I was down there three days last week for mastodons in the bottom of the A-hky river. What do you think of that?” picking up a gigantic molar that weighed about eight pounds, and was grayish black in c >'or ari l half petrified. “How would yoy ike to own a tooth! like that and have it ache? If they did ache when they belonged to the masto dons, there must have been a tine howl ing down there in the swamps, for I've seen whole bushels o! just tuch teeth taken out of the rivers, and there are tons of them there slid. And it isn’t mastodons alone that you find, but chunks . of titanotheriurns, dinocerusts, teliosts, zcuglodons, Lipparinns. megalomeryxes —whenever you get enough, say when— chiwopotiiuusscs, | cebrotheriums " “When?" ‘ Why, in the teifiary period. And if you dis’ a liiilo deeper, I think you would find pterrod icty-1, megalos.iurs, glypto dons ’’ • "When! When!" * Ohl” “Are many persons cr!g"ged io these mines?” “I should say so. There are four or fire lie companies, and ever so many lit tle ones.” " All digL’iug up mastodons?” ‘ Yes, sir; not for the sake of the mas todons, but lor the phosphate that the mastodons are mixed tip in. Bless you, they don't slop to pick out mastodons and piece thim together. They throw the whole product into crushers and smash it up, and when it is ground it sells for from $6 to sls a ton for ferti.iz.aii,»n. Many a farmer is spreading d-siccated mastodons and arc! x tpteryxes around his cori.fiold and potato patch —masto dons and arc! aoipteryxes that wore —ah! —s! -eping the stony sleep of centuries.

The sup ply seems to bo inexhaustible. At least they can go on at the present rate f u twenty five years more. Do you sec that photograph? That's the gun that i- used in catching mastodons." The photograph showed something that looked like a wilted iron tu'ip dang ling from the end of a stem of rods and chains. A man stood beside the tulip to show that ils six iron petals were as long as lie, and that before it win full blown ho could ca ily have sat inside the bud had there been anyway of getting in. “That's a drop nttpplc.

Whatever tends to 1 stir lascivious thoughts and feelings in ‘ the bosoms of men is wrong, and it should be studiously avoi 1 :d. This, if lam not greatly mistaken, h the greatest evil growing out of promiscuous dancing. The girls may be innocent enough and ! pure enough, but they would not submit themselves to the touch and embrace of men if they knev, or c mil bs made to believe, that this contact stirred a mu! titudc of unholy thoughts in the bosoms ofmen. My opinions are foimed from what I have heard men say after the dance is over. Promiscuous dancing, i particularly the fashionable forms of it tends tp lasciviousness among men. Our girls and young women ought to quit, it for the sake of men. Somebody, partic ularly mother-, ought to talk plainly and e.-irnestly to our girls on this subject. It is almost impossible for young mo i not to think the same impure thoughts stirred in them by the close persona! contact of the dance, do not also find a place in ‘he minds and hearts of young women. This thought is enough to frighten a pure, prudent young woman out. of the ball room. If she knew the truth, she cer tainly w mid not be the ceasion or cause of so much lasciviousness. The impel tance of this siibjeet demands plainness and p< ititc hies- of speech. .Again: L>w seek and short sle .ve dresses 0~. our women —half nude dre-s --ing —stirs an 1 cultivate s lasciviousne-1 i.i men. The sir's ought to quit wearing tLetses of this kind. The love of God and purity ought to move them to it. I they knew, or could be made to believe, the character of thoughts stirred in the bosoms of the young men who “leer" on them, I believe they would scorn ami hate a fashion of this kind. It will not do to say: “Evil be to him that evil thinks, ’’ for it is equally true hat guilt attaches to one who stirs evil thoughts. Ifthc girl- think that I am “straiuitig at a gnat" lei them ask their mother-, fathers and brothers. They ought to know, and they ought to tell you. Tin y ought to have told you of these thing long ago. It should not have been Ir fi for me, or any else to do, S >me folks ar too tiniij to do wlrit they know ought to be done. I say these things to you plain ly, l-ut tenderly, and in much love. If 1 do not ray tl em likely no ere < Ise will, and after I have .-aid them there may be some, perhaps many, who vi 1 endorse and enforce what I have said. Some will get mad nnd say bard thing- of me. bu’ this matters not, for I hive c<-;mi I r el this question in the Iciir of Gi.d, nnd 1 am utterly indiTercnt to the consequences so fur ns lan pcrsonr.l'v concerned.

