A Temperance Movement.

Several new dining and tea rooms have
been opened in London for the purpose
of providing workingmen with cheap
lunches without liquor. One Of these is
a cafe In st. Paul's ohurchyard, where
1000 clerks lunch or dine daily. Com
bining the attractions Of a confectionery
shop, a luncheon-bar, dining rooms, and
a cafe for reading and smoking, this place
is unlike " temperance hall" Tables
OF gray marble are ranged along the
middle and sides Of a large and lofty
diningroom, where light, heat and ven
tilation have been carefully studied; the
seats throughout are padded with Grim
son plush, that gives a CHEEKY look to
the place; and oil-paintings of some
merit will be hung on the walls to relieve
the prevailing fat tints. Besides the
luncheon-bar and shop downstairs, and
the dining-room, this building con-
tains a ladies' tea-room, a grill-rooln, a
readingroom and lavatories. The read
ing-room, where coffee is served and the
soothing weed is not prohibited, is on
the top floor, so that the diners are not
annoyed by the fumes Of tobacco. The
abolition Of fees to walters is an excel
lent innovation.

Found at Last.

Not long after the stealing of Charley
Ross, little son of Henry Dochmueler,
of ST. Louis, was stolen. The father
had but ittle'property, and was unable
to pay the expenses of an extensive
search; but he shrewdly hit upon plan
for accomplishing the object effectually.
He read the newspapers carefully, and
whenever he saw an account of the find
ing of a supposed Charley Ross he sent
to learn'if the boy was not his lost one.
At length, two years after the kidnap-
ping, he saw an account of stray boy
in Illinois, and, on going there, he found
what he had been SO long in search of.
The child's HAIR had been dyed, and he
had changed much through sickness and
deprivation, but there was no doubt as
to the identity. He had been stolen by
wandering beggars, who had made his
pretty face profitable in exciting sympa-
thy. The father is now prosecuting the
supposed kidnappers.

A Queer Community.

About fifty years ago a family named
Bubier went into the Maine forest north
Of Lewiston and cut themselves off COM
pletely from civilization Recently they
were discovered by a correspondent Of
the Boston Globe. Their novels were
scattered about in the patches of cleared
land which they had made. The vagrant
family had multiplied into several
families, including over fifty persons,
and was dwelling in poverty, ignorance
and sloth. The log houses were unpro-
vided with anything that could con-
tribute to human comfort. There was
no furniture except blocks and pieces of
log. But one person could read, and he
wouldn't. Not book or a scrap of
printed paper was to be found in the
place. None OF the younger genera
ton had ever been to the nearest town.
ALI were profoundly ignorant of the
world, and devoid of either religion or
morality. They obtained a precarious
subsistence from such scanty crops as
their lazy habits prompted them to OBJ
tain, and from the game of the forest
and the fish of Dead river. In short,
the Bubiers, under the influence Of ma
ture and solitude, had relapsed into
barbarism more depressing than that Of
the savages that dwelt in those woods
three centuries ago.

The Poet Lowell.

The work-day surroundings of Mr..
James Russell Lowell are described as a
broad easy-chair, standing midway be-
tween the table and the fireplace, which
holds blazing logs. In this chair he has
done most of his writing, his only desk
being stiff piece Of pasteboard conven-
iently resting on his knee. One of the
curiosities which MI. Lowells study con-
tains is pair Of silver sleeve-buttons,
now furnished almost into blackness,
which were. once worn by Robert Burns.
Mr.. Lowell is fond of trees and flowers,
and often works among them He is an
angler and a pedestrian, never riding
wnen he can walk. He is in excellent
health, and looks manly, robust, and
erect. He may sometimes be seen in
black wintry weather walking leisurely
through Cambridge thoroughfares with
not even the ghost of an oyercoat envel-
oping him.

alton in that State,
Silver.

A correspondent at San Francisco
writes to the Journal des De6ats in
Paris that the worlds. production of sill
yer is greatly overrated, from the fact
that the yield Of American silver mines
is usually counted as entirely Of silver,
while on the contrary it is in fact nearly
half gold The American mines, north
of and including those in the State of
Colombia, really yielded in 1876, $50,
100000 OF gold and $45, 600, 000in silver,
while the gold mines proper only yielded
$26, 100000. The correspondent says,
Ignorance of this fact has exercised a
great influence on the market for pre-
cious metals in London, where the enor-
nous quantity Of gold produced by sill
yer mines has been wrongly considered
as silver. This is one of the causes OF
the temporary depreciation Of silver.

PrRSidAntSs Mates.

Washington WAS married, but had no
children, Adams was married, and had
one son, whom he lived to see Presi-
dent. Jefferson was a widower his
wife died twenty years before his cleo
ton. They had six children, all daugh-
ters, OF whom only two survived infancy.
Madison was married, but had no chill
dren. His wife was the most elegant
woman that ever adorned the Presi-
Dental mansion. She survived him, and
was for many years the pride Of Wash
ington society, having lived to listen to
Henry Clay's farewell speech in the Sen
ate. Monroe was married, and so was
John Quincy Adams. Jackson was a
widOwer, and SO was Van Buren, and
Harrison. Tyler was a widower when
he entered Office, but soon afterward
married the heiress, Miss Gardiner. He
was the only President that married dur
ing his term of Office. Polk was mar
ried man, and his wife still survives him.
Gen. Taylor was widower. Pierce was
a married man, but Buchanan was a
bachelor. The social condition of such
men as Lincoln, Johnson and Grant need
no reference, except to add that Grant is
the first President who had daughter
married while IL office.

