"Two-thirds of the British Peer
age date no farther back than 1670."
The British say that Russia can
not borrow enough money to carry
on a great war.
"Oub interests in Asia, and Africa,"
are the subjects now uppermost in
the minds of government circles in
Europe.
"The large discoveries of diamonds
of late years, hare reduced the price
of those precious stones from thirty
to forty per cent"
. The Democratic brethren have an
odd expression to announce that a
Republican has been moved from of
fice. They say, "his head hag been
chopped off."
Do you know what effect too much
liquor has on the human 6ystem?
Do you know what effect gluttony,

Cleveland's new Secretary of the
Nary has already sent a number of
war ships to cruise in the waters
about the Isthmus of Panama and
Central America.
There have already been filed two
hundred thousand names as appli

even tempered a man must the first

to smilingly consider all the applies,
tions?
It is reported that Russia has a
great debt on hand, now, and is in
no condition to borrow money to
carry on a war with Great Britain.
Perhaps the report is au English
story to injure the credit of Russia.

Mrs. IIcst has been at Harrisburg
working among the members of the
Legislature, to induce them to enact
a law to add the study of physiology
and hygiene, to the common school

The bill l-aa passed.
Mest'0 has an army of 15,000 sol

which may le called a good sized
war cloud If Guatemala and France
and Co., propose to gather up the
Furronnding country, they will learn
that it cannot be done by trickery
and by tbo issuing of proclamations.
Cleveland takes hold of the South
American question as if he had been
training under the South American
policy of Blaine. America for Amer
icans is the watchword of all Ameri
cans and while they are not "carry
ing a chip" on their hat, they are in
earnest that -the Monroe doctrine
shall be euforced.
The Philadelphia Bulletin says:
The Independents continue to growl
over Secretary Manning's choice of
Higgins, the disreputable Baltimo
rean. as his Appointment Clerk.
'.They had nothing to say against
Cleveland's selection of Manning as
Secretary of the Treasury, though
they might have known that he would
choose men like Higgins for his sub
ordinates. Manning holds the l t,
and will defend his clerk against all
assailants.
The Philadelphia Times of March
19, remarks, that a Pittsburg loafer
who ppoke disrespectfully of Gener
al Graut on Monday evening was
dragged into a stable by the crowd,
a rope put round his neck, the end
thrown over a bearu and the man lil t
ed off his feet twice. He was soon
out of bieath and blue in the faew
and was at length released and sent
home in a carriage. It niav confi
dently be predicted that this particu
lar Pittsburger will nevermore take
General Grant's name in vain.

Exploring along thii wad? a party
of our men came upon six dead and
four wounded Arabs lying under a
bushy dwarf mimos tree. The sol
diers had au interpreter with thein,
and the Arabs were called upon to
surrender and come out That they
said they could not il; would the
soldiers therefore come and take
them. The four wounded men still
held their spears in their hands.
Verv good," said our soldiers. ':put
down your spears, and we will see
you are well treated and do all we

