"thought, this ia the only essential stimulant to crowtn. Improve thes two powers and a world of delight In natcre and art will be yours that to tnany people lies unrevealed. Minds have been so governed that after seventy and eighty years cf nse they are till as responsive ae a child's to new interests. Blessedly has mental strength teen granted to the great majority who seek tt -m matter almost wholly in onr control, devolve, then. to make this power your own, however situated; nothing except religion and sincere human affection, not always granted on eartb, will brine you greater reward cr truer comfort in lonely hoars. Sickness prevent!? Nay; there was Dr. Clarke, of Boston, dying a terrible death by caoeer, working to tbe last npou bis book of Visions, and finding in it .omething to atill Interest him. Poverty prevents T Nay; to these persons the book of nature lies with open pases waiting their inspection, and to tbvse investigating minds is Riven in fullest measure the rare gift of originality. Pressure of other interests prevents nsl Not so of necessity, for Georra Grota w&ited twontv years before he could find time from his political dntics to writs his history of Greece. The first step on this attractive path is to train crself to observe and keep some record of v-lat yon notice. The pleaaure of meeting a familiar face in a foreign city is great; why should there not b a similar pleaaure in being well acquainted with tt trees we pass so often in tnis really unknown conntryl Let xne suggest that the next time you take a walk yon collect the greatest variety of leaves possible. On your roturn press thorn carefully between newspapers, changing them if the papers are damp. Then, on some rainy day, draw them in a scrap-book, or fasten the leaves in by tiny strips of paper clued across the leaf. Write tbe name of each one carefully under it. with the date and place found. Pat each unknown leaf in joss tbe same aa the othere, until some one tolls yon the name. Then another day notice the eonea on the evergreens. The hemlocks bare smll, pointed conea that bang from the ends ctvach branch; the spruce, rounded cones, only pendant from tbe upper branches; while tbe firs are distinguished by their large erect rones. After awhile yon will find your i rieode aa well as yonrself takinr an innocent pleasure in many thiogs that the world is benv tiled ly in one sense at least, for the old la iop about idle hands applies equally well to idle minds; and the science of botany will begin to assume a cow aspect and cease to be a dry atndy. Or interest yourself 'a butterflies and moths, the first named have always knobbed antenna) which stand out stifily from their heads; they are generally seen In the daytime, sometimes drinking from muddiest wayside pools. Moths appear at sunset or night, and all day lone hide on dry twigs, greatly resembling the leaves in eolor aa they fold their wings together so as to show only the doll under side. They have the powor of folding their antenna) over their backs. Pursue this subject and entomology becomes a pleasant resource. If out-door life interests you, read Emerson's "Trees and Shrubs," Thoreau'a writings, and Christopher North's life, then read a few 11 oes daily of Wordsworth's poems, and ?'oq will discover one of his great charms, his ove for and minute observation of nature. Perhaps, however, you' live in a large city. Learn, then, to enjoy the best musical entertainments, art galleries and theaters to which your very city life gives you access. Your aim must be to cultivate and rnSae your taste in all these pleasures, never allow it to deteriorate. Bead "Henschers Life of Mendelssohn," and ''Charles Anchester," which shonld make one love musie because that dear boy so heartily enjoyed it To appreciate the theater read Coqnelin'a articles in the Century, remembering that be has been one of the leading actors at the Theatre Francais. Those by Wallack, in Scribner's. and if you wish to go deeper, Schlegel'a Dramatis Art; recall how Talma dared, for the first time, about 1730, to dress in a Roman toga in tbe play of "Brutus," and the unconscious compliment paid bin by one of the actresses, who exclaimed, upon seeing him: 'Good God, look at Talma, how ridiculous he is; he has quite the air of an aociect statue," then you will recoenize bis couraee ia taking; that first step and the advance since maJe, as you watch with intelligent enjoyment the perfect accessories of eaeh play Henry Irving now puts upon the stase. Perhaps, however, you . are shut away from all this diversion in - your own room. and kept there by poor health. Now is your time to become acquainted, by means of Diographies, with finer men and women than perhaps yon would ever be fortunate enough to meet iu your ordinary eircie of friends; and who would cot Ilk to have some knowledge of thoae ceople whom we may met in a future life! Bead parts of Lockhart's "Life of Seott," Trevelyan's ''Life of Macaulay." Dr. Marion Simms'a life which is like a romance in interest, and of the wonderful strength and energy disp!ayed by Sister Dora all this will b almost sure to keen your from missinc too bitterly the outside world, which, in many of its sayings and doings, after reading these boots, would seem paltry and uneatistaetory if yon were again in the midst of it, as of old. Do not, howerer, read anything that seems dull or stupid to you: don't feel discouraged if fou do not enjoy the books others recommend to you. Kither your taste lies in quite another direction, or yon are atriTin? to. real Dante or Miitonttnd wondering tuat yon do not enjoy poetry that tbe world acknowledges to be fine, when yon cocld read with delight eome story in verse like the "Idyls cf tbe King" or Matthew Arnold's Tristram and Iseult." Never force yourself to js&d except wnea you fina lack of application If 7nr only JifSculty. Then there is only one ore. a systematic course of study wblcn yon resolve to follow cxactlr. There are untold resources of pleasure awaiting you in the earth, era and sky. and in the quist cf your own libraries, and if in spits of our desire to accomplish much it is only given us to suffer, let us be atnoDtj those made perfect trscjh steering, and so intsltm othaxa wiUi a

