Notes on Weights and Measures.

Our American bushel is the same as
that which in England is known as the
Winchester bushel. An imperial Eng
lish bushel is equal to 1.03152 Winches-
ter bushels, difference of about three
per cent In the London markets grain
is quoted by the quarter, equal to eight
imperial or to 8.25216 Winchester BUSH
els. In Liverpool grain is marketed by
weight instead of bulk, using the GENITAL
OF 100 pounds. Flour, for some reason,
is bought and sold in England in parcels
of $50 pounds. In London maise is
quoted in quarters Liverpool, in par
GELS of 480 pounds. American -four is
the only -four marketed in barrels of 196
pounds each +; California barrels contain
200 pounds, or two centals, each. Some
times -four imported into the United
Kingdom is designated by hundred
weights (cwt. }, each of which is one
twentieth of the (" long" ton, equal to
twenty centals, 1000 pounds, is univer-
sally used. East of the Rocky noun
tains both the long and the short are
used, but for different measurements.

who had unwittingly been the cause o.
their long estrangement.
"After you left Agra" continued the

back to India. This time / saw no ser

only knew what the feeling of utter
hopelessness was. could hardly real
ize that I was free when the fort was
taken. But 60 on with your story, Viii

"Well, Millingsby, when he had re-
covered his senses little, began talking
of his wife and when heard her name
and birth, the truth suddenly flashed
upon me and though it was impossible
to account for the substitution of my
name for his, felt sure that the mistake
had arisen from the similarity of sound,
and that you, Indiana, had been equally
deceived with me. OF course hurried
home at once sand 1 will own that my
first impulse was to meet you with re-
proaches; but your exclamation as you
entered the room disarmed me-"
All was now Joy and happiness at

we ought to call her, Mrs. Millingsby,
was in a state of ecstasy at her hus-
bands return, though most penitent for
the delusion which had caused Col. Will
loughby and Indiana so much misery.
Surgeons confession, although not
necessary, as it turned out, was satisfac-
tory, as clearing up the mystery of the
story and the wretched man, during
the brief remainder of his life, was
nursed with tender solicitude by her
whose happiness he had so nearly ship
wrecked, but who was now, thanks to
the guiding of merciful Providence,
after long trials, given back to her faith

An Eccentric Editor.

Some personal "reminiscences of Mr..
Bloss, the well-known editor of the Gin
cinnati Elnuirer, are furnished by that
paper. At the time of the sad accident
which resulted in his death, Mr.. Bloss
had been connected with the Enquirer
twenty-four years. During the last few
years of his service he was a privileged
character, and could write as much or as
little as he chose. His uncompromising
honesty and independence often placed
him In position of antagonism to the
policy of the paper, and the responsible
editors were frequently obliged to cross
out what he had written after il had
been put in type. He has been known
to write an editorial in direct opposition
to one that had appered in the Enquirer
few hours before. Productions of this
sort, of course, never saw the light of
day. Before his matter had been put in
type none of his editorial associates
could read it. There were just four COM
positors in the office-known as Bloss'
ompositors-who could decipher his
manuscript. Three of them have been
working for the Enquirer over twenty
years, and the fourth eighteen years.
He was man of large information, in
tense vanity, lovable disposition, un-
wearied industry, and convivia habits,
without dignity or balance of mind. He
never travelled, and was never easy away
from his desk. Once when he had been
almost ordered away for vacation he
returned at the expiration of three days,
and, complaining of loneliness, was
allowed to resume his work. Bloss was
not more than five feet six inches in
height, and scarcely ever reached 100
pounds in weight. He was forty-nine
years of age.

Our Presidents.

Mrs. John Adams was the first mis-
tress of the White-house. The build
ing was unfinished and unfurnished. 1t
could hardly be warmed or lighted. The
most graphic letters written by Mrs.
Adams describes her sufferings there.
Her weeks washing was hung up in the
east room. Her style of living, adopted
not from parsimony but from necessity,
would disgust an ordinary treasury clerk.
Washington exacted the strictest econo-
my at home, that he might serve his
country and not impair his private for
tune. Jefferson was well off when he
went into public life. He inherited
1900 acres which he increased to 5000.
His income, independent Of his farm
revenue, was 50, 200 year. His wife's
dowry was $40, 900 in cash. Had he left
public life alone and tended to his real
estate he would have been a rich man.
His public career closed in 1909. For
nineteen years he was absent from Mon
ticello, and seven of these years were
spent abroad. He returned to find his
estate ruined, his property squandered,
and his fortune scattered. All attempts
TO retrieve his fortune were in vain he
was adjudged bankrupt. New York
city sent him donation of IS, 500, and
other cities were alike generous. Jack
son had a s yle of his own. Like a. good
soldier he lived within his income. At
the Rips Raps in the summer, in low
farm house, coat off, feet in slippers,
cob pipe in his mouth. he gave audi
ence to ambassadors. Van Buren, had
private fortune of his own. Pierce, by
rigid economy, carried $50,000 out of
the White-house.

Majestic on the wave ..I I.r.r,
The ocean empress rides;
For her the sea, willing slave,
Rolls forth his crested tides. 1.
Dashed from her breast she heaves
The quelled and trampled foam;
Her glorious track behind she leaves
Speed her, ye waters, home!
All, gently, cruel main,
The freighted treasures bear
Voices thou hast like summer rain,
Or virgins murmured prayer.
From out thy cave, o sea,
Breathe them In music's sound,
Toned to their hearts true harmony,
The glad, the homeward bound.
JOY! joy the glooming mist
She cleaves with landward bow
Coyly the billows, lightly kissed,
Leap from her arrowy prov.
Joy beams in woman's eye,
And laughs In childhood's mirth
And manly hearts give fond reply
For thee, o mother earth
Sovereign DER vanquished fear,
The lord of pride and power,
Man in his glorious strength is here,
This is his triumph's hour.
Hush hush what shock Of dread
Distorts his blanching brown
Stern as the bolt Of death II sped;
o man, what art thou now?
Thou saidst ga king" thou vast
On oceans stormy throne;
Now he is strong, and fierce, and vast.
Thou powerless and alone.
Lo with resistless grasp,
This wide, relentless sea
Folds like a toy in icy clasp
Thy shattered bark and thee I
God rules upon the deep;
There He alone is king;
The wild, wild waves that DER them sweel
Perpetual dirges sing.
Woe woe a thousand homes
Their coming wait in vain.
And far and wide above them glooms
The desert Of the main.

A FoRcEp RESIGNATION Although

high toned gentleman to be used to
do the dirty work of his party, hence
he has been made to "walk the plank"
not exactly by regular dismissal but
by an enforced resignation.

A SUCCESSFUL MN.

Mr.. Blaine is not accounted as a

that concerns his personal interest
He electioneers for himself without the
least reserve as a candidate for Presi-
dent, in the style that he originally
did when seeking nomination to
Congress. He stands on the plan of a
ward politician and conducts his cam
paign after the practices Of that exalted
model.
But when he comes 10 speak OF his
private fortune, acquired by the little
economies Of his salary as a member Of
the House in twelve years, he is quite
within bounds. He says he is "only
worth about four hundred thousand
dollars" Considering that Mr.. Blaine
entered Congress poor and was glad to
get the pay, and that he has Of late
years lived at a rate OF expense that
few men in public life could afford TO
maintain, it must be confessed he has
been n thrifty manager to have saved

half million, and by the report Of
