Indian Wrongs.

Over one-half off our vast territory once
belonged to the Chippewas. 1t was an
Indian paradise. Its lakes and rivers
were filled with fish, and each autumn
brought the wide rice, Gods mamma, for
the red man. The forest and prairie were
full of game, and gaunt famine never
came to the hunters wigwam. We
bought it all for few cents an acre. We
made pledges of everything Christion
people can do for heather people. will
not speak Of the way human cupidity
was enriched by the treaty. We did
not keep our faith. Our politicians made
the agencies the reward of political
flvorites. We not only permitted dis
honesty and fraud-thc fire-water flowed
like stream of death into their country,
their wives and daughters were cor
rupted, and the heather were dragged to
a depth of degradation their fathers never
knew. Worse than this, while we per-
mitted every evil to destroy them, we
left them wholly without law. No white
man has ever been punished for the rob
berry, seduction, or murder of an Indian.
We have never attempted to give them
law to protect the innocent, or punish
the guilty. They have killed each other
OH the streets of our cities and villages
no questions were asked. We have never
attempted to redress their wrongs

paper.

For trustworthy foreign newspaper,
give us the Paris Figaro. Its proprietors
are particular about facts, and its editors
and correspondents are limited to the
square truth in whatever they may write
for its columns. 1t is one Of those papers
which foreigner abroad seizes upon be-
fore all Others, confident of hearing all
about what is going on at home without
exaggcration or misrepresentation. This
is the journal which a few months ago
gave full and ungarbled account of the
attack of party of Apaches upon rail-
road train in the State of Pennsylvania,
in which the chief walked through the
cars and selected dozen or 80 of assorted
scalps without hindrance. The Figaro
was the first journal that noticed it, much
to the chagrin Of the New York Herald,
which afterward sent reporter, but the
Indians had gone. In recent number
it gives vivid account of the operations
of a party of banditti in New Hamp-
shire. The members Of this band slew
all who fell into their hands by severing
the carotid artery. The soldiery one day
came upon them suddenly just as they
had began sacking village on the Con-
necticut river. The robbers fled, but as
they passed photograph saloon the pro-
prietor turned the camera upon them,
and had them all in the twinkling of an
eye. A negative was taken, and when
proof" had been secured they were
found to be individuals well known, and
holding, most of them, high official POI
sitions. They were arrested and the
next morning hung in the public square,
the usual course of law being dispensed
with. We speak in behalf Of the entire
press when we say, "Give us an equal
chance in the news line with Figuro."-

The Population Of the World.

A report from the Bureau ofStatistics,
at Washington, just issued, contains an
interesting table of the population of the
earth. The aggregate population of the

Italy, nearly 81 millions; Spain, 164
millions; and Turkey nearly Is millions.
The other countries do not exceed five
millions each. In Asia, China, which is
by far the most pOpulous nation of the
earth, is credited with 425 millions

The Australian population is given at
1874, 800, and the Polynesian Islands at
2,763, 800, New Guinea and New Zealand
being included in the latter. In Africa
the chief divisions are West Soudan and

Cyclones.

In the Naturalist in Nicaragua Mr..
Belt has the following on the origin of
whirlwinds and cyclones: 81 am conf
dent that study of the smaller eddies
of air is the proper way to approach the
difficult question of the origin of cy-
clones. The movements of these small
whirling masses may be observed from
the outside, and their progress traced
from the incipent stage to that of disso-
luton. In the beginning of whirl-
wind there is O movement near the sur
face of the ground of light particles of
dust toward centre, attended or Occa-
stoned by rotary motion of the air.
This quickly rises into a whirling column
fifty to hundred feet or more i'm
height. On the dry hot plains of Cen
trail and South America and of Austria
liza, this phenomenon is of frequent &C.
currence, and is not unusual in our tenn
perate. ATTITUDES in summer. The whirl-
ing columns, according to Mr.. Belt, diff
fer in diameter from few feet to many
miles, and his opinion is that there is a
complete graduation from the little dust
eddies, through larger whirlwinds and
tornadoes, to the awful typhoons and cy-
clones of China and the West Indies. In
the small whirlwinds which occur over
the land, there is no evidence of the con-
densation of vapor occurring in dry air.
But where the atmosphere is charged
with humidity, as over the tropical seas,
the condensation is great. The notion,
therefore, that whirlwinds and tornadoes
originate in sudden condensation, Mr..
Belt thinks, is not well founded, the phe-
nomenon being an incident rather than a
cause of the movement. Nor is the the
DRY satisfactory one that the meeting OF
conflicting currents of air and cOnse-
quent condensation give rise to the phe-
nomenOn. Attention is directed to the
fact that many terrible whirlwinds are
dry, and run their course without pro.
ducing rain or cloud. They originate at
or very near the surface of the ground,
where the air becomes intensely heated.
The quiverng of the air over hot ground
foreshadows the whirlwind as mirage does
the simeon, and sultry heat or Cypress
i've calm do the hurricane. In the stra-
tum of heated air next the ground re-
sides the energy which produces the
whirlwind. That this, in many instances,
is prevented from rising, has been proved
by numerous observations At last the
upward tendency becomes so strong that
it breaks through the everything heavier
air, and there occurs an upward dis
charge, followed by all the phenomenon OF
whirlwinds. "-P0pular Science Monthly.

Loved and Lost.

