Tea Drinking.

No article on tea could omit mention of
Dr. johnson and his great partiality for
that beverage. In his review of Hanways
"Tea and it's Perniciops Consequences,
he proclaims himself as "a hardened and
shameless tea drinker, who has for many
years diluted his meals with only the in
fusion of this fascinating plant; whose ket-
tie has scarcely time to cool; who, with tea
amuses the evening, with tea solaces the
midnights, and with tea welcomes the
morning..
"Bozzy" says that he supposes no one
ever enjoyed with more relish the fragrant
leaf than johnson. The quantities he
drank of it at all hours we're SO great that
his nerves must have been uncommonly
strong not to have been relaxed by such an
Incorporate use OF II.
II is related of him, but not by Boswell,
that while on his Scotch tour the Dowager
Lady Macleod, having repeatedly helped
him until she had poured out sixteen cups,
then asked him if small basin would not
be more agreeable and save him trouble: II
wonder madame" he answered, Roughly,
whv all the ladies should ask me such ques-
tions. It is to save themselves trouble,
madame, and not me-"
On another occasion he said: What q
delightful beverage that must be that pleases
all palates at a time when they can take
nothing else-at breakfast. Croke mem
tons that the doctors teapot held two
quarts.
Five O. clock tea is by no means modern
invention. It is of Swiss origin, and is
mentioned in the "Almanach des Gour-
mands." about O'Clock in the evening
the lady of the house makes, in the middle
of the drawine-room, some very strong tea,
softened by few drops of very rich cream
slices of bread and butter are served with
it. Such is the Swiss tea in all its simple
itv:but in rich houses there are added cakes,
preserved fruits, and even ices. 1t is
served every day, and it is the only meal to
which strangers are invited.

BISMARCK and Blaine are in accord in re-
gard to extending governmental aid, or sub
sidising the mere liant marine of their res
pective countries. Bismarck has memorial
lied the German legislature upon this sub
ject, and referring to the example of France
in this direction he says that German ship
Ping and German commerce cannot hope
for further development as against the
competition Of other nations, aided by pub
lie friends and assistance. On the day
the freight trade is given over to foreigners
amortal blow will be dealt to all the indus
tries of the country. 1t would be an an
omaly, from national standpoint, to cede
the transport trade to industrial rivals. 1t
is not an exaggeration to assert that before
the expiration of year after the promul-
CATION of the French bounties bill. the
French merchant service will receive con-
siderable augmentation, and that it will
share with England the transport trade of
the Atlantic, as also the trade with South
America, East India, Australia and other
colonies. It is given out that the state de-
partment officials think that the people of
the United States would do we'll to give
this subject some reflection in view Of the
fact that our flag is fast disappearing f1om
the seas.

Brian BOru.
From the Contemporary Review.

From the Contemporary REVIEW.
This favorite hero of Celtic Bard and hi
torian fell fighting, as everybody knows, or
ought to know, on the field of Clontarf; or
rather he WAS slain toward the end of the
battle by some fugitive Danes, who found
him praying in his tent-like Moses-for
the success of his people. He was at this
time SO years ofage. Many Of his kith and
kin persisted in the same battle. His
eldest son, Murrough, We are told, used
his battle-axe with great effect upon the
Danes until the right hand and arm became
so swollen that his blows were unable to
deal death through the armor Of his ene-
mics. In this condition he was set upon By
the Danish chief Arnuff. Selling his en-
emies with his left hand, Murrough first
shook him out his armor and then killed
him with his axe; but it is said that the
Dane, in his last moment, snatched his
opponents knife from his belt and plunged
it into his side. Tordelback, or Turlough,
son of Murrough, and grandson of Brian J.,
also died hard that day. He was only a
boy of 16, but despite his youth the "An-
nails of Clonmacnoise" tell us that his body
was found after the battle float
ing in the tideway of the Tolka river, with
both hands twisted in the hair Of Dane
whom he had followed into the sea.
Fortunately for the future MacMahons,
some of the Brian's children survived this
famous day at Clontarf. Tordelbaek the
second-scn of another son-left child,
Murrough, who afterward became king of
Ireland in 100. He left son. Mahon
O'Brian, the first MacMahon of Corca Bas-
ca. That the family came from a good
fighting stock we think that the above
details will sufficiently attest. BY what
pl ogress his Mahon O'Brian, became chief
of Corca Basca-namely, of all the shore
line, hillside, river, vale, and meadow we
have looked at fl om the height of land on a
summer evening lately described is

could not have proved matter of grave
difficulty to the kin of Murrough the armor-
shaker, or Tordelback the hair-twister,

ONE Of the things most discouraging to
lovers of liberty is the readiness manifest
ed by unthinking editors and unthinking
readers to abrogate or diminish the priv
ileges by the United States as an asylum
for political offenders from abroad, and
this at the suggestion of those whose great
pride, is in the permanance of des-
potic institutions, and whose great
est fear is that the people will
learn to govern themselves, as in the
United States. Every lover of republican
government, ever yhater of tyranny, should
sympathise very strongly with exiles who
have risked life and fortune in resistance
to tyranny, and in every endeavor. however
mistaken or futile, to secure liberty for
their fellow countrymen. Martyrs Of lib
erty should not only have the protection of
q secure asylum, but be cordially welcomed,
as they were, In the earlier, not to say bet
ter days of the republic, to country where
safety and freedom are assured. The
country that harbored Kosciusko and Kos
suth must take 90 back steps towards the
Cancellation of imperialism, in whatever
form it may exist. The American, unless
he be craven bastard, and an almost in
conceivable snob, will not ALLOW our free soil
to become hunting ground of hereditary
tyrants.

