Garfield's farm nnd farming and the facts elicited nny bo interesting to many roadi'-VH, Tim farm emiluins 155 &ores, all under cultivation, except a few acres of timber. I t lies tw.inty-fivo miles east of Cleve"hind, fronting on the old wagon road from Cleveland to Buffalo, and the Lake Slioro railroad runs through it. Tlie .soil is a rich, sandy loam, and is very productive. Tho fences are kept in good repair, and are the best in the township. When Gen. Garrield purchased the form, about eight- years ago, there were eight acrei of &wamp land near the center of it, which were consitlereVl almost worth-; less. Tha General's knowledge of en-

! giin-eriiig here came into practical use, ! and, muter his personal supervision, the ! swninp was drained. It is now very valuable, land. Besides the drains fur- : nish a const nut and alnmdant suwolvof

.uiro water, which, by means of a hydruulic ram, is forced up to the elevated site of the house and barns, whore it iS used. The very simple and inexpensive khid of water-works is a model farm improvement, which might be adopted with advantage by many farmers. When Gen. Garfield made this improvement it was much talked about nmoug the farmers in this vicinity, and many visitors came to see it. One old farmer in Geauga county heard of the hydraulic mm, but got a wrong idea of its nature. He camo to see the General

Gen. Garfield has the reputation among his neighbors of being b good farmer one of the best, indeed, in thi region, where good farmers abound. They tell me that he manifesto a deep .f interest in everything pertaining to agn-, culture and stock-raising. He finds . recreation in farm work, and personally takes a hand in it whenever he can find h time to do so. Although he has three men employed on the farm, and several servants about the house, he is in the habit of doing any little chores or er-. ' . rands that may came in his yay It is 'V .' not an uncommon thing for him to go to ' the postoffice, half a mile away, on - : horseback, and carry home on the pai- ' .'-. Buel of his saddle a large and well-filled ; r -:i mail bag. His plain and farm-like manr ;" ners and habits greatly endear him to the countiy people about him. ' It is unjust to mention the other ani-.,. . mals on Gen. Garfield's farm and say nothing of his big black Newfoundland dog, "Veto," He is a very kind and intelligent fellow, and seems to share in; . the genial and hospitable spirit which . .. pervades the premises. He expects recognition from every visitor. Going into -the General's office, oace, after a few "; v days1 absence, I greeted-the gentlemen; wlio wore there, but did not speak to. Veto. He looked at me expectantly from the opposite side of the room for a min- : : ute or two, and, when I failed to speak '. h to him, he saluted me with a bow-wow- : wow tliat was perfectly comical in ito peculiar tone of reproof, and then sprang across the room and laid his iiead on my knee for the customary patting.:

A horrible railroad accident occurred on tho Carolina Central railroad, near -Lincobaton, -N. C. hy which six of the nine persons on ttie " train lost their fives. A passenger train," com " posed of tho engine, three box-cars, one combination car with the mail, express' and bag- .. gage in it, and one passenger coach, was going . from Shelby to Charlotte. When the train.', reached what is known as the Indian Creek trestle, and just as the engine had crossed if. ' the whole frsmc-work gave way, and the entire ' train, except the enjnne and tender, wont down .

wilth a fearful cranh into the ravine, a distance .

of seventy feet. There was only a small rivulet at tho bottom of the ravine, and the cars, ; in falling, wrens uncoupled and turned over, the cmihimition car on its aide and the paasenger car bottom upwards. Scarcely had these fallen, and their creaking timbers ceased trem- -bling, when tho whole of tlio huge trestle-work came down upon the passenger aud mail cars, : literally thiitening them, and completing the work of destruction. The only two witnesses of this fearful, sight were Engineer Hail and . Fireman Smith. The engine itself was stopped ' for a moment by the jeik of the lolling train, ; and before it could start again the engineer stopped it. and the two jumped off and went to the wTfsck. which was uly reached by taking . a circuUous mute. They wore horrified at seeing flames bursting from every part of the pas- : senger and combination .ears, in which there had been red-hot stoves, which were upset' : in the fall. Tho engmc-rr cried "My Ood ! r. Smith, we are the only survivors- left to tell the story' Ho caught up his ax and began to -knock down tho side of the passenger u. from which the Dames were burating in several . places. He saw inside one of the passengers I1. Ji. Smith, who had ben caught under seat, which was pressed down on him hy an ; immen.se beam that had fallen from the trestlewjrk. The engineer made heroic efforts to save ti e unfortunate man's life. He rushed in the burning debris and attempted to lift him .. up, but found that this conld not he done until - tho big timber which pressed down upon his legs above the knees had been removed. With . the assistance of thet-remau he found he could not lift the timber, and he set to work to cat it, . Hmitn w as perfectly conscious, and, as he saw tlio flames nearing him rapidly, ho piteously struggled under the weight wnich p nned him . so helplessly in the track of the 'devouring ,s element- and called upon the axman to , do his best. The engineer norked with superhuman energy, aud rained the blows upon the brittle wood thick and fast in the few minutes. ' which were hours of suspense to the engineer and the poor fellow who was held in a vise-like;

The London Cabby ':' "T1Q-Lopdon cabby ia at onoe phii-. 94lri-id a wit, a sort of English Diogenes ou his tub instead of in it.- He; has triumphed over every obstruction, oven over the London fog. Weather is nothing to him as long as he can raise fare. When he can't raise a fare he chuffs at the passing world. His bed, as a rule, is his box, and he has been known; to take a nap there occasionally. He is a much-abused person, but, on the whole, :: he is a civil, cheery, well-conducted person, particularly gallant to nervous old ladies and almost a rival of the guards or of the "bobbies' with the nursery maids, for he has inherited the wink of Sam WeJler, and nothing could possibly re-, sist that His tribe is very numerous,', there being fourteen thousand of him,, notwithstanding underground and over- ' ground railroads and 'busses innumeraf ble, A mission has been started in Iondon for his special spiritual and ' moral' 'improvement, but he doesn't seem to take kindly to the movement; in facti it is hard to see how he can find time to attend a mission. Of the 14,000 cabbies; only 1,001) are set doAvn as total abstainers, aud even these elite would probably resemble Kip's drinks they dou't count If anv class of persons might be excused

for taking an occasional nip, it would

surely be London cabmen, who ah3 csustaut.y exposed to every kind of th worst weather that . ever was invented. Sir E. Henderson, chief of the London police, stated at a recent meeting that he discovered a gradual improvement iu the cabby. There has been a considerable diminution during the past year in the number of cabmen brought before the authorities for drunkenness, but in this respect they had as yet by no means, reached the point of moral elevation at- ' tained by omnibus men and st iigolriveis. Out of 4,400 omnibus men there was nly' 11 convictions for drunkenness during ? the year, and of 3,200 stage-drivers only . 20. In 11,000 eahmen there had been 1,100 convictions, a reduction of 250 ou the. previous year. They were also rather addicted to furious driving, a fault-. that probably bears - eorrespoudiug , ratio to yin.
