Miss Conkling Roscoe's Daughter.

A New York correspondent has the
following concerning the Hon. Roscoe
Conkling and his only daughter.
| will tell story | do not vouch
for though l got it from a COOL
source. and believe it to BE- true.
Roscoe Conkling has only one child
by his wife, Horatio Seymour's sister
This daughter is all Conkling. She
was kept in Washington awhile, but
her ambitious father sldom took her
into society, and her mother hal no
social force, SO the girl, growing up
into the strength and instinct OF our
animal lot, found no man admiring
her until at Utica, where they live. a
young person in a railroad had tn
courage to step forward and woe her.
Then the selfish father felt his
pride wounded. He turned upon the
daughter, assisted by his wife in pro-
testing, and Meeting the naughty
spirit of himself who never desired
anything, office or woman, but he
thought it must be his, he dropped
his tone and began to beg.
81 am your father" he said, "and |
ought to beconsulted in your marriage
ibis man Is not up to your fathers
rank.
81 was not consulted when you be
came my father" exclaimed Mis-:
Conkling. Il think if had been
should have selected another father.
All the politicians of Conkling':
school believe he is deeply, perma
nently enamored of Mrs. Sprague. and
that this false position is the cause O
his Byronic melancholy and temper

The Good of Following.

Nearly all the good of following is
ad by green crop that is either
sr, or fed to live stock, and
rntnrnAa TO tha land A
soil gains in its stock of available plant
food BY growing crops, if none Of the
soil elements are removed. Pastursge
is one of the best methods of recruit
ing land. Potash and phosphoric a.
cid are brought up from the lower soil
by the roots, and finally deposited on
the surface or in the turf. In a like
manner, the nitric acid that might
have escaped in the drainage water, is
captured by the roots, and changed to
a fixed form in organic compounds
A quicker method of renewing the
strength of feeble soil is to grow some
scavenger plant, like buckwheat, and
pillow under the whole crop. thus add
ing organic matter rapidly to the sur
face soil. This may be followed by
clover, a plant that has special rem
ovating power, and by growing thro'
out the whole season is one of the best
means of gathering and holding fer
tility. The fallow is valuable, but in
most cases growing crop does larger
and more lasting work Of restoration.

An Outside WhiteWash

Few people know how easily white
wash is ade, and how valuable it is
when applied, 1t not only prevents
the decay of wood. but is greatly con-
ducive to the healthfulness of build
ings. whether wood or stone. Out
buildings and fences, when not paint
ed, should be supplied once or twice a
year with a good colt of whitewash.
which should lie prepared in the fol-
lowing way:
Take clean. water-t tight barrel, or
other suitable cask, and put into it
about half bushel of linz Stake it
by pouring water over it, boiling hot,
and put in sufficient quantity of wa
ter to cover it five inches deep, and
stir it briskly till thoroughly slaked.
When the shaking has been thorough
ly effected, dissolve it in water, and
ado two pounds Of sulphate zinc and
common salt. These will cause the
wash to harden and prevent its crack
ing, which gives an unseenly appear
ancs to the work.
If desirable, a beautiful cream color
may be given to the above wash by adj
ding three pounds of yellow ochre, or
a good pearl, by lead, lamp vim or ivy
black. For fawn color, add 2 pounds of
lumber, Turkish or American-the lat
ter is the cheapest-one pound Of In
dian red, one pound of common lamp
black. For common stone color, add
four pounds of raw lumber and two
pounds of lampblack.

Vegetable DEVELOPMENT.

The great majority Of our vegetables
are quite unlike the plant in its wild
state. BY cultivation through long
series of years, some part of the plant,
that portion most useful to man, has
taken on an unnatural development.
This may occur in the root, as in the
carrot; the tuber as in the potato; in
the bulb as in the onion in the stem as
in kohl-rabi; in the leaves as spinach !;
in the leaf stalk as in rhubarb, or in
the terminal bud, of which cabbage is
an example. The fruit is changed in
large number, as in the squashes, to-
mato, ETC., and finally the seeds them
selves are modified, as the reas, beans,
sweet corn, etc. These portions have
not only been increased in size, but
they have acquired peculiar color, fla
vor, ETC., which add to their value
When these plants are grown under
unfavorable conditions, they revert in
greater or less degree to their origi-
nal wild state. The carrot affords a
marked illustration of reversion. AL
lowed to sow its own seed in poor soil
in autumn, the plant which comes up
the following spring is left to fight its
way among grass and other plants, land
in few years it becomes the we'll
known "wiId carrot" The small root
Of this has been, by few years Of cul-
tivation, brought from its woody con-
dition to the large tender root We know
in the carrot. Many other examples
could be cited of the tendency Of Gull
tivated plants to retrograde, but this
is sufficient to show that the first point
in seed growing is good cultivation Of
the plants which bear the seed. They
must be kept from reverting towards
their first condition indeed, one of the
methods of improving plants, and, con-
sequently their seeds, is to provide the
conditions which will allow them to
assume their greatest Development
In other words, high cultivation is
necessary in growing the best seeds.

