A Famala Misar.

Paris Correspondence of New York Evening
Post.
The death of the Princess dc la Mos
kowa calls to mind the fact That her
granddaughter, Madama Friedman,
who went to Jail a while ago under the
accusation of forging the old lady's
name on acceptances. would never have
got out SO long rs her ancient relative
lived. 1t is no stretch OF the fancy to
say that the Princess was one of tho
most miserly persons aver known. She
died in the lower rooms of the superb
mansion which was presented to her
father. Jaques Lafitte, in tho last gen
Grafton by a national subscription, and
she rented oil tho other parts Of the
house. She dressed w~retchedly, and
her main amusement consisted in play
ing one-cent bazique. with her own SER
wants. She rarely went out, and when
sire did appear in the street it was in
tho dresses of twenty years ago. She
left no will, and it is supposed the
Duchess de Persigny inherits all her
vast property and will hasten to let
Madame Friedman out of prison by
paying the creditors and getting them
to withdraw their complaint.

Compressed Air Experiments.

' uhlhDtin Jbufuus
A few months ago wa gave a brief
account OF experiments made at Phila-
aelphia with locomotives driven by
compress sed air. Similar experiments
have boon tried on tramways in the
n~eighborhood of Paris; but in neither
nase was the desired success achieved.
The question, however, was not likely
10 be given up; for the advantage Of
compressed air over steam Is great
fsom the economical as vol Us tho
practical point Of view. Colonel Beau
mont. Of the Royal arsenal. Woolwich.
has for some time worked thereat. and
trials OF his air-engins have been made
with satisfactory results. II weighs ten
tons. has o reservoir In which y hun
dred cubic feet Of air can be compressed
to one thousand pounds on the square
inch; and thus charged 1t travelled from
the arsenal to hartford and back, about
thirty miles, in sixty-three minutes.
The machinery and the wheels work in
comparative silence; there is nome of
that noisy hiss and roar which accom-
panies the use Of steam.
Colonel Beaumont has overcome some
Of the difficulties which beset former
inventors, by placing three cylinders Of
graduated size on each side of his en-
CINE. and by applying warmth to coun-
teract tho cold produced In the expan-
sion Of compressed air. At present it
will draw q load of sixteen tons, and is
to be employed in the work Of the ar
senal; and there is rcason to believe
that similar machinery Is TO be tried for
propelling the torpedo-boats. With a
larger engine heavier loads could DO
drawn; underground railways would
not then DO made sitting by the sui
phurious smoke from steam locomo-
tives. and horses would no longer be
required on tramways.
1t Is known that attempts have been
made to propel vessels on rivers by
ejecting . horizontal column Of water
from the stern. This column, by strik-
ing against the surrounding water. sup

not sufficient. Mr.. Heathorn claims to

The following statement of william
j.. Coughlin, of Somerville, Mass, Is SO
remarkable that we beg to ask for 1t
the attention of our readers. He says:
I'm the fall of 1876 i was taken with
a violent bleeding of the lungs, followed
by a severe cough. i soon began to
lose my appetite and flesh. l was 80
weak at one time that l could not leave
my bed. In the summer Of 1877 l was
admitted to the city hospital. While
there the doctors said 1 had a hole in
my left lung as big as a half dollar. l
expended over a hundred dollars in
doctors and medicines. l was so far
gone at one time a report went around
that l was dead. / gave up hope, but
a friend told me of DIR. 1Wm. Halls
Balsam for the Lungs. l laughed at
my friends, thinking that my case was
incurable, but l got a bottle to satisfy
them, when to my surprise and gratifi-
cation, l commenced to feel better.
My hope, once dead, began TO revive,
and to-day l feel in better spirits than
/ have the past three years.
"I write this hoping you will publish
it, so that every n afflicted with Dis
eased Lungs will be induced to take
DIR. VIM. Halls Balsam for the Lungs,
and be convinced that Consumption
can be cured. l have taken two bot
ties, and can positively say that it has
done more good than all the other
medicines l have taken since my sick
ness. My cough has almost entirely
disappeared, and l shall Don be able to
go to work" Sold by druggists.

