Hudson, iN. Y.i, M i.v II). Joseph
Walt, In his confession of having
miirdeied Hotelier, states that tho
deed was done about tell o'clock hi the
evening on tho Ilrst of May. Ho went
to the loom or Hatcher, whom h0
round asleep, and struck him with the
blunt point, and twice with the sharp
edge. He only groaned, and all was
over. Waltz, then took the body to
the stone wall, whero blood was Annul
and covered It up; there ho left It until
the next night, when ho took It down
into an orchard and burled it. Tho
olllcers having learned all they could,
they took him out to show where the
body was burled In tho orchard, and
a few inches below tho sm face tlio
body was round, wrapped In a blanket,
with tho head horribly mangled.
Waltz, also confessed to having burn
ed three schoo-hotises in the town,
and burled thu books, which have
been found at the place he designated.
When asked why he committed the
murder, ho replied: "I did It for
mischief and, not for gain; thu bud
spirit was in me, and I wanted to do
something bad,"
I r has long been known that Pro
fessor Agassi, wished to establish a
school ut which freo instruction in
natural history could bo given to
teachers during the summer months,
whon lltoy wero having vacation.
Willi it view of procuring funds to
carry out this scheme, ho invited tho
Legislature of Massachusetts to visit
his museum at Cambridge, nnd learn
his plan of giving instruction. They
paid tho visit, hut no appropriation
was made for carrying out the great
scholar's plans. Hut It chanced that
a lady who was present wrote u let
ter to the Now York Tribune, in
which she gave un account of what
Agassi, said of the importance of
this kind of instruction. This letter
was published, and next morning
Mr. John Anderson, the celebrated
tobacco manufacturer In Now York,
city read it. Then ho commissioned
two gentlemen to go to Cambridge
and to tender to Agassi, the gift or
Penelkeso Island, in Huz.ard'.s Hay,
as it permanent location for tho sum
mer school. Within a few days ho
added the gift of ..'i0,()00 for un en
dowment fund. The island contains
about ouu hundred acres and ios
seses many advantages for tho pur
pose to which It is dedicated. It hud
been purchased by Mr. Anderson for
a summer residence, and large sums
have been spent in buildings and
improvements. Tho property was
valued ilUO.OUO. Thus ti tobacconist
comes to the aldor.c!onec,und helps
the undertaking of a man who says,
" 1 cannot afford to waste my time
In money making." Hereafter, ev

It Is quite certain that where ma
nure Is not ono of tlio principal ob
jects of feeding, soillngand steaming
will not pay. In it section where
feed is abundant and manure Is lit
tle needed, the mere saving of food
will not pay for the labor of soiling
and steaming. It Is only where
laud i.s high and feed expensive that
there Is any chance of profitably
adopting the-so processes. And on
such land and in such circumstances
manure is a great object.
