From Governor Davids Address at the JBe-
loit Wis.) JR»Y.
There is another subject upon
which I feel called upon to speak at
the risk of offending prejudices caus
ed by an immemorial custom. I firm
ly believe that if there ia an over
worked and underpaid claas in our
community it is the wives of the
American farmers. I have reason to
know that the daily solitude and iso
lation of their lives tells fearfully up
on them, and that it will by the law
of heridity tell upon their children.
In examining the records of the
Asylum for the insane of Minnesota,
I was so much struck by the prepon
derance of farmers' wives among the
inmates that I asked men experienced
in sad statistics of mental alienation
what the reason is. The answer was
immediate. It is due to this very
solitude and isolation of which I have
spoken. I was told that as a general
rule their resources to while away the
monotonous influences which surround
their lives are far too few that they
droop and pine without murmuring
in their solitary and unsympathetic
homes, until
Care ami sorrow and child-birth pain
Leave their traces in heart and brain.
They entertain
A wish they scarcely dare to own
For something better than they have known,
And drift day by day until to the
surprise of all who knew the cheerful,
healthy and well-formed girl, the
asylum receives a jaded, haggard,
sullen nature, with no hope or care
for the morrow. I fear these words
may not to them have the force tha\
they deserve, but I know that many
women will instinctively recognize
their truth. The fault is not with
them. I is with the husbands and
fathers. The husbands do not do
enough to relieve their wives from the
tedium of their daily life. The man
goes in the evening to the store, or to
a worse place his days have their
frequent intermissions of visits to the
town he attends the caucus, goes to
the convention, takes part in the elec
tion. He days are an everlasting
tread-mill. The father of a farmer's
family has a son and a daughter—
both equally promising. In nine
cases out of ten a most shocking in
justice is worked upon the girl. The
boy is headed for the Presidency.
goes to school, to the academy—
perhaps through college. Hi sister
is kept at home waiting to become
what her mother is. She submits,
adores her brother John—thinks it is
all right marries the son of some
neighbor and puts her shoulder to the
galling yoke. The sooner that men
learn that the function of women in
the social state is equal in importance
and co-ordinate with that of man's
though it may not be identicle, the
better for every interest in this life.
From whom, before birth ensues, does
the child receive those ineffaceable
characteristics which will attend him
through life and into eternity Wh
after birth moulds the mind, charac
ter and morals of the child In near
ly every instance when the child
reaches that mature age in which the
father begins to take charge of him
his character has been fixed by her
who bore him. Can you expect a
perfectly elaborate character, fairly
balanced and attuned from a parent
who has herself been neglected, whose
vision has been narrowed, whose
functions have been dwarfed by a
system which neither philosophy,
physiology, science, humanity nor
Christianity warrants in the least de
gree?
Woman is not the satellite of man.
She is the hemisphere which makes
up the full, round orb of humanity.
She has its fairest features. Her con
tinents may not be so great, or pres
ent as commanding victories as those
of her companion, but they have that
without which man is but a hemis
phere—a half-made monstrosity in a
universe of harmony and beauty, des
tined
To sink darkling- In eternal night.
If I should be called upon to speak
the most important advice that I
could conceive, to a people who are
governing themselves, I should say,
divide equally the culture and educa
tion which you are able to give be
tween the boy and the girl. Le
them be what their Creator intended
them to be, equals in the great scheme
of life and being.

On Monday forenoon last a num
ber of trotters were being exercised
at the driving park, among them Effie
Dean, driven by the well-known horse
raiser, Alden Goldsmith. The horses
were trotting at a lively pace and
were all bunched in a heap, when
one of Effie's reins broke, and Gold
smith toppled over backward, and
every spectator expected to see him
drop from the sulky and be mangled
by the feet of horses behind. This
tragedy was prevented, however, for
Goldsmith, whose feet caught in the
front reste of the thills, recovered
himself and then gave an exhibition
of nerve that was most thrilling.
