The Gilt-Edge Butter Circle.

Mir. F. K. Phoenix asks if it is "worth while for the maker of 8 very choice brand of butter to try to get into the gilt-edge circle" The best butter maker is known by his fruits--gilt-edge butter, sweet, aromatic, and perfect in all its points, such as firmness, fragrance, texture and flavor. When he comes thus accredited he is at once admitted into the charmed circle and goes up just as high as he can, and no higher than his merit entities him. His judges are his customers, and they are memorable. No pleading will avail to change the verdict. Any taint appearing in his plea (and his product is all there is of this) he is rejected remorselessly, al- though he may be a millionaire and have COWS sired by S10, 900 bull.
 Butter sells for what it is, and this is more than it appears at first sight. The choicest kinds being precious, require a proper setting. In dirty pail or tub they would be despised and rejected. Nor could poor kind pass of in the guise of the neat, attractive package in which the best butter comes to market. There is as good butter now sold in Welsh pails in open market for 26 cents as the fancy dairyman gets 50 and 70 cents for. But those who pay this high price do not want iitty-pouud pail at one time. They want two pounds or fve-pound packages or ons-pound cakes, and to put up butter in this way is well worth 10 cents a pound extra So that to get into the gilt-edge butter business one must make an acceptable article, which he must put up acceptably, and must live so near his customers that he can deliver it fresh and in perfect shape within an hour or two of the time it leaves the dairy.

The Cause Of Sea-Siekuess.

The altered sensory impressions af- fecting those sick at sea interfere with the coordination of movements by which the body is adapted to it's sur roundings, and with the vomiting and other centres in the medulla ohlongata. This interference causes sea-sickness. The coordination of movements de- bends principally on the action of the corpora quadrigemins, the cerebellum, and the medulla oblongata, affected by the ordinary sensory impressions, and also by what Foster calls 'the different impulses, as 1t were, of a new sene. from the semi-circulsr canals, arising from variations of pressure in their am pull@. The pitching or rolling of a ship must cause the pressure on the am- pulle to vary greatly, and thus inter- fere with the ordinary different impulses by which the body is balanced. Con- sciousness can influence the co-ordin at ing mechanism, and set right the con- fused condition caused by the disturbed sensory impressions. This corrective power of the conscious ego may be acquired or strengthened by experience, as is seen every day among the sailors and passengers. In cases where the internal ear has been injured by octor- rhoea following scarlatina or measles, we may suppose that the person learns to balance himself without the interven- ton of this new sense, the absence of which is compensated for in some way; and it is a curious fact, and one which throws considerable light on the eti- ology of sea-sickness, that such persons invariably escape this disease. Twelve such cases of deaf people I have met with in which the deafness was trace able to octorrhea. That deafness in itself does not prevent sea-sickness is in keeping with the fact that the different impulses from the semi circular canals do not give rise to auditory sensations. The cases of those persons who become sea-sick from sleeping on board ship the night before sailing, when she is lying in dock, resemble the hysterical stimulation of other diseases.-T. r Reynolds in Lancet.

THE PROHIBITION CONTENTION,
Gov. St. John, of Kansas, Nominated fol
 PresIdent-The Platform.

In the National Prohibition Convention in session in Pittsburg candidates were placed Tn nomination as follows: Dr. R. H. Mcdonald of California, ex-Gov, John P. St. John of Kansas, Gideon T. Stewart of Ohio, Gen. Clin- ton B. Fisk of New Jersey, and James Black of Pennsylvania. Ex-Governor St. John was unanimously chosen by 602 votes when the roll of the States was called. The enthu- siasm was fervent. The platform was pre- sented and adopted. It contains very caustic review of the Republicans and their candi- dates, and arraigns the Democratic party with severity.
 It is very denunciatory of the liquor traffic and in favor of all money, coin and paper, be- ing made by the Government, and that Con gress should forbid the sale of all intoxicating drinks and that the revenues from liquors and tobaccos should be abolished. Another plank suggests that no State should be admitted into the Union unless it's constitution shall expressly prohibit polygamy.
 Mir. William Daniel, of Maryland, was nomi- mated for Vice President. John P. St. John, the can didate for President, has been prom inent figure in Kansas for fifteen years. He was born in Indiana and studied law. He began practice in Missouri, and after set ting in Kansas became leading Republican. He served in both branches of the Legislature, and two terms as Governor of the State. Later he became prominently identified with the Prohibition party. He endeavored to make the Republicans put prohibition in their platforms, and, failing to do that, cut loose from the party and devoted himself to the temperance cause. He is about 4S years old, and has an interesting family. He is per sonally 6 rather slim, wiry man. He is & fluent, forcible speaker, and has made hun- dreds of temperance speeches.

Formation of Comets.

