What Is Poetry.
tNorrislowu Herali.l

"What is poetry" isa conundrum we
find in an esteemed contemporary.
When a young lady receives Il letter
from her lover, and finds at the omega
of it those soul-inspiring lines
"The rose is red, the violet's blue
No knife can cut our love in two"
she is willing to make oath that sweeter
poetry never was written. The world is
full of poetry, The little girl of six
summers, with heavenly blue eyes, a
laughing dimple, fluffy golden hair,
pink cheeks and pink sash, is sweet
poem-and ten years hence some young
man will want to metre and form a
couplet. The yellow cur going knit
ting" down the street with a tinware
attachment, is poem--of the doggerel
order. The sad-eyed fisherman, who
stanza long the rivers edge four hours
without getting bite, is verse-averse
to standing there any longer: so epics up
his lines, which have not fallen in pleas.
ant places, and concludes to ron-deauwn
home. And the tuft of tender grass,
that appears after the SHOWS of winter
have departed, is spring poem-but
not the kind the editor "sits upon. u
The man il the white pants at picnic
does that. And now if you don't know
what poetry is, we give it up.

How Bar.RoOm Liquors are Made.

There may be seen daily on Chestnut
street, says the Philadelphia Bulletin, a
man dressed in faultless apparel, with
great diamond on his breast, vainly en-.
deavoring to out.glitter the magnificent
solitaire on his finger. In German
university he learned chemistry, and not
even Liebig knew it better, His bust.
ness is the mixing and adulterating OF
LIQUORS. Give him dozen casks OF
deodorized alcohol and the next day
each of them will represent the name of
a genuine wine or popular spirit. He
enters a wholesale drug store bearing a
large basket upon his arm. Five pounds
of Iceland moss are weighed out to him.
To raw liquors this imparts smooth
ness and oleaginousness that gives to
imitation brandy the glibeness of that
which is matured. An astringent cate
chu that would almost close the mouth
of glass inkstand, is next in order. A
couple of ounces of strychnine, next
called for, are quickly conveyed to his
vest pocket, and q pound of white vitroil
is as silently placed in the bottom OF the
basket. The oil of cognac, the sulphuiic
acid, and other articles that give fire
and body to liquid poisons are always
kept in store. The mixer buys these
from various quarters. They are staples
of the art.

The Bible of Modern Science.

From the London Freeman,
The preparation of the new Bible,
which is to be inspired by sweet Icason.
ablcncss, has not made much vance
yet We lay before the readers the i'm
proved version Of the first chapter Of
Genesis.
/. There never was a beginning.
.. And Cosmos was homogeneous and
undilicrenlatcd, and somehow or another
evolution began aud molecules appeared.
3. And evolved molccule protaplasm,
and rhythmic thrills arose, and then there
was light,
i. And spirit of envy was developed
and formed the plastic cell, whence arose
the primordial germ.
5. And the primordial germ became
protogene,and protogcnc somehow shaped
eoaoon, then was the dawn OF life.
6. And the herb yielding seed and the
fruit tree yielding fruit after its own
kind, whose seed is in itself, developed
according to its own fancy.
r. The cattle after his kind, the beast
of the earth after his kind, and every
creeping thing became evolved by hete-
rogcnous segregation and concomitant
dissipation of motion.
8. so that by survival the iittcst there
evolved the simiads from the Jelly fish,
and the simiads differentiated themselves
into the anthropomorphic primordial
types.
9. And in due time one lost his tail
and became man, and behold he was
the most cunning of all animals,
10. and in process of time, by natu-
raj selection and survival of the fittcst,
Matthew Arnold, Herbert Spencer and
Charles Darwin appeared, and behold it
was very good.

