with the sweat of toil was Rood enough fur most men to wear at night, but there were certain among them who thought that they must wear nightgowns. He asked, with apparent seriousness, if they thought that a man who would wear a nightgown would make a good lawmaker. Corwin was confident that this was the principal issue in his first canvass for a scat in congress. Corwin had but one son, and he was very fond of him. When that son was a stud'nt at Dennison university, in this state, one of his teachers wrftto to Mr. Corwin that his son was studying too hard, and that he was in danger of injuring bis health. < >n receipt of that letter Mr. Corwin wrote ids son as follows. 1 saw the original of the letter, whieh Dr. Corwin still retained in

CORWIN AT L’S. opportunities towed before the death of her father, but refused them all, and t when he was gone she had passed tho marriageable age. Home years ago, on the suggestion of tile lute President Garfield, I spent some time in the collection of material with ti»e end in view of writing an adequate biography of the man who in ins day was tin* most popular ai^j the most talked of of any Ohio statesman. At that time 1 visited Lebanon and secured much data. Dr. William H. Corwin, the statesman's only son, was then alive, and he furnished me many reminiscences that, except in my notes, are now

ll ISt.

Why MInm 4 nr win Never Mnrrled. The following anecdote written out for me by Dr. Corwin explains why Miss Corwin never married: “The love which father cherished for his throe j daughters was so intense that it partook of the nature of jealousy when they began to he courted by the admiring young men of the vicinity. At the marriage of his oldest daughter, Eva, to Mr. George R. Sage, a young lawyer of Cincinnati, who is now United States district judge, he manifested so much feeling that the occasion partook more of the aspect of a funeral than of a wedding. During the ceremony he shed tears, and at the wedding supper, after a prolonged silence, he finally broke out as follow-: ‘Now, 1 want it distinctly understood that this thing i- never going to happen in this house again. There ! will never lie another wedd,*ig here. 1 will get a nigger tl feet tall and give him a pole 10 feet long and post him at the front diMir and instruct him to knock any young man in the head who comes to see my daughters.’ ’’ An interesting letter which 1 received from General Garfield at that time also bears upon tin* same subject. 1 will give it in full, as it contains several other points that are very interesting, anil that have never been made public: Wahhinoto.n, March 2,1S7H. Mv Hkaii Rohf.ktson Ynymof thc2ilth till, came duly In hand. I him not able to aive you much In rt'Kiinl to Corwni beyond Hie jmlnt you already refer to. I will, however, mention a few thiiiK* In order as they oerur to me: First He was feiiigularly affectionate towanl hi* family and friends. I remember he told me that at the marriage of eaeh of hi* daughters he had suffered the pangs of jealousy to think that his daughter could love another man bettor than she loved him; that when his first daughter was married. 1 hough the man she married was a noble fellow, yet Corwin ■hut himself up In Ids nutra foradayortwo liefore the marriage, and the family had much ilifllr ult y to get him to go down stairs and attend the ceremony. The oeeaslon of his telling me this was shortly before his death, when he had Just returned from the marriage of his youngest daughter. He said the old feeling of Jealousy revived, and he had a horrible time

is that should you kill yourself by overstudy it will give me great pleasure to allend your

funeral.

Under the second heading in General Garfield’s letter be suksi-qtuutly related an incident in his own life that has not appeared in any of his biographies, so far as I have ever seen. He said: “You would hardly suppose that 1 was once on the verge of gaining a reputation as a wit, would you?” I replied that I had never suspected such a thing. A KrpiltaJion Lost. “it is nevertheless true,” said he. “It happened in this way: I had at one time quite an itching in that direction and carried it so far in the campaign of 18(iO that I delivered one speech that was pronounced ‘funny’ by those who heard if. It was delivered in (lolumbus, O., and published quite widely. The comments of the press called a good deal of attention to it. Up to that time 1 had not made a wide reputation in the state as a stump speaker, but tho flattering notices of that speech brought me into considerable prominence. I received a large number of invitations to speak in various localities. 1 thought tho matter over considerably and saw that the time had arrived when I must take my place before the public cither as a ‘funny man’ or as a speaker who dealt with facts. 1 said to myself that I could probably gain a quicker and a wider reputation as a man of humor than ns a speaker who dealt with subjects after the usual matter of fact way. But I knew myself well enough to know that I could not long hold out as a wit and that when I failed in that line I could not then take up the other style of discussion. As I now recall it, it was a good deal of a struggle, but I decided firmly to suppress the wit or the attempts at wit and so accepted an invitation to speak in < 'iucinnati. 1 proceeded to prepare a speech in the most matter of fact way imaginable on the leading issues of the day. There was a large crowd out to hear me. They evidently expected something after the Corwin stamp. In fact, it had been more than whispered about that J was the second ‘Waggoner boy.’ 1 went ahead and didn't crack a joke during the whole speech. A more disappointed audience it has never been my fortune to addre -. I never had any reputation as a wit to contend against, though, after that speech. ’ I ii il i* 4 Mil Ag**. “Poor Corwin!” remarked the general, after a pause. “Hedied, like many another man who has made a reputation as a wit, in great distress of mind. He was really a profound man and one of tho best lawyers this country over produced, but the common people regarded him as a buffoon whose bounden duty it was to amuse them.” When Corwin returned to the United States in 18(14 from Mexico, where he had been serving as minister, he found himself a hopeless bankrupt. About

