The Original Penny.

The old, old penny in England,
as in other countries, was of silver,
and its appearance throughout the
earliest time of its history would
rather astonish those who know
nothing Of numismatic lore. From
the Saxon times, in which it was the
only silver piece extant, till those OF
Edward l., it was stamped with a
square cross. This enabled the
coin to be readily broken into halves
or quarters, which then served the
purpose of half pence or farthings.
But the latter coin was not much IN
ferior to the value of the present
English penny, inasmuch as the un-
broken piece was valued at one thir-
tieth of a mark. or three pence ster-
ling. At this time five of them seem
to have made a shilling or shilling;
so that the relations between what
are now chief English silver and
bronze coins have entirely altered in
the course of six centuries. King
Edward, who reformed the coinage,
like everything else, was the first to
issue pennies without the indented
cross and to make up for the loss
of the queer-shaped half-pennies and
farthings hitherto in use, supple
mented the silver coinage with cir
cular pieces, bearing the same value
and denomination. He fixed the
standard of the penny, moreover, by
ordering that it should weigh thirty
two grains of well-grown wheat, or,
which was probably a more aceu-
rate test, that twenty pennies should
weigh one ounce.

GO SLOW.

When you pair of bright eyes meet,
That makes your heart an rapture beat;
When one voice seems TO you more sweet
Than any other voice you know
Go slow, my friend, go slow.
For brightest eyes have oft betrayed,
And sweetest voice Of youth and maid
And thereby wrought deal of woe
Go slow, my friend, go slow,
When you're convinced you are poet,
And wishing all the world to know il,
Call on some editor to show it,
Your verses full OF glow and blow,
Go slow, my friend, go slow
For many one has done the same,
And thought to grasp the hand Of fame,
And yet has never seen his name
In print. And why-wastc-baskets know
Go slow, my friend, go slow
When you TO greed for money yield,
And long the mighty power to WELD
That's always found in golden field,
With senseless pomp and pride and show,
Go slow, my friend, go slow
For thousands, tempted by the glare
OF wealth, have fallen in the snare
Set for the thief. And now despair,
Regret and shame have brought them low
Go slow, my friend, go slow,
The good old earth is never wrong;
Each OF her works takes just so long;
Months pass before happy throng
OF Daisies in The meadow grow;
Go slow, my friend, go slow.
And spring gives life 10 summers llowrs
And summers sun and summers sh9wis
Prepare the fruit for aUtumn's bow'rs,
And autumn frost brings winter snow;
Go slow. my friend, go slow,

Advice to the Girls.

When a man chooses the proies-
sion of law he does not expect to be
a musician and journalist also
he knows if he would succeed he
must devote himself to the one
chosen calling. When woman
marries she realizes that in order to
reach lofty nights in wife and moth
erhood she must sacrifice lesser
aims. She must be willing to lay
aside the delightful occupations
which made her girlhood so pleas
ant; she must know that from the
hour when her baby is laid in the
cradle, dressed with loving fore.

the mature man lies down in his

tered, win be at liberty nomore, but

or death to those who have come to

Wait while, girls; think it all

and mother, they are not to be taken
lightly. A husband is not be looked
upon as a sort Of perpetual beau,

tain and improbable adjuncts. I'm

premiership ended. you reach out
of yourself and ask for larger duties,

home with a mild radiance which
would seem but a dim light in a
new one.-Ne,c York Post.

The surest of all natural prophy-
lactics is active exercise in the open
air. Air is a part of our daily food
and by far the most important part.
A man can live on seven meals a
week, and survive the warmest sum-
mer day with seven draughts of
fresh water, but his supply of gas
eous nourishment has to be renewed
at least fourteen thousand times in
the twenty-four hours. Every breath
we draw is draught of fresh oxy-
gen, every emission of breath is an
evacuation of gaseous recrements.
The purity of our blood depends
chiefly on the purity of the air We
breathe, for IN the labratory of the
lungs the atmospheric air is brought
into contact at each respiration with
the fluids of the venous and arterial
systems, which absorb it and circu-
late it through the whole body; in
other words, if a man breathes the
vitiated atmosphere of a factory all
day and of a close bedroom all night,
his life blood is tainted fourteen
thousand times in the course of the
twenty-four hours with foul vapors,
dust, and noxious exhalations. We
need not wonder, then, that ill-ven-
tilated dwellings aggrayate the evils
of so MANY diseases. nor that pure
air should be almost a panacea.
Outdoor life is both a remedy and
a preventive of all known disorders
of the respiratory organs; consump-
ton, in all but the last stage of the
deliquiam, can be conquered by
transferring the battle ground from
the sick-room to the wilderness OF
the next mountain range.

