The Utica On. " Observer has this
statement: ''Stories of danger to in
fants from cats attempting to suck their
breath have been frequently narrated,
bat similar attempts of the animal in re-
gard to grown persons are not so com
mon. An instance occurred in the city
several days ago, however, which should
ct least warn people to keep cats out OF
their sleeping apartments. A young
gentleman was awakened by slight
pain to find the huge tom cat of the
family with his paws about his neck and
endeavoring to get his mouth open.
The cat was working Oh his chin, and
had partly succeeded in opening his
mouth when the movement awakened
him. He tried to push the cat off, but
could not get it away until he seized it
violently about the neck, choking the
animal until it released its hold, and
then throwing it off. The cat has been
excluded from the sleeping apartments
OF that family since the young gentle
mans at least uncomfortable expert

THE NEW MORMON EXODUS.

San Francisco Chronicles: It is 1umor-
ed that Brigham Young, finding him.
self sore pressed by Gentle immigra-
ton and daily more and more hampered
by Federal legislation and Federal
Courts, has been casting about for a
new Canaan, land of better promise,
to which he and the prosecuted Saints
can emigrate, where the wicked shall
cease from troubling and the weary
polygamists of Great Salt Lake may find
rest for their souls. According to re-
port New Mexico has been fixed upon as
the place OF refuge from Gentle per-
secution. Immense Spanish grants,
covering great portion of the Territory,
are to be purchased and TO be Immediate
~ occupied by great emigration from
Utah, sufficient in numerical force to
vote New Mexico into the Union as a
sovereign State, O. which Brigham will
be virtually the absolute ruler under the
prevailing doctrines and theories in re-
gard to State rights. Whether there is
any solid foundation for the rumor or
not, the alleged project is a bold and
comprehensive one. If the Mormons
can carry out the project of getting pos
session of the chief part of the Territory
by purchasing Spanish grants, they will
be able TO keep out the Gentiles by re-
fusing to seal them lands, and by other
wise exercising their power as owners of
the soil

A GEORGIA PHENoMENoS.-On of the
wonderful phenomena of the country,
and of which very little is known even
to those who have spent their lives al
most within its very shadow, is Rich
Hill, located in Crawford County, about
twelve miles from this place, Mr.. Gray
Andrews, one of the oldest settlers of
the country, gave Us some interesting
information which we would like to give
our readers had we the time to spare.
The hill abounds in specimens of pure
limestone rocks, tusks and limb bones
ofmonster wild animals Ike the mastodon
together with the remains of extinct gen.
eral and species of smaller quadrupeds !;
shells and other genealogical curl osities
of the great deep. consisting of petrifed
fish bones, mollusoa, etc.

A NEW Use FOR PHoTOGRAPHY.-Dr.
Vogel, of Berlin, gives an account of a
curious novelty devised by a Paris
physician, which may ultimately res1llt
III an altogether new and useful applica-
ton of photography. 1t consists of a
fame burning at an opening made in
the head of a drum Of some very elastic
membrane. Any noise, as by speaking,
singing, etc, sets the membrane in vibra-
ton, which vibration is communicated
to the flame. II now rotating mirror
is placed behind the fame, and revolved
at the proper rate Of spead, succession
of intricate figures is thrown upon the
wall or a screen, which figures vary ac-
cording to the sounds emitted. It has
been suggested that by employing a
fame of high chemical intensity, the
figures produced by it in the mirror
might be photographically reproduced
upon properly prepared sensitive sur
face passed before the mirror at the
proper rate of speed. Carrying the idea
little further-that is to say, should it
be possible to interpret the images thus
continuously productive will then be
able to take down speeches, addresses,
ETC., photographically, instead of re-
porting them stenographically, as is
now the custom. -EDIToE's SCIENTIFIC

TRUTH.

Truth is a jewel, the possession OF
which is no small addition to ones VIZ
tues, and is of itself substantial basis
for a character calculated to gain and
merit respectful attention and adm1ra-
ton. II we hear such remarks as these
of stranger: 'Well, if he-or she, as
the case may be-says so, it must be
SO" or, "you may depend upon what
he says" we are Immediately prepos
sessed in their favor, although perchance
unconsciousiy. Reports coming from
persons of undoubted veracity, which
from others would seem preposterous,
and unworthy of the slightest credence,
are accepted as undisputable facts,
while from others, given to a habit OF
exaggeration or false speaking, the most
plausible tale is received with an omin-
Gus shake Of the head, and the thought
that 1t may, or may not be so. Bow
essential, then, that in childhood this
principle, be firmly insisted upon, by
those who have under their care the ex
panding intellects which are being fash
toned into beautiful or dwarfed and
unseemly growth. What may seem but
a slight deviation from the truth, by
child, and excused by the parents, may
chill the kindly feelings of some friend,
and long years after be remembered to
to the disadvantage of the youth. But
may we not trace the origin of much of
the hypocrisy and false speaking of
children, to that which their parents
have first practiced upon them? The
habit Of frightening child into good
behavior by some unmeaning threat,
rashly made promises, in short, the
thousand ways by which INSCRIPTIONS,
or thoughtless people trespass upon a
child's right to be honestly dealt with,
are disclosed in time to the object of
them, and it is not strrnge II a reaction
ensues, and the deceivers become the
deceived. What sad moment that
must be for father or mother, when
compelled to admit: 81 can not trust
my child's word any MORE especially
If conscience whispers: ''Your are but
reaping what you have sowed, this is
but the legitimate fruit Of your own
yayering and misdoing"

