KNOWLEDGE.

knowledge is power"-"ignorance is
bliss" The first proverb is defective.
knowledge is power and bliss combined.
The second proverb is sophistical II not
false. Ignorant people may be as "happy
as a clam" but that sort of bliss is not
worthy OF the name. Shell fish are not
supposed to have very high aspirations or
to go into ecstacies under the influence of
noble impulses, or to enjoy the luxury OF
well-doing. No one has any good reason
TO hank himself or his friends for being
ignorant. There are too many stubborn
facts to he Ignored. Ignorance is the moth

ALLEGED NEW YORK BRANCHES OF KINGLY
GENEALOGICAL TREES.
II the American republic is not in
danger il is not because of any lack of
claimants to royal descent among its citi-
zens, SAYS the Pail Mall Budget. Accord
ing to an nsignificant-looking book which
is being secretly circulated among the
upper classes i'm New York. the descend
ants Of kings literally swarm in the En-
pire City. However republican may be
the spirit of the New Workers in the alb
Stract, many OF them take intense interest
in ascertaining whether they belong to the
" Americana of Royal Descent" whose
genealogy is given in volume
with That title privately published
by Mr.. Browning, himself a descendant
Of William the Conqueror. The little
volume, which is constructed somewhat on
the plan OF a railway guide, possesses an
air Of reality and truthfulness, although
is revelations are OF most startling char
acter. Satisfactory as it may he to know
that one descends froma portly Dutchman,
who "loved gold in special" there is yet
a higher satisfaction-nay, glory-in the
thought that the stollt-heartedness of Ro-
bert Bruce, the goodness of King Alfred,
and the magnanlmity Of Charlemagne,
have all something TO do with the qualities
OF the Van Cortlandts, the Rutheriords,
and the Lawrenccs OF the present time.
Van Cortlandt, as Mr.. Browning has dis
covered, is a corruption for McCortlandt,
and rs only two generations ago Miss
Barclay marrying Mr.. Van Cortandt
brought the royal blood of james
/. and Robert Bruce into the fami-
ly, all the Van Cortlandts of
New York are lneal descendants
OF the hero OF Bannockburn. The family
OF Rutherford, after some INDIGESTION as to
whether they were "furds" or "fords,"
happily adopted the u, which now entities
them TO regard themselves as descendants
OF Charlemagne, to say nothing OF Scotch
kings. English lords, and French dukes,
whose glittering splendors adorn the fam
lly-tree OF the otherwise prosaic Ruther-
ford. The Lawrences are shown to have
descended from Alfred the Great: the
Clarksons claim descent from st. Louis,
the Hydes from Edward III. The LIoyds
trace their pedigree back to the husband OF
Lady Godiya, and the Lansons come in a
straight line from Queen Eleanor. There
are so many "king's children" in New
York that II the royal race should die out
IN the effete Old World there would be no
in supplying the deficient yield
OF kings, as OF breadstuffs, from across the
Atlantic.
