The Lord Chancellor of England re | ceives a salary equal to that of the President of the United States. The story that President Arthur’s son •s engaged to the daughter of Congress man Crowley is officially denied. The registration in New York City for the first day this year exceeds that on first day last year, by about 20,000. Miss La Forge, who was betrothed to Lieutenant Clapp, of the Jeannette, has Jied insane with grief at his unhappy fate. Brazil has ratified a treaty with China permitting Chinese emigration. The Chinese are needed for coffee plan tations. The Rev. Charles H. Spurgeon has of latp been suffering severely from tho gout. He is about to leave London for* Mentone. Governor Crittenden, of Missouri, denies the story that he introduced Frank James to Mrs. Crittenden as his “friend.” The Duke of Athole plants every year from (>OO,OOO to 1,000,000 trees. He is said to be the most extensive tree-planter in the world. Senator Pendleton’s new house on Sixteenth street, Washington, has mas sive gilded sunflowers at the top of the lightning-rods. Senator Hale, of Maine, is in such poor health that he will be unable to take any further active part in this fall’s political contests. Miss Mary Hill has been admitted to the Connecticut bar by the Supremo Court of that State, aud is the first of her sex to gain that distinction. Hon. Alexander Mackenzie, ex- Promier of the Dominion, has been pre sented with an address and a purse c. utainiug $5,500 by his old constituents of the County of Lambton, Ontario. It is related that when a young man, in General Robert Toombs’ presence, objected to Milton’s “Paradise Lost,” that it was obscure, Toombs said with pity: “Milton was blind; he couldn’t see to write for fools. ” One of Arabi’s tents at Tel-el-Kebir was lined with crimson damask silk; the other was embroidered with forget me-nots, pomegranates and other fruits, in a manner which would put some tine art needlework associations to the blush. The colossal statue of Lord Boacops field which is to be set up in Parliament Square, London, this winter, will repre sent the deceas'd statesman at that period of his career when he returned triumphant from the Congress of Berlin. Mbs. Amanda Smith, who was once a slave in Delaware, and who is well known in many churches in this coun try, has reached Monrovia, Liberia, af ter three years of successful evangelistic work in Great Britain and the East Indies. Milk is said to be growing in favor in England as a substitute for beer, and tlie Northwestern Railway Company lias been buying a large herd of cows. 500 in one purchase, proposing henceforth to supply milk to thirsty travelers, who have no recourse except beer. A Mississippi gentleman has offered two prizes for the State Fair—a box of kid gloves for the handsomest unmar ried lady and a gallon of whisky to the man who writes the best essay on tem perance. _ The Rothschilds are virtual owners of one fifth of the fertile lands in the Delta of the Nile. Their share in Egyptian bonds is popularly estimated at £12,000,- 000. Au envious anti-Semite calculates shat the income of Baron Wilhelm Rothschild is about £2B per hour, or aiue shillings per minute. An absurd story going the rounds of lie continent is that Arabi surrendered because he was suffering from pains in he slomach. He is said to have tele graphed to Sir Garnet Wolseley: “As you have good doctors, will join you diortly. Prefer captivity with the Eng lish to cholera in Egypt.” Nearly nine years have elapsed since, m October 31, 1873, the Spragues, of Rhode Island, failed. They had assets valued at $20,090,000, while their liabil ities were $6,000,000 less than th. Amount. The estate was put in the “Faithful to the Right, Fearless Agninst Wrong,” j hands of an assignee, and it was hoped . that in two or three years all olaims : would be settled or greatly reduced, but one legal complication after another has followed. The many suits which have be n passed upon by the courts have not been adjusted with much consistency, and to-day tile ptoporty is in more of a tangle than ever. An Erie, Pennsylvania, physician and chemist, Dr. Lovett, is credited with discovering a process of embalming which consists of placing in .a coffin from which the air has be6n exhausted, several ingredients, that being dissolved Iby electricity fill the Vacuum with a preservative gas. The body of a young child in the first stages of decomposition has already been preserved nearly two months without change, decay being ar rested and the odor of decomposition destroyed. He also claims it Asa pre servative of meat, his experiments so far having been successful, The gas is not injurious to food no? to Water. The new census of London, shoe ing the population to be 4,764,312 souls, has drawm out from Land, the English journal, some striking contrasts. “There are,” it