Their great clusters sweating wine ;
Still, along the loamlng furrows.

Dips her brown wings in the dew.
Still the great Oaks, green and glorious,
Clash their mighty emerald shields,
And the queenly Elm. victorious,
Still her leafy sceptre wields;
Here and there the tancled stubble
Of the Boekwheat, newly shorn.
Stains the gaunt cheeks of the hili-skle
With the raddy hues of Corn.

Thro the shrubbery's rustling gloom;
And the swallows dart and twitter
'Xeath the gables' trellissd bloom ;

The onng Wife's Confusion,
"Yoa are one woman of a thousand,
2s ell you are by Jove! and I'm proud
f you. Come when I may, I find
house as neat as a bandbox and my
little wife a freah as a rose. I like
that Nell. I've always thought that
if anything could put me oafc of tem
per with the woman I loved it would
be to come home and find the house
topsyturvy and my wife in a soiled
wrapper and with a rough head. Lit

pretty bride until her cheeks glowed
like -the red June roses outin the sun
shine. She was very happy, very much
pleased and flattered at her husband's
praise.
They had been married just six
months, and Nell was a pattern for
all housewives.
She arose with the Jjird3 that made
their nest in tho great apple-tree, and
did her housework in the early morn
ing hours.
Come when he might her husband
always found his home in order, the
cupboaroVstored with something good
to eat, and his wife dressed in a fresh
wrapper, with a flower in her hair
and a smile of welcome on her fair
faoe.
"If there's one thing more likely to
provoke a fellow than another,'' he
went on, lingering a moment on the
sunny portico, his arm around her
waist, " 'tis to bring a friend home to
dinner or luncheon and find every
thing oot of sorts. Now there's
Gravesly; his wife's a fine woman
when you see her out a showy wo
man, always well dressed. Well Gra
vesly Invited me to lunch that day we
went out together. I went, but was
sorry enough for it. Such a house as
we found all heels-over-head, and I
caught sight of the mistress disappear
ing up stairs in curl-papers and slip
pers. She was indisposed and could
not see U3, the girl said. We lnnehed
on bread and cheese, and Gravesly,
poor fellow, though he said nothing,
looked exceedingly annoyed. I
should nave been angry. I think a
wife should make it her duty to keep
her house and her person in present
able order, so that her husband, come
when be may, may find her ready to
meet him."
"So do I," said Nell, smiling up in
to his face. "You need never be af
raid to invite a friend home with you,
Ned. No matter if I don't know, I
shall be ready to receive yon."
Ned gave her a ringing kiss.
"Very well, little woman ; T shall
try yon one of these days and now I
must run. "Good-by."
She watched him out of sight, with
happy eyes, and then went back to
her pretty sitting-room and her work-
l table.
A month later the summer was on
the wane and the fruits were well
ripened.
"Jane," said Mrs. Hastings one
bright morning, returning from the
garden gate where she had parted
with her husband, ,I have just look
ed at the currants, and they nre quite
ripe. We must make our jelly at
once. Now Mr, Hastings won't be
'home till late to-day. I want to spend
the day with mother to-morrow and I
should very much like to get the job
off my hands to-day. What do you
say ?"
"I can soon pick the currants, ma'
am." "All right ; auppose you bsgin. We
won't clean up now. I$et the house
