A Starr nIPrnrfnr Knott.

Jones tells us good story-of Proctor
Knott. Ii will be remembered that in
the fall of 1860 Knott, then residing in
Missouri, was elected attorney general
on The Claib. Jackson ticket. When
Frank Blair seized the state of Missouri
in 1861, he sent old Col. Bernstein at the
head of two German regiments from st
Louis to take possession of Jefferson
City. Bernstein was revolutionist of
rs and a native of Hesse. Cassol. At his
approach Clalb. Jackson fed 10 Neosho,
accompanied by all the state officers OK
ccpt Knott and one other. As soon rs
Bernstein had established himself IN pos
session, with headquarters at the state
house, he sent q corporal and file of
men to collect those fragments OF the
state government which Jackson in haste
h adj left behind. The corporal collected
our J. Proctor along with the other iras
ments, and marched him up-to hcadquar
tiers, where Bernstein, in full regimen
tails, with sword and pistols by his side,
seated in the great chair OF the Chief
Justice, received him.
When Knott was presented TO him,
Bernstein began a speech as follows:
"Mr. Addorney Sheneral, der refolu-
ton ish now gombledc. Der maderial

"AlIow me 10 interrupt you, Colonel"
Knott broke ia solcmnly.
Cordially" said Berstien, with enor-
nous gravity.

curracy of history" pursued Knott.
"Yoa observe, Colonel, that the context
of your remarks would lead TO the in

fought shoulder 10 shoulder in that con-
fiict. But if you will refer to any relia-

The Detroit Free Press says: One Of
those toll hardened, true hearted chaps
often read of in romance made his APP
pearance on the Campus Martius and
his sympathies were at once aroused by.

ing around with their bucksaws and
waiting for work.

replied, when they told him that they
badn' had any work for a month. GLOW

They smacked their lips by way of re-
ply, and he gathered up q crowd of
eight, marched them to restaurant and
ordered oyster stews for each one.
alt Just does my soul good TO see them
cat! !" he said TO the owner of the place
as the eight got TO work.
Eyes it's a beautiful sight,, was the
reply.
.sit makes me feel good in here" con-
tinued the stranger, laying his hand on
his heart.
"a good deed brings its own reward"
was the soft answer OF the restaurateur,
as he calculated his profits.
81 can't rest here | must do further
good" said the big hearted stranger, and
he rushed out and brought in three men,
chimney sweep, two boys and an old
woman, and ordered more oysters.
The fifteen people went for oyster
soup in manner to amaze, and their
guardian nudged the restauratour IN the
ribs and SAID:
"See the gentle lambs Oh, that l
could iced the poor of all America J!
"You are a good man, and Heaven
will reward you," replied the proprietor,
as he filled the dishes up again.
The stranger said he wanted to bring
in just five more, so as to say that he
bad fed an even score, and he rushed out
after them, while the rcstaurateur sent
after more oysters and crackers. The
stranger didn't return. He was last seen
climbing into farmers sleigh and guild
ing his team to the west. The fifteen in
the restaurant licked their plates clean
and departed in joyful procession, and
the last one had passed out before the
man who furnished the soup had got
through waiting for the return of the
big hearted stranger. There were
watchwords and expressions, delivered
in-tho purest of English, but what mat

who drew up in the line opposite, and

How to Manage 8 Musical Voice.

The medical management of the voice
 is quite as important as the manner of
 its production, and the professor of
 singing and the medical musical trainer ought to coalesce. Dr. Browne pointed out the mistakes made by teachers in their endeavors to convert contraltos into sopranos and barytones into tenors, He said rightly that the voice should be always exercised in notes we'll within the range of the singer; he was opposed to the exercise of the voice to it's ex- treme limit. He protested against the supposition of the existence of any uni versal medicine to regenerate a lost voice, and blamed the practice of sing ing-masters prescribing for their pupils remedies they could know nothing about. The general health should be cared for on general principles. As for the stimulants used by singers, he was opposed to any alcoholic drinks. On this point the lecturer might have cited the various modes adopted by singers, for most certainly Malibran never in- jured her magnificent voice by drinking before she sang-porter, which she would have out of the pewter; and Grisi was never so grand in the last act of Norma as when she had taken bottle of Dublin stout. MT. Sims Reeves is opposed to stimulants; he recommends glycerine lozenge; but Rubini drank bottle of claret, and Duprez was never in finer condition for his at de poitrine in the final scena of f"Arnold" William TeH than when he had taken pint of champagne. We have known some prtnse-donne who prefer port, and there was one British barytone of note who took gin as stimulant. No two con stitutions are alike, and what would be poison to one is salvation to the other.- AthenRum.

Madeira as a Health Resort,

The temperature varies from an aver age summer heat of 72 degrees to a winter of 60 degrees, giving an annual mean of 66 degrees, which has made it the favorite resort of consumptive in- valids from all parts of Europe. Whether it is the best in the world will appear when Tenerife is considered. It is enough to say at present that the humi- dity of the Madeira winter, due to a longer prevalence of rain, and the ex- cessive discomfort occasioned at other times by the dry, noxious, and almost lnsufferable peste, or east wind, which blows from the coast of Africa, where 1t Is known as the hdrmatian, and equally dreaded, are not experienced on the Spanish island, but are, in measure, compensated for by the greater comforts that are at the command of the wealthy invalid in Madeira. The island is easily reached ill four or five days by steamers from England and Portugal. The English language is spoken as commonly as the vernacular, and private hotels are numerous, where extensive suits of apartments, excellent attendance, and the most delicate cuisi- nerie are obtainable. Hammock bearers accustomed to the business tenderly carry the consumptive for daily exer- else, and the number of these during the season when the island is most fre- quented is not a pleasant spectacle for the robust and healthy visitor. At every step are met slowly passing ham mocks with their pale-faced burdens; but all the hammocks do not contain invalids. Some are stretched to their utmost by the portly forms of residents of the island, who, particularly the ladies, find this not uncomfortable, and in certain cases the only possible, means of progression.
 Besides comfortable hotel, boarding house, and hospital accommodations for every class, more numerous than on any other of the islands, there are read ing-rooms and promenades open to the sea, which beguile the hours of the in- valid visitor. Seated under the lofty trees of the Praca Academica, watching the ceaseless roll of the ocean, breath ing the balmy air of this charming eli mate. and soothed by thousand other delightful influences, mind as we'll as body at rest, he accustoms himself to that self-denial so difficult amidst the hustle and turmoil surrounding and tempting him in his own northern home; and often forgetting that he is ill, he gains that cheerfulness and anil nation which sometimes prelude his complete recovery. Often the invalid comes hither so late that no restoration is possible.-Harper's Adgazine.
