like the same part in another and if ten
Watches of one grade were taken apart,
and the screws, wheels, springs, &C., were
mixed together, ten watches could be
made by putting these parts together

VIEWS OF JUDGE BLACK.

It is conceded by all that Judge Jerc-
miab S. Black, Of Pennsylvania, is one of
the leading men Of the country lie has
been reported an uncompromising anti
Greeley man. This he is not. An out
and out Democrat he would like to vote a
Democrat into the presidential office, and
thus secure reform by aud through those
with whom he has so long aIiiiatcd-but
though believing in all this, he has Just said,
both Of measures and of men that
The amendments to tho constitution
must stand. 1t is true that they were Sc
cared by fraud aud violence, but that does
not matter now they are adopted. All the
governments that have ever bccn cstab
lishcd have been the result either of fraud,
violence, or accident * X
The effort to reform these evils certainly
deserves the assistance of all good and
patriotic mcn. While the cause seems
we'll nigh hopeless, still | believe that
great good can be done by arrcstiny at

A MYSTERIOUS LAKE-On the high
est peak Of the range Of mountains east of
Lamoillc Valley is a lake which, although
known to exist, has rarely been visited by
white men. We have heard of men who
have been there, but never has our thirst
ing vision teasted upon the form of Cau-
casian who had tho assurance to say that
he had seen the mysterious lake whose
waters kiss tho clouds and draw from them
the fountain which supplies the rivers and
streams in the vale below. But still it is
there. 1t is said by the most reliable In
liaus in that portion Of Nevada that!a large
body Of water exists behind the highest
peak in the range mentioned We can SEQ
from our window tho tabled spot. Around
its crystal waters the red man was wont,
in days of yore, to gather his household
gods and drink Of its waters, which had
such nutritious qualities that no other food
was required. In the marsh at the eastern
end of the lake were innumerable focks Of
ducks, while beneath were fish Of all sizes
and kinds. The shore of the lake is GOV.
cred with luxurious growth of every
type Of vegetation known to the temperate
zone. We announce our intention of drink
ing of its waters on the 4th of July. or as
soon as party eau be raised who will take
in wind enough before starting to last up
tho mountain and back.-ElkO Iadepc,s-

"THE OLD WoMAN."-It was thus a
few days since, We heard STRIPPING Of
sixteen designate the mother who bore
him. BY coarse husbands, wo have heard
wives so called occasionally, though in the
latter case the phrase is more often used
endearingly. At all times, as commonly
spoken, It jars upon the car and shocks
the sense. An "old woman" should be
an object of reverence above and beyond
most all phases of humanity. Her very
age should be her surest passport to court
eous consideration. She has fought faith.
fully "the good fight," aud come of con-
queror. Upon her venerable face she
bears the marks Of the conflict in all it's
furrowed lines. The most grievous Of the
ills of life have been hers; trials untold
and unknown only to her God and herself
she has borne inccssantly; and now, in
her old age-her duty dono patiently
awaiting her appointed time-she stands
more honorable and deserving than he
who has slain his thousands or stands tri-
umphant upon the proudcst fields Of vic.
tory. Young man, speak kindly to your
mother, and even courteously, tenderly
of her. But a little time and you will see
her no more forever. Her eye is dim, her
shadow falls graveyard. Others may love
you when she has passed away-kind-
hearted sisters, perhaps,or she whom of
all the world you choose for partner
she may love you warmly, passionateIy ;
children may love you fondly, but never
again, never, while time is yours, shall the
love Of woman be TO you as that Of your
old. trembling mother has boen.
