Origin of Mamma.

Curiosity has been on the alert from
remote historical times to discover
some way by which the Israelities were
so abundantly supplied with nutri-
tious food in the wilderness called man.
na, short of miraculous dispensation.
But no one has yet discovered any
source of supply bearing proportion
to the quantity gathered by the So
journing Hebrews. Several kinds of
shrubs and trees yield something
analogous, but it is glutinous-a sort
of viscid xudation-whereas that
which was found, every morning in the
desert was a clean, well defined, dry
substance like coriander seed, says
the sacred chronicle.
Mr. Turner found a grove of lamar
isk trees near Mount Sinai in the valley
of Farran, which furnishes what the
monks called mama. They were bushy,
about 10 feet high, from which drops
of a sweetish thick fluid ooze. If
taken early in the morning before the
sun is up, it may be kept in earthen
pots considerable time. 1t is used in
lieu of sugar in the convent. There
fore, the disbelieving in the miracle
must extend their researches still fur
ther if any expectation is entertained
of explaining away the positive testi-
mony of the great lawgiver Moses.

A Telegraphic Decision.

A decision of some interest and I'M
portance to business men was delivered
in tie Supreme Court of Illinois, at
Chicago, by Judge Breeze. The case
and decision We're as follows
James E. Tyler telegraphed, October
80, 1872, by the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, to John Wrenh, of
New York, to purchase 100 shares OF
Western Union stock. The message was
transmitted and received ,WO
shares Mr.. Tyler brought suit in
assumpsit for damages, and was award
ed go damages by the jury, being the
cost of the message. A motion tor a
new trial was overruled by an appeal
taken to the Supreme Court.
In reversing the judgment of the Cir
cult Court, and remanding the cause Tor
further proceedings, Judge Breeze held
that "the conditions of the company
have evidently been designed so as to
relieve the company of responsibility.
Content to receive the compensation,
they shrink from fulfilling the obliga-
tions. That the courts should not be
swift to exempt the companies from IL
ability is dictate of public policy. 10
such perfection has the art of telegraphy
been brought that, though many mil
lions of dispatches have been sent, the
English and American court records
only show some fifty cases instituted
against companies for losses occasioned
by their negligence. Under these cir
cnmstances their bold claim to exemp-
ton should meet with no favor from the
courts. The doctrine to benefit the
public must be that which the Court en-
deavors to establish-that mistake IN
transmission is prima facie evidence OF
negligence, and that the burden is on
the company to prove the contrary. II
the company relies upon contracts to
restrict its liability it must show a valid
contract, freely entered into by the SEN
der. and for a valuable consideration
paid by the company or acknowledged
by the sender. But even such a contract
will not relieve the company from gross
negligence"

Singular Murder Case.

One of the most singular murder
trials on record has recently been con-
cluded in Bordeaux. Some months ago
the hous, Of postman named Mano,
situated III the wild flats of the Landes,
vas entered in the night in the absence
Of the postman, and his wife, her father
and mother and two of their children
were brutally murdered in their beds,
the weapon used being pickaxe. The
only person left alive in the house was
Bernard Mano, son of the postman,
eight years of age. There were several
lunatics roaming about the forests OF
the Landes, and at first it was supposed
that one of these had committed the
bloody deed. Some months after the
murder the boy Bernard one day was
sharpening knife, and in answer to an
inquiry said that he intended to kill his
papa with it because the latter had kill
ed the boys brother, sister, mother,
and grandparents. On this evidence
Mano, who was not n man of bad char
acter, was arrested. 1t was proved that
the accused went to bed in the Post
Office, twenty-four miles distant from
his house. on the evening of the murder.
He walked habitually in making his
rounds thirty miles day. and if he was
the guilty person he must have got up
after having done his usual days work
and walked twenty-four miles to murder
his family without any apparent motive,
and twenty -four miles back again after
doing The deed, making seventy-eight
miles of pedestrianism during the twen-
ty-four hours. 1t was shown that the
boy was addicted to lying. and in his
evidence he contradicted himself. lie
said that the man with the pickaxe look
ed like his father, but he could not be
sure that it was he that he heard his
mother crying murder, and hid his face
under the bed clothes. When asked
by the man with a pickaxe whether he
was sleep, he did not answer from
fear. The presiding Judge, according
to the French custom, pressed the ex-
animation of the boy very closely, and
after good deal of coaxing induced him
to repeat several times that the man he
saw was his father, and that he did not
divulge the secret at first for fear OF be-
ing beaten. So,ely on the evidence of
this boy the prisoner was convicted, the
verdict of the jury being Guilty with
extenuating circumstances" Tne ex-
tenuating circumstances undoubtedly
consisted only of the scruples OF the
Jury in regard to condemning man to
death on such testimony, method OF
compromising with the conscience quite
customary with French iuries. The
sentence in this case was imprisonment
with hard labor for life.

