The Income Of the London ''Times."

The Times to-day, says a writer,
consists of 120 columns OF solid
matter. There are twenty pages. There
is no display in the Times; every page
is packed solid, and there is not a vacant
line. There is no loaded matter, except
the leading articles, the special tele-
graphic dispatches, and one OF the for
eign letters. The type is small; it is
BREWER, minion and nonpareil. If the
amount of matter in this number of the
Times were given to any Of the New
York morning papers to print in their
usual style, all of them, except the San,
would fill not less than forty of their
pages with it. Raoro arc eixty-seven
columns of advertisements. 1t is easy
enough to calculate what these adver-
tisements pay, for terms of the Times
can be ascertained, and there is never
any abatement or discount from them.
The sixty-seven columns i'll to-day's
issue, according to my calculation,
brought in e1,57O. If the Times
has this amount Of advertising
every day, its income from this
source would be 1852, 45 a year.
But generally it contains but sixteen
pages, and all the year round it has
about fifty columns of advertisements
day. At this rate its income from adj
vertisements would be about f430, 900
year; and it is from this source that it
must wholly, or chiefly, pay all its ex-
penses other than those of its paper
makers, its compositors, and its press
work. At threepence copy, the Times
probably has the cost of its actual me-
chanical production, but no more. Out
of the E430, 900 received for advertise
ments all its other expenses must bo de-
frayed. The expenses are vast; but with
e430, 900 one may pay all of them and
probably have clear balance Of G120,-
900 or G120 900 profit.

Poor CarlOtta 4!

From Brussels we receive sad intelli-
gence in regard to the poor Empress
Charlotte. Dr. Blatkens, who has been
ut the head of insane asylums for many
years, and through whose iudicous man.
agement thousands have been saved
from mental death, pronounces the em-
press incurable. Her folly is strange.
She refuses to believe in the existence OF
those around her, whilst, on the other
hand, she imagines world OF her own,
with which she lives, talks and enjoys
herself. To those actually surrounding
her she never speaks. She attends to
her own toilet, dresses her own hair in
old fashioned puffs, and separates her.
self, as it were, from all contact with hui
manity. Her memory in certain things
is, however, wonderful. She orders her
dinners in writing, and if any change be
made, or dish not to her taste, she no.
tees it ut once, and writes her re-
proaches, which she deposits in one
place, where she expects to find an an-
swer next day. She imagines herself
empress of Mexico, and Maximilian is,
to her mind, absent only for short
time. Her health is good, and her
beauty augmented by this strange, un-
natural tranquility of mind. Everything
is done to confirm this, even to having n
single example of the Gotha Almanac
published for her, in which the imperial
court of Mexico holds its place, quite ns
though everything had been going on
happily for her since 1867

A Moral Of the Times.

The great question of the day, es-
pecially in the higher circles, is how to
keep up appearances and to outdo ones
neighbsr. People live according to the
standard of their neighbor's resources i'll
stead of their own pockets. The lace
curtains on one side of the street must
be finer, or at least equal to texture of
the lace curtains on the other, and an
extra silver button must be added to
the coachman's livery as often as circum-
stances or the condition of the coat will
admit.
Extravaganza in dress and display in
furniture lead the way, no matter what
the cost or the sacrifice. Men of moder-
ate means plod along from day to day
with their noses to the grindstone, and
rise no higher in the social scale than the
middle height, and are lost in the gem
eral whirl of humanity. Many are still
living too fast, and all do so who look
around the corner to invite trouble,
already near enough at hand. The plain
moral of the times is that society is based
upon conditions not easily complied
with, demands that are imperative; and
that the end OF the delusion must come,
sooner or later, and people whose Gre
dentials are honesty and industry rather
than meretricious show and false pre-
tense to superiority must find an appre-
ciation as they did, years ago, when the
country was honest and could Hfford to

Why Soldiers Cannot Vote.

