I IDELES TRIMi. A party of three were walking in the garden. Madame Fanshawe came first She was a little old lady, and would have made you think of a fairy, with her gold headed cane, her glittering puffs of white hair, her black eyes, bright as diamonds, her long hooked nose, her sharp curving chin. The young lady with her had'a face like so nie ricn-hued tropical flower; the lips scarlet and sweet; the lovely dark eyes shining. She had a yellow rose in her black hair and another at her belt.

The third was. a gentleman about twenty-eight, rather.pale, but very handsome and haughty looking. The three had just left the breakfast table, and came out together for a stroll in madame's lovely rose garden. The young gentleman was madame's son the young lady was her adopted daughter." The son by blood, and the daughter by adoption, were to.be married in a few weeks. Madame was not pleased that it should be so, but was his own master; and, after all, though she did not know who her parents were, Idele was a girl to' be proua of.

So she submitted with seeming good grace. Madame the first to discover, that something, unusual and strange in the path ahead of them, and- hastening on, with the aid of her gold-headed staff, reached it before the others, who were gazing into each other's eyes, came up, What madame had discovered 'was the hody of a youth of-perhaps fourteen, ter? ribly deformed, but having a beautiful face and fair, curling He was clothed in a gay velvet, suit, trimmed lace, and wore scarlet hose; and handsome shoes with shining buckles. He lay upon his side, ana a knife was sticki cg'in his back, whose curved handle, of silver proclaimed it to be no common weapon. Close.by was a summer house over frown with roses, honeysuckle and sweet riar. Madame bent down to" loot closer; then she uttered a scream and started "Philip!" cried.

"Philip, come here. It is Cock Bobin some one killed him. Look at the knife in his back!" Philip Franshawe stepped 'quickly be? tween the girl he loved; and that ghastly sight. 'But some fascination drew. Meie for? ward.

She looked once. It was enough. With a stealthy, shuddering movement her white hand crept, first to the flower in her hair, then to the one at her belt, and tearing dropped them, in The real name of the murdered boy was Bobby-Reese; but some one had dubbed him Cock Bobin one day, and the name had stuck to him. He was what is called half-witted, and was the only child of favorite servant of Madame, Franshawe'a. He was.

sort of pet with madame; one of whose whims it had been Jto deck him in such finery as this he wore now. "You had better go into the hou.se, mother," said Philip; "yoit and Idele, and send Biddie to him. This is no place for you." "Who is to tell hia. mother?" cried madame, shrilly. "Nora-U go mad-?" "Tell her yourself.

she is now. She has missed him." A woman' was coming towards them with her apron to her eyes. She was crying. "I can't find my little lad, madame," she soon as she was near enough. "His bed's not been slept in all night.

I'm sore troubled for the boy." And then, as both Philip and Madame Fanshawe stepped between her and poor slain Cock Robin, she caught a of his blue velvet jacket and un'g herself, past them like a mad crea? ture. turned and ran suddenly! from the sound of those'frightful screams, going straight to her own room and locking her? self in. -She had not been there long when Fanshawe came. "Let me.in quickly, Idele," she called, in an imperative tone, "Imnatspeak with you do you hear?" Idele opened the Her hair was tumbled, her eyes She was trembling. "Did you wish to speak to me, Mad? ame she looking down.

And then Madame Fanshawe pulled something out of her pocket and flashed it before her. It was a string of carbuncles, bead joined to its'fellow by a golden Idele glanced at them indifferently. "I had not missed them," she said. "Where did you find them Madame advanced into the room and shut the door. "I found them in the summer house near which poor, murdered1 Cock Bobin lies," in a shri.U.

whisper, and smiled to see the fio wer dike face blanch at the words. "No one knows where I found them. Go away at once. Leave my house without seeing Philip again, and hide yourself from him from this day, and I will keep your secret. Stay and I will publish it to the winds and help hunt you to your doom." "And only yesterday," quivering lips, "this morning, even, called me daughter "But never let you call me mother.

I am glad of that now." "Madame, him Aaughtity.1 Madame tossed the chai of carbun? cles ujjon a-dressing-tabler "I have warued.jF?tt," she said. "Stay at your peril. Exchange but one word with Philip, and I will-very soon let you know what X. believe." She left the room. It was no part of madame's plans that Idele should really be suspected.