stand, though it is dreadfully out of
order. Perhaps we may find time to
straighten up when we get the fruit
cooking. Hnrry, now and pick as
lascasyoucan.-and I'll step over to
Brown's and order-some sugar andnnmindfuI-of themeanderingred,riv-
nars.
BEOWVILLE, KEBEASKA,
Jane obeyed, leaving the hreakfaat-
(room nnawept and the front steps un
washed.
It was high noon before the first
kettle of juice was got in cooking or
der. Making currant jelly was rather
more of an undertaking than Mrs.
Hastings supposed.
She had seen it made at home un
der her mother's supervision, and
making It herself she fancied would
be quite as easy.
"Dear me, how the time flies! Do
hurry, Jane! What a lot there is
yet to strain ! But we must get done.
I daresay it won't take the juice long
to thicken: Mamma used to make it
up in no time. What are we to do
about dinner, I wonder? We can't
cook the ham, there's no room on the
stove. We must have a make-up din
ner when we have finished. Mr.
Hastings will excuse us. I'm sure."
And, arrayed in her Holland apron,
with her pretty braids all pushed
back and her sleeves tucked above her
elbows, Nell worked away with all
her might, picking, boiling, straining
until her cheeks were flushed and her
head ached.
"Why, Jane, this juice won't be
jelly, and it has boiled so long. What
can be the matter?''
'There's something you put in to
make it jelly, I think, ma'am."
"Oh, dear, no. Mother never did,
I'm sure. .I'll add more sugar, and
let it boil another hour. Dear me! I
thought we should have had our last
kettle on by this time. We Ehall
ibe so late, and I'm tired to death now.
I wish I had done as mother said.
She advised me to send the currants
over there and let Hannah make the
jelly, but I was sure I oould do it my
self." The steaming kettle boiled another
hour.
The summer sun hung above the
green summit of the poplars.
"Surely, it will bejelley now, Jane,"
said the weary housewife, pouring
some of the hot red liquid Into cold
water.
But juice it remained for all the
cooking and stewing it had under
gone. "Oh, what shall I do? Surely the
stuff mast be bewitched. I've a great
mind to pour it all away," cried poor
Nell, ready to cry with vexation.
"I tell you, ma'am, you put some-
Jane
"Oh, Jane, hush ! You know noth
ing about it. I tell you you don't put
anything In. What must I do? Cook
it more? It is burning to the kettle
now, aad I've wasted ever so muoh
sugar! Jane, run over to mother's
and ask Hannoh to step over, will
you? She'll know in a minute what
to do. Do pray be quiek ; it is dread
fully late."
Jane departed.
"If cooking will do, I'll make jelly
of it before Hannah gets Irere," she
said.
"But, instead of boiling to jelly, the
currant juice boiled over in great
foamy, red waves.
The fire hissed, and a dense smoke
and a pungent seent of burning sweets
filled the kitchen.
Spattered from head to foot with
the hot liquid, one hand scalded, her
pretty face besmeared, Nell retreated
to the door in utter despair.
"Oh, I wish I had never "
The sentence was never finished.
She stood dumb with horror, for
coming leisurely along the sunny
garden-path she sow her husband and
his particular friend, Mr. Warburton.
"He has invited him home to din
ner!" she gasped, darting back Into
the smoky kitchen. "Oh, what shall
I do?"
Two or three harrowing minntes of
suspense, aad her husband entered.
"Nell, are you here? And what is
the matter? Is the kitchen on fire?
The whole place is In a fog."
