Sibyl Kenmere was a petted, pampered , darling of wealth-a young lady fond of j all the luxuries and enjoyments of lite- ? a leader in society, though, to give Sibyl ! her due, she never ?et herself up as a ' leader; she simply did what she pleased, not caring what anybody thought about it; but what Miss Sibyl please?! to do al ways seemed lo be just the thine-at least so society must have thought, for it would rise and do likewise. We have her word for it that she did not mind being dictated to, but she would not submit to being dictated to by bim, for, oh, how she detested ! Now, thc gentleman Miss Sibyl desig nated as "him" was thc only one of ber intimate friends or relatives who had her interest at heart that attempted to dic tate t<> her since the day she took it upon herself to "come out" as a young lady, and to this first and only dictation she refused to submit, so we must leave Sibyl to the tender mercy of our reader to pa** j judgment upon her. ""Mother, I will mit put np with it any longer!" Sibyl's cheeks were atlante, and her dark eyes dilated, as she gave vent to the above. 'Well, well, the course of true love ne- er runs smooth. Herbert has been o fing something awful again, I suppose," said Mrs. Kenmere in a soothing voice. "Mother, I know you arc only talking lightly, but it does provoke me when you speak of love between Herbert Talfourd and me. If you only knew how I detest bim ! and I will not submit to his inter ference any longer." 'My dear Sibyl, I understand how you detest him better than von do yourself," and Mrs. Kenmere smi fed quietly. "But what has happened now ?" "Why, I was driving alone in the Park yesterday, when he came up to nie, said it looked anything but lady-like to see a young lady ?mt alone driving a pair of fast ponies ; and be stepped into the phaeton, took the reins deliberately out of my hands, and drove mu home." "And, my dear, he suid what was per fectly true. I never drove out in HUCII a style ; and you are setting a very bad ex ample, Sib- 1. Already I hear com plaints of Jjlie Slome, Elsie Harrington and several others driving a fast pair, and all because they have seen you doing it." "Why, mother, i never ask any ono to follow my example. I do as I ??lease, and I have a perleet right to, so long as I know in my heart I do nothing wrong, and this day puta an end to it ; if Her bert Talfourd interferes with mc again I hall certainly otlend him." "My dear, you must remember he is an old friend ol the family, and nt pres ent our guest. If he were not very much interested in your welfare he would nut speak at all to you, for I'm sure your conduct and speech have often give him "Well, I will not be dictated to by him, and he can hereafter take an inter est in some one that will appreciate it I don't. There I" Sibyl's "there" must have settled it, for Mrs. Kenmere said no more, but suc cumbed, aa she had done all her life, to ber willful child. "I do detest him, and I won't put up with it," murmured Sibyl, as she made her way to her own room, with an angry flush upon her beautiful face. As sue opened her room-door she saw her maid sitting weeping, and instantly the anger died out of her face, and a look of sympathy was in it? stead. "Is vour little nephew any worse, Marie?" asked Si hy I. "Oh, no, Miss Sibyl, be's not worse, but I could not keep back my tears when I came hom ?. I am crying out of pure fratitude. /our kindness has saved his j | ife, Mi?fl Sibyl. Can I ever do enough to repay you." "The little fellow is much better, then ?" And the society belle turned away, and with a quick movement touched ber eyes with her handkerchief. "He will be no time recovering now, the doctor says, and he owes his life to you, Miss Sibyl. Oh, how can I ever repay you ?" "You can repay me in one way, Marie -by never saying anything more about it. "Have you been to tho Atwood??" "Yes, Miss Sibyl ; I took the wine and the fruit, as you told me." "And how is Mr. Atwood?" Mr. Atwood was the husband of Sibyl's seamstress, a man who bail been very prosperous at one time, but who had fuiled in business, mid also in health, until his wife had to take in sewing tor thc support of bim and their two chil dren. Everybody knows what support the needle of one frail woman can give a family. They were on the direct road to starva tion when Sibyl Kenmore's maid found out their condition and reported the same to her mistress. "Very low indeed, M?BS Sibvl ; be can not last many days," answered Marie. ''Is there anything else we cnn do for her, Marie ?" "Bless your tender heart, my mistress, you have, already supplied all their wants. The doctor says nothing more can he done for his patient." "Order the carriage early to-morrow morning, Marie, and we will call there." "Oh, you are so good, Miss