which they have promulg gated is a charge
that Governor Falrchlld was bribed with

murder. Every evidence necessary to
convince even an unbeleyina Saul, has
been furnished in retutatlon OF this charge
vet they continue to blat 1t in every man.

Wanted to See Hin.

On Thursday, about noon, stal.
wart chap, bearing evidence of rustic
birth, was standing quietly IN frant
of a bibulOus temple On st. Clair
street, with his hands in his pockets,
when three or four fellows who had
been playing court at the shrine OF
Bacchus approached him s1d essay
ed to have little fun at his expense.
One OF them stepped up to him, and
fiOurishing his "mauleYs'' in a hos
tile manner, declared that he was
just the man he had been looking for
for a week past, and he wanted tO
have that little affair settled then
and there. Our rural hero OWNED
their purpose and determined to
bring it to a focus at once AS quick
as thought, and before the bully
could realize the situation, he whip
ped out his right hand, dealt him a
sledge hammer blow in his optical
regions that sent him sprawling to
the earth. Then coolly turning to
the others of the party, he inqlired

wisely concluded they hadn't, and
assisting the fallen warrior to his

Suspension Bridges in China.

The construction OF suspension
bridges has been thought signal
achievement by the Western nations,
bUt ii China they are OF great an
tiquity, and many still exist. They
are made of iron chains and their
mode OF construction resemble in the
main that used in the " Eestern coun.
tries. They are, however, generally
confined to mountainous regions, and
span rivers whose navigation is in
terrupted. There ls one over q Tiv-
er in The Yunnam Province that is
said TO have been first built by one
famous Chu-kohliang more than two
Thousand years since, and there is q
second and much larger one in the
kweichoa Province, spanning the
River Pei. This latter was built
during the Ming dynasty. IL con-
sists 0f IHauy chains stretched across
the river aGii fastened firmly in the
stone On either bank; from natural
elevations above, other chains de-
pend, and are made fast to the span
and there are also chains fastened to
it from below, the object being TO
make the bridge as firm as possible.
A plank floor Is LAID on this bed of
chains; it is repaired at regular in
iervals OF from three to five years at
the imperial expense. The span of
this bridge is said to be several hun
dred feet.

Mineral Trade of the United States

4 From the New \ ORR Bulletlil.l 4sz-
! The latest foreign statistics estab
tish the important fact that the Unit
ed States contain greater amount
# useful minerals than all the other
countries o, the world combined
This fact will further appear on q
glance at the vast mineral resources
of, the country, as yet imperfectly
developed. In the East we have the
great Allegheny mountain range, con
taiuing the Appalachian coal and iron
deposits, extending from Pennsyi-
vania to Georgia and Alabama; IL
length about 800 miles and in average
width 100. Ia the west we have the
Rocky Mountain and Sierra Nevada
range stretching "a still greater dis
lance and abounding in precious met
ais of nearly all descriptions
throughout the Mississippi valley,
,Ad midway between these two ran
9es, the mineral deposits are practic
ally inexhaustible In coal the coun-
.ry is particularly rich. Oh workable
square miles OF coal area, Pennsyl
,ania has Is, 126; West Virginia,
$4,000; Kentucky, 1900; Tennes
see, 800; Aiab ,ma, 1900; Ohio,
$4,000; Indiana, 1900 I Illinois,
1900; Iowa, q, 600; Missouri, 2l,-
goo. tn known workable coal ares
oi the United States IS over 20O, 900
square miles, whereas the known
work aide coal area .of. all The sworlG
besides amounts 10 only 1000
square. miles. Great Britain, with
ALI her immense power OF production,
has only 6, ,195 square miles of work
able area, or one-half The coal area ol
Kentucky alone.
The ex;ent, richness and general
diffusion OF iron ores Ia the United
st ttes throughout the same districts
in which the coal abounds, are re
markabIe. Sterling Mountain, in New
York, Iron Mountain, Pilot Knob
Shepherd Mountain, in biissourI, aud
also the Lake Superior copper GepOs
its, are most noticeable. Oar depos
its Of iron ore are believed TO be
unequaled upon the globe The iron
ores of Great Britain. are q mere
trifle compared to those OF the United
States, aud, to successfully compete
with he-, we want nothing more than
cheap capital and cheap labor. This
is an iron age; the uses OF iron
increase every year in hoasebui!ding,
and in all branches of industry
Nearly all tie steamboats, on the
ocean are built of iron. Plenty OF
cheap iron, made III the West, would |
do more to develop the country, and
help everything else, than any one
other thing.
In producing the precious metals
the United States has attained a
proud pre-eminence. Although the
fact, unfortunately, is not noticeable
in our circulation, we produce more
Of those metals than any other coun !
try. The United States supplies
hy mining, about $4,000,
900 of gold, or half OF all the annual
supply OF the world, aud about $50,
900, 900 of silver, or about one-third |
of all the annual supply of the world,
and yet this business is merely in its |
Infancy. What it will be at the end
Of the present century, it is almost
to estimate.

An Accommodating Commodore

The following interesting incident,
says the New Haven Palladium, is
handed to Us by worthy veteran,
who ''knows whereof he speaks -
The following incident will 60 to
confirm, if confirmation be necessary,
the GOODNESS and fixed determination
of Commodore Charles Stewart, of
the Unite1 States navy: ''During
the last war with Great Britain, when
the United States frigate Constitu-
tion, then in his command, was CON-
ing into action with his Britannia
majesty's two ships of war Cyane
and Leyant, his first lieutenant, the
late Commodore Ballard, approach
ed him and said, Sir, the vessels we
are about to encounter are two frig-
ates.' Captain Stewart replied,
Would to God there were three of
them. Give the ship all her canvas,
that re may be enabled to bring
them TO action before night sets in
observing st the same time, i am of
opinion these fellows have caught
Tartar at last, If they never caught
one before The resuit of the COM
bat fully justified him in hiE opinion.
After the action the two van9aished
captains, Douglas and Gordon, ex,
pressed themselves in The hearing of
Captain Stewart, that if the encount-
er we're to take place again, differ
ent result might ensue. Captain
Stewart Immediately replied, Gen
tlemen, signify to me in writing your
wishes on that score, and / will,
without one moments delay, place
you in command of your ships again
and everything appertaining TO them,
as far as lies in my power.' Howev-
er, it is believed, and generally un-
derstood, that no request of that ma
ture ever came from them"

COMING.
BIT LENA SUMNER.
From the Cincinnati Chronicle. 4

From the Cincinnati Chronicle.l
Coming the cold, dark winter:
Coming, the driving sleet;
Coming, the shawlless shoulders;
coming, the shoeless feet
Coming, the dreary hail-stOnm;
coming, the dripping rain;
CoIhlng, with hunger's sorrow;
coming, heart-freezing pain.
Coming, the wintry bowling;
Coming, the drifting snow;
Coming, the winds sharp piercing;
Coming, unuttered Woe!
Homeless, houseless and friendless-
Full in the Christians eye
i gather the rags around me,
And lay Inc down to die.
Better to yield the battle,
Better to end the strife,
Better to die while living
Than live dying life.
Warming thy Christian graces
At the glowing, coal-heaped CRATE,
Can'st thou forget the wretched
Who hover near thy gate
When at night thy head is pilIowed.
z When slumbers WOO thee sweet,
U, canst thou forget the sinner
Whose bed Is in the street?
o, pity the friendless starving,
Who wander the dismal street!
No place TO pillow aching heads,
To rest their weary feet.
Uncared for, despised, unpitied,
Full in the Christians eye,
i draw my rags around me,
And lay NE down TO die.
