stituting particular feature of the ge-
illogical formation said to be entirely
composed of this mineral in condition
almost chemically pure. A superior ar
ticle OF salt is manufactured from the
waters Of the salt lakes Of the Terri
tory. This would seem to be vast
store-house Of wonderful and necessary
articles Of great utility for the use Of
the present and future generations.
Not only Of salt, but of gold and silver,
the great circulating mediums of COM
merce between nations and individuals.
Salt is spoken of as denoting charac-
ter. The salt Of our youth, as Shak-
speare says, that is, the vigor and
strength that we have is more or less
manifested in youth and shows what
kind OF a man the boy will make We
need much salt in our makeup, if this
is lacking we lack an important element
to keep us up in the world, both in in
fuence and usefulness. Above the salt
is an old saying In ancient times when
a nobleman made feast, there was set
in the center of the long table salt
cellar. At the upper end Of the room,
above the salt, was raised dias, as a
seat of honor, where all guests of dis
tinction sat, and below the salt the re-
tainers and inferior guests were placed.
This is practiced at the present day,
only in different way. Those who
prove themselves worthy of an upper
seat in life, either by goodness or pure
ness of charcter, commanding the re-
spect and confidence of those around
him, while he is striving to elevate 9TH
ers and making the world better, will
find that the seat of honor is in the
heart of the people, elevated above the
salt of society. On the other hand, we
see those who care for none of these
things, and so sit in the lower seats in
the feasts of life, discontented because
it is so. Salt is good-and free for all.

Shepherd Dogs.
From the American Agriculturis

The Scotch Colley dogs are remark
able for intelligence; an instinct which
seems sometimes to surpass reason;
wonderful endurance and activity. With
out these dogs, sheep-keeping in some
districts, useful for no other branch of
agriculture, would be impossible. The
home Of this breed is in the Scotch
highlands, locality of rocks and hills,
interspersed with grassy valleys; ele-
waited table lands bearing scanty herbage
and ''moors," of level or slightly un-
dulating tracts, covered with gorse,
heather, low bushes, bOggy places and
are kept in large focks, exposed from
day to day to all the vicissitudes of
storms, rains, mists and SHOWS, with no
other shelter than is afforded by the lee
side of abrupt precipices, overhanging
rocks, stone walls, or in rough shelters
of poles and neither. Without his dogs,
the shepherd would be helpless to man
age his fOcks in this rough country. In
countries where arabic land bears very
high price, only such land as cannot be
plowed is given up to sheep pastures,
and here the dog is invaluable. And
not only here, for he is made useful up
on the more civilized hill-sides of the
Scotch lowlands, the grassy downs Of
England, the rich farms where sheep
keeping is only incident to high culture
and upon our Western prairies. Every,
where where sheep are kept, a dog Of
some kind is found useful; and of all
the different varieties, the Scotch Colley
is considered the most valuable He
possesses rare instinct for his work
which comes as second nature to him
He often knows the way of sheep better
than his master, and understands the

signals of the shepherd when far out of
hearing, with great precision. Cases
have been known in which the dog has
discovered the absence of some laggards
of the flock which his master has not
missed, and has returned to the pasture
for them unbidden. He can range his
flock upon one side of the road, when
meeting other sheep, and thus keep
them from intermingling with the
strangers. He will discover by his acute
sense Of smell, sheep that have been
overwhelmed in show drifts, and will
conduct the shepherd to the place If
no help is available, he has been known
to dig into the drift and release impris-
oned sheep, and to warm chilled lambs
by huddling close to them. He is val
lent in their defense, and will give battle
to wolf without hesitation. No va
grant dog will be permitted to approach
flock of which he has charge. He will
bring back stragglers when upon the
march; and will return to find the sore
footed ones that have fingered by the
way For farm dog he is of especial
value, as he can be easily trained to
manage with gentleness any kind of live
stock He is domestic in his habits
While kind and affectionate to his own
er, and his herds, he is watchful and
suspicious of stangers and strange ami
mails. His good disposition gives him
great influence over his charge, and
causes them to have confidence in him.
When a flock is afraid of the shepherds
dog, it shows wrong management on the
part of the shepherd, and that the dog
has been badly trained. The Scotch
Colley has long and woolly hair; bright,
mild eye a sharp nose; an intelligent
aspect; a long, bushy tail, curling up
wards, with the end clear of the ground;
and in color is usually black and tan,
variegated with little white. Not the
least wonderful characteristic of this
dog is his tenacious memory, by which
he is enabled to remember all the turn
ing points in a journey of hundreds of
miles, and to recognize at sight every
member of the flock to which he has be-
come attached. With all his good quail
tiles, however, he sometimes lapses from
virtue; and no other dog is so destruc-
tive in the fold as sheep dog that has
become demorallzed by bad companions.
A traitor is the worst of enemies.

