BRITISH STOCK YARDS.
a Visit to the Great London Liv
Stock Market

Stock Market.
London Letter to the n. Y. Times
on Monday visited the great live
stock market of London, known as the
metropolitan Market 1t is situated in
lslington, and is awell planned and well
kept business place. The yard has long
rows of open pens in which the cattle
stand, tied by the neck to cross bars.
This leaves the beast enough liberty to
admit of the buyer judging of him.
Every pen has room for 100 head. The
sheep pens are also open, and hold in the
| aggregate $4,000 head The pens for
calves are raised above the level of the
yards, and are sheltered with roofs, the
sides being open. There is room yet
again for 1000 swine. These animals
remain under shelter; 900 head of
horned cattle have room at one time,
together with the other numbers given
The alley-ways, pens and causeways are
tioored with granite blocks. There are
tour hotels, one on every corner OF the
space occupied by the market, The ho-
tel, the Black Bull, kept by the widow
Davis, appears the favorite. lslington
market is the most easy of access. Tram
ways, omnibuses and railways lead to it
from all directions. A strong palisade
of wrought iron-work surrounds these
yards, the entrance to which are wide
and handsomely ornamented with BULBS
heads. In the centre of the Enclosure is
a building for bank and market offices,
also telegraph and postoffice. The san
itary laws are rigidly enforced. The
market is swept out and flushed every
day after business hours. On Friday
there is market for horses, ponies, and
donkeys; also for miscellaneous articles,
where those who will can buy anything
from a pin to steam pillow. Close to
the live stock yards is what Britons call a
lairage, where weary beasts are rested,
and where herds and focks are collected
to await market day This lairage is
sheltered and subdivided, and provender
can be had at fair rates. In compliance
with recent act of parliament, spacious
slaughter houses have been erected adj
joining the live stock yards. The ami
mails are slaughtered in most merciful
manner; one blow from the pointed end
of a pole AK stuns the beast, the butcher
then inserts the point of the lance into
the pith (anatomically speaking, sewers
the spinal cord), then one cash severe the
great blood vessel of the throat. The
blood flows freely; there is no pain, no
discoloration, death having been instan-
taneOus

ANYTHING for Escape.

The lessons just now taught in our
Sunday schools "cut to the quick
whenever there is in the pupil tender
conscience and sense of sin. A bright
little fellow in a New York school, who
felt the application of their truths to be
too close for his personal comfort, burst
out with the exclamation, ~ wish had
died when | was baby and got rid of all
this" After his teacher had kindly
shown him how much he would have
missed by passing out of life as soon as
it begun, and had pointed out the folly
of his wish, the boy, in no measure re-
lieved from the uncomfortable sense of
responsibility resting upon him tried to
wriggle out of it in this fashion, Well,
| wish [ was an Indian, anyway, for they
don't have to know about these things"

Are Fat PeOple Healthy.

Why are fat people always complain
ing !! asks some one who entertains the pop
ular though erroneous notion that health is
synonymous with fat. Fat people complain
because they are diseased. Obesity is an
abnormal condition of the system, in which
the saccharine and oleaginous elements OF
the food are assimilated to the partial ex-
cluslon OF the muscle-forming and brain.
producing elements. In proof of this, it is
only necessary TO assert the well-known fact
that excessively fat people are never strong,
and seldom distinguished for mental powers
or activity. Besides, they are the easy prey
of acute and epidemic diseases, and they
are the frequent victims of govt heart dis
ease. apoplexy. Adams Anti Fat is the
only known remedy for this disease. 1t
contains no acid, is absolutely, aarmIess, and
is warranted to remedy the most confirmed
case OF obesity, or corpulency.
FAMILIARITY with the writings of the
great poets is 3 necessity to any one who

THE woFUL TALE OF GOTHAM

IDEA.


slackl alas alackl all mel
Axoful tale TIl tell to thee,
Of lothian Brown, known as J. B.,
a staIBart youth, OF ruddy blee,
who in his boots stood six foot three,
A. twentysone, with one idee!"
His small eyes had that far-off look
which have read within book
Great genius has his visage glum
was ever one emphatic mum;
And how thought could ever gain
A Iodgment in his narrow brain,
Must "a as undiscovered knowledge,
Beyond the ken Of world or college
No matter-there's the fact-keep still;
Leave it for future thought and skill;
Mems minds are far too prone to borrow
What righfully ranks with tomorrow,
Wait wait! a warning you shall see
In this same youth. this brave J. 3.
Poor j. B., on the evil day,
Had CHANGED to hear some person say,
e That one foot ever strove to gain
Upon the other, aud twas plain
q hat, let them strive however fast,
One foot must be ahead at last.
And still twas left for some keen mind
Which foot IS always last to find"
Then j. b. puzzled long and late,
Ana scratched his head DER book and slate,
Resolved that his that mind should be
10 set this wo2drous riddle free.
Poor lothian Brown!
Poor lothian Brown,
All night, all day sought rest in vain,
This puzzle ranking IN his brain,
And If by chance he fell asleep,
Such dreams beneath his lids would creep
OF feet. feet, feet, ten thousand feet,
Dragging on, and flying fleet,
Feet alone, and feet together
OF ev'ry hue and shape sOever,
That he would wake with shiveriRg moan,
To toss aud turn, and sweat, and groan,
To rice al last and figure Out,
III possible, sor0e new-iound doubt.
Poor lothian Brown!
Poor lothian Brown!
At last he found no book nor slate
Which foot is last could truly state.
Then greatness sprang up in J. B.
Tie said he'd be E" consumed, If he
Didn't find out which foot was last
He swore that certain things he'd blast
IF he, j. B., could not find on I
I" This blessed fact" without SdOubt.
Poor lothian b ownl
Poor lothian Brown!
Now went a-pacing upand down,
Now went s-runuiBg here and there,
and walking, walking everywhere,
FL circle, round a square,
Night and day, both foul and fair,
Never stopping anywhere,
Until he grew quite lean and spare.
And these few words were all he said,
As on and on he endless sped

