The Montgomery County Team Beaten q,
Short Range.

The return friendly match between teams Of
the Columbia and Montgomery County (Md,)
Rife Associations, on Saturday afternoon last,
on the Beunings Range, resulted in an easy vic.
tory for the Columbias. For some unexplain-
able cause the shooting OF both teams was far
below their averages. This may be partly &C.
counted for by the bad luck of Nj. Iauri,zen
and Mr.. Bruce of tie Co.gmb!as, aud OF Mr..
whitehall Of the Noutg0merys. in shooting on
the wrong targets, THIS was done by Mr..
LauritIeu twice aud by each OF the other gen.
tlcmen once. The unlUcky rihemeu were un.
der the rules, promptly fUcd ii each for each

markers in the targets who were exposed 20
danger by the uulucky shots. This, 40 doubt,

4 Thriving Plant.

How a plant colonies itself and be-
comes a permanent and thriving in
habitant may be seen from the follow
ing:
A curious instance of the invasion of
a country by a plant of foreign origin is
seen in the history of the mango in
Jamaica. In 1872, specimens of the
cinnamon, jack-fruit and mango were
sent TO the Botanic Garden of the island.
There the cinnamon was carefully fos-
tered, bat proved TO be difficult of culture
in the island while the mango, which
was neglected, became in eleven years
as common as the orange, spreading
over low lands and mountains, from the
sea-1evel TO 1000 feet elevation. On the
abolition of slavery, immense tracts Of
land, especially coffee plantations, re-
lapsed into a state of nature, and the
mango being 8 favorite fruit with the
blacks,its stones we're flung everywhere,
giving rise to groves along the road
sides and around the settlements; and
the fruit of these, again. rolling down
hill, gave rise 10 forests in the valleys
The effect of this spread of the mango
has been to cover hundreds Of thousands
of acres, and to ameliorate the climate
of what were dry and barren districts
/ by producing moisture and shade, and
/ by retaining the rainfalls that had pre-
viously evaporated; all this, besides
/ affording food for several months of the
J year TO both negroes and horses.

The Boss American.

The Civil War has not yet wiped out
patriotism from the American heart. 1t
may lie slumbering and unseen upon our
shores, but, when we strike abroad, the
ftful spark is breathed into fiery exist
ence that frightens as it shines. A typ
ical wild eagle of this sort was recently
met with. Among party of young
American tourists on the Continent was
one who would have proved Chief
Sachem of the doubling Thomases of
the Innocents Abroad; he was so thor
oughly patriotic that he could see no
excellence in any thing in the Old World
as compared with his own country
Mountains, waterfalls, churches, monu-
ments, scenery, and all other objects of
interest, were inferior to what the United
States could show. His companions be-
came somewhat tired of his overween-
ing boastfulness, and determined to give
him one startling novelty at any rate,
and witness the fall of his boasting
greatness. They spent last winter in
Rome, and one night on drinking bout
they got the enthusiastic young Yankee
under the table, but kept sober them
selves. He got gloriously drunk,
intOxication kissed his eyelids down in
sleep, and they carefully carried him
into the catacombS, lad him carefully
down, with candle within reach, and
retired a short distance out of sight to
wait for developments. After while
their friend reused up, having slept off
the first drunken stupor, and, in state
of astonishment, began endeavoring to
locate himself, at the same time mutter-
ing: Well-hic-this' little strange.
ner-hic-where l am, anyway P"
He got out his match, lighted his can
die, and began to study his surround
ings. On each side were shelves piled
with grinning skulls and inches filed
with skeletons, while all about were
piled legs, arms, ribs, and vertebr@ "a

An Ear for Bells.

d. p. Hicks, a young man residing
in this city, is endowed with a wonder
full memory for musical sounds some
what akin to that which distinguishes
the musical prodigy, Blind Tom. The
only difference is that Mr.. Hicks goes
no further than to recognize sounds
which he has once heard, while Blind
Tom not only recognizes them but is
able to reproduce them. Mr.. Hicks's
specially is railroad locomotive bells,
for which his ear has an especial fond
ness and with which he is able to pro-
duce some curious experiments. The
sound of a locomotive bell, once heard,
he distinctly remembers for any length
of time hereafter, and as each locOmO-
tive has 8. number, he can tell the num-
Der when he hears the bell ring. There
are over 500 locomotives running on the
Central Railroad, and of these he has
been able to give the numbers accurate
ly through his peculiar faculty. He has
been tested many times by persons who
were struck by the feats thus accom-
plished by his memory, and not only
proved that he knew the different num-
bers of the locomotives from the sound
of their bells, but could also tell any two
that rang in the came key. Bells of To-
comOtives running on the road, which
he has not heard for years, he instantly
recognizes when they strike his ear
once more, and whenever he hears To-
cOmOtive whose number IS over 800 he
knows it at once, as all the new loco
motives over that number have bells

