Gold in tbe sea.
The Australian scientist, Prof. Liver
sklge, has rather conclusively demon
strated that in every ton of sea water
there is from one-half to a full gTain of
Fold. Admitting Liversidc-e g opinions
to be correct, the subject opens up
line of interesting speculation. Thus,
at the same rate, a cubic mile of sea
water would contain between 130 and
200 tons of solid gold. Fixing the value
of gold at $20 an ounce which is some
what less than it is valued at now a ton
of gold Is worth a little short of $50Cv
000. In other words, a cubic mile of sea
water contains gold to the value of be
tween $G5,000,000 and $130,000,000. Now,
if as computed', there is on the surface
of the globe from 300,000,000 to 400,000,
000 cubic miles of the ocean, allowing
half a grain of gold to the ton, the total
nmount of the precious metal in the sea
would be above thirty-five million bil
lion dollars. At one grain per ton. it
would be about seventy million billion
dollars. Pittsburgh Dispatch.

MOTH EMS' FOUL.
"Tis plain to me," said the farmer's wife,
"These boys will make their mark ln life;
They never were marie to handle a hoe,
And at once to college tbey ought to go,
Yes, John and Henry 'tis clear to me,
Great men ln this world are bound to be;
But Tom, he's little above a fool
So John and Henry must go to school."
"Now, really, wife," quoth Farmer Brown,
As he set bis mug of cider down,
"Tom does more work ln a day for me
Than both of his brothers do ln three,
Book learn' will never plant beans or corn,
Nor hoe potatoes, sure as you're born,
Nor mend a rod of broken fence.
For my part, give me common sense "
But his wife the roost was bound to rule,
And so "the boys" were sent to school,
While Tom of course, was left behind,
For bis mother said he bad no mind.
Five years at school the students spent,
Then each one into business went,
John learned to play the flute and fldd'e,
And parted his hair (of course) ln the middle,
Though his brother looked rather higher
than he,
And hung out his shingle, "H. Brown, M. D."
Meanwhile, at home, their brother Tom
Had taken a "notion" into his head,
Though he said not a word, but trlmed his trees,
And hoed his corn, and sowed his peas;
But somehow, either by "nook or crook,"
He managed to read full many a book.
Well, the war broke out, and "Capt. Tom"
To battle a hundred soldiers led;
And when the enemy's flag went down,
Came marching home as "Qen. Brown."
But he went to work on the farm again, -
Planted his corn and sowed his grain,
Repaired the house and broken fence,
And people said he had "common sense."
Now common sense was rather rare,
And tbe state bouse needed a portion there,
So our "family dunce" moved to town,
And people called him "Gov. Brown."
And his brothers, that went to the city school,
Came home to live with "mother's fool."
