Very generally where you see diseased bogs you will find that they are in poor condition. The attention given has a great deal to do with their sickness. IHet has much to do with their diseases. Want of pure water will keep them from being healthy. Spending weeks in filthy pen* will keep them from thriving. Breeding in and in will make l*ogs unhealthy. In fact, where good, sound food is given this animal; where he has pure water to drink; where clean pens are provided, and !??e is carefullv looked after, he is not apt to lie sick. HOOS VOR CITY MARKET*. In reply to a letter from a Coweta county farmer, we will say that light-classed bogs suit town )??eople best. They should tie meaty and in good condition. To raise this grade of i??ork you want a hog that will come forward early. They should lie kept grow ing from their birth until they go to the butcher-jien. A good plan is to let them have plenty of grazing, feed a variety of solid fo??>d, ground oats, barley, etc., gi them muscular development. When ... feeding, finish with com to produce the de sired fatnem. Hogs thus raised will always command the best prices. # CHICKEN*. Take care of your chickens; it will pay ??? keep them thrifty and healthy. Give them good clean quarters, neat pi lodge in, and nutritious food. If the object in keeping chicken* is to have large, rich egg*, take care of your hens. Find out which breed of chickens is tk best egg p ducera, and get that breed. Raise some pallet* every year to keep up the stock We have received a letter from Ogleihorj*- county, asking a question or two about wheat. We think it agood plan to frequent ly change the seed in a neighborhood from to a gravelly soil, from sand to loaiu, etc., and lew frequently it sliould lie changed to and from different parts of the country*. In selecting seed, judgment the labor of tlie farm When boy*, a few lilacs or holy hocks may have been seen on some farm-yards. Now in old age horticulture | has found favor with them, fruit trees sur round their homes. Not only ha- toil diminished, but the in ellectual part of ag riculture has increased. Yet there are many engaged in fanning who are not doing justice to themselves or their farms. There are many articles now made that sliould be on the farm, articles that frill abridge labor and advance profit*. Many articles that would increase the wealth of the farmer. The South Rend plow company sell annu ally 70,000 of their improved plows. About fifteen million dollars wonh of mowers and reaper* are sold annually in this country. Over 10.000 self-bindets are manufactured and sold. Then there are wind mills, steam powers for farms, hay rakes, grain threshers, etc. How many of these articles can be foaml on our farms???articles that would prove of substantial use in carrying farming operations? These iron liones and laborers should be > our farm*. They diminish the use of human liand*. They are lew costly, and are more reliable than human sinew*. These things will awist to make farmers pros|*er- ous and will do their part to diffuse fra-' grance and beauty and fruitfulness over our state, AOEICVLTCEAL SCHOOLS. It is becoming apparent to quite a nnm ber of our thinking men, that schools ir which matters pertaining to agriculture will be taught.^ are becoming essential in our should give to the er place, and _ justice to all engaged in it.

Mow We Safer from thr Baleof Law yera. Syracuse Courier. Out of the 293 members of the last house of representatives 200 were lawyers! In the senate the proportion of lawyers is protia- bly even larger. Go to Albany, or any of the other state capitals, and we will find the lawyers controlling the state???* legisla ture and a lawyer in the executive chair. We are ruled by the law yer*. That single profession constitute* the privileged class which run* the govern mental machine. With all our talk about popular sovereignty this county i* practically ruled by an oligarchy, and that oligarchy composed of lawyer*. Wc have seen that the lawyers numbered over 70 per cent, of the member* of the last house. The beggarly balance waa distributed among farmers, merchant*, manufacturers, profes sor*, editors, doctor*, banker) and business men generally. But the lawyers, of course, had things entirely their own way, jnst a* tbe^r always have in all our legislative What is the result of this lawyer monop oly in the ruling bodies? Just What might have been expected: the laws made more and more intricate, more and more past the understanding of laymen, more and more promotive of litigation, more anti more in the interests of the legal profession ami ???gainst the interests of everybody else. We are not blaming tl?? lawyers; thev arc human like the rest of us. They live bv litigation, and it is |wrfectly natural that, with the entire law-making machinery' in their hands, they; should frame legislation with a view to making a* much business for their guild as puwtiblc and making tlteir fees for doing the same a* large as pissihle. Self-interest lead* them to complicate the law as much a* possible, where simplifica tion might be fatal fo llieir business. While the prices of all other commodities have been going down, lawyers* charges *re higher than ever. The lawyers have been trying their hands at running this government formany years. All other professions and trades have 'stood aside while the lawyer* experimented with the great questions of finance and currency and tariff We see now what a botch they have made of it. Is it not time for a change'? Let the lawyers call in the counsel and aid of the buaineaw men, and see wliat the re sult will he. We have reached the practical stage; the great quastion of the hour is how to regain prosperity???how to revive our de pressed business. Shall we semi lawyer* to settle such questions, or shall we send men of business to work out the problem? In matter* of business, business men are gen erally thought to be the best authority. There are, as we have seen, altogether too many lawyer* in congress. Tliev axe our ruling class. A* ruler* they have not made a very brilliant sucres* of it. They are get ting ns deeper and deeper in the mire, and thereby increasing move and more the de mand tor the semes* of themselves.

