Fad's Jetty Bill.

The west and sozth, irrespective of
party, unitedly favored the bill. The
provisions of the bill, as amended
and passed the house, are these: That
john B. Eads, of st. Louis, be au-
thorized to construct such permanent
and sufficient jetties and such auxiliary
works as are necessary to create and
permanently maintain a wide and deep
channel between the southwest pass of
the Mississippi river and the Gulf Of
Mexico, and for that purpose he may
construct in the river an outlet or pass,
and likewise in the Gulf of Mexico
such walls, jetties, dikes, levees and
other structures, and employ such
| boats, RATS and appliances as he may,
| in the prosecution of said work, deem
necessary. Provided, that no such
structures employed shall materially
| interfere with the free navigation of
| said pass, and to protect said works he
may build and maintain such levees as
may be necessary to secure their per-
| manency along the banks of the river
! or southwest pass. Provided, that un.
] less the construction of the work shall
/ be substantially commenced within
eight months from the approval of this
act. and prosecuted with due diligence,
these provisions shall be void, and un-
less Eads shall secure a navigable depth
of twenty feet of water through said
pass within thirty months after the APP
nroval of this act, congress may revoke
the privileges granted and cancel the
obligations assumed by the United
States unless Eads shall, after securing
twenty feet of water seenre an addi-
tional depth of not less than two feet
each succeeding year thereafter, until
twenty-six feet shall have been secured,
and four feet additional. or thirty feet,
within twenty-four months after having
scored twenty-six feet; and IN case
Fads shall fail to comply with the fore
going conditions as to depth of water
and time for any period of twelve
months IN excess of the time fixed,
and the act shall absolutely become
null and void without action by con-
gress. These conditions are made OBJ
ligatory upon Ead's heirs. That the
conditions prescribed being complied
with, the United States agree to pay

Fat in Forage Plants.

The Scientific American makes the
following statements, which are well
worthy the attention of stockmen and
farmers generally, showing as they do
the value of the grasses as at-forming
food, both in green and dry state
To any one not chemist or q quad
ruped, the last place to look for fat
would be a hay-mow or a stack of hay,
yet it appears from recent investigations
that fat is not only an essential constit-
uent of hay, straw, and similar forms
of vegetation, but one of considerable
economic value.
In the lower leaves of oats in blossom,
Arndt found as much as 10 per cent. of
the dry weight to consist of fat and
wax, the latter appearing as the blush
bloom so conspicuous on the leaves of
luxuriant cereals. In fodder crops gen.
orally the greatest portion OF fat is
found IN young and thrifty. Thus Way
found early meadow grass to contain as
much as 81 per cent. of fat, while In
that of the same meadow, collected in
the latter part of June, there was but
little more than 2 per cent. The pro-
portion of fat is increased by nitro
genous manures the grass of sew
sge1 meadow at Rugby contained above
per cent. OF IaI, Nnlle similar grass,
not sewaged, afford, d less than 3 per
cent. of fat.
The nature of this sort of vegetable
fat was investigated some little time
ago by the German chemist, Konig, who
found that by treatment with strong
alcohol, the fat of grass and clover hay
could be separated into two parts, one
a solid waxy substance, the other fluid
/ fat, soluble in alcohol. At first he
considered the latter to be true glycer-
inc, but changed his mind after the in
vestigations of Schulz, who proved that
! though it contains the same proportion
of carbon and hydrogen as ordinary
fat, the fluid fat of hay IS something
quite different, since no glycerine car
! be obtained from il,
KoDig has since confirmed these re
suits and carried forward the investi
CATION, showing that the fat of oats, rye
and vetch seed is similarly constituted

&c drIgln Be- indian Names.


