Bhe stands beside the cotUgs duor To watch the dying day, liar rare a bair is r rinkled o'er With flakes of silver gray; And many a line of sadness soars That pale yet lovely faoe, To mark where slow and silent tears Have left their lasting trace. And still her whispered thoughts will tell Of sooues that are no more, And ican the once-loved forme that dwelt Ou Mem'ry's abadowy shore; Again the little cot to deck That now so empty stand; Again to feel around hor neck The touch of tiny hands.

A farmer, who is vouched for as one of the best clover seed savers, gives the following hints ns to the saving of the seed: The second crop is for the seed, and is really tit for no other pur pose, as it salivates the stock fed on it. The best time to cut for seed is a very nice poiut to determine. It should be cut when a majority of the heads tnrn brown, and before any begin to shed off the little seed pods, each of which con tains a seed. Cut the second crop of clover jnst as though it were for hay, rake it into windrows, and let it lie and take one or two showers; then put it into very small cocks while damp, abont one good pitchfork full in a place, and when it is dry put into stacks and cap with something that will turn water; or what is still better, if yon have a shed or barn, pnt it there and let it remain until yon get a hnller to take it out for you. Let our farmers eave all the clo ver seed they can, and thus help to make thousands of dollars for the State, uow sent out each year for clover eted to BOW.' W line ehr Knniii r houM iu.lv. The farmer should study the laws of ivBoentration. lie should learn how to concentrate his crops into the best pay ing articles. Die lie consider that but ter, cheese, beef, pork and mutton, rep resent only certain amoont of grass, hay and grain that his farm produces? That instead of selling the raw commod ities, he can, by putting them into these articles, get much better returns for his products ? His study should be, how to transform the raw products of his farm iuto somethiug that is concentrated and that will bring him most money. What he raises has to go to some market. By ooudeusing it, little freight will have to be paid, and thus much will be saved. A farm is not only a farm; it is, or should be, a factory for chuugiug the raw pro ducts into articles of general consump tion, that have a commercial value the world over that are of the best quality, that keep well and sell well, and bring prices that will pay well for the skill, labor and capital employed in producing them, tlittv lo I lire Klin- Hut. ll.y that has been cut late may be improved by curing it iu the cock iu stead of drying it iu the sun.

The Oi lhams and H.--lts live in liar liu county, 111,, aud rival e-ieh other iu wickedness, There has long bee'i a feud betwteu the families, and a year t:o it broke out into bloody hostilities. A R.-lt was killed by an Oldham iu con sequence of a quitrrel about a woman, aud after that hostilitiei were open aud tieice. Logau Holt, the leader of tiie iieit faction, killed Doms OMhnm soou u'.terwaid, for revenge. It was not long bi-fore Logan H.dt's nephew was killed in n drunken brawl by a mau whose wife ns an Oldham. The iieit homi cide wns that of 'Doe' Oldham by Logan licit, at an Oldham family party, into which some of the Helta iutrudod in ordor to force a tight. Although justice is ve ry sleepy in Hardin county, fonr murders within a few months aroused the giand jury to action, aud L)gau Heit was indicted. Several witnesses against Helt have boeu tire 1 at, one los ing a liuger, aud a badly-aimed shot, presumably tired at an Oldham, Mc-riotM-ly wounded a Helt, who was standing close by. Ths trial of Logan Helt has been commenced, and the evidence already shows the existence of a secret society among the Relts, formed for the extermination of the Oldhams. The ltuachiis Mississippi; The town of Covington, Iowa, situated on a bend of the Mississippi, bids fair to soon disappear beneath the current of the Father of Waters. The gronnd on which the courthouse stood a year ago is now covered by many feet of swiftly flowing water. The entting away is ilone by tits and starts. One day the current sets inshore and slices off thirty or forty feet, and perhaps a week elapses before any further damage ocsnrs. Then about a half dozen building? are moved back some thirty feet, and the next land on which they stood has all gone. The citizens have tried to nioor trees and logs to the bank in the hope of forming a barrier for the flood, bnt the oarrent is so swift and the water so deep that all these attempts have failed. To give an idea of what the town of Covington has suffered in the past five years, the case of the ferryhouse and principal hotel may be instacead. Two years ago there were '.00 fet of land between the build ings and the river bank; now yon cau toss a stone out of the hotel window into the river, and the buildings are being put on rollers for removal "' ; METI10DS OF DISINFECTION. Important Knlv l.nid lo by the National Hoard of Urnllh. XitionaIj Board of IIeaxtfi, Wash ixoton, P.C. The following memoran da on disinfection for limitiug the spread of yellow fever are publishod as a Bummaiy of existing knowledge on this subject. This knowledge is far from being precise, and the board has taken measures to have the effect of disinfectants, and more particularly of gaseous or volatile disinfectants, upon the lower organisms, both moist and dry, carefully investigated. This inves tigation will require much time, but the results will, it is hoped, rf pay the cost: 1. It is prudent to assnme that tho essential cause of yellow fever is what may for conciseness be called a 'germ;' that is, somethiug which is capabla of growth end propagation outside the living humau body. That tbia germ llmriishes especially in decaying organic matter or filth, and that disinfection must hate lefen-uce both to the germ and to that in or ou which it flourish:.. J. Disinfection when used in a place not infected, for the purpose of render ing tilth or foul soils, waters, Ac., iecv pable of propagating disease germs, is a pool substitute for clesuliuess, and is mainly u-eful to make the process of cleaning odorless mid harmless. The best disinfectants for this purpose are su'phald of iron, carbolic oeid, fresh qnick lim fresh charcoal powder, cido ride of ziue, chloride of abiruuiuui, per mannnate of potash. :. The two great ii lM-nhies in de stroying tho vitality of the germ of yel low fever are tlst to bring the disinfect iug ngt-ut into actual contact with th" germ, and second to moid irjuting or dostroviug other things which should be presLi ved. 1 W'hrn ihi , ) in !! y I'm- . i-f-r " (. parti a' ilrit't .u ;,o uv di iii!'r 'ant r'vi In r . oi t dr ' o it.

