NOTES.
S -The largest and earliest ice crop ever known
has now been gathered.
.-Fifty vessels were built on the Pacific coast
last year at a total cost of $1,021,100.
--Factions of the Lutheran Church, in Chill;
esthe, had a hand-to-hand tight in a prayer meet
S-The year 1870 will be memorable as ihe most
remarkable in the history of the sugar trade.
Good refining Cuba declined to 7, cents, the
lowest figure since 1818, and rose afterward to
the highest price attained in many years.
-The Arab foot is proverb:al for its high arch;
"s stream can run under the hollow of it." The
Sa eot of the Scotch is large and thick ; that of 'he
S Irish fat and square; the Englih short and
dfeshy, but uudonutedly well-shaped and propor
tioned.
-Thousands of wolves are killed every winter
Ia the great basin of the Yellowstone, there being
a ready cash market for the robes at all the fron
tier trading ps te. Many "wolfere" realize 8308
a month during the "wplfing" season.
-The New Jersey State Board of Directors of
the Anolent Order of Hibernians have passed
resolutions repudiating any affiliation with the
" Mollie Msgutres," and requesting the national
beak of the order to inetitute a rigid examina
iohn lino the alleged connection between the
*"Mollies" and the Ancient Order.
-The grand jury of Anderson county, South
Carolina, has made a presentment against ex
Gov. D. H. Chamberlain for slandering the good
S amrfe t f the county ina ante-election rrolamsa
Stton declaring-and, as the grand jury declares
S eotrary to the facts that a state of lawlessness
existed within that county, which called for the
Intervention of the armed power of the United
States.
.-.."Hell and Damnation" is the title of a work
est issued by the Rev. Mr. Humphrey, who is
pastor of a Presbyterian church near Pittsburg,
1a . Be says he uses that title because it is ex
sel? what the book is about, and because a
'aswklah sentimentality prevails on the subject,
bWlih ought to bi put down. The whole of this
r e :teery large book is a plea for the fervent
peashing of the doctrine that there is a hell,
:' $liot souls go there, and that the smoke of
seir torment ascendeth up forever.
-When the campaign of 1870 opened, France
had 1.5 fortresses. A French General has writ.
ten quite an essay against them. He regards
them as mere victualing points, which sometimes
erve as slight obstacles against an invasion, but
are of no account without a strong army in their
sear. Strongholds in a State should be few in
sider to be good, and should be commanded by
s.rpag-willed men. An old ttalian proverb says :
*When a country is in its decadence, mor ks and
*'t. abound."
-~..omebody once said to Johann Strauss that
tbe"Danube Bleu" was a puzzhog title; why
Mbil color? "I know as well as you." replied
Sitrla, "that the Danube is ordinarily green,
and sometimes yellow, but never blue; ± could
'ot however, have called my waits the Green
])alabe or the Yellow Danube, as no one would
a'.t taken to the title, while the 'Danube Blea'
r.s arlight tinge of poetry which pleases, and
atbiuthe scocess cf the piece has been great.
'That inviting and inspiriting music hardly re
gared a striking title to be successful.
-The red fish of Wallows Lake, Cplifolnis, are
desribed as being blood red in color, very fat,
and weighing about eight pounds, and are pre
Satred, when taken; to sa'mon. It is said there
it only four lakes known in which this fish is
mad-sl-Payette in Idaho, a lake in Maine, one in
.$ ot4and, and Wallows Lake. A company en
in commercial fishing on the latter fre
r bring in a ton of red fish at a haul with
. ,.aof medium length. Lake Wallows is two
' aa feet deep, and the fish suddenly appear
"s. th .. r hee in August and disappear in De
.- ' a. well-nigh aninhabited territory, Ari
lcoa manaMges to get up a good deal of sectional
Ja.leasy. While the Governor has secured
.athmrity from the Legislature to organize a
..'eeooting party to hunt for Indians in the South
.aerm section of the Territory, the Abiner, published
.i.j the central section, sneers at the movement as
5'thterritorial militia prosprciing party," and
h mloates that it is only a move to do some pri
tis, gold-hunting at the public expense. There
always was much ill-feeling between Tucson and
ascot'. When Arizona is settled up, it will
ýr.obably be cut up also into two territories.
.-The Maine Legislature continues in the work
.,t eform, and is ow eonsidering a bhll making
aol-ael'ing a State Prison offense. It is also
to make liable to all the penalties of the
tty law all those who engage in raf
reh and other fairs, making illegal grab
s, and the like. Thelaw giving

Wainsg th digen as was a esreptings th
habits of the members of the Legislature with a
series of wild debauches, which are thus severely
commented on by the Ci3cinnati Commerctal :
"It is to be feared that Gov. Williams, £f Indians,
in his desire to vindioate his claims as a society
man to an astonished world, is demoralizing the
Legislature by his hops and receptions, with gin
ger bread and ice cream thrown in. The Gover
nor should keep steadily in mind the fact that
the people have sent their represen'atives to the
capital to work for them, and that if their work
ing capacity is impaired by indulgence in unac
customed Ies and liuarter-sections of a kind of
cake that has a malicious tendency to swell In the
stomach, the responsibility will rest upon him."
