IT is a current opinion over in New Jersey
that the bankrupt city of Elizabeth would not
sell for the amount of its debts. This notion
proves to be somewhat exaggerated. Accord
ing to the latest account the city owes S5,3f1,-

recent meeting of the Northern Indiana Edi-
torial Association, narrated some of the Ga
zette's experience when it discarded the credit
system of subscription. ''There was" he said,
$4,000 due on the books from weekly sub
scribers alone that had been accommodating for
third of century. OF that amount not 3d.
600 cents were collected. We employed man,
furnished him good horse, and sent him off
on collecting tour. In six months the horse
was dead, the saddle and bride pawned for
keep, and the man returned a considerable
balance against the company, We sold the
books for old paper and called those credits
lost"

Thatpoprlar delicacy, Cervelat-wurst,
or brain sausage, has lately been the
occasion Of q prosecution at Dusseldorf.
It was proved thata certain specimen of
this article contained horseflesh, and
the prosecution asked for the pun
ishment of the fabTicator under the
provisions OF the new law aTainst
the adulteration OF food, May,
1879. The defendant made no conceal
ment of tho matter. His sausages, he
holily confessed vere composed of
tVothirds horsehesh and one-iliird of
bacon, with the addition Of the neces-
sary herbs and spices. lie said that he
freely told this to every one who wished
to know what they contained. After
citing en- opinion on behalf OF horsefesh,
he declared that good Cervelat-wurst
could not be prepared from any other
animal. The faroas Gotha and Bruins
wick Cervelat sausages, he said, were
invariably made with horsehesh. The
Italian "Salami," as many have pro-
badly learned in italy, is prepared with
donkey-hesh. The sausages of this
Dusseldorf fabricator are sent to many
OF the best known houses in Germany.
Tho use of horsefesh has increased so
very largely in recent years that one is by
no means certain that at table d'hote
whether he may not bo partaking of it
under some deceptive nomenclature.
1t was asserted at the trial, and was
not contradicted, that the dainty little
Vienna sausages at the Dusseldorf ex-
hibition were made of horsenesh. The
court declared that the charge of adul-
teraion was not proved, and the de-
fendant may now Manufacture horse
sausages without fear of punishment
and with quiet conscience.

How Marbles arc E.ae.

Marbles are named frcm tho Latin
word "maFnor," By which siinilar play
things were known 70 the boys cs Ro,so
1900 years ago. Somo marbles ere
made Of potsel's clay and baked In an
oven Just IS earthenware is baked, but
most Of them are made of a leFd kind
Of stone found in Saxony, Germany.
Marhes arc manufactured there in
great numbers and sent to all parts Of
the world, even TO China, for the use OF
the ChineS children.
The stone is broken up with hammer
into pieces, which are then ground
round in a mill The mill has fxed
slab of stone, with its surface full Of
little grooves or burrows. Above this
fiat block Of oak wood OF the sane size
as the stone is made TO turn round
rapidly, and while turning little streams
of water run in the grooves and keep the
mill from getting too hot. About one
hundred pieces OF the square pieces OF
stone are put in the grooves at once,
and IN few minutes are made round
and polished by tho wooden block.
China and white marbles are also
used to make the round rollers which
have delighted the hearts Of tho boys OF
all nations for hundreds OF years.
Marbles thus made are known to the
boys as 'chinas' or galley" Real
china ones are made of porcelain clay
and baked like chinaware or other pot
terry. Some of them have q peaily
glaze and some are painted in various
colora, which viii not rub oil, because
they are baked in, Just AZ the pictures
are on the plates and other tablewero.
Glass marbles are known rs "agates."
They are made ol 10th clear and col
ored glass. Tire former are made by
taking up lissle melted glass on tho
end Of an iron rcd and making IL round
BY dropping it into q round mold, which
shapes it, or by whirling il around the
head until the glass Is made into a little
ball.
Sometimes tho figure OF dog OF
squirrel or kitten or some other ob.
iect is put on tho end of the rod, and
when it Is dipped Into tho melted glass
the glass Iuns all around it, and when
the marble is done tho animal can be
seen shut up into ii. Colo4d glass
marbles are mado by holding bunch
OF glass rods in the fire until they melt
then the workmen twist them round
into ball ior press them into n mold,
so that when done thomarblo is marked
with bands or ribbons Of color. Real
agates, which aie the nioest Of all mar.
bles, are made in Germany, ont OF the
stone called agate. The workman chip
the pieces of agate nearly round with
hammers and then grind them round !
and smooth ON grindstones.

DRIP, drip, drip,
Tho eager how is still,
And only drops OF water fall
Beneath the unused mill.
AL moldy are the bags Of meal,
And moss is grown upon the wheel,
30 silent and so still.
Drip, drip, drip,
Upon the fruitful fern;
The silent timbers of the wheel
Are powerless to turn,
And where blade Of grass is seen,
The gaping joints it grows between,
Parted, will not return.
Drip, drip, drip,
Ipto the stagnant pool
Where glides the spotted water snake,
Among the crosses cool,
And, silent in his coat OF mail,
All slimy creep the cautious snail
Upon tho window stool.
Drip, drip, drip,
upon tne Oaken uoor,
And broken from its rusty lock,
Hangs, silently, the door,
Save, when gA of wind goes past,
1t groans upon one hinge still fast,
Then silent as before.
Drip, drip, drip,
Upon the rotten deal,
Between tho timbers in the roof
The shadows softly steal;
And from corner of the house
Slyly peeps forth the cunning mouse
That eats the moldy meal.
Drip, drip, drip,
Upon the well-worn stone,
While blueflios al the window buzz,
Mohotonous in tone.
No moro themiler grinds his corn,
For he, good man, is dead and gone,
The mill is let alone.
