HeW Not 70 Get Your Money.

Hew Not to Get Your Money.
An exchange says: Going to law to
recover a debt, or character, or any
thing else. for that matter. is not very
paying occupation-except for the law
yers. To illustrate: In Yew Nork late
ly share in the Glenham Hotel was
sold to Mr.. Peters for sS,4l5 O4. A
judgment creditor of the seller, whose
Judgment amounted to $2,954, attached
the proceeds. Did he make the debt
Not much. Why i? Thus it was:
A receiver was appointed. who held
the fund about three months, and on, ot
it, by order of the court" he made sun
dry disbursements. To himself. as ere
ceiver and manager" he paid $1,000; to
his counsel" $1,000; and to his "at-
torney..' sl.46a; to the counsel for
Peters, who th ght the shsre. $3.50 ;
and to Peters attorney, S225; to another
individual. who figures as an attorney"
1926 more and yet to another, who
figures as superintendent" $500; and
finally he paid the Collector of Internal
Revenue, $Sl6 All these sums disburs
ed aggregated S7,9S4, so that when the
disbursing process was done, there re-
mained s43l O4 for the creditor. who had
originally attached fund nearly twenty
times this amount, provided he could
overthrow a claim that another party put
in for "wages" somewhat in excess of
this sum.
The judgment creditor is rapidly be-
coming n candidate for admission to a
lunatic asylum, in his frantic mental en-
deavor to ascertain why this should be
thus. We imagine man had better in-
dulge in row up Niagara Falls, or at
tempt to find them ten thousand dollars
than 90 to law, at least in New York
city.
Throughout the interior of Africa. and
indeed in some parts of Asia, woman
is priced for fatness. Beauty is associa-
ted with excessive obesity; and such be-
ing the public sentiment, mothers season
ably commence asystem of dietic treat
ment that makes their daughters irresist-
ible. Colonel Keating's travels give an
account Of the process of fattening
young woman for Tunis market. As
soon as betrothed, she is coIped up in
small room, with shackles on her ankles.
If her proprietor has lost wife by death
or divorced one, their ank!ets are set for
ward for the new matrimonial candidate
When she has attained desirable size,
indicated by filling the pattern rings, che
is carried in triumph to her new home
The preparation of food that actually
produces that coveted dimension-a
mountain Of fatness-is call drough,
made of seeds of vegetable peculiar to
the country. Some positively die from
excessive fatness in an effort to surpass
in that bewitcling accomplishment rival
for matrimonial positions
These famous mortals are not the poor
girls. They are the higher orders in So
ciety, and therefore are ambitious, like
in some civilized States of
securing an elevated position with rich
husband. Bruce the traveller, saw a
great queen in Africa, gem of woman
the envy Of her sex and wife hunters,
WHO weighed over four hundred.

GOOD FOR TEE HERALD

Our Gravier street contemporary has at
last found the source of political wisdom,
truth and philosophy. After cropping
among its Democratic exchanges for
nearly the whole term of its existence
say little more than half year-it has
found light at last. It has taken the
REPUBLICAN as its guide, and bids fair to
be of some use to the community in
which it is printed. Its pretended aston
ishment, however, at our exposition of
Republican sentiments suggests the sus-
picion that it has not read us very care
fully heretofore. After quoting a para
graph from the REPUBLICAN of yesterday,
our neighbor appends the following
Conceding the honesty, truthfulness and
philosophy of these remarks, we are puzzled
to reconcile them with the proposition so
constantly maintained by this journal. that
the coiored people are safer depositaries of
political power, and more to be relied on
for an Efficient administration of the laws
and wise choice of the rulers of free
and civilized people, than their recent tu-
tors ana guides OF superior intelligence in
IL
ties of civilized society.
We consult our files and our memory in
vain for confirmation of the assertion that
we have ever maintained the Imposition
above recited. We have claimed for the
colored people the sagacity to recognize
their friends, and maintained for them
the right OF choice. But we have never
supposed their ''recent tutors" unworthy
of any trust they would voluntarily IN
dertake. Many who have sincerely pro-
fessed Republican principles have been
honorqd with the confidence and support
Of the colored people, while those who
have marched through the streets with
their little transparencies labeled Down
with the niggers p This is white mans
government p have been left to the sup
port of those who like such sentiments.
