Anhasia.

In the latter part of his life Mr.. EN-
erson was afflicted with aphasia-a
paralysis of the nerves or brain cells, on
which depends the power to control the
speech. Everybody is familiar with the
difficulty, for everybody knows at times
what it is 10 vainly try to utter some
familiar word or name. In Emerson's
casa it was mainly an impossibllity of
speaking PERSONS names. He knew the
person well enough could describe him
vactly, had perfectly clear notion of

FACTS AND COMMENTS.

The farmers in the border counties
of Arkansas and Missouri have dis
covered an excellent remedy for the
horse-thiet evil. They have pitted
organization against organization, and
when band OF marauders visit their
vicinity they combine in pursuit, re-
gardless of State lines, and hang such
thieves as they can capture and shoot
such as are in danger Of escaping. Asa
consequence, the Jesse James style of
business is getting unpopular down in
that region, and the farmers manage to
keep I'll cir horses.
Frank Mason, one of the robbers of
the Brookfleld (Missouri) bank, says he
was impelled to it by the news he heard
from his father, a California farmer.
whose property was mortgaged aud who
was being slowly dragged to the grave
by his misfortunes. The son was deter
mined to relieve him at any cost short
of blood shed, and he thought by robbing
the bank he could secure enough to pay
his fathers Indebtedness, leaving him
to suppose that it came out of his sons
earnings. His poor fathers misfortunes
have not been much relieved.
M. Dumas, the perpetual president Of
the French Academy, has been in.
structed by the minister of the interior
to make return of all persons who
have been killed or manned in pursuit
of scientific research. 1t is the desire
of the French government to make
some compensation for such casualties
which have hitherto been disregarded.
Some time since, says the Photo. Neps,
we remember meeting NJ. Henri Pellet,
whose blue-lined copying process is so
we'll known, and sympathizing with
him on the loss of the fingers of one
hand, which he had sustained through
experiments with gun-cotton and nitro
glycerine, "I suppose you will give
up explosives, now," was our remark.
Our friend laughingly shook his head !:
!" l have my other hand STILL" he cried,
holding it up.

not know where she spent the night; she
denied drinking anything, and did not
seem to realize her position.
At the New York hotel it was learned
that she first engaged rooms there in
August last, having been highly recom-
mended by people presumably friends of
her husband. She was looked upon as
q highly educated, cultured but some
what eccentric lady. A few days after
she came to the hotel she began indulg-
ing heavily in stimulants, drinking
everything from lager beer to cham
payne. Protracted dissipation weakened
her so that the greater portion of her
time was spent in bed, and as it was
known that she carried diamonds and
jewelry of great value about her, the
house detective, d. J. Larkins, was in
structed to keep special watch over her.

Not q Flattering Exhibit.

It is sometimes difficult not to ques-
tion the reality of modern progress, and
to ask whether it is not in the main Q
sham. Take little illustration which
has just come under notice: Herbert
Spencer, in carrying out his elaborate
system of PHILOSOPHY, gathered together
a vast mass of sociological observations
and phenomena, which he caused to be
arranged systematically in the most CON-
venient order for reference, and which
he published in eight folio parts, at Q
very moderate price. Yet, though there
is abundance of talk about social science
in these days, and though Herbert Spen-
GERS Descriptive Sociology" contained
the most necessary and invaluable infor-
nation appertaining to that branch Of
human knowledge, it was found impos-
sible to sell the book in sufficient num-
bers to avoid loss. In this country, in
fact, the sale was so restricted that
after the third number, the APP
pletons refused to reproduce them.
On this one work Mr.. Spen-
Ger has incurred positive
loss OF sixteen thousand dollars, for he
had to publish it at his own expense.
Now when we reflect that great fortunes
are made by the publication Of flash
papers, dime novels, the most abomina-
bic literary trash, and that the New'York
Weekly, q vehicle Of kitchen romance,
has larger circulation than any journal
in the United States. it is impossible TO
retain the conviction that the progress of
the age is as rapid - is commonly pre-
tended. And such facts as we have cited
are trustworthy evidence Of the actual
nature of the intellectual situation. The
literature people buy to suit themselves,
not to satisfy mere fashion. The New
York Weekly and the dime novels. and
the flash paper show the intellectual
level of tho majority, and assuredly il is
very little in advance of that of GEN.
tury ago.

A preliminary examination convinced
all parties of the guilt of Van Haven,
but did not exonerate Lacy from COM
plicity in the affair. Tho subsequent
investigation, however, fastened the
guilt upon two parties--Van Haven and
James Thomspon, an Orrville man,
with whom the former had baen on terms
of suspicious intimacy.
OF course, all redress was made to Mr.

pie concerning him, and was accepted

former, the sum Of $40 600. and to the
latter the sam of S15. 900, and that he

applause and good feeling elected by
these remarks-that is left to the imagi-

No clamorous declarations OF gratitude
were maids by either of the recipients of

A Mover In . Paragraph.

A number OF years ago some miners in
Wales, in exploring an old pit that had
long been closed, found the body Of .
young man dressed in fashion long ont
of date. The peculiar action of the air
of the mine was such as to preserve the
body so perfectly that il appeared asleep
rather than dead. The miners were
puzzled at the circumstance. No one in
the district had been missed within their
recollection and at last it was resolved to
bring the oldest inhabitant--an old lady
long past her S0th year, who had lived
single in the village all her life. On be-
ing taken into the presence Of the body
Q very strange scene occurred. The old
lady fell upon the corpse and kissed il
and addressed il by every term Of en-
dearment spoken in byegone generations.
He was her old love and she waited for
him during her long life. She know he
had not forsaken her. The old lady and
young man had been betrothed 60 years
before. The lover had disappeared mys-
terously aud she had kept her faith dur
ing the long interval. The miners ~
moved the old lady 70 her house and
that night her faithful spirit rsjoinsd
