A Fit Comment.

New York, April 19.-The Times,
commenting on the passage of the new
Chinese bill, says: The objections were
made before to the proposition to try
twenty years prohibition, then fifteen,
then ten, or five, as this was declaring
that cutting OF the dogs tail in short
pieces was not so scientific an operation
as one hnal amputation would be. The
house, however, has decided that the
dog may like it better to have the cut
ting process proceed by installments.

Charleston, s. c., April 1.-two
white jurors in the election cases came
into court this morning and stated that
they signed the verdict Saturday under
misapprehension and in duress of bodi

avowal came too late and the defend
ants excepted and made a motion for a
new trial. Judge Bond overruled the
motion to quash the array of the grand
jury on the ground that the talisman
had been Illegally drawn.

A House Lit by a Waterfall.


 Much curiosity has been felt among scien- tifc men as to the result of Sir William Arm strong's experience in lighting his own house in Scotland by the electric light supplied by the agency of 8 waterfall. Sir Willi&nn Armstrong gave recently an interesting &C., count to the Institution of Civil Engineers of his experience during nearly year and the remarks which he made on the subject have just been privately circulated, in Rntici- patton of their publication in the ensuing quarterly volume of the proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers The source of power employed Is 8 force or cascade nearly a mile from Sir William Armstronzsg house, in connection with which he has erect ed a turbine from which he obtains seven horse power. The light is directly produced by the driving of the edynamo-electric machine from this turbine, and the only cost beyond interest on machinery is renewals in the pay of the laborer who attends upon the machine at night After repeated trials-Ehich prov ed unsatisfactory-of the arc system, Sir William Armstrong adopted the Swan in candeScent arrangement. He has thirty pairs of lamps, each single lamp yielding much light as an ordinary duplex kerosene lamp, which is usually estimated at twenty five candles. The lamps supplied by the company are somewhat variable in their dur ability but with further experience this drawback will no doubt be overcome The delicacy of the system is illustrated by the fact that while leather belts made in the usual way were employed to drive the Rener- stor, each revolution produced a slight twinkle in the light when the joint of fhe belt ran over the pulley. To obtain uniforms- ty it was necessary to use endless belt, made like flat chain, of leather links stamp ed out of the sheet and joined by pins; a form of belt which g1yes very regular mo- ton. It is probable that in most if not all cases where water Is employed as the motive power, the introduction of an sccum1lAtor will be found desirable in order to insure perfect steadiness of hght. The economy of the method is very great and Sir William Armstrong stated that no deficiency of either candle-power or endurance in the lamps woald induce him to abandon the system. The incandescent light has no connection with the atmosphere, and has, therefore. no contaminating effect. It has very little heating effect, is perfect in color, and is re- garded by Sir William Armstrong as the ger fectlon of lighting for domestic purposes. A private experiment of this nature, made by a competent engineer for his own personal comfort, has a value which it is needless to dwell upon

He was rather fond not only of asparagus, but of anything good to eat, and whenever he was sent some delcacy in that line he enjoyed it in advance by unpacking it himself, and then he used to say with delighted looks: ''Voils a quoi Ia gloire est bonne" His visitors gone or not gone, at 12 he put on his wig which until then lay quietly on the table, his big bald head being covered with towel for the time being then he drssed, and by 1 o'clock every day he was out; he took the first cab he met and asked him 'tEst-ce que Uos c5eU- qua s0at tdttgues ?"

Representative Candler, of Massachusetts, IS said to be endeavoring to impress his fel- low members with the importance of accom- .plishing certain legislation concerning fnan- cial matters before Congress adjourns. MT. Candler has been talking with New York and Boston business men, and has returned to Washington anxious to have Congress do something to improve the business outlook.
 Mir. Candler points out that symptoms of stagnation are appearing in all departments of business. Money is plenty, and cities borrowing in Boston on time at 34 per cent. Demand loans are as low as 2 per cent. In western cities there is said to be hundred millions of idle capital Recently Chicago placed bonds paying G. at a premium. This proves that there is no lack of money. The trouble is, says Mir. Candler, there is want of confidence and a feeling of apprehension in the community. To relieve capital of dis trust and encourage new enterprise MT. Candler thinks Congress should produce some prompt and wise legislation. He says: We ought to pass the bank charter bill, the bill to stop the coinage of silver, the abolition of all bank taxes and some in ernal revenue taxes, and I think the small tariff that has been suggested. Now it is possible to accom- plish three of these measures by persistent effort, and I have been urging upon gen. tlemen on our side of the house the ne cessity of doing this york; and of doing it before Congress adjourns. In my judgment it will be political mistake to adjourn with out accomplishing these things" Upon be- ing asked whether he thought Congress could be induced to stop the coinage of short-weight silver dollars now, he said per haps not, but the attempt ought to be made. Perhaps it could not be brought to do it be- fore the commercial and mercantile world becomes embarrassed, as it certainly will be soon, by the export of gold, and every class of the community feels the pinch of the financial disaster which shrewd business men plainly perceive to be imminent, unless Congress does something to ward of the peril.
 The situation may not be as doleful as Mr. Candler makes it out to be, but there is cer- tainly reason in what he says about it. and most business men would agree with him in his idea of the importance of the legislation proposed. But that it would make business ''hum" again immediately is not certain. It would without doubt encourage the specula- tors.

