Hawkeye Reflections on Tall Men.

Just after 1 left Honeoye Falls, a tall
man sat down in the seat. in front of
me. I had noticed him standing
wearily about on the platform, and l
pitied him. Ny heart was full of SYM
pathy for him. / am always sorry for
tall man. Sometimes, when l get be-
fore an audience, and have to stand on
my tiptoes to look over the footlights,
I wish I was trife taller than / am.
But this longing is only momentary. 1t
passes away as soon as see an unusu-
ally tall mar. You see, very tall
man is always pursued, haunted by one
unvarying joke. Every short or ordi-
nary-sized nan that approaches him
throws back his head, affects to gaze up
into the heavens with very painful ef-
fort, and asks, "Isn't it pretty cold up
where you arew Just watch the next
short man you see meet a tall one and
see if this conundrum doesn't follow the
first greeting. Just watch and see if
you do not ask it yourself. And this
must be dreadfuIly wearing on the
tall man. Ihave observed that as rule
big men, tall men, are good-natured. 1t
is we little fellows who have waspish
tempers. So the tall man never resents
this venerable joke by sitting down on
the man who gets it of. He smiles
drearily, and with weary effort to ap-
pear interested, and tries to look as
though he had never heard it before. 1t
must be perfect torture for the tall
man to hear this question fifty times a
day for thirty or forty years. Some
times, when hear a dozen men ask a
tall man of my acquaintance that ques-
ton, in direct succession, and see him
endure it so patiently, wish / was the
Colossus of Rhodes and little man
four feet eleven and half would come
up to me seme day when + felt right
good, and stare up at me with grin
longer than his body, and ask me eff il
wasn't pretty cold up there" and
would hold him up by the neck, and
would swing my brazen leg until it go
the motion and impetus of walkin.
beam, and then / would kick the littl'
fellow SO high that he could read tn,
names of the streets on the street lamp
in Uranus, and 1 would sarcasticall,
shout after him, No, it's red hot!'

A NEW flower of gigantic proportions
has been found in the forests of Sumatra.
Its average diameter is thirty-three
inches, and the discoverer has given it
the specific name of Titanum." Odo-
ardo Beccari, a traveller and naturalist
we'll known in Europe, is the fortunate
finder oft. HEIDI spatched six boxes of
the bulb roots to Italy, but peculiar
misfortune has befallen them. They
were addressed to nobleman of Flor
ence, but on arrival at Genoa were
refused admission by the custom officers.
Out of dread for the Phyllorera all liv-
ing plants.have been refused admission
to the kingdom, lest the terrible foe of
the vineyards should smuggle himself
into Italy, and the officers followed the
letter OF the law in the case of the harm
less Titan. What has become of the intru-
ding cargo the Fanfulla does not know.

An Asiatic Trick.

Iseat of War Correspondence London News.l
One of the tricks practiced hereabouts
is to bury all the grain of a vii
lage where there is danger apprehended
from the approach of an enemy, and
then to construct tomb on the surface,
so as to give it the appearance of a. holy
place, and Mohammedans have such
reverence for these ziarats or shrines
that they would scarcely touch them
even if they knew that there were stores
concealed beneath. Money and jewels
are also concealed in times of danger,
and often the proprietors are killed, or
leave the spot and never return, so that
the treasure is lost forever. 1t is known
that immense wealth was thus concealed
in Delhi during the mutiny, and but a
small portion of it has yet been found,
but it would not pay to dig all over the
ground in search of such lost valuables.
The usual plan of storing grain here is
in large jars, buried underground in
the houses. In the bazaar in the fort
here, left vacant since we came to it,
are many of these jars. / tried the other
day to feel the bottom of one of them
with a stick, and it must have been
about Eve feet deep at least, suggesting
strong resemblance to the buried jars
found by DIR. Schliemann at Hissarlik.

IT is said that Franklin's appearance
at Versailles in a plain suit of drab
cloth was, like SO many other notable
circumstances, accidental, his court suit
not arriving in time, and the king send
ing to tell him to come as he was. Be
this as it may, there seems to be evil
dence to show that he subsequently ap-
peared in black velvet embroidered
coat, and small sword, and the por.
traits taken of him in France point to
his dressing handsomely.

Chased Nine Miles by a Locomotive.

lhtuIy NOuuty NUd.J
Jim Wyatt glories in the ownership
of horse that can beat the Central
Railroads best schedule time. Last
Friday night he mounted a negro on
the animal in question and sent him to
Lovejoy on. an errand. Returning, he
was overtaken by the eleven o'clock
through freight, which SO frightened the
horse that he became perfectly wild,
and throwing his rider, struck out down
the railroad track like a streak of
creased lightning, with the rapidly ad-
vancing train close upon his heels. The
engineer sounded the alarm whistle,
opened the steam-cocks, and did every
thing else to frighten the already terri
fed animal from the track, but failed.
He then pulled the throttle wide
open, thinking to oyertake and knock
him off, but Pegasus gathered fresh
strength as the object of his terror ap-
preached, and, letting himself out, soon
left the locomotive far in the rear. The
race continued until Sunny Side was
reached, when he left the track, having
run the entire distance (nearly nine
miles) in less than forty minutes, and
beating the train by several car-lengths.
This statement, increditable as it may
seem, is actually true, and will be
vouched for by reliable witnesses, the
engineer among the number.

Investigator GIOyer's View Of IL.
New York Star. Dem.l


Mr.. Glover will hardly trouble himself to
notice the angry impudence OF public servants
whose conduct 1t became his committees duty
to expose. 70 do SO would waste his time
without adding force to the exposure. The
report gives the facts; the public can judge.
Edward Mcpherson, late chief OF the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing, finding that his
efforts to ignore the Glover reports would not
satisfy the country, published last week six
columns of editorial In attempted self-vlndi-
cation He admits and corroborates the state
ments Of facts made by the report. but seeks
to break their force by unsupported de-
malls or things which the report does not
state, and by perverting what 1t does state;
and tries to divert attention from the facts by
tiltempered and impertinent efforts to provoke
Mr.. Glover into personal controversy with
him, which. we venture TO predict, he will find
that gentleman too wise to enter on. By TAX
ing this course Mcpherson eonfesses the
truth of the reports statements about his bu-
Ieau and himself In view OF the wrath he
displays his professions Of Indifference to the
report are laughable, especially as be com
plains bitterly Of Misrepresentation Nc
Pherson has only himself to thank II his
shameful editorial assaults on the Glover
committee provoked q closer scrutiny OF his
official acts than would otherwise have been
made.
