The Worthlessness Of Gold.

II is stated by many Of the survivors of
the Central Americas passengers, that
there was seldom so large an amount OF
money owned by passengers as was in
the case of those who came by the Cen
trail America. Many were persons of
large means, and there were but very few
whose immediate wealth did not amount
to hundreds, while numbers reckoned
their gold by the thousands of dollars.
The greatest portion of the passengers
were returned miners, some coming hlth-
er TO invest the capital they had realized
in hopes to live life Of greater ease as
the result Of their industry, and others TO
get their families and once more GO TO the
land of gold. But as the storm continued
TO rage, less and less Of gold was thought
Of, and when, on Saturday, il became evil
dent that they were likely at any moment
10 be buried beneath the waves, wealthy
men Invested themselves Of their treas
ure belts and scattered the gold upon the
cabin floors, telling those to take it who
would, lest lis weight-a few ounces or
pounds-would carry them to their death.
Foil purses, containing in some instances
$4,000, were lying untouched on sofas.
Carpet bags were opened by men and the
shining metal was poured out on the floor
with the prodigaliIy of deaths despair.
One of the passengers who has fortunate
ly been rescued, opened bag and dashed
about the cabin $4,000 in gold dust, and
told him who wanted TO crafty his greed
for gold to take it. Blu, it was passed by
uni ouched as the veriest dross. A few
hours before he would have struck down
the man who would have attempted to
take a grain Of that which he now spurn-
ed from him.

BABIES IN KANSAS correspondent
of the ST. Louis Democrat says MOI
long since the editor of the Herald OF
Freedom, informed the young ladies' in
Kansas, that they could Preempt 100
acres Of land. Some Of the ''strong mind
ed'' ones who were disciples of his al
that time "squaued" on different claims
in the southern part of the Territory,
which has lately come into market, The
pre-emption law says:
The individuals claiming the benefits
of said acts must be-eilher, the head Of
family or a widow, or a single man over
The age of twenty.one."
Those young ladies' not fulfilling eth
er of the requirements have adopted Mrs.
Cunningham plan Of borrowing babies
in order to swear they are the "hesd OF
family" They generally board them
ono week and make one dress for the priv
iIege of using them. Young misses OF
sweet sixteen may be seen al the head OF
a family ten years Of age.
