shreMdness and Ability.

Hop Btters, so freely advertised in
all the papers, secular and religious, are
having large sale, and are supplant-
ing all other medicines. There is no
denying. the virtues of the Hop plant,
and the proprletors of these Bitters
have shown great shrewdness and
ability In compounding Bitters, whose
virtues are so palpable to every ones
observation. Exchange.

SPEAK NO ILL.

Nav speak no ill-a kindly word
Can mover leave sting behind,
And, oh TO breath each tale we've heard,
Is lar beneath noble mind.
Full oft better seed is sown
BY choosing thus the kinder plan
For il but little good be known,
Still let us speak the best we can.
Give us the heart that fain would hide
Would fain Another's faults efface
How can it please cen human pride
To prove humanity but base
No let US each higher mood,
A nobler sentiment of man
Be earnest in the search of good,
And speak Of all, the best We oan.
Then speak no i'll, but lenient be,
To others failings as your own
II you're the first fault to see,
Be not the first to make it known.
For life is but passing day,
No lip may tell how brief its span
Then, oh the little time we stay,
Let's speak Of all the best we can,

THE TIGER.

His whole frame is put together to
effect destruction. In cutting up the
tiger you are impressed with this.
His tendOns are masses of nerve and
muscle as hard as steel. The muacu-
Jar development is tremendous. Vast
bands and layers Of muscle ove}lay
each other. Strong ligaments, Which
you can scarcely cut through, And
which soon blunt the slarpest knife,
unite the solid, free-playing, loosely
.jointcd bones. The muzzle is broad
and sharp and obtuse. The claws arc
completely retractile. The jaws are
short. There are two false molhrs,
two grinders above and the 81 Ame
number below. The upper carnivo-
rous tooth has three lobes and an OBJ
tuSe heel; the lower has two lobes,
pointed and sharp, and no h leel.
There is one very small tuberculp GUS
tooth above as an auxiliary, and then
the strong back teeth. The mus tles
Of the jaw are Of tremendous power.
l have come across the remains bfa
buffalo killed by tiger, and found
all the large bones, even the big
strong bones Of the pelvis and arge
joints, cracked and crunched like SO
many walnuts by the powerful jaws
of the fierce brute. The eye is pc dcu-
liarly brilliant, and when glaring with
fury, it is truly demoniac. With his
bristles rigid, the snarling lips drd dwn
back, disclosing the formidable fangs
the body crouching for his spring, and
the 1.-the tail puffed up and swol len,
and lashing restlessly from side to
side, each muscle tense and strq Ing,
and an undulating movement perdep-
tible like the motions Of a huge snake,
crouching tiger is a sight that
strikes a certain chill to the heart of
the OnloOker. When he bounds for
ward, with a roar that rcverberates
among the may labyrinths of the in
terminable jungle, he tests the ST. lad
lest nerve and almost daunts the
brayest heart.

HOW GREAT MEN WORK.

Some authors have rapidly sketclled
the plan Of their intended work Asst,
and have reserved their plans for fll-
ing out the details. The great French
novelist, Balzac, followed this method.
He sent off to the printer the skeleton
Of the intended romance, leaving
pages Of blank paper between for
conversation, descriptions, etc., and
as soon as that was struck of he shut
himself up in bis study, ate and drank
nothing but bread and water till he
had filed up the blank spaces, and in
this way completed his book. Gbd-
win wrote his "Caleb Williams back
wards beginning, that is to say, with
the last chapter and working on to
the first. Richardson produced his
ponderous novels by painfully elab-
Grating different portions at different
times. Burton, the author Of carat
omy Of Melancholy" the great schol-
ars Barthius and Turnebus; Butler,
the author Of "Hudibras;" Locke,
Fuller, the witty divine; Bishop
Horne, Warburton, Hurd, and many
others kept commonplace books,
which may account for the copib bus
and opposite illustrations which enrich
their volumes. Sheridan and Hook
were always on the alert for bits Of
brilliant conversations and stray
jokes, which they took good care to
jot down in their pocket books for qse.
The great Bentley always bought ddi-
tions Of classical authors with very
broad margins, and put down the 3D.
servations which might occur to him
in the course Of his reading-which is
the secret of his lavish eruditiOn.
Pope scribbled down stray thoughts
for future use whenever they struck
him-at dinner table, in an open car.
riage, athistoilet, andin bed. Hogarth
would sketch on his finger nail any
face that struck him, hence the mar
velous diversityoffeature in his infinite
galleries Of portraits. Swift would lie
in bed in the morning, "thinking of
wit for the day )" and Theodore Hook
generally "made up his impromptus
the day before" Washington Irving
was fond Of taking his portfolio out
into the fields, and laboriously ma
nipulating his graceful periods wi lille
swinging on a style. Wordswd drth
De Quincey did the same. 1t would
be easy to multiply instances Of the
pain and labor expended on com po-
sitions which, to appearance, bear no
traces of such effort.
Louisiana capitolian., 1879-06-14

