Ostraclsm.

During The fourteenth century, when
the Hebrew race was undergoing one of
those periodical prosecutions which it
has been subjected to during the long
reign of events, as recorded by history,
since the birth of Moses, there lived in
Ispahan an opulent Jewish merchant.
Persecution, which always seeks vul-
nerable point and never dares assail
strength, fixed upon the rich Jew as a
victim. The Cadi of Ispahan, from mo-
tives of jealousy and class prejudice,
made matters so unpleasant for the jew
that in despair he went to him and said;
"You will not allow me to live here ;
where shall l got"
500 to Bagdad, replied the Mutt.
But" responded the Hebrew, ''your
brother rules there"
"Go to Ispan, then"
"But your uncle is chief magistrate
there"
"Go to Damascus, then"
''But your nephew rules there"
"Then. if my family will not allow
you to live in this world, 60 to h-l."
"Ah me-" replied the Jew, You for
get your respected father is dead"

Fresh News at Home.

Mr.. Francis E. MacMahon, son of
the well Brooklynite, Patrick
MacMahon, and himself brought up in
this city, where he was born, has sue
cesded in London in adapting an instru-
ment, somewhat similar in principle to
the gold and stock indicator in use here,
applying it to tie transmission and re-
cording of current news in clubs, private
houses, ETC., and has achieved a great
furore over the instrument and it's &C
omplishments. From letters written to
his father here, and from extended no.
tices in the English papers, it is learned
that the instrument, besides being in use
in great numbers in private houses, no
tells, etc., has won its way into such
clubs as the Conservative, the Turf,
Junior Carleton, Naval and Military,
Royal Thomas Yacht Club, Devonshire
County, Junior Army and Navy, Raj
eigh, Whist, Victoria, Incorporated Law
Society and others. The Morning Post,
of April 2lst, says of it:
No peer, no member Of the House of
Commons, should be without oEe of the
instruments, for not alone will it tell
MIN in plain Roman print, which can
easily be read, what is saying and who
is saying it, but the subscriber can see
from the course of the debate whether
or not it IS necessary for him to 90 down
to the House. The new agency, consist
ing as it does of a very small limited
company, has been tested even by Ger
tain evening journals and found not
wanting On the contrary, throughout
the elections it kept its patrons more
speedily and perfectly correctly informed
nished with one of these news instru-
ments-as you can be for very moder-
ate outlay of fifty guneas years. to
be the proud possessor of a newspaper
of your own, and to be familiar with all
the news hours before it can possibly
appear in the evening journals. When
a crucial division is on at the House,
when a great race is being run at Ep-
som, Ascot, Goodwood, distant New
market, or more distant Chester, you
stand alongside your Mae Mahon and
find the little instr ument rapping out
the result of division. or race, or what
ever 1T may chance to be that you are
Waiting to know about.
Mr.. MacMahon is justly proud of this
success of his son, and this feeling is
shared by every one who is interested in
the good repute abroad Of this country,
and of his sharp-witted, intelligent coun-
trymen, wherever they may bs.-Brook-
lyn Eagle.

Whitaker came down to the Point. His
I'LL g.


gun squad was there in perfect drill, for
he hod shown them so often he would do
it il he could only get permission, and
they had taken so much interest, that
each man was proficient in his part.
The General took his place where he
could watch the effect of the shot. He
was little anxious.
"Now, Marshall, he said, ''be careful!
Don't you explode gun and kill me,
yourself and half dozen men,"
"Never fear General, responded
Marshall confidently. "Tll hurt no gun
Now watch where the first shot goes "
Everything was in readiness, and Mar
shall pulled the lanyard. Gen. Whitta-
ker took the glasses from his eyes and
said:
"Too high, Marshall, too high! 1t
went hundred yards above the flag"
Eyes, sir know that, and the next
shot will be fifty yards above it"
And the next shot was fifty yards
above Is
"Now, General, this time I'll fetch
the flag"
The gun doomed. General Whitta-
ker looked for the flag. At last he burst
out, "By -, Marshall, she's gonel'
In his delight he forgot the distinctions
of rank, and, handing his glass to pri-
vate of the gun squad, told him to take
look. The soldier did SO, and corrob-
grated the General. The glass passed
around, anu all saw that the flag was
gone.
General Whitaker went to Marshall
and said: marshall, my man, con-
graduate you. I'm going right over to
Chattanooga and tell Gen. Brannan that
the Eighteenth Ohio battery knows more
than he does"
Gen. Brannan was an honorable. if a
strict officer and when he heard that
Marshall had succeed in shooting the flag
he sent him his congratulations, and CON-
meAded him for his skill. But General
Whitaker employed Marshalls triumph
even more than did Marshall himself,
and he always afterwards treated him
with great consideration and favor, and
he would rub his hands and laugh with
the intensest of relish whenever he had
occasion to relate how Lieut.. Marshall,
of the Eighteenth Ohio battery knew
more of practical gunnery than the Chief
of Ordance of the Army of the Cumber-
land, and had forced him to take water
on an opinion.

