SMALL FARMS PAY BEST.

The governor of Florida reports that
the tendency of the agriculturalists OF
that state is toward small farms. This
Is good news, says the N. Y. Herald,
and 1t is to be regretted that other states
are not as wide awake as Florida. In
California the farmers who earn most
money per acre are those who have
twenty or thirty acres in grapes and
other fruit. The richest New York
farmers are those who have grown Der.
ries and added every year an acre or two
to their pear orchards, and the most
profitable farms of all those within few
miles of this city, whose managers bank
considerable money yearly from the sale
of vegetables grown on few acres that
are hired at rentals sometimes reaching
S3OO per acre per onnum. One man who
bought an up-nver farm of twenty-three
acres twenty years ago, has for years
averaged 81, 200 yearly on the yield of
pear trees that he had planted himself.
But the American farmer generally
seems TO imagine that humanity needs
only wheat, corn and pork, SO lie at
tempts to raise these on large scale,
while the vegetables and fruits on his
own table are purchased at high prices
IN. city markess. The farmer should
learn to eat something besides meat and
bread. He should also learn that the
people who do not own farms are will
ing and anxious to buy whatever vegeta-
BILE products may be fit to eat.

Singular Recovery Of a Watch.

FROM a CuariOttesVlue Ietttr.l
The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway
has two bridges east of this place, Just
at the foot of Monticello Mountain-one
is over the Rivanna, the other over
Moore's Creek. The company has a
watchman employed to follow all trains
over these bridges and keep a general
surveillance over them. This watch
man, when not thus engaged, sometimes
catches fish from the river and some
times goes to hunt squirrels on the
north side of Monticello. During one
OF these latter trips in the spring Of last
year be had the misfortune to lose his
watch. This was very inconvenient for
him, for it was a good one, and a good
watch costs money, and is hard for a
poor man to get; besides, he was de-
prived of all means of knowing Just at
what time to be called ON duty, except
when he was at his house or contiguous
there. One day in the fall thereafter, as
he was going down the road toward the
second bridge, from which a good view
of the mountain can be had, and think
ing about his lost watch, he cast his eyes
over on the mountain side and saw some
thing glistening III the rays of the au-
tumn sun. 1t struck him that this
might be his watch. He went back to
his house, returned with his wife, and
finding again the glistening object, di-
rected her to watch it and guide his foot
steps by her voice-the leaves were off
the trees and a man could easily be seen
way up the mountain-side-an started
for the object. His wife, faithful to her
part of the work, directed to the exact
spot, where he found his watch, intact
and practically uniniured. The watch
had been lost for months. Now, how is
this piece of good fortune to be ac-
counted for?

An Egyptian Queens Canopy.
(From the London Nature,J

The ancient pail, found in the recent
discovery of royal mummies in Egypt, was
composed of numerous pieces Of leather
tanned by the bark of the sont or acacia,
and sewn together by red cord, and is
supposed to have covered the mortuary
cabin of the sacred boat or horse, to
which it formed kind of baldacchiuo.
1t is exceedingly brittle, and the colors
are still well preserved, the center nine
feet long by six feet wide, and divided
INTO two equal sections, one of which is
covered by pink aud yellow rosettes on a
blue ground, the other displaying six fly
ing vultures flying with extended wings
and holding feather sceptres in their
claws; they are separated from one an
other by horizontal lines of hieroglyphics
the name and title of Masaharuta, high
priest of Amen Ra, the deity of Thebes,
and a row of pink rosetes on yellow
ground. On either side is a flap divided
from the central section by four bands
of colors-blue, red, yellow and green
and further divided by border Of spear
head pattern. Below this comes a row
of panels containiDga row of emblematic-
al devices, predominant amongst which
is the scarabeus, flying with extended
wings, thrusting forward the solar disk
emblems of the sun-god-but having
with this emblem the representation of
gazelle, supposed to be the favorite of
the queen, twice repeated singular re-
presentation of two united ducks and or
naments like the Greek antefixal and the
cartouche of Royal name of Pinotem III.
seven times repeated. Below this is a
border of pink aud blue cheguers at the
bottom, with a border kilt Of pink or
perhaps originally scarlet. This magni-
ficient work of leather measures 90 feet
6 inches in length and 19 feet six inches
wide, and containing POI square feet of
leather. 1t is the most remarkable OBJ
ject next to the historical mummies of
the whole collection, and exhibits the
greatest technical skill in preparation
and artistic excellence in execution and
design. Its age is somewhat about the
time of Solomon. Specimens of this
leather canopy, which have been brought
to England, show that the colors with
which it was painted or dyed still retain
their original luster. From some un-
known circumstances they have, like
the flowers, never paled by the effects
of time.