Sibyl !" Sibyl suppressed a sigh as she said : "If those who had enough and to spare of this world's treasure do not give to j (.Sod's destitute who should?" Sibyl returned from her drive next morning, cast aside her bonnet and man tle when she entered the sitting-room, and, seeing Herbert Talfourd seated there ridding, shs Attn?? herself into m r-htiir exclaiming: "Ob, dear! I do not know what to do with myself." Herbert Talfourd half-closed his book, and looked over at her half curiously, half pityingly. "A victim of the demon ennui, I sup pose," said Herbert. "I 8UppCi6 so.!! And Sibyl smothered a little yawn. "You see i have attended to all my dress-making and shopping for this week, und here it ia only Wednesday, leaving mc all the rest of the week with nothing to do. There is no new novel out, and I feel too tired-or lazy, if you like-to drive, visit, or gossip." Sibyl uttered thisspeech defiantly, and, half closing her eye*?, leaned back in ber chair. "And you have never anything to think about but shopping, visiting, etc., Sibvl?" said Herbert, with an air of re proach. "Why of course not." And Sibyl opened wide her eyes and flashed defiance at Mr. Talfourd. "What else should a leader of society have to think about ? I beg pardon. I forgot what a tine contempt Mr. Talfourd entertained for leaders of society." "And yet," said Herbert,' without at tempting to contradict Sibyl's remark, "what glorious opportunities for doing good have the (cadera of society ! Think of what an example you might set young ladies, und elderly ladies. Sibyl, who fol low in your footsteps. You call yourself i leader, Sibyl, while you ?it here with folded hand?, nnd thc beggar crying nt pour gate-" "Well, let one of tho servants gire him icincthing to eat. Do you wish mo to go town and answer the knock?" And Sibyl's defiant laugh filled the .oom. "Oh, Sibyl!" And Herbert Ttvlfouro's handsome face looked graver than ever she saw it. "It is not the cry of one, but ol' thou sand* that rends the air around you. Flic starving, the homeless, the dying arc 'caching out their bands to such na you [br succor, and you sit here and say you liave nothing to do." "I said I was tired, Mr. Talfourd," and Sibyl rose ; "too tired even to sit und lis ien to you talking this morning. If you will excuse me-" "Sibyl !" Hu was beside her, and had her hand clasped in his. "I know how you detest me, for I have .ifton heard you saying it, but I will ineak out, anti you must listen to me this time, for i will never lecture you again. Sibyl, for tito sake of those who are in luenced by you, you must rise to a better life, for remember that " - -No life L'an be |>urer in its purpose, and strong in its strife. And all life not be purer and stronger there by !. " "And if Mr. Talfourd has finished his .ay, i'll have thc pleasure of bidding you rood morning," and, quickly withdraw ing her hand from his clasp, Sibyl swept from the room. Herbert Talfourd stood motionless where Sibyl left him, his heart torn by .'onflicting emotions. Sibyl Kenmere was the only woman ho ?vcr loved, and his love was in vain, lie could not tell her that he loved her while she felt as she did toward him, neither did he wish her to know that he iv aa her slave whilo she lcd her present life; *br Herbert hated the Bo-called leaders of society, gay butterflies of fash ion. But before to-day bo could not be lieve that Sibyl was given up body and soul to frivolous gayety. She was a moiled, petted child, but he thought that he heart in her bosom beat warm and true. One, two, three weeks nnssed away, md if Herbert Talfourd bad turned to ce, Sibyl thought he could not be colder. Ile never interfered with,'never advised 1er now. Perhaps >t was this letting ber levcrely alone that made Sibyl forget how she detested him. Now this non-interference might ac :ount for Sibyl no longer detesting Mr. I'alfourd. hut why it should keep him continually in the young lady's mind we utnnot say. Sibyl was not a moment done with her thoughts, and very often when she was not alone willi them, they were on Herbert Talfourd. "What can have come over me ? I am lot like myself," Sibyl would say in her iwn mind, aa sue wandered through the nouse like a restless spirit. Hut one day while sitting thinking of Herbert Tul fburd, she burst into tears, and with a woman's fine consistency, wondered if he was never again going to take any inter est in her, and in ber tears she mur mured : "I do some little good secretly that he knows nothing of; but hu spoke the trtuh- openly I set a bad example. Oh. ihall I ever meet another man ns good ls he !" And after this flood of tears, Sibyl was very confident that she no longer detested Herbert Talfourd. * * # * * # "Hu is dying, mitts, dying fast," Haid Mrs. Atwood, us olby! stood