When the summer harvest was gather'd In.
And the sheaf OF the cleaner grew White ana
And the piowshare was I'm its furrow left,
= here the stubble land had been lately cieit,
An Indian hunter, with unstrung bow,
Looked down where the valley lay stretched

lie was a stranger there, and all that day
Had been out on the hills, a periious way;
But the foot of the deer was far and fleet,
And the wolf kept aloof from the hunters
And bitter feelings pass'd o'er him then
AS he stood by the populous haunts of men.
The winds of autumn came over the woods
As the sun stole out from their solitudes,
The moss was wh-te on the naples trunk,
And dead from It's arms the hale vine shrunk,
And ripen'd the mellow fruit hung, and red
Were the trees wfthered leaves around it
shed.
The footIof the reaper moved slow on the

The mower sung loud by the meadow side,
Where the mists Of evening were spreading
And the voice of the herdsman came up the
And the dance went round by the greenwood
tree.
Then the hunter turned away from that
where the home of his fathers once had been,
And heard by the distant and measured
That the woodman hew'd down the giant oak.
And burning thoughts iash'd over his mind,
OF the white mans faith and love unkind.
The moon of the harvest grew high and

LeadvilIe Thrown in the Shade.

Mr.. S. CalderOn of this city yesterday
returned from his trip TO Saltillo, Mex,
and reports the most intense excitement
prevailing in central Mexico over the
recent discovery of silver mines of un-
surpassed richness. Mr.. S. says that
parties direct from the mines state that
a town of over 5000 inhabitants has
sprung up in the vicinity, and that the
excitement is only in its infancy. The
mines are located in the Sierra Majadas,
situated in the corner of the States of
Chihuahua, Couduila, and Durango, ,anG
that the mountains are of great height,
and the climate that perpetual spring
only known In central Mexico. The
vein of quartz bearing metals is on an
average twenty and one half varas thick,
or in American measure about fifty feet,
and it is said to yield ore that assays
fifty per cent. pure silver. This region
is situated few leagues west of the Chi
huahua and Saltillo road and about 375
miles a little south of west of San An
tonic. Mr.. Calderon reports the excite
ment surprising any thing ever seen IN
Mexico, and says that in a few weeks a
large city will be founded. The mining
laws OF Mexico are well calculated to
encourage such an enterprise. In few
days we hope to give our readers more
definite news in regard to this bonanza

Infant Mortality Caused by Milk Adult
teratiOn.

Never before in the history of Detroit
has there been such mortality among
children as during the past month. One
hundred and seventy-two infants under
one year died. Physicians have agreed
that this wholesale death-rate was caus-
ed by impure food, and the matter was
given in charge of the sanitary police
for investigation. In their rounds the
officers obtained possession of samples
of milk which had been furnished a
customer by a milk-vender named
Isaac Jandorff, which were taken to the
police headquarters, where, after IL had
stood five hours, thick white sediment
was found deposited upon the bottom of
the vessel which contained it. This
was carefully analyzed by several ply
sicians, who found it to be white earth,
the terra alba of commerce. 1t is the
fine white clay quite extensively used in
the manufacture of cheap confectionery.
It is not poisonous, but is, of course,
neither nutritious nor wholesome, and
when taken by children is apt to pro-
duce grave stomach and bowel disor-
ders. In the meantime inquiries on the
part of the police revealed the fact that
Jandorff furnished milk to persons of
high and low degree, besides supplying
other dealers. The officers discovered
several cases of sickness among chill
dren of patrons occasioned by the use of
deleterious milk. That the foreign ma
teriaI has been largely used in adultera-
ton is evidenced by the fact that 8
quart of the liquid would deposit about
half a teacup of sediment. Upon
searching the milk-peddler's cellar, a
considerable quantity of white earth
used in the adulteratiOn was found, and
| is now in possession of the Police De-
partment. Jandorff was taken into GUS
tody this morning, and other arrests
will probably follow.-Chtcdg9 Tn baS'1e
