THE HEimta. Jennie &an?r Forty Tears Ago. The Jenny Cramer mystery ! in some points n repetition of tho Mury Rogers case, which is ono of tho mem orable tragedies of New York- Forty years have elapse I since it occurred, and yet it holds its place among the mysteries of crime. Mary Rogers, like Jenny Cramer, wa a pretty cigar girl. She tended store for John Andirson, who kept the finest establishment of the kind on Broadway. Mary was gen erally attractive, but it was uot known that she had any special suitor. She llred with her mother, who was a poor widow, dependent on her daughter's earnings. One Sunday afternoon in the summer of 1819 she left her' homo and never returned. Some persons who knew her said they saw her in company with a man dressed in naval uniform. This was tho last seen of her alive. Her disappearance was re ported to the policy, but noimmediate clue could be obtained. Four days af terward, howevi -, a nude corpse w.us found floating in tho waters of tho Hudson near the Jersey s'loro. and this was identified ua the missing cigar girl. It was evi lent that she had been foully dealt wit.'r, but this was all that could be ascertained. A yawl boat, which was also found floating idly in the bay, was no doubt connected with the tragic affair, but on this point there was no certainty. The police mado every possible search, but it was of no avail. Tho old mother dioJ broken hearted, and years have passed away, throwing no light upon the mystery, whose solution has now passed beyond hope; and hence the sad tale of Mary Rogers holds a prominent place among the bloody secrets of New York. A Sporting Parson. A curious story is told by Land and Water of an English parson of tho sporlincr school: A marriage ceremony had been fixed; bnt it wa a fine Sep tember morning, the clergyman loTed his gun, and so, forgetful of tho mo mentous knot be was to bo the instru ment of tj ing, he sauntered forth into tho stubbles of his glebe. He had not been out long before he got a shot; but scarcely had he done so when he heard the well-known voice of the par ish olerk shouting after him, "Sir, tho young people be ready, and be at tho church a-wsi$ting.n "Bless me," skid the old gentleman, 'I forgot; I'll bo there in a moment." He hastily picked up tho partridge he - had shot, and putting it in his pocket, he hurried to the church. In tho midst of the ceremony, some thing was seen to be fluttering under his surplice; and in a moment, to tho astonishment of every body, out from iU folds flew the partridge, for it had been moro stunned than killed. "O, dear! there goes tho bird," in voluntarily exclaimed tho vicar. "It's all right, sir," replied tho clerk; -Sho can't get out, and she's gone in tho Squire's pew." Blistering Horses. Philip Bloch. of Toniea, 111., had a couple of horses sick with a prevailing distemper. He was advised to trv blis tering as a remedy, by wetting tho horses' legs from the knees down with kcrsosene oil and setting it on lire. Ho tried tho experiment in the stable. Tho legs of both horses flashed in an instant, and the animals began to dance for pain. The inflammable oil blazed up with fnrj-, sotting fire to tho Btnblo and burning it. to the ground. With great difficulty Mr. Block man aged to get the horses out, and by hard work several haystacks near by were pulled down and saved from de struction. A Southern negro, an ex-slave hired a liel 1 from his old master to cultivate, ho to receive one-third and tho master two-third3 of the crop. Tho old negro was honest, but not up in arithmetic. Tho field yielded two loads, both of which he put in his master's crib, and reported to the astonished landlord: "Dar is no third, sah; do land am too poor to produce the third, sah." JRuIifTTor leepnr3of Sheep. 1. Keep sheep dry under toot with litter. This is ev -n mora necessary than rooting them. Never let them stand or lie in mud or water. 2. Take up lamb bucks early in sum mer, and keep them until December 1 following, when they may bo turned out 3- Count every day. 4. Begin graining with the greatest care, and use the smallest quantity at first. 5. If a ewe loses her lamb, milk her daily for a few days, and mix a little nlimi with her salt. 6. Let no hos eat with the sheep, by no means, in the spring. 7. Givo tho lambs a little mill-feed iu timo of weaning. 8. Never frighten sheep if possible to avoid it. 9. Sow rye for weak ones in cold weather, if you can. 10. Separate all weak or thin or sick from those strong in the fall, and give them special care. 11. If any sheep is hurt catch it at once, and wash the wound, and if it is fly-time apply spirits of turpenlinn daily, and always wash with something healing. If a limb is broken bind it with splinters tightly, loosening as limb swells. 12. Keep a number of good bells on the sheep.' 13. Do uot let the sheep spoil wool with chaff or burs. 14. Cut tag-locks in early spring. 15. For scours give pulverized alum in wheat bran; prevent by taking great care in changing dry for green food. 16. If one is lame, examine tho foot, clean out between the hoof, pare tho hoofs if unsound, and apply tobacco with blue vitriol, boiled in a little water. 