The late Sir r. A. Glass; whose death WAS an
nounced by cable day or two since, Was intl-
rnateIy connected with the progress OF tole-
g1apLy. Ho was born in Bradford England, IN
1920, and commenced life o. an accountant. In
1s45 ho became identified with Messrs* kuper
l. Co., wire-rope manufacturers, with whom be
carried on business many years. In 1859 he

aud afterwards to others. He then entered into
. partnership With another wire~rope manufac-
turer, and. ut the works Of the firm Of Glass d
Elltott, which was afterwards merged in the Tel
egraph Construction and Maintenance Company:

A Tale of Love.

One quiet day in ieafy June. when
bees aud birds were oil in tune, two
lovers walked beneath the moon. The
night was fair. 80 was the maid; they
walked and talked beneath the shade
with none to harm or IN axe afraid.
Her name WAS Sal, aud his wss Jim
and he was fxt and she was slim; ht
took 70 her and she took to him.
Says Jim to Sal. by all the snake,
that squirm a,nouG the brush and
brakes, I love yeu better'n buck whea,
cakes"
Says she to Jim, "Since you've be.
gun it, and been and gone aud done 1t
love you next to new bonnet"
Says Jim to Sal. MY heart you've
busted. but have always gals mis-
trusted
Says Sal to jim, II will be true; Il
you love me rs love you. no knife
can cut our love ia two"
Says Jim to Sal. Through thick
aud thin, for your true lover count me
in, I'll court no other gal agin."
Jim leaned to Sal, Sal leaned to Jim;
his nose just touched above her chin.
four lips met-went-ahem -shem!
And then-aud then-and then. Oh,
gals!-beware Of men in June, aud
underneath the silvery moon. when
frogs and june-bugs are in tune, lest
you get your names in the pspe. soon.

Statistics Of Intemperance.

The testimony of competent Judges
is decided in the opinion that the
use OF ardent spirits is hurtful to
health and long life, and the old-lash.
ioned calculations Of Nelson, in his
Vital Statistics, are confirmed by the
researches of the General Life Office.
According TO these estimates, the
probability of death among drinkers
between twenty-one and forty years
is ten times as much as among the
whole population; between forty -one
and sixty years, four times as much:
and among habitual tiplers over six
ty years Of age, twice as much as
among people at large. In England,
l65O-59, more than 5000 cases were
reported Of men who had literally
drunk themselves to death. Nelson
has given US his investigation Of Gill
tiplers, that out Of 1000, 58.4 die an
nually, while out Of 1000 inhabitants
Of the same age only nineteen die
Thus the mortality among drinkers
is three times as great as among the
community ct large. He has carried
out his calculations into all ages, and
shown how this chronic self-murder
marvelously diminishes the expecta.
ton Of ife. The highest point rs to
numbers is found in the years 1851
go, which report 1872 men and "A wo-
men Incorporate out of 10000, in
England and Wales, and which reck-
on the diminution in the rate Of
expectation of life accordingly. This
last statement is most startling, and
shows falling off in the probable
term of life for each ten years, from
twenty to sixty and upward, Of
respectively twenty eight, twenty.
two, seventeen, ten and FIVE years,
with fractions, and amounting to the
fearful percentage, respectively, Of
thirty-6ve, thirty.eight, forty, fifty
one, amid sixty-three per cent. of
probable life, as compared with the
population. Surely strong drink is
slow fire, and intemperance is volun-
tary madness and chronic suicide.