Mrs Garfleld's Delicate Condition.

NIS UdrAcluS DtICdCc COQullODs
A special dispatch from Washington
based upon official confirmation furnished
by the presidents family physicians. makes
the announcement of a fact which must
greatly intensity public interest in the
presidents case and add to the sorrowful,
features of it if the executive should prove.
victim to the assassin. This news relates
to the condition of Mrs. Garfield. This
lady, as the public already knows, has been
very ill ever since her advent to the White
House. At the time the president was shot
Mrs. Gar6eld's condition was 50 critical
that the physicians who attended her at
Long Branch all but despaired of her re-
covery. After her recall to Washington by
Guiteau's chine the true character of the
lady being SO strongly appealed to asserted
itself, and from that time she has apparent
~ been much better. It is now announced
that it is expected that in November next
Mrs. Garfield will again become mother.
She is now in her forty sixth year. When
it is stated that Mrs. Garaeld's case was
entirely misunderstood up to the time of
the attempted assassination, that only at
that time was it's real nature made known
to her and the president, the special enor-
nifty of Guiteau's act becomes apparent.

The Great Wisconsin Scandal.
GARFIELD'S CRITICAL CONDITION.

A Victim to Deadly Dysrebsia-Hope of His
Recovery Almost Entirely Departed.
Sunday night the president was very
restless, and he vomited several times, while
under the influence of powerful opiates.
On Monday morning his pulse was 118,
notwithstanding the cool weather.
Then it transpired that mixture
had been made of whisky, the yolk of an
egg, beef essence and milk and injected in
to the intestines, to be taken up by absorp-
ton through the membranes of the bowels.
The Doctors said that nothing had been
taken into the stomach save medicine.
The country was greatly alarmed
at these accounts and still more Monday
evening wheu his pulse was 100. The
doctors said that it was violent dyspeptlc
attack and that his condition was critical.
The members of the cabinet were called in
and remained at the White House all night
Tuesday morning he was little better.

A New ZEALAND correspondent of one
of the English printing trade journals COM
plains that types cast in the United States
are fast superseding those of English make
and styles in Australia, New Zealand, and
in fact all the islands constituting Polyne-
STA. The journal in question comments on
this announcement in rather doleful vein
and then admits that SO far as job and fancy
styles of types are concerned the complaint
will apply to England itself, as we'll as to
her south sea colonies. 1t says it is con-
stantly in receipt of specimens of printing
from all the principal establishments in
the United Kingdom, and that nearly every
card and circular received shows that it is
printed in part if not wholly with types of
American manufacture.

NOTHING has been heard recently of
the $3.50. 900 subscription for Mrs. Gar
field. More than half this amount has been
subscribed, but many from whom the largest
sums were expected, preferred to await
events Should the president die she would
undoubtedly receive the whole amount; but
there are many objections to paying it over
while he lives, or at least until his presl-
Dental career is closed.

THERE has been a great deal of falling
off in the business of the Erie canal this
year, owing to the fierce competition of the
railroads. One of the largest canal towing
companies in the state has decided to wind
up because business has dwindled to such
point that there is no profit in it. But
the New York Bulletin says: That in the
nature of the case the decline must be tenn
porary. The railroad war, as it is called,
may be terminated at any moment, in
which case the freight which they are just
now carrying for next to nothing will find
its way back to the water route over which
it has always been transported cheap

Seven Brides on Seven DAYS.

The Newap of Gondal in India has
chosen seven youthful and lovely brides
from among the daughters of the Gondal
aristocracy, and has made arrangements to
lead them to the altar, one after another,
upon seven successive days. It will be
the pleasing duty of each bride progressive
and in regular rotation, to attend the we'd
ding celebrated subsequently to her own,
so that the first lady of the series will en-
joy the unusual privilege of witnessing
seven nuptual ceremonies, in all of which
she will be more or less directly interested
within the limits of single week. The
sevenfold bridegroom, however, has be-
slowed upon all his brides wedding dresses
and ornaments of identical material, design
and value. The rooms they are destined to
occupy in his palace are all furnished ex-
actly alike; aud the accident of seniority, as
regards tt mere date of their respective
marriage ceremonies, is not to carry with it
any precedence.

and ungentlemanly profanity by some of our
young men (who think they are at the top
of the social ladder) in the presence of
Young ladies on the dance pavilion in a pic
mic grove.
We should like to see young men throw
away their cigars when they are the escorts
of ladies on public thoroug hfares.
We should like to see fewer young men
lounging outside church doors, and more
of them inside listening to the arguments
that make the solid men.
We should like certain set of young
men to drink less whisky, pay their debts
without murmuring. and cease defaming
men of good character in the presence Of
others for the purpose of creating an i'm
preston that they are of more consequence
than they really are. Positions do not

REFERRING to the recent war between
the great railroad lines, whereby rates were
temporarily brought down without sense or
reason, it is observed that the facts that
these break occur periodically, and that
all the through lines can afford to carry
passengers and freights for little or moth
ing during part of the year without seri-
ously hurting their profits or dimin fishing
the value of their stocks, show conclusively
that the regular tariff of charges as agreed
upon are too high.

The decision of the supreme court of
Minnesota, on the application for writ of
prohibition against the bond commission,
will probably not be promulgated for at
least week or ten days. 1t is the general
impression among those who have given
most attention to the subject, that the writ
will not be issued, and that no decision
may be expected on the question of the
amendment of 1860, though that has been
one of the principal topics of discussion
before the court.
