WHAT CAN BE PROVED IN LESS THAN
A WEEK.


We trust our delegation in Congress
will exert their combined influence TO
haye thorough investigation of the
Federal officers in this city. What we
want more than anything else just
now is Congressional committee to
investigate the New Orleans Custom
House to let in little light into the
the dark recesses o: that den of thieves.
We confidently assert that such
committee will find in S. B. Packard,
James F. Casey, and J. P. Beckwith
three as unmitigated scoundrels as
Babcock. Belknap and Robeson.
There has been just as much stealing
in cotton and sugar as there has been
in whiskey, aye, and more too, and if
inquiry is pushed into these, there
will be shaking among the Custom
House officials named above. Then
the prostitution of their Offices by the
Marshal and District Attorney for
party purposes: villainous jobs put up
by them against the whites in the par
ishes, in order TO use troops against
them; the compromising with the
thief e. w. Lowell manufacturing of
false affidavits, and these are not one
half of what we guarantee will be
proved in less than a week against
these worthies here.-N. q. Democrat

A CALIFORNIA SOAP MINE.


There is a rock-soap mine in the
lower mountains Or foot hills of the
Coast Range, in Ventura County, five
miles from the city of the same name.
1t was discovered by A F. Hubbard,
while prospecting for coal. He acci-
dentally dislodged some fragments
that fell into the water and dissolved.
1t being new experience to see a
rock dissolve, he gave it his attention,
found it soapy, took it home to exper-
iment with, aud soon learned its vir-
tues yet, strange to tell, his family
used it for nearly year before it was
given to the public. The mine is ac-
cessible only through a difficult canon
The surrounding formation resem-
bles chalk or lime. AT the southern
extremity of the canon is an extensive
deposit, veined, marbied and parti-
colored, resembling CASTLE soap. The
ledge at its opening is fifteen or twen-
ty feet wide, crops out for 1000 feet,
with an unknown depth. The lode is
we'll defined with wall rocks of hard
slate stone, and has in common with
the sandstone stratas about it, been
thrown up from the depths and turned
completely on edge. In its vicinity is
a mountain OF gypsum, also turned up
on edge.-iSan BenreaturO (Cdl.) Re-
porter.

A LAWSUIT now in progress before
Baltimore Court presents some lu-
dicrous features which will serve as q
warning 10 that large class of persons
who are in the habit of lndulging in
slang. Some time ago Mrs. Thos.
Wilcox and her sister, Miss Cochran,
were out promenading, when they
met Mrs. Frances Douglas. The head
of the latter was decked with q love
of bonnet or, more properly speak
ing, hat. The hat, being rather con-
spicuous, by reason of its decorations.
attracted the eye of Mrs. Wilcox and
her sister, one of whom exclaimed,
"Oh, shoot that hat!" Mrs. Douglas be-
came indignant,and the result was she
had the other two ladies arrested for
insulting her. They were taken be-
fore Magistrate and bound over to
keep the peace. Mrs. Wilcox then
had Mrs. Douglas arrested on the
charge of perjury, but at the hearing
Mrs. Douglas was acquitted. Mrs.
Douglas then brought suit against
Mrs. Wilcox for malicious prosecu-
ton, laying damages at $4,000. Mrs.
Douglas may yet recover enough to
buy another bonnet.

SYMPTOMS.

When a woman begins to drink her
tea with sugar-that's a symptom.
When a woman gives sigh on
hearing OF wedding--that's symp-
tom.
When woman begins to say that
she's refused many an offer-that's a
symptom.
When woman begins to talk about
rheumatism in her knees and elbows
that's a symptom.
When n woman begins to find fault
with her looking glass, and says it
does not show the features right
that's a symptom.
When woman begins talking about
cold drafts, and stops up all the Grey
ices of the doors aud windows-that's
symptom.

