3mmra£ ^degrcyfr nnit 3-fegtttflcr FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1SS0. . —Among tile paid bills and other docu ments received by a St. Louis man from his fifteen-year-old daughter, who was away at school, was a marriage certificate. That was his first news of her nuptials. —Miss Beatrice Ord, the eldest daugh ter of Gen. Ord, is said to be engaged to marry Gen. Travino, of the Mexican army. The ceremony will take place at Galves ton, shortly. —A Leicestershire (England) farmer Writes to the Mark Lane Express: ‘‘Hun dreds of fanners have lost the whole of their flocks of sheep. It has been one of the most disastrous seasons (for sheep) ever experienced.” —Three blind girls went out for a walk, in St. Louis. They were familiar with the street, and made their way with ready confidence; but they knew nothing of a deep excavation lately made, and so walked into it. One was killed, and the others badly hurt. —A ferocious bulldog broke his chain at ■Wheeling, Va., and attacked a very old woman. She made all the defense she could, but he threw her down, bit her with savage fury, and finally killed her. Her son, maddened by the sight, chopped the brute to pieces. —With William Black, the novelist, the writing of stories is a business. He is shrewd, practical and quick. He has a second wife. At Brighton he has a beau tiful house, which overlooks the ocean. He makes about $25,000 a year from his writings. He does not depend upon a publisher for a percentage; he gives one to a publisher. —The encharistic candles lighted on the altar of Bishop Seymour’s cathedral in Springfield, Ill., last Sunday, threaten to kindle a small conflagration in the Epis copal church of the West. Bishop Rob ertson, ol St. Louis, can find no sufficient Warrant for the alleged innovation, and has no hesitancy in saying so. ’ Kentucky Repudiates Tilden. From Kentucky private intelligence is to the effect that a very strong spirit of re sentment has sprung up among prominent Democrats against what is alleged to be the evident hope of the Tilden-Watterson Wing to bulldoze the Democracy of Ken tucky into sending a Tilden delegation to Cincinnati. As a result of this it is said Kentucky will send a strong anti-Tilden delegation. —It is announced that Prof. Taylor, of the agricultural department, has discov ered that cotton seed treated with sulphu ric acid will come up five or six days ear lier than in its natural state. If the same treatment will obtain the same results on a larger scale the discovery will be one of great importance to Southern planters, as it will give them a start of nearly a week in raising their crop, and thus enable them in many cases to avoid the frosts. It is believed that the germination of other seeds can be quickened by similar means. Will Render an Account op ms Stewardship to the People.—It is an nounced that General Gordon will address the people of Rome on Tuesday, June 1st, and by invitation will speak also at other points in the State, which will be duly advertised. His constituents will be pleased to bear from the man with whom many of them often marched to the can non’s mouth, and afterwards delighted to honor. Moreover they will believe every statement that he makes based upon his own personal knowledge. The name of Gordon is but for a synonym for chivalry and honor. —The Boston Transcript says the con tingency upon which alone Gen. Grant can be induced to deny himself the retire ment and rest which he so longs for ap pears to be the event of his getting less than a majority of the 750 vetes of the national convention. The overwhelming, resistless call to the post of duty again, which alone would suffice to change his determination to withdraw from public life, would evidently be composed of just 370 votes, counting the votes of the gagged States—if the gags hold—and all as part of the people’s cry to him to be saved. —It is a curious fact not generally known that at a certain point on the Up per Columbia, close to the water’s edge, the fine sand is continuallly traveling up stream in one eternal processsion. Talk of the great army of Xerxes on the march —what was that to the myriad battalions that pace the marge of the mighty river? In comparison with these tiny travelers what are the “leaves of the forest when summer is green ?” This sand is being continually washed ashore, and as the water falls away with the dearth of the season, it dries, is taken dp by the winds, carried back up stream, is blown into the water and makes another voyage; and so the work of transportation back and forth, by laud and by sea; goes on forever and ever. lost Power and Motion. In the mechanical world waste power and lost motion arc the belenoir of en ginery; but in the world of oratory and elocution the idea seems to be reversed. Go into a courtroom where an advocate is addressing a judge and twelve jurymen * in a. petty larceny case, or even a judge alone upon some motion, and he is screaming loud enough to be heard half a mile. The advocate exhausts his strength and his voice in a shoit time in making so much noise that few can hear him—f. e., to wnder- sland him. It is not often given to a man to hollo distinctly. It is a great art, to be attained by long