"Then stay at home, my heart, and rest. The bird ia safest in the nest; O'er all that flutter their wings and ly, A hawk ii horering la the Uj." Longfellow. IOCÜG FOLKS. A Commendable Compositlosx. The following "Geographal Composition" was written by a little girl only tea rears old, Mary Ransdell of the 4 A Grade, School No. 11, Indianapolis, under the obserratioa of her teacher. It ia written entirely from memory and the wording is original, show ing quite an extended vocabulary for one so young: U EOG KAPHA L COMPOSITION. The Atlantic Plain is divided into two parts, low wet lands, and billy lands. The low wet lands, before cultivated, are covered with forests of palmetto trees; after being cultivated rice and sugar cane grow there; on the hillv lands are cotton, sweet potatoes, corn and "tobacco. Forests of pitch pine grow on the Appalachian mountains. The ranges of the Appaiacman system are Aueghanies, Adirondack, Catskills and Blue Kidge; they extend northeast and southwest, the group is the inte Mountains, tue peak is the Black Mountains. On the mountains are forests of evergreens, beech, and maple trees; in these forests live bear, deer and wildcats. In the mountains are found rich mines of coal and iron. "The central plain lies between the Alle ghany and rocky mountains; east of the .Mississippi river tue land is nuiy, west oi the Mississippi half way to the rocsy Moun tains the land is level and on up near the Rockies the land is very high, but leveL The lakes are Michigan, Erie, Huron, On tario and Superior, lhe animals are owl, prarie dog and rattlesnake. "The ranges of the Pacific highland system are the Cascade andllocky; they extend north and south; on the top of the mountains are snow and ice; the land is fertile at the foot of the mountains. The animals of this region are the grizzly bear and panther; the minerals are gold and silver." 'Jira Crow." A true story, by Kate Upson Clark, in Good Cheer. Last summer, when the young son of Mr. L. S. Metcalf, then on the editorial stall" of The North American lleview, found a baby crow in a nest and brought it home, the family hardly knew whether to be sorry or glad. They were at their country place in Maine, and there was plenty of room, so permission was finally given that Jim Crow, as the yonngster was christened, should be adopted into the family, and his manners and morals, as well as his physical wants, receive close attention. Accordingly, warm Indian-meal-and-water was served up to him dail;-, and Jim Crow grew and flourished. At an early age, he became addicted to warm muffins, and the first strength of his wings was exerted to fly to the window whence the muilins had been first dealt out to him, where he pecked and peGked on the glass until his wants were supplied. As Jim awoke at peep of dawn, and was free to go when and where he liked, it was somewhat inconvenient that his desire for niuffiins should awake at the same time, but argument had no effect upon him, and his persistent patter, patter on the pane was usually kept up, until, as in the Scripture story, the family were glad to arise and minister unto the importunate beggar. As he became older, his intelligence and his affectionate ways made him a great favorite. He was liberally petted, and he seemed to appreciate fully ail tl j nind attention he received. He was always ready for a frolic, and exhibited signs of great pleasuse when he found that anyone wasreaiy to play with him. His favorite pastime was to hold a little stick just within reach of his companion, and then playfully ierk it away, lie was never weary of this sort of fun. Jim Crow was very fond of anything bright,2and would mischievously pick up thimbles and all such light and glittering objects, and carry them off whenever he could find them. Many a chase through dewy grass and cornfields did Jim Crow lead the ladies of the family', until they learned to be carefuL He early discovered where gentlemen carry their watches, and would insinuate himself neatly between their coats and waistcoats, capturing their shining timepieces, if they were not well secured. But it is recorded no less to the credit of Jim Crow's heart than his head, that he never pecked at the eyes of his friends, however close he might be held to them. He was very much afraid of straying away from home. As the members of the family would sally forth for long walks', or drives, Jim Crow was in the habit of perching upon their shouldiers, and woula travel on for awhile ia great apparent enjoyment; but when a hall mile or so was turned, he would begin to grow apprehensive, and by the time a mile was reached, he would unceremoniously