Ne,c York Herald Cairo Special.
II is somewhat interesting to notice the
nonchalance with which the Cairo merchants
look upon the condition of their city.
At is all right now" said one Of the most
prominent Of them to-day. awe will be
able TO sit on the tops of our levees aud snap
our fingers at the next food"
"But what about the water in the city
now?"
"oh, that's good thing in one way. Oh
course IL gives us some inconvenience; but
as soon as the water in the river falls few
feet lower we will open our sewers and the
city will be washed out. We always have a
healthy season after food. II carries off 81
much bad matter"
"But would it not De better not to have
ftp.
Oh, certainly, and we shall arrange that
now. The trouble, you know, comes from,
the sipe water. This comes IL almost alto.
gether through deep bed of coarse sand
which lies where Lie river formerly ran. IL
Is altogether under the new levee. Now we
propose TO dig ditch about two thousand
feet long and about twenty feet deep aIeng
the outside of the levee, and fiji 1t with
clay. Then the sipe water will not trouble
u.s.
Whether such simple means will avail or
not remains 10 be seen. The one thing thar
has been demonstrated Is that Cairo had an
exceedingly narrow escape from utter de-
struction. That IL has escaped and that ii
will hereafter escape II there is virtue in
strong. high leyees, seems also certain.

heard, at an entertainment the above words
uttered by one of our fashionable ladies.
A gentleman and lady were walking up
the aisle TO take their seats, when a lady
visitor to our town asked her companion
"who he wasp" and lady friend Of hers inn
mediately answered In the above words. The
following tribute to the noble "art preserva-
tive" we End in contemporary: sWhs was
the Earl Of Stanhope? He was only q print
or. What Is Prince Frederick William, mar
rled to the Princess Royal Of England? He,
too, was only printer. Who was William
Caxton, one Of the fathers of literature He
was only printer. Who was G. p. Norris,
N. p. Willis, j. Gales, G. Richardson, Hor-
ace Greeley, Bayard Taylor, Charles Dick

Journalism.
Ea.eard Eaale.ton. IN The ceuturn

Il
remember TO have read that some wears
ago Wendell Phillips, riding to a town
where he was to lecture, was surprised TO
learn that the farmer in whose vehicle he
travelled believed that Nj. Greeley, the ed.
itor Of the beloved Weekly Tribune, wrote
all that there was In it. When Mr.. Phillips
bad explained to him that many hands were
needed TO make great paper, the man said,
"Well, / .'pose that's so; but there's the
Farmers Club articles--them's old Horace
all over" A journal is an epic with but one
hero in the mind of the man who does not
know with what voracity great newspaper
or magazine eats up human lives and swal-
lows the regulations and talents of able
men in all departments of writing and man
agement. ALI the labor, all the skill of lit
erary judgment and business conduct,
are carried up TO the credit of the editorial
head by some people, and they will even
| persist in remitting subscription money TO
al editor. II is hard for those at a distance
to imagine the highly organized co-opera-
ton of many diverse abilities that go to
make up supreme periodical; and people
are surprised, when great editor dies, that
the genius of journalistic conduct does not
at once forsake his periodical. They find
the same alertness, the same discretion, the
very same flavor as before; when, according
to their notions, all of this should have been
buried with Caesar. once met lady who,
being great admirer of the Plymouth pas
tor, was utterly disguised to find that GER
tain articles in the Christian Union, which
she had been enjoying, were "not written
by Beecher at all, but by man named
M" of whom she had never before
heard. The characteristic quality of peri
odical does not inhere In one man. 1t is
the resultant Of many diverse geniuses-an
effect produced, like that seen in a rich
window, by the sunlight passing through
various media, so arranged as to form
complete whole. The chief editor gets all
the credit Of this as a sort Of Offset for hav
ing to take all the blanc; but neither credit
nor blame belongs wholly to him.
The great mass of gifted and effective
workers in periodical literature necessarily
go down into the waters of forgetfnlness.
They work with the heartiest enthusiasm,
though the admiring public will never
know them, but will clap its hands in ap-
plause of somebody else. Only when a
great editor like DR. Holland dies, and the
magazine or paper goes straight ahead in
the path marked out by him aud bis asso-
cia:es, do they realize that there were other
men Of noble gifts at work, as
well as the responsible leader. Even
then, the amount and variety of ind-
vidual gifts that are used, absorbed, devoured,
to make magazine great, never enters into
the imagination of the public which enjoys
the repast, but does not wish to be troubled
with complex ideas of its mode of prepare
ton. 1t is, indeed, one chief aim Of mas.
ter journalist to make his periodical so great
that Its quality will not depend OH any ones
life or continued service.

