People of small means do not find It easy
to believe that the power Of money Is not
omnipotent. The greatest things which
have been done for the world have not been
accomplished by rich men, Or by subscnp-
ton lists, but by men generally Of small
pecuniary means The greatest thinkers,
discoverers. inventors and artists have been
men Of moderate wealth, many Of them little
raised above the condition of laborers, tn
point Of worldly circumstances. And it will
always be so. Riches are oftener an i'm
pediment than stimulus to action; and in
many cases they are quiteas much a mister.
tune as blessing. The youth who inherits
wealth is apt to have life made too easy for
him, and he soon grows sated with 1t, be-
cause he has nothing left to desire..s Having
no special object to struggle for, he finds
time hangs heavy on his hands, remains
morally and mentally asleep; and his
position in society is often no higher

IGNORANCE NOT BLISS.
[CoNT1NUEr.,,

The following anecdote shows how dan
gerous it is to object to anything with
which we are not familiar: A young lady
of a certain city recently made herself the
victim of ridiculous mistake. A hand
some and wealthy gentleman, whose &C.
quaintance she had just formed, invited her
to attend dress party in his company.
She accepted, and arrayed herself for the
event with unusual care. To her surprise
and modification he appeared, to escort her
to the party, attired in white linen coat.
She invited him to be seated, and then
begged to be excused for few moments. To
her mother she stated the fact that she
would be ashamed to go with him if he
wore "that coat" It was finally decided
that she should ask the gentleman to pass
the evening at the house. Ashamed, but
determined, she told him that she did not
believe that any Of the gentlemen would
wear linen coats at the party, and that they
had better not go; delightful evening
could be passed at home, etc. The gentle
man took the matter good-naturedly and
remarked: "Why, this is only my duster. I"
The lady recovered from her modification
sufficiently to attend the party.

prepossessing face; high heek-bones, a
nose which resembled a parrots beak, and
small, peculiar eyes, with but little ex-
preston in them, save that but OF lowest
cunning, were not calculated to make a
yery agreeable impression on any beholder.
She was about thirty-hve years OF age, and
unmarried-which latter fact was not at all
to be wondered at,
She had never possessed even an admirer,
and that again was not surprising, except,
of course, to herself.
Laura Hutchinson was not without one
great passion, an inordinate love Of money,
an unbounded avarice, whose qualification
was to be purchased by the destruction OF
more than one victim-yes, there was to be
a terrible immolation to the golden idol
that Laura Hutchinson worshipped.
But, after all, and being what she was,
still was Laura Hutchinson fully worthy
Of her mistress.
When this delectable waiting-maid had
rushed so unceremoniously into the pres
ence of Sir Jonas Rathborne, he had
turned towards her full Of rage and dignity,
intending to annihilate the persumptuous
woman with one indignant look; but sur
prise was all his eyes expressed as they
fixed themselves on Laura Hutchinson s
face, so wild and scared the aspect it pre-
sented.
Rosalie gazed too on this woman, who
stood gesticulating and wringing her hands,
and believed that the evil, which through
the past night her heart had forboded, was
now about to fall on her; and but too
cruelty were Rosalie's forebodings about to
be fulfilled.
Mistress Camelford was the FIRST to ques-
Jion her waiting-maid.
"For heavens sake. Laura" she said,
why do you look 80 scared-surely some
thing terrible must have happened that
you should be so pale and terror-stricken ?"

meued Laura; "yQudsr-lsst pj2ht-vthere !"

A Beautiful Gold Bullion Button.

We have become so accustomed to
the sight of Black Hills gold in large
quantity that we 10 longer express sur
prise over new arrivals thereof, but
merely glance at it, ascertain all that is
necessary for itemizlng purposes, and
retire to the dim recesses of our sane
tum, there to mediate upon bold
schemes of robbing banks and stage
coaches. But we digress.
Stebbins, Post & Co. received by yes
terday's Black Hills coach a beautiful
gold bullion button from Messrs. Mich
OILS & Haven, owners of the Father de
Smet mine and mill at Golden Gate,
near Deadwood. The button in ques-
ton weighs one hundred and fifty-six
ounces, and is valued at three thou
sand dollars. 1t is the product of the
first run through the new mill just
erected and put in operation by Nichols
& Haven.
The button will be shipped to New
York tomorrow, together with two or
three thousand dollars worth of Dead
wood dust purchased by the banking
house under mention. Ladies and 9TH
ers desiring to gaze upon the treasure
should call at the bank to-day.

