Itiimkam'a Letter to tlio St. Louis Ih-r,uli- Umt.i A* 1 write this leller llio nows goes tlin>u{>li tho land that tlio Villo du Havre li.i ut the bottom of tho sea. Tho awful liiwutar must chill every heart, but it CMuoe homo to jne with doubly dreadful import. I (jo back to the nights when that dismal old boat would of a sudden * tali'1 still and sbiver and shako liko a paralytic, when all Jiands and tho cook ••amperod from stem to stern to learn the locality of tlio last trouble. I loft this tmt a devout fill thankful, but somo- »li.it disappointed woman. I counted on her j oing to tho bottom that trip. The iforflvou* old hulk was fired up with tho bloom of youth and patent stays and now machinery, hut waa old when sho went into tho line. She was an old side* wheel steamer, which had homo tlio name of Napoleon III. (Queer name for an old oiH.) Shooutmjjod tliolawsof navalorch- ilcet un‘, and I always supposed ships, like hridjes, must bo Bymuietrical in sliapo to U‘ Rife. Hero was n ship, originally of ',vod length, to which was attached sixty fret of (jilded saloon. It was tacked or tuck on somo way, nnd was tho entiro width of tlio vessel, with not a single hraco uywhoro to be seen. I’anoled beautiful ly r.ilh white marble slabs, veined with old, at a little distance they had tlio beerful look of grave-stones, and it took teiy little imagination to road first-class obituary notices on all of them. That whole saloon always scorned to mo a sort of porcelain-lined iron dinner-pot. Very lucky for mo it is that tho Villo du Havro didn't meet n floating clothes-polo lost An ;imt. I shouldn’t he on dry land to day thinking sadly of those poor creat ure; who perished on tlio morning of tlio 15th or November. As a prophetess I am a success, and I wean to writo to my paternal progenitor to-night and learn if there is any seventh daughter about me. I predicted n pre diction that that rilo old boat would never i the year ’71 afloat. and lo! she is gone. Sorer again through her gilded saloon will ring the Anglo-French cry, “ Ding dong, goreon, cat leiuonado!” ’There is a terrible lesion to bo learned from the loin of the Villo du Havre, if tho actual facts are ever known, for there was frightful economy shown in its manage ment. and criminal recklessness in ever putting her on the line. When I came over they hid the disabled stato of tho mvw, and took her back to ho repaired in France, with ono entiro fan gone and part of another missing, localise repairs cost so much less there 'ban here. They saved forty dollars on x trip by using a filthy yellow fat oil tho ehinety instead of decent oil, and tho 'tuell of tlio vile compound stewing on 'be engines must have done much to re concile the passengers to shipwreck. A paper here expresses astonishment that »# electric light was not used. Why, the (lit I know of the dastardly economy’of PYenoli line they were negotiating * ; ih a red-bended Gaol, thinking he would _ prove a cheaper substitute for a «i'0(l-|jght than the feeble lanterns in Catch them increasing their er- KttM's one hundred dollars a day for an doctrie light. * scuttled tho ship in half a dozen Pace* with hair-pins and paper-cutters. *'ell the untmggeratod' truth when I S 'hat lying on the sofa in state-room 50 I dug into the punky wood, two three inches away from tho porthole, *>th a paper-knife till I struck tho glaz- ’Ogof iren that formed its outer coat. Dut iron plating was nowhere thicker “on a frying-pan, and a determined utile pilot-boat, with a shingle nail at 'be prow, could have cut through us and Cot out the other side, if it didn’t run “•lo the cook or captain e;i route.

