Tom Aueocajtoek, a yonn$ man of Atlanta, and the possessor of a fortune, killed hwmmlf because the parents of a thirteen-year-old girl whom he loved denied him the privilege of calling on her. , Ths Paris Figaro recently manufactured a tale concerning Count Moltke, in which it was stated that the great General was so weak that a servant had to feed him with a spoon. To which the German papers reply that Moltke is quite strong enough to . whip France once more.

Gekebai Wiu-iam Mahosk, the Virginia politician, looks like Rip Tan Winkle with his long gray beard and tangled locket He wears a long broadcloth coat which almost sweeps the ground; a raffled shirt with small turned-down collar, and egg-shell shaped cuffs, from which his tiny hands protrude like the calix from a lily. , His feet, "like mice, peep in and out" of his baloon-shaped trousers. He has a soft, low, country burr in his speech. Ths quilt patch from Calcasieu 4 parish, Louisiana, to form a quilt map of Louisiana for the exposition, is now completed. The design is beautiful, and the workmanship ingenious. On one side a grove of pine trees is handsomely embossed; on the other side stands a deer in the midst of a field

of golden rice. In the center are th - words "Calcasieu parish,19 worked in red and blue. The groundwork is dark brown. The design and work are from the conception and hands of Mrs. E. J. Meyer, ot Lake Charles. Mb. William Bigbxow, of Detroit, who was a soldier, then a private, in the Michigan battery during the war of the rebellion, is now traveling in Europe. At the battle of Stone River Mr. Bigelow was carrying ammunition from the caisson to the cannon, when a bullet came whizzing along and carried away nearly all of his front teeth. He spit out the loose pieces and murmured: "Uncle Sam's got to buy me a set of store teeth or Til join the rebs." And then he returned for another flannel sackful of gunpowder. Joseph M. Alsop, who died near Spottajlvania Court House, on the southern border of the Virginia Wilderness, a few days ago, had his home at a historic spot. The veterans who could tell one of "Alsopa farm run up into the tens of thousands, for 200,000 men were roundabout the place during the second week in May, 1864. The honored Sedgwick was the target for a sharpshooter's bit of leed right at Alsop's, and down he fell to fight no more except as memory and spirit that strengthened the Sixth Corps ever after. Some hitherto unpublished letters of Prof, S. F. B. Morse are mide public by Judge W. W. Broadman, of New Haven, to whom they were addressed forty-two years ago, while the latter gentleman was in Congress. A feature of the correspondence, interesting because of the advances in other departments of electrical science than telegraphy, is a quotation from a letter of Prof. Joseph Henry to the great inventor. He says; "In the minds of many the electric-magnetic telegraph is associated with the various chimerical projects constantly presented to the public and particularly with the schemes so popular a year or two ago for the application of electricity as a moving power in the arts." Mr. Gladstone has, of course, long ago lowered all legitimate records achieved in the field of exuberrant verbosity. Few are aware, however, of the fearf nl and wonderful rate at which he continues to add to the pages of Hansard. It is nearly twelve months since an enthusiastic statistician, who is also a devoted Oladstoneite, spent six hours each day during over fifty days in the library of the House of Commons and sixty days overhauling tiie newspaper files in the British Museum in the task of tracing the Prime Minister back to the first recorded sylible of his political voicew This victin of hero worship found that Mr. Gladstone had talked, up to July, 1883, fourteen miles and a half of print. He has added 700 yards in the interval. He can hardly hope to put a girdle round the earth, but he has far excelled all other windmills of his age in articulation.

Ih an address delivered by Sir Bichard Temple on "Economic Science and Statistics,9 before the British Association at Montreal, it was stated that the population of the British Empire consists of 39,000,000 Anglo-Saxons, 188,000,000 Hindus, and 88,000,000 Mohamedans, eta, a total of 315,000,000. The area of the Empire and its dependencies is 10,000,000 square miles. The annual revenue is: United Kingdom, 89,000,000 ; India, 74,000,000 ; colonies and dependencies, 40,000,000; total, 203,000,000. Including local taxation, the total revenue is 264,000,000. The number of trainedBoldjers is 850,000, of whom about 700,000 are of the do-

minant race, in aaoition, mere are

660.CGO policemen in the Empire. The

school attendance is: United Kingdom, 5,250,000; Canada, 860,000; Australia, 611,000; India, 2,200,000; a total, in the Empire, of 8,921,000 pupils. Charles Reade's kindness was pro

