THE LAGOON. Latin poet Vir-
gil has drawn vivid picture OF one of
the scenes which FASTENED the fall of an
cient Troy. The noble Trojan priest,
LAGOON, denounced the infatuation Of
his countrymen, when they determined
to receive the monstrous wooden horse,
stuffed with Greek troops and princes,
into the city. He tried every means to
rouse his countrymen to sense OF theiI
peril, and at last hurled his spear against
the hollow fraud. But lest his passion
might be effective, the hostile gods thai
helped the Greeks sent two serpents ovei
the sea from Tenedos, with crests drop
ping blood and quivering tongues that
licked their Kissing mouths. They made
their way in the city at once to Laocoon
and his sons, wound themselves in fright
full festoons around their limbs, bound
them in group of agony which sculp-
ture has made immortal, crushed and
strangled them, and reared their crests
and poisonous tongues over the brow OF
the patriotic priest, whose chaplet was
black with their poison and red with lis
own death

The Art of Listening.

The art of listening is delicate and
difficult art, and one that is seldom prac-
ticed. 1t is delicate because it demands,
if not sympathy, a show of sympathy,
and continuous attention. rs well as M
air of interest. 1t is difficult because
self a. sertion is natural, and state Of
passiveness without manifestation of
WEAKNESS is irksome tn maintain. On
account of its delicacy and difficulty, not
less than from want of knowing how to
manage it, it is the rare art in society.
The few listeners that understand listen.
ing are invariably liked, even admired,
and not unfrequently charm the takers
TO VIII, they give ear. The ce l's'en-
er is pretty sure to get name for intel
lect, culture, wit, readiness-ior any sort
of quality, indeed, which he or she does
not reveal and may not possess. The
person fond of talking usually endows
the person who listens with whatever at
tributes he thinks he has himself; and his
good opinion of the listener grows stead
ily, until sometimes it amounts to posi-
tive worship. 1t is not enough to listen
merely in negative manner, for this APP
pears like resignation, like silent suffer
Jog, like accomplishing martyrdom, and,
besides, may he mistaken for stupidity,
which is fatal to the listeners hope and
object. One may be rs stupid as an owl
in society, but his listeners must disguise
his stupidity if they would be accepted ;
and, above all, never indicate or hint to
anybody else that the speaker has any
possibility of stupidity. We can be dull
ness and commonplace itself with impu-
nifty, provided We seem to think well of
our acquaintances.--Harp Basar.

NEXT to wine, cider is the liquor most
consumed in France. but within the last
90 years the consumption has fallen from
AZ to 35 gallons per head annually. Its
use is now confined to the northwestern
departments. The consumption of beer
steadily increases, but it is almost entire
ly confined to the departments contigu-
Gus to Belgium. Experience has demon
stra.ed that white wines are much more
likely than red to act upon the nervous
system.

How TO CHOOSE WIFE.-That
young lady will make good wife who
does not apologize when you find her at
work in the kitchen, but continues at

waterproof cloak, for l fear we shall
have rain storm" depend upon it, she
will make good wife. When daugh-
ter remarks, Another, l would not hire
help, for l can assist you to do all the
work in the Kitchen" set it down that
she will make somebody good wife.
When you hear u young lady say to her
father, Don't you purchase very ex-
pensive or snowy dress for me, but one
that will wear best" you may be sIre
che will make good wife.

COMPENSATION OF MOODY AND SANKE

CONFIRMATION OF MOODY AND SANKEY
The Burlington tVt) Free Press, of
Nov. 90, says: There is no secret, We
believe, certainly no reason why there
should be any, about the compensation
paid to the evangelists who labored in
Vermont last month. Messrs. Moody
and Sankey asked nothing for their ser
vices here. 1t has been said, and We sup
pose it to be true, that Il wealthy gentle
man in Chicago holds himself response
BILE for the support of Mr.. Moody's fam
lily and for his expenses, while he is en-
gagged in Gospel work. The Christian
people of Burlington, feeling that Mr.
Moody's visit here had been great puo-
lie blessing, and not desiring to be un-
der any obligation to any one III Chicago
or elsewhere, for pecuniary assistance III
such matter, made upa fund 10y sub
scripiion and handed MIR. Moody $500
for himself and Mr. Sankey. This was
lese than s. apiece for each of the ser
mons and public meetings held by them
here, but it was all Mr.. Moody would
accept. In Rutland, Major White and
Mr. and Mrs. McGrauahan were paid
$500 together, and in Bennington Messrs.
Needham and Cato received together
about $275."

