Whatsoeverthey impart;

Sorrows Sent'by them are sweet—-
They know how to heal the heart;

What are my' white hairs, forsootb,
And the wrinkles on my brow ?

I have still the soul of youth—
Try me, merry Muses, now.

I can still with numbers fleet
Fill the world with dancing feet.

No, I am no longer young;

But my songs will ye, be sung,
Though I shall not live to bear.

Oh, my 1102-, that is to be. _

The European trade that is being opened
for green applesadded to the immense quant-
ities now being worked up by the large
number of drying factories throughout Mich-.
igan and Ohio, is extending the market to
almost all parts of the world. A Detroit News
correspondent says:

Many of the readers of the News may
not be aware of y the facilities of these fac—
tories or the modes operand? of handling the
fruits and vegetables in them. There is one
now running in the county of Lenawaree,
which has a capacity of 350 to 400 bushels
of apples in 24-hours. It gives employment
to about 60 hands, the most of whom are
women and girls. The apples are pared,
cored and sliced at once by hand machinery.
These slices are then spread on galvanized
wire screens and at once placed in the evap-
orator, or a chamber running from the top
of a large furnace in the basement upward
out through the roof 'of a three story build-
in . . ,

3The current of heatedvair is kept atas
near as 'pOssible to 240 degrees. These
screens of fruit rest on endless chans that
move upward at intervals of three to five
minutes, when a fresh screen is put in and
are taken 03 at the third story completed.
This dried or evaporated product is then
packed in pasteboard boxes holding from one
to five pounds, and these in turn packed in
cases of two hundred pounds each.

This company will work up, this fall and
winter, upward of 30,000 bushels of apples,
making near 150,000 pounds of dried fruit,
or, in other werds, reducing a bushel of ap-
ples to about five pounds of the dried prc-
duct. This has no semblance, when cooked,
to the common domestic dried apple, but
when the water is again restbrcd, it is the
same green apple again in all its freshness
of color. taste, and flavor, and as a conse—
quence, brings, where known, acorrespond—
ing price to green apples. The. cores and,
peelings are, by some of the factories worked

’ up into vinegar; this factory will make eight
hundred barrels this season.

Others make the cider into, apple jelly,
which is now being used in New York and
Cincinnati as the base from which is made
an endless number of jellies, such as currant,
raspberry. peach, pineapple, etc., etc., sim-
ply by adding the extracts to flavor the
apple jelly; and so perfect is the imposition
that experts are deceived by it, or, in
other words, cannot tell it from that made
from the fruit itself, with which it is only
lavored.

The great market now for these evaporated
fruits and vegetables—for any of the garden
vegetables can be preserved in this way—
ls in the West,in the mountaineous and min-
ing region,-andtlie apple product brings as
high as 1% to 14 cents this fall in Chicago,
in car load lots. '

This trade must increase, and other fac.
tories than those now at work be added, so
that the orchardist need have no fear of
the market, in ordinary seasons being over-
stocked.

Potatoes were last year successfully pre—
pared by this process, as was also sugar corn
In quite large quantities.

Q Why it ould not a manufactory similar
to the above pay here in this vicinity. There
are very few sections of the country where
larger quantities of all the small fruits are
grown. These fruit drying factories get
their wire drying frames from the George-
town Wire won... of Gilbert, Bennett & Co.

The Southern correspondents are letting
out agnod-ms’nyiamiiy secrets in their let-
tars convenience. ones: them writes
to memorandum. and courier this con-
fessién aboutlth'c unpopularity of the newly
revived. doctrine or State sovereignty:
“Thirty-two millions out of forty millions of
p60plé.in.tliisvcountry swear that these Uni-
ted States lis‘ a nation. and that they are hell
bent on making the facts: cunform to their
fancy. I This iathcir evident intention, and I
really do inot'see hOw we of the South are to
preventthem or save ourselves and them
from the censequence's ‘of their determined
fanaticism.” .He isalso careless enough .tO
saythstrby his veto “Hayes has saved his
party from defeat at the next election,”
These glimpses at sentiment inside the dam
ocraticfcsmp'show that‘the party realizes
fully the sized the blunder it has made.
Perhaps also they furnish an excuse for the
continuation-of the blundering, for it may
bethatmeing‘that defeat is inevitable the-
leaders wish to make it a big one,

Bow Iowa Became a Territory.

