American Silks iIn Europe.

An American lads writes from Paris to Nessrs
Cheney Brothers, follows:
"Tbree years ago. or thereabouts l received

to give il hard usage aud when got hole in 1t

has behaved.
IL was exceedingly anxious that 1t should prove
success because il was American, and If have one
bump bigger than another, it is patriotism Inc
dressnakers universally denounced American SILK
as worthless. After several skirmishes with my
dressmaker. /, however, got my dress made, ana
put it on. For the first six months 1 didn't know
whether liked it not. Like all gros grams II
caught TIE dust But at the end Of six months
should not have known how to do without 1t.

il is still my best gown, and the only fnend nave
that have endowed with infalbity. In short
it is the most remarkable silk ever saw, and be-
cause il never wears out is why the dressmakerS
don't praise It, During these three years | have

Startling Scene In Court.

Either Mr.. Alexander, lawyer in
Chicago, has too tender a heart for a
lawyer, or Judge Jameson of one of the
Courts is too plain spoken for Judge.
At any rate the failings of one of them
caused an unusual scene in Court the
other day. There was case in which
Alexander was counsel and Jameson
was Judge. Alexander applied for a
change of venue for his client, setting
forth in the usual form that the affiant
did not believe he could have fair and
impartial hearing. At this the Judge
few into storm of wrath, accused the
witness of perjury, and asserted that the
counsel in the case, if not as guilty as
the witness, was at least chargeable with
subornation of perjury. Alexander,
deathly pale, arose and stating that 1t
was the first time in his life that such
an imputation had been cast upon his
character, fell fainting to the floor. He
was partially restored to consciousness
two or three times, but relapsed as often,
and was finally carried out of the Court
room by his friends thence home. At
last accounts he was still in comatose
state, and some doubts wers entertained
Of his recovery. The only word he has
uttered since he was attacked by the
Court is perjury" Mr.. Alexander
seems to have too acute sense of honor
to stand up before the Chicago Courts.
If he dies, his complaint will be called
disease of the heart" If he lives,
Judge Jameson's Court will be very
unhealthy climate for him.

Danger OF War In Europe.

On the Continent the sky is dark and
lowering, and it is impossible not to feel
that Storm is brewing, yet nobody can
tell in which direction to look for the
first flash. There are no distinct quar-
rels ready for fighting about, but the re-
latiOns of several important States ex-
hibit just the sort of feverish irritation
which may at any moment prccipitate
collision. II may be assumed that France
and Germany are bound to fight some
day; but France, though busy with mill
tary preparations, of which every trav-
eler through the country brings over
startling accounts, is not yet ready tor
war; and, on the other hand, it is diff
cult to see what more it can be possible
for the Germans to get out of another
conquest. There can be no doubt, how
ever, that Germany is just now in rather
an explosive condition. The people are
grooming bitterly under the strain to
which they have been subjected, and
which has still to be continued in order
to maintain the enormous armament,
which is deemed necessary as check
upon reprisals by France. At this mo-
ment Germany is probably the strongest
power in Europe; but the question is
how long it can maintain itself in this
position. 1t is at the highest point now,
but the cost of this supremacy is fear
fully exhausting. Every year the coun-
try becomes less capable of enduring the
drains upon it in men and money, and
every year, while Germany is thus at
the best only barely holding its ground,
other powers are growing rapidly in
strength and confidence. Hence the
idea which is supposed to have taken
possession of Bismarck, that the policy
of Germany should be to strike while it
is Mt the top of its strength, and while
other countries are weaker, and thus to
obtain an opportunity of lcssening its
military expenses bp paralyzing its chief
opponents while it still has power to do
30. 1t must be remembered that it Is
not merely France by itself that the Ger
mans have to reckon with in the future,
but also the Papacy and the Czar-two
very formidable opponents, who would
each be pretty sure to do all in their
power to help France against the power
which has already deficd the one, and is
suspected of similar intention in regard
to the other The European situation,
therefore, comes pretty much to this
that Germany, despairing of becoming
any stronger, and more than doubling
its ability to maintain its strength at its
present standard, would be glad Of an
opportunity of trying to cripple its an
tagonists ut once in such way as to Sc
cure for itself some amount of ease and
peace for good while to come. Whether
this opportunity will be found nobody
can say; but there can at least be little
doubt that Germany is bent on creating
an opportunity If il can, and that 1t will
avail itself of any that offers. II is no
wonder, then, with such state Of things
on the Continent, there should be doubt
and perturbation in the financial world.
Almost anything may happen before
spring.--London Correspondence Mem York

A Rich Church.

The salaries of twenty.eight prelates Of
the Established Church of England
amount to fl52,900 a year, or nearly
100000; but to this you must add $685.
900 for rs many deans. The annual
patronage attached to these twenty-eight
dioceses Is valued Mt G901 1865. This
patronage includes canons resident, arch
deacons, and other clerical snuggeries.
The value Of the real estate of the Es-
tablished Church of England may be
estimated from its revenue, which at its
lowest rate is G7,000, 900, or $50, 000, 900
annually. The Established Church Of
Scotland (Presbyterian) owns 1880
churches, educates l40, 900 scholars, and
raises fl40,000 annually fer home and
missionary purposes. Within twenty
years 100 parish chapels, costing $500, 900,
have been endowed and erected.

