If we are to believe reports to re
publican papers, Col. Morrow is the
most gifted of the latter day orators.
He spoke at Mt. Sterling Monday and
''for minutes" says the imaginative
reporter. "held his audience motion
less while he waved his mighty silvery
wand of elOquence with which he
touched every heart, and made man
almost forget he was living. Many
democrats and republicans declared it
to be the most powerful speech ever
delivered in our Courthouse" This
is too utterly too too overwhelmingly
over.done. Col. Morrow is good
speaker and clever man but he has
never been accused before Of such
remarkable eloquence.

The New York Sm reviyes the
story that Stanley Matthews was nom
mated by Garfield for the Supreme
bench in consideration of 100000
paid by Gould to carry the elections
in Indiana. The Sun backs up the
statement with strong evidence and
asserts that had il not been for de-
ception practiced on two Senators,
who we're misled as to the position of
the two absent Senators with whom
they were paired, he would not have
been confirmed even after his high
priced nomination.

HENRY WARD BEECHER was &c
years old last Sunday and the event
was celebrated by the Brooklynites in
grand style. Wonder if the crowd
which pressed to congratulate the old
reprobate thought once of the poor
woman he wronged and who is now
wearing her life away, neglected and
disgraced. Wehave no patience with
such toadyism, neither do we think
that such papers as the COurier.Jour-
nal and Others should insult its read -.
ers by publishing every Monday, the
alleged sermons Of one who has for
feited his right to the pulpit and to
the respect of decent people.
THE democratic members of Con-
gress are responsible for the reduction

THE Cincinnati Commercial Gdscite,

oinces prate ABOUT the pr0nib a,

management of affairs either in State
or National government Look at
the theiving hordes at Washington
who under the name of officers, steal
millions of dollars yearly from the
people, and after one is brought up for

the result with big demonstration of
approval and make heroes of the ras-

for Kentucky republicans to talk
about malfeasance in office, and the

chance at improving affairs till they
have given better evidence that they
can do SO, than they have shown any
where that they have had the power.

Women and Their Ways.

A Mexican lady of rank visiting in
this country, has hair seven and q half
feet long. It's cost is not quoted.
Mr.. Charles Dickens said; ~ suppose
tAe world needs few eeniuses to live
in it, but it's a dreadful fate to have to
live with one of them.
Last winter a Missouri girl leaped
into q river for suicide, but, finding the
water distressingly cold, she got oHt AS
soon as possible. She declared that she
simply postponed her death until she
could drown more comfortably; aud
now, with the first warm weather, she
has ex cuted her purpose.
At Yarmouth, Ind, last week, lady
with q baby in a little carriage was talk
ing TO another lady and letting down

finger lay across the side and was cut
entirely oft. The lady did not know it
until she saw its bleeding finger on the
sidewalk at her feet, as the baby was
asleep and did not cry.

Tbs StraMberrY Disaster.

The new enemy to the strawberry
grower has completely dumfounded
those who were calculating on large
crop of these berries. The first rumors
of disaster were lightly treated as a
mere local affair of trAing Importance,
but two or three days more showed
that wide spread ruin awaited the crop
from this insect. Very few fields are
yet free from its attacks. Every grower
with whom we have conyersed on this
subject expresses alarm and is already
more or less p sufferer. MIR. W. w.
Piater reports his fields 30 completely
ruined that he has abandoned the crop.
Mr.. Earle is heavy sufferer and thinks
he will not be able TO pick more than
half his crop, five acres of his Sharp
less berries are total loss. Whole
handfuls of berries may be grssped
from a plant Of which every berry is
sucked dry and rendered worthless.
Mr.. Earle expected to obtain $4,000
cases of berries from his fields, where
now he hardly thinks he will get 5000,
so destructive has been the work of this
insect.
Professor Forbes, the state ento.
mologist, who is now investigating the
nature, habits and depredations of this
insect in this and adjoining country,
says that the injury done by all the
othcl insects affecting the strawberry
does not equal IN amount of the dam
age done by this new pest. 1t is at
first small, eleen, fat. louse-like bug
about one-sixteentn of an inch ia
length, which gradually grows to be
nearly one-fourtn of an inch long and
changes to a dull russety color, acquir-
ing wings and flying when full grown.
The Sharpless is its favorite, hardly a
berry escaping, while the Crescent is
scarcely injured at all.-FARMER AND

Then again when the fruit gets ripe

answer, because all new kinds hav
come from the seed; not only of straw
berries, but all new grapes have come
from the seed: and not only these, but
all new and high priced fruit has come
from the seed. Peaches, pears, apples,
and all the new currants and gooseber-
ries have Come from the seed. Friend

are small things ct the start SO is gold
found in very small particles. So are
diamonds small things when compared
with a granite bowlder So are great
many other things considered small,
when in fact they are any thing else but
small.
Now, LET no one be deferred rom
raising seedlings from al kinds of iruit,
not only from strawberries, but from
all fruits. 1t may be you will hit on q
good thing at the very start. | claim it
is worth the effort, and il we never try
we will never succeed, as q matter of
course; and if you fail the first time,
try again; for who will say we do not
need better strawberries, as well as bet
ter grapes | mean grapes that will not
all ROT !; peaches that are as large as
the Crawfords and Old Mxons, that will
stand 200 below zero; apples that are
as fine SO the Baldwin and Northern
Spy; that will hang on the trees till the
last of October, and keep till the first
of May following.
And how shall we get these in any
other way than TO raise them from tho
seee? Take the last ripening of these
and plant the seed, and we may get
them by this means; if not, try again.
There may be something small or little
in this, bat / can't see it.
Now, let boys and girls who are fond
of flowers and plants, experiment
with seedlings OF all kinds of
fruits, and especially grapes and straw
berries. They may hit on something
better than gold mine. If nothing
more, it will afford them good deal
of amusement.

