Railroad Matters.

We understand that, beginning with the
first of September, change is to be made
in the general passenger and freight bust
ness of the Z. T., Va. Ga. Railroad
Heretofore the Office of general freight and
passenger agent has been held by Mr.. Jas.
r. Ogden, and the business has been all
under his supervision. The business of
the combination has grown to such an enor-
nous extent, however, that it is more than
one man can well supervise Consequently
Mr.. A. Pope, formerly of the Richmond
and Danville Road, has been
appointed general passenger agent,
and will take charge of all the
passenger business. His headquarters will
be at Lynchburg, Va. Mr.. Ogden retains
the position of general freight agent, his
headquarters remaining in Knoxville.
Mr.. j. W. Ward clerk for some years
past in Mr. Ogden's Office at this place, has
been compelled to resign mis- position On &C
count of his health

Knoxville and Augusta Railroad, has recent
ly been turned out of the shop thoroughly
overhauled, re6tted, reprinted and looking

Will Strive for an Honest Living.

A New Haven correspondent of the New York Herald says: Blanche Doug las has left town. She remained at the jail until noon, on Saturday, and re- fused to see parties who had interested themselves to find respectable home for her. That afternoon she drove to West Haven, obtained some articles be- longing to her, and, it is ascel tained, left for New York, on the evening train. The report is that she will find tenn porary home with friends living on a small place sop me. distance outside of New York. Has she relatives? Yes; two. Her step pfather picks up pre- carious living selling peanuts in the streets of New Y prk. Her husband, Zim- merman, she has not heard from since before the trial. Then he came to New Haven, borrowed some money from her, and was next seen peddling her photo graphs on @ New Haven corner. The borrowed money has not been returned. One of Blanche's counsel said to the Herald representative: eff ever there was woman absolutely homeless and friendless in the world, it is Blanche Douglas. It would be Christian charity for some good people to take her in charge. She is kind-hearted girl and Is fitted for better life than the streets of New York. Return to her old waysl Never, sir, unless after the hardest struggle for an honest living"

A Recipe for Making Pickles.

Take gherkins or small cucumbers and put them into an oaken tub or large stone jar and pour over them brine made of rock salt and strong enough to bear up a potato. Put plate on top of the cucumbers to keep them covered with brine, and at the end of day stir them up from the bottom with your hand. At the end of several days pour off the brine, scala 1t, and after wash ing the cuoumbers pour the brine over them again. In three days more repeat this process, and at the end of the ninth day throw away the brine and wash the cucumbers in cold water, the colder the better. Place the pickles in a kettle and pour cold vinegar over them, cover with green cabbage leaves and add a lumpof alum the size of walnut, and lei, the vinegar just come to boil, when remove, and at the end of a couple of days drain the pickles and then pour over them cold cider vinegar. If you wish to spice, use a cup of sugar, three dozen whole black peppers, three dozen cloves, one dozen blades of mace and the same amount of allspice to each gallon of vinegar. Grocer.

COurtship in Germany.

As most gentlemen in Germany de- rive their income from the Government, which gives them enough for comfort but not for extravaganza, their wives are obliged to be very careful in their expenditure, and their daughters are brought up in strict economy. Therefore, after German young lady has left school her real work begins. If she happens to have great talent for music, everything else is given up, and she devotes all her time and energy to the cultivation of that talent, until she appears as one of the great players of Germany.
 If it seems likely she will remain in mediocrity, she is not encouraged in throwing away her time in musical practice, but she then qualities herself for being help to her mother by learn- ing cookery, dressmaking, ironing, and preserving vegetables for the winter.
 As rule, German gentlemen do not care for beauty in wife if not accom- panied by more enduring qualities, and they are very cautious in choosing a partner for life.
 Before ingratiating himself with the young lady, the gentleman first asks her fathers consent to visit at his house that he may observe the young lady in her domestic relations toward her parents, sisters. brother and servants.
 If her conduct toward them is irre- proachable and he thinks she will make good wife, he engages himself to her by exchanging rings, for in Germany men all have wedding rings.
 The young lady then begins to make her trousseau, which is no trife, for not only has she to provide her own wardrobe, but all the furniture, house. hold linen, ornaments, crockery, pots and kettles-in short, everything neces- sary for the new establishment.
 In fact, unless the outfit of bride is large enough to fill one of Pickford's vans, it is described by the gossips as a very shabby affair.

Bill Arp on COurtship.

