How Bismarck Did Resign in 1877.

1t will be remembered that about
the end of March, 1877, report was
current that Prince Bismarck had re-
signed and that his resignation had
been accepted by the Emperor Will
liam. In M. Hansen's "Coulisses de
la Diplomatic" the following account
is given of the event: The Emperor
William spent the evening of Thurs
day, the 9th of March, in the house
of Prince Anton Radzwill, who is
distantly related to the royal family,
and there met the Count n, who is
also an intimate friend of the Radzi-
will family. "Well, Count, said the
Emperor, .are you going to dine off
the Easter lamb with Prince Ferdi-
nand on Easter Sunday?" "Cer-
tainly, your Majesty" replied the
Count, ssunIess Herr Falk confscates
the lamb" "In that case" replied
the Emperor, 'syou need not be un-
der any apprehension for your din
ner." I am, however, not quite cer-
tain," replied the Count; "for how
can your subjects feel safe when
even Her Majesty, the Empress, has
to hide her charitable acts to avoid
being annoyed?" "How SO, Count2'
asked the Emperor. "Why, sire, "
replied the Count, "the Empress
gave officially 200 marks (about e10)
to tho Ursuiine Nuns who had been
expelled from Berlin; but secretly
Her Majesty sent 1000 marks" En-
couraged by the Emperor, Count N.
cited great number of other petty
vexatious acts of Herr Falk, acting
according to the orders of Prince
Bismarck. The Emperor, evidently
much annoyed, left early, and next
day he sent for Prince Bismark, who
pleaded i'll health. A second mes
senger ordered the Prince imme-
diately to appear at the Castle un-
less he was SO i'll as to have to keep
his bed, in which case the Emperor
would call upon him. Prince Bis
marck had to obey, and was closeted
for more than an hour with the En-
peror. On returning home, he at
once sent in his resignation. Pail

The Deep Sea.

Some interesting results of recent deep
sea explorations were concisely stated in
a late lecture at the Royal Institution,
London. Four -elevenths, or nearly three
fourths of the surface of the earth is COW
cred by sea- The average depth of the
ocean is, according to the latest calcula-
tions of Mr.. Otto Krummell, about ,877
fathoms, or something over two miles.
The greatest depth known to exist was
discovered bv the United States ship
Tuscarora near the Kurile Islands, in the
Northeast Pacific. 1t is 1866 fathoms, or
about five miles and a quarter. The highs
est mountain existing is of about the same
height as the deepest sea is deep. Mount
Everest is 1880 fathoms in height. So
insignificant, however, is the total volume
of the land raised above the sea level in
proportion to the vast cavity occupied bv
the aea, that were this cavity emptied of
its water, the whole of the land now
above sea level could be shoveled into it
it would be filled up to the present sea
level.
Nevertheless, the depth of the oceans.
great as it is, is nothing in comparison
with the vastness OF their extent of sur
face As Mr.. Croll has said, the oceans
in relation to their superficial area are as
shallow as sheet of water 100 yards in
diameter and only an inch in depth. The
sides of the ocean basins are not at all
| steep. They are mostly so little inclined
that an ordinary locomotive engine could
run up them in straight line with ease.
Their inclination is usually not more than
three or four degrees or less. Around
some oceanic islands the slope is Hreater.
The steepest slope known is at Bermuda,
where there is an inclination of nearly
twenty degrees from the edge of the reef
to 1000 fathoms. There are no such
things as mountains and valleys on the
deep sea bottom. Animals cannot slip
down against their will into the depths,
but must move deliberately into them.
and travel a long journey to reach them.
The pressure exerted by the superincum-
bent water at great depths is SO great as
to be almost beyond conception. 1t
amounts roughly to ton on the square
inch for every 1000 fathoms of depth,
ABOUT 166 as much as the pressure to
which people are subjected on land. At
the greatest depths the pressure Is about
four tons and half. Vast though this
pressure is. it is, however. only about one,
eight of that which Professor Abel and
Captain Noble have measured, as pro
duced in their experiments on gum
powder. The deep sea animals, being
completely permeated by fluids, are prob
ably no more conscious of pressure acting
upon them than we, and, SO long as they
move slowly from one depth TO another,
are most likely unaffected by consequent
changes of pressure.
With regard to the temperature of the
deep sea water, the conditions which
would affect animals are comparatively
simple. Nearly all over the ocean the
temperature at 500 fathoms is ss low as
500 F., and this is the case even imme-
'diately under the equator in the Atlantic
and Pacific Oceans. Below 1000 fathoms
the temperature is never more than few
the peculiar cases of land-locked seas,
such as the Sulu Sea.

