One OF New York's peculiar outgrowths of

with round trip, and an ingeniously con-

brought to light. A society, called the
Association for the Prevention Of Gambling,

the Ostensible object of warning business

The inquiry into the disappearance of
Captain Alexander's bonds was resumed yes
terday in the Surrogate's Court.
Mr.. John G.. Butler testified, that on the
nineteenth Of October, he went with Mrs.
Burke to the Gardners', when Mrs. Gardner
said she didn't know that Captain Alexander
had any money but $3.50 to $780, which she
used In paying expenses; Mrs. Burke said it
was curious one who carried so much
money, should leave so little; Mrs. Gardner

The Washington correspondent Of the st.
Louis Republican telegraphs:

There was considerable amusement in the
House to-day, when Mr.. Randall, of Penn
sylvanis, arraigned General Butler for
the report of Mr.. Randslls declaration in
the House the other day that Butler was not
an honest man. It seems that Butler had
possession of the manuscript to revise his
own speech, and, coming across Randall's
sllusion, mutilated the report by cutting it
out, liberty which the proprietors of the
Globe declare to be without precedent
Buffers conduct excites indignation among
nearly all the members of the House.

DID GoD SEND You, SIR?-A gentleman saw
girl Both looked tired. They were dressed
poorly, but neatly, and were travelling alone
Toward noon the little girl got up from her seat
and presently he found her kneelng on the floor,
with her head bowed in the cushion. Was she
sick ? Did she find this an easy way to sleep?-
No; she was praying. "What were you doing,
my little girl ?' he asked, when she got up. 81
was saying, Our Father, who art in heaven, u"
she said. "And what were you saying it for
now ?" he asked again. 'I'm so hungry" said
the boy, land our luncheon is all gone"
The gentleman wished he had something in
his pocket but it was empty.
At the next stopping place he went out and
bought something himself for the children to eat
When he handed it to the child, "I knew it
would come, she said, looking up with blush
of JOY upon her face, "Did God send you, sir ?"
Yes, God sent the gentleman. The child did
not see how the cars were to furnish the daily
bread, " going along sol fastand had no pantry. But
the Son of God taught her to pray, "Give us this
day our daily bread )" and the little girl believed
it, She asked him, and God knows ever so many
ways to answer our prayers. You see he let
kind gentleman bring her some.
There is small word in the Bible of which
some people ask, "What does it mean p The
word is faith. What is faith?
1t is asking God, believing and trusting in
him. That is what the little girl did and it is
the kind of asking which God loves, and loves
to answer Child'S Paper.

Whdo di0 sae Man Sag?

Those who are in the habit of attending po-
lice and other courts ust have observed the
difficulty under which lawyers and judges
labor sometimes, in getting witnesses to testify
in legal form. The following, which took place
in Cincinnati court, is an amusing and per-
feet example. A man had been caught in the
act of theft and pleaded in extenuation that
he was drunk:
Court Ito the policeman who was witness
''What did the man say when you arrested
h;m?"
Witness-"He said he was drunk"
Court-"I want his precise words, just as he
uttered them; he didn't use the pronoun he did
he? He didn't say he was drunk"
Witness-"O yes, he did-he said he was
drunk he acknowledged the corn
Court-(getting impatient at the witness S
stupidity, ,)-"You don't understand me at all
want the words just as he uttered them
didn't he say, was drunk?"
Witness-( -(depreciatingl no, your hon
or He didn't say you was drunk; wouldn't
allow any man to charge that upon you in my
presence.
rosecutor-"Pshaw! you don't comprehend
at ALL His Honor means, did not the prisoner
say to you, Il was drunkP"
Witness-( ehectively)-"Well, he might
have said you was drunk, but didn't hear
him.
Attorney for prisoner-(b -(blandly,-"What the
Court desires is to have you state the prisoners
exact words, preserving the precise form OF
pronoun that he made use of in reply. Was it
the first person l, the second thou, or the third
person, he, she or it? Now then, sir, with
severity,) upon your oath, didn't my client say
Il was drunk p"
Witness-(getting aad,)-"No, he didn't say
you was drunk eithe,, but if he had, reckon
he wouldn't lied any. Do you 'spose the poor
fellow charged this whole Court with being
unk? ?"

