A CosrLT EREIGHL-A train Of three
freight ears containing 5000. 900
worth Of siIk-wOrm eggs, arrived in
New York. one day last week. from
China. They had come from Hong
Kong to San FranciscO in twenty-three
days, and thence to New York in less
than seven days, the speed being faster
than the mails are carried BY the same
route This cargo is bound for italy
and the South Of France, and could have
reached its destination quicker and at
less cost by way Of the Suez Canal. but
It has beer found useless. The warm
tropical climate matches the eggs. The
SILK worms are put upon long sheets Of
eardboards in China. and are left until
each board is covered with eggs. which
are about the size Of Mustard seed The
eggs stick to the cards. which, interlaid
with sheets Of paper, are packed in
wooden boxes, tightly closed, and wrap
ped IN canvas and mating. In this
shipment there we're CAT cases. contain.
ing over 10000 eapdE The eases
were transferred to the Hamburger steam
er Frisia. which viii sail for EurOus To-
day. When the eggs reach their desti-
nation they will Be stored IN vaults,
secure against warmth. until the uulber.
y trees On which they feed put forth
tier foliage.

AN EXAMPLE.


The following story is told Of the late
DR.. Hook. Dean Of Chichester. His
great interest in the working classes was
shown, among other acts. BY his signing
the temperance pledge in order to save
a man whom he saw to be giving away
to drinking. Telling the story in his
own words. in speaking Of the time when
he was Dean Of Leeds, he said
Il had in my parish at Leeds man
who earned 1ss. a week out Of this be
used to give u. to his wife, and to spend
the rest in drink. but for ali that be was
a good sort of a man. l went 70 him
and said:
Now, suppose you abstain altogether
for six months"
well. if l will. will you. sir" was
his reply.
Yes" said. II will"
what !" said be. ''frOm beer, from
spirits. from wine ?"
Yes"
And how shall know if you keep
your promise ?"
"Why. you ask my missus and I'll
ask yours"
ut was agreed between US for si1
months at first; and afterwards we re.
newed the promise. He never resumed
the bad habit that be had left of. and
is now prosperous and happy man il
business at st. Petersburg. and | an

THE GENUS HUMBUG.

The increase in the number Of adver-
tisements Of quaek doctors, lotteries. etc.
which we have noticed Of late. seem to
show that the enterprising parties who
engineer these schemes are reaping
golden harvest They would not be
likely to extend their business so much
were this otherwise, for they are gener-
ally 'hand to mouth" fellows, with lit
tie original capital besides their native
cheek. The fact that their business is
looking up when honest industries are
depressed is a sad one. and bears q NOR
al with it. In dull times the poor man
peruses the newspapers with care, look
ing for some opportunity to better his
condition. and too often be becomes the
prey Of the sharper. whose plots to en-
gulf the unwary are constantly chang
ing into new forms. He reads Of gigan-
tic lottery sehems in which prizes of
thousands Of dollars are to be given
away, and the "" and the "X'' are
raised, only TO be lost beyond recovery.
A firm giving Wall street address an
nounees that fortunes can be easily made
through them BY investment Of small
sums, and thousands Of poor dupes are
sending money to them with the vain
hope Of amassing sudden wealth. Rev
SO-and-so advertise to send receipts for
self-eure Of diseases free through the
mails. and hundreds answer. only to be
led on to expanding considerable money
for the ingredients Of the receipt, which
no one but the reverend gentleman
possesses. Another sharper will teach
the telegaPhie art and ensure O stu
atoms TO the learners. So It goes on.
down TO the end Of the list The hum
bug agent. be bis plot what it may,
draws more or less money from pockets
that can i'll afford to spare it. To know
a fraudulant advertisement when you
see one is easy, if the following rules be
observed:
Never rely on any promise TO return
you large sum for a small one, howev-
er plausible the argument used. Never
send dollar to any person or firm of
whose respectability JOu have no genu-
inc guarantee. Never trust professions
Of interest in your welfare and desire
for your good. when they come in an
advertisement which must have cost q
great deal Of money Never become :
party % any game Of chance. especially
agane where The chances are all against
you. as in most modern lotteries. Send
ing money abroad for any purpose o.
this kind is foolish. You can get any
thing you require as sheaPly in the near
est town or city as TO risk sending 10 /;
stranger. His sser 70 send you ten dol
lars worth for one bears The stamp o
falsehOOd on its face.

LowERY AND MYER SENTENCED TO THE STATE
PRISON FOR FIFTEEN YEARS
John Lowery and Charles Myer alias Waddie two OF
the gang of despcradocs who committed the series Of
dcpredations along the water front and upon small
vessels lying in the river, which has earned for them
the title of ''pratcs" were arragncd before Judge
Glderscevc in the Court of General Sessions yester
day, when they pleaded guilty robbery the first
degree. His Honor in addressing the prisoners said
that their offence being of the henous upon
the statute book would be tlv punished with the
tcme penalty of the law which would be twenty years
In State Prison, but IN view of their having pleaded
guilty, and thus saved the county the expense of
trial, and also view of their ages-one being thirty
and the other thirty nne--he would mitigate the
tence to fifteen years confinement in State Prison.
Matthew Ryan, indicted for participation in the rob-
berries, insisted upon being tried. John Peroander,
mate OF the schooner Samuel Wood testined that on
the morning OF February 16 he awakened TO find
three masked men i'll his cabin. One of them held
pistol to his head ana demanded money, and upon
asserting that he had none. the intruder struck him
several times with the butt of the pistol the face
One of the robbers had his hat raised slightly and
witness could part OF his forehead and eye.
BY these features he identified the prisoner the
man. When questioned, however, 1t made evil
dent that he not positive on the subject The
prisoner brought two young men 10 swear that he
slept with them at q house in Water street the
night of the robbery
The case will be summed up this morning by Assist
ant District Attorney Rollins for the people and Or
lando Stuart for the prisoner
