My Dear Son:—I wish you would please change the address of my pa per to this place, where your motbet and I are now staying. I eot the Reti na all right last week, and see that you are going to enlarge it, so I have sold my hay in order to prepare for the event. What is your idea for enlarging tbe paper before the town enlarges? Of course 1 am no journalist, but I have often thought that if I bad been doom ed to issue a paper like the Retina, and then answer at tbe bar of judgment for it, I would not get a power press till the town got a good dark-blue wholesale and ketail dealers in j hook-and-ladder company and a post- j office. I hope you will not try to issue a daily paper, anyhow, till we see how stock looks when grass grows again. I like your editorial ou “Mark An thony” first rate. I can imagine how excited the people of your town were when they saw the Retina Saturday morniDg and read What your estimate of Mark was. I wish you would incidentally pick up a few others of those eld people and weigh them. Tha* is one of the luxuries of running a paper yourself. You can speak right out and walk all over these people. 1 would like to hear what yonr hon est convictions are in regard to Dioge nes. It would be worth almost what I have put into your paper as a silent partner. You can have no idea, Henry, how it swells me up with pride and lofty disdain to know that while I am sleep ing calmly Lnder my roof tree, as I beard a man call it once, you are show ing up those old frauds like Julius Ctesar and Hamlet and Portcullis and Adronicus and Mrs. Potiphar and oth er people who have become histori cal. While other people are frittering away their time talking about high way lax and boards of health and all such stuff ns that, you are making a red-hot paper of to-day; a paper that fairly boils witL your honest convic tions about the political aspect at the time that Ctesar took charge of the tribune; a paper that shows the aver age reader that you are smart, whether you give them the kind of stuff they want or not. with a gentleman who Uvea in an open- face cottage on tha other aide of the mountains. I then diacovered that these people do not eat their own but ter. . I did not notice any butter, but they bad gravy aa a substitute fer it. Corn dodger in and of itself will not melt in tbe mouth, so I looked around for a means of lubricating my owu. At that time the warm-hearted and hos pitable host made tbe following re mark: “Stranger, you mustn’t be squeara- Jisji. Just waller your dodger in the ipe. That’s the way we do.” I then proceeded to waller. Bill Nye. novelties at TRICES.. VERY LOW- SAMPLES SENT IF DESIRED. CORRESPONDENCE INVITED.

All About Whiskey. Omaha Herald.) Tbe distilleries of the country are very active just now. There over 500 of them now ruuning, nearly 650 in fact, and they are turning out intoxi cants at the rate of over 300,000 gal lons a day. They are using over 75,- 000 bushels of corn a day, and over 7,000 gallons of molasses daily. This is the busy time of the year with tbe distillers. During this month and next there will be running between 600 and 700 distilleries in the country. Six months from now there will be no more than a couple of hundred of them runDiug, though there are 1,200 ot them in the country. These 650 now at work are the legitimate ones, that is to say, those who pay taxes and re port to the Government the business they do. Besides that number there are a loLof them running illegitimate ly, moonshining. The fund provided for the prevention of illicit distilling by the last Congress has nearly giv en out, aud the distillers know it. Your average moonshiner is a pretty shrewd fellow, and he manages in some way to keep posted on the work ings of the department. Tbe money for the detection of moonshiners and for breaking up their stills ran low several weeks ago, and the department was unable to respond to the demauds of the revenue officers for more depu ties. The distillers caught on to tbe situation and the result is tbe moon shiners are beginning to be very ac tive in Kentucky, Tennessee, north ern Alabama, Georgia and North Car olina. Georgia is making more liquor to day than any other State. Her 150 distilleries now running are turning out 100,000 gallons of bourbon whiskey daily. Six months from now there will not be half this number running, and they will only be turning out per haps 20,000 gallons a day. North Carolina has the la-.gest number of distilleries, .the number now running in that Slate being something over 200. Yet they do not turn out over 2,000 gallons a day, an average of less than ten gallonaapiece. On the other hand, Illinois, with only IS distiller ies, turns out 80,000 gallons a day, aDd does that the year round. Illinois makes more whiskey than any other State in tbe Union. She turns out nearly 25,000,000 gallons a year,- while Kentucky makes but 15,000,000 gat- That was my idea when 1 sent you Ions. The Illinois distilleries run u. r. fisiiid: & Newnan, CO., Ga.

