Read advertisement in this issue Of the
leading Wholesale Millinery house of Pitts
burgh Messrs. Porter u Donaldson. They
have recently leased and taken possession of an
elegant new building, (within three doors Of
the Seventh Avenue Hotel,) 260 262 and 2G4
Liberty Street.
They were compelled to make this move in
order to secure room for their rapidly growing
business. In doing SO they have gained not
only double the amount Of room they formerly
had but one Of the most elegant and complete
business houses TO be found in any city. Doing
an exclusively Wholesale trade, and that n
very large one, buying always for prompt cash,
they are able to offer great inducements to
close buyers as any New York house possibly
can.
Quite feature with them is their manu-
featuring department, where the latest ideas IN
Paris Bonnets are copied at moderate price
for the fine millinery trade, and where large
quantities of cheaper goods are trimmed Tor the
merchant trade.
in addition 10 Millinery, they make spec.
ialty of novelties in Ladies neck wear, and OF
C0rsetts, controlling some extra good makes,
particularly the CORDED Sid and DIR. War
ner's "Coraline."
From the experience that Messrs. Porter &
Donaldson have had in catering to the wants
of this section the facilities they have for get
ting the latest styles and inside prices, the en-
viable success that they have achieved, and the
reputation they enjoy for honorable dealing
we cheerfully commend them TO readers,
who deal in their class of goods, and say re-
member their new Nos, 260, 262 and 264
Liberty Street.

Sergeant Mnson's Case.

WASHINGTON, MARCH l5'-Mr j.
G. Bigelow, attorney of Sergeant
Mason, has prepared petition for
writ of habeas corpus on the ground
that the court martial had no jurisdic-
diction in time of peace that, even if
the court had jurisdiction, it exceeded its
powers in imposing the sentence afOr-
said, as the sentence is in excess of any
punishment authorized by law, and
void on that account. The petition
recites that the statute authorizes the
Imprisonment alone. The sentence
imposes both fine and Imprisonment
besides dishonorable discharge from
the military service of the United
States.
Mr.. Bigelow visited the prisoner at
the barracks this morning, taking
with him the habeas corpus petition.
Mason signed and made oathto epeti-
ton and Mr. Bigelow subsequently
filed it and made formal application to
Judge Wylie, of the Criminal Court,
for the writ Just before the court
adjourned this afternoon, Judge Wylie
rendered decision denying the prayer
of the pete:ion, but he afterward recon-
sidered his judgment, and allowed Mr..
Bigelow to withdraw the papers, the
latter wishing to to present them to the
Court in Banc tomorrow. In the
meantime Mason has been sent in irons
to the Albany Penitentiary under
guard of four soldiers.
Sergeant Mason, referring to an ar
ticle printed here yesterday, says IN
card addressed to the Critic:
Il must say that the court was
sworn in my presence. | was asked
if | had any objection to any officer
all in obedience to law. Mr.. Blgelow
was not present at that time, yet they
sent for him, and he came in after all
had been sworn. / had made no plea,
only / wanted to plead guilty, for l
knew that the court would find ME
guilty, and ! am sentenced to eight
years in the Penitentiary for missing
that wretch Guiteau" In a postscrip
to his letter he says; II must say
that | do not want to be pardoned bv
no Guiteau President. All l ask is for
my darling wife and baby to be placed
beyond want. Right is right, and
wrong is wrong. Yet, if | wasn't
right, / could not say that | am treat
ed.wrong. Call me what they may, all
want is fair play. Mr. Bigelow is
great man: he defended all he could,
yet look at the sentence of eight long
years at hard labor in prison. That is
enough for me-"

Buried Alive.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo, March 16.-Five
boys, aged from nine to eleven, lost
their lives late this afternoon by the
caving in of playhouse, which they
had dug in bank in the north part OF
the city. The boys attending school
in that vicinity commenced digging
last fall, and having penetrated few
feet into the bank dug out room six
feet high and about six by eight in
dimensions. At 4:30 o'clock this after
noon, after school, number of hoys re-
paired to the cave for their usual frolic,
when the bank caved in upon FIVE of
them, crushing and smothering them
to death, some seventeen feet of earth
piling upon them. The alarm was
given and a great crowd of citizens
soon collected, and at G:30 the lifeless
bodies of the five boys had been dug
out.

yEun's IngrNtitude.

