IN HIS book On Japan, just pub
lished in London, DR.. Dresser men
tions a curious dainty of the table
which has escaped the notice OF
most travellers, namely, dish of
fish so delicately carved that nc
vital part is touched, and the fish is
still alive, glazing at its deyourer
when the last slice OF its flesh has
been consumed. DR.. Dresser de,
cIares that haro-kirj is not per.
formed by opening the abdomen
but by thrusting sharp sword into
the neck behind the windpipe, and
pushing it forward till the throat is
severed. The misunderstanding Of
the operation has arisen, says the
author, from the fact that the per
son intending suicide scratches
upon his stomach certain marks
which explain to the initiated the
cause Of his death.

THERE Is one, bill before Congress
that ought not to be discussed, but
promptly passed. It is the bill pro-
viding for the taxation of public
lands belonging to railroad compa-
MES. 1t is claimed that 100000
acres of land have, because the
companies to which they were
granted refuse to take patents
therefor, each year escaped the bur-
dens of taxation. Tie present law
does Lot compel them to do so, and
SO long as the title remains in the
government, state authorities are
prevented from assessing them for
revenue purposes and collecting
taxes thereon. There is absolutely
no reason why these lands should
not be compelled to contribute to
the support of the state and terrific
rial governments in which they lie.
The acts making the original grants
to these roads, contemplated the
speedy marketing of these lands,
and in the meantime the obligation
to pay taxes was suspended. The
companies, for the purpose of es-
Gaping their obligations, made pre-
tended disposals of their interest in
the lands, which have been declared
sufficient to prevent them reyerting
to the public. If the lands are no
longer public, they surely are sub.
ject to taxation, and if they are pub
lie, they are by the same reasoning
open to settlement and presumption.
The railroads should not be permit
ted to claim these lands and at the
same time escape taxation, because
they are part of the public domain.

THE CINCINNATI NeoUs suggests
d plan for reducing the enormous
pension roll, the scheme being the
printing of list of the pensioners
and also the applicants, SO that the
names Of all who receive stipends
and of those who want to, may be a
matter of public record. But one
objection has been urged to this
plan. The tender-hearted friend of
the soldier has urged chat it is
misery enough for man to be in
need Of his counry's assistance, bat
far more to have his miserable con-
dition advertised. We take this to
be maudiin and absurd. If man
is the victim of honorable wounds
Or disease contracted in the service,
why should he be ashamed of 1t !?
The experiment should be tried.
Possibly it would discourage the
frauds who have manufactured all
ments, and thus reduce the fright
full expense.

The ATLANTA Constitution tells
Of four boys of that city named
Green, who started out few years
ago selling newspapers. They made
ten cents each the first morning they
went to work, and for two winters
thereafter they went haIf-clad
through the snow and sleet in the
freezing dawn on their morning
rounds. From the very first they
saved a certain per centage Of their
earnings, which they invested in
Atlanta real estate. The Oldest OF
them is now eighteen years of age
and the youngest twelve. They
have supported an invalid father
and their mother all the time, ant
now have property worth cCnsidera
bly, over $4,000, houses from whicl
the rent is twenty dollars a month
and 5000 stock in a building ant
loan association. They have edu
Gated themselves the meanwhile
remaining from school this year il
order to work the harder and builC
Reme for their parents.

HELL Ina New Jersey.

Shortly after the passage of the
Fourteenth Amendment, a movement
in which Mr. Greeley had taken con.
siderable interest, "A large darkey who
had called several times at the Tribune
office, came into Mr.. Greeley's private
room, while he was busily engaged
in writing. Now, if there was any
one thing that was we'll understood
around the Tribune Office it was that
Mr.. Greeley was not to be disturbed in
the midst of his thought When he
was seen to be busy, with his face
close down to the paper and his pen
running rapidly from left to right
across his sheet, no one around the
office had the hardihood to speak to
him. But this colored gentleman
marched straight up to his elbow, and
with large goldheaded cane under
his arm, and fine, broadcloth coat
buttoned close around his breast, he
broke right in:
q say, Mr. Greeley, l thought |
would call and talk with you, sab,
about advising de culled people to
study de sciences"
Mr.. Greeley's face assumed nearer
proximity than ever to the paper he
was writing on, and his hand kept
going across it from left TO right with
greater rapidity than before, The
cheeky freedman was not to be put
out of time in this way. He therefore
spoke again, and in a slightly louder
tone of voice than before:
81 thought l would ask you" he
continual Ntn xvritn adi n1 4
vising de culled people to study de
sciences"
Still the great editor wrote on. On
the third REPETITION of the remark, Mr..
Greeley laid down his pen, and look.
ing up hastily, exclaimed:
Go away! Go HI! Go over into
New Jersey. and go to raising pota-
toesp
The colored man didn't trouble him
any more.-Cleoeland Leader.

an elegant banquet WIS spread in

went further south to return and give
