They tell a story Of Gov. Morgan, who
das declined to be Secretary Of the Treas
ury, that will astonish those who believe
that all Republican officials are corrupt,
and that it is their habit to spend all the
money they get, whether or no. When
he was governor the legislature Of New
York appropriated 100000 for GER
tain purpose. it being estimated that this
amount was necessary. Gov. Morgan
completed the lob for 40, 900 and returned
1894 600 to the treasury.

It will come as a surprise to the public
to learn that Sweden is threatened with a
famine. This state of things is largely
due to the preponderance Of large estates
in the hands Of capitalists. One bad har-
vest, like that of the present year, quickly
exhausts the scanty savings of the peas
antry, who are nearly all in debt, and for
want of improved implements and fertiliz-
ers cannot compete with the mobiles and
churchmen who own the big estates

London has over four million inhabi-
tants, and yet during the year 1880 there
were but seventeen murders; during 1879
but nine. Perhaps one reasonwhy Amer
lean cities have such a comparatively
greater number of criminals of this grade
is the uncertainty of their punishment
even when detected.

specify, they are treated considerably
worse right in the city of New York,
where poor people frequently starve ii

undoubtedly more suffering among the
poor, through the negligence of the rich

Gold Mining In CaIifor mia.

Part Of the town of Sonora, Tuo
lumne county, CAL, is built on a hill.
Several gold bearing quartz veins run
through this hill. These for thirty years
past have been worked at various times,
afterward abandoned and then taken up
and worked again. Sometimes they
yielded richly, and again not at all.
They were of the character known as
"pocket veins" AS many as ten years
have elapsed when not a pick has been
struck on sSonora Hill" Years ago the
writer took up, and for season worked,
portion of the hill-without success.
Within the last two years out of this
same portion $500, 200 have been taken,
of which 100000 was all In brnch. y
This fact may give an idea of the uncer-
tain character of gold mining as it ex-
lists to-day in California. This find has
made no noise outside of its own To-
cality. Had it happened in new Ter
ritory it would have been published
from one end of the country to the
other. Such deposits still exist through
out the entire gold-bearing region OF
California. But no one need rush
thither in the hope Of finding them 1t
is simply hunting the proyerbial needle
in the haystack. Men may spend their
lives in such search, and perhaps when
they have worked through barren quartz
to within foot of the pocket" death
or discouragement may overtake them,
and after lapse of time the next adven-
turer may reap the reward which should
have been theirs. There is great
amount of gold under the soil in Cali
fornia, but it's very difficult to say just
there it is. -Neao York Graphic.

Curious Habits.

Great men often fall into curious
habits, which they find it impossible to
conquer. Augustus Hare, one of the
ripest scholars in the English pulpit,
and refined gentleman, when he had
ended train of hard thinking, would
spin around on his heel few seconds
and then resume work again.
Neander, the famous church historian,
could not lecture to his students unless
he had a goosequill to pull to pieces as
he talked, and it was necessary to sup
ply o second quill when the first was
completely stripped.
William Wilberforce became so alb
sorbed in conversation in evening COM
panies as wholly to forget himself. He
would lift himself from his chair in his
earnestness, move forward little, and
gradually approach perilously near to the
edge. It was tradition in fashionable
English circles that he had fallen several
times to the floor. But in families
where he was loved it was the custom
to station one Of the older children be-
hind his chair to move it forward as he
moved and guard him against peril.
Some who afterward became leaders in
English society retained among the
pleasantest memories Of their childhood
the recollection Of the services rendered
y this brilliant and ELOQUENT ccnYerserl

ItLooks Snsnicfous.

1t seems suspicious for q dramatic
critic at play to laugh until his vest
buttons rattle off like peas from pod,
be affected to tears until he has 10 bof-
row an extra handkerchief to absorb the
moisture, applaud till he seems to lead
an 'sencore," and then to write criti-
cism next morning condemning the play
as execrable and the actors as worse.
1t seems suspicious for young man
to call on the same girl every other even
ing and on another girl evely other
evening. 1t seems as il 'twould w
"s'mother evening" with him before a
great while.
1t seems suspicious for grocer to put
up a sign None but diary butter sold
here" when there are a dozen kegs OF
something or other with the labels
scraped off just unloading at his store
door.
1t seems suspicious for q woman whom
you have knowr since she wns a girl as
decidedly fr~ekled specimen, to ap-
pear on the streets without d freckle Ia
sight.
1T seems suspicious fol a restaurant
keeper to carefully avoid dining at Iii
own place of business, Just for the sake
Of walking two miles to dine with
family.
1t seems suspicious for a clerk who
gets So week salary to appear in d Tew
pair Of mauve pantaloons and snit To
match at least four times year.

and carry home silk one at night. It
also looks like q good trade.-NsD

THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.



