In one of the upper stories of an old mansion in the suburbs of Birmingham, he had his workshop, and by his will it was enjoined that the room and its contents should not be disturbed. So the room remains to this day as Watt left it; and in it are various cabinets and drawers filled, not only with the finest examples of Wedg wood’s plaques, but with the priceless designs and moulds, many of which are by Flaxman, who was one of Wedgwood’s friends, and helped essentially in the models from which Wedgwood worked. From a merely mecantile point of view, the value of these unfinished works must be immense. The Early Inhabitants of Mexico. The Boston Transcript says: From investigations conducted by Edward Palmer in that portion of the United States acquired from Mexico, he is led to believe that the district was inhabited by two distinct classes of Indians. They were distinguishable by the mode of disposing of their dead, by the character of their dwellings and by the nature of their domestic arts. Historical (Spanish) evidence is misleading as to this, in Dr. Palmer’s opinion. The Spanish histori ans who charged the Indians of the City of Mexico with offering up human sacri fices to their gods, did the Indians an injustice. These Indians were erema- tionists, and observed simply the usual custom of burning their dead. At the present day pure Aztecs or cremationists are found in the frontier provinces, while those of the richer portion of Mexico have, from various ciroumstances, been compelled to abandon ancient usage in this respect. In Arizona we have the Apache, Mojave and Cocopah tribes; in Nevada the Digger Indians, that bum their dead. The Indians in California, through the influence of the Roman Catholic Chnrch, bury their dead. The other division of Mexican Indians, the Toltecs, were those who bury their dead. The Peno Indians, of Arizona, the Moqni and the Yuma, of New Mexico, preserve the old custom unchanged, while the other tribes have modified their usages in accordance with the re quirements of the Roman Catholic Church. Both thejcities and dwellings of the two classes differed. For reasons of their own the Spaniards exaggerated the size and importance of the City of Mexico. Dr. Palmer says it must have been but a collection of small one or two story buildings of adobe or sun-dried bricks, and in some cases the houses were constructed of upright poles with sticks laced between and mud closing the interstices. On the other hand, the dwellings of the inhumanists, the Tol tecs, the neighbors of the cremationary Aztecs, were of a superior kind. They were of three stories, and several families lived in them. They assisted the Span iards against the Aztecs, and the Span iards having furnished the Toltecs with superior arms and facilities of war, they abandoned the communal form of life. All evidence goes to show that the Az tecs derived from the Toltecs the art of constructing articles of clay. Briefly, in architecture, agriculture and the science of government the Toltecs ex celled; in war and the chase the Aztecs surpassed the Toltecs. The original Aztecs look like Japanese, the Toltecs like Chinese; and the resemblance, in Dr. Palmer’s view, was not confined to features, but extended to manners and customs. An Indian’s Notion of Weight. A Manitoba (British America) corres pondent of the New York Evening Post writes about the Indians of that section and their trading operations with the employees of the Hudson Bay Com pany. He says : Sometimes, however, the trade does not go on so smoothly. When the stock of pemmican and robes is small the Indians object to seeing their pile go for a little parcel of tea and sugar. The weighing-balance and steel yard are their especial objects of dislike. Failing to comprehend the nature of those machines, or how a small quantity of one article may equal a large quantity of another, they propound* conundrums like thiR: “ For why you put on one side tea or mtgnr, and on the other a lit tle bit of iron? We don’t know what medicine that is ; but, look here, put on one side of that thing that swings a bag of pemmican, and put on the other side blankets and tea and sugar, and then, when the two sides stop swinging, you take the pemmican and we will take the blankets and the tea ; that will be fair, for one side will be as big as the other. ” This very luminous idea elicits uni versal satisfaction all around. Every Indian of them all grunts his unquali fied approval, until the trader quietly observes: “Well, let it be as you say. We will make the balance swing level between the bag of pemmican and the blankets, but we will carry out the idea still further. You will put your beaver and marten skins on one side, I will put against them on the other my blankets, and my gun and ball and powder ; then, when both sides are level, you will take the ball and powder and blankets, and I will take the marten and the rest of the fine furs !” This unique proposition sud denly illumines the mind of the ingen uous Indian on the question