Jnatioe Stephen ,1. Field recently completed a nepvice of thirty-four years on the aiipreme bench of the United Slates. He was ap|Miiuted and comminsiuned the 10th of March. 18li3. bnt with a touch of nentimont, not out of keeping wilh his character, he tiMik the oath of oflice and entered upon hin dntiea on the 20th of May following, his father'a eighly-necond birthday. He haa thiin aerved a longer period than anyone who han aat on the bench since it wan organized, except <'hie( Juatice Marahall alone, who aerved thirty-four years Ave muotha and six days. Mr. .Tustice Story was the uext longest in imiiit ot time, his term boing thirty-threo years nine months and tweiilytwo doys. Justice Field'ii profenniiMial and judicial life extendn over a period nf lifly six yearn. When he was ailiiiilted to the linr in 1841 all but one of his present assiaiiaten nn the bench were lutliea or lads at school. That one. Mr. Juatice White, waa not born. Four of thero at leant are young enough t<i have l>een hin sons, and une of them. Mr. Jnstice Brewer, is his nephew.
The Han Jose scale, which waa brought from Chile to California alxnit a quarter of a century ago, and which han beeu lately .lintrihnted among the nrcharda of Ihe Intern Statea by in leateHl nnraery nl<K"k, ia one of the moat dreailed and deatriictiTe enemies of fmit treea. It liaa at laat reacheil Florida, aaya tbe New York Tribune, and since the climate there is aup|xineil t4i l>e eajierially ailapteil tii ita tNinnti tution, its arrival was not maile known to the public until the Oovernment entomologist had satiiifled himself a» t« its identity.

A Ride For Life—And One Dollar. ||

UST a dollar short," said the dominie, counting.
"That's b a d," aaid his wife, ^v^th a despairing aigh. "Might as well Inok it all ' "Wliy?"
"Becauae. I don't know where you can get that dollar. The expreaacom¬ pany won't triiHt you, and they will send the package bm^k to New York"—
"But perhaps I can borrow it.''
"Where? Elder Tripp hos come to his limit—he t<ild yon so. The other church eldera and deacons are poorer than our old ratllebones of a hons, and Si Mauley, the only one with property in the whole congregation, might give it to you if you were starv¬ ing to death -, but to help buy me a now dress—never. Ho would die ttrst."
"Well, what's to be done? My salary isn't due for three mouths yet, aud in the meantime back it goea!"
".loshnay!" cried the disappointed woman, "that musn't happen. It's the first dress I've had in four years, and I have sot my heart on it day and night. I have saved those pennies by piecemeal, and have earned every one of them over and over a dozen times. Now, to have the prize come all the way from New York, oome to our very doorstep, and start on its long way back again jnst because the Methodist minister of Beverly hasn't a dollar and can't get it, that's what I call too bad."
The dominie heaved s deep breath, drew hin slouch hot down over his eyes, and went out of the honse full of mental calculalionn. He circled about the woodpile once or twice, went mut¬ tering through the parsonage garden, and the people who observed him thought the good man wan composing another oolnmbiad to hurl into the teeth of   thin   unrighteous generation.
That dollar Ihat miserable, paltry, all-nocessary dollar! Ho ha't, seen the time when its round- snd shiny iiiightinenn wan nn bigger than a miintard need; now it ajipenred to him about the size of the planet Jupiter, anil quite an iiiiu^cenaible. The good man'a heroic slave of a wife had never a||r|^ed for anything that the Lord and the flock of Beverly hadn't given her grudgingly all theae yeara, nnd now to be compelled to turn back the llrst aweet little messenger of joy thot had viaited her humdrum life wan like denying au angel ot heaven admittance becauae there ia nothing but bog and hominy to feel her on.
Suddenly tbere woa heard Ihe clot- ter of hoofs along the deaerled mad leading by the dominie'a bleak domi¬ cile, and then a rider drew np nlong- side the garden aud peered nliout witli hesitation.  iudilenly he espied the old man and seemed encouroged.
