The next best thing to not paying ones
debts is to make good excuse for the
omission. The Republic of Bolivia, one of
those happy South American States with
whose eccentricities we are all familiar,
pursued the second course. 1t has made q
good excuse-an excuse absolutely unique,
and one TO which we give the full credit of
originally. Some coupons for the debt of
Bolivia have fallen due, and of course
ought to be paid, hut they will not be paid,
and the financial agents o. the Government
explain the reason why in the following
terms cit is with the greatest regret we
have to announce to the public that, ow-
ing to the action of Colonel Church in re-
fusng to give up the key of the box in
which the funds belonging to orr Govern
ment are locked, it will be unable to pay at
maturity the coupons due on the lst July"
But creditors must not be alarmed by this
awkward conhetemps. Colonel Church is
about to be put into Chancery, whittier we
hope the boudholders will not follow him,
and when tho quarrels of the representa-
tlves Of the Bolivian Government are set
tied the coupons will probably be paid.
In the meantime the creditors are expected
to rest satisfied with the explanation OF the
fiscal agents and with this hopeful adden-
dun :-"On the part of our Government
we can assure the bondholders that it will
geligiously fulfill all its engagements, and
in this they will be supported by the peo-
pie of Bolivia"

How Much Do We Owe7

The New York Shipping Gasette savs
owe have been accustomed to consider The
national debt as representing the real in
debtedness of the country. That debt il
nc III ss tt SS, But the aggregate
county and municipal. added to the nationeii
debt, may be summed up as follows:
Bonds to railway companies. 4,sass,s
Unsettled liabilities estimated a5s Sooocs
Loans &s by national banks az a99 s SSo
ssstes essm sa%e In twentyesht ,oo ooo
other &C., SSS
Making total 952, $40 OF
This is equal to s24s per capita for the
entire population but, of course, it does
not bear equally on all. The nation also
owes, according to recent estimates, not
less than $3.50 100000 ou account of unset
tied claims pending before Congress-, the
departments or the courts. On the greater
part of this debt interest is paid at an
average rate of about six per cent. 1t ia
impossible to ascertain how much of this
indebtedness is held abroad. Bonds are
sent abroad and others. are sent home at
short intervals. Aside from the national
debt, most of the claims represent material
improvements, although nearly eighty
millions of the national debt represents the
principal and interest on railroad bonds
which have been loaned, and for which
there ia already nominal securities"
From this showing an idea may be
formed of the immense influence of the
bondholders. If Radical rule continues ten
years longer, and the national debt con-
tinues to increase at the rate of the past
ten years, at the end of that time the
Rothchilds would not take a fee simple
deed of the entire country and assume its
liabilities.

EIGHT YEARS AGO.

Eight years ago to-day, darling,
With your hand ciasped in mine,
We stood before the altar,
Before Gods holy shrine,
And heard the solemn service
That made our two lives one,
To live and love forever,
Until our course is run.
Have you been happy. sweetheart
Been happy ali the years
Has your life seen more of sunshine
Than sorrow, grief and tears
Have you never yet reptnted
The vows you took that day.
To love and cherish for all time,
Forever and for ayel
When ask myself this question,
My heart gives answer true:
My life had been so desolate
Had it not been for you
Your love and trust, my dear one,
Keep your image ever near,
And bless and thank you for this love
That casteth out all fear.

Advise to Children.

We give limited space in our col.
umns from communications for children
and young writer's. We do so to encor-
age them first to think, and mex to write
and print their thonghts. We are com.
PEELED, however, to give some instructions
in this matter. Before writing be sure
and have something to say. Tell US
about your stock, about your crops,
about your chickens, ducks, turkeys &c.,
about your fruit trees about the sue
cess of your schools, about the health
ofyour neighborhood whether you have
too much or too little rain for your
crops.
You see there are plenty Of subjects
to write about that will be of general
interest to all readers.
Be sure and look out the words and
spell correctly. This week the waste
basket received several letters from this
fault mainly. If we trimmed up the
letters the writer would sail under false
colors, and our effort to encourage edu-
cation would fail Of its object. We are
pleased to learn from our young friends,
but We want them to think as we'll as
write. Suppose the little 9 year old
girl takes her dictionary and writes her
letter all over, looking out every word,
aud see how many mistakes in spelling
she can find. No better way to improve
the youthful mind.

LARGE FARMS IN MINNEsoTA.-Col.
E. W. Grovenor, and VIM. Y. Rummey
were in the city yesterday for the first
time since Spring opened so as to permit
Of grain being put in. They have been
busily engaged in sowing to wheat, few
acres Of ground-1, ,470 in number-on
their farm in Dakota County. !, This is
the largest amount sowed by any one
party except Oliver Dalrymple who has
in wheat this season something over
100 acres. They report the grain all
in excellent condition, and are ut present
engaged in rolling it. Messrs. Grovern-
Or and Rummey came to the city yester-
day for the purpose Of purchasing the
necessary outfit for breaking a farm Of
1000 acres near St. James, in Waton-
wan County. On Tuesday they expect
to ship five breaking teams to that place,
and during the Summer turn over 1000
acres OF sod. They also visited Mime
apolls yesterday and purchased quanti-
ty OF lumber for shipment to St. James.
The farm there to be opened is smooth
prairie land abundautly supplied with
water and every way adapted to agricul-
tural purposes.

Starting Newspapers.

A proposition to !" start ano agricul. tural weekly and printing-house," on the joint stock plan, :" the shares to be made available to the smaS Sarmers and farm laborers," was defeYfed for more deliberate consideration by the Mary. land Grange. The New York Tribune, in speaking of the matter, says b t.It is not so difficult to begin such an en- terprise, but to keep newspaper run ming, in the sharp competition of the present day, requires more outlay of money and of labor than persons un- familiar with the practical details are willing to believe. The failures of such schemes in this city alone are each year counted by the dozen. and yet there seems to be something so beguiling about the business that new victims are always on the short and rapid journey to the sacrifice. It is safe to be blind and deaf to any person who comes for ward with attractive columns of figures which appear to prove that there is sure fortune in new periodical. Least of all should small farmers and laborers be asked to risk their slender savings in any such seductive lottery"
