A Itlvcr Hnl whli Stone Wnlls a Mile In

Major Powell, iu hi thrillinpf storirs
of thn ctuiyoim of Colormlo, in iS'rribner's
Monthly, Kicnks of ouo of thorn ni
follows :
The walls were now more Hmu a mile
in lii-iglit. Stniul on thn Ronth stops of
the Treasury building in Washington
nnd look down I'eiiiiKylvmiia avenue to
tho Capitol pnrk, and imngino cliffs ex
tomling to that altitude, and you will un
derstand what I menu. Or, Ptand at
Canal street in Now York and look up
Broadway to Grace Church, and you
have about tho distance; stand at Lake
street bridge iu Chicago and look down
to tho union depot, and you have it
again.
A thousand feet of this is up through
granite crogw, then slopes and perpen
dicular cli:l"n risii ouo above the other to
the summit. Tho gorge is black and
narrow below, red and grny and ilaring
above, undcrags and angular projections
on walls which, cut in manv places by
sue canyons, seem to be a vast wilder
ness of rocks. Down through these
gloomy depths wo glided, always listen
ing; lor the mud waters kept up their
roar ; always watching and peering
ahead for tho narrow canyon was wind
ing and the river was closed so that wo
could see but a few hundred yards, and
what might he below wo knew not. We
strained our ears for warning of tho
falls and watched for rocks, or stopped
now uml then in tho bay of a recess to
admire tho gigantic scenery; and ever
iv) we went, there was Rome new pinnacle
or tower, somo crag or peak, soino dis
tant view of the upper plateau, somo
deep, narrow sido canyon, or some
strangely shaped rock. On wo went,
through this solemn, mysterious way.
The river was very deep, the canyon very
narrow and still obstructed, . so that
there was no steady (low of tho stream,
Imt tho waters wheeled, and rolled, and
boiled, and wo were scarcely ublo to de
termine where we could go with greatest
safety. Now the boat was carried to the
right, perhaps close to the wall, again
she was shot into thn stream ami dragged
over to the other side, where, caught iu
n whirlpool, sho spun about like a chip.
We could neither land nor run as we
pleased; tho boats wero entirely un
manageable; now one, now another was
ahead, each crew looking after its own
safety.
We came to another rapid; two of the
boats ran it perforce; one succeeded in
landing, but there was no foothold by
which to make a portage, and she was
pushed out again into the stream; the
next minute n great re flex wave rilled the
open compartment; she wa3 water-logged,
and drifted at th mercy of the waters.
Breaker alter breaker rolled over her,
mid one tossed her deck downward. The
men wore thrown out, but they clung to
the boat, and she drifted down alongside
of us, nnd wo were able to catch her.
She was soon bailed out and the men were
aboard once more, but the oars were lost,
their place being supplied by a pair from
the "Emma Dean."
Clouds wero playing in thn canyon
that day. Sometimes they rolled down
in great masses, tilling the gorge with
gloom; sometimes they hung above from
wall to wall, covering the canyon with a
roof of impending storm, and wo could
peer long distances up and down this
canyon corridor, with its cloud roof
owrhend, its walls of black granite, and
its river bright with the sheen of broken
waters. Then a gust of wind would
sweep down a side gulch and make a rift
in the clouds, revealing the bluo heavens,
nud a stream of sunlight poured in.
Again the clouds drifted away into the
distance and hung around crags and
peaks, and pinnacles, and towers, and
walls, covering them with a mantle that
lifted from time to time and set them
nil in sharp relief. Then baby clouds
crept out of side canyons, glided around
points, and crept back again into more
distant gorges. Other clouds stretched
in strata across tho canyon, with inter
vening vista views to cliffs and rocks be
yond. Thou tho rain came down. Little
rills wero formed rapidly above: thse
soon grew into brooks, and the brooks i
into creeks, which tumbled over tho
walls in innumerable cascades, adding
their wild music to the roar of tho river.
When the rain ceased, tho rills, brooks
nnd oiveks ran dry. The waters that
fall during the rain on these steep rocks
lire gathered at once into tho river; they
could scarcely bo poured in more sud
denly if some vast spout rau from the
clouds to the stream itself. When a
utorm bursts over the canyon a side
frulch is a dangerous place, for a sudden
flood may come, and tho inpouriug water
raise tho river so as to drowu the rocks
before your very eyes.

