BABES nr THE WOOD.
By request Bice's Extravaganza combination will present "Babes in the Wood" to- morrow night, concerning which burlesque the St. Joseph, (Mo.) Democrat says: "Bice's Evangeline company_ gave as a change of programme last night, producing for the first time in this city, the burlesque opera of "Babes in the Wood." Of the piece itself, it can be said that it is in some respects better than "Evangeline." It is more dressy and containes more popular musical gems. The members of the company displayed some new and very brilliant costumes which were shown to good effect. Miss Jennie Weathersby appeared to excellent advantage. Miss Hattie Richardson, as usual, made a fine impression upon the audience, as Sully, one of the Babes. She had a good yoice, used it to good effect, and was encored several times for her pains. Mr. Charles A. Burkf, as Tommy, did some very clever acting. Mies Eila Caldwell was very graceful and did some good singing as Ophgoodphellows, Miss Larkelle, as The Bad Man, was better than en any previoua night of the engagement. She hes a good voice and a very Hbapely form, and will become a favorite tbe others we have not time te mention. "Babes in tbe Wood" is an amusing burlesqne. It will be presented again to-night.
J! BOOMS FOB BENT." R,
:"'R.
Concerning this laughable comedy which will be given ou Tuesday night with a strong cast, the Baltimore Gazette savf: "Booms for Bent, anew farcial comedy in four act*, was produced at Ford's last night, and the result was a decided and instantaneous hit. The play has so many funny situations that the audience was kept in a constant roar of laughter. It is full of movement. The piece wss evidently intended to strike the keynote of popular feeling, and in this it is a great eaccees. The theatre wss well filled last night. Mr. Hoist made a decided hit as the Danish dancing-master, and his. ballet dsncing in the fourth act brought down the house. He is reall7 a wonderful character comedian. Mr. Beers, as Huccleinap, showed some fine light-comedy acting, and the rest of the gentleman acquitted themselves admirably. Of the ladies, Mies Fletcher carried off the honois of the evening as Mrs. Cutter. She is a capital soubrette. Miss Fanny McNiel, as Alice, was delightful and looked and acted her part superbly. Mitn Reynolds, as Mile. Rossvells, acted creditably end sang several selections in good style. The well-mounted piece was received with great favor and is sure to have crowded houses here this week."
Burglaries.
The' family of Peter Gfroerer is troubled with burglars. They have broken into the house three times within two months, and five times within a year. Early yesterday morning they broke in, but were frightened off before they got any booty. These burglaries are getting monotonous and Mr. Gfroerer is getting tired of them. Some of theee times he may conclade to welcome the ratcala "with bloody hands to hospitable graves." A few losds of buckshot placed where they will do tbe moet good will be apt to stop their depredations. The fact that tbey select a printer's house for their exploits shows that tbey are worse fools (ban Thompsan's colt. For the information of the burglars we state that Mr. G. lives on the corner of Fifth and Linton streets.
Bad Sidewalks.
A "tax payer" complains of the bad condition of the sidewalks on the south side of Eagle, between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets. Another correspondent
complaiES
of the bad condition of
the sidewalks on the eest side of Fifth between Main and Ohio streets. A number ol property owners are very careless and stingy in these matter?. Some ofthese times somebody will break a leg in this way and some property owner will have a bill of damages to pay, which will serve him or her right. A defective sidewalk is a great abominatcn and withal dangerous
A Serious Charge.
Chief of Police Owens, of Paris, it teems has laid himself open to a very s£ rious cbage in taking thieves from the county jiil to Paris. The law requires that when a requisition is made for prisoners the criminal court rr.uss act upon the matter, before they can be removed from this state. The charges against the partiss were dismissed before Mayor Lyne yesterday, and without taking them before tbe criminal court, Owens hurried them off to Paris.
The Vizina Consolidated Mining Company, of Tombstone, Arizona, has declaredits usual monthly dividend of $20,000 or 10 cents per share, payable February 1st. This is the fifth dividend declared since October last, a total of $100,000. The production of the mine is about twenty tons of ore per day, which yields about $93 per ton total production since October, 1880, is 5,664 tons of ore milled, yielding $524,80-5.35, ont of which fcll expenses For opening, development and improvements have been paid, as well a3 $100,000 dividendti, and there remains a surplus of $100,000, without any debts,
The case of Graves and Toslin, indicted by the grand jury for a hurglary committed at Lockport, will be tried in the criminal court to day.
Biokel—Origin of its Name* ''Nickel," says an old magazine of 1824, "signifies in German, from which it is derived, false, dirty or foul, and in this sense is applied to the wort description of females. Now, nickel is found in different parts of Germany, and was supposed by the minera to be copper. As they could not, however, extract any copir from it, they gave it the name of „opfernickel, or false copper. When a scientific chemist by the name of Cronstedt came to examine it, about 1750, and found that it was metal different from all others, he retained the latter part of the name, giveu it in reproach, and called it nickel, which has since been universally adopted and thus ah element of natnre is stigmatized by a term than which no more oppobrious name can be given to a woman. For any other people but Germans this is certainly of no consequence, but it is rather a curious specimen of the manner in which names, that in ascientific point of view ought to express the qualities of substar.ee, are applied. Nickel ia rather a ecarce mineral, and is always found combined with. sexue other metals, which, for along time, occasioned its separate existence to be denied. The brittle metal that is usually Bold under this name always contains iron, arsenic, copper, cobalt and bismuth. When pure, it is a fine white color, resembling silver, and it is rather softer than iron. It is malleable both when cold and hot, it ia attracted by the magnet, and, like steel, may be converted into a magnet, pointing, when suspended, to the north like a common magnetic needle. It is put to no use, and is, perhaps, moet remarkable on account of ita forming apart of almost all the stones that have fallen from the sky (meteoric stones) in every part of tbe world."
A War of Herdics.

