TLTE ON r.Y PERFECT SWIVEL BLOW. 
Walpole, N. If, April 18, 1878. 
HioGaTCM Mk’g Coup.:— Yoil wanted to know how 
I lilted the Charter Oak Swivel Plow No. Hill. I would 
stay that J have used it on all kinds of land, and think 
it the best plow 1 over saw or used. I have used seven 
or eight different kinds of swivel plows and this heats 
them all in doiin- good work, and draws much easier 
I would not exchange it for any plow I ever saw.

Alexander II. Stephens was so poor when lie 
commenced the practice of law, that, he had to live 
on $0 per mont h. 
Gen. “Dick” Taylor, son ot TTesidcut Zachary 
and a brilliant confederate leader during the civil 
war. died Saturday week in New York where he 
was visiting, at the aye of 53. Richard Taylor 
studied at Edinburgh and graduated at Harvard 
In iS5i; lie was for a lime Ills father’s private 
secretary in Hie campaign in Mexico, and 
became a planter in Louisiana-, ids native State, 
soon after. lie was the most fiery of seces¬ 
sionists when the times came, distinguished him¬ 
self in the Shenandoah valley and elsewhere, but 
especially In hla defeat with s,ono troops of Banlcs 
with do,non, near Mansfield, La., In May, isftl; and 
when the Confederacy surrended he was lleuten- 
aut-general in command ot the depart ment ot Ala¬ 
bama and Mississippi. Gen. 1 ay lor was a richly 
gifted, attractive and companionable man, so that 
he had very many warm irieuds; he. was brave, 
honest and enthusiastic, and a most conscientious 
rebel; he thought that he was a competent his¬ 
torian, and has acted accordingly In magazines 
and now Ln a book. Hut while death removes him 
from the temptation to write bad history, it also 
deprives tin* country of one of the brightest minds 
and best fellows It contained.
