A Hint for BOres.

Some time ago there lived a gen
tleman of indolent habits In Sussex,
who made business, in the winter
season, of visiting his friends exten-
sively. After wearing out his vel
come in his own immediate vicinity
last winter, he thought he would visit
an old Quaker friend, some twenty
miles distant, who had been school
fellow of his. On his arrival he was
cordially received by the Quaker; he
thinking his friend had taken SO much
pains to come SO far to see him. He
treated his friend with great atten-
ton and politeness for several days,
and as he did not see any signs of
his leaving, he became uneasy, but he
bore it with patience till the morning
of the eighth day, when he said to
him:
'My friend, I am afraid thee will
never visit me again"
"Oh, yes, I shall, said the visitor.
'I have enjoyed my visit very much.
I shall certainly come again"
''Nay," said the Quaker, '1 think
thee viii not visit me again"
"What makes you think I will not
come again?" asked the visitor.
eff thee does never leave, said the
Quaker, chow canst thou come
again?" .aG
The visitor left. a3

Best and Worst Climate for
COHsMmDtiVes.

! Prof. Andrews, of the Chicago Med
ical College, has been classifying the
medical facts contained In the Census
reports of 1860 and 1870, and from
these he finds that consumption and
cancers are two diseases which are
similarly affected by and prevail IN
the same regions, and that the two
laws governing their prevalence are
as follows:
First, these two diseases are abund
ant near the sea, diminish as you re-
cede from it; second, at equal dis
tances from the sea, they prevail
most at the north, and diminish as
you go south. From this it follows
that the best resort for consump
tive or cancer patient is some point
which is at the same time as far south
and as far from the sea as possible
Such place is New Mexico, where
the deaths from consumption are on
ly three per cent; or Arkansas, where
they are five per cent; while in New
England, which is colder and sea-girt,
they are 25 per cent. Entirely in
accordance with this rule, and con-
trary to the popular opinion, Mime
sofa is worse place than any other
State, having IA per cent. of deaths
from consumption, though this may
be because consumptives are sent
there to seek health. Mississippi,
Alabama, Florida, have each six per
cent; Georgia and South Carolina,
five per cent.

KENTUCKY.
LOUISVILLE, November 7.


The result in this State is still
doubtful, but the Democrats claim it
for Greeley by 5000 or 10000. The
Republican gains will average over
$50 to the county in the western and
southern portions of the State, and
the same ratio of gains in the other
districts Will give the State to Grant.
The vote for Grant will excede 100,-
900, and some of the Republicans are
claiming the State on returns receiv-
ed to-day.
A dispatch from Catlettsburg to the
Central Committee says the Demo
Gratis concede the election of Burns,
Republican, to Congress, in the Tenth
District. The election of Woods in
the Ninth is almost certain, and Brad
ley is probable in the Eighth. Re
turns from this district, however, are
very meagre.
Returns received this morning show
O continuation of the Republican
gains, and Greeley runs far behind
his ticket, while Grant runs ahead.

NOOdluIIl or Larrikin.

Our slang literature is soon to re-
ceive an additional word imported
either from Australia or California.
If it is brought from the frst-named
locality the new word viii be 'Larri-
kim" if from the latter place it will
be ''Hoodlum." In the complete, un
abridged dictionary of slang one
word will be given as the exact syn
onymy of the other. Either will
mean aman-for it is to be hoped that
the word will long remain masculine
who is an outlaw in O small way; q
person who sets at defiance all social
and moral laws and customs; being
who treats with contempt every word
Of decency, proprety and order. A
'larrikin," or ''hoodlun, is domestic
Ishmaelite, whose hand is ready to
steal, strike or thrust. Collectively,
they form q class found in all the
large cities, and occasionally one of
the order is to be found in smaller
places. They head mobs; take an
active part in riots; frequent prize
fights; and are parties in every brutal
exhibition. Individuals of this spe-
cies snatch money and goods from
children in the streets; steal at fires,
and drink liquor at bars without pay
ing for it. In Australia the word
'larrikiin" has come into common use,
and judge there lately commented
on the hardened and depraved condi-
ton of a prisoner, who confessedth
the name with its terrible significa-
ton was applicable to him. The
California word is of later origin, but
it is hard to take up paper from
that State without seeing this newly
coined expression.-[N. Y. World.

First Steam Voyage 10 Liver
pool.

The first steamship that ever cross
ed the Atlantic was the Savannah,
from Savannah, Ga, to Liverpool, in
1919. She sailed from Savannah on
May %, but her fuel having been
consumed in ten days, she did not
reach Liverpool until June %. On
April 20, 1888, the English steam
packets Great Western and Sirius ar
rived at New York, commencing a
new and expeditions mode of inter
course between England and Ameri-
ca. The Great Western, measuring
1,340 tons, made the passage in 1411
days, against head winds and a rough
sea. Each of the three vessels above
named were paddle or side wheelers.
The fastest passage to New York
from Queenstown has been made by
the Cunard vessel Russia, the time
being little short of eight days. The
best time to Queenstown from New
York was by the White Star vessel
Ad1iatic, in 7 days, IS hours and 55
minutes. The vessels are generally
timed to Queenstown, not to Liver
pool.

THE WORLD WOULD BE THE
BETTER FOR 1T.
BY NJ. II. COBB.

