MEXICAN INDIANS. Statesmen, Soldiers, Jurists and Poets in the L/st. Life Anrng the Peon? Who Work in the Haciendas arulE.ui:hiS. A City of Mexico letter to the Chicago Herald mentions some of Mexico’s civil¬ ized Indians who have achieved distinc¬ tion. Among them are the late patriot, President Juarez; the present President, General Diaz; the Indian judge, Alli mirano, who is also a poet and historian; Ramerez, an Indian scientist, and oth¬ ers. Continuing, the correspondent says: “learned” I might mention a score of Indians who woulcl be an honor to any country. For the present I desire only to refer to “the shoit and simple annals of the poor;” to the obscure mountain¬ eers and peons, because the characters of these lowly people are rarely known or studied by tourists, or else when not de¬ scribed as “stupid brutes,” are depicted as “savages.” I admit that great numbers of the “Populacho” or lower class of Indians in the large cities are idle, lazy, dissipated and worthless, but the wonder is that centuries of Spanish oppression did not brutalize them still more. These people, however, are very different from the pe¬ ons, who perform all the labor of the ha¬ ciendas and ranches and work on the rail¬ roads. Throughout therural districts the Indians are sober, industrious and ex¬ tremely honest. In the “pueblos” or tribal settlements there are some com¬ munities which are models of virtue and industry. Only twelve leagues from this capital there is a large Pueblo up in the mountains which is governed by a “Council of Twelve,” formed by six aged “wise-men” and six “venerable matrons.” No cure or priest is allowed there, al¬ though about two centuries ago Jesuit missionaries did manage to effect and en trance and finally taught the Indians to believe m the existence ot an omnipo¬ tent God, a self-sacrificing Redeemer and a “Great Mother.” This belief they still retain; nevertheless their religion is part¬ ly that practiced by their Ottomie ances¬ tors and is also imbued with some of the milder Aztee superstitions. In fraternal love and Christian charity these mountaineers surpass us—for ex¬ ample, every Saturday each able-bodied man, woman, grown boy and girl leaves his or her grounds or usual avocations and all, under the direction of “the venerable fathers and mothers,” devote that entire day to the culture of the lands belonging to the widows and young orphans, or else to laboring for the benefit of the old, sick, blind and helpless members of the community. In order to attain thedignity of “patriarch” a man must submit to “a judgment,” or a review of ail his past life, and will only be elected if, upon strict investiga¬ tion, it is proved that during youth and early manhood he has been honest, laborious, and truthful. A matriarch must be a respectable woman who has brought up a large family properly aud has never been known to steal, or to have been addicted to lying or gossiping. Through the Jesuits these Ottome Indians long ago learned the existence of a great city, which replaced Teno chtitlan, the far-famed capital of the Montezumas, and at times some am¬ bitious youth yearns to seek fortune there; or, perchance, some father of a large family, fearing that his allotment of land will not support all, is willing to allow his eldest or second son to go out into the world. When the hour of departure has come the young would-be emigrant is accompanied to the brow of a certain hill and there the entire com munity take an affectionate leave of him. When his own parents have blessed him the patriarchs and matriarchs bestow their benedictions upon him, and then admonish him “to be sober, honest, in¬ dustrious and truthful,” and never to commit any act which would be a dis¬ grace to his native Pueblo. The poor, Ottomie emigrants, being utterly ignorant of the Spanish language, usually feel very unhappy here for awhile, but they are intelligent, and in the course of time gain a foothold which they studiously maintain, for they aro honest and soon inspire confidence. Whenever these exiles from homo have an opportunity to send back a message to their Pueblo their greetings to the venerable fathers and mothers are a! ways as warm as those to their own blood kindred.

Grant’s Reticence. For year-, says General Baaeau, writ¬ unwilling- • ing about General Grant, liis j speech , ,, ’When T , , ness to matte a was curious. ; he was nominated for the Presidency he i declared that lie had neither the power of pub! c .'peaking nor the disposition to I in , the long . i acquire it. series oi recop- j tions that followed him everywhere after i the close of the war, not more than two I or three words were ever extorted from ! , lnm . in repiy . to , encomiums . and . even a in- . j lation such as few men have heard ad- j dressed to themselves. I was once traveling witli liSu^by railroai during tS. licighL of his eauy popularity. \\ herover the train stopped it was surrounded by nr dent and patriotic throngs. His silence “ — ““ a - - * woman in the crowd cried out: “I want to see the man that lets the women do all the talking.” At another time liis youngest son, Jesse, then a boy of only 7 years, came out on the platform when the cries for a “speech” were loudest, and his father was as silent as the Sphinx. The lad looked first at the mass of enthusiastic people before him and then at the great soldier by his side, and inquired: “Papa, why don’t you speak to them?” But Grant remained mute, and Jesse at last cried out: “I can make a speech, if papa can’t.” The shouts instantly went up: “A speech from Jesse! A speech from Jesse!” Then there was a hush, and the child began in his treble voice, but without a shade of the embarrass¬ ment his father would have felt: The boy stood on the burning deck. Jesse made another speech during the same summer that was even more felicitous. Grant and his family were at the farm near St. Louis, where Airs. Grant’s father resided, and one hot day after tlie 2 o’clock dinner, when every¬ body went out on the lawn, Jesse mounted a haystack and exclaimed, “I’ll show you how papa makes a speech.” Grant himself laughed and we all went up to the haystack. Then Jesse made a bow (which his father would not have done) and began: “Ladies aud gentle¬ men, 1 am very glad to sec you. thank you very much. Good night. - Everyone laughed, but Grant blushed up to his eyes. I don’t think he relished the imitation at all; it was too close. But Jesse was the baby and we talked about something else. Coltl Weather Laws. Never lenn with tho back upon any¬ thing that is cold. Never begin a jour¬ ney until the breakfast lsus been eaten. _ -Never take waxIKTTmik'Tand then im mediately go out in the cold. Keep the back, especially between the shouider-blades, well covered; also, the chest well protected. In sleeping in a cold room establish the habit of breath ing through the nose, and never with the mouth open. Never go to bed with cold or damp feet. Never omit regular bathing, for unless the skin is in active condition the cold will close tho pores and favor congestion or other diseases. After exercise of any kind never ride in an open carriage or near the window of a car for a moment; it is dangerous to health and even to life. Merely w.aim the back by a fire and never continue keeping tho back ex¬ posed to heat after it has become com fortably warm. To do otherwise is de bilitating .