and It was read by the clerk. 1t was quite
long and rehearsed in detail the claims
and plans of the Peruvian Company. The
letter referred to enclosures, naming the
prospectus Of the company, the draft of an
agreement with Peru, the chain of title of
the Peruvian Company, and stated that it
was deemed best to lay the whole matter
before the Presidents and to avail Of such
suggestions as he might deem pro-
per to be made in the premises,
and that no difficulty was anticipated
Ia a settlement OF all the differences
without asking further government aid than
that already indicated. 1t spoke OF the
magnitude OF the interests involved, and
estimated the value of the guano at one
thousand million of dollars, and indicated
that eX President Grant would be offered
the Presidency Of the company, and that its
board of directors would include gentlemen
equally well known and capable. The wit
ness was unwell and to-day's examination
was brief.
A FIGHT IN EXECUTIVE SESSION.
The Senate in executive session confirm

as Collector of the customs district OF VIII
mington, N. G. The greater part of to days
executive session was consumed In a con-
test over the nomination of Thomas n.
Cooper as Internal Revenue Collector for
the Sixth district of North Carolina. His
confirmation was earnestly opposed by the
two North Carolina Senators, on the ground
that the appointments is obnoxious to them
aud the majority Of the people
OF the State. The vote on the
question of confirmation resulted: yeas o.
nays a. but motion to reconsider the re-
lection was Immediately entered, and all
efforts TO lay this motion on the table were
successfully resisted by resort to filibus-
tering tactics, and the Senate adjourned
without fiual action. The vote was strictly
party one, except that Senator Davis, of
Illinois, united with the Democrats In
voting against CoOper's confirmation, and
Messrs. Cameron, of Pennsylvania, and Lo-
gan did not vote with the Republicans, but
were understood to be paired with each
other, although in what manner was not
stated.

At the opening of Shepherds testimony
to-day before the Foreign Affairs Commit
tee Shipherd waived his own objection to
naming the mysterious Senator, and said it
was Mr.. Blair, of New Hampshire. Blair
and another gentleman were the only Sena-

in the affairs of the Peruvian Company, or
who had been approached on the subject.
He declined to name the other man or to
say whether he was In the Senate or House.
Shipherd then produced a copy Of his

FATE.

Two shall be born the whole wide world
apart,
And each speak in different tongues and
have no thought
Each of the others being and no heed.
Aud then o'er unknown seas to unknown
lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death I;
And, all unconsciously, shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one
end
That one day, out of darkness, they shall
meet
And read life's meaning in each others eyes.
And two shall walk some narrow way Of
life,
So nearly side by side that should one turn
Ever so little space to right or left
They needs must stand acknowledged face
to face,
And yet with wistful eyes that never meet,
With cropping hands that never clasp, and
lips
Calling in vain to ears that never hear,
They seek each other all the weary days
Aud die unsatisfed and this is Fate.

Rules for Health.

am no doctor, quack, or pill vendor
yet, have had pretty good long life
and happy one. May / not, there
fore just give my simple rules for
health, in hopes that some poor travel
er on the up and down hill of life,
may look at them and be benefited by
them:
1. Keep in the supshlne just as much
as possible A man will not thrive
without the sunbeam.
2. Breath as much fresh air as your
business will permit.
3. Be strictly temperate. You can
not break organic laws, or any law,
with impunity.
4. Keep the feet always warm and
the head cool. Disease and death be-
gin at the feet more often than we
think.
5. Eat white bread when you can
not get bran.
6. If out of order, see which of the
above rules you have not observed,
then rub yourself over with a towel
saturated with salt water and well dried
and begin upon the rules again.
Z. Look ever on the bright side,
which is the heavenly side Of life.
This is far better than any medicine.
These seven simple rules, good for the
valid or invalid, if rightly observed,
would save, apprehend, a deal of
pain, prolong your life, and just so far
as health goes, make it worth having.

Wanted an Understanding.

An Illinois merchant who was taking
powder in bulk from a Chicago firm,
called at headquarters the other day
to say there was something wrong
with the goods.

