LINES TO MISS BELANY OF GAR
FIELD.

(BY PROF. S. G. BLOWN.
NV soul was there enchanted,
While listening to your song
That voice e'er since has haunted,
Each day it grows more strong
Your singing was delightful,
Even now hear that swell
And all who heard your singing
Said, she sung her solo well.
Miss George Simpson, teacher in
Hillsdale School, sailed last week for
Germany, to be absent several months.
Decoration Day was most beauti-
full and everyone seemed to be going
to or returning from some one OF
the cemett ries in this section of the
city. The town wore its holiday
dress. and patriotism seemed to in
wade every breast. The only dissat-
isfied gentleman was an old veteran
who having been designated as one
of the committee to decorate the
graves failed to participate owing
to misunderstanding of the date.
Mr.. W. 81. Young, one of ou
best known beaIX, seems remarka-
bly serious of late. What can be
the matter
Miss Blanche Smoot, who has
been i'll for some time, has become
so much worse as to necessitate her
confinement in St. Elizabeth's In
sane Asylum.
Mr.. G. Scot is still in town with
his bright smile and Chesterfeldian
bow
Miss Lottie Duval was in town
last week. Her school closes in a
few days.
The concert given by the Happy
Circle, an association of young ladies
of this village, was quite successful
and netted them quite a sum.
Last Friday the children who par
ticipated were treated to a feast OF
delicacies best relished by the
youthful palate, at the residence OF
Mrs. Anna Quarles. Among the
many adults present were, Misses.
Quarles, Hill, Pleasant, Thomas,
Mrs. Fraction, Messrs. Scott,
Quarles and others.
The colored members of the local
Catholic church, through Mr.. E..
Forrest and Mr.. J. Bowser, made
their retiring priest a handsome
present.
The local schools are preparing
for the show days of the year. Our
schools are well managed and favor
ably compare with any in the Dis
trict.

Rev. James E. Mason, D. D., has
been in the city several weeks raising
funds for the monument that is being

ory of the late Frederick Douglass.
The Trustees of the ColoreC
Schools, it is said, will designate day
in the Colored Schools for the purpose
of taking up collection for the monu
ment.
1t is hoped the trustees will not de-
lay.
DR.. Mason feels very much encour-
aged at the reception he has met with
and hopes to raise the required amount
in short time.

(From The National Protest,

(From The National Protest)
There is no man connected with the
colored press of the country better
known than w. Calvin Chase of the
Washington BEE. He is known as the
great "kicker," and he has made
Washington a very uncomfortable
place, for many of the negro leaders.
who thought that the National Capitol
could not exist without their import
ant presence. Great improvement has
been made in The BEE within the past
year and its carrying more advertise
ments than any negro paper published
Mr.. Chase is a man of energy, push
and determination and never gives uT

Managua seems TO have been made
the capital Of Nicaragua because the two
principal cities, Leon and Granada,
were always fighting for the honor
Leon approaches the most closely to the
true metropolitan character. II covers
wide extent of country. Its public
buildings are admittedly the finest in
Central America, and, besides showing
q greater variety of race in its inhablt-
ants, it is the abode of the old aristoc-
racy. Then it has gone in for progress
and education, and though it strikes one
as q trifle incongruOus TO see even rail
way station in a place liko this, to say
nothing Of the other adjuncts Of civili-
cation, there is no blinking the fact
that these same adiunots are there, and
that they represent an advance. And
the cathedral of cut stone is a magnifl-
cent structure, covering an entire square,
and fronting the whole width of the
grand plaza.
From the roof l saw the wide Pacific
shining like a thin rim of silver on
the western horizon, while stretching
away to the northeast l followed with
out shifting my eyes the line Of Los
Marabios, which are nine volcanoes,
some of them as perfectly ,apered as an
Egyptian pyramid. Managua has a GER
tain advantage in being situated on the
lemon colorod lake Of the same name
and in being the seat of government. -

A curious eale of Ole Bull is told in
a recent book ON violins and violinists.
1t seems that in 1881, being then 81
years Of age the famous violinist wan
dered to Paris The cholera was raging
and Mahbran singing. He went to hear
her, and his landlord decamped with
his possessions, including his violin.
He was speedily reduced to extremity.
During the last dinner that he was able
70 pay for ne made the acquaintance Of
remarkable man. To this stranger
Ole Bull con6ded his miseries. At the
conclusion the stranger said abruptly,
Well, / will do something for you if
you have courage and francs " II
have both, " said Bull. "Then 90 TO
Frascati's tonight at 10 o'clock, pass
through the first room, go into the sec
ond, where they play rouge ct noir, and
when new taille begins, put your 8
francs on rouge and leave it there. "
Bull did as directed, and when his
francs had become 400 took them up
after an episode with woman who at
tempted to take them. Red continued
to win, and had he left his money longer
he would have won an independent sum.
The stranger, who was present at his ell
bow, was Vidocq, the French detective,
already European celebrity.

