TELEGRAMS.
FORTY.SIXFH CONGRESS.
REGULAR SESSION.
HOUSE

Washington, 2O.-The session was
for debate on tia funding bill, and
the House went into committee OF
the whole. FELTON, favored bis sub.ti-
tute requiring the secretary Of the
treasury to redeem bonds coming due
at stated intervals, with god and
silver in the treasury in excess of %
per cent. of the outstanding United
States notee; also requiring the secre-
tary to purchase 81 GOO. 600 of bullion
monthly, at par, for coinage into
dollars, and prohibiting the issuance,
hereafter, OF interest-beiDg bonds.
Orth thought the 81 per cent. bonds
would bring par and coDtrastod the
present state Of affairs with that
twenty years ago when, under demo
cratic rule, the public securities coUli
only be negotiated at II per cent.
Frye and Kelly engaged in discus
sion as to whether the public debt
could be paid in twenty year9.
Kelly said it could in fifteen Year,,
at the present rate of decrease, to
which RYE assenteC, Dut SAID me
present rate could not continue for
ever.
Kelly declared that with the stop
page of the cancellation of grcenbscks
and the demonstration of silver, de-
preston ended and the country was
redeemed. All his pTophesies were
fulfilled.
Frye would vote for the bill, but
believed in the next 100 years the
country would not zee a lower rate
than 81. The history Of the financial
management of this country since the
war was the mort magnificent ever
written from the dawn of the creation
to the present time, and Was due to
the sagacity, perseverance. fidelity and
of the republican party, who
stood against initiation ard repudis-
ton, and saved the integrity OF the
country.

THE CITY LOAN.

The official notice calling a special
election IN this city for The 5ta plox-
imo, has been issued. TIE purpose
OF the election Is for the people TO de-
eide whether they will take advan-
tage Of the extra power granted to the
corporation by the late legislature,
allowing the city to borrow $3.50. GOO
for obtaining water. In order to in
cur the loan, two-thirds Of the regis
tered voters voting on that day must
cast ballots III favor of borrowing the
money. There is some opposition to
the scheme, but it comes chiefly from
those who do not reaeon. Ii also
noteworthy that most of those who
are taking against the proposed loan
are persons least interested in the
plan, financially or otherwise. The
heaviest taxpayers, the large property
holders, are almost unanimously in
favor OF ths loan.
The herald was the warm friend
we might almost say one OF the
originstcTs-of the Salt Lake and
Jordan Canal. It urged the beginning
of work on the ditch, it labored 10
secure the passage of the bill by the
Legislature. and it now hopes and
expects to see the project an accom-
plished fact. We believe the people
will vote for this loan, because vel
have faith and confidence in tne in
telligence and coed sense OF the
people. Everyone who has property
In Salt Lake ought to be able to see
the advantage that will accrue from
the construction OF this canal, and
no one Gao deny the sbeoluts necessity
for it. The experience of last sum-
mer was stronger argument for the
canal Shan can be made on paper.
The loud appeals for water, the
parched and Withered gardens, and
thu fruitless orchards Of last season
were all plain reasons why the canal
should be constructed, and as soon as
it can conveniently be done. It is i'm
possible TO estimate the actual loss of
property that dry summer like that
of 1879 inhiots upon the city, to say
nothing of the less serious matters of
Inconvenience, annoyance and gen.
eral disagreeableness. There are few
residents but would prefer the doub- 7
ling or trebling even OF their taxes,
to a repetition of last seasons drought. !
It is true, there may be plenty OF {
water this year and next for the oity's i
needs, but the probabilities are against
This abundance. d
One argument in favor of the canal s

HOW A CYCLONE LOOKS.

