1t is now reported that the conditions
OF the compromise proposed by John
H. Lick to the Academy of Sciences,
whereby an ainicable adj ustment of
the complications arising out OF the
cash bequeathed to them by Jas. Lick
was sought to be furthered, has been
refused by the committee acting for
the Academy, because the demands oil
John were considered too exorbitant in

in the deed, unless some other mode OF
settling the difficulties is suggested.
The smallpox is again on the in
crease. The resident physician at the
Pest-house reports to the chairman OF
the Hospital Committee that during
the past week the epidemic has been
quite extensive and we have nearly as
many bad patients as at any time.
During the week we have received 23,.
discharged Is. c-red, and had 4
deaths. In the hospital there are so
patients.
The Hayes and Wheeler Blues,

Death from Using TX e Charge

Hank Capital.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 81.
Mrs. Anna Baugh, wife OF Theodore
T.. Baugb, residing at No. % South
Park, got up Yesterday ruorning to
light n fire. She used kerosene oil,
but so carelessly that her clothes
caught on fire and in "A her
whole persons was enve'Oped by
flames, which reached her face and
fairly roasted it before she was res
cused. 1t is probable that she il haled
the flames, for though badly burned
her injuries seemed hardly sufficient
10 cause her death, which occurred
last night.
The grand jury was in. paneled to-
day. Judge Wright, in charging the
jury, remarked that the last grand
jury commenced the investigation of
the acts Of the members OF the Board
or Supervisors, but for want
of time the investigation was not
completed. 1t would be their
duty to take up this investigation and
prosecute it to its end. 1t would he
their special duty to inquire whether
the late election was conducted in a
and orderly way. In TIE investi-
it would be their duty to know
no friends or party. and to see that jus
tice is done to all. 1t will be rernem-
bered that The last grand jury ami
inadverted severely on the conduct of
some Of the members Of the Board of
Supervisors, intimating that several
of them were probably candidates tor
San Quentin, on account of their ac-
ton in the matter relating to the let
of contracts, supplies, etc.
1t is reported on good authority that
the capital Of the Bank of Nevada is to
be again increased between the present
and new year. The amount of
increase contemplated will give the
bank a capital of $50, 600, 900.

LEAD.

The recent variations in the Euro
pean situation has greatly agitated the
lead market and spectators in that
metal have been operating in view of
the probabilities Of a great war on the
other side Of the Atlantic, which recent
dispatches indicate is imminent. Th-
interest which the people of this dis
trict have in the advance in the price
Of lead is hardly secondary to the sill
yer quotations. The San Francisco
Stock Report, in an article upon the
subject, says: "Theannual consump-
ton of lead in this country is placed at
$4,000 tons. The production last year
was about $1,000 tons, the balance be-
ing imported. There is a duty upon
this imported lead which amounts to a
bounty of forty dollars per ton on pro-
duction. The largest sources of sur
ply are the mines Of Great Britain and
Spain, which are 10Y producing over
$1,000 tons each annually. The whole
foreign output is estimated by a o
temporary at 25l 900 tons. The yield
O: The mines of the United States has
increased from 1892 tons in 1866 to
the present amount of $4,000 tons III Il
steady progression, while our imports
since the wal have fallen off in an in
verse ratio. Before long, at this rate,
the United States will be able to ex-
port largely, and in case Of any sud-
den drain, as would be occasioned by a
European war, the price would rapid
" advance. The silver.lead mines of
Nevada are constantly increasing in
number and Importance, while in the
central portion of this State new dis
tricts have been recently opened which
promise a further addition to the an
nual supply.
WE trust that this years election
will convince Democrats that the Elec-
t ,ral College ought to be abolished
and that they will help Republicans to
change the law to accomplish such a
result Enterprise.
We have always believed the E,ec-
toral College to be an institution utter
ly a~ntagonistic to the spirit of our
governmental system, and the expert
ence of the late election has more than
confirmed opinion that the cleo !
ton of President and Vice Presi lent
should be left to the popular vote OF
the people. We arc glad that our
is in favor of such Il
change in the law as will accomplish
that result, although we are convinced
that the principal opposition to the
movement will come from the Repub-
lican party.

THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.


Business Enterpftses for Farmers.
1t seems very clear that that there are too
many persons to do the farmers business.
This is disadvantage, because it tends to in
crease the cost of doing this sdrvice. If a
number of farmers, then, can arrange to do
their work through one agent, where formerly
three were employed, the cost should be reduc-
ed in proportion to the expense saved. If there
are two elevators at one railroad depot, where
one would be sufficient, then grain be shipped
at half the cost il only one were employed But
the farmers must be in the position to prevent
the one elevator from raising the charges to
the former rates, which the owner would do if
he had the power The farmers must there
fore control the elevator themselves, employing
the trade to work it.
This they can only do by owning it. To own
their elevator then. is not only legitimate, but
actually necessary for them to do if they pos
business should be managed. They would then
have their grain shipped as cbeaply as nigh
be possible. This is an illustration of what
might be done, and this modification of present
business arrangements could be carried just so
far as the farmers possessed the necessary
business capacity and experience to properly
manage their enterprise, and secure the best
efforts of their servants, but no further
The field for these business enterprises at
present would seem to be limited to those which
do not require a techlcal education for their
conduct and education. For instance, an ele-
vator,a poik-packing establishment, travelling
steam thrasher, a grocery, dry goods or shoe
store, a storage warehouse, a dock and ship
for carrying their goods to foreign countries, or
canal boat for conveying produce to distant
market, would all seem to be within the powers
and cspa oilities of o number of intelligent far
mers; but q railroad, wooden or cotton facto-
ry, a machine factory, and similar mechanical
operations, which require for their successful
working much hardly acquired technical skill
or great business experience, which can only be
prohtably effective when the operator is the
owner of the establishment, would seem to be
outside of the farmers province, and necessa-
rily doomed to failure in his hands. We see no
reason why farmers should not look toward the
chespening of the services of those whom they
employ as their agents for the disposal of their
produce, and employ their spare capital in the
direction pointed out as soon as they have
exhausted their efforts. to make their farms
productive and have acquired the necessary
business habits and experience for eventual
success -Ansericon AgricultUrtst.

POETRY.
A Ballad Of Dreamland'

BY ALGERNoN CHARLES sWINBURNE.
I hid my heart in nest of roses
Out of the SUMS way, hidden apart;
In softer bed than the soft white SHOWS is,
Under the roses hid my heart
Why would 1t sleep not? why should it start,
Wnen never a leaf of the rose-tree stirred?
What made sleep flutter his wings and part?
Only the song of secret bird.
Lie still, said, for the winds wing closes,
AND mild leaves muffle the keen SUMS dart;
Lie stlli: Tor the wind on the warm sea dozes,
ana the wind is unquieter yet than thou art
Doth thought in thee still a thorn's wound
smart?
Does the fang still fret thee of hope deferred?
What bids the lids of thy sleep dspart?
Only the song Of a secret bird.
The green lands name that charm incloses,
1t never was writ in the travellers chart,
And sweet as the fruit on its tree that grows is,
1t never was sold in the merchants mart.
The swallows OF dreams through its dim fields dart
And sleeps are the tunes in its tree-tops heard;
No hounds note wakens the wild wood hart,
Only the song of a secret bird.
ENvoI.
In the world of dreams have chosen my part,
To sleep for a season, and hear no word
Of true loves truth or of light loves art.
Only the song Of secret bird.
