She Was Dazz1ed.

They tell good story at the expense
of Col. Moore, one of the members of
the Everett Piano company, and no one
enjoys it better than he does. While he
was resident of Colorado some years
ago he was appointed a member of the
staff Of Governor Grant, and on the day
the governor was inaugurated the staff
appeared in resplendent uniforms, that
of Col. Moore being further embellished
with the medals he had won for distin-
guished bravery in the Crimean war, for
he had served there when mere lad.
The colonel is a large, handsome man,
and with his uniform and medals is
pretty apt to make considerable of a dis
play. On this occasion, when the in
auguration was over, he called upon a
friend while still in uniform. A little
girl answered the bell, and as she went
back into the house with eyes wide open
in astonishment her mother asked,
"Who is it?" to which she replied, 81

KeeDinD the Cl, jckeu Rack.

When the chicken incubator show
was here, a young man infatuated with
the idea purchased one and placed
therein about thirty eggs. According
to the rule they were to be Matched the
I'd of the month. But it appears that
the young mans watchful wife observed
fine brown egg giving way under
pressure, as it were, on the 1st of the
month, and thinking the chick was ap-
pearing prematurely, she promptly
pasted some brown paper over the aper-
ture in the egg and with self satisfied
smile awaited the coming of her hus-
band. He declares now that there is
nothing like woman for Ingenuity

The Oldest Place in America.

~'Do you know the Oldest place in all
American said Gen. John B. Hender-
son, of st. Louis, to q circle of friends.
81 don't mean the oldest town in the
country or on the continent, but the land
first found on the western hemisphere.
No? Well, thought not. 1t is Mount
Marcy, in the Adirondack mountains.

ured out that Mount Marcy was the
point of land that made its appearance
first above the water when the western
hemisphere was evolved. Chicago Her

EVENING AT THE FARM.

Pale twilight rises and with hurried pace
Fast follows where the red sub kissed the sand;
With misty touch conceals his last warm trace,
And blows her softening dusk breath oer the
land
The drowsy bird note dies upon the breeze;
Shy howrets lock their faces from the dew;
The shadow falls no longer from the trees
Where sport tired lambkin rests, or sober ewe
The barnyard clamor ceases, kline are fed:
The soil fecked field horse munches in his stall;
The watch dog turns him to his straw lined shed,
Nor deaf through sleep to faintest danger call
Within the farm house porch in dreamy mood,
The day worn toiler takes his well earned rest
While huddling youngsters watch with round
eyes shrewd
To catch the dustman in his evening quest,
It is the hour for silent spirit bands
To speed with white winged prayer now per-
feet grown,
AS days king Labor, folds his weary hands,
Nor yet has beckoned Slumber to his throne.

A Wooden Horse Collar.

venture to ask you If wooden horse
collars have ever been tried, and if not
why not? The present style of collar is
heating, and very apt for that reason
and on account of its roughness to cause
sores on the neck of the horse. Zinc
collars have been tried, with what re-
suit do not know; but it seems to me
that wooden collar might be made
which would be light, smooth and cool,
on the same principle as the Mcclellan
saddle tree, which for cavalry purposes
has never been surpassed.-C New

THE WORST OF NEWSPAPER
CRANKS.
! n. Y. Evening POST

II. Y. Evening Post.
The amount of notice which
has been taken 10th at the
south and at the North, but
especially at the South, of the
frantic ratings of Colonel Elliot
+. Shepard in his Mail and Ex-
press about the unveiling Of the
Lee monument at Richmond re-
dects positive discredit on the
national character. We do not
believe a single person of in
telligenCe at the North who
knows anything # the Colonel
takes him seriously i'll private,
Or attaches any Importance to
his utterances, either sacred or
profane. The one thing which
makes rational men take notice
of II IN is his possession o. a
newspaper, and the amount Of
notice this secures even for his
widest rawlings is really dis
courgihg social symptom. 1t
shows that the old primitive
tendency to worship stocks and
stones, and all sorts OF idola-
trous substances, still exists
among us side by side with the
Spencerian philosophy, and III
the full light Of the latest
Biblical criticism. An ancient
Jew squatted down i'll front Of
q brass calf and burning incense

a spectacle than q modern
American lawyer, or broker, or
editor, or min. ster gravely perus-
ing and weighing the Colonies
printed lucubrations or listen
ing to his religious eXegesis, all
because he OWLS a newspaper
and can therefore put into it
any tomfoolery he chooses to
pay for. We are especially
moved to make these observa-
tons by having sent to us the
report of a whole sermon
preached by the Rev. Thomas
Dixon, Jr.. yesterday, on Sec
Iiona] Journalism," of which
/ the ColonePs rant furnished the
real text, though the nominal
one was t ken from the New
Testament. Our advice to Mr..
Dixon, and all other men with
serious occupations, is to let the
Colonel severely alone. The
more they are excited by his
fOllieS the better he Is pleased.

Resolved, That the North Car

What is a tattler? A vile leech

happiness. A black, greedy
vulture, feasting upon the car
ron Of society. A busy-body
who listens gleefully to any
thing harsh you may say of
your n eighbor, neither pettishly
or in a joke, and then carries it
magnified and patched up to
suit himself, and pours tscorch-
ing hot into the ears perhaps of
your best friend, and succeed
ing in getting him or her to say
something equally as harsh,
returns to you laden with his
precious burden of strife and
adds fuel to the smoldering fire.

\ CARD.

Mr. Editor: | ask space for d short
card with reference TO the much
talked of petition from citizens of
Sampson, to their representative in
the last Legislature, requesting them
to vote for railroad commission
bill, having been requested by quite
number Of gentlemen to say
whether or not | received such a
petition.
Replying to Senator Kerr in your
issue of the 10th inst, you say that
you signed the petition as President
of the County Alliance, certifying
that it was unanimously passed by a
body representing 1900 citizens of
the county, and that you instructed
the County Secretary to toward
copies of the petition to Messrs.
Kerr, Stevens and Murphy, that
you were in Raleigh soon after the
petitions were sent, and that Mess.
Stevens and Murphy had received
their copies.
Let me say in all kindness, that
think there must be some mistake
about this, SO far as am concerned,
for if the county Secretary in obedi-
ence 20 your instructions signed by
any meDIber ofcitizens of Sampsl n
requesting me to vote for a railroad
cOmission bill, it certainly failed to
reach its destination, for | have
never seen it.
write with no desire to partici-
pate in discussion, between Senator
Kerr and yourself as to the advisa-
bility of establishing railroad COM
mission, my individual views on
this as on all other subjects which
came before us while in Raleigh,
were secondary to the wishes of the
people who elected me, and / be-
lieved they were in earnest when
they said in their conventions plat
form of principles (article y that
they were opposed to the creation
of any new salaricd offices, and ! re-
ceived no petition which would re-
lieve me from this obligation to the
party which nominated and elected
me. The House Journal will show
that voted ON all three readings for
the Cook railroad commission bill,
which provided for no additional
salaries and hence no increased
taxation. WIN. Il. MURPHY.
