'Mrs. Aitniu Kd wards, tho well known Kngish writer, has just completed a novel, arid to possess extraordinary interest, entitled A Blue Stocking." Twenty years ago tho theological works of Germany constituted bncfourth of tho book 'publications of that country. Now tho demand bus so fallen oil that tho proportion is reduced to onetenth. Mr. Swinburne is engaged in writing a study of tho llronto sisters Churlotto ami Kutily as poets. They left little verse, but it was very delicate, finished, and characteristic. Mr. Hughes, editor of tho Painted Post (N. Y.) Gazelle, was recently admitted to tho bar of Steuben County, and is the first colored matt admitted to practice, in tho State west of Albany. Mr. Longfellow, in the course of his work in preparing his il Poems of Places," has remarked that English and German poets are much more affected by local anil domestic associations than the poets of other countries. fioorgo Dawson, of the Albany (X. Y. Journal, can edit a newspaper, write a charming book on angling, and preach an instructive sermon lie now and then tills the pulpit of some Haptist Church around Albany of a .Sunday evening. Tho Philadelphia Times is authority for tho report that tho wife of Kev, W. H. II. Murray of Boston is studying medicine at a 2ow York college to obtain a diploma. Mrs. Murray ,'liko her nusiHUiu, is very toml oi Held sports, and uses tho rod anil gun very skillfully. The first book ever produced in England was printed by William Caxton in tho Almonry at Westminster in the year 1177, and was entiled the Dictes and Sayinges of the Philosophers." A copy ot tho original is extremely rare and valuable, fetching, when sold, many hundreds of pounds. It is a small folio volume, very beautifully printed on ash-gray paper, with red initial letters, and is remarkable for its evenness of color and distinctness of type. There is a lino copy of tho Hides " in the Hritism Museum, and Mr. Klliot Stock is engaged in producing a fao simile of it by permission of the trustees of the institution. XeleHre anil Industry. It cost about $7 to send a ton of wheat from Chicago to Liverpool. American shoes are now being largely sold in Germany, Switzerland and Franco. Cedar Key, Florida, is about shipping large quantities of reef shells to Fcriruidiha, to bo used in tho building of concrete houses. The United Stales occupies the third place in tho list of Imp-growing countries, Germany taking tho lend and England ranking second. -MilJc-beor is a new product of fermentation, in which milk replaces water. It is of a yellowish color, its density is a little greater than ordinary beer, aud its taste less bitter. Inexhaustible beds of lignite coal have been discovered on the Yellowstone 100 miWs from its mouth. It burns leadily, and steamers needing: it can help themselves. More than o,000,000 cans of corn aro now packed in Maine annually, aud sold in every part of the world, yielding a business to t hat State of about.? 1,2.00,iHM), and giving profitable employment to from 8,000 to 10,000 people during the packing season. A method of burning petroleum under steam boilers ha? been successful in Italy. It consists simply in throwing it over a thin layer of asbestos, which, being incombustible, serves to retain the oil and provide a large wick. Sheets of paper placed beneath tho furnace vxero not injured by the intense heat. The St. Paul Vionccr-Prcss says that it is snfo to estimate the wheat crop of Minnesota for this year at fully :K),tHX,000 bushels. This estimate is based on tho assumption of an ayorago yield for tho State at huge of 17 bushels' per aero. Thirty million bushels of wheat nieans .?:50,000,OOt) in cash, and $.'J0,KX0OQ means prosperity. One of the important manufacturd products of tho small country towns of New England and New York State h potato starch. It is boliuVed that marly :i.000,000 bushels of potatoes aro frequently consumed per vcar in tho states of Maine, New Hampshire, Veruiont and Now York in tho production -Of potato starch. The average prico paid for potatoes by starch manufacMirers during tho past season has been wj cent per bushel. Tho aggregato annual production of all tho factories is usually from 0,000 to 11,000 tons. A uushel of potatoes generally makos Jght pounds of starch, 'JoO bushels, therefore, being required for a ton. As tho average market quotation of potato

