The Largest Orchard in the World.

The largest orchard in the world is
doubtless that owned and worked very
successfully by Mr.. Robert McKinstry,
of Hudson, Columbia county, n. Y.
Mr.. Mckinstry's orchard is procuring
for him a worldwide reputation, and
has many visitors. Like all fruit grow
ers and others of kin to that profession,
he is kindly and literally disposed. and
has no secrets to reserve from others
who are interested in his labors. The
| orchard is situated on the east bank of
the Hudson river, on high, rolling table
land, and contains more than 1900
| apple trees, Zoo pairs, 1000 cherries,
500 peaches. 200 plums, 200 crabs, 1000
vines, 600 currants and 600 chestnuts.
The varieties grown are: Rhode Island
Greening, 1000: Baldwins, 5000; King
of Tomkins county, 1000; Astrachans,
900; Northern Spy, 500; Wagner, 500;
Gravensteir, 400; Cranberry Pippins,
200; Ben Davis, 200; Duchess of Olden-
berg, 200; with Jonathans, Hubbard
stones, Cayugas, Vanderveers, Belle
flowers, Permains, Peck's Peasants,
2O-ounce Pippins, Russetts and 9TH
ers in less number. The pears are
Bartlett, B. d'Anjou, Sheldon, Seckel
and Lawrence chiefly. OF cherries
there are % varieties. The orchard is
remarkably thrifty, and the Oldest trees
are about twenty years old. The soil is
a dry, rolling gravel, with some lime
stone; the trees are planted 80 feet
apart, and do not seem by any means
to be crowded. The ground is plowed
several times in the year and kept fall
low, excepting when thought advisable,
it is seeded to clover. The orchard is
intersected by roads over six miles in
length for the passage of wagons, and
Is bonded by continuous row of ap
pie trees set ten feet apart for four and
one-half miles. The soil is certainly
welladapted for fruit-growIDg, for the
trees are clean, thrifty, compact and
loaded with the highest colored and
fairest looking fruit. The apple-crop of
the present year is expected to be 10000
barrels, large portion of which will
be exported to Liverpool and Glasgow.
Twenty-four men and fourteen horses
are employed hauling outthe crop or in

A Curious Mystery in Nova Scotia.

Nova Scotia has an awesome mystery
among its simple people at Amherst,
where an evil spirit has taken strange
possession of Esther Cox. She has been
a modest maid, scouting the idea of
spirits and knowing nothing about ami
NAL magnetism, but recently one Nc
Neil, fellow-workman in an Amherst
boot and shoe shop, unsuccessfully tried
to seduce her in mesmeric influence.
The attempted outrage drove Mcneil
from the vicinity and laid Esther Cox
on sick bed, from which she rose DOS
sessed of the powers exercised bv the
most skiilful mediums. Strange rap
pings were heard, lightly tapping on the
wall and heavily striking on the beams
and roof of the house. as if with an ak.
Sometimes the sounds beat musical
measures, and again Esther was struck
IN the face so hard that red mark, as
of burn or scald, was left. The clothes
were taken from her bed and hurled
across the room, and once a piece Of
plaster foot square was torn from the
wall and shivered against the door. The
bed, tables and chairs danced about as
If on legs, and a pencil in Esther's hand
traced vulgar sentences on the walls in
McNelPs illiterate scrawl. Cold water
has been agitated as if boiling, and the
inquisitive have received answers to
their questions. All these things have
been witnessed by clergymen, doctors
and skeptical persons, but they almost
all repudiate the idea of mesmeric in
duence and have given the girls such
tests that they are satisfied themselves
that these are not tricks of hers. Most
believe that the great black hand she
claims to have. seen is due to hallucina-
ton, but those who believe that the
whole thing is a fraud Though all admit
that they cannot account for it, have
considerable support in the fact that 10
cents admission was finally charged.
Matches were finally lit about her bro
ther-in-laws house, where Esther was
boarding, which started fires in different
places. The fire marshal threatened
arrest if it happened again; the girl
found another boarding place, and the
manifestations have ceased.

THE CHILDREN ARE GROWING
RESTLESS.

