ALL THAT GL1TTERs is NOT GOLD"

/ met a maiden in the street
With rosy cheeks and figure neat;
At me thrilling glance she sent;
| stood aghast with woLderment.
Doubtful if on my heels or head,
Just remember that said,
With sundry other foolish things,
: 1t is an angel, minus wings! !"
/ courted her and we were we'd;
But after one short week had fled
/ said, "As sure as I'm sinner,
My wife has something mortal in her II
Six months went by. Alas twas clear
That had got her rather dear;
In fact, there could not be u doubt,
She was woman out and out.
A year, dreadful year has passed,
My eyes are opened wide Mt last
Morn, noon and night she works me evil;
| believe she is the very devil!

In an instant they were painting as
though suffering from extreme heat,
drawing different breaths,. gasping and
hinging OF those blankets which but q
moment before they had wrapped 50
tightly about them.
This then passed.
They began to bark like dogs. They
went down on all fours, and evidently
imagined that they were Of the canine
species.
Then they tried to initiate the motion
and crOaking Of frogs. After this they
went through performances too numer-
GUS to mention.
The two Indians who held the horses
looked on in horror, bewildered and stu
pefied, not knowing what to do. They
would have fled in their fright, but daF-
ed not leave their companions behind.
S&rignon stood calm, with frOWning
brows, watching the uprOar, himself the
presiding spirit Of the scene Ny COM
paHiOns were eonfOunded. Even some
Of those, as they afteTWard told me,
/ thought that Grignon was the devil.
At last GngnOn gave loud shout.
/ The Indians fell fiat on the ground.
/ They lay there for some time as Il
/ dead. Then GrignOn waved his arms,
and they rose to their feet. All looked
bewildered and frightened. With ter
rifed glances they regarded first Grig-
non and then one another.
The Indian is superstitiOus, like all
savages; in fact, like all human beings.
These men saw in GrignOn a terrible
demon, who could exert over them any
power which he chose.
He advanced toward them.
They recoiled.
He walked nm nearer .... ...
They turned and ran toward their
horses.
Grignon ran after them.
In frenzy Of terror each man flung
himself upon his horse. .
GrignOn shouted after them.
Away they went. They urged their
horses at the top of their speed.
Grignon followed them but short dis
tance. ..,..-.
Then he turned back and came into
our inclosure.
Gather up those bottles,' said he
Tackle up the cattle and let US be
marching.I
Instantly our men rose and obeyed.
Grignon took a heavy glass of whisky,
and then lay down in one Of the wagons,
utterly exhausted.
| We travelled all that day, and all the
next night, unmolested. GriRnon slept
long and soundly. After resting for a
time, we pushed on our teams, so as to
getas far beyond the hostile Indians as
possible, -
We saw nothing more of them.
They won't dare to pursue u.s. said
GEignon, confidently. They'll go back
and tell such story as will be the Won
der Of the savages for many long year.
Grignon was right. Not only did they
not pursue US, but, for all the remainder
Of the year, and for all the next, no
travellers on the route were mOlested.
4 don't see,' said I, how you manag-
ed to do those tricks on the open ground,
without any trouble
/ Grignon smiled.
tOnly clumsy performers use tables
said he. i could have done far more
wonderful things, but they would have
been thrown away on the savages. pll
reserve my good tricks for San Francis
co.,
And so he did for, of all the wizards,
magieians, and eonjurers that ever visit
ed the Golden States, none have won
such fame, or excited such wonder as
my friend GrignOn.

Rapid TolegrapbIng.