says, “in London more than double the number of people in Den mark, including Greenland; nearly three times as many as in Greece; more than eighteen times the population of Monte negro; some thousands more than Portu gal, including the Azores and Maderia; nearly treble the population of tiefvial more than double that of Bulgaria; three-quarters of a million more than in Holland; more than Swedon, or Norway, or Switzerland.” “And yet,” adds the same p iper “this splendid capital, tlio most populous and wealthy city the world has ever seen, is practically with out a government.” Plant Growth Viewed as to Time. Plants are arranged in three groups as to their period of existence, namely: Annual, biennial, perennial; that is, xv: e'.lier tliay 1 ive for one, two, or more than two years. The natural beginning of a seed-bearilig t latit is thegroxvtli from the seed, or germination. The early li e of all plants in the three groups is very much the same. It is an en.arge n.ent of the embryo, or young plantlet, that was formed in tho seed beh re it, Was separated from the mother p’ant. TIPs first growth is at the expense of food that was packed away with the embryo, either within or around its thickened seed leaves, and both the p’ant and the food that is to nourish its first growth are surrounded by protective coverings, called the seed coats. Germi nation, though a complicated chemico vital process, is in essence the forc ing of the young plant from its sur rounding coverings and the establish ment of ii elf in the soil and tlie sunshine. TIP- is a ]> oct'ss that is common to all plan s that gov Horn seel-, 'the be g n dug of an inilepend mt existence is ti.e !oi mal on o a see l, and with the see ls the cycle is completed. '1 he aim o! u cry plant is the multiplication and per e-nation o; its kind, and as the seed is tho common loan in which plant units are east off, it is clear that in the formation of seed we fiaxe the end toward which vegetation tends. in tli ■ annual plant the whole round of life is comj leted in a single year; ft germ nab s, develops its system of roots, stems and leaves, produces its lowers and perfects its offspring—the seed, all with n the compass of a single year. With this work done the old plant dies. In the biennial the method is somewhat different. The first year is devoted to the work of accumulating material out of wlii h the plant makes its seeds t lie follow ing year. Compared w tli the annual there is an unusual de velopment of roots and foliage, and to ward 1 lie end of simmer, a storing up of a large amount of concentrated lood in some i art of the plant. Contrast the barley plant with its short life of a lew months, and simple straightforwardness in all its process's, with the carrot, turnip or beet, which has a large root system and many leaves, for the first year, and an accumulation of starch, sugar, etc., in tlie main root, at the end of the eason. No seeds have been formed, and the end of the plant's exist ence has not been reached. 'The next season the fleshy root sends up a flower stem, and the store of organic matter, starch, etc., that was made the previous season is used up in the formation and perfecting a large number of seeds. The original plant loses its life in the production of many offspring or seeds. In the third class is included all of our trees and shrubs, and a vast number of herbs that are known by the general term of perennials. They grow on from year to year, and in most eases have no definite time in which to com plete the cycle. The first year of the young tree, maple or oak, is materially Uiiierent lrom that of the annual oats or Iftennial beet; its time for getting ready for the production of seed is lengthened out through several years. After the time for the bearing of offspring has come, centuries may pass before death ensues, in each year of whi h, if condi t ons are favorable, seeds may he formed. The process may be so slow that more than a single season is re quired for the growth and perfection of a seed. —American Agriculturist. —The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts is said to own the finest collection of costumes in the United States. The Money-Order System. The Superintendent of the Money- Order Division of the Post-office Depart ment sent out on Saturday an order that hereafter, xvhert a money-orddf lias re mained sixty days irt a post-office with out payment beitjg demanded, the post master Bhalt send tt private riotiee to the payee, it his address is known, inform ing him of the fact and giving the name and address of the remitter. The payee is requested bv the circular to present the corresponding order for payment, if it is in his possession; or, if it lias not been received, to obtain it, if praetica* ble, front the remitter, arid, lit tile event of its loss in transit or otherwise, to