''Gath" has discovered the man who is to
take Fisk's place, and writes thus about him
in the Chicago Tribune:
In conversation to-day with prominent
Wall-street broker, he told me that the 'com-
ing man of the street was Mr.. Henry Smith,
and then he told me a little something about the
man which will repeat Mr.. Smith is q young
man-active, energetic, ambitious and far.
seeing He was formerly member of the
firm of Fisk, Gould s. Martin, but withdrew
therefrom some time since, and has since been
operating in his own name. He spends his
whole time in Wall street, dealing almost ex-
clusively in railway shares-sometimes car
rIying millions of dollars worth. My author
ity says that he made four millions of dollars
clear last year, and that he is now worth from
seven to ten millions. He is a bold, fearless
speculator, who, having once calculated the
chances, persistently pushes forward till sue
cess crowns his efforts. He can in no wise
be called reckless-but he carefully makes up
his mind, and then is bold and fearless in the
execution of his plans. It il predicted of
him that his immense railroad interests will
yet necessitate his becoming manager of some
of the great railroad corporations. Wander
bilt, Gould and other princes recognize in
MIR. Smith q foeman worthy of their STEEL
and prophesy that he will become the 'dicta-
tor of the street. AS to his morality in busi-
ness matters, he probably has as good sun
ply of that commodity as any of his brother
spectators. Mr.. Smith now has large fol-
lowing of operators in the street, as does eyery
new man possessing vigor, originality and
success. The prophesy as to his success is
worth recording"

A Wonderful Surgical Operation.

The European papers are full of the details
of wonderful surgical operation which has
recently taken place in public hospital in
Paris. A Mr.. Rodun was wounded in the
face by gunshot, the bullet hitting the nose
near the zygomatic arcade. The excessive
cold weather of the season provoked an cry
sipelas, which soon became very dangerous.
One of the eyelids had to be removed in sew
eral operations from the subciliary tissue to
the under part of the orbit. That part of
the eye called sclerotica was laid quite bare.
Doctor Labbi undertook a remarkable auto
plastic operation, which consisted in remoy-
ing several pieces of skin from the arm and
applying them at an interval of several days,
over the eye This system of human graft
ing proved o complete success; the eyelid
performs its functions to perfection and has
a very natural appearance. This operation
is without precedent and DR.. Labbi deserves
much praise for his skill and boldness. .rl..

Mount Honsi.

There are Indian traditions which indicate
an eruption of Mount Hood, in Oregon, but
there exists no other evidence ON the subject
except that of scientific observation. The
natural desire of every American citizen is,
that If Mount Hood is about to return to ac-
tive life as volcano, ii will do so on a scale
worthy of the nation which has arisen around
it since the last eruption. The eyes of great
people are upon it, and if it shows proper
spirit Mount Hood may become nations

THE Danbury, CT, Nems says: "a young
lady in a neighboring town has taken up
dentistry for living. All the gentlemen in
the town patronize her. When she puts her
caresses his jaw for the offending member,
the sensation is about as nice as they can
make 'em. One young man has become
hopelessly infatuated with her, consequently
he hasn't a tooth in his head. She has pulled
every blessed one of them, and made him
two new sets and pulled them. She is now

A NEW kind of type for the blind has been
invented by Reuben Vose, New York brok-
er, by the use of which it win cost only two
dollars to print Bible, instead of fifty, as at
present, and TO further complete the system a
printing press has been constructed by which
the blind can print for themselves, enabling
them to carry on correspondence with their
friends as well as those with eyes.

A GRAND OLD POEM.

Who shall Judge man from manners?
Who shall know him by his dress?
Paupers may be fit for princes,
Princes fit for something less;
Crumbled shirt and dirty jacket,
May beclothe the golden ore
OF the deepest thought and feeling
Satin vests could do no more.
There are springs of crystal nectar
Ever willing out of stone;
There are purple buds and golden,
Hidden, crushed and overgrown;
God, who counts by souls, not dresses,
Loves and prospers you and me-
While He values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man, upraised above his fellows,
Oft forgets his fellows then,
Masters, rulers, lords remember
That your meanest kinds are men;
Men of honor, men Of feeling,
Men by thought and men by fame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine,
In mans ennobling name.
There are foam-embroidered oceans,
There are little weed-clad rills;
There are feeble inch-high saplings,
There are cedars on the hills;
God, who counts by souls, not station,
Loves and prospers you and me;
For to him all famed distinctions
Are as pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
OF nations wealth and fame;
Titled laziness is pensioned,
Fed and fattened on the same;
BY the sweat of others foreheads,
Living only to rejoice;
While the poor mans outraged freedom
Vainly lifted up his voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with loveliness and light;
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is a sunny right;
God, whose world-heard voice is singing
Boundless love to you and me,
Sinks oppression with its titles,
AS the pebbles in the sea.

POSTAL TELEGRAPHY.-In England all
the telegraph lines are now owned by the
government, and short messages may be
sent to any Part Of the kingdom for twenty
five cents. The government issues what
are called postal telegraph cards, bearing
twenty-five cent postal stamp On this card
you write your telegraph message, and drop
it in the lamp-post letter-box. The letter
carrier delivers it to the telegraph depart
ment, and the message is promptly for
warded to its destination. The English

SPECIAL NOTICES.


The relaxation Of nervous energy which
creates an indisposition to physical or men,
tai effort, 80 strong as almost to amount to
positive inability, and which we term lassi.
tude, proceeds from variety ofcauses The
principal of these are constitutional debil'
ity, heat of the atmosphere, coupled with
humidity, climatic changes, and the phys.
ical prostration consequent upon long ILL
ness. But whatever the cause, 1t must be
perfectly clear that If the nervous system Is
unduly relaxed, something is required to
brace 1t up. That something is Hostetter's
Btters, which is universally recognized as
the most complete and speedy recuperant
of the physical forces in existence. 1t has
been so thoroughly and widely demon
strated as to be a matter of positive certain
ty and familiar knowledge, that the Bitters
will not only rehahilitate the physique,
when shattered and wasted by disease, but
will Also If taken systematically, actually
compensate the constitutionally feeble
frame for its deficiency Of strength, and by
infusing new lite into weak system, en-
dow i, with the health and vigor which
Nature has denied it. The Bitters also ena-
BILE the body to resist the enervating inf1u-
ences of heat, humidity, and changes from
a temperate to a hot climate. 1t is on these
accounts specially 10 be recommended to
travellers and residents in the torrid zone,
and persons subjected to abrupt transitions