New Yoke. November 6L- ter, dated October 3a says at Salvador, at six o'clock, on the evening of October 3d, a severe earthquake was experienced in the village of Juenapa and neighboring towns in the department of Usulatan. Nearly all the hooaee in Juenapa were destroyed. Many families were buried in the ruins, particu larly in the outskirts of the town, where the means of escape were confined to nar row streets.

The towns included in the dis aster are Guadalupe, Nueva Guadalupe, Chi- nameca, Usulatan.

If farmers would study the nature manures, and how to inaketlieiii.it would lie highly lienticial to them. Dead animal* be converted into an excellent manure. Wi have sometime* seen the dung-heap by the stable door, and the farmer will force from it the ammonia, its most desirable ingredi ent, by throwing ii|wm it umdaked lime Now, if a value is to lie given to the dung- heap, and the ammonia lie held in it in the form of sulphate, apply ground plaster. The urine of the animals on the farm, by applying gotind plaster to it, could lie made a Axed sulphate, w hich i* excellent for corn oi other crop*. If plaster can not he liad conveniently, cover the manure-heap witli dry earth, or dry swamp muck. Ry follow ing this plan, an excellent plant-food ran be made and at but little expense???a plant- food tluu is good for com, potatoes, tur- nipa and for top-dressing. maxcuixo merr trek*. We have received a letter or two asking some questions about manuring fruit trees also alMiut varieties of apples. Wc know men who year after year gather fruit from their trees, who never look after the tree*, rarely trim them, never do any thing for the exhaustion of soil, and yet complain of a depreciation of fruit. Every thing on the farm, every interest, requires care and attention; tlie orchard, as well a other thing*. Give your fruit trees a top dressing of manure in the fall or spring, and you will derive much benefit from it. A good spring droning for fruit tree* will lie found in sv'he*' wood-pile scrapings,* washings from dishes, pulverized muck or commercial fertilizer*. Ram-f anl manure is tlie liest compost for fall. It is a great mistake not to enrich orehurds. As to the question, what apple* to grow, we reply that tlffre aicsome varieties which do nmch better in one locality than another, even when these localities are but a short distance apart. Write to Mr. Robinson, of the Atlanta pomohtgiral society; he will tell yon what apples were decided upon by the society for this section, and not only this, being a successful fruitgrower, lie ca you his mode of manuring orclumls. ???

Bay u few of Mime good breed, look after and at tend to them. There is as muc h money it. lamb, mutton and word as there is in cotton, and what a difference in the rare and looking after, as wel 1 as expense. Cotton is very low, and have your lands been improved by its pn. duction? Wool and mutton are command ing very good prices, and the lands your sheep have run on have been made more fertile. There is many a red old hill in Georgia that could he restored to animation by having sheep run on it. There are many worn out acres of bottom land, wh??we fer tility could he renewed by sheep. Fanner, take our word and try a small flock, and you will be satisfied with the result. fllMRIt. RURAL NEWS.

The Sawyer-Man lamp consist* of two sets ??5 mention of progress in fanning in this state, yet the improvement going on is much greater than many would suppose. There are men engaged in agriculture among us who can remember when clumsy tools were used.

