A Strange Tradilitiu.
Among the Seminole Indians there
is a singular tradition regarding the
white man's origin and superiority.
They say that when the (heat Spirit
made the earth he also made three men,
all of whom were fair coinplexioned;
ami that after making them, he led
them to the margin of a small lake, and
bade them le;ip in and wash. One
obeyed, and came out purer and fairer
than before; the second hesitated a
moment, during which time the waler,
agitated by t lie first, had become mud
dled, and when he bathed he came up
copper-colored ; the third did not leap
until the water became black with mud.
and he came out with his own color.
Then the (lre.it Spirit laid before them
three packages, and out of pity for his
misfortune in color, gave the black
man lirst choice. He took hold of eacli
of the packages, and having felt the
weight, chose the heaviest; the copper
colored man chose the next heaviest,
leaving the white man the lightest.
When the packages were opened, the
first was found to contain spades, hoes,
and all the implements of labor; the
second enwrapped hunting, fishing and
warlike apparatus; the third gave the
white man pens, inks and paper, ti e
engine of the mind the means of mu
tual, mental improvement, t lie social
link of humanity, the foundation of
the while man's superiority.
The Highest Ambition of a Female's
Mind.
A married gentleman of our ac
quaintance takes pleasure in announce
ing that " the highest ambition of a fe
male mind should Le to cook a -good
dinner." Without agreeing with this
gentleman to the extc nt of such a
sweeping assertion, every sensible
woman will admit that a certain knowl
edge of cookery is iudisnensible to the
maintenance of a happy household and
a contented husband. Old wives will
tell younger ones that tho way to a
man's heart is through his mouth, and
this fact, however painful to romantic
young ladies, becomes more apparent at
each succeeding year of married life.
It is only natural that men should be
come somewhat gross by contact with
tha vulgarity of the world; somewhat
exacting in their demands; a little ill
humored, perhaps, if the salad does not
please them, ami very delightfully con
veisasional if the dinner goes off well.
These objectionable traits must be
taken along with the superior virtues
of honor, manliness and constancy, as
the quartz accompanies the streak of
gold. It is foolish to wish otherwise,
for a man devoid of these faults
would undoubtedly be effeminate, and
would be therefore an uuwortny object
of hero worship.
A young woman during the first
week of her married life entertains
vague suspicians that the above state
ments are true. Her Charles, who is
almost, if not quite, exempt from hu
man failings, has already manifested
a profound admiration for veal pies,
and lias openly expressed his detesta
tion of overdone mutton. She accord
ingly builds up within her a fortress
of resolutions, in which to guard that
sacred treasure of a husband's affec
tion. In her girlhood this young wo
man had spent much time In cultiva
ting her liiu-ieal taste, in reading Emer
son and Carly'e: she had been fond of
pretty landscapes, and could use her
pencil with effect, and she had been
heard to deelare with pride that when
she married she would give up nono of
these things.
Let us visit her now at the end of
ten years of matrimony, and we will
Mud that she has broken her vow and
thrown it to the winds. We find a tire
some sort of person whose wh 'e intel-
lect is absorbed in attending
cares of housekeeping, and in
to the
gelling
stylish dresses for her children
Her
conversation rises seldem above the
level of infant gossips and servants,
and the only ideas developed by time
and experience are expressed in her
conviction that men are the most un
reasonable and selfish of creatures,
and woman the most abused and self
sacrificing.
There is a creat evil somewhere, but
what L it? The husband acknowledges
to himself that he is disappointed in
in the wife he has chosen, and yet he
finds difficulty in pointing out her mis
take, and can hardly hud cause to
blame her, for is she uot a faithful
wife, a devoted rnoUiCr and a most fru-
gal manager. The mistake is a nation
al characteristic. So passionate and
intense n the American mind in pur
suit of its temporary interest, that
men will suffer the chains of business
to bind them down, ynd throttle them
while their wives bend beneach a sim
ilar yoke of duty at home.
"hat is lacking is the power to rise
above the petty annoyances of daily
life; wo need to learn to distinguish
triiles from affairs of moment, to know
that every mole hill is not a mountain.
We need not forsake the upper strata
of sentiment, thought and ideality
the atmosnhere of the soul because
we know that there is a lower one of
routine and small vexations, in which
our feet are tM to tread. To breathe
in the one is to receive strength and
refreshment for exertion in the other.
It is a very good plan to pick up need
les ami pins from the floor, but pick
ing pins ought not to be made the
chief object of existence, for if we
move along with our heads constantly
downward, we most assuredly will see
nothing better than pins and needles
to the end of car days.
