The Entrance Into the City of Eng land's Chief Representative in India Cholera, etc. Calcutta, Iwdia, Doc. 20, 1KS6. Editor Jtatkhman : Owing to illnens and thin enervating climate, whern, as Lord Hunting oaid of it years ago, "one wastes, boils, and stews, eight months out of twelve, I have been unable to meet my press engagements. Even my pri vate correspondence has fallen behind, notwithstanding my efforts to the con trary. One requires a constitution of iron to enable him to endure this climate during the aforesaid eight months. AVhileyou at home were enjoying your traditional Thanksgiving turkey and pumpkin pie, amid loving friends and the tender asso ciations of home, we were sighing under tropical skies to realize that the ther mometer stood 9 degrees in the shade. Thanksgiving is essentially an American institution, therefore, only one or two of the few Americans here gave a thought to the day and the pleasant memories sur rounding it. This has been a very un usually long hot season after the rains ceased, about the 20th of October, result ing in a good deal of sickness ; the chol era raged here more fiercely than for some time previous ; the death rate from cholera alone during the month of Oc tober averaged 50 per week. The sec ond week in November it was C7, the third 89, the fourth week 117; the first week in December it was 107 and the second 94. While we have cholera here all the time, it is not generally in an epi demic form, and is confined principally to the native population, though a few Europeans have died from cholera re cently. The only surprise is that more of the jioorer class of natives de not fail victims to this fearful disease, when one sees their mode of living in little ill-ventilated huts huddled near together, and bathing in artificial ponds or tanks and drinking the water, which is in many places, esjiecially in the suburbs, covered with a green slime very obnoxious to sight, and not particularly attractive to one's olfactories. We are now having delightful weather, after the bright morning sunbeams dis pel the grey mist that shrouds everything. True, the mid-day sun is rather tropical if one ventures out witiiout the protec tion of an umbrella or sun topa. Driving over the lovely roads here from 4 p. m. until 6:110 is a delightful pastime, and in dulged in by many thousands of people of this cosmopolitan city, but after the sun has disaiieared behind the horizon a chilly dampness soon fills the air and penetrates to the marrow oi one b bones, if not well protected by warm wraps. The latest sensation here was occasion ed by the arrival of Lord and Lady Duf ferin from their summer sojourn at Simla, in the Himalaya and then visit- inir through India. They were accom panied by their youngest children just out from England, whom theymet at Madras. Long before the hour for their arrival, 5 p. m. on the 14th inst., all the ships were decorated with bunting, and "Jack" in trim holiday attire filled the riinmig. A vast crowd had assembled at Prince ps Ghat (the viceroy's landing place), and the pretty bit of green sward lead in iJ from the Ghat to the landing was filled with people ladies in elegant cos tumes, military men resplendent in gilt lace and cocked hate, oflicers and soldiers in uniform, native nuhlemen in their rich oriental suits, a guard of honor of the Thirty-eighth Bengal Infantry with band and colors were drawn up near the landing stage. A scarlet cloth extended from the landing over the green sward 1 3 where three splendid carriages, each drawn by four magnificent horses, richly caparisoned, with postillions in red and gold uniforms, were waiting. Out side the line the viceroy's body guards were stationed with the mounted volunteers to lorm the escort, while 400 native and 50 Kurojiean policemen lined the route leading to Government House, and a busy time they hail of it keeping the roads clear. When the government steamer Olive came uhreaet the Ghat a signal gnu was tired, the crew manned the yards, and a number of vessels in front responded in like manner, the crews keeping up a lively cheering until the launch Clytic landed his excellency. The scene on the mighty river was a pic ture of animation and beauty, with its gallant row of stalely ships, the lb.e dis play of many colored flags, and the brightly-vested crowds of natives on the shore nil made a scene pleasing to the eye. Sir Kivers Thompson, the lieuten ant governor, received the royal party. They slowly advanced up the scarlet cloth smiling and bowing to all. and giving- a lieartv handshake to those with whom thev were aruuainted. Lady JJuf- feriu wore a brown traveling suit with iKinnet to match. She has a sweet face with lovely dark eyes, is very winning and uracious in tier manner. She is a roy ally pure and noble woman, dearly bet loved by the people of India for her un selfish, untiring devotion in behalf of the women of India, in establishing female medical schools for their benetit. Jjrd Ihitl'eriii was most cordially welcomed. He is genial and pleasant, and has proven hinisWl a man of rare executive and diplomatic ability. They were lol loped by their daughter, Lady llermione JSlackwood, a graceful young ladv, with her mamma's pretty dark eyes and gen tle manner. She was accompanied by hr little sister, 1, aily Victoria, a bright little girl f perhaps K or 10 yeurs of aue, who looked in auiused surprise at the great throng pressing on either side of , the scarlet cloth. She made some naive reinurk, which causnd Lady llerniione to answer with a clear, sweet laugh that rippled across the crimson lips as mer rily as if she were au American girl. They were followed by their