Rarnhardt ard Her Son.

When the Amerique, with Nile Bern
hardt on board. was near the port OF
Havre, a fortnight ago, large tngboat
was seen coming out, with scO-e or
more of persons on deck. Among them
was Bernhardts son, Maurice, who is
described as an agreeable young fellow
of about l6 years OF age, of pleasant APP
pearsncs, and dressed in exceedingly
good taste. His mother was expecting
to see him, and eagerly surveyed the ap.
preaching tug to catch glimpse OF him
from among the throng. When hereyes
fell upon him her actions are said to
have been indescribable. "She trem.
bled," writes an eye witness, turned
paler than ever, cried, waived her arms,
ran from one part Of the vessel to
another, shouted out bis name time and
again, and would, in ali probability, have
sprung into the sea, had not the ever
faithful Claude been by TO prevent her.
Finally the two boats were lashed to-
Qether, and the son was soon embodied in
his mothers arms. Il was Q touching
sight No acting now"

Farm Life.


Amidst the drudgery OF farm life the
husbandman is apt to undervalue the
importance to the world of his occupa-
tion. The bright and shining p,owshare
is the measure Of nations prosperity,
and may be regarded as emblematic of
it's civilization and refinement; for, let
the plowshare rust and remain idle, and
the fields withhold their fruits, COM
merce ceases, aud all industries are end.
ed; the merchant, the mariner, and the
artisan are plunged in sepulchre OF
ruin. Herein lies the power and value
Of agriculture. Without it, nations
silver and gold become tinkling Gym
balls; its ships and workshops and all its
,quipsges OF wealth are empty tokens OF
prosperity.
In turn, men OF thought and science
have laid their most valuable services at
the feet OF the husbandman, and bid
him combine thought with labor in the
cultivation OF the soil; and, though slow
TO accept his service, the chemist un
folds 10 him the hidden mysteries OF
nature. His is the mother Of all arts,
and the noblest OF them all. He has
no doubtful balances" TO disturb his
repose. He deals alone with Mother
Earth. which, of all the elements, has
never proved unfriendly to man. The
air rushes in storms, prepares the tenn
pest and lights up the volcano: but the
earth, ever kind and indulgent, is found
subservient 20 his wishes, and never re-
fuses her accustomed yield, spreading
his path with flowers and his table with
plenty, and returning with interest
every good committed to her care.
When at last he is called upon to pass
through the dark valley of the shadow
OF death-she once more receives him,
and piously covers his remains within
her bosom.

"The sewers OF Rome engulied in the
course OF centuries the prosperity OF the

THE SNOW.
How Much Damage fla. II Done,

lFrom Bradstreet.l
The extreme severity Of the winter and the
consequent lateness Of the spring opening
in the West have necessarily aroused an
eager desire to learn definitely tho agri-
cultural, trade and transportation situation
in the regions indicated. In response to
thus want Of the business pubic. we have
obtained dispatches from our correspondents
at Cleveland Columbus, Cincinnati Dayton,
Detroit, Grand Rapids, indianapolis, Louis
Vile, Chicago, PEORIA st. LOUIS Milwaukee,
st. Paul, Burlington, Omaha, Kansas CIty, st.
Joseph and Denver. Our correspondents ut
these centers are in constant communication
with trained observers at interior points, who
are III contact with the farmers and country
merchants One main que y which he's taken
possession OF the business public is Has
anything occurred in tie West to
seriously check business prosperity From the
tenor OF our dispatches, the answer unm stalk
ably is, No. WhIle the elements nave con-
spired To delay the spring trade III the West and
Northwest, there Is nothing to show that its
volume will be less than last year. The
trade situation is strongly sustained, as
the foundations Of prosperity are unatered,
and promise to continue indefinitely 1t
is apparent that stocks OF goods in the
hands Of country merchants are very much de-
pleted. TINS fact put with the knowledge that
the farming and industrial classes generally
are just now abundantly able to purchase, in
dicate conclusively that both demand and con-
sumption through the spring must be
large. Collections have been slow, but
1t Is evident that the banks have been
abundantly able TO grant the credits required.
While 1t Is yet early 10 give judgment as to the
general condition OF winter wheat, il il safe
10 say, from our advices, that winter wheat
has not been seriously injured. The uncer-
tain quantity TO the wheat situation is
the exteut to which spring wheat sowing
Will be reduced, owing to the backwari ness
OF the spring. The severe weather has been
seriously felt by the railroads i'll u large de-
crease of earnings, owing to the expense at
tending the clearing of SNOW and ice from the
tracks. and inability to receive and move NOR
chandise promptly. Regarding livestock in
terests our Denver correspondent telegraphs
that the losses on cattle Will DO under 10 per
cent, and that one-ifth of the sheep are
gone. This Is by no MEALS 40 bad as has been
feared.
