the ancient town of Meiningen, capital
of the Duchy of Saxe-Meiningen, in
Central Germany, is in ashes. The
loss on buildings alone is estimated at
three millions of thalers. Upwards Of
seven hundred families have been
made homeless, the distress among
whom is of course very great. The
dispatch gives no particulars of the
portion of the town which has been
burned. The principal edifice in the
place is the palace, the residence of the
dukes since 1851, containing collections
of paintings and a museum. 1t has
also a house OF assembly, schools and

The ReYiHRtG Era.i ;

Trade seems to be reviving about as
rapidly as could have been expected
under the circumstances, not with
feverish and unhealthy bounds, but
with a gradual and steady movement.
The ais inertia of the mass has been
overcome, and it is swinging slowly
into the current, presently to gain ac-
celebrating impulses. The first industries
es which feel the Vitalizng process are
naturally those which supply necessary
articles of wear for domestic use. These
are embraced in the dry goods trade.
AS this demand makes itself known it
involves a corresponding increase in
manufacturing industry connected
!.with that trade, and so through
various channels the Improvement

the employer but of the employed

Miscellany.
Scottish Anecdotes.

In very entertaining work, entitled
"Reminiscences of Scottish Life and
Character" from the pen of Dean Ram
say, We find the following humorous
illustrations:
''Some years ago, when it was not an
uncommon thing, even IN Scotland, for
challenges to be given and accepted for
insults, or supposed insults, an Eng
lish gentleman was entertaining party
at Inverness with an account of the
wonders he had seen and the deeds he
had performed in India, from whence
he had lately arrived. He enlarged
particularly upon the size of the tigers
he had met with at different times in
his travels, and by way of corroborat-
ing his statements, assured the COM
pany that he had shot one himself con-
siderably above forty feet long. A
Scottish gentleman present, who
thought these narratives rather ex-
ceeded travellers allowed privileges,
coolly said that no doubt those were
very remarkable tigers, but that he
could assure the gentleman there were
in that northern part of the country
some wonderful animals, and as an ex-
ample he cited the existence of skate
fish captured off Thurso, exceeding
half-an-acre in extent. The English
man saw this was intended as a sar
casm against his own story; so he left
the room in indignation, and sent his
friend to demand satisfaction or al
apology from the gentleman who had,
he thought, insulted him. The mar
rator of the skate coolly replies, 'Weel,
sir, gin yer freend will tax a few feet
aft the length O. his tiger, We'll see
what can be done about the breadth o
the skate.
"The parishioners of clergyman in
Scotland, in expressing to him their
aversion to the use of manuscript ser
mons, urged: what gars We tax up
your bit papers to the pu'pitY He
replied that it was best, for really he
could not remember his sermon, and
must have his paper. 'Weel, weel
minister, then dinna expect that Ue
can remember them.
"a late Duke of Athole had invited
a well-known character, a writer of
Perth, to come up and meet him at
Dunkeld for the transaction of some
business. The Duke mentioned the
day and hour when he should receive
the man of Law, who accordingly
came punctually at the appointed time
and place. But the Duke had forgotten
the appointment, and gone to the hill,
from which he could not return for
some hours. A Highlander present
described the Perth writer's indigna-
ton, and his mode of showing it by a
most elaborate course of swearing.
But whom did he swear at? was the
inquiry made of the narrator, who re-
piled, tOh, he didna sweer at ony thing
particular, but juist stude IN ia mi ddle
of Ia road and swoor at large.

The Gentle Life.

This is the beautiful heritage of the
well-born man and the gentle woman.
They may be poor or rich to-day, they
may be living life of leisure or toll
ing for their bread-all the same they
carry with them the grace, the care, the
gentleness, the consideration the know
ledge which we call intuition or in
stinct, which comes from generations
of culture and thousand qualities of
mind and heart which win social recog-
milton and bring happiness to the pos
sesser.
The accumulation of more money as
an inheritance for children is often
worse than nothing in their hands; it
deprives them of all incentive to per-
sonal effort and unfrequently proves
the means BY which they ride fast to
destruction. Money is worse than
nothing if the lives of the past and as
sociations OF the present have not
taught us how to put it to its noblest
uses.
But the order, the training, the ex-
per1ence of life are invaluable. They
form with education, key that un-
locks the recesses of the world, and be-
comes a power that no loss in stocks or
bonds or houses or lands can deprive
the unfortunate possessor of. They
make him the equal of the best, and
therefore at ease with all men. De
prived of leisure and of resources which
we would know how to appreciate, he
still finds within himself more than
others find outside of themselves. Out
wardly, his life is isolated; inwardly,
he holds communion with all that is
best and finest in art and society and
literature. His gracious and kindly
manners, which he retains in spite OF
poverty or wealth, show that he con-
sorts only with the noblest, whether
his dwelling here be hut or palace.

