The Mississippi Valley Cane Growers Convention in session at St. Louis this week. Their proceedings i be read i interest, as the pro duction of pure sugar anil syrup is a subject of universal importance now since the villainous adulterations will glucose and other injurious compounds arc growing i such ularni ing proportions. Severe penalties by law, and more extensive and cheaper production of sugar cane alone can check the growing evil. Tho Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution sensibly says: "Shops, schools, and email farms are the tilings that the Southern people most desire.

want shops in which to treble the value of i raw nmterial, schools in which to prepare children of al colors and conditions for citizenship and small farms ou which to illustrate what Southern soils and sun are capable of. The three S's constitute the best hope and reliance of the South." The Syracuse (N. made an excursion among its sub' scribers to see how many of them had read the President's Me.tstige published in that paper. I i i was made of Of these only 14 had read the message; 30 had glanced at it; hud real' portions of it; 108 hoped to get time to read it some and the rest had hardly nn idea of its existence.

Boycotting is graphically described in the New York Man us follows: a is the process known Boycotting, and i is i'ust taking 1 the place of the shilleliih and the bliot gun, among i of the Irish protest and resistance. It is species of social ostracism, enforced with the strictest severity in the i us we.ll as in the large concerns of life. The presence of a Boycotted person is not acknowledged by a word, a look, a gesture. Not only is there no intercouso, but no business is directly or indirectly transacted with i Nobody i buy his i a i his fruit, his garden produce, Uis horses, cattle, fowls, or a i ho 1ms to sell; nobody wil sell him a pound of meat, an ounce of flour, i gill of whisky or nn hours work. No one will give or loud him assistance in any way, and no money will tempt a man to approach his dwelling.

Under such circumstances a Boycotted person must stock his house as if he were going on an Arctic cruise, for otherwise, no matter how large his bunk account, he may stars in the midst of plenty. Even when supplies have be.cn procured from a distance, lie would load tlio life i a castaway on soiin; desert island, with the stinging consciousness that in liis onse solitude bore constant witness to the hate and loathing of every a being i in reach of eye on car. Governor St. John, of Kansas, states a tho negro exodus from the, south i i i Of 40,000 who settled in that state, only 500 are now receiving aid. More than ruceived aid they i arrived.

A correspondent to the flawk- describes a well in Missouri as follows: "I wish to i upon your space by offering to your readers a short description of a wonderful well or spring thnt linn lately been discovered near this place, said to contain groat healing properties.

And they tell me this is a daily occurrence. Mr. Chitham, the owner of the well, refuses to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of it. although he has several good oilers.

He says it is free to all ns. long as he lives; and if it has curative properties all shall have the privilege of its healing powyrs. Tune will tost it. M. F.

DM. A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune asks that paper sonic pertinent questions: 1. Who would be i by the changing of tho value of the silver dollar, so a it would equal the' value of the gold dollar? 'i. Who is to be benefited by a continued coinage of the present light weight i dollar? 3. What is tho benefit of a lijrlit weight silver dollar to the receivers thereof? Why would they not be as well off if the silver dollars were re- coined to full weight dollars.

Singular Case. The Chicago says the doctors are interested by a peculiar case on tho west side, at 85 Soeley avenue. Willie Crawford, Aged fourteen, son of Win. Draw ford captain of a tug boat, has for seven years been sweating ijlood nt times, and lately has had several attacks which alarmed his parents. His infirmity comes on him usually nftei taking cold.

Great black pntuhe appear on his body from which blooii drops the of a pin head. Blooii flows from his mouth, nose, eyes stomach and even from his bladder and kidneys. No pain accompanies these discharges, but they make his blood thin and weaken i Sudden fright or excitement will temporarily check the flow, He is a bright, and his father, mother, brothers and sisters are strong and healthy The physicians who have taken nn interest in his case, propose sending him to Edinburgh and London foi examination by the academy of geons. Abraham Lincoln, nctrro from Liberia, came to this country in search of it sister. lie was robbed of $900 in New York, arrested by the police nnd is now in the poor house at Amityville, Long Island, cogitating over hospitality which he (lid not expect in a country that sends out missioniirios to civilize his The Case Dropped.

