fi- most improved machinery; and this,

' . tho growth of the mulberry, is iles
tilled, iiiediets the l'ltiladelpl.ia
Record, to make Japan tho leading
-"ViV ilk-producing country in the world.
Forty years after his death New
York propo.-es to honor the memory
of Audubon by raising a monument to
Ins memory. Sim-omulin a bas-relief
of the great ornithologist will be
the American ealc and the Florida
water lily, both nf wlticli he was (he
first to describe. The project is one
Which deserves sui.port, declares the
San Franci-eo (Jlir.niicle. for Audubon
was not only one of the be-t M-ieittUts
this country has produced, but one of
the most representative Americans.
According to the
l'hiladelph'm
Record, "the cry of the navy is for
seamen. It has been cstinia'.ed that
not leas than 2000 more men will be
needed to till the crews of ail the ships
of war now lit for service. A very
large portion of (he crews of the navy
are foreigners, in whom little depend
ence could be placed in ease of a for
eign war. But the only w ay in which
American seamen could be secured
would be to abolish the aristocratic
system that lias grown up in the navy,
and throw all ranks, from midshipman
to admiral, open to promotion for
merit. Until this shall have been done
the navy will continue to be manned
by foreigners ; and with all its splen
did and costly ships it will be, so fat
as its seamen are concerned, American
only in name."
It is pleasing, confesses the Now
York Commercial Advertiser, to see
how the European papers look at tho
idea of Italy's declaring war against
the United States. So much has been
said about Italy's big navy that some
Americans have been seriously per.
suaded that she is better prepared for
war than we. The truth is, that al
though Italy has the third greatest
navy in Europe, it is lklle greater
than our own, and by its very magni
tude has so disordered Italian finances
that Italy is unprepared for war.
Italy's population is one-half of our
own, but her wealth is less than one
fourth of ours, and her public debt is
three times as great. The Loudon
Spectator is right w hen it says that
America is "capable w ithin six months
of buying and building a lleet that
would blockade every port in Italy."
The Government gave up its experi
mental tea farm at Suinmerville, S. C.,
some time ago, but S. Oti, at Aiken,
S. G, has been more persistent, and
also more successful. He began the
culture of the tea plant fifteen years
ago, and now has a beautiful hedge,
seventy-five feet long and five feet
high. He is satisfied, and so is the
Charleston News and Courier, that tea
can bo grown anywhere in tho stati
(or the South) whore corn or cotton
can bo. "When we had," ho writes to
tho Baltimore Manufacturers' Record,
"that terrible blizzard some four years
ago freezing the oranges solid on the
trees in Florida it injured all kinds
Of hardy evergreens and trees in my
garden, but no harm was dono to the
' tea plant, then in full leaf and its seed
iiuts half grown. AH froze solid, but
' . j were not injured in the least."

