The Comet.

The news that on the day of its peri
helion passage the great comet was seen
in South America clear up to the edge
of the sun, where it disappeared to re-
appear on the other side, is very extraor-
binary. The further news that careful
comparisons of the observations made
before and after perihelion show that,
notwithstanding its close approach to
the sun, the comets orbit was not SEN
sibly changed, is equally interesting.
Those who asserted that this was the
comet of 1880 again visiting the sun,
and that in consequence of the retarda-
ton it suffered by passing through the
suns atmosphere it would return within
a year or two and fall into the sun, may
have to revise their opinion, especially
as the calculated orbit shows that this
comet cannot be the same one that was
seen in 1880. 1-~z-y persons were
alarmed by the predictions of such q
catastrophe, they can now calm their
fears, and with equanimity watch the
great comet slowly fading away in the
depths of space.

Preserved CitrOn Melon.

Pare, core and cut into slices some
fine citron melon. Weigh them; to a
pound of melon allow pound of refined
sugar, for twelve pounds of sugar and
melon com bined, allow the juice and
grated rind of four large lemons and a
quarter of pound of root ginger. Boil
the slices of melon half an hour or
more, till they look quite clear and are
so tender that broom straw will pierce
them. Then drain them and lay in a
pan of cold water, cover them and let
stand all night. In the morning tie the
root ginger in thin muslin cloth and
boil in three pints of clear water till the
water is highly favored; take out the
bag of ginger and pour the water over
the sugar, now put these in the preserv-
ing kettle. Set over the fire, put in the
grated peel of lemons, boil and skim it
till no skum rises. Then put in the
sliced citrons and the Juice of the
lemons, boil them in the syrup till all
are transparent and soft, but do not
break them. When done put the slices,
still warm, into jars and pour over the
syrup.

Affairs in Egypt.

It is positively stated in Caro- that
the Egyptian Government has no inten-
ton of doing anything to prevent the
proceedings IN Arab Pasha's trial from
following their due course, whatever
may be attempted by the Porte in that
direction.
1t was rumored in Cairo that the Sui
tan has ordered the proceedings against
Arab to be stopped. The list of wit
nesses to be examined by commission at
Constantinople is increasing. Among
the correspondence of Arab are an i'm
portant letter from an abide camp of
the Sultan and several letters from All
med Essad, the Sheikh-ul-Islam. Mr..
Droaoley states that the latter's letters
will throw light upon the numerous tele-
grams found at l-el-Kebir. Mr.. Will
frid Blunt, telegraphing Mr.. Napier,
one of Arabs counsel, relative to the
discovery of Arabi's papers, says that
success is assured. There are incessant
complaints made in Cairo in regard to
the treatment of the families of the rebel
prisoners by the Khedive's employees.
Arab Pasha's family shift their resi-
dence almost daily in order to avoid
violence.
Arab has again been insulted by his
Oircassian guard. Two Notables, who
are accused of aiding Arab with money,
are chained together in an underground
dungeon, foul beyond description. The
Swiss, Ninet, writes to the Times pro-
testing that he only served Arab in the
ambulance. He gives q graphic account
of the filthy condition of his prison at
Cairo. He says thumb-screws were put
on him during the journey from Cairo
to Alexandria. At the latter place he
was thrust into a prison tilthier than
the one at Cairo and swarming with
vermin. He was robbed by the iailers
and then put on board a vessel for de-
portation to Smy rna, but was smuggled
ashore at the PirmHs by the aid of an
Armenian officer of the ship. He went
thence to Borne. Ninet says he believes
that there are 5000 innocent men in
Egyptian prisons such as he has de-
scribed.

American Fables,

A Wolf who had arrived at good old
age and no longer felt able to go out
and play the string game on the limo
cent and Unconfiding, called his son to
him one day and said
"NIy cantankerous Offspring, I am
growing old. I am stiff in the Joints,
troubled with dyspepsia, and no longer
have the sand to go out and tackle any
thing bigger than yearling Lamb. ]
feel that it is time for me to hang up. :"
The Son humbly agreed, and the Old
Wolf continued
81 have managed, as you are aware,
by strict attention to Poker, Faro and
few other Family Amusements, to lay
by some Sugar for my old age. I shall
turn everything over to you, Beloved
Offspring. and depend upon you to care
for me during the few brief years of
my stay on Earth"
Excellent idea, Governor-very ex-
cellent," replied the Son, and he went
out behind the house to crack his Heels
together and poke himself in the Ribs.
That same evening the old wolf sat
down for Smoke, but before he had
drawn SIX whiffs from his Pipe the Be-
loved Son remarked:
'"That habit is both disgusting and
expensive, and I'd advise you to quit.
The Pipe was laid aside, and tn old
man went to the cupboard to take a Nip
of Red Eye for his Stomach's sake.
"And you also want to chop off on
that" observed the Beloved. "Whisky
not only costs Money, but degrades the
Intellect"
Ihe ~ ~. nan replaced the Bottle
with a heartfelt sigh and humbly in
quired if there was any Gold Chicken
left from supper.
"Cold Chickenl Well you have got
Cheek and no mistake. IL Goldfish

"You will, at least, permit me to
stay in the House over night, hope, "
said the Father.
"Why have no objections to your
sleeping on the floor tonight, but
you'd better Dig Out pretty early in the
morning."
Then the Venerable Parent fell upon
the Beloved Offspring and made his
heels break his Neck, and flung him
out doors and over the Fence, and
gave him to Understand that he was q

Penn's Speech to the Indians.

"The Great Spirit rules in the
heavens and the earth. He knows that
we have come here with a hearty desire
to live with you in peace. We use no
hostile weapons against our enemies.
Good faith and good will toward men
are our defenses. We believe you will
deal kindly and justly by us, as we will
deal kindly and justly by you. We will
not be to you as brothers, for brothers
sometimes contend with brothers. Nor
shall our friendship be as the chain that
rust may weaken, that the tree may fall
upon and sunder. We will be as one
heart, one head, one body; that if one
suffers, the other suffers; that if any
thing changes the one it changes the
other. We will go along the broad
pathway of good will to each other
The chief of the Delawares replied:
" I pledge you kindness and goodwill.
1t is the kings mind that your words
shall be accepted and kept by him
forever; that the Indian and the
Christian snail live and love together as
long as the sun gives light in the
heavens. We must be one-half Indian
and the other half English, being as
one flesh and blood under one head"
Penn aHt his F,Ald-znrea the chiefs
shoulder and said: s'When one forxets,
the other must remind him So" He
then turned to the children and said:
"And now, my dear children, hear my
counsel. Stay it in your hearts. Re-
member your Creator in the days of your
youth. You are now beginning to live,
L charge you before the Lord, honor
and obey, love and cherish your dear
mothers. Betake yourselves to some
honest, industrious course in life. Let
your industry and parsimony go no,
further than for sufic1ency in life.
1 charge You help the poor and needy.
Love not money nor the world. Use
them only and they will serve you. Pity
the distressed. Be gentle in your con-
versatIons. Watch against anger.
Avoid fatterers. Be mperate in all
things. Speak no evil of any one, no
not of the meanest. And thou, Phila-
delphia, the virgin settlement named
before thou vert born, what love, what
care, what service and travail have there
been to bring thee forth and
preserve thee from such as would defle
thee"
