T-L1 V GLEASKG3. The salary of Rev. Dr. Scudder, oa Brooklyn, has been raised to $10,000. Both senators and six. of the eleven members of congress from Massachu setts are in favor of suffrage for women. General Nathaniel P. Banks is still popular in Massachusetts aa a lecturer, lie is 66 years old, ia as handsome as ha ever was, and he knows it. It is said that theie are eleven nuns in the Hotel Dion Convent, Quebec, who have each completed over fifty years in the sisterhood. , . There are now 2,2083011001 districts i a Pennsylvania, with 18.8S5 schools: Last year $7,994,705.01 was spent, on these schools, which were under the charge of 21,352 teachers. Burlington Hauskcye: A new religious novel has just been issued entitled: "Who did it?' We are not going to lie about it; we honestly believe it was Robert IngeraoIL M. Gambetta is trying hard to acquire the German language, and to that end has lately surrounded him.elf with per sons almost exclusively acquainted with that tongue. A dressmaker of Lo.'d.s, Kng., was se riously iajutvd bv keeping threads of silk in her inoutfi, because it had a sweet taste. The taste was duo to sugar of lead used in coloring. Mrs. Langtrv's excellent elocution on the stag is said to be a gift she has in herited from her father, the Dean of Jersey. Much of her beauty, too, cornea from that exceedingly handsome digni tary. Mrs. Attorney General Brewster's father, Robert J. Walker, was secretary of the treasury under Polk, and Mrs. Secretary Lincoln's father, James Har lan, was secretary of the interior under Johnson. The wife of the Chinese minister at Washington has not yet made her ap pearance in society. One of the chief reason?, besides official etiquette which keeps her in seclusion, is that she does not understand a word of English. The Washington Star says that a culler at the White Ilouse, who wanted to see the President very much, wrote on his card as an inducement to be let in: "My wife is a personal friend of one of your groomsmen." George W. Childs' collection of clocks, at', his residence in Philadelphia, foreign and domestic, is said to be valued at $30,000. For one of them, cased in onyx and verde antique and crowned by a female figure in silver, Mr. Childs paid $5,000. Oscar Wilde may, perhaps, be inter ested in a little family conundrum late ly put by a snarling Diogenes. "Who was the first esthete?" asks the cynic, and answers in the next breath: "Ba laam's ass, because the Lcrd made him to (o) utter." , - United States Senator Charles W. Jones, of Florida, who is about to mar ry a wealthy young lady of Newbury port. Mass., is said to be unusually well read in the works of English statesmen. He is a tall, robust, pale-eyed, sandy haired widower. A fashion correspondent writes: "The Princess of Wales was once almost as tasteless in dress as her mother-in-law, but the visits of this charming lady to Paris have gradually developed a genu ine taste, and she is almost as much ml "a sovereign dictator in dress as Eugenie was." A liquor-dc:ilT in a Massachusetts town received last week a ostal card signed "Justice,' and reading: "Mr. , Rumseller, Westfield: "Please attend the funeral of a man whom you have tried to kill for the last ten j-ears." Oil City Derrick: A wag describes a teacher's institute as a place where the males go to look at the females, and the females to look at each other, while bits of learning are sandwiched in like the clove the young man goes out for be tween the acts. The monument to Garfield, which the society of the Army of ,the Cumberland proposes to erect, is to cost $200,000, and will probably Im phifod in Wash ington. The such -ly has appointed a committee to attend lo the work of col lecting subscriptions. Near Knoxville, T nn., an intoxicated man fell across the railroad track a few feet in front of Hie eiohn-, which had begun to move, when M;sh Sarah Shea, young girl, darted forward and jerked the man from the rail, thus saving him from a terrible death. The railroad company has honored the 3011 ng lady by lifetime pass over the road, which is all very well, but there is yet room for further romance if the rescued is a single man and properly appreciates the noble act of a heroine. It is said that the Rogue's gallery of Puris contains about 60,000 photographs, collected during the six jears since the B3stem was adopted. They lie in a con fusion, however, which puzzles the most patient explorer. It has been suggested that they be classified according to those characteristics of the subject which his ingenuity cannot disguise, as height, color of the eyes, length of the foot, shape of the head, etc., thus separating the vast collection into groups, any one of which could be easily examined whenever an individual's identity is in dispute. Ldmund Yates says: "The American Christmas is purely due to Charles Dick ens. When he invented, or, rather, re vived Christmas, the Americans took up the matter warmly. The celebration had long been made out in the States to be the festival of the winter 6olstice and a purely pagan affair. Dickens infused