There is no trace ’ of Easter as a ; Christian festival to be found in the

It may still be new* to nome that for many year* Easter occurred at -differ*:period* in different countries. Jp 387 h.story tell* us that the churches of Gaul kept Easter March 21; the Italian -Aur hes April IS; while in Egypt that ■m* year :t was a week later. April 25.! Th* ffsorrepanry or irregularity despite the fact that sixty-tvs* years previous. 1 1® 325. the Nicen* Council had attempted settle the matter once for all, and thenceforth to hare the whole church, j worth, south, east and west, celebrate ■ Easter on one and the same day, and that • day to be Sunday. k*et ft was more than three hundred ■ years before the change became anything ■ like universal; then, in 689, the whole of ' the Western churches fell into line. England being the last to accept the rule. These differences of reckoning were not reconciled completely until 1752; then N. £-, or New Style, was adopted by the United Kingdom its place of O. S.. or Old Style, and the Julian calendar, after its long struggle against innovation, sueeumbsd to the Gregorian. • The Russ.an, Grecian and Oriental Churches. the so-called "Eastern Churches." still cling to the Julian or "imreformed calendar." so that their Easter does wot fall uptoi the same day as our*. One of the earliest traditions of Easter has been expressed as follows: “Ever since that Slewed night. When Death bowed down to rhe Lord of tvght. The eggs of that sweet bird changed their hue, Aud bum with red. and gold, and blue. Reminding mankind in their simple way Os the holy marvel of Easter day.” Allegorically. red symbolizes the blood •f Christ shed to save sinners; blue is typical of the promises he made that imbue n* with hope; gold, as a reminder of the treasures laid up in heaven: white. [ the purity of the cleansed soul. "That sweet bird" refers to the legend that when our Lord was brought to the •epulcher and tenderly laid therein a bird wi* brooding in motherly fashion over her eggs in a nest set high in the branches •f a tree, which lovingly shaded hi* last earthly home. When this hitherto merry *ong»:cr, crooning tender motherly hope* ever her unmatched children, saw the crucified Ixrd borne by Joseph and laid in bis rock-hewn cradle, her happy notes gbangod to wails. Through sunlight and atsefc.icss she ceased not to sing hopeless farg<-«; then through the dens- gloom came the wh.te glimmer of angels' robes, and wddcnly a peace that passed all understand, ng entered the breast of the sorrow-

When this bleat bird saw the Christ, th* victor over life and death, com* forth she 1 then witnesaed th* first glad Eaater: her I song of woe was transformed into that ' of joy, and th* Jubilant bird song fuse and i fell on the reentrant air: “Ho U ri*en! li* I* risen! Rejoice. all rejoice!” When the angel heard thi*. and noted bow It called Into It* chorus the note* fr-<m all bird life, and that all nature, the rock*, the leave*, th* twig* and branch** of the shrub* and tree* chimed In. he saM: "Sweet bird, be forever ble*t: thy*e!f, thy egg*, and thy moss-covered neat.” A* Eaater r*pre*ent* a new birth into the beat hfe of all.

There i< a beautiful legend of Judaean \ I origin that after the Saviour rose fr.>m j I the tomb, the place* where he trod were !

From these field* we have our bulbs for the greenhouse or Lome. They accommodate themselve* to varied conditions. If wanted at Christmas or Easier time, the bulb* should be planted from the Ist of September to the Ist of December, in five or six-inch pots. The soil should be three parts rotted sod and one-f nrth wen pitted stable manure. Press the bulb* well down in the soil, covering them half an inch.

They can be forced faster by increasing the ; heat. In very cold climates the potted bulbs can be placed in the cellar instead . of the cold frame. Do not repot, bnt add j liquid manure if needed. When the bulbs are done flowering let them rest and ripen. . by not watering them, for about two month*: they will then flower a second ‘ time. The outdoor cultivation is very | easy. They will *tand our northern winter*. with a deep cover of litter and leaves, and reward the small care they need with a crown of pure white lilies lasting many days. Resurrection.

