THE city of Memphis may not succeed
In lodging her debt by the trick Of hav-
ing her charter repealed. Judge Bax-
ter, of the Unitel States Circuit Court,
has appointed receiver to take charge
of the city's finances, collect its back tax
es, take possession of its property, raise
money in any way, by garnisment, or
otherwise. and pay its creditors. All
creditors are notified to file their claims
on or before the the third Monday of
next May. This sharp legal process ap-
piled to Memphis will probably put a
sudden end to attempts to repndiate city
debts by the dodge of having city char
tiers repealed. Memphis promises to fare
much worse than if she had made prop
er effort to pay, stopped fighting her
taxes elected an economical city govern
ment and been honest.

For about three years after the estab-
lishment of the TRIBUNE, copy was
sent regularly at the expense of the
publisher to every one Of the Michigan
delegation in Congress. Articles in refer
ence to our harbor improvements and
other matters relating thereto were
marked, thus calling especial attention
to them. This being considerable Of q
burden financially, and not feeling that
it was incumbent npon us to furnish the
STOOD for reflection" and the entire ex-
pense of getting it to its destination,
while those who were very largely,
financially, interested in the proper i'm
provements of the harbor did compare
lively nothing, we suspended the free

reasonably fair appropriations in pro-
portion to those made in other places.

circumstance has any relation to the
other, we will not pretend to say. Our

In return for the privilege to Ameri-
can tugs to rescue wrecked American
vessels and crews on Canadian beaches,
bars, or reefs-when the Canadians have
no wrecking tugs themselves-ourn neigh
bors propose that the tonnage dues on
Canadian bottoms be abolished. and that
Canadians may be allowed to serve on
our steamers as captains, mates, and en-
gineers without swearing allegiance to
the United States. How very generous
our Canadian cousins are, eh? If Can

distressed American vessels in time,
American tugs will succor them if they
have to do so by force.

ZACHARIAH CHANDLER is again
United States Senator from Michigan,
Again Michigan is represented in the
Senate by two men who have national
regulations. Although it was definitely
known last week that Dir. Chandler
would receive a majority of the votes,
and no doubt existed as to his election,
the official act which sealed the verdict
took place last Tuesday, when the Legis-
Iature made his election official. The
vote stood: Chandler, So; o. M. Barnes,
%; Henry Chamberlain, Is; the
last named being the Democratic Green
back candidate, and Mr.. Barnes the
straight Democratic. In regard to the
ability and influence of its Senators
Michigan now stands second to no state
in the Union. The election of Zach
Chandler to the Senate will be received
with delight by Republicans of every
state in the Union as well as in Michi
gan, for there is no state in which hi
name is not known and honored.

Flower Garden Hints.

Many people say that their flowers,
which once did so well, do not thrive
any more, and the reason is incompre-
hensible to them. In many cases the
trouble is from WORKOUT soil and If IL
little manure or little fresh earth be
added occasionally, it is wonderful what
an effect it will have on the renewed
growth of half-worn-Out root stocks.
Some kinds of flowers, especially, soon
grow surly and bad tempered unless
they have complete change OF earth
once in a while. The verbena is of this
character. In perfectly fresh soil-that
is, earth which has never grown YER
bena befOre,-it grows like weed; but
the next year it is not quite so well, and
in few years it absolutely refuses to
creep, run, or do anything, and we are
forced to confess that the verbena won't
do for us as it used to years ago.
Other flowers are not quite so stub
hornly fastidiOus as the verbena; but
still all more or less like to feel rejuve-
mated by an addition of some kind Oc-
casionally to the earth-blessings they
have already been treated to.
Almost all our best hardy flowers are
natives OF woods, or low, undlsturoed
lands, where the decaying leaves from
the trees, or the washings of higher sur
face lands, make a new annual enter
tainment for them and it has been
found by experiment that nothing is so
good for these pretty little flowers as
we'll decayed leaf mold from the woods,
spread round the root stocks, just above
the ground. But. where this cannot he
had, any other well decayed vegetable
refuse that may "be laying around
loose" will do very nearly as well.
Strong, rich manure-barnyard manure
has not been found very good for
garden flowers. 1t makes the heritage
too strong, and the flowers less in pro
portion. But, if nothing mole natural
can be got at to help the flowers along
and the soil seems exhausted and poor,
this will be found much better than
leaving the plants to struggle along as
best they GermdntOWn Telegraph.

of Macaulay's face in repose, remarked,
''Well, any one can see that you are an

eat it. One thing we do know, that 1t

How to Plant Peas.

Last spring | put in my first peas and
potatoes on the 18th of March, and had
splendid crops of both, but usually we
can not do much in the open soil before
the first week in April. As soon, how
ever, as the frost is out and the ground
is dry enough, shall plant in my driest
and warmest soil some little gem and
LaxtOn's alpha peas. | shall open fur
rows three inches deep for the gems,
and one foot apart, and i'll these burrows,
scatter compost about an inch deep,
draw Il pointed hoe through the furrew
to mingle the manure with the soil, and
then sow thickl y-three peas to an inch.
| will treat the LaXtOn's alpha i'll the
same way, with the exception that the
rows will be two and half feet apart.
The little gems grow only foot high,
and require no support. The alphas
require two and half feet brush. Two
weeks later | shall plant for second crop
little gem, M'Lean's advancer and
champion of England. have tried IL
great many kinds, and have come to
the conclusion that the four kinds
have named are the richest favored
and sufficiently productive-in brief, all
things considered, the best. 1t is a
pleasant and inexpensive amusement to
try fifty other kinds in a small way.
Since ''Let us have peas" is such fire.
quent aud emphatic remark at our din
ner table, | shall plant literally every
ten days until the 4th of July, burying
the seed deeper as the season advances,
and choosing shadieT and mOister local
tiles. Very late paintings are usually
so injured by mildew that were the
vegetables not such favOrite, | would
not plant it after middle Of May. Deep
planting of the seed late in the season
insures longer bearing. prefer cham
piOn of England for the main crop, as
it is by general consent regarded as the
flower of the pea family. The short,
low growing kinds like little gem Will
he the better for any amount of manure,
but tall varieties like the champion, do
not need fertilizers in the drill unless
the ground is poor. When gardens are
small and brush is not convenient, 1t
may he best to plant the dwarf kinds
only. They can ne sOwn on ground
designed for tomatoes, Lima beans,
melons, squash, etc, is they do not
shade the .round. and soon mature.
nut them in such spaces almost alto
gether, ana in rows three or four feet
apart, and plant the later vegetables
between them. As soon rs the green
pods are picked, have the vines dug
under, thus returning at once to the
soil what was taken from it.-E. p. Zoe,

THE WINGS OF THE SOUL.-Those
who neglect the habit of regular prayer
soon find that nothing so quickly affects
the sweetness and the strength of the
Christian life, or its nearness to a right
spiritual condition. As a recent Ger
man writer expresses this idea: ''The
lark goes up singing towards heaven /;
but if she stops the motion of her wings,
then straightway she falls. So it is
with him who prays not. Prayer is the
movement of the wings of the soul: it
bears one heavenwards but without
prayer, he sinks in the filth of earthly
impulses"
