Since autumn has cast her rich
halo Of glory about this lcautiful
city, environed by forest hills and
winding river, it is apparent that the
grand Capital of state palaces, broad
avenues, long smoothe streets and
lovely parks and grounds, has been
much improved during the season.
The enchanting Capital grounds have
grown in beauty; new park has
been made out of Mount Vernon

built by many statesmen and wealthy

where banks of flowers yet bloom in
the golden autumn sunlight, and
scarlet vines swing in the soft winds

II the guarantors agree on or before
January /, 1872, to take the amount
which they have already paid in
stock, then the directors shall issue
preferred stock to the amount of ten
thousand dollars, bearing six per
cent. annual interest.
Mr.. Billmyer took the ground that
as a stakeholder, he in common with
Others who were not guaransors had
subscribed stock as farmers for the
interest of the farming community
and not for the purpose of specula-
ton; that already good enough had
been accomplished to more than pay
for the small outlay made by the
great number of stockholders, and
that instead of being offended they
should feel it a matter OF Justice to
recompense those guarantors for their
heavy expenditure to the extent at
least of the sale Of the ground, which
would not half pay the debt, and if
any number OF citizens would pur-
chase the property and continue the
annual fairs they would do them
selves honor and the community
good, and il all other stockholders
did them justice and would benefit
themselves and the county they
should give them their influence and
cordial support and patronage at
every fair. A wide awake, sensible
farmer would be always looking after
improvements and at no place could
he gather it better than at county
fair. The foolish farmers stay at
home and growl.

INDUCED in between Mr.. Faulkner

A BERKELEY FARMER
IN KANSAS.


our friends are doing well who have
emigrated from this beautiful val
ley to the far West. Whilst we are
decidedly of opinion that farmers can
do as we'll in this valley as they can
in any part of the United States, yet
there are men who unquestionably
better their own condition and pro
mote the interest of their children
by seeking q home in a new State.
Our friend whose letter we publish
below is an illustration of this truth.
We have no doubt that he acted
wisely, for himself and his family in
emigrating to Kansas, and we are
pleased to hear of his success and
hope he may continue to add "acre
to acre." and to abound in prosper
ity and happiness:

November Z, 1881.
I was quite successful with my
Jerseys this fall, which l exhibited
at the Western National Fair at
Bismarck Grove, near Lawrance; at
the State Fair at Topeka, and at the
Nessho Valley District Fair in
Woodson county. At Bismarck l
was awarded three first and one sec
ond prize; at Topeka four first and
one sec md prize, and at our District
Fair three first prizes, in all amount
ing to two hundred and fifty-three
dollars. 1 sold three bull calves at
fifty dollars each. Our Kansas fairs
are far ahead OF your eastern fairs; as
stock shows | don't think they can
be beaten anywhere. At Bismarck
the crowd for several days was eS
timated at thirty thousand, and at
| Topeka, for several days, forty
thousand. At Topeka we had camp
of about seve lty-five Indians. Henry
| and | camped quite close to them.
| This | never expected to do, but they
were quite civil and well behaved
and seemed to take great interest in
the fair. They were given an OPP
| portunity to amuse themselves as
well as to amuse others. One day
they gave us their war dance, the
next day a game of ball in their way,
and the next a half mile race with
their ponies.
was sorry to notice in the INDIE
PENDENT that your fair was likely
to go down. l certainly think that
| your county, with the assistance of
Jefferson and Morgan, should keep
up a good fair. Our Kansas fairs
are generally successful, even the
| county fairs.
Our county is increasing very
much. 1t is really wonderful to see
what has been done since have been
here in the way of building, laying
out farms and fencing. Our county
town (Iola) is growing fast. 1t has
now two railroads and prospect for
a third.
We have about half crop of corn,
oats and flax; wheat is nearly fail
ure. The grass crop was very fine.
Stock is doing we'll on the ranges as
yet.
We have had some sickness in our
| family this season, but all is right
again. We are well pleased with
our new home. Henry is delighted
with the country, and is full of 60
aheadedness. He is a very stout and
Woodworking boy. We bought a
very pretty quarter section of land
last spring at four dollars per acre
for which we could now get six dol
lars per acre. My respects to all my
Berkeley friends.

