Sicilian Hotels.
Mr.. Charles Dudley Warmers Experience
of One of Them.

Mr.. Charles Dudley Warner is enjoying him
self in Sicily. The next best thing to travel
in strange lands ones self is to have Charles
Dudley Warner do the travelling, and then
tell us all about it in his own delightful way.
His letters from Sicily, published in his paper,
the Hartford Courant, are as pleasant reading
of the kind as can be found. In his latest,
printed Saturday, we read of his visits to Agri-
gentum and Catania, and of his impressions of
the ruins and other great relics of Greek, Re-
man, Christian and Saracenic civilizations
which have fiourished in that island. We find
room for a characteristic paragraph concerning
some of his hotel experiences
But am wandering from this hotel which L
wish to commend. 1t hasn't its like in the
world, think, out of Sicily, and here is only
matched by those in Syracuse, How it is kept
running cannot imagine, since the keepers of
it feel no interest in their guests until the time
comes for making out the bill. They give all
their energies to that 1t is hotel where you
can call for anything you want. You have this
privilege; but of course you do not get any
thing. 1t is not true to say that it contains
nothing that you can eat, and nobody to serve
it, for we did live in fashion. But it is an
exciting place, place where you struggle

an amused manner.
When we went into the dining room sur
prise awaited us. We found some thing that
had never seen before, and did not expect so
far from the centres of civilization. This was
an electric bell on the table, cord, passing
over the chandelier, terminated in knob which
rested on glass dish convenient to the hand.
We at first supposed that this was intended to
administer an electric shock to the boarders
exhausted with waiting But we ascertained
that by pressing button in the knob, we could
rim with great violence distant bell. I never
saw anything SO convenient. Without rising
from the table, we could ring this as much as
we liked. 1t is a great improvement, and I
wonder the invention is not introduced else
where. There is no harm in it, for no one in
the house paid the least attention to it, The
people were superior to their own invention.
Occasionally the waiter made his appearance,
but never in response to this bell. The land
lord is on the eve of great discovery. When
he discovers that the object of ringing an cleo
trio bell is to have it answered, that it should
summon waiter, and that the waiter in re-
quest ought to bring some thing to eat he will
have taken a great step il the art of keeping a
hotel. AS it is, can only think of one thing
that is needed to complete his dining room, and
that is a placard with the legend, 1.-THE Lord
will PROVIDE

Memorial Day.

Some years ago it was said by some and
believed by many that Memorial Day would
not long be observed, and indications were
found of neglect of its sad ceremonies. II
was thought memories of the civil war were
weakening and that the beautiful custom of
decorating the graves of the patriotic dead
would be speedily abandoned. The prophets
have been put to shame. There is every
where apparent a quickening Of interest in
the history of the Rebellion. Its literature
is swelling to formidable proportions. The
press teens with "reminiscences of the nota-
BILE battles, and accounts even Of insignii-
cant skirmishes are read with eagerness.
The national legislature is heapipg bounties
upon the fortunate survivors Of the Union
armies, and all over the Northern land mon
uments of bronze and stone are springing up
in testimony of nations gratitude to the
brave men who gave their lives for its defense.
This anniversary will be more widely OBJ
served than ever before. Addresses will be
delivered and memorial tributes bestowed in
every considerable town. And, though the
sharpness of first grief has been considerably
mitigated and the fever of war has burned
out, the sense of gratitude to those who
served as sword and buckler has become
deeper and more intense as the value of the
service they did and the magnitude of the
danger they averted are more clearly recog-
nized. We understand now more clearly even
than in the days after Appomattax, the tram
scendent worth of the Union, and time but
strengthens our gratitude to its preservers.
To-day we give praise to the living and the
dead of the patriot armies of the Republic.

