The NeHsnaner Press.

The address delivered by Charles E. Smith, of Albany, before the association of editors and publishers at Lockport, N. Y., was an exceedingly able and interesting pa per. We publish below an extract, pre- senting his ideal of journalism
 And so, sensible of the great power and mindful of the high responsibility and duty of the press, we should ever keep before us its noblest ideal. Its first function is to gather and present the news but supple menting this and beyond this there is for it a broad, rich and glorious work. It should be attractive with every grace and charm, so that it will be not merely necessarybut welcome visitor in every household. It should be radiant with bright and cheery views of humanity and society. It should gather not merely the current intelligence ot the hour, but the gems of thought and knowledge which, placed in its setting, will make it a rich treasure and choice library. It should preserve a pure moral tone, re membering that, having won it's way into fence there to taint the young and poison and make it more fruitful and beautiful to all who fall within its influence. It should put itself in sympathy with the best i'm pulses and the most progressive spirit of the community and should be the friend of every well-directed movement to advance art, refinement, culture and general educa- ton. In word, it should seek to be power for just principles and honest administration in the State, and minister of every pure purpose and sweet grace and wholesome ln- fiuence in the home and in society"
 If we could all of us reach and live ur to this noble standard of journalism, "the world would be the better for it."

ParIsian Goodness.

Lucy H. Hooper, writing to the Phila- delphia Press from Paris, says: A very audaciously planned theft came near being successfully carried out at the Chatelet Theatre the other day. This theatre is at present unoccupied, but the dramatic troupe of the Porte St. Martin are to commence series of representations there in a week or two, so preparations are being made for the speedy reopening of the House. The direc- tor arrived there one morning about half past ten o'clock, when, happening to look towards the roof, he saw there party of workmen busily employed, sight whereat he, was much astonished, as he had not heard of any repairs being necessary to that part of the building. He went up at once to see what they were about,-but the moment he made his appearance every one ot the pretended workmen took to their heels and disappeared by various openings into the interior of the building, from whence they readily made their escape. Farther investi- gation showed horse and wagon waiting in the street below, while in the wagon had already been placed about four hundred pounds of sheet-lead, which had been strip ped from the roof. Had not the director happened to raise his eyes as he approached the theatre the thieves would soon have torn off all the lead covering, and would have escaped with their booty, for as everyone in the neighborhood knew that Le Chatelet was being put in order preparatory to its being occupied by the troupe from the Porte St. Martin the sight of bevy of workmen on the roof would have created no surprise. But enly imagine the audacity of the scheme, which had to be carried out in broad daylight and in one of the most public places in Paris"

DepredatiOns m the Dardanelles.

No slight consternation has been caused in the province of the Dardane1les owing to its sudden invasion by band of Greek brigands. The robbers, twelve in number, landed on the coast of the Gulf of Ad ramytti, and commenced operations imme- diately by an exploit which, it is stated, has caused great sensation all over the coun- try. At Talmash in the district of Aivad jik, lives wealthy valonia merchant, who, for the purpose of trade, keeps by him a large sum of money. One night his house, which is in the centre of the village, was surrounded and forced open by the brigands, who completely gutted it of all its valua- bles and then retired with their booty unmo- tested by the villagers, who were too thun- derstruck by the audacity of the deed to offer any intolerance to the retreat of the gang. Since then the brigands have con fined themselves to plundering shepherds and millers for commissariat purposes. In The vali Ibrahim Pasha had by the latest accounts sent all the zapieths who could be spared, and at the same time ordered the caimakams of Aivadjik and Ezine to take the field with bands of armed peasants, and to SCOUT the country until the brigands are killed or captured. To add to to the tur- moil the Circassian immigrants, after giving no end of trouble by refusing to accept the waste lands which were offered them, and insisting on appropriating cultivated fields belonging to the native peasantry, have be- gun to steal the horses. Several of them have been caught in the act, and hopes are entertained that no false notions of the du- ties of hospitality will this time prevent the
 authorities from making a severe example
 of the offenders.