Salt.

The Bible says that Salt is good. .
In ancient times, salt was appointed to
season all sacrifices that were offered to
God. The prophet Elisha being desired
to sweeten the waters Of the fountain
of Jerico, required a new vessel to be
brought to him and salt therein. He
threw this salt into the spring, and said
''Thus saith the Lord" [ have treated
these waters, and in the future they
shall occasion neither death or barren
ness to the land. Wise men reckon salt
in the number Of things necessary for
life. Salt is the symbol of wisdom. Let
your speech be always with grace, sea-
soned with salt. Salt is also the symbol
of perpetuity and interruption. Thus
they said of covenant, 1t is coven-
ant Of salt, forever before the Lord.
Salt is symbol of hospitality, also Of
fidelity due from servants and Of friends,
guests, or officers, to those who main
tain them, or receive them in their
houses.
Travellers give accounts OF salt
marshes, and lakes, and of the sea
throwing up the water on the land, that
evaporates, leaving large deposits of
salt for great distance. Strabo men.
tions that to the southwark of the Dead
Sea there are towns and cities built en-
tirely of salt, and although, he adds, it
may seem incredible to others, it did
not to them after seeing all the wonder
full formations of salt, and further says,
1t was sufficient to justify them in the
appellation of plain, or Valley of Salt. y
Solomon discovered the anatomical pro-
perties of salt, when he said, 1T is mar
row to my bones" Chemists and physi-
clans the world over, tell US that salt is
good, and necessity of life.
God has strewn salt in vast prOfusion
all over the world 'Tis said that Rus
sia seems built on a salt foundation
The large mines there turn out annually
ninety thousand tons, and are mex
haustable. Austria yields nine hundred
thousand tons annually. Norway and
Sweden are white above ground with
snow and white below with salt. l have
heard that in Galicia there are mines of
salt with excavations and under ground
passages reaching two hundred and
eighty miles. Far under ground are
chapels and halls Of reception, the col
umns, the affairs and pulpits all of salt
When these are illuminated they are
beautiful beyond description
Our own country produces fourteen
million bushels Of salt q year. This pro-
duct alone is source of untold wealth
to the nations where it abounds. Utah
abounds with salt rivers and lakes
Rock salt is abundant in various sec.
tions of the Wahsatch mountains, con.

on untrammeled to the bright and stain
less goal of the pure and just. This wise,
virtuous and noble man need not be the
creation of fancy, merely, but may be
made substantial reality; and the glo-
ry of the coming generations, as they
more and more fall into the ranks Of
physical, intellectual and soul culture,
and form those well trained legions, the
tread of whose gathering millions shall
jar the earth, will demonstrate to the
world the priceless value of that fault
less educational system (now in process
of growth) that shall In the fullness Of
time sweep ignorance, superstition, vice,
pauperism and crime in one chaotic
mass into the abyss of oblivion, to re-
main there forever.

Be Loyal to your County Paper.
From New York Times.


