Stonewall's Daughter.

The Atlanta Constitution of a late
date says: The ballroom Of the
Kimball house was, last evening, devoted
TO one of the best and brightest occasions
that has made memorable the events of
the exposition Happily this was not
an event heralded by proclamations or re-
quiring the aid of general orders, but was
a spontaneous ovation from friends and
admirers to the lovely daughters Of one Of
the grandest men of all history.
The most significant fact in the course
of the complimentary ball rendered to
Miss Julia Jackson, the daughter Of
s'Stonewall" jackson, was that not 4 state
in the Union was unrepresented among
those who came freely toofier to her their
tributes of esteem and everence for the
valor and memory Of her illustrious father
This record was kept by Maj. r. A.
Bacon, whose devotion 20 her father is
only egualled by his desire to make the
sojourLs ef the daughter pleasant in our
midst
Miss jackson was, of course, the cynos-
ure of all eyes and xas the reeipien. Of
many compliments. She is charming
young lady and truly the daughter Of the
Sonth.

pRnsrEcTs Fog PEAcHss.-Some people
are very much worried over the fear that
our peach crop for the coming summer VIII
he a complete failure. Their are n grounds
for fear as yet. True the very mid weather
xe have had 30 flr has caused peach buds to
warm a little, but We must have A very great
deal more severe weather than there Is any
probability Of our having, to inIure them IN
the least. Peaches have never been killed
in this valley in the bud excepting IN the
extraordinarily cold winter of 1873 when the
thermometer went down to 81 degrees below
zero. The thermometer now must go down
to l3 or lG before there is need for fear, and
that is not probable The real danger to our
peaches is after the buds have blown in the
spring. This Is the time Of year they are
always killed Let the thermometer 30 down
to few degrees below the freezing point
then and it's good bye to the delicious
peaches. Though even then they weather
the storm frequently, even when the ground
is frozen and frost upon it, being higher up
and consequently in a warmer atmosphere.
Let us not borrow trouble then but hope for
the best

VIZ cannot speak too highly of the
fearless manner in which the Walla Walla
STATESMAN advocates any measure IN
which this section is interested. Col.
Parker has never failed to urge the COM
pletion of the locks at the earliest posi-
BILE moment, and for his action in this re-
gard tho people of this section will al
ways look with respect upon him and his
paper.-Ddiies Times.
That's all right, brother; the interests
of the whole upper country are identical.
The STATESMAN is the peoples paper
and as such only does its duty in fear
lessly advocating their welfare, and the
Locks at the Cascades will benefit them
more than any other plan. The STATES
MAN is alone in this matter mp here, but
then it never had the reputation of being
afraid to speak out in meetin' and does
not propose to commence now.

An old story retold. July 4, lSG0, was
day at Barnum's never to be forgotten.
Crowds Humph The building WAS
packed like sardines in a box, and there
were hundreds -thousands-in the street
clamoring to get in. There were elbowine

hands. took the great Snowman TO one
sid. and said, Look at that !" 9Th fix
it - he said, and he made an effort TO get
some of those who had been in the build
ing for hours to go out The first person
to whom he suggested the propriety Of
making room for others was a big Irish
woman Of tre-mend-u-oas breadth and
flaming complexion. But she wouldn't
stir an inch. 'Iniade, won't 60, said
she 1--WE come to stay the day out, an
lave me dinnur IN me bag ere Then
the Snowman got another idea, and what
he did is a matter of common fame
When he got the word '.Egress" up over
the back door in big black letters rough
shod Jerseyman stared at in blank amaze
men.. 'fLook &c here, Sal, said he to
his sweetheart, 81 haIn't seen that ere

the crowd, and the way people went

Penalties Of Greatness.

Gen. Sherman wept the other day, after
hearing Marching Through Georgia
played at a banquet. His neighbor, Gen.
Grant, asked him "Wherefore dost
though weepl" The General answered
81 never was so all fired sorry that !
marched through Georgia as / have been
in the last FIVE years. Georgia be darned.
The people are good enough, but I'm lis
tening to that tune for the 3, 465, ,S57th
time How would You like Ulysses" he
continued, "to hear that Internal melody
over three million timesl They have
played it to me from Maine to Texas, and
Florida to Toronto" and here he wept
afrcsh.
But Gen. Grant quietly pat.ed the here
on the sholder and said SHERMAN, it is
only one os the penalties of greatness.
| suffer worse than youdo-Ive had seven
million cigars given to me because people
think like to smoke, S24 bull pups, and
more horses than can count. Sherman,
continued the General, whenever | see
horse, cigar, or a bull pup, feel Just
as badly as you do, but never give way
to my feelings. II sell en-"
"Yes," answered Sherman between his
sobs, "you can sell cigars, bnll pups, and
horses, but can't sell that id tune for
five cents"

APoor Devil rs Well as a Fraud.

