Military Berlin.
NIHNNGNN NOH HHs From Blackwood's Magazine.


 One certainly sees more soldiers in the streets of Berlin than in those of London and Paris; but one does not see many of them; and they form altogether but a small minori- ty of the people one meets when walking about Berlin. And that is easy to explain; soldiers do not play at soldering here, as French school-boys have done latterly. Fight ing is considered by the Germans business, or trade, or an art-as you may like to call it-which is to be learned very seriously, and which keeps the young men, who are nolens volens devoted to it, during almost the whole day in their quarters or on the parade ground. As to the officers, they are nearly as much taken up by their work as the most hard working official, mercantile clerk or artisan. The lieutenant of the guards, who has noth- ing to do but to show his fine uniform ln the streets, exists only in the imagination of peo- ple who have never seen him. That aristo- cratic young gentleman generally begins his work at six o'clock in the morning in sum- mer at eight in the winter, and is tired out when at five or six o'clock in the evening he has at last got through it. It is not he, cer- tainIy, who crowds the streets of Berlin. He has other things to do than to walk about even when he happens to be on leave. There is, however, something military to be seen in the streets of Berlin at nearly every hour of the day, which may have struck the Parislan newspaper writer, though it does not belong exclusively to Berlin, but to all the larger German towns where soldiers are garrisoned. Every now and then, especially about noon, you will meet small detachments of soldiers -four, six, perhaps ten or twenty men marching from the guard house to relieve the sentries on duty at the palaces of members of the imperial family, the residences of commanding officers, and certain public

An interesting case has been begun in Cleveland court, where the Western Union Telegraph company has been sued for dam ages account of message which was i'm properly transmitted. The telegram as sent ordered the sale of 18O, 900 bushels of wheat deliverable in February and May, but when it reached Chicago it read in such way as to order the sale of 1000 bushels of wheat and 90, 900 bushels of corn. The telegraph com pany answers to the complaint that the plaintiffs are not dealers in grain and pro- duce as claimed, but are merely the proprie- tors of bucket shop for gambling in market fluctuations. They say that the message was sent from the brokers office by an operator in their employ, and that it was not repeated to insure correct transmission, in which case only would they be responsible. They claim also that the message was simply for the pur- pose of effecting an illegal wager and the entire transaction was for illegal purposes.
 The part of this defence which rests on the character of the transactions to which the message related will strike most people as rather slim. The New York Evening Post in commenting on the case hits the mark WiieiI lI 5dJSs Ho IelSBIuph lpnuloS pIC- bab1y receive thousands of despatches every day just like that involved in this case, covering transactions in stocks and grain to the extent of millions of dollars As long as the parties to such transactions do not un- dertake to repudiate them as immoral or file gal there seems no reason why the telegraph companies should be at liberty to dfstort messages relating to them in airy way they please To encourage them to be negligent in the transmission of messages becatise they relate to puts dt calls or futures would be very 44set public policy tty however, thsy atg t8 be encouraged 8Hght tHeB ti6t tt ieast tS tefHse t8 feeeive sHeh messages itstsad 5t takiH8 tHeH Fiadiy, es thes H8# generally a8t All a8fts sf itHfH8f4i aesBatehes ate H9 dgHbt continually seHt 8Yef ths wife4, bHt the Western HHi9H waHld BFgbaHg s4E th4t ii haa He HlachiHeFy f9F discriminating yiF- tpoHs fr9m iHHl9Fal deeBatehes, especially II they are sent ip ciPheF

 A fine point in accident insurance has just been decided in England. A man fell in an epileptic fit with his face against the ground, and, no one being near, he suffocated. He was insured for $2, 500 in an accidental as- surance association and coroner's jury gave verdict of accidental death, but the courts held that death was due to disease and not to injury by accidental violence.
 Women are fast getting their rights There are a number of women planters in Madison Parish. Louisiana Mrs M A. Gibbs lives on the Hecla plantation, which she manages with great success. Miss Lu Lucas manages a large estate, and personally superintends 8 large force. She spends most of her time in the saddle, and looks after her blows, hoes, drains 1evees, stock and mill. Madame Ames is regarded as the best woman in the parish, owns tract of 1 GOO acres, and has 800 in cultivation this year.
 The attorney general of New York has just given an opinion of general interest with reference to the right of certain citizen to vote. Residence in the State of New Yerk for one year and in the county four months preceding an election is required of voter. The question raised was whether man who had lived two years in the State and had changed his home from one county to anoth- CT, with the intention of remaining there, had forfeited his right to vote by being out of the State most of the time since his change of counties. The attorney general holds, in substance, that the purpose to live in eer- tain place, and not the fact of daily pres ence in the town or city, determines the mat ter of residence.

