Coffee.

sec big train of coffee was made
up MT New Orleans for this market, tho
Goiiec coming from South America.
lhlS IS great industry. Coffee Is the
principal product of Brazil, growing in
the mountain country, being better as
the nils are sleeper, and amountin,.
10 4,OOO,O0O bags annually. Coffee,
growing is an interesting industry. Tho
seed is first sown, and When the huah
Is about two feet high It is transplantod
in rows about four feet apart. In fonr
years tho bush bears fruit, and thoroof-
ter for forty years, the tree being in full
rigor from its tenth year until it DECAYS
at forty. The plantations present their
most beautiful and attractive apncor-
ancc in September and October, when
the trees blossom. The blossoms ore
white and very fragrant, and arc sue
cccdcd by 4 small fruit, green at first.
and which is not ripe for gathering un
til March, and from that to August. 1t
often happens, that the gathering is con-
tlnucd the year round, many trees pro-
duclng more than two crops. The labor
is done by slaves, many planters owning
hundreds of them. After the fruit IS
gathered it is thrown into large, open
yards, paved with rock and stone, and
on grade sufficient to run the water
away. After some days exposure to
the sun, the berries being perfectly dry,
they arc put into the crl,Sher to sepl-
rate the coffee from the husk. The coiIee
Is then passed through large and small
sleVcs, one under tho other, with Il large
fan at the back of them, by which
means the coffee is relieved of the husks
and graded according to the size of the
grain. The best is sent to the burnish-
CT, which gives it an additional market
value, and to obtain still fancicr quail
ty, though this is in reality only qucs-
tlon OF tho eye, the gram is placed in Il
tank half full Of dccoction of green
coifec-bcans and water. After REMAIN
ing there several days this dyed grain
is dried and FURNISHED and sold as extra
fancy, though it is not really better than
the other as far rs the quality or taste is
concerned. This work is all done by
appliances on the plantations and /
was told very recently that several
planters have rs much rs $25O,OOO in
vested i'll machinery of all kinds. This
system OF getting the coffee ready for
the market is of course only employed
by the wealthy planters There arc
many who are still very backward and
relain all of the primitive methods.-

How Many Hours for Slecp?

There is an old saying that has
frightened great many people from
taking the rest that nature demanded
Tor them, ''Nine hours are enough for q
fool" They may be; and not too many
tor wise man who feels that he needs
them. Goethe, when performing his
most prodigious literary fcats, felt that
he needed nino hours; what is better, he
took them. We presume it is conceded
by all thoughtful persons that the brain
IN very young children, say three or
four years of age, requires all of twelve
hours in rest, or sleep. This period is
shortened gradually until, at fourteen
years of age, the boy is found to need
only ten hours. When full grown and
in healthy condition, the man NAV
find night of eight hours sufficient to
repair the exhaustion of the day and
ncw-crcatc him for the morrow. Bat If
he diScOCcr That he needs more Slecp he
should take H. There is surely some.
thing wrong about him; perhaps u for
gotten waste must be repaired. His
sleep, evidently. has not been made up;
and until it has and he can spring to
his work with an cXhilaration for it, he
should Sensibly conclude to let his in-
stlnct control him and stay in bcd.-

a TALE OF WOE FROM IRELAND

Maidcns Naked and Starving The Inhabi-
Moss and Roots.
The English Government has placed
gunboats at the service of Mr.. Tukc in
his work of relieving the inhabitants of
tho islands along the western Irish
coast. Understandable distress has been
developed among among the people
inhnbiting the Arran Isles, Off Galway,
who besides having hardly anything
but moss aud sea grass left to eat, are
without fire and often without clothing
and shelter. 1t is not rare to find girls
of seventeen and eighteen kept in en-
forced hiding during the dan time be-
cause bcrcfl Of every thread of cloth
ing, long ago bartcred away for seed
potatoes or roots to feed the smaller
children. Fishng-Inspccto Brady re-
Gently went among the miserable pco-
pie of Arran 10 distribute relief fur
nlshcd by an organization of Irish
police. His funds ran short and he
still had SO much piliable wretchcduess
TO relieve that he appealed to Mr..
Bnsscy, who is charged with the dis
lrlbutlOn of the raised in America
through the New York iSun for tho
Impoverished fishermen Of Achiil and
Boflin Islands, and begged him to di-
vert part of his store for the benefit Of
the Arrancsc. This Mr.. Bussev was
permitted to do, and he reports that in
order TO save the lives Of scores of
people, now dying of starvation in
those Western islands, it il imperative
that relief on large scale be at once
organized.

Gates O. Happiness.

