CHAPTER VIII.

Lady CareW never forgot the journey
to HattOn. Her impetuOus son hardly
gave himself time to sleep, or allowed
her time to prepare for the journey. He
was up with the sun; everything was
ready for his mother when she came
dOwn-breakfast, the carriage, a time
table and traveling-rugs; he had forgot
ten nothing.
How few men, thought Sir Carlos,
cOmplacently, situated as he was,
would care whether they had a moth
er's consent TO their marriage or not!
How few would give themselves any
trouble! Whereas he, although he
loved with such a deep love the girl
whom he had chosen, had not asked her
TO be his wife until he had consulted his
mother.
The morning was fair; but Lady
CareW was HAT ease. This impetuosity,
this breathless impatience of her son,
seemed to her far more like the fever
of passion than the steady flame of
love. Ifitshould be but a boys foolish
fancy, a young mans first love, and
after a few weeks of married life it
should die, what then?
On their way Lady Carew reminded
her son of Pendennis and his mad love
for Miss Costigan, and spoke highly of
the wisdom of those who parted him
from his idol. She told him that the
tie of marriage was to last for life; sure
lY it required a few months delibera-
tion! But he heard only the sound of
the birds singing sweetlY in the trees,

Indla's Black Holes Of Jalls.

The amount of sic kness and mortality
in some of the jails of India is stated
with good reason in the official reports
to be very deplorable, This is particu-
larly applicable to the Punjab. In the
year 1879 more than one-third Of the
average strength of the unfortunate in
mates Of the Rswai Pindi jail are stated
to have died, being at the rate of nearly
$50 1-2 per 1000. At Umballah the
death rate was nearly as high, though
in this Jail there was no case of cholera.
In the Jail of Belgium in the Bombay
presidency nearly half the average
strength was swept off in 1873. In 1879
the rate had diminished, though it still
reached the fearful proportion Of 200 per

Secretary Hunt has placed upon the
official files of the Navy Department a
letter of very unusual character forofiice
files. The letter is an answer sent by
the Secretary to a young naval officer
who wants to get married and will, in a
very short time, cOnsummate that desire.
The young officer in question has most
excellent record, but is not troubled
with a superabundance Of funds. In Or
der that he might carry out the mar
riage ceremony in some style, he made
request for an advance of pay. Secre-
tary Hunt has replied that he has di-
rected that the advance asked for be
made, and that he cOmmends both the
efficiency and good standing of his cor
respondent, to whom he wishes all pros
perity; and then Mr., Hunt adds little
homily upon marriage, and advises, in
a general way, that it is a good thing
for all young men, even naval officers,
TO get married

Religious Banking,

Religious" banking doesn't
seem to be n brilliant success. Sir
John Dean Paul was II very religious
man. So were the Gurney's, no.
thing IL not religious. The Union
Generate, that has had such terri
iic burst-up in PARIS, was child Of
the Pope's, specially blessed by his
Holiness, and eyen--a more import
ant fact still-trusted, so it Is said,
with portion of the riches which
the poor Prisoner of the Vatican
still contrives to retain. Nor was
this fraudulent French concern the
first banking institution which sought
to trade OH religion, with disastrous
results. In Jersey City, in the
United States, tho Roman Catholics
not long ago tried their hand OH n
similar experiment; and the result is
that the leaders of the enterprise are
in prison, and their customers ruined.
In tho same way, Archbishop Pur-
sell, at Cincinnati, has lost his good
name, while his flock have been
teeced to the extent Of three or four
million dollars. So that on either
side of the seq, it would seem, a
bank started under religious i'm
pulse is an institution with which
prudent people will have nothing to
do.
The best guarantees in business
are the strictly business ones, Any
attempt to rest commercial enter.
prise ON religious basis is certain
to fail. Nor is the reason Of this far
to seek, People never rely equally
OH two guarantees Of a wholly diff
ferent order. The late Thomas
Binney used to tell, with great glee,
Of an old predecessor of his in the
pulpit at the Weigh-house Chapel in
the days when each English citizen
of any account used to brew his own
beer, The parsons brewer died,
whereupon he inadvertently consulted
his deacons about the filing up Of
the vacancy. One of the office
bearers warmly commended a certain
person, mentioning that he had a
wonderful gift in prayer. 81 don't
want to hear anything about that, "
replied the parson," what want to
know is--can he brew good beer?'

THE people of the east arc beginning to see and appreciate the evils of political bossism, and are uniting in determined effort to stamp it out. This monster should have been throttled in it's infancy; it has grown to such proportions now that great difficulty will attend it's stran- gulation. But. God grant that the crusa- ders against it may triumph. It has brought the political morals of the country to very low ebb, and made office an article of merchandise.

SOME of the horrors of the French com mune were re-enacted in the streets of Alexandria, Egypt, last week, and there is probability that the Khedive will be forced to.abdicate, unless he should be sustained by foreign intervention. He has lost favor with the army and they refuse to quell the rioters. The English and French consuls were assaulted by the mob, and number of foreign residents were killed. The disturbance may lead to serious complications.

A SPECIAL to the Eraminer says: "The Pacific railroads are making an effort to prevent the passage in the House of bill which passed the Senate on Friday, com polling the payment of State taxes on lands granted to the roads. They have heretofore only obtained patents for their lands when the bargain is made to sell them to settlers, thus avoiding the pay ment of millions of dollars in taxes. The bill compells the payment of taxes on all lands granted them, wether there is a prospect of sale or not.

On Wednesday morning wounded Mexican. whose name we were unable to ascertain, arrived from Pioneer and put himself under the care of Dr. Cook for treatment It appears that on Tuesday evening some one, whose name the man was but few feet distant, fired revol- yer at him, the ball, one of A calibre, entering the back of his neck, traversing the side of his head and leaving near the ear, nearly tearing that member out. His escape from death was something mira culous, as the ball barely missed the brain. His head is badly mangled, but he will doubtless recover.

As WILL be seen by communication published on the local page, the citizens of Pinal and Pioneer district, pursuant to call published in the ENTERPRISE, met at Suter's Hall Saturday evening, en masse and unanimously elected Mr. P. A. Brown, of that place, to take charge of Pinal county's mineral exhibit at the Denver Exposition. Mir Brown is fitted for the position both by ability and experience and possesses the additional requisits of honesty and sobriety. He IS a practical miner and assayer and thoroughly acquain- ted with the ores of the country. There fore he is amply qualified to select, test and classify our ores, and to represent us intelligently at theexposition. Heasks for and should receive the hearty cooperation ofour mine-owners and citizens generally. We are all either directly or indirectly interested in making the exhibit a success. And in order to accomplish the latter we must render MT. Brown whatever aid we can in the way of collecting samples and datta. During the short time intervene ing between now and the opening of the exposition it will be utterly impossible for the commissioner to visit all the dis tricts of the county and select samples of their ore and datta of their mines, hence he must depend in great measure on mine-owners furnishing him with ore specimens from and information of their properties. There must be no delay in this matter as the time for classifying and shipping the ore, is short. Information relative to the expense will be found ill tie report of tue meeting.

THE rumor to the effect that orders had been received at San Carlos, to disarm the Indians lacks confirmation, and we fear it is groundless. We do not doubt that Secretary Teller voiced his honest convictions when he declared that the Indians should be di a med and compelled to eat their bread in the sweat of their brow the same as other people, but we do doubt his ability to bring about con- sumation so devoutly to be wished, in the face of the powerful opposition the Indian ring will offer to such an undertaking.
