COMING CLOsER.

The opening OF new. line of steamers
between New York and Mexico marks
another movement of Mexico and the
United States into closer commercial
relation. An English writer OF an arti.
Gle which appeared in the Fortnightly
Review few months ago spoke of the
Importance to this country ofthe estab-
lishment of railway communication with
Mexico, saying that it is 'sthe same as
if England should suddenly find Japan
or India on her border and separated
only by the Tweed and an invisible from
tier line." The tropical products Of
Mexico are extremely valuable to the
United States, while the Mexican de-
mand for our manufactures is rapidly in
creasing and may be made a hundred
fold greater. We import more than
$4,000, 900 of Cuban products annually,
and less than $40, 900, 900 of Mexican,
and yet our trade with Mexico ought
greatly to exceed that with Cuba. The
foreign trade of Mexico was not quite
$36, ,500,0 900 in 1880, but the natural re-
sources of the republic and population
of more than 10000, 600 ought to soon
render each thousand OF trade million.
Already the hope of better means of
communication with the United States
has awakened spirit of enterprise among
the Mexicans, and every increase of the
transit facilities between the two coun-
tries will be hailed with joy in each re-
publie.

Milk as Food for Children.
[From the Modern Age,

Wherever milk is used plentifnllv
there the children grow into robust men en-
and women. Whenever the place is
usurped by tea, we have degeneracy
swift and certain. DR.. Ferguson, who
has devoted a large share of his atten-
ton to this subject, has ascertained
from careful measurements of numerous
factory children, that between l3 and IA
years they grow nearly four times as fast
on milk for breakfast and supper as on
tea and coffet--a fact which shows the
benefits of proper diet. No diet is so
suitable for growing children as we'll
cooked oat meal porridge and milk. Ow.
ing to it's easy digestihility it is of euual
benefit to invalids, and more especially
dyspeptics. who often regain heeith and
pick up flesh at wonderfully rapid
rate on milk, or milk and good bread.
Good as cows milk is for children and
invalids, the milk of The goat is much
better;' and it often happens that per-
CONS Will thrive and grow strong on the
latter, who could not digest the former.
For this reason, goats milk is largely
prescribed by the faculty, and would he
more 60 ii 1t were more plentiful. DR..
Pye Chavass says: "The finest, health.
lest children are those who for tho T., 3.
four or five years OF their lives are fed
principally upon it." He also states
that asses'm milk is more valuable for deli.
cate infants; goats milk for strong ones.

LIFE INSURANCE,

Life-insurance companies all over the
country have been greatly interested
in case tried at Norwich, N. Y.
Walter Dwight had been a man of
wealth, but after losing his properly and
going through bankruptcy he effected
insurance on his life amounting to $780,
600, and shortly afterward died. The
payment of a policy amounting to $l5,-
000'was contested on various grounds,
one OF which was that the deceased was
engaged in the, sale of Intoxicating
liquors, another that he was affected
with pulmonary disease, and another
that he committed. suicide, any one of
which would invalidate the policy. The
defense took the ground that he effected
his large amount of insurance on his
life with intent to die and defraud the
companies: After, a trial lasting over
thirty days, and q deliberation on the
evidence of fifty-two hou 8, the jury
brought in verdict for the plaintiff,
deciding all the questions of fact in her
favor. The different insurance compa-
MES interested in the case have COM
blned to carry the case to the United
States supreme court.

THE ROANOKE SEIZED.
Her Sale Declared illegal by the chi-
cago Courts.

CHICAGO, January 4.-The large lake
propeller Roanoke, OF the Chicago ana
Ogdensburg Line, lying in Burlington
slip, has been seized and placed IN pos
session of a custodian. This is but an
other development in the extensive hti-
cation which has characterized the at
fairs of the Ensign estate during the
last six months. Messrs. Holt y
Ensign we're owners of the line,
but the latter died, and his sister,
Mrs. Hamilton, became his heir. a long
litigation followed, and last spring the
Roanoke was alleged to be sold by Holt
to his clerk, j. o. Crissy. The boat was
then transferred to the Ogdensburg
route and. ostensibly run in Crissy's
name, Several months later Mrs. Ham
ilton was given Judgment against the
line for over half million dollars, and
several of the boats were attached by
the sheriff and sold under the hammer.
Holt, in order, it is claimed, to
evade the law, made an assignment
of the entire property to Crissy, driving
all night to an interior village and secur.
ing q decree in some minor court in or
der to steal march on the sheriff. His
scheme fell through, however, as Judge
Daniels, of Buffalo, recently decided
that the assignment was not only illegal,
but that the sale of the Roanoke was
equally so. F. L. Danforth was ap.
pointed by the court to take charge OF
the line, and it was by his order that the
boat was seized.

From the Boston Traveller.

lcron inc Boston Irave!er.J
Mr.. Emerson was once upon time to
read paper before select company of
the cultured. 1t was assumed irf ad-
vance that it would be masterly effort,
and, of course, the newspapers were af.
ter it. When the philosopher mounted
the platform the reporters were all
ready at the tables below, to catch every
word Mr.. Emerson espled them, and
prefaced his paper with request that
no report should be made of his essay,
as he intended to reserve it for laterpub-
lication. Every reporter present save
one put away his paper and pencils.
The one exception fell to work with ap-
parently more energy than if the sage
had not asked him to desist. Mr.. Emerson
glanced inquiringly at him several
times, and at length paused in his dis
course and said:
:" In spite of my request not to be re-
ported, / observe one of the gentlemen
at the press. table is making copious
notes of my paper. Instantly every
eye was turned upon the offending
scribe. But he was not disconnected,
Rising from his seat and looking at Mr.,
Emerson with an air of injured honesty.
he replied: "No, Mr.. Emerson, was
not doing anything of the kind. L was
busy writing on q private work OF my
own." And such was, indeed, the fact.
He was writer of serial stories as we'll
as a news gatherer for the daily press.
But what an estimate of Emersonian
thought he must have had to calmly take
up the thread of his own little tale,
without being in the least distracted by
the unsearchable .utterances of our
great Yankee Greek, /" as Holmes call
ed him. There was sublime deprecia.
ton of Emerson in that reporters per-
formance which Arnold can not hope to
approach.

Where the Old Maids Come In.

"Do you know, sir" inquired an
American tourist of his companion,
while doing England, "can you inform

clover. Do you see the point ?"
Gail but the old maids. They are
still lowering in the shadows"
"Why, don't you see? This red
clover is enriched, sweetened, and
fructi6ed by bumble-bees."
But where do the old maids come
in ?" said the inquisitiye American, wip.
ing his brow YEARLY. -
"Why, it is as plain as the nose on
