Al* KI’HMT,*
J,oug expected in tire literary w/uld,
has, at last, occurred, in the publication of
Prof. Monier Williams' Sanskrit Diction
ary.
NO man in the world possesses greater
qualifications for to vast and laborious u
work than Prof. Williams, and no English
man can be mentioned who may be said
to approximate Ills stnndaid of Oriental,
and particularly Sanskrit scholarship A
little over a half century ago Wilson gave
to the world his dictionary of the Sanskrit
language, ami since that time, though full
of inaccuracies and awkward blunders, It
lias been the chief guide to Kugli h apeak -
iug Orleulul acliolni . Wilson’s labors are
not to lie lightly spoken of. Few men can
appreciate yie labor of compiling a dic
tionary of a language, where the sources
of information arc as various and contra
dictory us they have proved to lie unrelia
ble. liut Wilson Inhl (lie foundation for
ns to build upon. He hluzcd the way into
the vast wilderness, us the Isild, adventur
out pioneer, and lalcr scholars have no
languugu sufficiently grand lo express their
obligations to him.
Our old friend and lulor, Monier Wil
liams, partakes too much of Wilson’s spir
it to dispnruge his work, or to speak light
ly of that smirching acliolurnhlp which
lirst opened the bra/eu gales of the Impen
etrable treasury of Saoskiit love—to boy
ish minds. In the following paragraph
Prof. Williams from u noble English head
and heart, words that Mux Muller and the
Korbo's and the (loldwin Smith s would
do well to ponder, and, if possible, profit,
by.
Let me hero [ho guys] assert most em
phatically, not only that, considering the
condition of Sanskrit scholarship w hen it
was compiled, Professor Wilson’s was a
wonderful production, hut (hat, like many
oilier scholars, 1 could never have learnt
Sanskrit at all without its aid. Nevertheless,
sincerity obliges me lo confess, wluit other
lexicographers may perhaps admit to he
not without u pitiallel in their ow n men
tal history, that my mind Ims hud to pass
through a kind of puinful discipline in
volving a gradual weakening of faith iu
the performances of my fellow men, not
excepting those of my vcucruted teacher.
1 began. Indeed, with much confidence in
the thought that one man existed on whom
] could lean us an almost infallible guide ,
hut us .the work grew under my hands,
uud my sensitiveness to error sharpened,
1 discovered lo my surprise that I was
compelled to reject much of his teaching
as doubtful. Moreover the truth must lie
told, Hiatus I advanced further my trust
fulness iu others besides my old muster
began to experience occasional disagrees
hie uml unexpected shocks ; till, now that
1 have arrived at the end of my wink, 1
find myself left with my confidence in tho
accuracy of human beings generally—
certainly not excepting myself—rather
painfully disturbed
Now these are honest words, and our old
tutor will excuse us for reminding him of
what lie so often takes occasion to reminds
these who arc.proud of hia friendship—the
growth of intellect nnd the facilities of
acquiring accurate knowedge. One hun
dred years from uow, one grandson or
great grandson tuay flue) fatal defects in
Prof. William's Dictionary of Sanskrit,
hut such a discovery will not weaken the
grrat lexicographic's claims upon the con
fidence aud gratitude of mankind, or de
clare Ids present performance the acciden
tal jumble of a pedant.
It is useless to speak of the great difll
cullies overcome hy Mouicr Williams in
the progress of his great work. We re
joice with him that the god is born. Xo
scholar can ullbi and to do without it, nnd
students of philosophy aud tlis human
rare, will never cease to thunk the llodcu
Professoi lor the great boon which lie Ims
conferred upon thtui. With this work
extnnt, the desire to know something of
the dark language nnd the treasures it
coutsius, will he widely Increased. Our
American colleges and universities must
shortly add the Oriental ehaiu to tlieir list
of tutorships, ntul the study of the ancieot
■st of profane records will become the
standard discipline of the average miud.

