Whatit Costs.

Niagara Falls is the grandest cataract
in the world. Half of it belongs to the
United States, yet it is not possible for
an American citizen even to look at the
falls unless he pays at least twenty-five
cents. WatKins Glen, New York, is a
wonderful chasm, wild and picturesque
but the free American citizen must pay
fifty cents to enter it.
1t is hard to fence in Mount Washing
ton, and it has not yet been accom-
plished, but as the fares are much higher
than the mountain, the free American
citizen may think he can save money by
walking to the top. He is mistaken.
He will have to pay eighty cents toll to
walk up.
The Au Sable chasm is gloomy and
grand, but it costs the American citizen
fifty cents to see it. The Flume at the
Franconia Notch is worth seeing-se seven
ty-fve cents worth. The whirlpool at
Niagara is sad and sombre, at least it
makes the free American feel SO when he
goes there with party of ladies-fifty
cents each. The Falls of Montmorency
are romantic, historical and beautiful
twenty five cents admission and fifty
cents toll. And thus it goes. i,
If American Spectators could only
erect wall along the sea coast so that
no one could see the ocean without paw
ing dollar, it is quite likely the free
American citizen would go to see it with
out a murmur and take his children if
they were allowed to go for half price.

Grand Catnedrals.

Notre Dame, the cathedral of Paris, is
the Oldest of all such structures, since the
foundation was laid more than seven cen
turtles ago, but nearly 200 years elapsed
before its completion. 1t is evident that
during the twelfth century ecclesiastical
architecture attained success which is
the more surprising when one considers
the general rudeness of the age. st.
Paul's, London, is one Of the later achieve
ments Of genius. It was begun in 1867
and was finished in SO years, which may
be considered very rapid work. ltstands
fifth in the proportion of size compared
with other structures Of the same charact-
er, whose dimensions may be given as
follows: st. Peters at Rome covers an
area of six acres. The cathedral at Flor
ence contains 2 ga acres, while that at
Milan is but little less in extent. The
cathedral at Cologne covers lie acres,
and st. Paul's is next in size and dignity,
and its area is more than two acres. The
cathedral at New York which was conse-
Grated lately was begun by Bishop
Hughes in 1858, and covers nearly an acre
and a half. It will seat $4,000 people.
The cost when finished will not BE less
than $4,000, 900, the four principal affairs
being each estimated at 100000.

The Way It Works.

The editor vas sitting in his sanctum
when a man, laboring under considerable
apparent excitement, walked in with the
paper in his hand, and pointing to a
small paragraph, read: "The genial Col.
Mumblechock thinks of taking an Eastern
journey soon. May he enjoy pleasant
trip is the wish of his many friends"
'sNow, sir!" said the excited man, II
am Col. Mumblechock, and have called
to enquire by what authority you make
tn is use Of my name in your paper?'
'sFirst time I ever saw it, replied the
the editor, glancing at the item, ''but
suppose 1t is all right. My local reporter
is quite enterprising in his pursuit Of
news
s'But | never gave him permission to
use my name in this manner persisted
the Colonel
Every likely" said TIE editor. But
you are going East, amt you?''
Certainly"
"And you havn't any objections to
your friends wishing you pleasant
trlp?'
"That is all right, but / don't want my
name in the paper, and in the future you
will oblige me by leaving it OUT"
"Of course" said the editor, eff you
desire it, and the Colonel bowed him
self stif1y out.
"John, said the editor to his Office boy,
follow that man and see where he goes,
and come back and report
John did as he was requested, and short
ly after reported that Col. Mumblechock
went to the counting room and bought
twenty five papers, which after marking
something in them, he ordered put in
wrappers, and was busy in directing them.
Cincinnati is chuck full of Col. Mum
blechocks. They profess to be highly
indignant if their names appear in some
trifing item wonder how the reporter
got hold Of it, and buster about terribly,
yet they are secretly delighted at seeing
their name in print, and invest heavily
in papers to send to friends. The only
way to really offend them is not to men
ton them at all.--Cin. Saturday Night.

REST.