starch is about five cents per pound, it follows that a bushel of potatoes brings only 10 cents after being converted into starch, and the value ot the total production of Mdato starch in the count rv is from 80O,0O0 to 1,200,000 per annum. School hhiI Church. The Unitarians of Iowa have organized an Iowa State Unitarian Association. Col. o Llgo" White, a celebrated Confederate guerrilla during tho late war, ha.s become a Haptist preacher. Every negro church in Kichmoitd, of tho Methodist or Baptist persuasion, is now providing itself with a new house of worship, or has recently done so. The Austrian Government would not allow commemorative services of the death of John Hussto bo held in Prague. Father Hyacintho was to have spoken on tho occasion. Prof. E. C. Mitchell, of Chicago, who has for a few months past tilled the chair of Greek, Hebrew and Oriental languages in the University of London, England, has been formally tendered the permanent professorship. Iowa State University has had during tho past, year W0 students. Of tho 25 academical graduates, A were women ; of tho law class of lOil, 2 were women, and of the medical class of 79, 2 were women. Mr. Charles Francis Adams, Jr., desires to see tho school system subject ed to a thorough and intelligent overhauling. His experience is that tho scholar sent up from the grammar to the high schools who can really road and write is the exception, and not the rule. The camp-meeting used to be peculiarly a Methodist institution ; but it has been adopted pretty generally by the other denoniimitions.cspccially the Presbyterians, baptists, Unitarians, UniversalisLs, ami Spiritualists, besides Uie meetings held by the temperancu people, the Sunday-school workers and others. The National F.dticatioual Association holds its annual meeting at Louisville on the 11th, 15th and 10th of August. President Porter of Yale will read a paper on "The Class System,"

ami rrcsmcnt uunkic ot the Massachuj setts Institute of Technology one oik the Kussian System of Mchanie'Art Eduea1 tion as applied in his own institution. Tho Km. Joseph Cook is a well ) paid preacher. He will put into his purse Sf0O for going from Boston to , preach at Lake Bluff, Chicago. One of Mr. Cook's charms in the eyes of his 1 hearers is his exceedingly informal iminnor on the platform. He will sit quietly with his knees crossed and talk in the i conversational tone he would ue in a ' drawing-room. : Hnp hhiI Mishap. Frank Hedrick, aged 17, of Dubuque, Iowa, was shot and instantly killed by his little brother, while carelessly handling a gun. .lames Dewey, a wealthy fanner living near Flint, Mich., while overheated drank two goblets of ice-water and immediately fell dead. A farmor named Gould,of Livingston, Me., after picking a lot of potato-bugs from his vines, ate freely of bread and milk, crumbling up tho bread with unwashed hands. It is supposed that some of the poison juice of tho bugs got into the bowl, as he died before tho morning. -A farmer named Kenben White, while cutting oats in a field flear Washington Court-house, Ohio, cut through a nest of bees. His liort.es, maddened by the stings of the insects, threw him from his seat before tho sickle. He was so badly mangled that ho died in a few minutes. Accidents by machinery; John Drucker, an employee in a paper-mill at Grand Hapids, Mich., was caught in the belting and drawn several times around the pulley, causing instant death. A 10-year-ohU daughter of Mr. Warner was standing near a vertical shaft in a tlouriwr-mill at Chattield, 'Minn., when, in turning around, her I hair, which was hanging loosely down her back, caught in the shaft, and in an instant, every hair on her head, with her scalp, was revolving with the shaft. Her clothes also were torn from her body, leaving her in a nude condition. Her injuries were almost necessarily fatal. Owen O'Brien was sharpening; a chisel at a steam L'tindstone at .lotTorsonvillo, Ind., when the shaft caught in his clothes and lacerated him in a most shocking manner. foreign Noton.

Harriet Mart incau had a collection of quaint, old-fashioiietl pictures, which wero recently sold in London for$C,000. A landscape by George Morcland, painted in 1792, brought .f 1,750. The London Court of Aldermen have decided by an overwhelming vote that Sir John Bennett is not tit to bo ono of their number. Boards of Aldermen aro not usually so discriminating as to the character of their associates. Tito Houso of Commons has just granted 400 with which 20 silver watchos and golden chains wcro presented to tho Welsh miners who saved tho lives of their comrades at Tynowidd colliery last April. Each watch contains the inscription announcing that, it has come from tho members of Parlla ment in recognition of bravery in saving life.

THE NEGRO IX POLITICS. Ah Interview Willi a IVohiIhohI :Hfl!J Ut-HHlillcHH Tint lMHcatl Whiles CohiWh.mI lo Kefp Oik IkhhtmhI St'Krn Out .if I'oljllfin Tliii It!

TJmj Information ho j?ave inn was of tiiieb nature that I think its publication will contribute something to k correct tmdcrMandli'K of the .Southern situation. In reply to nn qurntion, "How are thlnga political in your Stati" he renHeil, " Well, the Black won't vote tliltt fall any wav." "Wliynnt" asked. " Well," he replied, " the fact is they will refrain from voting, bccMiic the' think It

$m pun:) mini mi ;ti irt('lll. I flUWIIIU'fi J Democrats and ItcpulillcHnv-arc unit at j thin time in opposition to negro rule. The , white men are tho property-owners of tho State, and also const ittito the educated and rettned portion of the population. It is unnatural that this dement should be controlled by the ignorant, the Improvident and uiu recKics cia. f or some vears the liegrovs had the upper hand, supported by tbe ' Federal Government and Northern symiw-1 thizerx, but they very imturallv math: bad t work of their attempt to administer Government affairs. As a consequence, the whites, J reprcsentiugall shades of political sentiment, have combined with the determination that! Intelligence and ability shall control State a train rather than ignorance and incapacity. Upon thin one point the whites are suostauliaily a unit, and they are so carnent In the matter that all other Iswes are apparently ' forgotten. The more Intelligent of the colored people appreciate the situation, and aro free to admit that they have been placed in a faNe light heretofore, by being pushed forward into politics and into public offices where their ignorance and incapacity were paraded conspicuously. Walt awhile, they say, till we get a little more education and a little more pnqiertv; we've been trying to walk before we could creep. It Is their policy now to keep out of politics for a time, waiting for dissensions to develop, u( tkf'V :iri sunt tn iln. ntimii" llu wlilli ium. pic, when the negroes will take sides and be made much of by theeunlestaiit. By simply laying low for a time thev disarm the aggressive antagonism of the white, who, having nothing to contend with, gradually diift apart, antagonizing each other upon other Issue.. Some of thoe Isues are already dimly seen, but have not yet become prominent enough to overshadow the raceissue. I tell you, my friend, if you had seen the evil effects of negro supremacy, you would sympathize with the white peoplethat b, with intelligence against Ignorance. The negroes see that so long as they are prominent in politics so long will the whites keep up this war of races, therefore it becomes the policy of the negro to step aIde for a time till the stnwrtor face splits up on some other question." " How is it about bulldozing, about which we have heard so muchi'' I asked. 4 If by bulldozing," replied my friend, "you mean the, exercise of physical force to prevent ihe neroe voting, whv I replv there 1 rery little bulldozing in Mississippi. Tiiat U to say, there U no organized violence. There are occasional election-day fracases between our rowdies and tho negroes, Just a there is between mpGctable citizens and rowdies at the Xortli, and as the negro has no spirit to tight against tbe whites he trcnerally gets the worst of it. At the mine time there is no doubt but the negroes are restrained from voting by a force that is more powerful than plivsieal force, aud that Is self-Interest. Tho wfiitesare the property-owners, the money-holders, and the employers The negro is the laborer, who must look to tbe White man for means of earning a living, lie I xhrewd and sharp, I the darkey, and lie argues that if the niHn who gives him bread and meat N opposed to his voting the Republican ticket the host way for him to insure the continuance of the bread and meat supply Is to keep away from the lwlls. Therefore he abstains fnm voting, or cle votes the conservative white man's ticket. Then, too, a strong conservative Influence is exercised over the more ignorant negroes by the more intelligent among them. It is a singular fact that when a colored