A Wonderful Bab0On.

lie Valiant, the African traveller, tells
some wonderful stories about the in
stinct of the baboon. He travelled with
one for long time as guide. Its
name was Snees. He knew the shops
where the best sherbert was to be got.
Being short of butter once, Snees
brought him a number of cocoa-nuts,
which he had thrown about till the milk
inside had become churned. He watch
ed by his masters side every night, kill
ing the mosquitoes and fleas which swarm
about the banks of the Nile. He often
helped lie Valiant in unrolling the
mummies and packing his trunks. lie
valiant brought his baboon to Europe,
and Snees showed his gratitude by saving
his masters life. Thieves were plum
dering the house, when Snees ran to
the alarm-bell, and never ceased pull
ing it till the inmates were alarmed !;
the thieves were apprehended Just in
time, for LIE valiant says when he
awoke there were two gentlemen at his
bedside, one with a pistol, and the
other with a carving knife. The day
lie valiant died. the sagacious baboon
broke a blacking- -bottle-whether acci-
IDENTIFY or not is not proved-whlch
BACKED him from head to foot but
many persons, who knew Snees well,
declare this was done purposely, from a
desire of the faithful animal to show re-
spect to the memory of his kind master
by going into mourning for him.

The Boston Strlk kers.

In the case OF Timothy Hogan, one
of the striking horse-shoers, for threat
ening and assaulting Peter Pilkington
for going to work in the Railroad Com
pany's horseshoe shops, at Boston,
Judge Parmenter decided that the Of
fense came within the statute in rela-
tion to compelling persons to do acts
against their will by threats, the pun
ishment for which is Imprisonment in
the State prison not exceeding ten
years, or by a fine not exceeding 3d.
900, or by both imprisonment and fine.
In reviewing the matter, Judge Par
menter quoted the following from the
records of the Supreme Court in SINH
lar case Freedom is the policy Of
this country, but freedom does not i'm
ply right in one person, either alone
or in combination with others, to dis
turb or annoy another, either directly
or indirectly, in his lawful business or
occupation, or to threaten him with an
noyance or injury, for the sake of com.
pelling him to buy his peace, or, in the
language of the statute, with intent to
extort money or any pecuniary advan-
tage whatever. or to compel him to do
any act against his WILL" and added:
The facts alleged and proved in this case
are peculiarly offensive to the free prin-
ciples which prevail in this country, and
if such practices could enjoy impunity
they would tend to establish tyranny
of irresponsible persons over labor and
mechanical business, which would be
extremely injurious to both.
Judge Parmenter held Hogan in ST.
600 ON both complaints for trial at the
Superior Court.

Wool Growing In California.

The Importance which the wool.grow
ing interest in California has attained
may be in great measure ascribed to
the example afforded in the energy and
pluck of one man, who, in the face of
almost insurmountable difficulties,
practically demonstrated the feasibility
of making the business OF sheep raising
exceedingly remunerative in that State.
This man, Col William W. Hollister,
emigrated from Licking county, Ohio,
some twenty years ago, driving before
him flock of eight hundred sheep. 1t
was an extremely hazardous undertaking
to cross the continent in those days with
such flock, and owing to the difficult
ties and hardships he encountered on
the way, when he arrived at last in
Southern California the number OF his
sheep had been reduced by more than
one-half. Beginning the business of
sheep breeding in debt, he carried it on
so successfully that in time he became
very wealthy, his fortune at present be-
ing estimated at not less than SO, 0O0,-
600. He is the owner of over one hun
dred thousand acres OF soil, with fiocks
in proportion TO his lands. He says
that each one OF the three hundred sheep
he had remaining when he reached Cal
ifornia earned him one thousand dol
lars before it died. Col. Hollister thinks
the different grades OF merino sheep the
best adapted to the business Of sheep
raising on a large scale, because the
merino is more gregarious and herds
better in large bands, while its fleece
furnishes the great staple for the cloth
ing wools. The average annual increase
Of sheep under fair conditions in Cali
fornia Col. Hollister estimates to be,
with merinos, on small scale, one hun
dred per cent. but on a large scale only
eighty per cent. The average annual
Weld of wool in his focks has been
about six pounds for each animal.
Where the business is conducted on an
extensive scale the owner is obliged to
leave its supervision with subordinates
to great extent, which accounts for the
falling off in the increase under such
circumstances. The great enemies OF
California wool-growers are wolves and
the scab.

Adulterating Tea.

The praiseworthy desire of a Cler-
kenwell ENG. grocer to advance with
the times has brought him into serious
trouble. Mr.. George Brown, the enter
prising trader in question, had adver-
tised startlingly cheap tea-a "noted
mixture, in fact-at only eighteenpence
per pound. A customer who had reason
to quarrel with the quality of this re-
markable article, submitted it to analy-
sis. and found that it was very notable
indeed. 1t consisted of "lron filings
and clippings, gritty matter, foreign
stalks, and small fragments of wood. -
A magnet which was thrust into the
mixture brought out of it large num-
ber of iron particles. Mr.. Browns ac-
vocate pleaded cdpeat enptor, OF course,
and asked the people of Clerkenwell
what kind of tea they expected to get
for eighteenpence a pound. The mag,
istrate did not swallow this excuse, and
in consequence sent the defendant to
prison for six months under the new
adulteration act.