THERE was great rivalry between the
Western Union and the other telegraph
companies having lines between New
York and Washington, ID. CT as to
which should transmit most rapidly the
annual message Of the President, deliv-
cred to the Senate and HOUSE Of Repre-
sentatives on December 5th. The mes
sage contained about 1900 words, and
was transmitted over 10 wires by the
Western Union Company, dropping COP
les at Baltimore and Philadelphia in so
minutes, or at the average rate of 25
words per minute on each wire.
The entire message was transmitted
by the Bankers and Brokers and Frank
lin Companies in 20 minutes, employ
ing two wires each. This was st the
rate of SO words per minute.
The Franklin Compnies used two
wires until the message was completed,
and q third wire for Is minutes, the av-
erage time being 20 minutes, and the
average speed 2S words per minute.
The Bankers and Brokers Company
used two wires, the average time being
20 minutes, and the average speed IS
words per minute. One of these wires
averaged SO words per minute-Mr. Ben
jamin johnson sending and Mr.. /. 8.
Fitch receiving.
The result in the strike in January
last drove from the Western Union to
the opposition companies, greatly to the
advantage of the latter, some Of the best
operators formerly employed by the
former. The operators Of the B. 4 b,
and Franklin lines may justly feel
proud of their achievement and their
substantial demonstration Of superiority.

SCI Guess Pm the Man,

A farmer living in Oxford County,
Maine, went down to a town not 8
thousand miles from Portsmouth, for
the purpose Of purchasing a yoke Of ok
en-, as he had been informed that there
was a lot of very fine stock for sale by
one of the wealthy land owners of that
place. Arriving in the best farming dis
trict of the Cumberland county town,
our friend met man driving an OK
team, of whom he inquired:
Can you inform me where Mr.. Wall
lives|
There's number of Walls live
around here. Which one do you wish
to findY returned the stranger, who
was stout built, keen eyed man, habit
ed in home spun, but bearing in genar-
al appearance unmistakable tokens Of
ease and comfort, so far as finances were
concerned.
Il don't know what his Christian
name is pursued our friend but he is
the owner of some very fine oxen
Well, replied the stranger, they all
own pretty fair Oxen.'
but the one I wish to find has oxen
for sale.'
AS for that sir, I guess they'd any Of
'em sell if they could get their price,
But exclaimed the Oxford County,
man, the Mr.. Wall I wish to find Is
quite wealthy
Yes; well, I reckon there amt any Of
them very bad of, replied the other
with a nod.
My Mr.. Wall, continued our friend,
hesitating, has been represented to me
as being very close listed man, and
not sorupuIously honest in all his trans
With a curious twinkle Of the eye,
and a general pat upon the paunch Of
his near OK, he said: TO tell the truth
sir, guess they are a close listed set all
around, and I never heard that honesty
run in the family. Isn't there some
thing else?
yes, replied the searcher for oxen,
desperately, they say he has been
caught in the act of rObbing his own
brothers. chicken-eOOp.'
The stranger bowed and smiled.
I guess Pm the man; come with me
and will show you as fine stock of
cattle as you can find in the State; and
if you know what oxen are, there is no
danger of being cheated

simply IN partisan point OF VleWI am
not so stupid as not to know that every
outbreak of that kind only injuries the
party to which belong, only furnishes
the material for our opponents to excite
the passions of the people and to excite
the passions of Congress. l know it
full well; and if my voice could reach
every man who violates the law in the

erty, of freedom, and of constitutional

American heart. -
I have said, sir, I believe, all that I
need to say; but I will say one word
more about these Ku-Klux. Mr.. Presi-
dent, the darkest page in English histo-
~ is that which records the bloody eX-
ecutiOns of the men whose heads fell
from the block orwho were swung upon
the gallowsby the oaths Of Titus Oates
and his colfederates fos completely in
an alleged Popish plot 1t was sufficient
at that day, in the infuriated condition
of the public mind, to assert that there
was plot to have it believed, to assert
that there were conspiratOrs to give
credit to the statement, and to point
the finger of the infOrmer at any man
to send him to the scaffold or the block.
That was the state of things there. It
may be. but I hope it is not, thes there
are some men in this country who think
that it is only necessary to assert that
there is a Ku-Klux Khan to have it nni-
versally believed; to assert that there
are conspirators and murderers in the
Klan to find credit for their assertion;
and to point the finger to man to have
lit believed that he is of the Klan. 1t
may be that there are persons who en-
tertain such sentiments, and who, be-
lieving so, and thinking all fair in poll
tics, are therefore at all times ready to
bring up this raw-head and bloody-bones
and shake it in the head of an alright
ed Congress and afrighted people. I
am not one of them.

