The Napoleonic Dynasty.

The death of Prince Napoleon in
Iululand, says the Baltimore Sun, shat
tiers the hopes of the French imperi-
alists, whilst it removes one obstruc-
tion to the permanent establishment Of
the republic; for so long a Prince
Louis Napoleon lived he would have
had numerous following in the pro-
vinccs and among the clergy, aud in
the chances and changes of French
politics he might, in the course of
years, have attained to power. Now,
by the will of the first Napoleon,
Prince jerome Bonaparte is the next
in succession; but his profession of
liberal principles and the bitter antag-
onism that has existed for long time
between him and the Empress and her
ill-iated son have brought him into
disrepute with the impcrialists, while
he has won for himself no solid favor
with the republicans. For himself,
therefore, he can expect no genuine
support from that quarter, although
the exigcncics Of the impcrialists may
induce them to rally around his son.
Napoleon Victor, four years younger
than the late Prince imperial, and
coming, after his father, in the line of
succession. But if the republicans
are the immediate gamers by the death
of Prince Louis Napoleon, the Or
leani-t princes are also greatly
strengthened in their dynastic aspira-
tious. Since the fall of the empire
they have acted with great discretion,
and the restoration Of their estates has
given them all the power that money
can WELD when the occasion comes for
using it to support their claims. But
the great and immediate relief is that
experienced by the republicans, for
the activity and aggressivencss of the
imperialists kept them always promi.
nently before the people, and the name
of Napoleon was still capable of in.
spring enthusiasm in many depart
ments of France.

Claim, of Boggs, and Mr.. Cyrus Brum-

County Convention, as Representative
delegates to the State Convention, will
be cordially endorsed by the Democ-
racy of Centre county. Aside from
the fact that their election was q
splendid vindication of the integrity
of the Democratic organization of the
county, they are both active and
worthy young Democrats entitled to
the respect and confidence of every
member Of the party. These feelings
we're strongly indicated by the deci-
siye vote that each received in the
Convention. They are not instructed
to support any one for the Office Of
State Treasurer, but the people they
will represent in the Harrisburg Con-
vention can safely and confidently rely
upon one thing: Their action in that
Convention will be dictated by an
honest purpose to serve the best in

Cochrane and Goldsmith Maid.

We have heard a great deal from east
ern travellers of the wonderful attach
ment which exists between the horse and
his master in Oriental lands, but we
doubt if ever anything more interesting
has been told than the following story
of Goldsmith Maid: Recently, Charles
Cochrane, who was for many years her
faithful groom, arrived from California
and wishing to see the grand old trotting
mare and her colt, called on Mr.. Smith,
her owner, to obtain his permission to
visit Fashion Stud Farm in New Jersey.
Mr.. Smith accompanied Cochrane to the
farm, and on arriving there remarked:
"Charley, the Maid is very jealous of
her colt, is very cross, and will permit
no one to approach it, Cochrane
arranged that Goldsmith Maid should
hear his voice before she saw him, and,
although they had not seen each other
for two years, loud whinny presently
assured the visitors that the mare had
recognized the mans voice. Cochrane
next showed himself, when touching
scene occurred. The old queen Of the
turf, who for months would not allow
any one to approach her, making use of
DOtA ACCis duU GccGu IL IL was dgtCupICU,
rushed with bound to her cid friend,
forgetting even her colt, and rubbed her
head upon his shoulder, her nose in his
face, played with his wkiskers, and
showed by her every action that her
heart was full of joy to see him. Di-
rectly the colt came up to them, and the
old mare was delighted when Charley
placed his hand on the little fellow.
When Cochrane left the place the mare
followed him to the gate, whinnying for
him even after he had passed out Of her

The Educated StoWawav.

An officer of Philadelphia steamship
company tells the following story: " I
was on ship once going to Rio, when
they dragged out stowaway and put
him to work. One day he came to me,
and being q man of fine address and edu-
cation, had no difficulty in convincing
me that he was escaping from German
literary institution, where he had wit
messed, as second, fatal duel. He said
he had money, and showed me several
hundred pounds in notes of the Bank of
England. He was willing to be consid-
cred a stowaway, in order that his name
should not appear on the cabin list.
Could / help him to get out of the ship
at Rio? I readily promised and gave
him for $3.50 in Bank OF England notes
Mexican dollars and doubloons. lie got
out OF the ship all right at Rio, and
carried my notes back to England, where
| found on attempting to DEPOSIT them
in bank, that they were base counter
feits, and that my intellectual stowaway
was an escaped burglar and forger, and
that | had become his victim"

One Eye that was Always Drunk.

An Allegheny physician, who, in his
way, is great wag, tells story of a
north side gentleman who for ten years
has suffered from what in medical par
lance is known as superorbital neuralgia.
Quinine proved of no effect, and the
sufferer was almost crazed with pain. A
kind-hearted old lady living in the
neighborhood of the patient informed
him that if he would cut the affected
nerve with pair of scissors or knife it
would give him no further trouble. It
so happens that the superobital ner e is
the one which controls the action of the
eyelid, and it further happens that when
man is in liquor, this nerve becomes
paralyzed, and it is this that gives
drunken person such a comical expr es-
sion about the eyes. The neuralgia pa
tient no sooner heard what he supposed
the welcome news from the old lady than
he repaired to his closet and with jack
knife parted in twain the offending
nerve, and he now greets his friends
with his right eye as sober as Quaker
in quarterly meeting, and the left in
highly intoxicated condition. It now
only costs him half as much as it for
merly did to 60 on bender.

stands as to the accuracy of it's statement.
We should say that the idea of thus
raising the cranberry was altogether out
of the question.
The Poultry Monthly, referring to
turkey-raising, makes this substantial
statement: 1t does not cost any more,
or much more, to raise pound of tur-
key than a pound of hen flesh. In the
summer they require to be fed less, be-
ing mastery campaigners on their own
account, while in the winter very likely
their nervous disposition demands some
what more stimulus then other fowls,
If well fed, they do not require AS care
ful housing as the hen, although it is p
good policy to make them roost indoors :
but left to themselves, they prefer to
weather out the widest storm in the
tree tops. Finally, when brought to
market, their flesh is worth much more
than that of the hen, so that, other
things being equal, it is economy to keep
them instead"
The National Live Stock Journal i'm
presses upon feeders the necessity of
making beet in the shortest practicable
time to reach the highest profit. This
system must be followed much more
closely in the future than in the past
tor as our beef export to Europe pro-
crosses, it will compel the best mode of
feeding to insure success. Prices are
not likely to be above an average of
cents per pound, live weight, for the
best cattle, and any other grade will
never pay to ship. The only possible
profit will lie in maturing young beef /;
and to do this successfully, the warm
season must be worked to the best ad-
vantage. No feeder should be satisfied
with less average growth of his steers,
during the grazing season, than two and
one-half pounds per day; and to do this,
there must be no period of short feed
no period of scant Dutrition.