A nice, pretty, sweet girl can tell 8 man long way off sometimes, and make him sacrifice power of time and com fort and money and horsefesh, and when she does it all for purpose and then throws him off, I shall always think she hadn't orter. I never was in favor of a young girl turning up her nose at clever feller who was raised in her neighborhood and running off after an airy chap from away yonder; but when he does come I think she ought to let him go back quick and cheap, or take him. I've always noticed that when a man goes slipping away to parts un- known for wife, it's because those girls know him too we'll and don't want him. I didn't go half a mile for my pard, and that showed my good sense, and she didn't go no further than I did, and that showed hern, and if I was 8 sensible young girl, and was awaiting for hus- band, I would set my cap for somebody l had known long time, but if I was young fool, wouldn't. The happiest marriages I know of are those where the folks knowed all about one another for a good while, and nary one was fooled. Romance in love affairs is mighty pretty, and solitary horseman thrown from a horse is just splendid, but all this plays out in few months, and then comes the facts-the hard pan. The earth that is. earthly and the heavenly vanishes, and the baby has to be nursed of nights, and the sugar gets low, and the diamond wedding ring won't bring color to the poor wife's cheek, and she is far away from her mother, and wants sympathy and love and kind attention, and good deal of it. As MT. Longfellow said:
 Life is real, life is earnest,
 And the baby wants a nurse."

Caution Against the Army Worm.

The first appearance of the army worm has been reported from several points during the last fortnight. But so far the localities visited by this pest have apparently been fewer and more circumscribed than usual. Entomolo- gists are of the opinion that great army worm years have been those of exces. sive rainfall after years of exceptionally light rains. During 8 very dry summer the swampy places dry out and the in- sects have 8 wider range, consequently depositing their eggs over larger area of territory. If, therefore, the suc- ceeding season proves wet and favor able to their growth they appear in large numbers, even on high and we'll drained lands. As Professor Riley and Dr. Packard show, ''the worms arc most destructive in a wet summer suc- ceeding dry one.''
 The closing month of last summer was extremely dry. No more widespread and intense droughts than that of August, 1881, had been reported for many years, and in some districts the aridity began in the middle of July, while in others it continued through September. If we should now have 8 wet July, according to the law which seems to govern the development of these insect Is we might expect an inva- sion from them in the Middle Atlantic States and the Ohio Valley, in which sections thu greatest deticienc!es:.of rain fall were reported by the Signal Service last summe mer. Since the 1st of March the precipi tations in these sections has been sufficiently large, although the temperature re has perhaps been too low till recently, to favor the growth of the pests. It is probable that the rainfall of the neRt month will be decidedly smaller tha n that of the present, and as yet no serious indications of a wide spread invasion have been reported. But it will be we'll for farmers, especial ly this side of the Alleghanies, to be on the lookout and ready to fight the in. sect bands, should they appear, before they can assail their crops.-NeaO York Herald.

FARM EXPERIENCE.

MELONS AND SQUAsHEs. -" Last year. as test, pinched the ends of the long main shoots of the melons, squashes and cucumbers, and left some to run at their own sweet will. One squash plant sent out single steam reaching more than forty feet, but did not bear any fruit. Another plant was pinched until it formed compact mass of interming ling side shoots eight feet square and it bore sixteen squashes. The difference Ill favor of the yield of an acre of melons treated by this process may easily amount to 100 barrels. "-Practical | Farmer.

A Russian Story.

Shortly after the opening of the Mos COW Exhibition, which was recently in augurated by the Grand Duke Vladimir ayoung man demanded an audience of the Chief of the Rolice at St. Peters burg. He refused to state his errand to any of the subordinate officials, so, after being carefully searched, he was ad- mitted to the presence of the General. Here he stated at once that he was sent by the Revolutionary party, and ex- plained his mission in the following terms: '"The Emperor is prevented from going to Moscow by his fear of our schemes. His dread will cease to be justified whenever he grants Con- stitution. Then he need fear no con- spiracy, and can go in safety wherever he pleases. It has fallen to my lot to inform you that if the Emperor persists in his reactionary policy nothing can save him. Neither my friends nor my self wish to murder him treacherously. Alexander III. is warned as was Alex ander IT. We do not assassinate, but we render justice." At this point of the interview the police officer seemed anxious to call in assistants, but the young Nihllist stopped him, and added: "I do not wish to be subjected to the indignity of torture. In coming here have sacrificed my life. I could have killed you, but we do not commit mur- ders uselessly." With these words the youth stepped back few paces and knocked two large buttons with which his cuffs were fastened against his fore head. The buttons, being full of all explosive substance, burst, and inflicted such wounds on the young man that he expired in few moments, leaving no trace as to his identity.