Professor Young, of Princeton, N. J., (then of Dartmouth, N. H. was the first, in 1872, to obtain evidence of the actual election of matter from the suns interior with velocities sufficing'to carry such matter forever away from him; but the evidence was decisive, and since then kindred observations have been frequently made. What Young saw, indeed, was apparently the ascent of fila ments of hydrogen, at an average rate of nearly two hundred miles per second; but it was easy to see that the irregular streaks of hydrogen were not themselves the ejected matter. If thin gas like hydrogen could rush through the region immediately above the suns visible sur face at the rate of two hundred miles an hour-which reject as incredible-the shape of such hydrogen missiles would be such as to indicate very clearly the resistance they were encountering. They would be pear-shsped, the rounded part of the pear in front, like fire-balls in our air. But these were irregular streaks, like the luminous tracks of meteors, and such doubtless they were. A flight of masses of considerable den. sity must have been shot out on that occasion, and on other occasions when similar phenomena have been observed, and rushing through the hydrogen in the suns neighborhood, caused the gas to glow along their track, just as fre-balls in air leave behind them long luminous trails. The rate at which these missiles advanced could be inferred from the rate at which the luminous trails fol- lowed them. Calculation, in which the suns retarding action was taken duly into account, showed that the matter thus expelled from the sun left his sur face at the rate of not less, probably, than 800 miles per second. The elected matter left the sun, then never to return, and in the form of precisely such flight of meteoric missiles as microscopic and researches had shown to be travelling through the interstellar spaces.-North American ReUieW.

It Was Legitimate.

The brakeman noticed the gushing groom kiss the bride about 200 times, but maintained a serene quiet. Finally the station in question was reached, and just after the whistle sounded the groom gave the bride a rousing smack on the lips, and the brakeman opened the door and shouted: Sawyer SawyerP" What's thatP" responded the groom, looking over his shoulder at the brakeman.

A very neat mot is credited to Judge Grover, in tilt at the bar with Judge Peck. The latter had delivered par. ticularly rasping speech, to which the former felt compelled to reply in kind,
 "Your honor" he said, ''it rained last last night, and this morning, when I took my course across the fields, at al. most every step I came upon some slimy, venomous creature that had is. sued from its hiding-plsce.

Incidents of the PInRue.

Isolated cases of cholera continue to be re- ported in various parts of France, some widely distant from the infected district. A wo- man living at Courbevoie, village only few miles from Paris, was seized with sporadic cholera on Thursday. She was at once conveyed to the hospital, and her lodging was thoroughly disinfected. No ap- prehension of further cases is believed to exist in the community. Two cases of chol- era have occurred at Narbonne and at St. Nazaire, 8 village not far from Toulon, two deaths from that disease have occurred. One of these deaths was of an especially pathetic character. An unknown woman was seized with the dread disease while passing along the street. She fell prostrate to the ground and expired immediately. A pitiable case Is reported from Marseilles. An old wo- man of over seventy years was missing for sev- eral days. The police at last forced an en- trance into her lodging. They found her body upon the floor in such 8 condition that she must have been dead for some days. Exami- nation proved that she was victim of cholera. She had lived almost exclusively on fruit.

A MetamOrphOsed Tramp.

An unknown man whose feet were cut of by freight train at Erie, Penna., turns out to be John Oscar Graham, a graduate of Dublin College, and for merly "a civil engineer in the English ser vice. He says he left Ireland five years ago to acquire wealth in order to carry out a fixed purpose in life, and that the large amount of bills and bonds found in his waistband are the savings of toil. He has been working as day laborer under an assumed name and stole ride rather than draw upon his treasure to pay his fare to Erie. He deposes that the conductor of the Nickel Plate freight deliberately knocked him off running train, raining blows upon him with a lamp.

A Presidents Message.

It was the habit of Sam Houston to
 deliver his messages to the Texan Con- gress orally. A few days before one of his inaugurals a member of Congress said to the President that the body
 would be better pleased if he would pre- pare written messages; that it would be treating them more respectfully to write them out, and, besides, they could then be preserved for future reference. Ac- cordingly, on the day fixed for the inau- guration he appeared with large roll of paper in his hand and tied with blue ribbon and marked in large letters "In- augural." He addressed them with the roll in his hand, waving it gracefully that all might see it, and, concluding with polite bow, handed it to the clerk and walked out of the chamber: when opened it proved to be only blank paper

THE CHOLERA IN EUROPE.
What Distinguished Physician has to Say
 About the Origin of the Disease.

