One of the amenities of debate in the British House of Commons, for irhioh that body has lately become notorious, 'Occurred in a passage at arms between Mr. Goscheo, Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Sir William Vernon Harcourt, The latter, addressing the former in a speech teeming with bitter -personalities, said: "You have gone from this bench a deserter.

Senatob Spooxek, of Wisconsin, who lias just returned from Europe, says : "The entire French nation thinks only -of revenge on Germany, and dreams of nothing but recapturing Alsace and Xiorraine. Boulanger has lost his position of the popular idol through too Onuch flamboyancy. He made himself laughing-stcck almost before he reached the pinnacle of a popular idol The Germans are as full of the war spirit as the French) and a collision is inevitable in the near future.

It is reported that Edisbn is working Upon an invention for the conveyance of electrical messages from ship to ship at sea, using the sea itself as the medium of transmission. Sounds may be transmitted through the sea to great distance, and the invention proposed is based upon th&t fact Each ship is to be fitted with an instrument analagous to the ear of a living animal a submarine telephone, in fact, and it is be lieved that this will be more sensitive to sound waves transmitted through the flea than are the ears of the sailors to similar waves in the air. A quaint old locomotive has just been assigned to duty by the Illinois Central Railroad Company on the LeKoy and West Lebanon Line. It has -one pair of drive wheels and two truck wheels, making only four wheels all told under the curious little machine. It weighs, with the tender and all equipments, less than ten tons. Twenty-frvvo years ago it was stored away at Dubuque as useless, but the present rush of business has created a necessity for again pressing it into the service. Some of the old-timers in railroading mav remember it as the Vixen." Gkn. Longstbeet is living quietly at Gainesville, Ga. writing a book on the war. As he finishes a chapter he sends the manuscript to Washington to have all dates and figures verified from the official records. The General says: "I expect both sides to pitch into me, and I am taking time to be certain of all my statements.19 Gen. Longstreet's publishers do not care to have him say very much concerning his book, but it is understood that the volume will create much discussion and will be especially interesting to those who understand the technical details of the science of war." The weight of your signature may be ascertained by means of those delicate scales made for delicate tests in assaying. They are adjusted to milligrammes, and are so sensitive and so fine that an eyelash can be correctly weighed on them. You can write-your name on a slip of paper with a lead pencil and then find out how much your signature weighs. The weights are the mere atoms of aluminum, not half ao large as the head of a pin. The machine is so delicate that a little dust blown in from the street might affect its workings, and it has to be carefully cleaned after each exposure. It is made of aluminum, platinum, and the finest tempered steel. It costs as much

its weight in gold.

There is a strong feeling against the Protestants in the City of Mexico. The Catholic bishop of that place has forbidden his people, under pain of excommunication, to sell any of the necessary articles or tools for their buildings or other establishments to Protestants or persons of any other sect ; to five them personal help, such as that given by masons, blacksmiths, carpenters, etc. ; to advise them or favor any of their undertakings. It is equally forbidden to send boys or girls to their chools; to receive the pamphlets or books whicJi they distribute; to treat with them on religion, even though it be to combat them, without the express permission of the bishop; to attend their ceremonies of worship, and visit their est ablishments, though it be merdy from curiosity. The Baltimore American tells the following remarkable story, which comes from one of the seaside resorts : It ia reported that a young lady of ex--cell en t family has developed a species ef insanity of a novel character. She fos given lately a great deal of her

time and attention to amateur photog raphy, and had become possessed with the insane idea that she could produce the effect of photography on everything. The other morning she put a handsome dress in front cf the camera, r l placed herself in pura naiuralibis behind it She then started out, leaving her room to take a walk, fully possessed with the idea that she had photographed the dress on her own charming person. Unfortunately, however, the first person in the hall she met was ono of the bell-boys, who was so thoroughly frightened thf t he gave a scream and darted down the stairs. Assistance was called, when the young lady w as taken back to her room and dressed, but the photograph apparatus was thrown out of the back window of the hotel.

