Meeting of Milk Dealers.

The Brooklyn and New York milk dealers held mass meeting and ap- pointed committee to look after bill now before the Legislature. It provides that all the railroads which have their termini in New York shall deliver the milk they transport in the city, at tariff of one cent per quart, or forty cents per can of ten gallons, this charge to include the returning of the empty cans to the station from which they were shipped. The railroad company must also give the shipper of the milk receipt there for, the same as for any other class of goods. Much of the milk consumed in New York is brought over the Erie Rail- way, which has it's delivery in Jersey City, and the milk dealers are compelled to cross and recross the ferry, at the cost of annoyance and delay. The Erie Rail- way charges ffty-fve cents per can for transportation, which is forty three per cent. of the cost of the milk, and by the Hudson River or Harlem Railroads, which charge sixty cents per can, the percentage is nearly forty seven. There is other kind of freight for the transpcr- tation of which the railroads charge half as much as the article itself is worth.

Gold and it's Premium.

On the 18th of January, 1862, the first premium was paid on gold in the United States, when it was quoted at 103. In July of that year the premium rose to 12O, and by the end of the year it was quoted at 1333, On the 11th of July, 1864, the quotation was 285, or 1855 pre- mium, which was the eliminating point of the advance. In April of 1865, it had declined below 15O, and was not again above that figure until June, 1866, when it was carried up to 167a, selling at that price on the 18th. The year 1867 opened with gold at 132 to 133, and it did not go lower until about the close of the year 1869, when it was about 120. The "Black Friday" operations on the 24th of Sep tember, 1869, carried the premium up to 1624, and on the same day it sold at 133, In 1870 the range was downward, and since the 18th of February of that year it has not been up to 12O. On the 9th of November, 1873, the height of the panic,
 gold was down to 1064, and since then the highest rate was 1173 in June, 1875.

A New View of It.

Walter Smith, Director of the Massa- chusetts Art School, spoke as follows to the juvenile offenders at Deer Island.
 It is quite out of the line of the oratory usually indulged during .the visitations of this kind, but valuable for all that
 Here is the passage: "You have been told to-day that you have most of you committed crimes, and that you are down just now, but that you can reform and get up again. I've no doubt that that is true but there is another view of this matter which | take, and that is that your crimes against society are not half as black or numerous as society's crimes against you. The blame doesn't all be- long to one side. Keep up your hearts, boys, even if you are down for the so- ciety which cannot get along without shutting up 300 boys on an island in Boston Harbor is bigger failure than you are you may be down, but this boasted civilization of the nineteenth century is lower down. Don't you go and believe that we have all come here to-day to patronize you. We have come to ask you to forgive us, and make friends with us. We want to atone to you for our blunders. The sight of 300 boys shut up in prison is enough to make a thoughtful man shudder, the angels weep, and everybody lose faith in the progress of the age." -.

A Military Superstition.

The military superstition that it is dangerous to change the color of 8 horse during campaign has been illustrated by General Skobe1eff. He does not like 8 gray horse, but he happened to ride one in the first battle, and soon came to believe that he could never be killed on horse of that color A correspondent of Sedalia paper, who served under Shelby during the American civil war, states that that officer had a similar su- perstition. His color was sorrel, and he firmly believed that he would never be killed while mounted on horse of that hue. He was wounded three times, but never while riding sorrel horse. He had twenty-four horses killed under him in the various engagements in which he was not wounded, and in every instance the horse that went down under him was a sorrel. Once bail struck the brim of his large felt hat, and scratched his forehead, and he fell heavily from the saddle; but he was on his feet in an in stant, shouting to his men, "I cannot be killed to-day, for I am on sorrel horse."

Tho Oldest Meat in the World.

An account in Russian paper of re- cent explorations in Siberia relates that one of the travellers, while proceeding along an estuary of the River Lena, found pack of wolves devouring the frozen flesh of @ mammoth, which had been exposed by the breaking away of 8 cliff, and was apparently in perfect state of preservation. This is probably the oldest preserved meat in the world, compared with which the most ancient Egyptian mummy is recent pottage. More mammoths are doubtless buried in the same locality, and we may yet live to see the gourmands of Paris indulging their tastes for curious dishes upon Jlet de mammoth, fresh from Siberia, after a few score thousand years of storage in nature's ice cellars.

Jesse POmeroy, the Child Murderer.

