Paul MOrphy'S Memory.

Breatano's Chess Monthly recalls this
instance of the remarkable memory of
the greatest chess-player the world has
ever known: Of Morphy's gigantic mem
DRY I had indubitable proof from my own
observation at the time he was playing
his celebrated match with Lowenthal.
Both opponents had agreed to regard
the games played as their intellectual
private property, not to be published. I
was at the time editing the chess col
unns of the Sunday Times, and anxious
to reproduce them there. In order to
obtain the requisite information, L had
to epply to one of the contestip~ parties.
I first went to Morphy, who received me
cordially, and declared his entire will
ingness to dictate for me the last partie,
played the day before. begged him to
repeat the game on the board, as would
Ill this manner be better able to follow
the progress of the contest. Morphy con
scented, and at the tenth move of black
OowenthaD asked him to stop mo-
ment, since it seemed to me that at this
particular point better move might
have been made. sob, you probably
mean the move which you yourself made
in one of your contests with Dufresne ?"
answered Morphy in his simple, artless
way of speaking. I was startled. The
partie mentioned had been played in
Berlin in 1851, seven years before, and 1
had totally forgotten all its details. On
observing this, Morphy called for Sec
ond board, and began, without the least
hesitation, to repeat that game from the
first to the last move without single
mistake. 1 was speeches. from surprise.
Here was q man, whose attention was
constantly distracted by countless de-
mands on his memory, and yet he had
perfectly retained for seven years all the
details Of a game insignificant in itself,
and, moreover, printed in a language
entirely unknown to him.

Ben Buffers Hand-0rgan.

Soon after Butler reached Washing
ton, In the early part of the war, the
Auditor Of the War Department sent
for him and said the authorities
couldn't allow a charge of 5000 for one
horse and mule, while only $50 had
been paid for large number of others.
Then Butler told him that on his az
rival at Annapolis the inhabitants had
kept their carts and mules out of sight.
But he got hold of one, and paid its
owner 5000 cash in gold pieces. There
was no trouble after that in getting all
he wanted at reasonable prices. Then
the Auditor said that there was charge
for monkey and a hand-organ which
he could not allow. Then Butler ex-
planned that General Scott advised his
laying regular siege to Baltimore, but
Butler did not think it necessary. One
day at the Relay House, thinking how
he could BEST carry out his scheme, he
saw an italian organ man with mon
key. He at once confscated it, but
promised that everything should be
made right, and ordered one of his staff
"a rollicking reckless fellow, who en-
joyed such an adventure, to get into the
organ-grinder's clothes, take his organ
and his monkey and go to Baltimore.
The young fellow did SO, was gone
three days, came back and reported the
state of affairs in the city, on the
strength of which Butler at once moved,
without resistance, into the city, saving
by the $50 he paid for monkey and
hand-organ, the $5,000,000 it would
have cost the government by approach
ing and besieging the city.

The seedlings spring up freely in the

The stem, at later period, loses its

The Improvement in Human Health.

In result of q somewhat large ac-
quaintance with the facts held to indi-
cate the state and progress of "humap
health, / fear my testimony must be
given to show that the improvement
effected by science consists In prolong-
alton OF the passive endurance of life,
rather than an extension of the period
OF true vitality, or any increase of the
opportunity for good work and real in
tellectuat enjoyment. We NAV Give -
longer, but our lives are not either hap
pier nor more useful for the excessive en-
ergy recently devoted to the conserva-
ton of health, or the inordinate and
laborious means taken to avoid disease
and death. It may, doubtless, be posi-
bic to raise humanity to the level of one
of those scientific toys which approx
mate perpetual motion, but expend
their whole force in moving themselves.
Whether longevity purchased at the price
of passing lifetime in running away
from death would be worth having, 1
must leave to be determined by the
Judgment OF those who set value on
our sO-called sanitary progress, which
l, for one, fail to recognize.

and lived nobler lives, before the persuit
