MAGAZINES.

THE SUNDAY MAGAZINE.-The num-
Der for September affords pleasant and
edifying reading-not for Sunday only,
but for every day in the week. The
periodical is religious in tone and sen.
timent, but sec~tarianism is strictly
avoided. The leading article is entitled
"American Benefactors," by James
Laurence Bowdoin, LII. B. 1t has
thirteen illustrations, with portraits of
William b. Astor, III. ii. Warner, Prof.
Lewis Swift, Daniel Drew, etc., etc.
"The Wallachians," with ten illustra-
tons; and "The Christian Church at
Washington, ID. c." are particularly
noteworthy articles. Mrs. Robert
O'Reilly concludes her highly interest
ing serial, "Out of the World;" there
are short stories and sketches by M. ID.
Dennison and other popular writers,
and some admirable essays by w. G.
Proctor, Marcus Dods, D.. ID. Rev. DR..
| Deems, etc., etc. The poems are of
more than ordinary merit. The miscel-
lany is abundant. Frank Leslie's Pub.
fishing House, So, 55 aud 81 Park Place,
New York.
THE INTERNATIONAL REvEw.-The
lntDfUallOha icNicW ioi OCptSuioci
has eight articles of interest and value
in the sphere of discussion to which
they pertain. Mr.. Alexander Bliss
writes upon 'Nituralii D ion," a theme
rapidly assuming proportions of vital
interest. Mr.. VIM. j. Armstrong con-
tributes a very readable sketch of
"Spain of To-day" which gives a good
idea of the political progress of tho land
since Queen Isabella. abdicated the
throne in 1868. Mr.. John Goldman
writes of ''Mormonism." "The Diff
culties of Prison Reform" are treated
by Mr.. A. s. Meyrick, who has made
the subject a special study for several
years. Mr.. Henry G. Adams discusses
the "Payment of Public Debts" and
concludes that future Issues of bonds
should be so drawn that the govern
mept will have full control over them,
and a sufficient amount BIO each year
redeemable to consume the treasury
surplus devoted TO debt-paymept. "The
Endowment OF Colleges" by Rev.
Charles II. Thwing, gives some very in=
teresting facts relative TO the value of
college property and productive funds,
income, scholarships, endowmeDts,
etc. "Baron Bettino Ricasoli," the
Italian statesman, and one of Victor
EmauuePs stanche t supporters, is
made the subject Of a critical and bio
graphical sketch by Mr.. WIN. Chauncy
Lanedon. The number closes with tho
first installment of a series Of studies Of
"Victor Hugo" by Augusta Langel.

AFacetIOus Chinaman.

Even an insane Chinaman was not
averse to playing a practical joke,
Confined in the San Francisco jail as
insane is a Mongolian, Gee Fee by
name. Into his muddled brain en-.
tered the idea that he would give his
jailers a scare. Accordingly, he
stripped himself, and taking a position
under the air holes in the cell, he
passed his queue through the holes
and twisted it around his neck. In
due time the jailer arrived, and in the
dim light saw the naked Chinaman,
apparently hanging dead. He raised
tho alarm, and an instantaneous rush
was made by the scared officials,
armed with knives to cut dead man
down, but as soon as they opened the
door Gee Fee released himself, and,
cutting a caper and laughing at them,
said: Me alice same Mclean man;
me committe suicide" The nerves Of
the jailers not being accustomed to
such strains, it was thought best to
ship the facetious Celestial to Napa,
and he was at once started thither.

vivid DescriptIon.

NEW York, September 2l.-The
Evening Posts Long Branch special
says: The President is laid out in
the suit Of clothes which he wore on
Inauguration day. His left hand is
laid across his breast after the manner
he had in life. This was done in or.
der to make his resemblance as near
to life as possible. No persons will
be allowed to enter the death cham
Der, which has been put in the same
order as it was when the President
was brought to Elberon. The body
is so greatly shrunken that artificial
means had to be resorted to 10 give
the clothes the appearance of fitting.
In addition to the natural shrinkage
from his illness, the operation con-
nected with the autopsy has left the
body in an even more emaciated state
A plaster cast was taken of his face
yesterday, as we'll as of his right hand
In taking the cast of the hand it was
somewhat discolored so that this hand
will not be seen. The effect of
the oil used upon the face prior to
taking the cast disfgured the features
somewhat, and slightly altered the
color ofthe face, 80 that the appear
ance is very much less natural even
than it was just after death. The
President had massive head, and
the large bones show very prominently.
His cheeks are fallen in. The beard
has been so arranged about the parotid
| gland as to conceal that scar, and such
arrangements have been made about
the pillow as still further conceal the
swelling which sapped away his life.
The undertaken says that, in lis opin.
ion, it will not be safe to expose the
body after it leaves here. The effects
of the fluids used in embalming are
such as to have already hardened the
features. A number of journalists
who have been 50 closely watching
the Presidents case all these weary
weeks, were given an opportunity fol
the first view Of the body. The
sentries stood at either side of The
entrance. The coffin lay in the hall
way of the lower floor with a soldiei
at the head and foot of it. The cofiI
was black with silver hands, blacl
rods ran along the sides and upon th,
, top was a silver plate with the follow
, ing inscription: James Abram Gar

MORE than two months after this
date last year the Agricultural Bureau
at Washington City published reports
regarding the supposed condition Of
the cotton crop at that time, and the
deduction from its statements made
the probable yield of last year about
100000 bales less than were actually
marketed. The Cotton Exchange re-
ports at the same time fig
ured the crop out at about
a million and quarter under the
actual result. This is alluded to
merely to show the unreliability of
estimates made by even those who are
supposed to have the best opportunity
for giving accurate information upon
which to base calculations. At
this early period the wisest cannot
count up the crop any better than less
knowing ones. Those who estimate
the probable yield at 100000
bales, doubtless feel that they
are as much entitled to respect as
Others who count on FIVE and three
quarter millions. The last issue Of
Cotton" printed at New York, Sep
tomber II, makes the following peril
nent comment on the latest Bureau
reports, which shows up some of the
looseness Of its methods: "The re-
port Of the Agricultural Bureau
showing a worse condition by 10 PEI
cent than last year, stayed the declin'

Even the features we're no
longer there. There was an ex-
preston about the lower lip which
those who knew him best would rec
ognize. The cheeks were gone. The
brow had lost the massive appearance
which characterized it in life. The
involuntary whispered remark Of all
as they gazed upon the loved form
with shuddcr was, II never should
have recognized him. How he must
have suffered" The shrunken form
told how much it was most marvellous
that he lived so long. AS the crowd
slowly entered and left the hall the
bell of the little chapel in the distance
was tolled. Its tones could be only
family heard above the roar Of the

General Mac eagh arrived at Franck-

at the request of Mrs. Garfield. There
were present besides the family and
attendants, the members Of the Cabi-

friends, numbering in all not more
than fifty. When the moment for the
services was announced the windows
and doors were closed and the mos
solemn silence prevailed.
The following passages Of scripture
were read. Blessed arc the dead who
die in the Lord" "Yea, saith the
spirit, that they may rest from theil
labors, and their works do follow
them" 1--WE know" said the pastor
"that if our earthly house of this tab
