waters, and our commerce on the
high seas. Agriculture builds
our cities, our towns, and sup
plies our institutions of learning.
1t furnishes material for our
manufactures, and our work
shops. 1t converts the forest into
beautiful habitations Of civiliz-
ed man, and brings the bound
less prairie into broad and pro-
ductive farms, yielding from her
treasures of fertility the golden
corn which supplies the hungry
of the older nations of the world.
It is our agriculture that has at
tracted the immigrant from Eu-
rope, that has populated our ma
tive wilds, and made them trib-
utary to our nations wealth and
greatness. Trade, commerce and
manufactures are its arteries,
which interchange and carry
from land to land, over sea and
mountain, converting and con-
Stunning as the wants of civilian
ton and the needs Of society de-
mand. All the various indus
tries of the world are in some
sense aiders and abettors of the
one great neutrality-suspicious.,
which has been and ever will be
the broad foundation Of national
wealth and greatness. 1t is the
creative power of that abund-
ance which gives wealth and
prosperity to the nation, and
rolls on the wheels of progress
towards a higher and a better
condition of man. 1t is the pur-
suit which the great designer of
all things commanded our first
parents to follow, and to that
our wealth and greatness, our
progress in the arts of civiliza-
ton, are due.
1t is progressive agriculture
that marks the onward march of
civilization, for all it's tendencies
are to elevate the better qualities
of human character when pur-
sued in the light of science, and
guided by correct understand
ing and appreciation Of the pos
sibilities in the great field of ma
ture. 1t is the cultured mind
and heart that constitutes true
civilization and elevates man
hood, and nowhere can these
qualities, 50 essential to our
good, be more fully developed
than in the study and practice
Of that pursuit which nature has
provided and made necessary for
man. Labor is necessary to HUI
man advancement, but it is that
labor which is directed by an
intelligent mind that leads to
national progress. 1t is a fitting
illustration of the Importance of
intelligent labor that we have
made greater advancement dur
ing the past century than any
other people before us; for none
have more combined intellect
with physical endeavor.

edge Of the platform holding the Banner
Of Redemption. As the Apostles approach
each turn and boz slowly to the Saviour
who blesses each. As Peter approaches,
Satan appears, and, by his motions,
seems to tempt Peter, who alone does not
bow, but turns his back in denial upon
his Lord, then the cock on the weight
tower flaps his wings and crows in memo
ry of Peters temptation Then Satan ap-
pears again. and with eager eyes watches

the balcony till the door closes upon him,
and the great bell, which has tolled one
for each Apostle. now gives the signal
that the procession ia over.
The Angel OF Death bows to Judas as
he passes, while the Angel OF Life starts
gazing at him in sorrow. Judas bows 10
the Saviour. and the Saviour returns the
salutation, thus proving his great love for
sintu! men. and his sorrow that they
should contemplate any unhOliness The
procession signifies The journey oflife; and

over the procession is to remind us that

The clock is wound up every day.
The weight acting rs motor to the me-
chanism weighs 500 pounds. The first
clock was constructed in the year 1852
by an unknown artist Tradition says
that his eyes were put out in order that
he might not make another clock for an
adjoining city. The people of Strasburg
wanted their clock to be the only one OF
the kind in the world The msker, after
having his eyes put ont, under the pre-
text OF regulating the clock, removed
some of the mechanism, cut the wires,
aud otherwise prevented the clock from
running The time-keeping portion was
siterward set IN motion and kept time for
over one hundred years.
The second clock was completed in
1874, and kept time until 1859 In 1888
the present clock was completed, and the
Apostles and Satan added. Previous TO
this the Apostles were not capable OF
bowling, and we're merely figures passing
in procession. 1t is said that the site Of
the Strasburg Cathedral was used ty the
| ancient CeIts a. n place for Worship
The first church was erected in the year
1910. and in excavating many statutes OIL
the Roman divinities were found. II
took 1862 years to complete the church
The tower is AGA feet high, il supplied
with turrets and winding stairs outside
the spire The front OF the cathedral i:
230 feet; the length 375 feet; the height
l20 feet In the interior it is 70 fec,
from the floor to the superior arch.
The cathedral has been the scene o.
much violence. In 1892 four hundred
statutes were pulled down. During the
Franco-Prussian war cannon-balls wer,
shot through the wit dovs, and the DELE
brated clock came very near being ruined
but escaped with slight damage There
is much more we would like to write in
regard to this historical and wonderful
piece OF mechanism. but will have to de-
fer it for the present

Some Of our State exchanges are
commenting pretty severely on the
action Of Mr.. f. II. Porter, of Bowling
Green. who was elected public printer
by the late Legislature, in selling his
contract with the State to Col. Major
of Frankfort. We think the structures
unwarranted. IMPORTER was chosen,
legally, and the compensation he would
have received for the work is precisely
the same any one else would have got
ten, hence the people are not hurt,
nor is any body else, save perhaps
Col. Major, who will have to stand

Presidential Title.

lFrOm Congressional Proceedings, June ISL
The report ofthe Investigating Com
mi,tee was up.
Mr.. Springer moved to suspend the
rules in order to extend privilege to
Mr.. Knott.
The motion was agreed to.
Mr.. Knott thereupon read the paper
the tenor Of which has been already
indicated.
Mr.. Knott holds that the great I'M
DERIVING question to be determined YVES
not the one which the committee
seemed to consider paramount to all
Others. 1t was not merely whether the
present incumbent of the Presidential
and Vice Presidential Offices should be
disturbed, but it had a wider range,
and reached an in6nitively profounder
depth. Ii was true it might incident
ally affect the title of couple of citi-
liens to the honors and elnoluments of
certain high and important offices
Az" .NioihCu " b"Sius Out u utSO lu-
volved the dignity and sovereignty of
thirty-eight independent and coequsl
States, as well as the rights and liberties
of 40, 900, 900 people. The conclusion
of the report is in these words: LET
the representatives of the people teach
the people by solemn resolution that
possession is better than right. and
usurpation stronger than law; that Re
turning Boards are supreme, and that
law is voiceless (: then indeed will the
people realize that Law has been alb
and that force has been en-
thrcned; and then will the country
indeed become Mexicanized. Force
will be resorted to to redress wrong as
well as sustain it, and recourse will be
had to the stern arbitrament of the bull
let; aud after usurpation shall have sue
ceeded usurpation, anarchy will come
ike night and seal the fate of this
great Republic forever"