We know of no impropriety less justi
fable than the ceaseless finding fault
with ones local paper. We do not pro-
pose discussing the difficulties under
which newspaper is prepared, nor do
we intend to lay down rules by which
one may judge whether or not the paper
is worth the patronage of its constitu
ents. One thing is certain; the world
would be a dreadful dreary place were
the local newspapers suddenly to die.
The American people, we verify believe,
would actually become wild if all news
papers should cease publication for
twelve month There are many thou
sand newspapers in the land by no
means as many as there shall be fifty
years hence. The damp, fresh sheet
laid daily or weekly at your doors, gives
you the world in miniature. You read
its comely columns, and feel the pulsa
tions of the mighty mass of humanity,
and become en- nraporte with all its move
ments. Some people are all too prone
to depreciate their own local papers and
magnify the merits of out-of-town news
papers As rule the local newspaper
is as good a newspaper as the cOmmuni-
ty in which it is published will support.
Occasionally we find cities and villages
which are not properly taken care of
by their papers, but in this day of fierce
competition, there are those always
standing ready with the requisite brains
and capital to fill wants long felt" and
if people will subscribe and pay for a
paper they can always be accommodated
with prime article. We do not respect
a person who either himself speaks or
permits others to speak slightingly of
local newspaper Citizens have a Slight
obligation in this matter as we'll as pub
fishers. 1t is their duty to be loyal to
the press, and sustain it in all that it
does which is not prejudicial to the best
interests of the community. There is
scarcely city in New York State that
has not excellent newspapers, and those
communities which best sustain local
press by advertising and subscriptions,
as rule have the most enterprising and
readable papers.

AN IMPORTANT CURRENCY LETTER.
Some Late and Important Information
on This Question.
From the Burlington Hawkeye.

From the Burlington Hawkeye.
The extent to which certain interest
bearing securities entered into and in
flated the monetary circulation of the
country about the close of the war, il
an important question because the
Greenbackers insist that there has beer
a vast contraction Of the currency, ar
assertion that can be sustained only by
including the whole, or at least the
greater part of these interest bearing
notes as money. The following letter
from Hon. j. 7. Power, the Chief of the
Warrant Division Of the Treasury De-
partment, is the latest official and au
thentic statement on this subject. Il
ought to and doubtless will set the mat.
ter at rest with all fair minded men
Nothing can be expected to convince in
veterate Greenbackers, for
| Convinced against their will
| They are of the same opinion STILL"
and will continue their campaig of de-
ception and misrepresentation. But
those who want to know the truth and
who do not want to believe lie and be
deceived by it will read carefully this
letter, which the Hoaokeye is permitted
to publish for the important informa-
ton it contains:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY,
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. l, 1878.
Hon. Charles Beardsley, Burlington,
Loaca: SIR:-I am in receipt of yours
of the 25th ultimo, asking whether any
of the seven-thirty notes were legal
tender, and what propotion, in my judg-
ment, Of the compound interest notes,
FIVE per cent. notes, and one and two
year notes entered into circulation.
In reply | have to state that the seven
thirty notes had no legal tender feature
impressed up on them by law, as in the
case of the compound interest notes,
and the one and two year notes, yet, to
some extent they entered into the circu-
lation.
Immediately after each interest period
January and July, these notes were liza
BILE to be thrown upon the market as
currency, but as soon as interest began
to accumulate again they were boarded.
1t is difficult to make any ineligible
estimate as the extent the compound
interest, thirty, and one and two
year notes inflated the currency, but,
basing an estimate upon the denomina-
tions issued, and giving to the circula.
ton all the tens and twenties, one-half
the fifties, and one-fourth the hundreds,
and excluding the thousands and five
thousands altogether, the currency
would be inflated to the extent of one
fifth the amount of the two year notes,
one-third of the compound interest notes
and one-fifth the seven and three-tenth
notes outstanding at any one period; !;
but even this estimate should not be
admitted in the case of the compound
interest and one and two year notes
after June 30, 1866, as they had ceased
to circulate at all after that date.
Only three and one-half million dol
lars of the latter were then outstanding,
and on each note of the former from
nine to twenty-one months interest had
accumulated.
To recapitulate; Of these denomina-
tions outstanding | estimate the follow
ing amountSentered the circulation:
