MT. DavenpOrt's Eight Rules.

Benjamin k. Davenport, of Ms souri, has invented new system of family discipline. The system is very complete, but after an extended experience with it Mrs. Davenport thought it would be good plan to visit her mother Tn New York. To this Mir. Davenport agreed, after some demur, and then reduced his plan to writing in eight "rules for for the government of my wife's con duct while away from me. She was to speak to no one during the jour neY, conductors and porters only excepted; was to occupy room with her mother and never leave her, day or night, for five minutes at time for any reason whatever; to make no calls and receive none except from her brothers and thelr wives; not to walk or ride even with her own brothers; not to permit any person to be introduced to her, and if they were, to refuse to speak to them; to write every night q "full, true and exact account of everything" and ii nally, "if my wife cannot keep these rules in word and spirit l desire nev- CT to see her again" The woman, however, prevented satisfactory trial of the system by bringing suit for divorce and filing the strange document as evidence of intolerable severity,

Thirteen Years Without Sleep.

Thomas McElrath, of Marlboro, whose case attracted wide attention three years ago because he said he had not slept a wink in ten years, is still living without sleep. He says he has not closed his eyes in sleep for three years, and, indeed, that he has not slept at all for thirteen years. His neighbors say that they have
 been at his house at all hours of the
 day and night, and have invariably found him alert and wide awake. He is a member of the Presbyterian Church of the place, and his word is trusted by all who know him, He is in good health and weighs over 200 pounds. Heis oyer seventy, and does not work, except on small jobs about his house. He says he takes mo comfort at alP' in life, but he has given up taking all medicine, and ''waits the coming of the Lord. ."-

Washington Post Herr Krupp has engaged 5000 more workmen, making the force now employed at his vast founderies at Essen l3,000 men, exclusive'of those employed at the telegraph stations, chemical lab ratory, photographic, lithographic, printing and book binding establish ments. Himself, the gentlest and most philanthropic of men, he is the patriarch of a great colony of per sons. He provides them with schools, libraries and amusements, and takes care of them in sickness, calamity and old age. Despite the fact that he has invented engines of destruc- tion that are frightful in their opera
 tons, he has done more to preserve the peace of Europe than ail of the peace congresses. He has made na tions afraid to attack each other The curlous paradox is presented of a steady decrease III the ratio of nor tality in the time of war since the introduction of long-rangc guns During the Franco Prussian war the loss of life in battle was seven pel cent, less than during the Napoleon
 ;c campaigns. The deadly power oI the guns constructed by Herr KrupE are such as to keep men at defens iblc distance from one another.

The bill constituting the Agricul- tural Department one of the eXecu- tive departments of the Government passed the House by an overwhelm- ing majorit-only seven votes being recorded in the negative-and there is every probability that similar favorable action awaits the measure
 in the Senate. The agricultural and kindred interests of the country are certainly entitled to this legislative recognition, and there IS no reason to doubt that the new department will in time become of immense ser vice to the people. Its usefulness as at present constituted, is rapidly advancing and with the enlarged scope of operation proposed by the bill, it must become of correspond ingly greater and more widely diff fused utility to the material wei fare of the country. Who will be- come the Granger member of the Cabinet, in case the blll becomes a law and the commissioner Is raised to the dignity of full-dedged sccre- tary, has been the subject of little speculation, probably for the reason that no one seems to have thought of any body in this connection, ex- ceptiug the present popular and most efficient incumbent.-Wa ashlng ton Post.

A Complicated Kentucky Mar
 rage.

