Mrs. Lydia Maria Child and her husband

Mrs. Lydia Maria Child and her husband
lived for quarter of a century without ser
want in their pleasant home in Wayland,
Mass. Once, when he said to her: 81 wish
for your sake, dear, i was as rich as Croesus. :"
she replied, ''You are Crmsus, for you are
king OF Lydia" This is the poetic way of
telling which had to get up and start the fire.

The following is published in the Milan
TENNESSEE Exchange as showing the lineage
of Colonel M. T. Polk:
"a lady resides here who was a child in
Bolivar with our absconding treasurer and has
known his family for many years. She says
his name was originally Marshall Tate, and
not Polk; that he was poor relative of Presi-
dent Polk. and that the President adopted him
into his family for the purpose of educating
and making man OF him. So it seems that
he was not far wrong when he gave his name
in Texas as Tate

Queer Ideas of America.

Esther Silverstein, Polish girl, was ar
ranged in the New York Court of General
Sessions Thursday, charged with stealing
lot of jewely and SIS from her employer.
She pleaded guilty, but said through the in
terpreter that she had been in America only
short time, and had been told that it was the
custom of this country for servants to help
themselves to the property of their employers.
Judge Gildersleeve said: "You must not be-
lieve everything told you in this country. You
are sent to the penitentiary for six months"

east bank, at Bonnet Care, the difference
of level between the river and Lake Pont-
chartrain is twenty feet, and the distance
between them five miles At Lake Borgne
the difference of level is fourteen feet and
the distance SIX miles. So that it is quite
possible to make outlets by which the
food water, or, for that matter, all the
water of the Mississippi, could find its way
to the gulf by shorter lines and lower lev
els than those of the present river. And
when men stand appalled, at the sight Of
its devastating floods, the suggestion of
quick relief, by outlets seems at first sight
so practicable and reasonable that it is not
strange that it should find favor in many
minds
The reasons which lie against this theory
require some thought for their clear appre-
hension, but rest, as is believed, on well as
certained laws.
The three most difficult factors in the
problem are, the wide variation in the vol
ume of the rivers discharge, the quantity
ofsolid matter transported by its current,
and the softness of its banks. II any one
of these three elements were absent, the
questions presented would be comp arative-
ly simple.
To contain the river at its food requires
a great Channel. Its banks are 50 friab lie
that ITS constant tendency is to make itself
room by tearing them down. When the
food subsidies the material of which they
were composed is found scattered over the
broad channel in obstructing bars and
shoals. Over and among these the low
water river has to make its way by such
tortuous and changing path as it can find
or make for itself. 1t is then that naviga-
ton becomes difficult and dangerous There
is water enough in the river at its lowest
stage to furnish ample depth for navigation
If il we're confined in a channel of suitable
width; and it would make and maintain
such channel for itself, if it were not Tor
the interference of the floods.

Last evening about $3.50 o'clock, the Int.

wharf, having on board committee of the
Indianapolis Board of Trade, sent down the

the food. The committee was the sixth

anything, from Indianapolis down to Cairo,
and they left the boat here, stopped at The

THE SUBJUGATION OF THE MIS-
SISSIPPI.
BY ROBERT 8. TAYLOR.
CHAPTER II.

All plans for the improvement d the
Mississippi that have been prominently
discussed rest upon one or two theories:
one, that the remedy for the evils existing
consists, essentially, in the concentration Of
the water of the river and the equalization
OF its flow; the other, that it consists in the
subdivision and diffusion of its volume.
The former theory is the one held by the
commission and adopted by Congress,
though the other has advocates, whose
views continue to be urged in Congress and
through the press.
There are numerous opportunities to let
out of the channel of the Mississippi large
portions of it's water. The Atchafayala,
which receives it's water from the Red Riv-
err at point only six miles distant from
the junction of that with the Mississippi is
there several feet lower than the Mlssissip-
ri. Mt he present time the water OF the
Red rarely reaches the Mississippi at all,
but for the most part, flows down the At
chaialaya, augmented by large outflow
from the Mississippi. II is only when the
Red is high and the Mississippi low, that
there is any flow from the former to the
latter. The difference Of level between the
Mississippi and the Atchafalaya increases
as they descend, so that at Plaquemine the
difference is twenty-five feet, and the dis.
lance between them eleven miles. On the
