Variation of the Compass.

The variation OF the compass, OF which we
read in books, is different thing from the varia
ton of the compass, spoken ofby land surveyors.
The latter being the difference of bearing be-
tween the same line, as run at different times,
and the former being the difference between the
point OF the needle, and true meridian.
AT the time the first lands were located IN &C.
Gil county, the variation of the needle was east
wardly; and it continued progressing in that di-
recion, at the rate OF about one degree in twenty
years, until 1888, then from that time until 1903,
there appears to have been little or no variation.
From 1908 to the present time the variation has
been weslwardly, at about the same rate, at
which it previously Travelled eastward; SO that it
becomes necessary in tracing lines run previous
to 1888, to ascertain the difference of variation,
whether II be eastwardly, or westwardly.
For instance: patent located in 1879 would
now be located, in 1851, without any allowance
Tor variation, tina, is TO say, line run north at
that time, by the point ofthe needle, would now
be north by the same needle, the western Vara-
ton in the interval, being sufficient TO balance
tho variation eastwardly. And line located in
lo99 would now require an allowance OF Two de-
grees Tor easterly variation, the excess beng
eastward Tor period oi lorty years. Again
line run IN li39 would require an allowance OF
one degree for west variation, there being pre-
ponderance OF 20 years OF westerly variation.
In allowing for variation westwardly the instru-
mcnt IS turned the number OF degrees required
to the right, and for eastward variation to the
lett.
The variation oil the compass is no doubt de-
penaeht on laws winch are regular IN thelr ope-
Iitions but there is no rule That can be success

Misplaced Confidence.

Jones is in general good husband and
domestic man. Occasionally, howev-
er, his convivial tastes betray him into
excuses which have subjected him more
than once TO the discipline of Mrs. Jones.
A few nights since he was invited to
''participate" with few friends at Flor
ence's by way of celebrating a piece of
good luck which had befallen one of his
neighbors. He did "participate," and
to his utter establishment, when he rose
to take his leave, at the ''wee short hour
ayont the twal," he found the largest
brick in his hat he ever saw. Indeed,
he was heard to remark subsequently,
81 think Mr.. Jones, you were never
quite SO tight before"
He reached his home finally, but by
route which was anything but the
shortest distance, between points, not,
however, without having experienced
very considerable anxiety about the re-
ception which awaited HIM from Mrs.
Jones. He was in luck that night, was
Mr.. Jones, barring always his primal
transgression; he goti his house, found
his way into his chamber without "wa-
king creature; not even mouse"
After closing his door, he cautiously pau
sed, to give thanks for the conscience
undefiled" which secured to Mrs. Jones
the sound and refreshing slumbers which
had prevented her taking notice of his
arrival. Being satisfied that all was
right, he proceeded to remove his in
teguments with as much despatch and
quiet as circumstances would permit,
and in the course of time sought the
vacant place beside his slumbering con-
sort. After resting moment, and con-
graduating himself that he was in bed,
and that his wife did not know how long
he had been there, it occurred to him
that if he did not change his position
Mrs. Jones might detect from his breath
that he had been indulging. 10 pre-
vent such catastrophe, he resolved to
turn over. He had about half accom-
plished his purpose-we are now obi
ged.to use the idiomatic language of Mr..
Jones himself, from whom we received
/ this chapter of his domestic trials
"When Mrs. Jones riz right up in the
bed, and, said she, in tones that scraped
the marrow all out of my bones said
she, Jones, you needn't turn orer; you're

New AND TRUE.-It is indeed a fact, worthy
of remark, and one that Seems never to have
been noticed, that throughout the whole animal
creation in every country and cline ofthe earth,
the most useful animals that cat vegetable food,
work. The all-powerful elephant, and the pa
tient, untirlng camel, in the torrid zone; tie
horse, the OK, or the donkey, in the temperate;
and the reindeer in the frigid zone, obtain all
their muscular power for enduring labor from
natures simplest productions-the vegetable
kingdom. But all the Aesh-eating animals keep
the rest of the animated creation in constant
dread of them. They seldom eat vegetable food
until some other animal la, eaten it first, and
made it into flesh. Their only use seems to be
TO destroy life-their own flesh is unfit for other
animals 10 eat, having been itself made out Of
flesh, and is most foul and offensive. Great
strength, heetness of foot, usefulness, cleanli-
ness, and docility, are, then, always character
istic OF vegetable flesh-caters.
