I'm Paris all stray dogs are taken to
the Prefecture of Police, where they are
examined and divided into lots according
to their value. Those of high breed are
we'll cared for, as it is known that the
owners will soon appear and pay hand
somely for their board and lodging. Those
of good breed but less valuable, are al
so treated handsomely, as at the sale,
which takes place weekly, they will fetch
a good price; but the worthless ours,
which constitute the largest portion, are
taken to the Fourriere, or municipal
pound, where they are left without any
food for two days, and are then, if un-
claimed, or if they do not die in the mean
time of hunger, hung up by hooks fast
ened in their throats.

Bicycle VS.. Horses.

A ten mile race, between a fast horse
named Happy Jack and vel0cipede rider
named Stanton, recently took place at
Lille Bridge, England, for $3.50. For
the first three miles the horse kept level
with the bicyclist. The ground was rather
sticky--owing to late rains-lor both, and
Stanton seemed laboring, but this is his
peculiar way of riding. Stanton was the
fayorite at as much as three to one, for the
start allowed him was generally considered
too much. For three miles the horse went
easily; where he lost at the corners he made
up in the straight. This style he kept up
until the sixth mile, when his stride be-
gan TO falter, not being ridden so well as
on the last occasion, combined with the
effect of the extra weight he was carry
ing. Stanton from this point gradually
went ahead, and in the next mile he had
gained fifty yards. The horse was now
beaten, and after going another lap was
pulled up at eight miles. Stanton went
on and finished the distance, ten miles
less 164 yards, in thirly-four minutes and
thirty-four seconds, being at n average
velocity Of nearly eighteen miles an hour
He rode fifty ght inch machine, weigh
ing forty pounds, lie seemed 10 have d
good deal more in him had it been re-
quired. .-ScieRtifc american.

The Cathedral at UpsaIa, in Sweden

THE cathedral occupies the site of al
old heather temple, and ancient traditions
speak OF lis immense size and enormous
wealth. Behind the altar at the end of
the church, which is $40 feet in length, is
a chapel called the Gustavian Chapel,
principally sight-worthy tor its central
monument in marble. This consists of a
catafalque six or eight feet high, the four
corners surmounted by high obelisks. On
this catafalque rest three marble statues OF
life size, representing Gustavus l. and
two of his wives. His ashes with those OF
his three wives mOulder in the vault di-
rectly beneath The walls of this chapel
are covered between the windows of
painted glass with a series of seven fres-
Goes, painted between forty and fifty years
ago and representing important events in
the life of Gustavus.
Leaving the Gustavian Chapel the Wis
itor is shown the treasures of the cathe-
dral, among which is an ancient image of
the heathen god Thor. There are also
several golden crowns belonging to past
kings, for this cathedral was long the
coronation place of Swedish sovereigns.
Here too, is a golden chalice, with other
valuable things brought from Prague dur
ing the Thirty Years War. AT the side
of the altar is silver casket or shrine
plated with gold; this is three or four feet
long, and is said to contain the bones OF
ST. Eric, the patron saint of Stockholm,
who died in the year l160. Itwas hewho
put an end to the continual wars which
had ragged between the wOrshipers OF
Odln and the Christians from the time oi
the first introduction of Christianity into
Sweden about the year 1000. There are
many tombs and mural monuments, some
of which are 500 years old. But no one
will forget to look for the name of Lin
n9us, who lies buried here. A tablet in
the form of an obelisk projects from q
side wall near the end opposite the altar
and bears the name and medallion por
trait of Linn9us. A photographer was
taking picture of it during our visit

In6ation Nonsense.

KELLEY absurdly claims that all the
evidences Of unpaid, floating debt, owed
blythe United States at the close of the
waR, were just sa much money in circula-
ton, and that when Secretary McCulloch
negotiated his final loan and paid them
oil, the act brought ruin on the country.
AS if the act ofthc Government in settling
up its accounts and paying OIL what il
owed at the end of a costly war, was vic
ious, unprincipled and ruinous. Yet that
is Just what Kelley says, and ii is the basis
OF his entire wall and complaint over the
currency. It is this reduction of the Gov
ernments obligations, he says, that causes
our ruin. Very likely he will not like
the looks of his position put in this
naked form. We should not think he
would. But that is his fault, not ours.
We merely hold the mirror up TO Kelley.
We deny that the act had any such et-
feet as he charges. We deny that the pay
ing OIL of the certificates Of Indebtedness
or the compound interest notes, or any
other form of debt owed at the close of the
war, was either ruinous or Injurious; and
we sustain the denial by pointing 10 the
fact that the Government payments
of 1S65-GG-G7 and 'GS produced no panic
and no collapse. The business OF the
country was, as everybody knows, undis-
turDed by those payments, and went on
day by day. growing and expanding all
throug h elose years; and so on continuously
through 1S69-f0-71-72 and up to the au-
tumn of 1873; when the bubble burst from
over expansion. - Ga
We do not need any profound and oc-
cult theory evolved from anybody's mud
dy inner Consciousness, such as Kelley
offers, 20 explain why that bubble burst.
We had gone beyond our means. We
had gone aheadrOl the times in particular
branches Of industry. We had built TOO
many railroads, too many iron mills, too
many cotton factories. We were produe-
ing certain things beyond our power Of
purchase and consumption. Behold the
enormous amount of money stacked in
unproductive and non paying railroad
property to-d day. Look at Fall Rivers
cotton mills, doubled up until millions
on millions have been sunk, and other
millions of former investment rendered
temporarily valueless. Is there any
doubt about the cause of the collapseg

George Alfred Townsend, over the
signature of "GATH," under date October
3Oth in the Philadelphia Times, writing
from New York says: "If l were not to
admit that there seems imminent
prospect of Mr.. Tilden's election, l
should show an insensibility to the
fears everywhere around me-" Townsend
is black Republican and could ohy
have been induced to say what he writes
by being convinced that ali hope forth
election of the Republican candidates
had disappeared. He says further: 81
hear that Robson has expressed his
despair of New Jersey. 1 know that the
Republican leaders expect nothing from
Came cticut. and think the panic that
has started 1t comes from the knowledge
of an unfavorable inquest or canvass of
New York"
Decentralization seems to have come
over the Radical party in Ohio as well as
New York. And all that Grant is doing
South seems to work the partys injury
in the North. Don Cameron's acts will
certainty prove boomerang, which that
audacious scamp may yet feel the weight
of personally as well as politically.

Proof of ChassberIafs's Lies.

A letter from Senator Randolph, of
New Jersey, to the New York World,
dated Columbia, S. c., Oct. 20, and pub
lished in that paper of the 30th, furnishes
additional evidence of the atrocity of all
the circumstances connected with the
plot to stife liberty and prevent reform
in South Carolina. Though such evil
dence was hardly needed, so well known
are the methods of the carpet-baggers and
their allies at Washington, it is none the
less valuable and timely from its clear
ness and copiousness. There is testi-
mony upon testimony from sources that
Republicans cannot impeach, all going
to show how utterly false were the state
ments of Chamberlain on which Grant
made haste to pour troops into the pros
tate State. Above all there is graphic
statement of the machinery by which
Chamberlain and his negro accomplice.
intend to count themselves nif they are
voted out. Such an exposure of the out
come of a century of government at tn,
very time that we have hidden the worl,
to our gates to see our progress, mus
give pause and bring burning blush t,
the cheek of any American not Cham
berlain or partisan of Chamberlain.
