An Emblem of Industry.

A carpenter, who recently opened shop on Grand River avenue in Detroit, says the Free Press. went to 8 sign. painter. and told him he wanted him to paint an emblem representative of in- dustry and perseverance, leaving it to the man of brush what form the em- blem should take. The other day the painter appeared with board on which he had painted the likeness of man, and announced that he had finished the job. \ ......s
 s'That's no emblem r exclaimed the carpenter as he stood off and surveyed it.
 '"That picture represents industry and perseverance, and that's what was wanted," was the reply.
 "Why didn't you paint me a beaver or 8 bee-hive2"
 "My friend, that is the likeness of a ward politician who has been hunting for office for twenty-one years, and I want to tell you that for industry and perseverance he can double-discount all the beavers ever heard of and all the bee-hives in America"
 It was nailed up in place. 4

The Rush for Clerkships.
POINTED FIRsT-sCENEs AT THE PEN SION OFFICE.

A Washington letter says:-Secretary Teller started on his summer trip just in time to escape the last mad rush for ap. pointments in the Pension Office, and the indignation meeting of the women, who are angry because the first 400 appointees are men. On Wednesday, Acting Secretary Joslyn had day of nagging and imploring such as would drive nervous man wild. He has tried to explain to the women who apply that the first 400 were needed as examiners, and so must be men; but he says t" They don't seem to understand why, and one might as we'll talk to lot of jaybirds." Both Mir. Joslyn's room and the room of Appointment Clerk Hood have been full all day, the crowd con- taining sprinkling of members such as could be seized upon by the eager applicants and forced into one final begging visit to the department.
 The fact that the list of appointments was not made ready to-day led to great uneasiness on the part of those who thought they had been appointed. One young man from Ohio, whose com mission was already made out, became so worried that he telegraphed to his member of Congress for another re- hinder to the department. Many women were sitting in chairs crying. One said she was weeping because she did not know whether she had been ap- pointed or not. She was not so well in- formed as those who knew the 400 were all men. On being informed she stopped crying, and began to upbraid the Secretary. Nearly all the applicants made poverty their chief plea, and seemed both grieved and angry that the Government refused to bestow on them the aims of office.
 Toward nightfall MT. Joslyn re- faxed little and gave places to three women. Tomorrow the anxious women hope to gain additional favors. The clerks provided for by the appropria- tion will not be appointed in a lump, as the first lot were, but MT. Joslyn will appoint them singly or in small lots, as Commissioner Dudley may be prepared for them. He cannot accommodate with desk room all who can be put to work, nor is there g sufficient number of clerks ready to tell the new ones how to go about their duties to admit of turn ing the entire 800 in upon the Pension Bureau at once. It would be ridiculous if it were not pitiful to see the intensity of anxiety, the hope, the despair, the helplessness of these men and women who have set their hearts upon serving as Government clerks.

Buying Grazing.Land.

Rufus Hatch and party of English and New York capitalists have purchased 75O,000 acres of grazing-lands lying be- tween the Little Missouri and Powder Rivers, in Montana, from the Northern Pacific Railroad, at $1 per acre, on seven years time. As the grant to the road only takes alternate sections, the syndi. cate will have the use of the intervening sections of Government land. It is proposed to stock it with 50, 900 head of cattle. The party, in company with Hermann Trott, Land Commissioner of the Northern Pacific Railroad, are now on their way to inspect the purchase The Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad Company has sold to an English syndi- cate, represented by Close Bros., 1O5,- 900 acres of land in the Pipestone dis . trict, at $4.50 per acre.

The Crops In Europe.

The Department of State of Washing ton is in receipt of recent advices from Consul Tanner, of Liege, Belgium, showing that the crops in England and Belgium have suffered severely from the protracted wet weather. Farmers in Belgium only hope at the hest to secure a half-yield of the wheat crop. Market gardens have sustained heavy damage, and Irish potatoes are taken out of g soil so wet that they begin to rot a week after they are gathered. Large importa- tions must necessarily follow, and American farmers are strongly urged to devise means for placing their Irish po7 tatoes on the markets of Brussels and Antwerp, where they will meet with ready sales this coming winter. The same Consul reports in regard to the English hop crop as follows: ''The enormous value of this crop is but little known even in England. The acreage in the kingdom is close upon 10000, and the difference between @ good crop, say of 10 cwt. per acre, and 8 blighted crop of only cwt. per acre ia repre- sented by millions. A large good crop would realize an average of $25 the cwt., while crop of only 2 cwt. to the acre of as good quality as the other in the production of young fresh vines would probably fetch $50, but importa. tions from the United States so com. pletely rule prices that certainty as tc figures can only be reached when the quantities of said imports are ascer. tained.' At the date of the Consul's writing July 20, 18S2) the prospects ot the hop yield in England and other European states were gloomy in the ex' treme, the persistent wet weather having produced bad failure, leaving only hopes that bare half crop may be secured.

