A CUBAN General, Bonacheu by
name, was in New York recently, for
the purpose, rs he said, Of recognizing
the so-callcd Republic Of Cuba. He had
several interviews with leading capital
lists, by one OF whom he was told that,
II he could get General Grant interested
in the matter, it would BIO easy to raise
fifty million dollars for the cause. There
Ia always some one going about the
world recognizing the Cuban republic,
and living well on the money obtained
from his dupes. Bonachen is probably
playing the part Of Queseda, who seems
to have disappeared from public view.

The Holy Ghost Flower.

The Botonical Garden in Washington
flower kingdom. 1t is Holy Ghost or
Dove Flower in bloom. This curiosity
is from Panama, and blooms annually.
The plant grows from bulb about the
size of ones hand, and springs up in a
single stock, which is the size of a pipe
stem, aud resembles in color and general
appearance rush, and is about
81 feet high At the top of the stock,
and for space OF probably six inches
along its sides near the top the flowers
are located. They are about two and
one.half inches in circumference, white
as snow, appearing rather like wax or
marble, and of the shape of cup,
with the mouth inclined outwardly.
AT the bottom of this cup-shaped bios
som is the most lovely specimen of
natures art. 1t is the dove, which occu.
pies n sitting posture, with wings ex-
tending upward, and exhibiting the first
half of the dove. In front of the dove
is an altar slightly sprinkled with dimin-
utive dots OF maroon coloring, and this
the only color about the bloom. At the
base OF the stalk are three shoots, or
long leaves, like the shoots to new corn.
There are twenty-five of the cups on the
stem, and the fragrance is very delicate
and sweet. 1t is a great curiosity, and
is attracting great number of visitors.
The dove specimen is kept in the green
house where the air plants are, which
are nothing less than blocks of wood,
kept in temperature so hot and damp
that they are forced to grow and bloom,
and these alone are worth seeing. -

THEATRICAL companies which during
the coming season are to play at the
leading theatres or to travel about the
country have now been made up" by
the managers. There are in the United
States about FIVE thousand alleged actors,
nearly three-iifths Of the numbrr being
men. A very small number Of these
persons, however, are gifted with
genius for acting, or have received the
requisite amount Of training to make
them actors. About four-fifths Of this
army consists Of those who have left
callngs which seemed too laborions TO
them, and, under the impression that 1t
is necessary only to dress well and APP
pear well in order to become an actor,
announce themselves as factors" OF
the men the real actors among us may
be counted on less than all the fingers OF
one hand, while among the women there
is not one who Is q great actress. The
actor does not come into being, like
Minerva, armed at every point, but, like
tho orator, he is the result Of training.
Acting is an art in which the highest
order Of natural gifts, mental as well as
physical, must be supplemented by long
years Of patient study and careful train
ing, in order that man or woman may
become an actor or nm actress. IL has
become the fashion OF late years for per-
sons who have achieved certain pub
liciiy to burst forth 1efulgcnt as stars
of the first magnitude in the theatrical
armament. This practice leads the
philosopher to fear lest acting also is
becoming one Of the lost arts. Why did
not Mrs. Langtry so TO Paris for study
before she thrust herself upon the pub
lie? Mrs. Langtry plays the piano I'M
doubtedly. Why. then, did she not
announce herself as pianist' Let her
study acting and piano playing for
twenty years and she is more likely to
play the piano well than to be an actress.
After youth spent in practice it is
possible that many men may become
violinists, but there is not one man in a
hundred thousand who, having devoted
his earlier years exclusively to the study
of Hamlet. f" could play that part even
passably.

HANDWRITING.
How Some Famous Men and Women
Used tho Pen.