THE FIRST BLOOD.
A Tragedy in Connection with the
Striks of | linoig G. al Miners.
One Man Killed and anotherWounded
by the Militia near Bell VILE.

The inevitable result Of the continued
riotous demonstrations of the striking
coal miners was reached Saturday, and
life has been sacrificed in order that
the law might be sustained. In the
morning a large number of women and
girls, wives and daughters of the strik-
ors, started out to assist the men in
conducting the warfare upon the boss.
es. They first visited tho RosehiIl
mines, near the town, where they sub
lected the engineer, who was engaged
IN raising steam, to pretty harsh treat
ment, almost tear. G his clothing from
his person, and threatening to duck him
in the pond. They finally compelled
him to draw his fires, and in this way
prevented the operation of the mine.
The TACT that women were engaged in
the work rather nonplussed the officers
They did not know how to handle
them, but afterward they were Joined
by force of some 800 men and made
descent upon Conrad Reinecke's
mine No / in Dutch Hollow, five miles
west Of BslleviIle. A force of men had
been put TO work in this mine early in
the morning, and the object of TIE
strikers IN visiting the place was to get
these men out. The women were
ARMED WITH BLhCKsNAKE WHIPS
and clubs, which made it appear that
II the men were brought out they
would be treated to whipping. In
order to insure the safety of his men,
Mr. Reinecke directed that the pit he
closed, and the men were thus impris-
oned IN the bowels of the earth. The
mine was being guarded by a deputy
sheriff and four subordinates, and, it
soon becoming apparent that they could
not MAINTAIN the peace, the governor
was communicated with, and asked to
send aid. There were three companies
OF troops lying at E tst st. Louis, the
same forces that had been used at Col
lInsville, and these were dispatched to
the scene of trouble. The trim bear.
ing the soldiers reached the mine about
D T. NJ, when, nst as it was slowing
up to permit the soldiers to disembark
q missile of some kind went crashing
through one of the car windows. Some
say II was rock, others that it was q
shot fired by the strikers, but, however
this may be, the soldiers at once COM
mepced firing throu h the windows.
One OF the miners WAS killed outright
and another was wounded. The sol
dlers jumped from the train, and run
niog after the strikers who had begun
to flee in all directions, endeavored to
effect some arrests. 1t is reported that
In dong this one miner was run
through with a bayonet. During al
the firing the women were on the hill
on the opposite side of the track from
where the shooting occurred, and hence
were IN 40 danger. At this hour, T.
NJ, everything Is quiet, and TIE mines
are IN possession OF the soldiers.

Growing Strawberries from Seed.

j. B. Miller, the Farmer and Fruit
Grower, very pleasantly discusses the
subject Of producing ew fruits from
seed, which we hope will be read with
Interest, and that some at least will b
simulated to try their hand at one of
the most interesting phases of garden
life. Mr.. Miller is the originator of the
famous Sucker State strawberry, and
speaks from experience:
First, select your berries when thor.
oughly ripe. Take sharp knife and
peel off the berry just under the seeds
and spread the piece flesh side down
on brown paper, and put the paper
away in some shady place where there
is free circulation of air, SO the seed
will not mold. The name Of the yari-
ETY. should be written on the paper.
The piece will soon get dry enough that
the seeds Will easily rub { fl. The seeds
can then be packed away for further
use as they are, or, if preferred, rub.
bed oil and put away in small packages
of paper.
Purdy says to plant SIS con az you
can after you secure the seeds. but
End it the better plan to keep the seed
till fall, and SOW them In well prepared
beds on the north side OF a fence. The
seed bed must be mellow and rich. BY
this plan | get nearly all the see to
come. When grown in the middle OF
,ummer | could succeed in getting but
a few to grow. l think the seeds ger
inmate better after being well dried in
the shade.
There are various ways of getting the
seed out of the fruit, bat find this the
cheapest and best after all. Sow in little
drills. about one-half inch apart ia the
rows, and the rows wide enough apart
to work between with a small hoe. This
is all that Is necessary the first season.
Early the next season you may expect
to see the young plants showing them
selves above tie ground about the time
other small seeds IRE coming through
provided you did lot cover them too
deeply.

any other small plans till they start

with the iough old world. And then
the midnight kisses with which she
routed 80 many bad dresms, as she
leaned over your restless pillow, have
all been on interest these long, long
years. OF course. she is not 80 pretty
and kissable as you are, but if you had
done your share OF the work during the
last ten years, the contrast would not
be so marked. Her face has more
wrinkles than yours--far more; and
yet, if yeu were sick, that would ap-
pear more beautiful than an Angels, as
it lowered over you, watching every
opportunity TO minister to your com
fort, and every one OF those wrinkles
would seem to be bright wavelets Of
sunshine chasing esch other over the
dear face. She will leave you one Of
these days. These burdens, if not
lifted from her shoulders, win break
her down. Those rough, hard hands,
that have done so many necessary
things for you will be crossed upon her
breast. Those neglected lips that gave
you your first baby kiss, will be forever
closed, and those sad, tired eyes will
have opened in eternity, and then you
will appreciate your mother; but II
will be too late.

a SIMMER DAY.

There's gaping rent in the curtain,

And ought so be done to-day.

While watching this silyery cloud
And how can / finish the garment

Such stories above my head,
That l can but lie and listen,
And the book is all unreal.

And the dreamy is laden
With their odors rare and sweet.
The honey-bees hum in the clover.
