Money NV Mail.

A correspondent of the Scientific
american offers the following sugges-
ton with regard to an inconvenience
widely felt. The plan proposed would
doubtless prove as great convenience
to the receivers as to the senders of
small sums by mail. The writer says:
Nov, since postal currency has gone
out of use and dollar bills are getting
scarce, we, in the country, need some
mode of sending small sums of money
by mail. The money-crder system is
excellent, but the charge for sums less
than ST. is too high a percentage on the
value of the thing wanted. I would
suggest that Postmasters be authorized
to receive change in sums less than 81,
and issue certificates for the same,
which shall be receivable at any post
Office for stamps, or when presented in
quantities of SIS and over to be cashed.
The certificates to be issued to Post
masters in book form, and so printed
that the piece torn off will represent the
sum, the whole page representing ST..
The certificates to be at the sender's
risk. Postmasters to make return when
book is used up. Such a system
would facilitate trade between distant
points and increase the revenues of the
Postoffice Department"

poor fellows who have lost both eyes,
both arms, or both legs, or are other
wise seriously disabled-are now paid
1864 per annum. There are fifty classes
of pensioners nvalids besides widows
and orphans, who receive from $12 and
upward per annum. AL these pension
ers will be entitled to arrears of pen
sions from the date of their discharge
to the date when they first commenced
drawing pensions, but the rate will be
fixed at the rate prevailing at the date
of being placed on rolls.

Golden SauSae

The proprietor Of popular restaurant
in Berlin has instituted what he calls
the Dinner of the Golden Sausage, the
great attraction of which is the inser-
ton in every thirteenth sausage de-
signed for his guests of a small gold
coin, which becomes the property of the
individual to whose lot it chances to fall.
It is quite study to observe the guests
seated round the numerous tables, each
accommodating thirty persons, all of
whom are moving their jaws most
cautiously. Of those favored by fort
une, some are unable to conceal their
satisfaction while others try to convey
the coin unperceived from their mouths
to their pockets. AS matter of course
every one is obliged to masticate his
food slowly, instead of boiling it in the
national fashion, otherwise the tiny
golden coin might slip down his gullet
unaWares.

COnnecticut's Tramp Law.

The lower house of the Connecticut
Legislature has passed stringent
Tramp law, in imitation of the similar
laws recently adopted by the other New
England States. Tt is provided that
every person begging, or strolling
through the country living on aims,
shall be regarded as tramp and be
sent to the State prison for two years !;
that entering dwellings or kindling fires
by the roadside or on private premises,
the carrying of dangerous weapons,
malicious injury to property, ETC., shall
be offenses punishable by more severe
penalties, even to FIVE years imprison-
ment. Sheriffs and other officers shall
receive So for each arrest and conyic-
ton, and towns may appoint special
officers to hunt tramps This bill was
adopted by the Judiciary Committee in
preference to one establishing the
whipping post as penalty for tramps.

A Fearless Woman.

The Ogdensburg Journal details the
experience of tramp in that city: GA
tramp called at the residence of Henry
Carlton, on Hamilton street, in this
city, Friday afternoon, and asked for
something to eat. Mrs Carlton, who
lad just been making batch of fried
cakes, set a plateful before him, of
which the tramp ate heartily. When he
had satisfied his wants, he said: There
is something peculiar about those
cakes. They lave peculiar flavor. Did
you put something in them to poison
me? at the same time assuming dom
ineering swagger and Insulting tone.
Mrs. Carlton, seeing she had an ugly
customer to deal with, stepped to her
bureau, and, taking her husbands re-
volver, drew a line on the tramp and
told him to go out of her house. The
tramp put his hand into his pocket and
said: Well see; that's a game that
two can play at Mrs. G. stepped for;
ward quickly, and, covering him to a
dead certainty with her revolver, said !:
You remove your hand from your
pocket and you are dead man instant
II. Now move out One look suficed
to satisfy the tramp that raised hand
would cause his departure to a warmer
if not more congenial climate, and he
commenced backing for the door,
closely followed by the plucky woman,
who carried steady hand and a watch
full eye" M

Cold Rain.

At Loiret, France, rain fell continu-
ously on the Odd, 23d and Oath of Janu-
uary last, and yet the thermometer re-
manned at several degrees below the
freezing point. When the rain was
scanty, each drop at once solidifed,
even on warm objects. 1t took the
form of small, fattened and irregular
pastilles. When the rain was plentiful
on the other hand, part of it was at
once changed to ice, but part flowed
down on solid bodies, forming a new
layer of ice and producing stalactltes
The ice-coyered branches of trees broke
under the weight, and the ground was
soon strewed with branches; whole
trees lay PROSTATE and uprooted, and
others were split in two from top to
base. The majority were entirely
cleared of their branches, and in some
parts the forests looked like one of

Lac0nics.