A Diving Torpedo.

There is now lying at the Brooklyn
Navy Yard torpedo-boat, invented 6y
Abraham Halstead, of Jersey CITY. IL
is built of iron, about thirty-two feet
long and seven feet wide at the middle.
In shape, it resembles a very fat cigar,
it's rounded back only lying out OF the
water. Its appearance entities it to the
name of Intelligent Whale" bestow-
ed on it bv it's inventor. In principle
it is boat shaped diving bell, the DOT
tom being open, to enable Its occupants
to work upon the bottom or sides OF the
vessel or other object to be destroyed.
In each end is an air-tank. and when IN
use air is allowed to escape till the boat
is entirely under water, when 1t Is pro-
PEELED by an ordinary propeller screw
turned by hand. 1t has two rudders
placed at right angles to each other, and
can be guided up or down as well as 10
either side. The cask containing the
explosive may be taken in tow or carried
in the PROV, ready to be attached to the
enemy's vessel, where it is to be explod-
ed with carefully graduated fuse, with
an arrangement of clockwork, or with
electric wires which are paid out OF the
torpedo boat as it withdraws safe dis
tance.
The boat as thus described does not
greatly differ from other inventions OF
its kind, Its distinguished character
istic is an apparatus by which the car
bonic acid gas exhaled from the lungs
is absorbed and oxygen supplied. Ihls
process is, as yet, secret. A recens
experiment near the dry dock resulted
very satisfactorily to the officers OF the
Navy Yard. Mr.. Halstead and his lam,
" have, on several occasions, remained
in the boat under water for periods OF
three or four hours.

The Advance Of Gold.

The gold furry in Wall street is the
event of the day in commercial and
financial circles. Some light is thrown
by the New York papers upon the cause
of the advance and who are manipula-
ting the movement. From an editorial
in the Herald we quote:
the vast amount of imports during the
past few weeks, and now we learn that
they amounted last week to nearly four
teen millions of dollars, over three and
a half millions being the value OF dry
goods, and little less than ten and
half MILL ms of general merchandise.
The rise of the gold premium
may be accounted for in part from the
unusual amount of the precious metal
r,ur importers have needed to pay du-
ties on these large importations, and
partly also from the recent action of the
Bank of England in raising the rate OF
discount. But there is, evidently, an
other and more general cause operating,
for gold has been rising steadily from
112 toward the close OF last year to llSi,
which it touched yesterday. The ex-
port of gold to greater amount than
the production of our mines lessons, OF
course, the stock in the country. Since
the first of January we have exported
S13,347,318. This is at the rate OF
S53 ,3S9,27 year. We do not know
what the present gold production of the
mines is, but, probably, not over twen-
ty-fve millions year. The product OF
both gold and silver will hardly amount
to fifty millions. Then the stock of
gold in the Treasury is much less than
it was last year, or than it had been
from year to year since shortly after the
close of the war. The demand for gold
to take up the hve-twenties, and 20 fund
the debt, together with the amount re-
auired to pay interest on the debt, will
keep down the surplus, though the ex-
cessive importations of merchandise will
furnish the Secretary with a considera-
BILE sum from duties. Nor do we see
how the export Of specie is to be check
ed, while imports are 80 excessive and
the balance of trade is so largely against
us. Heretofore Government bonds and
other securities have gone abroad to
balance the account, but there is limit
to this resource. We cannot always pay
in bonds. We must either pay in gold
or by the export of produce, unless, in
deed, our foreign creditors choose to
let what we owe them remain on this
side for investment. But drawing from
us gold at the rate of fifty-three mil
lions year looks as if they preferred to
have the hard cash at home. Nor must
we neglect to notice the vast amount of
specie taken or drawn from this eide by
the thousands of Americans crossing to
Europe or living there.

A Benevolent Dog,

The Corr,hiU Magazine has an inter
esting anecdote related of large dog
kept in Algiers by Miss Emily Napier,
daughter of Sir William Napier. The
dog was sent every morning to fetch
bread from the bakers and regularly
brought home twelve rolls in basket.
At last it was observed that for several
mornings there were only eleven rolls
in the basket and, on watching the
dog, he was found to stop on his way
and bestow one roll on poor, sick and
starving lady-dog, hidden, with her
puppies, in a corner, on the road from
the shop. The baker was then instruct
ed to put thirteen rolls in the basket,
after which the dog delivered the twelve
faithfully for a few days, and then left
all the thirteen in the basket-the token,
as it proved, that his sick friend was
convalescent, and able to dispense with
his charity.

KILLED BY INDIANs.-The Leaven-
worth Commercial has intelligence
from private sources of the murder in
cold blood, by Cherokee Indians. Of
Mr.. Deming and three other Govern.
ment surveyors, 100 miles southwest OF
Arkansas City. The men had gone a
mile and a half from the camp, and
their bodies were found by their COM
rades buried in the sand. Two others
of the same party, with a provision
train, have not been heard from for
some time, and fears are entertained for
their safety.
