Said He Had Seen Better Days.

A sad-eyed, coal-stained son of sor-
row tumbled into Pultzer's Office the
other day, with breath like the trail of
pestilence, and said he had just ar
rived from Louisville, in destitute cir
cumstances.

cigar.

man sadly.

The man removed the limp, gutter
stained fragment that sheltered his head,
and exposed a mass of tangled, matted
hair.

itor, sternly.

"Was it ever clipped close to the

man, with hollow sound. way down in
his chest, that did duty for a sigh.
"Well, what was it for?" inquired
Pulitzer.

New York Statistics.

A recent assessment of taxables in
New York city shows decline of 80, 600
as compared with last year, and a marked
decline even as compared with the list
of 1875, when there was no Presidential
excitement. The total assessment is
some 80, 900 less than in Philadelphia,
Basing upon this calculation as to the
population of the city, it is believe d
at this time it would show considerably
less than a million, notwithstanding the
addition of apart of Westminster county to
the city. New York city always shows
in the strongest possible light the effects
of national prosperity and national affiic-
ton. 1t is true thpt the remarkable ac-
tivity of the fall trade started there, and
appeared from the reports to be greatest
in that quarter. But the effects of the
four years of revulsion in that city must
have been far beyond all current re-
ports. The work of the wreckers was
most thorough there, and the disastrous
results among savings banks, insurance
companies and mercantile concerns have
been calculated to make alarm perman-
ent. A recent official list of insolvents
shows frightful proportion of losses.
and such has been the depreciation OF
real estate that mortgages have ceased
to be preferred investments, and loans
upon them are difficult to negotiate.
The vast import trade that once rendered
New York so mighty an emporium of
commerce has sadly decayed, and nearly
every branch of her traffic has been
terribly injured by wild speculation,
crazy imitation, the enormous cost OF
production and the expense of business.
As the foreign immigration since 1873
has become quite small the proportion
of unnaturalized aliens remaining in the
city must be very much reduced, for the
evidences agree in showing that of the
entire population of the city the proper.
ton of the natives of the republic is in.
creasing, in consequence of the diffusion
OF the foreign population through the
New England, Middle, and Western
States. 1t is proper to say that the city
OF Brooklyn shows the same condition Of
things as New York, and that the decline
in her population indicated by the fall
ing off in the list OF taxables is very
marked.

A Giant Devil.Fish.

Since the capture at Catalina, Trinity
bay, of the gigantic cephalopod which is
now attracting crowds to view it in the
New York Aquarium, another has been
cast ashore, of still larger dimensions, at
Lance cove, Smith sound, about twenty
miles farther up Trinity bay than the
locality where the former was taken.
During high tide and high inshore
wind. another of those gigantic squids
was borne ashore at the locality named,
and grounded on a shingly beach. Is
its desperate efforts to escape, it used its
syphon or funnel 80 forcibly that the
stream of water pouring from it plowed
UP trench on the beach thirty feet in
length and of considerable depth. Soon
the retiring tide left it high on the
beach. Mr.. John Duffett, resident of
the place, was among those who collect.
ed to view the monster, and he carefully
measured the arms and body. The long
tentacles hefound to be thirty-three feet
in length, being three feet longer than
the Catalina specimen; and the body
eleven feet, or one foot longer than that
of the former. He did not measure the
shorter arms, but estimates them al
thirteen feet, and describes them as be-
ing of enormous thickness at the shoul
der. 1t was helargest specimen yet OLD.

of these monsters, except as manure OF
dogs meat, and he put his few quintali

strand or be washed back into the sea.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
are making strong efforts to suppress
the tramp nuisance on the line of their
road. They have provided four prison
cars, which have been placed at differ.
ent points on the road, and recommend
that the local associations give such aid
as may be in their power to the officers
of the railroad company.

THE LITTLE FOLKS.
The Shepherd-Boy.