practice, which not one in five thousand devotes to it. The consequence is that hearers must listen with a painful intentness or lose all the ideas expressed; but as the speaker goes on with increasing hoarseness and huski ness the best efforts to hear are generally unavailing. The speech is killed by the noise of It. Go into a church, and you often meet with the same difficulty. Our church au diences generally run from forty to six hundred—are seldom larger—but the preacher expends the same amount of vocal Yolnme on them, that he would on an outr door discourse to a congregation of ten thonsand—that is to say, he expends his entire capital, whether speaking to twenty or twenty thousand—whether discoursing in a 20x30 cliapql or in a great cathedral. All the time he is preaching and feels the increasing soreness of his vocal organs, ha is thinking to himself, “I wish it was n jt the fashion to hollo so in the pulpit; but if I don’t scream the people will never think I am in earnest. They will not con sider me as preaching.'" And all the time he is preaching the hearers are saying to themselves, “I wish these preachers would not consider it necessary to scream so loud. If they would only discourse in moderate tones, it would be so pleasant. Then I could hear and understand them. But now I lose every sentence which he thinks to emphasize by a scream, and while I am puzzling myself to think wbat he said, he has gone on, and the track is lost.” As the sermon progresses to the perora tion, it becomes more husky and indis tinct. The preacher is blown—his voice is gone. Only when he closes the Bible and begins those remarks in the way of application, in a tone which all involun tarily adopt when speaking earnestly on a consciously impressive subject—that is to- say, in an undertone—does the relief be come general and the attention very marked. Here are lost power and motion enough to preach ten sermons in a more effective manner. Foi though an effective elocution must have variety of voice and action, it does not require that there must be ten times as much voice as is comfortable to preacher and hearer, and it is universally true that pathos and solemnity find their natural expression in a low tone. It is a pity there should be so much waste and misapplied force in our public oratory. Needless noise must necessarily play a very subordinate part in true oratory, if it has any part in it at all. A singer knows the evil effect of “straining the voice.” It was said that an audience would melt into tears on hearing the elder Booth repeat the Lord’s Prayer. He never spoke a word of it outside of a solemn undertone. * The most effective preacher we ever heard was the quietest. An ungainly, awkward, pale-faced, angular man, who gave little evidence of the emotion that burned within save the intensity of his glaring .eyeballs, and whose gestures were made chiefly with his forefinger. But the tick of the chapel clock under the galleries was heard in every pause of his measured rhetoric, and his audiences always, for the time, belonged to him. His force was not so much in manner, as in matter. Another old man, we shall remember, who, after struggling for a life-time against a conviction of personal duty to preach, and being foiled by Providence in every other pursuit—by fires and other providential calamities—entered most un willingly the pulpit at fifty-five, and won all hearts by his sweet and loving elo quence. His hearers were children in his hands in spite of themselves, and yet he never screamed. One cannot say in what true, practical, effective eloquence consists; but it cer tainly does not consist in noise. That never did anything better than make a headache, and we say with regret it spoils the discourse of many an able preacher, while it wrecks their voices. —A'Norwich botanist was surprised the other morning by the appearance in his Case of plants of a fungus or mushroom growth which reared its head above the soil and grew with such rapidity that in twenty-four hours it had reached its full development and wilted. It was five inches in height and one-fourth of an inch in diameter. This led him to a mathe matical calculation of the rapidity of its growth, and he found that it had devel oped in one day 1,000,000 cells, growing at the rate of 116 cells per second. Prof. Asa Gray, writing upon the rapidity of cell formation, cites an instance inhere a century plant increased six inches in di ameter and one foot in height in twenty- four hours, to do which 2,000,000,000 cells hail to be formed, which required their formation at the marvellous rate of 231,- 481 per second. A Boom for Congressman Morris on.