Nine-tenths of the emigrants from Canada to the United States go to manufacturing towns. Several gold mines, near Charlotte, N. C, have been sold to Northern capitalists, .and will be opened on an extensive scale. The Newfoundland seal fishing was never more prosperous. One vessel came into port with 13,000, and left ten more about to start, each with almost as large a number.

There Is alarming distress in some parts of Nova Scotia, where large numbers ot people are on the brink of starvation. Mr. Leblano, when presenting a petition In the House re garding Irish suffering, said that, according to population, there was more suffering In Nova Scotia than there Is reported from Ireland. Parisian toy dealers are in trouble. There have been several cases of poisoning of children who have played with, and doubtless sucsed, colored toys, and now the Prefect of Police has ordered that all colored toys offered for sale and supposed to contain poisonous matter shall be seized and sent to the municipal labratory for examination. AN Illinois gentleman counts among his choicest treasures, and very rightly too, a quaint old ambrotype of Abraham Lincoln. It shows a gaunt and a k ward man of thirtyseven seated in an old, rush-bottomed chair, and dressed in well-worn dark clothes, with an old-fashioned stock, and his uncombed Lair standing out in all directions. A Bohemian innkeeper was bitten some weeks ago by his own house-dog. Unwilling to kill the animal, he consigned it to the town grave-digger, enjoining that solemn per son to täte care of it nntll further orders. A few days later the Innkeeper was attacked by hydrophobia, and died In excruciating agony. The sanitary officers applied to the grave-digger for the mad dog committed to his custody. Their astonishment may be more readily conceived than described when the sexton calm ly oDserved: "The mad dog? I have eaten him!" "You have eaten tbe mad dog?" "Bet ter that than be should eat me !" rejoined the grave digger. It would appear not only that this mau of strange appetites had swallowed and digested the rabid animal, but that It had agreed with him. If any man blngs "Pinafore" in Richmond, Va., he is liable to be shot on the spot. A few evenings ago, while two young men were visiting a lady on Church Hill, one of them be gan to sing, "Farewell my, own; light of my life, farewell." His friend arose from his seat and went Into an adjoining room, and soon returned with a small rifle In his hands, and remarking, in a jocular manner, "The penalty for singing 'Pinafore' is death to the offenler," raised the weapon to his shoulder and pulled the trlger. The piece exploded with a sharp crack, and the "Pinafore" vocal ist was heard to exclaim, "I am shot!" This caused great consternation in the room. An examination was made, and it was discovered that the young man hid a slight flesh wound in his right leg just above the knee. Hard to beat The California horse, St. Julien, has beaten Karus great trotting record, reducing the time to 2.121, but nothing has been found equal to Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil for rheumatism, sprains, stiff joints or bruises. For sale by J. B. Dill. Diet For the Sick. From a most useful book with the above title, due to Dr. II. II. Kane, we derive a number of useful hints as to the diet of the sick. Some doctors are fortunate enough to combine with their pharmaceutical lore a certain amount of culinary acquaintance. It were ä great pity that they, many of them did not know more of the latter. A doctor may say to his wife, who is all anxiety in regard to the health of her ailing husband, "give the sick man something light and nourishing." Now, what does the ordinary wife know about such things? She could sing for her husband's amusement, possibly dance for him, but as to making him a nourishing broth, or a gruel even, as well ask her to balance herself oh a tight rope. It is not beneath the dignity of the most learned Esculapius to unbend at times, and teach the various methods how food should be prepared for invalids Relative values of food and their digestibility a physician should have by heart, and it is his duty to impart his knowledge when it is necessary. Now, as to methods of preparing food for invalids. Dr. Kane says: "Fried food of any kind shouldjpever be admitted to the sick room. The process renders the food very hard of digestion, as it gives it to us cased in a dark outside of browned material and fat." A leading authority, Dr. Baird, writes about frying, as follows: "This is a method of cooking meat which has no other recemmendation than convenience. It is a rude method, adapted for coarse natures, and disappears before civilization." We wish we thought Dr. Baird was right a3 to its disappearance. Frying, like original sin. is, we are afraid, everlasting, and not to be stamped out. If meat has to be given toan invalid, it must be broiled. Even precaution should be used as to the materials with which the fire is made. Hot coals often smoke and flavor the meat disagreeably. If possible, broil with a wood fire. An excellent method is to take a bit of meat or chicken and wrap it in a buttered piece of paper, and thus place it on the gridiron Baking meat is not. as good a process, though often resorted to The tendency of meat placed in an oven is to evaporate all those strength-giving juices found in the flesh. Boiling meat, if attended to properly, is not a bad method, as the beef retains a large amount of nutriment, the fatty portions being dissolved by the heat. But the trouble about the boiling process is that unless great intelligence is used, the meat is overcooked and the nutritious elements are found more in the broth than in the meat. Then, again, as the appetite has to be somewhat stimulated boiled meals are a trifle insipid and tasteless. Tho process of boiling poultry being shorter than that used in cooking beef, the boiled chicken can be, however, most advantageously used in the sick room. Stewing, when the broth is made rich in extractive matter, when the selection of the material has been judicious, is excellent food for invalids, providing the fats have been taken away. In "Diet for the Sick' the re-