new life into it, and the Americans have taken Christmas at his estimate. Be fore that they had only three festivals the Fourth of July, New Year and Thanksgiving. Christmas became the fourth and is now very popular among Americans, who delight in entertaining any Briton who ma3 be among them." The last census shows a rapid advance ment in the growth of cotton and food products. In 1870 the amount of cotton produced was 4,352,317 bales; in 1880 more than 6,000,000 bales. In 1870 the amount of corn raised was 760,940,594 bushels; in 1880, 1,751,449,435 bushels. During the last decade our agricultural products were increased nearly 100 per cent. During the year from 1879 to 1880 our export trade largelv increased. The cattle export rose from "$13,000,000 to $14,000,000; wheat from $167,698,000 to $190,546,000; flour from $35,000,000 to $45,000,1)00; cotton from $209,852,000 to $245,536,391; and pork from $5,000, 000 to $8,000,000 annually. A shrewd little female scamp in St. Louis collected about $50 during the holidays from benevolent persons in the following manner: She would get into a horse-car, nay her fare, ride a long distance, ami then tell the conductor t let her out at a street remote from the point where the car then was. "Why, you are on the wrong car, three or four miles from where you want to go," the conductor would answer. Thereupon the little shivering wretch would begin to cry bitterly, and the other passengers, aglow with seasonable kindness, would take up a collection for her benefit. The Vienna Neue Freie lYctse quotes from Tacitus his de--ription of the col lapse of the wooden amphitheatre at Fidenae during the rei-n f Tiberius, by which, according to the anuals, 50.000 persons were'killed or w ounded. The immense structure was a flimsy affair, put up by a certain Ailius, and there is ruuch comfort after reading about the horrors of the catastrophe and the meas ures adopted to prevent their repetition, in being informed by Tacitus, with characteristic terseness, that "Atiliu was burned. MEN 01 THE DAY. T 5t.i - V: ""AAA LIEUT. GEO. W. DE LOffQ. The subject of this sketch, Lieutenan Geo. W. lie Long was born in New York City, in 1844. He was appointed an acting midshipman in 1861, and in the ordinary course of promotion he was made lieutenant in 1869. In 1873 he was appointed navigator of the relief ship Juniata, sent to the arctic seas in search of the survivors of the Polaris. The story of the loss of the Jeannette, and of the safe arrival of a part of her officers and crew at the mouth of the Lena River, in Siberia, after a boat and sledge journey unparalleled in the his tory of arctic adventure, has been be fore the public for months. Societies have eagerly waited, since her depart ure for tlie frozen seas in 1879, for news of her whereabouts, and the suspense of the past year is prominent In the public mind. . - , The Jeannette was crushed in ice on the 23d of last June, more than six months ago. For three months the brave Commander De Long and his party were struggling with the terrors and dangers of the frozen seas before they could reach human habitations, ana three months more have elapsed while the news of their escape traversed the barren wastes of Siberia, and finally reached St. Petersburg, from whence it was transmitted in all haste to every part of the civilized world. But beyond the mere fact that the Jeannette is lost, and that most if not all of hor crew ro saved, nothing is 3et known of the thrill ing adventures through which this gal lant ship and her brave company have passed. The story of nearly two years of arctic experience is 3et to be told a story which is awaited with anxious im patience. No New Jokes There is absolutely nothing new in jokes. They never die. The jokes that are familar to us are those which our ancestors enjoyed. They are found in the most ancient literature that re mains, and in hierogly phics of the ruin ed monuments of dead empires. Their unchanged existence through these ages does not allow that these, like the earth and man, may have . been created by a Erocess of development; they must have een created bsolutely. At some st age of the work of cffniio tie jokes were launched into being, and they have con tinued to revolve by their own gravity, the same as the planets. None of them can be annihilated any more than mat ter, nor can another be added. No per son who attojnpts originality can get re cognized as a wit, but jiriy mau can, who has talent for memorizing the old stock jokes and funny stories, and for working them over on all occasions. We have much to learu from New England and from the giant West, and we have an equal part in their achiev ment; but lie spirit and the germs of our own progrt-JS and future glory are our own, or else we havt to d: 3 out, move away, or become absorbed by a people worthy of this inheritance. S'ashvitle American. a ! Scandinavian Honesty. The traveler in Sweden and Norway sees many customs which indicate that the people are unusually courteous and honest. At the railway dining sta tions, a large table is