Borings 0f400 to 500 feet have shown that these often consist of long successions of silts, which alter- nating layers of shelis and of vegetable matter prove to have been deposited at or near the sea- level, and the Wealden and eocene formations in the British area show that such accumulations may exceed 1,000 feet in thickness. In the case of deltas, subsidence must keep pace almost foot by foot with the accumulation, and be confined to the area over which the sediment is being deposited, tor any more rapid subsidence would check its growth and convert it into an estuary. Thissinking 1s apparently of univer- sal occurrence. A similar instance of the trans- fer of weizht from larger areas andits precipita- tion on a very circumscribed area is seen incoral atolls and reefs. The explanation of their for- mation given by Darwin requires a gradual sub- sidence keeping pace with their growth, which takes place within 20 fathoms of the surface only. This theory, simple and admirable as it is, accounting satisfactorily tor all the observed phenomena of coral growth, has been contested by Mr. Murray, who has shown that atolls might be merely incrustations of yolcanic peaks. But this theory seems improbable by contrast, for it demands 290 volcanic peaks at the sea- level in the Pacifle coral area alone, every foot of which has been conrpletely concealed by coral growth, though few volcanic craters are known so near the sea-level outside this area. We seem thus to have in coral growths another | evidence of subsidence keeping pace with the increase of weight, sometimes, as soundings The replacement of a column of sea water 100 fathomsin depth. by a column of lime-stone, would increase the pressure per fathom from 619! tons to 1.487 tons, su that it is easy to realize how vast must be the increased pressure on such an area as that occupied by the great reef of Australia, 1,250 miles long and 10 to 90 miles broad. The sands, gravels, and clays, with mazine shells and erratic boulders, prove that a great submergence took place during the glacial period, while Europe was under an ice- sheet 6,000 feet thick in Norway and diminishing to 1,500 in Central Germany. The extent of the submergence has been perhaps understated at 600 feet in Scandinavia. and was at least 1,350 feet in Wales. A corresponding re-elevation accompanied the disappearance of the ice. It has often been supposed that the sinking of the west coast of Greenland is similarly due to its ice-cap.— Nature. ——_— 7 Hum and Tobacco, From the New York Times. In Boston they tell this story of Parkman, the historian: When President Arthur was in New England ‘ast summer he was given a lunch at the country place of an eminent citizen near Boston. Mr. Parkman happened tobe left com- paratively alone with the President for some time. Gen. Arthur, probably not knowing who his companion was, fished around for atopic of | conversation vainl;, until Mr. Parkman hap- | pened tu say that he lived in Medford, where- | upon the President brightened up and spoke of Medford rum. The two gentlemen animatedly discussed Medford rum, its excellencies, its | qualities, and the dimiculty of its being obtained in its best state. The President wanted to know how and where he could get the best, and the historian gave him much valuable information on the subject, until he was relieved from duty by the arrival of the other guests. Rallled on the subject of this important con- versation a little later, Mr. Parkman said that he had met two Presidents in his time, and that the _— discussed by each were a little pecu- Har. In Washington, during Grant's adminis- tration, he had been left alone with him tor awhile, and the President, who happened to be in one of his thoughtful mooas, absolutely de- clined to talk at all, although Mr. Parkman started divers suggestivé themes. Finally to- bacco was mentioned, when the great soldier awoke at once and delighted his interlocutor with his quaint sayings, minute knowledge, and far-reaching researches concerning the weed. “And so,” says Mr. Parkman, ‘‘my conversa- tion with the two Presidents of the repubiic whom it has been my good fortune to meet has been confined to rum and tobacco,’ “Fiftwyears hence,” says a Detroit Lake cap- tain, “the sizht of bark, briz or schooner 9a the iniand waters will drawa crowd aga curtosicy, Steam is knocking out the sail crak by the dozea.” Gold studs | of mica and sparkling minerals | Round | EIGHTY THOUSAND SHEEP. How a Big California Range is Man- aged. From