A LETTER to the Elmira IN. W
Farmer Club speaks in the highest
terms of the white Russian oats. The
writer says that in his county the yield
last year was from forty to eighty bush
els to the acre notwithstanding the most
severe droutb the oldest inhabitant
ever saw, SO they say. The good quail
ties of the white Russian are, he SAYS,
that they are not liable to lodge for the
straw is supplied with twice as many
Joints as the common oat. Each straw
has five or six joints above the roots or
stools. Next, they never have rusted in
that section when in 1880 other kinds
rusted so on high land theygdid not
weigh more than twenty pounds to the
measured bushel and these weighed thir-
ty-six and thirty-eight pounds to the
bushel, and that year he had fifty bush
els to the acre, weighing thirty-nine
pounds.
IT has been remarked by an old grain
grower that while he has observeda ben

In regard to corn. Corn will always do
best when it has become familiar" or
adapted to the soil by successive cult
vations. There isno doubt that the plan
of selection or "breeding seed corn is
the proper way to keep up it's bearing
proclivities and extend them. By Sc

factory than that which attends securing
seed from distance, however large it's
yield may be in the place of it's develop

favored localities, are always the result
of selection and extra care of the crop,
and the same care and attention paid to
local varieties that have become adapted
to the soil and suited to the season,
would in the end excel any corn from
distant state, for the imported corn
would retrograde, at least for a time,
while the other would steadily increase
in yield

most obliged to play.
He tried first to effect a reconciliation,
but, finding that impossible, made the
strange proposition that he should act
as second for both. Gentlemen" he
said, with q winning courtesy, ''you are
both equally my friends, and [ am hon
estly disposed to do equal justice to
each. Fix on some place and hour, and
[ will bring my friend DR.. Allen and see
everything as pleasantly and honorably
settled as possible. +"
Both Duval and Fontaine bowed to
this proposal. Perhaps neither of them
was in his heart as bloodthirsty as he
pretended, and peaceably inclined Sec
ond had a good deal in his power. So a
little wood about two miles out of town
was fixed upon, and sunset the following
day was the fated hour. John had in
sisted on this delay partly, he said, be-
cause he still hoped the principals might
change their minds, and partly because
it would allay any suspicion which their
quarrel and late visit to himself might
arouse.
So both Duval and Fountain were at
their usual desk in the morning, and
their evening horseback ride was SO
common and natural that no one at
tached any unusual meaning to it. Both
men arrived at the designated spot by
different roads, but within two minutes
of each other. Duval bowed, leaned
against tree, and smoked what might
be his last cigar. Fountain passed nerv-
ously up and down, waiting with great
Impotence Johns arrival with the ap-
pointed weapons, which both men had
intrusted to him. The sun set. The
little wood got darker and darker-so
dark at last that Duval's cigar made a
distinct glow. Still, John did not come.
Neither liked to make the first remark,
yet it was evident that for some cause Or
other their wounded honor would have
to endure another twelve hours wrong
Yet Duval was just Lighting another
cigar, when a little negro boy came
running through the wood.
"Done found you at last, Mas'r JEFF.

."Thank you, Duval, 1 will.
So by the light of succession of luci-
fers both gentlemen read the following
words
"My friend, I am opposed to duels on
principle; so is my dear bride, who hopes
you will both remember her too kindly
to stain her name with your blood.
Your little foolish quarrel hurried our
arrangements, which had been made for
month later. You will see now the
wisdom of the advice I have always given
you both. JOHN WINTHROP.
There was moments dead silence,
then Duval said, "Fontaine, we have no
quarrel now; and if we have, we have no
weapons. Suppose we go back to the
hotel ane have supper?"

How shall sing you, Child, for whom
So many Tyres are strung;
Or how the only tone assume
That fits a Maid so young?
What rocks there are on either hand
Suppose-'tis on the caIds-
You should grow up with quite grand
Platonic hate for bards
dow shall then be shamed, undone,
For ali ! with what scorn
Your eyes must greet tn at luckless One
Who hymned you, newly BORN
Who DER your helpless cradle " bent
His idle verse to turn,
And twangled his tiresome compliment
Above your uncon cernl
Nay-let my words be so discreet,
That keeping Chance in view,
Whatever after-fate you meet,
part may still be true.
Let others wish you more good looks,-
Your sex is always fair;
Or to be writ in Fortunes books
She's rich who has to spare:
wish you but heart that's kind,
A head that's sound and clear;
get let the heart be not too blind,
The head not too severe y
A Joy of life, frank delight,
A moderate desire;
And if you fail to find Knight,
At least-a trusty Squire. Critic

THE HOME DOCTOR.
FOR CHAFE.