How to Live Under Water.

A London correspondent writes to
the Partisan. The mystery of GLOW to
live under water" which has so puzzled
the visitors to the Polytechnic, and driv-
en- our savans almost to despair, has at
last been solved. The gentleman who
used to descend into the pool and remain
for hours there, with no air-pipe, yet
without even sending so much as a bulb
BILE to the surface, has taken out his pat
ent for the process He was wont to
say that when he came to explain the
matter, every one would exclam "How
simple!" like the spectators in the case
of Christopher Columbus egg trick, and
perhaps to the Swans it may be so; but
I doubt whether the general public will
understand the thing even now. Briefly
the facts are these: he has the helmet
like the ordinary diver, and in this is
packed compressed sir-just as an ex-
plorcr might take box of meat lozen-
ges in his pocket-which is supplied to
him as he wants it; his own breath,
which would of course be poison to him,
is exhaled into receptacle filed with
preparation of soda, which absorbs and
anninilates it. There is practically no
limit to the time that he can by this
means exist under water; and his sys-
tenn, while it dispenses with expensive
air-pumps and other gear, has this i'm
mense advantage over the whole arrange
ment, that there is no air-pipe to be ell
tangled or broken; so that he can move
in and about wreck, like a dry man
about the carcass of house.

Funny Philology.

"How do you pronounce s-t-i-ng-yP
Prof. Stearns asked the young gentle
man nearest the foot Of the class. And
the smart bad boy stood up and said it

ment and then said 'there was still the
same element of uncertainty. If it was

grinder paused under the college win
dows to play "Pinafore" and nobody
could hear the rest of the sentence. -

Intellect in the Spider.

Some time since l observed the fol-
lowing conduct of two spiders, which
will show how they sometimes overcome
difficulties in the way Of capturing their
prey. A rather large honse spider had
it's web in the corner of room, and dur
ing the Summer it Toasted upon the in
sects that were unlucky enough to be
caught. One evening l noticed large
dipterious insect strike the web; the spi-
der darted out and succeeded in fasten-
ing one foot of the fly. The spider then
kept running back and forth, attaching
u thread TO each leg, which was broken
by the violent efforts of the fly to release
itself. The spider worked without ceas-
ing it for over half an hour to secure his
victim; it then quilted operations;
and retired to distant cor
ner of it's web. After seeming to re.
fleet for while what was best to do, it
left the web, went up the wall eight or
ten inches distant, and entered crack
in the ceiling. l supposed at the tine
that the spider had been injured in the
scufiie, but what was my surprise after
a few moments to see the spider coming
back, and close behind another followed.
The two went on the web near the cen
ter, and stopped side by side, apparently
consulting as to the best mode of attack.
Then at ,he same instant both spiders
darted upon the insect, one toward the
head the other toward the tail. So
rapid were their movements l could
hardly follow them. In short time
the insect was securely fastened. Both
spiders then returned to the center of
the web. Soon after the friendly spider
went to the crack in the ceiling, while
the other enjoyed the feast alone

Uncle Ben White, that Anticipated,
crippled and white-headed darkcy al

begging for a small loan, was looking so
proud and contented yesterday that an
acquaintance asked him the cause.
"Wall, does feel bit stuck uE sah,
