The prince rides up to the palace gates And ms eyes with tears are dim. For he thinks of the beggar maiden sweet Who never may wed with him, r or home is where the heart is, In dwelling great or small. And there's many in splendid palace That's never home at all. The yeoman comes to his little cot With a song when day is done, For his desire is standing in the door And his children to meet him run, For home is where the heart is, In dwelling great or small, And there's many a stately mansion That's never a home at all. Could I but live with my own sweet- ' heart ' In a hut with sanded floor, I'd be richer far than a loveless man With fame and a golden store, b or home is where the heart is, In dwelling great or small, And a cottage lighted by lovelight Is the dearest home of all.

It is' an. old saying that, "there is nothing certain in the world but death and taxes," but I didn't know that both of these afflictions came together They don't in Georgia and one of the comforts of dying is to get rid of taxes but it seems that in; some of the states and in many foreign countries, the biggest tax of all is the death tax. Many of the states have had an in heritance tax for fifty years but it didn't apply to children. It affected collateral kindred only legacies had to pay it, and all heirs who were not children of the deceased. But of late years this death duty this penalty for dying, has taken hold of all es tates worth over $10,000 and the government takes the first slice. This law is only two years old in New York, Massachusetts and Maryland, so far as children are concerned, and it has not been hvy on collateral heirs. A. T. Stewart's estate paid only $300,000. The estate of Mrs. Lenox paid $200,000, but if there had Deen chuaren, no tax would nave been paid. But now Jay Gould's estate has had to pay nearly a million under the new law: aQd there is a big fuss over it among the lawyers and some of the preachers. Some of them say it is right and some say it is an outrage on human rights. In Eng land and France and Germany and Australia and Canada this inheritance tax varies from 1 to 15 per cent, on all the estate in excess of $100,000. The idea seems to be that the de ceased got that excess without actually working for it. It was interest upon interest or by speculation or good luck and all the time he had the pro- j tection of the government, and in nine cases out of ten, his profits were believing it will . be read with interest somebody else's losses and now that : by our readers : he was dead, his heirs must .pour j Roanoke, S.

The prospect is mortal dim but there is some comfort in believing that it is there and is still drawing interest like my confederate bonds. " But the question of how much shall a man be allowed to accumulate and keep is looming up and will have to be settled before long bv American people. For the safety of the repub lie there will have to be a limitation of ' some sort. John Stewart Mills says it will have to be done. Andrew Carnegie says the state ought to take one half of all that a millionaire leaves behind him and this law would force him to divide out before he died and induce him to make his gifts to pub lic charities and colleges, while in life, like Rockefeller and Armour are doing now and like Peter Cooper and Peabody and others did do. 1 The Illinois Bar Association has declared in favor of limitation upon wealth and Mr. Stead says the time is near at hand when the children s in heritance will be limited to a sum j that will give" each an income 01 1 Too.oofi and nn mnre. It would I take about vooo.ooa to do that st 3 1-2 percent. That law would give 'Jay Goulds children $12,000,000 j which is enough I reckon to support them. The other $60,006,000 would ; go to to the state for hospitals and homes for the poor and the unfor tunate. But if that had been the law, Jay Gould would have divided his property long ago and so dodged the law or else he would have done some big thing with it that would have given hinva better obituary than he got. A much better law than Mr. Stead's would be a graduated tax not only on inheritances, but on accuinu- lations made during: life. If Mr. 1 - i Gould with $20,000,000 cair buy up judges and legislatures, as he boasts that he did, what could he not do with $100,000,000 or $200,000,000?

