AGRICULTURAL.
Sow Millet,

Our farmer friends should keep tLis matter in mind, and set apart a place somewhere upon the farm, for an acre or two for the growing Of this important crop. It may Dc upon some piece of low land, which has been oveihowed during the present season, which is yet too wet to plant in cotton or corn but that will answer for millet, which can be sown within the next thirty days. Or it is possible where all of the other conditions are fav- orable, such as a moist soil which is reasonably fertile, to have 1t succeed the present crop of oats. In any event,it is crop,too impor- tant and necessary to be overlooked by any farmer. It makes most ex cellent substitute for hay, which with the abundent yield of seed renders it of almost inestimable value to the farmer Rural and
 Workman.

Some Famous Old Miids.

Look at the list. Elizabeth of England was one of the most illus trious of modern sovereigns. Her rule over Great Britain certainty comprised the most brilliant htera- ry age of the Engllsh-speaking peo- pie. Her political acumen was certainly put to as severe tests as that of any other ruler the world ever saw. Maria Edgeworth was an old maid. It was this wOman's writings that first suggested the though. Of writing similarly to Sir Walter Scott. Her brain might we'll be called the mother of the Waverley novels. Jane Porter lived and died an old maid. The children of her busy brain were "Thaddeus of Warsaw" and "The Scottish Chiefs" which have nov ed the hearts of millions with ex. citement and tears. Joana Baillie, poet and play writer, was one of lem. Florence Nightingale, most gracious lady heroine of lnkermon and Balaklava hospitals, has to the present written Miss before her name. The man who should marry her might well crave to take the name of Nightingale. Sister Dora, the brave spirit of English pest houses, whose story is as helpful evangel, was the bride of the worlds sorrow only. And then what names could the writer and the reader add of those whom the great world may not know, but the world of the village, the church, the family and prize bey ond all words, The Presbyterian.

An exchange very truthfuliy says: "You may be able to get a large city weekly, filled with mur- ders, scandal cases, cock fights, etc., for the same money that you pay for your local paper; but these city weeklies never advertise your county aud make your property valuable. They do not help along your schools and churches; they do not publish your county news; they say nothing of you and your town, and have no interest in you. A good newspaper is as much ad- vantage to a town or county as are schools. If ono of our farmer friends should happen in one of these city offices he would find ont in two minutes that he had no vel. come there, such as he would re- ceive in a printing office at home. Stand by your home paper-it stands by you, and is ever on the lookout for your interest"

Pnblic Opinion.

The best democratic party does the most to strengthen democrat. ic party and principals.--U. s. Democrat.
 Our position Is that a president elected as & democrat on demo cratic platform, by the democratic party, is under honorable obliga- ton to rather than any other New York World, Dem.
 Our navy ought to be al lowed to complete in the "sham ma val bat tie" which the British Admiralty proposes to have in Bantry Bay. No other nation has moresham ma val vessels, and we would proba- bly, win the prize.-Washington Star, Ind.
 The republican organs are quar- reling a good deal over the mean ing of the term offensive partisans. They are making too much of it. It is we'll known that an offensive partisan is a republican office 'hol- der-nothing more, nothing less. Atlanta Constitution, Dem.
 We desire President Cleveland and the present administration to have the love, respect, and sup port of every democrat in the coun- try. Therefore, we wish demo- crats in position in all places where the public service would not suffer by the change.-U. $. Democrat.
 Secretary Whitney has just dis covered that the government has paid $9O0,OOO for repairs on a wooden navy vessel, the original cost of which could not have been cent more than one.third that amount. However, "the cash in the treasury balances to cent Chicago Times, Ind.
 It may be in order to observe that if the republicans are deter mined among themselves that the civil service, under the present ad- ministration. Shall be composed of "offenslve partisans," they have no right 10 expect that they shall be any other than democratic "otf- ensive partisans."-Louisville Con. rier-Journal.
 To us it seems a plain. practical {, legitimate proposition un Ter d democratic administration, and vice versa, el elections by parties is farce, political issues have ceased to be, and the millennium has come.-WashingtOn Post, Dem.
 We wish the president would make haste to fill few more Mass achusetts office with capable demo- crats. Mir. Pillsbury is nnfortu- nately the only man they can flock to. He hasn't offices enough to go round, and it would ease up mat ters if the president would put democrats into the other impor. tant offices. Post, Dem.
 Let us be manly and consistent We have no right to expect bene- fits where we have rendered no service. If we arc anxious to share the advantages of democrat ic victories we must help the dem. ocrats to win such. To say that Mir. Cleveland has been inconsist- ent toward us because he has not appointed or retained Tn hlSh piac- -es colored republicans is highly ri dicul0us and absurd.-New York Freeman, Negro Organ.
 The people whose votes last year dictated the overthrow of the par ty in power desire to sec the de- cree executed elsewhere as at Washington; they want the proof of it to be made visible at their own doors. To comply with the popular wish in this respect will not hurt either the administration or the civil service. To pursue any different policy would disor- ganize the party and assure the success of its rival.-New York C,ranhic

Learning the Art of R;nkulating.

And it came to pass, there came a day when the young man with the lead pencil legs and high wa ter pants bethought himself of the skating rink.
 So he went out, and when he came nigh unto his girl, he spake unto her, saying: ''Come, Mary, let us gird ourselves up and go hence 10 the rink, for behold l have been diligent in the absence and have embedded two coupons" So they went, one with the other, for they loved each other with love, the greatness of which was like unto death.
 And when the youth and maiden were come unto the rink, they saw divers other young men and maid ems waltzing hither and tither, and standing upon their necks and spreading themselves upon the floor to the four corners of the place.
 And Mary was pleased thereat, for she saw the other maidens stick. ing to their escorts closer than boiler rivets. And she lOnged for some of the same agony.
 So she prevailed upon her lover to go and do likewise. And he went with a light heart, for he loy- ed the sport because he had been there before and knew the which ness thereW.
 And after little while he re- turned and took Mary's feet and fastened the skates thereon: And in like manner did he unto his own feet. Then they smiled one up on the other and went upon the wobbly way.
 And it came to pass when they got out where the eyes of the mul- titude were upon them, Mary for got herself and looked back. Now this was a grievous thing to do, for it was written on the wall: "Thou shalt not look back when thou skatest, lest thy feet forsake the and thou treadest upon thine ear."
 But Mary was full of joy and chocolate caramels. and remember ed not these things.
 So when she looked back her feet flew from under her. and went up into the atmosphere and cut star therein, and decended with a great crash, and Mary sat down on the floor with dull thud so that her hustle escaped and came out at the neck of her dress. And her fall was exceedingly hard; yea great was tue muchncss there. of.
 So likewise had her lover spilled himself, but he hurt himself not, for he had been like the seven wise skaters who had put cork soles in the basement of their trousers.
 But in an evil moment he saw Mary's hustle about her neck, and he lifted up his voice and laughed and asked her from whence came the haffbag.
 Then was Mary wroth, and she grew red in the cOuntenance and answered saying: "Thou leadest me in slippery paths, and when the floor riseth up and Striketh me in a grievous place, thou cometh not to my aid, yea, verily, thou gurglest at my misfortune. Hence forth we will remain together a little closer of.
 And from that day to this she passeh him by on the other side of the avenue.-Roller Skater.
