I113.Ths Resumes Party. I873.
One hundred years ago to-diiy, the great-
est “tea~party" in history was held in Bos-
ton, and three cargoes of the beverage which
cheers but not inebriates was steeped in the
_ g‘reat tea-pot—Bogton harbor. As the day
is to be celebrated in Norwalk and through-
out the country generally, our readers may
be glad to review the details of the proceed
inga on that day. Below we give the story
as told by Leasing in his “Field Book of
the Revolution”:—
Early in 1773 anew thought upon taxa-
tion made its advent into the brain of Lord
North. The East India Company, feeling
the efi‘ects of the colonial smuggling trade,
and of the non importation agreements, re-
quested the government to take off the duty
of three per cent. a pound on their tea,
levied in America. Already seventeen
millions of pounds had accumulated in
their steres in England, and they offered to
allow the government to retain six pence
upon the pound as an exportation tarifl',-if
they would take off the" three-pence duty.
Here was a fair and honorable opening not
only to conciliate the colonies, but to pro-
cure, without expense, double- the amount
of revenue. . But the ministry, deluded by
false views of national honor, {would not
take advantage of this excellent opportuni-
ty to heal the dissensions and; disafl‘ection
in the colonies, but stupidly favored the
East India Company, and utterlylneglected
the'feelings of the Americans. It was a
sacrifice of principle to mammen which
produced a damage that no subsequent not
could repair. - '
0n the 10th at Mayo bill .was passed,
allowing the company to export tea to
America on their own account, without
paying export duty. Ships were immedia-
tely laden with the article, and in a few
Weeks several large vessels, bearing the.
prescribed plant, were crossing the Atlan-
tic for American ports. Agents or con-
signees were appointed in the several colo-
nies to receive it, and the ministry fondly
imagined they had at last outwitted {the
vigilant patriots.
Information of this movement had been
received in the colonies, and, before the
company's vessels arrived, preparations
were made in the chief cities to prevent the
landing of the cargoes. Public meetings
were held, and the consignees werecalled
upon to resign. In Boston the consignees
were known to the public; they were all
friends of Governor Hutchinson. Two
were his sons, and .one (Richard Clarke)
was his nephew. They were summoned to
attend a meeting of the Sons of Liberty,
convened under Liberty Tree, and resign
their appointments, but they contemptuous-
ly refused to comply. This meeting was
announced by the town-crier in the streets,
and by the ringing of bells for an hour.
About five hundred persons assembled at
the tree, from the top of which, fastened to
a pole, a largeufiag was unfurled. Two
‘ days afterward a legal town meeting was
held, at which John Hancock presided.
They adopted as their owu the sentiments
of eight resolutions passed at a public
meeting in Philadelphia a month before,
and appointed a committee to wait upon
the consignees and request them to resign,
These gentlemen equivocated, and the
meeting voted their answer “unsatisfactory
and daringly afi'rontive." 0n the 181h an.
other meeting was held, and nicommittec
appointed again to wait upon the con-
signees. Their answer this time was more
explicit. “It is out of our power to com-
ply with the request of the town.” In the
evening the house of Richard Clark and his
sons, in School Street, was surrounded by a
crowd. A pistol was fired among them
from the dwelling. and was responded to
by the populace breaking the windows.
The meeting, on receiving the reply of
the consignees, broke up without uttering a
word, Thirwas ominous; the consignees
Were alarmed, for it was evident that the
people had determined to stop talking, and
henceforth to act. The governor called a
meeting of the Council, and asked advice
respecting measures for preserving the
peace. A petition was presented by the
consignees, asking leave to resign their ap-
pointments into the handset the governor
and Council, and praying them to take
measures for the safe landing of the teas.
