chief leadership of the party in the
United States and President Gar
field refused to surrender to him.
That gentleman, with the Stalwart
wing of the Republican party at his
back made the war on Garfield red
hot. The newspapers were full of

toriety and to be talked of all over
the world. He thought the people
lwho hated Garfield so bitterly would
step forward at the critical moment
and save his neck from the halter,
and so his arm was nerved to fire
the fatal shot. He claims now that
he was "insane' on the I'd of July,
and perhaps he was. Guiteau was
not the only 'insane" man about

facetious anecdote.
An Eagle After a Flock Of Geese.

A gentleman from Stone County, who
has just reached the city, gave the par
ticulars of a remarkable incident which
he witnessed while crossing White River
on the ferry just above the mouth of
Sycamore creek. When nearly half
way across the stream an enormous
eagle swooped down on a flock of geese,
which were swimming in the river some
eighty rods below the boat. The fowls,
upon observing the eagle approaching,
instinctively Owed under the water just
as the bird struck the wave. Baffled in
the first assault the eagle flew slowly up
ward, and when the geese came to the
surface darted downward again and
burying its talons in one of them at
tempted to bear il away. The goose
struggled violently, while its companions
swan around it uttering shrill cries and
the persons on the ferry boat watched
the strange scene with keen interest.
Once the eagle lifted its prey clear out
of the water and seemed on the point of
conveying it to the mountain cliff that
rose grandly in the air on the other side
Of the stream, but the struggles OF the
goose forced the captor downward.
When water was again reached the
goose made supreme effort and plung-
ed below the surface, dragging the eagle
after it and causing the latter to loosen
its hold and rise upward with fierce
scream.
The eagle next attacked another goose,
but with the same result, being COMPEL
ed to relinquish its hold when its intend
ed victim plunged beneath the waves.
This strange contest lasted fully thirty
minutes, at the end of which the eagle
gave up the fight and, rising, scared
away to the mountains westward, while
the flock of geese swan further down
the stream. None of the flock were
killed, but the water in the vicinity was
dyed with blood, and the surface of the
stream was covered with feathers for
considerable distance. - Little Rock

Figs.

Figs have been used in the East as an
article of food from the time immemori-
al. The flowers of the fig, unlike those
of most fruit trees, makeno outward APP
pearance, but are concealed in the fruit.
Under favorable circumstances fig or
two is formed along the shoots at the
base of almost every leaf, and the guam
tity that sometimes attain maturity is
enormous. The drying is easily effect
ed in warm climates by exposure to the
suns rays, in the same way as grapes
are dried, which are called from that
circumstance raisins of the sun. Like
the grape, the substance of the tig
abounds in what is termed grape-sugar
In drying, some Of this exudes, and
forms that soft and white powder which
we see on the imported figs They arc
thus preserved in their own sugar, and
rendered fit for storing up as an article
of food.
In warm climates two crops or fruit
are produced from the fig tree, each
crop being produced on distinct sets Of
shoots The second crop grows from
the eyes or buds of the shoots made in
early summer, and II the season be sltf-
ficiently warm and long, the fruit viii
ripen, In such climate il is the second
crop that is most prolific and valuable,
and that is used in drying for exporta-
ton. In climates where tho winters are
severe the trees are so trained thar the
branches can be tied in bundles and laid
along theground, when they are covered
with litter and earth.

HARpER's MAGAZINE for February is a
very strong Number both in the literary
and the artistic sense. Beginning with an
excellent Portrait of Victor Hugo, which
serves as a frontispiece, we have next an ex-
ceedingly interesting description Of Phila-
delphia, by GEORGE p. LATHRoP, beauti-
fully illustrated. The authors clever dc.
lineation of the social features of the city,
and of such old institutions as the Saturday
Club and the Assembly, are very entertain
ing; and not less 80 are his personal
sketches of eminent Philadelphians; and
his account of the athletic sports and pas
times of this old Quaker town.
Mrs. Anna Bowman Blake's personal
sketches of "French Political Leaders" are
admirable; and Mr.. Reinhart's characer.
istic drawings add greatly to the readers
interest in the subject.
Prof. John Fiske contributes paper
entitled "The Romance OF Spanish and
French Explorers" W. l.. Alden clever
satire on juvenile sensational literature
and John II. B. Latrobe, personal Rocol-
lections of Daniel Webster
A novel and most striking feature of the
Number is the first installment OF Mrs. John
Lilies serial tale, prudence: a Story Of
Esthetic London which promises to be a
very strong and interesting exposition Of a
peculiar phase Of English life

To those in foggy atmosphere respect

will be required double the present num-
Der OF wagons, harness, plows, reapers,
drills and all tools pertaining to agricul-
ture and mechanics, beside sugar, tea,
coffee, cloth, and the numerous other arti-
Giles imperitively needed. The unimprov-
ed lands will have been improved and in.
creased in value, thereby lessening the
pro rata of taxation. The Illinois Central
railroad company offers for sale more than
100000 acres of land---nearly all Of which
is good--upon which there can DO no taxes
placed until they have been sold to actual

Poor Pay. The curates of the Church
of England are combining to improve
their condition. Like the farmers, they
want better security of tenure, demand
that certain length of service shall en-
title them to promotion, and ask for
better pay. A curate holds his appoint
ment more or less at the will of his in
cumbent, and his chances of promotion
hinge more upon favor than merit. AT
the best, more than one-third of those
who enter the ministry have no hope Of
promotion, for there are about $4,000
candidates for only $4,000 benefices.
The salaries of the Church range from
$4,000 a year paid to the Primates, to
a string Of beggarly pittances running
from 800 to $500 year, the great bulk
of the curates receiving only about the
latter sum.
