The Clerk Saw the Point.

On one OF the excursion steamers
running out of Detroit the other day
the clerk found passenger who had
neither ticket or money. He began to
berate the man for dead beat, telling
him he ought to be ashamed of himself,
ETC.. but the strapped passenger held
up his finger aud said:
''Have | been among the passengers
and thrown out hints that the boilers
of this boat were rather old and liable
to explode?"
mot that know of"
''Have | been around predicting a
storm, and thus detracting from the
pleasure OF the trip"
Haven beard of your doing so"
"IIaye slipped up to this one and
that one to slur your boat for being
slow, and have | said that you were
carrying at least ninety people more
than your license allows? Twice thus
far this boat has neglected to answer
the signals of vessels coming down.
Have l said l would make complaint
under the lawp Have | counted your
life preservers and found the compile
ment short? Have / overhauled your
small boats and found that none of them
could be launchedP"

me for not identifying yon. Just make
yourself at home and ride as far as YOU
please. If you happen downstairs come
to the Office and try some of my cigars"

Pawnbr0kers' Signs.

The pawnbrokers' insignia is under
stood to have its foundation in the arms
of the Medici family, a representative
of which went from Lombardy to Lon
don in the Middle Ages, and, being very
rich, set up business as a banker OF
money lender. The arms of his family
consisted of three gilded pills, which
had direct allusion to their profession
OF medicine. Beside being "doctors"
they were the richest merchants in Flor
ence and the greatest money lenders.
The branch of the family which settled
in London commenced business in Lom-
bard Street. Whether the family arms
were used as sign to attract has rot
been stated, but there seems to be no
question that this was the origin of the
three golden balls now used to indicate
the presence OF pawnbroking estab
lishments. 1t is observed that the bust
ness of lending money on pawns was
carried on in England by Italian mer-
chants or bankers as early, at least, as
the reign of Richard ]. by the II Ed
ward l., a messuage was confirmed to
these traders, where Lombard Street
now stands, but the trade was first rec
ognized in law by James l. The name
Lombard, according to Stow, is con-
traction of Longobards. The Lombard
bankers exercised a monopoly of pawn
broking till the reign of Queen LIZA
beth. Another Interpretation of the
three balls signs is that it indicates that
the pawn-broker eyacts two-thirds col
lateral as security for the one-third
which he lends to the borrower. II has
been otherwise dubbed 1.-THE two to one"

We clip from the Boston Globe the fol-
lowing, which is of interest to the pup
lie:
"The National Association of General
Baggage Agents. which held its semi
annual convention at the Quincy House
in this city last week, made a wise and
sensible move when it passed resoIu-
ton to place posters at all stations re-
questing passengers to have their bag
gage plainly marked with their names
and permanent address. When it is
contemplated that hundreds and even
thousands of pieces of unclaimed bag
gage annually find their way to the
baggage-rooms of the great railroads of
the country, and that. owing to the
carelessness and negligence of passen-
gers, large proportion of it can never
be returned TO its rightful lers, (the
Kansas City, Fort Scott d gulf Rail-
road will sell in September over two
hundred packages of just such sultan
apt illustration of the above), it will
readily be seen that this arrangement
must eventually be the means of pre-
venting much trouble and annoyance
not only to the railroads, but the
LIST, of this year, there were unclaimed.
on the transportation companies hands
of the United States, an estimated num-
Der of 1870, 900 pieces. Calculating that
two per cent. of these were unchecked
and unmarked it leaves 1852 pieces on
which the chances of delivery are very
uncertain. This estimate is very low.
Should be five per cent. at least.-ED.
Said one general baggage agent to our
reporter: i think this move will save
q great deal of trouble to passengers. ;
Another one said: we SHALL of course,
post notices at all stations requesting
passengers to mark their baggage, and
l think they will very generally comply
with the request. Still another one said:
why, if you could see the piles and
stacks of trunks that accumulate. and
few of them having anything to show
where or to whom they belong, YOU can
readily believe that this movement will
be "a mighty good thing for the travelling
public We understand that the Kansas
City, Fort Scott d Gulf Railroad and
the Kansas City, Springfield & Men,
phis Railroad have already posted their
stations per the resolution. and that
station agents are supplied with neatly
printed cards and tags for the purpose
of accommodating passengers who arc
not provided with material. A charge
of not more than five cents each will be
made by baggagemen, which amount is
so SMALL when the additional security
afforded is taken into consideration.
that no one should hesitate. The fac
tories of the country are turning oul
thousands of trunks exactly alike, and
in the rush and confusion generally
attending the checking of baggage it is
a great wonder that more errors are not
made. Should our readers comply
with this oery reasonable request it will
render the loss of their baggage i'm
possible. y

The first names to be found in the pro
fession have strange Dutch and quasi
learned Latin air about them-De Bills
and Clauderius, Ruysch and Swammer-
apothecaries, amateurs and pily-
sicians each Boosting of his own partie-
ular process and contemptuous of the
other and each with his own cabinet
where he kept his specimens, and
whence he jealousy excluded his rival.
OF these Ruysch, the anatomst, was
the most celebrated and the most sue
cessful. Up to his day the Egyptian
process, simplified and modified, but
not materially departed from, had
chiefly continued in repute, and it was
he who introduced an important change
of detail, and conceived and executed
the plan of injecting preservative fluids
into the dead body by the blood-vessels.
A contemporary of Peter the Great, he
carried the art to such perfection that
his specimens were the wonder of the
time in which he lived, and it is even
recorded that the Gar, on seeing the
body of child which he had preserved.
did not detect it was dead, and kissed
it. But he died with his secret undis-
closed, Jealous of it to the last, as they
all were; De Bills. too, departed uncom-
municative; Clauderius, on one occa-
sion, admitted to his cabinet on the
strict understanding that he touch moth

ply it secretly to a specimen, and tast-
lag it, detected the presence of salt.
In England William Hunter followed
the process of Ruysch, making we'll
known use of it with the wife of the &c
centric Martin Van Butchell, who re-
poses to this day in the Museum of the
College of Surgeons; to whose recep-
tons after death many of the most
learned and fashionable of the London
world iiocked in curiosity
Madame van Butchell is no longer
the attraction she once was. She lies,
or rather stands, in an upright case with
a glass lid, in a far-of, locked-up room,
among old bones and dust- picture
frames. Her eyes are su.-k and
the mouth is drawn; her hair is frowsy
and the limbs wofully pinched and
shriveled; but the general outline
of the head and features is dis
tinct enough for recognition, and
the nose retains certain archness and
piquancy very remarkable in lady
vino should have been dust any time
these hundred and ten years past. Next
to her in similar case, stands person
embalmed by Sheldon. She died OF
consumption, just hundred years ago,
and is not at all a pleasant sight. = Corn
