THE LAST OF THE MON
ARCHS.


The last Of the oaken sentinels
which for three-fourths of a centu-
ry have kept tkeir watch over the
grave of Gen. Shelby, has fallen
The City Fathers (!) of Bristol
have undermined it with their
picks and like venerable historian
of the days of our ancestors it has
gone down into the grave with
other gods of the past age. The
huge hump, which reared its incon-
venieDt form between the Prcsby-
terrain Female School building and
that beautiful and poetic Bastilc
where Serg't. Emmert keeps his
pinks of chivalry, has been levelcd
ia a more commodious level, and
we are promised that there shall
arise upon the spot a huge build
ing which shall be more eomely
and shall conceal the present ugly
school building. No longer shall
the fiery tongues Of heaven cleave
and rive those old forrest kings
but take their silent flights down
the angular surface Of the modern
rods which Doughty puts up fol-
little or nothing.
Farewell We gray sentinels of the
sladowy past.

From the CINCINNATI Commercial.
Cadet Smith.

The negro cadet, Smith, was dis
charged from West Point after the last
annual examination, for alleged def
cheney in philosophy. 1t is claimed
that this was a mere subterfuge to get
rid of him. He makes a strong case
for himselfin Fred. Douglass paper.
On the other hand, Secretary Belk-
nap refuses to reinstate hinl, believing
that he had a fair examination and
failed to pass. Tine New York Sun
sent a reporter to West Point to inves-
tigate the matter, and his report con-
firms the Secretary's view of the case.
Smith seemed TO be incapable of grasp
ing the principles of philosophy, and
failed to answer some of the simplest
elementary questions.

Number of Types in a Newspa-

The Poughkeepsie Eogle in an arti-
tlcle on, "how mistakes happen in
newspapers" figures up the number
or types used in newspaper the size
of the Eagle. at 800, 900, !. g., the num-
Der of bits of metal arranged and rear
ranged every day in preparing a news
paper of that size for the press. We
suppose few people think of the print
ing trade as one of the most exacting
and particular of all the handicrafts,
but 1t Is. In making type, variations
that might be allowed in the finest
machinery would render the type use
less. 1t is very rarely that type fur
nlshed by two separate boundaries can
be used together without a great deal
eff trouble, though they try to make it
after the same standard. We read once
in while of wonderful piece of cab

ten. twenty or fifty thousand pieces,
the maker of which has spent months,
or even years Of labor in producing it,
and people go to see it as q great curl

FULLY lifted piece of work of this kind
ever made does not compare with that
which the printer does every day, for
minuteness of detail and accuracy of
fitting. The man who does the first is
looked upon as an artist-a marvel of
skill, and if hundred of his pieces are
put in wrong side up or turned the
wrong way, it is not observed in the
general affect-but if the printer, in
fitting ten times as many pieces TO-
gether in single day; puts one where
another should be, or turns one the
wrong way. everybody sees it, and is
amazed at "the stupid carelessness of
those printers"