To get good farm help cheap nnd an

House
Tlio House iu Committee of the Whole con
sidered tho Tariff bill.
Mr. Durchard, of Illinois, said he bad no ob
jection to see the tax ou tea and coffee reim
oBcd, as it was equally distributed, and every
dollar collected went into tho treasury, lie
also did not object to the increased tax on
whisky and tobacco, nue! estimated that it j
would' yield $30,U00,000. Ho did, however, oh- I
ject to the restoration of tho teu por cent, ou I
certain manufactured goods, and argued that j
it would disturb nil tho interests of the country
while it would only produce $'li,0liu,0i)0.
Mr. Banning, ci' Ohio, opposed tho hill, and
particularly the proposed increased tax on
whisky, which he thought would have the ef
fect of increasing smuggling aud illicit distill
ing, aud so reduce the revenue. He stated
that the revenue was greater when the tax was
70 cents a gallon, than when it was $2.00.
Mr. Chittenden, of New York, considered the
bill erroneous, and characterized tho fifth sec
tion as a bold and glaring fraud, liko the '"lead
statue " business.
Mr. Cox, of New York, iu his speech iu
apposition to the bill, stated that tho people of
the country had paid $7,000,00i',()00 in taxes in
the past two years', which amounted to about
live per cent, per annum ou our wholo taxablo
valuation. lie quoted Gov. Tilucu, of New
York, as his authority for saying that every
twei.ty years there is assessed for taxes a sum
equal' to the entire assessed wealth of tho
country.
Iu lsCl spirits were tax' d twenty cents per
gallon, and tho receipts were $28.431, 0h0 ; anil
w hen a vear later the tax was increased to $1.50.
the receipts fell off to $10,t00,0t 0. In lstifi
tho tax was raised to $2.00, and the receipts
ran up to $29,000,000, aud iu 1807, under t lie
same tax, dropped to $28,000,000, and iu 1SGS
went down to if 13,41!1,00J. Then the folly of
a high taxation was seen and the tax reduced
to titty cents, and Ihut year the receipts wore
doubled, amounting to $S3,285,(iC0. In 1870
tlio same tax gave $38,0ti(i,i.0o ; but a rise to
seventy cents iu 1871 gave but $30,01)0,000.
Mr. Niblack, of Indiana, had thought for
years that the tariif should bo levised ; but
opposed this bill now, as be could not see the
need of increased taxation at this time.
Mr. Beck, of Kentucky, thought that addi
tional revenuo was required, but argued against
the increased tax on whisky aud lobucco, and
denounced the whole bill as a failure.
Mr. Ward of Illinois, thought the increase
of tax on whisky would be an injury to legiti
mate distillers, inasmuch as it would "encourage
illicit distilling.
Mr. Garfield wanted to tax whisky eighty-five
cents per gallon.
The House took up the bill for the improve
ment of the mouth of the Mississippi river.
The bill authorizes James B. Lads, of ftt.
Louis, and his associates to construct such jet
ties ai-d other auxilliary works as to create and

southwest pass of the Mississippi river and the
Gulf of Mexico. They are to receive $8,0i 0,
000 for constructing such works and obtaining
a depth of thirty feet iu the channel, and
$150,000 a year during twenty years while such
depth is maintained.
After considerable discussion as to whether
the work ought to be done by array engineers
or private individuals, an amendment by Mr.
Thompson, of Pennsylvania, was adopted,
striking out that portion of the bill which di
rects tho Secretary of War to construct tho
work iu ease of the dofault of ( apt. Eads.
The bill was then passed without a division.
While the Tariff bill was under consideration.
Mr. Roberts, of New York, from the committee
on ways aud means, moved to amend section
three, which relates to stamps on matches, by
making the repeal take effect ou the 1st of
May. Also requiring the Secretary of the
Treasury to redeem the sumps on baud uu
used. Roth amendments were agreed to.
Mr. Ward, ot Illinois, moved to strike out
the third section, aud sent up to bo read a com
munication from manufacturers of matches, in
favor of maintaining the stamp-tax on matches,
as being a protection against foreign manufac
turer, lie sttii that no one fol( the burden, of
the tax that It yiolded H, 800,000 In three

The motion was agreed to, and tax remains.

count of a leg or arm which is wholly disabled
aud cannot be rendered serviceable by any
mechanical appliance shall be entitled to re

portant of which was cue assessing a tax on
incomes at tho rattfof three por cent, on all
incomes between $3,000 and ? 10,000, and five

After tlio committee had leported tho bill
aud amendments to tho House, Sir. DaweB ad
dressed tho Chair, and after stating that it
was necessary to provide for the deficit in the
Treasury, spoke of tho impossibility of framing
a bill which would satisfy all sections aud in

