DIUCK mare ior yuu. out is ;i , u : she is a. little frisky. Good day." At 4.30 p. m. we mounted our > horses and rode out toward the setting { ?un. It was a beautiful afternoon, > with just a suspicion of fall in the j cool, sweet breeze. On either side | were tangled masses of wild and shaggy undergrowth, the flotsam and jetsam of the redundant life of nature. Giant oaks and stately pines stood guard over these and lofty bamboo bines climbed to the top for a more extensive view. Sometimes the road ahead of us would seem to come to an abrupt conclusion, the overarching trees appearing to form an impassable barricade. As we approached they would open ranks and onward we would go. About five miles out we came to a little stream and stopped to water our uorses. aqis ihuu buuuiu was clear as crystal, the bottom being of hard clay. It slipped oat of the woods in the cutest manner and, spreading out to a width of three feet in the road, sparkled and glittered, then dashe^ aito the darkness of the other side. SOME FUN TO BEGIN WITH. A mile farther on a little episode occurred that afforded me considerable uneasiness and discomfort and the Major a like quantity of amusement. I was riding along, carelessly conversing, paying but very iittle attention to my horse, when a iittle spotted fawn ran across the road. My horse stood still about one second, trembling in every limb, nostrils distended, wild with terror, and then made a tremendous leap to one side, throwing me half out of Ihc saddle. Here my j Tn/liov? avnftv'Ari^o r?oma ?n nfiTtfl filial 1 I scon recovered control. There wns a series of plunging, kicking and rearing, a desperate effort to rub me off against the trees, and then Kitty, having found her master, settled down to nqiet again. AN OLLKT1ME KL'IXKD liOME. Passing through one large, wellcultivated plantation, we came to a second one, and here our journey ended. A long avenue, lined with spauish bayonet, led to the old mansion, once a stately edifice, but now almost in ruins, it was nearly in the centre of a grove of immense live oak, hung with masses of soft, gray moss. Tangled vines and creeping roses hid I ">i r\!ei\l-s /it' <5.? vrri.'fi IUV UIV 1 VlkVii Vi kliV m piazzas. 0:i the -econd floor but two room? were habitabie, one being" occupied by the bachelor overseer, tltc other "was the guest chamber. r!,t,e only furniture of the latter 7/as a cot and some chairs. A wide, open firep' .cc gave an air cf comfort to the large, clingy, shuitcrless room. This dilapidated mansion had oace been the summer home of one of the wealthiest, planters in the county. "What scenes of merriment the crumbiinsr walls had witnessed! What shouts of joy and laughter! What strains of long-for-( gotten music, to which tiny feet kept time! In these rooms the wail of the new birth has been heard! Here the j fair bride has stood upon the threshold of a fateful, untried life. From here too, the dead have been carried forth, for the tombstones gleam white in the grove some distance in the rear of the house. Iler6 it was the handsome, stalwart, chivalrous owner donned the Confederate gray and went forth to battle for the cause of his people. Here, also, was he brought back cold and still, shot at the head of his regiment, died on the field of honor. A SOUTHERN SCrPER.

After snpper wc lii our pipes and sat out on the crumoling porch while waiting the preparation of the hunting armament. The night air was fall of sound. The grotesque laughter of the mule came to us from the far-off stables; the chattering whirr of insect life made the darkness melodious with monotony of sound. Sometimes a shadowy flap of wing and a harsh note showed where some belated bird was going wearily homeward. WE IIL N'T THE CO OX. "Fall in," said the Major, and off we j started. Jo-iah and his .son Ike, both i of the color warranted to keep in any climate, led the column. They have J torchcs made of fat pine and carry ; under the left arm bundles of the j same. The overseer follows, equally j well equipped. The Major and I j follow him. We leave the plantation i and tramp through an immense field ol i brown sedge. Circling around us, j obedient to the call of Josiah, are the i famous coon do<fs, "Bill" and "Shep." ' At the ->vord they forge ahead eagerly,! and on we go. After a weary trail i through the tail grass we come to an immense oak tree and Josiah halts ! with a smothered ejaculation. There j is a cicared place under the tree and signs of a recent camp. We notice I traces of lire and see a huge pile of j corncobs and some few chicken bones, j "What is it, JosiahV'-" the Major asks. ! "Xufi!u' bul- er oic camp ob uern! refgee niggers.

