It's poor island that does not have its
traditional legend, but Martha's Vine
yard has one that is entitled to the pre-
MUM. 1t says the first Indian reached
the island on cake Of ice and found there
a great giant called Moshup, who had
five children. He caught whales and
roasted them on fires made of whole trees,
which he plucked up by the roots. He
threw great stones into the sea, on which
he might walk, and these constitute what
is now called the DEVILS Bridge. At one
time an Offering of all the tobacco on the
island was made to him, and, after smok-
ing it, he knocked the ashes out of his
pipe and thus formed Nantucket.

A Washington special says that Gen.
Rosecrans has completed the plans for the
enlargement of the capitol building so as
to provide for the increased demand for
room, among other things, for the National
Library. He proposes to add extensions
to both the north and south wings, and
in these the Senate and house are to be
located. The present Representatives
Hall is to be the Supreme Court room, and
the library is to be built on the west front,
and is to be finished similar to the south
front OF the White House. The east front
is to be Temodeled and made much
grander than at present. 1t is proposed
to add about ninety rooms to the capt.
tOl, and Gen. ROsecrans estimates the
total cost at less than would be required
to purchase a site and erect a'separate
building for the library.

The idea Of taxing pistols is a good one
if a law to that effect could be enforced
against the rufians who are IN the habit
Of carrying and unlawfully using such
weapons. but it would be wrong to put
the burden Of such a tax only on the
better classes who keep pistols in their
houses for defensive purposes only. A
rigid enforcement Of the law against
carving concealed weapons is about all
that the country demands on that subject
lust now.

nah continued very uniform. In 1873, the
year following the improvements in the

tons. Every year after, including 1888, the
annual increase was marked, say in
1879 ..............-. o'VUO tons

1S77-say ., ISL. 5O4 tons, with the > years,

The export trade, foreign and coast
wise, for the same years, shows a money
value of $50, 600. The cOastwise in
creasing in ten years $4,000, 600 over the
foreign. in consequence Of the great ia
uneXceptiOnably fast and splendid line
of steamships owned and controlled
by the Central Railroad of Georgia, and
other c0astwise lines working in cOnnec-
ton with them, diverting from the foreign
transient steamers large foreign export
ing business, increasing and holding it
year by year, and getting the cotton to
markets across the water in quicker time,
in connection with the foreign lines,
through New York, Philadelphia, Boston
and Baltimore, thus in a measure, at
least, securing to our own flag the trans
portation of this large amount of bust
ness.
LUMBER.

vannah for the year 1882, cOastwise,
amounted to 52,000,O0U feet; foreign, 49,

The exports Of rice for the year 1882 were
some $4,000 barrels and casks. The re-

same year were $4,000 barrels. The diff

is owing to the fact that much is sent off

some rare instances can give a faint idea

The Late Bad Boy.

''Say, what is this I hear about your
pc and the new minister quarreling, and
your Pc ordering him out of the door,
and his refusing to 60, and hitting your
pa in the ear ?" said the grocery man to
the bad boy as he showed up at the usual
hour.
"Well. it was partly true, but it was all
ajoke," said the bad boy. a. he looked
out the door to see if his parent was in
the vicinity.
"YOu see, it was new minister that
came here to exchange works with our
preacher. You know when they ex-
change works it is as good as vacation,
cause both ministers can ! reach an old
sermon that has been laying around and
got moth-eate The next day after the
visiting preacher preached he came to
our house to stay a day or two, at mas
invitation. Pa hasn't been feeling very
well lately, and ma said he wanted some
excitement, and ! thought of an old
story read once about some students at
q theological seminary making two pro-
fessors believe that each other was deaf,
and how they talked loud to each other,
and thought if such joke was all
right in college where they turned out
young preachers, it would do at our
house, 80 told ma she better tell pa to
talk loud enough, or the preacher
couldn't hear him. You see didn't lie.
but ma went and told pa the minister
was deaf as post and he would have to
yell bloody murder to make him hear. !
don't think it was right for ma to say
that, cause didn't tell her the minister
was deaf, but pa said he hadn't spoken
at ward caucuses for nothing. and he
would make the preacher hear or talk
the top of his head of. I brought the
minister's satchel over from the house
where he had been stopping, and he
came along with me, and asked him
how his voice was, and he said it was all
right, and told him he would have use
for it if he talked with pa much. He
asked me if pa was deaf, but l wouldn't
lie, and all said was if the minister
would yell as loud as he did when he
got excited in preaching, pa would hear
the most of what he said.
o, he said he guessed he wouldn't have
any trouble making pa hear. Well,
ushered him in the parlor. and they
shook hands and I skipped up stairs
just as pa swelled out his chest and tool
a long breath and shouted Glad to sex
your Well, you'd dide. 1t seemed a.
though his voice would knock the new
minister's ear of, but the minister
braced himself, inflated his lungs, ant
shouted, The happiness is mutual l as
sure you" and then they both coughed
cause l guess it strained their lung
some.

ma would laugh, and when the ministe

New York Times (republican): There
will be nothing ambiguous about the de-
feat of Mr.. Blaine. He who runs may
clearly read the verdict in advance. A
candidate unworthy Of confidence, and
a party too careless of it's own honor to be
longer trusted with the nation. That de-
feat will be the salvation of the republi-
can party; it will arouse its torpid con-
science; it will stir it to self publication.
It will depose the false leaders who have
fastened themselves upon it; it will send
the rogues to the background, and will
make the party once more worthy Of
honor and of power in the republic it
has 90 nobly served" The Times con-
cludes by declaring it will not support
Mr.. Blaine, and will advise no man to
vote for him.