"Do you know where Parson Kil- dow lives, sir?" he asked ill the high falsetto of an overgr.iwn buy.
"Kight here," sai.l the worthy num, catching at a slrnw ua it a-ere. He came forward and o.ljusled his glasses, seeing a shiftless youth, barefonted, with troiraerH all potches and sliiit jill holes held together w-ith Ihe wreck of a single suspender, face grimy nml dirty, ".\iiother funeral away ii|i in the giili'h, I suppose," he mused.
"Bo you the dominie?" followed the boy.
"I am."
"Then come right awny. You're wanted up al Oan Sykes's to splice a pair."
The good man smiled, but it was o smile that does not warm. That dol¬ lar wan ever liefore him.
"Hurry up, or it will bo loo late " enjoined the youth.
"Too late for what?"
"For to do the ceremony. They'll go off and git some one else, aud you'll be out your fee."
For the flrst tune in all his life the Bev. .Toshna Kildow grew mercenory. With a wave of the hand he bade the youth wait a few monienln, then went into Ihe house lo get hia regulation' blai'k iMol. "We're sovc.l, Basheba, dear," ho sai.l calmly, »a if imparling good news were of hourly occurrence. "There's a wedding on."
"Where?" This was s|iiiken half nce|itii'ally, as il /die knew everylhing in that Illlil' world, that was or was to be. and iliiuliti'd his occiiriu'y.
".\way up ill the inoiinlaiiis, iiiiic miles frmi! here." he said brisltlv.
The fa f llie wi.iiinii fell, nii".l   she
went on with her taik with Impe ilasheil. She knew the mniiiitaiu folks- knew that among them dnllars were as scaai'e as pearls in an ash dump. They lived more like wild beasts in her estima¬ tion; and she run over the list of her husliaiid's prnbalile reward -o brace of ducks, a haunrh of veiiisuu. a pail of wiUI honey, or n l.usliel of hickory nuta-  lint nii.uey.  never.
S0.1H the reveren.l   reappeared from ambush, wearing the same oltlctal gar¬ ment that   ha.I expt.stulate.l   from  the pulprt, s|ireB.l its   liroa.l arms over the dead, an.l hel.l many a babe nl clirist I ening, and which seemed   si.   halntiia- te.l to these tasks now   that   it   woiil.l ; Bcarcelv have surpriseil the   g.Hid  folk of Bi'verly, if the ol.l   coat went   riuht on marrying ami christening and bury ing |>eople long after the good doiiiinie I had (lassed   aaay.

dreds besides, Ihe way seems diflicult indeed. The youtli jiiloled the man of the cloth over the mrky steeps ami through tbe terrible ravines without s.i much as a Imokwnid glan.e, au.l Ihc dominio was too much nlisorlied in the fulness of the hig rniinil ilollnr to give heed to the youngster. They arrived at last at the mnuiilaineer's iloiiiicile. which was pailiolly a dug-out and Bomewhol of a coraniodious hut, whose sloping roof met the iiiounlniii ngninst which it backed np for shelter, ami more to novo tho trouble and expense of a north woU to the Imliilalion.
The guests were assembled, nnd a motley crew it was. There were two men to every woman, and Ihe whole pnrty gave unmistakalile evidence of having been indulging in "iiioonshine" stock, for Iho ease with which whisky trickles everywhere from itincceasible founloins, in answer to Ihe magic rod, is something that is miroculons, even to auch men of fiod ns the dominie anil to the Oovernment revenue officers as well.
Every evidence of the indulgence waa gone, however, except, jierhnpa, the redolence of the nectar throngh tbe two-roomed shanty, which was lined with guests in nil degrees of un¬ couth and niikempt neglige. Sup¬ pressed merriment of rather nn uncivil¬ ized kind was rife. It seemed as if they were aliout ready to jiiniii in for a Virginia reel or a free flght, wilh pis¬ tols and knives, from arscnols of cow¬ hide bootlegs, and of Iho two onuise- menta, preferred the Intter. They had evidently seen the dominie coming iiji the mountain rood, hod taken Ihe sig- nnl of his pilot, and had secreted any¬ thing that might leii.l to bring down the wrath of the goml man upon them. They wanted Ihe ceremony over with, and the man officiating to get right out ofter the event na soun as jiossilile, so aa not lo disturb the liariuony of their playful golo dny.
