One of the best points made by James Parton
In his lecture on Our Scandalous Politics " in
New York the other evening was he following
portrait of Tweed, painted by himself durin &
an interview with reporter: "Poiutsf am
on the make. You put that down, sure. /
keep my eyes wide open for whatever comes
along; stick my arm down as far as it will go,
and pull it out as full as it will hold. stick
to my friends. That's me-" All politicians of
the Tweed stamp are not as frank as this.

A WORD ABOUT MARRIAGE

A WORD ABOUT MARRIAGE.-A
physician writes the following sensi-
BILE advice: "My profession has
thrown me among women of all
classes, and my experience teaches
me that God never gave man a
greater proof of his love than to
place woman here with him. MY
advice is: Go, propose to the most
sensible girl you know. If she says
yes, tell her how much your income
is-frem what source derived-and
tell her you will divide the last dol
lar with her, and love her with all
your heart in the bargain; and then
keep your promise. My word tor
it, she Will live within your income
and to your last hour you will regret
that you did not marry sooner.
Gentlemen, don't worry about femi-
nine extravaganza and feminine un-
truth. Just you be true to her, love
her sincerely, and throw it up to her
frequently. and more fond, faith
full, foolish slave you will never
meet anywhere. You won't deserve
her, know, but she will never see
it. Now, throw aside pride and
selfishness, and see what will come
of it,"

THE PATTERN OF A BEAT.-"I
knew a fellow once, old Bill Smith
he was the worst old beat you ever
saw. HID chase mosquito eight
miles with pair of lemon squeezers
If he thought he could get one cent
for the oil. He got married on tick,
and has slept on tick ever since. He
was so mean that once when he had
cent in his pocket, to keep his wife
from getting it, he made his oldesi
swallow it, and that boy was a cop.
perhead all through the war. Bill
was going down the Mississippi on 8
steamboat. When the collection
was being taken up, he got out or
guard to hide and fell overheard
The water was hundred feet deer
and two miles wide, and the best
water to drown man l ever saw
Bill couldn't swim stroke, but
stranger, he got OUT
"How?"
ale just took and walked straight
ashore
"How could he walk ashore in wa.
ter one hundred feet deep?"
"Stranger, do you want to know
very bad?"
"Yes, do, real bad"
"Well. stranger, that Bill Smith
was such big sponge he just soaked
all the water. up, and then walked
right ashore"

FAIR IN INDIA.-An annual fair,
at which some 10000 people assem-
BILE, in honor of the Hindu GODDESS
Elamma, is now held at her temple
near the town of lat, in India. Fif-
teen years ago gardener got up the
idol and claimed that it appeared
there OF its own accord. But wo-
men and men visit the temple and
worship the idol. The very strange
fact about this worship is that the
worshippers, before commencing the
worship, strip naked, apply powd-
cred sandal-wood to their whole
bodies, put ON the oraments they
may. have, hold small branch OF
the nimb tree in their folded hands,
and leave their places of residence
to visit the idol. After visiting the
idol they go around the temple q
certain number of times. They ther
leave the temple to bathe i'm neigh
boring tank. After bathing they re-
turn TO the temple, worship the idol
and return home.

CARSON LETTER.

| CARSON, July 8, 1874.
EDITOR TTMEs:-Business brought
me to the Capitol of the State for
few days, and while here, l have
gathered few items, which may
appear to you worthy of publication.
Carson is prospering, particularly
in the recent erection of comfortable
dwellings, the planting of trees, en-
closing lots with substantial fences,
repairs of streets, etc., etc.
The finishing of the machine shop
of the Virginia and Truckee Rail-
road Company has given employ
ment, it is said, to about sixty
mechanics and various important
operations are going on within its
walls.
1 am informed that the population
of the town has increased over one
hundred within the year; whether
owing to the political struggle soon
to be commenced, or otherwise, I
leave to political experts to say.
By the way, politics seem to be
much missed here - Republicans,
| Southern Democrats, or War Demo-
Gratis, Independents and Grangers,
| have their talk right out, and no one
can tell how the cat Will jump.
Mighels, of the Appeal, thinks it
is all right for King William; but as
he (M.) always despises the strength
of his enemies, and has been so
often beaten in political contests bv
so doing, one would think that ex-
perience was no teacher for him, as
he is as likely to put his foot again
into it. King William should know
better than to trust his fight to the
editor of paper, particularly as the
said editor Is candidate himself for
a prominent office.
Judging from present appearances,
l am of the opinion all the present
State incumbents are willing to suck
pap for an additional four years. In
some respects advantageous changes
might be made; attendance upon
duty, courtesy and competency in
public officials is commendable-a
|
ton two years since, were very luke
! warm in their efforts to elect the
Republican ticket, particularly the
Legislative; and such indifference
} has not been forgotten by some OBJ
serving old citizens of the town.
, l do not think it has come under
my view in other places, the great
: willingness of almost every one in
this town to serve the people in
some official capacity. States are
made up every three days, and as
often smashed. The fight seems to
be-Railroad candidates as. present
incumbents; the Railroad wants
Sheriff, Judge of District Court,
Supreme Court Judge, Assessor and
, Treasurer.
No doubt, the coming campaign
will be the most exciting ever
known west of the Rocky Noun
tains, and which will be opened
here, so l hear, in about four weeks.

