The friends of the late Mr. llalstou
have at length discovered a cause for
the California bank fuilure which en
tails no discredit on the.dead presi
dent. The press was the root ot the
evil! At a public meeting recently
held in San Francisco, where spoecbes
eulogistic oftbc deceased were made,
the imbolders of MY. Jtalston denoun
ced', tub 'Associated I'ress lor'baying
subtilely circulated intelligence which
led to t he crisis because of a quarrel
between the Bulletin, und Call and the
bank proprietors. The newspaper
press is indeed an institution of many
sided utility. Statesmen, politicians,
men cf commerce, and those generally
who stand out saliently, lind it most
useful?when*they get badly "corner
ed''?as a scapegoat which may be
made to bear all the evils they pro
perly are chargeable.with..They em
ploy it thus with all the more effron
tery because they feel their at tack?
will be ignored, if only they be ?bt too
personal. ' The general agent of the
Associated Press having been spoken
at very directly, however, at the San
Francisco meeting, Mr. J. W. Simon
ton has stepped to the front in do
fence, and told the voracious orators
a few things more pointed than flatter
ing. In a letter to the New York

citizens' when they fail to make such
formal complaint as would subject the

which makes tit (era neb of false news

Good Advice.
The author of thin is not known, but
be or 'slid is certainly a wise man or
woman : Would you show yourself
really good to your daughters ? Then
bo geaerous to them in a truer senso
than that of hcap.ng trinkets on their
necks. Train them for independence
first, and then labor to give it to them.
Let thein( as soon as ever they are
grown up, have some little money, or
means of making money, to be their
own, and teach them how to deal
with it, without needing every mom
ent somobody to help them. Calculate
what you give them or will bequeath
to them, not as is" usually done, on the
chances of their making a rich mar
riage, but on the probability of their
remaining single, and according to
the scale of living to which you have
accustomed them. Suppress their
luxury .now if need be, but do not
leave them with scarcely bare necess
aries hereafter, in striking contrast to
their present home. Above all, help
them to help themselves. Fit them
to be able to add to their own means,
rather than to be forever pinching and
economizing till their minds are nar
rowed and their hearts are sick. Give
all the culture you can to every power
which they may possess. If they
should marry alt?r all, they will be
the happier and better for it. If they
should remain among the million of
the unmarricd, they will bless you in
your grave, and say of you, what can

I A Good Rule.
Do./unto others as you would have
otheft)"^o?tinto you, is a rule so bene
ficent that, if followed strictly, this
world be an Eden, blossoming iikcthc
rose. It. is the violation of this rule,
this golden precept, that makes so
much of the missery we suffer in this
life. We would have others just,
kind, and considerate to us, we blame
them when they are not so; but we
take no account of our own short
comings, our own wanderings from
the perfect way. There are very few
who pretend to take this rule as their
guide in dealing with their brother
man, or sister woman. We do unto
others many things that we would
rather not have them do unto us, acts
of injustice, cruelty, arid wrong.
Did we cherish this rule in our
heart, and walk by its pure light, ho*w
uia^y tears would never have flown,
how many woes would, never have
thrown their shadows lipon our path
way. Thore would be no evil speak
ing nor slandering; no deceiving, tin
taking advantage of each other; no
robbing, no killing. Home would be
a sweet, restful spot, where no harsh
word would jar the melody of love
and kindne-s. Tlic marts of business
would know no over-reaching, no (Iis
lioncsty. The balls of pleasure would
resound with mirth, unmixed by envy,
jealousy, and evil* passions.
Do unto others as you would have
others 'do unto you is truly a precious
golden rule, which if universally car
ried out, would produce a complete
and most happy revolution among
tbo inhabitants' of this earth.

A Heart Moving Scene.
One of the grandest upoetaeles ever
witnessed was put upon the stngo of
the Masonic Temple, Louisville, dur
ii g the session of the Grand Lodge of
Masons. Tho hour of adjournment
arrived, and Grand Master Jones an
nounced that the body would adjourn
without signs, as he had reason to be
lieve eavesdroppers were behind the
I scenes. He urged the members to re
main, and all retained their Heats.
Tho gavel Bounded, the bell tinkled,
the curtain ti prose, and before the as
tonished Grand Lodge sixty orphans
stood, wards ol Masonic charity. The

these fatherless ones moved strong
men to tears, and many eyes unused
to tears rcudercd a tribute to tins sil- i
cut appeal. A welcome song was
sung, the sentiment of which touched
every heart and tears fell down rri.Vn<
ly cheeks like rain. There were other
exercises speeches, dialogues, songs,
etc., all ol them adapted to the occa
sion, and each in succession intensify
ing feeling until the pent-up hearts
could obtain no longer, and sobs were
audible all through the vast hall. When
the exercises, concluded there w a3 a
spontaneous call, loud and prolonged,
from six huudred brethren of the
auditorium to send the girls down for j
a collection. It was taken, and the
treasury of tho ?'Home" was hand

It should be borne in mind that
though the wick is but little burned it
is constantly becoming less able to
conduct tli3 oil. During several weeks
some quarts of oil are slowly filtered
through the wick,stops every particle
of dust or other matt 1 that will with
the utmost cure be in the best kinds
of oil. Tho result is that the wick
though it is of sufficient length and
looks as good as ever has its conduct
ing power greatly impaired, us its
pores so to speak or the minute chan
nels by wlrtch the oil reaches the place

structed. It is often economy to
substitute a new wick for nn old one,
