The First Log Cabin In Kentucky.

The fiourishing little city of Harrods-
burg, the county seat of Mercer county,
KY, was the scene in the latter part of
the last century Of some very exciting
episodes in the history Of the early set
tiers in the young state. On June 16,
1774, Captain James Harrod of Virginia,
who had brought a party Of settlers to
the new country, laid of town site at
Big Spring Camp, where they had erected
the first cabin ever built in Kentucky.
They allotted to each man half acre
lot and ten acre out lot. The towns
first name was Harrodstown, but later
this was changed to Harrodsburg. A
clearing was made in the east end of
the town boundary, and here it was that
John Hartman planted and raised the
first corn that was known to have been
grown in the state. Only few weeks,
after this suspicious beginning Of the
towns promoters four Of Harrod's men
were ambushed by Indians. Jared Cow
an was killed. The other men escaped,
only one Of them being injured. Louis

WANTING.

THE new year has brought back the same old
blooms, ss@s
The daisies for the ieas,
The bluebells sweet, and the cowslips' piumes.
. And the pale anemones,
And again with the golden fires Of spring
The woods and groves are bright,
And the same old songs the blackbirds sing
In the apple orchards white.
And the dawns are bright and the ewes are fair
AS e'er in the days Of old.
And the fragrant hawthorn scents the air.
And the gorse Is of FURNISHED gold,
And the wind has come DER the southern seas
From shores where the nereids play,
And as of old do the brigand bees
On their clover blossoms stray.
There's an amber sea in the faroff west
| Where the hills and the sunset meet,
And the hymn Of the throstle by its nest
Is tender and clear and sweet,
And wait and watch, as in days Of yore,
By the ivied trysting tree.
But, ali, never, never, never more
Can my sweetheart come to mel

.'The Pyramid Limp

"The pyramid limp, as it has come
to be called, is that state Of body which
falls upon one for two or three days aft
er making the ascent Of the pyramids.
One is so much pulled and pushed at
the time that little or no Inconvenience
is felt. There is no sign of soreness Of
joint or muscle until after one has
slept, and then the trouble begins to
brew; the second day Of that man or
woman is worse than the first; the eli
max is reached at the end of the second
or beginning Of the third day, and from
that time The patient begins slowly to
recover. Cairo Correspondents.

W. F. Haynes, of Lyons, nine miles

children, two boys and one girl.
DR.. Durham, who was in atten-

INTERIOR, S. D., Nov. 27, 1866
The winter has set in and we have
already had some pretty tough
weather on stock the last two weeks.
If this state of affairs should con-
tinue for some time yet, it will be
anything but encouraging for the
average COW man.
We were visited on Thanksgiving
day by one of the severest kind of a
snow storm which lasted thirty
hours at least and some loss in
stock is looked for.
Mr.. l.. D. Turner is expected in
at any time with his bunch of sheep
which he is trailing in from Edge
mont, S. D.
Rev. Homer, of Gordon, Neb.,
teaches the White River school this
winter.
This community is enjoying re-
ligous services every Sunday and
also Sunday school, for which those
in charge, as well as pupils, are en-
titled to much credit.
Some wolves got into Mr.. John
sons bunch of sheep a few nights
since and scattered them pretty bad
ly. He has found all but about zoo
head which are still at large.

Mr.. Charles Thompson brought in
six grey wolves the other day for
which he received forty-eight dol
lars in bounty. A few such wolf
hunters like Charley would make it
interesting for Mr.. Gray Wolf.
Mr.. Frank Turner and Miss
Bertha Swart's were united in u
riage on the 18th at Clinton, Neb.
Mr.. John Livingstone and Miss Eda
Porch were united in marriage at
Parnell, Mo-, a few days ago. Both
young couples have taken up their
abode on the river. We all join in
wishing them a happy journey
through life.

Big Bend.

Big Bend.
To the west of Rapid City ten
miles and one mile south, on or
around Rapid creek, is a place which
has borne the name of Big Bend
for the space of sixteen years. In
1880 a New York company patented
ffty-six acres including therein the
Fort Meade Tunnel, the creek bed,
and dam just above where the Pac-
tola road crosses the creek. This is
a mineral entry and in shape, as it
follows the creek, resembles a. very
timber worm with a very large
head, or perhaps more properly
speaking, a tadpole with his head
looking to the north. 1t is in and
around this vicinity that people in
sist and persist in calling Big Bend.
There is n inhabitant at Big Bend
proper (f it is proper to call Fort
Meade Tunnel, Big Bend) and that
is Mr.. Austin Agard, who has de-
voted the most of his time to placer
mining in the past few years.
There is no p%ostofice here. Our
school district has adopted the name
of Big Bend lately and we have a
good school, presided over by Miss
Caroline Newman.

THE HoRsA EXPEDITION.
Supreme Court Confirms Sentence Of Captain
and Gives Mates New Trial.

Washington, May 25.-~The supreme
court OF the United States, today. In an
opjnion read by Chief Justice Fuller,
decided the cases Of Wiborg ct al. VS..
The United States, involving the Horsa
Cuban expedition. affirming the Judg
ment OF the district court for Pennsyl-
vania, sentencing Capt Wiborg to i'm
the expedition, and reversing II as TO
Petersen and Johansen, mates Of the
vessel.
The chief justice said that the arms
and men carried by the Horsa consti-
tuted a military expedition within the
meaning of the neutrality laws. The
individuals constituting the body need
not be armed to come within the in
tent Of the law. Although the statute
was a penal one, said. the justice, 1t
was to receive a reasonable construc-
ton. the same as that given other
statute governing domestic affairs. All
the elements of a military expedition
were present on the Morsa
The CHIEF justice said that the evil
dence did not tend to show that the
mates had such knowledge Of the err
rand of the Horsa at the time the ves-
sci left Philadelphia to warrant judg-
ment against them. and il was reversed
with instructions to give them new
trial. Mr.. Justice Harlan dissented
from the judgement as to the defend
ant.
