The efforts to relieve the head, at those times

frequently most distressing to the one affected,
and most disagreeable to those around him.

Whaling oroand. Along "a. Pacific cea.,

The San Francisco BuIIsntin says there
arc certain seasons Of the year when there
are good whaling grounds along the coast
Of California, and especially In the bays
and inlets OF Lower California. The whale
hest known rs the California migrates to
the north In the spring and returns In the
fall, hugging the coast pretty close for
nearly a Thousand miles. Sometimes he
brings up In the Gulf of California, where
he winters, but generally seeks out some
estuary on the lower coast for breeding
purposes. Thus Magda.ena Bay has long
been noted rendezvous for whales. On
the way up and down the coast, these
whales stop ut intermediate bays and In
lets, apparently In search Of good feeding
grounds, often remaining near the same
place for days and sometimes weeks. The
gray whale Is Of medium size, ranging
from % feet to 40 feet Is length, and yield
Ing, according to size, from 20 to 40 bar
rels Of right whale oil. This whale has

It lively for his pursuers. Humpback
whale and the blackfsh are frequently
seen together upon the same feeding
grounds. The grayback Is now returning
from the northern waters. At this season
some Of the whaling vessels start out for
a cruise, and often find the home grounds
quite as good for short term rs the po-
lar regions. The shore companies also
drive brisk business. These pursue the
whale In open boats about bays, and ny
out the bIubber on shore. There are sew
eral "shorc companies" now along the
coast. In Monterey bay we have counted
dozen whales In sight within an hour,
inviting III rather Jolly way, somebody
to pursue them. The bomblancc Is now
chiefly used on the grny-whalc,as at close
quarters he is rather an ugly customer,
and resents the proddlng of a.harpoou
when thrown by hand. A largo number
are killed which are never secured. These
float ashore some days afferward, and are

south will be heading northward ~ soon
as April next. Tho home whaling grounds
are not likely to DO overlooked hereafter.

TAs Festsssps e| Decay.


The following 10 q translation from an aneieu
Spanish poem which. says the Edinburgh Revie,
10 surpassed by nothing with which we are &C
quainted In the spanish language, except IN
"ods Of Louis de Leon"
Oil let the soul its slumbers break-
Arouse Its senses and awake
To zee how soon
Life, In Its glories, glides away,
And the stern footsteps Of decay
Come stealing ON.
And while we view the rolling tide
Down which our flowing minutes glide
Away so fast,
Let us tbs present hour employ,
And deem each future dream ajoy.
Already past.
Let no vain hope deceive the mind,
No happier let US hope to ind
Tomorrow than to-day:
Our golden dreams ofyore were bright;
Like them the present shall delight
Like them decay.
Our lives like Fastening streams must be,
That into one engulnng sea
Are doomed to iali-
The sea ofdeath whose waves roll on
Der king and klngdom, crown and throne,
And swallow all.
Alike the rivers iorily tide,
Alike the humble rivulet's glide,
To that sad wavei
Death levels poverty and pride,
And rich and poor sleep side by side
Within the grave.
Our birth Is but starting place;
Life Is the running of the race,
And death the goal;
There all our glttering toys are brought
That path alone, Of all unsousht,
IL found ofail.
See, then. how poor and little worth
Are all those glittering toys Of earth
That lure rs here;
Dreams OF a sleep that death must break;
Alas before Il bids Us awake,
We disappear.
Long ere the damp of earth can blight
The cheeks pure glow ofred and white
lie passed away;
Youth smiled. and all was heavenly fair;
Age came. and laid his finger there,
And where are they'
Where Is the strength that spurned decay,
The step that roved 80 light and gay;
The hearts biithe toner
The strength Is gone, the step Is slow,
And JOY grows wearisome, and woe
When age comes ont

ney General EvARTs at the Astor House
on the 18th inst, to which Gen GRANT
was invited.
1t was intimated that GRANT would at.
tend provided, Secretaries WELLEs, Nc
CULLocH and RANDALL, or any of them
were not present"
In the Stanton War-Department affair
these gentlemen furnished evidence to
the public, that Gen. GRANT had wilfully
deceived the President and then missta
ted the facts connected with that affair
hence his enmity to the men who branded
him afalsifer. Shame forbid him boldly
facing the men who had fearlessly pro
claimed him guilty of doubled dealing
and falsehood, to crafty the desires Of
a Revolutionary Rump Congress.

