The romantic devotion of Shaun, who sacrificed
himself for Arrah has been initiated in real life by
young girl in London. To save her betrothed, the
actual culprt, she went into Court and swore that
she had stolen the diamond pin of the abstrac-
ton of which he was accused. This would be called
true love by the sentimentalist but all how much
more noble and beautiful and unselfsh was the con-
duct Of the young Philadelphia lady who sold her
new bonnet the other day that the man she loved
mightpurchase ball ticket That now, is high
minded devotion Of which few, very few women are
capable.

An Italian newspaper at San Francisco publishes
a letter from one Cesare Moreno, in which 1t is
stated that Mr. Ferdinand De Luca. the Consul
General of Italy in this country is responsible for
the traffic in Italian children long since exposed in
our columns As the letter is accompanied by a
declaration from the editor that he does not credit
all that Mr.. Moreno says, and an intmatlon that
such statements are infamous, the forco of the
declarations against Mr.. De Luca will not do him
much injury in honest mems eyes,

The Navy Department still shrouds the
Polaris matter in mystery. 1t announces that
q twO-headed expedition Of an anomalous
character is to be sent in search of the sur
viyors, and it condescends at last to say that
the separation of the Tyson and BuddingtOn
parties was accidental. But for reasons which
no mortal can as yet guess, it reserves what
ever it has learned of the matter for its own
consumption.

Here is a boy who is preco cous to some purpose.
He resides in Texas (Brenham County, and boing
ten years old only he does not shine as calculating
boy or as a musical boy; but at this tender age he
proudly enters the ranks of agrcultursts and this

aero of millet. We fully agree with the solemn
words of The Houston Telegraph, which, without fear
of contradiction. boldly says This boy WILL no

Accounts from Japan are not very encour-
aging. The new order of things has been SO
feverish in lis progress that an enormous debt
has suddenly been created, and no adequate
provision has been made for its disposition.
The feudal system produced great rev.
enues to the government and nobility
its abolition revolutionized the whole sys-
TEN of finance and in the chaos
which followed, vast expenditures were
incurred by the Government. Perhaps the ad-
vance made in the introduction Of Western
civilization has been too severe tax on the
resources of the Empire. 1t is certain that the
Japanese have not shown themselves masters
of the science of finance; and the result is a
debt of more than $1OO,OOOOOO, which they do
not know what to do with. 1t is quite possible
that some part of this great Indebtedness is the
work of dishonest public servants. At any rate
it is intimated that the failure of the Finance
Ministers to keep the budget within reason
able limits has 80 incensed the Imperial head
of the Government that they may be invited
to commit kari-kiri. In Japan, to invite a
public official to rip himself up is merely Of
fering him q more genteel way Of getting out
of the world than we give to a murderer
when we hang him.

The Spanish Ministry and Cortes are about
to begin seriously the work of organizing the
Federal Republic. 1t is said that Senor Cas-
telar, relieved from the labOrs Of the Depart
ment of State, is about to present to the
Cortes, in his capacity of Deputy, plan for
the division Of Spain and her colonies into
thirteen States. Commission will be formed
to draw up Federal Constitution, of which
the distinguished orator will probably be Pres
ident. 1t is to consist Of twelve members OF
the Cortes and thirteen representatives OF the
proposed States The news from Spain lndl-
Gates a reasonable prospect of quieter times,
and the Government Of SenOr Pi y MargaH
may yet have an opportunity to try the great
experiment of the Federation, though it must
be confessed under not very favorable circum-
stances.

With all their tractableness and supposed
childlke and bland behavior, the Chinese
have wills of their own. A company OF
workrnen at the cutlery works in Beaver Falls
Penn, who have given great anguish of mind
to the Caucasian inhabitants of the region,
have actually mutinied because they are
denied the comforts of Opium-smoking
and the recreation of gambling. The
Chinaman does not, as rule,
smoke opium to excess, but he likes it mixed
with his tobacco; and this sometimes leads
to an intemperate use of the drug. 1t would
be a little curious if these Objectionable habits
of the Chinese should send them away from
Pennsylvania after the movement against
them shall have failed. For the aggrieved
Cinnamon declare that they will go back to
their native land if their smoking and gam
bling are interfered with.

NJ. Goulard, the Minister of the Interior
under NJ. Thiers, who left the Ministry to
show Jules Simon the way out, has had short
experience of private life, and has now re-
sumed his old place in the more congenlal
Cabinet of Marshal MacMahon. A vacancy
was made for him by the resignation OF NJ
Beul6, who has made himself the scapegoat
of the wretched blunder of the press circular
of last week. This shows that little sense
of decency still remains in the Cabinet and
is on the whole a hopeful sign. NJ. Goulard Is
no improvement upon NJ. Beul6 in political
svmpathies, but he is not likely to commit
sncb imbecilities as marked the brief career of
his predecessor.