spread his wings and.make for home. He was always on hand when there wa3 a game in progress upon the croquet-ground, and would enter into it with great zest pushing the ball this way and that, when he thought no one was observing him, to the dire confusion of the players. Old Joe, the large Isew'foundland dog of a neighbor, was also very fond of watching the game, and would often come and stretch himsilf out beside the wickets where he was allowed to remain an honored spectator. For some reason, Jim did not like Joe. He always began to scold vociferously when the good 'old dog appeared, and manifested a strong disapproval of Joe's most innocent actions, though realizing fully the estimation in which the object of his dislike was held, he did not usually dare to directly molest him. One day, however, the players were all gathered in one corner, discussing a knotty point in the game, and Joe was fast asleep. Jim saw his chance, darted down like an arrow, pinched Joe with his sharp beak, and new back before the old dog could open his eyes. Joe sprang up, looked reproachfully at the gay company, who had, all, seen Jim's naughty maneuver and were laughing, and then he moved off slowly, and with a fine assumption of dignity. Joe did not seem to suspect Jim at all, though that little wretch was chuckling hoarsely on a bough, well out of reach. The poor dog thought that some member of the company had pinched him, and from that time he went no more to the croquetground. One day a gentleman came to the well, which was famed far and wide for its pure, cold water, drew up the bucket, took down a cup frem the pe?, and dipping from the overflowing pail, drank his fill. Thereafter, Jim, who had carefully watched the proceeding, and who had hitherto been content to drink from a pan beside the well, provided himself with a cup also, and, skillfully dipping vp his portion, sipped only from his CUD. A carpenter employed about the place was the object of Jim's special aversion. The instant he appeared, Jim would drop every thing else, and devote bis entire attention to scolding at him. The man himself was generally as much amused as anybody else at Jim'i unreasonable antipathy, but on one occasion, he did not find it so funny. A sewer was to be laid, and he was brrie 1 up to the very crown oi his hat in a great hole which he had dug, when some particular process obliged him to rest his hand for a moment upon the turf above. Jim instanty perceived his opportunity, and, darting mischievausly downward, gave the hand several severe peeks before its owner could withdraw it. The carpenter, naturally, was rery angry, but Jim only laughed at his discomfiture from the top of a neighboring tree. . Of a little irl who was a visitor in the fam ily, he was very fond. At first, he was sooae wnai airmid oi her, sever having eeea cue a Uay creature n human shape, bat when he

The fan Blight be discharged a doeen times and im might. witness, close at hand, its deadly enects, oat so long as his mends were snoot ing, Jim seemed to know that he should not be hart. Jim's pan of water itood close Ibeside the pump, and was usually renewed- by each person who came near; for Jim, .so far from being uncleanly, as birds of his race are sometimes supposed to be, was scrupulously neat, and a most persevering bather. When his pan bad been renewed, and be. had drank from his cnn. he was in the habit of eatinz bis breakfast. When this . consisted . of crusts, as it often did, he usually soaked them in his pan,, until they were soft. One day he caught an enormous grasshopper, and evidently found it too hard to make a good meal, so he patiently soaked it for some time, hoping ap parently that the tough morsel might grow tenderer. His disgust was. vary amusing, when, after repeated soakings, Mr. Grasshopper remained as tough as ever. Jim scolded at him hoarsely, and finally threw him away in a pet. He had equally hard luck with a small toad, which also stubbornly refused to soften, after Jim had held him under water for a lone time. Oh, if Jim could only have talked, what remarks he would have made! Talking crows are not nnknown, and had the little muscle beneath Jim a tongue been severed when he was .very young, he would un doubtedly have been able to say something, for that he had plenty of ideas no one could doubt. His efforts to articulate were patent to all his attendants. If ever anybody tried to talk, it was Jim Crow. As the time approached for the family to return to the city, the question presented itself, what should be done with Jim? He did not like any of the neighbors, and would not probably stay with them. He would