DR.. GRATTAN. A novel. by WILLIAM A.
HAMMOND, author OF "Lal." New York: d.
Appleton 90.
DR.. Hammond has already achieved a
marked reputation novelist, and his
latest work, "Dr. Grattan," adds further to his
standing In the ranks OF literature. As
purely American novelist, Hammond Is 1lllng
the gap left eince the death OF Hawthorne, and
whatever he writes is not only perfectly origi-
nal in Its conception, but graceful, and when
need be, powerful in its execution. The novel

Whether Mr.. Riddleborger objects to Mr..
McCulloch's opinions on the Virginia dobt

Senator vance's Letter BOOK.

10 ne Editor Of The Erening Critic.
II you know who stole Senator Vance's letter
book, or II you stole II yourself, for Heavens
sake send II TO him. That leIter-book has
become a national calamity. A statisticlan
estimates that that Internal letter-book has
cost the Government SO, 1850, counting four
hours as Senatorial day and 3i3h days as a
Senatorial year. The old man lugs that aw
ful letter book In on every possible occasion,
pertinent or impertlnent, proper or improper.
No matter what kind OF DEBATE is going on
tarln, currency, Nicaragua, Porto Rico, bald
headed bumble-bees, dudep, donkeys or devils
-Wrum, Wromonlsm or Wrebellion-the old
man lugs In that old letter book, and tho CON
sequence Is that the Senator'S have become as
fearful OF that fatal letterbook as an old
s0aker Is OF cold water. II the real, old, orig
inal can't be found, let us all chip in and buy

HEALTH AID ELIniAIE.

IS HEALTH AND CITRATE.
d, All health seekers, whether from Northern
or Southern States, should try the climate of
the Tabeland. The recent United States
Census shows it to be almost the only district
east Of the Rocky Mountains, entirely fl ee from
malarial, pulmonary and intestinal diseases.
The Plateau has double climate, one
resulting from latitude and the other from
elevation. The air is pure and invgoi atng.
The water is freestone cool and sparkling.
Mineral springs are numerous.
The mean summer temperature is " deg.
Fair, and in winter 81 deg. Fair. The
nights are always cool and refreshing.
t Ha.it.f) SOIL. ahtial931
The soil is sandy loan upon mulatto
clay subsoil. It'll light, friable, holds manure,
is easily cultivated and responds readily and
generously to the least fertilizer.
CROPS AND GRASSES.
Corn, wheat, rye, oats, and barley all grow
WE'LL though this is not claimed as a grain
growing soil. Tobacco is a profitable crop
here, as also is sorghum. Herd grass, orchard
grass, German and pearl millet timothy and
red clover have all been tried and take hold
and root wei. Kentucky blue grass also
thrives wherever introduced. The natura!
pasturage is abundant.
VEGETABLES
Grow abundantly. Cabbage onions, beans,
sweet and Irish potatoes all make fine return.
The Irish potatoes are unexcelled by any
grown in America. Sweet potatoes and onions
yield 500 bushels per acre. a'@%
! FRUIT And GRAPE CULTURE.
This region is especially adapted to fruit
and particularly to the winter apple and the
grape. The apple crop here has never been
known to fail. The trees are healthy, and the
fruit smooth, plump, juicy and firm. rarely
ever speaking or ro,ting. The grape is also 4
sure crop where proper varieties are planted
The vines are robust, and the grapes make
excellent wines, which are in good demand
These two fruits are destined to become thu
great and staple products of the Tableland.
/ Strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, cur,
rants, cherries, pluns, and nearly all the small
fruits thrive and bear politically.
IL i'a STOCK AND SHEEP RAISING. 3ata
If, The excellent natural pasturage, good drain
age, abundance of running water and freedom
from flies make these occupations eminentl
