The Industries of Morocco.

An interesting lecture was given in
London lately on productions and econ
omic customs of Morocco. The number
of manufacturers is not large, but car
pets are brought to an extra degree of
perfection, in great measure by reason
of an excellence of dyes derived from
banks of trees fourishing there. Their
metal work (the southern provinces are
exceedingly rich in minerals) is beauti-
full, and, as everybody knows, their
leather is renowned. They make it only
four colors, bright buff, white, red, and
reddish brown. Amount exported in
1870, was valued at SIS, 900; that of the
wooden stuffs and carpets exported in
1871, at $4,000. In all parts of the
country they adopt peculiar and very
effective plan for preserving cereals, by
digging great holes in the ground, and
seal up Theoretically with lime and
other material, and wheat thus garnered
will remain in order for and even thirty
years

A Proposition to Divide Up Utah.

The best solution of the Mormon
problem yet proposed is that of dividing
up Utah among the adjoining states
and territories. Two contiguous states,
Nevada and Colorado, do not to-day con-
tain a sufficient population to justify
their admission. Nevada has not $4,000
people within its borders, and Colorado
has less than 100000. Territorially
there is no reason why the eastern por-
ton of Utah should not be annexed to
Colorado, and the western to Nevada In
creating the original Territory of Ne
vada, a large slice was cut off fIom Utah,
and another portion might now be added
with advantage. Such an addition might
prove advantageous in improving the
politics of that state by introducing there
in another element. And there is no
doubt that the people of Nevada would
take due care to punish polygamy
within their borders. Colorado would
be benefited by the annexation Of por-
ton of Eastern Utah, and the territories
Of Idaho, Montana, and Arizona could
with advantage absorb the northern and
southern portions.

Funeral Obsequies in Patagonia.

The barial rites of the Patagonians are
very curious. 1t appears that the body
is replaced in the same position which it
had occupied before birth, namely, with
the knees touching the chin. It is then
sewed up in a skin newly fayed, and laid
in sandy soil, the head nearly level
with the surface. So much Importance
is attached to the punctilious accomplish
ment of his duty, that by strange
deviation of the moral sense it overrides
the respect for human life. Thus, when
an old man approaches his last hour, his
friends seek less to relieve his suferings
than to perfect his burial. Apprehend-
ing that his bones, indurate by age, may
become too rigid after death, they are
careful to press his limbs into the post
ure, and stitch him up, while living, in
his shroud, which, being a raw hide and
shrinking as it dries, of course occasions
exquisite torture. What seems incon-
sistent with this ceremony, which indi-
Gates a belief in a second birth, is the
custom of placing in the grave weapons
and tools, and in the case of a cacique a
fine horse, as if the deceased were about
to undertake a Journey.

Il suppose so. He never attempted

of blighted hopes, and all that. Perhaps
it's as well.'

FUCI MUNDI,

BY CHARLES ]. DUNPHIE.
i" Why let the stricken deer go weep
The hart ungalled play;
For some must watch, while some must sleep:
Thus runs the world y.''-Hdmtet.
Like snowy lilies, feet as fine,
Whose fragrant course is run;
Like dewdrops on the eglantine;
Like frost-work in the sun
So vanish youths delightful dreams;
So beauty's charms decay;
For nothing is, but only seems:
Thus runs the world away!
Like foam upon the pillows bright;
Like sunsets gorgeous dyes;
Like mconbeams shedding silver light
Over the jeweled skies
So swiftly from our vision glide
Hopes plans and projects gay;
Alone we roam at eventide:
Thus runs the world away!
OF friends whom ruthless time destroys
We're day by day bereft
The spectres of our persisted joys
Are all the comrades left.
Loves chain is broken link by link;
We sing this mounful lay,
Forlorn upon the rivers brink,
Thus runs the world away.

A Sharp Trick.

