The Mountains of Colorado,

The mountain ranges of Colorado
" al area of 60, 900 to TO- 600 square
miles. This excludes bodily the entire
territory east of this point. All Switzer-
land oyers but 10000 quare miles, or,
to be accurate, Is, 800. The fact is,
Switzerland, compared to Colorado, is
of the little toy COWS to a living buff
falo. You can take up the whole little
State and set it down in either the
North, Middle or South Park without
touching the rim of the mountains which
wall in these singular Enclosures. These
parks are each of them from "a, 900 to
%, 600 square miles in extent, and the
San Luis is nearly as large as all three,
SO far as to magnitude, which is GER
talnly an element of mountain scenery
as to pure scenic beauty-of course the
evidence cannot be reduced to figures.
but it is reasonable to suppose that this
vast expanse of gigantic ranges, endless
canons, bottomless gulches, with its
lake swung $4,000 feet in the air, and
its cascades and icy waterfalls still
higher-with its eternal SHOWS and pre-
Adamite stone forests of tropical effior-
escence-offers all of picturesque and
wild effect that any other land or region
can claim. Call Switzerland the "Minia-
ture Colorado of Europe" if you please,
but let us have done forever with the
other phrase, which has little or no
meaning in itself when the above facts
are considered chronological Journal.

Education of Women.

The New York Independent, remark
ing the fact hat not one woman was
saved on the fated Atlantic, although
many had the same chance of life as the
men, observes
The strength of women at the crisis
Of their life depends on their physical
culture while children. Let parents be
no more ashamed of their girls brown
faces and fists than of their boys. Let
them train and clothe them so that they
can run and climb and care for and pro-
tect themselves. Let them take them
with their brothers into the harvest
field. A boy is not ashamed of work ;
no more should be a girl. The refine
ment that shuts a girl out of Gods sun
shine, and allows her no rougher work
indoors than to embroider worsteds, or
tap ivory keys, or dust a marble mantel,
is refining her off of the face of the
earth to give place to the daughters of
the servants of the kitchen.

A Warming to Chewers and Smokers,

The terrible results of tobacco and
whisky in shortening human life, and in
impairing the mental faculties at an
early age, have been exemplifed in the
case of William Cappago, of st. Joseph,
Mo. The Herald of that city states
that he was 121 years of age at the time
of his death. He protested to have
taken part in the whole of the American
Revolution, and to have been at York
town when CORVALLIS surrendered to
Washington. He came through Ken
lucky when Daniel Boone was the only
white settler in the territory, and spent
some time with him in his cabin. For
the past los years he has been a slave
to the s of tobacco. This filthy habit
led him to the useo of intoxicating LIQUORS.
He erected n of the first distilleries in
Missouri, and as the water in that Sec
ton of the country was bad, and as
there was afpoor market for whisky, the
became his best customer. Although
he was acting Justice of the Peace
during the later years of his life, it was
noticed that his faculties were less acute
than before he became addicted to the
use OF whisky and tobacco. It is to be
hoped that all the youth who read an
account of his early death will take
warning, for few of them have constitu-
tions that will bear up against abuses
as long al this mans did.

Snow a Warm Covering.

Last fall Mr.. Spencer, who has a farm
near Elk Rapids, filed a pit III his field
with potatoes, covering them with boards
and potato tops. During the night tn
snow fell, and he was unable to cover
them with earth, and they remained in
this condition until last week, when the
covering of snow, potato tops and boards
was removed, and the potatoes were
found to be entirely untouched by the
frost. Perhaps the most remarkable
fact connected with this is hat a coffee
pot half full of water was found to be
as free from ice as when placed there
last fall. This fact that snow effectually
prevents the ground from freezing is one
of the principal reasons why the soil is
SO soon ready for planting after the snow
is gone, and also accounts for it's sudden
disappearance when it begins to co.

How to Begin an Article for Pubiica-
ton.

A great many people are apt to hit
upon happy ideas in society, and when
they go home they write them out for
publication, and most of these good
folks know how hard it is to begin an
article satisfactorily. A word to them:
Commence with your very finest writing
and most beautifully rounded sentences.
Introduce your subject in your most
elaborate style, be poetical, rhetorical,
didactic, as your mood may be, and
when you think fit, gradually drop into
the discussion of the subject-matter.
When the article is finished, begin at
the opening sentence, and read it until
you find you have commenced to say
something to the point. Stop at this
place /; strike out everything before it,
and let your article begin just there.
You will then probably find that it opens
well, and that by collecting all your la
bored composition in one place where it
can be readily stricken out, you Will
have saved yourself all the trouble that
would have been necessary had it been
scattered through the article.

