Rowell, the furniture dealer on Michigan avenue, set S overhauling a desk filled with old which had been accumu utine on his hands for several years, until [.could scarcely say where or how he the most of them. After throwing y * bushel or more of the documents, lie came upon H P”P er seall, d and tied with red tape. He could not remember harms seen it before and was amazed •hen he broke the seals and read : “Last will and testament of Israel Whitworth.” Ge ting further down lie tound that the M per was nine years old, and that the will L e to “ Margaret Davis, my sister, or her children, the Gordon farm, situate two undone half miles from St. Joseph, Mo., toeetber with all live stock and farming insils; further the sum of $5,000 in bask in St. Joseph, (unless I shall have rillidrawn it,) my gold watch, my house hold furniture, and one half of what my house may bring gt private sale. So read the will so far as her sister ana her kin were concerned, and then W hit worth made bequest to several other rela tives. The will was dated “Detroit, Au gust 10, 1863.” It occurred to Mr Rowell that the will might be of some account to oiii6 one, and be wrote to Mrs. Davis, di recting the letter to St. Joseph, Mo. In about two weeks he received a reply from her, dated at Weston, same State, his let ter having been forwarded to that place. She stated that her brother had been dead nearly eight years, and that she never had known of a will. The property had been divided among four near relatives of the deceased, or should have beeu, but three of them had cheated her out of most ot what fell to her in dividing up. She fur ther stated that her brother had a cousin in Detroit years ago, and that lie was in this city on a visit, about the . dale ot the will. The cousin’s name was signed as oueofthe witnesses, and a Mr. Johnson, now in Cincinnati, was the other witness. Howell sent on the will, and Friday last lie received a grateful letter from the wo man, who said that the will had beeu ad mitted to probate there, the witnesses call ed on, and that she had been put in pos session of nearly $20,000 through his find ing the will. She cautioned him to look nut for an express package, and will prob ably send something handsome. The puz zling thing of the whole is that Rowell can’t tell when or where he got the will, nor imagine how the deceased came to leave it where it would fall into the hands of a stranger. Mr. Whitworth might have lost it, or left it where he could not find it, aud finally concluded that it was destioy ed, and for reasons satisfactoiy to himself did not make another will. The case is a curious one, but Rowell has the letters to prove that it is a true one.— from the De troit Free Press. A Young Lndy Farmer. AN ILLINOIS GIRL’S SUCCESS AS A KAU mkr_from: the seminary to me CORNFIELD. We lately had the pleasure of “inter viewing” a Miss A., of Illinois, who, for some years past, has been engaged in carrying on a farm of one hundred and twenty acres. Her father died, leaving a vyidow and, we believe, two daughters and a boy, of whom Miss A. was the eldest, and the bey a lad of ten or a dozen years old. She found the health of her mother, who was eudeavoring to manage the farm with hired help, failing, and concluding that (he would rather keep her mother than get an education, she left the seminary in 1863 and commenced farming. The farm at that time consisted of eighty acres of the home farm, about half of which was in cultivation ; and at a little distance were forty acres more, all in cultivation. 'I lie home farm had a pretty good house, but the barn had recently been burned, and the fences were not good. Twelve acres had been planted in apples of good varie ties. She had one horse, and got the loan of another from a friend, who also aids *nd is aided in turn by lending imple ments, etc. She has now a good team of her own raising, besides a horse that does duty in the market wagon So she went to work, with the aid of her little brother, and, to some extent, of her mother and sister, who took charge of the housekeeping. She learned to do uearly all kinds of work. She does not plow much, but she can do it. She took out fifty to one hundred stumps of trees one year with a spade, an ax, and, at the same time, assisting her brother who was drilling wheat. She bound and shocked wheat, and can drive a team well. She Can use an ax pretty well; formerly she could chop better than her brother, but now he chops as well as she can herself, and she does less of it. She wears a gymnastic suit when at home and at work, a broad brimmed hat, gloves, and boots made to order. She wishes to look as well as other girls, and thus protects herself from the exposure resulting from out-door labor. She likes the open-air life aud out door work, and is healthy and strong. Most of the home farm is cultivated in com. though she has eight acres in grass, nd twelve in orchard. She raised twenty three acres of winter wheat in 1872. It was a fine crop, but she lost from three to five acres from the failure of the man she had engaged to cut it in time. Even then, with scarce and inefficient labor, by that coble class of men that are always willing to take advantage of those who cannot help themselves, it costs IfeV SBO to liar vest aud thresh the wheat. Yet she four hundred and fifty bushels'of wheat, weighing sixty-two pounds to the bushel. The young orchard bore a good deal of fruit in 1872, and she sold one hundred barrels of summer apples, aud has one hundred and fifty bushels of apples now iu the cellar. Bhe took most of the apples to market herself, selling some of them as low as seventy five cents per barrel, and some as high as one dollar.