Where Gold Was First Discovered.

DIR. Holmes lately returned to Viz
ginia City from two weeks visit to
Coloma, California, his old-time mining
camp, and gave the Enterprise data for
the following: "Coloma is the spot
where gold was discovered in California,
but its glory as place of mining has long
since departed. 1t is now place of
orchards and vineyards. Although sur
rounded by'snowy mountains snow sell
dom falls in Coloma. There grow the
fig and the almond tree, and there flow
ers bloom every month in the year. The
people live in the vine embowered cot
tages, till their gardens, train their vines,
prune their trees and are happy, giving
no thought to underground wealth that
lies deeper than hill of potatoes. The
only miners now seen about Coloma are
Chinese Under the orchards and gar
dens is still a considerable amount of
ground that the pick has never disturbed.
The Chinese occasionally get upon leads
of gravel that run into these, and the
high prices they are willing to pay for a
small strip of garden or orchard shows
that they find the ground productive.
One man has, year after year, disposed
of slices of his orchard, and only the
other day sold for $500 the ground on
which stood four apple trees"

A Mississippi Pilots Story.

The passenger, who was going down
the big river for the first time in his
life, secured permission to climb up be-
side the pilot, a grim old grayback, who
never told a lie in his life.
''Many alligators in the river?' in
quired the stranger, after look around
'Not so many now, since they got to
shootin' 'em for their hides and taller,
was the reply.
"Used to be lots, ell %
81 don't want to tell you about 'em,
stranger" replied the pilot, signing
heavily
"Why?"
"'Cause you'd think 1 was allyn to
you, and that is sumthin' l never do. l
can cheat at keerds, drink whisky, or
chaw poor terbacker, but can't lie."
''Then there used to be lots of 'em ~
inquired the passenger.
'Im most afraid to tell We, mister,
but I've counted 1even hundred alliga-
tors to the mile from Vicksburg Far
down to New Orleans. That was years
ago, afore shot was ever fired at 'em.
swell, l don't doubt" replied the
stranger.
'sAnd I've connted 3,459 of EN- on one
sand-bar," continued the pilot. at
looks big to tell, but Government sur
veyor was aboard, and he checked 'em
off as called out.
81 haven't the least doubt of it, said
the passenger, as he heaved sigh.
'sI'm glad O that, stranger. Some
I'll -,
telling the solemn truth. This used to
be paradise for alligators, and they
were so thick that the wheels of the
boat killed an average of forty-nine
to the mile"
'Is that so?'
"True as gospel, mister! l used to
almost feel sorry for the cussed brutes,
cause they'd cry out cen most like a
human being. We killed lots of 'em, as
l said, and we hurt a pile more. / sailed
with one captain who allus carried
a thousand bottles of liniment to throw
over to the wounded ones!'
'He did,"
''True as you live, he did | don't
'spect I'll ever see another such kind,
Christian man. And the alligators got
to know the Nancy Jane, and to know
Captain Tom, and they'd swim out and
rub their tails agin the boat an pun
like cats, an look up and try to smile p
'They would? ~
''Solemn truth, stranger And once
when we grounded on n bar, with an
opposition boat right behind, the alliga-
tors gathered around, got under her
stern and jumped her clean over by a
grand push 1t looks like big story,
but never told lie yet, and / never
shall. wouldn't lie for all the money
you could put aboard this boat"
There was painful pause, and after a
while the pilot continued:
''Our ingines gin out once, and crowd
of alligators took bow line and hauled
us forty-fve miles up stream to Vicks-
burg"
"Thcy did,"
Sand when the news got along the
river that Captain Tom was dead, every
alligator ON the river daubed his left ear
with mud as badge of mourning, and
lots of 'em pined and died"
The passenger left the pilot-house with
the remark that he didn't doubt the
statement, and the old man gave the
wheel turn, and replied:
'Thar's one thing / won't do for love
nor money, and that's make liar of my
self. was brung up by good mother,
and I'll stick to the truth if this boat
don't make q cent. -Vicksburg Herald.

Give him lift kneel not in prayer,
Nor moralize with his despair;
Tie man is down, and his great need
Is ready help, not prayer and creed.
The time Is when the wounds are healed
That the inward motive be revealed,
But now whateer the spirit be,
Mere words are but mockery.
One grain of aid just now is more
To him than tons of sanity lore;
II you must pray, pray in your heart,
But give him lift! Give him start.
The world is full of good advice
Of prayers, of praise, and preaching nice,
But the generous souls who aid mankind,
Are scarce as gold and hard to find.
Give him like Christian-speak in deeds,
A noble life's the best of creeds;
And he shall wear royal crown,
Who gives men a lift when they are down.

The Business ofthe Country

The report of the business fail
ures of 1881 is worth noting be-
cause il indicates that we are still
on the plane of safe ere dits. The
business of the country has in
creased so heavily in volume that
the gross amount of failures and
liabilities is no gauge in itself to
Judge business activity, and to get
at basis of comparison the failures
must be taken in connection with
the volume Of business. In such q
comparison, the past years make q
good showing. In 1878, when the
country was just starting on its re-
covery from the hard times, the
failures were one in sixty four; in
1876, e in every los; in 1880, one
in every 15S; in 1881, one in every
I4S. This showing is slightly I'M
favorable compared with 1880, but
the past year has beea one of
tremendous speculation, and the
monty exchanges from week to
week have shown that, while bust
ness has been remarkably active,
there has been much reason to re
greet the prevalence of wild specula-
ton, and this had no small infiuen ce
on the list OF failures. The con-
clusion is inevitable that, in legiti-
mate business. the past year has
kept safe pace with that OF 1880.
