|tumaraujs department. A GREAT POLITICAL GATHERING. An old phonograph which lias been lying in a Chicago basement for five years or more was dusted oft' the other evening and placed on a table in the midst of a select gathering of politicians. No sooner did the crank begin to turn than a voice from the phonograph shouted: 41 have robbed the people, plundered the treasury, and sought by every possible means to overthrow our system of government!" i ne politicians looKeu hi one unotner m u sad, sad way, and the crank ground out: "?deceived the people in every promise for the last fifty years, and betrayed every trust reposed in it! Honest government ! Can convicted thieves be trusted with the keys of the treasury?" Tears started to the eyes of every man in the room, and several heads were bowed as the machine spluttered away: "?precipitated a bloody war?blood and treasure?party of assassins?hung for treason?solid South?land of traitors?sayed this glorious republic!" Silently the politicians reached out and grasped one another's hands while the tears flowed some more, and the ends of their noses grew red. "The bloated bondholders," continued the phonograph. "life blood of the people?sapping the foundations of liberty? the nigger the equal of the white man?bastiles in which our brothers languish?hypocrisy? perjury?fraud?call upon the freemen of America?liberty or death?coming campaign?or become slaves forever!" The heads of six politicians fell upon the shoulders of six others, and the rumble of the gri p cars on the streets below was drowned by sobs and sighs. It was sad?it was s-a-d. 44 condemned from their own mouths!" howled the phonograph, as the crank was turned again. "Let us analyze a singleadministration,a thousand sinecuresrebellion?constitution under foot?those arch-traitors?fire in the rear?resistance to the laws of the country?ever buried in dis gracewiin miamy.? "Liar!" "Villain!" ''Thief!" ''Assassin!" "Robber!" "Caesar!" "Indian ring!" "Whisky ring!" "'Carpet-bagger!" "Copperhead!" "Rebel!? "Bulldozer!" Then there was silence. By and by, while the tears trickled down his nose, and his throat was choked with emotion, a grayheaded politician arose, and said: "Gentlemen, our object in meeting here this evening was to originate some new lies, and invent new issues for the next campaign. We can't do it! There is nothing to be invented ! There is no new lorm of abuse. There will be no need of orators or oratory. These machines?cuss the inventor?will tell it all! We are out of a job and a hard winter coming on !" Then they kicked the phonograph down stairs, smashed the motto of "Our Glorious Country," and carried a resolution to adjourn indefinitely. A Case of Assault.?There was a case of assault and battery before one of the justices the other day, and a witness with a black eye, several strips of court-plaster across his nose and one ear badly lapped over, was asked by the defendant's lawyer if he saw Brown strike White. "Can't say x J-J 11 i_ 1 o as X uiu," ne reuutru. i^iu ^uu oco i/uc wholeaffair?" "Mostly." "Well, how was it?" "Well, Smith and mc sot on the reaper talkin' evolution. Jones and Green sot on the grass talkin' religion; Brown and White sot by the edge of the straw stack disputin' on politics; three or four boys was in the barn gettin' up a dogfight." "Yes, go on." "Fust I knowed, somebody called ^..^Kuaebody else a liar; next I knowed, evolu/? tion, religion, politics and fighting dogs was a rolling over each other on the grass, and every man kicking and biting and hitting away for all he was wuth." "But did you see Brown strike White?" "Can't say as I did." "Did you see White strike Brown?" "Can't be sure of it. The only thing I'm sure of Mr. Lawyer, is that my old woman came out with a pail of hot water and licked the hull crowd and had over two quarts left for the next time. The Way He Knew.?"Who's the new boarder ever the way ?" asked Mrs. Bluff of her husbahd. "I don't know," he replied. "He's a nice looking man," shecontinued. "Yes, very nice looking." "Is he married ?" "No." "How do you know ?" "Oh, I know?" "I thought you said you didn't know him." "I don't." "Then how do you know he isn't married?" "I heard him singing 'Heaven Is My Home' as I came by last night."