Ifthere has been any misunderstanding
about Mr.. Faulkner's candidacy it has re-
suited from his own expressions when be

in regard to it. Like Seymour, he always
answered in the negative, andyet despite
his negations the impression prevailed that
he could be induced to be a candidate
which impression isnow seen to have been
correct. The effect Of Mr.. FRulkneF's dilly'

The End OF tho World.
Most respectfully,
DAVID 4. ZEAGI.ER

The following dismal picture of the
end of the world IL by the noted French
scientist, Camille Flammariun
The earth was born; she will die.
She will die either of old age, when her
vital elements shall have been used up,
or through the extinction of the sun, 10
whose rays her life is suspended. Sine
might also die by accident, through COL
iisi0n with some celestial body meeting
her on her route; but this end of the
world is the most improbable of all.
She may, We repeat, die natural death
through the absorption of her vital
elements. In fact, it is probable that the
air and water are diminishing. The
ocean, like the atmosphere, appears TO
have been formerly much more consid-
erable than it is in our day. The terres-
trial crust is penetrated by waters which
combine chemically with the rocks. 1t
is almost certain that ths temperature of
the interior of the globe reaches that of
boiling water at the depth of about six
miles, and prevents the water from de-
scending any lower but the absorption
will continue with the cooling of the
globe. The oxygen, nitrogen and car
bonic acid, which compose our atmos-
phcre, also appear to undergo absorption,
but slower. The thinker may toresee,
through the mis-. of ages yet to come,
the epoch, yet afar off, in which the
earth, deprived of the atmospheric,
aqueous vapor which protects her from
The glacial cnld of space by preserving
the solar rays around her, will become
chilled in the sleep of death. AS Henri
Vivarel says: From the summit of this
mountains winding sheet OF snow will
descend upon the high plateaus and the
valleys, driving before it life and civiliza.
| ton, and masking forever the cities and
nations that it meets on its passage"
Life and human activity will press insen-
sibly towards the inter.tropical zone.
st. Petersburg, Berlin, London, Paris,
Vienna, Constantinople and Rome will
ull asleep in succession under this
eternal shroud. During very mnny ages
equatorial humanity will undertake
Arctic expeditions TO find again under
the ice the place of Paris, Lyons, Bor-
deaux and Marseilles. The sen coast will
have changed and the geographical map
of the earth will have been transformed.
No one will live and breathe any more
except in the equatorial zone up to the
day when the last family, nearly dead
with cold and hunger, will sit on the
shure of the last sea, in the rays of the
sun, which will thereafter shine here bc.

were not the aggressors in this tragic
scene, and neither should they be accused
of it, rs they have been. This riot,
although 1t happened upon the streets of
Denver, still there is no doubt but that it
was committed by miners. who camo
from the mountains 10 participate in the
election.
The common schools Of Denver are
equal, if not superior, to those Of any of
our cities. There are in the city at least
eight large, commodious and imposing
buildings, with beautiful grounds. The
schools are graded. and taught by the
most thoroughly competent instructors.
They are in session thirty eight weeks in
the year. The average attendance is
nearly four thousand. Teachers are
handsomely compensated for their SER
vices.
Before closing must say word OF all,
especially young men, who anticipate
coming TO Colorado for fortune. You
must not hoist your expectations too
high. Colorado is not a paradise, with
streets paved with gold. Neither is
Denver. If you have money, you may
come; without it you may be several
days obtaining the desired fortune.
Those who have money accumulate it
very rapidly by lending at u to per
cent per month, with real estate as Sc
curity. 1t is an acknowledged fact that
the avocations of labor are more numer.
ous than in oiden countries, but the de-
mand is greater. The country is filled
beyond its capacity. There are to-day
upon the streets in Denver hundreds Of
young men out of employment. The
same is comparatively true of every por-
tion of the State. The only class of men
who get employment readily and well
paid are mechanics and brick masons.
This is owing to the vast amount of
building and improvements going on in
the city. Although Denver has her die
advantages, still she is mighty city.
Thousands and even millions of dollars
have been made by her citizens with in
the last few years. And thousands of
persons have added length to their days
by coming here.
Most respectfully,
DAVID 4. ZEAGIER.

