Celestial Photographs.

The desire of the Chinese to have their
photographs taken amounts to a passion.
There is one firm in this city which does
a large business almost exclusively with
Chinese. Any fine afternoon one can
see crowd of Cinnamon around the
door examining the pictures of their
countrymen and women, and in the
gallery the accents of the Celestial
Empire are constantly heard. Convers-
ing with veteran photographer, who
has looked at more Chinese LONELINESS
through a camera than and other man
in the world perhaps, a Chronicle reporter
learned some facts about the Celestial
desire for portraits:
You see, said he, pointing to a row
of photographs in which a lot of ill-look-
ing Mongolians faced the spectator. with
their toes turned out and their arms
akimbo, call these are in the same
position: 1t is not once in a year that
you find Chinaman who wants to strike
any other attitude. He believes that
when he has his heels pointing toward
each other and his elbows crooked as if
they were cast iron he is the picture Of
dignifed repose"
Is it hard to please them p
Yes and no. In the points that white
people are most particular about the
Chinese are thoroughly careless. A Chi
naman doesn't care whether You touch
up the wrinkles in his face or tone down
the uneveness of his features. He does
not seem to have an eye for such things.
but he wants every line of his dress
brought out as clearly as possible. He
is particular to have his toes pointed out.
and wants to have his shoes come out in
the picture as plainly as his hands and
his fan. He is bound to have a fan. II
ne has his picture taken with bouquet
OF flowers on the table by him he wants
to see every flower done Justice to. The
colder and the harder the picture and
the less light and shadow on it the better
he likes it. Of what may be called the
essentials of picture he has no regard
at all, but is scrupulously exact in his
ideas OF the things that are not essential
at all. Nothing would disgust a Chi
naman as much as to give him thor
oughly artistic picture with profusion
Of high light and correspondinely deer
shadow. He wants it to be like himself
without color"
Are the women more difficult to
please? ?"
No; they are rvther more easily

1000, ana improve more on III, ana every
farmer knows how stock get tired of dry
food towards the spring, and how they
begin to fatten and get sleek as soon as
they get grass and other green food.
From an experiment we made last fall
we are convinced that silo may be used
without boarding or bricking up, if the
sides are of solid, red clay, and that the
fodder will keep as well without cutting
up, and we think probably better than
when cut up, as no cut surfaces are ex-
posed to the air, except where the stalk
is severed from the ground. Of course
boarding or bricking is better, and if the
farmer has the cutting machinery, it is
better to cut up, as it saves labor and
time in feeding. The fodder in my pit
not cut up, not trampled except by hu-
man feet, without boarding or bricking
up, kept perfectly except the first two
and half feet, which was lost by the
hand having the pit in charge, in my abb
sence, cutting the planks that go across,
the exact width of the top of the pit,
which was slightly splayed to prevent
caving AS the heavy rocks forced the
planks down they caught on the sides,
but were pressed down in the middle
against the fodder. Besides this, some
water found its way under the shingle
roof that did not project enough. Not
withstanding all this. the lower 81 feet
kept perfectly, and l am now feeding it
to cows and horses, being cut out of the
pit by a sharp spade
Prof. Armsby says, with unessential
notifications, Ensilage has long been in
use in Germany, the product being known
as "sour maize or sour hay" While
if the fodder be partly dried, it yields
" brown hay" But we suspect the pro-
cess must have been essentially different,
for [ scarcely think that our ensilage can
be called soar maize, for it only seems to
undergo the alcoholic fermentation, fur
pressure, excluding the air. Certainly
there's little acid about our ensilage, and
it is very far removed from the "saur
kraut" of the Germans, of which they are
so fond, and which may have induced
them to extend the same "sour" to their
animals.
While Directing to the want of practi-
cal information to the farmer, in the work
under discussion, we do not intend to say
that it is not valuable book. 1t will
be valuable to the scientific farmer, to
those versed in chemistry, and to those
who will take the labor to study it out
and comprehend it properly. To do this
will require labor and time We are told
that the German farmers are furnished
by the Experiment Stations" with a
manual of cattle-feeding, which they car
ry In their pockets, and which enables
them to understand and appreciate the
value OF every. feed they have occasion to
use, and best mode of using it. It must
be very different thing from Professor
Armsbys book, and even if the tables he
gives of the Composition of feeding
stuffs' is the same as that supplied to the
German farmer, the latter must be &C
companied with explanations, or the Ger
man is a much more scientific farmer than
the American.

