One of the inquiries of the day
is, "What can we do for the wei
fare of our boys and girls?" What
kind of agencies can be brought to
bear upon them which are adapted
best to their intelligent and useful
development? Among other things,
the head of the family should not
fail to supply them with good read
ing. This cannot fail to work a
wonderful transformation among
them. The reading matter should
be selected with judicious care from
every department Of literature.
Nothing Of doubtful veracity, phil
osophy or morals, should be per-
mitted to enter the sacred precincts
Of the home circle. There should
be history and biography; philo-
sophical, scientific and polite litera-
ture and poetry, and a good supply
OF magazine and newspaper reading.
The perusal of these will gradually
but surely awaken spirit of intel
ligent inquiry, SO necessary to strong
and Instrumental expansion. Ashley
read Of men and places; ofthoughts
and events; OF deeds and plans Of
the past and the present, an expand
ing ambition, a new life Of knowl-
edge, love and obligation will open
out before them and SO the change
will be wrought. They will ex-
pand in an atmosphere of increas-
ing usefulness and pleasure. The
boys will become selt-reliant, strong
thinking, useful men. The girls
will become gifted, graceful, virtu,
ous women. Is this estimating the
general influence Of good reading
too highly? We opine not. 1t is
an enlightener which will enlighten
every mans household. 1t is a
torch of intelligence which will
burn with brilliancy wherever set
up. Try it, reader, if you have
hitherto failed 10 do so.

The Kansas City Times gives
the following complimentary notice
of the successor Of Pomeroy, John
James Ingalls,:
This gentleman, who was yester.
day unanimously elected United
States Senator from Kansas, to sue
ceed the disgraced Pomeroy, is a
practising attorney of Atchison.
He is about 40 years of age, and
is q man Of great individuality and
originality. lie is one of the early
settlers OF Kansas, having taken a
prominent part in the border troub-
les Of 1858. He is a Radical Of
the strictest scot, but is withal o
polished man of the world and an
agreeable gentleman, though slight
ly given to cynicism. He has been
in politics but little, and has moth
ing more than local reputation as
a politician, having only represented
bis county in the Legislature. His
chief reputation is of literary
character, and this he has mostly
acquired within the past year by
his contributions to the Kansas
Magasine. He is really a brilliant
magazinist, and his productions
have been largely copied. To this
principally he owes his election, and
it was generally understood last
week that his claims were being
secretly but earnestly pushed by
syndicate of newspaper men con-
gregated at the Capital.
Mr.. Ingalls, will make a brilliant
Senator, and in intellect will be the
peer of any in the Senate Chamber.

The First Case.

Robert NJ. Lee, an attorney Of
San Francisco, was recently indict-
ed by the Grand Jury Of that city
for attempting to bribe ajuryman a
in the Brothertons' forgery case, he
being one of their attorneys. lie
was tried twice. At the first the
jury failed to agree, and were dis
charged. The second trial was had
week before last, resulting IN the
conviction Of the accused. A mo-
tion for a new trial was made by
Lees counsel, but the Judge over
ruled it, and sentenced the prisoner
to a fine Of 81 900, or, in default Of
payment, to imprisonment for a
term of one year, This is pronounc-
Ell the first case of the kind on this
coast, and i is to Be hoped il may
be the last Not thar lawyers, who
commit the crime Of embracery
should not be indicted and punish
ed, but that they may never de-
grade themselves and their profes-
sion SO low sto commit the offense.

killing and making Alive.

The following incident Of killing
and making alive again, was print
ed in the London Globe, purporting
to have come from France. A Ger
man Professor is represented as hav-
ing gained the consent Of NJ. Tbiers
to take possession OF two condemned
Communists, Dodu and Brun by
name, that he might experiment
with them by first killing, and then
in three months after restoring
them to life. His plan was to inject
solution of calx into the system, by
which decomposition was to be pre-
vented and according to his theory
the patient might be revived, not
only at the end of three months, but
of three hundred years, according to
desire. In the presence Of medical
men and public fnnctionaries, the
Professor, having administered chic
rotorm to each of the men, injected
the solution and then
BLED THEM TILL THEY DIED.
The corpses were then dessicated by
the heat of furnaces till they sllriy-
eled and the skin became yellow like
leather. In this state they remain
ed in moderate temperature for
the prescribed three months, and
then the process of revivifcation be-
gan by injecting the blood Of two
healthy laborers and applying the
galvanic battery. The process COM
pletely tailed IN the case Of Dodu.
But III that Of Brun, the result was,
to say the least, surprising. First,
THE OPAQUE EYEBALLs
Rolled in their yellow sockets, the
muscles began to twitch, the heart
to beat; and after fourteen hours Of
treatment, Brun spoke, rose from
the table, swallowed a bowl Of beef
tea and several ounces of brandy,
and audibly grumbled of soreness in
his limbs ard Of pain in the regions
that had rested on the table. He is
said to be now alive and we'll in
Switzerland under the assumed
name Of Forbes, while post mortem
examination showed that fatty de-
generation of the heart had pre-
vented the revival of Dodu. The
attention of persons wishing to be
revivifed is called to this circum-
stance, as showing them that heart
disease is especially to be avoided
by them.

A queer way to determine the
height Ofa tree is practiced among
our Canada neighbors. The meas
urer walks from the tree, looking
at it occasionally from between bis
knees Whenhe can zee the top
in this way, the distance from there
to the foot Of the tree equals its
height. We think we know Of
some fas men who would never see
the top.

Here is what an Ohio journal
,ays about the Modoc war:

Here is what an Ohio journal
says about the Modoc war:
About the most ludicrous Indian
complication that the Government
ever become involved in, is that
with the Modocs Of Oregon. The
United States Of America are con-
tronted by something less than forty
Of the mighty Modocs, who have
betaken themselves to some mac
cessible hole or other, where the
Federal forces are moving upon
them. The hole is so "close" that
Sherman will be unable to march
an army corps into it. II is in con-
temptation therefore to make regu-
lar siege approaches to the exca-
vation Ii that fails, and the Mo-
docs show q design Of pulling the
hole in after them, efforts will leither
be made to drown them out by
water from thirteen squirt guns, Or
to dig them out with ours trained
to hunt wood-chncks. The Gov.
ernment may have to call for vol
unteers for three years or the war,
before we can have peace with the
MOdocs.