A Boston Romance.

Sixteen years ago baby eleven
months old was found in street in
Boston, dressed in costly clothes and
wearing locket on which the name
"Charles Willoughby" was engraved.
The child was adopted by restaurant
keeper of Hartford, Conn, and chris
tened Charles Rogers. He grew up in
ignorance of his origin, and the clues
furnished by the articles worn by him
when he was found led to no further dis
coveries. Recently he became waiter
il the Lawton House, at Stone Bridge,
Rhode Island, and worked there several
months. Then he suddenly received a
message from a dying man at Provi-
dence, who proved to be his grand
father, and was informed that he had
fallen heir to a large fortune. An unex-
plaiped mystery hangs about the history
of the boy. 1t is said that his relatives
have all along known of his whereabouts
and doings, but for reasons not stated
did not make themselves known to him
until the occurrence that has suddenly
placed him in possession of ample
wealth.

ENGLISH MILLS AND EGYPTIAN COT.
TON

According to Bradstreet's, England
has no less than twenty-five thousand
weavers, whose aggregate weekly earn
ings amount to Sl25, 900, engaged in
making cloth from Egyptian cotton. To
what extent Eugland's war upon Egypt
will affect next years cotton supply is
now a matter Of anxious thought with
her manufacturers. Last year the cot
ton product of Egypt amounted to one
and half million bales, but should the
country continue to be disturbed by war
no such a crop can be made this year.
British shot and shell will afford no in
ducsment to the fellahs to stick TO their
cotton fields, nor is it to be supposed
that Arabi Pasha will consent to their
remaining If their services are needed in
the camp and field. While war invaria-
bly, tends ~ 'the Generalization of agri-
culture, and will do 80 in this case, some
cotton will be made in Egypt, perhaps
half crop, but much will depend upon
the extent and severity If the conflict
now being waged. Should our own cot
ton crop fall below five million bales,
and the Egyptian.crop prove failure, the
tendency will be to create demand
which will greatly strengthen the cost to
consumers. Under such circumstances
prices will advance, and the benefit will
inure to our own planters.
An exchange says that the total visi..
BILE supply of cotton for the whole world
is about a million and three-auarters
bales against two millions last year at
this time, and deduces the belief that
this will create an increased demand and
an enhanced value. England will be
obliged to pay the cost of her war upon
Egypt in other ways than in the en-
hanced price Of cotton. Egyptian cotton
seed gives employment to nearly three
thousand of her home workers in ex-
tractiug the oil, and the sl-cake thus
obtained forms Ohe-half of her entire
supply. Bradstreet's says that the
other seeds which make inferior oil cake
will be enhanced in price by the scarcity,
while her soap boilers will have to find
some substitute for the fifty thousand
tons OF Egyptian cotton seed, or stop
work. To other prospective losses must
be added that of the English freight
ship owners, who almost monopolize the
Egyptian trade. In what way England
can find recompense does not appear.
IL after conquering the country she
could retain it, her losses, such as they
may prove to be, might be made good.
But Notwithstanding that appearances
all tend to the belief that Egypt will
pass into the control of Great Britain,
her government repudiates the idea of
conquest and other powers seem readyto to
step in 10 thwart such aplan were it con-
templsted.

Dio Lewis accounts for the badness
Of men in q simple way-their habit Of

years. The common black stiff hat, as
impervious as sheetiron, retains the heat

glands, which bear the same relation to
the hair that the seed wheat does TO the
plant above ground, become weak from
moisture and heat, and finally become
too weak TO sustain the hair. II falls
out and badness exists. A man with @
good head OF hair needs very little pro-
lection where the hair grows. "And

An Honest People.

