Recently Judge LOGAN Il. BLECKLEY took
his leave of the Georgia Supreme Court, after
serving as and associate justice for five years,
After he had delivered several opinions on
cases which the Court had decided he took
up sheet of paper and read. thcrefrom the
following lines, which were drawn up in the
form of u regular judicial opinion:
In the Matter Of Rest.
BLECKLEY, j.
I. Rest for the hand and brow and breast,
For fingers, heart and brain!
Rest and peace! a long release
From labor and from pain;
Pain of doubt, fatigue, despair
Pain of darkness everywhere,
And seeking light in vain!
2. Peace and rest! Are they the best
For moltals here below?
Is soft repOse from work and woes
a bliss for men to know?
Bliss of time is bliss of toll:
No bliss but this from sin and soil,
Does God permit to grow.
Judge BLECKLEY read the lines slowly and
with emphasis. BY order Of the Court they
were spread on the minutes in honor of their
author.

What is to be done with Potter county. An
exchange SAYS: "At'a recent term of the
quarter sessions court of Potter county, Pa,
the District Attorney informed the Court
that he had no indictments or bills to present
10 the grand jury; the Sheriff also stated that
he had no criminals in the prison; the directors
of the poor reported that they had no one to
keep at the county's charge or expense"
Potter county has had no liquor license for
% years, and this is given as the cause for
the lack of court business,

The Sheep Fold.
Shirt Of Kansas.

Some way or other agriculture
seems incomplete without flock of
sheep. They are essential to the
thiek-set longevity of the old grass
land, and all the world over and in
olden times they were esteemed as
most important and in
the most improved ag-
ricultural country in England they
are cherished by every farmer, from
the highest to the lowest. The wool
is one of the incomes which cannot
be dispensed with, and the flocks are
so managed that the tegs cut heavier
and more valuable fieeces than the
older sheep; in fact, teg feeces in
England not only weigh 80 per cent
heavier than those of ewes, but make
10 or more per cent higher prices.
There is no excuse in the west for
the absence of sheep on every farm.

How to Test Cows.
Prairie Farmer.

The difficulty of establishing the
value of each cow in the dairy is not
as great as is generally supposed. The
method usually employed is to weigh
each cows milk upon spring scale
as soon as it is drawn, and before
pouring it into the general receptacle.
A email record book, containing the
name of each cow, and columns for
date, weight of milk, ETC., renders it 8
comparatively easy matter. To get
a fair average through the year one
weeks trial for each month is snffi-
cient. In making tests for butter it
is only necessary to set each cows
milk separately and churn it by itself,
which will give the yield of butter for
a certain quantity of milk.

An Agricultural Creed.

1. Do not cultivate poor land. 1t
is feeble mother which can give no
sustenence. Isl
2. If your land is poor, you must
limit the area of cultivation to your
ability to manure-let it be ever so
little-and you will be the gamer by
it. 1880 -,
8. Exert yourself to produce ma
nure on the farm. Such manure is tie
-four which makes the Loaf, and a
commercial fertilizer is only 1eaven
to it. Home made manures cost
some labor and but little money,
whlle commercial fertilizers will
brIug you N debt, and are a kind OF
food which mother earth can not en-
lreiy rely a. d fatten upon. We are
not Their enemy, hut active friend,
snen jndiciously used, and can be
had without 100 great strain on tue
srmer's credit. 30
4. Bring to the aid of your manure
,nle green fallow crops, and try to
.,lothe the bosom OF mother earth with
The green .verdure of grass, from
which 1--we stock can be fed.
5. Keep as much stock as can be
fed well for this ad Is to the manure
ollie and their increase, and q few fat
carcasses afford big interest on the
investment.
6. Diversity crops as much as
possible, and do not rely on one
staple. This will make your manure
and labor pay a profit in some places
when they fail in others.
z. Manure manure T! manure and
as before suggested, rely on the farm
principally to produce it. 1t will
'put money 10 your pocket
8. "No grass, no stock, no stock,
no manure. No manure; no per

GENERAL GARFIELD'S CHURCH.
A Movment on Foot to Build a New
a Church Edifice.
NetiopaI RpnrhIicau