cumulation is virtually the standard of
 scholarship; the routine and "the letter.
 have slowly obscured the end to be attained, and one of the means to that end, and that, too, the most laborious, has been substituted in it's place; and that intellectual develop ment, moral discipline, the formation of characters, are left to the chance outcome of memorized branches of study, which is too often mere memory of words. 'Instruc- tion," he added, (which is merely task of the memory, must be fatiguing drudgery to the pupil, lifeless and narrowing to the teacher. It leaves the scholar in the end with the most limited benefit from his severe tasks, and instead of implanting a love of knowledge creates rspugnance for and a disgust with books of an improving charac- ter. Indeed, the individuals time is sadly wasted ,and the purpose for which the schools are maintained in a great measure defeated. The principal of the normal school, in his report, calls attention to the report of the teacher of that school whose duty it is to re- ceive the subjects of the lower school, in which she says: The majority of the pupils show lamentable ignorance of the elemen- tary branches If this is the condition of children who have been promoted to the nor nal school, what has the vast number learn ed who leave school at the end of the pri- mary course ?"

Rossini's hI sthod.


 He lived then in the Rue Bssse du Rem part, 8 street which has nearly disappeared now but he soon settled down in those larg- CT apartments at the corner of the Boulevard des Italiens and the Rue de Ia Chaussee d'Antin, in which he lived to the day of his death. I must, for the clear understanding of what follows, give slight description of these apartments. From the ante room you entered the dining room, a moderate sized oblong table to seat II people filling it nearly wholly. To the right of 1t was the drawing room where on Saturday nights the famous soirees were given, which brought together celebrities of every class or section of politics, art, science, or financial position; to the left was his studio-in fact, his bed room-a square little place, containing bed, a writing table, Pleyel piano and ward robe full of perishable linen and his imperish- able manuscripts. On the little table in his bedroom he wrote them-on the big dining room table the copyist copied them, because he never allowed . manuscript to go out of his house. It Is certainly incredible that he should have written the Barber of Seville'' in l5 days, not that there can be the slightest doubt about the spontaneity of the melodies streaming quicker into his pen than out of it, but precisely because, although writing very fast, he had way of rounding the head ot the notes, which took time, and writing an operatic score in fortnight does not allow of many wasted minutes. Yet another in stance of quick slow writing was Alexandre Dumas q mean the father He wrote his novels on long half sheets, and he was beside himself with happiness when l brought him some large English plotting paper, in sheets bigger than his own writing paper, which he had only to turn over to dry it at once. He wrote wonderfully handsome hand, very long letters, and seemingly slowly, as if printed, yet one leaf covered after another in next to no time. Donizetti wrote quickly, to such an extent that when l saw him write for the first time I did not think he was writing music. He had a knack of covering the pages with dots like telegraph strip, and when be had done so he added the tails and lines Rossini used to set to work at 10 o'clock in the morning, having got up at g. His toilet took half an hour, his break fast house gossip, 6c., another halt-hour ; then he took his pen and wrote continuously. From 10 to l2, while he wrote, numbers of people came; some with letters of introduc tion, or old friends, and so on. He was very glad to make the acquaintance of talented young artists he received them with i'm mense kindness, giving them advice, and sometimes letters. But what he absolutely hated was to be stared at as one of the sights | of Paris Once his old friend Caraffa came | and told him There is a Russian Princess | on the boulevard who waited two hours yes terday to see you pass she wants SO much | to make your acquaintance.

A Conundrum for the Connecticut Civil
 Service Reform Association.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 Some time since Civil Service Reform association was formed in this State. It was under the auspices of some of the brightest names in both parties, Joseph R. Hawley, Richard D. Hubbard, Noah Porter, Jeremiah Halsey, c. B. Andrews, S. E. Baldwin and many others prominent in political and edu- cational life. Under the belief that these men, if any, could be trusted to carry out the letter and spirit of reform, l subscribed my name to the sound principles enunciated, Now then, here we have 8 wholesale and open attempt to levy political contributions, emsnating from the Republican Congression- al committee, of Washington, even laborers and call boys being requested Cor required) to pay some two per cent. on their wages, and Messrs. Allison, Hale, Aldrich, Hiscock and other ''notables" being reported as en- gagged in the work of solicitation. A promi- nent Republican Congressman is reported as saying of the civil service reform Repubh- cans that: Such of them as are in office will pay up like little men, and the rest of them will growl little to keep their charac- ter and then turn in and help the party. All civil service reformers are all right. Atter 01l election h1s been carried they always begin to make fuss about their reform, but when a new campaign opens they shut up and vote the ticket "
 The previous convention of Reformers in this city was a comparatively eheaP exhibi- tion. Everyone was thsn ready to deplore the death of President Garfield and to raise the shibboleth of reform. But now when the time of action is come, when such con vention with its uncompromising principles would check corrupt influences and do honor to the courage and sincerity of old Connecti- cut, strengthening the hands of integrity throughout the country, what will our prom inent Republican reformers do r? I do not wish to be premature. There is yet time. The power of calling a convention is vested in select committee. Shall we hear their call, or are they like the 'children of EphraIm, who being harnessed and carrying bows, turned themselves back in ths day of battle 2" It is a fair question