sug gest to the remitter that he make appli cation for a duplicate. This ciircdlar is a nw departure in tho policy of the Money-Order Divis oil. arid is one that ought to have been made years ago. Had it been adopted on the start, there would not now be in the Treasury to tile credit of tlm money order system the great Slim of over il milliott and a quarter Of dollars, the act- Oretiott df nioiiey-drVier.s fiCnuiinitig un paid. Not a dollar of this fund belongs to the Government. It belongs to peo ple who paid for orders, which, largely through the defects of the postal sys tem, and and not reach the person? to whom they were sent. It may safely be said that nine-tenths of this sum could have been made to reach the payees, or could have been re'ununi to the remftters, had not a policy 7 of concealm mt been adopt ed. Instead of seeking earnestly either to pay the money to the payees or re turn it to the remitters, a rule xvas adopted forbidding a postmaster, Under penalty of dismissal, to furnish the very information noxv ordered to be given by the new circular. If the department is content with the present step, it will fail ti do all that it should do to stop such a wrongful deten tion of the people's money. It is evi dent that the payee of an unpaid order hiavbe out of reach alter sixty days, and so may never receive his notice. In such a case, after the lapse of another thirty days, the remitter should be no tified that the money he has deposited remans unpaid. As of course the payee has the first claim to payment, it would be necessary to provide that some set time—perhaps six months ad ditional—should elapse before a repay ment xvas made to tho remitter. NOi* should the effort to be honest stop here. Every means should be taken by publication of lists and otherwise faith fully to disburse the fund now on hand before passing a law to cover it into the Treasury. In ever, oilier respect j(hc money-order syst an is a pre cision aud effect veuess, in the matter of this lapsed order fund it is probably less at fault than any other sys tem in the world, and the step it has now taken is one in advance of most, other systems. Tint nothing can be said in favor of covering such a lund into the Treasury until every means has been exhausted to find the real owners cf it. —Washington Cor. N. Y. Evening Post. ± Stick to the Broomstick. Did you ever sqe a woman throw a stone at a hen? it is one of the most ludicrous scenes in every-day life. We recently observed the process —indeed we paid more attention than the hen did, for she did not mind it at all and laid an egg the next day as if nothing bad happened. In fact, that hen will now know for the first time that she served in the capacity of a target. The predatory fowl had invaded the pre cincts of the flower bed, and was in dustriously pecking and scratching foi the nutritous seed or the early worm, blissfully unconscious of impending danger. The lady now appeared upon the scene with a broom. This she drops and picks up a rocky fragment of the Silurian age, then makes her first mis take—they all do it—of seizing the pro jectile with the wrong hand. '1 hen, with malice aforethought, she makes the further blunder of swinging lier arms perpendicularly instead of horizontally —thereupon the stone fiies through the air, describing an irregular elliptical curve, and strikes the surface of the e titli as far from the hen as the thrower stood at the time, in a course due west from the | same, the hen then bearing by the compass north-north-east by half cast. At the second attempt the stone narrow ly missed the head of the thrower her self, who, see ng any further attempt would be suicidal, did what she might have done first, started after the hen with an old and familiar weapon. The moral of which is: Stick to the broom stick. —Providence Herald. A Frightful Leap. The other night a passenger changing cars at Harper’s Ferry was leaning a:pain-t the railing on the river side, when a train came along, and, fearing he might not be safe, he sprang lightly over the railing, having mistaken the river, as he afterward stated, for a meadow. His stunning amazement mav be better imagined than described when, after a fall of thirty or forty feet, he sank in ten feet of muddx, sxvilt running water. He. however, had suffi cient presence of mind to keep his head above water, and was carried down to the bridge, where he drifted against a pier, and, climbing to a ledge, called for help. When he was rescued he re fused to tell anything about himself. Fortunately, the river was high, as gen erally the spot where he fell is bare, and iiad it been so then he would have been killed. —A writer in Ysletta, El Faso Coun ty, Tox.. e aims that place was ,'ettled as early as 1540, and that the and eds to the ■ hutch property in the place ore 150 years old. TERMS— SI.OO