The bridge is a home-made, homoeopathic one of two rails width, sup- , ported by rickety, swaying poles, , guarded by an equally rickety hand- ' rail. The water looks to be of fathom- i. iess depth. The negroes and the! ] overseer go over the bridge as care- j! lcssly as if it was as stable and solid as j1 the connecting link between New; * York and Brooklyn. The Major eyes j( ii dubiously and "tells me to go first j' With snail-like pace I cross ir safely, j | Now be tries it, first picking up a pole- j* to steady his path.

"Hash you mouf, you lool niggah, don' you s'pose old Josiah know whar am?" is the paternal reply. All fatigue is forgotten. Torches are replenished and on we rush to the spot indicated. Ike is right. A rather slender tree hangs over the swamp. On one of the limbs we see something grim and silent, its eyes shining like coals of lire, liut few words are spoken. Bull is leaping against the trunk, Shep sits on the ground, steady, motionless, watching the enemy above. "Ike, climb the tree and shake the coon oil".'* It is the overseer who speaks. The grinning Ike scrambles up the tree and crawls out upon a limb ?inder the one on which the coon is perched. lie is nearly to where he can reach this limb when snap, the limb on which he is breaks and down he goes into the swamp. Both dogs are ou him in a minute and roll him over in the water. 'Tu'n me loose. I tells vcr; tivn me loose. Can't yer tell a nigger from er coon? Ta'n me loose!" The dogs slink away abashed and resume their former positions. Up the tree again goes Ike. This time he reaches the limb safely and gives it a vigorous shake. Ho! here comes the coon.

Dr. Taiinage Discourses on tl;e General Wickedness of Einj>!oyer.?. In a recent sermon, Dr. Talniage, in Lis usual dramatic and eioquent lashion, pictured "The Genuine Hardships of Working Classes.''

Wbo j will deny that the largest employing 1 firm to-day is Grip, Gouge, Grindem & Co." Here the speaker read extracts from a late report, in which a factory girl was quoted as testifying before a labor commission that she was only able to ?:et four months' work in the year, and then she could scarcely earn $3 per j week. He also read the list of fines to which the employes of a large cottou mill were subjected. It contained such items as twenty-five'cents fine for washing one's hands. For eating a niece of bread at the looms another girl was docked a dollar. A poor spinner who told a fellow employe that her mother was about to die had to pay twenty-five cents line. Mr. I Talinage thought that there was no , fair reason why women, especially I those employed in the government ! offices in Washington and in the public schools, should do the same work as the male employes and get only half ^ much pay. He" said tbat there were 65,000 sewing girls in New York and Brooklyn who did not get half enough to *eed" and clothe themselves, while their employers were rolling in wealth. Some of them made shirts for six cents a dozen and died of slew starvation. The needle, he said, killed more, people than the sword. Carlisle's Presidential Prospects. I There is a buzz of talk going on ; now about Speaker Carlisle being a Presidential candidate in 1888. It is strange how that old woman's superstition about (be Speakership of the House being a short cut to the Presidency still prevails. Mr. Blaine thought so?every man who ever sa: in the Speakers chair has thought so. ihc fucr is, the Speaker of the House j stands jnst one ciiancc hi thirty of get- j ting in the White House. There have] been thirty Speakers, and of these only j one?James K. Polk, and he was an i accident?ever became President.