by the bed ode of thc sick man. "Hut God has been very good to him, miss. He has ?cnt bim another friend to-day, Mr. Her bert Talfourd, whom we knew in our bet ter duys, and oh, Miss Kenmere, he bas dready promised my husband to provide for me ami the children. I told Mr. Talfourd that you had promised to do that ; but you have already done f? much-so very much for us. Mica Ile? mere, that I am glad somebody has come to your relief." Sibyl's heart gave a great bound. Shu never could humble herself to tull Herbert that she had always gone among Loo poor and needy and helped them ; hut now bc knew that shu was not given, heart and soul to dress, fashion and gay ety, nnd-shu was glad. "Miss Kenmere, my best friend," said the dying man, opening his eye.'?, "you may never again nee me alive. will von say a prayer for me, for He will sure ly hear au angel's voice." Sibyl, with tears in her eyes, knelt be side thc bed and prayed aloud. While Sibyl's voice lilied the room the door opened and a man entered. In an instant hu took in thu scene be fore him; then going over to the bed side, he dropped on his knee beside Sibyl, bent his face on the coverlet, and wept from the fulness of his heart. When Sibyl finished her beautiful prayer she simply turned and laid ber hand on the man's head, saying "Herbert, (Jod bless you." And kneeling there, with Sibyl's hand upon his head, Herbert knew that his love was not in vain-that he would never again hear how she detested him. JOSH BILLINGS' ITBMS.-I hnv often known the tou ov a cowhide boot, located in the rite spot, to be ov more value to a yoong man than thu legacy of a rich un kle. Tho man who expecMs hi1* ??ld agc to bo taken care ov bi the world, bekasu his life haz been spent in their amuse ments or instrucksbuns, reasons like a phool and will starve like one too. I not ?ss that when a man runs his lied turin a nost. he buss us the post fust, all kreashun ami something else last, and never ktisses himself. (Jue quart of cheap whiskey, the cheaper thu better, judiciously applied will do more Dizziness for the devil than the smartest deacon he has got. Young man, learn to wail, if you un dertake to sett a hen before she is readdy vu will lose your time and confuse the lien besides.

A narrative of tho Pennsylvania cam paign, from thc beginning to the dose, written by Gen. James Longstreet, is published" in thc Philadelphia Times. (ten. I/ongstreet tells some things that have never been told, and reviews the operations of 18(53 from a point of view that is in many respects more advanta geous than is possible to any other man now living, since no man now living was so prominently concerned in them. THE FIGHT ON JULY 1ST. The encounter on the 1st of July (Jen. I^omrstreet shows to have been wholly accidental, and it wits then that he be lieves Lee committed an error in not either vigorously prosecuting tho tempo rary success, or else manreverlng so as tn compel Meade to make the attack, (len. Longstreet continues as follows: When I overtook (?en. Lee at 5 o'clock that after noon he said, to my surprise, that he thought nf attacking tien. Meade u?mn thc height.'< the next ?lay. tien. Lee was impressed with the idea that by attacking the Fed?rala he could whip them in de tail. 1 reminded him that if thc Fed erals were there in the morning il would be proof that they had their forces well in hand, and that"with Pickett in Cham bersburg, and Stuart out of reach, wc should be somewhat in detail. Ile, how ever, did not seem to abandon thc idea of attack on the next day. He seemed under a subdued excitement, which occa sionally took possession of him when "the hunt was up," and threatened his equipoise. The sharp battle fought by Hill and Ewell on that day had given him a taste of victory. THE PLAN OK ATrACK. When I left (icu. Leo on the night of thc Isl I believe that he bad made up his mind to attack, but was confident that ho had not yet deten tined ns to when the attack should be made. The assertion first mndo by Gen. Pendleton, and echoed by his confederates, that I was ordered to open the ut tack at sunrise is totally false, (.len. Lee never in his life gave me orders to open an attack at a specific hour. He was perfectly satis lied that when I bad my troops in posi tion and was ordered to attack, no time was ever lost. On the night of the 1st I loft him without any orders at all. On the morning of the 2nd 1 went to Gen. Lee's headquarters at daylight and re newed my views against making an at tack. He seemed resolved, however, and we discussed tho probable results. We observed the position of the Federals, and got a general idea of the nature ol' the ground. About sunrise Gen. Lee sent Col. Venable, of his stall", to Gen. Ewell's headquarters, ordering ?lim to make a