She only wanted to separaterer from Philip. When she found her room vacant; she concealed her absence at first on a pre? tence of illness, and then after a- time gave out that she-had gone to visit a rel- i of her own. Philip, however, had to be told some? thing nearer the truth. So she told him where, she found the string of carbuncles, and how Idele looked when she shewed! them to her. But not a word more.

is very strange," said Philip, won deringly. "I shall scold her well for having kept secrets from me, when I' find her." "You will never marry her after this?" madame asked, with looks of horror. "Why not?" "She must know something aboutthe killing of poor Cock Bobin. Perhaps she had gone to the to meet a lover, and the boy saw "What do you mean, "I never thought she was so much in love with you as you with her." Philip's eyes flashed. "I will search the world over but that I will find her," he said.

Madame leaned on her gold-headed cane, and looked at it with a grim "Find her if you can," she thought, but did not say. Tb.ee years passed. Philip had sought in vain for Idele. The mystery of her disappearance, and the mystery of who killed poor Cock were mysterious still. One night a gang of desperadoes tried to rob Fanshawe Hall.

They had got into the house, and were trying to get the door of the plate closet open, when Nora Beese, who slept near, heard them and went, as still as a mouse, and waked her master and some of the men servants. The robbers had got inside the plate closet, and were piling the silver, into a bag they had brought with them, when Philip and bin men burst in upon them. A general rush and. scramble followed, and some shots were fired. The villains all escaped but one.

He was wounded, but would scarcely have got away if he had not been; for Nora Beese had sprang upon him at first, and clung to him like a wild cat. "It's the man that killed my Bobby, and I know it she screamed. The roan fought her a little at first, but when she said that he stopped, and lean? ed against the wall, gaspiag and starting with staring eyes, while the blood fell from his wound upon the floor. "What do yon mean?" heasked. "How do you know I killed him "I heard, the others call you Carlo, and Carlo was on the knife.

I know it was you!" "Doyou mean that truly?" he said. "Yes, I did kill him. I'll own up, for I believe I'm dying myself-now." Philip Fanshawe sprang forward and caught bim as he was falling, and they laid him gently down upon the floor. "It was the crudest tfcing I ever did," he went on in a regretful tone. "It was," saia Philip, sternly.

"Why did you kill him The man stared at Philip. "Why, you're the fellow Idele was to have married," he said. "Do you love her yet?" "I shall love her till I die!" Philip an? swered, setting his lips. "What were you to her?" "I belonged to the gypsy band who stole her from her father's house a babe. I was present when the madame took a fancy to her, and paid the band money to give her up to her.

When I heard she was going to marry yau, I thought I saw my way to make some money. I pretended to be her father, and got her to meet me in the summer-bouse that' night, and talk it over. She didn't be? lie ve me, but she said she would think about what I said. And then she picked some yellow roses, and told me if I pass? ed next morning, and saw her wearing I might know she. still refused to believe me.

"After she had gone I went out and found the boy there listening, and I kill? ed him, partly in temper, partly because I was afraid he would tell what he had heard. Poor sight of that dead boy convinced her I had told the truth, or-I would not have killed him to keep it from being known; and she fled from him to avoid betraying the man she supposed to be her father." "Do you know where'she is now?" Philip asked, his face darkening in spite of him. is living with her own mother- as lady's companion. Her mother is the of Lord TuJliveK They afe fond of each, other, but they do not guess the truth. They are at Tulliver's Park in Yorkshire now." Such was the substance of Carlo's story, omitting the many interruptions, the long pauses, caused by his weak and dying condition.

"I always- liked you my You -know I was as fond of you as I could be till Philip wanted to marry you," she, said coolly to "But I had.follow? ed you to the summer-house that night, and Cock Bobin was nft the only listener' there.

Tilden's was mentioned recently that the large majori? ty of Democratic of Congress would be strongly opposed to any reopen ipg of the electorral count; Probably as large if not a larger number, are op? posed to any idea of making Mr. Tilden the nominee in and Mr. Mills of Texas, in what he -said- on the floor of the House on Friday last represented that sentiment. very prominent pub? lic man, and a very personal friend of Mr. Tilden, said in conversation with your correspondent that the trouble with Mr.

Tilden, was that' he was indecisive, and that' he was not a hero. He had been taken up by the people because he represented the great principle of re? form. He had been elected ou that plat? form, and it was his misfortune that he lacked those qualities which would have enabled him to seize' the victory he had Another gentleman, one of the Democratic counsel before the electoral commission, says that nothing could have kept Mr. Tilden from the Presidency had he only publicly, early in the winter, uttered the one sentence that he meant to have the office to which he had been elected, and expected the people to stand 'by him. Then Mr.

