Pritchard had at last caught<lb />on to the capers of Butler and Mott,<lb />and later developements prove the cor-<lb />regtuess.of the statements in my letter<lb />gt ti at Batneday that Mott went away<lb />leaving JeterTs rain-barrel behind him<lb />as a memory only.<lb />- But about Harry first: he had a<lb />wounded vanity to nurse: he had made<lb />a talk at the silver conference last<lb />week : it was in the afternoon, and was<lb />pronounced a spinner: it made such a<lb />hit that the ogreat men�. gathered<lb />about him and put him on the pro-<lb />gramme for a long speech at night.<lb />Night came, but no speech. Butler<lb />had grown jealous and had had Harry<lb />stricken from the list. ThatTs what<lb />first made Harry mad. Then he began<lb />looking about and found that Butler<lb />had elevated Mott to the Chairmanship<lb />of the Silver Committee to be resident<lb />hereinT the spring. ThisT made ~himT<lb />madder. But to be briefer, a running<lb />anaylysis will better serve the story.<lb />Mott had grown suddenly very excited<lb />gn silver, and had. practically, accords<lb />ing to my letter printed Sunday, cut<lb /><lb />| Wind-bag of Wayne is distinet and deep,<lb /><lb />| Whitaker put Dr. Wood, the brother<lb /><lb />rier owent 80° fur a8 to osay na i<lb />might have suggested the name of a<lb />man like Jarvis for the position to be<lb />[held by Mott, but this, of course, is<lb />ridiculous, especially in the light of a<lb />wise remark made to me last night by<lb />a Democratic Congressman from ~North<lb />Carolina namely, that the Demacrats<lb />should play ohands off,� fighting shy<lb />of the detestable and disgraceful broils<lb />of the unholy alliance. In this new<lb />Butler-Mott scheme are said to be<lb />included Russell, Loge Harris, Jim<lb />Young and others"that is if they can<lb />get Loge to stick. Harry Skinner was<lb />more Democratic than Populist in his.<lb />thoughts when he left here last night,<lb />andthe breach between him and the<lb /><lb />Now asto the other side. The.<lb />thoughts of Skinner have been the<lb />thoughts of others even before the an-<lb />nouncement of the Butler-Mott deal.<lb />The Wood letter has a history : ask<lb />1 Mr. Spier Whitaker will he deny writ-<lb />ing that letter? Did not Mr. Spier<lb /><lb />of the letter signer, in charge'of the<lb />Raleigh Asylum for the Insane? More-<lb />over, are not Wood and Whitaker cous-<lb />ins? In any event will Whitaker deny<lb />that in the writing of the Wood letter,<lb />his object was to create an anti Butler<lb />faction of the Populist party to be<lb />headed by himselff And dees not Mr.<lb />Spier Whitaker propose in his mind to<lb />deliver this faction over to the Demo-<lb />crats, in case they will make guberna.<lb />torial overtures to him? And doe§<lb />not Mi Whitaker know that many<lb />Demoerats would prefer even Mott, or<lb />anybody, a8 Governor to Whitaker ?<lb /><lb />These are questions called rhetorical, |<lb />not expecting answer except in the<lb />strangely peopled caucus of Mr. Whit-<lb />akerTs own personality. But the soul<lb />of Whitaker, thé person, will carry on<lb />a, whispered conference with the soul<lb />of W hitaker, the politiciap, ' ~when he<lb />thinks on these things, ar 4<lb /><lb />oSo that it may be<lb />that osmash� is the word<lb /><lb />fact<lb />the<lb /><lb />taken as oa<lb /><lb />now for<lb /><lb />the last straw that broke the camelTs<lb />back, and Butler is no longer roosting<lb />on the leader perch. |<lb /><lb />Jim Boyd was here lagt nightT fresh<lb />as one of EmersonTs Bromo Seltzers,<lb />bueyantas a soap-bubble, spending his<lb />idle time, as he said trying to be Gov-<lb />ernor, butin the main just practicing<lb />~aw.

