Now that the late conservative ad ministration is no more than a shat tered remnant, the organs of the con servative press are nothing backward in vituperating one another, and the defunct ministry is so malignant in tone as to clearly betray that there was no intention whatever of surren dering the reins of government had not the queen recent herself deliber ately induced and insisted on the crisis. In consequence ot this the fallen magnates of that administration, which has been one of continuous brawl and national scandal for so many weary months, are being so bitterly assailed in the columns of their own newspapers thai, their tempers are said to have suffered in the glorious melee, and more than one has to part from public life and even from Madrid, with scowls upon his brow and anathemas upon hislipii. which baa caused no lit tle merriment to the unconcerned on lookers. lohn Griffin, of ZantsvilIe,0.,savs: "I never lived a day for thirty years without surrenng agony, until a box oi JJe vv itt s Witch Hazel Salve cured m y piles.'

The winter snows have begun to fall on the pass, and there are yet hundreds of men scattered along the trail be tween Sheep camp and the lake. As is well known, traveling over the pass in one of those snow storms, which frequently lasts one or two weeks, is impossible, and when this fact is con sidered, it is easy to imagine the awful condition which confronts the told- seekers. There are grave fears that many will perish on the fail before they can reach Lake Lindemann.

THOREAU'S COMPANIONS. Blade Friends In the Forest with th Life Around Ulm. The mice which haunted my house tvere not the common ones which are said to have been introduced into the country, but a wild native kind not found in the village. I sent one to a distinguished naturalist, and it inter ested him very much. When I was building, one of these had its nest un derneath the house, and before I had laid the second floor and swept out the shavings would come out regularly at lunch time and pick up the crumbs at my feet It probably had never een a man before; mid it soon become quite familiar and would run over my slioe and up my clothes.- It could readily ascend the sides of the room- by short impulses, like a squirrel, which it re sembled in its motions. At length, as I leaned, with my elbow en the bench ono day, it run up my clothes, and along my sleeve, and round and around the paxrr which held my dinner, while I kept the latter close and dodged and played at bo-peep. with- it; and when at last I held still a piece of cheese between my tl umboml finger, it came and nibbled it, sitting in my hand, and afterward cleaned its face and paws like a fly, and walked away A phoebe soon built in ray ehed, and a robin for protection in a pine which grew against the house. In June the partridge, which is eo shy a bird, lei her brood past my windows from the woods in the rear to the front of my house, eluuking and calling to them like a hen, and in all her behavior prov ing herself the hen of the woods. The young suddenly disperse on your ap proach at a signal from the mother, as If a whirlwind has swept fhem away, and they so exactly resemble the dried leaves and twigs that mnny a traveler lias placed his foot in the midst of a brood and heard the whir of the old bird as she flew off, and her anxious col In and mewing, or seen her trail her wings to attract his attention, without sus pecting their neighborhood. The parent will sometimes roll and spin round be fore you in such a dishabille that you cannot for a few moments detect what 1 Kino oi a creature it in. The young squat still and flat, of tea running their heads under a leaf and mind only their mother's directions given from a distance, nor will your approch pirtke them run again and betray them selves, I have held them in my open hand, and still their only care, obedient to their mother and their Instinct, was to squat there without fear or trem bling. So perfect Is this instinct that once, when I laid them on the leaves again, and one accidentally fell on its ride, it was found with the rest in ex actly the same position ten minute nfterward. The remarkable adult, yet. innocent, expression of their open and serene eyes la very memorable. All in telligence seems reflected in them. They suggest not merely the purity of in fancy, but a wisdom clarified by ex perience. Such an eye was not born when the bird was, but ii coeval with the sky It reflects.

"The place of a watchdog on UaCfarnt or country plait," said State's Attorn?y : McOuire the other day, in making some ' observations about uwd dogs, report? the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, "might be very well taken by peacocks and ., j guinea fowls. I long since udopted pea cocks alone to guard my plac, and nothing can come around the premises night or day without causing an alarm from them. They are more wutchfu! - than any dog I ever owned. My experi ence with guineas has not been, so ex- . tensive, but I believe they ore also sure to give an alarm, or rather a good " many alarms, if any strange man or beast should venture near them by night or day. 1'erhaps the days oi t he watchdog would be numbered if it were ',' generally known how well peacocks and guinea fowls would take his place, v v Then, wrtainly, with fewer dogs there would not be so many cases of hydro- . phobia," The statement of Mr. McGulre as to , , the watchfulness of peacocks was borne ; out by numerous Howard county farm ers, among the (number being County Commissioners IIs,Dorsey and Smith, " and Mr. James L. liobbs, who superin- ' tends the farming operations of Sen ator Gorman. Mr. Hobbs stated that he long ago discovered what excellent pro tection peacocks afford about a place, and down on the senator's farm he ai- ways keeps six or eight of them to guard the premises. So it appears that peacocks are useful as well oa orna mental. " ' ' Geology. The scientific beginnings of geology are said to have been treated of in Chinese works long before the Chris tian era.
