our ImmIgrants yot all r.rmer..

It is the common impression that of the 669,4 ,431 immigrants arrived ID this country during the past year, much the larger part 20 as farmers and farm la bOrsrs to the West and Northwest to settle the unoccupied lands of the United States. The official report upon the statistics of immigration states, how ever, that there were but 49,179 farmers, 5,439 farm labOrers, and 132, 402 chased simply as laborers. Professional Occu- pati0ns were represented by 2,Sl2 per sons, skilled occupations by 66, 457, and miscellaneous occupations. embracing farmers, laborers, merchants, salesmen. cooks, coachmen, etc, 244,492. The number returned as without occupation, women, children and others, Is 355,670 It appears, therefore, that special occu- pstions other than farming embrace five sixths of the total number of our immi- grants. These most probably settle in the towns rather than the country, com peting there effectively with less skilled labor. The 66, 457 persons having skilled occupations, for example, with the wo- men and children accompanying them, must certainly have done so. Such facts probably explain the early maturity reached by the arts of trade aRd raanu- facture in this country.

SPEAKING ofmaternal love, the Record

SPEAKING fmaternal love, the Record UnIon says, referring to the killing Of the great bank robber; "The mother of Jesse James could not find language bitter enough for the murderer of her boy. She evidently had contrived to ignore entirely the peculiar career be had led. nor apparently did her strong mother love lead her to sympathize in any way with those other mothers, so many of whom have been made child less by the dead desperado. The red right hand which had committed so many cruel aud wanton murders was to her only the innocent hand of her boy" :" And perhaps there are none of us So in- dependent of sympathy that we can reflect with equanimity upon future accounting in which We might not need the help of such a roek-rooted, indes- tIuctible and all-embraoing mother love"

How to Prevent Claim Jumping.

Few miners ever have a legal surve, of their claims, or until patent IS ap- phed for on them, and the claim jumpei takes advantage of this circumstance and when the original locator come, around to look after bis claim that ha- been jumped, the jumper will say, "Was your claim surveyed?" "No." "TheI how can y, prove that your claim was located on this grOund?' The United. States land laws specify that the Identit, of the claims should be fixed 0y referenc, m the location notice to some tixee natural object, or something by whicl the location may be identified. But thn point lOcators generally neglect; an, herein IS the stronghold of the jumper. To head off this class of thieves 1 have adopted the following plan. which giv, for the benefit of any other locator w., may wish to adopt 1t. When I make a location 1 write out three notices for record, one for posting gconspicuousI, on the lead for which purpose it shoulc be written on a board, or better. on e piece of zine with a lead pencil. the chemical combination formed by tn, plumbagO and zine being such that tn, action of the weather will never efface it J and thlrd copy on paper, which plac, ID tin can tan old oyster can will dol and after closing 1t up as tight as pos sible bury the can in the lead where it won't be likely to be dug mp. and known only to the locator. The reference to some natural object should also be made but as this can hardly ever be exact enough III the description to identify q clam, If jumped, the buried notice can thus be dug up in the presence of wit nesses, which ought to furnish sufficient additional evidence to convince any jur, of the proper ownership of the propert, This IS to head off the petty thteves.- New Mexico Corr.

During the past two months A. ?.
 LOwerl and James Brincard have been prospecting for quartz in the Deighbor- uOOd of Centerville. They have .ound dozens of gold silver-bear- tng lodges. Three of the dis coveries are of the most exciting
 'haracter-one large ledge on MuletOwn mountain, one on Hickey Gulch near NiddiesOwn and one at the head of a
 sulch on the southeast side of the Gage Hill divide, and about three and half miles from here This last ledge is i'll a {uch that paid immensely rich up tO a certain point and then ''gave out" LOwSry thought the gulch gold had come from quartz, but a diIigent search if the hill above failed to reveal any quartz crOppiugs. The two men went Co work, however, sinking prospect holes and were rewarded by unearthing a ledge from SIX to sixteen inches in width, which contains free gold in such profusiOu us to make an old quartz miner hke Lowery almost doubt the correctness of hls visions. A few pans O the ore yielded $40, and that which has since been taken out is still richer than tie crOppIngs. Bricard was in town Monday and exhibited a dozen or so of specimens taken from the ledge, either one of which would make fine material for a ieweler to work up into watch seals and breastpins. At present there IS no water m the neighborhood of the ledge, and consequently no show to nut mp little Giant erusher.-S Shasta COur1er.

