Tbey art- slpepin,; ! Who are Meepiiis?
Chiltirvii wearietl with their play;
Fur the stars of niiit am ietpiiig,
And the un lialli Blink away.

Tbcy are slept MVhi are sleeping?
Mortals, com pawed roinid with woe;
Eyelids, wearied out with weeping.
Close for very weakness now;
And short relief from sorrow
liarrassed nature shall obtain, .
Till they wake again to-morrow,
Strengthened to contend with pain.
They are sleeping ! Who are sleeping?
Captives in their gloomy cells; "
Yet sweet dreams o'er tuetn are creeping
With their many colored spells.
All they love again they clap them,
Keel aTin their long lost joys;
But the baste with which they grasp them,
Every fairy form destroys.
They are sleeping! Who are sleeping?
Mir-era by their hoarded gold;
And iu btney they are heaping
Getus and pearls of price untold;
Gulden chains their limbs encumber,
Diamonds seem before them showr;
Bui they waken frtn their slumber,
And the splendid dream is li jwn.
They are sleeping! Who are sleeping?
l'uUMja rumu. nt, soitly tread.
Anxious friends are fondly keeping
Vigils by the sleeper's bed.
Other hopes have all forsaken;
One remains that slumber deep;
Speak not, lest the slumberer waken
From that sweet that saving sleep
They are sleeping! Who are sleeping?
Thousands who have passed away
From a world of woe and weeping,
To the regions of decay.
Safe they rest the green turf under;
Sighing breee or music's breath,
Winter's wind, or Summer's thunder,
Cannot break the sleep of death.

"But 1 am ' a locksmith," said
Manwell.
"Nj matter."
"Are you wilting to live the life of
one who, with his hand.', earns his
daily bread ?" :
"1 am willing to undergo any thing
to be with you. 1 have suffered
enough. During these lat-lfew days
I have learned what it is to deptir
of being mated to one I love."
"Hut your mother your father?"
"Unless 1 am willing to leave
theiu for your sake I am not wonhy

"But the lops'of wealth, position,
of the surroundings f refinement ?"'
"Do not say anything more, I am
willing to leave) all lor your sake. I
am weary of being without you."
"Would vou Jie willing to become
my wife this day this hour? Your
father and mother might put obsta
cles in your way ?"
"I am willing this hour this
minute. They still think you are
wealthy as I did."
"Come, then, we will go on our
way with Ned, and become, before
the the world, what we now are in
spirit husband and wife; and then,

"Whither ytnj go I will go."
They were irtVrriid in a quiet way
in the little Wittering place chapel,
with ti e wicked Ned conniving at
the mischief. I
The next train sped them to the
city. i

"What do you mean ?" she de

chanical work, after having, he as
sured her, regularly served his time
at learning a trade.
Mrs. Manwell stood and looked at
him intently.
"Is this vour house?"
"Yes."
"And you are not poor, but very
rich?"
"You speak the truth, Mrs. Man
well." "And why did you play the jest
ii'MMi me ?
To see whether you really loved
me lor tny own sake."
"Ah. pretty, indeed ! And suppose
you do not love me?"
"But I do."
"Humph r
So there was a little family quar-

"Now invite your father and

Manwell, after the clouds had some

Is it not true? All that we girls need

Manwell lifted his fist and dashed
it through the air. He ground his
teeth, and, turning away, hit the
room, slanuniug the door violently
behind him.
His wife took off her hat and
cloak, and dung herself down at a
table, and buried her face in her
handkerchief. .
"The door opened again and Man

But at the street door he tarred.
He had to struggle with himself all
alone. .
Suddenly he turned and dashed
impetuously up the stairs, flung
open the door ot the room, seized his
wife in his urms and clasped her to
his heart. a
"My wife," he whispered in her
ear ; "such you are and ever shall
be, lefore God and before the
world."
"Now I begin to think that you
love me," she said, smiling in his
face. "You do hive me? Y'ou really
think you do, George?"-
He clasped her more tightly to
him.
. "Come, then," she said, "though
of such parents as these, poor as
they are, 1 should not feel ashamed
yet they are not my parents, but
have only played a part in which I
have instructed them. Shake hands
with them, George, they are worthy

Manwell took Ned's jeering very
soberly.
"Yes," said he, after a few mo

experience has taught me a lesson.

