A determined opposition was developed in the Minnesota Legislature last week to the printing of the Governor's message and other documents in pamphlet form. It is undoubtedly true, as stated by a number of members, that all "who care to read that document have done so in some of the daily or weekly newspapers, all of which have printed it, and there is really no public need of having it printed in pamphlet form. The practice of of printing that and many other public documents in foreign languages is a pernicious one, for it fosters the class of people who have no desire to learn the fiuglish language or assimilate with the American people. It would assist in the Americanization of foreigners to compel them to obtain their information only from documents printed in the language of Hie country. It would be no hardship, but rather a great benefit to them. : m 9 m A dairyman in Floyd county, Ind., having settled it to his own satisfaction that a certain widow whom he was supplying with milk would make him an excellent wife, rang his bell in front of her house, and when she came out with her :pan, addressed her as follows : " I want a wife. I have a good dairy of fifteen good cows. We rise at 3 o'clock in the morning; we have rye coffee for breakfast, with skim-, med milk, but no sugar for seasoning. You need not get up so early, and you may have cream in your coffee. We have bean soup once a week ; we have boiled cabbage once a week, and krout once a week. We occasionally have some bacon. But we dp not use butter, for it is oo expensive, and use lard in its place. We work bard and live saving. I haye told yon all, and would like to marry you." The widow thanked hint, said she pre ferret! her own table, and told him he had better propose to his next customer.

A preacher in Rook county, Kansas, had been for weeks conducting a wonderfully successful revival, Dear brethren and sisters," he said one day, a this is the last meeting I' shall hold. It is impossible to keep up a fervor on corn bread and molassess for myself and an ear of corn a day for ny horse. God bless you." A juggler who hd attained popularity in Berlin by his feat of sword swallowing, recently broke sa blade while it was sheathed in his throat. The throat was opened at the side to permit of the extraction of the part of the sword that was broken off, and the operation was performed successfully ; but inflammation ensued and the man died.

Letter from Old Mexico,

Guymas, Mexico, Jan. l, 1381. This climate abounds in dust and heat ; both wood aqd water are very scarce. At every turn duties and taxation are to be met : 25c. on a letter from here to Hermosillo, 80 miles distant. On a contract $2.50 io revenue stamps ; vegetables from nine miles out pay duty to get into tovn,and thus it is all over Mexico. Harness is dutiable 1 a pound, and $80 is taxed for a wagon. The nation is deeply in debt, and somebody must pay the fiddler. The houses in Guymas seem cold and barren for the want of carpets. The continuous heat, with myriads of moths, crickets and cockroaches, work great damage to carpets and woolen goods. There is a uniform style of furniture for all the wealthy people, Venetian Bent Wood, with cane bottom and backs, cool-looking and tasteful, but I prefer living in some country where tapestry, carpets and hair cloth are not devoured by vermin. The large church in Guymas is of brick and modern iooking,facing the plazn where the youth and beauty meet every evening, to exchange glances and nods, for more than this they may not do, unless aunt, mother or sister accompany them, as they promenade round and round the plaza, or sifc on the wooden hunches furnished for public use. The chief recreation is riding. There are numerous hacks, and at 4 P.m. each day ladies and children in gayest dress, ride up and down, back and forth on the one street. The uncovered heads of the women look very pretty and tasteful, as they expend much time in dressing the hair, though it loki? odd to a new

comer it is at least more economical than her American sister's expensive hat, which is neither useful nor ornamental, in many cases. At n ball, recently, a polite Mexican, while dancing, said to a darkeyed beauty, "with your permission," and gently lifted a centipede from among the laces on the back of her neck. The centipede is very common, and the talk is that the bites and stings of most insects are poisonous. It makes one's life a little uneasy ,if part is but imagination. Peteu Wkhnkr.