rcconuoisance of thc ground in his front, with thc view of making thc main attack on his left. A short time niiorivonid li? fellowed Co!. Venable ::; person. Ile returned at about ll o'clock and informed me that it would not do to have Ewell upon the attaek. He finally determined that I should make'the main attaek on the extreme right. It was fully ll o'clock when Gen. Lee. arrived at the conclusion and ordered the movement. Our unny wns stretched in an elliptical curve, reaching from the front of Round Top around Seminary Ridge, and envel oping Cemetery Heights on the left; thu- covering a space of lour or five miles. The enemy occupied the high ground in front of us, being massed with in a curve of about two miles, nearly concentric with the curve described by our forces. His linc was about 1,400 yards from ours. Any one will s^o that the proposition for this inferior force to assault and drive out thc masses of troops upon the heights was a very problemati cal one. My orders from Gen. Lee were "to envelop the enemy's left uti?.! begin the attack there, following up as near as Iinasible the direction of the Emmetts mrg road." THE BATTLE OPENED. My corps occupied our right, with Hood on thc extreme right and McLaws next. Hill's corps was next to minc, in front of the Federal centre, and Ewell was on our extreme left. My corps, with Pickett's division absent, numbered hard ly 13,000 men. I ren!i?ed that the fight was to be a fearful one, but being assured that my flank would be protected by the brigades of Wilcox, Perry, Wright, Posey and Mahone moving en echelon, and that Ewell was to co-operate by a direct attack on the enemy's right, and Hill to threaten his centre and attack if opportunity of fered, and thus prevent reinforcement* from being launched cither against my self or Ewell, it seemed that we might possibly dislodge thc great army in front of us. At half-past 3 o'clock the ordci was given Hood to advance upon thc enemy, and hurrying to the head of Mc Laws division. I moved with his line Then waa fairly commenced what I dr not hesitate to pronounce the best tbret hours' fighting ever done by any troop; on any battle-field. Directly in front c us, occupying the peach orchard, on i piece of elevated ground that Geu. Lei .i...:_i ,__ ?" ,9L._i i."i.i r... i.:.. .._?:i u. iin-.i ?uv KI ui>? ants i...... ?or ... > ari:. lory, was thc third corps of the Federals commanded by Gen. Sickles. My mei charged with great spirit and dislodge! the Federals Irom the peach orchard wit! but little delay, though they fought ?tub bornly. We were then ou the crest o Seminary Ridge. The artillery wa brought forward and ?nu into position a the peach orchard. The infantry swop down the slopes and soon reached tin marshy ground thut lay between Semi nary and Cemetery Ridges, fighting thei way over every foot of ground and again? overwhelming odd?. At every step w found that reinforcements were pourini into the Federals from every side. Noth in;-, coUii4 hiop IT-y mon, However, ?r?i they commenced their heroic charge o tiie side of Cemetery Ridge. Ouratlae was to progress in the general directio: of the Emmetlsburg road, but the Fed oral troops, as they were forced fror point to point, availing themselves of th stone fences uud boulders near the moun tains as rallying point*, so annnyed on right flunk that Geu. Hood's division wu obliged to make a partial change of fror so as ti relieve itself of thia galling flan fire. This drew Gen. McLaws ti lilt! further to thc right than Gen. Lee ha anticipated, so th-t the defensive ad var tages of the ground enabled thc Federa to delay our progress until they coul occupy Little Round Top, which thc just then discovered waa the key to the position. The force thrown upon th point was so strong as to seize our righ as it were, in a vise. THE CHARGE UP CEMETERY RI DOR. Still thc hattie on our main 1'jis coi tinued to progress. Tho siter .ion was critical one. My corps had bi en fightii over an hour, having encountered ar driven buck linc after line of the enem In front of them was a high and ruggt ridge, on its crest the bulk of the urn of the Potomac, numbering six to on and securely resting behind strong po.