GLENBURNIE. iiy Ai.nmnniAYON. .“Do you suppose site will come to-.lay V” askeri Beatrix Browne. “Of course she will cotne,” said Mr. Ilerschcl Hubert Browne. “Why shouhln’t she?” “Oh, how can I tell?” cried im patient Beatrix. “The train must have been in lung ago. And oh me! here is the baroueh eomin hack without her.” Mr. ilersfhul Hilbert Browne was a handcome, f.ishiotialily dress ed young man, witii a big diamond on Ills liltte finger antl-a cotivon tioaai smirk on his handsome eoun tenance. Miss Beatrix, his sister, was a artificial damsel, costumed alter tlie latest Baris plate, and their mother, Mrs. Bethune Browne, was a stylish widow, who kept up a great deal of appearance on very littl • sol* I f itiod-i'ion. “.I lic.scmi and Trix can only Contrive to n iko good matclies we shall ride triumphantly over all these difficulties,” sai l she, com placently f inning herself wiih a jeweled S| apish fun. Ho she had rente 1 “U.j louruie,” a nrettysum- ita-r residence, engaged a first- class French cook, given a most liberal order to tlie mlliner and dross maker, and issued invitations to a number of friends to pass the summer with her. “The only mistake we made,” said Mrs. Browne, ‘was in couiii g to a place where my girlhood was spent. It isn’t pleasant to have Stout old farmers stopping one to ask if I succeeded in that sciiool- te.ichiog venture, nr that specula tion in taking hoarders, or to he told by red-faced old women that 1 hold my years wonderfully well.’ ” Bui Mr.-. Bethune Browne and her s m and daughter were doomed to loneliness that afternoon. Mi;* Harper, the New York heiress, had not come, as she was expected, by thy alternoon train; and as Ihe Bethune Brownes were not people who ever took any es pecial pains to entertain cadi oth er Ihe evening(iid not pass away in unmitigated bliss. Miss Harper, however, had come. The only mistake she h»d commit- tod was in leaving the train at Pino Biufl' station instead of Pine Hill station. But how was she, a born New Yorker, whose anteced ents were only of Fifth avenue and Twenty third street, to diecimi- nate between these puzzling simi- • lari ties? She looked around at the pine thickets; she listened with a vague misgiving to the rush of tlie pebbly brook in the copse; she glanced ap pealingly at the ticket agent, who was rolling some barrels of lime along the platform toward the freight room. “Is there no one here to meet me?” she asked. “Iam Miss Har per, from New York.” The ticket agent looked up at the sky,down at tiie daisies, and then at the forlorn stranger. “I don’t see no one,” said he. “I am to go to tho Brownes,” said the. “The Brownes, eh ?” said the agent. “Yes,” she said, eagerly, “the Brown s.” “They don’t live such a piece up the road,” said the agent, still con sidering an especial daisy bud, whose soft, white fringe - as just opening to the sunshine. “I guefs likely you might walk. Anyhow, there ain’t no oiher way to go.” Miss Harper’s heart beat exult antly. “Up which road ?” said she. “That thar,” and the agent nod- ed toward the distant mountain side. “Ab,” said Miss Harper, “i* it very lonely?” “Blass you. no,” said the agent. “There’s as many as three houses within the mile,not conntin’the saw mill.” “Ana I can leave my trunk here to be sent for?” —-<Oh, yes.” said the agent. So Melicent Harper walked French boots, Laris hat, tiny mash- room parasol and all. It was a little cottage; the very poetic, picturesque cottage of her •irlhood’s dreams, with caves reaching nearly to the ground, wil dernesses of woodbine, morning me?” The gentleman looked puzzled. “No,” he said. “Then you never got my letter!’’ “Never,” said the enchanted prince; “I wrote to Miss Browne.” “Did you?” with some surprise. “How provoking?” said Melicent, reddening and biting her ripe red cherry of a lip. “But I hope you are glad to see me ?” "Yes, indeed, we are,” said Har ry Browne, instinctively polite, as lie opened the door wide to ad roit the fairstranger. “Do come in.” “Marian,” to some one beyond, “here’s Miss Harper, from New York, come to see you. She wrote us from New York, but, of course, the letter never reached us!” Marian, a slim, darke-yed Diana, looked quite as bewildered as her brother ligd previously done. “You are welcome,” she said, ‘‘i’lease come up to my room and take <>!f your things.” It was the tiniest of little rooms. In fact, the