Wit^i that praotised enso of the mnn who ia ever ot home in Iho cloth, the reverend odvnuccd into thcirinidst end shook han.ls with the bride, thegroom, the porenln, and ono or two others who were anxious to show their homage of tho shiny blnck broadcloth. J"Will you bring me the family Bihlo, pleoso? " naid the good man.
Alas, every one looked at hia or her neighbor in consternotion. If he had sold, "Where in the fnmily still?" he might hove received a reply of some kind --0 curse or n bullet, at lenst but to this innocent query there was no ouswering word. Then, diving in¬ to one of hia own pockets, ho drew forth a little testament which ho.l done service over many a grove, but was rarely cnlled out where Iho family Bible won moro fliting, and made the annteady groom and the rulher sheeji ish bride stand up before him, joining handa. The service wns very short ond the onswers to his offlcinl ques¬ tions abrupt anil thick. The cnnqmiiy mointnineil a resjieclfiil silence, and when proyer followed llie blessitiK there were one or two ".\niens" -an nssnmptioii nf godliness that was too evidently eveiywlieie lucking. Then camo I'liiigratiiliitioiis ami somo rother heavy banter, and one or Iwo of the dililoiiiatu' ones engaged the clergy- iiinn ill coiiversatiiiu which led to horses nnd a desire to get the worthy's iqiinion on o doppled more tethered in tho thicket hard by. It wns clearly a imt-np job to get the clergyinon out of Ihe house, sn Hint the feiist might be prepared and the jnllillcati.in renewed; but the dnniiiiie did not lunlge. He know thnt if he went frnm the liousc he would never be able to re enter ond moke Ilia clninia, so he stayed right there till things grew very emliorins- sing.
At last, when the diplomatist shook his hea.l at tho groom as much as to announce that il was "no go," the Benedict of the hmir appealed to others, an.l oue and all took o turn in trying tn gel the dnniinie oul of the house. Ho was h necessity before, but now that liis work was done and his mission perfornieil, he was distjuclly in the way, ond il <lid not reipiire o very wise mar to discover il. Bill the Methodist roverciiil hinl not traveled oil that way without insuring his re¬ wards, if rewords there were, and the thought of returning to Beverly oud his wife without that dnllar made the cold chills creej. over him. Ilo lliniiglit of that Bilk dress whi.'h the p,..ir wn man hn.l saved np and g.me witluiiit many a necessity to nttniii, nn.l lliere il lay in the express nllice for link nf a paltry silvcrpii-ce. No, Le wmild stick to the last.
Soon the groom perceived Ihnt un¬ less the shinv. I.Iii.'k lir.inili|..tlih.....l..o »as hustled iiwiiy the wcMiiig jnllifl- catmu wniilil Ilea IIiim-.i. He liesitated between throw iiig the .Inminie iMit l>ndilv ami c.iiiqirniiiisiiii,' .\ hasty cnnfe'rence with the bri.le f.ill.iwed, nnd evidently her lietter sense nili'd. Up tn the reveren.l the fellnw swoggerod and said: "Mister, wlint's the damages for this y.'re splice?"
The reverend wonld hove takeu the man In task liniiinrnusly for his flip- pan.'V and irrevereiH'e ha.l it liei.n an¬ other place an.l time, lull now lie merely smile.I suavely an.l sai.l: "It's j usually 3- when I have to trove; so I far, but seeing it's y..u, my dear T.iiing lirolher. I'll call it $1, u::d (ind bless ynn'^"
The     groom    acratched    hin    hea.1

j bride.        He    si..iii    returne.l    with    a
