RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

The total of the gifts of the LATE
Miss Sarah Gage, of Boston, to the
Universalist Church, 1t is said, will con-
siderably exceed 800, 200. .. .H
The new building for Trinity Col
lege, Hartford, Conn, erected by be-
quest of the late Charles H. Northam,
is to be called "Northam Towers
During the past year, the Con-
gregational churches of the Hampden
(Mass.) Conference have contributed
upward of S39, 900 to benevolent OBJ
jects. ...
Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, has
an annual income of $57, 900. And yet
Mr.. Beecher says all beggars 60 there.
Evidently, allwho go there are not beg
gars. ...I ....a
Seventeen female missionaries have
been sent by the Church of England
Missionary, Society to India to labor
among the Hindoo women. Four of
these have been there before.
The new University library build
ing of Washington and Lee University
is rapidly approaching completion. II
will be finished and ready for occupa-
ton before the June commencement.
The Friends of New York City re-
port AN increase of 199 members above
all losses during the past year. This
unusual gain is ascribed to the influence
of revival meetings, which are now per-
mitted to be held. .I,.i fr '1.i
M. Gambetta is said to be passion
ately fond of teaching, and the various

tion he has thought out. He believes
emphatically in the higher education for
girls. He thinks that physiology should
be taught in the primary schools, and he
is bringing out work upon this subject
which is. to be sold for twenty cents.
Among the speakers at the late an
nual Conference of the Dakota Indian
Congregational Churches was chief
named Gray Cloud. He was sentenced
to be hanged for his part in the out
break of 1862, but was pardoned by
President Lincoln, and is now one of
the most active Christian ministers in
that region. These churches have a
membership of 800, with ten pastors
Their contributions average nearly
dollar month from each individual.
AN English lady-Mrs. Arabella
King, of Kentish Town-recently de-
ceased, has bequeathed to the church
wardens of st. Georges in the East,
f300, the interest of which is to be de-
voted to the purchase of coats and
cloaks for the benefit of poor old people
sttending the parish church. The same
itestator leaves fl00, the dividends
from which are to be applied to provide
"a dinner of roast beef and plum pud-
ding every Christmas day for children
attending the parish church, A stipu-
lation is that such dinner is not to in
clude any alcoholic drink.

How the Washington Court is Opened

All courts are to the laity queer places
There is a certain amount of ceremony
and procedure which, to the casual
looker-on, has neither rhyme nor rea-
son. As an instance, will cite their
"calling" of a defendant or plaintiff
when it is well known that he is absent
and cannot possibly respond, but he is
" "called,' and the record is made up
against him. The peculiar formula
used in opening court is another thing,
and here in Washington it is wonderful
ly queer. just imagine before the
court begins any business whatever
(and we who are attending the Guiteau
trial hear it every day, and everybody
knows there is no other business but
that before the court), a man of me-
dunn size but with lungs like the bull
of Bashan, steps up to the edge of the
Judges desk. taps with his knife-handle,
and in voice that could be distinctly
heard in hall of twenty thousand,
calls out: Come to order, gentlemen;
hats off" He waits moment, glances
around the courtroom, lays his left el-
bow on the desk, straightens himself,
drops his head upon his breast, closes
his, eyes, fills his lungs with several
cubic feet of air, and then he says, in
volume of voice as big as the British
cyclopedia: Y" Ho-o-o-o-h yees." He
pauses and gathers his breath again,
and the second flood of sound rolls out:
""Ho-o-o-o-h yees." Those who are ac-
customed to it turn to those who
are strangers in the courtroom, and
say: ''How's that for voceP' And
the answer is: why, he could be heard
a mile" Meanwhile the crier is swell
ing up for the next laundering utter
ance, and he belches out: y Ho-o-o-o h
yees." He pulls in mighty breath
and bellows: "Sa-w-w1 pers sa-awing
bees mis-for' thou bull j,i-u-dge S'preme
Court th'dees stricklum." He gathers
himself again, his chest expands, his
eyes close, and he goes on: ''Na-a-a-
ould dingscrimnal term" Another
gathering of Borean forces and: ''Draw-
aw-aw near, gun give yer ten Ounce the
courts nav penp' AS he utters the last
part the thunder runs suddenly down to
zephyr all muddled in together, and
he is halfway down the steps.
1t took one man Che was from Ohio)
four days to translate the crier's conun-
drum. BY those who know what his
business is, to-wit, to open Court, no eff
fort is made to guess whether he is call
ing ''oldrags" or .'s-o-o-ap. They
let him wind up and run down, and
then go to business, The result of a
careful investigation showed that the
call never varies. Like the cogs in a
wheel, the words move in the same
groove every time. When the Ohioan
had finally wrestled the conundrum out,
he found il read as follows: 40 ye, o We,
o ye, all persons having business before

Court OF the District OF Columbia, now
holding its criminal term draw near and

THE ECCENTRIC KING OF BAVARIA.

