The Norristown Herald says
Professor Huxley says that one
of the most curious peculiarities
of the dog mind is its inherent
snobbishness, shown by the re-
gard paid to external respecta-
bility. "The dog" adds the
professor, "who barks furiously
at beggar will let a well-dress-
ed man pass him without oppo-
sition." Will Mr.. Huxley ex-
plain in this connection why a
half-staryed cur belonging to a
poor man whose clothing is as
tattercd as a professional beg
gar's cannot be coaxed to leave
his masters hovel and scanty
fare and follow a gentleman who
dresses in broadcloth, has a $500
diamond pin in his shirt front,
$1,000 in his pocket and is a
member Of the church in good
standing?

Boston Commercial Bulletin
One evening on return of the mi
ners to camp, there was a terri
BILE outcry from one of the tents
Scores Of miners rushed in &
body to the place whence the
cry issued and found a miner
bending over hisI mate, who, hav.
ing been sick, had not gone out
that day. The sick man was
dead, with a dagger in his heart
and the box on which he lay fol
a bed showed evidence of having
been broken open and rifed of
its contents. The body was still
warm, showing that the deed had
been recently perpetrated. The
miners immediately started in
pursuit of the murderer or mur-
derers. An hour later man
was brought in-one of the most
Misunderstanding characters ]
ever beheld. His pockets were
filled with gold, which was iden-
titled by the surviving mate as
the property of himself and dead
coInrade.
There was no mistake about
the matter. The bags in which
the dust was contained were
marked by the Joint names of
the mates, and the identity of
the nuggets the remaining mate
swore to. This was sufficient to
establish the guilt of the accused.
Some were for hanging him on
the spot, but the olaw-abiding
portion of the community, being
in the majority, insisted upon his
having a fair trial. He was re-
manded for the night and a
guard placed over him.
Next morning he was missing.
How he eluded the guard they
knew mot, but that he had es-
capped there could be no doubt.
What was worse, he carried off
the gold with him which had
been placed for safe keeping in
the prison to be used as testimo-
ny against him.
1t was deemed idle to pursue
him, but a description of the
murderer was drawn up and cir
culated, and a reward offered for
his capture, dead or alive. A
week passed away without any
tiding of the fugitive. AT the
end of that time a native came
into camp and, leaving a letter
for the presiding magistrate, dis
as suddenly as he came.
The letter was short, but it was
to the point:
Mr.. MvGIsTRATE: Jim Dell (the murder.
ed NAM was once a mate Of mine. He was
a good man. You will find Bill Grimes, his
at the head Of Dead Horse gully.

-, KANGAROO BILL,
~ Captain Of the Bushrangers.
A partyof miners Immediately
proceed ed to the locality des-
cribed, expecting to find the
murderer. fastened to a tree or
rock. What was their horror on
approaching the place to find
nothing but a feshless skeleton,
every bone picked clean until it
glistened like ivory in the sun.
The bushrangers had robbed the
murderer, and then, driving stakes
into the ground, they had fasten-
ed him, back down, to an ant
hill. The ants of Victoria are
as voracious as death. The mur-
derer had been eaten alive!

AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS.

The Louisville (Ky.) Courier Journal re-
fers at some length to the recent speech OF
Senator Davis, of this State, on Agriculture,
and says that if there is any one feature more
than another calculated to impart stability to
republican institutions and to insure the per-
petuaton of our liberties and freedom from
Socialism and Communism, it is the fact that
we have such conservative, resisting force
as our sgriculturists.
Senator Davis showed that, out of the 15,>
O00, 900 males of all occupations in this coun.
try, Z, 600, 900 of them are engaged in agri
cultural pursuits, 100000 in mining and
manufacturing, 5000, 900 in professional and
personal business, and 800, 900 in trade,
commerce and transportation. Thus more
than half of all the employed males Of the
country, in spite of the great drift of popu>
lation to the cities during the past few years,
are standing by the soil out of which has
como and will come the greater portion of
our wealth, the total value of the farms and
their appurtenpnces being reported in 1870
at $1l, 124, $50 ,037. 1t is safe to say, fur
Their, that the persons, of both sexes, en-.
gagged in and deriving their support from ag>
ricu!tural enployments, number twenty three
millions All Of which shows the vast i'm
portauce of these interests and the necessity
of removing distractions that the great con-
servative energy may do its bene6cieDt work.
1t is shown by Senator Davis what prom
incnt part agriculture has taken in increas-
ing our exports during the last few years.
Las. year our exports of agricultural pro-
ducts were valued at 1856, OBS, 95l, out Of
total exports OF all kinds valued at $685.
TAO, $50, which shows that agriculture fur
nished three fourths of all our exports. To
the farmer, it will be perceived, and not to
the American manufacturer, is due tho in
crease of foreign trade. The manufacturer,
by tariff of his own making, has shut him>
self out from the large trade which he could
otherwise obtain.
The farmer is not benefited by the
existing tariff. He has to pay duty or tax
averaging APE per cent on many articles IN
! constant use by him and his family. Ho
pays, for instance, a tax of from 50 to so per
cent. on iron and steel; IS per cent. on leath>
err from 10 to so per cent. on China and
earthenware from 30 to GO per cent. on no.
siery; 40 per cent. on bonnets. hats, etc from
so to IS per cent carpets; GO per cent.
on salt, and from so to 60 per cent on ready.