Nell came forward, looking more
like a tattooed Indian than the pretty
woman she was.
"I am making currant jelly and I
thought you wouldn't be home till
Iate.Ned."
'Does it require such a meae as this
to make currant jelly? And what a
fright you are, Nell! I've brought
Warburton home to dine.
There's not a mouthful of dinner,
Ned.'
'What? Didn't I send a ham and
a pair of chickens ?'
I've had no time to cook. I've
been making jelly all day.
'Confound the jelly! Come, Nell,
you must get up some show of din
ner.
I can't, Ned ! I'm tired to death,
and my hand is burned. You should
not have invited Mr. Warburton with
out letting me know.'
Now just hear that,' cried the pro
voked husband, "after telling me so
often to bring a friend whenever I
liked ! I'm surprised at you, Nell.
Nell sank into a seat, and, coverin
her face with her sticky apron, burst
into tears, -while the jelly began to
steam over again.
Her husband, half beside himself
with the hissing noise and his own
vexation, made a dive at the kettle,
and, in his efforts to get it off the
stove, npset it, deluging the floor.
I'm glad of it! You've no busi
ness attempting to make the con
founded stuff when you don't know
how," he cried, flouncing out of the
kitchen, and leaving his wife to have
her cry out. 'I'll go and send War-
burton away.'
Poor Noliv aobhd mUiv
er at her feet, until Hannah entered.-
THUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1S7T.
!Whyt dearie, what trouble you're
In, to be sure! and all your jelly
wasted. Bufenever mind ; we'll have
the next kettle all right.'
Nell sprang up and threw herself
into the old woman's arms.
Oh, Hannah! and Ned's gone to
send Mr. War burton away without
his dinner, and he'll never forgive
me,' she sobbed.
'Yes he will, dearie; yes he will
don't you fret! I've sent them over
to your mother's for a lunch. And
now let me tell you what to do. Put
all that jelly-making by till to-morrow
we'll begin again bright and
early in the.morning, and
,Bntr Hannah, it .won't come to
jelly
'Oh, yes, Itwill, wh$n we add a lit
tle gelatine.'
'Didn't I tell yon, ma'am?' mutter
ed Jane, mopping up the red river.
'Never mind the jelly, now,' con
tinued Hannah. 'You and Jane set
to work and get up a nice little sup
per, and take down your curls, and
put on your prettiest gowrr, and I'll
hurry over and send the master and
his guest back about sunset; that'll
make everything right.'
Nell demurred a little.
'Ned was cruel to get into a passion
he knew I couldn't help it,' she
sobbed.
Old Hanneh gave her a look.
'Hush, my dearie; put that foolish
pride in your pocket; you can't af
ford to spoil your happiness. Mind
what old Hannah says.1
And NjlLobeyed.
She and Jane worked as they never
did before-in all their lives.
Sunset -found the kitchen as clean
as a new pin me umortunate jeilv
banished and the daintiest of supper
tables set.'
And as the sun went down Nell
herself walked down the garden path
to meet her husband, robed in crisp,
white rouslln, a scarlet ribbon zoning
her waist, a rose In her hair.
'I am glad to sec you, Mr. Warbor
ton,' she said smilingly. 'You have
found me in great tribulation to
day. I attempted to do what I did
not understand, and got into trouble.
Ned, dear, forgive me, and bring your
friend in to supper.
Oh, Nell, what a brute I was!
whispered her'husband, detaining her
a minute at the kitchen door. 'Can
you forgive me? And your poor
hirtp!ai.-T'.llteUr

