The use of this word for woman is one
Of the most unpleasant and inexcusable
of the common perversions Of language.
Ii is not criticism, although it is much
more in vogue among British writer's
and speakers than among our own.
With US, lady is the favorite euphonism
for woman. For every enc of the softer
aud more ambitious sex who is dissatis.
fed with social position, or uncertain OF
it, seems to share Mrs Quickly's dislike
of being called a woman. There is no
lack of what is called authoritative
usage during three centuries for this
misuse of female, as | may show, should
] undertake the discussion of American
isms, so called. But this is one OF those
perversions which are not justified by
example, however eminent. A COW or
a SOW, or any she-brute, is a female, just
as a woman is; as man is 20 more a
male than a bull Isl OF a boar; and no
woman calls herself female without
thereby sharing her sex with all the
brute creation.

The DimcuItics of Prospective Mat
EimOny.


1t is said that Sir Walter Campbell,
who was lately in a mercantile firm in
New York, wished to marry an Ameri-
can young lady, Of good position, in the
Empire State. Upon his applying to
the young lady's father, the parent
stated that he always referred all those
questions to his wife. The mother ia
her turn stated that she must refer it to
the Duke of Argyll. The Duke pleaded
that, considering his connection with
royalty, he must consult his eldest son.
The Marquis could do nothing without
the Queens consent. Her Majesty felt
that the issue must be referred to the
Duke of Saxe-C -Cobourg Gotha, as head
Of the family. The Duke rejoined that,
since the recent changes in Germany,
he looked upon the Emperor William as
his sovereign. and must bow to his ad-
vice. The Emperor said he could do
nothing without Prince Bismarck's opin-
ion; and Prince Bismarck declared he
had no opinion at ali one way or the
other; and so the question-to marry or
not to marry-was brought to a dead
lock.

Killed BY a RattIssnake Bite.

The Fresno Exposition Of the 10Th inst.
relates the following distressing case:
A distressing affair occurred on the
plains in the county last week. A. s.
Heep and some friends started out on
the plains with a view to examine some
land to determine its a~daptability for
grazing purposes. They had travelled
some distance when their attention was
aroused by a sharp, whirring noise. Not
being acquainted with the sound Of q
rattlesnake's warning, the party kept
advancing. and only stopped when the
venomous reptile, which was coiled up
and secreted in q dense tuft Of dry grass
and weeds, spnng forth and buried its
poisoned, death-bearing fangs cloar
through the wooden clothes Heep wore
into the main artery OF his left leg. just
above the knee. Involuntary, on he felt
the pain Of the bite Of the snake, no
leaned forward to examine the wound.
and rs he did so, the reptile. which had
again coiled up, sprang forward, and
struk him on the right cheek, about an
inch below tho eye. By this time his
friends came forward. and soon dis.
patched the reptile. No remedies were
at hand. Rapidly the deadly poison
diffused itself through his veins; his
limbs and body began to swell; the pu-
pills OF his eyes to distend, and soon he
was in the throes OF death. He died In
twenty minutes after being bitten. He
was highly priced by those who knew
him. and was an esteemed member Of
the San Joaquin Valley Wool Growers
Association, who greatly lament his loss.
The snake was four feet seven and n
half inches in length. weight nine
pounds, and had thirteen rattles.

Charley Willard, after months OF pros

perseverance, rewarded. Yesterday he
showed us several fine specimens OF ore
taken from his new discovery, which as
say on an average Of about $500 to the

with q prospect OF its rapidly increasing
in dimensions. The mine is on the
north side OF the mountain and has been
named the Chicago.
We are informed that the late rains
did considerable damage to the hay fields
in the vicinity OF Huntington and Duck

dy cut was spoiled for use. while that
still standing was somewhat injured.
The crop, however, will DO large, and
will be saved unless rain should set in

Stocks arr Money.
IRON the 8. =. Al,.. Jul, a.