heard. l did not direct any of my
men against his house l found
another game to play-and won it.
Such condolences are not accidental,
Mary there must be a Providence to
direct them--even l, a professional
and scientific robber, can recognize
it. Had | not done SO, many times, I
never should have had the heart to
save you, even knowing your danger"
'Tbelieve it, George" said the lady,
her eyes now filled with tears. There
was such frank earnestness in his
manner, 80 much unreserved and de-
fiant disregard for the opinions Of all
others in his words, as if he spoke
them because they were true, whether
believed or not, that she was forced
to credit them, and to weep over the
the suggestions and memories they
called up.
"Nay, madame, do not weep there
is no need" said he, coldly. ~ would
not say anything, not even a plain
truth, that might wound your feel
ings too severely. For indeed / still
respect you as a lady how could do
otherwise But my life and nature
are changed; l an not what was.
My friendship is light without heat.
Mary, ! was better man than him
you welded! You have left me but
the luxury of a naughty grief"
After saying these words, with a
bitterness which seemed to blast in
her mind any possible lingering recol-
lection of his former self, he looked
suddenly at the window, as if alarm
ed. She turned to look also, and
when she turned again he was gone.
He had disappeared like shadow,
and was never seen by her again.
She walked down stairs, found the
door open and returned home.
And after the revelations of that
day, "Mrs. Percival," that was Mary
Seymour, would never counsel CO.
quetry in her female friends. She
kept inviolable, while she lived, the
oath she had taken; and when, some
years later, she received a letter from
the South, saying that George Flood
was dead, she wept as she had not
wept for the loss of her husband-she
had welded the wrong man.

1.-UNEXpECTED DISCOVERIES.
CHANDOS H. MELVILLE.

1.-UNEXPECTED DISCOVERIES.
About 9 o'clock on a dark autumn
night a young man stepped quietly
away from one of the rear windows
of a rich country residence in the
upper part of Manhattan Island, where
he had spent half an hour listening to
a soliloquy in the room within. On
reaching the high road he met com
rade with two good horses, and they
mounted instantly and rode rapidly
toward the lower part of ahe city.
His companion asked someq questions,
to which the leader made no reply,
but continued to refeat, in an under
tone, as if to himself:
"He is fool the most foolish fool
| ever met ever met in my expert
ence.n
"Who is a fool ~ asked the COM
rade, impatiently.
"Not you, Charley, but that wretch
have seen tonight. He is one of
the incorTigible, wicked fools-one of
the dangerous fools-s0 idiotic that
he talks his cursed projects in his
fancied solitude, as if the ears Of Gods
creatures were not omnipresent like
Himself"
He entered his elegant room in one
of the Broadway hotels, and continued
for some time to pace up and down,
muttering incohent words to himself.
Well dressed, tall and muscular,
with wavy yellow hair, full beard,
deep blue eyes and handsome fea-
lures, he possessed that interesting
external appearance which belongs to
so many persons of whose hearts we
can know nothing. He was alone,
and spoke his soliloquy aloud, be-
cause he well knew that nothing
could be extOrted from his words of
which a lawyer could take hold.
81 WILL" he resumed, in low tones,
after carefully examining his room
for possible listeners, 81 will make

clouded consciencc--with the light of
eternity. | will meet him where the
armed archangel met old Lucifer-on
the threshold of his Internal crime.
Knowing the plot, | can better lay
the counterplot.'
He threw himself on his bed, and
presently the tolling of the church
bells fell upon his ear.
''Ha !" he exclaimed, III whisper
eleven o'clock so soon; two hours
more-only two short hours the
immaculate God, and the dim shadow
of his justice in human conscience,
will approve the deed. Alas that
human sacrifice should be necessary
to every success by sacrificing the
poor; monaIchs, by marching over
human hearts to a throne, and the
laws maintain their sway by offering
a constant train of victims on the
black altar-the scaffOld. And it is
the same in every human system, if

THE PRESS AND THE DEBT ORDI
NANCE.
[Shrereport Telegram. ]