of weighing- balances and steelyards, and after some deliberation it is firmly resolved to abide by the old plan of letting the white trader decide the weight himself in his own way ; for it is clear that the steel yard is a very great medicine which no brave can understand, and which can only be manipulated by a white medi cine-man. Investigations on Butter. Good, fresh butter possesses the well known agreeable taste and a slight smell of milk, while rancid butter smells very disagreeably. The latter may bo con verted into an eatable food by treatment with water, in which case the soluble rancid parts are removed. The taste and color of the butter depend upon the class of animals and the fodder used. Its color is often adulterated by means of small quantities of beet roots or other plants possessing coloring power. The coloring matter may be detected by treating the butter with strong alcohol. Butter fat is a complex substance, con taining varying proportions of eight different acids. Pure butter dissolves readily in ether, forming a clear lemon yellow liquid, while hog’s lard, beef fat, mutton fat and tallow form turbid, milky solutions. The fat of pure butter, when saponified with soda lye, yields a soap less hard and firm than that pro duced by adulterated butter. Attractive Homes. There is use in beauty, says the Rural Messenger. It makes home attractive, its exterior more respectable, our lives happier, our dispositions sweeter, and our social and domestic intercourse more ! refined. By all means plant some little thing of grace to temper the rugged surroundings of the front yard. Its silent, though eloquent language, will speak to the visitor or the passer-by a word of eulogy for you. The least flower or shrub will be some attraction ; ’ a curved path winding between trees to the house, a mound of stoues and shell I with the ivy trailing over them, the flowering shrubs or the turf of fein—all such things are attractive and fovm a pleasing object for the eye of even the most indifferent beholder. How Woman Love* and Suffers, 'As a reporter waa walking through one of the streets on the South side, he saw a woman sitting on a horse-block in front of a saloon, weeping bitterly. The reporter stopped and asked her if he could aid her in any way, for she was a neat, tidy little woman, with a pleasing and honest face. After several ques tions the story came out. Her husband, who is a workman, had been paid some money that morning, and had gone to this saloon and was carousing inside with some of his companions. Her little girl was sick at home, and several things were needed for her, which the father had promised to buy, but she was serely afraid that the money would all be gone before morning. As the woman told her sad story, with an air of patient resignation, her hands lay folded in her lap, and on the upper one was a long ugly scratch. “Does your husband ever ill-treat you ?” asked the reporter. She drew the wounded hand quickly under her shawl, and answered prompt ly, “ Oh, no, sir ; he is a goed man, only when he’s drinking he is sometimes a little quick with the children.” “ Why don’t you ask some of your friends to aid you in trying to stop his drinking, or else get a magistrate to interfere ?” She sprang up from the stone, and drawing herself up, said in a trembling, indignant voice : “ He is my husband, sir ; do you think I wonld go to a mag istrate abont my hnsband, sir! my Harry ? Oh, no, sir. I never could do that, n« matter what he did.”—Wheel ing (\V. Va.) Register. An English on American Farmer Farmers. Mr. Mechi, the eminent English farm er, lately read a paper at the Central Farmers’ Club, London, in which the following passage occurs: “I have had very extensive communications personal ly and by letter with American agri culturists, and have had also many volumes sent to me year by year of the transactions ’ of the New York State Agricultural Society, and the impres sion on my mind is that there is a great deal of intelligence, enterprise and progress in American agriculture. As the farmers nearly all occupy their ow land, their mental energy and financial means are quite unshackled, and they are free to enlarge or improve. The mere knowledge that their improvements are their own property, and will be in herited by their widows or children, acts as an extraordinary stimulus to their ex ertions and progress. The fact that no gamekeeper or stranger dare put a foot on their land, and that the game is their own, adds heavily in the scale of advan tageous considerations and independent feelings. Imagine the feelings of a man who can say at any day or hour: ‘I will sell my farm and buy another, or add to my farm or do in any other way just what I like with my own,’ and com pare them with those of a British farm er, who, like that model of a good farm er, the late Mr. Hope of Fenton Barns, was ousted from the beloved place of his birth by a mere after-dinner speech expressing opinions opposed to those of his landlord. ” SUMMARY OF NEWS.

