Marrying for Love.

The man who marries for love has
generally the vital tcmperament-is
combativc, sagacious, and Independent,
and takes a general view of everything.
A life of Incidence and stagnation
has no charms for one whose blood is
warm and whose hopes are high; he
likes to be in the thickest of the fight,
giving blows and taking them; watch
ing for the turn of events with cool
ness and foresight; pleased at his own
independence and struggles; eager to
show the world what he can achieve
and the contest rouses all the strength
and manliness of his nature.
He wins the respect of his fellows
by his own worth. He often brings
home pleasant surprises for his wife
and children. You may recognize him
in trains loaded with parcels, which he
goOd-naturedly carries with perfect un-
concern of what others think-a new
bonnet, music, books, a set of furs for
his wife; while in another parcel the
wheels of cart, jack-in-the-box, a
doll, or skipping.rope intrude through
the paper and suggest the nursery.
He never forgets the dear ones at
home; the humaniZing influence of that
darling red-cheeked little fellow who
calls him father brings glow of
rapture of the purest pleasure earth
holds; for the man who has never felt
a tiny hand clasp his will always lack
something-he will be less human, less
blessed than others.
This is the noble, the honest, the only
form of life that imparts real content
ment and joy, that will make death
bed glorious, and love see peace through
its tears. 1t is so purely unselfish, SO
tenderly true, it satisfies the highest in
stincts, it stimulates men to the best
deeds they are capable of.
BY studying how to live we best
know how to die; and the finest life is
that which ministers to others needs
and increases the joys of those depend
ent on us, whom we love, and who
look to us for support, solace, and light
even as the earth is revivified by the
sun; for feeling is life, the pulsation ol
delicious sympathy, the spring in ;
desert, the mamma from the skies.

n' we have no hint as yet. Grocl,er

" G. account, or any other
except the Western Develop
ment, but finally receded, urging, how
ever, that he should make his report as
he went along, and take away no notes
of the account. He found the accounts
and system of bookkeeping very conf
plicated. Discovering no books of the
Contract and Finance company, he
looked through the account of its Sue
cesSor, S. III. ii. & c., and the Western
Development company; examined the
stock-books of the Southern and Cen
tral Pacific, and to a limited extent the
accountsiOf the Pacific Improvement.
The principal item which he discov-
ered was that on December 81, 1879,
the assets of the Western Development
company, taking the stock and bonds
at par, and including some that was
not delivered, amounted to $22,8I0,-
5OO.43. He also states distinctly that
the stock of the Western Development
company, that is the amount loaned or
deposited by Stanford, Huntington,
Hopkins, and Crocker, as working capi-
ital, is not included in the aggregate.
1t will probably be conceded by the av-
erage business man, that for concern
which had distributed $21 100000 in
dividends, switched $20,000,000 off on
profit and loss balance, and been side
tracking regularly to its four deposit
OrS interest at from to 10 per cent,
this is pretty solid residuum. AT the
same time the "liabilities" of these par.
ties Ito themselves) was $11, ,316, 49,. %.
The figures are SO large as to stagger
comprehension, but the mind can grasp
the fact that by hook or crook railroad
ing has been profitable to Stanford
Crocker, Huntington, and Hopkins.

The Star of Empire.

The San Francisco Bulletin of tbe
9th inst, in an article entitled. "The
Next Ten Years" has the following
"At present the Argonauts are goino
South, bringing up first in Arizona and
New Mexico, and afterwards in Sonora
and other northern states of Mexico
This current of immigration is mostly
stimulated by mining interests. Apri.
culture attracts very few. One in ten
may get hold of mining propertv ot
some real value. AS for the rest. they
will .Rnd employment of one kind and
another. A few will straggle back
again. The greater part will settle
down in these remote places, because
after great deal of wandering thew
will accept the conclusion that one
country is as good as another, and the
best perhaps is that which has the few
est climatic exactions. There will he
a great mineral development not only
in Arizona, but in Sonora and all the
upper tier of Mexican states during the
next ten years. If there is anything in
the famous mines of these states.
American capital and enterprise will
get it out"
With this conclusion, all who have
given the matter consideration and
watched the current of events and the
flow of the tide of immigration, cannot
but agree. Instead of, as heretofore
the star of empire taking its way west.
ward, its inclination is evidently south
ward, with no probability that its
course will ever be changed. 1t shown
over prairie and desert, luxuriant lands
and burning wastes, snow-clad noun
talns where eternal winter reigned, and
flowing wales bathed in the vivifyinp
sunlight of perennial spring until its
course was stayed upon the shores of
the Pacific where it paused, hesitated,
and at length concluded that the wintry
regions of the north were not inviting.
and a retrograde movement was incom-
patlble with progression, and that fur
ther advance westward was undesir-
able If not impracticable, and thus,
after mature consideration of all the
facts and circumstances of the case
as lawyers put Undetermined TO make
its shining way towards the effulgent
home of the Southern Cross. In this
direction it is now wheeling along with
incredible velocity. Arizona and New
Mexico have already sprung into vigor-
GUS life and energetic activity under its
benignant rays, and ere long, we have
every reason to conclude, the home
of the Aztecs will begin to feel
its energizing influence and leap into a
prominent position amongst the nations
of the earth. "What the relations of
Mexico will be to the United States ten
years hence can only be matter of
conjecture. The logic of present facts
points to Il closer relation than was
ever known before. Identity of inter
estS, when once demonstrated, settles a
great many questions which before that
time might have been doubtful"

The Pocahontas Oak

Philadelphia Saturday Night.
Point of Rocks, Va, is name given
to an indefinite extent of territory, and
is so called from abrupt cliffs which
jut out into the Appomatox. 1t has an
historic interest. The "Pocahontas
Oak" large tree, stands on the point
which gives name to the place. Near
it is the stump of still larger oak, and
to the base of the cliff the trunk and
limbs have fallen. Under this old tree,
Pocahontas is said to have saved the
life of Captain John Smith, the pioneer
explorer, in early Virginia times. Ac-
cordingly, the relic hunters all visit the
old tree, and each, with chip, block
or limb. walks off with his booty.
Crosses. rings and canes are wrought
from it, and shown as the souvenirs of
the Indian maiden and chivalrous
knight. Still, it is questionable
whether either of them ever saw this
tree. Its site is romantic enough to
have been the royal ground of the great
Powhatan. But the historian informs
us that this chief made his home west
of Richmond, at least twenty miles
from this oak; and it is also more prob
able that Smith, after his survey of the
Chickahoriny, on which river he was
taken, came near suffering death from
the Indians club at Powhatan's home.
Besides we are told that tradition has
claimed for several places in Virginia
the honor of being the scene of this
event, as in ancient times seven cities
claimed the honor of being the birth.

Topers.

"The Americans" says George A.
Sala, summing up the observations of a
hurried trip, "are not convivial peo-
pie, in one sense of the term. They
may be gregarious in taking drinks all
around, but they drink standing, rap
idly, and often silently, and then hurry
away from the bar; while ON the bar
itself are placed, little bowls containing
coffee berries, or aromatic lozenges, by
chewing or sucking which topers are
able to disguise the odor of alcohol. In
no other country in the world does such
a curiously hypocritical custom as this
obtain; but it is only part of habit of
general deceit, which systems of pro-
hibition or partial prohibition or local
option have engendered."