verbial One of many instances is related as follows by a friend: "At a critical period in my life I had lost my whole fortune in a disastrous enterprise, which left me high and dry without a shilling. I had dined at Albert Gate the night before. Next morning Beade burst into my room and planked a bag of sovereigns on the table quite sufficient to enable me to tide over my immediate necessities, exclaiming abruptly : I saw you seemed rather gene last night; there, that's something to buy postage stamps with, end f you want any more there's plenty lei D where that came from And he was gone before I had time to reply." As to the silver dollar, the picture of the United States Government getting in line before the New York Clearing House and receiving the treatment accorded by a cross teller to a newlyemployed messenger-boy, is, says the Chicago Current, very tiresome to the whole people of the country. The idea of a banking association compelling a National Treasury, in time of peace, to discriminate against its own legal tender to except a toterie of financiers from the laws which are good enough for the people at large that idea is monstrous. What right has Wall Street to dominate the Secretary of the Treasury? Has Wall Street done anything this year, for instance, which has entitled it to either our gratitude or respect? Not anything. Then give them silver or call the account square after the tender arH, refusal of silver. The way the silver law is defined in New York is criminal. Mr. John Sherman first consented to the arrangement, and no Secretary since has had the rectitude to abolish the practice and execute the will ot the people The "Memoirs of Lord Malmesbury" are creating a considerable sensation, and all the papers are quoting some of the choice bits. There are very funny glimpses in the private life of Gladstone and Disraeli; for instance, Gladstone's appearance is described as disappointing, because so like that of a Catholic priest, and one of his crazes in the course of his musical education was an enthusiastic love of negro melody, which he used to sing with the greatest spirit and enjoyment, never leaving out a verse. " Camptown Races" was for a time his favorite ditty. Disraeli appears as much less cold and apethetic in private than his sphinxlike immobility in public would suggest. He confesses himself on one oc

casion, when there was a prospect of getting office, that he felt as delighted as a young girl going to her first ball,

and, according to Lord Malmesbury, was, when outside of the house, always in the highest state of elation or the

lowest depth of despair, according to

the fortunes of the day. A fine piece

of unconscious humor is this: "Disraeli

was at the breakfast, and seemed rather low. He told me the Queen had sent

him her last book.

The railroads, says the Current, would all be making money if interest were not being paid on misspent money. As it is, even, many corporations, after watering their stock twe or three times, are compelled to greatly expand the meaning of the term "operating account" in order to hide from the public the true earning-power of their enterprises. The Northern Pacific earned over $12,000,000 last year. Even with all the possible peculiarities of railroading likely to be concealed in $7,000,000 of "operating expenses' $5,425,820 left as a tribute not to the men who advanced the money to build the road, but to the men who, buying the stock after the real builders had lost their all, now gather a tithe from the people of the far northwest which is surely worth the collecting. So, too, the Wabash, out of nearly $7,000.000 received, paid only two-sevenths of that sum for labor. Now, why should any railroad, operated in the way a man builds a house or drives a team, take in $7,000,000, pay only $2,000,000 for labor, and still be bankrupt and in the receiver's hands? One of the surest reasons for thes industrial absurdities lies in the colossal fortunes piled up so rapidly and so recently in Wall street. When Jav Gould showed the doubting Thomases of the Stock Exchange $70,000,000 of ''property," he did more to establish the truth of Proudhon's position that property is robbery than all the writings of Karl Marx or the orations of Ferdinand Lassalie.

PHENOMENAL CITIES, Growth of tho Principal Towns of the United Statea During the Nineteenth Century At the beginning of the nineteenth exntury there was not a city in America north of Mexico that contained as many as 75,000 inhabitants. Philadelphia led ith 70,262, New York coming in for the second place, with a little over 60,000; Baltimore third, with 26,000, and Boston fourth, with 24,000. When the century was ten years old, Philadelphia was still the leading city, having 96,664, or 271 more than New York, Baltimore running close toward 50,000, and Boston having 15,000 less than Baltimore. In 182U there were but two cities in the United States with a population of 100,000 and over, and New York was first, with 123,000, Philadelphia having dropped back to the second place, with 108,000. West of the Alleghany mountains there was no place dignified by the name of city. Cincinnati had less than 10,000, St. Louis less than 5,000, Pittsburgh less than 8,000. There was no such place as Chicago till after 1840. New Orleans had more than trebled her inhabitants from Ihe opening of the century to the end of the second decade, and ranked as the fifth city, and next