rot:age itself looked to .viol.cent’- metropolitan eyes as it you wtr« viewing it through the little end of an opera glass. But it was "O neat, -o dainty, so flower- scented and pure. Melicent was a little bewildered still. Glenburnie, as described by Beatrix Browne, was a modern castle. And why did this handsome Harry persist in calling his sister “Marain ?” Marian herself was also puzzled until it occurred to her mind, “all of a sudden,” that this Miss Harper mu t have been sent to her assis- an. e by old Mrs. Telliff, who knew all sorts of nice girls in need, and woo wa ( also acquainted with the fact of their mother’s illness. “Mrs. Telliff is always thoughtful,’! she pondered; “but *o dreadfully brusque and abrupt sometimes.” Do you know how to take care of sick people, Miss Harper?” she asked, as she was shaking out the snowy muslin folds of the curtains in I lie “best room.” Not particularly,”confessed Mel icent, “Why?” “Oh, because mamma is just re covering from rheumatic fever,” said Marian, “and it would be so nice if y-iu could help us nurse her.” •‘M en I will help you,” said Meli- cenl, with a kiss. “Harry is ever so useful,” said Marian. “He is the dearest feilow in the world. But he can’t do every thing. He is do>vu stairs now broil ing the chickens for dinner. He learned to cook when lie was camp ing out. And mamma can’t drink any ceffee but that which he makes.” Melicent’s eyes sparkled. “He must lie the best of brothers,” said she. “He is,” cried enthusiastic Marian. Mrs. Brown, the sweetest of pale individuals, received the visitor with something of that puzzled air which Melicent found so hard to understand. And there was a cot- tage piano, a banjo, some new mu sic and a wilderness of wild flowers; and the young peoplo promised to show Melicent a cascade up tie glen, and a haunted dell still t'urtlu r on. “They are so nice,” thought Meli- eent that night when she went to bed in the little niu-iin-curtaim d room. “Not at all what I expects d to see, from Aunt Joseph’- descrip tion. And Harry is-o unselfish and tender with his mother—and Mari an is so s\vee f and affectionate I am sure I could l>e happy Lore lor a year.” Consequently, he next day, when the grand earring rattled down the road, and Mi-s Beatrix Browne came to claim the waif and stray, Melicent Harper was more surprise 1 than pleased. “Have I come to the wrong place?”said -he. “Oh, they have been so good to me; The wrong Browns? No; that can not possi bly be. They are rigid, right in everything. But J shall not go away until Mrs. Brown is well enough to he about the house.” And Melicent adhered resolutely to tiffs determination, in spite of 'Mix's frowns and Herschel Hu. bert’sblandishments. ShAemained nearly all summer at the cottage, and spent only on® little week at Glenburnie. “But one can accomplish a good deal in a week,” said Mrs. Bethune Browne, Hppefuliy. “And, of •ourse.V —Jbrnie must be like paradise to her, after those horrid lit lc cramped-tip rooms and ever lasting pine forests.” i gratulation and withdrew from the <*ccne as hastily as pos-ible. ! “Its all a comedy, it seems,” he sajii, almost savagely, to his mother. “Here is -our ’season wasted, our purse empty, our tradesmen clam orous; and Hurry Brown, down at the cottagp, has gained the prize!” And all that Mrs. Bethune Browne could say was this: “It’s very strange! Very strange, indeed!” The Secretary of the Navy, in reply to the resolution of Mr. Bou- telle, adopted January, transmit ted to the House a letter from Commodore Truxton, commandant of the Norfolk navy yard, in which he says: “In reply to yoar letter transmitting to me the resolution passed by the House -of Represen tatives, asking if certain allegations were true in reference to the admin istration at the navy yard, of which I am commandant, has been re ceived. In answer to the first statement, I respectfully say there never were any honorable inscrip tions upon any cannon captured by he States, and placed in this yard, obliterated by tny order. In fact, up such obliteration at any time has taken*place. Exposure from wi-Hther and time had somewhat obliterated the inscriptions placed there, but these were renewed by uiy orders last June and are now plain. Then follows a list ef the guns and the inscriptions on them. Second. The dry dock was never destroyed. It was partially dam aged by tho United Bint.