A RECENT correspondent estimates the
total population of Colorado, south of
the Arkansas river, at 10000, OF which
$500, is in the city Of Pueblo, an old
Spanish town that has sprung up into
Importance, and is now the second city
in the Territory, its trade being valued
at 1000, 900 year, as it is the center
of a woo-growing district that contains
5000 head Of sheep, and produces an
annual wool clip of 1885, 200 pounds.
1t is the present terminus of the Denver
and Rio Grande Nauow-guage Railway,
is at the crossing of the old trade routes
from the Missouri to the mountains, and
from Santa le to the Black Hills and the
Oregon trail, and is the Quitting point
for the new San Juan gold and silver
mining region.
.AGEIcULruRE is taking the place of
stock raising in Texas, and it is the opin-
ion OF well-informed settlers of that State
that in few years cattle will be raised
on more limited scale. Thousands Of
cattle persisted the past winter in Arkansas
San Patricio, Refugio and Nueces coun
ties for want sustenance, and only those
which have been pastured in Enclosures
are in fit condition for a journey North
The soil of Texas presents as many adj
vantages for cultivation as for stock-rais
ing, and if the vast tracts now tenanted
only by cattle were divided into quarter
sections for settlement, population ant
wealth would increase much more rapidly

made the proposition when ne drew
up his horse, which was at a ravine,
and said: d" Well, here is an old elk
track. Let Us get off our horses and
follow it." We followed it but few
rods, when he said it was exactly a
month old, and made at two o'clock
in the afternoon. This he knew, as
then we had our last rain, and at the
hour named the ground was softer
than at any other time. The track
before us was then made. He broke
up here and there clusters Of grapes
that lay in the path Of the track, and
showed me the dry ends Of some, the
stumps of others, and by numerous
other similar items accounted for cir
cumstanees that astonished me. 'r e
We followed the trail over mile.-
Now and then we saw that wolf, a
fox, and other animals had praetieed
their trailing instincts on the elkls
| tracks. Here and there he would
show me where a snake, rat, and a
prairie dog had crossed the track
Nothing had followed or crossed the
track that the quick eye OF DalOria did
not detect. He gave an account OF
the habits of all the animals that had
left their footprints on the track, also
of the state Of the weather since the
elk passed, and the effects of sunshine,
wind, aridity, sandstorms and other
influences that had q bearing on these
tracks. The old man, like all trailers,
was retieent; but on this occasion,
seeing that was interested, he be-
came specially communicative.

A DOMESTIC SCENE.

It is very rarely indeed q man
leaves his wife in ped asleep and slips
softly into the kitchen to surprise her
bv putting a polish on thecook stove.
When he does it, it is an event OF
some importance in the family his
tory. and the way he does affords ma
terisl for edifying reflections for days
at a time. He first moistens the black
ing by filling the saucer to the orlm
with water. Some Of this ne spills
on his pants but generally manages
to get the greater part OF 1t on the car
pet. Then he grasps the brush firm
ty in his right hand, and setting the
SANGER on the floor where it is handy
to step in, he goes to work, and for
the next fifteen minutes q most as
touding complication Of noises pro-
ceeds from the kitchen. There is
the Whisk Of the brush as it glides
over the smooth places, and then q
sharp rap as 1t comes in contact with
an unexpected angle.
There is q sort of kissing noise
made by himself, and which indl'

RApin aROMTH OF CLRYELAND.

The report Of the city emigrant
agent gives a suggestive hint concern
inc the way that Cleveland gains so
raDidly in population. During the
month of May, 763 emigrants from
the various countries of Europe set
lied permanently in Cleveland. The
agent here says that the number who
come to make this city their future
home average more than six thousand
a wear. This number includes only
the emigrants who come direct from
Europe, but does not take into account
the large number of those who come
from England and Ireland to Canada,
and after a few mcnths in that sleepy
country swarm across the border to
the real new world that they left their
homes to seek. Cleveland being on
the frontier, and being well known
throughout Canada as hourishlng,
beautiful and bealthful city, catches s
0reat many of these European Cana
diaus, and they are in most cases a
very valuable class Of recruits. The
foreign born citizens added to the
census of this city cannot be less than
eight thousand per annum. This,
with the influx Of native Americans,
and the legitimate increase through
the preponderance of births over the
deaths, explains without difficulty
the yearly growth of from ten to
twelve thousand people which Gleye-
| land has shown siuee 1865. 1t shows
also why 1t is that from two thousand
five hundred to three thousand new
dwelling houses are built every year,
and yet rents remain high and houses

FLORAL DECORATIONS FOR PAR.
vsig 80 TIES.