the San Francisco Call. The little schooner Santa Rosa arrived in port from Santa Barbara a few days ago, She comes up to this city twice a yearto secure provisions, clothing. lumber, etc., for use on Santa Rosa island, being owned by the great sheep-raiser, A. P. Moore, who owns the Island and the 80,000 sheep that exist upon it. The island ts about 30 miles south of Santa Barbara, and is 24 miles in length and 16 in breadth, and contains about 74,000 acres of land, which are admirably adapted to sheep-raising. Last June Moore clipped 1,014 sacks of wool from these sheep, each sack con- taining an average of 410 pounds of wool, mak- Ing a total cf 415,740 pounds, which he sold at 27centsa pound, bringing him in $112,349 80, or a clear profit of over $80,000. This is said to be alow yield, so it is evident that sheep-rais- ing there, when taken into consideration that shearing takes place twice a year, and that a profit is made off the saie of mutton, etc., is Very profitable. The island is divided into four quarters by fences running clear across at right angles, and the sheep have not to be herded, like those ranging abont the footiil Four men are employed regularly the year round to keep the ranch in order and to look after the sheep, and during shearing time fifty or more shearers are employed. These men secure forty or fifty days’ work, and the average number of sheep sheared a day 1s about ninety, for which 5 centsaclip ts paid, thus $4.50 a day being made by cach man, or some- thing over $200 for the season, or over 2400 for ninety days out of the year. Although the | shearing of ninety sheep a day ia the average, a | great many will 0 as high as 110, and one man | has been known to shear 125. Of course every | man tries to shear ns many as he can, and owing | | to haste frequently the animals are severely cat by the sharp sheare. Ir the wound 1s serious, the sheep immediately has its throat cut, and is turned into mutton and disposed of to the butchers, and the shearer, if in the habit of frequently inflicting such wounds, fs discharzed. In the shearing of these 80,000 sheep a hundred or more are imjured to such an extent as to necessitate their being killed, but the wool and meat are of course turned into profit. Although no herding is necessary, about 200 | OF more trained goats are kept on’ the island continually, which to all intents and purposes take the place of shepherd dogs so necessary in mountainous districts where sheep are raised. Whenever tho animals are to be re- moved from one quarter of the island to another, the man in charge takes out with him several of the goats, exclaims in Spanish “Cheva" (mean- ing sheep). _ The goat through Its training un- derstands what is wanted. and immediately t | runs to the band and the sheep accept it as thelr leader, followiag wherever it goes. The goat in turn follows the man to whatever point he wishes to take the band. To prevent the | Sheep from contracting disease it is necessary | to give them a washing twice a year. Moore | having so many on hand found it necessary to | ipvent some way to accomplish this whereby notso much expense would be incurred and time wasted. After experimenting for some time he had a ditch dug eight feet in depth, a little over one foot in width, and one hundred feet long. In this he put 600 gallons of water, 200 pounds of sulphur, 100 pounds of lime, ‘and 6 pounds of soda, all of which is heated to 130°. The goats lead the sheep into a corral or trap at one end, and the animals are compelled to swim through to the further end, thus securing a bath and taking | their medicine at one and the same time. | The owner ot the island and sheep, A. P. | Moore, a few years ago purchased the property | from the widow of his deceased brother Henry for $600,000. Owing to ill-health he has rented it to his brother Lawrence for $140,000 year, and soon starts for Boston, where he will tle down for the rest of his life. He still retains an interest in the Santa Cruz Island ranch, which is about twenty-five miles southeast of Santa Barbara. This island contains about 64,000 geres, and on it are 25.000 sheep. On Catalina Island, sixty miles east of Santa Barbara, are 15,000 sheep, and on Clementa Island, eighty east of that city, are 10,000 sheep. iles west of the same.city is San Miguel, ch are 2,000 sheep. Each one of these |ranches has a sailing vessel to carry frelght, fete., to and fro between the island and the land, and they are kept buay the greater of the time. ——__—<e.

