4 Greeting.

4 Greeting.
So many stars as shine in the sky,
SO many little winds murmurinS by,
So many blessings attend thee;
So many leaves as dance on the trees,
So many flowers as wave in the breeze,
Brightert tilan those love, and sweeter than these
The loving thoughts that send thee.
Were the golden sun to shine.
Every ray glad thought of mine,
Loving and true and tender.
Iwould crown with my beams thy dearest head,
From morning golden to evening red;
Deep in my heart lies the thought unsaid,
The love that no speech can render.
When the sweet flowers droop and die,
Think that my hopes IL whithesed lie;
Think how my heart is broken! s!
When, in April, when sun and rain,
Ni"iets blossom pn hill and plain,
Think thou could'st cali NE to lie again
BY the sweet word still unspoken!

There are, it is said, no pld
maids in Russia except the nuns.
Public sentiment is 50 decidedly
against female celibacy that
when a woman reaches the age
of 25 and still pines in single
blessedn ess, she finds it best to
go off on a journey in search of
a husband, and usually returns
after some length of time and
announces that she is a widow.
Russian etiquette, which posi-
lively forbids any allusion TO. the
husband in the presence pf his
widow, is very convenient fSr the
purposes of those ladies.

The Revised Statutes.

Ex-Secretary Boutwell,, who has been
engaged for eight or nine months in the
preparation of new edition OF the
first volume Of the Revised Statues
under an act of Congress, has now
completed his work and will place 1t In
the hands of the Secretary OF state al
once. The following information con
corning the work will be of interest TO
LAWYERS: Mr.. Boutwell, has prefxed 10
the new volume the constitution OF the
United States, fully annotated with rei-
erences to all the decisions OF the U. ..
Supreme Court, referring to each sec>
ton and to each clause where section
contains more than one. He has also
prepared an index to the constitution.
In the body of the work he has made
three changes
First-Where Congress has enacted
verbal alterations of sections of the ie~
vised statutes the addition or alteration
is Inserted verbally in its proper place.
but in type different from the body OF
the work. and be has added in each
case a marginal note referring to the
statute authorizing the change. There
are about one thousand such changes.
Second-He has a reference in the
margin against every section which has
been amended by Congress since the
revised statutes were adopted, in De.
cember, 1873. The reference points to
the statute BY which the amendment
has been made. giving the date. and
where no reference is made the reader
knows that the statute remains un>
changed.
Third-He has given marginal refer.
eDces to all the decisions of the Su-
preme and Circuit Courts of the United
States bearing on any section of the re>
vised statutes which has been interpre>
ted by any of these courts.
Finally, he has revised the index. 1t
should be understood that the act of
Congress did not authorize Mr.. Bout>
we'll to revise or codify the statutes
enacted since 1878, and he has not
therefore touched them, but has re-
ferred to them in the appropriate places
in the revised statutes. as above stated.

A dispatch from Osceola, Mo-, on
the 10Th ult., says mob of armed
and masked men took possession OF
that town on Friday night, arrested
everybody on the streets at tie muz-
zle of revolvers and shotguns, and
then went to the Court House and
seized all the tax books for this and
past years in the County Clerks and
Treasurer's Offices and carried them
away. The trouble grew out of O
railroad tax which had been levied
to pay certain judgments against the
county for past due interest on rail
road bonds. Several of the mot
were recognized by officers of the
.aw, and arrests will probably be
made. in which event more trouble
will doubtless occur.

The Colorado Man.