*- forces when they evacuated the yard in 1861, and also by the Confederates when they evacuated the yard in 1862, hue in neither case did the damage exceed the destruction of the caisson and adjacent build ings.” Commodore Truxton then men tions that n hoard of officers was selected by Secretary Whitney to supervise and conduct an examina tion ef candidates for the position made vacant by the removal oi Lyons—that full notice of examina tion was given, and six mechanics attended and were examined. The buard reported Thomas B. Carr, of Boston, as the best man for the place, and he wa* appointed to the position of master machinist by the Secretary of the Navy. The Com modore continues: “The efficiency and superior work now turned out of that shop justifies the change.” Georgia Farm Mortgages. The Atlanta "Capito{ mtym Loan agents have been for a number of years scattering mortgages upon onr Georgia farms. There are probably a miiiion and a half dollars of such mortgages in sums of from $500 to $3,000. Num bers of the borrowers have failed to meet their indebtedness and toe lands are being sold. Some of our| best lawyers ere making a hand ! some thing of it in foreclosing these | claims The farmer first paid front 30 to 50 percent, for supplies and guano advances. He thought it a move forward to borrow money for three to five years’ time, mortgages $3 of and for ft of Joan, paying 10 per cent of commission in Jump to the agent and S per cent interest a year. For instance on a $3,000 loan he gave a mortgage on a $9,0011 farm. His commission, 16 per cent, was $48'.', which left him only $2,520 caah. His iiflerest of 8 per cent on $3,000 is $240 a year or $J,200 for the 5 years. His account stands at the end of the 5 years.- Whole loan due $3,000 Commission gone 480 Yearly interest 5 years 1,200 HUMOROUS.

It s reckoned, however, that th® tak ings of northern spinners have been from Glenburnie | 300,lH)d bales more, since Beptembei 1st., than for the same period last year. This would seem to indicat* a healthier position of cotton man ufacturing. but it has been comput ed by authorities that, owing lo stoppages and sitikes, th® actual consumption has been no greater than last year, in which ease the in creased shipments to the mills de note a large stock on hand at the factories. The home consumption of the northern mills last year was estimated at 1,437,000 bales, and al ready this amount has reached within 200,000 bales, which leaves a small margin for much of a busi ness during the remaining six mouths of the year. The Mura/ New-Yorker is to be commended as peculiarly the farm e.s’ triend. It is the only agricul tural journal which has experi mental and trial grounds.

He pa\ T s commission $480, which lie gets no use of. and pays 8 per cent interest on it for the 5 years, being $3810 a year and $!W2 for the 5 years. Now let us see wt-at the $!),0ii0 farm has to do in 5 years. Besides supporting its master, hie family and hands, it has to produce a sur plus of$4,6S0 in the ' years. This is a total of over 50 per cent lor the whole 5 years, or over JO per cent a year. A business that nets 6 per cent is a good one—a magnificent one. But this farmer has to net over 10 per cent straight along for 5 years, good or bad season, rust or no rust, drouth or flood, as nis fundamental expense, and live out side Of that, or at tiie end of five years be unable to meet bis moit- age. It can’t be done as a rule. It can only be done as a rare exception. The only policy for the farm- «r is to not borrow, but live and work hard, economize, diversify harvest, make home-mad® manures, raise provisions and have his cotton as a surplus.

It is fully as healthy as any; more vigorous and productive thau the Wilson and of very much better flavor. While the Jewell will grow well and pre- due® lair crops ot berries on the lightest and poorest lands, it will stand any amount of manuring, and grow and produce fruit in pro portion to the richness of the round. We, last Summer, picked from a single plant of Jewell, which had been planted in the August previous, a full quart box of line berries, and left on the vine 48, havingevery)promise of being full- sized, marketable berries when ripe. The Jewell produces berries of a uniform size and larger than any berries of our acquaintance will average. The color is bright and inviting.
