Wealth of South America.

In the physical world South America is
full of wealth, and nature has bestowed
upon it matchless grandeur in its rivers
and its mountains. Professor Fisher shows
us that inter tropical America North and
South) surpasses all the world in the num-
Der and variety of its plants, while Agassiz
shows us how greatly the wonderful variety
of its fishes surpasses that of North Amer
lea. Of course, much of the country is
now malarious and unhealthy, yet vast re-
gions of elevated and most beautiful sec
tions are most salubrious and healthy, and
clothed with an incredible wealth Of cease
less production Endless varieties of the.
most luscious fruits and beautiful flowers,
with birds of gorgeous plumage and glgan-
tic butterflies, delight the eye on every
hand, far up on elevations where neither
the winters cold nor excessive heat is ever
known, and all nature teens with health,
beauty and abundance. Even the low
levels along the great rivers TEEN with
endless wealth, and invite a commerce that
has scarcely begun, save in few articles.
East of the Andes, and intersected by many
great rivers, is probably the greatest and
most valuable forest on the globe, and al
most untouched by the AK.
In the museum of the Brooklyn Navy
Yard the writer saw many years ago a
collection Of the woods of Brazil that showed
a very great variety, and of beauty and
apparent durability, excellence and value
that must bring them into the channels of
commerce in Europe, North America and
and various parts of the world, Mr..
Thompson, who held the position of consul
for some time, stated in lecture, on his
return, that in travelling on the Amazon he
saw sandal-wood trees that here would each
be worth $4,000, yet of whose value the
natives seem unconscious or Indifferent.
The mighty Orinoco is four miles wide and
sixty-6ve fathoms in depth at Bolivar, yet
it is small compared with the Amazon,
Its many navigable tributaries make vast
system of rivers. This is connected by
natural navigable channel (the Cassaquin)
with the Amazonian system, whose vast
basin covers the continent at this widest
part, and extends from the Andes to the
Atlantic. In Bolivia Formerly known as
Upper PERU, perched high upon the
Andes, is Lake Titicaca, nearly FIVE
thousand square miles in extent, and con-
sidered one of the physical wonders of the
world Its elevation above the sea level is
about twenty-five times that of Lake Su-
perior. Here the inhabitants can plant and
gather potatoes and some other crops any
time in the year. But owing to the great
elevation in that latitude there is neither
summer nor winter, and the climate is too
cool to ripen grain.

How the oyster Aids the Church.

The following is from the pen of writer
in the St. Louis Christian AdUocate I:
"If church is to be built the oyster is sum-
moned to assist in laying the foundation,
and when the cap-stone is brought forth
with shoutings he graoes the occasion and
gives zest to the hour. If debt is press
ing heavily upon the people of God and all
other help fails, the oyster Gin his season }
never fails. If the salary of the pastor is
in arrears, the oyster must iquidate. If
improvements are to be made in the build
ing or the church prepares to enlarge its
sphere of usefulness, the oyster must be in
terviewed. The days of martyrdom, after
all, are not yet past, for the oyster is dying
daily for the glory Of God. His bones are
bleaching upon every field where the church
has fought with the powers of darkness.
The highways along which the church IS
marching her VICTORIOUS columns is paved
with ghastly evidence of his mortality.
His shells whiten in the sun at the door of
the sanctuary Every pastor and deacon is
walking cemetery, and the grand army of
dyspeptics, for the glory of God, multiply
ing every day. Oh wonderful bivalve,
great is thy renown. The whale has afore-
times put on airs because he was called up
on to assist the Lord in. that little affair
with the prophet Jonah. The Galilean
pike that brought the tribute money to
Peter has always claimed patent for nobil-
ity, because he helped the Master to pay
His taxes, but hence-forth the whale and
the pike must hide their diminished heads,
for the oyster has come to the front and he
is greater than ALL

On a California Ostrich Ranch.

Two or three years ago, believe, or
within that time, a small party of capital
lists, Englishmen, made the purchase of
some land few miles from Annaheim, a
wine-producing country, and brought thith-
er from the far off wilds of Africa thirty
two ostriches. The house of the owner of
the ranch is situated pleasantly in sunny
space with the same old-time willows at one
side and vineyard planted near Here
resides the keeper of the birds, Colonel
Sketchly.
These birds are indeed curiosity-from
their height; which is from nine to ten feet
when in an erect posture. They have most
beautiful eyes, large and soft in express
sion, but their feet are homely enough,
large, ill-shaped and ugly Remote as they
are from their native wilds, they seem to
flourish well, and the venture begun at first
under somewhat doubtful circumstances, is
turning out successful undertaking.
These immense birds are kept in corrals,
the Spanish word for yards of inclosure,
one male and two females occupying
place together. A common board fence,
higher than the ordinary, surrounds each
corral, and divides them. There is space
or open lane between the pens-a driveway
for teams, and to carry food to the birds
They eat wagon load of shells in one day,
beside large amount of coarse food, vege-
tables, Alfalfa or clover grass, etc. The
cost of each is 81 700, and their weight is
from 300 to 400 pounds. They lay sew
enty-fve eggs each year, each egg valued
at 500. Their feathers are plucked twice
year; they are on the tail and wings of
the bird, the body being nearly bare.
Each plucking averages $500. The eggs
weigh two-and-ahalf pounds. The male is
black, the tail and wing feathers being white,
aud the female grayish-white. 1t re-
quires four strong men to hold one of these
pets while plucking the plumes. 1t seems
a cruel process, and no wonder the birds
resist so hard.
They are savage and dangerous if at
tackled, and can only be handled after
sock or stocking leg has been drawn over
the head. They drive them into a corner,
and slip quietly as possible behind them to
draw the covering rapidly on. Some feath-
ers are pulled out easily, others are cut,
and one has to understand his business to
prevent the bird from bleeding to death.
They cannot fly or jump, but can keep pace
with the feetest horses When the eggs
are to be gathered a Chinaman is called
into the arena The ostrich seems to have
taken fierce dislike to the smile of the
heather Chinee, and is so taken up with
his efforts to attack him that men slip in
unnoticed and take possession of the eggs.
The life of an ostrich extends beyond that
of human beings, and averages hundred
years. The plumes can be purchased singly
by visitors, the price depending upon the
length and thickness of them. They have
to be afteward cleaned and dyed. No dogs
or horses are allowed inside the inclosure,
as the birds go wild at the sight of either.
The Cinnamon carry their food to them,

DEAD.

Written for the Democratic Advocate.
Sill.
Gone to sleep with the tender smile
Froze on her silent lips"
I've gazed upon her face to-day
They tell me she is dead;
That from the cold. but beauteous clay
The vital spark has fed
Along the veins where once did flow
The life-blood warm and free,
A chill is laid, her hand of snow
Gives back no clasp to me.
All yesl I've gazed upon that face,
So calm. so cold and white;
'Tis hard to think the graves embrace
Must hide it e'er from sight.
The friend priced so much in youth
The eyes, so heavenly blue,
Embodiment of candor, truth
Hidden foFe'er from view,
And we who parted years ago
Have met again to-day;
Met, did say? nay, nay, not so,
The spirit is away.
To Calvary she bore her cross.
She's laid her burden down;
And up beyond the starry coast
To-day she wears crown.
