Mental yIgor An old Ace.

| OF celebrated writer, whose age is
sixty-seven, it is said: He now lives
in retirement, having given up all la.
bors, literary and otherwise" How often
is this record made of men whose labors,
if continued, might bless the world to
the end of timer
1t is related of Arnauld, the Jansen
list, that he wished his friend Nicole to
assist him in new work. Nicole re-
Piled We are now old is it not time
to rest?" " Rest exclaimed Arnauld,
have we not all eternity to rest in?
Dr. Samuel Miller says: There is
no doubt that the premature dotage Of
many distinguished men has arisen from
their ceasing, in advanced life, to exert
their faculties, under the impression
that they were too old to engage in any
new enterprise"
When John Adams was ninety years
of age he was asked how he kept the
vigor of his faculties up to that great
age. he replied, by constantly en-
ploying them; the mind of an old man
is like an old horse; if you would get
any work out of it you must work it all
the time"
We have many remarkable instances
of earnest and successful workers after
they had passed into the period known
as old age.
Ecclesiastical history tells the story of
Cassiodorus, who, at the age of seventy,
retired to monastery, and devoted the
remaining twenty years of his life to
literature and religion; and of Epipha-
MUS, who became an author at sixty
four and wrote several large works be-
fore his death.
Between the age of ffty-eight and
sixty-seven Baxter wrote forty works;
after the age of sixty-six some of his
most valuable works were written.
When an old man, Baxter, was brought
before the notorius Judge Jeffries on a
charge of sedition, during the trial,
Baxter ventured to put in word for
himself
Richard, Richard" roared the Judge,
" dost thou think we will hear thee
poison the Court? Richard, thou art an
old fellow, an old knave; thou hast writ
ten books enough to load cart; every
one as full of sedition-I might say trea-
son--as an egg is full oe meat. Hadst
thou been whipped out of the writing
trade forty years ago, it had been
happy"
9 The only remarkable thing says
Hannah Moore, which belonged to me
as an authoress, was that had written
eleven books after the age of sixty"
Says Lord Brougham, at the conclu-
sion Of his autobiography: " II any state
ments have been feeblY and some mac
curately, rendered, let it be remembered
that began this attempt after was
eighty-three years of age, with enfeebed
health, failing memory, and but slight
materials by me to assist it,
Plato died at the age of eighty one, it
is said, with pen in hand; and an ac-
count is given Of another who wrote a
history Of his times at the age Of one
hundred and fifteen.

Alarm i'm Austria.

Says a New York special of the Sth
A letter from Vienna says there is much
alarm in Austria at the discovery of the
existence of society in Russia for the
Russiaficatiou of all Sclavonic coun-
tries, and formation of Sclavonic EN-
pire, with Russia at its head. Among
its members, and forming part OF the
Executive Committee of the society, are
several members of the Imperial family,
and other people in high stations. Its
headquarters are at st. Petersburg, but
it has branches at Odessa, Moscow, and
Warsaw. The society has established
no less than forty-two foreign centers,
all of them in correspondence--some
openly, Others secretly-either with the
head Office or one of the branches at
Moscow, Odessa, or Warsaw. Those
foreign centers take the shape either Of
clubs, reading,rooms, lodgings, or small
coffee-honses. In each there is respon-
sibIe and duly accredited head, through
whom the society'a travelling agents re-
ceive supplies. Eleven are within the
Austrian frontier, in Bohemia. Transyl-
vania, Croatia, Dalmatia, and one IN
Vienna itself. The ostensible and pub
lie hut not real aims Of the society were
to spread the knowledge of Russian lit
erature and language, and to ASSIST DIS
tressed ScIayonic persons in non-Russisn
countries.

THE JESUITS.
Manning's views I'm Re
gard 10 Bfsmarck's PersecutfOns.

gard 10 Btsmarck's Persecutt0ns.
A London correspondent has had an
interview with Archbishop Manning, the
head of the Roman Church in Great
Britain, respecting the action of the old
Catholics in Europe and Bismarcks
course regarding the Jesuits. After
justifying the doctrine of papal infalli-
bility and the conduct of the Jesuits, he
went on to say: Princes have allowed
themselves to become jealous of the
power which alone has divine au-
thority over them They do not seem
to see that a right of despotism must
still be exercised by some power. II it
is not the Pope, it will be the mob. I'm
less Princes are to be held superior to
all laws, a deposing power must exist
somewhere in the world. By denying
the exercise of that power to the Pope,
rulers have become parties to its trans
fer to their own subjects. It is for them
to consider whether they have benefited
by the change. The Old Catholics
with whom Bismarck is acting, knew
perfectly we'll that while the Jesuits are
among the most active and most earnest
members Of the Church, they are at the
same time most misunderstood by those
who do not hold the faith.
1T might not be safe TO assail too
rudely the general body Of the church,
but in attacking this particular portion
of it the approval of prejudice and err
ror may always be assured. The old
Catholics are opposed to the dogma of
infalibility. The Jesuits were known
to have been active in its support.
The old Catholics are now OPP
posed to the Church in its en-
tirety. The Jesuits have ever been
among the foremost teachers of the
Church's authority. They have been as
bold to proclaim those truths as they
have been patient to suffer for them.
There is still danger that mobs may be
found to perform the old work of the
executioner An ignorant population,
with its passions artfully excited, and
with all the advantage to its employers
of an evasion of responsibility, might
do many things we now think to be in
credible"