Our neighbor, the Times, this morn
ing published a lengthy special tele-
graphic dispatch containing the sub
stance of an editorial from the New
Orleans Democrat, which, with its
usual vigor, denounces the majority
report of the Committee on the State
Debt, and calls its provisions by all
the hard names we have been accus-
toned to see in the columns of those
city papers which, according to the
Democrat, are run in the interest of
the rings, monopolies and bondhold-
ers which infest the city of New Or
laans. A private dispatch informs us
that the Natchitoches Vindicator will
do the same thing. When it is re-
membered that these two papers have
done more than any others in the
State to "whoop up" public opinion
in opposition to the payment of the
fraudulent debit" as they first chris
tened it, it is rather cool in them to
expect to divert the opinion of either
the people or the members of the
Convention into a different channel.
But we are always slow to accuse
men Of regeneration or to denounce
them for changing their opinions, as
all men certainly have Il right to do
The papers, for all we know, may
lave changed hands. The New Or
leans papers have recently been dis.
cussing the question Of "impersonal
journalism and have come to the
conclusion that it makes no difference
to the people who writes articles for q
paper or who is responsible for them
We accept their decision SO far as
they arc concerned, and hope that the
responsibility for their present absurd
position on vital subject rests only
with SO much paper and ink as il
takes to print it, and not with any
intelligent citizens whose opinions the
people have been accustomed to re.
spcct.
TO the members of the Convention
we say that, whether or not the press
may be on both sides of this question
on one side, or on neither side, the
people arc with the majority of the
Committee and expect the Convention
to stand firm. The New Orleans
press invited the delegates to 60 tc
New Orleans to get informed as to the
wishes of the holders of the fraudulent
debt. While some who soundly de,
nounced the suggestion at first, have
fallen in with the bOndhOlders' ideas
the people do not expect any Of theil
delegates to betray their constituents
Oh the most important question they
have to pass upon.

The IndianI Revolt at Camp Robin,
hOn.

| A dispatch from Fort Robinson, Nrb.
Jan. II, says: Fifty Cheyenne savage'
are still at large, having escaped from
their stronghold among the bluffs last
night when the troops had corralled
them. Their trail was followed this
morning, going northwest. The ad'
vance guard of troops were fired upon
by a party Of savages at noon to day,
who were doubtless covering the re-
treat of the main band. Corporal Ore,
company A, second cavalry, was killed
The other members OF the guard seeing
their leader falling dead from his horse,
shot through the heart, Immediately
charged on the Indians, who were con
cealed in rife pit near the top of
ridge. In the charge the guard killed
one Indian and wounded another. The
remaining Indians escaped through q
heavy timber. At four this evening
the troops had got up with the savages,
who surprised the troops, firing q volley
into their midst, wounding private
Hunter, company G, Sd cavalry, in the
right shoulder. The savages were en-
tr-Dchrd in the ted Of small stream
The troops kept up continuous fre IN
the direction where the savages were
supposed % be until dark, when the
firing was discontinued until morning.
Two more companies of the third
cavalry, commanded by Major Vroom,
have left for the scene of hostllitieS,

The committ.. of No. 9 were given

DR.. Grimshaw offered resolution
providing for the appointment of conf
mittee of three, to examine the course
of study in use in the pubic schools of
this city and report to the Board what
change, if any, may bs useful.
The resolution was adopted and the
committee appointed were Messrs.Grim-
shaw, Baird and Grubb.
On Motion, Mr.. Speakman was au-
thorized to sign checks, i'll place OF Mr..
Simpson who is sick; Mr.. Simpson was
authorized to sign instead OF the Treas
urer who has been suffering from con-
tnued illness.
On motion of Mr.. Baird the Chairman
of the Finance Committee was appointed
to lay the accounts Of the Board before
City Council as required by charter.
Mr.. Baird's amendment to the by
laws reducing the salary of the Super
intepdent Of Public Schools from $l,-
500 to 81 500, was next considered.
Mr.. Lally moved to amend Ivy reduc-
ing the amount to 81 500, and stated
that he understood the Superintendent
was willing to serve for this sum in
these hard times.
Dr.. Grimshaw stated that this reduc
ton did not refer to the present super
intendent.
Mr.. Speakman thought 81, GOO was
little enough. There has been great
revival in the educational interest.
You have driven ont your private acad-
emips, and your people are sustaining
the schools.
Col. lIeisler was strongly in favor of
the amendment to 81 500. He believ-
ed they could get that ability which is
sufficient to carry the schools to the
highest elevation. He firmly believed
it was not the question of salary but
ability comes i'll.
Mr.. Baird inquired of Mr.. lIeisler,
whether he knew of other cities, the
same size as our own paying larger sal