YiiiPtrar Bitlors.
Dr. J. Wnlkor, a regular practicing
physician of California, has conferred a
priceless boon upon mankind, by tho
introduction of a " Hitters'' compounded
from herbs exclusively, which nitiy be
truly said to bo superseding idl others,
and is becoming a bitter dose, indeed for
tho charlatans and (juacks, on account of
its immense sale and universal popular
ity. Not only are these Vinegar Bitters,
as ho culls them, an invaluable tonic and
alterative, but they are acknowledged as
a standard medicine, and tho astonishing
rapidity with which they euro disease
hitherto declared incurable, seems almost
incredible. After having been carefully
tested, they are kept on hand iu thou
sands of households, and used for any
and every form of disease, many relying
upon them iu preference 'to tho most
celebrated physicians. They have bo
comea recognized "family remedy," and
properly so. Com.
The Hard Times in Xew York.
Dcspitn nil tlio croaking about linnl
times, 8iiyn n 'orrc'Honili;iit, Xew York
is very gorgeous this winter. The turn

ns liriUmut ns ever, nnd cvtm moro ro.
Sales of extravagantly costly furniture
aro ns frequent ns ever, ana tho great
jewelers mid expensive dress peoplo aro
doing moro than their usual business.
Thn fact is, tlio society woman in New
York refused to recognize tho existence
of; hard times. Sho considers it tho
duty of the mnn who undertakes tho con
tract of supporting her to furnish her
with what she wants jivt as freely ouo
year as another. If tho poor fellow
pleads embarrassment nnd bad business,
she answers, " What is that to me i I
know nothing about your horrid stocks.
I do know that I want thnt diamond
necklace, and will have it." Aud she
generally gets it for several reasons. A
man always btuuds in awe of a very
handsome nnd very fashionable woman,
and besides a great ninny New Yorkers
luive discovered that it is a very good
thing to havo $5l),000 to $100,0(10 in
diamonds and such things, which belong
to his wife, to fall back upon. This is
tho secret of verv much of the extrava
gance that is seen iu tho public places of
tlio city. Tho poor feel tho hard times,
nnd those supposed ta bo rich niny nlso,
but tho latter dou't hIiow it if they do.
The theaters nre filled nightly; the
parties were never more brilliant 01 ex
pensive. Of course smashes without
number will occur, but they are having
a good time while they enn. This is the
very center of vanity fair.

Cure.
RocnrBTEB, N. T., Jan. 18th, 1874.
a V. Tierce, M. ., Buffalo, N. Y.i
7;eir Sir1 have suffered from catarrh In an
aggravated fnrm for abouttwelve years aud for
several years from bronchial trouble. Tried
many doctors and things with no lasting ben
tit. " In May, 1872. becoming nearly worn out
with excessive editorial labors on a paper In
Now York city, I was attacked with bronchitis
in a severe form, suffering almost a total logs
of voice. I returned homo hero, but had been
homo only two weeks when I was complefc ly
prostratod with hemorrhages from tho lungs',
having four sovere bleeding spells within two
weeks, and first three inside of nine days, in
the September following, I improved sufficient
ly to be able to be abonf, though in a very fee
bio state. My bronchial trouble remained
and the catarrh was tenfold worse than before.
Every effort for relief seemed fruitless. 1
seemed to bo losing ground daily. I continued
in this feeble s'ato, raising blood almost dailv
untd about the first of March, 1873, whin I
bneamo so bad as to be entirely confined to the
llouso. A friend suggested onr remedies.
Hut 1 was extremely skeptical that they would
do nin good, as I bad lost all heart in remedies,
and began to look upon all medicines and doe
tors with disgust. However, I obtained ono of
your circulars, and read it carefully, from
which I rame to the conclHsion that yon under
stood your business at least. I finally obtained
a quantity of Dr. Sago's Catarrh" Remedy,
your Golden Medicnl Discovery and Pellets,
and commenced their vigorous use according
to directions. To my surprise I sonn began to
improve. The Diseoveiy and Pellets in a
short time brought ont a severe eruption, which
continued for soveral week'. I felt much bet
ter, my appotito improved, and I gained 111
strength and flesh. In three months every
vestige of the catarrh was gone, the bronchitis
had nciii'lv disappeared, had no cough what
ever, and I had entirely coased to raise blood j
nnd, contrary to the expectation of my friends,
the cure has remained permanent. I have I ad
no more hemorrhages from the lungs, and am
entirely free from catarrh, from which I bad
suffered so much and so long. The debt of
gratitude I owe for the Mossing I hav received
at your hands know s no bounds. I am thorough
ly satisfied, from my experience, that your
medicines will master the worst forms of "that
odious disease catarrh, as well as throat and
lung diseases. I have recommended them to
very many and Bhall ever Bpeak in their praise.
Gratefully yours,
Wm. H. SrENcBtt.

treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful Influence upon tlieso various or
gans, is essentially necessary. There
is no cathartic for tlio purpose equal to
Dr. J. Walker's Vixkhar Hitters,
as they will speedily romovo tho dark
