EDITORS HERALD-You erred in your
criticism upon the action of the city
council with reference to the Lockwood
demands for salary.
The court only held that Lockwood or
his assignee could not recover at that
date, because at the time the suit was
com menced Lockwood owed the city
some unpaid fees.
These fees have since been paid to the
city in full, and any objection that ex-
listed to the payment of the salary is re-
moved. Very respectfully,

AN Indlgnant protest.

EDrroRs HERALD: Will you please
give space in your impartial and highly
influential journal to the expression of
profound contempt that the Catholics of
this city entertain for the members of
the American Protestant association.
alias Native American association. That
any man not wholly brutalized would
join such an association IL insxplicable.
This opinion is shared by some OF the
best men of our country of all denomina-
tions--instance an article from the pen
of DR.. Williams, rector of st. Barnabas
Episcopal church of Omaha. Do those
knights of darkness, grips and signs
think that American independence was
In danger from Romanism Gas they ignos
rantly and insultingly term Cstholicity)
when Bishop Carroll was pleading in
conjunction with DR.. Franklin, at the
French court, for French assistance to
be given to the cause of American inde-
pendence, or when Archbishop Hughes
(at the instance OF William H. Seward)
was pleading with Louis Napoleon not TO
recognize the Southern Confederacy or
when General Rosecrans was fighting
the battle of Stone river, or Meade the
battle OF Gettysburg, or Sheridan in the
valley of Virginia? Subsequent to the
incidents last mentioned there was
great danger to American free institu-
tions, namely when the visiting COM
mittee" went down to Louisiana and
falsified the vote of that state, drew a
Gordon OF troops around Washington to
resist the inauguration of the legally
elected presidcnt-that brilliant and
ever memorable exploit was not con-
cocted by the pope.
If love of country and true patriotism
had not been burning in the heart of Mr..
Tilden we wouldn't have a Bartholdi
statue holding up the lamp Of liberty
enlightening the world today. The in
suits to the catholics Of this city in
bringing foul-mouthed blsckguard to
utter false and foul slander against
priests and nuns was not enough to
condemn the vipers to everlasting in
fanny, but they must follow it up by
circulating the old 1854 rehash OF
prients receiving revolvers by the case,
Winchesters by the 1000, etc., etc., in
hope, we presume, of exciting an ignor-
ant rabble to enact another massacre

Amassers of Books.

One has kind of contempt for the col
iector who has no speciality and buys with
out discrimination and even without in
spection Mr.. Heber, the brother of the
Dlshop, was purchaser Of this class. "A
book is book, " he said, and he bought all
that came in his way by carloads and shin.
loads and in whole libraries, on which IN
some cases, he never cast his ewes. The
most Jealous lovers of books have smiled at
his duplicates, quadruplicates and multi.
pied specimens of a single edition,
Rawllnson' another English collector had
the same insensate craving, and if he had 90
copies OF book would always buy another
His covetousness increased as the mass of
his library was multiplied, and as he lived /"
said Oldys, so he died among dust and cob
webs IN his bundles, piles and bulwarks of
paper"
Of a similar disposition was the far more
famous Antonio Magliabecchi, who is said
to have lived on titles and indexes, and
whose very pillow was folio. 1.-THE old
dictionaries lived in kind of cave made
OF piles and masses of books, with hardly
any room for his cooking or for the wooden

The vivisector Held I'm,

One OF the most curious expeditions even

facts for some of the doubling Thomases.
Dr. Bunting cast about for some one else
upon whom he might continue TO expert
ment. He could think of but one plan, and
mat was to 20 into Africa buy two slaves
ana operate upon their stomachs. BY opep-
ing the body near the fifth rib and per
forating the stomach a condition could be
produced similar to that existing In the
person of st. Martin. Therefore the doctor
purchased his supplies and sailed across to
runs III the north of Africa There he
hired native chief with 40 of his follow
ers, paying them liberal retaining fee and
promising alluring largess when the trip
should be ended.
They set forth. The doctor carried 81 900
In his inside pocket, and the chief probably
lay awake four nights thinking about the
matter At any rate on the fifth night he
sneaked into the doctors tent and delivered
a little address over the muzzles of two pis-
tolls When he had concluded, the doctor
passed over his ducats, and the chief passed
over the border along with his renegade
band. They helped themselves to such sun
plies as suited their artless and unenlipbt-
ened tastes The doctor came back with
out retinue, but with deal of experience

NlAoARA,s FASCINATION.
An Indescribable Attraction Well Nigh
Irresistlble to the Spectator.

