ship Canal Across The Isihmus.

A ship canal across the Isthmus of
Darien, or by Nicaragua, by which car
goes could be dispatched to and from
Asia and the islands of the South Pa
cific without breaking bulk, would prob
ably do more to promote our commerce
with those distant parts of the world
than any other means that could be
adopted. Water carriage must, in
point of cheapness, always have the ad-
vantage over that of railroads, especially
where weighty and bulky freights are in
the case; and, although we shall sooner
or later have several railroads between
the Atlantic and the Pacific States, yet
they will at best prove but auxiliaries to
the fleets of steamers on the Atlantic
and the Pacific, so far as the trade of
Asia is concerned. Our Western pro-
duce is all bulky, and requires the cheap
est and least variable transportation
such as, relatively, the route via the
Mississippi and the Nicaragua canal
would offer. With such short cut af-
forded, there would doubtless be a de-
mand for this produce in the markets of
the far East, where an over.dense popu-
lation is ever painfully pressing on the
limits of subsistence. The more the
western world receives in the way of ex-
portable products from China, Japan
and other far eastern countries, the
more exigent will be the need of those
countries for the exportable products of
the western world. The survey by the
officers of our government of the Darien
route for ship canal having been at
terded with poor success, public atten-
ton is once more turned to the Nicara-
Uua rnnfn N .Ma..

A Curions Caiculation.

Two persons were born at the same
place at the same time. After an age of
fifty years they both died, and at the
same place and the same instant, yet
one had lived one hundred days more
than the other. How was this possible2 ?
Not to keep our readers in suspense, the
solution turns on curious, but with a
little reflection very obvious point in
circumnavigation. A person going
around the world towards the west loses
a day, and towards the east he gains
one. Supposing, then, two persous born
together at the Cape of Good Hope,
whence a voyage around the world may
be performed in year; if one performs
this constantly toward the west, he will
be fifty days behind the stationary in
habitants--and if the other sail equally
toward the east, he will be fifty days in
advance Of them. One, therefore, will
have seen one hundred days more than
the other, although they we're born and
died in the same place and at the same
moment and even lived continually in
the same latitude, and reckoned time by
the same calendar. W

Jim Fisk's Advice 20 n BeautffuI
Miss POffDhaP.

Eleanor Kirk tells beautiful little in.
cident of the late Colonel Fisk, which
she vouches for as true in every particu-
lar. li ta lnla
In passing out of his opera house one
day last winter, Colonel Fisk was ac-
costed by very beautiful young girl,
apparently about seventeen. She was
plainly, but tastefully, dressed, and ap-
peared very earnest in her desire to be
allowed a few minutes conversation.
Her story was quietly told:
" have failed in everything / have
undertaken 10 earning my own living
My father is a paralytic, and is utterly
helpless. ! must take care of him. To
do this / must have money. / am beau
tiful-that l know as well as you do"
Well, volunteered the Colonel, "and
you wish to speculate on these personal
charms?'
II want money, Mr.. Fisk, for my
father, replied she.
Tell me-" continued this strange
man, and tell the truth:-are you good
girl2"
Yes, sir" sobbed the child.
" And would you rather continue
one2" he askedagain.
"Oh, Mr.. Fisk Of course / would"
she replied, bursting into tears.
Well, then" said he, kindly, and
with strong feeling, for Gods sake
keep so. Jim Fisk is a pretty rough
boy, but he never hurt hair Of wo-
mans head yet, and he never will; and
more than that, little girl, it shall never
be said of him, when he has passed in
his checks and stands before the judg-
ment seat, that he has ever so much as
winked at the ruin of any girl. / will
help your father, if you will promise me
that you will never try this dodge again
with anybody; and | want you to be
solemn about it as if you stood in the
presence of your God"
The promise was given, the father was
taken care of until his death, and the
girl was educated for music teacher,
and is now successfully employed.

Helen Josephine.

