A PLAN TO SwINDLE FARMERs.-A well-con-
trtved scheme for the dipping OF the farmers
throughout northern New Jersey, taking ad-
Vantage Of the census soon to be made. has
been discovered. Several men, well-dreSSed and
polite In manners, are to start out through the
furil districts few weeks in advance of the
authorized census enumeratorS. They will stop
at the various farm-houses and present blanks
Il The statistics of the farm, such as the bushels
OF wheat raised, number OF cattle, acca5 of land
in process OF cultivation, &C., requesting the
owner TO fill up the spaces. Between the tables
and the foot of the sheet, where the farmer
signs his attestat1on of the statement, is a
blank space, which the bogus statistician will
inform the farmer is for any miscellaneous in
formation which may be gathered. The owner
OF the farm will sign the document without any
suspicion of fraud. In about month the farmer
will receive notice from an adjacent bank that
his note for so, s. so, or 5000. as the case may
be, is due. Bewildered by the strange notice,
he will make inquiries and ascertain that the
socalled census-taker has filled in the blank for
miscellaneous information" with promise to
pay, which, being In the hands Of an innocent
holder, must be paid by the unlucky farmer, as
his ver1table signature is at the bottom.
THREE WEEKS OF MARRIED LIFE.-Robert
RiOtt1, son of the American minister to Central
america under President Grant, was married in
this city on January Is, 1873, to Elizabeth NJ
Codnen. They lived together for three weeks
IN IN Eiityth mr. street when he suddenly desert
last, when he began suit against her for an
absolute divorce, averrtng that she had been
unaWfully intimate with young man named
Levy. Theodore F. Miller, before whom the case
was T. ed, reported in favor Of the plaintiff.
The evidence against Mrs Riotti was given by
man and girl OF II, who as detectives fol-
lowed her and Levy to various places, and on
the evening of the 29th of June last traced them
to the Elysian Fields, Hoboken, where they
were seen sitting together upon a rock. A mo-
ton made yesterday by ex-Judge Fullerton be-
fore Judge Van HOesen to confirm the referees
report was opposed on behalf Of defendant by
Col C. S. Spencer. He laid stress upon Levy's
denial OF the charges made by the detectives,
and the evidence for the defence that at the
time referred to Mrs. Riotu was engaged In her
duties elsewhere. Decision was reserved.-N,

Fossils in the Sierras.

THERE recently came into the posses
sion of Stephen Barton a specimen OF
shale, in which was the impress of two
sea shells. These having been exhibit
ed by him to j. w. A. Wright, a CORE
spondent of the Delta, search was insti-
tuted by Mr.. Wright and DIR. S. G..
George, and large body of fossils were
found more perhaps than all the previ-
Gus discoveries of the kind in the Sierra
Nevada Mountains. The elevation at
which these fossils were feuad is about
ten thousand feet above the sea; and
clearly speaks of the soj0urn of these
formations beneath the ocean. The
structure of the strata in which they ap-
pear now stands vertical, and seems to
have occupied that position for a time
long anterior to the glacial epoch. The
character of the fessils seems to indicate
that they belong to the Silurian age /;
and if SO they carry the date of Califor-
mia formations further back than has
generally been supposed. At point
south of where these fossils are found
the formation dips to the east and APP
proaches a horizontal position as it
joins the granite. Thus mile of strait
fed rock seems to repose beneath the
first appearance of the Silurian, and
will doubtless carry us back to the most
ancient Of geological epochs.-V isalia

A Smart Boy.

THAT quality which leads parents to
praise their children is, IL accompanied
by kindness to them at home, very beau
tiful. 1t is always better to encourage
children than TO be constantly degrad-
ing them with surly abuse. To be sure,
a child may be made slightly conceited,
and sometimes even painfully obtrusive,
but praise is mainly better than blame :;
and it is not always a bad sign when n
man, though bore, asks Theodore
Thomas to "Come up to Yonkers some
time and hear my daughter play The
Bouncing Blue Bells;'" or entertains
Wendell Phillips or Edwin Booth at the
seaside with an imitation of how his
son recites "The Boy Stood on the
Burning Deck" He is probably good
father. He will come up to you and
say: "Here is a good thing for your
paper. My twelve-year-old boy Is very
smart. Come up some evening and
just listen to his jokes. Why, last night
took home q package of molasses tafy
candy, and he said: Ma, that's taffy.'
Now, he has never heard the slang
phrase about giving any one taffy, 80 IL
shows that he jumped to it himself. He
said, ma, that's taffy.' She looked ut
me with queer smile, and shook her
head; but couldn't hold in. I Just
bust. Ma, she couldn't stand It; she
yelled till the tears rolled down. Said
J., ma, that's taffy = and away she went
again, and almost rolled off my chair
It's a good one, and give your paper
the first chance before I tell it down at
the store. "-NeU York Herald.

less Goldfish has been established in Bos-
ton. 1t is an industry that should be
encouraged, and it should also be per-
suaded to include shad in its products.
If it can capture all the shad in our riv-
srs, remove the bones and then replace
the fish in the waters, it will have &C
complished q greater work in the cause
of religion than il it had built cathe-
dral costing $1O,0O0,000. A homeless
shad would not encourage profane
thoughts at the breakfast table and make
more backsliders in a month than could
be reconverted IN year.-NorristotO
