The Origin Of MOsIuit0cs.

The Red River Indians lave . curious
legend respecting the origin Of mosquitoes.
They say that once upon time there was .
great famine. and the Indians could get no
game Hundreds had died from hunger,
and desolstiSn filed the whole country.
All kinds of offerings were made to the
Great Spirit without avail, till two hunters
came upon \ white VI lverine, very rare
animal Upon shooting the white wolvcr.
iEe, al old woman sprans out of the skin,
and, saying she was . Manatou, promised
to 60 and live with the Indians. promising
them plenty Of game as long ns they treated
her we'll. and gave her the first choice Of all
the game that should be brought in. The
two indians sssentcd to this, and took the
old woman with them, which event was
inmedia lately succeeded by an abundance Of
game. When the sharpness Of the famine
had passed in the pro spcrty which the old
woman lad brought u the tribe, the Indi.
ans became dainty in their appetites. and
complained of the manner in which the old
woman took to herself all the choice bits: {:
and this feeling became 50 intense that, not
wishstanding her warning that If they vic.
lated their promise terrible calamity would
come upon the Indi,ns, they one day killed
her as she was scizing her share of fat
reindeer which the hunters had brought in.
Great CONSERVATION Immediately struck the
witnesses of the deed, and the Indians, to
escape the predicted calamity, boldly struck
their :ents and moved away to great dis.
tsncc. Time passed on without any catss'
trophc occurring. and, game becoming more
plentiful, the Indians again began to laugh
at their being deceived by the old woman.
Finally hunting party on long chase Of
rem Iccr, which had led them back to the
spot where the old woman was killed, came
upon her skeleton. and one of them in de-
rision kicked the skull with his foot. In an
instant small. spiral, vapor.like body arose
from the eyes and ears Of the skull, which
proved to be insects, that attacked the hunt
tcrs with great fury, and drove them to the
river for protection. The skull continued
to pour out its little stream. and the air te
came full of avengers of the old woman's
death. The hunters found all the Indians
suffering from the plague, and ever since
that time the Indians have been punished
by the mosquitoes, for their wickedncss to
their prescrvcr, the Manatou.

The average per capita in the last column
is roughly calculated by correspondent Of
the New York 7Imes. who calls attention
to the vide range exhibited in the average
assessment from $123 to each person in
North Carolina to f9S5 in Rhode Island.
The general low average in tho Southern
States will be noted. 1t is interesting 10
notice the difference in the average be-
tween States which would bc thought mos:
likely to agree, As for instance, New Jersey
aud Massachusetts,; Iowa, Wisconsin and
Minnesota; and Missouri and Pennsylvs
mia. The results in the Territories are
even more surprising, for examples, Utah,
supposed to be very rich. and Montana, the
former averaging $l52 per capita, and the
latter SGl6, which is higher than in any To-
calities in the country save iu Rhode Island,
New Jersey and Massachusetts. Of course
the entire result would be very different if
the vsiue Of the property in the different
States were assessed on the same basis in
oil. or if the real value Of property were
given in the place of assessed. In Illinois
it has been decided that the assessed value
of property is no more than one fifth its
real value. In other States it is two-thirLs,
in others one third, and in no State equal
to the real value The table is chiefly val.
liable for directing attention to this diffc-
renee in the usage of different States in As

Taking the testimony Of Mr.. Hurlbut

sents the opposition. VIC think it must be
admitted that the results of the expedition
have justified the course Of tho President,
and lave removed some of the most serious
objections Of its opponents. lie upseis
Mr.: Summers plea, that the rights Of 1.-THE
Republic of Domi .ica" are in danger. by
the statement of the simple fact that ''there
exists no Rcpublic of Dominica" As to
tho desire Of the people to he annexed, hc
says:
The land owners desire it, that their lands
may become worth having; the common
people desire it, that their lives may he safe
and their labor be sure of its reward. l can
not suppose, after all that have myself
seen and heard, that the Commissioners can
believe there exists in the country any such
thing as IN organized, intelligentcpposition
70 annexation.
In regard to the resources of the island,
Mr.. Hurlbut says he supposes the Commits
sioners Twill report with enthusiasm" and
that lit would, indeed, be difficult for them
to report otherwise" He clinches his testi'
mony by adding: ANY opposition to the
annexation of the island which rests upon
doubt of it's intrinsic value Us . possession
is simply absurd"
As regards the pccuniary obligations thai
will bc involved by annexation, he shows
that this bugbcar shrinks on examination
into comparatively small dimensions. The
total amount will be less than 81 SOC. 900.
Another serious objection to the acquisi'
ton Of San Domingo has been the climate,
of which the most extreme and unfavors'
ble statements have been made. Here again
Mr.. Hurlbut is . good witness. He says
speaking of the climate and health of ths
country: 80 b. .ss- -z@ eaitsaa, -
OF these subjects the Commissioner vii

was quite 80 particular in charging for
children, the man in uniform replied that
by law this road could charge adults but
two cents mile, while other roads could
fix their own price. Hence the New
York Central must make it up out of
children.
This reason might be conclusive did
not the public know that Commodore
Vanderbilt had watered the stock nearly
one-half to reduce it to par, thus doubling
his investments in that direction, since he
came to own the road; and then because
a wise provision of the law of the State
limited the charges for passengers to pre-
vent him from making three-fold gains on
his money, his ingenuity invents dodge
to skin it out of the infants, which the
law forgot to forbid.
All New England emigrants going
West, and especially all Vermonters, all
other things being equal, should go over
Gov. Smiths roads--to st. Albans, Og-
densburG, by lake or rsil-and let the
New York Central, in all its wealth and
power, look to New York travel, which is
vast indeed, for its support.
