The Signatures of English NobIemen.

The Signatures of English NobIemen.
The signatures used by the English no
bility cause great perplexity to persons
not familiar with the peerage of Great
Britain. The family name is almost al
ways different from the title; for instance
the name ofthe Duke of Wellington was
Arthur Wellesley, and in all communica-
tons and letters he signed himself We'll
lington. And a similar practice is obser-
we'd by the nobility. But another case
occurs when peer succeeds to fortune
granted to him on condition of assuming
a particular name, and then, in his sig
nature, he prefxed that name to his title
Thus, the Duke of Portland, whose family
name is Bentick, acquired fortune
through his mother on the condition of
adopting the name of Scott and, in accor-
dance with the practice mentioned, signs
himself Scott Portland For the same
reason the Marquis of Salisbury signs
Gascoyne Salisbury, and Lord Ellesmere
signs Egerton Ellesmere. From this
practice singular mistake occurred in a
newspaper discussion between Sir Charles
Napier, and the Duke of Portland, the
irascible Napier surprising that he was
carrying on controversy with Mr.. Scott
Portland, and treating his opponent as an
ignoble commoner. These very delicate
questions in reference to signatures have
recently been under discussion, in conse-
quence of the designation Lady Noel-By-
ron being applied by the English news,
papers to the widow of the distinguished
poet. Her title is Lady Byron, and she
is no more Lady Noel-Byron than the
persons above mentioned are the Duke
of Scott-Portland, the Marquis of Gas
coyne-Salisbury, Or the Earl of Egerton-
Ellesmsre. In reference to this correc-
ton, those who call the widow of the poet
Lady Noel Byron contend that though the
designation is not strictly correct, it is
Familiarity used to discriminate between
the three Lady Byrons, to wit, the wife
of the poet, the wife of his cousin, and
the wife of his cousins son. The spelling
of the name also varies, being written, by
respective branches of the family, Buron,
Biron and Byron. The latter mode Of
spelling the name, together with the pro-
nunciation of the y long has been finally
adopted by the Newstead branch. The
poet himself, according to Leigh Hunt
placed the accent on the last syllable,
max ing the first syllable short.

A MAGNIFICENT HOUSE OF WORSHIP. -
The New York Herald of Saturday con-
tains very full description of the new
Jewish house of worship, built corner Of
Fifth Avenue and Forty third street, New
York, known as ''Temple Emanuel" Il
blends in unconscious harmony six differ
ent orders Of architecture Saracenic, By.
zantine Moresque, Arabesque, Gothic
and Norman. The interior decorations
are finer and more costly than of any
Christian church in the land. The Her
aid closes it's article with the following
In ten pews from the pulpit sit every
Sabbath ten millionaires, and from that
point back an aggregate of millions more
is represented. Did there ever sit to-
gether, since the days that the fair and
regal ruler of Sheba was escorted by the
gorgeous retinue of the court of Solomon
to the temple of that monarch's ambition,
such a galaxy of worldly wealth, and it
might be ventured, such galaxy of beau
ty and refinement? The roof of the tenn
pie is fiat and cut into squares by the
transverse arches. A good deal of Ella
borate polyechrome painting fills in the
spaces. The best time to observe the
many beauties in this field of decoration
is at night with the aid furnished from the
full radiance of the many blazing candle
labra The figures are brought out in
happier relief and show with lustre de-
MED them by daylight
Altogether the temple Of Emanuel
is feature in itself, and has no parallel
Its exterior is an experiment in architsc-
ture oftentimss before attempted but only
in this instance realized as success. Its
interior decoration, without being quite so
great novelty, has so many points of
originality that it fairly divides the palm
of interest with the architectural design
1t may be added in conclusion, that the
first pew sold realized the enormous sum
of SO 500.

1t is accident said Mr.. Hubbard
Such queer cranks do come, you know ,
But Mrs Hubbard was in a troubled
state Of mind, as was but natural.
The stories about the haunted house

And the loaf was put aside, for even
Mr.. Hubbard did not dare to eat any Of
it.
Mrs. Hubbard got over her fright at
last, but the news of the awfoly marked
loaf spread through B, and the peo-
pie came to Hubbard's all the week to
look at it. 1t was a deaths head and
cross-bones certainly; every one saw that
at glance, but as to its meaning, people
differed. Some believed that it was a
warning of approaching death; some
thought that the spirits wanted to fright
en- the Hubbards away, and get posses
sion of the house again. all to themselves
This latter supposition inspired Mrs. Hub
bard with courage finally, being brave
woman, she adopted the belief, and when
another baking day arrived, put her
loaves into the oven once more prepared
for cross bones, and not to be frightened
by them. The loves baked as before

Important Certificate.
speedy Cure Of Whooping Cough !

! am not in the habit of taking advertised medi-
cnes nor OF certifying to their curative effects when
they come under my observation; bnt feel con-
strained to make an exception in favor OF DoDD's
NERvINE and 1nvigorator, medicine 1 have used
in my family for some time past My little daughter
had been suffering from severe whooping cough for
several weeks, and was so much broken OF rest at
night that-by excessive coughing and loss of sleep
her constitution and general health seemed to be
giving away. Various remedies or palliatives ,were
recommended by intimate neghbors but nothing
was trled until our attention called by physi-
can NOT now in practice to Dodds Nervie. This we
procured and commenced using at once-with an eff
feet immediate and surprising AS the Commissions
were hardest at night, we began by giving the Ner-
vine on her going to bed. The first dose admnster-
ed made its impression; the cough became less fire.
quent, and very much less severe she soon got her
accustomed sleep, rapidly revived in health and
vigor and in a few days was as well as ever. What
was left of the whooping cough thereafter of no
trouble OF course cannot but consider Dodd's
Nervine and InVigor ator an invaluable romedy for
this distressing malady. l may add that have
since recommended it to several family friends, in
like circumstances and have found it in every case
to be equally successful 1t needs only to be known
to come into universal demand.

WHOOPING COUGH.

DoDD's NERvINE and Invigoiator gives agreea-
BILE and almost instant relief IN the spasms of Whoop-
ing Cough. This is complaint that all children are
expected to have; and when comes strange to saw
they are left to fight it through they best can lit
tie or nothing being done to break its intensity or
help the sufferers along. And when it is reflected
that very many of the diseases of older and adult
years have their origin in the tear and strain OF
Whooping Cough, this neglect would be utterly un-
accountable but tor the fact that chdrens diseases
like many OF the weaknesses of women, consider
ed so much matter Ofcourse that people have be-
come stlically unconcerned about them. Let them
cough it through, we did, seems generally to be
the unfeeling word Whooping cough is a nervous
disease, and Dodds NerviRe and Invgorator treats
with COMPLETE SUCCESS. Mothers, TRY IT and
save your little the agony of this Distress
ing affection. A sure and beneficent medicine.