AN important decision IS that which de clareS that hay Is not a manufactured ar ticle. Several million dollars worth oi hay is imported from Canada every year
 The government has collected hitherto % per cent. duty on the importations, upon ihe assumption that hay IS a manufactur ed article, as the hay would but justify a duty of but 10 per cent. if il Is not an ar ticle manufactured. During the past year eighty suits were brought against the col lectors of Plattsburg and Ogdensburg to recover duties paid Tn excess of To per cent. In October last, m one case, the government endeavored to show that hay was a manufactured article. The jury found verdict against the government. A bill of executions to review the finding was made. Judge Bl4tchford has iust decided upon the bill of exceptions that the jury were justified in their finding and refusing 10 grant new iral. So hay comes in in competition with our farmers on payment of duty of 10 per cent.

How an Alligator Eats.

An alhgator's throat IS ah animated sewer. Everything which lodges in hi, mouth goes down. He is a lazy dog, and instead of hunting for something 10 eat he lets his victuals hunt for him. That IS, he lies with his great mouth open, sp- paIently dead, like the 'possum. Soon a bug crawls into it, then a fly, then several gnats and a whole colony of mos, quitoes. The alligator doesn't close his mouth yet. He IS waiting for a whole drove of things. He does his eating by wholesale. A little later lizard will cool himself under the shades of the upper jaw. Then a few frogs will hop up to catch the mosquitoes. Then more mos quitoes and gnats light on the frogs. Fi- nally whole village of insects and rep tiles settle down for an afternoon picnic. Then all at once there is an earthquake. The big jaw falls, the alligator .lyly blinks one eye, gulps down the entire menage- rie, and opens his great iron, door for more visitors.

IT has been customary for the past two or three years to have a strike at Fall River in the dull months which generally ceases when the spring trade becomes active again. Whether the strikes are not instigsted by the mill owners it is not for us to say-it has, however. been so ascertained- In view of the present heavy stocks as compared with other years, it is not wonderful that the millionsires should welcome it, although it is not indicative of s policy that has for it's aim the well-being of the community as a whole. The total stocks of print cloths in the leading New Eng land centers for the past three years compare as follows: 1882, l,2l6, 900 pieces; 1881, 901 900 pieces; 1880, l25,O00 pieces Of these by mnch the largest proportion IS carried in Providence and nearly one half by speculators-New York holding 100000 pieces.

A similar revo lution has been brought about in all the large mining properties on the ridge. through the anti-Chinese agitation and the exertions of the local Miners Unious.

"Two young ladies Of my acquaintance -
writes New York correspondent to the
Philadelphia Record, "pretty girls they are,
too, were strolling up the avenue the other
day, when they noticed Mrs. Langtry walk
ing in front OF them with Mrs. Labouchere.
They hurried up, so as to get a good look at
her, and, as they passed her, Mrs. Langtry
said to Mrs. Lab:
"'Do you call those pretty gfrls?
"'No,' replied Mrs. Lab. in her loudest
voice, Il do not, and haven't seen pretty
girl since came to America
"'Isn't it odd,' said Mrs. Langtry, there
doesn't seem to be any pretty girls over here
at alp
''This was said in very low tones, evidently
intended for the passers-by to hear. Amer.
can wit was her match, though.
"'Isn't that Mrs. Langtryr said one o1
these girls to the other, looking around al
her.
"'Oh, dear, no, that is not Mrs. Langtry,
was the reply, given in good clear voice
Mrs. Langtry is pretty, and this woman ii
not, and Mrs. Langtry is well bred, and thil
| woman certainly is not
ITO say that Mrs. Labs pale eyes flashed
fire would be doing injustice to the dagger
that leaped from out them"