Cbicag.- Tribune.1 - It was late in the aftdtnoon when I rang tbe bell to the main entrance to tbe mansion. A bright-eyed young miss responded, and as I handed her a card I realized at once, not without a slight feeling of emotion, too, that I was being greeted by the great-grand daughter of HeDry Clay. Young as she is, she evidently knows what Ken tucky hospitality is, for witbont glan cing at the card even, she ushered her visitor into a noble'drawing-room, where a bright coal fire was blazing. It is an imposing mansion, this his toric home of the Clays. The first en trance is into a large square hall finish ed in polished ash and floored with hard wood, which no covering but a rug conceals. To the left, as one enters, is the study of Henry Cl»y—his own workroom, where he -ludied, wrote and received his polit ical friends. Directly ahead as one enters the front door is a broad en trance to a double drawing-room, ricbly furnished and adorned with pictures and family portraits. This in turn leads into an octagonal dome- covered library IiDed with polished wood throughout. Tbe shelves on all sides contain thousands of volumes, many of them of great value. To the right of the square hall and in the corner rises a broad and richly de signed staircase of polished ash. Major McDowell greeted this visitor cordially and very cheerfully gave him such information about the old place as was needed. MaDy visitors came to Ashland and all were made welcome. Unfortunately, there were but few relics of the old times or the old occupants, but the Major showed a picture of a curious old beadstead used by his wife’s grandparents, now in possession of other members of the family. One can see that the Major himself is not much of an antiquarian, and that his bump of reverence for a dis tinguished ancestry was never devel oped or has shriveled up in the con stant presence of his surroundings. I think no law of hospitality is viola ted in the remark that I believe the Major would much rather talk horse than Henry Clay. It was pretty hard to keep him off'the subject of Dictator colts and King Rene fillies. Tbe Ma jor, however, showed a portrait of Henry Clay hanging in the hall at the age of forty, painted by Mathew Jouctt, a Kentucky artist; also an old daguerreotype of the man at six'y- seven, from which the above sketch is taken. The house and its fittings are so modern and the latter are so ele gant, for Major McDowell is a man of wealth, that one finds it more inter esting in searching for reminiscences of Clay to wauder about the grounds, gaze upon tbe trees he planted with bis own hands, opon tbe out-build ings, such as the old barn ancj tbe ice houses that are as they were half a century ago, and walk in the paths he laid out and graded. The view from the front of the mansion is a beautiful one. It takes into the panorama tbe town of Lexington, and a mile beyond the Clay monument pierces the heav ens, a tiny object, but clear aud well defined. The only sou of Henry Clay alive is John M. Clay, whose residence and the stables of bis string of thorough breds are in plain view of Ashland. John M. is nothing more than a verv respectable citizen. H“e has inher ited none of his father’s great mental gifts. The eldest son was James B. Clay, whom Taylor put into the diplomatic service. He inherited Ashland from bis father, and during the war, it will be remembered, became a rank seces sionist, and to save himself from trouble, took refuge in Canadc. He died without issue. Henry Clay, Jr, the favorite son, went tovbe Mexican war as Lieutenant-Colonel of a Ken tucky regiment, and was killed at Buena Vista. His only child, a the fashion is there quite literally to be out of the world; no half measure will suiltbe stern decree of polar bi ology; strict compliance with the law of winter change is absolutely neces sary to success in the struggle for ex istence. Now, how has this curious uniform- ity of dress in Arctic animals been brought about? Why, simply by that unyielding principle of nature which condemns the less adapted for ever to extinction, and exalts the better adapffed to tbe high places of her hier archy in their stead. Tbe ptarmigan and the snow-buntiug9 that look most like the snow have for ages been least likely to attract tbe unfavorable atten tion of Arctic fox or prowlingermine; the fox or ermine that came most silently aud most unperceived across ibe shifting drifts has been most likely to steal unawares upon the heedless flocks of ptamigan and snow-bunting. In the one case protective coloring preserves the animal from himself be ingdevoured; in the other case it en ables him tbe more easily to devour others. And since “eat or be eaten" is the shrill sentence of nature upon all animal life, the final result is tbe unbroken whitenessof the arctic fauna in all its developments of fur and feather. daughter, is the wife of Major Me- ( njond. Dowell, and the mother of grown young men just out of Yale. Thomas H. Clay, another son, was appointed by President