    A Plucky Woman.
A MAINE WIDOW ABLI ru TARS CAIIE Ort
BIUMUaI:
Jast bef 're dusk, one evening, a
brown-1 and pleasant-looking wom
an with a short, well built figure and
firm step fattened teelamp, contented
looking bay horse in front of the Bos
ton tea store and tossed a molasses-jug
out of her wagon. She worn a widow',
veil and shawl.
-There„ said - a
gentlenum, 'is one of
the most wonderful mien in the coun
try—Mrs. Osgood, ;of BEinot Centre, the
woman-farmer.*
So when Mrs. Osgood oamp out of
the store with her gram arms fall of
molasses•jng, salt-buz and this and that,
the Journal ecribeomran La ply his in
terrogations;.-
'How much hay will you cut this
'ear?' -
"Twelve or fifteen tons. I have. cut
abut siz tons .alriluly. I commenced
mowing at seven o'clock this morning,
end - - mowed most o f the forenoon. I
spread, thirty:five oommon stacks of
hay,And After dinner got iu four good
orie-horso loads in season to get down
bore at four o'clock and market a load
of berriei.' •
'Du you cut your hay with a machine
or a scythe?'
ilßoth. I can mow• either way. I
haye'a one-home mower.'
yon have any help?' •
'Only what I get from the children.
There's a girl of fourteen years and a
boy of eleven years who help me a lit
tle.'
'ls the girl guise to make a farmer?,
don't know. I want to-make
farmer of her, but ahe says she' don't
like the idea very well.'
'How much of a !arm ba%e yoant'
have now about forty .acres. I
haVe planted this year half in acre of
onions, two acres of potatoes and three
fourths of an acre of beans, and 'sowed
half an acre of oat& I bage done all•
the work myself. I have run the farm',
five years, and I haven't paid out odi
cent, not one cent; for help, and I ain't
going to, either,' with much emphasis.
'Last winter,' she continued, went
down in the woods and cut and teamed
out ten cords of stove•wooil."
'Does your farmigay well?'
'Yes; it's beginning to _pay pretty
well now. It was all inn down when_ I
came there and commenced work.lt
only cut hay enough for a cow and a
horse. Now it cuts twelve tons. See
the ;difference? I have dug out the
rocks and leveled off the fields with my
own hands, so I sha'n't be thrown out
when I ride my mowing machine. I
keep two cois, a horse and a lot of
sheep, and there is a lot of hens runn
ing around.'
Mrs. Osgood then started old Dobbin
for home. Here is a woman who finds
time between planting her acres of po
tatoes and onions' mowing a dozen tone
of hay, chopping ten cords of wood' in
snow knee r deep, and all the hard work
of running a forty-acre farm, to take
care of the milk of two cows, make but
ter and bread, and do all the kneading,
cooking and sewing on buttons for a
family of children, and yet has nothing
to say about woman's wrongs or wom
an's rights.—Lewiston Maine Journal
Dios AND STlaila ix iiNCRRICA.—Iron
and steel indrastries are nevi active,
owing. to the railway revivaL Should
some of the Mexican or southwestern
schemes be found to, be premature the
market may experienoe a reaction
without, however, gawking seriously
any solid enterprises. In February,
1880, iron rails ' reached 868, their
highest . point. 'The importations of
1880`wera. the largest in our history.
Tinplates wire for the first time in
serted among iron and steel imports;
• but in the first four months of 1881
home production so carried it over for
- sign that the importations fell off one
half, being restricted by low prices and
the abiliiy to supply, the home market
with every thing but rails for =Medi
ate delivery. Spa niala and Mediterra
nean ports supplied most of the import
ed ore, which it is claimed is of super : .
for quality and is almost wholly used in
the manufacture of Bessemer pig 4ron
near the Atlantic Coast. Twenty-three
States are making pig iron, while there
are only eleven works making Bessemer
steel ingots, and using twenty-sil l con
verters. The rails were first made here
in 186714 fill orders: It is pro bable
that this year the'number and capacity
of these works will be insreased, and
1,250,000 net tons of rails will be- pro
duced, to be increased to a quarter of a
million the year following.
The Thomas-Gilchrist basic pricess
has not yet been practically introduced,
though at two establishments its early
c. use is probable. More Bessemer steel
is now made here than in Great . Britian.
Street rails figure conspicuously in the
production of the year, amounting to
16.894 tons, of which 8,055 tons were
Bessemer. The Elmira Company uses
silicon tops. Nineteen States and one
Territory made rails last year, the in
" crease in this State being one-half the
increase over the entire country.
Blooms and billets from ore are made,
chiefly in the Champlain district of
New York,and from scrap and pig iron
in this State.

in the l3ernese Obetisnd, Switzerland,
where there is not a very picturesque
and well-appointed English church, the
services of the present season com
menced on Ole first Sunday after Trinity.
The Bps. R. P. Bent, chaplaitipto tem,
writes that on going into the church on
his arrival on Saturday, the 18th inst.,
he found that a pair of redstarts had
built their lest on the book-ledge un
derne.ath the prayer-desk (used also as
the pulpit) on One side of the chancel,
and were then rearing a brood of four
young ones. It seemed. he 'says, an
almost literal fulfillment of the words of
the psalmist in. Psalm, for
_
the nest is but slew feetfrom the altar.
He adds that the very pretty nest. every
particle of whioh must have been car
ried into the church by the parent birds,
has become an object of great interest
to both residents and visitors, and that

