OUR NATIONAL DEBT. -"Why the ma
tional public debt has increased" is q
question that is exercising the gentlemen
at Washington who are always account
ing for things" When the December
statement was published, the reason
given was. that the Treasury had not re-.
ceived as much money as it had paid
out. This .is plain enough for one to
understand, for it refers to point in
the economy of finance very often expe-
rienced by privpte persons. as well as by
cities, States and nations. Since the
January statement was published, there
is another explanation for that month,
and this one is not so agreeable. We
are told that the January statement
would have shown decrease of the
debt, If the Treasury hnd not paid out
about 81 800, 600 as interest on the bonds
loaned to the Pacific Railway Compa-
nies. To this it may be added. that the
Pacific Companies oannot pay this inte-
rest but compel the Government to pay
it, because muniiceut "subsidies" voted
by Congress to the companies were
squandered upon tho "Credit Mobilier''
and other railway rings in profiigate
contracts. barefaccd plundcr especial
expenses and "diyidends," to procure
"more friends in Congress-"

OF all IN the strange. eventful drama of
which Louis Napoleon WAS the central
figure, is described nt so much length
and with such frmness of diction bv

so imposing and grand, that one would
hardly think from it's reading that the
obseqnies were those of an uucrowned
and exiled monarch. surrounded by bnt
the shadow of his former splendor, and
with barely remnant Of the power he
once exercised. It is, perhaps, O strong
proof of the mans greatness in life.
that bis death should summon such a
host; but it Is also true. that with him
was inferred his dynasty. The CORES.

The RECORD OF THE BoNAPARTE FAAI-
IY.-A correspondent sends to the Lon
don Times the following cutting from
French newspaper, dated July 2a, 1882:
"The register of the Imperial family,
on which has been inscribed the process
perbo' of the birth of Prince Napoleon's
son, is q large folio volume, bound sin
red velvet, and having at tho coruers
ornaments OF silver gilt, with the family
Cipher. N, in the centre. It was begun
in 1906, and the first entry made was the
adoption OF Prince Eugene by the EN-
peror. The second, made tho same
year, relates TO, .the adoption of the
Princess Stephauie Beauharnais, who re-
Gently died Grand Duchess of Baden,
and who was cousin to the Empress Jo-
sephine. Next comes the marriage Of
the Emperor Napoleon I, then several
certificates of the birth of princes OF tho
family. and, lastly. of the King of Rome,
which closes tho series Of she certi ficates
inscribed under the reign of the first
Emperor.
k This register was oon6ded to the care
of Count Regnault de St. joan d'Augeiy,
Minister and Councillor of State and
Secretary of the imperial family. It

is now to the Minister Of State under
the Second, that was reserved tho duty
of drawing up the proces- -uertauc of the
great acts relative to Napoleon. At the
fali of the First Empire Count Regnauit
de st. Jean d'Angely carefully preserved
the book, which, at his death, passed
into the hands OF the Countess. his
widow. That lady handed it over to the
President of the Republic, when Louis
Napoleon was called, by universal snf-
frage, to the imperial throne.
I'm this same register, continued by
the Second Empire, may be seen the
certificates OF the marriage of tho EN-
peror Napoleon III, and Of that of the
Princess Clotilde; OF the birth of the
Prince Imperial; OF tho death of the
Prince jerome; and, lastly, of the birth
OF Prince Napoleon Victor Jerome

of the dynasty; that of Victor is in the
remembrance of the House of Savoy;
Jerome is that OF his paternal grand
father; and Frederic was given in COM
plimept to the family of Wurtemberg."

HUNTERS SCHEME. have alrea-

slave States $400, 100000 without in
terest, the principal never to be de-
manded, IN consideration of The loss Of
property" occasioned by emancipa-
tion. The scheme contemplates the
further loan Of this sum by the States

terms, to the individuals whose slaves
were set free. 1t Is now mentioned as
one of the probable outcomes of the

he may have an opportunity Of pre-

TIE EXPERIENCES OF A RANCHERO.

TIE EXPERIENCES OF A RANCHERO.
$50 West, young man go West"
was piece of advice with which the late
Horace Greeley was credited with offer
ing to every young man who applied to
the great journalist and philosopher for
counsel. Whether or not he really
urged such a universal emigration tow
ard the setting sun as has been alleged,
we are not prepared to say with positive
ness. but the natural inference is that
the real extent of his counsel in this
respect has been greatly exaggerated.
1t is certain, however, that thousands
of young men have directed their foot
steps thitherward with golden dreams of
future wealth that have never been real
lied. One of them reveals some of his
unsatisfactory experiences in note to
the editor of the Denver Ne,cs. His
case is certainly hard one, and those
who contemplate following his footsteps
ing their traps and starting out on a
| wild goose chase in search of fortune
in the far West. Says this disconsolate
victim of the Western fever Being
out of workout not loafing-I thought
l would try the rancho business, so 1
walked four or five miles out on the
Platte, and found a rancho where there
are employed from twenty to twenty five
hands at 81 per day. Now, Mr.. Editor,
shall tell you facts-nothing more-so
here goes. You are obliged to get up
mt o'clock get breakfast. However,
during bug time-potato bugs-you get
up at B o'clock and shake Paris green
until breakfasts o'clock. You work
until II o'clock and get dinner-half
hour incoming. Then work until 6
o'clock-supper-and, as soon as you
swallow your supper, work until 8 or 10
o'clock tieins up vegetables for market.
All this for 81 day. Sundays one
fourth of a day is allowed you-25 cents
to work from 3 o'clock in the after
noon to 8 o'clock at night. Now is this
not enough to sicken a poor mans heart?
The food is enough, but poor-no milk
or butter allowed on the table, and you
sleep like hogs, in an old barn and
stable, full of greybacks and bedbugs.
[ like to work, but was obliged to give
it up. l hope some good and kind
hearted ranchman will give me work and
a home where I will not have to work
sixteen out of the twenty-four hours for
81 per day"

the effects of the diet. The first man

CURIOUS STA TEMENTS.

In a recent lecture on the polarity of
the earth," Prof. Vandermeyde, among
other curious statements, made these
that follow here If there was two feet
more water in the ocean the hydrogen
of the water would so combine with the
oxygen of the air as to speedily destroy
the atmosphere and render the earth
uninhabitable. He thought the limita
ton of the water to exactly the right
quantity looked almost providential.
The moon once had an atmosphere and
was habitable; but it grew dlssipated,
got to using water too freely, and lost
its atmosphere. This earth will lose its
atmosphere i'll the same way. An i'm
mense increase in volcanic action would
soon destroy the equilibrium for lava
takes up water in great quantities. A
large proportion of the rocks are hydra
ted that is, formed by the combination
of water with the molten substances
thrown out by volcanoes. Jupiter is not
habitable, not being cool yet, as it evil
IDENTIFY evolves some light. It's moons
are probably cool and habitable as ours
was once. They appear dark when
passing over the luminous surface of
that planet. All the planets are formed
of small masses aggregated. The one
hundred and twenty-five asteroids cir
cling near Mars will yet form one planet.
The earth probably had several moons
once, which severally dropped upon it,
causing at each collision quite new de-
parture, as heat enough was evolved to
melt the colliding bodies. Whereupon
a recess of few hundred million years
had to be allowed before the NAL
thusians of those times could find occa-
sion for alarm concerning surplus popu-
lation. There will be another house
warming when our too-loving moon
rushes headlong to our embrace.
