We are led to form our estimate of our
public men from the pronounced opiII-
ions of the press and rare is the instance
that jealousy of success or bigotry of
opinion constrains them to misrepresent
the real merit; never to subserye per-
sonal ends and seldom to please politi-
cal faverites. As they are the only means
by which people become familiar with
the events of the day they should be sus-
tanned and supported as an encourage

think it a wrong practice indulged in by
the people in bestowing their patronage
upon papers published beyond the linn

the reason that the news obtained is re-
ceived sooner by paper published at a
distance; for the facilities of procuring
information by telegraph and otherwise
afford papers printed in the State the ad-
vantage of obtaining news and furnish

izing our own papers they become bet

editor is enhanced i'm proportion to the
support he receives. The topics that
most interest the people can be fur

county papers with equal alacrity we
do others, they would furnish the more
interesting reading material at less cost
than that obtained from papers

WERE it susceptible of demonstration

most influence upon any community
the commission of crime or the manner
in which public journals usually an

the Press is certainly one of the greatest
boons secured by our peculiar eivillza-
ton and our republican institutions,b ,but,
after all, when reading many OF the
leading papers of the day, one cannot
but wonder whether it would not De
better if there could be required some
guarantee that Liberty should not de-
generate into License. In almost every
daily or weekly publication the detailed
| report of some horrid crime or sickening
brutality appears, embellished by sensa-
/. tional analysis and treated with flip
| pant lightness, chosen and employed in
order to successfully pander to grossly
| immoral taste. Nor does it appear to be
sufficient that these reports should rest
with blanoning forth the perpetrators
of these offenees-their victims must,
perforee, submit to an invasion OF their
houses, a revelation of their private
lives. and dissection of even their most
sacred thoughts and feelings. lmpossI-
BILE as it may be to prove by tabulated
facts the evil effected by all this vicious
matter there yet remains conviction
that the familiar dealing with narratives
of crime cannot but dull those firm feel

tiyated by every enlightened communi-
ty. 1t cannot fail that these papers, en-
tering the house and family circle, must
induce an appetite for startling and sin.

THE latest reports concerning the pro-
gress of General Stanley's Yellowstone
expedition arrive by way of letters, re-
ceived at Omaha, and bearing date near
the end of July. From these accounts
it appears that the members of the party
have been compelled to undergo consid-
cradle hardship by reason of the in
tense heat and the condition of the
route which abounds in rivers to be
forded and steep banks to be climbed by
men and mules. alike. Although a
large part of the country. through which
they have passed, is infested by bands
of hostile Indians, the expedition has
encountered no impediments on its
march, except that in some few localities
near Davis Creek for eXample-the
nature of the region is such as to re-
quire constant vigilence. On July 9th
the Bad Lands were entered. Apparent
ly, the writer says, these do not deserve
their name, being well covered with
weeds and grass very picturesquely in
terspersed with rugged and vrriously
colored hills that are capped with vol
canic matter. Possibly, however, the
writer goes on, the "badness" errone.
ously ascribed to the country comes
from the fact that it abounds in rattle
snakes. Altogether the command
seemed to be getting along very nicely
and it is there expected that the survey
will be completed by the first of Octo
ber at latest.

Angles.

An angle, by definition, means "any-
thing BENT" therefore, any two lines
extending in directions parallel to each
other will if their course be altered in
the least, at some future time by their
prolongation form angles.
Angles, taken in the order of their
magnitude, are right, acute or obtuse.
A right angle is formed by horizontal
line meeting one perpendicular to it.
This angle is most to be preferred OF the
three. The lines stand out firm and
bold without any warning, telling you
plainly what you may expect of them.
You can always deal better with
straightforward angles than any
others.
The next is the acute angle, formed
by horizontal line meeting one which
leans toward it half as though the fact
of its forming an angle with the other
were not fully established. This is the
most discouraging Of all angles. You
look at the lines and think they might
at least by some means unite; but no
thing but tickle, wavering, acute an
gle.
The third and most obstinate is the
obtuse angle. The one line meets the
| other daintlly, keeping its other extrem-
| ity at the farthest possible distance con-
| sistent with an angle, as if afraid the
two ends might by some chance meet.
The two lines could never coincide-the
repulsion between them is SO great, the
oblique line seeming to recon more and
more, as you lengthen the lines, from
the honest horizontal line. But you
| say, you might shorten the lines down
| to the point of union; but that is anni-
hilation form individuality, and in that
case you are not dealing with an angle,
but an atom of an angle. Yet the acute
and obtuse angles may be converted in
to one made to equal two right angles,
by prolonging four honest horizontal
lines and meeting the two angles, which
is far better than letting them remain as
they are. for reasons which will be snb.
sequently shown. There are also two
very common angles called angles OF
incidence and refractiOn.
1 An angle of Incidence is formed by a
ray of light meeting surface. These
angles are very selfish, always receiv.
ing, but never giving. An angle of re-
fraction is formed by a surface sending
out ray of light. These are noble an

A recently published tabulated state
ment, of the progress of railroads in the
United States enables US to condense
some interesting information in that re-
gard. From this report we learn that
since the year 1S4S, when there were
only about 5000 miles of completed rail-
roads in the country, the railroad sys-
tenn of the United States has increased,
on January 1, 1873 to II 900 miles in ac-
tual operation, with 5000 more in pro-
cess of construction. In 1858 there were
$1,000 miles of road built; in 1869, Al, :
600 miles and since the war the half OF
the whole has been constructed and put
i'm operation. The average growth for
the last FIVE years has been nearly 5000
miles annually. At a rate of $40, 600 per
mile the cost of the completed roads
>Aould be perhaps $4,000, ,OO0, 900, while
those in progress and not completed will
cost 1890, ,OOO, 600.

THE feeling which has led to the orga-
nization of pilgrimages to Paray-le-
MORTAL seems to be no less strongly de-
veloped in France than in England.
From one of the companies assembling
for this purpose an address was recently
sent to the Pope, signed by one hundred
of the leading spirits of the expedition,
mostly Deputies of the National Assem-
bly, of France under whose auspices the
project has principally been promoted,
and the Pope in reply has published a
formal answer. A late number of the
Univers contains both the memorial and
the response. The most noticeable fea-
ture of the former is its deep spirit of
religion and personal devotion to his
Holiness. ssOur most ardent desire" it
says sis the triumph of the Church and
our patriotism is inspired by the hope
that. in accordance with historical recol-
lections, the Church of France, her eld-
eat daughter, will acquire, Simultaneous
", one by means of the other, prosperi-
ty, peace, greatness and liberty. Pros
perity will not be wanting to that
sorely-tried nation when she returns to
the ways of truth and, acknowledging
the cause of her misfortunes, throws
herself at the feet of that power which
raises conquered nations" The reply of
the Pope expresses the satisfaction of
the Supreme Pontiff at the manifestation
of religious favor which prevails in
France and describes the feeling of ex-
treme joy at seeing "France return te
God, begininning with eclat and begun
too by those who have been deputed to
busy themselves with public affairs, t6
make the laws and govern the people,
