Thoughts from Emer,ou.

We owe to man higher succors than
food and fire. We owe to man man.
Nature is rag merchant, who works
up every shred and odd and end int, $
new creations.
Poetry is the only verity-the expires.
sion of q sound mind speaking after the
ideal, and not after the apparent.
Wherever there is power there Il
age. Don't be deceived by dimples and
curls. l tell you that babe is . thous-
and years old.
The man that works 1T home helps
society at large with somewhat more of
certainty than he who devotes himself
to charities.
The truest test of civilization is not
the census, nor the size Of cities, nor the
crOps.-no. but the kind Of man the
country turns out.
Every man is not SO much work
man in the world as he il = suggestion
of that he should be. Men walk a.
prophecies of the next age.
Every genuine work of art has q
much reason for being g the earth and
the sun. The gayest charm Of beauty
has root in the constitution of things.
The less government We have the bet
ter-the fewer laws and the less conf
ded power. The antidote to this abuse
OF formal government is the influence
OF private character, the growth Of the
individual
No way has been found for making
heroism easy, even for the scholar. La
Dor, iron labor, is for him. The, world
was created as m audience for him; tho
atoms of which it is made arc oppor-
tunities
Our efficiency depends 20 much upon
our concentration that nature usually
in the instances where marked man IL
sent into the world, overloads, him With
bias. sacrificing his symmetry to his
working power.
1t never was in the power of any man
or community to call the arts into be-
ing. They came to serve his actual
wants, never to please his fancy. These
arts have their origin always in some
enthusiasm, as love, patriotism, or re-
ligion.
The high prize of life, the crownin9
fortune of man, is to be born to some
pursuit which finds him in employment
and happiness-whether it be to make
baskets, or broadswords, or canals, or
statutes, or songs.
Life is . succession of lessons which
must be lived to be understood. All is
riddle, and the key to riddle Is an
other riddle. There are as many pil-
lows of illusions as fakes in . snow
storm. We wake from one dream into
another dream. a
Our life is an apprenticeship to the
truth that around every circle another
can be drawn; that there is no end in
nature, but every end is . beginning;
that there is always another dawn risen
on midnoon. and under every deep .
lower deep opens.
1t only needs that just man should
walk in our streets to make it appear
how pitiful and inartifcial contriy-
ance is our legislation. The man whose
part is taken and who does not wait for
society in anything, has power which
society cannot choose but feel.
The restraining grace of common
sense is the mark of all valid minds-A
of Esop, Aristotle, Alfred, Luther,
Shakespeare, Cervantes, Franklin. =
The common sense which does not med;
die with the absolute, but takes things
at their word things IS they appear.

De Circus or Heaben.

After the circus had opened to the
public yesterday a gray-haired colored
brother, who held the hand of a boy of IA
as both stood gazing at the tent, shook
his head in solemn manner and oh.
served:
Its no use to cry bout it, sonny,
kase we am not gwine in dar no how"
but want ter" whined the boy.
I'm course you does. All chilli en- of
your aige run to evil an wickedness, an
dey mus be sot down by dose wild ex-
peerience.''
''You used to co." urged the boy.
''Sartin did, but what was de re-
suit? I had SIGH load on my consci-
ence dat couldn't sleep nights. cum
powerful nigh bein' q lost man, an in
dem days de price of admishun was on
~ quarter, too"
Cant we both git in for fifty cents7"
Il 'speck we might, but to-morrer
you'd be bilin' ober wild wickedness an
I'd be . back-slipper from de church.
Hush up, now, kase I hain't got but
thirty cents an dar' am no show fur
crawlin' under de canvasy'
The boy still continued to cry, and
the old man pulled him behind wagon
and continued:
Henry Clay Scott, which had you
rather do-go inter de circus an den
take de awfullest lickin' . boy cher got,
or have glass of dat red lemonade an

es Of lemonade. In. addishun, would
observe dat circus am gwine on in

The boy took the lemonade, but he
drank it with tears in his eyes.

About American Pir,tee.

They had two methods of work. One
was to patrol tho sea in tho track Of ves.
sells bound to and from Europe and
Brazil or Spanish America, and seize
them. Very often the crews were will
ing, or were compelled. to Join the
pirates; but sometimes Ill were killed or
carried into slavery. Merchant ships,
therefore, Ill went heavily armed in
those waters, and many were the bloody
battles fought.
This work, however. employed only 4
portion Of tho buccaneers, and was too
uncertain . means Of wealth to suit
them. They would, therefore, equip 4
great feet, enlist men under certain
strict rules as to sharing tho spoils, and
sail awayt to pillage some coast. There
was hardly an island in the West Indies
from which, in this way, they did not
extort immense sums Of money under
threat Of destruction Of the people. The
mainland also suffered from tho ma
RAIDERS. Great cities, like CartaRena in
Venezuela, Panama on. the Isthmus,
Merida in Yucatan, and Havana, Cuba,
were attacked by armies Of buccaneers
numbering tens of thousands of men.
Sometimes their Notifications held good
and the enemy was beaten back; but
sooner or later al these cities, aud 9TH
ers, smaller, were captured. burned or
partially burned, and robbed Of every
thing valuable that they contained.
''Why did the citizens not hide their
Wealth. They did; but the buccan-
GERS put to the most dreadful tortures
men, women, children, slaves
body-until they would tell where their
money and jewels were buried. Its
sickening to read Of the crimes and suf-
fering committed by the wickedest Of
men. For years and years they wsre
the terror of the whole Caribbean region.
Nor did their enormous riches do them
particle Of good, for they wasted it al
the moment they got home, in wild
rioting, SO that the spoils earned by
months of hardship and exposure, and
wounds and danger Of death, would bo
spent in week Of carousing. Before
the end Of the century, however, tho
combined naval forces Of al the nations
interested in the commerce of the new
world broke the power of the buccan-
GERS, and their depredations ceased.
Their story is one of the widest, most
romantic, but most terrible pictures In
the history of tho world.-June Vide