A MAMMOTH SToCK.-For several days
past the sidewalk in front Of | A brahms
Store has been nearly blocked most the
time and cases OF goods extending far in
to the street. Several persons have been
engaged opening boxes, carrying goods
in to the store and marking and arrang-
ing them. In fact it has been generally
remarked about town that "Abrahms is
receiving larger stock this Fall than he
ever had before" 1t was his intention to
have given full description OF his nam
moth stock, together with list Of prices
of number of articles, in our advertis-
ing columns this week, but he has been
kept so busy receiving goods as to have
no time for anything else. He promises,
however to Ak us up an nd" in proper
ton to the stock, for our next issue, and
we look for something very extensive
Meantime all are advised to go to
Abrams Store and inspect the many
new and fashionable articles he has re-
ceived. Another important matter, we
had almost forgotten, is that Mr..
Abrshms desires everybody to know that
he is selling Dry Goods and Clothing,
Boots and Shoes, and everything else IN
his line at lower prices than have ever be-
fore been known here. "Cheap" is his
motto, and he intends to make it win .

AN APPRECIATED VIsIT.-Last week
Mrs. Annie Douglas, Grand Worthy
Matron, Order Of the Eastern Star, paid
an official visit to St. Johns Chapter No.
ii, at this place, on Friday evening. As
we learn from members Of that Order in
attendance, the visit was most acceptable,
highly appreciated by all present, and
cannot but be OF benefit to the Lodge, Of
the working OF which she spoke in tones
of praise. In addition to her high posi-
ton in the Masonic Order, Mrs. Douglas
is the first Lady Past Grand known to
American Odd Fellowship, having served
as pres iding officer of Templsr Rsbekah
Degree Lodge. No. IT, |. 0. O. F., OF
San f Franc isco, during the term COM
mencing Jan. 1st., 1873. In view of this
fact, mem ers of Evening Star, r. D..
Lodge, held special meeting ON Satur-
day evening and Mrs. Douglas visited the
Lodge, giving valuable instructions in
the work and lectures Of the Degree,
which she was fully competent to do.
Both Lodges were very well pleased with
her visit here ard earnestly hope to have
Sister Douglass meet with them sgain in

HOME NEW y.

FKEIaHT.-Ths Reading Independent
Of last week published list Of teams
which had been loaded there during the
week with merchandise for Siskyou,
Trinity and part of Shasta county
Those for Weavervila ontnumbered all
the others. 1t is really wonder what
becomes of all the goods which come to
this county, bat they must be sold and
paid for, as the credit OF Trinity county
merchants is A, No. 1, all over the Coast.
Scarcely day passes but one or more
teams are unloaded for John Martin,
Henry Junkans or Max Lang, who are
our heaviest shippers, and at this season
Of the year other traders who deal in
wares OF less weight, ara receiving large
invoices. In conversation with John
Martin who lie thoroughly cenversant
with freighting matters of this section,
being connected Herewith for more than
twenty years, we asked his estimate on
the amount Of freight hauled to this place
annually. In round numbers, no says,
there is nearly a million pounds Of -four
and an equal quantity of grain, bran,
shorts, etc., brought here every year, and
that there is fully as much other goods as
of all these, making u total closely APP
proximating four million pounds per
year. On this vast quantity, freight from
Reading is paid at the rate Of Ia cents
per pound for heavy and Ia for lighter
freight, at the lowest rates. Placing the
average rate at Ia cents, which is low,
we have on four million pounds tho snug
sum of $55, 600, paid by our merchants
every year for freight, and The Railroad,
forwarding and drayags charges will
bring the amount close up to 100000.