In n little compartment of the ostrich

our visit. that quaintest and most I'M
canny of birds, the apteryx or XVII
kiwi. which was long thought by nat
u~ralists TO be u mythical creature. 1t

even .hen, on this occasion, he had per-
ceived our approach and taken up his
usual place of conccalment among the
straw. 1t is n round little nondescript
with a long. curved beak, no tail, the
mcrest rudimcnts of wings, which are
not visible through the plumagc. and

whereabouts Of a worm. 1t is said to en-
lice them TO the surface by stamping on

A Fearless Snake Catcher.

Sig. D'Albertis. a recent explorer in
New Guinea, is a remarkably bold
seeker after snakes. In an account of
his travels he says that at Yule Island
the natives had found q large snake
under a tree, and all ran away from 1t,
crying out. Eat last l went to the ma
tivcs," he continues, .'and tried to as
certain the cause of their conduct, and
they made me understand why they had
fed. l then returned to see the snake
myself, which in fact / did, although
two-thirds were hidden in o hole in the
earth. His size was such that he could
not be poisonous, and / at once grasped
him by the tail. While dragging him
out of his lair with my two hands / was
prepared to flatten his neck close to his
head with ono foot the moment he
emerged, SO that he should not have
Tho power of turning or moving. Ny
plan succeeded perfectly, and while tho
snakes head was imprisoned under my
foot l grasped his body with my hands,
md. rs though | had vanished n terrible
monster, turned toward the natives
with nm air Of triumph. They, struck
with terror, had looked on the scene from
I safe distance. / must confess that tho
snake offered little resistance, although
1t writhed and twisted itself around my
arm, squeezing it so tightly as to stop
The circulation, and made my hand
black. / remained, however. in posses
zion of his neck, and soon secured It
firmly to a long thick stick l had
brought with me, l then gave the rep
lille 10 my men to carry home" This
serpent was thirteen feet long. 1t was
kept alive and became quite tame, and
when the natives saw D'Albertis kiss its
head and let it coil around his legs they
howled with amazement and admira-
ton. Six weeks after tho capture he
writes: MY snake continues to do well;
It has twice cast its skin, is well behaved
and tame, and does not attempt to es-
cape, even when l put it in the sun out
side the house; and when / go to bring
Il in it comes to me of its own accord.
It never attempts to bite, even when I
caress or tease it. While / am working
I often hold 1t On my knees, where It
remains for hours; sometimes 1t raises
It's head, and ticks my face with its
forked tongue, 1t is a true friend and
companion to me. When the natives
bother me 1t is useful in putting them
to flight, for they are much afraid Of 1t;
it is quite sufficient for me to let my
snake loose to mako them fly at full
speed" He kept this serpent for near-
iy six months, and latterly another Of
The same species with 1t, till at last
both escaped, and he mourned their
loss as dear friends, adding, "for I
loved them and they loved me. and We
had passed q long time together"

Guilty in the futGre. We viii indus
triously prepare the ease, 50 when your
honor returns in September, the matter
will be before the grand jury in due
form.
District Attorney Corkhil set forth
in his statement to the grand jury that
he had already more work before it
than he could finish; that there were
alleged criminals in jail awaiting action
on their eases, and that Brady's case
was not known to count officially in
any way, and that 1t was as before i'm
possible to act on it.
Jeremiah Wilson, Brady's counsel,
pleaded that this was not IN ordinary
case. Brady, who stood as high as any
man in the United States, was removed
a few months ago from a position for
the publicly avowed reason that he has
been guilty of q gross violation of off,
cial duty whereby the government has
been defrauded Of large amounts Of
money. The case has been very con-
spicuous, made 70 by the postofice
department, and Brady has been the
great sufferer. He closed with an ele-
CANT appeal for his client.
Counsel Cook said; II Gen. Brady is
acquitted no one win rejoice more than
1. Indeed, Ipay go further, If any
should rejoice more than l, it would be
the president Of the United States, the
attorney general and the postmaster
general. They desire to vindicate, by
the regular administration Of justice,
the United States, and to protect its
interest and maintain and perpetuate it
in the highest and most exalted purity.
They do not desire the accusation of
any one; so earnestly do they desire it
that they do not even wish their pres
entation to the grand jury until all the
facts are impartially presented.
The court said 1t would be wrong to
instruct the grand jury in regard to
Gen. Brady.
