THE. GARFfELD-M GREY LETTER.

The letter, which it is now positively
asserted was written by James A. Gar
Geld to H. L. Morey, Employers Union,
Lynn, Massachusetts,, is now the all
absorbing topic of the campaign. 1t
has driven the bloody shirt, sectional
ism, the tariff question and all other
real or false issues out of the campaign.
In California and Nevada it has taken
the place of all other questions, and the
Workingmen in San Francisco have
issued manifestoes declaring that no
friend of the laboring classes should
support Garfield for President. In New
York, Massachusetts, and other Eastern
States the feeling is no less intense.
They have had some experience with
tla Chinese and they are sick, of the
Mngolians. According to. dispatches
dhom New York, the greatest excite
nlent prevails there, and it has been in
areasing since Judge Noah Davis, of
the Supreme Court. discharged the
publisher of Truth, in which the. letter
was first published, thereby showing
tdat in his opinion, according to the
evidence adduced, the letter is genuine.
The examination of Philip, a writer for
Truth, is progressing slowly, the object
of the prosecution being to present the
defense from proving that Garfield
wrote the letter, and TINS keep the
genuineness of the letter matter Of
some doubt until after the election.
The assertion that there was no such
organization as the Employers Union,
and no such person as II. L. Morey in
Lynn, has been proven false beyond all
doubt by the. evidence of Morey S
mother, the doctor who attended his
wife, and several others. 1t is also
shown that. the stamps on the letter is
the same as.that used in Washington at
the date, the letter was. mailed. The
action of the prosecution in attempting
10 prevent the defense from showing,
as they claim they can show, that the
letter is genuine, also looks.suspicious,
and indicates that an attempt will be
made to keep back the evidence of the
defense until after. the election i;

Cincinnati Gazette: The reason Why We
are confident that Garfield will be elect
ed President Of the United States in Novem-
Der, 1850, Is because We have m abiding
confidence in the patriotism and good COM
mon sense Of the American people. The
people who suppressed the rebellion and
saved the government are not fools enough
to put in power the party that rebelled and
sought to destroy the government. We
will admit the gray to equal privileges,

fruits Of their victory. This is the main
plank in the platform Upon which canvass

The Norwegian Horse.

THE horse was one of the prettiest.
most docile creatures imaginable. But
l had done with it. loved the animal,
and like the Irishman with his COW,
could | have sent it over to England in
a letter, it should have bid long fare
we'll to its mountain life. 1t was graz
ing quietly about hundred yards away.
Then, catching sight of us, it knew well
enough what the invasion meant, and
pricking up its ears and arching its
neck, gave a slight neigh and began
gently trotting up and down, it's fine
white name and long tail futtering in
the breeze. 1t answered the masters
call as obediently as dog, and followed
gently at his heels up to the cottage.
We were soon ready and once more on
the way. Now began long, toilsome
climb, which lasted until seven O'Clock
at night. l had never yet gone through
any thing of the kind on horseback;
am not sure that I should care to at
tempt it again. Without ever encoun-
tering actual danger-thanks to the
sure-footedness of the horse-we were
often in what appeared such imminent
peril that more than once regretted
the adventure and devoutly wished N.Y.
self back again. For the pedestrians
there was not even the appearance of
risk, beyond the possibility of stones loos-
ening from the heights and rolling down
upon them. From the very beginning
| noticed how wonderfully the horse
plotted himself over the rough places
and through impossible difficulties; ex-
ercising skill and discrimination far
greater than that of his rider. At length
| gave it up to him and allowed him to
take his own course. The sagacity of
the animal was marvellous; the manner
in which he would pause moment at a
troublesome spot, seem to pick out his
way mentally, and then boldly taking it,
never hesitate until it was OVERTIME

Bicycling.

