Tar trade winds are produced
by the diurnal revolution Of the
earth, extending from 20 degrees
North to 20 degrees south Of the
equator; and sailors hail with joy
their advent into them, after being
tempest tossed and worn, as produce
tive of a season of rest. For weeks
they sometimes do not touch a sail,
bounding homeward through fields
of sea weed alive with minute shell
fish, and observe the play of the
grampus, porpoise, bonita, and the
terrified fight of the flying fish from
the latter. How much more delight
full then must it be to guide the bark
of poor humanity into the trade

of disease and suffering, and make

SHADE FOR POULTRY.

Everybody knows that our domes-
tic fowls love shady places during
the hot days, as they do sunny spot
in cold weather. Shade is essential
to their comfort, and we may safely
add, to their life. All places where
the sun does not shine are not fit re-
sorts for the denizens of the poultry
yard. A damp, confined atmosphere
is worse than the blazing sun. Roup,
catarrh, rheumatism and many other
similar ailments inevitably result
from ranging in such localities. Nor
is the close, siiAed, but dry air,
found in tight buildings, under floors
or stable l)i 5, scarcely better. Dis
ease is contracted, vermin multiplied,
aud the profit side of the poultry led
ger remains blank. .a..
Fowls of all kinds delight in the
shade furnished by an open she'd, SO
arranged as to admit the air from all
points of the compass. If the soil
is off earth, we'll raised and pulver
lied, so much the better. They will
enjoy the dust bath and keep cool at
the same time. The live oak also
forms an excellent shade, provided
there are not too many in close pfox-
I'M y. In the heat of the day the
young and the high-aying kinds can
be found high up among the branches
while the HEAVIER and soberminded
ones enjoy their "siesta" upon the
cool ground.
This may seem matter of trifing

THE PENNSYLVANIA REVOLT

Brewster ON Cameron.
Last winter our people were
shocked with the election of j. Dom
aid Cameron, the irresponsible son of
Il senator of whom | will not speak.
because he and his acts have become
a apart of public history and must be
measured with more delibe-ation
than can be given in a casual con-
yersation like this--a son that has
neither mind attachments, dignity of
character, knowledge ofpublic affairs
party services or personal worth to
warrant his advancement, and who
has no record but bad one as an
intrigucr and manager of bad men.
Tie was first forced into the war de-
partment as the price of his offer to
bctray his s,ate and rc-nominatc
General Grant, and after being there
he was basc-born in his notions of
dcecncy and gentlehood as to solicit
and urge, by all the mean arts of
political contrivauce, that he should
be retained as the companion Of cab
met officers and gentlemen who did
not want him. Failing in that, by
tho coarse brute force of organized
power he jostlcd his old father out OF
his place, and thrust himself into q
Senate where he will be au object o.

WAsHNeroE, sept. l4.-The SUI
preme Court has decided that the Pne
bio Indians OF New Mexico are not a
tribe within the meaning of the act
which forbids the settlement on any
landf se ,ured or granted by treaty
with the United States To any Indian
tribe, and that thev do not hold the
land they claim by tenure which
briggs them within the terms of that
act. The court say that If they differ
from the other inhabitants Of New
Mexico In noliing lands in common,
and in certain particular form of do
mestic life, they only resemble in this
regaid the Shakers and ether com
munistic societies in this country, and
cannot for that reason be classed with
the nomadic Indisn tribes. The Char
acter and history of these Indians occu
py Well known page the story OF Mex
CO from the conquest OF the country
by Coltez TO the cession OF New Mexi
Gu to the United States by the treaty
of Guadaloupe Hidalgo. For ceDtu-
ries they have lived in villages, in fix
ed communities, each having its own
municipal or local government. As far
rs their history can be traced, they
have been a pastora and agricultural
people, raising flocks and cultivating
lhe nil. SInce the Introduction OF
the Spanish Catholic missionary into
the country. they have adopted main
iy not only the Spanish language, but
the religion of n Christian church.
They manufacture nearly all their
blankets, clothing agricultural and
culinary implements, &c. Iutegrity
and virtue among them Is fOstered
and encourages. They afe rs intelll
Z ut as most nations or people depriv-
ed of means or facilities for education.
Their names, their customs, their hab- |
ts, are similar To those Of the people |
in whose midst they reside, or in the |
midst Of whom their pueblos are stu
lted. They are Indians only in tea
ure, complexion, and a few Of their
habits, in all ether respects super or
% All but few ot the civilized In
jlan tribes ct the country, and the
.qual Of the most civilized thereof.
When the act CT 1894 was passed
here were no sHch Indians as these IN
he United ST ties, unless 1t he one or
woI .rvations or tribes, such as the

The Springfield Republican,

THE Springfield Republican, a
few weeks ago, proposed compro.
mise of the Presidential question, the
points of which were that Tilden
should be declared President and
that he should graciously appoint
Hayes, Secretary of State. The idea
was worthy Of Sam Bowles, who is
some times as crazy as he is ordlnari.
ly impracticable and uncandid.
But appropos of this suggestion, a
good story is told Of Hon. W. NJ.
Evarts who has been named as Mr..
Hayes possible Secretary of State.
Mr.. Evarts was recently entertain
ed on the occasion of his slxtieth
birth day, at the residence of Con-
gresham Chittenden, of New York,
in Washington. In the course Of
the evening the notion of the Spring
field Republican was brought up in
conversation, and Mr.. Evarts was
asked what he thought of it. He re.
piled, much to the amusement of the
guests: ooh, it's well enough for
Governor Hays to give away his own
Office If he thinks he ought to; but
I'd like to know what right he has to
take mine"

