after having sealed them al every joint, de-
livered, on the lat cf January, 1893, to

direction not to open them until the expira-
ton of fifty years, have been brought out
of the cellars of the university, and deposit

As the time expires on the first of Janua-
ry, 1899, the Senate has sent an address to
the Crown Prince, as protector of the uni
versities, requesting him to attend the
opening of the chests on New Years day.
The Prince has accepted the invitation.
The two mysterious chests are of different
sizes, and secured by numerous iron bands;
the largest Is SO heavy tina. four horses

A POLITICAL SCENE IN THE POLICE
CoURT.-If man had time, he could not
find in the broad world, so queer school of
poor humanity, as is daily taught in the
City Police Court in the Halls Of Justice.
Police Courts in Europe have their droler-
ies, but there is something sui generis, the
peculiarity of our institutions.
We happened to be in the Egyptian Hall
the other day, when an Irishwoman was n,
who had been complaining of her spouse for
beating her with cowhde; and her neck
and shoulders upon examination were most
savagely nutilated--scarred all over in
deed with the bloody stripes, inflicted by
her brutal husband, so that she seemed even
then to be IN an agony of pain, An officer
was sent for this monster ofa husband, and
the brute was brought in. Ae he caught
the eye of bis wife, be gave her a savage
look; as much as to say, if you havesdoue
this, I'll beat you to death when ] get hold
Of you again. Whereupon she was with
drawing her complaint; and---s Ia mel' says
she, "it was all my fault, your honor," The
Maumee City express. [volume] (Maumee City, Ohio) 1838-184?, 1839-05-11

Justice (Merritt,) however, did not choose
to surrender such a husband, now under
the grasp of the law, and he ordered him
to find bail for his good behaviour to the
amount of 5000, He (the prisonor) then
asked one of the officers Of the Court to be
his bail, who replied the Justice would not
take an officer. "Then Alderman Brady"
says he, " will be my BALL" and he boo-hoo-
God piteously enough as his eyes was direc-
ted to the door leading to the cell. His
tears, however, soon dried up, and he burst
forth in a rage, with his eye upon the Jus,
ticc. "You'll repent; you will-of this,
says he, "the next Election. I'll put you
off the way ofputting Democrat in prison.
And he shook his fist in tempest Of rage
as the officer dragged nim to cell, and as
he roared ont again, "TH put you off tht
,Oay Of putting n Democrat into aprison.
The effect of the late Charter Election
already begins thus to be evident in all parts
of the City. The moral power of Whig
City government now no longer restrains
sub men as we describe above. The vic.
tory has been triumph indeed, for the mer
who claim 1.-THE Indomtables, the Butt
Finders, and the Point-E -Enders. We give
Mr.. Varan much joy over his prosperity

TRAVELLING AS 1T wAs.-The following
brief account of journey from New York
to New Orleans, made in 1900, will be read
with interest: rus
"April Sd, 1900, left New York in fer
ry-boat for Jerseycity. Took two-horse
coach and got to Philadelphia the 4th day
at O'Clock P. M. Left Philadelphia next
morning in a one-horse shay, with the mail
bag behind, for Lancaster, where we arri-
wed the Sd day. At Lancaster, bought a
horse, and after nine days journey through
the forest reached Pittsbug. Here, with
some Others, I bought, for eighteen dollars,
a fiat boat, in which we took our departure
for New Orleans, floating with the current.
After divers adventures and escapes from
great peril, by land and water, we reached
Natchez in fifty seven days after leaving
Plttsburg, and New Orleans city in thirteen
days thereafter, having been from New
York on the journey eighty-four days,
which our friend in New Orleans did saw
was an expeditions voyage. My own per-
sonal cost on the way in sum total Ell lis

these worse than arbarous--fendish they
might be called--instrument of human
slaughter, for sale in Tennessee. 1t is high.
misdemeanor for importing, manufacturing,
selling or wearing; felony for drawing,
and crime of the first grade for using u

the moral irmness of her legislature, and
the law abiding temper of the body oc her
citizens, is clear of this reproach.-N Y.

The Sandusky Democrat pays the mer-
chants Of Maumee City a high and well
merited compliment. on the manner in
which they support our paper. We have
not failed to express our feelings Of ebliga-
tion to those who have SO literally given us
their custom, and we have been happy to
feel that while we have been aboring to
render the paper respectable IN the editori-
al and mechanical departments, our mer-
chants have been determined, so far as in
them lay, to render it a true epitome of the
trade and business of the place.

IMPROVED MAIL BAes.-The Boston Post
describes an ingenious, and apparently
highly useful invention for letter mail bags
Of a material impervious to water, and all
tight; so that in any accident by flood the
bag will neither sink nor admit water, how
ever long exposed to it. The fabric is said
to be nearly as durable as leather, and the
bag is fastened by simple and ingenious
clasp lock, adapted to the keys now in use.

An ingenious attorney, who always made
it point to get his case, was applied 10 by
a fellow who had stolen some pork to de-

way, he ruined the evidence on which the

dict of not guilty. After the verdict was de

II is now well understood that Engllsf
capitalists are about to esta abish bank ir
this city. One of the Messrs. Joseph's
who failed in 1886, is spoken of as the
agent, and from his popular manners, and
well known integrity, more judicioui
choice could not be made. This is steE
which we are surprised has not been taker
before, as the rate of interest in England il
only five per cent, while in Banking opera

BUSINESS AND CHANGES IN New YoRK. -
Tie N. Y. Express, under its money mar
ket head, says
Pearl, William, Pine, and other leading
business streets, present their former ap-
pearance of hustle and activity. The side
walks are SO piled up with bales, boxes and
casks, that it is difficult to get along. 1t is
near two and half years since we have
had a good fall or spring trade. There is
now every appearance that this, although a
late, will be fair spring season. The coun-
try merchants who are here now, are, a
large portion of them, new faces. They
come with new capital and new credit
They represent different resources. They
also come among a new set ofbusiness men.
The last two years has given New York a
severe sitting. There is more change,
more new firms, and more recognising Of
old firms, than was ever known in the same
period.
