CHINESE CusToM.-In England it would
scarcely be regarded as an evidence of a
very tender filial affection for a son to send
his venerable father coffin as a birthday
gift but a late visitor to China declares
that in that country such gift is consid-
cred the ne plus ultra of courtesy and love.
The cheerful gift is received with gladness,
paraded Internationally in the best chamber,
and, until required for special use, is. made
a depository for clothing or food. Nothing
Is more common than for person who is
DESTROYS of a grand funeral to provide his
own coffin, according to his fancy, long be-
fore his decease.

the following notice: "Smoking Cigars
Public notice is once more given to all
persons who are in the habit of smoking
cigars in the evening that constables have
received positive orders to enter a COM

found smoking cigars after shutdown, as it
is contrary to a law of the town, made for
the purpose of preventing so dangerous
practice, and every person, without dis
tinction, who shall be found violating the
law will be prosecuted on the first COM
plant entered with the officer of police.

SILENcE.-How eloquent is sience Ac-
quiescence, contradiction, difference, dis
dain, embarrassment, and awe, may all be
expressed by saying nothing. l. may be
necessary to illustrate this apparent para
dox by few examples. Do you seek an
assurance of your lady-love's affection
The fair one confirms her lovers fondest
hopes by compliant and asserting silence
Should you hear an assertion, which you
may deem false, made by some one of
whose veracity politeness may withhold
you from openly declaring your doubt, you
denote IL difference of opinion by remain
ing silent. Are you receiving reprimand
from superior? You mark your respect
by an attentive silence. Are. you COM
PEELED to listen to the frivolous conversa-
tion of a fop? You signify your opinion
of him by treating his loquacity with con.
temptuous Silence. Are you in the course
of any negotiations about to enter on q
discussion painful to your own feelings and
ito those who are concerned in itf Tho
subject is almost invariably prefaced by an
awkward silence. Silence is also of utility
and advantage. And first, what an inval-
liable portion Of domestic strife might have
been prevented, how often might the
quarrel which, by mutual aggravation has,
perhaps, terminated in blood-shed, have
been checked at it's commencement by
judicious silence !! Those persons only who
have experienced them are aware of the
beneficial effects of that forbearance which,
to the exasperating threat, the malicious
sneer, or the uDjustly imputed culpability,
shall never answer a word. Secondly,
there are not wanting INSTANCES where the
reputation, fortune, the happiness, nay the
life of q fellow creature, might be preserv-
ed by charitable silence.

Dean Swift was once asked to preach a
charity sermon in Dublin. 1t was one of
the shortest and best ever heard. AS soon
as he got into the pulpit he said, "H He who
giveth to the poor, lendeth to- the Lord.
Brethren, that is my text. If you are sat
is6ed with the security, down with the
dust" And then he left the pulpit, and
may be the dsst did not come down that
morning in a golden cloud! The witty
dean was right.

NEWSPAPER REPORTERS II Mark Irain
NaTrdtes HIS EIperience.-In a recent lee
ture delivered in Chicago, Mark Twain gets
off the following: ~ reported on that
pretty hard work. But 1 enjoyed its at
fractions. Reporting is the best school in
the world to get knowledge of human
beings, human nature and human ways. A
nice, gentlemanly reporter make no re-
ference we'll treated by eGeryb body.
just think of the wide range Of his &C.
quaintanceship, his experience of life and
society No other occupation brings a man
into such familiar, sociable relations with
all grades and classes of people. The last
thing at night-miduight-he goes brows-
ing aronDg after items among police and
Jail birds, in the lookup, questioning the
prisoners and making lasting friendships
with some of the worst people in the world.
And the very next evening he gets himself
up regardless of expense, puts on all the
good clothes his friends have got, goes and
takes dinner with the Governor, or the
communicating chief of the district, the
United States Senator, and some more of
the upper crusts Of society. He is on good
terms with all of them, and is present at
every public gathering, and has easy access
to every variety of people. Why, break
tasted almost every morning with the Gov
ernor, dined with the principal clergymen,
and slept in the station-louse. A reporter
has to lie little, OF course, or they would
discharge him. That is the only drawback
to the profession. That is why l left it.
1 am different from Washington have a
higher and grander standard of principle.
Washington could not lie; can lie, but
won't. Reporting is fascinating, but then
it is distres sing to have to lie SO. Lying is
bad-lying is very bad. Every individual
in this house knows that by experience. I
think that for q man to tell a lie when he
can't make anything by it is wrong"

: This morning the Holy Father held a
consistory, and preconization was made of
about thirty Bishops, chiefly for the south
of Italy.
The following letter arrived too late for
insertion last week:
Dec. 15.-Tbe Jesuit Noviciate of ST..
Andrea on the Quirinal was seized by the
Piedmontese on Monday. The protestations
of the General of the Society, and of the
Generals of the other religious orders, have
been of no avail. That sanctuary, hallow-
ed by the death of st. Stanislas, and by so
many sanity lives, glorious for the innu-
merable apostles and martyrs who have
gone forth from its walls, and for SO many
noble minds who have devoted themselves
to the defence of the Church of Christ, to
the development of science and art, and to
the dissemination and progress of every
branch of learning, is destined to become q
stable, and a lodging for the grooms and
servants of q Christian Esau who has sold

American College, though nomi0ally al

the seizure. The students have to remove
at once from a great portion of the build
ing which they have occupied till now, and

last week is, that unwritten orders were
exceeded adding, that verbal alteration

Y. NJ. G. A.-MEETING FOR CHARITY.-The
audience at the First Baptist church last eve
ming was not so large as might be desired.
Those present, however, were apprecative, and,
we dare say, were highly interested. The pres
ence of the state executive committee of Y. NJ.
G. A. in this city made the holding of a public
meeting peculiarly suspicious, especially as this
committee comprises eight strong men, both in
teectua'ly and morally speaking, and men who
are willing to perform any good service. Brief
and highly interesting remarks were listened
TO from Mr.. Il. X. Remington of Fall River,
chairman of the committee, who also conducted
the meeting; from L. P. Rowland, H. NJ. Moore
of Boston, S. L. Bridgman of Northampton,
Messrs. Morse Of Springfield, and Welman
The freedom and Christian unity of Y. NJ. C.
associations was spoken of and the cause of
charity heartily advocated. Every one must
have believed, last night, that it is of no profit
to talk OF spiritual matters to hungry man,
until he has been fed. I. W. Chace, president,
and Mr.. Anderson, superintendent of the Provi-
dence association, were present and encouraged
the work
Mr.. G. c. Whitney, president of the associa-
ton of this city, stated at the close of the meet
ing, that a committee is soon to be organized,
and apartments are now being fitted up at the
rooms of the association on Pearl street, for the
protection and systematic distribution of cloth
ing and provision among worthy, destitute
families. The people of this city were earnestly
called upon to give of their abundance, and it
was stated that Mr.. Freeman is now at the rooms
daily from nine TO ten A. NJ, and will care for
anything entrusted TO his hands.
The meeting adjourned to social cup of
coffee in the yestry below, and those who stayed
were at the same time entertained by Mr.. E. b.
Story at the piano.