Pilgrims Progress Extraordinary,

Major DeForrest, in his contribution
of Freedmen's Bureau and other Incl
dents to Harpers Monthly, tells this an
ecdote.
The drollest evening that l passed in
Greenville was at q magic lantern exhib.
ition. The pictures illustrated Bunyan's
Pilgrims Progress, and were horrible
enough to have been designed by Apoll.
yon himself in mockery of that almost
sacred narrative The exhibitors were
two "muscular Christians, ~ who had
precisely the tone and bearing of pro,
fessional roughs, and whom l suspected
of being Baltimore Plug giles. The
contrast between their Bood-Tab infor.
nation as they explained the designs
and the pieus gravity of the story which
was illustrated, kept me in a paroxysnl
of laughter The climax was reached
when we beheld a blue and white Chris
tian meeting three greenish angels. 5'1
s.Here you see the three shining ones, .
expounded the Plug who stood beside
the curtain. GAS Christian goes up the
hill he meets the three shining ones
Ono of them takes him by the hand and
says to him-What the h-ll are you
doing?'
This last phase was loudly whisper
ed aside, addressed to the operator ii
rear Of the curtain, who at that moment
extinguished the lantern, perhaps in
lighting cigar from its.hallowed fame

Threatened Trouble I'm Paris,
Prosecution OF the Press,

Cable dispatches of the 10th inst, in
form us that the French government has
obtained convictions against a number
ofjournalists and others for aiding in
getting up subscription for a monu-
ment to one of the victims of the coup
d'etat Of December, 1852. 1t appears
that heavy fines have been imposed up
on the convicted parties and an addition
al penalty inflicted of the loss of their
civil rights. The despatch stated that
great popular indignation ensued in Par
is upon the rendering of the Judgment,
and the symptoms of general agitation
were so alarming that the military and
police in the French capital were taking
"extraordinary precautions against the
disturbance Of order. This fact may
probably explain the late rumor of a
conspiracy against the government.
Later dispatches announce that pro-
secution has been entered by the govern
ment against the Gaulois, which is in
keeping with the recent announcements
that if the newspapers behaved them
selves they would not be molested, but
ifindiscreet they would have to take the
consequences. The Gaulois has been
somewhat bold Of late in it's structures on
the policy of Napoleon, and it appears
that it is considered as having overstep-
ped the limits ofdiscretion.

Important Bankruptcy Decision
nj Richmond.

Judge Underwood, on Friday, in the
United States Circuit Court for Virginia
made an important decision in the case
Of Leroy T. Edwards, bankrupt. The
facts in the case arc as follows:
The bankrupt filed his petition in bank
ruptcy on the 25th day of March, 1868,
and on the 26th day of March he was
adjudicated a bankrupt. Z. R. Turn
bull was appointed assignee of tic
bankrupt's estate on the 18th day OF
June, 1868, and on the 9Th day of Sep
teinber the assignee made areport to the
register of the property designated and
set apart to the bankrupt, which report
included the bankrupt's interest in two
hundred and forty-fve acres of land
On the 18th of November the assignee
filed written request with the register.
asking that the real estate included in
his report designating the property sci
apart as exempt to the bankrupt be dis,
allowed, upon the ground that the as
signee was not authorized by law to set
it aside as exempted property.
The opinion of the Court is as follows
The Court has repeatedly decided that
real estate may in some cases be sci
apart as a portion of the bankrupt's ex,
emption, but only in cases where it will
not injure the sale of other real estate,
or work adversely to the interests of the
creditors. ...

Athens County,

The Athens Messenger pirates about
the high taxation in Monroe County.
Athens County has population OF
.I,3e4, and the county's taxation for all
purposes in 1857, was slO6.565.
Monroe County has population OF
.5,TAl, whichis 4,377 more than Athens,
yet Monroe's taxes for all purposes in
1867, were $lO2,s59 Oh, which
shows an excess over the taxes of Mon
roe of s2,7o5 90.
In addition to the above the levy for
1868 is higher in Athens than in Mon
roe. Then why cry out against the Of
fcials of Monroe County? Simply be-
cause they are Democrats and are dis
posed to discharge the duties Of their
offices honestly and faithfully, which
don't accord with Radical theory and
practice.
Where there is so much talk about dis
honesty, as in this case of the Messcn-
gers, there must certainly be something
wrong, and that something the Ring de-
sire to cover up by yelling in the oppo-
site direction. 81. -.
The Democrats of Athens would do
we'll to examine and compare the affairs
Of their county with those of other
counties. The Radicals are playing the
game to suit themselves and It's quite
likely that an investigation would cause
hight to shine through some of their acts.
