THE SEA. Sba rick and of high degree, A poor and unknown artist he. “ Paint me,” she Mid, “ a view of the sea." So he painted the tea as It looked the day That Aphrodite arose from its spray; And it broke, as she gated on 1U face the while, Into its countless dimpled smile. What a poky, stupid picture 1 ” said she; M I don’t believe he can paint the sea.” Then he painted a raging, toesing sea. Storming with fieroewnd sudden shock. Wild cries, and writhing tongues of foam, A towering, mighty fastness rock. In its sides, above those leaping crests, The thronging sea-birds built their nests. “ What a disagreeable daub! ” said she. “ Why, it isn’t anything like the sea.” Then he painted a stretch of hot brown sand, With a big hotel on either hand. And a handsome pavilion for the band— * Not a sign of the water to be seen, Except one little streak of green. “ What a perfectly exquisite picture! " said she. “ It's the very image of the sea.” —The Century.

A CONJURER’S FEAT.

The signor was giving a series of highly successful performances in the city of Mobile; where (as he tells us in his autobiography) people came to consult him privately about love-affairs, matters of business and future events, thinking that one who could do such wonders must be able to unravel all the mysteries of life. It was a rather primitive, simpleminded community in those days. In vain he disclaimed the fortune-telling Eowers ascribed to him. It was still beeved that he could give the required information if he would. He was one day in the hall, preparing for the evening’s performance, when an elderly gentleman called upon him, and. with profound respect asked the honor of taking him by the hand. “ I saw your doings here last night,” said the visitor, “and let my tell ye, ’twas the most wonderfullest thing I ever did see ! I never laughed so in all my born days I” “I am glad you were pleased,” replied the signor politely. ‘ ‘ How you could take so many eggs out of a bag that had just been thrashed on the stage and trampled on, upset all my calc’lations ! And hew could you know that a stranger in the middle of the hall had a chicken hid under his coat ? I couldn’t see a feather of it till you called him up and pulled the squawkin’ critter out I” The signor smilingly listened to a good deal more talk of this sort, until the speaker came to the object of his visit. “They do say, signor, that there’s nothing you don’t know, or can’t find out if you try. And I’ve come to consult you”—the old gentleman looked cautiously about the hall, and lowered his voice—“on a question that I’d willingly give one of my fingers to unpuzzlo. ” “That’s probably a question I couldn’t unpuzzle if all my fingers depended on it,” replied the signor. “I’ve no such powers, outside of my own business, as many people suppose.” “Make this your business, and I’ll reward you well for it, ” said the visitor. “My name is Oatman. I live on my plantation in summer, and bring my family to town in winter. We bring only two servants with us, and they are old family servants, that I ean’t think would steal from us. ”

“You have been robbed?” suggested the signor.” “Now, how did you ever find that out ?” cried the planter, astonished. “You just told me,” laughed the signor. “ Not I!” chuckled the other, with a sagacious shake of the head. “I hadn’t come to that part of my story. But I see you read my thoughts before I can out with them. I have been robbed; in the strangest way 1” As every well-to-do planter carried his watch and dangling fob-chain, and as Mr. Oatman’s person showed none, the signor, who was fond of a joke, could not help answering, in fortune-telling fashion: “ Your watch has been taken 1” “ Now how could you know that ?” the simple-minded man exclaimed, in delighted surprise. “It was the first thing I missed. Then we made search, and found that my wife’s diamond ring was gone, and that over S2OO had been filched from my till.” “The thief must have been acquainted with the premises,” suggested the signor. “There, you hit it again 1” said the planter, with lively satisfaction. “You score one every time. He must know the premises, whoever he is ; and that’s the strange part of it. Servants faithful—Good Lord, they wouldn’t know what to do with the money and things if they had them ! Only our son and daughter living with us. A few intimate friends come in, that I trust as far as I’d trust myself. Now, whe could have robbed us ?”