The Deepest Well in the World.
Alxnrt twenty miles from Berlin is situ
ated iu tlis village of Spoienburge, noted
for the deei>est well that has ever been
sunk Owing to the presence of gypsum
Iu the locality, which is at n moderate
distance from the capital, it occurred to
the Government nuthoities in charge of
the mines to obtain a supply of rock salt.
With this end in view ilia sinking of a
abaft or well, Ui feet in diameter, was
commenced some live years ago, and at a
depth of 280 feet the salt was reached.
The boring was continued to h further
depth ofOwfoet, the diameter of the bore
being reduced to about 13 inches. The
operations were subsequently prosecuted
by the aid of steam until a depth of 4,194
feel was attained. At this point the boring
was discontinued, the borer or bit being
etiil in the salt deposit, which tints txhlb
its the enormous thickueaa of 4.907 feet.
The boring would have beeu continued in
order to discover what desciption of de
posit lay under the salt, but for the me
chauical difficulties connected with the
further prosecution of Hie operations.
During the progress of this interesting
■work repeated and careful observations
were made of the temperature at various
depths. The results confirm very closely
with those which have been already ar
rived at under similar circumstance*.

At a mass meeting of the Liberals at
Plc isautwllc, Westchester county, N. Y.,
Mr. Greeley, among others, was called
upon for a speech After reviewing the
history of the emancipation of slaves and
the "little unpleasantness," he concluded
with these words on the reconciliation of
the two sections
Wo hear of outrages there where there
ten or a dozen men concerned In them,
but in great States there have been heard
of no outrages. You have never heard of
them in Virginia, there are no Ku-klux
there ; there are uouc in Florida i tbero
are none in Mississippi; none in Louisiana
or In Texas, Then, I say, letjus try to call
these men, this people to us, to say to
them, “We arc brothers ; you and we have
warred ; we have been opposed to each
other and fought, you for .Slavery and Dis
union, we for Emancipation mid Union,
hut we fought not for our part of the coun
try alone, but for our whole country.
Our purpose was to mukc all men iu all
pnitaoi'lho country free, and our cause
was that of Union and Universal Freedom.
Now, then, come up and enjoy these priv
ileges—take your stand witli us. uud enjoy
every good the same as we have it.” Now
it seems to me that this is not merely
magnanimity, hut statesmanlike policy—
the country now needs; and when we
have got that, we will consider many
questions of the day about which we may
agree or dilfcr —turills. hanks, railroads,
anil so on. As wo diireml in the past,
we may cliticr again. Hut flic first of all
questions is the emancipation ol’ ull (lie
while men of the country, so that they
shall enjoy equal rights with the black
men of the country. That is the question
on which I stand as u candidate. Wheth
er the effort for reconciliation shall he
successful in my person or not I do not
know, lint 1 thank Heaven that my name
w ill lie identified iu history with this great
movement lo liberalize the policy ot this
country. This movement must prevail;
we cannot hate for ever; we shall settle
the questions and dissipate the misap
prehensions that still part us, if nut tins
year, then the next year or the year after,
and stand together as Americans, citizens
of one country, heirs of one heritage, ready
to slum! shoulder lo shoulder in defense
of that country if attacked by any enemy
whatever. [Great applause.]

