bors living on the East side. Mrs. G. keeps
a goat, Mr. W. does not, but he has a grass
plot at his front. Mrs. G. has none, yet she
wanted to pasture the goat there. W. was
unwilling to have her and forbid the goat

' coming on his premises. _Mrs. G. tied a

string to the goat and let him run over the
boundary line. This made W. mad and he
went to G. and spoke his mind freely, G.
spoke her mind freely too and emphasized it
with a stone slung at W’s head which,
striking in the temple was as a period to his
forbearance and he clinched G. who resisted.
There was a tussel, so lively that, by com-
parison, the fights Of Kilarney cats are no

soon as she got unclaWed from,W.' The goat

In the opinion of many who heard it the

Church in behalf Of the Increase DI the Min-
istry was not presented in a business like
way by Rev. Mr. Whittlesey who, instead
of giving his bearers the bright side of the
question, held forth those features which are
dark, and then invited contributions. A

The pump fastened to the South railing of
the bridge near the draw by which water is
taken from the river to sprinkle village
streets was broken down Tuesday night. If
the rascal who did it had had in him less
Whisky and more water, even though it were
salt, he might have let that pump alone.
Gangs of men are taking seed oysters from
the river 'every day. People on the Depot
road observing how long these men labor,
and knowing the new local law regulating
the quantity ask, “If only one bushel per
tide is the,quota for one man what need is
there of employing dredges.” Will the sc-
lcctmen make note?

them there. The merchant went to New
York and of that house bought the very
berries he had tried to buy here at 2 cents
less per basket, paid railroad fare and freight

party afterwards saw a crate with his name
on in front of the merchants stere, and when

England’s ,Position Officially
Declared.

LONDON, July 21.——Ea'rl Granville, secre-
tary of state for foreign affairs, early this
morning sent an ofilcial dispatch to Lord
Duffcrin, ambassador at Constantinople, con-
taining the British government‘s declaration
in reply to the Porte’s answer to the inquiry
note of the powers. In this declaration Great
Britain pronounces the bombardment of
Alexandria by Admiral Seymour a legitimate
act of self-defense against warlike operations
of_the:native military chiefr,who were covert-
ly defying constitutional authorities,- for
whose support and protection the govern.-
ment of great Britain was pledged. This
part of the declaration is made against that
portion of the Sultan’s note in which be ex-
plains that his refusal to intervene with
troops in Egypt was based on the fact‘
that the use of troops were avoidable. Con-
tinuing the declaration Gra ville says that
use of force to end the in stable condi-
tion of affairs now existing in Egypt
and brought about by the disloyal action
of the military party. England would
much prefer that the Egyptian disorder
should be suppressed by the -soldiers of the
Ports alone, but the disorder cannot be al-
lowed to continue, and if the Porto finds it
impracticable for Turkey to send trOOps into
Egypt. then England must devise some other
measures for the purpose of restoring order
in Egypt. In regard to the canal declaration
Granville asserts that England desires that
the canal shall remain open and unrestricted;

quietly governed and absolutely free from-
the predominating influence of one power.
In conclusion the declaration of Granville
asserts that British interests in Egypt re-
quire that‘ perfect order shall exist in that
country and that the order shall be main-
tained by a government to which all powers
canl agree and which no one power shall con-
tro . ’

“The Living Skeleton” died last week.
His name was Martin Avery, age 46, and he
was born in New York State. He was a
married man, but had not seen his wife for
years. He suffered from dyspepsia, and,
gradually wasted away until he weighed less
than fifty pounds. To gain a support he
finally went on exhibition. His case was a
very strange one, and the best physicians
have been unable to explain it.‘ He is said
to have been utterly tired of life and anxious
to die.

Carefully collected data show that since
the 4th of July and up to the 19th instant no
less than two hundredand thirteen deaths
have occurred in this country from wounds
inflicted by the so-called toy pistol,—4the
most of them resulting in the direct form of
lockjaw. For an article that is sold ass
plaything this may be regarded as a tolerably
efiicient weapon, with large possibilities. For
example, if the enterprising post traders were
to introduce them freely among the young
redskins on the plains, the Indian problem
would soon settle itself.

a young girl, a letter in which she expressed

President is confirmed by the production of
the document, now in the possession of Gen-
eral Preston, 01 Lexmgton, Ky. It was ad-
dressed to a daughter of Governor Wycliffe.
and contained a playful description of the
gawky young Lincoln, to whom she was be-
trothed. She said: “But I mean to make
him President of the United States all the
same. You will see that, .as I always told
you, I will yet be the President’s wife.”

 

Tennyson’s Home In Surrey.