Before sowing grass seed the farmer
should make certain of having good
seed-bed. More mistakes are made con.
cerning the preparation Of land for grass
than for any other crop. 1t is no un-
common thing to see a farmer simply
running over plot, where potatoe {
were grown the previous year, with q
cultivator, then following with harro W.
We have seen extreme cases where ev en-
the harrow was omitted, the seed SO wn
Immediately after the cultivator then
simply bushing in the seed, leaving ii
to make its way as best it can. Others
will use one-horse plow to turn under
the corn butts, getting in the seed with
as little labor as possible. In our ex-
perience the best practice is to plow a
good deep furrow, followed by q
thorough narrowing, and after sowing
to bush the seed in and use the roller
faithfully. When timothy and redtop
are sown it is best to use bushel of red
top, peck or eleven pounds of timo-
thy, also adding six pounds Of red
clover, which amounts to very liberal
seeding and should yield fair crop OF
hay about the first of September

WISE WORDS.

Entertain charity, and seek peace with
all men.
inclination and interest determine
the will.
Love, faith and patience the three
essentials to happy life.
None are more hopelessly enslaved
than those who falsely believe they are
free.
A falsehood has no legs, and cannot
stand; but it has wings, and can fly far
and wide.
Man believes himself always greater
than he is, and is esteemed less than
he is worth.
I Never show that you suspect, nor ac-
cuse till you have found that your ,sus-
picion was well founded.
Beware Of him that is slow to anger;
anger; when it is long in coming, is the
stronger when it comes, and the longer
kept.
Every person has two educations-on
which he receives from others, and
one more important which he gives
himself.
The nice arrangement and proper APP
preparation of time is science almost as
valuable as any of the seven, and as i'm

The King Of South American Cataracts.


1t was not until had been within its
direct influence that I learned that
Tequendama was a potentiality in the
United States of Colombia. Our own
Niagara fills its unmatched picture in
this broad world no more despotically
then Tequendama does its own in South
America. 1t may be as well to admit
here that, while observing the latter fall,
I was far from being at my ease. The
fact is, men never manage, whatever
they may combine to say, to stand wholly
at ease in the presence of great catar-
act In the midst Of an unrest SO mighty
and SO ceaseless no spectator can him
self be entirely at rest.
The sublimity Of Tequendama is in
its depth, as that of Niagara is in its
width and immensity of volume. A fall
from a great height is Teduendama-
not clear fall, however, because the
Salto itself is divided into two we'll
defined leaps. One, the minor leap, is
small fall striking on ledge, which
its volume conceals, twenty-seven feet
eight inches below the bed Of the Bo-
gotta, the river which feeds the cataract.
The other, the greater leap, starts in
foam from the ledge with what seems
no longer rushing water-save for the
jets of spray that now and then spit
out only to fall back after while, like
well-trained skirnishers, into the main
body. Outside of such erratic move
ments, Tequendana ends by broadening
into a strong, glistening mass, the
lower descent Of which is lost in the
mist that never leaves it, winter or sum-
mer. After rebounding from the ledge,
it dashes itself forward and downward
to commit that solitary form Of suicide,
which, in all the annals of men, finds no
detractor.
The width of Tequendama depends,
of course, upon the breadth of the Bo-
gotta as it fronts the cliff. The measure
of the Bogota is the full measure Of the
fall, and that measure seems very limit
ed in comparison with the far yaster
proportions of the gulf itself. Any
muscular man on so much solid surface
might easily cross it at a dozen jumps
within half that distance of the cataract.
Its depth is mighty. If not the great
est, it suffices to make Tequendama one
of the deepest among the falls of the
earth -Ruckon Foss in Norway, 500
feet, and Lulea, in Sweden, 600 feet,
alcne probably surprising it. The epub-
lished accounts, as a rule, place it at 600
feet, although the real descent, varying
between Humboldt's estimate, by drop
ping, of 585 feet, and Baron GROSS by
measure, Of 479 feet, is doubtless nearer
500 feet. Even at this last figure, Te-
quendama is more than three times as
deep as Niagara, which is said to touch
bottom at 100 feet. The bed of the
chasm is 1O2 feet lower than the foot Of
the fall itself-Ne,C York Mail.
