sOnLPrrREp oBsCKNITY

There is one matter in relation to POmpeii
that seldom touched too closely, to wit: The
horrible depravity of the Pompeians, as IL
Illustrated by the frescoes, mosaics, sculptures
and bronzed statues that are found. Hum
dreds of these vile objects have been car
ried away to the museum in Naples, and put
in room which no woman is allowed to
visit but there are still houses in Pompeii
that are kept locked, and others that have
such sculptures over the doors on the out
side that the guides hurry past them when
there are women in the party. Even In pri-
yate houses there are scores Of frescoes,-
magnihcently executed, too-vhich one
would dare to visit only in company with
his nearest and dearest friends, if ladies,
and in other houses pictures and statues than
which none can imagine anything worse.
| I cannot understand why the writers have
been so anxious to conceal the faults of the
ancients. 1t is q fact that deserves to be gen.
erallv known, Great Godl what picture
of corruption in Imperial Rome is revealed
to one who looked into Pompeii with any
! thing like thoroughness. The very stone
of the door-post tells tale more damnable
than ever was enyinted by modern thought.
Sodom was clean and Gomorrah was pure
compared with POmpeii- Where was ever
people on the earth, before or since Pompeii
That advertised ''the ways that lead down to
helrp by sculptures placed in the open light
of the streets? Out damned sPotl cried the
infant genius of modern civilization and
christianity, as it looked in upon Pompeii
and Vesuvius responded to the command
and sent his consuming fires to do the work

ON THE PLAINS.


Col. A. K. MoCLURE, editor of the Cham
bersburg, Pa, Repository,i is roaming at large
over the western Plains, with his family, and
writes interesting letters to his own paper
and the N. Y. Tribune. From his last, to
the Repository, we copy some of his jottings
on the road from Denver to Salt Lake City:
scARE-CRow TO INDIANS. nl
At the first strtion (Wsskie) we found
that no Indians had appeared there as yet.
The old station-keeper had the hind carnage
of stage wagon mounted with section OF
large stove-pipe, a caisson improyised out OF
a Wheel-barrow, and the letters "U. s."
painted on them in the largest possible style.
AS the team was grazing we had pleasant
chat with the old fellow, and heard him tell
ing some of the thrilling history of the early
trials on the plains and in the mountains. A
AN ORIGINAL TEAM. b1sVno %.
The roads being fine in this region, we
had some original teams. At Mlllersviile,
twelve miles from Bridger, they hitched up
six raw bronchas wild California horses.
II required man to each horse to get them
into the harness, and then each one had to
he held until all was ready. They reared,
plunged, kicked, pulled back, lay down, and
pIayed all manner of fantastic antics, but the
driver finally mounted his box with cool
ness that showed him to be perfect master oi
the situation, and as be yelled to them TO
mpit,p his keen silken cracker flashed about
their fianks and kept flashing until all start
cd on run. They don't take time TO break
horses on the plains, but where there is a
level country, they harness them wits
nitch-fork and drive them under the whip
until they are glad to be docile. Bogs and
washes in the roads are of no consequence
they dash through them as if they did
not exist, and with yell and a sharp crack
Iof the whip, they rear out on the other SIDE
The strange feature OF these horses IS tha'
thew are never broken until they are worn
cut. They seem to be by nature intractable
and as long as they are able for the road,
they yield TO harness only after an exhaust
| i've struggle. ~ .

DIsBARKING TREEs.-It is process
described in English books and some
times practised in this country, to en-
tireIy peel the trunks of fruit trees in
midsummer, to induce fruitfulnesS in
future years. | have seen large ap-
pie trees, a foot in diameter, entirely
deprived of their bark as high up as
| could reach, and down to the ground.
They not only lived, but became fruit
full. In the longest days OF the year,
just when the alburnum or new sap
wood is forming. a tree may thus be
disbarked without killing it, and the
effect being to check the growth, the
process is very likely to bring the
tree into bearing. Every farmer has
noticed that young tree split by the
plow, or otherwise injured, usually
blossoms and bears, and old, half dead
trees often bear abundantly, and all
because, as in root pruning, a check
is given to the growth of the wood,
and the buds are developed into bios
SONS and fruit. Bending down the
branches Of tree often produces the
same effect, and rapidly growing
young orchard may be sometimes
brought into full bearing by laying the
land to grass, and thus checking the
luXuriousness OF its growth.