Go deep enough so that the soil will develop the root* of plants, and deep enough tect the roots from dryness. Shallow pi u will leave the plant* in a had condition after a heavy rain, and when the water run* over ground thus plowed, the good soil goes with it. What farmer ever saw his crops do well in surface plowed ground, especially through dry weather? What fanner ha* not observed during such a season that the ground grow* dry, squeez that the plant 'doe* not tlirive or grow Break tlie ground deep, pulverize it thor oughly ; the plant root will run distance, and i* protected from too much dryness or too much rain. Well plowed ground stand* the rain better than when shallow plowed; it doe* not become hard __ quick. It stand* a dry sjwll better, for the roots find more moisture than where surface plowing has been resorted to. In raising chemiyal manure spreading the manure evenly, and in plow ing in, see that it is so done a* to be well incorporated with the soil. COUXTRY ROADS. There are two laws tlie legislature should enact this session. .One is a law to give sheep the same protection all other stock have, and the other a law bv which some Rood road system will be adopted. These laws will be beneficial both to town and country; to the planter on his farm and the business man at his desk in the city. We have written so repeatedly of the justness of a demand upon our legislators for the enactment of a law to protect sheep that we deem it unnecessary to add another word on the subject. To have roads, and to have 800*1 ones,. is a matter of great ini)iortancc to us all. Take even Atlanta, a city highly favored in the way of railroads, seeming to branch ont in every direction. One would suppose these roads combined would be ca pable of doing all the business through the entire country around us. Yet, go on Peachtree, Decatur. Mitchell, Broad???in fact, any of our business street* to-day, and see the numbers of wagons, carts and vehicle* of other kinds, that are collected from the surrounding country. Ride out over these roads to the counties these vehicles have come over, and none of them resemble the macadamized govern ment roads in the Grand Dueby of Baden, in Germany, lined, as they are, on both side* by jiear, apple, cherry, plum and other fruit tree*. The German road* arc nicely sluuled, well kept and in a prettv country. Is this tlie case in Georgia? Rood making should progress here, as do other things. Little boys and decrepid men, with broken tool*, cannot make road* in a projier scienti fic manner. A narrow path way, plowed on the side*, and the middle soft dirt and green pine brush thrown up, is not a good road, and one that will last forever. Georgia needs good, hard, smooth road*. They will add to the value of property ail a* line; not only this, but they will towns, as well a* aid in settling up the coun- tiy. IX THE COIJETRY. Just now the glory of the year ami tlie country. It is the season of golden noontides and delicious mornings. The genial atmosphere make* liappy tlie aged aiid give* vigor to the young. If you doubt it, leave the city ami judge for your self. As you pass out of the city from the passenger depot, the scream of the engine will somi merge into the whistle of the par tridge. and the jingle of the street car hell* will l??e lulled in the whisper* of the wood*. The hum of traffic will be lost U|m??ii the ear, and the voice of nature will swell uiioii That night correspondence with his as sailant was o{iened by Mr. Willingham. The matter from this time assumed the ihapeof an affair of honor. Mr. Frank P. ???ray, editor of tlie Uartersville Express, icted as the friend of Mr. Wofford, while Mr. Willingham was represented by Mr. J. A. Raker, a young lawyer of Uartersville. The correspondence failed to prove satisfactory to Mr. Willingham, and it is said that he sent to Mr. Woffonl PEREMPTORY CHALLENGE a* the means of obtaining satisfaction for his injuries. It is said that Mr. Wofford at once accepted, and all the i??rties left Friday the up passenger train to find some place where they could settle their trouble. They left the train at Adairxville, but the rutuo'r of the aflair had preceded them, ami all of the parties were there arrested by the local authorities. They gave the necessary bond* and left again Saturday morning. This time they got off a few miles from Dalton and procured private conveyance* to reach the city. Here they