History or Az ADMINISTRATION ORGAH.-The
secret history Of one of the Administration or
gans in Ohio has been suddenly and curiously
developed, in the course Of law suit before
the Cleveland Court Of Common PleaS. few
months ago there was started in the city OF
Cleveland daily paper, in the Administration
interest, under the title of the National Demo
crat. 1t was never edited with marked ability,
but made amends for all deficiencies by unscru-
pulous partizanship 1t praised all the acts OF
the Administration, past, present and 10 come,
and waged ineessant warfare against such Dem
ocrats as differed with the President. Not long
since. the publisher, Mr.. Pinkerton, appeared
in Court as complainant against Messrs. BenJa-
min Harrington, Matthew johnson, end Robert
Parks, from whom he seeks legal redress Tor
non-fulflment Of contract. 1t appears from
the testimony that the defendants are all Gov
erpment officials. One IL the Postmaster OF
Cleveland. the second is U. s. Marshal, the third
is Collector of the port These parties, having
been apprised Of the destitution OF the ONO
Democracy, held out inducements 70 Mr.. Pink
erton 10 undertake the publication OF the INA
tional Democrat" Mr.. p. says that these IN
ducemepts we're every fatterng;" and, in order
TO establish this statement, divulges the express
stipulatiOns into which the otiiee-holdlng gen
tlemen aforesaid volnntarially entered. IL was
simply matter of exclusive patronage. Ine

The terms of this contract having been vlo-
lated. and the democrat" being in bad way,
plaintiff sues for $4,000 damages. Moreover,
he ayers. that, not content with keeping MN
ont of bis dues the defendants have snmmarIly
expelled him from the premises, and ne declares
be will have justice, if there is any snen !nlng
IN Ohio even If he has to fight the Administra-
lion. The quarrel is a pretty one.

SENATOR BRoDERIcK.- San Francisco Bui.
letin in notice Of Senator Broderick's speech
delivered at Placerville on the 9th inst, says;
"ln spite of the ISLANDERS aud systematic de.
fractions Of Mr.. Broderick by his political op.
ponents, there is undoubtedly a native strength
and energy Of intellect In the man, which make
him terror to his foes and a tower of might
to his friends. No man is better posted In the
politics of this State than he; and none Is mora
capable of arriving at lrm conclusions, and
fearlessly expressing them. II therefore is We
ry evident that the effort Of the Administration
organs TO sncer him down will not succeed.
We would advise them then, to adopt another
line OF policy, in treating him, else they may
live to see world OF damage done in their
ranksv

Thousand Images.

In the country Of Thbet, at the foot Of the
mountain on which the Lamasery stands, and
not far from . Buddhist Temple, in a great
square inclosure, formed by n substantial brick
wall, stands the Tree Of a Thousand Images"
so we'll known. at least by report, 10 all travel
ers, as one of the sacred objects of worship of
all faithful Buddhists. NJ. Hue in his .sTravels
in Tartary, Thibet and China,n mentions the
tree and describes his visit to it in the follow
ing words :-"Up0n entering, we were able to
examine at leisure the marvellous tree, some of
the branches of which bad already manifested
themselves above the wall Our eyes were
first directed with earnest curiosity 10 the
leaves, and we were filed with an absolute
CONSERVATION Of astonishment at finding that,
in point of fact, there were upon each of the
leaves well-formed Thibetian characters, all Of
green color, some darker some lighter than
the leaf ITSELF Our first Impression was a sus.
pcion of fraud on the part Of the Lamas, but,
after minute examination in detail, we could
not discover the least deception. The charae.
ters all appeared to us portions OF the leaf Il.
self, equally with its veins and nerves The
position was not the same in all. In one leaf
they would be at the top Of the leaf; in another,
In the middle; in third, at the base, or at the
side. The younger leaves represented the
characters only in partial state of formation.
The bark of the tree and its branches, which
resemble that of the plane tree are also COW
cred with these characters. When you remove
q piece of old bark, the younger bark under il
exhibits the indistinct outlines OF characters In
terminating state, and what il very singular.
these new characters are not unfrequently diff,
ferent from those which they replace. We ex.
amined everything with the closest attention,
in order to detect some trace of trickery, but
we could discover nothing of the sort, and tho
perspiration absolutely triekled down our iaces
under the influence Of the sensations which thia
most amazing spectacle created More pro-
found intellects than ours may, perhaps, be
able to supply q satisfactory explanation Of
the mysteries Of this singular tree; but as TO u.s.
we altogether gave il up.n

EFFECT OF WAR ON HUMAN STATURE DR., Bell
says that if the curse Of war be long sntailed
on q nation, the physical energies OF the people
may suffer by the loss Of its finest population
to such degree, that the succeeding genera
ton will fall short of its former standard stat
ure, as was the case with the French youth
drafted for the army after the peace. Thus In
1926, out Of one million thirty-three thousand
four hundred and twenty-five young men draft
ed to serve in the army. three hundred and
eighty thousand two hundred and thirteen we're
sent back because they fell short Of even the
diminutive stature Of four feet ten inches,

SOCIETY IN HERMosILLo.--A correspondent
of the Arizonian writes thus about Hermosillo,
the capital Of Sonora
"The social state is deplorable. The contin-

heart of family life. All friendly intercourse
has been destroyed. The piano, harp and gui-
tar, which formerly invited the neighbors and
friends TO joy and happiness. have ceased 10

the halls where they formerly only sent forth
the tunes Of Straus and other veterans Of the
