Something About Fat Men.

All enterprising reporter, in writing Mr..
Lambert's obituary, said nature had en-.
dured all the trespass she could admit;
the poor mans corpulency had constant
ly increased until the clogged machinery
of life stood still, and this prodigy of q
mammoth was numbered with the dead.
His coffin contained 112 superficial feet
of elm, and was feet inches long, 4
feet 4 inches wide and 2 feet lrches deep,
and the immense substance of his legs
necessitated its being made in the form
of square case. 1t was built upon two
a1le~trees and four cog wheels and upon
these the ramains of the great man were
rolled into the grave. A regular dehcent
was made to the grave by cutting away
the earth tor some distance. The apart
mehts which he had occupied were on
the ground floor, as he had been long in
capable of ascending a staircase. The
window and part of the wall of the room
in which he died had to be taken down
to make passage for the coffin. Another
great man was grocer, named John
Bright, living at Maldon in Essex. He
may have been said to have been born
great, and he was of family noted for
the great size and appetites Of its men,
bers. Bright enjoyed good health
married at the age Of 20, and had five
children. He was cheerful companion,
a kind husband, tender father, good
master and an honest man. He died in
his thirtieth year at the pet weight of SIC
pounds. His coffin was three feet three
inches broad at the shoulders and more
than three feet deep. A way was cut
through the wall and staircase of his
house to let it down into tho shop. It was
drawn to the church on a low-wheeled
carriage by twelve men, and was let down
into the grave by an engine fixed upon
the church for that purpose. After his
death q wager was laid that fivs men,
each twenty-one years of age, could be
5uttoned in his waistcoat. It was tried,
and not only five men but seven men,
were inclosed in it without breaking a
stitch or straining button. Navarro
has not quite reached the proportions Of
either OF these men, but he is quite young
yet, and if he increases in the next ten
years as much as he has in the past ten,
he will 60 down to history as the fattest
man on record.

On arriving at the reservoir tn q Captain

great upon the unpuddied bottom, and
bid fair to iDiure the drain pipes, the
water was run off again. The escape

the water rushed rapidly along the

RUSSIA'S FIRM POLICY IN
SISTED UPON.
WHAT ENGLAND EXPECTED.

LONDON, Jan. IA junction between
the corps of Generals Melikoff and Ter
gukassef south Of Erzeroam is believed
to be imminent. The Russians are ad>
vancing toward Balburt, where the Turks
are concentrated in force and battle is
expected soon. General Loris Melikofi
has gone to Tiflis and General Heymann
has succeeded him. 1t is thought the
attack on Erzeroum will be delayed
until Melikof's return, which cannot be
before the end of January.
The troops under Fuad Pacha defend
ing the Ikhtiman defile, have been rein-
forced, and 1t is believed the pass is now
impregnable.
The Bucharest correspondent reports
that Sofia is viIl aally isolated from COM
munication with Adrianople and Nisch,
although apparently not yet completely
invested.
1t is announced from Constantinople
that the peace party is making strenu>
Gus efforts. 1t is reported they have
been Joined by Mahmoud Damad Pacha,
who has hitherto been the mainstay. of
the war party. The peace party have
gained ground considerably, both in the
Palace and Senate, and IL seems probable
that Turkey will consent to make direct
overtures to Russia.
A telegram received in Paris asserts
that the Porte has decided to accept an
armistice. The Porte, however, has
hardly had time to come to such a de-
cision.
The PaU Mall Gazette, in a leading
article commenting on the supposed
Russian answer to England's note, says
it IS what most people expected, and it
will be.more profitable to consider what
is likely to follow than fling angry words
at what was well foreseen. awe may
now expect the strongest pressure to be
put on Turkey to make peace outright
with her foe. We suppose resettlement
Of the Eastern question by Russia and
Turkey is not thought desirable by any
Englishman who understands the tenure
on which our empire is held, nor is it
conceivable that England can with safety
allow the acquisition of Black Sea ports
and rectificalion of the Asian frontiers
to be made while she remains mute" 1t
must be remembered that it is not yet
certain that the reported Russian answer
is more than conjecture, although it is
possibly very accurate conjecture.

THE BLAND SILVER BILL-PURPosEs
OF IT'S UPPORTERs-IMPoR
AMENDMENTS TO BE OFFERED.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 81, 1s77.-There
is no doubt that the extreme Silver bill
men dread the Presidents veto. They
feel certain of passing the Bland bill
through the Senate, but they are not at
all certain Of their ability to get a two
thirds vote for it In both houses over
the veto. But, unless they change their
tactics, they will vote down all amend
ments and send the bill to the President
in its worst form.
A number Of amendments will be Of
fered and discussed, the chief among
them one that the debt and custom du-
ties shall be paid In gold and that silver
shall for all other purposes be made a
legal tender to the amount of 200. 1t
is also probable that an amendment will
be offered demonetizing gold and making
silver the only coin of the country, but
in this case also making the debt and
the customs revenue payable in gold.
Novel as this proposition would be- 1t has
in its favor SO eminent financial aus
thority as the late Walter Bagehot, OF
the London Economist, who last year
suggested that if the United States wish
ed TO continue the use of silver it might
perhaps be the most practical and least
Objectionable way to demonetize gold al
| once.
While the President would undoubt-
edly veto the Bland bill he would, it i.
generally agreed, sign bill making sill
yer legal tender to almost, and perhap:
quite, any amount, provided it made the
debt and interest on it payable in gold
That is to say for purposes Of mere homt
imitation the silver men can probably
carry the day. Among the amendment
offered will be one in accordance will
Secretary Sherman's ideas. He has helt
that as the fractional currency has beer
nearly all redeemed in silver il wouIt
now be well TO begin redeeming th,
small ereenbacks below IS in the sam,
way, and this would require at least
couple Of years to accomplish, whsi
they were all replaced by silver it woult
then be time enough to take anothe
step.