set in the centre of a spacious room, ' Upon it are dis played a variety of tempting dishes, and piles of warm plates with knives, forks, and napkins. The passengers enter without confu sion, walk around the central table, se lect what dishes they like best, and then seat themselves at little marble tables scattered n the room. Every person, remembering that hii neighbor may like the dish of which he partakes, helps himself with moderation. For the din? ner a fixed sum is charged, about thirty? nine cents; but wine, beer, and coffee being extras, the guest tells how much of each he has drank, Jlis word is taken without question, as no one watches him. On board the steamboats three meals ft day are served, which, however, are not included in the price of the passage. After each meal, the passenger who has partaken writes his name in a large book, and records under it what he has eaten or drank. When he is ready to go ashore, he calls one of the waiters a girl who puts the price against every item, adds up the amount, and puts the sum she receives in her pocket- When the money becomes too heavy, she gives it, without counting, to the stewardess. All is left to the honesty of the peo ple. Instead of this confidence beget ting laxity, it makes everyone careful to pty to the uttermost penny. His honor is. at stake; therefore be feels obliged to be very particular. Mr. Du Chaill u tells of a servant girl who brought him a gold locket which he had dropped on the floor the previous evening, while displaying his curiosi ties. "Why did you not keep it?" he -said, playfully. "How, then," she answered, "could I ever walk erect and look people in the face?" He once had hard work to make a man accept a small sum of money which he had earned. . The honest fellow had traveled on snow-shoes in the soft snow for an hour to restore to Mr. Du Chaillu his gold watch and chain, which he had left under his pillow at the house where he had slept the evening before. . Only b3 showing him that he"wa paid for his loss of time, and not for returning what did not belong to him, could he be per suaded to accept the mone3. .Ulnminaiing Discovery. They have discovered a kind of illu minator in France which gives light but which does not consume. It is. a miner al essence, which when put in a lamp B'ves light when ignited through a wick. . Cordig, t he in ventor, after filling and igniting a lamp, dashed it against the ceiling of the laboratory. The blazing fluid wa3 scattered over the floor, ana on the persons of the lookers-on. but strange to say, no one was burned or scorched. A pocket-handerchief was then soaked in the fluid and set on Are. A fierce flame resulted, but the "pocket handkerchief was uninjured. - The fluid was then set on fire in a pail, and the bystanders plunged their hands into the burning flame. ' A prickly sensation fol lowed, but no scorching or burning. In short, the discovery has bean maae of light without heat, of an artificial fluid of which there is no danger of combus tion. The occupation of insurance companies. will be gone when thi fluid is in universal use. t Hot ft Minister. . Am latuhf Xlmten of Sruaatr. . An Arkansaspaper tells a story on John ArMeeks, a traveling man for .Weil & Brother, of St. Louis. He had just stepped off a train at a small town in the southern part of the State, when he was accosted by a couutiyman, who asked, deferentially, "What i your name, please?" -Mecks." 'Well, Brother Meet., I am here with ft spring-wagon, and am at your service. Are you readv to go now? Where is your baggage?" Mecks did not question the man who had addressed him, supposing bim to be ft merchant of the village not far distant He had. been wondering if any means of transportation would be 'within reach, and considered himself fortunate in se curing a spring-wagon. The trip to the. village was mainly characterized by sil ence. The driver made one or two al lusions to religious matters, which Meeks answered laconically. When the spring-wagon arrived at the village. Meeks was driven to the residence of a prominent citizen, Mr. George Young, where an excellent supper was waiting. Mr. Young and his family were de lighted to see the young man. Young laughingly alluded to the large trunks of his guest, remarking that the old saddle-bag days were over. Meeks smiled over a chicken bone, and affably agreed with his host After supper the party repaired to the parlor, where miscellaneous conversa tion, tempered by a religions tone, was engaged in. Finally Mr. Young, hand ing Meeks a Bible, requested him to read a certain chapter, which the young man did. .Then Young, clearing his throat at one of his children, andnodding to another, remarked: "Brother Meggs, lead us in prayer." "Meggs, thedeuse!" exclaimed Meeks. "My name is not Meggs. What in thunder does all this mean, any way? I am a St. Louis drummer " "What!" exclaimed Young. "Are you not the man who was sent here to preach for us to-morrow?" "I am sent here to sell you goods, but hanged if I'll preach for any body." A rap at the door interrupted the con versation. A