A Runaway Train.

The most hair-raising episode
that ever happened to a New Mexi-
can Mountain railway train fell to
the lot of Conductor Blessingham
Thursday afternoon at three o'clock,
ON the west slope Of Glorietta Sum-
NIT. The train comprised nearly
thirty loads, and as it entered upon
the descent, Jake Brown, the engi-
neer, threw on the water brake, but
found that it was broken andswould
not work. The train gained a mo-
mentum to such frightful extent
that the switch cables and hooks ly-
ing on the pilot base in front were
hurled from their place into the air,
breaking one of the locomotives
guard-rails. Brown called for
brakes, but the train men had al
ready set every one, and realized
that the train was beyond their con-
troll, Seeing that nothing could be
done to stop the mad course the
train was running, Brown jumped
from the cab while going at the rate
of sixty miles On hour and landed
seventy-two feet distant, actual
measurement. Blessingham, who
was on the caboose with Pawnee
Charley and wife as passengers,
fearing that the train was going to
destruction, cut his way-car loose
and stopped it with the brakes,
while the train continued its veloci-
ty down the long grade. The fire.
man stood at his post like q hero,
and while the engine was plunging
down the height at a giddy speed,
he crawled out ON the foot-board
and poked sand through the sand
box, thinking that it might assist
the wheels in getting grip upon
the rails. As the train sped around
Material Curve. which is ''short and
Steep" the velocity was so great that
the locomotive ran on one rail, and
overbalanced so greatly that it came
within an ace of ofloosing its equilib-
rum. The brakemen or deck were
obliged tn lie flat and cling to the
running-boards for safety. For six
miles these badly frightened men
stuck to the ship and faced the hor-
rors of death. Below Cononcito is a
natural basin, with three miles of
level track, and it was on this
stretch that the runaway train was
mastered and stopped. Some of the
cars were laden with iron for the
front, but they were unloaded be-
fore the train stopped by the mate
rial being hurled in all directions.
Just how the train held the rails as
well as it did is a mystery which
the philosophers must solve--we

The Regulations Of the French Pres.

The laws which regulate the press
continue TO be very stringent, though
some notifications of liberal char
acter have been introduced since
the fall of the Empire. Thus all
attacks on the constituted authori-
ties, or on the religion Of the State,
or on either of the religions whose
establishment is recognized BY law,
as we'll as all attacks upon the soY-
ereign or other head Of foreign
State, all publication of false news,
all writings which incite to the
commission of crimes or misde-
imeanors, or incite one class of citi-'
zens to hatred of another class, and
all defamation of individuals, are
punishable by line and imprison-
ment, while tie publication of mere
ly insulting or abusive articles, not
specifying any matter Of fact. to the
detriment Of private individuals,
1. e., simple injure, as distinguished
from difamotion-is punishable by
fine only.
The accused is not permitted TO
Justify a libel by proof of its truth,
except when it refers to some action
of a public officer in the discharge
of his duties as such. And only in
this latter case is the publication of
the proceedings at the trial allowed,
though, of course. the judgment
may be published. This appears to
us a very salutary provision Of law,
which might well be introduced in
America.
The deposit Of security (consist-
ing of an actual payment in CASH
in the hands of the Government was
abolished in October, 1870, but was
re-established by the law Of July 6,
eS71, though the amount thereof is
only about one half of that fixed by
the law of 1852, the sums now re-
quired being, for every periodical
appearing more than three times a
week, if published in the Depart
ment of the Seine, 24,000 francs, and
in any other department 1900
francs, if published in a city having
more than fifty thousand inhabi-
tants, and 6,0O0 francs in other
cases and for all other periodicals
Except non-political publications
appearing not more frequently than
once a week., $1,000 francs in the
Department of the Seine, and the
other departments one half Of the
amounts specified above. The sum
so deposited as security is primarily
applicable to the payment of all
damages and costs awarded against
the proprietor or manager Of the
paper which publishes a ibellous
article, or against the author Of such
article.
The stamp duty upon newspapers,
which existed under the Empire,
was abolished by decree Of Septem-
Der 3, 1870. Every publisher is
still obliged to deposit two copies of
every newspaper or other periodical
issued by him, in the hands of the
public authorities. The law of De
cember 20, 1915, provides that no
administrative authority shall have
the right to prohibit the sale on the
public streets of any particular jour-
nal. But the most important change
recently effected in favor of the
press is that made by the law of
April 10, 1871, removing press Of
fenses from the Jurisdiction of the
Tribuneax Correctionnels, and sub
mitting them to trial by jury before
the courts of assize.