Bicycling is a fascinating sport. II
gives man an opportunity to dress and
act more nearly like circus rider than
any other amusement tolerated by good
society. When man gets the bicycle
fever he loses interest in all the other
concerns of life and will not even aban-
don his machine to look at a dogfght.
The Hon. Eggleston Egg was victim
of the craze and had it BAD, but after he
lad used up several square yards of
court-plaster and gallon of arnica, in
repairing the damages of single
handed combat with his iron steed, he
found that a bicycle was difficult thing
to handle and that he should have to
call in help. He therefore employed as
his assistant Mr.. Gonus, gentleman of
great athletic development, who con-
sented for consideration to run behind
the machine and hold it up, while Mr..
Egg rode and turned the forward wheel.
And they used to go tearing about the
streets, much to the alarm of pedestri-
ans, though they never did any worse
damage than to break the back of a dog
which charged upon them and got him
self half through the forward wheel.
The trouble came when one day they
started down long hill, and got to GO
ing so fast that Mr.. Gonus was unable
to hold back even pound; indeed, he
could barely keep his hands on the ma
chine. At the foot of the hill was
swamp, and Gonus saw that if their
speed wasn't checked they must go into
it. As they reached the foot of the hill,
he, with a mighty effort, succeeded in
thrusting his foot into the back wheel of
the machine, hoping his weight would
check its speed. But it didn't. He was
lifted up and hurled somersault clear
over Mr.. Eggs head, and dove head
down into the swamp. The next in
slant the latter gentleman, who had
during the ride done nothing but wildly
call upon Gonus to stop the machine,
was plunged with the bicycle into the
swamp beside Mr.. Gonus. They fshed
themselves out and went home through
back streets, and as Mr.. Gonus stated that
800 wouldn't induce him to go within
four rods of the bicycle again, Mr.. Egg
has given up riding it, and will here
after transport himself about in human
manner. Boston Post.

that Judge Affidavy Martin, late of Ala

1t was voted to hear the address, and

troduced, the Judge stood upon the plat

Cultivation in Hot, Dry Weather.

THE stirring of the soil in the dryest,
hottest weather is very useful. One
may readily perceive this on an exam.
ination, in very dry weather, of the soil
of garden or field which has been fire.
quently stirred and that under sod or
on road. The former will be found
moist, from the surface downward.
while the latter will be hard and per.
fectly dry. On the return of wet
weather the condition of the cultivated
soil is favorable to the immediate alb
sorption of the rain, while the hard soil
by its dryness and hardness repels the
water, which flows over and away from
it without moistening it. This is a fact
that may be studied with advantage, for
one never learns any thing so well and
remembers it so permanently as whep
he has personally Investigated and seen
it for himself.

Of course it was now plain that
Straight was the victim of swindle.
For several minutes he cried like a child,
declaring that he was a ruined man,
and that his wife and children were on
the verge of starvation. He said that
he expected something was wrong when
the man said he would wrap the money
up for him and went into the other room
to do it, but ON second thought he re-
membered that he was in big city and
he was satisfied there could be no fraud
there: He did not think the police
would allow dishonest people to live in
cities.
When he returns home he will have
travelled 300 miles by rail.
As the poor man had no money, Capt.
Lee made arrangement to have him
transported to his home free. Towards
three O'Clock in the afternoon Straight
began to recover from his disappoint-
ment and excitement. Hunger grew
upon him and his wants were reported
to the Captain, who provided for him,
and at the above hour the man was seen
in Washington Park near the Four
Courts enjoying handful of sausage
and bread, all oblivious to the din and
confusion of the city, of the passers-by,
and of the little birds that came around
to gather the crumbs. He was probably
digesting two things at once-his sau-
sage and his experience.

IN A HATFIELD.

BEFORE the mowers sweeping scythe
The dewy grasses bend and FALL
A group of children, gay and blithe,
Amid the hay keep carnival;
While rising high in azure sky,
The morning sun shines lovingly.
The flowers and grasses slowly fade,
And DER their wreaths the children sigh;
A maiden sees in evry blade
Emblems of hopes but born to die;
Yet in the sky, still rising high,
The golden sun shines lovingly.
The mower works with haggard eyes,
For bitter grief is in his breast;
A lark flies up with startled cries
The scythe has swept away her nest;
Yet, risen high in deep blue sky,
The sun still shines ON lovingly.
From ivied church the mourners go
(The sun is sinking in the wesD;
The mower Death has laid one low,
With fading flowers to be at rest;
Yet in the sky, mid smile and sigh,
The sun shines ever lovingly.

THIs is an easy way of detecting the
purity or adulteration of a sample of
wine: Dip small sponge into the wine
to be tested. Place the sponge then
into saucer, the bottom of which is
covered with small quantity of water.
If the wine is pure; it will take from a
quarter to half an hour before the water
in the saucer becomes colored, but if
the wine is not pure, the coloring of the
water takes place Immediately.