Tilden; in denying now that he. favored the, project of aq electoral commission, takes issue with one of his 'nearest friends who under? stood him to assent to -it. It is such facts as these which cause the wide? spread opposition in the leaders of the Democratic party here to any idea of the renomination of Mr. Tilden in 1880. Indeed, the Western and Southern Dem ocrats.are almost unanimous on the sub? Sun.

It would be curious to know bow many of your readers have brought fully home to their inner consciousness the real sig? nificance of that little word "billion," which we have seen of late so glibly used in your There'are, indeed, few intellects that can fairly grasp it and digest it as a whole and there are, doubtless, many thousands who cannot true work, even when re? duced to fragments for more easy assimi? Its arithmetical symbol is sim? ple and without much pretension there are no large a modest 1 followed by'a dozen ciphers, and that is all. Let us briefly take a glance at it as a measure of time, distance, and weight. As a measure of time, I would take one second as. the unit, and carry myself in thought through the lapse of ages back to the. first day of the year.l of our era, remembering that in all those years we have 365 days, and in every day just 86,400 seconds of time.

Hence, in re? turning in thought back again to this year of grace, 1878, one might have sup? posed that a billion of seconds bad long since elapsed, but this is not so. We have nol even passed one-sixteenth of that number in all these eventful years, for takes ju3t 31,687 years, 17 days, 22 hours, 45 minutes, and 5 seconds to constitute a billion of seconds of time. It io ao easy matter to bring under the cognizance of the human eye a billion "objects of any kind. Let us try in im? agination to arrange this number for in? spection, and for this purpose Pwould select a sovereign as a familir object. Let us put one on the ground and pile upon -it' as many as will reach twenty feet in height; then let us place num? bers similar columns in close contact, forming a straight line, and making a isorfc'of wall twenty feet high, showing only the.thin edges ef the coin.

Imagine two such walls running parallel to each other and forming, as. it were, a long street. We must then keep on extend? ing these walls for hundreds of still we shall be far short of the required number. it is not until we have extended our imaginary to a distance of miles that we shall have presented for inspection our one billion of coins, Or in lieu of this arrangement we may place them fiat upon the ground, forming one continuous hue like a golden chain, with every link is close-contact. But to do this we must pass over land and sea, mountain' and valley, desert and plain, crossing the equator, and returning around the southern hemisphere through the trackless ocean, retraee our way again across the equator, then still on and on, until we again arrive at our starting-point; and we have thus passed a golden chain the huge bulk of the earth, we shall be but at the begin? ning of our task.

We must drag this imaginary chain no less than 763 times round the globe. If we can further im? age all these rows of links' laid closely side by side, and every one in contact, with its neighbor, we shall have formed a golden band around the globe just 52 feet 6 inches wide; and this will repre? sent our one billion of coins. Suck a chain, if laid in a straight line, would reach a fraction over 18,328,445 miles, the weight of which, if estimated at one quarter ounce each sovereign, would be 6,975,447 tons, and would require for their transport no less than 2,325 ships, each with a full cargo of tons. Even then there would be a residue of 447 tons, representing 64,081,920 sover? eigns. For a measure of height let us; take a much smaller unit as our measuring rod.

The th'in sheets of paper on which these lines are printed, if laid out fiat and firmly pressed together, as in a well bound book, would represent a measure of about 1.333d of an inch in thickness. Let us see bow high a dense pile formed by a billion of these thin paper leaves would reach. We must, in imagination, pile them vertically degrees reaching to the height of our tallest spires; and, passing these, the pile must Btill grow higher, topping the Alps, and the Andes, and tbe-'highest peaks of the Himalayas, and shooting up from thence through the clouds, pass beyond the confines of our attenuated atmos? phere, and leap up into the blue ether with which the universe is filled, stand? ing proudly up far beyond the reach of terrestrial': things still' pile on your thousands'and millions of thin leaves, for- we are otily to rear the mighty mans. Add millions on millions of sheets, and thousands of miles on these, and still the number will lack its due amount. Let' us pause to look at the neat plowed edges of this book be? fore us.

See how ciosely lie those thin flakes of paper, how many there are in the mere width of a span, and then turn our eyes in imagination upward to our mighty column of accumulated sheets. It now contains its appointed number, and our one billion sheet of the Times, superimposed upon each other, and pressed info a compact mass, has reach? ed an altitude of 47,348 Times. The blue glass curative process, re? cectly so recommended, and almost for? gotten already in this has come to the front again in where Dr. Davis, of the insane asylum at Maid stone, Kent County, England, -reports some extraordinary results of his experi? ences with blue glass lighted apartments in the treatmeutof insane patients. On some of them effect was remarkably rapid, and on the third day all under? went a radical change.

