THE Terre Haute NEWS says among the prominent arrivals was "Captain Beadle, of the Iiockvillc TribuneThis is a little severe on the editor, as we have frequently heard him say that he held the honored position of 4th Corporal while in the service.—Rocknille Tribune.

Wo beg pardon we have often wondered at what point the military lightning struck Corporal Beadle, but supposed it to have been in the hundred days service.

BERRY SULOROVB, the veteran journalist, writes thus concerning Albert G. Porter and the charge of being a KnowNnothing: To the Editor of tho Indlanapolls^News.

The Sentinel appeals to foreign born citizens to oppose Mr. Porter because he was a "Know-Nothlug." That's exactly what's the matter with the Sentinel. It knows nothing of ^hat it says or it wouldn't say u—possibly. Mr. Porter was one of the most conspicuous antagonists of tho Knpw-Nothiugs in the election of 1854. I belonged to the order, and well remember that the night be fore the election of that year, Mr. Porter and Governor Wright spoke frorm a goods box at the corner of Hub bard's block, while we K. N.'s wereinses sion in the upper story, with the names of members enough on our books to make sure of a Democratic defeat the nextdpy and I remember that we rather enjoyed the savage denunciations of Mr. Porter and his exhortations to stand in no fear of "a cowardly foe that dared not tight only in the dark." We knew enough to know that his party was badly beaten and didn't care for his lashing.

The history of aquatic sports in this country is but little kuown. The first boat dub established was the Knickerbocker. of New York, in 1811. It was disbanded the following year, owing to the war with England. After many years, Robert L. and John Stevens, Ogden Hoffman, Samuel Verplanck. Charles L. Livingston, Robert Emmet, and others, to the number of 100, started, in 1880, the New York boat club. Their -first boat was built by Joseph Fratictt, bu| was soon presented to BMEmpcror of Tfessia. The second, a double decked. baitte of iixteen oars, thirty feetlon*, andcaJJed the Sea drift, is still in exceiK^tpniservation, half a century after it* construction. It is of chestnut and Oivt and has been entrusted to Mr. Samuel V^rplanck and his heirs, to be preserved as long any ot the mem berircontinue living. number still exist, including CapU Francis, the veteran builder.—Pmri»J»urmL

1]be Dog of the Itealm.^

One of the' most important and genererally respected members of Prince Bismarck's household is a huge hound, popularly designated, "the Realm Dog." This animal, his mighty master's inseparable companion, isstern of aspect and wrathful in disposition. He inspires fear, rather than love, in all men save one, and has acquired a somewhat formidable renown for having "collared" several eminent personages—among them Prince Gortschakoff—whose appearance inspired him with distrust, or in whom his instincts revealed to him the entertainment of hostile purposes toward his lord. The other day two delegates from Altona, charged with the presentation of a peiitftion from that to*n to His Highness, were received by Prince Bismarck in special audience. The Chancellor sat in his comfortable rocking-chair, the "Realm Dog" stretched on the carpet by his side, while the delegates, Messrs, Nothnagel and Semper, tok their seats on a leathern couch facing His liignness.

Mr. Nothnagel had a roll of paper in his right hand, and, being ah energetic speaker, accustomed to emphasize his arguments by gesticulation, he waved his scroll about while addressing the Chancellor, disregardful of the fact that his movements elicited several successive disapproving utterances from the watchful hound. Presently the dog rose with a fierce growl, whereupon Prince Bismarck, hastily interrupting his interlocutor's re marks, exclaimed: "Do put down that scroll, I beg of you. My. dog. like my self, entertains a profound aversion to every kind of paper. He believes it to be a weapon!" It.is-needless to add that Mr. Nothnagle .proirijptly complied with this request, obviously to the satisfaction,of the Realm dog who forthwith subsided into his former peaceful attitude

Long-Distance Walking#!

