AnInrentor,s Good Fortune.

Two young gentlemen from Mexico,
 Senors Guadalupe Lopez de Lara and
 Nictoriano Mendoza, both residents cd
 GuaGalRiara, arrived in Nashville last
 Sunday night and until last evening
 We're the guests of Dr. R. H. Franklin,
 of this city, whom they knew in Mexico
 several years ago. Last evening the
 two young men left for Philadelphia.
 where they wlll enter the engineering department of the University of Penn
 sylvania.
 SenOr de Lara has quite an interesting history. His father died when he was quite boy, leaving no means. The boy was placed in a grocery store by his mother, which was rented from a wealthy old Mexican named Don Nicbo- las Remus. Young De Lara by his close application to business as well as the aptitude displayed, attracted the ai- tentiOn and gained the sympathy of Don Nicholas. While in Don Nicholas room one night, Senor de Lara contriyed a useful and convenient matchcase ia which by touching little spring, sil- gle stearine match (such as are used in Mexico) was pushed ont, like the wick of candle, aud lighted. This light would serve as caDdle long CD ugh co light man to bed. Besides this mvei- tive genius, SenOr de Lara showed @ great aptitude with hIs pencil Don Nicholas, who is big hearted man, finally concluded that his grocery-st0re tenant had talents above his busIuess, and offered to educate him for the pro fessiOn or a civl engineer. hI5 prOtege showed that he was both EDprecietiye and worthy of this kindly interest, and during the last two years has been one or the most pT3A-sing pupils Of the engineering school at Guadalaiars. After these two years Of preliminary under competent German Don Nicholas agreed to send his protege tn Philadelphia, where Ee will make a speciality of the study of mechanics and mech8lical irRwing.
 Senor Mendoza Is an intimate fnenJ If SenOr Lara. and IS being educated by his father, man of means.

THE United States IS disposed to protect it's rights in Colorado. In the the Circuit Court of the United States at Denver last week, an amended bill was filed in the Mexican land grant suit the original grant of which WAS for 95,- 900 acres of land. Tn 1869 or 1870 8 survey was made and the original boun- daries fraudulently enlarged to include 8 million and a.half of acres in New Mexico and nearly three hundred thou sand in Colorado. Objection was made. and Tn 1877 the case was decided by the Supreme Court, which those interested thought substautisted their claim, and the title was granted them on Applica- ton. Subsequentlyinvestigations pointed strongly to the belief that the land had been traudulently obtained and the pres ent suit brought is by the government 10 vacste the title. The new bill gives specific detailed history of the frauds alleged to have been practiced in pro- curing the title, and duplicates e1- United States Senators Chaffee and Ohilcott, of Colorado, and Judge Holly, decea sed, of New Mexico. The old blll conceded million and half acres, hence the new bill.

 A good way to control a flock of sheep
 IS to take a eve lamb to the house and
 make pet of it. Use nothing but kind ness, and give 1t a name, teaching 1t to come at the call. Whenever the lamb obeys give 1t something as a reward, such as a grain of corn, piece of bread, or anything that IS acceptable, but never give it blow. When the lamb IS grown, place 1t ID the flock and you will need only to call that one sheep, when all the others will follow. As sheep follow their leader the training of one is the training of all, and 1t Is a saving of time and labor to do so.

MODERN invention, as applied to the production of spurious articles of food, Is becoming an evil whose boneful in fiuence will be felt by mankind for many generations. But few people realize the extent to which adulterEtion is p actised in the manufacture and preparation of foods, and in some cities of Europe municipal laboratories have been established for the purpose of snRlyzing food offered for sale. In Lon it has been found that even flour is adultersted with unwholesome in- gredIents, among which are mentioned plaster, to the extent of thirty per cent; lead, copper, zinc, sulphste of lime, chalk and sulphate of barytes. The effect of most of these articles upon the system when taken into the human stomach iu large quantities, is certainly most unwholesome. Sugar is largely sdulterated; tea and coffee are fre- quently ''doctored," and often are unfit for use; condiments and confections are especially impure and nearly all the iellies sold are manu- fsctured from gelstinous substances in combination with acids. As with food, SO it often Is with drugs and medicines wine, beer and hquors generally. The best medical skill IS frequently unsc- countsblY baffled simply through the impurity of the remedies prescribed, and men who have for many years in- dulged in an occasional glass of popular beverages, now often assert that liquors are not like they were in the olden time. Avarice leads to all sorts of frauds, but the most pernicious are those which im- pair the health of mankind, and which ate often directly responsible for many of their ills, and even insanity and death The subject IS proper one for the laws interference. The mRnufsc- ture or sale of adulterated and unwhole- some foods ought to subject the party guilty of such acts to heavy penalties, and the evil, as far as it is possible 10 do so. be ersdicRted.