/ fell in love with fat girl once. l
loved madly, because was loving 4O7
pounds of girl. She was amiable, good
natured, tender-hearted, and true, and ]
think she loved me. We were to be
married in the fall, and / should prob
ably have been one of the happiest OF
husbands, when an accident dashed my
prospects. She fell overheard just as we
were about to leave the wharf on steam
boat excursion. Three or four sailors
plunged after, and they got gang-plank
under her, cable around her waist, and
towed her to the wharf They then rig
ged derrick and lifted her out by sec
lions, but they were so long about 1t that
she took severe cold, and the result
was death. There were months and
months after that I never could pass a
load of hay without thinking of my lost
Amanda and shedding tears and even to
this day / never see an elephant or a
rhinoceros without her dear visage rising
up before me.-1fdr Adeier.

EDITORIAL passion is not always as
fierce as it seems. Once on time there
was fierce controversy in Memphis over
some local municipal project. While it
was still raging, the editors of the two
dailies, which had been most bitterly
arrayed against each other in the contest,
both went away for the summer, and
each, without the others knowledge,
employed the same man, a young lawyer,
to conduct his paper in his absence. The
young limb of the law, naturally enough,
took both sides of the question. He
made the controversy between the two
papers hotter and hotter on each sue
cessive day. Crowdsgathered each after
noon about the Office, and it was gener-
ally expected that the two furious editors
would shed blood. Popular excitement
was intense, when one editor came hurry
ing home from Virginia and one from
Alabama, each thinking the other was
about to murder his own substitute.
Such was the fervor of popular feeling
and evaporation, that the story was
necessarily kept quiet.

pour one quart of boiling water. Add
One-half cup of sugar and one-half cup
of salt. Add, when cooled to little more
than milk warm, one cup of yeast. Put
in warm place to rise. Keep in jug in
the cellar.
To CEMENT WOoD TO GLAss.-Make
a solution of isinglass i'm acetic acid so
thick as to be solid when cold. Heat
this and apply it. This has been tested
by fastening the end of glass tube to
pine wood; the wood gave way sooner
than the cement.
PRESERVATION OF MuK.-Dr. SAGE.
of Switzerland, recommends as n preser-
walton of milk for two days from coagu-
latiOn, even during the greatest heats, a
spoonful of alcohol per gallon of milk
French dairymen, judging by the odor,
employ preparation of chlorine.
CORN FRITTERs.-Young sweet corn,
pepper, salt, nutmeg, butter hot i'm the
pan. Crate the corn from the cobs into
basin, season and drop by spoonsful
into the pan and fry until brown. This
is a delicious breakfast relish, but re-
quires considerable time to prepare.
CLEANING STovEs.-Stovel uster, when
mixed with turpentine and applied in
the usual manner, is blacker, more glossy
and more durable than when mixed with
any other liquid. The turpentine pre-
vents rust, and when put on an old rusty
stove will make it look as well as new.
SAUsE FOR PUDDINGs.-Cream, six
ounces of butter until light and white as
possible; then put in gradually the same
weight of finely pulverized white sugar.
1t looks very inviting made up into the
shape of little pyramid, thickly strewn
with grated nutmeg. In addition you
may use at pleasure vanilla or any other
seasoning you may prefer.
To Cook RICE.-The following is the
method recommended by the French
Academy for cooking rice, during the
siege of Paris: Take one cup of rice and
One-quarter cup of water III saucepan
cover and place over a good fire; after
an hour the water will be evaporated and
the rice cooked tender, but dry, with
grains distinct, not in paste. Sufficient
salt should be added in the first place,
and care should be taken not to disturb
the rice while cooking. BY adding a
little butter, and allowing the rice to dry
little more over gentle fire, more
delicate dish is prepared. Rice cooked
in this manner. which is the same as that
employed in the East Indies, bears the
same relation to the indigestible paste of
the New England kitchen as does bread
to boiled -four

The manufacture of Valley Gem Pianos
at Ripley, o., has within the last few years
taken a prominent place among the indus
tries of the West Viewed in its relation to
Western art, the importance of the enter
prise which has been so abundantly sue
cessful, can not be overrated. The beautiful
instruments now produced from this factory
call forth the unanimous praise of all who
hear them, and who are acquainted with
their fine qualities, and their popularity is
attested from the fact that more of them
have been sold by ID. ii. Baldwin & Co., the
General Agents at Cincinnati, than was
ever before sold of any one make in the
same time in that market.

FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS.
The Doll That Lied.

" Why, Pollyl What's the matter, dear .
You look so very sad
Has your new doll been taken III?
IL can not be so bad"
Nine OF the dolls sit In a row,
But there Is one beside
See, In the corner, upside down,
The little one that lied
Out In the corner, all alone,
The wicked doll must stay;
None OF the rest must speak 10 her,
Or look there while they play.
All her best clothes, except her boots,
Are safely put aside;
The boots are painted on her feet
The little doll that lied
oh, lying's such a naughty thing!
Why, she might swear and steal,
Or murder some one, dare say;
Just think how we should feel
To have her in prison live,
Or, worse than that, he hung!
What won't she do when she Is old,
II she did this so young?
And now the silver mug and spoon
Come into use again,
And down the faces Of the dolls
The tears run fast rs rain.
Three have tipped over with their grief,
Their tears can not be dried;
Their handkerchiefs are dripping wet,--
The little doll has lied
