The funeral observances of the great Frenchman, Gambetta, observed yesterday, were an evidence of the remarkable affection in which he was held by the people of his country. He represented the extremely emotional part of France, especially in its enmity toward Germany. The remark reputed to Emperor William, on hearing of his death, that "another peace breaker is gone" was wholly uncalled for at the time. It was to be expected, however, of the one whose dispatches from the battles during the FrancoPrussian war brought out the apt paraphrase: "Praise God from whom all blessings flow, -Fifteen thousand Frenchmen sent below."

In another place will be found a communication signed "Tax Payer," in which the writer protests against the acceptance by the council of the Gas Company's proposition for lighting the city. It would seem, from this communication, that discussion of this question without prejudice and erroneous statements is next to impossible, for "Tax Payer's" intelligence is presumed to be of that order that weighs matters carefully before offering an opinion for public consideration. He states that the present is $24 per post per and under the new propo$27 per month. In short, his estimates are made on the erroneous basis of taking the yearly rate as the monthly rate. .Substantially, the gas company's proposition is to light the city twenty-seven nights in the month (the schedule time used in large cities) for an increase of $3.00 per post a yeai, twenty-five cents more a month on the post. Certain extensions of the mains are promised in parts of the city now not lighted at all, and it is further proposed by the gas company to replace the gasoline lamps with gas lamps. The cost per year per post of the gasoline is $13.50, lighted seventeen nights in the month at the same rate lighted every night the gasoline posts would cost $24 a year. The chief of police's reports to the council show that a large proportion of the gasoline lamps are unlighted. No one will assert that gasoline is as good as tavr -wm- iiave tne Hardihood to maintain that it is worth anything at all. The present cost of lighting the city seventeen nights in the month, both with gas and gasoline, is about §12,500. To light the city under the —new contract of the Gas company would cost less than $15,000. And this means, the removal of the gasoline posts, considerable extension in the mains and lighted streets every night in the month.

There is another consideration to which the attention of our city father's is called, as being of incalculable benefit to the people of Terre Haute. That is the absence of a great amount of profanity and bruised shins, because of poorly lighted streets. This latter suggestion is merely thrown out as a

hint.

eeders to the great through L'.r.es, but large as is the volume of the currents there is a greater field in view of the Goulds, Yanderbilts and that ilk. It has been taid that Gould's ambition is to control an uninterrupted line of railway from the Golden Gate to the Hudson river, and of telegraphs that shall girdle the world. If so, Jind it is not improbable nor impracticable, his dream includes the control of steamship lines to connect the western terminus with Asia, and the eastern with Europe. When this comes to pass we will check our baggage at the Union depot through to Jerusalem or Hong Kong, and buy a stop-over ticket for around the world. The American freight lines are to be the medium of the cream of the worlds trade highways which have shifted from the long circle around Africa to the Mediterranean, and from that around the American continent to the short cut at Panama will merge into one across the belt alluded to. The old map showing Mercator's projection put America in the centre with prophetic truth which was fulfilled when freight and passengers began to cross it to reach Europe and Asia. Australian mails save two hours byway of the Union Pacific to England over their routes and consignments from China to Italy follow the same course. No

Gas for the City.

To the Editor of the Express. SIR: At the last meeting of the eity council a proposition to contract with the Gas Company to light twenty-seven nights per month, at the rate of $27 per post per month, the contract to run for a term of three years, was referred to the mayor, city attorney and a committee of three. I presume they will report at the next meeting of the council for their approval of whatever action may be taken. Let us look into this matter, and.^Me how it will effect the financial oondltion of our city. At the last meeting, according to the gas bill presented, there are 349 lamp posts now in use. The present rate is $24 per post per month or an increase of ?3 per post per month, at the new arrangement, which will amount to 81,047 additional increase per month, or $15, 564 additional increase per year, or S37 602 for the three years. Quite a sum to spend when under the present condition of affairs, It is hard work to make both ends meet withoutincreasing the taxlevy.

The question is, how many of ourcouncilmen will, or can afford, to vote such an Increase of expense. TAX PAYER. Terre Haute, January 6,1883.

NEW YORK, Jan.

