SPRINGFIELD, Mo, Nov. Ii, 1880.
To the Editor of the Free Press and Times;
Monday evening last, at the close OF the
Congregational Triennial Council, at St.
Louis. 10 delegates, about dozen of whom
were accompanied by their wives, started
for Springfield, Mo, and the lnIian Terri

ton of President n. J. Morrison Of Drury

The Canadian press is somewhat exercised
over the exodus of citizens of the Dominion
across the line 10 settle in our Northwestern
States and Territories. The Toronto Globe
notes the fact as one of serious significance
that during the year ending with June 30th,
30. iS9 Canadian settlers entered the United
States at the ports comprised in the district
of Huron to take up their permanent abode
in the Republic, and that the emigration has
since been going on with increasing volume.
1t attributes the movement to the prevailing
Canadian policy which has had deadcn-
ing effect on the business of the country and
retarded prosperity"

GEN. GEANT predicted that the election of
General Garfield 10 the Presidency would re-
suit IN breaking up the Democratic party in
the South. That the disintegration has COM
menced is indicated by the changed tone of
the Southern newspapers and leading men in
that section. Among those who have recent
ly spoken is Captain George Washington,
who was chairman Of the last Democratic
State Convention Of Tennessee. He says
the Democracy must unload the dreary and
Improbable traditions of dead eras, and take

THERE is another side 10 immigration
hitherward, besides the increase in ropula-
ton ii gives this country. and that is the
money it adds 10 our resources. The London
EcOnomis, calculates that not less than 49,
900, 900 in cash will be- added TO the wealth
of the United States by the immigrants Of
this year. 1t figures that each immigrant
brings so, very small estimate, as great
number have brought on an average good
deal more than $40 per head. The Ec0Ho-
mist reckons that the immigrants of the fiscal
year just closed were made up in this way :
Males betwecd II and 30, &c per cent; males
over 40, per cent males under 10, 10 per
cent females over Is, IS per cent females
under Is, per cent. Taking the commonly
accepted table as to the average duration of
active life, and allowing that each active
workman adds Sl25 annually to the wealth
of the country, and each female onc-fourth
of that sum, the immigrants who have ar
rived during the year viii make an actual or
potential addition 10 the wealth Of the coun-
Try of $500, OOO. 600 per annum

SPRINGFIELD, MO-,
is the principal town of Southwestern Mis-
souri,. 1t lies on the plateau of the Ozark
Mountains, SO called, along the ridge of which
runs the line of the st. Louis and San Fran
cisco Railroad, though the cxcursionists from
Vermont saw nothing that they would call Il
mountain, or hardly hill. This plateau is
about 600 feet above the ocean. The town
has some 5000 inhabitants and is becoming
quite cotton mart. Last year 5000 bales,
raised in the warmer region forty miles
south. were marketed here, and the coming
year not less than 10, 900 bales will be brought
in By wagon. Springfield was the scene of
stirring events in the war for the Il MON, and
was in turn occupied by both armies.
Nine miles from here the battle of Wilson's
Creek was fought, in which the brave
Gen. Nathaniel Lyon with s, 900 men attack
ed Ben Mccullough with 1900, in an en-
trcnched camp, and was repulscd with heavy
loss, and in which, while leading bayonct
charge of an Iowa regiment, Gen. Lyon WAS
killed. The house in which his body lay be
fore burial, its walls still showing the marks
oil rebel cannon shot, Is still pointed out, i'll
the village. II was here that the first and
perhaps most famous cavalry charge of the
war was made, in October, 1861, when Maj
or ZlEonyi, at the head of 200 Union caval-
ry, charged through II force of ten times his
number into and through the streets of
!
Springfield. Over the spot where Far
banks Hall, OF Drury College, now stands, u
line oil rifle pits ran; and here and hereabouts
were extensive camps of both armies. Here
are two large cemeteries. The National
cemetery contains the graves OF 2.OOO Union
dead, and is kept in neat order by the Gov
ernment. In the other 1000 Confederate
soldiers were buried. II is wholly neglected,
and with its sunken graves and grounds
grown up TO weeds, looks indeed like the
graveyard of lost cause.