Garfield on Assassination.
HIS ELOQUENT REMARKS on THE MUIR
DER OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN.

The official report in the Congress
sio1aal Record of Saturday, April IA,
1865, relates that Mr.. Garfield, in
the House of Representatives, after
prayer by Chaplain Boynton, moved
to dispense with the reading of the
Journal, and said:
"Mr. Speaker, / desire to move
that this House do now adjourn.
And before the vote upon that mo-
ton is taken, / desire to say . few
words. This day, Mr.. Speaker, will
be sadly memorable so long as this
Nation shall endure, which God
grant may be "till the last syllable
of recorded time," when the volume
of human history shall be sealed up
and delivered to the Omnipotent
Judge. In all future time on the
recurrence of this day, | doubt not
that the citizens of this Republic
will meet in solemn assembly to re-
fleet on the life and character Of
Abraham Lincoln, and the awful
tragic event of April 18th, 1865-an
event unparalleled in the history of
nations, certainly unparalleled in
our own. 1t is eminently proper
that this House should this day
place upon its records 4 memorial
of that event"
After a brief eulogy on the late
President, and a pathetic allusion to
the circumstances of his death, Mr..
Garfield concluded:
1T was no one man who killed
Abraham Lincoln; it was the en-
bodied spirit of treason and slavery,
inspired with fearful and despairing
hate, that struck him down in the
moment of the Nations supremest
joy.-Ah, sir, there are times in the
history of men and Nations where
they stand so near the vale that sep
arates mortals from the immortals,
time from eternity and men from
their God, and they can almost hear
the beatings and feel the pulsation
ofthe heart Of the Infnite.-Through
such time has this Nation passed.
When 10000 brave spirits passed
from the field OF honor through that
thin veil to the presence of God, and
when at last its parting folds admit
ted the martyr President 10 the
company Of dead heroes Of the Re-
public, the Nation-stoed so near the
veil that the whispers OF God were
heard By the. children of men.
Awe-stricken by His voice, the
American people knc in fearful
reverence and made solemn COW
enant with Him and with each other
that this Nation should be saved
from its enemies that 2 It's Tories
should be restored and 0 the ruins
OF slavery and treason tie temples
of freedom and justice should be
built and should survive forever.
1t remains for US, consecrated by
that great event, that under q cove
nant with God, to keep that faith,
to 90 forward in the great work un-
til it shall be completed. Following
the lead Of that great man, aad
obeying the high behests of God, let
us remember that
He has sounded forth trumpet that shall
never call retreat
He is sitting out the hearts Of men before
His Judgment seat.
BE swift, my soul, to answer Him; be jubi-
lant my feet,
For God Is marching on.
At the conclusion of this perora-
ton the House silently adjourned.

Lord Beaconsfeid.

Lord Beaconsfeld had two broth
ers-James, deceased, and Ralph.
He never associated with any of his
kindred, but he appointed James,
in 1852, when he became Chancellor
of the Exchequer, a Commissioner
of Inland Revenue, the salary OF
which is $1,000 a year, ard his
brother Ralph was, at his request,
appointed by Lord Chancellor
Cairns, in 1867, Deputy Clerk of the
House of Lords, the salary of which
is 81, 200. They both, particularly
James, bore a strong likeness to
their remarkable brother.

EvangeIine.

Longfellow said "Evangeline was
suggested to him by a gentleman
with whom he and Hawthorne
were dining, and who urged the
the novelist to write q novel on the
exiled young Arcadian girl who
spent the remainder of her life
searching for her lover. Il caught
the thought at once" the poet said,
'that it would make striking pict-
ure if put in verse, and said 'Haw-
thorne give it to me for a poem, and
promise me you will not write
about it-until | have written the
poem Hawthorne readily assent
ed to my request, and it was agreed
that l should use his friends story
for verse whenever / had the time
and inclination to write. ."-Phila-