Ixmg-distafi.ee: walking was imported from the United Spates, ^bere it, Heema tc|have com^ into exifiteiice about the time when negro slayery was abolishedL Perhaps in viewing th$ agonies p^-a halfdead mail staggering along a ti|ickto th,^: music of l»nd,'and much to'tlw anxietyipf a doctor the pul?lie ,!found' scini© compensation for'tW loss of the privilege of thraslung its own nigger. Or, ajjain, as prize-ngliting decayed-, longdistance walking may naturally have taken its place. Two men who have walked four hundred miles in a week are almost as agreeable to look upon as two men who have been pounding each other's faces for three hours with their fiats. In the latter case, to be sure, there is the fierce delight of battle, which everyone can enjoy if he hardens his heart. Long walking, on the other hand, iB scarcely more diverting^than the slow tortures of the Inauisition, which only began after the victim had suffered some considerable time. As long as a longdistance walker is tolerably fresh, and going within himself, there is littie excitement in watching him. It is about the fifth day that sleeplessness and fatigue tell on him and the sport begins. ELe limps along, suffering torments from a festenng heel. His brain is bemused with exceeding toil and, as lie staggers mechanically round, it id said that curious visions beguile him. He does not see the crowd, which stares, smokes and drinks. lie does not hear the music, which mixes in a dream of his past life? 'He thinks that he is working in somt, country placu that he know long ago, before he wns a long-distance walker, and a mirage lioats before him, like that which cheats wauderers in Chf desert When his hour is up he staggers into his bedroom, and there, let us nope, has the good fortune to become ouite senseless and indifferent. As»the last day of the competition approaches, soft hearted lookere-on wish to have some of tke walkers removed: bat their backers will not permit .this. Men are compelled to subject themselves to this voluntary torture, which equals those to which red Indian bfftvfes expose themselves.— urday I

A circular in out possession says of this tree arid its wax The most important article for illuminating purposes in Japan" is the candle made from the fruit of a tree about the size and appearance of the common sumac of this country. It is grown more or less extensively almost everywhere it Japan,and especially in the western provinces, from the south northwest to the thirty-fifth degree.

The tree has a quick growth,"and at tains the dimensions of a foot and a half and a height of twenty-five feet. The blossoms appear in June. They begin to yield berries the third or fourth year, The berries are the size of a small pea of a white color, hanging in clusters, and contain the wax as a thick, white coating of the seed. The full-grown tree is said to yield about fifty pounds of seeds annually, uearlv one half of which is wax. It is a hardy plant growing on indifferent soil, and living for many years. In Japan they are planted by the roadside, on embankments and in out-of-the-way pla-

The wax is obtained by the berries being crushed, steamed, and then placed in hemp bags and pressed in a wedgepress. ft is also obtained by boiling the bruised seeds and skimming the wax from the top. The wax is a palmatine or glycerine when first extracted it is of a yellowish white color, and somewhat softer than beeswax. It melts at one hundred and twenty-seven degrees, and when formed into candles gives a fine, clear light In ordinary candlemaking the unbleached wax is used. Wlien washed and bleached in the sun and air it assumes a pure white color.

A local preacher had" been preaching In the afternoon in a village not far from Newcastle, England, and having accompanied one of the chapel members to his* house, was of course introduced to his wife, who appeared very glad to see him, and warmly pressed him, for a full quarter of an hour, to stay to tea. Heat last consented. While all this pressing was going on, the husband was quietly standing by preparing to wash his hands and face. The good lady then went to get the tea ready, and it was not long before both the tea andlier temper were brewing for, hearing, as she thought^ her dearly beloved washing, she made for the littie window which communicated between the kitchen and the pantry nrhere she was, and taking^ advantage of his. position, more quickly than one could say "Jack Robinson," she administered two or three hard raps on his bald pate, accompanied with the exclamation,

6I'll

learn ye to bring them hungry preachers here to tea every time they come to preach!"

As soon as the unfortunate individual could get the soap-snds out of his eyes he began to think what it all meant,"but could come to no other, conclusion than that the old lady had made a sad mistake, which she also soon found out, for upon returning to the parlor, there she saw her husband patiently awaiting his turn to wash.