"we make the best article made In the
West"
Il think we ought to have a more

dealer. "Now, then, you adulterate
before you send to me, then | aduller-
ate before ship, then the retailer ad.
ulterates before he sells, and the CON
sumer can't be blamed for growing.
| wanted to see if we couldn't agree on

"What do you mean?"
"Why, suppose you put in twenty
per cent Of chalk, then | put in ten
per cent of whining, then the retailer
puts in thirty per cent of -four; that
gives consumer forty per cent of bak-
ing powder, and unless he is born hog
he'll be perfectly satisfied. You see,
if you adulterate fifty per cent on the
start, and adulterate as much more
and the retuler adulterates as much as
both together, it's mighty hard for tie
consumer to tell whether he is invest
ing in baking powder or putty. w,
must give him something for his none,

Accommodations for Fowls.

Accommodation and supplies mean
something for the comfort and conven-
ience, as well as the necessities of the
fowls themselves, and those who take
care of them. When house is built
for the fowls, give it to them alone.
Do not huddle the geese and ducks in
with them, or make a pig-5ty of it.
Keep the farm stock separate, and al
low each to have its own place. Many
times there is space under outbuildings
that is dry and warm, and offers good
shelter from storm, as well as a roost
at night for such poultry as ducks and
geese that usually sit on the ground at
night. These places should be kept free
from the annoyance of other fowls.
Each variety of bird should be kept
in separate apartments, aud to do this
there must be ample room. Good ac-
commodations require warm shelter
and a southern exposure of glass for
the cold months, as well as ample roost-
ing places, well ordered drinking yes
sells and nest boxes. All should be on
liberal and extensive plan; the more
liberal, according to the number Of
fowls kept, the better the success. The
birds must have opportunity of scratch
ing and exercising. Country Gentle

A WOMAN'S MANAGEMENT.

Mr.. Ezra Newt0ns year closed on
Christmas or rather he began work
with his employer on Christmas. The
second year closed on Friday, and on
Christmas day, which WAS Sunday, Mr..
Newton was looking over his cash ac-
counts for the year. "Well," asked
his wife, chow do you come out ?"
81 fnd," said her husband, "that my
expenses during the last year have been
thirty-seven cents over thousand dol
lars"
"And your income has been a thou
sand dollars?"
Yes; | guessed pretty we'll, didn't
I%
"Do you think it managing well to
exceed your inceme ?" asked his wife,
whats thirty-seven cents ?" he
asked lightly.
"Not much, to be sure, but still
something. 1t seems to me we ought
to have saved, instead of falling be-
hind"
"But how can we save on this salary,
Elizabeth. We haven't lived extrava-
gantly. Sill it seems to have taken it
all"
Perhaps there is something in which
we might retrench. Suppose you men
ton some of the items"
"The most important is house rent,
$3.50, and articles of food, $500"
"Just half"
eyes, and you'll admit that we can't
retrench them. | like to live well ; |
had enough of poor bread before | mar
ried."
"Still we ought to save something
for rainy day, Ezra"
"IhAt would be like carrying an
umbrella when the sun shines"
"Still it is well to have an umbrella
in the house."
81 can't cOntroyert your logic, Eliza
beth, but am afraid | shan't be able
to save anything this year. When ]
get my salary raised it will be time
enough for that"
"Let me make you proposition,
said his wife. "You said ono-half Of
your income had been expended on ar
ticles of food. Are you willing to al
! low me that sum for that purpose ?"
You guarantee to pay all bills out
of it%
"Yes."
Then | shift the responsibility upor
you with pleasure. But can tell yol
before hand you won't be able to sav,
much out of it, and | shouldn't relisl
having any additional bills to pay. Al
| am paid every month, | will hsnC
you half the money"
The different characters of the hus
band and wife may be judged from tn,
conversation which has been recorded
Mr.. Newton had little prudence o
foresight. He lived chiefly for tn
present, and seemed to think that what
ever contingencies might arise in tn
future he would somehow be provide,
for Now, to trust to providence is
proper way, but there is a good deal c
truth in the old odage that God help
those who help themselves.
Mrs Newton, on the contrary, ha
been brought up in family which wa
compelled to be economical, and a
though she was indisposed to deny heI
self comforts, yet she felt that it Wa
desirable to procure them at fair rate
The time at which this conversatio
took place was at the commencement
of the second year of their marie
life.
The first step Mrs. Newton took o
accepting the charge of the househol
expenses was to institute the practiC
of paying cash for all articles that can
