A few years ago the population of Ham
ilton is said to have been nearly 5000;
that of Treasure Hill, 5000; of Sherman
town, 1000; of Swansea, 5000. All of
these were incorporated towns, with
mayor, council, fire department, and daily
newspapers Hamilton has now about
one hundred inhabitants, most of whom
are merely waiting in dreary inaction for
something to turn up. Treasure Hill has
about half as many; Shermantown one
family, and Swansea none; while on the
other had the graveyards are far too full.
In one canon of the Tolyaba range, near
Austin, | found no less than five dead
towns without single inhabitant. The
streets and blocks of ''real estate" graded
on the hillsides are rapidly falling back
into the wilderness. Sage bushes are
growing up around the forges of the
blacksmith shops, and lizards bask on the
crumbling walls.

The Eureka RepabIicap tells about Mark
Twain's lecture at Dayton, Neb., years
ago. His agent used to get up an excite
ment about the lecture by building bon
fire before the hall and sending fife and
drum through the streets an hour before
the beginning of the entertainment. He
did this in Dayton, then a fourishing
camp,and the Piutes naturally got the
impression that some kind of an exciting
show was to be given, and the chief tack
led the enterprising agent on the subject
ofhalf-priced admissions, and some thirty
paid their half dollars and filed into the
hall. Presently Mark made his appear
ance on the stage and began drawling
away in his usual style. The white peo-
pie laughed boisterously, but the Indians
looked puzzled, and, after standing it for
fifteen minutes, they began whispering,
whispering and grunting among them
selves, and finally the chief got up and
went out to the box office, and inquired
when the tumbling was going to COM
mence, and that cheap big fool'' was go
ing to quit talking. Upon learning that
the performance was going to be all
talk, and conveying this horrid informa-
ton to the other Indians, they arose in a
body, left the hall and swarmed to the
box office, and demanded their monev
back. The agent couldn't think of such
a thing, and the Piutes went out in the
street and gave vent to their feelings in
war-whoops. 1t looked for few minutes
as if the disgusted warriors would start
in to wreck the hall and murder the lee.
turer. A crowd of whites, attracted by
the loud, angry yells of the red men
/ gathered, however, and Mark Twain was
saved to an admiring world.

plague broke out in Bagdad, and passed
thence to Resht, where it assumed vir-
ulent character, its victims dying on the
third day of their illness and there it con-
tinued its ravages till the February of
1873.
Prof. Tchudnovsky states positively
that the tehuma is durable, though its
poison is ssasbolutely unknown to medical
seience.'' Cleanliness, care, diet, the use
of hot and cold baths and fermentations-
these are the points on which he lays
most stress, and he feels sure that the
malady is not contagious. The peasants
undoubtedly think it is so, but he attrib-
utes their belief entirely to fear. As to
| quarantines and F'sanitary cordons, !"
those are, according to DIR. Grish, who has
closely investigated the matter, ga mere
waste of money. In fact, quarantine
buildings are far less likely to ward of
the danger than to become hotbeds of dis
ease. OF much more practical use, says
another authority, Prof. Dobraslayin,
will be disenfecting measures; and he re-
lies greatly upon the beneficial force OF
fire. Not only ought the bodies of the
dead to be burned, but also the houses
in which they died. In many cases, in
deed, it would be as well to burn down
whole villages, and transport their inhab'
itants elsewhere. Strong measures mus
undoubtedly be taken. If the peasants
be left alone they will probably conten
themselves with two kinds of supposed
remedies. The orthodox will send TO
the nearest ''wonder-working icona, o
holy picture. 1t will be carried in pro
cession, priests escorting it with incens
and song, the faithful flinging themselve
prone on the ground as it passes, or kneel
ing down so that it may be borne abov
their bodies. The wilder and less respect
able of the Raskolniks, or secretaries
will also adopt some strange method SUP
posed to be connected with Christian doc
. | trines. But in many distant village, i
the midst of "dreaming" forests or drear
swamps, the rustics will resort to tn
strange rites by which their heather ar
cestors believed that they could driv
= awav the demons of the pestilence. Boz
: fires will be kindled at midnight, an
lightly clad women, with loosely flown
hair, will dance around the flames, an
fling into them some kind of sacrifice.
T may even be that in some very remot
spot human victim will be immediate
) with the idea of propitiating the demo
to whose malace or hunger the pestilent
is due.

Nevada's Dead Towns.

Nevada is one of the very youngest and
widest of the States, nevertheless it is
already strewn with ruins that seem as
gray and silent and time-worn as if the
civilization to which they belonged had
perished centuries ago. Yet strange to
say, all thessTuins are the results of min
ing efforts made within the last few years.
Wander where you may throughout the
length and breadth of this mountain
barred wilderness, you everywhere come
upon these dead mining towns, with their
tall chimney stacks, standing torlorn, and
broken walls and furnaces, and machine
ry half buried in sand, the very names
of many of them already forgotten amid
the eXcitements of late discoveries, and
now only known through tradition-tra-
dition ten years old. While exploring
the mountain ranges of the State during
considerable portion of three summers,
think that 1 have seen at least five of
these deserted towns and villages for ev-
cry one in ordinary life. Some of them
were probably only camps built by bands
of prospectors, and inhabited for a few
months or years, while some specially in
teresting canon was being explored, and
then carelessly abandoned for more prom
Using fields. But many we're real towns,
regularly laid out and Incorporated, con-
tanning well-built hotels, churches,
school houses, postoffices, and jails, as
well as the mills on which they all de-
pended, and whose well-graded streets
were filed with lawyers, doctors, brokers,

The Columbus. JeffersOnvilIe and
Cinc1nmatl Railroad.

