Illinois ......... .12 years

Total from 1789 to 1885. .96 years
 In the seventy-two years prior to the Civil War the South possessed the Presidency for forty-nine years, and as good as possessed 1t under the eight years of Pierce of New Hampshire, and Buchanan of Pennsylvania. In those days it made no difference where a man came from, if he was ID sympathy with the dominating Southern element. The extraordina- ry contributions of Virginia to the Presidency, is due not atall to her To- cation, but to the unusual relations ot her srtong men to the Government during the period of the RevolutIo T and the settlement of the Constltu- tion. Virginia has furnished no Presl- dent since Monroe went out in lo24' unless we count the accidental ser vice of John Tyl9r, whose selection as Vice President in 1840 was the re suit of an intrigue.
 Tennessee and Illinois stand next to Virginia. The sixteen years dur ing which Tennessee man bas occu pied the White House include th' eight years of Andrew Jackson, wh' would have been just as strong can didate if he had been born in De!a ware or Rhode Island. They include also the foul years of Andrew John son, who was not elected to the offic of President. Of the two President from Illinois, Lincoln was not nom mated because he hailed from Stat it was important to carry; and Grant at the time of his candidacy, was re garded more as a citizen of the Uni ted States at large than as a son c Illinois.-Utica Herald.

IEining in Frozen Ground.

In talking with an Alaska miner some time ago, he told us that Tn ! summer in the mineral regions around Golow1n bay, the ground was frozen to considerable depth, although messy and boggy on the surface. At a depth of twenty feet in the shaft they had not got through the frozen ground. The heavy coat of moss seems to protect the ice, as iceis pro tected by sawdust and blankets.
 Wm. R. Bentley, of this city, tells of miners working on frozen ground at a very great depth. While at Rath- drum, Kootenai county, Idaho, in May last, his attention was called to phenomenon in the vicinity, and he went out to the saw mills of L. E. Merriam, where there IS a shaft 106 feet deep. From the surface down nearly 100 feet the soil is alluvial, be- ing mostly gravel below eight feet,
 At the lowest point the gravel is frozen solid. He descended the shaft and undertook to pick out portions of the wall of the shaft, but found it like cement, all of the interstlces be- ing full of ice. The shaft Is cut into this frozen ground nearly ten feet, and appears alike to the bottom. The temperature at the bottom is very low, and gives one the sensation of b9ing in an ice-house, How much further the gravel continues, MT Bentley is unable to state. The gravel at the bottom was like that at the top-stratifcation nearly horizon tai. On the surface the timber is heavy fir and other evergreens.
 We made mention not long since of the phenomenon at Aurora, Nev- ada. In the old Del Monte workings 100 feet deep, two deserted tunnels interse ct. There is a very strong draft through each tunnel, and at the point of intersection the temperature is below the freezing point. The water seeping dowI from the upper workings Is frozen as fast as 1t drop: at all seasons of the Year.-Mining and Scientific Press.

Jere Blacks Six Shirts.

Judge Black was very absent mind ed. Once when he was coming to Washington, Mrs. Black said to him: ''Iwant you to promise me that you
 will put on a clean shirt every morn
 ing and I have put six into your trunk. Please do, and do not let me see in Washington papers allusions to your dirty linen" The Judge prom ised, left, and in a week returned. After speaking to his wife he went into his office, where he was soon ab- sorbed in studying case. After a while ir came Mrs. Black, "Why Judge" said she, "what have you done with all the shirts you took to WashIngton?" ''Done with the shirts?" exclaimed the Judge alb stractedly, "Yes the shirtsE' said the matron. "Ohn replied the Judge. ''why I put on a clean one every morning, as I promised you 1 would ' ''Yes, Judge, but what did you do with those you took off? You have not brought a single one back" The truth just then flashed on the Judges mind, and an examination disclosed tue fact that the old gentleman had put on a clean shirt every morning over those which he already wore.

With the Current.

Rarest mood of all the year : Aimless. idle and content; Sky and earth and atmosphere
 Wholly indolent. Low and clear and pure and deep, Nipples of the river sing - Water-lilies, half asleep,
 Drowsed with listening. Tremulous reflex of skies Skies above and skies below Paradise and Paradise
 Blending ever so. Blossoms with their leaves unrolled Laughingly, as they were lips Cleft with ruddy beaten gold Tongues of petal tips. Bush and reed, and thorn and vine Clumped with grasses 1.-the and tall And a web of summer shine
 Woven round it all. Back and forth and to and fro, Flashing scale and wing as one, Dragon flies that come and go,
 Shuttled by the sun Fairy songs and lullabies Fine as phantasY conceives- Echoes wrought of cricket cries
 Sifted through the leaves. Ger the rose. with drowsy buzz, Hangs the bee, and stays his kiss, Even as my fancy does,
 Darling, over this. Lo, let us forget all care. And as listlesS as the day Drift adown it half aware
 Anywhere we may. Drift and curve and deviate, Veer and eddy, float and flow, Waver, swerve and undulate,
 As the bubbles go.

Northern Arizona will very soon be populoHs portion of the great Republic. It has all sorts of mlnes, abundance of timber, a great deal of excellent farming and grazing lands and a climate Or assortment ot eli mates) to suit every person and in dustry. The mountain valleys and high table lands north of Prescott, on both sides of the Atlantic & Pa cinc railroad can, with little labor, be made to grow wheat, barley and vegetables, while its grazing and timber resources are of the very best. What is true of Yavapai county Is also true of Apache and portions of Mohave. This great section of the southwest is. we may say, yet in an embryo state; population IS sparse and scattered. To fill it with indus trious people is now the ambition ot us all, and, to that end, newspapers should devote a great deal of space.

When Sherman fought and won and the news came into distant des- olate country in Idaho, the old miners said it was "a big thing" The discovery of a new ledge from fifty to seventy live feet wide was also "a big thing" and so the ledge took the name Atlanta" and the town was thus called from the ledge. A number of mines are located on this ledge. The largest, perhaps is the Atlanta. It has large hoisting and pumping works, shaft 400 feet deep, a mile or more of drifts and tunnels, two mills, and has taken out more than $1,5OO,0OO in gold and silver ore of high grade.

CATCHING CoLD.-How can a man ''catch cold" in Pullman in July Simplest thing in the world. Sit still most of the time for week, and eat "as much as you want" every five or six hours. Don't restrict yourself to simple food, as fruits, with a little coarse bread, for example. When the feeding stations are reached don't devote the half hour to walking up and down the platform, swinging the arms well so as to exercise the body all over, encouraging the excretory system to keep the body clear, but join the crowd in their rush for an excessive quantity of hot fried stuff wheat starch bread, "pie," and hot slops. Eat till the bell rings for "all aboard" then rush back into the un- ventilated car and sink down in g corner, doubled up in a heap, and sleep off your surfeit. You are pret ty certain to catch" something by the time you land in New York Why not call it a "cold?" Sure enough!- Mining and Scientific Press.
