ATlp to ofnoe-seekers.

NEw YOEK, Nov. ao.-The Manhattan

night, and among other prominent men had
Mr.. Cleveland present The presideot-elect
made speech, in which he said that. when
as governor Of the state. they upheld him

him God speed, as he entered upon the las.
stage He further said that the American
people were thinking more of party policies
than distribution Of the spoils, and awarded
poor consolation to the Democratic Office
seekers by saying: In the present mood
Of the people neither the Democratic party
nor any other party can gain aud keep sup

John SUNNY then gave Us a leaf from bis
perscnsl experience. He said that some 20
years before when he was young man, be
ing then on his way across the Negro
Mountain. he called at house in the out
skirts Of the settlement, then occupied by q
lone woman with her family Of children.
She received him with great eordiality and
managed TO detain him for supper. after
which she insisted upon his staying all
night Upon his refusal cloud that boded
mischief passed over her countenance, and
then it was be recollected that she had the
reputation of being witch. He now felt
that going or staying be was at her mercy.
However. as the sky was clear and there bad
been fresh fall Of snow, the full-orbed
moon cheered him with her light, for he
might soon reach safer quarters. Passing
through an aband ned clearing near the
verge Of the forest he heard a noise over
head. and saw large flock Of wild-ducks,
the CLINT Of whose white wings was distinct
ly visible as they wheeled around and final
ly settled on natural mound near by.
Having no gun he SHE'D club among them,
upon which they arose with loud cry and
disappeared. Being evidently the work Of
enchaniment it made him feel uneasy and
hasten all the more to escape the uncanny
influence. He soon arrived at bridle-paih
leading two miles through the forest 10 a
farm house beyond He had scarcely enter
ed the forest when it suddenly became dark
as Egypt, and gradually there broke out ali
around him the dismal wailing of myriads
Of cats Of every kind and condition. OF
course he knew that il was only an Illusion.
bat ell the same every hair on bis head bris-
tied up with terror. He shot like meteor
along the narrow trail, lever stopping until
be had reached his place OF refuge. The
Bext morning he reviewed the scene, but
found no trace Of any living creature except
the tracks he bad made in his hssty flight,
which showed, by the length Of the inter
walls, that he had made better time than he
had ever done before in his life The hour
was now late, aud as there was no one pres
ent to give US the witch's version Of the sto-

What the Farmer Wants.

CoNcoRD. \. II. Nov. I7.-At the national
grange session this forenoon rrporis Of or
Gers were heard. In his report, Mortimer
Whitehead, lecturer, said that during the
year be visited twenty-five states and trav-
eled upward OF twenty thousand miles.
Among the measures which he found most
generally discussed and asked for at this
time IN thegranges Of the country were rural
free msil delivery, postal telegraph and tele-
phone and government Ownship and control

semmination ofneTs. market reports, wealth
er forecasts, &c, TO the Advancement ofsgri-
culture. The road question was discussed.
the lecturer taking the ground that, while
farmers admitted the need and advantage OF
better roads, they should first insist upon an
equalization Of taxes. by which farmers
would not be called upon to pay more than
their fair share Of the expenses Of building
and sustaining better road system.

Eor Johnstown Orphans.

The issuing, few days ago. Of checks ag-
gregating $2O, ,525, representing the annuity
paid to the Orphans Of the Johnstown food,
recalls viyidly to the mind the horrors Of
that catastrophe, as well as one Of the most
magnificent charities the world has ever
known. All but few dollars Of the fund
contributed toward the relief Of those suffer
ers have been liquidated, and the orphans
who originally numbered S39, have had
placed to their credit with the Girard Life
Insurance, Annuity and Trust Company a
fund aggregating $4,000, which viii permit
Of an annual payment of about s75 TO every
orphan until be or she reaches the age of l6
years.
In case of the death ofany of the snnni-
tanis before reaching the prescribed age Of
10 years, the fund TO their credit is transferr-
ed by the trustees TO the trustees Of the Ne
moral Hospital of Jobnstown. During
the past year about $3.50 has been transferr-
ed in that way.