swer of the four Arabs came fierce
and concise : "Put down our spears,

Martini-Henrys. You can guess the
rest. It was again, as at Teb and

graph. The Western Wheat Crop.
MiLWArKEE. Wis., March 17 S.
W. Tallmadge has received the fol
lowing report from James Baynes,
United States Statistical Agent of
D tkota: "The wheat crop of 1884 is
pretty generally marketed. In many
counties it is reported that there is
scarcely enough for seed and bread,
if distributed. It will require 2,500.
000 bushels for heed and 1,250,000
bushels for bread until the 1st of
September. Many farmers who ex
pected to bold their grain for much
higher figures than has yet prevailed
this year sold on the advance in Jan
uary. The weather since March 1st
has been very fine, and there is con
siderable wheat being sown, and
much more could be if farmers de
sired to, but many think it better to
wait a while, fearing that a bard
freeze may yet come. There will be
but little wheat marketed until after
seeding, when the farmers will sell
what little they may have to 6pare.
It is evident there will not be an in
crease in the acreage of wheat in Da
kota this year."
Mappered.
There is a mysterious infatuation,
however, among oltiee seekers of in
experience in lue hung oi papers.
hile I sat beside the chief clerk
this morning, one of the unheralded
callers of tbe far-ante room, a visiter
belonging to what they call class
three, was shown in. He was a man
above medium height: he had a
round, bullet head, black, scared-
looking eyes, a furiously red nose
and a thick mustach, painted the
blackest of shades of lampblack. He
removed his Boft, black hat showing
a smooth, bald head, and advanced
awkwardly to the side of the chief
clerk and presented a large envelope
to him. The chief clerk grasped the
envelope, picked up a blue pencil and
without glancing at the contents of
the envelope he indicated the partic
ular pigeon bele to which this bulk
of papers whs to travel. All this was
done nke a fi .bh. Tbe man stared
stupidly as be saw his precious win
ter s wore ot papers pitched into a
basket of similar documents. He
gazed interrogatively at the chief
clerk, who sai l to him pityingly,
"Your papers will be placed on file,
ir." "But I want an office," said the
man; "I want that postmastership.
He pointed to the endorsement on
the envelope, the name of one of the
most prominent and wealthy of the
Senators. The chief clerk strain re
plied, "Your papers are on file, sir,"
and bowed to tbe poor man, who
turned about and walked out with a
nio6t helpless look upon his face,
completely staggered by the formu
la, and the idea that perhaps the
placing of tbe papers on file was
equivalent to a future appointment
Washington Latter.
rattea States Senators.
A correspondent of the Baltimore
American writing from Washington,
since the inauguration, says: The
special session of the Senate has
been an objeot of interest for tbe
past week chiefly on accouat of its
functions in confirming nominations.
Now, however, that the nominations
come in slowly, the Senr.te is more
of an object of interest on account of
the personnel of its new members.
The fact is that there is a feeling that
no political volcano is likely to open
its crater at once. The attention
turns to new faces. The two men
that are most asked for are
EVASTS AXD STAFTORD.
The first has the greatest wealth
of any man in the Senate ; the other
has a wealth of intellect quite as great
It is a little odd that these two men
most asked for occupy seats just to
gether, and seem likely to become
fast friends. Perhaps there is the
same sort of sympathy that obtains
between the peculiar characters in a
show. Anyway, tbey not only sit to
gether, but are seen chatting togeth
er a great deal during the sessions
and at other times. Probably Mr.
Sanford feels the need of some of the
wealth of mind and words that Mr.
Evarts has, as much as that gentle
man recognizes the value of that oth
er wealth which the Senator from
California has accumulated since he
went to the golden shore in '49.
Stanford is rather a large man. with
rather red face, dark hair only a lit
tle mixed with gray, which ia combed
back from the forehead and temples
in true Andrew Jackson style. His
full beard is brown and gray, the lat
ter making a pretty good showing,
though scarcely indicating a man
who has seen as much hard work as
has this man, fifty times a millionaire.
There are supposed to be several
millionaires in the Senatemen worth
some of them, three or four millions
but Stanford could buy them all.
And yet he does not seem to be at
all proud He chats cheerily with
his neighbors, talks horse with those
who like horses, pays attention to
what is going on about him, even the
minor details, and wears clothes of a
very ordinary cut and quality. He
is living quietly at a hotel, making
no display, and evidently does not
propose to be a second labor in any
sense. As to JJlr. Hearts, everyooay
has an idea how he looks. Yet, there
are some surprises in Ir s appearance.
He is smaller physically than you
would suppose from his portraits
and his nose is Ion rer. It has a more
inHinati acquaintance with his chin
than his pictures generally represent.
Get a side view of his f ice. wrinkled,
thin and smoothly shaven, and it re
minds you of some old woman you
have seen. He dresses in a black
suit that does not fit him any too
well, and seems to be perfectly at
home in the big chair, which is big
enough for two or three of him.
KPOOXER
of Wisconsin, is another of the new
ones who attract a good deal of at
teution. "That boy , aH the specta
tors term him, gives evidence already
that he is going to make his mark m
the Senate. He is a little fellow,
physically, short and slender, with
smooth boyish face, looking some
thing like Senator Gornan, and very
much like hi in in size. It is odd to
6ee him and the senior Senator from
his state. Mr. Sawyer, togethei. Saw
yer is big and fat not so tall, but
very broad with white hair and
and whiskers, while Spooner is young
and boyish in appearance, with smooth
face, black hair ; in short be is quite
a baby beside the millionaire lumber
man, who introduces him everywhere.
TELLER,
the new old senator from Colorado,
is attracting a good deal of attention
just now by his very vigorous bout
with Senator an Vycfc, ot Aebras
ka. His very plain face, neatly-dress-,
ed figure and bead of very black hair
combed straight back from his high
forehead, are not unfamiliar to tbe
frequenters oi tbe Senate and de
partments for he was a member of
the Senate before he went into the
Cabinet He is a very vigorous
speaker and made it interesting for
Van Wyck from the start
of Kentucky' who succeeded "Cerro
Gordo" Williams, is a familiar figure
here, having been so long in the
House. He is a rather handsome
fellow, with something of a brigand
look, probably caused by his very
heavy mustache, which will run a
close race with Senator Logan's if
that gentleman comes back to the
Senate, though Blackburn's hair and
mustache are not so black as Logan's.
ETSTIS,
of Louisiana, is another familiar face.
He was here six years ago as Sena
tor, and was succeeded by Jonas,
whom he succeeds again in his turn.
He is a broad shouldered, bluff look
ing old fellow, a good deal like Beck,
of Kentucky, in his looks, with bis
bushy chin whiskers, pretty well
marked with gray, and a full head of
iron-gray hair. He took great inter
est in the "Back-bone land grant"
squabble, sitting beside Tan Wyck
constantly, and coaching bim as the
fight went on. Indeed, it is suspect
ed that he set Van Wyck up to tbe
job of making tbe attack upon the
course of the Interior Department
PATHS,
of Ohio, is very tall, very slim, very
cadaverous in appearance but rather
a sprightly old man. He does not
look 60 old nor so rich, as you would
suppose from what has been said of
him. He appears to be a very pleas
ant gentleman, bright and chipper
and not at all too old to do six years
good service. Une would . suppose,
however, that a man with his reputed
wealth might get clothes that would
fit better than his do. Yet if Mr.
Payne is satisfied, it is to be suppos
ed the rest of Washington will stand
it He is not handsome, and is by
no means the figure his predecessor
in office, -'Gentleman George" Pend
leton, was. Jones, of Arkansas, is
another figure tolerably well known
here. He is tall and well-proportioned,
with broad shoulders, rather
sallow complexion, clothes that fit
him fairly well brown hair and
bright intelligent way.
WILSOR AKD WALTHALL.
Wilson, of Maryland, has not yet
been seen enough to be much noticed.
The last of the new Senators was
sworn in, in the person of General
Walthall, of Mississippi, who succeeds
Mr. Lamar. He is tall and slim,
dark and rather fine looking, a typi
cal Southerner in appearance, and
reputed to be a very smart man.