The prayer was refused on the part. Of the
Council, and the censignees, for safety,
withdrew to the castle. -
While the Council was thus 'declining to
interfere, one of the ships (the Darmouth,
Captain Hall) came to anchor :near the
castle. Amqeting ofthe people of Boston
and the neighboring towns was convened
at Faneuil Hall, which being to small for
the assembly, it adjourned to the Old South
Meeting-house. They resolved *‘that 411,9
tea shall not he landed - 311,35 331;,“ 15:61; in
be pCM‘ltd’m‘.“ They also voted “that
~ W’fi’rfRoch, the owner of the vessel, be di-
rected not to enter the tea at his peril ; and
that Captain Hall be informed, and at his
peril, not to suffer any of the tea to be lan-
ded.” The ship was ordered to be moored
at Grifl'lu‘s Wharf, and a guard of twenty-
five men was appointed to watch her. The
meeting received a letter from the con-
signees, offering to store the teas until they
could write to England and receive instrue~
tions, but the people were determined that
the pernicious weed should not he landed.-
The offer was rejected with disdain. The
sheriff then read a proclamation by the
, governor, ordering the meeting to disperse;
it was received with hisses. A resolution
was then passed, ordering the vessels of
Captains Coffin and Bruce, then hourly ex-
pected with cargoes of tea, to be moored at
Grifin’s Wharf ; and after solemnly agree-
ing to carry their resolves into execution at
any risk, and thanking their brethren from
the neighboring towns, the meeting was
dissolved.
From that time until the 14th every
movement on the part of the people rela-
ting t9 the tea was in charge of the Boston
Committee of Correspondence. The two
vessels alluded to arrived, and were moored
at'Grlflln’s Wharf, under charge of [the vol-
unteer guard, and public order was well
observed. On the 14th another meeting
was held in the Old South, when it was re-
solved to order Mr. Roch to apply immedia-
tely for aclearance for his ship, and send
her to sea. The governor, in the mean
.while, had taken measures to prevent her
sailing out of the harbor. Under his direc-
tion, Admiral Montague fitted out two
armed vessels, which be stationed at the
entrance of the harbor; and Colonel Leslie,
in command of the castle, received Hutchin-
son’s written orders not to allow any vessel
to pass the 'guns of the fortress outward,
without a permission signed by himself.
On the 16th several thousand people (the
largest meeting ever to that time known in
Boston) collected in the Old South and
vicinity. . Samuel Phillips Savage, Of Wes-
ton, presided. The youthful Josiah Quincy
was thc principal speaker, and, with words
almost ofprophecy, harangued the multi-
tude of cage: and excited listeners. “It is
not Mr. Moderator,” he said, “the spirit the
vapors within these walls that must stand
us in stead. The exertions of this day will
call forth events which will make a very
different spirit necessary for our salvation.
Whoever supposes that shouts and been-
an Will terminmhe trials of this day
entertains a chit s’ fancy. He must be
grossly ignorant of the importance and
value ofthe prize for which we contend;
we must be equally ignorant of the power
of those who have combined against us;
we must be blind to that malice, enveteracy,
and insatiable revenge which actuate our
' enemies, public and private, abroad and in
our bosom. to hope that we shall and this
controversy without the sharpest, the sharp-
est conflicts—to flatter ourselves that 'popu-
lar resolves, popular harangues, popular
acclamations, and popular vapor will van-
quish our fees. Let us consider the issue.
Let us look to the end. Let us weigh and
consider before we advance to those meas-
ures which must bring on the most trying
and terrible struggle this country ever
saw.” ’
When Mr. Quincylclosed his haranguc
(about three o’clock in the afternoon), the
question was put, “Will you abide by your
former resolutions with respect to not suf-
fering the tea to he landed ‘3” The vast
assembly, as without: voice, gave an affirm-
ative reply. Mr. Roch, in the mean while,
had been sent to the governor, who was .at
his country house at Milton, a few miles
from Boston, to request a permit for his
vessel to leave the harbor. A demand was
also made upon the collector for a clearance,
but he refused until the tea should be land-
ed. Roch returned late in the afternoon
with information that the governor refused
to grant a permit until a clearance should
be exhibited. The meeting was greatly ex-
cited; and, as twilight was approaching, a
call was made for candles. At that moment
a person disguised like a Mohawk Indian
raised the war whoop in the gallery or the
Old South, which was answered from with-
out. Anothcr voice in the gallery shouted,
“Boston Harbor a tea pot to-nightl Hurra
for Griffin's Wharf!” A motion was in-
stantly made to adjourn, and the people, in
great confusion, crowded into the streets.
Several persons in disguise were seen cross-
ing Fort Hill in the direction efGrifiln's
Wharf, and thitherward the populace press-
ed.
Concert of action marked the operations
at the wharf; a general system of proceed-
ings had doubtless been previously arranged.
The number of persons disguised as Indians
was fifteen or twenty, but about sixty went
on board the vessels containing the tea.
Before the work was over, it was estimated
that one hundred and forty were engaged.