We reproduce the following letter, written by a Union soldier to his son, c! osed wi th h ea vy iron bars looking: out on the moat , or ditch, which is about sixty feet wide. The first room, or casemate, had .but one door and two large windows facing5, the inside or the tort. .The gunroom h id two doors leading in from ; the casemate. These were closed by heivy iron grated doors : and locked with pad locks, and at each door in the gun room with the prisoner, were two sentinels with loaded. muskets, and in the casemate were two more sentinels and officers of the guard, all of which were under lock and key, the officer of the day having charge of the keys. The guard was .relieved every two 'hours, and that, could, only be done in the presence 01 the cmcer 01 the day. The windows of the casemate were also grated with iron bars. The prisoners occupied every other gun 1 j- -.- . r 1 room, and the guards not on duty the intervening ones. . .... ..... There was a special guard mounted of eighty men for those three jjrison crs, and the -commandant of the fort could not give any orders of any kind to that special guard; in lact, he could not come . within its lines. There were four sentineis on the parapet overhead, four, on the glacis beyond the ditch, and six in the fort in tront of the casemates.. The above statement is just as I found things the dav ihat Davis was shackled. I repoi ted to Gen. Miles as the new officer cf the day. The General said he had special orders for me as to Jet! Davis. Having heard it rumored that morning that Davis was to be put in irons, I said to the General: "I think I can guess what it is, Gen eral." "Well what' is 1r, Captain ?" "To put irons ori 'Davis." He said: "That is it." 'I said : "When do you wish it done ?" ' He said : "The irons are not ready." Then I said : "Had we not better' put them on toward 5 x ------ evening?"' He said Yes," and I could send my" orderly to the black- smith s and : have' him "meet meat that time. He (Gen: Miles) showed , me part of a letter 1 he' had from Secretary Stanton, in whichr he said that if he thought the safety of Davis required it, he could put irons o Davis, or words to that effect. The matter was left optional with General Miles as to whether Davis should be put in irons or not. -. Just before the sundown relief I sent my orderly out for the black smith to meet me with the leg irons i at the casemate. Soon after I went down I found the smith; and his helper there. I then unlocked the door and told the guard to let them pass, that is, smith and helper. As I entered the gunroom Davis was sitting on the end of his cot or hospital bed reading his Episcopal Prayer Book, and as he looked up I said: "Mr. Davis, I have an un pleasant duty to execute." At the same moment, seeing the blacksmith with the irons, he said : "You do not intend to put fetters on me ?" I said: "Those are my orders." He said : "Those are orders for a slave, and no man with a soul in him would obey such orders." I then said: "Those are my orders." Mr. Davis said : "I shall never submit to such an indig nity." He then asked if General Miles had given that order. My answer was in the affirmative. He said he would like to see Gen. Miles. I replied that the General had just left the fort. Davis then asked that the execution of the order be post poned, and I should telegraph to the President in. his name. I said : "Mr. Davis, you are an old soldier and know what orders are. It is need less to say that an officer is bound to execute an order given him." Davis said it was obvious that there could be no necessity for such an order to make his imprisonment secure. I said : "My duty is to execute this order and it is folly for you to resist" Davis's answer was that he was a soldier and knew how to die, and, pointing to a sentinel, said: "Let your men shoot me at once." A few moments after that he placed his foot on a stool ; his quiet manner led .me to think .he would not resist. I then said : "Smith, do your work." As the blacksmith stooped to place the clasp of the shackle around his I ankle Davis struck him a violent blow that threw him on the floor. He recovered and at once made for Davis with his vise and hammer and would have struck him if I had not caught his arm as he' was in the act of striking. A moment - after that I saw Davis and one of the sentinels struggling, both having hold of the musket, Davis just below the shank of the bayonet. The next instant the sentinel had wrenched the musket from Davis' hands. I then ordered the soldier to his post and reprimand ed him for leaving. I now saw there would be trouble, so I ordered the officer of the guard to go out and get four of the best men of the guard without side-arms and have them to report to me at once. A few minutes after four stalwart soldiers made their appearance. I said : "Men, I wish you to take Mr. Davis, with as little force as. possible and place him on the cot, and hold him there until the smith is through with his work." As the men advanced Davis struck the' first or foremost mani but all four instantly closed on him sand shoved him on the cot. Davis showed un natural strength ; it was all the four men could do to hold him while the blacksmith riveted the clasp around his ankle, his helper holding a sledge hammer. The other clasp was lock ed on with a brass lock, the same as in use on freight cars. I ordered the men to their quarters, and as they passed out Davis lay perfectly mo tionless. J ust as I was eoiner out Davis raised from his cot and threw his feet on the floor, and with the clanging of the chains he gave way I will say here that it was anything but a pleasant sight to me to see a man like Jefferson Davis shedding tears, but not one word had he to say. Two hours after, I called to relieve the guard and found Davis lying on his cot. I "said : "Mr. Davis, you can't rest well that way ; if you will give me your word of honor that you will give no more trouble m this matter, I will unlock the shackles so you can take off your clothing." "Captain, I assure you there will be no more trouble. 1 was very much exasperated at the time ; 1 never expected to be subjected to such an indignity." I then unlocked the shackles, he taking off his clothing, 1 1 1 I !i 1 If uiiu loctteu 11 again nimsen. Jerome Titlow, Late Captain 3rd Pennsylvania regi ment Artillery.