And lothian walked, and walked, and walked,
And lothian talked, and talked, and talked,
Just As ] We said, all night all day;
And people beard MIN in their beds,
And drew the sheets about their heads,
Nor dared single word to say.
And still he's travelling, day and night;
And now 'li- Left, and now It's right,
And now It's right, ana now It's left,

STONE COAL.

Gill Haggart, brought in wirh him from {
 deposit some twenty-five miles this side o
 Camp Apache, a sample of what appears tc
 be genuine bituminous stone coal. He de.
 scribes the bed from which it was taken as
 being three feet thick lyIng in a horizontal
 position three miles from the wagon road and six miles from branch of White River which affords water enough to carry large machiiery at all seasons
 The point of discovery is about 225 miles from Prescott, by the old road, and, say, 175 miles by the new government road. This coal IS used by Alex. Graden, blacksmith at Apache, and has been utilized by teamsters Tn repairing wagons, etc., in that country, all of whom pronounce it fair article of what IS known in commerce as soft coal. though development may find the vein more compact and solid as it runs into the hill from the ravine where it crops out.
 We have seen nothing hitherto in Arizona that so completely represented our idea of the genuine stone coal as this, and are now confirmed in the belief that c. P. Stauntan. was not much mistaken when he wrote con cerning the extensive coal measures of <AttIoua duu western New MeXlc0.
 MT. Haggsrt can lay thls coal down in Prescott for about six cents per pound. while all the coal used here in the foundry and for other purposes, which com ss ria. San Fran cisco costs ten cents, which shows at once that new industry must in the nature of things spring up based upon this discovery.
 In prospecting for coal there appears to be no fixed rule. Dana says .sThe the coal measures include all kinds Of sedimentary 'ocks: sand stones, lamlnated or shaly sand 'tones or shales; conglomerates, fine and ,oarse, buhrstone Ca cellular siliceous rock), md lime stones
 'Interstratifed with these rocks occurs he coal layers, and often in beds of iron Ire. There is no fixed order of super posi- ion. The coal beds are | hin compared with the associated rock stra- a usually not exceeding one-fiftieth of the vhclc thickness. The rock underlying A cal bed may be either of the kinds men toned; but usually it is a fine clay, called he under clay, and as it is frequently suit ble for making fire brick it is called fire lay. It generally contains fossil plants. specially roots and underwater stems. howing it to have been the bed of earth yer which plants grew that commenced to ,rm the coal bed."

POLITICAL

Hos. King s. Woolsey, to whom oll
 people srs more or less indebted for a grcs
 number of meritorious sets, is fairly befor,
 the voters of the Territory asking their sui
 frage on the 5th of November next. Mr
 Woolsey is quife we'll and favorabIy known
 all over the Territory. and if successful on
 the eventful day, much may be expected
 from hin, as he is acquainted with our every
 want, not biased as to section, and has spent
 nearly quarter of century in helping to developc the many wonderful resources of of Arizona. one of Uncle Sams grandest and most promising Territories.
 Another candidate before the people is John G. Campbell, q successful mer- chant of Prescott an old pioneer, thor oughly identified, and conversants with the wants of the people. Mir. Campbell came here at an early day and engaged in bIsiness, to which he has applied himself strictly, and is, today. one of our largest taxpayers.
 The hon. Juige De Forrest Porter, is also announced as . candidate py the Yuma Sen tinc., which paper claims that Yuma is en- titled te the next Delegate. and intimates that Yavapai should stand in with that couaty in electing Mfr. P,rter. claiming this for her services m putting her shoulder to shoulder with Yavapai county in time of need We can't see it in exactly that light. | Her vote stands recorded against Yavapai's | interest in nearly every measure. We have given the Territorial prison which is worth | more to them than the DeIegacy, and have charged them nothing. Judge Porter how ever, is an able man and if Yuma county can elect him, would undoubtedly do much for that section. Go for him MT. Tyng, you have the consent of at least one person in Northern Arizona.
 Mir. Stevens the present incumbent, will try for third time, as he has less nodesty than Gen. Grant, and Pima county rue to her former instincts will do everything easonable or unreasonable to see that ne is 'lected, relying of course somewhat on his money to accomplish that end.
 There are others who may yet come to the ront, and it appears from the political lorizon that the voters of the Territory will lot be at a loss to find candidates over nxious to receive their support.
 For county offices the people have been modest, only four gentlemen have S yet made known to the public that they re anxious about the welfare of the county nd are willing to lend tAeir names for the heriftalty at the coming November election.
