TRAGIC LOVE SToRIEs. What q place
Rome is for sad love stories. Here Is the
last. A young workman on railway
was about to get married. The very day
before that set apart for the wedding be
was run over by an engine and killed.
No sooner did the girl hear this than she
laid herself down across the tracks with
the hope of being killed in her turn. But
she had only an arm crushed. The arm
had to be amputated, and she bore the
operation like soldier. She told the
surgeons all the while that it was no uHe.
that she could not live now that her lover
was dead. They gave no heed to such
rawlings. When nobody was looking zhe
removed the bandages and bled to death

A REMINIscENcE OF WEBsTER's REPLY
TO HAYHE.,James Watson Webb writes
as follows to the New York Times. /
have Just read with pleasure your notice
of the late John Gales, so long the vet
eran of the press, and of his aceomp-
lished and estimable widow, recently de-
ceased. You mention the fact that Mr..
Gales reported Mr.. Webster's great
speech in reply to Hayne, In relation to
which the following incident, stated to
me by MFR. Webster and confirmed by
Mr.. Gales, may be of interest: I had
no IDEA, said Mr.. Webster, "of the great
importance which would be attached by
tae public to my reply to Mr.. Hayne,
and was not IN the habit, up to that
period, of making full notes, as at pres
ent. Consequently, when my friends,
with great unanimity, demanded the
publication of the speech, ] was quite
unable to CRAFTY them. I had observed,
however, that during the delivery of the
speech my friend Gales had taken notes
of it, and ] applied to him to know if he
could aid me. He expressed his regrets
that I had not made the application
sooner, and added that he did take full
notes of the speech, but it was in short
hand, and unfortunately he could not
decipher his own shorthand after an in
tsrval of a few days. OF course was
annoyed and felt that the speech was
lost, Just when the public, by their ap-
probation of it, had made me appreciate
it. Mr.. Gales perceived my annoyance,
and said, 1t has frequently occurred
that, when I could not decipher my
| shorthand notes, Mrs Gales could.
Give me your brief notes and I'll place
them with my full shorthand notes in
the hands of Mrs. Gales and see what she
can do for US. The result is my pub
ished speech IN reply to Mr.. Hayne,
which had not estimated very highly,
but which now consider one Of my best
efforts. Its preservation is due solely to

SToNEwALL JAoKsoN's DAUGHTER
When the jackson statue was unyailed in
Richmond some years ago, after the pro-
eession and oratory, Governor Kemper
brought forward upon the platform a
slender little girl, ana addressing the
great crowd of the old Confederate
soldiers, said: Comrades, let me pre-
sent to you the daughter Of Stonewall
jackson" Somehow the tears sprang to
every eye at the sight of this delicate
child of their restless leader. There was
no cheering, but every face showed a
deep emotion. Ever since that time o
tender and poetic interest has elung to
this little lady, and there are many
thousands who care to know of her well
being. She has recently arrived In Bal
timore under the care of her mother, who
never loses sight of her, and who brings
her to school They are at present stay
ing with Ms. Hugh Lee at 11s st. Paul
street. Miss Julia jackson is about SIX
teen years old, tall, slender and graceful.
She is q blonde, with fresh color and fair
hair. Her eyes are of exquisite clear
gray, large and expressive. Her man.
ners are gentle, but not shy or reserved.
There is not any marked resemblance to
her illustrious father, and she seems
hardly conscious of the distinction that
she enjoys, and the romantic interest that
she carries with her.

NORMAN HonsEs FOR FARM WoRK.-

would say in relation to the Normans, I
have kept them for the last fifteen years
with great success and find them to be
first-class work horses. As to their
standing hard work and hot weather I
can say that / never owned but one
horse-his breeding unknown-that
thought was as good as the Norman. I
may differ with some in what frst-class
work or farm horse should be. I want
them to weigh at least fourteen hundred
to fifteen hundred pounds each ON short
and well-shaped legs, to feed well and to
walk four miles per hour. Such teams
are found among the Normans more
easily than any of the breeds of horses
that know. In Illinois we have very
warm weather through corn tending and
harvesting. If horse can stand up to
hard work and thriyes, you can calculate
the hot weather does not hurt him. ]
have had a great many big days work
done with my Norman teams. In the
year 1868 I farmed 100 acres and used all
Norman mares to do my work. had
one team that planted twenty five and a
half acres of corn in one day, with two
men on the planter, and sold one of them
she same fall for 5000. She was jet black,
and the pair weighed about 5000 pounds.
The Normans are always ready for their
feed. Hard work don't take away their
oppetite, as it frequently does with many
horses if you give them hard days
work. As rule the Normans are kind
and gentle Horsemen well know that a
| nervous and high strung horse is not as
likely to stand hard work as those which
are mild in temper. The Normans are
essentially mild tempered, and it is rare
thing to find one with SPAWN or ring
| bone. They are very close jointed and
compactly built, making them less likely
to get blemished than if loosely built.
! As to their travelling I think they can GO
off ten or fifteen miles and back as quick
as our common farm teams; but If ]
wanted a team especially for the road ]
| should not take them or any other large
breed of horses, although have driven
Ia Norman further in two hours than ]
ever did any other horse Prairie

