Victoria ON Her Throne.

Z Her Majesty acknowledges the grave
greeting Of her lieges by scarcely more
than glance of the eye. The head
bent slightly, perhaps, but am not
sure. She, too, walks slowly; there is
no vulgar hurry about any part of the
business. As she rounds the corner of
the dais her face is turned full toward
our gallery. II is the business of court
iers to say that the Queen looks always
well. For my part, thought she had
grown gray since last I saw her, and
that the lines of the temples and about
the mouth were cut deeper than ever.
It can never have been more than q
comely face, and there is nothing,
strictly speaking, in its contour, and
nothing in the figure which can be
called beautiful or noble. What strikes
you, nevertheless, is the air of author
ity and the air of stern sincerity which
sits upon this royal brow and marks the
least gesture of the Queen. The sad
ness Of the face is profoundly touching;
the dignity with which tbs burden
the all but intolerable burden of her
ife-is borne, appeals to your respect.
She is here, they say, to mark once
more her sympathy with the First Min
ister: of the Crown; and with the party
which, under his guidance, has been
leading this country 80 strange dance
these three years past. But politics are
forgotten in such presence; and any
criticism one has to offer is put decently
aside 80 long as the woman and the
Queen is here.
When she had seated herself upon
the royal robes spread over the throne
which she might have worn one
weuld think-there is again q pause,
almost solemn, and there is time to OBJ
serve the gown which the Majesty of
England has on. The Majesty and
Beauty of England are face to face, for
the Princess sits nearly opposite; and as
the Princess is perhaps the best dressed
woman in the room. SO is the Queen al
most the worst. Her gown is of velvet,
miniver or ermine running down the
skirt and horizontal trimmings to match
about the body. But you need not stop
to look at it; the Koh-i-noor glows in
her corsage, and a miniature crown of
diamonds shines above The stony head.
The Princess Beatrice, in blue velvet,
stands by her mothers side, with traces
of the womanly attractiveness which
belongs to her sister Louise, now reign
ing over the hearts of our Canadian
friends. There was some maneuverin1
with footstools and arrangement Of
trains. and the Queens veil had to be
extricated from the netted work of the
throne. Then the Queen said "Pray,
be seated" and once more came
silence.-G. W. Smalley, in Neu York
Tribune. ~ El-a

The General regarded him for a mo-

said: L" Kirkland, don't you know that

pleasure. He said: Thank you, SIR"
and ran rapidly down stairs. The
General heard him pause for a moment
and then return, bounding two steps at
time. He thought the Sergeant's
taken. The Sergeant stopped at the
white handkerchief" The General
slowly shook his head, saying emphati-
cally, "No, Kirkland, you can't do
that" "All right, sir" he said, /" I'll
take the chances" and ran down with
a bright smile on his handsome coun-
tenance. .,. syn .s..-.- -.-.e,..-.
With profound anxiety he was
watched as he stepped over the wall on
his errand of mercy-Christ-like mercy.
Unharmed he reached the nearest suf-
ferer. He knelt beside him, tenderly
raised the dropping head, rested it
gently upon his own noble breast, and
poured the precious, ife-giving fluid
down the fever-scorched throat. This
done he laid him tenderly down, placed
his knapsack under his head, straight
ened out his broken limb, spread his
overcoat over him, replaced his empty
canteen with q full one, and turned to
another sufferer. By this time his pur-
pose was well understood on both sides,
and the danger was over. From all
parts Of the field arose fresh cries of
"Water, water; for Gods sake, waterr'
More piteous still the mute appeal of
some who could only feebly lift hand
to say, here, too, is life and suffering.
For an hour and half did this min
istering angel pursue his labor Of
mercy, nor ceased to go and return un-
| til he relieved all the wounded on that
| part of the field. He returned to his
post wholly unhurt Who shall say
how, sweet his rest that winters night
beneath the cold stars?
Little remains to be told. Sergeant
Kirkland distinguished himself in battle
at Gettysburg, and was promoted lieu
tenant. At Chickamauga he fell on
the field of battle, in the hour Of victory.
He was but q youth when called away
and had never formed those ties from
which might have resulted q posterity
to enjoy his fame and bless his country;
but he has bequeathed to the American
youth-yea, to the world-an example
which digni6es our common humanity.

Commencing with New Crops.

