ing been at the camp of the Delaware
soldiers at Yorktown and is said to
have complimented the appearance and

wonder if Colonel Macalster, =. J.
Babcock and other veterans of the late
war who were present basking in the
sunny smiles of the Senator, thought of
the time he called them "1Iincoln Hire

The EXECUTIVE officers of the Board
OF Health have finished the examina-
ton of the Brandywine from Whining
ton to Smiths bridge, and though their
report of nuisances and impurities will
not probably be D disgusting in its de-
tails as that III ade some four or Fl We years
ago but it will BIZ bad enough to turn
the stomach against the further use of
the Brandywine water. The fact is,
we have become so accustomed to drink
ing impure water that nothing scarcely
moves us any more. We hope the
present movement will result in some.
thing mere than a new report Of the
condition Of the stream. The water
has beeii decided to be impure by a
number Of competent chemists, and the
largely increased mortality of our city
proves the truth Of their analysis.

THE CITY Council last night sat down
hard Oh Councilman Blake's ordinance
for re-districting the City iato new
fire departments. 1t was fatal to his
measure that a number of the business
firms of the city had been induced to
sign IA petition favoring it by mislepre-
sentation. A large majority of the fire
companies were opposed to the measure.
There was time when the voice OF the
firemen of our city would have availed
nothing, but that time is past. The de-
partme ent has been re-organized and re-
formed and more gentlemanly and pa
tr!otic class of citizens would be hard to
lind. 1t is reasonable to suppose that
such people should have a voice in what
them 80 materially and that
voice has been against Mr.. Blake's or
iinance. Reforms move slowly where
there is nothing TO reform.

Velocity OF the Wind.

Owing to the interruption In the contin ui-
ty Of these records, II IL impossible to affirm
that the maximum velocity Of the wind was
recorded. In fact, there are reasons for be-
lieving that the storm reached Its greatest
velocity somewhat before three o'clock. IL
seems quite certain, then, that at times du-
ring the storm the velocity of the wind ex-
ceeded one hundred miles an hour, and es-
pecially must this have been the case during
some Of the most violent blasts, which were
generally Of too short duration TO show their
( ull effect upon the register made. The fact
that the pendulum Of the anemograph was
stopped between two and three O'Clock by
one Of these blasts and that after three
o'clock Its motion wss not interfered with,
would indicate that more violent disturbai,-
ces took place before than AFTER that hour.
A smaller thermometer of Robinson's model
was torn fsom It's fastcnines between two
and three o'clock and so completely demoi-
shed that no record even OF The work al
ready done could be obtained. This is much
TO be regretted, as otherwise meana of ver-
flying the extraordinary velocity registered
BY the anemograph would have existed.
Concerning the latter, ID should be sald that
regarding the thermometer IS a standard, ID
has been found upon examination TO some
what over-estimate the velosity OF very high
winds, aud to underestimate those Of low
speed. AT the Same time Il cannot be posi-
lively state which Of the two Instruments
was In error.--P Popular Science Manfsis. !.

The Age OF the ObeIisk.

DIR. David p. Holton, Corresponding Sec
retary of the American Pathological Society,
read on recent evening in New York, a
paper prepared by Gustavus Seyfrarth upon
the obelisk now in that city. He fixes the
date of the obelisk at about 1866 b. c., and
certain hieroglyphics are translated to signi-
fly "the man who died in the bay of the Red
Sea-" He therefore concludes that the in
scnption records the fate of Pharaoh, before
whose face Moses and Aaron stood so often,
and who was the hero of the tragedy that oc-
CURED when the children of Israel escaped
pursuit by the Egyptian army being over
whelmed In the Red Sea-" He says in con-
clusion: "Is il not happy dispensation that
our city and our country Is at present in pos
session of an obeiisk TO which the present
and future generations may conduct their
children and by it prove to them that the Old
Testament is no longer a myth P" -.

Dress OF Infants.

