D. WYATT AIKEN.
P. 8. I AM almost convinced, that if the Early
Amber cane were planted in March it would ripen
with favorable seasons early in July, and with
ordinary seasons the stubble would produce a
second crop as heavy, if not heavier than the
first. l took 100 gallons of syrup off an acre of
Early Amber cane in 1878, and upon frost foil
the second crop had matured, but I allowed it
to die on the land to prevent taxing that acre TOO
severely, and those seed were planted late in
April. D. W. A.

Richard Owing's Account of the Mar
row Escape of Himself and Others
from the Forecastle.

Richard Owing, q deck boy nineteen year.
old, belonging 10 Charleston, said that he
was asleep az the time in the forecastle, and
was awakened by the crash. A hole was stove
in the Champions starboard side, and through
It he got out and climbed up the side Of the
Octavia. A man called Thompson. Charley. a
German, and McMann were asleep with him
In the forecastle. Thompson got damned In
the broken wood work and the boy helped
min to extricate himself. Thompson and Nc
Mann got aboard the Octavia with HIM, Char
ley, the German, was caught IN the broken
wood work and called TO them for GODS sake
TO help him, but as the steamersank the wood
work foated off him and he was also taken
on board the Octdvia.
The Champion went down bow foremost.
The boy continued: 1--WE were all treated
we'll on board the Octavia. The people on her
said that all the fault lay with the steamer.
The hole stove in our port bow below the
water line was about two feet In diameter,
while there was n hole knocked IN above the
water about six feet In diameter. The bow
on the starboard side was oil smashed up, and
there was O crack In IT about eight feet long.
The crew Of twenty-four hands oil told went
three times in one OF her bouts to rescue the
and crew of the Champion. 1t was

To Accommodate the Ladr,

Writing on the rail Mr.. Burdette says 10 the
Burlington Hawkeye:-
woman with three bird cages ard little
girl has just got on the train. She arranges
the three bird cages on seat, and then she
and the little girl stand up in the aisle and
she glares around upon the ungallant men who
remain glued to their seats and look dteamly
out of the window. bend my face down to
the tablet and write fariously, for feel her
eyes fastened upon me. Some how or other,

nature. Just ss 1 expected. She speaks, fas
tenIng her commanding gaze upon me.
"Sr, would it be asking too much if /
begged you to let myself and my little girl
have that seat? A gentleman Can always find
seat so much more easily than lady"
Aud she smiled. Not the cbarmingest kind
OF smile. 1t was too triumphant to be very
pleasing. OF course l surreadered. L said:
On, certainly, certainly. [ could fla

She thanked me, and | crawled out of my
comfortable seat, and gathered up my overcost
my manuscript. my shawl strap package, my
valise, and my overshoes, and she and the little
girl went into the vacant premises as soon as
the writ OF ejectment bad been served, and they
looked happy and comfortable.

The Charges Against Senator Grover.

Speaking of the committee which made the
report containing the serious charges against
Senator Grover, the Portland Oregonian of the
9th inst, says: "Who are the authors of the
report? There is but one Republican among
them, and this fact is sufficient answer to the
charge that the committee was moved by par
tisan considerations in reporting the delin-
quencies OF Democratic officials. The Lsgisla-
ture which appointed this committee is Dsm-
ocratic in both branches. A majority of the
committee are Democrats OF unexceptionsbie
standing in their party. Mr.. Galloway, of
Yamhill, is a man in whose integrity his pee
twice elected to tae Legislature from Rspub-
hcan county. Mr.. Thompson, Of Wasco, is
man of highest standing for intelligence and
honor, and a Democrat whose record even, in
party sense, has never bsen impeached. Mr.
White, of Umatilla, though formerly Repub-
lican, has acted consistently with the Demo-
cratic party for many years past, and was
elected TO the Legislature by the highest major
1ty given TO any candidate in the strongest
Democratic county of the State. Mr.. Ross, of
jackson, though now acting as an Independent,
has Democratic record of many years stand
ing, aud never was a Republican. The only
Republican on the committee is Mr.. Tbomp-
son, of Multnomah, and he has never been an
extreme partisan. The members OF the COM
mittee are men whose lives disprove the a.ser-
ton that they have been or could be actuated
by personal spite In any matt-r, and least of all
in matter of responsible official duty The
attempt to parry in this way will not do. The
committee found official misconduct aud re-
ported upon it; and their language, though
always plain and direct, as it should be, is al
ways temperate and Discriminating.