The worthy Oatman aimed this question point-blank at the signor, who answered seriously that he could not telk “ You can tell! I’m sure you can tell!” the planter insisted stoutly. “ I haven’t come here without consulting my family. My wife and daughter both advised me to come. Only my son tried to dissuade me. He said you couldn’t know anything about such matters, and I would onl v be making a bad matter worse. But then he hasn’t seen your wonderful performances. ” A quick suspicion shot through the signor’s intuitive mind. “ Your son was right; he gave you good advice. I dare say he was quite anxious that you should keep away from me ?’’ “ Indeed he was I” said the planter. ‘ ‘ He was so worked up about it, I had to partly promise I wouldn’t come, before he would let me leave the house. He said I would make a fool of myself, and I said, ‘ Well, well, George, I won’t!’ He thought I meant I wouldn’t consult you. But what I really meant was—” “ That you wouldn’t make a fool of yourself,” the signor interrupted. “And here you’re doing it, I’m afraid, after all !” •“ No ! no 1” cried the planter, confidently. “ You just come around to ie house with me, examine the premises, and talk with the folks, and I’m positive you can guess the riddle, if you haven’t guessed it already. Ah !” he laughed, gleefully, “ I see by your eye you have guessed it 1” Indeed, the suspicion which had ent» red the signor’s mind had become al • most a certainty; and it was not without hope of being able to solve this mystery, to his own satisfaction if not to the planter’s, that he finally consented to visit the house.

He was introduced to the planter’s wife and daughter; saw the servants—a simple old negro and his wife; and was shown the room from which the valuables had been purloined. While he was thus engaged, a finelooking young fellow, but with a rather careworn face for one hardly yet out of his teens, came and stood in the doorway. “Ah 1 Signor, here is my son,” said Mr. Oitman, .slightly embarrassed. “You see, George, I—l—thought best to—vou won’t mind, my boy; for asking him it can’t do any hurt, if it don’t do any good.” “ All tight I” said George, carelessly. But the signor, who exchanged glances with him, saw that his lip twitched nervously, and that there was an anxious look in his eye. “ Your father has an extravagant notion of my poor abilities,” the signor remarked in a friendly tone. “ You haven’t witnessed my performances ?” “I haven’t had that pleasure,” the youth replied, dryly. “No doubt you have been more pleasantly employed. The city offers a good many attractions to a spirited young man; and I see by your looks.” the signor added, with a meaning smile, •• that

you are not one of those dullards who go to bed at dusk.” George smiled in a glassy sort of way, and seemed trying to bring put some careless reply, when his mother remarked, complainingly: ? “George keeps very late hours this winter. I’m so sorry ! for any one can see it isn’t good for him.” “He used to make calls with me, evenings,” said the sister. “But he never does, now-days. I can’t think what he finds to amuse himself so late, every night.” “I can think,” said the signor. “I know the city, an d I know young men. Fm sorry, George!” He looked the young man keenly in the eye, as he continued : «• If you had been in the habit of remaining at home nights, this theft never would have taken place 1” By the look, and the words, and still more by the tone in which the words were spoken, poor George must have perceived that his secret was in the signor’s possession. Still the truthful par - ents and affectionate sister remained free from the slightest suspicion of his guilt. “ I reckon that’s true, signor!” said the father. “ George is known to be a capital shot, and no burglars would ventture in the house when he was at home. Do you discover anything more ?” “ Being a stranger here,” the signor replied, “I can’t make up my mind at once. If your son should set about it, i ve no douot tie could clear up cue mystery very quickly; but 1 shall have to study over it awhile. ” Declining to say anything more definite, but promising that the family should hear from him if he succeeded io finding the lost treasures, he presently took leave, giving George a very significant look at parting. He had not been long at the hall, pondering over the painful problem he had been set to solve—haunted by the pale face of the guilty son—when the face itself appeared before him. “Ah, George 1” said the signor, kindly ; “I am glad to see you.” The youth came forward slowly, too much agitated to speak. Then, apparently touched by the signor’s sympathetic manner, he broke forth imploringly; “For mercy’s sake, sir, don t expose me 1” “My dear George 1” replied the signor, taking his outstretched hands, “I shall not expose you if I can help it. But let’s understand each other. Tell me all about it. ” “You know it all!” exclaimed the wretched youth, beginning to tremble and sob violently. “ I know something. You have fallen in with bad companions. But how could you—how could you deceive and wrong your own parents ?” “Because I am ’an idiot! because I am the most miserable, ungrateful, wicked son that ever had good parents to wrong!” said George, in a convulsion of remorse and despair. “ But I didn’t mean to rob them. ”

