The Vagabond Sage.

An old man of very ancient ply
siognomy, answering to the name o
Jacob Wilmot, was brought TO the
Police Court. His clothes looked n,
though they might have been bought
secondhand in his youthful prime
for they had suffered more from rubs
of the world than the proprietor him
self.
"What business?"
"None; / am a traveller
"a vagabOnd, perhaps"
"You are not far wrong. Travel
ers and vagabonds are about the same
thing. The difference is that the
latter travels without money and the
former without braills.'
"Where have you traveled?'
"All over the continent"
"For what purpose?'
"ObservatiOn."
"What have you observedN
"a little tocommend, much to cen
sure, ane a great deal to laugh al"
"Humph! what do you commend?'
"a handsome woman who will
stay at home, an eloquent preacher
who will preach short sermons, Il
good writer that will not write too
much, and fool that has sense
enough to hold his tongue"
"What do you censure"
"a man that marries girl for her
fine clothing, a youth who studies
medicine while he has the use of his
hands, and the people who will elect
Il drunkard to Office
"What do you laugh at|
81 laugh at a man who expects his
position to command that respect
which his personal qualifications and
qualities do not merit"
He was dismissed.

Cur Foreign Population.

Mr.. De Bow, after great labor, fixes
the number of foreigners and their
descendants at II, ,112,662 and of white
Americans, descended from residents
in the country in 1890, at 22,323, 1888.
The population tables Of the ninth
census partially confirm the correct
ness of these results. Table fouI
gives l0,S92, ,0l5 as the number of in
habitants having one or both parents
Of foreign birth, while the number OF
foreign born is but 5,556, ,5i6. Mr.. De
Bows is perhaps million too small.
Twenty years ago, by the census OF
1850, the whole f0reign-bon popula-
ton numbered 2,2ll, ,6O2, but the in.
crease has been very large since 1850.

Hence, everything of tho kind should

An Artificial WhirlUind.

The fact that whiTlwinds are caused
by upward currents OF heated air, wa,
recently demonstrated in the town o
Queensburg, N, Y. \ farmer having
occasion TO burn a yelIow-piue falloV
of some twenty acres, fearing that the
fire might spread into the adjacent
timber, ignitcd the 'fallow in several
places on the edge, after taking the
precaution of cleaning or Jha brush
from a strip surrounding it. The
flames rushing towards The centre
from every direction, the air and
smoke soon assumed a rotary motion,
which increased in intensity. This
whirlwind (for such it was, after be-
coming fairly formed, moved with
wonderful velocity on It's axis, tearing
up small trees by the roots and lifting
them into the air stripping the branch
es from some that adhered too firmly
to the ground, and fairly wriuging the
bark from others. 1t was aCcompa-
MED by noise resembling thunder,
and lasting from five to ten minutes,
but did not pass the bounds of the ial-
low, although it swayod back and
forth across the field Of fire several
times.

Those marked with star are members

Messrs. Mallory and Brooks it is under
stood, are not claimed as members of the
Republican party, but they are men of
liberal sentiments, moderate lii their
actions, having large pecuniary interests
in the city, and being able and skillful
linanciers, it is thought their presence in
the Council will be an advantage to the
city, and it will do the party no harm
to show liberal spirit towards those who
deal fairly by us. r- a.s .
Altogether our Council ticket is good
one, and viii receive the support of the en-
tire party and of many Conservatives.
All the wards of the city except the
fourth have ratified the general city ticket.
The late excitement and dissatisfaction
with the ticket is now subsiding. The
nomination by the Conservatives OF a
Democ,dt-or so-called- hberal-independen
Greeley-Gratz-Gilbert G. Walker-true-
Republicans for mayor, has contributed
more than anything else towards uniting
our party, and the determination now is to