Mr. Randall i;a? lucre nearly escaped than any man whe ever sat i!:o Speaker's chair: but he, too, has bad faint symptoms. Now that Mr. Carlisle has been inoculated, a case of more or less developed mania may be expected. But lo be Speaker is to take one chance in thirty of ever being President. A Cjirionn Pu7ric. A puzzle that beats the celebrated 13-14-15 is well werth investigating. Take a strip of paper or cardboard thirteen inches long and five wide, thus giving a surface of sixty-five (Go) inches. Now, cut, this strip diagonally is true as you can, giving two pieces in the shape of a triangle; measure exactly five iuches from the larger end >t each strip and cut in two pieces; take these strips and put them into the shape of an exact square and it will ippear to be just eight inches each ivav, or sixty-four (64) square inches, i loss of one square inch of superficial neasurement with no diminution of surface.

Washington', June 3.?The oleomarga rine bill, as it passed rne House to-aav, contains the following features : Butter is defined to be a food product made exclusively from milk or cream, or both, with or without common salt, and with or with out additional coloring matter. Oleomargarine is defined as follows: All substances made of oleomargarine, oleo. oleomargarine oil, butierinc, lstrdiue, suine and neutrai; all mixtures and compounds of oleomargarine, oleo, oleomargarine oil, butterine, laraine. suine and neu tral; ell lard extracts and tallow extracts: aid all mixtures ami compounds of tallow, b.-ef fat suit. hud oil. vegetable oil, annetto ami other coloring matter, intestinal fat and fat made iu imitation or semblance of butter, or. when fo made, calculated cr intended to be sold as butter or for butter. Special taxes are imposed as follows: On manufacturers, $000, onwhuiesaie uealeis, jji-iSU; ou retail dealers. ,<>48. TLe existing internal revenue laws, so fur as applicable, are made to apply to these special taxes. Penalties are imposed on any person vlio shall deal in oleomargarine without payiug the special tax. Provision is made for the proper stamping and labeling of every package of oleomargarine. A tax of 5 cents a Sound is imposed on all oleomargarine manufactured and sold, and a penalty is prescribed for the purchase or reception for [ sale of oleomargarine nut biauued 01 j si .imped acforuim; to Jaw. j A number of .sfclioas of the bill are det Voted Id providing machinery to carry tb< , i law* into cilcct. ; Woiaen :u l*n>;?ia. j Tbe teii.sus 01 tne vieru??ii Empire taKeii, i las* Diecinbtx?ibe ofiiobi* relui'ii.- ci vliicu { ; nave just been published?cstaolislies tbe | fact tuat tbe preponderance of the female over tbe male sex is increasing in Prussia. I While tbe male population numbered 13, >>1)3,688, the female population was 14,426,145, an excess of 52(5,457 females on a total of 28,313,833 persons. Since the census of 1880 the excess of females has increased 77,078, and since 1867 the increase has been no less than 287.000 or 129.46 per cent. The fact is remarkable, and naturally it is atfracting much attention in Germany. It is recognized that this growing preponderance of the female sex can only partially be attributed to emigration, though it is well known that far more men than women leave Prussia for other countries. Out of every 100 persons who were enumerated in the census of Prussia in 1867 49.52 were males and 50.48 females, but now the proportion is 49.07 and 50.93 per cent., respectively, the excess of females having increased from 0.96 to 1.85 per cent, in eighteen years.. Of all the provinces of Prussia only Khineland and Schleswig-Holstein show" a small preponderance of the male sex, while in East Prussia, roscn and Berlin the greatest preponderance of females is to be found. In Berlin alone, with its population of roughly 1,300,000, there are 52,419 more females than males.?Pall Mall Gazette. Explosion in a Fireworks Factory. The Unexcelled Fireworks Company, of which E.

These buildings are spread cut over an acrc of ground, and all were in full operation I Tuesdav. Shortlv after 11 o'clock there was an explosion in the building No. 33 Bennett avenue, and the brick wall fell in with a crash. There were not many workmen in that building, and the firemen prevented the flames which were caused by the explosion from sprcading to the adjoining houses. When the debris had been cleared away the body of Howard Johnson, an operative, was found. A large steel bolt had been shot into his chest, and his foot had been torn off at the ankle. Death must have ensued almost instantaneous. Near bis body another employe, James Basker. Wiis found insensible, but still alive. He : will recover.