pr Annum Grietly in Advance. Professional Wailings Over Funerals. In the wilds of Kerry Patch, upon the rickety door of a little cabin, is marked this legend: : Corps ; : w siskin ; done here. The Town Talkrir does not often get within the metes and bounds of the Kingdom of Kerry, but of late his busi ness has taken him through the settle ment, as a short cut, very frequently, and each time he has read and pondered this announcement. Was it true that this “xVashin’ ” was done there: and, in that case, did the friends of the depart ed bring the “corps” around to this place, and were these peculiar facilities for tho prosecution of the business? Or did thd statement mean that parties having a “corps’’ could here find a pro gressive valet do chambrC for the dead? There was somothingso delightfully lugu brious in the affair that one day I tapped at the door, and entered. I was met by a Withered old crone, who told me that slid was “Missus” McDougal, and in quired what she could do for me. “I’m told that you attend to the wash ing of the dead.” “Yes,” said she, “and I do it cheap.” “What Is your charge?” “One dollar, and I furnish all me own tools—sponges and the like.” “Well, I don’t happen to have any remains just now,” said I, “but it’s always well to be looking around. How is business with you?” “it’s very poor, sir. Times was when I could make $lO a week as aisy as you’re seltin’ in that chair; now, if I catches .$3 a week ’l’m well satisfied. You know I’m a keener, and keeners is exti’y. 1 generally make $1 a week now keenin’ ” “What is ‘keenin’?” “ ‘Keenin’—why, cryin’ for the dead, you know. There’s some of us as was keendrS in the ould country, and we gathers around the corpse and starts the keen, and then the others they jine in.” “Is the keen any differe.it from any other cry?” “ Different! I should say it was, sir. Why, the keen goes right to the heart. This is the right keen,” and she bent over, and swaying her body from side to side, began a most dolorous and de spairing howl, which she accentuated by clapping her hands, and which I can compare only to a wild and grief-strick en hysteric. Sometimes it dropped to a low moan, then rose and rose until it culminated in a shriek. It was the queerest, saddest thing I ever heard in my life. In parts it had turns of the German jodel; again it ran up and down like an operatic roulade. Really, it was a work of art —savage art —but certainly art. l’ut upon the stage, it would draw with any specialty act I ever saw. “We does that in the house,” she said, “and out at the graveyard, and generally 1 get a pound of tea and sugar, or a dollar or two, if 1 gel it worked up well. There’s no good keen ers in this country at all. The best are in the South of Ireland, specially in the (lounty Kilkenny. To hear it right you ought to have a dozen goin’ at once. I tell you it comes out grand then. But these people here can’t keen—they try it, but they’re no good; they can’t tell good keenin’ when they hear it.” Prom ising certainly to employ the old lady on the very first occasion that 1 wished any keening done, I withdrew, convinced that there are points which we could give even to t lie old Egyptians in the art of funeration.— St. Louis Spectator. Cetewayo’s Flick. The “click’’ which some writers have noted as a curiosity in tlie speech of Cetewayo and his suite is not peculiar to the Zulu tongue. It is a character istic of many barbarous languages, though the clicking of the llffttentots seeitis to be the most elaborate, or at all events the best known. Mr. Gust, In a paper published by the English Society of Arts, says: “The great feature of the (Hottentot) language is tlie existence of four clicks, formed by a different po sition of tlie tongue: the dental cli k is almost ident cal with the sound of in dignation not infrequently uttered by Europeans: the lateral click is the sound with, which horses are stimulated to action; the guttural click is not un like the popping of a champagne cork; and the palatal click is compared to the cracking of a whip. He adds that the Bushman, in addition to the four clicks o the Hottentot language, has a fifth, sixth, and sometimes a seventh and an eighth click. It is interesting to note that philological authorities declare that the Hottentot is entirely distinct from other languages spoken by black races, and is of kin to the Hamitic lan guages of white races of North Africa. Borins! ance, the Kabyles, or Berbers, of Algeria click. Mr. Barclay (in his “Mountain Life in Algeria’’) was, we believe, the first to remark this elocu tionary habit among them. He under stood their “click’’ to express assent, and when several Kabyles “assented to gether, he says, it was “like so many Distols beiiur cocked.” London Globe. —Peach fritters, served with cream and sugar, are an excellent substitute for pastry at dmner.
