Ciyility In Business,

The great want in New York is civil
ity in trade. Stewart, a short time re-
fore he died, said that one of the g, sat
plaques of his life was to find salesman
that would be civil to poor people who
wanted a few needles and some tape. To
ladies that traded in satins and laces
men would be polite. But the same sales
man would snub a small buyer. 1t is
the universal complaint thatoficials are
Impairment. One can hardly get a civil
answer in trade. One of our car con-
ductors came up the other morning to
the Grand Central depot. His car was
stopped two blocks below. The train
left at twelve. A dozen people we're in
the car who wanted to take the noon
train. Some of them were aged and de-
crepit. Instead of announcing that his
car would be detained ten minutes he
jumped off, bought a paper and an ap-
pie, came into the car and began to eat
and read. When asked if the car was
going to move he simply shouted, eli
you want the twelve train you better be
lively" All his load lost that train
through his logged incivility. / saw 8
lady ask for a bunch of tickets at one Of
the ferry offices. A mere lad threw
down two punches. The lady said she
wanted but one package. The boy flew
into a passion, as if the woman had com
mitted some great crime, because he hat
misunderstood her. He really abused
her so that the woman left in tears
During the Centennial season a little o
the old-time c ,urtesy would have been
healthy infusion.

Fires in America.
[~Chambers's Journal

The exceeding dryness of the atmos-
phere in the United States produces
such an infammability in buildings,
that when a fire breaks out it proceeds
with surprising velocity. Owing to this
circumstance, Americans have organ
lied the most perfect system in the
world of extinguishing fires, though all
their efforts are often in vain. A stran-
ger in New York or Boston would be as
tonished at the immense uproar caused
by an outbreak of fire. Bells are rung,
gongs sounded, and steam fre-engines
rush along the street, regardless of ev-
erything. The unaccustomed stranger
is apt to make a run of it when he sees
the engines coming; the American SIM
ply steps on to the " sidewalk" or into
a "store" for a moment. 1t is provided
by the city government that the Off
GERS and men, with their teams and ap-
paratus, shall have the right of way
while going to a fire, through any street,
lane, or alley" etc.. and most unre-
seryedly do the said officers and men
make use of this permission. If any old
woman's stall is at the corner of a street
round which the steamers must go, there
is no help for it; over it goes. If a
buggy is left standing at a corner, the
owner must not be surprised if but
three wheels are left on it when he re.
turns. Accidents of this latter kind,
however, are rare; people recognize and
yield willingly the right of way; and
the quicker the engines go to a fire, the
better pleased everybody is. 1t is quite
a point of rivalry among the firemer
who shall get the first water on a fire
and it is mentioned always in the report
of the engineer.

Mrs. stockholm,s Discovery.

1t is always a good thing for a wife to
read her husbands letters when she can
get an opportunity. In nine cases out
Of ten she will find a great deal that is
funny in them, and in nearly all a
divorce suit at least. This was what Mrs.
Stockholm, Poughkeepsie, found in one
of Mr.. Stockholm's, letters, and that
gentleman was greately surprised to hear
about it. This letter was not written to
his wife: men of Mr.. Stockholm's kind
don't waste their sweetness writing to
their own wives. Stockholm wrote to
his "dear Lizzie" about his dreadful
lonely condition and his anxiety to see
her " more sweet and lovely than ever"
and winding up by begging her to allow
him to imagine that he was kissing
those prettylips." This was such a deli.
cious thought, apparently, that it must
have turned the head of Stockholm, fol
he folded his missive and addressed it to
Mrs. Lizzie Cobb, Orange county, and
as the stupid old post-ofice department
didn't seem to know what part of Orange
county Stockholm's inamorata lived in,
the letter was returned to his own ad,
dress. The innocent and unsuspectine
carrier left it at the writer's house wher
the writer wasn't there, and the unsus
pecting Mrs. Stockholm Immediately
penetrated the true inwardness of the
business and went into Mysteries withoui
any unnecessary delay. She afterwar6
called upon an attorney, and it SEEM
unnecessary to say, there was a sui
for divorce. Mr.. Stockholm was yer,
much surprised on Monday when h
learned what had become of his letter
it was the first he had heard of it sine
it was written in 1878. Mrs. Stockholm
got her divorce, and husbands will g
on writing love-letters and wives will G
on looking out for them, forever.

An Old F~orty-Niner.

A fossilized Argonaut thus character
istically describes an old comrade:
CHOW there was an old-timer that we
used to call Boston, and warn't mean eff
he was a Yank. Why, Pve knowed Bos-
ton to get up in the middle o. the night
to carry feed to a sick mule as he'd laid
down to die long side Boston's cabin.
He tended him like a mother, an eff it
hedn't bin fur a cold snap comm on,
he'd a fetched tibet animal round all
right. Even thenI b'lieve he'd a made
the rifle eff the burned cuss of a mule
hedn't kicked the fire out one night
after Boston he'd TUX the trouble, in his
motherly regard for the mules comfort,
to run out an fire UP close to the critters
hind hoofs, he shinnin' roun' with
nothin' but a hickory shirt. The burned
cuss let fly both heels to oncet an froze
to death afore mornin'. 1t served the
ungrateful animil mighty right, but 1
b'lieve Boston d wore Grape, only he
was 'fraid the boys d laugh at him. Eff
Boston was a friend to a man he'd dis
count q brother and give him points
ev'ry time. I've seen Boston tackle Bill
Thompson when he was dead gone in
with the horrors-Bill wantin' to clean
out Mormon Creek from Dorsey's saw
mill to the Stanislaus River-an' bring
him out every time. He was the best
doctor for a bad case O. jim-jams I ever
seen. Boston never.aid hev any luck to
speak of but once in his life, an tibet
was when he tux thet trip down to Mex
ico-Durengo, l think-an' struck it
rich in silver. Thet was in $50, an we
! didn'thear no more O. him till '63, when
Brad got a letter from him tellin' how
the greasers was goin' to buy his claim
for a million, he reservin' the t~ailin's,
which he said he'd ~prospected an found
ID pay the nash'nal debt when they was
smelted. Good luck didn't make Boston
proud a bit, not much; he didn't throw
off on his friends, but tol' Brad to tell
his old pards-which was me, an Jack
Dunbar, an Sam Price, an Little Steve
an Jim Hickey, an Fandango Frank
an Tom Stoddard-thet he'd send Vi
doubloons enough to go home on, an
keep US till we passed in cur checks; an
he'd done it, too, if death hadn't scoopeG
him in a muss with some greaser monte
men. I've bin down on greasers wuss'r
pizen ever sence. They wasn't satisfied
with Rivas, an the boys they sent VI
the iume thar; an Crabbe's party a
Chavorca wasn't bloody 'nough for 'em
but they must go an cut poor Boston
wind. Pll bet he did more for then
cussed greasers than their own brother
would a'done; but it was like the mule
they didn't know the color O. graft

