the number Of claims now pending will be
rejected or abandoned. This would show
the probable rejection Of 94,0l0 cases, and
the probable admission OF about l9S,000
claims, all OF which involve the payment
ofarTears OF pensions. With the present force
employed, the number OF adiudicatious
remaining the same, and no new business

years; and taking January ], 1884, as new
period from which TO estimate in each case,
IN average amount OF arrears, it is found
that every case allowed would require for
the first payment upon It the sum Of 81 $50,
Multiplying this amount by the whole
number OF probable admissions, gives
$50 100000, as the sum required for the
first payments. This represents the sum
which must be paid upon the claims, which
were filed before July !, 1850, and are now
pending and entitled to the benefits OF the
arrears act. From this amount, $3.50, 000,-
900, may be deducted from $1,000, 900 to
Sl5,OO0,0OO for cases where the claimant

law, would be entitled to succeed to the

Judgment by consent had been dccrocd
in the sum of $4,000, in favor of Mrs.
l.ayne, administrators. The judgment
stood unpaid.
Inc Anderson cases and the Newberry
case, representing injuries TO passengers
and to an employee, went up to the SUI
premc Court together, and we're argued
there last January. Because having
been of counsel in the case in the Circuit
Court, both Chief Justice Simpson and
Associate Justice McGowan were dis
qualified for sitting on these cases, and
their places were taken by Judge Al
drich and Judge Fraser Of the Circuit
Bench. The argument for the Receiver
and the bondholdcrs was made bv Col.
Simonton and Judge Melton; and the
petitioners represented by Mr.. Benet,
and Judge Bacon. The Importance of
the cases and Of the novel principles
involved induced the Court to listen TO
four long arguments which occupied a
whole day session and night session.
The briefs and printed arguments were
in the hand OF the Court from January
to September, when Judge Eraser filed,
on tho 10th of last month the unani.
nous decision OF the Court in favor of
the petitioners.
The decision is onc of unusual in,por-
tance: The points involved are new

a MODERN IMITAToR OF NoAu.-A
few miles below Ohio, Alabama, there
is au old negro named Moses - who
claims he had q revelation from the
Lord, in which he received information
that the world would again be destroyed
by water. lie was so convinced that the
destruction would be by water that he at
once began the work of building an ark.
He has been thus engaged for several
months, and the result of his labors may
be easily seen from the river. This ark
is very unlike the representations Of the
one built by Noah, and would doubtless
not Withstand any severe gales, such as
might be expected in cruise of forty
days and nights. This oddly constructed
vessel, or house, is placed on high hill
ready for tho rising water. 1t is com

feet wide and ten feet ong, which are
placed on top of each -.her. Each has

NEWPORT HOUSES.

Eight feet is the fashionable height
for the first floor, and nine the,,most al
lowed, in the fashionable villas at New
port. This is marked change from the
twelve and fourteen feet ceilings hereto
fore popular. The windows are square,
with minute panes of glass, and seem to
be thrown at the house to lodge wher-
ever it happens, many open, light case
ments. and there must be several sizes
of glass in the same sash. Piazza rails
are built high and solid, so that you in
reality sit, when out of doors, in room
without a roof. Loop-holes filed in
with square lattice cause these piazzas
to look very much like fortresses. The
chimneys, built of handsome brick, are
not covered indoors, and the sides of
many a drawing-room are entirely Of
brick, with a fireplace and wooden
brackets and shelves for bric-a-brac.
The color is rich cred cement is used>

TOOTHACHE.

To have it out or not-that is the question;
Whether tits better for the jaws to suffer
The pangs and torments of an aching tooth,
Or to take steel against host-of troubles
And, by extracting, end them? To pull-to tug
No more; and by a tug to say we end
The toothache, and thousand natural ills
The jaw is heir to-tis contamination
Devoutly to be wished. To pull-to tug
To tug! perchance to break-aye, there's the rub;
For in that wrench what agonies may come,
When we have half dislodged the stubborn foe,
Must give us pause; there's the respect
That makes aching tooth of so long life;
For who would bear the whips and stings OF pain,
The old wife's nostrum, dentists contumely,
The pangs of hope deferred, kind sleep delay,
When he himself might his quietus make
For one poor shilling? Who would fardels bear,
To groan and sink beneath load of pain,
But that the dread Of something longed within,
The lnen-twisted forceps, from whose pangs
No jaw at ease returns, puzzles the will
And makes it rather bear the ills 1t has
Than fly to others that it knows not OF?
Thus dentists do make towards OF us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Ia sicklied DER with the pale cast Of fear;
And many a one whose courage seeks the door
with this regard, his footsteps turns away,

but slightly inserted in their sockets,
while the great and dangerous irritation
attends on the cutting of the large
grinding teeth, and, in the male, of the
tushes. The presence Of the wolf teeth
in the mouth at this time is an accident
and not an injury. The temporary re-
covery often following their removal
would have taken place all the same had
they been left in the mouth, and later
attack is just as likely as if they were
present. The excitement attending on
teething is natural what we should
guard against isexcess. Any costiveness
of the bowels should be corrected by the
feeding, or, if necessary, by one ounce
of Glauber's salt daily. Teeth pressing
painfully beneath tense, resistant, pain
full gums indicate the need of the lancet;
teeth entangled on the crowns Of their

SPEECHES LEARNED BIZ HEART.

( I have never yet precisely understood
why it is considered the most vicious
thing that can be said Of a man that he
learns his speeches by heart. I should
have imagined that an audience ought to
be grateful to speaker for taking this
trouble. To complain Of it is to regard
speaking like dancing on a tight-rope,
and to incumber it with difficulties in
order to derive pleasure from seeing
them overcome. In nine cases out Of
ten learned speech is better than an
unlearned one. I have always envied
the memory Of those who, without hest
tation or pause, can deliver set GRAFTON.
One Of the greatest adopts Of this art
was Lord Beaconsfeld, who, although a
fluent and ready impromptu speaker,
often adopted it. More than once he
has handed speech to the reporters at
meetings, and he has then repeated it
without the mistake of word. I once
tried to do this some one had explained
to me system of mnemonics, by means
of which everything was to be remem-
bered by locating phrases in different
corners of the room. For five minutes

INDIVIDUALITY.

The real force of personality consists
chiefly in its constant upward growth.
The spiritual energy which lies at the
core Of a mans being, and inspires all
his faculties, will, if healthy and sound,
increase and strengthen. And, just as
the tree grows by assimilating the ele-
ments that nourish it-just as the body
grows by the reception OF food, which,
by the process Of digestion, is turned
into flesh and bone and blood SO TIE
individuality which each man and woman
calls ST" must grow, If at all, by assim-
ilating into its own being its proper
nutriment from outside of itself.
