Spol ,taueous Forests.

A writer in West Virginia pape
combats the opinion, held by many ar
boriculturists, that an open country is
never converted into a forest through
the operation of natural causes, and, as
establishing the fact that such change
does sometimes occur, brings forward
the case of the Shenandoah Valley.
When first settled, about 100 years ago,
it was on open prairie-like region covered
with tall grass, on which fed herds of
deer, buffalo, elk, etc., and having no
timber, except on ridgy portions Of it,;
but in consequence of its settlement,
the annual fires were prevented, and
trees sprang up almost as thickly and
regularly as if seed had been planted.
These forests, having been preserved by
the farmers, cover now largo part Of
the surface with hard wood trees of SUI
perior excellence. These facts would
also seem to substantiate the theory
that the treeless character of the prairies
of the West is due to the annual
burning Of the grass By the Indians.

THE HoosIER SCHooL.BoY.-Tboso
who have read "The Hoosier School
MASTER" by DIR. Edward Eggleston,
and remember the freshness and bumor
of Its pictures of Western life, will learn
with pleasure that this author has writ
ten story called "The Hoosier School
boy" to be published in st. Nicholas
as serial for the coming year. The
new story is to boys what the earlier
one was to grown-ups dealing with the
trials and adventures of a school-boy in
Hoosierdom thirty years ago, and is
llely to repeat the success of "The
Hoosier School-master," which, besides
its enormous sale in America, has been
published in England, and translated
into Danish, French, and other Euro
pean languages.

In the winter Of 1864, Pony Noun
lain, in the shenandoah Valley, was
full OF game, and Federals and Confed-
s,Ates used to shoot squirrels and trap
rabbits when off picket duty. Care was
taken 10 avoid each other, but many
collisions occurred, and more than one
poor fellows bones are bleaching under
the dark pines to-day. One day q
member of the Sixth Michigan Cavalry
encountered "Johnny" face to face as
they both turned thicket. Both had
guns on their shoulders, and both were
too surprised to speak for some time.
Then the Confederate yelled out
"Say, you Yank, what are you down
here for2"
ITO put down the rebellion"
"You can't do it. no how"
'Bet you ten dollars we can"
'Look here" said the "reb, as he
came closer and put down his gun to
indulge in gestures, "I'll play We a
game of euchre to see which side is CO.
ing to whip"
This was agreed to, and pack Of
cards was produced. The "Yank" got
the first deal and made point. The
''reb" took the second and made q
march. At the next deal the score was
even, and pretty soon they stood four to
four. The play was careful, but the
Oonfederacy had the winning cards,
and as the Johnny" took the last trick
with an ace, he jumped up and yelled :
IT knew i'll knew it Now, Yank,

A Mild Winter Predicted,

A mild winter is being predicted by
some meteorologists. AS the excessive
heat of the summer is attributed to the
increase of solar radiation, and that in.
crease is due to violent disturbances
and the suns atmosphere. where spots
of vast magnitude, following period
of quiescence, began to show them
selves in May, and have continued
since, it is argued that the temperature
in Arctic ATTITUDES is and will continue
to be above the average, and that COM
paratively mild currents of air will be
waited down upon us during the winter
months.

ST. PATRICk'S GENTlLITY.

st. Patrick was gentleman,
A fact there's no disputing,
n saint who did Il noble work,
His time and people suiting.
AS for his driving out the snakes
And toads and other vern,in,
That is Il point which careful minds
Cannot us yet determine.
Perhaps the story may be true,
Though somewhat allcgoric F;
Perhaps the snakes that he expelled
We're partly Inetaphoric.
No doubt no taught his followers
The danger OF four fingers
any subtle stuff i'll which
An unseen serpent fingers.
Twas thus he did a noble work,
And saved tho Celts and Angles
From what some people style to-day
Delirious triangles.
This view gains credence from tho fact
Which every year is printed,
That seldom on st. Patrick's Day
Tho fall of rain is Stinted.
If all will boar these truths in mind,
His day thay'rc suro to keep we'll,
Remembering the gentleman
Who came of decent people,"

OyER-EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO.
IN. y. Democrat

Gen. Simon Cameron is stalwart
Republican, and his remarks, there
fore, on the negro question can not be
regarded as tingcd with Southern ideas
and prcjudices. In an interview the
other day Gen. Cameron expressed his
belief that in many sections of the
South the negroes were being over
educated and he sorosaw Il great dan
ger to the whole country in this. The
negro youth, lie said We're getting
enough education to unfit them for
work and develop their vicious quail
ties and this was converting them
from what they should bc-Iaborers-
into sllarpers. He thought this should
be prevented, is possible, and advised
the North to do as much as it could to
prevent this ovcr-sducation, and par
ticularly he ccunselcd it not to be too
generous in its donation OF assistance TO
negro school and college schemes.
All the plans and ideas for prevent
ing the progress of the negroes seem
to come, just at present, from the Re-
publican side of the House. 1t was
Republican paper which proposed,
some time ago, to diminish the power
of the South by DISTINGUISHING the ne
grocs it is Republican leader who
proposes to take from them the educa-
tional advantages the Southern States
offer.

HOW GARFIELD RECEIVES TIL
SOUTHERN REPUBLICANS.

