The Execution of Cox.

Chastine Cox, the colored murderer of Mrs. Hull, was hanged in the New York Iombs few days ago. Cox showed extraordinary courage at the last moment, walking to the scaffold without a tremor. Mrs. Jane l.. De Forest Hull, the victim of Chastine Cox, was found dead in her bed at her residence, No. 40 West Forty-second street, New York, on the morning of June II, 1879. She was blindiolded and had gag in her mouth, ana her hands and feet were tied. On her cheek and breast were drippings oi a stearlne candle, and one of her eyebrows was slngeu. The bureau was found to have been broken open, and considerable jewelry was missing, among other things gold watch and chain, neck lace and locket and several rings. Two theo- ries as to the murder were immediately ad' vanced the C inside theory and the outside theory" Tie New York police were iol- lowers of the " inside theory" and suspicion soon fell on the murdered woman's husband, pr. Alonzo s. Hull. In the midst ot the coroner's investigation word came from Boston that the murderer had been arrested there. Private Detective s. l.. Otto, whose services had been engaged by Dr. Hull's friends, came to the conclusion that Cox, who had formerly been in Mrs. HuIPs employ, was the mur- derer, and finding that he had left for Boston on the day after the tragedy, he followed him thither. Cox was first recognized on the street by MT. Balch, a reporter ot the Boston Herald who bad been furnished with de- scription of his appearance. He followed Cox to coIored Methodist church. He sent word to the police, and Detective Wood soon ar rived and took Cox into custody as he left church. part of Mrs. HulPs jewelry was found on his person, and other articles were discovered in a pawnbroker's shop where he had pawned them. Cox made 8 full confess sion of his crime. He was brought to New York city and put on trial on July l2 He was convicted of murder in the first degree and on July IT he was Senten ed to be hanged. stay ot proceedings was secured and an appeal was taken on October 29. He was re- sentenced on the twelfth of April last and was respited once

Artists Models in Paris.

The profession, if we may so describe it, or an artists model is one which, in the headquarters of painting, affords 8 llv1l1hoOd to no small number of per- sons of either sex. Possibly a few out of the number are chosen for their ex- ceptional ugliness, and are employed to sit for such characters as Richard III :. Caliban, and Judas Iscariot. Others are no doubt, selected for the particular purposes of special artists, apart from any real or supposed beauty, strength, or grace. But after allowing for these exceptions, it may still be taken for granted that the great ma ajority of models are employed for the sake of thelr pre- emineTce in personal beauty
 It follows, if this be so. that census of the different nationalilies employed in this way might afford a sort of rough test ot the proportion of the male and female beauty in the several countries of the world. We are, of course, without any such general statistics upon which to work cut what might be an interest ing problem. But in Paris, where a very large number of artists are con stantly assembled, such a list has been made out, and 1t affords some help to- ward drawing the comparison already suggested. It appears that in the French capital the total number oi models employed by painters, sculptors, and photographers is 67l; and that these are furnished in the following proportion by the principal nations of the world :: Italy, of course, comes first with total of 230, or more than q third of the whole list. France is next, with l20; but the test as regards France is of little value, considering that the natives of the place would naturally enjoy greater chance of being engaged. The third and fourth places in order are occupied by nations which might, perhaps, fairly be ex- pected to stand much lower down-by Germany, which provides eighty, and by Switzerland, which provides sixty
 Belgium is represented by forty, and England by forty five models, while the Americans send contingent of no less than thirty. Ireland, which has fur nished so many English painters with models of the brunette type. boasts q solitary representative in Paris; Portu- gal. two, and Austria Hungary, three 1; but Spain is unaccountably omitted from the list. Out of the whole 67l 8 great majority are between the ages of sixteen and twenty-one. In fact. there arc only l30 who are above the last mentioned age. The professions from which they are taken are the dramatic, furnishing sixty models; the dress making class, forty; flower girls. thirty five. and workers with the needle, thirty. The other professions are represented only by much smaller contingents.

A Habit Of IndecisIon.

There is great deal of truth in what a gifted writer says concerning habits of indecision or dilatoriness. It is so much of it pure habit that children can not be too early taught, first the neces- sity of making up one's mind, and then of acting upon it. The trick of chang ing about" of waiting minute after minute, hour after hour, in work as in play-for idlers never play conscien- tiously--is often acquired in mere in- fancy, in imitation ( f elders and betters, never to be got rid of to the end of life What is in the boy or girl pure carelesg- ness becomes in theman and woman 9 confirmed peculiarity, which haunts them like a curse, cusing no end of misery to themselves and to all belong ing to them.

