Jaclsson's Last Night as Presi
-. =, Gent,

The last. night of General Andrew
Jackson's presidency Of the United
States he spent in his private room,
in company with friends, awaiting
the breaking of day which should free
HIM from the cares Of Office. Sud-
denly he remarked: "Gentlemen,
think the occasion will warrant me
in breaking over one of my own
rules, Let US drink a little Madeira"
The wine was brought. Jackson
took small glassful-it was the
first liquor he had been known TO
touch for several months-and then,
asking his friends to excuse him for
few moments, he finished writing
a letter upon which he was engaged,
sealed, directed it, and lighting his
cob pipe again, took a Whit or two,
and stood silently watching the face
of great, tall, old-fashioned clock
which stood in one corner. 1t was
five minutes before midnight-fve
minutes before the beginning of the
day upon which Andrew jackson
would cease to be President of the
United States. Slowly the minute
hand moved round the dial. The
silence in the room became almost
painful. 1t was broken by the clear,
sharp bell of the clock striking the
last hour Of a day which had gone
forever. Then Jackson, starting
suddenly and looking toward his
friends, said, with a quick, nervous
laugh: Gentlemen, am no longer
President Of the United States, but
as good citizen as any of you."-
Subsequently he expressed to them
a feeling of great relief at the pros,
pect of escaping from the official
cares which had begun to weigh
most heavily upon him saying: 81
am very glad to get away from all
this excitement aud bother" That
day Van Buren was inaugurated
President of the United States, and
Jackson, at the end of his second
term, left the White House-left it
so poor that he was obliged to bor-
row from his friends $1,000 with
which to rebuild "Hermitage," his
old family mansion, which some
time before had been burned to the
ground.

The Delights of Fishing.

A man who was yesterday getting
ready for trip to the Flats, and a
struggle with bass and pickerel, say
the Free Press, was stopped on the
street by a solemn-mihded acquain-
tance, who said: at seems curious to
me that you will go up there and
fish, when fish are SO cheap in the
market"
"Why, I don't care cent for the
fish," replied the other,
"Then, why do you go?'
81 don't mind telling you, but don't
let it go any further" whispered thu
fisherman. "Every fisherman you
meet up there offers you ten-cent
cigar and drink of Sc whiskey,
while you may walk around town all
day and never be asked TO even take
a glass Of water with piece Of fy.s
paper in it,"
The solomn-minded man looked
horrifed, but he hadn't gone two
blocks before he entered a store and
asked to sea fish line-a cheap one.

A STORY OF THE FRENCH
REVOLUTION.

The Countess de la Floret, was one
ofthe most beautiful and accomplish.
ed women in France, and the Count,
her husband, was the very flower of
the old noblesse.
Before marriage she had the mis-
fortune to become acquainted with a
young officer, named Pierre Duhem,
who at once conceived for her the
most passionate attachment.
His attentions were, of course, dis
couraged by the ladies; but neverthe-
less he insisted upon making her a
tender ofhis hand, which she declin-
ed with firmness, but, at the same
time, with great kindness and con-
sideration, assuring him that she felt
deeply grateful for his earnestly ex-
Decentralization, apd. hoping he
would yet find one more worthy than
herself to become his bride.
Duhem listened with apparent
calmness to her words, but akecnob-
server would have been prepared by
the deadly palor that overspread his
brow and the nervous twitchings of
thin, bloodless lips, for the fearful
outbreak that followed.
as that your final, irrevocable de-
termination?" he asked, in a low,
Kissing tone, at the same time Seiz-
ing her white arm roughly.
at is" she answered, and would
have proceeded still further in her
attempt to conciliate him, but he in
terruptcd her fercely,
"Listen to me-" he cried, and she
shrank back trembling from the cold,
flashing gray eyes. Listen to me
you triumph now; but mark me, my
day will come yet. l curse you from
the bottom of my heart, and my own
hand and brain shall work out the
ful6llmcnt Of that curse. you ev.
er wed, will gloat over the dying
agonies of your husband
"Leaye me, leave me, was all she
had the strength to say.
He only held her white arm tight
er in his iron grasp, and hissed closer
in her ear: "You think these are idle
threats, but so sure as the sun is in
heaven will l make them terrible
truth. Woman, you have made n
demon Of me. Tremble at the fend
you have yourself raised up" So
saying, he dashed her from him and
rushed from the house.
"Time passed on, and, as the hap.
py wife Of the Count de la Floret,
the terrible scene that so shortly pre-.
ceded her marriage was almost eras.
ed from her memory, and nothing
occurred to mar the serenity of her
everyday lifountil the outbreak ofthe
Revolution-that fearful saturnalia
of blood that spread terror and desc
lation all over Europe.
In common with others the young
Count and his lovely wife were fore
ed to fly before the fury of tho ex.
asperated populace. Assisted by a
devoted friend, who, though warm
Republican, remained true to them,
they succeeded in making their es.
cape from Paris, and aided by the
passes he had secured, reached, un.
harmed, the little village ofColloure.
After passing a night in this place,
they once more set out on their journ-
ey toward the coast, when suddenly,
at the outskirts of the town, the car
riago was stopped by platoon of
soldiers drawn up before the horses
heads.

