and sending up the ancient prayer; but
ronnd them rolls the needless crowd, and
still the end is unattained. No one can regard
these prayerful groups, on whose affairs the
fire from heaven seems ever about to descend
without an emotion of extreme sympathy and
sadness. There is always enough of sincerity
in them, despite the numerous instances Of
individual hypocrisy, to challenge respect If
we cannot accord belief.
1t seems really lofty, in this community OF
low motives, that any number of men should
honestly devote themselves to the ungrateful
and apparently unfruitful task of persuading
their fellows to Goodness.
And when we reflect upon the small num-
Der who are really thus persuaded, there is
no consolation but in the belief that all our
ideas of sin are arbitrary, that men are bet
ter than we think, and that, if We would but
look out from the mist of our creeds, we
should learn that Divine love has already
forgiven and is already and ever has been
universal t

Our contemporary of the Auriferous

the last chat of the Autocrat of the

IMPROVEMENT IN HoRsEs.-The
time was when railroads were opposed
on the ground that horses would be
thrown out of use. But he fact is,
the horse is an adjunct of civilization,
and can never be dispensed with.
The supply of good horses was never
yet equal to the demand. Every
body knows that the ability of a horse
is the measure of his worth. A horse
that can draw 5000 pounds is more
valuable to the drayman than a horse
that can simply draw 1000 pounds.
A horse that will go mile in three
minutes is more valuable to a physi-
clan or business man than one that
goes mile in ten minutes. We like
to see smart men and smart horses.
Inasmuch as the faculties of both
were given them for use, We like to
see them brought into the fullest ex~
ercise. We believe in testing the
capability of matter. We know of
no agency that has done so much to-
ward improving the breeds of horses
as the exhibition of these animals at
the national fairs. 1t may cost time
and money on the part of those who
project and carry them forward, but
if a greater interest is awakened in
the public mind for their improve
ment, the object is accomplished.
There is as much philanthropy in ma
king animal matter subservient to
mind, as there is in improving the
cell of criminal. We do not believe
either in horse racing, or gambling,
but we do believe in a fast horse and
a handsome gait. 1t gives US pleas
ure, therefore, to lay before our rea-
ders the following record of the fast.
est time ever made by the best horses
in America. A mile has been run in
1 minute 421 seconds. The same
distance has been trottsd in 2 min
utes 244 seconds, and been paced in
2 minutes LII seconds. In the way
of endurance, combined with speed,
we read of 10 miles trotted in har.
ness, in % minutes, st seconds; 20
miles, under the saddle, trotted in SO
minutes, SIS seconds; SO miles in
harness, trotted in 3 hours, SIS min>
utes A seconds and 100 miles trot-
ted in 8 hours, Sc minutes and l sec
ond. In the way of. strength, we
know of horses that can draw two
tuns weight, that can back as much
as they can draw, and that never re-
fuse to pull. The best of horses are
none too good for the best of men.
Neither are perfect yet.-National

Such mother, and mild, obedient little
sister, were the only companions of Alton
Locke's boyhool. Such isolation could not
but keep him innocent, as he observes, be-
cause it kept him ignorant; while it also
forced his mind upon its own creations for
enjoyment, which was seldom increased, or
varied, by glimpses of the outside world
The gloomy ascetcism fhis only parent by
thus making him so unusually self-reliant,
saved him from the worst results of parental
tyranny, which usually drives child to des
perate acts of disobedience. to self destroy ing
vice, and to scorn of religion whose benev-
client intentions have been converted for him
into curse.
That love of the beautiful, to which allu-
sion has been made, preserved Alton Locke,
as it has preserved others, from the PERM
cious consequences of parental misrule. Vice
was monster of such hideous mien that it
repulsed him. He was guilty of mistakes
and weaknesses--as who is not but never
of crime. Aud it is in defense of this love
of the beautiful that we now speak--in de-
Tense of children and childrens' rights. We
desire to call attention to that noble class of
writers who champion the Misunderstood and
much abused generation of little folks the
world over. We intended to add one protest
to theirs against the domestic despotism, the
general wrong treatment and the harsh mis-
rule to which the little fairies of our homes
are commonly subjected.
Deal gently with thy little children, oh
world Impose not on them premature
knowledge of gloom and misery for too
soon, alas! their own inevitable fate will
lead them into the midst of this life's suffer-
ings and sins. Glide not single harmless
prank, cloud not smile, nor chill one warm
and frank emotion. Be demonstratiUe in
thy affection for them, and receive into thy
arms the future supporters of thy own latest
helplessness.

Livingstone, the African traveller
that the climate and physical features
of country do not have the inAu-
ence usually ascribed to them in de-

on the contrary, that men select for
their abode such places as are con-

number of the California Culturist, conveys
the information that variety of sugar cane
indigenous to the locality, is found in con-

Indians make from it, with their own rude
means-simply pounding in stone mortars to
extract the crude juice-a very fair article of
syrup.
The same plant also grows upon the bord-;
ers of the Sinks of both the Carson and

The editor of the Culturist thinks this
might prove valuable addition to our list
of sugar-producing plants, and, as it four

thousand Divisions, with membership num-

past year the admissions of new members
have exceeded $4,000 persons. These re-