Mr. Hayes says he is not rich, and We
are obliged to believe him. But the ques-
tion arises. What became of his money
What Gid he do with the $3.50, 600 left him
by his uncle And what did he do with
the $50, 900 saved out of his four Years
salary He is not an extravagant man by
any means. He refused to contribute to
the Mrs. Garfield fund, and to the mon
ument subscription He does not drink,
and he was never known to play in games
of chance. His household habits have
been known to be very parsimonious. If
he is poor to-day, how did he get rid Of
the $500, 900 which he inherited and drew
from the Treasury That is the great
question.
Perhaps it has gone to foreign missipn-
ary uses. Perhaps it was invested in
stocks, and frittered away. Perhaps it
was contributed to the conscience fund,
or invested tor MIR. IIlden 8 benefit. Per-
haps the men who stole the vote of Louis
lana blackmailed him and compelled him
to close their mouths with large bribe
But in whatever way it was expended,
the lesson remains that money not hon
estly earned or acquired disappears after
while. The 500, 900 from the Treasury
for fouryears' salary as President belonged
to another man. Mr.. Hayes may have
prt Sl50, 900 of this with what remained
of his inheritance, and As fraud vitiates
everything-eve contract may have
destroyed the whole pile or caused it to
melt away, just as Mr.. Hayes himself has
melted from the public gaze.

A dispatch from Matamorss. Pennsyi-
vaniA, relates the following story: Inc
death il announced Of Nine Laura
Sweit.er, at Port Jervis, Just across the
Delaware river from here, which recalls
one of the saddest and mast remarkable
careers ever recorded The story OF her
life, as toli by Mime Sxei,zer, rcsds hke
. romance, and seems almost too strange
to be true. Laura Won Puffultz SteIn-
burg. daughter of Baron Frederick Otto
yor PufFnisz Steinburg, was born at MS
mar, in Mecklcnburg, Germany. on the
10Th Of October, 1873. Her father was
OF an ancient and highly honored family,
and Laura was younger daughter. She
was given all the advantages OF an expen-
sive education In music and the German
language At ten years of age she met
a very poor young noble with very long
and honorable name, the Count Freder-
ick Kios,edt Schleswick Sweitzer- The
young man was handsome and pretty well
educated, but his poverty was barrier TO
their union. Laura felt that she loved
him so deeply that she could marry no
one bu. him. Her old father would not
listen to her entrea.ies, and hnaily nc
sent her to Altona, town near Ham
burg, on the Elbe river, where he placed
her in convent until she became cured
of her passion She contrired to let her
lover know where she was. snd thither he
followed her. Having no money, he ap-
Piled for and obtained a position as under
gardner in the convent, at modest COM
pensation. He and Laura were thus en-
abled to meet daily, and affairs were go
ing on s~imminsly, when the old Baron
Steinburg, having found that SWeltzer
had left Wismar, suspected the true state
Of affairs and came post haste to Altoona
He arrived in time to catch his daughter
in an arbor in the convent garden con-
yersing with the forbidden lover. The
old Baron and the young man exchanged
hard words, and duel, in which the
Baron was severely wounded, resulted.
Young Swe:tzer and his sweetheart fled
from Altona- were married and came to
America, where they landed at Castle
Garden, New York, almost penniless.
Sweitzler obtained employment, and they
lived comfortably for several years.
Finally his health failed, and the couple
came to Port Jervis, N. Y, and took up
their abode in little shanty i'll suburb
known as "Nigser Hollow" Madame
Sweitzer made enough money to keep
them alive by peddling matches and no.
tions among the farmers, and 10y begging
during the winter. She frequently walked
twenty miles day, and on recent oe-
casion took part in a pedestrian contest
in Port Jervis, where she made record
of ninety eight miles in tweniy-fou
hours, and earned considerable money.
During her begging excursions she told
the above story of her life. She was
known in Pike county as "Meeshy Man.
mie," or "rhe Countess" Her death was
horrible She was trying to steal
ride on the night freight train to Middle
town, thirty FIVE miles south Of Port Jer-
Wis, when she fell under the engine and
was so crushed that her body was hardly
recognizable. Her husband died few
years ago, and she has been buried be-
side him in Laurel Grove Cemetery.