Army officers and soldiers do not vote
because the United States has sole juris-
diction over dockyards, arsenals, forts,
ETC., free from the authority of the
States wherein they are situated.
Hence it is they cannot acquire citizen
ship and vote in the State wherein they
happened to be stationed while in SER
vice. There is no Federal law which in
hibits an officer or soldier from voting at
his home, should he be there at election
time; and, unless prevented by State or
municipal law, his vote would be re-
ceived. While it is true, the Office of
President is Federal, he is elected by the
electoral college, the members Of which
are voted for in the several States, and
are, in fact, State officers performing
vicarious duty for the people. Nobody
votes directly for a President, and the
qualifications of voters are regulated by
State laws, in accordance with the Con-
stitutions of the States and of the UNI
ted States. The President cannot vote
in Washington. He must ego home to
vote" like the humblest clerk. Nobody
votes in Washington now, at any election
rnd the District of Columbia
is in the salue condition as Territory,
so far as the Presidential election is con-
cerned. Only States are permitted par
ticipation in that election.

Education in Western Texas.

An incident recently occurred at an
exhibition of school in Live Oak
county, Texas. A large orphan boy was
asked by the teacher why it was that no
attempt was made to explore the south
pole The boy replied, because it WAS
too cold. After expressing his unbound
ed amazement at the Ignorance of the
youth, the professor procured his cow
hide out of his desk, and began to instill
the latest geographical intelligence into
him, annotating the information with
copious whacks "Ill teach you to

The Cause Of II.

Says q newspaper writer: ! believe
one great cause Of intemperancc, Of OK
cessive drinking of ardent spirits, is the
custom Of the American people Of indul-
ging in social drinks. If we invite n
friend to take n drink, he considers it
his duty to invite us to take one in re-
turn with him; if n third join the party
he must also, according to custom, invite
both, and 80 it goes on, the larger the
party the more rounds of drinks.
The custom is most vicious in its re-
suits. A man who goes to fashionable
saloon to take q single drink finds it diff
ficult to get ont without drinking half
dozen times. The one drink would per-
hnps have done him little harm, the half
dozen drinks muddle his brain, tangle
his tongue, and render him unfit for
business.
The remedy, I think, is to do away
with social drinking, and to inaugurate
some society by which gentlemen shall
cease to be "cappers for saloons l
would suggest the creation of an associa-
ton whose members would pledge them
selves neither to drink in public bar
room with any person nor to allow any
person to drink with them; in short,
that every man should pay for his own
drink, and all be independent. Then, if
one desires to take n drink, he can pay
for it, and not feel under obligations to
take several in order not to offend
friends.
This system is extensively practiced in
England, and is known by the title OF
Yorkshire" When man asks party
to drink, and says Yorkshire, y it means
every man pay for his own drink.
have indulged in the use of spiritu-
GUS liquors for long period of time. 1
believe myself to be fully aware Of its
evil results. am satisfied from close
observation that many men are made
drunkards by this system of "every

High Life in uha.

Juan Norrega has had a suit for di-
vorce before the courts of Havana for
the last six years. Divorce is an impos-
sibility in Spanish law, which grants
only separation of bed and board. There
was one small child and bitter contest
was waged for the possession of the boy.
The suit reached critical point, and
Norrega commanded his wife's lawyer,
Senior Azay, to desist from further pro-
ceedings. The counsel refused and the
court gave the mother possession of the
boy. Azay presented himself, accompa-
MED by the. sheriff, at Norrega's house,
demanding possession of the boy. The
father, finding resistance unavailing, be-
came desperate, drew a revolver, killed
the lawyer, wounded the child fatally,
and blew his own brains out. The boy
has since died. The parties were of
the first social circles.

How They Suffer.

4. A New York physician gives the fol-
lowing experience. 1t is only one out of
thousands of stories of the same kind
that Ugh. be told ha,ro enoountared
already this winter an appalling amount
Of misery among the families of unem-
ployed men. Cold and privation induce
illness, and then am called in to find
them destitute not only of the comforts
but even of the necessities of life.. 1t is
hard enough to see adults in such misery
as theirs, but to see the little children,
shivering with cold, crying for food, dy-
ing even for lack Of the few small COM
forts requisite for their recovery from i'll
ness consequent upon their condition,
that is simply horrible. One case out of
many which could cite to you A poor
woman sent for me to attend her child,
which was sick with Group. I told her
to obtain simple and cheap remedy at
the drug store. She had no money
to get it. gave her sufficient Then I
told her to pat mustard draughts to the
little things feet She had not even
money enough to get the little mustard
required Well, gave her some more.
The next morning, when called, I no.
ticed that the poor woman looked very
much exhausted, and her room was cold
as cave. 7 said to her: "You have
been up all night with the child, have you
not ?" She burst out crying and an
swered me eyes; and haven't had
bit to eat for two days" Her husband
was good, sober, hard working man,
but had had no work for long while,
and had gone to another city in search
of some. He had not found any, and
there she was without food, fire, sufficient
clothing to keep herself Or child warm,
or even the means to get medicines to
save its life. Since then her husband
has come back, and still he has nothing
to do. I have done what 1 could for
them, and have enlisted some kind peo-
pie in aiding them, but what can I do pro-
portionate to the demand, when such
cases are all about me? I go
wherever my professional services can
do any good, and cannot, as long as I
have anything, refrain from helping the
most needy, but the people who
can afford to pay, and who do
pay now, are much the smaller
and do not keep the bal
ance good enough to enable me to do
anything like what I should. am fairly
worn out, sick with exposure and fatigue,
heartsick with the sight of misery.

