s~aspensIon Of Travel of the Union
Pacific.

= The late rise of water in Bitter
Creek is a phenomenon in its way.
1t Is accounted for by a few hours
sunshine on the snow, last Tuesday,
that melted it on the hill sides and
ran the ravines full Of water that
night. These poured their accumu-
lation into Bitter Creek. and this was
swollen to she proportion of a torrent,
that dissolved and carried away the
road bed for hundreds Of feet in
RIaces. An extensive t~restlework
bridge was carried away in one
place. Near Red Desert station, the
v''flIp ove which the track is laid for
quite a distance, is IS soft rs mush
from the absorption, and the weight
and motion of a train crossing it, in
its present condition, would result in
"squashing" the road bed and arrest
ing further locomotive proceedings.
IT may be some days before the dam
age to the Bitter Creek division Of
the Union Pacific Railroad IS re-
paired, so that trains may proceed
regularly. For the present, Chey-
enne is the terminus of westward no!
travel. The route nOrthward, to the
Black Hills, continues open from
Cheyenne to Fort Laramie, and then
again travel comes to a full stop.
This is the present condition Of
travel. While matters are righting
up, west and north, Cheyenne is the
proper place to put in to.

THE BRITISH LION.
LET HIM ROAR AGAIN.

THE FOURTH OF JULY sNARL OF THE LONDON
sTANDARD-OUR INSANE REvOLT-AND OUR
GENERALLY DEPLoRABLE CONDITION
The following is the editorial from the
London Standard which provoked go much
comment at the time of its appearance: Tie
Fourth of July falling this year on Sunday,
the Americans we're obliged to postpone their
demonstrations'of good will and brotherly
love to the nation over whom they celebrate
an annual triumph till yesterday. when
they assembled in the Crystal Palace to
boast, in England and in the face of the Eng
lish nation, the disruption OF the British
empire. 1t is hardly necessary to
say that none. but Americans would
venture on such a display of bad
taste and discourtesy, and none but
English:nen would tolerate it. What would
be thought OF US were we to celebrate the
anniversary of Waterloo by public dinner
10 Paris-and what would become of the
celebrants? Would the Belgians propose to
hold, at the Hague or In Amsterdam, q
public festival in honor of their successful
revolt from Holland, or, despite the cordial
fealing which now exists b9tween Austria
and Italy, would Italians propose or Aus
TRANS permit a public dinner at Vienna on
the anniversaries Of Solferino and Sadowa?
L is equally needless TO say that since our
American guests have not sufficient sense of
the becoming TO abstain from this kind OF
offensive Standardization, it would never
enter into the head of any Englishnlan to
disturb them, though we think it is hardly
decent for any loyal Englishman to join in a
demonstration which, whatever its imme-
diate form and actual incidents, avowedly
commentaries great dishOnOr sustained
by English arms and grave disaster to the
British Empire. Such participation may be
permitted to men like Mr.. Bright, who re-
ioice in everything that tends to impair the
power and awaken the national spirit of
their country, or like Lord Granville and
Lord Kimberley, who have done their best
to deprive England of ner remaining pos
sessions. But it should be recognized that
no desire to conciliate, no friendly feeling
toward our kinsmen and former FELLOWSHIP
jects, should induce any man who is proud
present greatness, TO participate in festival
which has its origin in the worst and
MOST DIsCREDITABLE DISASTER
she ever sustained. Let us hope that in
future, as the Manchester school dies out,
and the Wings learn that though Eogland
has forgiven the political heirs of Fox, she
has never condoned the disloYalty which
exiled him and his adhereDts from power
and place for nearly fifty years, the Ameri-
can envoy and his countrymen will be left
to make their boast alone The acciderft
which postponed for day the celebration
of the greatest OF English defeats gave to
Dean Stanley an opportunity OF Improving
the occasion in political sermon, character

belongs to. He began by applying the

in the leaf of a small book. The jailer did
not consider the souvenir, important enough
to be delivered, but few days after came
similar enclosure, and yet another. This
aroused suspicion, and the governor took
the matter in hand. He examined the leaf
OF the book. 1t was only that of common
novel, twenty-six lines on page. Then be
studied the hair ans noticed the small
quantity of the gift. Counting the hairs he
found them of unequal length, and twenty
six in number the same as the lines of the
page. Struck with this coincidence, he laid
the hairs along the line of the page which
they respectively reached, beginning at the
top with the smallest hair. After some
trouble he found that the end OF each hair
pointed to different letter, and that these
letters combined formed slang sentence,
which informed the prisoner that his friends
were on the watch, and that the next time
he left the prison to be examined an attempt
would be made to rescue him. The COVER

How Far Will Bees Go for Honey

The above question, says the Rural Ne,o
Yorker, we believe has never been satisfac-
torily answered. A bee-keeper once triad the
old experiment of busting the bees with flour
as they left the hive then rode to heath
seven miles away, where he discovered his
white bees busily engaged in collecting honey.
This experiment, however, can not be relied
on, for the simple reason that pollen, with
which bees are frequently completely covered,
bears close resemb lance to flour, and might
readily be taken for it when bees are on the
wing. 1t is our belief that they seldom ven-
ture more than three miles from home for we
have known them to be in a starving condi-
ton when another apiary only four miles away
was fiourishing and gathering stores rapidly.
1t has in recent years been proved by Italian
hybrids that queens have met with drones
which were known to be at least three miles
away, but this will scarcely apply to worker
bees fitting about from flower to flower; they
must become weary before they are four or
even three miles away TOM home.