2.—The good old

Gotham custom tor gentlemen to make New Year's calls on their lady friends seems to be dying out, and soon it will be on a par with that of ladies using the second of January as a visiting day, which is now a reminiscence of the past. Where hundreds once filled the streets bent on making their rounds from house to house to present to their friends the compliments of the season, and to take a glass of wine at each place, tens were scarcely to be seen. In upper tendom the custom has in fact entirely disappeared, although many ladies would like to receive were they not afraid that gentlemen would not come. There the New Year's dinners has taken the place of the former custom. The lady or the axntci tho nouse invites such peopleas are wanted and around the festive board the disappointments or successes of the old year, the hopes or fears for the new year are discussed. Among bachelors the unwritten laws of swelldom require that either a party club together or some generous amphitryon provide a dinner at one of the hotels.

A growing fashion now is to organize THEATRE PARTIES.

At present "Wallack's is the favorit* establishment, and the box office books show rows of seats or boxes engaged for weeks ahead. Yesterday a large party of Philadelphians came on in a special train from the city of Brotherly Love. They filled four boxes and after the performance enjoyed a capital dinner at Delmonico's ordered beforehand. This evening Mr. Gebhard, (Mrs. Langtry's friend), Mr. Washington and Mr. Phelps, give theatre parties at the same house. Tomorrow evening, Mr. Lester Wallack will appear for the first time this season on the stage of his own theatre, and the occasion will be duly solemnized by "Our Society." Mr. George Gould, Mr. Wm. R. Travers, Mr. Fellows, Mrs. Lester Wallack, Mrs. Theodore Moss and Miss Whitaker, will give "box parties" on the occasion. The most interesting theatre party however was given by Mrs. C. A. LeMoth of Fifth avenue, last Saturday afternoon to a large number of children. An entire little regiment was conveyed to the matinee at Wallack's in carriages. After the performance they were taken to her home where the lady gave them a grand ball and supper which lasted until nine o'clock.

PUBLICITY IN THE NEWSPAPERS Seems to have its dangers for 'young society ladies. The other evening I called on one of the most charming members of a coterie famous for their beauty, taste and dash. In the course of the conversation the lady with the remark "I knew I wanted to show you something," produced a letter from her pocket. "Read it, please," she said, "and tell me what you think of it." It was a love letter, dated Lancaster, Pa. The writer began with apologies for what might be construed as "forwardness." Then, although he said he was an entire stranger to her, he offered her his hand in matrimony. He said he knew of her beauty, her talents and accomplishments, as well as her wealth. He believed he would make her a good husband. He was not yet forty, had traveled extensively, could speak four or five languages, had a little money of his own, was not a clubman, never drank or smoked, possessed quiet and refined tastes, was ready to join any church she desired, and altogether thought he would do better than almost anybody among the lady's immediate circle of acquaintances. "Do you know the man I asked.

Not in the least. In fact I believe, judging by certain passages in his letter, that he has never seen me, but has learned all that he knows of me from the papers. I should not be surprised if the fellow had sent similar letters to other girls. What should 1 do Give the letter to papa and ask him to show it to the police "On the contrary, don't say a word about it.

FA4SION PLAY

in the hall, or the "temple" as he calls it which he has built, this indefatigable crank does not propose to give up his idea. It seems to me that if the papers and the certain class of religious fanatics whose aim in life seems to run in vefy small arenas and pose as wild bulls in pursuit of shreds of red cloth would let him alone, Mr. Morse and his "Passion Play" would have been forgotten by this time. No one really cares to witness a performance, or as Mr. Morse calls it a religious ceremany, like this, and if let alone Mr. Morse would have furnished another proof of the old adage that a fool and his money are soon parted.

Anybody in search of diamonds ought to get them now. Not for a long time has the trade in precious stones been so dull as at present. Times were when during the holiday season importers and jewelers could sell at a premium of fifteen or twenty per cent, over the regular price. This year they were glad to sell at a discount amonting to the same figures. People in the trade generally are not willing to admit this, but it is so none the less. A jeweler told me that a stone which was fully worth $80, had been sold for $55, and others in proportion. Prices for exceptionally large or brilliant specimens of course remain unchanged, but as these do not compose the trade the majority of dealers have made but little money.