There ,snaiaeth, therefore rest to the people Of
God"
God gave to man the earth, all fair and glow
ing,
Rich with sweet flowers and fruits, and lofty
trees
And grassy wales, their pleasant shades be-
slowing,
And thymy downs to greet the summer
breeze.
God gave to man the sky all star-bespangled
His diamond footprints on the purple height
Changeless in beauty, through their mize en-
tangled,
To guild the way worn wanderer Alright.
God gave to man his natures noble presence,
His stately form and heaven. directed soul,
His comprehensive mind and deathless essence,
And babe all things acknowledge his con-
troll
God gave to man his homes unbought atfec-
ton,
Where eyes of love his answering glance
may meet;
Blest in fruition of his hearts selection,
Gladly he homeward turns his weary feet.
God upon man all kindly gifts hath lavished,
Save one, the dearly sought for and the best
With fairest sights and sounds each sense hath
ravished,
Yet here in vain may man demand for rest
He finds it not in shady glades reposing,
He finds it not the starry heavens among;
Nor even when, his home around him closing,
He lists at sunset to his children's song
God keeps back rest alone, that the world
weary,
Fen though his cup high nantes to the
brim;
Or though his fate be desolate and dreary
May seek and find repose alone in Him!

solmnly, ''and / am not pretty enough to

Letty's eyes frightened, her cheeks
reddened, and little tongue was loosed at
once. Her travelling companion was social
and chatty, and the time feeted swiftly
away.
You are going?' she cried, as at a
lonely glenn inn, ovcrshadowed with sill
ver-stemmed birches, light chase drawn
by two milk white horses, was waiting.
II had reached the end of my journey, e
he said, courteously touching his fur cap.
Il have intended to keep on to the end of
the route, but | see they have sent to me
here. wish every success and happiness
in your new task of bear taming.''
And, as the chaise rolled away, Lefty
felt herself flushing deeply.
'sI'm afraid I've been talk ing too much"
thought Lefty; abut what is body to
do, shut up all day long in a stage-coach
with conversable gentlemany'' and the
rest Of Miss Mainwaring's journey was
just little tedious.
1t was dusk when they arrived at East
erham Hall-a snowy, chill dusk which
made the glow Of lights through scarlet
moreen curtains and the coral shine of
great wood fire in a stone-paved hall, as
seen through the half-opened door, most
delightful and welcome. Miss Electa, a
tall prim old lady, in snowy cap ribbons
and a brown satin dress, stood ready to
welcome her. And just behind her Lefty
saw tall gentleman, with two little
boys clinging about him.
This is my nephew Philip" the old la
dy said.
And Lefty felt as if the blood in her
veins was turning to fire as she recog-
nized her travelling companion of the day.
edo I look very much like. bear, Miss
Mainwaring?" he asked, Laughing, as she
stood trembling and tongue-tied before
him. "No; don't color. I promised
you to allow myself to become very tam
able. And you must not cry, either y

"There is nothing for you to cry for
'Why didn't. you tell me who you
were?" she asked, piteously.
Because you never asked me-
Lefty resolved within herself that she
would leave Easterham the very next day.
But she did not keep the resolution.
At the years end she had neither quar-
relied with Miss Electa nor Mr.. Easter
ham, and the little boys thought Miss
Lefty was perfection. So did their faith
er.
Lefty said he, s.the year for which
engaged you is over"
"Yes, she responded, softly.
"Will you stay another year? Will
you stay with me always, Letty!'
And SO, within the yellow shine of a
wedding ring, Lefty found herselfa pris-
oner forever at Ea sterham Hall.

Manure the Fruit Trees.

In ali the older States manure is as es-
sential for the best results in fruit grow
ing as it is for grain and grass. AS a rule,
the orchard is neglected; it is taken for
granted that the apple trees, after they are
once planted, will take care of themselves.
Some men think the orchard can bear a
crop of apples and hay annually, and no
matter if the orchard has seen no manure
for twelve or fifteen years. AS general
manure, within reach of all farmers, there
is nothing better than stable and yard
manure. A dressing of ten two-horse
loads of manure per acre every other year
will promote growth of wood and forma-
ton Of the fruit buds. Unleached ashes
are among the best and cheapest manures
for the orchard. A hundred bushels to
the acre every five or six years will pay
abundantly.
Mr.. r. S. Emory, a well-known fruit
grower Of Kent County, Md, in letter
upon this subject, just published, urges
upon pear growers 'sto feed the trees,'
Ssfor" he adds. from my own observation
eight orchards out of ten that I have seen
are suffering more for food than any other
one thing, and l do not know of any fruit
that will so handsomely remunerate for
liberal, mean not less than seventy-6ve
two-horse wagon loads of thoroughly rot
ted manure per acre, about every three
years, applied broad cast in October and
November and at once plowed under
In preparing the manure Lat first make
a heap or pile of it, using plaster freely
with every load as it is hauled to the pile.
A month or so after apply it to the or
chard, thoroughly mixing and pulveriz-
ing it as it is put in the wagon, and at
the same time discard any that is not
thoroughly rotted, believing such manure
to have tendency to blight the trees,
from an experimental fact, viz: About
four years ago, in manuring several acres
of trees, there was one load of coarse sta
bic manure spread without my knowledge
on some dwarf Bartlett's, and nearly ev-
cry one blighted badly the following June,
and / had to cut those trees to almost
nothing to save them, and they were the
only ones that did blight or have blight
ed since; therefore cannot help believ
ing the coarse manure had something to
do with the blighting. There are two
things absolutely necessary to be produc-
ed annually on all good pear trees, viz:
buds and wood. The latter cannot be
had without feeding Baltimore Ameri-
can.