Magazine Notices

The first number of the Sixty-ffth Volume
of Harper's Magazine fully sustains the we'll
earned reputation of that periodical both by
the interest of its reading matter and the charm
of its illustrations. The reader will naturally
turn first to George William Curtis's paper an
article on Longfellow. There could be no finer
Interpretation of Longfellow's poetic genius or
of his character than is given in this article,
which is accompanied by an excellent portrait,
printed separately on heavy paper. The from
tispiece of the Number is an exquisite engrav-
ing of Abbey's drawing, illustrating poem by
Robert Herrick. The Editors Easy Chair con-
tains graceful tribute to Herrick's poetry,
and to the illustrations of it which Mr. Abbey
has been from time to time contributing to the
pages of the Magazine; and 1t is there an
nounced that these drawings are to be publish
ed hereafter in book form, with selections from
Herricks Hesperides. Quaint Old Yarmouth is
the subject Of an interesting descriptive article
by William FL. Rideing, with seventeen graphic
and picturesque illustrations drawn by Harry
Fem. Mary Treat contributes paper entitled
In the Pines, describing the spring flowers pc
culiar to Southern New Jersey, charmingly il
Illustrated by William Hamilton Gibson. Eu-
gene L. Didier writes about Old Baltimore soci-
ety-a subject of picturesque interest, apar
from the value of the biographical sketches.
The article is illustrated from portraits and old
miniatures. The Father of the Pueblos, by
Sylvester Baxter, is an article of timely inter-
est in connection with the recent visit 70 the
East of Frank 81. Gushing and the Zufi Chiefs
Commander Allan d. Brown, U. S. N, con-
tributes q clear, historical sketch of the devel-
opment, during and since the war, of the tor
pedo as a weapon of offensive and defensive
warfare, with illustrations. James jackson

THE Postmaster General sent to the House
recently a statement relating to the mail SER
vice, declaring that in his opinion postage
ought to be abolished on second-class mat
ter. This will add, he says, to the cost of
the service and diminish the revenue about
81, SOC, 900, but he is sanguine from present
appearances that the surplus at the end of
the present fiscal year will be about equal to
that sum- During the past year saving
has been effected in the service over the
Star routes of at least 81, 700, 900; and very
nearly the whole of the star and steamboat
service has been readjusted and relet for the
next four years, from July 1, at reduced
cost of over a million dollars below the pres
emit cost. If his estimates are realized more
than the whole deficit of June, 1881, 49,
481, 1921 will be saved. The increase of mail
matter will increase the cost of transporta-
ton, but the Postmaster General says that
while expenditures are diminishing revenues
are increasing.

Nor one public man in Great Britain en-
joys the position in which that country is
put by the rebellion in Egypt, and not one
knows how the country can get out of the
scrape creditably. The Pail Mall Gazette'
usually consistent advocate of non-inter-
ference, almost out-jingoes Disraeli in de-
claring that France is the only obstacle to
the exercise of pressure by England which
would crush the instruction in short order,
and asserting that, though "Lord Granville
will no doubt sacrifice much to purchase
the cooperation of France there is yet ga
point beyond which he can not and ought
not to go' But even this is not equivalent
to saying that it does net regret the circum-
stance of the Gladstone Government having
the dirty Egyptian mess to deal with. This
is the present state of things: Both Eng
land and France are pledged to keep the
Khedive on his throne. But for their active
or passive interference, Arab Bey, the head
of the revolt, who is the most powerful man
in Egypt, would depose the Khedive, and
make himself dictator, almost in the twink
lingo an eye. Active military aid for the
Khedive must come from his suZerain, the
Turk, the English and French holding
aloof. But the landing of Turkish force
in Egypt would increase the authority of the
Sultan in that country. This France is
bound to resist SO far as possible, though
England has no objection to it. According
to the present outlook France will ultimate
~ permit Turkish assistance to be brought
to the Khedive. Whether fresh complica-
tons between the European powers will en-
sue is uncertain.

