FARM, GARDEN AND HOME.
The Old Home.


- Return, return" the voices cried
Ito your old valley, far away;
For softly on the river tide
The tender lights and shadows play:
And all the banks are gay with flowers,
And all the hills are sweet with thyme:
Ye cannot find such bloom as ours
In yon bright foreign climeP
For me- thought the olives grow,
The sun lies warm upon the vines;
And yet | viii arise and go
70 that dear valley dim with pinesi
Old loves are dwelling there, ! said,
Untouched by years OF change and pain;
Old faiths that / had counted dead,
Shall rise and live again.
And still Return, return, they sung,
With us abides eternal calm;
In these old fields, where you We're young,
We Gull the heart's-e and the balm,
For us the tocks and herds increase,
And children plaS around our feet
Al eve the sun goes down in peace
Return, for rest is sweet"
Then arose, and crossed the sea,
And sought that home of younger DAYS;
No love OF old was left to me
(For love has wings, and seldom stays);
But there were graves upon the hill,
And sunbeams shining on the sod,
And low winds breathing, g Peace be still;
Lost things are found in God"
Good Words

A Useful Eel.


From the Utica Observer.
The new barge Dakota, which ar
rived at Ogdensburg last week, laden
with coal from Gswego, was found on
the trip down to be leaking, so much
so that thepumps had to be kept con
stantly going to keep her clear. Sud
denly, however, the leak stopped, and
she arrived seemingly tight at the
Burg. After discharging her coal the
capt ain had her hauled out at the
ship-yard, when he found an inch and
a half augur hole in her bilge in which
was tightly damned a large eel, which
at once accounted for the sudden
stoppage Of the leak.

Live Fence Posts.

of mine carried out practically in three

Ruilding too Near the Road.

Prof. l.. H. Bailey, discussing the
mistakes in rural establishment,
wisely remarks: There is too much OF
a disposition to ''save land" for corn
and potatoes. This economy is often
short-sighted. 1t is like storing the
cob and throwing away the corn. A
farmhouse cannot present a good APP
pearance unless it stands four or five
rods or more back from the road.
Such situation is also a matter OF
convenience in escaping dust, noise,
and publicity.

tended to further Drexel's chances for the gov
ernorship, so Graces action was regarded as
bid for popularity. Grace did not consult with
single other city official, far as can be learned,
before telegraphing to Col. Fred Grant that
Central Park was at the familys disposal. The
aldermen, all very small fellows hastily ratified
his doing, but the Park Commissioners, though
they at length passed the requisite resolution
did not hesitate from the outset to condemn the
idea. Three days had not elapsed, however, be-
fore the knowledge poured in upon the mayor
from all directions that he had made serious
mistake, and he became as anxious to keep the
grave out of Central Park as he had been to dig
it there. He was particularly scared by his own
proposition that the Mall should be taken That
is the most elaborately embeliished part of the
great park, the place where the open air concerts
are given, and the center of the pleasurable
commotion of all sorts. A restaurant oyerlooks
it, boat landing is adjacent, and the intro
duction of death in the midst of so much
blithesome life would be sadly incongruous.
The task of undoing the mischief was bravely
undertaken by Grace chiefly assisted by Park
Commissioner Crimmins; and they performed it
while visiting the park with Fred Grant. The
Grant family had already decided to accept the
tender of Central Park ste and were almost
equally agreed upon the Mall The argument
made to Fred against that spot by Grace was
that, whenever the relatives visited the tomb,
their grief would surely be Jared by the sur
rounding scenes of gayety. Gradually he was
led to favor the portion of Riverside Park finally
designated. AS this new park not yet opened
to the public the stream of complaining letters
has considerably dried up, but there is still big
volume of sentiment against making cemetery
of any city park. 1t may be said that under
the circumstances. the proposition to substitute
Washington for New York has no real opposi-
ton here

Ask no Extension of the Bonded Period.

