:UKE-EN()UGH WINTER.
Oeuuino Cold Weather Pelt In the
South.
licet and 8uow Were Plentiful
During December Some of
the Defects of tbe
Visitation.
J he last month of 1S96 is memorable
in the south, for the cold storm that
swept over the country and enveloped
everything in sleet and snow. People
tihivered before the heaped-up lighit
wood fires and talked as if they really
entertained the idea of building warm
er houses. Some sent oft for stoves to
warm the big hall and dining-rooms
(stoves that, owing to the prevailing
torpidity of labor and trade, got to them
lifter the oold spell wa over.
It was so cold that more than one sitting-room
door was shut and kept shut,
n fact significant to anyone familiar
with plantation customs, and it was o
cold that the sheets had to be rubbed
over with a warm iron before people got
between them. Even courageous, ro
bust young folks left the fire reluctant
ly when bedtime came, and hot-water
bottles, hat brick and flannels were
the order of the night. The carrying in
of huge back lops and front logs and
great armf uls of fat splinters in all the
rooms was the order of the day.
The flocks of guineas took refuge in
thick orange trees and stayed there, re
fusing to be coaxed down, even by, the
most liberal spread of peas and corn on
the snow below. Mocking birds, and
poor, bewildered little thrashers and
sorrows flew in under the piazzas for
shelter, and their natural enemies made
no effort to disturb them. Up by the
cattle sheds and the sheep folds, remote
from the houses, queer tracks would be
seen in the early morning, imprinted
by shy woods creatures, which, startled
by the abnormal condition of things,
sought strange companionship. Do
mestic servants known to be. of slim
proportions assumed unfamiliar stout
lies as tho thermometer fell. ;
"How maaiy frocks have you got on
to-day, Maum Eve?" that trusty .maid
servant would be asked, with a compre
hensive glance at the layers of dress
bodies that refused to fasten, over her
chest.
"I'se cold, chile! cold all through!"
grasping helplessly at the. refractory
buttons. "Last night it look like every
t!ng on. do whole yearth, would freeze
jam up 'fore morn in', I never sleep
none 'tall; jest lay down een de bed and
hear de trees crackln' and strainin' and
...... r. A.. ..,wlU
niltl'l'lll. lIL UUU CTH U7 DWtlVi .'Will
like some strong-handed someting was
going through there 'stroyin' of 'em."
There was a ieavy rain, then' a freeze,
then snow, itheni another freeze, and
during the three day before things
commenced to thaw out the country
had a curiously unusual aspect. A hush
seemed to settle down over tlve land as
if something portentous had happened
or was aoiit to happen. Scarcely any
travelers were abroad on the roads, and
over all the big, Hat fields nothing was
to be seen but the dead white level of
snow and the plumes of smoke curling
upward from the negro cabins. The few
leople who dUl. any visiting-s went
wrapped up to the ears, and provided
with every safeguard against getting
rold. When the negroes ventured forth
they were bundled up nimazingly,.ftnd
hud 4kU manner of woolen strips ban
daged round ankles and wrist and head.
Out. in the wood no usual sounds wwe
to be heard. Nothing stirred', neither
flutter of bird nor chirp of insect. Even
the chattering crows were chilled into
siliMice. The forest pat.lui wer abso
lutely untrodden by manor beast. Not
n sign of life was to be seen, not
glimpse of a rabbit or squirrel r chip
munk i only the vast, unbroken quiet,
Kve when Dome overburdened bough
crashed to the ground. Ono walking
there felt like a pioneer in a strange
country, the most familiar nooks seem
ing cast in a different mold. Great lam
entations go up for the wrecked and
broken trees.
"The live oaks on my place are mined,
and I'll never live to see others take
their place," says one cotton grower,
and another reports that his fig trees
are killed and the ningnolias in the front
garden bruised and battered. All the
tree with thick foliage have mifTaml;
theirs was literally a weight of woe
that they could not withstand, each leaf
a crusted icicle.
It was too cold for hunting, toooold
for riding, too cold for sewing, piano
playing, or any kind of occupation that
would take ono away from the fire. , It
was almost too cold to read; jut it was
a capital time to pull molasses candy,
pop corn, pet the children, and do any
thing that amounted to nothing.
