THE GOVERNOK-S DAVCIITCn.

l.ivB became weeks and month?, , ere on shore
how good it is to meet the una,
and in the meeting leave behind the
monotonv that in long pea voyages
falls down upon the ship hue a
pall.
We enter the harbor of Horta,
chief city of Fa val, one of the Azores.
No time was lost in getting ashore.
Everybody sought out his best suit.
From the" hold of the ship great
trunks were yielded up, and silks
and diamonds and costly costumes,
long unused, were eagerly brought
into requisition. At last we were
ready, and soon our feet touched
the long desired land.
Horta as a harbor is scarcely
worth describing. Lying idly,
swinging on the waters, were a few
fishing smacks, the hulk of an old
American ship told a story of wreck
and disaster, while a email Danish
bri lately come in for a supply of
fresh water, said plainly enough in
its loneliness that few vessels enter
ed this solitary harbor, and then
only when they could not help it.
as in the caeo:' the India merchant
men, coming hither for a renewal of
provisions and some fresh meat.
The town itself looked as dreary and
as lonesome as the harbor. Here
and there a group of men might be
seen talking laughing and jesting
with one another but evidently, as
far as occupation was concerned,
practically unemployed. Some lay
on the wharves, indolent as the laz
xaroni of Naples, while others again
went up and down the narrow streets,
heedless of purpose and caring little,
to all appearance, how soon the day
might end. A few old women, in
long blue cloaks and heavy hoods,
were in the streets, and some bare
footed 6isters from a neighboring
convent made up the picture pre
sented for our inspection on our ar
rival in Horta. The account for the
email humbcr of persons we encoun
tered is not difficult, since the peo
ple of these islands seldom come out
in the daytime, leaving until the
cool evening the enjovment of their
recreation and what business trans
actions they comtemplate.
The news of our coming, however,
eoon spread and curious faces of
tuore curious people were to be sen
at erery corner, eagerly eyeing the
lately arrived strangers. Nor were
the "native unfriendly in their
manifestations in their professions
even of friendship. The Governor
of the islaud sent some of his slaves
to offer us baskets of oranges and
other tropical fruits. This kindness
we interpreted as a good omen, re
minding us, as it did, of the hospi
tality of Guacanagari to Columbus
on his arrival at San Salvador. Call
ing upon tne friendly and kind heart
ed stranger we returned our very
sincere thanks and were in turn re
ceived with most generous and po
lite attention.
The Governor's name was Fernan
dez Correjo. A Brazilian bv birth,
he had been a lona time at the Court
of Lisbon, where by intelligence and
breadth of view he had become dis
tinguished, endoaring himself to all
the court and miking Ilhis of
friends. He soon acquired pl.iee
and power, and was named (iovern

our beat cleared the distance sepa-
our friends and we

my heart beat wit a mad impulse
and singular contradiction more
than once, much os I burned to see
the object of my love. I wished a
hundred times "I had never left the
ship's side. Cut this can be explain
ed. When a man is only twenty

Before entering the Governrrri
house I saw my beloved at a win
dow, her eves bent in the direction
of the ship". "Why is she there?"
I said, in my inmost heart, "and
does she expect any one in particu
lar." One glance told me all. In a
moment I understood the reason.
What happiness a Waited me! 1 was
going to spend an entire day in the
society of her my heart adored.
Such a daV is eternity. How many
men have "never in the course of a
long life had twelve hours of such
bliss. ; .
Fernandez, when breakfast haa
been partaken of, showed us over
his vast estates. My immediate
companion was Leonia. A thous
and little occasion during the day
gave me the opportunity 1 so much
sought to tell my love ; never, how
ever, but silently and only after the
fashion that lovers know so well.
Finally, making :n allusion to the
country through which we wero
passing, 1 ventured to exclaim :
"What a charm reigns in this
island, and how happy 1 should be to
live here!"
"If the country pleases you 60
much," replied Leonia, "why not
remain here? But vou are only jok-
ins-. Moreover. I hear so much of
your beautiful country of France
that I can scarcely bed i eve in the
desire you express. Besides, I re
member all you said yesterday con
cerning love of country and the haj
Diness of serving it. You see you
gave me reason to tloubt you."
"Yes," I rejoined, in faltering
tones, "there are many things that
make us love our country for in
stance, a mothers love, a sister's de
votion, the kindness of old friends,
the old house where we were born,
the trees on the green where we
played all these things inspire
with a longing for and a love of
home. I "can explain yesterday,
though what I saiu then I will not
say to dav."
"Were I not afraid of teing indis
creet," replied Leonia. "I would ask
ihe reason of your sudden change of
opinion'
"And I, Donna Leonia, already
thought you had guessed the reason,
but. since you have not, aJJow me to
keep my secret"
The embarriss;flent visible in thu
face and in every movement of my
companion revealed more than any
answer she might have given. Fear

"I beg of you," said Leonia, "not

Now I hate him, ami in the future

Placing her ham! over her heart:
"There is something stronger here,"
said she than any human will. Last
night an angel with golden wings
came to me in a dream. He brought
me a casket of diamonds and pre

whispered joy and future happiness
by these gilts." r;
"This singular admixture of weak
ness and energy was not to be won
dered at in Leonia. Her mother
was born in Granada, and on her
side she was of Moorish extraction ;
added to this was a most amiable
natural character, and her Spanish
piido and African impetuosity made
her charming. She had read but