MOTHERS SPEAK KINDLY.-Children cat,

MOTHERS SPEAK KINDLY.-Children catch
cross tones quicker than parrots, and it is
much more mischievous habit. When mother
sets the example, you will scarcely hear
pleasant word among the children in their
plays with each other. Yet the discipline of
such a family is always weak and irregular.
The children expect just so much scolding be-
fore they do anything they are bid, while in
mother or the decided look of her steady eye
is law, they never think of disobedience, either
in or out of sight. 0, mother! it is worth
great deal to cultivate that excellent thing in
woman" low, sweet voice. If you are ever
so much tried by the mischievous or wilful
pranks of the little ones, speak low. 1t will
be great help to you to even try to be patient
and cheerful, if you cannot succeed Anger
makes you wretched, and your children also.
Impatient, angry tones never did the heart
good but plenty of evil. Read what Solomon
says of them, and remember he wrote with an
inspired pen. You cannot have the excuse for
them that they tighten your burdens any;
they make them only ten times heavier. For
your own, as we'll as your children's sake,
learn to speak low They will remember that
tone when your head is under the willows. So,
too, will they remember harsh and angry
tone. Which legacy will you leave to your
children?

BEAUTIFUL AND TRUE.-The late eminent Judge
Sir Allan Park, once said at public meeting in
London, "We live in the midst of blessings till
we are utterly insensble TO their greatness and
of the source from whence they flow. We speak
of our civilization, our arts, our freedom, our
laws, and forget entirely how large portion is
due to Christianity. Blot Christianity out of the
page of mans history, and what would his
laws have been--what his civilization Christi
anity is mixed up with our very being and our
daily life; there is not familiar object around
US which does not wear different aspect because
the light of Christian love is on it-not a law
which does not owe its truth and gentleness to
Christianity-not a custom which cannot be
traced in all its holy, heathful parts to the Cos
pei"

The Pasture Land of the Continent.

Mr.. Clapp, Of Pittsfeld, who has just passed for
the third time over the Pacific Railroad, writes
thus enthusiastically concerning the great graz
ing fields which flank the Rocky Mountains:
"Sixty miles east Of Cheyenne we enter what
the plains men call the best grass country in the
world The valley, bluffs and low hills are
covered with luxurious growth Oft bunch grass,
one Of the most nutritious grasses grown. Stock
thrive in this section all the season without care
excepting what is necessary to prevent them
straying beyond reach Old work oxen that has
raveled 2 800 miles ahead of the freight wagon
during the season. have been turned out to winter
by their owners, and by the following July, they
were rolling fat, fit for beef. This country is
destined to become-and the day is not far dis
tant-the great pasture land of the Continent
There is pasture room for millions of cattle in
this unsettled country, and then have grazing
land enough to feed half the stock in the Union.
This grazing section extends for about 700 miles
north and south on the eastern base of the Rocky
Mountains, with an average width of 200 miles,
From the base of the mountains nearly across
this grazing belt, cattle find abundant water
Springs abound in various sections, so that no
very large section of land is devoid of natural
watering places The grass grows from nine to
twelve inches high, and is naturally nutritious.
1t is always green near the roots, summer and
winter. During the summer the dry atmosphere
cures the standing grass effectually as though
cut and prepared for hay. The nutritive quail
ties of the grass remain uninjured, and the stock
thrive equally well on thed dry feed. In the win
ter what snow falls is very dry, unlike that
which falls in more humid climates. 1t may
cover the grass to the depth of few inches, but
the cattle reeas',J remove il, Fesching 5Se grass
without trouble The cost of keeping stock in
this country is just what it will cost to employ
herders-no more. With the railroad 10 trans

is there to prevent immense fortunes from being |
realized by stock raising? Already Colorado

during the construction of the road. Heinforms |
me that he is prepared to sell 5, 600 head or more

months, for three cents pound, Eross weight.
The cattle are now feeding on the bottom lands |
of the Platte river. No drought which has been |
experienced in these territories has ever seriously
