. A correspondent Of the Norwich Bull
letin writes: "Rev. s. w. Hanks, a
native of Mansfield, Conn, and for
many years District Secretary of the
Seaman's Friend Society, Boston, so
mucla resembles the lamented Abraham
Lincoln that once during the war,
while he was travelling through Yer
mont in the cars, word was sent in adj
vance that Lincoln was on the train.
AT one station he was urged to step on
tho platform, the crowd was so eager to
see their supposed President. But Mr..
Hanks wisely declined the ovation. con-
sidering it too mucha joke for minister
of the Gospel. The mother OF Lincoln
was Hanks. Mfr. Hanks, like Honest
Old Abe, possesses genial tempera
ment, iovial nature, and a true, honest
Christian heart"

One Meal a Day.
From the Newcastle Eng.) Chronicle.


DR.. George Fordyce, the anatomist
and chemical lecturer, was accustomed
to dine every day, for more than twenty
years, at Dolly's chop house, in Queens
Head Passage, Paternoster row. His
researches in comparative anatomy had
led him to conclude that man, through
custom, eats oftener than nature re-
quires, one meal day being sufficient
for that noble animal the lion. He
made the experiment on himself at
his favorite dining house, and finding it
successful he continued the following
regimen for the above term of years: At
4 o'clock, his accustomed dinner hour,
he entered Dolly's chop-house and took
his seat at table always reserved for
him, on which were instantly placed
silver tankard full of strong ale,
a bottle of port wine and a
measure containing quarter
of pint Of brandy. The moment the
waiter announced him the cook put a
pound and half of rump steak on the
gridiron, and en- the table some delicate
trife, as bonne bouche, to serve until
steak was ready. This delicacy was
sometimes half broiled chicken, some
times plate of fish. When he had eat
en- this he took glass Of his brandy, and
then proceeded to devour his steak. We
say deyour, for he always ate as rapidly
as if eating for wager. When he had
finished his meat he took the remainder
of his brandy, having during his dinner
drank the tankard of ale and afterward
drank the bottle of port. The doctor
then adjourned to che Chapter coffee
house In Paternoster row, and stayed
while he slipped glass of brandy and
water. It was then his habit to take an
other at the London coffee house and
third at the Oxford, after which he re-
turned to his house in Essex street,
where he gave his lectures on chemistry.
He made no other meal till his return
next day at 4 o'clock at Dolly's. ~

Flower Bed.

We suggest. that you take the best
spot You can get for q flower bed, rich
and clean, and put in the roots and
seeds Of native plants. Many persons
will be surprised to see how many OF our
neglected plants, which we call weeds,
will thrive with room and cultivation.
The common dandelion, the huttercup,
the pink lowered yarrow and many 9TH
ers will make fine looking plants if CIV
en- proper care, and all the care they
want is room enough in rich mellow
soil. There are but few things in Guilt
vation that make a more graceful plant
for hanging basket than yarrow, if the
stalks are kept cut off so it Will go to

both white and red, are very beautiful
as well as fragrant. Golden rod under:
cultivation, will rival the old princes

Mrs. Fred. DOUGLASS.

The marriage of Fred. Douglass to Miss
Helen M. Pitt, at his home, at Washington,
day before yesterday, has been prolific of
comment here as well as elsewhere 1t is
not generally known, however, that bis
bride accompanied him here to the National
Colored Convention last summer. She was
a tall woman, dark compexioned and with
a decidedly Southern cast of features, which
were rather handsome and striking She
was quietly but elegantly dressed, and in the
best Of taste, her attire being that of a lady
moving in the exclusive circles of the upper
ten. She was quite prominent 4 the Con
vention, though she took no part in the
proceedings. Douglass brought her here
with his parry, among whom were number
of other women, all, besides Miss Pitt,
having more or less negro bood in heir
veins. 1t is not known where they lodged,
but it is to be presumed that his private
Secretary found quarters with the rest of
the party. 1t will be remembered that
Douglass in one Of his speeches in the
Convention inveighed bitterly against mis-
ce9enation He said that the progress of a
race depended mainly upon it's purity and
intermarriage; by destroying that tended
inevitably to its downfall. But as he is a
mulatto himself it is probable that tbs fact,
in connection with the mature charms of his
Secretary, has induced the illustrious negro
to alter his opinions Huntsville Courier ,J0,a-

On The Art OF Enter aiming.