During the session of the late Episco..
nal Convention in Boston, the Bishop OF
Louisiana in crossing the Common, met
a boy whose face he fancied, and, call.

lust tnen, to which he said: mo"
'.Are you good boy?' The little fel'
low scratched his head and replied:
al am not very good boy. l ouss

inspired the Bishop with confidence,
and he then said, after giving his name
and address:

and get a bundle for me, and bring IT to
my hotel. There will! be charge OF " !;
here is the money to pay for it, and half
dollar which you will keep for doing

On his return to the hotel, the
Bishops friends laughed at him for his
creduiity, telling him that he would
never sec the boy OF the bundle or the
money again, but in half an hour the
Young chap returned, bringing the bum

THE L oNDoN TIMES, in an articl
treating of the recent marked revival of
trade in the United States and the drain
of gold from Europe that attended it
makes some very interesting assertions
about the future value of gold which
are not without bearing on the money
question in this country. 1t says:
The annual gold production of the
United States themselves, about six mil
lions sterling, should also be sufficient
on the average for very considerable de-
mands. But making all allowances, the
United States current requirements for
bullion must henceforth at all times af-
feet our money market greatly, even if
they 60 no further than the absorption
in America itself of its annual gold pro
duction. We must be prepared, then,
in the next year or two, especially if
Germany should adhere to its gold stand
ard, for much higher rates for money on
the average than those which prevailed
during the last period of good trade.
The extraordinary demands for gold on
German account were certainly very
heavy; but they came upon full mar
kets, while the annual supply from the
mines was greater by several millions a
year than it is now, and neither Ger
many nor the United States were then
gold using countries. There may be
some compensation for all this strain
upon gold in France being obliged to
part with its stock of that metal, under
the influence of what remains of its BIZ
metallic law; but we doubt if it would
be prudent to rely upon France permit
ting this, while the strain would be seri-
ously increased, of course, by any special
effort on the part of France to recover
the stock of gold it has lost. The chances
seem all to be, then, that gold in the
next few years will be in scarce supply
for all the current demands upon it, and
that money will consequently be dear
in countries which use gold for theil
standard. Trade may be very good, Of
course, with dear money, as it was in
1864 and 1865; but the conditions in it.
favor will not be quite the same as when
money is cheap.

Rather q Long Lived Family.

Some two years ago a physician in
Secretary Evarts' favorite Village OF
Windsor, VT, was called to visit a pa
tent living some miles out of the vii
lage. He drove out, and as he was
hitching his horse the door opened, and
Q Young woman with a child in her
arms came out. They greeted each
other, and sho said, ooh, you are tho
doctor, come to see grandmother. She's
pretty sick. You'll find her in the
house" He went in and found wo-
man about forty, who said, "Oh, you
are the doctor. You'll find grand
mother in that way" In the room to
which he was directed he found an aged,
white-haired lady lying on the bed,
with her face the other way. She was
quite deaf, and did not notice his ap-
proach until he sat down and began to
feel her pulse. She turned and said,
ooh, you are the doctor. I'm not sick.
II is mother you want to see. You will
find her in that ROOM" So into the
next room he passed, and at last he was
in the presence Of his patient, whose
daughter, granddaughter, great-grand-
daughter and great-great-grand-dsugh
ter he had encountered. he found her
80 reduced by disease and old age (she
was ninety-nine) that he saw no chance
of her living more than week. He
told the family so, but at their request
left medicines and directions. Some
three weeks after he was driving. by and
saw woman picking up chips. Hs
pulled up his horse, intending to ask
when his patient had died, when she
looked up and said, "Oh, you are the

FROM a study Of the action Of tea
Mr.. w. ]. Morton has arrived at these
conclusions: As with any other drug,
there is proper and an improper use
of it. In moderation it is mild and
D leasant stimulant, followed by no harm
full reac ton. Its continued and immod
crate use leads to very serious gronp
of symptoms, such as headache, vertigo,
ringing in the ears, tremulousness, nerv'
business exhaustion of mind and body
with dissemination to mental and physi
cal exertion, increased and irregular ac'
ton of the heart, and dyspepsia. Many Of
the symptoms of immoderate tea-drink'
ing are such as may occur without sus-
plcion of the real cause.

