DON'T CROWD.

Don't crowd: this world is broad enough
For YOU IS we'll as me;
The doors of art are open wide
The realm of thought Is free;
OF all earth's places you are right
To choose the best you can,
Provided that Won DO not try
To crowd some other man.
What matter though YOU scarce can
count
Your piles Of golden ore,
While he can hardly strive to keep
GaUnt famine from his door?
OF willing hands and honest heart
Alone should man be proud;
Then give him all the room he needs,
And never try TO crowd.
Don't crowd, proud miss; your dainty
silk
VIII glisten none the less
Because il comes in contact with
a beggar's tattered dress;
This lovely world was never made
For you and alone;
pauper has n right 30 tread
The pathway to throne.
Don't crowd the good from out your heart,
BY fostering all that's had;
But give TO every virtue room
The best that may be had;
Be each days record such one
That you NAV we'll he proud;
Give each his right-give each his room,
And never try to crowd

MORKING COWS.

A gentleman writing from England,
says: "When visiting the fine herd
of short-hOrns belonging to Mr.. E.
Bowly, of Skiddington, learned that
it was not an uncommon practice at
that place to work short-horn cows.
They were used in blowing and other
farm work, not on the roads, as l un-
derstOOd. In number of cases this
practice had been successful. saw
two or three cows belonging to the
herd, and a very-high-priced COW be-
longing to another noted herd, which
had been worked more or less this
year, and which were being grazed
on the poorest pasture on the farm !;
but thus far neither of them was in
calf. In other places 1 saw cows
which it was attempted to reduce in
flesh by putting them on poor pasture =.
but this is a slow process and not a
desirable one. Some mode of secur-
ing regular and sufficient exercise is
undoubtedly a great help, and there
seems no objection 10 the plan of put
ting the cows to useful labor"

The saying is for you.

No child in ell this careless world

No matter, whether field or glen,
Or city's crowded way,
Or pleasures laugh or labor's hum.

Some one is always watching YOU,
And whether wrong or right.
No child in all this busy world

And marking what YOU do,
To see If all your childhoOd's acts

And watching more than mortal kind
Gods angels pure and white,
In gladness or in sOrrOwing,
Are keeping you in sight.

The Dream that Frightened a Woman.

Bath (Me.) Times: A lady in Bath
was recently much alarmed by dream
ing that some one was holding her
wrist. Vainly endeavoring to scream
for assistance, she succeeded at length
in whispering just loud enough to
awaken herself. After few minutes
relief at being no longer under the in
fuence of the dream, she became
conscious that some one was really
holding her left wrist, and all her
strength was inadequate to release it.
Whether to call her hostess or not
was easily decided, for her terror rem
dered her as speechless as she had
been before awakening. II could not
be that any of her friends had seized
her wrist i'm sport; it was too rigid a
clasp, ard had been continued some
time, for her left hand was cold and
numb. But just as she should be
able to speak in a moment she found
the relentless grasp was that Of her
own right hand, and not easy to with
draw from its twin companion, so
desperate had become its hold.

TAN BARK FOR MANURE.

Spent tan bark as received from the
tanneries is valuable as a fertilizer,
and it would pay for the trouble of
drawing it some distance. The tan
ming or fannie acid which the tanner
extracts from the bark is of no value
as fertilizer in reality, because this
is obtained from the atmosphere it
takes nothing which comes from the
soil, and is of value when returned to
the soil. Leaves contain more potash
and phosphates than the limbs or
timber of the tree. Bark contains
nearly as large a quantity of these
minerals as the leaves, weight for
weight. You will find a much larger
bulk of ashes after burning wood. If
bark from the tannery is placed In a
hill and mixed with quick-lime, de-
composition will be accelerated and a
pile of fertilizing matter obtained,
which would be equal in value to
many of the cheap commercial fer
tilizers sold. Your pile made up this
fall and turned over a few times in
the spring of the year would no doubt
make a good fertilizer.-Ameri

An Attempt to Capture the James Boys.

BOWLING GREEN, KY, Oct. 3lst.-
a well planned attempt was made
last Friday night to capture the James
boys, who have been stopping among
friends not far from Adairville, Logan
County, in this State. The Jameses
have many relatives in Logan county,
near Adairville, and in Nelson coun-
ty, in the vicinity of Chaplin, as well
as in Larue county. The discovery
of their retreat on the Pecos in Texas,
and the unstripping of their diguis-
es and assumed names, has rendered
it prudent for them to seek shelter
from the keen pursuit instituted by
Gov. Crittenden and the railroad au-
thorities of Missouri. Therefore they
came to Kentucky, and their coming
soon became known.
On the 10th of the month, a woman
wrote a letter to Governor Black
burn that the James Boys intended to
attack and rob a train on the Louis
vile & Nashville railway, at Coles
burg. Gov. Blackburn was at the
time in attendance at the Centennial
at Yorktown, where the letter reach
ed him. He Immediately referred the
letter to the railroad authorities. This
caused a delay of several days in col
lecting and organizing force to at
tack them. Their place of hiding it
was believed had been located.
a posse of fifteen men, detectives and
others well armed, went to the place
Friday night as stated, surrounded
the house of Mr.. Hite and expected to
tiiumphantly lead the geat bandits into
captivity. But their expectations
were not realized. The robber chiefs
had taken their departure. They had
been there, but they had gone.
a posse arrested Mr.. Hite AMI his
son. But as they knew nothing of
the boys, they cOnld not be held. 1t

