The Chicago Tribune thus closes an
article upon the late John G. Breckin-
ridge: Over the grave of John c.
Breckenridge there will be no words
uttered save those Of respect. He was
mortal, and human charity will per-
init no reproaches upon human weak
ness. AT his grave 1t will be remem-
bered that he was man of pure and
apotless personal integrity; that he was
brave and accom- plished soldier, a
man of large ability, and equal to the
duties of his high Office; that he had
borne the consequences of his error in
judgment uncomplainingly; that he
had accepted his humiliation and OBJ
security, and that within his broken
heart there was to the last love OF
country and grateful memory of the
people who had once honored and re-
spacted him.

CAPTAIN JAMES B. EADs, the jetty
king, in explaining the formation OF
the mud Jumps at the mouth of the
Mississippi river states, that the sub.
stance of which they were formed is
much softer than putty, and not as
some supposed of the sediment which
was carried in the current of the river,
but extraneous matter, such as decay
ed twigs, logs, etc., collecting and de.
composing, they formed gases which
forced the mass upwards, but seldom,
If ever, had these Jumps been known
to rise in the channel of the river, al
most invariably at the sides. They
could in no way interfere with the jet
ties nor the objects for which they are
to be constructed.

THE Pennsylvania Republican Stat,

THE Pennsylvania Republican State
convention which met at Lancaster on
Wednesday last, for the ostensible pur-
pose of nominating candidates for gov
ernor and state treasurer, was COM
posed of mass of professional place
holders and demoralized politicians.
Its delegates were almost invariably
chosen by irresponsible county COM
mittees usually run by local Office
holders. In Philadelphia, where the
delegation was chosen by pretended
expression of the party, the "mysteri-
GUS pilgrims" the Tweed ring of that
city, merely made up ticket of ballot
suffers and lightning calculators, who
were, of course, elected without resist
ance, and who in the state convention
assumed to speak for the sixty thou
sand republicans of Philadelphia.
Elected by their own agencies, with
out any charter from the people of the
party, and without sympathy with the
honest, earnest purposes of the repub-
lican masses of Pennsylvania, the self
appointed delegates met and, i'm ODE
dience to the behests Of Cameron and
his debauched lieutenants, nominated
a ticket and adopted platform pre-
termined weeks ago. The nominees of
q convention 80 odiously constituted
are almost certain to be consigned to
overwhelming and justly merited dis
comfiture. The Philadelphia Times,

THE present outlook for food crops
is exceedingly encouraging. 1t is well
for all our planters to remember that n
large area of wheat in the north and
west has been destroyed by the late
frosts, and that the grassh oppers are
now laying waste the corn fields in
Missouri, Kansas, and other western
states. Too much attention can not be
given to corn, wheat and oats, for ii is
more than probable that the south will
be called on to export these articles, in
stead OF importing them as heretofore.

A Remarkable Suicide.

Jim Benedict was something of a prOdigal son. He took all the money that his father, a Philadel- phia merchant, would give him, and went to Chicago. where he spent the funds in riotous living. With the last fifty dollars he went on spree, ending in a Police Sta tion in Joliet. Miserable in body and mind, he decided to himself. He had left of his money two fiye-dollar bills and five dollars that he had kept as pocket pieces. He gave boy one of the bills to buy 8 pistol, some powder and percussion caps. Left by himself with these three things, he load ed the weapon, using the remain ing bill for wad and the coins for bullets, and shot hipself in the head. He died instantly of the wound, and a post-mortem ex- animation revealed the golden missiles and bits of the costly wad in his brain.

Salt Lake.

SALT LAKE, February 25tb.- The decision of Judge McKean, on motion of alimony and costs of suit in the divorce case be- tween Ann Eliza Young and Brigham Young, was rendered in the District COnrt this evening. The argument is elaborate, and the legal points involved careful ly stated. The divorce is asked by plaintiff on the ground of neg lect and ill treatment by defend ant. Brigham replies that the two parties are not intermarried. because plaintiff had 8 husband from whom she had not been di- vorced, still living, which fact he was not acquainted with at the time of marriage, April 9th, 1868, and that defendant also had mar. ried wife living to whom he was legally married in Kirkland, Ohio, January 10th, 1884. These allegations in defendants reply are called argumentive, and must be determined on the trial. Pending the suit, it lies within the pro- vince of the court to award ali mony for the sustenance of plain tiff and her two children, and money to prosecute the suit. The following is the award as given in the decision It seems just that the defendant should pay the G%r1561555 of prosecuting this aC- tiOn; the sum of 53000. and that he should pay to her for hef maintainance and education of her children, t1e further sun Oi $500 per month, to commence from Inc day of filing of the com plaint herein It is ordered ac- cOrdingly. The O0urt-ro0m was densely crowded.

A Spanish Recipe.

A writer says: 'Spaniards have a mode of preserving which is quite peculiar to themselves. A slice being cut of from one end of a large melon, the seeds and soft parts of the flesh are removed, and into the hollow thus formed a luscious heterogeneous crowd of apricots, neotarines and peach. es, of oranges, both sweet and bit. ter. .ofslices ofpine apples, Ofstraw; berries, of raspberries, is presse' and closely packed, then all Iis steeled in the preserving gfup the slice is restored to theend or the melon, reunited by the stlcki. ness of the sugar. How long IL remains under treatment, how often the syrup may be made to simmer, are details unknown to us; what we do know is that the final result is altogether the supre- nest form of preserved fruit"

About three yearsago, Robert Me- Clellan, of North Fayette Town ship, buried two little girls twins side by side. About week ago their bodies were disipterred for the purpose of removing them to another part of the cemetery. One of the bodies was found so far de- cayed that but little of it remain. ed. The other was found to be petrifed, and the contour of the body so perfectly retained that even it's finger nails were com plete. What appears strange IS that the bodies were subject to the same agencies after death, with such diverse results. Rite burg Rost,

BULLION, MT. David Neahr showed us at his store, the other day a fine brick of bullion, weigh ing about 100 tbs., which was left with him to he sent to San Fran. cisco for assay. We could not as, certain what mine it came from, All we could learn was that it was taken from a new discovery, about 100 miles east of Yuma. Some energetic miners who seem to be strans CTS, have discovered the mine, built their own furnace and
 without any machinery, run out this chunk of bullion. Of course, it is impossible to say what amount of the precious metals this chunk contains, but it has the appearance of being rich in silver.