A Bomaxtce of the Dinaer Hour. My occupation was of a sedentary Character, and. in consequence, in selecting my boarding-hciuse 1: endeavored to get one quite ft distance from my place of business, in order to ha re some enforced exercise.
Tn walking home to my dinner I met With many folks on the same errand, the same folks day after day. In time I became well acquainted with the faces of many of them and one young lady in particular took my especial fancy. She was not a beauty as beauty goes, but had a generally pleasing and "taking" countenance and very pretty eyes.
We gradually grew to take notice ol one another, first 'by a glance of the eyes, then by a smile, ana finally by a little nod of the head. But we never were on a speaking acquaintanceship 'for although, as I said before, of a very susceptible nature, I wag very set in my ideas of propriety, and It did not suit them to talk to the young ladv without & proper introduction. Our intimacy, even up to the nodding point, had been of very Blow growth. Alter some months I had become so much Interested that I had determined to get an introduction to my unknown charmer and was wondering by what means I shohld accomplish it. when one day she failed to appear. The next day, and the next, aud-the next, she did not put in an appearance, and then I thought she must be ill but when two or three weeks had elapsed and she still did not resume her daily walk, I felt quite disconsolate. I made such inquiries as I could regarding her, but gained no information, and-at last gave np in despair. She had made more than an ordinary impression on my feelings, and I settled down to business with a rather melancholy air so much so that even my fellow-laborers wanted to know what was the matter with me.
About a year after the sudden disappearance of the young lady I was walking along one day at noon on the same Btreet as of old, when who should I see coming down the street but the identical person, carrying with a motherly air, a "bouncing baby." I imagined from the wfcy she held the youngster up, as if for me to admire, ana the smiling glance she gave that she had come out on purpose to exhibit it to me. I never saw her again, aud thus ended the romance of my dinner hour
"C Buchanan Bead A correspondent writing from Win« Chester, Va.. says:
A look over the great battle-fields which surround this place—fields that are to-day brown with the fresh-plowed earth or yellow with the stubble of tho" gathered grain—fields that drank the blood of thousands of the bravest and the best of the nation's men, recalls Bead to my mind, and revives a story of his genius I have never seen in print. His poctic fancy often leaped through the fumes of wine that frequently clouded his brain, and one of his happiest flights was inspired by the word "peace, spoken just after" the sound of battlo was hushed, and the great1 field3 about Winchester, which are to-day groaning with the burdens of husbandry, wei*e desolate. The torch of war and the hoof of strife had blasted the faoe of these charming hills and fertile vallevs. Bead had been dining, arid was "full." He came staggering into the pifesence of two of the most distinguished men of that day. He settled himself in a chair and seemed limp and almost lifeless from the effects of dissipation, The statesmen were talking of the settlement, and of tho demands peace would make upon statesmanship, and the rewards of the conflict, if properly controlled. The word "peace, spoken by one of the gentlemen, in the course of the conversation, seemed to electrify Bead. He started from his stupor, and, sitting up straight in his chair, with his poetic face red with wine, but beaming with intelligence, and his eye flashing fire, said
Oht that some beautiful bird of the south Might build its nest In the cannon's mouth, And stop the awful roar. The last word had hardly died upon his lips before he settled back into his stupor as quickly as he came out of it.