TILE CONFEDERATE ESTATE.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-Several
applications have been made to the
Treasury Department for contracts to
collect the funds Of the late Confed-
crate States, now in the bank Of Eng
land. The amount is about $780,
600. 1t is said that Jefferson Davis,
Judah P. Benjamin, and three other
trustees, draw interest on this fund
regularly. The United States gov
eminent will make a direct applica-
ton to the British government in re-
latiOn to this matter.

Snnfhe1.ners in New York.

a New York letter says the South
ern element in New York increases
every year. The migration thither
was greatest just after the war, when
everything in the South was adrift,
but it has continued steadily ever
since, though in smallerdegree, and
Gotham now has a southern colony
big enough to make up a population
for a pretty large town. Quite a
number of the brokers in the Stock
Cotton and Produce Exchange are
Southern men, and a good many of
them have made themselves well of,
and are on solid ground, both socially
and financially.

THE IRISH LAND COURTS.

THE IRISH LAND COURTS.
DUBLIN. Nov. 1.-The farmers are
fOcking into the land court. Every
day it is made more evident that the
people are becoming reconciled to
the advantages Of the Land Act, and
are in consequence becoming less ar
dent in the land league interest. The
offices on Saturday were so over
crowded that half the applicants
could not be accommodated. The
government has resolved to appoint
a very large number of sub Commits
siOners, as the four who are to sit
cannot possibly attend to the business.
The period for applications will be
extended, until ali have been served.
All cases which have been abandoned
by the solicitors of the land league
will be heard.

THE Connecticut boys were given

THE Connecticut boys were given
splendid reception in Charleston, S.
c. An old merchant of that city ex-
pressed himself thus:
"Why, if ten years ago any one
would have asserted that within a de-
cade of years Charlestonians would
invite regiment of Yankee militia,
with their Yankee Governor at their
head, to visit their city, and that up
on their acceptinSthat invitation the
wives, mothers, daughters and sweet
hearts of those men would not only
smile approval upon their visit, but
would crown them with flowers, and
exert themselves to their utmost to
entertain them, he would have been
laughed to scorn as a dreamer. And
yet that is what we have seen to-day.
Gentlemen, this spirit of amity will
do us more good than anything that
has ever happened to u.s."

money is used to carry on lawsuits,

The Rev. Father NJ. O'Connor. of
Ballybunion, County Derry, Ireland,

evening, before a small but apprecia-
tive audience, and was attentively
listened to during the whole lecture.
He came upon the platform with Mrs.
Parnell, and was introduced to the
audience by 7. C. E. Ecclesine.
Father O'Connor said that he had
passed his whole life among a rural
population in Ireland, and had the
best opportunity to be acquainted
with the results of the landlord rule.
He gave many instances of suffering
among the peasants and of the wick
edness of the landlords. There was
a great deal Of applause and great
shouting at the mention of Chas. S.
Parnen. Father O'Connor ended by
declaring that though he believed the
effect of the Land Bill would be to
turn half the tenantry of Ireland into
owners within ten years, yet the
Land League was determined never,
under any circumstances, to lay down
its arms until Ireland should be legis-
latively free.

THE PRESENT CONDITION OF
POLITICS.
PHILADELPHIA, July 18th, 1881.

Editor Sentinel g. The influence
constantly at work inside the two
ruling parties have brought about
such unexpected changes in the line
of conduct and sentiment of the
standard-bearers within the past few
years, that the rank and file are occa-
sionally made to wonder where they
really stand-whether they are on
the fence, or with the Democratic or
Republican column During the
presidential campaign, the real issues
at stake were SO nicely blended that
the microscopic eye of a rank parti-
IAN was needed to discern the differ
ences existing between the two nearly
equal divisions of the voting people.
The last municipal election was also
preceded by the same admixture of
indiscerptible ingredients; the Re
publican party having been elon-
gated as though it were an elastic
cord, and the Democrats showing
their adaptation to the strategic phe-
nomena by getting into shape after
the manner of a collapsed telescope.
