the prohibition upon American hogs is
allowed TO stand in France. He thinks
that Congress will be forced to take per-
emptorv measures in order to remedy
the Injustice done to one of :he chief
products OF American export. He thinks
Congress unquestionsbly has power to
regulat" imports 10 spite Of trearies, es-
pecially where the initiative in discrim-

other words, he believes Congress has
the right to retslistq for the benefit OF

ASHBURNHAN, MASS,

al. IA, 1851.
1 have been very sick over two
years. They all gave me up as past
cure. | tried the most skillful ply
sicians, but they did not reach the
worst part. The lungs and heart
would fill up every night and dis
tress me, and my throat was very
bad. 1 told my children 1 never
should die in peace until 1 had tried
Hop Bitters. I have taken two
bottles. They have helped me very
much indeed. I am now well. There
6as lot of sick folks here who
have seen how they helped me, and
they used them and are cured, and
feel as thankful as 1 do that there
is so valuable medicine made.

Miss Mackay Fails to Sing.

Miss Mackay disappointed her
mothers society friends to-day in
Paris by failing to make her
heralded debut as soprano in the

crowded in anticipation of the event
by an ultra fashionable gathering,
who have been educated to expect a
great performance from the Ameri>

pear after mass was explained,
that the young lady was quite ill

Bishou Pierce.

The long, useful and honorable
career in the church of Bisher
Pierce was closed by his death al
his home in Sparta, Ca, on the
3rd inst.
Bishop Pierce was born at Greens
boro, Ga, in February, 1911. He
was a son of the celebrated Rev.
Lovick Pierce, D. D., who died q
few years since in Georgia. Bishop
Pierce graduated from the State
University at Oxford, Ga, at about
the age of eighteen. He studied
law and was about to engage in the
practice of that profession when he
was converted and Joined the Meth
odist Episcopal church and entered
the ministry where he soon gave
evidence of great popularity and
power as a preacher. He filed
many of the most important sta
tions in Georgia and in South Caro-
lima, being for years president of
the female college at Macon, Ga,
and afterwards president of Emory
College, in the same state.
For many years he labored as
presiding elder, and was one of the
most successful workers in the chris
tain ministry. In 1854 he was
elected and ordained bishop, in
which he continued to the day of
his death. In all respects he prov
ed one of the most eloquent and
impressive preachers that America
ever produced. In his middle life
he was remarkable for his fine per-
sonnel. His voice Was rich and
mellow and full of power. Bishop
Pierce had clear mind and vein
ofpoetry ran through his discourses,
He preached all over the western
portion of this continent, and es-
pecially in the western and south
ern states. He was a man of un-
Observation-Disclosures q pure christian
and was loved and honored by his
church perhaps as much as any
man that WAS ever connected with
Methodism.

Some out of the way data respect
ing the great canals of the world
are published. The imperial canal
of China is over 1000 miles long.
In the year 1851 was completed the
greatest undertaking of the kind on
the continent, the canal Of Langue-
doc, or the canal du Midi, to con
meet the Atlantic with the Mediter-
ranean; its length is las miles, it
has 100 locks, and about fifty
aqueducts, and its highest part it
is not less than 600 feet above the
sea; it is navigable for vessels of
upward of 100 tons. The largest
ship canal in Europe is the great
north Holland canal, completed in
1925, 125 feet wide at the water
surface, 81 feet wide at the botto m,
and has depth of 20 feet; it ex-
tends from Amsterdam to the Hell
der, 81 miles. The Caledonian ca
nal, in Scotland, has a total length
of 60 miles, including three lakes.
The Suez canal is so miles long, of
which &C miles are actual canal.
The Erie canal is 3504 miles long;
the Ohio canal from Cleveland to
Portsmouth, S32; the Miami and
Erie, Cincinnati to Toledo, 29I; the
Wabash and Erie, Evansville to the
Ohio line, 374.

One of the most curious incidents
in the history of African slavery in
America is the life of Charles Stew
art, slave owned by the Johnsons
of Virginia, and afterwards by the
Porters of louisiana, both of them
noted as possessors of remarkable
racing horses. He was born a
trainer and rider of horses, and dur
ing his long life time has ridden
the winning horse at many of the
great races down south. He could
not write, and knew nothing about
figures, but was nevertheless trust
cd by his owners with the care and
transportation Of their stock, and
the custody of bets and stakes, and
he seems always to come out right.
One of the ladies of the Porter fam
lily recently took down the story of
his, life as told by himself, and it will
be given in his own negro dialect, in
the October Harper's, with a por-
trait of the old negro hero of the
turf.

The Buffalo Express, a supporter
of Blaine, has this to say of Gov.
Cleveland: "There are few good

to take Gov. Cleveland by the hand
and congratulate him on his dis J.

well won,' we say, for what ever
others may have done in his behalf,
he has himself rendered honorable
and eminent public service, and has
deserved all that a man may deserve
of his party by doing with all his
might, and for the most part unset
fishly and with conscientious integ-
rity, the work to which he has been
called. The people of Buffalo have
known Mr.. Cleveland as one of
their Worthiest citizens, one of their
manifest men-faithful to his eli
ents, faithful to his friends, faithful
to every public trust. If he were
not a candidate for Office, his fellow
almost without excep-
tion, would not hesitate to say so of
him. But although he is-a candidate,
and a candidate whom ne shall
strive with all eur might tohonestly
defeat, truth and justice remaining
the same, why should the Express
hesitate to say it noWP

THE BRAVE AT HOME.
BIZ T. BUCHANAN READ.

