Acting Under Excitement.
DR.. Holland in April Scribner.

There is great fear, on the part Of
some amiable persons who write for the
public, lest, in certain excited move
ments of reform, there should be those
who will take steps for which they will
be sorry. They argue, from this, that
it is not best to have any excitement at
all, and especially that nothing should
be done under excitement 1t so hap
pens, however, that the path of progress
has always been marked by sudden steps
upward and onward. There arc steady
growth and steady going, it is true. but
the tendency to rut-making and routine
are so great in human nature that it is
often only by wide eXcitements that
whole community is lifted and forward
ed to new level Men often get into
the condition of pig-iron. They pile up
nicely in bars. They are in an excellent
state Of preservation. They certainly lie
still, and though there is vast capacity
in them for machinery, and cutlery, and
agricultural implements though they
contain measureless possibilities of spin
dies and spades, there is nothing under
heaven but fire that can develop their
capacity and realize their possibilities.
There are communities that would
never do anything but rot, except under
excitement A community often gets
into stolid, immobile condition, which
nothing but public excitement can
break up. This condition may relate to
single subject, or to many subjects.
1t may relate to temperance, or to a
church debt Now it is quite possible
that man under excitement will do the
thing that he has always known to be
right, and be sorry for it or recede from
it afterward; but the excitement was
the only power that would ever have
started him on the right path, or led him
to stop in the wrong one. 1t is all very
well to say that it would be a great deal
better for drunkard, coolly, after quiet
deliberation and a rational decision to
resolve to forsake his cups than to take
the same step under the stimulus of So
cial excitement and the persuasions of
companionship and fervid oratory. but
does he ever do it? Sometimes. posi-
bly,, but not often. Without excitement
and a great social movement, very little
of temperance reform has ever been eff
fected Men are like iron; to be nodded
they must be heated; and to say that
there should be no excitement connect
ed with great reform, or that reform
is never to be effected through excite
ment, is to ignore the basilar facts of
human nature and human history.

: No, my Lord, was the first person

Il mean, don't bring in the third per-

" There was no third person, my Lord,
only him and me.
My good fellow, he did not say he
had beeping the pig; he said, I have
been keeping it.
g. assure you, my Lord, there was no
mention of your Lordship at all. We
are on different stories. There was no
third person there, and if anything had
been said about your Lordship, | must

The Baron gave in Nothing pleascs

Uses Of the PhOnOgraph.

George b. Prescott, in Scribner for April.
For public uses, we shall have CALLER
les where phonograph sheets will be
preserved as photographs and books
now are. The utterances of great
speakers and singers will there be kept
for thousand years. In these CALLER
les spoken languages will be preserved
from century to century, with all the
peculiarities of pronunciation, dialect,
or brogue. AS we 90 now to see the
stereopticon, we shall go to public halls
to hear these treasures of speech and
song brought out and reproduced as
loud or louder, than when first spoken
Or sung by the truly great ones of earth.
Certainly, within dozen years, some of
the great singers will be induced to sing
into the ear of the phonograph, and the
electrotyped cylinders thence obtained
will be put into the hand organs of the
streets. and we shall hear the actual
voice of Christine Nilsson or Miss Cary
ground out at every corner.
In public exhibitions, also, we shall
have reproductions Of the sounds of ma
ture, and of noises familiar and unfa-
miliar Nothing will be easier than to
catch the sounds of the waves on the
beach, the roar of Niagara, the discords
of the streets, the noises of animals, the
putting and rush of the railroad train
the rolling of thunder, or even the tu-
mutt of a battle.
When popular airs are sung into the
phonograph, and the notes are then re-
produced in reverse order, very curious
and beautiful musical effects are often
times produced. having no apparent re-
sembance to those contained in their
originals. The instrument may thus
be used as sort of musical kaleido-
scope, by means of which an infinite
variety of new combinations may be
produced from the musical compositions
now in existence.
The speaking monographs will, doubt
less, be applied to bell punches, clocks,
complaint boxes in public conveyances
and to toys of all kinds. 1t will supre-
sede the short hand writer in taking of
testimony before referees. Phono-
graphic letters will be sent by mail, the
foil being wound on paper cylinders the
size of finger 1t will recite poems in
the voice of the author. and reproduce
the speeches of celebrated orators
Dramas will be produced in which all
the parts will be "well spoken with
good accent, and good discretion; the
original matrice being prepared on one
machine provided with "a rubber tube
having several mouthpieces; and Mad
anne Tussauds figures will hereafter
talk, as well as look, like their great
prototypes!

the distance was great, both paused for
some seconds. The face of COL Morton

His eye was quick and far-seeing as an

but earth and sky; and the savages used
to declare he could catch the scent of a
Mexican or an Indian at as great dis

Her Greatest Charms.

Mrs. Il. p. Bell, wife of one of the di-
rectors of the Bank of California, is
about to start on a European tour AS
her husband has an income OF 100000 a
week, it is not surprising that she should
be supplied with a wardrobe the like of
which woman has never possessed since
the dazzling days of SoIomon's friend
the Queen of Sheba In so far as the
apparel is concerned, it was all cut and
fashioned and made up under the eye Of
WORTH in Paris, and as he gazed at the
finished aud faultless fol-de-rols, he is
said to have wept for joy. Her jewels,
however, were her greatest charms, and
Of them her stock is probably larger and
lovelier than that of the Russian Car
ina The other night she appeared at Il
charity ball in New York, and created a
great sensation. From the crown of the
head to the sole of the foot there was
nothing is to say, almost nothing
but diamonds and rubies, and rubies
and diamonds, In the golden belt OF a
stomacher alone $50 diamonds flash, and
in chatelainc of exquisite workman
ship 1873 small ones may be seen.
Among other things of scarcely less
value, she has tiara made OF gold and
precious stones, in the center of which
is one huge black pearl that cost alone
$4,000. If she thinks much Of her jew
els, the dread of losing them must call
forth high old nightmare every night.

quence of its mildness, was very detrimental
to the schools in our rural districts. 1t is no.
ted fact that our schools in the rural districts
have a better attendance when the weather is
so severe and cold as to hinder labor on the
farm 1t is also quite apparent that our sum-
mer schools are not patronized as they should
be, because most of our farmers keep their
children who are large enough to work at
home for the benefit of their labor. Not few
farmers are at the same time crying out about
high taxes, and that the country schools are
failures Strange it is that so many people
prize the labor of their children more than
knowledge! Our schools can never be perfect
success until we can obtain regular attendance.
A pupil who attends school every alternate
day, and perhaps only one day in a week. is not
very apt to get interested In his lessons be-
sides, it Is detrimental to the whole school, as
the teacher has to take time from the other
pupils to help this irregular pupil to under
stand principles which he had explained to the
class some time previous.