 

Ever since the world began, woman has
played a leading partgin all great historic
events. American history is no exception
to the rule. The honors which fall to
Mollie Stark, Aunt Bailey‘and numerous
other women are well known. Later on it
is recorded that the Quakeress Behecca
Wright, helped gallant Phil. Sheriden to win
the day at Winchester. Woman has been
the central figure in poetry and song for
ages, and moulded with her deft. finger kin g-
doms and crowns, and unmade them as
well. She has been an important factor in
the legislation of the country, and to the
wiles of a woman is ascribed the existence
of Iowa. The bill for the formation of the
territory of Iowa was prepared and present-
ed to Congress by Geo. W. Jones. Among
its most bitter opponents was John C. Cal-
hour), tbeniu the zenith of his power, and
the master mind of Congress. It soon be—
crmc apparent to Mr. Jones that Calhoun
would crush his bill,and he therefore rnv
sorted to strategy. Mr. Jones was then in
his prime, and a man of attractive presence
added, to which were graces of manner,
which gave him great prominence in society.
He was a great favorite with the ladies.
There was at Washington a lady who was a
special friend of Mr. Calhoun—in fact, she
had him “on astring," as it were. Jones
decided to pull sbc string. He at once
played the agreeable to the lady, and soon
by‘his gallantry, won from her the ex-
pression one day that the hoped something
might happen that she could reciprocate
the favors. That was Jones' opportunity.
He explained to her his Territorial bill, and
how anxious he was to succeed with it,
but he feared the opposition of Calhoun
who would kill it if he had the opportunity.
The woman entered into the matter with
zest, and told Mr. Jones to send her his
card when the bill came up, and she would
take care of Mr. Calhoun. When the bill
was taken up Mr. Jones sent his card to the
lady in the gallery. Soon after Mr. Calhoun
was seen flying out of the hall, and did not
return for several hours. In the meanwhile
Mr. Jones had secured the {passage of his
bill. Mr. Calhoun never knew why his fair
friend was so especially anxious to secure
his undivided attention on that day. Thus
was Iowa born of woman.

The following fifteen causes for the gen--
eral depression of business in England are
from the Pall Mall Gazette, a tory organ:

First, six had harvests in ten years; sec-
ond, vine‘ disease in France and other wine—
growing countries; third, famine and pesti
leuce in India; fourth cattle disease all over
Europe; fifth, the Franco-German war,
which disordered production and the econ-
omy of demand and supply for two years
or more; sixth, the vast standing armies in
Germany and France; seventh, the appro-
hensions of European war, which began in
1875; eighth, the apprehension of other
wars even to this day; ninth, the collapse
of railway construction in this country and
the consequent loss of market for British
iron; tenth, the reduction in cest of trans-
portation and cheapening of American food
products in the British market, consequent
upon excessive railroad extension in the
United States; eleventh, the loss to British
capitalists by foreign loans, amounting to
$1,000,000,000 in seven years; twelfth, the
complete revolution in the British iron and
coal industries within ten years, due to
causes apart from tariffs and currencies;
such as the substitution of Bessemer steel
for iron, the exhaustion of mines, etc.;
thirteenth, a bad bankruptcy law; four-
teenth. a vicious development of banking
credit; fifteenth, an apparent determination
on the part of British workingmeu to do less

deterioration of work since the Introduction

of the piece system.

This extra session of Congress will cost
the tax payers of the country not less than
two millions of dollars. _

The Rev. Robert Collycr has accepted the
call to the pastorate of the Church of the
Messiah, New York, and his salary has been
fixed at $5,000, with $1,000 extrato cover
his expenses in moving from Chicago,

Mr. Stanford, the California railroad capi.
talist, owns a farm of 2,000 acres near San
Francisco. Upon it are sheds and stables
stretc ’ for a mile, containing three hun-
dredt oughbred horses, worth more than
$200,000.

