St. Augustine.

The city of St. Augustine, on the easiern coast of Florida, stands in one respect pre-eminent among all the cities of the United States —it is truly an old city. It has many other claims to consideration, but these are 6hared with other cities. But in regard to age it is the one member of its class. Compare! with the cities of the Old World, St. Augustine would be called young; but in the United States a city whose buildings and monuments connect the Middle Ages with the present time may be considered to have a good claim to be called ancient. After visiting some of our great towns, where the noise and bustle ot traffic, the fire and din of manufactures, the long lines of buildings stretching out in every direction, with all the other evidences of active enterprise, proclaim these cities creatures of the present day and hour, it is refreshing and restfuf to go down to quiet St. Augustine, where one may gate into the dry moat of a fort of medieval architecture, walk over its drawbridges, pass under its portcullis, and go down into its dungeons: and where in soft semi-tropical air the visitor may wander through narrow streets resembling those of Spain and Italy, where the houses on each side lean over toward one another so that neighbors might almost shake bands from their upper windows, and are surrounded by orange groves and rosegardens which blossom all the year.— St. Nicholas.

Nearing the Grave.

In old acre infirmities and weakness hasten to close the crap between ns and the grave. Happily scientific research and pharmacal skill have alliedefhemselves in furnishing ns a reliable means of ameliorating the ailments incident to declining years, and of renewing waning physical energy. Its name is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a widely comprehensive remedy in disease, and an Inestimable blessing to the elderly, the feeble, and the convalescent. Bheumatlb ailments, trouble with the kidneys and lumbago are among the more common ailments of the aged. These are effectually counteracted by the Bitters, which is likewise a prevention and curative of malarial complaints. dyspepsia, constipation, and biliousness. It is highly promotlve of appetite, sleep, and the acquisition of vigor.

Money-Making.

A man who has faith in his land “runs” it for all it is worth and makes money. Whether he knows it or not, he employs scientific methods, and they are always successful in the end, when governed by common sense. But he Inust employ economy also. If he is wasteful he will not succeed, no matter how much he makes.

The Kanaka Queen.

Will the Queen of the Sandwich Islands again sit on her throne? This is one of the foremost questions in the public mind. It may depend entirely .upon herself for answer, as a Writer says she is almost a helpless cripple from lumbago. The intelligence ought to be conveyed to her in a diplomatic way, that there Is no remedy on earth a surer cure for it than St Jacobs Oil, as it is also a specific for sciatica, so prevalent in the tropics. She can easily verify this statement by the use of the remedy. Canterbury C&thedrai., wag a magnificent cathedral at Canterbury, England.

CHRONICLE OF A YEAE

EDITOR FENNO TELLS THE STORY OF 1789. Washington's Progress from Virginia to Kew York and What Happened During the Journer —First American Congress Meeting—Day of National Espousals. From an Old Newspaper. On Wednesday, April 15, appeared the first number of the “United States Gazette, a national paper to be printed at the seat of the Federal government and to comprise as fully as possible early and authentic accounts of the proceedings of Congress—its laws, acts, and resolutions communicated so as to form a history of the transactions of the Federal Legislature under the new constitution.” A file of the Gazette for the year 1789 constitutes a veritable antique in the way of American journals. The pages are stained and faded, their color is that of an antique proper, but the matter is invaluable. If all other literature of the period were to be destroyed the entire political and social fabric of the time might be reconstructed from this fragment. Properly approached it becomes au adequate

revelation of 'the post-revolutionary spirit. The political atmosphere in which it is involved is refreshing, invigorating, and delightful. It is, in fact, a poem, a political poem—or, better still, a political pastoral, for it is the pastoral perioi of our political history that it reflects. Booms, barrels, bosses, machines, and all the other refinements incident to a highly developed politicabsystem were at that time unheard of. A beautiful simplicity charadel'ized all political life and activity. The more one reads the Gazette the stronger becomes the conviction that the politics of the time was essentially bucolic and idyllic. One notes a certain joyous, breezy, outdoor sunlight quality about it. There was the shepherd, Washington; his flock, the people; the shepherdess the new constitution. It was a desire to describe the charms of the new constitution that afforded Mr. John Fenno, editor of the Gazette, an excuse for starting his paper. Editor Fenno believed that the new constitution would, as Carlyle says, “march.” Washington had made the Declaration *of Independence “march.” Why should he not make the new constitution “march?” It will

