But We must look at another part OF

dition of the people and all the for.
eigners, especially afternoons, when
they drive in magnificent turnouts, and
make grant display, not only of fine
horses but elegant dresses, so that the
Chiasa with its long, fine prom
enade, and beside two carriage drives a
course for horseback riding and several
fine avenues for walking, is already
attractive. And we find there the fine
aquarium which, being fitted mp es-
pecially to illustrate the life in the
waters about here, is remarkably in
teresting. The specimens of cutie
fish are very large and we'll developed,
and as they roll up with their great
clumsy bodies and long reaching arms
to seize little crab which was let
down to them, they gave us an idea OF
their formation which they little
dreamed of, and which one seldom gets
as they cling to the rocks.
So curious creature can but excite
the curiosity of all here. There are
three of than, each measuring,
should think, five feet across from tip
to tip of the arms, when spread ont.
These arms, seven OF which are on
each cuttle-fish, are covered with feel
ers, and are spread out to catch at any
thing coming in their way, dealing
destruction wherever they grasp.
Another interesting study is specie.

which they can find in the water.
These in the bank here are supplied
with broken jugs, pots or any earthen
vessels into which they can work their
bodies, and lie in them almost entirely,

the rest of the body curled in as best

They are striped, and formed like a
mackerel, but only the scientific name

The study of coral life, too, is made
very perfect, while that of sea anemones
is also quite extensive, giving the
greatest variety ever saw. The build.

A Much Needed Example.

Last October an excursion train was
vrecked,pe Wollastap MAJ, nth
considerable loss Of life. The response
bility forithei disaster. xas dearly fixed
upon the conductor Of . freight train,
Charles H. Hartwell,' who Left the
switch out OF line with, the rails with
out sending out, Q signal Of danger.
The conductor was indicted for man
slaughter, and last week was tried, the
Jury bringing in Q verdict Of guilty.
Much sympathy has been excited on
behalf of this man. It is said that he
has suffered intense agony of mind on
account of his negligence, and that he
has a family who will be reduced to
want if he is imprisoned. Considera-
tons like these are pleaded as a reason
why the punishment provided by law
for his offense should not be indicted
upon him. Now it strikes us that this
sympathy is rath.r misplaced, and
would be better bestowed upon those
WHO were bereaved and impoverished by
this mans rash act. 1t is sad thing
doubtless, that any man should be sent
to prison for crime whose results he
deplores but society owes it to itself
not b. yield to the feeling that calls for
q remission Of the penalty. If no
murderer were to be executed for O
crime that he regretted, the hangman' =
occupation would soon be gone. If no
man is to be imprisoned if he wishes
that he bad done otherwise, we may AS
we'll pull down our prisons at once.
But there is special reason in this
case why the law should be carried out.
The criine for which this conductor has
been condemned is deplorably common.
Constant familiarity with danger tends
to make railroad employees careless,
and from being careless they often be-
come reckless. In this country every
body travels, and everybody's life de.
ponds therefore, more or less often,
upon the faithfulness of railroad en-.
ployees. 1t is q familiar fact that with
hardly an exception railroad accidents
are the result OF sheer carelessness--a
carelessness so gross as to be criminal.
Occasionally an accident will happen
that no human wisdom could possibly
have forseen or provided against, but
these cases are OF the rarest. The rule
is that the negligence or recklessuess
of some employee causes the loss OF
life. Carelessness Stays it's thousands
where malice Stays one and it is there
fore verse than no excuse for man to
plead, 81 didn't intend to do'it." His
crime is that he didn't intend not to do
it, and for that crime the safety of So
ciety demands that he be punished. A
few cases of rigorous enforcement OF
the law, such as the one in Massachu-
sets, will make accidents on our
crowded lines OF travel less frequent.
The trouble is not that this man is
treated too harshly, but that too many
equally guilty men have been allowed
to go scot-free. Employees need to be
taught by such effective methods that
carelessness is not misfortune but q
crime.-N. Y Examiner and Chronicle.

knowing look in his eyes got off a Grand
Trunk train and made inquiries about
an uptown hotel and finally decided
to take hack up. Nothing was said
about the fare, which was fifty cents,
but when he had been safely carried to
his destination he pushed his hat up q
little more, drew down his left eye, and
said 10 the hickman:

Ethiopia and Caucasia.

, A very extraordinary wedding lately
took place in Boston. A. Il. Grimke,
q South Carolina negro whom the eman
cipation set free, was united in the
bonds of wedloek to Miss Sarah E
Stanley, the daughter of On Episcopal
clergyman of Wisconsin, and of I'M.
mixed Caucasian blood. When Grimke
became o freedman some friends who
took q lively interest in him sent him
North to be educated. He was FIRST
grad uated by the Lincoln university
Pennsylvania, and afterwards by the
Harvard Law school, where he took
high rank for legal attainments. He
commenced the practice of law in Bos-
ton. and was successful. He became
well known and trusted, and is said ia
possess fine literary attainments. MRS.
Grimke is spoken Of as a cultured wo-
man, and tit to adorn the best society.
The marriage took place at the fashion.
able residence Of Mr.. sChas. P. Curtis,
and the officiating clergy aud the we'd.
ding guests were of the first Boston
circles. Marriages of negroes and
whites are, perhaps, not uncommon,
but such Q marriage, set in such sur
roundings Of fashion and culture, q
Boston paper intimates, has no parallel
in American social history, and the
same paper goes on. to say !: Mr.. and
Mrs. Grimke have thewarm friendship
Of . circle of friends moving in the
best ranks of Boston society" So far
as she is individually concerned, Mrs.
Grimke has at least substantiated her
own belief in the eq uality of the ETH
opean and European human types, and,
according to accounts, she has the sym
pathy, support and justification of the
best ranks Of Boston society. !, These
social features make the Grimke.S Stan.

Staten Island and numerous places
in the vicinity were recently greatly ex-
cited by the report that lucky farmer
on Lake Island had found an ancient
urn filled with silver coin. This urn was
declared to hold peck, and very soon
this one urn grew to be half dozen
in the mouths of eager gossipers. Scores
of people resolved to abandon regular
work, which brought but small pay, and
to commence digging for silver. and to
find, perchance, gold also. Unfortu-
nately, however, this glittering story OF
discovered treasure was investigated"
and when it was traced down to its ORR
gin it was found to be simply this A
farmer found one silver coin in lot

told some companions that his father

founded jealousies. They enjoy the
bliss of loving and being lovsd,S yet
they are not quite sure il is going to
last. Somebody else may come along
and capture the heart they so highly
prize. Therefore, engaged people are
apt to exchange their vows frequently,
both for the pleasure of listening to
what they know already and to gain new
assurances that they are first in each
