THE VATICAN. Speculation as to tlie Duration, of Pope Pius IX. A physician whom we may presume tlie skilled in calculating probabili ties in such a ease, according to the orthodox universe, recently paid a vis it to the Vatican, and come to the con clusion that there is every likelihood of Pius IX living ten years more. Why not? llisagois eighty-four;according to bis own account eighty-six. But what then ? Women, we are told, are ns old as they look, men as old as they feel. Popes are as old as certain supposed celestial exigencies require them to be. Pio N ollo’s life is a miraculous one He has exceeded the years of Peter. Compared with him there is no other pontiff aid par secundus. There have been, we believe, two hundred and fifty-seven holy fathers, and the papacy has lasted for 1,824 years, reckoning from Rome’s traditional, if fabulous, accession of St. Peter. That would give each occupant of the pontifical chair a reign of rather more than seven years. Pius IX has worn the pontigeal diara for upward of thirty, or about four times the period that, on a calculation of averages, he was entiled to. Pius VI. and Pius VII. come nearest to him in lengths of rule ; but he has distanced all his predecessors. If Pius IX. were promised that he would, ten years hence, still be the in fallible mouth-piefe of the Roman church, we entertain little doubt (hat he would count confidently upon seeing his enemies delivered into his hands be fore his monument was erected in St. Peter’s. Just at present the whole world, with the exception of the pope, seem to be living on an inclined plane. He has experienced the worst; he has nothing more to lose. The rest are t rembling for their possessions and po sitions. No one feels quite safe. The sudden overthrow of Austria and the dismemberment ot France have natur ally made men ask whose turn it is to be next. Some hope that hitherto vietorous Germany will prove the next sport of fate; others deprecate but dread that consummation. Will France recover its lost provinces, or will another act of rascality cost the French people yet more deafly ? Has Austria got to the bottom of her troub les ? The papacy sits at the foot of the hill, and can afford to wait and watch. Indeed, it can do nothing else. Smollet and His Mother. Tobias Smollett, the novelists, peet, genius, and traveller, best remembered perhaps, by the average English read er as the author of “ Roderick Ran dom,” lost his father at an early ase, and as his mother had been left poor, he was taken in charge and educated by his grandfather. At the age of nineteen he had served a term of ap prenticeship with a physician in Glas gow, when, his grandfather hav ing died without making further pro vision for him, he went to London, there to strike out for himself. He carried with him the manuscript ot a tragedy, called “The Regicide,” upon which he placed his great reliance, but he found no manager willing even to read it, so he threw aside-his pen in disgust, and obtained a position as surgeon’s mate on board an eighty-gun ship, where he learned much of life. He was present at the ill-fated expedi tion against Carthagena, where he gained a rich experience which he subsequently incorporated into “Rod erick Random.” When he again turned his efforts into the literary chan nel he was better able to battle with opposition, and as he produced wotks ot real merit he became popular. Smollett had grown from youth to middle age when he concluded once more to visit his native land. His fame had gone before him, and his re ception by the dignitaries of Scotland was cordial and flattering. But he had promised himself the greatest pleasure in meeting his mother, whom he had not seen since his heard began to grow. The battle of life, and the travel into foreign climes, had left their scars and their tan, and it was thought, that his mother would not know him. Mrs. Tefler, his sister, introduced him as a gentleman from the West Indies, who had known Tobias when he was there, and the better to support his assumed character, Smollett put on a serious look, amounting almost to a frown; hut while his mother’s eyes were riveted upon his face —the old eyes, with the kindly gaze that he re membered so well —he could not re frain from smiling. In an instant she was upon his bosom, with her arms around his neck. “Oh, my son! my son! I have found you at last! Ah !” slip added, as she held him off and gazed upon him, “had you kept the austere looks and the gloom upon your lace, I might have missed you ; but the old roguish smile—it betrayed you at once !”