A SMALL MUNICIPAL BALANCE.

THE CONTROILER THINKS HE Will NOI
LY INCONVENIENCE.
The fact that the balances in the City
Treasury have been reduced to very low figure has
led many persons to believe that the Controller might
be seriously Inconvenience for want Of funds to pay
the numerous demands made upon him. 1t was even
questioned whether not the Controller would not be
compelled to submit a considerable shave, in conse-
quence Of the high asked for money The follow
lug are the statements Of the City Chamberlain for the
past two weeks from which 1t will be seen that the
amount in the City Treasury has been largely reduced;

The MOdOc Lava Bed.

these mines are exploded simulta-

rectangular masses, from the size of a
matchbox to that church,
heaping these masses very high

Improvement in Gas Manufacture.

A Spanish chemist has invente7
method OF producing gas for lighting
and heating, by a simple and easiS
managed apparatus, and which enables
the gas to be manufactured wherever
it is desired to use it, without any liza
bility of danger in the process; and it
may thus be made from any solid or
liquid combustible matters, such gas
being, it is claimed, pure, economical,
and deprived of its carbonic acid. The
apparatus employed for effecting the
lighting and heating is also so con-
trived that the consumption of vegeta-
bic and mineral oils, petroleum, shale,
and other matters of a similar nature
in a state OF gas, involves
no necessity for chimney or
other ventilating mechanism. The
combustible matters employed in this
process are peat, animal substances.
black and brown coal, ligneous and
vegetable matters, small wood, saw
dust, spent tan, resins, the refuse of
tallow, petroleum and shale oil-these
minerals being placed in the still, with
about thirty per cent. of vegetable
eharcoal-as may appear to be desir-
able, according to circumstances-ob-
tanned from the distillation of the oil.
This improved system also provides for
the publication ofgas by means of GER
tain mineral and vegetable matters.
which separate the empyreumatical oil.
sulphurets, oxide of carbon, and
ammonia-thus preventing noxious
effluvia escaping from the burners. To
consume oils and hydrocarbons of diff
ferent denslties and impurities, with.
out submitting them to operations
which increase the cost, they are con-
sumed in state of gas combined with
super-oxygenated air, and no chimney
is required The value of gas thus
purified, in preserving paintings, gid
ings, etc, from the deterioration they
now suffer from ordinary gas, is a point
easily understood.

| would have written. if 1 might,
poem like the summer day:
] would have mated sound and sight
With words as fair as they;
But when the day was past its prime,
Wncn shadows grew and sunshine paled,
| tried to find, within my rhyme,
The mornings charms, and failed
Then counted mine as Ruthless care,
And straying forth, where chance might lead
Saw poems written everywhere
In signs ! could not read.
All, Mother Nature (said my sigh,
There is a key to sky and flower

Aud poor IN fancy as IN purse; 4.
Teach me 70 Gull single truth
From cut the universe.
Tel me a secret, Of your own,
That men have sought IN vain 10 learn,
That neither thought nor dream have known
And let me tell, in turn.
Translate the speech those robins use
The separate voice of wind and tree
Bid me interpret, IT you choose,
fon brooks garrulity.
Oh, tell me what the distant seas
Have murmured since the world begun,
Show me the grand benignities
or kindly breeze and son.
Hint what il js, this sky and earth =
This outer. sensuous beauty screens:
What ma6es this tiny floWeret's worth
And what thai sunset means.
5 lCak with my lips who would not hear?
What wealth, What honor should lack p
Then Nature smiling far and near,
Gave me no answer back.
! only saw the fair repose.
The mute perfection Of her face.
She was as one who feels and knows.
bur cannot speak, some grace.
There came a swift, uubiddeu Thought:
search thou and ind like content
This Nature, IN herself, Is uaught;
she il Gods instrument.
He speaks IN her, and speaks ir YOU.
Gather those fanaies, east away
Az hour ago, and write anew
The poem like the day.
Go, ponder well ard patiently.
Nor knoalng what your thought may yi1ld,
But waiting for the mystery