This is an ungratefnl world to say
the least. A man will act like luna
tic when he has the Itching Piles, and
declare that he knows he can't live an
other day, yet he applies Swayne's
Ointment, the intense itching is allayed
ut once. he gets cured, and goes down
to the lodge without one whit of graf
itude. When asked why he looks so
cheerful, he lodges the question by an
Indifferent answer. Its just like q
man though. isn't it?

How TO Smoke Hams.

A smoke-house should be well ven-
tilated, and the hams hung at least
eight or ten feet above the fire, end
the smoke given out in moderate quan-
titles, and come from corn-cobs or
hickory wood. It ig important that
the hamq ae kept cool and dry through
the whole operation. Proper ventila-
ton of the smoke-house secures this.
If they become moist by improper
ventilation, or are placed 80 near tie
fire as to be heated, their flavor Is
greatly injured. d.-Pioughmdn.

Early Rising.
Seed Time and Harvest.

1t is not necessary in this age of
the world, for the farmer to rise in
the middle of the night and begin
his work. This getting up so early
IN the morning is relic of barbar-
ism. 1t has made hundreds of
thousands of young men curse the
business. There is no need of get
ting up at 3 or o'clock in the win
ter morning The farmer who
persists in dragging his wife and
children from their beds ought to be
visited by missionary 1t is time
enough to rise after the sun has set
the example. For what purpose do
you get up? To feed the cattle
Why nat feed them more the night
before? It is a waste of life. In
the old times they used to get up
about 3 o'clock IN the morning, and
go to work long before the sun had
risen with healing upon his wings"
and as a just punishment they all
had the ague, and they ought
to have it now. The man
who cannot get living without riss
ing before daybreak ought to starve.
Eight hours day are enough for
any farmer to work, except In har>
vest lime. When you rise at four
and work till dark, what is life
worth? OF what use is all the i'm
proved MACH cry unless it tends to
give the farmer little more leisure?
What is harvesting now, compared
with what it was in the old time }?
Think of the days of reaping, of
grading, of raking and binding and
moving. Think of threshing with
the fail and winnowing with the
wind. And now think of the reaps
ers and mowers, the binders and
threashing machines, the plows and
cultivators, upon which the farmer
rides, protected from the sun. If,
with all these advantages, you cannot
get a living without rising in the
middle of the night, go into some
other business. You should not rob
your family of sleep. There is no
such thing as health without sleep.
Sleep until you are thoroughly
rested and restored When you
work, work; and when you get
through, take good, long and re-
freshing sleep.

Poor Old Missouri.
From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.


Mr. James, who is known to the
world as gentleman of eccentric
habits, has condescended to appear
in one of the courts of the State of
Missouri and declare that he is not
guilty of the crimes with which he
is charged, and an enormous crowd
of sympathizing and admiring fellow
citizens witnessed the act with shouts
of approval. Having done this, Mr..
James returned to the apartments
where he lodges at the expense of
the State, and will there continue
to receive the attentions of
the full,blooded aristocracy of Mis-
souri, until further notice His late
lamented brother is to have noble
monument erected to his memory,
and his widow has sent out invita-
tons to persons of distinction to at
tend the ceremonies of unwilling the
same. The monument is being
erected by a Muscatine DO con
tractor, and is plain shaft of red
Scotch granite, twelve feet high, and
costing $1,000. There viii be
speeches made at the unwilling, and
the exploits of the illustrious assassin
viii be the theme of the orators.
The history of these two brothers is
a remarkable commentary of nine
teenthscentury civilization in Mis-
souri,
