A Floyd county farmer informs the editor of the Intelligencer that ho never plants corn until the plum trees nro in blossom , And that the plan has not failed him for sixteen years.

Now York .tournnl , "Dr. John I' , Newman hail to light for his bride not literally , but mentally , and with the powerful weapons of win ning ways. Ho was a Now York boy not long outof Wcslryan University when ho first saw Miss Angelina Ktieign , n young lady of Saratoga , possessing brains a ml beauty. She was the preceptress of n largo seminary at Fort Plain , N. Y. , at that time. Mr Newman's heart went around several hundred revolutions n second when ho first beheld her , but it was not n case of love at first sight. Lie was a budding Mothodiat pastor , she n model for a score of young ladies , Neither could all'ord such giddiness. Two other suitors nought the heart of the beautiful Kusigu , and it may have boon the fact that spurred on the natural ly pugnacious Newman. The young minister had the physical advantage ever his rivals. Ono'of thorn was too ok ) , tlio other too young. The achool girls gig gled as they saw the three familiar faces day after day and evening nftor evening as they besieged the fortress of learning in an endeavor to captun the lady gen eralissimo. The sympathies of the school were about equally divided between the voungest of the trio and Mr. Newman. They made the old gentleman's life very weary for him , but ho straightened his wig and adjusted his teeth and followed his card to tlio reception room with an untcrrified air. Ho oonorally touml the B fa occupied by Mr. Newman or the young man , and if acowla would kill , the trouble in tlio Madison Avenue Congrcga. lional church would never have been. lint the old gentleman had money in his favor. The young man had small feet and centre-parting hair , besides n most delightful lisp. Mr. Newman's accom plishments outweighed those of hta rival in a great degree. When the throe suit ors sat out each ether with the fair An : gelina , as often happened , two of the party were crushed. The old gentleman toyed with the family album and the young gentleman felt of his upper lip. Mr. Newman and the preceptress exchanged - changed ideas which were Greek to the audience of two. Tilings could not thus go on forovor. The elderly suitor grow more and moro tired of the existing a Into of allairs , and the younger man , who wanted to marry partly for the sake of n home , felt his eyes fill as his scanty rctiourcos dribbled away. Mr. Newman felt his calling sure nnd smiled as the others inwardly atonnod. tJtMias Ensign , with her good heart , treated the trio with every consideration , but it was evident she had a loaning to ward the young parson. But the school demanded some little attention , and she j mildly asked each suitor to preserves nn armistice till after commencement day , then not far off. So evident wr..s the fight of the trio that the villagers watched the love conflict with great interest. Commencement day came and the people ple around llockod into town. The grad uates had been up all the night before putting on the finishing touches to their robes of purity. Still they looked fresh. The recitation hall was crowded , ns wore the anti-rooms. Miss Ensign , the fairest of nil the fair throng , led her pupils through nil the mazes of seminary knowledge. The piano duet wasjn mar vel , the "Maiden's Prayer" brought tears to scared eyes , and to this day the citizens speak with admiration of the valedictory. One of the committee , an unfortunate aspirant for Mies Eiuign a hand , andono who had married that lady'M dearest enemy out of pure pique , nroso to make the usual application of llattpry. Addressing - dressing the trustees ot the seminary , the gentleman said : "You muat lock out for your Ensign and not lot her bo carried off by nn old mann young man era New man. " In the laugh that wont up tlio old gentlemen hid behind a bonnet , the young gentleman shrunk into his collar , but Mr. Newman beamed without u wnnklo. Miss Ensign , who had disap pcarcd when oho heard what was coming , watched her admirers through the crack of n door. Mr. Nowmnn'ti heroic bearing captivated her and riviled the holt of lovo. lovo.Tho The climar cnmo nt the close of the exercises. Tlio fortunate suitor slipped out of the side door with the pri/.o , pro posed on the way up the street , and was accepted. The two unfortunate men waited at the main entrance , subjected to cruel hints and insinuating , smothered laughter until the seminary WAS cleared. Still they waityd for their heart's desire. The sun wont down and the moon came out. The old gentleman , hurt to the quick , muttered eoinothing voryiinconi- plitnentary to the young gentleman on the other side of the street. The young man was in no mood for such language , and ho moved ever to his rival and de manded an explanation. Ho got it im mediately. The Murqula of Quoonsbury rules wore utterly ignored in the discus sion that ensued. Having thus honorably won his bride the llov. Mr. Newman took her to Alba ny , whore ho was given hia first charge. Hugh Hastings admired the now parson and styled him "Tho Rising Orator. " The young couple next came to Now York , presiding ever the Bedford Street Church. They then trout to Europe and Mr. Newman - - man visited the Uply Land , of which trip - ho often speaks with pleasure. Return ing to Now York , Rochester University - gave him the title of D. D. Thou ho wont South to reconstruct the Mothodiat Church in Louisiana , Mississippi and Tex as. After performing great work ho was elected Chaplain of the United ( States Senate , and twlco re-elected , His wife " has shared his hard work with him , and a more devoted couple it would bo hard to find. They are childless. Dr. Newman's charge of the Metropoli tan church in Washington , whore Grant , Colfai. and Chief Justice Chase worship , , pod ; hia ministry of the Central Methodist church of this city , where General Grant followed him , and the trouble caused by - Ills taking pastoral charge of the Madison Avenue Congregational church , are all recent history. But one point in Dr. Newman's life is not generally known. During Grant's administration ho was sent abroad , partly on a confidential mis . sion for the government. During the , trip Dr. Nowirmn wrote elaborate reports on the increase of our trade with Jupan i. . China , India and ether countries. His entire travelling expenses for a year and a half amounted to only $2,300. Ills pay ' . was small something like $3 a day. . Mrs. Newman accompanied him , but she - was not his secretary and did not receive olio dollar of the exrenios. Whenever , the reverend ambassador got the advan tage of half faro ho gave that advantage to the government.
