TIRE? MOTHKB?J. A little elbow leads upou your knee, Your Uredikneo, that hna so rOucli to beor; A child's dear eyes ate looking lovingly - From underneath a thakb of tangled hair Perhaps you do not heed tho velvet touch Of warro, moist fingers, holding yours so tight; You do not prize this blessing overmuch. You almost are too tired to pray to-night. But it ls blessedness ! A year ago . I did not seo it as I do to-day We aro so dull and thaiifcles* j oAd too s'ow To catch the sunshine! lill It slips away.' And now it seems surpass!: g strange tome, That while I wore tho'.adgoof motho: hood. I did not kiss more oft and tenderly, Thc little.child that brought ino only good. And If, some night when you ?It down to rest, I You miss this elbow from your tired knee ; This restless, curling head from off your breast, This lisping tonguo that chatters con stonily ; If from y our own the dimpled hands had. Blipped.: And ne'esr wpnld'hcstw In.your palm ?g>.fn* If tho white .feet into their gravo had tripped, I coule! not blame you for your heartache then! I wondet so that mothers ever fret At little children clinging to their gown ; Or that tho footprints when tho days aro wet? . Are ever black enough to make them frown. If I could find n little muddy boot, Or cap or j a cl: ct, on my cb a ic ber (loor ; If I could kiss a rosy, restle s foot And hear Its patter In my home once more; If * could mend a broken cart to-day, To-morrow make a kite to r ?eli tho sky There is no woman in God's world could say Sho was moro blissful content than I ? But, ah ! thc dainty pillow next to my own Is never rumpled by a shining head, My singing binning Iron his nest is honn ; . Tho little hoy I mod to kiss ls dead l ONLY. Only a baby, yon can't but kiss,.1. Only a child, mother would miss. Only a boy, and just what he Booms; Only a youth, living in dreams. Only n man bravo and true ; Only a father, with feeling so now. Only a grandpa, waiting for rest; Only a mound by dew-drops caressed. Yucatan's Antiquities. Although,a number of American and | European archaeologists have visited, the j r lined cities bf tho peninsula of Yucatan, none of them, with the exception of Dr. August Le.Plongeon and Mrs. Le Pion* j geon, have spout any length of time ex cavating tho ruins. Dr. Le Plongeon nnd hla wife went from New York to the city of Merida in the year 1873, and re mained there uutil 1877.. During that time they were successful in unearthing tho famous "Chaac-Moll" statuo which is now in the National Museum of tho City of Mexico, ? Dr. Lo Plongeon and Mrs. Le Plongeon were in New York yes terday, and tho World reporter was sent lo interview them on tho subject of an tiquities in Yucatan. Dr. Lo Plongeon spoke at some length of bis own and his wife's experiences at Chicken-Itea, Uxmal and Mnynpan, and i said : "When wo arrived at Merida I wrote to the Governor of the Province caking him if we might VIBU the ruins, which wero then, in tho hands pf tb'/rev olutionists, who were lighting against the Federa! authorities of Mexico, to which the Governor replied that if we dared go wo wero welcome, and placed at my dis posai 10Qsoldiers es a body-guard, "With this forcb and. sixteen pickc'4 workmen we wont into ino country and began our explorations. Wo kept tho troops with us until they began to grumble at the dftlays and wnntcd to know when we would get through. I sold that wo had not) begun yet, and sent them ba?c to Merida so that wa could continuo our work in peace. A long time was spent in deciphering hieroglyphics on the walla of the buildings, and from these we were directed to tho artificial mound whore tho statue of Chaao-Moll was buried. ' As soon ns we had unearthed it I wrote to Pedro do Tejada, then President of Mex ico, and asked his permission to take the statuo to tho Exposition at Philadelphia. Six months elasped before I received a reply, which told mo that according to a law passed about tho year 1827 we couB not remove any of ibo rolles from tho country, so after all our labors and ex penditure of^monoy tho Moxlcan govern ment took tho sturm without-.giving ~ any recompense." "Is thisjprohlbitory-law stllljo Ibrco?" "Yesrief when tho Emperor Maxi milian was dethroned all the laws'' mado by him wero set aside and declared an?, nulled and void. This revived the old laws,, among which was one on which they seized . our statue. When wo came homo I tried to get, at least, scone .r? compense from tho Mexican government for the time and money spent, but up'to the present time we hato not succeeded. ? Secretary Evarta wrote to our Minister at '. Mexico asking him to assist us by every proper means in his power. Even this did not help us, although .tho law ia in our favor, for ATUCIO 850 of the Civil Code of Yucatan , reads: 'When the ob jects discovered be interesting to science or aH the 8tato may take them by pay ing their j?st'vnluo, whlfch will be divi dend according to what ia said in Articles 864 and 855/ which says one-half shall bolong to the under and the other half to tho ironer of tho land." "What, then, havo you to show as tho resolta of your labor?" "Mme. Do Plongeon and myself took photographs of all the ruine we visited, and via also asado tracings of the mural ruilnljnga" As th's doctor opoko he went to a largo" truuk and presently returned with a largo roll which contained a nembefr of the tracings. "These." he said, "We got after four months of hard work and many dangers abd privations, me rstte, ?? he unfolded them, showed figures of mea and women anddrawiugs of houses, The drawings are of a hierher order than those of the ancient