Letter from rioritfa. "Waldo, Fla., Jan. 22, 1881. Friend Gabo: Wo left Louisville, Ky. at 2 a. m. tho morning of the lltli and parsed over pome very pretty country. Tho first town of any note was Howling Green, Ky. ; it id a very pretty place. Then Franklin, Ky. and Nashville, Tenn. Thero is soma very Ann country in Tennessee and some very poor; the same U true of Alabama. There. is more ilat.

swampy land in Alabama than in Tennessee. TlVo first town of any note in Alabama that we passed through, was Blount Springs. It is situated between two mountains and is quite a resort for invalids. We staid all night in Montgomery, Alabama ; it is quite a city, and a beautiful place. The Alabama Kiver runs near by but it is a very muddy, sluggish stream. Wo left there on the morning of tho 12th for 3dacon, Georgia, and found but very little pretty country between these places. It is a very flat country, and very swampy. On our way there, we passed through Eutaula, Alabama, a very pretty place, and quite a city. Here the first oranges were offered fur sale, by a number of colored boys. We aVrivod at 31 aeon, Ga. about 1.0 p.m. of the 12th and had to stay there all night, as the train that run from Montgomery to Macon was several hours late. Macon has about 8,000 inhabitants, and is a very pretty city. I noticed in one of the principal streets a monument erected by the ladies of Macon in memory of the Confederate soldiers of that county. It was about thirty feet Hgh, with a soldier on top in full nniform,Vith gun and equipments. We left Macon for Jessup, Ga7 arriving at six r. m., and remaining there until 3 a. m. I did not see anything between Macon and Jessup of note except whore they were making turpentino and rosin. The country is very fiat all along the railroad, and was covered with water. The citizens say that they have had more rain this season than ever before. As I don't expect to locate in that country. I will say

no more about it.

We left Jessup at 8 a. m, and arrived at Bcunswick at 10 a. m. 1" did not get to see tins plaee for the steamer was waiting for us. Our trip from Brunswick, 5a. to Fernandina, Fla., on tho steamer was grand. We were on the briny deep, but in sight of land all the time, and the water was smooth and calm. I wanted to see it rough so that it would make us sick. I have been there before, but I wanted to see some-one seasick again. When we arrived at Fernandina the train was waiting, so I did not get to see anything of that ty, but I expect to stop there two or there days on my return, to hunt shells and look at the coast. I forgot to tell you about tho ducks that we saw on our little voyage on tho steamer. If I were to tell you that we saw millions of ducks I would not exaggerate. Now you need not clear your throat, for it is so, and I can prove it by McKinney and Nichols. I never saw the like of ducks before, nnd never expect to again, unless I see them as I go back. Waldo is the best town this side of Fernandina. There are some eight or ten stores here, and it is quite a business place. I like the country here better than any place that I hnve'socn in the State. The land is higher and more rolling. Of course you can see water here, and some flat lands

too, but you can find these anywhere. Tho J citizens say they have had more rain this;

winter than over before. 1 think since 1 have been here that the weather ha? been delightful, with the thermometer standing every day at ab.mt 75 above zero. I have

not sat by the fire since I have been here, ;

x am now suiing on me porcu writing in you, and it is as pleasant as can be, with a nice breeze all the time. All the Bloomington folks arc doing well here. Mrs. Nichols, Mr. Mif. McPhotridgc and Mr. Dillman are improving fast. Mr. Dillman has improved so fast

since we arrived here, and so has Mr. Mc-

Pbetridge, that they think they will remain. They are well pleased with the climate. Mr. Rufus Peek and Mr. Kogers are living north of Waldo, on good farms. I am going out thero soon. Mr. Peck is considered one of the big farmers of this country. Mrs. Theodora Peck, James Gabbcrt, Tobe Gabbert and Dr. Jeff. Holtzman are located here in AValdo. Mr. James Gab

bert has purchased one hundred and sixty, j

acres of land close to Mr. Peck, and expects to move to it in the Spring. He is well, pleased with the country. Mr. Tho. Peck is railroad agent here, but at present is running the train from this place to the orange groves, about thirty-five miles southwest. Miss Gabbert of liloomington is stopping with her sister, Mrs. Peck. She is so well pleased here that I don't believe she cares anything about coming home. One will soon fail in love with this climate. Dr. Holtzman is doing well and is well pleased with -the place, and has the love and respect of every one here, and especially the gir!s. Jeff, is a favorite with all. Mr. Dillman and wife, McKinney and myself are boarding with a family from Greencastle just moved here two weeks ago. Their name is McMahon, and at one time lived in Bloomington. They are keeping hotel here now and are nice, clever people. I believe they call it the Hoosier House on account of so many llnosiers boarding in it. They have two very nice girls and are good company. It is giveu up to be the best hotel in town now.

