The other night, when one of our
prominent young society men called to
see his girl, he found her mother sitting
quietly before the fire. After bidding
him good evening"" she looked him
full in the face, aud said:
"Do you really love my daughter
Emma
"Well-ah-my dear madam, STAN
mered the youth, turning red in the
face, Il have only been coming TO see
your daughter two months, and ! really
think you are little premature in
propounding such a question. "
That's where we differ, young man.
If the seed Of your sowing now will
bring forth a matrimonial harvest, I'm
willing to put up with you a while
longer, but if you are coming here
three nights out of the week, just to
pass away the time, you had better
cease coming here at once. F."
eyes. Well, really madam, put in
the youth, his voice all in quiver,
''since you press mo 80 closely for an
answer, must admit that | am very
fond Of Emma, aud that | live for her
alone
"Yes, broke in the anxious mamma,
that's the trouble with you young
men; you waste too much time living
for girl alone, when you ought to be
living with her. TN a plain, old-fash-
ioned woman, and always say what |
think. Now I'm willing to give you a
month longer, as a trial, but if at the
end of that time | don't see a spankin'
fine new ring on Emma's finger, your
visits to this house will be cut of. 8"
And then. TO the great relief of the
young man, she left the room and sent
in her daughter. who. of course, was
utterly unconscious OF the "good licks'
her mother had put in for her.

On Saving and Raising Seed.

In paper from the pen of Mr..
Saunders, of the Agricultural Depart
ment, he remarks:
"Whether it is best for farmers and
gardeners to save their own seed or
make yearly purchases, depends very
much on circumstances, or rather up
on the particular kinds of seeds in
question and the manner of saving
them. Seed raising is business
which requires skill in culture, and
great discriminating knowledge,
which can only be acquired by obser-
walton and practice. 1t is one of the
great arts of seed raising to keep va
rietes true to their descriptive pecu-
liarities." AS an example he speci
fies the cabbage; and remarks that it
is now held that cabbage seed raised
inland varieties must always be
grown very widely apart for seed, for
so far as seed can fly there is danger
in crossing with other and inferior
kinds. "Climate," he says, "has also

Cincinnati After the Riot.


CINCINNATI, April 5.-The COM
mittee Oft fifty appointed by the Music
hall meeting to recommend changes
in the statutes, is holding meetings
daily. Hon. V. S. Grosebeck has
been elected chairman. He stated
the object of the committee to be to
devise measures for amending the
criminal law, and to do whatever
could be done without unnecessary
delay to bring about the more speedy
administration of justice. He sug-
gested amendment of the law for the
selection Of petit juries in criminal
cases, so that exemptions should not
be easily obtained as now by holding
a nominal membership in a military
company. He also suggested changes
in regard to peremptory challenges.
A subcommittee appointed to for
mulate these and other suggestions
is at work.
An open letter to Judge Matthews,
who tried Berner, is published, in
which T. S. Campbell, the leading
lawyer for Berner's defense, asks for
an Investigation by Judge Matthews.
He makes the demand on the ground
that newspapers have charged that
the jury was cOrruptly influenced,
and that he had said for S. 600 he
would secure a favorable verdict. He
says he never made such statement
and in no way did anything but fair
ly defend his client.
The First regiment of Cincinnati
talks of disbanding. In a number of
instances members have been dis
charged because WOrkmen threatened
to leave if the militiamen were per-
mitted to come back to work.
Gov. HOadIy, in his letter of thanks
to Sheriff Hawkins, expressed APP
proyal of his course of conduct, but
made the remark that it was perhaps
not proper to express an opinion in
advance of the Investigation which
must be made.
The first sentencing of prisoners
since the riot took place yesterday in
Judge Johnson's court. Belle Os-
borne, colored, convicted of shooting
with intent to kill, received seven
years. She begged most piteously
when the sentence was pronounced,
and the judge began to say, GAS this
is woman [ will modify the sem
tence-," when the prosecutor inter-
posed a vigorous protest, saying, this
woman has been before the criminal
courts again and again, and some
thing must be done to relieve the
courts if for no other purpose" The
judge permitted the sentence to re-
main.

