A Cheerful view Of FiI.h.

To the Editor Of the Courler-Journal.l
There is a great deal of unnecessary
alarm about fever and filth. What can
be done, anyhow, in country so free
as ours? Every mans house is his
castle, and if he wants to make it q
pig-pen who shall invade it2 One OF
the rights of man Is to stink. At my
house we often have to arise in the
night ard burn paper to head off the
odor of some liberty-loving nejghbor.
But would we deprive that neighbor
of his heaven right? Never.
The ungrammatical handbills that are
deGantly thrust under our doors, or
thrown into our yards every day
should all be put to tho flames
rather than thst the tender
feelings of our fragrant neighbor
should be disturbed. We ara all
too much prejudiced against epidem
les. The harm they do is too much
exaggerated. We cannot expect to
enjoy our iavorite stenehes without
paying a little something for them,
and we are certain to die, epidemic or
no epidemic; so let us be calmer Tue
people who die are neYeF missed The
widows marry, the widowers find new
mates, the starveling steps into a
situation made vacant by some hero,
and the world goes ON as happy as ever.
The moths that fall from the lamp
the flies that drown in the gravy, tie
men who are swept away In epidemics,
cannot be missed, Memphis is diving
but Memphis is marrying. Let us be
hopeful, 1t is noble, in any event, to
die for sinking neighbor, and be-
sides, death may take him off too,

Prof. Richard A. Proctor, author of 5 Hand. book of the stzrs,v -Bordes Land of sc,. ence, etc, In the New Castle Chronicle eI May 10th, an English journal of great ner. 1t, tas the following tO say in regard lo the creating of inland seas:
 Two projects for inland seas inst now at. tract attention in twU widely separated re- gions One i5 the projec. advanced and aa- yocated by General Fremont, Governor os Arizona, in tbe United States. He ar. iirms that by the removal of barren ridge the waters of the Gulf of California could t'e removed into an ancient basin and create a nayagabie inland sea 900 miles long. J0 mlles broad ana 800 feet deep. lie claims that this piece of engineering would con vsrt region which is now perfectly desert into commercial highway, and would greatly improve the climate of Souther ATi- zonA and California The other proposi ton is of older date, but seems now likely to be seriously taken in hand It appears from the sounding operations pursued ua- der the guidance or Captain Roudsirc, there IS good reason for beiieyeing that an inte- rior Algerian Sea may be crealed, with ad- ysntages resembling these claimed l.y Governor Fremont for his California scneme.
 sseographsrs entertain grave fears that
 he elImaie of Europe would suffer if any large inland sea were formed in Northern Africa, and of course, the consideration that when the change has once been effected, a hundred times the labour expended in pro- ducing it would not suffice to restore mat ters 10 their former condition, renders 1t necessary that very careful inquiry should be made before the barriers at present in. tervening between the sea and Iow-lying deserts are broken away or thrown down. There is one circumstance which has not yet, so far as know, received much atten- tion-the possibility, namely, that the in- troduction of water into widely extending regions which have long been dry, may lead to intense subterranean disturbances in certain parts of the submerged districts.

The great Tiger mine, one of the hrst quartz mines of any importance, which wa: worked in this Eeighborhood. but in which has been dormant for several years, IS now just on the eve Of making dividends, The iedge is large, something like the Com stock, and the ore Is sad to be very rich. 4 new mIIl and reduction works have jus: been completed. and commenced pounding away on the argeniiferous rock last week; and new hoisting works, with capacity 10 sink 1 200 feet, have been in operation some time. It is the opinion of many that the mine will furnish sufficient ore to keep one hundred stamps running, and that it will pay $500 to s400 per ion. Owing 10 bad management the Peck mine Is not welding the amount of bullion it should, but we are hoping for some change.

Loco Weed a Myth.

A Verde stock raiser, of large experience cas discovered that the disease in horses com monly ascribed to the eating of rattle weed or what is known in Mexican plrlance a, ''loeo" (fooD weed, has its origin in an en tirely different source, and while loco weed is no doobi, to some extent, poisonous. Il nevertheless has no such effect as it i. charged with.
 Ills investigations have convinced him that the disease known as "locO," and winch seems to set horses crazy, or affects them as II attacked with blind staggers, arises i. om the presence of ticks in the animals ears. These are not the ordinary deer, wood or dog lick so common in brushy woou, but a smaller insect, resembling the above Tn shape, but when closely examined are found to be covered with sort of fnzz or fine fur. giting them a woody appearance. He has. on several occasions, taken quite hand full of these pests from the ears of horses supposed to be affected with loco. and always with beneficial results. Hisopinion is that with sN eet oil, mixed with carbolic acid, or some other vermin destroyer. poured into the animals ears before the insects have had time to eat through the drum of the ear, will prove an infalliable remedy for what is now so generally supposed to be the result of eating loco weed.
 One curious thing in connection with this gentleman's experience IS that the wild est horses, that will not, ordinsrily allow any one tO touch their ears, will, when af- fected with this disease, not only stand still and allow him 10 probe their cars, but seem to like it and hold their heads in po- sition as If inviting him to continue the operation.

TIE END OF TIE C.EsARs.-Wi,h tho death of DomItian closed the reign of the "twelve C.Esars," as denOminated in Rom. lsh history-they having ruled from E. c 5 to A. D. 9d, or 15i years. But three of the twelve died natural death, viz: Angus. tus, Eespasian and Titus. Julius Cesar was stabbed in the Roman Senate chamber; Ti- berius was smothered on a sick bed at the instlgation of Caligula; Caligula was mur- dered in his own palace; Claudia was poi soned by his favorite physician at the in- stgalion of hls own wife, Agrippina: Nero by tho aid of . servant, committed suicide to avoid a public execution; Galba was slain in the Roman forum by his own guard led on by the treaeherous Otho; 0tho com mItted suicide to escape, as he imagined, worse fate; Yitellius was dragged like a dog through tho streets of Rome and cast into the Fiber, and Domitian was killed in his own bed chamber by the same persons he had marked for execuiiOn--his owa wife being one of them. Rome under the rule of the Cgsars was apparently iu its height of power and fame. The whole of Europe and all of the northern portion of Asa and Africa were under its control, with perhaps the exception of few barbarons provinces. All save two who met with violent deaths richly deserved the fate which Deiell them, and the seed sOwn by these vile rulers ul- rimately terminated in the downfall and ruin of the Roman Empire. The study of the 'tEelve CWsars of Rome" will fqgniSh Ct lessons for men Co learn who uow have such a greed for power and renOwh.--Corr. Troy, \. r., Times.
