sThe Awkward Age.s

A wise and sweet woman suggests,
as a sovereign remedy for the uncorD-
fortableness of that which we are wont
to call 'the awkwardage' in boys and
girlS-that time when they are too
large to feel like children, and not quite
sure enough of ofthemSelves to feel like
adults-that We should always treat
even the smallest children with the
courtesy and consideration We show to
grown up people, and then they will
never feel at loss as to their reception
thus quite escaping the uncertain aud
uncomfortable 'awk Tardage.' There
are few things more mportant i'll the
right developments OF a human crea-
ture than self respect. But how is a
child to learn to respect itself if it is
alone in the sentiment-that by no one
else is itrespected? More harm is per-
haps done children by snubbing them
than even by weak indulgence. We
have all seen homes where the slight
est expression of u child's idea on any
point under discussion was greeted
with 'Who asked you what you
thought? or with some sarcasm such
as, 'Ah, now we shall have the matter
settIed-Miss experience is freeing her
mindr 1t is SO difficult to hit the
right meaning. We do not want our
children troublesome 10 Visitors
grown up people do not care 4 pause
in their talk to listen to the r..eonSid-
cred opinions of thirteen. But sup
pose we try the experiment of respect
fIl attention for while? Would nos
the young folks stop talking, until
they had something to say, quite as
surely if they saw that their words
were listened to with attention as if
they felt that their voices were but
beating the air?

SANTANA Bay.

NEW YORK, April 6.-News has been
received here from Santo Domingo to

Consul General of Port an Prince, had
been on tour of observation to Sam
ana Bay in her Majesty's ship Wood
lark, and had afterward visited .Santo
Domingo with Il proposition from the
Haytian Govern ment for a treaty be-
tween the two Republics. Among the
the conditions proposed by treaty, it is
said, were the cessiOn to Aayti of the
disputed territory on the frontier and
the annulment of the SANTANA Bay cJn-
ventlon made with citizens of the Uni
ted States. These conditions being
admitted by the Dominican Govern
ment, Hayti or England was to loan a
considerable sum to Santo Domingo,
payable at convenience, without inter
est. The special commission of the
Stmana Bay company has not succeed
ed in obtaining an anic,bie settlement
of the questions pending uetween the
Government and the company, and the
provincial Government has declared
the Samana Bay Company convention
null and void. The commissioners
have protested against this summary
act as arbitrar ,ud illegal and instiga-

The Commercial Reporter estimates
the exports of wheat and -four from
the Columbia River, from July 1, 1873,
to July 1, 1874, at 80, 600 tons, and other
produce at 10000 tons. Here are no
less than 900 cargOes of produce sent
out OF the Columbia River in a single
year. The imports are not less than
25,O00 tons. The wheat-buyers of San

thirty cents per Genital more than buy.

ped from the latter city to Liverpool
brings about the average prices of Cali
fornia wheat. 1t costs, however, about
% per ton TO transport wheat from
Portland to San Francisco. Ships COM
ing to this port with cargoes prefer to
to make UP a return cargo at the same
port. One hundred thousand tons of
produce shipped from the Columbia
River in single year, where only a
short time ago, not single cargo was
exported, is fact worth noting, be-
cause it shows rapidly growing COM
merce in State whose interests are all
inter blended with our own. Much OF
this produce Came down to San Fran
cisco aud was here transhipped. But
every year the number of ships going
into the Columbia River for export
cargoes is rapidly increasing. This
northern commerce is IN its infancy,
but it has already attained magnitude
which foreshadows its future greatness.

Red C,p Grass.

Red-top grass will do well on good,
fair wheat land. Sown With grain il
makes firm, even sod, and is good
for pasture or hay 1t starts early IN
the spring, and is better relished by
stock for early spring pasturage than
thimothy grass. 1t Is believed to be
more free from dust than timothy
when cut and well cured for hay. Good
fair lands may yield one and one-hali
tons per acre.
AS grass of hay it is fine, sweet, nu-
tritious, making firm, even sod, well
adaped to plow under TO enrich the
land. There has been an old impress

opinion seems erroneous. L thing it

not to tury the seed too deeply, as it

BALD MOt-.TAAN.
THE SENSATION A THIRD-RATE Hoax
AN INDIAN LEGEND.
Correspondence of the New York Times.
RICHMOND, VA, March q.