* tiona. My brave fellows never hesitate however. Their duty was in front them, and they met it. They charger! t the hill in splendid style, sweeping ever thing before them, dislodging tho eneu in tho face of a withering fire. Win they luid fairly started up the second riilge I discovered that they were suller ing terribly from a fire that swept over their right and left ilauks, 1 also found that m> left flank waa not protected by the brigades that were to move m echelon with it. Mc Laws' line was consequently spread out to the left to protect its Hank, mid Hood's line was extended to the right to protect its flank from the sweeping fire t>f the large bodies of troops that were posted on Hound Top. These two move ments of extension so drew my forces out that I found myself attacking Cemetery Hill with a single linc of battle against not less than 50,000 troops. My two divisions at that time were cut down to eight or nine thousand men, lour thousand having been killed or '.rounded. Wo felt at every stop the heavy stroke of fresh troops-the ettirdy, regular blow that tells a soldier instantly that ho hus encountered reserves or reinforcements. Wc received un support at all, and there was im evidence of co-operation on any side. To urge my men forward under these circumstances would have been madness, and I withdrew them in good order to the peach orchard that we had taken from the Federals early in the afternoon, lt may he mentioned here ns illustrative of the dauntless spirit of these men thul when (?en. Humphreys, of Mississippi, was ordered to withdraw his troops from the charge he thought there was some mistake, and retired to a cap tured battery near the swale between the two ridges, where he halted, and when ordered to retire to the new line a second time he did so under protest. Our men had no thought of retreat. Tiley broke every line they encountered. When the order to withdraw was given a courier was sent to lien. Lee informing him of thc result of the day's work. A MAHVELLOUK ASSAULT. Before pursuing this narrative further, I shall say a word or two concerning this assault. I am satisfied that my force, numbering hardly 13,000 men, encoun tered during that three and a half hours' of bloody work not. less than lj.5,000 of the Federals, and yet their charge was not checked nor their line broken until we ordered thom to withdraw. I found that night that 4.529 of my men, more than one-third of their total number, had been left on thc field. History records no parallel to the fight by these two di visions on thc 2nd of July at Gettysburg. EWELL'S INACTION. It maj* bo imagined that I was aston ished nt thc fact that we received no sup port after we hail driven the Federals from the peach orchard and 1,000 yards beyond. If (Jen. Kwell bad engaged the army in his front at that time (say -i o'clock) he would have prevented their massing their whole army in my front, and while he and I kept their two wings engaged Hill would have found their centre weak, nnd should have threatened it while i broke through their left and dislodged them. Having failed to move at 4 o'clock while the enemy was in his front, it wr.s *tlll moro surprising that he did not advance at fi o'clock willi vigor and promptness when the trenches in front of him were vacated, or rather held by one single brigade, (as (icu. Meade's testimony before the committee on the conduct of the war states.) 11 ml be taken these trenches and scattered the brigade that held them he wo .d have found himself in the Federals' flank and rear. His attack in the rear must have dislodged the Federals, as it would have been totally unexpected it being be lieved that ho was in front with me. Hill charging noon thc centre at the same time would have increased their disorder, and we should have won thc Held. O KN. LEK'S DETERMINATION. I did not see Gen. I ce that night. On thc next morning he caine to see me, and fearing that he was still in bis disposition to attack, I tried to anticipate him by saying: "General, I have bad my scouts out all night, and I find that you still have an ext 'lient opportunity to move around to the right ol' Meade's army and manouvre him into attacking us.'' He replied, pointing with his fist at Ceme tery Hill: "Thc enemy is there, and I am going to strike him." I felt then that tt was my duty to express my con victions. I said : "General, I have been a soldier all my life. I have been with soldiers engaged in fights by couples, by squads, companies, regiments, divisions nnd armies, and should know ns well as any one what soldiers can do. It is my opinion that no fifteen thousand men ever arrayed for battle can take that no sition," pointing to Cemetery Hill. (len. Lee, in reply to this, ordered me to pre pare Pickett's division for tho nttack. I should not have been so urgent had I not foreseen the hopelessness of the proposed assault. I felt that I must say a word against the sacrifice of my men ; and then I felt that my record was snell that Gen. Lee would or could not misconstrue my motives. I snid no more, however, but turned away. Tb a most of the morn ing was consumed in r/aiting for Pickett's mc:: and getting into position. Thc plan of assault was as follows : Our artillery was to bo massed in a wood from which Pickett was to charge, and it was to pour a continuous fire upon the Cemetery. Under cover of this fire and supported by it Pickett was to charge. Our artillery was in charge of General E. P. Alexander, a brave and gif'twd ofli cer. I bad instructed Gen. Alexander, being unwilling to trust myself with the entire responsibility, lo carefully observe the effect of the fin: upon the enemy, and when it began to tell lo notify Pick ett to begin the assault. PICKETT'S CHARGE. The cannonading which opened along both lines was grand. In a few moments a courier bronglit a note to (Jen. Pickett, ii-hr* ivnu utiirwljmr n.