AZ REPOSING ~CONCERTTNA.

On Monday afternoon, just as the
gas was being lighted, u young man en-
tered the forward ladies' cabin of Fu]
tom Ferry boat. All the seats were occu
pied except one ,andh he made his way On
steadily to it. He had evidently been
making too many New Years calls.
As the boat started he placed his hat on
the seat aud went to look at himself j IN
the mirror. In his absence a colored
woman With a basket of clothes entered
and took the vacant seat. The young
man saw her, and rushed to get ahead
Of her, bnt he was too late. .

He was compelled to wait until the

obtain his tile. and when he recovered
it, it looked like a %conoertina in repose
and he had to try it On his foot before
he could use it.-N. Y. Sun.

The Sugar Planters of louisa
ma are indebted to Senators Jonas
and Kellogg for their splendid eff
forts in the Senate of the United
States, in preventing the reduction
of the tariff on sugars.
The fight was for a low tariff Oh
sugars such as are made by the
planters and a high tariff on the
refined qualities.
Senator Kellogg deserves the
more credit because lie abandoned
his own party on this question.
The late debates in the Senate
show plainly to whom the sugar
grower must look for his friends,
and they are not to be found to any
extent outside of the Democratic
party.
The aim of the Republican party
in Congress has been to lower the
tariff on agricultural products and
increase them upon the manufae
turerss products. That is to say, te
enable the wealthy monopoly rings
to grow richer, and to reduce thu
laborer and husband man into po,
erty 80 deep that he can never gel
out Of it again.

Beans are hard to keep in this

Beans are hard to keep in this
climate, and therefore very few are
planted for Smelling purposes. With
a little care, however, they can be
kept, but they ought not to be
planted before the first of Aug. so
that they may ripen when the wealth
er gets cooler. When the season is
favorable leave them out till dry
gather the pods and expose them a
few days to the sun. 1t is best to
shell them at once, and after they
are sbelled put them to air and sun
again for a few days longer. Sacks
are better to keep them in, than
barrels or boxes. The Red and
White Kidney are generally the
varieties used for drying. Beans
raised in spring arc hard to keep,
and if intended for seed they should
be put up in bottles, or in tin boxes
and a little camphor sprinkled be
tween them.
Sweet potatoes should be planted