Baby,s Snnbonnets

They watched hiti ffom the window as he came hobbling along-a queer looking old msn, lame,-- feeble, and showing by his dress that misfortune was his foe. A baby girl not more than two years old had been playing house on the lawn. Weary with her efforts to. make a housekeeper Of dolly she had flung herself down in the shade and fallen aalsep. Her calico sunhon- net, made good and large to shield her innocent white face from the sun, was lying on the grass near the walk,sand it was the sight of this that halted the old man. No one knows what Q twinge it may have given his old heart. It is not the stage with its melodrama-its hero- ines in silk or it's children in rags which touches the springs of the heart the quickest. A child's toy will some times warm an old heart sooner than all the sentiment of the stage.
 The old man stopped wearily down and picked up the sunbonnet. He turned it over and over, as if he had found treasure. Catching sight of the sleeping child he walked softly to the fence and sat down beside her. It was 8 sweet, rosy face to look upon, and he seemed hardly to breathe as he bent over her. Then vision came to him
 -came to him through halt century of weary years, worlds buffets, life's good and bad, and Le leaned back against the fence and tears ran down his wrinkled cheeks. They were watch ing him from the window, but he did not see them. If he had perhaps he could not have restrained his tears, for through the mist another rosy face appeared to him-a wee little face, half hidden in another calico sunbonnet. It came just long enough 10 swell his heart until he gasped for breath like one choking, and then it gave place to a little grave, one dug so long ago that the rains of heaven have smoothed the earth and plotted its identity out Of existence. He reached out his hand as if trying to grasp something, and then the world with it's busy stTeets- its hurrying feet-its seltishne and uu- kind words came back to hIin.
 Softly, quietly, tenderly he crept a little nearer, bent down with bated breath and kissed the white face. Then ne spread the sunbonnet over the little bare arm on which the sun had just began to fall, and rising up with a sob in his throat he passed on, and behind him followed the shadow which had left him for awhile, the shadow which the world carves out of its creed and selfishness to track the old and poor from square to square from dawn to dark. A smile came to the rosy mouth of the sleeping child. She had made an old man young for a moment-she had opened heart which poverty's curses had supposed locked forever ,--Detrott Free Press.

A Curious Case.

The supreme court of Michigan has given a somewhat novel decision, sLow- ing under what circumstances an orna- mental painter in designing fancy sign may follow his own taste instead of the written eirecti2ns of, the gerson order York painter and the defendants were Detroit bakers In answer to letter from the bakers, the painter sent pen- cil sketch of a design for a fancy sign CT show-card. On receipt of this the de- fendants added the word established on one side of the design and the figures ''l875" or the other side. They returned this modified sketch to the painter, made some general suggestions as to the style of letters, expressed a wish to have their names and crackers little more prominent" and wound up with the spirited command, "Give tis a clean, neat label" A few days afterward, the defendants hearing that firm of rival bakers W ere getting up a Stunning show-card." wrote to their New York artist, We want something that will beat theirs." Under these directions the plaintiff produced about .O0O signs and sent them to the defendants. The latter refused to take them. Chief among the reasons assigned for this re- fusal was that the word established" and the figures "l975" appeared at the top of the design instead of the sides, where the defendants bad indicated in the preliminary sketch that they should be put. The plaintiff brought suit for the amount of his bill. The court in- structed the jury to find for the defend- ants unless they thought that the place where the word and figures in question were to appear was left to the | painters discretion. The jury found l that the signs had not been painted &C., cording to order, and returned verdict | in favor of the defendants. The supreme court sets aside this verdict and holds that it was for the court to interpret the contract and not for the jury to find whether the plaintiff was authorized to determine the position of the word and figures. The court re- marked that it had not been disputed that the arrangement adopted by the | painter was far better than that sug- gested by the bakers, and that the de- | sign as finally prepared stood the best chance to ''beat" the rival bakers sign. There was no doubt that 8 man might order what he pleased and insist on a painter obeying instructions. But in this case the vital question was whether the modified sketch returned by the de- fendan's and what they had written amounted to imperative instructions, or whether they gave the painter much discretion. The question was as to the meaning of the contract. The supreme court remarked that the plaintiff was a skilled designer and painter of fancy signs, and that it was natural and proper that much should be left to his taste and judgment. Moreover. the defend ants had written, Give us a clean, neat label" and had expressed wish for sign that would "beat" that of their neighbors. These circumstances, as the court holds, gave to the painter a large discretion and warranted him ir changing the position of certain words and figures from the sides to the top o the design in order to secure better artistic results.