desire for a richer, fnller life. Rest assured in their gratitude will be a blesslne. and what they aceomplith will be perhaps whoily owing to your own high aims. Eliza Lzq. The locomotive Engineers. Chicago, Dee. 20.The representatives of the various divisions of the Brotherhood of Lrvromotlte Engineers continued their sesion to-dav. It is eenerally believed that there is u strong and crowing dissatisfaction among tbe Brotherhood engineers on the Western reads where, the classification . system is in votie, and that uoless a ebange is eon made to tne milearo system a big Strike will bo inaugurated. This was the cause of the trouble on the "Q." The classification system prevailed on that road, and the Brotherhood demanded that it be snpplantd by the mileage system. This change the "Q- refused to make, and tbe stride followed. A prominent member of the order, who came out during the deliberations, said to a reportertbat the convention would doubtlees last another day. "The meeting has no special significance, other than that attached to all meeting of the Brotherhood," continuel the member. "It reproescts the Brotherhood . . in tbe United States from the ' Atlantic to the Pacific, and has to do with questions relating to tbe general welfare of the order. The Q' strike will, of course, come op for discussion, as it has been discussed every day since the beginning by the engineers, but it is impossible to say whether any definite aetion will be taken in regard to it, One thing is certain, however, tbe strike will not be declared off without concessions from the company. One thing I wish yon would say. If the strike is not declared off the men will be supported by the Brotherhood until it is. The statement that the brotherhood will shut off fioancial assistance Jan. I is false, absolutely false," After the "Q" strike had been thoroughly discussed anew by the convention, th special grievance committee of nine held a brief session, and then, in a body, visited the general offices of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Company. There the committee was closeted for half an hour with Vice-president Stone and General Manager Ripley, in the latter' office. After the visitors had departed. Mr. Ripley said: "The gentlemen simply came to ask if it wonld be convenient for us to receive them here on Monday and hear what they bave to say. They desire a conference, but were not ready for it to-day, and simply wanted to know if ere would give them a hearioc on Monday." "Did yen grant tbe reqnestr 'Certainly. "We cannot refuse to hear them. That does not indicate, of coarse, that we have any intention of chanting onr position. They did not tell us what they are coming here for, and wa do cot know whether they are going to ask any concessions of us or not." This was all Mr. Ripley had to say on tha subject, but it was more than any member of the couimittee of nine would vouchsafe. A delegate to tne convention, who is net a member of the committee, stated that the committee bid submitted a proposition to the company "the Brotherhood s terms," he called it and were to return Monday for au answer.