brothers, Hon. Terence, liusil, and Frederick lilack wood, the younger carrying his dog in his arms and looking with utinoat sail it foid at the entire show . The party passed up and entered the carriages in waiting and were driven rapidly away, followed by the well mounted body guard in red and gold uniforms with long lances tipped with gay little pennons. Last year, and every year, the same scene is enacted, and "Peck's Had Boy" ecntentiously re marks "its nearly as good as a circus." The Government House is a massive saffron colored quadrangular building, and presents a fine appearance with its "sweeping front and flanks," its British lion crouching over the great gateways, and its great dome from which floats the viceregal nag during the viceroy's stay in Calcutta. Inside the walls of this noble mansion the sense of vastness clings to one almost unconsciously. There are magnificent halls and saloons, and many great windows from which one can look out upon the beautiful scenery and down upon the splendid usters of beautiful trees, and flowery parterres that surround this palatial home of England's chief representative in India, .belvedere, the home oi the lieutenant governor, is situated about three miles from the city near Alipore and the Zoological gardens, and is a most picturesque and attractive building. surrounded by lovely grounds and poses ses a more than passing interest to those wno know that near here nearly opposite the Alipore bridge stand two trees called the "Trees of Destruction," notorious for the duels fought under the shade, here l-ord Warren Hastings and Sir Philip Francis, author of the famous Junius letters, fouirht their celebrated duel. Calcutta is very gay now. Society is on the qui vive and the "shop keepers" are "gathering in" the rupees at a lively rate. The season is opened by Lord DufTarin's levee, followed in a few days by Lady Duflerin's drawing room, then dinners, balls, parties, the aters, teas, etc. etc., until one's head is in a whirl as the season is rushed through, every one bent on making the most of the short cold ( ?) season. O temporal O mores! When spring fairlv opens, those who can return to England, or flit away to the Himalayas, while those less favored exist as best they can or tall by the wayside. Pray do not think the even tenor of my way is materially affected by all this dis play of wealth, glitter, and gaiety this "fashionable folly." Being something of an invalid, I am only too well con tented to be a "looker on in Venice, ' happy if I can only be free from pain, realizing that my mission on this tar for eign shore is to try and recover my im paired lieulth. Long before tou receive this, Christ mas with its merry-making, its loving greetings, and tender exchanges of friend ship's tokens, its sad, Bweet, hallowed memories will have passed away, 1886 will be numbered with the days and vears that are gone never to return. While thoughts of the past and dying year sadden our hearts, the musical chimes of bells in the great cathedral will herald the dawn of a glad isew v ear. May it bring happiness and prosperity to each and all of you is the devout prayer Of MIKPA1I. A STINGY MAN. "Funny thing occurred down at our house Christmas," said the brakeman. "I'm away almost every night in the year, but Christmas night I got a lay-off and staved home with the wife and babes. Next door to us lives the Htiiv giest old codger that ever was. Wheeler is his name, and everybody calls hiro stingy Wheeler, lie is an old chap, who has no children and no friendR, and who is said to be worth a good deal of money I've bad a good deal of sickness in my house this winter, and times have been right hard with us. It was mighty little Christmas we had, 1 can tell you. "'Well there's one thing we can sav, Henry,' said my wife to me, 'and that is that our house is not hard to warm. It beats all the way coal does last us here, That half-ton you got a month ago isn't nearlv all uone vet. "'That's the way coal lasts when there's nolnwlv to steal "it, as we had where we ived lust,' I replied. 'Now there's only one man in this nenglinornoou l a sus pect of stealinu coal, and that's Stintry Wheeler. 1 wouldn't' trust that old codger very far.' " 'Neither would 1. said inv wile. "That night after we got in bed my wife woke ine, saying that she was sure she heard some one in the coal house. " I tjelieve it's old Wheeler,' 1 said. "'So do I,' my wile replied; 'hut be careful, Henry, and don't get into any trouble with the old skinflint,' she added as I hastilv dressed mvself. "Softlv I tiptoed out to the coal house and, sure enough, there was a man there hard at work with a shovel. It was Stingy Wheeler, and he was throwing coal from his bin into mine. Chicago Herald. A liOKX DETECTIVE. A good story is told at the exfene of a well known private detective of this city. When he first started in his busi ness he was very proud of his work and told some marvelous tales of his success as a Vidoeq, and w as constantly planning ways to get the lawbreakers into his grasp. One evening his father came home rather late and to his surprise and aulaanient found all the doors and windows open. He rushed inside ex pecting to find the place ransacked. Nothing, however, had been disturbed, and he found his son sitting in the par lor quietly smoking. "Harry," gasped the old gentleman,' "do you know that all the doors and w indows are open "Ob, ves; I opened them." "But don't vou know that thieves might get in?" "That's just what I want. 1 am laying a trap for them," replied the diseiple of idoco. 1 tie old gentleman tell upon his son's shoulder and wept in a tender recognition of hi genius.

