The Old Gatling Homestead.

A Murfreesboro, Tenn, correspondent
of the Buffalo Courier, who has been
visiting the old Calling homestead, in
that vicinity, writes entering the
Doctors light carriage, we crossed the
river and passed into the dense pine and
cypress forests with which thirds of
the section is covered. In u drive of five
miles we only passed one house, and the
road for nearly the entire distance pass
ing through virgin forests, the trees of
which, In many cases and sometimes for
long distances, met over our heads The
country being fiat and the road often
forming a straight line for a mile or
more, the view through these narrow av-
enues, lined by dense forests, was very
striking and novel. AS we approached
our destination we turned into private
road and soon came in view of the
Gatling homestead, which, aside from
three or four hundred acres of clearing
Immediately around the dwelling, is
surrounded by heavy timbered forests,
extending many miles in either direc-
ton, broken only by an occasional small
plantation. The present dwelling is
two-story frame building about 15x30,
with a one-story rear extension, painted
white. 1t is surrounded by beautiful,
well kept double yard, in which are
great number and variety of fine trees,
among them a straight-growing juniper,
the maple, cedar, pine, and elm. In the
side yard is the original Gatling mansion,
n log structure about 12x15, with mud
chimney, built, as all chimneys in the
South are, on the outside at the gable
end. This house, which is now used as
kitchen, was built about the beginning
of the present century, by Jordon Cat
ling, the father of Richard, the inventor,
and it was in this small structure that
the latter was born and raised"

A French Farmer.

The lot of French farmer is neither
happy nor jolly. He fares frugally on
soup and the thinnest of ordinary red
wide or cider. The stock of his soup is
bacon, and he eats butchers meat only
twice week-that is on Sunday and
market-day. When he attends market
he makes succulent dcjeuner and
drinks good deal of beer at the cafe.
This is his only cheerful time at ordin-
AIRY seasons he is morose, troubled about
the weather, the consumption which is
going to take his son in the army, and
about politics, of which he understands
just enough to be i'll constant dread of
revolutions. He is conservative that is
to say he upholds the government of the
day, whatever it is, for fear of anarchy !;
but no government Is popular with him,
for every administration finds it neces.
sary to lay on new taxes. The climate,
however, is in his favor. A bad harvest
is not a common thing in France, and
succession of bad harvests never occur.
1t is lucky for the French farmer that
this is SO, for there are few French
landlords who would be in a position
to remit any part of a years rent after n
bad harvest. The rule in France is that
farmers rent must be paid as punctually
as dodgers rent. If it be not paid,
election is resorted to at once, and no
body thinks of looking upon the tenant
as an ill-used man.

Worthy Spanish Citizens.

In striking contrast with this refuse Of
n past peonage are the Spanish families
of New Mexico. They are cultivated
and intelligent. They have wealth and
the refinement that wealth brings. They
are possessed of ready perception,
which has given them clear understand
ing of the new order, and they have been
the first to take advantage OF it. In
almost every enterprise in the Territory
which calls for enterprise, money and
pluck, the Spanish families are repre-
sented. They are far less provincial
than one would suppose. The sons and
daughters of many of them have been
educated i'll Europe and the East, and
there is cosmopolitan color in their
manners and methods of thought They
meet the newcomer on an equality.
They understand that he is necessity
to the growth of the Territory, and they
know that growth means prosperity
Their intuitions are Castillian, but their
desires are American. In time they will
assimilate with the Republic, which is
but the child of many nations after all,
and the time is not far away. These
people will do much toward bringing
about the change which is so near at
hand.-DepUe7. (COi) Tribune.

A Dear Husband.

Marrowfat got up unusually early the

good-natured, he answered i'll the affirm

But" said Mrs. NJ, "don't go to the
grocer's; they charge twenty-five cents q
dozen for them there, and they were only
twenty-five cents at the butter and egg
store yesterday"
Marrowfat said nothing, but quiet
smile played round the corners of his
mouth as he put ON his hat and went out
of the door. When he returned his iov-
ing spouse queried:
Eggs the same price to-day, my
dear?"
"Weli," replied pater fan,ilias,
"these cost me thirty-two cents"
Why, Mr.. Marrowfat, what do you
mean ?" asked she.
"The grocer's is next door, the butter
and egg store quarter of a mile away;
rode down and back: the cheapest things,
my love, are sometimes the dearest"

The Adams Temper.