A simple remedy for chafe is to battle
the parts well in tepid water, dry well
with soft cloths and apply, by means of
soft sponge or cloth. the following:
Zinci acetatis, or. XIV. morphine acetatis,
gr. j.; glycerin, az. ros@, aa OF. il M.
Fl sol. Sig: Apply to the chafed parts

SMOKERS CATARRH.
The British Medical Journal asserts
that the local effect of tobacco on the
mucous membrane of the nose, throat
and ears is as predisposing to catarrhal
diseases as is inefficient and insufficient
clothing in the case of women-the fact
being that such effect on the mucous
membrane of the superior portion of the
respiratory tract causes a more per-
manent relaxation and congestion than
any other known agent. Therefore, as
tobacco depresses the system while it is
producing it's pleasurable sensation, and
as it prepares the mucous membrane to
take on catarrhal inflammation from
even slight exposure to cold, the Journal
thinks it should require no further evil
dence to show that it's use ought to be
discontinued by every catarrhal patient.
NEW TREATMENT OF TETANUs.
The foreign medical journals publish
In full the views of DIR. Kia on tetanus.
and his new treatment of the same. The
disease, he believes, consists essentially
OF an exaggerated reflex irritability of
the spinal cord, which may be indiffer-
emily caused by tramatisms, toxic in
f1uences, or so-called decentralization.
Since the motor tracts of the cord re-
spond in a morbidly exaggerated man
ner to all sensitive impressions, the main
object OF treatment, he thinks, must be
to lessen sensory excitation--the cord.
by this means, gaining rest, and thus re-
turn to its normal condition made posi-
bic. DR.. R.ia, therefore, emphasizes
strict isolation of the patients; they are,
he says, to be separated from their friends
and kept from all possibility of sensory
impressions-even the physician to ex-
erclse great care in his intercourse with
the patient, lest the latter be disturbed.
REMEDY FOR BURNS.
According to the Practitioner, a sim
pie and effective remedy for removing
the pain caused by wounds and scalds is
saturated solution of bicarbonate of
soda In either plain or camphorated wa
ter. To apply the remedy all that is
necessary is to cut a piece of lint or old
soft rag, or even thick blotting paper, of
size sufficient to cover the scalded
or burned parts, and to keep it constant
ly well-wetted Wit the sodaic lotion. SO
as to prevent drying. By this means it
usually happens that all pain ceases in
from quarter to half an hour, or even
in much less time. When the main part
of limb. such as the hand and forearm,
or the foot and leg, has been burned, it
is best, when practicable, to plunge the
part at once into jug or pail, or other
convenient vessel, filed with the soda To-
ton, and keep it there until the pain
subsidies; or the limb may be swathed or
encirclad with a surgeons cotton band
age previously soaked in the saturated
solution and kept constantly wetted with
it, the relief being usually Immediate,
provided the solution be saturated and
cold.

TRANSLATED FROM LENAu.

Why do thy lingering lips in loves caress
These faded scentles blossoms fondly press &?
Thrown in the dust, forgot and cast aside
BY her upon whose gentle breast they died
Ih1nk'st thou their bloom may be again renewed
When by thy tears of love they are believed?
1hou Dreameri by withered leaf beguiled,
Plucked off in playtime by pretty child
Fantastic Dreamer, do thy thoughts yet cling
ABOUT that corpse, poor faded, pal1d thing?
What can thy kisses and thy tears awaken?
Hath it not been forgotten and forsaken
By the fair soul who fed in haste away,
When she had used it for an hour of play?

THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.

The Regular Monthly Meeting Held Tester
day AffermOon-Bmsiness of Interest
Transacted.
Yesterday afternoon the regular monthly
meeting of the board of education was
held at the Office of Secretary johnson.
Prof. Moore reported the total enroll
ment in the day schools to be 1852, while
the number of pupils attending the even
ing schools is $50.
Several changes in the corps of teachers
were reported.
The Accommodations of the night schools
are proving entirely inadequate to the de :
mand. Prof. Moore stated that the enroll
ment on Tuesday evening was over 400.
Prof. Moore contributed communica-
ton bringing out many important sugges-
tions concerning the government of the
schools, and the proper studies to be pur-
sued by the schools.
After short discussion the matter of
securing an additional building for the use
of an evening school, was referred to the
committee upon buildings, with power to
act.
The following schedule of salaries of
teachers in the night schools was adopted:
For the principal, $3.50 per evening; for
teachers, 50; for janitor for the first room
opened, fifty cents; for each additional
room opened twenty-five cents.
The matter of making ali educational
exhibit at the meeting of the State Educe
tional association to be held in st. Paul
commencing Dec. 26, and occupying three
days, was left at the discretion of Prof.
Moore.
After the transaction of little routine
business, the meeting was adjourned.

and became one of the youngest professors
of the Sapienza in Rome. In 1848 he sup
ported the reforms of Plus X; then gave
himself altogether to theological science,
and illustrated with an immortal work the
dogma of the immaculate conception. In
the vatican frescos his figure is next that
of Plus IL. In 1859 his liberal feelings
were aroused, and he left Rome and re-
paired to Piedmont, where he wrote the
pamphlet PRO Causa Italica," and two
other pamphlets under the pseudonym of
''Filalete.'' In 1861 he was nominated
professor of the Turin university, and in
1862 he opened an address of the liberal
clergy, inviting the pope to give up the
temporal power. In 1868 he was sent to
parliament. He then kept quiet until two
years ago, when he printed some lectures
against divorce. Domestic troubles had
shaked his liberal faith, until, lately, hav-
ing come to Rome, he submitted to eccle-
siastical authority and was welcomed by
the pope.
The late elections prove that only one
third of the 100000 electors of Italy have
gone to the ballot box.

