MISS sLUMsps ROY.

Even the best Sunday school schol-
ars sometimes are so interested in
earthly things that the spiritual mean-
ing of their lessons escapes them. Now
there was Miss Slumm's smartest boy.
They were estudying the history of SOL
oInon, and Miss Slumm wanted to
show that, in spite of all his splendor
and wisdom, his lapse into idolatry in
his old age left him without the pure
religious devotion needful to, perfect
peace. So Miss Summ said, And
now, William, Solomon had more wis.
dom and knowledge than any one else
in the world, he was far richer than
any other king; he had built the most
magnificent temple that was eve= seen;
he lived in gorgeous palace he had
fine clothes, and horses and chariots,
and thousands of sevants, and all 9TH
er monarchs of earth looked upon him
with admiration and envy. Aud vet
he was not perfectly happy. He need
ed but one thing to give him absolute
contentment and felicity, and what do
you think that was, WilliamP William
paused moment, then suddenly ex.
claimed. Il knowp Miss Stu ann said,
And what is itr why, he wanted to
learn to whistle on his fingers Then
William all at once, weat down to the
foot of the class. He had been put
ting in his spare time, the preceding
week, praeticiDg that musical accom-.
plishment, aud thought Solomon must
have had yearnings in the same direc-
tion. .,.t '..-.. .ffF a-'l ...rg.

HIPPOPHAGY.

II is now nearly twenty years since
the use of horseAesh was advocated in
France by M. GeofIrey de St. Hilaire.
Pamphlets were written on the subject,
and banquets, in which the horse
figured upon the table instead of in
the stable, were given. After a while
the notion of hippopllagy extended to
England, and butcher.shops for the
exclusive sale of horsehesh we're es.
tablished. But the thing did not seem
to take the fancy of OK fed John Bull,
and we have heard but little about ii
of late. Some two or three years ago
the leading spirit among the hopdpha-
gists of EnglaHd, Professor Gamgee,
visited this country partly with view
of disseminating the doctrine of hip
pophagy throughout the land, but he
met with little, encouragement, aud the
laugh of the horse mayuyet be heard
from the stall. But in France the no.
tion of hippophagy still maintains.
In little French paper we find an ac-
count of a banquet that took place
short time since at the house of NJ.
Decroix, N Paris, and which was at
tended almost exclusively by English
and American residents, including sew.
eral7ladiesg The dishes were exclul
sively prepared from horseflesh, in.
cluding soup, boiled horse. horse sau.
sage, roast horse, potatoes fried in
horse fat salad prepared With horse
oil, and good many other equine DEL
icacies too numerous for mention here.
How often the guests atthis sustaining
Banquet had to slaeken their girths IS
not stated. The fact of AMERICAN la
dies having assisted at the banquet is
suggestive. Woman is bound to have
her way here, and we may all be hip.
pophagist before we know what We are
about.

IN ONION THERE Is STRENGTH.

am quite ashamed to take people
into my garden and have them notice
the absence of onions 1t is very mark
ed. In onion Is strength, and a gar
der without it lacks flavor. The on.
ion in its satin wrappings is among
the most beautiful of vegetables, and
1t is the only one that represents the
essence of things. 1t can almost be
said to Have q soul. You take off
coat after coat, and the onion is still
there; and when the last one is re.
moved, who dare say that the onion
itself is destroyed, though you weep
over its departed spirit? If there is
ANY one thing on this fallen earth that
the angels in heaven weep over more
than another, it is the onion. know
that there is supposed to be prejudice
against the onion, but think there is
rather a cowardice in, regard to it.. IN,
- i doubt not that all men and wo-
men love the onion; but few confess
their love. Affection for it is conceal
ed. Good New Englanders are as shy
of owning it as they are of talking
about religion, Some people have
days on which they eatonions, " hatyou
might call retreats, or their "Thurs.
days The act. is in the nature of a
religious ceremony, an Eleusirian M vs.
terry; not a breath of it must Jet
abroad. On that day they see no com
pany l$-they- deny the kiss of greeting
to the dearest friend; they retire with,
in themselves and bold communion
with. one Of the most pupgent and PEN
etrating manifestations Of the moral
vegetable world. Happy is said to be
the family which can eat onions to-
gether. They are for the time being
separate from the world, and have a
harmony of aspiration. There is a
hint here for the reformers. Let them
become apostles Of the onion; let them
eat and preach it to their f3llows, aud
circulate tracts of it in the form of
seeds. .tf"af
In the onion is the hope of univer-
sal brotherhood. Ef.All men will eat
onions at all times they viii come in
to universal sympathy. Look at Italy.
L hope | am not mistaken as to the
cause of her unity 1t was the Reds
who preached. the gospel which made
it possible. All the Reds of Europe,
all the sworn devoters of mystic Mary
Ann, eat Of the common vegetable.
Their oaths are strong with it. 1t is
the food also of the common people of
Italy. All the social tmosphere of
that delicious land is laden with it.
Its odor is practical democracy. In
the churches all are alike; there is
one faith, one smell. The entrance of
lletor Emanuel into Rome is only
the mpoussproclamation of unity
which garlic had already accomplish.
ed; and yet we, who boast of our
democracy, eat onions in secret

