The New York Police on Duty.

Every street and broad alley in the
city is divided into a series of posts
or " BEATS" patrolled by single Off
Ger, which vary in length according to
locality, some in the northern part of
the island being many blocks in length,
others in the lower wards are scarcely
two blocks long, and are intersected by
other posts. Besides this, officers are
stationed at much-frequented corners
and street-crossings, at railway stations,
steamboat landings, wharves, ferries,
places of amusement, in the municipal
offices, and elsewhere on special duty.
1t is common cant that a policeman
is always present-exceptw when wanted.
In the lower part of New York this is
more slang than sense. How far will
you walk in the region of Canal street,
for example, before meeting police
man-that is, if you look for one, for it
is his policy to remain inconspicuous?
Lower Broadway, dim and gloomy at
midnight, is full of police furiously
shaking the handles of the doors to be
sure that all are securely locked, peer
ing through the little peep-holes in the
iron shutters to see that no burglars are
at work in the stores where lights are
left burning all night, or that an incip-
lent fire is not working insiduous de-
struction; lurking out of sight in shady
door-ways while they watch suspicious
loungers; or standing in groups of two
or three on the corners where two posts
intersect and rOundsman has hap
pened to join them. Leaving Broad
way and glancing down dark and fear
full back streets, like Bayard or Eliza
BETH West Houston or Sullivan, you
are sure to see the Pickering light of
the street lamps and the ruddy glare of
red sign-lanterns reflected from the sill
yer shield and brass buttons. owhere
you may, you meet these erect and
wide-awake watchmen. They are
strolling through the deserted avenues
of Washington Market; they are watch
ing intently the excited throng in the
Bowery; they are keeping an eye on
rogues in Madison Square; they are
pulling silently in and out of the shad-
ows of the great ships lying asleep at
the wharves; they are browsing as ere
serves in the thirty-four station
houses, ready on telegraphic summons
to 90 to the care of fire or the subdu-
ing of riot The worshiper, coming
from his weekly prayer-meeting, finds
the policeman at his door, enforcing
his coveted quiet. The family that goes
for days recreation at Rockaway is
sure that its pleasure will not be spoiled
by rowdyism, for group of officers
stand on the deck, seemingly absorbed
in the magniticence of a summer morn
ing on the bay, yet ready-ready! The
opera-glasses sweeping the audience at
Faust or 1.-The Shaughran," catch
sight of blue-coat or two behind the
ranks of white ribbons and pretty
plumes. Scribner for July.

A New Invention.

About three years ago j. N. Bennett
conceived the idea that a canal boat
could be propelled by steam without
causing the commotion of the water to
wash the banks, and since that time he
has been working on this idea. Re-
Gently he engaged the assistance of C.
Uller, a machinist, and between them
they have constructed couple of
wheels, which there is little doubt will
answer the purpose. The wheels con-
sist of four paddles each, and are made
to revolve vertically. Each of the pad
dies is ten inches long by four inches
wide, and they strike the water in rota-
ton, and in coming back to position
they turn edgewiSe. The boat needs
no steering apparatus or rudder, as the
wheel can be worked so as to perform
the turning and steering part.
A few days ago the invention was
tested. All old canal boat was procured
and an engine placed in the stern. En-
gineer Jackson, of Che Board of Public
Works, gave permission to enter the
canal, and an experimental trip to the
starch factory was made. A number of
ventiOn worked. Before starting the
boat was taken up the river short
distance and then turned, which salts
fed those on board that nothing was
deficient in the steering part. In the
canal the boat left the dock at the foot
of Friend street at four o'clock, and ar
rived at the starch factory in one hour.
The distance could have been made in
less time had not the draft in the en-
CINE been deteriorated by cutting the
smoke-stack and thus letting air in
above. On account of this the steam
could not be kept up. When the steam
was high the boat would make good
time, but the boat was far too heavy to
be propelled without high pressure of
steam. The commotion of the water
was carefully watched by those on
board. They expressed themselves that
the banks would not be washed by the
agitation of the water. The trial was
hardly fair one, as the boat and en-
CINE did not by any means correspond
with each other, the boat being very
large and much waters soaked, and the
engine but a few horse power. The
machine was not in perfect working
order, nor could it be expected to be,
as it requires some time in testing any
invention to make it do the required
work. The first trial was pronounced a
success, and by little more ingenuity,
Messrs. Bennett and Uller will have
another useful thing completed. The
machine was patented in April, 1871

Now will leave you, and join the la
dies, for they are going downstairs.
You can follow us presently"
So saying, the young lady hen went
away, and Speckleye took long drink
at the patent fountain, and then she
turned to see where the others had
gone.
She found they had gone out the door
and down the stairs into the yard. And
she looked out the door for a moment,
and then she said in despair:
Il never can get down those stairs.
| should certainly fall 0 dear! How
dreadful it all is! No fields; no nice
barrel to sleep in; no sunny burrows in
the plowed land. where dust-baths are
plentiful no grasshoppers, and-no-
Dear, dear! Can anything be so dread
full as hen-hOuse with modern i'm
proyements?"
How long she would have continued
this dismal wall can never be known,
for just then man appeared and caught
her and took her away.
This is the stupid hen from the
country. She will make an excellent
soup"
And so she did; for, though she was
stupid, she was very tender.
As for the intellectual Mr. Rooster
and his heightened ladies, they soon
came to grief; and everybody declared
that they were uncommonly tough and
only fit for pies and stews.-N Y. IN

DO YOU REMEMBER?