Rock-strewn. and SCARED by fire, and rough

And here and there bold, bright touch of

A MOST melancholy thing recently
happened to young gentleman in
Paris. He had been dining out and
wining pretty freely, and, as he was
going to the bal d'0perd, he submitted
himself to the operations of a street
shoe-black. Leaning back into his
chair, he was asleep before the polish
ing was concluded; but when the iuve-
nile artist found ont the condition of his
customer he fastened TO improve it.
He gently drew off the boots, added
his victims purse and watch to the
booty, gathered up his brushes, and
departed. The gentleman was at last
aroused by his cold feet, and ignomini
ously made best of his way home.
There was no dancing for him that
night.

In appears that the census returns
for Great Britain and Ireland as hereto
fore published are not quite accurate.
The enumeration of the people was
made all over the United Kingdom on
one and the same day, namely: April
81, 1871. The revised returns show
some errors. Thus, it has hitherto
been set down that the entire popula.
tion Of the British Isles in 1871 was
3l,SlI los, against 29,070, 932 III 1861 ;
whereas it was triile less, namely
3l,62S,3SS. These returns show that
Ireland has decreased 81 per cent. in
the last ten years.

Don Baldomero Espartero.

Don Baldomero Espartero, Duke of Victory,
the choice of the Republican party in Spain
has not appeared in the political horizon Of
that country since 1857. BE was born in 1872
at drantuala, in Mancha. He was the son of
q cartwright, and the youngest of nine chill
dren. Owing to his feeble constitution bis
father intended him for the priesthood, but in
1903, when the French invaded Spain, he en-
rolled as D volunteer in the body of students
called the Sacred Battalion, and was after
wards placed at q military school until his 23d
year. Upon the expulsion Of Napoleon from
Spain, he Ioined General Morilo in the South
American colonies. He returned to Spain,
and in 1888, at the death of Ferdinand VII,
took decided part in favor OF his daughter
Isabella In l84l Espartere became regent of
Spain, and in the face of intrigue, governed
the country with fair show of success When
General Naravez entered Madrid In lS43, Gen.
eral Espartero sought the protection of an
English man-of-war, and sailed for England.
After residence in London he was invited to
return to Spain, where he resided in private
until 1854. In July of that year Queen Isa-
bella, much against her inclination, sent for
him, and at her aequest, IN conjunction with
General O'Donnell, his former rival, formed a
Ministry. Owing to great difficulties, in the
corruption Of the court, the hostility of the
clergy, the restlessness of the Carlists, and the
fickleness of his own supporters, ODonnell
and he parted He was dismissed, and insur-
rections broke out in Madrid, Barcelona, and
Sarogassa, but he took no part in these quar-
reis, and lost ono Of the most brilliant posi-
tons which fortune or military prestige could
Offer He has now an opportunity of redeem
ing all his former greatness, if he can succeed
in harmonizing the various factions Of ancient
nobleness, modern Toyalists, and growing re-
pubhcans.

Great Fire in Toledo.-The great fire
of Friday night last, in Toledo, among other
buildings destroyed the one occupied as a re-

Summit Street, but they still have one store
left filed with first class goods Of every de-
scription, where the7 continue their large bus
mess. The goods in the burned building were
mainly removed, but in somewhat damaged
condition. These latter, which amount to
about $4,000 worth, are now bong sold at
whatever prices they will bring, and conse-
quently the public are getting unprecedented
bargains, and the rush for goods is daily in
creasing. Fred Eaton & Co., have always
had the reputation of selling goods at remark
ably close figures, and of successfully compet-
ing with the largest houses in the United
States; and now that they have an immense
stock of partially damaged goods on hand,
they invite all people to come and secure the
greatest bargains ever offered under any cir
eumstances. Lose no time in coming to make
your purchases, and remember that the "Old
