How Lafayette's Statue Came to
Wear a FrOwn.
tSan Francisco Post.

The recent unwilling Of the bronze
statue of Gen. Thomas, at Washington,
recalls an incident connected with the
colepsal equestrian statue of Lafayette,
froslting the east entrance of the agrieul-
tural department in that city, and which
aptly illustrates the proverbial ingrati-
tude and apathy OF republics. The stat
ute was finished by its designer, young
italian sculptor without means, early in
lS49, button one excuse or another. pay
ment for the work was put off until the
dedication, which occurred in the spring
of 1851. BY this time the artist had be-
come weary of asssiling Congress with
his importonities for relief, and had sunk
into absolute poverty-indeed, had be-
come quite forgotten. The unveiling Of
his work took place at last, however,
amid pompous ceremonies and the BOOM
ing of cannon. As the canvas drapery
was drawn aside, amid the huzzas of the
enthusiastic multitude, q tat,ered, mise
rable object was discovered seated astride
the bronze steed, just in front of the 6g-
ure OF the great French General, and ap-
parently sleeping peacefully, protected
by its huge bronze arms. The commit
tee of ceremonies, among whom was an
uncle of the writer, approached and an
grily ordered the tramp to Withdraw
But the sleeper did not stir, and when q
ladder was lifted to remove the impu-
dent intruder they found the starved
form OF the sculptor, dead, with his stif-
fened cheek resting upon the breast Of
his own creation. ,5 5af
There is local tradition that the stat
ue's face has worn frown ever since.

The English Bible.

The history OF The, English Bible
covers period Of o7er 300 years. The
first attempt at it's translation into the
English language was made BY Richard
Relies, whose work appeared about 1850,
An unsuccessful attempt was made by
the House of Lords in, 1490 to. ehtirely
prohibit its, use. During the reign OF
King Henry v q law wss passed that
"whoever should read the scriptures IA
their mothertongue should forfeit land,
cattle, body, life and goods, from their
heirs forever. and be condemned fot
heretics to God, enemies OF the crown,
and most arrsnt traitors OF the land..''
Fauts, the inventor of printing. who un-
dertook its sale at Paris, was condemned
as magician, and narrowly escaped
dealh, because of the comparatively rap
id production of the copies. The fret
edition of the Bible printed in any mod
ern language was in German in 1867.
Later, Archbishop sCfsnmer obtained
"a commission from the King to prepare
a translation which was to be printed at
Paris, but the Inquisition interfefed and
over 1000 copies we're seized and bnfn-
ed. The FIRST Bible printed in England
was a Antwerp, and several copies
were sold, when Sir Thomas Moore eou.
demned all who sold them TO ride with
their faces TO the horses tails. With pa
pers on their. heads, and to throw their
Bibles and themselves into the Gre at
Cheapside. The present authorized
revision appeared in l611, being trans.
lated by AZ learned authorities chosen
from the universities In England.

Grants Cigar.
New York SUM-

With party Of friends, including sew
eral ladies, Gen. Ulysses S. Grant dined
the other evening in the public dining
hall Ct the Palmer House, Chicago. or
course, when his presence became known,
the guests Of the hotel made point to
dine at the same hour. The room was
full of fashionably dressed men and wo-
men. Grants demeanor at the table WAS
watched with natural curiosity, in order
to ascertain how far his manners had
been improved by travel and intercourse
with the upper circles Of European So
ciety.
The table at which Gen. Grant and his
friends were seated was remote from the
entrance to the room. When the ex-
President of the United States had fin
ished his dinner he tipped his chair back,
and without remark drew from bis
pocket cigar case. He deliberately Sc
lected q large Havana, bit of the end,
called TO the astonished waiter for a
match, lighted his cigar, and sent clouds
OF smoke right and left and up toward
the frescoed ceiling.
The guests at the other tables looked
upon this proceeding with undisguised
amszement. One lady arose and left the
room. The ladies of Grants party were
somewhat embarrassed, and hastily made
preparations to depart. Grant, however,
exhibited perfect unconcern. He got up
when his friends srose, and slowly walk
ed the length Of the room, his cigar frm-
ly held at q sharp angle between his
teeth, putting vigorously away.
As soon as the ex- Presidents party
had disappeared, and the, murmur of dis
gust had subsidized, commercial trav-
eler, who had been sitting not far from
Grant, drew q cigar from his pocket,
lighted 1t aad sauntered down the room.
l"Tbis is q free country," he remarked,
sand one citizen is as good as another,
here or anywhere else"
This occurrence was witnessed by
more than hundred people. and is still
the talk OF the hotel.

Table Salt an Aperient.

Physicians.have for long time known
that common table salt is an efficient ape
rient in ordinary cases Of constipa-
tior. In lecture on case of nervous
affection, DR.. Weir Mitchell, of Phila.
delphia, said that he had recommended
the patient to take each morning on ris-
ing tumbler of water-cold, to pre-
vent nauseating which was dissolved
teaspoonful OF table salt. "Tbis sim.
pie aperient," the doctor. adds, 81 fre-
quently employ in cases of constipation.
and generally find it efficient. There is
great advantage iE starting the bowels
and in keeping them in soluble condi-
ton, particularly in case Of nervous dis
order in women, as it sometimes clears
up obscure points in the case, and at all
events eliminates one source Of error"

"Do you think the public would ac-

reporter. 81
"That is question that you are bet
ter able to answer than am. OF course,
il the public il satisfied it is useless to
discuss the matter at all. If public opin-
ion won't consent to substitute another
method of executing criminals then
would suggest that an expert at hanging
should be appointed in each State. The
work should not be intrusted to inexpe-
rienced men like Sheriffs, who are apt to
be unnerved even when they know