THE BABY OVER TBE WAY.
BY NARY Riley SMITH.

Across in my neighbours window,
With its drapings Of satin and lace,
see, meath a crown of ringlets,
A baby's innocent face,
His feet in their wee, red slippers,
Are tapping the polished glass,
And the crowd in the street look upward
And nod and smile as they pass.
Just here, in my cottage window,
In the rays Of the dazzling sun,
With patch on his faded apron,
Stand my own little one.
His face is as pure and handsome,
As the baby's over the way,
And he keeps my heart from breaking,
At my toilIlng, every day.
Sometimes, when the day is ended.
And sit in the dusk to rest,
With the face of my sleepy darling,
Rugged close to my lonely breast.
pray that my neighbor's baby,
Has not caught heavens roses, all;
But that some may crown the forehead,
Of my loved one as they fall.
And when draw the stocking
From his little tired feet,
And kiss the rosy dinlples
In his limbs so round and sweet,
Think Of the dainty garments
Some little children wear.
And frOWn that my God withhOlds them
From nstRe so pure and fair.
May God forgive my envy!
Iknew not what I said;
My heart is crushed, and humbled;
Ny neighbOr's boy Is dead!
/ saw the little coffin,
As they carried It out to-day;
A mothers heart is breaking
In the mansion over the way.
The light is fair in my window;
The flowers bloom at my door;
Ny boy is chasing the sunbeams
That dance on the cottage door;
Fhe rpses Of health are bIushing
On my darling's check To-day;
But baby is gone from the window
OF the house over the way!

Brisham's Way Out of the Dimeulty

1t y getting hot for Brigham Young. For the
first time United States Judge finds ninself
strong enough to make stand against polygamy
in the courts of Utah. The hope and belief of
the MoImons that no Mormon could be convicted
of bigamy because no Mormon woman could be
found TO appear as a witness TO her own discredit
has failed them. A case comes before Jud1e
Mexican where woman complains of polyga-
mist a. an adulterer, and demands his indictment
and trial. Several leading Mormons, among
them Elder Cannon, editor OF the church
paper, the Meas, who were summoned
on the jury gave the opinion that polygamy was
right and legal, and were set aside By the Judge
as not competent for jurors. For the first time
therefore, Gentle jury has been empanneled;
competent to deal with cases involving the
biGamy- POLY gamy question. The Judge charged
tbC m that they were to be governed BY the same
law principles which controlled from Maine Tn
Montana; that murder, arson, bigamy and riot
in Utah were as much crimes there as anywhere:
that the peeuliarites Of Utah are personal and
individual, and 10 Tot form part of any system
or policy. He made the further announcement
that those who disObeyed the laws shall be pun
ished, and that the men of influence who tram
PIE upon and defy the law and teach others to
do the same, viii be the first to be punished.
There is much covert wrath amongst the
ooInlOns AT thls unpleasant and ominous turn
Of affairs, but the time has Past when Brigham
can summon his DANTE gang to make short
work of obtrusive opponents. The growing
strength Of the secession, GOdbeyite Mormons;
the influx Of Gentiles into Utah in consequence of
tie development Of the mines; the close COM
munieation afforded by the Pacific railroad with
the outside world, have all served to break
down the power Of the Brigham Young party of
polygamist Mormons, and 1t looks now as If
the end Of polygamy was not far distant
With Bngham's death, and the succession
Of the Smith family (sOns of 10. Smith) to the
Mormon rule tie fan of polygamy would come
naturally, as they are avowed monogamists, but
its end is likely to come even sooner. Brigham
YOuDg's bulldog tenacity is tempered with no
little tact and cunning. When the worst comes
to the worst, and the strain Is too heavy to be
resisted, il is pretty certain that he will in his
capacity Of Prophet receive a"revelation, per-
hitting the MOTmons to dispense with the reIi-
gious cross and burden of pOlygamy, placed on
their shoulders for season as a Christening dis
persation- POlygamy was introduced bv 10.
Smith through revelation" and Brigham
Young can get rid Of it-when he wants to-in
The same convenient way.