THE Virginia Liberals come out of the
town and city elections with bands playing
and colors flying. They win decisive victo-
ries in Petersburg, the home of Senator Ma
hone and Governor Cameron; in Woodstock,
the home of Senator-elect Riddleberger; in
Norfolk, the home of General Groner, one of
the ablest of the anti Bourbon leaders, and
elsewhere In Norfolk Groner is elected to
Common Council by 500 majority. All the
officers of that city, except the Mayor, have
heretofore been Bourbons, and now there is
clean sweep. Nearly everywhere there are
Liberal gains. The Massey detection and
the straightout opposition have had no APP
preciable effect on a movement which APP
peals to the immense anti-Bourbon element
of Virginia.

In Count Won Beust's retirement from
Paris Germany gets rid of powerful and
sagacious enemy. Count Beust was the
Austrian Premier in 1866, when war was
declared against Prussia. A native OF Sax
oDy, and from infancy trught to execrate the
rapacity and faithlessness of the Prussians,
Won Beust was as much as any one man the
cause of the war. He remained in the Cab
met after the disaster only long enough to
rescue the Empire from dismemberment;
then, on the fall of the Empire, he succeed
ed Prince Metternich as Ambassador at Par
is. Here he was constantly under Prussian
espionage, but has never been made culpa-
BILE in the way Prince Bismark would have
liked to catch him. His retirement from
the mission is significant of change in the
French policy of the Austro-H Hungarian EN-

A CURIOUS explanation of the recent
chilly weather has been suggested. Contra
ry to the general rule that fall in the tenn
perature is originated in the western prai-
ries, this unreasonable chilliness has been
accompanied by easterly winds, and the the
ory IS preached that it may be attributed to
the vast fields of floating ice which SO many
transatlantic steamers have encountered.
There may be something in that idea, for,
according to all accounts the quantity of ice
now adrift in the shape of foes and icehergs
upon the western Atlantic is enormous be-
vond precedent.

Jew 1sh Names in German Lands.
The curious names of the German Jews must
always be of interest to any one with even a
slight knowledge of German. I recall party
in Jewish house, in Frankfort, where neerly
every person presented to me bore the name of
bird, beast or fowl. 1t was an amusing collec-
ton of hens, bears, VOLTS, foxes-indeed, it was
difficult to find bird of the air or a beast of
the field not represented. How the German
Jews came by these names is interesting, and
possibly is not known to everybody. Under
Maria Theresa, when great numbers had gone
TO Austria because of her liberation, there was
constant confusion arising from the fact THAT
it was hardly possible to hold an individual for
ny crime, or in case of lawsuit-af VII ich
there were many against them for the reason
that a man could not be proven to be the
s'Isaac, the son of Israel" or the particular
Solomon, the son of jacob who was sought
for. So one day that empress sent forth an
edict to the effect that from that time hence
forth every Jew should take name for him
sells and no name borne ever by any one else
was he to select This provoked much anger,
but there was nothing to be done but obey.
The command was, that they should choose
names from the animals, metals, minerals, the
elements, rivers lakes, towns, etc. Hence
came the Bears, VOLTS, Fuchs Qox), Hahns
(cock), Hechts (pickereD, and nearly all the
names ending with baum (tree), and stein
(stone) and himnaeE (heaven). Some of the
combinations growing out of this command are
very interesting. For instance, we find Ecks-
tein (corner-stone), Selgman (biessed-maD).
Himmelreich (kingdom of heaveD), Fleischman
(meat-man). Mandelbaum (almond-tree), Grun-
baum (green-tree), Rosenbaum (rose-tree),
Veigelstock austrian dialect for gilly-fower
bush), Braun (brown), Schwarz (black), Weiss
(White). From cities and rivers are the Jewish
names, SO common, Openheimer, Moldauer,
Erlanger, Wiener, Pariser, DINER, Donau. We
have also Rotnschild (red sign), Honigfeld
(honey field), etc. 1t will be seen that Ger
man Jew is known by his name. OF late there
have been notifications and changes made by
families who do not wish to be so readily dis
tinguished, but it is always easy to trace them.