—Congressmen and other eminent citizens of tho States of Illinois, Missis sippi, Missouri, Tennessee, Alabama, Vir ginia and Kentucky met in Washington Tuesday last, for the purpose of consult ing as to the fitness and availability of the various candidates mentioned for the Democratic nomination for the presi dency. After a very free interchange of opinion an informal vote was taken, and the unanimous choice was found to be Hon. William R. Morrison, of Illinois. Among those present were Proctor Hnott, of Kentucky; Blackburn, of the same State; Reagan, of Texas ; Eppa Hunton, of Virginia ; Gen. Chalmers, of Missis sippi ; Atkins, of Tennessee, chairman of the House appropriations committee, and many other men of national prominence, iucl tiding most of the Missouri delegation. Alfred the Great. By Thomas Hughes, the well-known author of “Tom Brown’s School Days,” “Tom Brown at Oxford,” “The Manliness of Christ,” etc. No. 20 Standard Series edition, manilla cover. Price 20 cents. As the author says, “Of all that early history, the life and times of Alfred are, beyond all question, the most absorbing in interest.” This book is as entertain ing as a novel, both in contents and style. The world has very few writers who have Mr. Hughes’ ability in gaining and hold ing the attention of readers. “Alfred the Great” is well fitted to wir, over to better books the lovers of mere sensational lit erature. History of England, by Charles Knight. Vol. VII. Card Manilla Cover. Price 30 cents. This great work is approaching comple tion, but one more volume remaining to be issued. English statesmen and critics speak in high terms of it, and eminent students in our own country pronounce it unequalled. As one reads it, he agrees more and more with the opinion of Lord Brougham, who said of it that “nothing has ever appeared superior, if anything has been published equal, to the account of tho state of commerce, government and society at different periods.” Address I. K. Funk & Co., Dey street, New York. —Letters received from the Cape state that the Empress Eugenie, during her stay at Durban, was to occupy the same room in Government House, to ride in the same carriage, and eat from the same ta ble as Prince Louis Napoleon did. Trav eling in Cape carts, she was timed to reach Ityotyozzi, where the Prince was killed, on the anniversary of his death. Round the spot where the two troopers who fell at the same time as the Prince are buried, a ditch lias been dug and a wall raised, so as to form a small ceme tery, in wliick trees and violets have been planted. Gebooda, the leader of the Zulus who attacked the Prince and his party, has given a solemn promise in presence of Major Stabb, that the graves should never be desecrated.

An interesting story respecting the hab its, under peculiar circumstances, of the chapparal cock {Geococcyx Californian- «*), commonly known as the “road run ner,” is related by a California lady, who takes pleasure in reproducing any inter esting matter regarding the natural beau ties of her native State: It appears that a family named Davies being engaged in olive 'culture, occupied tlie “Old Mission” at San Diego, around which is a dense growth of cactus, passing through which, one day, Mr. Davies heard a strange noise resembling tlie sound made by a pair of pigeons billing and cooing, winding up with a succession of short, quick, jerky notes, thus—per-roct! per-root! per-root! The listener searched until he discovered the cause of his sur prise, which was a nest of four young birds of the species Geococcyx Califomi- anus. He took them home, and succeeded easily in raising them in a coop, like chickens, the old ones feeding them. Their beautiful plumage Jsoon at tracted the attention of a number of visi tors to the Old Mission, and notes of the captives have already been given in the San Francisco papers. The birds were finally released, but they regularly return ed at night to the coop and lingered around, becoming satisfied habitues of the barnyard. Two of them died. The re maining two fought until one vanquished the other, which for a while repaired to the cactus, but returned with the nest making season. In the meantime, the sole remaining bird had become so selfish in its attach ment to Miss Davies that it became a nui sance to the household. It would allow no living tiling near her, showing its jeal ousy by darting fiercely attbe object of its hatred, pecking it furiously with its sharp bill, whether cat, dog or child, oftentimes drawing blood, after which it would retire satisfied. For its own dainty consumption it would bring in beetles, bugs, spiders, and when anything larger was captured—for instance, a lizard or small snake—it would fly to its mistress, strut around her until noticed and .petted for its enterprise, during which it cooed like a parrot whose feathers are being rubbed down. With the returned mate it began a nest on a small table by the window in the young lady’s room. The nest, a most uncomfortable affair, about the depth of a soup-plate—was made of large, rough sticks, some of them about ten inches long, which they brought and laid on the outside of the window-sill, if the window’ remained closed, for the occupant of the room to add to the nest was soon completed, tlie inner lining being dry grass and straw. But one- egg was laid in this rude nest in its present location, inasmuch as the male one day decided the fate of “house hold and home,” by bringing to bis mate a large gopher snake, which twirled itself around his beak more than half alive, whereupon, with a pe culiar nervous sensation, the lady immediately removed their lodging to the “cold ground,” among the cactus, where the birds hatched a promising brood, and again brought them to the house for food like chickens. The young birds are much