Histerical girls, suffering from mental weakness and con? vulsions, after the third day gave no signs of either. Lunatics who constantly remained in these rooms, after three days asked for water to wash themselves, whish they had never done before, and they were astonished that they had pre? viously been so unclean. Raving pa? tients, who broke everything in pieces, after the third day expressed their sorrow I for their misconduct. Dr. Davis states that always on the third day, when i the critical moment of a change for the I better had come, the patient was affected with pains in the head, which, however, were transitory, and were followed by a cessation of mental and bodily ailments.

It is said that similar experiments, with like success, have been made in the health establishment at Berndorf, near Coblenz, Germany. A young lady of Raleigh-made all her preparations to new year's calls. When the day came, carriage after carraige- drove up to the door and then drove away without the bell being pulled, and it was nearly night before the lady of the house discovered that her husband had left the market basket on the front door, and that it contained about a peck of visiting cards. That husband is now bald-headed and broom? sticks have risen 90 per cent, jn Ealeigh market. A member of the Senate of Virgin? ia said in a speech pn Friday: "William L.

Yancey told Dr. Curry, of this city, that one of the greatest difficulties in the way towards a recognition of the Con? federacy was the fact that Jefferson Davis, of Mississippi, a repudiating State, was the head of the government. The re? pudiation of Mississippi has, therefore, cost us in Virginia the independence of the South." Governor Hampton has written to Colonel Lee Crandall, President of the National Immigration of Phila? delphia, commending that enterprise as far-reachiug in its scope and one that cannot fail be of great service. He Bays "it should be fostered by the agri? cultural bureaus of every State and Ter? ritory, and I shall endeavor to keep it before the people." Jersey Cattle. Last week we gave several instances of the remarkable yields of milk and butter from some choice Jersey cows in New England.

It must be remembered that this milking is done without the calf; for as soon as the calf is born it is sepa? the, tnother-? and taught to drink nfil? The finger is wet with fresh the hand is submerged under the milk in a vessel with the finger pro? jecting, and the calf being induced to follow the finger already thrust into his mouth, it is quietly and slowly drawn under the milk, and as it recedes the calf continues to suck, and presently drinks in the milk from the vessel. In a very short time the young calf is thus taught to drink mirk from a pan, which should be given to it two or three times a day fresh and warm as it is drawn from, the cow for perhaps a week, may be less time. Then a little warmed skimmed milk is -added, and twice a day this is given for three or four weeks, and after that time skimmed milk alone is given, and if it should be in cold weather the milk is warmed and a little meal or bran is stirred into it How different is this treatment from what is seen on most Southern farms It is an exception if on the average Southern farm the cook does not also milk. If the cows are too numerous for her; a negro woman is employed for that purpose, and many's the time have we watched them, as they would, with the inevitable pipe in mouth, go march? ing to the "cuppen" (cowpen) with the fumes of their savory pipe regaling the milk piggin, carried so skilfully on their heads. The gap will let down just low enough to make the calf jump into the pen with his mother, and at her he will go sucking and hunching his mam? ma's udder for several minutes while the ebony milkmaid the aforesaid pipe.

When "Suke? has had a few mo? ments of iru mi nation- and time to "let down her milk," splash goes a half buck? et of water on the cow's udder, and a sort of pulling at the teats and rubbing the udder to make it at least look clean; and then after a few moments of pulling at an already emptied and chilled udder, the cow boy is told, "turn in annader calf," which, as before jumps the bars, trots off to his mother, and goes thrrfugh with the same hunching process, till he almost empties the udder, before the milk woman- gets ready to him off." by battering away at his kness with a huge stiek from the opposite side of the cow. Any wonder, then, that Southern farm? ers require a half dozen cows to yield them an aggregate of a half pound of butter a day It is a general too, that should a calf die the cow is turned out with the "dry cattle," for. it is the next thing to an impossibility to get a negro woman to milk a cow without hav? ing the calf to suck first Of course, the policy of dairyman' is to get all the milk he can, and for this reason he separates the calf at birth from the cow, but allows neither to suffer from want of proper food and nourishment And any cow that is accustomed to have the calf suck her before milking will be very uneasy and hard to milk for a few days after being separated from the but with kind treatment and a plenty: to eat, she will soon forgot her calf and milk as -'easily as. if the calf were constantly with her. It would be impossible to produce a breed of cattle that were unexception ably perfect Some men want to grow cattle for beef.

