Two willing workers.

Speaking to Mrs. DIR. Pavy about the
matters she had before the government
during tho past session Of Congress, she
gave particular emphasis to the assistance
which she had received, as Missourian,
from two Of her state's leading men-Sena-
tor Cockrell and Gen. Burnes.
Among other things she said: "They es-
peused my cause like the gallant generals
they are, and Of course my cause nourished.
Both gentlemen took pains to strike when
the iron was hot, which meant to serve me
effectually at the proper time.
"They required no reminding. But were
willing workers for a worthy and just cause.
Each gentleman made visits, talked to
others, and personally endeavored to see
that the green.bay tree OF my hopes should
not wither and fade and fall. II anyone
in the state Of Missouri can find two nobler
and more earnest and just workers for their
people than these model colleagues, will
be quite ready and justified In giving three
cheers and a God-speed to the alleged better
manu-
For the week past Mrs. Pavy has been
very i'll with brain affection, and is under
the care of DR.. z. T. Sewers, of Washington,
az present.
Her trip to Europe, which her serious ILL
ness has intercepted, unnecessarily deferred.
As she was about to take sea journey
for her health, her many friends will learn
with regret Of her prostration before her

Grange, which is the same as our National
Grange. The unwrltten work is the same
In both countries. Within year the order
has been introduced in Australia. The
order has performed wonders In the
short period OF its existence. Scarce
ly more than decade old, Il
has revolutionIzed our whole system OF
agriculture, has obtained honorable reeog-
milton in the union, and has planted itself
firmly In the way OF great corporations that
are eating up the farmers substance and
depriving them Of the Just rewards OF their
toll. IL has done much TO elevate the peo-
pie in this country, socially, morally, and
intellectually; IL has provided means of
education for the young, and opened new
channels Of pleasure for the old; so that the
American farmer OF to-day is quite differ
ent being from the farmer even ten years
ago. Through the influence OF this or
ganizatlon the manufacturer and agri-
oultuhst have been brought into
more reciprocal relations aud under
stand that between these two indus
tries there can be no bad feeling, no unfair
conduct, without working harm TO both.
Politicians Of all political shades see in
these gatherings a significance worthy Of
consideration. 10000 people were here
during the week, practical farmers were
present from thirty different states, the ex-
hibits were valued at $1,000,000, requiring
nearly 300 cars to transport them, and the
goods sold on the ground and the orders
taken amounted to nearly $250,000. The

Rumors of n New Bull Pool.


Rumors of New Bull Pool.
New YORK, Sept. 4.-The stock market
again relapsed into the dull and lstless
state in which It has been every day this
week except Friday. There was no interest
in the trading except in st. Paul and, for
a short time, in Jersey Central. The earn
ings Of the Northwestern reported to-day
were fully up to the expectations this,
with the persistent bulling of the Granger
stocks from Chicago, enabled them to hold
the advance established yesterday. Jersey
Central was moved up sharply upon
rumors Of new bull pool In that stock and
reports Of Its relations with Baltimore and
Ohio.
There was considerable irregularity IN the
early dealings but the market was dull and
fluctuations small, noon figures not being
materially different from those OF the open
ing. Prices then sagged of percepHbly
until about 1880, when the movement in
Jersey Central was started, and the re-
mainder Of the list responded slowly The
highest prices were generally reached In the
early part OF the last hour, and were well
held until the close, which was dull but
firm.

SHE WILL MARRY A KING.
An African Princess Who Has Been
Raised by "a Missionary.

Down In Hanover county, Va, not many
miles from this city, is an African girl who
is destined to marry king. At the present
time she is member of the family Of the
Rev. Curtis Grubb, an Episcopal clergyman,
who many years ago went out from Lou.
doun county, Va, as missionary TO west-
tern Africa. While there, he and his wife
became very much attached to little girl,
q princess OF the nation among whom they
were prosecuting their missionary work,
and when IL came time for them to return
TO their home In America they asked per-
mission that the child should accompany
them. She was then not more than eight or
nine years Of age. Her father, when first
requested to allow his daughter TO come to
America, gave his consent, II may be, not
thinking that the missionary and his wife
were serious in their intentions OF taking
the child homo with them, but when 1t
came time for the departure he did not
want her to 20. He was told that he had
promised that she might be taken by the
missionary. 1t is cardinal principle
among the tribe that promise once made
cannot be broken, II IL Is insisted upon; so
the father reluctantly gave his consent that
the child might go. The missionary named
II Nettie, after his own wife, and treated It
more as a plaything and curiosity than as a
servant. Though having children of their
own, tne nttle African girl was treated as
though Of the same kith and kin, and looked
up to the missionary and bis wife as though
they were her own parents. She made prog
ress In education, and learned the ways OF
Americans with amazing rapidlty. Greater
pollteness could not be expected OF Pa
risian than she always displays. Never can
she be induced to pass in front OF any one,
and whenever she hands anything to per-
son 1t is her invariabe custom TO first fall
upon her knees In an exaggerated courtesy.
She 10 now fourteen years old, and has ar
rived at the age when she would be eligible
to marriage II stlll among her own people.
Ever since she came TO America a CORE
spondence has been kept up between Mr..
Grubb and his successors In Africa, and
thus her friends have heard from her and
she from them. In aletter recently received
Mr.. Grubb was requested TO give his con-
sent that little Nettie might return TO her
native land that the king Of her country
might marry her. This request will prob
ably be complied with, II the child her.
self can be induced to give up her American
friends, to whom she is very much attached.
She is well educated for one Of her years,
and fully understands the manners and GUS
toms OF civilized life; and should she be-
come the wife Of the king. there is no tell
ing but she would have apowerful influence
In uplifting her people from their present