H. A.Holmes, of Chatfield, Minn.,
whose opinions on dairy matters in
Miiinerota, are taken as authority,
says, if his butler was to come in
half an hour, he would stop his
churn, to see what was the matter,
as he did not wish to chum in less
than two hours. It is generally con
ceded now, by a large class of good
butter makers, that an hour is quick
enough to churn, and very many
prefer one and a half or two hours.
There is another class of butter mak
ers who can not spend the time lo
churn, and every minute sj M over
half an hour is tune lost. 1 hey have
valuable pasture lands, Jersey cows,
worth from tlOO to $1,MXJ each, fine
barns to stable them in, a modl
dairy house with all the modern ap
pliances, and yet the extra hour
spent in churning when care and
judgement should be ued to pro
duce fine butter, is the straw that
breaks the camels buck. It is not
so only in this case, but in thou
sands of olhtrs. At this time of
) ear butter, as a rule, churns hard,
that is, it takes a long time 10 churn.
The cows lieing fresh milkers in the
spring, the globules of trt urn gtt
small r, the longer they are milked, j
and const quently the en am is hard-'
er to churn.
Cream placed iu large tin cans ri
pens very slowly in the fall of the j
year, especially if kept in a cool ,
place, before the ripening prtcts8
begins. Plenty of time must be
given, and the cream stirred ofien,'
that ihe temperature maybe alike,!
slid all of the cream ripen at the
same time.
The free use of a thermometer and
the certainty that the can is warmed
all the way through, very many
times, shortens the time of churn
ing. ;
If just before churning the tem
perature of the cream is raist d to Go
or 67 degrees and then stiried until ,
it is 62 degrees the churning will be
done much quicker.
Very many times the cream is
not a warm as it should be, the
cans being larj.edo not get warmtd
through and when the churning
t-ommerices the cream stands at 58

