port for 1852, IN which he speaks OF the diff

OF timber, and asks for some general aud
comprehensive law regulating who may cut
timber on the Government lands; for what
purpose 1t NAV be cut; and providing q
penalty for unlawfully destroying forests
He pointed out the effect of forests on rain
fall, and closed by saying the United States,
which had been so busny engaged In lum

"Where's that trunk been ?" said O
reporter, pointing to dismantled hulk
that had evidently put in to refit from
the sea of summer travel
Il should think that handle was
yanked off somewhere up the Northern
Central. There's man ut Elmira,
think it is, whom we always know by
the way he leaves his handles-always
tears 'em out on the same end of one
side. When trunk is split along the
back it's pretty sure to have been along
the Connecticut coast. The Stonington
transfer splits trunks like buzz-saw,
but when you get trunk stove In at
both ends, with the hinges off and tho
lock collapsed, you can be pretty sure
it's been into Canada. There's where
they do smash baggage. You see they
get so burned mad handling the chests
of drawers and washstands and wool
boxes that pass for baggage in that
country that they view every trunk as
a natural enemy, and they single out
the good ones like sharpshooters lay for
officers"
whats your particular private
mark ?" asked the reporter.
"Oh, we don't smash baggage here.
Baggage smashin', like the shakes in
New Jersey, is always in the next town.
But amt got no grudge against these
Saratogas, anyway" said the baggage
man, looking in kindly way at the
model village of two-story wooden
houses about him. - Philadelphia

Sayings of tho Little Ones.

~WHAT trade would you like to be
brought up to, my son?" asked a gen.
tleman of boy. The trustee trade {;
cause ever since pa has been trustee
we've had puddin' for dinner. "
A LITTLE girl who was disappointed
because her name could not be found in
the Bible said Never mind 1 will
be such good girl that if another BIZ
bic Is written my name will go into it. 7"
"MoTHERl" cried Johnny, who was
emptying jug of milk, "I've found out
what gave the Jug its name!" what
do you mean, johnny" "Why, don't
you hear what it says when the milk
comes out? Jug-jug-jug"
AS small boy put on his skates the
first time, after two hours hard work he
came bursting in, rosy with exercise
and excitement, shouting, "Oh, mamma,
it's lot of fun, but there's an awful sight
of picking up about it..
A POLITE little girl was shown a set
of playthings and doll, and was asked
which she would have. She looked at
the doll, which was fine one, and then
drawing her mothers head down she
whispered: II would rather have the
playthings, but please don't tell the
doll"
In a neighboring Sunday-school, a
few weeks ago, the question was asked :
What has Jesus done for you?' One
little 4-year-old raised her hand. well,
what is it?" said the teacher. II know
what He's done for Bertha. He's sent
little baby brother to her house, and
it's real cunning"
A 3-YEAR-oLD, who was about leaving
home with his mother to be absent sew
eral weeks was asked by his father
pWhat would you do, my son, if Ishould
die while you are away?" The little
fellow burst into torrent of tears, and,
between his sobs, said "Why, papa,
1 would ask God to make you over
again !"
A CLERGYMAN who had an exchange
with brother clergyman last Sunday
afternoon, was talking with his Agar
old daughter, who regularly attends
service, and usually sleeps during the
sermon. He was speaking ut home of
the minister who preached, when she
said: Papa didn't preach, and I didn't
go to sleep!"
A 7-YEAR-oLD South Boston boy tried
in vain for long time the other even
ing to get his opinions heard upon a
subject that was engrossing the earnest
attention of several ladies at his home.
Becoming tired of the incessant talk of
one lady he at last was duly recognized
upon asking her, who holds the key
to your iaw?'
A LADY, who had company to tea, re-
proved her son several times, speaking,
however, very gently. At last, out OF
patience with him she said sharply,
Jimmy, if you don't keep still, I'll
send you away from the table," "Yes,
that's what you always do when there
is company, and there's not enough
cookies to go round, was the reply OF
the gifted youth.

THE church, as q profession, exhibits
some curious anomalies in Great Britain
While favored Wears hold pluralities of
parishes and draw thousands of pounds
per annum from districts they have
never seen, we find the Bishop of Car
Isle announcing that he has vacant
living at his disposal, viz, the in
cumbency of Washable Head, in Cum
berland. The income is only ESQ, but
the population is only fifty. The Bishop
says that he will be truly grateful to
any ono who will recommend him to q
clergyman suitable for the post, and he
holds out the prospect of speedy
erection of suitable parsonage. There
is another living going a-begging in
Oxfordshire, stipend G100 and a vicar
age. But there are two serious draw
backs. The sum of e13O has to be
paid for adaptations, and of the popu-
lation of 800 hardly one-eighth attend
church, she remainder falling prey
to many kinds of dissent"