The<lb /><lb />~main dist nection between iron and stecl, |<lb />)as mins. peo<lb /><lb />ple know, is that the Jatter<lb />contains carbon. The one is converted<lb />into the other by being heated for a<lb />considerable time in contact with pow-<lb />dered charcoal in an iron box. Now steel<lb />thus made is unequal. The middle of a<lb />bar is more carbonized than the ends,<lb />and the surface more than the center.<lb />It is, therefore, unreliable. Neverthe-<lb />less, before the invention of cast steel<lb />there was nothing better.T In 1730 there<lb />lived in Attercliffe, near Sheffield, a<lb />watchmaker named Huntsman. He<lb />became dissatisfied with the watch-<lb />springs in use, end set himself to the<lb /><lb />task of making them homogeneous.<lb /><lb />~t,� thought he, oI can melt a picce of<lb />dine and cast, it into an ingot its com-<lb />position should. be the same through.<lb />out.� He succeeded. His steel soon be-<lb />came famous. HuntsmanTs ingots for<lb />fine work were in universal demand.<lb />Iie did not cail them cast steel.<lb /><lb />That was his secret. About 1770 a<lb />large manufactory ofthis peculiar steel<lb />was estaijlisled at Attercliffe. The<lb />prectss was ~wrt pped im secreey by<lb />everyone within reach. True and faith-<lb />ful men were hired, the work divided<lb />und subdivided, large wages paid, and<lb />stringent oaths admijnistéered. It-did<lb />not avail. One midwinterTs night, as<lb />the tall chimneys of. the .Attercliffe<lb />steel works belehed forth, a traveler<lb />knocked at the gate It was bitter ¢old.<lb />the snow fell fast and the wind howled<lb />ucross the moat. The stranger, ap- |:<lb />parently a plowman or agricultural<lb />laborer seeking shelte? from the storm,<lb />awakened no suspicion. _ Scanning the<lb />way farer closely, and moved by motives<lb />of humanity, the foreman granted his<lb />request and let him in,<lb /><lb />Feigning to be worn out with cold and<lb />fatigue, the poor fellow sank upon the<lb />floor and soon appeared to be asleep.<lb />That, however, was far from his intéen-<lb />lions. He closed his eyes apparently<lb />only. He saw workmen cut bars of stee]<lb />into bits and lace them in crucibles in<lb />rhe [The fity Fas urged to itsex<lb /><lb />ite atee] wasimeltedi |<lb />Clothed in wet rags to protect them-<lb />selves from the heat, the workmen drew<lb />out the glowing m - [Mr HuntsmanT g<lb />factory had nothing more to be dis-<lb />closed.

Re-<lb />ferring to the abundance of small game<lb />in southern New Jersey, the item says<lb />that ~the dry season has been favorable<lb /><lb />inally wet, would have been drowned<lb />in the burrows, as Very many are every<lb />| year. Now, if this is true, it is impor-<lb />tant, for it has always been supposed<lb />that there were no rabbits native to<lb />this country, the only rabbits we ever<lb />see here being the tame ones of the<lb />fanciers, which originated from im-<lb />ported stock. What are popularly<lb />known as rabbits in this country, the<lb />~ecottontailsT of the brush patches, dry<lb />swamps, and bushy plains, the little<lb /><lb />youthful trapping and snaring forays,<lb /><lb />animal does not burrow or live in bur-<lb />rows.<lb /><lb />called rabbit had been a subterranean<lb /><lb />would not ~be as fertile in resources as<lb />it is and as it has to be to escape the<lb />pursuing fox, its persistent and crafty<lb />enemy, and the still more persistent<lb /><lb />For if it were a burrower it would, like<lb />all burrowing animals, be never far<lb />from,home, and would hasten to its<lb />underground refuge. arty. disappear at<lb />the first sound or sight of danger.<lb />oWho, with memories of exhilerating<lb />November mornings, when he has stood<lb />on a runway waiting for the hounds to<lb />fetch round to him the fleet game they<lb />have started, and has heard their music<lb />fade away as the chase went afar, and,<lb />after a long time, heard it coming back<lb />again, faintly at first, growing louder<lb />aud lor der as the distance grew up, nu-<lb />till at last the frightened bunny came<lb />bounding into sight ahend of it to meet<lb /><lb />his fate, can believe that this verile<lb />little creature is 4 common, lorry bursa<lb />i rower? If he has taken to the burrow<lb /><lb />In southern New Je rscy, to lie there<lb />while the water comes in and drowns<lb />him, he is a degenerate.<lb /><lb />oThe rabbit burrows its home in the<lb />ground. The hare fashions its home in<lb />bunches of tall, dry grass or beneath<lb />the shelter of a thick bush, and its nest<lb />is called its ~form.T The rabbitTs young<lb />are born with their eyes closed, like<lb />puppies. The eyes of the hareTs little<lb />ones are wide open the moment they<lb />are born, and bright and watchful eyes<lb />they are. The rabbitTs young require<lb />a motherTs care for nearly a month be-<lb />fore they are able to care for them-<lb />selves, six days of which time they are<lb />helpless and blind. The young hare<lb />scorns its motherTs protection when it<lb />is six days old, and goes hopping away<lb />to see the world on its own account. I<lb />have come upoh young hares not much<lb />bigger than a rat, which have bounded<lb />away with a briskness aed evidence of<lb />strength and independence equal to<lb />full-grown ones. It is true that our<lb />miscalled native rabbit will frequently<lb />seek the burrow of a woodchuck or<lb />other hole ih the ground when hard<lb />pressed, with the same instinct for safe-<lb />ty that prompts him to creep under<lb />brush piles and nestle there, or into the<lb />depths of stone walls or the hollows<lb />of stumps and trees. But he is ever an<lb />outdoor dweller, brisk and alert. Even<lb />the great jack rabbit of the far west<lb />is not arabbit. If he were there could<lb />not be the periodical round-ups which<lb />the people afflicted by the presence of<lb />thisT pestiferous animal make of his<lb />kind te slaughter them by thousands,<lb />for thenT he would live in burrows, to<lb />which he would naturally betake him-<lb />self in time of danger, and no corral<lb />could ensue. The jack rabbit is simply<lb />an overgrown hare, and no credit to his<lb />family. |<lb /><lb />oIf: this plentiful small game that<lb />abounds in New Jersey lives in burrows,<lb />as alleged, it is the rabbit, sure enough,<lb />and it is the first place in this country<lb />that I ever heard of where the true wild<lb />rabbit could be found, Consequently<lb />it id important, if t trye.�s N.Y.
