MEAT.

We extract the following. upon stock
aud mining matters, from the San Fran
cisco Stock Exchange. Of the 9th instant:
Tho ways OF Providence are inscrutable,
30 say those who minister the pulpit;
but the ways Of those who deal in stocks
are even moro inscrutable, says an ir-
reversnt operator. While Justice was
weak ON Saturday. woodville. its arith.
metical complement. was strong. Tho
minority crowd nre thirsting for blood,
and thsy will doubtless get some before
long or quit. The strangest rumor in
connection with Justice and woodville
Ia that hands have been shaken over the
bloodiest Of vituperative chasms, and
that the enemies and Investigators OF a
week or q month ago are the friends oil
to-day. aud are now engaged rs mutual
friends in knocking down what was set
up erstwhile. Wonderful are tho ways
OF stocks.
Bat not moro wonderful is the prompt
declaring Of q regular dividend OF $40
per share by the king Of all mines, Con.
boituhteu Nhginih, ou cesuiu"y 800"
Twenty dividends have 40 far been paid
by the Consolidated Virginia. amount.
ing ia all TO tho handsome sum OF Sl3,.
900. 900. or $3.50 per share. The his.
tory Of no corporation in the world
shows such a return to Stockholders.
The credit for all this belongs to Flood,
MacKay. Fair and O'Brien. They have
all made piincely fortunes from their
mine. These gentlemen have stoodn mp
against every disadvantageous eireum'
stance; fire and flood have had no fears
for them, and to show how well they
have managed the business Of the COM
pany for the benefit Of tho stockhold-
ers. they have declared n second divi-
dend Of $40 per share in the face OF the
destruction Of their big mill and hoist
ing works in the big fire, since which
time the extraction Of ore has been
necessarily limited. Comment Is en-.
tirely unnecessary. Tho mining world
recognizes these gentlemen managing
Consolidated Virginia as tho kings.

Fourth Round-Calfcry still
while Gallagher came ON the platform
looking as IL he would much prefer lying
down and giving up the match TO crap
ping with his wiry antagonist. This
round was still shorter than the pro
eeding one. lasting only three and a half
minutes. Gallagher again coming out
below.
Mr.. Murphy then stepped forward
AMI announced that Gallery had won
the match. Three cheers were given
for both men, aud their friends stepped
around and congratulated them OH tho
skill they had displayed.
The conduct Of some Of the men who
lost their money on Gallagher last night
was in striking contrast to that Of those
who backed Chatham in his encounter
with Williams, q few years ago; for
whereas, in that instance, the beaten
man was heaped with excavations, Gal
lacher received not n hard word; but, on
the contrary, met with nothing but the
most courteous treatment from those
Who had Lost their hundreds on him.
This is a hint at tho different influences
Of the two manly exercises. which those
so inclined can pursue to their own sat-
isfaction.
Gallagher says he moderated his man
and was, therefore. not in such condi-
ton as he ought to have been. lie says
he is willing to wrestle him again after
taking a months training; but It Is pro-
babls that no such match will be made
at present. rs Gallery talks OF ehallsng-
hug n man named Martin. who resides IN
this town to wrestle him for sl.0oO =
side. and wishes to have Gallagher act
M his trainer. Gallery Is decided in his
opinion that Gallagher is the most skill
ful wrestler he ever met. and in this do
cision everybody concurs. Endurance
and not superior skill-although Gallery
10 no slouch-is what won the match Of
last evening.

JOKING a JUDGE,

Judson Il. Mills, of South Carolina,
was Judge of "A District Court in North
ern Texas and fond of joke, but was
very decided in the discharge of his duty.
Thomas Fannin Smith was practicing
lawyer at the bar, and having shameful
ly misstated the law in his address to the
jury, turned to the Court, and asked
the Judge to charge the jury according
ly. The Judge was indignant, and re-
piled:
''Does the counsel take the Court to
be fool:"
Smith was not abashed by this reproof,
but instantly responded:
''l trust Your Honor will not insist OH
an answer TO that question. as might,
i'll answering it truly, be considered
guilty of contempt of Court"
Fine the counsel $40, Mr.. Clerk
said the Judge.
Smith immediately paid the money,
and remarked, 'It was so more than
the Court could SHOW
''Fine the counsel $50, said the Judge
The fine was entered by the Clerk,
and Smith not being able to respond in
that sum, sat down.
The next morning, OH the opening OF
court, Smith rose, and, with much def
erence of manner began:
MAY it please Your Honor, the Clerk
took that little joke of yours yesterday
about the $50 as serious, as perceive
from the reading of the minutes. VIII
Your Honor please to inform him Of Iii,
error, and have it erasedf'
The GOODNESS Of the request, and i'm
piled apology, pleased the Judge, and
he remitted The fine.

OLD SONGS.

\ pretty song is never lost; somebody
songs do not stir and enliven Us like the
new, but they are 50 resting when we
need rest, so healing when we need
balm. Nearer, Ny God, to Thee, how
strengthening it is What power there
is in it to lift fainting Christian on his
feet, just after some awkward pause in
u prayer meeting.
"Do They Miss Ne at Homcl' is n cast
of old song, Yet many of us hum it on
the sly at eventide. 1 know n Boston
editor, whose gay little wife has q lonely
father and mother among the highlands
OF New York. An abundance nf new
songs grace her piano, yet Oh IA lowery
day, if you live next door, you will be
attracted by familiar old song which
dies out in saying. Il wish you were
here" And such thrill of feeling 81 e
puts into it, too.
The Star-Spangled Banner" will lift
a fainting invalid into sitting posture,
and he will tell you that lac is refreshed,
when the same eXertion would have
wearied him without the song.
Let those sing for us who can sing so
as to thrill rs, make us laugh and dance
and HITTER. The great poet turns our
very discOris i.,tO harmony, for he
knows well the pages Of unwritten IIu-
sic and poetry that lie hidden in our
simple souls. Il Is a great achievement
to compose great songs, for it echoes so
after We are gone. Like light from II
star, it shines on and Oh after the orb
has dropped from its place in the heav-
ens.-MrS. B. e. Rude.