:
months ago, discovered near Pu-
eblo, Colorado, petrified man,
and this man is now on eXhibi-
ton in the city of New York.
The head of this creature COM
bincs some of the characteris-
tics of man and the gorilla. The
occiput or hindpart is enormous
ly developed; the brow is broad
and low, and slopes suddenly,
while the hair extends from the
eyebrows all over the head. The
general proportions are Of hu-
man shape. The check bones
are more prominent than in the
Indian, but the jaws do not pro-
ject. The figure is very slender
and seven feet six inches in
height. The hips are narrower
than the shoulders and the legs
and arms long. The toes are
prehensile, made to grasp. The
fingers are long and elegant and
perfect in number. The poise of
the figure is easy and natural,
and extremely graceful. The
left foot being gracefully drawn
up, exposes a short tail. This
fossil man of Colorado or the
Colorado statue, as we choose to
call it, has an important bearing
upon many subjects. If this OBJ
ject represents the missing link,
man as he was ceasing to be a
gorilla and becoming a man,
then we have gained consldera-
BILE information as to statues of
first parents. They were ex-
ceedingly well put up and beau
tifully proportioned. The Greek
sculptors, even among the best
developed members of the hu-
man race, were compelled to
copy scores Of living models and
combine the best features of each
before they could produce a stat
ue representative of the ideal
human body. This circumstance
has a dlscouraging tendency, for
it proves that the human race
has retrograded in it's physical
proportions, for there is not one
man IN a million, if there is even
one, who would fill up the per-
fections Of the Colorado man.
The missing link was even ill ad-
vance of the Greeks. The ex-
istence of even one perfect body
among the people who linked us
to the gorilla is really a matter
Of surprise.
Col. John w. Forney prints
in the Philadelphia Press a state
ment about the charge that
President Grant was intoxicated
when he called on Senator Sum-
ner in relation to the Santo Do
mingo treaty. He says: "Grant
had evidently been dining when
he called upon Senator Sumner.
All Mr.. Summers guests had re-
tired but myself. l remained
behind at the request of General
Grant. He was smoking cigar
when he entered the Senator's
reception room, and the latter
surprised me by offering to the
President fresh clgar-an un-
usual Occurrence for Mr.. Sum-
ner, who never smoked himself
and never invited others TO do
so under his own roof. 6ow,
ar. Sumner is virtually dragged
from the grave in order to
reproach General Grant, and
l am made witness to the as
sault. For answer, l have only
to say that while the President
had evidently just come from a
hearty dinner, he spoke with
general clearness, precision and
accuracy; SO clear, indeed, that
on that very night l wrote an red
itorial article for my newspaper,
the Washington Daily Chronicle,
in favor of the San Domingo
project, firmly believing that the
President had convinced the
Senator.

Emcacy Of Prayer.

The Philadelphia Conference of Bap>
tist Ministers held stated meeting on
the morning of the 18th ult., at which
the following rather curious resolutions
were adopted:
Whereas the country has. for more
than four years, been suffering under
commercial and industrial depression.
which has brought great distress on all
classes; and whereas this prolonged ca
lamity is due largely to moral causes
(some of which go back in our history
to selfshness. greed of gain. public and
private dishonesty, waste, recklessness-
and in general to q disregard of the
rights of man and the laws of God;
therefore,
Resolved, That it is most fitting that
we humble ourselves under the hand of
God in view of our sins and pray for
his interposition in our behalf.
Resolved, That we recommend to all
our brethren to employ Thur-day of
the Week of Prayer (Jan. I0th) as
season of special humiliation. suppl
cation and prayer before Almighty God
for the forgiveness of our sins. for a
revival of personal and national right
eousness, for the bestowment of the
truest wisdom upon our rulers. and for
the favor of God which alone can bring
real prosperity.
Resolved, That we should regard it
as a most fitting act ii the President OF
the United States should recommend q
day of public prayer in behalf of the
country.
Resolved. That we respectfully in-
vite our brethren of all denominations
to mite with us in securing the observ>
auce of such season of prayer.
Resolved, That a c0py of these reso-
lutions be sent to he Ministers Con-
ferences of our Presbyterian and our
Methodist brethren in this city. and
that copv, signed by the president and
the secretary of the conference, be
transmitted to the President Of the
United States.
The above resolutions were adopted
at the Methodist Episcopal Preachers
meeting.

By the proper means in America,

result to both of them. He con-