It is a singular fact in the wise and in scrutable economy of nature, (wc haven't the remotest id.-a what the economy of nature is, but it has a kind of profound erudite twang to it, and so we u.-e it.) it i- singular, we -ay, l ut true, that ever since the first Thanksgiving Day was ap pointed, every year on Thanksgiving Eve a widow woman with anywhere from nine to 17 children lias stitched away at a mag nificent silk dr--** in a chc-erh-SR gaxret while her hungry progeny howled for bread. Tho confusion and excitement attendant on the Cuban crisis and the panic almost caused this excellent woman to be overlooked thin year. But the inex orable law which established this woman’s existence and condition cannot foil, and to-day thousands of papers in this Chris- tion land publish this woman’s story without an atom of variation in the num ber of children, condition of wretchedness and timely arrival of tho rich brother from South America. Hut we digress. Follow us, opulent reader, you who have been bred in the lap of luxury, who wear fine linen and pinchbeck studs, smoke imported cigars and owe your washerwoman, nc-ver take anything but fancy drinks, and would rather meet the devil than your Iong- euduring tailor, follow us to the abode of toiling’ poverty. And st»y—bring your sister along. "We toil up six pair of rickety stairs. It grieves us and cuts our wind to drag yon up such a dreary distance, but it can’t be helped. Never since time was, luu the “misery” scene of a Thanks giving story been located nearer the ground than a six-story garret. Some times a wretched family is thrust into damp, slimy cellar, but that is when the husband is alive and a drunkard. Tho widow always lives aloft, and we won' violate the proprieties if it breaks your legs. There ore in this wretched room only ■a-v.-n children. On the pile of rags ii: tho corner is little Jimmy. Ho tried to steal a ride on a freight train, and tho gentlemanly conductor pitched him through a bridge. The fall broke his back, put out his eyes, injured him in ternally, dislocated his right arm, scalp ed him, and ono of his legs had to be cut off. He is a cripple. AVo would prefer leaving him out, but it can’t bo done Ho’a always there. But alas! this Jim my is not liko all the other Jimmies you have read about in the other stories. Alt, no. Ha does not lie on his poor lit tle pallet reading ' tho Testament and singingsnatches of Sunday-school hymns. Not ho. Every time ho feels a twinge lie swears like a pirate, and when his sis ter Ann fell down on him with the baby ho hit the end of her ear off and put a head on her liko a natural chignon. He doosn't take any Sunday-school in hi; does Jimmy. Tlio oldest boy i3 not home. He is good boy, and trios to help his mother, n# lias gono up town to see if ho can get a place at $1,200 a*year, with nothing to do and a boy to help him. His health will not permit him to embark in any mggeder service. His nerves ore effect ed, and ho lias to smoke a brierwood pipe all tlio timo to keep kimself up. If he eome3 in beforo you go away ho will beg all tho tobacco you liavc. Tho second hoy is not hero also. Ilo is up in tho calaboose. Ho is a prig mid will como to bo scragged some day, if ho keeps on. He is in just now for stealing, nnd it almost broke his poor mother's heart to think that lie got caught. Tho five oldest girts are out drummin up tho cold victuals market. They are not proud girls. They will toko anything that is offered them, and a great many things that aro not offered them. This makes them great favorites, and people will not lot them come into tlicir houses for fear they could not bear to part with them again. In the corner by a rickety table sits the poor widow sowing. A tallow candle ex actly two inches long is burning with a fooblo light. Wo don’t know why, but it makes no difference what timo of day or night tlio Thanksgiving story takes note of, tlio short tallew candle is inevitable and immutable. It never burns out, and it always sputters and lmrna feebly. The poor widow is sowing on an elegant dress, imported silk, cut bias in tho back with point npliqtic ruflhies around tho nock, overskirt a la Pompadour, rovers caught up by loopings of tho same, hold in place by sprays of diamonds, underskirt ent train, gored in three scollops with flounces of black lavender, recherche, very full at tlio nock, singlo breasted, side stripe,and a pocket behind. Tho dress does not be long to tho poor widow. Ah, no. Tho P. W. is making it fora young lady up on Mudision street, whose father is worth $0,000,000, although, owing to tho pecn- liar vagaries of tho revenue law and tho convenience of a sworn return, liis taxes are somewhat less than his coachman has to pay. But wo digress. Tho custom of tlio wealthiest inhabitants having tlicir most expensive and finest dresses mode in the poorest