THE TOWER OF LONDON.

The Tower of London is the most cele'
brated citadel of England, and the only for.
tress of the British capital. Its history is, to
a great extent, the history Of the kingdom.
Within its walls some of the most noted po-
litical and religious characters have been con-
fined, tortured and beheaded. The tower is
in the eastern extremity of the city, and con.
ssts of towers, batteries, forts, ramparts, bar
racks and store houses. Itis surrounded by
a considerable moat, and covers an area of
twelve or thirteen acres. The oldest part is
what is known as the White Tower, which
was built by William the Conqueror, and
which has not been changed inside, but has
been remodeled externally. Some of the
walls are fourteen feet thick, which made it
practically impregnable in its day. The no.
table places to be seen by the visitor are: The
Traitors Gate, opposite to which is the
White Tower, and through which the prison
ers like Raleigh were taken to their cells !;
the Bloody Tower is also nearly opposite, and
there the sons of Edward w. were murdered
at the instigation of Richard ILL.,; Beau
champ Towers is also seen and remembered
as the place where Anne Boleyn and the un.
fortunate Lady JanVGrey were detained !;
the Bell Tower, where the Governor resides !;
the galleries known as the Horse Armory and
Queen Elizabeth's Armory; and the jewel
room, where the crown jewels, valued at
S12,000,000, are kept. The old baDqueting
hall and council chamber have been made the
store house for arms, and St. Johns Chapel
has been translated into an office for the rec
ords and archives. A moderate sized army
is usually disposed about the various parts of
the tower. The armories have famous collec-
tions of arms of medieval and modern times
The Tower is one of the sights of London,
and all going there may see, on the payment
Of small fee, the different parts of the great
stronghold in the company Of quaintly-at.
tired guide. On the walls of the cells are
yet to be seen inscriptions made by prisoners
confined liked Raleigh, within the dreary
place only to be released by death.

NOWADAYS.

Oh. nv how everything has changed
Since was sweet sixteen,
When all the girls wore homespun frocks
And aprons nice and clean;
With bonnets made of braided straw,
Tied close beneath the chin,
And shawls laid neatly DER the neck
And fastened with pin.
But now days the ladies wear
Such high three storied hats,
With feathers running all around
To cover up the flats;
Then frocks that fall so very low
And trail yard behind,
THEY'RE made the giddy for to catch,
Yet sometimes catch the blind.
And then to think that some young girls
Will almost faint away
If they were left to sit alone
In wagon or in sleigh;
And as for getting pa his meals.
Or helping ma to bake,
Oh that would spoil their lily hands
From baking ''angel cake"
When snow would fall was so pleased,
And how my heart did flutter
AS each beau took his sweetheart out
Sleigh riding in his cutter:
But when the storm was bleak and cold,
The girls and beaux together
Would meet and have good straw ride,
In suite of wind and weather.
But now, indeed, it grieves me much
That am forc'd to mention,
However kind a young mans heart,
Or honest his intention,
He dare not ask girl to ride
But such war is waged,
That if he sees her more than twice,
Why they must be engaged.
Land sakes what are we coming to,
Is what want to know.
How do the girls expect to have
A sensible young beau!
Wiener they get a nice young man
They cut too great dash,
And then the grand result soon comes
A universal crash!

MUSCULAR MEN.

