The late Montgomery Blair was the fsther of the free-delivery system in the postoffice department.

Ex-Congressman De La Matyr, the greenbacker from Indiana, has returned to the ministry, and is now preaching in Denver, Col.

The Rev. J. M. Sutherland, who was formerly "Bob Hart," the negro minstrel, is holding revival meetings at Old Orchard, Me.

The Rev. Dr. Talmage has a brother, also a preacher, located at Port Jarvis. He is a quiet man, just the opposite to the Brooklyn divine.

R. V. Gurney, of New York, claiiw! that he and Charles H. McKenzie are the only survivors in the country of the famous 600 who made the charge at Balaklava. if

Lord Chief Justice Coleridge, of England, will reach New York the last of August. Mr. W. Vanderbilt will place at his disposal three elegant cars for extensive traveling.

Of all who compose the United States senate which assembled in July, 1861, only Mr. Anthony and Mr. Sherman can be said to be still in active political life. The rest are dead or retired.

Ex-President Hayes is attending to temperance work in Ohio. He is still regarded as a strong candidate for the United States Senate, and he is by no means so unpopulsr in Ohio as he is elsewhere.

Vermont must be a healthy State. No less than five ex-Governors now living are over 80 years of age, namely: Hiland Hall, Ryland Fletcher, Julius Converse, Paul Dillingham, and Frederick Holbrook.

San Francisco expects bonanza Flood to build a bouse on Nob Hill, next year, that will cost $5,000,000, and surpass Vanderbilt's in interior decoration. It is thought that the pictures that Mr. Mackey is buying in Europe are intended for its walls.

Frank W. Smith, of^Toledo, who was a prisoner at Andersonville, will next Sunday hold religious services at the famous Providence Spring, which broke out within the stockade. He takes with him 14,000 national flags, one to be placed at the head of each grave in the National Cemetery.

The Rev. Dr. Marshall of Denver is blamed for officiating at the wedding of Osmond Tearle and Miss Conway, because the actor's wife had just obtained a divorce, and he was forbidden by the decree to marry again. The clergyman partook of a breakfast given by Miss Rose Coghlan in honor of the event.

General Grant does not like to travel on Sunday if he can help it. The other day General Porter telegraphed to him in thj^ Catskill mountains that a directors car was at his disposal for a trip to Long Branch on Sunday. General Grant politely declined it, saying: "I always tried not to travel on Sunday when I held office, and there does not seem to be any reasonable excuse for it now."

The fees which visitors at Saratoga feel called upon to pay, grow larger every year. The head-waiter at one of the big hotels bought |6,000 in government bonds after the season last year, and his earnings are said to have been fl0,000. One of the souroes of his revenue is the power to change the

Beats

of

guests at the table, something that people in foreign countries would not be likely to endure very long.

Montgomery Blair's death leaves but few old Cabinet officers alive. Among these are A. H. H. Stuart, Secretary of the Navy under President Zachary Taylor Jefferson Davis, Secretary of War under President Pierce Philip Francis Thomas, Secretary of the Treasury, and Jeremiah S. Black, Attorney General during the latter part of President Buchanan's term, and Simon Cameron, Secretary of War under Lincoln.

Jay Gould's tomb is to cost $85,000, and will have room for sixteen persons. In design this "mortusry chapel," as the builders are proud to call it, is a miniature Greek temple of polished granite. It is to be twenty feet wide, thirty feet long and flanked with columns,eight on each side and four on the ends. No stone used in construction is to be lees than Ax feet square in size, and the roof stones are to be six feet wide by fifteen feet long, weighing several tons apiece. The doors of the chapel are to be of bronxe, modeled by Augustus St. Gaudens, whoee bill for fhis service is to be _____

THE CRED ULTTY OF HUMAN NATURE. "It's easier than selling $1 gold pieces at 75 cents each," remarked a nobby young man in Chicago, to a friend. "Is that so?" was the answer. "Ill bet you $20 yon can't sell ten $1 gold pieces at 75 cents each in two hours.'" "I'll take you," said the first speaker.

The coin was procured, and the young man stationed himsef near Clark street bridge. "Here you are," shouted the young man "$1 gold pieoes for 75 cents."

In about three minutes a crowd of a hundred people gathered. But not one, offered to boy. They guyed him, and wanted to know how much profit he made. Others wanted him ran in for a swindler, and finally a policeman appeared and dispersed the crowd and ordered him to move on. He came very near being arrested as a fakir, and was gladto escspe and pay the bet.

ACTRJ2&8 COOKS.

DISHES WHICH FOOTUGHT QUEENS CAN PREPARE.

Mdlle. Aimee is a born cuisiniere. Her mother was a cook in one of the great Parisian bouses, and there the celebrated opera bouffiste learned, as a child, the rudiments of her now extensive knowledge of good cooking. Some years since the dinners she gave at the Hotel Richelieu on Lexington avenue were the subject of great talk among the French colony here, and as a rule she presided at the preparation of all dishes.

Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Wbiffin hsve a beautiful little home here, and among a large circle of friends Mrs. Whiffin is known as one of the best possible cooks, and there is a curie she learned how to make with tamarinds, the secret of which she learned from the nephew of one of the high-living old East Indian judges, the flavor of which can never be forgotten by one who has tasted it.

Miss Rose Coghlan has a flat near the park, where she occasionally goes into some elaborate cooking a l'Anglaise. Occasionally she will divert herself by serving witn her own fair handsa boiled leg of mutton with capers, orasaddle ol English Southdown, brought over to her by Captain Land of the Inman line, who is a friend of hers and a great admirer. Occasionally her cuisine assumes a wider range, and then it is usually ordered from Delmonico's. Nothing arouses the worthy lady more than having to leave all these good things when she starts on her trip to California.

Mrs. Alice Dunning Lingard. who is engaged at the Union Square theater as leading lady, has a beautiful little home of her own in Thirty-seventh street, and during the season she will entertain friends on Sunday nights there. Mrs. Lingard, who is an Englishwoman, makes no great pretensionsin anything, but she can arrange a supper upon her hospitable board with a taste, care, and piquancy that is wholly her own. Perhaps these suppers taste better because there is so beautiful a hostess at the head of the table. Seeing her as an actress gives no idea of the charm of her presence off the stage. Like many another actress, the only time she can give her entertainment is the Sunday evening, all the others being actively occupied.

New York Journal.

I 'Agnes Booth keeps a hotel. She runs it in connection with her husband, Junius Brutus Booth, who is a brother of Edwin and John Wilkes Booth, but who, unlike either of them, never had much fame as an actor. Junius Brutus Booth was the first son ot the great actor of that name, but he is a quiet, easy-go-ing man who finds no greater pleasure than sticking by the summer hotel, which his wile really manages. It is a pretty place on the beach at Manhattan, and is called the Masconomo House. Mrs. Agnes Booth, who, by the way, has just severed her connection with the Madison Square Theater, because the dis comforts of travel were too great for her, delights in making her guests comforts ble, and proves as good a hostess as she is an actress. Her knowledge of the cuisine almost surpasses that of a French cook, and, while she. of course, does none of the labor of the kitchen, many of the best dishes served are the result of her ingenuity and fine taste. In the preparation of fish she is an expert, and some people say that a fresh oass just out of the water, fried in cream according to Mrs. Booth's formula, is one of the most delicious things in the world. She herself is quite an epicure, and she enjoys the good things of the table quite as much as any French gastronome. Throughout that section of country the fame of Mrs. Booth's table will compare to her fame as an artist, where few know that her domestic tastes are so refined and perfected.