That there Is an art in entertaining ones
friend no one can for moment dispute,
neither can they doubt that such an art is
attainablc by cultivation and care, though
they will probably maintain, and with reason,
that it is gift possessed by comparatively
few people, and that in its spontancity lies
its chief charm. But for people who do not
naturally possess the knack, it is ncccs-
saly to analysc the art, not exactly to lay
down rules, but to offer suggestions and to
try to find out what arc the chief features
of this most enviable accomplishment. And
the object OF this present paper is so to do.
How often on returning from a friends
house have we said, "What a delightful
evening this has been; Mrs A. certainly
possesses the lnack of giving everyone en-
joyment; her manner is charming to alf'
On the other hand we return from a dull
house, where everything is done en- regle, but
where a predominant sense of stupidity,
overwhelms us, and if we are at all sensitive
to eXtelnals, marks us for our own. What
constitutes the difference in these two cases?
Mainly the manner of our hostess. Manner
then, is of the greatest Importance in deter
mining the success or failure of our efforts
for the entertainment of our friends. Some
people taboo what is called good manner;
they maintain that if the motive be good, it
matters little whether the manners be graceful
or rough. Schoolgirls are often of this
opinion; they are SO afraid of being thought
''young ladyish'' or affected that they rush
to the opposite extreme, and think them
selves true and straightforward if rough
and ready. Selfconsciousness and shyness
are often the real cause of this awkward
ness; in trying to be something, they are
unnatural and uneasy: but before experience
these gaucheries disappear, and an easy and
graceful manner is frequently the happy
result Manner may in itself be of two
kinds-the manner which is perfectly we'll
bred, and refined, but withal very chilling,
and the manner into which is infused all
the charm Of a kindly, smshiny, honest
nature, with a sincere regard to please.
On its surface it bears the stamp of truth;
here is no ''mere veneer" no courtesy put
on, but a graciousness of speech and action
which flows from the inner being and is
always there. AS well as MANNER tact, the
happy quality which in women is supposed
to be Unborn, plays a prominent part in the
art Of entertaining. Tact enters into the
feelings of others without showing that it
does so; it anticipates wishes, and gives
them fulilment almost before they are
wishes; in short, it is useful in a thousand
instances, and may well be called another
sense.-Auchland Weekly NewS.

Some Queer Notions.

The old Jewish doctors entertained some
queer notions in regard to fnger-nails, A
fayorite theory was that before Adams fall
the bodies of the first parents were perfectly
transparent, and that the nails are the YES
tige left of mans estate in the garden of
Eden. Instances have been obsel yed of
nails growing on the stumps of amputated
fingers, and when the coffil containing the
corpse of the great Napoleon was opened
long after his death at st. Helena, his toe
nails had grown clear through his boots,
and his hair stuck through the cbinks of the
coffin, -Laramie Boomerang,

take to give Wilmington a Democratic

whose cheeks tinge with modification

case ?
Daily Republican. [volume] ([Wilmington, Del.]) 1874-1890, 1884-06-10

The Republicans carried the city a.

on account of the shameless gerrymau-
der of the wards by q partisan Legi.la-
ture that the City Council is not Re-

Yet, after all there are six Democratic

people did not want a Democratic

by majority " 800 against it, while
the Republican majority for Inspectors
was only -.
The people showed by the large ma
J0rlty they cast against a Democratic
Council that they did not want Water

and handful Of politicians who care
nothing for the rights Of the people, did
want Water Commission, ami they
have got one IN spite Of the protests Of
