THE YANKEE COUNT RUMFORD j A New Englander'* Huu<ie*» In Europe It) the Lust Century, Dr. George E. Ellis, In a paper on Count Rumford In flic Atlantic, thus describes a portion of that remarkable New Englander's career in Europe: "With the singular felicity of what seemed luck in so many Incidents of his extraordinary career, while attending a military parade at Strasburg he drew the notice, the curious interest and then the proffer of hospitality of the French Field Maishal Prince Maximilian of Deuxtouts, in 1700 made elector and in lso.‘> King of Bavaria. This was the decisive hour In Thompson's splendid fortune. The Prince asked h'm to visit Munich with a letter to his uncle. Elector Charles Theodore, who proved, till his death in 1700, the devoted admirer, constant friend, and grateful patron of Thompson. The elector invited the handsome and accomplished officer of the age of 30 years, trained in workshop, cabinet, and field, to enter his service, noth military and civil, at a most critical period in the condition of Bavaria, which was a prize in contest by the then contending imperial continental powers. Thompson needed to obtain the pcrmjssjitfa of his sovereign, and on a visitTo England for the purpose he not only received it, but also the honor of knighthood, Feb. 23, 1784. With the prestige of honors, title,and half-pay, this soldier of fortune, in the best sense of • the epithet, returned to Bavaria, his abilities, marvelous versatility, and high ambition accompanied by tldelity and unwearied zeal in the most exacting labo's for works of reform and improvements. adapting him to the elector's pressing needs in his own imperiled and convulsed dominion. It may be that Thompson had the repute of the then deceased Franklin to inspire him, if he needed anything beyond the capacities and purposes found in himself. Radical and extensive reforms, all excellent in intent and effect; sage devices and schemes of homely benevolence curiously connected with severely scientific inventions and experiments; shrewdly sagacious measures for grappling with the evils and frauds of tramps and mendicancy and the mischiefs of a standing aimy; the invention and first practical and successful trial of plans for dealing with poverty and almsgiving, which have since been adopted, and are now followed to such purpose in every well-ordered community—these, briefly and most inadequately started in condensed summary, were the directions of Thompson’s zeal and transcendent success. To these he gave eleven years of the closest application, exhaustive of his own fine constitution, before he made another visit to Eng'and. He mastered the French and German languages, was regarded as a man ol rare and universal accomplishments, and by his prudence and affability conciliated the jealousy of those whi might grudge the trusts and honors bestowed on a foreigner. The elector’s confidence and gratitude knew no bounds. He gave Thompson a palatial edifice, a military staff, servants, and blood horses, and constituted him major general ol cavalry, privy conductor, chamber lain, and head of the war and police departments. When, in an interval of vacancy, the elector was vicar ot the empYre he made Sir Benjamin count of the holy Roman empire, with the order of the White Eagle. It is pleasant to repeat that Thompson, whom we must now call Count Ruinford, should have chosen for title the name of the modest New England village where bis first advancement came to him as a rural schoolmaster.

