with, "By 10. Old fellow, if you think that

suffering In the West.

Gentlemen who have recently been on

most painful apprehsnsions of the suffer.
ing which must have been experienced by
the people in the new settlements in
Western Kansas and Nebraska Col. Ma
son, chief engineer of the St. Joseph
bridge, who was at Whites Camp, in
Marshal county, whittier he was called
on business connected with the stone
being brought from that place for the
piers OF the bridge, was caught by the
storm of Friday, the Goth inst, and re.
mained for eight days unable to reach
this city. He thinks there was full
twelve inches Of snow in that locality
His own experance in traversing a dis
tance of mile and half from the camp
to the railroad, in the midst of the storm
convinced HIM of the terrors of the prair-
les IN such time. Being unable to get
train for st. Joseph he had to return to
camp. Disregarding the desire of COM
panion to attempt to go straight from
point to point he followed a stream which
he knew would lead him to the shelter
he sought, and this he IL. certain, savedhim
from being lost on the prairie, q peril
which all who are acquainted with snow
storm on the plains will understand. No
mortal could see or keep his course.
Col Mason had heard many reports of
loss of life and of even scores of cases on
the solomon, as to the truth of which he
can only express an opinion based upon
the probabilities from what he saw.
Great and terrible suffering, beyond all
question, has been endured by wayfaring
people and new and scantily provided
settlers in that remote and now isolated
region.
The authorities Of Kansas are moving
to alleviate the suherings of the prairies,
but succor as to many will, alas, come too
late. 1t is however, proper that energetic
efforts should not be abated till full inves-
tigation be made in all the new settle.

Young Lady's Fancy.

From the New Albany (lnd.) Ledger.
A young lady named Almeda Dobson,
aged about 20 years, had a very singular
presentiment of approaching illness yes
terday evening. 1t seems that she was
requested to sit up with the corpse of Mr..
Luther Whitten's child last night, and,
previous to leaving her home in the low
er part of the city, some remark was made
by her sister in regard to her sitting up,
having to work he next day Miss Dob
son playfully remarked that they, mean
ing her sisters, might have to set up with
her before tomorrow night. No attention
was paid the remark, but it Gas literally
verified. Miss d. went to Whittens
house, and sat up until 3 o'clock this
morning, when she remarked that she
would take some rest, as she had to work
today She then sat down in a chair and
in few moments was seized with nerv-
Gus paroxysms. She was placed in bed
and at last accounts the disease was as
summing an alarming character, it re-
qulring three or four persons to hold her
in bed

The Japanese have fire works made
expressly to be let off by daylight. A re-
cent festival in Japan, at which displav
of these ingenious toys We're exhibited, is
thus described in the Yokohama Herald:
"The second day was occupied with exhi
billions of the ingenious daylight fire works,
of the manufacture Of which the Japanese
appear to be the sole masters. As usual.
these consisted mostly of bombs, which,
exploding high in the air, discharge some.
times various colored jets of smoke, and
sometimes closely folded packages of wire
and paper, which unfolded themselves
into parachutes of great bulk and symmet-
rical design. They were sometimes fish,
which swan leisurely through the atmos-
phere to the ground; or snakes, which
writhed themselves away over the tree
tops; or great birds, that lowered kite-like
and motionless for an incredibly long time.
Occasionally they took the shape of cot
tages, temples, human beings, magnified
crests of daimios, trees and fowers-al-
most everything that lively imagination
could suggest. The smoke figures, how
ever, were the most amusing. One of the
most frequently attempted was cuttle-
fish. with body of thick, fuliginous black,
and arms Of lighter hues. OF course the
illusion was very brief, the wind net allow
ing the smoke to remained undisturbed for
more than few seconds; but while it last
ed it was perfect"

A TALK ABOUT BEEF,

1t seems to be stubborn fact that the
farther one gets away from the cattle grow
ing regions the better beef he gets. In
New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore
the housekeeper can find the best beef in
the United States. Going west, when you
strike Cincinnati, perceptble letting
down in the quality of roasts and steakes
is discernible, though the consumer can
worry down his portion without suspi-
cion that the butcher has infringed the
Goodyear patent. At Indianapolis the
deterioration is quite marked, and in ST.
Louis the beef is simply Internal. The
vast prairies of Illinois TEEN with cattle,
and there is no better cattle breeding coun-
try in the world than Missouri. Yet the
hbrous, insipid, cartilagnous stuff sold by
the st. Louis butchers would rot on the
hands of an eastern dealer. Missouri ships
its cattle to New York and eats Texas
grstle. What these Texas beasts were
created for is one of the unsolved problems.
There is an immensely of osseous struc-
ture, and tropical luxuriance of horn,
combined with the minimum of flesh and
fat. The body is large, but it is all hol
low, and neither male nor female is pre-
disposed to the accumulation of fat. The
beast has tremendous amount of vital
energy, and speed that is marvellous. If
they could be broken to the saddle, they
would far eclipse the performances of the
Sau Domingo bulls, but the motion would
kill man in days riding. There is not
butcher in St. Louis who will confess to
killing and selling of Texas CATTLE and
scarce one who uses anything else.