An exchange says: “You can’t advertise
enough in a week to last a whole year, any
more than you can eat enough in seven days
to last 365; and yet some so—called business
men and boarding-house keepers seem to
think so.”

A new line of exclusively freight steamers
has been establishédr between New York and
Havre, under the name of the Merchanta’ Ex-
press line. The pioneer steamers of the line,
four in number, are owned in Denmark, and
will sail under the Danish flag.

The catch of menbaden at the east end of
Long Island last week was the largest ever
known. It is estimated that a total of from
30,000,000 to 40,000,000 was taken by the
vessels engaged in the fishery in l’sconic and
Gardiner’s buys and the ocean on the south
side of the island.

It. is said that the reason why higamy is oi
so rare occurrence in Hungary is that ores 1,1]

was sentenced by the court to live for two
years with both wives. The punishment was

 

- considered cruel,but it had the desired effect.

A gentleman who owns property in Missis-
sippi and has spent the lastyearin that State.
says the condition of affairs in that State is
deplorable. Bankers refuse to lend money
on real estate security, and merchants find it
impossible to make advances to planters, tak-
ing the crops as security. The entire credit
system of the State is destroyed.

Here’s the thing in a nutshell : “The north
crn Democrats," a southern Senator is credir..
ed with saying, “have put us in this hole,
we did not seek it; we only cared reall f0}
the repeal of the test oath: but the nail ern
Democrats said in caucus that they edul'd‘not
carry Ohio and New York unless 'the supervi-
sor law W119 repealed, and we, \vere forced
into this business.”

There are in the world some two
Bible societies, and their issues are 111111335:
The British and Foreign, and American
Bible Societies have together sent forth
nearly four millions of volumes. during the
past year, offering sixty-four new TTJDSIHI-
tions of the Word of God. Seven hundred
and forty thousand copies of the Scriptures ‘
in whole or in part, has been called for in
Russia.

Working Men and'Religion.

Christianity is the only system that was
for the poor. There are men sometimes
who have control over masses of people and
tell them that Christianity is not the poor
man’s friend, I tell you that what religion
has done to civilizc this earth has been by
being the poor man’s friend. ' Jesus, the
great Captain of our Salvation, came from
above and laid himself down besides us—-—
his great heart of sympathy beside our
heart. He came down, and you cannot i" d

Of late several copies of a paper called The
Congressional Record have been received at
the Tribune office. We don’t know who
sends it and we don’t want it any longer.
There are no pictures in it; no cookery de-
partment with recipes for pie ; no instructions
how to make tatting or spatter work ; no in-
structions how to take care of babies; no
jokes ; pothing but bad speeches bya few in-
significant gentlemen. -We don't see how the
concern exists; it has no advertising patron-
age, and not a single letter setting forth the
virtues of a baking powder or a cough cure.
If the friend or enemy who sends the thing
to us will let us know the subscription price,
we’ll paiy promptly to have it'stopped.:-—Bis-

‘llooray! The jocund spring is here,
With its prismatic flowers ;

Once more the girls‘ new suits are spoiled
By oft-recurring showers.

Exit the ulster, compiler-ward ,
Enter the coy white vest,

Gum—boot and seal—skin both are shot
The muff obtains a rest.

Barnum, the frequent, too, is come,
With all his motley crew,

The woolly horse, the bearded girl,
The bird of Phllahoo.

Meandering with a cheerful grace
The boulevards along,

The grateful water~cart uplifts
The hydrostatic song.

The roysterous oyster sleeps in peace,
As does the tuneful clam”;

The old sheep trembles at his doom—
‘To pass for young spring lamb.

Pipe, pipe, ye frogs, your vernal song,
For jocund spring is here I

Ye tadpoles, raise a joyous shout-—
And, boy, another beer!

to jaw at her. It was in' some other lan‘

motion of their mouths and their actions.
It seems as though the men were trying to