Kanawha river, there is an immense
body of timber lands which are ira
versed by the rivers Pocatalico. Elk,
Gauly, and Greenbier, all of which
are said to be good logging streams.
In the head waters of the Gauly river
and its main tributaries. the Will
liams, Cranberry and Cherry rivers,
there is said to be an exceedingly fine
body of cherry timber. The walnut
is also sail to be very fine, as well as
the white oak, maple, ash and black
spruce. A large part of the territory
between the Baltimore and Ohio and
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroads,
about one hundred miles wide and
running the whole length of the state,
is almost virgin forest, and the same
is true of that part of the state lying
south of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad, and of the Kanawha. This
district is also about one hundred
miles wide, and extends through the
state, from east to west, and is fairly
we'll supplied with streams, which
empty into the Kanawha or New
river, which is tapped by the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad. There are
several new mills to be erected in
this district this spring, and there
have been several good CONTRACTS
taken for next summers delivery OF
oak, ash, poplar, walnut and cherry
at good prices.
There is a very large area Of white
oak, yellow poplar, walnut, ash, ETC.,
in Southeastern Kentucky and West
ern North Carolina. In this latter
district, also, there are extensive for
ests of white pine, and in the eastern
part of that state is the Celebrated
long leaf pine. There is yet remain
ing in North Carolina about 10000
square miles Of valuable forests. Oh
the siXty-two varieties Of timber
found east of the Rocky Mountains
North CrroIina has in great abund
ance fifty-four varieties of the mos
valuable. This large area of timber
in North Carolina, and the timber
lands of southwest Virginia, eastern
Kentucky and east Tennessee will
probably for years furnish profitable
transportation to railways running
southwark from the Ohio river, ano
their development will undoubtedly
bring great wealth to those states
The hard wood forests Of Ohio anC
Indiana have been almost entirely
cleared off, and the supply must nov
come from the Southern states. The
pine of the Northwest is going rapid
ly also, and its place in time will
haye to be supplied with the cheaDe
classes OF hard woods and the cypres
and yellow pine of the states farthe
south. In view of these facts, Gin
cinnati and Louisville are already re
garding themselves as the futur

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER,

From our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. D. c., April s, 1884,
Whatever doubt there may be
about the proposition that the House
would never pay the homage to ex-
President Hayes that it did to ex-
President Grant on last Wednesday,
it is pretty certain that no movement
of that kind would originate with
Sam Randall, upon whose motion
the House on that day took a recess
Of fifteen minutes to shake the hand
of the hero of Appomatox. The
General appeared on the floor with
his crutches, taking position IN the
circle fronting the Speakers chair,
the Members filing by, exactly as
they do under call for tellers. where
he not only shook each Members
hand but accompanied the shake
with some appropriate word of well
come or old-time friendship. OF
course those who see mercenary mo-
tiyes in the every movement of
public man, pounced upon the report
that the Generals presence was a put
up arrangement to get on the retired
list, and surely they made the most
of it so far as spreading the rumor
was concerned, While the General
has never manifested that innate
modesty that prompts one to refuse
presents, it cannot be charged up
against him that he has directly or
even indirectly sought any of the off.
cial honors that have been conferred
on him, and this fling just at this
time, when nothing has been said
about his third term candidacy, is
peculiarly cruel, uncalled for, and
baseless.
Some fellow, evidently of waggish
propensities, has been getting up a
sCrt of anti.Morrison bill circu-
lar, in which he pledges the Demo-
cratic majority as opposed to any tar
if bill that does not reduce the bur-
dens upon the people by the abridg-
ment of both customs and internal
revenue taxation. The circular also
calls for ''such an adjustment of the
tariff as to encourage protective in
dustries at home, and afford just com.
pensation to labor, but not to create
or foster monopolies." The appear
ance of this circular, which is printed,
has had the effect of showing that the
wag aforesaid builded better than he
knew, for it has already caused so
much commotion among the Morri-
son followers that another caucus, in
tended to produce definite results, is
to be called at once, and at which

I'd to show his hand, or that all shall

N0WSDaDor Reporters.

We see that the House ofDelegates,
Notwithstanding the unmistakable
sentiment against it, has again perpe.
trated the gross wrong ofYoting gratu-
tiles to newspaper correspondents. 1t
shows a shameless disregard of the
sanctity that should gather round
public money; the members voting
this money out Of the treasury would
have had just as good a right to
vote it to some travelling menagerie.
The reporters were not in the en-
ployment of the House; they were
employed and paid by certain news
papers, and if it is at ali justifable to
pay these. employees Of certain news
papers, why not extend the gratuity
and pay the newspapers for publish
ing what is thus written for them d?
The whole thing is a great wrong
and a scandalOus misuse Of the pub
lie money. We trust that the comp
troller will resist its payment to the
bitter end, The gratuitants are not
entitled to receive it; the lower house
has no right to appropriate public
money by its own order. AT the ses-
sion of 1882 the reformatory senti-
ment made specific appropriations to
the deterrent branches of the public
service, so that there was no appro-
priation for any of these outside mat
tiers, such as reporters or extra COM
pensation. Before that session the
money was voted IN bulk for legisa-
tive purposes, and it was held by
Judge Miller, we believe, that under
such an appropriation it was in the
nature of contingent fund for both
houses, and that each house could up
on its separate order draw upon it.
This special appropriation to specific
objects was to meet this phrase of the
case, so that nothing could be left in
the treasury except for specific pur-
poses, and nothing being appropriate
ed for such objects as reporters, extra
pay or allowances of any kind there
could be no payment made by the
comptroller. But at the same time
Judge Miller decided against these
very appropriations made to report
ers at that session, and upon The
ground that they were not officers Of
of the House, and that because of ii
no separate order of either house
could operate upon the general fund. !