web, ready for the cutting machine.
This machine, which is auxiliary to the
Fourdrinier machine, is admir- ably simple
and ingenious. 1t consists, in substance,
of long knife fixed in the edge of cylin-
der. The paper, in winding off the reel,
passes under this cylinder which at every
revolution brings down the knife and di-
vides the paper. At the same time, if
required, cutting edge, passing round
the middle of the cylinder, divides the
paper lengthwise; SO that at each stroke of
the knife two sheets fall off. In the case
OF the Ledger these sheets are twice the
size of the paper, and are again divided in
the printing office.

THE YOUNG WIDOW.

She is cunning-sometimes witty,
Free and easy, but not bold;
Like an apple, ripe and mellow,
Not too young and not too old.
Half-inviting, half-repellent,
Now advancing, and now shy;
There is mischief in her laughter,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature;
She is schooled in every art,
She has taken her diploma,
AS the mistress of the heart!
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile.
Oh. maid is sometimes charming,
But widow, all the while!
Are you sad oh, then how serious
Will her pretty face become!
You are angry; she is wretched,
Saddened, friendless, fearless, dumb
Are you mirthful? how her laughter,
Silver sounding, will ring out?
She can lure, and catch and play you,
AS an angler does trout!
All! old Fossils" nearly fifty,
Who are plotting, deep and wise;
Ye Adonises," of twenty
With the love light in your eyes!
You may practice all the lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
But | know little widow
Who can win and fool you all!

of the erratas into which they were liable
and undoubtedly did fall, would be making
ourselves the recipients of impaired knowl-
edge alone, and would be living on the
dying energies of our predecessors, which
is not a natural condition for the noble
spirited and high toned yonng America,
who has been used to free speech and
undenied liberties. How necessary we
must admit to make earnest and devoted
men and women. And in the public school
room they are to be started, and since the
start is all in all, how important are the
first steps. If you should fail in making
the right impression at first. Ifyou should
fail to create thirst for knowledge, or neg
lect to give it high moral tone, you I'M
doubtedly throw a gloomy prospect before
the little minds which will tend greatly to
discourage them in their little efforts
While, if you had made every prospect
bright, by throwing halo of mirth and
enlivenment in their midst to cheer them
on in their tiresome labors, you would re-
move many from the ignoble letters of is-
norance to the beautiful,and improved fields
of knowledge; from the darksome and de
graded paths of want and superstitution,
to the gardens of plenty and the homes of
peace, and the dwellings Of the educated.
Upon the pupils of the public school, all
the positions of honor and distinction will
involve at some, not far distant day. Re
member that, those who are to represent
US, are those who are now under our care
and instruction. We know that those who
have previously filled the positions OF
worth, those who are filling them to-day,
are persons who are, or should be, well
qualified, and in this progressive age which
we live, to compete with the advancement,
we must necessarily start those under our
charge in paths which will lead to real
development and most fully mature their
active minds and growing talents. l do
not hold it necessary to make the pupil do
all, but you cannot work out their pro-
blems for them with benefit to their rea-
soning powers any more than by your
prayers you can gain for fellow man a
heavenly abode.
Let them depend ON their own abilities
and then they are improved. You do their
thinking for them, you are improved, they
are impaired, you are wiser, they are none
You may now think this the platform of
an indolent teacher; but you have enough
to do if you find out his ideas in regard to
different subjects, and he is right, inform
him, if wrong, show him the error. Give
him an idea, but not do his work. You
must correct his erratas and thereby save
him from false impressions. You must
give him the benefit of your experience to
prevent encouragement. Study well hui
name nature SO as not to conflict with what
may be his main dependence. Many, the
ablest, have become the weakest, by being
acted on injuduciously.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1872-11-16

Never get angry. 1t does no good;
and those who indulge in it feel no better
for it. 1t is really torment; and when
the storm of passion has cleared away, it
leaves one to see that he has been extreme
ly silly, and has made himself silly in the
eyes of others too. Who thinks well of an
ill-natured, churlish man, who has to be
approached in the most guarded Way
Will a bad temper draw customers, pay
debts, and make creditors better natured ?
An angry man adds nothing to the welfare
of society. Since then, anger is useless,
needless, disgraceful, without the least
apology, and found only in the bosom of
fools, why should it be INDUCED at ali?

PAIRoTs.-The language of the parrot
is not destitute of ideas. That this bird
cannot form, like us, chain of reasoning is
true; but to say that his language is with
out an idea is impossible. When you ask
a parrot if he has breakfasted, he knows
perfectly well how to answer you, if he has
satisfied his hunger. He will never tell
you that he has breakfasted when it is not
the case; at least, yod cannot force him to
say ''no," when he ought to say Eyes"