The Jackson-M'Aullffe Fight. San Francisco, CaL, Dee, 20. The result of the Jaekson-MeAuliffe fight, last sight, was a great surprise to a large part of the sporting fraternity here, and there Is no doubt that the friends of the Californian lost a larg mount of money, as wonderful Interest had been vken in the contest, and tbe bettinjr had boen very heavy, with large odda in McAulifiVs favor. McAuliE was outfongbt from the start to the finish, and throuehout the whole fight he did cot succeed in giving Jackson a blow which had any telling effect, though he aimed a number of powerful ones at the dosky Australian which would have brought the contest to a -sudden close if they had reached their mark. Jackson was recognized as a good man, but a great majority of the spectators were unaoquainted with the fact that he possessed such a wonderful quickness, as well as scionce and hard hitting powers. Jackson eame out of the contest almost without a scratch, while McAu liflo was badly punished, among hia injuries being a broken nose. President Folds, of the California Athletic- Clnb, received a dispatch from Charlie Mitchell, yesterday, stating Jako Kilrain would fight the wiuner of the JacksonMcAuliffe fight, and that be would wager from 5200 to $3C0 in addition to the club purse. Mitchell states that Kilrain'e challenge ia to the winner, in preference to his partial engagement with John L. Sullivan. After the battle last night Peter Jackson expressed himself as pleased that Kilrain had declared himself, and said that he would accept the challenge. When Kilrain'a challenge became known in the pool-room, during the progress of tbo fight last nieht, bets of two to one were made that be would back down. Boston1, Mass., Dec. 29. Captain Cooke, cf the Police News, to-day. telegraphed the followintr to the California Athletic Clnb: 'Joe Lannsn' challenges Jack6on to fight to a finish under tbe same conditions that governed tbe Jackson-MeAultfTe battle, except that the loser be allowed $500 for expenses. In the event of the California club offering a purse for Lannan r.nd Jackson, the latter will want a fair length of time in which to train." No answer ha as yet been received. New York, Dec. 29. Sullivan's puglliatie backers here, apropos of the McAuliffe-Jackson fight, to-day said that Jaeksou xniebt challenge Sullivan, but that the Boston man would pay no attention to it, as he had long ago declined to meet any colored man in the. rintr, or any man, who stands up with a colored fighter. lie MaJe Silver Dollar. Chicago, Dec. 29. Wro, G. Hards, of this eity. was arrested to-day by Captain Porter, of the United States secret service, charged with counterfeiting, and pl&ced under $5,000 bonds to arnear before a United States commissioner on Wednesday next. Tbe circumstances leadleg to the discovery of the counterfeiting are as follows: Ooe afternoon last Jnty a street-ear eonductor was standing in front of No. 667 North Clark street, tvhin a silver dollar fell at his feet.. lie . picked it op and had it In hia his hand lone enough to discover that it was very hot, as if just taken out of the fire. At that moment a man came hurriedly out of the houso at the above number and snatched the piece of money from him, Tbe man's manner was so excited" that the conductor's suspicions were aroused, and he reported tbe incident to the police. Since that time the house above mentioned has been constantly under the surveillance of detectives. To-day United States Inspector Porter determined lo xaminine the place, when it was found thnt the building is occupied by Wm. G. Hards & Bro., contractors and plasterers. Nothing suspicious was discovered until the upper story was reached, when "William G. Hards was seen through a small window, busily at work in bis shirt sleeves. The afficers were readily admitted, when it was found. that tho room contained a most valuable and complete counterfeiter's plant, including electrical batteries for silvering coin, heavy iron presses for stamping, crucibles, elaborate milling and smoothing machines, and large quantities of metals used In fillies an outfit declared by the detectives to be the most complete tbey had ever aeen. Hard had been counterfeiting silver dollars, and tbe work turned ont was so nearly perfect in appearance, weight and ring that the inspector himself could not detect the difference between the counterfeit and cDQine coin. Seventy counterfeit dollars were found in the room. Hay Brutally Murdered. London-, Dec. 23. The mutiliated body of a boy was found in an out house at Bradford this morning. It was recognized as that of John Gill, eight years of age, who, when last seen ftlive, was sliding on the ice with some companions. The boy haa beon brutally murdered. His legs and arms had been chopped off in a rough manner and tied to his body; his ears had been cut of!, there were two atab wounds in bis chest, and his heart and entrails has been torn out. The romaina. when found., were wrapped in a rough covering. The policy believed, from the clumsy manner in which 1 body was mutilated, that the crimo was 'be work of drunken lads, whose Imaginationa Li A bsen inflamed ly reading accoor.ts of the Wbitecbapol atrocities. lft , i supposed the murder, and butchery .Vera committal in some other place, and there trains, afterward carried by the perpetrators t the' out-house in which they were found. Tr.e crime has created the greatest excitement r.t Bradford. The police have not, as yet, any race of the murderers. A milkman has been, arrested m suspicion of having committed tis crime. Tho murdered boy baa occasionally accompanied him on his rounds. The prisoner was the first to recognize the remains. It.it certain that the body was placed in the 'ut-house between the hours of 4 and 7 this uvralng. Tbe accused milxman, whose n me is Barrett, was taxen before a magistrate,- jnjg afternoon, and ebarged with being the last tersoo who saw the bey alit e. The boy, when ft gesn. was in the prisoner' company, and when be was missed the milkman was asked if b knew anything about his whereabouts. He 'lonied any knowledge of him.