Cleopatra Pears AN aunt Of Mr..
Chorley's, the musical critic, was once
at country house to which party of
guests CAME Unexpectedly to dinner.
The hostess, we are told, went hither
and thither in despair. Somehow or
other the material for the entertain
mene was got together, or represented,
one thing only being wanting-the
dessert. Nothing was to be found save
a basket of hard, green pears, set
aside for baking. For better for worse,
however, by the whimsical lady's coun-
sci, they We're presented. When she
saw them coming, she cleared her
throat. and in audible voice said TO
her hostess, at the head of the table:
. "Are not those the famous Cleopat-
ra peais?" '".- -,
She used dryly to add, in latter
years, when she told this aneedote:
"My dear, after that, no one thought
of refusing them. The dish was clear

Prince Bismarck, according to
GalignaDi, has just met with check.
He had undertaken to obtain the adop.
tion by foreign powers Of German as
the language of negotiations. He had
not hitherto endeavored to impose it
officially, but had confined himself to
semi. official propositions by his agents.
He has just himself commenced the
struggle. He sent note in German
to Prince Gortschakoh, who replied in
Russian. As the Emperor Williams
Prime Minister does not understand
that language, he had to send for a
translator, and the opposition journals
state that he was much irritated at the
result of his experiment.
Why is coal the most contradictory
article known TO commerce? Because
when purchased, instead Of goiug TO
the buyer, it goes to the cellar.

WHAT PLUCK DID.

gOne Of the, illustrations of what
pluck, tact, ahd energy will do for a
man is givensin the history of Samuel
Bryan, of Cadiz, Ohio. Bryan enlist.
edsat the opening Of the war as
drummer boy, being twenty years old.
In a short time he secured discharge,
and in little while thereafter a situas
tion as- clerk in the Sixth Auditors
office in Washington. Here he was
placed IN charge Of the British mail
desk. Becoming acquainted with the
foreign mail service, he was struck
with the fact that while japan had in
troduced our internal revenue and ag.
rlcultural system, she had made no
effort to establish postal department.
lie determined to make an effort TO.
ward doing that himself He had an
Interview with Minister Delong, met
with encouragement, and finally hav.
ing secured temporary situation on
a steamer playing between San Fran
cisco and Yokohama, left for Japan.
He arrived in the latter city with but
twenty-five cents in his pocket, and
met with many difficulties in his work;
but finally the government organized
a postal bureau and made Mr.. Bryan
special commissioner to negotiate
treaty with the United States, Great
Britain, France and Germany, at
salary of $4,000 per annum, all ex.
pensis horne, and assistants and clerks
to help him in his work. Mr.. Bryan
has accomplished his mission, so far as
this country is concerned, and sailed
for Havre ON Saturday last. Though
not the nominal he is the real bead of
the postal department for Japan, and
is very properly and naturally elated
with his success.

A Nashville printer recently had
some very bad manuscript copy to set
up. Every word needed close study
before its meaning could be guessed at,
but at length two or three words came
in succession, which it was quite i'm
possible to deoipher, All hands in
the office tried and failed. until at
length the printer, in despair, set up
"eOpy-books ten cents each, and cOa-
tinued the work, afterwards sending
the proof to the author for correction.
The hint was taken aud the author
employed an amanuensis.
