Hon. J. II. Steward, of St. P.ul, has
long account of his recent trip. We
extract the following:
AT nearly every place he visited on
his tour. and especially III California,
Dr. Stewart met u great many Mime
sotlans who had eMiylated there in
hope Of bettering tn ir conditicn
Most Of them he found in Il slate of
desperate p"verty and lamentin. the
day when Satan tempted them to leave
MINNESOTA. Some few lie found dong
toler;.bly we'll. But all united in say
ing that ii they ever get back to Mill
nes"ta they would never leave it again.
and in testifying that the idea that
California or any of those Pacific States
were good places to enligrate to was II
delusion and snare. All bitterly re-
Pente'l their own mistake, in leaving
the beautiful climate and social and
domestic comforts and tile conditions
Of prosperous industry il, farm and
workshops existing III Minnesota for
that arid region where there is rain on
~ two months in the year and the rest
OF the year is parci,ed with droutll.
The doctor is emphatic in expressing
his opinion that l6O acres of land in
Minnesota is worth more than the
whole region from tie Rocky Noun
tains to the Pacific coast,. rs far as SOL
ii comfort goes. There are few rich
men there, but the great bulk of the
population is miserably poor

WOOL GROWING.

What shall we do if the hoppers
hatch out III great numbers over this
country again next year us some think
they will? This question is often asked
and l think may be answered so as to
c nvince tie doubling and deslonding
that there is good ground for en"our-
agement> 1t is to be hoped one lesson
will be learned All least after SO many
forcible examples almost compellingtlt-
ten;ion: That there is growing every
year and going to waste ! crop of grass
i" Mobiles county if properly saved and
converted into wool and mutton would
give il respectable fortune to every ill.,
habitent of the county. 1t is estimat-
I'll that every acre of land in Mobiles
county i'll its natural condition would
keep three sheep the year round. At il
moderate estimate even in these times
of low prices, there ought to he All av-
erage income Ut 81 il head. There are
about 46O,0 acres in the county.
Now, suppose one and one half sheep
are Kept on the acre, We have an in.
come of $3 per acre and an aggregation
Of 81 ,3SO, ,OOO coming into the pockets OF
the farmers of Mobiles county every
year. And this the proceeds of IL crop
growing and going to waste, and is
sure to grow in spite Of lloppers and in
defiance of all storm of wind and hail.
The money required to break and thor
oughIy subdue an acre Of this prairie,
will cut and save the crop OF grass
growing on the Same four years. and if
the amount our people have invested in
farm machinery raising wheat and
breaking and fighting grass and weeds
had been invested in sheep this county
might now be fully stocked with sheep
and the people out Of debt, with clear
annual income Of Il million and IL quar-
ter of money to be used as tlfey may

Various Paragraphs.

It's a wicked world. Even the Gulf
Stream has gone astray.
Is it proper to refer to the Butler
clubs as the Widows crews.
Men of weak, selfish natures are
more apt to secretely hate friend
than an acknowledged enemy.
Consistency may be a jewel, as
writer's assert, but celluioid seems to
be taking the place of it very fast out
this way.
yesuvius has opened up new
crater and gone into the spouting
business again. 1t makes more noise
than Kearney. and is far more intelli-
gent.
None but a mother, tender and
loving of heart, who has just traded
her husbands s27 overcoat for a
sixty-five cent image OF Samuel at
Prayer" can realize the Congress
mans love for his country.
"Do you love me still?" Mrs. Brown
asked, as her husband was attempt
ing to write an important letter.
do you love me still?" yes, do"
said Brown; and it was the emphasis
that broke her heart.
The woman who doesn't put up any
fruit this fall will miss the torture
that some women will experience
about Christmas time, when they
open jar after jar only to find every
one spoiled.
Even Abe Hewitt says it makes his
heart stand still when he saw Mr..
Thurman halfway through his SOM
ersault. uncertain whether he would
light on his back in the sawdust, or
fall with his head on the end OF the
spring-board.
A correspondent writes to inquire
IL il is the custom in France to use
ice in the amputation OF limbs. As
we have been accustomed to having
our amputations effected in Switzer-
land and Germany, we can give no
authentic reply.
1t Is not good for man TO be alone
under any circumstances. but when
he falls in a ten-foot cellar on his
way home at o'clock in the morn

OF even a stepladder would add won
derfully to the comfort of the occa-

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

DAM in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and il
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss of appe-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen.
eral are cosuve, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally considerable loss of men,
DRY, accompanied with a painful sem
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of prickly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several Of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
