PREftlBKNT POMPS WIDOW.
A Vlalt u On* «r Ik* Mather* >» the
Ratiw.
Nuhvllle I attar Ut Chicago InUr-Oo*a».
On one of the coxy, shady streets of
Nsshville, the Boston of the south, in
an old-fashioned mansion of red brink,
with wide, deep windows, and a mam
moth-pillared piaasa jutting out liko
the bold forehead of the famous man
that once lived there, Is the house of
Mrs. James Knox Folk, widow of tho
tenth president of the United Htetee—
one of the mothers of the nation. A
slender, graceful old lady, with a snow-
white nockerohief and folds of onrls
that lay pat on eaoh side of her brow.
Hhels seventy-six years old, bnt her
figure is as straight, her step as qniek
and her eyes as bright as the oyes of a
girl; aotivo in every benevolent scheme,
generous to an extreme, hospitable no-
oording to the tradition* of Kentucky
hospitality, and aa oonrtly aa a qnosn.
In Nashville, a few days ago, the honre
was pointed out to me, and a descrip
tion of the old lady given, with the
remark that she liked to reoeive stran
gers. Ho I thought I would pay my
reapeots to tho widow of a president,
and about noonday entered tho gate of
"the Polk Place.’’ and went np tho
long gravel walk that loads to tho
honso. The yard ia laid out in the old-
fashioned style, with flower-beds in dif
ferent designs, borders of box and
shrubs of different sorts placed at
roathematioal intervals. An old-fash
ioned brass knooker, like the handle of
a ooflln, burnished as bright aaa mirror,
asked on trance for me, and a l>ent,
rickety old negro woman answered the
summons.
" is Mrs. Polk at homo ? ’’
" Yos, sah; will yon atop in, ash ;
Missus Polk is at home, sab, bnt was
just gwino out, aah, and she’s boun’ to
go 'bont this time. Tako a chair, aah."
Hhe led me into an old-fashioned par
lor, with shells of all aorta on the man
tel, and ohinix curtains with large
flowery figures hung before the win
dows. Ou the walla wero portraits of
men in wigs and military uniforms of
the old regime, and women with high
powdered hair and mffloe, with a tow an
tique prints and half-fadod landscapes.
The furniture was heavy mahogony,
and exquisitely oaived, and the carpet,
half-ooverod by oanvas, was a relio of
anoiont oleganoe. I was ablo only to
glanoe at things for a moment after the
servant left. Mrs. Polk entered, and,
extending her hand cordially, aaid :
" I soo yon are a stranger, sir ; bnt
I am happy to soo yon, novortholoss.
Pooplo call overy day to see me," said
sho, laughing, " to soo how a woman
lives that lived in the While nouse onoo,
and I value the attention vory highly."
I thanked hor, and attempted to ex*
C lain and apologise for my intrusion,
nt ahe tapped hor hand impatiently
with hor parasol, and said :
"Tho apology in on my part, sir. for
I mnnt beg you to oxonno mo. I havo
an appointment at thin hour it is unite
imperative I should moot, or Iwonld bo
pleosod to entertain yon. I pray y<
will oxouso mo. and mako yonrsolf nn

gronnds as if I wore boro. My servants
will show yon what people generally
wish to seo. They are accustomed to
seoing strangers, sir ; ha I lit! quiteao
oustomed to it, I assure you.”
* It was something I had read about,
this graooful, old-fashioned oourtesy,
but I never saw bofore n real illustra
tion of tho manners of tho republican
oonrt. and aa I esoortod tho nimble old
lady to her oarriago, she ohnttcrod away
as cordially as if she was my grand
mother, and insisted upon my oalliug
again. Her riding dross was of the
shiny silken material that wno sees at
old folks' oonoorts; black, and ont long-
waiated, with a plain belt of oorded rib*
bon. At her nook was a white linen
'korohiof, folded with artistlo precision,
and fastened with a large brooch, which
oontainod a pioture of hor husband.
Hor shawl was of blaok looe, foldod in
the old-fashioned way. and on her hands
wore "mitta"—or whatever they oall
thoao silk, knit affairs that lmvun't auv
fingers. As the carriage drove away I
turned baok into tho yard, aud went to
the tomb of tho presidont, which stands
midway botweou the street and houso,
at tho loft of tho walk. It 1b a plain,
rectangular saroophagus, about sixteen
foot in noiglit, of smooth limostono. aud
inolosing a low sqnaro monumout of tho

