A Surprised Restaurateur.

Paris Correspondence New Orleans Pioayune.
Brebant, the well known restaurateur
bought, just before the siege of Paris
commenced, an immense quantity OF
tunny-fshes picked in oil. His Gus
toners, tired of horse-fesh, asked him
Cant you manage to give US some.
thing else?"
Brebant buried his head in his hands
and thought. Presently he said:
Tomorrow l will give you veal"
Sure enough the next day there was
veal on every table, and the restaurant
rang with loud huzzas. When peace
was restored, the first visitor from
abroad who entered Brebant's doors
was the commercial traveller who had
sold him the tunny-fshes, and who
asked:
well, were you satisfied with your
purchase from me?"
Brebant replied: 81 should say
was. Ask my customers. They were
delighted, for / sold your funny for

"Brebant, it was not funny, it was

IHE bureau of medical service of
Philadelphia has published circular,
IN which comparative statement of
the average rate of mortality in six
great cities of the world is given, show
ing the Quaker City to be the health
est of all these centres of population.
1t Is claimed that these favorable re-
suits are due to the favorable climate,
the abundant and cheap water supply,
the facilities given for the engagement
Of pure air In the great parks and the
absence of oyercrowding in the popu-
lation. In view of the expected iufiux
of visitors during the coming summer,
vigorous sanitary measures have been
adopted both in the city proper and at
the Exhibition grounds, and constant
watchfulness will be maintained to en-
sure the health of the city. The mean
annual temperature of the air for the
summer for the past ten years is given
as follows: June, 1854; July, 1874;
August, 1892.

Chinese History Of European War

A Chinese history, in eight volumes,
of the French German War, has recent
ly been presented to the Library of the
British Museum. The London
Ahenaun,, mentioning this work, says;
the authors, Wang Taon and Chang
Tsung- Gang, as stated in the preface
collected the materials for their work
from foreign newspapers, and the
account they have compiled is highly
creditable to their critical and editorial
abilities. In the present state of
Europe the authors find parallel to
the condition of China about 500 years
before Christ, and as that was one of
the most disturbed periods in Chinese
history, they evidently consider that
peace is not likely long to continue
among us. In fact, the only prospect
they see of avoiding hostilities is in a
firm alliance between England, France,
Russia and Prussia The history begins
with general sketch of Europe, and
then proceeds to the immediate causes
of the war The celebrated intervi wv
between Benedetta, who is called
'Peen-ni-teh-ti,' and the King of
Prussia, at Ems, which appears as
'Im-sze,' the various battles, with the
browning disaster at 'Sze-tan' SEDAN,
and the siege of Paris, all are fully de-
scribed, and the book closes with the
election of Mak-ma-hau' as President
of the French Republic"

How to Drive Off Yermin.

If mosquitoes or other blood-suckers
infest our sleeping rooms at night, we
uncork a bottle of the oil of pennyroyal
and they leave in great haste, nor vii
they return SO long as the air IN the
room is impregnated with the fumes OF
that aromantic herb. If rats enter the
cellar, little powered potash thrown
in their hole, or mixed with meal and
scattered in their runways, never fails
to drive them away. Cayenne pepper
will keep the buttery and store room
free from ants and cockroaches. If a
mouse makes an entrance into any
part of your dwelling, saturate rag
with cayenne in solution, and stuff 1t
into the hole, which can be repaired
with either wood or mortar. No rat or
mouse will ever eat that rag for the
purpose of opening communication
with depot of supplies.

1T is estimated that the acreage of
land to be devoted to the cultivation of
wheat In Texas this year will be nearly if
not quite double what it was in 1875.
Indeed, the Denison Ne,cs is 80 sanguine
IN this fact that it already goes so far
as to give 100000 bushels as the
probable yield during the ensuing year.
The growth of wheat-raising in this
state during the past few years is truly
remarkable. In 1874 there was not
sufficient quantity raised to supply the
local consumption; in the following
year about 100000 bushels were
raised, leaving 6 100000 for export, and
now 100000 is placed as the yield
for 1876. By the resident farmers, the
soil and climate are considered as prop
ltluus to the cultivation as that Of any
action of the country, including Cali
fornla. The average yield of the state
Is % bushels to the acre, and in some
districts the yield runs a. high as 40
bushels.

1T may interest our readers to know
how meats are kept for the English
market during voyage across the At
lantic. The principle is extremely
simple, and it involves no chemical an
plcatlon or process of any kind. To
keep fresh meat sound and sweet dur-
ing the ten or twelve days needed to
cross the ocean, it is necessary merely
to keep 1t dry and cool, without free1-
ing 1t. This was the entire problem be-
tore the inventor, and he has solved It
by purely mechanical means. The
meat being in one part of the refrigera-
tor and the ice in another, keeps a con-
slant stream of air passing over the
meat and the ice alternately. This is
the whole process. Of course, the air
from the ice keeps the meat cool, but
not SO low as the freezing point. If, in
passing through the meat chamber, the
air takes up the slightest moisture, this
is necessarily condensed into water as
soon as it reaches the ice again, and it
flows away in runways at the bottom of
the ice chamber.

THE wedding presents of Nellie Grant
were exhibited in London to a select
circle soon after her arrival in England
and folks were surprised at the quanti-
ty of silver given her. 1t is not Gus
tomary there to choose silver for we'd
ding gifts, it being generally supposed
that all well-to- do families have enough
silver as heir-looms, or have purchased
enough to answer every purpose. The
question was more than once asked of
those who had presents on exhibition :
" Why did they give her so much sill
yer? did her friends think the family
into which she married had none?"

IT is estimated that there are "a,
100000 English speaking people in the
world. Those who speak Spanish come
next, number 100000; the French
third, numbering 100000. The ex-
tent to which the Spanish tongue is
spoken will surprise many who have
not considered the subject; but it must
be remembered that it prevails not
only in Spain, but in nearly all the Cen
trail and South American states. But
none of the civilized tongues can ap-
proach in universally of use the Chi
nese and Hindoo Languages.

A NEW swindle, now extensively prac.

A NEW swindle, now extensively prac.
ticed principally in the country
towns, is the sale of almost worthless
dry goods by trickery. A peddlar calls
upon a farmer and shows large bun
die of assorted cloth, and represents
himself as the agent of a bankrupt firm
In England. He says that under a
special provision of the revenue laws,
remnants in packages of not less worth
than $50 each may be imported free
of duty, thus saving about seventy per
cent. The purchaser of lot really
pays double instead of half the value of
the goods.

pardon or modification of the sentences of
