"SIT7 AND "SET."-Many of the
agricultural journals are sorely
troubled 10 know whether a hen
sits or sells. If some editor of dig
nifty would set a hen on the nest.
and the little editOrT would let her
sit, it would be we'll for the world.
Now a man, or woman either, can
set a hen, although they cannot lit
her; neither can they set on her,
although the old hen might SIT on
Them by the hour if they would al
low. A man cannot set on the
washbench but he could set The
basin ON il, and neither the basin
nor the grammarians would object.
He could sit on a dogs tail if the
dog were willing, or he might set
his foot on it. But if he should set
on the aforesaid tail, or sit his foot
there, the grammarIans as well as
the dog would howl. And vet, as
strange as 1t may seem, the man
might set the tail aside and sit
down, and neither be assaDed by
the dog nOr the g~rammanans.

The story Of an Iron Egg.
)f an egg in the Berlin Museum

Of an egg in the Berlin Museum
the following story is told;
Many years ago a prince became
affianced TO a lovely princess, TO
whom he promised TO send a mag
niiicent gift as a testimony OF his
affection. In due time the mess
enger arrived, bringing the pro-
missed gift, which appeared to be
an iron egg. The princess was So
angry 10 think that the prince
should send her so valueless a
present that she threw ii upon the
floor, when The iron egg opened,
disclosing a silver lining. Sur.
prised at such a discovery, she took
the egg in her hand, aud while ex.
aiming closely, discovered a Sc
cret spring. which she touched, and
the silver lining opened, disclosing
a golden yolk. Examining il
closely, she fouRd another spring,
which, when opened, disclosed
within the golden yolk a ruby
crown. Subjecting that TO an eX-
animation she touched a TINY
spring, and forth came the dIa.
m0nd ring with which he atfianced
her to himself.

Bermuda Grass Pasture.

In a late address Mr.. B. w. Stone.
Of Mississippi, said for a permanent
pasture in The lower South no grass
equals Bermuda. To get the best
results from a Bermuda pasture,
it is important TO Craze enough
stock on 1t 50 as to keep it tender
for cattle, sheep, etc. In the sum
mer time the roots of this grass be.
come very sweet, and 1t also makes
a splendid pasture for hogs. As a
fertilizer it is one of the best. Be
ing always moist and when The
growth IS vigorous, studded with
dew-drops underneath throughout
the dryest, hottest days even its
d~ensely tangled and packed masses
seem to keep the carpeted earth
cool and moist IN hot weather,
Hence The continuous absorption.
condensation and storage Of plant
food from the at atmosphere in the
roots and subjacent soil will make
any Of our worn out Southern fields
again productive.

try, produced by the nov famous
"Arnelt law Formerly our FAR

ants, but since The passage OF the
Arnett bill, Wich made mixed
schools, the cOlnred tenant farmer
Is being slowly driven out. When
ever his lease upon the land s.runs
out. he is quietly informed by bis
white landlord that the latter has
another man for his place, aud.
upon applying tn other farmers IN
the same district. he Is certain TO
be refused. Ia this manner the
white farmers gradually, without
violence or harsh means, remove
the colored people from iheir midst,
until there IS nothing left IN some
entire school districts, and that
law, which was intended TO benefit,
does a positive injury to the color

Such a defensive policy adopted
by a white community in the South
would be deemed by the OhiDanS
sufficient cause tor Federal inter

strengthen the foundation Of our
free institutions than a guarantee
OF honest elections.