man Itegins to get ahead a little in the world, acquiring a little property, he begins to grow conservative, lie liegins. to crave business and social recosrultion; he likes to he patted on the back by his white neighbor and called a good fellow, ho likes to have business transactions witli the whites, to buy and sell, and to he recognized aud spoken of by them as a progressive business man. o it will be found that nearly every colored merchant, trader, barber, or mechanic of any kind who is in business for himself, is conservative in his polities, voting tho white man's ticket, and deprecating the efforts of the radical darkies to make themselves prominent. And so they will continue, utile., some issue is raised affecting their interet as a race, when, of course, they would become united again. But this is not likely to occur. The negro question l a dead isue, and no party can ever hope to rev i ve it. The darkies have all their rights, tlicsatue s the fame relative classes have at the North the right to work for themselves; to make all they can, to take all the comfort they can: to vote if tliey choose to do so; but they will never again ho permitted to ride rough hod over the educated classes and the property Interests as they did a few year after the War " " Then you regard the Bepubllealt partv as dead in Mississippi" " Yes, I may say that 1 do sleeping certainly, aud probably dead. The Republican and Democratic parties in the .South have heretofore divided upon t lie nice question, and in Mississippi that will not he allowed to come up again at present, owing to the fact that Republicans ami Democrats have united to keep the negro out of politics. For twenty year, thcpcopleof this country have been divided on the race question; the negroes are now free.aud nreslowly hut surely demonstrating their riglit to citizenship, and working out a glorious future for themselves. They will become a race of laborers, contributing largely to our agricultural wealth. " Hut tbe man who shall seek to again precipitate the negro Info our polities, digs his own political grave. The extreme Radical of the North, who still regard tho negro as so much political capital, to bclted to promote their own selfish political ambit ioix, have their counterparts in a few extreme fireeaters, of the Mint b, who fail to see howcompletely lot is tho 4 hint Cause,1 and who continue to damn the nigger' as ferociously aa they did In tho palmy days of the slave oligarchy. But neither of these extremists have the sympathy of the masses of their respective sections. The mischievous teachings of the Northern Itadtcals fall unheeded upon the conservative elements of the party, while the mouthing of our lire-eaters rind no echo among the people. Kmanclpatlnit is accepted not only as nn accomplished fact, but as a blessing in disguise. The whites want the labor oft he colored men, aud are

ready to pay for It. In Mltppl the lalwr quest Ioh ka already adjntwl itself satisfactorily, aad both races wave gouts to work with enwrjjy to restore prosperity to tbe State. This year there m lwn more corn than cotton limited, utul our planters are gradually diversifying their crops like the farmers of the North. They proiMse to become agriculturists in the true sense of the word, and no longer concentrate their energies upon the production of ootton, buying from others tbe necessaries of life. In a few years we shall have breadstuff's to sell, instead of relying upon the Western fanners for every pound of flour we eat. Very little trqiiblooeeurs between the planters and the negro laborers: eowtracts are made satisfactory to both, and are carried out in good faith hy Inith parties to them. At one time there was much dittieulty In getting the negroes to work steadily: they were impressed with the idea that freedom meant idleness and politics, and they could not be induced to work regularly only lust enough to keep them from starving, hut gradually they have come to realize that hard labor is the lot of the black as well as the white race, and settle down to It cheerfully. They very soon get an idea of saving, of improving their surroundings, and to appreciate their earnings. This makes them industrious and faithful, Indeed, the labor ouestfou Klves us less anx

