THE WILL OF KoSCIUSzK0

This friend of American liberty and Polish
patriot was born in 1855, and died in Swift
zerland, October 16, 1919. An unrequited
passion for the daughter of a high officer of
State induced him to leave home for Ame-
rica, where he offered his sword to the
patriots. he received a commission as an
officer of engineers on October 19, 1776, and
during tie whole of the Revolutionary con-
flict proved himself to be gallant and sue
oessful soldier The following is his will,
which was admitted to record on the 18th of
May, 1919, and which lay for nearly half q
century forgotten in the clerks Office of the
Circuit Court of Albemarle, Virginia. We
give the document eer5atim ct literatim:-
al Thaddeus Kociuszko being just in my depar-
ture from America do declare and direct that should
make no other testimentlry disposition Of my pro-
perty in the United States, hereby authorize my
friend Thomas Jefferson to employ the whole
thereof In purchasing negroes from among his own
or any other, and giving them liberty In my name
In giving them en- education In trades or otherwise
and in having them instructed for their eondi-
ton in the duties of morality which may make them
good neighbors, good fathers, good 4noders hus-
bands or ufues and In their duties as citizens teach
and OF the good order Of society and in whatsoever
may make them happy and useful, and l make the
said Thomas Jefferson my executor OF this.
''T. KosCIUszKo,
18th day OF May, 17ss."
1t would be interesting to know what Kos
ciusko's property consisted of - whether
houses, lands, or securities-or whether any
thing was done to carry out the provisions
of the will. Perhaps a search among the
records of the Albemarle Court House would
throw some light upon this subject, and if
the property was not all disposed of by Mr..
Jefferson, it might yet be made available fer
affording relief to destitute freedmen, or in
some other way that would be in accordance
with the spirit if not the letter Of the will.

A MARVELLOUS MIRAGE.

Mr.. Thomas Waring gives in the Meteor0Lo-
gicdL Magazine the following description of
mirage of unusual splendor:-
'"Ihe party on board my yacht Hadasssh,
on her passage from Alderney to Guernsey,
witnessed phenomenon striking, and in
these latitudes very rare. The wind was
light, from e. n. E., the sky cloudless, the
sun very hot, and the barometer steady at
1921. There had been some signs of fog in
the morning, but they had disappeared. At
about $50 in the afternoon we observed over
the small island of Herme peculiar hazy re-
Election, which became more and more de-
fined, until it presented an exact inverted
image of the land beneath.
"a similar effect was soon visible round
the whole horizon. The islands Alderney,
Guernsey, Jersey, Sark, and Herme seemed
sharp-pointed, outlying rocks were capped
with inverted images of themselves, appa-
rently balanced upon them, point to point,
like enormous rocking stones. The Ortach
rocks, of which we had previously lost sight,
were now to be seen with startling clearness
in the air. The Casquetes, with its three
lighthouses, presented a most curious ap-
pearanoe. The lighthouses were drawn out
into colossal pillars, on whose summit rested
a huge mass of rock, clearer in the outline
than the real island beneath. Ships were
seen sailing keel upward through the air,
every sail and spar distinct, and in some
cases the images were reduplieated. Seve-
raj of the vessels thus reflected were below
the horizon and invisible to u.s.
''The northern end of Guernsey, where the
land runs low, was twice reflected in the air,
so distinctly that even those who were fani-
liar with the island found it hard to recognize
it, We seemed to be looking at a half sub-
merged country, where countless still lagoons
were divided from each other by narrow ~
strips of land. AS we neared Guernsey the
picture became less distinct but meanwhile

How SCHooLMAsTTRs ARE MADE IN GER
MANY.-We will endeavor to indicate the
career of an intelligent village lad who, hav-
ing at the age of fourteen completed his
school-course, resolved to become school
master If in Saxony or Silesia, he enters a
trainipg-school called PrOsemingr, because
preparatory to the seminary or normal school;
if in Prussia, he enters the house of
private tutor, probably the local school
master or clergyman. At the age OF eighteen
he proceeds to the seminary, where he has to
spend three years; the first and second to be
devoted, according to an elaborate scheme
to all the subjects he will hereafter have to
teach; the third to be spent in teaching,
under the supervision of the director of
the seminary, in the practical school"
which is simply the nearest primary
subjected to stringent discipline. He
makes his own bed aud cleans his own room;
be pays for his board and lodging-the
former being of very homely description,
and valued at eightpence or ninepence day
and provides his own bread. At the end Of
the third year he presents himself for his first
examination, which is conducted by the
authorities Of the college, under the superin-
tendeDce of the school councillor. This ex-
animation embraces religion, language,
arithmetic, writing, drawing, and singing,
and is partly oral and partly on paper. The
performances of the candidates are estimated
with great precision, and a certificate is given
to all who acquit themselves satisfac-
toriy. The teacher is now taken charge
of by the departmental councillor, who ap-
points him to q vacancy in his district. He
holds, however, only the position aud title of
provisional teacher, the full status and rank
of sehoolmaster being withheld until he has
passed second examination, held three
years after the first. This examination is
rather an investigation into character and
conduct than into attainments. When this
last ordeal has been passed, the teacher
takes the DATA of allegiance, aud receives
definite appointment as master OF school. -

THE FISH STORY OF THE CENTURY.

THE FISH STORY OF THE CENTURY.
He came into the breakfast-room one morn
ing, and in q moment it was seen that
cloud was on his brow. There sat the lady
like wife waiting for him; the table fairly
groaned, not with plated silver, but the solid
material. The cloth was white as the snow;
the family were seated around in pleasant ex
pectancy; everything was smoking hot, and
not an article there but even pampered ap-
petite could revel on. But the mans favorite
dish was not there. Closer he came to the
table, and with the inquiry, 'Did you know
that wanted shad for breakfast ?" he raised
his foot and overturned the whole table on
the floor. cit was on the fire being kept
warm for you," replied his noble wife, in her
quiet, lady-like, and conquering way. In an
instant the naughty husband comprehended
the situation; the next he was on his knees
exclaiming, "Dear wife, you are nothing less
than an angel born" Not great while after
that he died; his will was opened; his wife
was executor; he left her all he had
So, 600, ,OOO
The above touching story is from an article
on "Thundergust," in a recent number of
Halls J0urnalcf Health. The man who can
read it without dying and leaving his wife
81 600 600 is a brute, and the woman who
can read it without forthwith buying shad,
is dove not up TO the wisdom of serpents.
It is said that on the day this story appeared
in New York. some Fifty thousand more shad
were sold than on any preceding day since
the trade in that fish was first inaugurated.
Broadway, Fifth avenue, and other of the
prominent highways were one mass of
women and shsd-the former carrying home
the latter, ''to be kept warm at the fire."