Residents of Quincy, during the days
of John Adams and his son, John Quin-
cy, used to speak of the Adams temper.
Neither Of these great men made the
least attempt to conceal his dislikes and
prejudices, and both would say disagree
able things to other persons.
John Quincy Adams was once con-
versing with gay city gentleman.
Your young men in New England"
said the latter, half-appealingly, care
better trained than ours they are not
surrounded by such bad influences that,
perhaps, makes difference.
"Iwas left pretty much to myself when
a mere boy in the most corrupt capital
of Europe but it made no difference to
me-" answered Mr.. Adams.
OF course the gentleman, who had
nothing more to say, did not think Mr..
Adams winning in his ways. This in
trinity of temper, together with his
coldness of manner, prevented him from
being fortunate in making or in keeping
friends.
AS an ILLUSTRATION of John Adams in
trinity of temper, Mr.. Congdon, the
journalist, relates a conversation he had
Wleh Aht. ShuAlCb huhAhos ~
occurred the morning after the inaugu-
ration of Franklin's statue in Boston.
"My grandfather, said Mr.. Adams,
"never could keep his temper Frank
lin always kept his. The two men never
could get along together. My grand
father was all fire, said imprudent
things, and lost his self-control. Frank
lin took advantage of this, answered
calmly, argued warily, and for this rea-
son usually got the better of the argu-
ment."
This infirmity of noble mind was,
however, the result of that very vehem-
ence of spirit which did such good SER
vice in the Revolutionary times. AS
such it may be classed among the many
illustrations of the fact that vice is
often virtue carried to an excess.
But young men should remember that
n bad temper is barrier to ones sue
cess. Genial manners prevent battles,
and win where harshness and anger
would lose. A kind word and court
eous greeting cost nothing, and their
effect Is wonderful in softening the as
perities of life.

The Italian Postman's Hard Lot.

A Rome correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Bulletin writes: Il see by a
morning newspaper that the pay of the
Roman po tman varies from Is to 80
francs a month, with which he must eat,
lodge, dress, etc, and sometimes he has
a family TO keep in the bargain think
that in most countries the postman is the
worst paid of all public servants, and
he has, perhaps, to work the hardest.
Some months ago one OF these was sud-
denly missing, and at the same time an
important sum was missing from the
treasury. 1t was, of course, surmised
that both had taken the same road. Last
week. however, after six months, the de-
cayed and putrid body of man was
found in one of the lofts of the Post
Office. The stencil was so great that at
first no one could get near until the air
was made breathable by disinfectaDts
The missing employe was then recoS-
nized a revolver was in his hand. In
the pockets of his coat we're citation
for debt and one cent! The whole
tragedy was written on that cent. 1t
was not he, however, who had taken the
missing money. The family name is
thus far unstained.

True to the Last.

Daisy Shoemaker, the pretty daughter
OF farmer living near Richmond, Va.
had agreed to elope with Westland Pierce,
but when the critical moment arrived
she feared to transgress her parents
wishes, and would not go to the rendez-
vous. Her sister Jane, two years her
senior, begged her to keep her trust with
her lover, but MI in vain. "Well. if you
don't keep your word with West Pierce,
I'll do it for YOU" she said, and indig-
nantly leaving her sister, she got into
the buggy and dashed off, despite
the screams of her sister. Miss Jane
reached the waiting place; explanations
were made; she said she was willing to
take her sisters place. The lover.
touched by her pluck and captivated by
her determination not to let the plan fail
through, did actually marry her-so the
story goes.

Broad Wagon Tires.

ave have often wondered" remarks
the Chicago Tribune, "wl.y people per-
sist in the use OF narrow wagon tires III
any section of country where the roadf
are of clay and mud. Common sense
should teach men that the narrower the
tire the deeper the wheel will sink down
in the mud. The prevailing width OF
road-wagon tires is one and three-fourths
to two inches, when they should be at
least double that. IL the tire were four
inches wide, the wagon would not sink
one quarter as deep III soft roads, and
those terrible ruts seen in wet weather
would not exist. Broad tires have the
effect of smoothing and improving clay
roads. The surface of roads will stand
a certain amount of pressure, but the
narrow tire of loaded wagon cuts
through it like knife whereas broad
tire four to five inches wide would roll it
without sinking. We find the following
on this subject in the DOwagiac Mich
Republican:
"'The wide-tire wagon is coming into
general use in this vicinity. Those who
have purchased this style of wagon could
not be induced to go back to the old.
The philosophy Of this is readily OBJ
served. The broad tire does not cut
through, either in mud or sand, thus
making the draught much lighter be-
side this the roads are not cut up, but,
to the contrary, the broad tire presses
down the Jumps and leaves a smooth
track, thus lettering the roads, the nd
vantage of which is easily understood.
Many farmers and teamsters are having
their wheels fixed over with q broad
tire, which is done at small cost, while
hardly a new wagon is made here of the
old style. It is hoped that the broad
tire will be generally adopted, and that
none will purchase q wagon without
first considering the benefits arising
from using this style. The tire which
seems to meet with general favor is three
and q half inches wide >"
