To WASH FLANNEL.-Avoid hard
water aud rcsinous soaps, wiring without
twisting with wringer Flannel is so
porous texture that it is easily cleanscd
in good suds without much rubbing.
Hard rubbing tends to "fulr' the cloth,
and to rinse in cold water flannel that has
been washed in warm water, is a sure way
to shrink aud harden it. From cold to
warm but never from warm to cold. The
clean, warm rinsing water is sure to be
soapy enough, if good suds have been used
in the washing. One or two suds may be
used, according to the degree to which
the fannels have been soiled. When they
have been rinsod, two should take them,
one at each end, and shake and snap them
well to make them more soft and fuzzy.

Black and White Not to Marry.

RICHMOND, Va, April 9.-Edward Kin
ney and Mary, his wife, after a short hon
eymoon, have arrived at the penitentiary
here, under sentence of five years. impris-
onment Kinney is colored man of about
forty +; the woman is white, and about
thirty-five. They lived in Hanover county
for some months in improper intimacy,
when, complaint being made to the author
titles, they went to Washington city, and
were there united in marriage according to
the laws of the District of Columbia
Some weeks after their return to Hanover
they were arrested and indicted for vio-
lating the State law, which makes the in
termarriage of whites and blacks felony.
They we're tried together before white
jury, and found guilty, and their term Of
Imprisonment was fixed at five years in the
pententiary. They are now actually with
in the walls of that institution. 1t is un-
derstood that strongly approved petition
will be presented to the Governor asking
for their pardon on condition that they
leave the State forever. The law under
which they were convicted has passed un-
der the review of the Virginia Supreme
Court, and pronounced constitutional and
valid.

Wants to Get Out.

"Coloner' ROLAND, the gentlemanly
burglar who is now doing the State some
service in the Eastern Penitentiary for his
burglarious attempt on the Chambersburg
Bank two years ago, was detected a few
days ago in well-laid plan to escape from
prison. 1t seems that by some means he
bribed the turnkey and obtained commu-
nication with his wife, who is in Philadel-
phia. Numerous boxes were passed in to
him at different times. Suspicion was ex-
cited in some way and his cell was search
ed, revealing ropes, hooks, a bank book
showing him to have considerable sum of
money deposited in New York, and his
whole plan of escape written out in SYM
pathetic ink, by means of which they were
able to tell just exactly how he intended
to escape. He has since been placed in a
more secure cell.

young girl, aged about Is years, named

The Philadelphia North american says
"A case Of unusual gravity has been un:
der the investigation of the Society to Pro-
tect Children from Cruelty for some days
past. A week ago gentleman named
Chalfont, a resident of Jenkintown, called
at the Office of the Society and asked for
its protection of seventeen-year-old girl
named Marguerite, who had been in his
employ about four years. He said that a
few days previous her father, Owen McMa-
hon, had ordered her to return to his
house, but that she had refused to do 80.
After some persuasion she explained her
strange conduct by saying that he" father
was so brutal that she could not live with
him that her mother lost her reason, and
is now an inmate of the Barclay Insane
Asylum through his brutal treatment of
her, and that he had several times made
criminal assaults upon her younger sister.
The last charge was by far the more
serious, and Mr.. Crew, the secretary,
asked Mr.. Chalfont to bring, if possible,
the younger sister to the room of the Soci-
ETY.. Mcmahon meantime had become
more violent, and threatened to have his
daughter arrested unless she came to live
with him. A day or two later Mr.. Chal-
font brought the young girl named Kate to
the office, and there she sobbed out the
story of her fathers crimes. His arrest
followed on Tuesday. He was committed
to prison in default of $4,000 bail, to await
trial on the charge of incest. The man
h ad six children, all of whom, except
Marguerite, the oldest, are now in care Of
bhe Society.

Fall of a Large Meteor.

CHICAGO, April 9.-During a thunder
storm this evening, a meteor, which looked
while in the air about foot in diameter,
fell to the ground on the South side, burst
ing into many pieces just before striking.
1t was white with heat, aud the fragments
resembled clinkers. The wire of tele-
phone, connecting two business offices on
the South side, was struck by lightning
about the same time, and the electric fluid
entering the offices, played havoc with the

GEN. GRANT.
why He will be Nominated, and
WHY He will BE Defeated.

Washington Post.
In closely knitting himself 20 the
Floods, Sharons and other millionaire
families who constitute the noble
houses OF the Pacific slope, Gen. Grant
follows the same natural inclination
that marked his career years ago. The
country is not likely soon TO forget the
names Of the millionaires who presented
Gen. Grant with 100000 shortly before
his first nomination for the Presidency.
Indeed, Gen. Grant has made 1t impOs-
sible for those names TO be forgotten, for
no sooner was he installed in the PreSl-
dental Office than he began to repay the
personal benefactors by tender OF the
highest official positions at his disposal.
Several of the subscribers TO the hun
dred thousand gift were among his first
nominees for Cabinet offices. Those
who could not be thus cOnspicuously
rewarded were subsequently remember
ed in the distribution OF honors and
| emoluments, and it was one OF the worst
features of that era of unprecedented
corruption that the President came to
regard the public patronage as his
personal estate, to be used III paying
debts Of gratitude to friends for sub
stantial favors, or providing for whole
battalions of family connections. The
nabobs OF the Pacific slope understand
the man to whom they are toadying,
and they are willing to risk something
on the chances OF his election, just as
they stake their money on possibilities
in the stock exchange. But it is unfOr-
tunate for the success OF their Grant in
vestment that the ex-President's cater
ing shoddy, and his evident pleasure in
receiving the homage of that element OF
American society will be one of the
reasons why he will not attain to the
station in which he can reciprocate the
favors of his new friends.

THE Huntington Commercial says:
"But two hundred men were employed
two months ago in the five iron furnaces
along the line of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad, and now there are over
twelve hundred employed" This is but
one of the many indications OF revlving
business all over the country, and es-
pecially in the iron and coal districts OF
Virginia and West Virginia.
AN eastern exchange notes the fact
that the result of the rise OF two to four
dollars per ton in the price OF pig metal
has been to stop, or at least materially
interfere with, the manufacture of iron

down on the dock at less rates than they
are put on cars at the mills.
DURING the past week but little wheat
has been disposed of here. About two
thirds of the wheat grown in this coun-
tv was marketed before the rise, conse-
quently the greater amount was disposed
of at low figures compared to present
prices. We believe the highest price
paid for wheat here was $l.l6per bushel,
and that seems to be the ruling price to-
day (Thursday.) The demand Tor wheat
in the Eastern markets is great, and
probably this great commodity has not
vet reached the summit even in the To-
cal markets. But when producers can
get remunerative price, it is the better
policy 10 sell.-MOURdSriHe Commercial

Of the decline of sheep husbandry in
New England. In Connecticut the;num-
Der OF sheep is steadily growing less,
once that State had over 100000 sheep
now, counting Spring lambs, he doubts
ii there are $4,000 in the State. Many
towns which once had large fiocks now
have not a single sheep-literally. OF
the $4,000 sheep slaughtered in New
Haven in 1877, less than 80 were Con-
neticut sheep, or even fattened in that
State. They were chiefly from New
York and Canada. The sole cause OF
this low condition of one of the great az
ricultural interests of New England is
summed up in one word-dogs. And
what is needed TO change this is n State
law which hallImpose uniform tax on
dogs, and which town authorities cannot
evade.
