A CANDID PAPER.
From the Sanoma Co. (Cal) Flag.

From the Sanoma Co. (Col) Flag.
California is not invariably good
country for poor man. We cannot
honestly recommend any one to come
to this State, unless he has friends
here that will help him into business,
or unless he has some capital.
Hundreds Of the incoming emigrants
will bitterly rue the decision that
made them sell their little homesteads
and cross the plains, landing in the
promised land with theirscanty means
nearly exhausted. They will earnest
ly long for the hesh-pots of Egypt,
and their complaint will be better
founded than was that of the ancient
Israelites. In many cases starvation
will loom up as a possibility.
If a man comes here to build a
manufactory of some kind, or to till
the soil, and has money to start his
enterprise and to support himself, he
will be the right man in the right
place; but if he comes without means
expecting to earn his living from the
start by finding ready market 70,
his labor, skilled or unskilled, he il
very liable to disappointment.

Gen. Frank P. Blair, Jr., is
kept alive at St. Louis, and may be
made to recover by TRANSMISSION of
blood. About two years ago he was
attacked by slow disease of the
brain and nervous prostration, induced
by hard mental labor, and too much
tobacco and alcohol. Entire rest was
recommended by the physicians, and
he went for quietude and cold water
treatment to Clifton Springs, in this
N. Y. Last fall he went back to St.
Louis utterlyprostrated, mentally and
physically. Six weeks ago it was de-
cided to try the experiment of inject
ing into his veins blood taken from
other persons. A robust workman
was hired to contribute three ounces
of blood, and it was taken from his
arm and injected into one of Blair's
veins. The effect w's very satisfac.
tory, and the operation has been re.
peated several times. Great care has
to be taken, as the introduction of al,
| into the veins would cause instant
death. A tube is inserted from which
the air is withdrawn, and then tht
blood is forced through the tube with
a syringe. The immediate result il
exhilaration and perturbed circula
ton, and there is danger of transfus
ing too much blood at a time if tn
patient is very weak.

WHISKY AND TOBACCO.

The BLacksmith's Journal has the
following. There is much in it that
should arrest the attention of every
laboring man: "Two Of the most
formidable enemies against which the
working man has to contend, are
whisky and tobacco. They not only
work irreparable injury to body and
mind, but they contribute more to his
degradation and enslavement than all
other elements combined; they
surround him with poverty, clothe his
children in rags, and compel them to
grow up in ignorance, while the faith
er-the victim Of the destroyer of his
happiness-is placed in dependent
condition, a condition which too often
approxilnates or resembles the worst
form of abject slavery. Hei subject
ed to oppression, often imposition, and,
finding himself penniless, he submits
with a humiliation against which his
departed manhood enters not even a
protest.
"How often do we hear the answer
cant afford it come from machin-
list or blacksmith when asked to SUBJ
scribe for the Journal, or connect him.
self with our organization? At the
same time he is squandering his sur
| plus earnings in whisky and tobacco" !"

He let the spelling bee at ten
o'clock, and he stopped in a saloon on
his way home. Here be met several
friends who set 'em up divers times,
and he reached home about midnight
with confused brain and very de.
moralized pair of legs. Then he
swore that somebody had stolen the
keY-hole but his wife with fearful
scowl on her brow and lamp in he,
hand, admitted him.
"Drunk p she exclaimed.
"D-r-u-n-c (hic) THAI ezynuff:"
"Brute!''
"B-r-o-o-t (hic) Givus harder one.'
"Idiot!"
"Thaz harder, (hic) but I kin spell

giVus er sumner (hic)."
She picked up a poker and gave
him a "stunner," and the spelling be,

MAY MORNING.

Warm, wild, rainy wind, blowing ntfully,
Stirring dreamy breakers on the slumberous Nav
sea,
What shall fail to answer thee3 What thing shall
Withstand
The spell Of thine enchantment, flowing over Sc.
and lsnd7
All along the swamp edge In the rain 20;
All about my head thou the loosened locks do blow
Like the German goose-sirl in the fAiry talc,
l watch across the shining pool my aock of ducks
Redly CLEAN the rose-haws, dripping with the wet
Fruit OF sober autumn, glowing crimson yet;
Slender swords of iris leaves cut the water clear,
And light green creeps the tender grass, thick
spreading far and near.
Every last years stalk is set with brown or golden
studs
All the boughs of bayberry are thick with scented
buds;
1slanded in turfy velvet, where the ferns uncurl,
Lo! the large white ducks egg glimmers like a
pearl!
Softly sing the billows, rushing, whispering low;
Freshly, oh deiciously, the warm, wild wind doth
blow!
Pla1ntlve bleat Of new-washed lambs comes faint
from far away;
And clearly cry the little Birds alert and blihe and
gay.
happy, happy morning! o DEAR familiar place
o warm, sweet tears of heaven, fast falling on my
face!
well-remembered, rainy wind, blow all my care
away,
That I may be child again, this blissful morn Of
May.

This story comes from envious
young ladies in New York:
The other evening, at a fashionable
reception, a well~known old maid,
from Boston, whom we will call Miss
Warren, was promenading in the con-
servatory with one of our well known
New York young gentlemen. AS the
music stopped, the two seated them
selves under a palm tree, and the fol-
lowing dialogueoccurred

And five minutes afterward Miss
Warren was trying the drawing-out

"A trial of skill between two con-
tortionists-William Gaylord and a
japanese named Tomey-occured in
St. Louis. The wager was $1,000,
and the decision was to be based upon
"grace, skill, and difficult work" "
Tomey stood on a high and unstable
pile Of tubs, slowly bent backward
until the top of his head touched the
level Of his feet, and rose again to an
erect posture without losing his bal.
ance. Gaylord bent his body back
ward IN hoop until his feet were
caught under his chin, and in thai
posture trotted around on his hands
! The stake was awarded to Gaylord.

President Grant made a brief
address to the Sioux Chiefs in Wash
ington Wednesday. 1t was plain,
common-sense talk throughout, to the
point, and without palaver. The
evident intention was to convince the
Indians that whenever they are found
in the path of advancing civilization
and settlement they must "move on
and get out Of the way, and that the
sooner this policy is understood by
the tribes the better for all concerned
especially the tribes.
