Sr. John, of Kansas, the Prohi bitionist nominee for President. In the afternoon he addre--i d a large audience, which had as -cmbled m a heavy ram storm, on the evils of licensing and the en ormity of the crimes iln.t had cursed our nation through the bonoi tiatlir. In flu- evening a large audit nee as-eu, bl, d. and ( ! v. St. John spoke ol the political as pee t ol I he i ile-t ion . ,i ii d arraigned the IJepubl iea n p.n t tor the misrule that has characterized its work for the past twenty ( a;s. e quote his wm ds: T have been a Kepiiolic.in all my life no to the 1th ol last moinb. but I hav e nevei lost an opportunity to say or do a good deed for this great cause ot Prohibition. When the Republican patty met at Chicago to select candidates for President and Vice-President last month, t hey were w aited upon by the Women's Christian Temperance I'nion, a band of brave women, having at heart the advancement of the race, and the Kepuhl iean party tailed to take any recognition ol them. The day after the nomi nations were made I told my wile I would never again vote the Repub lican ticket, and all my exertions would In tor this grand cause ot Prohibition. Neither party dared to take up this great, issue lor tear of losing t he whisky vote. Shame, shame mi our political parties. I used to lay awake nights, when I lived in t he border towns and w as a Republican, hating Democrats and Democratic principles. Since the 4th of last month 1 have made up my mind that Republican whisky is' as bad as Democratic whisky, if not wors-rr-The Republican party j is false to all the teachings ad vanced and inculcated when that grand old party went into pow er. ''One sixth ol our people govern . the other five sixths. If this one sixth be corrupt and intemperate, the five sixths will not be long in getting so too. After the Yorktown celebration a bill was sent in by the Republicans for sb.Oi'O for wines and whisky s used on that occasion. At the Star route trial one of trie jurors came into the court rixim and fell senseless at the feet of the judge, grossly intoxi cated. Rut this is not all: under RepMblican misrule wo have been insulted and mortified tiy the drunken corteges that accompanied the remains of our marty red Gar field to their last resting place." Gov. St' John was listened to with the greatest respect, and he has created a furor here that will be felt in the coming election. The Daily I'nion Republican), edited by Postmaster St. John, comes out with a communication calling the Prohibition meetings "sideshows for the Democracy ." The meetings each day are being attended by in creasing numbers, and much en thusiasm is being manifested. Southern Men and Southern Voiie) DeTelopinir the South. H.W.TIMoRK MaNI K.UTTKKl.s' Kk . RO.

The civil service reformers have made very gratifying progress in impressing their ideas upon the mind of the average citizen, and in . spite of occasional hindrances the siio- iiitial success of the reform may be taken as assured. It would 1;e too soon, however, to declare th it the oilioial intelligence has as yet passed out of the stage of tran sition from the old to the new prin ciple. Politicians long conspicuous f' r their disregard of, if not hostil ity to. the reform movement are now indeed hmd in their professions ot devotion to reform principles, bat that of course is owing to the necessity ol' having their profes sions correspond with the dominant tone of public opinion, at whatever risk of inconsistency. It cannot be denied that some leccnt federal ap poiutrnents indicate a survival of the old principle in practice, to an extent indeed that must be einbar iassing to conservative officials anxious to bring about a purifica tion of the public administration. One ot these appointments recalls an amusing incident of four years ago. A delegate from rthe south west amused the spectators and embarrassed the delegates at the convention that nominated the late President by asking: "What are we here for if not for the offices'!'' The faith of this true believer in the theory of Marcy has at length been justified by his nomination for a substantial post in the internal le- etiue service. It is clear that among the qualifications for public oilice an enthusiastic devotion to the theory of the reformers is by no means regarded as essential. I',rii 'iitri i t's. Itailwiiv Statistics for iss3. 1 he following is taken from ad-' vauee sheets of "Poor's Railroad Manual" for ls.S:5: The year's statement is an abridg ment of the much more extended one. embracing in detail all the! railroads of the country. It shows I that since ltsSO, a period of three years, there have been opened in the Cnited States 28.405 miles of1 railroad, and that 0,091 miles were opened the past year up to the, close of the fiscal years of the sev-1 eral companies. The increase of share capital and indebtedness of all the companies for the three years ending December 31, 1883, was 2, 093, 433. 054, the cost of the new mileage as represented by share capital and debt being about 70,000 per mile. The increase iu the three years of the funded debts of all the'eompauies was 924,100,-' 440: of their floating debts, 1C9,-1 880,400; of the two, ? 1, 094,045,840. ! It is not probable that the cost of. the mileage constructed in the three years equalled the increase of funded and tloating debts by at least the sum of 200, 000,000. 'The cost of the mileage constructed certainly did not exceed ".30,000 to the mile. The whole increase ol , the share capital, 999, 387.208, and. a portion of the funded debt was in excess of cost of construction. It will be seen by a statement hereto i annexed thatstocks and bonds to the amount of 8530432,000 were listed at the New York Stock Ex change iu 1883. The amount of stocks and bonds listed was equiv alent to about $80,000 per mile of new road built during the year. A considerrble amount, however, of the securities listed was on account of old works. Henry 'lay's Fortune. Hen. Policy Poore says in his reminiscences: '-Henry Clay was announced insolvent by his Ken tucky opponents in 1842, aud they paraded some mortgages on his property as evidence ot his inabil ity to pay his debts. In a letter to a friend, denying this calumny, Mr. Clay said: -I am uot free, abso lutely, from debt. I am not rich. 1 never coveted riches. But my es tate would, even now. be estimated at not much less than 100,000. Whatever it may be worth, it is a gratification to me to know that it is the product of my own honest labor, no pai t of it being hereditary : except one slave, who would oblige : me very much if he would accept1 his freedom. It is sti llicien f, after, paving all my debts, to leave my laiinly above want if 1 should be separated tioui them. It is a mat ter also of consolation to me to know this wanton exposure of my private affairs can do me no pe can. ,,ry prejudice. My lew creditor- vill not allow thk-ir confidence me to b aken bv it.

