The Shopping Bills OF Wives.

American shopkeepers and American
shoppers alike should be interested in
the case of the large silk-goods firm of
Debenham e. Feebody in England
against Mr.. Mellon for the recovery Of
the cost Of dresses furnished to his wife
whom he had forbidden to incur bills.
The case went from court to court up to
the House of Lords, where it was finally
decided by that august tribunal in favor
Of Mr.. Mellon. Tho Lords expressly
ruled that "Where husband makes
hi, wife an allowance, and expressly for
bids her to run up accounts in his name,
he cannot be held liable for any goods
she may obtain by drawing upon his
credit and, indeed, that, unless the
seller can show that special authority
has been conferred by the husband on
the wife, the seller cannot otrecover judg-
ment." In this case it was admitted
that the goods charged for Were Of a
kind suitable to Mrs. Melons rank and
condition of life, but the presumption
usually created by such an admission i'll
favor of the seller was held to be over
ruled by an absolute conjugal prohibi-
ton even where the seller was not ap-
priscd of the prohibition. 1t was init.
mated during the argument that shop
keepers, before giving wife credit,
might readily protect themselves by
making Inquiries Of the husband, and
the court held that due care and caution
could not he considered to have been
exercised where this was not done.

The ROtlIschiId Family.

The Paris branch of this famous family
is quito large. The dowager Baroness
Rothschild, who lives in the family man
sion in the Rue Lafitte, had five children.
Baron Alphonsc, who is at this time the
head of the family; Baron Solomon, who
died long time ago; Baron Gustave.
Baron Edmond, and the Baroness Nath-
aniel Rothschild. The venerable dowa-
ger is yeritable fountain of charity.
She gives away hundreds of thousands OF
francs every year. In summer she lives
in splendid county house at Boulogne,
whero apartments for each one of her
Sons and daughters are kept constantly
il order. Baron and Baroness Alphonss
Rothschild live in the old mansion i'll the
Rue Saint Florentin, where Talleyrand
once resided. They arc gay and ex-
trcmely fond of society, and are seen
everywhere in the monde; the Baroness
is one Of the most accomplished equest-
riennes who frequent the Bois de Boul-
ogne. Her husband is an enthusiastic
patron of the turf. He has stables at
Meautrif and at Chantilly, and lavishes
millions on them. Solomon Rothschlld
was delicate minded man, fond of con-
yersation, books, pictures and society.
His widow has daughter who will it is
said, be the richest heiress in the Paris
family. Baron Gustave is the only one
who has married outside the family. One
Of the sons OF the late Nathaniel Roths-
child has Just purchased the splendid
mansion of Count Tolstoi, in the Avenue
de Friedland and another, named Ar
thur, spends his life in collecting books.
1t is said that no one else in France ex-
cept the Duke d'Aumale possesses such
estimable treasures Of rare editions and
luxurious binding as this young Roths-
child. One of the latest additions TO tho
delegates in Paris Of the phenomenally
rich family is Baron Adolphe Rothschild,
of Naples, who has closed out his busi.
ness. and retired with the serenity Of
conscience promoted by the knowledge
Of the possession OF fortune Of one hum
dred and eighty millions Of francs. He
may be seen now and then in the Bois,
lolling negligently in the blue carriage
which is one Of the peculiarities Of the
house. He is great collector, and viii
spend hundreds Of thousands Of francs
upon any trihe which he happens to con-
slider that he must have. There is bus
one Catholic in the family, and that u
the young Duchess Of Grammont. who.
it will be remembered, was the daughter
of Baron Rothschild, Of Frsnkforton-t n-ths
Main, one Of the richest member o. tns

Mucuulay's Memory.

Ben ,Jonson won from his admiring
coptcmporaries the cpithet Of ''rare'--
chiefly. if | remember Alright, from his
powers OF memory. Bnt Ben's powers
were small compared with those OF Ma
caulay, who recited the greater part Of
tbe Lay Of the Last Minstrel after read
ing it for the first time. He used to say,
and he was by no means boastful man,
that if by any chance, all the existing
copies OF Milton were to be destroyed,
he thought he could replace the first six
books of Paradise Lost from memory.
"He seemed" said his friend Milman,
"to have read everything; and to remem-
Der all that he had read" have seen a
letter of the late Sir William Stirling
Maxwell to a friend, entreating him to
ask "Mr. Macaulay, who knows every
thing" for some piece of information.
Macaulay," said Sydney Smith, " can
you recite the list Of Popes?'
"No,' confessed Macaulay, II get
confused with the Johns and Gregories.
"Well," said Hallam, who was pres
ent, "can you manage the Archbishops
of Canterbury -.
"The Archbishops of Canterbury
was the disdainfll reply, "any fool can
recite his Archbishops Of Canterbury
backwards"
And he began, from Howley back to
Pole, when his hearers declared them
selves satisfied.

0ll-Tlme EpizOotics.

Thanks to the general use OF steam in
travelling, it is comforting TO reflect that
in spite OF the very great annoyance and
inconvenience caused by the horse dis
eases in recent years, particularly by the
epizootio which prevailed Ill the yenr
1879, the Inconvenience to which peo-
pie are subjected nowadays in the lack
Of horses are really much less grave than
those which our ancestors had to con-
tend with, in similar circumstances. For
our iorefathers, the prevalence of Sc
we're epizootic meant the cessation Of all
travelling and transportation, whether
for long or for short distances; except
ing, OF course, such service as may be
done by oxen and by men on foot. Some
idea OF the gravity OF the situation is
suggested by the following extracts from
an old Birmingham newspaper: On
February 4, 1860, notice was published
that "the horscs belonging TO the Biz
mingham stage coach are so much nj
fected by the present cistemper that pre-
walls among them, that its lournies are
obliged TO he discontinued until their
recovery" And III the week following
another notice appears under that Of
February II, 1860, 1.-The horses belong
ing to the Birmingham stage coach are
still SO bad that it would be dangerous to
attempt their going with tho coach this
week; but on Monday next, the 18th
Mr.. Peyton proposes that the coach shall
set out to go from hence as usual (; after
which he hopes it will meet with no
other interruption.

