Sentiment and Sense.

Faithfulness and sincerity are the
highest things.
Pride hath two seasons q forward
spring and an early fall.
Human life is everywhere state in
which much is to be endured.
Favors of every kind are doubled
when they are speedily conferred.
1t is something to be good; but it is
far finer to be good for something.
he is not only idle who does nothing,
but he is idle who might be better EN-.
ployed.
No principle is more noble, as there
is none more holy, than that of true
obedience.
The necessities that exist are in gen.
eral created by the superAuities that
are enjoyed.
It often happens that those of whom
we speak least on earth are best known
in heaven.
Unhappy is the man for whom his
own mother has not made all other
mothers venerable.
Modesty promotes worth but conceals
it, Just as leaves aid the growth of fruit
and hide it from view.
Hope is like the wing of an angel,
soaring up to heaven, and bearing our
prayers to the throne of God.

A Merited Commitment.

A short time since Mr.. j. 8. Phillips, NJ.
E., presented to the California Academy Of
Sciences copy OF the new edition of his
" Explorers, Miners and metallurgists' Com.
panion." This being Californian literary
production, it was given to committee for
examination. At the last meeting of the
Academy, DR.. A. B. Stout reported for this
committee. He highly extolled the book
speaking OF it as in every sense q practical,
carefully.written treatise on the subjects to
which it is devoted. He called particular at
tention to the soundness of the views ex-
pressed In the preliminary chapters, with
relation to the formation Of the earth, and
to the careful and lucid manner in which the
novel theories advanced by the author were
explained. His remarks on the more practi.
cal portion OF the book relating to assaying,
prospecting, testing. ETC., were highly com.
plimentary to the author. The work as
whole being commended as one OF the few
complete technical treatises published In
this State, and relating specially to the in.
dustry which made California what she Is,
was one which should be in the hands OF all
miners and metallurgists on the coast. DR..
Stout also highly commended the various
apparatus for prOspectors use in assaying,
etc. invented by Mr.. Phillips and described
in the book, he having examined the appli-
ances and seen assays made with them

Don't Call in the Morning.

Now, Ronald you know that love you;
You know tina. my promise is true;
And think there is hothiDS more pleasant
Than leading the German with YOU
sBut listen, I've something to whisper,
Y. Be sure. tbs no perilous warning:
pat YOUR fears all to rest, it's a simple re-
quest
Please, Ronald, don't call in the morning.
Now, Ronald, don't wrinkle your forehead,
And open your eyes like goose;
Don't try to look rueful or horrid;
Ny we, it will be Of no use,
One cannot arrange puff braid, and riuglet,
With only ahalfminute's warning;
Aud when dishabile one really can't say
One longs for call in the morning.
Besides, mamma thinks it is silly,
And surely dear mamma must know,
For she's been leader of fashion
these thirty odd SEASONS or so.
Don't talk of simplicity, dearest;
What's beauty without some sdornirg?
One looks like fright after dancing all night
So, Ronald don't call in the morning.

TIE FATAL TRAIN.-The cause of
the delay in finding the fated train at
the bottom Of the Tay was the excessive
muddiness Of the water. The divers
could not see an inch before them. The
water is twenty feet deep where the
train sank. Fox, the diver, walked
along the bottom until he came plump
up against some object Of iron. He at
first thought it was part Of the bridge,
but when he felt OF it With his hands he
found it was the engine. The frs.
thing brought up was the lamp OF

COUNTERFEIT EaGs.-It is we'll known
that in America everything is counter
feited; the wooden hams and nutmegs
sent from the New England states are
we'll remembered. Eggs are now also
counterfeited. and this mandatory is
carried out on large scale. On one
side of large room the reporter saw
several large copper vessels filed with
thick, glutinous, yellow mass, which
man was constantly stirring. This
was the yellow Of the egg-the yolk.
On the opposite side were similar yes
sells in which the white was fabricated.
The egg shells were made Of white
substance resembling plaster of Paris,
by means of blowpipe. just as soap
bubbles are blown. After being dried
in an oven, the egg shells were flied,
first with artificial albumen, then with
some of the artificial yolk, and lastly
with little OF the artificial albumen:
The small opening at the end OF the
egg was closed with q white cement,
and the greatest achievement of modern
civilization, the artificial egg, was ready.
In appearance it resembled q natural
egg, but, whether cooked Or raw, it was
indigestible and injurious to the health.

R0bbing His Boy.

Last spring q farmer found in his
flock lamb which the mother would
not own. He gave it to his son, a boy
fifteen years old, who saved it and
raised it. The boy called it his all
summer. all the family called it his.
and it was his. But this fall when his
father sold his lambs he let this one go
with them, and taking the pay for it,
tucked it into his big wallet snd carried
it off to pay taxes or put it in the bank.
On this statement of facts the Manches
ter Mirror makes the following severe
but Just comment:
Now this farmer did not Intend to do
anything wrong. Least cf all did he
intend to wrong his boy.
Probably he did not give the matter
much thought anyway; but If he did,
he considered the boys ownership OF
the lamb pleasant fiction, or reasoned
that the boy, having all his needs sup.
piled out of the family purse, did not
need the pay for the lamb, and it was
better to put it into the common
fund.
But for all that, taking the lamb and
selling it in that way, and pocketing
the proceeds, was stealing. No, it was
robbery, and, as between this boy and
his father, one Of the meanest robberies
that could he perpetrated.
Not only this, but by robbing the
boy of that two dollars the farmer did
more to make the boy disconnected
and drive him away from home than
he can undo with ten times that amount.
A boy is little man. and if be has
got any of the gather and grip to
him when he grows up, he begins at an
early age to feel that desire to own
something and add toAkbe property
subject to his ownership, which is at
once the incentive to effective work
and the motive which reconciles men
to their condition.
No matter how we'll the boys wants
are provided for from fund which is
common to the whole family, he takes
no particular interest in adding to that
fund, because he does not feel that it
is his, and he tires of labor and thought,
the proceeds Of which he must share
with several others.
But give him piece of property of
his own, to m0nsge as he pleases, to
keep or sell or change, and let him feel
that his ownership is secure, and that
his loss or gain depends upon his own
endeavors, and he will work cheerfully
and cOntentedlv

Senator Davis On tho Pence.