He has built up on San Francisco bay a new port called Costa City, with magnificent store-houses and plers from which the wood ot those rich counties is shipped direct to Europe and the world. O'Brien, Flood’s partner, is dead and his fortune distrib- uted. Mackey, one of the bonanza crowd, is thought to be worth $60,000,000, and Jim Fair worth perhaps €40,000,000.” Said I; “How inthe world did Flood and O'Brien ‘make such fortunes ‘Just In this way, my friend,” sald Mr. Hyne- man, taking upa piece of paper and a pencil, “Flood and O'Brien kept a saloon, and the drinks were twenty-five cents apiece.’ Fair and | Mackey were miners who for some years did not strike anything very rich. So they gave mining stock for the drinks instead of | money, The habit was to walk into the saloon with three or four friends, ask for the drinks | and drink them, repeat ‘and say tothe bar- | keeper, *This is mine,’ and walk out. The bar- keeper made four marks with a pencil anda fifth mark across them, signifying $1.25 for each round. ‘These rounds would go up toa pretty high figure, but on a certain occasion Mackey or Fair would say, ‘Well Flood, we want to make a settlement for drinks,” and valuation current at that time, which Flood and O'Brien put into the safe. Behold!

The ten- dency of such new-fangled families is to be voluptuous.” ns = Dr. Price’s Druidical Revival. From the London Daily Telegraph, January 15. The Inhabitants of Pontypridd were, on Sunday night, stgrtled by flames on the topof ahill near the residence of the well-known Dr. Price, who claims to represent the Druids, and dresses in their ancient costume. It was soon brnited abroad that the doctor was engaged in cremating | the body of an infant, and hundreds of inhabi- tants gathered round him. Popular indigna- tion was intense, but nobody dared to interfere, as the doctor thréatened to shoot the first one who did so. The body of the child was ina barrel half-flled with parafiine oil, and flames shot up to a great height. Dr. Price was, when first observed, chanting the supposed Druldical incantations. At length a constable seized him from behind, the fire was extin- ‘ulshed. and the charred body of the infant was discovered, and was, with Dr. Price, taken to the -police’ station, great difficulty being expe- rienced in preventing the crowd from lynching him. Yesterday morning he was taken be- fore the stipendiary and formally remanded till to-morrow. The inquest on the infant takes place to-day. From the well-known en- thusiqsm of Dr. Price in all that appertains to Druidism it is supposed he was disposing of the body according to Druidical rites. The childs birth was never registered, its mother having been fined for non-reg- istration. The death also was not registered, the doctor's views onsociai ethics being as pecu- lar as his costume, which consists of fox-skin cap with tail for tassel, a white tunic, and green trousers with scarlet stripes. The doctor is well known in connection with Gorsedd meet- ings at the Elstedfoddan. Hitherto popular sympathy has been in his favor, but this last es- capade has caused much indignation in’ Ponty- pridd and neighborhood. Dr. Price has been a member of the medical profession tully haif a century, and has bven known as an advocate of Druidism and a decided believer in cremation. He has, it Is understood, expressed a wish that when he dies his body,shall be burned, and has had an oven built at his house for this purpose. —+o-—___ SeEcRETARY LINCOLN is believed to have in his possession several letters written by his father during the latter's early lite. The Cincinnati Enquirer 1s furnished the following, written in 1846, by its New York SonrOnpprd eae “Thave been elected to Congress. We have another boy, born the 10th of March. He 1s yery much such a child as Bob was at his age, rather longer order. Bob is short and low, and I expect al- ways will be. The new- boy talks very plainly, ind is quite smart enough.