In these days Of dishonest insurance
presidents and defaulting cashiers, it is
pleasant to read, as you can in an Eng
lish book recently published on Balu-
of a people that can be trusted.
81 wanted, said the author, to send q
large sum Of money back to Jask, and as
was ON the point Of sending Brahim
with it, he happened to look out of the
tent. There's a man, he said, 'just 60
ing; he'll take it, and he ran out and
called to man Just disappearing among
the bushes. This was perfect stranger
to all of us, but he duly delivered the
money; and when in secret I limited
doubts about it's safety, the tone OF his
reply, He's a Baluch, made me feel
quite ashamed. One tribe of Baluchis
will 'chapao or plunder another tribe
they get chance, but petty
theft is unknown among them"

GREAT BRITAIN's ARMY.

According to the British army esti-
mates for the year ending March 1s.
1882, the regular army of the United
Kingdom, inclusive of the forces in In
,dia, embraced 133, ,210 men of all ranks.
In this number were 1921 commissioned
Officers and 17,772 n-commissioned
Officers, drummers and trumpeters. The
India forces numbered 62, ,54S men of all
ranks. The distribution of the land
forces were as follows: Thirty-eight per
cent. in England and Wales; two per
cent. in Scotland; sixteen per cent. in
Ireland aud forty-fve per cent. abroad.
The estimate provided, in addition, for
1871 militia, l4,5ll yeoman cavalry
and 245,64S volunteers. A fourth class
OF the reserves, known as the "pension-
ers and army reserve FORCE" numbered
$1,000. The total force provided for in
the estimate, exclusive of the India con-
tingent, was 579, ,4Sl. The estimates for
the current year provide for force of

Reversing the Order.

The Hon. W. j. Hendricks. of Frank
fort, KY, once undertook to give lesson
in politeness, and this, according to his
story, was the result: He was sitting in
his Office one day, when his colored office
boy entered with his hat on and singing,
4" Oars one mo- ribber to cross" Mr..
Hendricks was impressed with the boys
want of politeness, and said to him:
Look here, sir, that's no way to enter
my Office. You need lesson in behavior.
Now, you take a seat in my chair, and
act just as though you were proprietor
just as I do. and 1 will go out and
come in just as you should" whereupon
he laid down his cigar and went out Of
the door. In a moment he returned,
and there sat the boy with his feet
perched upon the table, a copy Of the re-
vised statutes of the United States open
in his lap and the half-smoked cigar in
his mouth, and his hat cooked down
over one eye. The teacher of manners
entered quietly with his hat in his hand,
but had not fairly gotten into the room
before the darky looked up and said:
"Jack, you d-d rascal, pick up that
spittoon, clean it quick, and then come
in heah, sab, and black my boots-do
You heah 2" Jack was kicked out, but
was soon reinstated.

court, bail being fixed at $4,000 each in the
cases Of John Montgomery and Lee Pettis, and
50, 900 in the case Of Emsnuet Clement. On
the night Of lhe 11th a mob assembled at the
doors Of the Jail and demanded that the pris-
oners be delivered up to them. In order to
save the property from being demolished the
jailer delivered up the keys and the accused
were soon in the hands Of an excited multitude
Ropes were placed around the necks OF the ter
ritied prisoners, who firmly protested that they
were innocent OF the fiendish crime with which
they were charged. After being hauled up
several times and nearly strangled by the mob
in the hope OF extorting a confession from
them, the men still persisted in their innocence
Sober second thought then assumed control
over the lawless spirits Of the assembled far
mers, and they conveyed the men back to the
cells. The prisoners suffer no serious injuries
from the terrible nights experience.

MOUNTAIN AND SEASIDE OLINArE

In the July number of the Nineteenth
Century, Professor Frankland presents
some important results of his investiga.
tions on climate in town and country.
which are of great value, especially in
the hot season. One of the most strik-
ing facts brought to light by his in
quiries is the difference of sensation
caused by sun warmth ON the one hand
and air warmth on the other, which he
compares 10 that of an open fireplace
and close stove. This difference is
most noticeable in comparing ones SEN
sations on cloudless summer day at or
near sea level and on mountain height.
Thus, at Bellaglo, he says, with sun
warmth of only 720, the heat was most
oppressive, while on the summit of
the Diavolezza Pass there was delicious
sensation of coolness, although the sun
warmth was no less than 107'; at the
former the air warmth was So, while on
the pass il was only 48'. II is common,
in contrasting the merits Of different