The present King Louis, who is sup
posed to reside in his palace at Munich,
but who is seldom ever seen here, in
stead of following in the footsteps of his
illustrious predecessors as a patron and
lover of art, turns his attention almost
entirely to music. BY many he is

-One of the natives Of New Mexic,

--One of the natives of New Mexico
took anew departure in the matter OF
agricultural implements. Instead of
the sharpened stick Of his forefathers,
he bought an improved American plow
and broke up his land. But a lack of
rain caused a failure of the crop. Sohe
went. back to the plow of his daddies,
sprlnkled the ground with holy water,
and the rain came and produced an
abundant yield. Since then that neigh

Qverwork Of the Brain.

One of the greatest gifts to man is q
great intellect. The power of achieving
is mighty power. AS says the poet,
The mind forgss from knowledge an
arch-ange's spear, and thus com pels
The world and sues for empire" Brain
the universe. The men of brain are the
men who conquer success. They always
carry about with them the unmistaka.
BILE lndtces of success. such men are
brimful OF enterprise, activity and or.
ganizing power. They are the leaders
and commanders among men. Such
men, of necessity, use up a large meas
ure of nervous energy. They live, as 1t
were, on their prin cipal. They exhaust
the vital forces. Muscular activity and
travel do not prove remedial, from the
simple fact that they always take their
brains along with them, and keep them
at work on their favorlte projects just as
constantly as when in their offices at
home. The brain and body are not
rivals; they are copartners. 1t matters
not how nor wher0 a thinking man
WORKS; whether at his desk giving dir &C.
lions, or at the forefront of mechanical
enterprise, actually handling the tools
and appliances, his brain works all the
same. The thinking man is never still.
His business is to rule. His character is
inalienable.
"For Just experience shows in every soil,
That those who think must govern
those who toll"
Now, the great question is how to REIN
force and replenish these mighty work
ers whose brains are challenged to the
uttermost and whose vital forces pay
out the drafts made upon them in such
large and rapid installments, What re.
creating process Is there against the
wear to which their daily life constant
ly subjects them? tt is vital questi on.

WASHINGTON, February o.
The President and Cabinet have,
so it is semi-ofiicialIy announced,
decided in favor of the restoration
of Fitz John Porter to the army
The only question in connection
with the case that is undecided is
as to Porter's back pay. When
cashiered he held the rank of Colo.
mel of the regular army and as
Mel or-General of Volunteers. The
question is now whether his back
pay as Msjor.General would accrue
to him up to his reinstatement, or
whether it would terminate in 1865,
when the other Major Generals
were mustered out of service. The
question has been referred to the
Attorney-Genersl. The President
will nominate Porter as Colonel of
Infantry to fill the first vacancy,
and Porter will probably ask to be
relieved.

Nerve & Brain Treatment.

The world moves, and science moves
along with it. Every year some new dis
covery Is made which mitigates the ills
of Lille and lightens the burden of hu-
man woe. Medical science is ever at
work seeking to repair the damages con-
| stantly recurring TO poor human crea-
| tures.. What is better still. 1T is the aim
OF medical science to go ahead and pre-
vent disease altogether. This Is its no.
blest aim. OF late years the best thought
| OF MEDICAL science has been directed to-
ward the prevention and cure OF nerve
and brain diseases.
Probably In the entire range of rene.
dial agencies of this character nothing
has ever been presented to the pu bile
| that has wrought such wonderful cures
| as has the nerve and brain treatment of
Dr. Il. y. West. 1t has come to be known
all over the land as an unfailing specific
| for all Kinds of mental maladies, from
an aggravated headache to incipient pa
ralysls. 1t has been tested by thousands
upon thousands of sufferers, whose un-
bounded JOY and gratitude could be
given in voluntary testimonials from
| every part of The country.
THE RATIONALE OF THE TREAT
MENT.
DR.. West, in his treatment of the brain
and nerves, proce eds upon the principle
that The brain has Its pathological anat-
omy. exactly as all the organs OF the hui
man economy have, and the pathology
of the brain has its special series OF
symptoms, just as other organs have
theirs. II all the varied disturbances of
brain and nerve are not yet understood
1t Is because the means Of Investigation
are as yet imperfect. But DR.. West has
m AIDE the subject profound study. and
by scientific analysis and experiments
has discovered remedy, which. by re-
establishing the normal organic condi.
tlon of the brain and nerves, restores
their function and brings them into a
state OF health and activity.
LOSS OF MEMORY AND HOW TO
CURE IT.
1t has been said that one of the surest
signs OF waning mental power is the loss
Of memory. This is often caused by
overwork, and by some great and sud-
den afhictiOn. We all cherish the bright
jewels Of memory. We delight to revive
the dear old times, and in 'our memo
flowers in water. those bright and happy
days" To any and all who feel that
memory Is failing we commend this
marvellous brain and nerve treatment OF
DR.. h. G. West.
It may be asked how this remedy acts,
We simply say, 1t has been compounded
on the principle that sound body is
the foundation OF sound mind. Its
primal work is to restore physical integ.
rity. We too often exalt the mental at
the expense of the physical. Yet 1t is a
fact that the man who can best carry
the burden of life looks we'll to the no.
Bile temple of the body, The mind does
its best work when the machinery of the
body runs without friction.