The illness of Mrs. Parton seemed to have
been looked upon by her friends as fatal.
It brought out a good many iucidents of
her life, and even some writere essayed bi
ographical sketches of her. One in the
Evening Telegram thus speaks of her
Funny Fern, though nearly sixty years j
of age, was ns sprightly a lady until her i
present sickness as any hello of twenty
live ; and all those who have the honor of
her personal friendship are well aware of
the delightful charm of her society. In
England Fanuy Fern has acliii ved a rep
utation only second to that belonging to
her efforts in America. Asa writer she is
natural, wuim and impressive, and in the
power of narrative and description she is
never lacking There is no straining after
effect. She is naturally a poetess, though
she shrinks from rhyme. She is always
audacious and never dealn in second-hand
ideas, though she lias written for the New
V ork Ledger for nearly seventeen years
From this widely known newspaper, which
owes a great deal of its popularity to her
pen, she lias drawn during her connection
with its columns, 1 believe, the immense
sum of $ 150,000
To give some idea of the popularity of
her works—a popularity never attained in
this cycle by any other woman writer hut
"Ouida" (Miss De Rameau) —I will give
some figures from a statement furnished
me. Ou the 24th of May, 1854, thirteen
months after her first publication of any
work, the sides of Fanny Fern’s books had
readied the following stupendous number
of copies First series of "Fern Leaves.”
70,000 1 "Little Ferns for Fuuuy's Little
Frlands," 32,000; second series “Fei n
Leaves," 30,000. Total sales in United
Slates, 132,000. Sales in Great liritaiu —
first series "Fern Leaves," 29,000; “Little
Ferns for Johnny's Little Friends,” 19,-
000, or a grand total of 180,000 copies in
both countries—an unprecedented occur
rence in so short a time. Fanny Fern be
came an authoress by accident. She hud a
happy home, surrounded by wealth and
comfort Suddenly the bolt fell, and her
husband nnd luiher were smitten down,
leaving the mother and half orphaned
children to struggle with a cold
world. Adversity followed fast, and
the young widow, in sheer des
peration, took to the pen, and, with
one bold stride, passed at once into
tlie galaxy ol American writers. Her suc
euss has chiefly lieeu won for one reason,
and but for the fact that her books are all
adapted to the family, aud are ail on do
mestic subjects, with a tine but not over
strained perception of ttio rights nnd
wrongs of women and children.
Tkkkiui.f. —Madame Kudersdorfl is a
terribly abused lady. It is well known
that she possesses a sweet voice, and sings
like a nightingale, but who would have
thought she was as bad as an ardent but
flighty critic makes her out as follows :
To tell you how she sung would be im
possible, but if oue uiay esmpare an object
of sight to one of sound, we would say
that her voice is like a rocket, which from
the first bursts upon the sight with a mag
niticence that claims undivided attention,
aud in an instunt carries your atlentiou
from earth to heaven, where it bursts into
ten thousand orbs of glory that scintillate,
each a separate gem upon the blue em
pyrean, and burn each with a varied hue
of beauty that at once distracts and com
mands attention, until they burst into a
fleecy trail of stare that float down the
vaulted sk\ softly and slowly, until the
earth seems over arched by a lace-work of
fire, that drops earthward, as it falls, grow
ing thinner, finer, until, like the last ex
piring breath of a sigh, it is lost in the eve
ning air.
Mns Greeley's Illness —Hon. Lew
is McKenzie, of Alexandria. Virginia, has
received a letter from Horace Greeley, in
which, speaking of his invitation to visit
the London Agricultural Fair, he informs
Mr McKenzie that his wife is dangerous
ly ill, indeed, that tier Ills is dispaired of,
and that uuiess there is an unexpected
change for the better he will be compell
ed to forgo ail his contemplated visits
A Farmer, whose cribs were full of corn

Victor Hcoo is, if anything, more
spasmodic in bis vagaries of style than
ever. Ho has just written a letter to a
French socicty.apropos to some celebration
on behalf of Alsace and Lorraine, which
began . "Friends . You have confidence.
You are not conquered. To three Em
perors, oppose three dates the 14th of
July, the lOth of August, the 21st ef Sep
tember. The Mill of July signifies the
demolition of the Haslile ; I Oth of August
signifies Equality from the discrowning at
the Tuileries. and the 21st of September is
the date of the proclamation of the Re
public, and symbolizes Fraternity. These
three ideas will triumph over three
armies.” Aud so he goes on, from bad to
worse. lie is as impracticable and full of
souiidiug verbiage iu his old age as lie
was in his youth, and utterly visionary iu
both.
Several companies have been formed
to bring fresh meat from Texas to North

sels is lined with a non-conducting felt;
and, by chemical means, a cold below the

low as to freeze the meat. The lirst vessel

Cotton Movement from Georgia.—
The Wilmington (N. C,) Journal under
stands that the cotton now passing through

The most of this goes from Georgia and is
being carried till the way through over

THE FKE tlllltt WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising is
a necessity to success iu business; it is also
conceded, by ihe shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are the best medium for reaching
all parties whose trade is desired.
THE MONHOE ADVERTISER
readies more of the people trading; with Ma
con than any other journal published in the
country; it is, therefore, the best medium of
communication with the planting interests.
We will be happy at any lime to furnish refer
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties who read
their cards in The Advertiser. In fact, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds that of all
other journals in which they are represented
The Advertiser has the freshness of youth and
the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly
►uccessful.
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS.
No advertisements are admitted which are
not believed to be above question and of real
value, and from parties so unquestionably re
liable that the readers of The Adrertiter will l>e
safe in ordering them from any distance. To
our readers, the fact of its appearance here has
all the weight of endorsement and authority