Three lines of telegraphic dlspatcn m"ho

tion the introduction of railroads and tele-
oranhs and the opening of coal and IRON
mines, This, we presume. is the rash utter
ance of some over-sanguine correspondent.
Sucb a radical departure of the Chinese Gov
eminent from its ancient policy would be
eouivalent to great revolution. 1t is too
mncb TO expeot, even of the present young
Emperor, who has consented to allow his COM
monest subjects to gaze on his sacred person.
The Tribune Lecture Extra to be issued
next Thursday will be an eight-page sheet,
illustrated with sixty engravings. We have
from time to time mentioned the extraordinary
circulation attained by this class of TRIBUNE
publications. AS the new Extra will contain
the complete course of the Museum Lectures
of Prof Agassiz, embodying the protest and
arguments of that distinguished scientist
against the Darwinian theory, we anticipate
for it fully as extensive a sale as that reached
by our edition of Prof. Tyndalrs Lectures. A
limited number of advertisements will be pub
lished in this Extra, without display, at 81 per
line.

picious looking bottle of about four
quarts capacity, | smelled oft. There
had been whisky in it at some previ-
GUS time, and they had forgotten to
thoroughly rinse the bottle. Some Of
the odor remained. Said I to Mr.,
"You are aware Of my temperance
principles, l will take lemonade"
He said something about suspending
the discipline during the heated term,
but | frowned down this remark at
once.
Then | went away, and walked
down to Castle Garden, where about
five thousand Dutchmen with their
offspring and frauleins had just arriv-
ed; surrounding the offices of the
Pennsylvania Railroad like a mob
during the Commune in Paris. The
boat had first arrived, and | went on
board. We played Il good deal more
on the way to Amboy, and I was told
that some of the brethren didn't much
like 1t because we didn't play all the
way up the river. We were not re-
quired to eat any more on board the
boat, and felt correspondingly grateful.
And at about 10 p. m. we arrived at
our station, sadder, and it is to be hop
ed, wiser men.
So far as | am concerned, speaking
for one only, am deeply grateful to
the Baptists for their generosity and
the attention shown us; only hoping
that when they want another cornet
player to accompany them on an ex-
cursion, they will honor some one
else. am not selfish, and am will

the whole, don't think going on ex-
cursions is my best hold.

A Lignum-vits Man.

Who are the men that are needed
in this world? Young men that will
bear burdens. We have enough null
len stalks; we want oak trees We
have enough mushrooms we want
timber! We have enough men that
are willing to do anything for the
sake OF getting along; but what are
they worth? They are bridges for
men to walk over. They are tools
men use them, like sand-paper, to
scour with, and then throw them down
and trample them under foot Ayoung
man that does not know how to say,
"No;" young man that has no pow
er to resist the cup when it is present.
ed to him what is he but poor,
washcloth? but rag, dis
honored and put to the vilest uses ?
Who cares for him, or mourns over
him but some Christian mother or
Christian minister? But young
man that knows how to say "No!
that knows how to resist evil; that
knows how to stand firm in tempta-
tion-is not he hardening himself ?
Is not he making his bones tough,
particularly his backbone :? And it is
such as he that are sought after in
business. A man:says:-

Chamber Scene.
She rose from her untroubled sleep,

She rose from her untroubled sleep,
And put away her soft brown hair,
And, in tone as low and deep
AS loves first whisper, breathed prayer
Her snow-white hands together pressed,
Her blue eyes sheltered in the lid,
The folded linen Oil her breast
Just swelling with the charms it hid
And from her long and flowing dress
Escaped bare and slender foot,
Whose shape upon the earth did press
Like new snowflake, white and mute,
And there from slumber, pure and sweet,
Like young spirit fresh from heaven,
She bowed her slight and graceful form,
And humbly prayer to be forgiven.
0 God, if souls unsoiled as these
Need daily mercy from Thy throne
If she upon her bended kness-
Our loveliest and purest one
She with her face 30 clear and bright
We deem her some stray child of light
If she, with those soft eyes in tears,
Day after day in her first years,
Must kneel and pray for grace from Thee,
What far, far deeper need have We?
How hardly, if she win not heaven,
Will our wild errors be forgotten

