Edwin Forests Chivalry.

The manly elements of Mr.. Forrest S
character made him at all times the ready
champion of the weak and defenceless.
He was especially chivalrous in his con-
duct to women. This one instance is a
sample: He was returning from New
York after successful engagement in
that city, and seated opposite MIN in the
car were two young ladies. They were
travelling without male escort. When
the cars stopped at Newark person en-
tered and took a seat Immediately back
of the ladies. ~e-.e~---r..s
He was Of the loud class, full of paste
jewellery, impudcnce aud bad manners.
The latter was soon painfully apparent
with reference to the ladies. He indulged
in offensive language, and seemed to
think the whole matter was a good Joke.
In short time the language and con-
duct of the man and the evident distress
of the ladies arrested the attention of MI.
Forrest. He left his seat, and facing the
obnoxious passenger said:
evil you please vacate your seat?
You are offensive to these ladies'
'sGuess not, replied the man, with the
coarse and rude expression of bully
and rufHan; II have paid Cor my tick
ct, and will sit where I please
"But,n answered MI. Forrest, and the
color mounted to his cheeks, s'your tick
ct does not give you the right to insult

THE DRIED SCOTT DECISION.
from the Albany Law Journal

r.
The original opinion in the famous
bred Scott case was prepared by associate
Justice Nelson, and, if this opinion had
stood as that of the majority, for which
it was written, it would have called for
no expression of judicial views on the
constitutionality of the Missouri Com
promise act. But after this opinion was
written motion was made in confer
ence of the court for reargument of
the case at the next term. This motion
prevailed. Judge Nelson's opinion was
set aside, and two questions were
framed by the Chief Justice to be ar
gued de novo at the bar. These ques-
tions involved the facts set up in the
plea to the jurisdiction, and the power
of the court to take notice of and deter
mine the citizenship of the plaintiff on
those facts, after that plea had been
overruled by the Circuit Court, and the
defendant had been ordered to plead to
the merits. If the facts could be no.
tlced and amounted to proof ih law
that Scott was not citizen, the court
had no Jurisdiction. If on the facts
Scott, should be held to be citizen,
then the merits could be gone into
and the validity of the Missouri COM
promise restriction became question
before the court. On this basis the
case was reargued. It was held that
Scott was not a citizen, hut the court
Notwithstanding assumed jurisdiction
of the merits. '#.G s#
The result was brought about by the
influence of MIR. Justice Wayne, who
had convinced himself that the "peace
and harmony of the country" required
Judicial "decision" to the effect that
Congress had no constitutional power
to prohibit the introduction of slavery
in the Territories. With his impulsive
and imprisoned way of treating such
question he succeeded even in mag
netizing Judge fancy, who could only
have been mastered by Judge Wayne's
appeal to his feelings-to that kindness
and benevolence toward all human
beings which so eminently distinguished
that great jurist and Christian gentle
man. It was not surprising that Judge
Wayne should have carried Judg e
Grier and Judge Catron with him
they had good many of the same
qualities of mind and disposition that
were conspicuous in their sanguine and
enthusiastic colleague. But Judge
Taney's nature was different, and he
for once sank his judicial in his politi-
cal character, because he thought the
end that seemed to him desirable justi-
fed the means by which he proposed
to attain it.

MI. Forrest then drew his watch from
his pocket and buttoned his coat The
ruffian took another glance at the deter
mined eye and stalwart frame of his oppo-
nent and with murmured threats OF venge-
ance left the car The ladies had no further
annoyance with him.
This is an authentic anecdote of one
whose whole life was, in many respects,
romance.

A Story of Steel Pens,

Few persons who use steel pens on
which is stamped "Gillott" have any
idea of the story of suffering, of indom-
table pluck and persistence which be-
long to the placing of that name on
that article.
A long depression in trade in En-
gland threw thousands of Sheffield me.
chanics outof work, among them Jo-
seph elliott, then 81 years of age.
He left the city with but shilling in
his pocket. Reaching Birmingham, he
went into an old inn and sat down,
upon a wooden settle in the tap-room.
His last penny was spent for roll. He
was weak, hungry, and i'll. He had not
friend in Birmingham; and there was
little chance that he would find work.
In his dependency he was tempted
to give up and turn beggar or tramp.
Then sudden fiery energy seized him.
He Brought his fist down on the table,
declaring to himself that he would try
and trust in God, come what would.
He found work that day in making belt
buckles, which were then fashionable.
As soon as he had saved pound or
two he hired garnet in Bread street,
AIIu bucIo CdITlou Oh WOrk ZOE u1IQSol1,
bringing his taste AMI his knowledge of
tools into constant use, even when work
ing at handmade goods. This was the
secret of Gillott's success. Other work
men trudged on passively in the old
ruts. He was wide-awake, eager to i'm
prove his work, or to shorten the way of
working. .H .-.g. ill.,.
He fell in love with pretty and SEN
sible girl named Mitchell, who with her
brothers was making steel pens. Each
pen was then clipped, punched and pol
ished by hand, and pens were sold con-
sequently at enormously high prices. ~
elliott at once brought his skill in
tools to bear on the matter, and soon
invented machine which turned the
points out by thousands. in the time
that man would require to make one.
He married Miss Mitchell, and they car
ried on the manufacture together for
years.
On the morning of the marriage, the
industrious workman made q gross of
pens, and sold them for $50, to pay the
wedding fees. In his old age, having
reaped an immense fortune by his
shrewdness, honesty and industry, Mr..
Gilottwent again to the old inn, bought
the settle, and had the square on which
he sat that night sawed out and made
into chair, which he left as an heir
loom to his family, to remind them of
the secret of his success.