?Merchant Traveler. AST" In a railroad car the seats were all full except one, which was occupied by a pleasant looking Irishman?and at one of the stations a couple of evidently well bred and intelligent young ladies came to procure seats, but seeing none were about going into a back car, when Patrick rose hastily and offered them his seat with evident pleasure. "But you will have no seat for yourself," responded one of the young ladies with a smile, hesitating: with true politeness, as to accepting it. "Never ye mind that!" said the gallant Hibernian, "ye'r welcome to it! I'll ride upon the cowcatcher till New York any time for a smile from such jintlemenli/ ladies," and he retreated into the next car amid the cheers of the fellow passengers. figT Not long since an elderly lady entered a railroad carrriage at one of the Ohio stations, and disturbed the passengers a good deal with complaints about a "most dreadful rheumtiz" that she was troubled with. A gentleman present, who had been himself a severe sufferer with the same complaint, said to her : "Did you ev>r try electricity, Madam? I tried it, and in the course of a short time it cured me." "Electricity," exclaimed the old lady, "yes, I've tried it to my satisfaction. I was struck by lightning about a year ago, but it didn't do me a single mossel o' good." tfSr A fast man undertook the task of teasing an eccentric preacher. "Do you believe the storv of the fatted calf?" "Yes," said the preacher. "Well, then, was it a male or female calf that was killed ?" "A female," replied the divine. "Hov do yon know that?" "Because, (looking the interrogator in the face,) I see the male still alive." . BST'Tll allow no man to call me a liar and go unpunished," said a Texas Judge to a lawyer who had just committed that offence. "You are fined $10, sir." "It's the truth, though," replied the lawyer, as he paid the money. "I don't care if it is the truth," retorted the judge. "A court of law is no place to tell the truth." ?>ar A boy in one of the public schools, while engaged in defining words a few days since, made a mistake that was not a mistake. He said: "A demagogue is a vessel that holds beer, wine, gin, whisky or any of her i ntoxicating liquor."?Exchange. ? ^ *?. a r A CHIP (IFF THE tMii> iilAJL'K.?iuuses Scaumburg was romping with his youngest offspring the other day.

Useful Accomplishments.?A Judi| eious mother will so manage her daughters that even at the early age of thirteen they can, in an emergency, prepare a meal [of victuals. A thorougirdomestic training ; is very useful to a girl. At school, she always has a teacher or a - fellow pupil at hand to help her over hard places, but if she is set to make a batch of i bread herself, and attend to it from the time the sponge is set till the loaves are taken, j sweet, fragrant, golden-brown, from the I oven, she learns meantime chemistry, perseverance, delicate manipulation, self-reliance and neatness, and acquires skill and the habit of carrying her work in her mind, as one.act of neglect or forget fulness at any point of the process may spoil the whole. ? rlt\ n/ifr una necuuse some uuwm- uiiiiiin.ni.. ..wV in the stated and skillful performance by their daughters of household services, a eeri tain and valuable culture which cannot be acquired at school, they are willing to do themselves what, in justice and kindness to their daughters, they should require of them. Girls, left to their own devices, waste a good deal of time which might be utilized to their advantage. A girl who can climb trees, who can dance hours without fatigue, or jump rope (a very dangerous pastime, by the way), who can take long walks, who can skate and row, can also sweep, and scrub, and make bread, and wash and iron, if she is encouraged to do so; these are the accomplishments she must possess in order to make a happy home, though she may l^ave half a dozen servants at her call. Those who have sufficient curiosity to investigate this subject will find that many of the most famous women in literature and art, were as skillful in those accomplishments, considered specially, as they were with the pen or pencil, or chisel. In training girls to be useful, and ready to meet any emergency, mothers confer upon them an inestimable blessing.?Selected. A Celebrated Case.?A Warterloo, Iowa, dispatch says: The law suit known as the "Jones County Calf Case,"has been concluded in the Circuit Court of this city. It was an action brought by Robert Johnson against E. V. Miller and six other defendants, for $10,000, for malicious prosecution. Eleven years ago, John Foreman, of Jones county, Iowa, had "four calves stolen, and about the same time Robert Johnson, a neighboring farmer, bought some calves for S. D. Potter, of Greene county. These calves proved to be the ones stolen from Foreman. Soon after, Johnson was prosecuted by the Anti-Horse Thief Association, of Jones county, for the theft of the calves. He was tried twice and acquitted, and in 1877 brought suit against seven members of the association for malicious prosecution, alleging that they did not have probable cause for comencing action. The case has been before the courts ever since and has been tried five times, and each time except one the plaintiff received a verdict ranging from $3,000 to $7,500, but each time the verdict has been set aside. The last time the case was heard, which was a few days ago, the jury awarded $7,000. The