The Albuqt,erqne (N. M.) Citizen records the courage aud presence of mind of a lady of that place. While in her garden p eking berries she felt something bite her on the neck just below the ear. She cuickly put her hand up to the place, when a centipede curled itself around hei.a forefinger. She immediately trashed it off wita her other hand, ani, strange to relate, did not faint nor stream, but ran into the house, and, finding the ammonia bottle empty, took a big knife and stuck the blade into the fire in the stove until it got hot, when she applied it to the wound. Next she took some soda and applied that, fastening it by wrapping a cloth around her neck. By this time her neck began to swell, and she says she felt as thot gh the top of her head was about to secede, and closed her teeth tightly to make sure that her head was not gone. In a short time she felt greatl r relieved, and then informed her daughter. She did not even call for a doctor, but she has procured another supply of ammonia.

The statistician at Washington has his figures on the present population of the United States disputed. He concludes that our population on June 30 last was 59,89J;,000. By the census of 1880 the population was then 50,152,886. Now, during the decade beginning with 1870, the natural increase of population by reproduction is known to have been 22.73 per cent., or at the average rate of 2.28 per cent, a year. Even on the principle that the ratio of natural increase is decreasing, as, in point of fact, i probably" is, it would still seem safe to place the ratio during the present decade as high as 21 per cent, or 2.1 per cent, each year. At this rate the ii crease for the past seven years woxdd b 7,371,471. Meanwhile, without counting the immigrants from Canada during the past two years, the gain from immigration ha? been 8,793,002. Theso figures, added to the population of 1880, give a present total of 61,318,389. en if the annual increase is considered as only 2 per cent, the population wculd be a million more than the actuary's estimate. It is safe to say, therefore, that our population is at present nore than 60,000,000. It is in any event growing so rapidly that there is no need of a low class of for

eign accessions.

The Conservatives of England have lately been greatly shocked by Glad

stone's appro" al of the tunnel project to connect that country with France. Ever since Napoleon's time England has been sensitive about the dangers of a French invasion, and this prejudice against a tunnsl is only one evidence of a morbid feeing that cannot be reasoned out, as it has never been reasoned into the public. A force of fifty men on either the English or French side could guard either country against invasion from t ie other ; but frightened people do not regard facts as obvious as this. The commercial ad van t ages of a tunnel would be important to both countries, and Mr. Gladstone does well to make his appeal to the sober sense of the people. The Conservatives cannot well be xnidder at him than they are now, and in attacking their prejudices on a new side he obliges them to take up a new line of thought that may compel some to come in harmony with himself. The fear of the tunnel is not more baseless than the fear of home rule; but somo may have one without the other, and as the habit of reasoning rightly grows by use, it will in time be extended far beyond its original beginnings. It is in this way that truth finally overcomes the most obstinate prejudices. The man is appealed to on some side where he is not guarded, and when his confidence is gained he may be easily diverted in an entirely opposite direction from that he first intended to go. Gen. Houston's Falsehood. The vote of Gen. Houston in the United States Senate on the repeal of the Missouri compromise rendered him temporarily unpopular in Texas. la the political campaign following he drew large crowds as usual wherever he spoke on the hustings, but was sometimes interrupted. On one occasion a local politician, Col. (call him Thompson), gave the old veteran the lie direct in the middle of a speech. The General paused; all eyes were upon him, and every one was curious to see how "he hero of San Jacinto would resent the wanton insult. He said promptly and very deliberately : "Col. Thompson calls me a liar. Profound silenco. I cannot truthfully say that in my long life I have never tol'd a falsehood; but, fellow-citizens, I will now tell the biggest lie I ever told in all my life Col. Thompson is a gentleman V Harper's Magazine,

Old California Hotels. UI was in California during the stirring days of 1851-2," said an old, tall, lank minstrel man who has been in Australia for the last twenty years, and who recently returned to this country to die, being aiHieted with an incurable disease. "I was 14 years old or so,w he went on to a reporter of the Syracuse Standard, "and a hancrer-on at my uncle's mining camp. We ran into San Francisco frequently, and I shall never forget the attractions which two rival hotels offered to the public to eclipse the other's patronage. One of them was known as the Clean Shirt and the other as the Golden liagle. The Clean Shirt started with a nmall one-horse brass-band concert on the balcony every evening, and drew big

crowds, including about all the Golden ; Eagle's guests. Pretty soon, however, : the Clean Shirt began to lose her boarders by the score without any ap- ;