ENGLISH KISSES.
Te,tinoniaIs TO the Swcctness Of Anglican
OscuIatiOn.

The women OF England (says Polydore
Virgil, in tho PariSian, not only salute
their relations with kiss, but all per-
sons promiscuously; and, this ceremony
they repeat, gently touching them with
the lips, not only with grace, but without
the least immodesty Such, however, as
are OF the blood-royal do not kiss their
interiors, but offer the back Of the hand,
as men do by way OF saluting each other.
Erasmus writes i'll raptures to one OF his
friends on this subject. "Did you but
know, my Faustus," says he, "the
pleasures which England affords, you
would fly here on winged feet, and, if
vour gout would not allow you, you
would wish yourself u Dndalus. Tomen-
ton to you one among many things, here
are nymphs OF the loveliest looks, good
humored, easy of access, and whom you
would prefer even to your favoritc muses..
Here also prevails custom never enough
to be commended, that wherever you
come everyone receives you with a kiss,
aud when you take your leave everyone
gives you kiss; when you return, kisses
again meet you. If anyone leaves you
they leave you with kiss; if you meet
anyone the first salutation is kiss; in
short, wherever You 60 kisses everywhere
about; which, my Faustus, did you once
taste how very sweet and how very
fragrant they are, you would not, like
SoIou, wish for ten years exile in Eng
land, but would desire there to spend the
whole OF your life" Antonio Perez,
Secretary to the Embassay from Philip
ii. of Spain writes thus to the Earl Of
Essex: II have this day, according to
the custom of your country, kissed, at an
entertainment, seven females, all OF them
accomplished in mind and beautiful in
person" DIR. Pierius Winscmius, his.
tOiiographer TO their Mightincsses the
States Of Frie2land, in his Gronijch Udn
Fricsldadi, printed in 1862, informs us
that the pleasant custom was utterly I'M
practiced and unknown in England gust

Brief and Comprehensive.

Years ago, when the subject was
broached of digging the canal that con
meets Portland, Me-, with Lake SebNGo,
thoro was, of course much opposition on
the part of that considerable class found
ready on all occasions to bitterly oppose
internal improvements Of every kind that
can appeal to the pockets of taxpayers.
In one OF the towns interested Ill that
canal meeting of the legal yJtcrS was
called to see ii the town would pledge its
credit il necessary; or would recognize
by vote the necessity Of the work.
The meeting was opened, and the op-
ponents were out in iull force; and they
had engaged a ponunous old deacon,
who never paid tax that he could avoid
paving, toarguc their case. They thought
nc could do it. He could worry tho
other side down, and wear them out, any
way.
The moderator read tho warrant, and
stated the object of the meeting; and, III
Il few very choice. clear, and pleasantly
spoken words, he stated the facts Ill the
case, aud made known what 1t wns
hoped, by the liberal and progressive
element, the town wuuId do.
And then the peppcry old deacon
sprang to his feet, and opened his
magazine Of general abuse and scurrlllty.
He talked an hour aud half--a tempest
Of ugly, false and insinrating stuff, which
disgustedeven some Of his Ownsrpportcrs.
He closed with a grand pcroration on
the power and majesty Of God, and the
wickedness of interfering with the plans
Of the Almighty Architect Of tho
Universe.
"AIr. Moderator, he said, with n grand
spread of his arms, IF there had been
intended water communication between
Harrison and Portland--cutting through
Cumberland County like rivcr-thc
Almighty would have put it thar! Where
the Supreme Architect wants water to
flow He'll make it flow; and He won't
see puny, insignificant man interfere with
His divine plans, Feller citizens Mind
what I tell you!"
And Deacon Skinhint sat down. And,
on the instant. up rose Squire Sam Lit
tlefield, with his pleasant Jolly face all
aglow, and said he:
"NIr. Moderator, we read in the Good
Book that in a certain place there was
lack of water; and Abrahana diggcd q
,ccU there, and called the place Beer
Sheba. Sir, l move the previous ques
ton"
Tho thing took wonderfully. That
simple sentence-"and Abraham digget
well there!--spoken in Lttlcfeld
quiet, quaint, and yet significant way
brought down the house. Tho motioI
for the "previous question" was carried
then the main question was put: Shoult
the credit Of the town be given to the
great improyement?-and it was carried
by an overwhelming majority. And ye
it was said, by those who ought to know
that, had some friend of the measure
followed old Skinhint i'll ri exhaustive
speech, the chances would havo beer
decidedly the other way.-New YorI
Ledger.

No New Jokes,

There is absolutely nothing new in
jokes. They never die. The Jokes that
are familiar to us are those which our
ancestors enjoyed. They are found in
the most ancient literature that remains,
and in hieroGlyphics of the ruined monu,
ments OF dead empires. Their unchanged
existence through these ages does not al
low that these, like the earth and man,
may have been created by O aprocess oi
development: they must have been
created absolutely. At some stage OF
the work Of creation the jokes were
launched into being, and they have con-
hn'Ied TO revolve by their own gravity,
the same as the planets. None Of them
can be annihilated any more than matter,
norcan another he added. Noperson whc
