helper of women everywhere, has

ington. She says truly-in her ap-
peal to the mothers and daughters Of
America to erect a fitting monument
to her who gave Our Country a
Father that "the sun shines upon
no sadler ruin in the length and
breadth Of our land, than this UNI
finished structure"
The publishers of The Home- Maker
of which Marion Harland is the editor,
ofer, as their contribution to the good
Clause, seventy five cents out of every
annual subscription Of two dollars to
the Magazine, sent in during the next
six months, Every such subscrip-
ton must be accompanied by the

ANTI-MORMON TEST OATH.

The decision Of the Supreme Court
of the United States affirming the
constitutionality of the anti-Mormon
test oath in Idaho effectually lays
upon tho shelf the controversy the
Mormons have so long maintained
that religious:liberty protects them in
the practice of polygamy. The Court
holds that religion cannot be permit
ted 10 cloak crime defined by the
laws of the land, and that church
will not be permitted to defend GRIM
inal practices on the plea that their
following is in accordance with the
code of the church and the articles of
it's faith. There is now. nothing left
for the Mormons to do but to aban-
don the ground they have so long oc-
cupied in this matter, submit them
selves to the laws or leave the coun-
try, 1t does not matter to the people
at large which they do.-ISacramento

why We Sink In Ouicksand.

ouicksand is composed chiefly Of small
PARTICLES of, mica mixed largely with
water. The mica is so smooth that the.
fragments slip upon each other with the
greatest facility, 80 that any heavy body
which displaces them will sink, and con-
tinue to sink until a solid bottom is
reached. When PARTICLES of sand are
ragged and angular any weight pressing
on them will crowd them together until
they are compacted into a solid mass.
A sand composed Of mica or soapstone,
when mixed with sufficient water, seema
incapable Of such consolidation.

disposing Of some Of the various argu-

Queen Victoria In Trade.

When q Queen becomes cattle
breeder and speoulator runs in her
cattle at stock shows, and carries of all

preconceivcd notions Of royal dignity.
Yet this is what tho thrifty old English
sovereign Is doing, and much to the dis
gust of the oattlemen and farmers who

Srscisi 10 the Gazette.
NEW YORK, Oct. %. Your correspou-
dent is able to state positively piece of
news which Is OF the greatest possible
importance TO the financial and railroad
world. When party of flnanciers and
railroad men start off on a western trim
the Inference Is at once drawn on Wall
street that they mean to accomplish
something. This inference is frequently
incorrect. Railroad presidents make
trips over the country for pleasure or for
general observation more often Than for
specific purposes. Hence the VS. of
the departure for the West yesterday of
Morgan and BowdoIn of the firm OF
Drexeli, Morgan & Co., W. C. Whitney
and G. F. Adams was received by
the street with equanimity, despite the
fact that IL was known that Ingalls,,
Marvel. Gould aud Huntington would
join the party. 1t is now positively
known that these gentlemen intend to,
hold conference in the West looking 20
the results which will be of the greatest
Importance. The exact nature OF these
results 10 more or less a matter OF cou-
lecture, but from the representation of
the great banking h.use OF the Wander
