he, linen prominently connected with lead ing western journals, principally Democratic journals, and impressing upon them that he intends to consider the Tenure Office act as law, that he means to be guided by it and by the civil service rules His desire seems to be to notify the great body of Democrats that they need not come to bother him in Wash ington. One of these whom I have seen said that Cleveland had said that he would make no appointments through members of Con gress. I have no doubt that this is his pres ent view, but also have doubt that he will be utterly unable to carry it out"
 The Great Eastern, which has been too great to be of much use, is to be put to 8 novel use at the New Orleans show. She will be moved alongside the exhibition grounds and will constitute one of the sights. The exhibits shipped in her from England will be shown on board and hotel accommo- dations will be furnished on the vessel for fifteen hundred or two thousand people. Balls will be given on deck every evening with electric lghts and every accessory of gayety, not to mention the supplies from the tap room. She has been chartered for year at a cost of $75,000 and the mana gers expect to make 8 profit on her. The Springfield Union charges not hing for the suggestion that the Great Eastern might be proftably employed by some Yankee combination of manufacturers and merchants to go about the world from port to port car rying great exhibition of American pro- duets. This would be attractive everywhere. The balls and hotel accommodations could be made to reduce the expenses trife, while the advantage of exhibiting our pro ducts in this novel way all over the world would be immense.
 MT. Benett, the director of agriculture in India, has made report on wheat growing which contains some matter of great interest to American farmers. Mir. Benett shows that the actual cost of growing wheat in In- dia, on irrigated land, is 33 rupees per acre, and the product is g bushels of grain and one ton of straw. The straw sells for 2 ru- pees, leaving 26 rupees, or $9.96, as the cost of producing g bushels of wheat. This is 454 cents per bushel. MT. Benett says that there are so many quotations that it is difficult to give the actual cost of wheat raising in America which is easily understood, since tho cost va ries widely in different localities 'tBut, } he says, without expressing decided opinion, it does not appear that the first cost of rais- ing bushel of wheat is less in these prov inces than it is in America" This may cer- tainly be said, that there is vast quantity of land in this country on which the cost of raising wheat is less than 45 cents per bush el. The heavy cost of transportation through India and from that country to Great Britain, being about double the cost of transportation from American farms to Liverpool, gives our producers decided advantage.

Wee thing, silent thing, falling all around me, Fan would be rid of thee, tormentor that thou
 art. Canst thou give poor dame not moment resting? Sooth, but I'd be thankful were we ever far apart. Steadily descending with thy countless atoms, Glistening in the sunlight, unseen in the shade, Resting my very gown, spotless in it's whiteness Faugh! thou art the worst plague yet was
 made What say st thou my conscience, that these hands
 so shapely
 Are in truth the kindred of dust upon the wall? Dust thou art to dust returnest,'' reads the holy
 verdict,
 Faith, I'll stop complaining dust is precious after

Frost stretches forth one icy hand,
 And flowers die The birds far toward the sunny south Begin to fly. A chill wind sweeps across the land, The sky is gray, And shadows of long night steal Upon each day. The dead leaves rustic where they fall, The air is cold, Time writes with unnerved, faltering hand, The year grows old. Loud, fierce and long tempest blows, Then far and near The world lies white beneath my touch, And-I am here.

THE CONTESTS ENDED.


His Valuable Claims.
DR.. Robert Martin last week received
1iotice that the commissioner Of the
general land Office had decided in his
favor in the contest involving the title
to his homestead one mile east of town.
The contest was doubtless commenced
more for blackmalling purposes than
from any expectation of securing the
land, and the decision rendered meets
with the hearty approval Of all who are
acquainted with the facts In the case.
We predict similar termination of
the contest on his timber claim.
Since the above was in type we have
been shown letter from prominent
gentleman in Washington, written un-
der date Of May 13, which says: II have
been to the land office with your case
and had it investigated. To-day I re-
ceived communication from the office
that it was apparent that the decisions
of the register and receiver, in each case,
were erroneous, and that both have been
reversed and the contests dismissed"
We extend to DR.. Martin our hearty
congratulations at this termination Of
the contests he has been forced to fight,
and which he has met with such de-
termination and energy. So confiden4
has he been of the successful outcome
of his cause that he has kept on inn
proving his property, building dwell
ing house, putting in crops, setting out
trees, ETC., and that he may live long to
enjoy his beautiful farm is the wish of

Tides,

Take q square of firmly woven net,
not too large meshed, and haste a
smaller square of sampler canvas upon
it in the center. On this work in the
ordinary cross stitch any pattern that
can be done in one color or in different
shades of color. A dragon or griffin,
or heron worked in gold floselle is
very snowy, and very large mono gram
in scarlet or light blue is pretty. When
the embroidery is finished draw out the
threads Of canvas and press the lace,
and, if necessary, sponge it lightly On
the back with white mucilage to restore
the stitfening which may have come
out in working upon it, Edge with a
scallop buttonholed with silk the same
color as the center, or border it with q
darned net edge with the pattern run
in colored silk.
There are many kinds of daisy tides,
but the simplest are made by winding
for each daisy, some white wool over
three fingers--a little experimenting
will soon show how much to use. and
tying it tightly in the middle with linen
thread, cutting both ends and pulling
them out and Aattening them. A little
comhed out tuft of yellow worsted has
to be made and sewed on for the flower
center. The daisies are sewed upon
narrow tape in rows, and joined togeth-
er in q square, diamond, or circular
form. ~