CIRCUMsTANTIAL EVIDENCE OF
AN HEROIC DEATH.

The evidence collected upon the in
vestigation into the circumstances Of
young Prince NAroLEoN'S death has
been published and constitutes short
volume of very interesting and tragic
history.
The special object OF the inquiry was
10 determine whether the party which
accompanied the Prince was guilty OF
cowariice or voluntary abandonment Of
a comrade in danger. To say the least,
the evidence does not cNculpate the
escort from very unsoldierlike conduct.
The evidence establishes that the mis-
fortune happened the Prince in the
failure to mount his horse. After a
very short struggle with his fright
encd horse, he was thrown to the
ground by the tearing of his holster. He
was not trampled or injured by het
fall, for ne sprang up at once and ran
toward agully. He must have got over
the ground with wonderful speed, since
the Zulus, though famous for swiftneSs
of foot, did not Overtake him until he
had turned at bay, nor did they get
near enough to throw their light
assegais. Throughout his flight he
hoped that the troopers would stop at
the gully and cover his retreat. When
ne saw their craven backs as they
galloped up the slope beyond the rayine
ne knew that his hour had come. In that
moment he recognized instinctively the
claims OF his name, and wheeled
on his heel to die with his face to the
foe. 1t is reported that, by strange
irony Of fate, he carried sword which
had belonged to the great Napoleon.
II is known that he was splendid
sworlsman. Ii the Zulus approached
within reach of his weapon, there can
be no doubt that the Prince sold his life
dear. But the indications make it prob
able that he was slain by spear thrown
downward from the edge OF the gully.
In any event, he fell, sword in hand,
marked for soldiers grave by nine
teen honorable wounds, every one in
front. His back was untouched of spear,
save in two places, where the sharp
points had pierced him through and
through.

FEDERAL AUTHORITY OVER THE
STATES.

The debates OF the last Congress upon
the election laws necessarily revived
many of the old questions involved in
the doctrine of State Rights. These old
issues have been brought to the front
again, and will figure more or less prom
inently in the next campaign.
In an editorial article entitled, "What
did the war decide?" the New York
World very clearly sets forth the Demo-
cratic position heretofore and still main
tanned, as to the exercise OF Federal
authority over the States. Says the
World:
"The Southern States claimed in 1861
that any State could by pertinent acts
or laws take itself out OF the Union and
free itself of the common bond. Those
of the States which did not attempt to
secede denied and the Federal Govern
ment denied the existence OF any such
power or right, and insisted that Federal
laws acted not upon States or through
States but directly upon each and every
individual in the United States, so that
individuals could not escape the force
of such laws, under cover of the action
of state. il they remained i'll the cOun-
try. Hence the Federal Government
used an army and navy TO clear away
distractions to the enforcement
of Federal laws i'll the South
The North then maintained, and the
Democrats of the North in especial
maintained, that the Federal Constitu-
ton was part and parcel of the constr
tuition OF each State, and that all FEEDER
al laws enacted in pursuance OF that
Constitution were in effect State laws
from which no State could escape.
"From that vital doctrine we have
vet 10 see any evidence that the Demo-
cratic majority in Congress or any
Southern statesman departed during the
late session, or intends TO depart at any
future session. Asagainst constitution
al Federal laws there are no States or
State lines. To execute such laws the
President can enter any State, because
the President is for that purpose always
in every State.
"But Democrats do deny that the
President can, unbidden by a State, en-
ter State for any other purpose than
TO execute Federal laws. lie cannot,
unlimited by State, enter State with
Federal bayOnets to execute State laws;
nor TO maintain the peace OF State
which is not the national peace, as Tor
instance in case OF local mob in New
York; nor to keep the peace at the
polls of State election; nor to use the
army as police force in State. This
even Mr.. HAYES finally confessed.
These things, as we understand it, make
up the Democratic contention. Is there
any resemblance in il to the contention
of the Southern States in 1861? Did the
war which closed in 1865 settle anything
to the contrary of this Democratic con-
tention2N
