CHIEF JUSTICE Sherwood of Pennsylvania
said, in speech at Philadelphia banquet,
given in honor of his retirement from the
bench: ''Indeed, it may be questioned
whether great learning is desirable quality

opinions, and delivering charges unintellig-

DIR. Tavernier, and have not seen the report
made to the French government ON the sub
ject by select committee of twelve. The av-
erage age of the infants last February was 8
months and three days, the youngest being less
than II hours old, and the Oldest not more than
II months. Their average weight was sixteen
pounds, only one of the entire $50 having at
tanned weight of thirty-two pounds AT the
end of six months of artificial incubation, the
average weight of each infant was twenty-four
pounds, and there was not one that would not
have been supposed by casual observer to be
at least three years old. In other words, six
weeks of artificial Incubation did as much in
the way of developing DR.. Tavernier's found
lings as three years of ordinary life would have

PRESIDENT Grevy has not distinguished
himself very much during his administra-
ton as Chief Magistrate of the French Re-
public, and indeed his peculiarly studied
policy of personal self-effacement has led
many persons to believe him to be weak
sort of Executive; but nevertheless it is a
singular fact that there is no prominent
candidate to succeed him at the expiration
of his term in the Presidency.

In q Moorish shop.

The old spelling %, oss-ery) would GER
tainJy fit o modern Oriental provision
store, if the following is fair specimen.
Mrs. Elizabeth Murray, describing q
Moorish merchant and bis stock in trade,
as she saw them in Tangiers, says that
tIn the morning the Moor unlocks his
box in the wall-for such is his shop
and jumps in among his merchandise.
There he sits crossed legged in the midst
of his wares, offers them for sale and
endeavofs to attract customers. His
stock cannot be described in honest
truth as very tempting in it's nature. 1t
consist of heaps of musty raisins, coarse
sugar plentifully mingled with flies, stale
leathery figs, snuff and several other
odds and ends mixed up together with
out any attempt at regularity or order.
There are also several large jars OF
rancid butter, the presence of which is
announced by the odor even before one
comes in sight of the shop. The article
is popular, notwithstanding Tor, perhaps,
because of its staleness, and bears many
visible signs of the demand which it has
excited in the marks of the merchants
fingers in all directions upon the jars.
1t is an old saying that travellers see
strange things, and those that only open
their eyes may witness not only many
novelties, but also the novel uses to
which familiar things may be put. A
carroty cat, for example, sits at the mer-
chants side, and appears to be in the
enjoyment of that state of perfectly
satisfied repose which individuals Of the
feline tribe appear to appreciate
so much. The cat answers the
purpose of soap, water and towel to
the Moor, who carefully wipes his hands
on her back between each dispensation
of butter to his waiting customers"

Southern Domesticity and Homes.

There are two phases of Southern
life which are but little appreciated at
the North: Its domesticity and its
humor. The conventional planter of
the ante-bellum era was careless,
boastful, staggering tyrant; his wife
and daughters equally careless in re-
gard to the home life, it's comforts and
economies, as he of the administration
of his boundfess acres. Both ideas
were almost equally incorrect. The
Southern planter, as a rule, was care
full administrator of his estate; not in
the same snug and tidy manner of
which the Northern farmer boasts-he
did not work and fuss and worry over
all the details of farm management as
much as his compeer of the North, nor
was his sense of fitness outraged by q
lack of completeness and order which
would have driven the farmer of the
Middle States into an insane asylum.
There was sort of laxity about his
methods which was hard for the North
ern man to distinguish from slothful-
ness. Yet he watched with care the
development of the crops, the progress
of his work, and was no doubt better
director of labor than could generally
be found upon the Northern farm.
With ignorant labor and crude ma
chinery he achieved good results. 1t is
especially with regard to the domestic
life of the South, however, that false
ideas prevailed at the North. The
planters family has always been
credited with hospitality of lavish,
careless kind, but very small proper
ton of the people of the North have
ever supposed that the planters wife

most anxious and troubled variety

keeper has been SO great that the
former has very often been inclined to
elevate dainty nose in scorn of any
protested requirements of the latter.
So, too, the hurly-burly of our North
ern life; its sharp competition and the
constant influx of the outside world
have been such as to predispose us to
underestimate the charming domesticity
of the Southern home. 1t is not often
as strictly ordered or administered
with that anxiety with regard to detail
that characterizes the Northern house,
hold, yet there is rarely to be found
more faithful purveyor of comforts
than the mistress of Southern planta-
ton. The very isolation of plantation
life; the rarity of strangers visits and
the care with which even the most dis
tant family ties are remembered and
acknowledged in that section, all tend
to make the domestic life of the better
class of the South very charming and
delightful. Touryee, IN The Con-

The telegraphic announcement made .
few days ago that the famous trotting STALL
ion, Black Cloud, whose brilliant perform
ance upon tho turf last season won the as
constituent and admiration of horsemen,
had been sold by the estate of the late An
drew Cutter, Of Parma, Mich. to NJ v.
has proven to be correct. Black Cloud is
a marvel Of beauty, and Is perhaps one Of
the handsomest horses in race that ever
trotted upon the American turf, having a
record Of 2:17x. He is large, finely pro-
portioned, and !" as black as black can be"
His hair is as fine as silk, and as soft as
velvet, his name and tail arc long and
heavy, the latter almost touching the
ground. The noble animal passes into ex-
cellent hands. The purchaser, Mayor M.
v. Wagner, is not only an admirer and low
er Of good horses, but is also a frst-class
business man, of energy and enterprise.
He is large manufacturer, and is the bust
ness manager of the Voltaic Belt Co., of
Marshall, Mich, whose appliances have
been so persistently and skillfully adver-
tised. Black Cloud has been placed in the
hands of a noted Chicago driver, who viii
