People rushed down to Wall street or 10 the ticker with their usual haste, without so much as sec ing the Cooper Monument boxes. This is the natural history of a New York monument, and wheD the next chapter comes, of selecting a com mittee of prominent men to make an appeal to the country the analogy will be complete. Fortunately for him self Mir. Cooper builded his own monument and there is not the slightest occasion for any postmor tenn efforts in this direction, and in spite of the reckless enthusiasm which rushes into the deathbed chambers and cooly arrange for measuring victim, it is quite clear that Peter Cooper will never have any other commemoration in New York except that which he and his relatives have provided or will pro vide.-Philadelphia Times.

Silver City Enterprise A miner working in the Eureka Central met with a horrible accident a few days ago. He lit four or five blasts and started for the surface, but became sick or nervous and fell out of the bucket. The blasts went off, tearing off an arm and leg, and otherwise mutilating the body. An inquest was held by esquire Marshall, who decided that the death of the unfor- tunate man resulted from an acci- dent, and that no one was to blame

Naturally, and by instinct, wo-
man has a strong tendency to look
on man OF genious as god, and
to offer him worship as well as love;
but in the fatal intimacy of daily
life illustrations soon vanish, and
she finds that inst ad,except in mo-
ments of inspiration, hel divinity
is even weaker than an ordinary
mortal, less able to guide OF

the knowledge that her idol Is only

The Future Of the South.

In letter to the Boston Adver-
tiser, Wendell Phillips says of the
south:
The handwriting is so plain on
the wall that none but a fool need
mistake it. New England is
doomed just as sure as natural laws
will produce fixed results. New
England has no soil worth mention
ing, and her wealth has been de
prived from her manufactures.
These are gradually leaving her,
and eventually they will all go;
some to the west, the most to the
south, where the advantages for
profitable manufacturing are all 10
Gated. The coal and iron in the
south are easily gotten at and mex
haustable in amount, and the iron
mills, the foundries and mac hine
shops can 60 to them better than
they can be carried to the shops.
Then cotton and woolen mills must
go there, for the raw materials are
and are to be, produced there, most
cheaply, uniformly and better
Then look at the advantages of the
extra hours of daylight in a years
run. This, of itself is no small |
matter. AS the south grows strong
er and stronger the wealth the cul- |
ture and power of the country will |
be centered there until she will not
be alone the mistress of America,
but the central empire of the world.

Don't send the children to bed
hungry. No matter if you were
taught that it is very injurious tc
eat just before retiring. Expert
ence and science have taught US
that this is one of the old exploded
theories, and that people should
eat when they are hungry, if TIN y
get up in the night to do it. Ami
mails sleep after eating, for the rea-
son that after full meal the blood
is solicited to the stomach to sup
ply the juices needed in digestion.
For the same reason human beings
digest their food better during
sleep than when awake and active.
An infant almost always wants its
substance the last thing before go
ing to sleep. and if larger children
claim the same, they undoubtedly
need and should have it.-Farm

of the late Judge Black: One day
he was surrounded by bevy of his
personal friends on the floor of the
house, among the rest were Judge
Mercur, then the Bradford con

SAID: Judge Black, you have
more friends on this side of the

ought to be republican. If you
would join US we would appreciate
you and give you due prominence"
TO which Judge Black made reply
that he knew it all to be true; the
republicans were good fellows; he
would like to belong to them, and
there was only one thing in

no hereafter, 1 would join the re-

OF all love affairs in the world,
none can surpass the true love of
the big boy f + his mother. 1t is
pure and noble, honorable in the
highest degree to both.I do not mean
merely a dutiful affection. l mean
a love which makes a boy gallant
and courteous to bis mother, say
ing to everybody plainly that he is
fairly in love with her. Next to the
love of a husband, nothing so
crowns a woman's life with honor
as this second love, this devotion of
a son to her. And / never yet knew
a boy turn out badly who began
falling in love with his mother.
Any man may fall in love with a
fresh faced girl, and the man who is
gallant with the girl may cruelty
neglect the worn and weary wife.
But the boy who is lover ef his
mother in her middle age is a true
knight who will love his wife as
much in the sere- leaved autumn as
he did in the daisied spring time.

mile posts and sign boards, would
be wise economy. Each county
should have an engineer, with term
of office sufficiently long to protect
from popular caprice and prejudice,
and with compensation sufficient to
ensure competency. His duties
should be to superintend the con-
struction of new roads and the
maintenance and repair of the old
ones. There should be some sys-
tenn in opening and in working.
The present method of working is
eXecrable. Travel and traffic are
subordinated To whims Of laziness
and stinginess. 1t Is true economy
to build good road and keep it in

permanently employed to work.