parent cause. The proprietor enlarged his brass-band and polished up his bar without effect. It did not take him long to find out that the Golden Eagle was having nightly cocking mains and dog-fights for the exclusive benefit of her guests. Then the Clean Shirt got back part of her custom by introducing private prize fights and slugging matches. It's a fact, gentlemen, that when miners and others had personal differences to settle they used to offer their services to the proprietor of the Clean Shirt, who paid well for n fight, the money going to the winner. Of course these exhibitions were given in private quarters and none but guests and their friends were admitted. The Golden Eagle next enhanced its attractiveness by knocking out one end of its dining-room and building on a stage and a green-room and other like accessories, and had variety performances at every meal. "Women were scarce in that part of the country and the G olden Eagle's half-dozen serio-comics, which came on from the Lord knows where, proved a great card, a better one than the Clean Shirt with all its ingenuity could play. One day, however, a desperado went into the Clean Shirt and shot a bartender, a phenomenon which made her famous and placed her far ahead of the Golden Eagle in the estimation of the traveling public. But the proprietor of the Eagle was r.n ingenious, enterprising cuss and saw his opportunity. He headed a gang which went out and captured the murderer, and, bringing him back strung him up on the dining-room stage one evening at supper, and all the guests, transient and perman ent, were accorded the privilege of firing their revolvers at his dangling body. That was a great day for Golden Eagle, One shot accidentally went through the head of a waiter, and the entertainment far exceeded the proprietors most sanguine expectations. " Men of Genius So far from being narrow the man of genius must, one should say, bebroad in tiie range of his conception, if not in that of his execution. Thereis a sense, indeed, in which every artist would be the gainer by becoming universal. Thus the poet and the painter may each profit from a full and exact study of the facts of natural sciences. But "then the artistic benefit defends on the subject being studied not as a savant would study it, merely for the sake of precise knowledge, but fcr the sake of the poetical aspects, relations, and suggestions which the facts present. So true is this that ono is hardly going too far in laying it down as a canon that a painter ought not to be a good reasoner on the causes of natural phenomena, and that a painter ought not to be an authority in the realm, say, of purely historical or ethical discussion. The lives of great men often shown us a strange and perverse inclination to break through the bounds of their proper domain. More than one man of undoubled genius has, it is averred, ex pressed regret that he had not attained distinction in some other line than his own. Wolfe, when actually eugaged in his last crowning feat of generalship, is said to have declared that he would sooner have written Gray's "Elegy." Goethe, not satisfied to be the greatest German poet, ras ambitious to become a servant as welL Suchs facts appear at first sight to contradict our theory, that superlative performance of any kind '"inlies a corresponding concentration impulse. Yet the contradiction is only apparent. We may be sups that Wolfe who, by the by, became a soldier soon after he was 13 was, on the whole, more passionately desirous of military than of oetic distinction, just as we know that in Goethe the poetic impulse was the most potent and permanent. Such occasional roving ambitions may mean nothing more than that the great man, like the small one, is apt to overestimate what lies beyond his reach, or perhaps that he, more than common men, is aw;ire of the limitations that hem him in, and is now and again disposed to rebel against them. Gentleman's Magazine, A Worm that Eats Up Steel llaiis. The existence has just been discovered of a detestable microbe which feeds upon iron with as much gluttony as the phylloxera upon the vine. Sometime ago the greatest consternation existed among the engineer employed on the railway at Hagen by the accidents occurring always at the same place, proving that some terrible defect must exist either in the material or the construction of the rails. The German Government directed an inquiry to bo made aud a commission of surveillance to be formed ior the purpose of maintaining constant watch at the spot where the accidents one of them attended with loss of life had occurred. It was not, however, until after six months had elapsed that the surface of the rails appeared to be corroded,, as ill by acid, to the extent of 100 yards. The rail was taken up and broken, and it was perceived that it was Ikeraly hollowed out by a thin gray worm, to which the qualification of "railoverous" was assigned, and by which name it is to be classed in natural history. The worm is said to be two centimeters in length and of the size of the prong of silver fork in circumference. It is of a light gray color, and on the head carries two little glands Allied with a corrosive secretion, which is ejected very ten minutes upon the iron. This

