From the New York World. :" :.
!. A watch.chain, identified as one
stolen on New Years night from the
house of Luke Fleet, at Mineola, L. l.,
was found Thursday In the possession
Of Susan Gabel, a negress, and she and
her husband, white man named Jar
Wis Gabe], were arrested on the charge
that they stole it. Gabel says he was
born in New Brunswick, N. s., and
that he ran away from home when a
boy, and after travelling around the
world as steward, went about eight
years ago to Little Neck. He is
healthy and does not appear to be
weak>minded. When, however, he
was asked how it happened that he had
negress, he said that the
woman had "charmed" him. The
charm used, he went on to say, con-
sisted Of a lock of his hair and SIM
gle horse hair, which she put in a bot
tie half filed with water. She then
recited charm, and when one end of
the horse>hair rose out of the water
the spell was complete and he was com>
pletely in her power. He could not
escape her until the bottle was broken,
and she had taken care to prevent this
by burying the bottle. He had tried
several times to get away from her,
but failed. He was obliged to obey
her in all things. He married her,
and she compelled him to join the
church and make public confession
of his sins. Gabel and his wife are
now in jail, together with William
Jackson, Gabers brother>in>law.

That is, the fourth section was amended

That is, the fourth section was amended
so that no. owner of bullion would e ever yer
have an ounce of it coined. It provides,
in effect, that the charges for melting and
refining the silver shall be so adjusted
that the owner of bullion will receive
payment in standard silver dollars at the
market price, in gold, of SAID bullion.
That is much worse tnan the old law.
for under the old law the secretary of the
treasury is compelled to have at least two
million dollars month coined; and uns
der this bill, as amended, not dollar
would be coined, Such iagrant and out
rageous corruption on the part Of men,
bers Of Congress deserves the plainest
and most emphatic expressions of con-
demnation. IT, Congress is a piece of

to inform themselves of the fact, and un>.
dertake, at least, to bring about reform.

BE INDEPEsDEST.-Don't hang round
and wait for somebody else to 60 ahead.
Break your own path. Do what you
want done, yourself. Don't put of to-
days work until to morrow in the hope
that it will be done for you.
If you want to succeed, take off your
gloves and collous your own hands on
The plow- handles.
If you are woman, and Bridget goes
off in huff, be independent, and wash
your own dishes, and scrub your own
floors, and laugh in her face when she
comes back, expecting to be received,
with open arms.
There is nothing like showing fate,
even if it be fate in the shape of an i'll
tempered Bridget, that you are inde-
pendent of it, and can get on without it..
When people find you don't want any
of their help they are always eager to
help you. Things that you do not stand
in need of will be offered you freely.
When you see duty before you, do
it, and don't etand shivering on the
brink, for fear somebody will say some
thing about it. What matters if Mrs.
A. says you are fool, and Mrs. B. ex-
presses the opinion that there is some
thing wrong in your upperstory! What
they say does not alter it.
Don't ask everybody's advice about
everything. Have pluck enough to
decide for yourself. If you wart to buy
bnshel of corn don't spend day run
ming about asking Y. Y. and q. where
YOU had better buy, or if you hadn't
better wait until grain falls.
Don't he slave as to what anybody
else is going to say about you. If you
have enemies, and Of course you have,
unless you are born idiot, let them
fling out at you Show the world by
your daily life that your enemies have
lied. Live lying slanders down. Lift
up your head and be Independent OF
them. Have no confdants and go be-
tween.
Mutual friends are disastrous failures
anywhere outside of Charles Dickens
novels.
In all matters of right and wrong
Judge for yourself; decide for yourself;
stand for yourself.
Be independent. DO not cast your
burdens upon others.
The tree which lifts its rugged bran
ches to the sky, in the open field stands
firm before the tempest, which will up
root it's brother in the thickly grown
woodland. 1t has learned TO stand for
itself. 1t has learned the lesson which
every man who would make his life 2
success, should learn-to be indepen-
dent.