after Boston. In 1830 New lork

showed above 203,000, and Philadelphia but 167,000, Baltimore still ahead of Boston, but not half equal to Philadelphia, and New Orleans still holding the fifth place. . There were still but two cities with 100,000 and over. In 1840 New York had 312,000, Philadelphia 258f000, Baltimore 134,000, New Orleans, 102,000, and Boston but 93,000, having exchanged rank with New Orleans, Cincinnati coming next to Boston with only half as many inhabitants. In 1840 the population of St Louis was but 16,469, and there were eighteen cities ahead of her, Washington, with 23,000, being one of them. The mid-century decade census returned six cities with 100,000 and over; two with more than 300,000, and one, New York, with 515,547. Boston, with 136,000, had slipped past New Orleans, Vhich has not yet regained her rank of 1840. In the middle of the century there were six cities west of the Alleghanies, including New Orleans and San Francisco, rated above 30,000, and Chicago was not one of them. St Louis had risen to 77,000, Louisville to 43,000, and San Francisco from 500 in 1840 to 34,776 in 1850. The population of Chicago in that year was but 29,963. She has added Over 600,000 to it in the last thirty-four years,according to her latest local census. The whole urban population of the Mississippi valley, including Pittsburgh, New Orleans, and counting in San Francisco, was in 1850 buc 434,242 of cities above 30,000. New York alone had 81,000 more than all the cities west of the Alleghenies over 30,000 each. So far there had been nothing of that phenomenal growth which has since made some of the western cities the wonder of the world. In 1860 the cities of the Union ranked in this order : New York first, Philadelphia second, Brooklyn third, with 260,000, Baltimore fourth, Boston fifth, New Orleans sixth, Cincinnati seventh, St. Louis eighth, and but 200 behind Cincinnati, and Chicago ninth, with 109,050 an increase of 80,000, or nearly 280 per cent, in ten years. The increase of New York in the same years was but 290,000, or about 56 per cent. The seventh decade of the century was ushered in with the acoompaniament of the most appalling civil war of the historic era of the human race. For four years it was a check upon urban growth as well as the general increase of population throughout the country. Hitherto the ratio of increase had exceeded 33 per cent, per decade. But in the decade from 1860 to 1870 it fell to but a little over 22 per cent for the whole country. In this decade New Yoik increased but 136,000, or less than 18 per cent, but Chicago's addition to her population from 1860 to 1870 was 189,000, or 144 per cent., and she took rank as the fifth city of the nation, having passed Cincinnati. Baltimore, Boston, and New Orleans. San Francisco had advanced from 56,000 to 149,000 an increase of 93,000, or nearly 198 per cent., in the clecade, and had caught up with and passed Washington, Albany, and Louisville, all of which outranked her in 1860, and had beaten every city but Chicago in the per cent, of her growth. The four cities ahead of Chicago in 1870 were New York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn and St. Louis, though the right of the latter to the fourth place was questioned by Chicago and doubted by the public In 1870 there were fourteen cities having over 100,000 each, eight over 200,000, four over 300,000, and two over 600,000. New York had but 58,000 less than 1,000,000. From the beginning of the century her increase to 1870 was nearly 900,000. The census of 1880 returned twenty cities having over 100,000, ten over 200,000, seven over 300,000, four over 500,000, two over 800,000, and one (New York) with 1, 206,299. The rank of the' cities having over 500,000 each was New York first, Philadelphia secodd, Brooklyn third, Chicago fourth, with 503,000, her increase being 205,000, or nearly 80 per cent. The rank of San Francisco was tenth, and next to Cincinnati, and its increase from 1870 was 84,000, or a little over 56 per cent. It had passed New Orleans and was rapidly closing on Cincinnati, having distanced Washington, Louisville, and Buffalo. Pay During The Revolution, The scale of compensation was at the extreme of moderation. In no degree, however, in the absence of value to the currenoy in which it was rated, could 'pay have been invested with the attraction of reward. Yet it is submitted as not devoid of interest. To the office of director of the military hospitals was attached the pay of $150 per month, two rations, one for servant and two of forage; to that of the chief physician and surgeon of the army, $140 per month, two horses and wagon, and two rations of forage; to each of the three chief physicians and xurgeons of the hospitals, $140 per month and two rations; to the purveyor, $130, and his assistant $75 per month; to the apothecary, $130 per month, and his two assistants, $50per month each; to the fifteen hospital physicians and surgeons $120 per