"I thought that roues grow out of
doors down here in December," protest
ed n northern visitor in South Carolina,
"but I never was so cold na this in Mas
sachusetts. I'ileon that big light-wood
knot, Sn.tuho. I love to see f. hlnze,
even though it makes nie back out Into

BLUE BLOODS.
Foand Among the Rabid AnarchUt
of Knrope.
Strange though it may appear the
niost irreconcilable revolutionists and
republicans are those who have blue
blood in their veins. There is in Au
tria no more advanced socialists than
Prince Aloys Liechstenstein, who is a
member of the sovereign house of
Liechtenstein. In Russia nihilism and
anarchy may be said to have been
founded by the late Michael Biikou.
nine, the head of one of the most il
lustrious and ancient houses of the
great Muscovite aristocracy. Since
his death his place has been taken by
the equally blue-blooded Prince Krapot-
kine and Prince itakashidze.
In Italy dukes and princes by the
score are to be found among the lead
ers of the socialistic movement, while
in France there are few who either
from a political or from an eco
nomic pc'nt of view are more advanced
than Marquis de Rochefort-Lucay orthe
duke of Dino, a member of the cele
brated house of Tailyrand-Perigord.
Finally in England those who to-day
profess the most republican doctrines
and subversive theories are Henry La
bouchere, nephew of the late Lord
Taunton; Hon. Philip Stanhope, broth'
er of the present earl of Stanhope, and
tha earl of Lovelace, grandson of Lord
Byron. Lord Lovelace, it may be said,
Is not merely a theorist, but has put
his principles into practice, working,.
like Count Tolstoi, with a pick and a
spade, just as if he were an ordinary
laborer. His elder brother, the late
Lord Ockham, entertained the same
convictions, and, in spite of his being
possessed of considerable wealth, de'
serted club and society and spent the
last ten years of his life under an as
sumed name, toiling as a shipwright at
Deptford, where he was renowned
among the laboring population of that
suburb of the metropolis on account of
his phenomenal physical strength.
On the other hand, Mr. Joseph
Chamberlain, who while mayor of Bir
mingham publicly professed republic
anism, occupies to-day a seatinatory
cabinet, is the declared foe of the lib
erals, and the ministerial favorite of
the sovereign and of the prince of
Wales. Then there is Rt. Hon. Anthony
Mundella, whose father was sentenced
to death in Italy as a carbonaro, and
who himself was converted from rabid
republicanism to ardent loyalty by
a kindly remark of the prince of Wales
and a particularly gracious smile from
the princess. Philadelphia Press,
FRIEND OF THE TREES.
Honor to Robert Donsrlas, taePleaeet
American Horticulturist.
Few men in America have ever been
more esteemed for brilliant services to
horticulture, or more beloved by his
fellows for his amiable qualities, than
Robert Douglas, of Waukegan, 111., who
was found dead in his office chair on the
1st of June. He had had a paralytic
stroke a month before, but seemed to
have measurably recovered, and main
tained his active Interest in every good
work about him to the last. He was
born in Yorkshire, In England, but
from early life had a passion for gar
dening. Even when an apprentice to a
tailor he closely cultivated a 20-foot
square lot of ground, and was warmly
interested in matters connected with
natural history, in which a love of birds
was especially prominent. He first
ciitue to Canada, then to Vermont, final
ly settling In Waukegan. He was very
fond of traveling, and was one of the
first to mnke an overland trip to the
Pacific by the Humboldt River route.
America owes him a debt of gratitude
as being the first to show that ever
greens could he raised as profitably in
the new as in the old world. He was
also the first to know the great value of
the western catalpa, catalpa speciosa,
for timber, and the first to prove, by
actual experiment, that forestry plant
ing could bu mtide profitable in Amer
ica. The superior hardiness of the Col
orado form of the Pacific species of
oouifcra, which knowledge has been
worth many thousands of dollars tc
Colorado, was the result of his close ob
servation and intelligence. No one
connected with horticulture in Amer
ica has ever passed away with such
widespread regret. No one will ever be
more keenly missed by a wide circle of
'riends. Median's Monthly,