The use of flowers and plants for the
decoration Of parlOrs and tables, at
fashionable parties and weddings, has
increased wonderfully within few
years. 1t Is not unusual for eight
hundred or q thousand dollars to be
expended for flowers and plants for a
single occasion. The sale Of cut flOw-
ers in the cityof New York is, esti-
mated at over q millien dollars annu-
ally. About one-fourth Of this sum
is expended in one month-at the sea-
son Of Christmas and New Years fes-
tivities, at which time the florists are
all taxed to their utmost abilities, and
extravagant prices are often obtained
Tor choice flowers. a-si- 3ii Oh r-Tig
= At a recent supper given by a very
wealthy German importer, at Del
moDico's great establishment, with
out regard to expense, the floral deco
rations alone cost about two thousand
dollars. A fountain was erected in
the center Of the dining hall. with
pond at its base so large that q pair of
live swans were swimming therein;
around this were groups and beds Of
finest dollhouse plants and roses II
bloom. Baskets and vases of flowers
decorated every table. and bouquets
each plate; with wreaths and festOons
of evergreens and flowers suspended
above and all around. 3l on
The HorticuItUrist says the whole
sale or trade price the present winter
is, for rosebuds, IS to IS per hundred /;
camellias, $50 tuberoses, $40; but the
consumers pay double these rates. AS
spring approaches the prices decline
The little vine called SHlilGr is very
much used, and sells for fifty cents 70
one dollar per yard. Mr., Henderson,
the great florist, says that there are
about twenty greenhouses, having an
area Of 10000 feet, IN New York and
Boston, devoted tc growing smilax
alone; and whole acres Of glass struet-
ures devoted to rosebuds, violets, tube
roses, etc. ..sf .-.r ...
A Philadelphia paper says flowers
are quite the rage there. 1t is the
fashion row to send boxes Of nice cut
flowers as presents, instead Of stifily
tied bouquets, and ladies greatly pre-
fer this method, as the flowers keep
fresh much longer, and can be used
for a variety Of purposes Flowers
purchased for funerals and weddings
are of the most expensive kind and
yield large revenue to the growers.

The stove appears in half-dressed
uniform of blacking and ashes, and
seem to be taking lively interest in
the whole affair, while the man of
the house, apparently riveted to the
spot stands there in his shirt sleeves,
staring with all his might at a hole
in the carpet, and vainly endeavor-
ing to comprehend how il all hap

lustre illuminate his face and shirt
front, and stove blacking and raw
spots equally divide possession Of his
hands. He has skinned every knuek-
lie on both hands, and broken the
saucer by stepping into it, and got
the ashes into the carpet and snapped
the handle from the brush. She
takes it all in at a glance and with
true womanly sympathy says, well
I hope you are satisfied now" And
the expression Of his face attests more
eloquently than words that he is.-

had from SIS to S25. Single rosebuds
cost 25 cents, and -eaFnatiens 20 cents.
Smilax is sold for 81 a. yard, and one
spray Of lily of the valley costs 25
cents. Wealthy people inv est largely
in flowers on all occasions of festivity.
Large floral bells, which cost from
500 to 500, are ordered for weddings;
then the brackets and vases must be
trimmed and filed, and trailing bas-
kets of rare flowers must ornament
every table and tripod.
In London the demand for flowers
for indoor decoration is said to be
astonishing, and the prices paid for
them on some occasions are quite
amazing. The dinner tables at fash
ionable parties are often perfectly en-
powered with vines and bowers. At
q recent dinner the flowers cost one
thousand dollars. Much taste and
skill is displayed in the decoration of
dinner or supper tables; and to assist

THE MAN SKELETON OF MEXICO.

A fearful story is told Of the Indian
chief and robber of Topic, Lozada,
which has but recently been brought
before the public, and which for cru
elty cannot find 3 parallel.
2 In the small village of San Luis,
near Topic, there has been discovered
q subterranean apartment, construct
ed expressly for the prosecution OF
horrible crimes, and in this was found
not long since a man who for fourteen
wears had not seen the light Of day
Unshaven and unwashed, and doubled
by feebleness, and withal bereft of
sense when discovered, he Is said to
have had more the appearance OF a
wild animal than Of humanity.
From motives Of revenge Lozsda
had him incarcerated in the sepulchre,
and formerly would seem to have TAX
en- especial pleasure in witnessing the
tortures OF this unhappy man, visit
ing him daily for that purpose, and
taunting and mocking him in his
helpless misery. " &
The Eretched man was placed on
his release in charge OF q physician
who Is obliged to use the utmost pru'
dence In bringing him forth from bis
living tomb to enjoy once more th'
liberty Of life; and, even with tht
greatest care, it is thought his enfee
bled system will not sustain the shOcl
such change may bring to it.