Do you remember day long past,
When we roamed alone through a wind-hlled
wood,
And came to ledge of rock at last,
Where with hands clasped close we silent stood
We heard the murmur of shining streams,
The whisper of leaves that swayed above.
And over our souls swept the golden dreams
That come with the dawn of love
Do you remember the sigh that stirred
The bending grass in the rising breeze.
That brought us the note of a distant bird,
And wild, weird murmurs from far off seas?
The birds call came like happy song,
And We gave no heed to the seas sad tone,
For fear is forgotten. and hope is strong.
With love- great gladness known.
Do You remember? will you forget2
These words are common and quickly said;
But they will be treasured when eyes are wet
With the tears of those who mourn us dead.
Not dead, but sleeping; we cannot die;
Our souls are deIthless by loves sweet grace
And wherever Gods glorious kingdoms lie,
There shall see your face

MRS. Redster told me he was in

MRS. Redster told me he was in
these ruins"
Hope filled the prisoners heart.
Raising his voice, he cried for help.
His cries were heard, for in little
while he heard many feet descending
the stairs and approaching the door of
the dungeon in which he was impris-
oned.
Five minutes later, Sir Lyon Sc
clar, pale and weak from the effects of
his confinement, stood in the open air,
and told his story, which exactly tai
lied with that of Mrs. Redster.
The officers of justice were immedi-
ately set upon John Clancy's track, and
before nightfall he and his accomplish,
Jane, were safe in prison to await the
punishment of their crime.
Mr.. Hale and Sir Lyon went with
Ronald to his home, where they re-
ceived a cordial welcome. Mrs. Reds
ter had quite recovered from her tenn
porary indisposition, and did her best
to promote the comfort of her guests.
But both Beatrice and Ronald were
silent and preoccupied. They knew
that Lyon looked upon Beatrice as his
intended wife, and were sad in antici-
patton of the future.
AT late hour they stepped out in
the garden together.
Beatrice" said Ronald, 81 shall not
stay here to see you become that mans
wife. | am going to leave the coun-
try"
go Ronald! What will become of
your mother?" asked the weeping girl.
"She shall come with me-together
we will leave the accursed place"
Are you angry with me?" said
Beatrice, timidly.
yes" answered Ronald. eft is
true that it was your mothers wish
that you should marry Sir Lyon Seclar
because he is a rich man. But your
father told me to-day that had the
best right to you because
because you saved my life," inter-
rupted the girl. 80 Ronald! how can
| thank you for that brave act?n
"By becoming my Wife" replied
Ronald. "Will you Beatrice?"
80 Ronald dare not! The thought
of disobeying my mother is terribler'
"And yet you love me?'
Yes, yes!'
"Then you shall marry him, Miss
Beatrice" said Lyon Seclar, suddenly
stepping in front of the astonished
pair. Pardon me for listening; |
suspected you loved each other, and
determined to find out for myself.
Beatrice, you need not disobey your
mother, for refuse to marry YOU. Mr..
Redster, you are brave man and
worthy of this young lady. Take her,
then, and be happy"
A month later, and Beatrice became
the happy wife of Ronald.
The old hall was rebuilt, and soon
afterward Mr.. Hale found for it new
mistress. The former name of the
present Mrs. Hale was Mrs. Redster.
Sir Lyon Seclar did not wear the
willow long, but soon found for him
self a bride. The three families ever
manned toward each other pleasant So
cial relations, and finally forgot the
dark time of trouble which all had
passed through.

Rain.

THE first water-how much it meansi
Seven-tenths of man himself is water.
Seven-tenths of the human race rained
down but yesterday! 1t is much more
probable that Caesar will flow out of a
bung-hole than that any part of his re-
mains will ever stop one. Our life is
indeed a vapor, breath, little moist
ure condensed upon the pane. We
carry ourselves as in phial. Cleave
the flesh, and how quickly we spill out!
Man begins as a fish, and he swims in
sea of vital fluids as long as his life
lasts. His first food is milk; so is his
last and all between. He can taste and
assimilate and absorb nothing but liq
uids. The same is true throughout all
organic nature. IT'S water-power that
makes every wheel move. Without
this great solvent, there is no life. L
admire immensely this line of Walt
Whitman:
1.-The slumbering and liquid trees"
The tree and its fruit are like u sponge
which the rains have filled. Through
them and through all living bodies
there goes on the commerce of vital
growth, tiny vessels, fleets and success
sion of fleets, laden with material
bound for distant shores, to build up,
and repair, and restore the waste of
the physical frame.
Then the rain means relaxation; the
tension in nature and in all her crea-
lures is lessened. The trees drop their
leaves, or let go their ripened fruit.
The tree itself will fall in still, damp
day, when but yesterday it withstood
gale of wind. A moist south wind pene-
trates even the mind and makes it
grasp less tenacious. 1t ought to take
less to kill man on rainy day than
on u clear. The direct support of the
sun is withdrawn; life is under cloud;
a masculine mood gives place to some
thing like feminine. In this sense,
rain is the grief, the weeping of nature,
the relief of a burdened or agonized
heart. But tears from natures eyelids
are always remedial and prepare the
way for brighter, purer skies. John
Burroughs, IN Scribner for July.

BERLIN, August 1.-The results
of about one hundred elections are

Conservatives, IL; Progressists,

Particularist parties and one of the

been defeated in four constituencies
where they were formerly success
full, but are concerned in many of
the second ballotings, including
those IN Dresden and Solingen.
Special dispatches from Berlin to
the London press agree that's a great
feature of the elections is the inter.
est displayed by the people, from
so to 80 per cent. of the full vote
having being been polled in Berlin
and the larger towns against the
usual average of 46 per cent. An
other feature is shown in the fact
that the Socialists, who lost sew
eral seats, polled more than ever,
and were only defeated by the ex-
traordinary Efforts OF their oppo-
nents.