A JOKE ON BUTLER.--The pro-
vision i'll the tariff bill to remove
extract OF hemlock bark from the
free list is the means of a good deal
of ridicule at the expense of General
Butler. This gentleman is averse to
the provision on the ground that the
hemlock forests would be DESTROYED
by the search for the extract. Mr..
Conger said in the House that he
could take the gentleman from Essex
to the forests in his State, and as
they were so large, the General
could not find his way out, and he
would be lost. General Butler has
been jocosely informed by his Con-
gressional colleagues that if this is
so, as Mr.. Conger says, they are for
the provision in the bill to a man.

TROURIESON1

TROUBLESOME SPECIAL BE-
QUESTS. - The Freeman (Londonl
gives us an insight into some of the
singular bequests for which the
English are noted, and which have
in many instances proved an injury
to the recipients. Nearly century
ago Mr.. Jarvis bequeathed five
hundred thousand dollars to the
poor OF three parishes. The result
has been to attract the indolent and
viscious to these parishes, very
much to their detriment. A certain
tobacconist left a field, the rent of
which was to furnish six poor
women with snuff. The. value of
the field has increased enormously
beyond the capacity of noses. One
legacy provides perpetually for the
expense of burning heretics.

TO AN ABSENT WIFE.

BY GEORGE D. PRENTICE.
The following was written by George d.
Prentice, in 1859, and was published in the
Lexington MOL Express, which soon after
publication. 1t has never before
been published ON this coast We consider ii
one of the happiest of Mr.. Prentice's writings
'Tis morn-the sea-breeze seems to bring
JOY, health and freshness on its wing:
Bright flowers, to me all strange and new,
Are glittering in the early dew;
And perfumes rise from every grove
AS incense to the clouds that move,
Like spirits DER yon welkin clear
But am sad-thou art not here.
'Tis noon--a calm, unbroken sleep
Is on the blue waves of the deep;
A soft haze, like fairy dream,
Is floating DER wood and stream,
And many broad, magnolia flower
Within its shadowy woodland bower.
Is cleaning like lovely star
But am sad-thou art afar.
'TiS eye-o'er earth the sunset skies
Are painting their own Eden dyes
The stars come down, and trembling, glow
Like sea-gems in the waves below;
And like some unseen sprite, the breeze
Seems lingering mid these orange trees,
Breathing its music round the spot
But am sad-I see thee not.
'Tis midnight-with a soothing spell
The far tones of the ocean swell,
Soft as mothers cadence mild
Low breathing DER her sleeping child
And on each wandering breeze are heard
The rich notes of the mocking bird,
In many wild and wondrous lay
But 1 am sad-thou art away.
I sink in dreams-soft, sweet and clear,
Thy own dear voice is in my ear
Around my cheek thy tresses twine-
Thy own loved hand is clasped in mine
Thy own soft lip to mine is pressed
My head is pillowed on thy breast
Oh l have all my heart holds dear,
And am happy-thou art here

A Boston Boys Noble Revenge.

The Boston Globe relates the follow
ing: A working girl in this city was en-
gagged, recently, to be married to a young
man who appeared to be highly respecta-
BILE, and indeed was, as the world looks at
the matter. During the existence of the en-
gagement, however, the girls father died,
and that event placed her in very trying
position. The support of her family,
which consisted, besides herself, of her
mother and two or three small children,
devolved upon her and a little brother,
who was old enough to do work as an err
rand-bOy, and thus contribute something.
She considered it her duty to provide for
her mother and the little ones, and, if she
married, their maintenance would fall on
her husband. The latter she was unwill-
ing to have occur, even if her intended
husband would accept the charge, which
she doubted, and she therefore told him
that the engagement was at an end. He,
not knowing why she took this course, as
she was too high spirited to tell him, sup
posed that he had been supplanted by
rival, and vowed vengeance She was
alarmed by this threat, thinking that he
would do her bodily harm, but the course
which he took was far different He in
weighed the little brother into committing
a criminal Offense, for which he was sent
to place of juvenile reformation, thus
taking from the family what little sup
port was derived from the boys work.
The girl, unaided, is now supporting the
family, and her case is one of MANY

vessels having been taken of during the
year.
There were manufactured in Califor-
MIA last year S5,154, $50 cigars, OF which
IS, 0505 800 were shipped to the Eastern

The Titusville Herald says there are
upward of 100000 barrels of crude oil in
tanks at present in the oil region, to say
nothing of the numberless small wooden
tanks at the wells, which have absolutely
no protection whatever against fire.
The report of the National Bureau of
Education furnishes the following state
ment of donations and legacies received
during the year by Illinois colleges:
Lincoln leads off with $4,000; Illinois
second with $4,000, then Abingdon S3S,
600; Northwestern, $4,000; Eureka, $685.

The importations of sugar into Bos-
ton last year were 1875, 900, 600 pounds, or
$1,000 tons of 1000 pounds each, or equal
to 10000 hogsheads of 1, 800 pounds each.
This would have been full cargoes OF 430
barks and briggs of 800 hogsheads each, or
nearly nine cargoes of sugar per week
throughout the year. As the cargOes
would not average 800 hOgsheads, it would
amount to at least 600 bark, brig and
schooner cargoes, averaging $50 hogs
heads each