This Years Railroad Building.

The year 1881 was an extraordinary one in railroad building. About nine thousand and three hundred miles of new track were laid. This yearly mile- age is yet unprecedented in the history of the country, but it is not likely to remain so long. According to the Chi- cago RailaOay Age the number of miles constructed during the seven months ending with July of the present year reaches the unparalleled total of six thousand, which is double the mileage reported at this time last year. It is not expected that the rapid rate of increase shown during the first seven months of 1882 over the correspo nding period of 1881 will continue to the end of the present year. But it is estimated that the total mileage of new road built in 1882 will exceed ten thousand miles, and reach nearly, if not quite, a thousand more miles than were built last year. This is encouraging progress.

Some American Cities.

Twenty American cities, iD the census year, had population of at least 100,- GOO each ten, namely, New York, Phil adelphia, Brooklyn, Chicago, Boston, St. Louis, Baltimore, Cincinnati, San Francisco and New Orleans, in the order named, had population of over 200,- GOO each; of these the first seven had over 300, 1000, and the first four over 5OO,OOO New York stood alone with her million and quarter 1; but before the next census Philadelphia will join her. giving the country two cities with more than 8 million inhabitants each. Meanwhile the contiguous cities of New York, Brooklyn, Jersey City and Ho- boken possess an aggregate population of over two millions. But the chief in- terest in the revised census figures for the larger cities relates to their relative growth. Here the most remarkable fact is the increase of Pittsburg, which added 81 per cent. to her population within ten years; next to this came Cleveland's s 72 per cent, while in one sense the 68 per cent. of Ohicago's increase is more extraordinary than either, since the ratio was on much larger basis. Mil waukee, San Francisco and Providence were the three remaining large cities that increased their populations more than 50 per cent. in the decade of years. These figures include only the twenty larger cities. Of course, among the smaller not few have doubled or trebled their populations, as it is easier for a city to increase from 10000 to 10000 than from 100, GOO to 200, ,OOO. Memphis and Mobile decreased from the previous census.

extinction. The fish first appears on our coast about the first of May, con- ing from the south, and is then very thin, yielding barely three quarts of oil to the thousand. In July and August we find him in the Sound. He has grown much fatter then and yields eleven gallons to the thousand; and there is 8 story of 8 thousand tried at a Maine establishment that yielded twen- ty-two gallons. am not of the opinion that the menhaden have seriously de- creased in number, but they have be- come more timid and wary. More have been reported this year and fewer caught than ever before. Recently one of my captains, coming in, saw off Mon tank school containing ten or twelve millions. He went out next morning, and not a fin of them was to be seen. Not long since another captain fell in with an immense body of Fire Island, so dense that he did not dare attack it for fear of losing his nets. He sailed back and forth through it to break it up, then set, and caught 14O, ,000 et 8 haul. A few hours later another steamer sailed over the spot and saw none. where they went, and why. is a mystery. Some explanation, of it is to be found, perhaps, in the great number of natural enemies they encounter. Besides man; 6n-back whales, sharks, porpoises and bluefish pursue them relentlessly."
 Referring to the feeling of the ''long- shore" farmers and fishermen against the steamers, MT. Tuthill said: "lt is prejudice and nothing more. In the first place, there is no evidence that the menhaden came into the bays to spawn. We find spawn at all seasons, and 1 am of oninion that the spawning-grounds are in the ocean rather than in the bays. Again, our steamers take the fish, it is true, but they o-not destroy it's value as fertilizer, but rather in- crease it. The old method of applying menhaden was very wasteful one. They were spread broadcast on the field and left to decay, the richest of the fer tiliziDg elements passing oil into the air, whereas our scrap retains all these, and is furnished the farmer at price not proportionately larger than he would have to pay for the raw material. This charge, however, is nothing to that brought against us by the Jersey fishermen. They assert that. we take food-fish in our nets; but in point of fact, the number of food-fish taken in our nets is infinitesimally small. None of us have enough for table use. My men once brought in several barrels of river shad, which we packed in ice and sent to New York; and this was the largest haul of food-fish ever reported by a menhaden steamer"

AT SET OF SUN.