Board of Directors of ihe Edgeiield and
Trenton Railroad, and made the inspec.
ton In company with thpee gerilemen.
There were sixteen cOnvicts under the
control of the Directors Of this railroad.
One of them was employed as n cook,
and seemed TO be in good health. Three
were sick in hospital, one had & Sentery,
the other two had scurvy and were suf.

the disease was in its incipiency, but
still there was considerable loss of

their work and the same distance back

the cleanliness of the convicts and their
surroundings this may prove sufficient,
as the house is well ventilated by means
of four windows and chimney, and has
no ceiling. Sufficient attention has not
been paid to the diet of the prisoners
under medical tire .tment. The arrange.

ply consisting OF two blankets TO each
man, and plans floor without straw.
These men nre in no condition to with

kind. They have commenced to fail
already, and unless something is done at
once to better their condition many will

prejudice farmers against them AsunIitto

no jacks, aud no disposition to increase
the stock. But Washington became con.
vinced that the introduction of mules
generally among the Southern planters
would prove to them great blessing, az
they are much less liable to be injured
than horses by careless servants. AS
soOn as IL became known abroai that
Washington! desired to stock his Mount
Vernon estate with mules, the King of
Spain sent him two jacka and two jennets
from the Island Of Malta. The first was
of gray color, sixteen handa high,
heavily made, and of sluggish nature.
He was named the Royal Gift. The
other was called the Knight of Malta.
He WIS about as high, aud 1.-THE and fiery
even to ferocity. Ths two sets of ami.
mails gave him the most favorable oppor.
.unity of making improvements by cross
breeding, the result of which was the
favorite jack Compound, because he par.
t0Hk of the best points in both. originals.
The General bred his blonded marea 70
these jacks, ever taking those from his
own stables for that purpose, and pro.
dnced such superb mules that the coun-
try was agcg to breed sorn6f OF the sort,
and they soon became quite common.
This was the origin of improved mules
in the United States. Though over
eighty years -. there ara now some oi

Opium IDrunkards.

The public were shocked not long since
by the account OF the death of lady, the
daughter of one of the most eminent
professional men in this country, from an
overdose of morphine. The wretched
story was published all over tho country.
This woman was young aud beautiful.
She had high culture, aud was by nature
gentle, loving and lovable. A few years
ngo she began to take opium for some
disease, and soon became its victim. All
her struggles against it were vain. At
an age when she should have been in the
full vigor of her womunhood, happy
and retired wife and mother, sne died
alone, and her downfall AMI disgrace
were blazoned in every city Of the I'm
ion.
Opium drunkenness is said to be on
the increase iii this country, and it pre-
walls largely among women. Very few ma
irons or young girls, when suffering from
weakness or nervous disorders, would re-
sort to brandy or whisky. But duse OF
laudanuS,, or some other anodyne, they
regard as harmless.
Physicians, too, hecdlcssly prescribe
something which they vaguely call

girl exhausted by ince,saut dancing and
flirting, when the proper remedies would
be few weeks rest from labor and care.

MIR. GARFIELD AND THE SOUTH
Conjecture and speculation are rife as to
the probable character of Mr.. Garfield's
policy toward the South after he shall
have assumed the Executive helm. 1t
is an essentially proti,less question to dis
cuss as long as the Mentor compact re-
mains shrouded in secrecy.
SO far as Mr.. Garfield is personally
concerned, We have no doubt that If left
to his own instincts, he would Reek 10
treat the Southern States with impartiality
and go down to history as man OF
broad, patriotic views, who had taken
up the policy of amity and frater-
nifty where Abraham Lincoln's Ia.
mented hand left it. Doing this, he
would do much to redeem the errois,
equivocations and lapses from rectitude
that tarnish his past record.
But Mr.. Garfield has always had q
weak joint in his spinal column, and
there ID no reason to believe that his
election has stiffened il 40 as to imbue
him With pluck enough to resist the yoke
of the Stalwart faction. These stand com.
mitted to f0rcible reconstruction of the
South. They say that they will siarve
that section into giving Republican ma.
jorities. Ifit yields, well and good-thC
party will have so many additional vote,
for the next election. If it does not tht
bugahoo of solid South must be aRair
revived to save the Republican party ir

The States have the power to do this, but
Congress must regulate Interstate com.

concludes:
THE POWER OF CORPORATIONS.
Doubtless you arc right in the belief
that public opinion will be in favor of
your movement. Rejecting men cannot
deny its justice. Bu: the influence of
these great corporations can hardly be
calculated. They have methods of dc.

almost invilicible. You have referred
to portions Of their history which proved
this: Some of the State governments
are literally subjugated by them now. 1t
