The National Inteligercer, whose demise
was announced in the Sun last Friday, was
started in 1900, in Washington, on the ruins OF
Ia paper translated to that city, and once known
as the Independent Gazetteer. The Intelligent
Ger then belonged to Mr. Harrison Smith. In
1907 Mr.. Joseph Gales secured an interest, and
in 1910 Mr.. Smith left the firm, and MIR. Gales,
becoming sole proprietor. tookinto partnership
his brother-in-law, William Winston Seaton.
In January Of 1918 the Intelligencar was first
Issued daily. For eight years subsequently
Gales and Seaton were both editors aud report
ers Of their papers, and may be fairly credited
with being the patriarcbs Of Congressional
reporting. One Of them attended the House
and the other the Senate, and both received
marked courtesies from the of6cers OF those
bodies. For twelve years one Of the Intelf-
gencer's editors, Mr.. Seaton, remained Mayor
Of Washington City, and rarely has ever an
elected officer been 80 compllmeDted. The
Intelhgencer's Register Of Debates" was once
a high authority in politics, and the 1ntelligen-
Ger itself has, for nearly half century, malr-
tanned position of staid respeotabillty.

Characteristics OF tho Coolie.

The following is an extract from letter
written to friend in Charleston in 1866,
by an American gentleman Of high eharac-
ter, then living in Havana. It is clear and
to the point:
81 have spoken to several intelligent plan
ters (sugar,) who have for years employed on
their estates Chinese in connection with me-
groes, and the information I give you you may
rely ON. In getting them it is well that they
should be between the ages Of f16 and 2S years,
and from the country agricultural districts in
preference to the cities. Most OF them can
read and write, and many Of them are, quite
we'll educated. They are quick, intelligent and
cleanly, have bat once to be told thing, and
have remarkable facility for learning trades.
They are strong and will do as much labor as
q negro here. Some few planters employ them
exclusively on their estates, and raise more
sugar than those employing an equal number OF
negroes. These, however, generally stimulate
them by dividing among them small per-
centage of the proceeds Of the crop. They
are very docile. Their introduction has been
profitable on the island, and those to whom I
have spoken GALL planters and some Ameri-
cans J think they will also do well in the South
ern States. For farming, gardening and
working machinery, they are excellent. This
information is authentic"

One day there was great humping in
my cellar, and if you had gone down
there you would have seen that one of the
windows had been opened, and that sticks
OF wood, some square, some round, some
three-cornered, big and little, knotty and
clear, all sawn the right length for the
stove, were pouring in through that win
dow; and every stick as it came down
seemed to say, Stand clear, or you'll get
hurt" So l stood clear, and let the
workers have it all their own way
l suppose the one who sent it thought
that splitting it would be good exercise for
the minister, and he thought 80 too. So l
went at it. But pretty soon big stick
turned up, full of hard knots on
every side l fancied that one of these
knots looked like an eye, and that it kept
watching me as l picked up one stick after
another, and left it untouched. In fact, it
almost seemed to say, "Split little sticks,
if you have mind, but dare you to
touch me-"
1t was great annoyance to see it there
every day but the question was how to
get rid of it. 1t was too good to be
thrown away, and it was too big to 60
into the stove My only course was to try
to split it. So one day when l felt strong
in my bones, laid it on the block with the
eye up. Then putting all my strength
into my arms, sent my ak fair across the
eye, and through it went
TO my surprise, the old stick split more
easily than many others before it. And
then could not help thinking how true
this is all through life. How often do men
and boys fancy that some duty is very
hard, and work all around it, and fear to
touch it, hanging back until they can do 80
no longer, and then make good effort,
and find that it is real easy, and that they
have had all their troublesome fears for
nothing.
Boys, remember that knotty stick.
When you have any work to do, don't
stop to think how hard it is. but take hold
at once bravely; hit it fairly in the eye,
and, ten to one. you will be through be-
fore you know it.

Encounter Between a Sword Fish and
Sperm Whale.

A correspondent of the Petaluma Jour
nal and Argus, of April 18th, relates the
following singular incident:
A novel sight was witnessed few days
since by Mr. Gafftny, who lives near Rod
oga Bay. While blowing near the coast,
his attention was directed to an unusual
commotiOn in the water, nearly mile
from shore, which proved to be a conflict
between five swordfish and sperm whale.
The ocean was quite calm, and as they
neared the shore their movements
could be plainly seen. The whale
was no match for his antagonists, who
seemed to understand his only means
of defense, and displayed considerable
knowledge of tactics in parrying with
their formidable adversary. In making
their thrusts into mis- sides they would
keep clear of his tail, one blow of which
would have been fatal to them. With
maddened fury the huge monster of the
deep would strike right and left, causing
the water to boil by the force of the blow
and then he would dive deep to escape
the relentless fury Of his tormentors, bit
he was followed and soon brought to the
surface. Deep gashes could be seen in
his side, and the blood flowing freely. The
fight was witnessed for nearly an hour,
when the whale, in the agony Of despair,
started for the shore, fiinging himself upon
some low rocks, and soon died from the
effects OF bis wounds Gashes two feet
deep and six feet long were made in his
sides. Many in this city went to sec him.
he was between fifty and sixty feet long
The third day the tide rose high enough
to float him from the rocks, and he flOated
out to sea-