GENEROUS FEEDING PAYS Creamery
butter has gone to 30 cents per pound.
Cheese has jumped to 10L cents per
pound. The reason undoubtedly is the
continued draught, which has kept
pastures as bare and sere almost as In
winter. Good dairymen commenced
feeding in season, and thus kept their
their stock up to tolerable flow of milk,
what was lost in quantity being made up
quality That is, the grain fed made the
milk rich in the constituents that go to
to make up butter and cheese. Those
who have neglected to feed will suffer,
for, once cow shrinks in her milk from
lack of feed and water, it is impossible
thereafter to bring her back to full
flow. Those who have suffered most are
those who do not believe there is any
good in agricultural papers, and those
who read them specifically. The good
dairyman never allows his stock to suffer
even during the summer for want of
food. The stock-breeder who keeps pace
with improved agriculture never allows
his stock to cease growing from the time
it is fit for market until ready for the
butcher. The progressive farmer never
loses crop for want of feeding to the
soil. How to do all these in the most
economical manner is the problem that
each must solve for himself according to
the special requirements in the case.
There is one point in dairy-farming not
generally considered, and that is that the
farm should be getting richer every year.
The products are hay, grass and corn,
fed on the farm, and the products sold
are simply the condensed product in the
shape of butter and cheese, and the hogs
fed upon the buttermilk and whey
while the manure made may be applied
to the land to keep up its fertility. Thus
| when necessity requires, maximum crops
of grain may be raised at maximum
cost. Thus, although the dairyman may
think he is getting light profits land
that they have been light for the last
last two years is acknowledged every
thing now points to good prices the COM
ing winter. 1t is true, only those will
reap the benefit of this who keep well
posted as to the ways and means, through
the reading of carefully edited agricul-
tural papers. and their own correct
Judgment founded thereon. It must, OF
course, be satisfactory to those who have
not done this that have nobody to blame

The Raias Of IN, TuIleries.

1t Seems impossible to dispel the idea
that the stability Of French forms of Gov
ernment may be promoted by rechristen-
ing streets or buildings, opening or clos
ing thoronghfares through palace gar
dens and razing or preserving roval resi-
dences. The Paris municipality is now
busy in abolishing all names calling up
monarehiai "reminiscences. A public
road made two years ago alongside the
Tuileries was exulted over as an ad-
ditional impediment to the revival OF
royalty, and the razing of the Tuileries
was discussed by the Chamber as though
the permanency or instability of the Re
public were at stake. Some of the
speakers, indeed, adduced aesthetic or
financial arguments, but it was easy to
see that political considerations were up
permost in their minds, for in no other
way can the fact be accounted for that
the Conservatives were ranged on one
side and the E.epublicars on the other.
A foreigner might have supposed that
the restoration or the destruction of the
Tuileries was as grave matter as that of
the rebuilding of Jerusalem after the
captivity, symbolizing, If not religion

CITY AFFAIRS,

The final disposition Of the ordinance or or
dinances relative to city affairs will be dis
cussed and determined by the Convention to-
day On general principles we think that the
Convention, Id this matter, should do nothing
more than empower the Legislature to frame
a charter for the city. and authorize q syndi-
cate to take charge OF and adjust the city
debt This would be, wise, especially since
the determination Of the important matters
relating To the city have been deferred to the
closing day OF the Convention, when 1t is en-
tirely too late to give them that consideration
which they demand
simple article In the constitution, author
ising the Legislature to do these things. Is al
that ID necessary. There are grave differences
Of opinion az to the advantages Of the several
systems OF city government, and these diff
ferences have not been publicly discussed be-
fore the people. ii they have been dis
cussed at all, 1t has been In COM
mittee. and the people Of New Orleans have
not been heard by the Convention az they
ought to be, II the city is to be put In q con
stitltional straIght-jacket, from which, under
no circumstances, 1t can be released, except
through amendments to the constitution,
The form Of the city government ought to be
left to the Legislature, SO that 1t may be
changed VI its errors and defects easily and
speedily remedied.
The limitation OF city taxation to ten mills
IL another mistake which the Convention
should correct before it adiourns Whatever
may be said as to the power Of the bondhold-
ers to reach the State through the courts,
| there liz little question as to their power to
| reach the city. Ii. therefore, the ten mills
shall not be sufficient to pay the interest on
the city debt, as adiustedb the syndicate, and
also the running expenses Of the city, the bond
holders will sue the city, obtain Judgment
and gobble their full interest out of the ten
mills. The consequence will be that the otff-
cials and employees Of the city will 60 with
out their pay, and the people without neces-
| sary protection OF life and property. of
course, the employees and people will be the
| first and chief sufferers, and hundreds of men
Id such an event-a very probable one-will
be left without employment. Thus It will
be seen that this limitation cannot
protect the city as limitation may
/ protect the State, and Its only
effect will be to embarrass the city, iniure Its
employees and deprive the people Of the adj
vantages Of police, light, public improve
ments and all those essentials III d great mu-
nicipality, to the protection and enjoyment Of
life and property. The holders of city bonds
will be In no respect affected by 1t.
| We have not time now to discuss at length
the impolicy of thus tying UP the affairs OF
| the city In the constitution, but we throw out
these hurried suggestions that the Conven-
tion may see one or two Of the effects of such
course and reflect before they proceed fur
] ther with 1t.
