THE HERALD 1YIT A5D HUMOE. "When a man gets tight the devil generally gets loose. Many pastors would rather preach to empty heads than to empty pevrs. It is a time-honored custom In Quin cy, Fla,, to salute a nevrly married couple by firing a cannon. This is to remind thoe present '.that the battle of life has fairly begun. - - So many societies for the promotion of things are established that Johnnie wants to know why somebody doesn't Eet up a society for the promotion or oys In school without making them study so. "Will you hare cream and glucose In your coffee?" is the question now propounded from J.he maternal end of the breakfast table. "Yes," answers pater-familias, "and pass the oleomar garine." A little boy, watching the burning of the school house until the novelty of the thing had Ceased, started down the street, saving: "I'm glad the old1 thing burned down ; I didn't have my jogfry lesson, uo how." The Burlington JIawkeye remarks that "as you travel around the country you are more aud more impressed with the conviction that the chief end of man is to paint patent medicine signs ou the fences." . . - - . The girls in his native village were lighting the candles in. the front par lors auil pulling down the blinds and the Excelsior boy reported that "the Shades of night were falling fast." An Eniflish tourist at a Xew Zea land restaurant, having finished his meal, thinks ho will try some dessert : "Waiter, bring me a piece of mince pie." Waiter, apologetically : "Il'aint got no mince pie, sir; missionaries is so thin this season we only biles 'em for soup." v The English language i 9 rich in syn onymous terms. A mechanic in search of work is "out of a job" ; a clerk in the same predicament is "disengaged," and a professional man similarly placed is "at leisure." The mechanic "gets work," the clerk "connects" him self with some establishment, and the professional man "resumes" practice. A very good hit was made yesterday morniug by one of the defeated candi dates in Thursday night's primary election. A gentleman approached him with, "Well, Mr. , how do you feel?" "Well," said he, "I feel, I suppose, pretty much as Lazarus did." "As Lazarus did?"" "Why, yes," said he, "Lazarus was licked by dogs, ad so was 1." Yonkers Gazette. Ruined by Indorsing Other Men's Lia- bill ties. Women' more frequently commit suicide from disappointment in love, aud men from loss of money, than from any other cause, which might in dicate that their sex is sentimental, and that ours is mercenary. The num ber of men -who have destroyed them selves during the past year for finan cial reasons is very noticeable. One can hardly read newspapers from any part of the country without observing a report of some such c:is, and it is remarkable what a proportion of men have been ruined by indorsing for their friends. One of the latest in stances is that of Henry Schaefer, a - florist at "Los Angeles, Cal., who shot himself through the head in a summer house. He left a number of letters, in which he said that, as he was growing old and4was heavily in debt, he feared that he could not support himself much longer, and he wanted, therefore, to quit the world. He is represented as a warm-hearted, generous man, who had nee possessed a handsome proper ty, but who had lost it by indorsing for friends, often in better circum stances than himself. He had hardly means enough to defray his funeral expenses. Of how many men this is the history! The misfortune is that most of those persuaded to indorse are kind, sympathetic fellows, who are re duced to poverty and despair through their very kindness ana sympathy; While men hard and selfish go through the world prospering and prosperous, and dio of faultless old age. When men indorse for one another in the way of business, it is a commercial transac tion, and is so understood. The pros- Eect of failure and loss of money must e takon into account. But when a man indorses for another without any equivalent,; .without' any hope or thought of reciprocity, merely for ac commodation, as it is termed, and is obliged to take up the paper he has indorsed and surrender his property to such end, it is bitter enough. . KelatlTe to French Matrimony. London He bo. . . ' - -j "Figures, said the late Robert Peel, "you can prove anythiug-by figures." M Legrand, accordingly, Jhas -no diffi culty in., proving : that; marriage :. in France is not altogether-as it should be; had it been so his work, Le JSIa riage. ht.'Mxurs en France.1 would pever have. been written. '. , . ; The fact 'wbioh makes thoughtful Frenchmen anxious is that, while tho marriage rate is not lower, nay, is even slightly higher, than it was, the birth rate is alarmingly low, ad gets lower, instead of rising! There "were Actual ly more births at the beginning of the century, with a population of only 27,000,000,' than there were in 18G0. Between 1800 and 1815 the number of children per marriage averaged 4.24. It sank gradually till 1860, averaging only 3.03 for the years between 1855 and 1860; between 1860 and 1865 it rose to 8.08. Tantalizing, as, indeed, such tables generally are, this particu lar table ends with 1865, and we are left to M. Legrand's assertion that the decrease is still a" sad fact, and to an other table which shows that the births for every hundred inhabitants have averaged during the last forty years 2.62. The worst year was 1871, when, owing to the war, the average sank to 2.26. In 1872 it rose to its highest, 2.67. In 1877 it was 2.55, the same as in 1850. Of marriages the French average for the last ten years is 88 for every hun dred inhabitants. It was 60 in 1870, 72 in 1871' 93 (its highest) in 1872, when the war and its results were well-nigh over. As with us, the mat rimonial barometer i3, from year to year, a delicate test' of the national prosperity or depression. There is no complaint, however, of the small num ber of marriages ; it lias risen since 1800, between which year and 1850 the average was not quite 79. Nor does France in this respect stand badly as compared with other countries. There are actually more marriages per cent, in France than in England. Oswald Puckeridge, a retired publi can of Minster, England, lias been sen tenced to six weeks' hard labor for causing the death of a valuable dog. The prisoner painted the dog all over with the Liberal and Conservative colors, and the animal was poisoned through liking the paiut off. The prisoner gave notice of appeal. A bar of pold has been brought to Halifax, N. 8., from the recently dis covered lead at the Moose Kivcr gold mines. It weighs thirty-four ounces eleven ponnv weights and ninety-eight grain, is valued at $350, and repre sents a hundred and thirty-six days labor of five mcu from tweuty tons ot quartz. The first volume of Kossuth's Mem oirs, to appear simultaneously In En glish, German and Magyar, will show, it is said, that Napoleon III., ou sum moning him to Paris in 1859, offered him naturalization and a senatorsliip. While refusing these, Kossuth agreed to use his influence in favor of France and Sardinia in the impending war, whereby he offended Mazzini, Victor Hugo ami the French Republicans. '. A canary bird had quite an extend ed trip among the mail bags on the Maine Central Railroad. It was in a mall wicker cage and in some way got mixed up with the mail, so that it was placed in one of the bags with a lot of papers. This bag was thrown off at Brunswick, and the bird went to "Wiscasset and returned to Brunswick again, where It was taken out unin jured and as lively as ever. A third-of-a-ceutury plant is at tracting much attention at Greenville, Mis. - Thirty-three years ago a lady, now living in Greenville, was married, and this plant was in bloom and some of its flowers graced the wedding breakfast. The-; owner has carefully tended the 'plant' ever sinco, and it has burst into flower for the first time siuce the wedding day. r Tcwfik, the new Khedive of Egypt, is as economical as his sire was ex travagant, lie discovered not long ago that his venerable father had ear ned off a certain collection of coins valued at $80,000, which had been purchased with state money, and the Khedive intends to rebuke this want of economy by placidly subtracting the item from his lather's allowance during the next twelve months. A hardware merchant of Centre ville ILL. more than fifty years of age, visited Providence to deposit $,000 in one of the banks, but instead went on a "spree," and falling into the hands of gamblers' was fleeced out of $6,000 before he was rescued from their nanus by the police.