Move On.

While the tottering ruins of a build
ing were yet standing, Yankee climbed
upon the wall to obtain a better view
There was a rumble and tremendous
crash, and when the dust cleared away
the Yankee was observed standing on a
fragment of the wall that had miracu-
lously remained unshaken. 1t was just
large enough to afford him footing and
forty feet from the ground. A police
officer runs up and interrogates the un-
fortunate man, who, using his hands as
a speaking trumpet, explains.
"Well," says the officer, "yeu have
clearly violated the law, but as you
didn't mean any harm 1 shall take no
notice of the infraction. Only move on,
and don't attract crowd"

What Was 1t!

A party of young workingmen in VIII
iamsburgh, N. Y, were drinking in a
saloon. Suddenly Harry Frank, eight
cen years old, fell over in what seemed
to be an epileptic fit. While efforts were
being made to relieve him he begun to
foam at the mouth and to bark like q
dog, and tried to bite those who came
within his reach. Medical aid was sum-
moned, and he was taken to the city hos
pital. A physician gave the young man
thorough examination, but was unable
to determine whether he had hydro
phobia, hysteria, epilepsy, or alcoholism.
During the evening he became so violent
that it was found necessary to put him
in a straitjacket; but the next day he was
quiet, and none of the symptoms of his
trouble required. Frank was bitten by
dog three or four months ago, and still
bears the scar. The wound was at once
cauterized, he says, but as the dog was
thought to be mad, he has ever since
been in dread lest he should sooner or
later be attacked with hydrophobia. He
is spoken of as young man not given to
excessive drinking.

The Old Canoe.

Where the rocks are gray and the shore Is steep
And the waters below look dark and deep
Where the rugged pine, in its lonely pride,
Leans gloomiy over the murky tide;
Where the reeds and rushes are long and rank,
And the reeds grow thick on the winding bank
Where tie shadow is heavy the whole day
through,
There lios at its moorings the old canoe
Tho useless paddles are idly dropped,
Like sea birds wings that tho storm has
Topped,
And crossed on the railing one DOR one,
Like the folded hands when the work is done,
While busily back and forth between.
The spider stretches his silvery screen,
And the solemn owl with his dull "to-who,'
Settles down Oh the sides of the old canoe.
The stern, half sunk in the slimy wave.
Rots slowly away in its living grave,
And the green moss creeps over its dull decay,
Hiding its moldering dust away,
Like the hand that plants DER the tomb q
flower,
or the ivy that mantles the falling tower;
While many blossom of loveliest hue
Springs up DER the sides of the old canoe.
The currentless waters are dead and STILL
But the light wind plays with the boat at will,
And lazily in and out again
It floats the length of the rusty chain,
Like the weary march of the hands of time
That meet and part at the noontide chime,
And the shore is kissed at each turning anew
by the dripping bow of the old canoe.
Oh, many time, with careless hand,
l have pushed it away from the pebbly strand
And padded it down where the stream runs
quick,
Where the whirls are wild and the eddies are
thick,
And laughed as leaned DER the rocking side
And looked below in the broken tide
To see that the faces and boats were two
That were mirrored back from the old canoe.
But now, as lean DER the crumbing side,
And look below in the sluggish tide,
The face that see there is graver grown,
And the laugh that hear has sobcrer tone,
And the hands that lent to the light skiff wings
Have grown familiar with stsrner things
But love to think of the hours that sped
As I rocked whore the whirls their white spray
shed,
Ere the blossom waved or the green grass grew
Der the moldering stern of the old canoe.