The other day one of the postoffice bri :
gade of bootblacks desired to raise loan
of eight cents, and after some looking
around he found Little English, who was
perfectly willing to advance the amount,
providing he was secured. The borrower
had no collateral, and in this emergency
the advice of Jack Shepard was called for.
Easiest thing in the world when you
understand finance" replied Jack. "You
want to borrow eight cents 2"
eyes"
"Well, you hand over the cents as Sc
curity that you will pay it back"
The two sums changed hands, and the
borrower scratched his head and slowly
asked:
"How does this come? I haven't got
as much as I had before I borrowed any,"
Then the others scratched their heads
and looked puzzled, but Jack suddenly
got the idea.
cit is the collateral business that does
itp he confidently announced. "It's a
long word and liable to shrinkage, and if
you are only two cents short you've come
out awful lucky. Last time made raise
on collateral lost fifteen cents off the
dock and a six shilling jack-knife went
over to Windsor on shrinkagep

A VALUABLE DEvICE.-The Milwaukee
San says Sam. Medill has invented de-
vice to prevent market men from palm
ing off old eggs for fresh ones. The
invention is thus described: He pro-
poses to arrange rubber stamp in the
nest of every hen, with movable date.
This stamp is arranged with pad which
is saturated with indelible ink. When
the hen lays an egg, as is well known,
she kicks slightly with her hind leg. An
electric disk is arranged so that her foot
touches it, when the stamp turns over on
to the ink-pad, and then revolves, stamp
ing the date on the egg. The hen then
goes off about her business, the farmers
hired girl removes the egg, replaces the
stamp, which is ready for another On
each evening, after the hens have retired
to. their downy roost with the roosters,
the date of the stamp is arranged to the
following day, and the good work goes
on. In this was there can be no cheat
ing. You go to the grocery and ask for
fresh eggs, and the grocery man says he
has some eggs of the vintage of January
20, 1880, for instance. You look at
them, and there are the figures, which
cannot lie. With this method it is an
object for the man to get rid of his eggs,
knowing that tomorrow may be too late.

He would Write to their Parents.

Colonel x, of John Morgan's Cav
airy, was not martinez, but,
bearded like the pard, he had mill
tary air. Discipline was his hobby.
The soldiers of his regiment were
young men from eighteen to twenty
five years oid-all of them blue
blooded. To restrain these hot
spurs required tact, skill and firm
ness. 1t was no easy task to curb
this jeunesse doree. But the Colonel
did it, and this was the way he did it,:
dercd, the Brigadier and his staff
visited the Colonel's camp for the
purpose of conducting it. While the
regiment was in line, undergoing in
spection, two privates, who had been
ranging the night before in search Of
buttermilk, and had endeavored to
sneak into camp. unobserved, were
detected by the outpost sentinels
and brought under arrest to Colonel
K. at the head of his regiment. The
Colonel, cooking his hat on three
grains, sternly ordered them to his
tent to await his coming after in
spection, remarking to General D.
that he would make an example of
these rovers. Arriving at the tent
with the General and staff, after
ranks were broken the Colonel ar
raigned the culprits before him.
"Young gentlemen" said he, Sc
verely, "you are aware that you
have been guilty of serious offense
against the discipline of my camp?"
eyes, Colonel" was the meek reply.
"Well, sirs," thundered the Rhada
manthus, II desire you distinctly to
understand that if this offense is re-
peated I will write to your parents
about it. Go to your company"
Turning to the surprised officers
looking on, he said: You see how Sc
we're | must be with these young fel-
lows. Discipline must be preserved"

