23, 1879-
WHAT OIK PKEMDrlNTS COST.
A corresponcnfc sends to the Boston
"Herald" the following curious calcu
lation: "I have been calculating the
difference between the expense of sup
porting a President of the United States
at the salaries they have received since
the first inauguration of Washington
with the sum of SI 0,000 per year to
each President during his life, the same
to commence upon his inauguration
day, he receiving no other pay for his
services. The result is as follows:
'Salaries from 1780, to 1870, at $25,
000 per year, 2,100,000 from 1873 to
1879, at $50,000 per year, $300,000;
total, $2,400,000. The combined lives
of all the Presidents to this date, dat
ingfrom their firstinauguration, amount
to 280 years, and at $10,000 per year it
amounts to $2,800,000. There being
so little difference in the sum total,
while for most of the times the salary
has been but half what it is now, would
it not be better for the country, finan
cially, and for the Presidents also, if
they each received $10,000 per year
during their lives, dating from their
inauguration? The present expenses of
the Government would be $20,000 per
year instead of 50,000; and it is not
probable that we shall have on an aver
age more than two ex-Presidents living
at ene time, and four would not in
crease the present expense. The ob
ject of the large salary was for the pur
pose of giving the out going President
a respectable competence to retire upon,
and not be driven to mental labor for
his support "Would not the above plan
be an improvement"

Not only holds it own, and fully

stantly presenting new features of at

To the attractiveness of beauty, it adds
the solid worth of the practical and
useful, and deserves to be everybody's
Sunday Magazine. The opening ar
ticle is a highly interesting descriptive
one of "The Ainos," a peculiar race of
people who inhabit the northern part
of Japan. The department of fiction
is unusally rich in continued and short
stories; of the former "David Flem
ing's Forgiveness" is becoming intense
ly interesting as the story draws near
er the consummation. There are nu
merous short stories by popular wri
ters; "Forecastle Jack," by Frank II.
Converse, possesses genuine merit.
Mrs. Elizabeth L. Brooks contributes
a paper on "Culture," which will wed
repay perusal, as will also "Gather the
Fragments," by Rev. Mr. Adams.
The lovers of poetry will not fail to
appreciate the variety and excellence
of the poems. In "Hours with En
glish Sacred Poets," there are the com
positions of James Shirly, "William
Habington and Richard Crashaw.
Among th contributors are Helen
Marr, Marie L. Eve (a prize poem),
S. Gibson Foster, James C. Lamb
James Grahame, Luther D. Bradley,
etc., etc. The Hon. S. S. Cox has an
admirable sketch of the late Professor
Joseph L. Henry. "A Mother's Influ
ence" is by the late Senator Pratt.
"Uncle John Vassar" by H. A. Sey
guern; "Washington and his Mother";
"My Dream" by Rev. R. N. Sledd, D.
D., are papers of great interest Tho
"Home Pulpit" contains a sermon by
the editor on the subject, "Jesus our
Martyr," and there is also a highly edi
fying Exegesis. The miscellany is vol
uminous, embracing a large variety of
subjects interesting, entertaining and
replete with valuable information.

A.N EAST LUX VIEW OF CALIFORNIA.
New York, April 9th. An eastern
journalist, who has returned from Cal
ifornia after a three years' experienco
of newspaper work in San Francisco,
said of the affairs of the Pacific coast
in a recent conversation: "Peoplo
there care very littlo about what goes
on in the East Their attachment to
tho Union is not strong. If thero
should ever arise a second secession
movement, it will not be in tho South,
but in California. The Democrats
there sro hostilo-tho laion, often
openly so, and the Republn
different One often hears talk o;
Pacific Coast Republic There is much
complaint of the ignorance and care
lessness of Congress with regard to the
interests of the coast Land legisla
tion, for example, is all adopted to a
region of verduro, and is consequently
not at all adapted to tho arid sage
brush region where agriculture depends
on irrigation. Thero is not much in
ducement for emigration to California,
and none at all for men to go without
capital. The policy of the great land
owners is to discourage immigration.
Their plan has been to divide society
into two classes wealthy proprietors
and proletariat 1 am glad to see that
a few landholders are taking a new
course, and dividing their immense es
tates into small tracts. California
would support double or treble her pres
ent rural population, but tho land sys
tem must be radically changed. Pret
ty much all the land that can be profit
ably cultivated without irrigation is al
ready occupied. The peculiar climate
of California will eventually developo
a peculiar population. I think one sees
signs of this already in tho younger
generation. In San Francisco, whero
fogs prevail, the young people are
plump, rosy-cheeked, handsome, rather
indolent and fond of pleasure; while
those born and reared in the arid in
terior are somowhat likho Arabs
dark, slender ftflKle. I don't
