Economy.

The Hungarian Deputy, Szedenyi,
has just died, leaving 100000 francs
to his nephew. He was the most eco
riomical man in the country, and the
shocking badness of hi. hat-within
the memory of MAN he had never worn
a new tile-was historical. "Great
heavens % said friend on meeting
him in the streets Of Pesth, "why dom t
you shoot that hat and get one about
a quarter way decent ?'' "Oh it max es
no difference what sort of hat wear
in Pesth," replied the millionaire;
"every one knows me, and my re.
ception doesn't depend on my head
gear"
A couple of months later the same
friend met him again, this time
on a Partisan boulevard, in the
height and heydey of the Exposi-
ton All was different except the old
hat.
The friend repeated the protest
against the unseemly head covering.
"Oh, bless you," replied Szedenyi,
'"Thers's not a soul out here knows me
from Adam, and it makes no earth
ly difference what sort of hat l now
wear"

KegR8rA that Ride,

In San Antonio, a queer-loOking old
town in Texas, the streets are narrow,
winding, unpaved, and lined with low,
thick-walled stone houses, having
earthen floors and flat roofs. On some
of the roofs bright flowers and feathery
grasses wave.
Along the narrow streets ride beggars
mounted on shaggy little donkeys, and
looking all around for somebody to give
them aims. These fellows are great
brawnv Mexicans, with fiery black
eyes which have guilty look in them
and are very quick to catch sight of
mon.y. If you toss coin to one of
these beggars, nothing less than a
iive-cent piece will do, he is sure to
catch it in his hat, and from there it
will be slipped into some pocket of his
ragged clothes. Then he will grin,
touch his replaced hat, and ride staidly
on.
His home, which probably is in the
outskirts of the town, is called a '.ja-
cal,' and is built with upright posts,
stray boards, bits of cloth, and all sorts
of materials, and thatched with straw.
1t contains but little furniture, yet
sheltered heaps o: sweet.potatoes, gar
lie, and red-peppers.

An Exciting Time ON the Road.

The Kennett Advance" says few
days since as Mrs. Evan T. Swayne,
and her son Edward, of Kennett Square,
were driving home from Avondale, they
came upon dead horse lying in the
road near Mrs. Brinton's at which Mr..
Swayne's horse frightened and ram
The carriage lurched to one side and
Edward was thrown out. Another
lurch threw Mrs. Swayne out and the
team dashed on to Toughkenamon
where it was captured. Miss Annabel
swayne, a daughter, had gone out on
horseback to meet the party, had warn
ed them of the danger, but as the horse
was quiet it was thought that it would
pass the obstruction without difficulty.
When the horse began running Miss
Swayne started for Toughkenamon as
fast as her horse could carry her and
warned those whom she met Of the ap-
preaching team that they might stop it.
When the runaway steed reached the
village, it was captured and harnessed
to another vehicle, when Miss Swayne
at once drove back and gathered up the
stranded members of the family No

Remedy.

The following smallpox remedy was
given to the public by a correspondent
Of the Stockton (Cal.) Herald, who says;
81 herewith append recipe, which
has been used, to my knowledge, in
hundreds Of cases. 1t will prevent or
cure smallpox, though the pittings are
filling. 1t will also cure scarlet fever;
here it is, have used it to cure small
pox. When learned physicians said
the patient must die, it cured; Sulphate
of zinc, one grain; foxglove, (digitalis),
one grain; half a tablespoonful of su-
gar; mix with two tablespoonfuls Of
water. When thoroughly mixed, add
6ur ounces of water. Take teaspoon
full every hour. Either disease will
disappear in twelve hours. For child
smaller doses according to their age.
If countries would compel physicians to
use this, there would be no need of pest
houses. If you value advice and expc-
rience, use this for that terrible disease.

The Salusbury's are certainly a lucky
family. Willard was Attorney Gener-
al of the State for five years, member
of the U. S. Senate for twelve years,
and now fills the Office of Chancellor.
Cove was Speaker of the State Senate
and by virtue of his office succeeded
Governor Cannon at his death. Then
he was elected Governor by the people
and served the full term of four years.
Eli has twice been elected to the U. s..
Senate where he now is. Thomas, one
of the nephews, has long been employ
ed in the Courthouse at Dover and is
now Clerk, at $1,000 per year, of the
Senate Committee on Privileges and
Elections, of which his uncle Eli is
chairman. John f., another of the

of the Legislature last winter. This is

Moody On tho Times.

Mr.. D. L. Moody's afternoon meet
ing in Mount Vernon N. L. Church
Baltimore on Thursday, was crowded
almost to suffocation. Mr.. Moody said
there was an impression amongst many
that the work now being done here
would cease with these meetings, but
he thought it should branch out into
new channels. 1t was a pity that hun.
dreds joined the church without giving
it new power, and the fault sometimes
lay in the false ideas held by the Lad
ers of the churches as well as y the
young converts. Saloon keepers whose
business had been interfsred with were
trusting that with the close of this re-
vival their old customers would come
back again. there was great deal OF
prejudice against revivals, but they
were as old as the Bible. There is
nothing good which has not been fought
by the world. Revivals are cOnstitu-
tionally scriptural, and yet it struck
him that a great many churches would
have been closed against the evange-
lists whom Christ sent out. One OBJ
lection to revivals is that converts do
not hold out but this is strange ar
gunent, for many who. enter into bust
ness fail. Others object to sudden con-
versions, and say there is always sure
to be reaction. Since he came here he
had tried to prevent undue excitement.
and the stirring up of animal life.
There had not been as much excitement
over these meetings as over business
and trade, nor as much as there would
be over the horse race of next week, to
which ladies will go and bet their gloves,
their handkerchieis and everything
they have. There is a need for this
working going on. 1t is a delusion to
suppose that the nation or the world is
growing better. The war which we
had has completely demoralized the ma
tion. Sons and daughters are brought
up to be nothing and do nothing and
there is a skeleton in almost every
house around yonder monument. If
a church can pay its debts and give
the minister his salary it thinks it is
getting along remarkably well, even if
no one is ever converted. There is no
nation which needs a revival of integ-
rity SO much as America. It's sbams,
its shoddies and its lies are abominable,
and so is the rascality that is covered
up under the guise of religion. The
question has been asked if saloons
should be closed by the law. He be-
lieved they would soon be closed il
Christians wonld stop using wine in
their own homes, and then go out and
talk to the drunkards. Wealthy ladies
should open coffee houses on Baltimore
street, aud sell the best tea and coffee
and country milk as cheap as the devil
sells his stuff, and they would find they
had made good investment. Ministers
ought to have courage to speak against
iniquity, instead Of talking against the
sins Of the patriarchs. Politicians are
striving to stir up sectional feeling, but
Christians ought to try to prevent this.
He believed that if the revival of 1857
had been followed up the country would
have been spared the horrors of civil
war. Judgment will follow if the work
now begun is not continued.

Reducing The Rate Of Interest.

The Legislature of the State of New
York has agreed to reduce the legal in
terest to six per cent. 1t has been sew
en- per cent. since the adoption of the
constitution of 1854. This is very
significant, as sign of the times, and
as evidence that in the leading com
mercial State of the Union the impress
sion has become general that there will
b. no immediate return in this country
to the high rates of interest which have
previously prevailed. This action of
the New York Legislature is in accord
with that of several of the Western
States, the Legislatures o. which have
recently lowered the official rates of in
terest.
