Monroe Esq, Receiver of the Ian,
fOmce, for copy of the new map o
idaho compiled from the official record
in the General Land Office at Washing
ton, and other sources by G. Roese1
principal draughtsman of the Genera
Land Office. So far as the surveyed
portions Of the Territory are concerned
it is authentic as reference, but the I'm.
surveyed parts are badly represented
and furnish poor guide for ascertain
ing the relative position of places in
Idaho, and the topography of the coun-
= try. AS one instance it designates the
main south fork of Salmon river as the
"little Salmon river" and locates Wash
ington upon the east side OF the south
fork and about ten miles south of the
45th parallel, whereas it is ten miles
west Of the south fork and as far north
" Of the 45th parallel. 1t entirely ignores
the great chain Of the Salmon mountains
which divides north from south Idaho,
W while it delineates the Occur dAlene,
III and other mountains of far inferior
ID magnitude, thus representing the whole
n country between the Boise river on the
south and the Spokane on the north as
7r one vast plain. A copy of this map has
been sent to this Land Office here for
use, with colored lines as boundaries
of the land districts of the territory
II 1t is wholly incorrect. We have two
land districts in Idaho, called the Idaho
land district and the Lewiston land dis
=. trict. The law says the former COM
.. prises all that part of the territory of
(, Idaho which lies south of the Salmon
Of mountains to which the Indian
y title is or shall be extinguished and
that the Lewiston land district consists
=, Of all that part Of the territory of Idaho
Iinlying north of the Salmon river range
! 9ofmountains. In the one case the law
y makes use Of the Salmon range and in
the other the Salmon river range, both
4 having reference to the same chain of
q mountains. The summit of this range
lis then evidently the dividing line be-
50 tween the two districts and that summit
IL many miles south of the Salmon river
aud is the, great watershed dividing
90 the waters which flow north into the
Salmon and those which flow south into
the Snake. To the Lewiston Land dis
trict under the law belongs all of Koot-
enai, Nee Perez, Shoshone and Idaho
$ counties, which are all north of the
Is summit of this Salmon range. But
this new map makes the Salmon river
itself the boundary line between these
two land districts, thereby giving to the
: Idaho district the largest portion of
{ Idaho county, containing the rich min
. ing sections of Warrens, Millers Camp
and the mines near Marshal Lake. The
? Receiver here utterly protests against
this attempt to absorb large portion of
his jurisdiction and attach it to the
southern district without authority of
Of law or shadow of right, simply by i,

rnE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

The great success of the late Commo-
dore Vanderbilt In stealnbOating anu
whereby he amassed larger
fortune than any other private person
during a Lifetime, has naturally awak-
ened Il strong desire to learn the secret
of his uniform and most surprising
achievements. The Commodore him.
self, when questioned upon the subject
during the latter years of his life, gave
vnrio1s examinations of It. To one
young man, who was about entering |
upcn the career Of a Wall street broker
and who had sought his counsel, he
said: t.Sonny, don't never sell what
yo,, havu't got," which was an excel
lent piece of advice for Ockbroktng
adventures, Notwithstanding Its defec-
tive GRAMMAR To another he said
ssSam, don't newer put it into any mans
mower to ruin yOu.o And this might
he nut in letters of gold over the desk
of every one who takes financial risks,
whether in Wall street or elsewhere,
and it would be an excellent maxim
also for u politician. To another aspi-
mnt for fortune, who had asked his
advice, he said: ssDon't never buy
what you can't pay fol"
These were three admirable maxlms
for business, and he probably acted
through his long and successful career
in strict conformity with them. He
Il never speculated, nor made any rash
ventures. But his favorite maxim, the
one upon which he set the highest val
i ue and most seriously inculcated upon
those who were on the most Intimate
Itcrms with him, was condensation Of
one among the West Of the proverbs o1
lSolomo ssln all labor there is profit;
but the talk of the lips tendeth enly tc

why TIDES OCCUR LATER EACH DAY,

AS the moon revolves around the
earth from west to cast, shc advances
eastwartlly in her orbit about thirteen
degrees every twcnty-four hours.
flence, when any part OF the eartl, IN
it's revolution, comes under part OF
the heavens where tho moon was the
evening before, the moon is not there,
but has gone eastward thirteen degrees,
and therefore the earth must turn on Its
axis as much longer as necessary TO
bring that part under the moon, which
requires generally, not always, about
fifty minutes. The same thing occurs
the next evening, and the evc-
| ming after, and thus the moon rises
most of the year about fifty minutes
later each day. Now, as the tides are
| produced mainly by the moon, 1t Will
at once be seen, from this eastward
| movement and the latter rising each
dny. While tho lunar tide is thus
daily tagging, the solar tide occurs at
the same time. Hence these two tides
always begin to separate after new
moon, being further apart each day,
until they again coincide ut full moon,
when there is n higher tide than usuai,
called spring tide. Then again they
separate, until uew moon occurs, Wheh
they once more unite, produced announcer
spring tide. IL nuoI uo. w '"ppo -.
that tho whole body OF the ocean, 10 its
profoudcst depths, is equally moved by
, the tides. The tides are mainly super
fetal. and except where the water Is OF
, moderate depth the lowest parts are
only slightly disturbed, but to wha
, denth the tidal current extends can
, never perhaps, be satisfactorily deter
I mined. The Gulf stream is about three
, thousand feet deep, having for it's bot
r tom a bed of colder water OF variou
f depths; but as the stream Is the resui
D of other causes than those which pro
, ducc the tides, it is not safe to estimat
: the depth of the tidal current by 1t
, own.

