There i, liover, an opposite extreme, luto whith another very lilirerent clss of peopln is in ilsngt r of falling, ami liich, vulitle winning a kind of sympathy, from Its utter antipathy to nil trirViness ami wire pulllni', Is yet to ha regarded as a ileplora lile public calamity. We allude to tho tin ntlllucnrss iifRtxdnnd capable men and women to assmne positions of trust and im portanee to which they may he nppolnlul, It may he thought this Is so rare n ilefcc'i anil forms so refreshing n contract to t!'e eager feverlshncss of ollii'C-'iuntlnjr, tlmt it neils but little probation". Yet this Is not thecie. It Is surely quite us important that till places of trutt b fillou with uit able ofH ers as that unsuitable ones lie Wept out. Imtad it Is tmly iv the firmer com Ing to ps, ilint tho latter can bi po.sihle. 8n whenever the riiiht man ileellnes, IVoni any cause, to fill the place lor which his talents i.r education or natlvo qualities pe culiarly fit him, ho inevitably contributes a large share towards putting the wrong in.m In. Probably but ft w persons realize that this is so. To decline an honor seems so natural a thing to a modest person, so mere ly negative en act, so utterly innocent of any ill intention, that it cannot Involve any responsibility, or be the cauo of any 111 In tention, or be the cause of any Injurious effect. Yet, nhen we reflect that, to one person well fitted for an honorable position, there are probably a hundred eager aspir ants who are not at all qualified to discharge its duties, wo shall not see that the turning point which throws the work nlraost cer tainly into incompetent hands. True, the lack of competence is the usual plea made by those who shrink from assuming respon sibility ; but, unfortunately, it is those who are best qualified wbn usually feel this luck, while the careless and unthinking, eager on ly for the emoluments or the eclat of the work they sue for, are loud iu proclaming their general abilities and special fitnes. Such modesty, then, however pleasing to look upon, should give way before the judg ment of others, and learn to distrust Its own convictions, rather than suQer them to im peril a good cause. Many other reasons are also urged for re fusing positions of trust. Want of leisure, pressing dutic", the tlianklessnens of ofiice, its publicity, its criticism, oftentimes its un deserved reproach and censure. It is true that such objections are often based on facts. Valuable public work bv no means receives all the honor and gratitude that it deserves. Self-sacrifice is sometimes rewarded with ob- liquy, and earnest effort with indifference or noirn. But what then ? Is there not anoth er side to be realized ? Is not all this effort and self denial, and even suffering for the good of the community, a means of paying a large dbt which Is due to society ? Ar dent civilization taught the strong to use the weak and tho foolish as stepping stones to further power and wisdom and glory for themselves, but the civilization which is born of love andcharity teaches that strong! h and wisdom, and talents, and power, and ed ucation, and money, and leisure, and every other privilege, should he freely offered as stepping stones on which those less favored may climb to heights which would other wise be wholly inaccessible. All or any of these advantages are so many obligations to use them for the general good. "Noblce oblige'' is as truo as it ever was in feudal times, and bears even a higher application. If each one who possesses auy good thing is bound to t-ec for himselfthat it is doing its reasonable work, surely, when his fel low men, conscious of their need of it, com bine to ask him to ue it for their benefit, he should have grave and weighty rea-ons, indeed, to justify him in declining. It is no longer the honor that is done to him that should be uppermoit in his mind, but the service that is due to them. Tho first he might resign, but the latter he dare not. if he would be faithful to his trust. There are some with health, talents, culture, taste judgment and wisdom, who in most things seem to have a loyal and generous nature, who shrink from no reasonable demands koa their puree, who express sympathy with every worthy enterprise,and who yet decline the very means of doing the highest good In their power, by reiusing to fill positions of public responsibility. They wish well to schools, churches, hospitals, libraries, city governmeuts, Stale interests they have their own opinions, and souud ones, on the state of the country and the various ques tions of the day ; they weigh political par ties and their respective merits and duties ; tbey hope to see good and true men in high ofiice, aud selfish and mean ones removed and yet when they are urged to take an ac tive part in these things, to put their pow era out at interest In the service of their city, their State or their country, to accept responsible positions for which they are eminently fitted, they shrink back into re tirement and plead inability. Does this not seem altogether loyal and true ? Does not the whole future of our country depend largely upon the character and ability of those who are to lead its enterprise? And if those who are its natural leaders sit down supinely to watch the progress of events, in stead of bravely rising to guide and direct them, can they avoid the responsibility of having left it to drift into the hands of in competence, recklessness and selfishness T Let all who are disposed thus to bury their opportunities and their energies In the re tirement of private life, against the advice of good and wise men, reflect ou the conse quences of such a step. Let them remera ber that it is no mere honor, but a serious call to duties and responsibilities from which they have no right to shrink: an onnortuni ty to pay a debt which grows naturally out of everv endowment of nature and everr ad vantage of circumstance, and which is as much a debt of honor as any which money can discharge, aud one which tbey should Ciju&uy bvuiu vu icpuuiaic.