We use large qualities of foolscap

how that foolish name became attach

Charles I of England granted a mo

set aside by the Parliament that
brought Charles 1 to the scaffold;
and, by way of showing con tempt for
the King, they ordered the royal
arms to be taken from the paper, and
a fool, with his cap and bells, to be
substituted. It is now over two hun

Selecting Corn lr Planting.
A subscriber In Stow, Mui., asks us to
tell him from which part of tha ear the best
kernels are obtained for planting, as some
tell him to select the top kernels, others
those from the butt, while still others rec
ommend planting all tbe kernels on the ear.
It is well known that many careful New
EDgland farmers barn niAde a practice of
rejecting the small kernels from the tip of
the ears when shelling seed corn for plant
ing. Some hire been particular t reject
tbe crooked , ill-shaned bntt kernels also.
We know ot no one who has attempted to
investigate tha question systematically, ex
cepting Dr. Sturterant, Director of the
New York experiment Station. lie told us
in personal conversation, several yean ago,
that a certain eccentric farmer.- who had
gained a reputatioi lor raising good seed
corn, matte a point for planting all the ker
nels that grew on the exr, and claimed it
necessary to do o lj keep a variety from
changing its character. Within the past tew
years. Dr. Sturterant has made several ex
periments for the purp isoot testing the rel
ative vaiue of corn from duIVrent nris of
the ear, and the results are puoli.shed m the
New York Station reports lor the years IS
C':! and 1S83. In the first report named is an
account ol in experiment in plaiting a strip
of land, dropping tbe corn lengthwise of
tne rows, in such a manner that the kernels
would nisintain the same relative position
to each other that they held in the ear; that
u to say, the Imtt koiw-ls ware ail ai una
end or tbe rows, tbe middle kerneU coming
next in order, and the tap kernels at tbe op
posite end of tbe rows. It was thought
tnat, in this method of arrangemement,any
variation in the character ot the product
ould be noticeable to the eye during the
groTth ot the corn ; but little, it any diff.-r-ence
would be discerned. The butt and tip
kernals germinated and grew just about in
tbe aa-iie proportion as the kernels from the
middle of the cob.
In the accurate calcnlations made from
tbe harvested product, tbe following surpris
ing results were shown :
1. Tbe tip kernels were the moat prolific
of good corn.
2. Tbe butt kernels were mora prolific of
good corn than tbe central kernels.
Tbe tip kornels bore longer eirs than
the other kernels, tbe butt kernels the next,
snd the central kernels tbe shortest. This
fm-A was apparent to the aijht as the differ
ent lota lay on lb- --nnl hnsking.
4. The mereh oam trora the b l.t
were dixtinctly Iic.ii.t taan those from lue
central kernels.
5. The butt kernels furnished mora un
merchantable corn than did tba central ker
nels, and tbe central kernels more tbaa aid
tbe top kernels.
1 lie same year another plot was planted.
one-half with perfect seed from selected
seed ears, tbe other half with good kernels
from very interior looking ears, the yield in
both experiment being an near uniform that
no conclusions coul l be drawn in tavor of
the selected ears over those which were
crooked and twisted. From experiment
contused in ISM, it seems reasonable to
conclude that seed corn is equally good
from either portion or tbe ear, certainly that
the tip kernels are fully equal to other ker
nels for planting. In corn ears that are well
capped over at the tip end, the kernels hav
ing more room, are less compressed, and
take different shape from those on the mid
dle of tbe ear; and it ia quite probable that
thera is less difference in the actual weight
of tbe two forms than one might tnppo.se
from acasnal glance. Tip kernels that are
imperfect, or not halt filled up with starchy
material, would certainly start Into life with
less apparent vigor than kernels that were
