LIEUT.. GEO. W. DE LONG.

The subject of this sketch, Lieutenan'
Geo. w. DE Long was born in New
York City, in 1874. He was appointed
an acting midshipman in 1861, and in
the ordinary course Of promotion he
was made lieutenant in 1869. In 1879
he was appointed navigator of the relief
ship JuntGtd, sent TO the arctic seas in
search OF the survivors of the PotdriS.
The story of the loss of the Jeanette,
and Of the safe arrival Of a part of her
officers and crew at the mouth of the
Lena River, in Siberia, after boat and
sledge journey unparalleled in the his
tory of arctic adventure, has been be.
fore the public for months. Societies
have eagerly waited, since her depart
ure for the frozen seas in 1879, for news
of her whereabouts, and the suspense of
the past year is prominent in the public
mind.
The Jednnette was crushed in ice on
the 23d of last June, more than six
months ago For three months the
brave Commander De Long and his
party were struggling with the terrors
and dangers of the frozen seas before
they could reach human habitations,
and three months more have elapsed
while the news Of their escape traversed
the barren wastes Of Siberia, and finally
reached st. Petersburg, from whence it
was transmitted in all haste to every
part of the civilized world. But beyond
the mere fact that the JeM1nette is lost,
and that most if not all of her crew are
saved nothing is yet known of the thrill
ing adventures through which this gal
liant ship and her brave company have
passed. The story of nearly two years
of arctic experience is yet to be told-a
story which is awaited with anxious i'm.
patience.

THUMBS in Hogs.

have heard and read, says n cores.
pondent of the National Lice Stock
Journal, Chicago, great deal about
the cure of thumps in pigs. The COM
plant usually comes from those who
have their sows overfat ut narrowing, or
keep them confined in small pens or
yards. tho sows having perhaps been
ovcrfed for fairs, think breeders mako
a sad mistake in feeding their best brood
sows for the "show pen" We are com.
PEELED by most fair associations to either
show our sows in pig, or TO swear they
have produced u litter within the year;
they are fed, likewise, TO the detriment
of the next generation Of pigs, Where
sows are fed so high before farrowing,
and kept In close pens, as they are COM
PEELED TO be during the fair, II is very
injurious to the constitution OF the pigs.
Let your brood sows have access to n
grass, clover, or rye pasture the year
round; give them plenty Of fresh dirt
and water, and don't feed them too rich
food Get the best boar (of whatever
breed you choose), always q pure-Jrea
one, and you can raise healthy pigs, that
viii make good feeders, to return n fair
percentage ior your labor and feed.

No New Jokes.

There is absolutely nothing new in
jokes. They never die. The jokes that
are familiar to us are those which our
ancestors enjoyed. They are found in
the most ancient literature that re-
mains, and in hieroglyphics of the ruin
ed monuments of dead empires. Their
unchanged existence through these ages
does not allow that these, like the earth
and man, may have been created by a
process of development; they must have
been created absolutely, AT some stage
of the work of creation the jokes were
launched into being, and they have con-
tinued to revolve by their own gravity,
the same as the planets. None of them
can be annihilated any more than mat
ter, nor can another be added, No per-
son who attempts originality can get re-
cognized rs wit, but any man can,
who has talent for memorizing the old
stock jokes and funny stories, and for
working them over on all occasions

Absence of Newspauers.

The sojourner in Venice wonders sad
ly how the people exist without news
papers. Yet they manage to do so in
very comfortable fashion, II appearances
may be trusted. The red-fAced Vene-
tian sits lazily under the half-drawn cur
tain that takes the place of door to his
shoM waiting for customers, knowing
nothing Of the world without the wo-
men, bare-footed or in toe-slippers,
shuttle and gossip about; but no one
has newspaper or book; the somber
gondolier quarrels for an extra contesimi
from his passenger, but he never heard
of America or England, and has never
read q word even OF his own language.
All are proud OF Venice, even though
she is but the dowerlcss bride Of the
Adriatic; proud that she was once con-
quered byNapoleon; proud Of the church
and square OF st. Marks; proud Of the
palace Of the Doges, with its quaint
Moorish Gothic architecture; proud, for
aught l know, Of the Bridge Of Signs,
"a prison and a palace on each hand, !"
and of tho horrible machinery Of perse-
cution underneath, running down .
hundred steps into the gloomy earth.

The Arkansas Holford bond ring
hnve bought the Little Rock Gazette.
Price $4,000. The Gazette will
now handle Fishback without gloves.
1t supported the lolford bond ring
up to recent date but for the last
month or two it has wabbled on the
gudgeon. The Hoiford bonds arc
notoriously barefaced frauds and the
holders of them have neither a legal
nor an equitable claim upon the
State for their payment. A more
outrageous swindle was never per-
petrated by the arch swindler, Steve
Dorsey himself, than this Holford in
iquity. The Holford bondites arc
styled "anti-amendment Democrat"
and those in favor Of adopting i can-
stitutional amendment dcclniing the
bonds nuh and void are styled
amendment Democrats" The lat
ter comprise about -tcnths of
the Democratic voters in the State.
For month or two past the Gazette
has continued its professions of sup
port of the "anti-amendment" fac
tion with proviso that the question
of the amendment should be submit
ted to the vote of the people for rat
ification or rejection. This did not
suit the Holfordites. They claim
that the amendment has already been
rejected by the people at the time
the lIolford returning boards count
ed out the amendment in September,
1850. and they do not propose TO
take any more chances. The Arkan-
sGs Democrats can defeat these bond
seheners if they are true to them
selves aud support none but "amend-
ment' candidates for all Offices. And
they need not be troubled about the
influence of the Holiord organ at The
State capital. That sort of nowspa-
per exercises but slight influence

a splendid race at the last election
for this position, being defeated but
by small majority, and his friends
are urgent in his making the race
over again. Heck has many friends
all over the county, who will sup
port him. He has had considerable
experience in the duties of the

choice of the majority will make a

ces IN the halls of Congress are ia
miliar TO all who have watched his
course, and the proceedings of the

better set forth his merits than has
been done in the following language
in late issue of the Memphis APP
peal:
"Thc people Of Arkansas never
had in the Congress of the United
States an ADLER or more faithful rel =
rescntative than the Hon. Poindextcr
Dunn, of the First Congressional
District. He occupies a high posi-
ton in the House of Representatives,
and he never wearies in laboring for
lis constituents. Mr.. Dunn is as
conspicuous and as much respected
in the House as Mr.. Garland is in
the Senate, which is saying much for
his ability, popularity and usefulness.
lie is watchful and vigilant, never
speaks except in the discussion of
live issues, and what he has to say
he saws in the fewes, words and they
are always plain aud TO the point"
