A Startling RumOr.

The San Francisco Commercial
Herald of July 9 publishes the follow
ing:
Very important information has
reached us from what we deem an au-
thentic source, to the effect that overt
ures have been made by the Mexican
Government to that OF the United States
to cede all the territory of the forme
lying north of line of latitude draw
directly from the mouth of the Ri
Grande to the Pacific Ocean, and that
tie matter will engross the attention of
Congress at its next session, with the
greatest probability of its acceptance.
What are to be the considerations for
this cession of territory we are not in
formed, and it is likely that the point
has not yet been settled One thing is
positive, number of our heaviest capi-
talists and bold operators heve very re-
Gently been actively in pursuit of mines
lying in the territory to be coded. Sew
eral in Lower California have already
changed hands, and mining engineers
have been dispatched to Sonora and
chihuahua. 1t is evident to us that
much commotion exists about this mat
ter in certain circles, and that there Is
good foundation for the report. BY
this arrangement the United States will
acquire Nueva Leon. Coahuila. Chihua-
hua, Sonora, Lower California and por-
tions of Sinaloa and Durango. 1t is
probable that the postponement of final
decision by the Mexican and American
Joint Commissions was based upon this
consideration, and it is not unlikely that
the Mexican Government may have been
influenced by the attitude taken by the
United States Government in reference
to Mexican inroads upon our territory,
Mexico has need of money, the States
named arc distant from the capital, and
there are no railroads or other even
moderate means of connection. They
cannot be controlled by their Federal
authorities, and are almost constantly
in an uproar. La these and similar rea-
sons may be found the inducements
which have actuated the Mexican Gov
eminent.

AN ARTLEss WRETCH.-Some one has
said that soda water was a luxury not
often to be INDUCED in by the poor
man ; but the following incident seems
to disprove the statement A: Some time
ago a very seedy-looking customer
stepped up to stand where soda-water
was sold, and demanded lemon soda.
After drinking long and deeply, he puts
down the empty glass, wipes his mouth
with handkerchief that had once been
white, fumbles in his vest pocket
plaintiyely inquiries of the clerk whether
said clerk is cruel enough to "take a
mans last penny n" Clerk says most de-
cidedly that he is barbarous enough
even for such a deed; seedy party
quickly produces one cent, hands it to the
clerk and walks off, remarking, "Weli,
that is my last cent; you said you
would take mans last cent for glass
of soda" The clerk was just four cents
short that night.

too much mercy on the man who

And the man who listened only looked
wildly at the strange memorial of his
awful deed, and, with a horror of he
knew not what upon him, fled from
the fearful sight, and left the town for
ever.
The flash of lightning which had IL
Illuminated his deed had turned witness
against the murderer by photogi ,phing
him upon the tree SO said one Of the
two scientific men in Pawpaw. The
other shrugged his shoulders. 1t was
night; there was no sun; but there
was the fgure-so good likeness, too,
that no one could fail to perceive it, now
that it had been discovered.
The majority of the Pawpawians
viewed the thing in supernatural
light, and the head of the long road re-
joiced in ghostly reputation for many
months. At last however, the
photograph faded. By close observa-
ton, one could make out marks that
might be resolved into the figure of a
sportsman taking aim at something,
just as cracks in old whitewash or the
embers of fire may be by any imagi-
native person. And the wise men of
Pawpaw are inclined to think that Rose
saw no more, but that the intuition
common to women led her by degrees
to the truth and to her denunciation of
young Lawrence. AS for the women,
they have taken the artistic ghost to
their hearts, and refuse to part from

SelfShneSS.

We have often heard persons con-
demned for their selfishness, and point
ed at as cold, heartless wretches simply
because their exertions we're directed to
the promotion of their own interest or
that of their kindred. This is an unjust
and illiberal charge, as it is invariably
made against those alone who make all
the advancements in society, which tend
to build up a country and better the
condition of mankind generally. With
out selfshness our country would fall
into agrarianism and all plod together
down the path of inactivity without the
least improvement on anything.
1t is sel6shness that has made our
railroads, our steamships, our tele-
graphs, and opened up our forests-in
fact all the improvements of the pres
emit age. Such is this innate principle
of men ali over the world that selfish
ness alone prompts them to deeds of
noble emprise, to toll amid sunshine
and storm, and to pore over the mid
night oil, in order to leave an honora-
BILE name behind as legacy for their
children. Selfshness prompts us even
to deeds of charity, and even to self
sacrifice, and we may be permitted to
say the greater the selfshness the
greater the sacrifice. Let an unthink-
il world say what it will, the principle
of .,elfshness is one which we cannot
divest ourselves of in this life and it
fingers around us even on our dying
beds, as is evidenced by the last wills
and testaments that are made nearly
every day around us. All men do not
possess that spirit of sel6shDess that
makes them believe that what they pos
sess is superior 70 that of their neigh
bors this is sorddiness.

Cure for the Hay Fever.

A neutral solution OF suIphste OF
quinine, free from adulteratlon from
chinchonia, applied to the nostrils with
a pipette, or simple nose douche, is a
certain cure. The poisonous action of
quinine on the infusoria completely
destroys them, and reveals the entire
absence of animalculse in their subse-
quent secretions. Theresults agree with
those arrived at in 1870 by DIR. Frick-
hoefer, of Schwalbach, and Professor
Busch, of Bonn, both of whom, with
Helmholtz, the great Psychologist, have
successfully applied quinine for the
cure of this parasitical malady.

LIFE AND DEATH.

Doth Life survive the touch of Death
Deaths hand alone the secret holds,
Which as to each one he unfolds.
We press to know with bated breath.
A whisper there, whisper hsre,
Confirms that hope to which we cling!
But still we grasp at anything,
And sometimes nope and sometimes fear.
Some whisper that the dead we knew
Hover around as while we pray,
Anxious to speak. We cannot say
We only wish 1t may be true.

As healthy blood flows through his veins
And joy his present life sustains,
And all this good has come unsought,
For more he cannot rightly pray,

Sure Of the best in Gods own way.
Perfection waits the race of man;

And oh the ruined piles of mind,
Daily discovered everywhere,
Built but to crumble in despair -

The rudest workman would not fling
The fragments of his work away
If ev'ry useless bit of clay
He trod on were a sentient thing.
And does the Vsisest Worker take
Quick human hearts, instead Of stone,
And lew and carve them one by one.
Nor heed the pzngs with which they break?

And hope the fuller life to taste?

the complaint of Mr.. Weiss, who thinks
the charges excessive, as in Berlin ne
could have done the whole business for
dollar. The inferiority of American
institutions is Swallowed forth by the
incident, and American liberty is not
visible to the searching eye OF the