I was a ii aja d "l' it and my nabors smiled at the p,aae, t as they went along the road. '1 bat wheat began to -tool cai and spi e:a ; and occupy the ground and it u:..;',.' I big long heads w ith f :ir and six grains to the mash and threshed I out 90 bushels and I sold it on the spot at one dollar a bushel when ' good wheat, was biitiging only P0 cents. This wiieat was kilhd oat be cause, it was not acclimated, li would have stood any ordinaiy wiuter. The reason I know this to be so is that I sowed another ii ve neres close by in the same kind ot wheat that came from Lincoln three years ago and was'the same variely and raised by the same man. That wheat was not killed or hurt, for it was acclimated. Rut that didn thresh but twenty bushels to the acre and the result satisfies me that we sow too much grain on the hind. My judgment is aud my nabors confirm it that halt a peck to the acre would have put upon the tirst five acres as many plants as were alive after the killingout. I believe that a half bushel to the acre wiil make more wheat and better wheat than a bushel. Some of my nabors say that if that five acres had not been killed it would have made do or 40 bushels to the acre, but they are mistaken. It would have made 25 I think, and may be more, but not much more for it would have made shorter heads and smaller grain. 1 had twenty-eight acres in wheat and made 505 bushels, with which result I am coDtent. and my next point is that I believe it can be done every year and the who a crop made as ceitain as the c -:,; crop and as certain as the wheat crop of the northwest. One of nr. nabors said he would make a boat 125 bushels on 50 act' - ,n good laud and that he put in half of it with a Thomas -iiii oi hing hai '" and half with a brush.

Luck is a good thing and I ba r powerful good luck this year :' h my small graiu, but I flatter my s '.: that I am not altogether a tci i i luck. Year before last I got t , bushels of Part oats from Mom.' zutna and this year I had (.nornm seed to sow and I put iu live at ' -with the disc harrow the first v, , in March. The weather prevent : me from putting them in n: i'e ruary. I sowed them on thin u land and fiom three acres I threshe i 137 bushels. I cut them the ia-' week in May, say 11 weeks from the time they were sowed, and ha I them out of the way two weeks b fore wheat harvest. The straw ; almost as line as timothy and t . stock will cat it all up. in the wiub : . One of my nabors. a good faiim:. sowed 100 acres of led rust- r ' last fall and never made a busied.

The wretched system of forced culture iu which a gill learned a little French and La! in, a smattering of mathematics, a glance into polite literature, and a gieat ileal of pour piano playing, has been abandoned in favor of a more sensible curriculum commen surate with her value as a co-wot ker wii h her brothers. Sensible German parents have always brought up their daughters to be producers as well as eoustim crs in the d.oiiie.-iic economy. It i otily the American parent who made the kitchen unattractive to his daughter, and gave her no possibil ity of employ ing her talent, except in the few lady-like departments sanctioned by conservative custom. The time is coming, nay, has al ready come, when a sign reading "Smith cc Daughters," will merely indicate that all Mr. Smith's boys were giils, and he had educated t hem as he would hav e done if I hey had been boys. And the Smith girls instead of dawdling around the ' paternal mansion until some young men could be found for husbands, have wisely gone into business w ith fla ir father, and have never found time to be discontented with them selves.

The lai lid it is la.w eertiin. will be completed liefore I ho di'sinnti d time. The design of the neon build inn is now .ippni eril,, Hin-'e all the w eal herboH rd ing is com pteled and the roof ,., n. The engravings of ii irp leseiit it very accurately. The roof in cvered with patent felt rooting, and (hi- looks like a great nheet of Ida. k as one appma-'heR tlie building. The in ii ii. r work goes on rapidly.

To-day at 2:30 p. m. the d irectorH of the KxcsiMon hold their regular monthly meeting, at which considerable routine work will be done. The rejior js from the counties which will exhibit become daily more encour aging. They show how widespread and how deep is the interest in (he exposi tion, in all parts of the State. The pride of the people is thoroughly in Hi-el. and the rivalry between the c HI lit ies is great. The far! that this year of grace. Iss4, is an exceptional crop yr.'ir will greatly add to the agricultural features of the d l-plav . as w ill be seen. Such wheat, oats and ryaa such corn, tobacco and grasses have never been seen here. The crops in the Slate were perhaps never liner, take them all around, and manv old farmers say tM're never was such a year. This is a good thing for the ex position in cvi rv respect. Piesident Primrose is certainly the right man in the right place. He is' untiring in hiselfoits to make the ex position worthy of this great common wealth and be will succeed. One specie- of ash wood, found in: John-Ion county, was not shown at I Huston. It w ill be sent tothe exposition ' by a gentleman of that county. By the way.

Hefore I brought Maud S. out I was satisfied that il she did not do better than 2:10 she would do it on Monday, -ind I was de termined to drive her fast. I did not dare force her wry fast to the quarter pole, and was satisfied when I reached it in 1123. Then I began to crowd her. 1 wanted to reach the half mile in 1.0-1 We did reach it in l:04f.
