Ileforel had rode many miles 1 felt as if I was ittinp on a doen Morgan mares, and 1 was a whole platoon in mvfelf. Alter a ride of twenty five miles we camped lor the nipht in the woods. The ner morning I was turned over to ('apt. Tucker, of the loth N. '. Ueimeiif. We marched to loldslmro. and a jolly set of lvo'8 I found them. W e were treated to all the hoh1 things that grew on the way. 1 would thank the lady who, when we halted at a place called llookerton said, "if thine enemy thirst give him drink;" and .us tiie crowd gave way she brought us a nail of water, which was very refreshing. And thanks to the .oils' lieutenant who invited me out t... ,ir.i,.,., ,., t, i,w in.iv .is his friend. 1 re me mix r thelady's saying she should be frightened to iieath of a Yankee soldier. What a good laugh we had In'lore we left, mi informing her that 1 was one of those horrible Yankees! We marched twenty miles a day for five days. It seemed to be the pride of the lrth liegiment boys to .make twenty miles a day. They s.nd Stonewall Jacksou's men al ways marched twenty miles. Arriving at Goldsboro, a Confed erate doctor took me to his head quarters and dre-ssed the wound I , had received on my head. lie told me he wa.s taken prisoner at Koan oke Island, and when he was paroled he told (ieu. Karnsule if any of his troops fell in his hands, and were wounded, he would do all that was in his power to do. 1 most say he kept his word, for when he returned me to the guard, I felt like a new man . After spending a few nights in the Ciol, lsl.,.ro j.nl and here 1 would thank the old jailer for the coin coffee and crackers and iork he gave us we took our departure on the third das for Kichtnond, Va. I shall never forget how the captain ad.lresed the seargeant in charge of the guard. 1 le ordered the seargeant to take us to (let). Winder's head quarters at Uiehinond, Va.; "allow no one to insult them while in the ears, lor I he fortunes of war change, and no one knows how soon we may tvo a prisoner ourselves." We were treated well. In the roar car there were a number of soldiers going to the Iront. Tlie seemed to be en loing themselves.

'To improve the s, ,i and the mind." has long been a popular adage, and cpre-es an excellent sentiment; et we would reverse It. especially during the season ot hibernation, and place first mental improvement. While summer is the time for cultivating and im proving the soil, w inter is emphatic ally the period tor reading, study, and discussion, and all engaged in rural pursuits should take advan tage ot its leisure store their minds with valuable information. There are several organizations designed to advance the physical and mental welfare ot ruralists, the most notable of which are agricultural societies, tanners' clubs, and the grange. The annual fairs of the lormer. when proerlv managed, prove very use tul, for they furnish at t ract i ve and instructive object lessons, and alb'i d favorable opportunities tor the ex hibition and comparison of choice and improved products, animals, implements, and the like. lUit these fairs come only once a year, and are of comparatively brief dura tiou. People who attend them are rron.lr.lll.- o.l llKcArlun l I t I till" K"" - 1 - ".' novelties exniuiieu, iiihi in c.u.n lor nieir o u displays, niai u ineei iDgs are held for addresses and dis cussions, they receive little or no attention. The next notable organization, the farmers' club, is less prominent and popular, yet may bo rendered more beneficial than societies whose efforts are confined to annual ex hibitions. They usually hold fre vuent meetings, especially during fall, winter, and spring, for discus sions, essavs, and lectures, while manv ot them nave (as an snotim r . , 1 . II 1 11 have) libraries containing standard works on practical, scientiuc, aim other subjects. The clubs are thus well equipped to instruct and im prove their members in various ways; for those who attend and take P"r la Tlle meetings cannot fail of receiving and imparting more or less valuable information derived from novel experiments and methods, while the ue ot library books gives opportunity for the investigation of topics in which they are specially inteiestod. This gjeat desideratum m most of the country is, fully orgaui.ed farm ers' clubs, with intelligent and pro gressive members, and well stocked libraries. The library feature we regard as indispensable, and in these times, when good books can be obtained very cheaply through the mails, clubs in the most remote sections may Is- readily supplied. A club, grange, or other organiza tion of only a dozen members can, for a moderate amount, secure a good variety of standard works per taining to rural and do m est ic a flairs, history, science and literature. Wide awake farmers such as read the Americim Aoricultm ist in neighborhoods not already favored in this matter, are reminded that now is the season to organize, pro- cure libraries, and it ither measures to faciliate the ac pusi of practical ami scientific km edge, mental culture and eh lion va- tion. In many sections of t he country granges of the Patrons of Ilusban dry are more numerous than farm ers' clubs, and their meetings lor the discussion of rural and other topics are highly beneficial to mem bors and community. Many of them have well-selected libraries. to which the families of all numbers have free access. In this connect ion we are enabled to give some infor mation from f he best authority rel ative to grangi i b r a r ; i s in : 1 , ; s State, and also a- to what the fanious Kimiia Farmers' done in t he ay of est al library.