A member of Major Povell's expedi-
tion, which has been engaged in the
territories, furnished the Tribune some
interesting notes of the discoveries
made in the origin of Indiaa names.
It seems that each tribe or primary or
gsnization of Indians, rarely including
more than two hundred souls, is, in
obe5isnee tothe additional laws of these
people, attached to some we1l-6e6ned
territory or district, and the tribe takes
the name of such district. Thus the
D-intais, known to white men as
branch Of the Utes, belonged to the
Uintah valley. U-tmp is She bRms for
pine too -meap, for land or country I;
U-im-too- meap, pine laad but this has
been contracted TO U-in tab, and the
tribe inhabiting The valley were called
U-in-tsts. q is the term signifying ar
row; U-too-meap, arrow land. The re-
gion of the country bordering on Utah
lake is called d too-meap because of the
great number OF reeds growing tb ere from
which their arrow-sha were made. The
tribe formerly inhabiting Utah valley
was called U-tah-sts, which has been
corrupted into the name Ute by the
white people of the country, The name
U-tah-ats belonged only to q small
tribe living in the vicinity of the lake,
but, it has been extended 50 as GO in
clude the greater part of the Indians of
Utah and Colorado. Another general
name used by white men is PiUtes A
tribe of U-tah-ats being defeated and
driven away by a stronger tribe, who
occupied their country and took their
name, were obliged to take a new name
corresponding to the new home In which
knEry znff1a1 4hor~15elr7ar Fl-rkA At,arv. oil
called themselves Pal Utah ats or true
U-tah-ats. The corrupted name Piutes
is now applied to the Indians of a large
section of country. Several of these
tribes hav6 numerous names, and in
this way the nnmbsF of individual
tribes has probably bee n mitch ovefesti-

A Discouraged Ror.

Crabapple's boy had read that touch
ing Thanksgiving story about the chap
who ran away from home when a boy
and went to sea and was not heard of
for years and years and how every
Thanksgiving day the mother sat q
plate for the wanderer, and kept seat
for him at the table, and how the gray
haired sire, when he offered blessing,
prayed for his Wayward son-prsyed
that he might return in safely 10 the
paternal roof.
And then one Thanksgiving day, when
they had abont given him mp for dead.
although the plate and vacant chair told
the story of a mothers undying hopes,
just as the family had sat down to the
Thanksgiving dinner, there came a ran
at The door. Come in :" cried the
sire, and in bounded the boy in a sailor
Jacket and a tarpaulin bat Just home
from 3 wishing voyage Such rejoicing
as theEe was IN that house. How his
father shook both his hands, and how
his mother Hept over him and embraced
him, and how all the brothers and sis
ters, aants and cousins hung around
his neck and tugged at his sailor jacket.
It was worth Drawing the dangers Of
the sea TO meet with such q welcome on
his retu-n. He sat Lt the feast IN the
chair that q mothers deafhiess love,
and hope, and recollection had always
placed for him, and never was there q
happier Thankse wing since that cher
ishsd anniversary was invented
Crabapple's boy wept over that story

wondering whether such a fuss would
be made over him should he run away
from home and then turn mp again

finally determined TO test the business,

Conversation as an Arr.

We ell converse-or, IN other words,
tax with each other-unless forbidden
by unkindly nature, as in the case of
deaf mutes, or compelled by arbitrary
force to maintain a silence we abhor.
We occasionally read of people who, IN
a fit of caprice, resolve never to bestow
upoR their fellow creatures the benefit
OF their discourse. But such, people
may be called phenomenal. Men and
women may be taciturD, Just IS men
and women may be loquacious, but
voluntary silence is never to be expected
OF any human being possessed of the
ordinary desire to secure information
supposed to be locked up In the bosom
of another, Of any one gifted with a
common anxiety to impsrt information
to others. Tons ues were made for vocal
purposes, and humanity is apt to regard
them, in its own case, as made for
speech. Whether the inferior orders of
creation entertain each other with con
versaiion or lot is a question we leave
to scholastic disputants; but that no
two of the human family will long re-
main silent if placed within sight and
hearing of each other, is an accepted
fact. IF they can think, as strangers,
of no other coDgenial point of interest,
they will dilate upon the weather, and
the way TO mutual discourse thus opened
upon neutral ground, the path to so-
c1ablltty becomes one of facility.
But, after all, mere speech is not con
Versation in the stricter sense, and of
those with whom We talk every day,
how few really converse well-how few
Of them so interest us with their con-
versation that we listen to what thev
utter with qualification, aud IN their
absence long to listen to them again.
Is conversation, then, an art? Speech
we know TO be q natural gift but is
conversation itself-the kind of conver-
satiOn that first wins and then fasci-
mates our attention. gift only ac.
quired by tuition and experience d? The
French think SO, we presume, for we'll
known professor in Paris adVertises to
give lessons in the art of converse
ton ;" and If professors teach ladies, in
youth, how to walk gracefully, why not
how to talk ia the same manner? For,
although everybody walks and talks,
not more than one in a hundred
do either, without instruction, in q
manner calculated TO earn an honest
compliment. The art of conversation
is realized as such In a moment by a
person unsccustomed to society, if sud
denly introduced to a gathering of in
tellect. However fluent in speech ard
selfp0ssessed in manner upon ordinsYy
occasions, even the boldest feel dis
mayed upon entering a sphere pervaded
by an atmosphere of mental culture.
They are at once conscious of their in
ability to rise to the level of their sur
roundings. They have language, and
they may have assurance, but they lack
the buoyancy inspired by familiarity
with the art of conversation-justa as the
untaught founderer in deep water sinks
becauee, with hands aud feet like his
neighbor, he lacks knowledge of the
art of swimming.

