Accounts and the Treasurer of the State

GENERAL JACKSON'S WEEPER.

In orr remarks day or two ago upon the
forthcoming history of the United States,
by Mr.. Bryant, we spoke of the material in
the way of incident and picture which the
subject would afford. Reading the other
day of Jacksons visit to New York, about
the time of his first Inauguration, and just
after his wife's death, we were greatly struck
with the pictorial qualities of the story He
rode the length of Broadway on horseback
with long weeper, at that time in fashion
in Tennessee, tied around his hat and hang
ing the length of his back. We have here
just one OF those pictures SO very vivid and
important, of which American history is
full.
There is chapter of history contained in
the photograph. That he should have rid
den on horseback instead of in carriage in
dicates popularity at the time. The long
weeper tied around the white hat-a thing
tamiliaren enough in Tennessee, and yet strange
in New YOrk-recalls the fact that the var
ious parts of the country was not SO homo
genOus as they are at present Jackson's
truculent and defiant grief even had he been
conscious that his weeper was too long for
the fashion in these parts, would have vim
Dictated itself anywhere and before anybody
The weeper recalls the incidents of his wfe's
early life and his affection for her, both of
which exerted a profound influence upon his
life. 1t recalls the dlel with Dickinson, an
encounter which, it seems to ms, is one of the
most terrible on record.-Ne,C York Post.

ADVANTAGES OF CRYING.

A French physician is ont with long
dissertation on the advantages of grooming
and crying in general. and especially during
operations. He contends that grooming and
crying are the two grand operations by
which nature allays anguish that those
patients who give way to their natural feel
ings more speedily recover from accidents
and operations than those who suppose it
unworthy for man to betray such symp-
toms of cowardice as either to cry or
grcan. He tells Of a man who reduced his
pulse from 126 to GO in the course Of two
hours by giving vent to his emotions. If
people feel at all unhappy about anything
let them go to their rooms and comfort them
selves with loud booho, and they will feel
hundred per cent. better afterwards.
In accordance with the above, the crying
of children should not be too greatly dis
cOnraged. If it is systematically suppressed,
the result may be the St. Vitus' dance, cpl
leptic fits, or some other disease of the ner-
vOus system. What is natural is nearly
always useful, and nothing can be more
natural than the crying of children when
anything occurs to give them either physical
or mental pain. Probably most persons
have experienced the effects Of tears in re
lieving great sorrow. 1t is even curious
how the feelings are allayed BY free indul-
gence in groans and signs. Then let pa
rents show more indulgence to noisy bursts
of grief on the part of children ~ well as
persons, and regard the eyes and mouth as
safety -valves through which nature dis
charges her surplus steam.

The Isla nd Empire.

Originating in the islands which form
Great Britain, the British Empire has ever
exhibited a tendency towards insular pro-
prietorship. Thus Australia, New Zeyland,
Newfoundland, Prince Edwards Island, ia
maica Cape Breton, the Bermudas, BAHIA
mas, Windward Islands, Falkland Islands
these are some of the larger British island
possessions. To these may be added the
Shetland, Orkneys, Man, Sicily, Channel
Islands, Isle Of Wight, Heligoland, Malta,
st. Helena, Mauritius, Ascension, Ceylon
and Singapore, Labuan, and others of
lesser note. To these are now, per
haps, to be added the 154 islands of
the Feejee group, in the South Pacific,
of which sixty-tive are inhabited, and con-
corning which it may be said that, while
many are simply volcanic rocks, other many
are fertile spots capable of being made most
valuable to their possessor. The sovereignty
over these islands has been offered to Great
Britain by the present native King, and will
most likely be accepted. This will give the
British additional privileges in the Pacific
Ocean, besides the valuable territory OBJ
tanned. 1t is unfortunate that our foreign
policy has disabled us from gaining SINH
lar position in that direction. since our Pa
cfic trade is likely to become of vast i'm
pOrtance to our commercial system