The centuries fall like grains of sand,
We meet O-day united, ice,
And loyal to our land and Thee,
To thank Thee for the era done,
And trust Thee for the opening one.
Here where of old, by Thy design,
The fathers spake tnat word of Thine
Whose echo is the glad refrain
OF rendcd bolt and falling chain,
To grace our festal time from all
The zones of earth our guests we call.
BE with us while the New World grcets
The Old World thronging all its streets.
Unveiling all the triumphs won
BY art or toll beneath the sun;
And unto common good ordain
The rivalship of hand and brain.
Thou who hast here in concord furled
The war fiags of Il gathered world,
Beneath our western skies fulfil
The Orient'S mission of good WILL
And. freighted with Loves golden fleece,
Sesai back the Argonauts of peace.
For art and labor met in truce,
For beauty made the bride of use,.
We thank Thee, while w,tlal we crave

The honor prsof 60 place or gold.
The manhood never bought or sold.

In peace secure, in Justice strong;
Around our gift of freedom draw

And. cast in some ,liviner mould,
Let the new cycle shame the old.

Greek slaves in an Elizabethan ruff.
How they waltz, those artful cocottes !!
They lie i'm the arms Of him who is
their support, and suffer themselves to
be borne hither and thither. in kind
Of passionate revery. The tips Of their
toes twinkle along the floor and when
at last the music has walled itself to
death, they swOom in the crowd that
closes around them, and lie for just
one moment at the mercy of the vul-
garest and most daring eyes,
AS most of our fashions come from
Paris, it will not he long until we hear
of masked balls in this country. have
heard of individual instances at balls
here almost as bad as these maskers.
How to get the sport and recreation
out of dancing, without getting any of
the evil effects SO intimately entwined
with it, is the question that puzzles me
to solve.,
Rev. Mr.. Bushnell in a sermon on
this and kindred subjects, says that
christians do not need recreations of
this kind. Their minds should be
filed with something better and high.
er, SO they would not relish sports of
this kind. Mr.. Van Cott advised his
wife, when he was just leaving this
world. never to go back into fashiona-
BILE society. If "Layman" would re-
solve upon that for himself and chill
dren it would be much safer that to
try to guard a worldly practice from
evil influence. The best way to guard
against the evil consequences con-
nected with it, is to avoid the practice
altogether. 1t is easier never to learn
than to leave off after you have COM
menced. This was the correct theory
Of John Wesley. He would not allow
the children in his orphan schools to
be taught dancing in the fashionable
days of one hundred years ago

DEAD BODY FoUND.-ssProspect-
ing BILL" who has just returned
from one of his bonanza seeking
tramps, informed us a short time ago
that the body of man was found in
the range of mountains near Mineral
Valley. From appearances death
must have occurred some time ago.
probably last winter, as the coyotes
had scattered the remains, one leg
and arm being some distance from
the trunk. Bill is of the opinion
that it is the body of a man who left
this place just before the first heavy
fall of snow last winter. Nothing
was found to indicate who he was or
where from.

PERFEC TIoN.- Nothing is more
difficult to attain than even a COM
parative degree of perfection. In
professions and scholastic attain
ments proficiency may be acquired
by years of self. denial and hard
study, but in some branches of trade
a fine taste, a keen sense of the beau
ties as presented to the eye or sug
sested to the fancy, are needed. If
anyone will visit the magnificent
dry goods establishment of A. Vaen-
berg, No. 80 South c street, they will
observe by his elegant stock of
goods that they have been selected
by one who thoroughly understands
his business.

FRYER's ARGUNENT.-In deScrib-
ing the roasting process to CORE
spondcnt Of The Sacramento Record
Union, Mr.. Fryer says: "All base
metals are practically destructible
by heat and can be driven away from,
the precious metals provided you
have heat enough. 1t silver will not
dissolve in nitric acid it is because
you have no: acid enough. If gold
will not dissolve in aqua rcga it is
because You do not have aqua rega
enough; and on exactly the same
principle if base metals will not sue.
cumh to heat it is simply because
YOU do not have heat enongh.'
