THE catholicity of Scribner's Monthly

range of literary tastes For lovers of
light reading there are papers on 'Rocky
Mountain Nights (both poetical and
practically; "Spring Hereabouts," l. e., in
New York and suburbs, with illustra-
tions; ''Thackeray as Draughtsman,"
with over thirty reproductions of the no
velists sketches; "Life in Florence"
sprightly paper from an American point
Of view; my Friend, Mrs. Angel" a
humorous story of Washington life. The
current political interest is appealed to
by III. J. Raymon3's journal of ''The
Philadelphia Convention of 1885," and
Henry Kings picturesque sketch of "a
Year OF the Exodus in Kansas" and in
directly by Principal Grants third paper
on '"The Dominion of Canada" Other
papers, more solid and of curious inter
est, are Mr.. Scudders paper on civilian
Blake, Poet and Painter with portrait
illustrations, including "The Chariot of
Fire. and others never before engraved;
Rev. Isaac Ell. Halls account of 'The
Cypriote Inscriptions" the specimens of
which in the Metropolitan Museum were
deciphered by him; and Richard A. Proc
tors ''Sunspots aud Financial Panics."

claims made for it by the publishers.

THE DANGEROUS CANDIDATES.
den as candidate would be as dangerous
to his own party as Grant would be to the
Republican party, and more so. Tilden
is the one Democratic nominee who would
put Grants election within the line of po-
litical possibility; Nothing else can. The
nomination of Tilden would make the
open support of the Democratic ticket
by thoughtful Republicans practically i'm
possible. All Tilden's signal ability as
a political leader would avail nothing
against the blighting fact that under his
candidacy the Democratic party could
make no converts, and would receive no
reinforcements. The moral odds Of the
campaign would be against the party, and
every doubtful State in the North would
pass over to the Republican column.

REPORTED DIAMOND DISCOVERY IN
Peter Minton, William
Bremen, S. Reynolds, and J. Manuel were
prospecting near the side of the ancient
grist-1nill they found a quantity Of petri-
fled locusts and an ancient ancient clus-
ter of diamonds. There were nine dia-
monds originally in group, but one is
now missing The value the diamonds
or diamond stones is not as yet ascertain
ed. The material in which these rude
stones are set appears to have been made
of metallic ore, and have either drifted to
this quarter Of the globe or have been
carried hither and lost. These gentlemen
have placed their new discovery On exhi-
bition at the Raymond House. A reward
is offered by them of$500 to any one who
may find the missing stone. The petrl-
fed locusts are in a glass case and are al
SO on exhibition. Ho Lo, Chinaman,
who has laid claim to the ancieut grlst
mill as being Of Chinese origin, declares
that the stones in this settling are
similar to some ancient relics that have
been in the custody of the gods for 1000
years in the Joss house in Pekin.-Leee-

NOVEL SWIMMING DEvICE.-A French

NOVEL SWIMMING DEvICE.-A French
man in Lyons, named Gamonet, has in
vited a novel and withal practical device
for swimming Inflated india-rubber bags
support the swimmer, and enable him to
sit upright with head and shoulders above
water so that he can propel himself The
principal novelty Of this contrivance lies
in the propelling apparatus, which is con-
structed so as to collapse when pulled for
ward, and to spread out when pushed
back, like a ducks foot when swimming.
The propellors are supended by chains
or cords attached to the buoyant jacket.

A BABoON's DINNER.-One day a good
preacher, Bishop Colenso, was walking
along the Donga river, in South Africa
when I saw a number of balloons summing
themselves in little hollow of the ground
The balloons lay upon their backs and
their eyes were half-closed, just like lazy
Uncle Georges eyes are when he is tax
ing a snooze on the lounge. Two or
three of young baboops were at some dis
tance from the old ones, playing and
romping, for baboon children dearly love
to romp. BY and by one Of the young
ones, turning up a stone, lit upon a partic-
ularly Gne and fat scorpion, which, with
a scared glance at his elder, he seized and
popped into his mouth, having first
pinched off the sting. He at once proceed
ed to turn the stoneeover again with great
pains, as though in further unsuccessful
search for scorpions. He had not escaped
notice, however, for down the gully, in
sluggish roll came a great baboon, who
siezed the young one by the neck, shak-
ing him vigorously until the plump NOR
sci dropped from the pouch. Having
gobbled this up the elder baDoon at once
regained his lounge, and all went on as
before in the sleepy hollow.-Philade1-

title of "Hangman'' on account of a
declaration he once made in the United

way he would hang all the abolitionists.
Horace Greeley, then editing The New

as Hangman Foote, a title which clung
to him for many years. He redeemed
himself afterwards by opposing secession
and finally acting with the republican
party. He had arrived to the advanced
age of eighty years.