Shields, of Missouri, a Democrat. A long
and exciting debate ensued on a point Of

trying to force the issue on the House. The
question was finally postponed till Monday

Mind your OWN Business.

If people would only abstain from in
termeddling in things with which they
have no concern, and which an unjustif-
able interest, arising from a prurient
disposition of petty curiosity, prompts,
how smoothly affairs would proceed in
families and society, and how much mis-
chief might be avoided and vexation
spared The happiness and tranquility
of life depends upon %triies, and by such
is much misery and disquietude caused.
Z A prying spirit only administers to its
own uneasiness; and those who are on
the watch for causeso of %ofense, find, that
one day or another, they come home to
them in an accommodating wave, like
the Dutchman, centuries ago, who cut
open a dyke to injure a neighbor, and
drowned himself, and laid two provinces
under water. Great events spring from
little causes, and matters, %unimportant
in themselves. have a direful effect in
connection with others.
1t is always best to look upon the shin
ing aspect ofthings and not worry ones
selfin torturing every look, gesture and
expression into a preconceived notion and
converting an imaginary grievance into
a real trouble. There is an unhappy
fancy in some people to parade them
selves as injured and long-suffering indi
viduals; as patient martyrs, and osten
tatious victims of the neglect and indif
ference of others. This proceeds from
obstinacy, pride, and an ill-temper ant
q%uerulous temperament, of which they
are not conscious. They fancy that they
are a personiication of amiability, anc
while the world is ringing with praises
Of their exemplary resignation, they lit
tie think thatthey have occasioned them
selves the very sorrows of which the.
complain; and that, had they know
how to practice the great maxim, "bea
and forbear," the farce of the self-tor
mentor would have wanted a prominen
illustration.

NEWS SUMMARY.
MasnlnRten.

The failure of Congress to make adequate
appropriations to enable Schurz to protect
the timber will have a disastrous effect. In
Minnesota alone there are two hundred and
twenty-five cases pending, involving nearly
one hundred million feet of Government
logs, and forty thousand cross-ties, which
will have to be abandoned. 1t transpires
that many wealthy and heretofore respecta-
Bile lumber dealers are involved, and it is al.
legged that they are bringing powerful
influence to bear here to prevent Congress
from giving Secretary Schurz help in this
manner. The cases above referred to arr
supported by testimony sufficient to give
the Government a verdict in every in
stance. All cases thus far in Minnesota
have resulted in a verdict for the Govern
ment.

az WENT on Saturday" writes a Paris
correspondent, "to a horsefesh dinner
given by a n. Ducrsix, V~eterinary-in
Chief to the Etat Major of Paris. 1t
was prepared by an ordinary cook, the
host wishing his guests to know that the
food placed before them owed none of
its palatable virtues to extraordinary
culinary science. Everything except the
sweets at dessert were of Chevaline ex-
traction. I thought the soup better
than bullion made from beef. The
bouilli was very toothsome; Cheval "a
la mode was also excellent: but the
crowning dish was a roast flet, which
was very tender and succulent. There
was no flavor or odor thatin the remot-
est way reminded one of the stable. The
weak point of the feast was the salad,
which was dressed with oil taken from
horses feet. M. Ducreix is an enthu-
siast, and dreams of nothing less than
ch~eapening meat, and rendering the
lives Of horses tolerable by getting people
to become hippophagists. If the u1ti-
mate fate of the horse was to be sent to
the butchers shambles instead of to the
slaugther-house, cabmen, he opines,
would be more merciful to the beasts
they drive, and the poor would be able
to fall back from dear beef and mutton
upon cheaper and more nutritive meat
Since hippophagy has been introduced
here more than twelve thousand horse:
annually have fallen into the stewpani
and soup pots of the French capital. II
appears, indeed, that the supply il
scarcely equal to the demand. On sit
ting down Ifelt, Iconfess, somewhat ner
vous. 1t occurred to me thatsundry chew
aline diseases were taken by incubation
M. Ducroix, who suspected my misgiv
ings, informed me that the inspection O.
horsefesh for the flesh market is NOR,
close than hat of beef. The living ami
NAL has to pass a veterinary surgeon
and when it is reduced to the condition
of butchers meat it is again subjected Il
a microscopic examination. Some mem
beers of the Society for the protection o
Animals have invited M. Ducroix t
London to make arrangements for
horsefesh banquet at the Crystal Palace
prepared by a French cook.