“I know,” said the signor. “You meant to return what you took. That’s what every well brought-up young man means when he takes the first step in crimes of this sort.” Truly I meant it!” George protested. “I took the money first, hoping to win back with it what I had lost at play. Then when I had lost that, I took the ring. Then, desperate fool as I was, I took the watch and pledged it. That led to the discovery. If it hadn’t been for that, all would have been well. ” “ How so ?” the signor inquired. “Last night the luck turned,” said George, “ and I won back a good part of what I have lost; enough to reeover the watch and ring and all the money I took from the till.” “ Is it possible?” exclaimed the signor, astonished. “I have it all here,” said George, touching his coat. “It was in my pocket when you came to the house; didn’t you know it?” The signor was ooliged to confess that he had not seen so far as that. “I was in distress, trying to invent some way of returning the things without being found out—trying to keep my father quiet—when he brought you in and spoiled all! Unless,” said George, with looks of entreaty,—“unless you will be merciful and help me?” *• I will help you on one condition, ” said the signor. “ Name it! I will do anything!” the youth eagerly promised. “I only ask you not to do a certain thing,” said the signor. “You know what it is—the greatest folly and sin a young man can be guilty of.” “ I know what you mean,” George reEhed. “Gambling. I have found out y experience what misery it leads to. And I had vowed that if I could only win ba,ck enough to save my honor, I would never—never —never play again! And I never will!”

“ Then trust me to make everything right with your father,” said the signor, again clasping the young man’s hand. “Will you leave all to me?” “ I shall be so glad to, if you will take the trouble,” said George. A few minutes later, relieved of his dreadful burden, with a lighter and more hopeful heart than he had carried •in his breast for days, he departed, leaving the signor to work out the delicate question in his own way. That afternoon the signor dispatched a note to Mr. Oatman, informing him that it was quite important he should be present at the evening’s performance. In due time, accordingly, the planter appeared with his whole family—wife and daughter and son—and took his place with them at the end of a seat, only a few steps in front of the performer. There was a crowded audience, and everything went off charmingly. The egg trick was repeated by particular request, and afforded as much amusement as ever. The signor allowed himself to be shot at, and caught the bullet in his teeth. Ladies saw their handkerchiefs cut Up and made into an omelette, and afterward restored to them neatly ironed and folded. A pair of doves were found in a lady’s bonnet, and a rabbit in an old gentleman’s hat. So the signor went through with his stock performances—all a delightful novelty then and there, though so familiar to other audiences in later times I At length he had occasion to borrow another hat. He stepped down to the seat occupied by the Oatman family, who were among his most interested spectators. “ Perhaps you will lend me yours. ” he remarked, “if I will promise to be careful of it. ” The planter handed his large and somewhat seedy hat with a broad smile. George looked on with bright eyes and a throbbing heart. The signor stepped back to his table, when, looking into the hat, he gave a start of surprise, and with a frown of feigned displeasure turned to address the audience.

