SUNDAY READING.



One of our religious exchanges has
the following strong remarks on this
subject. They drive the nail to the
head and clinch it "Men may So
phisticate how they please. They can
never make it right, and all the iniqui
tous laws in the universe cannot make
it right for them not to pay their debts,
There is a sin in this neglect as clear
and as deserving church discipline as is
stealing or false swearing. He who
violates his promise to pay, or witholds
the payment of debt when it is in his
power to meet the obligation, ought
to feel that in the sight of all honest
men he is swindler, Religion may be
a very comfortable clU..k under which
to hide, but if religion does not make
man deal justly, it is not worth
having"

transports prays that distinction be
granted to the god of winds, who pro-

Anecdoie of judge STORY.

The following anecdote about the
famous jurist Story is in private circu-
lation, but is good enough for the pub
lie eye. 1t was prepared for Story's
biography by his son, but Charles
Sumner, who edited the work, struck it
out. The narrative runs like this:
In his younger days Story lived in
the aristocratic old town of Salem, in
Massachusetts,. His great ability was
not then tempered by as much wisdom
as he afterward displayed, and he was
looked upon with disfavor by some of
the old families. One day Mrs. A.
called upon Mrs. B., and in the course
of their conversation there being a
seamstress present) Mrs. A. asked Mrs.
b. if her daughter was going to the
party that evening. "No," was the
short reply, "I don't propose to let
my daughter go to any place which is
frequented by that Insignificant young
puppy Story" Years afterward, when
Story was a Judge on the supreme
bench, he visited Salem, and was
warmly welcomed by those who had
known him formerly. Among his best
friends apparently was Mrs. b., and he
accepted her pressing invitation to din
ner. Now, in the years which had
elapsed, the seamstress had become
possessed of a home of her own, to
which was attached a garden, with a
pear tree, which was Just then loaded
with fine fruit. After the invitation to
dinner had been accepted the seam
stress received call from Mrs. B.'s
servant, asking her to send up basket
of her excellent pears for dinner, as
I" Mr.. Justice Story, of the supreme
court of the Unitt d States, was to be
present" The good-natured seam
stress sent the pears at once, and with
them this message; "Tell your mis-
tress that 1 am glad that the insignid-
cant young puppy Story has grown to
be SO ine a dog. ."-HDpsr's Magazine.

The republican members of the
house of Representatives at Washing
ton decided at their caucus, Wednes-
day night, that it is inexpedient to re-
duce the internal revenue taxes on
whiskey and tobacco. AS long as
there is any necessity for any inter-
nal revenue taxes at all the taxes on
whiskey and tobacco should not re-
duced at all. There is no call for
congress to offer premium to whisky
and tobacco manufacturers and deal
ers, and every body knows that would
be the practical effect of the proposed
reduction of these taxes.-Spring-
field Union.
But why the need of any caucus
about it? This getting together in
caucus in a legislature or in congress,
as party, and conjuring how to OPP
pose the other party, or to fight OF
advance a measure is a little in the
"gag rule plan. Better let every
single man form his own opinions
alone and act Independently. This
is democratic in the catholic sense
and is the right way.

THE NEW SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN OF
FICEs.-We are glad to announce that the
Scientific american came out of the late
fire in New York, like the tabled Phoenix,
with renewed life. The subscription
lists, account books, patent records, pat
ent drawings and correspondence were
preserved in massive fre-proof safes.
The printing of the Scientific american
and Supplement was done in another
building, consequently the type, plates,
presses, paper, etc, were unframed, and
no interruption of business was occa-
stoned.
The new Scientific american offices are
located at 261 Broadway, corner of War
rem Street, a very central and excellent
situation. The new building fronts tow
ards the City Hall, the Court House, and
the new postotfice-a magnificent struc-
ture, which cost eight millions to build.
Nearly opposite, and a few hundred feet
distant from the Scientific american of
fees, is the entrance to the great suspen-
sion bridge over the East River, between
New York and Brooklyn, which required
ten years to construct and twenty mil
lions of dollars to pay for. In front, also
of the Scientific american is the City Hall
Park and Printing House Square, with its
statue of Benjamin Franklin, and the
| homes of eminent editors and newspapers
] such as the New York Tribune, Times
| San, World, Herald, Nail and Express
| Zeitung, and others.