took rooms at the National liotel and the second*arranged all the pre liminaries for HOSTILE MEETING. The place chosen was Red Clay, a point just beyond tlie Tennessee and Georgia line, and the time agreed ti|xm was 10 o'clock Sat unlay morning. The p Mr. Woffonl carried with! I)r. Wright, of Dalton, one of the most prominent young physicians in north Geor gia. Mr. Willingham's surgeon was Dr. Raker, of Uartersville, a physician of wide reputation Of course their deiiarture was quietly conducted, and there were no spectators on the ground. The entire party returned in the afternoon ami HO BLOOD HAD BEEN SPILT. As to the manner in which the aflair was settled there is of courxe some contradictory rumors, but the general information ami tlie facts as given to the writer by a reliable gen tleman are as follows: Mr. Wofford and Mr. Gray were tlie first *in the ground, and Mr. Grav was measuring tlie distance when Mr. Willingham and his friend approached. Soon after tlieir arrival there was a proposition from them looking to a {icaceable adjustment of their diffi culty. Mr. Grav announced that this propo sition would be agreeable to his principal only *ui condition that Mr. Willingham re tracted the opprobrious word* which had cause*! Mr. Wofford to strike him. It was ascertained that if Mr. Willingham would retract the offensive words Mr. Wofford anvil,??? which is also fixed to the dia phragm. Between the transverse piece of metal and the ???anvil??? is a carbon pencil about one-sixth of an inch in thickness, which is the light-giving substance. The entire lamp is 7J4 inches high, and 2j* inches in diameter. . The princi)tal value of the apparatus depends upon the fact tluit when the globe is placed over the lamp the atmospheric air is displaced by nitrogen gas, in which no body heated to an intense degree will undergo oxidization???that is, be burned. Tlie carbon pencil of this lamp, which is readily destroyed bv an electric current in the open air, suffer* no change whatever in the nitrogen, although the light caused by the intense heat of the current suffers no diminution. In the office where the light was exhibited ssterday there were five lamb*, two being i a chandelier ami three on the walls. All were similar to dial shown by the dia gram, but, being" aiming tlie first man ufactured, had spirit tubes in place of the straight conductors and thick carbon points at the end of tlie transverse metal bar ami on the top of the anvil. The engine that drove the dy???nanto-electric machine was one and one-half-horse j*ower, and at full speed was claimed to be capable of supplying sixty lamps. When the eugine was started the five laiujis were simultaneously lighted, the carbou iiencils instantly giving out an in tense white light apparently about one inch in diameter. The light at a glance was not unpleasant, although continual gazing at it produced an effect similar to that caused by bioking at the sun. The globe of one of the lamps was of oitalescent glass, and this almost entirely did away with tlie dazzling brilliancy without preventing the diffusion of the light. The five lamiis illuminate*! the room brightly with a white yet mellow light, and each was calculated to be of the value of three gas-burners. There were five key-holes in the wall of the room, and to these successively Mr. Sawver applied a key, turning down or altogether extinguishing cue or another of the lights without affecting the remainder. Theeflect was the same as in lowering tlie light of a ga* burner, excepting that when the current was alhigether turned off from one light the rarlion pencil glowed for a few seconds with a dull, red heat. It is a |ieculiarity of this lamp that only that part of the globe around and above the pencil becomes heated, the diaphragm pre venting the transmission of heat below that point. Nor do the transverse and upright metal hare or the anvil become heated, this being accounted for by the fact that all of i basis the settlement was drawn up ami properly signed by all the pc They then returned to Dalton, and o night train Saturday went back to Uarters ville. Thus ended to the satisfaction of all concerned an affair which began in a fierce personal encounter, and then assumed the dark and threatening a*j??eet of a bloody af fair of honor, but at last jiassed off serenely in a withdrawal of the first provocation ami a subsequent apology for the blow it pro voked.