liquid renders the iron soft and spongy, and of the color of rust, and it U then greedily devoured by the insect. 14 There is no exaggeration," says the official report of the commission, "in the assertion that this creature, for its size, is one of the most voracious kind, for it has devoured thirty-six kilogrammes of rail in a fortnight," Cologne Gazette. Pretty Legends CoimeetcJ with Trees. Near an old German castlo is a lime, which a boy, accused of killing hia master, planted w ith its head in the earth, to attest his innocence if it grew and flourished. Two friends were attacked by robbers in a wood, and ono of them was killed. The robbers having been put to flight by a Hash of lightning, the surviving friend, found kneeling at the side of his dead companion, was condemned to death for his murder. On his way to execution he planted a stick, which he adjured to take root and grow if he was innocent; as, of course, it is proved that he wrs by the beautiful apple tree that the stick became. Somewhat similar is the

account of the Luther elm near Worms. A bigoted old Catholic lady, planting a stick in the ground, declared her resolution not to accept the new faith till that dry stick became green. Tho fact that it did so proves the interest taken by trees in the preservation of orthodoxy, but it would seem that tho elm tree takes a special interest in matters of this sort, for is not the elm troo the symbol of St. Zenobius, when the coffin of that saint was carried past it a dry elm trtso suddenly burst into leaf?" Another way by which trees revealed their inherent sympathy with humanity is by bleeding. Both Virgil and Ovid tell the story of Polydove, ono of tho Priam's f;ons, intrusted to the care of a king of Thrace, and by him killed after tho taking of Troy; from his grave there grew a myrtle, which, when Eneas plucked its boughs, bled in a pure human fashion, much to that hero's dismay. The present writer himself has searched for an oak tree in a Surrey wood which was said to show a blood-red sap in memory of a murder committed in its vicinity. At all events, if a deed of blood had been committed near the spot the tree in question had forgotten all about it, for no blood issued from its wound, and a disbelief in bleeding trees had to add itself to many another negat ive conclusion. The peculiarities, no less than the existence, of trees, adirit of mythological explanation; and strangely absurd those explanations often are. Here, for instance, is one of the jagged form of the oak leaves, an explanation of the same order as that which traces the minute holes in the leaves of the tit Johu'3 w ort to the needle with which tho devil pricked :it as a punishment for its devil-dispelling powers. The devil agreed with a man that he should have the latter's soul at the time when the oak leaves fell; but when he came to look a; the oak in the autumn he found it still in leaf, nor did it part with its old leaves till the new ones began to sprout. In his rage and disappointment he scratched the leaves ho vehemently that they have been in consequence jagged ever since. Gentleman's Magazine. A Turbulent Prayer-Meeting". "Uncle Josephus, I understand that there was quite a battle down at your house the other night," said the Governor of Arkansaw, speaking to an old negro whose duty it is to stay about the State House during sessions of the General Assembly to keep the legislators from carrying off anything. t "Wall, sah, we had er right sharp time down dar, sho's yer born'd, we did."

Understood His Business, "I should think you would adopt safety couplings for your freight trains,"

remarked a gentleman to the superin

tendent of a railroad, as a brakeman with a leg mashed off was carried by on a shutter. "Why so ?" asked the superintendent. "Because you cripple so many brakemen by the old method," was the reply. "Not much," said the superintendent, "This railroad only pays an b per cent dividend, while inv stock in a cork-leg

factory pays a dividend of 42 per cent.

