Clasidon, Geauga Co., Ohio,
Novcmbor 12tb, 1879. $
Dkak Joubxal : When, 35 years
ago 1bI July, I came, a boy of 16.
from the banks of the Hudson, and
first 6 w, from the deck of the eteara-
bo&t, years before tbo Lake Shore
road was thought of, the long, low,
uninterrupted line of forest along
the Ohio shore, it seemed to me that
I had come as far to the westward
sb any rational ambition ought to
bring a new-fledged Auglo-Saxon.
There was even then, I believe, a
muddy village called Chicago, bnt
there was not yet a State of Iowa,
while the majestic ugliness of the
Missouri still remained to most
white people an undiscovered dc-
dellght Bryant's beautiful poem,
a The Pralrie6,w was probably tho't
oat somewhere in Middle Illinois,
or possibly to the west of Dubuque,
while, when he said :
"On these plains
The bison feeds no more; twice twenty
leagues
Beyond remotest smoke of hunter's camp
Koams-tfcc majestic brute, in herds thai
skat
Tlre earth with thund'ricg EtepV'
he 4bUes3 had his mental vision,
pncoMfliouslv- to himself, fixed on
the vicinity of Kcatskotoos, or, per
chance, where the no less majestic
din or an equally thundering tread
is now borne even to these Ohio
hills, ominous of doughty tug be
tween the aboriginal queenlines of
SenoR and the rising glories of
Fullertou.
Since then I have spent years In
the London or the Occident," as I
once heard Dr. Cox magniloquently
style that city which plain people
generally know us Xetv York ; years
under ths Sonthcrn Cross, and years
'ktujil the endless sunshine of our
western plains: and uow, after 27
years of .absoc (except nu (lying i

Claridon hill, 050 feet above Luke
Erie, silling serene among her sis
tere, and looking- benignly across to
the spires and towers of the more
popnloua but less exulted Chardou,
listens, amid her apple orchards, her
maples and branching elms, with
placid matronly surprise, to the tales
which an occasional pilgrim, like
myself, brings back of the land of
the bearer and the graahoppcr, the
land which, although only forty
eight hours by rail from here, al
ready seema roraaulically" distant.
And crcu yet, we have not become
aoaccu'stomed to rushing to and fro,
but that "a thousand miles" has a
somewhat awe-inBpiring sound to
the car. Genoa is Just 101 S miles
from East Claridon.

His constituent! will doubtless re
gret to give him up, but will easily
consent to yield the lcsBer to the
greater, good. There arc those of
ns who think that some time not
in 18S0 the people of the country
at large will be apt to claim an in
terest in him. And, what is more
curious, Bayard, on the other side,
doee not seem to have lost by equal
firmness. An eminent public man
once remarked to me. that the prin
ciple that be who loses his life shall
save it, was as true in politics as
religion. Whether he has since ex
emplified it in his own conduct, I
forbear to remark. Certain it is,
that our political history is full of
the wrecks of those who yielded to
please, and did not please those to
whom they yielded.
Turning from politics, let me ad
vise my Nebraska friends not to be
so much enamored of shade, in plant
ing their new groves, "as to turn
their houses into temples of obscuri
ty. "The sunshine is a glorions
thing" is a verse that I wish my
friends here had borno a little in
mind, in planning their houses and
setting out their trec9. There are
only two really bright rooms in my
dwelling. But the children seem to
think that nuts and apples make
ample amends.
Yesterday the interminable Ohio
rains appeared to have fairly begun,
but to-day is a day so bright and
gracioup as even Nebraska might
enjoy. Good days are eo common a
commodity there that we hardly
( appreciate them ; but here every day
at thip ecasoa saved troin cloudy
duskiness, ip a special treasure-
Allow me thifi opportunity of
saying good-bye to various friends
lo whom I havouot had the oppor
tuuily of bidding favewull in person.

isnof handy, wheal or oat straw will
&U6WC1', though not k lough. The
reason that rabbit? will not trouble
; it is plain, but the reason the borer
cauuot harm it needs explanation.
It is well known that the borer docs
little damage if the scasou be very
wot, ns the bark is juicy and drowns
the boier, or kill? the eggs, an soon
as they enter. The slough grass has
the panic ellect, by keeping tho
bark on tho bouth side of the tree
fresh and green. Without the grace
the uu parches the bark and has the
effect of cooking and making it ten
der, thus allowing tho borer easy
access. The objection to tarred pa
per and binding with cloth is,- that
it docs not allow a free circulation
of air. The slough grass is being'
used very extensively in this part of
the eountry, its good effects haring

The Talae efTiase.
The most profound mathematician
could not estimate the amount of
valuable time that is constantly be
ing wasted, and that, 'too, in a most
wanton manner, by both the young
and old. It id only a, to v late an
hour these spendthrifts of time begin
to see the folly of which they have
been guilty in foolishly "wasting so
much of their valuable time. Physi
cians have ascertained and determ
ined just the number of hours neces
sary for tbo needful refreshments of
miud and body, and for the healthy
continuance of thisifeyet how
many need or are governed by.thi6
allotment of timer for sleep? A
young man, if he goes to school'or
business, will arise at only Buch a
time as will allow him sufficient
time to prepare his toilet, eat his
breakfast, and reach in time his
school or place of business; and
this wanton habit is not confined to
young men. Yonng ladies, men and
women, all are guilty of wantonly
wasting their time. To sleep one or
two hours longer than is necessary
deducts just so much from the re
freshment wo otherwise would be
stow on our mind and body ; for wc
are benefited only by just the requi
site quantity of sleep no more. All
in excess of that quantity does the
recipient- no good whatsoever on
the contrary is productive of injury ;
for it weakens the body and ptupi
fies the mind. But -when we take
that only which. nature demands, the
body is "invigorated, and all-its po'w
cra "are renewed and invigorated.
Let those persons who are guilty of
sleeping late iu the morning, and
those who, when arisen, onlv idle
away their time, try, iust for an ex
periment, and sco how much can be j
accomplished iu a dav iu which net
I an hour, nor a fractional part of an j
