A RIgpifed Prince.

Washington, 3.-The Jspanese Prince,
Jsruluts Arisugsws, who spent the
Christmas season here, is not at all in
clined to be seciSl with Americans. Evil
IDENTIFY be considers himself too great
man to hob mob with the distinguished
people of this country He sven went SO
far IS to refuse an invitstion to dine with
President Arthur, for no particular
reason save it did lot suit his conve-
nienee. He also took special pains to
snob General Van Buren,, consul at
Toxic, who recently returned to this
country. He did not invite him to sny
OF his dinners, and positively refused
to allow him to accompany the party
that went down TO Mt. Vernon in the
early part of the week. General Van
Buren, ia well acquainted with the Prince,
and occupying the position he does, it is
considered strange that be should have
been so sighted. The correspondent,
Samuel III. Bryan, 8 native of this
country, but for the last ten years con-
nected with the Jspsnese Government,
IN TIE capacity of postmaster general,
said: cannot understand it. ArisU.
gawa is the best educated man in japan.
He Is well posted, and fully understands
the couTtesies due the President. He is
very peculiar, however, and likes to be
coaxed into doing things. As one Of the
greatest potentstes of bis country, he
feels the importance o. his rank, and is
inclined to be- cfish, and possibly did
not accept the Presidents invitation
because 1t did not come with sufficient
ceremony"

Our Financial Condition.

The country is full of money, and
good money. Never was the currency
in so sound and healthy a state in the
United States as at this moment.
With all allowances for the damage to
the corn, cotton and wheat crop, there
is an abundance Of everything the soil
produces to satisfy our own wants and
those of foreign countries. Speculation
has been absolutely squeezed out of
every department of trade and finance.
Where whole classes were reckless,
whole classes are now rivaliDg each
other in conservatism. There is vast
reserve strength in a free and rich ma
ton like ours, and there is no evidence
that the mistakes and the excuses oil
the years between 1878 and 1881 have
trenched On anything mere than sur
plus, nor that they have exhausted
that. The opinion of the best bankers
is that while the present depression
may last little while longer and carry
off few more of the weak concerns
that have been struggling along since
the shrinkage began the average con
ditiOn of all our interests is good. The
percentage of failures that Is to be still
looked for is infnitesimal when meas

not lesson here every young man
may we'll lay at heart? A wise use of
the moments that are often wasted
would enable any young man to re.
pair the loss of opportunities which he
laments in all after life. Another sue
cessful merchant, Gideon Lee, in his
last hours, impressed this upon his sons :
''Be always employed proftably-in
doing good, in building up. Aim to
promote the good of yourselves and Of
society. Fill up the measure of your
time" Time once gone is gone for.
ever. Like last summers sunshine, it
never returns again. The mill will
never grind with the water that is past.
Many of the men who have sent their
names ringing down the years-who
are honored as leaders of thought, as
princes in their chosen spheres-have
been men who have utilized every
spare moment.
Peter Cooper was a man of more
than ordinary inventive genius. We
might give many instances of this, but
time forbids. One of these, however,
was character which, had it been
utilized, would have earned for him
undying gratitude. His first baby was
born at Hampstead, and he was often
called upon to rock the cradel. This
hindeIed him from his work. So he
sets his wits to work, and invented
self rocking cradle, with tan attach
ment to keep off the fes, and a musical
instrument to soothe the baby. Young
gentlemen, if any of you contemplate
launching upon the sea Of matrimony
with its prospective squalls" | would
advise you to look up Peter Cooper
cradle. At one time he purchased prop
erty in Baltimore, just about the time
the Baltimore and Ohio Railway was
being constructed. Owing to the many
sharp curves on the road, it was said it
could not be worked, as no engine
could run upon it, and the sums ex.
pended would be lost. Mr.. Cooper
wanted it finished, because it would in.
crease the value of his property; and
so he built lOcomOtive-the first ever
built in the United States-and
brought it for trial upon the road. 1t
must have been an odd>looking thing.
1t had a boiler about as large as that OF
range in a modern kitchen, and a
smoke-stack which some one said looked
like an aggravated oil.can. Attached
to this was a car about as big as an Or
binary row.boat. The directors and
officers of the road took their seats.
With fear and trembling they watched
Mr.. Cooper open the throttle valve.
The locomotive sped along, soon
reaching fifteen miles an hour; then
eighteen miles. This was more than
the most sanguine had dreamed. Just
as they were nearing the end of the
: trip horse struck up race with the
engine, and at moment when it was
neck and neck between steam and
horse, the band slipped off the fly
wheel, and the result scored one in ia.
vor of the horse. But the result of the
trip was the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road was saved and money flowed in tc
complete its construction.
This is one of the many instances Of
his brave graphing with and conquest
of difficulties, which is essential to sue

A PACIFIC WHALE STORY.

The boat Maria came into port yester-
day with heavy cargo of fish and sto-
ry almost incredible. The captain, whose
name could not be learned, states that on
passing along beyond the bar on the
outward cruise last Monday while several
OF his men were asleep and he was at the
tiller, he felt his craft in contact with
something rubbing along her bottom, and
was surprised to find it suddenly lifted
with great shock, fully ten feet above
the surface of the water The boat fell
again into the sea perfectly upright, and
the sail having lost none of the stiff
breeze that filed it, she continued her
course as if no such extraordinary thing
had happened. The men below were rude
ly awakened, and turned out to aseer-
tain the cause of the phenomenon, when
all hands were surprised to see passing
away at one side monstrous whale The
leviathan had exhausted his supply of all
and in coming to the surface for more
had struck the boat, with the effect men
toned. The hugh being spouted an inn
mense stream of water, and, having sport
ed about for short time, sank again in
to the ocean. Aside from a severe wrench
the craft sustained no injury, and tht
men suffered nothing but momeptar,

the fact that recently British ship took

would appear from this that the only
