The old ladj and her grandchild

Jus: then a knock came opon the

Eleanor (lanced at tbe uper-
ecnpuoa
without recognizing tbe
wriving.
'It in not from Ralph," she eaid.io
reply to her grandaioiber.s questien-
JDg iKk.
Af cr tbe bridal comume had been
pronounced a perfect fit aod entrusted
U Margaret to be replaced in tbe c
dr chent, Eleanor took op the letter
and broke tbe seal.
She re&d the first few lines care
lesslr, then into tbe brown eje a
look'of ont-peakable borror eprang
"What is it, Eleanor!" exclaimed
Mrs Hamilton, as sbe eaw her agita
tion, but without speaking, tbe young
girl rapidly read on to tbe end. Then,
wiib a eobbiog, long drawn breath,
ebe threw herself iato ber grandmoth
er' arms.

"Grandma, , speak ! And I Ralph's
promised bride ihe child nt 0!

Then Mrs. Hamilton ppoke.
"Eleanor, try and be calm, and I
will tell you tbe truth. You know
that your mother, my only child, died
at the early a?e of twenty ; but you
Lave not heard that she died of a bro
fcpn heart! When tbe man whom
she married against ber parent'
wishes, abused ber, tb b r-s it with
out complaint, never laitiair us dream
of her uobappine8 ; bat when, after
foing bis wife oniy three years, she
discovered that her husband was a
criminal, living upon bis ill-gotten
train, then she left him, fleeing with
b:r bab t'i our protection. Not lone
after, your father was arrested for a
bank robbery, and imprisoned. Tbe
Hb'H'k rastoo mcch for jonr mother's
frule KTenpth. aid after lingering a
fcbort, time fhe piwd aey. After
ber death your trrandpa saw your
fd-her and obtained from bira the
prmif1 never to dinelose biraHeU to
von. Hot, alas! h has broken it
Do cot blan3 up, Elcaaor, for thus
keeping you in ignorance of vrLs.t
would have always clouded your
life. 7e thought we did it for the
best."
The vonac girl listened with bent
head and tightly claRped hands. As
Ler grandmother paused she looked
np.
A woeful chance tad come into the
round, blooming face.
"Grandma," she said, and ber voice
was low and strained, "does any one
know of this ?"
"Only one your friend, Mr.
Stearns, your grandfather's law
yer." "And Ralph does be not know ?"
"I ao not think he does. '
"01 (tbe young voice was very
nkcous) it was a cruel kindness to
keep it from me Niw I shall never
ba Ralph Ogdea's wife "
"Eleanor," expostulated her grand
mother, winding her arms around the
drooninz figure, "he never need know
You can go and see your fathbr. He
sftvs it will be the last time he will
ever send for you."
Drawing herself away, Eleanor
looked firmly into the tearful face
near her own.
"Grandma, I will not bring a taint
ed name to him I love. I can never
marry Ralph Ogden."
Tbat evening Mrs. Hamilton Bent
for Mr. Stearns, and the two old
friends had a long consultation to
gether. The kind old lawyer's eyes
moistened as he heard of Eleanor's
rrrief.
"The scoundrel!" be ejaculated,
'-after roinine one life, cmld he not
have held his peace and refrained from
blighting another T Rut stay," said
. he, taking up tbe letter again and
reading : "I have fought against the
longing to see you, ray daughter, but
I can no longer restrain myself.
promise you that if you come to me
this once it will be the last time you
shall ever bear from your wretched
father." "This looks to me as though
he must be very eick perhaps dy
iag."
"So Eleanor thinks, and the noble
child persists in saying she will go at
once to him. brie declares it is ber
duty. Poor, poor child ; I see now
that this concealment baa been very
wronc"
"Do not fret, my friend ; you and
vonr good husband could not look ia
to the future. You did as you thongt
best. So Eleanor has written about
it to Mr. Ogden ? She is a noble crea
ture, and if he is what he orurht to be
it will briar him jn the wings of the
wind."
Tbo next day a heavily-veiled,
girlish figure and an old, gray haired
gentleman were led through a gloomy
corridor, and into a prison cell.
Eleanor moved as in a dream
She was dimly aware of a long, nar
row bedstead upon which lay a pros
trate, quiet form.
Two gentlemen, a doctor and
cicrgvman, were the only otner occu
pants ef the room. The latter rose
as she entered and came forward,
"Is tbis Miss Moore ?" be said,
gravely. "Jay cbua, l lear you are
too late vour father has been ia this
unconscious state for hours."
Eleanor gave one long, earnest
look into the pale, drawn face wi
its closed eyep.
This then was ber father ! An icy
band seemed to clutch ber heart.
Her father ! and dying thus !
"Couraire ! my brave little Elea
nor." whispered Mr. Stearna. Wi
an effort the girl locked up into tbe
old friend's face, as if to gain etreng
from his sympathy ; then ehe went
steadily forward to the bedside.
As Eleanor gazed down at tbe
face which retaiued many traces ot
the manly beauty which had wen
her mother's love, and realized tbat
the was indeed bis daughter, all tbe
strength and nobility of her soul rose
to the surface. Stooping, she laid
ber soft band upon his'cold forehead.
"Father ?" The pitying tone pro
nounced that word eo sacred, and bo
wound around the tenderest fibers of
oar human natures, forced tears into
all eyes. "Father, it ia Eleanor!
- your daughter 'can you speak to
her?"
Tbe call pierced the apathy of death
The dying man's eyes opened and
fastened upon her face. A wave of
bif ,., o0 ju rija Tolce sank, wbue