It is He not surprising that they were soft. was built that way on general principles. "Of course, Henry, with all my heart." "Then fly with me to-night. Let us leave this house at once and seek some blessed spot where we two will have a well defined monoKly on all eartVs joys and sorrows. Hasten, do not lose a mo ment." As he delivered this impassioned siieech her face grew bright with an in tense light ofjoy. Then a thought seems to strike hex. She had them often. Her smile was o'erclouded with a look of deepest pain. "iNo, no, she sobbed, "l cannot ny with you. I cannot, I cannot." "Dearest." he murmured, "that is three times you said you cannot, I only want you to fly once. Why cannot you?" "l-i-l," sue stammerea incoiiereniiy. "The I's have it," said he resignedly. Yet I fail to i;-jtierstand your suddenly conceived prejudics against flying. I thought that you were partial to that mode of matrimony. However, no ny u you say so." "Forgive me. I would leave wealth, parents, friends, for your sake, but se curely locked in yonder room is a treas ure from which l could never part, i know not whether it is a device of my father's to stay my flight, but I cannot leave without mv treasure." A dark look of suspicion mantled his face, and in three strides he had crossed the room and burst open the' door of the mysterious chamber. "Now," said he, "secure your treas ure."! She entered, and when she came out with a tan-colored, pop-eyed, snub-nosed Chinese god of a pug dog, Henry picked up his hat and went out and new all by himself. THE PASSIONS AND THB HEALTH The so-called passion of love rather sustains than depresses physical power, unless it lapses into grief and anxiety. Ambition in its purity of purpose is harmless to the physical life and en nobling in its moral enects.except when it is accompanied bv pride. Avarice, the meanest and smallest oi the passions, tends rather to preserve than to damage physical health. The passions that act most seriously on life are aneer. fear, hatred and grief. No man can get angry often. The evil results fall directly on the heart and brain. When a man is red with rage we know that there is a partial paralysis of the small blood vessels of the face and head. and. of course, of the brain. When he is white with aneer we know that there is a temporary suspension of the heart s action t-uch a passion lreiiuentiy indulged, then, is bound to bring a fatal result. Intense hatred acts much like anger in the effect it produces. The effects of fear, like those of anger, felt most on the heart and brain. Phil adelphia News. CHAFF. Going down hill The toboggan.

"Go down by the saw mill to the little cabin on Water street, next the lumber yard, and you will get an item," said a gentleman to a Statkhmak representative Friday afternoon. Of course, such a thing as an item j was just in that pencil shover'a line, and he hastened to the scene mentioned. The house (if one can apply so lofty an appel lation to a little mix-up of old lumber, nails, air cracks, two doors, and two rooms), is near the river bank, and a broken walk with numerous nlanks crone therefrom leads from the mu ddy street to the door. A dark, swarthy woman, tall, and one whe appeared to have known hardship, answered the reporter's knock, and led him into the little dingy room where three small boxes served for chairs, and a lot of camp kettles, etc., completed the stock of furniture. In one corner on a dirty straw pallet, lay a man, with rather prepossessing features, who said, in answer to an inquiry, "Yes, I am J. Davis, 'Davis the trapper.' " I have a pretty bad foot, and I guess I won't trap any more, for a few days, any iy." He stated that about 10 o'clock yester day morning, he had been oiling his pis tol, a 44-calibre Smith & Wesson, which had become slightly rusty from disuse. and had raised the hammer to full cock, while oiling the cartridge chamber, and bad forgotten to return the hammer to the safety notch. He then started from his seat, and thoughtlessly allowed his finger to rest on the trigger. The next thing of which he was conscious, was a sense of pain, and of his wife, who had been dozing on the pallet, calling for help. He then picked himself up from, the floor, and removed his shoe, from which a battered bullet fell to the floor. The ball had grazed the calf of his leg, and had passed through his foot just at the root of the toes, mangling the bones and flesh very badly. A physician was called in, and the wound dressed, and Davis made as comfortable as possible. Davis is well known throughout west ern Oregon as a trapper, and came here but two or three days ago from Cres well. It will be remembered that the States man of Wednesday had an account of his actions on his arrival at Harrisburg, where he drew a pistol and threatened to kill his wife. He has been drinking heavily of late, but claims to have been sober when the accident occurred. He says he is going to Alaska when he gets well, on a trapping expedition. PROSPECTIVE APPOINTMENTS. Speculation as to the Appointees on the RailioartCommiKsioii and to the new Circuit Judgeship. It is understood