From the New York Sun, “Yes, I deal in antique furniture, and get up new furniture on antique models, and repair things, and soon, but my principal business is in waxing ficors—hard-wood floors, of course. That is increasing all the time. I don’t have much to do with the floors of dancing halls, hecacse the men having charge of them get &€ Way of waxing the floors themselves. is ia private houses that my services are in demand. Three years ago there were very few wax floors in New York resi- dences, but they are all the rage now among New Yorkers who live in good style. Some have them because they are nice for a german or a small social party; but they aré also popu- lar among those who donot dance, for they give an air of richness, of well keeping, and are so much cleaner than carpets ever can be. When you sweep a carpet you send up a clond of dust and fibers from it, but that cannot be the case with a waxed floor, which gathers no dnst, and the more it-is swept and brushed and polished the smooter and brighter it becomes. A hard- wood floor should be waxed thoroughly three or four times a year, besides rubbed occasion— ally by the servants of the house. “To wax a floor properly we first clean it with turpentine, so that not a speck of dirt is left either on the ‘surface or embedded in the ex- posed pores of the wood. It the wood is rough we sometimes scrape it and give it a coat of shellac, to fill the pores, When it is perfectly hard, dry and smoothed we apply the wax in one of two ways, either hard or melted, with turpentine. If the latter, it is laid on with a brush, left to dry two or three hours, and is then polished with brushes. The wax used is common beeswax. Here is one ot the brushes, very large, flat, and made with very stiff bris- tles. They cost ¢4 a pair, and are made large, so that if desired one of them can be fixed un- der the foot by means of a strap, and the pol- ishing done by wagging the leg to and fro. That way of brushing is employed in dry waxing, which is much the hardest, and requires most. vigorous polishing. “Dry waxing costs about four times as much as the other, and will last two or three times as long. In either case the wax has to be een right into the grain of the wood. It will not do to put oil on a waxed floor, as it will render the surface gummy and sticky and nasty. If prop- erly done oijling makes a floor nice, but is ever 80 good as waxing, and costs nearly as much. Raw linseed oil, mixed with turpentine tor a drier, is used. Price? Weil, that depends on the size of a floor and to some extent on its con- dition. One, say, 14 feet by 16 feet, will ordina- rily cost $5 for oiling, $7 to £10 for waxing and $50 for dry waxing. ‘There are some floors here that I have waxed regularly for eight years past.” ——-e.—_____ Pigmy Trees and Miniature Land- scapes. From St. Nicholas, In some ways the Chinese and Jananese gar- deners are the most successful of any in the world. They can control and direct the growth ot plants to a degree that seems really marvel- ous until the principle upon which it is done is known, when, as in many other matters, it be- comes quite simple. The Chinese have such a strong liking for the grotesque and unnatural that the handiwork of their gardeners !s not as pleasing as that of the Japanese gardeners. The Chinese understand the dwarfing of trees; but thelr best work is in so directing the growth of a tree or plant that it will resemble some hideous animal which is only fit to exist In a nightmate. The Japanese, on the contrary, are remark- able for their love of what Is beautiful and gracetul, and, consequently, ugly forms find no favor with them. Every Japanese has a garden if it be possible; but, ‘8 space is valuable in Japan, only the very richean have large grounds, and the family in moderate circumstances must be content with a garden often smaller in area than the floor of one of our hall bedrooms in a narrow, city house. - Nevertheless, that small garden must contain as many objects as the large garden, and, of course, the only way of accomplishing the de- sired result is to have everything in miniature. Itis no uncommon thing to see a whole land- scape contained ina space no greater than the top ot your dining-table. There will ve a moun- tain, a stream, a lake, rocky grottoes, winding paths, bridges, lawns, truit trees, shrubs and flowers; all so artistically 1aid out as to resemble nature, Itself. In the lake will swim wonderful ®: filmy-finned gold and silver fish, and not infre- quently the tall form of acrane will be seen moving majestically about the tiny landscape. This seems wonderful enough; but what. will you think when I say that almost the same land- soape is reproduced on so smalla scale that the two pages ot St. Nicholas, as It Hes open before you, can cover it! Inthis case, a tiny: house is