LANDHOLDERS AND TENANTS.

The owners and tenants of farming and
planting lands in the northern section Of
Calvert county, Md. recently had a
meeting in counsel as to the pecuniary
relations between them and hired labor
ers. 1t was resolved, in view of the fact
that provisions have measurably decreas-
ed il prices and that the profits of farm
ing and tobacco planting have declined
in equal ratio, that contracts for hired
labor for the year 1878 shall stipulate for
SIS and board for No. male hands and
$45 for No. 2 hands. Minors, according
to age and capacity, are to be paid from
S20 to $40. Day hands, for general farm
work, are to receive 81 cents, and women
for housework $3 per month. Itwas also
resolved TO discountenance the renting of
houses to persons who do not hire out to
labor or who have no special trade or
employment. AS the labor generally of
that section, is colored these stipulations
Of course apply directly to that class.

A place in Oregon has q large
number of springs that throw out
mud and a considerable area has
been covered. Last fall miner re-
ported that the mud contained silver,
and samples that he carried to San
Francisco assayed at over $4,000
ton. A company was organized; but
merhory of the Arizona diamond
swindle was fresh, and the belief was
general that the mud had been
"salted." Prof. Thomas Price ana
lyzed the silver, and gave it as his
opinion that it had been arti6cially
deposited. That killed the enter
prise. Now, Prof. II. G. Hanks, in
a paper read before the California
Geological Society, holds that the
flow OF the mud springs is really i'm
pregnated with silver. lie says: 81

In one of the larger springs, when the
weather is cold, the mud will be of a

when the day is warm the mud is

rich in silver. Some of them contain
a great deal of acid, the bones of an

OUR PALACE CAR.

The most wonderful palace car
that was ever built is this orb on
which we live. Large enough to
hold the human family, its resources
are, with proper care and effort on
the part of the passengers, sufficient
to sustain them all comfortably, with
a great deal to spare. 1t supplies
its own fuel and makes its own time.
Its speed is about $4,000 miles per
hour, yet so accurately does it move
that those who have well studied its
movements can tell to a fraction in
what part of its airline track it will
be on any future day. With good
held-glasses, other palace cars, equal
in beauty and grandeur to this, can
easily be seen flying along the high
ways of space, yet none of these are
ever known to come in collision.
Onconsciously, to the passengers,

passengers in their places; but aDho