A pretty story is told of Margaret of Austria, who. in company with the Duke of Savoy, attended a rustic egg-dance, where the young people were betrothed at Easter after they had danced a diflicalt figure through a hundred eggs scattered ou the ground. If they danced the measure three times without breaking an egg. they were considered betrothed. Here among the happy rustics, the lovely princess j>ermitted her noble adorer to lead her three times through the egg-waltz, when she said, sweetly blushing, “We will adopt the cuetom of the country," and they were forthwith engaged.

EASTER i* muA older than Christianity. The very name by which we know the day i* identical with that of the ancient Saxon goddess of Spr.ng. Easter or Eostrr. The AngloSaxon name for April » Easter m-nth. Taking advantage of the coincidence of the Christian festival in point of time with that of the yearly feast in honor of rhe Saxon goddess, the early missionaries gave a Christian meaning to the vdvservance of the day. but it ha* ever retained i it* ancient name. Easter wa* one time called tbe Christian passover. because the Jewish pwsover occur* about the same date and early convert, from Juda.cm celebrated Easter and the psssover a* on* festival. •The primitive Christian*,” we are toW. "when they met on this day. saluted each other with the word* ‘Christ is arisen.* to wb:A answer was made. ‘Christ is arisen indeed, and hath appeared unto Sjn->n.‘ "

This custom :* still observed in the Greek I Church. "Indeed." to quote a foreign writer, “all : rhe ceremonies attending the observance • 1 of Easter were at first exceedingly simi pie; but in the early part of the fourth i ; century a decided change was brought I I about. Constantine, naturally vain and i I fond of p?-ade. signalized hi* love oft. - I ■ p ay by ce.ebrating this festival with ex- , .raordinary pomp. Vigil*, or night watches, were imtHnted for Easter Eve, l ar which the people remained in the | | chnr<-he* until midnight. The taper* which it was customary to burn at this ' time did not satisfy His Majesty, bu’ huge prilar* of wax were used instead, and not only in the cbuix-hes, but all over the : city, were they placed so that tlieir brilliancy at night should far exceed the light . | of day. Not kneeling in token of humility, bnt ! standing erect with arm* outstretched and | | faces looking to heaven, to express trium;rtrant peace, the early Christian* preyed during the fifty days between Ender and Pentecost, and no song* but those of joy and gratitude were beard. Between Easter and Pentecost file time was coaaidered tbembet ausp.<-w> O s-.a the whole year I for love-making and marriages, and tfesa* two holy days were the best on whieb to baptize children. < if all the Easter ewstoms. that of esior- ; ing and making presents of eggs seems the { only distinctive ~ne that has found a place lin our time and country. On the first day I of Easter week in Pari*, everybody pre» • setrts every one else with a little present I emblematical of aa egg. which is km»wn i aa a Paschal egg loeufs des Psque). Among a people so ingenious as the Parisians, an opportunity of this sort is Jit- ’ erally a "God-seud." Egg-shaped article* I are t<» be bad of all conceivable, and some ‘ inconcetvable, form* and material*. One would think the once imperial eagle of France had summoned all the birds of Ae air to come to Paris, build their nests in. shop window*, and there deposit their egg*; for. go where you will, yon will see eggs, from the size us a caraway comfit, such as is found in the nest of the hummingbird. to one as large as a bowl, or an ostrich's or emu's egg. A lone freak—a banker In Wales—spends much of bis time and money In ' collecting doors through which illustrious persons passed In some time or another.

