ing the clause of the English bill restrict
ing the right of Kansas to come into the
Union with less population than ninety
three thousand. Now, sir, had supposed
that the gentlemen of the minority ofthe
committee would have voted for the bill
which they have reported, but speeches
have been made by two of the gentlemen
who signed that report Mr.. Grow and
Mr.. Granger in which they went off on
an altogether different line ofreasoning.-
They have talked about the unconstitu-
tionality of the Constitution of Oregon,
and about its invasions of human rights,
without combining themselves at all to the
argument of their minority report They
argue that whoever may vote for the ad-
mission of the State, will properly be held
responsible for all these outrages. And
now l wish to know for what considera-
ton the signers of that report are willing
to ignore all these revered human rights
invaded and ruined by the Constitution
of Oregon d? have their reply in this re-
port. On one condition they are willing
to sanction all these outrages and that
condition is, that certain act concerning
Kansas shall be repealed. II the report
is in good faith, there can be no other con-
clusion.
Here the hammer fell.

Burmese Sayings.

Riches are less wealth than learning;
for wisdom cannot be stolen or lost; it is,
therefore, thy best friend, and benefits in
life, nay, even after death. The riches
of priests are moral precepts. Soft words
make friends; bitter words make many
enemies. Be thankful for the least, after
partaking of it. One may have youth,
beauty, rank and wealth; but without
wisdom q man is like beautiful flower
that hath no fragrance. The rose inn
parteth fragrance 10 the leaf in which 1t Is
folded. Associate with the wise, and
their wisdom will cling to thee. The
foolish one can discern fault in another
as small a. the least Of seeds; but he
cannot discover fault in himself as large
as cocoa-nut. Lay not g sin upon .
child, but upon its parent When pu-
pill takes to evil ways, blame the teacher.
When nation degenerates into unseen
] " courses, blame the ruler; and when
the ruler does wrong, blame his ministers.
From the "Nedh Ryan," a Burmese pub
lie scork.

Industry.

Toll is the price of sleep and appetite,
of health and enjoyment. The very
necessity which overcomes our natural
sloth, is blessing. The world does no,
contain a briar or q thorn that divine
mercy could have spared. We are hap
pier with the sterility which We can
overcome by industry, than We could be
with the most spontaneous and unbound
cd profusion. The body and mind ara
improved by the toll that fatigues them
that toll is thousand times rewarded by
the pleasure which it bestows It's enjoy
ments are peculiar; no wealth can pur-
chase them, no insolence touch them
They only flow from the exertion which
they repay.

A Birthday Tribute.
BY THE "PEoFEssoR."


We will not speak Of years tonight:
For what have years to bring,
But larger foods Of love and light
And sUeeter songs TO sing2
Wewill not drown in wordy praise
The kindly thoughts that rise;
If friendship owns one tender phrase,
He reads it in our eyes.
We need not waste our schooIboy art
To gid this notch of time;
Forgive me. if my way ward heart
Has throbbed in artless rhyme.
Enough for him the silent grasp
That knits us hand in hand,
And he the bracelets radiant clasp
That locks our circling band.
Strength to his hours of manly toll!
Peace to his starlit dreamsl
Who loves alike the furrowed soil,
The music-haunted streamsl
Sweet smiles TO keep forever bright
The sunshine on hislips,
And faith, that sees the ring of light
Round Natures last eclipsel

A TOUCHING ANEcDoTE.-Hon. A. H.
Stephens, of Georgia, in recent address al
meeting in Alexandria, for the benefit OF
the Orphan Asylum and Free Schools OF
that city, related the following anecdote:
A poor little boy, in cold night in June,
with no home or roof to shelter his head.

to protect or direct him on his way. reached
at nightfall the house of a rich planter who
took him in, fed, lodged, and sent him on
his way with his blessing. These kind at
tentions cheered his heart, and inspired him
with fresh courage to battle with the obsta-
cles of life. Years rolled round; Proyi-
dence led him on he had reached the LEGAL
profession; his host had died the cormo-
rants that prey on the substance of man had
formed conspiracy to get from the widow
her estates. She sent for the nearest coun-
sci to commit Ler cause to him, and that
counsel proved to be the orphan boy wears
before welcomed and entertained by her
deceased husband. The stimnlants of a
warm and tenacious gratitude was now adj
ded to the ordinary motives connected with
the profession. He undertook her cause
with a will not easily to be resisted; he
gained it; the widows estates were Sc