A man named Lendall Pitts seems to have
been recognized by the party as a sort of
commander~in-chief, and under his direc-
tions the Dartmouth was first boarded, the
hatches were taken up, and her cargo, con-
sisting of one hundredwand fourteen chests
oftea, was brought on deck, where -the
boxes were broken open and their contents
cast into the water. The other two vessels
(the Eleanor, Captaianames Bruce, and the
Beaver, Captain Hezekiah Coffin) were next
boarded, and all the tea they contained was
thrown into the harbor. The whole quanti-
ty thus destroyed within the space of two
hours was three hundred and arty-two
ch'ests,
It was an early hour} on a clear, moon-
light evening when this transaction took
place, and the British squadron was not
more than a quarter of a mile distant.
British troops, too, were near, yet the
vwhole proceeding was uninterrupted. This
apparent apathy on the;part.o_f government
officers can be accounted for only by the
fact alluded to by the papers of the time.
that something far more serious was ex-
pected on the occasion of an attempt to
land the tea, and that the owners, of the
vessels, as well as the public authorities
felt themselves placed under lasting obliga-
tions to the, riolcrs for extricating them
from a serious dilemma. They certainly
would have been worsted in an attempt
forcibly to land the tea. In the actual re-
sult the lvcssels and other property were
spared from injury; the people of Boston,
having carried their resolutions into effect,
were satisfied; the courage of the civil and
military officers was unimpeached, and the
“national honor” was not compromised.
None but the East India Company, whose
property was destroyed, had reason for
complaint. As soon as the work ofdestruc-
tion was completed, the active party
marched in perfect order into the town,
preceded by drum and fife, dispersed to
their homes, and Boston, untarnished by
actual mob or riot, was never more tran-
quil than on that bright and frosty Decem-
ber night.
A large proportion of those who were
engaged in the destruction of the tea were
disguised, either by a sort ofIndian costume
or by blocking their faces. Many, however,
were fearless of consequences, and boldly
employed their hands without concealing
their faces from the light of the moon.

Woodward's Expected Return Creat-
ing a Scare Among Politicians and
Others-What Woodward Can Tell
About the Ring—Ills Expressed An—
xiety to Get Even with Garvey—
Guarunteee of Safety and Ills Ap-
preciation'of Them .
The anxiety which has prevailed of late
in political circles relative to the rumored
return of Woodward to this cpunic‘uo' say
coming all‘tghewamyi There is not one
sarong them, however, who, in the days
when Tammany was King, loved to bask in
the smiles of the great men whose secrets
were intrusted so implicitly to this distin-
guished absentee, but at present pretends
to pooh-pooh the idea of his return, and at
the same time express boldly the wish that
he would come speedily : but do what they
-will, many of them cannot conceal their
real feelings as to the expected arrival. It
is a fact which it is not necessary, at this
late day, to lay particular stress upon to
make any the more patent to everybody
than it has been for the past year that
Woodward was, so to speak,
THE REAL PIVOT OF THE RING.
In fact he was to it what the hub is to the
spokes Of the wheel. Without him there
would havebeen no secret ring at all. In
him were confided not only all that, Tweed
is said to have done on the sly, unknown at
the time to all the rest of mankind, but
every transaction that was entered into by
any one or two persons, which, directly or
indirectly, resulted'in a fraudulent taking of
the people’s money, Mr. Woodward was
fully acquainted with. It is true that if
Tweed had turned State’s evidence, he
might have made revelations that would
have given the people a much clearer,a
much more comprehensive insight into.
THE EVIL DOINGS on Tun. RING
that all the ingenuity and efforts of the
prosecuting authorities possibly could have
given, and, if rumor speaks truly, been able
to create a very lively panic among a few
of the virtuous men in the city of the repub-
lican persuasion who have so far escaped
even suspicion. But Tweed's power to bene-
fit himself by any revelation li'as passed,and
to get at all these proofs of the Ring’s vil-
lainics, which it has been up to the present
impossible to drag to light, it is absolutely
necessary that Woodward should be induc-
ed to tell his experiences. He knows all
that Tweed knows about the reign of the
Ring from 1869 to 1871, and indeed, knows
more; for, in addition to being the executive
and the go-bctween in many transactions in
which the prominentvmembcrs of the charm-
ed circle were engaged, be, it is said, was
very often the detail manipulator in the
various “outside" thieveries by which the
Treasury was indirectly rgbbed by persons
who have not as yet come even
UNDER THE BAN on POPULAR SUSPXCION.
