ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.-The n.
Y. Evening Post intimates that
the knowing ones connected with
the Submarine Telegraph enter
prise are conscious that it must end
in failure, and that the present In
tention of renewing the attempt
to lay the cable, is merely a blind,
to help the sale of the stock in an
undertaking already aborted. It
is said that before the cable part
ed, last year, the directors Of the
work had discovered that there
had ceased to be any electric COM
munication through the cable to
the land station, and that they per-
mitted it to break in order that
this fact might not become public.
Furthermore the circumstance that
no circuit over six hundred miles
in extent is successfully worked on
land, is regarded as an evidence
that the Atlantic Telegraph must
necessarily prove a failure. We
hope that these surmises may prove
incorrect.

a Battle between an Eagle
and "a Serpent.

In the month of August, 1884,

board the fine steamer Waucousta,
when, as we approached a noted
spot on the river, called the ''Rob.
bers Cave" my attention was at
tracted by several loud screams

seemed to originate, and | saw an
eagle describing circles in the air
IN a most beautiful and graceful
manner. As it wheeled around In
its gyrations with mathematical.
precision, with outstrected but mo
tionless wings, it ever and anon ut
tered the peculiar screams which
first drew my attention. While
was gazing in admiration at its Ell
CANT curves, it suddenly changed
its motion, and descended with al
most inconceivable velocity in 6
perpendicular line to the earth
It went down, as one of the pass
engers described it, like dart.
Before we could express our aston
ishment, or give any opinion COB
corning its objects, it again rose
and assembled to great height
with a rapidity almost equal to it

SMALL Pox PATIENTS IN PRUs-
sn.-A curious law suit is going
on just now in Berlin. A rich
banker of that city, who is i'll of
the small pox, has had two actions
brought against him, one by his
barber, and one by his upholster-
er, who claim damages because he
communicated the malady to them.
They demand compensation for the
doctors expenses and the time
they have lost. According to the
Prussian law, the banker should
have put up outside his door a no
tice with the words:-"There is a
person here Ill of the small pox."

An Arkansas Fathers Adj
vice to his Son.

Bob, you're about leaving home
for strange parts. You're a goin'
to throw me out of the game and
60 it alone. The odds is agin you,
Bob; but remember, alters, that In
dustry and perseverance are the
winning cards; they are the bow
ers.' Book-learning, and all that
sort of thing, viii do to fill up,
like small trumps, but you must
have the bowers to back 'em, else
they amt worth shucks. IF luck
runs again you pretty strong, don't
cave in and look like sick chick
en- on rainy day; but hold your
head up, and make believe you're
flush Of trumps; they won't play
so hard agin you. I've lived and
travelled around considerable, Bob
and I've found out that as soon as
folks thought you held a weak
hand, they'd all buck again you
strong. So, when you are sorter
weak, keep on a bold front; but
play cautious; be satisfied with a
pint. Many's the time I've been
euchred cause they play for too
much. Keep your eyes well skin
ned, Bob; don't let 'em mig on
you; recollect that the game lays
as much with the head as with the
hands. Be temperate, never get
drunk; for then, no difference how
good your hand, you won't know
how to play it; both bowers and
the ace wont save You, for there's
sartin to be a miss-deal OF some
thing of that sort. And another
thing, Bob, this was spoken in 6
low tone, don't 90 too much OF
the women; Queens is kinder poor
cards; the more you have Of 'em
the worse for you. You might
have three and nary trump.
don't say discard 'em all; if yor
get hold of one that's trump, it,
all good; and there's sartin to be
one out of four. And above all
Bob, be honest; never take a mans
trick wot don't belong to you; mol
slip cards, nor mig for then you
can't look your man in the face
and when that's the case, there's
no fun In the game; it's reg'lerS cut
throat So now, Bob; farewell
remember what / tell you, ant
you'll be sure to win; and if you
don't it sarves you right if you ge-

commerce is King---Purse
SsrOnger than the Sceutre

Ssronser than the Sceptre.
HENRY WARD BEEcHER. in his
nervous style thus shows how much
more powerful a commercial panic
now affects the world tnan a war
does: ~ts0
"a bank explodes in Ohio: then
a line of banks give away in Penn
sylvania. 1t shook the CONT
nent more than all the canonade of
Sevastopol. Next, the banks of
New York suspended. All bust
ness stopped. Society was tremu-
lous from top to bottom. The IT,
dIngs are borne across the ocean.
That wonderful Island, whose top
Is narrow, but whose base is broad
as the whole earth, began to quiv-
er, and that silent panic brought
her down quick as an axe brings
the OK! Var could not make her
plumes culver; but commerce, by
a look cast upon the ground. And
it stands apparent to the world,
by the greatest demonstration that
Commerce has supplanted War,
and is its master. The Generals
sword, the Marshal's trucheon, the
Kings crown, are not the strong
est things. The worlds strength
les In the million hands of produ-
GERS and exchanges. Power has
shifted. No matter who reigns-
Merchant rules. No matter what
the form of government is, the
power of the world is in the hands
of the people. The kings hand is
weaker than the Bankers. War
cannot convulse the world-but
Capital can.
There are undoubted evidences
Of the advance of world in true
civilization. Within the last ten
years the most extraordinary wars
and civil revolutions ever taken
place on the globe. Once such a
combination and movement as we
have but lately beheld, would have
affected the whole globe with ter
ror. Since the French Emperor
put his bloody foot upon the
throne. there have been set on foot
the most wide spread combina-
tons of governments, the most
prodigious armies and navies, such
as turn the historic Armada into a
mere affair of yachts. Once the
globe would have trembled to the
footsteps of such an unparalleled
war! So much did the spirit of
the past dwell in military things,
that a hundred or two hundred
years ago such a thing would have
drawn with it the worlds nerve,
and blood and vitality. But now
all Western Europe rose up, and
the world did not tremble. All
Russia gathered together, and the
Orient did not feel it. And the
pounding of war in that gigantic
conflict disturbed the world as lit
tie as a thrasher's fail upon the
barn-foor disturbed the firm earth
beneath it. Not even the nations
that carried such battle in their
hands thought it heavy. Great
Britain took but her left hand
Nota wheel stopped in her manu-
factories. Not an acre the less
was titled in France; and the world
upon this side read the account
simply as neacs' 1t produced no
more effect than the last serial sto-
ry that drags its long and tedious
tail through cheap and studied

a GENTLEMAN

Who, two years ago, lay upon what his physicians
aud all his friends believed TO be his death bed, is
now alive and in the full vigor of health His dis
ease was Consumption, of which nearly a II his rea
tives had died. The circumstances which led to
his recovery were as follows: His younger brother
in the habit of reading to him from books
about the house to while away his weary hours
One day he read to him from an old book published
in London about the middle of the seventeenth
century, OF what was styled GA sympel and certain
remmeedee for diseases of We Lungs" Not wholly
without hope, and unwilling TO leave anything un-
tried which gave promise of relief, the sick and
dying man had the prescribed remedies prepared
and commencedits use. The result was favorable.
In two months he was able to walk about the prem
ises without difficulty, and in seven months from
the time that he commenced its use he was en-
tirely well, and has not been confined day since.
Grateful towards an all-wise providence for his
restoration, he prescribed it for all in his vicinity
who were afflicted with diseases of the lungs and
general debility, and in every it has proved
effective.
Thoroughly satisfied that it is the only safe and
certain cure for Consumption, and wishing to do
his fellow beings who are suffering, as much good
as possible, he has concluded to send the recipe,
with full instructions for putting up and using the
me iicine, free to all who may order it. In or
der to delray the expenses of advertising letter
writing postage &C., he requires each applicant for
the Recipe to enclose 10 cents and direct M. T..

sent by seturn of mail. jan7-1lly.
