A MRS. MARY. LIvERM0RE's FAMOUS
BOOK, my STORY OF THE WAR"

In this new and superhly illustrated
work, The world famous Mary A. Liv.
erruore narrates her personal work and
experiences as N hospital and field
nurse during the war of the rebellion.
We do not know when 700 pages have
given US more genuine pleasure. Mrs.
Livermrre spent four years as nurse
in hospitals, camps, at the front, and
pu the battlefield and these four years
were packed with pathos, glory, and
sacrifice probably never paralleled iu
the life of any other women. Her
narrative presents a vivid inner picture
of the "womanly side of the war;"
more especially Of her own work aud
thrilling experiences, with many pa
thetic and humorous incidents portray
ing the lights and shadows of hospital
life. These are described as only an
eyewitness and a ten6eThearled
woman could describe them.
What wonderful work she did
How htrOic her labOrs, how thrilling
her XperieDce in those dark years II
is n story never TO be forgotten.
When che first entered upon her hos
piral career deathly faintne>s cam-
over her, but she derived herself for
the work that had to be done, aud
soon becsme accustomed to it Never
again were her nerves distur ded by
hospital sights aud scenes. For four
years she held herself in iron control
and gave herself up to mOtherly minis.
rratiOns to the sick and wounded of the
rank and file.
We regard this splendid book az
wholly nD.que work, for it presents
lie w"nIanty, or what may very s3-
,r"rriateIy he termed the heavenly
.idc of tie war, aud this has never
hitherto been written. 1t lifts the
AMI shows how heroic aud
devoted aud blessed her work was. Il
Is full Of the deepest patbOs, the

over; the Indians could not recover from

winter campaign, and on the oath of De.

General Sheridan kept as hostages sew

him unharmed, which being accompl shed
he turned the warriors loose. The long

their property to the value of more than q

General Sheridan had ordered two of his
couriers north from Camp Supply with
dispatches for Washington and private
mail for various points. He also gave them
an order directing me to pay them one

"Great estates rather than great
fortunes" says Hon. ". FL. Prescott
in a recent address, were the ideals
of Southern prosperity, and one
marked and most wholesome effect
of this Was that the effort and ten
dency of Southern life was toward a
home, hot house, not toward the ex,
aggerated increase of individual
wealth but toward the creation and
preservation of the family, with all its
gentle and refining affections, with
all homely dependencies, with that
union of memories and hopes, of
loves and sorrows, from which only
can be develop the strength, the wis
dom the noble self-sacrifice of as gen
uine patriotism"

Weather and Crops.

Extracts from the Louisiana Wealth
er-CrOp Bulletin for week ending Sat
urday, August 8, 1889:
Reports from North Louisiana in
dictate generally favorable weather
conditions for the growing crops
during the past week. There is a
complaint of worms in the cotton in
the majority of the northern parish
es, but no damage is yet reported
The recent rains and cool nights in
these parishes have caused cotton to
shed some, but all other crops are
reported as doing we'll.
VIM parish reports the prevailing
excellent condition of cotton, except
that the crop has sustained some in
jury by heavy local rains.
A general remark applicable to the
entire cotton growing section of the
state is that the PROSPECTS at date
for an excellent yield have not been
better for years.
nepofts 1fom the central parishes
indicate a continuance of the favora-
bic conditions reported for several
weeks past.
The correspondents from Tangipa-
hoa report that a largely increased
acreage of Strawberries will be set
out during the present season.
Reports from the sugar and rice
regions are generally very favorable.
The rainfall for the week was badly
distributed, consisting of local show.
ers aggregating several inches in
some sections, whereas in others the
fall was less than an inch.
The rice crop continues to promise
well and is reported as heading.
The late plant is also doing well.
The rivers and streams in the rice
region are generally very low.
The temperature conditions were
slightly below a seasonal average for
the week, the deficiency occurring
at night. The amount of sunshine
received was about the average, rang
ing from so to so per cent.
The average rainfall for North
Louisiana was 1.02 inches; for South
Louisiana Lao inches.

The name of Malone is the syno.
nym for political corruption. Such
influence as Malone will do in Vir-
ginia- is due entirely to the money
he receives from the republican ma
tional committee and the parceling-
out ofthe state which he manipulates.
He is neither an orator nor a states
man, bnt simply o trickster. If it
turns out to be true that the federal
administration has undertaken to
foist him upon the people of Virginia
as their governor, the act will recoil
not only upon the administration,
but upon the republican party
throughout the country.