HENNESSEY BRANDY.
A NEW DIVE INTO THE LIQUOR DEALERS
POCKETs-THE SECRETS OF THE TRADE.
From the New York sun. |

The New York liquor merchants dealing
in brandies, labeled and put up in boxes, are
about to test a case which, for years past, has
been the subject of an apparently intermin-
able dispute. Mr.. w. S. Osborne, Of SIS Pine
street, is the legal representative in this
country of several eminent French and Eng
llsh manufacturers. He has more than once.
with varying success, commenced suits
against dealers who were using the name or
the brand Of his clients. Within the last
few days he has procured iniunctions against
number of New York merchants for using
the names and brands of Hcnnessey and
Martel for the sale of brandies Of an avow-
eddy different kind from those manufactured
by these houses. Already, it is said, that
sixty dealers have been served with papers
preparatory to commencing suits fol dam
ages. The merchants have banded them
selves together to resist this action. They
say that the brands If Hennessey and Martel
have been so long in use that they signify
not the name of any particular produc-
ton, but merely certain quality of brandy;
they contend that the price at which the
liquor is sold makes it evident to the buyer
that 1T is not the production of the firm
whose name it bears.
A few of the dealers have consented to a
compromise, and paid heavily to avoid law
suits. Among these are Messrs Adams &
Co., of Front street, who paid Mr.. Osborne
$1,000, but repenting Of having done so, have
joined their fellows in resisting the attempt
to prohibit them from using the brands. The
motion to make the injunction perpetual is
to be argued this morning before Judge
Loew, in the Court of Common Pleas. The
defense intend to show that Hennessey and
Martel every year export enormous quanti-
ties of proof spirits Of grain from this coun-
try, and, after adnlterating it largely, send
it back with their labels and brands stamped
upon it to be sold here as first quality bran
dy. This being in itself fraud, the defend
ants counsel say that court of equity will
not interfere to protect the perpetrators
The affidavits to be read in court to-day
are peculiar. Mr.. William A. Pohlman, of
Francois & Co., has sworn that
John Martel was the proprietor of the Mar
tel establishment in 17lO, and Mr.. James n
Mccall, under oath, says that Richard Hen
nessey to his own personal knowledge, had
q large establishment in France in 1865.
Counsel for the defense think it impossible
that these Opponents are respectively 1854 and
1903 years old.

FRENCH ANECDOTES OF AMERICAN
LIFE

Among the most absurd instances of what
Europeans can be made to believe true of rs,
is once incident taken from La Vie Parl-
sienne, in which French writer claims to
give faithful portraiture of life in Ameri-
ca. The author tells his cOuntrymen what
happened in his own personal experience,
OH the occasion of a visit to young Ameri-
can lady, to whom he had been previously
introduced
"'One evening" says he, Il found Alice
alone in the parlor. Her cousins had start
ed ont for walk with their beaux. l was
surprised to notice that she was not in her
usual elegant toilette, and when asked the
reason she said she was warm and tired
"Let lis go to Hoboken, l proposed.
The fresh air from the river will do You
good
"'NO,' she replied.
"Will You 60 ont, and take some roast
oysters and lobster saladv
"'NO, l am not hungry
"'Well then, l suggested, let us go to
Maillard's and have an ice.'
"'No, l tell you,' she said. But wait!
If l shonld 60 out with Won what would the
whole affair cost, including the supper, the
theatre, and all the usual expenses
hardly know l answered; besides,
what difference does it make /! It's Of no I'M
pOrtance. Come on, please, and do not wor-
ry yourself about my purse
Just listen to me- said she. 'YOn would
spend about fifteen dollars. Now, instead Of
going out, let lis remain at home, and take
cup of tea, and yOu give me the fifteen dol
ars.'"
The writer not only vouches for the au-
thenticity of this story, but gives others
equally ridiculous. The Figaro reprinting
them, grave.y remarks that it is not proba-
BILE that such manners are universal in Amer
considering they are, how
ever, by no means uncommon.