sad scene. Several days passed, ana
do reply had as yet come from Ralph
Ogden to the letter Eleanor bad writ
ted, aod in which she bad disclosed
tbo story, the knowledge of which
had, therefore, brought ber such sor
row. la it she had told him in a few but
tender words tbe pain it gave ber to
look forward to a life unshared by bw
presence; but though in her ignorance
if the disgrace upon ber name, she
bad promised to be bis wife, ebe could
not, koowing all, expect bim to take
borne a convict's child. Still another
trouble wrung the poor girl's heart.
Before loiig the in vitations to the wed
ding would have to be countermand
td, aad then tbe broken engagement
would be tbe comment of all. She
beard in imagination tbe remarks
which would be passed, aud shrank
from the curious words and looks she
knew would follow ber wherever ebe
weot.
"Had I not you grandma, and my
Bible," Bbe taid, despairingly, "I
fchouid surely die It id almost more
than 1 can bear."
Mrs. Hamilton kissed tbe quivering
lips, she knew caressel would help
woere words would only woujd.
Thursday morning arrived, and
with it Ra ph Ogden. Instead of the
expected letter be bad come himself.
Eleanor received bis card, and read
tbe peuciled request that she would
see bim, aud for a moment a film
Cduie before ber eyes, aad all grew
drk before her ; then, white as
dealb, but very calm, she went down
iuto tbe library, where he awaited
her.
She had always known the intense
love of family which had always fill
ed the beans of tbe Ouen race, aud
of tbeir pride in a name which bad
never been sullied by aught dishon
orable ; and until a short time before
she bad thought she bore a name as
tainless as theirs, ow she knew
ifferenily.
Tbe horary door swung back ou
its binges to give entrance to the
slender, dark-robed figure which fal-
teriuuly went forward.
'My precious Eleanor I" nalpn ex
claimed in a low voice, but wun ev
erv word distinct and clear, "if I lov-
d you when I bade you good bye
ue lung month ago, I worsnip you
ow ! When I read your letter 1
lost no time in comioz to vcu ; as it
uvthing could make you less dear
o uie 1 and bebide, ruv darling, all
thai you wrote ia that letter I kaew
or.g ago."
Tbeu Eleanor.found her voice :
"You knew Iodkuko ?"
"Yew ; wben your grandfather first
suruiiea that I loved you, be told
me all under promise of secrecy
Now is my Eleanor content?"
Y nb a long etgh of perlect nappi
ness. tieanor suuerea nersen to do
drawn once more into ber lover's
arm, aud ia ber lustrous eyes, up
litted to bis face he cculd read tbe
depib ot tbe love which filled ber
heart, and which bad only been in
tensified by the trials be had under
gone.
Although Eleanor's sensitive na
ture shrunk from tbe idea ot a joytui
wedding festivity eo soon after the
sad death scene she had wituebsed,
t-be could not withstand Ralph's lov-
ug entreaties; and no one ever
guessed tbat tbe sweet face beneath
tbe bridal veil (witbal it was a little
pale,) bad lately been clouded by a
depth of anguish such as few in a
loo? life have ever known.
"Did 1 not tell you Mrs. Hamil
ton." said old Mr. Stearns, "that if
yuuog Ogden was what he ought to
be, bow it would be, how it would
end ? I see he is of the right stuff.
Let me cmzratulate you, mv dear
friend, on tbe surety of your grand