be remembered that things were “marching” very badly over in France about this time. The Day of National Espousals. On the eve of the inauguration of Washington Editor Fenno prints the following double-leaded editorial in his paper: “We have heard much of the birthday of our Columbia. Her natal hour is dated on the 10th of April, 1775. “To-morrow is the day of her espousals—when, in the presence of the King of kings, the solemn compact will be ratified between her and the darling object of her choice. * “May she date from that moment the brightest scenes of freedom and happiness, under the auspices of the wise and glorious administration of the President of her affections.” One remarks some differences between this and the modern election editorial. Editor Fenno does not speculate as to whose head will fall ihto the basket first; he says nothing about appointments; he does not present this man's “claims” on a certain position, nor does he urge the “peculiar fitness” of Mr. Blank for a particular office. Nothing could be more unique, more charmingly ingenuous, than this idea of the marriage of Washington to, the new constitution. Let us expand it. Washington, the hero, after having proved himself worthy by many victories on land and sea, is chosen by Columbia as her bridegroom. Columbia wears a diadem of thirteen stars. The hero comes*to her and, amid manifestations of the greatest joy on the Dart of the people, she marries the “darling object of her choice.” There is matter in it for an epic; but the age of epics—alas! There is one more paragraph to the editorial. In it Editor Fenno describes the spectacular effects which have been prepared for the celebration of the espousals: “In the evening fireworks, prepared under the direction of the ingenious Col. Bauman, will irradiate the hemi-

Headquarters at Newburg.

One of the historical places in ttTe city of Newburg, says Harper's Young People, is Washington’s headquartei s. It is a very pretty little building, overlooking the Hudson River. On this west side is a low porch, which is the entrance to the historical room, having seven floors and one window. It originally was -the dining-room. It contains "one of the high old-fashioned fire-places. Hanging to its black sides are a kettle once used by Lafayette and a few cannon balls. Near by is an almost life-size portrait of Gen. Washington, embroidered in silk. To the right is Washington’s bed-room. .In this room are some chairs and a table brought from Holland in the year 1682, also portraits of Gen. and Mrs. Washington, and two very much worn flags. In the next room are Mrs. Washington’! spinet and Washington's

chair. The housekeeper's room is where the old ammunition and guns are kept. The walls are literally covered with guns and muskets. In here are several links of the chain which was placed across the Hudson to prevent the passage of British ships during the war. Several other rooms are filled with minor curiosities. The next floor can hardly be called a story, for it is only a small attic. Here repose ancient spinning wheels and knapsacks. Amidst the dust of ages on the floor lie sevet al pairs of slippers. The stairway and hall are decorated with old oil portraits. The grounds around the building are laid out as a park. Cannrns and balls are arranged around. Near by is a monument of Washington. From here there is a splendid view of the river and Storm King, and all the mountains stand forth in their glory. Altogether this is a very prettv, pleasant and interesting place to visit.

NEW WASHING TON MONUMENT.

A Magnificent Work of Art for tlie City of Philadelphia, Philadelphia will soon have the finest monument in America. It is now twelve years since Prof. Rudolph Siemering, one of the most famous German sculptors,began work on a monument to Washington for the “city of brotherly

The whole structure, including the equestrian figure on the pedestal, is fifty feet high. The statue represent! Washington in his Continental uniform arf fie marched at the head of his troops. The cloak is thrown back from his body, as thdugh blown back by the wind, and the whole statue is full of action. Tho figures about the pedestal and tho base of the monument are even more artistic than the monument itself. Ascending the first steps, you reach a second platform, around which lie great figures emblematic of American life and America. There are two of these figures at each corner of the monument. Ascending one flight of steps, you pass between reclining statues of an Indian hunter and an Indian fisher-girl mending her nets. Below them are magnificent bronze statues of buffalo and deer, and on other parts of the base are other animals emblematic

the Revolution offering her the laurels of their victories. The statue is the largest one of Washington in existence, and the monument, when set up, will be the finest in America.

Festival of the States.