“I have particularly requested,” he said, “ that gentlemen should be careful to empty their hats before handing them to me. One hat came into my hands, you noticed, half full of turnips. And now remark the incredible carelessness of the owner of this one I” So saying, he put his hand into the hat and drew out a gold watch, which he held by the chain. “ A hat seems a very unsafe place for carrying a watch; and why couldn’t the gentleman have taken the trouble to remove something so valuable before lending it to me? But what is here ?” Haying placed the watch on the table the signor shook the hat and turned it toward the audience, showing it be partly filled with loose bank-notes. These i to remove by the handful, plyfog . them on the table with the watch with many exclamations of sur-

prise, amid roars of laughter from the spectators. Then he shook the hat again to see if it was empty at last; and, hearing something rattle, fished out a ring. “A gold ring!” he exclaimed, holding it ud before the audience. “ A diamond ring!” letting it sparkle in the light. “Now, what a temptation this is to place before an honest conjurer ! I’ll have nothing more to do with this hat and its contents.” With these words he produced the climax of astonishment by handing the hat back to the owner with the banknotes crowded into it, and giving him the watch and ring. The most pleased and wonder-struck person present was probably the planter himself, as he showed the treasures lo his wife and children, and they recognized the genuineness of the articles. Perhaps George was not jso surprised as the rest, but he had reason to feel a keener joy than anybody else. Meanwhile the signor stepped back to the platform and said, with a bow : “Ladies and gentlemen, the evening’s performance is ended.” Mr. Oatman called on the conjurer again the next day, and urged him to accept a reward for the recovery of his property, and also to explain the way the thing was done. The signor declined to do either, saying that if he should explain his tricks to everybody who asked about them, he would soon have no surprises left for the public. The planter thanked him most heartily, and they parted the best of friends. The youth he had helped rescue from ruin also called, and begged to know how he could show his gratitude to the friendly conjurer. “There is only one way,” said the signor, taking him by the hand and looking earnestly into his eyes. “Be kind and true to your good parents and dear sister, and keep your promise never, never to fall into the odious vice of gambling again.” The youth renewed his vows, which the conjurer had the satisfaction, long afterward, of knowing had been faithfully kept. As for the planter’s family, we may be sure that they never ceased to think with gratitude of the wonderful Signor Blitz. Youth's Companion.

Thoroughness.

A young New Englander, whose knowledge was more showy than deep, went many years ago to teach a district school in Virginia. Among his pupils was a small, rather dull and insignificant-looking boy who annoyed him by his incessant questions. No matter what the subject under discussion, this lad apparently never could get near enough to the bottom of it to be content. One very warm August morning, the teacher, with no little vanity in a knowledge unusual in those days, began to lecture to the boys on the habits and characteristics of a fish which one of them had caught during recess. He finished and was about to dismiss the school, when his inquisitive pupil asked some question about the gills and their use.

The question answered, others followed concerning the scales, skin, flesh. The poor teacher struggled to reply with all the information at his command. But that was small, and the day grew warmer and the Saturday afternoon’s holiday was rapidly slipping away. “The school will now be dismissed,” he said, at last. “But the bones ! You have told us nothing about the bones ?” said the anxious boy. Mr. Dash smothered his annoyance and gave all the information he could command on shape, structure and use of the bones. “And now the school ” he began, “ What is inside of the bones ?” stolidly came from the corner where the quiet boy was sitting. Mr. Dash never remembered what answer he gave, but the question and his despair fixed themselves in his memory. Thirty-five years afterward he visited Washington and entered the room where the Justices of the Supreme Court were sitting. The Chief Justice, the most learned and venerated jurist of his day, was a man like St. Paul, whose bodily presence was contemptible. The stranger regarded him at first with awe, then with amazement. “ It is the boy who went inside of the fish’s bones !”ne exclaimed. If he had not tried to go inside of every “fish’s bones,” he would never have reached the lofty position which he held. It is the boy who penetrates to the heart of the matter who is the successful scholar and afterward lawyer, physician, philosopher or statesman. It is the man whose ax is laid to the root, not the outer branches, whose religion is a solid foundation for his life here and beyond.

Wasn’t Posted.