The Much Married .

II is usually considered noteworthy cir
cumstance for man or woman to have been
married three times; but Of old this num-
Der would have been thought little OF. st.
Jerome mentions woman that has married
her twenty-second husband, who, In his
turn, had married twenty-five wives-surely
an experienced couple. A woman named
Elizabeth Maoi, who died at Florence In
176s, had been married TO seven husbands,
all of whom she outlived. She married the
last of the seven at the age Of 10. When Oh
her death bed she recalled the good and bad
,oints of each of her husbands, and, having
impertially weighed them In the balance, ,shc
singled out the fifth as her favorite spouse
and desired that her remains might be buried
near his. The death Of soldier is recorded
in 1884 who had five wives, and his widow,
aged ninety, wept over the grave OF her
fourth husband. The writerwho mentioned
these facts vainly added: a. The said soldier
was much married" There is an account ~
gentleman who was married to four wives
and lived to be one hundred and fifseen years
old. When he died he left fifteen children N
alive and well, some Of said children being
from three to four score years old. A gen
tleman died at Bordeaux in 1772 who had
been married sixteen times. In July, l76ss,,
a couple we're living in Essex who had been
married ninety-one years, the husband being
one hundred and seven and the wife one
hundred and three years Of age. AT tht

SATURN'S RINGS.
Appearance Of the Planet and its Satei-
lises through . Telescope.
Providence Journal.

. Providence Journal.
We had view of Saturn q few evenings
since through the fine telescope In Mr.. Sea-
graves private observatory that will long be
remembered for its exceeding beauty. The
night was rarely favorable for star gazing,
the definition perfect and the atmosphere Sc
rene. The picture is one of SURPRISING love
illness, the most superb telescope scene in
the heavens. The orb Is resplendent in col
oring, blueish at the poles, pale yellow else
where, crossed by two creamy central belts,
and flecked with spots that suggest scuddins
clouds. There is no appearance Of 2 fatten-
ed disc, but the rounded outlines of sphere,
seeming about the size of the full moon,
stand out in bold relief against the azure
blackness of the sky. Around this softly
glowing center extend the wondrous rings,
encircling arms and cradling the planet In
their protecting embrace. Every detail Of
the complex ring system Is sharply defined
and vividly painted on the celestial canvas.
The outer and inner rings, the dusky ring,
the space between the outer and inner rings,
and even the divisions in the outer ring, are
plainly visible, while six of the eight moons
of the planet dot the dark sky with points oi
golden glow. The six moons we see-one o.
them is larger than Mercury-circle around
their primary within an extreme span Of four
million miles. The beautiful rings lie with
in the path of the nearest moon, and span 2
space of about 10000 miles. The narrow,
dark space between the outer and inner rings
is 1,7OO miles broad, and the dusky, or third
ring extends 900 miles within the inner on
second ring.

KATIE'S ANSWER.

Och. Katie's rogue, IL is thrue,
But her eyes, like the sky, are so blue,
An her dimples so swate,
An her ankles so nate,
She dazed, an she bothered me, too,
Till one mornin' wint for a ride,
Whin, demure as bride, by my side,
The darlint, she sat,
Wild the wickedest hat
Meath purity girls chin liver tied.
An INV heart, arrah, thin how 1t bate,
For my Kate looked s0temptin' an 'swat'
Wild cheeks like the roses,
An all the red posies
That grow in her garden so nate,
But sat Just as mute as the dead,
Till she said, wild toss other head,
If I'd known that to-day
Yed have nothin' to say,
I'd have gone wild my cousin, instead
Thin felt myself grow very bowld;
For knew she'd not scold If towld
OF the love in my heart,
That would never depart,
Though lived to be wriukled and old
An said, If dared to do so,
I'd lit 90 NV the baste, an I'd throw
Both arms around her waist.
An be stalin' a taste
Nv them lips that are coaxin' me So"
Then she blushed more Elegant red
As she said, widout raisin' her head,
An her eyes lookin' down
Meath her lashes so brown,
Would you like me to drive, Mister Ted!'

