There is . suggestive moral in the fol-
lowing Grecian legend: When Bacchus
was . boy he journeyed through Hellss
to 60 to Naxia, and - the way was very
long he grew very tired, and sa. down
upon . stone to rest. As he sat there,
with his eyes upon the ground. he saw .
little plant spring up between his feet.
and was 90 much pleased with it that he
determined to take it with him and plant
it i'm Naxla He took It up and carried 1t
away with him; but, as the sun was very
hot, he feared it might withcr before he
reached his destination. He found bird g
skeleton, into which he thrust it, and
went ON. But in his hand the plant sprout-
ed 70 fast thas Il started out Of the bones
above and below. This gave him. fresh
fear of its witherin2. and he cast about
for remedy. He found q lions bone.
which was thicker than the birds skele-
ton, and he stuck the skeleton with the
plant in it into the bone of the lion. Ere
long, however, the plant grew out OF the
lion - bone likewise. Then he found the
bone of an ass, larger still than that of the
lion, so he put it into the ass's bone; and
thus he made his way to Naxia. When
about to set the plant, he found that the
roots had entwined themselves around the
bird 8 skeleton and the lions bone and
the ass's bone; and as he could not take it
out without damaging the roots. he plant
led it as it was. aud it came up speedily.
and bore, to his great joy, the most deli
cious grapes, from which he made the first
wine, and gave it to men to drink. Bat
behold a miracle: When the men first
drank of it they sang like BIRDS next,
after drinking little more, they became
vigorous and gallant like lions; but when
they drank more still they began to behave
like asses.

The Territory of Utah already has i've
railroads. They all connect
with the Utah Central and Southern road;
and, running into the various mining
camps, bring down the products Of the
mines. 1t is said that Utah's system of
narrow gauge reads is more extensive and
doing more business than any point in the
world. 1t is this system of roads that has
SO rapidly developed her mineral resources.

SETH GREEN, the great fish man, has
exploded another of our common tradi-
,ions, that it Is necessary to keep quiet in
order to catch fish. Seth says fish are deaf.
He once asked the members of brass
band to range themselves about tank Of
fish and at q given signal to blow their
loudest blast They complied, and, at the
blast. not . fish stirred. This certainly
ought to be coEclus,ve. For If such q
noise would not disturb the fish can any
be imagined that would? This discovery
will tend to make fishing popular among
the women, in fact it will open to them
new aid attractive field of sport from
which they haYe hitherto been excluded
by the injunction of silence.

Sunday morning. A gang ct Lexington

The capacity of the vocal tube to give re-
sonaaice to the tones Of the larynx, and that
too, of so many varieties, or qualities, in re-
Spouse to every shade of emotion or senti-
ment felt by the singer, is indeed wonderful.
BY system of nerves and muscles, distribute
ed abundanty throughout its extent, it is en-
abled to modify at pleasure, its shape, length
and diameter at one time contracted, at an
other expanded now, heightened by the
dropping of the larynx below its natural po-
stion and, again, shortened by reverse
process. Answering, in short with quickness
and fiexibility to every requirement of reso-
nance. 1t has been abundantly shown by ar
tiicial means, that changes in the shape, size,

THE SPHINX ON THE RAMPAGE

Since Grant has begun slashing
about, decapitating heads Of bureaus
and departments in asingular but sum
mary style, the Republican politicians
are worse puzzled than ever before.
Even Simon Cameron is now on the
anxious bench, and curious to know ex-
actly what the man of the White
House means. "a gentleman" is the
expression of the Chicago Times cor
respondent, but we suspect that it was
Cameron who called last Wednesday to
demonstrate against the abrupt dis
missal of Commissioner Douglass, and
received information from the Presi-
ident that he was going to show the
politicians that he is the Presi-
dent of the United States, and
that hereafter he should remove and
appoint men without giving any one
the reasons for his action. He Will
merely issue his edicts, and woe unto
the detected administration man who
would dare to c~riticise him. Grant is
heartily sick Of the criticism that has