The terrible cyclone which passed
through portion of Macoupin county,
ILL.,, last August, is thus described by
Engineer Cutter, of the Chicago & Alton
express train. which was running at full
speed, and met the tempest near Carlin-
vile. Mr.. Cutter saw, out on the prairie,
what he supposed to be q straw or hay
stack on fire. As he approached it, he
saw that it moved rapidly toward the
track, and realized that it was cyclone
Of the most appalling character. 1t was
dark, funnel shaped cloud, reaching
from the ground high in the air, where
it dissipated into the clouds. 1t was
black and dangerous, looking, and whirled
with frightful velocity. It's voice heard
even in the distance above the roar and
rumble of the train was frightful in the
extreme.
The cyclone seemed to travel at the
rate of twenty miles an hour, aud was SO
approaching that the moving train must
in moment inevitably strike it. Mr..
Cutter shut off his engine and applied the
r-brake just in time, but despite the
precaution the train touched the cyclones
outer edge. Mr.. G. describes the sight
as the most horrible he ever saw. The
air was lurid and dark and hot, as If from
an oven. Everything in the pathway Of
the storm was demolished, crushed, ami
hilated. Barns, fences, sheds, telegraph
poles, and everything at all fragile was
swept up. Mr.. Cutter and mis- tiremen
crouched down in the tender, and for a
moment feared the whole train would be
overturned. The cars were only held on
their TRICKS by the safety chains. The
passengers, who at first wondered at the
stop, with blanched cheeks ard terrified
counteDances viewed the terrible monster
Of the air in its work of annihilation.

TAME QUAIES.

Henry Benbrook, dealer in game, re.
eiding in Raritau, n j., has succeeded
in raising young quails, an operation
that has been tried in the United States
repeatedly, but which hitherto has prov
ed futile. -Four years ago he captured
two Morris County quails, the female
being lowland, and the male highland.
The female laid twenty-four eggs the first
year, but could not be induced to set.
The second year MIR. Benbrood was in
Canada, and nothing was done with the
birds. The third year the female made
its nest, laid twelve eggs, and after SCI.
ting ten days, died. The male bird then
sat on the eggs, and six quails were
hatched. They were all raised by Ben
brook, and are still living. The young
quails began laying on May 2lst last,
and up to July S1st had laid 103 eggs,
but they show no signs of setting as vet.
Some of the eggs were placed under q
bantam chicken, and six of them hatched
and the quails are alive to-day. This e1-
pertinent of raising young quails has
been undertaken by game societies all
over the world for years, but this is the
first time any one has succeeded, SO far
as the record shows.-Raral World.

LION AND DOG.

Lions, when confined in cages, do not
object to the presence of rats. These
are often seen gnawing the bones off
which the lions have dined. In illness
the case is different, for the ungrateful
rats begin to nibble the toes of the lord
of the forest before his death, and con-
siderably to his discomfort. ''To save
our lioness from this annoyance" said a
London Snowman, "we placed in her
cage fine little rat tan terrier, who was
at first received with surly growl, but
when the first rat appeared and the
lioness saw the little TERROR toss him in
the air, catching him with professional
skill across the loins with snap as be
came down, she began to understand
what the TERROR was for; she coaxed him
to her side, folded her paw around him,
aud each night the little terrier slept at
the breast OF the lioness, enfolded by her
paws, and watching that lis natural ene-
mics did not disturb the natural rest of
bis mistress. The rats had bad time
during those six weeks"

SOUTH AMERICAN CIVILIZATION.
TREATED woNKN WHO DISAGREED
WITH HIN.

When he came into power one of his
first acts Was to drive the priests out of
Guatemala. In his opinion they were
drones il the community and made
droues, so he would not have them about.
But the women, who there, as everywhere
else, have most use for religion, made a
great outcry about the expulsion of their
priests. There were a dozen women,
recognized leaders of society in Guate-
msls, wealthy and prominent, who we're
especially loud in their lamentations and
vituperations. They would have stirred
up an insurrection against Barrios, if
they could, on account of their priests.
He stood their attacks until his patience
gave way. At first he simply shrugged
his shoulders, then he knit his brous.
Finally he said, This thing must be

gallows erected in line on the plaza.
From the end of each arm he had sus-
pended . broad, shallow basket, with a
short rope fastened to the bottom like

brought to the baskets, placed in them,
and hoisted into the air. AS you may
imagine, such spectacle in the plaza at
tracted everybody. All the city came
focking to see the ladies thus elevated
into such undesirable prominence. And
fancy, if you can, the wild, unbounded
Joy of the hundreds of street boys when
free permission was given them to swing
those baskets by the short ropes attached
to them. The little ragamufins yelled
with delight, fought with each other to
get at the ropes, and exerted themselves
with frenzy to see who could toss bas.

the baskets and elutching the ropes by
which they were suspended, shouted
wildly, with new accessions of terror each
time fresh and vigorous hands gave a
liyelisr impulse to their wicker chariots
or sent them flying in new directions.
The assembled multitude roared with
laughter and encouraged the boys.
When. at length, President Barrios
