These nerves would never have been ir-
ritable if she had not insisted on
her own way too long in the begin
ming, if she had given them no chance to
get on fire, and then go on exciting them
selves. If she had put the child to bed
alone from the very outset of his career, so
that it was the natural order of things to
him, and he had had the habit established
of quiet sleep and absence of fear from the
first, in ninety-nine cases out of hundred
there would never have been any trouble
of the sort. But if through any idiosyn-
Grassy of the child, or any remissness of her
own, the fear has come upon him, she will
never in all the years remaining have
greater love outpoured upon her than
that child will give her who sees her
lowering over his pillow, moving about
his room, or feels her pressure on the bed
beside him till the drowsy warmth steals
over and wraps senses and Imagination
and all together, and lets her off again to
the duties tnat are less imperative than
care of that child's nerves, to the pleasures
that are less pleasant than the love be
gives her In return.

TERRIBLE FIGHT.
Conflict Between a Sheriff's Posse and
Italian Railroad Laborers.

CATTLETTsBURG (Ky.), September 20th.-
Advices of reliable nature were received
here to-day from Louisiana, KY, which
say that on Twelve Pole creek, near Wayne,
Va, on Friday, terrible fight occurred
between the Sheriff's posse and gang of
Italian railroad laborers, in which several
Italians were killed and a number
wounded.
Some weeks ago contractor on the Nor
folk & Western Railroad named Keogh
went away, having numerous creditors,
among the number being the Italians, and
a new contractor took possession of the
abandoned works and put number of
laborers to work in the cut formerly worked
By the Italians. The latter refused to allow
any one 10 work in the cut until after they
had received their pay for the work done
under Keogh, and they proceeded to drive
out the new laborers.
Three times the new laborers were run
out and the contractor applied TO the Court
for protection, and he was furnished a
posse of about dozen men, headed by the
Sheriff of Wayne county.
On Friday the Sheriff appeared and made
an attempt 10 arrest the Italians, who made
fierce resistance, and an unequal combat
resulted, with forty or more Italians on
the one side, armed with stones, knives and
revolyers, and the Sheriff's men on the
other.
The Italians fought from behind trees,
stones and whatever would shelter mans
body. The firing became general, and
lasted some minutes, during which time
several Italians were killed and several
wounded. The Sheriffs men escaped with
a few severe bruises. About twenty Itali-
ans we're arrested and taken TO jail, the re-
mainder escaping to the woods.
The scene of the fight is some forty or
fifty miles distant from here and is remote
from both railroad and telegraph COM
munication.

ANECDOTES oF DECATUR.
Whimsical Request of a sailor-"Free-
dom of the CITY,"

w uluslCdl hcqucct Va Icc-
dom of the City,"
The gallant Decatur was a sailor to the
hearts core, and loved to tell anecdotes of
the common sailors, one of which follows
In one of the actions before Tripoli, while
fighting hand hand with the captain of
gunboat, Decatur came near being cut
down by Turk, who attacked him from
behind. A seaman named Reuben James,
who was already wounded in both hands,
seeing the risk of his commander, rushed
in and received the blow of the uplifted sa-
Der on his own head. Fortunately, the hon.
est fellow survived to receive his reward.
Some time afterward, Decatur sent for
him on deck, expressed his gratitude for
his self-devotion, in presence of the
crew, and told him to ask for some reward.
The honest tar pulled up his waistband
and rolled his quid, but seemed utterly at
loss what recompense to claim. His
messmates gathered around him, nudging
him with their elbows, and whispering in
his ear:
"He has all the world in a string, and
can get what he pleases;" 'the old man
can deny him nothing" etc. One advised
this thing, another that; double pay,"
double allowance" "a boatswain's BERTH"
"a pocket full of money and full swing
on Shore" etc. Jack elbowed them all
aside, and would have none of their coun-
sci. After mature deliberation he an
nounced the reward to which he aspired;
it was-to be excused from rolling up the
hammock cloths The whimsical request
was, Of course, granted and from that time
forward whenever the sailors were piped
to stow away their hammocks, Jack was
to be seen lettering around and looking
on. with the most gentleman-like leisure
The devoted fellow always continued in
the same ship with Decatur. ~ could
always know the state Of my bile by Jack"
said the Commodore. ''If was in good
humor and wore a pleasant aspect, Jack
would be sure TO heave in sight to receive
a friendly nod; but if was out of humor,
and wore, as / sometimes did, foul
weather physiognomy, Jack kept aloof and
skulked among the other sailors" 1t is
proper to add that Reuben james received
more solid reward for his gallant devo-
tion than the privilege above mentioned,
a pension having been granted him by the
Government
On another occasion Decatur had re-
ceived at New York the freedom of the
city as testimonial of respect and graft
tude. On the following day, he over
heard this colloquy between two of his
sailors:
"Jack," said one, "what is the meaning
of this freedom of the city which they've
been giving to the old MANI"
'Why, don't you know? Why, it's the
right to frolic about the streets as much as
he pleases, kick up row, knock down the
men and kiss the women"
"That's something worth fighting for !"
remarked the other.