to romovo it to tho grounds of tho state-

On tho third aide, looking toward tho

wheat. There foots evidently are those
made use of by tho " boars." On tho
other hand, the high prioos of "spot"
and "future” oorn mako it more profit
able for farmers lo ship the oorn instead
of feeding it, wherever they are near a
railroad. This will have a tendonoy to
rush poor, light hogs to market early
and givo tho opening of tho packing
reason tho appearanoe of a largo orop,
which will ho fallacious. Tho recent
heavy reoeipts of hogs at Chicago givo
ovldonoe of this tendonoy already.
There is stress also laid upon tho faot
that Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska
shipped a largo number of hogs daring
the Hnmmer and fall on aooount of the
grasshopper plagne. This is trne ; bnt
by oareful inspection of western market
reports, it appears that thoso shipments
wore largely of stock hogs, whioh did
not go to market, bnt into Illinois and
Iowa to food, where they now are. wait
ing to ooroe forward. In this lino of
arotimont, the absonceof oily surplus of
old orop loft over of any staple of hog
products is brought forward as evidenoe
of an early snd pretty aotivo export do

tho now oampaign of tho speonlators
and <1 osiers in provisions will open, with
tho theory of a short orop moro gener

less influence the market at tho opening
of the season ; but whethor tho argu
ments nro so muoh on tho " bull" stdo
as to warrant any spoonlation upon them

bility, will only be answered Into in tho
reason. The nigh priocs of hogs aro
oertnin to bring out all that are fit for
market, unless oorn gors lower, oom-
polling tho fsrmors to food it. The fair
supply of other kinds of food than oorn
and low prioo of wheat, will all hnvo an
inflnonoo against prioos, and may rend
enough to market oarly to over-burdon
holders of stock ; whife, from tho above
frets, the later arrivals may not provo
to be so poor as might othorwiso lie ox-
pooled. The quality of the oorn, also,
is so muoh better than usual, that iu
sections away from railroads, where it
will be largoly fed, tho hogs will be fat,

A Mexican (Irotto.
Among the recent discoveries of an
cient ruins in Moxioo is that of an arti
ficially executed grotto, fifteen miles
from Tanoitaro, in tho atato of Miohoa-
oan. Tho grotto is represented to be of
immense doptli and vast extent; the re
mains of walls nnd arched ooiridors are
still to be seen, and many onrions spe
oimens of tho handiwork of an uuknown
rnoo has been brought from this ;subter-
ranoan palaoe. Two oitixens of i
neighboring village reoontly penetrated
into tho cavernous depth of tho grotto
and lost their way. Throe days and
nights woro spout iu wandering through
tho labyriathino passages of this won
derful place before they found an out
let from their strango imprisonment.
Hnbsoquontto this competent persons
inado a moro thorough examination of
tho grotto, wlion tho faot that at aomo

Cotton Cloth for llot-Beds.
J. B. Boot, n snooossfnl market-gar

he uses cotton cloth at n oont of ono-
eighth that of gloss for more than throe-
fourths of his hot-beds ; nnd although
not so good for tho earliost bods, is pre
ferred for all later ones. It is prepared
by making tho oloth covers a few inches
wider and longer than tho frame, hem

rings fifteen inohoa apart around tho
bordor, stoutly sowed ou ; and by book
ing ovor nails, tho oloth is drawn air

rosin nro heated, dissolved and thor
oughly mixed in an iron kottlo, nnd ono
ooat applied while hot to tho upper sido
of the oloth. This renders it tight and
nearly transparent.
Chicken Cholera.
Ohiokon cholera is caused by soveral
things. Damp, unclean quarters, im
pure water or a scarcity of water, indi

black pepper, sevoral times a day, with
boiled sweet milk and bread for feed,
nud olenu water, in whioh a little cop
peras has been dissolved, for drink.
Prevention consists in oIobo attention to
tho welfare of the fowls, nnd the ot'ea-
