Slow But Sure.

A real estate dealer in New England
sold seven farms in ten days at prices
averaging about So, 900 each-mostly to
persons who had been in mechanical
business, but who had learned that there
is no property so safe as land, and no
pursuit promising so sure a livelihood
as agriculture. It is an indication of a
general and wholesome tendency of the
time. There are always thousands of
men in these busy streets who left rural
homes many years ago, and who,
weighed down by commercial troubles,
would gladly return, if it were posi-
BILE, to some quiet country neighbor-
hood, feeling sure that they, could at
least raise enough to feed their families
with less strain Of body and mind than
that which is now wearing out their
lives. This is true also of every other
city or town, as witness the following
a fair sample of letters that reach us
from all quarters:
IS am about educated up to the point of be-
heying that small farm Is about the only in.
dependent and satisfactory possession tolers
ably poor man can obtain in the average state
of trade. am now engaged in the book busi-
ness, and, like everything else, it is source
of more worry than revenue, and it requires
constant care and straining to keep ones head
above water"

JAMES BUCHANAN'S NIECE.

Great wealth and exalted station
are no safe guard against the com.
monest ills that befall humanity. It
is just announced that that honored
lady, Harriet Lsne, has lost her hus-
band, Henry E. Johnston, the Balti.
more banker. Sorrows have fallen
thick ard fast upon her in recent
years When / Waited at Wheat
land mere than a year ago they
were then in mourning FIR their
eldest son, James buchanan
Johnston. The Other sen was
convalescing from the same
disease that had carried off his
brother, and his parents hurried
him to Europe in the hope OF saw
ing his life. They had scarcely,
however, reached Paris, before he,
too, was dead. The parents never
recovere from this terrible blow.
They closed their splendid home in
Park Avenue, Baltimore, and the
wealth that hsd been largely ex
pended in hospitality was devoted
to charitable purposes. In mem
CRY of their children they funded
and amply endowed heHarriet Lane
Johnston hos oital for girls and train
ing school for nurses. Mrs. J0nn-
sto withdrew from the society IN
which she had been mosS prominent,
and rarely left the kouse except on
missions of religion and mercy. Mr..
Johnston haiIed rapidly in health
and retired from the control OF the
great banking house. His death
now leaves his distinguished widow
lonely indeed. Their sons were
bright. manly lads, full CT mental
and physical vigor, and gave prom
iss of growing into NOBLE manhood.
The last time l saw Harriet Lane
in the streets O. Baltimore, grief
had worn deep lines in that hand
some face that seemed so attractive
auo so dignifi al under it, crown of
abundant write hair. Oae of her
chief solaces in recsnt years has
been the issuing of Quits life of
her uncle. She was to him more of
a daughter than 8 niece, and she
has been comparatively happy in
the belief that the book has vim
dicated him as patriot and states.
