Burlington Hawk-Eyetems. The lion is the king of beasts, but the cow is the boss. Don't blame a locomotive engineer for scolding; it's his business to rail. Yale College is to have a Chinese professorhip. Hoh! Chinamen can't now boats. The trees began leaving so long ago last May. And now the leaves are doing the same things themselves. Cotopaxi has broken out again in an eruption that fairly rivals the talk torrents of the presidential caravan. We didn't strike either, Mr. Vanderbilt and yet nobody distributes $100,000 among us. P.S. There is only one of "us." Eight deaths from eating frogs' legs were reported in one week, in Hartford. We didn't suppose that anything could kill a man who could eat frogs' legs. An English chemist has been fined for selling soda water with no soda. In it. That wouldn't be much of a crime out here, but it would ruin the soda man's business if he left the whisky out. It isn't just the thing to rub the down off the peach with the cuff of your coat, but it is rather inconvenient to carry a piece of sand paper, and perhaps you had better use your coat than eat the fuzz. A sad accident occurred at one of the saloons on Maine street yesterday. A young man from the country went in for a drink of beer, and fell into a Buffalo schmitt, and was drowned before he could be fished out. A guileless boy was deluded the other day into picking up the handle of a galvanic battery. He yelled lustily until they "shut her off," and in describing his sensations he said he could taste green parsimmon all over himself. Senior several members of his cabinet took the stump, President Hayes has lost his hearing... The prayers of his congregation are requested for him in his affliction, but his hearing may be restored to him, at least as soon as the campaign is over. A clairvoyant is now stopping at Burlington who offers to show ladies their future husbands for $2. We know several who would pay her five times that sum if she could show them their present husbands at one o'clock A.M., on election nights.

We thought, says the Burlington Hawkeye, from the way he came into the office, and slammed his cane down on the table, and took and spank on the stove and said, "Well, Cully, how does the old thing work? That he was a circus agent; but his card showed him to be a modest, unprefending advertising agent of a Wisconsin paper. He had just come from Chicago, he said. We said, "Ah!" not because there was any particular brilliance in the remark, but because that is what we generally say, with a rising accent on the final syllable, when a man tells us he has been to Chicago. "Yes," he said; he had been to Chicago. But we a man up there! "No," we hadn't. "Well," he said, "don't send one there. Just a waste of time. I've been there nearly three weeks; and I just club myself every time I think what a fool I was to throw away so much time that I might have put in somewhere else to advantage." "Didn't he do anything in Chicago?" we asked rather timidly, for we began to see we were in the presence of a Master Mind: "Naw-waw!" he snarled, in a most contemptuous tone; "hardly made expenses; didn't pay salary. There three weeks, and only come away with $3,760 worth of ads. All cash, of course, and that makes it a little better; but it didn't pay for all that time. How much Chicago advertising are you carrying?" "We couldn't tell him, indeed, without consulting the business manager; but we were confident that the Hawkeye had, at inside figures, at least three or four dollars' worth of live Chicago advertisements." We began to think what a jewel this man must be on the business staff of a daily paper. "Was he going to St. Louis?" we asked. He burst into a sort of derisive laughter, for all the world like the opposition benches in Congress: "Been there," he said, "and isn't going back until times pick up a little: Deadest place you ever struck in your life. Nothing doing; just nothing." Why, I was there ten days—ten whole long days as I'm a truthful man; and only got—let me see—I'll give you the figures." And he pulled out his note-book, and ran over the leaves and down long columns of figures: "Yes, air; I was in St. Louis ten days to an hour; and only got $4,227.50; and $1,890.76 I have to take in trade; and only $2,130 cash-in-credit." "It is no wonder light in the above moment to their hand; a stranger will make pretty!" Greater no price; wider knowledge elsewhere; but for pleasing to the eye even picturesque growing to rival France.

