MISGUIDED CLEMENoY.-We are sorry
to see that President Hayes has thought
proper to pardon counterfeiter. Couu-
terfeiting is a crime of the most deliber-
ate character, indicating a settled de-
pravity of mind and disposition to cheat
every one. Moreover, those most likely
to suffer from it are the poor and ignor-
ant who handle but little money, and are
consequently unable to distinguish be-
tween the spurious and the genuine. 1t
is a crime secretly perpetrated, and Of
ten carried on successfully and without
detection by the same person for years.
When counterfeiter is convicted it is
better that he should be made to serve
out his full term.--N. Y. Ledger.

MASTERS of Time.

The world is full of useless people
mere idlers, who are of no practical use in
the world. Eating and drinking and
sleeping constitute their chief employ
ment. With this provender made sure
they are quite satisfied. Habits of in
dustry they have not, and, moreover, it
is no part Of their plan to do anything
that is of practical value. They occa-
sionally make pretense of being busy
by devoting themselves to hunting, fish
ing or card-playing. This gives them
what they call good time. Animal
seltishness is the supreme law of their
whole being. Woman, in her way gen.
orally more delicate and less offensive, is
sometimes amenable to the same charge.
There are some good-for.nothing women
as well as men-too many of them for the
credit of the sex, with lives practically as
useless rs they are aimless. They can
manipulate the little punctilios of what
they regard as fashionable life. They
know how to spend money. No one can
beat them in using an opera-glass or in
laying plans for empty and proitless
amusement. In the matter of mere show
they are finished experts. And there
their usefulness-if usefulness it may be
called-ends. They are feminine idlers,
taxing the world for their subsistence,
but returning nothing to it. Estimate all
such persons, of both sexes, at their true
valuation, we do them no injustice in
saying that they are not really worth the
garment they wear or the bread it takes
to feed them. Existence thus conducted
is gross imposition upon humanity. By
the death of such people the world loses
nothing, since it has fewer paupers to sup

OF twenty three young men who only
last month stepped across the threshold
of life from an Eastern college, and went
forth upon the trackless ocean Of life to
battle with relentless fate and win re-
nown or a glorious death in the arena,
eleven are clerking in auction stores at
fourteen dollars month, one is running
fish.boat, two are learning the house
painting trade, one starved to death be
fore he had been out Of college week,
one is driving team on street contract,
two are tramps, and the others are living
with their widowed mothers, who are
their only support. Fact is, brethren,
when old life grapples its hooks into a
mans collar, it shakes all the arena and
ocean and battle business out of him so
quick that in six weeks, if he is alive, he
knows more in minute about the price
of pork and flour than he can tell you
about a Greek root in six months.-Bur-

A SINGULAR RESULT OF EMANCPA-
TIoN.-Strange as it may seem, the eman-
cipation of the Turks in Russia has in
creased the number of wolves in that
country. The serfs used to act as their
masters drivers in the great wolf-hunts,
which formed national pastime; but
since the Liberation, the wolf-hunt has
become unpopular, and consequently
wolves are having better time of it.
Thus, NJ. Lazarewski, in pamphlet
published by the Russian Ministerial
printing office, estimates the number of
wolves in European Russia alone at 200,-
900 and shows thatwhilethe average annu-
al loss of human livesin the years 1S49-51
was only 1875, the number of victims in
1875 was no less than 161. The loss in
domestic animals is valued at $12,500,.
600 annually, and that in wild animals
at about $42,OOO,O O,O0O.-NeD York E'en-

A ROMANCE OF THE REBELLToN.-At
the battles of Antietam and South Noun
tain a colonel was wounded-his arm
fearfuly shattered-and he was borne
from the field by his brothers and pri-
vate soldier. They carried him across
the country, a long and toilsome distance,
every step of which was torture to the
sufferer, to the house of Maryland
Union farmer. Then came the ubiqui-
tous Yankee surgeon with his glittering
knives and cruel saws, and made hasty
preparations to amputate the ailing mem
ber The farmer vehemently protested,
declaring that the man would die if the
arm was cut off. The surgeon insisted
that the patient would die if the arm
was not taken off, and the colonel's
brothers coincided with the surgeon.
But the determined old farmer dispatched
his son on his feetest horse across the
fields to the other side Of the mountain,
after his friend and neighbor, country
physician, and rank rebel When the
rustic Esculapius arrived there ensued a
long contention with the Yankee newer
of bones over the sufferer, but the result
was that the arm was saved, and, after
some weeks of careful nursing, the col
onel galloped off to join his regiment, a
comparatively sound man. He subse-
quentIy became Governor of Ohio, and
now fills the Presidential chair.--N. Y.

The war in the East has doubled the
price of canary bird seed. Asiatic Turkey
supplies large quantities of this bird prov
ender, but, since that territory has be-
come the theatre of the war, the supply
has been cut off. The import of the
seeds amounts to about four hundred tons
per annum. The little warblers will have
to change their diet until the Eastern
question is settled.

FOREIGN NOTES,

The Groote Markt or Great Market

lem, as containing the old church, with it's
world-f famed organ, aud the old Town Hall,
quaint and beautiful building, which has
survived the seige, and besides is the recep-
tacle of many of Franz Halls most beautl-
full paintings, and portrait of the brave
Maid OF Haarlem, bearing the standard her
self ready for death or victory.
The ex.Empress of Mexico, "poor.Car,