The conflict in Maine is finally

Tbe Fiiz-Jobn Porter case, will in
all probability cune an animated dis
cussion wben bis case is properly got
before Congres-. Tbe Seiiate milita
ry committee re, ort a bill.for the rein
statement of General Porter to his
former rank and seventy five or one
hundred thousand dollars thrown ia
for disloyalty to bis country in the
hour of its need. This is tbe way
the Democrats are goiog to compen
sate him for causing the defeat ot the
Union armies at tbe battle ot Bull
Ran. General Logan dissents from
the proposition to reinstate Fuz
John Porter to bis former rank, with
back pay, amounting to a large sum
of money. In tbat General Logan
acts the part of a true soidier. Un
der tbe circumstances the punishment
inflated on Porter for his dereliction
of duty at tbe secon ! battle of Bull
Ron was very mild and merciful. He
could have sayed tbat battle and tbe
lives of many a soldier, had be obey
ed orders, and moved bis troops as
directed by his superior, bat he dis
obeyed tbe orders giveu bim, and tbe
battle was lost, witn terrible slaugh
ter. Had tbe rules of war been rigid
ly applied to bim at tbe time, tbere
would be no Fiiz John Porter to be
Beige Congress aud tbe National
Treasury under tbe sympathy of Dem
ocrats aud rebs, who have rerx ember
ed his act of treachery, for tbe reason
tbat it gave advautage to tbe enemy.
By his distention ia this cae General
Logan earns a fresh need of praise
from all loyalists.
As soon as the Porter case is con
cluded in Congress some descendant
or admirer of Benedict Arnold should
move for a resolution of thanks for his
patriotic services while in tbe United
States Army.
Tbe tone of the Democratic press
the country over and especially here
at the capital of tbe Nation, has been
unfavorable to tbe Parnell Dillon
exploit in behalf of suffering Ireland
Tbe Republican press on tbe contra
ry, reflecting the true inspiration of
tbat party in its sympathy for the op
pressed and its habitual encourage
ment to tbe cause of liberty and pro
gress, bas wiib rare exceptions, ten
dered the most cordial welcome to
tbore gentlemen. Aud it is a sig
nificant fact tbat, while the move
ment in Ibis community bas been
carefully guarded against the en
croachment of partisan influences,
its management has naturally devolv
ed upon Republican leaders.
Tbis will be a bier week for Ireland
in uasbiogton leople r.ere are
looking forward to tba Yorktown
centennial. Most of Governors of
tbe thirteen original stales have ap
pointed commissioners to represent
said states ia tbe matter of the cen
tennial celebration of Yorktown, Vir
ginia, October 1881. From the pro
positions and suggestions which have
been made, enoagh can be devised to
bave the celebration last one month.
One week is to be set aside for the
reception and entertainment of tbe
French guests; an extensive parade
grouud will be laid oat, and festivi
ties of all kiods, concerts, &c , provid
ed for day and night. A tormul invi
tation will be sent to the French
government to participate in tbe cer
emonies, aod the French Society in
New York is now in correspondence
on the subject It is understood that
tbe desceodents of Lafayette will at
tend. A French fiVet aod at least
one regiment of French troops are
expected. It is proposed to select
thirteen ladies, one from each of the
thirttea states, who will inaugurate
a series of Yourktown tea parties
througout tbe country. These ladies
will probably meet at OM Point. Va ,
during tbe cominar summer, and sr
range tbe p'ogramme. Representative
Goode, bas bad an interview with
the Secretary of State; Mr Evartsex'
pressed tbe greatest interest in the
celebration, and said tbe State De
partment would in its correspondence
with tbe reach Government, mak
a strong point of its importance, and
the earnest desire of tbe United
States Government, that the French
would take an active and hearty part
in tbe ceremonies, it seems to be
the intention of Congress to help this
ceieoration.
Public Printer Defrees, publishes
statement regarding tbe dissatisfac
tion which exists among some of tbe
employees of the Government print
mar office under his charpe, because
tbey are not paid for leeal holidays
wneu iney ao not wors. lie says:
"As aa appeal has been made to
Contrress on the subject, until a law
bas been passed directing me to dis
tribute tbe public money, to penona