some Of the horses, as they lay upon
the ground, having recovered from the
first agony of their wounds, fell to eas

observed quietly grazing on the field
between the two hostile lines, their

around them, caused no interruption to

a MarquIs's NarrIag Q.

The following is given as French
romance of the present yeEr: Near

iIy called Gayraud d'AuIilhon. The
eldest son of the hsuse lately fell in

Dc EnrIl.h Flre 0.C-IIoef Tea.

Our British cousins have fashion
able g fiva o'clock tea, I" which is be-
coming excessively the g elegant thing"
in London. The entertainment is Of
mary kinds. There is first the informal
gathering, Whieu o3tly Heos sssitates the
production Of more cups and ssticers to
supplement- the hostess's usual ante
prandial rejection : second, the meeting
of ten or twelve guests invited specially
to NEST each other third, the larger

her invitation card that she viii be 8 At

fourth, the tea devoted 20 " Amateur
Music - and; lastly, the tea which is
merely a day instead OF night recep-
ton. For the casual five o'clock tea
but little or no preparation is required.
Intimate friends find the lady with her
two-tiered tea table by her side, the mp
per shelf bearing the silver teapot,
cream jug, sugar basin. hot water keb-
tie, aud one or two cups and saucers !;
the lower shelf has plate of thin bread
and butter, cake, and the reserve
cups. A harlequin set is considered
prettier than one of which all the cups
are alike those saueers which have. a
sort of faH- SHAPED addition for holding

when convenient. The second enter
tsinnent differs somewhat !; the scene is
changed from the boudoir to the draw
ing. room, and tbs tea is placed on
larger table. If the hostess has no
daughters. she generally gets some
young lady to preside over the tea
table, so as to leave her at liberty 10

tableeloth, though not absolutely un-
known, is decidedly unusual. The
tables which have flaps that fold down
so that when not in use they stand al
most fiat against the wall, are the most
CONVEX lent for the purpose, as it Obvi
ates the trouble of moving the things

third there are two methods; one like
the preceding, only using q larger
table and having two or three young
ladies to assist in dispensing the tea, or
else to have long narrow table across
the end of the back drawing-rOom, and
let two maids be in attendance behind
it. This supposes larger party, and
therefore ices and claret cup should be
provided. In summer, of course, straw
berries and cream find most appro-
pirate place on the tea table.

Literary Composition.

Byron wrote ''The Corsair" in ten days,
at the rate of two hundred lines day,
and sent it to the press as it was writ
ten, published it with hardly a correc-
tion. Lope de Vega wrote three hun
dred dramas for the stage in one hun
dred days. The average amount of his
work was nine hundred lines day.
Voltaire wrote "Zaire, in three weeks,
and "Olympie" in six days; Dryden
wrote his "Ode to st. Cecilia" at sit
ting. The finest oi Elizabeth Barrett
Prowning's poems, "The Lady Geral-
dimes Courtship," was the work of
twelve hours. It was written to COM
plete the original two volumes of her
poetry, and to send out with her proofs
to America. Shakespeare was not one of
these slap-dash workers and Shaks-
peare, with his thirty-four plays, has
conquered the world. Dickens, when
he intended to write a Christmas story,
shut himself up for six weeks, lived the
life of hermit, and came out looking
as hRggard as q murderer. Tom Moore,
with all his effervescence and sparkle,
thought it quick work if he added sew
enty lines to "Iialla Rokh" in a week,
although living out of the world in q
writing box in the peak. Planche pro-
duced his burlesque at an equally slow
rate, thinking ten or dozen lines day
good work. The author of "Caste'
and " School" was one of the slowest OF
workmen. Even Albany Floublanque
often wrote his articles in the Examiner
six times over before he thought them
fit to go to press-iti is said he wrote and
rewrote his "Tgo Queens" eight times.
That exquisite tribe of KInglake's s,
s Eothen" =" Was rewritten five or si1
times, and kept in his desk almost a:
long as Wordsworth kept "The White
Doe Of Rylstone."