James Harper's Joke,

James Harper, late of the famous
publishing house of Harper 4 Bros,
was wit and quiz. The first time
we met him, he poked fun at us in a
way which was not quite agreeable,
because we were so much younger a
man, and did not dare then to pay him
back in his own coin. But when We
came to know him we'll, he was one of
the most enjoyable Of men. He had
the rare gift of being able to take the
conceit out Of men without treating
them maliciously. His wit frightened
while Fletcher's humor softened the
whole air of the Harper House.
We recollect one case of James Har-
per's quizzing.
DIR. John Early, of Virginia, was in
life made Bishop of the Southern
Methodist Church. He was an old
man when he became General Book
Agent for the Southern Methodist
Church. His style was warm in
preaching. Once, on visit of New
York, he was invited to preach in the
Mulberry Street Church, which we be-
lieve was then the fashionable Meteod-
list Church in New York. 1t was in
the time of the agitation of the slavery
question. DR.. Early preached a rous.
ing sermon. \ vocieferous brother
from Bedford Street Church was pre-
sent. BY the time DR.. Early was
half through, the brother was on a
full tide Of "glory" and halleluiah,"
and accompanied the old Virginia
preachers peroration with a shout.
James Harper kept his eye upon him;
knew that he was violent abolitionist
and determined to have some fun ont
Of him. The brother believed that
James Harper knew everything; and
so, at the close of the sermon, went to
him, and said:
"Ah! Brother Harper, that's what
| call regular, royal, old-fashioned
Methodist preaching. That the kind
that comes from the hearts and goes
to the heart..''
"You like him, them" said NJ.
Harper.
"Like him. said the brother; "ah :,
it is heavenly. Brother Harper, who
in the world is it:?''
Don't You know who that is::' said
Mr.. Harper.
"No; but | want to know, for | new
er heard such preaching"
"Why, don't you know" said Mr..
Harper, 'that that is old John Early
of Virginia, the old STAKEHOLDER, who
stirred up the Accomac mob against
the abolitionists?"
The shouting brother 'dried up" in
a minute
1T is" said he. Il wish | had
known that when he was preaching,
| never would have shouted once
OF course, the story about DR.. Early
had no foundation in fact. He was
the last man, probably, in the South
of whom such a thing could be true,
James Harper knew that, but he nus.
have his fun.
DIR. Early was staying at his house,
and when they returned. Mr.. Harper
told him what had occurred. He smil-
ed, and said. in his quick way:
"Shame, SIR You ought to
know better-you ought to know bet
ter than to tell supplemented
brother such a story as that"

Working the Soil too Early.

T While we are all we'll aware of the
great Importance of early action in all
gardening operations, and are apprised
of the fact that hundreds of dollars are
often realized by being one or two
weeks ahead in the market, or that an
equal amount may be lost by being a
week or two behind a more enterpris-
ing neighbor, we find also that heavy
losses are often the result Of beginning
outdoor operations too early, when the
soil is not sufficiently dry. If the soil
is worked in early spring, while wet,
it is very injurious, not only to the
present crops, but also to the land for
years afterwards. Another condition
of success in gardening is to have the
soil as soft as pillow and harrow can
make it; cross blowing and narrowing
are necessary in order to get the soil
in the best possible filth. The man
ure should be as fine as it can be made
or else it cannot be spread evenly. We
would advise a mixture Of all manure
made on the farm for application to
the farmers garden. The market gar
dener near our large cities gets up all
kinds Of fertilizers, and often fails of
raising good crops from using poor
manure heated in the stables, and so
entirely devoid of ammonia, the great
agent Of plant growth. i
Let us warn you to prepare for har-
vest. Have everything ready when it
comes, which it does sometimes very
Unexpectedly, forced rapidly into ripe
ness by hot suns and gentle rains

Contested Cases in nhin.

Ohio Will be prolific of contested seat cases
in the next Congress-. The vote was so close In
several OF the districts as to invite struggle
by the defeated candidate. In the Seventh
District the oficiai canvass gave the election
to Morey, the Republican nominee, by
plurality OF IL. HIS Democratic opponent be-
lieves that he can prove his right 10 the seat
and has been taking testimony for some timo.
His own showing gives him majority OF 1877
and he hopes to increase this TO nearly 200.
Mr.. Morey has just begun to take eyid ence, 80
the strength OF his case is not apparent as yet.
That the Government Will be obliged to foot
some extravagant bills for contested seat
cases In the next House is already evident.
Ihe reckless and expensive way In which
some OF the investigations are being carried
on ought 20 convince Congress that a reason
able limit should be put to the business.

perhaps ought to add q single word. 1t was

unanimously selected to represent the defend:
ants, that both Colonel 1ngersoll and myself
should have the privilege of addressing the
jury II, In the judgment of either, It should be
necessary. have felt such deep Interest in
the present case that have almost hoped he
might leave unoccupied some portion of the
word that has fallen from his lips.
Of the case with such matchiess
ability and eloquence that have no ground
upon which could stand In making any fur
ther argument. He has SO fully uncovered
methods and the character and weight OF the
evidence upon which conviction is sought,
that 1 can add nothing whatever to what he
has said. need not add that every syllable
he has uttered receives my grateful indorse-
ment, as well as that of all the defendants and
their counsel in this case.
The Arguments for the Defense
Closed.
The Court-The arguments for the defend
ants are closed, therefore?
Mr.. Davidge-Yes.
Tho Court shall expect the Government to
commence the closing argument on Monday.
Mr.. Merrick-I hope 1t will not be long after
Monday when shall finish. shall, of course,
be ready to proceed on Monday.
The Court-I cannot hope for very brief
argument from you, because you have great
deal OF matter to consider.
Mr.. Merrick-I do not think shall occupy
very long time.
Mr.. payidgeIwell, they have all said that,
The Court-Ishall be agreeably disappointed
II the argument is brief.
The court then adjourned until Monday.