The regrowth of tbe Socialist activities is certain to evoke early action by th Reichstag to settle the Socialist laws. The Austro-Germsn Socialist Congress, which meets to-morrow, will prepare a manifest? to the Socialists of tbe world. A few German delegates will attend. The members are furnished with personal invitations, in order to give the reunion tbe semblance of a private meeting. The questions to be discussed chiefly concern Austrian Socialists, including labor legislation, tho Socialist press, poor relief, workmen's chambers and Socialist education. The session

will contmoo three days. The police have been ordered not to interfere as long as the debates do not touch sedition. Tho dynamite section of the Vienna Socialists will send several delegates. Among the sixty Socialist delegates present at the Belgian Chatelst Congress and afterward arrested on suspicion' of being concerned in tha dynamite explosions during tbe recent mining strikes, were several German exiles, who for some time resided a? Zurich. The Belgian At torney-general, Van Schaeor, who directs the trial of every suspect, is communicating with tbe Berlin government on the subject. TheSocialists assert that police agents are at the root of of the conspiracy. The Swiss government has perfected a system of political police, which is entirely satisfactory to the Berlin authorities. The cantonal police bave been instructed to watch all public and private gatherings held for the purpose of discussing political questions and to report concerning the persons prominent at such gatherings, and foreigners suspected of being dangerous, such persons to be shadowed when moving to another canton or leaving the coontry. A section of the Swiss press condemns the system aa tending to turn the country iuto a Prussian prof inee under the Socialist lair. The Attack on Sir Tt. D. alorler. Coryrieht, 1ES?, by the New York Associated Tress BlRLIN". Dec. 20. The defenders f Sir R. D. Morier, the British embassador at St. Petersburg, assert that a letter exists bearing Marshal Bazine's signature, in which he absolutely denies holding any communication with Jlorier. The Cologne Gazette challenges the production of the letter, and says that eren against the letter it can place a ftatement freely made by ttazaine in the presence of German officers. to the effect that he first heard of the movement of troops through adrices emanatinsr from Morier tt Darmstadt. The paper reviews the question as to tbe source whence Baraine drew his pecuniary snp port while at Madrid. The full publio vindication which Morier appeals for is prevented by tho fact that he was the victim, not the offender, his Darmstadt cipher dispatches sent to the Enclish government being transmitted to the French through a personage in the English court. Completion of the Poughkeepiie Hrldge. rovaiiKirpsir, N. Y., Dee, 29. The first enjrine and ear passed orcr the Poughieepsie bridge to-day. The bridge was coraploted several days sgo, connection with the New or k an Mftssachnxetfs railroad was made this morniof?, and at 3 o'clock in the alterncon the prvfs&ge was made, the train being in charge of John W. Brock, cf Philadelphia, the president of the Manhattan Bridge Building Corapany. The trip was a surprise, no previous announcement having Wen made or invitations given, bat when the train was seen slowly passing up tbe east approach it was greeted by a salute from every part of the city and along the river front on both shores, and multitudes of people gathered to tee it cross. It made the passage safely, running at about fifteen miles an hour, and soon after returned. The bridge will probably Ue delivered to the company on Monday, end a formal opening for business will talce place later, when the railroad connections are completed. JeffcrsonvlUe Criminals Arraigned. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. JwFFJEESONVlLLi, Ind., Dec 29. Joe Paxbn, who murdered Spencfr Bryant on Christmas night, and YA Davis, Greon Booker and Louis Yeazer, the three colored burglars, were arraigned in the citv court this morning for preliminary examination. P&xton was remanded, without baif, to await the action of the rxt grand jury. The three burglars were held in the sum of $200 esch to answer in the Circuit Court. Since the murder of Bryant there La been some fear that the colored people would at tempt to lynch Paxton. When court convened this morning fully M)0 negroes were concregaied in and about the police station, end acrimonious mutterings were heard when Marshal Cole passed through the crowd with 1'axton, on his way from the county jail, but there was no trouble. Why n Whole Town Was Arrested. GRli.Y CenTZR. Neb. 2!). Deputy Sheriif Paxton yesterday returned 'from Walbsch, having in custodj the entire male population of the town, except one. The arrest grew out of a sort of White Cap affair, of which the victim was F. M. Cutler. & resident of the place. Shortly after the death of his' first wife, the servant girl at the house was found to.u! hare been unduly intimate with Cutler. ' Ho v tae f forced to marry her, but immediately afterward began a studied system of abuse to compel her to get a divorce.