'No, Ned, she replied. T shall
learn to make curreut jelly to-morrow.

TXCIVILIZED WARFARE.
How tho Russians and 3Iontenegrins
Treat Prisoners of War.
Special Telegram to the Inter Ocean.
New Yoke. Sept. 9. The Turkish
Minister of Foreign Affairs has sent
the following to imperial missions :
Subuhe Porte, Aug. 13. A tele
gram from Osman Pasha, dated Aug.
10. informs us of the odious treatment
inflicted dy the Russian military au
thorities upon a Turkish soldier taken
prisoner. The soldier, who is called
Youssouf, was interrogated at differ
ent times ia regard to his commander
and the army corps to which he be
longed. Persisting in his answers
that he knew nothing, he was beaten,
stripped of his clothes, and entirely
covered with tar. In that condition
he was exposed standing in the sun
for three days without food, and
threatened with being burnt alive.
He finally escaped and came to the
Ottoman headquarters covered with
tar from head to foot. A telegram
from All Saib Pasha, Commander-in-chief
of the Ottoman army in Monte
negro, informs us that the Montene
grins, doubtless inflamed by Russian
example, have renewed the fearful us
age whieh they appeared to have
abandoned, consisting in subjecting
their prisoners to horribie mutilations,
and to-day inflict them on non-com-batants,and
even on children. Seven
children, boys and girls belonging to
the viitege- of Globofdja, in the dis
trict of Podgerifza, having fallen into
their hands, have safJered the most
fearful treatment. One of them had
the ears and nose cut off, another his
arms crushed, and, with the exception
of one, who alone managed to escape,
the fate of the others is unknown.
As there is much falsehood and bosh
going the rounds of the gold ring news
papers, in the shape of arguments
against remonetization, the Journal
restates the main points of thee who
advocate the restoration of sliver.
The gold registers say that silver
was at a diseount in 1873, when the
act of demonetization was passed.
Silver fractional currency was at a
discount, and so quoted in the mark
ets, but was not a legal tender for all
debts; but the silver dollar was worth
three cents more than the gold dollar I
on the day'the bill becan?e a law, and
had been at-a premium foryear3. But
the silver fractional currency was not
affected by the law ; it was the dollar,
worth more than gold, the stiver legal
fender of our coinage, that was dls
honored It Is claimed by the gold registers
that because now, gold is worth more
than silver, it would be unjust to re
turn to the silver standard, or to use
the silver dollar unle3 more metal la
put into it.
The reply of the silver advoeates3k
that Itfs because of tho demonetiza
tion of the silver dollar that gokl has
jbeen-able to advance in value, and
tbathence justice to the debtor and
creditor alike demands that the bal
ance that originally existed be first
restored by the restoration of silver,
when that is done, if gold does not
come down to its original value, it
will be time to change the standard,
not before.
It is claimed by the gold registers
that it will be unjust to pay the cred
itors of this country in depreciated
currency. To which it Is replied by
the silver men thaMt is just as unjust
to the debtor to force him to pay in
appreciated currency, and that the
way to avoid injustice is to repeal the
law that changes the terms of the t
original contract, and, after silver is
restored, to pay the creditor in which
ever coin the debtor prefers, just as
the bond provided. Between committ
ing an injustice by carrying out the
terms of a contract, and commiUinp
an injustice by violating thecontraat,
the former Is always the choice of an
honest man. Slaie Journal.

There is not a patriotic man la the

n't got it, aad we beg, in all candor
and kindness, to remark to the Presi
dent that to simply say we want such
a state of affairs don't bring em
about. The father who should go
around the boose crying. "I want
food for my family," and then expect
them to consider themselves filled to
repletiou with turkey and lobster sal-1
ad would be thought a very Mica w-
berish kind of a man. It is his busi

-Pr-nr., ncim t
loani the Union preserved as it is, but
to preserve it ; not only to teant the
Constitution with all its amendments
observed, but to take care that they
are observed; not merely to waut "the
citizens of every State to feel at home
in every State," but to see that the
laws are so enforced that suoh rights
shall not be Infringed; not alone to
want a citfcsen of Vermont to be able
to travel In or remove to Texas or
Georgia with safety, but to make sure
that he shall be able to do so is spite
of opposition from any quarter.
There is an old man in Washing
ton, a native of the South, an uneoci
promising Union man during the
war, who has been driven from hie
home, his property destroyed, and he
left penniless and destitute because he
dared exercise the privilege of being a
Republican. It does not bring a vast
amount of comfort to this gray-haired
patriot to be told that his government
wants him to have protection.
There ia a United States Senator
from Mississippi who ia a fugitive
from the State, knowing that hid life
max pay the forfeit of his return there.
He does not cheer vigorously becaoee
his government tell the people it
wants such men protected, while it
fails to lend them protection.
There are colored men la Canada
afraid to return to South Carolina, be
cause, having dared to defend them
selves from attack during the last
campaign, they are now warned that
their old enemies being In power,
they will be murdered if found in the
State.
They do not cheer loudly because
the administration wants the consti
tutional amendments sacredly ob
served, bat does not use n ecas-to'ea-force
them."