Before disturbing thtm have them thoroughly moistened either with a chemical disin fecting solution or with boiling water in order to prevent tho diffusion of direct gents iu tho air in the form of dust. r.. The best method f disinfecting rooms, buildings, ship", etc., is still d lubtfnt, owing to the d tlieulty of de stroying the vitality of dried germs. The beard proposes to have this sub ject carefully investigated, and iu the meantime advises thorough scrubbing and moist cleansing, to be followed by the fumes of burning sulphur r-t the rate of eighteen onncs per l.fOO cubic feet of space to be disinfected. The sulphur should be broken into small pieces banted over vessels containing water or situ 1, which vessels should be distributed over the space to be disin fected at the rate of at least one to each one hundred sipi. re feet. No patented compound known to the board is superior as a disinfectant to the agent above mentioned, and none so cheap. Home of these potent disinfec tants are pood deo.h rants, but the re moval of an it'ip'easaiit odor is no proof that true disinfection he been accom plished. In districts where yellow fever pre vailed last yenr the following precau tionary measures should be taken : 1. Textile fairies of every description which werec-vposed to yellow fever in fection during the year and which have remained pa. ked or loxed in a o'.psfd plae since sr-eb exposure, should not be opened it ntroiled, but shou'd either be burtel or placed iu boiling water for half an hour or more, or in suitable heated ovens, or disinfected ac cording to the nature and value of the individual aiticle t. r articles. 2. I'.very bouse or room m which cises of yellow fever occurred in the yar 1S78, and sirce that time have re mained utioce Jpied, sh uhl uot Pe open ed for occupati.-n until they have been thoroughly cleansed aud disinfected by persons acclimated to yellow fever. U. Every privy vault, underground water cistern, dry well or closed cellar connected with a house iu which yellow fever exited last year, and which runy not have been opened since that date, should uot be reopened; but, if possible, should be covered with several feet of earth. 4. Every suspicious ea'e should be at once isolated, and every precaution taken to prevent infection by providing attendants who have had the disease, and thorough diainfeeliou of all dis charges from ti; :ock. If the disease prows to bo yellow fever all articles of clothing and betiding used abont the sick should be burned, tiie house should be vacated aud every room tightly closed aud fumigated with burning niiphnr.

They walked about twenty miles a day, twenty-eight miles being their best day's walk. They were out of cash when they started, and have lived from small pres ents made them, though they do not beg.

Confidence In Leaders Kequlsdte, Oeneral Longstreet, aa reported by an interviewer, expresses his belief that more depends on tho commanding ofll cer than the bravery of the men under him iu order to seonre a victory iu bat tle. He remarks: As I said before, individual bravery amouuts to very little in a battle. Men must be fought iu blocks and masses, just as parts of a machine. Nearly everything depends upon the commauder. It the men have confidence in him and his movements, they will stand by him to the end. They will actually come to feel safer in fol lowing him, no matter where ho leads, than iu breaking away from him. A good general can take an army of Chiua mon and whip an army of Englishmen, if the latter are improperly bandied. No matter how brave men are, they will not right if Ihey feel that they are iu doubtful nud uuskillful hands. This principle explains the wonderful victo ries of the French under the first Xapo leou. I was once dining with Horace Greeley, said the general, becoming a bit didcnrsive, 'and ho asked me if it wj uot necessary to swear at your men and 'whoop them up,' as the saying goes. 1 replied that I thought not. There is nothing like quiet assurance and oufl denee. I once scut out a brigade to occupy a certain poiut. As it was mount ing a little crest it eime full upon im mense musses of Federals. The men were pauie-etrie'seu, and thought 1 had made a mistake iu ordering them for ward. Tuey halted, irresolute, and theu dropped down upon the ground. It was important that they should advance aud : make a ftiiut, at least. I therefore rode j quietly through their ranks iu to the ! crest, and there halting my horse, ad I justed my glasses, aud calmly nuveyed the secuo iu froLt. I turned earelet sly nrouud, and, as 1 expected, there was my brigade ul my back, every man in position reafy for anything confident aud assured. A Retrospection, Ah, 1 um.

Fair, fair. now long tin days were theu. The forenoon was an epoch; the afternoon a measureless cycle of time.

And diu ner seems to come so soou after break fast that we are almo-t inclined not to be bothered with it. And supper is a thankless task. The years scorn to gather momentum as the pass; oarh succeeding one being shuiter than its predecessor. We pee how it is we are on tho down grade, and thero are no brakes.

There is no capital here, but debt ouly. Tho buyer with a ch'i'k is not employ iug capital which he l .s iu Lio b.tud; ho is pu'chusiug something with a debt. That something may be a commodity, or it luas bo what is called hu ii.vestiU'tnl. C ipital comes forward fur consideration ouly aftir tho purchase is c unpleted.' Tho proper definition of cipit.il, according to Prof. Price, is the application of commodities to production, us when tho seller of n bond us. s the money received for it ill producing cotton uud wheat or iu manu facturing, Itat if after selling the bond th'" money is spent in luxury or waste, it is simply a consumption or destruc tion of wealth, and if that wealth hns been formerly used as capital, tho spend thrift has destroyed some of tho capital of his country. It is only too cominou iu ordinary talk aud writing to confuse credit, wealth aud capital together, us if they were the saiuo things.
