a theatrical company "UncIes Toms
Cabin' is going through the South, and
bloodhounds are Introduced in the
chase of Eliza, the fugitive slave. The
play does not seem to excite much
animosity among the people, but the
dogs arc objected to. ia Norfolk the
feeling ran SO high that the canine
feature was omitted from the perfor-
nance. The hounds used for the pur-
pose of tracing runaway slaves were
not bloodhounds, according to the
assertion of several old Nirginians, but
were common hounds, trained to follow
anything, even a wagon. They were
not used for hunting, but were kept
only for the purpose of tracing fugitive
slaves. They We're harmless, So far
as biting was concerned. n South
Carolina man, who formerly owned a
thousand negroes, declares that no
genuine bloodhound was ever seen in
that State.

ECONOMY ON THE FARM.

On the farm, and in all the various
details of rural and domestic life, pru-
dence and just economy Of time and
means are incumbent in an eminent
degree. The earth itself is composed Of
atoms, and the most gigantic fortunes
consist of aggregated items, insignifi-
cant in themselves, individually con-
sidered, but majestic when contempla-
ted in unity and as a whole. In the
management of farm, all needless
expenditure should be Systematically
avoided, and the income made to eX-
coed the outlay as far as possible.
Pecuniary embarrassment should al
ways be regardedasa contingency ofevll
boding, and if contended against with
energy and persevering fortitude, it
must soon be overcome. Debt, with
but little hope of its removal, is mill
stone dragging US down and crushing
the life-blood out of us. Be careful,
therefore, in mourning any pecuniary
responsibility which does not present a
clear deliverance with the advantages
which wise use of it ought always to
insure.
A farmer who purchases good farm
and can pay dow one third of the price,
give mortgage for the other two
thirds, and possesses the heart and res
olution to work it faithfully and well,
enters upon the true path to success.
He will labor with encouraging know
ledge that each days exertions will
lessen his indebtedness and bring him
nearer to the goal when he shall be
disenthralled and becomes a freeholder
in its most cheering sense. But with
out due economy in every department,
in the dwelling as well as in the barns
and in the fields, this gratifying achieve
ment may not be reached until late in
life or may be indefinitely postponed.
A prudent oversight therefore, over all
the operations Of a farm, in order that
every thing may be done that ought
to be done and nothing be wasted, will
exert a powerful influence in placing a
family on the high road to an early

WHEN President Arthur was about to set
out on his Yellowstone park expedition he
made his plans to start on Sunday. Sec
retary Folger, who very well understood
what sort of frolic it was to be, urgently
requested the President to change his time
of starting, and not set out on Sunday. lie
pointed out the effect such proceeding
would have on the minds of the Christian
people of the country. The President
thought it over for day or two and finally
decided to start at four o'clock Monday
morning. Ex-President Grant, who is
devout Methodist, is not Sunday traveller,
neither does he go fishing on the Sabbath
day. A few days since his friend General
Porter, who is having vacation, telegraph
ed him from the Catskill mountains that
directors car was at his service for trip
to Long Branch on Sunday. Gen. Grant
declined the proffer, and at the same time,
so that invitations need not be sent him
for Sunday pleasurihgs, said: 81 always
tried not to travel on Sunday when held
Office, and there does not seem to be any
reasonable excuse for it now." In follow
ing the example of his predecessor, Gen.
Grant, President Arthur would stand bet
ter in the esteem of Christian people, even
though they knew he had no conscience in
the matter.

The denial made by Mr.. DriscoIl that
the Pioneer Press had suppressed the an
nual report of Gen. Sanborn, president of
the st. Paul chamber of commerce. in a
part of its edition, seems to have been a
rash performance. In addition to the
information already given, it can
now be stated that Gen. Sanborn was
supplied with copies of the ST. Paul and
Minneapolis edition of the PIP. of the
date in question, and that over a month
sgo he exhibited the copies at the chamber
and numerous members can testify to their
own knowledge to the omission and to the
falsity of Mr.. Driscoll's denial. The
GLOBE has obtained copy of the
issue of the Pioneer Press of June -
as circulated in st. Paul which contains the
report of Gen. Sanborn, and copy of the
same date as circulated in Minneapolis
wherein the report is entirely omitted.
These papers are now on exhibition at the
GLOBE counting room, and any one curious
to see how double headed newspaper
is run can inspect them.
1t is quite probable that the
report of Gen. Sanborn appeared in moth
ing but the st. Paul edition and was ex-
cluded from the mails as well as from
Minneapolis. That it was excluded from
Minneapolis is susceptible of proof to any
one choosing to call and inspect the papers
at this Office.

GREAT BRITAIN.

LONDON, Aug 14.--There was long de-
bate characterized with much obstruction
on the part of Irish members in the COM
mons last night on the vote for legal ex-
pense incurred III the recent criminal pros
ecutions in Ireland. Harrington alleged
that Myles Joyce, who was found guilty
and executed as participating in the MUIR
der of the Joyce family in County Galway,
Sept. 18, 1882, was judicially murdered
despite the fact that evidence of his inno-
cenceswas accessible to Earl Spencer, Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland. Callan, member
for Louth, declared the government could
have. brought the Penix park murderers
to justice without the evidence of James
Carey, but that Sir William Harcourt.
home secretary, contrived to have Carey
accepted as informer for the purpose of
endeavoring to connect some of the Irish
members of parliament with the murder.
Parnell repeated the charges of jury pack
ing in Ireland, of the reckless desire of
the government to procure convictions
for the purpose of striking terror among
the people of the country by the tyranni-
cal use of the power of secret INQUIRY.
Porter, attorney general for Ireland,
replying to the remarks of the Irish mem
bers said as long as atrocities in Ireland
went unpunished, means of inquiry allow
ed by law, would be used without shrink
ing.
During the debate in the commons
last evening Harrington charged Lord
Spencer with having Miles Joyce hanged,
when he knew the condemned man was in
nocent. He was called to order for this
remark, and then modified the statement,
as mentioned in the foregoing dispatch.
Healy, member for Monaghan, was also
called to order during the debate for using
violent language against officers of the
crown. Parnell, as a protest against the
conduct of the government, moved that

preparation BE reduced, but his motion was