The story ut Washington is that the
seven representatives in Congress who
assume to represent the Republicans
of the South called IN President Gar
field ON Saturday.
tsWe come," said Judge Houk. of
Tennessee, "to have talk with you,
Mr.. President, touching the distribu-
ton of the patronage in the SOUTH"
elbow much time do you want, gem
tlemen ?" said the President.
"Oh, a half hour, or an hour" was
the response.
GA half hour" said the President,
"with the representatives of 50,000:o OC
of people waiting"
"But," said Spokesman IIous, "you
forget we represent 4OO, 900 people,"
The delegation got ten minutes.
Another story is afioat that the Nir.
ginia Republican representatives
waited upon the President and asked
him If he intended to let Senator Ma
horD control the patronage in Nir-
ginia. "Now that is question:" said
the President, "that I will not permit
myself to be Intercepted about. 1
will refer you to certain senators, how
ever, who know more of the situation
Of affairs touching the Scnate's organi-
zation than do" The Virginia Re
publican congressman walked Off in a
dissatisfied mood.

INDEPENDENT FARMING.

The farmer who makes plenty OF
corn, peas, potatoes and other crops,
besides cotton, can always make plenty
81 meat and live independently Of the
furnisher OF supplies, and, latter making
plenty Of everything else he can raise
cotton as a surplus crop, making it
what it ought to be, the crop from
which he ought to derive the profits
Of his farm.
= If other crops are made to support
the farm the cotton, crop can be saved
as net profit, but if cotton is made the
principal crop the entire profits, will,
in most cases, be paid to tho merchant
who advances the supplies and to tho
laborer for the cultivation of tho crop.
We have never known Il farmer
who was his own furnisher of supplies
who did not make money, and on the
other hand we have never known one
who depended entirely on cotton who
did not have to pay all the profits OF
his farm into the hands of the mer-
chants and find an accumulation of
debts to be the result of his system of
farming.
Our farmers are now engaged in
planting corn and we would suggest
that they plant Il liberal proportion Of
their land in corn. leaving for cotton
only what there is over enough to sup
port the farm from the other crops
planted.
Raise corn, peas, potatoes, peanuts,
chulas, rice, oats and whatever else
you think your land adapted to that
can be cultivated profitably. Make
your own meat, sugar and molasscs
and then make what cotton you can.
Keep out of debt. DO without what
you can't pay for when it is possible to
do SO and buy nothing that is not real
ly necessary Jienntt Sentinel.

No figure wanted to the new senate
leaves a more emphatic vacancy than
that of the Spartan old Thurman, of
Ohio. Ills eccentricities of speech and
tricks of manner had become the de-
light of the habitues of the gallery. On
gala days his plenteous bandana kerr
chief was an oriflamme more stirring
than the nations bunting. When he
unfurled its lurid folds, supporting the
motion Ivy an adjustment OF his glasses,
there were few on eitherside the cham
Der that rashly confronted the veterans
merry humor or mcrciless tlagellat'on.
For twelve years he has been the pro-
phet and high priest of the ancient
faith of this country, but, like the
Mosaic leader, his eyes sometimes grew
dim and his courage tainted. He ruin
ed the luborious achievements of a long
and honored life by and amazing re-
lapse into the doctrines of paper money;
but unlike tl.e sins of other eminent
men he alone suffered the penalty. His
| long career has been on of unbiemiSheu
honor. AS Judge and senator he was
elected in opposition to the most popu-
lar republicans of his State. His legal
attainments are universally regarded
as the most weighty and we'll confirm
ed in the maXims of Jurisprudence.
AS Il l1W-n1akCT nc Ilttlc HO IHIotuASS ,
as a partisan he was passionate, but
never virulent or embittered. In the
senate he was Il law to both sides; all
lovers of fine speech, fine humor and
profound observation listening assielu-
ously whenever the strong old man adj
dressed the body. His special 'scrony''
was the senator from Vermont, man
by no means his equal in intellectual
breadth, political generosity orpersonal
charm Of manner. Senator Thurman
will be an irreparable loss to the judi
cial machinery of the body. Indeed,
his absence from Washington will
be loss to the nation, for his fine
powers were always eXertcd to keep
his party from their more mischievous
blunders. He retircs from political life

CREDIT TO FARMERS.

The Injurious effect to farmers, of the
credit system OF the South, is fOrcibly
shown in a recent decision rendered by
the Supreme Court of Mississippi. A
merchant holding Il lien or mortgage
on the crop ola farmer for supplies fur
nishcd, brought suit in the Chancery
Court to enforce his lien upon the crops
Of the debtor. A referee was apPoin-
ted and instructed to report under
special instructions from the Judge,
part of which in substance, We're to con-
slider the financial standing and solven'
cy of the farmer. The referee reported,
allowing the charges made in the bill OF
the merchant, although it was proved
that the prices charged was from ninety
TO one hundred per centum above cash
prices, for the same articles when sold
for cash. Judgment was rendered in
accordance with the report. The case
was appealed to the Supreme Court ANA
after hearing, this court reversed the
| Judgment of the lower court and re-
mnnded the case.
The Supreme court said: "Thc pur-
chaser was not in q CONDITION 10 DO
| free to decline the purchase OF the sup
plies on account of the prices charged,
and he acquiesced in the prices from
and overruling necessity. His eXtorted
assent to the prices fixed was wltnou.
consideration, and was therefore Vold.
This decision will have an important
bearing upon all of the Cotton States;
not that it settles the law in any other
State than Mississippi, but tending in
its effect to bring about reformation
of an abuse of credit that has bankrupt
ed both merchants and farmers
throughout the entire cotton belt.
If the f,rmer ever expects to become
indepen dent and to take that position
his resources justify, he must be self
sustaining and self-supporting at all
times. He must deal only for cash,
and upon a strictly cash basis, both in
the sale of his products and in the Pur-
chase of his necessary supplies. How
this change is to effected in the Cotton
States is no difficult problem. Two
years at most will do it, if the deter
mination is made to accomplish an in.
dependence on the part of the farmers