Herald Report Of the Stokes Trial1
The great attraction of the day was
the appearance of the modern Cleopatra
in court, who is known in this fight as
Helen Josephine Mansfield, and her
cousin Mrs. Marietta Williams, in ad.
dition to the mother of Mrs. Mansfield.
Mrs Mansfield came into court attired
in al. the magnifcence that gold, silks,
diamonds and laees could bestow. She
had descended from her carriage in
Broadway, and, as a great many people
have a curiosity to know how this Aspa-
sia dresses, it shall be given. First there
was heavy black silk underskirt Gov
cred over with some white filmy fabric
which came to the throat, and over her
shoulders was thrown very handsome
black lace shawl pinned in front at the
shoulders. Around her neck was a
massive gold chain, pendant from which
was an equally massive gold cross, and,
to make it complete, at her wrists were
massive gold bracelets richly chased.
Mrs. Mansfield wore Henri Quatre hat,
with rich black vail and long lavender
kid gloves. In her ears were large hoop
earrings of gold and sapphire. She
sat behind the reporters during the
day, and on her right was her
mother, Mrs. Mansfield, who was
dressed in black silk, and who is still
very prepossessing woman. Mrs.
Helen Josephine Mansfield is woman
of extraordinary fairness of skin, while
her mother is darker, stouter and short
er. Helen Josephine has dark, liquid
eyes, and her cousin, Marietta Williams,
is blonde, with tawny hair and gray
blue eyes, Her dress was also tawny
colored silk dress of two shades, and
she had tawny and black hat on her
head, and everything that was not rich
on her person was tawny, with the ex-
ception of the heavy gold hoop earrings,
similar to those of Mrs. Mansfield.
When Mrs. Mansfield saw Stokes yes
terday morning it was for the first time
since his confinement for the killing OF
Fisk, on January 6. This woman, who
is a magnificent Medusa, took long,
tender look at Stokes, and seemed for a
moment to drink In his every feature.
Still the Medusa kept her nerves well in
hand, and thought, no doubt, Of the
many strange things that had happened
since she last saw Stokes, at the York
vile Police Court on that memorable
Saturday morning. Stokes looked at
Mrs. Mansfield and Just bowed in return
to the look, and Mrs Stokes, the mother
of the prisoner, who is said to be a wo-
man of strong religions feelings, regard
ed Mrs Mansfield with look that only
a mother could fathom,

The Euglish are indOmitabIe lovers Of

The Euglish are indomitable lovers OF
sport, and their protection of game
seems to come in for as much considera-
ton almost as their poor laws. The
grouse in Scotland, for instance, appear
just now to be a little under the weather,
and the consequence is that we have
bulletins issued about them as those
which accompanied the illness of the
Prince of Wales. The latest intelli-
gence is that these plump and valuable
targets for powder and shot are suffer
ing from "hoarseness and Group and
at another time the whole sporting
world is put into fever of excitement
by the announcement that the Matching
season will be unfortunate on account of
the weather. The4atter, if true, would
be serious, for unless grouse are hatched
sportsmen wauld have no grouse to
shoot at; but as to hoarseness," the
grouse being not particularly distin-
guished as a singing bird, it would be
far more serious to hear such state
mont about the nightingale, or that the
sweet-toned thrush was afflicted with the
thrush. aH

OF all the hotels in the world the very
oldest is lonely one in California, on
the road between San Jose and Santa
Cruz. Imagine ten immense trees stand
ing few feet apart and hollow inside;
these are the hotel, neat, breezy and ro-
mantle. The largest tree is sixty-fve
feet around, and contains a sitting-room
and that bureau Of Bacchus wherefrom
is dispensed the thing that biteth and
stingeth. All about this tree is q gar
den of flowers and evergreens. The
drawing-room is bower made Of red
wood, evergreens and madrona branches.
For bed.chambers there are nine great
hollow trees, whitewashed or papered,
and having doors cut to fit the shape of
the holes. Literature finds place in
leaning stump, dubbed the library"
If it were not for that same haunt Of
Bacchus, it is certain that the guests Of
this forest establishment would feel like
nothing so much as drysds.
