"GoNE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN"
Philadelphia Ledger-Death Column
Put away the well-worn cradle
Marked by Jimme's little thumbs
Put it in the garnet corner
Till another angel comes.
A Lafayette, Ind, mamma caressed her
.seventeen-year- old girl with slipper because
she wore q spiral elastic garter to church.
1t as such, while the old lady said she would
mt have any such nonsense in her family on
Sundays.
Good, kind, true, holy words dropped into
conversation, may be little thought of, but
they are like seeds of flower or fruitful tree
falling by the wayside borne by some bird fair,
haply thereafter to fringe with beauty some
barren mountain side, or to make glad some
lonely wilderness.
Great indignation is prevailing among the
citizens of Atlanta, Georgia, because, after
they had subscribed largely to dinner given
to the locomotive engineers who assembled
there in Convention recently, q railroad COM
pany contrived to have its name printed on
the invitation, and got all the credit for the
entertainment
In Sheffield, England, recently, workman,
who had Just been married in church, was met
ON his return by about fifty of his fellows and
received at their hands as q bridal gift fine
/. leg of mutton. He accepted it with thanks,
and soberly walked his way, a leg of mutton
in his right hand and his blushing bride lean
ing on his left arm.
The bold, bad men who trundled about
$50, 900 away from the Office OF the American
Express Company on Sunday when they should
have been at church, have all been gathered
in, and SO has the money. 1t turns out that
the most daring and adroit robbers heard of
hereabout in long time would have made more
money hauling packages in that rickety wagon
at twenty-five cents an hour than they realized
on that fifty thousand dollar JOB.
It is well known that the sons of Erin have
imported q good many funny bulls to this
country, but the last arrival in New York is q
sacred bull. Stolen from tribe of Indians,
who worshiped it, it was purchased from the
ness of the animal purifying the whole transac-
ton we suppose. Mr.. Fulger wants to sell it
to Barnum for $4,000. The bull is well
formed, save an excrescence resembling q
human arm growing from the left shoulder.
The Tribune refers to an ETHEREAL maiden
of Philadelphia and of delicate spinal Or
ganization, unto whom and which "physi-
clans was in vain" She suddenly developed
q liking for negro minstrel entertainments; q
constant attendance on the advertisements of
banjo and bones for two years, Sundays ex-
-cepted, cured her. The Tribune, celebrated
for its devotion to scientific nomenclature,
calls this remedy ga pill, an awful pill" when
in truth twas nothing but the "essence of
old Virginny."
London has had sensation in the letter
line. BY the Indian mail came missive ad-
dressed in q language with which the Post
Office authorities were not acquainted. They
sent it to the British Museum. No one there
could read it. but they excluded from consid-
Grafton ell the ancient tongues and the Chi
nese language. It was in none of those. At
the Indian Office it could not be read, but
there, also, many languages were excluded
1t was tried at Richmond Oriental College
with the same result Finally it was read by a
Telegu and addressed to the Queen.

Tho Crimean cemeteries in which are laid
the remains of the British warriors who fell
in the Cximean War have gone to wreck and
ruin very speedily. A Commission was ap-
pointed some time ago to investigate their
condition and report. This they did, and it
was found that $3.50 would repair all the
damage that time had wrought The report
was laid away and has not been &C ed upon.
The ruins had been so far looked to that an
sobelisk to the memory Of the Royal Artillery,
which had been broken in the middle, was re-
paired. But, as the broken portion was SO re-
placed that the north face had been turned to
the south, and growing eulogy, commenced
in English, terminated in Russian verse, the
restoration is of doubtful value. Considering
the insignifcance of the amount needed to re-
pair the cemeteries, it would seem that ingrat-
itude Is not the exclusive patent Of the Eepub-