The maid who binds her warriors sash,
With smile that we'll her pain dissembles,
The while beneath her dropping lash
One starry teardrop hangs and trembles.
Though Heaven alone records the tear,
And Fame shall never know her story,
Her heart has shed drop as dear
AS ever dewed the field of glory.
The wife who giTds her husbands sword,
Mid little ones who weep or wonder,
And bravely speaks the cheering word,
What though her heart be rent asun dor
Doomed nightly in her dreams to hear
The bolts of war around him rattle,
Has shed as sacred blood as e'er
Was poured upon the PLAN of battle
The mother who conceals her grief,
While to her breast her son she presses;
Then breathes q few brave words and brief,
Kissing the patriot brow she blesses,
With no one but her secret God
To know the pain that weighs upon her,
Shed holy blood rs e'er the sod
Received on freedoms field of honor!

A Genuine Freeze Out,

Another effect of the curious San
Francisco climate is of considerable
interest to strangers, as it makes
nine out of every ten sick the first
week they are here. The traveller
from New York, or even Canada,
coming here at this season does not
bring his furs and fannels. Before
getting to California he crosses
thousands of miles of plains and
deserts and is nearly baked. He
smiles if San Franciscan happens
to be along and talks of overcoats,
and, if the San Franciscan is small
er than he is, he feels like knocking
him down when he sits up and
watches him wipe the perspiration
off his brow and talk about cold
winds and hannels.
1t must be confessed that along
the Arizona or Utah desert, with
the thermometer boiling in the
shade, the easterner has a right to
feel angry with the San Franciscan's
talk, and even until Oakland, only
three miles from the city, is reached,
his incredulity seems justified; but
now it is different. Mark the change

Enterprising Cd Newspapers.

A person whose sensibilities have
not been deadened cannot but be
shocked upon the perusal of our
great dailies. These educators and
moulders of public opinion, whose
influence for good or evil is unlimit-
ed, seem to disregard the fact that
all men have not become depraved
and their tastes thoroughly vitiated
and that they thirst for sensational
and trashy news. They seem to
set a premium on crimes and SLAM
ders and if a murder is committed
every shocking and sickening de
tail must be graphically published.
No right with them is sacred, moth
ing too vulgar or obscene to fill their
columns and everything which will
satisfy the cravings of a morbid
public is seized upon with blazing
boldness, sent abroad to corrupt and
to damn. No man with any reason
will doubt the usefulness of these
papers to-day, the great good they
do, but we must say there should
be a change in the matter which
goes to fill their columns. Espe-
cially are they filed with such dis
gusting stuff during a campaign,
and though a candidates life has
been as pure as light and stainless
as star, yet his character is assail-
ed, the privacy of his home invaded
and he is made a villain. Journal
ism is progressing, but this branch
is assuming gigantic proportions
and should be frowned upon in
such an unmistakable way that no
paper can dare to defile its columns
with such stuff as now goes to "show
its enterprise in the collection of
news" Trenton Globe.

Wasn't a Boulevard.

An Austin darkey raised a large
crop Of watermelons, but the crop
is so large this he has had difficulty
in getting rid of them, the market
being overstocked. He felt like the
castaway on the desert island, for
she saw no sale from day to day."
He attributed the dullness of the
season to the fact that the superior
quality of the fruit was not suffi-
ciently advertised, so he procured a
long tin horn with which he startled
horses several blocks distant.
'Look here" said an exhausted
policeman, who had been almost run

cord of 1852, which mentions that
Edward ". had zone larum or
watch of iron, thescase being like

of lead" The first watch may real
ly be supposed to be of rude execu-
tion. The first great Improvement
was in 1860. The earliest springs
were not coiled, but only straight
pieces ofsteel. Early watches had
only one hand and being wound up
twice day, they could not be ex-
pected to keep the time of day ex-
actly. The dials were of silver and
of brass; the cases had no crystals,
but opened at the back and front
and were four or five inches in di-
ameter. A plain watch cost more

ed it took a year to make it.-Pitts

L. B. c. asks: Will you be kind
enough to tell me a cheap and
harmless but eff1ciert remedy for
the falling off of the hair, and also
an article to promote healthy and
abundant growth2 A. The falling
out of the hair may be due to some
causes, and therefore no specific
remedy can be recommended. Read
The Hair, its Use and its Care, by
DR.. j. V. Shoemaker, in Scientific
American supplement, No. 38S.
Morfitt recommends the following:
Scald black tea 2 ounces, with 1
gallon of boiling water; strain, and
add 8 ounces of glycerine; tiacture
cantharides ounce; and bay rum
one quart. Mix well by shSking,
and then perfume. An excess of al
um is also recommended. The
growth of the hair is dependent
largely upon the:healthfulness of the
individual, and hence no preparation
can be counted as sure for this pur-
pose, although there are many for
mulas such as the foregoing in exist
ence purporting to accomplish their
obiect.-Scientific American.

Notwithstanding the old preju-
dices in regard to the matter, there
is nothing to show that planting
when the moou is fulling or waning,
or at any portion of the signs Of
the zodiac, has anything to do with
the growth of plants, any more than
that certain stars have any effect on
the destinies of those born 5hereun-
der. Numerous experiments in the
planting of quick growing plants, at
regular and short intervals, have
shown their growth not at all de
pendent on the stage of the moon at
the time of planting.--Scientific