FURLS OF THOUGHT.
Reputation it the mean of life;
tome men have to lire up to it, others
to live it down.
To think wisely is the part of a
sage; to act wisely requires a combi
nation, of man and angel.
It ii easier to forgivo a friend for
the wrong hu did us than for the lie
j he told to keip it from usi
j To forgive when we have forgotten
j is easy; to forgive when we know we
can never forget is noble.
I some men had the nino lives of a
cat they would waste thoni all in folly
and then have uino death bod repent
ances. Nearly every one rates himself at
his true valuation, but he is careful
not to take (ho world into his confi
dence. 'Mope springs eternal in the human
breast," but Despondency always pol
lutes the waters before our thirst is
quenched.
The half thoughts of the foolish,
put into words, are often the levers
that move tho wise to think in silence
and then act.
j It takes us years to learn what litilo
we do know and (n ice as long to im
j learn Ihe great deal tha: we think we
know, but don't.
! To yield love for service is too much
like a commercial bargain; but to
i serve for love is a monopoly of souls,
and selfishness can never break the
combination.
' That wc lost the race because we
stopped to point out the right way to
a wanderer, will be remembered by
, him, though our names arc not capi
talized i:: the next day's newspaper.
' Our opinions are a good deal like
the lime of our clocks and watches, no
two jut alike, yet we all follow and
keep our own.
! If it is hard to f.irgivc an enemy an
intentional injury, how much more
difficult must it bo to pardon a friend
for the same offense.
j There is no tarrying in tho swift
current of life : it sweeps all floating
particles relentlessly on; and to be
i stranded on the mountain side means
' 10 wither uselessly away.
The one who gives his mind and
strength to a work for its own sake,
does not need other stimulus; and
though often hindered and ca-t down,
is not daunted from still going on,
with a determination to conquer.
Chronology of Iron.
I The Bible speaks of Tubal Cain as
the discoverer of iron and the father of
6miths; the Egyptians imputed to
: llepha'stus the same honor, while
IMiny mentions it having been dis
covered by tho Dactyles, on Mount
, Ida, after Ihe forests on the mountain
side had been destroyed by lightning,
i this about 143'J years li. C.
i
Jeremiah and Ezekiel botli mention
iron in their scriptural writings, the
latter specially mentioning two quali
j Mas of tho metal, calling one ''bright
iron," which was probably steel.
t Moses mentions an iron furnace, and
; Job speaks of it as being taken out of
the earth. Thousands of years before
' the opening of the Christian era Ihe
' Egyptians used iron in making sickles,
; knives, etc. Sparta first used iron for
j money ; Britain also used it as a medi
' uni of barter and exchange prior to
, the conquest by the Romans. The use
j of steel is known to be quite ancient,
, its invention being ascribed to the
j Chalylioe, who in ancient tiroos lived
at the present Batonm. .The Britaus,
j before tho lime of Christ, used to
: export iron to Gaul, and after
the Roman conquest tho conquerors
j established extensive smelting works,
which existed at least as laic as the
Saxon conquest. Iron bars were de
manded by Williita tho Conqueror as
tribute from the city of Gloucester.
In 13.).") Edward HI. lorbado the ex
port of iron from England, and in
148:! the importation of iron articles
that could be mado at home was for
bidden. Bar iron was inado in the
American colonies as early us 1GC2.
Tho tinning of iron was introduced
from Bohemia in 1681. The first ex
periments in smelling iron with an
thracite coal wero tried at Mauch
Chunk, Pcnn., 1829; in France two
years earlier, and successfully in Wales
in 1837. The first iron works in Am
erica were established near James
town, Va., In 1G19; in 1002 the works
were destroyed and the workmen and
their families killed by Indians. Tho
next attempt was at Lynn, Mass., on
tho banks of the Saugus, in 1048. Tho
ore used was tho "bog" variety, still
found in abundance in that vicinity.
At theso famous iron works Joseph
Jenks, a native of Harnia srsmith,
England, in 1652, by order t tho
Province of Massachusetts Bay, coined

Correspondent Under I'lre.
During the receut troubles on tho
Sionx Reservation, nay Colonel James
A. Finlay, the post trader at Pine Ridge
Agency, I had the pleasure of enter
taining the war correspondents of the
newspapers. At one time there were
ubout thirty corre-ipondeatu at the
ageuey, and they all stopped with the
post trader. Most of them were tender
leet, and not a few were the practical
jokes played on them by military
oflicers and local civilians. Before the
campaign was over most of them had
mastered the situation so that the civil
ians and military jokers wero on the de
fensive. When the Wounded Knee
tight occurred a good many of the cor
respondents had left the reservation,
presuming lhat the scare was all over.
There hapreued to be about ahalf.doiaea
of them with Colonel Foray the's com
mand on the morning that it went after
Big Foot's band. When tho troop3
came up with the Indians at Wounded
Knee they dismounted and proceeded
to search the tepees for arms after they
had failed to get them from the warriors.
Tho firing was begun by tho Indians,
and it happened so suddenly and un
expectedly that even the correspondents j
were taken by surprise. There were I
four of them standing about midway !
between the troops and the Indians j
when tho fnsilade opened. At the first
tire the bul.ets went past, them from
both sides, and it is a miracle that all
four of the newspapermen wero not rid
dled. One of them got a bullet in the
butt of a gun which he carried,
and a holo was shot in the hat of another
correspondent. Of course they ran from
between the Hues as soon as firing
began, but it was a shower of bullets
that they ran through, and, remarkable
as it may seem, not one of them received
so much as a scratch. Only one of them
appeared to be greatly frightened, and
he did'nt get over it as long as he re
mained at the agencv. He was joked
uv his eomrniloi a o-ood donl nlirvnt. it I
atterward, but it wan no joking matter,
and I don't believe he will get over that
fright as long as he livos. The whole
campaign, so far as tho newspaper men
wore concerned, was conducted under
difficulties, for the Western Union Tele
graph station was several miles away
from the agency and the service was
poor at. that.
ceeso a 1'oucemen.
A Georgia man says he has two of the
best policemen in his service in the
State. There is one peculiar trait about
them, and that is that thev never go to
sleep and never get off their beats.
Tbey rue two enormous geese. They
march up and down a regular beat in
front of lik house at night, and when
ever anything else enters the yard at
night they begin yelling like Comanche
