Hott Henry Clay Prepared His 1
Speeches.
When he deemed it necessary to make I
an argumentative speech, or" what is ;
generally called a set speech, he had his
books piled into a carriage, and with his !
servant went just over the Maryland lino I
to the plantation of Hon. Charles H.
Calvert, and there remained in privacy
until he was ready to address the Senate. |
Mr. Calvert was one of the wealthiest
men and leading agriculturists in the I
State of Maryland. Mr. Clay’s room
was upon the ground floor upon the back
side of the house, and opened upon a
large portico from which there was I
magnificent scenery, as attractive a
place as a retired statesman could desire,
and the freedom of the plantation was
his, with all its numerous servants, com
ing and going, arriving and returning,
as he pleased. Mr. Clay’s room there
gives notoriety Ur the establishment to
this day. Few strangers at Washington
in the summer time fa’ to visit it. It has
ever been the object of the proprietors
to keep the room as he left it. There
are his easy-chair, dressing-gowns and
slippers. But his set or argumentative !
speeches were not what gave him char
acter. He was not like Mr. Calhoun,
when he made an uninterrupted speech
in the Senate, nor like Webster in the
Supreme Court-room. It was for his
forensic or disputative talents that he
was distinguished above all other mon.
Although the Senate and the galleries
would always bo filled when it was an
nounced that Mr. Clay was to speak, yet
it was always with the expectation and
’tope that some one would interrupt him
t\d a grand intellectual sparring exposi
i would take place. Os all men whom
1 ever heard I never knew one who could
endure so much interruption and discuss
so many side issues and yet finish his
speech with the entire facts and the en
tire line of argument marked out in his
mind from the beginning, as Mr. Clay.
Could the enemies of Mr. Clay have
formed a combination never to interrupt
him, nor bo interrupted by him, they
would have deprived him of much of his
S natorial glory. The best speeches of
Calhoun, Webster and Benton were well
considered, and read now much as when
delivered. Not so with Mr. Clay's best
speeches. They were unpremeditated,
and as much a surprise to himself ns to
his audience. Shorthand reporting had
not then reached its present condition.
Thus, Clay must suffer with posterity
incapable of hearing the varied intona
tions of his ever-pleasing voice, or of
seeing his gesticulations, his rising upon
his toes, his stamp of the foot, his march
down the aisles until his long fingers
would almost touch the President’s desk,
and his backward trend to his seat, all
the while speaking; his shake of the
head, his dangling hair, and his audience
in the galleries rising and leaning over
as if to catch every syllable. As an im
promptu, cut-aud-thrust debater, always
ready, never thrown from his guard,
where is your equal of Henry Clay?—
From a Lecture by John Wentworth.
Sheep liaising.
The sheep industry in the United
States is vast and important, and in the
consideration of which there are two
pnrtially.distinct, and at the same time
interlocking interests. Sheep were in
early times pown almost solely for their
wool, and with the annual shearing came
the year’s income ; but in later times,
mal pever so prominently as now, the
carcass is looked iqmn as an important
item in sheep husbandry. Mutton as a
cheap and acceptable meat has of late
grown greatly in popularity, and mutton
now stands as one of the two important
factors in the successful raising of sheep.
In view of the fact that the merino is
essentially a wool-producing breed, with
a fleece of the finest and best quality, it
is evident that the pnre-blood merino,
though it may supply our manufactories
w ith the material for the finest of woolen
goods, on the other hand cannot
satisfy the butcher. The sheep having
th r*>th feed and clothe its keeper, it is
nti important question : What is the
best breed of sheep to do this ? Evi
dently not the pure-blooded merino.
Though the grow ing of the pure-blooded
merinos has its place, and an impor
tant one, and the demand for their wool
indicates the prosperity of manufacture
of the finest goods, it is by thocrossingof
them with other breeds in which the
flesh-producing qualities predominate
that a sheep best for both meat and wool
is produced. A cross-breed is the one
that in most localities is to pay. The
merino is slow of grow th and small of
carcass when mature ; but when crossed
with a rapid grower, one that matures
early, is a high feeder, and lays on flesh
rapidly, but not remarkable for its wool
either in quantity or quality, a sheep is
obtained that pays for itself in its wool
of prime quality, and furnishes a good
quantity of mutton as a profit. Os such
character are the crosses of the merino
with the Cotswold and the South-down.
Rut with the great mass of American
«heep on the Western plains, wool is the
important product, and hero the cross
must lie with the merino upon the
“native”—a race of sheep which has
grown out of u variety of early imjior
tations to this country—an intercrossing
of various breeds in which many of the
good jioints have l»een lost. In tJiis field
the merino has a great work to do to
raise the yield of wool one, two, or more
pounds per head, and give it a higher
value.
Women’s Rights Among Hie Hottentots.
Women's rights appeal to be well as
certained and jealously guarded among
the Khoikhoi. “In their houses the
woman, or taras, is the supreme ruler ;
the husband has nothing at all to say.
While in public the men take the promi
nent part, at home they have not so
much power even as to take a mouthful
of sour milk out of the tub without the
wife’s permission If a man even should
try to do it his nearest female relations
woind put a fine on him, consisting in
-ows and sheep, which is to be added to
the wife’s stock.”

Abraham Lincoln’s Parent’s Marriage, i
Captain J. W. Wartman has been aide
to secure what Ward Lamon and other ■
biographers were unable to secure, a re
liable record of the wedding of Abraham ;
Lincoln’s father and mother. The fol- '
lowing affidavit on the subject will ex
plain itself:
“I, Christopher 0. Graham, now of
Louisville, Ky., aged ninety-eight years, |
on my oath, say: That I was present at ;
the marriage of Thomas Lincoln and
Nancy Hanks, in Washington County, !
near the town of Springfield, Ky.; that
one Jesse Head, a Methodist preacher, of
Springfield, Ky., performed the cere
mony. I know the said Thomas Lincoln
and Nancy Hanks well, and knew the
said Nancy Hanks to have been virtuous
and respectable and of good parentage.
I do not remember the exact date of the
I marriage, but was present at the marriage
I aforesaid ; and I make this affidavit
freely, and at the request of Captain J.
W. Wartman, to whom, for the first time,
1 I have this day incidentally stated the
fact, of my presence at the said wedding I
. of President Lincoln’sfather and mother,
i I make this affidavit to vindicate the 1
j character of Thomas Lincoln and Nancy
i Hanks, and to put to rest forever the |
I legitimacy of Abraham Lincoln’s birth. I
I I was formerly proprietor of Harrods- *
! burg Springs. lam a retired physician,
and am now a resident of Louisville, Ky.
I think Felix Grundy was also present
at the marriage of said Thomas Lincoln
and Nancy Hanks, the father and mother
■f Abraham Lincoln. The said Jesse
Head, the officiating minister at the mar
riage aforesaid, afterwards moved to'
Harrodsburg, Ky., and edited a paper
there, and died at that place.

, however, avails him little, for, when conquered,

may sound rather fishy to the skeptical reader,

that even the waves of time cannot jva-sh away
or scaly epithets affect. St. Jacobs Oil to-day
has rendered the lives and homes of myriads of
sii fferers brighter than ever the electric light can,
which people pause to admire along the way. Still
more happily served than the old sailor was an
Invalid, who wrote thus concerning his case:
"CROOKED HAERTEL."