A grave-looking man in a brown coat tapped one of the most energetic dancers on the arm and requested a few minutes’ private conversation. “ Well, sir,” said the heated waltzer, after he had excused himself from his partner and elbowed his way into the dressing-room. “ Speak quick. What can I do for you ?” “I see you wear Feeley’s old-style knob extension,” said the grave man, earnestly. “ Now, that was all very well five years ago, but science, my dear sir, is always on the march.” “ What the blazes are you talking about ?” asked the round dancer, much mystified. “ Another great objection is the extreme weight of the old style. They are really no better than the solid wood. Now, why not try one of our latest improved, with Dutlicker’s patent attachment ?” “Patent what?” “Why, patent leg,” said the agent, blandly fishing out an order book. “Ours only weigh four pounds, and have the new side-pivot action, French - kicking spring and all the latest wrinkles. Only $45 by ex—” “ What the blazes do I want with a false leg ?” roared the other, much disgusted; “ I have got two real ones of my own.” “ Why, you don’t mean to say that you haven’t got a false leg ?” said the agent, much bewildered. “ No, sir—you can see for yourself,” and he held up his calves to be pinched. “False leg, indeed I” “ Then what in the name of thunder did you mean by staggering round in there just now like a pair of tongs in a fit ? Are you knock-kneed, or what ?” “ Why, you old fool,” retorted the young man, with deep scorn, “don’t you know anything ?' I was dancing the racket,” and he rushed off, consulting his programme, while the unsophisticated leg-man went around trying to convince the floor managers that a dangerous lunatic had managed to work his way in there somehow.— Derrick Dodd.

The date of the first invention of sewing needles is unknown. Their use was known to the ancient Egyptians, needles having been found in their tombs. They were of bronze and three or four inches in length. Pliny mentions bronze needles as in use in his day. The steel needle was introduced into England in the time of Elizabeth; but the process by which it was made was kept secret and the art was unknown till the year 1650, when it was revived by one Greeningin Buckinghamshire.

O’CONNELL’S READY WIT.

Bow It Him rwm Striking; Vlctorie*. At the Clare assizes in Ennis, two ’brothers, named Hourigan,were arrested for setting fire to a police barrack, the property of Darby O’Grady, Esq., an “ it was stated the barrack had been ignited by means of a jar of pitch, found half consumed near the burned barrack. O’Connell was employed for the defense, and by his desire a skillet containing pitch was secretly placed near the witnesses’ chair, and over this O’Connell placed his broad-brimmed hat, so as effectually to conceal it. The principal witness for the prosecution swore “that he discovered the barrack on fire, and knew it was set on fire by pitch, for he got the smell of it.” “You know the smell of pitch, then?” said O'Connell. “ I do, well,” replied the witness. “ You seem a man well able to smell pitch anywhere,” said O’Connell. “Anywhere I found it.” “Even in this court house, if it were here.” “ No doubt I would.” “And do you swear you don’t get the* smell of pitch here ? ” asked O’Connell. “I do solemnly,” replied the witness. “ If it wete here I’d smell it.” Then O’Connell, taking his hat off the skillet of pitch which was placed beside the witness’ chair, cried: . . “ Now you may go down, you perjured rascal! Go down ! ”

This saved his clients. The jury discredited the witness. At Limerick O’Connell had a ease to which presented slight hopes of his being able to obtain an acquittal. His two clients were indicted for robbery, and the case was substantially proved against them. They called a young priest for testimony as to their character for honesty. He thought to make a parade of his learning by the use of big words, and his replies to the usual inquiries were in the most polysyllabic terms he could devise. Having stated “ their reputation for rectification of habitual propriety was exemplary and commendable,” Judge Torrens, who chafed with irritation as the young priest rolled out each jaw-breaker, at last cut him short with : “Come, sir, no more of this. Say shortly what you know of these men. Are they honest?” “As far as my experience of their deportment, I am under that impression. ” “ You think they are. That comprehends a great deal,” said the Judge, still displaying temper. .Turning to the priest, he said : “That will do—godown, sir. ” O’Connell, assuming an air of great indignation, as the priest shuffl id off the table, addressing the prisoners in a tone of deep commiseration, said : “ My poor fellows, bigotry is on the bench, and, when your excellent young priest has been so ignominiously turned out of court lam in despair of being able to serve you. Here’s you brief and fee.” He flung the brief and the notes to the agent for the prisoners, and commenced putting on his cloak, muttering: “My innocent clients, I despair altogether now of your acquittal. You’ll be hanged, and never were men hanged more unjustly. The only hope I can look to is that, if your sentence is not carried into execution before the twelve Judges meet! will bring this outrageous case before tnem.” This had the effect intended. Judge Torrens invited O’Connell to continue the defense of his clients, and to this, after some pretended reluctance, O’Connell assented. The case went' on, and the Judge, to show he was no bigot, put the character for honesty given the prisoners by the priest so strongly that the jury, almost instantly, brought in their verdict, not guilty.

