Newspaper Salaries In England.

Literary pay in England varies largely
with place and quality. The leader
writers on the Times are generally salar-
led men, receiving &, 900 or SO year for
three articles week but if m outsider
that is, Il man who is not regularly on the
staff of the paper-contributed an article
n column or so in length, he would not
probably be presented with anything
smaller than check for five guineas.
The editorship Of the Times is the big
plum of journalism, Mr.. Chenery, the
present editor, receiving it is said, 5000
year, with free chambers in Sergeauts'
inn. The Echo pays guinea each for its
articles. The salary of Mr.. Arthur Ar
nold as editor Of the Echo during Mes
srs. Casscll, Peter x Galpin's proprie-
torship, was II ,000 year. There are
provincial journals who pay their editors
as much and more than this sum. The
Manchester Guardian, the Sportsman,
the Newcastle Daily Chronicle and sever
al other leading daily organs of the pro-
vinces pay not less than 81 900 year
each, and it is likely one or two of them
give more. Mr.. Charles Pebody, recent
appointed editor of the Yorkshire Post ut
Leeds, is to receive G1 900 year for his
services. guinea or sovereign is the
lowest sum that is given for an article Of
the orthodox column in length by any
journal OF any standing at all. II is the
price that is paid by daily and weekly pa
pers in London and the provinces. The
Globe gives guinea for what it calls ITS
turn over article" which begins on the
last column on its first page. The City
Press pays it writers at the rate Of II
guinea IL column. while the Daily Chroni-
Gle, scorning the obsolete coin, presents
its outside penmen with checks for sums
for work done at the rate of pound
column. The Morning Post gives two
guineas for leading article, the st.
James Gazette three, and the Spectator
five. The literary beginner is advised to
bear in mind that merit is the only pass
port to success. Introductions to editors
may help at times, but good work is the
only thing that will enable one to win in
the end. An editors only desire is to get
hold of the best work he can to suit his
particular paper or periodical; and, pro-
viding you produce the right sort Of stuff,
success is certain.

Water Cav for Engine Fu,l.

Water gas is now used to run locomo-

1.-The few people who were i'll the depot

mean New York Heat, Light and Power
company, who control the patent, the iu-
ventor, DIR. Charles Holland fNew York,
who rode on the engine, being the largest
stockholder. This locomotive uses no
coal or wood whatever, merely burning
the gas which it condenses from the 2500
gallons of water which the tender holds,
using 5iS gas Jets. 1t is the only one of
the kind ever built, and was constructed
about year ago at the Grant locomotive
works Mt Patterson, N. j., has handsome
exterior, and weighs "a tons, being of the
same grade as the Southern roads fast
passenger engines. 1t differs from them
merely in the construction of the tire-pot
and boiler. There are four retorts in the
fire-box, two for oil and two for water.
When the engine is first started the gas
is made from the cold water in the retort,
but when the gauge registers from 20 to
80 pounds of steam the water is shut off,
and the steam is taken from tho boiler,
which process saves heating the water
twice. Even should the fire go out the
engine will continue to run for some time,
This locomotive has been used on the
Erie road about year for an average Of
four days in the week. The Southern

Cash Versus Fame, s7;sys

Carlyle rebuked Scott for over-haste il
production, to the detriment of what
might have been first-class work. But
Scott rescued himself from financial en-.
barrassment of apparently insuperablc
magnitude. He paid his debts, and died
honored and mourned. Carlyle made
himself and his wife miserable for life
yet he is scarcely in his grave before Mr..
f'roudes two volumes lead many people
to doubt whether they have not these
many years been worshipping mn impos-
tor. No man, however great, is justified
III manufacturing special dialect for the
ventilation of his special theories. Chr
lyle did not shrink from presumption.
He invented Carlylose, and it prcdomi-
mates III many Of his works. Yet we re-
main III ignorance to this day of the true
object and intention of those doctrines
which were supposed to requires distinct
language for their proper exposition.
Carlyle had mission. Unfortunately
the world has never received information
MS to the nature Of that mission. Mr..
Froude, from whom we expected some en-
lightenmcnt, is entirely silent. If the
mission were not to bully his wife and
sneer at his contemporaries, we cannot
tell what it was.
Yet Carlyle's criticism on Scott was, in
its way, far from unreasonable. The
'Waverly Novels" good as they are,
might have been rendered very much bet
ter by stronger infusion of that very
commonplace ingredient-pains. To
mention few Instances 'Peveril Of
the Peak is insuiierably dull at the COM
mencement and&neither original nor pro-
bable at the end. Woodstock was con-
tinued until well-nigh the end in the total

fession, rs TO the device for bringing it to

which it derives its name. Quentin Dur

by great excelleucies, do not present n

every man must be judge unto himself
as to the business he selects and his meth
cd Of conducting it. None the less true,
however, is the proposition that both
fame and fortune can only in few ex-
ccptional cases, and but to limited extent,
be secured in literature. The fifty vol
ume man can never be an Emerson. III
Emerson had written fifty volumes, he
would have been forgotten ere now. This
is a general proposition. An occasional
exception, like that of Voltaire, serves
only to prove the rule.

into n state of morbid activity only to re-
lapse into morbid inactivity. The effect
of every laxative is followed by strin-
gent reaction, and the habitual use of
peptic stimulants leads to chronic con-
stipation which yields only to purgltives
of the most virulent kind.
Does alcohol impart strength Does
it benefit the exhausted system? If a
wornout horse drops on the highway, we
can rouse 1t by sticking knife into its
ribs, but after staggering ahead for n
couple of minutes it will drop again, and
the second deiiQtium will be worse than
the first by just rs much as the brutal
stimulus has still further exhausted the
little remaining strength. In the same
way precisely alcohol rallies the exhaust
ed energies Of the human body. The
PROSTATE vitality rises against the foe and
labors with restless energy till the poison
is expelled. Then comes tho renction,
and before the patient can recover, his
organism has to do double work. Nature
has to overcome both the original cause
of the disease and the effect of the stimu-
liant

do not intend to deny that the use of
mild alcoholic tonics, as n substitute for
the frightful remedies Ct the medieval
Sangrados, i. decided improvement, but,
still, it is only lesser evil, first step of
progressive reform. Alcohol fingers in
our hospitals as Eslavery fingers in the
West Indies, as the witchcraft delusion
fingers in southern Europe. Has alcohol
any remedial value whatever? Let us
consider the matter from II purely empiri-
cal standpoint. Does alcohol protect ffom
malarial fevers? 1t is well known fact
that the human organism cannot support
two diseases at the same time. Rheuma-
!. tism can be temporarily relieved by pro-
ducing nm artificial inflammation; head
ache yields to severe toothache. For the
same reason the alcohol fever affords n
temporary protection from other febrile
symptoms-i. e., man might fortify his
system against chills and ague by keeping
himself constantly under the stimulating
influence of alcohol. But sooner or later
stimulation is followed by depression,
and during that reaction the other fever
gets a chance, and rarely misses il. The
history of epidemics proves that pyretic
diseases are from eight to twelve times
more destructive among dram drinkers
than among the temperate classes rich
or poor, young or old, abstniners are only
centesimated by diseases that decimate
drunkards. On no other point is the tes-
timony OF physicians oi all schools, all
times and all countries more consistent
aud unanimous.
Is alcohol a peptic stimulant ? Nc
more than Glauber's salt or castor oil.

noxious substance, the bowels are thrown