CONFECTIONERS

on the other hand have taken in small fortunes during the three weeks ending with New Year's day. There is one fashionable establishment in Broadway near Union square, which makes large sales of fancy bon-bons in fancy boxes which took in- close on $8,000 on the day before Christmas, and on an average $4,000 a day during the week following. The world renowned establishment of Maillard the chocolate manufacturer is said to have done even better. Fortunes are indeed still to be made in the confectionery trade. It is not so long since Mail'ard started out in a small way to manufacture chocolate, and from the outset did well. Through some process in the manufacture of his cakes, his chocolate had a fashion of turning gray on the outside in a very short time. Rival manufacturerers noticed this and pointed it out as a defect to there customers. But Maillard was smart and quick as a Yankee. He advertised extensively in every shape and form, "This is the only chocolate that turns gray, take no other," and thus actually made a trade mark of this apparent defect, and literally made millions out of it.

SPORTINGM EN

at present have their hands full with cocking mains. A series of excellent fights—from the sporting point of view, were indulged in last Friday. A number of others have been arranged, and unti^fhe advent of spring, chicken fighters have their hands full. One would be surprised what a superior class of people attend these encounters. Swelldom at present is nothing if not athletic and devoted to sports of all kind from racing to prize-fighting. Pious people are apt to raise their heads in horror at this sign of the times, but when we remember how such great men as Lord Palmerston, Lord Derby and other famous statesmen of England followed the sport and besides breeding game chickens went from one place-to another to witness their encounters, and then sat down to translate Homer, as Lord Derby did or write essays and state papers a la Lord Palmerston, one inclines to the opinion that after all a fondness for the lower sports may not be so very ruinous to individual morality.

THE WEIGHT OF BRAINS.

Oambetta's Very Small Brain. St. Louis Republican.

The announcement by telegraph yesterday that Gambetta's brain weighed 1,100 grammes naturally attracted some attention, though so few people are sufficiently familiar with the French weights to know how much 1,100 grammes would be in avoirdupois, and n'ot a very much larger proportion of the public could give a very close guess as to how much a good, healthy human brain ought to weigh. The gramme is the unit of the French metric system and is equal to nearly 15j grains troy. The exact fraction is 15.4325. There are 7,000 troy grains in the avoirdupois pound and it therefore takes about 453i grammes to equal that weight. According to this Gambetta's brain must have weighed almost exactly 39 ounces, which is so remarkably light that a natural inference is raised that there has been some mistake in transmitting the cablegram. Of course there are extraordinary exceptions to nearly all rules as to proportion and size of the organs of the human body, but judging from the personal descrip tions of Gambetta, a brain of 39 ounces for a man of his frame would very nearly indicate idiocy instead of a powerful, not to say brilliant, intellect. The single line in which the dispatch is given does not give an indication as to whether the weight assigned for the brain of the statesman is considered large, small or unusual in any way. If correctly transmitted it will doubtless be looked on by anatomists as the most remarkable thing about a very re markable man.

The human brain is absolutely bigger and heavier that that of any animal except the elephant and the larger whales, but in no other animal is there so great a variation in brain weights of diflerent individuals as in man, and it is perhaps a curious fact that the higher the civilization the wider the variation. That is to say, the brain weight in savage races is more nearly uniform than in enlightened nations. While in a general way the average weight of the brain is greater in civilized races, it does not at all follow that the size of the brain is an indication of the degree of intelligence. The average weight of the adult European male brain is 49 to 50 ounces. That of the female is 44 to 45 ounces, the difference being fully ten per cent. Statistics for America very nearly coincide with this result, There are examples of men of remarkable intellectual attainments whose brains have largely exceeded the average, as Cuvier, 64 1-2 ounces, and Dh Abercrombie, 63 ounces. Daniel Webster also had a very large brain. That of Agazziz weighed 53 1-2 ounces, not very much above the average. On the other hand high brain weights have also been found where there was no evidence of superior intellectual capacity. In an Englsh insane asylum nearly ten per cent, of the cases examined showed a brain weight of over 55 ounces. An excessively small brain indicates feeble intellect, and an abnermallv large one may indicate the same. Between the extremes there is

wide range, in which it is evident that intellectual power is more dependent on quality than quantity of brain matter. But it is estimated by several competent authorities that in an adult male of anything approaching average size, a brain less than thirty-seven ounces is usually associated with imbecility. In other words, a brain of less than that weight will not confer the reasoning faculty in the civilized Caucasion, though in an uncivilized man,

rude intelligence may spring

from a brain of thirty ounces.