added; deiicate green moss takes the place ot grass, and glass covers the lake where thewater should be. Counterfeit fish swim in the glass lake, anda false crane overlooks the whole scene, Just as the real crane does the larger, landscape. “The mountain, winding walks, bridges, and rocky grottoes are in the little landscape; and real trees, bearing fruit. or covered with dainty blossoms, are in their proper places. These trees are of the right proportions to fit the landscape, and they are, consequently, so tiny that one is tempted to doubt their reality; and more than one stranger has slyly taken the leaves or fruit between the fingers, in order to make sure that the dwarfs do truly live, and are not likethe fish and crane, mere counter- feits. These miniature tandscapes have been successfully brought to this country; and on one occasion alady of San Francisco used one of them as acenter-piece onthe table ata din- ner-party, greatly to the wonder and admiration of her guests, who could scarcely be convinced that the almost microscopic apples on the trees were genuine fruit. And now comes the question—how Is the dwarting done? The principle is simple. The gardener merely thwarts nature. He knows that, toggrow properly, a tree requires sunlight, heat, moisture,, and nourishment from the soil. He takes measures to let the tree have only Just enough of these to enable it to keep alive. To begin, he takes a little seedling or cutting, about two inches high, and cuts off its main root. He then puts the plant ina shallow dish, with the cut end of theroot resting against a ston, to retard its growth by preventing nourishment entering that way. Bits of clay the size ofa bean are put in the dish, and are so regulated In kind and quantity as to afford the least poss!- ble food for the little rootlets which have been left on the poor little tree. Water, heat, and light are furnished the struggling plant in’ just sufficient quantities to: hold life in it without giving it enough to thrive on. ambitious attempt to thrive, in spite of these drawbacks, 1s checked by clipping with a sharp knite or searing with a red-hot fron. After trom five to fifteen years of such treat- ment, the only wonder is that the abused tree will consent even to live, to say nothing of bearing fruit. Feminine Economy. From the Boston Herald. “Nothing for dinner?” asked a Park street gentleman the other day when he went home and found his wife sewing and a cold bite set out for him. “I'm so busy, dear,” murmured the good . woman. “Sew I see,” remarked her hi id, Then he took his hat, went down” Woman’s Exchange and had a hot 1 Tolls, hot meat pie, coffee and a delict _ “An excellent meal,” he pleasantly as he latd down the it. ~ “It ought to be good,” replied the lady cash- fer; “your wife baked ‘that pie, and made the rolls and the pudding; she is such a good cook that we keep her busy sending in lunches all the time.” “You might have knocked me down witha feather,” he said afterward to his confidential friend. “I thought we were getting a good many new things up at the house, and that Sue was awful economical, and here sere just been starving it outof me. Well, well! Ittakesa woman to practise economy—at some other fellow’s expense!” ———___.9.___. 5 Plantation Philosophy. From the Arkansaw Traveler.

In addition, any |, Indian Penies. From the St. Pau! Pioneer Press, “The possibilities ot the Sioux pony have never been dreamed of,” sald a cow gentleman (one of the aristocracy of the genus cowboy) to a Pioneer Press reporter recently. “You know the old plains saying, ‘Let a white man ride an Indian pony until he can’t make him move a step further, and, dismounting, give place toa Sioux—the latter will ride the brute twenty miles further that day.’ “Unpromising looking? Well, they are not retty a8 a rule, though I've seen some dandies. rn Jay-Eye-See out ina Dakota winter, and give him just what food he rustled for—cotton- wood twigs and bark and scanty buffalo grass mostly—and I don't guess he'd show up in very marvelous shape in the spring. I was at Sully once, just as retreat was sounding off—sun- down, you know. An Indian rode up on a pot- bellied, scrawny-skinned, splay-footed, matted- haired calico, and gave a letter from thi ju- tant at Fort Hall to the Sully adjutant. To an interpreter who happened to be standing by, the Indian, a Brule Sioux, remarked that he had ridden a good way that day and his pony was tired. The adjutant noticed that the Hall letter was dated that morning, and, his interest being aroused, asked the messenger when he left his post. He replied that he started just after first sergeants’ call (after day-break). Subsequent investigation proved his truth. He had ridden that eorry nag fully 104 miles in less than thir- teen hours, and much of the way the road would have been hard on a bird. I