A CHAPTER ON HUMAN NATURE
An experience of over forty yeurs
Mtnvlniwl ii u f Vt u f u ftur all Yli T tl
has
:
ture is a rineer thing. Kach one in
each other the special vices or weak-1
aat, ;. ! hl,.,lf Ti.. if
man is a natural prevaricator, lie accuses j
every other person with whom lie couies j
in contact with being a liar; if he
is at heart a thief he thinks every other
man a roblier. So well is this trnth rec
ognized that it has grown into a prov
erb that you must "set a thief to catch a
thief." You can tell in what a man's
weakness consists when he gets mad or
is engaged in heated debate. A cow
ard always accuses his opponent of be
ing cowardly, and if the accuser Is a hyp
ocrite he accuses every other person
with hypocrisy ; if he lack" charity no
one else posses that virtue. now many 1
times have we all seen men strongly un- I
der trie lntlnence of liquor accuse every
sober man they meet with lieing drunk.
How well the Bible understood human
nature when it said, "OUt of the full
ness of the heart the mouth spcaketh.'
A heart filled with hive toward all man
kind sees lieaming from every face he
meets the love and good fellowship he
feels toward all people. If a roan is
looking only for kindness from the world,
as the reflex of his own heart, he gener
ally gets it, for he is not looking for
slights or coldness, and people seeing the
love shining out of his own face give
love in return. After all is said and
done people most generally in this
world get what they are looking for.
Governor Pattison in vetoing the bill
on compulsory education, passed by the
Pennsylvania legislature, takes the
ground that the state has no right to
force an attendance at school where it
may interfere with paternal and individ
ual rights. The advantages of the free
school system are beyond question but
compulsion in educational matters is not
likely to be productive of the best results.
Freedom of action in education when all
possible inducements are presented . will
lead to greater advancement than a law
compelling merely its ontward observ
ance. The law cannot make a child
learn any more thnu a man can make a
horse drink when it is not dry. Create
a thirst for knowledge in the child and
it will then take advantage of the oppor
tunities the law provides. The driving
method of teaching has long since been
abandoned by the leading educators.
Secretary Rusk's "What are your pol
itics?" plan of conducting the signal
service is exciting the attention of the
the volunteer observers, who, while the
bureau was on a scientific basis, have
done it invaluable service. They do the
work for the sake of science and are paid
nothing. One of them writes a, St.
Louis parier that this valuable service
will be demoralized by the Spoils policy,
, but that we do not believe.- Scientific
observers work disinterestedly in the
matter and we do not think the hue and
cry about politics will disturb them. If
Blaine is nominated for president the
observers may have to record a cyclone
but that will be all.
It was some weeks ago reported by a
not always accurate press that ex-President
Hayes was going to pieces ; that
his memory had failed him and he was
intellectually a-wreck. The lie is given
to such statement in despatches which
aay the distinguished Ohioan and ex
president addressed 25,000 people at Be
atrice, Xeb., on the 4th. His theme was
the growth and achievements of the Am
erican republic, its armies and its fu
ture glorious destiny. He spoke over
two hours, closing with a grand perora
tion on the character and enduring lame
of Lincoln.
. It should be the work of a genuine and
noble patriotism to raise the life of the
nation to the level of its best privileges ;
to harmonize its general practice with
its abstract principles; to elevate in
struction into knowledge ; to 'deepen
knowledge into wisdom ; to tender that
knowledge and wisdom complete in
righteousness, and to make the- love of
country complete in the love of man.
Fred Douglas has come home from
' Hayti as an apologist for Hipolyte, who,
lie admits, has killed a large number of
negroes ; but, he adds, stringent meas
ures were' necessary to restore order."
The view that a, necessary way of restor
ing a negro to order is to shoot him and
. leave him lying in the street is somewhat
singular in Frederick and unjustifiable
in anyone.- ,

Editor Chroniclk. We have had
Roiue pleasant showers which have done
much good. . ',. .-.,
The Fourth has passed with all its joys
i and happy anticipations.
We "hear of grand dinners partaken ot
in Mouier, one at the residence, of Mr.
Sellix. The repast was partaken of by
eighteen persons and was pronounced
superb. A gentleman said it was by far
the best, with the greatest variety, that
he had ever eat down to in Oregon. A
picnic was also had in this vicinity which
seems to have been very luscious, for
even the tables groaned beneath the
leautiful fruit, the pies ami cake, and
everything else that .was good, but Oh,
dear ine, the poor.
M. C. was in. The Dalles partaking
largely of sand and dirt, being blown
hither and thither. But it is the Fourth
and we must not conplain. All this
hurricane of dust did not prevent our
hearing and enjoying the beautiful mu-
j sic of the band to which much thanks is
due. .
- Mr: Easterbrook lias left here for his
l home in Rhode island, where ne win
probably spend the remainder of his
!dnys. He taken with him the best
wishes of his friends here.
Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Sherman, of Mitch
ell, made a flying trip to Mosier, calling
on Mr. and Mrs. Koot.
Onr much respected friend, Mrs. Mo
sier, is quite out of health and has been
for some time. We hoje she will recover
soon. M. C.
An alliance orator told the farmers at