Socret experiments with the new explosive proceed successfully, near Thorne. Experts are convinced that the explosive can dettroy forts like the French Forts d'Arrei. on the frontier, within a few hours. The powers of the explosive will revolutionire the whole fortress system, making useless great closed fort-works, and necessitating mor -able defensive works, enclosed in iron-clad bulwarks . Recent fort-work changes in France and Russia inuictae that both nations have obtained knowledge of the explosive. Warsaw dispatches state that the system of Todleben will be completely abandoned, and that orders havo already been issued to stop the works at KowjvI find to form, instead, a triangnlar system, including Kowal, Liteuski and Bi&ljstock, connected by strategic railways. Forfeited Their Charters. IlAKRlSBURO, Fa., Dec 29.

Telegraph Company and the B. & O. Telegraph Compnny of Pennsylvania into court to sho w cause why they should not forfeit their stock, lines and franchises for violating the Constitution of the State by consolidating. The Attorney-general alleges that the Western Union, on Oct.. 5, 1637, purchased the whole of the capital stock of the Baltimore & Ohio for $5,000,000. directly in violation of the Constitution, which forbids the purchase of competing lines, and for this ho asks that the three companies be cited to appear in court and show cause why their stocks, lines and franchises should not be decreed forfeited. The court granted the writ, making it returnable on Jan. 29. A Treniury Rubbery nt Baltimore. Baltimouh, Md.. Dee. 29 Tt has heen discovered that the vault of the United States sub-treasury in the custom-house of this city was robbed of $1.2 13 in standard silver dollars. The discovery was made on April 15 last, but kept secret ia hope that the thief might be surprised and captured.

The thief had opened each of the bags at the bottom, abstracted a number of the coins, and then panned up the rent. Ir. O. W.

An unusually large number of police ano and detectives were set to work almost immediateL after his departure, but up to midrigbt there was ns clew to the whereabouts of man or money. Dakota Tlurnlng; Mountain Chamberlain, D. T., Dec. 29. There Is no doubt that the great phenomenon in Charles Mix eounty is cot caused by turning coal alone. There is a greut volume of steam constantly issuing from the crevice, accompanied by a strong sulphurous odor and a light, colored smoke. The earth fcr manv feet about is warm. It is also phosphorescent, and can be seen at night for many milos. At frequent intervals a deep rumbling sound is heard for a long distance. The phenomenon is situated on that portion of the Randal military reservation which was lately thrown open to settlement. Gladstone's Birthday. LONDON, Dec. 29.

It is reported that the Chancellor vrill inform the Reichstag that aa additional $350. OOO is required. owinr to the expenditures involved in the increased duties of the bead of the empire.

Olsen, of East Sionx Fall3, died from dropsy, and preparations were made to bury the child on Tuesday, bat as the ground was very slippery frcm the recent sleet stcrm, it was postponed until the next day. That night the body showed evidences of returning life. Color would, frequently come into different parts of the body and then entirely disappear. There were also other evidences of life.