All men and women should rejoice to
remain part child all through life, how
ever long its course may run. The
games, the dance, the anccdOtc, the AS
sembly of friends, the feast, arc rs much
part of humanity as its natural power
to laugh or to perceive the points OF wit.
Amusement is one of the forms OF hui
man happiness. This happiness. Ike
old Thcbcs, has hundred gates for its
coming and going the gate OF tears;
for man wccpS when he is happy amid
music or in rcvislting his mother, g
home, the gate OF prnsivcncSs, for ne IS
happy when he reads "Gray's El"gy' or
walks in tho rustling autumn leaves
the gate of admiration, for man is hap
py amid the beauty Of nature and of
art; the gate of friendship, when heart
finds its companion heart; the gate OF
hope, for man is happy when the com
ing days arc pictured with these angel
figures of expectation. OF these hundred
gates of happiness amusement makes
onc-plannGd by the Builder of human
life. 1t must open before us and VIC
may all pass in and out as long as the
heart shall remain unbroken by death

THE FREE-TRADE MOVEMENT.

Congressmen. ...
In accordance with resolution OF
the Executive Committee of the Free

lowing letter has been mailed to each

this State:

TON OF SOUTH CAROLINA. -.

Ny Dear Si"-The Free-Trade AS.
sociation of South Carolina believe that
OF all causes assigned for the present
dcplorable prostration of industrial in
torestsin the United States, none is moro
disastrous and tar-reaching than tho
system of sO-called protection under
which grcvious tariff, imposed avow-
cdly as an extraordinary war measure,
mas been pcrpctuated through twenty
years of profound peace.
ihcy believe that this wrong endurcs
only because unrcalized and unexpos-
ell. They have therefore resolved to
urge upon the people Of South Carroll
ma, III public meetings, the propriety
Oh demanding of Congress speedy
abolition OF artificial barriers and gov
ernmehtal toll-ga,es, by which the
'"'hC VI Iilc WOflu Is diverted from its
natural channels, and man is deprived
by man of his God-given right to secure
the fullest returns to his labor.
Feeling assured that as q custodian
of South Carolina's interests in the
Federal Congress you are desirous of
maintaining her past record in this
matter, aud of removing distractions
to her material progress, the Free
Trade Association warmly invite your
uid in their work.
They trust that you will consent to
deliver ut least one public address Mt
such time and place in the State as may
bc most convenient, discussing the
burdens OF the tariff, setting forth tho
position Of Congress in regard to its
repeal in whole or in part, and sug-
grsling the means by which your con-
slitucnts may most efficiently cooper
ate with YOU in securing relief so
greatly needed, yet so long deferred.

THE WRONG MEN LYNCuEE.
y Shocking Discovery Made Too Late 10
Do Any Good.

The horrible murder on Christmas
Eve, 1881, when three children were
murdered at Ashland, Ky, which re-
suited in lynching, is recalled again
by developments about to be made
which will demonstrate that Neal.
Craft and Ellis were innocent of the
crime for which they suffered. For
some time seven gentlemen have been
employing competent detective to
slit every theory and investigate every
cleW. Their work has been crow,ied
with success, and it is claimed that tho
arrest OF the real criminals will soon
follow. The evidence is said to be
conclusive and will show that the
triple murder was committed early in
the evening; that The perpetrators
went to the houseby appointment with
one of the girls, who had previously
been on intimat terms with one Of
them, and that the triple murder fol-
lowed the unintentional killing of the
boy for resisting the assaults on tho
girls. The arrests would have been
made before but for the excited state
Of public feeling on the subject. The
suspccten parties hold very respecta-
bic places.

a Singular Bird.

A Port Jcrvis correspondent writes;
Lewis Remcy found strange bird on
tho sidewalk :: front of his residence.
in the Co. IN block, this village, a few
day The bird did not attempt TO
fly, and being extremely awkward in its
movements on the ground il was easily
captured. 1t is almost the size Of an or
binary grouse or pheasant, and has 4
bod as round as Il bail. 1t has a short
neck and head shaped like ducks,
with sharp bill. It's eyes are bright
red. The legs, which are slate covered,
are set very close to the rump end Of the
bird, making it top heavy on land.
There arc three toes on each foot, and
each toe is wcbbcd separately, the mcm-
branc being shaped like an oar blade.
The head, neck, and upper part of the
body are dark gray, and tlle under part
OF the body is white. The bird was
placed in n tub of water. 1t dove and
friskcd about in the water with wonder
fully quick and graceful movements. No
one hcrCabOuts ever saw or heard of q
bird like il. How it came to be in the
spot where it was found, which is half q
mile from any stream or body of water,
and where it camo from, are mysteries
which no one can explain.

No rest does my weary pen get:

Effects OF Composition In Rates of

This effect is moi caused by any design
on the part Of traders nor from any
bcncflccnt legislation on the part of
politicians. 1t results from the opera

operations of the same laws produce the
same effect on the rates of tranSporta-
