There are some people foolish enough
to laugh at the homely virtues of q
farm life. They are fortunately few,
and they are are fortunately growing
fewer; but il is well sometimes to look
mt the list of the great men who came
UP from the farm-not all OF them, for
that would fill thousand volumes, but
some of the most notable ones that fash
into mind in moment.
Nearly three-fourths of the men who
have been chosen by the people for the
great offices OF the nation are men who
were early familiar with wooded hills
and cultivated fields. For example,
Washington, Lincoln, Grant, Garfield,
Hamlin, Greedy, Tilden, Hayes, Blaine,
Harrison and many others almost equal
" conspicuous in current events of liv-
ing memory. Among journalists, Henry
watterson spent his early life in rural
Kentucky, and Murat Halstead was
born and lived on farm in Ohio; w,
H. Vanderbilt was born in a small New
Jersey town, and early engaged in the
business of ship chandlery; Russell
Sage was born in New York village
Jay Gould spent his early years on hi;
fathers farm in New York State; Whit
tier and Howells spent their youths il
villages, the former dividing his timt
between farm employment and his stud
les. Follow the list out yourself, ant
see how long it will become.

spArN's REPLY VERY SATISFACTORY.
Washington, Nov. 9.-The full text of
Spain's reply to the Woodford note was
read in tie-csbiaet nesting today. In
stead of being at all warlike it was re.
garded by the cabinet as very satisfactory
and calculated to allay any fear of hos
tile outbreak.
The cabinet gave considerable attention
to the l.e-bound Behring sea whale fleet.
Two plans have been decided upon, one
is to send the Bear from Seattle, which
cannot be gotten ready for two weeks,
and the other is to send the Thrasher, 8
whaling vessel now at San Francisco.
The Thrasher can be provisioned at once
and sent Immediately.