Hancock has at last got one recruit,
who declares he will vote for him be
cause the country demands a change
That recruit is Judge Davis, who has
ut last got down from the fence upor
which he has teen pretending to sill
since 1872, when he was carried away
with the Greeley liberal movement
Davis can possibly control one vote,
though so far as known he has not
been much of voting man for ten
or twelve years. He has always been
rather opposed to electing Generals to
Office but then Hancock has shown so
we'll how to apply civil law by his order
No. Al, he thinks he can take him Just
IS he is. Then again. there Is no hope
Of reform, says the ponderous Senator,
from party that has been in power
twenty years. To use fgurative ex-
preston the old ship Of Stats is AFT to
have larhacles on the bottom and
there ia chance that it might be
stranded AMI lost. Ju' ge Davis has
been influence by these arguments to
come out squarely for Hancock, as If
there had been some doubt in the
minds of the public as to where he
stood in his contest. To make every.
body sure he has written a letter to a
friend who he knew vould publish it,
that there3y the Teople might know On
what side he ha thrown his ponder
GUS inhu:n 'e. Well, the Sen tor has
declared for Hancock, AMI tpst settles
the question. Hancock mus! now be

mined to vote and will vote for Han

nh0 Chty Election.

II will not be quite four weeks unit
the city election will be held. 1t
quite time that the Republicans wer
bes'i,riug themselves If they expect t
make much Of show towards carryinI
the election. Owing to the outrageou
farce called an election held last fal
which put the Democrats in possession
Of some Of the Republican Wards and
having entrenched themselves by
chicansry and fraud they will be hard ia
dislodge. The Fifth, Eighth, Ninth
and Third Wards are decided Republi.
oan wards when a fair election ia held,
and the presence Of, Democrats in the
City Cou noil from these wards Is only
evidence Of the gross frauds that have
been committed by the Democrats.
These wardsy can all be carried by tie
Republicans II good popular candidates
are nominated for Council, and har-
mony is preserved in the party. The
latter we believe will be, for
IL is difficult to see what advantage
can be gained by pulling in different
directions. There is also q fighting
chance for the Republicans in the First,
Second, Third and Fourth Wards, and
by judicious management and popular
candidates they may all be carried for
the Republicans. The great thing re.
quired to enable the Republicans to
carry the city government is for all the
Republicans VINO are assessed to
promptly pay their taxes and get from
the Collector receipt that will enable
them to vote at the city election to be
held on Tuesday, the seventh Of Sep.
TENDER. II Republicans do not pay
their county. and poor tax, Of course
they cannot,vots and there will be an
end 10 all Republican victories. In.
thusiasm is good thing, but that will
mot gain Republican victories. 1t is
the ballot that counts after it ia put in
the ballot box, and it cannot be put in
If the taxes are not paid. This is Of the
greatest Importance, and we hope that
If there are any Republicans who have
been laggard in paying their taxes they |
will not put it of any longer. The city
election will be held three weeks from
next Tuesday. Do not put off paying
your taxes until day or two before the
election.

That Low Tax Rate

It Is true that the Democrats have
been botching along At reduced rat,
Of taxation for city expenses and til,
Gazette Is not forgetful to remind tn,
people Of 1t. In the first place it should
not be forgotten that in 1879 when tn,
reduction commenced they had $34,
90" of borrowed money to help them
through. which amount is added to
the public debt and the city to-day is
paying interest upon it. The present
year they seized $4,000 they found
lying in the Treasury of the Board Of
Education which they appropriated,
and that, in addition to stopping all
public improvements, has enabled them
to keep the rate down this year. 1t
will be noticed however that there
have been no public improvements
made. There are no more opening Of
streets, no more paving of streets, no
more maca damizing Of streets; none, or
very few water pipes have been or are
being laid, and the avenue to the river
remains unopened. Instead of being
in a stage of active improvement the
city is more like a run down farm with
every thing out OF order. The streets
are not cleaned as they should be, the
garbage is left to tester and rot
in a number Of the cutters, and there is
a great neglect in removing the ashes.
Every thing is reduced down to a peiut
far below the real wants and needs of
the city simply for the purpose of
making point to gull the people and
catch votes on the false plea of econo.
my that they may be kept in power.
These subterfuges will not deceive the
people. There are no more loose funds
lying around that can be laid hold of
to run the city, and the tax rate must
necessarily be raised next year even if
the Democrats are continued in power.
We are not in favor Of a high rate of
taxation hut We are not in favor Of such
a low rate as must stop all public i'm,
provements and check the increase of
value in property. There is mean
in everything and beyond that no party
In power should 90. Public improve
nents should never be checked. As the
streets Ct the city will all eventually
be paid or macadamize1 some should
be done every year. This will do more
towards enhancing the value of real
estate and thereby re iucipg the tate of
taxation Than the plan sdopted by the
present Democratic council and besides
that 1t will be the means of furnishing
work for laboring men.
Much of the revenue upon which
The city is now depending is being
collected from parties who were bene. |
tied and owed bills for public improve |
nents made when the Republicans
we're in power. If there is to be a to-
al cessation Of laying waer pipe and
pening and paving streets for the
axe of showing q low tax rate for DO
itical purposes, there must be an end
, the increased collection of revenue.