die it left to himself, having never fraternized with his kindred, and being unused to providing for his own wants. Clearly, he must go to New York. , So a lathe house was fitted up for him in the rear of the lleview building in Lafayette Place, and the colored janitor, although he insisted that he "hadn't no use ' for him, was pressed into Jim s service. He pa3sed a very comfortable winter. Once he escaped through a window which had carelessly been left oien, and disappeared from view, but a call from his anxious young master, who, from the top of the lleview building, detected his truant pet wandering in a bewildered way in an adjoining yard, caught Jim's ear at once, and stretching his beautiful, glossy wings joyfully he flew upward, and perched upon his master's shoulder. It was well into April, and the precautions which had been taken during the winter to shield the cherished pet from the weather, had been somewhat relaxed, when a terribly cold night came, and Jim Crow was seized with pneumonia. He was attended faithfully qthI Arcrvthinff tHar lnvnin clrill rniilil enter. ... V. . V . J ... . n .UM. .V, . U . . . WV. U.V. W V.f gest was done for him. His speaking eyes pleaded anectionately with his friends lor relief, but nothing seemed to help him. His step became more and more uncertain, and his bright eyes grew dull and filmy. At last he fell quite off his perch, and dear little Jim Crow was dead. It almost seemed as though a human life had gone out. He was buried in a paper casket under a wide-spreading tree in the rear of the Review building, where his grave is marked by a wooden cross, inscribed with the name, "Jim Crow." Professor Trespass Johnson's Climax. ILime-Kiln Club.J 'I can't see dat Frofessor Trespass Johnson am in de hall to-night," said Brother Gardner as he looked up and down. "De fack am, I didn't 'zackly 'spect he would be. Sartin events hev occurred to render his absence a necessity. De seckretary will turn to his name on de roll an' scratch it off, and write across it in red ink de word 'expelled.' " When the secretary had carried out the request, the president continued: "Up to a ye'r ago Professor Johnson wa3 an active, respected member of disclub. He was not noly a worker in our cause, but he was industrious as a man. If lie couldn't get work at $1.20 a day, he got it fur $1. If he couldn't hev roast duck for Sunday, he put up wid beef-bone soup. His family had plenty to eat an' w'ar, an' when rent day cum around he had de cash ready for his landlord. "J ist about some twelve months back some white man told de professor dat he had just as good a right to a pianer, gold watch an' span of horses as a rich man. He was told dat de aristocracy war coinin' money out of his labor, lie was made to believe dat de pusson who wouldn't pay $2 to hev a kitchen celin' whitewashed was an oppressor. It was pounded into him dat, if he sot on de fence all summer an' talked again de blueblood of dis kentry, somebody would furnish him roast turkey all winter. "Many of you saw how he was affected. He begun to hate honest work. His mouth began to grow bigger. While his cloze growed seedy, his importance increased daily. When his wood-pile grew les3 he cussed Vanderbilt. When his flour bar'l was empty he reviled Jay Gould. When his children became ragged he ripped at capital. When his wife becum bar'fut ne swore at de aristocracy. When his landlord bounced him for non-payment of rent he howled an' raved about oppressors an' tyrants. "De climax cum las' nite. I heard dat he had bin boastin' dat de rich must divide wid him, an' concluded to watch my hen coop. About 'leben o'clock de professor showed up. I had twenty-two choice hens. He had none. He was gwlne to divide wid me and take 'leben. My frens, I can't 'zackly discribe what' happened arter I got my paws on him, but I know he went away empty-handed, limpin', sore, an' in de hands of an officer. He am no longer a member of dis club. If dar' am any odder member wid socialistic ideas, now would be a good time fur him to make a grab far his hat an' back down Sta's." Meeting of the Western Nail Association. PiTTSBCKo, Feb. 20. The Western Nail Association met at the Monongahela House in this city to-day and adopted the following resolutions: Itesolved. That the Junction Iron Company, having failed to abide by and perform the pledges and obligations made and assumed by their President, Samuel Laughlin, thereby forfeiting otir confidence and respect and rendering themselves unworthy of membership in our association, It is hereby declared that the Junction Iron Company is no longer a member of the Western Nail Association.