Pakis, January 6. Long before
dav break this morning the streets
from the Palais Bourbon to the cem
etery of Pere L:i Chai?e presented
an animated appearance, and as the
hour appointed for the funeral of
M. Gambetta approached thev be
came literally packed with a dense
mass of spectators all eager to pay
a last tribute to the departed states
man. Windows in the hotels along
the route had Wen hired at almost
any price and the trees and roof
tops were crowded, while the omni
buses and cabs were weighed down
with the weight of sight seers. Flags
draped with crape were displayed
almost everywhere, the drapery on
the fctulue of Siratourg in the Place
de In Concorde beimr, particularly
noticable. The deputations front
the various departments were enor
mous, and were massed in the Place
des Invalides, and along the Quai
I) Orsay to the Petit Bourbon an
area of 25,000 metres. Detachments
of special commissaries of police
gave direction to the ever increasing
mass of deputations, each anxious
to secure a good position in the pro
cesnion. and the spectacle of this
formidable army of sympathizers
was marvelous. Alsave the swaying
mass of human beings were banners
ami wreaths and drapery, while im-men-e
masses of flowers were bora
by many men on their shoulders.
THK BODY PLACED IN THE HEARS K.
The funeral car arrived at the
Qtiai D'Orsay, in front of the Col
onade.at 10 o'clock. It was preced
ed by six horsemen in black and
white uniforms and was drawn
by six handsome horses. The car
was especially designed for this oc
casion by M. Bustien Lepage, the
painter. It moved on low, black
wheels, streaked with silver, and at
each comer vases were affixed, in
which were burning perfumes, thus
shrouding the coflin in vapor. The
catafalque whs placed on it just as
it stood, and was literally covered
wih v reaths. The coffin, covered
with black velvet, was partially
hidden from view by tri colors drain
ed with crape and two natural
paiins, with wreaths of red immor
telles. .M. GdUibeita's hotly was
placed iu the hearse at 10.2U, amid
die booming of cannon, the heating
of drums and tlie sound of trum
pets, while the soldiers presented
arms. The procession started im
mediately thereafter. It was head
ed by the relatives and friends of
the deceased, the representatives of
President urevy, the Ministers,
Generals, Senators and others, while
the guard of honor surrounding the
catalalque was composed of the Re
publican Guard, with its band play
ing a funeral dirge, and its colors
draped. It is estimated that there
were nearly 200,000 persons in the
procession,cons.icuous among then)
being the Free Masons in full uni
form, and the advocates and students
of Paris. It was over two miles in
length.
A DEMONSTRATION FEARED.
At 12:30 o'clock the head of the
procession had reached the Boule
vard tie Sebaslopol, while numerous
deputat ons were still waiting in the
E-planade ties Invalides to take
their place in it. Despite the great
crowd the police preserved perfect
order through the Place tie la Con
corde, the Kue de Rivoli and the
Boulevard des Sebatopol. When
the Statue of Strasbourg was reach
ed a kind of hhutider passed through
the crowd ami it was feared that a
formidable demonstration was about
to break out From time to time
cries of "Vive la Republic," "Vive
la France," and even "Vive la Gam
betta." were raised by the great
crowd assembled on the pavements,
anil they werecaughtupand echoed
by ihe multitude in the rear. The
whole space between Champs d'Ely
sees, the Terrace des Feuiliaiits and
the Rue Royale was one mosaic of
heads.all uncovered, stretching lor
ward and motionless. Upon the
railing of the garden of the Tuiller
ies were men two and three deep
standing on the stonework, while
on the narrow ledge on tne other
side were others clinging to the rails
with one hand and frantically wav
ing their hats with the other. The
crowd along the Rue Rivole and
other lashionable neighborhoods
seemed cold and much more influ
enced by motives of curiosity than
the bulk of the populace. The only
building along the whole route
which was not draped was the new
Hotel de Vide, on the Rue Rivole.
SPEECHES AT THE PeRE LA CHAISE.
The cortege arrived at Pere La
Chase al 1:20 p. m. After the coflin
had been pland at the entrance M.
Deves, Minister of Justice, on behalf
of the Government said he saluted
the remains of a great citizen. The
loss of such a man caused a notion
al grief. The deceased had loved
France, and had had faith in her
destinies, even when hope seemed
to be a defiance of fortune. His
resolution not to let her abdicate
her place among nations would be
ever remembered apart from bis!
btroic defense, his political princi
ples ami profound veneration for the
will of the nation, commanded ad

MM. Brisson, Pejrot, Melivier,

addresses, after which the body was
carried into tlie cemetery, which was
closed to the public. The coffin was
laid in a temporary resting place

