gaUll democrat. IX'FIOl'S FAST. Tlio oslrii li is tlie swiftest runner known The estimated wealth of the United States, that is, the value of all lands, build' inijs, railways, etc. U put as 104,000,000, 000. The amount of money of all kinds i estimated by the secretary of the treasury to be 82.108,130,092. Koliert Dedsley, famous as a bonkseller and author of much ingenious writing, was a man almost entirely devoid of education He was a natural writer, developing into an author of no little renown, from the very small beginning of a livery servant. Medical practitioners In London, in pro portion to the population, aro as one to each ihousnnd persons. The average clientele of a practitioner in that city is, therefore, at least twice the size of his Ne York brother. The nnmber of dispen ary patients in London is smaller in cotnpari- son with tliw population thin it is in New York. A railroad with a gauge of but 21 inches is now building in North Carolina, It is to run from Hot Springs, near tho Tenn essee border, to Laurol rivor, a distance of 24 miles. Its courso is through a very mountainous country, touching also a very line farming country. Tho main purpose of its construction is to get out the timber on about 70,000 acres of land. A type of iuCm' engine is being built for the little road. A'.'.lption is universal in Japan, where it is practiced to keen a family name from becoming extinct. Indeed, ihere is scarcely a family in which it has not nt some time or other been prasticcd. A person who has no male issue adopts a son, and if he has a daughter, often gives licr to him in mar riage. A youth, or even a child, who may bo the head of the family, often adopts, on tho point of dying, a son, sometimes older than himself, to succeed him. Charles Dickens was extremely fond of amateur theatricals, A recently discovered letter of his contains the following lines, which aro most characteristic of the author of l'ickwick: "I am terribly out of spirits this morning, owing to tho great difficulty I nnd tho stage carpenter experience in making moonlight, which is a much more troublesonio tusk than wo anticipated.'' There is something very ludicious in tho idea of employing a carpenter to make moonlight. The mora tho last debt statement is studied in tho light of the demands upon the treasury for the noxt two months, the more determined the conviction becomes that something must bo dono very speedily to increase the revenues. The present ad ministration, by holding up appropriations and encroaching dangerously upon the coin reserves, will doubtless be able to tide over the t.vu uiuiiUis ut existence that remain to it. but after that tho truth will appear und a means must be found of repairing the deficit. If the republican senate will permit, something may bo done ut this session to stop the gap. Tho most likely revenuo measure to pass is that raising the whiskey tax to SI -3 a gallon. It would addnbout 8X,000,000 a year to the revenues without hurting nny industry or adding a cent to the cost of nny necessary of life. As tlii'ro is no opposition made to it by tho manufacturers of whiskey, it seems not unlikely that the bill may be passed. The death of Thomas JctTcrson and John Adumi formed a remarkable coincidence They died on the Fourth of July, I82C, al most at the samo hour.They wero both members of the :omniitteo that framed the declaration of independence; both signed it; both had been American ministers nt Kuropean courts; both had been vice presi dents nnd presidents of tho United Status, nnd both had lived to a groat ago. Adams died at Qtiincy at the Age of almost 91 years; Jefferson died at Montieello, Ya, at Iho age of almost $1 vears. They died exactly .r0 years (almott to an hour) after they had cist their votes for the declaration of inde pendence. The removal of the seat of government to Washington was etTected in the summer of 1S00. It seemed like transferring it to a wilderness. Oaly the north wing of the cipitol wustinished, und that was Pitted up U accomodate both houses of congress Tho president's house was finished externally, but much had to bo done on the inside. There was only ono good tavern, and that was insutlicient to accommodate half tl e congressmen. Thero was only a path through the alder swantpalong the line of rennsvlvnnia avenue from tiie president's house to the capitol.

SMITH & CO., Proyriftgr, NEW YORK 1181! 1JUIDEK. Hon M A Miller hat introduced a bill for tlic construction of a fith ladder at the 'all at Oregon City. The conitruction of a lad' der that will accomplish the purposes had in view, that of supplying the Willamet'e am Its tributaries uithan abundance of s.dmon would be an Immense benr fi to t'te p;op of the Willamette Wiley, and In fa t to all weittrn Oregon, a he lni appropia'es $6oo. The bill provides that the fish way shall be bnilt In the bed of the rivcr on the west side of the main fal', by making excava tions in the solid rock. It constitutes the Governor, Secretary of state and S'ate treasurer, aboard who shall prepare plant, control the construction uni employ a su perintendent o do the work. We hope to gee this bill pas. BooJIe legislation Is c'-iming into disrepute all over tii woild anl if thec"ise wh ehgnve It the fii'St impulse coal I be buried to deep that Gabriel's trumpet would never wake it from its bl timbers t,ie nations of the earth would bs doubly blessed- A casual glance at the Innumerable evils of the day often carries the Impression that more wickedness prevails in this generation than ever before' but a careful survey of both the past and present will modify ihli impress on. The present age compares favorably with any ago of the world, and the moral forces now at work are more active than ever. The facts that evils are being ferreted out nod exposed in all their hi leomness miy make us feel torry for human frailties; bat the other fact, that the general miral sense of the people will not permit the wrong to stalk abroad unmolested, shows that the g'od Is gaining predominance. We have had some email boodle escapades, salary grab schemes, and municipal jobs to record the past few years but nothing lately In this country, of such magnitude as the Credit Mobilier scheme, or, the Panama scandls now agitating the French cavaHera. We are stilt susceptible of improvement but, after all, are not so bad as we are sometimes pictured.

Great mcnt.il agony is"endured by parents who see their children suffering from diseases caused by impure blood, and for which there seems no cure. This is turned to joy when Hood's Sarsaparilla is resorted to, for it expels the foul humors fiom the blood, and restores the dis eased skin to fresh, healthy brightness. Read the following fron- grateful parents : " To C. I. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.s "Wo think Hood's Sarsaparilla Is tho most valuable medicine on the market for Mood and nkIii dtiexst's. Our two childreu suffered terri bly n llli the Worst Form of Eczema for two years.
