How Emerson Writes.

BY describing how E.nerson's ESSAYS are
made you will understand them the better.
Like other great. men he keeps a common
place book or diary he puts in this what
ever interests him at the time without refer
ence to further use if he sees a sentence
that pleases him while reading, he notes it
down II he takes a walk and sees ANYTHING
winch suggests a thought which he wishes to
preserve, lie puts it down if he IS writing a
letter and he pens a sentence which arises
naturally, he puts that down if he visits a
picture gallery, or wherever he goes, he Totes
down all he wishes to remember. All these
Things which he notes down have an intrinsic
value, hut they need a setting: He does not
let any OF these sentences drop. How then
TO arrange and string together these pearls ?
lie EMPLOYS no logic in this, they are gems
when he has set them. That is his art. He
copies them on paper and sees how they will
come together. One jewel after another is
examined until he finds ole which he thinks
will do in a certain place. After having ar
ranged his lecture he goes on the platform
and dips in at the fifth or sixth paragraph,
perhaps, according rs he feels. He is apt to
begin in the middle or toward the end of his
lecture, as he has arranged it beforehand, a I'd
go backward US any way. After having tried
his lecture in this way four Or five times, it is
printed and goes before the public,
There Is no conference in his ESSAYS. Each
paragraph is written at a time and is COM
pleted in itself. Whatever he writes is finish
ed and good, but he considers every sentence
well before it is put on paper, il is slept upon,
dreamt on, and they are printed just as his
audience have heard them. A lawyer or d.
v'ne would begin with a beginning and pro-
ceed according to logic, but he works by ana.
logic. In pictures each paragraph must be
read carefully to get the value of it. You
can't read one of his books at a sitting and
get good out of it. Every word almost mutt
be pondered over. Emerson is now seventy.
seven years of age, but he seems to have all
his wits about him, except the loss OF memo
ry for proper nouns. That he will write any
more is not probable but he has writ
ten a great deal which has not yet been
published, and we shall probably have
as much new as he has already printed. An
intelligent editorials been engaged to publish
his writings after his "eath. EmersOn's voice
is very charming. and no one can forget it
who has once heard him lecture.-A. b. A.

Low Grade Ores.

The problem, "can low grade ores be made
to pay" is the most important one to our
mining population, inasnIlch AS nearly every
camp has al abundance Of low q AIDE ores
while there are few, comparatively, high
glade ore mines, the method of working low
grade is much more important than the 9TH
er. In California, We are rapidly solving this
question with RESPECT to the gold ores, as will
be seen from the following extract from the
~semi-annual report Of the English company

Assassin GuiteaH j.

WASHINGTON, Oct. IL District At
torney Corkhill said tonight that the
arraignment of Guiteau would probably
not take place this week, certainly not
tomorrow. The District Marshal
served the customary legal notice of
the Indictment, together with list OF
the witnesses for the prosecution, upon
Guiteau in the Jail this afternoon. The
prisoner is entitled to two days time
after receiving this notice in which to
prepare for arraignment. 1t is the in
tention of the District Attorney to af-
ford him and his counsel ample time to
prepare so there need be no unneces-
sary delay in procuring witnesses after
the trial has commenced, and for this
reason he has decided not to hasten the
arraignment.

the victory of Foxhall. His winnings
are said to be upwards of 100000, and
operators of the sporting proclivities
have won all the way from $1,000 to
$4,000. Keene himself says Foxhall

deal of money was on him. Walton, of
the St. James Hotel, of this city, sends
a message from England-or what he
purports to be such is exhibited-stat-

Confession OF the Train Robbers

| Confession OF the Train Robbers.
| & LITTLE Rock, Oct. 1.-THE trair
robbers-Cox, Delaney and Monroe
were placed in the penitentiary last
evening, and have been the center OF
attraction since. They are in good spir.
its and take their sentence coolly. The
eldest Delaney has slight black mus
tache; the others none at all. Monroe,
who has given his age as between six
teen and seventeen years, appears even
younger. All appear like ordinary coun-
try boys. Cox and Monroe are printers,
having worked in a printing Office at
San Augustine, Texas, prior to the rob
berry. In an interview, Delaney said,
in substance eve are all poor boys,
and live at San Augustine. We have
good relatives there, and hope they will
never hear of our disgrace. All of US
We're in love, and the girls loved us.
We had no money and did not see how
we could support them if we married
We were determined to get married,
and SO laid our plans to get money.
We read about the James boys in pa
pers and books, and saw how easy it
was to rob trains and get away, and de-
cided to rob train. We left home
three weeks ago yesterday, coming di-
rect to Arkansas. After robbing the train
we did not think we would be pursued.
We were going back home with our
money, and then marry our girls and
settle down. We had no accomplices,
and planed the whole thing ourselves.
We only got $4,000 OR $4,000 in cash
from the express car, the rest being in
bank checks, and kept the bulk of
this. All Of it, with the..exception of a
few dollars, Was stolen by the men who
captured us, and hope they will be
sent to keep US company. 1 am sorry
we failed to get away, but we acted like
a parcel of fools after we got the money,
and so have no one to blame but our
selves"

Men who are getting to be old re-
member the theory invented and pub
Iished by one Symmes, when they were
young, that beyond the icy barriers Of
the Arctic and Antarctic regions the
earth was hollow, and that an open sea
led to the interior, where there was a
warm climate, a continent peepled and
producing abundance of animal and
vegetable life. A son of this philoso-
pher lives in Kentucky, Americas
Symmes, and he is thoroughly con-
WINGED Of the paternaI theory, but he
cannot convince the people who put
money into Arctic explorations. He
memoralized the Navy Department to
be sent in some capacity on one of the
expeditions, but his request was de-
MED. This Americas Symmes sent to
Lieutenant Berry, in command of the
steamer Rodgers, which recently sailed
for the relief Of the Jeanette, informing
Lieutenant Berry what he would come
to if he could penetrate beyond the SD
degree of latitude. A. S. is thoroughly
convinced of the truth Of his fathers
theory, and in the letter to Lieutenant
Berry, he says:
When the SD degree is reached you
will find much open water, and the
needle will have reversed its position.
so that the north will be behind you.
When the SD degree is reached you
will find the open Polar Sea, warm
and genial climate, and more water
fowls and wild animals than can be
found anywhere else in creation. The
Symmes theory further teaches that if
you steam out into the open sea and
run south by your compass you will
find rich country, well timbered,
large rivers, and a people such as Wig
gins and Tuttle found, that look like
Jews and speak Hebrew (no doubt the
lost tribes of lsrael.) Symmsonia is the
name my father intended to give it,
and if you find it please give it that
name.
