CHICAGO, June 8.-To-day's private adylces
from England reported bad weather, strong
markets and good demand. Our wheat
market ruled strong and closed up stiff at the
advance. Consumers are taking all the cash
stuff they can get at about S1.20. and the ex-
porters are willing to pay the same owing to
the fee quality. There were eighty seven
cars of new winter received to day and eighty
one of new graded No. g. The tone of the
market is healthy and am inclined to think
prices will go still higher. Curb for August
is $110%.
Corn wasn't so active to-day and sold off
some. The shorts are about all covered, and
as indications point to increased receipts;
there may be still more of decline, but /
don't think it will be permanent and still ex-
pect to see July sell at S5c. The curb for
August is 79%c.
Provisions quiet and steady. closing triae

Judges Who Wear Gowns and Pay
Their Clerks $4,000 Year.

1t Is not true, the attaches of United
States Supreme Court say, that any of
the Justices have had gowns made in
Paris by Worth. They are all home
made, and have all been made by one
family of people for nearly forty years.
Zach Chandler had a very poor opinion
of these gowns, for it is said OF him
that he once said to Salmon p. Chase,
a former Chief Justice: "Salmon, when
you have your id old JACKIE on you look
every inch a Judge" There is no reason
why one of these gowns should be called
jacket, for the skirt reaches the floor.
The gowns are put on the justices in
what is called the robe room, adjoining
the court, at five minutes to ~ o'clock,
for the judges never go upon the bench
until high noon. Then, after the Mar
shals deputy sings his song about "God
bless the United States and the Justices
of this court" or words to that effect,
the arrival of the justices having been
previously announced, they take their
seats and are ready for business.
The clerkshipof the COURTS worth more
than the salary of four of the Justices,
as it is said to frequently pay over $40,-
900 per year. The charges are simply
terrible. 1t costs about dollar for the
clerk to look at you, and another dollar
to get out of his sight. They have a
little talk then of keeping the decisions
back as long as possible, often couple
of months, and in the mean time if any
one wants a copy of the decision it costs
81 for each page of one hundred words.
There Is no good reason why the decis-
ions should not be put in type the day
they are delivered, and furnished as the
debates of Congress are furnished, the
day following but this was not the
practice sixty years ago, and they never
do anything about the court except in
the ime-honored but excessively slow
way. This, all agree, would be great
convenience, but it would take $4,000
a year out of the fees of the clerk, and
of course il is not done. Several times
bills have been prepared for introduce
ton In Congress on the subject, but
somehow nothing was heard of them
afterward. Those who proposed them
were convinced that it was not the Gus
tom, and they let the matter drop. The
Supreme Court has always held that
every bill relating to the court must
first be sent to them for inspection, and
strange as it may appear, they have
always carried this point in their respect.

Marriageable Young Ladies.

No class of young people are so much
abused as manageable young ladies, and
none are SO helpless to defend them
selves, when called by these opprobious
epithets, "heartless," ''inconstant" and
''merciless." Hid securely away in al
most every young lady's history there is
story of heart-break and blasted ex-
pectations, of which the cold world

love. Perhaps her most intimate conf
dants would not believe she had ro-
mantle episode connected with her life,
but the sad expression on the young face
is all that proves she has suffered. Her
gradual giving up worldly interests will
show how much. Not one-half of the
women who marry give their lives into
the keeping of the men of their choice.
In almost every instance the man she
loves best in the world is one who is not
looked upon with favor by the parents.
Can there be more trying position for
loving young woman? She has been
tenderly reared and beloved by her pa
rents with an almost idolatrous devotion;
they have staked much upon her COM

but when her lover comes, and she knows
her heart can never be given to another,
Notwithstanding their deep contempt for
him, she sees what terrible disappoint-
ment she will be to them if she follows
the promptings of her heart. Then
comes the conflict between duty and in
clination. Parents are growing old, and

those who have passed the prime OF life,
why daughter should not find it just
az convenient to marry as she selects, In
stead of bestowing her heart upon n
nameless young man who has no wealth.
The girl goes blindly to work, deter
mined to do what she thinks is right.
She has been taught to obey her parents,
and, besides, she must not embitter their
later years by any act of hers. After
much thoughtful consideration she gives
up all her thought of a marriage that
would grieve them, and heroically sacri-
fees herself in obedience to their wishes.
She does not dare hope much for the
future, but she believes she will be happy

her duty, and the man she marries (pool
innocent knows nothing of this little
by-play, and believes he possesses his
wife's undivided heart, but the bitter
awakening will come in time, and the re-
suit is an unhappy home. A man should
marry, when young, some maiden who
loves him for himself alone, rather than
wait for maturer years that have brought
wealth that weighs so heavily in the So
cial balance, and ultimately will drag his
soul into the very depths of shame,
when he realizes he has bought and paid
for heart he never owned-a life that
has dragged out merely an existence by
his side, uncomplainingly, perhaps, for
years. Thus the traffic in human hearts
continues from age to age, and the world
never thinks of blaming the fathers and
mothers, but censures those to whom
little blame belongs, who are more sinned
against than sinning.-Cowespondence

Art i'm Manners.