We know several who would pay her five times that sum if she could show them their present husbands at one o'clock A.M. on election nights. PROFESSOR BELL, the inventor of the telephone, recently married. He married a deaf and dumb woman. Probably he thought there might be a great deal going on in a house so full of telephone that it wouldn't be really, vitally necessary his wife should hear. The other day the spirit of Robert E. Lee came down at Memphis, Missouri, materialized, and declared on a slate that he "approved the presidents polisy." Now if the "president" will only "aprove" General Lee's orthography, honors will be easy, and we can go right on talking politics. When Stanley Matthews gets hold of the morning paper first, at a hotell, he sits right down and freezes to it, and spells through all the advertisements and market reports, and tables of advertising rates and terms of subscription. That is the reason the American people hate him and want to kill him. The President ought to extend his southern pilgrimage as far as Mobile. Then he would have the opportunity of weeping over the grave of that estimable pirate," Raphael Semmes. We suppose they are afraid to make such a sorrowful journey, however, for fear Secretary Evarts would make one of his fiery, untamed jokes about it. A TRAVELER says Russian babies are never washed during their first year. In America the boy babies are washed regularly by their parents until they are about seven years old. From that time until they are thirteen they may get their feet wet once in a while, by some untoward accident, but their faces are rigidly treated on the Russian system. You can't pick up the family Bible at this season of the year without making your wife and sister scream; and filling the room with scattered ferns and autumn leaves in all stages of pressedness. On this account we have been compelled to deprive ourselves of the privilege of perusing that precious book anywhere save at the office, and the Hawkeye copy is so thumbed by constant use that the words are almost illegible. They have "sacred concerts" every Sunday in Terre Haute. Last Sunday one of the musicians at these concerts got into a quarrel with a hackman who was on a sacred drunk, and in the sacred row that ensued, the hackman had his sacred bowels most sacreligiously profaned with a sacred dirk knife. After which, the entertainment was concluded by the rendition of "Sweet Sabbath Eve," cornet obligate, with orchestral accompaniment. "DIVITIACUS," Caesar remarked one day, during the campaign against Ariovistus, when they had halted on the march for lunch. "Divitiacus, did you ever hunt for anything you didn't want to find!" Been there," he said, "and isn't going back until times pick up a little. Deadest place you ever struck in your life. Nothing doing; just nothing. Why, I was there ten days—ten whole long days, as I'm a truthful man; and only got let me see—I'll give you the figures." And he pulled out his note-book, and ran over the leaves and down long columns of figures. "Yes, air; I was in St. Louis ten days, to an hour, and only got $4,227.50, and $1,896.76. I have to take in trade, and only $2,130 cash-in-advance ads. Don't you send a man to St. Louis, if you don't want to pay his fare home." "Which way was he going from Burlington?" we asked; deeply impressed. "Oh; out along the line of the B. & M," he said; "out to Omaha; and may be out to Lincoln and up to Des Moines." "Now, don't go there," we begged him; "don't go out that way at all. It won't pay you: We know this country; and we know you won't make a cent on this trip." "Why not?" he naked; defiantly, and in a rather incredulous tone of countenance. "Because," we said, "the Hawkeye had a man all through that country one day hast week. It may appear incredible, but sir, that man was gone fifteen minutes, and came back with only $72,000 cash ads., a couple of national banks, six Nebraska farms, a Kansas cattle-ranch, and the Iowa State treasury; and the captain discharged him for not making his wages. It's as dead as——" But he was gone, and we heard him down stairs asking the business manager if he thought it was necessary to import a thoroughored liar to edit his paper. Improving the Mississippi. The chamber of commerce of St. Paul has sent out a call for a convention in that city on the 11th of October, to secure united action upon the part of western people in behalf of the improvement of the Mississippi river from St. Paul to the Gulf. In the preamble of the call the chamber of commerce sets forth the fact that the great wheat producing states of the Union are in the Mississippi valley—the state of Minnesota heading the column with 36,000,000 bushels, Iowa following with 34,000,000 bushels, Illinois 33,000,000 bushels, Wisconsin 25,000,000; Missouri 18,000,000—aggregating nearly 150,000,000 bushels or nearly one-half of the entire product of the United States, which is estimated at 325,000,000 bushels. The wheat product of the New England states is estimated as barely sufficient to supply them with bread three weeks, that of the state of New York six months, Pennsylvania and Ohio twelve months, leaving the states of the Mississippi valley the great and almost only exporting states of wheat; and furthermore, that the Mississippi river is the trunk line for heavy transportation upon which the whole country must depend as a check upon exorbitant freights, which consume the fruits of our industry; and cause us to pay higher prices for all we consume, and receive lower prices for all we sell. In view of these facts the St. Louis county into a sort of derivate laughter for all the world like the opposition benches in Congress. "Been there," he said, "and isn't going back until times pick up a little. Deadest place you ever struck in your life. Nothing doing; just nothing."