expense."
Tbe town is still full of live Tndi
ans in search of tbeir riabts, and new
arrivals are expected from the far
West. Perhaps no Indian delegation
was ever in Washington whoctme
so directly to the point of tbeir peti
tioo, obtained so readily what they
asked for, were so soon ready to zn
Dome as tbe riute delegation, which
was bere for only a week. It was a
small delegation, being? limited to
Chief Winnemucca, Bisson Matchex,
a nephew, and Sarab Winnemucea,
the "Piute Princes," whose name
has frequently appeared ia Western
newspapers. Probab'y much of the
expedition with which business was
dispatched waB due to the fact tbat
Sarah Winnemucca speaks English
fluently, and there was therefore no
need that all communication should
be filtered through an interpreter.
Tbe Princess Sarah is a power among
ber own people. She received an
English education at Sao Jose, and
in thought, speech and religion she
is civilized and Americanized. But
she still retains tbe nature aod the in
stinct which give ber an insight into
Indian character and motives such
as no outsider could obtain. Her
ideas and opinions are valuable be
cause ebe is on both sides of tbe
question. For years she bas acted
as Government interpreter at tbe
agency, and during the Bannock
troubles she rendered tbe Govern
ment invaluable service by consolidat
ing and bringing into camp disaffect
ed and hostile Indians. Letters
which she has in ber posesMoo from
tbe Commanding Officer, testify that
under hardsbius in ih-t Geld to itbicb
most men would tuccuoib.t-be brought
in valuable information aud exercised
tbe beat influence over her people.
What she askes bere is aa honest
agent, wbo shall be the choice of the
tribe; and tbat the Piates that hare
been sent away may return to the
agency. She wants teachers and the
means of civilization. She is satisfied
with the result of ber interview at
tbe Department of the Interior, and
goes borne glad tbat she came. She
delivered, at one time, five lectures
in San Fraocisco, and the reports of
them there prove that, although she
is not a graduate of a Boston school oi
oratory, she bas a good platform
presence and a power of expression
and manner that was, on occasions
dramatic. IUther below medium
height, she bas a frank, pleasant
manner tbat accords well with the
strong, pleasant face tbat lights up
as she talks. She has tbe keen dark
eyes and the straight black hair ot
ber taTe.tutthe tair is piled op in the
rear sod banged in front in tbe most
approved style, aad the last symptom
of the "blanket Indian" is lost in a
brown ca-bmere walking dress, with
satin trimming and a bunch of red
gold at the throat Oa the whole,
Sarah Winnemucca is a living refu
tation of the argument that an Indi
an woman cannot be civilized.
Receptions are all tbe go now and
will ba kept io full blast until Lent
begins. On Tuesday the President
had bis second levee. Under tbe di
rection of Mrs. Hayes, tbe v nite
House bas grown to be a "homely"
charming place, anl the great rooms
bave a look or occupancy never oe-
fore distinguishing tbem. The night
was bad, bot tbe weather baa no ei-
feet in diminishing the crowd ; the
entire lower floor was open, and
along the walls, trailing from chan
deliers or set in pots, were flowers,
vines and tronical plants, with the rich
colors of our National standard, mak
ing a pretty background for tbe flo
ral decoration. Mrs. Hayes is a
most remarkable women, aod it is a
perfect study to stand and watch ber
daring the presentations made on
such busy evenings. She has a gra
cious word of welcome and a kindly
smile for those of high degree as
those most lowly born ; as cordial in
her gretiog to Sir Edward and Lady
Tborton aa to the poor conotrymn
aod bis wife who timidly followed in
the footstepts of the representative
of Her Maiesty. Indeed, if tbere
was a difference, it was in favor of
the sby, illy-dressed couple, who
shuffled along as if uncertain of their
r'ght to stand amid tbe glitter and
show aod pomp of the world's splen
dor. One of the most brilliant bops nt
the season was given at tbe National
note! on Friday night It was a
leap year affair, admirably managed
by the ladies, at which the gentle
men behaved with becoming modes
ty, and bore tbe honors of belleship
blosbingly. Ia fact, observance f
the strictest propriety was exacted
from the dear creatures, none bing
permitted to present themselves un
less suitably chaperoned aid certain
ly not allowed to walk across tbe
ball room unattended, or otberwioe
to expose their tender characters to
comment. Some of tbem had grown
alarmingly fragile and become sud
denly helpless, demanding tbe most
assiduous attention. Their delicate
bands could scarcwly hold tbeir hand
kerchiefs, and they required constant
fanning and a world of waiting on.
yet the appetites they developed
were by no means so delicate, al
though they insisted upon being ta
ken to tbeir mothers as eoon as sap
per was over. Among tbe many ele
gant toilets worn by tbe gentlemen
it is impossible to particularize.
Most of their costumes were biased
and gred in the usual places, with a
notable absence ot rnfflas. Tbey
were generally of tbe severely sim
ple style, without much trimming
and all short or walking-length
White shirt fronts appear still to be
fashionable, and several were gar
nished with huge aoquets. collarettes
of lace, or neck chains. Many affect
ed a urecian bend, and a few more
gloves. Tbe toilettes of the ladies
were exceptionally elegant, the mu
sic good, and tbe sapper, with
its fruits, ices and more substantial
viands a triumph of the cuisine.

