The school children of Dayton &C
companid by their teachers and a
large number of others, old and
young, went en a grand picnic cx
cursion last Saturday. The place Sc
lected for the rendezvous was Charley
q ull's ranch, situated about four
miles southeast of Dayton, up z Do
rado Canon. The children were tax
en- to and from the grounds free Of
charge, some cnterprising citizens
Messrs. Kennedy, Randall and 10th
rop-having contri ,uted teams and
money for the purpose.
The participants seemed to emily
themselves thoroughly, though the
grounds orc mot over well calculated
for picnic purposes There came
very near D6f6s az dccid6nt on tlie
grounds about lunch time, but the
matter was safely bridged over. joins
Lothrop is said to have been the pri
mary cause Of the prospective catas
trophe. he endcagored to get Il
corner on the lunch business, an en-.
deavor which was promptly and sue
cessfully opposed, III ugh not until
he had disposed of a quantity sufi
client for at Fetst'teh men. He will
eat no more for about two weeks.
The party arrived home safely,
coming into town with coiors hying
and amid strains of music, heartily
participated iu by all hands.
Mr.. Qdi'tac'ed the part Of host
most creditably. H kept open house
and attended to the various wants Of
his guests in true Western style. In
testimony Of their appreciation oe
his kindness and generosity rnusing
vote Of thanks was tendsrcd him be

Altogether, it was very pleasant

&uspsctins anrDefencsss al

The insufficiency Of our harhor de-
fences Is ludicrously apparent when
such an inspection as that of the Sec
rotary 81 War and Gen. Sherman
yesterday is made. The meagreness
aud almost absolute worthlcssness Of
much Of what is rcckoned among the
harbor tiefences must have provoked
the secret derision of Gen. Sherman
and the experienced warriors " no nc
companied him. Were it not that
the inspection may result in recon
mendations that will give New York
harbor better defences, the formal
review Of Secretary Ramsey and Gen.
Sherman would seem almost absurd.
The inspection has its importance in
its consideration Of what defences
our harbor must have, and not in any
review of wha: it now possesses. The
distinguished inspectors must haye
been impressed with tho declaration
of the Chamber Of Commerce, in its
last annual report, that the condition
of the defences of New York Harbor
is such as to expose us to injury from
naval incursious, and to place Repub-
lican institutions in risk of the con
tempt of the Old World. 1t is to bo
hoped that the wretched insufficiency
of what are almost ironically called
our harbor defences, so much i'm
pressed Secretary Ramsey and Gen.
Sherman, that they will not cease
their recommendations of a provision
for improvements until New York
Harbor has deences which will af
ford it security from all assaults, and
command the respect of the navies Of
the world.-N. Y. Mail.

Decay of The Teeth

Arises from various causes, but prin-
cipally it.may be attributed to carly
neglect OF the indiscriminate use of
