BENNETTS GIFT SURPASSED.
London, Feb. 11. It'is reported in
the lobby of the House o Commons
that the Baroness Burdett-Coutts in
tends giving half a million pounds to
afford permanent relief for Ireland.
The laay who intends performing
this unsurpassed act of generosity has
already gained a world-wide reputation
for her muniflcient charities. The
Honorable Angelina Georgiana, Baro
ness BurdetfcCdutrSp is tnTTyoungesF
daughter of the late Sir Frederick Bur
dett, and granddaughter of Mr. Thom
as Coutts, the enormously wealthy
banker. In 1837, on the death of the
Duchess of St, Albans (originally Miss
Mellon, the actress, who, as Mr. Coutt's
widow, enjoyed a life interest in his
property), the whole of the vast for
tune left by the great banker came into
Miss Burdett's possession, on which oc
casion nhe added Coutts to her name.
The extensive power of benefitting her
fellow creatures thus conferred, Miss
Burdett-Coutts most wisely and liber
ally employed, until her philanthropical
projects have become famous. AJcon
sistently liberal member of the English
Church, her munificence to the estab
lisment in all parts of the world have
been the theme of admiration. The
handsome Church of St. Stephen,
Westminster, with parsonage and three
large schools was erected at her expense.
She has also built a church in Carlisle
and the Church of St. John at Lewis
ham. She has endowed the colonial
bishopries of Cape Town, South Africa;
Adelaide, South Australia; and British
Columbia, at an expense little short of
half a mil ion of dollars. She supplied
the funds for Sir Henry James's topo
graphical survey of Jerusalem, and of
fered to restore the ancient aqueducts
which supplied the holy city with water

Whenever a man draws a prize of a
squeaking pair of boots from a shoe
store, he always gets them Saturday
night, and by church time the next day
the squeak is fully developed. He ar
rives at church during the long prayer
and upon his entering, the usher gives
him an admonitory gesture of silence.
The first step inside of the sacred pre
cincts is followed by a sound like that
of ripping a clap board from the side
of a barn, while the ladies on the right
side of the aisle tip their top knots on
ohe side and squint from their left eyes
thosA on the other side reversing the
order. Balancing painfully and ner
vously on his corn, he makes a more
gradual effort and is rewarded by hear
ing the same harmonic reverberance,
like "linked sweetness long drawn out.'
Then he tries to navigate on the balls
of his feet and waddles along on his
heels. He clutches convulsively at the
side of the pews to lighten his weight;
knocks down an umbrella or two and
gets all of the deacons to raising their
bald heads, and the skin across their
foreheads, and scowling as they do the
rest of the week. So he determines to
mince matters no more and trots along
fast, ierkinc out spasmodic shrieks
with a regularity that is unattainable
in any other business and reaches his
pew with all his under garments turned
to porous plasters.
The great quantity of stow on the

Klamath, while the &outhern and east
ern sides of Mount Shasta, the eastern
side of the Trinity range, together
with all of Modoc county to Goose
Lake valley, in Oregon, willl pour in
to the Sacramento. As the Klamath
is a swift stream, running through
great canyons nearly all the way to
the coast, no unusual flooding of coun
try is expected, hut the Sacramento
will test the levees and flood the Sacra
mento valley to a large extent, to cause
great damage and loss. In our own
county Scott river is likely to cause
much loss to farmers in flooding their
lands on the island, until too late to
seed, especially since the stream has
been filled up with debris during late
years, which might be remedied a good
deal by pulling out the willows, which
catch the floating sand, and also im
pede the speedy flow of the water dur
ing freshets. Yreka "Journal."

adjoining land, if any be subject to
entry, or relinquish their existing en

not been made, I have to direct that
you require parties applying for the

additional entries or by relinquishing
their old, for the purpose of making

The kissing "boom is making the most
energetic headway, but it is getting a
a good many ministers into trouble. A
kiss is a very little thing and for its
size about the nicest thing in the world
but even ministers have to be carefnl
what they do with, their stock of kisses
over and above what may be needed at
home. The New York preacher who
kissed the young and good looking la
dies of his parish in a moral way was
sustained by the church: but the New
Jersev preacher whose kissen, as he
said, were merely of a fatherly charac
ter, is looking around for another
church. The public is anxiously await

he suggested: "Mebbe yourself can

The following is from the pen of
B. A. Colonna, an engineer attached
to the U. S. Coast Survey, in the
"Californian" for March:
"Friday, August 1, proved to be the
day I had been waiting for. The wind
had hauled to the northward during
the night, and the smoke had vanished
as if by magic. At sunrise, I turned
my telescope in the direction of Mount
Lola, and there was the heliotrope, one
hundred and sixty miles off, shining
like a star of the first magnitude. I
gave a few flashes from my own and
they were at once answered by flashes
from Lola. Then turning my telescope
in the direction of Mount Helena,
there, too, was a heliotrope, shining as
prettily as the one at Lola. My joy
was very great; for the successful ac
complishment of my mission was now
as.sured. As soon as I had taken a
few mearures, I called Dr. McLean
and Hubbard to let them see the helio
trope at Mount Helena, one hundred
and ninety-two miles off, and the long
est lino ever observed over the world.
In the afternoon the smoke had arisen,
and Helena was shut out; but on the
following morning 1 got it again, and
my mission on Mount Shasta was fin
ished. The French have been trying
for some years to measure, trigonome

issued Feb. 20th by the Postmaster
General to this effect to discontinue

"To the Second Assistant Postmast'

service for the present fiscal year, I di
rect that on and after March 1st prox
imo, service on all Star routes be re
duced to one trip per week, allowing
ono month's extra pay, as provided by
law, on the service dispensed with. T
also direct that the service placed on
the new routes since, and including
July 1, 1879, be discontinued, if
the foregoing reduction is not sufficient
for the purpose indicated. I think the
rapid growth of population and busi
ness in the Territories and new States,
and the restoration and improvement
of the service in Southern State de
mand the existing service, and in many
instances additional service on old and
new service on recently established
routPS. I also believe the public ser.

law requires that I shall not exceed the
appropriation, and I am determined to
conform to the law,