Self-culture is the duty of every hu
man being, and lies within the reach of
every human will. A wife does her
husband great wrong who allows her
self to sink into an inferior position
by his side, for a woman's influence is
wide-spread and penetrating, bearing
directly upon t:.e taste and inclinations
of her husband. Xo amount of stock
ings to darn ought to excuse intellect
ual stagnation. Philadelphia Hulle-

A writer to the Omaha Herald, from
Norfolk, propounds as follows:
In the absence of the grasshoppers
and with a reasonable hope that they
will not be lound again lor years, new
life and energy seem to prevail on ev
ery band. We have some fun as we go
alor.g, with croquet, base ball and fish
ing. The fishing grounds are very at
tractive, and to see one yank out a bass
or a nickerel w i-'hing from 3 to Iti
pounds occasions no surprise. Col
Mathewson is the Isaac Walton or us
all, when it comes to lishiug with hon
est bait, but when Charlie gjes tor
them with his spoon hook it equals
Orpheus with his flute-. The hunting
season will be delightful when it comes.
With our present game law it is expect
that many birds will be "found dead."
Their. curiosity will lead them to look
down double-barreled shot guns and
get their heads blown oil by accident.
Speaking of birds makes me think of
dogs, and that makes me think or l)r
Leas, a prince of good fellows, who
nourish in this propinquity. No one
can better mend a body out 01 repair
than he. The Doctor has a wilderness
of the finest bred clogs in the world,
and when our mutual friend Dr. Liv
ingston sees them he will bury his pups
'out of his sight."
That "found dead" is good. How
about the pups. Doctor. Let us know
of the funeral, or shall we bury the
other fellows?
Two -lotlcrn Fables.
The little girl fell with her pitcher,
and cut her arm. Sue ran screaming
into the house, and the neighbors all
poured in. One cried, "Put tincture of
Ainica on the cut, and give her some
inwardly." Another, "No, use Pond's
Extract, instead." A third, "Nothing
like (Jramlmother IJurguinly's All-healing
Salve." A fourth, "Ten pellets of
Eciladonna, alternated with tc-u of
Aconite." And 'so on. In the me. in
time the mother astounded by the mul
tiplicity of advice and the vociferous
clatter, sat still and did nothing. The
blood in the meanwhile naturally coag
ulated, anil the mother bound up the
wound tenderly with with a tcrap of
soft nice old linen. In a few days na
ture did its work in the way that she
always does things when she is let
alone, and the child was well.
Uncle Samuel, one day. after indulg
ing too freely in holiday merits and
drinks, fell sick at the stomach, ami
had such griping pains that he sung
out lustily, and all the national house
hold jumped up astonished, and every
man asked his neighbor, "What is to
pay?"' Indeed the consternation grew
so great that almost every man neglect
ed his business find forgot to pay his
debts. Empirics arose on every li Miid,
and a loudmouthed chap cried out,
"lie has taken too much tariff, and
must be purged a little witli free-trade
salts." Another burly fellow, grimed
all over witii the smoke and dust of
the mine, shouted, "(Jive him some sil
ver pills, the more the better it is the
only specific." Still another was ready
with jus advice, "Away with your
i.onseuse! what he wants is a plaster
of greenbacks all over him, and that'll
do the business for him." A fourth
exclaimed. "True enough, lie does want
a plaster, but it should be made of
three sixty-live bonds a sure specific."
A fifth adviser sprang up, "(Joloid is
the stuff. It looks just as good as gold
and the patient will imagine it is gold
pills he is taking. They will lix him
up in a jiffy." So they went on with
their remedies innumerable, and poor
ITnt le Sam grunted ad groaned awhile,
his fever going down gradually from
2) per cent to 20, 15, 10, .S, (1, 4, and even
down to 1. when his troubles became
wonderfully relieved, ami in a short
time he was at par with hiseif and all
mankind. And he was happy.
Moral of both falh.i; Let political
doctors and public u facials keep hands
off when the business stomach is afflic
ted with indigestion. The trouble will
work ilself off according to the natural
laws of trade and self-interest. Phila.

An L'xpensivo I.irly.
The rebellion of ISOi was wholly the
work of the democratic party. The
secession of the southern states was
planned in the party ar.d executed by
democrats. The 11 nthern sympathisers
with rebellion were all democrats.
Only democrats rejoiced in rebel victo
ries, or refused to hoist American Hags.
Uut for the hope of aid promised by
northern democrats, and the confidence
thus inspired that they would be able
to conquer the government and remod
el it upon a slavery foundation, the
rebels never would have attacked Fort
Sunipter and forced the nation upon
the defence of its life. They probably
never would have attempted to secede
from the Union if they had not been
encouraged by the northern democracy.