New YORK, Aug 1.-The Times this morning
Chase, a prominent whisky man of Louisville:
There will be no further effort" Mr. Chase
said, 'to obtain an extension of the bonded
period from the government, for large percent
age of dealers and distillers satisfied with the
present laws, and are thoroughly convinced that
to ask Congress for relief will result only in de-
pressing trade and making the market lower and
feverish Then, too if the bonded period should
be extended distilers would be put to
heavy expense in order to erect the required
warehouses to hold bonded goods. / think all
distillers are growing satisfied with the three
years now allowed them by the revenue depart
ment, for in that length of time we find that
whisky natures sufficiently to be mar
ketable | sincerely hope the extension cranks
amchg US may not again int1ict Congress with
our woes" Mr. Chase stated that S., 600, 900
would cover all the failures in the trade and the
Newcomb Buchanan concern was responsible for
twc-th;rds of this amount The past two
years Depression" he continued has proved
the soidity of the liquor trade in general,
for very few failures have taken place, although
the losses have been heavy. The demand for
consumption, coupled with the large amount of
whisky exported, has decreased very greatly the
overproduction of 1882, and at present the
amount in this country is not as large rs held in
many previous years Throughout the country
operatives in all lines of business who consume
whisky are more or less idle from the closing of
mills and other suspensions of business, SO that
they have not money to buy liquor. The whisky
business will not revive until there is general
change for the better"
The Kentucky distillers believe the worst is
over, and say they see signs of higher prices at
an early date.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-President Chauncey NJ.
Depew, OF the Vanderbilt railroads, sat in a
couch-like stuffed chair, at big and gorgeous
desk, in the company's general offices, when a
card was handed in to him. The name was at
once recognized as that of fashionable and
wealthy widow of his acquaintance, s1d figure
in the circles of society in which the Handerbits
move She was promptly ushered in, and De-
pew received her in smiling affability. II have
called on business errand,' she said II am
rich woman, as you know, yet 1 am too poor to
spend the summer in Newport, as usual. My
fortune is invested altogether in Hudson River
and New York Central stock. The dividends
used to be sufficient to support me and my
daughters luxuriously anywhere we chose Your
internal railroad war has altered all of that.
With dividends meagre for some time past, and
possibly none at all in the future, we are as poor
as though we hadn't thousand dollars Of wealth.
Now, we've concluded to spend August econom-
icaly away up in the Green mountains of Yer
mont; and | want you to give me free passes for
five persons in order to get there and back with
out walking" Depew says he wrote the passes
without hesitation.

BALTlMoRE, Aug lit is stated the Western
Union Telegraph Company obtained
temporary injunction in Harrisburg, Pa,
to-day, restraining the Baltimore &

ing that city. An officer of the Bal
timore & Ohio company says that at the regular
meeting of the City Council, held last
Monday night, resolution was pass
ed by the common branch, grant
ing the Baltimore & Ohio the privilege
of entering the city. The select branch was
induced to refer the resolution to tie regular
committee with the hope that such ac-
ton would insure its defeat before the
next regular meeting Representatives
of the Baltimore e Ohio, however,
succeeded in securing the favor of majority
and an extra meeting was called for Thursday
night at which the resolution was passed. The

strain the City Council from acting in the mat
ter, but were unsuccessful. The matter comes

Mayor Grace's Hand in the Selection, and
His Object.
Special to the lndianapolis Journal.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-The site finally chosen
for the tomb of Grant is compromise between
that public sentiment which wished to bury the
General right in the middle of the city's Central
Park play ground and that which resented the
appropriation of any bit of such property to
mortuary purposes. Scarcely an indication of
the feeling on the subject has been given in the
New York newspapers, whose mails were for
days weighted with protests The blunder be-
longed entirely to Mayor Grace. He is a candi
date for his partys next nomination for Governor
of the State and close watcher for opportuni
ties to make political capital. Just as Joseph
W. Drexel's quick offer of his Mt McGregor
cottage, in which Grant died, for national
museum of Grant relics, was construed as in

No Indications of Decay Apparent-An Effort

Mt MCGREGcR, August 1.-The ieaden hue
about General Grants face yesterday was owing
largely, the undertakers say, to the unfavorable
light and shadows of the room in which the body
lay. Late last night, when the casket was
opened, the body gave forth to the senses no
evidence of other than favorable conditions.
Preparations are being used to remove the heavy
dark circles from beneath the eyes. The re-
mains have been examined within twelve hours,
and the extremities and limbs were found to
be fully under the control of the embalming
preparations. Undertaken Merritt believes the
body will be preserved in most excellent condi-
tion until long after the final leave shall have
been taken of it.

Hancock's Trouble with the Cranks.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-The mails of General
Hancock are composed to an astonishing extent
of letters from men and women who desire to
figure in the Grant funeral ceremonies Many
of these applicants are cranks, whose PROPOSE
tions are merely absurd; but hundreds of others
are based on perfectly rational wish to gain
valuable conspicuousness. Poets send copies of
verses which they would like to have said or
sung; preachers present their claims upon the
Office of orator. and the ex-soldiers and poll
ticians ready to speak on the occasion are
legion; but the chief solicitors of positions in the
services are actors and professional vocalists,
among whom are some of the foremost in the
land The actors wish to read, and the vocalists
to sing II cannot give the names of these vol
unteers" says Hancock's secretary, "but if did
they would surprise you"
