BARLOW L WILSON.
To attempt to say anything in the way of
an eulogy on this ~wellknown organization,
DOW better than ever, would be entirely su-
perfuous. We cannot resist, however,
quoting the following interesting comparison
from the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette:
only a week or so past the Barlow Il
Wilson Company appeared at Heucks, and
We spoke at that time of their entertainment
as being the best ever given in the minstrel
line in this city. That statement, strong as
~ is, we see no reason now to contradict.
Everything the most magnificent and elabo
rate was gwen by Inc Barlow 4 Wilson
people, and We nov repeat that, they gave
such an entertainment as was never before
or has never since been seen in this city.
The qualifications made are but explana-
tory. The Thatcher, Primrose & West
troupe is a good one, but the performance
is not even or finished. Billy Rice and his
Jokes are interesting as relics of a bygone
day. Thatcher told a story interlarded

Making Close Change.

Az interesting story is told of MI.
Vanderbilt's regard for money. He in
yited a friend out riding Il day, and
pulled up his beautiful horses at the
Yichy spring, saying: 81 always stop
and get u drink here" He had on
driving gloves, but managed TO empty
his glass: Instantly, however, his
hands were busy s%,raining at the reins,
Tor tne horses were quite lively. His
frieni knew that the Vichy must be
paid ior, and saw that Mr. Vanderbilt
could not release the horses 10 take
any Change from his pocket. So he
rather timidly produced a quarter from
his waistcoat. He was handing it to
the boy who had brought the Vichy,
when the eyes OF Mr.. Vanderbilt fell on
the coin. Tut, tut said he, nudging
his companion with his elbow, 10
cents is enough; 10 cents is plenty

Occupation for Women.

Miss Bouton, the editor of the House
hold Department OF the Toledo Blade,
suggests grating and budding as a
good occupation for women. She SAYS:
/. 1t is not laborio,is. =. 1t is quickly
learned. 3. 1t does not REQUIRE a heavy
capital or great outlay for needed tools.
4. 1t is a kind Of work which will bring
other work: from grating and budding
to pruning and vine-dressing is but a
step. s.. 1t pays we'll. s. 1t brings its
own reward and payment ip health
gained in the open air,
The woman who wants to follow this
occupation should get some standard
work upon fruit-gardening, and study
carefully the different modes of budding
and grating, finding out what is best
for the propagation Of different kinds
of fruit. The more that is learned of
the habits OF trees the better, and it is
wonderful how much there is of inter-
est when once the study is begun.
The tools required are very simple
and inexpensive. A good knife for
budding can be bought for IS cents,
while for grating, the sharp knife and
hammer necessary will cost but a few
shillings. There is also the grating
clay and wax which will be needed and
which can be prepared by the worker.
Most of the work in budding is done in
July and August, though in some cases
it is accomplished successfully in Sep
TENDER. The best time for grating
fruit trees is in the spring, just as they
are about to blossom, or while the
blooms are still upon the branches.
The season for this kind OF work is not
long, lasting only a short time in the
spring, and then again in late summer
and fall. BY joining pruning with it,
however, q person may be kept busy Il
large part of the year, all OF it indeed
when out-of-door work would be safe
and agreeable for women. This, too,
can soon be learned, although it is
more difficult than budding and graft
ing, requiring the exercise OF more
careful Judgment. 1t may be done at
different seasons, according to the
kinds Of fruit, but the spring, before
the sap begins to rise, Or the late au-
tumn after the wood is well ripened,
are generally chosen, although winter
pruning is not unsuccessful, and for
some trees is best. However, these
things are learned by careful attention
to the business, just as all other train
ing is acquired:
In pruning moro attention is paid tc
the quality OF the tools, and a greater
number Of them is necessary. They
are not, however, very numerous, com
prising only a good knife, a small saw,
a mallet, a chisel, and Il large saw,
costing all told but a few dollars.

makes one shuider, draws his sword ON
them, saying, by heavens, III make a
Ghost OF him that lets me- Then,
turning.to the Ghost, he holds bis sword
out. go on; Ill follow thee; and the
ghost, moves OFF. Hamlet remains
standing still, his sword extended be-
fore him, to gain more distance; and
when the audience have lostsight of the
Ghost, he begins Ito follow him, at
times stopping, and then going on
again, but always with his sword en-
tended. his eyes fixed on the Ghost,
with disheyeled hair and breathless, un-
til he, too, is lost behind the scenes.
Youmay easily imagine what loud APP
plause accompanies. his exit. 1T begins
as soon as the Ghost moves of, and
lasts until Hamlet likewise disappears"

Garrick as Hamlet.