She wept over the misfortunes of
Inez and Dom Pedro, and the faith
fulness as well as the courageous res
ignation of the former wa9 in her
eyes perfection.
I told all my plans to Fernandez,
who received me with the greatest
kindness. He would not hear of
my leaving his house and ordered
for my accommodation a special
apartment The only difficulty I
lound was to be alone with Leonia.
Nocmi, however, the little mulatto
(.irl I havealready mentioned, was her
waiting-maid, and threw her we
managed to have long and private
intervie ws. She also carried our let

symbolical. In Brazil I had learn
ed the language of flowers and
what deliscious postry it contained
in the silent messengers ; speaking
more than articulate language, con
veying the longing of the soul and
what seemed infinite in loye. A
fortnight went by. Noemi was trust
worthy and had wonderfully sue

the vast audience in front, while
those who stood back of them shut
them in from the sight of the mass

of the correspondents who had been

the lady's name) sat dawn at the

that I was again at home. Visions

Illusion of an hour! I was and

as music wove its charm about me,
how much happiness, how much
wretchedness, still awaited m in
this island. At last our first visit

in hia- crop, and it was a bad vear
for old Thompson when he couldn't
ship a thousand bushels of wheat to
market at GO a bushel, and it
ranked A No. 1 when it reached the
Chicago elevator. If there had been
few millions more of pigeons he
would have come pretty near get
ting a corner on the Minnesota wheat
crop."
"I knew'a planter down in Ala
bama," said KiUrell, "who was ful
ly as sharp as that He trained an
alligator to work up and down the
river, and catch the little piccanin
nies that played along the bank.
The alligator rwould take the little
kids in his jaws and swim back to
the plantation. It was a dull day
that he couldn't corrall three or
four.. The planter raised 'em care
fully, and when they got big sold
'em in New Orleans at prices rang
ing from three to ten thousand apiece
He. was rolling in wealth when Lin
coln's emancipation proclamation
was issued, and after that the alliga
tor never did any more work. The
man is now barely keeping body
and soul together in Washington,
clerking in one of the Government
bureaus at eight hundred dollars a
year." '
. Judge Cary evinced tho greatest
interest in these wierd tales, and
edged up to the group.
' "These are curious yarns, gentle
men, but I believe them all. I had
a dog once, back in Nebraska, that
I kept to herd lumber."
"Leg pardon, Judge; did you say
the dog herded lumber?"
"Yes, sir, cotton wood boards.
We always kept a dog there to
bring the lumber in at night"
Everybody now payed the closest
attention, as they knew that the boss
was at rt ork.
"It was this way. Cottonwood
boards warp like thunder in the
sun. A board would begin to bump
its hack up about if in the morning,
and in about half an hour it would
turn over, By 11 it would warp
the other way with the heat and
turn the other way. Kach time it
turned it moved a couple of feet,
always following-the sun towards
the west. The first summer I lived
in Brown ville ovtr ten thousand feet
of lumber skipped ouf to the hills
the day before I had advertised a
house raiding. I went tq the county
spat to attend a lawsuit, and when I
got back there wasn't a stick: of tim?
bcr left It had strayed away in
the uplands. An ordinary board
would climb a two-mile hill during
a hot week, and when it struck the
timber it yquld keep wormin' in
ar,4 out among the trees like a gar
ter snake. Every hirnier in the
tattf had to keep a hephprj dog
to follow, bis lumber around the
country, keep it together and show
.heje it was jn tfl? morning. We
didn't need any Humes there for
lumber, Wo sawed it east of the
place w here we wanted to use it,
and let it warp itself to its destina
tion, with men and dogs to head it

For an early crop of peas plant
early in the spring, just os soon aa
there is no longer any frost in the
ground. Choose a southern expos
ure, and, if possible, a northwestern
protection. The warmer the place
the better. It is our practice, as far
as possible, to prepare our ground
the autumn previous, so that the
fertilizers may become finely mixed
with the soil. We have found old j
leaf mold a very good manure. We
prefer double rows for at least the 1
tall BOiU, which should be bushed j
when they are five inches high, hav- i
ing previously been hoed. The
rains will pack the earth around the
young plants, and it needs good stir
ring, fhe double rows we make
seven inches opart, and from that
to the next double about four feet
It has been our plan in order to cet
a good start to sift some earth and
fertilizers, get a number of pans or
boxes, soak the peas over night and
plant in the boxes two inches of fine
earth to a good sprinkling of soak
ed seed, one after tho other to the
top. The boxes are put in a warm
room in me sunshine or near a
stove, and the earth is kept moisten
ed with tepid water. When the
ground is ready the boxes are tak
en into the garden, the earth and
peas are generally dumped out, and,
as the peas will be found to have
sprouted, they must be carefully
dropped into the drills, with fear
that the sprouts may be broken.
Then they must be gently covered.
e plant peas so that they are not
more than a half inch apart, some
times almost touch, and our success
with peas has been very jrreat. In
fact we had tho vanity to try and
show our country neighbors that a
family can have plenty of peas, and
good ones. As to varieties our tastes
may be peculiar, but we do not like
the little, round, plump pea3, and
would rather take castor oil than a
dose of the old-fashioned marrow
fats. We like the wrinkled, creen.
sweet sorts, which, when cooked, are
surrounded with juice and eaten
with a spoon. The Philadelphia
pea is very early, and is a salable
early pea in market. For our per
sonal use we do not want it. The
American wonder is a nice wrinkled
dwarf pea needing no brush but
its coat is considerable, and we do
not propose it for any but the rich.
For a somewhat tall, early pea need
ing brush, give us the Alpha. It is
the ice cream of peas. It is very
early. One year it did not yield
well with us ; the next year it did4
The Premium Gem is our favorit?
early dwarf pea the mo&t satisfac
torily parly sort that 'wo have ever
Elanted. Next to that we like the
ittle Gem. No one can go wrong on
that variet'. It is dwarf. For safe
ty and for a general early crop we
commend it. For the later general
crop there is no choice. Of course

phampion of peas.