Notwithstanding all the attention paid the 22d of February, it is not the holiday of the nation, but the festival of the States. In 1845, urged on by Mrs. Harrison Gray Otis, Massachu otts led the way in making it a legal holiday throughout her borders by legislative enactment, and since that time all the Stalev of the Union except six have followed this example, the District of Columbia being included by Congress as late as 1880. With an obvious propriety this day is marked all over the world by our legations and often by foreign governments. Thus in 1882 the United States of Colombia took notice of the 150th anniversary of Washington’s birth in words which may fitly close this account of the spontaneous honors paid our great hero. After testifying to its “reverent respect and profound admiration,” the resjlution “recommends to K Colombians the singular example of eminent virtues which characterizes in history the prominent figure of ( the founder of the first of the republics of the new continent.”

At the End of a Century.

On the centenary of Washington’s birth in 1832, Congress proposed to remove his body to the crypt prepared for it under the domq of the Capitol, but John A. Washington, then the owner of Mount Vernon, refused to allow it to be done, and the government was obliged to content Itself with the

purchase of tho portraits by Peale and Yanderlyn and the commission for the well-known statue of Greenough, intended for the rotunda. This was also the occasion for the fortunate selection of the design for the Washington monument. Divine service was hefd in the Capitol, there was a dinner at the famous Brown’s Hotel, where Daniel Webster spoke for an hour, a ball “for the gentry” at Carusi's saloon and “another for mechanics and tradesmen” at the Masonic Temple

WASHINGTON'S APPEARANCE.

Dr. James Thatcher Gives His Impressions of the Coinnmmler-in-chlef. Dr. James Thatcher, who met Washington at West Point in 1778, wrote: “The personal appearance of our Com-mander-in-chief is that of the perfect gentleman and accomplished warrior. He is remarkably tall, full six feet, erect and well proportioned. Tho strength and proportion of his joints and muscles appear to be commensurate with the pre-eminent powers of his mind. The serenity of his countenance and ma'estic gracefulness of his deportment impart a strong impression of that dignity and grandeur which aroh is peculiar characteristics, and any one can ob.ervo in his countenance tho idea of wisdom, philanthropy, magnanimity and patriotism _Thor§.is p fine symmetry fn the features of his' face, indicative of a benign and dignified spirit. His nose is straight, and his eyes incline to blue. He wears his hair in a becoming cuo, and from his forehead it is turned Duck and powdered in a manner which adds to the military air of his appearance. He displays a native gravity, but devoid of all appearance of ostentation. His uniform dress is a blue coat, with two brilliant epaulettes, buff-colored under clothes, and a threo-cornored hat, with a black cockade."

A Cook's Last Wish.

A Paris restaurant-keeper, recently deceased, left 250,000 francs to two nephews on condition that, instead of molancholy memories that no one would believe, they should for one year each day affix a copy of one of his culinary receipes to his gravestone, so that even aftor his doath he might benefit his fellow men. No less than 365 prescriptions were found among his papers. Unfortunely, the Paris Tombstone Commission, which examines and decides upon tho inscrip

tions to be placed upon cemetartal monuments, refused to admit the fulfillment of the culinary philanthropist's last wishes. What aggravates the nephews’ grief is the unpleasant fact that the court has now decided that they cannot get those 250,000 francs their uncle left them under certain conditions.

Wealth of the Whole World.

In 1885 Professor Adolph Soetbeer, of Gottingen, Germany, published an essay on the production of the precious metals, since become a famous reference book. He gives a table of the estimated “total monetary supply of the precious metals,” at the close of 1885, in which he places the supply of gold at 13,364,000,1)00 marks, and that of silver at 7,843,000,000 marks, a total of 21,207,000,000 marks, equal to about $5,300,000,000. Since then the coinage has gone on merrily, so that now perhaws there aie $6,000,000,000 of gold and silver coin. That would give about $6 to each man, woman and child on the earth, accepting the usual estimate that the population of the world is, in round numbers, 1,000,000,000.—5 t. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Royal Buckwheats.

