Kearney "a Working Man" by APP

Dennis Kearney, the San Francis

Was arrested last week on q charge
of using incendiary language in his
sand-lot harangues, was to-day ar
ralgned before the Police Court of
that city, and his followers, and was
sentenced to six months hard labor
IN the House OF Correction and to
pay fine of 81, 900, and TO remain
in prison till paid. His lawyers will
now try to get him out. by writ of
habeas corpus, in order to bring his
case before tho State Supreme Court.

Is it or not probable that all me-
tallic veins may be but pseudo
morphs, i. o. molecular variations on
previously existing and to the CON-
mon eye less developed mineral
masses ? An inspection of the very
curious specimens of altered miner
ala TO be met with in Mr.. VIM. Il.
Henry's cabinet has suggested the
above interrogatory. We there see
our familiar "tiff" in some cases
wholly and in others partially con.
verted iato or replaced by one and
another of our metals-now drybone
now galena. The idea is pushed
forcibly upon usthat possibly under
the occult agency of the earth's
electrical currents there may happen
bslow what the alchymists dreamed
a transmutation of the metals.
The discovery OF Lockyer, q few
years ago, that under cstain condi.
tons of experiments. the metal cal.
olum responded to the spectroscope
in manner precisely similar to
copper, nickel, TO cobalt, and CAL
ciam, TO strontium, points to the
same idea.
This conception as to the possible
way in which our mineral veins
may have come about rids the
problem in these parts of much that
has seemed iucongruous. According
to this, our hunt for mineral is .
pursuit of what have been the
marked lines of molecular change
in times gone by. What we have
primarily TO look out for, is meta.
morphism within the rocks. The
conditions of it being the same, we
sre justified in expecting like fruits.
And now as to the bearing of
this upon the Lower Magnetism
question. DO the rocks below our
present level of mining show signs
in streaks of molecular change I?
And 10 the L.. M where conditions
of change may be presumed to have
been similar to those in the dolom-
lites above, see we the rocks re-
markedly etamorphosed or trans.
formed See Percivars I'd Report. }

SEVERAL of the New England

Colleges. called into existence by IN

not too much to say that most of

We believe that it is the duty of the
State TO encourage agriculture. This
particularly is the case in New En-.

done by educating young men for
the professions at school called an
agricultural college. 1t may be done
by score of methods. One gentle.
man in this city, Mr.. Stillman B.
Allen, by offering 5000 in premiums
to boys under Is years of age in his
native country in Maine who by
theis own labor, would raise the
most corn from an eight of an acre,
induced 178 boys to enter the list.
OF this number 1873 raised an aver.
age OF 100 bushels of corn TO the
acre. One raised at the rate of 100
bushels and several at the rate of lao
bushels to the acre. The same
gentleman has increased the prizes
and will invite all the boys of Maine
to compete. At least 500 farmers

Times and Seasons for Marriage.

The Romans were very supersti..
tious as to the days and seasons
when marriages should be celebrat-
ed. The Kalends, Nones and ides
of every month were strictly avoid
ed. The most fortunate time in the
whole year for marrying was that
which followed the Ides of June.
The sum and substance of all the
popular belief that governs the
choosing of the appointed hour in
the present age is briefly contained
10 in two rules: "Who marries be,
tween the sickle and scythe viii
never thrive" is one. The other
the hackneyed lines:
Monday for wealth,
Tusday for health,
Wednesday the best day Of all:
Thursday for crosses,
Friday for losses,
Saturday no luck at all.

THERE was a resolution before the

Constitution to prohibit the traffic in
intoxicating liquors. VIM. II. Price,

the same under consideration and reports the
same back with the recommendation that the
same be colcurred in.
Your committee would prefer that the pro-
posed amendment was wider in its scope and
more general in its application, believing that
the whole liquor traffic is a national disgrace
aud traught with consequences destructive
and degrading.
Tha, the exemption of beer and native
wines from the operation of the proposed
amendment is on = parallel with saving that
disease and death may be encouraged in a
mild form, but not otherwise that murder,
perjury or robbery should be encouraged on
u small scale, but should not be permitted to
any considerable extent that small snakes
should be encouraged to live, and the rearing
of them be made legitimate industry, while
larger reptiles shall be placed under the
ban Of the law.
But if this legislature is unable to take a
robust, manly strive toward good govern
