ly maintained the necessity of persons
cultivating n neat, legible handwriting
from the fact that it was useful in busi-
ness, and pleasing in private cores
pondence. There are many persons IN
the professions who are OF the opinion
that scrawling penmanship Is an 1ndi-
cation of genius, and that the less COM
prehenSibleH are the letters the more pro-
found is the writer. Many young gen.
tlemen of the law do not attempt to
defend their wretched scribbling; they
rather allude to 1t as a guarantee Of
their future greatness, and proudly re-
fer to the letters of the late MI. Choate.
1t is fair to presume that the hero
glyphics of DIR. Chapman have caused
many medical student to initiate his
style, and it is to this foolish habit of
aping greatness by the adoption of
practices which are ludicrous and an
noying even TO eminent men, that busi-
ness is very often deranged and not un-
frequently lives are lost t-i.lt,.v .
The washington lournalS 1oOme TO us
with a melancholy ihustration OF the
evils of careless penmanship, in the
case,of Miss Lilly Hollingsworth, who
having been ill, was attended by a
physician. This gentleman prescribed
for the invalid, who died in a few hours,
from the effect of the medicine, which
it seems was extract of opium. The
doctor said before the Coroner's Jury
that he intended she should have taken
| elixir of opium, and maintained that
the accident was caused by the negli-
gence of the druggist That individual,
however. showed that the prescription
read "Ert.." which he Interpreted to
mean extract, and the physician reioin-
ed that he had Intended to give the pa
tient elixir of opium, which is harmless,
whilst the extract is dangerous.
1t will be observed that n little more
care in writing. and some attention to
the formation of letters, would in this
case have proved most beneficial to all

THE PEASA

The PEAsANT-NoBLEAIANo OF RUSSIA.
Concerning the Russian peasant who

.'But among that crowd OF unknown
celebrities therewas one pointed out to
me of whom most of the world has

who is standing m n corner, is the ia
nous Komissarol-the Ran who
saved the life OF the Gar. A few months
ago he was n mere peasant. Now he is
nobleman and wears a brilliant uni
form, and has lots of orders in his
breast. Last season he was the hero OF
the day; he was embraced in public by
any number of grand dukes and duch-
esses; his portraits were in every shop
window; his brother mobiles were about

scription. A deputation sent from the
great transatlantic Republic, on pur-
pose to congratulate the Czar, insisted
on being presented to the savior of a
life SO dear to America and all the Rus
sins. But now his lion-head, if NAV
coin the word, is lost. The subscrip-
ton has never come to anything; the
fluctuations of the American delegates,
however gratifying; did not take a sub
stantial form; and L am told that on his
last public appearance, when he stood
in tent on the Newskf, on the occasion

parlance, had ceased to draw" Al
ready candid friends are beginning to
declare that he only showed the assas-

away the moment he heard the pistol
go of; but 1 distrust these stories, as
human nature all the world over de-
lights in proving that a dead lion never
deserved to wear the lions skin at ali.
