A Land Of Fruit and Flowers.

Col Forney writing from Cannes, in
France, says: When tell you that stood
literally among acres of orange trees bend
ing under the weight Of their golden fruit,
and ! saw literally miles of olive trees, the
circumference of the trunks of some being
eleven feet down to the merest twigs, you
will, perhaps, have some idea not simply of
the extent of this commerce, but of the as
tonishing fertility of the soil These or.
ange and olive trees do not ornament and
crowd the hills alone, bnt grow in strength
and profusion down to the very seacoast.
You know how the storms of the ocean cut
down and annihilate vegetation on our
north Atlantic coast, and tolerate only the
harder cereals and fruits, but here in the
south of Frauce, especially in this semi
circle, the bay of Napoule, the soft breezes
of the Mediterranean welcome and woo the
most precious and valuable flowers-del
icate vines, The Incompatible olive, the fig,
the orange, the lemon, the date, etc.
Hardly an inch of ground with southern
exposure Is left untitled on the steepest de-
clivities. Steps are cut, ridge after ridge.
the outer surface walled and the level
earth planted with olive and orange trees,
presenting spectacle of unusual brilliancy
and proving the industry of the people I'M
der the inspiration Of sure profit paid
back to them by generous Nature. l wish
| were botanist enough to describe in de-
tail the catalogue of plants and flowers that
vary this exquisite district. The adjacent
mountains, and especially the villas and
palaces near the town, abound in sea pines
and thickcts of rock roses and lentisens,
laurustines, arbutus, mushrooms and ar
borescent heaths. The heaths attain the
height of six or ten feet, and flower in
March; the laurustines in February and
March the rock roses in March April and
May; the mushrooms in May ard June |;
but to-day, the 1st of February, apart from
the golden glow of the oranges, the air was
filled with the perfume of roses, primroses.
violets and daisies. There are orchards of
pear and cherry, forests of walnut trees,
and tull-grown chestnuts, with luscious
strawberries at their feet. The olives and
pomegranates grow without cultivation,
and the sandy shore nourishes the superb
umbrella pine, often reproduced by paint
ers in their pictures of Roman subjects. 1t
is not surprising then that sea so tranquil
and shore so fruitful should attract to il
the men of wealth and science from all
parts of the Old World. The nobleman
builds his villa among the pines of Cannes,
and maintains his yacht in the ocean at the
foot of his gar len.

OLD TIMES.
re's beautiful song on the slumberous

There's beautiful song on the slumberous
air
That drifts through the valley of dreams;
1t comes from CLINE where the roses were,
And tuneful heart, and bright brown hair
That waved in the morning beams.
Soft eyes of azure and eyes of brown.
And snow-white foreheads are there,
A glimmering cross and glittering crown,
A thorny bed and q couch of down,
Lost hopes and leaflets of prayer.
a rosy leaf in a dimpled hand,
A ring and plighted vow;
Three broken rings on broken hand,
tiny track on q snow-white sand,
A tear and snless brow.
There's tincture of grief in the beautiful
song
That sobs on the Summer air,
And loneliness felt In the festive throng
Sinks down in the soul as 1t trembles along
From cline where the roses are
We heard 1t first at the dawn of day,
And it mingles with matinc chimes;
But years have distanced the beautiful lay,
And its melody loweth away,
And we call it now Golden Times"

Fifteen Dollars taken from Everybody.

Somebody has figured out the inter-
esting fact that the total amount of
State, county, city and town taxes
collected in the United States in 1870
was $3.50, ,59l 900, which was about 81
head for the entire population. The
total amount of these taxes collected
in 1860 was $4, 1885, 900, which was about
So head for the entire population. 1t
cost, therefore, more than twice as
much to take care of man in his
State, county and municipal relations
in 1870 as it did ten years before. This
does not include the Federal taxation.
The net ordinary expenditures of the
Federal Government in 1870 We're
$164, ,421, 600, which was $4 30 a head
for the entire population. In 1860 they
were $60,000,000, which was 81 94 a
head. In 1850 they were S37, l65, 900,
which was 81 go head. i 1910 they
were $24, $4,000, which was 81 40 a
head. 1t will be seen that while there
was an increase of 81 cents in the per
capita cost of Government from 1910 to
1860, there was ancrease of So So in the
rate in the last decade--the rate being
more than doubled. In the estimate
we do not include the annual interest
ON the debt; this, added to the net
ordinary expenditures for 1870, would
make the per capita cost about $S.

The indian situation.
IRON The New York Graphic.

From the Neio York Grdphic.)
The conference between the In
dams and the Authorities in Wash
ington brings out quite clearly the
stubborn facts Of the situation. Pre-
sident Grant showed admirable good
sense in his plain talk with the dele
CATION. He pushed aside all their
pretensions and refused to listen to
their gibberish. The government
would observe its treaties to the
letter. 1t was no longer bound to
feed the Indians in the Black Hills,
and 1t was quite impossible for them
10 get a living there without work.
If they chose to emigrate they should
have a better territory, in a milder
undisturbed. But it is quite impos-
sible to prevent goldseekers from
penetrating the Black Hills, and the
constant collisions OF the Indians and
the whites would invariably result in
bloodshed ard the expulsion of the
Indians. Still they must choose for
themselves. This puts the whole
matter in n nutshell. The Indians
cannot longer shirk the duties and
responsibilities of human beings.
They must decide what to do, and
abide by their choice. The idea that
the government is going to carry the
Indians, like so many big bronze
babies, IN its arms, and feed and
ciothe them, and humor all their
whims, and keep them well supplied
with all sorts of toys, from glass beads
to Sharpe's rifles, is too ridiculous to
be tolerated. The truth is, the sem
timental view of the Indians has
played itself out. They have devel-
oped no capacities for civilization, no
aptitudes for industry, no ambition
for progress-nothing but laziness
and an enormous ability to be sup
ported by the government, and an
overmastering appetite for all the
vices of frontier life. The time has
come to look the facts squarely in the
face. The laws which govern popu-
lations are terribly stern and mex
orabIe In their operations. The
tittest survive. The earth is for those
who have the industry, the skill, the
pluck and hardihood to possess it.
All attempts to preserve a race of
idlers and loungers and thieves, strut
ting about with feathers in their hair
and mocasins on their feet, insisting
that land enough shall be secured to
each one of them to support forty
whites, and that they shall be pro-
tected from imposition while COM
hitting all sorts Of 1epredotions, are
too preposterous To be seriously en-
%tertained for a moment. The philan-
throphy is all on one side. There is
no humanity in trying to perpetuate
a race that will not civilize itself and
cannot be civilized. 1t stands in the
way Of human progress. 1t eats the
substance that belongs to nobler peo-
pie. 1t is Il drain on the productive
capacities of the earth, and a burden
that no government is bound to carry.
The sooner the Indians are made TO
feel this fact, and compelled to choose
whether they will go TO work like
other men or starve, the better for
themselves and everybody.