—Farm and Fireside. Weather Predictions. Wiggins aud other false weathor prophets should read the story of Par tridge, the celebrated almanac maker of old England. Travelling in the coun trv, he stopped at an inn for dinner, and afterwards prepared to resume las jour ney. The hostler advised him to stay where he was, as it would certainly rain. “Nonsense,” said Partridge, and pro ceeded on liis way. lie had not gone far, however, when, sure enough, a heavy shower of rain descended. Struck by the man’s prediction, Partridge rode back, and was received by the hostler with . . The almanac . maker offered a grin. him half a crown on condition that he told how he knew it was going to rain, “Well, the truth is, sir, that we have an almanac here called Partridge’s almanac, and the fellow is such a notorious liar that whenever he promises a fine day we always know it will be the opposite. Now, to-day, yer honor, is set down as fine day in aimanac> ,. ----------- Angling in the Air. Notable among the denizens of the Balkan mountains is a bird called by the native the wasp-eater.

A BICE PLANTATION. <rj ]0 JtnnntT in U liii-Ii ■ lie Fields nre I Icoil¬ ed A Pictiitnrut night. As the -. germ root pushes out j soon ns j underneath the grain in search for food, a minute point is visible above the ground, reaching up for light and air. q'^jg | s the embryo stalk,and corresponds with the germ root. The plant is now in the proper stage for forcing, and ilic Wretch water should he put on at or.ee. The water is at first turned on deep, in tirely covering the surface of the squares, and the young plant, drinking in the life-giving fluid, commences to rear its « always more or less tinged with mud — and the tender shoot battles manfully with its semi-translucent covering to istasaiisa, high—a period stretched, or a few inches extending through from two to ten days —the water is slacked down to what is known as “slack-water gauge,” and so gi'C as to it show the tops of the plant necessary air and sunshine. If the plant is longer than the water is deep, which is generally the case, it floats its upper leaves on the surface in singularly long, waving lines across the squares—a at¬ tractive and beautiful picture. It sel¬ dom happens, however, that the whole plantation is under the same treatment at the same time, for, with 500 or 600 acres to sow, it is a difficult matter in ear iv spring, with frequent interruptions from rains and bad weather, to seed down so large an acreage in time for utilizing any one spring tide for flowing. A largo plantation will run live or six grain drills at once and put in sometimes sixty five or seventy acres daily; but even with as rapid work as this it is impossi¬ ble to get all in contemporaneously. Consequently it is a common thing to see perhaps one-fourth of the squares under the stretch water, another fourth under charge of the “gun squad;” wait¬ ing for the tender point to shoot; an¬ other series under the sprout water and the remainder in process of planting, all at once. This necessarily adds greater interest aud diversity to the process and prospect. Sometimes, too, the rice comes up mixed with “volunteer;” this is the product of the grain shaken out during the previous harvest and scattered broadcast over the land. This can gen¬ erally be removed by the lioe, but where it is very thick sometimes necessitates replowing and seeding, thus throwing late a portion of the crop. This volun¬ teer rice is hardy and prolific and ex¬ ternally similar to white rice, but the objection to it is that the lrerry is red and greatly reduces the grade of rico with which it is mixed, besides totally unfitting it for seed. To destroy this obnoxious tare the fields aro sometimes thrown into dry cropa for a year or two or kept under water for a like time. It will he remembered that each square is under separate control and, except where two or more arc temporarily united by the check banks washing through, can be flowed and draine_djndepeiidently at the pleasure of the planter. A walk over the banks of a plantation at this period is replete with interest; at every step the “tiddlers,’ scurrying into from their un¬ der your feet and ducking holes, each one, as he disappears, wav¬ ing aloft in defiance his disproportionate manacle. Yonder are small squads dragging of negroes i i twos and threes, with long wooden rakes the floating trash aud stubble blo.vnby the wind in masses against the lee banks and piling it on the pathways. Over there the rat¬ tle of the grain drills is heard seeding down the few belated squares. Here is the trunk-minder withhis assistant hard at work repairing a teak. On the canal bank is (lie overseer in consultatio i with the planter on his daily visit to the fields, bis little sailboat rocking at the wharf down by the quarter. Attention is called to a defective trunk or a dangerous bunk; stretch water, to-morrow, must be turned on number six and number eight, and sprout water let oil from seventeen and twenty-three. The long cord of the submerged thermometer is drawn in hand over hand, its reading carefully taken and the mean tempera ture of the water lor the month in the overseer’s handy note-book is compared with that of last year and determined. dependent operations deduced and From the high and dry squares on the further side conies the casual pop of the musket, while flocks of daws and hungry crows circle overhead, awaiting llieir S| * } outiBg *„in. Everything works in its appropriate groove and little is left to chance. The stretch water is held at the slack gauge from twenty to forty dajs, when the “dry root” and tho leaves corrcs pon ding to it have put out.