mark in regard to fat3 should be remembered, that as the carbons are heat producers, when the patient haa inclinations to fevers, thoy are prone to give a recurrence of them. Fats digest slowly, and in delicate constitutions may disorder the etomach. If a portion of the battle over ill

ness has been won by the proper selection and dressing of tho fool, if it be slovenly or carelessly served, it often docs more harm

than good. .Nothing is more distasteful than say: HJ.d boy, you have made a teariul mess to hand an ill person a smeary dish or a of it to-day; you have stumbled and faltsloppy cup. The senses aro so dclu-atu that cred; you have blotted the record, you have often an overcharge of food i3 revolting to iust bristles with faults, but you did it all in the sight, and deadens the appetite. It is honesty, in human ignorance and wilfulbetter, then, to make two trips between the ness, and you haven't lied to anybody, and

kitchen and the sick-room than to disgust a patient with an overabundance. Thare is no precaution which should not be taken to make a meal inviting. Have always a clean napkin; change it everv time the food is partaken of. If tho patient is too weak to use a spoon or fork himself, be careful net to cram, and remember that the invalid is not a Strasbourg goose penned up in a cage, and that your sole obiect is to increase the size of his or her liver. It is wise, eminently wise, to humor the patient. Never Ulk much about what you are going to administer in tho way of food. Just as the eyes, nose and cars are stimulated by disease, so does the imagination of the patient become eccentric. Sometimes expectations aro raised too high; at other periods simply to mention food is to pall the appetite. Oftentimes it is better to produce your neatly-covered trav without anv advico of its coming to the patient. V e all of us must know oi pauenis ? .-. .. in our own experience who would ratner starve than say that they were hungry. This is to be forgiven, as it is nothing more than an idiosvnerasv. Firmness is all well enough, i it i I and an intelligent invalid maybe coaxed intQ ofttin- but to bully about food is a mist , rt otten results most unionunaieiv. If. with a laneruid movement of the hand. the poor suftV rer shoald bid you "begone" with all your nicely-prepared food, take it kindly, but try it again at some other time. The great thing is patience, and always patience. The citizens of Colorado insist on the ex terminatio n cf the Indians. It is human nature to hate those whom it ha3 wronged, and hence they would exterminate them all. If you would exterminate a cough, cold, or sore throat, diphtheria or rheumatism, use Dr. Thomas Eclectric Oil. For sale by J. B. Dill. Too Independent Golden Rule. J There have been numerous examples of the truth that a person may bo too independent, even in this glorious land of liberty. It takes a very wie and good man to be a law unto himself in matters that vitally affect the welfare of the mass f his fellow-men. Independence as an inward state the power to live one's own life superior to outward circumstances and beyond the reach of artificial standards or impertinent criticism is something to be desired. There is not half so much of it in American life as is often boastfully claimed. If thero were, we should see more liberty in religion, more personality in politics, and less traditional conformity, less subserviency, less of the pitiful endeavor to keep up appearances. YV e should hnd more people living, dressing, worshiping, recreating, working and spending as they are able to do and would like to do, rather than as other people do. Very few Americans of the better class ever have the good sense and courage to say ""We can't afford it;" and the consequence is, that very necessary phrase is left for the winners and grumblers, and even those who would like to say it upon occasions, prefer to use some aoundabout euphemism. But there is a phase of independence that assests itself in a manner to make another word fit it better say selfishness, conceit or obstinacy. It changes the motto, "Be sure you're right,'' to "Be sure you've struck your own way then go ahead." The tra ditions