WITHOUT AN ENEMY. - Heaven
help the man who imagines he can
dodge enemies by trying to please
everybody! If such an individual
ever succeeded we should be glad of
it-not that we believe In man &C.
ing through the world trying to find
beams to knock his head against; dis
putting every mans opinion, fighting
and elbowing and crowding all who
differ with him. That again, is an
other extreme. Other people have
a right to their opinion, so have you;
don't fall into the error of supposing
they will respect you less for main
tanning it, or respect you more Tor
turning your coat every day to match
the color of theirs. Wear your own
colors, in spite of winds and weather,
storms or sunshine. 1t costs the va
cillating and irresolutee ten times the.
trouble to wind and shuttle and twist,
that it does honest, manly independ-
ence to stand its ground. sd aai

A snake charmer while trying to
charm a rattlesnake at White Sui.
phur Spring, Va, was bitten by the
reptile in three places. He drank a
quart of whiskey, but in short time
his limbs began to swell, and he was
in intense pain. He then called eag-
erly for a snake. AS it was brought
to him he caught it by the back Of the
neck with his teeth, bit off its head,
spit it on the floor, and ate and swal-
lowed some four inches of the snakes
body. Whether his idea was to cure
like by like; whether he was delirious,
or whether his own nature had be-
come so thoroughly impregnated with
snake nature that he was merely sat
isfying snake vengeance, it is impos-
sible to say. He flung himself on the
gound as soon as he had ceased de-
vouring the snake flesh, and writhed
and wiggled along the floor unaided
by arms or legs after the manner of a
crawling reptile. He was drenched
with whisky, but too late-he died in
"a hours.

MARRIAGE AND HOUSEKEEPING
There are a great many persons who
are just beginning life that are newly
married, and that are just turning, [
trust, away from the hotel and the
clearinghouse to keep house; for |
think that, next to virtue, house
keeping is the desirable thing for new
Unmarried persons. You will per-
haps wonder what | have to say upon
this. have this to say, that to any
young persons life, this is change
so marked. it is a step so different
to any other, that if you know how,
with this peculiar and critical step of
your life, to take also one another, it
will not be alone marrying for time
it will be love for eternity. Is
there anything more beautiful than
true love? No flowers can show
such colOrs or exhale such fragrance
as does true love, that makes ones
life a sacrifice for and a service for
another Is there anything more
beautiful this side of Gods throne
than two right minded and purely
loving souls beginning to live, each
one servant in love to the other
Now just beginning a virtuouS we'd
ded life is not religion; but, if you
make this first step in a series, it
will do more to lead to Christian
course of life than perhaps any other
thing possibly could.-Beecher.

Somebody.

Somebody's eyes have grown DINNER,
Off in some quaint old home,
At morn, when the evening stars glimmer,
Watching for some one to come;
Watching while heart grows sicker,
AS day after day glides along,
Watching while the tears fall the thicker,
Choking the lullaby song.
Somebody, wandering over
Lands far away from his own, .
Sees, as of old, the sweet clover
That grew by the old door stone,
Longs TO go back and too mingle,
AS in the dim days of yore,
With those round the old cottage ingle-
Those who, alas are no more.
Somebody's prayers are ascending,
Ever for dear ones away,
Prayers that his blessing attending
May keep them from going astray;
Prayers that float near and nearer
The throne of the Father above,
And reaching the ear ofthe Hearer,
Are answered in Infinite Love.
Somebody's life work is ended
Patient they wait now to go;
Long have they faithfully wended
Toilsome paths here below;
Soon the reward they'll be reaping
That to the faithful is given
'Wen done, ,"-"Come up" and be keeping,
Watch for somebody in Heaven.

The CHINESE IN CALIFORNIA.-A
letter from California contains the
following interesting items:
The Chinese are coming into our
state by wholesale, and practically
solving the labor question. Over
two thousand seven hundred have
arrived within the last forty-fve days,
and there are four ship-loads more
already due at this port from Hong
Kong. These men do not lose an
hour, but 90 to work in the mines, on
the railroads, Oh ranches, or in other
industrial pursuits, as fast as they ar
rive. l passed a large hall, last
evening in which some forty or fifty,
evidently new comers, were at work
at cigar making, chattering away like
magpies, but making their fingers fly
at the same time, and turning out
neater cigars, and faster than the
grumbIing, drinking, discontented
European workman can do.
| paid a visit the other day, to one
of the famous fruit gardens of Almeda,
some three miles back Of Oakland, on
the eastern side of the bay, opposite
San Francisco. Among the great
features of this garden or, as it is
called in California parlance, fruit
rancho, lis a red raspberry patch OF
nine acres. This patch will yield
from one hundred and thirty to two
hundred tons of delicious raspberries
this year. From one to two hundred
Cinnamon are constantly at work
picking berries for the market. The
ranch is owned by John Lusk, one OF
the largest raisers of small fruit in
California. He receives, on an aver.
age, fifteen cents per pound by the
box, for these berries, and his crop Of
this single variety will yield him from
$4,000 to $4,000 in gold this year
Strawberries and other small fruit
are raised on an extensive scale by
Mr.. Lusk, but not iR such quantities
as the raspberries. His garden is
worth coming to California to see.
