HORACE GREELEY.
B0zar,

Greeley inherited from his Scotch
Irish ancestors plainness Of speech.
Il can" he used to say, write better
slang than any editor in America" He
knew the value of words. The tradi
tions called him profane, and nova
days n rarely hears q story of Gree
ley which does not turn upon some
quaint archaic use Of profane phrase.
Yet he was far from being profane-
was pure minded, and of proper speech.
as a daily intercourse Of years ena5 lies
me to testify He was impatient Of
ignorance or frivolity. He had a com
planning way, generally amusing from
it's quaintness, apt to become petuiance
if anything leased. He had the Ca
pacity Of spontaneous aversion formed
opinions of people by a kind Of second
sight. I knew n noted man whom
he di8liked, as well as I could make
out, for no other reason than the color
of the hair. He never forga7e another
for being a college graduate. Life and
it's employments we're an earnest pur-
pose; there should be 20 triaing by the
wayeide, no lolling over vanities, no
giving way to meretricious oppetites;
and therefore the greatest of crimes
was drink. Aman's troth was sacred
it was the human expression Ct a
divine attribute; and therefore, next
to drink, there was no crime so great
as marriage infdelisy. His dislike to
to tobacco, as to wine, was an indica-
ton Of personal discomfort. There
was no virtue quite as desirable as
thrift, and thrift was best served by
small salaries. The material h8ppi-
ness of mankind was a constant care.
The Jersey marshes that stretch from
Hoboken to Newark distressed him.
is there no way-are there no lessons
in the economic conditions Of Holland
to teach u5hOw to reclaim these wasted
square miles of marsh and overflow
and make them into wholesome, en-

inquiry. His dislike Of slavery, when
you sifted it down, was rather an
earnest OF sympathy with the white

WOMAN'S

Miss S. E. Fuller, of New York City,
is the first woman to receive q govern
ment contract for engraving. She is a
practical wood engraver and prepared
the first manual of instruction in
that art.
Miss Lilly E Rem has for the past
three years lived in the east end OF
London, and has interested herself
greatly in the. welfare of the children
and young girls in that quarter. Per
haps her best work has been in her
sewing classes, where she teaches girls
from nine to fourteen to cut and make
the garments for which their instruc-
tor provides the material.
Work is to be commenced again on
the monument Over the grave of Mary,
mother of Washington, at Fredericks-
burg, Md. A long lawsuit, involving
the tomb, has recently been decided,
and the Martha Washington Monu-
ment Association, composed Of ladies
from all the States, has given out the
contract for the completion of the
shaft, which is to be fifty feet high.
Among the Sierras there is a woman
stage driver, Mrs. H, J. Langdon, who
owns a line that extends several hun
dred miles through the mountains.
She can manage a four or six in hand
as skillfully as any man, and she EN-
ploys scores of horses and vehicles,
and carries the United States mail as
well as merchandise and passengers.
She conducts two or three other
branches Of business as well as her
stage line.

generous and give the factory half.
That would give US for the cotton and
wool $1.75. instead of Is cents. Let's
Continue to be generous, as we always
have been and give the merchant half
to retail the PANTS to the trade, and we
have 81 ! cents per pound for the
material.
1t does look like they ought to be
willing for US to have ~one-foursh, for
without us they would make nothing.
Remember, this bale Of cotton and
wool mixed half and half, say it weighs
400 pounds, this is about the average
weight; cotton is supposed to weigh
500 pounds and wool 800 pounds to the
bale. Now this bale of cotton and
wool at prevailing prices would bring
in the market, SIS for the wool and Is
for the cotton, making Sol. This bale
Of raw material manufactured into
pants would bring 81, 400. Deducting
SCI for the raw material, leaves 81, $40
for those who handle it after it leaves
the hands Of the producer.
To cap the climax, the merchant will
argue that this is just, by saying that
the machinery which manufactures
the material into pants costs $40, 600.
They shoot like they have been
taught to shoot, that is, t shoot the
farmer without a correct statement;
for one factory will DO up the cotton
and wool raised on 800 farms. These
800 farms of 100 acres make 80. 600
acres, which at $40 per acre makes
$500 900. This looks very much like
it costs more to make the breeches
than it does to raise the wool and
cotton.
The mer chants should look this mat
ter up with the farmer, for they must
go together. If the farmer does well,
for his trade comes from the farmer.
If my writing will cause you to look
into this matter, [ may write again
and suggest some renedy.-J. W.