and- customs of religions tne conventionalities established by society for its wise protection and government the comfort and convenience of friends and the good opinion of the public all go down alike before the tread of that "independence" which is only "Egotism-rampant, with the generosity of a sponge, the sensibilities of a rhinoceros, tho courtesy of a mule, and the ethics of a fox. There are some things that neither men nor nations can afford to be independent of, and among them are a decent respect for the opinions of mankind and a proper regard for others' rights and feelings. Merit Can Walt! A paper on "Architectural Competitions," read at the Institute of British Architects, had for its object to show the harmful effects of competitions on the profession at large, and suggest to tho Institute to "take some practical steps to remedy tho evils acknowledged to exist." In the discussion that followed, Professor Kerr made a few remarks which may, perhaps, be allowed a place in such a summary as the present. Having protested against tho notion that competition favors modest merit, the Professor said: Modest will wait it is immodesty that will not. Merit can wait; it is demerit that can not. The man who, in professional life, is the most fortunate is he who starts without false aidSj without fallacious incentives, without self-conceit, and without hurry. "Waiting patiently, working diligently, and walking uprightly, until he has reached the age of matured usefulness, he then attains that position which matured usefulness alone can permanently hold, because it alone is worthy to hold it. In plain language, at the age of forty (which is recognized as the earliest period at which a man may expect to acquire a position in a profession as distinguished from a trade), he finds himself beginning to know the world well; youth has passed into full manhood, and he has flveand twenty years before him ; during which to employ his energies at their best, and to win respect for a meritorious old age." When you aro in pain you want prompt relief. If the pain is caused by a bruise, corn, rheumatism, burns, sore throat or chest, tho colic, or any other of the injuries or disorders to which Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil is adaptced, and which are more particularly described in the regular advertising Huran of this paper, read advertisement without delay and prevent further trouble. For sale by J. B. Dill. Advice to a Yonng Man. Bnrdette. My son, if you do a mean thing, if you are guilty of a small spiteful action, if you wreak some paltry, shabby vengeance on vour neighbor, if you do anything supremely little and cowardly and hateful, and still bold up your head and want to be respected by the world, just lay this flattering unction to your soul you are the only man deceived; no one is fooled but yourself. If you are mean everybody knows it, the rest of mankind as weil as yourself. Your neighbors may not, it is most likely they will not, tell you of it. They will not express their honest opinions on the subject to your face, but when you lie down at night and blash over your meanness by yourself, in the dark, don't you add foolishness to your wickedners by hugging to yourself the flattering delusion that nobody knows it. They all know it, and they all talk about it. Donft you know every mean thing your neighbors do? Don't they all tell you all the mean things they know about each other? And do you suppose they don't know all your littlenesses, if j'ou have any, just as well? My dear boy, you must know that this shrewd old world is too sharp for any of us, and that you can not fool it. It will hold you at your own estimate of yourself; not your publicly expressed estimate, maybe, but at your own private, honest estimate; the estimate you hold yourself at when you have turned out the light, and crept into bed, and kno that there is just one 'being in all the universe

that is searching your he:irt as closely as and far more honestly and purely than you can. And so, if you want the world to think you really honest and manly and noble, my son, you nave got to be honest and manly and noble. Otherwise, I don't care what it