The President has received a long communi cation from Governor Hubbard, of Texas, giv ing a history of the Mexican troubles on the I border for the last twenty years. The Gov ernor asserts that United States custom house officers and citizens have been murdered and 1 tortured by Mexicans, and millions of dollars’ worth of property has been taken from Texan owners ; that Mexico has furnished an asylum ■ for robbers and their stolen goods ; that she _ T, _ _ haw been notified many times of the acts of Yankee Brown Bread,—Two (juArCPj {Jostility committed Ey^lIfciSiSHizen 8 , but ban Manufacturing Cold Air, Prof. Gamgoe is exhibiting in Califor nia a machine for making cold air, by means of which he hopes to be able to reduce the heat of mines; to* keep the holds of vessels at a freezing tempera ture while conveying fresh meat; to maintain a floor of ice in a skating rink during the hottest weather, and to per form many similar wonders. An ammo nia machine lost summer did such work for a brewery in New Jersey. None of these devices use ice in the process of cooling air. In a recent work by Mr. Robert Briggs, on the “Relation of Moisture in Air to Health and Comfort,” he shows by a mathematical calculation that the quantity of ice needed to cool an apartment in a hot summer’s day to the temperature of spring, might be thirty times the quantity of coal needed to heat the apartment on a cold winter’s day; even under the most favorable con ditions, when the air is so dry that no moisture wonld have to be removed, the proportion of ice to coal would have to be fifteen to one. Cooling by means of compressedjair, suddenly allowed to ex pand, would, Mr. Briggs thinks, be far less expensive than the use of ice; but still too costly for ventilating purposes to serve practically in making onr houses cool in the summer. How a Match was Broken Off. The Jersey City (N. J.) Journal says: A comical affair occurred in Newark re cently which promised to have a serious result. Mr. Heisfelder, who is, or was engage l to marry Miss Schellbrcsner, both Germans, was escorting the joung lady, who was to act as bridesmaid on the occasion, to a wedding. They were late, and took a short cut to the church along the canal towpath. On the way they had a lovers’ quarrel, and the damsel says Heisfelder insulted* her. She sheered off from his side, but sheered too far, and tumbled head over heels into the canal. The young man went immediate ly after her, and with much difficulty hauled her 185 pounds of avoirdupois and her wet bridesmaid’s clothes to dry land. But her wrath was not cooled though her body was, and she went home alone, and now says she will not marry Emil at all. This may be en titled a comedy of errors on the tow- path. How She Utilized Him. “Your husband is sick a good deal of late, isn’t he?” remarked a southern Il linois woman to another, one day this week. “ Yes,” answered the wife, “he’s got tuk down mighty hard with them ’ere ager shakes agin.” “I shud think it’ud be sorter dis- tressin’ like to have him ’round the house,” remarked the other sympathiz- ingly, “spec’ly when yer house-clean- .n’.” 1 “ Wal, so it wud be,” replied the wife in self-consoling tones, “ but when he’s got inter one of his chills, and I want the rag carpet slink, yer see he’s a pow erful smart hand to hitch onto it. ” Then the other woman wended her way home, envying her neighbor the knack she had of utilizing her husband.

John Btuhler, an Illinois State Senator, was fatally stabbed by a Bohemian named Maurice Mono. Senator Bnehler held a mort gage on Marso’s house and lot and sold it to & third party, who forclosed it, and this so enraged the Bohemian that he made an attack on his victim, with the result described. Governor Bishop, of Ohio, was inaugurated at Columbus. From Washington. The President has pardoned Edward A.

Y.) penitentiary, and Samuel P. Steele, convicted of embezzling in a post office and sentenced to twelve months’ imprisonment in the jail at Jackson, Miss. A Washington dispatch says there is a pro ject on foot to take Posmaster-general Key as the anti-repndiation and administration candi date for Governor of Tennessee next fall. The annnal meeting of the female suffrage convention took place in the capitol. Dr. Lozier, the president, read her annnal address, and other speeches were made by prominent woman suffragists. At a cabinet meeting it was resolved that the secretary of the treasury should invite further subscription to the new four per oent. loan, and that every facility be afforded to subscribe to the bonds. The commissioner of agriculture, in his annnal report, states that the entire wheat crop of this year promises to exceed that of the previous year by 70,000,000 bushels. A letter has been written by Senator Ed munds, of Vermont, to the President on the proper relations which should exist between the executive and legislative departments of the government in regard to appointments. The woman suffragists, in convention at Washington, bad personal interviews with a number of Senators, and Vice-President Wheeler, and pushed their claims to recognition. The Senate committee on privileges and elections listened to the arguments of a num ber of delegates from the National Woman’s Suffrage convention, holding a session in Washington, in favor of giving the ballot to women. A complete revision of the tariff and internal revenue laws will be made by the House com mittee of ways and means.

