at many points, on the Lancanshire,
Westmoreland and Cumberland coasts,
visiting the majority Of the English
lakes in his frail boat. &c He then
proceeded round the coasts of Wigton-

occasionally landing and making geo.

ing the Firth Clyde, in which he stayed
for several weeks, exploring the Bays
and lochs Of the Firth, and of some of
the western islands. Returning to Glas-
Cow, he padded through the Forth and
Clyde Canal to Grangemouth, whence he
sailed to Leith. The canoe in which Mr..
Poole accomplished his voyage was built
for him in Canada by a tribe Of
Oaughuawaga Indians, and is composed
entirely of one sheet, of birch bark,
beautifully sewed and admirably mold

when empty only sixty pounds, and
measures fifteen feet six inches long
with a breadth; of beam of three feet six

depth. In this frail boate Mr.. Poole, as

A Curious CAsE.-The Chicago husband
who went away on business January 3lst.,
and came home February 10th, to find that
his wife had got a divorce from him mean
time, and married another man, was only
sample case. The only witness against him,
the charge being cruelty. was the new hue
band. As some atonement, this is the third
case noticed within a week where courts have
set aside their decree Of divorce after one of
the parties were married again. This is the
fourth case which equally illustrates the
looseness of our marriage law, where man.
as mere practical joke, obtained the legal
separation of a newly married couple, by
acting as attorney for the gentleman, whom
he made the plaintiff in his absence on the
wedding tour On his return he found the
decree on his Office table. and learned that
for the latter part Of his honeymoon he had
been illegally eohabiting with his former
wife, and was obliged to take out a new
marriage license and get married again
Lord Brcugham once said, in Parliament,
not half the people knew whether or not they
were legally married.

A SIGNIFICANT DocUMENT.-Just at the
time the ex-rebel officers at the South are
engaged in fervent effort to convince the
colored people that they are their true and
peculiar friends, somebody has started the
republication of JEFF Davis proclamation In
answer to the Emancipation Proclamation of
President Lincoln Davis therein speaks
bitterly of African slaves" as he calls
them, and - acting by the authority of the
Confederate States of America" he ordains
- That all negro slaves captured in arms be
at once delivered over to the executive
authorities of the respectvs States to which
they belong, to be dealt with according to
the laws of said States" In this order, de.
privine colored soldiers in the Union army Of
the benefit Of even the ordinary laws of war,
every rebel officer acquiesced and rejoiced.
They would have had the colored men,
whom they now fattering for such selfish
purposes. African slaves forever, and this
document is only one of the evidences of
their abortive efforts to keep them SO. The
least enlightened freedman can understand
these things

HISTORY OF THE PoTAro.-In a paper
read by a Mr.. Crawford, in London, on the
'' Relation of Plants te Ethnology," a short
but complete account is given of the intro
duction of the potato into Europe. The
potato is still found on the western slope of
the Andes, the tubers, however, being no
larger than the common flbert Even the
Indians, said Mr. Crawford, cultivated the
potato before the arrival of the Europeans.
1t was first brought from America to Ireland,
where it was cultivated 1885, but it is said
to have been introduced into Spain and Por.
tugal even before that date. 1t is well
authenticated fact, that Col. Moore, of Cald-
well, in the west Of Scotland. within the past
century, had some indurated clay soil taken
from a coal pit being sunk on his estate, forty
feet beneath the surface, which he carefully
treated 50 as to prevent its being impregnated
by any floating germs Of seed and that from
this piece of clay several exotic plants un-
known to the local botany came, and also one
which turned out to be a species of the Sola-
Num ta6erosum, or potato. The produce of
that plant (which in four years after It's dis
covery bore large white potatoes) is now
cultivated extensively in the west of Scotland.
The story is strange one, but it is true, and
has been solemnly attested by Colonel Moore
who was lately a member of the English
Parliament from Renfrewshire, Scotland.

SHASTA COURIER.

SELF REPORTING IN ScHooLs.-ThIs is one
of the topics ruminated and dwelt upon by
the down-country papers. We don't cntch
the idea from the captIon-though 1t is the
standard caption with the papers discussing
the subject 1t is thus: A school teacher
laws down a rule that each scholar shall
keep an account of his conduct, and make
written return at stated periods marking
his conduct, for instance, anywhere from
number one good to execrably wrdng--the
different degrees being easily denoted by
graduated scale of numbers. he reports,
also, on his progress in study. The teacher
leaves it a matter of conscience with the
Young American takes his own return
gives out his tickets and at the end OF the
term makes award, on this basis, OF the re-
wards of merit to the scholar who, sell
reported, stands highest.
1t strikes us as poor policy; and we haven't
seen Colhns-as Brother Lynch would say.
1t is a premium on brass, the facial variety
of which springs indigenous and spontaneous
throughout the land. and far in excess of the
demand. 1t is premium on lying which
art is too much encouraged already-without
having it belted and feruled il by the paid
knights of the birch.
Why, dear sirs, even in the good old times
when we went to school there were boys who
with such encouragement to their leading
propensities, would have died many years
ago more lamented for their virtues than
Peabody could buy up with all his money
more extolled for their learning, and rewards
of merit to prove it by, than Baron Won
Humboldt, or Agassiz, or Admirable erich
ton would ever have hoped to be, if they
could have made combination pool of all
their respective requirements and put it in
at posterity for only one chance. Why some
of those fellows-and their children beat
them badly-would have persuaded the world,
and shown "merit" certificates to prove it,
before they were eighteen years of age, that
they were the genuine original individual
who came into the world and died to save
sinners We don't believe in the "self-
reporting" system there's too much of it.

CAN'T BE DID.-An editor down East says
he would as soon try to 90 to sea upon a
shingle, make ladder of fog, chase streak
of lightning through a crabapple orchard,
swim up the rapids of Niagara river, raise
the dead. stop the tongue of an old maid, or
set Lake Erie on fire with a wet match, as to
stop lovers getting married when they take
it into their heads to do so.

The members of the Tonkawa tribe of
Indians in Texas feed upon roast and broiled
Camanche whenever they can get one, but
they eat no other human flesh, white or cop
per. .colored. The Camanches are equally
fastidious, and eat none of their kind except
Tonkawas How long this delicate recrsa-
tion has existed between these tribes is not
