" I was riding along on the railroad
the other day, we stopped at a station
and a colored 'scurscbioa' g<>t on and
settled down all around mc- They
were well dressed and well behaved,
but when the conductor came along
after tickets two of {heat hud no tickets
and no money. He stopped the train
in thc woods and put them oil. ? was
sorry fer thc rascals, for they did want
to go so bad. I asked some of tho
crowd why they dident loud thew some
money, and they showed their pearly
teeth and said : Wc know dcm niggers ;

along, tiuk de conductor no find 'ctn.
You know, boss, dar is always some

expressed it righi though nc dident
mean it. T?tere arc a power of gouts
in this sublunary world, and if it was
not for a few sheep scattered, society
and law and order would bc in a bad

Dut I like thc nigger. ? like him
better than ? did ten years ago. I can
look back and remember what he was
soon after thc war, and ? am satisfied
he ts improving Ile works better and
is more respectful. ile has almost
ijttii politics and settled down to his
natural condition. 1 don't know so
well about thc towns and cities, but the
country niggers ure doing very well
where they are raised up with white
folks in the right proportion. Most all
negroes are good natured, and love to
depend cn the white man, but the
white mau, mast treat thom fairly and
kindly and set like he was not only a
master but a friend. The negro is
conscious oi his inferiority and is con?
ten? with it. Re likes, a man who
orders him around in a dignified way
hotter than the mau who puts himself
on an equality with him. Thc white
man was born to command and the
negro knows if.. Tho white man ranks
him, and rank is a thing recognized
and submitted to everywhere, .and has
been in all ages, and it is right. Hank
is the safeguard of thc social circle. I
rank some folks and some folks rank
me, and wc arc all happier and feel
more at ouse in our own circles than in
those above us. I was once invited to
a part y in a fashionable city, and there
were distinguished gentlemen t?tere and
splendid ladies, ami I put on my very
best behavior, and??ifter while a lady
friend called me out on thc verandah
and laughingly toid mc that the hos?
tess, a lovely and accomplished lady,
said to her : "Oh, my dear, I feel so
much relieved, for 1 dident. know Mr
Atp and was afraid he was rough and
common, and wouldeut know how to
behave in this elegant company, but 1
find him to be a perfect gentleman.'
You see they ranked me and ! knew it,
but I came out pretty we'd. When 1
tdd Mrs. Arp about it site said : * Well,
t dont wonder at ir, for you write so
much foolishness the people who dont
know us think wc are all crackers.'
Then she looked away off, and added ;
4But I dont care. I know what you
aro, and its nobody's business. We
ran ??ave gentlemen here as well as
there. Some folks dont know a gentle?
man when they soe him.* 'i?ut you
do. my dear,' said i. 'You always
did. You hud that knowledge away
buck yonder, and that is thc rcasuu you
_?
'Nevermind that now,' said she;
'that will do. The best of us arc mis?
taken sometimes.' And she resumed
.her work.
Thc negro is a good invention, and
he wi?i continue to be good as long as
he L a ..<?;';.;>. V? hen they try toad bim
up with a hifalutin education and make
a white mau of him, he becomes a
new creature and a purdie nuisance.

smart set every year, but where are

- well, ask anybody who knows. A
mau said to mc not long ago that thc
fact that the negro was capable of a high
order of education was proof enough i
that they ought to have it. There was
an educated hog exhibited in Home
some vcars ago, and ?iee,uh! spell your
name with card-, at;?: tedi the time of j
day on a walch. Bo I suppose we
ought to set up ali the hogs in a school ;
house.
'Now, thc negro is a distinct creation
of the tilmighty, ;tud hus original trulls
and instinct: as ali the unmixed nations
have. lie loves li present g<?od, and
has no morbid desire to accumulate