Sheep Will He Sent to Market ami Our Flock* Forever IMiutppear. If wool be put on the free list, the American woolgrowcr will have to submit to the disadvantagi s of raising wool in this climate on even terms with his foreign rivals, who do not have such difficulties to contend with, and so without adequate protection innst necessarily be driven out of tho business. Our seventh largest agricultural industry, producing annually $116,000,004 worth nf wool and representing an investm-nt of $100,000,000 in sheep, will be destroyed by *700 trade. Sheep wiii lie fattened and will then lie sent to market as food, and flocks will disappi ar forever. Our food supply will in tim** thus Ik- decreased, and our manufacturers eventually will be driven to buy their wool in London or in Australia. Gobi will bo thus sent out of the country again, increasing the harmful influences that must follow with the balance of trade permanently against u*. The woolgrowers will be furred into some otlier industry. The}’will probably plow up their present sheep pastures when tho land is suitable and raise wheat, of which we already have an overproduction and a surplus, and the probabilities are that in consequence ol the great increase in our surplus of wheat in a short time we will have only 10 cent wheat. It is to the interest of American farmers to diversify their industries and to produeo such articles as will find a market at home instead of abroad. The farmer who can sell direct to the consumer close to Ids home saves the middleman's profits and the : cost of transportation, which otherwise always lessen the net price to him when he has to find a market abroad.

Second He remarked very sadly one evening that it was the greatest mistake of Ids life that he had ever cracked a joke or made a funny speech, for people would never believe that a funny man could have any solid abilities, and if he did not make a funny speech ids audience was disappointed. Third —The story of his first election to concress, or what lie called “the nightshirt issue, M I think you will remember sufficiently without my repeating it. Fourth A large party of Ohio people iiad assembled at the house of Mr. Wet more, the military agent of Ohio, and Corwin was in his happiest vein of anecdote. He occupied a sofa, with a friend seated on each hand and as many seated in front of him as could get within reach. Tht y were listening to one of Ins inimitable stories, in the course of which he arose to illu.-'irate some point of the anecdote, and while making a gesture with both hands was stricken with paraly.-is and fell forward. 1 caught him in my arms as he fell, and Whitelaw Held, who stood beside me, aided in carrying him to u bed in an adjoining room, lie spoke once or tw ice on tin way and as we laid him down, but never spoke again. He died next da>. Very truly yours, J. A. G AH FI CM). A Peculiar Issue. Tho “nightshirt issue,” to which Geiionil Garlit lil refers in his letter, was ono of Corwin's favorite stories, ami General Garfield told me that he had heard Corwin repeat it on two separate oeeasions. It was to tht^follow-

ing effect:

When Corwin first ran for congress, he was at first somewhat put to it for a satisfactory issue. He accidentally learned that his opponent wore a nightshirt, which was rather unusual in those days and in that locality. He referred to this fact in one of his speeches and noticed that it created quite a sensation. He then proceeded in subsequent speeches to expatiate in every conceivable way upon this subject, picturing to his hearers a man clad in a nightgown such as honest grandmothers wear. He remarked that the shirt wet

Total 1,700,505 l.mK.SU 1.052.06H These figures show increased exports of almost 140,000 bales within the three given periods. Comparing these nim months’ exports with the total clips for the entire season, given elsewhere, we find that only 67,000 bales remained on hand on Marcli 31, 181)4, as compared with 116,000 bales on hand a year ear- i lier and 187,000 bales not exported on March 31, 1K!I2. Perhaps the recent hard times in tho colonies have compelled the quicker marketing of the dip this last season so as to secure prompt returns for the owners.

CORWIN AT 60. $1(10,000 ill debts hung suspended over his head. This enormous sum was the result of having signed notes for alleged friends, who left them for him to pay. In Ids old age he settled down to tho task of earning sufficient money at the practico of the law to scitle with his creditors. He opened a law office in Washington, and his great ability attracted clients with important litiga tion, and the tlushnoss of the times was helping him in a remarkable way to pay Ids debts, when he was suddenly cut down as described above by General Garfield.

He is mischievous because he is always insincere; ho is mischievous he is tricky; he is mischievous because he is deceitful; he is mischievous because he is a pretender; he is mischievous because he is ignorant; he is mischievous because of his assumption of knowledge; he is mischievous because he is a coward.—American Economist

Hurial Customs ot tin* N«• w ZotlaiHlrr*. The New Zealanders have a singular burial custom, and one that is essentially the same as that of the Parsecs of the orient. Unlike the latter, they bury their dead in the earth, but leave thorn there only long enough for the flesh to decay. When nothing is left but the bones, these are carefully cleaned and laid away in natural caves or artificial tombs. The crime of grave robbing or of disturbing the bones of the dead after they have been cleaned and put away is always punished by death in New Zealand and throughout Polynesia.