CLOVERING MANURE.-IU Is remarka-
bic that more attention Is not given to
the subject of covering manure from
the weather, and especially from too
much rain. Those who have given the
matter particular attention have found
that manure soprOtected Is worth doub-
lie that which is left out Inv the open air.
Two loads fer one Is profit few far
mers can afford to lose. There is no
question so vitality concerns the farmer
as this one OF manure. Much that he
does has reference to IL. Straw Is not
TO be fed through the winter for the ex-
press purpose of manure making. Ar
tcles which scarcely pay to send to
market are nevertheless taken to the
city In order that manure may be
brought back as n return load and vet
the whole Of The manure made remains
all the season exposed To the sun, wind
and rain until IL is diminished one-half
IN value. The trouble is probably that
few really believe that exposed man
ures undergo this loss. But the matter
has been too thoroughly tested to adj
init of doubt. We know tirst-ciass
farmers who did not themselves be-
lieve IL until by actual experiment they
lound out its truth. In arranging
farm buildings it will pay well to look
AS much to the preservation of the man
ure as to the hay or grain, and those
who have their buildings already fin
lshed without these manurial arrange
ments Will find that twenty-five or fifty
dollars spent on boards for covered
shed will rank among the best invest
ments ever made.

CATS AS FARM STOCK The charm
less, unnecessary cat" is not so well
treated as il deserves. One rarely con-
slders that weil-kept cat may be.merc
profitable than COW. III one rat per
day Is destroyed, the services OF the cat
may be estimated as at least equal to 800
per year. Let us Try TO calculate the
enormous damage done by 365 rats i'm
one year, TO say nothing of the ravages
ofthe numerous progeny of the vermin.
one rat per day Is moderate amount
OF business for an active cat. Recently
the writer counted five rats captured in
"a stable by one cat I'm one day, and pos
slbly others were not seen. The cat be-
ing well fed, hunted for amusement,
and did not eat the prey. This is the
principal point in the management of "A
cat. 1t should be well and regularly
fed, for rats are unwholesome food.
They arc infested with Larvae of tape
worms, and cats are frequently tor
mented with the mature parasites In
consequence or diseased rats. When
kept free from hunger cat will watch
more patiently, and will only occasion
ally devour rat or mouse. The most
successful food for 4 cat is n mixed ami
mai and vegetable diet. Milk and bread,
lew potatoes with meat gravy, or a
little fat and sprinkling of salt, with
an occasional scrap of meat, are excel
lent food, and will keep the animal i'm
good health.

CHARCOAL FOR SICK ANIMALS.--N

Charcoal is the most efficient and rapid

OF the finest cows was very sick, and a
kind neighbor proposed the usual

OF pulverized charcoal to be given in
water. 1t was mixed placed i'm Junk

the water turned downward. In five
minutes Improvement was visible. and
In Few hours the animal was I'm the

stance OF equal success occurred with a
young heller which had become badly
bloated by eating green apples after
hard wind. The blOat was so severe
that the sides were as hard as a barrel
The old remedy, saleratus, was tried
Tor correcting the acidity. But the at
tempt 70 pat it down always raised
coughing, and IL did little good. Half
a teacupful Of fresh powdered charcoal
was given. In six hours all appear
ance Of the bloat had gone, and the hei-
fer was well.