An Army with Pipes and Faint. In everything the Koreans Jean more toward their weuterm neighbors than to the eastern ones, and conservatism is stronger than any spirit of progress, except for coal oil arid matches. Few foreign goods are seen in the open shops and out-door markets, and no Koreans are seen in foreign clothes. It almost cost a progressive minister his heed when he had the big square sleeves of the soldiers' coats trimmed down to a reasonable bagginoss, and although it saves yards of cloth and miles of cash strings to the king each year, the otienso is hardly forgiven. The Chinese, says a correspondent of the 8h Louis Globe-Democrat, taunt the Korean soldiers with wearing xoreign dress; but a civilized tailor would die at the sight of it. A Korean soldier wears first his full Korean costume of white cotton, loose, baggy, and comfortably flapping in each breeze. Over this undress uniform he puts a pair of prrple cotton trousers and a short black cDat bound with red worsted braid, black felt hat is bordered with the same braid, and the red tapes tie it fast under bis chin. He wears a cartridge belt; and a tobacco pouch, and he carries his Remington rillo in any way that seems convenient to him at the time at shoulder arms, up-side down or caught in the middle of the stock, like a dude cane. He carlies his long stemmed Korean pipe in the gun-barrel, aud while marching through the streets, or at a parade rest uses his fan vigorously. To see the Korean army in its glory one should witness one of the king's processions when his majesty goes out to visit one of his palaces or worship one of liis ancestral tombs and tablets. Every few weeks there a stir at the announcement that the king will leave the palace on a certain day and progress by a certain route. There is excitement among the mandarins then, and the sheds and houses that have been permitted to gfow uj in the streets are swept away overnight The streets resume their proper wilth, and the king, being none the wiser, thinks that his capital always wears that look. A trail of red sand is sprinkled in the middle of the street to mark the route, aid the army musters and tha populace assem bles. along that line. The king's processions are a3 brilliant and picturesque in some ways as anything that other capitals can offer, and such a Korean fete day is worth coming far to see. The people alone in their white, paleblue, b3:ight-red. and green clothes give picturesqueness and color to the scene, and when every dingy wall, tiled or thatched roof, and every open space is kaleidoscopic with them it hardly needs the gorgeonsne&s of the army, the palace guards, and the mandarins' suits to add to the scene. A Detective's Ride. Chief Drummond, of the Secret Service Department of the United States Treasury, has his headquarters in the postoflice building, and is one of "the moot ubiquitous detectives in Gotham. His business is arresting counterfeiters and keeping generally posted on the subject of counterfeits. je knows in an instant a spurious coin, and any smaller than 1 he destroys by placing the piece between his massive jaws and breaking it. One day he was going up-town in a surface-car and handed the conductor $1. When the change came back the sharp eyes of the detective discovered a counterfeit dime. He placed the coin between his teeth, broke it, and handed tho pieces back to the conductor. The conductor became angry and began to upbraid the chief for mutilating the spurious coin, It then occurred to the detective that perhaps the conductor was "shoving the queer, w so he asked him ii' he had any more bogus coins. The reply was that it was none of his business. Then followed a little scene. The chief said in a commanding way: "Show me all the money you have on your person." The conductor evidently suspected something, and showed all his money, pulling his pockets wurong side outward. An Israelite seated next to the Chief said he voud be tunder urid blitzened if dot man lived who vould make him turn his pockets. He then told the detective what bad luck he had in passing a counterfeit dollar. He said he kept a store on the oast side, and every day he offered tha t bad dollar to a customer, but it never loft the counter before it was discovered and handed back to him. His brother-in-law, who also kept a store, bad better luck, so whenever he was t.ken in with counterfeit money he sold ii; at a discount to his brother-in-law. "If you have any of those counterfeit coins on your person now, I wiil send you to State prison' coolly remarked the detective. "Tot you take ma for, a Hat?" "Ill take you for ray prisoner, if you zb,j you have spurious coin on you that you intend to pass. The detective threw back his coat, displaying his large shield. "I vas a liar, I was a liar," cried the Israelite, as he got up hastily and fled from the car, amid 3:oars of laughter from the passengers. New York Commercial Advertiser. Character Tested by a Musical Jiote. Now it is a fact, well-known and beyond dispute, that every animate or inanimate structure responds to somo chord or note of music, called the dominant. We have all felt some building vibrate in unison with the pulsation of some note df a musical instrument; we have felt "creepy" shivers run through us as some musical chord is sounded. It is well-known that animals are strangely affected by certain harmonies. Some day, when civilization h us advanced, it is believed that these evidences of physiological structure will be better understood. It will be recognized that vice and virtue are in ao cord with different harmonies, and yield to the power of different dominants; and, when onco the classification is made, and the disclosures of the dominant understood, then the extent and influence of the dominant will ba a physiological test to define the character and ruling passions of men's nature, and to decide the titneas of men for tho various pursuits of life, and even for life itself.--Exchange