"Divitiae," Caesar remarked one day, during the campaign against Arlovistus, when they had halted on the march for lunch. "Divitiae, did you ever hunt for anything you didn't want to find?" The Eduan, with many tears, as was his general custom, confessed that he never did, and asked the ex-consul if he ever did. "Of a verity," replied the mighty Caesar, "I am doing that very thing now. I sat down in that clump of grass to eat my sandwich, and I am now looking to see if there is a cluster of sand burs sticking to the tail of my tunic." No Complaint. He was a singularly grave man, even for a sexton. For nearly a half century he had been a public functionary—had performed the conspicuous duties of a sexton; yet no one had ever seen him smile. Occasionally he joked, but he did it in such a funeral manner that no one could accuse him of levity. One day he was standing on the church steps, wiping his melancholy features with a red bandanna. A bearer stood near and three or four carriages were drawn up belldin it. The notes of the organ floated out of the windows with solenoid effect. A stranger came along and said: "Funeral?" And the old sexton gravely bowed his head—it was. "Who's dead?" The old man again wiped his brow and gave the name of the deceased. "What complaint!" asked the inquisitive stranger. Solennily placing his handanna in his hat and covering his bald head, the old sexton made answer: "There is no complaint; everybody is entirely satisfied." — Worcester Press. There are now in Philadelphia 450 cooperative and building loan associations, in which workingmen have nearly $70,000,000 invested. A LAST KICK. In the first division, second corps, we had a mule noted for his wonderful kicking powers. In fact, he was ready to give any one a kick upon all occasions. On the road to Richmond he got his leg broken in a bridge, and was taken out of the team and shot, and was to all appearances dead, when a soldier ran up, seized the mule by the tail, and exclaimed: "Now kick!" And the mule, having just one kick let him have it, breaking the soldier's jaw, and sent him rolling in the ditch. The soldier never heard the last of being kicked by a dead mule. NEW ENGLAND has in her savings banks the enormous amount of $750,000. If this sum was invested in government bonds on the Postal savings bank plan, it would reduce the interest cost on the national debt, and the amount of bonds sent abroad to be sold. In other words, more of United States bonds would be owned at home, and the investments would be safer and in every respect better for depositors than in their present shape. AN ANCIENT CUSTOM. The shaving of the head as a token of sorrow is still resorted to among many nations of the far East. The origin of the custom is very ancient, as mentioned in the Scriptures: "He arose and rent his mantle, and shaved his head." "La Belle France." It is no wonder that Frenchmen delight in the above affectionate compliment to their land. The exclamation of a stranger will most naturally be, "How pretty!" Greater solidity, broader enterprise, wider knowledge, may be found elsewhere; but for next arrangements pleasing to the eye and for graceful and even picturesque grouping, there is nothing to rival France. Already in some of our American cities we have taken a leaf out of the Gallic book. The removal of the black and repellent railings from parks and squares, the construction, and even the name "Boulevards," the furnishing of seats in open places of report, and the introduction of the finest flowers to the gaze of the prospect of the people these are points in which London, New York, and other great capitals, wisely imitate Paris. It is not, surely, an unlikely thing that eyes habitated to freshness, order and beauty in the streets, will more readily crave it in the home than will those whose doors open on unsightly heaps of dirt, or piles of decaying rubbish. The features of Paris have been so often described that it is useless to dwell on them. The only objects that strike one unpleasantly are the Hotel de Ville and the Tuileries, in ruins, a new street to run in front of the latter, of which the only portion undestroyed is that which the late emperor had restored for the Prince Imperial, which still stands—a hopeless organ to the minds of the Bonapartists of the restoration of the family to power. There are the same clean streets, the same level drives, the same rivulets of clear water each morning flowing down what is no longer