POVERTY.

In Gays Of old she lived worshiped saint
Her humble, holy mien by all adOred
Men loved the maid for following their Lord,
And though their love, perchance, was cold and
faint,
Not like the passion of more human birth,
1t was pure and sacred flame, they said
And she was one whom good men vowed TO wed
And thus abjure the Turing snares OF earth.
Alas as time went ON such love grew rare,
Aud with mans favor went the honored name,
Till sneers and cold contempt became her share
Aud she was fain to hide her head for shame.
At length when left by all, Crime sought her hand
And now his sons and hers infest the land
from the Athen8um.

Faaeinr salt to Hogs.

I have seen salt fed to hogs for more
than fifty years, and in the last twenty
years have fed many heavy hogs, ranging
from 800 to 600 pounds net. feed them
all literally with salt have never lost one
nor has one been sick an hour. These hogs
have been fattened In a close pen, and their
principal food was cornmeal made into
dough. This dough l have sailed at least
once a day. Sometimes my hogs would
fail to clean out their trough in that case
l would put handful of salt into my
bucket, with some water, pour it into their
trough, and they would lick it up with
much relish. In addition to the salt I feed
Goals from the stove. I make it regular
custom to feed coal, and it is astonishing
what a quantity hog will eat, and how
healthy and robust it will make him. Let
the hogs have plenty of salt AID charcoal,
and we shall hear less of the cholera.

Bank, was put on trial in the United States
Court this morning before Judge Cot and a
jury. Plaintiff seeks to recover some $15 0O0
the face of certain certificates of deposit issued
by the bank TO him in 1880. Mixter's testimony

of President BeDson's business methods. 1t
seems that Mixter Ediscounred several certifi-
Gates OF deposit, most of them issued by the
bank to James Gamble. One Of them, issued
Aug. 4th, Mixter testified, was by written
agreement not to be presented 10 the bank for

BILE and charged him six per cent per month or

patch says the coroner who went up to the
scene of the railroad disaster on Saturday
morning returned yesterday. He arrived on
the ground at 2 p. m. A large crowd was there
and had already pretty thoroughly investiga-
ted the ash heaps which represented the train.
Human remains were disposed in seventeen
heaps. each one of which vas supposed to rep
resent human being. Some of them proba-
bly, did, but most of them were beds of cal
cined bones that mig ht have represented sew
eral. He thinks the destruction of human
life was greater than is supposed. The leader
of the two sleepers in the downward flight,
from which no one escaped, is believed to have
been pretty we'll filled, and il accommodated
"a persons. In it were placed way passengers,
and many such always get on. Some coins
and jewelry were turned over to his keeping.
SAN Francisco, Jan. 23.-Railroad officials
state that from some of the evidence given at
the inquest over the victims and from informa-
ton obtained by detectives they are now Con
vinced the accident was not due to carelessness
on the part of their employees, but was the re-
suit of an attempt to rob the express Car.
Los ANGELES, jan 23.- The physicians have
concluded that what was supposed to be the
remains of seven human beings picked up at
the track are not human flesh at ALL Dnpli-
cate charts of passengers and sleepers show
that every one who took passage is accounted
for. The number of dead accounted for is
twelve. Two bodies still remain unrecognized.