feel unusually sad to-day,
For 1t reminds me Of year ago,
When, in the mining districts, far away,
helped to dig the grave Of one laid low
In early manhood-youth's expectant prime,
Whtn hope filings roses in the path Of time.
The night he died comes saddeningly back;
stand once more beside his dying bed:
l see him stretched on pains relentless rack,
And hear anew the parting words he said.
Alas II was melancholy sight
The feeble taper, burning in the tent
Revealing, by its dim uncertain light,
His wasted form with suffering almost spent.
One other friend and alone were there
To watch his struggles with the monster, death,
To wait on his expiring wants with care,
And linger fondly Ger his latest breath.
a o. take me homer he murnured as in sleep;
o take me home across the restless deep;
am widowed mothers only child !"
And here he tossed his hand with gesture Wild
" She waits for me beside the cottage door
She wonders why have not come before"
But soon these sad, delirious thoughts were gone,
silence settled on the lips so wan;
glaze stole Ger the fixed and azure eye,
That told Of visions far beyond the sky;
The clasping hand relaxed that held my own
Then followed a few gasps-a stihed moan,
We pressed his bosom with an icy thrill
The bounding pulses and the heart were STILL
That night-long, silent watch beside the dead.
How well recoilect the gloomy seenei
That manly form, now shorn OF all its strength,
And lying rigid at its fullest length.
The face like marble, but the look serene;
No mark Of sorrow, suffering, or care,
To mar the icy features, lingering there.
Uncofined, and without shr0ud, he lay,
Yet not less honored in our heart of hearts;
Nor will he be less honored In that day
When from their graves, each moldered relit
starts.
We lald him in his silent, narrow cell,
We heaped the soft turf on his pulseless breast,
While bitter parting tears like rain-drops fell
Upon his lonely, humble place of rest.
No marble monument there lifts its crest,
No proud memento Of his name to tell,
In chiseled words, rhetorically drest.
The many virtues that we loved so we'll
But when each spring returns, welcome guest,
She decks with flowers that grave within the dell
And rs the sun sinks nightly in the west
That lowly spot receives his last farewell

Golden Words.
Prejudice is the child of ignorance.

Prejudice is the child of ignorance.
When clouds are seen, wise men put on
their cloaks.
No man ever lost his honor except he
who had it not.
Prejudice squints when it looks, and
lies when it talks.
Who brayely dares must sometimes
risk fall.
Doctrine is nothing but the skin of
truth set up and stuffed.
Virtue has many preachers, but few
martyrs.
Many delight more in giving of pres
ents than in paying their debts.
Men who fish for compliments don't
care how dirty the water is.
Show may be easily purchased but
happiness is homemade article.
Troubles are like dogs; the smaller
they are the more they annoy you.
He who stumbles twice over the same
stone deserves to break his bones.
An angry man opens his mouth and
shuts up his eyes.
It's right to be contented with what
we have, but never with what we are.
Life is like wine; he who would drink
it pure must not drain it to the dregs.
Every one complains of the badness oi
his memory, but nobody Of his judg
ment.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-03-16
Women as Writers.

New York correspondence of the Hart
ford Times The advance of women IN
literature is one of the remarkable facts
of the age. Female story writers are now
much more in demand than the other
sex, and in this field of industry, at least,
women have no reason to complain that
they are not as well paid as men. Those
who write for the weeklies and maya
zines receive the same compensation, In
proportion to the amount of work done,
that is given to male writers. The Har-
pers, Appletons, ScribDer, and other
large concerns make no distinction in
this respect, the only point considered
being the actual value of the sketch or
story offered. Female writers are stronger
than the opposite sex in working up
sentiment and detail, and this gives
them decided advantage in popular
fiction. Men excel in the arrangement
of plot, but, when it comes to elabora-
tion, they can not compete with the
literary sisterhood. This remark is not
intended to go beyond the range of
American writers of the present time.
Such authors as Scott, Dickens, Bulwer,
Thackeray, Cooper and Irving are, of
course, not included in any comparison
on the subject. But magazine editors,
who may be considered good authority,
tell me that women are now read more
extensively than men, and account for
this on the ground just mentioned-their
superior tact in working up interest by
presenting every detail and playing
cleverly on all the chords of sentiment.
Outside of fiction women do not make
much progress, but within that charmed
circle they now have matters pretty
much to themselves. If the female ele-
ment were eliminated from the author
ship of light literature in the United
States, what remained would probably
not be more than one-third of the
whole.