The 90 Mile Race.
Inter Ocean.

Inter ocean
The 20-mile race between Miss Pinneo, OF
Colorado, and Miss Jewett, of Minnesota, on
the Jockey Club course, on Thursday, re-
suited In favor of the former. In starting,
Miss Pinneo got little the best Of it, and
maintained the lead until the fifth mile, when
a slow horse and loose saddle put her be-
behind. The positions were unchanged un-
til the 18th mile was entered on, when Miss
Pinneo, by her rapid change of horses and
vigorously urging the horses to run fast,
gained on her opponent, and on the 10th mile
passed her at the half-mile pole, and the two
had a neck-and-neck race on the 20th round,
Miss Pinneo's horse coming in ahead by not
over foot or two In advance of Mss Jewett.
As the positions were changed daring the
race the spectators Justify cheered. Miss
Pinneo's rapid movement from one horse to
another was noticeable feature Of the race.
Twenty miles were made and the riders
changed horses at the end Of each mile. The
20 miles were made by Miss Pinneo in 20
minutes and 20 seconds, and by Miss Jewett
in 53 minutes and 29s seconds.

SIXTEEN AND Sixty.

And in flies Bessie with tangled hair,
" I'm going to be married, oh, grandmama; ;
I'm going to be married! Ha! ha! ha! hal"
Oh, grandma smooths out her apron string;
"Do you know, my dear, 'Tis a solemn
thing"
"1is sOlemner not TO, grandmama;
Pm going TO be married. Ha! ha! ha! hal"
Then grandma looks through her sixty years,
And sums up womans hopes and fears;
Six of em living and two OF 'em dead;
Grandpa helpless and tied TO his bed.
Nowhere TO live when the house burned
down:
Years Of fighting with old mother Brown;
Stockings TO darn and bread TO bake,
Dishes TO wash and dresses to make.
But then, the music of pattering feet,
Grandpa's kisses, 80 soft and sweet,
Song and prattle the livelong day,
Joy and kisses and songs Away.
Oh, grandma smooths out her apron string,
And gazes down at her wedding ring,
And still she smiles as she drops tear:
"'Tis solemner not to. Yes, my dear"

THE LETTER O.
its Prominence In the Names OF Great
g.. Men. '..- ..-.
European Mail.

AuTopCsAN
It Is curious to note how some particular
letter of the alphabet pushes itself to the
front, every now and then, to the exclusion
of its classmates. Il Just at present g rules
the situation. Gladstone, Grevy, Gambetts,
Gortschskoff, Guibert and Garfield; these
tarethe names that most catch the mind when
observing the progress Of events A short
time ago b held the supremacy, by help OF
such puissant representatives as Bismarck ana
Beacons6eIdsi No other letter has achieved
any particular prominence of late years, nor
ID it easy to predict the most likely successor
of the present antocrat. Some will think the
chances Of II promising, so far as an English
reputation goes. Z In Harrington and Har-
court h, has two capable champions certainly
but 30 has G in Childers and Chamberlain.
Or II q Conservative reaction takes place 5
would come;to the front with Salisbury and
Smith, even II Stafford Northcote was barred
by reason Of the surname davinga different
initial. Schouvaiof, too, by that time may
be at the head of affairs in Russia, and the
hearty welcome given by Europe 70 the ap-
pointment Of NJ. st. Hilaire indicates q pos
sibility that his name may come greatly to
the front In connection with French politics.
Il would seem, therefore, that now triumph
ant G has most to dread from 8, as no other
letter possesses 50 many strong representa-
tives. o The Globe Is inclined, however, TO
pin It's faith on the prowess of B. Its two
champions are, IL says, far and away the most
formidable. Prince Bismarck, we are told,
still holds unquestioned sway in Central
Europe, and although the West no longer
has the benefit Of Lord Beaconsfeld's guild
ance, the good work he did while in power,
our contemporary Is convinced, will create
full tide Of national gratitude before many
years elapse. .-a-"on s'-'." ".To7 1na