much to do with seed saving. WheD
seeds are grown in climate insult
ed to their maturity, they will per-
petrate weak progeny. For exam
pie, the oat plant requires cool,
moist climate for perfect develop.
hence seeds grown in a warm, dry
climate are inferior. 1t is the best
economy to procure seeds from the
best localities, for no effort towards
accimation ;?ill prove of any value"
He added that the most common mis-
takes in sowing are those of covering
seeds too deeply with soil, and negli-
gence is firming the surface after the
seeds are sown; rolling the surface af-
ter seeding is one of the most impor-
tant points in seeding.

1t could be only by an appropriation
made by both houses for the specific
pupOse.
We know of no general fund made
for either house, and subject to the
separate order Of either, unless done
this session. At all events, if there
should be such a general fund voted
at this session, still under the ruling
of Judge Miller upon a similar APP
preparation made to newspaper cor
respondents two years ago, there
could be no payment made out of it
by the separate order of the House,
upon the ground that these persons
were not officers of the House, and as
the fund was appropriated for legisla-
tive expenses it must be confined to
such expenses literally and to moth
ing beyond. Therefore it is upon the
comptroller TO resist the payment OF
this order, and all such like orders
for moneys not specifically appropria-
ted for or having any relation to the
real business of either house.
These abuses and wrongs will be
no longer tolerated, and the senti.
ment that is intent upon having re.
formation and economy will demon.
strate its power in time. 1t takes
time to do this thing, and especially
to root out or correct abuses, but the
time will come when the thing will
be done.-HdgerStOlC71 Mail.

timber supply being exhausted, but,
we think, without sufficient cause,
The investigations which have been
made of late of the hard wood timber

these interests are being developed
rapidly. The Boston Commercial
Bulletin claims that the Southern
hard wood district embraces thestates
of North Carolina, West Virginia,

About one-half of the latter state is
said to be covered with forests of val
liable timber. Within the last eigh-

WASHINGTON, April 6.-The re-
cent ovation to General Grant in the
House of Representatives continues
to be the subject Of comment in
Washington, and has given strength
to the idea that Grant may yet be
the nominee of the Chicago Republic
can Convention. The abundant pop
ularity of Grant was illustrated in a
remarkable manner on the occasion
referred to, and left no doubt that he
has lost nothing Of his hold upon the
hearts of the people. Grant, as the
Of the Republicans, is no
longer looked upon as an improbable
event. A leading Congressman from
Illinois said to-day that the feeling
for Grant had shown growth within
the last two weeks. The Represen-
tative showed a number of letters he
had received from his constituents,
all suggested that Grant would be
the strongest man that could be NOM
mated. Reports ola very recent date
from the South show rapidly grow
ing demand in that section for the
nomination Of Grant, the eX-PreSi-
dents popularity among the colored
people berg far above that of any
other man that could be named. Rep.
resentative Kellogg declared that the
Republicans could sweep Louisiana
with Grant as their candidate in spite
of any bull-dozing tricks the Demo-
Gratis may resort to.
A number of leading politicians
who have been asked about it have
said that, while Grant is not a candi-
date. yet if there should be a Wrangle
at Chicago among rival claimants, it
was not unlikely that he would be
selected as the compromise nominee.
1t is even stated that Senator Logan
has expressed a readiness to give way
to Grant at any time and turn oyer
to him all his available strength. In
fact. there are those who believe that
the Logan boom is really in the in
terest of Grant, "Black Jack" being
simply put forward as the leader of
the Grant campaign.
General Grants prolonged stay in
Washing at this time is also pointed
to as a most significant circumstance,
and is thought by MANY to be proof
that he is being coached by his friends
as a Presidential candidate. Grants
movements here have certainly Civ
en- color to the idea that, for some
reason, he is making an unusual eff
fort for popularity among influential
Republicans. He has been notice
ably courteous to all the leaders
whose influence may be valuable at
Chicago, When New York paper
published a declaration purpOrting TO
come from him that he would not
consent to dine with Mr. Blaine he
quickly disayowed such statement.
1t was quite apparent that he did not
wish to antagonize Mr.. Blaine. If it
is true that Grant has actually enter.
ed the race it is not improbable that
the ovation rendered him on the oc-
casion of his visit to the House was a
part of the plan to give impetus to
the wave of his popularity.
Intimate friends of General Grant
are well aware that it is an absorbing
ambition with him to achieve dis
tinction never before enjoyed by an
American-that of Deing.thrice elect
ed to the Presidency. That would
finish up the measure Of his fame and
crown him with an honor not even
conferred upon Washington.