Baker Pasha (Valentine Baker, formerly a colonel in the British army) has been promoted to the rank of lieutenant-general in the Tur kish army. A dispatch received from Commodore Rod gers, of the United States steam-hip Adams, at Sandy Point, Straits of Magellen, November 17, states that the garrison there on November 11 mutinied, murdered and mutilated their cap tain, and opened fire on the Governor’s house. The Governor, severely injured, escaped with his family in a destitute condition to the woods. The mutineers then released and armed the convicts of the place and committed acts of outrage, robbery and murder on the people. Citizens fled to the mountains. On the arrival of the Adams order was restored. When last heard of the mutineers were on their way to Vera Crnz. Francis Vincent Raspail, tho well-known French chemist and politician died in Paris, aged eighty-three. Victor Emmanuel, king of Italy, died at Rome on the ninth, aged fifty-eight years. At his bedside when he died were his wife, Prince Humbert, tho heir apparent, and others. The news of his death caused great emotion among the people. The newspapers appeared in blaek. After the monarch’s death Prince Humbert was proclaimed king of Italy, and issued a procla mation to tho people. He also confirmed his father’s ministersJn their posts. A special dispatch to the London Times from Berlin says: Russia having consented to enter into negotiations for an armistice, even if the preliminaries ef peace are not settled before hand, the conclusion of a truce is probable. A fire broke out in Honolulu and destroyed a portion of the city before it was subdued. Government warehouses, wharves and sheds, private and public buildings were destroyed, and the damage done was estimated at $250,- 000. Sympathetic dispatches from all the sover eigns of Europe have been sent to King Hum bert of Italy condoling with him on account of the death of his father, Victor EmmanueL A St. Petersburg!! dispatch says: Grand Duke Nicholas has telegraphed the following to the Emperor from Lovtcha : “ I am happy to congratulate your Majesty upon a brilliant victory gained this day. General Radetzky has, after desperate fighting, captured the whole Turkish army defending the Shipka Pass, consisting of forty-one battalions, ten batteries, and one regiment of cavalry. Prince Mirsky has occupied Kezanlik. General Sco- belcff holds Shipka.” Suleiman Pasha has been relieved of nis command and ordered to Constantinople. The Russians captured 23,000 men, 1,000 horses, twelve mortars, twelve siege guns and eighty field guns at Shipka Pass. The Grand Duke Nicholas bas declared that Russia will not grant an armistice until peace conditions are submitted by Turkey, while Lord Derby accuses Russia of bad faith, in not opening negotiations for an armistice. A Constantinople dispatch states that the German and Italian ministers have notified the Porte that if it permits the English fleet to come to Constantinople Germany and Italy will also demand permission for their fleets to pass through the Dardanelles. The Turkish minister of foreign affairs and Namyk Pasha have been oppointed to nego tiate with the Grand Dnke Nicholas for peace. w~ Real Estate. When William the Conqueror had finished parceling out the principalities of England among nis Norman lieges, the Doomsday Book enumerated 45,706 owners of real estate outside of London. Eight centuries have reduced that nujfh- ber of landowners to 30,776, and ,land hanger,asthe Germans call it,is steadily diminishing that small number. La this country, in addition to the landowners of the thirteen original States, 1,100,- 000 pieces of real estate have been carved out of the wild lands east of the Mississippi ; and west of the Father of Rivers at least 600,000 more. It is safe to say, therefore, that there are to-day not less than 2.000,000 owners of real estate in the United States, .is against the 30,000 of England ; ai.d we add more than 50,000 to that number every year. The great majority of these cul tivate their own lands and dwell beneath their own roofs. Every man of them has an interest in the stability of that government that gives them certainty of tenure.—Appleton's Journal.

Proctor, the English astron omical writer, it appears that the result of the observations of the British tran sit expeditions has been to fix the sun’s distance from the earth at 93,321,000 miles. This exceeds by nearly a million of miles Newcomb’s estimate, generally accepted of late years, and by more than a million of miles Leverrier’s conclusion drawn from the planetary perturbations. The authors of the new estimate, it seems, admit a probable error of 200,- 000 miles, while the British transit ob servations in southern localities are yet to be combined with those made by America, Russia and Germany at north ern stations. It is too early yet, there fore, to lay it down in school books and to teach children what the exact dis tance of the sun is. CONGUESBIONAI. BUMIHAKY. Henate. After the long recess the Senate opened with about forty senators in their seats. Many bills were introduced and referred to the appropriate committees. Mr. Conkling submitted a reso lution instructing the committee on the judi ciary to inquire and report in regard to the action taken by any department or officer of the government in restoring Major B. P. Rankle to the army of the United States, which was agreed to. He also submitted a resolution in structing the committee on naval affairs to in quire and report in regard to the restoration of Dr. L. J. Draper to Die medical corps of the navy, which was debated at some length and agreed to. Mr. Edmunds submitted a joint resolution preposing an amendment to the constitution of the United States, prohibiting the States from making appropriations for sec