Sarah McDaniels, a colored woman living on Mr. Fish's place, one mile from, Tallahassee, Fla., has given birth to forty-two children, and is now a robust, healthy-looking woman. The first umbrella ever seen in England was carried by a footman named John McDonald, and it is a remarkable fact that, it belonged to somebody else, and was taken "by mistake for his own." It is said that there are 1,000,000 children in England who do not attend school by reason of the poverty of their parents. It may be added that in half of these cases drink is the cause of the poverty. At a dinner given lately in New York, the dining-room ceiling was covered with a network of vines fastened from the chandelier to the four corners of the room. The vines were literally covered with .towers. Small fly-wheels, cast hollow and loaded with lead, is a foreign notion that promises to become popular in .this country. They afford the same centrifugal power as a large wheel, cost less and take up less room. A Washington correspondent tells of 2a death there recently which is sensational in its details. A young doctor, handsome, strong and of great promise, was called to see a lady in a carriage at his door. Receiving no answer to his greeting to the patient, he thought she had fainted. He stepped into her coupe and found her already a corpse. He drove by the side of the dead woman to her house and thence to the hospital, where he was expected to participate in a meeting of the managers. Apologizing to his colleagues for his lateness, he related his ghastly experience. Then remarking, "I feel faint," he fell, struck dead by paralysis. Paper is about to monopolize another branch of industry, which is no less a one than the making of gentleman's head gear. By a new process of manipulation, hats more serviceable and finer than anything now in the market are made of wood pulp. They are impervious to water and not wanting in flexibility. It is believed that felt hats will have to take a back seat as soon as these new hats can be placed on the markets in suflicient numbees to supply the demand. They are certain tD revolutionize the hatter's trade, as they can be molded into any shape or style desired, and colored to meet the taste of the public. They can be made to represent a glossy or nappy appearance. Saccharin, a species of combined benzoic acid discovered by Fahlberg in 1832, is a substance many times sweeter than cane sugar, and, when mixed with grape sugar, posesses the flavor of the cane product in a marked degree, Its high price has hitherto prevented its acquiring commercial importance, but the Rundschau Leitmeritz now states that several costly steps in its production have been eliminated, and it is likely to become very useful to confectioners. One part of saccharin added to -,000 parts of gluccose is said to give that substance a sweetness equal to cane sngar. The same authority states that saccharin is harmless to the human organism, and does not, like cane sugar, become decomposed in the system. Investigation shows that the limit of temperature at which, men can work depends upon the length of the exposure," the amount of exertion put forth, their con dition and the nature of the atmosphere, particularly as to its degree of moisture. It is stated that men have been employed on railways at 104 deg., in mines under very favorable conditions at 125 deg., and are said to work occasionally in the stoke-holes of tropical steamers at 156 deg. Professor Dnbois is reported to have estimated that a temperature of 122 deg. can be endured when the air is as dry as possible, but even 104 deg. is likely to be fatal in an atmosphere saturated with moisture. It is also considered certain that men cannot become accustomed to stand for any considerable time a higher temperature than from 143 deg. to 1G5 deg. even when they keep perfectly still and are in quite pure air. An expert in physiological chemistry, Dr. It. N. Wolfenden, in experiments with the poison of tue deadly cobra di capello, says that while it has been alleged that the venom of this snake contains an alkaloid and a principle known as cobric acid, he has been unable to verify either of these assertions; indeed, he denies the existence of both substances. He further shows that the venom loses its power when the albuminous bodies are removed, or otherwise, rendered inert. Mixtures containing the cobra poison, when treated with metalic salts that precipitate albumen, were found to be harmless. Any compound that removed albumen from solutions of the poison, or any agents, such as permanganate of potash, that oxodized albumens (into oxsulphonic and other allied acids), destroyed the . poisonous property of the venom. Wolfenden has found three poisonous proteids In the venom. The largest quantity of proteid was a globulin that had asphyxiating properties, and a smaller quantity of syntonm possessing similar properties was also detected. A form of serum albumen existed in minute proportions, and this was ascertained to have remarkable powers, paralyzing small animals. RELIGIOUS, INTELLIGENCE, AND INCIDENT.