Washington, Jan. 10.
While the Fitz Johu Porter is.-Ue
has received earnest pressure in the
Senate, the House has been dilato
rily attending to the enormous
amount of work before that body.
With the exception of the army ap
propriation bill, nothing but minor
important bills has been considered
in the House. Even with the army
bill, and time as precious as it is,
the House could not refrain from
indulging in clap-trap political rem
iniscences. Mr. He wilt, of N. ,
"started the ball a-rolling" by ac
cusing the Republicans of purposely
cutting down appropriations with
the view of leaving deficiencies at
the close of the year to be supplied
by the next Democratic Congress.
Finally Mr. Cox, of New York, with
abortive wit, shocked the bet sense
of the House by referring in his
speech to the Guiteau doggrel "I'm
going to the Lordy." While the Re
publicans hissed him, and the Dem
ocrats were rather inclined to blush
for him, no one could see the appli
cation for the so-calied wit, Mr.
Reed, of Maine, in concluding the
debate on the bill, referred to the
speech of two (.Messrs. Randall and
Cox) of the most prominent candi
dates for the next Speakership and
said if their remarks were intended
to bring in votes for theSpeakership
then he would like to hear from the
remaining candidates for that posi
tion. Of the three days debate in the
Senate on the Fitz John Porter bill,
Mr. .Logan of Illinois, devoted all
but one half of a day to his speech
antagonistic to Porter. Much has
been written of this speech, but lit
tle can be said against it. Mr. Logan
did not show any personal vindict
iveness against Porter, but presented
his array of facts, obtained from evi
dence in the case. He spoke as if he
understood it, and that is more than
can be said of those who voted for
the bill. The supporters of this
measure tried to bring it tip yester
day, but it was finally laid aside to
be considered one week hence.
The passage of the Pendleton civil
service bill through the tlouse yes
terday without amendment was a
surprise to all and a disappointment
to half a hundred sons of thunder
who had prepared speeches on the
subject. The bill will doubtless re
ceive the President's signature and
Mr. Pendleton feels that he has made
an immense stride towards the
White House. But "there's many a
slip"
The whisky men are rejoicing with
exceeding joy ; they wou a decided
victory in the Senate on Thursday,
and they expect to have equal sue
cess in the House. It is believed
and feared that thev will have the
support of many members who have
been counted upon to oppose them
Several petitions wee presented
in the Senate adding to the large
number already on hand, for a con
stitutional amendment to prohibit
the manufacture and sale of iiitoxi
eating liquors. Notwithstanding
these petitions which are continually
submitted to both Houses, Congress
does not heed them, but goes on leg
islating for the whisky interests. An
illustration ot this fact is lound in
the w hisky bond bill which has just
passed the Senate. Indeed the in
consistency of some members of
Congress i apparent from the war
they present petitions against liquor,
and then vote directly to help the
interests of liquor men.
The Ways and Means Committee
of the House is working away and
taking pains enough to make a very
perfect tariff list ; but there is danger
that revision ot the tann will not re
vise that after looking at rice-fleur
with a microscope and giving cotton
manufacturers a new classification,
the appraisers will still go on using
their old copies of "Heyla imports"
with no reason in law lor not doing
so.
As it generally does ia everything
else, the Senate. got ahead of the
House on tariff legislation, for in the
Senate yesterday Mr. Morrill report
ed from the finance committee . the
bill for the revision of the tariff, and
the bill was immediately sent to the
printer. The general tenor of the
bill is a revisiwo in nearly every
branch of commerce. It is thought
that the early action of the Senate
will prevent the House from over
working itself on the tariff question,
for the latter body will now await
tlie printing of the Senate bill, so as
to obtain points to guide the House
in any further action.

ReHteeinett Prom Death.
This story is authentic It is
found in the memories of a Prussian
officer of distinction, who gives
simple, unaffected narrative of the
scenes and events through w hich he
passed, and who betrays nowhere
ihe least disposition to exaggerate.
Ihe I olio wing remarkable incident
he gives as it came under his own
oliservation. He was at the time on
the staff of General Wintertield, one
of the meet -skillful and competent
captains of the day, and Wintertield
was tlie general in command t the
time spoken of. Two soldiers had
been .condemned to death. In a
drunken condition at night they had
assaulted an officer of the line and
one of them had draw n a knife upon
him, but which one could not be
told. The officer had seen the knife,
but he could not positively say
which of the twain held it. And ihe
men themselves did not know.
Neither of them remembered any
thing about it. So both of them
were condemned to be shot. They
were both excellent soldiers, and
only one of them had been guilty of
using a weapot.. The officers of the
division, including him who had
been assaulted, a?ked that the men
might he pardoned. At length
Winterfield said that he Would par
don one of them. Only one had
held a knii'e, and only that one
ought lo the. He would pulilou one,
ami ihn men mj t tiie.u-.el ve- decide-
which ot them ItiU.-l be shot.
How shoU 'l the llecirloli he made?