An Australian Doctor

An Australian lawyer has turned doc
tor, and is accomplishing wonders. HE
places no restrictions on diet, and re-
quires no abstinence from liquors or
narcotics. His ordinary treatment of
all complaints is identical. He simply
breathes on the part of the body that IS
afflicted, when it is Immediately made
whole. Occasionally, when the COM
plant is Of long standing, where there
is detormity, or a severe swelling, he
gives the sufferer bottle of watet to
take away with him. to be used inter-
nally, accordingsto the location of the
disease. This water is medicated SIM
ply by being bresthcd upon.''

THE TENNESSEE QUESTION
Memphis Avalanche.

The republican party in Tennessee ii
fully committed against reputation in any
form. Outside the city of Memphis there
is not a corporals guard of republicans in
the state who favor this monstrous doc
trine, and it is hard to understand why the
most important postoffice IN the state ]:
allowed to be used under a republican ad
ministratien to make war against the mos
cherished principle of Tennessee repubii
canism. -hn0rcftte Chronicle.
This is in the nature of news. Ii an.
republican politician or newspaper has adj
vocated the payment of 100 cents of the
principal of the public debt and 6 per cent
interest the fact has escaped notice. The
republicans are lot of repudiators differ
ing from the democrats only in the amount
to be repudiated: I'm the twenty ceuntie:

the mass of the republican voters vii

DARWINIsM.

Many people, including possibly some
preachers, speak vaguely of Darwinism
and evolution as though they meant the
same thing, while others associate with
his name no more definite idea than the
descent of man from a monkey. Darwin
did not invent the doctrine of evolution,
nor is that doctrine in its general sense, one
that is now disputed. What Darwin in
vented was particular theory, elaborate
and apparently complete, to explain the
probable manner of evolution in organic
life.s Nobody can certainly say whether
this theory is true or false, but il may be
either and still not render the general prin-
cipal of evolution less probable. Prof
Huxley. the ablest exponent of the modern
school, tells US that ''as the evidence now
stands, it is not absolutely proven that a
group of animals having all the character
istics exhibited by species in nature, has
ever been originated by selection. whether
artificial OF natural and till such proof
be adduced one is at liberty to believe
that species have been originated in that
way, but it is certainly very at
tractiye theory, and it will continue to
have adherents till supplanted by a better

THE INDIAN OUTBREAK.

To be as mild In language and guarded
in statements as possible. it is safe to say.
without danger of indignant contradictions
by eastern sentimentalists-that the Indian
outbreaks are growing a trifie monotonous.
They are deal sight more dangerous than
the grasshopper and come with great
deal more regularity. Their advent is now
as capable of prediction as the changes of
the moon and much safer betting than
Vennors1 weather prophecies. In their
case is the true and shining beauty of pa
ternal government best illustrated; in their
position of wards of the nation they eat
government rations all winter and with the
latest improved arms in their hands also
furnished by kind paternal government
they are ready to 60 forth in the spring
to fill out their yearly contract of killing as
many American citizens as possible. They
are ont trifie early this spring, but then.
it was an open season and they desired to
lose no time in carrying out their summers
Next fall, when they can
find nothing to eat for themselves or ponies,
and are satiated with murders and outrages
perhaps sleepy government has been
awakened to making it trifie warm for
them-then they will return and
give themselves up, the pipe Of
peace viii be smoked and they
will turn Uncle Sam into free boarding
house keeper and ammunition supply depot
until the coming of warm weather will I
make possible their summer round of
pleasure.
Now it is about time this farce of a So
called Indian policy is stopped. Expert
ence has demonstrated that about the only
good Indian, is q dead Indian and all hope
of persuading him to put on the garb of
peace and mantle sef Christian charity
should by this time be utterly demolished.
1t is well enough for eastern sentimental
lists to talk about the great injustice that
has been done the t.noble red man" and
pirate of reparation for past wrongs. If
injustice and wrongs have been done II is
of the past; the present is what we have to
deal with. If our forefathers did wrong
to the Indians we can be sorry for IL, but
that is no reason why the present genera
ton should allow them to burn houses,
slaughter men and children and outrage
women. Some remedy must be sought
for these evils and sought at once.
Some of the Indians can be civilized; lei
those that can, be. But tlaere are Others
that cannet or rather will not, and the
best place for them is in a'the happy hunt
ing ground. IF they want to pursue their
favorite avocations there they can prac.
tice on each ofher.

matter, for il is a safe conjecture that i

The bill to restore capital punishment
failed to pass its third reading in the
house by majority of six.
Pere Hyacinthe when asked why the
Prussian soldiers were so uniformly vic.
torious, replied: because each one oil
them carries bible in his knapsack."
The superiority of woman over man is
shown by the calculation that on the
average every man speaks fifty-two vol
umes, six hundred octave pages, per an
mum, while every woman yearly brings
out Eve hundred. volumes of the same
size.
When a sculptor digs out statue that
is too bad for anything else, he can, gen.

deceased statesman, induce congress 10

An Ohio man turned his wife out OF