and dirtiest houses that can bo found has its origin in Thanksgiving stories, and wo cannot depart from it. This dress must be finished to-night, for tho widow needs the money and tho young lady wonts to wear tho new gown to the German fair. Timo wears on. It is tho hour for supper. Aware of this interesting fact the children, who arc now all present, raiso a dolorous howl for bread. Does tho poor widow sink on her knees, and clasping her hands, sny, “ May Heaven liavo pity on my fatherless children ! I have no bread for them ?” Usually nhe does, but not this one. She says: Brood bo blowed. I haven’t hardly money enough to buy whisky.” And sho straightway sends one of the boys out to get the pint bottle filled. Then she pegs away on that dress, ner sallow cheeks glow with a hectic flush. So does her bulbous nose. At last tho dress is ready and sho rolls it up in a wad, ties it with a piece of rope and sends it homo by ono of the boys. While they are waiting for liis return with the money, one of the chil dren comes in with a lag full of coal, which a kind-hearted neighbor had given him. Tlio generous man was not at home when he gave tho boy the coal, hut he lmd left the coal-houso door unlocked, which was the some thing. The boy who took the dress home comes bock without tho money. The price of tho work was $1.75. These Thanksgiving widows always work mar velously cheap, and the lady had nothing less than a second mortgage or fractional lot 27, block H, ne I sw i sec. 0, n, so by w, original plat of tho old town, now city of Peoria, and the boy couldn’t make the change. Did they all fall on their knees and look to Heaven for help as usual, while the widow’s sobs rent the midnight air and the tears trickled off her rosy nose and tho children wailed in lachry mose chorus ? Ah no! They unanimously accused tho boy of lying and hooking the money—they went for him in wrathful chorus and tousled him like an old shoe. They put various heads on him, the table is upset, the bottle broken, yells and howls mar the peaceful stillness of Thanksgiving Eve, the two-inch tallow candle flares wildly in the murky air, tlio broken victuals fly like hail stones—all is confusion, tumultuous horror broods around and starvation stares the wretched iamily in the face when—heavy steps as cend the rickety stairs, a smell of tar is heard in the distance, a hearty voice bat ters at the craxy door. “Avast! Shiver my tarry top lights! Stop my grog if this isn't the squalliest tack I ever lay to on. Ahoy, there! Be lay! Show a fight alongside till I come to anchor and board yc. Hello, ship mates, what cheer ?” And he strode into the atom. Oh Heaven, can it be ? It isn’t! It is ! It isn’t! It is! Ohyes. ’tis ! 'tishe! It is— it is the long lost sailor brother !

FAIRBANKS & 00 And have just opened a large assortment of MANUFACTURED BY Langdale’s Chemical Manure Company (LIMITED.) NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, ENGLAND. Has tho following Powerful Kecommendations for Planters It is a genuine English made Manure, the only ono in the market, and manu factured by a company having a capital of $1,250,000, which seUs 40,000 tons annu ally, and has the most oxtensivo works of the kind in Great Britain, which have been in operation 24 years. Tho Langdalo, therefore, has a good pedigree and is no experiment. It contains a larger proportion of chemical elements suited for tho promotion of vegetable life, and especially of cotton, than any other fertilizer offered in tho South. It is the best and safest Cotton Manure in tho market. The analysis given with tho Manure when sold wiU be guaranteed. There shall be no mistake about the genuineness of tho article, nor the good faith of the vendors. It is the cheapest Manure offered, as it contains nothing but what is of use in becoming plant-food, or by chemical action on the soil, producing tho same. The test of cheapness is not tho price, but the actual worth of tho article purchased. Low-priced Manure cannot contain efficient quantities of pure and valuable chemi cals, which can nlono give worth to a fertilizer, and bring satisfactory results. The Langdalo is as low in price as is consistent with tho use of tho best ingredients, nnd a fair commercial profit on its cost. Tho employment of powerful machinery in mixing and pulverizing tho ingre dients prepares every particle for service, and prevents trouble in using. Tho Lang- daleis unequalled in this respect, and impresses every ono who secs it os a perfectly manipulated Manure. In its composition and preparation it is the result of careful scientific research and experiment, confirmed by practical application for a quarter of a century. It will ho maintained at its present high standard, and is thus what planters have long wanted - a thoroughly reliable and safe Manure. THE MODEL MANURE AND PLANTER’S FRIEND.
