vent the earth's wobbling 01: deviating
slightly from its plane of rotation if one
end of it is heavier than than tbe other
oi has not precisely the same form ? The
greater diameter at the equator tends to
steady it; but were the relative angle ot
the axis changed, no matter bow little,
the equator would change place, and
there would soon follow the modification
of form necessary to the maintenance of
the difference between tbe polar and
equatorial diameters. - ^ ?
i ? Books" have been^'written to show
where the poles must have been at differ?
ent epochs to render possible tbe climatic
changes that the world has undergone.
In the' earliest period of rock formation
the South pole was near, the Antarctic
'circle, sotith of theI Indian Ocean. In tbe
metamorphic period it was in Mid
Atlantic near tbe equator, in the creta
cean period a little southeast of Cape
Horn, and in the tertiary a few degrees
southwest of the Cape of Good Hope.
In other-early epochs it was in the West?
ern part of Australia; and in tbe Indian
Ocean not far south of Hindustan. When
it was on or near the equator tbe climate
of what is now the polar region was tor?
rid,. and"what fts now the temperature
.zone similar to what it is at present.
The earth, it will be seen, has under?
gone many changes more remarkable
than a future change of the position of
its north poles 40? or 50? to the south?
west, or into the midetof the paradise
that we call California, It "is a frail
body, and in a universe that is full of
uncertainties. Fixed stars, the suns of
other planetary systems, have burned
up in space before our eyes. Changes
are going on in the sun of whose effects
we are at liberty to imagine the worst.
Let the north pole change its place to
the point near the northern shore of Lake
Superior and the whole United States
would become uninhabitable. A new
race of Esquimaux might possibly in that
event live on the northern Bhore of the
Gulf of Mexico. If it should be trans?
ferred to the mouth of tbe Mississippi a
retreat <of those who could get aw?y to
the northern part of British America or
to Greenland would be in order. That
one of these changes of axis might also
result in the end of all things earthly is
among the possibilities.
g An Inquiry,
Mb, Editob :??Has one a moral or
legal right to poisou fruit, roasting ears
or melons, in order to prevent thieves
from Btealing them ? Some people, both
white and black, think they have a right
to steal melons and fruit. How is one to
prevent it?
Farmer.
This question, like many others, is
easier to ask than answer. As a general
thing, a man has a right to do as be
pleases with his own property, provided
he does not interfere with other people in
the enjoyment of their rights, and pro?
perty. One might destroy a whole field
of corn, or acres of melons and his
neighbors would be none the worse off,
because they could have no possible
interest in these articles. One should
:not scatter poisou on the highway, or
place poisoned fruits or melons , were
they would certainly be taken. A man
lias tbe legal right Id insert poison into
melons, provided he gives warning in a
public manner, and takes special pains
to destroy all that were poisoned so that
it will do no harm. There are many
persons in the country, and white people
are worse than negroes, who think it is
fun to raid a water-melon patch. They
hardly regard it as stealing, but they
seem to thick tbey have a right to melons
just as they do to fruits growing on the
wayside. Then these lowdown white
trash will not only steal melons to eat!
but they will maHdously-r. destroy what
"they^cannotcarry away. -.Negroes never.:
do that They have too "much respect
for the "water million" to destroy them
In ^wanton manner. The best plan is
to take a little trouble and catch the
bcoundels in the act, arresc them on the
spot and indict them for stealing from
the field. That, with a good jury and
such judges as we have, will send them
up to a place where they will not ramble
much, gratifying their thievish propensi?
ties. As to placing poison in melons,
each man must be his own judge as to
the morality o f the act. If it is done dne
advertisement of the fact should be made
so that rogues would take tbem at their,
own risk.?Spartanburg'Spartan.

Old Juoal in tie Valley.
Winchester, Va., Jane 6.?The
graves of 3,800 veterans in Stonewall
Cemetery were decorated this afternoon
in the presence of 10,000 people. Gen.
Jubal Early, orator of the day, was in*
trodnced by Ex-Governor Halliday in an
eloquent speech. Gen. Early, in opening
his speech, said:
When I last saw Winchester, which
was the theatre of so many stirring
events, it was amid the din of battle,
accompanied with the roar of artillery
and the flash of musketry. After a des?
perate and most unequal struggle; which
lasted from daybreak till dusk of evening,
my command was compelled to retire on
that, occasion before an overwhelming
force of the enemy, which numbered
nearly, if not quite, 50,000 men, of whom
more than 10,000 were cavalry, superbly
armed and equipped, while my entire
force of all arms did not exceed 12,000,
or 13,000 at farthest, My command re?
tired fighting, and all the stores and
wounded, with the exception of those
whose condition prevented their removal
and some who were on the field of battle,
were safely carried to the rear, as was my
artillery, with the exception of three
pieces, from which the horses bad. been
killed, rendering it impracticable to
carry them off.
It is for the purpose of rendering hom?
age to the memory of the brave men who
fell on that occasion as well as on other
occasions, especially under the lead of
immortal Jackson, that you are here as?
sembled, and that I have come to unite
with you with all my heart.
There is one thing which must strike
with great force the impartial student of
history who may read accounts of the
different battles and campaigns of the
war written from the Federal or Union
I standpoint, and that ia the wonderful
I capacity the Confederate soldier bad
! of multiplying himself on the field
of battle. According to many of
those accounts there was scarcely a battle
or campaign in which the Confederate
did not outnumber Union soldiers.
After giving a description of the battle
of Cedar Creek, Gm, Early said: "You
will perceive that Sheridan # made his
famous picnic rido 'twenty miles away,'
over a distance of about ten miles, and
that it took him from early in the morn?
ing until about noon to make it." The
speaker then contradicted the "state?
ments from memory" of Gen, Grant, and
the Army and Navy Journal in reference
to the battles, saying these will give some
idea of how our adversaries vindicate the
truth of history, and it will also show that
our men bad the faculty of multiplying
themselves, not. only on the field of
ba';tle, but also after they were killed,
wounded or captured.