a "gutter" (Salt Lake City has a like arrangement), the same clean looking working people in the blue blouses, and the same courteous civility as of old. Your coachman, starting in the evening, finds himself without a match to light his lamps; he stops at a stand, asks for one and receives it with as much polite ceremony as if giver and receiver were dukes. It is a little matter, but it is one in which the Anglo-Saxons have something to learn. The features of rural scenery in France have been less noticed than the attractions of Paris. Indeed French country life is hardly known at all to mere tourists, who pass hastily from great city to great city, many never stopping after they have quitted the capital. In contrast with English and American fields, there are practically no fences. Multitudinous farms lie alongside, with their crops disposed in narrow ribbons of wheat oats.

The almost unprecedented growth and development of San Francisco's trade and manufactures have attracted the attention of all persons who watch with admiring eye and unabated interest: the good of the common weal; but how much more has it interested us who have individualized the major part of these enterprises; while they have only known the aggregate and noted them as a whole. It being the purpose of this journal to stale truthfully and concisely the exact condition of this city's enterprises, their number and extent; it is with feelings of admiration we note the large and growing trade in Boots and Shoes. This business, like all other ones, has been developed surprisingly within the past few years, calling to its aid machinery that moves and acts with almost human knowledge, and which performs the labor of many men. Let us contrast the modern process to the old way, where every man, woman and child had to leave his or her measure at the cobbler's, wait at the lowest estimation a week for the completion of the work. Now, at any country store, a fit can be guaranteed for lady, gentleman or child, and of any quality, from 'stops' to extra fine. In our city retail stores may be found a full assortment of all kinds, wherein the customer can be audited, however fastidious, in quality, style and price. The wholesale establishments, from which the retail stores in city and country draw their supplies, form some of the most important business houses in this city. As a sample house of this kind, dealing strictly wholesale in Fine Calf Boots and Shoes, for men boys, youth and children, is the old and well known firm of C. & P. H. Tirrell & Co. No. 419 Clay street. They are manufacturers and importers of the above line of merchandise, and as such have been known in San Francisco for the past sixteen years. Their manufacturer is located at South Weymouth, Mass. The factory is a large one and contains the most modern improved labor-saving machinery, employing in addition from 200 to 250 people. As may be expected do... It is a little matter, but it is one in which the Anglo-Saxons have something to learn. The features of rural scenery in France have been less noticed than the attractions of Paris. Indeed French country life is hardly known at all to mere tourists, who pass hastily from great city to great city, many never stopping after they have quitted the capital. In contrast with English and American fields, there are practically no fences. Multitudinous farms lie alongside, with their crops disposed in narrow ribbons of wheat, oats, sanfoin, potatoes, turnips, hemp, and, in the South, vitles, with no boundary that catches the eye. The variety of color is great, and the effect to the eye is pleasing, but the arrangement suggests the smallness of the farms and the multiplicity of proprietors. Machinery does little, the hand does most. In a ride of nine hours by rail, in harvest, only one reaping machine was seen. One consequence of this arrangement is the utilization of every foot of the soil. Earl Russell once described Irish fences as earthen fortifications; along the road tops of which a carriage might be driven. There is an improvement in this respect, but there is room for more. No such waste occurs here. A man's wheat drops its heavy heads over the carrots of his neighbor, without a bit of unsightly or unessential soil between. The absence of cattle from the fields is a less agreeable feature. From Paris to Dijon, a run of over three hundred miles, in only two instances were cattle seen feeding. One could understand the heavy back-loads of