Kev. Dr. Potter, a clergyman of Sheffield, England, and a Loyal Orangeman, having receided a sovereign, for the poor of his parish, from a ritualistic rector, has returned it, as he di Hers from his theological views, and says, "Tiraeo Danaos et dona fcrentes." Of the Rev. Dr. C. L. Goodell, whose death we recorded last week, the St. Louis Central Baptist says: "He was a man of decided convictions, evangelical in teaching, and of lovely spirit. It is said he was never heard to speak harshly or unkindly of any one." QTbe Baptist Home missionary society has erected near Muscogee, Indian Territory, a fine brick structure, costing, with furniture $25.000, for the Indian university. It is called itockafeller hall, from the generous donor of that name, who gave f 10,000 toward it The Eev. Dr. Tal mage headed a deputation which waited on Mayor Whitney, of Brooklyn, recently, to present a petition asking that the Salvation Army have leave to preach in the streets and march singing to their places of worship, and in so doing to be under the police protection.

He expects to make his headquartors in Gl&scow. . He will be absent about fifteen months, and bis many friends will wish him a safe voyage, great success, and a happy home coming. It is not long since Professor Wodrowof the Charleston Theological Seminary, was compelled bv an adverse vote to retire from his position because of his views on evolution. Southern Presbyterian circles have since been somewhat excited over this question. As a result the question of evolution has been taken up by the Virginia Presbyterian synod, and a finding has been arrived at declaring it to be in harmony with scriptural principles. It is felt that a great point had been gained and that the Virginia synod has done justice to and vindicated Presbyterianism. Rev. Robert Collier says: I think we may notice four eras in the life of great historic churches. We may entitle taem first, inwardness; second, outwardness; third, world' liness, and fourth, worthlessness. In the first era the soul is the main factor; in the second, the senses; in the third, the income, and the last, emptiness of whatsoever things are true and lovely and of good report. In the first era the soul is open to God rather than man ; in the second, to man rather than God; in the third, mainly to mammon, and in the last to spiritual palsy and death. Providence Journal. At a recent Sunday-school gathering in London Rev. J. T. Briscoe warned parents against making the Bible a punishment book. In some homes, Mr. Briscoe said, it was customary, when boys and girls misbehave to make them learn so many Bible verses fa a punishment. Such task-work as thLt the speaker denounced as infamous. It 'made the Bible a book of terror, hated by the children. Instead ot this the children ought to be trained to love the Bible, and to regard the reading of it as a privilege, not as a punishment The Bible, ne thought, was the best story-book in the world for boys and girls, and if children must read stories they ought to read the best storiea that is, the Bible ones. . VARIETIES,

To-morrow the anniversary of Washington's birth, will be a legal holiday in twentyfour states. A German chemist has succeeded in making cocaine out of chemicals, thereby cheapening the drug. It is reported that Julian Hawthorne and his brother-in-law George Parsons Lathrop are about to start a weekly journal in New York, which will specially publish stories and poetry. Beginning Tuesday at Washington there will be an important conference of New Kngland Superintendents of Education. Doubtless the Blair Educational bill will be carefully considered. A London publisher, who prints six hundred thousand books a year, reports that "Robinson Crusoe" and "Monte Christo" lead all others in the sales. Among the poets, the demand for Longfellow is greater than for Scott, Shakespeare or Byron. Massachusetts last year spent $7,020,430 on her public schools, an average to each child of $20.42, an increase of $1.03 over that of the previous year. The Secretary of the State Board of Education declares the free textbook law of the State to be one of the best legislative act3 of recent years. He traces to the operation of the law the increase in enrollment in all the schools. The advocates of the twenty-four hour system of numbering the hours of the day are making rapid progress in introducing it. The Canada & Pacific railroad company is said to have adopted it and at the last meeting of the American Society of Civil Engineers, the committee on standard time reported its belief that the railroads generally will have adopted it within the coming year. "Worthless as a