Mr. llenii Cernuchi. of Paris, is one of the great lights of silver coinage. He visited this country Some years ago, and at Washing ton i1 1 much to influence the de termination to com silver dollars in this country. About his sincere and mtelligen' devotion to bi in e tall -ism there can be no doubt. Well. Mr Cernuschi has just issued a pamphlet in London in which he surveys the present con dition ot the silver problem, and not giving up one jot of his devo tion to silver he still declares that the silver dollar coinage in the I nited States ought to stop, .-and stop at once. Here are his words: So long as the Pi-metallic Treaty proposed in lssi by the United States and France is not accepted either by Kngland or Germany not one silver live franc, piece should be coined in Prance, not one silver dol lar should be coined in the I'nited States In no form, under no pre text, should silver currency be in creased, either in Prauce or in the I 'nited States. .V. V. Herald. A tew wordsjwill, I think, suflice . to show that the ideas advanced above are in direct conflict with the interests of the people of this country. As long as Kngland and Germany re fuse to coin silve (they having demonetized it ) he advises Prance and the I'nited States also to stop coining it, thereby demonetizing it. The pretended intentions of the w riter is to punish Pngiand for her refusing to coin silver. iMrectly to the contrary would be the effect if his ideas were carried out. Pngiand produces no silver and wants to buy it at the very lowest possible prices; she has an immense demand for it in paying for cotton and wheat in India. Let the I'nited States stop coin ing, what would be the result! All of our bullion silver would go to England and be sold there at just snCu prices as the Englksh people would establish lor it. Doubtless the price would go to lb pence or Si) cents per ounce, and every dollar of silver coin in the I'nited States would be affected by the decline, and Kngland would profit by it. The pretended theory of punish ing Kngland is totally erroneous. Does not common senso distate while you pretend to punish Kng land you are bringing ruin on our own ieople? William II. Oliykk. N r.w kkkn. N. C Shi ii i.n Orchards nr, Cn.Ti-VA'i'i-'.o? This is evidently one of those questions that admit of a variable answer. In other words, a practice which may be the best for one orchard, may not be so for an other, because the conditions are far from being uniform. To keep the ground m an orchard constant ly under cultivation, and producing crops w hich are removed annually, will soon exhaust the fertility of the rehest soil, unless some kind of f..ri,li,.,r ,.,tnri,,l inal-Q rrnrwl ' o the amount taken awav. The fre- quent stirring of the soil, breaking up. disintegrating, and pulverizing, are beneficial operations, lor, by ktM-ping the surface open and loose, we aid the admission of air and moisture, both of which contain, certain elements which are absorbed i by the roots and go far towards making up the bulk of all cultivated plants. I '.ut as a rule, orchardists do not think that they can afford to plow, harrow, and keep down noxious weeds in the orchard for no other purpose than to benefit the ( trees and improve the quantity and quality of the fiuit; consequently, when they plow, it must be, for the purpose of sowing or planting, and t he orchard is kept constantly oc cupied with some annual farm crop, or .seeded dow n to clover or grass. To sow gram of any kind in an orchard, except on vers moist soils, or in a humid climate, seldom fails to check the growth of the trees, because the grow i n g grain will take the moisture from the soil at the ei tune the trees need it most.

What will become of us. we don't know, but guess .we will "worry through," as the man said when he wanted to make it appear by his actions that it was nearer to come by way of Kinston to this place from New Berne. Well, it is said the Quaker Bridge road is getting pretty rough to travel on now, especially the Jones count- part, and we hope the people will work on it soon; but it is about (0 miles round by Kinston. and only about ;!0 through by (Quaker Bridge road, and if we go there will try the latter.

The boy-, cotting of the firm of Kautlmann Bros., , clothiers, which has been in progress for some tune past because the firm re- ; fused to employ union labor, has as-1 sumed a ne w f orm. The firm had placed signs on street cars and the .working- j men attacked the drivers and conduct- ors and endeavored to compal them to , remove the signs. The indications are that there will be a serious trouble, as some of the drivers refuse to take out the cars, being apprehensive of violence. In one instance stones and mud were thrown at the cars, but no one was in jured. O 'NI'ls-i.'N' ,.r A MV11DEKEKINTHE STATE PENITENTIARY. New Orleans. Nov. 1. An inter view with ex-Recorder Thomas J.

Nov. 10. Owing to the re cent civilian attacks upon soldiers, a large party of the King's Royal Rifles broke out of the barracks here tonight, armed yvith bayonets, and made an in discriminate attack upon people resid ing in the vicinity. One man. was stabbed in the head and three men were severely wounded. Pickets were im mediately sent out, and the mayor and a large force of police soon arrived and suppressed the disorder. The people residing in the vicinity tied in terror to their homes, and barricaded the doors. The soldiers were eventually carried back to barracks.