.. Corporeal Punishment^ Judge Higley, of Cincinnati, has delivered a learned opinion upon the subject of corporeal punishment, tbe oase in question being one in which the pupil leaned his head upon his hand in
culed by the teacher. Again the boy laughed when called to recite, and was struck on the head with the open hand. At tea, the same night, the boy bad a poor appetite, and was delirious through the night, but able the following day to resume his school studies. By process of reason the Judge reached the conclusion, upon existing decisions, that, whenever the punishment inflicted shocked the moral sense of tho dispassionate and reasonable, it is illegal. Tho stan 'ard of that moral sense had, in his judgment, advanced to that extent that the defendant (the teacher), by employing ridicule, which was not commendable, by slapping the pupil on the head, which was not a proper mode of punishment, and by inflicting corporeal punishment where there was no open insult or disobedience to justify it, had brought himself within the %tatqte( and he should find him guilty.

The Needle's Eye,
The passage from the New Testament, "It is easier for a camel," etc., has perplexed many good men who have read ft literally. In Oriental citie3 there are in the large gates, small and vti^r low apertures, called metaphorically "needles' eyes," just as we talk of windows on shipboard as "bull's eyes." These entrances are too narrow for a camel to pass through them in the ordinary manner, or even if loaded. When a loaded oamel has to pass through one of these Entrances it kneels down, its load is re-, moved, and then it shuffles through on ita knees. "Yesterday," writes Xady Doff Gordon from Cairo, "I saw a
camel
go through the eye of a needle, that is, the low, arched door of an enolosure. He must kneel and bow his head to creep through and thus the rich man must humble himself."
A new method of mutilating silver currency is being employed by numbers of patent-medicine venders and others to advertise their goods and wares. Of late large numbers of coins have been received in the treasury wtdch are stamped on one side with advertisements. The stamps used are some sort of die wbich cuts letters and words into the coin. In most instances the name of the owner of the article advertised is not cut on the coin, but the advertisement simply recommends a certain nostrum or article. As tho coin is stamped only on one side, it can be passed very readily, exposing only the perfect side. This is a mutilation of the currency and a violation of the law. The secret service has been directed to investigate this and hunt out and prosecute tbe offenders.

Water Power in the Southern States. Southern BailwayGaaette. Virginia has a water power of gnat extent and value. Almost all tbe streams in the State have ample fall for mill seats, Tbe line of the James river from Buchanan to Richmond ia a favored locality for manufacturing. Jackson's river, a branch of the James, baa a large fall from its head to its junction with the James. Lyncbburg has an excellent water power. There are many riven originating in Middle Virginia which have sufficient fall for manufacturing those in the Piedmont have a still greater fall and those in the Valley and Bine Ridge and Apalatchia have a fall varying from 500 to 1,000 feet, which may be used for manufacturing. The whole country from the Potomac to the Dan abounds in manufacturing sites. Of the 100,000 available horse-power on the James, 44,800 of this power exists from Richmond to Bosher's dam—ten miles— with a fall of 130 feet.
North Carolina is estimated to have more than three million horn power in her streams from the table lands to tbe sea. This exceeds that of all the steam engines in the United States and Great Britain.
Prof. Kerr estimates tbe water-power of that part of Boanoke river within the State at 70,000 horse-power that of the Yadkin at 225,000 that of the Catawba at 184,000, or enough in the last to turn 7,360,0G0 spindles, and that of the Cape Feat, Haw end Deep rivers combined at 130,000 horse-power, a force sufficient to turn 5,200,000 spindles. Thus far^ these immense powers waste themselves in almost unheeded call.
South Carolina has over two millions of water-powers from water falling^ in the State. The Commissioner of Agriculture of that State says: "Considering the magnitude of the North Carolina water-shed that finds its drainage through this State, estimated at 3,370,000 horse-power, we may safely add from this source one million to onr estimate, giving a total of three million horse-powers for the State."
Georgia does not fall behind her sister States in her water-power. The differences of elevation between the sources among the mountains and the months of the rivers emptying into the ocean or golf, ranging from one to three thousand feet^ demonstrates the abundance and value of the water-power of the State. The Chattahoochee, Etowah, Savannah, Broad, Ocmulgee, Flint, Ogeechee, Altamaha and other riven and Btreams afford power enough to satisfy all the demands that can fee made by manufactories.

Handling Beets with EleotricityAmong the many unexpected developments of electricity scienee is an application to the hiving of bees when they swarm, successfully tried by German experimenters. It was thought that by utilizing the electric force the bees might be stupified for the necessary period of time without being injured, and the result proved tbe correctness of the idea. The first attempt was made upon the bees that had gathered upon trees, the insects falling upon tbe ground in a kind of a trance, which admitted of their being safely handled. The next stage in the experiment was to capture the beees when theyjvere about to swarm. By introducing tbe ends of two connecting wires into a fully occupied honeycomb and turning on the current the bees were rendered inactive for about thirty minutes, while no bad results appeared to follow their awakening.
