to the
interior and each of the tribes kept one as
a curiosity. He was divested of clothing
when on exhibition, and visitors travelled
hundreds of miles to see him. He was kept
by the Kings authority, and was the pet OF
the tribe. One year ago he escaped, and
found his way to Cape Town, and reached
San Francisco three weeks ago. His wife's
marriage three years after his absence was
sad news to him. He proposes to leave the
question to her with whom she will live.
He loves his wife and child.
West-Jersey pioneer., 1878-07-18

What is called a spiritual marriage has
just taken place in Boston. Perkins
Carleton; no cards. The bridegroom, who
is a widower and the contestant in the Har-
dy-Perkins will case, never heard of his
recently annexed bride until two weeks ago,
when he was informed by medium that
the spirit of his deceased wife would COM
municate with him through Miss Carleton,
who was about to engage in the practice of
her professionalism of healing medium
Mr.. Perkins Immediately sought out this
lady, who thereupon went into trance for
his benefit, and communicated to his aston
ished ear matters presumably known only
to himself and the late Mrs. Perkins. The
spirit of his late wife also directed him to
invite Miss Carleton to dine with him,
which he did, and after dinner she went
into trance, in the course of which his
deceased wife, speaking by the mouth of
the medium, expressed desire that he
should marry Miss Carleton, as by so doing
they would be able to work out certain
purpose which she (the shade) had in view.
The late Mrs. Perkins was wiser than the
children of the flesh for she remarked:
"The worlds people will think you insane;
but never falter; we will protect YOU"
The shadowy protector was even so oblig-
ing as to name the day.

Henry Green, crazy Englishman, who
recently committed suicide in Leavenworth,
Kan, had disordered fancy. One night
he determined to attend his own funeral.
He hired hearse, a coffin and several
mourning carriages, and proceeded to have
funeral all by himself. He placed the cof.
fin inside the hearse, got into the coffin with
bottle of whiskey, and the solem process
sion took its course through the principal
streets of the city. 1t was a queer time
for snowy funeral, but it was not until
the procession had appeared in the same
thoroughfares several times that the suspi.
cions of the community were aroused.
When the hearse was opened, the corpse
was found sitting upon its coffin and declar-
ing that it wouldn't 60 home till morning.

sumption has been made by men well known
to you by reputation, that everybody on
earth is dishonest but themselves, and they
are the great reforming classes that we find
in the nation. Fellow citizens, in the time
of our Saviour He found among the twelve
one Judas. That was 1,S00 years ago. and
the world has gone on improving in the
meantime. The proportion is less to-day
than it was 1,S00 years ago. [Applause.
The world is better this decade than it was
the last. 1t was better in the year 1900
than it was in the year 100. 1t has gone
on improving, from generation to genera
ton, and | trust to God it will go on improv-
ing. And when we find a man that dis
trusts every other man, and says: 81 am
holier than thou; anu the only honest man
to be found in this generation; l am going
to reform all political parties,' we need to
hold our pockets. Laughter and applause.
