that he had seen nothing of the lady's
husband. 'Your husband is not here

A Miners Secret.

A number of old residents of Denver
remember q venerable Scotch noun
taineer by the name of Mcdonald who
came to the city three or four times
during the war with small donkey,
carrying his personal effects and several
buckskin bags well filled with gold dust.
On such occasions he would deposit in
some of the banks not less then from
SIS, 600 to $4,000. Mcdonald was q
very social and laxative old fellow, but
meyer would reveal the place where he
got mis- gold. Several men undertook to
follow him secretly to learn where he
was going, but all came back without
knowing any more than when they
started, for Mcdonald each time con-
trived to throw them off the trail, and
the men reported that they invariably
lost all traces of him near the White
River, after following him near through
the Ute Pass as far as Middle Park
Whenever Nc Donald came to Denver
he would stop with Frenchman named
Baptiste, and the two were great friends.
One day the Scotchman disappeared on
one of his sudden trips to the noun
tains, which he took 80 much pains to
keep secret, and it was noticed that
Baptiste had gone too. But they had
not departed in company, and hence it
was surmised that the Frenchman had
followed Mcdonald with a view of spy
ing the movements of the old man and
ascertaining from what secret mine in
the mountains he drew his wealth. The
Scotchman never returned, and though
eight years have since passed away,
none Of his Denver friends ever learned
what has become of him. About two
years ago the gentleman to whom the
Republican is indebted for the above
particulars met Baptiste on the street.
He found him morose and sullen man,
and when asked what had become of
bis old Scotch friend. gruthy answered
that he did not know, and turned away.
The recent marvellous reports from
North Park, taken in connection with
the above facts, form stronger ground
for the belief that Mcdonald passed
through the Ute Pass, through Middle
Park and into the North Park, and
years ago discovered the rich deposits,
the existence of which is only now be.
ginning to be suspected.-Deaver (Col. J

Some Cell brated Women.

Women, often debarred from practi.
cal knowledge of certain aspects of life,
yet obtained reflected comprehension
through sympathy. Mrs. Browning
possessed the gift in transcendental
degree; it vibrated on the chord of po-
etc expression in her; Jane Austin and
Charlotte Bronte led retired lives, but
they had the power perpetua]ly to pass
out of their circumscribed individuality
into that of others and the genius to re-
tain and turn to account the fleeing
impressions of their passing contact
with individuals. The 1arlings and the
ornaments Of society are the women
who can throw themselves best into the
interest of the moment. If to this SEN
sitive nature belongs native sincerity,
confidence is attracted, friendships are
perhaps the best type of this gift of
social sympathy allied to a certain real.
ity Of nature. She attracted the best
and the most gifted of her time. When
age had marred her beauty, poverty
succeeded wealth, and partial blindnes,
rendered her infrm, her salon in the
Abbaye aux Bots was still the resort of
the eminent men and women of the
period. She was not q wit, she was al.
wavs somewhat shy, but she had the
wish to win 1oVe rather than admiration
and possessed the tact of drawing out
the best gifts in others. She had the
genius of friendship; her steadfastness
could not be shaken. She incurred
exile because she would visit Mime. de-
Stael against all prudent advice. She
lost the chance of recovering her eye.
sight because she insisted upon attend
ing M. de Ballanche on his death.bed,
and for eighteen years she tended M
de Chateaubriand in his age and infirm-
itY. We would, therefore, say the i'm.
questionable temperament distinguish
ing all sympathetic people is either q
strength or weakness, according to
the character allied to it. AS sympathy
gives an angelic grace to virtue, food to
genius, and steadfastness to social rela-
tionship, 80 it can degenerate into moth
ing but perilous, ovcr-facile sensitive
ness to the passing impressions of the
moment. ..I...:s.r s--.

The Clayton. BulWer Treaty.

and Great Britain entered into a com-
pact defining how they would respec.
lively conduct themselves with record
to an isthmus shi p canal in case any
one should construct it, mutually re.
pu iating the pretence to dominion
over such structure and agreeing to-
gether against the assertion of such
pretence by any one else. The abroga-
ton OF that treaty is now proposed in
congress, and the London Times, as
quoted in our cable dispatches, sets
forth the opinion held in England on
that proposed course. But it can only
be to put the American protection over
an isthmuss canal in the right as to
mere formalities that it is thought
worth while to abrogate the treaty,
since it assuredly has no vitality at the
present time; and why the 1in,es should
trouble itself to protest against the form.
al repeal of law that has not survived
thirty years of momentous history is
not clearly perceptible. In thirty years
that have passed since the Clayton.
Bulwer Treaty was made almost
every great state in the world has
revised its relation to every other
great State. In that time the civilized
world has seen twelve wars, some of
them very great wars indeed. Empires
have risen and fallen, and republics
have been created and have persisted,
and two great nations have made social
changes that are without parallel in
recorded history. None of the changes
made in the world is greater than that
which has resulted from the discovery
the American people bave made Of
their own strength, and of the extent to
which, acting as other nations act, they
may justly assert their pretentions to
Influence the future of this hemisphere.
In 1850 We did not know that we were
the greatest military people in the
world; now we do-foi it is not too
much to say of the nation whose peo-
ole supplied the soldiers for both the
Northern and Southern armies iu our
var, and whose resources carried on
both sides OF that great conflict, that it
has its equal as to those particulars in
any one State in Christendom. From
the standpoint OF new national per.
ceptions on topic of this nature peo-
pie may fairly say that they will guide
their further actions on agreements
made in view Of their present knowl-
edge of themselves, and at least will
not revive forgotten agreements that
we're never put into effect even as to
their prelim,naries.

One Of the essentials to success in
gardening is good seed. It is very vexa.
tious to prepare land with care, ana to
find the plants to come up stunted and
feeble for the want of constitutional
vigor. The laws of heredity hold do
miuion over the vegetable kingdom
with the same force as over the animal,
and thoroughbred seed are as essential
for good crop as pureblooded bulls
are for good breed. It is not so easy
to distinguish pure seed as pure stock,
but there is the same virtue in one as
in the other, and the practiced eye
can easily discern the pure from the
mongrel. .5 5.s