Th( Whip lUao.
Indians .frequently, after engaging in
the whip dance, vow that ther will never
more submit to the ordeal, and mutually r
assure each other, that their , , ski us bare
been made to suffer for 'the' last timel"
But an irresistible longing soon seizes
them to again realize the fearful joy of
indulging in ' the "sport," aud the result
is that the dance continues as fashion
able as ever. , The young men of the
tribe then, having put on all the finery
they are able to muster, ami themselves
with the terrible inaqnarri a peculiar
whip from which the dance derives its
name. . This whip is about five feet in
length and is manufactured of .a t .cove
grass fiber native to the district, bonnd
around spirally with a strip of thin cane.
In the hands of a muscular Waran it ix
capable of inflicting a wound very little
less severe than that which would be
produced bv the downward blow of a
knife.
When the dance is about to commence
the performers range themselves opposite
one another, waving their whips in the
air and giving utterance to cries resem
bling the notes of birds. Suddenly one
of them stops, and poising himself on
one leg stretches out the other, remain-
ing perfectly motionless. The other
stops, too. measures the distance care-'
fully with his eye, springs high in the
air to give force to the blow, and, wish!
down com en the havy whip with' a
fearful smack upon - his opponent's out
stretched limb, aud a , red gash marks
where the keen thong has curled round
his calf or ankle.
The recipient of the blow utters never
a sound, but, smiling as cheerfully as
possible under the circumstances, again
takes up the dance until it is the turn of
the other player to stand still and re
ceive his punishment, which, we may
depend upon it, is usually returned with
as good a will as it was given. San
Francisco Examiner.
Sonif Uarp Old Instrument.
Mr. Steinert. of this city, has added
to his rare collection of musical instru
ments a viola de Gambit, which is prob
ably the only one to playable condition
in this country. It is in excellent pres
ervation, and its present owner thinks
that none can be .found in Europe in
such fine condition.
The first instrument has a straight
back and the top is of a conical shape
similar to the bass viol of the present
day, and not rounded as the viol6ncello.
The scroll is an artistic piece of carving
made to represent the griffin of - ancient
mythology and is of brazed wood. Ivory
squares are set in the finger board in
stead of raised brass frets, and accurate
ly designate the fingering places. It is
keyed for five strings, while all bow in
struments of the present age have but
four.
This valuable treasure of Mr. Steinert
was found in a monastery in Berlin, in
'connection with a viola d'Auiore, by a
German citizen. He brought it to this
country about thirty years ago and kept
it until purchased by Mr. Steinert. Al
though there was nothing about it to
show the date of its make, its construc
tion indicates that it was made some
time during the Fifteenth century. New

What Keeps the Bicycler Uprightf
Let us suppose a cyclist mounted on
his wheel and riding, say, toward the
north. He finds himself beginning to
tilt toward his right. . He is now going
not only north with ' the machine, but
east also. - He turns the wheel eastward.
The point of support mutt of necessity
travel in the plane of the wheel. Hence
it at once begins to go eastward, and as
it moves much faster than the rider tilts
it quickly gets nnder him, and the ma
chine is again upright. To one standing
at a distance in front or rear the bot
tom of the wheel will be seen to move to
the riirht and left.
1 conclude, then, that the stability of
the bicycle.is due to turning the wheel
to the right or left, whichever way the
leaning is, and thus keeping the point of
support under the rider, just as a boy
keeps upright on his finger a broom
stick standing on its smallest end.

At the Old Bailey it was customary to
sentence the whole of the prisoners found
guilty at the sessions at one time. It
fell to Baron Graham s lot to perform
this duty, and he accordingly went over
the list with' due solemnity, but omitted
one person brought up for sentence Mr
John. Jones. The judge was on the point
of finishing' the sentences, when the offi
cer reminded his lordship of this omis
sion. Whereupon the judge said grave
ly, "Oh! I am sure I beg John Jones'"
pardon, and then sentenced him to
transportation for life. San Francisco

Will some one kindly point oat where
metaphor and simile leave off and where
slang- begins? There are many expres
sions about which' sometimes cause cul
tured people to turn up their noses or
raise their eyebrows, and yet they are to
be found in tbA Bible, in Shakespeare
and in other excellent places, while there
are about as many expressioaa which
people nse with a great deal of reverence,
thinking that they come from the Bible,
which really are to be found only in such
works as Sterne's "Sentimental Journey
