ONE EFFECT
OF THE GREAT RAILROAD
STRIKES.
English and German Capitalists
Alarmed, and American
Credit Tumbiing.

Cable Telegram to New York Herald.
LONDON, July 25.-Extraordinary
anxiety is felt in all circles concerning
the disturbances in the United States.
The suddennsss, rapidity and general
extent of the strikes are regarded as
surprising and exampled. The strikes
have made deeper and more painful
impression on England than any event
since the outbreak OF the War of Seces-
sion in 1861. AS yet neither the Eng
lish people nor the newspapers have
been able to form any clear theory as
to the cause of the outbreak. The pub
lie find i'm London newspapers only
cold statements, such as the location OF
the riot, the number of people killed,
and the value of the property destroy
ed. The newspsp rs lave expressed
the hope that the Units d States Gov
ernment would succeed in suppressing
the insurrection. The Daily Telegraph,
however, thinks the corruption and
mismanagement of the railroad man.
ayers have given to the employees the
temptation and the opportunity.
Whatever Is the result OF the Govern
ment's interference, the effect of the
strike must be
CALAMITOUS TO AMERICAN CREDIT
s ABROAD.
A very painful impression is pro-
duced here by the action of Governor
Williams, of Indiana, In declaring that
he would not interfere between the
strikers and the Railroad Companies.
IT is the impression. however, among
the -uore reasonable portion of the
English people that Governor Will
liams' remarks were incorrectly cabled
to this country. The thousands of hold
ers of American railroad securities in
England can be made to believe that
the Governor of State in the Union
would not interfere to protect the rights
of property
OUR COUSINS GERMAN ALSO AGITATED.
The Herald's correspondent at Ber
lin telegraphs that intense interest pre-.
walls in the German Capital regarding
the great American railrond strike
Most OF the papers nave daily leaders
on the subject. The Socialist leaders
are loud in their eulogies of the mar
tyred MoIlie Maguires, and to show
their sympathy for the strikers have
opened subscriptions in their favor
Not much money is raised, however.

John Smith, young attorney, just admitted
TO the bar,
Was solemn and sagacious ss-as young at
toIneys are;
And frown of deep abstraction held the
seizin of his face
The result of contemplation of the rule in
Shelley's Case.
One day in term-time Mr. Smith was sitting
in the Court,
When some good men and true of the body of
the county did on their oath report,
That heretofore, to wit: upon the second day
of May,
A. d. 1877, about the hour of noon, in the
county and state aforesaid, one Joseph
Scroggs, late of said county, did then ano
there feloniously take, steal and carry
away
One bay horse, of the value of fifty dollars
more-or less
CThe same then and there being of the proper
ty. goods and chattels of one HeZekiaf
HessG
Contrary to the statute in such case expressly
made
And provided; and aguinst the peace and dig
nifty of the state wherein the venue hac
been laid.
The prisoner, Joseph Scroggs, was then ar
raigned upon this charge,
And plead not guilty, and of this he threw
himself upon the country at large;
And said Joseph being poor, the Court die
graciously appoint
Mr.. Smith to defend him-much on tie SAINT
principle that obtains in every charity
hospital, where young medical student
is often set TO rectify serious injury II
an organ Or joint.
The witnesses seemed preiudiced against poo
Mr.. Scroggs;
And The district attorney made a thrilling
speech, in which he told the jury that il
they didn't find for the state he reckonet
he'd have to ''walk their logs"
Then Mr.. Smith arose and made his speecl
for the defense,
Wherein he quoted Shakespeare, Blackstone
Chitty, Archbold, Joaquin Miller, Story
Kent, Tupper, Smedes and Marshall, anC
many other writers, and everybody sale
they ''never heerd sich bust of elo-
quence."
And he said: 'On tbs hypothesis, my client
must go free"
And: "Again, on this hypothesis, it's morally
impossible that he could be guilty, dom
you see?'
And: 81 hen, on this hypothesis, you really
can't CONVICT
And so on, with sorty-six more hypothesis
upon none of which, Mr.. Smith ably
demonstrated, could Scroggs be derelict.
But the jury, never stirring from the bo,
wherein they sat,
Returned a verdict of ''guilty;" and his homo
straightway sentenced Scroggs to three
year term in the penitentiary, and {
heavy fine, and the costs on top of that;
And the prisoner, in wild delight, got uI
and danced and sung.
And when they asked him the reason of thi
strange behaviour, he said: ''It's becaus'
got off so easy-for if there'd ha' been
few more of them darned hypothesises,
should certainly have been hung!"