pleased. But then we see very little of
the better class of Chinese women. These
who come for their pictures are the very
lowest, and of course they are not very
particular. All they want is to have as
gaudy picture as possible. They in
variably have it painted, with plenty of
color on their cheeks and all the golden
ornaments brought out in bright yellow.
so that the picture will make a sensation
when they send it home. The Chinese
seldom have pictures taken for any other
object than to send to their friends and
relatives. We always have a rush of
business before the steamer goes out, and
along toward New Years we have our
hands full.-San Francisco Chronicle.

ceeded, and the president informed
Gen. Grant that he could have the non,-
nation of five brigadiers. Col. Gresham
was named as one of the five, and was
promptly confirmed. At once he was
placed in command of II division, and
proved success from that time to the
end of the war, and would have been
promoted to major general had there
been vacancy.
His political history, in an active
way, since the war, was confined to a
race for congress in a district with three
thousand democratic majority. Presi-
dent Grant offered him the collector
ship of New Orleans, but the odor of
Louisiana politics was not suited to his
taste, and he declined. When a va
cancy occurred in the judgeship of this
district, he was appointed. to it. 1t can
be said of him that he had so deported
himself all his life that every honest
loan in the state. is his friend, and
though he has been out of active poll
tics, ! think he has greater personal
than any man in Indiana

Degrees Of OfMurdar

A dramatic incident in Troy court
room illustrates topic worth under
standing by those interested in the
criminal reports. King and Hamilton,
two convicts in Dannemora prison.
quarreled, soon after the shooting OF
President Garfield, over the fitness of
Vice President Arthur to succeed to the
Presidency. King became SO much
excited that, when at length Hamilton
made some strong remark adverse to
the Vice President. King struck him
upon the head with an axe, and then
struck second blow. Hamilton was
killed on the spot. King was brought
to trial for the murder. About an hour
and half only sufficed for the testi.
mony and arguments, and the jury
then retired to deliberate. They were
absent considerable time, and at
length returned and asked the Judge to
give explanations of the difference lei
tween first and second degrees of mur-
der. This evinced, of course, that there
were members of the jury inclined to
pronounce the killing murder in the
second degree only. The punishment
Of the first degree of murder is death;
OF the second degree imprisonment for
life. Now the sentence under which
King was already imprisoned was to
imprisonment for life for a previous
murder. Therefore verdict of guilty
of murder in the second degree would
have been of slight importance to him;
it could. at utmost, only have destroyed
such hope as he might have of receiv-
ing pardon from his first sentence.
As the judge was beginnisg to answer
the question Of the jury, the prisoner
started to his feet and interposed in this
extraordinary protest:
"Your Honor and gentlemen of the
jury, this WAS not murder in the Sec
ond degree. II was a deliberate and
premeditated murder. / know | have
done wrong, that ought to confess the
truth, and that ] ought to be hanged"
Here the prisoners counsel tried in vain
to silence him. .No," continued King,
II have done wrong. Itwas my duty
to confess it, andI cannot help doing
so. cannot keep still. l plead guilty
to murder in the first degree. Il was
fifteen minutes from the time struck
the first blow with the axe until l struck
him the second time, and all this time
! kept thinking will finish this man.
If this is not premeditated murder,
what is? l have already killed two
men. What is my life to me2 The
life OF either of these two men whom
have killed is worth dozen of nine"
The judge, naturally enough, then
told the jury that after what the pris-
oner had said there was no necessity
for his explaining the distinction Of
degrees. The jury retired again, but
soon returned, bringing the verdict of
guilty Of murder in the first degree,
and the prisoner was sentenced 10 be
hanged on the 4th of November next.