A Boys TRIALs.-To the ordinary lad
entrance into society is fiery ordeal. II
is great trial, either for tender or a
ripper age, for an over grown boy to go to
a door, knowing that there are dozen
girls inside, and knock or ring with an
absolute certainty that in few moments
all ewes will be upon him; it is a severe
test of courage to go before these girls,
and make the tour of the room without
stepping on their toes, and sit down and
dispose of his hands without putting them
in his pockets is an achievement which
few boys can boast. But even if he ac-
quits himself tolerably we'll during the
evening, his trials are not yet over. The
girls don their hoods and put on their
shawls, and look SO saucy and mischie-
vous, so unimpressible and Independent,
as if they did not wish anybody to 60
home with them. Then comes the pinch;
and the boy who has the most pluck goes
up to the prettiest girl in the room, with
his tongue clinging to the roof of his
mouth, and crooking out his elbow, stam-
mers out the words, "Shall I see you
homer" She touches her fingers on his
arm, and they walk home, feeling as awk-
ward as two goslings. Well, life has its
trials.

The White Tie.

A curious account is given of the way
in which Wallujeff, the present Vice
Chancellor, made his entry into the field
of statecraft.
He was an unpretentious young noble
of good parts, but no influence. Once,
at ball in Moscow, the Gar noticed
one particular young man amongst the
guests. He was the only one who wore
white tie. The Emperor, who was re-
cognized as being incognito. remarked to
him, laughingly:
You seem to be out of the fashion.
Why is it that all our fellow guests wear
black neckcloths but you ?"
9sThey are afraid of being mistaken for
servants"
ssAnd you"
''H am not gentleman enough to es-
cape falling victim to the mistake I am
willing to submit to it,
ga wit, thought the Gar.
And he favored the young man in the
white tie for an appointment, which end
ed in his climbing high enough to grasp
the portfolio of Minister of the en-

Graces dearly-purchased cluster was

| by short, crisp moss, ,and its edges fringed
with the loveliest bits and varieties of
moss imaginable carefully she watered

The Doctor and Grace both seemed to

something a little more choice than any
of the others.
One day they asked us. to bring them
each day curious roots and odd-shaped
branches, and the Doctor began the
making of rustic stand, which was not
finished until the last evening of our
stay. It was beauty, and the Doctor
proudly placed the messy bank of ferns
upon it, and told us in matter-of-fact
manner, that cit will adorn our library
this winter Grace's and NINE"
Thus cody was the engagement an
| nounced to the world, and we never
knew word of how it happened, nor
what had been their previous relation
to each other !; perhaps they thought it
was nobody's business. I shouldn't
wonder in the least some folks are just
so odd.
We knew it was no use to "act mad"
because our curiosity was not gratified,
so we cordially congratulated them, and
hade them a cheerful good -by DrOmiS-
ing to attend the wedding at Christmas.
The Doctor was not yet quite strong
enough to return to New York, and
Grace was too old to feel prudish about
staying with him after our departure.
Our kind host and hostess were nice
fatherly and motherly people, and would
properly care for the young ~ folks, SO
we could leave them without regret.
Grace will return to Boston when the
Doctors health permits, to prepare for
that wedding.
I have ordered painting of ferns,
MOSES and autumn leaves for my we'd
ding gift to Grace and the Doctor.

BOTTLED DEvIL.-It is strange how
much devilishness single whiskey jug
will hold. The following is an illustra-
ton. In recent Temperance meeting
in Philadelphia, Judge Pierce, one of the
speakers told the following story. the
facts of which were brought out in trial
in one of the courts of that city:
Let me tell you," said he, "what re-
suited from single gallon of whiskey,
which to most eyes seemed innocent and
harmless enough. There came out of it
two murderers, two widows, eight or
phans, and two cells in the state prison
filed with wretched convicts fora term of
two years. The whiskey, moreover, was
used in connection with religion. 1t was
drunk at the christening of a child, and
the men who drank it fought, and two
lost their lives, and the further results
were what have said. Did not Shake
speare say well, %, thou invisible spirit of
wine, if we have no other name by which
we may call thee, let us call thee devil?'"