As manners can only be considered
from social point of view, conversation
will necessarily occupy prominent
place; and to excel in this art 1T Is essen
tial to be a good listener. People are
generally more anxious to speak than
listen. They are frequently thinking OF
what they are going to say rather than
of what Is being said; and even those
who are more polite very often fancy II
Is sufficient if they seem to be attentive
and yet at the same time their eyes be-
tray an absent mind, and show an Inn.
patient desire to continue their own
train of thought. When listening, the
attention should never be engrossed by
any ideas but those of the speaker.
Another important element Is the art oil
saying the right word in the right place,
difficulty which seems insuperable to
many, and which really is greater than
appears at first sight. When listening
To the cares and troubles of others, it is
scarcely gracious, and certainly not
comforting, to give long list OF similar
grievances. Nor is 1T polite, when a
friend is shown painting, sculpture, or
other work of art, for him instantly to
describe similar thing, only more val
liable, that he has seen elsewhere, or
possibly has in his own possession.
Several instances might be given of say
ing the right word in the right place; but
one is sufficient. For host or hostess
to introduce subjects with which they
know their friends to be familiar is
delicate attention which may pass I'M
noticed at the time, but will have the
good effect of making their guests feel at
their ease, and leave apleasant recollec-
ton, as everyone likes tOtalk upon sub
iect upon which he can talk well. Good
humor, or the habit of being easily
pleased, is essential to politeness; but
as there are often occasions when annoy
ances will arise, irritation may be con-
cealed by little attention to Art in
Manners; and thus prevent the discom-
fort being felt by others. Cheerfulness,
which is another requisite, enables its
fortunate possesser to make the best OF
circumstances. A gloomy or melancholy
individual never loses his self-conscious-
ness.
Manners should be to man what
coloring is to picture; nothing clashing
or contrary to good taste, but all beau
tifully blended in one harmonious whole.
Such result cannot be obtained by
mere outward polish. Its root lies deep
er and springs from the soil of the heart.
As our bearing toward others is guided
and shaped by the feelings, the cultiva-
ton of charity greatly helps to tone
down or modify any rough or uncouth
manners. Politeness may be IA social
virtue, but can only be true and sincere
when springing from refinement of mind.
Kindness of heart will cause its influence
to be felt in gentle bearing towards
all; and the secret of Art in Manners
may be found by acting on the principle
of making every one as happy as lies in
our power.

ssThe Saving OF Talent.o

A man recently advocated "com-
mission for the saving of talent" He
suggested that number of men of
scholarly attainments be appointed by
the state or city to visit the public schools
at regular intervals and watch for the
manifestations of unusual talent. A fund.
he thought, should be provided, so that
when those watchers found pupil of
marked intelligence they might furnish
the money for his instruction in higher
branches of study and thus make sure
that his talent would be developed. "This
talent-saving service" said the man, ''is
as important as the present life-saving
service"
Judicious aid extended to struggling
talent is commendable; but to talent
saving service" there is this objection:
1t would create a kind of intellectual
pauperism. Talent that cannot save it.
self is not worth the saving. Moreover,
the very struggle for self-assertion is the
ground wherein talent grows most
healthy md vigorous.

The young man followed her into the

"HOld the Fort"

notice a number of newspapers CIV
ing, or attempting to give, a correct
statement of the circumstances under
which our lamented friend and brother,
Judge j. w. Mckenzie, performed the
single act of heroism at Altoona, none of
which exactly coincide with detailed
statement of the case, AZ given to me by
the "hero" himself. had been especi-
ally intimate with him for many years.
Not one word had ever fallen from his
lips relative to this matter, to my knowl-
edge. One day, learning incidentally
from another of his connection with
"Hold the fort for am coming" took
occasion soon to ask him about it. He
seemed Mt first reluctant to tell me, but
Ipressed him, and this is substantially
his own account of it. After describing
the situation of the armies at Altoona
and Kenesaw, he said:
"Gen. Sherman's signal corps had
been trying to send dispatches from
Kenesaw to Gen. Corse. We could read
the dispatches with our telescopes, but
could not receive nor answer them back,
because the rebel shots were so thick.
The rebels had also lot of sharpshoot-
ers posted watching our squad, and
every time man would show himself
they would pick him off. At this time
Gen. Corse came up and said, address
ing the signal corps, who is IN COM
mand here?' Our captain was absent,
and was In command of the squad, and
L replied, q am, sir. The General then
asked if message could be sent to Gen.
Sherman in answer to his 80 hold the
fort, for he was coming just read. I
replied shat it could be if it was abso-
lutely necessary Gen. Corse then wrote
out the message and handed it to me. 1t
read as follows:
"'To Gen. Sherman:-I am short a
cheek-bone and one ear, but can whip
hell out of them yet.
GEN CoRsE.'
81 took it and the signal flag, and
called for a volunteer from my little
squad. No man responded. L then
offered the flagstaff to each man, and
asked him if he would volunteer, and
each one declined. I then thought L
would detail one, but my brother Tom
was in the squad, and the thought struck
me if L detailed another than him they

tailed him and he was shot L could never
forgive myself, and it seemed like GER
tain death to any one to undertake it.
At this moment of hesitation, the Gen
eral, seeing no man going forward, said
to me, firmly: Lieutenant, L thought
you said this message could be sent?
replied, 1T can, and without further de-
lay l mounted the signal station and
commenced sending the message, ex-
pecting every moment to be shot The
flag was about eighteen feet long, and
the wind was blowing some, and l found
it very hard work and felt as though 1
must give out before 1 was done. At
this moment, when it seemed 1 could
stand it no longer, stranger, not a
member of the signal corps, came up
behind me, put his arms around me and
along my arms, took hold of the flag
staff, and standing behind me, helped
me to wave the answer back to Sherman.

whole message without help or rest"
