grooms.
He caught Grace's pretty, unreluctant
hand in his and pressed it rapturously
to his lips, with smile quite as trium-
phant as her own, and a glance whose
intense and mischievous meaning was
not explained until after the quiet we'd
ding, at which May Prescott was the
only guest, for Mr.. and Mrs. Sylvester's
prudence and worldly wisdom still con-
demned their impulsive daughters esca-
pade, though their partial tenderness
forgave it.

Grace submitted with the best humor
possible; she had tested Franks love
and gained her own end, and all was
bright before her inexperienced eyes.
After the wedding, Frank asked his
bride:
care you quite satisfied with your
choice of poverty, and glad that your
marriage occurred to-day instead of a

THE YELLOWSTONE.
BY DAISY h.

(From the Butte Miner.)
The Yellowstone flows peacefully
Oer pebbly bed, with rich, sweet song,
While dancing streamlets gleefully
Join in the chorus full and strong.
Low, grassy banks, where pine trees tall
Are mirrored In the water clear,
Confine the stream in gentle thrall
And prove the haunt for bear and deer.
But, hurried on by restless power,
The river rushes on in scorn
OF narrow, rocky walls that glover
And shut out sunlight rays Of morn.
In maddened haste the water falls
Down !! down the rough and rocky height
Its emerald sheet, by cruel walls,
Is dashed to foam of snowy white.
Then, gathering up its shattered pearls,
1t hastes away in reckless glee,
Until, again, its flood It hurls
Down awful depths, DER bank and tree
And now, the foaming. dashing spray
Boils up In rage at baffled race,
While sunbeams kiss the drops in play
And 10! a'rainbow takes their place.
The tireless stream, with zeal uncooed,
Glides on through Natures rarest scene.
Its ribbons course, by grace still ruled,
Reflects rich shades and evergreen.
The painted walls, of wondrous depth,
With surroundings still and lone.
Make all who come, with bated breath,
Stand awe struck by the Yellowstone.

A New Artillery Projectile.

A. Krupp, of Essen, has just taken out
patent for Aat-headed artillery proyectile.
The pointed projectile, as is we'll known,
are apt to defect when striking iron plate
or water at certain angles. The new
projectile, slightly tapering at the butt, will
not only pierce the plates all the more
easily, but it is also calculated to hit the
ironclads below the water line. In order
that the resistance Of the air against the
tlattened head may not impede the celebrity
Of the projectile, the latter is provided with
a pointed tin cap, filled with grease, which
cap drops off on striking the object, and,
greasing the head OF the ball, facilitates its
entrance.

Presumption Swindles.

The following paragraphs are extracted
from pointed orticle on the above subject
III the st. Louis Republican,. 1t sits down
heavy on system which for wholesale
"windling excels anything ever heard OF in
these United States. The act, created to
aid the masses to secure homes, falls far
short of its intended use, and is given into
the hands Of few land sharps who grow
fat and rich from speculation in 1t:
"rhe presumption feature in our public
land code was enacted for the specific pur-
pose Of enabling actual settlers to secure
farms on the public domain. and to protect
the domain from Spectators. But it seems
that in the Northwest the presumption law
has been seized by the SPECTATORS and en-
p'oyed to defeat the very purpose It was
intended to serve. The provisions Of the
law are uniformly disregarded. One-half
ct the lands taken up in Dakota, are de-
ciared to be irregular. In some townships
there are not more than fifteen actual set.
tiers, and yet the lands are all taken up;
and few townships are found where only
four or five houses are to be seen, vet spec
ulators own all the land, having secured it
through false swearing under the pre- emp.
ton law. A very large proportion Of the
immigrants moving into the Northwest
are forced to buy their lands, not from the
Government at Government prices, but
from sharp spectators at double and three
prices.
ut is to be hoped that some efficient
measures will be adopted by Congress to
prevent this abuse. The public domain
should be kept for actual settlement only.
1t is not good for the country that the rich
grain lands Of the Northwest should fall
into the hands Of spectators, jobbing cor.
porations and baronical owners. Huge
Dalrymple farms Of $4,000 acres each, are
features to be sternly discouraged. 1t would

An ANTS BRAIN.


Well may Darwin speak Of the brain of
an ant as one of the most wondTous parti-
cles of matter in the world. We are apt
to think that it is impossible for 80 minute
piece of matter TO possess the necessary
complexion required for the discharge of
such elaborate functions. The microscope
will no doubt show some details in the
ants brain, but these fall hopelessly short
of revealing the refinement which the ants
brain must really have. The microscope is
not adequate to show US the texture Of
matter. 1t has been one Of the great dig
coveries of modern times to enable US TO
form some numerical estimate of the exqui.
site delicscy Of the fabric which we know
as inert matter. Water or air, or iron may
be divided, but the process cannot be car
ried on indefinitely. There is e well-de-
fined limit. We are even able to make
some approximation to the molecules in a
given mass of matter. Sir W. Thomson
has estimated that the number OF atoms in
cubic inch of air is TO be expressed by
the figure g. followed by no fewer than
twenty cipheFs. The brain of the ant
doubtless contains more atoms than an equal
volume of air; but even # we suppose
them to be the same, and if we take the
cAAS VI AL oAlb o tlaiu w ba % iAAGlG EllnG
one.thousandth of an inch in diameter, we
are able to form some estimate of the
number of atoms it must contain. The
number is to be expressed by writing down
E and following II 0Y eleven ciphers. We
can imagine these atoms grouped in so
many various ways that even the complex
ity of the ants brain may be intelligib,e
when we have so many units to deal with,
An illustration will perhaps make the NJ
gument clearer. Take q million and half
of little black marks, put them in a GER
tain order, aud we have wondrous result