Potatoes. The potato is a native of mountainous regions in tropical and sub-tropical countries of America, and is probably indigenous from Chili to Mexico. It was used as food in America long before foreign invasion of this country. Early in the sixteenth century the Spaniards carried it from Peru to Spain, whence it spread into the Netherlands, Burgundy and other parts of Europe. It was carried from Virginia to Ireland by Sir John Hawkins, a slave-trader, in 1563, or 1565, and to England by Sir Francis Drake in 1585. But its importance as a vegetable was not recognized until the time of Sir Walter Raleigh, who had estates in Ireland, in the county of Cork, where he cultivated it on a considerable scale. In other countries it was long regarded rather as a rare plant, fit food for cattle and hogs only. It is said that during a famine the Neapolitans, under this belief, once refused to eat potatoes, although suffering from hunger. Thanks to the exertions of Raleigh and other sagacious and benevolent spirits, this valuable tuber was developed in quality and popularized as food to such a degree in Ireland that, in subsequent times, its cultivation spread into England, where it has ever since been known as the “ Irish potato.” The potato mentioned in early English writers before the seventeenth century was the same as the Spanish batatas, or sweet potato.

Thought Thought is the motive power of progress. Without it a man is a brute and improvement impossible. In every age the historian finds men whose thought grasped with problems that were then but prophecies of possible progress yet unrealized. These were the visionaries, the ’fanatics of their times. They were few and poor and of small reputation. They were the objects of ridicule, contempt and persecution by the rich, the great, the respectable and the “ unco good.” Yet the glory of their name, illuminated by the realization of their dreams, gilds the age in which they lived with the golden glow of distant sunset. The transcendental thought of one age becomes the basis of the practical work and faith of the age succeeding. Thaught is the prime factor in God’s plan for redeeming humanity from ignorance, vice, poverty, crime, sickness and sorrow. Thought is born of suggestion, hence to listen to or read the thoughts of others promotes thought in those who read or hear, but whether one’s thought is high, low, worthy or unworthy, depends largely upon the books and papers one re&ds and to the society one keeps. Evil communications corrupt both the thoughts and the manners. His Way. A stranger who was having his boots blacked, in Detroit, felt somewhat interested in the “shiner” and observed : “Boy, do vou go to school?” “No, sir.” “Are you good in figures?” “I dunno.” “If I had ten cents and gave you five how much would I have left?” “ That isn’t the way I figger,” replied the boy after a moment’s thought “If I black yer butes fur five cents and you don’t pay I’ll follow ye and throw ten cents’ worth of mud on the job!” The man settled before the other boot was touched.

Peach Baskets. The manufacture of peach baskets has become an important industry. Years ago the baskets were made by hand, cost from 25 to 30 cents, and the loss of any considerable number of them was a serious matter. But the establishment of great factories, required by the growth of tha peach trade, has reduced the price to a moderate figure, varying from $6 to $8 per 100. In Maryland the bottoms and hoops are made of Maryland pine and the staves from the Delaware gum tree.

UNCLE SAM’S MEN.