do its best, fors it is strong feeder, and
does not mind all the sunshine you can
spare, so long as you keep its feet cool and
moist. The greatest enjoyment of the
flower comes probably to those who raise
it from the seed of blooms fertilized and
crossed by the bees in their own gardens.
The innumerable surprises which come
from such seed are source of interest
which few perhaps comprehend who have
not tried the experiment. Those proposing
to do so should lay the foundation by SOW
ing the best seed procurable-both single
and double. Chater's strain of the latter
is still unrivaled. Sown in garden loan
in March or April, the young plants will
be large enough to transfer into perma-
nent positions by September. A shovel
ful of sand placed around them before
winter closes in is of great benefit, pre-
venting tendency TO rot about the stem
in early spring. The plants will flower
the second year from seed. The seeds
from these first blooms, being carefully
ripened and planted in the same way, will
afford great many novelties If the col
lection is at all numerous.

Additional Particulars OF the Railroad
Accident in Pennsylvania.
READING (Pa.), September 20th.-When
daylight dawned on the scene of last
nights wreck ON the Prilsdelphia and
Reading Railroad, full realization of the
in6escrib3ble horrors were first fully re-
vealed. The engine lay in five feet OF
water. The body of Engineer White was
pinned under the heavy iron work, with
the arms extended in appeal above the
water.
Next lay the tender on its side, then the
baggage and mail cars and passenger
coaches. Timbers were broken and cars
overturned, pinning the unrescued victims
in death embrace at the bottom of the
river.
Searching for bodies continued all night,
and an additional number were taken out.
The body of George r. Ksercher. General
Counsel OF the Reading Railroad, was
taken out early this morning badly dis
figured.
The scene on the banks of the river is
gbastly. The long row of the dead is in
creased as one after another of the bodies
are brought out. 1t is difficult TO move
the ponderous cars, and the thousands who
have focked to the scene are willing to as
sist, but their aid is of very little service
where experienced men are required.
Upto 10 O'Clock this forenoon twenty
bodies had been taken out, and the list of
the injured is now about fifty.

The Hollyhock.

OF all our summer flowers none can
compare in stateliness with the hollyhock.
If the rose is queen, then this dignifed
and commanding plant is her chief mar
shall in the border. Rising each year from
its green base, it attains early in July a
hight of from six to eight feet, and begins
to open along its fine rosette stem the
beautiful flowers which acd SO much to
the brightness of our gardens. Their
colors are very pure, ranging all
the way from white to the darkest
crimson, and including some fine
shades of yellow. On the whole the sim
gle and half-double ones are the most pic
turesque, as they are the most delicate,
though the massive blossoms of the very
double ones convey more fully the idea of
masculine strength. When well grown, in
strong soil, the plant will reach a hight of
eight or nine feet, and is of royal appear
ance, indeed.
The hollyhock, as every one knows, says
the Boston Transcript, is one of the oldest
inhabitants-our grandmothers knew 1t
well. 1t has in fact been in use in Europe
since 1878, when it was introduced to occi-
dental gardens, from its old home IN
China. Though strictly speaking, a bien-
NAL, the hollyhock (Altsea rosed) may
by attention to drainage, winter
covering, etc., and especially by the d.
vision Of the root, be made to con-
tinue indefinitely, It needs deep soil TO