Gladstone and Disraeli.

A London correspondent says (: Mr..
Gladstone and Mr.. Disraeli, unlike in SO
many things, are particularly unlike in
their mi of entering the House.
Mr.. Gladstone usually slips in with a
rapid step from behind the Speakers
chair. Looking suddenly at the front
bench yoa see him there. Mr.. Disraeli
takes the opposite course. He enters at
the door which is farthest from his seat.
On a field night he ordinarily stays away
until the chamber is full and curious.
Shortly before 5 o'clock he saunters in,
his coat unbuttoned and thrown back,
one hand holding out his hat a little way,
his step slow, his features wearing a
stolid or Indifferent expression. Stran-
gers whisper, "There's Dizzy!" s'Where?"
Why, just going up the floor to his
seat" "Oh, I see him +; dear me, SO
it is"

The BATTLE OF THE BRDs.-A couple
OF male robins, attended by what appear
to be their female companions, have
made the lawn of a suburban residence
a place of daily resort for a week past,
where the male birds have a regular
daily battle. They fight as fercely as
game-cocks, dropping their wings and
coming together on the grass with a
fury that tears out quantities of feathers.
Meeting in the shock, they rise together
four or five feet from the ground, the
town feathers flying briskly. This bat
tie, daily renewed, has been going on
for a week, and is still undecided.
Whether it arises from jealousy or rival
claims to the earth-wormf in that parti-
cular lawn, cannot be ascertained. The
females look on demurely, and wife as
much seeming Indifference as the old
woman who watched the fight between
her husband and the bear.-Hartford

WHEN you wish to clean a lamp chin
ney, hold a linen cloth against one end
of the chimney and place the other end
in your mouth; breathe in it until it is
covered inside with moisture, push the
cloth into the chimney with a smooth,
slender stick, and rub it around until
the moisture is absorbed; repeat the
process and breathe on the outer sur
face also; rub this with a cloth until
dry, and you have a clean, bright chin
ney. Soft newspaper will take the place
of a linen cloth. Do not use cotton
cloth on glassware.

Prrf. Mason, well known colored

lady love in the vicinity of Flushing.
Rumor said that she was about TO wed
another. So James on wednesday OF
last week hied away to that rural Dor
ough to rescue his sweetness but her
parents objected. The door was bar
red against the said James, whereupon
he, "contrary to the statute in such
cases made and provided" begana vi
client assault and battery" upon the
premises. James bird had flown and
was the wife of another, and he would
not be comfo-ted." Suffice it to say
James was transported to st. Claiis-
Vile on Friday night, free,-was taken
out on writ of habeas corpus on one
charge; and bailed in the sum of fifty
dollars for his appearance at Court to
plead 20 the charge of assault upon the

The following communication wa
handed us by a highly respectable ant
prominent member of the Presbyterian
Church:
Mr.. EDITOR 1T is sad to contem
plate the action of the old Presbyterian
Church of st. Clairsville, against DR.
West, the Mayor. The pastor and ses.
sion of that Church, blasphemously
calling themselves ga Court of Jesus
Christ" have preferred charges against
the Mayor, for improper language and
conduct, when a violent assault and
battery was committed upon him by
other parties while he was discharging
his official duties.
DIR. West, as Mayor, for years has
carried on a brave and noble contest
on the side of temperance and religion,
law and order, against whisky-sellers,
rowdyism and crime. His actions
have made life and property safe, and
the laws are honored and Obeyed. All
of this time he has been abused and
slandered by rival press; but devoted
and faithful, he has discharged all of
his duties fearlessly and impartially.
A most bitter persecution all these
years, instigated by the press, has been
waged against him. At last, the ses-
sion of the Church enpapa in this nerSe-
cution, while every dram-seller, every
rowdy, every saloon-keeper, clamorous
as always against the Mayor, applaud
the acts of this session, direct the perse-
cution, and supply the testimony.