Long before Columbus' discovery, proba bly early In the Chrtstaln eta, civilization began lit America, l-'lve distinct native etvlllzttintis are known to have existed : one In Peru, one in Yucatan, one. In Mexi co, one In New Mexico, Arizona and Color ado, and one In the valleys nf the Mississip pi and Ohio rivers. The latter were mound builders, who worked the copper mines nf lake Superior and worshipped tho American eagle, The New Mexico race we call llio Pueblos, or town builders, and toward tho cloe of their career the (Miff-dwellers. When I lie whites came tu tills continent the Peruvians and the civilizations of Yuca tan and Mexico were flourishing ; the Uliff dwellers bad nearly dlsappiared, and the Mound-builders bad been swept away and replaced by barbarous northern hordes, hiving In a moist land rich In wood, they built of this mattrial, and must of tlitlr works perished with them ; hut the New Mexican people occupied a dry, ilevatid ami barreu country abounding in plateaus and cliffs, where agriculture, requiring Irri gation could he carried on only along tho borders of the few and wldely separatid streams, or where water could bo restored in reervnlrs. The region was and is n ties ert,l'i which settlements mark oases. Where ever the Pueblos cnuld cultivate tho ground they built towns of stone or sun-burnt brick, the njly material at hand In tlil nearly woodless hind. They raised cotton, corn, pumpkins, beans an.l other vegetablis, had domestic aniin.is,and were quite ailvati ed In weaving, pittery making, and other primitive arts. At one lime they occupied every available sp.it in eastern Arizma.New Mexico and southern Colonub ; but the natural conditions of climate and tnpogra phy forbade that any great accumulations of wealth should repay the endless patience of their toil. A hire subsistence was all that could be wrung from the desert land. When, therefore, the northern tribes be gan to crowd down upon the scattered set tlements, these wild men of the chase, who, having neither property or fixed homes, bad evtry thing to gain and nothing to lose in the struggle, slowly wore out the strength of the more civilized race. While the ser vices of every man, woman and child must havo been needed in agriculture to secure a living, a large proportion nf the main pop ulation were in arms resisting the increasing excursions of nomads. Weakened by bat tle and famine, the gentler lace, who had treasured and developed tho sacred germ of human progress, abandoned their cities in valleys and took refure iu ledges of almot inaccessible dill's. Here they built them selves stone houses, not to bo approached except by ladder1, and supported themselves on what could be raised along streams at the foot of the rocks. All this transpired before the fifteenth century. When the Spaniards first penetrated intu New Mexico, they heard fabulous tales ot seven inhabited cities, full of gold and nil ver, perched on the summit of a high rock. they vainly endeavored to cross tho deserts separating them from these so-called cities Cibola. Almost nothing was known of them until a United States government ex pedition, overcoming great obstaclts, en camped finally at the foot of the escarped plateau ou whoso top stand the seven Mo- qui Wwni. They found a civilized agricul tural people, clad in cotton and woolen gar ments of their own weaving, engaged in cul tivating maize, vegetables and fruit, but al so men of the chase, and thoroughly war like. This is the only surviving rcmant sf that once-powerful people, who, driven from the valleys to the cliffs, perished at last by the hands of wild tribes we are now exterminat ing. Albany Journal. COLOIiADO MINERS. Tho small mines of Colorado aro worked by miners who live alone or in couples "partners," they call themselves. Each couple occupies a cabin, and cook, wash, and keep house for themselves. A coires pondentof the lioston Journal describes one nf theso cabins built on the step side of Prospect Mountain. The house consists of a stone cabin, gen erally built into the hill, or under the lee of some huge rock. The r-mf is made of lim ber cut uear by, and inos'ly covered with a layer of gravel or clay. The mountain side is so steep that the few leet of ground about the doors of the cabins have to be walled up and leveled to make room for a threshold step. The whole arrangement looks as if a good wind or a slight jar of the ground might send it sliding off and down a half a mile into the ravine below. A cabin has but one room ; sometimes a window and a door, but mostly the window is iu the door j two benches at one side, and a large stone fire-place opposite, a few shelves foi dishes and for storing goods, a rude pine-table, and ono or two chairs or stools. A little shelf in one corner, screened from du-t and smoke by a hanging curtain, usual ly contains a few hooks and papers. The books ale mostly novels, tales of lovo and romance, with sometimes a ecientifio work ou mineralogy or geology. You never find them without a pen and ink-bottle, and often tho men in spate hours are engaged iu writing. You are not to sup tiose by their rough exterior and Mirround ings that these men are illiterate, that they arc mere machines of bone and muscle, cal culated to do so much work for so much money. The miners nf this country, as a class, Rre men of good, vigorous mind ; they have brains, and have to use them ; iu their daily occupation, a great deal of calculation and thoughtful planning is required in all their operations. To misjudge the weight of a banging rock, or the consistency of a bank of loose clay, might bring death and disaster as a consequence. Given ur nv Doctoiis.