Quite a Feat, An officer in the Treasury at Washington, who was a resident of that city at the time of the commencement of the “little dispute,” witnessed the hasty return of the panicstricken Union troops after the first battle of Bull Run. He says: Thc whole city was in a great state of excitement, and for a few hours everything seemed completely demoralized. Each man had some awful story to tell, and had nc trouble in finding an audience to listen to his recital. Among other veracious accounts was that given by a colored teamster from a Virginia regiment, who attracted quite a crowd of eager listeners in Willard’s Hotel. “De fust ting we knowed, we see de sogers cornin’, an’ I should t’ink dar war millions on millions. De cap’n ob de regiment singed out, ‘Drap down dar! Drap down dar!’ But law! 'twa’n’t no use! De bung-shells come an’ took dar heads clear off! “Dis chile tink him dead for suah; an’ in de confusement Massa Gibbons’s mules done got loose wid six niggers on ’em, an’ run smack an’ smoove into Massa Linkum’s lines, an’ captured ourselves!” Friend of the Family. In the south of England the pig is the family pet and pride, and in Hampshire especially his position is as important as that of “the gentleman that pays the rint" of Irish cottages. A woman in that county who was dying, after a long illness, expressed her mournful regrets that she had never seen the present pig, and added that if her husband had known in time how much she wished iK he would have carried it up to her bedchamber. Now, however, it was too large and heavy. Indeed, the local mind seems to be engaged in constant speculation upon this useful animal. A clergyman who wondered whether his flock understood the long words of his sermon, asked one of them if he knew what was meant by "predestination.” "WeH, sir," returned thc laborer, “1 believe -It’S something about the innards of a pig!” • One old man Is fond of describing his "missus,” as he first saw her at her confirmation in a great cathedral. "And did you get acquainted with her at once, and ask her to marry you?” was the question. “No, no,” said he. "I waited till I had two pigs in my sty, and then, sir, 1 knew I was a match for any woman!” If you are fond of pickled pigs feet* better see that the feet are not pickled In unmentionable tilth while growing I Cleiun out the pqis. ! tr ‘ , t-. • x • i X , '

AMUSEMENT. It I* tho Ft rat N«ci?Ni*ity <»r Civilized Man. Many eminent men have agreed with Voltaire that amusement is the first necessity of civilized man. "Vive la bagatelle’’’ was Dean Swift’s favorite motto. He understood the value of trifles. Man grows strong by rest as well as toil. Ilia intervals ot' material work, played whist. Robault,“a Cartesian philosopher of the seventeenth century, wandered from shop to shop to observe the mechanics at labor. Goldsmith tells us of a famous painter whose delight,during his confinement in prison for debt, consisted in drawing the fin es of his creditors in caricature. King Loii>s XIII. of France spent much of his time in catching small birds or making jets d'eau with quills. It is said of George Herbert that "the one delight of his life In the way of recreation was music, setting and singing his own hymns and anthems to viol and lute. ” Sir Joshua Reynolds used to amuse himself in his last days with a tame bird. The favorite recreations of the late Field-marshal Count Von Moltke were chess and whist, which he rarely missed playing after dinner. He was also an authority on the culture ot roses, and possessed one of the finest and most unique collections in Germany. Sir William Temple relaxed his mind from the affairs of state by 'clipping his apricots or cultivating his tulips. Gardening was an exercise in which he much indulged. Other great Then have also loved gardening; it was Martin Luther's favorite amusement. Archbishop Whately was seen to most advantage at Redesdale, his country seat near Dublin, gardening, tree-cutting,graft-ing, and romping with his children and dogs. With him, as with many eminent men, Bismarck, Sir Walter Scott, Hogarth, Rubens, 'Henry Irving. and others, dogs were great favorites. We all know how Cowper cheered his melancholy hours with the gambols of his pet hares, "Tiny, Puss, and Bess. ” While Kepler worked out the secret of the heavenly bodies, Ygoing over his calculations sixty times,” he nowand then turned aside to write almanacs tor his daily bread. So the weary worker took his recreation. It used to be a pet amusement with Moliere, the French dramatist, to ensconce himself in the corner of a barber’s shop and there silently watch the air, gestures, and grimaces of the village politicians, who in those days, before ■coffee houses were introduced into France, used to congregate in this place of resort. The fruits of this study may be easily discerned in those original sketches of character, from the middle and lower classes, with which his pieces everywhere abound, and which made his plays so popular among his countrymen. Kant, the celebrated German philosopher, found his only relaxation in daily walks.during which he studied the phenomena of nature. Some of the most learned writers have found their relaxation in composing works on odd subjects. Doctor Johnson somewhere observes that it seems to have been in all ages the pride of art to show how it could exalt the low and amplify the little. To this ambition perhaps we owe the frogs of Homer, the bees of Virgil, the butterfly of Spenser, the quincunx of Sir Thomas Browne, and the "little celandine” of Wordsworth. Down the Pass. An English resident in India when hog-hunting one day was riding down a terribly steep hill, where he had an experience which few would care to repeat- The pass down to the plaits was exceedingly steep and dangerous. In fact, it was nothing more than a foot-path, yarrow and precipitous, and no one had ever ridden down it. My friend proposed that we should make the attempt, and so we started, I on a hotse which had but one eye, and that, unfortunately, toward the hill. On riding round a sharp turning in a very precipitous part of the pass, we came upon a white stone. My horse sbied at it, and as he wheeled he saw, with his good eye, the gulf below. By a great effort he threw himself back on the path, with bls hind-quarters dangling over the drop. I felt him gradually slipping back, but a branch ot a tree overhung us, and by standing up in my stirrups I managed to reach it The horse, relieved of my weight, staggered back to the path, and I, with the help of the branch, did the same. This all occurred in less than a minute’s time. 1 was too occupied to see how awful it was, but mv friend, who was leading, told me it was one of the most frightful scenes he ever beheld. A Matter ot Word*.

