A Lesson.

Louisville Commercial: The re
cent reaction from Inflated prices
as shown in the fall in the line OF
certain commercial staples-coffee,
pork, lard, wheat, corn, oats and
rye-ought to teach people that we
have not yet reached the balloon
period again. That time is about
seven or eight years ahead. The
tendency now is to a reasonable ad
vance, but not to wild speculation.
The conservatism which the iron
men have shown after their lesson
OF . year ago has been followed by
good results. There is nothing to
warrant the excitement which gam
blers are trying to create, and pru-
dent dealers will keep wisely on in
q rational and cautious way, salts
fed with moderate gains and not
infamed by the desire to get rich
in 8 week. There is to be a mark
ed increase OF activity in all
branches OF business. New rail-
roads will be built New manufac-
turing enterprises will be started.
New farms will DO opened to the
plough. Scientific invention will
create fresh industries or add to
the strength of those already in ex-
istence by novel appliances. The
country will be prosperous beyond
parallel, but it will be legitimate
prosperity and founded upon real
value. After awhile we will, of
course, have the imitation delirium
and then those who are caught will
pay the piper. But We have not
reached that period yet. Now 10
the time of sound and wholesome
progress, and the failures OF the
coffee firms in New York and the
decline Of pork and wheat in Chica
20 ought to warn half way prudent
people to shup speculation and
stick to their business in an old
fashioned and conservative way, be
satisfied with reasonable profits and
not eager to get suddenly rich.

asked permission to put a cot in

retired, but before dropping OF to
sleep the occupants of the room had
very interesting chat. In the
morning they were so pleased with
each other that Claiborne asked
the strangers name. "My name 10

How He Convinced His ParsOn
That His Regeneration was

Jim Webster. Yesterday he met
Parson Bledso, who asked him:

Road to Riches.

N. Y. Times: A Californian,
whose name is for obvious reasons
withheld, has made the pretended
discovery that the sure road to for
tune lies through the cultivation Of
oatriches. 1t 10 true that ostriches
are rather costly, since a good pair
cannot be landed in this country
for less than $500, but with that
pair a man can soon make himself
. millionaire. An ostrich hen will
lay eighty eggs per annum, from
which can be hatched eighty young
ostriches. OF these fully seventy
will be hens, and each one OF them
In its turn produce eighty ostrich
chickens annually. In two years
the ostrich breeder will have 6312
ostrlches-or say $500, for perhaps
the cat will succeed in killing a
dozen. These birds will be worth
$1,575,0o0. To this must be added
the value of syear's crop of festh-
ers, which, according to the Cali
fornian, will amount to S630,000
more. At the end of two years the
ostrich farmer will thus be worth
So, COG, 90, after deducting. as has
already been said, twelve birds as q
possible result Of Cat depredations.

A Cold Snap Eighty-FOur Years
Ago.

Knoxville Tribune: "Col. Moses
White has called our attention to
the following communication In the
Knoxville Gazette of January 9,
1797-the first paper published in
the state. The item was furnished
by some one living near the mouth
Of Little Tennessee: rs..
"For a few weeks past the wealth

"The gineral kicked the kiver of

One of her negro women came TO

chel;" don't you be disturbed. l

But her veriest detractors find
nothing to say against her looks or
character. "She was beastly igno-
rant" said one fine old gentleman,
and jackson married her, not from
love, but from an impulse of chiv-
airy, to fling his protection around
her." bat she was perfectly besuti-
ful, and as fine and good a woman
as ever lived.
But he did love her. They tell
that the Hermitage, which stands
rather oddly just back Of an eleva
ton of the ground, instead of on
it's brow, was so placed because
Mrs. Jackson, walking one after
noon with the General, stopped just
there and said it would be the right
place for the new house. as it was
only a short distance from the
spring where hey went for water.
The general struck the ground with
his staff and said there should the
foundations be.laid. And there they
were laid, in spite of expostulation.

The missionary business, like
other professions, has its difficulties.
Awhile ago King M'tesa, q ruler of
the northern shore Of Lake Nyanza
in Africa, left his faith in Lubali,
goddess OF the lake. He took the
Mohamedan faith of his neighbors
10 Egypt, and received q present Of
muzzle-losder from the Egyptians
az q compliment on the occasion.
Stanley spoke of him glowingly in
his account of his travels in Africa,
and, at an expense of s35, 900, the
English Protestants sent Missions
ries to his country. The English
had fine Snider rifles, which M'tesA
admired; SO he became a sound
Protestant christian. The Roman
Catholics got up a rival mission,
and their show and glittering vest
ments won the king and he was
soon an ardent follower of the
Jesuits. His people got tired Of
this whIrllgig piety, and three
months ago they demonstrated with
him on the subject and required
that he should fall back on the ma
tloDal orthodox faith. Mtesa read
lily agreed; he had all the powder.
guns and rifles he expected to get,
and now the goddess Lubali has no
dsvotee more faithful than he.