LETTER FROM oUARTzBURG.
OUARTzBURG. Nav 81. 1877.

QOAhIAbUhd, MAY ~, AoI.
! Ed WoRLD:-In sending you these
few lines | am fully sensible Of my in
competency to do this place and its in
habitants justice; but, availing my
self of nom de plume, behind which
1 am hidden, no one will know the au-
thor, $50 its will makes nothing out"
Quartzburg is quite lively little
place. 1t supports one store, livery
stable, boot and shoe shop, saloon and
other branches of business of minor
Importance.
Placer mining for the season is
about over, and no one has been heard
to murmur, for it has been better
water season than was expected by
any one.
The Gold Hill mine, which furnishes
steady employment for fifty or sixty
men, is still in fine condition and yields
rich ore in sufficient quantity to keep
their 25-stamp mill pounding away
day and night.
The Iowa Company, which has been
prosecuting work regularlyfor the last
few months in their mine has on hand
a sufficient amount of first,class ore to
Justify them in starting their mill,
which they will do the first of the
month.
What is now more needed than
anything else is a good school. How
is it, that while the people Of this
place pay their portion Of taxes, their
only have the benefit Of three
or four months schooling each year,
while other places in the same county
have from two to three teachers en-
ployed from eight to twelve months
in the year? Is this justice or is it
not?
In regulating the school law, did
our Boise County Legislators act in
accordance with their best judgments,
or with their own interests? | Wish
you will please lay this before the
County Commissioners and see if they
are not vested with power to do some
thing for us, and if possible have them
10 order the School Directors of this
place to employ a school marin at
1ncc, and set her to work for the ben
3ft of the poor children.

weeks, by the Rev. Mr. Mexican, who

We know that time is precious.
therefore how careful we should be to
employ every moment proftably, moi
sit bordering over the past and re-
hecting that we have not accomplished
more; tits never too late to turn over
a new leaf and commence an indus
trious and useful life. We cannot OBJ
llterate or better the past, no matter
how fam we would do so. Grieving
tor what we have not performed is
only spending more time to no pur-
pose. The zenith of glory cannot be
reached by indulgence. IF we wish
to gain eminence we must labor hard
and long for it; every moment must
be occupied by doing good and endeaE,
oring to help ourselves and others. It
is not only for our own welfare that
we should labor assiduously hour after
hour and day after day, but for the
happiness of all mankind. Our phi
lanthropy should encourage US to en-
ploy every moment, even if we pos
sess wealth sufficient to keep us in
idleness. The celebrities of the world
did not win their immortal names by
idling away their time. Alexander's
empires were not founded without the
greatest exertion of strength; neither
did Napoleon gain victories without
the most strenuous labor of mind and
body. Since we know that labor con.
quers all things it is our own fault if
we let idleness overcome US to such Q
degree that we fail to master the tasks
of life that every being must conquer
before they can reach the goal of sue
cess that is only attained by the la
borious. The longer we procrasti-
nate performing our duties the harder
they become; therefore, when we have
work to do we should do it Immediate
ly. 1t is only indolent and slothful
people that put off till to morrow what
should be done to-day. Why do we
spend our time in idleness when we
know that
The moments we spend in doing good
Will help to increase our Savior's love,
And when we are called to our home on
high
They'll serve, like the stars of the glorious
sky, ar
To Tighten the darkness which has to be
passed
Ere we reach our eternal home at last
