THREE GENERATIONS.

Blushing and bright through her messy veil,
a bursting bud, to the light She presses;
Heaven hangs i'll her trembling spheres of dew,
And the sunshine wOOS and the breeze CarCSseS
Petal by petal her wealth apart
To search the depths Of her honcyed heart.
But widely blown to the ardent noon
With her damask dyes is this perfect blossom,
The soul of her inner Sweetness barred
Where the wild hCc murmurs above her bosom,
While summer stays on her royal flight
To breath the breath of that full delight.
Yet pressed in yOn book one pale rose lies
Fair a. the rest, with all their llushcs;
For sometimes the spices that once She burned
In dUwnlight and dew and the bloom OF her biushC
Come back, as her withCred leaflets stir
To think how the nightingale sang to her!

Chip manure is considered by many as a
prolific source of scab in potatoes, on ac-
count of the number of worms and mag
gots and their larv@ found in the decaying
matter. Tho spores of fungi exist to a
great extent in the decayed wood, which
produces fungi on the potatoes, inducing
rot. One farmer who used bran as a fertill
zer on potatoes alongside of another plot
Of land where chip manure was used, found
the tubers under the former treatment
perfectly smooth and entirely free from
fungus and rot, while where the chip
manure has been used the potatoes were
badly eaten with worms; great deal of
fungus existed upon some of the tubers,
while many others were rotten.

Bio FIGUREs.-Even those familiar with
the enormous sales of the vibrator" Sep
arators manufactured by Nichols, Shepard
q Co., will be surprised to know that if all
the Separators manufactured by them were
set up ready for work and placed in line
just touching each other, the line would be
more than 100 miles long, and if to this
are added the Engines and Powers manu-
featured by them, the line would be over
POO miles in length. To ship these ma
chimes, placing one on each car, would re.
quiro $4,000 cars, making $50 trains of 20
cars each. With such demand it is easy
to see why the firm carries in stock 10000
900 feet of the choicest air-seasoned lumber.
Tho reason of this success is the fact that
the vibrator" is perfectly simple, does
not easily get out of order, lasts the longest,
and does the best and quickest work. Every
article used i'll its manufacture is the very
best that money can buy, and as the firm
have an abundance of capital, they buy for
cash and therefore sell at price no higher
than other parties charge for poor article
OF course, no one would buy any thresh,
ing machinery without first examining

Buckwhcat is a very peculiar plant
While most other plants require careful
preparation of the soil to insure their
growth, this one will prepare the soil not
only for itself but for other crops, by pull.
verizing it, if it is hard or tough. Hence
one great value of buckwheat. When a
crop of buckwheat has been removed from
the ground, the soil will be very nice and
mellow. 1t has a considerable value as
a green manure, especially upon poor soils,
soils that are too poor to give a good
growth of clover. Of course it is not as
valuable as clover, for fertilzing purposes,
and should never be preferred to it, when
it is to grow a good cropof clover.- Western

Mr.. Abram 5. Hewitt is unwilling to act
as political pacincator in behalf Of the Irving
Hall faction, he is reported rs saying. for
two reasons (D His health is too poor
to stand the strain of political excite
ment, and (2) it would be useless TO attempt
to make terms with Tammany. 1t is to be
regretted that Mr. Hewitt's health is i'm
paired, hut it is not so feeble as 10 prevent
his seeing that Tammany cannot be bargained
with or builied, that its position ia impregna-
bic, that it asks nothing but what is right,
and will submit to nothing wrong. There is
no ground for compromise, 40 middle course
to be suggested, so long rs Mr.. Hewitt ard
the other agents of Mr.. rilden insist that the
latter shall be nominated for the Presidency
and will degrade the Democratic organiza-
tons of this city and State into personal
machine for his sole benefit What Mr..
Hewitt saws about the weakness Of Tam
many comes from his wishes rather than his
wisdom, and betrays blindness which moth
ing butintense prejudice could have caused.
He thinks Tammany cannot control over
5000 votes So the friends of Mr.. Tilden
said last fail, and they filled the Stae
with jeering predictions Of the utter
breakdown of that organization. But
1856 Democratic voters gave the lie to their
prophecies, and sent the emphatic declar-
alton ringing through the land that
Samuel j. Tilden could never again carry the
State of New York To-day Tanmany
stands on the strong ground of the National
Democracy, by the side of the Democrats of
every State in the Union, pledged to the sup
port of Democratic principles and to contrib
ute to the utmost to the success of the
Democratic cause. And Tammany is unit
in its determination to put down personalism
in politics, and smash the machine by which
one man and his agents are trying to clutch
nomination which cannot be obtained by
thir and honorable means. Mr.. Hewitt says
ltis un-Democratic not to agree to bind one
fselfbeforehand to the action of convention.