— N. Y. hedger. Rapier Bartlett, who died in Cov ington, La., last Thursday, was a son ot Dr. Myrow Bartlett, thirty years editor of the Macon Telegraph, and had been c rmected himself with a number of southern journals. He was a lawyer by profession, a soldier in the Washington Artillery during the war, an author of some note, a democrat of marked influence, and an alternate for hi district, in the St. Louis convention. He was about forty years ot age at the time of his (Lath. DAVID DAMOUNA. Published for the Use of Those > who will not be at the Pains of Re ading of “ Daniel Deronda. ” “ Geraldine Hartopp” has been con sidered by the exoteric to be a girl of striking beauty. The truth known to the esoteric few was that th ere was a certain hydrostatic force in her aspect which compelled admiration or hate, and had been known to dra' >v tears of envy. Site pawned her nocklace at Baden-Baden ta pay a gambling debt, and the next day it was re turned to her with a mysterious note, which she associated with a mysterioui t stranger who had watched her with some con - tempt in his hooked nose as she played. After this the family was ruined. ii. Oourtebotte was very rich, and de scended from a line of kings. He sat at breakfast with his hanger-on, Blush, whom he fed alternately with the dogs who cringed at his feet. Plush, for I his own reasons, tried hard to dissuade I Oourtebotte from proposing to Geral dine, but received for answer a kick and an oath in an inward voice. hi. Geraldine, finding that she could not go stage, resolved to marry Oourtjßette, who had several other estabSiments. IV. While Damouua was exploring a synagogue an ancient Jew plucked him by the coat, and said: “ Look here, ma tear, you’re one of us.” v. This made Damouna think, and hold himself up by the coat collar, a fa vorite action of his. lie then pulled a Jewish girl out of a river, and be came acquainted with a consumptive Hebrew who wrote poetry, and ad dressed Damouna as his brother. VI. Courtehotte’s high breeding came out in his habit, of beating his wife, and swearing at her in his inward voice. VII. Damouna met his hitherto unknown mother, who was a Jewish opera singer. “ S’help me,” he cried in ecstasy, “ I always thought I was a Jew.” VIII. Geraldine was never quite sure that she had helped her husband to drown or not. Damouna advised her to keep it dark, but did not [impose to marry her. “"It is no matter,” she said, “I - he a better woman for all you have said to me.” “ Shallabalah ? ” said Damouna, taking himself up by the collar, and lifting himself out <>i the room. After this, he married the little Jewess he had pulled cut ot the river.— London Examiner. The French administration of woods and forests is accustomed every year at this period to mark the trees which are to be cut dowd the next season*. That work has been rendered super fluous this year in the forest of Com piegne by the storms which have reged with such violence this year, and which have (flown down about 250,000 loads of limber. No treee will in conse quence be felled in 1876 or 1877. Rheumatism is more common and distressing, especially in this country, than almost any other disease; and, at, the same time, it may be asserted that it is as little understood and as unsuccess luliv treated. Physicians, in many cases, are unable to cure it, even in their own person; yet such are the unparalleled virtues of the celebrated Merchant’s Gargling Oil, that the most obstinate cases at once yield to it.— Springfield (Mass.) Daily Union. S Fortune in An Hour. Peo} K oil over the land are looking with intense interest to the 30thol November, the day that the Grand Drawing of the “Kentuc ky <’ash Distribution Company” takes place at Frankfort, Kentucky. The day will bring fortunes to many, and it will be regarded by lucky ticket-holders as the great day of their lives. Fortune’s favorites will not lie few. Over eleven thousand of them w ; ll be made happy, and their friends who have no tickets will say bad words about themselves when they hear of their prosperity and good for tune. It is better to huv a ticket and know that you are on the safe side. Whole tickets, sl2: halves, st>; quarters, $3. Ex Gov. Thes. P. Porter, General Manager,Frankfort, Ky. CHI LLS, CHlLLS.— Wintersmitlrs Tonic Sy rup or improved Chill C* rr, is a ceitain remedy lor every form of Fever and Ague. lis superiority over all other remedi. 8 is in the fa t that the cure is a permanent one the Chill,when broken f doe,i not return.
