Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1875-09-30

One day last week resident of the
northern part of the city called at the
City Hall, and finding the official who re-
ceives taxes he said:
:" ] called here to pay some taxes. How
much shall pay?"
where's your property?" asked the
official.
Haven't got any"
And what are you going to pay taxes
ons"
:" ] dunno, but l want to pay 'em. I've
had it flung up to me dozen times that
haint no taxpayer and hain't no business
talking around, and now want to pay in
whatever is right and be as good as any
body"
but you are not taxed"
"Why haint l? Amt ! as good as
anybody?"
Eyes, but you can't be taxed when you
have no taxable property"
II can't Ell? Well, there are other
towns besides Detroit and if | can't feel
as good as anybody else here can pick
up and leave"
And he pat up his wallet and went out.

The Object in View.

Democracy is struggling hard for place
fd power. 1t wants place, to reward its
friends; 1t wants power, to punish its enc.
mics. A Democratic triumph in the Presi.
GENITAL election means the restoration of
southern influence in the administration
Of the Government? To what is that in
lleDce pledged Clearly to the payment
Of southern losses during the war. Cotton
Clalms, amounting to at least $50, 900, 900.
Caims for property used or destroyed by
our troops amounting to at least $780,
$4,000. The refunding of the cotton-tax,
@sVoO000. The shouldering of the rebel
leJt, amounting to S2,300,000, 900, by
some legislative or judicial construction
OI The constitutional amendment which
prevents its payment The payment of at
east 81 900, 100000 for slaves set free, as
,se great reconciliation sop between the
Norln and South. These are among the
Possibilities to follow close upon the heels
., Democratic restoration to power The
democrats of the South openly advocate
reSe measures as just and equitable.
Ihey mold them out TO their constituents
a' among the first fruits to follow their
Nyendency to power The executive and
esslatlve branches of the Government
yace IN the hands of Democracy, the iu-
.'CIai branch would soon be formed so as
~lenect and legalize their acts. The loyal
IgoPIe would again be placed under South
yin domination, and under the color of law
'Oulu be forced TO bear the new financial
y1ucns which would be placed upon
.em' Instead Of our debt being reduced,
It would be doubled in few years. Our
Saser money would fall in value Our
.auonal credit would be ruined, and
-o,Hlng but decree of Providence would
,.I llie country from general bankruptcy
,4 a IepudiatIon. Let our citizens con-
,,-gI ule price they must pay for their
'.auly, If through it Democracy is
%s-sIt oack to power Let them arouse
I, IL. h'eelyes to the dangers which threaten.
s ~, ,nein combine together IN thorough
-,t saIza'lon to sustain the party that

Edible Birds Nests.

Edible birds nests are found for the
most part in the Southern Archipelago.
The chief region of supply is that com.
prising Java, Borneo, Ceebes and the
Sulu Islands. The birds which produces
the nests is little swallow, Hirundo Els.
culenta. This salangan swallow, as it is
called, is slightly bigger than blue-tit;
it has brown back but the under sur
face of its body, as also the extremities of
the feathers in its forked tail, are white.
1t flies with wonderful speed and precis-
ion; and on the Javan coast, where the
surge breaks wildly against the PERCEPTIONS
and governed walls of rock, the little birds
may be seen in swarms darling hither and
thither through the spray. They proba-
bly, feed on fragments of molluskS and
other small animals which abound on
those coasts. AS you watch the surface
of the water rising and falling you notice
how the holes in the rocks are now con-
cealed, now open again, and the little
creatures, watching their opportunity,
dart in and out with lightning speed.
Their nests are fixed to the arched roof
of these caverns.
What sort of a thing, then, is the edible
Bird nest that ministers to the taste of the
luxurious Chinese? 1t is that portion Of
the fabric which serves rs a sort Of brack-
ct on which the nest itself made of grass,
sea-weed fibers, small leaves, etc, is
built There are two forms of this sup
port, one fiat like an oyster.shell, the other
deep and spoon.shaped. 1t is transparent
mass, somewhat like isinglass mother-of-
pearl, or white horn, and is of animal orr
gin. 1t was formerly supposed that this
gelatine-like mass might be prepared in
the birds crop, from sea-weed and other
marine plants. This, however, is mis-.
take. If one opens the animals stomach
about the time Of building, it is found to
contain insects, but no vegetable matter
moreover, in all species of the family of
swifts the crop Is wantAng. Dr.. bernstein
na, found that at that season the salivary
glands under the tongue are enormously
developed. On opening the bill they are
seen as two large swellings, one on either
side, and these chiefly supply the material
in question. They secrete viscid mucus
substance, like concentrated solution of
gum arabic, which can be drawn out of
the mouth in long threads; and IN the air
it soon dries, and is found to be the same
(even microscopically) as the bracket ma
terial.- Chambers Journal.

1t is not the amount of land that
makes the farm rich, but the amount well
improved. A few acres titled te its ut
most extent OF production, will yield much
more Of profit than the large farm badly
managed and titled. The worst phase of
farming is the greediness of men for land
A new conner will put his last dollar in
land, and go in debt for his house and
farming tools, and in ninety nine cases out
of hundred he will, after striving hard
and living poor, find himself, at the end of
dozen years, worse off than when he first
began. This is the general rule of those
who choose farming for their profession

STEP-MoTHER.-A lady in Boston at
tempted to deliver q lecture on ..step-
mothers" few evenings since, and it is
evident from the glimpse we get of it
that she is an admirer of step-mothers,
for she said: "What grander type of
motherhood can you fink than this? For
only tie motherless know what it is to
go through the world without mothers
care. There are counterfeits in all posi-
tlons, In ell professions; but we must not
condemn the rule on account of the
exceptions. IT'S not for you nor me to
say what woman man shall take for q
mother to his motherless children, but
when man takes q child to occupy such
position I think it is somsbodyfs bnsi-
ness" Very likely, and generally the
other children of the household will let
the one occupying such position
know before she gets through.

Afew days since, very absent-minded
man got into horse-car Mt Portland, for
Deering, Me. He had basket with him,
and to make sure that he would not for
get 1t when he got out, he placed it &C.
curely between his feet During the ride
ne engaged very earnestly in conversa-
ton with another gentleman, and when
the car arrived at the place where he
wished to alight, he hastily arose, and
naturally kicked over the basket. He
picked himself up, and then exclaimed,
What fool left that basket there for peo-
ple TO stumble over?" and got out of the
car, leaving the basket where he had
kicked it.

A stranger, with no guile in his face
and no overcoat on his shoulders, wan
dered into clothing store in Newport
the other day, and asked if he could be
fitted with spring overcoat. Tho pro-
prietor promptly answered in the affirm
alive. "You speak very. positively" re-
piled the stranger. ~ am bigger than
you take me for The store-keepcr was
still confident he had coats that would
answer. II am a pretty heavy man, "
said the stranger. II will bet you SIS
that you can't guess my weight within
100 pounds" The man was not particu-
larly large, and this astounding challenge
entirely diverted the seller of clothing
from the ordinary course of his business
He took the wager, named his guess
about l6O pounds-the money was put
up in the handsof third party, and all
started off for pair of scales, and the
stranger balanced 290 pounds of weights
The store man locked sad and puzzled.
With smile that was child-Iike and
bland, the stranger took his money and
walked off, without saying anything
more about the overcoat. It has since
been learned that this man wears lead
jacket, and has been making an honest
living by playing his scurvy trick on un-
suspecting dealers in clothing. He came
from Connecticut.
