In the days of the war a New York
junk dealer amassed a fortune by
buying line linen clippings from shirt
makers and selling them to the gov
ernment for the manufacture of treas
ury note paper. He bought at six
cents a pound and sold at seventy
cents. Now his family turn up their
noses at statesmen and college presi
dents who do not put livery on their
servants.
Oshkosh is to be credited with the
latest novelty in osculation. A rather
dashing beauty kissed a pious-looking
citizen as ho stood demurely on a
street corner, and then with a darling
little shriek of "Oh! you are not my
papal" darted away. When the eld
erly gentleman had recovered from
his laughing fit over the luscious mis
take, he found that the artless creat
ure, when she left so abruptly, was
accompanied by his diamond breast
pin. The first institutions resembling tho
pawnshops of to-day were founded in
the thirteenth century by merchants
from Lombard- who settled in Eng
land and France, and afterwards in
the other countries of Europe. These
usurers flourished and grew fat upon
their enormous profits. Noblemen,
and even kings, were compelled to
seek the financial aid of these money
lenders, and it is recited that Edward
III and Richard EE pawned with them
tho crown jewels of England. Lom
bard streot in London, and tho Eue
des Lombards in Paris are memorials
of these ancient pawnbrokers.
Probably the most wonderful tree
in the world is the Baobab bread
tree. It grows only to the height of
forty feet, but is thirty foet in diam
eter. The age of this tree is quite
incalculable. Humboldt considers it
"the oldest living organic monument
of our planet" A good sized room can
be cut in the trunk of tho Baobab,
with comfortable accommodations for
thirty men, and the tree still live and
flourish. The fruit, which is nour
ishing, is about a foot long. The tree
grows very slowly? a specimen at
Kew, England, which is more than
SO years old, having only attained a
hight of one and a half feet The
oldest known Baobabs are estimated
to be over 5,000 years old.
A Mormon Scheme.
A citizen of Salt Lake says tho
Mormons regard the reference to
polygamy in the President's message
as a menace to their political power
and to their theocratic control of tho
territory, that their interests are too
great for them to emigrate and that
they recognize the fact that the peo
ple of the United States wrongly re
garded polygamy as the only legal
objection to Mormonism, whereas
tho fact is polygamy is simply an
ugly feature, the real trouble being
the Mormon priesthood's assumption
of the divine right to rule. That
they recognize the fact that their
whole system is jeopardized if they
retain polygamy; whereas with that
feature abolished they would be like
ly to have an indefinite lease of life
for the Mormon theocracy. The pres
ent legislature, though made up of
monogamous Mormons, is yet thor
oughly a creature of the church., it is
probably therefore that while the
church will keep up a sham show of
opposition it will instruct the legisla
ture to pass a law making polygamy
a crime, ana the territory would thus
be purged of the only wronc known
to the general public. Then it will
apply for admission as a state, with
good prospects of getting in, and
giving polygamists porportionally an
increased power.
Tho San Francisco trustees of the
Lick estate, over which there has
been so much squabbling, have at last
decided to pay over the amounts left
by James Lick for construction of
asylums and.other institutions men
tioned in the will The amounts foot
up $315,000.
"Washikgtox, Dec 12. A joint
meeting of the National and Execut
ive Committees of the Union .League
which was held in this city to-day to
consider and decide upon the policy
of the league overthrowing tho Bour
bons as soon as possible in the South
ern Slates. The subject to which all
the speakers devoted most of their
attention was the necessity of afford
ing protection to the colored people
of the South.
Governor Pierrepont referred with
strong disapprobation to the timidity
or indifference of Congress m passing
over the enormous crimes which have
been committed in tho South against
a free vote. If the colored men there
are to lie protected the white men
must protect them.
Itepresentative Houck said in tne
southern stales where the leaders of
the Bourbon party believe in fraud
and force, there would never be an
other fair election until the north
was convinced that they could not
control the government
O Hara, (colored), of North Caro
lina, expressed the opinion that the
colored people of tho south should
protect themselves and advance their
own interests by working in combi
nation. Boutelle said: 1 believe it is the
imperative duty of the Republican
party to encourage anybody who join
hands with us to break down any at
tempt to prevent a free ballot
A committee was appointed to de
cide upon a lino of policy, and re
ported the following: ""We believe,
to overthrow JJourbonism and mis
rule in the south, it will be necessary
to secure the support of southern
white men, who will act and co-oper
ate with colored voters, and protect
them ui voting and secure a fair
count, we recommend the appoint
ment of a committee of nine, the
president and secretary to be
ex-officio chairman and secre-
tarv to take consideration of
ways and means to be adopted to
overthrow Bourbonism and misnilc,
and, as soon as practicable, to issue
an address to the public, setting forth
emphatically the condition at the
present time, and appeal to the pat
riotism of the South to save itself
from utter misrule and ruin, and for
the North to make a liberal sacrifice
in behalf of the objects in view by
this committee and to act in co-operation
with and subordinate the exec
utive committee of the league, which
is requested to assist the committee
in the advancements of its objects.
Tho report was adopted. The com
mittee will at onco take steps to per
fect a plan for the league.
The Astoria Land Grant.
"While we are of the opinion that
further grants are not needed to de
velop tho country, yet it is not the
wise thing to join in condemning the
past, and become a party to the un
doing of grants that were given in
good faith, and so accepted, brants
that were made and accepted, but by
untoward circumstances were not
completed within the specified time
yet were and are being pushed to
completion as fast as tho circum
stances of the caso will admit, should
be respected and hold good. Jsut
where it is evident that compliance
with the terms of the grant is not in
tended, and no reasonable offort is
being made to comply, prompt action
ought to be takeu by congress to re
store those lands to the public domain ;
such, for instance, as that portion of
the grant to tho Oregon Central
Railroad company situated between
Forest Grove and Astoria. Nothing
is being done to earn those lands, and
from recent correspondence it is clear
that nothing will be done in ihe near
future, if over. Salem Statesman.
General nancock arrived at San
Francisco last "Wednesday evening.
Ho was met at the ferry landing by
Governor Stonemau and different
delegations representing the munici-
palty, also citizens of ban Jj rancisco
and Democratic state central com
mittee, who accompanied him to the
Palace hotel. "When he reached there
he was tendered quite an ovation by
tho immense crowd who had as-
smbled to get a glimpse of the famous
general. On alighting from the car
riage the general was received with
tremendous cheering Then he was
conducted to a reception room, and
from there to his apartments in the
hotel. Tho general acknowledged,
in a few words, the complimentary
reception that had been tendered to
him, and at the same time expressed
fatigue at the long journey.
The executive committee of the
board of directors of the Oregon
Transcontinental have recommended
that the January dividend le passed.