grass, vine-leaves, and the like, being carried home by the women, who certainly take their full share, apparently, in the labors of the field. The cattle have to be provided for in their sheds. In a few cases flocks of sheep were seen in patches from which the crop had been removed, a man on one side, and a dog on the other defending the crops from them. Poor things! they looked embarrassed and uncomfortable, very like a company of Saxons making believe to be at their ease in the dreary interval that precedes a public dinner. One would rather see them ranging freely over the green expanse, as on the English downs, or the Scottish moors. If they think at all in France, they no doubt feel that, like bipeds in many places, "they are governed too much." One misses also the birds which give so much pleasure in an English landscape. Even a solemn and reverent crow in his spotless black, or a pair of magpies with their look of self-satisfied impudence, one prefers to the total absence of birds. Under the impression that they were mischievous, the departments once set a premium on the heads of small birds, and their extermination was effected. Then it was found out, too late, that in obtaining their "board" the feathered visitors paid for their "lodging" by destroying the insects. But the evil was done; and it is easier to drive a good thing away than to win it back. As we send cheese, bacon, preserved fruits, and have begun to send iron, beef, and cotton prints to Europe, so by and by we may able to export our surplus sparrows. The days in which safety could only be touched can be sufted, however fastidious, in quality, style and price. The wholesale establishments, from which the retail stores in city and country draw their supplies, form some of the most important business houses in this city. As a sample house of this kind, dealing strictly wholesale in Fine Calf Boots and Shoes, for men, boys, youth and children, is the old and well-known firm of C. & P. H. Tirrell & Co. No. 419 Clay street. They are manufacturers and importers of the above line of merchandise, and as such have been known in San Francisco for the past sixteen years. Their manufactory is located at South Weymouth, Mass. The factory is a large one and contains the most modern improved labor-saving machinery, employing in addition from 200 to 250 people. As may be expected, doing such a manufacturing business, their wholesale trade here is one of great magnitude, and reaches all parts of the Pacific Coast; hardly a hamlet, village or town, but what has dealt with the Messrs. C. & P. H. Tirrell & Co. It may be remarked, in this connection, that the California trade requires a better class of boots and shoes than the general trade of the east. We paid a visit to the wholesale house of this firm a few days ago, and found a large establishment containing an equally large stock of morn's boys, yenth's and children's shoes and shoes. While their specialty is the finer grades they make all sizes and qualities at the lowest market prices. The members of the firm are Henry Edwards, San Francisco; C. Tirrellt, South Weymouth; Mass.; and P.H.Tirrellt, Boston, Mass. We are under obligation to Mr.H.Edwards for information, who is the representative of the San Francisco House. Further comment on this establishment is needless; so well is it known not only for the universal high quality and excellence of their goods, but for business property and accommodation; and if what we have said shall fulfill our duty as a chronicler of San Francisco's enterprises, we have only done our duty.-S.P.F., Commercial. Leefe & Co.'s California Yeast Cakes. Wherever these Yeast Cakes have been used they have given perfect satisfaction. We warrant them to do all that the circular or printed directions claim for them. They received the premium at the last State Fair over all competitors. The grains and vegetables from which these Cakes are made are selected with the greatest care, and being manufactured at Sacramento, we shall always furnish them fresh. From recent discovery in their preparation, Mr. Leefe has been enabled to quicken the action of the yeast growth so as very greatly to add to their convenience,and making them a better substitute for the Vienna Yeast than any yet introduced to public favor. They are intended to take the place very largely of Yeast Powders,and at the same time to add to the flavor of all articles in which they are used. Adams McNell & Co., Saramento, Cal.
