COFFEE CULTURE.

1t is estimated that fully one-half of
the coffee produced in the world is grown
in Brazil /; 1000, 600 of bags are annual
" shipped, more than half this amount
coming to the United States. Each bag
contains 160 pounds, and is worth at Rio
Janeipo, twenty dollars per sack-total
proceeds $4O,000,0O0. The coffee is
raised chiefly in the southern part of
Brazil, in a mountainous belt about 200
miles in width, and the land upon which
it is grown is a yellow sandy soil, lying
upon the side hills where no drainage is
required, otherwise the natives would
never obtain the immense returns. The
trees are usually grown from shoots in
nurseries, yet the berry is sometimes
planted and made to produce trees.
About three years are required from the
TRANSFORMING to the beginning of bear
ing, but the trees have to reach the age
of five or six years before they are at the
height of their productiveness. At the
end of fifteen or twenty years they cease
bearing. The trees are evergreen, and
grow to the height of from ten to thirty
feet. The leaves are some five inches
long, and of pretty bright green color.
During nearly the whole of the year
white blossoms dot the foliage, but the
regular harvest comes twice every twelve
months. The berry, in its tender state,
is very pleasant to taste, and Is used as
food that is the pulpy part. When
ripe it becomes red, and later purplish
shade. What we have In our markets is
simply the pits. The berries grow about
as large as good-sized cherries, and are
about as palatable as wild plums. The
harvest is made chiefly by women who
carry baskets upon their breasts. and
often baby on the back at the same
time,

TWELVE HONEST CITIZENS.

They have peculiar jurymen in San
Francisco. In January Chinaman
named Wah All Toong was convicted of
murder. Recently, when a motion for
new trial was being argued, one of the
jurymen made an affidavit to disorderly
conduct in the jury-room, in which oc-
ours the following developments
"When they returned to the jury-room
one of the jurors produced bottle of
whisky and several packs of cards. The
jurors played cards, some for money, all
night, during which time there was one
bottle of whisky drunk. Afterward there
was a bottle of liquor of some kind,
which affiant took to be cocktails, intro
duced into the jry-room and drunk by
the jurors during their deliberations upon
the question of the guilt of the accused.
During the night there were two or three
bottles of liquor drunk by the jurors. In
playing cards crackers were used, with
which several jurors seemed to be album
dainty supplied, as a representative of
money. Money was also used by the
players. During their deliberations
affiant was frequently insulted and threat
ened with personal violence. 1t went so
far that at one time affiant was compelled
to call in the Deputy Sheriff for protec-

THE ExPREssMEN,s JOB.

We are told that the act increasing the
rates of postage on transient newspapers,
as well as on books, pamphlets, maya
zines and all other periodicals, pas a
6iunder of Congress. Very likely, for
Legislative laundering has been chronic
at Washington for ten years past. The
facts of the case are here In the last
hours of Congress the Postoffice Depart
ment attempted to accommodate or pro-
iect certain corporate interests Cthe ex-
press companies) and in trying to amend
the law relative to the transportation of
small packages of merchandise in the
mails, it doubled the rates of postage on
all third-class matter. Now, what claims
have the express companies on the gov
eminent above those of the people {?
Should the government accommodate
corporate monopolies, and aid them to
secure larger compensation for their la
Dor, and at the expense of the whole
people? Was the Postoffice Department
established as q convenience for private
business interests, or for the transmits
sion of letters, newspapers, books, pc
riodicals, etc.? These questions admit
of but one answer-the Postoffice De
partment was established solely for pub
lie convenience, and rs such it should be
administered.
There are thousands and hundreds of
thousands of people who cannot afford to
pay the present excessive tax ON transient
newspapers. They have been in the
habit of reading their papers and then
remailing them to their friends and
have also received like favors in return.
But under the new postal laws they are
debarTed this privilege-and simply on
account of its cost. Hence, the late
blunder of Congress is prohibitory
to newspaper exchange between indi-
viduals and families, and at the same
time an umwarrantable tax on public in
telligence. Thus obnoxious law will be
repealed or amended by the next Con-
gress, undoubtedly and while they are
about it, the experiment of compelling
publishers to prepay postage should also
be abandoned. To make the manufact-
urers of domestic goods prepay trans
portation fees would be unjust yet not
more SO than to compel publishers to
prepay postage on newspapers, maya
zines and other periodicals. = WoOnsocket

In our Southern States it is customary
to plant sunfowers to keep off the ague.
That plant absorbs the malaria, and so
protects those near it from the local
malady. The malaria of the Roman
marshes is about to find similarly easy
counterbalance. An organized attempt
has lately been made to thus do it by
means of Mother Nature herself. A
number of monks, from a monastery
situated in the Roman Campagna, have
been busy planting in the marshes the
Eucalyptus, or Australian gum tree.
Unlike the poison-emitting Upas tree of
Java, the Eucalyptus absorbs the foul
gases from the air around, rendering the
atmosphere pure and non-injurious to
health. This experiment of the Roman
monks is one that is well worth watching
with interest, as if the present attempt
proves successful, further operations on a
larger scale may perhaps rid the Cam
pagna of the terrible scourge to which it
has been SO long subject and, further
more, experience will have been gained
which will without doubt be turned to
account In other unhealthy regions.

Wien the pupils want to go out, they
must first obtain permission of the
teacher
Only one pupil allowed to go out at 6
time except in cases of extreme emer
gency.
ANY pupil staying out over ten minutes
except in cherry time-will be fined &
black mark.
Any boy placing a crooked pin on the
teachers chair, to jog his memory, or fol
any other purpose, will be severely
logged.
All apples, peanuts, filberts, molasses

ENGLISH PUDDIyGS.

