Noses.

The number of people engaged in utterly
useless occupations is already so great that
it seems difficult to add to their number
with any pretence of novelty. Some hun
dreds of able bodied young men earn their
livelihood by travelling through the country
stick. Still other able. bodied young men
support5themselves comfortably by knock
ing ivory balls about with a stick on q
green table. Others make their living by
walking incredible distance in an impossl
Bile number of hours. Still others OF the
able bodied subsist by throwing such rash
persons az can be induced to wrestle with
them. The perennial slaughter of pigeons
is to many source of fame and fortune,
while more than one aspiring youth thinks
himself entitled to the gratitude and green
backs of his countrymen whenever he can
turn an indefinite number of somersaults
without breaking his neck.
The list of useless occupations might be
very widely extended, SO as to include, in
deed, many who are by no means aware OF
their own unmitigated uselessness. But,
for the present, we shall limit ourselves to
noting the advent of person who may be
said to have achieved the champion novel
ty in uselessness. He has discovered an
employment for his nose which, we are
convinced, the most sanguine admirers of
that highly ornamental and versatile feat
ure never dreamed of. At an early date in
| the history of our country 1T was pressed
into service as an organ of speech. Mozart,
in the well-known story, bafaed q rival
musician by using his own admirably. pro-
portioned nose to play upon the piano
forte. Many persons, as of late has been
once or twice agreeably exemplified, have
realized the extreme adaptability of the
feature to the purpose of being pulled.
But hitherto, so far as we are aware, no
one has hit upon the expedient of playing
| billiards with his pose
For one Mr.. Jefferson, who, as we learn
With certain throb of patriotic pride, is
an American, it was reserved to make this
happy discovery, with which he has lately
been enrapturing our British cousins. He
played in London, not long since, before a
large assembly, game of 500 points against
certain veteran Dufton," who used a
cue. Mr.. Jefferson struck the ball "with
the point or side of his nose," and in this
way "actually won the game" We may
expect, therefore, to SEQ "nose billiards.
erected into recognized "profession, u
until some emulous coantryman of Mr..
Jefferson, or, perhaps, that ingenious gen.
tleman himself, shall haply invent a me-
thod of playing the game with his ears-a
feature in which we should judge Mr.. JEFF
ferson and Mr.. Jefferson's admirers to be
literally provided.-N. Y. Times.

OLEoMARGARINE.-Thi new article of
butter (says the st. Francisco News Letter.
is now being openly manufactured in this
city. The novelty of the invention calls
forth much curiosity from citizens DESTROYS
OK testing its relative merits. Seeing is
believing, and all who visit the manufac-
tory in Sanscme street are surprised at the
neatness and simplicity of the operation.
Cleanliness is next to Goodness. Thus
this butter, surely, ought to be the best in
the market. Let all pref be removed
by going to see the ingredients from which
it is made. Clean suet from fat beef cat
tie, purified seven times by fire and then
churned with good sweet milk from the
dairy, gives now per day 1000 pounds of
choice family butter at 35. In few weeks
5000 per day will be turned out, at an ex-
pense, or rather, cost, of l2fc. per pound.
The profit is now large all the stearine
product 10 sold to the candle dealers.
Just remember that for zoe. you can buy
a two pound roll of this choice butter,
while dol. Csc. is the price of ordinary, or
rather choice old-fashioned made butter.
There have been one million pounds of this
article sold, which have given universal sa-
tisfaction. Iu New York two large establish
ments are fitted up for 20,O pounds per
day Massachusetts, New Jersey, Mary
land, etc., are in full blast of success.
California is now in a condition, with its
Oleomargarine butter, to defy ranches,
dealers, marketmen, aud supply the markefJ
with butter good in quality and easy bi
price.

Marriage Made Easy.

The news that q second European is

getting more married without fears of the
law against bigamy, renders volume by
Law-Iagore La,O Lectures, published by
Thacker and Sphinx, of Calcutta-just come
from the press, very Interesting, for 1t
treats at length on Mahommedan marriages.
The first 4" essential" prescribed for mat
rimony might seem to cynics to preclude
the venture altogether, for it is cody laid
down that "both the contracting parties
must be seue and discreet" But passing
over that initial difficulty, 1t would seem
as if marriage threatened a Mohommedan
of either sex on all sides, and that it would

What can be done to save our young

The influences that have six days in which

even q portion of the church buildings for
the purpose of a reading room and library,

all who may choose to enter, but it is pos

il be done at once. This is a practical
way of doing good that will meet the ap
probation of the better part of the Com
munity. Go, especially, to those who
employ young men in their stores and fac
tarles. If wise, they know that it is money
in their pockets to aid such organizations.

To see father treating his sons like
younger brothers, and to see sons coveting
their fathers company and conversation,
because they think him the wisest and
most agreeable man of their acquaintance,
is the most amiable picture the eye can
behold; it is transplauted self -love, as
sacred as friendship, as pleasurable as love,
and as happy as religion can make it.

Through trains on the Illinois Central Railroad
are now running regularly from Chicago and the
northern terminal points OF the Illinois Central to
the Gulf OF Mexico over the main line and its Mis-.
sissippi connections. The business Of the Southern
extensions, just completed, is increasing-the
earnings OF the line south OF Cairo during January
having been s4o5,Oo0. The earnings of the Jackson
and Mississippi Central lines in 1873 were, net,
81, 543, 900.
Messrs. Howes Co., OF wan street, have ini-
tated the business speciality OF buying from banks
and individuals INITIATED currency OF every de.
scription, from legal tender TO five cent stamp.
Advices have been received here from London
by Messrs. Drexel, Morgan & Co., that the SUBJ
scriptions to the 60 600 900 loan of the Baltimore

OF the amount. The loan is in the form OF sterling
bonds OF E200 each, bearing per cent interest
rom the LIST day OF January, 1874 and redeemable
In 1910. The proceeds OF the loan, together with
the other resources OF the company, are to be ap-
piled to the completion OF pending improvements.
