THE NATIONS HERO SLEEPS.

General Grant is dead
Such was the sad tiding announced yester-
day morning TO the listening ear of the world.
For days the Orient as well as the Occident
has been apprised that the hilt of life was
Slipping from his grasp. He had, in person,
made circuit of the globe, about which his
fame had preceded him. The nations con-
-ceded him commander of mightier hosts
than any military chieftain since history
was begun. Princess and pOtentates the
world around have recognized and honored
him as one of the most illustrious OF earth.
And so the requiem flashed beyond the seas
will be received with inspirations of respect
for his memory by all the great nations of
the earth.
General Grant is dead.
The announcement will cause our National
penant wherever it flies to drop to half mast,
in emblem of the bowed head of our sorrow
ing country. Mother Columbia, ''like Niobe
in tears" will lament the death of the gal
liant son who, when she was assailed by foes
within her domain, drew his sword, and as
cending from rank to rank, at length directed
the armies that subdued her assailants and
compelled their return to allegiance to her
sway. She wills it that garlands of language
should be twined about his name, COM
memorative of his exploits for her preserva-
tion.
General Grant is dead
A million young children in the United
States, hearing this said, will ask to be told,
who was General Grant? Fathers and moth
ers, of whatever political creed, in whatever
part of the Union, will answer in terms
teaching the little ones to honor the name of
the great soldier. Many of the fathers will
respond with husky voices and fearful eyes.
They will tell of having themselves been sol
diers under his command, and how their
hearts have swelled with pride when guided
by him from victory to victory, until the
armies of the enemy had to lay down their
arms; until the Union was declared saved
and peace restored to the land.
General Grant is dead.
How to the Union veterans of the war
come with the announcement recollections
OF the march, the camp, the field, the fight.
Il h.
the Potomac, when thought was with loved
ones at home, and desire so strong that the
war should end-they see again the almost
impregnable trenches and fortresses OF the
foe and hear the murderous sounds of can
nonadIng from them. But they hear above
this the determined words of the com
mander: 81 will fight it out on this line if
it takes all summer" And they remember
how the fight went on under his guidance
until peace had been conquered and they
heard from him: ''Soldiers of the armies OF
the United states-By your patriotic devo-
tion to your country in the hour of danger
ard alarm. your magnificent fighting,
bravery and endurance. you have maintained
4he supremacy of the Union and the Consti-
tuition and opened the way to the
rightful authorities to restore order and in
augurate peace, on a permanent and endur-
ing basis. on every foot OF American SOIL

diery of Lee and their sympathizers have ever
cherished a sentiment of good will for Gen
eral Grant for his courtesy and magnanimity
to their chief of the Southern armies when
the latter stood before him to make surren-

who, though an uncompromising foeman

Freaks of Watches.

Watches are queer things. They
possess some unaccountable peculiari-
ties. For instance, some time about
the beginning of last summer, when
there had been a succession of fine
displays Of the aurora borealis, it was
estimated that in single night in
the city of London the mainsprings
of not less than 5000 watches broke.
This estimate is based on actual in
quires. Fine, sensitive watches are
particularly liable to be effected by
the electrical atmospheric distur-
Dances. During the months of June,
July, and August, when these phe-
nomena are most frequent, there are
more mainsprings broken than du-
ring all the remaining months of the
year. They break in variety of
ways, sometimes swapping into as
many as tWenty-seven pieces. 1t isa
fact that since the introduction of the
electric light has become general a
large number of watches, some of
them very fine ones, have become
magnetised. While in this condition
they are useless as timekeepers. This
defect used to be incurable, and be-
cause of it thousand of watches have
been thrown away aftermuch money
had been spent on them in vain at
tempts to persuade them to keep
good time. Among the methods re-
sorted to were washing the parts in
garlic juice, refnishing, and passing
them through the fire. But all these
devices were perfect failures, or only
in part effective. The writer knows
of a man who had fine and valua-
bic movement which kept excellent
time. He transferred it from a sill
yer case to a secondhand gold one.
Immediately it lost all its characters
tics Of steadiness and reliability, and
in fact did not keep time at
all. When placed in the silver case
it kept good time again. The owner,
a jeweler, puzzled himself and eX-
perimented in vain to discover the
cause of this strange partiality on the
part Ofhis watch for silver. At length
he sent it to an expert. He discov,
cred that the lifting spring Of the
gold case had been magnetised. On
substituting another for it, the watch
kept as good time in the gold case as
in the silver case.

Mr.. Geo. P. Lord, of Elgin, Ills, keeps 100
COWS on 800 acres Of land and has not used
hay for several years. He thinks fodder
corn is much the cheapest and best, when
the fodder is made properly and well Sc
cured, so that each handful has a rich
green color Mr.. Hoard, in his Dairy
man, says he has seen a yield of ten
tons of cured fodder to the acre. This is a
wonderful yield, and we always found it, to
our taste, as good as timothy hay for feeding
cows, pound for pound 1t has also been
quite satisfactorily explained that sweet or
sugar corn does not make as good, economi-
cal, or even as sweet fodder, as the old horse
tooth variety of southern origin, and who
ever saw more than three tons of good tim
othy hay growing to the acre' We never
had as good success in planting late as early.
Corn is semi-tropical plant, and wants
plenty of time, in this climate, to catch
full summers length of sun to come to its
best quality, and lay up all the sugar and
starch that it can accumulate.

from Catarrh. Several physicians
and various patent medicines were
resorted to, yet the disease continued
undated, nothing appearingtO make
any impression upon it. Her cOnsti-
tuition finally became implicated, the
poison being in her blood.
l secured a bottle of b. B. B. and
placed her upon its use, and to our
surprise the improvement began at
once, and her recovery was rapid and
complete. No Otherpreparation ever

Blaine on the Death of Garfield.

Masterful in his mortal weakness,
he became the center of a nations
love, enshrined in the prayers of a
world. But all the love and all the
sympathy could not share with him
his suffering. He trOd the wine
press alone. With unfaltering front
he faced death. With unfailing ten
derness he took leave of life. Above
the demoniac hiss of the assassin's
bullet he heard the voice of God.
With simple resignation he bowed to
the divine decree. AS the end drew
near his early craving for the sea re-
turned. The stately mansion of pow
er has been to him the wearisOme
hospital of pain, and he begged to be
taken from its prison walls, from its
oppressive, sitting air, from its home
lessness and hopelessness. Gently,
silently, the love Of a great people
bore the pale sufferer to the lOnged-
for healing Of the sea, to live or die,
as God should will, within sight of
its heaving pillows, within sound OF
its manifold voices. With wan, fe-
vered face tenderly lifted to the cool
ing breeze, he looked out wistfully
upon the oceans changing wonders
on its far sails, whitening in the
morning light; on its restless waters,
rolling shOreward to break and die
beneath the MONDAY sun ; on thered
clouds of evening, arching low to the
horizon on the serene and shining
pathway of the stars. Let us think
that his dying eyes read a mystic
meaning which only the rapt and
parting soul may know. Let us be-
lieve that in the silence of the reced-
ing world he heard the great waves
breaking on a further shore, and felt
already upon his wasted brow the
breath Of the eternal morning.
