The Cornwall ssHow.,,

In the old days, before the war:
there was an impression general that
an officer of the regular army no mat.
ter how strict soever his incognito
might be, invariably betrayed himself
the moment he "moistened his clay"
by pronouncing the monosyllable
"How!" During the war the volun-
teer officers were quick to pick it up,
and its use, whenever two or three
were gathered together for the
purpose of taking a drink, was univer-
sal. 1t was understood to be arefne-
ment of the Indian gutteral "Ughv'
which the noble savage always
CALCULATED whenever he quaffed his
draughts Of firewater down, and from
the plains it found it's way to the
haunts OF civilization. But, alas! the
popular belief must be dispelled and
the toast caused to give up it's redo
lence Of the "boundless prairie" Re-
search has brought to light the fact
that the word is of Roman origin; at
least we have the authority OF Will
lam Shakespeare for the assertion.
In the first scene of the second act OF
Julius Caesar" the great dramatist
puts into the mouth of Brutus this
speech:
"Caius Ligarius, that Metellus spake Of
Boy, stand aside. Caius Ligarius! How"

lamented King Solomon, hath it.

Flowers that Bloom in Winter.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat
Gilbert and Sullivan have told us
about the flowers that bloom in the
spring, but New Orleans could give
them agreat many points about those
that bloom in the winter.
There never were SO many flowers
at this season in our city, hardly in
the memory of the Oldest inhabitant.
Roses are blooming everywhere
through the city with summer luxuri-
ance, in every shade, from gold to
cream, from crimson to palest rose.
Great glossY-leaved Marechal Mel
vines over doorways are festooning
themselves at intervals with yellow
perfumed globes. Marie Henriett as
are unfolding warm, odorous crimson
hearts, and the Duchesse de Brabant
has been caught in some naughty deed,
no doubt, for she is blushi1g in buds.
The green squares of Mr.. Hutchin-
sons lawns are patterned with multi
colored blossoms, and the passers-by
have thrust greedy noses through the
bars OF the Hartwell fence to sniff at
the roses that were blooming and fall
ing In solitude beneath the heavy fruit
hung boughs of the laden orange trees,
with never hand to gather them.
Mrs. Glover's home, on Seventh street,
has been radiant with roses all WIN
Ter, and the Whitney home, on the
avenue, has been passed with tagging
feet because of the beauty OF blossom
and richness of perfume within it's
gates.

A Wonderful Region.

A letter from Sander, Wyoming
Territory, to the San Francisco call
says: A prospector, hunter and
trapper, who has spent many many
moons in the great Rocky Mountain
chain, and who has lately visited the
portion of the Snake River range
about which so many dazzling re-
ports are in circulation, has Just been
interviewed by the writer. The old
prOspector tells notable tale. He
says that the reports scarcely do jus
tice to the reality, and that tho oil
fields, gold mines, copper veins, and
coal beds of the section are exhaust.
less. The region is spur of the
Snake Mountains proper. and lies be-
tween the waters of the Upper Snake
River and those towering peaks call
ell on the map the Grand TetOns.
The section comprises number of
mountains in detached groups, steep,
high and rugged to look at and as.
cend, but on whose SUBMITS are in.
variably found rough pIateaus, well
timbered and of considerable area.
These pIateaus are the scene of the
recent discoveries.
Everywhere oyer these rough table
lands breaks forth oil in both springs
and lakes. The latter apparently sips
from the soil and fills depreSsions and
spreads over fiat surfaces. The
springs are of almost every variety.
They bubble, spout, well and flow
steadily and regularly. The charac-
tereisticS of the oil fields are phenUm-
email. Every lake and every spring
has an outlet. and these outlets flow
for various distances and are tn
suddenly swallowed up by the earth.
There is no apparent cause for these
startling disappearance. No cavity
in the ground exists, not even de-
preston can be seen, but all at once
the oil stream is lost to sight. There
can be only one explanation and that
is that the whole region is underain
by an immense oil lake, and that the
oilflOWS have secret and hidden COM
munication Herewith.
The gold of the region comprises
both quarz and placer deposits. The
rough table lands are scanned with
huge rocky lodges prolific of free
milling quartz. AT the bases of these
lodges, and in the receSses letting
their sides, are pockets of loose earth.
in which are found in abundance
small nuggets and shot and flower
gold. These placer deposits have all
the characteristics born in soil and
product of the Miners Delight, South
Pass and Atlantic REQ ions, which gave
them their name, and in the palmy
days of discovery yielded hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
Tie coal beds are wide and deep.
The table lands are the homes of in
Vulnerable streams flowing through
terrific mountain canons and gorges
to mingle with the rushing waters Of
the Snake River. Old prOsuectors
know of routes by which the centre
of this region can be reached by
wagon road, and the DEVELOPMENT of
these marvellous fields of gold, oil.
and coal cannot be long delayed.