November 6.???At a dinner giv _ last evening by Harvard nnivereity to this year???s ???eight,??? it was decided to recommend tliat the university arrange f Cornell, if a crew from that college will con sent to row at New London, but not at Owasro Lake. This course is rendered ne- earaanr by the fact that the meeting took a favorable view of the proposition to send a crew to Lnglaud, f**r if t!mt was done the Harvard ervw wouh! not have time to go further from home than New London. The sense wf many present seemed to be that it was necessary to row against both the Cornell and Columbia before going to Eng land. The nropoutkm to row the Columbia is also favorably entertained. The matter will, however, be left to a deci sion of the whole college, that course being to make the proceedings regular ire appearing reason to believe that ie question will be decided affirmatively.

SL Louis Timex One of the interesting reminiscences of his recent trip through the east General James Shields tells, is of an interview with \Vendell PhiHii??s. They met in Boston,and Mr. Pliilli|>s, in the course of the conversa tion, exclaimed with some earnestness: ???General Shields, I want to sec the southern democracy get tack into possession of this government.??? Shields laughed, asked licw tliat could be after he had fought the southern people hard. ???I know I did,??? said Phillips, ???but that was on account of slavery. Slavery is dead now and I want the south to get control of the government.'* ???Rut you used to say,??? argued Shields, ???that the south had to la??di over the north ern democracy .- ???I know I did, and the northern democ racy deserved it,??? continued Mr. Phillips, ???wo have no statesmanship in the north. Our leader* are all mercenary, and there is a mercenary taint about all our legislation. We want the old style of southern states man who had thoughts above dollars, and who legislated as th y believed for the welfare of the country, and not for in dividual profits. They had a competence, and they acted as if there were higher aims and ambitious than the mere accumulation of wealth. Wc want such men in congress again, and in control, t*??o.??? ???Rut, Mr. Phillips, in killing slavery haven't you killed off tliat class of states men and the possibility of tlieir reproduc tion! Slavery made a southern aristocracy possible. The favored were able to turn ???their attention from business and sordid cares to questions of state. 1 venture the assertion that the south without slavery won't produce the quality of statesmanship you admire so much.??? ???Ah, there???s the trouble, there's the ??? ???H*-~ it y?? ???I can???t help thinking it???s a greal say* Gen. Shields following up this thought of Phillips ???tliat we haven???t in this coun try a large class of men in our politics with whom the question of livelihood never presses itself forward for consideration; I mean men who are born well to do, who are thoroughly and we 1 educated and who turn their attention to statemanship as a study, a profession in which their ambition is the good of the state, and consequent upon such a c?? personal reputation.

There are other advantages claimed for this lamp liesides the indestructibility of the carbon jtcncil. The resistance of each lamp ia always the same???this being due, of course, to tlie permanence of the carbon ???and the electrical current is therefore not interfered with. The light does not flicker and will not go out of itself. The current, tlie inventor claims, can be distributed with certainty to any extent, and the light ran be easily subdivided. It is claimed that this is the only system ever devised which controls the distribution of electrici ty to different lamps, and this is due to the regularity of action of the lamps. The light will burn under water and cannot possibly set fire toanythinp Mr. Sawyer, in c omitted to call attention ??? the bottom of each lamp is w dentiy distended with some substance. When tlie World reporter asked him what this was, Mr. Sawyer said that the bag and its contents prevented materially the de struction of the carbon tiencil. although ni trogen gas was the chief agent to that end. He declined to say, however, what was in the bag, on tlie ground that as tlie inven tion was so recent other persons might take advantage of it if all it* parts were known. The jiractirability of this lamp is claimed to be beyond all question. The lamp itself is exceedingly cheap. The cost of the light depend* uj*on circumstances. In factories on steamboats and in r places where steam power already exists all tliat is necessary h the generator, and the cost of production Ls nominal. One small dynamo-electric ma chine will give at least thirty lights, each of the power of ten candles, with less than one-horse jsiwer, and a machine three times larger will give nine times that illuminating l??ower. It is claimed that the distance to which the electricity is conducted is of no importance. The machine may be in New York and the laiup in London. 'Practically, a radius of one mile from the central su|??* plying stations to the lamp would lie about projier. Mr. Sawyer suggested that in the event of Manhattan being supplied witli light from these laii^is there should lie ten stations along the North river and as nianv along the East river. There would Ihj tw* main wires in each street, which could be run over tlie houscto|is or protected in tubes. The cost of the light this rase would be about one-fortieth Kmltla's Worm Oil.