month each, and and to each of the twenty-six mates $50 per month. The stewards received each $35 per month; the clerks and storekeepers $2 per day; the seven matrons 50 cents each and a ration per day: the thirty nurses each 2 shilling and a ration per day, and the orderlies, if soldiers, 1 shilling and a ration, and if citizens, 2 shillings and a ration a day. Magazine of American History. Prince Jtrapotkin's ( at Does a cat see its reflection in a glass? Such in the question which has been raised in the columns of the Bevue Scientifique. Among others Prince Erapotkin has sent his experience from his prison. The Prince has, it seems, during his captivity made a humble friend of a cat. "I see," says the Prince, "by reading the interesting notes in the last two numbers of the Revue that there yet exists a doubt as to whether a cat can see its reflection in a glass. I have a cat about fourteen months old, which I have brought up in prison, and as regards it, at least, there can be no doubt upon this subject. When it was little, it amused us much by seeking a cat behind the glass, even when I showed it a very small one. I have just repeated the experiment by showing it

a small oval mirror twenty centimeters long. When it saw its own reflected image it immediately assumed a serious air. It endeavored to touch it with its paw, but finding that there was a glass interposed, it peeped behind the mirror. If I drew the mirror backward it pursued it until, being quicker than I was in its movements, it discovered that there was no cat behind, and then it went away and did not concern itself about the reflection any more. I should add that my little pupil, as a general thing, is very intelligent. For instance when it wants the door opened it does not mew, it stretches itself to its full length, and shakes the latch with its paw. If the door had another kind of fastening, it would certainly open it by raising the latch. It knows perfectly well the meaning of all the bells which ring in the prison that to bid the inmates rise in the morning, that which sounds before soup is served. Its dictionary is very limited, but it understands perfectly the meaning of the words it knows. Thus, in the evening, when I walk in my room, it performs all sorts of gambols, and, by making certain special sounds, endeavors to make me play with it at hide and seek (it plays this game exactly as do children, and insists that each party should hide in his turn), or to draw a string along for it to run after. If, in reply to its invitations to play, I say to it: "What do you want? Pood! drink!" it is displeased, goes with a sulky air to sit behind my little stove, but when I say, 'the string?' it replies immediately by two sounds, concerning the affirmative tone of which there can be no doubt I could relate other instances of sagacity, but I do not wish to impose upon the credulity of your readers. There is, however, an interesting point which it would be well to have cleared up. Are cats susceptible to music? Without being able to affirm positively, I believe that they are. When my cat was little, it several times seemed to us that it found real pleasure in listening to some air of a pleasing cadence for example, the waltz from 'Faust' provided that it was sung by a very high and pure voice. We even thought that music caused it to assume almost a sentimental air. It is unnecessary to say my cat, like all others, is very susceptible to caresses, and for I must confess its faults to flattery. In general, cats are less intelligent than dogs, but by care and attention their intelligence can be highly developed. I am sorry that I have not anffieent time, or I should undertake the education of my cat by a system oi! cards, as proposed by Lubbock.1 Pall Mall Gazette. Cork Gathering. The oork tree belongs to the class oi oaks; and there are two trees, Quercua suber and Quercus occidentals, that from time to time shed their bark or outer coating. This coating is the oork of the trade; but the bark shed by nature is not marketable, because it does not contain any sap, which is necessary to retain the elasticity.. Oork for industrial purposes is gained by peeling. After a tree is three years old, the peeling may commence; but cork of that age is of inferior quality, and the peeling would kill the tree. Trees of twenty years give cork of a fair quality, increasing until the tree has gained the respectable age of 100 or 150 years, when the bark becomes hard and unwieldy. The circular incisions are made around the trunk of the tree and connected by perpendicular cuts, allowing the two half circles to be removed. Care must be taken not to disturb the fibre, or inner bark, which keeps the tree alive. The peeling process can be repeated on the same tree at intervals of from eight to ten years, yielding cork plates from one to four inches in thickness. The half-round cork pieces are pressed into plates while still moist from the tree. Then the rough coatings are removed, and plates are immersed in boiling water for several minutes and pressed again. After that, they are piled into bundles, fastened by iron hoops, and are ready for the market: The raw material will sell from four to seventv cents per pound, according to

the quality and thickness, and is not

subject to any import duty. The fullgrown cork tree reaches a height of seventy feet and a diameter of five feet. It grows in the almost impenetrable forests of Spain, the southeastern part of France and Algiers, and Senegambia in Africa. The quality of the cork depends very much upon the lay of the land, that exposed to the greatest heat being the finest. Each tree yields cork of two dimensions, the bark on the northern side of the tree being the thinnest. Experiments have been made to cultivate the oak in Florida and California ; but, so far, they have not resulted in success. There is a good prospect, however, that cork of a marketable quality may be obtained in the former State as the oak plantations advance in age. Anon. "Why are they called almighty dollars, papa?" he asked of his father. And the old man replied promptly: "Because they are almighty hard to gt"

