AnalOgieS in Nature.

The cocOanut is in many respects
like the human skull, although it close
ly resembles the skull of the monkey
A sponge may be so held to remind
one Of the unheshed face OF the skele-
ton, and the meat of the English wal
nut is almost the exact representation
of the human brain.
PIums and black cherries resemble
the human eyes; almonds and some
other nuts resemble the different varie-
tees of the human nose, and an open
oyster and its shell are a perfect image
of the human ear.
The shape of almost any mans body
may be found in the various kinds of
mammoth pumpkins. The open hand
may be discerned in the form assumed
by scrub willows and growing celery.
The German turnip and the eggplant
resemble the human heart. There are
other striking resemblances between
human organs and certain vegetable
forms. The forms of many mechanical
contrivances in common use may be
traced back to the patterns furnished
by nature. Thus, the hog suggested
the plow; the butterfly, the ordinary
hinge; the toadstool, the umbrella; the
duck, the ship; the fungous growth on
trees, the bracket Any one desirous
of proving the oneness of the earthly
system will find the resemblance in
nature ali amusing study to say the
least.

President Porter and George Eliot.

In a communication to the Christian
Union, President Noah Porter describes
Miss Marian Evans as he recollects her
in 1858, when he was a fellow-boarder
with her for a time at the house of
John Chapman, in the Strand, London.
She had then published only her trans
lation of Strauss "Life of Christ"
cat this time," he says, "she was 33
years old, with plain but interesting
features, of a little above medium size,
of very quiet and almost timid bear
ing, most noticeable for her singularly
refined voice, her clear thoughts, her
choce yet by no means stilted diction,
and above all for her fervid yet unaf-
fected sensibility. She was free and af-
fable with the family and guests, but
unmistakably wore the air of a person
preoccupied with many engagements,
and living apart in her own works of
elevated thoughts and intense feeling.
The writer remembers once being
greatly moved at seeing her, after hav-
ing come late to the breakfast table
and being left almost alone, give way
to a mood Of abstraction during which
the tears flowed in streams over her
strong yet gentle face. 1t was delight
full to hear her converse, and yet re-
call little or nothing of long CONVEX
sation with her as once we sat opposite
one another at the table, and were left

Garfield is so torn in his own mind over
who is to be placed in his cabinet that it

Garfield is 80 torn in his own mind over
who is to be placed in his cabinet that it
is now certain that nothing definite
as to its entirety will be known till
after the consultation with Mr.. Blaine
Mr.. Blaine intends to have Senator
Allison secretary of the treasury, and his
positive desires and opinions will soon
eliminate that matter from the muddle.
If Illinois gets a cabinet place it will un-
questionably go to Robert Lincoln. The
only doubt about in this case is whether
Illinois is to have cabinet position. The
Blaine people say, too, that Charley Fos-
ter will be in the cabinet, but according to
all reports no cabinet will be made at
Mentor. Gen. Garfield is so overwhelmed
with advice in that place that he will not
presume to act until he has come to Wash
ington. Then his closest friends, headed
by Blaine, will consult with him, and
agree in friendly caucus upon the seven
cabinet advisers. Public men who have
seen Garfield within the past week say no
cabinet will be made at the Mentor farm
house.
The absence of members and senators
from their post Of duty has been so no.
torious this session that Dibrell. of Ten.
nessee, attempted to have measures taken
for its correction. He moved an amend
mcnt to the legislative appropriation bill
providing that no member shall be paid
his monthly salary until he shall have Ger
tilted that he has not be en- absent from the
sittings of the houses except on account
of sickness, and that all absence other wise
than from sickness shall be deducted from
the members monthly pay. This is the
law at present, bnt it is Il dead letter, and
Mr.. DibrelPs amendment looked to its en-
forcemcnt The amendment was attacked
with vigor, and, of course, voted down.
IT is current gossip around the capital
and in general political circles that demo-
cratic objection to the retirement of U lysses
S. Grant from the army, with the rank and
pay which belonged to him when he re-
signed to accept the presidency of the
United States. will be withdrawn to such
an extent as to allow the passage of the
bill before the expiration of the forty
sixth congress. The democrats who vote
for that measure will, however, insist that
the bill shall contain the provision con.
ferring on Grant command in accord
ance with his retired rank in the event of
an emergency. This change of front on
the part of congressional democrats is ac.
counted for by the presumed fact that they
are somewhat afraid of the general in
politics, and wish to shelve him, as they
think, permanently. 1t is expected that
the bill will come up again in the senate,
and that, with the Objectionable active
service emergency clause stricken out, it
will pass by small majority.