DIR. Mercy P. Jackson says: - The special
evil Of which / speak is the long skirts, dres-
ses and cloaks which are now In fashion for
babies. i feel the deepest commiseration for
delicate child that has hung upon Its ten
der body flannel skirt yard long, and over
that a cotton skirt equally long, and over chat
dress to cover both, often weighted with
hervy embroidery, and II the child Is carried
out, double cloak, longer than all, SO that
the skirts reach nearly TO the floor Is thy In
fant Is borne on the nurses arm. The lon
ger the clothes the more aristocratic the ba-
by, would seem to be the idea of the mother.
Think of all this weight attached around the
waist OF . child, and hanging over the little
feet, pressing down the toes and even forcing
the feet out of their natural positionl How
much of defcrmity and suffering this fashion
produces none can tell; but that Il Ii great
discomfort to the baby every thinking moth
er must perceive. High necks and long
sleeves are now fashionable for babies; but
how soon they may laid aside for low necks
and short sleeves cannot be foreseen. That
will depend on the enlightenment Of women.
To expose the delicate chest and arms or i
young child In onr cold, changeable climate,
u often 70 bring on pneumonia, and greatly
to lessen the chances Of life. And should
life be spared, there will be sleepless nights
and anxious days for the mother, d well =
great suffering for the child"

A Chinese Bismarck.

Tso-Tsung-Tang, the conquerer of the
Taepngs and of the rebels of Turkestan,
Commander-in-C Chief of all the troops on
both sides of the Great Wall, seems to be a
sort of q Chinese Bismarck, with differences.
So we infer from the account given of an in
terview with him by the Austrian Count
Szechenyi, who, It may be remembered, was
foiled in his attempt to enter Thibet about
the same time as Prejevalsky. Tso he de-
scribes a small, fat, iovial fellow Of sixty
seven years; his features are coarse, but his
small eyes sparkle with malice. He is the
son of poor parents and has risen solely by
his merit. He knows the extent of his au-
thority and brooks no contradiction. This,
in China, Is the secret Of maintaining ones
self In high portion. Friendship, esteem
and confidence are useless and even hurtful
sentiments. Yet Tso has the reputation Of
being honest and upright. He has the COM
mand of large sums of money, but saves
nothing. He lives in the greatest simplicity;
his clothes are old and WON. He employs
his large salary in buying Krupp guns for his
country. But he is cruelty savage, even fe-
rocious. He is married, but hates women; !;
sent his wife home to her parents long ago.
He watches the conduct Of his soldiers with
extreme rigor, and has interdicted their
using opium under the severest penalties
His executioneris always within call. Speak
ing of arms, he declared that those of Ger
man manufacture are the best, English and
American guns being very bad. He showed
a needle gun manufactured at Sou-Tchou
Arsenal which Szechenyi declared was very
satisfactory. An account by another writer
states that in reforming abuses he "drives
like Jehu," and that the people not only fear
but honor him. He Is evidently bent on
stamping out opium.

A Bold Enemy OF Canaries.

Messrs. Cagwin Il Allen have quite stock
Of canary birds, which they suspend In cages
hung from wire. One wire stretches across
the store from the tops Of the shelves and
holds four bird cages, each suspended from
the main wire by another. Yesterday morn
Ing when the CLERKS came 70 the store they
found mass Of feathers on the floor, the ca
ges empty and traces Of blood upon the wire.
A horrible tragedy had been enacted. They
traced the track Of the murderer until they
found the half-devoured bodies Of four birds
upon one Of the shelves. II was quite evil
dent that rat had committed the deed. He
must have crawIed along the wire and then
slid down the smaller wires and dragged the
birds through the cages. There were blood
and feathers sticking to the sides Of the e.
ges where the birds had been dragged ont.
The songsters were worth IS apiece. How i
rat managed to walk wire like tight-rope
performer d : mystery, - the whisking Of
his tail from side to side would seem quite
sufficient to throw him on his balance.
Those who claim to be familiar with the hab-
its Of the rat say that he walks under the
wire. hanging with his claws and winding
his tan about the wire. This Ii the probs-
ble explanation. CQrson Appeal.
