"What? No scandal about our good Queen
Elizabeth I hope!'- rOld Play.
Every age has its vices, but ours has
more than it's share. IL has allsof its
own and nearly all Of those ages that
have precededH One of the worst of
these is the fondness for gossip and
| scandals fondness which is being
illustrated, we are sorry to say, In our
own city, and at this moment is almost
assuming the form of an epidemic.
Neither court nor cottage can escape the
viper calumny. It creeps in the palaces
of the kings, finds access to the hum
BILE home of the peasant ]; and often
nesties it's Shiny head in the bosom of
innocence and love. But a few months
ago there was an indecent and cruel
story going the rounds Of the American
papers. and reproduced in certain dis
reputable sheets Of England, seriously
affecting the honor of the Duchess of
Edinburgh. The duchess had only
been married some six months, and one
newspaper said that an event of some
interest to the royal couple was imme-
diately anticipated, which should have
followed more slowly and decorously,
In the ordinary course of nature !; and
another quoted with malicious zest the
words of Horatio to Hamlet
Indeed, my Lord, it followed hard upon"
The story was false, as subsequent
events proved, and yet, a scandal-loviDg
society had swallowed the entire calum-
ny without the preliminary preparation
Of greasing. There have also been
other scandals circulated, the victims
being in our own country and selected
from some of the highest and most re-
spectacle walks of life. There are some
OF the grossest In our W city.
We sadly need reform in this respect;
for the evil has gone to an extreme of
persecution and prescription which
rivals the atrocities of any other social
inquisition known to history. The
murder of a reputation is worse than
the taking OF life /; for what has a young
girl to hope for or live for when her
character is stabbed at every turn by
subtle and invisible shafts cunningIy
fixed in her pathway and glimmering
with poison? It is not necessary to say
this or that is SO. There is a language
known to the initiated scandal-monger
which is far mora fatal because less re-
Sponsible, and because il affords the
broadest area for the play of the imagi-
nation of the malicious and evil-minded.
Swift satirized the class with deserved
severity, saying, in n OF his bitter
epigrams, that they could
read a nod, a ehrug, 4 look,
Far better than q printed book;
Convey a libel in d froWn,
And wink q reputation down;
Or, by the tossing of q fan,
Describe the lady am the man!
And another poet, who suffered by
the same brood Of ravilers, tells how
some hope things might not turn out as
they fear ; how some swear they can
not believe the half of what they hear;
how some look perplexed, while others
look profound, and others pity with
regret. 1t is this mendacity of
hints that leaves the most ranking and
ineurable wounds. Louisville Courier

Eject of Nervous Influence on the
Heart.

Experiments made with much care
and precision show that the circulation
of the blood is accelerated or retarded
by nervous influences in a manner which
before was only vaguely suspected.
More recently the Investigations of this
subject by NJ. Marcy, in relation to the
beating of the heart, and it's connection
With muscular exercise, fever, and 7io-
lent emotions of anger, fear, joy, ETC.,
ali of which, he says, exercise q direct
action on the peripheric circulation,
have excited peculiar interest. M.
Marcy does not consider variations in
ths beating of the heart to be due to
any change in the activity of the heart
itself, but says it is certain that chances
In the general circulation take place
under the influence of moral emotions,
The face becoming red, OF pale, etc.
These well-known changes most entail
in the frequency of the beat
in&s of the heart, SO that the power
VII CHI moderates or accelerate the con.
fractions of the heart, he thinks, can
BIO no other than the co~ntractility of the
vessels of the whole body by nervous
agency.

The English Five O'clock Tea.

-
Our British cousins have a fashion
able "ive o'clock tea," which is be-
coming excessively the " elegant thing"
in London. The entertainment is of
many kinds. There is first the informal
gathering, which only necessitates the
production of more cups and saucers to
supplement the hostess's usual ante
prandial rejection ; second, the meeting
of ten or twelve guests invited specially
to meet each other third, the larger
assembly, when the lady on
her invitation card that she will be "At
Home" for q certain number of days !;
! fourth, the tea devoted to "Amateur
Music - and, lastly, the tea which is
merely a day instead of q night recep-
ton. For the casual five o'clock tea
| but little or no preparation is required.
Intimate friends find the lady with her
two-tiered tea table by her side, the up
per shelf bearing the silver teapot,
cream jug, sugar basin, hot water ket-
tie, and one or two cups and saucers /;
the lower shelf has a plate of thin bread
and butter, q cake, and the reserve
cups. A harlequin set is considered
prettier than one of which all the cups
are alike those saucers which have a
sort of fan shaped addition for holding
a piece of cake or bread and butter
when convenient. The second enter
tainnent differs somewhat the scene is
changed from the boudoir to the draw
ing room, and th3 tea is placed on a
larger table. If the hostess has no
daughters, she generally gets some
young lady to preside over the tea
table, go as to leave her at liberty to
entertain guests. The use of q white
tableeloth, though not absolutely I'M
known, is decidedly unusual. The
tables which have flaps that fold down
so that when not in use they stand al
most fiat against the Vail, are the most
CONVEX lent for the purpose, as it obvi
ates the trouble of moving the things
off q table in ordinary use. For the
third there are two methods one like
the preceding, only using q larger
table and having two or three young
ladies to assist in dispensing the tea, or
else to have q long narrow table across
the end of the back drawing-room. and
let two maids be in attendance behind
it. This supposes a larger party, and
therefore ices and claret cup should be
provided. In, summer, of course, straw
berries and cream find a most appro.
pirate place on the tea table.
