came back to me with the request to make 1t
wind easier. On, examination found that
the stem was rusty, and I enquired into the
cause Of it. The gentleman stated to me that
he was starting some saw logs that had lodg.
ed in the bend of the river. when his chain
caught in bush and threw his watch into
about twelve feet of water, and he WAS about
two hours finding it. When he got it out 10
was running and he thought all right. In
about three months he found that the stem
was hard to turn and sent it to me.

nanor, ON Cirr FINANCES.

In the Council proceedings published
to-day there will be found tull re
mort upon the books and accounts OF
the CITY Treasurer, City Marshal and
Clerk of Council, prepared by j. de Bruyn
Hops, Esq. 1t is well written docu-
ment, and presents plainly stated ant.
pointedly written facts about the nnanciaI
management of the city that are OF vital
interest to every property holder and tax
payer.
II the lesson which is TO be read ''be-
tween the lines" in Mr.. Hops report Is
needed bv those who are now and may
hereafter be entrusted with the supervi-
sion of the peoples interests, then the
recent trouble in the Treasurer's depart
ment will have proved blessing in dis
guise.
The report states that during the years
IS79-1SS2 inclusive, 1.-the city issued 3d.
400. 600 new bonds, without making sin
gle entry or record in any of the books IN
the Treasurer office, as to when and how
they were appropriated, and the only
memorandum Of our entire bonded debt
Is none other than is contained IN the an
nual reports of the Mayor"
If any incentive be needed TO ensure
business-like management of the affairs
Of the city, it may be found in these words
of Mr.. Hops, also quoted from the report
aforesaid: Il am quite prepared
to add that such bookkeeping
would not be tolerated by
any respectable commercial house,
but. looking at it from an unbiased point
merely, it is we'll for you TO consider the
possible i'll consequences of such acts;
for if such a course be at all sanctioned,
remember that there is but one step from
faulty booking to false entries" The re-
port abounds in similar impressive state
ments, but we select the foregoing as
eyidencing its importance.

GENERAL NOTES.

There is $1,693,577 worth OF taxable
property in Astoria, Or.
There is not a wooden mill in New Mex
leo, and there are u, 100000 sheep grazing
on its mesas and valleys.
In the UTuguayan department of Pay
sandu the wife of a Brazilian planter had
three plump girls at birth, on the fourth
of April, and all three had complete sets
of teeth. Although only two years mar
ried, the couple have already five chill

Nineteen per cent. of all the school chill
dren in Austria have blue, thirty-five per
cent. gray, and forty-six per cent. brown
or black eyes; forty-four per cent. have
blonde and fifty-siX per cent. dark hair:
while seventy-twO per cent. are fair and
twenty eight per cent. dark complexion.
1t turns out that the flaming sword that
fell from heaven and landed at Accord,
Ulster county, y. Y, is a cIumsily made
thing, the blacksmith being German who
worked several years ago for the man who
claims to have seen the sword fall. The
humbug is of the cheapest sort.

From Fall River comes the report that
plumber doing repairs in beer saloon
opened a faucet TO get drink of water,
and observing its rusty color, VIII ich he
took for iron, let it run 10 clean itself,
until the proprietor observed what he
was about, and without ceremony ordered
him to shut off that beer faucet.

At recent English wedding the mag
nificent bridecake, weighing about one

The whole was surmOunted with a vase to

The ~Old Ticket

The Hon. samuel J. Tilden, Of New
York. who. il viii be remembered. is the
only American President that did not
take his seat when elected, positively de-
clined a denomination, in lssO. The Hon.
Thomas \. Hendricks. Of Indiana, VINO,
it will also be remembered. was elected
Vice President in 1876. concluded
i'm ISL that he had claims for
first place. The convention thought
otherwise. and nominated General
Hancock. who, towards the close Of a
promising campaign pronounced the tar
il "a local issue" very much, as his
friends suspected. TO the injury of his
cause. The other day the Hon. Thomas
A. Hendricks got himself interviewed
but not for publication and in the course
OF some deservedly eulOgistic remarks
upon the character Of the Hon. SamIe
J. Tilden. announced his readiness 10
run on the ..oId ticket" How
Tar this lately aroused readiness on the
part OF Mr.. Hendricks to do what he
might have offered TO do in 1850 would
have contributed then TO the consumma-
ton Of what he desires now. need not be
discussed.
Meanwhile we ara assured that the up
per end Of the "old ticket still adheres
90 his previously announced reluctance
o. lead his party in national struggle,
not that he l. 'Out Of politics. strictly,
but because he thinks he sees a leader
capable Of doing the heaN y work Of such
a struggle. and who would receive the
benefit Of the valuable counsel he Mr..
Tilden) could afford him. The Hon.
Joseph T. Mcdonald. Of Indiana, is
said TO be Mr.. Tilden's choice for
the head Of the Democratic Presi-
Dental ticket. Mr.. Mcdonald has many
admirers and is regarded as a very de-
sirable candidate in many parts Of the
country. But there is no scarcity of
Democratic timber. Judging from the
signs the woods is full Of it, But as to
the '-old ticket 1t was Opportune in
ISL. 1t was appropriate, it embodied an
issue that was calculated to insure its
success. 1t was rejected. and a great
deal Of history has been made in the in
terval. 1t is quite as ill-suited to the
times as would be that of HancOck-and
what's his name-English.
The leaders for 1874 are men who will
represent Democracy and nothing else
who viii have the courage Of their con-
victions. and who Will not relax their
vigilance till the result Of the will of the
people i declared according to the forms
prescribed by law. Besides, considerable
time has vet 10 elapse ere a choice can be
made, and while the people will view
with interest the progress Of the respec-
tive inevitable bOOms, it is quite probable
that the Democratic candidates in 1884
Will spell their names quite differently
from most, if not all, ofthe prominent gen.
tlemen thus far suggested.

of this value, according to the best testl-
mOny, is the increase of cattle within two
years.
The Pittsburg StOckHldR says that ten
years ago the Wyoming Stock Growers
Association was organized with ten men,
bers. representing 5000 cattle, worth
$500. 900. The membership now numbers
about 100, representing 100000 cattle,
worth $50, OO0, 900. Last year 100000 head
were sent to market, netting the owners
about 81 .OOO. 900. These figures relate TO
only single section. while in other parts
of the great domain stretching from the
British possessions to the Rio Grande an
equally wonderful growth has taken place.