The mare, released from the re-go
straint of the taut reins, broke into
a run and flew ahead like the wind,
leaving all the others behind. While
she was going at this rate Goldsmith
crawled over her back until by reach
ing forward he could get hold of the
snaffle of the bit, and then lying up
on her neck he brought her up with
a sudden pull that carried her almost
perpendicularly in the air. was
heartily applauded by all who wit
nessed the daring deed.—Bondoui

THE MONTICELLO SHOOTING
W
A A I
E TESTIMON O E O S E
OTTIO
From the Monticello Times, Sept. 30.
Harry Gerrish was sworn and tes
tified as follows: I am 16 years old
and live in Monticello. was stand
ing in the door when Gordon and
another man were coming out of the
postoflice on the 14th inst. Desmoud
stepped up and struck Gordon as he
was coming out. I thought he struck
him about the neck. The blow stag
gered Gordon back into the post-office.
He recovered himself, drew his re
volver, stepped to the door and fired
at Desmond as the latter was step
ping back. Desmond jumped into
Brookin's harness shop and put his
head and arm out and fired, and
Gordon fired again at the same time,
or a little befora Desmond. Gordon
then stepped out from the door of the
post-office and fired again. He then
ran out into the street, and as he
was going Desmond fired at him.
When Gordon was nearly across the
street he (Gordon) firsd another shot.
This was just after Desmond shot the
second time. Mr. Dearborn then
came out of Mealey's store and ar
rested Desmond, and John Holler ar
rested Gordon about the same time. I
saw'Desmond pull his vest up there
was blood on his shirt. He was
taken away in a wagon.
Cross-examined: I thint Des
mond struck Gordon with his left
hand. Gordon was not attacking
him in any way at the time. Des
mond said something before he struck
but I don't know what it was. I did
not see Desmond until he struck the
blow. I thought he appeared angry.
When Gordon was struck I did not
move from my position in the door, I
stood there till I heard Desmond's
shot He was outside the door when
Gordon fired first. They were not
eight feet apart when Gordon fired.
Desmond was not quite to Brookin's
at the time. He stepped back after
he struck Gordon. Gordon had just
spoken to Mr. Overton and Alexan
der Mitchell who were approaching
the post-office, just* before Desmond
struck him. They were about fifty
feet away. Gordon was staggered
back past me when he was struck.
C. S. Boyd testified I have lived
in Monticello over 20 years. I was
in town when the difficulty occurred
between Gordon and Desmond, and
saw the shooting. I was standing On
the sidewalk just outside the post
office door. I saw Desmond come
out of the door at a rapid rate, fol
lowed immediately by Gordon. Des
mond ran into Brookin's shop door.
Gordon followed Desmond out of the
post-office to within six or seven feet
of him, raised his pistol and fired.
Desmond slammed the door of the
harness shop to, re-opened it and said,
"If that's your game—" and with
that, fired. Gordon shot again just
after Desmond's first fire. He stood
very near the same spot as when he
fired the first time. Gordon then step
ped rather in front of the harness
shop door, but still on the sidewalk,
fired once or twice more. Whenheshot
the last time he was about twelve feet
from the sidewalk. He fired for or
five times in all. When the fracas
began I was about five feet from the
post office door. As they came out,
Gordon came between me and Des
mond.
G. W Gerrish testified I saw the
shooting affair on the 14th*. Gordon
was in the post office that morning.
He started to go out the door. He
had just stepped out the door, when
Desmond stepped right along facing
him, and made a pass at him with
his hand or fist. The blow staggered
him backward, and his hat flew off.
Gordon recovered, drew a revolver
and fired. He fired twice in rapid
succession. I could not see Desmond
after he made the pass at Gordon. I
think Gordon fired four times. Gor
don's third shot and Desmond's first
were almost simultaneous—I think it
was Desmond's first. I stood about
four feet from Gordon when Des
mond struck him, and Gordon was
about the same distance from me
when he fired. I did not move du
ring the melee. I was outside the
counter, in front of the post office
boxes. I had seen Desmond standing
outside on the stoop for about five
minutes before Gordon went out. I
noticed him particularly. He looked
excited, and I tho'tight there would be
trouble. It struck me that he was
waiting for Gordon to come out.