>pr ?ne ffotU A ! 0 X li ti - djr, which, after reading, he banded lo me. It was as follows : "If you are com ing ut all you must come at once, or I can't give you proper support; but thc enemy's fire has not slackened at all ; at lci"st eigmcen guns aro still firing from thc cemetery itself." After I had read the note Pickett said to me : "General, shall I advance'.'" My feelings had so overcome me that I would not ^.peak for fear of betraying my want of confidence to him. I bowed adinna tion and turned to mount my horse. Pickett immediately said, "I shall lead my division forward, sir." I spurred my horse to t'.r wood where Alexander wn? stationed with artillery. When 1 reached him be told nie of thc disappearance of ibo seven guns which were to have led thc charge with Pickett, and that his ammunition was so low that he could not properly support the charge. I at once ordered him to stop Pickett until tho ammunition bad been replenished, lie informed me that ho had no ammunition with which to replenish. I then saw that there was no help for it, and that Pickett mustadvance under his orders. He swept past our artillery in splendid style, and the men marched steadily and com pactly down thc slope. As they started up tho ridge over one hundred- cannon from tho Drcastworks of tho Federals hurled a rain of cannister, grapo and shell down upon them; still they pressed on until halfway up the slope, when tho crest of the bill was lit with a.solid sheet of flame a* tho masses of infuntry rose and fired. When tho Hitiokc cleared away Pickett's divinion wa? gone. Near ly two-thirds of hin mea lay dead ou the field, and the survivors were sullenly re treating down the hill. Mortal man could not have stood that fire. In half an hour the contested field was cleared and tho battle of Gettysburg was over. The Trnih About Liberia. WASHINGTON, NOV. 6. The department of State bas received information from Liberia on the subject of the condition of that country mid its adaptability for colonization. Il is represented that the frequently repeated statements as to thc fertility of thc soil and the beauty of the c ?untry are correct, bul that me climate on I ho seacoast is very dangerous to all but the natives. Horses, mules and donkeys cannot live there. Horses are found in thc interior, but when brought to the seacoast sicken and die. Although as to temperature constant summer prevails, yet tho mias matic influnce caused by tho heavy rains alternating with hot sunshine causes sickness during six month of the year, and during thu remaining six months the power of the sun is such that it is almost impossible for any but natives to work. The mean temperature is about eigty-five degrees, but on account of the dampness of the climate the heat is sultry, depress ing and weakening. There is still very little civilization, and very little agricul tural enterprise. Liberia has never produced sufficient food for her own consumption, "rid al though she should be a great rice-grow ing country, rico is imported from Eng land and other countries, and sold at four dollars a bushel-twice tho cost at which better rice could bc grown and sold there. Flour is fourteen dollars a barrel, butter one dollar a pound, and hams from five dollars to eight dollars each. Other pro visions arc proportionately high. There is mit a plow in usc in Liberia, and the agricultural implements arc of tho most Iirimilive character, such as eu tl asses,hoes, lill-hooks, &.C.. Thorn aro no public schools. The immigrant has to compete with the native labor. The natives are strong and hardy, and one of them will do the work of a horse nt fifty cents a day. The settlers wanted in Liberia, as thoughtful and prominent Liberians re cognize, arc those who can afford and would prefer to pay their expenses of voyage and settlement. Tlie .nek hilly country is said to be fine and Healthy, but it is penetrable only by tho foot-paths which have been cut by the natives through the almost im penetrable forests, and everything must be borne ou tho heads or backs of native carriers, as there are no roads. The fact is that the settlers cannot go tn tho "high hills mid undulating plains" said lo bein thc interior of Africa without means to provide themselves with roads, and with out treaties of commerce ned friendship '.'