The tailor's trade was only permitted
90 far as it was necessary for clothing,
but so far as it or any other trade mir
istered to luxury pride and arrogance
it was abjured as "rootless work. "
Thus they could not be goldsmiths, sill.
versmiths or jewellers. Nor would they
make any weapon Of war.
The trades chiefly pursued by the
Moravian Anabaptists were clothmak-
ing, cutlery, millkeeping and shoemak-
ing. In the fields and in the woods and
in the vineyards many found healthy
and happy occupation. Others worked
as carpenters, joiners, cabinet makers,
masons, blacksmiths, cartwrights, tan
ners, saddlers, potters-thorU was, in
fact. hardly useful trade the cummuni-
ties did not practice. Strange 90 say,
nothing is said of printing Probably
they feared to attract the notice of their
imperial prosecutors. The Moravian
Anabaptists, very different from those
who all over the German empire and
elsewhere commenced the movement,
followed the model held up in the
words, che shall not cry, nor lift up
or cause his voice to be heard in the
streets" They spoke Of themselves as
''the quiet in the land
In clothmakiDg and cutlery they OBJ
tanned such rcpute that at their final ex-
pulsion the authorities made special ef-
forts to infUse some kind Of energy into
''the Christians. who hitherto had
not been able to compete with the Ana
baptist cloth workers. It was even pro.
posed to invite Dutch cloth workers into
the country. But il was by good
work" and the overcoming OF adverse
conditions that the Ananptist commu.
mites had. attained their ominence. -

PRINCIPLES OF PROFI TABLE
FARMING.

The attention Of our readers is called
to a most valuable little book, entitled
"Principles of Profitable Farming !"
We do not know of any book on the
subject that gives to the farmer 80
much practical information in the same
short space. In this book experiments
are described upon different soils and
crops, and the farmer is instructed
how to re fertilizers properly, in or
der to ll 0cure the largest yields.
The reading matter is divided into
three parts, as follows: Part de-
scribes some of the important results
first obtained by Prof. Wagner, Direc
tor of the Experiment Station at Darn
stadt, Germany, through green manur
ing by means of potash phosphate fer
til 4tion. Part II gives an account of
the Experimental Farm at Southern
Pines, North Carolina, which is under
the auspices of the North Carolina
State Horticultural Society, acting in
CO operation with the State Expert
ment Station. The object of the ex-
periments conducted at this farm is to
ascertain the relative proportions Of
the three principal fertilizing ingredi
ents needed by various fruit and veget-
able crops, viz potash, phosphoric
acid and nitrogen. Part III is sum-
mary of many important results OBJ
tained by the use of potash in expert:
ments conducted at experiment sta
tions in the United States.
The foregoing outline will give the
reader some idea of the scope and
character of this little book. All the
facts are stated in clear and concise
language and the principles of profit
able farming are set forth in a prac
tical way. The book, which is full of
illustrations and neatly printed and
bound, is free of charge, card ad,
dressed to the Garman Kali Works, SO
Nassau st., New York, N. Y, being all
that is necessary to secure copy. No
intelligent farmer should be without it.

AGRICULTURE.

North Carolina has the soil and eli
mate, why not have improved farmsf
No man will make a success of dairy
ing unless willing to look after small
things.
Young trees may be trimmed in Sep
tember as we'll as any time. The idea
10 to remove the branches that inter
ter'S and the sprouts.
Water sprouts on apple trees are
easII pulled away at this season. They
are useless and suck away the sap in
Considerable quantities.
At the recent annual meeting of the
Netional Apple Shippers Association
al reports and estimates pointed to
atger crop of apples than ever before
recorded.
Lat Young stock, as we'll as the milk
cows, have access to salt and fresh
Tater. If salt is not where they can
Rret il whenever wished salt them regu-
larly at least twice week.
Every farmer should have little
farm library. Bound volumes OF agrl
cultural papers are good, and there
should be a few good text books which
teach the b c's of the business also
books upon the crops which are your
speciality.
OF course nobody should be elected
to Office simply because he ls farmer,
but there is plenty of material for hon
est. sensible, capable law makers to be
found among the agricultural ranks,
and this country is just beginning to
discover the fact.
The waste in the orchard should De
looked after closely, and that which Is
wormv and defective fed to the hogs.
The old process of sun drying or the
still better one of evaporation, or the
preserving, should all go on no"' 50
that nothing goes to waste.
Ren F. Darlington, of Texas, says
B established cross between the
ord and Durham would make the
beef steer. By using pure bred
&es ON both sides he thinks that IN,
ide of ten years distinct type OF beer
title could be established that would
actly fill the bill for this "esEefn
ge country.