Uncle Sam’s letter-carriers are a hardworking set of men, and are liable to contract rheumatism because of the constant exposure to which they are subjected. Calling at the postoffice the reporter had a pleasant conversation with Mr. 3. H. Mattern, one of the most popular and clever letter-carriers in Indianapolis. Mr. Mattern said that, while in the army during the civil war, he sprained one of his ankles, which was always worse in the spring during the period of the rapid changes in the weather. He did not find much relief from the .several, remedies he applied. But two years ago he hit upon St. Jacobs Oil, and experienced wonderful relief from its use. Several applications of the Great German Remedy relieved him entirely. The reporter talked with others among the letter-carriers and found that the Great German Remedy was popular in the postoffioe. They use it for sore feet, rheumatism, etc., and praise it highly.— lndianapolis (tnd.) News. ' - v

Wanted to Compromise.

Among the Northern men who went down to Gen. McDowell’s headquarters shortly before the battle, of Bull Bun, “ just to see the fun,”" was Mr. Kennedy Marshall, of Butler, Pa., then a member of the Pennsylvania Legislature, and one of his reminisoenoQs of the stampede and wild flight to the North, after the defeat, relates to the late Judge McGuf- • fin, of Newcastle. “He had been one of the ‘ On to Richmond ’ crowd,” said Mr. Marshall, “had come down to stiffen the President’s spine, and was loud in advocating a’vigorous prosecution of the war. He was a large man and wore a long linen duster. When the rush to the rear began he ran with the rest. He was fat, and as the crowd gradually swept past him he at last began to think the rebels must be almost within grasp of his flying duster-tails. Blind with sweat and dust he tripped on a log and fell flat on his stomach, or as flat as he could fall on such a round stomach. A zouave, who was hard at his heels, came down with emphasis on top. Mr. McGuffiu was certain that the Philistines were upon him, and, with a weak endeavor to roll his eyes around, that he might see his foeman’s face, exclaimed : ‘ Great God, gentlemen, can’t this tning be compromised?’ ” We see in the New York Spirit of the Times mention of the cure of Mr. George Drake, 46 Fifth sheet, Indianapolis, Ind., of a severe case of water rheumatism by the use of St. Jacobs Oil.—Cincinnati Enquirer. ,

James Gordon Bennett has no other home than Newport. His house is a massive stone structure, not built in the present somewhat showy style, but elegantly appointed and in perfect taste. Here no money is spared for real elegance and comfort. The'house is worth about SIOO,OOO. In it he keeps a fa-, mous chef, and his friends offend him if they do not use house, chef and servants as freely as if it were a hotel. He keeps fourteen horses, and every style of vehicle, from a coach to a village cart. He usually rides himself in the little unpainted village cart, and puts his stables at the disposal of his friends. Mr. Bennett is much liked here. He is morq beloved than liked by a large number of people who are his beneficiaries. He does more good in a quiet way than any man I know of.— Letter from Newport.

The Token of Death.

A young man called at a newspaper office in Plymouth, England, the day after the bombardment of Alexandria, and asked if the names -of any of the Englishmen killed during the day had been received. He said that during the afternoon the mother and wife of a petty officer named Revington, serving in Alexandria, had what they regarded as a “ token of his death.” They were sitting together in their house talking and working when they heard or thought they heard the voice of the absent son and husband say “ Mother !” three times. Nothing had been heard about Revington at the newspaper office, but the next day the relatives received a telegram from the Admiralty stating that he was shot in the streets of Alexandria while serving on police duty. A lady physician writes : “ I have met with great suevess m female diseases. My chief prescription for languor, debility, Irregularities, painful periods, dyspepsia and other complications of general weakness, ill-health, impure blood, etc., is Dr. Guysott’s Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla.

A Wonderful Salt Vein.

A very curious thing is a salt quarry, discovered in Wyoming county, south of Rochester, N. Y., near Gainesville. They were boring for oil, and struck a ledge twelve sett thick of pure crystal salt. It lies in the ground like a gigantic cake of ice, and can be taken out so clear and transparent that you can see through the cakes as if they were pure glass. It will be much cheaper to quarryout this salt and grind it up than it is to boil down the Syracuse, Saginaw or Turk’s Island salt. The mine is a source of infinite wealth to Wyoming coupty, and one of the geological curiosities of the world.
