A Silver Anniversary.

Yesterday afternoon, the 10th inst,
the Mason & Hamlin Organ Company
celebrated by dinner at Youngs Hotel
the twenty-ffth anniversary of the COM
mencement of their business, which by
its own merits has grown to large pro-
portions. At the start the capacity of
their works was two or three melodeons
per week, the best of which sold for
about one hundred dollars each; their
present capacity is over two hundred
cabinet organs per week, and they are
most of the time behind orders, while
their best productions new command
five hundred dollars each, and in excep-
tional cases several times this amount.
In numbering their instruments they
have reached 100000, having actually
made and sold nearly that number.
Organs of their make have obtained an
extraordinary reputation all over the
world, and are sold in every civilized
country where the tariff is not so high as
to be prohibitory Musicians recognize
in them distinguished excellence in
quality oftone, the result, in large meas
ure, perhaps, of peculiar skill in 0otcl'lS
reeds, an art which originated with this
company. But in every respect it has
always been a principle with them to
make in each detail the best instrument
possible and to sell them as low as pos
sible. Theskillful carrying out of this
policy has resulted in this great success

Lewis Gaylord Clark, the editor of the
Kn5ckerJ0cber MGqGzi,sc, used to tell the
following story with great delight:
Some two miles up the river from St.
Johnsbury, Vt, is Il primitive sort of II
little village called "The Centre Here,
not long since, the rustic youth of the
vicinity congregated for dance, land
dance they did," said our informant,
with an JUNCTION unknown to your
city bellies and beaux.n One interesting
man, having imhibed too freely, became
l" fttigued in the course of the evening,
and wisely concluded to retire for a
shortest
A door ajar near the dancing-hall re-
veacd invitingly a glimNse of Il comfort
able bed, ofwhich he took possession with
the prospect of an undisturbed "snooze."
1t happened, howbeit, that this was
the g ladies' withdrawing room" and no
sooner had lie closed his eyes than Il pair
of blooming damsels came in and began
adjusting their disordered ringlets, the
dim light of the tallow candle not dis
closing the tenant of the bed. The girls
had tongues Oike the rest Of their

What a nice dance we're having!
Have you heard anybody say anything

Law, yes, Sally. Jim Brown says
he never saw lou look so handsome as
You do tonight Have you heard any,

" About you! Why, sartin, heard
Joe Flint tell Sam Jones that you was
the prettiest-dressed girl in the room.'n
Whereupon the dear things chuckled
and fixed up" little more, and made
OFF toward the ballroom. They had
hardly reached the door when our half
conscious friend. raised himself on his
elbow, and quite intelligibly, though
slowly, inquired:
Have you heard aryborry say any

Two Seals fry to Save Their Keeper

Two SediS Icy 10 save IHelF heeper.
A singular and dep lorable event has
just taken place, which shows once more
what one may expect from the intelli-
gence of certain animals.
EVERYBODY knows the pond in the Gar
den of Acclimation, in Paris, where the
seals frolic, and the little rock, from the
top ofwhich the keeper Alexander comes
at meal-time to give the animals their
food.
The seals which the sight of Alexan-
der made happy, climb sometimes the
rock, and were in the habit of coming
to get their food out of the hands of the
keeper himself. While Alexander was
feeding these amphibians, wedding
party arrived. Alexander wished to be
gallant toward the bride, and made the
two seals climb the rock. There he
took live fish and held it in such a
way that the seals, in order to catch it
were obliged to stand up and make a
jump for it. This sight made all the
visitors burst into a hearty laugh, and
the whole wedding party were delighted.
All of sudden, one of the animals,
tired, no doubt, stood up and then fell
heavily on the keeper. The latter trip
ped, lost his balance and fell so unluck-
lily that he split his skull on the edge of
the pond and disappeared Immediately
under water. Then nothing was more
curious than to 81 e the bewilderment and
maneuvers of the seals. These animals
began to dive several times, and then
together they put the body Of Alexander
on their backs, brought him to the sur
face an pushed him on the shore, max
ing plaintive cries, as if calling for help.
Unfort unately help was not needed. The
poor keeper of seals was killed on the
spot Paris FigprO.

Organs that are performing active
work in any of the processes of life
are always of a soft nature, and so
much the more soft according as the
work which they accomplish is the
more energetic Thus the flesh which
moves the limbs of an animal is softer
than the gristle, or bone; and the brain,
in its turn, softer than the flesh.

A WISE LEGISLATOR.

He is successful because he has the
manly courage to rise above all personal
motives or interests and cast his vote and
influence on the side of measures which
will contribute to the we'll being of his
follow-men. The good of the many,
even though it proves injurious to the
interests of the few, is the maxim Of the
wise legislator. But certain men will
never admit the wisdom of this doctrine,
any more than some selfish private prac.
TONERS will admit the superlative value
of DR.. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery
and Pleasant Purgative Pellets, because
these remedies have injured their prac.
tice. OF course, no man in his right
senses will pay physician $500 for q
consultation, bottle of bitters, few
powders, and prescription, when one
bottle of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and bottle of his Pleasant
Purgative Pellets, both costing but ST.
%, will accomplish the same result, viz
cleanse the liver and blood, regulate and
tone the stomach, and impart healthful
action to the bowels and kidneys.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

1t will be apparent to any one, who will eX-
anime a Solid Gold Watch, that aside from the
necessary thickness for engraving and polishing.
a large proportion of the precious metal used,
is needed only to stiiTen and hold the engraved
portions in place, and supply the necessary
solidity and strength. The surplus gold is act
TALLY needless so far as utility and beauty are
concerned. In James Boss Patent Gold Watch
Cases, this waste of precious metal is overcome,
and the same solidity and strength produced at
from one-thrd to one half of the usual cost of
solid cases. This process is of the most simple
nature as follows: plate of nickel composition
metal, specially adapted to the purpose, has
two plates of solid gold soldcred one on each
side. The three are then passed between polish
ed steel rollers and the result is strip of heavy
plated composition, from which the cases.
backs, centres, bezels. &C., are cut and shaped
by suitable dies and formers. The gold in these
cases is sufficiently thick to admit of all kinds
of chasing. engraving and enamelling; the en-
graved cases have been carried until worn per-
fectly smooth by time and use without remoy-
ing the gold
This is the only case made with two plates of
solid gold, and warranted by special certificate.

the sum demanded. Jones ceased active
participation in the matter, though he
has been closely watched by the detec-
tives. The Tribune to-day says: Gail
hopes that refusal to negotiate for the
return of the body on the terms named,
or other than the payment of reward
of S25, 900, which offer Jones transmitted
by mail to Romano, would lead the
thieves in desperation to reveal them
selves, were finally abandoned by Hilton
about three weeks ago, and he has since
reopened negotiations, this time, it is
believed, with the purpose of buying the
body outright, and without attempt to
secure the thieves. 1t is clear that all
efforts heretofore have been baffied.
There is no question that Romaine is the
selected agent of the robbers. and has
the body in charge. He has carefully
concealed his indemnity, and his hand
writing is SO disguised as to battle ally
attempt to detect him by that means. 1t
appears, also, that Mrs. Stewart had
been deceived into supposing the re-
mains recovered, and every effort made
to create this impression everywhere,
with view of bringing out communion
tons from the robbers.
The Times prints remarkable story
by an Italian sculptor, named Sala, who
in his communications with the authori-
ties is proven to possess knowledge of
the robbery and identity of the robbers.
He says he will only move in the matter
again when payment of the reward and
expenses is assured.