The Duke of Wellipgton's writing was
large and forcible, without attempt at
decoration. During the last ten years OF
his life, however, his writing was indif-
ferent, and often illegible. None but a
competitor in newspaper office, used
to all sorts of heroglyphies, could poss.
IDLY decipher the characters. A letter
of his to Minister in Lord Derby Ca b.
met has not to this day been unraveled.
Nine out Of every ten of the Dukes let
ters treasured up by autograph hunters
were written by his secretary, Mr., Grey
vile, who wrote hand very much like
that of the Duke in his best days. Lord
Brougham's hand betrayed much uncon.
querable restlessness of impulse. His
manuscript was mass OF hieroglypics,
and, according to DR.. Blenkinsop, in all
MIR. Cloves extensive printing
establishment in London, there was
only one man who was competent to
grapple with it, and he often gave up
in despair. The bold and careless free
dom Of Byron's handwriting compared
to the elegant little prettiness of Tom
Moore's reveals very clearly the pecu-
liar qualities of the two poets. The
elegant precision of Mrs. Hemaus pen.
manship, and the free but clear and in
telligent abandon of l.. Il. Landon's were
equally characteristic of their mental
peeuliarities. The royal family of Eng.
land have generally written good, clear
and free hands. William ". wrote a
remarkably plain and legible hand, and
that of his brother was snowy and
fluent. Queen Victoria has an ele-
CANT signature. Locke says the faster
man writes the slower others read
what he has written. Napoleon could
write fourteen pages in n minute; unfor-
tunately, however, each page con-
sisted OF eight blots and splatter.
Some OF his lines to Marie Louise APP
pear MS if scattered over the paper by
the explosionfof bomb-shell. The man
uscript of Horace Greeley, the Ameri-
can Statesman, was very illegible. A
wag once observed that the sentence,
VIRTUE is its own reward, written by
Mr.. Greeley, was rendered by the com
positor into washing with soap is
wholly absurd" Another story runs
that Mr.. Greeley was once applied to
for the character of servant whom he
had dismissed for dishonest practices.
Some time afterwards the man met Mr.
Greeley and thanked him for the charac-
ter he had given him. "Why," said he,
81 candidly said you were thief. T"
"Well, sir, as ii was impossible to read
your letter, ii was construed into n
recommendation and got tho situa-
ton"

The Suttor-street cable road is now
using petroleum instead OF coal for fuel.
1t Is found that three hundred gallons
Of crude petroleum daily is sufficient for
the purpose, and IL is thought that, if
the steam be superheated, two hundred
gallons will be enough. The use of
petroleum for producing steam is by no
means novelty, but this is, we believe,
the first instance of its being used on SO
large a scale on our own coast. II is to
be hoped that persons intending to en-
bark in manufacturing enterprises in
this city will remember that we have
plenty Of oil at various places in this
county, and that the question of an
adequate supply of fuel need not enter
into their calculations. There is no
reason why Los Angeles should not be-
come as noted for manufactures as for
fruits.

REPUBLICAN papers at the East admit
candidly that, in the matter of talent in
the Upper House Of the incoming Con-
gress, the Democrats will have very
much the best of it. In the first place,
almost all of the men whom the Repub.
licans have elected are unused to public
affairs, and they will find themselves at
great disadvantage in the hands of their
opponents. On the other hand, the
Democrats have done wisely in re-elect-
ing so many Of their best men. The Re-
publican party commits blunder after
blunder with charming ease. 1t is doing
its best to hasten the march of events.
Like the Monks of La Trappe, the Re-
publican party delights in digging its
own grave daily. And at the appointed
time the corpse. as Artemas Ward OBJ
served in connection with another flu
neral, will be ready.

II is almost incredible that the station

IT is almost incredible that the station
OF Carlton, on the Rome, Watertown &
ogdensburg Railroad, where the late
fatal collision occurred, was left at night
without any one to see that the track
and switches were in proper order The
man who at that station acted in mani
fold capacity, being everything from
agent to switch tender, testified at the
inquest that his duties ended at seven
o'clock in the evening, and that he then
went to his house, amile and half away.
This extraordinary economywill cost the
company half million of dollars, but
the President and Directors should be
indicted for manslaughter Such cold
blooded negligence OF all precaution
should be punished signally and
promptly. 1t is to be hoped that the
Railroad Commission will deal severely
with the company.

THE result of last years explorations
in Alaska by Mr.. Ivan Petroff is about
to be given to the public. The area OF
that territory is much greater than had
been supposed. 1t is now computed
that the main land of Alaska contains
live hundred and eighty thousand square
miles, and its islands thirty-one thou
sand more. Its coast line measures
twenty-five Thousand miles. The Yukon
river, which is from one to five miles
in width TO distance of one thousand
miles from the sea, is known to be nayi-
gable for fifteen hundred miles, and
believed by Mr.. Peroff to be navigable
for three thousand miles, during the
five months of the Alaskan summer.
The country abounds in fur-bearing ami
mails. Practically all the fur-sealslxins
of commerce come from the little islands
of St. Paul and st. George. Its Goldfish
banks are greater in extent than those
OF the Atlantic, and three Thousand tons
of Goldfish have been taken in single
year. AT several places salmon Gamer
have been established. There are