We notice some of the most interest ing experiments ; in- corn, with "com ments" and "conclusions," this week, and will give the cotton experiments in next week's issue : Experiment No. 1 was a genuine fertilizer test on corn, being a repeti tion of the test made the previous year. One acre was planted in corn and divided into twenty -eight differs ent plats, in ten series, fertilized with varying relative quantities of the three valuable elements of plant food; for which the farmer pays when he buys a commercial fertilizer. We give only the "conclusions reached : 4 1. The use of murate of potash was of doubtful . benefit on this land. Even if beneficial in small ' doses,-a imit is soon reached beyond which an increase in the amount is certainly injurious. - 2. The effect of superphosphate was decidedly beneficial. 3. The effect of nitrate of soda was also of decided benefit. ' ' - 4. Cotton seed meal did not seem so decided in its effects. . 5, In general, the results of this experiment do not favor the use of concentrated -chemical, fertilizers ' on corn. In no case did the increased yield of the fertilizers of the plots over the unfertilized, pay for the cost of the fertilizer." Exneritnent No. 2. effect of sub- soiling, and the application of nitrate of soda during the growing period of suits: ' "i . ' .'; " The effect of sub -soiling amounted practically to nothing; the increased yield being only twenty-three-hun-dredths of a bushel,' or less than one peck of corn per acre. ' The increase would not pay the cost of extra labor mvoivea in suD-soiung. . "Effect of Nitrating The most re markable feature in the results on this acre was the effect of the two addi tional applications of nitrate of soda. The increased yield of corn was only 2.98 bushels not enough to justify such applications but the effect , on the aftergrowth 01 crab grass was re markable. After the crop was laid by the effect on the growth of the gras's, as compared with the north half on which no additional doses of nitrate were applied, was plainly no ticeable to the most casual observer. On the unnitrated portion there "was no grass at all, not enough to cut. On the nitrated portion,' after entirely removing the stalks of com from an average set of nine rows," September 27, the grass was cut, very thoroughly cured and weighed. The yield was 866 pounds of dry cured hay per acre, l he cost ot tne 200 pounds ot nitrate was . $5 72 2.98 bus. of corn, at 60c it. 866 lbs. of hay, at 80c 92 Profits . . . : z',981 $8 70 $8 70 Interculrural Experiment No. 3 fertilizing of corn, 1. e. applying fer- tihzers during growth of the crop.

The results confirm those of similar experiments made in. 1890 and 1891. In 1890 the 1 shallow culture plots yielded 24 bushels more corn to the acre, while the deep culture plots yielded 38 pounds more fodder. In 1 891 the shallow culture resulted in one bushel more corn per acre fodder not weighed. : The present experiment resulted in an excess of 0.29 of a bushel; or a little more than one peck, in favor of the deep culture plots. j; But the extra cost of the deep plowing was .not less than Si per acre. Hence there, was a loss by deep culture. The result of these, three experi ments in three successive - years strongly fortify the conclusion , i.