He wouldent rob a bank. If he found
a pocketbook with n big roll of money
in it ho would take it to some white
mau ; but he wilt pick up little things
like a chickeu, or a bushel of corn, or
a dollar, or a breastpiu with a serene
and peaceful conscience. ?Smai! pilfer?
ing is the extent of hts capacity and
the extent of his inclination. When
my darky finds a hen's nest and brings
me half thc egg^I thank Lim. Whoa
our cook Lides awaya little Hour Mrs
Arp shuts her eyes and says uotbing,
for it hurts their feelings so bad to bc
aroused when they aro gullly.
But for hard work, corrected work,
humbie work, who could take their
places on thc farms and on thc drays,
and thc steamboats and the railroads?
Who would do the white man's bidding
with so little murmuring and so much
cheerfulness ? Thc negro is still aa im?
portant factor in our southern homes
and southern industries, and I hope he
will remain, ile is grafted on to the
southern tree. Oilier nations have
seen transplanted, and live and pros?
per. Tho Jews, like thc mistletoe,
fasten and feed upou every tree, but
they have preserved their habits, their
religion and their nationality. Thou
let thc negro alone My faith is: that
a wise I'residence will take care of him
and of us. BILL ? KP.
Keeping Fruit Witiiout Cans.
In our issue of July l?th, says thc
Prairie Farmer, wc published a com?
munication from thc editor of the Sharon
(Mass.) Advocate, describing a simple
process of keeping fruits in bowls and
ether ?-pen for /csscls, simply covered
with thc unglazed cotton, such as is
purchased in the stores rolled in blue
poper, as follows : 'Directions : Usc
crocks, stone butter jars, or any other
convenient dishes. Prepare and cook
the fruit precisely as tor canning in
glass jars: fill your dishes with thc
fruit while it is yet hot, and immediate?
ly cover with cotton batting securely
lied on. Remember that ali putrefac?
tion is caused by the invisible creatures
in the air. Cooking tho fruit expels
all these, and as they eau not pass
through cotten batting, 'he fruit thus
protected will keep an indefinite period.
Tho writer of this has kept berries;
cherries, plums, aud many other kinds
of fruit for two years with no cover save
batting on the jars.'
[As previously stated, if fruit can
thus be unfailingly kent, it is a matter
cf great interest. Wc Cnd in the
Sha rou Advocate of July 25th, our ar?
ticles and remarks copied, and the fol?
lowing editorial remarks, which are
confirmatory of tho previous statements,
and we advise at least a limited trial of;
the process by our readers. We will :
not discuss tho theory of thc method, j
which is of less ita mediate importance :
than the practical outcome. Mr. Wiekes
'This subject is of such importance to
tbo public, and so little understood,
taut wc again refer to it. Brother
Judd, Iviitor of tho Fratrie Farmer,
is no doubt correct in supposing that
the preservation of fruits in tightly
sealed cans results from tho exclusion
of the oxygen of the air. Wc suppose,
however, that depriving the Bacteria of
oxygen deprives thom of life, as no :
auimal lifo can exist without it. Pro- j
fesser 'lyndall demonstrated several j
years ago that ail putrefaction was !
caused by the Bacteria in the air, and \
could be prevented by enclosing tito ar- j
tiele in cotton batting.
'The published results of Tyndall's j
experiment fell under the c\c of Dr. ;
Chase, an eminent physician of Thom- :
aston, Matoo, and he at once saw its :
practical value. At his suggestion, ?
Mrs. Chase put up several gallons of
Damson plums in stone pois with but
little sugar, the jars being only covered
with cotton batting. Thc plums kept
perfectly, until opened one and two
years afterward Mrs. Chase told thc
result to the editor of the Advocate, and
and we have for three years put up ber?
ries in the sante way. and never had a
jar fail to keep. Last year we opened
in the presence of several people, ajar
of blueberries that had been put up just
two years, and feund them in nice or?
der. To Professor Tyndall belongs the
honor of the discovery, and to Mrs.
Chase the honor of being the first to
make a practical use of it. Wo desire
to make so useful a matter known to
tito genera! public, and we only claim !
to have been thc first to publish thc
directions.'
How to Euio Hen.
'I think if women only knew how
sweet and lovely they arc and hov?
much they can do with men they would
pay more attention to their personal
cultivation than they do. Why, if a
woman only gees about it right she can
do anything with a man, and make him
conform to her ideas in every particu?
lar. She has tact, skill, talent, beauty,
refinement, and comLiue her intuition

can bc remarkably well kept and KO be?
comingly arranged as to bc admired ;
the most irregular teeth can bc polished
like so many pearls, and clean toe!h and