Probably there is more curiosity con- corning the prison career of Jesse Pome- roy than any other convict in the Massa- chusetts States Prison, says the Boston Globe. This singular phenomenon of 8 fiend and murderer is even more singu- lar since his incarceration for life in 8 lonely cell than he was in the palmy Lays of his atrocities. He has, in fact, be- come quite an exemplary young man, and is evidently determined upon acquir- ing thoroughly classical education. He is away by himself in cell in that part of the prison known as the "Upper Arch, > out of the sight of everything and every body, and the only sounds which greet his ears are the whistles of the passing locomotives and rumbling trains. Three times day only is this solitude broken by the appearance of keeper with his meals, and then not word passes be- tween them. It should be added in quail fication, however, that the Chaplain visits him occasionally, and also that his moth- CT and brother are allowed interviews with him every three months. This is in accordance with the general rules of the prison, all of which are applicable to Pomeroy, with the terrible exception that his confinement is to be solitary during his natural life. During the regular working hours he is employed in making shoebrushes.

Circumstantial Evidence.

The old controversy which has so long occupied the public mind, whether di- rect or circumstantial evidence may the more safely be depended on, still con- ! tinues. Elementary writers and jurists maintain that in both civil and criminal cases, circumstances alone often lead to conclusion far more satisfactory than direct evidence can produce. But lay men do not very generally concur in this view. Especially do they doubt whether it is ever justifable to take human life on evidence which is all circumstantial, and at this very time great effort is be- ing msde to secure the communication of sentence of death soon to be executed on 8 prisoner in this State, the sole ground of the movement being that the conviction was based entirely upon cir eumstances, without any direct proof.
 Slight circumstances, put together, sometimes seal suspected persons doom. On recent criminal trial, when the defendant was convicted and sen- fenced to fifteen months imprisonment, principal point of the circumstantial evidence against him was that the foot marks in the mud about the place where the offence was committed, exactly cor responded with the nails in his shoes, from which there was one nail missing.
 In case of arson in Massachusetts the perpetrator of the crime was detec- ted in. very singular manner. He hired horse and wagon and drove distance of fourteen miles, on a rainy night, to set fire to the house of an old couple who had some time previously refused him their daughter in marriage. In the night the weather cleared off cold, and the mud froze stiff, so that the tracks of the horse could be very distinctly traced in the morning.
 It happened that the animal, in conse- quence of a cracked hoof, had been shod in peculiar way on one foot one of the corks was turned lengthwise, instead of being made in the usual manner, at right angles with the heel of the shoe. This peculiarity led to the conviction of the prisoner. He was sentenced to be hanged but the punishment was after wards commuted to imprisonment for life.
 In another case murderer who shot his victim was detected by finding that an unconsumed paper wad from the gun with which the shooting was done, SUD- piled piece of newspaper in the prison er's possession. By such circumstances trivial in themselves, great crimes are of ten proven.

The Naval Battle of the Future.

The question of how naval battle would now be fought is often raised, but is exceedingly difficult to answer. One thing is certain-the hostile squadrons will be kept in rapid motion for the pur- pose of efecting as well as evading an attack by ram, which will be the first object sought after. Thus the distance of the enemy will be varying constantly, and @ correct estimation of the range will be almost impossible therefore, the chance of hitting at any particular part will be very small. It will be seen that upon the judgment and nerve of the of- ficer in command will now, more than ever, depend the issue of an engagement. The speed of the ships, the necessity of closely watching every movement of the enemy so as instantly to make the proper counter-move, the absolute need of prompt decision, will prevent moment for reflection or consultation. The helm and the engines must be under the cap- tain's instant control. He and those by him on deck will alone be able to see the enemy at the frequent times when he is obscured by smoke from the battery be- low, and to distinguish between friend and foe and his quick perception will be requisite to determine the proper di- rection and range for his guns, as well as avoid firing into friends. The extreme importance of the life of the officer in command of 8 squadron, so long as the battle lasts, must also be apparent. In the old wars, the skill, judgment and de- termination of our naval commanders were chiefly exhibited by the manner in which they sought out their adversaries and brought them to battle. Hostile fleets were sometimes in sight of each other for days-calms, light winds, or fogs preventing their approach-each commander endeavoring by skilful sea- manship to gain the weather-ga But the action fairly commenced, there was little manmuvring was hard fighting; the ships were laid alongside an enemy, and the valor of our sailors settled the matter. If the captain were disabled, the duty of his successor was simple and self-evident if he were incompetent, his deficiencies could be made up by his principal officers; if he lacked courage, his men supplied the want. Nelson's genius had made all the necessary dis positions for battle both at the Nile and Trafalgar long before the action com menced; the captains had only to steer their ships for their allotted adversary and the rest was done by the crew. Had Nelson been killed by the first shot fired at Trafalgar, the issue of the battle would have been the same. But how different now From the beginning to the end of an action rapid and constant manoeuvrlng will be required the ships must be kept firmly in hand and skilfully guided ; all the best experience of the Admiral will be in continual request, and should he be killed or disabled at 6 critical mo- ment, the consequences would probably be most serious. It is not too much to say that the result of naval engagement in these days will depend entirely upon the skill of the superior officers, in de- fault of which the courage and discipline of the crews will avail little.