In speaking ?l' the-devastation of the
Valley, so th at a crow flying over it would
be forced to carry rations,'" Gen. Early
said that Sheridan was placed in com?
mand of an army that had been organiz?
ed for the campaign in the Valley. On
the 6th day of Angus6 the ordero previ?
ously given to Biunter were turned over
to him for his guidance. It will be seen
from the directions of Halleck that the
devastation of this beautiful valley was
due rath er to tho "magnanimity of Grant
than to the barbarity of Sheridan." The
men whose bodies now lie in this cemete?
ry gave their lives for what they not
only believed to be, but what I insist was,
a just and righteous cause. That' cause
was lost, but that did not prove that it
was wrong ; for the history of the world,
abounds with, instances in which might
has proved more powerful than right.
The fact, therefore, that the cause for
which these brave soldiers gave their
lives failed of success and that we have
accepted the result with the determina?
tion to abide the issue as the final Bettle
msnt of the questions which led to the
conflict, does not justify those time ser?
vers who pretend to have discovered that
they were on the wrong Bide in the con?
test, either from want of mauly courage
or from some sinister motive of self inter?
est. As I have said, on former occasions,
if ever I repudiate, disown, or -apologize
for the cause for which Lee fought and
Jackson died, may the lightning of
heaven blast me, and the scorn of all
good women and, true men be my portion.
And, again, I say that the Confederate
who has .deserted since the war is infin?
itely worse than one who deserted dur?
ing the war, for :he -former has gone over
to the enemy "at no personal risk to
himself and si mply from motives of gain,
while the latter took his life in hi3 hands,
knowing-tha^he would beyshbt if cap?
tured; and in tfnumberjof cases he was
tempted to leave the service to go to the
assistance of his. family, which he was
I induced to believe was starving at home.
Losing their Faith.
' ^Johnstown, June 5.?The people of
Johnstown have lost all their faith in
Providence. Many of them have thrown
away their'Bibles, and, since the disaster,
have openly burned them. They make
no concealment of this.
During thk flood one of the most up?
right 'and devoui merchants in town was
rescued as by a miracle. He was float?
ing on the roof of a house, which was
whisked around with frightful rapidity.
At every revolution part of the roof was
knocked away, until but a few Bhingles
were left, to which the merchant clung
with desperation. Just as he was on the
point of sinking, his slight raft was
thrown near enough to a window to per?
mit some friends to seize him by the
hand. It was with considerable difficulty
that he was revived, but as be waa lying
on the bed a clergyman who was present
dropped on his knees and earnestly began
to pray.
"Leave me," cried the merchant.
"This is no time to pray or to thank God.
I never want to see your face again."
A lady who had lost her husband and
four children was gathering together the
relics of her home when she came across
the family Bible containing the record of
her birth, marriage, and the births of her
children. A stranger happened to pass
and tearing the records out, she proffer?
ed the book to him. The man happened
to be a clergyman. "Do you realize,
madam, what you are doing?"
"Perfectly," was the reply. "I have
no further use for that book. I have
always tried to be a consistent Christian
woman, I brought up my four girls as
strictly as I was, but I cannot read that
book any more."
The clergyman thought the loss of her
family had turned her head and called
the next day. She refused to see him.
He sent some of her friends to see her,
but, after explaining the circumstances,
she refused to enter into any argument.
Nor are these the only instances. The
prominence of the people makes these
cases all the more discussed and many of
the Burvivcrs, particularly those who had
to fight for their lives, who saw their
houses dashed to pieces and their loved
ones perish before their eyes, openly
follow their example. Services will be
held in the open air on Sunday and more
or less curiosity exists to see whether the
apostates are as numerous as current
reports indicate.?New Yorh Times.
Cararrh Can't be Cured
With local application, aa they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is
a blood or constitutional disease, and in
order to cure it you have to take internal
remedies. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, and acta directly on the blood
and mucua surface. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is no quack medicine. It was prescribed
by one of the best physicians in this
country for years, and is a regular pre?
scription. It is composed ot the best
tonics known, combined with the best
blood purifiers, acting directly on the
mucus surface. The perfect combination
of the two ingredients is what produces
such wonderful results in curing catarrh.

? Mr. Henry Exall, a well-known
banker of Dallas, Texas, and a prominent
Democratic politician, who is now in
Philadelphia, is an enthusiastic believer
in libe future of the "Lone Star" State.
He states that in the eastern section of
the State there are immense deposits of
red and brown hematite, magnetic and
specular ores. The attention of Eastern
capitalists has been directed to this ore
land, and a good deal of it has been
bought up within the past six months.
He predicts that before many years
Dallas, Fort Worth, Galvestoc and many
other towns in Texas will be manufactur?
ing cities on a large scale. Up ? to date,
says Mr. Exall, the crops this year are on
a more extensive scale, in better condition
and with brighter prospects than at any
time in the past. The cities are growing
rapidly and are ? generally, prosperous.
The populatien of the State in 1880 was
1,600,000, and Mr. Exall is confident the
census of1890 will show at least 3,000,000.
The State has not only grown in popula?
tion, but has increased in an equal ratio
in wealth and commercial importance.
In October next, from the 15th to the
27th, the State fair will be held at Dallas.
The whole State will be represented in
miniature. Nearly every county will
have an exhibit of its material resources,
developed and undeveloped. Mr. Exall
mentions as a peculiarity to Texas that it
not only raises the fruits and crops of the
extreme South, but is fully equal in the
production of the cereals, to any other
section. ?