like young turkeys, and at full size are about as large as half-grown turkey hens. The “road runner” partic ularly mentioned never forgot its attach ment for Miss Davies, and would follow her everywhere after its chicks had grown; they only parted when the family left the country, leaving the birds behind, which they now regret. That Wise and Funny Baby. I met Jo on the train from Chicago to St. Louis. He entered the car in his father’s arms, for he was hardly two years old. Tlie momin" was cool, so he had on a furry kind of cloak, and a furry kind of cap with tippets tied down over liis ears, so he wouldn't have tlie earache. The two furry tilings together made him look all in a heap. The fanny roly- poly was set down on a seat in front of me. “Now, Jo,” said his papa, “will you sit right here till I come back? I won’t bring you anything if you don’t.” “I ount hardly ’ink, papa,” Jo prom ised, and papa went away, to see about the trunk, I dare say. The little furry heap looked as if he might any moment pitch headlong from the seat. I felt sure he would if the car should start suddenly. I was thinking I would go over and sit with him when I heard him say to him self, “I needs to get down,” and down the dear little muff scrambled to tlie floor. There lie stood, witli bis bead thrown back, staring at me with two bright blue eyes. I tried to coax him over to sit with me. I wanted to take care of him while liis father was out. Jo shock his head gravely. “Mus’ sit. right here,” he said, with a solemn reproach in bis voice and face that made everybody about us laugh. Then I offered to go over and sit with him. He wouldn’t consent to this. “I ount my papa,” he said. “I ount him so bard. I ount him hardn’n I ount you.” Just then the car gave a great lunge, as if it meant to jolt the breath out of us all. Jo was sprawled out on the floor. I jumped to pick him up. Of course you think he cried. That’s what most boys of his age would have done. But Jo didn’t. He had a lialf-bewildered, half-injured look on his face as he said: “Car tumble me; car tumble me so bad.” Before I could get him squarely on his stubby feet, the car gave another jump. Bump Jo’s head went against the arm of the seat. He didn’t cry this time, either. His temple was red, and, no doubt, smart ing, but he just rubbed it and said, iu bis queer way, “Car hit me; car hit me so bad.” By this time his father came in, and, seeing how things were, he said: “O Jo, what have you been about? Naughty boy 1” Jo doubled his fat fist in a way that might have delighted Hecnan. “Don’t say naughty boy to me, papa,” he said, “don’t say naughty boy to me. I hit you bad, papa. I hit you bad.” Papa took Jo on his knee. Papa frown ed at Jo. “Are you going to strike me?” he said. “Strike you good, papa; not strike you bad,” said Jo, softening. “You are going to strike papa,” said the gentleman, looking sad and grieved. “No, papa,” said Jo, “I jus’ ounted to score you, papa; to score you good, papa.” “When we get to St. Louis I ought to whip you, oughtx’t I?” - . “No, papa, no,” said Jo, solemnly, “oughtn’t whip Jo; Jo too ’ittle, papa. Big boys shame to lick ’ittle boys, papa.” Here, the cars being fairly started, I be gan to lose the most of Jo’s wise, funny talk. Once in a while I could bear liim teas ing for something to eat. Indeed, I think he was eating every mile of the way from Chicago to St. Louis, for put bought some of every thing the wy-peddler brought through Che cars—pjwumt*, apples, candy, figs, chestnuts. And if the papa had re-, fused, some 'of the other passengers would have rnrely “treated” Jo, fOr there was no resisting the littlelellow’s pleading. No sooner would the peddler-boy enter the car than Jo would say pathetically: “I ount some so hard, pfepa; I so’ungry, papa!” I don’t know how in the world Jo found room in ids little body for all that went into liis mouth that day. I don’t think his legs were hollow, they looked too solid. The last I saw of Jo he was standing on the platform in East St. Louis, saying;: “I glad so liar’, papa.” Dear little J.o. « Wickedness.—Not a bad heart, but a diseased Liver, is often the cause of vio lence of temper, vindictiveness, and some times crime; for, when tho spleen is af fected, tlie heart’s clogged in iu better im pulses, for want ot action to carry off the bile. “ I have used Simmon’s Liver Reguta- tor, not only once but often, aud can ef ficiently assert it bas done me more good than any other medicine I Lave ever used. I think it is the greatest medicine for dis eased Liver made in the world. Many ol my neighbors have used it, and all will say as much if not more than I do for its virtues. “John J. Allen, l\v Bibb county, Ga.” Congress. Washington, May 27.—In the Senate, Mr. Pendleton submitted a resolution re questing the President to communicate to the Senate whether any supervisor or su pervisors of census, appointed by and with advice of the Senate, have been removed from office by him or with his consent, and whether any successor to fill the va cancy caused by such removal has been appointed by him or with liis consent. *Mr. Edmunds said he would like to see that resolution in print; there was a little other information of the same kind that he would add.