On Thursday, April 27. there was a marriage of more than usual in- terest in Madisonville, Ky. About five years ago, Mir. E. l.. Hendricks, then citizen of this place, was se- cretly married in New Albany to Miss Maria B. Morton, well known belle of MadisonvIlle and of south west Kentucky. Hendricks took the first train West and Miss Morton returned home. One friend only knew of the marriage, and he held the marriage certificate locked up in hls safe. The plan was for Hen ducks to make sufficient to support a wife, and then to have preparations made fer a grand wedding, and the officiating minister, instead of be- ginning the marriage ceremony, should produce the certificate and announce, to the amaZement of par ents, friends and all the company, that the couple had been married for years. This plan was not car ried out. At the end of three years, for some reason known only to the parties themselves, a divorce was ob- tained. This, of course, made the matter public. Up to this time not even the parents themselves dreamed their daughter was married. And now two years after the divorce, Mr. Hendricks and Mss Morton are mar ried over again. The reconciliation was accomplished by letter, and on Thursday of last week the groom went on from St. Louis. The meet. ing and tue new marriage were graphic, and san better be imagined than described. Miss Morton having recently been confirmed Ill the Epis copal church, the marriage was ac- cording to the ancient and solemn rites of that church, and was per formed by the Rev. R. $. Barrett, of Henderson. This time the happy groom bore his fair bride away to his Western home.

The Inroads of Civilization.

A very graphic and pathetic des- cription of the inroads soon to be made by civilization is given by an old man in Tennessee: "But this hyur country's all a goin' to change. It's goin' to be most eyerlastln'ly improved, you see. l shan't never be improved; I'm too old. But the old ways is coming to an end. They's men buyin' up thousan's of acres of this land. They'll be railroads built directly, hither an van, more'n'll do anybody any good. They'll cut of the woods for fuel an lumber, an they'll be mines an quarries up hyur, they say An they'll be mean, dirty lit tie towns laid out, all about. Then, instid O people drinkin little healthy whiskey, as we've always done, they'll be forty times as much miserable pison stuff sold an drunk, an whoever drinks it'll begin to steal an lie. I reckon they'll be some mighty fine houses built some
 eres along this river, an they'll put big scientific locks on to their doors, an thieves will come mp from Gin cinnater and Chatnoog, an break into 'em. They aint never been a lock to a door in these mountains. But they's goin' to be the all-firedest Improvements about hyur, an I s'pose our people'll parn to steal too; haf to keep up an live. An they'll be some O them city women hyur, l reckon, from them big places. with their fine feathers, an their dresses draggin' on to the ground, an they'll be the devil to pay among our young men. That's what they call civilization, ain'tit, stranger? I tell you this country will soon be i'm provin' like hell, but 1 shan't live to see much of it, 1 reckon"

A Relic of the Great Whiskey
 Ring.

Gen. John Macdonald, a member of the old St. Louis whisky ring was in town to-day. It will be remem- bered that Macdonald was a king bee in the ring; was convicted and served eighteen months in the peni- tentiary. He is now travelling about the country selling his book entitled, "The Secrets of the Great Whisky Ring" He is now fifty three years age, but bears his years well, and is rather prominent looking man yet. He sold several of his books here, and says that he is meeting with sue cess, though it is great come down from the millions that he once had to peddling books.-Aurora, Ind, Correspondence Cincinnati Commercial

Washington Post: Emerson and Thoreau once conceived that bril- liant and original idea of paying q formal call on Hawthorne, when he lived in Concord Accordingly they went. When the :hree spirits loi- tered on the banks of Walden-W later, and went fishing and boating and day dreaming together, they were the best of comrades. But "call'' disconcerted all of them. Hawthorne sat bolt upright and propounded questions, which Thoreau answered accurately and epigrammatically {, Emerson laid down axioms, which Hawthorne and Thoreau commended or briefly dissented from. Presently silence prevailed. A half hour pass ed in silence, and then the visitors left. Upon discussing it afterwards, they all three agreed in pronopncing it one of the most disagreeable wis. it's ever paid or received.

Senator Hill'S Consolation.

Senator Ben Hill, of Georgla, whose physicians allow him but twelve months to live, contemplates his approaching death with the res ignation of genuine philosopher. II have lived tfty-eight years," he says, "and l suppose no man ever lived fifty weight happier years. It may be best that they be all" MT. Bronson Alcott himself could have uttered nothing more worthy of the spirit of the school of philosophy to which he belongs than these words of the Georgla statesman.