FATAL SHOOTING AFFAIR.-A dispatch
from Vicksburg says: A shocking affair
occurred last night between Captain w.
F. Fitzgerald, or one side, and Mr. W.
l.. Andrews and w. l.. Greene, in
which Andrews and Greene were killed
almost instantly and Fitzgerald danger
ously wounded. The difficulty origina
ted about the Hibernian meeting on
Monday night, at which Andrews was
elected President. Fitzgerald claimed
still TO be president of the Hibernian
Society, and denounced the election Of
Andrews as a farce. Greene took e1-
ception to Filzgerald's remarks, and
threatened TO draw weapon, but Fitz-
gerald drew first and shot Greene
through the heart. Andrews then shot
Fitzgerald, ard Fitzgerald in turn shot,
Andrews, the ball piercing Andrews
skull at the top of the forehead. The
affair caused intense excitement, as all
were well known citizens. Andrews
was the mead of the firm of Andrews &
Brother, and was president of the How
ard Association, after Mr.. Rockwood's
death last summer. Mr.. w. l.. Greene
was clerk to Andrews brother. Fitz-
gerald is prominent lawyer, and was
Republican State District Attorney.
Andrews and Greene were natives of
Vicksburg, and Fitzgerald of Jackson,
Miss.

SPEAKER RANpALL.-Samuel j. Kan
dali, who was elected Speaker OF the
House of Representatives, by the demo-
Gratis at its recent organlzation,w was born
in Philadelphia, Pa, in 1928. lie was
for many years engaged in mercantile
pursuits. He served four years in the
philadelphia city council and one term
in the State Senate. In 1862 ne was
elected Representative TO the Thirty
eighth Congress, and has served contin-
uously in successive Congresses ever
since. From the first Mr.. Randall be-
came conspicuous member OF Con-
press, combining tact and GOODNESS with
legislative experience, and wac early re.
cognized as leader in very small
democratic minority which then existed
in the House. His most memorable
services to his party were rendered in
resisting the passage Of the famous
sforce bill" in 1872, which would have
assuredly been passed but for the won
derlul endurance, parliamentary skill
and nplomL displayed by Mr. Randall,
the leader of the minority. 1t was his
services on this occasion which secured
the election of Mr.. Randall as Speaker
of the Forty fifth Congress, where his
course was such as TO secure very gen
cral approval. IT was conceded by ev-
cry one that no sob" ever got through
that Congress with Mr.. RandalIs con-
nivance or approval, and no man ever
showed in the same position a greater
or more comprehensive acquaintance
with the whole scope and all the mlnu'
tia of parliamentary law.

after you tell her, and she won't believe

The Farmers Life.

The following is an extract from o
speech delivered by Judge Farrar, of
Amelia county, a. the Piedmont Fair:
AIr. President, the term "Clodhop-
per- will soon cease to be word of re-
proach. Why should not the farmer
be the first and foremost, the peer OF
the highest' His manner of life makes
him independent, tolerant and happy.
Above the smiles and the frowns of
the tickle public, his empire is his home,
his dominion his smiling fields; with no
inspiration for duplicity, no temptation
for intrigue and chicanery. Free from
the chickering's of fashionable society,
none OF the jealousies of professional life
modest the even tenor of his way. What
are the bonors of the world to him.
When the tolls OF the day are over, he
finds his greatest pleasure in the sweet
rest OF home.
Why should he not he the truest OF
patriots? Will he not strike for the
home he has earned by his honest toll ?
The homeless, shiftless adventurer, can
never feel the holy devotion for coun-
try, as the one who has q home 10 love
and hearthstone 10 defend. Magnify,
as you please, the laws ard the consti-
tuition, it is the strong home feeling that
gives the potent influence. The mau
who has spot of earth, where he has
planted tree, or his wife has nursed
flower, in the hour of trial will evince
devotion and heroism that will pnt
10 shame the hollow pretensions OF all
the blatant politicians and demagogues
in the land. And above all, the farmer
should be the best OF Christians. His
lite is farther removed from temptations
and worldly influences. His mode OF
life should fill his mind with grand and
holy conceptions of his God, and his de-
pendence on the benetactions of kind.
ly Providence.
When he rises in the morning and
beholds the sky all abiaze with the
glowing sun, and as he watches his
progress upward and onward, can he
| not contemplate the unsleepiug eye OF
the Great Eternal ever guarding his
ways and actions.
And when the shadows Of the even
ing fall around him, and he lays down
his implements of toll, will he not re
member the bour when his earthly Ia
bors shall close in upon him forever
Aud as he drops the dry seed in the
ground, and sees it spring up and -four
ish, he may think of the day when he
shall sleep in the cold earth, yet TO rise
again in eternal freshness and beauty.
Ny friends, these are some of the inspi-
ations of farmers life. May impor-
tune you to love and cherish your noble
calling.