For generations it has been the custom to mix the batter for buckwheat cakes with yeast or emptying*, retaining a portion of the batter left over from one morning to raise the cakes for the following day. If kept too warm, or not used promptly, this batter becomes excessively sour and objectionable. Buckwheat cakes raised by this means are more often sour or heavy than light and sweet. If eaten daily they distress the stomach and cause skin eruptions and itching. Instead of the old-fashioned way we have been making buckwheat cakes this winter with Royal Baking Powder, mixing the batter fresh daily, aud find the result wonderfully satisfactory. They are unifoimly light and sweet, more palatable and wholesome, and can be oaten continuously without the slightest digestive inconvenience. Besides they are mixed and baked in a moment, reouiring no time to rise. Following is the receipt used: Two cups of pure buckwheat flour (not “prepared” or mixed); one cup of wheat flour, two tablespoons of Royal Baking Powder, and one-half teaspoonful of salt, all sifted well together. Mix with milk into a thin batter and bake at once on a hot griddle. Once properly test'd from this receipt, no other buckwheat will find its way to your table. —Domestic Cookery.

JULE’S VERNE’S IDEAS.

The French Story Writer Explains What lte Aim* At. In the course of a conversation with R. H. Sherard on his life ana work, reported in McClure’s Magazine, Jules Verne says: “My object has been to depict the earth, and not the earth alone, but the universe, for 1 have sometimes t. ken my readers away from the earth, in the novel. And I have tried at the same time to realize a very high ideal of beauty of style. It is ! aid that there can’t be any style in a novel of adventure, but that isn't t: ue; though 1 admit that it is very much more difficult to write such a novel in a good literary form than tho studios of character which are so much in vogue. And let me say’’—here Jules Verne, slightly raised his broad shoulders ‘‘that lam no very groat admirer of tho psychological novel, so-called, because 1 don’t see what a novel hai to do with psychology, and 1 can't say that I admire the so-called psychological noveli-ts.

"I can,” replied Bluflkins, with unruffled composure, “and hero is tho proof. I was riding homo in an electric last night. Two Englishmen sat next to me. ‘I 'ave just bought a stove,’ said one. 'So'ave I,’said the other. ‘But mine is the best on earth; it cooks my breakfast in 'alf an hour,’ said tho first. ‘Jove,’ said the second, ‘that isn't anything. I can ’eat my stove in five minutes.’ ” And even Mr. Algernon Hawkins acknowledged that tho Englishman did have a pretty solid appetite.—Boston Budget.

How He Would Defend It.

Captain Derby, better known to fame by his literary name, “John Phoenix,” perpetrated a joke (retold in Harper's Weekly) which is one of the classics at West Point. The Theoretical Journal of the siege prescribes just what is to be done in investing a fortification, with the invariable result — theoretical, of course —that the works are obliged to surrender within a certain number of days. Professor Mahan called upon Derby to explain how, with a given number of guns and strength of garrison, ho would defend a fort. "I would immediately evacuate the fort, then lay siege to it, and recapture it in forty-one days,” replied Derby.

PUT AN END TO THE STRIKE.

How the Master of Balllol Dealt with University Washerwomen. A sympathetic biographer and one who is evidently acquainted with hi* subject, contributes to Cornbali some rare “Memories es the Master of Balliol.” The Master was & keen judge of human nature,, and iu the anecdotes comprised in this jiapor there are evidences of his keen insight into character. One trivial though characteristic incident narrated is quoted as follows by tho Toronto Empire: Jowett’s brevity of speech and dispatch of business never shone more than on the great occasion of his dealing with the rofractory washerwomen of BallioL These worthy dames struck for higher wagos in one department. Twelve collars for a shilling was, I believe, the statutory price. They came to interview the master. “The washerwomen have come to see you,” said the butler. “Show the ludies up,” said the master. They c'umped into the room to find him fiddling with the jtoker at the ashes in the grate. Ho turned round. “Will you wash twelve collars for a •hilling?" They began to expostulate. He touched the bell. In came the butler. "Show the ladies down." Presently tho butler appeared again. “They seem very sorry, sir—would like to seo you again.” "Show thorn up." The washerwomen found the master intent, as before, on tho lire grate. “Will you wash twelve collars for a shilling?” piped his cheery little voice. A stalwart speaker began to make explanations. Ho touched the bell. “Show thoso ladies down,” said he, and down thoy went. Again the butler expressed a hopo that no would boo them. “Certainly; show them up.” Thoy entered the room. “Will you wash twolvo collars for a shilling?" “Wo will,” they cried. “Thank you—good day, good day,” said tho master; and, touching the bell, ho said: “Knight, show these ladios down"—and tho strike was over.

I think Swamp-Root one of the greatest medicines ever offered to suffering humanity. Any one wishing to write me may do so and I will gladly answer. Yours truly, Frank B. Reynolds.
