meet the town Of Quincy, Plumas county,

raE DISCOVERY ON THE COM
STOCK.

Tie report that an important develop
ment has been made in Sierra Nevada
and Union is generally credited. The
testimony at hand tends to the establish
ment of the same fact. The SENTINEL
belieyes in the existence Of the bonanza,
vhether uncovered now or deferred to q
later day. A good development on the
Comstock will help the whole coast. The
sale for mines in the East has been dull
for a year past. This has been due in a
great measure to the popular belief that
the Comstock had gone to the wall. East
ern people have been saying that the
Comstock, the grandest lode in the world,
has petered out, and therefore we want
nothing more to do with your mines. A
discovery will open their eyes, and purses
too. and in this way . new demand
will be created for mining property. No
doubt Eureka District would be largely
benefited in this ann But general
business on this coast has always wit
messed marked improvement whenever
there has been an upheaval in Comstock
values. The rule applies with as much
force to the mountain towns as to San
Francisco. A reaction and ruinous de-
precision comes along invariably after a
boom, but we are all willing to take
chances on the remote future for a season
Of present prosperity. Hence we shall
hope for the development Of a mammoth
bonanza in the depths Of the Comstock
1t the earliest moment. Senator Fair
will make himself "a bigger man than
old Grant" by showing up a paying
proposition while temporarily in charge
of the north-end mines. Let q little
daylight into the new bonanza, Senator,
and thus cover yourself with glory, or
words to that effect.

The Canadian Postmaster General is

Postmasters Of the Dominion have been

issued psremptory orders for its suppress

GRANTS INDIAN POLICY.

Il is stated that the head of the Indian
Bureau and the Secretary Of the Inte-
rior are both in favor Of the Indian
policy which was begun under the ad-
ministration Of President Grant for Fore
ing the concentration of all the Indian
tribes upon 9 few great reservations and
rapidly stimulating their progress in
civilization. Secretary SEIZURE attempted
to modify this plan somewhat. and has
therefore received the credit of originate
ing II, whereas in point Of fact the idea
proceeded from the mind Of Gen. Grant
when he was President.

The city of Paris having for the Sec
ond time awarded o prize for the best
musical competition, the jury instituted
for the concours received eighteen scores
for examination. The first prize, to be
given to the composer who would re-
ceive eleven votes out of the twenty,
was awarded to M. Duvernay for his
composition on the Tempest" words
after Shakspeare). An honorable men,
ton was conceded to the "~Argonauts,"

votes, and, although she could not be
awarded the first prize, the honorable
mention was decided upon by seventeen
out of the twenty rotants.
The size of some of the largest

1t is the opinion of the Rev. j. G.
Wood, a popular English writer on ma
tural history, that the cockroach and
red ant, which abound in England as in
this country, are not Indigenous there,
but were imported in merchandise from
America. The numbers Of ants are so
great in some houses a to render the
buildings uninhabitable. The houses
have had the floor relaid, cement and
porcelain ties used wherever possible.
but the house ants have retained possess
sion Of the premises. The passages to
their nests are SO small that boiling wat
or loses its heat long before the few
drops which can tricEe through them
can touch the nest. Insect powder is
equally useless. and sulphur smoke has
no terror for these insects.

The Earth Driving I'm.

There Is abundant evidence that the
amount of water on the surface of tho
earth has been steadily diminishing for
many thousands of years. No one
doubts that there was time when the
Caspian sea communicated with the
Black sea, and when the Mediterranean
covered the greater part of the Desert
of Sahara. In fact biologists tell us
that at one period the whole Of the earth
was covered by water, and the fact
that continents of dry land now exist is
proof that there is less water on our
globe now than there was in its infancy.
This diminution of our supply of water
is going on at the present day at rate
so rapid as TO be clearly appreciable.
The rivers and smaller streams of our
Atlantic states are visibly smaller than
they were twenty-five years ago. Coun-
try brooks in which men now living
were accustomed to fish and battle in
their boyhood, have in many cases to-
tally disappeared, not through any act
of man, but solely in consequence of
the failure of the springs and rains
which once fed them. The level of the
great lakes is falling year by year.
There are many piers on the shores of
lake side Giles which vessels once APP
preached with ease, but which now
hardly reach to the edge of the water.
Harbors are everywhere growing shall
lower. This is not due to the gradual
deposit of earth brought down by riv-
ers or refuse from city sewers. The
harbor of Toronto has grown shallow
In spite of the fact that it has been
dredged out 50 that the bottom rock has
been reached, ard all the dredging that
can be done to tue harbor of New York
will not permanently deepen il. The
growing shallowness of the Hudson is
more evident above Albany than it is in
the tide-water region and, like he out
let Of Lake Champlain, which was once
navigable BY Indian canoes at all sea-
sons, the Hudson is now almost bare of
water in many places during the sum-
mer. In all other parts of the world
there is the same steady decrease of
water in rivers and lakes, and the rain
fall in Europe, where scientific observa-
tons are made, is manifestly less than
it was at period within mans memory.
What is becoming of our waterp Obvi-
ously it is not disappearing through
evaporation, for in that case rains would
give back whatever water the atmos-
phere might absorb. We must accept
the theory that, like the water of the
moon, our wator is sinking into the
earth's interior. -NeW York Times.