The Toulon correspondent of the Paris Gauiois has had another inter- view with the celebrated Dr. Koch, who sticks to the theory that the cholera is the work of microbes, or microscopic or ganisms, which are taken into the sys- tenn with food and water.
 "All my autopsies," said the doctor, "leave no doubt whatever in regard to the Asiatic character of the plague. I have found precisely the same phenom- ena as were discovered in the cases that I studied in India The microbes were the same, and were more numerous than in cases that have examined in Egypt Messrs. Strauss and Roux, who were present at the autopsies, also recognized in Egypt the presence of the Indian microbe, but it was always accompanied by others; but in the cases in Toulon the Indian microbe has an extraordinary preponderence. In addition to its other destructive qualities this microbe se- cretes a genuine poison, which produces insensibility and brings on the dry ehol- era, which is the most deadly and rapid of all. AS have already said, the con- tamination is not carried in the air, but it is brought about through the absorp- ton of the microbes that infest alimen. tary matter, and particularly water"
 "And this theory" said the Gauioi, correspondent, explains your advice tC the authorities to close the wells, to or der people to drink only water that hac been boiled or taken from distant locali ties ?"
 Precisely" said the doctor. "AnG it is also necessary to take only foot that is well cooked for, bear in mind the microbe dies in high, and abov, all, in dry temperature. The first pre- caution to take is to subject the bed clothing of the victims to high temper ature, with dry air and phenic acid more or less condensed. The mierob, cannot live in condensed solutions O phenic acid or in dry air. It must no be forgotten that it develops and multi plies in humidity. It has been found il the ponds of the countries where chol era exists. Acting upon this theory, advised the closing and thorough heat ing of the apartments infected"
 Correspondent-what is your opinion doctor, as to the origin of the presen epidemic?
 Dr. Koch-I believe it is safe to sa, that, in view of the precautions takei by the navy, the cholera could only hay been brought by sorae merchant vessels probably by an English ship; for O board English vessels there is little scru pie about concealing the deaths durin voyage or about falsifying the books
 The Paris says that German societie have bought up all the phenic acid i the market, aud are now selling it a double it's value, while at the same tim German scientific lectures are bein widely published iu which the use ( phenic acid is strongly recommended 6 preventive against cholera.

A ParIsian SeusntiOU

The body of the we'll known financier yolk- mar was found in the Seine with bullet through the head. His ring, which was a val uable one, and all his money except fifty cen times in the waistcoat pocket were missing. NJ. Volkmar had recently been greatly depressed on account of monetary troubles. He was last seen on Thursday last at midnight in the pa- vilion Henri Quatre, in La Me. St. Germain, with lady with whom he is supposed to have had intimate relations. M Yolkmar went to New York in 1881 and loaned C, 900.
 He then proceeded to London, where he started the Faure Accumlater Company. He sold his share in the company for compara- lively small sum and came to Paris. Here he speculated on the bourse, and despite losses he recently declared that he had a monthly in come of 4,000f. The theory of murder is fa- vored because Volkmar's pistol was found in his residence untouched. If he committed suicide he must needlessly have purchased an other pistol. The affair causes great sensa- ton in Paris

FRED T. FRELINGHUYsEN,
 Secretary of State.

At the meeting of the Cabinet, at Washing ton, it was decided to take prompt and vigor- ous measures to prevent the introduction of cholera into the United States. The State and Treasury Departments will act in conjunction in enforcing the regulations which are to be prepared. An order will be issued prohibiting the importation of rags from all infected coun- tries for period of ninety days or for longer period if deemed necessary. It was also de cided that the vessels of the revenue marine service should establish cordon along the coast to prevent the landing of all vessels from foreign ports which do not possess clean bills of health

TIE CHOLERA IN FRANCE.
All Precautions Proving Intellectual Thus

The public officials of Marseilles have be- come panic stricken because of the failure to check the spread of the cholera and are flee ing. Toulon shopkeepers are closing their es- tablishments. The flight of residents from the town is universal The men sta toned at the arsenal are leaving. The Immigration of the railway stations al Toulon, Marseilles and Paris has been discon- tinued, as it has proved useless precaution. The disease has made it's appearance in the Department of the Lower Alps. and five deaths have already occurred there. The steamer St. Dunstan, which arrived in the Mersey from Marseilles, after losing two persons from chol- era during the voyage, has been twice disin- fected. The stores which she took on board at Marseilles have been destroyed, and her water ballast has been pumped out Vessels arriving at Lisbon from Germany are sub jected to five days quarantine.

novel scheme of assisted emigration has been started in Germany by society composed wholly of noblemen. The society proposes to send indlgent members of noble G rman fam lilies to Chile. All the preliminary plans of the new scheme of philanthropy are now com pleted, and large party of the enigreS will soon arrive st Liverpool. From that port they will be taken to Chile at the expense of the Chilean government, which also agrees to fur ni>h the exiles with land free of charge and to maint ain them all in suitable style for one year from the date of their arrival. If at the end of that time they have not made their fortunes, either in the way of money or matrimony, they will be at liberty to return at their own expense, but the Berlin philantbropists will have no more 10 dc with them.

It cost over S150,000, and was filled with the most inn proved and expensive machinery.
 By this fire over six hundred men and boys will be thrown out of work, and the village of Derringer, which was entirely dependent on the colliery, will be paralyzed It is impossi- ble to learn the origin of the fire.

Decrease of Postal Revenues.

Returns received at the Post Office Depart ment, at Washington, from 159 letter carrier post offices, which produce nearly one-half of the postal revenue, show that the gross re- ceipts for the quarter ended June 30, 1884, were $5 l69, ,052, or $35O 316 6 710per cent less than the receipts from the same offices during the cor responding quarter of the preceding year. On this basis the receipts from all post offices dur ing the quarter would aggregate about 11,000, 900, and the receipts for the year would be about S2,000, 900 less than the re- ceipts for the previous fiscal year. Sixteen offices show increased receipts. The diminu- ton is attributed to the reduction of the letter rate from three to two cents.