It will be' seen therefore, that if Wood-
ward can be induced to leave his delightful
retreat abroad and come back to New York,
even for a few months’ stay, and while here
give a full and accurate account, memoran-
dum book inihand, of the good timcsymd
expensive indulgences he and his confidante
enjoyed at the people’s cost, the result will
be startling. Before Tweed was put on his
trial, it is well known to many persons that
an effort was made to get Woodward to
come back to this country, but it was of a
kind that lacked one great essential to suc~
cess—Woodward’s own Wishes in the matter
were not consulted. It was decided to watch

ings from {place to place until, (if he was
foolish enough to do so) he reached some
locality where he could be captured. But
Mr. Woodward didn ‘. giva the detectives
the opportunity desired, and so theicfl‘orts
'Of the municipal committee reformers to get
hold of a strong witness against Tweed
failedimiserably. The plan for his speedy
return homeward since then has been change
ed, and the guarantee policy, as has already
been intimated in the Herald, has been and
is still being put. into strong force. The
District Attorney refuses to say that this
policy has been adop‘tred‘ or that any effort
is being made to get oodward home at all ;
but as he also said some time ago, that he
did not think it proper to let the general
public know beforehand what the intentions
of his office are in regard to matters Of great
importance, his denial may be construed as
a duty he owes to the public as to other
parties who may not be very anxious for
Woodward’s return. It is conceded on all
sides by Woodward’s friends that he cannot
be induced to come back, no matter what
inducements are offered to him, and that
he is

TRAY
made comfortable looking by his very
worst enemies. On the other hand, there
are those who contend that, _now that
Tweed has been convicted, one reat
obstacle in the way of his return has con
removed. So long as Woodwards’s ab-
sence gave Tweed a hope that the prosecu-
would he remain away; for, say what peo-
ple will of him, it is asserted that Wood-
ward would have never, either by word or
deed, done anything that could have
weighed against Tweed on his trial, even
had he been in the city. But, ,no matter
what he may sa now,Tweed cannot be in-
jured by it, and it is this circumstance which
has led many to. believe that, by proper
guarantees, he can yet be made of good use
to the country. Indeed, a gentleman,whose
relations in the past with the parties who
were so active in organizing the war against
the Bin yesterday told a reporter of the
Herald, ( tiring a conversation about Wood-
ward, that the latter had been and is stilt
being ”consulted” about coming back, and
that he had expressed himself as very anx-
ious to “get even” with Garvey, whose
treachery to Mr. Tweed he seemed to feel
desperately over. This gentleman states,
however, that Woodward is not quite as
anxious to come to this countr as he is to
make Garvey out a bigger this than people
suspect; that, so far, he has not been in-
duced to put implicit faith in any premises
of safety that are made to him ; but that, if
he should finally be induced to come, he be-
lieves his testimony would place Garvey in
A TIGHTER PLACE THAN EVEN TWEED WAS IN.
before Garvey came back from his runaway
tour in Switzerland , and that, besides,
many other persons would be reached by
his testimony who have not been mentioned
11 to the present in connection with the
“ ing frauds.” '
“Do you mean to infer,” asked the report-
er, “that Garvey did not tell the truth when
he was a witness in the Tweed case i"
“No, sir; by no means. But. from all I
have been able to learn Garvey only told
but half of what he knew, and that what he
left unteld might be revealed by Woodward,
much to Garvey’s own discomfort and that of
several other parties now enjoying wealth
acquired by means as dishonest, if not as
open, as those employed by Woodward and
the‘bthers we have heard tell of.”
“What do you really think prevents Wood-
.word from coming here under guarantees of
safetyrwhat is the principal obstacle in the
way -
“His own fears simply. As to the rumors
that are being circulated concerning the
District Attorney’s i norance of anything
about Woodward’s w ereabouts I Will say
nothing. Mr. Phelps knows Ills business
well, and he has the interests of the people
at heart, depend upon it. If he finds that
rWoodward can be brought back here, that
his testimony will be the means Of bringing
a large number of plunderers of the city
and county to justice, and that to accom-
plish this all he has to do is to guarantee him
from prosecution in return for his informa-
tion, I think he" will not hesitate. But mat-'
ters just new are in such a state that it is not
proper yet to say more on’this subject. I
will say this, however, that one of the ru-
mors concerning Woodward, to the effect
that the fear that his revelations might hurt
the republican party by implicating some
republicans is preventing the guarantee be-
ing offered, is groundless so far as the Dis-
trict Attorney’s ofiicc is concerned. I am
weight with a man like I r. Phelps. He will
see justice done at all hazards, no matter
who may be affected by any course he sees
fit to pursue. Politics cannot sway him
one way or the other in his ofilcial capacity.”