What Vanderbilt blight DO with His

Some one has made a very curious
calculation Of Whist MI. Vanderbilt could
do with his money. William II. Van
derbilts income from his Investments in
$$51, 600, 600 4-per-cent. Government
bonds is represented at $1,000 daily.
which is s208.25 per hour, So. A7 per
minute, OF owe s cents per second. As
Stunning that he is psid by the second.
he cannot possibly spend his money. as
he could not select his purchases andlay
down the prices fast enough. He.could
not throw it away; to pick up, cast, re-
cover, pick up and cast again would take
him two seconds, and, if he worked all
through the twenty-four hours without
rest, he could not dispose of one-half his
income. By living economically, saving
up for four years, he could, placing his
5-cent pieces side by side, make a nickel
belt around the earth, or by converting
his savings into 1-cent pieces and mount
ing them in a pile, he would, in twenty
years, erect a road to the moon and have
$500 to invest when he got there.
Should his amusement take charitable
twist, he could, out of a years receipts,
donate to every man, woman and child
in the United States 20 cents and have
money left over. Other vast possibiili-
ties occur to the glowing fancy Of the
calculator. In one day he could 20 to
5000 different circusses, eat 10, 900
Pints Of peanuts, drink 5000 glasses of
lemonade, and have money left to get
his boots BACKED. He can afford to
have SOC, 900 shirts washed in one day.
and on the day Of his death his income
will buy ten frst-class funerals.-lMaca

Rewarded for Sinking His Ship.

a remarkable instance OF presence of
m1nd on the part of the Captain of a
man-of-war is related by the st. Peters
burg papers. The Russian war frigate
Olaf, which had accompanied the yacht
OF the Czarowich to Copenhagen, was
lying at anchor among hundreds of other
ships in the harbor, when q fire was dis
covered In the coal bunker below, which
was only a few feet from the powder
magazine. There was no time to put out
b lire before it could reach the maya
zlne, and an explosion of the large stores
OF cartridges and %gunpowder contained
IN it would probably have destroyed not
only the Olaf, and the surrounding ships,
but part of Copenhagen itself. Capt.
hehDlnder, tho commander of the Olaf,
saw at once that the only thing TO be
done to prevent a catastrophe was to
sink the ship. After sending away the
crew with the ships papers, cash boxes
md valuable instruments in boats, he
ordered the carpenters and engineers to
make q leak in the vessel, and half an
1our afterwnrd she sank in not very
deep water. Next day she was raised
again, and after some provisional repairs
was taken to Cronstadt. The damage
dom Is stated to be comparatively til
ting, and a court martial held on the
officers of the vessel unanimously ex-
pressed the highest praise of the conduct
OF the Captain anG men. The Emperor
. appointed him bis aide-de-camp,
which IS n of the highest honors con-
ferred on Russian naval officers. and
men under him have received gratuities

Patent Flour.

Almost everybody knows Of patent
flour, but not everyone understands
what it is. Stripped Of technicalities,
this is about the story of its manufaet-
ure: The best flour used to be made Of
winter wheat. Spring wheat yielded
either much less in quantity, or else so
much OF the bran got into the -four in
its manufacture that it's color was intol-
erably dark. The wheat would be
ground and then bolted. In the refuse
the bran and middlings-would be in
Guided a large proportion of the spring
wheat, and this would sell more particu-
larry for feed for horses. Now the best
of flour, and the most expensive, is made
OF this very refuse Of the o%ld-fashioned
process. It all came out of the discov-
cry OF a way to draw out the bran. I'm
der the new process the wheat is ground
about as before. The first result is an
ordinary flour soldier expectation. Then
the remainder is taken and put upon
great horizontal sieves, and while aigta-
ton is going on there an ingenious sys-
tenn Of draf t is rushing up through, and
%carriesof the bran. What is left is the
glutinous portion of the wheat, the most
nutritious and most productive, and out
OF this, purified now by the drawing off
OF the bran, we get our new-process
-four. The result Of the discovery Of the
process has been to make the poor spring
wheat of Minnesota and upper Wiscon-
sin the most valuable Of prain