THE FOSTER DIVORCE SUIT.

Hrs. Foster Granted the Custody of the
Children and SIG, ESQ Alin.omy.
New HAVEN, Nov. 23.-The famous Meri-
den divorce suit of Foster VS.. Foster was
decided in the superior court here to-day
in favor Of the wife. The respondent,
Samuel II. Foster, is wealthy manufact-
urer of cabinet hardware in Meriden, and
has been prominent in local Republican
politics. He is a swarthy, heavily-built
man of thirty -iye. The CORES pondent is
Miss Hattie Symonds, a pretty little blonde
school teacher, who, until recently, has
borne an excellent reputation in the COM
munity. The scandal first became public
last summer, when Mrs. Foster left her
husband, taking her two minor children,
and began suit for divorce, the custody
OF the children, and $4,000 alimony. She
is most estimable woman, pretty, and
highly educated. and a relative of Mr..
Stanley Of the Stanley Rule and Level
company in New Britain, and is connected
by maria ge with other leading families in
the state. While the gossips were discuss
ing the separation of man and wife, anoth-
er sensation was caused by Foster going to
| the house of friend of his wife, with
| whom Mrs. Foster and her children had
| found temporary shelter, and, with an axe,
| breaking down door and assaulting one
| of the inmates of the house in a vain eff
| fort to recover possession of the children.
| For this he was fined in the Meriden police
| court.
| Clerk Ingersoll of the superior court was
| appointed committee to try the divorce
case, which came before him on Monday
last In the answer filed by Mr.. Foster he
| pleaded that he did not commit adultery
and that if he did his wife condoned it and
conniyed at it. For nearly two days the
five lawyers consulted in the hope of reach
| ing settlement that would obviate the
necessity of public trial. Friends of the
Fosters also exerted themselves for the
| same purpose. At length an agreement
was reached, and the committee proceeded
to privately hear the case as set forth by
Mrs. Foster in her complaint. This after
noon the report of the committee was sub
mitted to Judge Sanford. The report
found that the facts in general us alleged
| in the divorce petition had been proved
| awarded the custody of the two children
| to the petitioner, and, as per agreement
| Of counsel, gave the wife $16,25O alimony
| the same to be paid on or before next Tues
| day. 1t was also agreed that $1,000 OF
| the alimony should be set aside for the
support of the children, Charles 81. Corn.

port of the committee. and issued the di.
| vorce decree. Mrs. Foster did not ask that

will marry and go west Both have siren
| uously denied that they were ever guilty OF

ASSAULTED ANOTHER GIRL.

Harry Lucas, n CoI0red Nan, Fined Agnin
for Taxing Improper Liberties " til a

HIS Beem Mcted Out to- Hia, for Such
O.Yensc.
It will be remembered by the readers of
the GLOBE, that few weeks since Harry
Lucas, darkey who runs restaurant on
Nicollet avenue, under Heaton's
shoe store, was found guilty
of assaulting white girl
in his euploy and fined for the offense.
The girl in that case alleged that Lucas
sat in her lap and took improper liberties,
but the court, owing to preponderance
of testimony introduced on the part of the
defendant, he having marshaled his force
of walters as witnesses to condone the Of
tense, only imposed nominal fine, hold
ing the ''coon'' guilty upon his acknow-
Lodging that he actually sat in the girls
lap, but was sin fun
Yesterday the heavy hand Of the law
was again laid upon Lucas and he was ar
raigned before Judge Cooley upon war
rant issued at the instance of one of his
Luca's) waiter girls-who is ''no bigger
than pint of cider"-charging him with
assaulting her in back room, taking i'm
proper liberties with her, and treathening
to strike her should she cry
out SO as to attract the
attention of any of the ''help'' in the
restaurant.
The testimony in the case fully sus.
tanned the allegations in the warrant. The
girls testimony was clear, but in defense
Lucas avowed that the charge was prepos
teronS Ha had no evil DESIGNS uDOO the
girl. If he had he should have selected q
more opportune time than when his restau-
rant was full of walters. And sc
went on very gIbly, but nevertheless
IN mis- effort to impress the court of his
utter innocence. he made conflicting state
ments. He acknowledged that he did take
the girl by the shoulder in the back room
but was only playing with her. The judge
read him moral lecture and made the
fine $3.50, which included the costs.