KEMISISCE.tCES OF OCNESAL GRANT.

He lived on a dispatch boat on tbe

all I could to interest bim He was
very anxious about tbe war closing ;
was afraid we could not stand a new
campaign, and wanted to be around
when the crath came. I have no

used to say Seward swayed him, or

ing his own course, aud they wiib
bim. It was tbat gentle firmness iu
carrying oat his own will, without
apparent force or friction, that form
ed tbe basis of his character. He
was a wonderful talker and teller of
stories. It is said bis stories were
improper. I bave heara of tbem,
but I uever beard Liuco'u use an im
proper word or phrase. I bave some
times, wben I tear bis memory call
ed in question, tried to recall sued a
thing, but cannot. I always found
him pre-emiuenily a clean minded
man. I regard tbese stories as exag
gerations. Lincoln's power of illus
tration, bis humor, was inexhausti
ble. He bad a story or an illustra
tion for everytning. I remember as
au insuaco, when Stephens, of Geor
gia, came on the Jtff Davis Peace
Commission to City Point. Stephen
did not weigh more than eigbty
pouuds, and be wore aa overcoat
tbat made bim look like a man of two
hundred pounds. As Lincoln aad I
came in, Stephens took of bis coat
Lincoln said after he bad gone, "I
say, Grant, did you nonce tbat coat
Aleck Stephens wore 7"
1 said "Yes." "Did you ever see,"
said Liucoln, "such a small ear of
corn in so suoall a shuck?" Tbese
illustrations were always occurring
in his conversation.
"Tbe darkest day of my life," said
the General, "was the day I heard
ot Lincoln's assassination. 1 did
not koow what it meant. Here was
the rebellion pot down in the field
and starting up in tbe gutters; we
bad fought it as war, now we bad to
fight it as assassination, Lincoln was
killed on the evening ot tbe 14th of
April. Lee surrendered on tbe 0i.b
of April. I arrived in Washington
on tbe 13th. 1 was busy sending
orders to stop recruiting, tbe par
chase of supplies, and to muster out
tbe army. Lincoln bad promised to
go to tbe theater, and wanted me to
go wiib bim. While I was with tbe
Presideat a note came from Mrs.
Grant saying tbat she must leave
Washington tbat night. She wanted
to go to Burlington to see onr child
ren. Some incident of a trifling na
ture had made ber resolve to leave
tbat evening. I was glad to have
tbe note, as I did not want to go to
tbe theater. So I made my excuse
to Lincoln, aod at tbe proper boar
we started for tbe train. A a we
were driving a!oog Pennsylvania
avenue a horseman rode by us on a
gallop, and back again around our
carriage, looked iuto it Mrs. Grant
said : "There is tbo man wbo sat
near us at lunch to-day with some
other men, aad tried to overbear our
conversation. He was so rade that
we left tbe dining-room. Here he is
now riding after us." I thought it
was only curiosity, but learned after
wards n was Booth. It seems 1 was
to bave been attacked, and Mrs.
Grant's sudden resolve to leave disar
ranged tbe plan. A few davs later
I received an anonymous letter from
a man, saying be bad been detailed
to kill me! that be rode on my train
as far as Havre de Grace, and as
onr car was locked be could oot get
in. He thanked G jO he bad failed
I remember tbe conductor locked our
car. but how true tbe letter was I
cannot sav. I learned of tbe assaa
sination, as I was passing through
Philadelphia. I turned around and
took a train tor Washington. It was
the gloomiest dy of my life."
A question was aeked whetber
Lincoln's presence was in connection
with tbe army direction. ".Not at
all," said tbe General, "I mepely