The children are growing restless, wife,
And full of disconle nt,
They long 10 90 into the great worlds strife,
AS we befuIe them went;
And more and more, as the days go by,
see with silent pain,
That the pleasures that used to satisfy
Grow fiavOrleSs and vain.
The children are growing restless, wife,
| say it without complaint,

And are sick of the home restraint.
We have tried to guide with an easy rein,
But at the best, you know
Our ways are the wa e or the olden time
And the children. find them slow.
o, yes they are growing restless wife
As they gather about the hearth
Their minds are rife with the mad worlds strife
And huUgerlng after its mirth.
The boys are dreaming Of wealth and fame,
And the girls Of pleasure and glte:
OF laughter and light, and hours more bright
Than they find with You and me.
Nay, nay now do not weep. good wife,
we must let the children 90.
1t is only part of the plan of life
They VIII learn TO spare Us so.
III the birds are fiedged, ere the nest blows down
They can build for themselves anew.
So LEI them 90, ere the sportsman Death
Takes aim at me and vou.
We must sit alone and pray, good wife,
For the children who foam abroad:
PRAY that after the end of strife
They may all come home TO God.

GEN. SHERMAN SATISFIED.
His Opinions on the New Army Bill

Washington Post.
A representative of the Post called or
Gen. Sherman at his rooms in the Ebbi
House last night for the purpose of OBJ
tanning his views on the pending bill
Tor the reorganization of the army
Though courteous, as usual, Gen. Sher
man preferred not to commit himself
to any detailed expression of opinion
on the new army bill, because it affected
the interests of so many of his old fel.
low-officers, but he felt certain that the
committee had acted in a spirit of fair.
ness to the army at large.
Have you examined the bill, gen
eral?' said the Post.
That Is just what | am doing now,
said the general pointing to huge
document lying on the table before
him. & find" continued he, "that
the first part of the bill provides for the
organization ON a basis of $4,000 mer
and thirty regiments in lieu of the
present forty. 1t affects the staff de
partment and bureaus more than il
does the line of the army. This part
OF the bill is comparatively short anG

tlrst seventeen pages. The whole o.
the remainder of the bill, which has
264 pages of printed matter, enacts 8
law substantially made up heretofore Of
regulations, embracing the articles oil
war. On the whole, [ am pleased with
the bill. because it makes clear and
distinct many things which heretofore
have been uncertain or dependent on
usage Or custom"
Z" [ observe" said the Post, that one
of the newspapers this morning charges
that the bill legislates Gen. Drum out of
office to make way for relative of
yours"
" So have been told, replied the gen
eral, "and have only to say that the writ
er displayed both his ignorance and his
malice in the publication Of such stuff.
Gen. Drum will not be legislated out of
Office. He is not affected by it at all.
If the bill becomes a law. Adiutant-
General Townsend will be mustered
out. Gen Drum is assistant adiutant-
general and by reason of seniority will
be promoted, unless the president by
his own volition selects some one else"
"What relative of yours is alluded
to in that article?n
" | don't know; [ haven't relative
in the army. Gen. Miles is no relative
of mine, but connection by reason of
having married my niece" D.
Has Gen. Miles been mentioned for
the placer
He has been mentioned by the news
papers, [ believe, in connection with
the office; bit | have never mentioned
his name, nor have | heard the pres
ldent or secretary of war mention it in
that connection. Gen. Miles is, how
ever, an officer of high merit, and has
been in active service on the frontier

WOman's Wages.
New York Tribune.

Women complain, and very Justly, OF
the discrimination made against them
in the matter of wages. They receive
generally, as is we'll known, much less
than men, even when doing the same
work that men do, the fact of their sex
being thus most nngallantly and I'M
righteousIy counted against them.
Perhaps the highest price paid in the
country proper to any woman is in Bos-
ton, where, as school teachers, they get
$3.50 a week the year round, including
ten weeks vacation. Statistics of the
relative wages of the sexes have been
made up in number of states for 1875.
In Massachusetts the average earning
per month for men was $SS 81; for
women, $685.. In Maine, men, $37 ;
women, $18. In Pennsylvania, men,
$41 OF; women, $34OO. In OHIO, men,
$50; women, $44. In Michigan. men,
$51.2O; women, $3.50. In some states,
however, in Iowa, for example, the Gus
tom OF allowing the same salary to men
and women for the same kind of work,
is growing general. In st. Louis no
distinction Of sex is made in respect to
teachers pay. When women do mems
work they receive equal wages. The
California legislature determined years
since that female teachers in the
public schools should have the same
pay as male teachers for like services.
Some of the Southern states and Arizo-
ma, idaho and Nevada, pay men and
women equally, so that justice is likely
to be done ere long to all women oblig-
ed To earn their own livelihood Teach
ers of both sexes in the schools, all pri-
mary, of Arizona, earn from 500 to
1925 month, but one should be paid
handsomely for merely living in Ari-
IONA.