At the meeting of the city Council OF
indianapolis on Monday night, an ordinance
was passed disbanding the entire Fire De-
partment of the city, and another ordinance
adopted, providing for the organization OF
paid Department. The companies for hand
engines, under the new arrangement, are etc tt9
captains to receive $75 per annum, and the
rank and file $25. The engines and hose
carriages are to be pulled by horses. Two
members are to be always stationed at the
engine houses, and they receive salary of
S275 per annum. The Council evidently
calculate on having citizens work the en-
gines when once they are stationed at the
fire, as twenty four men are entirely made
quate to man them.
The indiana Central and Jacksonville
Railroad companies intend reeonstructing
the road from Knightstown to Shelbyville.
This is to cheaper the transportation of
freight between Louisville and the East,
which now goes out of its way through
indianapolis.
The N. Y. Tribune says handsome and
respectfully dressed woman was recently
brought into the criminal courts of that city
in a state of beastly iutoxication, and that
while in charge of the officers she took fit
of delirium tremens. Her shrieks were so
terrible and agonizing that those accustom-
ed to such scenes were deeply moved. The
woman was the wife ofan eminent physician
and had everything about her only shotr
time previous to marc her happy. In an
evil hour she formed the habit that dragged
her down step by step to ruin. Her hus-
band tried every means in his power to re-
claim her, but without avail and, as fiual
resort was obliged to have her arrested and
sent to the 0enitentiary.

BThc cities of Richmond and Lafay-
cite seem vieing with each other as to
which shall produce the most desperate
scoundrels- Lafayette has had it pretty
muchsher own way, until, within the past
week or two, Richmond has gone ahead OF
her immensely. The Indianapolis Journal
says the citizens of the Quaker City have been
compelled at last to form a company of reg
uiators for the protection of property and
life Richmond has been celebrated for it's
sobriety The citizens have boosted of this
not little, and we believe it is one of the
very few cities in our State that has made
an extra parade of IFS temperance qualifca-
tons. 1t seems, however, that in this in
stance, as in others, one extreme begets an
other.

CoxTEMPTIBLE.-A post Office has been
in existauce ct EIletsville, Monroe County,
COR number of years. Ever since the year
1885, Mr. Sharp-who, by the way, is a
Republican in politicians acted as Post
Master. In 1856 he received a circular in
forming him if he wished to be continued
in Office he must do what he could to secure
the election of James Buchanan. This cir
cular was promptly published by Mr. Sharp
who wished to inform the people of the in
strumentaiities being used to secure the
election of the old Federalist. Since Mr.
Buchanan has been in power he has appoint
ed two or three Democrats to take the office,
all of whom have refused. As last re-
sort, rather than have the office remain in
the han@ of a political opponent, it has been
discontinued altogether, and the people Of
that neighborhood are forced to travel some
eight or ten miles for their mail matter. A
more contemplate specimen of party ma
ievolence We never heard of.

rsa Prof. Owen-the State Geologist-
delivered lecture at Indianapolis on eatur-
day week last, which was replete with prac-
teal suggestions Among other things, he
informed the citizens at the Capitol, they
could procure an abundant supply of water
al a depth of not more than two hundred
.. 4 seventy feet, by sinking artesian wells
He thought the quality of the water might
be very different from that at Lafayette
He also told them that at the Bluffs OF
White river" in Marion county, about six
teen or eighteen miles below their city, they
might find coal of as good quality as that
mined on the banks of the Ohio river.
In the course of his lecture, he remarked
that in Perry county, he had discovered a
ssss and Gerry workable vein of iron ore. The
vein was situate on a creek that was nayi-
gable the greater portion of the year, and
he felt confident, if properly mined, it would
yield about so per cent. of metal.
That the Southern portions of Indians
and Illinois, are as rich in mineral wealth
as any part of the Union, has long been con-
eeded The great difficulty has been the
lack of capital, and-we may add-enter-
prise, to develope that wealth. However,
day by day, it is attracting that attention ii
deserves, and we are confidently looking
forward to the time when our city will be
regarded as the Birmingham of the United
States No doubt our little rolling mill viii
prove to be the germ of vast system o.
iron works, the products of which will b'
scattered over the whole world.

LONDON PENNY PosT.-George S. Hillard
writes from London to the Boston Courier:
The third institution is the London penny
post which is about as near perfection as
the lot of humanity will permit Several
times day are letters brought to your
door; aud you may, be generally sure that
within four hours at least from the time
you post letter it will be in the hands of
your correspondent, though perhaps two or
three rifles off. The perfection of the letter
delivery system has entirely superseded the
necessity of employing special messengers
to carry notes about Your invitation to
dinner comes to you by the post, and your
answer goes the same way; and thus you
accomplish by penny what would other
wise have cost you a shilling at least The
postage system, as now organized and adj
ministered III the British isles, is one of the
most valuable gifts-eyer bestowed by civiii-
Zation upon mankind.