tarian purposes. It was referred to the com- mitte on the judiciary. Then the Senate re sumed the consideration of the resolution of Mr. Matthews, submitted before the recess, declaring the right of the government to pay the principal and interest of the bonds in sil ver coin. Mr. Beck, of Kentucky, spoke in favor of tho remonetization of the silver dol lar. The Senate refused to grant a hearing to the representatives of tho women’s convention in Washington, by a vote of 31 to 13. Ad journed. A number of petitions were presented for and against the remonetization of silver ; Mr. Hill, of Georgia, presented resolutions of the Savannah cotton exchange denying that the South is nnanimously in favor of tho restora tion of the silver dollar Amendments to Mr. Matthews’ resolution declaring the right of government to pay the bonds with silver was offered by Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont. The amendment dec’ares that payment of the bonds in anything but gold would be a breach of pub lic faith. The Matthews resolution was then taken up and discussed until the close of the session. House. There were 205 members present at roll call upon the opening of the session after the re cess. The greater part of the session was devoted to debate in committee of the whole on the resolution of Mr. Wood to authorize the committees of the House to investigate the ad ministration of all the departments of the government, with power to send for persons and papers. An amendment was adopted, directing the committees to apply for such powers when necessary. An amendment to investigate the matter" in which the $700,000 or $800,000 expended by the Forty-fourth Con gress had been spent, was adopted. A substi tute for Mr Wood’s resolution, offered by Mr. Hale, requiring that the charges on which any proposed investigation shall be made, shall be presented in writing to the House, accompanied by a statement in writing signed by one or niore members, that the charges are sustained by such evidence as to make the investigation necessary, was adopted. The committee then rose, and Mr. Hale endeavored to secure action in the House, but a motion to adjourn, offered by Mr. Wood, was adopted. "Mr. Sapp, of Iowa, introduced a bill author izing the secretary of the treasury to issue coupons of the denominations of $15, $25, $50 and $100 for the investment of savings .... The resolution of Mr. Wood, of New York, authorizing unlimited investigation into the affairs of government by the several committees was carried by a vote of 111 to 107. after which the House went into committee of the whole for consideration of private business.

Says Comely in his recently issued work, The History of -New York State, “ The day has passed when the benefactors of humanity w ere allowed to live in ignominious poverty—their sacrifices, their labors, unrecompensed. To day, the benefactors of the people—tho men who devote their lives and energies to the interests of humanity—these aie the men whom the world delights to honor, and whom it rewards with princely fortnnes. As an earnest worker for the welfare of his fellow men, Dr. R. V. Pierce has won their warmest sympa! hy and esteem. While seeking to be their servant only, he has become a prince among them. Yet the' immense fortune lavished upon h m hy a generous people he hoards not, but invests in the erection and establishment of institutions directly conti ibutive to the public g' od, the people thus realizing, in their liberal patron age, a new meaning of that beautiful Oriental custom of casting bread upon tl^) wat rs. Noted in both public and private life for his unswerving integrity and a l thosa sterling virtues that ennoble manhood, Dr. Pierce ranks high among those few men, whose names the Empire State is justly proud to inscribe upon her roll of honor. Ambition'*, yet moved by an ambition strictly a i enable to the most d s- criminating and well-bala ccd judgment, hif future cireer promises 11 bo one of unparallel ed activity and usefulness, ably supplementing the work he has already accomplislicd, hy a life at once noble in effort, enviable in it* grand results.” While Dr. Pierci’s genius mden- rgy have won for him so enviable a posit.on on the records of a nation, having been • lectod Senator by an overwhelm!.>g majority, Lis justly celebrated household remedies have gained for him a yet more deairab e place in the hearts of a grateful people. His Golden Medical Discovery and Favorite Prescription have brought health and happiness to ton thousand households. Dinease Grows Apace, Like an ill wind, and cannot be mastered too early. What is a trifling attack of sickness to-day, may, if unattended to, become a seri ous case in a week. Small ailments should be nipped in the bud before they blossom into full blown maladies. If this advice were at tended to, many a heavy bill for medical at tendance might be avoided. When the liver is disordered, the stomach foul, the bowels obstructed, or the nerves disturbed, resort should at once be had to that supreme remedy, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a few doses of which will restore healthy action and put the system in perfect order. It is a wise precau tion to keep this incomparable preventive in the house, since it checks, with unrivalled promptitude, disorders which breed others far more dangerous, and in their latest develop ments are themselves often fatal. Women dispute about other matters, but all agree on the merits of Dooley’s Yeast Powder as par excellence the best of all. Grocers throughout tho conn'ry keep it, and find it f ives supreme satisfaction. By using it the ousewife is sure of delicious bread, rusk, rolls, biscuit, buckwheat cakes and all the deli cacies made from flour. CHEW The Celebrated “ Matchless” Wood Tag Plug Tobacco.