In an Ice-Chest.

Of all places in the world to select as a retreat trom the scorching heat of a June day, says the St. Louis RcpubM- can, an ice.chest IS perhaps the last, and yet George Straubel, formerly bar keeper at the Apollo Theatre, did it. He had been suffering to some slight extent from collie, and was also perspir- ing profusely. Do what he would, he could not keep cool. The more he tried to keep cool. the more he per spired, and at last the brilliant idea struck him that brief retirement in the ice-chest would set him up all right. It did the lager good, and why shouldn't it do George Straubel good, too. So he got into the ice chest, and very soon felt cool enough. The precipitation was checked, and when Straubel got out of the ice-chest the precipitation didn't return. On the contrary, he couldn't get warm, and he continued to get colder and colder until in very short time George Straubel was not only as cold as death, but was dead. He had cooled himself off with ven- geance, poor fellow, and all for want of knowing that the human system is not 8 water melon or keg of lager.

Ideal Wives,

Ideal wives, according to an Irish writer, are of low stature and extremely fair. They are soft and gentle in man. ner and slow of motion. They have blue eyes, golden hair, rich mezzo-so- pranno voices, and wear moderate dress improvers. Their hair and it's color are their own and they fear strong men, but like to look at them from windows, balconies, carriages, and other places of security. They are a trife unhappy, and have not been married to their first love. They cannot sew over we'll, but they have a positively mad dening way of leaning over the backs of chairs while they are asking their husbands if they shall wear blue or pink ribbons. They have no mother living. They care little for going into society. They never desire to obtain the good wishes of other men, save when their husbands interest is to that effect. They are not painfully clever musicians, but they know some sweet simple airs, and sing those at evening by the open window. They are liable to be defrauded by the servants, and are imposed upon by tradespeople. They regard their husbands as supreme arbiters in all matters. They would stay as they are or fly to New Zealand with him, as he desired.

Afflicted Horses.
devoured

The horses in New Orleans are affect ed with charbon, and the Picayal'ae has discovered an infallible cure. As it may be found of use here, it is ap- pended: tfES
 "With sharp instrument make sev- eral incisions in the affected part take blistering ointment (flies), which moisten with coal oil, and make plas- ter large enough to cover the whole sore. Suffer this to remain until copi. ous suppuration is produced. Mean while, drench the animal with spoon whisky. Should the swelling not di- minish, or there be no apparent relief, drenching with the above described mixture may be repeated thrice within n five hours, allowing due interval. Keep the sore we'll cleaned, and apply coal oil freely"
 Suppuration is the prime desider- alum. By that means the poison is best extracted from the system. To in- sure suppuration, it is customary touse setons- strings of cotton or hemp-run through the swellings by means of 8 red-hot needle, 1-16 or inch iron, first saturating them in cantharadin, or, if that be not available, in hartshorn. A horEe that would not be cured by such remedy as that must, indeed, be 8 most perverse animal, and beyond all redemption. There is simplicity, di- rectness, and calm determination about it, that savors of practical knowledge :; aHd although it may require nerve to execute it, still there is every probabil- ity that it's execution will produce good roeu1ta

A War0 on the Birds.