Senators Beck and Voorliees op posed his confirmation on account of Mr. Maynard’s extreme partisan course during recent times in Tennessee. Senator Bailey { of that State, spoke in favor of Mr. Maynard’s confirmation, taking the ground that -in view of Mr. Maynard’s un questioned private integrity and ability, his extreme partisanship during the ‘ex ceptional period referred to, should be overlooked in the interests of peace and reconciliation.

The Whittaker Case. West Point, N. Y., May 29.—Tlie Whittaker court met to-day in secret ses sion, and made up its final report. The report, after reviewing the facts and evi dence in the case, gives the following con clusions : 1. The court is unable to be lieve that such slight wounds as Cadet Whittaker received could have been in flicted by persons in the manner and un der tlie circumstances described by him. 2. It does not see why a man with his surroundings and frame of mind, as shown by bis own evidence, should have submit ted to an assault such as alleged without summoning assistance during the assault, or immediately thereafter. 3. It believes a person, tied as he was and left as he claims to have been, could readily have released himself. 4. From the testimony of the post sur geon and others the court is compelled to believe that Whittaker was neither asleep nor insensible when he was examined on the morning of April 6th, hut that he was feigning. 5. The court is not able to discover any motive that any person other than Whit taker could have had in making such assaults, and there is no evidence what ever to warrant tlie belief that any other person did make it. 0. It believes that the hair-clipping, flesh-cutting, &c., could have all been ac complished by Whittaker himself. 7. The theory that the note of warning is an imitation of Whittaker’s writing is, in the opinion of the court, untenable. Several tests, to which experts in hand writing were subjected, and their testi mony,'place it beyond dcubt that Whit taker himself wrote tlie note of warniog. The latter conclusion is strengthened by the fact that the half sheet of paper on which this note is written, was found in Whittaker’s possession. The opinion, after a strong array of cir cumstantial evidence from the testimony of experts in handwriting and from the conflicting statements of Cadet Whittaker, and the lack of veracity evinced by him in certain cases during the inquiry, goes on to say that the court is of the opinion that the imputation upon the character of Cadet Whittaker referred to in tlie order convening the court, in the official reports of the commandant of cadets and the post surgeon, is fully sustained. When the report was sent to General Schofield and read by him, he caused a letter to he addressed to Col. Lazellc, commandant of the corps of cadets, di recting the arrest of Whittaker, and plac ing him in confinement in his own room. The order was promptly carried out, and Whittaker will remain under arrest until his case is disposed of, and a guard will keep him under surveillance. Death of Dr. Brn.cc. We have already referred to the death of this excellent man, but we copy the following extract from a letter from his pastor to a friend in this city: ThomasvilLe, Ga., May 25, 1880. Dear Brother: With a sad heart I write you of the death of Dr. J. R. Bruce. He was drowned last Saturday, during that heavy rain and storm, in a small stream northeast of Tliomasville. The stream is very deceptive. It rises very rapidly, and the converging waters rush precipitately across the road. One day last fall I had been to see young Johnson (who has since died) and started home, after what seem ed to me no very great rain, and came near being thrown from my horse into the same place, where it is supposed the doc tor lost his life. To show you how rapid- ,ly it rises, it is thought the doctor had crossed the stream only ten or fifteen miuutes before the fatal plunge. His little boy had gone with tho doctor's span of buggy horses, to a plantation of his some eight miles from town. When the stonn—the most fearful I ever beheld, it seemed to me—began to rage, the father became uneasy for his son, and started to meet him. Archy, his little boy, came in just as ho left. They missed each other, •tc. <The funeral took place yesterday. I have never seen a community so stricken. The stores were all closed. The people were in from all around in tho country. The church house—gallery and all—was. packed. Such a tribute of respect has sel dom been paid any man. It is almost the finishing blow to our church. A rood Hotel to Stop at.