Marriage Without Acquaintance.

A careful study of the very numerous suits for divorce which are tried in our courts, leads one to the conclusion that prolific source of these suits is to be found in the marriage of persons on 1n- sufficient acquaintance. During the days of courtship both parties, as the phrase is, put their best foot forward each seeks to appear to the utmost pos sible advantage in the estimation of the other. This renders it more difficult than it would otherwise be for them to form a just and accurate estimate of each others character but it ought, at the same time, to engender an extra degree of caution aga1nst forming, in haste, too favorable an estimate.
 "What do yoR@t think of MT. -" was asked of afFexperienced man of the world. What opportunity have had to judge of his character ?'' was the re- sponse; "I have only seen him as the suitor for the hand of young lady of whom he is enamored. Of course he appeared vel under those circum- stances. He could hardly do otherwise. But to form any correct estimate of him, should want to see him in difficulties and under trials. I have no means of judging how he would appear then.'
 Much food for thought is furnished by these suggestive remarks of an ob- serving man.
 The hesitating prolongation of court ships for an indefinite and inofdinate length of time is wholly unjustifable. On the other hand, 8 marriage without thor ough preliminary acquaintance is liable and likely to lead to the most deplora- ble results. Marriage is regarded, at best, ,sas 8 venture, which is inevitably attended with some degree. of risk; but that is no reason for voluntarily closing one's eyes and wllfully making it leap in the dark.
 Never get married-never become en- gaged-says the Ledger, until you feel certain that of the marriage, or the en- gagement you will not repent. If you are in doubt, and cannot solve your doubt, then avoid the new relation rather than to enter into it surrounded by distressing uncertainties.

LOVE LlGHTENiS LABOR.

A good wife rose from her bed one morn, And thought, with nervous dread, Of the piles of clothes to be washed and more Than dozen mouths to be fed There were meals to get for the men in the
 field,
 And the children to fix away To school, and the milk to be skinned and
 churned,
 And all to be done that day. It had rained in the night. and all the wood Was as wet as wet could be; There were buildings and pies to bake, besides A lot of cake for tea. The day was hot, and her aching head Throbbed wearily, as she said: "H maidens but knew what good wives know They would be in no haste to wed! p Jennie, what do you think told Ben Brown?" Called the farmer from the well; And flush crept up to his bronzed brow And his eyes half bashfully fell. It was this" he said, and, coming near, He smiled, and stopping down, Kissed her cheek-"'twas this that you were
 the best
 And dearest wife in town" The farmer went back to the field, and the
 Wne,
 In smiling and absent way, Sang snatches of tender little songs She'd not sung for many day. The pain in her head was gone, and the clothes Were as white as the foam of the sea Her bread was light and her butter was sweet And as golden as it could be. Just think '' the children all cried in
 breath, "Tom Wood has run off to seal He wouldn't, know, if he only had As happy home as we.'' The night came down, and the good wife
 smiled To herself as she softly said: "'Iis so sweet to labor for those we love, !" It's not strange that maids will we'd"

NeighbOr Cough.

He imped along perhaps block, then said: '' Sharp pains affiict my hough j; would I were by some sunny tough, or managing the well-yoked plough, or resting meath the rustling bough, lulled by the gentle murmuring sough. But vain are all those wishes, though, 9 quoth he in accents sad and low; "Alas, I fear my cake is dough p With pain I heard my old friend through, and when at last we bade adieu, felt his fears would soon prove true.

WHZLE SOWING THE FLO WEIR
 SEED.

Sink, O little seed so round, Sink into the still, cold ground, In the dark away. In the earth must put thee, Little seed, so silently
 Looking at the day. Could'st thou know what thus Ido; Voice thy sore misgivings, too,
 An, what were thy cry! "Must I see the sun no morea Is my life so quickly OCT? Am I, then, to die ?" Be but brave and fear no harm, See, thy bed is soft and warm; a- Sleep but for an hour, 'r Then the light shall call thee forthi Thine shall be a perfect birth,
 Gods pure, spotless flower. I, too, must be hid away, Like as thou, from upper day,
 In the earth's cold night; Yet when He shall call me forth, shall rise away from earth,
 Glorified in light. -AGer the German of Chr. Sotnaid.

A woman with very singular his tory died in the Blackwells Island Aims house, New York. She was one hun dred and four years old, the widow of one of the Irish rebels of 179S, who fought at Oulert Hill. Her husband, mainly through her exertions, was par doned as he was being led to execution, but was immediately afterward sabered at her side by the yeomanry whom he had fought.