The Jersey's don't suit them. Others wish to grow for beauty as well as milk. We do not think the Jerseys excel in beauty. The head of a' Jersey is. more like that' of a deer than like the Durham or Devon, and with their mild, mellow, good-natured ex? pression of countenance, as is shown by their they are as far back as the shoulder the most attractive of all cattle; but the immense udders alone redeem their otherwise ragged hinder parts.

The cows are almost always "good-har tured, kind and timid. The same cannot be said of the bulls. So far as we have been able to leara from observation and inquiry Jersey bulls are disposed, to be naughty. The finest Jersey Bulls we ever saw what in? nocent people would call, dangerous ani mals. Whether it is their nature so to be we are unable to say, but they are easily taught to be vicious.

Tfaev are naturally gentle and but if improperly handled they are very quick to learn bad habits. This much might be said, however, of all animals, and we have seen negroes who could learn, and indeed would make every, animal placed in their keeping so vicious that none but themselves could manage them. There is no reason, however, that such should be the case with the Jersey bull tuore than with any other. We have been asked latterly, Where can the pure Jerseys be bought? They are grown for sale at very high figures in each of the New England States, the prices we have always considered merely fancy. All farmers know that it will not do to risk transporting a gro.wn cow from a Northern to a Southern latitude, hence to buy a cow in any Northern State would be folly.

Calves, however, will bear transportation, and are held at fool? ishly extravagant figures" in New Eng? Some of the most noted' herders pretend to ask $200 on the farm for a yearling. Mr. Richard Peters, of Atlanta, Mr. Campbell Brown, of Spring Hill, Maury County, Tennessee, and another in Mississippi (whose name we have lost) are the only that we know of who. have and are paying much attention to the growth of Jersey cattle.

The Mis? sissippi herd came principally from Mr. Brown. Mr. Peters brought his from the North, and we are not aware of his ever having imported any direct Mr. Brown has some that were imported by Mr.

Waring, of Newport, B. I. His prices are from $60 to $100- for bull calves six months to a year old, securely boxed and placed-in the hands of the Express Com? pany. Heifers from $30 Last fall we purchased a full blood bull calf six a.onths old, and grade calf from Col. Brown, and the expressage from Spring Hill to was $86.75.

Little encouragement to buy. The same calves could have been from Boston to Chicago for half the money. The bull calf is out of "Oonan," whose sire and dam were imported from Jersey Isles. He is by "Top Sawyer," whose dam was imported, and -whose sire was from an imported couple. My neighbors say he is scrub stock.

So much for the looks of a Jersey bull Wyatt Aiken, in News and Courier.

He had previously received alike amount on the same service for twenty feet. He gets half million for each additional two feet up to thirty feet, and then $100,000 for twenty years to keep it up to that standard.

This is compound remedy, prepared with scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which rarely fails to cure the severest of Chills and Fever and the concomitant disorders.

Such a remedy the necessitlM of the people in malari? ous districts demand. Its great superiority over any other medicine yet discovered for the cure of Is, that it "contains no.quinine or' mineral, and those who' take it are.free from danger of quinism or any injurious effects, and arc as healthy after using it as before. It has been extensively employed during the lost thirty years in the treatment of these distressing dis? orders, and so unvarying has been its success that it has gained the reputation of being Infalli? ble. It can, be safely recommended as a sure remedy and specific for the Fever and Ague of tha West, and the Chills and Fever of the South, which, onco broken up by it, do not return until the disease is again contracted. The groat variety of disorders which arise from the irritation of this poison, such as Neu? ralgin, Rheumatism, Headache, Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Ca? tarrh, Asthma, Palpitation, Splenic Affections, Hysterics, Pain in the Bow? els, Colic, Paralysis, and desangeraent of the Stomach, all of which become intermittent or periodical, have no speedier remedy than Ayeb's Ague Core, which cures them nil nlike, and protects the system from future attacks.

As a preventive, it is of immense service in those communities where Fever anil Ague prevails, fts it stays the development of the disease If taken mi Uio first approach'of the premonitory symp? toms. Travellers and temporary residents lire llius enabled to defy these disorders, and fewi will ever suffer If they avail themselves of the' protection this remedy affords. For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity, it is an excellent remedy; it stiiiiuiates this organ into healthy activity, and many remarkable cures where other foil. Prepared by Dr. J( C.