Some twelve years ago Tennyson built a
house on the northern slope of Blackdown, a
lordly hill two miles to the north-east of our
village, and just opposite Hindhead, these
being the two eminences which guard the val-
ley cast and west. The house is a large, im-
posing stone structure, built in a free treat-
ment of domestic Gothic of the Tudor period,
the entrance being a large porch with five
pointed arches. The laureate 01111th as soli-
tary here as the most confimed anchorite,
since his is the only residence on the hill. A
carriage road winds up at Blackdown on the
western side as far as Tennyson’s, enablinz
too many persons to. come near the house for
the poet’s pleasure. Very many distinguish-
ed men are slowly drawn up that hill, on fly-
in g visits to the laureate—the Duke of Argyle
and his Scotchgillie being on the ascent when
we‘ were last that way. _

Tennyson naturally dislikes to find persons
creeping around his grounds, and plucking
leaves from his plants as mementos, as they
constantly do at Freshwater. Once, seeing a
face peering at him while eating his dinner,
the exasperated poet left the table, exclaim-
ing that he could no longer take his meals in
comfort without being watched.— The Can-

Collision on the Sound. ‘

an Yonx, July 19.—The‘ steamer Rhode
Island, of the Providence Line, was run into
this morning when of! Huntington, by the
steamer Alhambra, of the New York and
Halifax Steamship company, bound from
this city to Halifax. The collision took place
at half-past two o'clock, but fortunately was
not attended byany loss of life. the only per-
fim injured being the colored barber of the

bode Island, who was asleep in a chair in
his shop at the time. He was crushed into a
Ipacc about two feet square, and so hemmed
in by timbers that it was necessary to cut_
them away before he could be released; His
injuries, however, are not fatal. The Alham-
bra struck the Rhode Island on the port side,
just forward of the paddle-wheel, and, glauc-
ing along, tore out the wheclhousc and some
of the upper works,completely demolishin
the wheel.-- The Providence, of the Fol
River Line, was near by when . the accident
occurred, and running alongside of the Rhode
Island, the passengers of that steamer were
transferred to the Providence, which then
took the disabled steamer in" tow. About
8, o'clock this morning the City of Law-
rence came up and took the Rhode Island
in tow, the Providence bringing the passen-
gers of the disabled steamer to this city,
arriving here shortly after 11 o'clock this
morning.

the balance of $2,000 in round numbers
will be used for putting the campground

condition by observing the ease with which
the stem parts from the tree. If on taking
hold of a peer and lifting it. the stern readily
breaks away from the spur-to which it is at-
tached, the fruit has received all'the nour-
ishment it can get from the tree, and the
sooner it is gathered the better. Pears are
sent to market in crates and in half-barrels;
especially fine specimens are sent in shallow
boxes, only deep enough for a single layer of
fruit, and each peer is wrapped in thin white
paper. Extra specimens of any of the stand-
ard kinds, will bring enough more to pay for
this extra care in packing. The edrly va-
rieties mature quicker after gathering than
the later kinds, but all should reach the mar-
ket in a firm and hard condition. As with
all other fruit, it will pay to carefully assort
pears. Make three lots, firsts and seconds
for market. and the third for keeping at
home—for the pigs if need be, there is posi-
tively no sale for poor pears—American
Agriculturist for August.

the confectioner’s the swain noticed in the
window a placard bearing the announcement
“Ice cream 81 per gal.” “Well,” said the

“that’s a pretty steep price to charge for one
gal; but, Marin, I'll see you through, .no

A Hint about Weeds.

In harvesting Indian corn and wheat, we
cut them long before the grain—theseed, is
ripe; When the grain in either is fully
formed, the stalks are cut; experience has
shown that theripeningiprocessgoes on; the
stalk contains nutriment to perfect the grains
and it does this after the plant is cut away
from the root. Indeed, the grain thus treat-
ed, often comes to greater perfection, than if
the plant were left until the seed is fully
ripe. What takes place with these crop
plants, also occurs with weeds. Many weeds
if out up while in flower, still have nutriment
enough in their stems and leaves, to perfect
and. ripen a crop of seeds. It therefore
happens, that the more cutting up of many

ground, does little towards their extermiiia-
tion. The common Purslane—or “Pusslcy”
for example, has remarkable vitality. its very
succulent stems will remain alive for weeks,
and even continue to grow after they have
been deprived of the root. It is one thing
to cup up weeds with the hoe; it is equally

’ important, and it should always be done in
gardens, to gather up the weeds by the use ‘

of a rake. and carry them to a brush heap
where they will ultimately be burned.—

great deal of work and at the same time can
have neat looking children by making dress-

The young mother of a first baby invariably
feels that she owes it to this child to dress it
for the first two years of its life in white;’-- It
is impossible to do this without expending
more thought upon it than should be given.

Go South, young man, and pick peaches.
In the Delaware peach regions there is a
scarcity of pickers and a demand for help to
prevent vast quantities of fruit from being
lost. The trees are said to be hanging down
with luscious peaches which are rapidly rip-
ening, and in one district it is said that
5,000 hands could be employed at good wages
in picking. The Work is light and pleasant,
the pickers are allowed to eat the best if they
choose, and are assured of good treatment
and a good time generally. Evaporations are
to be used this year to a greater extent than
ever before, and the poorer fruit will be
dried, leaving only the best to be sent off.
Arrangements have been made fer distrib-
uting the crop quickly and widely, and it is
believed that the country will be betterjupo

plied than ever before.