Dr. Pusey: Seek to love nothing out of God. God remakes a broken heart, and fillith it with love. He cannot fill a divided heart. Rring all things, as thou mayest, nigh to God let them not bring thee away from Him.

Leighton: Where the peace is that Christ gives, all the trouble and disgust of the world cannot disturb it. All outward distress to such a mind is but as the rattling of hail upon the tiles of him who sits within the house at a sumptuous banquet.

F. W. Faber: Preservation is but the continuation of creation, the non interruption of the first act of divine power and love. The strong spirit of the highest angel needs the active concurrence of God every moment, lest it should fall back in its original nothingness.

It is said that in Dr. Bethune's Bible, after his death, was found this prayor: "Lord, pardon what I have been, sanctify what I am, and order what shall be, that thine may be the glory, and mine the eternal salvation." "These words, from one of the ancient fathers," Dr. Bethune wrote underneath, "are proper for any believing sinner, in life or in death." Is it not pre-eminently a good New Year prayer? Let us all enter upon the year, and continue through its course, in the spirit of it.

WOMEN IN WASHINGTON.

Characteristics of Women In Washington City. Wash. Letter to Springfield Republican.

It has been suggested in a recent clever study of Washington life as it appears to the casual visitor that the women here are not equal to the men. This may be true sometimes. Where is it not But the instances are quite as conspicuous, some of them made so by the light falling on very high places where all the success of the man has been due to the prominent power of the womaifT It is probably not in Washington alone, either, that invitations are answered after this fashion: "I and Mr. Jones accept with pleasure,'* etc. and elsewhere as well as here one meets women whose acquaintances are spoken of as "those parties," but I suppose this city only would furnish an official leader of society M'ho-would offer this excuse for a lack of civility: "Well, you know they hain't of the same politics we be!"

Beauty and wit and fashion are eager to be bid by this famous hostess, who may boast, if she likes, of being friend as well as acquaintance of most of the distinguished people of any walk in her own land, and of many names regarded almost with awe under other skies. The charm and possible power of social life are here so exemplified that no cavalier can easily say it is fruitless or frivolous.

GIRLS IN WHITE GOWNS.

What Fine Eyes and Nattirc's Own Tresses Mufct Do for Debutantes. New York Letter in Washington Star.

A debutante always wears white, and there is a fashion now of making the dresses for the first season with the utmost simplicity, so that they look as much like the robes for a confirmation as for entrance into the world of gayety. India muslin this year has been the favorite fabric, and its ornamentation is confined to the silken belt or sash, lace, and the mass of roses at the waist. Very little jewelry is worn— sometimes none, at all—and the high lights, if any, come from the eyes, the hair, the cheeks, and the red, red lips of the bright young face. In such swe§i simplicity of dress tlie"chromo" girls, as they are called, have decidedly the best of it. The blue eyes, the golden hair and the natural red which might become florid under harsher circumstances, haVe it all their own way. It is only when costume is suitably adapted to individuality that the type appears to the best advantage.

Where there are older sisters who are already experienced from having had the advantage of several seasons training, they assist in doing the honors, but it is not etiquette for them to wear white. They may wear pink or blue, or pale green, or a colored satin coat with a white skirt, but they must not wear all white. Indeed, all white, unless it is very rich, has a significance which limits its functions. It may be worn as a morning dress at home, but abroad it denotes a bride, a debutante or a candidate for confirmation. Very rich and very original white dresses are of course an exception to this rule. Tbaekeray ou Jaoksou's Statue. Washington Cor. of the Boston Traveler.

Sumner and Thackeray were coming across Lafayette square, and the Massachusetts Senator was doing his best to get the attention of the novelist so that he would not observe the rather peculiar equestrian statue of Andrew Jackson, which libeen the wonder and delight of the small boy for many years.

