ton that still holds us plunged in the
depths of despair. One more quotation
from this surprising letter:
I'VE avoid no issue We meet the
sudden, dangerous, and revolutionary
assault upon law and order, and upon
those to whom is confided by the con-
stitution and laws the authority to up-
hold and maintain them, which our op~
ponents have made, with the same
courage that we have faced every emer-
gency since our organization as party
more than forty years ago. Govern
ment by law must first be assured,
everything else can wait. The spirit OF
lawlessness must be extinguished by
the fires of an unselfish and lofty patri-
otism.
Every attack upon the public faith
and every suggestion of the repudia-
ton of debts, public or private, must be
rebuked by all men who believe that
honesty is the best policy, or who love
their country and would preserve I'M
sullied it's national honor"
These are consecutive paragraphs
taken from near the close of the letter
The only comment they call for IS that
the first might have been, with few
immatsrial changes, uttered by John P.
Altgeld or Eugene V. Debs in opposi-
ton to government by injunction" or
the lawless invasion of a sovereign
state by the federal military, while the
last could easily have come from
Tn1,
Sherman. Altogether the letter is
weak and may we'll prove discouraging
to republicans.

VIII the East Secede?

The most frightful estimate of the
present condition of things in America
is contained in an article entitled "War
to the Knife" published in the Nine
teenth Century Magazine. The writer
seems to be haunted by the dread OF
terrible calamities in case the people OF
the United States conclude that they
are able to run their own financial af-
fairs. He says:
CAS- the north was blind to the dan
ger of secession, SO the American peo-
pie have been blind to the steadily
growing danger that the federal gov
eminent may at no distant day fall
into the hands of the silverites, and
that the eastern states will then be
compelled to choose between utter ruin
and withdrawal from the Union
He points out that "it is to the ignor-
ant west the United States owes the
greenback folly, the protectionist delu-
sion and the silver craze" and while
he now believes the chances for Nc
Kinley's election are favorable, says "a
defeat of the silverites this year sim
ply postpones their victory for four
brief years. In closing he says:
THAT the free and unlimited coinage
of silver means the utter ruin Of the
east, goes without saying. When the
silverites gain possession of the federal
government, the east must submit with
what grace it can muster to complete
and hopeless ruin, or it must
withdraw from the Union and endeayo1
to maintain it's independence by arms.
In order to allay the alarming symp-
toms we hasten to assure the east that
every legitimate business in that sec
ton of the country will be benefited ir
proportion as the west and south, where
their factories find market, are bene-
fitted. But if there be illegitimate pur.
suits that are ruined, we do not wish tc
be held responsible.

up arms against the trained squire.

THE OLDEST LOCK.
Gt Formerly Secured One OF the Dooru OF
n Palace of Nlhsveh.

The very oldest lock IN existence Is
one which formerly secured one of the
doors of a palace Of Nineveh. L. is "A gi-
gantic affair, and the key to it, which ia
as large as one mai can conveniently
carry, reminds one Cf the Sch iptural pas
sage where the prophet makes reference
to such instruments being carried ON
the shoulder. The exact We rds in the
passage referred to are, 'An,l the KEY
Of the house Of David will lay upon
his shoulder. "
This enormous key to the lc,,k from
Nineveh is nearly 81 feet in length
and Of the thickness Of a four inch drain
tile. 1t was found at the end Of a ruin
ed chamber, where a large wooden door
had probably once stood, the gigantic
brass hinges and heavy bars being still
IN fair condition, though somewhat cor
roded. This relic of the olden times has
but few points of resemblance to the
keys Of modern manufacture, or even to
those Of the early part Of the Christian
era The tubular idea had never been
thought out in those days. but the key
is fearfully and wonderfully made, be-
ing equally as intricate piece Cf ma
chinery as the lock in which it was
used A great many of the bars and
pegs in the lock are believed to have
been made of wood, as their places are
now empty. The notches and pegs in
the key, however, show that there were
corresponding pegs and bars in the lock
at one time The great lateral iron bars
at the end of the key, with their com
plicated series Of notches, crossbars,
bumps, etc, are proof that the lock was
once similarly provided This being the
case, it is reasonable to suppose that nc
one time the door to that palace could
not have been opened until the key had
been inserted and the impediment TO
the drawing back of the bolt removed
by raising up SO many bars and pins
which had fallen down into their places
upon the key having been withdrawn
Similar locks and keys were in use IN
Egypt 3, 600 years ago.-St Louis Re

THERE WERE FISH.
But II Took an Extra Quarter to Find

THE most taciturn people in the
world live in western North Carolina
and east Tennessee - said departmC mt
clerk.
II went fishing near Elk Park, and
IN some Of the streams down there is
the finest trout fishing in the world.
There were four of us in the party, and
we went up one Of the mountain creeks
for about three miles A native passed
us, and asked:
Are there any trout in the creek?'
Yep
1--WE threw our lines and fished every
hole in the creek for two miles without
getting bite, then walked back toward
town with empty baskets Meeting the
native again, / said:
g 4 thought you stated there were
trout in that creek?
"'Thar is

The latest computation ON the stars
visible in both hemispheres puts the
number Of such shining orbs up to the
high mark of 100. 900, 600. The astron-
omers have odd ways Of estimating the
number of these brilliant points Of

diameter OF the full moon it is shown
that the area of the whole sky visible
to man in both hemispheres is Al, ,255

reckoning, is only equal to about 2O0,-

People who Ea. Nothing cold.

The Chinese esteem shrimps above all
other things. At a well served table
they are brought ON swimming about in
a glass bowl of water favored with oil
and vinegar, which renders the crea-
lures Historically alive. With an unerr-
ing thumb ard forefnger the Chinese
diner out plucks forth the struggling
fish, nips off the tail at one bite and
casts the useless head behind him.
Shocking as it may seem to an Eng
ish housekeeper, the older the egg in
China the more perfect from an epi-
curean standpoint does it become, for
no Chinaman who has a right regard
for his palate cats fresh boiled egg.
Taken fresh, eggs are sent to soak, after
having been washed, in a tub Of aro-
matte water. After a time they are re-
moved, and the water used in mixing a
paste Of lime ard salt, in which the
eggs are packed in jars. These are her
metically scaled and set aside TO stand
for a month. when they are supI osed 10
be ut for eating. Those left packed in
salt and lime for 12 months or more.
when opened, are found to have changed
color, solidified partly and are odorless
The chief care Of the Chinese is TO eat
nothing cold. Warm or hot food they
absorb in abundance, but rightly they
maintain that cold food lowers the tenn
perature of the stomach beyond the
point where digestion can continue. and
so the whole health Of the body is en-
dangered. -Pearson's Weekly.
