AnImnortnnt Bv-Prndnct.

1 There seems TO be little room to doubt
that the manufacture Of steel by the
Basic process will soon be extensively
engaged in in the Southern iron regions.
There is one very important thing about
this manufacture, and that is that the
Stag contains a large proportion of by
product that is extremely valuable to
Southern farmers. This is phosphate Of
lime, which is produced by the burning of
the phosphorus in the ore, there being
about One-third of a ton Of this phosphate
OF lime to every ton Of steel produced.
1t is not necessary to comment on the
value of phosphate OF lime as a fertilizer.
1t is one Of the most important compo-
nents Of nearly all commercial fertilizers.
1t has heretofore been obtained prnci-
pally from the phosphate beds on the
Carolina coast, and in other parts of the
world. The artificial phosphate has been
more largely utilized in Germany, per-
hsps, than in any other country. 1t is es-
timated that the product of phosphate of
lime resulting from the manufacture of
steel by the Basic process in Germany
last year amounted to 40, 900 tons, and it
is stated that the German government
considers this productof such Importance
that it proposes to prohibit the impOrta-
ton of nOn-phOsphoritic ores.
The extent of the beds of phosphoritic
iron ore in Alabama and other Southern
States is believed to be all but ineXhaust-
able. The value Of the phosphate of lime
obtained in the manufacture of steel by
the Basic process will no doubt be con-
siderable item on the credit side of the
manufacturers books.
The iron ores are sufficiently remote
from the natural phosphate beds to pre-
vent ruinOus competition, yet they are
close enough, probably, to insure the
placing of the phosphate on the market
atlOwer prices than now obtain in the in
! terror Of the Southern States. They are
almost in the centre Of the great agricul-
tural districts of Middle and North Ala
bama, Northwest Georgia, North Missis-
sippi and Tennessee, where the transport
tation charges to the cotton and corn
fields will be small, and railroads now ra-
date from the ore regions in all direc-
lions.
The manufacture of superphosphates
becomes a very simple and comparatively
inexpensive operation when the the phos-
plate Of lime is easily obtained. Prob
ably the manufacture of high grade fer
tilizers will soon be extensively carried
on near all the Basic steel works that
will undoubtedly be erected in the South
at an early day.

Washington Gossip IN the Baltimore Sun.
There are two little bits of gossip floating
around, growing out of the Overweening de
sire OF newly hedged fashiOnabes to show
how much they know, which are decidedly
relished by those who can ENJOY such things.
At lunch last week a distinguished prelate
who sat next to young lady who is spending
her first winter in the capital, and who was
eating his ices with a spoon, was for mo-
ment struck dumb by her remark, loud
enough to be heard BY others, ooh, why don't
you use fork? 1t isn't polite to eat ices with
spoon. when he had recovered his breath.
tins beloved father in the church replied in
the softest and most amiable tone: "My dear
chlld, | am sorry 1t Is not nice; but | was
brought up to eat ices with a spoon, and I'M
fortunately am too old to forget"
The other incident was at a dinner An
army officer OF high rank, while engaged in an
animated conversation with his vIs-a-vis, in
adVertently stuck three pronged fork into
his oysters. The hostess Immediately cried
out, "Oh, General, use the smaller fork"
From the grim look which settled upon the
features OF that warrior it might be fancied
that he was preparing for battle charge, but
he said meier word, and he did not tarry
long after the dinner.

Tried to Garry on the Child.

FT0I0 tbe Unl011 Y. = Nei0S,
For the past few weeke two large eagles
have been noticed by farmers living ave
miles north OF Little Falls, and last Friday
one OF them created great excitement by en-
qeay0rlng to carry OF five year-old son Of
Joseph DAVIS who lives near the old Strow
tavern, two miles from there, on the old Rit-
Ter road, IN the town of Mannheim. Mr.. Davis
and hired nan were engaged in building
ana repairing fences when they were sud
denly alarmed by frantic appeal for help by
the little boy, who had wandered a short dis
lance away from where they were at work
The men looked in the direction from where
the voice emanated, and were startled in dis
covering that mammoth eagle, measuring
ABOUT feet from tip to tip, was yiciOuslV
tuggng at the child's garments in order to
get good hold, so that the child could be car
ried into the forest and made its prey. The
men came to the Rescue of the boy and fought
the eagle of with clubs. They were so ex-
cited that no effort was made to capture the

