COLONEL J. /. PEYTONs PLAN FOR MAKING II 4
REPRESENTATIVE EXHIBITION.

COLONEL J. T. FEYTON'S PLAN FOR MAKING IT
REPRESENTATIVE EXHIBITION.
"My idea about the Exhibition" said Colonel j.
T. Peyton, who did great deal OF valuable work
at the Centennial, and is now aiding to start the
New-York project, "is that it should not be held
earlier than 1850. Plenty of time should be taken.
More than wear will be needed for preliminary
agitation and organization. and for getting the leg
islation from Congress. Then we shall want State
action and several of the State Legislatures DO not
meet again until 1851. What should be done now
Il TO get two or three each State actively IN
tcIested IN the enterprise. Iucy should be idcntl-
fed with the chief Industries OF their states. Ihus
from Ncw-JeTscy would select the largest leather
manufacturer. from Pennsylvania the head OF the
biggest iron firm from Michigan the principal luin-
herman from Minnesota tho leading miller, from
California the best representative Of the INNING
interest, from Louisiana the largest sugar-pantcr
and so ou through the list of states An organIza-
tiOn of such men would furnish money and intel
Cence 10 the enterprise AT the outset Ii ought not
to he made too much q New-IOrk affair. The whole
country should take part in 1t from the beginning.
By the way, it would be a good stroke of econ
Omy 10 buy the main building of the Centennial
Exhibition and transport II to Ncw-YOrk. IL cost
81 .7jO, 600 and am told can be bought for $3.50,
600. There are over Q 100000 pounds of iron in
the structure. it could be taken apart and brought
here for 100000, and with fresh paint and decOfa-
ton would be a. good as new. If this plan were
adopted we should be million and a quarter ahead
of the Centennial at the start in the one tem OF the
cost of cur principal building"

"Dr. Hill, you are one of the great ad-

A Stern IliScipIinarian.

The father of Miss Maria Edgeworth,
the English novelist, had grim ideas of
moral training. "A contributor to the
Chicago Standard relates the following
among other instances of his harsh dis
ciplinc: Charlotte Edgeworth, half-sis-
ter of Maria (the daughter of the famed
beauty, Honora Sneyd, the second of Mr..
Edgeworth's four wives). was 4 beau
tiful girl, with luXuriant golden hair.
The rector of the parish and an officer
of the British army were dining ut
Edgeworth's town house. After din
ncr the ladies repaired to the library,
and the gentlemen followed. AS they
entered the door Of the library, the Off
Ger exclaimed: "How beautiful!" Mr..
Edgeworth said. haughtily and quickly:
What do you admire, sir?" He re-
piled: Your daughters magnificent
hair. Charlotte was standing in a be-
coming attitude before the bright CRATE,
with her arms resting upon the mantel-
piece. MIR. Edgeworth walked across
the room TO the book-shelves, opened a
drawer, held her head back, and cut her
hair close to her head. AS the golden
ringlets fe.l into the drawer, this extra
ordinary father said: Charlotte, what
do you say?" She answered: THANK
YOU, father" Turning to his guests, he
remarked: Il will not allow daugh-
ter of mine to be vain"

Words Of Wisdom.

Money is good servant and a bad
master.
1t is easy to find reasons why others
should be patient. 7
If rich, be not too joyful in having,
too solicitous in keeping, too anxious IN
increasing, nor too sorrowiul IN losing.
No matter how purely and grandly we
live to-day, there is do denying that we
may live more purely, more grandly to-
morrow.
Style is only the frame to hold our
thoughts. 1t is like the sash of win
dowSa heavy sash will obscure the
light.-Emno,,S.
Dandics may become useful in the
same manner rs those slaves of Sparta,
who were made di unk in order to inspire
children with horror of intoXication.
Friendship does not display, itself IN IN
words, but it acts unremitting ly; those
pretended friends who talk of nothing
but their hearts are like those towards
who are continually vaporing about Dra-
very and battles.

A Big IriShman.

The Emerald Isle has long been IA
nous for producing giants. The most
celebrated of these was the well-known
O'Brien, whom we first hear of as q
great raw youth crying in n public house
because unable to pay bill, having
been left penniless through a quarrel
with his exhibitor. A gentleman, taking
compassion on him, paid the debt, and
advised the young giant to set up on his
own account. Acting on this recon-
mcndation, O'Brien started 4 public
house in Bristol, long known by the
sign of Giants Castle A memorial
tablet in Trenchard street Roman Catho-
lie chapel records his stature as having
eight feet three inches. lie was very
anxious that his remains should not fall
into the hands of the anatomists, and
gave directions for securing his grave
against dissertation from body-snatchers.
1t has, however, been disputed whether
the giants bones still rest in his grave,
or form one of the curiosities of the
Huaterian Museum, though we believe
that they still lie undisturbed in deep
sunken grave. Poor O'Brien had to
take his constitutionals under cover of
darkness, to avoid being mobbed by the
curious, and like most big fellows proved
himself simple and inofensive man
though he inadvertently terrified a
watchman almost to death by lighting
his pipe at street lamp, the sudden ap.-
pearance of which strange apparition
threw the Waterman into fit. His
colossal proportions once saved the giant
from being robbed, the highwayman
who stopped his carriage riding away
in terror at the sight of O'Brien's huge
face thrust throug gin the window to sec
what was the matter. - Chambers Journal

What One Lemon VIII Do.

4 piece of lemon upon u corn will
relieve it in a day or so; it should be
renewed night and morning. The free
use Of lemonjuice and sugar will always
relieve cough. A lemon eaten before
breakfast every day for a week or two
will entirely prevent the feeling of lassi-
tude peculiar to she approach of spring.
Perhaps its most valuable property is its
absolute power of detecting any of the
injurious and even dangerous ingredi-
ents entering into the composition Of so
very many of the cosmetics and face
powders in the market. Every lady
should subject her toilet powder to this
test. Place teaspoonful of the sus-
pected powder in a glass and add the
Juice of lemon; if effervescence takes
place it is an infallible proof that the
powder is dangerous, and its use should
be avoided, as it will ultimately iDjure
the skin and destroy the beauty of the
complexion.
