yirginian Declarat:on of State Rights.


 The YIrginian Democratic platform has been slow m making Its wa! througl the usual news cnannels. Its trans nilsson by telegraph was rendered lD- practicable from Its extreme length, and 1t has been published in but few evet of tine Virginia newspapers. Some copies of tine document have been made available at the North from these sour ces, and iIs contents have been read with care and anxiety by the class Of conservative thinkers who regard with solicitude the present condition ot the country. One of the declarations T. this delIverance IS calculated to make even careless and easy-goIng partlsHns hesitate and study more thoroughly the questions with which the American peo- pie are confronted.
 One of the propositions adopted by the Virginia Democrats Is as follows:
 "The question of the state deSt has ceased to be one of dollars and cents. It has bec1me one Of State sovereignty. The question If whether the State or Virginia shall be arTaigned before the Federal Courts, controlled by RepublI- can Judges, adjudIcatiug upon the SOW ereIgn rights of State, n the interest of bondhOlders Tn dedsnce of one ot iht plsinest provisions of the Federal Con stitution. We appeal upon this ques- tion to all men, irrespective Of party, and invite them to unite with us n de lending the imperiled rights of the Commonwealth"
 This sinister language IS style that was familiar twenty five and thirty years ago. By substituting "slayery" for the words 'State debt" this declaration cor responds closely to those in wbIch th- rebellion originated, ana which led to the armed conflict between the loya. men and traitors which dTeDched the land with blood, and piled up against succeeding generations the vast burden of debt under which the business, the labor and the property of the country now suffer and are liable to suffer for long years to come. A more threaten ing announcement than tEls IS not cor tained in the political platforms of an! party in the Southern States previous to the period when they adopted the o' dinances of secession
 Have the Virginia Democratic RepC diators determined to precipltate new rebellion upon the countr!? Do they intend to lead the South ID new war for "State rights?" 1T they do not mea' this, what do they mean?-ChlcHgo Journal.

ESquiInau Candy

 There Is certain kind of water fowl in aretc countries known as the doyekie N IS aOout the size of a duck duiie black. has & promipent Mhite stripe on it's wings and its NtO cd feet are of n brilliant red. When sttns m rows on the edge of greenish rock these lite Ted feet are very com spicuous.

In very cold weather the squimau children eat great quantities or fat and blubber; and this iatly food. which seems 10 us so uninvit. Ing. helps to keep them warm and well.
 The only other kind of candy that the Esquimau children have is the marrow from the long leg or shin bone of the slaughtered reindeer. Of this also they are very fond Whenever a reindeer is Killed and the meat has been stripped from the bones of the legs these bones are pa ei on the floor of the igloo and cracked with hatchet until the marrow Is exposed The bones are then forced apart with the hands and ihe marrow is dug out of the ends with a long sbarp and narrow spoon made from a walrus' luSk ] have eaten this reindeer marrow frozen and cooked. and after one be- comes accustomed 10 eating frozen meat raw 1t is really an acceptable tid-bit: while cooked and nicely served it would be delicacy anywhere

The Latest Engines of Destruction.

Two items Of information on the same subject. but from two different parts of the world. merit passing word. It isre- ported that experiments with new Nor denfeit mitrai.leusc have been made in Vienna The new gun. which is the in- venti0n of NJ. Lou>. carries with it an unusual capacity of destruction. The ether item of news comes from Marseilles. and says that Turkey has ordered in that town lye new torpedo boats. The en- zine Of each boat is 10 be of JOO horse power. and two of The new NordLnfelts are to be on the captains iurrets.
 Here -.e see two nstions-4 ustralia and Turkey arming themselves Wi b the latest. the most expensive and the most destructive engines of destruction, and these two engines are by Turkey to be combined The torpedo. which is tn de- strOy under the water or on the water. is to carry on it's turrcis the new Norden. felts. And SD human ingenuity in its latest development is to be used, not for human veal but for human woe
 The late Lord Bcaconsie'd said that Europe was governed by sovereigns and statesmen, ami the result is that some of the richest resources of nations are made curse rather than blessing. It is questionable whether the peoples. if they governed themselves, would make nat terS worse.

A Peep into Nature, Laboratory.


 There is in the town of PhRnixville to. day an exempliication of the operations of nature as displayed in the formation of coal. where it Cdn be found in actual process of transformation from vegetable matter 10 a soft snaIy carbon!c substance, anu the !..y. ... lually changing to Ignite and then again into soft coal of the bituminous form. Go along the Pennsylvania Schuy kill Valley railroad, between ihe first passenger station of that system and the new one and you will find a force of men cutting down the bank there eighteen or twenty feet high. and amid hose rocks perhaps three feet above Inc railroad track, you will ob- serve a black seam
 That blacS seam is a laboratory of nature from above. before the Morgan house was removed and the surrounding bank. big trees sent their roots down through the soil and then through the crcviccs of thc rocks till they reached the seam in question. which in time they filled with roots and flores The gees above died ard the roots and flores con fined in the seam began 10 work. chemical change, took place. carbon was evolved. and coal was the result The laboratory was opened by the building of the rail road before the slow process was fully cOmpleted. so that you can ind there to- day the vegetable and carboniZed matter and Ignite and coal altogether. proving. indeed. that the popular thought that coal crows Is true.