Among tne GreeKS tne SUCCESSFUL aLnleLe WAS
crowned with laurels and loaded down with
wealth and honors. Milo six times won the
palm at the Olympic and Pythian games.
He is said to have run mile with four-year
old OK on his shoulders, and afterwards killed
the animal with one blow of his fist, and ate
the entire carcass in one day So great was
his muscular power that he would bind a
cord around his head and break it by the
swelling and pressure of the veins. An ord-
nary meal for Milo was twenty pounds of
meat, as much bread, and fifteen pints of wine.
The Roman Emperor Maximinius was up
ward of eight feet in height, and like Milo of
Crotono, could squeeze to powder the hardest
stone with his fingers and break the leg of a
horse by kick. His wife's bracelet served
as ring, and his every day repast was sixty
pounds of meat and an amphora of wine.
Topham, an Englishman, born in ITO,
was possessed of astonishing strength. His
armpits, hollow in the case of ordinary men,
we're with him full of muscles and tendons.
He would take bar Of iron, with its two
ends held in his hands, place the middle of
the bar behind his neck, and then bend the
extremities by main force until they met to-
gether, and bend back the iron straight again.
One night, seeing a watchman asleep in his
box, he carried both the man and his shell to
great distance, and put them on the wall of
church yard. Owing to domestic troubles,
he committed suicide in the prime Of life.
Maurice, Count of Saxony, the hero of
Fontenoy, inherited the physical vigor of his
father, and was especially noted for his sur
prising muscular power or "grip" in his hands.
On one occasion, needing a corkscrew, he
twisted long iron nail round into the re-
quired shape with his fingers, and opened a
half dozen bottles of wine with it. Another
time, stopping at blacksmith's shop to have
his horse shod, he picked up number of new
horseshoes and snapped them in two as readily
as if made of glass, much to the disgust OF
the smith.
If history is to be believed, Pharyllus, of
Crotona, could jump a distance Of fty.six
feet. Strut, an English authority on games
and amusements, speaks Of a Yorkshire jump
er named Ireland, whose powers were marvel.
Gus. He was six feet high, and at the age of
eighteen, leaped, without the aid of spring
board, over nine horses side by side. He
cleared cord extended fourteen feet from
the ground with one bound, crushed with his
foot bladder suspended at height of six
teen feet, and on another occasion he lightly
cleared large wagon covered with an avn
ing.
Colonel Ironside, who lived in India, early
in this century, relates that he met in his trav-
els an old white haired man who, with one
leap, sprang over the back of an enormous
elephant, Aanked by six camels of the largest
breed In our own day we are familiar with
many remarkable expositions of strength and
endurance. DR.. Winship, with the aid of
straps, lifted weight of $500 pounds, and
with the little finger of his right hand could
raise his body considerable distance from
the ground.

announcing his bill of fare. As each course
was brought on the General announced it in
the same way, and in rhyme whenever practi-
cable-like this, for instance: "Here's your
lamb and ham, jelly and JAM" After din.
ner the politician entered into conversation
with the general, and asked him during the
course of it why be called his bill of fare out
in that way, instead of having it printed.
"Well," replied the General, "the fact is. it is
for the benefit of the members of the Missis-
sippi State Legislature. A good many of
them come here from time to time, and so
few of them can read / have found it my
easiest way to announce my bill offare as you
have heard me-"

How He "TooK IT Our" OF THEM.-Gen-
eral McMackin, who died recently, was we'll
known all through Mississippi as a hotel
keeper. He was perfect character in his
way, and acquired as much reputation from
his peculiarities as from his well.kept country
hotel. He had a profound contempt for
the Mississippi State Legislature, from the
fact that he had once wanted an office in the
gift of the Legislature, and they had given
it to some one else. A prominent Southern
politician who stopped at General MacMack;
ms hotel short time before his death, said
that he was much surprised on going down
to dinner to hear loud voice from the din.

mock turtle soup!" The gentleman, on en-

General McMackin himself, who was thus

The MOST PROLIFIC Cow on RECoRD.--1

The MOST PROLIFIC Cow on REcoRD.--A
correspondent of the Hartford (Conn.) Times
saws: The history of cow raised on the
farm of the late Erastus Ellsworth, of East
Windsor Hill, is so remarkable that i; is
worthy of record. The COW is not ofany one
breed, but is about three-fourths Durham,
and l hardly know what to call the other
quarter. April 10th, 1877, she gave birth to
twins, one male and one female; March 18th.
1878, she gave birth to triplets, two males
and one, female, making five calves in II
months and days July 9th, 1879, she gave
birth to twins, both males October 7th, 1880,
she gave birth to triplets, two males and one
female, making ten calves in years. 5nonths
and 81 days. The calves have all been of
good size, healthy and handsome, and have
been raised on the farm.

man had been betrothed sixty years before:
The lover had disappeared mysteriously, and
she had kept faithful during that long inter-