THE Chicago Times is the leading
Democratic paper of the Northwest,
and its comments upon its own party
should be accepted, by Democrats at
least, as authoritative and reliable.
Here is its estimate of the Demo
cratic majority in the House of Rep
resentatiyes. That it is a just and
true Characterization no one needs
to be assured, who has watched the
course of that body:
''The controlling section in the
present House of Representatives is
a body of spoils-seeking politicians al
most beneath contemptfortheir feeble
ness and political aimlessness. 1t is
the weakest, most pusillanimous and
contemplate representative body ev-
er assembled at Washington. 1t is
an aggregation of partisan odds and
ends; thing OF "shreds and patch
esq; a combination Of crossroad poll
tlcians. Confederate Colonels, "Grang-
err" idiots, partisan mountebacks and
political charlatans of the lowest or
der. There are a few, very few,
men of brains, who, with experience,
would develope faculties of states
manship; but their number is so
small and their inexperience so great
that their influence amounts to moth
ing in effect.

The Blue Glass Theory

The curative and developing prop
critics of sunlight after passing
through blue grass, professed to
have been discovered by Gen. Pleas.
anton, and the theory of which was
by him preached some time since.
has lately come to occupy a consid-
cradle share of public attention, is
being wildly discussed in the papers,
and put to the test of actual expert
ment in good many cases. The
theory briefly is stated as follows:
When the sunlight falls upon
these adjacent panes of glass, it pas.
SEES directly through the plain trans
parent glass into the apartment,while
the adjacent beam of sunlight, NOV
ing with like velocity as that which
is passing through the plain glass,
undergoes striking change. Six Of
the seven rays of this light suddenly
arrested at a velocity of 1856, 900
miles per second of time, and only
one ray of it, the blue ray, being adj
misslble through the blue glasses,
passes into the apartment, the six
other rays which have been stopped,
produce enormous friction in con
tact with the glass. The friction
evolves negative electricity, which
is the electricity of the sunlight
passing through the cold ether of
space and one cold atmosphere, both
OF which are also negatively elcctri-
fed. This negative electricity, thus
involved by the friction OF the estop-
ped primary rays, as soon as it comes
in contact with the vitreous or posi-
tive electricity of the blue glass, pro-
duces heat and magnetism by the
conjunction. The heat thus produc-
ed expands the molecules of the glass
and current of electromagnetic
passes into the apartment, and de-
velops astonishing effects upon the
vital organs of plants and animals
Now, the greater number of these
adjacent blue and plain panes of
glass there are with certain limits)
in any given area of window frames,
the greater will be the number of cleo
tro-magnetic currents that will enter
the apartment will DE impregnated,
SO to say, with electromagnetic.

Sam Bowles, of the Springfield Rrpu6-
l;can, writes to his paper from Washing
ton that lone of the interesting facts to
be found on the surface in the Capital
city, is that Republicans of any real char.
acter or standing have ceased to defend
the Louisiana Returning Board, or to
claim the vote of louisiana as rightfully
belonging to Hayes.
The above appears in the Conser-
vative of this week. At the risk of
offending our friend, &c. d." it
must be characterized as one of Sam
Bowles' inverted facts. 1t certainly
was not true when written, nor at
any other time, and nobody had bet
ter opportunity to know this than
Sam Bowles. In fact it would trou.
BILE S. B. to name half a dozen Re-
publicans in Washington, of charac-
ter and prominence, who do not
claim Louisiana as rightfully belong
ing to Hayes. The paragraph we'll
illustrates the priggish habit of the
Springfield editor of measuring char
acter and standing by the standard
Of acquiescence in his views, just as
he measures Intellectual capacity by
the provincial standard of New En-
gland birth and education.

IT would look as If Hewitt was
about ready to unload himself of
Sam Tilden and his tangled schemes
for attaining power. He was before
the Senate Committee on Privileges
and Elections on Monday, and with
peculiar junction stated explicitly and
probably truly that he was not re.
sponsible in any way for the Oregon
rascality recently revealed by the CT
pher kilograms. He placed the re-
sponsibiiity of that dirty business
with Pelton, Tilden's nephew, though
he said he possessed the key to the
cipher, and would furnish it to the
Committee if desired.

THE BLACK HILLS.
A Graphic Pen Picture of Deadwood.

A Graphic Pen Picture of Deadwood.
Yesterday afternoon, says the Nir-
ginia New Chronicle, this office
was visited by Harry Williams, an
old Comstocker, who has for some
months past been trying his luck in
the Black Hills with good results.
Mr.. Williams is keen observer of
events, and does not require to be
pumped to be induced to tell what
he knows.
"Tell us all about Deadwood, Mr..
Williams?"
"Deadwood may be considered a
pretty lively town; that is, lively for
town of 1000 inhabitants. Of
course, it's the central camp, where
all the gambling, fighting and bust
ness is done. Everything goes Oh a
grand rush night and day. There Is
no regularity about anything. A
man opens a place of business and
makes lots of money,then he gets the
prospecting fever, starts for the
gulches and shuts up the shebang.
When a place is closed up it means
that the owner is out digging, has been
killed in II fight, or is off on spree.
We have no municipal government
at all. Every man thinks he's Mayor
Of the town. Every once in while
the boys call mass meeting, draw
up resolutions, ETC., and decide to in
corporate the town and have Board
of Aldermen; but at the end of the
week nobody knows what has be-
come of the resolutions or the Alder
men. We start new City Govern
ment every two weeks and bust one
every week-if there is any.

They run a sort of variety show, and

got tired of it, and they said, give