The King of Zululand is said to have
recently addressed note to British
officer in South Africa, as follows
"Excelency-First came the missions-
ry; next the Consul; now the army.
Cetywayo.' This brief letter recalls
some short speeches and curt CORE
spondence, which will doubtless be de-
ightful reading in these times of long
harangues. A Western Judge once
upon time addressed the Grand Jury
in these words: Gentlemen, the wealth
er is extremely hot; I am very old you
know your duty perform it," Another
American Judge once interviewed in an
odd way to prevent waste of words.
He was sitting in chambers, and, seeing
from the pile of papers in the lawyers
hands that a certain case was likely to
be long one, he asked: What is the
amount in question:" "Two dollars,
your Honor said the plaintiffs coun-
sci. "I'll pay it," said the Judge,
handing over the money; "call the
next case" An English Judge was
more patient. He listened for couple
of days to the arguments of counsel as
to the construction of an act, and final
~ observed, when they were done ::
" Brothers, that act was repealed year
ago." One morning woman was shown
into DR.. Abernethy's room. Before he
could speak she barred her arm, saying,
Burn" "A poultice," said the doctor.
Next day she called again, showed her
arm, and said, Better" Continue the
poultice," the response. A few days
afterward she came again; then she
said: "Well; your fee" Nothing"
said the great physician; "you are the
most sensible woman I ever saw" Lord
Berkeley, wishing to apprise the Duke
of Dorset of his changed condition,
wrote: Dear Dorset: I have just been
married, and am the happiest dog alive
Berkeley" The answer came: "Dear
Berkeley: Every dog has his day. Dor
set" The editor of Chicago news
paper, wanting the details of a terrible
inundation in Connecticut, telegraphed
to correspondent at Hartford: Send
full particulars of the food" The reply
came quickly, "You will find them in
Genesis"

NOTHING can exceed the popularity Of
the German Emperor. He can hardly
enter any theat er without the audience
rising to their feet to hurrah and chant
the national hymn; and such is the
ceaseless stream of gifts kept pouring
into the palace by his affectionate SUBJ
jects that the aged monarch has at last
been compelled to remind the public of
half-forgotten order in council, forbid
ding the presentation of books, music,
objects of art and industry, etc., with
out leave being previously asked for
and obtained.

CAREFUL investigation into all the
circumstances of the famous Dexter
(Me.) bank mystery leaves no doubt
that the theory of Cashier Barron's sui
eide was a gross outrage upon brave
mans memory-the outgrowth, appar-
emily, of bank officials suspicion, cul-
tivated by one of those detectives whose
disreputable exploits are attracting SO
much attention just now in New En-
gland. Everything goes to prove that
Barron was an honest man, who sacri-
feed his life for the people whose prop
erty he considered really left in his
hands for safe-keeping.

A MASSACHUSETTS, farmer who inva-
riably carries his tobacco in his waist
coat pocket went to Springfield to sell
a load of apples. When he found a
purchaser he took the money and, roll
ing it up into little wad, stuffed it
into his pocket. Not long afterward he
emptied his mouth, and, thrusting his
hand into his pocket for a fresh supply
of tobacco, bit off fair-sized section,
and ground at it while with unwonted
zeal and relish. When he discovered
that he was chewing greenbacks, and
that what remained of the wad was
worth barely SO cents on the dollar, he

THE Chicago Medical Journal and
Examiner, in imitation of a British
publication, has established confess
sional, in which, it is expected, practi-
TONERS will record their plumbers for
the reproof and guidance of the profess
sion. The experiment is an interesting
one. It's success will largely depend,
of course, on the strict concealment of
the names of contributors. If physi-
clans contribute with any freedom to
the new department they will embarrass
the editors with the richness of their
experience in blunders.

AMERICAN COMMERCE.

Growth of Our Export Trade Some Surpris-

The report of the Bureau of Statistics
for the last year, says q Washington
correspondent, contains some very sur
prising figures to show the decline of
American commerce and the gradual
but steady manner in which foreign
ships have monopolized our carrying
trade. The following statement shows
the percentage of imports to and ex-
ports from the United States carried in
vessels of domestic build, from the year
1921 to the present date:
