ALoNDoN letterto the Boston Adver-
tiser says that Queen Victoria is very
unpopular. with the upper classes of her
people: slanderous stories are freely
circulated that she is too fond of a
Highland attendant named Brown, and
she is nick knamed Mrs. Brown. Punch
has even gone SO far as toinsert a mock
courtcircular, dated Balmoral, in which
the movements of Mr.. John Brown are
chronicled. The only foundation for
these attacks are the fact that the Queen
has favorite servant, and prefers his
services to those of others.

How MUCH TALKING wR Do.-Some
Frenchman of a statistical turn ofmind,
who evidently has but little to do, pub
fishes in Havre paper some curious
statistics oftheaverage talk OF men and
women. He has discovered that an
ordinary middle aged man spends three
hours per day in conversation, calctI-
lated at the rate Of one hundred words
per minute, or twenty-nine octave paE-
es per hour, which would amount to
600 pages per week, or fifty-two big vol
umes per year. Having ascertained
these facts as regards the masculine
portion of the human race, the statis-
tician applied his best energies to as
certain the amount of words uttered by
an ordinary and middle-aged female
per minute, and the amount of time
spent on the aversge by that sex in gem
eral conversation. After the most pa
tient investigation and abstruse calcu4
lation, this able arithmetician was COM
PEELED TO give up thequestion, and con-
fess the magnitude OF the figures pro-
duced even at the outset of the inquiry
bafhed all human calculation,

Corn AND PEAcH.-Within the
limits of the forty-six Counties COM
posing this, the fourth revenue col
lector's district, says the Atlanta
Iqtelligence7', there are over 300 dis
tilleries. No wonder ''corn" and
''peach" are abundant. But for the
tax imposed upon these articles, they
would be "cheap as dirt" and, as
friend at our elbow suggests, not any
better
1t is not labor that kills men; it is
worry. Work is healthy; you can
hardly put more upon man than he
can bear. Worry is rust upon the
blade. It is not the revolution that
destroys the machinery, but the fric-
ton Fear secretes acid; but love
and trust are sweet juices.
Labor is said to be worth in Mexico
from eight dollars to fifteen dollars a
day. Out of week the contractor
can hope to get three days of good
work. Flow is worth forty-fve dol
lars barre. ana meal fifteen dollars.
Living is generally very cheap.

All's Well.


Sweet voice hope, thy fine discourse,
Foretold not half life's good to me,
Thy painter, fancy, hath not force
10 show how sweet it is to be
Thy witching dream,

To match the fact still wants the power
Thy promise brave,
From birth to grave,

"Ask and receive" It's sweetly said;
Yet what to ask for, know not;
For wish is worsted. hope outsped,
And aye to thanks returns my thought.
II would pray,
But this, that God may be GOD still;
To him to live
Is still to give,
And sweeter than my wish His will.

And xlore than heart-ful1 fills me aye.
My wealth il common possess
No petty province, but the whole;

In every beam that fills the day;
All hearts of men my Golfers are,

And speaking looks

CoTToN- STEALING IN New YoRK.-It
would seen, from the following ex-
tract, taken from the New York Price
Current and Commercial List, that
there are cotton thieves elsewhere
than in the South. Who would have
thought it ?
We understand that the New Or
leans shippers hesitate about sending
cotton to this market, owing to the
high charges current here for carriage,
storage and insurance, and owing to
the loss resulting from theft. In seve-
raj instances, within our knowledge,
captains of vessels which have beer,
sent out to New Orleans to load for
New York, have telegraphed for per-
mission to load for Liverpool direct,
shippers refusing to send their cotton
here for reasons enumerated above.
It is to be hoped that this important
trade will not be driven from our
city by any such causes, and we trust
that steps will ere long be taken to
render the expenses of handling, ETC.,
less onerous. AS to the matter of
piye''i'ag, it is done with impunity. 1t
is no uncommon thing to see a half
dozen women congregated in the vi
cinity of lot of cotton which is
being handledby laborers, who per-
NIT them to fill their aprons and stuff
their clothes full without remon-
STRANGE. In this way good deal of
cotton may be extracted from bale,
especially if it is loosely put up, or
the bagging becomes worn out.