Not even lawyer, however skilled in cross-examination, can makfi a witness tell the provided -the witness wishes to evade it. It is impossible to put question in such exact language that it will demand tho desired answer. Indeed, nothing is more true than the statement of Talleyrand, that language is intended to cover up one's thoughts, and no one ever practiced the principle contained in the statement more than Talleyrand himself. It was necessary on a certain occasion in court to compel a witness to testify as to the way in which a Mr. Smith treated his horse.

"Well, sir," said the lawyer, in a sweet and i i smile in tended to drown all suspicion as' to ulterior does Mr. Smith generally ride a horse?" The witness looked up innocently, and replied: "Generally a straddle, sir, I believe?" The lawyer asked again: "But, Sir, what g-ait does he ride?" The imperturablo witness answered: "Ho never rides any gain at all, sir; but I've seen the boys rido every gate on the farm." The lawyer saw he was on the track of a Tartar, and his next question was very insinuating. "How docs Mr. Smith ride when he is in company with others? 1 demand a clear answer." "Well, sir," said the witness; "he keeps up with the rest, if his horse is able to, or if not, he falls behind." The lawyer was by this time almost beside himself, and asked, "And how does he ride when he is alone?" 'I don't was the reply; "I was never with him when he was alone," nnd the case free Press. A DitEA.M FuLKJr.i.ivD--Last Friday, ludy wer.t from Bcvington to Winterset and on Conductor White's train.

Soon after leaving iho conch she discovered she had left her purse (in which there was considerable a of money) in the uoncli. A telegram was sent to Mr. who immediately jnnde diligent search, but could not find the purse. When the coach was turned over to the sweepers in tho yard on East side, they were instructed to took out for the purse. They thoroughly cleaned nnd swept the conch but saw no purse.

As might be expected the lady worried over her loss, and lost considerable bleep that night, but finally passed into dreamy stnto, when she snys she into the couch and found her purso at the end of the seat whereon she snt. The next when thojconch arrived hqr husband boarded it to got the purse. "It's no use," said the conductor, searched every place in the coach, nnd the sweepers liuve turned mid searched very sent in it; it isn't here." "But now just where it is; my wife found I htst night," said the woman's uisband, and precisely where she bund it in her dream was the purse. Conductor White's two eyes stuck out like a locomotive head light, as ic exclaimed, "Well, that bents me." --Mate Register. How Sain Houston was Admitted to the liar.

Bowyor Miller, a man of admirable character nnd education, when he had concluded his legal studies decided to establish himself in Tcn- icssce. It was soon after the war of says a correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune, nnd in visit- np; the circuit judges to obtain thoir jertificnte of professional qualification, he full in with Snm Houston fresh from tho campaigns of Alabama nnd elsewhere in the gulf state, in which he had accompanied General Jackson, nnd who had determined to adopt the profession of law. The young men were nt once canHdential, and Houston frankly avowed his own educational deficiencies and limited opportunities of qualifying himself, occupied ns he had been for the few years proceeding in the i of the wnr. "Miller," said he, "I shall tell the judges that needn't expect learning from me. We shall bo examined nt the same time.

It'a question of difficulty is asked don't be bashful; answer it. Leave those that arc more easy to me. I am not nt all jealous." Miller, who was very well qualified, was amused, nnd promised to do anything in his power to aid him. A i i at the residence of the first judge, this agreement was kept up. Houston invarirbly introduced the examination'by a narrative connected with the war, and with a jocular admission of his own difficulties in pursuing his legal theories.

A question having been asked upon the abtruse common law doctrine ol executory decrees nnd contingent remanders, Mr. Miller modestly repeated the exposition of authorities, and the judge amplified the reply with remarks upon the channel ol judicinl decisions. We arc not to suppose that the examinations were very technical or strict. At a succeeding examination, however, Houston in reply to a ques tion upon the the same subject took up the reply and repented the in formation he had acquired, and when they called on the Inst judge, Houston observed that the two preceding ex animations must have been satisfactory, nnd Judge White gave his signature and made the young man stay all night. Within two years from the time Houston had been elected either as state or district attorney, while Miller discouraged nt the prospect of professional success, returned to Viginin 'MARCHING THROUGH GEORGIA." Interesting Interview With General Shor- mail About tho Itlcirch to the Sen.