The ready acceptance by lawyers of fees and "retainers” from bad men, and especially from those whom the public feel to be working against their interests, is often the occasion of sarcastic remarks. A certain prominent lawyer was asked by an acquaintance if the report were true that he had gone into the service of a corporation which had been suspected, on pretty good evidence, of bribing members of a legislature. "Oh,” said the lawyer, ‘Tve not gone into their service. I have simply agreed not to join the other side.” “And rou have taken a fee for that?” * “Oh, naturally they sent me an honorarium.” “Ah. I am glad to know it was that I might have got the idea that it was a dishonariiim —Youth’? Companion. Public Men and Cartoon*. Roscoe Conkling was almost the only public man of note who hated cartoons wherein he figured. The sight of his nose in high colors always made Evarts grin. Ben Butler collected every one where hjs game eye cut a figure. Depew dotes on them. Senator Hill says every one of them means votes for him, and when the report went forth that Pfeffer had trimmed his vagrant beard the caricaturists all agreed that he had shorn himself of what reputation he had acquired. "That's a very bright baby you have there,” said a man to a hidy, “Well,” replied she, "he ought to be bright he's a son.”

Broken Hr»rl« ■ IWlblllty. Broken heart* haye trone out of fashion with th* tliri'fi-voltino' novol and fainting spell*. Th' idrl with the hurt In her heart nowadav* forgets it. or pretends to, in the glorii'* of a career. She take* to typewriting, or the reformation ot tho coolies, or women'* club*, and rather enjoys tho pain In an esthetic, sort of way, because It mean* "growth," l and I* experience and all that Now with tho perversity of fate there has arisen a prophet in Israel who justifies the old romancer* In killing off their disappointed heroines. From the recently published letter* of Sir George I’aget, who Is not a romancer, it I* Interesting to learn that a broken heart!* not a sentimental figure of speech. Great grief causing a sudden shock produce* actual rupture of the muscle* of that organ and death from exhaustion may follow. Selene* is on. The statements made In scientific works as to the reasons of thing* are very often misleading. A work on popular science, for instance. *ays that the velocity of a tallow candle fired from a shotgun Is so great that the candle can be made to penetrate a pine board. The statement look* plausible to one who has never tried the experiment, but when once tho effort is made to shoot a candle through a board, the experimenter, on examining bls target, will find, instead of a hole, a lump of tallow as big as his list sticking to the board. Scientific explanations are very well In their way, but when it comes to an actual matter of fact no amount of science will make a tallow candle go through a board unless a hole has been previously bored for its reception. I Nora’* Balance. During theexcitemcnt of bank failures in Indianapolis, While watching the anxious crowd besieging tho doors of a bank that was supposed to be in danger was overheard the following dialogue between an Irish woman and her husband: “Nora, draw yer money out.” , “And sure. Pat, I won’t.” “But, Nora, you must.” “Faith and I won't draw me money out.” “Don’t yees know they'll loos yer toney.” “And sure ain’t they better able to ose it than me?” Patrick was overpowered with this trgument, and they left, apparently satisfied. A Sympathetic Parrot. Whooping-cough has been uncomfortbly intrusive in this city this winter. In one family up town three children were afflicted with that ailment at one time. They coughed and coughed and coughed, and the family pet, an intelligent parrot, took it Into his head to Imitate them. Whenever any one of the children coughed he would accompany it with a coughing paroxysm so natural that it was impossible to tell whether it was one of the children or the parrot that was coughing. The bird seemed to enjoy having the whooping-cough, and after awhile he clamored for medicine whenever he saw that it was being administered to tho children.