.:!!'. thc r-.,;.; petty ' i ?gs, wS?C ar? in many instances ci'oe.- openly or covertly hostile. Il wuild frequently be noccHsnry to enforce auch treaties by means of an armed force, as England and other European powers which have African possess i uns have found from ex perience. An interesting account of the plan of African development carried out by the llritish at Sierra Leone is given. At first young Africans from the colony were educated in Europe, with thc view of qualifying them to liai? .'.id lend their countrymen, but it was found that such education somewhat unfitted them for their lifo in Africa, and, therefore, schools and a college were established at Sierra Leone for the education of young Africans, hundreds of whom are now ed ucated yearly and prepared to tako an active part in the development of their country. So fsr as yet seen this plan of thc evangelization and civilization of Africa by the indigenous peoples with the aid of foreign nations seems practi cable and likely to succeed. Tho estab lishment of manual labor schools in Li beria is suggested. Some of the native tribes, especially tho Vei tribe, forty miles from Monrovia, are of remarkable intelligence, ami could be niadi.'. usn of in the development of Liberi:.. A pille Trees. It is well known to pomningists that apple trees form their fruit buds in tho early part of thc growing season on wood of the previous year's growth. Aa a matter of course, in thc bearing season, the-so fruit buds must bc grown and per fected while the tree is taxed lo sustain the growth of a crop of fruit. If this crop of fruit is very large, '.liing every part of the tree, there is but little chance (br thc production of fruit-buds for the next season. Sometimes, in the bearing year, there will bo a section of tho tree, from some i nknown cause, barren, and that section #111 produce n good crop the next year, while tho portion which bore will be barren. Wo have irees of this character in our orchard. These facta go to provo that the apple tree can not perfect a large crop of fruit annually. This is a great misfortune. Thu apple is such a wholesome luxury, such a neces sity lo gone living, that it is very desira ble that there should be au abundant supply every year. Is there any means by which so desirable a result can bo ac complished ? We know of but ono way, and thnt i such a difficult one that we can hardly expect it to bo employed to any consid erable extent. It is to remove tho blos soms from a part of tl.o trees on the bear ing year, or, perhaps, it would bo less labor to cut or pick oft the young fruit as soon as formed. We think this would bo pretty certain to induce the growth of fruit-buds for tho next year's crop. But will this change bo permanent, so that tho trees thou fronted will '?olltinilO tr, I . " -- '. . .i ._-e oear meir largest crops m mc vvma ui scarcity ? Wo can see but one cause that may prevent it, and that is the fol! . wing : Every few years occurs a season when, from some cause or other, (perhaps a heavy frost while tho trees are In bloom,) there is a completo failure of thc crop. Then ali the trees would form fruit buds and probably boar P heavy crop the suc ceeding year. We think this also ex plains why orchards planted different yoars, and perhaps beginning to bear in alternate years, after the lapso of a few years are all bearing together.- Cor.

Patterson to tho .Senate and the part played hy his man Friday : JOINT INVESTIGATION COMMITTEE, COLUMUIA. Sept. 12, 1877. J. Felder Meyers, Esq., being duly sworn, deposes on oath as follows: J. Felder Meyers is my name, residence in Orangeburg, S. C. I was a member of thc legislature from Oraugeburg County for the sessions of 1872-3 and 1873-4. The election of John J. Patterson to the office of United States Senator was during the first of these sessions, in De cember, 1872. A abort time before the slid election Gen. H. O. Worthington carno to mo, nnd said that Patterson wanted to see me, that Patterson h'dd some money for tho boys who would volo for him. I don't recollect positively whether Worthington named any specific amount or not. Worthington on several occasions urged ?ne to go and see Patter son. I called on Patterson nt his rooms, over where Kino used to keep, and was ushered into Patterson's private room by Gen. Worthington. There were several in tho room nt the time ; don't remember who, except that Senator Jamison, of Orange burg, was one. Patterson asked them to 0 out, as he desired to see me on private usiness. They went out, and Patterson and myself remained in the room. Patterson began tho conversation by speaking of the excitement over tho ap proaching election of United States Sen ator, and said ho lind euchred Scott and