Thanksgiving Proclamation.

We are reminded by the changing
seasons, that it is time to pause in our
daily vocativns and offer thanks to Al
mighty God for the mercies and abun-
dance of the year, which is drawing to a
close. The blessings of free Government
continue to be vouchsafed to us, the
earth has responded to the labor of the
husbandman, the land has been free from
pestilence, internal order is being main
tanned, and peace with other powers has
prevailed. 1t is fitting that at stated pc
RODS we should cease from our accustomed
pursuits and from the turmoil of our
daily livesa and unite i'm thankfulness for
the blessings in the past and in the cul-
tivation of kindly feeling toward each
otherg Now, therefore, recognizing
these considerations, ], Ulysses s.
Grant, President of the United States,
do recommend to all citizens to assem-
BILE in their respective places of worship
on Thursday, the Goth day of November
next, and express their thanks for the
mercy and favor of Almighty God, and,
laying aside all political contentious and
secular occupations, to observe such n
day as a day of praise. In witness
whereof / have hercuntO set my hand
and caused the seal of the United States
to be affixed. Done at the city of Wash
ington, this the 9th day Of October,

United States the Doth.

How Pitman Cleaned His Chimney.

Mr.. Pitman's chimney had been foul
for some time, and when he mentioned
the fact at the drug store, Mr.. Squills
said he could easily clean it out by ex-
ploding little powder in the fireplace.
The idea seemed to Pitman to be good
one, and he bought almost ten pounds OF
powder in order to do the work thorough
iy at the first blast. The men were busy
graveling his roof that day, and just as
the Judge was about to touch off the
charge, a workman named Snyder leaned
over the top of the chimney to call to a
man below to send up more tar. Then
the Judge lit the slow match. The view
that met the eye of Mr.. Snyder as he
went up was fine one, embracing as it
did Cape May and Omaha, and Constan-
tinople and Baltimore, and the Sandwich
Islands, and when he got enough of
drinking in the scenery, he came down
in the river, apparently with the inten-
ton of exploring the bottom. When he
was fished out, he was glad to learn not
only that the Judges chimney was clean,
but that it would need about four cart
loads of bricks to repair the damages.
After this the Judge will clean his Aues
with brush fastened to clothes prop.

rubbed off with piece of flannel. Warm
water destroys the varnish.

IFall the membersof the legal fratern-
ity who have been engaged on the one
side or the other Of the scandal suits
take anything like an active part in the
trials, it is fair to presume that there will
be clashing Of legal acumen such as has
not been seen before in this country.
On Mr.. Beecher's side have been retained
William M. Evarts, and Judge Porter,
late of New York Court Of Appeals,
while rumor has it that Senator Conk-
ling is to sum up for the defense in the
Tilton-Beecher suit. Tilton's counsel re-
fuse to state who is to lead in his suits,
but common fame assigns that position to
Charles OCOnor. w. o. Bartlett, Mr..
Abbott Ga law author), Judge Fullerton,
and others are on the list, while there is
no doubt that Ben. Butler will take
care of Mr.. Moulton's side in that gen.
tleman's suits, if he don't "assist Mr..
Tilton's lawyers.

CAN 1T BE TRUE?-Within the last
few months a considerable number of
persons have called upon DIR. Walker, the
proprietor of the popular medicine
known as VINEGAR BITTERs, and as
sured him that, in their belief, his prepa-
ration is an infallible antidote for rum
and tobacco. The minute details which
have been furnished him forbid him to
doubt the accuracy of the statements.
This new claim of great remedy to the
confidence of the public will give a vast
and well-deserved impulse to its popu-
larity. Heretofore the BITrERs have
been recognized as pure vegetable
tonic and corrective, devoid of alcohol,
and thoroughly adapted to the cure OF
stomach and bowel complaints, nervous
disorders, bilious affections, muscular
diseases, and, indeed, majority of the
ailments within the reach of medicine
but if it will also cure the craving for
liquor and tobacco, philosophers, states
men, and theologians ought to unite
their voices in its praise. Can the good
news be true? 1t is easy to test the
question.

A NAN attracted attention in Troy

A MAN attracted attention in Troy by
his queer demeanor. He seemed TO see
something interesting in the buttons on
ladies' dresses, and in several instances
was impertinent in his close examine
tons. Finally he found n dress from
which button was gone. He seized the
wearer, pulled from his pocket button,
and compared IL with those left on the
dress. II matched. She was his pris-
oner. He was detective, and she had
stolen the dress.

JUDGMENT OF MUSICIANS Theodore
Thomas, the distinguished founder and
conductor of the famous Thomas Or
chestra," New York, ought. to know as
well as any one the opinions entertained
by musicians respecting musical instru-
ments. He declares that they generally
agree with him in regarding the MASON
& HAMLIN CABINET ORGANS as much
the best instruments of this class in the
world. 1t is not, therefore, surprising
that they are now largely exported to
Europe, commanding higher prices there
than the instruments of their best
makers.-COm.