BUTTONS.


| The making Of buttons Is m industry
which has shown very material increase dur
Ing the past few years, and those who are not
directly Interested In the matter would be
surprised to note the extent TO which the
manufacture engages the time of working
people In various parts Of the world. AL
though this country engages largely In the
work Of making certain kinds of buttons by
machinery, and stands unequalled in the
manufacture Of the brass, ivory, and ma
chiDe-covered varieties, Americans, accord
Ing to local trade paper, can not compete
In the manufacture Of the styles requiring
hand-work or the use Of stone. To this fact
Is to be attributed the steady increase In the
imponations year by year. In 1878 there
were sent to New York city alone S, 2S0, $50
worth of foreign made buttons, and last year
the importations amounted to $3.50, 800.
For the four years between these dates the
total importation Of buttons to New York
aggregated sl2, 9S3, 223, and the button trade
Is now estimated as being between $780,
O0and 10000, 900 per annum. Glass buttons
arc made mostly in Bohemia, aud children
are largely employed at the work, which
they do as quickly and as neatly as adults.
The children get ten cents day, men from
forty to fifty cents, and women little less.
Pearl buttons are imported from Vienna,
where they are almost exclusively mauufac-
tured, and the all-important shirt-buttons
are received mostly from Birmingham, En-
gland, where the majority Of metal buttons
are likewise procured. The most extensive
Of all the button manufacturing, however, Is
that Of the Partisan and Berlin novelties, In
which new styles arc gotten up and sent to
America nearly every week. In one manu-
featuring village near Paris, where there are
frsm five thousand to six thousand iDhabi-
tants, all the working people are engaged In
making the agate button, which, even with
thirty per cent. duty added to the cost, sell,
when imported into this country, at the ex-
tremely low figure of thirty -one cents per
great gross. The material alone, it is re-
ported, could not beprocured here for double
that amount. While America does not at
tempt to engage in this part of the industry,
she has, as before stated, made unprecedent-
ed advance in the making Of bone, compost
tion, brass, ivory, and gold buttons, and 30
far leads the Old World in this branch of the
work that American manufacturers find
market abroad for these styles, and export
considerable quantity each year. Provi-
dence, r. l., for example, manufactures
sleeve and jewelry buttons generally ex-
pressly for expectation. Large button fac
tories are in operation in Attleborough,
Newark, Long Island, and other eastern To-
calities,

Something New In Advertising.

IL has remained for druggist in New Ha
ven to find a new and highly important us,
| for the advertising columns of newspaper
| one that entities him TO rank with the phi
genious apothocary put a poisonous com
| pound in prescription brought to his place
by woman, perfect stranger 10 him, he
not knowing either her name or residence.
When he discovered the frightful error he
had committed, he did not sit down to wiring
his hands or waste time in useless regrets;
he sat down and penned an advertisement
warning the woman of the dangerous nature
using the compound, and requested her to
return and get the proper medicine. He
FASTENED to the Office of the daily evening
newspaper, where, on stating the case, he
experienced no difficulty in having the
advertisement well displayed In conspicL-
GUS place. half dozen persons FASTENED
TO call the woman's attention to the novel
but effective danger signal. The attention
of almost every one in the city having
sick person In their house, therefore likely
to have prescription compounded, was
called to the curious advertisement, which
efiectually performed Its work of saving a
human life. Very promptly the poisoned
medicine was returned, the proper drugs
substituted, and the blundering apothecary
for his presence of mind.
Mistakes will happen TO druggists as well
IS TO other mortals; all errors cannot be set
right by advertising them; but much good
can be done, In seemingly hopeless cases, by
by the use of printers ink. Lugubrious
mortals, who cannot discover any good in
advertising anything at any time, should
ponder over the advertisement in New Ha-
ven that was instrumental In saving human
life.
