Prince Bismarck is displaying inilexible rcso-
luton in promoting his scheme for placing the
Imperial Government in control of the German
railroads. He declares their possession essen
tial to national unity, deeming it intolcrable
that Germany should be "cut into pieces by
her railroad system. lie states, however. that
the scheme will be effected gradually, and that
the rights of the several States will be re-
spected. So far as Prussia is concerned, Prince
bismarck will not experience great difficulty.
The bill giving the Imperial Government au-
thority to buy such lines as are still under
private control was yesterday read first
time in the Chamber of Deputies. When this
measure is effected, the remaining German
States will be strongly impelled to make their
lines form part of the railroad union.

The Plague which last year visited the val
ley of the Lower Euphrates reappcared two
months ago in the same quarter. Since March
it has been rife in Bagdad, where on the 9th
inst. IA new cases were reported. This hap
PLY falls short of the terrible visitation In
1881, when the disease carried off as many as
1000 victims daily, destroying finally more
than One-thrd of the people of Bagdad. No
alarm is felt in Western Europe. 1t is consd-
cred that there is "nOt much more chance of an
"invasion of England by the Plague than there
sis of the destruction of London by an earth
"quake like that of Lisbon" Despite this
sense of security the foreign Ministers are
prudently dissuading the Porte from trans
ferring Asiatc Turks to the army in Herze-
gOvlna.
We attach small Importance to the present
talk of Mr.. John MOrrissey and his associ-
ates, whom the Utica Convention rejected.
They may do as they threaten-unite
with the Republicans this Fall; but it
is easier for dyed-n- the-wool Democrats
to do this in disputed city election than in a
national contest. Doubtless their action, and
that of the Independents, might turn the
scale against Gov. Tilden in New York; and
it is not impossible that their anger may lead
to that. But to those who remember
the average Democratic nature (of
which Mr.. John MOrrissoy has his
full share), it doesn't seem very probable. Re-
publicans would do wisely to nominate can
didate who can carry New-York, rather than
trust to Mr.. John Morrissey to help them
carry 1t.

When young Chicago man came down

that his wife, who was preparing break
fast, bad not spoken TO him when she got
up, and so he cheerlully said, GOOD

Not word came in reply.
Good morning." said he again, in a
higher key, thinking that she might not
have heard him before.
"Um-' NJ m" was all that escaped
from her sealed lips, as she kept on with
the work.
"Why under the sun don't you answer
me ?" exclaimed be in surprise "what's
the matter? what have l done to offend
you ?"
"Um' m m" was the only sound elici-

"Look here !" then exclaimed the hus-
band, as he jumped up and knocked over
cup of coffee ~ don't swallow a

"Whats the matter ?" echoed she,

i BRIGHT CAPITALIsT.-A colored
resident of Detroit, who occasionally
lends few dollars on good security, was
the other day invited to lend a neighbor
ing cobbler $50 on a note of hand run
ming thirty days.
"Suppose dat note comes due, and you
haven't de cash." inquired the capital
ist.
"But | will nave"
"But suppose you haven't ?"
The cobbler couldn't get over that, and
was looking very serious, when the capi-
talist got bright idea and said
1--WE can fix dat. You make de note,
you see. You may be good or you may
not be. I'm good, and we bof knows it,

PEOPLE WILL TALK.

You may go through the world, but twill be
very slow,
If you listen to all that is aid as you go;
You'll be worried, and fretted, and kept in a
stew,
For med ilesome tongues will have something
TO do,
For people will talk.
IF quiet and mo iest, you'll have it presumed
That your humble position is only assumed;
You're a wolf in sleeps clothing, or else you're
fool;
But don't get excited, keep perfectly cool,
For people will talk.
If generous and noble, they'll vent out their
spleen;
You'll hear some loud hints that you're selfish
and mean
If upright and honest, and fair as the day,
They'll call you a rogue in sly sneaking way
For people will talk.
And then. if you show the least boldness of
heart,
Or slight inclination to take your own part,
They'll call you an upstart, cOnceited and vain;
But keep strait ahead, don't stop to explain,
For people will talk.
IfyOu dress in the fashion, don't think to escape
For they critcise them in different shape
You're ahead of your means, or your tailor's
unpaid
But mind your own business there's nought
TO be made,
For people will talk.
Now, the best way to do, is to do as you please,
For your mind, if you have one, will then be
at ease
OF course you will meet with all sorts of abuse
But don't try to stop them it amt any use,
For people will talk.

she drove up to the eastern hay market
she called out
Everybody git away, for I'm coming

Down she came off the back end of the
load, striking the ground like a load Of
stone, and when the men around there
came to see that she was as broad as she
was tall they began to banter her.

"My names South, and I've driven that
load of hay fourteen miles this morning I;
know I'm fat, but I've got business on
hand and can't stand any nonsense"
After the load ofhay had been weighed
she was offered fifty cents to step on the
platform, while dozen men made up a
purse Of two shillings each to go to one
who guessed nearest her weight.

the weighmaster as the beam went up

Mrs. South, and reaching out she seized

"You can't make no side show of me
and all get deadhead tickets !"
There was quite row over her COB
bling the cash, but she backed up to the
scales, spread out her fat hands, and re-
marked:
