NEW AND OLD.

It was Chaucer that appropriately said 'sThere is nothing new but what has once been old." Chaucer evidently knew hash when he saw it. Yonlters Statesman.
 Standing before 8 clergyman who was about to marry him, rustic was asked, 'sWilt thou have the woman," etc. The man stared in surprise and replied: ''Ay, surely . Whoy, I kummed a-puppus !''
 A howl has gone up from Boston philan- thropists because the dormitories of Harvard college are without fire escapes. This should certainly be attended to, for there is reason to believe that now and then student &C., tually stays in 8 dormitory all night.-P1zSlG- delp1stG Neoos.
 A learned professor, addressing one of his class asked if he knew what animal magnet ism was. '1-er-er did know, but have forgotten, ,. was the answer.

 A poor Irishman passing butchers shop one day observed some liver for sale. Not knowing what it was he inquired of the butcher, and whether it was cheap and good to eat, receiving an answer in the affirmative. He said that he would like to buy some, but his old woman knew only how to boil "pratles," " whereupon the butcher good na- turedly offered to write him recipe for pre- pairing the savory dish. With this and his purchase dangling conspicuously in his hand Pat sallied forth in triumph. He had not proceeded far, however, before lean and hungry dog which had been prowling around seized the tasty morsel with his jaws and made of as fast as his legs could carry him. Pat, in nowise disconcerted, turned round with broad grin on his countenance and, shaking his fist at the canine thief. who was fast disappearing in the distance. said :: ttArrah, ye dirty blackguard; ye're sowld this timel You've got the liver, but you can't cook it, for I've got the resate in me pocket"

The Rev. Selah Brown gives in the Chris tan Union an interesting account of the odd ways of the Chinese. We shake hands as salutation; Chinaman shakes hands with himself. He stands at distance, and clasp ing both hands together he shakes them up and down at his friends. We uncover the head as mark of respect they keep their heads covered, but take of their shoes for politeness. We shave the face; they shave the head and eyebrows. We cut our finger nails they consider it aristocratic to have nails from three to five inches long, which they are obliged to protect in silver cases. The Chinaman's waistcoat is outside his coat, and his drawers outside his trousers. We blacken our shoes; he whitans-4hsm
 We have soup as first course at dinner, and dessert at last; they have dessert at first and soup at last. We want our wines ice cold the Chinese drink theirs scalding hot We bury in the earth, they on it's surface. With us, black clothing is a badge of mourning; with them, white garments indicate the loss of friends. In that land of opposites it is the old men who fly kites, walk on stilts, and play the shuttlecock, and to keep up their odd way of doing things they play the latter with their feet instead of their hands. In China, women do mems work, Md men are the milIinsrs, dressmakers, and washer women. With us the right hand is the place of honor; with them it is the left hand. In dating letters we place the year last; they write the year first. They always speak of tine mariners compass their own invention) as pointing to the south. We pay our physi- cians when we are sick; they pay while they are well, but soon as they get sick the pay stops. Here men kill their enemies; a Chi naman gets revenge by killing himself. We use soft pillow; they block of wood. They launch ships sidewise, ring bells from the outside, and actually turn their screws in the opposite direction from ours.

COMMUNICATIONS.

The Wallingfor1 Accident and Whist
 ling by Engineers on Railroads. To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 While everyone regrets the sad accident and sympathizes with the friends of the un- fortunate young people, at the same time we remark too much effort to make out that the engineer did not ''blow the whistle" Now the statute-page 331, sec 73-says 'the en- gineer shall sound the bell or steam whistle, and if he ring the bell it would seem that he need not blow the whistle. The ringing of the bell answers the statute. Now there are tens of thousands who live along and near the railroads in this State, to whom the bowling and screeehing of the steam whistle in the still night during sleeping hours, from say 10 to 5, is a terrible nuisance, and if people will be driving about over railroad crossings in those hours of the night when the great majority are, or ought to be, trying to sleep, they must take extra care-stop and listen. These thousands who live along the railroads are to be considered. We want less whistling, not more. Let the ringing of the bell, which does not SO shock and startle the sleeper and the sick ones, be sufficient in the night time at least.

Tariff and Erse Trade.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL. COURIER:
 Those who hold diverse opinions regard ing the imposition Of duties upon imports
 may be chased as l, believers in a tariff for revenue, which will afford considerable incidental protection to home industries 2, those who believe in tariff for revenue which will afford ths least possible incidental protection; 3, those who favor a tariff for revenue only. without regard to what pro tection it may afford and 4, free traders. The latter class have particular spite against protection. While objecting to any tariff, they urge that if any duties are to be i'm posed, they should be placed upon such arti- eles as to afford the least possible protection to our manufactures. See report of Pro- lessor Summers statements to the "Tariff Commission. ''] This might be accomplished by imposing duties only upon such articles as we do not produce, like tea, coffee, spices, raw india-rubber, etc.
 Protection is pernicious, says the free trader. The tariff is robbery" fraud, 1" "deeeit." All arguments in favor of even incidental protection are rubbish" and those who make them are s'economic quaeks," says the Yale professor, who seems to regard accurate statistics as of no particular impor tance, and the destruction of a considerable portion of the property interests of the country and the unsettling of hundreds of thousands of the employed as of no impor- tsnce whatever Fortunately, although the free trade apostles are most persistently reit- erailt their outcry makes but slight impress sion upon the sturdy common sense of the workngmen of New England. The Yale professor who appeared before the tariff commission as a political economist. " to ad- yocate his favorite free trade hobby, had nothing to suggest as to how revenue should be raised for government expenses if the tariff should, as he desired, be abolished. His theory is destructive rather than con- structige. Everybody knows that through some form of taxation large sum must be raised yearly for the support of the govern msnt. The free trader must prefer direct

 The Edmunds 'sboom" is being worked with more zeal than discretion by some of it's assistant engineers. The latest story, which appears in Chicago paper, is intend ed to illustrate Senator Edmunds' great courtesy. He had couple of Methodist clergymen visiting him, and requested his man-of-all work to black their boots in the morning, which he declined to do. MT. Ed munds promptly discharged the fellow, went up stairs, got the boots; and polished them himself All the Methodist ministers and their focks ought to be ''solid'' for Edmunds, and the bootblacks ought not to Ego back on" the great man who thus honored their calling.
 There have been so many emotional murderers'' in California that it has been thought best by the Legislature to pay special attention to this class of criminals. bill has been passed which provides that murderer who enters plea of insanity shall first be examined for crazinsss alone, with out regard to- his crime; and if the court finds him sane he shall be tried for murder, the false plea entering as an "aggravation of the offense'' But if the plea of insanity is sustained, the defendant shall be sent to mad house by the court and never removed unless his sanity at the time of the murder is proven. Then he shall be taken away and tried on the original charge. similar law is needed in other States.

The proposed enlargement of the Suez canal now occupies the attention of English spectators, and there are many large schemes put forward upon the calculation that the interests of British enterprise will in the end be promoted. The general width of the waterway is little over three hun dred feet, and one suggestion is that another hundred feet should be added. But against this it is reasoned that the heaps of sand for merly taken out would have to be removed, and it is 8 debatable question whether it would not be a less expensive design to dig another and independent ditch. It is point ed out that the present canal would greatly facilitate the introduction of another, reduc- ing the outlay in number of ways.

Telegraph companies print on their blanks notification that they will not be responsi- bls for damages resulting from mistakes in transmission unless the sender pays extra to have the message repeated. An interesting case bearing upon the validity of such 8 pro-. vision has just been decided in New Orleans A message to Atchison, Kansas, which was incorrectly transmitted, caused loss of four cents bushel on twelve car loads of corn.z Upon suit to recover the damage thus sus- tained, the company alleged for 8 defense that the sender had not paid for arepstition of the message and thas he had written it so badly as to excuse the operator for making mistake in 1t. The court decided that the company had right to insist upon g repeti- tion of message as condition of being held liable for mistakes, but that snch provision would not excuse mistakes ariain9 from the negligence of it's employees and ths omission of the operator to have the badly written message explained to him was adjudged to have been negligence.