The Shepherd boy.
Little Roy led bis sheep down t. pasture,
And his COWS, by the side of the brook
But his COWS never drank any water,
And his sheep never needed a crook.
For the pasture was gay as a garden,
And II glowed with nowery red;
But the meadows had never a grass-blade,
And the brooklet--it slept in its bed;
And 1t lay without sparkle or murmur,
Nor reflected the blue of the skies.
But the music was made by the shepherd,
And the sparkle was ali in his eyes,
Oh, he sang like a bird In the summer
And, IL sometimes you fancied bleat,
That, too, was the voice of the shepherd,
And not of the lambs at his feet
And the glossy brown COWS were gentle
That they moved at the touch OF his hand
Der the wonderful rosy-rt meadow,
And they stood at his word of command
SO ne led ali his sheep to the PASTURE
And his co rs, by the side OF the brook
Though Il rained, yet the rain never battered
Ger the beautiful way that they took.
And it wasn't in Fairy-land either,
But house in a commonplace town,
Where Roy a. he looked from the window,
Saw the silvery drops trlcke down.
For his pasture was only a table,
With it's cover 80 nowery fair,
And his brooklet was just green ribbon
That his sister had lost from her hair.
And his cows they were glossy horse-chestnuts,
That had grown on his grandfather's tree;
And his sheep they were snowy-white pebbles
He had brought from the shore by the sea.
And at length, when the shepherd was weary,
And had taken his milk and his bread,
And his mother had kissed him and tucked him,
And had bid him goodnight" in his bed,
Then there entered his big brother Walter.
While the shepherd was soundly asleep,
And he cut up the COWS into baskets,
And 10 jack-stones turned all of the sheep.

All their disasters have taught the Repub
licans Of the South nothing: they are still the
same, with the same old tricks, of which we
learned 80 much from '68 to '76. In South
Carolina they have Of late attempted to re-
surrect their party. A Republican meeting
was held at Aiken q few days ago. Not q
white man was present, the carpet-baggers
having mostly fled the State The negroes soon
found the advantages Of carpet-baggers; 1T
was scarcely possible for them to organize
the meeting. When the meeting was finally
got under way. and the question of electing
candidates came up, the negroes were greatly
worried how to do it. Some one suggested
that every person present should vote for the
candidates by ballot, and to avoid anything
like eoercin1, U G@atation or bulldozing, every
voter should write out his own ticket
{. It ~ impossible to imagine the panic that
this suggestion created, throwing, as it did,
the whole election into the hands Of two or
three "literary cusses" who knew how to
write. This proposition was, Of course, voted
down almost unanimously. Another plan,
which was tried was to allow each voter to
come up and express his preference uiva uoce,
but as this allowed free field to repeaters, it
was ruled out. After several vain attempts
to get the matter right, in the style In which
the carpet-baggers used to do it, the meeting
gave 1t up, and the president took the occa-
sion to declare his friends nominated which
was about as near the carpet~bag way OF al
ranging the dilemma as possible.
The New Orleans daily Democrat., 1878-08-01

some months ago the newspapers an
nounced that We were to be treated on the
fifteenth CT June to b strike similar TO that Of
last summer. This story and the date fixed
upon were evidently the creation Of some
newspaper reporter, anxious to create sensa-
bion. When the time came around the ab-
surdity of this story became at once appa-
rent the panic which 1t created subsidized, and
aIl rumors Of strikes were disbelsved. Taking
advantage of the success Of this sensation
for 1t was successful in creating an excite
ment and panic, as proposed some scrib-
bier has prophesied another strike, to be
much more serious and threatening than
that fixed for June Is. The newspapers
have already written up this strike-it
ID to come off August 15--in grand and
glowing style. It Is to be general rising
Of the oppressed laboring classes against
capital over the whole country, to be directed
chiefly against the banks, which are to be
broken open and gutted, their deposits to be
divided among the suffering poor. Sensa-
tional stories have been written up Of labor
leagues, composed OF thousands Of earnest
men pledged to this and TO all kinds Of acts
ct violence and robbery.
The first strike, that Of June 15 had the
effect Of putting the various States and muni-
eipalities Of the North and West to o heavy
expense In preparing for It,. The present
promised. strike seems to have had exactly
the contrary effect. 1t has been advertised
far and wide, but few persons believe it, and
no city is preparing for the promised rising.
On the other hand, 1t is having q bad effect on
the disorderly elements of Northern and
Western cities; not that these men had made
any preparations for the strike, or had any
idea of 1t, but seeing the same story con-
sstantly repeated In the papers, they have be-
gun to believe that there is some truth In it;
to suppose that there is really going TO be O
rising or trouble Of some kind, and that this
Is most favorable opportunity for them to
create o. disturbance.
Thus the Washington laborels, who broke
out into @ riot few days ago, when quelled
by the police and troops, announced that they
would try 1T again August Is. Evidently
these men had read in some paper that this
day was the one fixed for the grand strike,
and believing, as the newspapers declared,
that there would be riots elsewhere, thought
the occasion a good one for q "defnonstra-
tion.'' In several other cities similar threats
have occurred, and troubles and disorders
on the day fixed for this strike are not at
all impossible. II there is riot anywhere
the sensational newspapers will be directly
responsible for it. Nor will it be the first
time that q newspaper prediction Of trouble
has produced the troubles 1t prophesied.