The sugar cane is generally, but erroneous
", supposed to be native of America. Its
origin is Oriental. The Spaniards, who OBJ
tanned it from the Saracens, introduced il
into America and the " est Indies. Before
America was discovered the cane was cult
waited in the southern part Of the Spanish
peninsula, and at this day the very finest
sugar in the European market is the product
of strip of land, some seventy miles in
length, lying between the mountains OF
Southern Andalusia and the Mediterranean
Sea. Alexander, the World Con4ueror, was
also the World Sweetener. The naturalists
who accompanied him on his Oriental expedl-
ton, four centuries before the commence
ment of the Christian era, obtained some
specimens of this article, which, under the
name OF "Indian salt, were kept as curiosi-
ties in the museum of Macedon and Greece.
In England sugar was rarely used, even by
the higher classes prior to the time of Queen
Elizabeth, and was not recognized by law as
an article of commerce until the reign Of
James I. The King thought it hardly worth
taking two and half centuries ago Nov,
however, the sugar paid annually into the
British exchequer amount in the aggregate,
to some millions.
About the beginning of last century fierce
war of words ragged in England and on the
subject of sugar. The medical men were di-
vided in opinion on the question OF its whole
someness. One DR.. Stare advocated its use
on the ground that it sweetened the DISPOSE
ton and produced charming effect on the
temper. For these reasons he most earnestly
recommended it to the ladies The libellous
wretch--as if they were not all sugary by ma
ture. However, they took the hint, and at
the risk of their teeth, and to the ruin of their
digestion, have been making saccharissas of
themselves from that day to this. -Philadel-

from the Montgomery Advertiser
Another vexed question was met in the
same manly spilit. We refer to that of the
qualifications for su ffrage and Office. Ii was
asserted during the recent campaign that the
Democratic and Conservative party, if sue
cessful IN carrying the convention, would inn
pose such property or educational qualitica-
lions upon suffrage as virtuallyto distranchise
the negro.
The action of the convention has stamped
this assertion as false. 1t declares that :" no
educational or property qualification for suf-
frage or office, nor any restraint upon the
same on account Of race, color, or previous
condition al asrvitude shall be made by law. y
This declaration should certainly satisfy the
most incredulous of the fact that the Demo-
Gratis aud Conservatives in Alabama have no
intention of interfering with any of the es-
tabhshed rights of the negroes.

AN AFFECTING SCENE.

Wednesday morning there was considerable
of crowd gathered around the Third Pre-
cinct Station by the demonstrative action o.
q man of about forty years. His name was
Gustave Schmidt, and he came from the
quiet precincts of Assumption. Twenty
months ago, whilst doing a thriving trade on
Bayou Lafourche, he married young woman
of pleasing address, and for long time they
lived happily together.
At last, however, there appeared upon the
scene a seductive individual who SO ingra'
tiated himself into Mrs. Schmidt's affections
that she left home and husband, taking with
her an only child They (the intruder and
the wife) arrived here few days. since and
took apartments in the Second District,
closely followed by the husband, who,
satisfied with his wife's disgrace, sought only
the possession of the child.
He was armed with writ of habeas corpus
from the District Court Of Thibodaux, and
thought that with this he might secure and
keep his little one. Managing to obtain pos
session of it, after some delay, be carried 1t to

spectacle lady, but the wife discovered Its
whereabouts and kidnapped it.
This morning the husband was before the
Recorder charged with disturbing the peace,
and pitiful picture be presented.
After hearing he was discharged, and the
wife with her seducer walked off together
Schmidt with tears yelling up in his eyes,
watched them depart, and turning to the re-
porter, said:
"There goes my wife with that man. l
took her, pure little thing, and gave her
everything she wanted.
"We were always happy together until
that fellow appeared. and then all was ended
If you could only know what l suffered last
night at the thought of losing my child, you
would pity me. It's not the woman; don't
care for her now"
With an agonized face he peerei down the
street after the baby, and, unable to stand the
suffering, he walked to the sidewalk and sat
down. Bereft of home and family he was q
sad sight, and number around suggested
shotguns, bat this did not see to meet his
appreciation.