What Shall We Drink :

The editor of the Science discusses at
length the value of the different articles
of food which generally enter into daily
consumption. Chocolate, he says, from
its large proportion of albumen, is the
most nutritive beverage, but at the same
time, from its quantity of fat, the most
difficult to digest. Its aromatic SUBJ
stances, however, strengthen the diges-
ton. A cup of chocolate is an excellent
restorative and invigorating even for
weak persons, provided their digestive
organs are not too delicate. Cardinal
Richelieu attributed to chocolate his
health and hilarity during his later
years. Tea and coffee do not afford this
advantage Albumen in tea leaves, and
legumin in coffee berries, are represented
in very scanty proportions. The praise
of tea and coffee as nutritive substances
is, therefore, hardly warranted Tea
and coffee, though of themselves not
difficult of digestion, tend to disturb the
digestion of albuminous substances by
precipitating them from their dissolved
state. Milk, therefore, if mixed with tea
or coffee, is more difficult of digestion
than if taken alone, and coffee alone
without cream promotes digestion after
dinner by increasing of the dissolving
Juices. The volatile oil of coffee and the
e~mpyreumatic and aromatic matters of
chocolate accelerate the circulation,
which, on the other hand is Gained by
tea. Tea and coffee both excite the ac-
tivity of the brain and nerves. Tea, it
is said, increases the power of digestine
the impressions we have received, creates
a thorough meditation, and, in spite Of
the movements of thoughts, permits the

a Real Pleasant Evening Party.

A special from Fort Robinson, Neb., says the
mail-carrier brings news from Camp Sheridan
of q horrible carnival of blood in a low den of
~iniquity near that post, in which two men were
killed, two dangerously, perhaps fatally wounded
and several others bruised. Last Saturday
night there was a large attendance Of cowboys
and soldiers in the place; and half a dozen low
women. Poor whisky and lively dancing soon
caused bad blood. 1t began by q drunken
musician brandishing a revolver and threaten
ing to shoot a bartender for swindling him.
A dozen cowboys drew revolvers simultaneous
ly, a shot was fired, and one of them, Ed. Col
lard, fell MORALLY wounded, having shot himE
self while drawing. Tn dance was resumed
twenty minutes after his body had been re-
moved. Jim Joyce and a desperate named
Page soon got into a rough-and-tumble fight,
however, over the proprietorship in a girl
known as Beayer-tooth Nell. 1t ended
by Page shooting Joyce fatally. Sergeant
Green, of Company NJ, Fifth Cavalry, attempt
ing to disarm Page, received a shot which neces-
STATED the amputation of his leg. He will
probably die. The soldiers at once retaliated
by employing their revolvers into the Page
crowd as they rushed out on the prairie. The
women, scantily dressed, here returned from
the rooms to which they had withdrawn, and
ran screaming about the place, and the scenes
that followed battle description. The melee
ended in a rough-and-tumble fight between the
cowboys and the boys in blue, which would
have resulted in a terrible loss of life but fol
the timely arrival of milirary from the post
One of the females had al eye knocked Out
during the melee, while two cowboys, names
unknown, were badly wounded. The murderer
Page, is in the guard-house, and the soldier
threaten to lynch him.