buildings, such as the ministry of war, the staff office, the arsenal, Scc. These soldiers, preceded by sergeant, walk in the middle of the street with long, regular, quiet steps, almost leisurely. Suddenly sharp word of command is heard. An officer or an imperi- al carriage is in sight. The men all at once seem to have been struck by galvanic bat tery, and from that instant to move under, some strange and irresistible influence. With kind of spasmodic jerk they straighten themselves up to their full height, their heads and shoulders thrown back, their eyes are fixed on one and the same point-the passing officer; the rife is held in firm grasp by the powerful hand, and the feet, violently thrown forward as by machinery, short, regular intervals, loud and yet muf- fled sound, familiar to the native of Berlin, and which causes him to look round toward those from whom if Droceeds

DIR. HARTMAN-Dear Sir: / am
induced by sense OF duty to the
suffering, to make brief statement
of your remarkable cure of myself.
/ was most miserable sufferer from
the various annoyance and distress
ing diseases, which caused me to be
confined to my bed for long time,
being too weak to bear my weight
upon my feet. I was treated by the
most reputable physicians in our
city, each and all saying they could
do nothing for me. / had given up
all hope of ever being we'll again. In
this condition, l began to take your
Manalin and Peruna, and am most
happy to say in three months / was
perfectly well, entirely cured with
out any appliances or support of any
kind. Yours truly,

The Providence Journal calls
attention to some curiosities of
misnomer. Black lead is not
lead at all, but a compound of
carbon and a small quantity of
iron. Brazilian grass never grew
in Brazil, and is not grass; it is
nothing but strips of palm-leaf.
Burgundy pitch is not pitch, and
does not come from burgundy;
the greater part Of it is resin and
palm-oil. Batgut is made from
the entrails of sheep. Cutie
bone is not bone, but a kind of
chalk once enclosed in the fossil
remains of extinct specimens Of
cutie fish. German silver was
not invented in Germany, and
does not contain q particle of sill
yer. Cleopatra's Needle was not
erected by the Egyptian Queen,
nor in her honor. Pompey's pill
er has no historical connection
with Pompey in any way. Seal
ing-wax docs not contain particle
of wax, but is composed of Venice
turpentime, shellac and cinnabar.
The tuberose is no rose, but a
species of pelyanth. The straw
berry is no berry, but only sue
culent receptacle. Turkish baths
did not originate in Turkey, and
are not baths, but heated cham
bers.-Whale- bone is not bone,
and is said not to possess single
property OF bone.

There is no endurable slavery
but that of the heart.

NERVOUSNESS h o moment
there is danger of impairment of the
mind from excessive nervous exhaus-
ton, or where there exists forebod-
ings of evil, a desire for solitude,
stunning and avoiding company,
vertigo and nervous debility, or
when insanity has already taken
place, PERUNA should be implicitly
relied on. But it is never we'll to
wait so long before treatment is COM
menced. The early Symphonic are
loss of strength, softness of the
muscles, dim or weak sight, pecul-
lar expressions of the face and eyes,
coated tongue, with impaired diges-
ton; or in others certain powers
only arc lost, while they are other
wise enjoying comparatively good
health. In all these PERUNA should
at once be taken.

AdrOit Fishers.

The otter is probobly one of
the first fishers. He can swim UNI
der water, or run on the bottom
almost as fast as the fish can swim.
If taken when young, they are
easily tanned, and in some parts
of the world there are people who
train them to hunt fish, as we do
a dog to hunt land game.
Many birds are also expert fish
ers, but / know of none except
the cOrmorant that has been train
ed to do so by man.
There is in Florida bird call
ed the darter-asp species of the he
ron-which has long, sharp bill
1t can swim under the water with
great speed. 1t pursues the fish
and spears it with its pointed bill.
1t Is stated that in some por-
tions of Scotland, the people at
tach baited hooks to the legs of
tame geese and let them 90 into
the lake and fish for pike or pick
erel. When the fish take the hook
the geese become frightened and
make for the shore, where their
owners are ready to receive them
and relieve them of their catch.
Sometimes, when an unusually
large fish becomes attached to the
hook, there is a desperate strug-
gle, and in some instances, the
poor goose is drawn under and
drowned.
