Geneva is in Ca peck of trouble" Some time ago the Duke of Brunswick left his enor- nous fortune to Geneva by quaintly worded testament. Grateful for the magnificent be- quest of the Duke, the city erected a costly equestrian statue to his memory, laid out pleasure grounds and founded schools upon the strength of the Brunswickian heritage valued at several millions of francs. Mean while the ''agnates' of the Brunswick-Lune- berg Ducal House took legal steps to dispute the validity of Duke Charles will, upon the ground that at the time he executed that doc ument he was 'tnon compos mentis," cir cumstance which, under the Brunswick State laws of the 9th and 14th March, 1883, would render his testamentary dispositions null and void. The case thus raised has been recently tried before the Brunswick tribunals, which have given sentence against Geneva, decIar- ing his Highness' will, under which that city claims his inheritance, to be invalid. Geneva has signihed her intention to appeal to still higher courts but, as 1t would appear, the leading jurists of Germany are of opinion that the decision of the Brunswick tribunals will be in every respect confirmed. Should
 
 spent an enormous sum of money in honor of Duke Charles, and to her own manifest em- bellishment; but, instead of deriving it from the proceeds of the celebrated Brunswick brilliants, she will have to pay it out of her own pocket.
 An elaborate report on the subject shows the amount of wool produced in California in 1879 to have been enormous, and the increase in production from 1854 to 1879 to have been very great. In 1854 the total production was but 175, 1000 pounds in 1860 it was 3,O5 5, S25 pounds; in 1866 it was 8, ,532, ,o47 pounds in 1872 1t was 24, 255, 46S pounds; in 1878 it was 40, S62, ,061 pounds, and in 1879 46, 1908, ,36O pounds were produced. During 1879 no. less than 125, ,O30 bags of wool were received at San Francisco, of which 6S, 11S bags were of spring wool and 56, 912 bags of fall wool The character of the clip of 1879 is reported as far above the average, and, with the exception of wools from a few localities which suffered from drought, is superior to that of any clip ever grown on the Pacific Coast. The pros poets for an increased clip in California in 1880 are regarded as very favorable. An abundance of rain has already fallen in all parts of the State, and though the losses caused by the severe droughts of 1877 8 in the southern counties have not yet been wholly made up, there is 8 great range for sheep, and the high price which wool has con- handed during the past year has caused in creased attention to be given to them. Of the 55. .449, ,555 pounds of wool which were received at San Francisco during 1879, 3S, 107, 500 pounds were shipped by rail, 3, FPS, 166 pounds by steamer, and 9,056, 272 pounds by sailing vessels. The value of this exported wool was $9, 900, GOO. The differ ence between receipts and exports has been taken by local mills and securing companies, with the exception of about 300, 900 pounds now on hand.

The friends of Senator Thurman profess to think that he may again become prominent candidate for the Presidency, in case the propo- sition pending before the New York Legisla- ture to change the method of appointing electors for President and Vice President in that State is adopted. With New York taken away from the Democrats by this measure, they reason that it would be absolutely neces- sary for them to turn their attention toward se- curing some other doubtful State whose elec- toral vote would most nearly supply the loss of New York. To make sure of Ohio, says MT. John G. Thompson, Git would be neces- sary to select one of her own sons as the standard bearer, and none among them would so well secure the largest vote possible in the State, and also command the general support of the Democratic party of the country as MT.

Be IN No HURRY TO MovE.-He was a
wise man who said, THE rouudest peg
seldom fits into the roundest hole without
some pairing" There is no position in
life which, at the first, has not something
irksome and trying about it. New comers
cannot expect to feel at home at once. We
remember our first wretched night at II
school where we afterwards became su-
premely happy. Well do we recollect the
misery of the first few months of calling
which we afterwards valued and enjoyed.
Our mind was sorcly depressed on first
coming into that sphere in London which
has since been the delight of our life. Let
no man, therefore, when he at first COM
mences work in any place feel at all dis
couraged by the uneasinesS which may
come over him. 1t is natural that ho
should feel strange in new position. Tho
burden is not yet adapted to the shoulder,
and the shoulder is not yet adapted to the
load. While feeling the irksomeness of a
fresh position, do not be so foolish rs to
throw it up. Wait little while. and time
will work wonders. You will yet take
pleasure in the very things which are now
the source of discomfort. The very worst
thing will be to hasten away and make n
change, for the change will only bring
trial in fresh form, and you will endure
afresh the evils which you have already
almost mastered. The time which you
have already spent at your new place
will be lost, and the same weary first
steps will have to be taken upon another
ladder. Besides, you may readily leap
out of the frying pan into the fire. Change
has charms to some men, but among its
roses they find abundant thorns.-Spur-

BAPFLED CURIOSITY.-Miss J. was
on the way south to spend the winter with
some relatives. Her friends Mr.. and Mrs.
Il were her travelling companions as
far ms Goldsborough, where they separated,
Miss J., having about a hundred miles
more of travelling to do alone, as the teIe-
gram received at Goldsborough stated
that her expected escort could not meet
her there. As usual the passengers on the
branch road were few, and Miss j was
the only lady on the train.
lhe conductor was an ex-conlederate
captain-a peculiar characteristic of sonth-
ern roads. lie was native of the town to
which Miss j. was ticketed, and was
very anxious to find out who his fair pas
scnger was. His rather of1icious efforts to
assist her in finding her friends when she
should reach her destination were rather
coldly refused. He finally got desperate,
and appealed to an ancient gentleman in
the Car Ga friend of his) to assist him.
Presently the old gentleman crossed the
car, took a seat Immediately behind our
fair traveller, and addressing her very
politely, said:" My friend, Captain P.
is very anxious to know who you are"
Looking up from the page Of her novel.
Miss j said " You didn't tell him did

He was so thoroughly taken aback that
it was some moments before he recovered
himself sufficiently to stammer, "N-no."

AN IMPORTANT DIsCovERY.-If Col.
Beaumont has made, as the London Times
says he has, nearly perfect compressed
air engine for locomotive purposes, we are
on the eve of another great change. which,
among other things, will settle certain
problems about elevated railroads. Col.
Beaumont's engine can haul, it is said. a
gross load of twenty-five tons for twenty
miles, with one change of air. This
promises to dispose of all trouble about
flame, smoke, grease or coal dropping,
foul smells and other nuisances which have
been complained of, and to make the ele-
vated railroad of the future n much more
tolerable thing than the elevated railroad
of the past. 1t is estimated in London
that the new engine will for certain func-
tions, supersede not only steam but horses
that it will bo applied, that is to say
10 carriages travelling common roads
which expectation, if realized, may bring
about wonderful revolution in the
methods and economics of our daily lives,
