N. c., Sept 11.-tSpeeiap-
An eminent citizen of this State, a gen
tlenlan who measures his words when
speaking generally, and who is not ac-
customed to go off half-cocked in a mat
ter of this kind. recently said to me:
''Itis my candid and mature Judgment
that the shocking increase of the crime
of rape in this STATE by negroes on white
females is directly due TO the defeat Of
the only white /irlnn's party at, the polls
and the elevation TO effiee of the present
gang of Republican Eopulist incornpe
tents, who duriAg the eaImIsa ign ~ 1ast
year rubbed up against the, negro as his
social as well as political equal and made
most of the negroes while soliciting their
avotes) believe they were just as good as
any white people, and reinstilled within
them that dangerous feeling Of social
equality which existed once before under
Republican rule in North Cafolind Ise

heard them do time and again deserves
the moose Of the 1ynchers fully as much
as the bestial brute who listens to them
and goes off and assaults a white wo-
man. Both ought TO be hanged"
There is unquestionably much in what
this gentleman said, and which might
be elaborated il space permitted Ger
tain it is that there is a very noticeable
difference in the demeanor towards
whites OF the very same negroes now
and what it was before the Republican,
Populist combine came into power.ro

Bending Cardboard.

An English inventor-name or loca-
ton we do not find given-is said to
have contrived a tool capable Of being
attached to any machine or apparatus
having a t~ransversing slide and a fixed
table that will bend cardboard without
the need of a score cut, thus preserving
the full strength of the material at the
bend. The tool in question is formed of
metal or wood and is in two parts, one
having a recess on one edge and the
other a straight edge, having the upper
edge rounded off to fit into the recess
on the edge Of the first part, allowing
space between eqnal to the thickness Of
the substance to be bent-the length Of
the straight edge to be made to the
longest bend required. In using the
tool, the second mentioned part is made
a fixture to the table machine frame or
apparatus and the first part is attached
to the ~traversing portion. By placing
the cardboard to be bent on the straight
edge. then sliding the second part over
and along the board under a certain
amount of pressure, q bend in the card
will be produced. New York Sun.

n LOBSTER N
An Aquarium Exhibit That Many View
With Lively Interest.

There are few tanks at the aquarium
more interesting than that containing
the Holsters. che Holsters there now are
not great, like some Of the monsters
that have been exhibited, but they are
lively and in good condition, and the
display Of their characteristics as they
move about or pause to eat is almost
startling to one unfamiliar with the
lobster in life.
Whoever has picked up a live lobster
in a market and found the big claws
dropping, as they will if the lobster
hasn't much life left in him, is sure to
be interested when he sees the lobster
here walking off briskly on his slender
legs, carrying his big claws in front Of
him clear of the ground and his heavy
tail clear likewise. His ordinary man
ner Of progression is forward, and when
he turns he swings his heavily weighted
projecting ends with facility, but if he
meets an obstruction or an enemy his
usual way is to cart backward and per-
haps ~diagonally upward through the
water, which the lobster can do with
great s~uddenness.
The Holsters feeding apparatus is
wonderful. About the mouth there are
lots Of little attachments, all the time
in motion when the lobster is feeding,
which slice the food off in little shreds
as the lobster holds it up to his mouth.
If another lobster should come up, this
lobster would know it, even though the
other came up behind or at the side, and
would turn to defend himself or to fight
or to fee or to warn the other away.
The lobster's long feelers he can pro-
iect one in one direction and the other
in another, and with these, as he moves
forward, back Or sidewise, be guards
against danger.
There are perhaps a dozen Holsters in
the tank. In the center of the tank there
is a little rock. There is likely to be
seen upon this rock a little lobster, not
. dull, old lobster lying down, but al
alert young lobster standing up and sup
porting easily his big claws and his
powerful tail-a young lobster ready to
eat, to fight or to run away.-New York
Sun.

of its founder and great editor, Horace
Greeley, and a firm believer in that notable
writer's opinions. Through those mediums

early spring of 1871, and here he has resided
ever since. During his residence in this
beautiful section of northern Colorado, he
has held many responsible public positions,
notably that Of Justice of the Peace, an office
which he occupied u~ninterruptedly for eight
years; and four years ago was reelected to
another term, his name being placed in

No such volume of business, largely

RICHER THAN KLONDYKE.

Stewart Rive. IL Now the Mecca Of tho
asold Hunter.
NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-The Journals
Victoria correspondent telegraphs as
follows:
Great news was that which came
from the north by steamer George E.
Starr, q small party of pioneer miners
Of Stewart river, the scene of the latest
discoveries Of gold in the far north, hav.
ing crossed the pass and taken steamer
at Skagway for Seattle.
One Of the number brings with him
to his home in Seattle no less than $780,
600 in dust, the proceeds Of his own
labor only. His name is not given in
the dispatch from Union mines where
the steamer called for coal shortly after
noon, but the operator and the manager
said that the astounding intelligence is
quite correct.
He also reports that a party of Vic
toria miners has been quite as successful
as he, and millions in yellow gold will
be coming down within the next few
months.
The scene of good luck is said to be
near the point at which the new field
was discovered three days ago, and lat
est reports from the north are to the
effect that even fabulous Klondyke is
now neglected, the miners rushing
from there to the Stewart river, where
even larger fortunes are to be made in
infinitely shorter time.
