that a new furnance is construct

of two hundred tons of pig per

The FoRTREss OF G1BRALTER.-Until
you set foot on Gibralter you can form
no idea of its impregnability. Very
properly its real strength cannot be seen
from ship in the bay; only when you
land do you find that the sea wall bris-
ties with heavy guns and groans be-
meath piles of ball only as you traverse
its flank do you see how formidable
breech-loaders peep from every available
chink, and powerful mortars lurk behind
every convenient embankment. And
net until you penetrate the body of the
rock do you get any just notion of the
piece of military engineering
exhibited in its galleries" There are
tunnels ez cavated from the solid rock,
parallel to its outer side, but some thirty
feet therefrom. and large enough to
drive carriage through. They are in
two tiers, and comprise total length of
nearly three miles. At every thirty feet
or SO along them, spacious embrasures
are outhewn. that terminate in COM
ortholes, which look to spec
tator outside the rock like swallows
anest-holes in sand cliff.

TACT AND TALENT Talent is some
thing, but tact is everything. Talent is
serious, sober, grave, and respectable
tact is all that and more, too. 1t is not
a sixth sense, but it is the life of all the
five. 1t is the open eye, the quick ear,
the judging taste, the keen smell, and
the lively touch; it is the interpreter Of
all riddles the surmounter of all diff
ficulties-the remover of all obstacles
1t is useful in all places and at all times;
it is useful in solitude, for it shows a
man his way into the world; it is useful
in society, for it shows him his way
through the world. Talent is power
tact is skill; talent is weight-tact is mo
mentum; talent knows what to do--tact
knows how to do it; talent makes man
respectable--ta will make him respec-
ted-talent is wealth-tact is ready money
For all the practical purposes of life, tact
carries it against talent-ten to one.

dislike monitor, l hit ppcn the follow
ing plan of leaving them: placed IN
the chair the large, old fashioned slate
lit had been my father's), wrote upon
it the names of the sholars in the order
in which they sat, and arranged the
needle-work and reading-for I always
had some interesting work read aloud
every afternoon by some elder pupil
and then said: "Now, children, when
the clock strikes 5, leave your seats Or
derly. go to my chair. and place by each
of your names a unit for good behavior,
and a cross for bad. When l return l
shall anxiously look at the slate; and in
the morning. when you are all assem-
bled, I will read the list aloud, that
everything may be confirmed. But, l
trust you" On my return 1 visited the
school-roou and found but one cross
upon the slate. that where least expect
ed it--appeDded to the name of beau
tiful, open, bright, brave child, who
then promised much to the world, the
fact of her having rich parents being
her greatest drawback. She was the
last child in the school that l should
have thought capable of any misconduct.
The morning came, the list was read;
it proved truthful; but when l came to
this name, said: "My dear child, you
must explain. What is this ? What
did you do ?" Looking up to me with
those soulful eyes. and speaking to me
with soulful tone which ever made her
an object of sacred interest, she replied:
laughed aloud; laughed more than
once; 1 couldn't help it--because the

Seattle Morals.
We find the following in the last

We find the following in the last
weekly Courier, of Olympia.
A gentleman from Oregon who has
been taking look at the Sound speaks
favorahly of Olympia as compared with
other towns in the Territory. He gives
rather bad view of society in Seattle.
where gambling, drinking and the
- social vice" prevails to an alarming
extent in parts of that city The COM
mingiy of Indians, Chinese and debased
whites in dens of wee, is the worst
feature possible, and shows bad state
of morals. Our informant says that
white men sell whiskey to the Indians
without fear of punishment, and gam
bling does not seek the shadows of
night to hide from public view. This
gentleman contemplates locating in our
town soon. He thinks that the pros
poets for Olympia are good, although
the railroad should not come here.
Every citizen of Seattle is forced tt
confess the truth of this structure upon
our city. 1t cannot be denied that it is
the most prosperous and the most
vicious city upon the Sound. That the
rapid increase of business and the cir
culating medium has attracted here large
numbers of the most dissolute classes of
society, and the laxity Of those intrusted
with the enforcement of the laws has
made it the haven of the lawless.
Persons who have spent years upon the
frontier and in the mines say they never
saw gambling and prostitution as openly
practiced in any other town or settle
ment. Within the last ten days several
families who came here to settle, have
left for this cause alone, and gentlemen
looking for residence on the Sound, are
attracted here by the beauty OF the
location and the business prospects of
ne place, but repelled by the loose state
of pubic morals. Every property
holder and law abiding citizen of the
town is interested in taking active meas
ures to correct this scandalous state of
things.

The REsULr.-Without taking any
active part in any party organization.
we have the satisfaction of announcing
result in this county, if not entirely
satisfactory in every particular, at least
JULY equal to our anticipations. In fact
our share in the local contest was COM
pleted when the nominations were made.
When we took charge Of the DISPATCH
it was with the determined purpose of
eschewing party politics, and We have
adhered to that resolution without TAX
ing any neutral position in any matter
of public concernment, or attempting to
profit in any way through the success of
any man or party in the elections. We
found the Offices of the county under
the control of ring of professional of
fce-seekers and general dissatisfaction
among the people in regard to the man
agement of public affairs, and satisfied
that there was just ground for complaint,
VIC went in distinctly for breaking up
that ring and restoring the offices to the
people; and though few had any faith
in our success, and it was attended with
any amount of personal detraction and
Misrepresentation. it has resulted in
vitory beyond the hopes or expectations
of any who desired it. The rins-lead' :,
who was believed to be invulneral e,
surrendered and withdrew from the fieid
early in the contest, and his hief col
league was ingloriously retired by his
own party. The people have elected
an entirely new set Of county officers, to
none of whom is the taint of official cor
7Uption attached, and We have nothing
to regret in our own course in the mat
ter.