The present epidemic of suicide
throughout the country continues to be
interesting for the eccentricity that
characterizes so many of them. One
of the oldest cases on record was that
of Col. Picketts, Texas lawyer. He
lost case, and got soundly abused by
his client, whereupon he took morphine
and died. Such sensitiveness in q law
yer almost passes belief. Samuel Ma
gruder, of Maryland, killed himself be-
cause of grief for his first wife, though
he had been married to another and no
less estimnble lady for year. Mrs.
II. V. Jones of Philadelphia had been
married but two moths. Her husband
forbade her taking money from the
cash drawer of the store, so she took
fatal dose of laudanum. Jennie
Roberts, of Meadville, Pa, wanted to
go to dance. Her parents objected.
So she flung herself into q mill-pond,
and was drowned. Eliza Cook, aged
70, of Missouri, and Mary Bach, aged
81, of West Virginia, suicided because
they thought they had lived beyond
their time. Mrs. Kincaid, of Urbana,
Ohio, was entertaining pleasantly a
number of friends. Presently she ex-
cused herself, went out, and drowned
herself in q cistern.

Wasted Energy.

Who would suppose that any sane
man could be induced to swing a heavy
sledge-hammer for fun? 1t was Yam
kee who evolved that irrational theory
of amusement. At fairs and other
places of multitudes he glibly calls at
tention to machine which, when a
blow is struck on an upright iron bolt,
records on scale the force of the
stroke. An almost constant succession
of fools pay for the opportunity of thus
wasting their strength. They do not
thus exert themselves for exercise.
Those who need the stretch of muscle
are the very ones who Lack enough of it
to make q good show ut the striking
machine, and who do not expose them
selves to ridicule by making many eff
forts; while brawny fellows are tempted
to exhibit their strength. "A six
footer, with arms that bulged his
sleeves with punches of muscle at every
lift of the heavy hammer, and hands
that seemed capable of leaving their
impression on the hard ash handle, !"
says the Boston Herald, "was melted
by the spectators manifestations of adj
miration to labor tremendously an en-
tire hour. He was streaming with per-
SEPARATION when he got through, and had
parted with more vitality than a week
of sea air could restore. You must

marked, to make yourself so strong

on the seventh day, paying out his
nickels for the chance to do more Of
the hard striking by which he had
earned them. Could folly in diversion

Swimming In High Attitudes.

Tendeyfeet should know, and all
all others should not forget, tina. it is
more difficult to keep afoat in water in
this high altitude than in less alti-
titude. That accounts for the numer-
Gus cases of drowning even in conpar-
atively small streams. Young men
who could swim with facility in the
East have found out to their sorrow,
and too late, that they could not do the
same here. The light atmosphere con-
siderably reduces the buoyant power of
water. This is the case to a remarka-
bic degree on Lake Tahoe, the highest
body of water on the continent. In
this water even pine wood sinks, and
when n man is drowned his body never
rises. Cheyenne (JVy.) Leader.

DURING the war the silver level of q
Senior Warden, which had been worn by
Washington, was carried away from a
Masonic lodge at Fredericksburg, Va
This interesting level was deposited
among the archives of Integrity Lodge,
of Philadelphia, by Capt. Warren J.
Young, former member, together with
memorandum stating that it was to
be returned to MISUNDERSTANDING Lodge
after the State of Virginia, as o whole,
ceases to be in rebellion against the
Government of the United States" The
relic was overlooked until few weeks
ago, when q newly-elected Secretary
discovered it, and, after fraternal cor
respondenoe with his Southern brethren,
returned it to them.

Ii any one doubts the efficacy Of the
maidstone, let that person take wisdom
from evidence to the contrary. Ayoung
man in Delaware was attacked by by
drophobia, and every means of assist
ance failed of the desired result.
Finally maidstone, owned by family
in the county for seventy years, was APP
piled to the young man, fetching him
out of q comatose state and perceptibly
benefiting him, as the veracious chron-
icles have it. The stone is of lead
color and looks like q piece of petrified
honeycomb. 1t was boiled in milk I'M
til it became very hot. The wound
made by the dog-bite was then washed
until it begun to bleed, at which time
the stone was applied. 1t drew the
skin similar to the "cupping' process.
The patient began trembling violently,
as though about to undergo another
paroxysm, and blood and impure matter
began to ooze through the top of the
stone. After a while the patient be-
came perfectly calm. The stone re-
NAMED on the wound about three-quar-
tiers of an hour, drawing three ounces
of blood, and then dropped Like full
leech. There is now every indication
that the patient will recover. The
owners of the stone declare it has never
failed to cure case of hydrophobia, if

THE Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians,
having decided that cattle-raising is
likely to be an extensive enterprise in
Indian Territory, are making adj
vantageous contracts with ranchmen
for the lease of their unoccupied land.
These tribes have already rented Co.,
900 acres of On annual rental of $62, 1857,
half to be paid in cattle. The first
payment was recently made in 200
pounds of silver dollars, and six
months hence the cattle will be divided
up by the members of the tribes. The
Indians, who seem to be gifted with ex-
cellent business shrewdness, will en-
ploy a white man to look after their
cattle, and at the end of the land lease
will probably have somewhere in the
neighborhood of 100000 worth OF
