After a political campaign is over it is
generally well to forget many things that
were said during the heat of the contest,
but there are some things that cannot
well be forgotten by the injured party.
One of these things was an interview
published in the New York Tribune on
the morning of the election with J..
Hirsch, a member of the firm of Einstein,
Hirsch & Co., manufacturers of embroid-
cries and importers of laces, whose fac
tory is at st. Gall, Switzerland, and
whose place of business in New York
city is at Nos. 81 and IS Franklin street.
In the course of the interview Mr.. Hirsch
said:
Ihave lived ten years in the Southern
States, and so have many of my employees.
They all agree that if there is any one
special reason why the Republican party
should not go out of power it is because
we have to beware not to let the ''sOlid
South" gain n 3scendency in the gov
eminent of the United States. In some
of the Southern States there is no such
thing as purity of the ballot. They may
as well take any Democrat and let him
cast the vote for the State of Alabama. In
a county where the Republicans have a
clear majority Of 1000, l challenge any
man to find 200 Republican ballots in the
box an hour after election, although they
have been rightly deposited there. Let
the Democratic chivalry keep their pistols
and knives at home for just one election
day, and you will see the end of a solid
South. If it is left to the actual voters the
Republican party will have more Of the
Southern States than the Democrats.
Mr.. Hirsch formerly did business in
Alabama, where he laid the foundation of
his fortune. He was honored by the State
by being made a commissioner to the
Vienna Exposition. He does a large bust
ness with the South by reason of his for
mer residence. He is well known in Sa-
vannah, and his uncalled for attack on
the South has caused considerable indig-
nation among those who know him.
Bartholomew Binns is no longer a lead

Savannah may yet become a great coal
shipping port. The repeal of the import
duty on coal by the Brazilian Govern
men will be almost sure to attract South
err miners to that market, and this is I'M
dOubte1ly the best point from which ship
ERents can be made. By taking hold of the
business properly Savannah might add
immensely to its trade by exporting coal
and importing coffee. There is no reason
WAY this city should not supply the South
aud West with the greater part of the
coffee consumed by the people of those
sections of the country.

Lhey thought was a big sensation in New
York the other day. A squad of 81 negroes
from Galveston landed IN that city en- route
interviewed, and the Disguised inter-

The fatal case of yellow fever that was
imported into New York the other day
Gid no. cause any great alarm among the
People Of that city, owing to the lateness
20 the season. 1t naturally caused con-
siderable anxiety, however, about the
manner in which the quarantine regula-
lions are enforced there. If it was so easy
Tor this case to slip in, may not cholera
get in with equal ease or yellow fever be
spread Throughout the city at any time
next summer. There are well-grOunded
fears that the appearance of cholera in
New York is only a question of time, and
perhaps not a very far distant time at
t3as.

He Felt No Effects.

Uncle Abe was fond Of 'possum. Hay-
ing caught one, he got his wife Dinah
to cook it for him, and requested that
it. should be placed in the cupboard I'M
til morning. The favor was granted,
and Uncle Abe lay down before q log
fire and went to sleep. His son Nose,
coming in late, got the 'possum and ate
it, laid the bones down at Uncle Abe's
head, smeared the old mans face and
hands with the grease, and went to
bed. The following morning Uncle
Abe awoke and asked Dinah: ..Whar's

and found it missing.

Tame Grasses ID the West.

In2the prairie regions Of the great
west, for some time after the country
is settled, only native grasses are need
ed. The condition Of q settled country
are not congenialt to the wild grasses,
and while they do remain they are not
T quite equal in value tothe tame grasses.
AS, a rule, tame grasses furnish feed
aboutsa month earlier in the spring,
and the same length Of time later in
autumn, than the wild grasses. When
the wild grasses begin to dry up IN the
fall they are tougher than tame grasses
with the exception Of the buffalo and
bunch grasses Of the arid region along
the eastern slope OF the Rocky noun
tains. There is no kind of forage which
will fatten cattle faster than our native
prairie grasses during the growing
season, from the middle Of May to the
middle of August.
Tame hay is more nutritious, but
stock usually like good prairie hay bet
ter. Tame hay must be made at q
season when rains are frequent; while
the best time to make prairie hay is in
the month of August and the early part
Of September, when, as q rule, but lit
tie if any rain may be expected.
Eastern farmers, when they first come
west, think that they could cut their
prairie hay early in july, as they have
been accustomed to cut tame grass.
Wild hay, made early in July, is of
poor color and flavor. as well as lack
ing in nutritive qualities. All the yalu-
able wild grasses here are late in bloom
ing. At the time Of writing (Septem-
Der 10, Blue Joint and Indian Grass,
or Wood Grass, which are considered
by farmers two of our most valuable
native GRASSES, are still in full bloom.
However valuable the wild grasses may
be, the tame grasses are also needed.
In the latter part of the growing season
tame grasses furnish a better quality
of feed than the wild sorts.
The first and simplest mode is to SOW
tame grass seed, especially Timothy
and blue grass, on the native prairie,
when it first begins to fall from tramp
ING or too close feeding. This seeding
should, if possible, be done early in
the spring, on one of the late snovA
If the soil, when soft, be well scarifsl
with a sharp harrow, it will increase
the chances of catch. With good
seed sown in this way, success is al
most certain.
The only kinds Of tame grasses that
have been extensively tested west Of
the Missouri, are: Timothy, Kentucky
blue grass, and orchard grass. Only
red clover and white clover have been
grown on scale sufficiently extensive
to justify absolute confidence. Red top
has been tried in a few instances with
success, but only, so far as the writer
is informed, on low and moist land.
OF the five first-named grasses, by far
the best to stand dry weather is orchard
grass. OF twenty kinds of tame grasses
sown on the Nebraska Agricu cultural
College farm one very dry spring, or
chard grass was the only one that
grew. This grass starts early. keeps
through the hottest weather, and is
good until hard freezing comes. It is
not specially valuable Tor hay, as it is
rather coarse, yet stock seems to like

