vornz one Of the French shipbuilders,

voruz, one of the French shipbuilders,
seeing an opportunity tnS n of e maklng
secret to Mr.. Bigelow for twenty
thousand francs. The American Con
sul-this was Mr.. Bigelow's rank at
the time-made the best use of his
information. With the help of Berger,
he contrived to force the Emperor to
take measures which stopped the es-
cape of all the vessels except the Stone
wall, which got out too late to be of
any use to the Confederacy, and was
surrendered to the Spaniards at Ha-
vana. Most OF the story has been told
before. Mr.. Bigelow has retold it
mainly because he wishes to prove that
Napoleon Ill. played fast and loose in
the whole business. He shows clearly
that the Emperor allowed, or even en-
couraged, Mr.. Slidell to begin build
ing the ships in France, on the under
standing that the work was to be done
quietly and without causing scandal.
When the treachery Of the clerk made
concealment impossible, he refused to
embroil himself with the Federal Gov
eminent. 1t was line of conduct en-
inently characteristic of Napoleon I'LL
He was just the man to encourage
French shipbuilding in this way, to try
whether little double dealing could
not help his own extraordinary Mexi-
can adventure, and then to run away
at q pinch. Saturday Re-
pjeC,
Wessington Springs herald. (Wessington Springs, Aurora County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1891, 1889-02-22

neiebbor. but don't produce anything,
Lor5lv Other orchards of one-tenth

Now, what is the matter? Plainly, TINS
orchard wants manure, and unless 1t gets
manure, and a good deal OF it, and that
pretty soon, it will be gone up" Beyond

Mr.. Harris Northern Spy orchard, of
which he wrote in Walks and Talks, IS
a case in point. fully illustrating the
situation. 1t was considered a failure
until he plowed and manfred 1t, and
then it produced big crops of such big
fruit that, if I am not mistaken, less
than 100 of the apples filled barrel.
But it is going to take an immense guam
tity of manure to bring up this loD-acre
orchard like that. or anything near 1t.
