York. and W. A. & G. S. Houghton, Sacra-
mento, we have quarto cover containing
series of character sketches from Charles
Dickens, being fac-similes of original draw
ings by Fred. Barnard. The sketches, which
are on photographic plates, are admirable, full
of life, and speak the work OF a master carl
caturist. They come up closely to the best ideal
conceptions OF suca characters as Alfred
Jingle, Little Dorrit, MIR. Pickwick, Bill
Skies and Mrs. Camp. As art works they
will take high rank, being among the best
realizations through the medium of the
artists pencil of the character sketches of the
great novelist.
Of D. Appleton & Co.'S New York;
Handy Volume Series we have two new
numbers, "The Foresters," by Berthold
Auerbach, novel of the best school and one

Gladstone" by Charles II. Jones. This last
volume contains extracts from the speeches
and writings of the great English statesman
and party leader.

"Jack and Jill" is small volume by
Louisa NJ Alcott. published by Roberts
Bros. Boston, and for sale by W. A. & G. S.
Houghton Isl 50). The Alcott stories are
too well established to call for extended re-
mark There is no more successful writer for
children than Louisa III. Alcott, and this
new story will BE- found to be up to the
standard her series has attained.
1.-The Worst Boy in Town." is a small vol
ume from the press of G. P. Putnams
Sons, New York 1t is by the author of
" Helen's Babies" The book is fair and
harmless, but it is neither brilliant nor
stTikingly interesting. 1t is a volume that
will do for boys to read when they have no
better literature at hand-but then in the
wealth OF fine writing for the youth of the
land every boy ughtto have more thorough
boys book at hand at any time.
st. Nicholas for November (Scribner &
Co.. New York; is at hand, and proves to be

young folks of America.
From D. Appleton & Co. we have an vo.

ments in different keys and ryhthms, but
all blended together in such manner as to
make complete whole.
In answer to a query, j. Conway Brown

A COURAGEOUS MIssIoSARY.-The corre-
spondent of the the Philadelphia Telegraph
relates this incident in the life of Mr.. Par
sons, the American missionary, who, with
his servant, was first robbed and then
murdered recently by nomad Turks, while
he was carrying succor to the starving peo-
pie living near the Sea of Marmora ::
" Some years ago, MIR. Parsons, riding
alone, unarmed and with nothing of value
about him save small package of Bibles
and Testaments, was stopped by three des-
peradoes, who commanded him to disburse
in their favor. l have no money about
me, mildly remarked the missionary.
What are You carrying in your package
there? roughly asked one of the men.
Only good books was the answer and
taking one Bible out, by dint OF exhorting
these hardened criminals were persuaded
to purchase and pay for Bible apiece,
they leaving money with him who had in
tended stripping him of all he had. This
is but an instance of his courage and gen.
tleness."

Grain shins

The loss of grain ships in crossing the At
lantic, is becoming so serious matter as to
attract the attention of the British Parlia-
ment. The difficulty originates in the shift
ing of cargo in bulk, which takes place
from the careening OF vessel in gale. In
loading ships from elevators, the dust is so
binding as to prevent good trimming, and
leave the hold comparatively empty when
the cargo is settled. The vessels used for
carrying heavy articles, such as pig iron and
machinery, are not suited by their build for
carrying grain in bulk, which is of a specific
gravity not differing very much from water.
The plan of carrying grain in bags is expen-
sive, and the most feasible remedy suggested
is the use of false partition, in the shape of
hollow inverted triangle, along the center
of the vessel from the deck to the keel. Ma
ture furnishes hint of this device in the
manner in which the brain is divided while
supported in the skull

THE FAsH1oNBLE sTooP.

1t is fashionable now to stoop; not met.
aphorically but literally. The latest freak
of metropolitan bellies is nothing less than
shoulders until they look like hopeless con.
sumptives. A correspondent of the SYRIA
cuse Journal thus writes of this idiotic
fashion. The grand afternoon parade of
the bellies on Fifth avenue has begun. See
ing number of young women elegantly
dressed, STOPPING over as though weak
chested, or chary of stepping on their heels,
/ looked at them with sympathy as
they passed, but when the number
increased | asked the meaning of
this peculiar bend, or stoop of the
bellies. Imagine your correspondents sur
prise to learn chat it is the fashion for a
woman to walk as though she was crippled
with age, round. shouldered and has no
chest to speak of in particular. The whole
weight of the body seems to be on the toes,
and it is distressing to see a pretty girl
make such deformity of herself. A serv-
ants recent description of belle is as
follows: "Well, ma am, walked down
Fifth avenue on Sunday afternoon and l
saw some fine young ladies that made me
sorry for them. Why, ma'am, l think
their spines are crooked, the poor things
and one young lady in particu-
lar everybody was looking at. She
had on a rich purple satin dress, but
it was that short you could see the
tops of her shoes, and her hat was purple
satin, too, and 1t just hung on the back OF
her head. Her elbows were stuck out
square, and her back bent over so-and
she was that hollow in the chest that
could have cried for her. But it was queer
to see such handsome girl leading little
yellow dog with black nose by purple
ribbon and you will believe me ma'am,
the dog had a piece of purple satin around
its stomach, just the color of her dress,
suppose to keep it warm" 1t is needless
to add that Bridget has recently come
flom the old country, and her ideas Of
fashions and pug dogs are rather mixed.

DEFECTIVE EDUcArIos.-That the pub
lie schools don't teach properly even the
simplest branches is a fact which is con-
stantly being proved and reproved to pop
ular dissatisfaction, says the New York
Tribune. The Lansing Republican men
tions that of the twenty-one applicants for
the vacant cadetship at West Point, ex-
amined in that city recently, less than one
third were good penmen, much less num-
Der good spoilers, and scarcely single
applicant would have been called pro-
ficient reader. In all the written exami,
nations errors Of punctuation and capitali-
cation may be found, and it was by no
means uncommon to find the most ordinary
words mispelled. In one, emmy" was
made to stand for "any," while in another
the name OF the martyr President was
spelled "Linken."

MINES AND MINING.

SUNDAY Nov. 21-P NJ
The mining stock markets last week were fairly
active, but there was good deal of irreRuarlty IN
tho movement of.prices. That, however, was because
of q growing disposition to make closer dlscr'mina
tons between the good and doubtful stocks as well
as regard to tho management OF the different prop
critics Hence the collapse, here and there, III the
price of fancy" no longer affects the prices o.
nor the steady demand there is for such properties
az have earned the public confidence. Without en-
terng into details, these words describe the part''
ular features of the markets, and they are features
that are favorable to a further development OF the
mining interest of the country when that interest Is
viewed from the standpoint OF legitimate enter
prlse-the production of general wealth from mother
earth, and not of individual wealth. through the
chances of q stock board. Yesterdays market pre-
scented nothing new. There were some recoyenes
made IN some of the low-prced stocks from the ex-
IRENE declines of the week, all others being steady
or firm. without material changes in prices except
for few stocks. OF the Leadvle shares, Chrysolite
gained 81 and Little Chief gained cents Iron
Silver 40 cents. The markets closed quiet ana
steady.