told him what I bad done and what
I meant to do. I was then making
the movement by tne left wbicb end
ed in tbe surrender of Lee. Wben I
retornod to Washington. Lincoln
said, 'General. I half suspected that
movement of yours would ead tbe
business, and wanted to ask you, but
did not like to.' Of course, I could
not have told him if be bad asked me,
because the one thing a General in
command of an army does not know
is what tbe result of a battle is un
til it is fought I never would bave
risked my reputation with Mr. Lin
coin by any such prophecies. As a
matter of fact, however, my own
mind was pretty clear as to what the
effect of the movements woold be. 1
was only waiting for Sheridan to
finish his raid around Lee to make it.
Wben Sheridan arrived from tbat
raia, and came to my quarters, I
asked him to take a walk. As we
were walking, I took ont bis orders
and gave tbem to him. They were
orders to move on the left and au
tack Lee. If the movement succeed
ed he was to advance. If it failed,
he was to make his way into North
Carolina and join Sherman. When
Sheridan read this part, he was as I
saw, disappointed. His countenance
fell. He had just made a long
march, a severe march, aod now tbe
idea of another march into North
Carolina, would disconcert any com
mander even Sheridan. He, bow
ever said nothing. I said: 'Sheri
dan, although I bave provided for
yonr retreat into North Carolina in
tbe event of failure, I bave no idea
you will fail no idea tbat you will
go to Carolina. I mean t end this
busiuess right here " Sheridan's eye
it np, and be t-aid, with eutbusieai :
1 'Toat's the talk. Let us end tte
business here." Bat of coarse 1 had
to think of the loyal North and if we
failed in striking; Lee it would hare
satisfied the North for Sheridan to go
to tbe Carolioas. The movement,
however, succeeded, aod my next
news from Sheridan was tbe battle
of Five Oaks one of the finest bat
tles in tbe war.
"I am always grate fal," said the
Genera, "'bat Mr. Lincoia spent tbe
last, or almos: tbe last days cf h s
life with me. His coming was al
most an accident One of my people
said one day, 'Wby don't you ask
the President to come down aod vis
it yon V I answered that tbe Presi
dent was in command of the army
and could come wben be wished. It
was then hinted that the reason be
did not come was that there bad
been so much talK about his interfer
ence with Generals ia tbe field that
be felt delicate about appearing at
headquarters. I at once telegraphed
Mr Lincoln tbat it would aive me
the greatest pleasure to see bim. and
to bave bim see the army. He e.ni
at once. He was really most anx
ious to see tbe army, aad be with it
ia its final stroegle. It was aa im-j
mente relief for bim to be away trom
Washington. He remained at my
headquarters until Richmond was
takeu. He entered Ricbmond ana
I went after Lee."
Improvement or Heavy Horses.
From the earliest time to the pres
ent day it bas bean a great misfor
tuno and loss to mankind that so lit
tle attention has been paid to the
breeding and rearing of a more per
fect aad powerful race of horses for
heavy farm aad road work, aod tte
use of the city dray and large express
aud truck wagon.
Poets, from tbe sublime Job down
to tbe high-spirited Byron, bave been
profuse in their descriptions and
praires of the horse for war, the
chae, aad tbe course; while histo
rians, travellers aad sportsmen have
beeu ever eloqaent over tbem in vol
umes of prose. Strange tbat the
most general! v useful of all tbe differ
ent breeds of horses should, with a