tell you, we treated that mangy-looking brute as if he had the bluest blood of ail the barbs in his veins. ‘Almost any officer on the Missouri river can tell you of the famous ride Gorse, the scout, made trom the Stanley expedition. I don't remem- ber the miles (something over 300 in less than four days), but I know he only used one pony and went straight across the most God-forsaken country in America. The Indians’ war ponies are always the best of the herd, and receive a good deal of care. A ‘buffalo pony’ ranks next. You can tell one by the notch In the points of the ears. A good buffalo pony knows how to elude the charge of a mad bull as well as I know how to skin an antelope; stops just at the right time, and runs at the proper speed. You take a green horse and hunt buffalo, and you'll find the affair isn’t so tame after all. “I'd like to see some attention paid to raising good Sioux ponies. You can't imagine how quickly they show the effects of half-way decent care and plentiful tood. Tricky? Well, not so terrible. You see, they regard their masters as natural enemies, and treat them accordingly. They are apt to shy badly, but that’s because they've stepped into prairie dog or fox holes occasionally, and every tuft of long grass or mound of gravel creates suspicion. Ilges can tell you how his five companies of infantry got through the terrible campaign of 1880-81. The dough boys had Indian ponies for mounts, and the little devils would paw away the snow to get grass—mercury frozen in the tube, mind you—and when they reached Keogh, after the campaign, were actually fet and full of kick.” ee a American Cooks and Cooking. From the London Daily News. From the dreadful corned beef and cabbage and the fearful fish-balls of crude American cookery the family of Delmonico has by degrees led the American public to the consideration of higher things. The favorite dishes of the great republic have been concentrated in New York, and recent arrivals are hospitably challenged to compare anything in the old world with them. Politeness prevents such comparisons, which would hardly be in favor of either hemisphere. In fish and game, despite its wide area of river and prairie, America can in no way compare with the raw products of this country. But it has its specialties. The oysters of Blue Point and Shrewsbury river may not be denied, any more than the canvas-back nourished on the marshes of the Potomac, the terrapin captured on the shore of the Delawage, the snapping tur- tle from the far west, the gumbo soup of New Orleans, or the pompano fish which rejoiceth the Mexican gulf. What the Delmonicos have done is to bring the enjoyments of the two hemis- pheres into combination. They have known how to make the clams, the oysters, the sheeps- head and other strange fishes familiar to the great army of gastronomists who reach Manhat- tan Island. ——-——_-e-—___ A few days since a private in the Hampshire regiment at Gosport, in England, called upon the Almighty to strike him blind. A little while afterward he felt drowsy, and threw himself on abed. On trying to open his eyes he could not Hasler military hospital, not having recovered his sight. Such, at least, is the account given in an English newspaper. James A. Troutman recently sent circulars throughout Kansas, and has received answers from sixty-six out of the eighty-one organized counties in that state, from which he makes the foliowing deductions ‘as to prohibition: 1. That it has materially decreased the number of sa- loons. 2. ‘That a large per cent of the prosecu- tions under the law have resulted in convictions. 3. That the principle of prohibition is growing stronger. The Supreme court of Towa decides thata wife deserted by her husband, without her her family of young children, has authority to sellthe personal property of her husband to obtain money. A vender of nostrum in Baltimore takes a position on a street corner, rolls up his shirt sleeves, disclosing very muscular arms, and exercises with a heavy dainb bell. A crowd Is quickly attracted, and to them he sells a medi- cine which, he declares, will make anybody as etrong as he Boston has hada little experience of the Char- ley Ross order. A boy named Jesse Dean disap- peared from his home, and, after keeping the police and the newspapers agog for a week, coolly returned with the story that he had been on a trip to the provinces, begging his trip both ways with a tale of distress. At Schenectady, N. ¥., Nicholas Sauerborn, in discussing politics with John Steffens, a crip- ple, said that President Arthur was a “genuine dude.” Steffens called Sauerborn a liar and was knocked down. Sauerborn was fined $5. ‘TIS WISE TO PROVIDE AGAINST EMERGEN cies that are liable to arise in every family. A cold may be a dangerous thing, or not, depending upon the means at hand to combat it.