John Holler went qut with Gordon,
Holler on the left.
The foregoing is a brief outline of
the testimony for the prosecution.
Timothy and James Desmond, broth
ers of William, were called by the
defense and testified relative to Wil
liam's movements prior to the affray.
Their evidence was concluded at ten
o'clock last evening, when a recess
was taken until 'this morning. The
examination is still in progress as we
to press.
—It is said that when a stranger
visits Louisville, a friend inquires:
"Seen the bridge?"
"Yes."
"Seen the canal
"Yes."
"Oh! then there's nothing to do
but take a drink."
—Peace is preserved in an Iowa
household by a long, withy raw-hide
hung up in the bedroom of the juven
ile portion of the family the hide
bears upon its handle, "Boys, please
be kind to your mother."
—There was never a man felt mors
completely sold than the one who
stole the traveling bag of a drummer
for a boot and shoe firm. He got
boots and shoes in plenty, but not a
pair.

A HVMX E O E E N
A New Jersey paper tells the fol
lowing story of Paradise lost, as a
warning to obstreperous lovers: Just
west ot the Paterson plank-road, near
Hoboken, N. J., resides William
Fulchler, a well-to-do florist, who has
two daughters. One, Amanda, about
20, has for a long time sold flowers
and bouquets on Broadway. She
was rather pretty. She met Philip
Cushing, who resides in Hoboken, and
does business in the Jersey Abattoir,
and they agreed to get married but!
old Mr. Fulchler had no idea of los
ing his daughter, as upon her depend*
ed the greater portion of his income,
her sales amounting to twice as much
as that of her sister and brother, who
also sold flowers. Finally, Amanda
told her parents that, unless' they
gave their consent, she would run
away. This so enraged the old gen
tleman that he locked her up for two
days. Finally he got her to give
her consent to abandon her project.
Things ran along very well for a
week, when yesterday morning Aman
da stole out of the house at daybreak
with all the clothes she could carry,
and started down the hill toward the
Elysian Fields, it seems that there
she was to be joined by dishing, who
was to have a boat ready at the
Elysian Fields dock to" convey her
across to New York. This was done
to avoid the recognition which might
come in crossing the ferry, as she was
well known. Mr. Fulchler, on get
ting up a few seconds after his daugh
ter had left, missed her, and, seeing
all her clothes gone, at once started
in pursuit He learned by a friend
that the girl was seen going down the
hill. He succeeded in tracing her to
the dock, and was within a few feet
of Amanda, when she saw him com
ing. Cashing, her lover, was in
the boat, and had just got all her
clothes safely stored away, when she
cried out, "Here comes father."
Amanda, seeing that she was cer
tain tb be captured, made a leap for
thegooat, but unfortunately she miss
ed her calculation and fell into the
water.
Then came a scene that was indeed
most amusing. Amanda being a
short, "chunky" little piece, she
floundered about the boat like a tur
tle, poor Cushing trying all he could
to draw her up into the boat, but to
no purpose. She would get one foot
in, when the boat would tip and out
she would go again. At last Cush
ing made a desperate effort, and the
result was that he, too, took a watery
bath.
In the meantime the father kept
calling for help, when a moving hulk
came and helped to rescue the unfor
tunate couple. Amanda, to her great
mortification, was wet, while poor
Cushing sat On his little craft, not
daring to venture ashore for fear that
old Fulchler
cwould
carry out his'
threats of putting a bullet through
him.

