Price -Four Cents.

the great glass manufacturers, gives the fol- lowing analysis, and says fI have carefully examined the crystallized specimens of eIau- Der salts from the soda lakes of Wyoming
 and found them to contain fl per cent. of
 sulphate of soda, and for the manufacture of
 window glass chemically pure and absolutely
 free from iron. The glauber salts now used
 here contain 15 per cent. of iron, which
 needs refining before it can be used All
 manufacturers of plate glass would prefer the pure article of Wyoming"
 While the writer is advocating creameries woolen mills, Touring mills, inseed oil works, sorghum mills and other industries all along the Platte valley, he looks for the greatest glass factory of the United States to be buiIt at an early day on the Laramie plain. And besides that the irrigation of that great ex- tent of country will furnish food, and more than that, happy homes for thousands of operatives. The industries which will in less than five years be built up along the line of the Union Pacific railway, along it's whole length, have not been anticipated.
 In this statement the writer includes the great sege plains, every foot of which will be soon occupied as wheat lands. In connec- ton with the contemplated soda works the railway is boring four wells. The one in- ished has depth of seventy-two feet-ffty- five feet of water. The water is very soft with a slight taste of salt.
 The second in construction is on a ridge about 800 yards from the Soda lakes and at least fifty feet above them. Here water was struck at twenty-three feet, and of pure soft quality-it rose within nine feet of the surface. This is an indication of what arte- sian wells might do on these high plains. At fifty feet was thick stratum of blue clay, then layer of quicksand such as would be found on the sea shore at eighty-feet a solid bed of gypsum through which they were drilling. The water cameuo so rapid that it was necessary to put in four-iuch pipe as they went down. This water will be used to furnish their works and the railroad trains going to and from the North Park, and besides to demonstrate what there is below, if artesian wells will succeed, and what may be done. It seems as if there would be fac tories of some kind on every twenty miles of the Union Pacific railway

which fell into it's hands at the collapse
 of the rebellion, and which were estimated
 by Secretary Seward at S2O, ,OOO. 900. It par
 ticularly urges its claim to the proceeds Of
 the sale of southern cotton, upon which the
 so-called cotton bonds were based, which
 amounted to $15, ,O0O, 900, and quotes the de-
 cision of Lord Hatherley, to the effect that
 the United States in acquiring the cotton
 took it subject to all the agreements made in
 respect to it by the Confederates The point
 is made that the cotton seized by the North
 after the war is quite as much the property
 of the bondholders as the guano deposits of the province of Tarapaca are of the creditors of Peru. Amity and good feeling are urged as the reasous why the United States should assume these obligations. This claim is not as ridiculous as it might be, but it will do.
 Tennessee, too, is not exactly solid. Con- gressman Moore, speaking of the Liberal there, says: "We shall make con- siderable inroad into the Democratic half of our delegation if We do not carry every dis trict in the State next election. The Liberal is growing in Tennessee, as in  other southern States, and will soon make its strength known. We have received proposi- tions recently from the State Credit Demo- crats which we shall probably accept. They offer to join us to vote the Republican ticket, and do not ask anything of us except decent treatment. With their assistance think we shall carry nearly every district in the State. Tennessee is, as you know, naturally Re publican State. With the recognition and support which feel sure this administration will give, the Republican party will win every time. That is what is wanted in every south ern State-the assurance that the administra- ton will encourage Liberal movement. The ten Republican members from the South tell me that that is exactly the position in which the administration stands. and that, as soon as the Liberal men of the South get to under stand this, they will be ready to join in the Liberal movement. The whole South is ripe for it today. In some States, as in Alabama, the people are waiting for a leader; in others they are waiting for declaration from the President; in others, as in Tennessee, they are organizing for victory"

According to the SaIut Public, recent op- erations at the Bourse in Lyons have been of exciting character that many specu- lators have gone mad. Within a few days, so many lunatics were brought from the Bourse to one private mad house that the director did not know how to dispose of them. His perplexity was all the greater be- cause they fancied that they were still at the Bourse, and insisted on doing business with the other patients, and with the servants and officials. At last it occurred to the director to set up in a remote part of the institution, bar like that which is placed in the Bourse for agents. The effect on the patients was immediate they rushed to the bar and be- gan to invite each other to buy and sell. Thus the whole day passed and not until evening, when they had exhausted them selves, would they consent to be taken to their rooms. Since that time the institution has been quieter, with the exception of the sham Bourse, where the lunatics daily win and lose milliards.

TO THE PEOPLE.

The high tuition exacted by pro-
fessors of music has placed its ac-
uuirement in the hands of compare
lively few, and beyond the reach Of
many. Hundreds of dollars are
sometimes spent in obtaining a
knowledge of music, and many
would be glad to continue lessons,
having once made a good start, who
are prevented by circumstances.
The public demand a change. In
the interest of THE PEOPLE we have
arranged system Of classes for the
piano, organ and guitar, whereby
the youth of our city who have not
already engaged teachers, can have
an opportunity of learning music,
with fair prospect Of obtaining a
thorough course at much less ex-
pered than by the old method of
individual lessons. Those prefer
ring the latter can also be accom-
mOdated at reasonable rates. We
have noted with pleasure the good
work of Brother Evan Stephens.
His success should encourage us all
to work for the good of the people
at large. The 81 pupils selected
from the Sabbath Schools for one
term on the organ gratis were to
have commenced this week, but ow-
ing to few Wards not reporting
those classes will Vbe delayed until
next Monday, when it is hoped all
will be ready. Our terms to addi'