BY M. H. CoEB.
If men cared less for wealth and fame,
And less for battlefield and glory;
If, writ on human hearts, name
Seemed better than in song or story;
If men, instead of nursing pride,
Would learn to hate it and abhor it;
If more relied
On love to guide,
The world would be the better for it.
If men dealt less in stocks and lands,
And more in bonds and deeds fraternal;
If loves work had more willing hands
To link this world with the supernal;
If men stored up loves oil and wine,
And on bruised human hearts would pour it
If 'yours" and "mine"
Would once combine,
The world would be the better for it.
If more would act the play of life,
And fewer spoil it in rehearsal;
If bigotry would sheath its knife
Till good became more universal;
If custom, gray with ages grown,
Had fewer blind men to adore it;
If talent shone
In truth alone,
The world would be the better for 1t.
If men were wise in little things
Affecting less in all their dealings;
If hearts had fewer rusted strings
To isolate their kindred feelings;
If men, when wrong beats down the right,
Would strike together to restore it;
If right made might
In every fight,
The world would be the better for it.

The Milwaukee Sentinel, speaking
of the tract burned over in that State
last fall, says that the crops of all kinds,
for which seeds were furnished by
the Relief Committee, have given an
abundant yield, and with but few
exceptions those who returned to
farms, desolate and uninviting in the
spring, have an abundance for their
own use, and many of them a surplus
for market. Peshtigo alone will sell
ten to twenty thousand bushels of
wheat, and the Peninsula a much
larger amount. The greater number
of the twenty-seven school houses
burned are finished and occupied, and
the remainder soon Will be. The
roads are rapidly being cleared, the
burned bridges rebuilt, and the work
will soon be done. The school house
and road work is done through legis-
lative appropriation, and under the
direction of Governor Washbu1n,
who has personally inspected the
worst portions of the burnt regions.

Presidential Election.
LATER AND BETTER!
Grants Majorities Increasing!

We have received later and fuller re-
turns, which render it almost certain
that Virginia and West Virginia have
gone for Grant, and even Kentucky
is so close that it is now doubtful
whether Greeley has carried that
State
The majorities for Grant keep
growing larger, as fuller returns are
received. Pennsylvania is now report
ed at 123, 900, Massachusetts, $1,000,
and so on. The.rout of the Greeley
ties is complete and overwhelming,
and the Republicans are almost as
much astonished at the magnitude of
their victory as are the Greeley men
at their disastrous defeat.
We give below the latest returns
from each State:

The Discovery of Coffee.

Toward the middle of the fifteenth
century, a poor Arab was travelling
through Abyssinia, and finding him
self weak and weary from fatigue, he
stopped near grove. Then, being
in want of fuel to cook his rice, he
cut tree which happened to be Gov
cred with dead berries. His meal
being cooked and eaten, the traveller
discovered that the half burned ber-
ries were fragrant. He collected a
number of these, and on crushing
them with a stone he found their
aroma increased to great extent
While wondering at this he accident
ally let fall the substance in can
which contained his scanty supply of
water. Lo, what a miracle! The al
most putrid liquid was instantly pu-
rifed. He brought it to his lips; it
was fresh and agreeable, In mo-
ment after, the traveller had so recov-
cred strength and energy as to be
able to resume his journey. The
lucky Arab gathered as many berries
as he could, and having arrived at
Alden, in Arabia, he informed the
Mutt of his discovery. That worthy
divine was an inveterate opium smok-
er, who had been suffering for years
from the influence of that poisonous
drug. He tried an infusion of the
roasted berries, and was so delighted
with the recovery of his own vigor
that in gratitude to the tree he called
it ''cahauh," which in Arabic signifies
force

This State has gone probably 50,-

doubt that all the nine Congressman
are Republicans. The Legislature is
overwhelmingly Republican in both
branches.
Wayne County, in which this city
is situated, is astoundingly revolution
lied. The lowest Republican major
ity on the State or county ticket be-
ing 1000, and running from that to

This has ben hitherto almost an
impregnable Democratic stronghold.
The local county tickets through

BY WILLIAM C. BRYANT.
Ere in the Northern gale
The Summer tresses of the trees are gone,
The woods of Autumn, all around our vale,
Have put their glory on.
The mountains that unfold,
In their wide sweep, the colored landscapes round,
Seem groups of giant Kings, in purple and gold,
That guard the enchanted ground.
/ roam the woods that crown
The upland, where the mingled splendOrs glow,
Where the gay company of trees look down
On the green fields below.
My steps are not alone
In these bright walks the sweet southwest at play
Flies, rustling where the painted leaves strowl
Along the winding way.
And far in heaven, the while
The sun that sends the gale to wander there,
Pours out on the fair earth his quiet smile
The sweetness of the year.
Where now the solemn shade,
Verdure and gloom. where many branches meet;
So graceful, when the noon of Summer made
The valleys sick with heat?
Let in through all the trees
Come the strange rays the forest depths are bright
Their sunny-colored foliage, in the breeze,
Twinkles, like beams of light.
The rivulet late unseen,
Where pickering through the shrubs its waters run
Shines with the image of its golden screen,
The glimmerings of the sun.
But meath yon crimson tree,
Lover to listening maid might breathe his fame,
Nor mark, within its roseate canopy,
Her blush of maiden shame.

How Much a Fly Eats.

A curious calculation has been made by
an eccentric individual well known in Paris
for his peculiar antipathy to the fly. He
collected 8, 900 flies in a room measuring 70
cubic feet. On the floor he spread pound
ed loaf of sugar. At the end of four days
he went to investigate the result of his ex-
pertinent. There remained but spoonful
of sugar This statistician thereupon cal
culates that, sugar being at the rate of 10
cents a pound, fly costs the country 20
cents from its birth to its demise.