The coninierci il and industrial cry of to day is "developemctit. ” N w field.- are constantly sought. New enterprises arc being constantly inaugurated and new markets discovered nnd created. Ihe western hemisphere, North, Cen tral tied SouthAmeriea, afford a vast and a rich territory for these efforts. From rhe day of the first advent i.f Columbus to the present lime constant surprises have awaited the researches of the cn- I terprising. Every effort discovers new ' fields, unfolds new wealth. -A vast unde veloped territory is awaiting the enter prise of the people of the present decade. Os bite yeais the attention of commer cial men and mannfic'urers has been di rected to countries south, especially to Mexico and Central America. These countries not only contain many millions ol'popula i m that need supplies and tr.an uli.ctured articles of which our own conn try produces a surplus, but are exceed ingly rich in natural produetsand mineral wealth. A most potent factor in attract . itig attention to these countries, an I es tablishing relations of comity and com- I mereial reciprocity with the ; r inhabitants ‘ was the lute World's Exposition at New ■ Orleans. Most of these conn ri?s were ’ ! there represented, and large numbers of I their citiz'ns were visitors at the Expo- I sition. The unfortunate delays and dis- | j Acuities which attended the opening and ? I eat Her days of the World’s Exposition] i prevented a full realization of the bene i fits it was expected to produce. To rem- ’ ] edy this a new con pany has been organ- ' ized and a new Exposition will be open- I ; ed. We have received the prospectus of the North, Central, and South American Exposi ion which opens on November the JOth, next. This new company has : teen organized with a capital of SSOO,- ■ i 000. It has purchased the buildings and I plant of the World's Exposition and is! now in possession of the same. It pro I poses to inaugurate even a greater and j more interesting Exposition than the magnificent World's Exposition. Thu new company startscut under the most favorable circumstances, with the build ings at.d accessories iu hand and in order for occupancy, and paid for, the great bulk of their work is already accomplish- ed. Many of th§ prominent exhibitors | at the World’s Exposition have*)eft their ] exhibits intact. Large numbers will re- i turn with greatly increased and far more j attractive exhibits, and appli’ations for space from new exhibitors are pouring iu in large numbers. The new Exposition will benefit large ly from the experience of the old. The questions of railroad fares and accom modations for visitors become easy. Ihe work of obtaining concessions and of sjs tematizing liavi.ig already been accom plished. Deficiencies and impediments in the management of the old Exposi tion will be remedied. Nothing seems to stand in the way of its grand success. The public will rejoice and especially 'hose who failed to attend the late mag nificent Exposition that the opportunity for attend me-- i- presented to them. KILLED.

A minister who arrived in the city a few days ago from Nevada, where he had been doing missionary work for several years, tells some curious stoiies cf people and things in that country. He spent a portion of his time in Virginia < ity and had to look to the people for his support. Once a we k be went among the business men for contributions. He took in the sa loons and gambling shops, as well as the banks and stores- Contributions were generally on the liberal scale, as th ‘ people,though not particularly re ligious, thought well of the cause, and vowi d. one and all, that they woi’ d not let the preacher suffer. On almost every round he received a number of ‘•poker < hips,” worth from 81 to $-5. These he would take to the bank, where they were readily cashed. He I says he had at first some conscientious scruples about accepting this kind of support, but he soon found the "chips” were used l>y all classes, nnd he thought it no harm to follow the cus toms of the place Among the saloon-keepers was a perfect Hercules in stature and strength. He was a man of violent temper and savage disposition, and bad killed his man. He was therefore generally feared. This man was prac licallv boss of the town, lie sent the preacher word that he wanted to see him at h:s saloon. The preacher went and was informed that l:e could get rom $5 to $lO a week by calling at the saloon for it, and that i 5 would be taken as nn insult if lie refused. The proposition was promptly accepted, and thereafter, as long ss ‘.he preacher remained in tow n, he hid no better friend or more liberal contributor than the burly saloon keeper. On one occ.ision, while in the sa loon to receive his weekly stipend, another minister entered and present ed his claims for assistance. Tiie sa loon in n refused togive I im anythirg, saying: "What are you doing in town, ■inyhuiv? I suppose you want to start an opposition church or something, and get up a row among us Christians. I'll teil you why I won’t give you anj money. You see this man here? He’s a preacher, too. I’ve just given him $lO. We kn"W something about h’m. lie has a bishop behind him.

The only thing we could do would le to drive you away.” ’] he rival preacher never went back. The informant says it was Lis cus tom while in Virginia ( ity to bold re ligious services in the saloons and gambling de. s. He wuiil Igo in Sun ' day morning and say : “Well, bovs, it’s ' about time to close up. I want to hold meeting here. Have you any objec lions?’ They ne'er objected, and, I as a general thing, conducted them selves with tie utmost propriety du ] ring divine si-rii e. If one of them ; venture 1 to break over the line of de i corum, the others would compel him ! to behave himself or put him out. On i funeral occasions, which were frequent, the undertaker, who always managed the job, would compel the preacher to ride on the hear-e, he being eonsider- I ed "next in importa .ee to the corpse.” i - I'ittsbuiii Dispatch BII.LV .MUUKUOW- MANY VIRTUES!

I went to Pittsburgh, and while there fell on the street, my breatli seemed to leave my lungs, and numbness over- i power me. I determined to give Peruna and Man alin a fair trial. I used four bot tles of each, and my trouble left, never, I hope, to return. I left Pittsburgh three weeks ago for Kansas, and thought, as I was going to a new country, I had better take a bottle of Manalin with me, on account of bad water, etc. I arrived here with one-half bottle. I found one of my friends in a pretty bad condition. The doctors were treating her for chills and fever. I did not know what her trouble was, though I persuaded her to use the Manalin. She did so. and the first day she was up doing her work. Now this seems strange, but it is, never theless, a candid truth.