Anr.lyziug the baking Powders. Under the direction of the New York State Board of Health, eighty-four dif- ferent kinas or uaKing powuers, em- ,- , . , ,- bracing all. the brands that could be found for sale in the State, were sub mitted to examination and analysis by I'rof. -'. F. Chandler, a Member of the State Hoard and Piesident of the New York City Board of Health, assisted by Prof. Edward G. Loye, the well-known late I'nited States Government chemist. The otlicial renorr. shows that a larire number of the nowders examined were found to contain alum or lime: many of them to such an extent as to render them seriously objectionable for use in the preparation of human food. Alum was found in twenty-nine sam ples. This drug is employed in baking powders to cheapen their cost. The presence of lime is attributed to the im pure cream of tartar of commerce used in their manufacture. Such cream of tartar yvas also" analyzed, and found to contain lime and other impurities: in some samples to the extent of Ol! per c.-nt. of their entire weight. All the baking powders of the market. yvith the single exception of "Loyal n. t including th alum and phosphate poyy-J.-rs. yvhich ' long since uis carded as unsafe or ineliieient by pru- dt lit I'.ou.-. keepirs are made from the impure cream of tartar f commerce. and censi .pieiitlv contain lime to a cor- r---p' 'ii ding exi.-iit.

The Dartmouth College students call loudly for the opening of their reading room on Sunday, but the faculty refuse permission. It is rumored that the Right Hon. W. H. Smith, "Rulerof the Queen's Navee" will be raised to the peerage after the general election in England. When Prof. Maria Mitchell's 67th birthday came around, her pupils at Yassar presented her with a jelly-cake in sixty-seven layers. The Berlin Vossische Zeitung reminds its readers that two centuries ago the population of Berlin was 17,400, of whom over o,000 were French, chiefly Hugue- not exiles. The seventy-five couples constituting the Duke of Beaufort's pack of hounds at Badminton consume about fortv tons of meal, three tons of biscuits, and 150 horses annuallv. A church at Terre Haute has been built in just sixteen days from the time the corner stone was laid. It is "very beautiful, finished in native woods, with windows of sapphire and ruby glass. "' The '"Lancet" states that a German observer has found that cows milked three times a day giv6 much'more milk than when milked twice only, and that the proportion of the fat is the same in both cases. It is a remarkable circumstance in connection with the recent taking of the censua in British Burmah ,that although the whoie population is devoted to cock fighting, only one man was returned as a t- tiol.tr Methodist conferences in Wisconsin have declared their belief that Christian men ought not to raise or sell tobacco. Thirty thousand acres of the plant were under cultivation in the State this year, and much comment has been roused. The prevalence of small-pox in Mon treal having made the holding of a car nival there this winter out of the ques tion, several cities, among them Ottawa, are striving to have the gala event take place within their limits. The Captain of a Boston sloop has Ceen hned by the Custom House au- devout practical followers of that faith to which Miss Mary Anderson and Lotta also belong. The Portland Me. Board of Health will place an officer on the Grand Trunk trains, who will go out as far as Danville Junction and examine all passengers and baggage coming from Montreal, employ no man in the woods during the coming .winter unless he has recently been vaccinated. Many have posted up notices stating that their men must be vaccinated before they will be em ployed. M. Grevy's age, vhich has now be- comeja question of practical politics, has for years been incorrectly given. There j is every reason to believe that M.

A strip of Arabian paper dating from the ninth century, and containing a woodcut with ornaments and initials, has just been found among the papers of the Austrian Archduke Rainer. This relic shows that the art of woodcutting was probably of Arabian origin, or that it was, at all events, known to the Arabs in the ninth century. State control, the New Bedford Mer cury observes, has neither made fish more Dlentv in numbers or variety nor , decreased their prices in Massachusetts, where the poor man who seeKs to araw from bay or pond or stream a mass of fish for his table is no better rewarded now than before the days of Seth Green and Prof. Baird; nor do sportsmen often fill their baskets."

The experiment has so j far worked admirably, and a poultry ; show has just been held, in which nearly all the specimens were hatched upon ; this poultry farm in Meath. j Some months since Hoikar, one of the great East Indian rulers, while on a ; visit to Lord Dufferin, saw his lordship i going through the process of cutting his ; - newspapers and reviews, ine inaian potentate asked for the ivory paper knife, promising anotner in return, ine prince returned recently to Government House, taking with him a young ele-i phant. The animal had had its tusks j shaped and sharpened, and between the ( Rajah's two visits to Calcutta had un dergone a training in secretarial work. When led into Lord Dufferin 's presence. it took up some newspapers with its trunk, cut them, and placed them on a 1 carpet in au orderly fashion. It was foreseen years ago that Cali- : fornia yvould produce ten times as much fruit as would meet the wants of local consumption. That point is now be lieved to have been reached, yet fruit culture is still in its infancy there, fhe only limit to production seems to be the foreign demand, and fruit growers are anxiously casting about to find markets -for their crops. They have had several conventions to consider the subject, and will soon hold another. It is expected that they w ill be enabled to send tyvo 11 freight trains of fruit per week to the Eastern markets next year, and if the business is pooled it can be made pront ab'.e. otherwise not. The element of co-operation is essential to success. Tic- Parisians are rejoicing in the prospect of being able to indulge in the sport of salmon fishing in the Seine and the Marne at no distant day. The arti u ial fecundation of sO.Clou salmon ova i- going on in the aquarium ot the Tro c tdVri'? and when the fry is suffieiently gr e.en to support the change, these rivers an i their ailluents are to be stocked yy ith tii.' young fish.
