A New Dictionary.

The following are extracts from a new die
tionary which is announced by a Michigan
newspaper:
CONN. Printed paper; paper money; ire
deemable paper.
Eramp6-"T The United States solemnly
pledges its faith for the redemption of United
States notes in coin.'-Act0 of March Is, 1869.
This word was formerly used in the sense of
stamped metal having an intrinsic value and
issued by the Government as a guaranty of its
weight and purity; but in this sense it is now
obsolete. al the older authorities, as Webster,
Worcester, etc., are erroneous and misleading.
For example of the correct use of the word see
speeches of Willard, Field and other reformers.
CoN-V. t. To stamp, to print, to impress.
As to com paper money. [See authorities above
cited.
ErdmpieS-To coin newspapers; the lover
coined a kiss upon the lips of his betrothed; the
immense mill daily coins ten thousand yards of

feet.
CoNTINENTAL-n Currency formerly issued
on the greenback plan, based on the faith and
resources of the continent. The prototype of
the proposed coin. The best currency the
country has ever seen.
Erduple-" Not worth a continental"
MoNoPoLY-n. Anything in which all are
free to engage. 4 business open to all. The
National Banks of the United States are monopo-
lies. Farming, wood chopping, shoveling gravel,
etc, are monopolies.
Here again all the former standard authorities
are grossly misleading, giving the word a signi-
fcation exactly opposite to its true sense.
REsUNPTIoN-n. Robbery; confscation; su-
preme folly; madness; attempting impossibiIities.
As resumption of specie payments.
REsUME-v. t. To rob; to plumber; to con-

beyond ones means: speculation; investigating |
in Improbable enterprises.
Erampie-During the war our national pros
perty was unparalleled.

sugar-Makiug in the French West Indies.

A system of central factories has been adopted
within q few years in the French West India
islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, for the
manufacture of sugar. The system is a substi-
tute for the long-practiced method of making the
sugar by individuals upon the plantations where
the cane is produced. The design is to separate
agriculture from manufacture, and by a concen-
tration of capital, somewhat upon the co-operat-
i've system, to accomplish what the isolated
planter was unable to do. The experiment,
made upon a large scale during a series of years,
it is maintained. has fully demonstrated the
soundness of the principle. The central factories,
or usines, as they are called, are owned by joint
stock companies, by which the sugar-cane is
taken from the plantation and transported to the
mill upon railroads or tramways, constructed by

MURDER AT BENTON.

From the Inyo Independent Of the l0th.l
Trough private letter dated at Benton
on the 4th, we learn that John Lewis, a
highly respected citizen OF that place, was
literally cut to pieces by one Con. Casey,
on the previous evening. At the date Of
the writing nothing whatever was known
a to the cause Of the murder. 1t took
place in the street after dark, in front Of
Cresser's stable, but it seems no other per-
son was present or in sight at the time.
No less than ten stabs, any one Of them
fatal, we're inflicted upon Lewis, and he
was quite dead when few minutes later
the body was found. Casey, after finish
ing his bloody work, walked quietly down
the street, then back TO near where his vic
tim lay, after which nothing was seen Of
him for some two hours. The entire pop
ulation, nearly, turned out in active
search after securing every place in the
vicinity without avail, the slayer was
finally found sitting down ON the hillside
north OF town, but a few hundred yards
distant from the scene Of the murder.
Casey has offered no word of explanation
or defense, and unless he does 80 in man
ner to allay public feeling against him,
there is a very strong probability that we
will next hear Of his having been sum
marily lynched.

Horses Recovered.

The Salt Lake Tribune OF Saturday con-
taids the following: For several days
past Mr.. N. Nelson has advertised in the
Tribune reward OF S75 for the recovery
OF pair Of horses, and the thieves who
stole them from his ranch, near Spruce
mont Nevada. That advertisement did
the work pai TALLY, for the horses have been
found in Skull Valley, Toole county. 1t
seems that the pursuit was so hot that the
thieves we're forced to trade the stolen
horses off in exchange for two others Of
less value, and then made for the city,
where they put up in the tithing Office
yard. In this place they found a country
man from Nephi, camped for the night,
aud sold 10 him, for $35, the two horses
traded for in Skull valley, and the saddles
stolen from Mr.. Nelson, in Nevada. The
two thieves then sold one Of the stolen
blankets thoy had with them to a second
hand store here in town for 81, and yester-
day they could not be found. 1t is reason
able to believe, however, that they are yet
In this section OF country, and that they
will be insinuating themselves into some
farmers stable or pasture for fresh sup
ply OF horses. Look out for them, and let
them be roughly handled il they are
caught, for their kind is becoming so
numerous that they have ceased to be a
luxury in hoe. The light complexiened
one, who may be easily recognized by his
walk. was seen here yesterday, and 1t is
believed the two are tramping their way
through Emigrant Canyon. The reward
Of $50 for their capture stands good, and
will be paid by Mr.. Nelson to anyone who
may arrest them"

In the atmosphere experienced here during the
summer months, the lethargy produced by the heat
takes away the desire for wholesome food, and
frequent perspirations reduce bodily energy, par
ticularly those suffering from the effects of debi-
ting diseases. In order to keep natural health
fu activity of the system must resort to artlf-
cial means For this purpose schencks Sea Weed
Tonic Is very effectual A few doses will create an
appetite and give fresh vigor to the enervated body
For dyspepsia, 1t is invaluable. Many eminent
physicians have doubted whether dyspepsia can be
permanently cured By the drugs which gener-
ally employed for that purpose. The Sea Weed
Tonic in its nature is totally different from such
drugs 1t contain no corrosive minerals or acids;
u fact it assists the regular operations of nature
and supplies her deficiencies. The tonic in its na-
ture so much resembles the gastric juice that 1t is
almost identical with that fluid. The gastric juice
is the natural solvent which, in healthy condition
Of the body causes the food to be digested; and