few exceptions, be iguored aud pass
ed by in silence, and so much be
written and xpoken of others which,
although requisite for special pur
poses, aod worthy ot I igb admira
tion, have contributed less to tbe
benefit of humanity. But fortunate
ly a great cbange ia this respect has
taken place witbin the past few
years ia Europe as well as in
America.
A numerous society, composed of
nobleoieo, the landed gentry, aud
aruiers of .Scotland, has recently
beeu formed f r tbe purpose of im
proving tbe breed of tbeir larger sort
of horses Tbis society takes the
name of Clydesdale, aud tbat distin
guished nobleman Earl Duumore bas
been devoting a considerable part of
bis '.iuie during tbe past two years to
ediiiojr a Stud Biok of tbeir horses,
classed alrto as Clydesdale. Tbe firot
volume of this has already been pub
lisbed, aud the matter for the second
is collecting.
Euglaud is now zealously follow
ing tbe laudable example eel her by
Scotland for what bas long been
kuown as tbe Sbire and other of ber
best large breeds of borses. Tbe
Prince of Wales, Etrl Elleemere, and
other noblemen are giving no little
attention to tbe getting ont of tbeir
Stud B.iok, ad tbe wbol landed in
terest of the United Kingdom is fast
waking up to tbe importance of im
provement of this mo.it useful of all
their breeds of horses.
Witbia the p-tsi three years 200 to
1000 guineas ($1000 to $."000) has
beeu tbe coinoi u price ia Great
Britain for select beavy horses f -r
breeding purpoe-i, aud even 1500
guineas ($7500) ba been refuse 1 'or
a few ol tbe very choicest,, wnile 50
to SO gaineas ($230 to $400) is the
ordiuary price ot those for larin aud
dray work alone. In France, Bel
gium, Holland, and a tew districts of
Northern Germany, prices have also
advaoced considerably, and greater
attention is given than formerly to
the improvement of tbeir horses, all
of wbicb shows the rapidly increased
interest in tbe subject abroad. Nor
has this matter been neglected in
America, particularly ia tbe past four
years, during which large numbers of
powerful heavy animals bave been
imported into Canada and the United
States trom Grtat Britain and France,
with a few also from Flanders. Tbe
Clydesdale breed has been more gen
erally preferred for Canada, while
the Percberoa and the Norman have
taken precedence in oar owa coaa
try. For the Percberoa aad Normaa ia
America a Si.ud Book was oublisbed
iu 1877, by Mr. J. H. Sanders, of
Chicago, Illinois A revised edition
followed the next year, of 212 large
octavo pages, handsomely got up,
with numerous Sue engravings. Tbe
otject of tbis Stud B ok is to pre
serve an accurate record of the males
aod females imported from France
and tbeir full-ored descendants, po
tbat tbe public may not be imposed
upon hereafter by unprincipled deal
ers palming off tceir iuferior grades
for full-breds. A. B Allen, in Har
per's Magazine.
Term Ciwh.
A Wood-vard avenue policeman
was, tbe otber day, halted near tbe
City Usll, Detroit, by a two hun
dred pound womau with a parcel in
her band, and she requested to be di
rected to the store where they s
mottoes. 3.e asked ber which par
ticular store she wanted, and she ex
jUined :
"Well, I can't tell. My old man
came to town yesterday, and I want
ed bim to buy tbe motto of 'God
Bless oar II me.' lie got in some
where where tbey told bim that styl
ish folks no longer hung up tbat mot

Sbe uarolled ihe parcel aod held
up a card oa wbicb was very tastily
painted :
"Don't ask for credit Our terms

"You needn't grin," sbe said as
sbe rolled np tbe card again ; "I'm
