From Mistress to Chambermaid.
At the Atlas hotel on Rockaway
beach, it is said, a comedy woman of
about 40 years is employed. whose his
tory is highly romantic. A writer to
the Albany Press states that her
maiden name was Van Bmen, and
that she was born in Schodack, Rens-
seiaer. county. President Van Buren,
was brother of her grand father, and
other relatives were of favored ances'
try. While receiving an education a,
the Willard seminary she became in
fatuated with q man named Elliott
whom she married despite her parents
protest. With Elliott she removed to
California. There her husband. who
had considerable money, engaged in
stock speculations. and with such daz-
cling success that Mrs. Elliott partici-
pated. Each investment yielded gold
Ell returns. and the Elliotts soon be-
came noted for their princely hospital
ity. elegant residence. horses. carriage,
and other manifold comforts of the
wealthy. As usual in such cases,
there was a sudden turn Of fortunes
wheel. Mr.. Elliott came out of one
mining speculation with SO 600 less
than when he entered. Other losses
followed, and to meet the demand OF
creditors real estate. horses, diamonds,
and even costly clothes were fruitless-
ly sacrificed. The victim of stocks
was taken i'll and died. Mrs Elliott
proceeded to Ne~ York, which she
reached in destitute circumstances
This was two years ago, and since
then she has eked out an existance as
best she could. Relatives have offer.
ed her home. but her proud spirit re-
fused the shelter. Last week she was
employed as chambermaid at the At
las hotel, where, in a calico wrapper,
gingham apron. and white cap. she
appeared as contented as when rolling
in wealth on the Pacific slope. A
New York merchant, acquainted with
her history, offered his hand in mar.
riage. She refused on the ground
that she made death-bed promise to
her unfortunate husband that she
would never marry again.

TUESDAY EVENING. JAN. 10. 1882.
Sheen on the Farm.

Germantown Telegraph.
Fifty to sixty years ago every iafm'
however small, had its little flock OF sheep.
to supply the family wool and the material
for knitting the family stockings. In
almost every farmhouse the humming OF
the big wool-wheel, which manufactured
the warn, could he heard at some distance
from the house, and everywhere stockings
were being knitted for family use. They
were not very fine, but they were thick
and warm and wore two or three times as
long as the present machine-made article.
This little flock of sheep was always the
pets of the farm. Their feed cost next TO
nothing. Pasture fields which cattle
could no longer graze were Just
what the sheep preferred. Every hole
and corner they nipped clear Of grass
and in the winter the poorest hay and q
little salt kept them in a good condition,
while the lambs not only kept up the
stock, but furnished all the mutton re.
uuired in the family. The knitting ma
chine had not yet made its appearance,
and each family which could not afford to
supply its wants from the costly foreign
manufactured articles was forced thus TO
provide for itself. The little girls in
family were tausht to knit as soon as
they were able to handle the needles,
and hence the cost Of the supply Of stock
ings for the family was quite inconsider-
able-in fact, it took no ready cash from
the farmers pocket.
Now, the keeping Of sheep is ex.
tensiyely pursued, especially ON large
farms, where portions Of the land is hllly,
rocky, and unfit for cultivation. Here
sheep thrive finely, and where systematic
ally managed they are the most profitable
branch of the entire farm. The best breeds
are used-or ough. to be, that is-for both
wool and carcass and We may add that
Just AS sheep husbandry is better and bet:
ter understood, the more extensively vii!
it be introduced. Our Western and
Northwestern farmers, where this
branch is rapidly increasing be-
yomd other sections, are abundant
Iy satisfied that in many respects the
flock of sheep is the best helper, not only
in filling the purse, but in keeping up the
condition of the land, without really any
actual expense, that is within reach OF the
husbandman. One thing should. there
fore, be remembered by farmers who have
suitable land at their command, that they
make a very great mistake and submit to
an annual loss of more importance than
they imagine in the absence Of good and
beautiful flock of improved sheep brows
ing upon the hills,
