Making a Dog Drunk.

AS an evidence thai whlskcv is an
infalliblc antidotc against poison, we
will state that Mr.. j. IL. Jackson,
while out on the prairie some few
days ago with mis- fine bloodcd hunt
ing dogs, had one of them bitten by
an enormous moccasn snake. The
reptile fastened his fangs on the edge
OF the dogs tongue, from which per-
feet stream of blood issued. Such
was the force of the virus that the
wound inflicted became instantly
black. and the dogs tongue and low
er jaw had commenced swelling rap
idly and alarmingly. The owner, hav-
ing with him flask of whxkey, lost
no time in pouring down the animals
throat about onc-half of it. As soon
as the whiskcy took effect the dog lay
stretched out as if dead, but he was
only d unk, as he soon revived from
his stllpor and was seemingly as well
rs ever. The place struck by the
snake rottcd and fell out.

1t is often complained that the man
ners of school children nowadays are
not so respectful as they were years
ago. 1t is within the memory Of us
all when a stranger passing a country
district school while the children were
at play, would be salutcd with polite
bows and taking off hats. At the
present time the passer by i'll country
districts is about as apt to be salutcd
with cat-cals or even chunks of mud
or pebbles as with bows. Whose
fault is it if children are not as re-
spectful and polite in our public
schools as formerly-thc teachers or
the parents? Probably 1t is the fault
of both.

During the period between the first
of January, 1868, and the close of jan
uary, 1879, the principal nations of lu-
rope, with the exception of Great Brit
ain and Holland, increased their ma
tional debts. In 1865, the total debt
of seventeen European powers was
12,5O3, ,330, 600, and at the end of 1879
it had reached the almost countless
sum of $50, 0i,09G, 900, even SWtzer-
land having jumped from S7l4,O00, to
S6, 1000
1t is Il matter worth noting by the
people of the United States, and worth
even display of pride, that while the
debts of European nations have, du-
ring the past eighteen years increased
over eight thousand millions their
own national debt has been steadily
decreasing. On the 30th June, 1865,
the national debt of the United States
was -, ,6S2, ,593, ops, and on April |, 1850,
it had been reduced to < lSo;3S3, S2i, Il
reduction in less than fifteen years OF
NJO2, 200, 202. BY reduction of the in
terest rate joined with reduction of the
debt, the total interest charge is now
hardly more than half what it was fif-
teen years ago.
The reduction of the debt during
March last, as shown by statement
issued on the first of the present month,
was Sll,7l9, 397,-a prodigiouS reduc-
ton for single month. 1t is the sign
of resumption of rapid reduction of the
debt, since payment of the great sums
required for arrears of pensions. he.

The English Elections.

Beaconsfield is defeated in the par
liamentary elections and his ministry
flung out. He is to far advanced in
the age of seventy-siX with his twin
ter weight of years. pressing upon
him, he cannot expect To return to
power, and his sun will go down III
clouds and storm. This would be n
humlating end of SO brilliant career,
The height to which he has risen from
beginning which had so little prom
ise is one of the marvcls of modern
politics. For the son of mere Lttoro-
teur, and that NHcrdtclW IA jew, tn have
risen to the great position of prime
minister is the most wonderful success
ever achieved in English politics. but
when such a career ends in disaster
and humiliation history is TO apt to
regard ii ~ final exposure of a con
summate charlatan. Beaconstield has
owed his success to all sorts of small
dexterities. BY flattering the queen
with the pompous title of "Emprcss,o
India" by sl>illfully playing upon her
prepossessions and sense of importance
in every possible way, by initiating
the John Bull pride of denomination
in distant countries, Beaconsficld's
political legerdemain has kept him in
power during long administration.
His wonderful display of political rock
cts will merely leave remembrance
of smeared and smoking sticks which
drop down at the end of the perform
ance.

Fight with n Sea Lion.

Recently at Skipanon, Oregon, an
old Indian named Wall-Ce-te, went
down to the rocks Il short distance be-
low the Seaside House to gather mus
sells. While there he discovered Il sea
lion asleep on rock near the shore.
Procuring a short club and divesting
himself of his garments, he swan
quietly to the rock and stealing up TO
the lion made an effort TO dispatch
him with his club, but while in the
act of striking the fatal blow, his feet
slipped on the Shiny rock and he fell.
The lion thus rudely disturbed from
his quiet nap pounced upon his pros
trate enemy, seizing him by the arm
above the elbow with his teeth, lacer-
ating and tearing the bone from the
flesh in terrible manner and INFECT
ing several other wounds and bruises
upon the person Of the poor Indian.
After desperate struggle the Indian
succeeded in getting loose from the
nraged monster, and swimming
ashore managed 10 reach home in this
torn and bleeding condition almost
exhausted, where he has lain for over
n week unable to partake of any food
or nourishment, and is not expected
to live.

The Itcligenccr says: An old prac-
tical quartz miner of twenty-sevcn
years experience, named Alexander,
went up the Skagit river in quest of
gold. He went to Ruby creek and took
up claim without prospecting. on ac-
count of the snow, and started in search
of quartz. While coming down the
Sllagit he noticed an ovcrhanging rocl;
which looked like quartz, and, ap-
preaching it, examined ii closely. The
result was the discovery of very large
and undoubtedly rich vein of gold
bearing quartz. With hammer he
broke up Il quantity Of the rock and
brought Il sack full to this city, which
he has since sent to Portland for analy-
sis. In many pieces OF this rock the
gold can be seen with the naked eye.
Mr. Alexander proceeded to take a l,500
foot discovery claim, under existing
mining laws, and went down the Sound
last night to have it recorded. The
ledge is distinctly traceable on both
sides of the Sllagit, that river cutting
il in two. ~ the ledge is on the bank
of navigable stream, and very eNtcn-
sive, Mr. Alexander says that should
the ore only yield an average of ST.
per ton, it would be Il very profitable
mine.