EnligratiOn.

Speaking of the lull in emigration to
| America, the London Times says eff
there are fewer migrants than there used
to be, it is because emigration has done
it's work thoroughly, and has pretty well
equalized the wages of labor in the two
hemispheres. IF the movement Of popu-
lation has finished it's work as between
Europe and America, it has not at any
rate got through, as far as the distribu-
ton of population over the surface Of the
United States is concerned. This repub-
lie is very unevenly settled The North
is too crowded in some parts, and the
South is too vacant Part OF the work of
the next ten years will be to equalize
population in the national territory at
home, and this will be profitable both for
the several States and the people them
selves. IF million or two intelligent
people of the admirable Industrial class
which may be found in the manufacture
ing cities of the North should remove to
the South during the next few years, it
would be to the advantage of all con-
cerned. The South is appealing for SET
tlars, and can furnish land, work. and
wages to all who may come. The crowd
In Northern cities would be relieved, and
there would be more to do and better
wages for those who remain. Consider
ing the national and personal advantages
OF movement Of population toward the
South, it is gratifying to notice that one
has seriously begun. Last year 100000
people went into Texas alone; and there
is small but steady flow toward Georgia
and Florida already in progress. Skillful,
industrious men who are tempted by what
they hear from emigration agents to go
from this country to Australia, should un-
derstand that they will do far better in
the long run to remain at home.

She is Waiting.

A well-to-do widow living in the north
ern part of the city has, during the past
winter, depended solely upon the sun to
clear her walks Of snow, and boys with
snow shovels and policemen with notices
have failed to alter her programme.
Yesterday morning, after the big storm,
there was drift foot deep in front of
her house, and boy with innocent blue
eyes and faxen hair rang the bell and
brought her down the hall at trot.
"Does the Widder - live here %
he asked, as she opened the door.
She said she was the person named,
and he continued
You've been awful good to us poor
folks this winter, and / run over from
Woodward avenue to say that there's the
incest sort Of man in drug store over
there asking about you
About me ?"
F" Yes'm. He's got big gold watch,
and diamonds, and plug hat and a
gold-headed cane, and / heard him ask
the clerk if you were married yet"
"He did?'
Yes'm, and when the clerk told him
no, he asked for the number of your
house, and heard him say something
about old love-graves- recollections-
big house on Fifth avenue, New York,
and he sighed. I believe he's coming
over here.
"Who can it be-who cam it be ?" she
unused.
"Haint the least idea. He doesn't
look as if he was used to wading through
the snow, and [ thought I'd slip over and
clean up your walks"
Yess-ah-of course-wait a minute,
bub."
She ran and got a silver quarter,
patted him on the head, and went in to
get on her best clothes. She didn't see
the boy any more, and at o'clock in the
afternoon she was still looking over
toward Woodward avenue, her optics hay
ing a tired expression and her nose a
weary pose.

A Pretty Little Romance.

Ten years ago handsome young man
passed through Monticello, KY, and was
noticed by young girl sitting at the
window OF the most aristocratic house of
the town. She fell in love with him at
first sight. She had wealth, culture and
beauty. He was poor, and was then on
his way to seek fortune as q cattle herder
in Texas After many ups and downs
he found himself the owner of a silver
mine in New Mexico. The girl bloomed
into rarely beautiful woman, with liter
airy ability, and became contributor to
the apostolic Times. She learned who
the unconscious object Of her fancy was,
and they correspondent throughout the
ten years. She never wrote a word of
her personal attractions OF family, nor

They have been experimenting in Cal
ifornia in raising hogs upon grapes. Mr..
Joseph P. Dow publishes in the Russian
River Flag an account of his experience
in feeding single porker. He turned
the animal into his vineyard with 9
weight of 100 pounds, and it remained
there twenty-seven days, having nothing
to eat during that time except the finest
grapes, such as Flame, Tokay, Black
Hamburg, and Muscat. It was then
slaughtered, and weighed 1853 pounds
net, equal to 203 pounds gross, showing
gain Of forty three pounds gross, or one
and half pounds per day.

weeks ago he wrote her promising mar
riage, and soon followed his letter to her
Kentucky home, where he saw her for
the first time. Recently they we're mar

learned on reaching Silver City that her
husband, r. B. Metcalf, was the great
est capitalist in New Mexico.

tenn, a modification of Wilde's and Siemens'
principle. M. Lontain has contrived to send
the current generated by an ordinary Wide
machine into an electromagnetic machine
called a distributor. The central part beng
strongly ~magnetized by the current from a
Wilde's machine, q number OF electro-mag-
nets are Influenced by its rapid rotation, and
in each of these an induction current is gen
Grated. These induction currents are pow
erful enough to feed three electric lamps,
and as there are two series Of twelve mag
nets, a single machine could, theoretically,
feed seyenty-two lamps. Actually, howeV-
er, it feeds only twcnty-eight. Lontaln uses
a new regulator, which works very we'll by
the dilatation of a small silver wire. By It's
dilatation this part of the apparatus works
a lever system, and brings the carbon cleo
trodes into contact. ,rhe French Northern
Railway has purchased a number OF Gramme

use them at their goods terminus and stores.