I called the general's attention to short that he had written to Captain Burke, of the Gate City guard, in which he snid ho had never ordered the burning of the city of Atlanta, "Of course that is truo," ho responded quickly. "The city of Atlanta was, never ns city. I notice that the headquarters I occupied, nil the houses about jt, nnd the headquarters of the other officers were all standing when I revisited tho place year or so since. The residence streets were not burned nt all." "It was your intention, thon, to burn only tho henrt of tho city." "My intention was clenrly expressed in a written order to Gen. Poe.

It was simply to burn tho buildings in which public stores had been placed or would likely be plnc'ed. This included ouly four buildings, us I recollect; not over five or six. One of those wns a warehouse nbove the depot, in which, or under which were of shells. From this building block of business houses took fire and the destruction went beyond the limits intended. The old Trout house was burned by some of the men jwho hnd some reason for i it.

I ordered tho round house burned. I wanted to destroy the railroad so that it could not bo used. I then wanted to destroy the public buildings so that Atlanta could not be used as a depot of supplies. I ordered, ns I say, four or five buildings set on firo, but as fir as burning the city in tho sense of wanton destruction, thought of such a thing. I shirked no responsibility that wns imposed, but never went beyond my duty." "How was you received when you visited Atlanta year or two since." "With a i courtesy.

I traveled over tho whole stale a I never hoard a disrespectful or insulting word. The people sweiiicd to bo hospitable, happy and busy. It wns very gratifying' to mo to eo how the scars of wnr had been rubbed out. The recuperation shown on all sidfts--especially from Rome to Atlanta, I considered wonderful. But if those people can only work as well as they fought I need have boon astonished ut i At Cartorrillo I was a i while the train waited with ox-Attorney General Ackonnnn.

There was a crowd collected around, and finally a frank looking fellow said; "Well, general, don't you i we have built up pretty well since you lel'tljs?" "Yes," I replied don't you think I left you plenty of room?" At which there was a laugh all round. So I found tho people all Georgia--bright, cheerful, busy." "It has been reported, general, iliat when Hood succeeded Johnson you snid, 'Heretofore we have been fighting where tho emuny please-now we fight where we Is this true?" 1 don't know thae I said that, first hoard of the appointment of lood fujm one of my scouts who had 'one i Atlanta with a lot of cattle, and had brought out a morning paper. As soon as I saw this I asked generals, who were his classmates at West Poirt, what manner of man was. They both described him as bold, headlonn- fighter, and said that we would have to be prepared all nloiifr the line for warm work. I replied that tluit was precisely what I wanted--thnt I did not caro to rush on to breastworks, but thnt whenever we were attacked we must fight--if we could only put fifty men against a thousand.

By the way, I mot Hood afterwards in Now Orleans, nnd we became warm friends. I am now the custodian of his papers. He was brave and gallant man." "When were you i of the success of your movement i Georgia "When I saw Hood moving up towards Tennessee I felt that the confederacy could not i After sending Thomas back to meet Hood 1 had 00,000 good men, and I knew that no goverinent could sustain itself with such an army as this marching about through its teritory where it pleased. When I left Atlanta for the march through Georgia with no army in my front, and Hood watched by Thomas in my rear, I felt that the end was approaching, looked back on the city, the As smoke made from the i of the yellow pine, hung like a pall over the scene." "Did not that lung march through Georgia breed strange senso oi' comradeship among the men who made it?" "That it did. It was a splendid army, too--better even, 1 believe than the army of the Potomac.

It was well disciplined, and orderly, and I think the people suffered little from depredations. I remember when we struck Howell Cobb's plantation the boys laid it waste. They felt as if they had a chance at one of the chief rebels and they improved it. But generally they were orderly nnd ab- stnined from wantonness and plunder. It is strunge, but when I sit on stand now in front of crowd I often pick out the faces of the meri who were with me in Georgia.

There is a quick, affectionate look of recognition that speaks to me as plain as words. If I am making a speech and happen to allude to any little thing thnt happened ou the march I can then tell the face of every man in the crowd who wns in Georgia with me. --We have received book entitled South-eastern Kansas, written by a of tho Chicago press.

They had a meeting the other night, and one of tho giris described it as follows: what the dickens kept you away from the meeting? We had the flyebt kind of a time.

She can't come such a i ij-ng on us as long as this chicken can shoot off her chin, you bet. Effie Sinclair musL be clear off the belt. She wants the society to soak a fine on to every girl who speaks to a fellow who uses slang.