The BOWdOin Bugle.

The Bowdoin Busle is as bright as baton,
filled to nearly overfowing with college jests,
droll pictures and opposite editorial comments
The froutispiece, representing the faculty
seated in the customary ssmi-ciecle of the
negro minstrel stage, is very funny. The grave
professors apparently have not that genuine
love of their art which impelled the English
actor to black himself all over when he went
oa as Othello-perhaps they think the students
will do all the blacking necessary.
From the Bugle we learn that each class
Is the wsast and merriest; and from the mum
Der of and the manner in which the G eek
litter societies attempt to out-do each other in
bluod-curd.ing symbols we judge that nothing
less than a vehmgercht holds sessions in each
OF the Brunswick storelofts. From the mix
cure of praying circles vito conytViai clubs Que
cannot avoid drawing the CONCLUSION that Old
Bowioin holds to thu Byronic creed OF rum and
true religion.

The French Cabinet Crisis.

1t is difficult to understand just what
measures the French Republicans, or the
great body of them represented by Gam
beta, desire to shape into legislation. One
thing only is clear: they want to see men OF
more radical views in charge of public
affairs. Doubtless their demand has been
fastened by the unwise action of President
MacMahon in the appointment of reac-
tionary Minister of War. But it would soon
come in any event. And there Is no good
reason why it should not be made. The
theory OF the new French Republic is the
theory of parliamentary government as it has
been developed in practice across the chan
mel. The Republicans are now in clear
majority. They carried the Chamber of
Deputies last October by an overwhelming
vote, and the recent elections gave them un-
disputed control of the Senate. They feel
that they are not represented by the cabinet,
and SO demand one in sympathy with their
views. The programme announced by the
Government does not meet with their ap-
proval, and they claim the right to frame one
that shall.
There is widespread belief that the French
Republicans are fastening too fast and thus
imperllling the Republic. The belief does not
seem to be wel-founded. The expression of
1t has been heard every time the Republicans
have made parliamentary move, and in
every instance the event has proved the
error OF the belief. So far the Rrpubli-
cans have known when and where to
stay their march and when to take
it up again. They have displayed mod
GRAFTON and good sense along with unfagging
vigor and wise persistency. The country has
sustained them in every step. 1t is behind
them now, and we have little reason to sup
pose that they are about to spoil all their
good work by hasty aud ill-considered legisla-
tion. The country has learned to put conf
dence in Gambetta. The world has yet to
learn that lesson-but it is in more recep-
tive mood than it has ever been before. In
this last crisis the leaders of the Left have
contented themselves with requiring the
ministry to adopt their programme and to
put itself in sympathy with the advanced
sentiment of the country. This done
change of personnel is not insisted upon.

WASHINGTON specials announce that the
commissioner of pensions has prepared cir
cular, saying that as soon as practicable after
the arrears pension bill has been signed he
will publish full instructions for all concerned
No claim under the bill will be adjusted till
Congress has made an explicit appropriation
for this class of claims. Meantime. all in-
quiries received will be filed, but no answers
returned till the cases are taken up for ad-
justment. This is necessary to prevent the
present work of the Office from being block
AIDED by unnecessary correspondence. The
bill has been referred by the President to the
Interior Department for report. 1t is found
that it covers wider ground than that upon
which the office estimate of twenty millions
was based, and that it Is certain to require
much more to meet its requirements. 1t is
not yet safe to say that the President will

prospect is an encouraging one for the future.
