A New statue of Washington.

The colossal bronze statue of Wash
ington, which is to be placed in Fair
mount Park by the Society of Cincinnati
of Philadelphia, is to have a substruc-
ture of granite with two great terraces.
The sides of the lower terrace are
to be covered with bronze relieves,
in which groups of animals and
human figures larger than life are
shown. The animals are to be typical
American beasts, and VIII be placed In
recumbent positions In the midst Of
the groups viii be an Indian warrior and
squaw, river god and river goddess.
On the upper terrace the pedestal viii
stand. The figures of the horse and
rider which it viii support viii be twice
the ordinary size Washington win be
represented in uniform, with military
cloak thrown over the shoulder.
The right hand grasps a field
glass, while the left holds the bride
rein. The sides of the bronze pedestal
will represent allegorical figures of the
troops departing for war, the return and
the blessings OF peace. Professor Ru-
dolph Siemering, the German sculptor,
to whom the contract for statue was
awarded, has completed the miniature
model of the monument, and has begun
work in Berlin upon the fdll-sized figure,
from which the cast viii be made. The
cost when completed viii be $40, 600.

A Sleepy King.


Louis, the handsome but eccentric
young king of Bavaria, cannot, as Is
well known. endure to attend a play or
opera C..iess he alone constitutes the
entire audience. A short time ago he
was indulging this strange taste at the
Court theatre, Munich, when he fell
asleep in the midst of play. Here was
a dilemma. The play could not go on
with the audience asleep, and nobody
dared rouse him, nor dared the actors
for moment leave their places, for fear
of his displeasure, should he chance to
awaken suddenly. One impatient ac-
tress threw a chair across the stage with
a crash. and an actor repeated several
lines OF his part in stentorian tones; but
still the king slept on. Thus everything
was at standpoint for several hours,
until, next morning, the king awoke and
the wearied actors finished the play just
in time for breakfast.

Tea Authorizations.

The ingenuity of the Chinese is taxed
to adulterate tea before it reaches our
shores. 1t will be remembered that at
the Centennial Exhibition IN Philadelphia
samples of plants were shown which
were used by the Chinese in the adulter-
alton of tea. This adulteration by leaves
of plants is, of course, not injurious.
Willow leaves are often used, and are
frequently found in tea to the extent of
twenty per cent. As they cost about four
cents a pound, it can be readily seen how
great is the temptation to employ them.
Parhaps the most common form of adul-
taration is the addition of coloring mat
TOR IN face the leaves, as it is called.
Prussian blue, indigo. turmerle, kaoln;
soapstone. graphite, etc. have been used
to irnpart the glossy color OF tea-leaVes-
,rannin and salts of iron are sometimes
added to spent tea-leaves to restore their
color and other properties. There is a
,oo,lar business. we are told, in this city
New York; of purchasing spent tea
leaves from large hotels and other es-
tshlisbments. and renovating them to be
afterward sold again
IRON filings are about the only thing
hot i nsed to make weight in tea, with
The exception of the leaves above men,
toned. Metallic iron, or iron hilngs'
NAV be detected by stirring up the tea
With a common horseshoe magnet. to
which the particles of iron will attach
tba1nselves. One sample of tea (?) an
alvzed by chemist in London contained
the following ingredients: iron, plumba-
oo chalk. china clay, sand, indigo,
SSsrmeric. Prussian blue, starch, gum,
gvnsum. catechu; with the leaves of the
hawthorn, oak, elm. alder, beech, willow.
nonlar and other plants Most adulter-
sation of tea can only be discovered by a
careful analysis. Sometimes by exam
;n;no the leaves after sleeping and COM
earring with those known TO be from the
fea-piant we can get an idea whether a
TEA is adulterated or not --Christaa''

Waiting TO sec the traveller come:
Naught he wiiiteu OF distant lands;
He can not even press their hands,
He has no stories weird and bright;
He has no gifts for "A child's delight,
He did not come with anything.
He had not even himself to bring.
Yet they will softly him await,
And he will move about in state:
They will give him, when he appears.
Love and pity, and tender tears.
Only box, secure and strong,
Rough and wooden. and six feet long,
Angels guide that Souliess breast
Into long and peaceful rest!