The war, therefore, was wholly and
purely of democratic oiigion, inspira
tion and encouragement, sis was its
protection through years of blood ami
wastti and horror. Evny dollar of
cost, every drop of blm !, every mo
ment of wasted industry caused by the
war are justly chargeable to jthe dem
ocratic part, ami it, has never yet
liquidated any portion of the debt. Let
us see what that party has cost tho na
tion. Over 1,500,000 men were enlisted
during the war on the side of the
Union. The country lost their labor
during at least three years of the four.
At $400 a year each this made a nation
al democratic loss of $l,soo.oo0,oo0.
Over 275,000 men were killed or died
of wounds or diseases, and at least o0 ,
000 were more or less permanently dis
abled. The money value of life and
iimb and health cannot be estimated,
but allowing each dead soldier to have
been worth what an immigrant is said
to be, 1,000, this democratic loss would
amount to 5373,000,000. and that of the
disabled in their inability to work to
$000,000,000, aside from the coat .of
their support. The democracy have
thus taken since the close of the war
at least 8500,000,000 a year of produc
tive labor from the north as ttie conse--quenca
of their rebellion.
The national sanitary commission
expended $12,000,000 in money and ma
terial, exclusive of state sanitary out-

This enormous outlay constituted the
national debt at the close of t'ie war,
and has been steadily reduced from
that time to the present under success
ive republican administrations. The
total expense to the government caus
ed by the democratic war, exclusive of
interest and pensions paid iince its
close, was not less than $4,000,000,000.
To this must be added the outlay of
each state for bounties and soldiers
families, for losses by democratic riots,
and by tho obstruction of industry and
growth. This loss is difficult of com
putation, but may be fairly eatiinated
at $000,000,000. The entire cost of tho
democracy to the nation in four years,
from April. 1831, to the close of the
war. including national expense, state
expense, losses by mobs, waste of in
dustry, loss of production by drnths
and disabling injuries, saying nothing
of the annual loss since from these
same causes, but regarding only that
during the four years of actual war,
at least $7,000,000,000.
It follows that the national debt
having been caused by the democratic
war is directly chargeable to that par
ty, livery dollar of taxes levied and
collected from the people since the
war, beyond the necessary ordinary ex
penses of the government, is due to the
same cause. The disturbance of in
dustries, the inflation of the currency
by a necessary and unavoidable over
issue of paper money, the consequent
intlation and the shiinkage of values;
in short, all the financial evils of the
country, are directly traceable to the
same source. We conclude that the
democratic party has cost the country
far loo much already and ought not to
be entrusted with the control of the
government for the purpose of eom
p'.eleing its work of destruction. In

The tJo'.d of the World.
The bulk of gold in the world steadi
ly increases, though the amount is but
roughly approximated. Ten years ago
it was estimated at about $5,!)50,()il0,0o0
in value. It must be greatly larger
now, though we have no fixed date for
approximating the amount. Put it
may be of interest to tee what the bu'k
of the smaller sum ten years ago would
be if il. were all melted and run to
gether. I'u re gold is more than nine
teen times its heavy as water, and a cu
bic foot of water weighs a thousand
ounces avoidupois, and every such
ounce of line gold is worth (according
to our coinage; somewhat more than
eighteen dollars so that the whole cu
bic foot of gold would be worth a lit
tle more than a third of a million dol
lars. A cubic yard of solid gold would
be worth 7 times as much as that, or
over nine million dollars; ajid fiOO cu
bic yards would contain" somewhat
more than the $5,1)50,000,000 of gold in
the world ten years ago. These GOO
cubic yards would be contained within
a room about fifteen fe?t high, twenty
four feet wide ami fort -eight feet long;
say, a good-sized parlor or a store of
moderate size, "ilut," says some one
"gold is so very malleable that even
this small bulk of it would gild over
the whole earth. Put he either over
estimates the malleability of gold, or,
more likely, underestimates the size of
the earth. It takes 1,050,000 leaves of
the thinnest gold foil to make an inch
in thickness, or about 15,"J3:J,000 to
make a foot, or 40,000,000 to a yard. A
cubic yard of gold, then, could be beat
en out so as to cover -b,ooo.000 square
yards, somewhat less than 10,000 acre-,
for there are 4,S40 square yards to the
acre. Then, as there are 010 acres to
the square mile, tho whole COO cubic
vards of '-old could be beaten out so as
to cover about 10,000 square miles;
that is, a tract only 100 miles square
less than the extent of Vermont, and a
little more than a fifth of either New
York or Pennsylvania. Philadelphia