Egyptians, but have the sarao want of perspective. Snake*, mon keys and pigs are represented, and one, of the drawings was a peculiar animal having a head not unlike that of a hone, the upper portions of tho body being like that of a. kangaroo, and the lower p??t Uko a large gorilla, minus the tai). Nono of tho murals, bas-reliefs or carvings show that hones wore used. The soldiers fought with a wcapou like tho Zulu aa sego, and carried shields. Many of them are represented aa wearing breastplates sud K lidals. Tho costume* cf the la dies sirs pTiS?ts ?..?si. hm bi~u; ?cr? eichornto. Hats of extraordinary pro portions, with feather trimming, decked' tho heads of all tho distinguished ladies, and feather cloaks were worn by tho prints, and high dignitaries, After placing the tracings, in order, Dr. Lo Plongeon said, that t>:.y told th? story of the lifo of Cbaac-Moll, who was cot a god buk a groat gent..cl, afterwards alain by his brother ABC To any one' who ls familiar with the story of leis and . dirts ju Egyptian mythology they only have io call Osiris Chaac-Moil-the tiger, atti who always carries a shield covered with tho skin of a spotted tiger; Isis, Ivlnich-Kakmo; Typhon.

Kneeling ilf-sister1 standing at est Son Huun?ay {who inc,) holding the nan bind up tho wound. son, his daughter, hit iMrd son, ?nd last of all his mother. Speaking of the sim 51 arUy of tho two stories, Dr. Le Pion {'eon said that probably the life of Chaac loll was tho origin ortho Egyptian my thology and was Known in the Emit be fore the submission of the Atlantis. Ground plans of many of the buildings were next shown to toe reporter. These were drawn in minuto detail by Dr. and Mrs. 5 e Fiongeon foot by foot through the underbrush which now covers them. One plan shews the Priest's Palace, which contains 108 rooms and is surrounded by broad terraces. Anotherahowa the plan of a royal palace, and a third gives sn idea of the tennis court, or bail ground of the time, whore the carly Mayan play ed beforo the prinpesand rulers. "What other impo 'ant discoveries did you make?" "Wo foo od traces of three distinct races of people-giants, medium-sized people ana dwarfs. The statue of Chaac-Moll and lifo-siseddra'wingsof bim, and others that we found represents the first class, and tho mural paintings show thc second and third. We alsa.fotind bas-reliefs of | bearded men. and buildings wherein dwarfs had lived. These houses-Were of lime lone, roughly built, and we know that only dwarfs could have lived in them, for the doorways are but three feet high by eighteen inches wide, while inside they wore only three feet high and six feet long. Wo visited tho city of Nisucte on tho coast opposite tho Isla Mugeres which had only these kind of buildings." "Did you find any inscriptions to help you in your work ?" "We discovered tiint the people who in habited these cities bad a regular system of writing just aa wo have. In a build ing caliea by the Indians 'Acab?ib,' mean ing 'Mysterious writing,' we found n stone bearing an inscription which I am now engaged in deciphering. I call it my Uosetta stone." "An old Indian," interposed Mme. Le Plongeon, "told us of a tradition which has it .hat the inscription is a prophecy that at some future timo a string w'olud ho stretched from city to city so that men could speak together. This looks like a prophecy of tho telephoto or telegraph, so I have rechristened tho building and taken from Maya grammar another word which I think equally applicable, name ly, 'Aicabsid,' mqaning to Write in a hur ry.' v "Have you touud anything as far as iou have gone iii the translation of tbe nscrlption which tends lo corroborate this legend?" "That I am not at liberty to say n't pres ent. The study of the hieroglyphic? has really bceu the hardest part of the work. Homo gentlemen bavb said that they deci phered them hy the aid of tho Landa key, batit cannot bc so, as the inscription on my Rosetta stone contains many forms which Landa does not give and which have nosimilnrity to any forms in other languages. I may say, however, that tho Maya language contains letters and words which are used in all the known corly Inn- | gqages,and tbeso nre'uscd in the inscrip tion." Dr. Ive Plongeon then, hy the aid of a dictionary and bis own method, read a portion of tho "Aicabsid," and afterwards said: "It was this method and this knowledge of tho Mnya characters, which lean safely say aro known to no other people than mysolfand Mrs. Lo Plongeon, that holpcd mo to find out where Chaac Moll was buried." "Did you ever hear any legend of the origin of these cities?" askodthe repor ter of Madame Le Plongeon. "Whenever I asked tho Indians who built the eitlen their answer was always 'they wero built by the Aluxob,' meaning theawarf race. 1 hey also ray that they soe the dwarfs sometimes, that they come and knock on the tables and doors. Their alleged. appearance is not looked upon with superstition, as they nro notsupposod to do any good or harm. Tho Indians also Bay they see them on the plazas, and that 'they look like small people with largo bats.' " Dr. Le Plongeon, at tho conclusion of ! tho interview, said that he was certain more important traces of an older civiliza tion than thono brought to light in tho Eastern Hemisphere will be found in Yu catan, but that the investigations will be fraught with great danger, owing to the revolutionary tendencies of tho people. He agrees with Senor Perez, whose views were printed In tho, World yesterday, that Iudiaus ai? ^susceptible of a higher civilization if properly managed.-Jv. Y, World, May 10.' Thc Unllelcss Witness.