Several of the officials and parties in
terested in the above road, including
George Kious, President; DIR. Samuel Nc
Clintick, Vice President; Chief Engineer
Rock, Director Willis Hayes, Agent Isaac
Glaze and others, met in this city last
evening to confer with citizens along the
proposed line concerning the right of
way, especially from Shadeville to Col
umbus, and with citizens of this city as
to the entrane of the road into Colum-
bus. They speak in the most fattering
terms of the prospects of this road; that
it has many grounds for. their expecta-
ton of its early completion. Having al
ready twenty-three miles of the line COM
pleted, from WaynesSille to Allentown ;
the right of way entire. and from Darby
creek to Shadeville, and part between
Shadeville and Columbus; having SO
many miles less to build to make Colum-
bus than any other road can have, in fact
only forty-four miles to build between
| Waynesville and Columbus; with the sale
of the road between Allentown and Mt.
| Sterling advertised to take place the 2Oth
/ instant-with all these facts in their fa-
vor and much money raised, the corpora
tion would seem to have good reason for
their sanguine expectations. Aside from
being Vice President of the Columbus,
JeffersonEille and Cincinnati road, DR.
McClintick is also President of the Col
umbus, Mt. Sterling and Washington
road, and he informs us that as soon as
they get the Columbus, Jeffersonville and
Cincinnati road in working order from
Allentown to Mt. Sterling, he intends tc
turn his energies to the Columbus, Mt
Sterling and Washington road and al
once put it through from Washington tC
Mt. Sterling; that they have the money
raised to build and put it in order from
BlOOmingburg to Mt. Sterling entire
aside from the free right of way already
signed over the route. All in all there i!
a prosperous look for those two narrow
gauge roads.-O. s. Journal.

The Profits of Large Farms

The experience of the last few years
has shown that the cultivation of large
farms in the West, where they are al
most entirely owned, has been anything
but lucrative. They have proved in the
main both injurious to individuals and
the country; the failure of the colossal
farmers in Illinois being examples of the
untoward fate attendant upon gigantic
enterprises of the kind. Farming on a
large scale, even with the assistance of
improved machinery and implements, is
a dangerous pertinent here, and usually
terminates disastrously. The majority of
agriculturists who have made money on
small farms, have lost it on large farms,
and this experience has been repeated in
Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Ne
braska and Dakota. The trouble is that
our big farmers undertake far more than
they can accomplish, and their grand am
bitlon ends in partial or slovenly cultiVa-
tiOn. 1t is estimated that the money sunk
by large farmers during the last ten years
amounts to more than 800, ,OOO, 900, and
it is thought that their failures have
taught them a valuable and much-needed
lesson. Much of the success of France
has been ascribed to the subdivision of the
country into small farms, which thor
oughly titled, support large population.
Although we do not usually regard
France as agricultural, she produces more
wheat, it is said, than the whole of the
United States. Her crop for 1868 is rep
resented at 800, ,OOO, 600 bushels, while ours
for the same year was only 24O, ,0OO, ,OOO
bushels. Wines, silks, laces, oils and fine
fabrics of divers kind are not her sole ex-
ports; she sends enormous quantities OF
grain, butter, eggs and other household
products to Great Britain. Two-thirls of
the entire area of France is under cult
vati0n, while not over One-third--if sc
much-is under cultivation in this coun.
try, and her farms yield on an average
per acre, three or four times what the
broad regions of the West do.

A Mountain Mafl-Carr1er Who Live
for Ten Days on Tobacco and snow.

Helena (Nfontana) Independent
Casey carried what is known as the
horseback mail, but which is, in fact, car
ried by two-wheeled vehicle like sui
ky, from Sun River to the Twenty-eight
Mile Springs. On the 27th ult. he started
from the former place. There was blind
ing snowstOrm at the time, and the track
across the prairie was wholly lost. As he
did not reach the end of his drive at the
appointed time it was assumed that he
had lost his way, and this theory proved
| to be well founded. There were not want
| ing brave men, both at Helena and Sun
River, to undertake the search for the
missing man; but their most arduous eff
forts were in vain. On the Sd inst. Mr..
William Rowe reached Benton, and was
Informed of the circumstance. The wealth
j er was fearfuHy cold; but this did not de-
ter him from the attempt that humanity
dictated. Mounted on a horse he set forth,
and in due time found dim track where
it seemed probable that Casey had left
the main road. Following this, his la
bors werearewarded on the 9Th inst. by
finding the driver about twenty miles
north of Twenty-eight Mile Springs.
When Casey was found he was sitting in
his cart, which the horse was drawing
slowly and painfully along. He was in a
doze, and Mr.. Rowe shouted to him once
or twice before he was reused to conscious
ness. 1t was then found that his right
foot and leg were frozen nearly to the
knee, and that his left foot was in the
same condition. 1t is believed. that his
injuries are not serious and that he will
. not suffer the loss of either limb. His
story was soon told; and with his recol-
4 lection of his experience and what Mr.
: Rowe learned in his search the tale is
t wonderful beyond fiction. The driver
e had been wandering over that traeklesS
i prairie for ten days and nights Without
e food or shelter and with a temperature
r never above zero. All this time he haC
d moved in an almost perfect circle and haC
y picketed his horse and camped every
e night in almost the same spot. More re
markable still, he had daily passed within
