HUMBoLDT.-On the 14th of Sep
tcmbcr century will have elapsed since
the birth of Alexander Won Humboldt
one of the most remarkable mea who
ever lived. Although by birth a Ger.
man, his love of science and passion for
travel made him eminently cosmopolitan
His memory is revered and his name is
cherished wherever science is known.
NO tourist OF any note who goes to
Berlin fails to make visit to the I'M

pose the ashes of the great naturalist.
by the side of his mother, his brother
and his sister and where an inscription
on the pedestal Of an unpretending
column tells the visitor that he is
ntemplating the last home of family,
which not only Germany, but the whole
world delights to honor. Here just
without the limits of the gay city of
Berlin, after a long and active life, spent
in investigating the secrets of nature, in
both the old world and the new, this
truly great man came to spend the
evening Of his days, near the same great
forests, the same green hills, and the
same beautiful lake, which he so much
loved and admired in his childhood years

A writer very correctly remarks: God
looks not at the oratory of your prayers,
how elegant they may be; nor at the
geometry of your prayers. how long they
may be, nor at the arithmetic of your
prayers, how many they may be: nor to
the logic of your prayers, how methodical
they may be I; but the sincerity of them

MARK TWAIN AT THE TOMB OF ADAM
"The- tomb of Adam How touching.it
was here in land of strangers, far away
from home, and friends, and all who
cared for me, thus to discover the grave of
a blood relation. True, distant one,
but still a relation. The unerring instinct
of nature thrilled its recognition. The
fountain of my filia affection was stirred
to its profoundest depths, and gave way
to tumultuous emotion. | leaned upon
pillar and burst into tears. / deem it no
shame to have wept over the grave Of my
poor dead relative. Let him who would
sheer at my emotion close this volume
here, for he will find little to his taste in
my journeyings through Holy Land. Noble
Cd mamie did not live to see me-he
did not live to see his child. And IL
alas! did not live to see him. Weighed
down by sorrow and disappointment, he
died before | was born-six thousand
brief summers before l was born. But
let US try to bear it with fortitudc. Let
us trust that he is better off where he is.

Fraud in India has now gone as fan
as the manufacture of wild beasts, fcl
the purpose Of cheating the Government
Premiums are paid by the Indian Gov
ernment for staying wild beasts so tig
ers, bears, and leopards are made to &C
as far as they can. First, the skin is
sent in, with skull of wood fitted into
the head; secondly, the real skull is
brought forward and sometimes as a
third resource, the real tiger or bear is
dispensed with, and the skull of hog
or jackal is rendered, provided with
false teeth and covered with pigskin,
moulded on real tigers head Some
OF the monsters were beasts of straw
The skulls arc now orde ed to be smash
ed and the skins to be sold.

A Young Man Wanted.


A lady writer under this heading hits
off the men as follows:
A woman wants you. Don't forget
her. Don't wait to get rich if you do,
ten t. ono you are not At to be married.
Marry while you are young, and struggle
UP iogether. But mark, young man,
the Woman don't want you if she has to
divide her affections with cigar, spit
toon or whiskHjug. Neither does she
want you if yoa do not care for her and
the little latter thoughts which are
sure to follow.-Neither does she want
you simply because you are man, the
definition of which is too apt to be an
animal that wears bifurcatcd garments
on his lower limbs, quarter section OF
stovopipe on his head, swears like pir,
ate and is given to filthy practiscs gene,
rally. She wants you for a companion,
a helpmate; she wants you to have
learned to regulate your appetite and
passions ;insEhort. in the image of God,
not in the likeness of beast. If you
are strong in good purposes, firm in re.
sistance to evil, pure in thoughts and
actions as you require her to be-and
without inward purity neither Of you
are fit for man or wife--if you love vir.
tue and abhor vice, if you are gentle.
manly, forbearing and kind, and not
loud talking, exciting and brutal, young
man, that woman wants you; that mod
est, fair, cheerful, bright looking woman
wants, we mean, who fills your idea of
maiden and wife. 1t is she that wants
you Marry her when you like, whether
she is poor or rich we'll trust you both
on the above conditions, without further
security.