—New York Times. What I* Money Weighed against that health it so often falls to buy? Dross indeed. While we can none of us claim a total exemption from that greatest of all Ills to which flesh is heir—Ul-health— we may do much to lessen the chances of incurring it, and this not alone by the adoption of such sanitary measures as are to be found in dally exercise, regular hours, prudence In eating and drinking, and a wholesome diet, bnt also oy resorting to judicious preventive medication when the system Is threatened by unhealthful Influences. For instance, resident* or sojourners in malarious localities should use Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters as a defense against chills and fever, and persons who incur much out-of-door exposure should employ it as a safeguard against rheumatism. Travelers in the tropics find It invaluable also as a means of arresting itver complaint and constipation, and counteracting the debilitating influence or a torrid climate. ••Turn bier.” Hasthe origin of this word as applied co the drinking glass ever been inqiured into? 1 have in mj' possession an old diary, kept by a great uncle of mine In the year 1803, in which occurs the following entry: ‘‘Rad a tew friends to dine, tried my new tumbling glasses: very,successful, all got drunk early. I have an indistinct recollection of my parents being in possession of one of these “tumbling glasses,'” a glass with a bottom somewhat similar to that of a soda-water bottle, so that one had constantly to keep hold of It when in use. Is it not probable that this, was the reason of such glasses being styled tumblers? —Notes and Queries. C atarrh Can't Be Cured With LOCAL APPLICATIONS, a* they cannot reach the seat of the disease.

Wanted a Bottle of Mallva. From a correspondence in possession of a local music firm it appears that words of three syllable* are not understood throughout the length and breadth of the State of Minnesota. Some time ago the firm sold a piston-valve cornet to a young man in the rural districts and shortly after a letter was received from him asking what could bodone to remedy the sticking of tho valves. A reply was sent to him stating that oil would gum and aggravate the difficulty and that a little saliva nroperly applied would be the easiest way to make the instrument work easily. But this seemingly lucid explanation was not appreciated, for in the course of a few days still another letter was received from the purchaser of the cornet inclosing 25 cents and say-, ing: “Inclosed find postal note for which please send me a bottle of saliva. Our drug store don’t keep it”—Minneapolis Times. The World 1* All Kight. Those who think the world is growing wor&e and that Satan is getting the upper hand in this country especially, should consider the fact that good people indulged in the same fears before most of us were born. About sixty years ago a somewhat typical minister of a Connecticut church made a visit to Boston and returned—a trip which was by no means as easy then as now. “Well, doctor.” said one of his parishioners to him. “do you bring us any news from Boston?” “Y’es,” he replied; “the Lord reigns,- and the devil is trying to.” That was the summary and upshot of the news sixty years ago; and so it"fS to-day. —Michigan Christian Advocate. The Retort That Cut. It was at a “swell” hop and everybody was in full-dress but one modest little fellow, and he seemed to think that he was being “guyed” on that account So during an intermission he stood np in the center of the floor and addressed the company as follows: “Ladies and gentlemen, I beg you will pardon my not appearing in full-dress this evening, but the fact of the matter is I have no dress suit of my own, and at every store in town I was told that their suits were all rented for this event” — New York Press. Who Was Dolly Varden? Dolly Varden was the heroine of Charles Dickens’ novel, “Barnaby Rudge.” She wore a gown of gay-col-ored and flowered print, with a pointed bodice, the skirt raised to show an underskirt of some solid material.