that Gov. Pennoyer is at present considering the claims and merits of the applicants for the different offices which it is his province to fill. The new law in regard to the railroad commission has it that the two commis sioners shall be of different political com plexion. There is little doubt that the choice of the governor for the democratic merolxjr will fall on R. F. Gibbons, of The Dalles, late democratic candidate for secretary of state. Mr. Gibbons's claims are conceded by all, and there will be no objection to his appointment. Among the republicans mentioned in connection with the appointment are S. S. Train, of the Albanv herald, John Kelly of Spring- field, Lane county, and Mr. Washburn of Junction Citv. Just which one of these gentlemen has the best chance is uncer tain : but each of them is well known in his particular locality, and comes strong ly recommended. A strong light is being made for the appointment of judge of the Sixth judt cial district. Krone pressure has been brought to bear upon the governor for the appointment of J. II. Slater, ex- I uited Mates Benator. Mr. Slater is rec ommended by every member of the Pen' dleton bar, with the exception of A. J Iawrence, who is himself an applicant for the position, and Lawrence s partner. The recommendation is also accompanied by a protest against the appointment of Lawrence, htrange to say, Mr. Mater has not the recommendation of the at torneys of his own county. Baker City has a name to present tor the jKWition Thomas Fitzgerald, an attorney of that place. A few days ago a number of law vers of Baker and Vnion counties tele' graphed to the governor, strongly recom mending the appointment of Judge W M. Ramsey, of this city. A rumor that he had been appointed to the iKsition gained some currency on the streets, yes terday, but it was evidently without foundation. It is hardly probable that Judge Ramsey will be appointed, unless such appointment would be considered by the governor as the beat means oi set tling the contentions ot the eastern (Or egon attorneys over the matter. There is no doubt, however, that the appoint ment ot Judge Kamsey would rettee great credit upon the administration. There are many names mentioned connection with the sujierintendeney of the asylum. Although there is much doubt and uncertainty as to what will be done in regard to the removal of Dr. Jo- sephi, that has not prevented the various candidates from urging their claims, jut .is if the field was open. Among those who have been sixikeu 01 as either appli cants for the position or not averse to the appointment are Dr. llarry Lane, ot Portland, Dr. J. L. Hill, of Albanv, Dr. A. I. Nicklin, of Portland, Or. W. V. Kinehart, of Canyon City, ir. F, A. Bay ley, oi Hillsboro, and several others. It is certain that no action will lw taken in the premises just at present, and in deed it is an open question whether or not anything at all will be done. The health officer at Astoria is yet to lie appointed. The friends of Dr. Alfred Kinney, formerly of this city, but now of Astoria, and Dr. W. I). Baker, of Astoria, are pushing the claims of their respective candidates. .I.L.Norton Carroll, residiug at Ear Rocka way, Queens Co., N.

Riley Cox, of silverton, Found Drowned In Little Pudding: River. Three weeks ago Friday lliley Cox, son of John T. Cox, who lives near Sil verton, left home to visit some friends near S wartz's mill, about five miles north east of Salem, on the Salem and Silver ton road. Young Cox was aged about years. He was soon missed . from home, but he bad relatives in Linn coun ty, and it was supposed that he had gone there. Finally his people became alarm ed about his prolonged stay, and inquiry and search were instituted, it was found that he had not been in Linn county, and his brothers went to Swartz's mill and hunted about there for him. On riday they succeeded in finding the body of the missing boy in the mill pond above the bridge that crosses the Little Pudding river at that place. He. had fallen through the ice three weeks before and had lain there, entirely under water, and most of tne time under the ice, ever since. The body was taken home Friday evening ; and it was understood that au inquest was to be held yesterday. How ever it was thought unnecessary to hold an inquest, and none was held.' On the day that the drowned boy fell through the ice he was skating with Jimmy Carter, a young fellow working at the mill, and Carter reports that when he left young Cox he had started home. Carter claims that he did not see Cox fall through the ice. When the body was found it was slightly decomposed, but in a comparatively good state of preservation, on account of the recent cold weather. ADVICE TO MOTHERS.

Constitutional Catarrh. No single disease has entailed more suffering er hastened the breaking np of the constitution than Catarrh. The rense of smell, of taste, of sight, of hearing, the human voice, the mind one or more, and sometimes all, yield to its de struetive influence. The poison it distributes throughout the system attacks every vital force, aid breaks up the most robust of eonitltntlons.
