DIDN'T KNOW"

An amusing incident occurred at
church in New Castle, Del, not Ion G
ago, wherein a sewing machine can
vasser came to grief.
A policeman yas passing the
church, as gentleman came out.
The man jokingly accosted the police
man, saying that he was wanted
understanding that the Dominic
would be glad TO have him turn
from the errors of his ways, and
enjoy a peace that passeth all un-
derstanding.
The over-zealous policeman, think
ing there was some trouble in the
church. went IT. The sexton seeing
a policemen enter, was anxious to
give him good scat, SO waved him
into pew which had one occupant
our sewing machine friend. The
policeman supposed that he was the
man they wanted arrested, so tapped
the canvasser on the shoulder, aud
told him that he was wanted. The
man edged away, as though to resist
wherenpon the policeman collared
him, the canvasser and .jerked him
out of the pew. Some Of the con-
gregation, thinking the man had been
doing something wrong, helped the
policeman to fire him out. Arriving
at the lookup, the policeman saw the
man who told him "he was wanted
inside" and asked what the charge
was. The man "didn't know" The
sexton was applied to, and he "didn't
know" The prisoner was asked
what it was all about, and he "didn't
know" Finally the policeman was
asked why hesarrested the man, and
he "didn't, know" The policeman
then arrested the man who told him
that he was "wanted inside," and at
the police court he was fined five
dollars and costs.
The man who was the innocent
cause Of all the trouble, says che
will never try to convert a policeman
again." And the policeman says

THE WINTHROP 0RATIDN.

The Grafton delivered by Hon.
Robert G. Winthrop, at the York
town celebration, has not, SO far as
we have observed, been published
in any of the journals of the country.
Even the telegraph failed to do more
than allude to it, which was dis
appointment to many, as Mr.. Win
throp is kaown to be ripe scholar
and polished speaker. The Boston
Journal assigns as a reason why it
did not publish the speech, that it
would occupy eight of its lengthy
columns-more room than it could
spare for such purpose-and that
to attempt to give portions Of it
would be inexcusable mutilation.
This will account for the absence
even of extracts from the speech, in
other papers. It will however, be
published in pamphlet form, for pro-
misouous distribution.

MATERIALIzED PENSIONERS.

We are now paying more for pensions
than it took to maintain the Federal
Government previous to the war. The
pension list, in defiance of all mathe
NAUTICAL laws, increases as we go along.
We are paying rGore for pensions now
than at the close of the war, though
many veterans must have passed away
in the sixteen years which have elapsed
Colonel Dudley, Who has just been
confirmed Commissioner of the Pen
ion Office, says that the enormous sum
of$7O, 100000 will pc required this year
for pension-that is, $40, 900, 900 more
than the estimate. Carl Schurz, the
ex-Secretary of the interior, says that
the frauns by which the pension list
has been SO enormously distended can
not be prevented SO long as the present
system is kept up The pension is
granted on er payte statements. Only
a little perjury is necessary for the ma
terialization of Union veteran entitled
to recognition by grateful country in.
the shape of pension. There may be
pensioners in buckram, but they can
be made very costly to the nation.

poleon was paying before he undertook
the war against Prussia, was not myre
expensive than the imaginary pension

One Of the festivities arranged for
the entertainment of the French
troops moving to and from Virginia
in 1871 was dance at Alexandria,
thus described several years after
ward by the translator of ''Chastelnx'
travels in a letter to his English
publishers: "On their arrival at these
quarters the whole country came to
see them; it was general scene of
gayety and good humor. When
they encamped at Alexandria, on the
ground formerly occupied by Brad
docks troops, the most elegant and
handsome young ladies OF the neigh
bo,hood danced with the officers on
the turf in the middle of the camp
to the sound of military music, and
"a circumstance which will appear
singular to European ideas) the circle
outside was greater part composed
of soldiers, who, from the heat of the
weather, had disengaged themselves
from the greater part of their clothes.
Many of the ladies were OF highly
polished manners"

VIVA! is MYTHOLOGY?

On the one Eand, philology has
shown that a myth is an attempt to
explain some natural phenomenon by
endowing with human feelings and
capacities the senseless factors in the
phenomenon, as when the ancient
Hindoo explained a thunder storm as
the shifting of Virtra by the unerring
shafts of Indra. On the other hand,
a brief survey of barbara supersti-
tions has shown how uncultnred man
by the best use he could make of his
rude common sense, has invariably
come to regard all objects as endowed
with souls, and all nature as. peopled
with supra-human entities shaped
after the general pattern of humanit Y
Thus is suggested natural mode of
genesis tor the pcrsoniication of
which mythology is made up. As
the Moslem camel driver regards the
deadly simeon as a malignant demon
so we need not, wonder that the
Greeks in pre- historic times should
have personified the wind as Hermes,
or the sun rs ain unerring archer, or
an unwearying traveller, or an irwin
cible hero. When we know that
some people believe that pots and
kettles have souls and live hereafter,
there is not much difficu 'ty in under
standing how other people may have
defined tho blue sky as the sire Of
gods and men. We see, moreover,
that these personify;ng stories are
not parallels or allegories, but sober
explanations of natural phenomena.
Where we have recourse to some
elaborate scientific theorem, the an
cient was content with telling a
myth. 1t is only after ages Of phil
osophizing that it begins to seem
plausible to regard the clouds as
masses OF .watery vapor suspended
in the atmosphere, or the moon great
planetary body covered with extinct
volcanoes. In primeval times it was
much simpler TO call the cloud rock,
or huge bird, or Centaur, and 10
burn incense TO tho moon as the
chaste goddess Artemis of the silver
bow. Thus the study of mythology
when pursued on the wide scale indi-
Gated in the present paper, throws
light of no uncertain character on
the thoughts and mental habits of
primitive men, as we'll as on countless
superstitious beliefs and customs
which have survived in relatively
high stages of culture. And perhaps
there is no better evidence of the
profoundly philosophic character of
contemporary scholarship than the
pains which it is taking to investigate
methodically in legends and savings
which formerly were either thought
unworth of ssserious study, or were
treated as subjects for idle and arbi-
trary speculation.-July Atlantic.
