How AMERICA WAS ORIGINALLY PEo-
PLED-We find the following in q Cali
fornia newspaper
The advocates of the hypothesis that
this continent was peopled by i1nmi-
grants from the shores of Asia, by way
of the Aleutian Islands and Alaska, will
find encouragement in the telegraphic
report of the arrival at San Francisco of
some Japanese seamen whose junk was
disabled on their own coast, but who
were carried by the ocean current twen-
ty-fve hundred miles to the Adaho, off
the Alaskan shore One of the chief
obstacles to the reception of the theory
has heretofore been the admitted fact
that at the early period when the settle
ment must have been made the arts of
shipbuilding and navigation were too
little advanced to furnish the means of
making the ocean passage. A Japanese
junk, however, belongs, to the eiabry-
onic stage of these arts, and such YES
sci, disabled by shipwreck, can hardly
be supposed to have possessed sailing
qualities above the reach of the most
unintelligent shipbuilder The length
of the voyages, under such cireumstan-
ces, requiring considerable tonnage in
order to carry the necessary provisions,
has also been made an element of OBJ
lection. But these ship-wrecked Japan
ese We're nine months in making the
transit ut the mercy of the winds and
waves, and though twenty-three out of
twenty-six starved to- death, the survi !.
vors exceeded the number originally
planted in the garden of Eden, and pro-
vlded that one of the three was wom-
an and mother a priest, the continent
being found unoccupied, we do not see
any extreme difficulty in supposing that
they might have increased and multi
piled, overfowed upon the main land,
and finally found their way southwards
into Mexico, Central America and South
America, as the ancestors of the Aztecs
and the Incas are conjeetured to have
done. The conjecture has at any rate
received indisputable assistance from
the incident.

A SMALLPOX PATIENT BURIED ALIVE.
The Milwaukee Wisconsin, youches for
the following:
A few days ago man residing in
the Ninth Ward, named Ruskowsl1i, af-
ter being sick with the smallpox for
some time, died, as was supposed. Ac-
cording to the regulations recently pass
ed by the Board of Health he was buried
shortly after his deeease. His sister,
who, it seems, was not satisfied with the
hasty manner i'll which her brother was
disposed of. was SO worked up by the
circumstances, aud SO certain that all
was not right, that to satisfy herself she
had his body exhumed some six hours
after the burial. To her own Joy and to

He DID Nor WISH TO PURCHASE A
WIFE.-The following anecdote of the
eccentric John Randolph, of Roanoke,
is related by q writer in a Virginia
paper:
An old man told me that he lived near
the residence of Miss -, to whom it
was said MIR. Randolph was engaged to
be married. On one occasion he had
been at her residence short time, and
had left; and as it was said that the NAL
riage would take place shortly, he
thought he would go and inquire of the
old lady. She said Mr.. Randolph had
left in great haste, and told him to go
and see where, in his hurry he had cut
the reins of his bride. instead of un-
tying them 1t Itappears that it was pro-
posed that he should make marriage
settlement, whereupoD he said: 1T is
not my purpose to purchase. When I
desire to purchase 1 shall go to the cheap
est market-I shall go to Africa" With
this remark he left the house, went to
where his horse was tied, cut the reins
and Immediately departed.

WHAT ADVERTISING DID. Millaud, the
banker and newspaper speeulator, who
died recently in Paris, and who founded
the Petite Journal, which at one time had
a daily circulation of nearly half q mil
lion copies, was an enthusiastic believer
in the advantages of liberal advertising.
One day he had at his table nearly all
the proprietors of the leading Paris dali
lies. They conversed about advertising.
Millaud asserted that the most worth
less articles could be sold in vast quanti-
ties, if literally advertised. Emil de
Girardin, of La Presse, who was present,
took issue with him on the subject.
" What will yoH bet exclaimed Mil
land that I can sell in one week one
hundred thousand francs worth of the
most common cabbage seed under the
pretext that it will produce mammoth
cabbage heads ? All I have to do is to
advertise it at once in whole page IN
sertion in the daily papers of this city"
Girardin replied that he would give him
a page in his paper for nothing if he
should win his wager. The other news
paper publishers agreed to do the same
thing. At the expiration of the week
they inquired of Millaud how the cab
bage seed had fiourished. He showed
them that he had sold nearly twice as
much as he had promised, while orders
were still pouring in; but he said the
joke must stop there, and no further or
defs would be filled.

nouneed the, man dead, it was found
that indications Of life still remained in
the body of the buried one. He was at
once taken back to his house, and after
considerable exertiou and the applying
of proper restoratives, he was virtually
brought to life again. He is now living

Demosthenes Woodruff does not ap-
prove of wise children. She thinks it
contributes nothing to persons conse-
quence for him to be satisfied as to the
identity of his own father. The late
Madame Rachel, interrogated as to the
paternity of her children, remarked:
"That one is II. de Morny's son; that
one is son of my Lord; that one
it is not certain; but it don't matter,

A DRowNED MANS BODY RECOVERED
Last week man fell into the Detroit
liver and was drowned. The next day
attempts were made to find the body
with graphing hooks While the men
were thus engaged, buyer of junk
stuff, named David Bepito, an Italian
who happened to pass up the docks,
watched them for while and then as
serted that he knew of something that
would lead to the speedy graphing up
of the body. He proposed to get a
loaf of bakers bread, put some quick
silver into one end, and seriously as
serted that on being thrown into the
water it would float to point directly
over the body, and then stand still. He
was hooted at, and told to go about his
junk buying, not man believing in the
old woman's whim as they termed it.
Bepito went away and returned in
little while, threw loaf of bread into
the water near where the man went off
the dock, and in a moment called the
of two men below to the fact
that the loaf was spinning around like
top, it went partly under the dock, stood
still for moment, and then went half
a block down stream, turning right and
left, and, as vouched for by five different
men, stood nearly two minutes against
the current, which was floating drift
wood right by it. Very much excited
the Italian shouted to the searchers
to drag over the spot. They We're
further down, and it was half an hour
before they passed over the spot, but
when they did it was hooked into the
clothes of the drowned sailor, and he
was hauled to the dock.-DetroH Post.

APPLE PUDDING.-An excellent, SIM
pie pudding can be made in the follow
ing way: Pare, quarter and core apples
sufficient to- fill a small pudding dish
over one-half, and then poJsr in. water
two inches deep. Make a crust OF one
pint of -four, one-half teaspoonfui of
salt and a sufficient quantity of baking
powder; add only level teaspoonful of
lard and fiour enough 10 make wet
dough, which must be quickly rolled
ont, put over the pudding dish, and
placed on hot stove. Cover it tightly
with tin cover, ON which put a fiatiron.
The steam produced inside the pan
causes The apple and crust to cook very
rapidly; and fifteen minutes will be
found long enough Serve hot, with
hard sauce of butter and sugar.