Mexico In shape a deflected trapezoid ; in area 741,590 square miles; stretching through almost eighteen degrees of latitude and banded by twenty-five full meridians ; traversed by the great mountain ranga that reaches from Behring's Straits on the north to the Straits of Magellan on the south (hern called Sierra Madre); breasting the Gulf with 1,600 miles of coast, lapped by the gentle Pacific alon 4,000 miles of shore; holding within its limits 146 cities, 371 towns, 5,743 villages, 5,869 landed estates, and 16,326 farms; possessing urban property to the value of $168,743,582, and suburban property to the value of $213,620,832 ; the homes of upwards of ten millions of people; this is the Mexico of to-day once the land of the Chichimecas and the Kingdom of Neguameth, the home of the Aztecs and the empire of Montezuma, the conquest of the Spaniards and the inglorious dominion of Cortez. Mexico is a Federative Republic of twenty-seven free and independent States, one Federal District, and one Territory. The supreme power of the Federation is divided into three branches Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. The Executive power is vested in a President, elected by a vote of the people every four years, his term of office beginning December 1. He is assisted by six ministers for Foreign Affairs, Interior, Justice and Public Instruction, Public Works, Finance and Public Credit, War and Navy. The Legislative power is vested in a National Congress, composed of a Senate and Chamber of Deputies. The Senate is composed of two members from each State and the Federal District, one-half the number being elected every two years. The C hamber of Deputies is elected as a body every two years, one deputy being allowed to every 40,000 inhabitants, and to every fraction thereof in excess of 20,000. The Federal Judicial power is vested in a Supreme Court of Justice, with subordinate District and Circuit Courts. The judges of the Supreme Court are elected for a term of six years by a vt.te of the people; District and Circuit judges are appointed by the President The State governments are almost identical with those in our country. On a war footing the army is composed of 131,523 infantry; 25,790 cavalry; 3,650 artillery. Total, 160,963 men. The navy consists of seven war vessels and four or five coast guards. Of the people of Mexico, 1,882,522 belong to the Caucasian race ; 3,765,044 to the native Mexican race ; 4,35431.8 to the mixed races. According to the

Constitution, all persons born in the-jw. Bepublio are free, and slaves receive lV.

sou. aii wno are oorn oi mexican fathers within or without the territory of the Eepublic; foreigners who may become naturalized according to law; and those persons who acquire real estate in the country, or who have children born to them therein, are, according to the Constitution, citizens; and all citizens are obligated to aid in the defense of the country and to contribute to the public revenue. Many false notions regarding the Mexican people are current in this country. They are with the exception of those of one mountainous State, peaceable and well disposed towards foreigners. No people respect law and officials more than they; and paradoxical as it may apper, this is why revolutions are so easy, for when a high official rebels, so great is the respect of the people for him, that they follow him at the risk of property and life. Unfortunately our conception of Mexicans have been moulded in conformity with the ruffians who congregate along the border, that region being their favorite resort, as they can escape arrest by crossing the division line.

Palovzean Funeral Customs. In graveyards of the Palovzes, in the counties of Borsod and Heves, may be seen here and there pyramidal monuments of stone, with niches in their sides for images of the saints. They are a survival from the ancient heathen altars of these people, the Rumanians of old, which were erected in honor of the sun-god; and to this day also may be seen on many of the houses of the Palovzes the symbol of the pyramid with Baal's eye, the use of which has come down from generation to generation,without the peasants knowing what it means. Children who die stillborn, or without having received baptism, are buried as near as possible to the pyramidal monuments. It is a part of the folk-lore of the Palovzes that the little ones who are laid to rest near these Baal pillars will at the end of seven years come out from their graves, when, if some good soul Mill come near them and utter the baptismal formula, they will immediately become little angels and go to heaven; but if the baptism is not given they will have to wait seven years longer for another opportunity to be released. Many other reminiscences of Baal worship survive among these people. Tho mother who has lost a young child wraps her head as a sign of mourning, in a fiery red cloth. The former prvealence of cremation is indicated in the custom of burning the clothes which the deceased wore last. The tear-jugs ot the ancients may still be found in the houses, of exactly the old form and size, but destined to a quite different purpose. Another peculiar custom at the funeral feast is to lay a plate with salt and bread upon the table, for the use of the soul of the departed one, if it should appear in the circle of friends.
