Meant Shoot.

On the way down from Nachez to
New Orleans the boat rounded to at a
landing on the Louisiana shore to take
on lot of cotton seed. She bad Just
made fast and the mate had stepped
ashore to 'hustle them Chinese" when
a middle. aged man, closely resembling
the typical Southerner, suddenly stepped
out from bebind the sacks, presented a
revolver within foot of the mates face,
and cried out:
Throw up Jour hands or you are a
dead manr'
Theirs were fifty of us with our eyes
on the two men, AMI we held our breath
as the mate slowly raised MS arms above
his head. He didn't change color in
the slightest, and those who took in the
details noticed that he chewed away at
his plug tobacco with the same regu-
lar motion-neither faster nor slower.
Nov, then, down on your knees and
beg my pardon, or III send bullet INTO
your eyer'
The mates legs wobbIed-bent-and
down he sank snd remarked that he was
sorry if he had offended the other.
'tAll rIghtl' growled the man with
the pistol. as he showed 1t into his hip
pocket. ''After this you be little more
careful whom you fling your impudence
atp'
As he turned away the mate made
dive with his right hand and up came
Derringer, out shot the arm, and IN
voice OF thunder the man cried.
Haiti Throw up your arms! Down
on your knees, or I'll blow your brains
all over this plantationl'
The tables were turned. Up went
the arms, and after a few seconds the
man went down on his knees and said
he had the highest respect for the mates
moral worth. When he rose up the
Captain aud others had reached the pair,
and in ten seconds more they were dis
armed.
"Ulose call thatl" said one of the
passengers as the Captain handed the
weapons TO the clerk to keep until the
boat was ready to leave.
"Humphi Neither one of 'em load
edl" replied the old man.
Such was the actual fact. Two empty
and harmless weapons had humbled two
men who meant shoot.

For this time 1t has been Impossible 10
obtain any trace OF the seal. Ihe last
date of its use so for discovered WAS
1898.
In the interval OF ninety years 1t has
done no work, and until few weeks
ago, when the silver dies OF the seal
were discovered among some old rec
ords In the State Treasurer ofnce at
Annapolis. it also was supposed to have
been Irrecoverably lost. A short time
since a request was made OF the State
Treasurer to allow the old papers In the
treasury vault to be overhauled, and
thus the silver dies of the old seal OF
1868 were found. They were sent to
the Commissioner of the land office, IN
whose custody they now are. They are
thus described in a letter from Annapo-
lis: ''Then faces are sharp, plain ana
beautiful. Their coat OF arms remains
uniDinred by time. and though their
well-worn faces may have been re-
touched. yet they are the true seals OF
1868, carrying the same armorial bear
ings, the pride of its lord and keeper.
1t is the most complicated and beautiful
seal known in ancient or modern times
1t brings forth its achievements OF honor
from the days of st. Maurice and The
ban Legion, eclipsing all the royal or
baronial seals of England, for the pic
tre of the ancient king on his throne,
the crown and scepter, the drawn sword,
the lion and unicorn-all fall short, IN
deed, of the classic ensigns OF the
barons OF Baltimore.

AGRICULTURE.

SHoRTBo RNs.-Putting on one side
all the advantages which have accrued
to the breeders of shorthorn cattle. by
what in America is cailed the ''boom, v
which has helped the breeding along.
there is still the fact that when farmers
want to rear their stock by hand, and
make part of the return in dairy produce
there has not yet been found the equal
of the shorthorn for that purpose.
Several breeds, under different circum-
stances, could be made into better beef,
but they wont give milk at the same
time; and several breeds under similar
circumstances, would give more milk but
they can't be made into good beef, and
are consequently useless to feed out
when barren or to rear as steers. The
shorthorn can be reared out of the pail,
bred or arabic land, will give fair
amount of good milk, and can be fed
easily in stall during winter into sala-
bic condition.