J'oung man, fatigued and muddy, entered and introduced himself as Preacher Meggs. The mistake was then explained. The driver of the spring-wagon had taken the wrong man. Poorllej "hoofed" it seven miles. Aa Iatolligeat Ape. A man of strict veracity relates these two facts, of which he was an eye-witness. He had a very intelligent ape, to whom he amused himself by giving wal nuts, of which the animal was extreme ly fond. One day he placed them at such a distance from the ape that the animal, restrained by his chain, could not reach them. After many useless ef forts to indulge himself in his favorite delicacy, he Tiappened to see ft servant pass by with a napkin under his arm. lie immediately seized hold of it, whisk ed it out beyond his arm to beat the nuts within his reach, and so obtained posses sion of them. His mode of breaking the walnuts was a fresh proof of his inven tive powers. He placed the walnut upon the ground, let a great stone fall on it, and so got at its contents. One day the ground on which he had placed the wal nut was so much softer than usual that, instead of breaking the walnut, the ape only drove it into the earthy "yhatdoes the animal do? He takes up a piece of tile, places the walnut ujxn it, and then lets the 6tone fall while the walnut is in that position. In Nantucket there are sixteen women to one man. Pattl travels with thirty-three trunks. Patti, it may be superfluous to add, does not perform in the ballet. A Perplexing "Weddug. 'May a man marry his wife's deceas ed sister?'' was a question which uted to be put, as a hoax, to college f peshr men, by "experts in the junior class; and the tyro would often argue at good length until a broad Jaugh among by standers revealed the trick in the query. "May a man marry his deceased wife's sister?" is the form in which the inquiry is raised by late chronicles. , A recent story from Long Island ia that a wife and mother, enfeebled by disease, and believing that she was soon to die, sought to assuage her anxiety for the future of her little ones by pro moting a match between her husband and her sister. The invalid no doubt had read extensively in the cautionary literature relating to step-mothers, and cou4d not bear to leave the selection of one for her babes to chance or, what is much the same thing, the widower's choice. Jler sister, the children's lov ing aunt, would be, she was sure, still more loving as a mother. She adjured the sister and the husband to give her the comfort of seeing them solemnly married before she should close her eyes upon the world. They at length acced ed; a wedding was held; whereupon, being relieved in mind, she straightway began to recover in body, and at last ac pounts was much better than had been expected. In short, she is getting welL And the question in the neigh borhood now is, What about that wed ding? It "goes without .saying" that this ceremony was no marriage. The con sent or request of the wife could not take the place of a divorce, op dispense with the law which forbids, a marriage by one having a wife living. It is not clear that it would even warrant a prosecution for bigamy. True, here was a married man formally taking another wife. Every outward aspect of bigamy Is presented. But judges have a maxin that there is no crime where there is no criminal intent; and a jurv would per haps be told that if they believed that the husband and the sister did not intend or suppose they were contracting a pres ent marriage, but only meant by the ceremony to attest in the most binding manner to the dying woman that they were to t9 married as soon as they law fully might, therptvaa. no bigamy, The case, though a very earnest one, would probably be likened in law to a mock marriage, such as is sometimes per formed in jest at an evening entertain ment. What is better worth knowing is thai serious questions hare arisen whether engagements to marry,' made while one of the parties is already married, are of any effect. Suppose the wife in the story had died, and the husband had been disposed to say to th slstars J only promised to marry you, and went through the pretence of doing so, to re lieve my wife's mind.' Could she sue him for preach of promise? Cases have occurrred in which a man already wed ded has courted another woman, and ob tained her promise to marry him when he should become free by divorce or death. And if he has, when that time came, refii!ed, and she lias brought suit, lawyers for her have argued that his engagement was a binding one; it was like a contract to sell a farm which one expect3 to buy, and he must perform it or pay damages. But the current of thought among judges is that all such engagements are "contrary to public policy" and void. A married persom cannot make a binding promise to mar ry, not even with reference to a time when freedom to fultill it is expected. Whoever, knowing the marriage, trusts to such 3 promise, does not even gain a right to sue for breach. But a man anu in that character engages nimseu to a woman ignorant of his ties, cannot es cape damages on this ground. N. T.
