DEATH or PAUL MORRILL,.

The last survivor OF the publishing
frm Of the old Sacramento Union. Paul
Morrill,, died at his residence in San
Francisco on Thursday. the 9th instant,
aged IS years. Deceased was q Of the
Oldest publishers in the State. having
been q Of the proprietors Of the old
Sacramento Union as early a. 1851. and
continuing a. such. with the exception
Of one year. up to the sale Of that sstab.
lishmsnt to the Record proprietors. He
was . man Of generous impulses, Of
public spirit. and thoroughly convers-
ant with the duties Of journalism. He
was . printer himself. and in the early
days OF his proprietorship Of the Union
worked steadily at the case.
Mr.. Morrill, was born at Hillsboro,
New Hampshire. in 1912; worked Is .
j~ournsyman printer in New York. and
at one time published the Trus Sun. He
came 10 California In 1850. and after
working on the Ala for Q while pur.
chased an interest in the old Union.
Although hs had been in the receipt
OF . large income for many years from
ths Union. he had laid up little. so hs
was glad. in 1877. 10 accept the appoint
ment Of Surveyor OF tho Port. secured
for him by Newton Booth, who was
much indebted to the Union for his els-
walton to the Office Of Governor in 1871
and to that Of United States Senator in
1875. and which position Mr.. Morrill,
occupied at the time Of bis death.
The following tribute to the Union
and the man who directed its straight.
forward course Is from the pen Of Mr..
Seabough OF the Chronicle. who was for
years the Unions chief editorial writer /:
elm whatever course their paper was
committed TO. Its proprietors were ruled
by what in their judgment Vas best for
the country-for the ~people-the common
people, and most In conformity with
truth and Justice. When the last Of the
leading editorial writer's for the Uaion
made his appearance at that Office. on the
18th Of July. 1861. to take charge Of the
position to which he had been called. 10
fell TO Paul Morrill, to give him his frst
general instructions. Said Mr.. Morrill,:
You know the past course Of this paper.
We wish you to follow Il a. closely Is you
can. Be Just to everybody. Never strain
the truth. Do not mince your words when
you have TO attack . great wrong; but.
above al things, the Union IL the friend Of
tho common people and the enemy Of their
enemies. high or low. rich or poor. And
that II al ! have to say now These In
struotions outline the character Of the old
Unios. and Of Paul Morrill, a. Q publisher.
They we're his views Of right. and in them
his two partners wholly eoncurred. They
supply the clue to the immense popularity
and power Of that paper. hated a. IL Wa

Mr.. Morrill, leaves . wife. three sons
and two daughters. all residing In San
Francisco, except the eldest. who is in
Boston.

A Vampire From Asia.
Toledo On Commerclal.

Ina store in Summit street may he
seen an animal the like of which few
people in Toledo have ever seen. 1t is
a monster South Asia vampire, the
much dreaded blood sucker of that
country. This rare creature, perhaps
the only living specimen of the kind in
this country, is about one and hall
feet long, has pair OF piercing black
eyes which shine like diamonds. a
double row of sharp teeth similar to
those of the weasel, and its powerful
wings, when stretched full length meas.
ure "a feet from point to point. The
vampire hangs suspended from a bar in
the center of its cage by pair of for
midable claws, and when in repose re-
sembles Il closed umbrella; its body is
covered with a comfortable coat Of
brown fur, while its beautifully proper
toned head, which has remarkable
similarity to that of IL diminutive black
and.tan terrier dog, is surmounted by a
pair of large, shell shaped ears. This
strange creature is almost totally blind
during the day, but at night its little
eyes twinkle with astonishing brillian-
cy. The vampire is kept ina tempera-
ture Of about 20 degrees i'll order to
conform AS nearly as possible with the
climate of his native home.

Pepper for Moths.
New York Times.

A word in season, ii it is the right
word, regarding moths, Will be equiva.
lent in utility 10 the old adage. "A
stitch in time saves nine" An obscure
student OF economic houSewiiery, who
has sttentiyely regarded for series of
years the sction of different vegetable
substances ON the life and destruction
of insects, has discovered the proper
food for the greedy moth, all mouth.
1t is cheaper than camphor or tobacco,
has no smell and is always available. A
pound or two or three Of black pepper,
ready pulverized for table use, scattered
freely among your turs and wooens,
can easily be shaken all out in the
autumn by some hand, willing and hap
Ply to be hired to sneeze, and the gar
ments will be found unipjured. A
lady who packed up her personal effects
i'll the loose confusion OF too little time
and strength to devote thereto, hurried
them off to one Of our great store
houses, and left them untouched dur
ing an absence of three years. She had
tossed the pepper with random lavish
ness through each trunk. box and de-
fenseless bag of bundles. She found
her fur.trimmed and all.wool garments
perfectly unframed after their three
years of extra exposure among the
quantities of other families goods &C.
cumulated in the proper moths board
ing.house. Not only this triumph;
another diyulged experience brings to
light handsome muff, which, being
superseded Ivy other furs to match
suits, escaped us for fifteen or twenty
years, and was seldom looked at. Well
peppered, and without other extra
care, it is clean, fresh and unchanged
to-day. An economic object attained,
better a few cachinatory occasions, and
funny profusion of sorrowless tears,
or an hours humbug cough, in looking
over trunk, If it earns money faster
than 1t can be earned in any other way.
In fact, this is the chief way in which
pepper should be used, unless one
wants tc scare the moths out Of
ones stomach at the cost of wearing
out and burning up the delicate tissues
of the inner man. Pepper to be trod-
den under foot in the shoes on cold
journey, or i'll case OF constitution
where the blood needs to be coaxed
down to the feet, is, indeed, useful also;
but the evident chief object OF nature
in providing black pepper is to defend
mankind from powerful robbers, Of
form and color so indefinite that even
in the matter of identity they often
deceive their most familiar victims.

Travelling Stones in Nevada.

The curious travelling stones OF Aus
tralia are paralleled in Nevada. They
are described as almost perfectly round
and about as large as walnut. When
distributed about upon the floor, table
or other level surface, within two or
three feet of each other, they immed-
lately begin travelling toward common
center and there lie huddled up in a
bunch like lot of eggs in a nest. A
single stone, removed to distance OF
