Kit Oarson's Grave.

Taos, N. NJ, was the home OF Kit
Carson, and the house Of the famous
scout stands near the Plaza. Kit was
once on his way home, and within a
short distance OF Taos. He had not
seen his family, which he loved fondly.
for three years. But he was overtaken
with IA request from the government to
bear some very important dispatches to
the Pacific coast. So he turned about
and started at once. II was four years
more before he returned TO his family.
We walked out to the little cemetery,
standing a most desolate spot amid the
prosperous grain fields Kit had re-
quested to be buried beside his wife,
and there were the graves of the two
in lot inclosed with wooden picket
fence, painted white and the pickets
tipped with black. The grave mounds
are two low, scrawny gravel heaps.
There are no tombstOnes, no inscrip-
tons. nothing to tell who lies below,
and it is not known which grave is
filed by Kit Carson, or which by his
wife. The famous frontiersman was q
reckless gambler; he squandered away
all his money and died penniless, but
the public owes it to his memory that his
grave should be properly marked and
cared for. Boston Herald.

Singular VENGEANCE.

A colored man living near Jesup,
Ca, missing watermelon from his
patch, Immediately set out on the track
of the thief, and soon came upon him
aman about his own size and weight
preparing to eat the melon. whereupon
he told him to lay himself upon the
ground and submit to good thrash
ing, or he would cut his throat. The
thief obeyed, and the owner cut him
three or four black gums and wore
them TO 'fraz" on him, while he ut
tered screams that might be heard for
half mile. "Now," said the owner.
take the melon and march right
through Jesup ahead of me or I'll kill
you" They started, but meeting some
of the neighbors, attracted by the cries
of distress, the owner was persuaded
that he had sufficiently punished the
offender and was advised to let him 90,
which lie did, and returned to his home.
The thief did not 60 far before he sat
down and ate the melon.

WHY American Goods are Preferred.

The growing reputation Of American
manufacturers in the markets of the
world has alarmed competitors abroad.
Whatever Americans undertake, wheth-
err 1t be machine tools, cutlery, silks,
flour, cotton, cloth, or any other mer-
chandise, they make their brands the
leading ones, selling for the most
money, and universally sought after.
The reasons for this are plain. 1t is not
on account of the better and more di-
rect processes employed; it is not by
discarding workshop traditions and
old-time methods; it is not by such adj
ventitious aids that we have achieved
so great an eminence that our trade
marks are counterfeited and foreign
goods are represented as of American
make. 1t is because our manufactur-
ers have found that mercantile honesty
is the only policy, and that when they
attempt TO adulterate or lower the
standard the criticism of competitors
exposes them at once.
American machine tools of iirst-class
makers are not cut in weight or in
workmanship. II is race to see who
shall discover weak part that can be
made stronger, or detail exposed to
wear that can be made more durable.
The same is true of cotton goods and
silks. The senseless weighing of both
with adulterants of one kind or anoth-
er is not practiced here. for experience
teaches our people that the best is the
cheapest. - Mechanical Engineer.

SENATOR NEWMAN created something OF
q sensation yesterday by introducing reso-
lutiOns Condemnatory Of tho course pur.
sued by the Wheeling Register in regard to
the publication OF the proceedings Of the
body Of which no Is member. The
honorables Senator feels personally aggriev-
ed at the course pursued by the Register,
which paper for some reason has chosen
to ignore the part he takes in the proceed
ings, or II It notices them at all does so in
such manner as to inaiCt slight upon
the Senator. We know not to how many
other members the resolution introduced
by Senator Newman applies, but presume
that he Is not the only member.
While such o course on the part Of a
newspaper is superlatively silly, and while
1t may very naturally appeal to the resent
ment Of member Of the Legislature, yet
the Senator's resolution does not give evi.
denCe OF large amount Of selt.control.
We presume that whatever object the
Register had in view in ignoring the Sena.
tor has been attained by the evidence
furnished by himself in his resolution that
he has taken 1t 10 heart.