iety Just now than it does the people of the North" I have attempted to put into conci-e language the substance of my conversation with my friend, whose name, if I were at liberty to give It would bo a " familiar aa household words" to every Intelligent man in this country. He spoke with great hopefulness of the future of the Southwest, and was tlrm in the belief that the better and more patriotic and Union-loving men-were coining to the surface. Although fully imbued with Republicanism himelf, he did not express very much regret that the particular kind of Republicanism inflicted upon the .South for a number of years had received a serious if Uot a fatal stab in Mississippi, CahuOU.. ' ' m An iHtorestiwg Historical Fact From the New York Sun. After the argument upon the Florida case before the late KIcctoral Commission in Washington, Judge llradley wrote out his opinion and Ids decision in full, lie completed it at about G o'clock in tho evening on the day before tbe Judgment of the Commission was to lie announced, and read It to Judge Clifford and Judge Field, who were likewise members of the Commission. It contained, first, an argument, aud, secondly, a conclusion. Tho argument was precisely the same as that which appears in the published document; hut Judge Bradley's conclusion was that the rotes of the Tilden Electors in Florida were the only vots which ought to be counted as coming from that State. This was the character of the paper when Judge Bradley finished it, and when he communicated it to his colleagues. During the whole of that night Judge Bradley's bouse in Washington was surrounded by the carriages of visitors who came to see him apparently about the decision of the Electoral Commission which, as we have said, was to be announced the next day. These visitors luoludcd leading Republicans as well as persons deeply Interested in the Texas Pacific Railroad scheme. When the Commission assembled the next morning and when the Judgment was declared, Judge Bradley gave his voice In favor of counting the votes of tbe Hayes electors of Florida l The argument lie did not deliver at tbe time; but when it came to be printed subsequently it was found to be precisely the game as the argument which he had originally drawn up, and on which he had based his first conclusion in favor of the Tilden electors. A Sabittprged City. A strange discovery is reported from the Lake of Geneva. A tourist having lost his trunk, two divers were employed to search for it. While they were below water, they found what they supposed to be a village, since covered by the lake. Their statements led to an investigation of the spot by the municipal authorities, who took measures to avscertain the truth of the extraordinary account of tho divers. On covering the placid surface with oil, these la'ttcr wore able to distinguish th plan of a town, streets, squares and detached houses marking the bed of the lake. The ruddy hue which characterized them led tho observers to supposethat the buildings had been covered with tho famous Vermillion cement, which was used by tho Celts, Cimbri and tho early Gauls. There are about 200 houses arranged over an oblong surface, near tho middle of which is a space more open, supposed to have been used for public assemblages. At the eastern extremity lies a largo square tower, which was taken for a rock. A superficial investigation seems t,o indicate that the construction of these buildings dates from some centuries before our era. The Council of Van d has decided to have the kite of the dwellings inclosed by a jetty ftretching from the land, and to drain oil' the water, so as to bring to light what promises to be one of tho most interesting archaeological discoveries of our day.' London Unity Tikympk. Remarkable Case of Restored Reason. A Confederate soldier front the Valley of Virginia, in one of the battles of the late civil war, was struck in the head by a Miuio ball. The ball passed through tlit skull, and the surgeons, afraid to probe the wound in search of it, left tho man to die. In tho course of time lie recovered, but had lost his reason, and was sent to the Insane Asylum at Staunton, where ho remained for eleven years. At length Dr. Fatmtlcroy. an eminent physician of that city, obtained permission 'from tho asylum authorities and friends of the insane man to make a surgical examination of tho head, with tho hope of linding the ball. Ho was successful, and found the ball imbedded on tho itisido of tho skull and pushing against tho brain. Unable to extract it with any instrument nt hand, ha took a chisel and mortised it out. As soon as the ball was removed, reason resumed its control, atidthodornnged ono was in Ids right mind. Ho says that he is not conscious of any thing that, occurred during the interval of olevcn years from the time he was struck on the battleHeld to the moment the urossuru was romoved from the brain all was a blank to him. llrAcch licgislc'r. t