 Captain Howgate, the defaultine signal officer, announces, through u friend, that he is all right, that he has all the money he wants, and that he can't be found till he gets ready to come into court to be tried. He says he will be ready when wanted for trial.
 Custom House statistics show an increase in the value of dry goods i'm. ported during June over the same month last year. Last month there was an increase of about twenty-f five pei cent. Tn imports and exports over the amount reported for May.
 The Speaker laid before the House message from the President return. ing, without his approval, the Deustel bill to regulate the carriage of passen- gers by sea.

 France is urging Germany to use her influence with the Sultan for the deposition of Arabi from the Ministry of War in Egypt.
 The Bombay papers announce that orders have been given to prepare a force of ], 800 English and 5000 native troops for Egypt.
 The London NeaOs estimates the cost of the expected war at four and a half million pounds.
 A rebellion has broken out in Oman, Arabia, against the Imaum, A British man-of-war has proceeded to Muscat.
 Another scene has occurred in the English Parliament. A resolution was read from the Irish members declaring that 1n consequence of their expulsion and the passage of the Repression bill through committee in their absence they would not further participate in the debate. Nearly all the Irish mem bers then left the House in body.
 On the Fourth all the ships in the harbor of Alexandria, dressed and fired salutes in honor of American Independ- ence. The sight was brilliant in the ex- treme. Probably the American flag has never before been saluted by so many nations and by such glorious fleet as is that at Alexandria. The Arabs could not understand the saluting, be- lieving that bombardment had really begun.
 A Paris. correspondent says that Arabi Bey has commenced operations against the Suez Canal, barges laden with stones being sent down it to be sunk when necessary.

The Moorish Slave Girls of To-Day,

A correspondent of the London Stan.
 dGrd writing from Morocco says:-By the Mohammedan law no man is per.
 mitted to have more than four wives:
 but there IS no limit but that of the | the purse to the number of female slaves who may be added to his establish ment. The Sultan's ladies are mum.
 bered by hundreds, if they do not in-
 deed reach the four figures; and in pro- ! portion to his position and wealth the well-to- do Moor in like manner has a large or small harem establishment. The Sultan has the privilege of confer ing the honor of entering his harem upon whom he will, and any girls in the provinces who are more than ordinarily pretty are sent up to the court for his inspection or sent to him as a compli- mentary present. Men in high positions as the Vizier, are also often presented
 with ladies, and, being frequently very wealthy, complete their establishment by private contract, paying, perhaps, $200 for girl tlley may admire.
 The ordinary well-to-do Moor, of
 whom there are large number of the
 merchant class, have to content them selves by buying in the open market,
 and, consequently, the slave market is highly patronized institution. The
 court in which this is usually held, on
 three days in every week, opens out of labyrinth of ismall, narrow streets. which forms the bazar or general mar ket of the city, place in which the higher class of Moor would not on other occasions deign to be seen. As the af- ternoon wears on, however, they may
 be seen ambling down on their gaily caparisoned mules, with slave walking
 behind them, to the entrance of the court, where they dismount and recline ln picturesque groups around the en- closure. About the same time arrive
 by twos and threes those who are to be sold, being placed by the salesmen in some small recesses or stalls opening on the court.
 There were about fifty or sixty per. sons for sale of both sexes and all ages. most of them black as jet, and from their features evidently natives of Sou dan, some of whom were to be sold only in lots, with two or three children. These were the drudges for house and field work, the price of whom always moderate, snd strictly commensurate to the amount of work they are likely to be able to perform.
 But beside these were two female figures who evidently excited no small amount of interest in the gray-bearded old Moors who formed no small propor tion of the purchasers. One of them was closely yelled Moorish girl, whose features were revealed only to inquiring customers, but who from 8 passing glance did not appear to be renarkahlo for her beauty the other was really pretty girl from the province of Sus, whose rose-colored caftan and green silk head-dress entrusted pleasantly with her olive complexion and long, black lashes. They were all neatly and tldily dressed, bearing no sign of ill., treatment or scant nourishment, and were treated with all consideration both by salesmen and purchasers, though the examination made by the latter of teeth, arms, etc., of those they bid for was very repulsive to those unaccus- toned to such sights.