They direct tbe President to ' -equ<-*t Spain to grant local •elf-govern-ment to Cuba, and In ca»» Spain refu*** tbe President i* authorised to u*« th* military and naval force* in taking po»<e**ion of Cuba *nd bolding It until *elf- ! government i« e»tabli»hed by th* Cuban >eopl*. The House Committee on Elec•ion* of President and Vice-Prewident reported favorably th* bill Introduced by Mr. Corli**, of Michigan, providing ! for tbe election of Senator* by direct vote >f tbe people. Some amendment* of minor j mportanc* were adopted. Tbe que*tk>n of reforming the fee system of tbe L'nited State* District Attor- | neya and Marshals occasioned much de- \ bate in the Senate ednreday. Mr. ILrar ' opposed the change from fee* to salaries by mean* of an appropriation bill, a* it wa* a large subject, needing separate reatment. Mr. Allen il'- pj of Nebraska vttacked the high salaries. He declared : that the office* of District Attorney were : given frequently in payment of political ! lebt*. and instead of requiring a high iegree of legal talent the place* aonsetime* went to ”»hy*ter»" who could not -am a living out of office. Mr. George Dem.) of Mississippi attacked the entire ' policy of giving high *alarn-» and showed that the llorernor* and Attorney General, of State* received les* by half than th* bill proposed allowing Federal District Attorney* Mr. Allen also criticised the provision allowing the Attorney General to designate the number of Deputy Marshal*. He »poke agaigot the "horde f officeholder*.” Under Buchanan the Government spent $3O.000,0()0 annually and now it is $500,000,000. In that time the population had doubled, but tbe expense* had increased tenfold. Officer* were thrusting their hand* into the trea*- | ury and by hook and crook, mainly by l crook, seeking to increase their salaries. : The purpose of thi* provision wa* to add | to the offices controlled by an executive fficer. Mr. Hoar responded warmly that 1 the Senate could not waste its time inves- ’ tigating the details of the number of Deputy Marshal* in each of the »eventyveven districts in the United States. If ■ it did it would become a laughing stock. I If the Government could not trust the Attorney General with thi* duty then the American Government bad better »hut i up shop and apply to some Populist club I to carry on its affair*. After an extended I debate the salaries for District Attorneys and Marshals were agreed to a, reported. with a few minor ch.vuge*. The legislative appropriation wa* not completed when at 530 tbe Senate went into I executive session and soon after adjourned. The House discussed naval appro- : priation. The Senate spent most of Thursday on the legislative appropriation bill, but did not complete owing to Mr. Sherman’* motion to strike out the proposition for the change from fee* to salaries for United State* district attorney* and marshal* A joint resolution was adopted allowing ex-Pre*ident Harrison to accept decorations from Brax;! and Spain. The joint resolution was passed providing for tbe appointment of a commission under the , direction of the Secretary of War for the I preliminary surrey, with plans, specific*- ' tions and approximate estimates of cost i thereof, for the construction of a ship I --ansi of approved width and depth, from ■ the lower shore of Lake Michigan to th* Wabash river, and for the further investiI nation of the practicability of the con- ' struetion of such waterway. The naval ■ appropriation bill was passed by the House without substantial amendment. Tbe bill carries SSI,CII.OM and author'xes the construction of four battle ships and fifteen torpedo boat*, the total cost of which will be in the neighborhood of $33.000,000. The Senate indulged in an acrimonious political debate Friday. The controversy arose over Mr. Hili'* motion to strike from the legislative appropriation bill tbe proposed < hange of the date of assembling the New Mexico Legislature from De<?ember to May. Mr. Hill bitterly denounced the change as a political trick, Mr Elkins protested. The debate took a wide range. Senators Gorman, Faulkner, Cockrell and other Dem.icrat* attacking the provision as political, while Senators Elkins. Carter. Cullom and other Republican Senators defended it. Mr. Cullom sought to table Mr. Hili'* motion, but a ‘ motion to thi* effect failed by a vote of 21 to 29. whereupon Mr. Cullom yielded to the Hiß motion and the New Mexico provision wa* struck out. The Senate passci the legislative appropriation bill, carrying S2I.SOOJ)W. Aside from provid ing the usual appropriation*, the bill ii important in effecting a reform of the ayatem of compensation for United State* District Attorneys and Marshals, sab arie* being substituted for fee*. The appropriation committee attempted to take up the sundry civil appropriation bill in the Hoase. but the members who were interested in bill* on tbe private calendar defeated them by a vote of 142 to 77. Empei-or William's Bumps. An English phrenologist who linn ex amined the head of Emperor William IL. says that there Is nothing unusual about it. "It Is," he says, "a medium head, of the military type, such as can be found by the score In tbe army. The bumps of self-love and combativeness are abnormally developed. He will never let himself lie stopped by an obstacle. There is no power on earth that could exercise tbe least pressure upon him. His self-love Is so great that It would not surprise me if he tohould proclaim himself Infallible. He would be perfectly , Incere In no doing."
