In the morning the hew president of the society, Mr. W. S. Brooke, delivered the annual address, in which he said the display surpassed thelr ex- pectations. The county is making more rapid Strides in the reclamation of w the improvement of stock, and in fact, evel (hing that pertains to the scientific and suce¢ ful prosecution of the calling of agriculture, than any other county in the state. Judge Boute followed Mr. Brooke, remarking: “The trouble tn agriculture is that you do not fake enough care of the farm bables. They grow up In the idea that the sooner they get away from the farm the better. Farmers, thiak- ing of their own struggles in farm life, tmagine hey will give their children an easy way ot get- Ung a living. That 1s wrong.

NARRAIIVE OF THE WRECK BY ANOTHER OF THE SURVIVORS, A telezrapn to the + Sunday Hera’, from Jacksonville, Fla., Sept. 11, says: Another of the survivors from the lost steamer Vera Cruz has arrived here. His name 1s John Connell. He says he was employed as a coal passer. Thegale which wrecked the vessel, he main- tains, commencedon Friday, August 27, early in the morning. He tells the story in this Way: “I was in the fire room asleep and did Not notice Captain Van Sice or his officers, but stayed where I belonged. The port side of the vessel received the whole brunt of the gale. The vessel was wrecked Sunday morning. We sll left at the same time. I was blown off the deck of the steamer; managed to reach a tem- porary raft, but was washed off that and had to Swim for It, the best I could for two hours or more. Goton to another raft,on which was the second engineer, Smith. He could not swim a stroke, and as the raft would not hold us both, I swam out for another fragment which I clung to until I was washed ashore. The baker of the steamer passed me and hailed me, but he got swamped afterward. I sayed nothing. Ail! had wasa shirt anda bad one atthat. Mr. W. M. Lowerey, of New Smyrna, bought mea full sult of clothes and give me my board tllid left onthe Magnolia, Captain Cook, for Jacksonville. I was thrown ashore on the beach twelve miles below the spot where General Torbert floated ashore. Coal passers were not allowed to go aft, and therefore had no chance to know much about the passengers. Know Mr. 0. P. Siivio, the Brazilian. He is ashore at New Smyrna. Got acquainted with him aiterthe wrecx. He would not come with me by water. He said he would not trust him- self on the water again and tried to reach here by the mail car, but that he could not do, as the storm bad cut_up the track and washed away everything. There were only three of us from the Vera Cruz that reached New Smyrna— myself, Mr. O. P. Silvio and a young Cuban gentleman, who had his wife on board with him. They pa Bt separated somehow, and she was drowned. He told me had 35,000 with him at the time he left the steamer, but he lost that, and got ashore not any better off thaa myself. Theard his name, but I cannot re- member foreign names, He was a young man, only twenty years of age. The Third Richmond in the Field. ‘The Brattleboro correspondent of the Spring- fleld Republican gives some facts respecting Gen, Phelps, the anti-Masonic candidate for President of the United States. The “Amer- ican” party, which named him for President at Chicago, on June 17, demands prohibition, ar- bitration instead of war, the use of the Bible as a public school text book, and justice to the Indians. But {ts most prominent principle, and the one cf which Gen. Phelps stands as the most marked exponent, is Opposition to all se- cret societies, the fight centering on Masoniy as the most prominent. It was during his service in the south, “under Mormonism and slavery,” as he termed It, that General Phelps first ‘ saw @ connection between Masonry and politics,” and so convinced was he of “its baieful in- fluence” that he translated from the French a history of secret. societies, published by Lippin- cott In 1556. But he was brought into most general notice by harboring fugitive slaves during the war at Ship Island, ‘against the policy to which the government then adhered. ‘To justify his course, General Phelps set forth the impossibility of at,pnce putting down the rebellion and upholdin{ parent—slavery—and urging the equipment of 50 colored regiments. In reply to his requisition for arms for three regiments and his declaration that the enlist- ment of colored troops would end the war sooner than apy other course, General Butler ordered him to Cd his contrabands as laborers in making defences,which he peremptorily refused. to do, Saying, ‘I am not willl: mere slave dilver you propose, having no quall- fications that way,” and, throwing «ip hi3 posi- uon, he retired to his present home, where for eighteen years he has devoted limself to anti- Mascury. To Masonry he traces the cause of every political evil that can be named. I[t ts at the bests, he thinks, of the lengthened ctvil war which Masonic manufacturers in New England wished to last as long as possible. It 1s opposed to civil service reform, use the offices are monopolized by Masons, The church 1s a mere mask covering in Masonry, an infidel con- spiracy against the christian religion. “If Ma- sunry uses the Scriptures at all,” said he to the correspondent, “it is a8 a bait to the hook of beathenism. I belteve,” he continued, ‘that there are but two active parties in the country— the kuklux lodge of the south and the Masonte of the north—the first marshalling the forces of the democracy, the second the repubilcans.” ‘The Warfare 18 partisan, not national ‘Yes, he exclaimed, starting up with sudden energy, “the old issues are dead, and each party 13 50 fettered by secret obligations in its struggle for power that neither ts free to meet the future wants of the country.” General Phelps regards Masonry &#s an English institution and intensely aristocratic, and says that if either Gartield or Hancock, members of such an order, are elected, Americans will discredit their own institutions. He charges the republican gov- erpment with violating the constitution, wiich Prohibits the establisuruent of any religion. when It chartered a lodge at Washington, D. C. and in lending the Knights Templar camp equipage at Chicago. But he sees nothing good in democrats, either. ‘The general, as he leans forward in his chair in earnest talk and rapid gesticulation, im presses one that he believes liimself sincere in every word. Masonry has become to him tue one nystery which represents all that 13 not clear and open as the day, and all things hid- den he thinks must be vile. He is filled with an idea, and of that idea is willing to be the representative. He has no hope of convinciag New England of the truth of his views, fettered as he thinks it 13 in the bouds of the loage, bi Icoks to the west for the growth of his parc: So little dces he know of what the managers of his candidacy are dolng—if it has any man. agers—that he 1s uncertain whether an electo ral ticket will be named in iis own state. Bratticboro itself he considers surrendered to the mystic apron, and the First National bank, whose condition was kept so long ia the dar! be thinks tailed indirectly because most of fis Cflicers Were Masons, to become the ORIGIN OF THE HORSE-SHOR SUPERSTITION.—I0 the very Carly times, says a writer in Bildivin’s Monthly, among the Celtic race an effigy of the patron saint, 50 common in churches and tem- ples, was much used in the dwellings and work- shors Of the pcople, as so-called “protection” agalnst ill-tortune. The “glory” above the head of these fgures—which later was often rudely carved in wood and painted—was repre- sented by acircular piece of polished metal, to convey the effect of the shining halo or nimbu:, frequently seen in illustrations of the Virgin and other scripture subjects. Often this metal nitabus was of semi-circular form; and after figure itself had disappeared by reason of de. cay, the nimbus remained and was suspended in Some prominent place at the entrance door, or other point commanding view. The effigies in question Were not uncommonly seen by th: Side of the doo: way. In course of time the uimbus Was much Used as a substitute for the latter, and Was sold in shops for this purpose. The tradl. ‘on of gocd luck as embodied in the horse shoe theory, may thus be easily traced, sinc 1t became a common occurrence, in the due course of Ume, for the faithful adherent in the belt in charms and symbols, to adopt the horse- shoe worn to brightness, in the absence of any other, which he uailed over his cottage door. Heuce a piece of metal of this shape became associated tn the common mind with super- natural presence and care, fu keeping with the belief atteching to the original figure of the patron salut.