17. Shear at once any sheep com mencing to shed its wool, unless tho weather is too severe, and save careful ly tho pelt of any sheep that dies. 18. Have at least one good work by you to refer to. This will bo money in your pocket. Must Take Lower Prioes In tho three fiscal years ended the 80th June last the United States ex ported breadstuff to the value of $749, 480,445, or say 150,000,000 in round figures. The greatest export as regards quantity has been in tho year just closed, but the highest in valuo was in tho preceding jear, so that tho chief effect of the rather better harvest in England as in parts of the continent last year was a lowering in prices. United States farmers obtained less for their grain, but, as European stocks were very low last year, they sold moro at the reduced price. This year stocks are still low, but the harvest in most parts of Europe will bo earlier, and in tnany of better quality. Wo should therefore expect to see the UnitedStates compelled fr take lower prices still for their crop, and probably they will sell a smaller quantity as welL Tho enor mous figures of tho past three years serve, however, to explain in great part the wonderful expansion in their wealth and productive energy.

Some nionk"ys are pre-eminently a sylvan race, and never abandon th. ir native forests. "Each tribe or family has its own particular district into which individuals of other tribes or spocies are nover allowed to intrude, the whole commjtnitv nniting promptly to repel any agression f this nature, either upon their territory or their in dividual rights. They are high'y gre garious, never leave the recesses of tho forest, generally take up their quarters in the vicinity of a running stream, and seldom approach tho habitations of men. It is this spirit of unio.i and mu tual defence which prompts the monk eys to collect around travellers, anl, by their chattering, grimaces, and v-ry other means in their power, endeavor to prevent them from intruding into the little territory which they regard as their especial property." Sometimes, indeed, regular pitched battles take place between two tribes, such as thoso between the Geladas and thellaraadryads, described bySchimper, the well-known traveller, when sticks and stones are freely used. Most monk ey tribes, however, appear quite satis fied if permitted to remain in peaceable possession of their own localities, there to carry on their customary occupa tions. Some idea of their mode of life may be gleaned from snch scenes as those portrayed by Margrave in his ac count of a species of buflbn termed ouarines. "Every day, both mornins: and even ing," says tho traveller, "they assem ble in the woods to receive instruction. Wheu all coma together, one among the number takes the highest place on a tree, and makes a signal with his hand to the rest to sit round, in order to hearken. As soon as he sees them Idnced, he begins his discourse with so oud a voice, and yet in a manner so precipitate, that to hear him at a dis tance, one would think that the wholo company were crying out at the same time ; however, during that time, one only is speaking, and all the others ob servo the most profound silence. When this is done lie makes a sign with his hand for the rest to reply ; and at that instant they raise their voiees together, until, by another signal of the hand, they are enjoined silenco. This they as readily obey ; till at last tho wholo assembly breaks up." What the nature of this diseour-c is, not knowing t lie speaker's language, we have no means of ascertaining. Wheth er he expounds tho laws of the commu nity, or preaches morality to his hearers, cannot even be guessed at ; but it may be noted that in many manners and customs somn tribes of monkeys are far better behaved, according to European ideas, than many tribes of men. Among the higher types of monkeys, domestio morality appears to be well preserved. "Several kinds." says Darwin, "are strictly monogamous, and associate all the year round with their wives;" and this tamo authority quotes the anecdote of an intelligent Kandyan ohief, of course a polygamist, who "was per fectly scandalized at tho utter b xrbari anistu of living only with on wife, and never parting until separated by death. It was," ho cynieally observed, "just like tho Wanderoo monkeys. n Although e.i h family lives separate, it appears to bo n social terms with the other families of tho tribo ; aid when they remove their habitations, all travel together in lar,c bands. Let us suppose that the little orphan previ ously mentioned, now grown up and become ono of tho leaders of the tribe, has taken unto himself a wife from tho most attractive females of his species. Let us supposo that they are a happy duple, living in th; social freedom of their native wood and know ing nothing of the doings of the outer world, when suddenly a party of travellers appear upon the scene and ruthlessly despatch tho young bride. The sequel, to quote Forbes iu his "Oriental Memoirs," was as follows : "On a shooting party one of my friends killed a female monkey and carried it to his tent, which was soon surrounded by f.rty or fifty of tho tribe, who made a great noise, and