If we sit down at set of sun And count the things that we have done,
 And counting find One self-denying act, one word, That eased the heart of him who heard;
 One glance most kind, . That fell like sunshine where it went, Then we may count that day we'll spent. But if through all the lifelong day We've eased no heart by yea or nay;
 If through it all We've done no thing that we can trace, That brought the sunshine to face;
 No.act most small, That helped some soul, and nothing cost, Then count that day as worse than lost.

The Texas Cowboy.
DESCRIPTION OF THE BOY BY ONE WHO
 KNOWS HIM.
From Texas Siftings.l

From IeXaS SlIl1ngS.l
 From Texas the owner of herd usu- ally goes to the terminal end of the drive by rail. The cowboys who accompany the cattle are under the control of 8 captain, who appoints, from the men under his charge, officers who have cer- tain duties to perform, and who enforce discipline in the ranks when they are sober enough to know the difference between discipline and demijohn.
 The cowboy is a man attached to gigantic pair of spurs. He inhabits the prairies of Texas, and is successfully raised as far north as the thirtieth de- gree of latitude. He is in season all the year round, and is generally found on the back of 8 small mustang pony, ''wild and savage as 8 colt of the Ukraine" This fact has given rise to widely diffused belief that the cowboy cannot walk, and he is often cited as an instance-a stupendous manifestation in fact-of the wonderful working of nature to adapt her creatures to the cir cumstances surrounding them. It is argued that once the cowboy was hu- man being-a biped with the ordinary powers of locomotion-but that during the course of ages, becoming more and more attached to his horse, and having gradually ceased to use his legs, these important adjuncts have been incapaci- tated for pedestrian uses, and thus the cowboy and his pony have developed into an hybrid union of man and horse -an inferior kind of Oentaur.
 Some scientists, however, dispute this, as several specimens of the cowboy have been seen, from time to time, who, wandering into the busy haunts of man, have-under the influence of excitement, and while suffering from intense thirst been seen to detach themselves from their mustangs and disappear into busi- ness houses, where their wants were at- tended to by man wearing diamond breastpin and white apron. Yet, though this was proved beyond doubt by several competent witnesses, it was acknowledged that the specimens alluded to, walked, or rather staggered, with un. even and wavering steps. This, how. ever, does not disprove the development theory.
 The cowboy does not wear 8 coat. His legs are weatherboarded withvgoat skin overalls to protect them from the thorns of the mesquite, and he is roofed over with sombrero, wide in the cor. nice for shade, and open at the top fol ventilation,
 In the use of the lasso and profane language he has no equal. He can rope steer, throwing the moose on either hoof of the animal as it runs at full speed, at the same time showing choict in the matter of select and appropriate anathemas, which he delivers equally we'll, either in Mexican or United State language, Long Primer type, that is per fectly amazing, considering his limited acquaintance with the drama and tn, refining influences of civilized life. shows, however, what long practice an, steady devotion to one pursuit will ac complish.

TEMpER1Na.-Water mixed with ice gives the best temper to steel. One may insert some small tools to advan- tage in lump of ice, as jewellers and watchmakers do when they temper
 them in sealing wax. Often oil is used, and is preferable to water, because 1t is not so easily evaporated. Damascened blades are tempered in g strong current of cold air, pessing through a narrow chink, Q temper more uniform than with water being thus obtained. But of all the means for this purpose it is believed the most efficacious is metal lie liquid, and, mercury being the only one known, and always good conduc- tor of heat, as we'll as the best of liquid con ductors, it has come to be regarded as an unequalled bath for the temper of very sharp steel tools.

HEAVY LATHEs.-Mr. Maitland, su- perintendent of the royal gun factory at Woolwich, England, says that the na- ture of the productions of such an es- tablishment necessitates the turning of very large and heavy masses, and, therefore, the lathes are remarkable for magnitude and power. They can deal with, weights up to two hundred tons, and are sufficiently powerful to reduce by six inches at single cut the diane. ter of twelve-foot tube.

ON THE LAKE.-"Do you see that big colored fellow there ?" said the cap- tain of lake steamboat as he pointed out a deck hand of unusual develop ment; "that fellow can neither read nor write; he don't know one letter from another but he can tell where a box is going to by the address on it just as well as any educated person. He knows by the shape of the word whether it is Duluth, Marquette or the Sault. He is strange old fellow, too, for he stuck on one steamer for ten years, and only left her when she was sold and quit the Lake Superior trade"