It il wise and well to occasionally
substitute new crops for those that have
long been grown on farms. A change
of crops is favorable to keeping up the
fertility of soils. Farmers who are
poor, especially those who occupy new
farms, are obliged to raise those crops
that can be produced without q large
expenditure Of money. They have not
the means to plant vineyards or hop
vines, or to engage in the culture of
those plants that require expensive
machinery to raise or costly buildings
to protect after they are harvested.
They must generally be content to pro-
duce corn, potatoes and small grains
for several years after they open up
new farms. These produce crops the
same year after they are planted or
sown, so that immediate return is real
lied from them. They may also be
produced most advantageously and
generally the most abundantly from
new land.
After land has been in standard crops
several years, the yield of them becomes
smaller unless extra pains are taken to
supply manures. A change of crops,
therefore, becomes necessary, as the soil
is robbed Of certain elements of fertili-
ty. As farmers become forehanded, they
naturally wish to produce crops that
will yield q larger return than corn,
grain, and potatoes. They know that
q field planted to grapevines or hops
will produce q succession of crops with
comparatively little labor. With cap
itl to purchase machinery, they may
find the raising of broom-corn very
profitable. With means to erect cur
ing-houses, they can make money by
engaging in the culture of tobacco.
Observation shows that the produc-
ton of certain crops Is confined almost
entirely to the older sections of the
country, where the soil has been long
cultivated, and the farmers are gener-
ally wealthy.
Many farmers err in commencing to
raise q new crop with very little knOwl
edge on the subject. They read q glow
ing account of the success of one farmer
and hasten to make small fortune in
the way he did. Perhaps the only in
formation they have on the subject was
derived from q short newspaper article.
They find at the end of the season that
they planted the crop at the wrong
time, in the wrong kind Of soil, and in
the wrong way, and thatthe cultivation
and harvesting were alike wrong. They
spent the season in acquiring informa-
ton that they might have gained had
they purchased . book, consulted q
person who had experience, or hired q
man who was familiar with raising the
crop. Another cause of failure in pro-
ducing new crops is attempting to do
too much the first season. As q rule,
it is best to commence on q small scale
and to increase as one acquires infor-
nation bV experience,

D ON BREAKS.

Mr.. d. f. VerdeDal seems to think
that the New York operators are capable
of taking breaks in the stock market
quite as philosophically as the dealers of
this Coast. In a recent letter to the Bos-
ton Advertiser he says: "If Wall and
Broad streets were to get sick over breaks
in speculative and meritorious railroad
and other securities daily dealt in, what
a business it would be for the doctors and
undertakers. The Pacific Mail for exam
Die. A few weeks ago the shrewdest
spectators, who had inside points
not from Chaffee, Moffat or Wilson-were
climbing for it in the sixties, and scores
on the street knew it would go to seventy
before it stopped. Since then it has been
bought in blocks at $37-a decline, a
break, a shrinkage, call it what you will,
about twenty-seven points, equal to the
worst in Little Pitts. But Wall street
didn't mind it a bit. Jim Keene was po-
lite and agreeable as before the break;
Jay Gould drove his team through the
streets as c~ontentedly as usual; Trenor
W. Park twirled his natty little cane and
advised Theodore Walton as coniden-
TALLY as ever; Hart smiled serenely-all
were ready for the next turn of the wheel.
A few weeks ago elevated railroad secur-
titles were considered away up. Ask Cy-
rus w. Field and d. o. Mills, and they
were gilt-edged and the best of collats in
the market. Since then a break has
come-one Of those unexpected breaks
like Little Pitts-and down goes the Sc
curities twenty-five or thirty points.
How many widows and orphans have been
wrecked on this head the Lord only
knows, but the papers will be crowded
with their walls if they will only print
them. But Pacific Mail will have an.
other day, the elevated railroads will re-
cover their wind, and by-and-by purchas-
ers of mining securities will learn to take
chances philosophically."

Tne Record OF q week as Recorded
I'm che Record Of Last Saturday.
The miners of the Raymond & Ely Com
pany were called to the Office Monday and

the effect that all arrears due the miners to

Tammany Grand Sachem: "What a big,

Tweed, when he asked the outraged tax
payers of New York what they were
going to do about it, exhibited a more
brass impotence than does this fellow,
who has figured all his latter life in the
role of a reformer of our politics. His
intolerance is open and avowed, and his
skin is SC thick that he seems to delight
in the knowledge that his fellow men
regard him as a laundering, willful,
wrong-headed man. His sole claim to
the regard of his party is that he is not
a thief; and because he has not been
caught stealing anything, John Kelly

tory which signalized the cause of Mr..
Tilden at the recent State Convention at
Syracuse, in spite of the power of Tam
many and all his enemies, the New York
Times, the leading Republican organ of
the country, expressed this opinion of
his strength: ain the face of the oppo-
sition of leading Democratic newspapers,
of the protests of so-called Democratic
leaders, and of all the efforts throughout
the State to elect delegates to the State
Convention adverse to the great 'defraud-
ed the result at Syracuse represents
something more than adroit political
management. 1t suggests the existence
of a feeling in the ranks of the party,
which neither its organs nor its leaders,
have been able to modify, that Tilden is,
after all, the strongest candidate who can
be run az a Democratic nominee in this
State"