RICHMOND, VA, March 81.
The Bald Mountain Volcano, q
North Carolina, has been regarded as d
third-rate hoax here from the pubica-
| tion of the first sensational rumors in
regard to it. The truth is, doubtless
that this new sensation is but the revi.
val of an old tradition, derived from
the Indians, that Bald Mountain was
once, in remote times, volcano, and
hence that absence of vegetation which
has given it its name.
The Indian legend is to the effect that
a certain tribe living at the foot of
Bald Mountain WAS annually afflicted
by the visit of ! huge bird of prey that
made his eyrie on the summit of the
mountain, and that on every visit
lied and carried away with him a
child OF the tribe. This annual atfiic-
ton had been undergone for . long Sc
rieS OF years, when great chief and
medicine-man arose, and just before
the time for the next annual visit of the
bird, began to preach crusade against
the cOtnlnun enemy. He adjGred the
warriors, as they were brave men and
loving fathers, no longer to submit to
the depedatipns- OF the bird, but to
march agaspst him and destroy him or
be destroyed.
Thus aroused, the men of the tribe
sworc to follow the chief in the despe-
rate venture, and, placing their squaws
and children in place of safety, they
encircled the / of the noNntain and
began the ascent, resolved to Kill the
bird at all hazards and at every ,eqSt.
The mountain was then clothed ia
rank veyetat TN hty forest trees
thickly unGer, fowE by Il tangled will
derness, thai adj the progress up
ward very q iuui and difficult. But
the determine triUe perSevered until,
nearing the tUp Of the mountain, what

not merely one tremendous bird hey
had to encounter and destroy. bvt q

lures, clustering in terorIous masses all

risey at once recognized how iinpossi-
BILE ii would be for them to overcome
and exterminate 50 many IF the wing
ed monsters, and they threw thetn-
selves dowH upon their faces, eXpect-
ing the birds .te rush upon them aud
destroy them. At this moment their
leader raised his voice to the Great Spi-
rit for their deliverance, and in answer
to his prayer vivid ligLtnings sprang
from every quarter OF the cloudless
sky, without a sound of thunder. slay-
ing the birds to the last one, irving the
forest trees, and wrapping the whole
mOuntain-tOp in flames, that SWeDt
from it every trace of vegetation.
Thus were the monstrous birds of
prey destroyed, and the mountain
made bald, and the tribe delivered.
The anniversary of the deliverance
was perpetually celebrated by the tribe,
and the tradition / have just related
handed down from one generation TO
another.
In his tradition turks the true story,
doubtless, of either the original forina-
tion of the ridge known as the Bald
Mountain, or of an eruption which oc-
Cured many years ago..

"Yaas, sir-ee," was the eager reply.
"Who would give cuss to live in a

Marshal Bazaine was in Mexico, and
at the height of his fame he fell in love
with the beautiful and gentle, and
penniless, Senorita Penary Pena, whose
Onlypossessions were her own charms
and virtues, and historic heredita-
ment that had decended from her
grandfather, a former President Of the
republic. at the time of the marri-
age, the young lady was deemed to
have made a great catch in husband
husband so wealthy and famous. But
in the general chapter Of vicissitudes,
time brings some curious changes, as II
has done in this case. Misfortune
checkered the career of the whilom
condescending lover, and penury and
degradation followed affiuence and
dignity. The affairs of the loving pair
were at their lowest ebb; but just a
this juncture-so the Genius Of Hcr
nance fixed 1t, to give an orthodox
announcement to this love story in act
ual life-the aunt of Madame Bazaine
dies and bequeaths to her untold wealth
and now the erewhile detected wife Of
the fallen Marshal may again HE up
her head among the proudest. Such
Is life.
