To BECOME A MILLIoNAIRE.-One of the
wealthy men of New Orleans, the late Mr..
McDoNoUGH, had engraved upon his tomb
series OF maxims which he says he adopt
ed for the guidance of his life, in 1904, and
to which he attributes his success in busi-
ness He makes them public for the cbene-
fit of all who desire to become rich, and
they are worth reproduction here: "Rules
for Guidance of My, Life, 1sO4.-Remember
always that labor is one of the conditions of
our existence. Time is gold throw not one
minute away, but place each one to account.
Do unto all men as you would be done by.
Never put off till tomorrow what You can
do to-day. Never bid another do what
you can do yourself. Never covet what is
not, your own. Never think any matter so
trifing as not to deserve notice. Never
give out that which does not first come in.
Never spend but to produces. Let the
greatest order regulate the transactions of
your lifelo Study in your course of life to
do the greatest amount OF good. Deprive
yourself of nothing necessary to your
comfort, butlive in. an honorable sim
plicity. Labor, them to the Hast
moment of your existence" Pursue
strictly the above rules, and the Divine
blessing and riches of every kind-will flow
upon you to your hearts content; but first
of all, remember that the chief and great
duty of your life should be to tend, by all
means in yonr power, to the. honor and
glory of our Divine Creator. The conclu-
sion to which have arrived is, that with
out temperance there is no health; without
virtue no order; without religion no happi-
ness; and that the aim of our being is to
live wisely, snberly and .righteously."
The cause of the "Black DEATH" mys-
terious disease that recently afflicted the
people of Ireland, it is said, has been dis
covered. A good many cattle have been
dying of a form of blood disease, known
as carbuncular fever, and in two or three
instances the flesh of these cattle has been
eaten by other animals. The eruption and
the symptoms are said to have been pre-
cisely like those observable in the human
victims of "Black Deaths" and it is there
fore supposed that the latter disease may
have been engendered by the eating of meat
from animals in state of carbuncular
fever. Nst7 o5fs
The New York Legislature, at its last
session, made a law which compelled all
railroad employees in that State to wear
uniforms. The New York Central Rail-
road has, In accordance with the law, in
structed its train hands to procure their uni
forms. The coats and pants will be of dark
blue pilot beaver or broadcloth, the coat
trimmed with brass buttons. The cap will
be of blue cloth, with two bands of gold
lace, the lower band to be an inch and a
half in width. The brakemen will probably
wear regulation cap only for the present.
1t has not yet been decided to uniform sta
tion men and other employees of the road.
The ravages of Cholera continue in Ita-
Sly, and the people appear to have forgot
ten almost every other matter in their anx-
iety to escape the scourge. The King of
Italy, in late decree, orders that medals

to be conferred on such persons as shall
have rendered signal services during the
prevalence of cholera, or any other grave
epidemic. 1t will have on one side the head
of the King. and on the other a crown of
oak, with legend importing that it is a
recompense for services in connection

THE Ne,o York Sun says that sashes are
almost invariably worn with every kind of
toilet; the bows are generally as large as
it is possible to tie them, and the long ends
usually flush off with deep fringe. Now
and then the bow is tied so as to catch up
a portion of the skirt behind; at others, it
is formed of very wide ribbons, and is per-
fectly fat in shape, the ends being short
and slightly pointed, and bordered all
round with fringe, so that the whole ap-

\ A RADICAL correspondent from Missis-
sippi, after boasting of the power of the
Loyal Leagues among the blacks, says
eThe Loyal Leagues are perhaps the chic f
political power in the State, but besides
these there are other more radical and Sc
cret societies among the blacks themselves,
looking to the accomplishment of ulterior
designs, in which the interests and the am
billions of the blacks are the objects of su-
preme regard" flY 5.g -1usur
