The Cold Wave.

From all along the Pacific Coast come accounts of unusually low temperature and storms both of wihd and rain;- the rainfall, in California has been very great, being reported at from two to seven inches at various places during two days.
 The cold wave reached Yuma on Wednesday, increasing in ia: tensity on Thursday. We have examined the records of the Signal Service here (wiIh the valuable aid of the -obliging off cer in charge) and ffnd that the registered velocity of the wind on the twenty fiurth was thirty six miles per hour, an unusual rate, as during our sand storms the speed rarely exceeds twenty six miles:
 The Barometer on Christmas morning stood higher than it has for several yea,s.

man. Did he follow her, and falling on

lover, and knock himself on the head
with the stock? Did he set himself up
for misanthrope or woman hater, or
institute a suit against some one for ever

The Acy to Success.
Penn Monthly |

One of Wellington's chief sources of
success was his thorough mastery of de-
tails. While in Spain he gave precise
directions how the soldiers should pre-
pare their food; in India, the miles per
day the bulocks should be driven that
were provided for the army. The equip
ments of his troops were cared for in all
their minutia. The same exactness he
introduced into his administration of
civil affairs. From his earliest school
days, in every transaction, this trait of
thoroughness appears. The confidence
and unfaltering devotion he thus inspired
unquestionably secured him his ms nv
and decisive victories.
No great commander leaves ANYTHING
to chance, but seeks to antir. lpate every
emergency G and to provide, for it. Gray
spent seven years perfect.lng his "Elegy,'
which you can readily read in seven
minutes. In to it ne generously poured
the very ripest scholarship, an intimate
acquaintance with the rules of rhythm
and an exhaustive study of the varied
excellences of English and Latin classics
! Every syllable was submitted to closest
scrutiny, the cadence of the verse wa'
suited to the character of the thought
every outline was vivid, every tint toned
every picture perfect, before he SUI
fered his poem to pass int
print. This palace of thought wa
no single nights work of slave
genii obeying the behest of one holdini
some magical lamp of Aladdin, but wa
built up like coral reef, particle by part
Gle. And this complete mastery OF detail
was secured only by the most protracte'
concentration Of effort. By resolutel
chaining his thought to his theme, con
pletely surrendering himself to its guic
ance, the inexorable laws of suggestio
irresistiby led him back through tn
pasts faded and forgotten scenes in tn
humble lives of the sleeping cottagel
until the scenery and personages Of ever
picture al last frightened and breathe
before his mental vision with all til
! sharply outlined vividness Of real life.

THE idea is frequently advanced, with
a fair show of reason, that there will be
honesty displayed by book-keepers, cash
iers, treasurers, and Others in responsible
positions, in proportion as their salaries
are of respectable dimensions. Pay them
literally and they will serve you hon.
estly, seems to be at first glance a fair
principle, yet it is really founded in dis
honesty as the facts in so many cases go
to show. In the first place it suggests a
premium upon honesty, when in fact the
relations between the trusted employe
and his employer, between the official
and the public, should always imply hon
esty and fair dealing without regard
to recompense. 1t is not even just
that man should be paid in
proportion to the responsibility of
his position, except as that po-
sition demands skill, ability or expert
ence. If it be discovered that public
officer or a bank clerk display disposi
tion to appropriate the funds that pass
through his hands, it is mistaken policy
to increase his salary with a view to de-
creasing his temptations. Dishonesty is
not overcome by such means. Many of
the salaries paid to savings bank and in
surance officials in the Eastern States are
absolutely princely, and in many cases
have no doubt been the means of leading
those men into course of living which
terminated in their downfall, for some of
the most remarkable instances of breach
of trust have been developed in those
very institutions.

long a prayer" The question has
thousands of times arisen in the minds
of church-goers and religious people:
"Does the efficacy of prayer depend upon
its diffusiveness or upon its concentra-

is one of those things that man at his

worst feels the efficacy of those simple,
short invocations for mercy and protec-
tion that he has learned from his dead

As A military man Gen. Sheridan is
accepted as very fair specimen of what
should constitute an American soldier OF
the first class. He is good average
fighter, and knows very well how to ad-
minister allopathic punishment to his
foes with only homeopathic handful of
troops. But Gen. Sheridan is rather dis
posed to ignore the civil power. The
exieencies of war sometimes seem to
Justify this, but there are no such posi-
BILE exigencies in time of peace as will
Justify military man in treating the
rivil authorities contemptuously. Gen.
Sheridan, however, thinks otherwise,
He says that the late judicial decision in
the case Of the Poncho Indians is absurd
and nonsensical, and that there will be
no change in the present plan of opera.

the army will continue to arrest indians

The decision thus overruled by Genera
Sheridan was rendered by a Fedora

eral should be easy on the judiciary O.
