A Log Worth Having.

The largest log of mahogany ever
brought to this country came recently to
the yards of Nesmith Brothers. Green
point. The tree was felled in the Sierra
Chisee. Guatemala, and fioated three
hundred miles down the Rio de Passion
and the Rio Usumasinta to Laguna.
Mexico. The intention was to bring it
to the Words Fair. but no ship would
take it.
The log was A feet inches long and 60
inches by 56 at the base, and weighed
2l-6S tons. 1t lay at Laguna over year.
Then Captain S. S. Bayles said he would
take it aboard his schooner, the Laguna.
of Port Jefferson, n. Y, if it were cut in
two. This was done, and the log is now
here. 1t would be possible to cut from
this log twenty-eight tables, every one .
inches thick, p feet inches long and 5
feet wide. Every one of these tables th us
made OF single piece of magnificent
wood would accommodate thirty-two
guests without crowding anybody.-New

Great Poetry.

With the poet imagination is the essen
tlal key to expression. The other thing
OF most worth is that which moves him
to expression, the passion of his heart and
soui. Without either of these elements
we can have poetry, tender, animating,
enjoyable and of value in its way, but
without imagination there can be no poetry
which is great. Possibly we can have
great poetry which is devoid of passion,
but great only through its tranquilizing
power, through tones that calm and
strengthen, yet do not exalt and thrill

SMALL FRUITS.

The small fruits are given excellent
cultivation in the spring, and enterpris-
ing fruit-growers are liberal with manure
and fertilizers on certain kinds, but after
the crops are harvested there is often
neglect of the field or patch Until spring
apDears again. This is not so much the
case with strawberries as with raspber-
ries and black berries, which are grown
extensively in some localities surround
ing this city. In Pennsylvania it is nee
essary to layer the canes, by covering
them with earth, first bending them for
that purpose, but in Southern New Jer-
sew this precaution is not necessary, as
the canes seldom become winter killed,
nor is Inulching required for strawber-
ries in that section. The profit from
small fruits is large during favorable
seasons, compared with grain-growing,
but there is greater neglect of the rasp-
berry and black berry fields il the sum-

TIE RIGHT 10 THE ROAD.
A Supreme Court Judge Defines Ri
 cycles as Vehicles.

ST. PAUL. Oct. 29.-In decision just handed down, the supreme court gives bicycle riders all the rights of the gen. eral thoroughfares granted to other ve- hicles.
 The test case was that of N. A. Thompson, whose horse ran away at the sight of q bicycle ridden by w. M. Dodge. The buggy of Mir. Thompson was demolished and Mir Thompson in- jured. The latter brought suit for damages, alleging that the bieyclist had no right to the road. Judge Buck says in his decision against Mr. Thompson:
 Bicycles are vehicles used so exten7 siyely for convenience, recreation and business, and the riding of them IT on the public highways in the ordinary manner as is now done is not unlawful nor prohibited. Bee use the plaintiff chooses to drive q horse htched to 8 carriage does not give to him the right to dictate to others their node of con- veyance upon public highway where the rights Of each are rquai.

THE SILEER DOLLAR.

A recent issue of the Courier Jousnal of which the distinguished Henry Watterson is editor, sets forth the cause and necessity for an international agreement for the fix. ing of a ratio between gold and sil- yer. Mr. Watterson is Democrat whose loyalty to the people and his party cannot be questioned, and we commend what he says to the care full perusal of our readers, and es- pecially to the Little Rock Free Silver Club. The Coarier-Jouraal says:
 1.-The purchasing power of the sill yer dollar, which is now equal to that of the gold dollar, would be re- duced if the present policy of the Treasury were abandoned. Silver dollars would remain a legal tender. but that would not preserve their purchasing power. They would have the same debt-paying power as gold, but no debts then would be paid in gold. Silver, or it's equival- ent, would be exclusively used to pay debts, and would have for that purpose the same power as at pres ent; but when used to purchase com
 
 modities it's value would be reduced because the price of goods, in silver would be raised. The purchasing power of a dollar is at present the anne as that of B 2 grains of fine eold, whether in bullion or gold coin. There are 511f grains fine silver in . dollar, but it requires about twice ehst amount Of silver bullion to pur- cnase z3 r grains of gold bullion.
 hls simply means that we are .sAnG the gold standard. If we had 6s silyer standard, the purchasing
 ser q ne dollar would De s71I
 E1ins of silver bullion, which at

 Again the lines of battle are drawing the issues clearly presented All eyes are turned to this empire state. The ranks must be closed for victory in this hour of peril to party and country. Then it will need no prophet to foretell the triumphs under the matchless leader, who. at all times and under all circum- stances declared am Democrat David B. Hill.