Oh Prtminm &MKibIy. .taiuiie Jun jmiy: Tkackery thought rmn had mad a great ptride in more enms than one wmm they consented to hide little fft aud big feet indiscriminately in big, ugly brogans of ImmHs; and there is no doubt that it was a larger stp towards real emancipation than wan obtained by the celebrated declaration of iude)enuenc and equality which are foreign to the very nature of things, and never can exist, though all the paper in the world was employed to assert them; and there is more sturdy iiw'.oCdeneo about a pair of great, ugly ts than in a cart-load of documents. English girls and women are strongly ridiculed by American women abroad for their big foot and ugly shoos, but I think it is more a question of size of shoos than of feet. Our girls have small enough feet, but they choose their shoes, as they do their gloves, a size too small, and step for they break down in a walk as if cramped. An Knglish girl, on the contrary, is perfectly oblivious of her feet. They do not look so dainty, it must be confessed, on the promenade, as those of all American girls ; but then she evidently doos not take them out for exhibition on the street she takes them out for use; and uncovered, I have a suspicion that they would be whker, softer, and smoother than those of most American girls, which aro nearly always disfigured by

corns, uuinuiis, or overgrown joints. Shall we over dare, I wonder, to wear ( Useful shoes, like men, without reference to their looks? I think-1 should be better pleased to see them doing that , universally, and as a matter of course, than polling a vote, for in it would be more of future health, happiness and ' help for them. Not that I want women to cease to be beautiful, but one's iibms change about beauty. Take men on the average, and they are handsomer as men than women are as women. They have lost nothing by throwing aside gewgaws and tight boots, but they have gained much. The other day I saw the pictures of a man and woman taken twenty-five years apart, at the time they were inarried and on their silver-wedding day. Her face was sweet, intelligent and honest; his, immature and raw. But what a change in twenty-five years ! His, noble, much handsomer than when he was young, full of the evidences of growth -and opportunity; hers, weak, faded, wantitig outline, color, vitality, nothing ' apparently behind it, evidently a "careofor" woman, whose life had spent itself in little efforts to do and bo exactly like her neighbors. Useful lioots, when sho was young, would have given her exercise, strength, freedom, and changed I the whole character of herphysiognoray, Inside imparting a better life to her children. It is a comfort to see how 1 quickly American girls get the nonsense 'taken out of them when they go abroad j for a purpose, to work and study for ex- ' ample, with only a little money and a I great desire to make the most of their chances. In the British Museum, in London, and the Museum of the Louvre, or 1'alace of the Luxembourg, in Paris, they may bo seen industriously copying ' in shoft.'dark skirts, a blouse belted in , round the waist, a dark felt hat, and hair ' cut short, no gloves, and shoos of a kind that will permit them to walk or i stand on the hard, bare stone floors. American girls at homo arc also bef ginning to learn that there is something in the world besides dress. One, a school-teacher, wrote a letter recently, asking for a design by which she could make up dresses which would not look eccentric, but which would bo useful, convenient, and available for two or ' three years, or until the clothes were worn out. She said she was determined to dross hereafter w ithout reference to , fashion, make her garments when it was convenient that is, during the months of vacation and her dresses so they should be good for two years at least, using no fanciful styles or trimmings, ; but better materials than she had been Accustomed to use, so that color and texture would remain linn. Sho said she was quite determined to do this, and see if she could not rid her mind of clothes. And a young married friend had, with the consent of 'her husband, agreed to keep her in countenance by doing exactly the same. That is a little bit oftrue heroism which a girl is working out for herself, and, as she believes, , by hcrseU, in a Western village, where, by tho way, it is much more difficult to do it than in a great city, where few know or care for you. She does not know that not only the more sensible and intelligent of the ' great and growing army of professional women do the same thing, but tho highest dames of Franco France that sunplies the world with ideas in fashion. If one will stop to think for a momont, it will bo seen that the dress of a grand dame is as restricted in one way as the dress of a. working girl in another. Tho skirt must be lung, tho sleeves and neck must afford an opportunity for tho display of laco and jewels, because these aro her permanent means of adornment ; they are not bought every day, or every week, or every month, or overy year not more than onco or twice in a lifetimeand her dross must subordinate itself to them. People who only buy , cheap ornaments change them often, but j real lace, or real gold, and real gems are for x generation, and nerhaps more than one. They are evidences of past claims to social position. Samuel B. Miller, a traveling tree agent, as if to fill the decree of poetical I justice, recently hung himself to one 1 that ho had sold in Pennsylvania.