costs, attorneys' fees and expenses upon all parties to the litigation is estimated at over $20,000, and several prosperous farmers have been made bankrupt, while the calves in the first place were not worth $50. Alaskan Glaciers.?James Den man, Principal of the Grammar school which bears his name, returned to San Francisco, from a month's excursion among the romantic islands and picturesque inlets of Alaska. Mr.Denman devoted much of his attention to the glaciers, compared with which he pronounces those to be seen in Switzerland and other parts of Europe to be "babies." Muir Glaciers, in Glacier Bay, named from the distinguished naturalist, is a spectacle whose grandeur cannot be described?a vast frozen river of ice, ever slowly moving to the sea and piling the enormous masses higher between the mountain banks until their summit towers hundreds of feet in the air. Where the point of the glacier pushes out into and overhangs the water, vast fragments breaking apart every lew moments of their own weight and falling with a thundering crash into the sea, to float away as enormous iceburgs, it affords a spectacle which can only be understood and appreciated by one who beholds it with his own eyes. From the summit of Muir Glacier no less than twenty-nine others are to be seen in various directions, all grinding and crowding their huge masses toward the sea, a'sight which must certainly be one which few other scenes can equal. Do Ra Me.?What was said last week on the importance of cultivating the rightkind of church music, and of good congregational singing, we hope no one will construe into an endorsement of a class of ignorant singing-school teachers that occasionally put in .their appearance. We have met a few such characters. They are generally out of the piny woods, and in boyhood went to school about three months. They have learned to run the gamut after a fashion, and know how to sing a few familiar old tunes. With a small stock of brains and a big stock of brass, between "laying-by time" and "cotton-picking time," they make their musical campaigns. It were much better for the seven-year itch to break out in a neighborhood than for these fellows to strike it. Young people gather from far and near, not to sing or to learn to sing, but to frolic on Sundays. Everything is thrown into confusion and disorder, and nobody has learned to sing, except, perhaps, one or two women, who, with voices about as harsh as a katydid's, have been persuaded that it is their duty ever afterwards to sing "tribte in the double sharps." From these men turn away. They are a pest and a calamity.?^4labama Christian Advocate. The Rise of Postage Stamps.?It is estimated that every year about 50,000,000,000 leters are posted in the world. America leads, with about 2,500,000,000, and England follows with 700,000,000. Japan, established a postal service only ten years ago, now mails annually 95,000,000 letters. Postage stamps are of far more recent origin than many people imagine. Great Britain was the first country to issue them, and in 1840 a prepaid envelope made its appearance, designed by W. Mulready. Prepaid letter sheets were issued about the same time, there being two denominations, one penny and two penny. Before that time postage was prepaid at the postoffice, or what was even more common, collected upon delivery. Now almost every country in the civilized world has adopted this method of prepaying postage. Strange as it may appear, Brazil, in 1843, was the first nation to follow Great Britain's example. It was not until 1847 that the United States began to use postage stamps, but several years prior to that time the postmasters at New York, St. Louis, Baltimore, New Haven, Providence and Brattleboro had issued stamps for their own convenience.? Cincinnati Enquirer. 1 -+ Skillkd Wokkmkx.?The tendency of modern mechanics is toward specialization. What the artisan loses in skill expanded through may trades, is gained in value and rapidity of production when he .is confined to one branch. The vast number and minute divisions of labor offer innumerable chance for individual adaptation. After long practice, encouraged by good wages and the Anglo-Saxon innate desire to excel,! workmen exhibit amazing skill. The highest excellececan only thus be attained. lie who endeavors to excel in all the profession, excels in none. The jack-of-tradesman is usually a loafer. In life in the United .States competition is close, and an averI age good, workmen, mental or mechanical, receives less than a just reward. If this ! was not so, progress would be snail-like. Workmen ought to confine themselves to a specialty. Excel in some specific branch. The specialist, whether in law, medicine or mechanics, is the one who commands place and salarv. for sunerior excellence is al ways superlatively rewarded. ?????? ? # ?