A DEMOCRATIC INvITATION.
Thus much for the situation at present,
and it may be here added that it is alleged
that-a letter has been sent to Woodward by
a prominent democrat in this city, advising
him to accept a guarantee, of safety ,if ofi‘er-
ed, and come home and make a clean breast
of all the facts he has been the sole possesor
of in black and white since the death of
Auditor Watson.

Hair VIgor,
' For restoring to Gray Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.
, A dressing
which is at
once agreeable,
healthy, and
effectual for
reserving the
‘ _ ' air. It soon
‘ restores faded
,, ._ or gray hair
‘ I 45%} to its original
"‘ ~ -/‘. color, with the
loss and freshness of youth. Thin
flair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and baldness often, thOugli not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are do,
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can .be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that a. new
wtli of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedl-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or fallingvofi‘, and
consequently prevent: baldness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. . Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparatIOns dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but. not: harm it. If wanted
merely for a. HAIR. DRESSING,
nothing else can be’ found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it; does
not soil white cambric, and yet; lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.

THE ’ “ BA‘RTRAM.”
The Bartram Sewing Muchlueis the latest r
tion of inventive genius. It has the ' p 0d“
' I - I U
Semp hasty
of the Wilcox _& Gibbs’, but makes the lock-stitch
with a revolvrng shuttle. which. revolving on its
carrier, is subject to no wear, andrequires no oilinz
by which the thread would otherwise be soiled: and
the wear and friction of a “race" is avoided. This
style of shuttle moves with greater
_ I I
Rapcdety
and ease of operation makingone-thindmorestt‘tchee
with the same motion of the foot, than any other
machine.
Ease. ' .
It is the easiest running of the family of Sewing
Machines. Delicate ladies who cannot use others
can operate the Bartram without fatigue.
Best Needle.
It. has the best {needle in the world—short and
straight with a fiat shank. By simply putting it up
in the needle bar as far as it will go.‘it is set right
and never has to be varied for thick or thin goods.
Durability.
It is, without question. the most durable machine
in the market. as it is so simpl‘yiconstructed (having
ve working parts), that ction is reduced to
t west ‘posmble degree. All the wearing parts
are made 0 the finest steel. and benntifiullyfinished.
- General 'Efi‘iciency.
The inventor, (Mr. W. B. Bartra ,\ has kept one
important feature in view, viz., the it should be so
constructed as not to limit its usefulness to any
specialty of work, but to be adopted tobothlight
and heavy sewing equally well.
We Invite
the public to call at the agenc and examine this
new and wonderful Machine, an allow the agent to
prove all and more than we have said of the merits
of the “ Baum."

THE PABLDOE.
Once I saw a moth at night-fell
(And its dowuy wings were flee),
Flattering about a candle-
Juet betwen the light and me.
Dazzled by the luring glory.
It could not be turned away,
And, at lasflall singed and helpleefl,
At my feet it panting lay,
Then in pity did I raise it,
Brushed the was from either wing,
And I placed it on a flower
With the words “Poor silly thing 1”
But it only struggled upward
Till it reached the stand, and then
(Could you for a moment think of it t
In the candle went again.
Afterward I knew a maiden
And her heart was me and. light;
But a charming mustache lured her.
As the moth was hired that night.
Dazzled by the showy beauty,
She could not be turned away,
And, at last, all crushed and helpless,
At my feet, she fainting lay.
Then in pity did I raise her,
Like moth of wounded wing,
Kissing oft the pallid features,
With the words, "Poor silly thing i.”
But I saw her slowly rally,
As the moth had done, and then
(What a world this is for wonders!)
Into man-sage were: again.

Some years ago there was a student at
' the theological seminary at Andover, who
had an excellent opinion ofhis own talents.
On one occasion he asked the professor
who taught elocution at the time, “What
do I especially need to learn in this depart-
ment 3” .
“You ought first to learn to read,” said
the professor.
“Oh. I can read now,” replied the student.
The professor handed the young man a
Testament, and pointing to the 25th vers
of the 24th chapter of Luke’s Gospel; he
asked him to read that. The student read:
“Then He said unto them, 0 fools, and
slew of heart to believe all that the prophets
have spoken,"
“Ah,” said the professor, , “they were
fools for believing the prophets were they!"
