 From the Atlanta Constitution
 'Birds to windward,' cried the lookout
 :sHa I'd a-lee," from the captain.
 ''Hard a lee sue is.
 Why birds if we were fishing Because the sea birds hover above the schools of fish, feeding on the offal and the smaller fish just as certain as fate, beneath the swarm of gulls and curlews that hung like a speck of cloud above the water, pulsing up and down, there were running millions of the fish we were after. In few moments we had come within few hundred yards.
 'Get your lines out" shouted the captain, i've are nearly on 'em "
 Instantly four stout lines of fifty feet length were cast over the bow of the boat and spun out till they tense. There was no bait used-simply squids of ivory, with hooks at the lower end. The Lucia was flying now, sure enough The waves curled from her bow and the spray was tossed over us. Capt. Pickett was standing erect, the tiller between his legs, and his eyes fixed on the water ahead. 'Lighten the foresail a bit'' Lighter she is ''
 A few birds drifted behind the sails others followed, until the air full of them. I saw flash or in the water as the boat swept past Every man was tense with ex- pectation. Evan Howell was sitting astrad- dle of bench by me whom suddenly: "Honey in the gourd!" he shrieked and began pulling hand over hand like mad. I'm with you,' cried Jackson. ''Good Lord !' remarked Gordon, and he began to pull.

The Arrears of Rent BtlI.

The strict and literal truth is that the au- thors of the measure have never pretended that it is just, but, the contrary, have said by the mouth Of the Prime Minister himself that on principle it is not to be defended. It is allowed to be a bill that makes 8 fool of every poor Irish tenant who, daring the Land League, has honestly paid his rent and at the same time a measure which not only jus tifies but rewards the whole mass of Leaguers who, refusing to pay, have terrorized others by maiming and murder. This of course seems absolutely incredible account to give of any legislative measures but it is a strictly true account of the Arrears bill. Throughout the whole of Ireland the bill en- ahles the Moonlighter to say to the man he terrorized, 'You see l was your friend when I warned. you not to pay you didn't pay, and now" (tapping the stock of one of MT
 Walsh's rides) we've brought down the gov. ernment to tell you that you were quite right
 and that they will pay for you what they don't make the landlord give up" Or turn ing to the honest man who would not listen to the League, the Moonlighter may say l 'Now you see how stupid you were; you

BRowN's IRON B11TERc is one of the very few tonic medicines that are not com posed mostly of alcohol or whiskey, thus becoming q fruitful source of intemper- ance by promoting a desire for rum.
 BRowN's IRON B1TTERs is guaranteed to be a non- intoxicating stimulant, and it will, in nearly every case, take the place of all liquor, and at the same time abso- lutei}- kill the desire for whiskcy and other intoxi- eating beverages.

 An account is given in English journals of the performance of & locomotive on the Great Northern railroad, which recently car- ried the Duke of Edinbu gh from Leeds to London, 1863 miles, in three hours, or at the rate of sixty-two miles per hour. This speed has frequently been equalled, and sometimes passed for short distances, but is remarkable as the average rate for such long journey. The engine had driving wheels eight feet in diameter, or two feet larger than the wheels of American engines. To accomplish the trip in the time given, the wheel must have made 219 revolutions per minute, or more than 30, 900 in three hours
 The Democratic State committee of South Carolina has issued an address to the people of that State. It declares that the party Is committed to tariff and civil service reform and that it ''demands'' liberal appropriations from the general government for the pur-
 pose of educating the freedmen. The part
 of the address which will have the widest in-
 terest is the following "By we'll considered
 laws repeating and ballot box staffing are
 alike guarded against. The Democracy, therefore, go into the canvass with the 1 assurance that the strength of the opposition
 will not be increased by trickery or fraud,
 and with the satisfaction of knowing that, in | South Carolina, there shall be, beyond dis pute, free and fair election"
 Some time since Consul Baker, of Buenos | Ayres, expressed the opinion that ostrich | farming could be made very profitable in the | southern and Pacific Coast States. Since then MT. Baker has received a number of let l ters asking fer further information. Instead
 of answering them separately he has put them together in second communication on 1 the subject. He says he does not think it would be possible to send ostrich eggs so as
 to arrive in this country in good condition. | The only safe way, he says is to procure the
 birds, which are best shipped when about
 four years old. T product of each bird is l annually about $C 'nh the feathers oi

LOUISVILLE TOBACCO MARKET.

LOUISVILLE, May 29.-Sales of leaf tobacco
in the expired portion of the crop year were
az follows, with comparisons for 1SS1-82:
p, 227 hogsheads; 1SS0-8l, %, 293 hogsheads
and 1879-S0, IL ,555 hogsheads. The receipts
amounted to 1450 hogsheads against 23l0
last week, and 1130 in the corresponding
week of last year. The temperature, until
recently, has been rather.low, but there has
been considerable rain and dampness, afford
lug an excellent planting season. Farmers
have been busy transplantiDg, and the
weather conditions have been very favorable
to plants. An excellent start has been
made, and without offering any def
mite estimate. it is supposed that about
twenty-five to thirty per cent. of the crop has
been set. In some counties, notably in Clarks-
vile and the lower Green river districts,
probably thirty-hve per cent. has been set.
There appears to be no reason, with the
present weather prospects, why half should
not be set in another week. Dark and heavy
tobaccos have presented scant assortment
of styles, other than nondescript. There
have been small offerings of straight German
or English types of good domestic styles;
common and lower regie kinds have prepon-
derated. The market has been without
briskness, generally speaking, and occasion
ally irregular and easy for npndescripts.
Lugs have been quiet, with lower grades
a fraction cheaper. Burley tobaccos have
been irregular and lower for nondescript and
low grade, quiet and steady for medium,
and firm for good and fine. At the close
there was decline of 10000 in dark and
heavy Tugs and nondescript or common
shipping leaf, and 25@50c pr 100 pounds in
nondescript and hurley styles. For good and
fine burleys very high prices have been paid.
One of the more noticeable sales of the week
was line of Davies county burleys, one of
which was a cutting package, fine in texture
as well as golden color, at S25 so. This is
the best saIe OF hurley produced west of

The New York Commercial Bullctin, of Sat
urday, thus summarizes the influences going
on during the week: "The check to the down.
ward turn on values and subsequent recoy-
cry, while 1t has led to a great deal of hasty
covering on the part of a certain class of
shorts, does not appear to have disturbed
the equanimity of those who may be termed
the positive bears They assume that, with
immediate pressure relieved by the quantity
OF long cotton thrown over, most recent
buyers anxious for a rise and bulling the
position as opportunity might present itself,
coupled with some favorable outside infiu-
ences, it is only natural that a reaction
should take place. 1t is, however, claimed
that the Improvement can only be held tenn
porarily, and that a still greater process of
liquidation must take place before stimulate
ing and supporting investment is attracted.
The bulls however, seem to think the worst
is over, and claim that the dead wood has
not only been worked off the market, but
that the position is ripe for the infusion of
fresh life and vigor into deals for rise
Leaving out the probable extent of the crop
for the present, its backward condition is
given prominence "a prime factor to inhu-
ence the situation, and it is suggested that
when the lateness of the season commences
to be well understood and appreciated on the
other side,' the foreign markets NAV sud-
denly throw off the lethargy over American
cetton and work into such shape as to act as
4 very decided stimulant here"