With so many opportunities for ob- servation, says an exchange, 1t seems strange that any farmer should continue in ignorance of the real value of birds. Nearly every farm from which they have been banished has suffered from the ravages of vegetable-eating insects and worms. Among the birds which are known to subsist to 8 considerable extent on insects and worms, are owls, cuckoos, woodpeckers, humming-b -blrds, ,swifts, whip-poor-wils, fy-catchers, blue- birds, titmice, and nut-hatchers, creep CTS, wrens, orioles, swallows, snipe, crows, rails, and robins. Many farmers deliberately shootand otherwise destroy these birds, under the conviction that they are doing themselves and their neighbors an important service. Be- cause the robin, during two months of the year, occasionally helps himself to 8 little of the fruit and seed which he has done so much to protect, the or chard-keeper sets him down among the nuisances, and resolves to exterminate him. He never pauses to consider that something may be due to him for, four months of continued labor in swallow ing insects and worms that, were they to live and multiply, would destroy hundred times more vegetables and copartnersh1p. .s.:.- s-. .....r ,e..... Tho oriole is also unpopular, for the reason that he takes pay for his labors in similar manner. The crow has brought himself into bad repute through But to those who uc cderstand his ways he has, nevertheless, been found of much value as an auxiliary in ridding fields of voracious insects and worms. A recent writer on the subject says that for five or ten cents 8 year he can pro- cure enough tar to apply to all the corn he plants, and that the odor effectually prevents crows from pulling or destroy ing it. Here is an extract from his letter 2" Year after year plant corn 1; the crows visit the fields, but they come not to destroy the corn is unmolested; i; the crows are preservers instead of des- troyers of the crop. They get the worms and leave the corn. They are friends, not enemies, of s the farmer now" Prof. Riley, the State Ento- mologist of Missouri, some time ago made very strong argument in favor of birds at an Agricultural Society meeting. The quail, he said, devours the chinch-bug in immense numbers. The black-capped titmouse, the codling moth the yellow-billed cuckoo, the larve of the white-marRed tussock moth the kingbird, the rosebug and the Baltimore oriole, the tent-caterpil- lar. As an illustration of the value of birds, he related an experience of his own with silk worms, which he had kept in an osage orange hedge out-of- doors. Those that were protected with netting had spun their cocoons, while those without such protection were all devoured.

A Russian Temple.

A writer on St. Petersburg says: "The Kazan Cathedral ranks next to St. Isaks and is kind of miniature St. Peters. The screen, as well as the massive balustrades, is of pure silver, the latter, which are very handsome, being an offering from the Don Cossacks after the campaign of 1872. A sprinkling of devout people were kneeling on the polished floor, lowing their fore heads down to the cold marble, and praying before the miraculous image of the Virgin, brought from Kazan in the fourteenth cen tury-a very dusky lady, but the jewels with which she is decorated are said to be worth G15,OOO. In the centre of the crown there shines an almost priceless sapphire, 8 beau- tiful stone of the richest hue. The church itself, which is erected upon piles, the foun- dations alone costing vast sum, contains some fine porphyry and Finnish granite With the exception of the cofined saints, no monuments are allowed in Russian churches. At short distance from the Kazan Cathedral stands very picturesque object, the Riza, an open shrine, glittering with gold and silver, and before which colored lamps burn night and day. Near at hand stands priest in embroidered robes, with plate in hand, who bows his head to receive the copeks of the worshippers, who interrupt for a moment the busy days rou- tine to utter prayer or beg a blessing upon some undertaking"

An InfantiIe AccOmplice.

Two women, named Mathilda Davis and Mary A. Nichols, have been arrest ed in Philadelphia. under the following circumstances: A lady riding in a street car noticed two we'll dressed women sitting next her, one of whom carried baby and the other lap dog. The one having the child sat next the lady in such position that the infants feet kicked against her pocket. While the kicking was in progress pocket book containing $1O4 was stolen, and the women left the car. The next even- ing the two prisoners, together with the baby and dog, entered the store of Mrs. Siegle, on Spurce street, near Fourth, and made trifing purchase Mrs. Siegle admired the child, and the woman having it in charge stood in such position that it's feet kept up a drumming on the dress pocket of the proprietress of the store. After the defendants left, Mrs. Siegle discovered that her pocket had been picked of $4OO. The lady who had her pocket book stolen in the car could not identify the prisoners. Mrs. Siegle, however, fully recognized them. The accused were held Tn $1, 200 bail each to answer at court.