Of course that was not right, and so the
young man tried again: “0 foo 1e, and slow
ofheart, to believe all _that the prophets
have spoken." ' .
“The prophets, then, were sometimes
liars I" asked the professor.
No. “0 fools, and slew of heart to be-
lieve all that the mint: have spoken."
“According to this reading,” the professor
suggested, “the prophets were notorious
liars."
This was not a satisfactory conclusion .
and so another trial was made: “0 fools,
and slew of heart to believe all that the pro-
phets have spoken."
“I see now," said the professor; “the
prophets wrote the truth, but they spoke
lies."
This last critieisin discouraged the stu-
dent, and he acknowledged that .he did not
know how to read. The difficulty Bee in
the fact that the words “of heart to believe' ’
applies to the whole of the latter part of
the sentence; and emphasis on any particular
ward entirely destroys the meaning..-—Re-

now I was Saved.
To every wife whose husband is the slave
to liquor, I any hope and pray! Do not
give up to despair, and if your husband has
any sense of religion or affection for you,
he will, by the grace of God, reform.
For ten years alcohol was my master,
and for seven years I battled fiercely to
overcome him. Sometimes I would abstain
for several months—once for sin-then,
trusting to my own strength, would fall.
My angel wife bore her troubles without
a. murmur, and though delicate and nerv-
ous, never gave way to despair ; was al-
ways most kind and afi'ectiouateiand cling-
ing to my neck, would say, “Poor, dear
John, how I pity you, but let us hope and
pay, and you will yet conquer.” We did
nope euapray, and God in his mercy ans-
wered our prayers, and a happier home on
earth than ours cannot be found.
We are new old and gray and. are look
ing forward to that happy home above. No
memory of the past is ever allowed to mar
our perfect peace, for. we know that the
blood of the Lamd cleanseth from all sin.
My wife says, “‘I love you all the more,
.John, for I know how you struggled, and I
feel proud that I was the instrument in
God's hands of saving you. I never,'even in
the darkest moments, regretted marrying
you, for I thought if I had not you would
have been lost."
Oh i if all wives were like mine, how many
more might be saved, if they would adopt
her course instead of a harsh one—Montreal

A Young Pompeii in California.
California boasts a Pompeii on a small
scale. It is the town of Meadow Lake. on
the Sitfl‘ra Nevada range, 8,000 feet above the
level of the sea. The spot on which it is
situated is full of gold, and in 1865 there was
a great rush thither, 1,200,000 feet of land
being taken up in the summer of that year.
By spring of the next year the Californians
had become perfectly wild over the golden
prospects of the region, and during May and
June not less than 4,000 people found their
way up there, and real estate went up like a
kite, sixty-by-eighty lots bringing from 81000
to $2.500. A stock board was formed, and
the bulls and bears made the wilderness
hideous with bidding for the stock of then-
rious companies. Over $3,000,000 wasepenl
on these rocks, which never yielded more
than $100,000, though they were full of gold
and a town of 600 houses was built. .The
trouble was with the ore, in which there
was some substance that would not yield to
the usual precesses, and in addition the snow
was not unfrequently twenty-five feet deep
on a level, terrible storms being common as
late as June. All at once the people saw
that nature had played an awful practical
joke on them and they abandoned the town
so precipitately that a recent visitor there,
walking on snow-shoes through the streets
on a level with the second stories, looking
into windows, saw the mrniture standing
just as the occupants had last used it.

Common—A correspondent writes;
“Blondes are going out of fashion, and I have
seen many this summer who are allowing
their dark hair to grow in again as it will,
and those headocoverings present a combi-
nation of tints not beautiful even now, when
starting combinations are in vogue. Evi-
dently when the brown hair went out. two
or three years ago, it'said to its diecerders,
‘Keep my memory green,’ and the prayer,
whether intentionally or not, has been heed-
ed, for as the blonde wash wears off, it leaves
a most decided greenish tinge. There are
other unpleasant consequences of the blends
reign visible. You see young ladies whose
faces twitch and features work convulsively
at times, and these are they to whom cos-
metics for hair and face have given disem' e
of the nerves. I know one young lady who
is lame, stammers as she speaks, and his
partially lost the use of half her body from
paralysis caueed by cosmetics. i‘here il no
joke about this. It is paintblly “110.