porkers, 5000 geese, and other articles
in proportion, so that if their revenues
were great their hospitality was large.
OF the education, it may be said,
that although the clergy were the
best trained, yet many ofthe laity had
large learning. Henry With spoke
four languages, and knew theology
and history with an eminent degree Of
proficiency. The education of the
youth included horsemanship, dalicing,
music, as well as the ancient langu
ages, and the polite arts of compost
ton and conversation.
The trades were organized, and
regulated by companies, some of
which have become historic, as the
Fishmongers', the Goldsmiths, the
MERGERS. We cannot pause to give
details, but suffice it to say, that these
organizations had almost despotic
sway over the trades they determin-
ed who should learn them, where,
how long they should serve, the quail
ty of the goods, the prices for which
they should be sold, and all the details
of business. These companies, had
the power from the government.
They erected great schools for the
education of orphans of their trades
men, and also possessed privileges
and property such as are apt to accrue
to corporations in the lapse Of time
An attempt to accomplish much the
same results, is making, in these times,
both in England and America, by
means of the Trades Unions. These
latter, however, are voluntary organiza-
tions, and approach the subject by
vastly different methods.
Another very interesting institution
of the time of the Tudors was the
strolling play acting. The principal
events in Scripture for ages, were en-
acted, by the performers of mystery
and passion players, as they were
called. But there were also many of
a less sombre character. Shakespeare
himself has left us many a picture of
the village drama. Doubtless he had
seen many Bottom in the Warwick
shire hamlets many Il Sir Nathaniel
playing 'Allisande' and finding him
self "a little DER parted He had
been with Lung, the joiner, Ounce,
the carpenter, and Flute, the bellows
maker,-when a boy we will not
question he had acted with them and
written the parts for them, had gone
up, with them in winter evenings to
Lucys Hall before the sad trouble
with the deer stealing and after
ward, when he came to London and
found his way into great society, he
had failed to see Polonius burlesquing
Caesar on the stage, as in his proper
person Polonius burlesqued Sir
William Cecil. The strolling players
in Hamlet might be met at every coun-
try wake or festival, it was the direc-
tion in which the especial genius Of
the people delighted to revel.
There are many other topics ad-
verted to by Mr.. Froudo in his first
chapter, which form very delightful
picture of England, in the olden time,
many of the subjects being agricultur
al, are of particular interest here in
Vermont.
The entire work is re-published by
Scribner & Co., 654 Broadway, New
York, in several editions, both low
priced and also in all the bravery of
gilt edges and of elaborate binding.

How She Saws Wood.

Did you ever see woman under
take to saw wood? 1t is always a
little before dinner, when the pies
won't bake, and the potatoes absolute
ly refuse to come to a boiling point
and the only stick of wood is exactly
three inches too long. After vain at
tempts to prove the elasticity of mat
ter by putting two-foot three-inch
stick into a two-foot stove, she goes
out to the saw,horse, puts her knees
on the refractory stick in the very
way she had seen some men do. But
the edges Of the wood are sharp, and,
she takes it down again with a grow
ing disregard for appearances, puts
her foot Oh instead. Her hair never
fails to come down at this juncture,
and she has to stop and twist it into
a tight knot behind before beginning tc
saw. Here the saw commences a
frantic jumping and skiping on its
own account, and the feminine mind
being concentrated upon keeping up
the foot that is up, and down the foot
that should be down. until, in an un-
lucky moment, the center of gravity is
lost, the stick flies up, launches blow
at her nose just as somebody is going
by. She stops and pretends to be
looking for something, while dark
thoughts of divorce and separation
flash through her mind, and she VOWS
IN her innocent soul that she will nev-
er attempt to saw wood again if there
never is any dinner. But her pride
and her dinner are at stake, and all her
native obstinacy comes to the surface;
she will conquer that stick or die.
Fired by new fury, she succeeds in
saving two-thirds of the way through,
and breaking off the rest of tit is a
rotten rail-she goes into the house
to find the potatoes boiled dry, and
the PIE in a state of sudden uncertain
ty. The children come home from
school, and the husband from his shop,
and find kind of hushed solemnity
in the air and no pie for dinner. The
meridinal meal is eaten in silence and
bitterness of heart, and then the wife
of his bosom inquiries if she is expect
ed to take care of the stable and feed
the pigs, as well as saw wood. The
man says: "Hang it all, forgot" and
the woman drops her sarcasm and
breaks down in the declaration that
she n-v-e-r will do 1T again, new
er; but she will; she will do it to
morrow and the next day, and the
day after, for one of the things that
woman never will learn is that she can
not saw wood. .-DanJury Ne,cs.