The French call an Englishman
" Monsieur Rosbif," ON account of his
presumed fondness for roast beef, just
as the English used to call the French
Johnny Crapeau," on account of his
presumed fondness for frogs. But the
French used to denominate an English
man Johnny Pudding, believing no Brit
ain could exist without his pudding, and
there was one who was content to be
known to fame as H. NJ. de ", who,
in 1893, published book ON England
generally and English manners in par
ticular, which made a sensation among
the few who read it. We find him de-
scribing the English of Great Nassau's
time as huge eaters at dinner but mod
crate at supper" Gloutons midi, fort
sobres lie soir.n What most struck him
was "le pudding" 1t puzzled him to
describe it. "There are a hundred
different sorts of buildings" he remarks;
and he adds, pudding is a mamma
which is to everybody's taste.
In whatever part of the world you may
happen to meet an Enlishman, only
make pudding for him and he is salts
fed

ACCOMMODATING THE LADIES'

4CCOMMOD4TING THE LADIES'.
In New York the ladies have many
convenient places-ladies restaurants and
SO on-where they can lunch and refresh
themselves when weary with long
promenade. In London it is different
Every woman, there, who is obliged, by
the claims of pleasure or business, to be
out III London streets for several hours
together, or, perhaps, for the whole day,
knows what inconvenience she has to
suffer from not having any place to which
she can go for short rest, or for such
slight refreshment as cup of tea. They
propose, in that city, therefore, to get
up establishments expressly to accommo-
date the sex. Railway stations and con-
fectioners' shops are the only places now
open to women there; and the noise and
hustle OF the one, with the supercilious
behavior of the ''..young ladies" who
condescend to serve in both, add another
straw to that last burden of WEAKNESS
which is ultimately laid upon her. Res
taurants are not for her; they will not
give her what she wants-she probably
entertains vague fear that they are
improper, )" and a very distinct and not
entirely groundless apprehension that
she may be overcharged therein. The

accessible, for it is a "club" needing
election and subscription, and various
other miseries while the "Club for
Men and Women" chiefly makes signs of
existence in asking for subscriptions
So the poor lady is at her wits end,
weary, uncomfortable, and not knowing
what to do with herself. Railway sta
tions are not spread over all parts of the
metropolis-all of them have not accessi-
BILE waiting-rooms and cOnfectioners'
are but poor substitutes for place of
real rest. In view of these facts, the
thing proposed is a company to supply
the wants In question. A shop is to be
opened for the sale of small articles, such
as ladies' gloves, cuffs, collars, hair-pins,
etc. To the right of this shop there will
be an entrance door for ladies and chill
dren, who will pay small sum for the
use of the dressing, waiting and tea
rooms. To the left will be an entrance
for poor women and their children, for
whom free accommodation will be pro-
vided. All arrangements will be under
the control of women; and no men will
be allowed about the premises during
the time that they are opened.

THE CHAMPION sPELLER.

The spelling bee should buzz into the
Erie county PENN Jail, where,
it being reported that the Sheriff per-
mitted whisky to be brought to the
prisoners, the following communication
by them to the criminal Judge was con-
cocted: His honor is assured that the
suspected official always " fought against
any Speritule Licker What Ever to be
brought to any Persons in the jail, " but
that one party "got a Bottle of whisky
By the aid of Sum Outsider thro' the
winder which the Warden and Scherief
was Perfectly Innosent Of" Upon the
contents of which he "became So dis
ordly that the Scherrief had to lock him
in his cell, when he also abused the
Scherief in the most Shameful manner !;
then to git his Revenge he makes
charge against the Warden for allowing
Whisky to come in to the PRISONERS,
Which he knew nothing about"

One murky morning when the pregnant clouds
Their feecy offspring scattered DER the earth,
And every aspect of the field and grove
But told the story of the winters birth
Hid in the corner Of fence found
The brown and wrinkled mansion of the worm,
Suspended on rough and knotted post,
Bding the visit of gentler term.
And thus 1 unused upon the mystic life
Contained within that frail and narrow cell
Though dull and drear the days that intervene,
Though cold and silent be the lonely dell,
Though bleak and desolate the frowning hills,
Though frenzied tempests rage and rend the sky
A brighter and more joyful time will come
And bring the heavenly-tnted butterfly.
So, when misfortunes cloud our dearest hopes,
And life seems Swallowed by wintry gloom,
1t often proves the passive ehrysalis
From which a fairer life shall burst in bloom.

RIG PREMIUM ON CHILDREN.

The late Joshua Bailey, of Cohoes
Falls, n. Y, was a good and grand old
man. He was rich, too, and scattered
his thousands among his relatives, and
those whom he loved, in the same spirit
that generous man who likes fun sings
a handful of pennies into crowd of boys
to see the scramble. Joshua Bailey had
one child, a son, to whom he gave
$780, 900 on the day he was 81. In few
adopted an orphan girl, and at her mar
riage gave her $40, 900 to invest and $780,
600 more to make tour of Europe
Joshua had only one brother, who had
three sons. To these nephews he
promised to will all his property, and
two-thirds of it to the one who could
raise the largest number of boys. Here
was scramble for the boys. The
nephews lost no time in getting married.
W. w. Bailey, one of them, lives in
Waverly, Iowa, where he has made his
home over ten years. He is painter
by trade and has little property, and
he has five boys. When Joshua Bailey
died lately, his viii was found to be ac-
cording to promise. W. W. Bailey had
raised the most boys and got for his
share of his uncle's wealth $4,000, 900.
This is the largest premium on boys ever
known.