This is the hnest place for hunting and

I ever saw. Thero are ducks in

the lakes and manshes by the thousands,

and no end to tho fish. I often think of Maj. Perry, Jerry Howo and James Seward. If they were here what tun they would have. Quails by tho hundred tho largest flocks I ever saw. This is the only day that McKinney and I haven't been nut hunting, except Sunday and we went to church that day. We have fish for breakfast, duck for dinner, and quail for supper. I find my letter is already too long and I have not told you anything f-bout the orange groves. One man, Mr. Harm, was offered' $30,000 for his oranges in the grovft; nnd would not take it. The State Fair commences at Jacksonville next Tuesday, the 25th. McKinney and I will go over Wednesday next. The Progress is a welcome visitor here. Give my love to all inquiring friends and write soon. I remain as ever your friend, Maiit.

ing the bill Mr. Barnutn iit.si.sk'd that nobody in his employ, not even his olephante, should drink whiskey under any circumstance!?. In a little while the elephants, when the effects of the liquor had died away, commenced shivering again, and apparently had another chill. They looked imploringly at the keeper, and attempted to caress him with their trunks, as much as to say, Give us another drink.' The keeper shook his head, and told them positively 'No.' In five minutes every appearance of ague had vanished, and the animals were quietly munching hay, as usual. They had been playing 'possum."

Do man wid a lcetle money seems to believe dat dc man wid lots of it am takin all de comfort. I used to hub dat ideah, but Ize got ober it. It am my solum belief dat dc man who sots befo1 his own fire, wid his wife on do right au his chiPen on de left, an' do ole cat an' a panful o' apples in de middle, am in a posishun to take jist as much comfort as if he lived in a house wid golden stairs. Take de world frew an' you'll fin' dat de humblest homes am de happiest. De man who has steady work, a savin' wife, an' healthy children wouldn't be a bit happier if he was to draw 850,000 in a lottery. If he don't take comfort it's his own fault. It's her own fault if his wife isn't happy. Sometimes' my ole woman gits de blues an' blows aroun' kase she sees odder folks ride out in der kerridges an' dress up in deir satins, but I build up a good fire, git out de apples, cider an1 pop-corn, draw up de big rockin cheer, an' she can't stan it moah dan ten minnits. De blues begin to fly away, an5 she pats de bald spot on my head an' says: ' We has a cabin of our own, plenty to eat, a leetle money in de bank, an' I 'spect we kin sot down an' take as solid comfort as if you war guv'ner an' I had ten silk dresses.' He who makes de most of what he's got am fittin hisself to enjoy better. No situashun but what could be made worse. Ebery dollar made by honest work ought to bring two dollars worf of solid comfort. Wid dese few remarks, called forth by overherrin' Samuel Shin growlin' aroun' bekase he couldn't have mashed taters at every meal, we will now eradicate the usual order of business.

Elephants Playing Possum. " There are some very cunning fellows among our twenty elephants," said Mr. Durand, agent for the combined Barnnm and London shows, yesterday. " The other day Chiei'tan and Mandrie, the top mounters in the pyramids, and the most cunning of the flock, suddenly took a shivering chill at rehearsal.

Lead Poisoning. Lead poisoning is introduced into the human system in a number of ways that would not be really suspected. Such, for instance, is the case when tobacco chewers are poisoned by tinfoil. If it weie actually tin, the circumstance of their masticating it occasionally along with the tobacco would not do them any harm. Hut it is said that tinfoil nowadays is made of lead and only faced wit U tin. It is safe to take some of these metallic poison stories with a grain of salt. Since an inquiry about lead poison found in tho lining of culinary utensils, investigations have been made by chemists at many places and nearly always with varying results. One of them reports that lead was found in the glazing of lined saucepans made at the West, but not in those made at the East, Some chemists have not been able to find a trace of lead in the suspected glazing. Prof. Morton, of Stevens Institute has made a careful analysis, and finds in the entire lining of a large bowl of the "enameled iron'' one milligram of lead. He regards this as a fair average specimen of that sort of ware as sold in cities. If a cook, therefore, were to scrape off the whole lining of a saucepan at every meal, and serve it up as part of the bash, it would take about a month to poison the boarders. Probably a majority of the experts examined some antiquated specimens of American lined Ironware, as it is admitted that when these things were first made in this country powdered glass was used in compounding the enamel, and many kinds of glass contain lead in considerable quantities. Hut of late powdered glass has not been used at all in making the lining.