The Philos°PAY of EheielaiNg•
It is not often that arty one invents a
new kind of.swindle, but,the career of
the "PrOfessionat polnamist" who was
arrested a few days ago shown that the
very oldest forms of imposition can - by
new "combinations", be putln'enols
good use as to seem_ übsolately novel
Bigamy and forgil.ere both very old
Omen !NOE - is a new thing for any one
to to bigatay as a basis, for for
gery, though when It is explained the
thing seems simple enough. Women
are,.it is well-known, easily deceived
by adventurers who have a goes/ ad
dress, and consequently there, is noth
ing remarkable in the fact that such .s
man should succeed_ in getting a- wife
in- the first instance. But when this
was once acoompliahed all the rest was
plain sailing. The subsequent wives
on discovering that they were not leg-.I
ally married, were only anxious to do
all in thejr. foyer to hush matters up,
tad their male relatives appear to have
cordially' seconded them. If it had
been merely a qfiestion of I bigamy they
might not have done so; but in every
case the swindler, appears to have made
use Of hfis mat:Mond schemes as a ba
sis for pecuniary impisture, -and in
every case the self-love of the men he
had imposed upon led them, • after dis
covering the deception, to maintain a
discreet silence. In this way the man
was able to marry a dozen. wives, and to
maintain himself in great luxury for a
number of years, although it wu in the
power of a multitude of people to have
him locked up at any time. When his
.career of imposture was finally brought
to a close he was' an elderly man, and
had lived so long without detection,
and managed to have so much 'money:
always at commend, that he had • very
nearly established a character and
_posi
tion for himself in the community upon
which he preyed. i •
For i
siindlespi no country
presents such ti )field`, as the United
States,`owing to the entire freedom of
women from restraint of any kind. In
England, or atilt; more in France, it
Would have been impossible for a "poly
gemist" to make much headway with
his victim without a pretty searching
inquiry being made into his history and
position by her friends. His plan of
offering to "settle" a considerable ends
of money upon his intended wife would
neoewsarily have' led to a request for an
interview, with his lawyer, and as ex
posure could hardly have been avoided.
But American Women's idea on the sub-
ject of, marriage are very, vague, and ao
far from their families being able to
shield them from an adventurer, their
sense of independence is so strong that
they resent the idea of interference
from any quarter, and, as a general
thing, take the matter entirely out of
their families hands. We are accus
tomed to look upon this liberty and in
dependence as among the strong points
of American women; but they have
their bad side. In the ease of women
only hulf euneated, as the majority of
our women are, it makes them an easy
prey to plausible a&yenturers.
The career of be "polygamist,"
however, would have been impossible
if he bad had only feminine weakness
to work upon. He swindled a vast num
ber of men as well, , and their unanihng
nese; to expose him seems to be one of
the .itrikinc features of his case. We
cannot help thinking that what lay at
the root of .this unwillingness must
havebeem not merely a shrinking from
publicity and scandal. but also a posi=
five symyathy with the skill, audacity
and success of the swindler. Ina com
mercial age the faculty of getting mon-
ey is a quidity highly prized, and the
difference betefeen an honest and a de
praved ingennity in - this field is one
which to a great many people looks
rather conventional than otherwise. It
is so- common for people, for instance,
in Wall street, who have been uni3E4-
eallY denPunoed as reprobates at one
time, to turn up afterwards as "emi
nent financers" that any one may. well
be pardoned if he is consideyably con
fused as to the dividing line between
swindling and financiering, and if he
inclines in his secret heart to the be
lief that there his no difference but suc
cess. This sort of feeling about busi
ness must affect every one's mind more
or less and probably prodiice a tend
ency to look upon all brilliant and in
genious swindles with a sympathetic
eye. The sort of horror with which
pecuniary dishonesty was once looked
upon seems to have disappeared in,
great measure from the Anglo-Sazon
world. It is met with now chiefly a
mong "old-fashioned" or "conserva
tive" people. With most of us amuse
ment or curiosity is generally the feel
ing aroused by any new and startling
swindle. It II hard to understand how
the "polygamist" could have carried
on his operations so long unmolested,
unless a great many people thought
rather well of them, or at any rate
thought rather well of him for being
clever enough to carry them on.
Tire ABUSE OP POSTAL Cs#&—Ac
cording to the advices from Washing- .
ton, the Post Office inthorities have
determined to put a atop to the detesta
ble practices of that contemptible class
of persons who in their spite end
use the postal card tend the
mails for the purpose of annoying, in
sulting or injuring their acquaintances,
neighbors or real or supposed enimies.
Those who have recourse to this meth
od of gratifyibg their hate and aninlog
ity are the hyenas of society, and it is
a pity they can not be effectively pun
ished by denying them the privileges of
the Post Office altogether. In taking
ineaettres for their repression the Post
master Genend will receive the thanks
of the whcd country —the thanks not
:only of the inhabitants of the large
cities but of those of the smaller towns
allover the ' continent. The • smsdler
the community the larger the field of
,oPprations of- these social assassins.
One of the oreat objections made to
the introductlon of the postal card was
the facility its was likely to afford to
evil disposed: persons to indulge their
malicious , propensities in this way.
In devising n , plan to defeat • the pur
poses of these ,people Mr. James hie
effected a very wise reforM. As )anon
as the contemplated order is issued
postmasters will be required to deStro3i
all offencive cards upon notioe from.the
person to whom they-are addressed,
so that a repetition of the annoyance of
being made the recipient of one will be
hardly possible. The officer either at
the point of mailing or at the point of
delivery,' or both, may be notified, it is
ithder — stood, by the aggrieved party, and
they will thereupon exercise the ut most
vigilance in excluding the offensive
missive from the mails, : The ads-

situated upon the east bank of the

Thirty or thirty-five miles west of

than 100 feef in width) they have a
population of 6000. Every industry

of the river, 'there is little of the , pip
