The English Journalist.
tExchange.l

A foreign resident thus writes of so- ciety ln London The journalist, it is customary to say, is powerful in England, and believe that the multitude of those who are desirous of adding journalism to their regular occupation is, as the sands of the seashore, innumerable. But men who mold public opinion by their writing have seldom the opportunity or the in- clination to mix with society. Certain it is that one only catches Aeeting glimpses of them. But does journalism in Eng land mold public opinion, or what are the relations in which it stands to it? If the articles one reads in the newspapers were a fair reflection of the national mind upon any given subject, and at any particular crisis, then it would follow that whenever the press is excited the country must be excited too. But is that the case Noth- ing of the kind. The London newspa- pers, in the morning and the evening, lash themselves into fury over the short comings of English ministers in every quarter of the globe. Thousands and scores of thousands of Euglishmen throughout the country read those dia- tribes and invectives, for the most part admirably written, with warm approval. But nothing comes of them. The public no more thinks of acting in accordance e with their precepts than it does of taking as it's rule of life the high-Aown senti- ments in the drama which it has just been applauding. Journalism stimulates the people only in theory. The leading arr ticles, though the assertion may seem a contradiction in terms, are absolutely in- effective because they are SO effective. The average Briton, after having read one of them, acts precisely as the pious church-goer does who has listened to a sermon which has kindled within his bosom glow of emotion. Church -goer and newspaper reader alike do their duty. sermon and article equally discharge the function of safety valve. The press in- terprets what it declares to be the delib- crate conviction of the nation. and the nation, with the comment "Quite so P zoe; its way.

 At Wiscasset we put up at an inn kepl by an lrishman, and our bills for the en' suing evening being distributed directly no sooner did the news become public than the little town, which apprehend had never been visited in similar man. nes, became generally disturbed. A crowd soon collected round the inn par. Tor in which we were taking supper, to discover what kind of people we were Several of the more respectable inhabi. tants took the liberty of stepping into the room, drawing a chair by the window and listening to our conversation. Others merely walked in as if to make an inquiry and, taking a comprehensive view of us from head to foot, at once withdrew to imrart the information they had acquired to their friends, while still larger class more diffident than the rest, only opened the door, took hasty glance, and then quickly closed 1t. We were most amused by portly farmer-leoking man, who, by his careless manner and easy speech seemed to be a person of some conse- quence in the town, and who walked into the room, tilted his chair back by the window, and, throwing his boots over a bench, set himself deliberately to listen It happened that Caul6eld was just relat- ing in his humorous manner some ludi- crous circumstance he had taken notice of during the day, and before long the farmer was so well pleased that, clapping his hands to his sides, he threw himself back in his chair and burst into a loud roar of laughter. We put down our knives and forks, and looked round at our uninvited guest in some surprise. On getting over his fit of visibility he re- turned our gaze with a highly-satisfed expression; then, getting up, put his hands in his pocket, and exclaimed:
 "CaPital, gentlemen-capitall You are right humorsome, calculate. Whats te pay2"
 This produced responsive roar from us, whereupon the rather puzzled worthy explained, that from the humor and ec- centricity Caul6eld had displayed, he had supposed that he was relating one of the stories from our entertainment, and there fore, in the true spirit of honest trade, he wished to pay for what he had received. On being informed that we would accept no remuneration for what he had heard, he departed with high opinion of both our talent and our liberality.
 Less agreeable was the disappointment on another ground, of parsonage who merely put his head in at the door and withdrew it the next minute, apparently with much dissatisfaction, for we heard him exclaim to a companion outside l: :" They're not so savage after all."
 These singular attentions, however, though they have only excited our smiles, were to my wife as annoying as they were astonishing; and Caulfeld perceiving this, hit upon plan of relieving us of our wondering spectators without giving them offence. Taking a hint from the of- fer of the honest farmer, he called in the landlord and desired him to acquaint the people at the windows which had neither blinds nor curtains) that our prices were half dollar piece to hear our enter tainment, and quarter to see ourselves. They were too good judges of bargain for this not to take effect.

Some time ago Mrs. Garfield gave R B. Hayes a memento ot her dead bus. band, which is kept with jealous care iu Hayes Fremont house. It is a small brass calendar, with the months, days and years on little cylinders, to be turned as time goes on. This was always on Gar6eld's desk, and he used it for year. in his Washington library. He teok i, to the White House, and made it rule to turn it each morning. thus reminding himself of the right date before beginning the days work. On the morning of July } he turned the cylinder and finished some business before going to his desth at the depot. The little calendar was never regulated from that day, and re. mains now as he left it on that fatal morning, marking Saturday, July 5 I8SI."

The NantiCOke Mine Disaster.

A cave in stope No. of the Susque-
hanna coal company's mines at Nanticoke'
Pennsylvania, on Friday last, resulted in
the entombing of twenty Of the MIN
els. The cave was occasioned by the ac-
cumulatlon of surface water which forced
its way through the sand, rock and cuim
which was precipita:cd by the blasting IN
the mine. It was at first supposed that
the entombed miners could be rescued
and large parties Of men we're put to work
to remove the earth that blocked the gang
ways, but the continued .caying of sand
prevented their making much hcadway.
Work was continued however until Tues
day morning when another huge cave IN
occurred which revealed the fact that the
buried miners were dead and beyond hu-
man help, and also compelled the rescuers
to stop all work in that direction ga Ths
officials of the Lehigh & Wilkesbarre
coal company have commenced to sink a
shaft directly over the stope where the i'm
prisoned miners are supposed to be. 1t
is thought that by doing this they can
reach the victims in about four days.

Attempted Stage Robbery.

An attempt was made by highwaymen
to rob the Speartish stage, running between
that point and Miles City, on Saturday
morning about two O'Clock. The place
selected by the robbers was about one
mile out from Miles City. There were
three of the robbers andas the stage came
laundering along in the dead of night
they emerged from their ambush with
white masks ON and called halt. but the
horses becoming suddenly frightened
broke to run and soon carried the stage
and its driver and one passenger out Of the
range of their shot guns, though they fired
one or two shots. Thus failing in their
efforts to secure rich booty by holding
up the stage the robbers were instantly
beseiged by sheriff's posse who had
learned of their game and followed, Sc
cretng themselves about 100 yards distant
from the ambush. Don E. Dolph and
George Wiswell were captured. The
third member of the party and unknown
made his escape.

The Occur d'Alene Ditch.

Inter Mountain: Those who lost money
in the Ceur d'Alenes land there are several
such in Butte) have watched with interest
the building of the big CGur d'Alene
ditch, the completion of which would, it
was hoped, help out the country. To such
the news that the ditch company has gone
to the demnition bow-wows, will come
like the clap Of doom. 1t appears the
company went into big undertaking too
g-waised, and last week after getting
into debt about $4,000 their creditors
took possession Of the works, and that
ended it. The ditch project is understood
to have been started as stock-jobbing
scheme. Only two Or three miles of ii
had been built and there was yet four or
five times as many miles uncompleted'
This settles the CGur dAlenes.