Dear love l will but say good bye,
And yet some strange fOrebodings rise
Each smile Is stuffed in a sigh,
A heavy burden on me lies
You, too, within your inmost heart,
Divine shadow lurking nigh;
But since we now at last must part,
say not farewell, but just good bye,
! even thought to smile at this,
That you might call me brave and strong
But life will find so much to miss,
And jOyless moments wear so long!
HAPPY an undrawn curtain wells
The fateful tn ure from each eye;
But true faith never flags nor fails.
And so Wen hope and say good bye.
But now each instant only brings
My helpless feet more near the brink;
/ trem Die like a wretch who clngs
To straws when destined soon H. sink
Oh, have you counted well the davs
Whlche ere we meet must lag or fly?
My soul with yOu-mY body stays
Alone, when we have said goodbye!
How shall | wait until you come,
As weary women WAR and weep?
Ears deaf and lips TO others dumb,
To send you kisses when ] sleep.
And If, oh, II we never meet,
My love, forget me not, and /,
My soul shall journey with you. sweet,
And now indeed, indeed goodbye.

country to the devil.' Speaking Of Mr..
Parnell he says: Gle has great qualities.
For the first time the Irish malcontents
have leader who is not eloquent and
who is honest. Who knows what he
wants and faces the risks involved in
getting it. Our poor Right Honorable
rhetoricians are no match for this man,
who understands realities. believe that
he will succeed and that success will de-
stroy him, ana | am very sorry for him.

cess will destroy English politicians who
permit themselves to be his instruments
rs soon as "A bitter experience Of the con-
sequences has brought EnglIshmen and
Scotchmen, and | will add Irishmen, to
their Senses" II has not yet been shown
that Mr.. Huxley, although great scien-
tlst, is a great prophet.

The naval drill at Pensacola begins

will be the most important affair of the
kind that has ever taken place in South

and imposing Illustration OF naval war

Pensacola bay Ia well suited for the drill.
It has plenty OF water and ample room
for the manUuvres Of the vessels.
Visitors will meet with warm well

main points Of the programme for the two
weeks, and at the same time extending
a hearty invitation to visitors from
all parts OF the country 20

ample preparations have been made for
their accommodation. There Is no place
in the country where the two first weeks
OF April can be spent more pleasantly
than at Pensacola. The weather is pretty
certain 10 be line, the surroundings are
always agreeable and attractive there,

II looks as II the new Senator from Califor-

likely TO combine the frontiersman and the
millionaire, with the former characteristics

cally all his life and his visits to the big house
he has built in San Francisco are somewhat in
frequent. Certain it Is, he has not assumed any
OF the graces put on by other California mil

money has not spoiled him any. Hearst does
not know Stanford, nor are they likely to be-
is expected 10 become an addition to the odd
men OF the Senate and make himself heard.

Allegation Is superfuous. Mr.. sherman, like
several Others. will not abandon ANYTHING of

The lot OF Senatorial leader who cau't

his manner of expressing himself on the sub
Ject Is getting to be decidedly pepperv, After
spending weeks IN getting a series of resolu-
'loh7 passed denOuncing the President and
comparing him TO Charles l., it is very exas-
peratlng TO the senator from Vermont to be
tod by his colleagues that the resolutions did
not mean ANYTHING and that they propose to
treat them as so much waste paper.

Senators Arguing Cases.
From, the .Neao York Trf5una.

FROM GfbS 4fctC kOFk LF4OHNe.
well known attorney of this CITY was
ia king to me the other dav about the custom
which permits Senators and members OF the
House to practice before the Supreme Court.
He seemed to look npOn it as entailing great
scandal upon all concerned; but rather i'm
aglne that it was professional jealousy which
made him take that view of the case. His ar
gument. of course, was that a Senator for in
stance, who was paid to perform certain du-
ties in the Senate during certain hours ought
not to accept Zee for arguing case in the
Supreme Court, and devoting time belonging
To- the people - his own gain. Then, too he
thought that there was certain indelicacy
in senator appearing before a
Judge whose appointment he con
reason of The power OF confirmation vested in
the senate. But if that argument wore a
good one, it would bar every senator from
practice before any of the United States
Courts in the country. After all, the dues-
ton is not one of much practical bearing
There are very few Senators who practice be-
fore the Supreme Court. Edmunds and
Evarts do 80 more frequently than any of
their colleagues. Harrison does sometimes
but not often, This almost eXhausts the list
in the senate. In the House there is Hen
burn Of Iowa, Tucker OF Virginia, Stewart of
Vermont, Springer of illinois, and a few
others, but their number, too, is limited
Moreover, they are rarely engaged In hig
cases. OF the latter, Edmunds and Evarts
have monopoly. ! am told that Mr. Ed
munds' income from his supreme Court prac-
tice alone amounts on an average to 500. 900 a
year, and that in some years II has reached as
nigh as $4,000.