The German critic Lichtenberg, who
wrote to his friend Boie from England
in October, 1875, has much that is in
teresting to say of Garrick generally,
and of Garrick in other special parts,
but l must now be content with briefly
indicating that he describes Garrick as
q model of strength and grace, as at
once distinguished from the actors
'aroundhim by the intense life of his
look, movement, and gesture, and as
compelling as if by magnetic force the
sympathy of his audience with every
passing assumed mood OF his own.
"Now, my dear b., if, after what ]
have told you, you have been able to
picture a Garrick to yourself, follow me
with hia in one OF two scenes. To-day,
because [ am somewhat in the humor
for it, l will take the one out Of Ham
let where the Ghost appears to him.
You know the scene already from Mr..
Fielding: My description will not
make the other supertuous, but only
explain it.
Hamlet appears in black attire, the
only one, alas, which is still worn in
the whole court for his poorfather, who
has been scarcely dead for Il couple OF
months. Iioratio and Marcellus ac-
company him in uniform. They await
the Ghost. Hamlet has folded his arms
and pulled his hat over his eyes. 1t is
a cold night, and just II O'Clock. The
theater is %darkened, and the whole au-
dience as still and the faces as motion
less as if they had been painted on the
walls OF the house. At the extreme
end OF the theater one might have
heard q pin drop. Suddenly rs Hamlet
goes rather far up the stage somewhat
to the left, with his back TO the audi
ence, Horatio starts, Look, my lord,
it comes says he, pointing to the right,
where the Ghost is standing immov-
able, ere one is even aware OF it. At
these words Garrick turns suddenly
round, and at the same moment stag
gers back two or three PAGES with
trembling knees. his hat falls to the
ground. both arms-especially the left
are nearly extended to the full, the
hand as high as the head, the right arm
more bent and the hand lower, the lin
gers spread out and the mouth open.
There he remains standing, with legs
far apart, but still in Il graceful atti-
tude, as ii electrified, supported by. his

The sartoris Matter.

And now writes a correspondent,
the papers are openly speaking OF Mel
lie Grants unfortunate marriage and a
contemplated divorce. Mr.. Sartoris
was well known in Wisconsin before he
met the presidents daughter. His ia
ther owned land in the state, and the
son was considered a rude, unpublished
sporting character. His habits were
not steady, and he was so unattractive
than az Oshkosh maiden rejected him
as a lover. He was so t'outcd there that
when he announced his engagement to
Nellie Grant he was not believed, and
then he showed her love letters to on
firm his Statements. This intensified
the bad impression he had alreadymade
in Wisconsin. Gen. Grant diSdpproved
OF the match, but his daughter i'm
agined she could only be happy with
her Algernon, and her father sadly
gave his consent. 1t was remarked by
every II here that he made an indif-
ferent lover, and people wondered why
the young lady's parents and brother
did not resent her neglect. Even then
he carried on Il Irritation with a pretty
young married lady, and wien not
with her he was with the sporting men
at the schuetzen fest. He was Il wild
fellow and did not know how to take
are of Il wife after he married her.
The passengers on the Ealtic who trav-
eled with the bride we're so indignant
at the way the groom neglected her
that they %oanvassed the question Of
drawing UP resolutions d%enouncing
him. This they RETAINED from doing.
on account of her parents. The cap
tain Of the Baltic had newly furnished
his cabin for the use of the royal cou-
pie, and had to refurnish it again
after Immigration before it was fit for
occupancy. Mr.. Sartoris had made no
provision at the hotel at Southampton
for his bride, and the poor little thing
had no accommodations until the
Americans came to her relief. What a
contrast to her departure III a coach
and-four from the house and when she
sailed from New York a petted, feted
gride. Some of those passengers have
told me how strong was the feeling OF
indignation against MI. Sartoris at that
time; SO it has been known to many
since the early days of the honeymoon
.h"e iS iA1tAli'SS 'H
Il for Gen. Grants only daughter.
Since The death of Mr.. Sartoris'
mother his father has leaned upon his
daughter-in-law, and dependedupon her
andher children for society. Mr.. Alger-
non sartoris spends ali his time in the
United States when his wife is in En-
gland. When she came to New York
last February he wen back to England.
Although he had been in New York all
the winter, he saw nothing Of his wife's
relatives while there. There has not,
probably, been any Intercourse with
him since the notoriety he gained two
years ago by the seizure for debt of the
furniture in a house he and u girl occu-
pied somewhere out west. When the
scandal was published, Gen. and Mrs.
Grant We're at Long Branch, The dis
grace was never alluded to by them,
even to their most intimate friends. No
doubt they keenly felt for their daugh-
ter, and doubtless the separation dates
from that time.