4 A CHICAGO man has perfected ma.
chine for making from water gas of
highly Illuminating power. By it he is
said to be able to disintegrate water, and
bring its component parts together again
and produce light, heat, or steam, as he
chooses. The light obtained is beauti-
full and very brilliant flame, and can be
perfectly controlled. Its heat is of the
most intense character. By the turn of
a valve he can transform the light into
steam. The process by which this is ac-
complished is secret. The discoverer
admits that he generates tremendous
explosive power--a power as great as that
claimed for the Keely motor, but he
utilities it at once in the manner men,
toned.

door of the white and gold boudoir from
whence came the sound of maniacal
laughter and low groans of pain. AL
most mad with terror | forced my way
between a group of frightened and use

against the door. 1t yielded, and if I
live for a hundred years shall never
forge the sight presented to my view
Beautiful ElenOr Herbert Law prone
upon the floor, her white silk evening
dress dyed crimson with blood and her
face rigid and pallid as that of corpse.
Her mad husband stood over her with
cruel-looking knife in his hand, chuck.
ling gleefully. At sight of me he burst
into terrible peal of laughter, and be-
fore hand could BIO put forth to stay
him, plunged the knife in his own
heart.
Ha--ha!" he cried "see how pobly
l have foiled you! You would have
stolen her from me-take her now--she
is yours"
He fell to the floor dead, with the
last works on his lips, and at the same
moment an officer, attracted to the spot
by Sadie's cries, rushed into the room
to ascertain the cause of the disturb
ance. I can never clearly, remember
what Immediately followed, l only
know that the words came to my ears:
"The lady is not seriously wounded"
Then / must have fallen i'll, for when

his wife was slowly recovering. Years

and looking up from the written pages
before me, my eyes fall upon the fair

ALEXANDER II. STEPHENS.
An Interesting Chnt with the vcDcrN.
bic Georgian.

Alexander Ii. Stephens still remains
the wonder of Congress from the persist
ent manner in which he clings to life,
and the fact that his mind seems to re.
tain its old time vigor, even while the
body isapparently dead. His isl remark
able example of will power, as he lives
more because he wills it, than because he
has any natural right to.
Your correspondent called upon him
at his rooms at the National hotel, where
he has stopped when in the city for many
years. The venerable old statesman
was found seated in his wheel chair,
which he occupies on the floor of the
House, wheeling himself around from
one part of the room to another His
greeting was cordial, and conversation
opened.
NJ rshall Jewell, when in the city, had
said that in his state (Connccticut) they
were talking of presidential ticket with
Grant first place, and A. II. Stephens for
second. Frye, of Maine, said he had
heard of such combination, and the OBJ
iect of my call upon the old Georgian
was to ascertain his views upon such 4
ticket.
He declined to discuss politics, but
said: d" shall never occupy any posi-.
ton other than the one | do now, and
don't expect TO hold that much longer
Upon my expressing surprise at that
he said: 81 don't expect to live through
another presidential election. j don't
expect to live twelve months longer"

RUTH.

All, her face Is very fair,
Snowy white and rosy red;
And the glorious golden hair
Hovers mistlike round her head.
And her voice ia soft and low,
Clear as music, and a8 sweet;
Hearing 1t, you hardly know
Where the sound and silence meet.
All the magic, who can tell,
OF her laughter and her sighs;
Or what heavenly meanings dwell
In her kind, confiding eyes.
Pretty lips as rubies bright,
Scarcely hide the tiny pearls,
Little wandering stars of light
Love to nestle in her clrls. .
All her ways are winning ways.
Full Of tenderness and grace;
And witching sweetness plays
Fondly DER her gentle face.
True and pure her soul Within
Breathing Gods serener air,
Evil, and the shame Of sin
Cannot dwell moment there.