A SERMON WELL AppLIED.-In a
country parish in Scotland the minister
and the ruling elder went over the muir
to visit al old parishioner, on a ''cate-
chis;ng' visit, aad the walk being a
long one, their appetites were pretty
keen when they arrived. Before COM
mencing the serious business, they sug-
gested that the onward man" was
clamorous. Janet accordingly went to
the "press," and placed on the table
country refreshments, bread, milk, etc.,
anl seating herself at a little distance,
requested her visitors to fall on. They
soon cleared the board, and the minister
remarked, Nov, Janet, we begin the
serious business. Do you remember the
text last Sunday, Janet :" '.'Deed l
do" replied Janet 81 mind it weel it
was the miracle of the loaves and the
fishes "And have We pondered the
subject during the week. Janet?" 'Deed
| have, an I'm thinkin' the moo that
gin you and the elder had been there,

A terrible tragedy occurred near Madison
on the 2lst. VIM. Moody, an old and re-
spected farmer, murdered his wife with
Ratchet, dragged her body from the house,
set fire to the dwelling and out buildings,
and then stood guard over them until they
were consumed; he then shot himself

to save anything, and considerable
amount of money was burned.

The entire cost Of the Suez Canal. to

about SSl 100000. But to include
improvements, which will be applied as
experience may suggest, we may safely
set the sum at SS5,000,000. 1t is
estimated by some authorities that the
annual business Of the canal will amount
to lo,OOo,O0O tons, and that it's gross
receipts will be $20,OOO.OOO

The Lineage Of Anecdotes.

lie LiHeHsc 0l AlictuOtcSs
1t is sometimes curious to trace the
lineage of anecdotes, and those who take
an interest in this kind of research may
amuse themselves with an English story
which is now going the rounds Of French
papers as a French story. The English
story relates to the famous Earl of Pc
terborough in the time of the revolution.
A lady, much admired by this nobleman,
coveted fine canary which she saw and
heard in coffee house near Charing
Cross, and begged her admirer to get
it for her. The owner was widow !;
Lord Peterborough offered large sum
of money for the bird, but in vain. 1t
was too good a singer, and the widow
was too fond of it. But my lord was
not to be baked; the commands Of his
mistress were imperative, and he deter
mined to get the canary. He found an
other exactly like it in color, and one
day took advantage Of the widows alb
scnce in another room to exchange it
for her pet The story goes that two
years atterward he venturcd to return
TO the coffee house, and to rally the
landlady on the subject of the canary
II wanted to buy that bird, but you re-
fused my money; dare say by this
time you are sorry for it, Indeed, my
lord" said she, II am not, nor would
| take any sum for him; for would you
believe it? from the time that our good
King DANES H. was forced to 90
abroad and leave us, the dear creature
has not sung note.'
Now this very story has turned up
again in Paris, with full circumstantial
details which are most creditable to the
ingenuity Of the inventor. The event
happened in the midst of the revolution
which drove Louis Philippe from the
throne of Frrucr, nc lady W.ii,J coveted
the canary was an actress Of the Varieties
Elisa Bisgontier; the canary belone ed
to the wife of concierge, and the said
Elisa made the exchange of canaries
with her own hands, after having in
vain attempted to purchase the wonder
full bird. We have no wish to rob the
fair actress of any title of her fame for
intrigue and adventure; but we cannot
allow her to carry off Lord Peterbor-
ough's story without word of protest

sun and Shadow.

As | look from the isle DER lis bilows Of green,
To the bilows Of form-crcstcd blue,
Yon bark that afar in the distance is seen,
Halfdreaming my eyes will pursue;
Now dark in the shadow she sca,ters Tho spray
As the chaff in the stroke Of the fail;
Now white as the sea-gull, she fics on her way,
The sun cleaning bright on her sail.
Yet her pilot is thinking of dangers to shun (;
OF breakers that whiten and roar;
How little he cares il in shadow or sun
They see him who gaze from the shore,
lie looks to the beacon that looms from the reef
To the rock that is under his lee,
As he drifts on the blast, like wind-wafted leaf,
Ger the gulfs of the desolate sea-
Thus drifting afar to the dim-vautcd caves
! Where life and its ventures are laid
The dreamers who gaze while battle the waves
May see us in sunshine or shade;
Yet true to our course, though our shadow grew
dark,
Wen trim our broad sail as before,
And stand by the rudder that governs our bark
Nor ask how we look from the shore.
