Certificate of His Own Death.

lf1oAa suo oaNeetUu NcNB.l
We learn from parties direct from
Richmond, Ark, that Joe Young, the
negro who was hung in that place on The
10th ult., is not dead, but alive and in q
fair way to recovery. Young had fall
of seven feet, hung then fully twenty
minutes, and wat. duly pronounced dead
by the attending physicians, although
ut the time theneck was stated to be not
broken. In the afternoon subsequent
to the hanging signs OF life were thought
by some one present to be observed IN
the body, whereupon restoratives were
at once brought TO bear, and after
some thirty-six or forty hours the corpse
had SO far recovered as to be able to
speak. At present be lis able to speak
and take nourishment, but his neck IS
in a fearfully swollen condition. The
isheriff's certificate of the execution up
on the prisoner of the death Judgment
of the courts has been duly filed, and q
second hanging is, of course, ont Of tho
question.

] JAPANESE.

A gentleman, who from long residence
at Toxic. is well informed in Japanese
matters, says the people of Japan are
rapidly developing business faculty
that IS enabling them to break loose
from the foreign commercial managers
on whom they were for a long time en-
tirely dependent. They are very shrewd
observers, and quickly apply the infor-
nation they gain in the matter of bar
gaining, so that now they are able to
cheat and swindle customers with all the
grace and skill of proficient foreign
traders. The majority of the business
men belong to the lower classes, and
their operations have not tended to give
commercial enterprise the most honor
able character. Japan has an ex-
cellent civil service as far as
concerns the lower offices, the
higher positions not being affected
by it. A fixed gradation is in vogue,
and admission to government employ is
almost entirely determined by the edu.
cation of the applicant. Tine fact of one
having graduated at the university is
strong recommendation in itself. There
are two universities at Toxic, one under
an English manager, the other under IN
American. There is an annual examin-
alton, and the ten students who have the
highest standing are sent to England or
America to complete their education.
On their return they are taken into The
employ OF the government, ard from
their salaries specific sum is deducted
each month until their education is paid
for. This system has been found to
work most admirably, and has much to
recommend tito the consideration OF
eastern governments, now that civil SER
vice is SO much subject of talk

Professional Incomes.

Few men or women in any walk of
lne-lawyers, doctors, writer's, painters,
or actors-make as much as they are
generally credited with making. Most
of them realize much less. There are
casualties a1d reyerscs, which are not
the less real and disastrous because
they are concealed: there are failures
entailing consequences upon their VIC
tins quite us painful as any which were
experienced in the days of Savage. The
very fact that the average rewards Of
success are high causes the penalty paid
by the inability to command success to
seem, ard to be, the heavier. TIE in
comes of a few OF our chief artists do not
fall much short of tho leading incomes
of our loading lawyers; the incomes of
many artists who have not yet fully won
their way to the front rank are in excess
OF those of many professional men who
are considered to have done tolefably
well. On the whole therefore, those
who adopt any form of art as means of
livelihood may feel tolerably sure that
if they cannot support Themselves by it
they have mistaken their avocation.

sTAMMERERs AND srAMMER1NG.

impeachment in his speech, and no in

sometimes permanently cured by per-
sistent resort to some trifliug muscular