weed" does not apply to sea-weed. A hundred-tons of air-dried seaweed will yield, besides its salts, twenty tons of algin and fifteen tons of cellulose. The algin is a glutinous substance, with fourteen times the viscosity of starch, or thirty-seven times that of gum-arabic. It is used for sizing, as a mordant in dyeing, in cooking and the making of confectionery, the manufacture of paper, to prevent the incrustation in steam boilers, and many other uses. A prominent diyine was the invited guest of Mr. B. and family. Miss Alice, the charming daughter of the host, was gracing the festivity, and said impulsively: "Oh, mother, I've been roasting up in my room all afternoon. It's hotter than " "Alice!" said the father sternly. "I say it's hotter than " "Alice!" said her mother excitedly, and the divine looked at her in alarm. "I say it's hotter than I ever saw it before," continued the young lady cooly, "and I just sat there without a thing on " "Oh, Alice I" said her father in alarm. This time the divine was thoroughly frightened. "I just sat there without a thing on " "Oh, Alice!" said the mother almost crying. "I say I just sat there," continued the girl, not noticing the interruptions, "I just sat there without a thing on but my very lightest summer clothing, and read my Bible all the afternoon. Will you have some more soup, doctor?" An interesting home-made method of natural decoration consists simply in taking a glass or goblet and placing in the interior a little common salt water. In a day or so a slight mist will be seen upon the glasshourly this will grow until in a very short time the glass will present a beautiful appearance, the glass being enlarged to twice its thicknesr, and covered with beautiful salt crystals, packed one upon another exactly like some peculiar fungus or animal growth. It is necessary to place a dish beneath the( glass as the crystals will run over. The glass' can be made additionally beautiful by placing in the salt and water some common red ink ; this will be absorbed, and the white surface covered. No more simple method of producing inexpensive or beautiful ornaments can be imagined, and by using different shapes of vases and shades, an endless variety of beautiful forms can be produced. Scientific American. Erastus Corning, of Albany, has two curious hobbies. Just at present, says the Albany Journal, he spends his spare moments in endeavoring to augment nis rare collection of about twelve hundred orchids. About fifteen years ago he busied himself for a long time in getting together fifty thousand butterflies. His collection of butterflies is perhaps the second or third best in the United States. A stone-cutter named Strecker, of Reading, fa., posesses the finest collection of these insects in this country, and Henry Edwards, the actor, of New Yorkv who has a collection of over three hundred thousand butterflies, thinks he has second best. Mr. Corning keeps his buttwdiea. in a case that looks very much like a doubl letter file, down in the office of his great green houses on the farm two and one-half miles south of the city. Some of the flies measure ten Inches from tip to tip of the wings Others are only the size 01 a big pinhead, wings and all. Two of the flies came from Siberia, and cost a large amount ot money. Most of the insects were taken in exchange with foreign and domestic dealers. Sentenced to the Penitentiary. Bpeclal to the Sentinel.

WIT AND PLEASANTRY.

"There is nothing -that isaaure-evre for laziness, bat I have known a second wife to hurry it some." Josh Billings. 1 ' A Burlington man has given cp bantering his wife. He laughed at her for using cosmetics, and she informed him that when he stopped painting his nose she would stop panting her cheeks. Burlington Free Herbert, who is studying grammar, says that the form of comparison positive, comparative, and superlative is changed abent at bis house. This is the formula he reports : Positivema ; negative pa; comparative pa and ma. I understand you are a graduate of Vassar, Miss Lucy. Did you ever study English literature to any extent?" "Oh, mercy, yes; we had Hogg for breakfast, Bacon for dinner. Lamb tor tea, and Lover in the evening." Elgin Every Saturday. "Some ene has invented a theater hat that shuts up, to be worn by ladies." That's all right. Now let the same party invent something that will hold a young man in his scat between the acts and two nuisances will be abated. Norristown Herald. It was a droll reply that rose from the lips of a Confederate soldier who was caught in a persimmon tree by General Longstreet. "When sternly asked by his commander what he was doing there, the veteran at