The stock market was improved in
tone this morning. The disposition WA
rather to buy than To sell. and prices
very generally advanced. There =
many stocks that have an immediate fu-
ture, like the Empire and Imperial. con-
centrating. and the general appearance
is good. The very hot weather which
has prevailed in the Comstock region
has affected operations. In tho m
perial. Empire shaft, for instance, the
work il by S-msn shifts, changed every
few minutes; even at the bottom OF the
shaft A half hour stretch isa long one
for q man. Hence all speed Ii used In
making yentilating connection. In the
Empire Mill the winze from the l70O q
the lS50-foot level was expected to be
opened to-day TO clear the air 30 that
sinking may be resumed in the ore to
the 2O0O-foot level. in which level the
station timbers are in. Sinking in the
ore will release hot water which will
raise the temperature Of the mir and ven-
tilation must first be had. In progress
ing for the Wine the ground indicates
another body Of ore to tho west. All
the mines have been affected moro or
less by the hot weather. on which cir
cumstance the Bear party play for all 1t
IL worth. The market closed strong.
In the afternoon, with a small amount
of business, there was an advance in
some cases. particularly the Virginia
stocks. Crown Point-Dispatch OF tho
2lst Y awe commenced TO connect
the new machinery to-day, and no ore
will DO taken out from the mine until 1t
is completed. II will probably take the
balance Of the month to put everything
In running order" .
Money continues very abundant at
the banks at the usual terms, 1@lL
per cent. per month for commercial
paper, etc. The loan societies
lend as they can at s @l0 per cent. per
annum, and there seems to be q con-
tinued good supply in the hands OF
capitalists. This ipds employment on
terms which are fixed by the circum-
stances Of each application. The abund-
ance Of capital, resulting from the large
production Of wheat and bullion In the
last two years. has not yet found its
level by stimulating new employments
for II. This process must DO very slow
in presence Of the damaging effects OF
the last dis~organizing Legislature, which
disturbed the relations Of capital to in
vestments, checked enterprise and made
capital doubly cautious as TO what infiu-
ences II should be exposed to. The EI-
changes indicate that the exports from
the country, added to the sums sent
hithsr for various purposes, mines, ETC..
are quite equal to the drafts upon the
country. II not in excess Of them, and
rates Of Exchange are dull.

Poor Fellow.

The Boechsr-T iltou expose is having
a dreadfully blighting effect in San
Francisco. The Alta Of yesterday says:
Isaac Blight. the man who attempted
10 commit suicide on Tuesday night, nj
his boarding house on Sacramento
street, was brought before the Commits
sioners Of Lunacy yesterday. II was
shown that he had bought q three-ounce
vial OF laudanum and drank Il of at one
draught. It operated a. m emetic In
stead Of poison, and the consequence
was that his life was saved by the over
dose. He gave as q reason for attempt
ing to commit suicide that he had no
money, was out OF work, and friendless.
He also said that he had been brought
up a strict Christian and q true believer
in tho doctrines Of Christ. The late
revelations in the Bsecher- Tilton case
had somewhat unsettled his mind, and
he believed this was the cause which led
him TO attempt to take his own life.
The evidence was not deemed sufficient
to send him to the Insane Asylum, 90
the case wa continued until to-day,
when the statements OF those who have
known him previous TO this occurrence
will be taken.

Mn. o. A. LocuRASr. formerly Chief
Justice Of Georgia, has written a letter
warmly urging General Grant for a third
term. He says he has favored him for
two terms. and will enter the third with
greater zeal and enthusiasm than ever.
He thinks tho South cannot elect n
Southern man, or secure the adoption OF
n platform e~ongenial to its sentiments.
II must. therefore. take a Northern man
with q war record. and must adopt q
platform Of union. nationality and 10y
atty. He continues: "This being u
position. va must consult our interests
and not our feelings, a. to the next
President. In n word. Southern poll
ticians must not expect in Thurman, or
Hendricks, or Hancock, to find agree
msnt with the principles Of tho Georgia
Democratic party. I happen to know
hundreds Of the Northern DEM
ocratic party. and I know that
they are no sympathizsrs with the
prejudices Of politics so familiar
and popular here. These facts being
true. tho hope OF Democratic success in
the next elections is to overthrow the
majority in Congress who would vote
for the Civil Rights bill. In this sue
cess I heartily sympathize, for, say
what we will. this land would become a
desert before the features Of that bill
will be recognized or acquieseed in.
These facts I refer to. before proceeding
briefly to say, believing President Grant
to BE- opposed to iniicting this outrage
upon the South. and feeling assured Of
his strength and craftsmanship, and
agreeing with him on the financial situ-
alton. and on the disposition which has
marked his course in the recognition Of
State rights. I feel a vast interest in his
reelection, as the preservation OF our
present condition is so essential to our
present prosperity"