The First Morning in Bermuda.

Two or three low, sweet bugle notes,
thatI afterwards discovered to be the
morning call Of the bakers boy, and a
burst of jnbilant bird-song awakened
me. It took but a moment to throw
open the window. What contrast to
icy mountains and valleys Of drifted
snow! Before me were large pride-of-
India trees, laden with their long, pen
sdulous racemes of pale lavender, each
separate blossom having a drop of ma
room at its heart Clumps of oleanders,
just blushing into bloom, rose to the
right and the left. Beneath me were
glowing beds of geraniums, callas, roses,
Easter lilies, and the many-hned coleus,
Scarlet blossoms burned against the
dark green of the pomegranate leaves.
There rose the tall shaft of stately
palm; there the spreading fans Of the,
palmetto, or the slender spires Of the
sWaying bamboo. As far as the eye.
could reach was one stretch of unbroken
bloom and verdure. But stop minute!
Surely there are patches OF snow set in
all this greenerY; snoW-covered roofs
glittering in the morning sun, and daz-
zling the eye with their brilliancy. It
took more than glance to discover
that the snow was but the white coral
rock, of which more anon.
1t seemed cruel waste Of time to
go to breakfast, but there was no help
for it. As we passed from beneath our
pride f-Indias to the winding Serpen-
tine, very pretty girl, neatly, even
daintily dressed, and carrying q little
basket lined with scarlet, tripped up to
us. and with a graceful apology for de-
tanning us, in words as well chosen as
those Of any lady, begged the privilege
of doing our washing! The pretty face
was dark, as dark as that of a bronze
Venus. We said Yes, quite shame
facedly, no doubt, and went our way,
wondering what manner Of land this
might be, where melodious .bugle notes

The Largest Living Animal.

What a monster Of contradictions!
An animal which looks like fish,,
but which is notsa fish; which lives al
ways in the water, but which can not
live long under water, and which never
theless will die on land; which has a
mouth large enough to engulf at once
a dozen readers of st. Nicholas, but
whose throat is so small that your faith
er's fist can fill it. .
AWhale! Yes, "a veritable giant among
giants, the largest Of all living crea-
lures. :
To one who does not know the reason
for it, it must seem odd to say that the
whale is not a fish. But, in fact, it is
no more a fish than YOU are. A fish
has cold blood. and takes the little oxy-
gen it needs from the water by means
of gills; while the whale must take It's
oxygen from the atmospheric air, just
as you do.
You need to take oxygen into your
lungs to give to your blood at very
short intervals, 50 that you can not ex-
list for more than two or three minutes
at the utmost without breathing OF
course it would not do for the whale
to have to breathe so often, for in that
case he could never stay under water
long enough to secure his food, and
would consequently starve.
10 provid against this catastrophe
the Whaleiis enabled to charge reser-
yoir OF blood with oxygen, and thus.
with an hours supply Of ;serated blood,
it can dive down and remaiin under
water until the supply is exhausted.
Should il be detained after the supply
sEgone, it will dr ewn as surely as your
own self. IS
The tail is set transversely to the
body, and it's motion, unlike that Of
the same member ina fish, is up and
down; and with such vigor does it
move that the surround Ing water is
forced into a series OF wlirling jeddies.
This tail is. moreover, the whale 8

does make use of It's head or Of It's

He Was Too Late.

y :
Among the passengers on the train
over the Lansing road the other day
f was an old man with q sore eye and q.
squeaky voice and stiff neck. The
train had scarcely left the capital city
when he caught the conductors arm,
and asked if the next station was Liv-
Onia. 81 Isl
No, sir; Livonia is fifty miles down
the road, was the reply.
At Okemos the old gent asked the
same question, and received about the
same reply. At WILLIAMSBURG he ap-
pealed to the passengers, and refusing
to be convinced he pushed his head out
of the window and lost his hat. As
the brakeman announced Fowlerville
