THE ALTO PARANA.

Some Wonderful Scenery in Region Sci
dom Visited by Travellers.
We leave COrrientes at 9 p. m, and at
a distance of eighteen miles reach the
Tres BOcas, the confluence of the Para
quay and Parana rivers. In broad day
light it is curious to observe the two
streams atthe point where q long sandy
spit marks their junction. The waters
of the Parana are of a adirty green color.
while those of the Paraguay are yellow
ish-brOvn, and for several miles the
two mighty streams TOW parallel and
unmiXed, the meeting of the two being
marked by a long line of foam, forming,
as it were, "a white cord stretching down
the middle of the river and separating
the green waters from the brown
waters. The Parana makes sharp
turn eastward, and under the name of
Alto Parana may be followed on the
map up to about the nineteenth parallel
of latitude, where il is formed by the
confluence of the two rivers Parauahy ba
and Rio Grande. A few leagues lower
down, the course of the stream Is inter
rupted by the cataract of Urabupunga-
From this point it runs sOuth-sOuthwest
as far as the twenty-fourth parallel
where it is again interrupted by the
cataract Of GUayra- The region ira,
versed thus far belongs TO Brazil, and
was occupied by Jesuit reductions
in the sixteenth century. Doubtless in
/ the more or less distant future, when
ways of communication have been Great
ed, all this fertile territory viii once
more be occupied. At the cataract or
Guayra the frontier of Paraguay begins,
and the river runs from north to south,
bounding the repu bile, and then from
east to west, until IL joins the Paraguay

WHEN THE SIGN Was RIGHT.
An UnEortunate TFoos5er Who Allowed the
iodine % ConLroL Eliul.

An UnFortunato IFooE5er Who Allowed the
zodiac TO Control Him
There used to be a curious character
named Vellet down in Fulton county,
Ind He was noted over his whole
section as the greatest eater and the
6rmest believer in signs that ever sat
on the banks OF Eel river and angled
for bass. He planted his corn in the
dark of the moon and laid rail fence In
the light. He sheared his sheep when
the sign was in the head, and laid
bare his own neck from the winters
growth of beard when the zodiac point
ed to Taurus. He shingled his barn in
the moons first quarter and gathered
his seed corn when Cancer was king.
He wouldn't ride behind a horse that
hadn't been broken in the sign OF the
reins, and when ScOrpio ruled he con-
sidered a secret safe. There was moth
ing on earth he didn't believe could be
properly done "a the signs, and nothing
that didn't threaten destruction il the
signs We're disregarded.
He had a neighbor named Isaac
Brown, a great joker, who grew rich in
spite of the fact that ne paid no more
attention to the signs, which were so
large a part of Neuet's economy. than
he did to the color of the clouds at mid
night. Finally VelIet died, as eccentric
men sometimes win, and the assessor
came around in the spring and missed
him.
What was the matter with him2"
| asked the official of Isaac Brown.
''Weu, you see" said the sSeptical
farmer, ''I come home one night along
! ia December and told him / had a next
years almanac, and it said man dIdu' :
dast eat meat till the sign of the virgin.
And Vellet says, says he to me; My
God! I can't go without meat till next
! September says he. And I'll be darned
! Il he didn't lay down and die. I feel
mighty bad about il myself for he al
ways paid his debts in the sign of the
erab, and he owed me eighteen dollars. -

Not Altogether Modern.

The opinion held by many people who
have never had their attention especially
turned to the work of Jean jacques
Rousseau is not that he was benefactor
of his kind, but in reality he was one Of
the first apostles of the modern methods
of education, and it is only after all this
lapse Of years that his ideas have come
to be widely adopted. 1t Is he who once
said that we came into the world ignO-
rant, but with capacity; that education
begins at birth; that We learn incredibly
in the first years, and that as impress
sions supply our first knowledge those
impressions should be of the best and
should be presented in the right order;
that the first cry of child is a request,
the second a command: that destruct-
iveness in child is not cruelty, but
activity; that the sin Of children is their
weakness; that strength brings about
virtue. and he who can do all things
will never do wrong things.
This we see to be undoubtedly good
reasoning in the light thrown on the
subject of late years, and understand
ing now how greatly our children are
affected by what they see Us to be We com
prehend more fully what Thales mean,
when he said that men must live in the
consciousness that all around them is
filled with gods, and that this should
keep them more chaste than if they werr
in the hottest of temples. Harper B4-
