CAPT. BATES thinks that men and
women are not deteriorating in physique,
and he ought to know, for he is the tall
est man in the world, and his wife the
tallest woman. They were at the
Palmer House, Chicago, not long ago;
and how these Chicago people did look
at them Capt. Bates is Kentuckian,
Z feet III inches high, weighs 1876
pounds, measures IS inches around the
chest, wears No. hat, 26-inch col
lar, No. Is boot, and 1882 years of age.
He dresses neatly in black, wears a
massive gold chain, attached to which is
a gigantic watch-a present from Queen
V1ctoria-wears a massive diamond in
his shirt bosom, and a fashionable col
lar and scarf; has a ruddy, healthy COM
plexion, pleasant smile, and is ready
talker. Altogether he is, as the reader
can very well see, an extraordinary giant,
for your mammoth men are generally
slovenly, dull, Ignorant fellows. Mrs.
Bates Is native of Nova Scotia, Of
Scotch descent. Her height is exactly
the same as that of her husband. Her
weight is $50 pounds. She is well
formed, and can hold her own in con-
versation. For the benefit of the female
reader it may be stated that it takes six
ty-fve yards Of goods to make her a
dress. Capt. Bates while in England
devoted much time to investigating facts
about giants, and giantesses, and found
nothing to substantiate the legends of
persons said to be over eight feet high /;
in fact, not an authentic record is to be
found of any one as tall and well formed
as himself and wife.

MANY of the prominent friends Of
Gen. John G. Fremont are urging the
President to appoint him to some posi-
ton beftting his former rank and sta
ton, as the first Presidential candidate
Of the Republican party and as Cat one
time) one of the leading military COM
handlers in the civil war. The state
ment is reiterated that the General is in
quite reduced circumstances and would
be glad to accept the Governorship OF
one of the Western Territories.

A CERTAIN chaplain during the last
war appropriated to his use horse
his own having given out. The act, for
some reason or other, displeased the
quartermaster, who was disposed to re-
gard it as stealing. In justification the
chaplain quoted the example of our
Savior who appropriated to His own use
another mans mule. "That's not a
parallel case" responded the quarter
master. . In the first place you are not
the Lord Jesus Christ. In the second
place you are not travelling toward Jeru-
salem, and in the third place that horse
is moi an ass. Please dismount."

The decision of case in the United
States Court at Indianapolis, Ind, is not
calculated to carry comfort to stockhold-
.ers in banks. The defalcation Of an Of
icer in the First National Bank of
Franklin, Ind, caused the bank to col
lapse, and it went into the hands of a
receiver. A test case was instituted to
try the liability of the stockholders,
one of whom was sued by the receiver,
and the court has decided against the
defendant to the full amount of his in
7terest in the concern-$22, 26O.

We have a story from Middletowp,
Conn.,, that eclipses the marvels OF
oleomargarine. The people of that
place have accidentally discovered how
to utilize bullfrogs by converting them
into churners of butter. The discovery
was thus reached: A farmer in the
neighborhood, having placed pail of
milk in spring of water to cool over
night, went there the next morning, and
found, it is solemnly asserted, instead
of the pail of milk, large bullfrog sit
ting in contemplative mood upon roll
of fresh butter. The sole explanation is
that the frog had jumped from the water
into the pail, and, in trying to extricate
himself, had, by diligent and continuous
strokes of his long legs, churned the
milk into butter. Such thing might
happen in rustic Connecticut, but
we will venture to assert that no bull
frog, however energetic and trained, or
however agricultural in instinct, could
in any given time convert the aqueous
kind of milk we get here into butter, or
even into tolerable buttermilk. There
fore, as we can receive no benefit from
the discovery, we shall not attempt to
put it In practice. We shall continue,
in our usual barbarous fashion, to eat
the hind legs of frogs, and leave it to
Mlddletown to employ them as natural,
spontaneous, self-acting churners. -

A Great Engineering Work,

A bridge of such proportions as the
world has never yet seen is proposed by
Sir Joseph Bazalgette for the purpose
of connecting the two banks of the
Thames in the vicinity of the Tower, and
the plan has received the approval of the
Metropolitan Board.
The operation contemplated by the
board consists IN building up a structure
of steel crossing the Thames in one ire
mendous span, clearing the water at such
an altitude that three-fourths of the
masted ships which require to do SO will
be able to pass under the elevated road
way without any hindrance, while the
remaining fourth will merely have to
lower their topmasts. London Stand

THE Russian head of the police de-
partment, Gen. Trepoff, after being shot
by the girl Vera Sassolitch, thought
himself mortally wounded, and made his
will, leaving about 100000 to his
family. This caused his dismissal, and
not public sentiment. The Gear had
always considered him poor and honest,
and was shocked to find that man who
he thought was serving him through
personal devotion had shared III the COM
mon corruption of official life.

THE portrait of Mrs. Joseph Aston,
Burr's beloved daughter Theodosia, is
soon TO be received at Washington. The
picture was washed ashore at Hatteras,
and was probably the only relic Of the
vessel in which Mrs. Aston sailed for
New York, never to arrive there. The
ship doubtless foundered at sea, though
for long time it was asserted that she
was taken by pirates, and that her crew
and passengers shared TIE inevitable
fate Of prisoners of these corsairs.

A GEORGIA man had lot of hogs that
were troubled with feas, and some one
told him that if he would get some Car
and lard, mix and rub it on the hogs,
it would kill the vermin. But the
gentleman, having no lard, rubbed tar
on them. For several days the hogs
failed to come up, and he concluded to
look for them. He found them in bed
in the woods, all stuck together.

You haven't grown bit for year.

You're such silent Polly
Are you never going to say word?

But he can chatter SO easily.
You're quite Ounce, my dolly!

PERFUMES. Scents appear TO influence
the smelling nerve in certain difnite de-
grecs. There is, as it we're, an octave
of odors, like an octave 10 music. Ger
tain odors blend in unison, like the notes
of an instrument. For instance, almond,
beliotrope, vanilla and orange blossoms
blend together, each producing different
degrees of nearly similar impression.
Again, VIC have citron, lemon, verbena
and orange peel, forming a higher oc-
tave Of smells, which blend in similar
manner. The figure is completed by
what we call semi-odors, such as rose
and rose geraniums for the half note !;
followed by aeur d'orange, full note.
Then we have patcbouly, sandal wood
and vitivert, many others running into
each other. From the perfumes already
known we may produce, by uniting them
in proper proportions, the smell Of al
most any flower. When perfumes are
mixed which strike the same key Of the
olfactory nerve, no idea Of different
scent is produced as the scent dies OF
from the handkerchief; but when they
are not mixed upon this principle then
we hear chat such and such perfume be-
comes "sickly,' or faint" after it has
been in use for a short time.