Lincoln, Min ister to Xicarauga. He was quite prominent as a Republican, but be, too, died some time after tbe war. And so are fast dwindling in numbers Robert E. Lee’s Son. New York Evening Sun.] A conspicuous figure on Broadway to-day was Gen. Ruuy Lee, son of Robert E. Lee, Congressman-elect from tbe Eighth Virginia District. He attracted attention even on crowd ed Broadway. He is nearly six feet tall, very rotund, has a plump face, full beard, and tbesparkling blue eyes so characteristic of the Lees. His bearing is military. “A soldier, every inch,” anyone would pronounce him at sight. Gen. Runey is regarded as one of the coming Southern political leaders. It is predicted that be will touch the mark even higher than bis cousin, Gov. Fitzhugh. After the war Gen. Runy, who served ou his father's staff, went to plowing. He became one of the most successful farmers in Vir ginia. He lives on a pretty estate call ed Itavenswood, In Fairfax county, and is said to be worth $100,000—a big fortune as fortunes go in Virginia. He took little or no interest in politics un til two years ago, wheo he loomed up as an aspirant for Congressional hon ors. Last fall he was elected to Con- gressalmost without opposition. It is said that he will enter the field for Riddleberger's place in the Senate in case the Democrats carry the State next November. His brother, Gen. George Washing ton Parke Curtis Lee, isPresidentof the University at Lexington, Va., having succeeded bis father in that position. Gen. Cartis is a quiet student, cares nothing for politics, and is devoted to his college duties. Robert E. Lee’s nephew, Gen. Fitz- bugh, is Governor of Virginia and the most ambitious of the Lee family liv ing. He was a farmer until bis elec tion totheGovernorship. Now behas i entered politics as a profession, hav ing sol, out bis farm and every I hint: on it a few months ago. He allows a Vice-Presidential bee to buzz about his head. Tbe United States Senate bas charms for him, too, and he has an excellent chance of gettinr there. Fitzbugb’s brother, Maj. Lee, e brave cavalry leader in the war, also exchanged tbe sword for tbe plow af ter Appomattox. He is looming up in politics, and will probably go to the Virginia State Senate next year. Robert E. Lee’s daughter, Miss Ma ry, is a great traveler. She bas trav eled in nearly every civilized country in the world, and is seldom seen in her native State. It will be remem bered that she was one of the few American ladies in Rome at the bat ting of Cardinal Gibbons a few weeks ago.

New York C-itv tells the fallowing story: At Albany, two ladles, dressed in the extreme of fashion, entered the car. Their manners indicated greet affectation and consequent shallow ness. The only unoccupied seat in the car was directly behind a quiet-looking lady, evidently from thecountry., Her dress of calico, her bonnet of plain straw, and her gloves were of cotton. She could n«t have looked neater, and she had a good honest face. As the fashionable ladies adjusted their draperies in the unoccupied seat, one of them said to the other: “Don’t you thiuk it too bad that there are such poor accommodations ou railway trains now?” “How—in what way?” asked her companion.. “Why, here we are crowded up'wlth all classes of p-nple—some of them so common. Look at that person ih fiont of us.” “Horrid, isn’t she?” “Perfectly dreadful!” “Looks like a common laborer.” “How annoying to have to Come in contact with such people!” “Belongs to some ordinary family. If one could only exclude oue’s self from such persons when traveling even short distances. I suppose It's horrid in me to say it, but I have all my life had such a repugnance to com mon laboring people.” » The lady iu the calico dress must have heard a part of this conversation, but her face was perfectly composed. At tbat moment an elderly man in tbe home-made garments of a farmer came down the aisle. He stopped be fore the ladies of fashion, closely scru tinized the features of the one having “such-a repugnance to common peo ple,” and just as the train slopped at be station, cried out loud enough to be heard by every persou iu the car: “Lookee byar, haiu’r you old Bill Simpson's darter? But I know you thoul askin’, finw de do, auyhow? You don’t change a speck. Got tbe same nose you bad when you wor a little gal of twelve or fifteen years trottiu’ bar foot round my old farm in Podunk county. Yer mind bow I youst to give you two bits a day an’ your dinner for helpin’ my jounguDS dig taters! Ho! ho! ho!” The young lady had dropped her beaded veil aud was nervously biting at her fan, but tbe old farmer went on heedlessly: . “Tbey’s been mighty changes since, then. Your pap went out to C lorady and made a great fortin’ thar, an’ I hear you live lu great style, but Bill Simpson ain’t the man to forget old riend-, ami you’ll tell him you’ve saw old Jack Billius, what youst to give him many a d»y s work when he was so pore his family bad to wait till ttie hen laid ’fore they could have any breakfast.