Where it is designed to feed oats in the sheaf to stock, it is bater that it should bo cut early, just so soon as the milk forms into dough. The advantages de rived from cutting early may be stated as follows : 1. There ls no loss from shattering of the grsiu. ? 2. It renders the straw more digestible sud more palatable. 3. It vacates the land ten to fifteen days earlier for a fallow crop of peas or for forage crops or ?weet potatoes. In fact, on rich land, colton may follow early cut ot?ls or other grain. When sheaf oats that have been al lowed to ripen thoroughly before be!ng cut aro fed to stock, they refuse general ly to eat the straw, and not for the rea son that it is void of all nutriment ?even in that case, but from the fact that they waste and soil it in their efforts to eat uj the grain heads first, and because of thc harshness of the straw, resulting from itt uv tr ripened condition. It ls a ver) great economy to have thc oats cut up sc that tho grain becomes mixed with thc straw and the straw cannot be pulled oui of the rack or mauger and .?oiled undei foot. Oat straw possesses considerable nutriment, and we might to strive tc utilize it to its fullest extent. I For the purpose of fodder, a ton and i i half of sheaf oats, cut early, w'iile tin stalk is more or less green to wt a .in foui or five inches of the ground, is wort! two tons, and often more, of that whicl is allowed to become dead ripe befori cutting. For all practical purposes I may sometimes be worth twice us much taking into consideration all the gah that may be secured by early cutting, a above indicated. This is not a mer matter of speculation theory, for i hus been abundantly pt oven to be true Let the farmer that has any doubts oi the subject try it this season, sud severn successive seasons if necessary, on a hal aero if no more, and he will soon be con vined that it is better to cut early. As soon as the stalk becomes dry nea the ground, cr ns soon as the grain is ou of the milk, is tbe proper time to cul Oats for seed should bc left to mature, c course. It should bo tied und shucke as fast as cut, letting it cure in the sbucl If a first-class quality of fodder is dc sired, do not let it lie in swath, expose to the sun even a half day if avoidabh Oats cut and cured thus and run tbroug a fodder-cutter (uico work for w< weather cutting up a Bupply of it) is ur duubtedly tho cheapest food we can prc vide for our stock, and we ought to lear how lo preserve and feed it witina waste. Tender oat straw, as secured b early cutting, is palatable andmitritiou pr.d makes a very fair quality of manur and twenty-five to forty pounds of she oats of this character, when cut up, ample allowance for any ordinary hon or mule udder rigorous work. Tl wasteful practice of using oat or otb grain straw for bedding ought to 1 stopped, by all those farmers especial who bave access to pine straw xor th purpose. By all means let tho gra etraw be passed through the stock if i full value would be realized. Unpalat ble ns it may often provo, yet stock w eat and do tolerably well on it, but th won't eat pine Btraw. Let the farme watchword bo "a sound economy in i things." 8. A. C. Beamed lum. For several years psst a new for? Sriant has been attracting the attention armers ia certain districts of Flori: South Carolina, Georgia and. Alaban and p.v. who have put it to the test culture are loud in its praiso as a m valuable acquisition. Originally it \ known for common as "Beggar s Liq but some who do not seem to regard i last word in the name an standing erst! ly in keeping with the refinement a modesty of tue ?ge, have dropped it t substituted "Weed ;'' therefore Ute pl: new usually goes by tho common u* of either "Beggar's Llco" or "B?a Weed.?

Tho species under . tivatlon. os already mentioned, is kn? to botanists as Dcsmodium molle, a ni given to it by De Condoli?. It is. ii genous to Middle Florida, but seem: succeed very well in any of the aoia< States. Dr. Chapman describes it in '.'Flora of the Southern States" as lows : Stem tall, much branched, softly bercent; lr-leb rhombic or ollepti obtuse and often omarginato tomen beneath, rough above ; racemes panic slender : Sowers,' two br three toge! on slcuuer pedicles ; legume nearly sile, black ; tho small joints oval or rb hie. equally convex on both sutt ?Stem three to five feet high.
