SANDER.

Those who murder fame kill more than Nfe destroys
Of all the evils which escaped from
Pandora's box, Slander stands pre-emi-
nent, and, like Death, seeks ever shin
ing mark. The high but prove al aim for
it's envenomed shaft. Once let q man at
tain the grandest pinnacle of fame after
Lifetime Of toiling ambition, then Envy
drags her Shiny length across his path
way, and Scandal marks him for her
own.
A woman's good name is like crystal
mirror, which the slightest breath can
sully, dimming its radiance perhaps for
ever. Scandal can be INDUCED in in
more ways than the mere stating suppo-
sitious facts: nod, smile, a wink
when some good name is mentioned, and
. reputation pure - driven snow will
melt and fade meath the breath of cal
umny's fiery furnace. .
It's popular fallacy that women are
most inclined to indulge in this baleful
pastime, whereas they are only the pur-
veyors, as it generally originates with
the opposite and sterner sex. More rep
utations are torn to sh:eds over a warm
fire IN the club room, cocktail at the
bar, than are dreamed Of in feminine
philosophy. 1t is only when the deed is
done, and the corpse of dead name lies a
pitifnl spectacle, that they flock like vul-
tnres to their prey. Hence, never trust
= good husband, he tells his wife, and
she, everybody" has almost passed into
a proverb.
The slightest indiscretion can afford
the foundation whereon to erect the
most unsightly edifce of slander; a
moonlight walk, which means but pas
sing Irritation to the giddy participants !;
a rose-tinted note, written probably in
jest, and some foul tale as sourceless as
the Nile, flows down the social track
leaving honor stranded beyond redemp-
tion. ""
No word Of God or law Of man can de-
capitate this hydra-headed serpent,
which began to spit its venomous poison
from the time when Cain first nourished
his fraternal hatred, and will continue
till the lights are out, the curtain is
rung down, and the Angel Of Death
writes, "The End" PENELOPE.

The reprint Of the Edinburgh Re-
view for July has been recently issued
by the Leonard Scott Publishing Co.,
fl Barclay street, New York.
The first article, 1.-The Precursors of
Newton" is a sketch of the movement
of thought ia the seventeenth centu-
~ which led to such great scientific
results, and incidentally of the life of
DR. Robert Hooke, man whose ca
reer was the most conspicuous failure
of the century.
DR. Lindsay's recently published
book, mind in the Lower Animals
in Health and Disease" is the subject
of very attractive article. DR. Lind
says theory is that mind is the same
thing in the lower animals as it is in
man and numerous instances Of the sa-
gacity of animals which he has collec-
ted are here quoted; but the reviewer,
after q careful examination, declares
his arguments to be futile and his con-
illusions preposterous.
Naval Power in the Pacific" is an
account of Russian strongholds OF the
Pacific coast and the disadvantages
under which other European powers
labor in their endeavors TO keep nav
al force in those waters.
Other articles are memoirs of the
Prince Cousort;" 'Sabians and Chris
tians of st. Johp," who they are and
what their religion is, Landlords,
Tenants, and laborers;" memoirs Of
Madame de Remusat;" "Hodgkin's
Invaders of Italy" the story of changes
which brought to an end the life of
the ancient world, and transferred the
soeptre of Imperial Rome to the hands
of the Teutonic nations; "Bright's Edi-
ton of Pepys's Diary long review
with many quotations; "The Divorce
of Katharine of Aragon;" and The

Healthy Memphis.

The most noticeable evi ience we
have seen fthe wonderful good health
now enjoyed by Memphis is the portly
aspect that Ben. Bingham the pho
tographer presents. Heretofore he
has been so thin that his artists could
almost print from negatives while the
sun shone through his anatomy; but
now he weighs a little less than two
hundred pounds. We begin to think
ofgoing to Memphis ourself, to drink
in its life giving breezes.
