TIMELY TOPICS. i The sacred right of petition of 10,167 has been vindicated to the extent peti¬ tions introduced in the Honse Forty- of Rep¬ resentatives daring the tifth United flutes Congress. They reU te to all sorts of subjects, and come from private individuals, aliens, corporations, literary, scientific, and labor-reform societies, boards of trade, State and Territorial legislatures; in fact, from almost every branch of trade and in¬ dustry. Under the rule of the House petitions are not presented in open ses¬ sion, but are placed on file, and as a general thiflg are never heard of. Sixty-nine libel unite for one libel! Ambigaity has been the death of one poor paper in Marseilles, France. The Aouvelliste , of Marseilles, stated some months ago tiiat the tax receiver of 8t. Etienne had embezzled $10,000. The proprietor must have had more than *' bad quarter of an hour ” when he one disoovered, as he very quickly did, that there are sixty-nine St. Etiennes, towns or communes in France. Every brought one of the tax reoeivers of these plaoes an action against the paper, which has been ordered to pay $20 damages to each collector, besides $40 fine. A "first exhibition circular” of the Melbourne International exhibition of 1880 has been received. It oontains long lists of commissioners and commit¬ tees aud the " system of general classi¬ fication,” apparently based to a con¬ siderable extent upon that of Philadel¬ phia. The president is the Hon. Wm. John Clarke, member of the legislative oounoil at Melbourne. Applications than for space should be sent in not later June 80, 1879. The reoeption of ex¬ hibits will commence June 1, 1880, and none will be admitted after August 81. The exhibition will remain open for six calendar months, oommonoing October 1, 1880, and dosing March 31, 1881. Full particulars oan be obtained from James E. Denison, No, 123 Oollins street, West Melbourne, who will act as general agent for American exhibitors. A subject of more than ordinary in¬ terest is now under consideration by a committee of the Medioo-Legal society, and it is deemed probable and that the of the re¬ sult of the research report law committee will be the passage of a providing for the verification of every case of supposed death ooourring in New York city. The wisdom and ne¬ cessity of snon a law, the Herald re marks, can hardly be questioned subject by any one who has given the any oare acknowledged ful thought; and so thoroughly is it by Europeans that in every principal oountry of Europe legal oognizanoe is taken of the possibility death. And of syncope being mistaken for in nearly all, if not all of the prinoipal cities on the oontiueut there is an offloer of the law whoso duty it is to decide in every case of apparent death whether it is or is not real. In England and Amer¬ ica, however, no protection is afford¬ ed by the statutes against the possibility of a live person being buried. An original character, well known in the Latin quarter, has j ust died in Paris at an advanced age. Pore Royer, as he was callad, fancied ho was au unappre oiated inventing genius, and systems amused^ which himself in to new wore renovate sooiety. He set up a new re¬ ligion, one article of which—and the one that j rooured the most adherents— was to make every other day a day of rest. He habituated himself to eating only on alternate days, nnd used to argne that by Bleeping twenty-four con¬ secutive hours and then working for a like period, the same sum of labor would be produced with a saving of food and the time lost at meals. During the late war Pere Royer invented a number of means for annihilating the Prussians, and never pardoned the war depart¬ ment for the indifference it manifested toward his Greek fire, which he called the " prussovore.” He was the author of some songs, which were sung in their time by the students, and of a poem called ** Le droit de boire,” which, un¬ fortunately for him, he never found a publisher to bring out. Like muny otbor philanthropists, he died in a state of utter destitution. New Mexioo has 1,000,000 head of sh*»ep, valued at $1,500,000; Colorado 950,000 head, valued at $1,000,000; $450,- Wy¬ oming territory 225,000, valued at 030. A Saggestifn for the Hick Room. A sick room should bo kept as quiet as possible, says an exchange. In oases of severe illness there is nothing more annoying to the patient than the noise made by pouring ooal into a stove to re¬ plenish the Are. It is a nuisance in more ways than one; but it can be avoided. A lady requests ns to men tion the very simple plan of filling a paper bag or tunnel with coal, and hav¬ ing it in readiness to gently suggestion plaoe worth upon the fire. This is a heeding, and should be received with thankfulness and acted upon whenever there may happen to be any person sick. A confidence operator was oaught in the act of oheating a man at cards, and boldly insisted that by so doing injunction* he was only When obeying asked the scriptural he made that he how out, said: "He was a stranger, and I took him in.” A lliieass that v% recti* ike System. Every function is deranged, every nerve un¬ by strung, every muscle and fiber weakened fever and ague. It is, in fact, a disease which, if unchecked, eventually wrecks the system. In all its styles, in every phase, it is dangerous, destructive. EOppor, delirium, convulsions, often attend it/and cause swift dissolution. But when oombatted with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters its foothold in the system is dislodged, and every vestige of it eradicated. That be¬ dreaded nign anti-febrile specifio and preventive of the scourge boundaries, is reoognized tropio not only lands within far onr own but in beyond them, where intermittents and remit¬ tents are fearfully prevalent, to be a sure antidote to tie malarial poison and a reliable means of overcoming disorders of the Btomaoh, liver and bowels, of whioh a vitiated, torrid atmosphere and brackish miasma-tainted water are extremely provocative. be All emigrants it. and travelers should supplied w ith New Saw Machine. , For many years farmers have felt the need of so mo improvement on th$Md ‘ and laborious two-handled cross-cut saw, for sawing np bodies of trees into any length desired for saw logs, stoves, rails, stove-wood, etc. This long needed improvement has at last been invented by W. W. Giles, of Cincinnati, O., who, by the way, is one of the greatest of American ventors. We see from our exohanges that the editor of the Ohio Farmer, also the editor the A. C, Revie*, of Cincinnati, called on Mr. peifonaliy both to ses ths marvelous saw machine. They cariosity pronounoed It a machine of great mant. Tba of these gentlemen was not satisfied npoo it seeing themselves others operate the machine, log. bat they both tried it on with a Urge and and they report that one than man operates ooold ease, saws mash more rspidly two men with the ordinary eroas-ont saw.

Mr. Giles is said to be very wealthy, being a real estate owner of over $1011,000, and hia confidence in the great merit of his invention is shown from the faot that he gua rantees every machine to give s atisfaction.
