"How beautiful the water isf
To me It's woudrous fair
No spot can ever lonely be
If water spsrkles there;
It hath q thousand tongues of mirth,
OF grandeur, or delight,
And every heart is gladder made
Whore water greets the sight"

j., c. Longland, of Buffalo county,
dropped in1o the GRAPHIC Office the
other day for a little chat. In the
u y of conversation he remarked
that although it was as convenient
for him to trade in Miller, St. Law
renee, Woonsocket or White Lake,
lie always came to Kimball because
he could get from two to five cents
per bushel more for grain here than
in the other towns mentioned; and,
furthermore, he invariably found the
prices of the kimball merchants
down to rock-bottom figures. Mr..
Longland merely corroborates the
statements of hundreds of other far
mers in Buffalo county.

Mai. Washington and the Colonel.

Washington Irving says that Gen. Wash
ington had a serious passion at Is for some
unknown beauty which made him really un
happy for time. The son of President
Tyler, who is distantly related to the Wash.
ington family, tells me that the general tried
to win the daughter of Col Cary, of DENLY,
Warwick county. Va. Col Cary was very
wealthy, and Washington, who paid atten.
ton to none but prospective heiresses, was
much attracted by one of his daughters. He
was poor major then. and he rode on horse
back to Warwick county and called upon
Col. Cary. Cary, a stiff old gentleman with
a ruffled shirt and much dignity, asked Ma.
Washington, as he alighted from his horse:
MAY l inquire, sir, what has caused you to
honor me with visit at this time!"
Maj. Washington blushingly replied that he
had come to ask permission to pay his ad-
dresses to Miss Cary with view to marrying
her.
"Well, sir" responded the stately colonel, ~
would have you understand that my daughter
rides in her own carriage; and if that be your
business you may as well mount your horse,
sir, and return"
Miss Cary afterwards married q man named
Amber, member of one of the noted fami-
lies of Virginia She was present at the
celebration which took place after the sur
render at Yorktown, and it is said that when
she saw Washington so highly honored she
tainted away in the realization of the great
mistake she had made in not marrying him.

The Forest Regions of Louisiana.

The woodlands of Louisiana are fast passing
into the hands of northern men. Four years

sent their agents down there to examine the
southern pine, to see what kind of lumber i:
would make, and the quality Of the wood

examination at a minimum cost, and sent
back the most favorable reports urging the
firms they represented to make purchases

EFFECT OF MUSIC ON FISH.
A Theory Held by Fish Commissioners
Bartlctt.A Demonstration.

Bartlctt.A Demonstration.
Fish Commissioner Bartlett, of this state,
has long been under the impression that fish,
though they have no perceptible ears, have
the faculty Of feeling-that Is, the sense OF
touch-so strongly developed as to be able
not only to feel noises but to distinguish by
the differences in the variations of tho sound
waves the difference between mere chaotic
noise and rhythmic music. It was while
reading the story Of Orpheus and Eurydice
that Col Bartlett formed this theory, for,
as he said to himself, and reasonably, too,
why should the fish of the sea come up to
hear Orpheus Tyre, though they had never
been known to come up to hear the greater
sound of battles fought on the seashore or
on the sea! For many years Col. Bartlett
has been quietly making experiments, and he
Is now so far advanced In knowledge of the
subject as to be able to say, without fear Of
successful contradiction, that no music is
more thoroughly appreciated by fish than
that of the human voice, nor are the louder
tones SO attractive to the finny tribes rs the
lower and sweeter ones. For the benefit Of
a News representative, who recently visited
Quincy for the purpose Of making inquiry
into this subject, Col. Bartlett invited Mr..
David Wilcox, very sweet singer Of local
renown, to accompany them in a boat early
in the morning before the noise of the day
had begun.
"Now," said Col. Bartlett, handing to the
News investigator the tube Of his aquascope-
the wonderful instrument through which the
commissioner views submarine scenes-"now,
as Mr.. Wilcox sings, you watch the actions of
the fish,"
Mr.. Wilcox sang portion of that delightful
old song, "Genevieve,' and as the low, sweet
tones of his melodious voice foated down upon
the water, tiny wavelets could be seen $50 pow
erful is the aquascope) ripping in rhymetic
distances toward the bottom of the bay; and
as these waves passed over and among the
bass, pickerel, pike, crappies, ETC., which were
moving about in the water, the fish paused as
of in listening attitudes, and, after remaining
each few seconds in utter motionlessness,
slowly and carefully turned first upon their
sides, then broadly on their backs, and thus
remained as long as the singing continued.
Col. Bartlett explains this, saying that the
under side of fish, being soft and without the
bony scales which protect the back, is more
sensitive to the sound waves.-Chicago News

Michigan fruit growers claim that pine
trees scattered through an orchard have a
beneficial influence in driving away the moth
of many of the destructive insects which prey
upon apples and apple trees. 1t is supposed
to be the strong effluvia issuing from the tur-

Tho Tomb Of Abelard and Hcloise.
News comes from Paris that NJ. Gounod is
about to compose an opera founded on the
story of Abelard and Heloise. Wonder if he
will weave in anything about their tomb in
Pere la Chaise, to which disappointed lovers
make pilgrimages, decking it with funereal
wreaths? In an open space above the tomb
reclne two marble figures side by side, which
are said to be from the original tomb of those
unfortunate lovers. But they were not. The
cold, unromantic fact is that the efigies are
from different tombs in an old Paris church
that was destroyed by the revolutionists near
ly 100 years ago, and they did not even be-
long together The tomb itself is constructed
of the remains of other tombs, and nothing
about the monument ever had any connection
with Abelard and Heloise until brought to
Pere la Chase and rechristened. Sift-
ings
