Gloucester and Swindon, principally en the Irish question. At Newport Mr. Gladstone addiessed an enormous crowd. He challenged the government to facilitate the passage of the coercion bill by giving Irish combinations the same protection as British combinations and abandoning the insulting proposal of permanent coercion. Mr. Gladstone's next stop was made at Swindon. In his speech here he in vited his opponents to follow the exam ple of Wellington and Disraeli, and themselves propose what the country wanted. If they did this Mr. Gladstone promised that they would receive the support of the liberals. intense heat has prevailed during the homeward journey, and many persons fainted in tho crushes at the various stations where the train stopped.

On rrimsoned couch, the sun once more At evening's gate lay dying: Above the sad sea's sullen roar The grieving winds were sighing; A barque shot from the lonely shore With all her broad sails Hying. And they that sailed upon that ship, No more they wept nor smiled: No tearful eye, no trembling lip, No supplications wild. No sorrowing for the lessening lands, No dread of coming ill; They stood with folded, cold white hand And heart forever still. On that illumitable sea The ghostly vessel sped ; Out bearing to eternity The world's unnumbered dead. 1 But on the shore so dark, so fair rom which they swiftly parted, Where piercing cries and mute despair Of mortals broken-hearted. , , . ,t . . . . .

"The 1,500XMl acres of oar tract," i t'i.; ' 1 , , Mr. U atkins said, "w;is purchased in 1883 from the State of Louisiana and from the United St ateHGovern- meni. ai tnar time it was vast grazing land for the cattle of the few dealers in the neighborhood. When J took possession I found over 30.000 head of half wild horses and cattle. My work was to divide the immense tract into convenient pastures, establishing station ranches every six miles. The fen c ing alone cost in the neighborhood f0,0H. The land I found to be best adapted to rice, sugar, corn and cotton. All our cultivating, ditching, etc.. is done by steam power. We take a tract, say half a mile w ide, for ipstance, and place an engine on each side. The en- gines are portable, and operates a cable attached to four plows, and under this arrangement we are able plow 30 acres a day with only the labor of three men. Our har- rowing, planting and other cultiva tion is done in a like manner; in fact, there is not a single draught horse on the entire place. We have, of course, horses lor the herders of cattle, of which we now have 10,000 head. "The Southern Tacific Railroad ruDS for .36 miles through our farm. We have three steamboats operat ing on the waters of our own estate, upon which there are M00 miles of navigable waters. We have an ice house, a bank, a shipyard, and a rice mill."