LONDON, Sept. 18.—Mr. James
Caird, who is supposed to be a great
authority on agricultural questions,
has just published some interesting
calculations as to the wheat crop of
1875. He shows that the fall in the
prices of wheat last year was follow
ed by a reduction of 330,000 acres in
the breadth of wheat, or nearly one
tenth of the total wheat crop in the
United Kingdom, and that there has
generally in other countries been a
diminished area of wheat. This year
the harvest in this country has been
three weeks later £han last year, and
its introduction to the market a whole
month later and Mr. Caird calcu
lates that, allowing for the surplus of
last year, little more than eleven
months' consumption will now have
to be provided for until the next har
vest comes round. This is 22,000,
000 quarters altogether, half of which
we have at home, and the rest must
come from abroad. From Russia and
Germany a liberal supply may be ex
pected. There is also a good stock
to be drawn upon in France, and the
farmers are holding back for higher
prices. Mr. Caird says the chief ap
prehension is in regard to the supply
from the United States and Canada.
"From that source during the past
three years we have annually receiv
ed between 6,000,000 and 7,000,000
quarters, or considerably more than
half our total imports. Should this
fail in any material degree, we might
be pinched. About 1,000,000 quar
ters of the old crop are reported to be
available for export at the principal
points of acccumulation in the East
ern States, on the eve of the present
harvest. In California the crop of
this year is reported to be short, and
is not able to afford more than anoth
er million quarters for export." He
adds that he has private advices from
Chicago to the effect that the yield
will be 25 per cent, short of last year,
and even a loss of a bushel an acre,
on such an immense breadth of Wheat,
would be a serious thing. The con
tinued warm weather here must be
very beneficial in giving backward
crops a chance of ripening.

E E A S E N
LONDON, Sept. 18,-^Yesterday
there was muoh elation at Woolwich
on account^ the successful experi
ments witljjp "Fraser" 81-ton gun,
which for the moment is the biggest
gun in the world, and, as its admirers
also declare, the best It is a modifi
cation of the Armstrong coil system,
in which a few long double or for
triple coils are substituted
several. short ones, with a forged
breech-piece. It weighs 81 tons with
out the carriage, which brings the to
tal weight up to 120 tons, and is near
ly 27 feet long. There is first an in
ner steel tube, rifled with eight grooves
of the ordinary Woolwich pattern,
and having a bore 24 feet with a pri
mary calibre of 14J inches, which is
afterward to be made 16 inches, when
the tube will have a mean thickness
of 4 inches. The inner coil is 10.5
inches thick and the outer coil 13.5
inches. There are five coils in all,
which are arranged to overlap and
underlie, so that each locks into the
coil immediately preceding it, thus
making the whole structure as homo
geneous as possible. Six rounds were
fired yesterday with powder charges
beginning at 170 pounds and going
up to 240 pounds,—the largest charge
ever fired from a cannon,—and pro
jectiles of about 1,258 pounds. The
muzzle velocity ranged from about
1,400 feet per second to 1,550.
After the first shot an extracting
rod broke offinside thegun and a small
er gunner volunteered to go in after
it. He was immediately hoisted up
by his comrades, and rammed in head
first, like so much ammunition, till
nothing was visible of him but the
soles of his boots. He had to go in
five times before he could tie a rope:
round the obstruction and pull it out.
It is supposed that the new gun
probably carry a half-ton shot 7 or 8
miles but though there are .already
guns which can carry 5 or 6 miles,
something oyer 2 miles is the maxi
mum for practical purposes. So that
the capacity of the 81-ton gun in
this way, whatever may be its full ex
tent, is not of much consequence. It
is expected.that it can pierce from 18
to 20 inches of iron-plating. Though
the "Fraser" is, for the present, the
biggest gun in existence, there are, it
seems, guns of 100 and 110 tons be
ing made for the Italian and some
other foreign Governments, and Sir
W. Armstrong has also in view a
150-tonner. Mr. Fraser, however, is
quite in the mood to keep pace with
the age, and looks forward to a 160
ton monster which will fire a 1-ton
shot that at a wide range will make a
fissure equal to that made the other
day in the Vanguard by the prow of
the Iron Duke.
