A Frenchman on Borrowing.

"The Borrower" A sketch by Azure
lien Scholl in EEtene5'ent: The bor-
rowing race is the noble race. A native
pride, an instinct of sovereignty, are ap-
parent in the attitude of the borrower.
He who lends is sad and thoughtful;
Che necessity OF obedience is written on
his brow. Born TO be useful and
to be used, he has in his aspect
something humble and %forlorn, contrast
ed ~signally with the constant good hui
NOR, the air of conquest, the amiable au-
dacity of him that shears him. To the
borrowing class belong all great kings,
ministers and women. From Alcibiades,
through Caezar and Mirabeau the bril-
liant succession descends to the last rul-
ers of France, Spain and Turkey.
Health smiles on the borrowers brow
his faith in providence is firm, and Is
careless of the fluctuations in stocks.
Meum and tuupa, those sources of all hui.
man contention and miseries, pleas.
antly COMPOUNDED in bis eyes. The pres
ent has no care for him; the future can
have but little. The earth is his, and
the fullness thereof, and he has only to
enter upon his estates. Destroying vain
distinctions invented by legislators, the
a who lives by borrowing ~revives the
original idea of community. He alone
knows how TO live; he is the only origi-
nal aristocrat of the universe"

PORTRAITS BY TELEGRAP.
What Science Is Doing with the Subtle
Electrics Current.


1t has often been said that the science
of telegraphy is as yet only in its infancy.
What it will be when it reaches the age
Of maturity it would be difficult to saw
with certainty, but some idea NAV be
formed from the extraordinary Geographic
discovery just made in Paris. 1t appears
that some inventor has found out the
means of sending portraits by telegraph.
The modus operandi has not yet been
disclosed, but experiments have been
made, and-lt we are to believe the pa
pers--with complete success. The trial
was made by the police authorities of
Paris and Lyons. The portrait OF a Ly-
ons official was forwarded from Paris by
the new Geographic apparatus, and at
once recognized. In return the LYONS
police telegraph to Paris the portrait &C.
companied by the usual description. of a
clerk who had just absconded with bis
masters money, and the Paris police,
thanks to the telegraphic portrait, were
enabled 10 arrest the thief on his alight-
ing from the train at the Lyons railway
station. These facts are published on the
best authority, and, incredible as they
may seem, are DO doubt authentic. So
far the ingenius discovery is only being
employed for the detection eff criminals,
but it is evident that the police authori-
ties will not be able to ~monopolize it. and
that it will be turned to account by So
ciety at large under the various irving
circumstances of life, and more especially
10 the cases of deserted wives and nus.
bands, missing heirs, disconsolate lovers,
and similar interesting beings.

Washington and Andre,

The English historian, Chalmers. stated
that Washington ordered the gallows, on
which Maj. Andre was hung in 1880, to
be built in sight of the prisoner. This
accusation aroused the ire of the Ameri-
cans who fourished in the early part of
the century, No one was angler than
John Pintard, and heidi everything that
could be done to correct the mistake.
One day, sitting in his office, a venera-
BILE parsonage called Oh him, and as
usual the conversation turned on Andre.
"What ?" said Pintard, edo you know
anything about that execution ?"
~ do, for ! was one of the guards who
kept watch On him while in prison, and
who marched alongside him to the place

"Well, what did you do? Tell me- ex-
claimed Pintard,
"Nee took him from the house where
he was kept, ard marched along the road
until we turned into a lane, when
Andre shrank back, and with a shudder
said 1T that to be% The gallows
could be seen, and was seen by Andre
for the first time from the turn in the
lane"
"Of course Chalmers lied" said Pint
ard. Everybody knews that Washing.

that he might be shot, and now every
body knows that Andre was not in sight
of the building of his ga lows"