SPECIAL NOTICES..

sehenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed
Tonic,
AND MANDRAKE Pills. These deser-
vedly celebrated and popular medicines
have effected a revolution in the heal
ing ant, and proved the fallacy of sew
eral maxinis which have for many years
INSTRUCTED the progress of medical
science. The false supposition that
Consumption is incurable" deferred
physicians from attempting to find
remedies for that disease, and patients
afflicted with it reconciled themselves
to death without making an effort to
escape from a doom which they suppos-
ed to be unavoidable. 1t is now proved,
however, that Consumption c1n be cured,
and that it has been cured in a very
great many cases (some of them appar
emily desperate ones) by Schenck's Pull
monte Syrup alone; and in other cases
by the same medicine in connection
with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills, one or both, according
to the requirements of the case.
DR.. Schenck himself, who enjoyed un-
interrupted good health for more than
forty years, was supposed at n time
to be at the very gate of death, his ply
sicians having pronounced his case
hopeless, and abandoned him to his fate.
He was cured by the aforesaid medi-
cines, and, since his recovery, many
thousand similarly affected have used
DIR. Schenck's preparations with the
same remarkable success.
Full directions accompany each, max
ing it not absolutely necessary to per-
sonally see DIR. Schenck unless patients
wish their lungs examined, and for this
purpose he is professionally at his prin-
cipal office, corner Sixth and Arch sts.,
Philadelphia, every Monday, where all
letters for advice must be addressed.
Schenck's medicines are sold by all

We CTubC CuHG Will DUOH
ratify the treaty made last summer
with the Sioux for the cession Of the
Black Hills country; for in that case
the Postoffice Department will order
regular mail service via Cheyenne
and Fort Laramie to the miners in the
Black Hills. Under the present ar
rangements the people in the Black
Hills suffer many inconvenience in
much delay in the transmission of their
mail matter. 1t has been charged re-
peatedly that letters and papers ordered
by the senders to go via Cheyenne are
thrown off at small way station east
of Cheyenne and given to irresponsible
parties to carry to Red Cloud Agency
and eventually to the mining settle
ments in the Black Hills. Sometimes
this mail matter reaches its destination,
but moro frequently it does not, and
nobody knows what becomes of it.
We have inquired into this matter
and obtained a copy of the order which
governs the railway postal clerks in this
particular, and which was issued by
Captain Vandervoort, chief head clerk
of the Railway Mail Service. The Or
der reads as follows: fs
OFFICE OF THE CHIEF HEAD CLERK
RAILWAY MAIL SERVICE,
OMAHA, Neb., Sept. II, 1876.
Clerks Omaha and Ogden r.. p. o:
. nr-- --. III ~x-.l,
for Spotted Tail and Red Cloud Agen-
cies, Camp Sheridan, Camp Robinson,
custer City, Deadwood and all points
in the Black Hills to Sidney, Neb., &c
cept urhat is marked ria Cheyenne, to
, Cheyenne, Wyo. Ter. Each place made
up direct.
If this order is carried out, and we
have the assurance of Capt. Wander
WORT and the clerks of the railway
p~ostofice, that it is to the letter, all
parties ought to be satisfied, for their
letters are SEN in accordance with the
directions of the writers; and less than
one tenth of the mail matter isunmark-
ed. We have, however, the positive
assurance from responsible parties in
the Hills that their letters, ordered to
be sent via Cheyenne, have turned VI
at a very late day via that great fraud,
the Sidney stage. We have therefore
set afoot an investigation, which will
prove, beyond peradventure, who is to
blame in this matter. Capt. Wander
WORT, the chief head clerk, we know is
enforcing his orders in good faith, and
the fault must lie elsewhere. That
gentleman writes to us in regard to the
recently reported loss of mail matter on
the Sidney route.
II am using all means in my power
to find out the cause of loss, and if it
was through carelessness, l shall order
all mail via Cheyenne, without regard
to the way it is marked"