Il GooD Man GoNE-Ex-Gov. JOSEPH
Gale, who dates his residence in Oregon from
1884, died at his home in Eagle Valley, Un-
ion County, ON the 18th of December. He
was one of the three commissioners who con-
stituted the only government of what is now
Washington Territory, prior to the organiza-
ton OF Oregon Territory, He was one Of
the first settlers in Washington county and
built the first sawmill IN that county early
in the fOrties, On what is know as Gales
creek, small tributary of the Tualatin.
Gales peak, an abrupt and slightly point Of
the Coast range foothills, near the the old
mill site, is well known to nimrods Of the
present day. Mr.. Gale was a worthy cit.
izen, and frontiersman Of a type rapidly
vanishing from the earth The record is
silent as to his exact age. but it must have
bordered close upon four score and ten years.

Our WHEAT ALL GoSE--There Is no
wheat At present at our depot for shipment
creeping what is stored In Schwabacher
Bros. warehouse. At present We cannot
state exactly the amount shipped from this
country to the sea, but all our readers know
what an immense amount If has been. Suf-
fee it 10 say that with the old facilities OF
shipmeht-the old narrow gauge aud river
reyime-the crop of last year could not pos
sibly have keen removed even before July
next. Here is another one of the foot prints
Of that vile monopolist Willard that some Of
our exchanges talks about in such \ scanda-
Ious way. Had in not been for his energy,
experience and will. wheat by the thousands
Of bushels would have been laying at our
depot on the ground rotting as it used to do.
Schwabacher Bros have in their warehouse
bu. 1900 tons Of whest, which, with all the
other belated lots Of farmers will 20 forward
at once. This is speaking volumes for our
country's progrsss. Never before could We
have said this of transportation company.

8. What species Of farming is chiefly
carried ON :
In the eastern half of the Territory the
production is almost entirely wheat and
horses and cattle, wheat greatly prepond-
Grating. In the southern, or Columbia
rryer. counties the products are more va
ried, and consist of grain, STOCK, fruits
vegetables, and the like. On the Sound
more oats are raised, and hops, potatoes,
hay, poultry, etc. Cheese and butter max
ing are attracting deal of attention In all
the country comprising the western half
OF the Territory, and no better climate
and region for the purpose can be found
anywhere. Flax growing has not yet
fairly begun, but i; is certain one day to
oe staple product of this sectlon' ns
nuch as it is at present in ireland.
9. Is the population Of Washington un-
dergoing a steady and satisfactory III
crease
Utmost assuredly is. In 1853, when
the Territory was organized, the poPula'
ton numbered about 1900, which III
1850 had become IL 900, in 1870 1900,
and in 1880 5000. And this despite the
taking from us Of the whole of Idaho and
a part of Montana. Adding them we had
in 1880 about 10, 600 inhabitants, and in
1852 We must have 10000, but without
them We have not less than 5000

reading the nov famous letter Of Presi-
dent Garfield to Judge Payne in which
he complimented him for brushing
away the network Of sophistries sith
which it has of late years been customary
to envelope the plea of insanity when set
up in excuse for crimea
Judge Cox at Has began the reading
OF his decision, which begins with
lengthy review Of the subject of jmis-
diction. He summed up the question
that jurisdiction is complete in the place
where the wound is completed, conse-
quently this court has full ooguizance of
the ofIense Judge Cox next took up the
question OF the legal test of insanity and
decided that knowledge and appreciation
of the difference between right and wrong
must be taken as the correct test.
Judge Cox concluded his decision at II,
having consumed an hour and forty min
utes with rapid speaking on every mAteri-
al point. His rulings we're decidedly
against the prayers of the defense. The
only grain of comfort for the prisoner
was offered when Judge Cox reached the
question of reasonable doubt Upon this
subject he said, II shall not charge the
Jury to acquit if they find reasonable
doubt as to any one element, but | shall
take into consideration and charge them
relative to the elements, and that if from
all circumstances and evidence they have
reasonable doabt of the commission by
defendant of the crime as charged, then
they shall aequit.
As Judge Cox finished speaking. Gui-
teau called cut: al am perfectly satisfied
with that exposition of law"
After consultation between counsel,
court adjourned until Thursday morning,
when Davidge will make the opening ar
gument to the jury for the prosecution.
