JOHN SHERMAN TALKS.
National PrOsPeTity-PubIic Har-
mOBy and Unity OF Sentiments.

CINCINNATI, November 16-Hon. John
Sherman appeared on Change to-day, and
made brief address, in which he alluded
to the dark days Of the past when he had
spoken to Cincinnati merchants, and he
congratulated them that these were past
and that now no country had brighter
prospects than this, being at peace not only
with the rest Of the world, but among our
selves. Nearly all the asperities which
have divided the people have passed
away. After the reception given to General
Sherman at Atlanta yesterday, surely the
Democrats and Republicans Of Cincinnati
should have no cause for quarrel. He knew
of no political issue in Ohio worthy of the
name. The tariff used to be a cause of
difference, but when D. w. Voorhees,, of
Iudisoa, and John Sherman, of Ohio, stood
side by side on this subject, he thought
Cincinnati politicians of different parties
could do the same. Continuing, he spoke of
legislation of interest to the business 0m-
munlty, abiding to law to assist an honest
creditor in pursuing his debtor and to law
for the direction OF commerce between
States, which he said should framed with
a view 10 he interests of business men.
Mr.. Sherman goes to Atlanta in the morn
ing, in company with Messrs Richard Smith,
Benjamin Eggleston and Others of this city.

SHOOTING Al
How a Game Little M
Received an Tnpudt
Memphis Aualan

In one of the Mississippi
very far from Memphis,
the Mississippi and Tenness
a little lady, aged about
and severely wounded
white tramp, who attempted
house after being ordered no sv
The lady, who is small but game. and
crack shot with a pistol, was the only
white person in the house when the bur
ly tramp approached. 1--WE have moth
ing for you; you needn't come in, !" said
she to the tramp "But will come in, "
he answered. ''You had better not.
or you will get what you don't want,
quietly responded the lady, as she laid
down her knitting, picked a six-shooter
from her work basket and approached
the door. "You go back in your
room, or I'll pitch you out of the
window" exclaimed the ruffianly tramp,
as he walked inside the door. Bangi
went the pistol, and the tramp staggered
back on the porch, shot through the
arm and breast. She raised the pistol
rushed around the house and asked the
little lady. who was sitting down and
engaged in knitting, with her pistol in
her work basket, Whats the matterS"
She exclaimed, Hes gonel" He then
asked, did you shoot him2" eyes"
she replied, ''and if he kept on coming
l would be shooting until now" The
tramp was found to be bleeding pro
fusely, and it was with difficulty that
the flow of blood could be stopped. He
left the town a sadder and wiser man,
having been taught lesson in manners
that he will not soon forget. That game
little woman is worth her weight in gold
dollars.

The Future of British Agriculture.

LONDON, November 16-Jsmes Card,
addressing the Statistical Society, of which
he is President, last evening, said that tn
grain land and 22S 600 acres of green crop
land in Great Britain had been converted
into permanent pasture, and that the
annual returns, 9S00, 900, formerly derived
from those crops, had thereby disappeared.
He attributed the agricultural depression,
not to American competition, but to bad sea-
sons, etc, and considered that the burdens,
difficulties and uncertainties OF American
agriculture would always place it at dis
advantage with British agriculture in the
British market.

AMERICAS FUTURE.
Mr.. John WsIter's Advice TO En-
gIIshmen.

LONDON, November 16.-Mr. John Walter,
member of Parliament, and of the London
Times, recently speaking at Abingdon, in
Berkshire, on the result Of his tour in
America, said it was desirable that there
should be in all English counties body of
men able to advise their neighbors
who are about to go to America.
Any Englishman going to America
who IS q good judge of land, and who is
steady and industrious, might be certain OF
becoming wealthy and prosperous before he
was fifty years old. Before the close OF the
next century the United States would have
a population of 200, ,000. 900. He wished that
Engiishmen would go there; they would be
an additional element OF stability In the
country, and would be as likely to succeed
there as the men of any other nationality.