Cash Instead Of Credit.

People who buy for cash always buy
cheaper than those who buy on credit.
They buy also more closely, and select
more carefully. Purchases which are
paid for when they are made are limited
more exactly to the Purchasers wants.
There is nothing like having to count
the money out when the article is
bought, to make people economical.
The amount. of indebtedness incurred is
not much considered when the payday
is far off. Persons who do all their
business on a cash basis know just
where they stand and what they can
afford; consequently they find after
occasions for regretting, in a turn of
times, that they have INDUCED in this
luxury or that, which they would have
forgone had they seen what was coming.
Real wants are few and can be gratified
for cash; at all events they should be
limited to what can be paid for in cash.
How much of anxiety, how many sleep
less hours, how many heart burnings,
disappointments, and regrets would be
avoided if this rule were always strictly
adhered to.

Eccentricity OF Genius.

Alexander Dumas the elder persisted
in going into the kitchen to take a
hand at the spit, and Ingres was un-
happy unless he could play on the viO-
lin. But these occupations were not
pursued to the neglect of those call
ings to which they were born. III
Dumas made those ragOuts for which
he was famous, he at the same time
did much literary work. If Ingres
played a good deal on the violin, he at
the same time made pictures that will
not easily be forgotten. "The spider
in the ceiling" of Edmond About is
worse than either of these. 1t is poll
tics. For a number of years he was on
the brink, or padding about in the
shallow waters, of the political stream;
and this terminated three or four years
ago in the fatal plunge. The idea of
having a political part in the history OF
his country has pursued him with I'M
rest, and caused him, if he were not too
proud to admit it, good deal of pain.
Journalism was thought to offer the
best ladder to political preferment,a and
he embraced it. Here he was at dis
advantage. for half dozen journalists
in Paris can write as good if not better
leaders than he, although there is not a
man in France capable of writing such
words as he has written. 1t was
thought. when he and Francisque Sar-
cey became editors of the "XIN.
Siecle,n that with two such men the
success of the journal would be equal
to any of its contemporaries, which
turns out not to be the case. That
About's articles are able. and often
brilliant, few deny; but they fail to in-
fluence any large class of people even
in his own party.-tThe Galaxy.

Bachelors ana MatrimOny.

One reason why there are 80 many
bachelors is that young men in moder-
ate circumstances cannot afford to
marry. The extravagance of the outfit
and the expense of the bridal tour
frighten many a timid young man
whose bank account is not commen-
surate with his love. An example in
point is the case of Leavenworth
couple who, owing to parental objec-
tions, could not be married within the
boundaries of their native State. So
the groom, securing funds to the
amount of nine dollars, started with
his intended, her mother and mutual
friend for the friendly soil of Missouri.
The twain were made one. The fee to
the parson q. 50) and the railway fare
nsduced the exchequer to one solitary
dollar. A banquet (at an ice-cream sa-
loom still further diminished their
supply of cash, and the las. two nlckels
we're used in the purchase OF soda
water. Now, here was an expenditure
of nine dollars, and all for a wedding.
If any young man is willing to begin
his welded life on the capital men
toned by Ingomar, 1.-TWO souls with
but single thought, two hearts that
beat as one," let him start it; otherwise
be had better stick to his meerschaum
and buy poodle. Inter Ocean.

When the first artificial ice was
produced, in France, it cost SllO
ton, or 81 cents a pound. In looO,
Prof. Twining of Ohio patented pro-
cess in Europe, and succeeded in max,
ing, with a ten-horse engine, l,OOO
pounds of ice day, at cost OF a halt
cent per pound, or 80 per ton. But
the Columbus (Ga. Sun says that the
Columbus iron works have perfected
machines by which they can make su-
perior quality of ice in quantities only
limited by the capacity of the apparatus.
at a cost ranging from seventy
cents to two dollars per ton, the latter
being the maximum, or one-tenth oil
a cent per pound. 'The Columbus
process claims superiority in the cheap,
ness and durability of its apparatus, and
in the cheapness, r. Ility and simplicity
with which ice q kbe manufactured.
Distilled water is I'D, and the ice is
therefore purer ttlA-that cat from stan
ding ponds. These machines are being
built now with capacity of from 1000
to 90, 600 pounds day, and ranging IN
prices from 5000 to $4,000. They can
be used in the water at less expense
than the cost of cutting and storing the
ice made by nature, and are as good
for northern as southern latitudes.