— Prairie Far mer. Victoria and Eugenie. ENGLAND 8 IJUKKN AT CIIISLEHURBT. [Eroin the London Daily Telegraph, Feb. 21.. Yesterday the Queen, accompanied by the Princess Beatrice, and attended by La dy Churchill and Col. Ashley Maude,pud a visit to the Empress Eugeuie, at Chisel hurst. The Queen has, it is known, long contemplated a personal expression of con dolence with the Empress in her sorrow ; and the feeling which her Majesty has been desirous of placing on record, with respect to her faithful ally, the Emperor Napoleon 111., has been also indicated by the offering which she has made of a tomb to be placed within a chapel which the Empress is about to raise for the reception of the Imperial remains. Her Majesty, the Princess Beatrice, and suite left Windsor Castle yesterday morn ing shortly after ten o'clock, and driving to the station of the Soul western Railway Company, entered the special train which was to convey them to Chiselhurst. Mr. Cockburn had charge ot the train, which consisted of two iovhl saloons and other carriages. Chiselhurst Station was reached by 11:20, aud on the platform were Lord and Lady Sidney, whose residene is in the neighborhood. By them Her Majesty was received on alighting, and was conducted to one of the State carriages, which hud been sent down from London. The car riage, drawn by four horses, and preceded by outriders, was driven at once to to the little church of St. Mary, scarcely more than half a mile beyond Camden place. There are few, if any persons who know, from written or spoken description what kind of quiet rustic spot it is in which the eofiiuof the Emperor Napoleon rests for a time. The little ivy colored side chapel, nestling between the church wall aud the house of the cure, Father Goddarc has been visited by tens of thousands There is a grated opening from this place of Imperial sepulture to the interior of the church—itself a building so small that it would scarcely be noticed were it in turn attached to some stately cathedral. En tering the now historical church of Bt. Mary, in lanes by Chiselhurst Common, the Queen remained some time by the Em peror’s tomb. The wreaths are there which had been heaped in a sad profusion when the coffin was first carried in the diminutive chapel. Among those wreaths the Queen noticed the 11101‘uary tributes which she herself,her sous,and her daugh ters had sent. Leaving the tomb after a while, Her Majesty was led by Mr. God dard, the priest, to au outer site very near the church, where is to be erected by the Empress, and dedicated to the Virgin, that little chapel within which will be placed the tomb of Scotch Granite, offered by the Queen. This newly-planned sarcophagus which is already in course of construction will resemble iu form and fashion that which holds the remains of the Duchess of Kent, Having surveyed the ground of the intended chapel, Her Majesty quitted the small, neatly kept cemetery of St. Mary's Church, and re entering the car riage, was conveyed to Camden-place. On the steps of the entrance porch the Queen was received by the Empress and son. That the meeting was one. indeed, of a most sympathetic kind may well be imagined. Their Majesties retired together to tire private apartments of the Empress while the Prince Napoleon, the Princess Beatrice, and the Princess Murat remained in the salon de reception. The time passed by the Queen and Empress in private con versation was nearly an hour ; and shortly before tbe departure of her Majesty, a few of those devoted followers of the Empe ror, who had borne him company in bis exile, both in Germany aud in England, were presented. Prominent among those faithful adherents of a fallen dynasty were the Due de Bassifno formerly Grand Cliain belain of the Empire ; the Comte Devil liers, First Equerry ; the Comte Clary, Aide de Camp ; 31. Francescliiui Pietri, Private Secretary ; Dr. Conneau and his son, Dr. CorvDart ; and 31. Filon, the Prince’s tutor. The ladies presented to the Queen were the Princess 3lurat the Duchesse de Montero, Mmc. Lebretou- Bourbaki, and Mile. Larminat. Haviug taken au affectionate leave of the Empress and tbe Prince Napoleon, Her Majesty drove back to Cbisleburst Station, and returned to Windsor by tbe way of Newcross, London Bridge, Waterloo, and Staines, terminating the railway journey at about 1 1-2 o’clock. Her 31ajesty and tbe Princess Beatrice then drove to the C-stle. Fsiro’s Successors. The New Game ok Push as Played in San Francisco From the San Francisco Post.) Since the partial suppression of faro, other games of change have increased to such au extent that now nearly every other saloon boasts its poker, seven-up, aud push game. Almost every body is familiar with the former games, but the latter is a recent invention, which had its birth on the city front, where it is played to an alarming extent, hundreds of dollars night ly changing hands at the game. The manner of playing is peculiarly simple, and can be readily understood by even those who have little or no knowledge of cards. Yet this simple game, which is being so rapidly popularized because of its simplicity, is a banking game, and comes MACON, OA., SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1873. withjn the meaning ol the students that defines what constitutes such games. - The mode of playing the game is thiss A number of men teat themselves arouiW a table with a pack of cards, one of whom deals. Each man places the amount of money lie desires to bet in the center of the table. The cards, after being dealt are pm al around, and each player including the dealer, selects one, which, is burned up and placed on the table in front of him. Ths dealer selects his card last, aud places it face upward on the table. If hia card is higher than any of the rest they each pay him the amount of money they bet. Should any or all of the players hold a higher card than the dealer, he pays over the necessary amount. The next man than becomes the dealer, and so on at in finitum, each man iu turn becoming a dealer, aud at the same time banker. Thus each party who plays at the game is liable under the law as a principal, not as a participant. PHEMIXTM IjIST —or tub— Bibb Cos. Agricultural Society Fair .irm: ini ana aotii, i*?a.
