at the post of duty-and nothing is left
but kneeling figure diffusing calm, a
dead face smiling peace, and the uncov-
cred heads and reverent hands of fisher
men rescuing from the deep its prize.
Truly, the brave captain did great work
at his post of duty.
Let it be thoroughly and forever un-
derst0od that death Is the poorest posi-
BILE apology for an evil life, that man
cannot betray his trust and think to
escape condemnation by dying. He may
take himself out of the realm of human
punishment, but not out of the human
sentence; nor can his children 30 escape
heritage of woe. What the world
wants is not remorse and despair, calling
themselves by the name of courage and
flying tothe refuge of death; but the cour-
age of life--faitb, prudence, truth, fidelity
of obligation, absolute, unimpeachable
trustworthiness-wise captains who will
drop their lead into the sea, not foolish
ones who, too late, will drop themselves.
Courage is not 80 cheap thing as to be
awarded to him who cheaply dies. II
belongs rather to him who Loyalty
lives, watching at the post of duty
and, may it please heaven, coming into
port bravely, with staunch ship and liv'
ing souls.

Useful Information.

DIR. OLIVER HOLDEN, of Drs. Garvin
q Co., Chicago, hands us the following
directions for disinfecting by an easy and
cheap method: One pound of green cop
peras, dissolved in one quart of water,
and poured down a water-closet will
effectually destroy the foulest Odors.
Simple green copperas, dissolved under
the bed in any vessel that will hold water,
will render hospital, or other place for
the sick, free from unpleasant smells.
For butchers stalls, fish markets, slaugh-
ter houses, sinks, and wherever there are
offensive, putrid gases, dissolve oopperas
and sprinkle it about, and in few days
the smells will pass away. If cat, rat
or mouse dies about the house and sends
forth an offensive gas, place some dis
solved copperas in an open vessel near
the place where the nuisance is, and ii
will soon purify the atmosphere.

1t must be conceded that the story of
John King, of Tennessee, renders won
derful toad stories easier of belief than
hitherto. Mr.. King was, thirteen years
ago, prosperous Tennessee farmer, of
strong Border-State convictions as to the
improperly of recognizing the existence
of civil war. Unfortunately his farm
was situated near the outposts of the
Confederate and the Federal armies.
The Confederates being pleased with the
quality of his corn, decided that he was
Northern sympathizer, and accordingly
raided upon his corn with much en-
thusiasm. The Federals fancied his to-
bacco possessed decidedly Confederate
flavor, and therefore felt it TO be their
duty to employ it in the great work of
preserving the Union. Tired of making
these contributions, he seized the oppor-
tunity of few days freedom from mo-
lestation, and removed himself and all
his personal property to cave in the
Cumberland mountains. No sooner had
he established himself in his new quar-
tiers, and sat himself down to read an
ancient file of the National InteiHgencer
until such time as the war should end,
than sudden rain storm brought down
q huge rock across the mouth Of his
cave and sealed him in impenetrable
darkness. For thirteen years he inhab-
tied this retired abode, living upon his
store of corn, and drinking water from a
convenient spring. At the end OF that
time, workmen employed on new rail-
way unexpectedly blasted hole through
the roof of his cavern, and were aston
ished to find a white-haired Tennessee
gentleman, who loudly asserted his
entire neutrality, and called his rescuers
TO witness that il they touched his prop
erty he would complain either to Gen
eral Sydney Johnston or to General Buell.,
as circumstances might dictate.

The BirthDlace of Man.

Recently noted Eastern geolOgist adj
vanced the theory that the western
part of the continent of North America
was the birthplace of the Oldest race OF
man that the tribes upon the Pacific
coast built their own ships and launched
upon an unknown sea
TIE sail beyond the sunset and the paths
OF all the Western stars,
reaching the distant shores of Africa,
where they poured in hosts through Chi.
ma, India and westward since. Recent
discoveries in California seem to furnish
curious confirmation of this belief. A
California geologist, in reviewing evi.
dences of the antiquity of the human
settlement near the present town OF
Cherokee in that State, estimates its age
to be none less than one hundred and
eighty thousand years. He says that
the traces by which this vast antiquity
is measured are numerous stone house
hold utensils, found in undisturbed white
and yellow gravel of subaqueous for.
.mation. They are principally mortars
some of which have been found at the
depth of forty eight feet from the surface
of the gravel underlying Table Noun
tain. Their distribution seems to indi
cate positively the former existence Of
a human settlement on that ancient
beach, when the water stood near the
level at which they occur; time ante
rior to the volcanic outpouring which
Table Mountain records, and anterior tC
the glacial epoch.
A city one hundred and eighty thou
sand years old seems to pass the meas
ures of human conception. By the side
of it the discoveries of Nineveh are the
merest child's play. Unfortunately
there is no written history save thai
which the imperishable implements o
household furniture convey in their very
existence.

Elections.

The earliest election returns from the
November State elections indicate that the
Democrats have carried Mississippi, Mary
land and Virginia, and that the Republicans
have carried Kansas Massachusetts,, Min
nes0ta, New York, New Jersey, Pennsyl-
vania and Wisconsin.
The Memphis AvaLanche's Jackson, Miss,
special says the election passed OF quietly,
and not a single disturbance is reported any
where. Returns from all parts of the State
indicate an overwhelming Conservative vic.
tory. . They have carried every doubtful
county, and have a decided majority in the
House and Senate.
In Pennsylvania it is thought Hartranft is
elected by an increased majority.
Massachusetts elects Rice, Republican, by
respectable plurality-from 1000 to 1000
and gains heavily in the Legislature.
In Maryland the entire State Democratic
ticket is elected by q handsome majority.
Scattering returns from MinnesSta indicate inca {,
by majority of from four thousand to eight
thousand, with perhaps the exception of
thousand, with perhaps the exception OF
Treasurer.
The dispatches from. New Jersey, show
that the Republicans have carried thirty
members of the House OF the Assembly,
with three Republican counties to hear
from, which will probably swell the number
to from thirty.six to thirty-eight. The House
| publicans will have a good working ma
jority. III
Alexander Lewis, Democrat, has been
elected Mayor of Detroit by about ], 800 ma
jority.
A dispatch from Portland, Oregon, says
later election returns materially reduce the
majority for Lane (Dem.) to Congress. A
dispatch from Salem says returns indicate
the election o, Warren, Republican, by a
small majority. "a
Huck, Republican, for County Treasurer
20 ,99S; Hesing, 26,4l4; Kelley, S,7S4. These
figures include all but two towns, which will
give small Republican majorities. Jones
Republican, is badly defeated for County
Commissioner, by Nelson, by about 400 ma
jority. All the Republican candidates are
elected by majorities ranging from three tt
six thousand.
Latest from New Jersey says the Legisla
turc stands Senate-l2 Republicans, Dem
ocrats; House-S7 Republicans, 20 Demo
Gratis.
The Albany Journal says: Our table to
day makes New York Democratic by
majority between eight thousand to min,
thousand. The Senate will stand twenty
two Republicans to eighteen Democrats
more than two-thirds majority. The Assem-
bly, foots up seventy-two Republicans ant
fifty-six Democrats-aR Republican majorit,
OF sixteen. We have special advices from al
most every district. .rts
Later news from Wisconsin says: Return.
from remote towns that have been received
are generally unfavorable to the Republi
cans. 1t will require an official canvass t,
determine the result absolutely. Ludlngton
Republican candidate for Governor,
probably elected by about one thousand ma
jority, but the rest of the Republican tickle
is probably defeated, and the complexion o
the Legislature is in doubt.