in menacing posture advanced toward it. On his presenting his fowling-pieca they retreated: but "no stood his ground, chaptering and menacing in a furious manner. He at length came close to the tout door, and finding that his threatenings wore of no avail, be gan a lamentable in aning, and. by very expression of grief and supplica tion, seemed to beg the body of the de ceased. On this it was given to him. He took it up in his arms, eagerly pressed it to his bosom, and carried it off in a sort of triumph to his expecting companions. The artless behavior of this poor animal wrought so powerfully on the sportsmen, that they resolved never moro to level a gun at ono of tho monkey tribe." According to their custom of carrying away their dead and wounded, it may be presumed that our hero bore off his murdered bride and buried her, in accordance with the habits of his tribe, beneath a cairn of leaves. These creat ures, as we know, feel the most intense and overpowering sorrow for their de ceased, and something closely ap proaching to human intelligence min gles with their sense of the ravages of death. Belles and Bachelors. It takes a Western belle to speak her mind without fear or consequences. One of these inevitable old bachelors of society had been visiting one of these young ladies, and as he rose to go he ex pressed himself as charmed with her society, and hoped to see her soon again! "Oh, as to that, sir," said the belle, "since you are not a marrying man. I think there is no need of your calling airain!" So that settled the matter. The fact is, Saratoga is a poor matrimonial market. There is littlo use of match-making mammas pinch ing themselves in purse to give their daughters a season or two at tneSprings with the view of securing an eligible husband. There may eligible men in the world, but the most of them are al ready married. Society is flooded with wretched old bachelors and seedy widowers, who monopolize the company of the belles to such a degree that a young man is cast comparatively in the shade. If, as one lady declares, all widows ought to be cremated with their defunct hus bands, then all old bachelors and wid owers ought to be drowned so as to bo forever out of the way. It is true these old follows are handy sometimes for an escort just as wo take pieces of cracked china fivm the cupboard when there is not enough better ware to go round; but, if a young lady indulges in a taste for antiques, and allows herself to be escorted hero and there by a train of wretched old fossils, who take up her time and attention, and have not the slightest idea of proposing, as the years go by she will find herself fading into a passe belle, whom tho younger men will neglect and the more youthful beauties will deride as an "old maid." "Great jimmy, Spragglcs! What's the matter W you? I never saw you looking so completely worn out." "Why, the fact is, I do'i't feel exactly right; to tell you the truth, I'm just back from the seaside." Anna Dickinson finds fault because her name is not mentioned among tho subscribers to the Lincoln monument at Springtield, 111., when she gave one twentieth the whole amount. Certain ly she has a reason to find fault. A Rapid Descent. "You make me think," John Wil liams said, dropping on a sofa beside a pretty girl last Sunday evening, of a bank whereon tho wild thyme grows." "Do I," she murmu ed; "it is so nice, but that is pa's step in the hall, and unless von can droD out cf the ; front window before I cease speaking, ! you'll have a wild time with him, my j own, for lie loves you not." His de- ! scent was rapid. t a ! ' There arc now 10,000 Frotestant C..r'stiiiurt in Mexico. The Presbyte rian Church began its work here in ! 1872. and now cla:m.s 4,000 members. Ti e- Methodist Episcopal Church sent missionaries in 1878, and has now 337 members iu full connection and 378 on j probation. The Protestant Episcopal I Church lias 3,500 members. The first introduction of the Bible into the coun try was by tho soldiers and chaplains of the United States army in 1847. English and Amerioin English. An American friend of mine, in re sponse to the question by an English man (an exceedingly positive and dog matic person, as it chanced), Why do Englishmen never say 'I guess," re plied more wittily than justly, "bjcauso tl.ey arc al ways so positive about every thing." But it is noteworthy that, whereas the American says frequently "1 guess." meaning "I know," the Englishman as freely lards his discourse with the expression. "You know," which is, perhaps, more modest. Yet on the other side, it may be noted, that the "down E ist" American often uses the expression. "I want to know" in the same sene as our English expres sion of attentive interest "Indeed. Among other familiar Americanisms may be mentioned the following : An American who is interested in a narrative or statement will say "Is that so?" or simply "So !" The expres sion "Possible !" is sometimes but not often heard. Dickens misunderstood this exclamation as equivalent to "It is possible, but does not concern me ;" whereas in reality it is equivalent to the expression "Is it possible?" I have occasionally heard the expression, "Do tell !" but it is less frequently heard now than of vore. The word "riijht" is moro frequently used than in England, and ued also in s- nses different from those understood in our English usage of the word. Thus, the American will say "right here" and "right there," where an Englishman would say "just here" or 'just there, or simply "hero" or "there." Americans say "right away" where we say "directly." O.i the other I and. I am inclined to think that the English expression "right well," for "very well" is not commonly used in America. Americans say "yes, sir," and "no sir," with a sense different from that with w hich the words are used in Eng land ; but they mark the differe ice of sense by a difference of intonation. Thus, if a question is asked to which the reply in England would be simply "yes" or "no" (or, according to the rank or station of the querist, 'yes, sir," or "no, 6ir"), the American reply would bo 'yes, sir," or "no, sir." in oiiiited as with us in England. Bui if the rep'y is intended to be em. ha ie, then the intonation is such as to throw the eruphas's on the word "sir" the reply is "yes, sV," or "no, ." In passing, I may note that I never heard an American waiter reply "yessir," as our English waiters do. The American use of tho word "quit" is peculiar. They do not limit the word, as we do, tothe.Mgniticant "take leave" in fact, I have never heard an Ameri can use the word iu that sense. They generally use it as an equivalent to "leave cfF' or "stop." (In passing, ono may notice as rather strange the circumstanco that tho word "quit," which properly means "to go away from," and the word "stop," which n;eans to "stay." should both have come to be used as signifying of "leave off.'M Thus Americans say "quit fool ing,' for "leave off playing the fool," "quit singing." "quit laughing," and so forth. To English ears an American use of the word "some" sounds strange viz., as an adverb. An American will say, "I think some of buying anew house," or tho like, for "I httve some idea of buying, etc. I have, indeed heard tho usage defended as perfectly correct, though assuredly there is not an in stance in all the wide range of English literatuVe which will justify it. So, also, many Americans defend as good English the use of the word "good" in such phrases as the follow ing : "I have written that note good," for "well;" "that will make you feel good" for "that will do you good," and in other ways, nil equally incorrect. Of coulee, thero are instances in which adjectives are allowed by custom to bo used as verbs, as for instance, "right" for rightly," etc., but there c in b ; no reason for substituting the adjt-ctivo "good" in place of ttie adverb ".vt- i," w hich is as s'.ort a wo.d n I at least equally euphonious. The tn-jof "real" for "really," as "real angry," 'real nice," is, of course grammatically in defensible. The use of the word "elegant" for "fine" strikes English ears as strange. For instance, if you say to an Ameri can, "This is a fine morning," ho is likely to reply, "It is an elegant morn ing," or perhaps oftener by using simp ly the word "Elegant" It is uot a pleasing use of tho word. There are some Americanisms which seem more than defensible in fact, grammatically more correct than our English usage. Thus, we seldom hear in America the redundant word "got" in such expressions as "I have got." etc., etc. Where the word would not bo redundant, it is wt generally replaced by the more euphonious word "gotten," now scarcely ever heard in England. Yet, again, we often hear in America, such expressions as "I shall get me a new book," "I have gotten me a dress. "I must buy me that," and the like. This use of "me" for "myself is good old English, at any rate. I have been struck by the circum stance that neither tho conventional, but generally very absurd, American f our English novelists, nor the conven tional, but at least equally absurd. En glishman of American novelists, is made to employ the more delicate American:sms or Anglicisms. We gen erally find the American "guossing" or "calculating" if not even come c arsely Yankee, like Reade's Jc-shua Fullalove, while the Englishman of American novels is almost always very coarsely. British, even if he is not represented as using what Americans persist in re garding as the true "Ilenglish hac cent." Where an Am rican is less coarsely drawn, as Trollope's "Ameri can Senator," he uses expressions which no American ever uses, and none of those Americanisms which, while more delicate, are in reality more char acteristic, because they aro common, all Americans using them. An I in like manner, when an American writer in troduces an Englishman of the more natural sort he never makes him speak as an Englishman would speak ; be fore half a dozen sentences have been uttered he uses some expression which is purely American. Thus no English man ever uses and no American may be recognized at once by using sueh expressions as "I know it" or That's so," for "It is true," by saying "Why. certainly," for "certainly"," and so forth. There are a great number of these slight but characteristic peculiar ities of "American and English Eng lish. Gentlcmaria Magazine.