The two men look their places by
the side of a big drum, and were to
throw the dice upon Us head. Two
dice were given them and a proper
box for shaking. The first man
threw two sixes. He groaned in ag
ony. He felt that he had consigned
his comrade to death. But when the
second came to throw he also threw
two sixes.
"Wonderful !" cried the lookers
on They were ordered to shake and
throw again. This time the second
man threw first two acts.
"Ho! Good ! Y'ou will live, Peter !"
But when Peter came to throw,
the dice presented those same two
aces.
And now the beholders were won
der stricken, indeed. Another throw
was ordered, and Peter threw a five
and a duce. The other threw a five
and a duce. Alter the excitement
had again subsided the men shook
once more. The first threw two
fours.
"Oh, now throw fives, and save
yourself, Peter."
Peter threw two four?. At this
point the colonel ordered them to
stop. He went and reported the
marvelous result to Winterfield.
Said he:
"Certainly. General, Providence
will have those two men saved," and
saved they were. The general dared
not oppose the wonderful fate of the
dice. It did seem providential, ai.d
so h? accepted it. And the redeemed
soldiers lived to prove that the sav
ing late had given back to Pru.-sia
iwo of the very best and bravest of
her sons.
Agricultural Machinery.
At a recent meeting of the Mas
sachusetts Board of Agriculture Mr.
James S. Grinnell contributed a pa-
Ser on the "Pngre?sof Agricultural
.lachinery" from the days when the
plow was a crooked stick to the
present, when man has partly learn
ed how to change implements of
war to those which contribute to the
welfare and happiness of the nee.
For long ages the cultivation of the
soil was the rude work of servants
and slaves. But many men of still
in mechanics were among the first
settlers in America, and although
compelled at the outset to look alone
to ihe soil for substance, they soon
begun to make for thtmselves the
useful ertieles of clothing and fur
niture neetltd in their plain homes,
and to build ships for bringing coin
forts and luxuries from the old coun
try and carrying agricultural pro
ducts with which to pay for the im
ported goods. Among the earliest
patents was one for making scythes
by welding a block of iron to the
cutting edge of steel, a form w hich
is practically unchanged. The
Ames shovel was also an early in
vention which has retained its form
and general character. The plow
began to be improved early in the
present century. Jethro Wood in
1819 invented an iron plow in parts
which drove all the other patients
out of use, but Thomas Jefferson
was the maker of the first plow that
was ever constructed on true me
chanical principles, a combination
of two wedges acting in different di
rections. The next step may be the
introduction of steam for tillage,
and the invention of implements
for lifting and pulverizing the soil
ready for the seed at one operation.
The disc harrows and smoothing
harrow are a great blessing to our
present farmers, and many thou
sands are made and sold every year.
The reaper and mower was invented
in 1828, but was slow in coming
into use until improved by Hussey
and McCormick. There were 170,
000 made last year. The twine
binding r-.fi per is the most perftct
agricultural implement ever yet giv
en to the world. The Americans
excel the English in the construc
tion of agricultural tools; ours are
lighter, cheaier and more effective.
The cotton pin lias worked a revolu
tion in the culture and manufacture
of the Southern staple, changing the
amount of a day's work for a man
from a few pounds to thousands of
pounds. The improvement in dairy
implements has recently been great,
and is workii g much benefit to tlai
rymen. Corn buskers are now so
improved that 40.000 were made last
year. Another valuable invention
is the manure spreader. No other
nation puts drivers' seats on farm
implement; we put them on almost
everything. The use of modern ag
ricultural machinery has given us
the opttortuhity to accomplish that
which has put us as a nation in the
front rapk'f eiviltziiioo.