The work of raising funds where
with to erect large and handsome
church for the christian denomina-
ton in this city has been COM
menced. The general missionary
board of that church, whose head
quarters is in Cincinnati, acting in
harmony with the official board of the
Vermont-avenue. church in this city,
has appointed Joseph Smith, jr., of
Cincinnatti, leasurer of the fund to
be raised, and Thomas w. Phillips, of
New Castle, Pa, the general agent.
The Christian Standard, the organ of
that denomination, in it's last issue
contains general announcement to
the Diciples of Christ in the United
States that the present appears to be
an suspicious time to realize long
felt and general desire for suitable
house of worship in Washington, D.
c., the capitol of the nation-a house
not extravagant, but creditable to the
brotherhood. g - a
A meeting Of the official board of
the Vermont-avenue church has been
held to discuss the subject. 1t was
decided to leave the plan of building
and the raising Of fluids to the gener-
al society. Ifsufficient funds could
be raised they would select s. site
near Thomas circle and commence
building in the spring. They, will
build free of debt-that is, pay as
they go, and enter their new church
without the milestone ola heavy debt
hanging around their necks. The
raising of from $4,000 to 100000
will probably decide the location in
favor of Thomas circle. Less than
the first-named amount will cause
them to build on the site of their
church.

%pretentious as that Of q country squire. The
palace itself is certainly not more imposing
than a we'll appointed French chateau, or a
f~rst-rate highland ~shooting-box. But the
Prince himself does not appear to dispense
with any Of the forms and ceremonies which
usually surround a ruling Prince. We were
ushered into his Highness's presence by an
aide-de-camp, who acted his part Of chamber
lain with great elegance Of department. And
on our way to the audience chamber, on the
first floor, we passed, drawn up in kind of
review order, a number Of stalwart body
guards of the Prince, each standing on the
step of the staircase with a drawn sabre in
his hand. AS soon, however, as our formal
introduction to the Prince was ended, we
were placed at our ease by the frankness and
cordially of his manner. The Hospodar,
who is one of the largest men in his domin-
ions, standing considerably over six feet and
with almost herculean depth Of chest, was
dressed in the national costume, with a re-
volver in his girdle, but without Kappa on
his head. Unlike the rest of his race, he
wears whiskers with his mus,ache, and these
are trimmed 10 such a manner as to give his
somewhat swartby features q distinctively
Spanish look. These facial characteristics
are very faithfully reproduced, as becomes
an ardent admirer of bis chief, in the features
Of M. Popovic, the Prince's secretary. The
Prince-the first Of his dynasty-was sent
for education 10 Paris instead of st. Peters
burg, speaks French perfectly, and is more
over, well acquainted with German, italian,
and Russian. We who are more familiar with
TeutoDic than any other foreign language,
were soon engaged in conversation with the
Prince upon his dearest topic-the welfare
and DEVELOPMENT of his C ,untry.

at the Detroit House of Correction who
seemed determined to have his own way at
every cost. In twenty-fours he was in dis
grace for ObstreperOus conduct, and he WAS
NO sooner out Of one scrape than he got
himself into another. He was locked up,
tied up and punished in different ways, and
the other day when he committed some new
breach of discipline the deputy called him
into the office in despair and began:
''John, how long nave you been here"
"Two months"
Chow many times have you been pun

"About a dozen times, I guess

You are too lazy to catch the disease, and too
mean to let anybody else nave what you can't.

"Say, deputy" replied the man, as his
eyes began TO bulge, ''this is the first time

III sucn q way as to carry out the idea of the
tour seasons. Sometimes the dresses are so
CHOSEN that they favor somewhat of a fancy
costumes. At 9 recent marriage, some pretty
White, or rather cream, silk dresses. with a
brocade OF pale green and blue upon them,
worn with silver ornament, and straw hats.
OSTRICH plumes, were selected by the eight
bridesmaids; two intending to carry out the
idea Of the woodland, with ivy, wild hyacinth,
blue-bells, and wood anemone; two the mea-
dow, with cowslips, daisies, and grass; two
the %rlvulet, yellow calthas, and for-get-me-
lots and Watercress; two the lake, white and
pink Waterlilies, buds, and foliage.
The skirts Of the short winter dresses are
more frequently made of velvet or plush, and
others of shirred satin. The polonaises and
basques worn with these are of a different
color and material. This economical fashion
Is also exceedingly pretty and coquettish, as
well as convenient, as the same skirt may be
adapted to several different polonaises or
basques. Some of the new jerseys are adj
mirably suited to these beautiful skirts, as
they are made Of much more expensive ma