once disarmed bis superior's wrath by saying: "I'm eatin' some, green persimmons to draw my stomach up so it'll fit its rations." Tbey were discussing in the Illinois Legisla ture a bill to prevent the destruction of quail for three years. Speeches of various sorts were made. One farmer advanced the suggestion that there were too many quaiL If they should be preserved for three years they would eat up au the crops. Then up rose an honest granger, with this valuable contribution to natural history: "Mr. Cheerman, I've lived in Hlinoy, man and boy, for forty ears. Enduring all of which time I've folered agricultooral pursoots exceptin' for seven year, when I was a-runnin' of a sawmill, and I have obsarved this about quail: whenever there is too many quail, 1 the good Lord He freezes them out" That settled it now a Woman Saws a Board, When a woman her home would decorate, 8he stops not at obstacles Email or ere at. But the funniest sight her trials afford Is when a maiden essays to saw a board. With her knee on a plank, and the plank on a chair. She poises her saw with a knowiag air. Makes several wild raps at the penciled line, And is off with a whizz the reverse of fine. With lips compressed she gets down to work, And crosses the timber ierkety-jerk; She can't keep the line, her knee slips askew, But she keeps to the work till the board spUts in two. She has damaged the chair, she has ruined the saw, ner back is aching, her hands are raw. And she finds, when she tries to fit her prize, It's an inch too short of the requisite size. Denver Tribune. The Outlook. A fanner was hoeing industriously on his patch of land, when a town loafer approached the fence. "Hello. Farmer B ! What do you think Of the outlook?" "What outlook?" "Why, the business outlook." "Didn't know there was one." "We were all talking about it down at the store, and they sent me up to see what you would say." "Oh yes, I see. Well, you tell 'em if they will stop talkin', and go to hoein', that the country will prosper without any outlook. D'ye hear?" Sam Jones Floored. Yicksburg Herald. Tne Rev. Sam Jone3 whoops up the boys sometimes and rakes them horribly about their gambling and drinking frolics. "Oh, I've been all along there, boys. I know all about it and I used to go to balls and dance, too. boys. But when I wanted to get married, when I wanted to settle down with a good wife, I quit drinking and gambling; and I didn't go to a ball-room to get my wife, but I went to a prayer meeting and I got a good one." He told this in Texas, and when he returned to his boarding-house his landlady, who had heard his remarks, said: "I don't blame you, Brother Jones, but poor Sister Jones, where did she go to get her nusband?" They say that this is the only time he has been floored since he quit drinkA Disappointed Couple. Lafavette, Ind., Feb. 20. Love docs not always laugh at locks. So thought Samuel Brown, a genteel-appearing young man, as he feand himself in custody while in the act of paying for a marriage license, authorizing his union with Miss A. llobson, a young woman residing at Hoopston, 111. Brown's suit for the hand of his daughter did not suit the elder Hobson, so the young lady came here ostensibly to visit a friend, but really to wed Mr. Brown. They went to the clerk's office, applied for a license, and while waiting for that individual to make out the papers, a telegram came directed to the sheriff of this country, ordering Brown's arrest upon a charge of larceny. The ofheer at once acted upon the telegram, and Brown was taken from the side of his intended. Both were greatly disappointed. Brown was locked up for the night, and the girl went to her aunt's. An officer is expected after Brown. C. V. Majors, Esq., of Rolla, Mo., writes: "I take pleasure in adding my testimony to that of hundreds of others, as to the efficacy of Prickly Ash Bitters. I nave not only sold it here and in Arkansas, but have used it myself, and as a regulator of the stomach and bowels, I do not think there is anything better. Its action on the bowels is free, without causing any griping or pain whatever." Yielded to the Demands ot the Strikers Special to the Sentinel. Evaksvtllk, Ind., Feb. 20. The strike which commenced here to-day among the. yardmen and brakemen of the Evansville and Terre Haute and Belt Railroad ended by the yielding of President Mackcy to the demands of the strikers for an increase of wages to the switchmen and brakemen of twenty-five cents per day. Trains are now running as usual. Horaford's Acid Phosphate. BE W ABE Or IMITATIONS. Imitations and counterfeits have again appeared. Be sure that the word "Horsford's" is on the wrapper.
