Josh Richards, son of our clever and
worthy citizen, Billy Richards, we are
glad to know has teen acquitted of the
Charge of murder, brought against him
in court OF Louisiana. All the facts
and evidence in the case. prove incon-
testably that the killing for which he
was imprisoned was the result OF acci-
dent. Prejudice, said to be Of bust
ness nature, and false rumors. had set
the tide of public sentiment against
Richards until Hon. r. 5. Ward appear
ed upon the scene and removed all OBJ
stacles and set him free. So that he
now walks the earth absolved and ex-
honorated from false accusation.
This is comfort to the hearts OF his pa
rents who have sustained such severe
domestic sorrows.

A recent monograph on the subject
OF Geographical Concentration in
American Agriculture" written by
John Hyde, and read before the Inter
national Statistical Institute, gives
some curious facts about the cultiva-
ton of hops in this country. In 1S40
the total production of hops in the
United States was 1898, 500 pounds,
&c. IL per cent. of which was produced
in New York, and 40. % per cent. in
Massachusetts, and New Hampshire.
Forty years later the production had
increased to 90, SAC, 1878 pounds, New
York contributing 81.4S per cent. of
the total. In 1890 the hop production
of the country was almost revolution
lied. New York still contained 70. 03
per cent. of the total acreage devoted
to hops, but her yield was only Az. Is
Ter cent. of the total production. The
explanation of this phenomenal change
Is the remarkable productiveuess of
the hep lands of the Pacific Coast
States, the yield per acre, according
TO Mr.. Hyde, being nearly three times
as great as that of the hop lands of the
State of New York. The next ten
years will produce a still greater
change. The census of 1000 will prob
ably show the Pacific Coast producing
The major part of the hops consumed
in the United States. If they do the
production must be enormous, for no
industry in this country is growing
more rapidly than the brewing Of beer.

A discovery, the value of which to
the medical world cannot be estimat-
ed, has just been made known by a
New York physician, announces the
Chicago Herald. 1t is an antidote for
morphine poisoning, and, judging by
the result of an experiment conducted
before a number of New York doctors,
it is complete. The discoverer made
the experiment on himself, much,
however, against the protests of his
fellow physicians, who were less san
guine OF lis powers. Convinced Of the
value of his discovery, DR.. Moor, the
diseoyerer, swallowed three grains of
morphine, a sufficient quantity to kill
the most robust adult, following it
with his antidote. The usual effects
of morphine poisoning, languor, sleep,
death, did not appear. Instead DR..
Moor was the most cheerful and n
thusiastic participant in the discussion
which followed his attempt to commit
suicide" The antidote is the perman.
ganate of potassium.

THE ToR OF LIFE

Sunlight and the morning dew,
And the dazzling dawn OF youth,
When fancy paints the boundless blue
With promises OF glorious hue,
And the world seems walled with truth,
Sunlight and the noontide high
And the wandering ways of men;
In search OF pleasure far and nigh,
They know not where its valleys lie,
Nor how, nor why, nor when!
Sunlight and the evening gale
And the dull twilight OF age;
The eyes grow dim, the pulses fail,
While mournfully the damp winds wall
That blur life's biotted page
Sunlight and the after glow
On the cloudless brow OF heaven:
Though dark and drear the earth below
No pain OF life his soul shall know,
His sins are all ~iorgivenl