In the Glasgow Herald is related as
sharp a trick as ever was played with
horse-fesh, and that is saying a good
deal. A match was made between a cat
tie driver and farmer, the bet ESQ, az
to which of their horses would first
reach an inn in Linlithgow, driven
from Edinburg, the first at the goal In
full harness to receive e1O0. One OF the
wagerers, fearing to lose, OF 1ered a
special engine and horse box, then allow
ing himself after the start to get behind,
on coming to station he put his team
aboard and by special train soon reached
Linlithgow. The other man drove
quietly on, much delighted to find him
self alone on the road, but on reaching
the inn was told to his disgust his oppo-
nent had arrived there twenty minutes
before him, his horse in full harness be-
ing first at the goal.

The 104-year-old mother of Judge
Moulton, of Kittanning, Pa, is the sub
ject of as remarkable regeneration as if
she had dipped in a fabulous fountain of
youth. Within the last two years, her
hair, for long time being pure white,
has darkened gradually until it has
nearly recovered it's original color, and
not only that, but her mental faculties
have appeared to receive new impulse,
and she can read without the aid. OF

Payne Police Jury Warrants.

In the proceedings last week our Police
Jury passed an ordinance which they in
tended should not have had the scope
and effect it really did have. What was
intended was to have made the paper
issued in 1876, by the Payne Police jury,
a body that represented the tax-paying
and intclli.c citizens of this parish,
and whose acts were ontrageonsly and
wantonly swept away by the Succeeding
body of Radicals, receivable for the
taxes due and collecinble IN 1916, instead
of which, the resolution stated "recciva-
bic for the taxes Of 1867 which are the
revenues of 1877 and held sacred by law
for the expenses incurred during this
year. The tax collector vas cnjoincd
from receiving the paper spoken of for
the taxes of 1916, and very little of the
money was, in consequence, paid i'll.
Our Police Jury has so far been mod
el one, and the pubic are FULLY satlsf q
they did not intend to pass an ordinance
of the character and scope the resolu-
tion of last session was very properly
susceptible of.
The parish finances now stand on bet
ter grounds than ever before. The cur
rent issue is at par, while all indebted
ness is paid promptly in United States
currency.
The present Democratic members of
The Police Jury are gentlemen of stand
ing and high character, and they have
made record as officials their people
and party may we'll be proud of hence
We say that no criminal intent can be at
tached to the passage of an unfortunate
resolution, which is now very properly
cstoppcd from enforcement by law.

Is It Really So,

We learn from gentlemen residing
in Cloutierville, ward 10 of this par
ish, that the Governor has appointed
one J. r. Hornsby to the position Of
Magistrate Of that ward, and that
much just indignation is expressed
thcrcat.
Hornsby is VIGOROUSLY bad char.
acter and was one of the plundering
police jnrymen made to resign in 1874
by an indignant, outraged people,
and it seems that people, who assist
ed in electing the present State ad-
ministration, arc TINS insulted BY
their own friends in this outrageous
appointment.
Where are al those promises Of
"honcst men for office" made by the
Democracy when they were demand
ing the sutfrages of our people 7 Is
this a sample of ''good and true"
magistrates that We were to have
when the new era came ? Why Kel-
logg dared not do such a thing as ap-
point this fellow to office. Even he
had decent respect for public opin-
ion with regard to Hornsby. No
wonder the people Of Cloutierville,
one of tho most important wards in
the parish, are indignant and loud in
their denunciation of this app ONT
ment.
We think this reward of enemies,
the enemies of peace, society, civil
ization and property, has gone quite
far enough, and when it eliminates
in the appointment of such creatures
as Hornsby whom tile people drove
from Office because he was assisting
in plundering them, all classes be-
come justly angcred and demand a
change shall be made.
We ask in the name of the respect
able people of ward ten that this fel-
low be at once removed Their wish
es have not been consulted in The ap.
pointment and they are indignant
and insulted when such character is
given office by State government
that is supposed and hoped to be vir-
tuous.
