A Queer Father.

Recently, according TO the Pilot, a
man weIl-known in Manitowoc walked
into drugstore and asked for some
drug that would speedily send his
youngest child ITO Kingdom come"
He said be had fourteen children, and
although the youngest. an infant, was
likely TO die, he feared it might live,
and therefore wanted the fatal drug in
order to end all doubts in the case. The
man urged that ii would be a msfor-
tune for him and his family if the baby
should live, and seemed to think he was
proposing to do good instead Of com
NIT crime. OF course this unspeaka-
bly, curious parent did not secure the
required drug; but had he succeeded
and killed hi, child for the benefit, as
he supposed, of his family, how far
would he be moral and how far an ac-
tual criminal.

The Discovery Of Diamonds in Brazil.

luc DioOoFoTy VI DldulOuus III DTd1ll'
Often, down to 1929, the gold hun
ters had noticed in the bottoms Of the
bowls in which they washed the river
sands, little bright crystals to which
they attached no value. The briliancy
of these crystals, their hardness and
their regular form, as if shaped by the
hand, had indeed attracted the atten-
Jion Of the miners, and many had saved
them to use as counters in play; but
gold alone had any value in the eyes of
these adventures. At this epoch. ac-
cording to the least uncertain tradition,
a monk, who had taken part in the
search for diamonds in India, recogniz-
ed the nature of these counters. He
told his discovery to a certain Bernardo
da Fonseca Lobo, who made it known
in his name to the Portuguese Govern
ment. The King Immediately took pos
session Of all the lands where the pres
ence of diamonds had been recognized
and where it could be suspected.
Bernardo received as bis reward the
title OF royal notary and the command
OF the militia Of the most important city
OF the region. Inc name OF the monk
was forgotten. do not believe that
the name of either could have been pop
ular at Minas, for their discovery, which
threw hundreds Of millions into the
treasury Of the Kings Of Portugal, was
the origin of one of the most despotic
rules that any country ever had to en-
dure.
The first diamonds were found in the
sands Of the brooks and these sands, or
to use the Portuguese expression, which
has passed into nearly all languages,
cascalhos. still constitute the beds that
are principally worked. But beds of an
entirely different nature, situated, like
mines of metals, in the midst of the
strata, and of corresponding depth,
have been brought to notice in later
years. Popular Science Monthly.

GRAND MEADOW, July 30, 1882.
Editor Iranscript:-Is see by the Austin
Register, editorial to-day, that mot a
White man visited Frankfort, Racine, or
Grand Meadow Town, as they had not
time to do So"
Now, Mr.. H. O. Basford and w. T..
Wilkins were in Grand Meadow Village,
and visited at Mr.. Hands place in Grand
Meadov Toaon, and 1 think by reference
to the Register of last week you will find
a glowing description of Hands farm.
And besides. on the day of our caucus,
we were visited by both Langworthys,
father and son, who went away from here,
after looking over the ground, looking
like dog with his tail between his legs,
as though they were ashamed of their side
of the question.