Irresistible to the Spectator.
Not every visitor to Niagara falls has for
his benefit a full moon every night and a
brilliant sun by day. They tell me that the
grand time to see Niagara is at midwinter,
when huge tons of ice go laundering over
the cataract and the lower falls are one
mass of sparkling icicles. But one cannot
see everything, and Niagara in summer
time is quite good enough for me. Arriv-
ing in the middle of the night, with the
moon at the full, it was impossible even
then to resist the fascination of Niagara's
deep diapason sound of welcome.
We wandered out, the night as light as
day, under acres of white blossoms to see
the upper torrent before it falls over the
precipice This was to be all. The rest
was to be left to the imagination. You
cannot conceive the effect of that midnight
ramble--the eternal thud of the cataract
emphasizing the delicious silence Of the
night. Standing as did on the edge of the
green garden ON the American side, looking
over to the deep and somber belt of pines
on the opposite island watching and eter-
nally watching these angry waters dashed
| into foam and hurryinR to their downfall
| below, IL did not seem to me at first that
| this paratively narrow course could end
| i'm a triumph of magnificence.
But there was no vestige or shadow of
disappointment in the morning. How
should there he? The apple blossoms were
waxen, the grass of emerald green, the sky
| was blue, the sun was in the heavens At
last it was all right with the world. So l
took the picture gradually, piece by piece,
like n miser | lifted the curtain gradually
and peeped at the wonderful scene point by
point and bit by bit The plan was TO walk
by the side of the torrent and to pause at
every resting place-first, the very edge
where the water breaks from its narrow
bed into immeasurable distance and be-
comes a mighty cataract; next, little
lower down, where can be seen = effect OF
the great fall, the majesty of wnich seems
Incompatible; then little further down,
where you find that the first falls are mere
child's play compared to the misty majesty
of the horseshoe falls. The proportions OF
this indescribable picture are so equal and
admirable that at first, as at St Peters in
Rome, you are apt to be little disap.
pointed. You cannot be convinced of the
magniicence of St. Peters unless you &c

| 1t is well known to everybody that the
| seeds of the cotton plant were for many
| years regarded as waste and worthless ma
terial Millions of tons of them have been
thrown away, and one of the perplexities
of the cotton p anter was how to get rid OF
this enormous bulk of stuff that had nc
market value.
Within recent date. hnweYArI cat be
( used iUr mechanical purposes and is easily
salable as good and cheap substitute for
olive oil From 5000, 600 to 5000, 900 tons of
seeds are produced every year, and the
planter finds in 1t a very fortunate addition
| to his profits.
But a still further use has been discoy-

! way to convert this oil into rubber and a
large number of factories in the United
States are making out of it a substance

Caribbean coast.
Nature is never niggardly, and when we
clear out one of her storehouses she imme-
diately opens the door of another. Our
whaling fleets 80 years ago represented one
OF our most important industries Nan
tucket and New Bedford grew rich and
prosperous, sent out scores of vessels ON
long voyages, sometimes of two or three
years.
But whales grew scarce, and we wondered
what would become of us. The Whaling
craft rotted at the wharves, because it was
no longer profitable to man them. Then
some lucky fellow, digging a well in Penn
sylVanla, found to his surprise that oil gush-
ed out instead of water, and all the world
wondered. Other wells were sunk, COM
panies were formed and colossal fortunes
We're amassed. The whales could be dis
pensed with, for under every mans farm in
certain localities was an inexhaustible res
ervoir of the precious fluid.
And now we are told that this whole
delta of the Mississippi is composed of mud
which is valuable as a fertilizer The soil

by the lazy current for 1000 miles, is the
gift of every state through which the river

hence, it will prove bonanza to its own
ers. We ship fertilizers from distant quar-
tiers of the globe, and they are as market
able as wheat or corn. The demand is |
steadily on the increase, and it is not i'm |
probable that the acres of black loan at |
the mouth of our lordly river will be |
shipped for the enrichment of northern
farms.

Time 1t is very interesting.-NewY York |

Olivet college in 1867 showing exceptional
brilliancy in literature, history and the clas-
sizes. After studying theology at Yale, Union
and Andover he went to Kansas, where he

he became pastor of the Eliot Congrega-

from there to the Maverick church in East
Boston, whence he was called by his Chi

at that time was deeply in debt, and DR..
Barrows was making heroic efforts to raise
the burden. His western admirers showed
their sympathy by subscribing 5000 to the
fund.
Dr. Barrows' Chicago pastorate has been
very successful, largely because Of the
superlative energy with which he is en-
dowed. For four years he held services In
Central Music hall on Sunday evenings,
which were mark ed with wonderful results.

Faulkner's Amendment.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13- Faulkner
will introduce in the senate his
amendment to the Sherman repeal
tomorrow. 1t will provide for a
monthly coinage of 100000 in sill
yer till the aggregate circulation of
silver reaches $500, 900, 900, and will
call for the retirement of all bills
under 500 denomination
Faulkner said he had not as yet
canvassed the senate upon the amend
ment, and was not prepared to say
whether it would command suffi-
cient vote to secure acceptance.
However, he had received many as
surances of good viii toward the
principles suggested by the amend
ment from number OF members
who express willingness to support
itin case it is satisfactory in detail.
1t is believed that the great bulk of
the silver advocates, Republicans and
Democrats alike, will support the
measure when they find it impossible
to get anything more favorable.
Many repeal advocates representing
the conservative element on that
side will probably recast their votes
for the amendment giving silver the
limited recognition it is proposed.
1t is definitely known that the in
huence of the administration will be
exerted in opposition to this and
other compromise measures.
Whether the amendment will be able
to secure majority vote despite the
opposition can only be ascertained by
strict canvass of the senate.