Judge Chisholm. the reek lees tortur

unscrupulous manipulators of the

to this an auditor at Marietta respon

while we read and grow enthusiastic

us such words as these, which we

Niw York, September 11. A spec
ial from Salt Lake says that the
twelve appostles yesterday issued an
epiette to the Mormon people claiming
to bayo received a revelation from God
on the 4th ins, directing tbera to pre
side ever the church without electing
anew president. The promulgation
I of this extraordinary document creates
quite a snrprfce among Mormon peo
ple aad disgust among the Gentiles,
who are too well aware of the past acts
of several of the twelve not to believe
that the Almighty had but a small
part in the matter. The boldness is
far beyond anything ever dreamed of
and is equalled only by the disgusting

is acknowledged to be president of

eoietle is verv lengthy and issuetaln-
ed by gl theapostlas, who clinch their
elaloi bv ouotiac from a sermon deli v-
ered at Nauvoo long ago by Brigbam
Young. They quote Joseph Smith as
having conferred upon the heads of
the twelve apostles all the keys and
powers belonging to the apostleship
whieh he himself bekl before he was

can set between Joe and the twelve
either in this world or in the one to
come. They waited on the Lord who
blessed them and revealed their future
according to Hundreds. From dis
patches, sen toff yesterday it thought
that the twelve and their friends have
given orders that the church, meaning
the masses, must accept this epistle
and not question that heaves has con
ferred ruling power upon the twelve
men, and it will be aa offence to raise

Platte Valley, creating a steep barom-

and strong local winds. The thermal -gradient,
it estlmieit fell sbarplj
eastward at the rate of one degree for
every seventeen m&es, and thus were'
oreated the conditions favorable for
the development of the meteor. Du
ring the early morning of Saturday
the depression moved to the north
ward, and the atmospheric tornado or
'explosion, as the Herald calls it,
took the direction southward in ths
valley along a very narrow track.-
'Advancing with a riaoohet move

curves close above the bridge, and in
an instant lifted two of the great Iran
spans from their abutment and piers,
and whirled tbem a mere wreok of

Nebraska and Er Roseare?.
Nebraska is not only a great agif
eultural State, but ie ate an exaa
grasiae: country, especially ta west
ern half, where there are about Itivia
rieties of grasses, including the Buffa
lo grass, which, after nourlthlng the"
hundreds of thousand-? of cattle, setp
and horses all summer, in autumn
dries without decay and becames bay
on tbe ground for all winter. It has
been estimated that this great graaintfr,
region, between the Missouri and
mountains, sustained fifteen aaflHofts
of buffaloes, besides, perhaps a great
er number of elk, deer, antelope, wild
horses, and all herbivorous animals,
twenty years ago. However nearly
correct this estimate may be, ttfae fact
is. Nebraska could sustain &t fea3i
800,090 more cattle, sheep and horses,-.
Throughout the State, the present
wheat, oats, barley, rye and mfcWet
crops just harvested, are the best e.vex
raised. The acreage of eora is targe,
crops good and too nearly matured te
be injured by tbe drought or insects
neither of which have damaged aay-
thing thfs year. Potatoes, squashes,
melons, and all kiaos of vegetables,
are doing well, and fruit, where oakl
vated, is promising. Young fruit
trees grow so rapidly, aad so late in
tbe autumn, that tbe unk-asdoaed
wood Is llkoly to be winter-killed;
but by planting oa the northern stapes
and cultivating a compact WeU of for
est trees around the orchard, apples,
pears, peaches, plums, cherries and all
kinde of berries may be raised there
in abundance, as ia proved bj the suc
cess wherever fruit growing has bean
tried. Ia a soil so wall drained aa
atmosphere so pure, a sunshine s
bright aad gonial ; in a land so free
from fogs, sleet and anttmely frests,
all manner of delicious fruit wittsue-9
ly soon abound.
Tbe facilities for manufacturing ar
excellent, as the water-power ft? abu.