BE NATURAL IN MANNER.
True Politeness Always Pays Due Re
gard to the Rights of Others.

Manner and manners r not pre-
cisely synony NOUS. One may possess
| ceremOniOus manners and in conjunc-
ton with these have a manner which
antagonizes the very people whom the
elaborate manners are inlended to
please. A boorish person may by dint
of careful limitation acquire a venee of
courtesy, good SO far as it goes. but
when ell Is said only veneer, not the
solid polish bearing wood. a person
ignorant Of social usages and unskilied
in the cOnventionalities OF the period
may be distinguished by a manner
essentially charming Manner is what
we are, so to speak, III the grain, IC is
individuality. 1t is the outshining o.
the soul. Manners are acquired by
association, 0y contact, by slow de-
grees, through several generations,
and by laborious effort, line upon line,
precept upon precapt, in each genera
ton. We observe a similarity in the
manner and in the manners of certain
families. Sometimes servants take on
a likeness Of manner 10 those with
whom they live, as children do, per
sonality being always q. for e and
carrying with it impressiveness OF some
sort. Both children and servants re

while manner comes to them, as il
were, without their knowledge.
Occasionally one meets gently bred.
elderly person who has not adopted
certain forms and modes which are at
present i'll vogue, and who innocently
fails TO meet the requirements of good
fOrm-a thing to be regretted, because
the greater should every where include,
the less, and q we'll bred manner should
presuppose perfect manners. At all
times the requirements of politeness
are founded upon good sense, upon
kindness Of heart, upon due regard for
rights of others. The rude, the brus
que. the abrupt, trample on the sensi
bilities of their friends, IS we'll as in
wade propriety, sometimes defending
themselves as natural, and declaring
that they abhor affectation and adore
sincerity. They appear not to recog
nize the fallacy in this. A natural
manner should Of all manners in the
world, be sincere. Sincerity d cs not
imply brutality. Afectation is less
heinous an offense than cruelty, and
cruelty exists wherever n person
needlf - wounds another.
Ga4uo manner do much to oil the
machinery of life at home and in the
community. 1t costs little effort to
say Il thank you" and IF you
please, to acknowledge every kindness
as q favor worth appreciation; but
were it otherwise, effort III this direc-
tion would be we'll repaid. Espe tally
in our intercourse with children or
with the aged, with those who are in
any way at a disadvantage as com
pared with ourselves, should we be
careful to exercise a cordial politeness.

the world, it will influence our man

A LEGEND.

Members of the Farmers Alliance
will appreciate the story of THE
Farmer and the Money Lender" from
Indian Fairy Tales" by Joseph
JACOBS The farmer owns a wishing
shell, which the money lender steals
The farmer then agrees that the money
lender shall have double of all he re
ceives himself on condition that the
shell is returned.
From that time, &c matter what he
gained by the power Of the conch, the
money lender gained double. and the
knowledge that this was so preyed
upon the farmers mind day and night,
80 that h9 had 10 satisfaction out, OF
Gnything.
At last there came a very dry season,
so dry that the farmers crops with
cred for want Of rain. Then he blew
his cOnch and wished for q we'll to
water them, and, 10! there vas the
we'll, but the money lender had two
two beautiful new wells! This was too
much for any farmer % stand, and
our friend brooded over it till at last
a bright idea came into his head. He
seized the conc, blew it loudly and
cried Ou-, go Ram I wish to be blind
Of Il eyer And so he was, in a
twinkling, but the money lender, Of
course, was blind Of both, and II try
ing to steer his way between the two
new wells he fell into one and was
drowned. Now this rue story shows
that a farmer once got the better Of a
money lender-but ONLY by losing one
of his eyes.-ChGcago Tribune.