The Shepherdstown Register says:
On Thursday of last week, Mr.. and
Mrs. John Hughes, of Clearspring,
Washington county, Nd, formerly
Of Martinsburg, celebrated their fif-
tieth or golden wedding. Members
OF the family and many other friends
assembled to extend their their con-
gratulations. Handsome presents
were made; a bountiful table was
spread and a delightful evening was
spent at their home. Mr.. Hughes
and Miss Bette Meredith were unit
ed in matrimony in Boonsboro' in
the year 1881, by Rev. r. S. Vinton,
M. E., at that time pastor of that
charge. We tender them our best
congratulations.

IN glancing over one of our ex-
changes, we noticed an interesting
article copied from the Republicans
paper published at Hopkinsville, Ky,
giving description of the beautiful
cemetery, called "The Land of the
Silent Majority" by the writer, and
some OF the notable citizens who
have been buried in it. We extract
tlat portion of the article that refers
to Capt. John p. Campbell, the
father Of Mrs. e. Boyd Faulkner:
zone of the most remarkable men
buried here was Captain John Z.
Campbell, for many years presto ont
Of the Bank of Kentucky in this
place. The owner and active man
ager of several large farms, and a
large number Of slaves heavy oper-
ator in tobacco, and successful
man Of affairs, his tall, erect, well
dressed person was for a long time q
conspicuous figure upon the streets.
His success was as uniform as his
industry, his integrity equaled his
industry. The inhexible and inn
movable character of the man is typ
flied by the shaft of Scotch granite
which marks his resting place. The
ancient Scottish clan Campbell new
er had more sturdy descendant
than he. A Virginian by birth and
one of the largest slave holders in
Western Kentucky, he was devoted
to the Union during the rebellion
and no disaster nor misfortune could
shake his fidelity to what he believ-
ed to be his duty.

calling Longfellow's exquisite and
well known lines:
Somewhat back from the village
street
Stands the old fashion country seat,
Acrsss lis antique portico
Tall poplar trees their shadows throw
And from its station in the hail
An ancient time-piece says to all,
Forever-naver,
Never-forever.
In that mansion used to be
Free. hearted hospitality;
T % great fires up his chimney roared,
The stranger Toasted at his board,
But like a skeleton at the feast
The warning time-piecelneve ceased.
Forever-never,

Washington, July 15.-The agricul-
tural department returns for July, re-
port the condition of the wheat crop as
reported July 1st, is much better than
June 1st, and averages s3 per cent for
the country. The Atlantic states fall
off slightly as compared with the re-
turns for the same time last year; but
the large wheat region north Of the Ohio
river and west Of the Mississippi return
a low condition compared with 1880.
Michigan reports only 81 per cent, and
Illinois00 per cent. Ohio and Indiana
are below last year, but report fair
prospect. Missouri and Kansas each
make a great complaint of damage from
insects. In spring wheat, the state Of
Iowa alone returns a condition much
lower than last year, and which is only
72 per cent. The area planted in corn
is an increase OF nearly 2 per cent over
that of 80, and the average condition
Of the crop is not so high as the last
two years, and is 90 against 100 per

New York, July 15.-Ths Tribune
says: A man who deliberately plans an
assassination for I've days before he
makes the dastardly assault; who goes
about examining arms, and when he
has purchased pistol, weeks in ad-
vance Of his crime, practices first at q
board, SO as to improve his markham
ship; who dogs his victims steps, fol-
lowing him one day into church, and
selecting perch where he can fire at
him on the following Sunday; who
watches for his man in the depot, or
street corners, and wherever he is likely
to meet him, until at last he runs him
to earth-is sane enough in all con-
science. The complete account which
District Attorney Corkhill furnishes of
the assassin's movements from March
9Th to July I'd, renders the story of in
sanity utterly untenable. To believe it
almost implies insanity in him who be-
lieveS it.

hands to keep them running night and