be despised : white hands and tapering,
polished nails will atone for a very iii
shane of hand. What it* the feet arc

healthy looking and so delicately per?
fumed that your very presence will bo
wholesome and refreshing, and, I iel!
you, clothes make thc refinement that
belongs to a lady or gentleman. In?
deed thc raiment is typical of much that
is within. If nature I?as meagerly be?
stowed her charms, that is thc very
reason why a woman should have re?
course to art. If she cannot shine in
music, pain laing or thc sciences, she
can become a pleasant if not a brilliant
talker. She can read and observe and
bc an authority on current literature,
and if she will but study thc why and
wherefore of things and the very host
points in her friends, she can make for
herself a circle that will bc thc very
envy of her prettiest competitor.
?For instance, we will suppose she is
invited to a theatre or a concert. Let
her procure a programme in advance
and make a study of the play, the
actors, the music, ur thc artists. Let
her have some interesting matter io
talk about. The gentleman goes to the
expense of thc entertainment and hus a
right to expect that the lady bc has
favored will snow her appreciation in
some way.
'Natural? Oh, I hate natural peo?
ple ? They arc rude, curt, heedless and
presumptuous. I like people to antici?
pate my pleasures. 1 like to hear them
say pretty things, to use pretty lan?
guage, and to acquire. pretty manners.
One need not necessarily bc a hypo?
crite, but if there is any cindee I prefer
thc polite hypocrisy of thc French to
the rude candor of thc l-ritons.'

Eaeli Pounded a Tempor?neo
Society,
Judge William Carter, of Sheboygan,
Michigan, and Judge Caswell Marks,
of Selma, Alabama, were beth natives
of Lexington, Kentucky. In boyhood
they had jammed the same cat's head
into thc same milk pitcher, stolen
peaches from the same tree, got
trounced by thc rame farmers, and were
otherwise enviously intimate friends,
afterward chums at college and then
errand boys iii thc same of??cc. Later
in life they parted, and rose to sublime
honors in their separate places. Last
January they met for the first time
since their parting, iu Lexington, and
brewed a convivial, bowl in honor of
the event. About midnight, full of af?
fection and enthusiasm, they retired in
the same bed. It was a huge affair,
standing in the middle of the room, and
capable of being drawn up by ropes to
tim coiling while thc room was being
cleaned. It was a very cold night, and
they placed their clothing upon thc foot
of the bcd. Just after they fell asleep
four friends entered softly, drew the
bed by the ropes nearly to the ceiling,
and left them thus suspended about ten
feet from thc fiouf. They then locked
the door outside and retired.
At o A. ?d. Judge Carter woke with
that species of thirst which usually
comes after Kentucky punch and tech?
nically known as dtot coppers.' Leap?
ing lightly out of bed to get tito ice
pitcher, ho wont, whirling down ten
feet, alighting with a soul-stirring
tl:ump on ali fours.
There was a long and painful ptiu^e.
Then he peered upward through thc
darkness and called :

And Judge Marks sitting out on lus

were now convinced that they had
fallen iuto a den of thieves, and were
possibly to bc murdered. Tho jokers

cial representatives of tho Exposition
commissioned by President Arthur, fer
rhe purpose of procuring exhibits Us TC
found the newspapers ready to report
speeches end print thc latest news relat?
ing to thc World's Fair. This circum?
stance no doubt springs from the fact
that thc people throughout the bind
read with much interest all that is
printed concerning this great enter?
prise. By the wide-spread influence
of the press the Exposition is known
and talked about in India, Australia,
on thc banks of the Congo, in the .South
American republics., and in the frozen
regions of the North . Seeming impos?
sibilities have been uvereomc, and tlie
scheme limited to a cotton exhibition
at ?irsr, has been enlarged by degrees
'.iii i: now embraces a grand exposition
of arts, manufactures, mines, agricul?
ture, and in fact about everything in
which thc people of to day arc inter?
ested. Thi.-- Exposition is to be open?
ed in December next, covers mere
ground, has more exhibits entered than
can be recorded of any other World's
Fair ever attempted.
Aside from tho pecuniary means fur?
nished, thc untiring industry of. its
directors, this marvel et thc nineteenth
century ow es much, of its renown to the
power of tho newspapers. .
