into existence? Three hundred years ago De Soto's body, at midnight, was placed in vessel, Spanish built yes
 sel (?) and sunk in the midst of the river. His soldiers fearing that theif enemies would assail them if 1t were known that the great chieftain was no more. De Soto, so the old Spanish chronicler, whose story is reproduced by Irving, tells us, died near the mouth of the Arkansas, and here Cowdon discovered the boat which excited all these surmises. There is more than verisimilitude in this recital. Captain Cowdon is in the city, and proposes at an early day to return to the spot where the supposed Spanish vessel IS buried. He has agreed to bring 1t to this city, and if he finds within 1t the skeleton of a Hidalgo will not the name of John Cowdon and that of De Soto be inseparably linked together through all coming? De Soto discovered the Ms sissippi, and became immortal. John 1 Cowdon achieves infinitely greater
 wonder in the discovery of De Soto

GROWTH OF POPULATIoN.-ln view of the census just ordered by Congress, the following figures will be of interest to our readers:
 At the taking of the last census Tn 1860, the population of the United States was 31, ,443,321. And it was then estimated by the census bureau that in 1870 the country would contain 42. 329, ,432, in 1880 a population Of AZ, ,45O,241, in 1890 a population Of 54 45O.241. and in 1900 the vast aggre- gate of 100, ,355, ,S12, when the United States would embrace but 2o lnhabl- tants to the square mile, whereas the State of New York has already 94, and Massachusetts 173. Were the whole country peopled as Massachu- setts is it would have within It's bor- ders no less than 619,00O,0OO, souls, constituting nation incomparably transcendeng the greatest empire oi ancient sr modern times. Elkanah i N atson, Benjamin Eranklin's friend made out table of estimated poif@-ss. ton for every decade up to the yes 1900. and his estimates have thus fal held good.

A great deal is said about the

A great deal is said about the mityailleurs or mitrdilleuseS which the French people propose to employ ln the war. This apparatus IS a sort ot coffee-mill gun. We had several of the kind in the rebellion. A number of large rifle barrels are either grouped around centre or arranged side by side upon horizontal plain. These barrels are loaded at the breech by a mechanical arrangement which sup plies the cartridges. The loadidg and firing are done by turning a crank.- Such is the general character of the mitraiIleur. As our military readers will preceive, it is similar to the Cat ling gun and one or two others whose names we do not remember. When Col. Charles H. Van Wyck led to the war the regiment from Sullivan county and Green county, he had with him one of these machines. Gen. 5. F. Butler was also very much tlckled with them, he used to keep one or two at his headquarters at Bermuda Hun dreds to fire towards the enemy as a sort of professional diversion. As an offensive weapon these machines are of no practical value; but experts arc of opinion that they might be very use full for the defence of fortified place against strong party, where they could be fired at close range upon mass of men. It will, however, be as tonishing if they prove to be Of any ac count in ordinary battles.

How TO BE NoBoDY.-Young man it is easy to be nobody. Go to the drinking saloon to spend your leisure. You need not drink much now-just a little beer, or some other drink. In the meantime play checkers, dominoes or something else to consume time; then you will be sure not to read any useful book; or if you do read let it be the "dime novels" of the day. Thus go on keeping your stomach full, head empty and yourself playing timekilling games and in few years you will be nobody, unless you should turn out to be drnnkard or professional gambler, either of which is worse than to be nobody.

A Pennsylvania preacher has re- ceived the past year for preaching, a curry-comb, keg of yarnish and a dozen clothes pins, and yet he com plains. Surely a man of moderate ap- petite ought to be able to keep soul and body together with a dozen clothes pins, let alone the curry comb and varnish, which are mighty handy to have in house, the one to curry fa- vor, the other to make his prospects, look bright.

For a horse, give a tea cup full of flour (wheat flour) in a black bottle, filled with water, dissolve the flonr by shaking the bottle, and drench the horse. It will generally cure in five to ten minutes. For man, give a tablespoonful of fious in glass (tum- bler) of cold water. My word for it he will never take any other remedy.

IlIPORTANl4tAsaa4f55f SCOVERY.-Th cancer has long been disease beyond the power of the physician. It's treat ment has been empirical and unrelia- hle. The remedies employed have been painful, dangerous, and almost always unsuccessful. Under the cir cumstances, a discovery of a new method of treating cancer will be hail. ed with general satisfaction by patients and phsicians. At the recent annual meeting of the new Medical universi- ty, Professor Scott read paper in which he stated that repeated experi- ments had demonstrated the marvel ous efficacy of the application of chlor- idle of chrOmium-a new salt of this rare metal incorporated into stramoni- um ointment. This preparation in a few hours converts the tumor into per feet carbon, and it crumbles away The remedy causes no pain, and is not poisonous. It promises to alleviate much human misery, and we call the attention of the entire profession to the fact of its discovery.