4 Warming to the Country.

That the result will fsvorsbly affect the republican campaign of 1881 will go without saying. Never was the con- trast between democratic folly and republican stability and wisdom more distinctly brought to the attention of the nation. Never has the insecurity of the great business interests of a growing country in democratic hands been more plainly shown than now. Never has national republicanism, always moving cautiously, safely, and wisely in the direction of national progress, stood out SO grandly as the pOssessOr Of that oool wisdom and that conservative states manship which have been the elements of its former successes, as 1t stands be- fore the country to-day. It enters the race for 1884 strengthened in the con- tidence of all the people by reason of contrast with the strange follies and the dangerous instsbIlitles of democracy, and it will have renewal Ot courage, which alone is hall the victory. The election of Mir. Carlisle to the Speaker ship of the House of Representatives, and the overwhelming triumph of the free trade and Bourbon elements of the democratic party over it's more con servstive membership, is timely warning to the country, and it IS all that re- publicans could desire.-Minneapolis Tribune.

Nero's Life as Told in BeIgium.

The following extraordinary tale, which Is gravely told by s Belgian con- temporary, ls a curious sample of the inventive genius of our nsighbOrs: "Ihe national library of Paris has purchased for E260 FlOren,mO manuscupt of the fourteenth century, written by the monk Lorenzo Matteoll, which IS sad to be nothing but a translation of the life of Nero, written twelve years after his death by the historian Caius POsthumus Varo. The manuscript IS kind of chronicle of the every day life of the tyrant, impar- tially written. Ills cruel.ies, as well as his smours, are recorded in detail. Ac- cording to this cuuOus chronicle Nero was madly in love for DO less than eleven months with a Roman woman called Julia Qike a modern demi-mOndaineL L Not only did he Overwhelm her with presents, but he also addressed a great deal of bad poetry to her. of which Csius cites several examples. The pro auctions read worthy of Nero. In one of them he tells his lady that with jealous eyes he watches her Ht the cir GUS, following with undivided attention the beautiful gladiator XenOs. He prom ises to combat with his rival and throw him before wild beasts. These chlval rous acts, however, Caius tells us, he did not perform, and the gladiator ob- tained the bride. The manuscript has been, unfortunately, greatly damaged Tn the course Of time, and certain parts of 1t are altogether unreadable.

4 NATIONAL Farmers Congress, con- prised of delegates from many states north and south, has been in session tt Louisville, Kentucky, for the past three days Their object is the elevation of agriculture; the diffusion of better knowledge of farming, and the protec- ton of the interests of producer. They will urge the appointment of Commls- sioner of Agriculture ss member of the Presidents cabinet, ss a means to secure for farmers labor a better re- suit. Agriculture being the ground work of the nations prosperity, all sue cesstll efforts to promote the cultivation and productiveness of the soil must re- suit in general good, and it IS hoped that the deliberations of the present Farm CTS Congress may iDsugurste such sn active interest in agriculture that lasting benefits will result to the farmer, and necessarily to our country.

THE business men of the east are anxious to secure the passage of bill 10 establish uniform system of bank ruptcy throughout the United States. There is no doubt that such bill IS needed. In many of the states and terri torres, foreign merchants suffer severely from the dishonest acts of local merch- ants. The New York Board of Trade and Transportation have taken the mat ter in hand, and will advocate the pas sage of what Is known as the Lowell bIll."

THAT very excellent democratic news paper, the New York Sun, says: The democratic majority in the House of Representatives having definitely planted themselves upon the doctrine of free trade, and having declared their hostili- ty to every form, degree and kind of tariff protection to American industry, it becomes an interesting question how far they will be able to draw to their party the republican tree-trsders of the country. Which is ss much as to say they will secure nothing from the re- publicans. There are thousands of protective tariff democrats who will not vote with their party at the next presidential election, but the Sun does not dare mention that fact yet awhile, but it will come to 1t.