We, the Grand Jury of Fulton county, for the week ending November 2d. fall term, 1878, beg leave to make the following general present ments: 1. Through a committee we have examined the jail and find it in general good condition and the priaonon comfortable. There, howeven, seems to be an insufficiency of blankets, and we respectfully recommend that enough blankets be purchased to make the prisoners comfortably warm in all weather. Also, that a few necessary repairs be made of glass, and bolts in the window frames for lore security. - On account of a press of other important bust we have not had time to examine other prop erty of the county or the offices. 3. We recommend that the Ordinary be author ized to have the newspapers, now on file in his office, containing the legal advertisements of the county from 1865 to 1878, bound in a substantial manner. 4. We earnestly recommend to our representa tives the passage of a law providing for the elec tion of a board of County Commissioners of Ful county, iu whose hands, and under whose management shall be placed the entire financial affairs of the county. Other counties of this State have adopted the plan with happy and most beneficial results. This plan will relieve oui Ordinary of that burden, especially as he com plains of having more on his hands than he can well manage. 5. We also recommend the consideration of a law giving all our county officer* fixed salaries instead of fees and perquisites. Some of these officers are said to yield a large amount of money yearly, and, from the present system, it is impos sible for a Grand Jury to ascertain how much. Our new fundamental law, lately and wisely made, is founded on the strictest economy, and we feel that the same economy should be carried out to the remotest details of our government, that the systems will harmonize. fi. We have had under consideration the report and supplement therto, both to October 1,1878, of the committee appointed by his Honor, Judge Hillyer, a few months since, to investigate and report upon the conditions of our county finances and county offices, and we especially recommend that said report be spread upon the minutes, and that his Honor, Judge Hillyer, order that the same be published In full In The Atlanta Cosstitu tiox at mice. [We have arranged with the pub lishers to publish it for $15.] We fully endorse the changes recommended In said report as to the system of keeping the ac counts, records, papers, etc., having examined some of the books which were recommended by the committee and now in use, and haring heard complaint as to the loss of important Court papers. 7. As to the supplementary report of said com mittee and the accounts which they say ???appear as irregular, and for the payment of which they have not been able to find any legal authority,??? state that the officer paying the same claim to have had authority in the shape of precedent, recom mendation of former grand juries, orders of court, etc., if not in actual law. We have uot the time or the means of deciding the question satisfactori ly, even to ourselves, as to the law, but if the law is not clear and explicit it should be made so at once. 8. Wc recognize tlie fact that in the prosecution of the business of the county, that contingencies msy arise where it will be necessary for the inter ests of the county for the Ordinary of the county to use discretion and to order the payment of counts not specifically authorized by law; and, therefore, wo recommend that in all cases where there is not strict legal authority that the Ordina ry shall, before ordering the payment of such bill, have the same approved in writing by the Grand Jury and the Judge of either the Superior or City Court. 9. We feel that we should congratulate the peo ple on the general condition of good morals, law and order, and the evident diminution of crime- of all grades in onr midst. In conclusion we return thanks to his Honor, Judge Hillyer, and Solicitor General Hill for the able and impartial discharge of their respective duties and courtesies to our body; also thanks to James Landrum, bailiff, for his, and request that these presentments be published in The Atlanta Constitution.

The Diva???s Own Story or her Child* hood and First Lyric V< From the Theater. The story of her early life as told by Mine. Patti to Dr. Edward Hanslick, of Milan, is a* follows: She was bom at Madrid in 1813. Her father was a .Sicilian, and her mother a Roman, ami both were excellent singer*. In her childhood tlu* family migrated to New York, where she liecame proficient in modern language*, and was taught by her step brother to sin^. The lessons in singing were continued bv Mi. Maurice Strakosch, who married her cider sister, Amelia. ???A musical ear, and the capacity and desire to sing,??? says di va, ???were developed in me at an early Whenever my mother sang I was at the theater, and every melody, every gesture became firmly fixed on my mind. After being put to bed 1 would secretly ge up, and by the light of the lit tie lamp enact, for my own satisfac tion. all the scenes which I had witnessed at the theater. A red-lined cloak of my fathers, and an old hat of niy mother???s served me a* costume, and thus I acted, danced, and chirped???barefooted, but with romautic dranery???all through the opera. Applause and wreaths were not lacking, either; for I personated, too, my audiences, applauded and threw bouquets at myself??? bouquet, manufactured of old newspapers. ???Then bitter misfortune befell us: tlie manager failed and di*ap|ieared without naying his debts, and the troupe dispersed. Before long we were harrassedby poverty and trouble. My father carried many thing* to the pawnshop, and sometime* knew not how to produce bread for us. The thought occurred to mv father that mv childish voice would'save the family from starvation. And. thank God, I did save them. When seven years of age I apj.eared as a concert singer, and did it with all the pleasure and careless gladness of a child. In the concert hall I stood on a table, next to the piano, so that the audi ence could see the ???little doll.* ???And what do you think I first sang? Why, nothing but bravura arias; first, *L T na voce poco fa,??? with tlie same ornamentation and exactly as I sing it to-day. I had the happiness of seeing the jviwned clothing and trinket return, and we again lived a comfortable life. Thus a few year* tossed, during which I plaved and sang industriously with mv sister Carfotta. My ability and my love for the stage largely increased, and in 1859, when but a half-grown girl.