some others in some railroad transactions. I think ho mentioned the Greenville Railroad for one, and thai, while they didn't expect to bc elected, they wore trying to makehimspend ns much money as possible. That ho was ready to spend thc money, and ns tho members of the Legislature bad had tu spend a good deal to got here, he didn't expect them to vote for him for nothing. He said ho had Senator Jamison, and that ho thought if ho could get mo he would Becuro tho House delegation. He then asked roo if 1 would voto for him, and I told him I had not thought over tho matter yet, but I would give him an answer before the election. Ho then said that if I made up my mind to vote for him he had five hun dred dollars for mc, and to call in and get it, and to bring tho House delegation from Ornngcburg along with me if I could. I then left him. I saw Mm again on tho morning of tho day before the election ; he was in com nany with Worthington, I think. I told liim I had made up my mind not to voto for him. Ho said ho had the Orange burg Senator and tho balance of. tho members from Ornngcburg, and that I had better come over with tba r^st. If? ? renewed the offer of fivo hundred dollars if I would do sn, I declined the oiler. At tho election I voted for R. K. Scott. Resides the five hundred dollars at the first interview, Patterson also told me that we, i. e., his Orangcburg supporters, could have the control of the postofilec at Oraugeburg if ho was elected. J. FELDER MEYERS. September 12, 1877. Slr john Franklin. Thu fate of Sir John Franklin's expe dition derivos renewed interest from tho report of Thomar. A. Rarry, a returned Hudson Bay whaler, of thc sufferings and death of the lost survivor of tho Erebus and Terror, ~btained from tho E-ami manx, with whom ho passed lust winter. The crow of the New Redford whaling ?h;?? A. Houghton, of which Mr. Rarry was malo, went into winter quarters last October on tho northern shore of Hud son's Ray, witera they wera joined by about one hundred and fifty Esquimaux. The natives wera full of auocdotes of tho visit to their settlement at Capo Ingle field of a party of white men, who canje among them many years ago, perishing io a singlo winter of cold anti hunger, and who were buried with their books, papers ami valuables beneath heaps of stones. From tho Esquimnux's descrip tion, these mon wcro cvidcutly the rem nnnt of Franklin's exnoditiou, whose fate and burial-place hud been before un known. The natives exhibited several relics as proof of thc accuracy of their statements, and Rn ry succeeded in ob taining from them sonic spoons, one marked with Franklin's crest and tile others with an unknown monogram. Thc natives offered to pilot tho crew of the A. Houghton to thc mounds, but thu sailors were in no condition to make a thousand miles' journey of exploration. Mr. Rarry's story, however, has induced Morrison & Brown, tho well known New York shipping agents, who fitted out tho Polaris, to send an expedition next spring, under Mr. Rarry's command, to discover tho burial-mounds of these last of Sir John Franklin's men, and obtain the valuable relics which are probably preserved lhere If the Rritish govern ment's offer of $100,000 for the recovery of the recels of tho expedition is still open, thc firm will equip a. vessel nt their own expense ; if not, they will try to se cure subscriptions of $15,000, and, if that fails, they will send a whaler, BO that the expenses may be defrayed by cruising for oil. Mr. Rarry proposes to land on the western shore of Hudson's Ray, and reach Cape Inglefield, 500 miles distant, by means of sleds and dogs. Sir John sailed on his fatal expedition, with tho ships Erebus and Terror, in May 1845. Tho protracted absence of tho party caused great anxiety, and ir? 1848 bogan the series of rescue expeditions, by the Rritish Government and by private par ties, which have cost so great an cxpen i .Hture ot treasure to so little eUect. Lady Franklin's faithful devotion caused re peated efforts to be made, for many years after hope itself hid died out of cory other heart ; and in 1850, at Capo Riley, the explorers carno upon tho site of a tent, paved with small stones, and tho bones of birds. At Recchy Island, near the entrance of Wellington Channel, empty meat-cans were found, and tho embankment of a house; also working places for carpenters and other workmen, and finally threo desolate frozen graves, whore members of the party were buried, who, it appeared by the mark? ou tho j stones, died in tho winter of '45-0. Mc clintock ii '59 found fu'thor traces of the lost expedition ; but this latest dis covery, which comes now, after Lady Franklin's faithful soul has joined her husband in another world than ours, seems to bo the most direct and import ant of any.