THE old duelists in Washington are
discussing the probabilities of a hostile
meeting between Conkling and Butler.
The offensive words are what troubles
them. They are about equally divided
as to which Of the men offered the
greatest insult. Butler spoke of Conk-
ling's "swaggering insolence," but Conk-
ling went one better, and crushed But
ler by referring to him as "a person" !"
According to court etiquette in Wash
ington, senator outranks cabinet Of
ficer, and to refer to a senator without
giving him his official title, is a mortal
and objectionable otfense. Clearly, the
challenge must come from Butler.

A TELEGRAM from Shelbyville, Ind.
says: East of Freeport lived George Will
lard, a farmer of excellent reputation, and
of some little wealth. His family was not
a large one, his oldest child being a son
near IS years of age, but who now bears
on his young brow the awful mark of
Cain. On last Saturday morning Mr..
Willard had some work to do on the road
near his house. After laboring two or
three hours he started to return to the
house. As he passed into the yard he met
his son and told him to 60 and finish the
work. to which command young Willard
replied that he would not do it. Hot
words followed this, both getting very
angry. Finally Mr.. Willard told
his son that unless he did
the work he would shoot him.
starting to go into the house. The Young
fellow at this picked up an axe and dealt
his father blow on the head, telling him
to the ground and striking him twice in
the side after he was down. Mr.. Willard
was carried in and medical aid summoned,
but this evening he was reported dying,
his skull having been crushed and his ribs
badly broken, Since the commission of
the crime young Willard has been showing
marked degree of repentance and has
never left his fathers side. His grief
seems to be so quiet that he is a most era
zy. and he constantly asserts, that if his
father dies he will. too. His friends fear
that he will commit suicide. Mr.. Willard
is man little over forty years of age,
and has always borne fine reputation.
As the affair is purely family quarrel,
there isvery little probability that an ar.
rest will be made

The following card from Judge Noah,
Of the war department, was print
ed on the 18th inst, and has created great
surprise:
To MY FR1ESDs AND THE PUBLIC: In conse-
quence of recent disclosures from friends and
prominent citizens Of Washington affecting the
cards of invitation to the nuptials of my daugh-
ter, at Ascension church, on Wednesday next, the
18th inst, are with her earnest approval, hereby
recalled. The marriage with Mr.. Lewis will not
take place. > .. NOAH.
Mr.. Lewis professed to be a clerk in
the pension office, receiving l,SOO per
year, and owning a house in the upper
part of the city, besides having an in
terest in the business of the avenue Jew
elers, Lewis. Bros, of whom he was rela-
tive. These gentlemen, however, dlsown
and refuse to have anything to 90 with
him. Besides, he was not a clerk in the
pension office, and had no visible. means
OF support. He went to Semken's early
in the week and purchased a diamond
locket, giving a check on Riggs & Co. He
then pawned the locket for $40 and went
| to Baltimore on a drunk. The entire ar
ranpements for the wedding had been
made, but the friends of the young lady
thought that it was better to retract the
step then wait until it was too late.
Mr.. BLAINE will 90 to Mentor next
week. Mr.. Nichols, Gen. Gar6eld's mes
senqer, has arrived here, and has spent
the greater part of the time in Mr..
Blaine's bedroom, giving the latter full re-
ports of the situation at Mentor. Gen.