When Field Marshal Won Moltke
was a simple Colonel, he astonished
the members of his mess by regularly
taking ten Frederick d'ors out of his
pocket, at the beginning of dinner, and
laying them beside his plate. Always
after dinner he erepocketed the gold, but
toned up his coat, looked sourly around,
and disappeared. 1t was resolved TO
ask him the meaning OF his strange
behavior. "Well," he said, "1 have
| noticed that from the time ] entered
this regiment the conversation at table
has always turned on women, or cards
or horse racing; and had determined
to make u present ,of the ten pieces OF
gold to the first man who should start
a sensible subject: No one has yet
earned them"

Tho SOuthren Farmer says tho moro
u thoughtful man secs Of farming the
more no Is Impressed with y deep sonso
of the variety and extent OF tho quali-
ficntions required for 1t. There never
was, perhaps, n moro dclusivo state
ment than that .sanybody can be

balanced mind can learn trade, be.
cause long practice In one routine OF
labor will develop moro or less skill
but In good farming, 10 much good
Judgment, tact and fOrethought arc re-
uuirel SO much knowledge OF tletnils,of
men. Of markets, OF animals, OF tools, OF
insects and their habits, OF soils ana
their seeds, Of the atmosphere and Ats
changes, of tho chemistry of ferttiixeH
and their relation to soils, crops, soa-
sous and atmospheric changes, etc.,
| that It Is almost appalling sometimes
| to think of it and to expect the best
success. And yet this Is the vocation
into which more men arc crowded than
into any other human pursuit.
The Farmer is accused Of chronic
grumbling. He has a great deal to try
his patience. The rain that only vets
our feet may be destroying his wheat
crop, Just ripening for the reaping; the
rays OF the sun that Inconvenience US
are perhaps scorching his corn to the
death. These are not calculated 10
make a man, whose sole dependence is
his crops, possess his soul In peace
but with all these thigs to contend
against, there is, perhaps no class OF
persons more independent than these
same hardfisted farmers. With q ren-
sonable diligence his bread is sure, and
a kind providence secs that his water
, does not fail. Tho garden, the cattle
, and stock yard, tho poultry house, the
field, the orchard, are all his from
which to call for supplies, and the same
item Of clothing in trying times can be
brought within the reach Of the poorest
who is industrious enough to reach ou'
hand to take 1t.
In the general revival of business thu
farmer will undoubtedly be benehted
and his profits, always small from thei
G certainty, will be surer and steadier.

A Skeleton Factory

Boston Globe: Near Columbus, o.,

There had for a long time been

prejudices of unscientiilc PEOPLE he
gave out that he merely prepared food
there Tor an extensive hennery, from
which lie supplied the Columbus
market with fat and delicate poultry
But good deal Of curiosity was
excited Ivy teams which came and
went at the dead of night, aud by the
fact that nobody was ever admitted to
the long, low building from which
issued the smoke that betokeued the
constant cookery OF chicken food.
Finally a prying pump-maker entered
the building unnoticed, aud prompted
by curiosity, lifted the cover OF a
large cauldron, to discover, to bis
utter horror, half a dozen human
skeletons quietly grlnnlHg In hot
water. From him reporter got wind

How the R0thsciIiids Made Money On
ng tbe War

Paris Letter in the New Orleans Pie.
| svnne: I here has been much excite
ment in consequence of the news of
the exile of Midhat Pasha, received by
| the French government, and of the
refusal of the government to cOmmu-
nicate the news to the newspapers.
The explanation given by the minis
tiers are considered unsatisfactory.
This incident has reminded lie Consti-
tutionnel of a similar occurrence. In
December, 1861, in consequence of the
seizure, by Commodore Wilkes, Of
Of Messrs. Mason and Slidell, war be-
tween England and theHorthern states
seemed imminent. France could not
have kept out of this wgr. One morn
| irg he, who writes these lines, paid
his daily visit to the Press Office, in the
ministry OF the interior. lie Constitu-
| tounel then was quasi official news
paper. After talking upon various
subjects, we were about to take lave
of the director of the Press office,
when he said: "By the way, you may
| announce in lie Constitutional that
| the northern states have surrendered
| Messrss Mason aud Slidell.p We did
so. The effect was great The Bonrse
rose two francs. The following day
the funds continued to rise. lie Moni
eur did not mention it. The excite
ment was intense. DR.. Vernon, chief
editor and owner of lie Constitution
mel, wac accused of having made a
great deal OF money on change by
false intelligence. BY strange hazard
the paragraph in the lie Constitution
mel had escaped his eye. He sent for
me. He accused me of publishing
false news for stock jobbing, and in
sisted upon a satisfactory explanation.
1t was easily given. The director Of
the Press office had met Baron james
de Rothschild at the Grand Opera, and
the baron had communicated the in.
teligence to him. The baron had re-
ceived information of Messrs. Mason
and Slidelps surrender forty eight
hours before the French government
had learned Of it.