To-day, as in past ye&rs, the repartee of one woman, the bon mots of another, are more than equal to those of professional wits the tact and diplomacy of a third deserve the celebrity of a Racamier.

One, a senator's daughter, of a family for many generations distinguished in political life, adds to the manj' accomplishments of civilization a brilliancy and cleverness which are almost sharpness, and make her a most coveted partner at. the dinners she chiefly affects. Another young woman of striking face and figure is so brilliant and unusual, that she is suspected of sitting for the portrait of every heroine that appears in successive novels of this society, and clever men seek her acquaintance for the piquancy of her talk and originality of her action. Another in the bloom and beauty of twenty, had the unerring instinct Which makes no mistakes and omits no attention, with the sweet graciousness that seems a personal compliment to all recipients. Washington rejoices that she is 'fastened here for many years to preside over one of the most elegant and profuse households.

Bufflftlo.

Montana Independent. A Poplar Creek dispatch says that the Yanktons, under the leadership of their chief, Black Catfish, have seized and confiscated the property of seven white hunters whom they found hunting on their reservation. The hunters were left on foot on the prairie. Over 1,000 white hunters are following the buffalo in the territory lying between Dry Fork and the Musselshell creek, south of the Missouri, and in consequence buffalos are becoming scarce in tne vicinity. Unless the buffalos should soon cross to the south side, many of the hunters will crowd on this reserve, which Chief Catfish has sworn to protect.

A Well-Preservcd Lunch From the Hickman Courier. Charles Holcombe has two biscuits baked 30 years ago, and they are well preserved. His mother baked them for him when he was leaving home, Nov. 10, 1852, for a lunch, and enjoined him not to eat them until he got hungry, and Mr. H. conceived the idea of keeping them as a memento of his mother, and has kept them well pre served 30 years.

A Curious Combat.

THE NEW-YORK TRIBUNE.

Strong:, Clean, Enterprising.

The Largett Circulation Among the Best

Rejoicing with Its readers in the better time* which reign throughout the country, THE TRIBUNE finds itself at the beginning of a new business year enjoying its own fair share of the prevalent prosperity and prepared to m$ke all its several editions thoroughly complete, entertaining and valuable. The first aim of THE TRIBUNE is to be the best and foremost newspaper in America. It has its own telegraph line to Washington, it uses the cables freely, [and it scours the world for the news, printing all that is useful. It tells what is worth it in detail. The rest is put into bright short paragraphs. Its contents are freab, choice, varied and thoroughly unobjectionable in every respect. THE TRIBUNE has long enjoyed the largest circulation among the best people. It intends to let no rival usurp its place. THE TRIBUNE is the organ of no individual, of no faction or clique, and of no interest adverse to the public good. It knows no service other than that of the people.

THE TRIBUNE believes the well-being of the country will be best preserved by keeping its Government in Republican hands. But it does not believe in Ring Rule, Bossism or Corruption in Office. It has done hard work, and taken great risks, in efforts to purify the Republican party. It expects to continue in that course, wherever or whenever this may seem needful—not doubting that this is the true road to a worthy Republican success in 1884.

Every year THE TRIBUNE offers to subscribers a few premium books of marked and standard merit. The terms are usually so arranged that either the paper or the book is a gift to the subscriber.

A Splendid Work For Families. For 1883 THETRIBUNE offers anew premium. WOOD'S HOC8EHOLD PRACTICE OF MEDICINE, HYGIENE ADD 8UR. GERY, 2 vols., 819 and 912 pp., profusely illustrated, bound in iclotli, and sold by agents for the invariable price of !10. It is written by eminent physicians of New York and Philadelphia, and published by the well-known standard medical book house of William Wood & Co. Every possible topic relating to the ^structure and functions of the human boay is explained in this work with text and picture. The book teaches how to regain health when lost, and how to take care of it when regained. It explains what to do in emergencies. It will save many a human life and many an hour of suffering and anxiety. In any ordinary family it will pay for itself in a month's time. The terms are:

It is a large octave, 753 pages, the retail price is SS. we will send THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE one year, and the History for $3, which is only the price of the book.