says it thinks of you. Be honest with yourself, my boy, so that when the day is done, and the blessing of the right falls upon you, you can shako yourself by the hand, and when you go out on the street, no man s accusing glances can make your eyes drop." A Parting Scene. Did you over hear two married women take leave of each other at the gate on a summer evening? This is the way thev do it: "Oood-by!" "Good-by! Come down and see us right soon. les, so I will. You come up right soon. "I will. Good-by." ''Good-by. Don't forget to come soon." "No, I won't. Don't you forget to come up." "I won't. Be sure and bring Sally Jane with vou. next time." I will. I'd have brought her up this time, but she wasn't very well. She wanted to come awiui Dad.' "Did she now? That was too bad. Be sure and bring her, next time.' 'I will; and you be sure and bring the baby." "1 will. I forgot to tell vou that he's cut another tooth.' You don't say! IIow many has he got now?'' "Five. It makes him awful cross." "I guess it does, this not weather. Well, good-by. Don't forget to come down." "No, I won't. Don't you forget to come up. Good by!" And thoy separate. THE SUN FOR 1880. Thi Si n will deal with the events of the year 1880 In its own fusliioo, now pretty well understood by everybody. Krom January 1 until December 31 it will be conducted a a newspaper, written in the Enlish langiiHfie, and printed for the people. As a uewnptijter. The Sun believes in getting all the news of the crld promptly, and presenting it in the most intelligible rl-ape the shape that will enable its readers to keep well abreast of the age with the least unproductive expenditure of the time. The greatest interest to the itivatcst number that is, the law controlling it daily make-up. It now has a circulation very much larger than that of any other American newspaper, mid enjoys an income which it is at all times rrepured to spend liberally for the benefit of its reader, i'eople of all conditions of life and all ways of thinking buy and read Tub Sun; and they all derive satisfaction of some sort from it columns, for they keep on buying and reading it. 'In its comment on men and afUirs, The Sun believes th.U the only guide of policy should be commfln nenn, lnp- I t.r cntiiue American principles and backed by honesty of purpose. For this reason it is, and will continue to be, absolutely independent of part, cla.-s, clique, organization, or interest. It is for all, but of none. It will continue to praise what is good and reprobates what is evil, taking care that its language U tit the point and plain, bevond the possibility of being misunderstood. It U cain fluenced by motives that do not appear on the surface, it has n opinion to sIl, save those 'vhlch may be had by aur purchaser for two cents. It hates in justice and rascality even more than it hates unnecessary words. It abhors frauds, pities fools, and deplores nincompoops of every species. It will continue throughout the year 1880 to chastise the first class, instruct the secoDd, and discountenance the third. All honest convictions, whether sound or mistaken, are its friends. And Thi Sun makes no bones of telling the truth to its friends and abont its friends whenever occasion arises for plain speaking. These are the principles npon which the The Sun will be conducted dariug the year to come. The year 180 will be one in which no patriotic American can afford to close bis eyes to public affairs. It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of the political events which it has in store, or the necessity of resolute yigilauce on the part of every citizen who desires to preserve the Government that the founders gave us. The debates and acts of Congress, the utterances of the press, the exciting contests of the Republican and Democratic parties, now nearly equal in strength thn uphout the country, the varying drift of public sentiment, will all bear directly and effectively npon the twenty .fourth Presidential ejection to be held in November. Four years ago next November the will of the nation, as expressed at the polls, was thwarted by an abomniable conspiracy, the promoters and benef ciaries of which still bold the offices they stole. Will the crime of 1876 be repeated in 1830? The past decade of years opened with a corrupt, extravagant, and insolent Administration intrtnehed at Washington. Tuk Si s did something towards dish.ding the gang and breaking its power. The same men are now intriguing te restore their leader and themselves to places from which they were driven be the indignation of the people. Will they succeed? The coming years will bring the answers to these momentous questions. Thb äUN will be on hand to chronicle the facts as they are developed, and to exhibit them clearly and fearlessly in their relations to expediency and right. Thus, with a habit of philosophical good humor in looking at the miaor affairs of life, and in great things a steadfast purpose to maintain the rights of the people and the principles of the Constitution against all aggressors, Thb Sun is prepared to write a truthful, instructive, and at the same time entertaining history of 1K80.