Bandle telegraphed that he w-uld shoot for $500 or not at all, to whieh Hei ices replied that he would not put up more than $250, so that the match, which was expected on Ksw Year, will very likely be declared on. A Big Drop In tho Price of Whisky. CiJfC.'NNATT, Dec 29.--There was a sudden and decided increase in tho reported sales of whistty today, coincident with a drop in the basis from $1.14 to $1.03. This is in accordance with the announcement made ten days sgo that the members of the trust would apply a money test to the outsiders who insist upon bein s: a disturbing element without eon. sentiug to join in a common effort to keep the wolf from the door. Of course, whisky at $1.03 affords a very small margin for profit, if any at all, and it is thought the contest will be brief. Th llurninir of I lie Kate Adams. Memphis. Tonn., Dec. 29.

Loyal Women of the Union. .A paraphrase of General Harrison's speech to the Society of the Army of the Cumberland, by W. A Bradshaw, Jamestown, N. V. 'Tis woman that demands our homage now. Turn we from notes and trumpet calls of war, . To listen to the tender voice of those Who, by the qulob hearth and in tho school. With influence as potent as the sun. Prepared a generation of brava men, To walk with fearless steps the furnace through. Seven times heated , of a civil war. We look away with earnest, loving eyes, To the pure source of those impulses high; With glowing eye end swelling breast, the boy Learns the grand story from his mother's lips ' Of scenes in which the stars and stripes were borne. Taose scenes of blood aud victory and joy, And from her holy consecration learns The lesson, not to count his life as dear. Cut, when his country calls, to fly to arms And nobly fight for freedom and the flag. When the first ran at Sumter's walls was fired, . And to its peril and its duty woke The mighty nation, woman s patriot heart Beat from the first in harmony sublime With the maiestio music that arose, ' Tbe music cf the union. Her fair hands Answered the impulse of her heart, and strove With prompt alacrity to render aid To the brave boys who rallied at the call. She wrought the banners that would gaily float Over the marching columns that went forth, ' And iu their silken folds she wove ner faith, Her love, her earnest prayers. When the sword Into her brothers' hand she. tearful, gave. She charged him to be true, and not to stain It's brightness with dishonor nor defeat. Her wincing smile encouraged all the brave. She shamed the timid into manly deeds. With waving banners, the departing troops She cheered with all her heart, hiding the tears That filled her earnest eyes, lest she might make Him weak who needed strength. Into tho field With ministries of love and gentleness. She followed undismayed, refreshing sot Alone the wasted body, but the spirit, too. Beside the cot on which the dying lay. To tbe dimmed eye and wandering mind she seemed To take the lineaments of the loved ones left In the far distant home. The cruel war Which seemed to swallow up the Nation's hopes, Her faith bowed down before, but quicker far Than the strained hopes of men, it lifted up, Aui, with prophetic vision, saw, and sang Of that good time, when triumph should reward The Nation's travail, and the stormy sea Should whelm both horse cud rider. She took up The tasks of men, that all the dwindling ranks Might still be filled. She gave first one, and then Another of her sons, and when the cry Remorseless came noon the shrinking winds From fields of frichttul carnage, for more men, The child of her old ace she yielded up, With faith hike that of Abraham of old. Who led the child of promise to the mount. The mount of sacrifice. Tbe wife gave no The husband of her love, and spent her days In loneliness, and labors not her wont. Oh, if the battle-field its heroes had. Notf less the boms its heroines enshrined. If Liberty her martyrs, tried and true. Counted by thousands in the track of war. She also counted not a few among The broken-hearted women of the land. The soldier's heart and arm were nerved to strength By the fond memory of a mother's love. , He fought as one who fights his eager way Toward Lis happy home. Only in peace, And through the gates of victory, he knew He eould return again unto that home, The scene of all his joys. Like angels bright. Round the rude camp-fires did that memory dwell, Rebuking vice and keeping clean tbe neart. God bless the patriot women of our land! How much of our success our grand success Come from God's favor of her earnest prayers, He, who the tiny springs of influence Blends in tha sweeping river, only knows; Hut that her power was great we gladly own. And share with her tho glory and the joy Our hard-earned victory brought. And now, my friends, May the sweet face of mother, sister, wife Look from tbee sparkling cups to us to night, To purify and chasten all our joys. Recent Improvement. New York Sun.