The Periods OF New England Tomb.


Correspondence of the New York Tribunc.l
A boyhood passed in one of New Eng
lands ancient country villages and ia.
miliarity with several characteristic
graveyards have taught me the rudi-
ments of sur mortuary architecture.
Skilled in this, it is easy to distinguish
between the primitive, secondary, and
tertiary styles of what may denom.-
nate the Blue.stone Order of tomb
stones, and can tell at a glance in what
period the dust which soddens beneath
any visible slab must have been to dust
committed and weighted with the stony
witness TO the common lot of man. The
Colonial Order prevailed from the settle
ment of the country to half century
ago, when marble began to be used by
our stone-cutters, and may be divided,
if you choose, as follows:
/. The Deaths head, of geometric
style, expressive of the physical terrors
of mortality, and easily recognized by
the skull which makes hideous the sum-
nit of the stone, or by the circles, con-
tanning arcs, which the compass and
chisel of the primitive artists have cut
on either corner; 2. The Bottomless
Angel style--stones headed with moon.
faced cherubs, "all head and wings,
with nothing to excite ones spanking
propensities." This lasted until the
Revolution, and was followed by-3.
The Weeping Willow style, extending,
with urnal and other variations, down to
the obelisk, cross, star, and arch, refine
ments of our own composite age.

John I'm the Kitchen.
rom the Nov Orleans Picayune. ]


The proverbial cleanliness Of the new
clement" the Chinese, whose influx
into this city has become quite extensive
recently, will not be denied by those who
have had an opportunity to observe
them closely; and yet, like everything
else, this boasted virtue Of the "sons of
the sun " is, after ALL relative. 1t was
but yesterday that large circle was put
into roar Of laughter upon being in
formed by charming lady OF the man
ner employed by Chinese cook to sea-
son salad. The story may appear in
credible, but it comes from undoubtful
authority. The ladv in question related
that one of her friends, who enjoys the
service of one of those Celestial Brilliant
Savarins upon descending into her kitch-
en-. the other day, was not little sur
prised and still more disgusted to dis
cover her cook leaning over copiously
filed dish of salad, beating his inflated
cheek alternately with his right and left
hands, and pouring from his mouth into
the dish gushing spray of mixture
of oil, vinegar salt, pepper, egg yelk and
mustard, and then, with his tapering
digits, mix the whole still further to
make it ready for the table. The house
keepers emotions naturally caused her
to faint, and the last heard of the Chi
nese cook he was applying at a city
foundry for a position in the moulding
department of the institution, where his
services as q spray-spouter would be in
valuable.

Riding Astride.

The question, should ladies ride
astrideP is exciting considerable dis
cussion just now. Tennie Clafhn says
she is not rooster, and therefore will
not wear spurs, and that she is not a
man, and therefore will not ride the
regimental horse astride. On the other
hand, Grace Greenwood and three other
ladies made visit recently to the Mari
posa grove of big trees and the Yosemite
Valley, going from South Merced, all the
way and back, ON horseback, cavalier
fashion, because no side saddles could
be obtained; and they liked it. Grace
saws:
With tear for the modest tradi-
tions of our sex, and shudder at the
thought OF the figures we should pre-
sent, we four brave women accepted the
situation, and, for the nonce, rode as
women used to ride in the happy heroic
days, before Satan for her ENHANCEMENT
and enslavement, invented trained
skirts, corsets and si1e-saddles. We
were fortunately provided with strong
mountain suits of dark flannel and wat
erproof, which fitted us for this emer-
gency, and for any rough climbing We
had a fancy for, and there was not a
little. Well, after trial of some fifteen
miles the first day and twenty-six the
second, we all came to the conclusion
that this style of riding is the safest,
easiest, and therefore the most sensible
for long mountain expeditions, and for
steep, rough and narrow trails. lf ma
ture intended women to ride horseback
at all she doubtless intended it should
be better after this fashion; otherwise we
should have been a sort of land va
riety OF the mermaid.
