Minister Sargent IRA nsferrod to Russia

Minister Sargent has been transferred from
the Berlin mission to st. Petersburg. The trans
fer is made at his own request, as the unfriend-
illness of Bismarck and the attacks of the Ger
man press have made his residence in Ger
many very disagreable. The Lasker resolution
increased the hostility of the comments of Bis
marck's organs, which were extremely bitter
and severe upon Sargent and the manner in
which he treated the matter. while cordially
approved by this government, rendered his re
lations with Bismarck more unfriendly than
ever. Sargent has the confidence and respect
of the president and secretary of state, but it
was thought that a more efficient man could be
sent to Berlin. The SEN
ate confirmed Mr.. SaTgents
appointment without the formality of referring
it to a committee and Secretary FreluShuy-
sen sent the following telegram to Minister
Sargent.
Sargent, Minister, Berlin: The president
approves entirely your course in the Lasker
matter. You have done nothing but obeyed the
Instructions of this government therein. The
president, thinking itmay be agreeable to you,
nominated yOu as minister 70 St P~eter5burg:
and your nomination, without reference TO any
committee, was Immediately and UNANIMOUSLY
confirmed by the American senate. This ac-
ton manifests appreciation of your worth, and
does you an honor Of which any citizen may
well be proud

A woman who carried around min in
Paris said a naive thing the other day.
One Of the cooks to whom she brought

statement, said: Well, if 1 didn't forget

Ventilation of Sleeping Rooms


No time could be better than the pres.
ent for beginning the practice of house
ventilation by the window, which is still
in the majority of houses, the readiest
and the safest mean Of obtaining a req.
ular and constant supply of fresh air
This practice, begun in warm westhef
may be carried on, with proper care
through autumn and winter. The con.
stantly accommodating impurities derived
from breadth, from Precipitation, from
excreta OF other kinds collected in sleep.
ing rooms, from the use of gas or lamp
light, and too often even now FROM sue
ton ~ofsewage gas from waste pipes by
the heat of house fires, etc., render II
as necessary for health as for comfort
that these should have free egress, and
that they should be substituted by the
pure onter air. Fresh air from without
may very easily be had without drauRht.
and without risk of cold even to delicate
persons, if a few simple rules be OBJ
served. The cold air of winter of courA
enters with greater force and in greater
proportional volume than the o
eQuable summer air into q warm room.
The aperture or egress must be CORE
sp~ondingly diminished. Air from a
window Is preferable to that from
an opened inner door, no mat
ter how roomy the house. from its
more reliable purity. If the window
be the inlet, the fireplace, or IL may be
the door of a room in summer acting "a
an outlet, oil it MAJ be opened from the
extent being regulated according to the
temperature. There is then q direct in.
ward current at the upper part, while.

ling with Sny heated waste products
which require 10 be removed, and an
interrupted current ut the middle, the
previous line of junction of the upper
and lower sashes, both are broken and
diffused by the blinds or curtains Ven
etians for this purpose should be turned
upwards. A window should never be
made to ventilate by opening il from
below, unless the open lower space be
filled up in some way, and ventilation
be carried on at the middle, where the
sashes join; otherwise, draughts are I'M
a%voidable. The ventilatiDg pane is a
hardly less simple and equally efficient
and safe method with either of the 9TH
ers. Window ventilation is especially
bedrooms, and its efficiency or
otherwise cannot iail to affect the vital
powers of the occupant, who, in his
tlumbers, must trust to ether energies
than his W for the removal of those
impurities and morbid germs which his
every breath multiplies around Him.

CarlyIe's First Lore.

This was the time (1SI6-1S) of CaTlyle's
frustrated love for Margaret Gordon, the
'Blumine' of his .Sdrtor Resartas, then
an orphan girl, residing in Kirkcaldy with
her widowed Aberdeenshire aunt. / can
not refrain from the episode of Margaret
Gordon. This girl, interesting long ago to
all inQuirers into Carlyle's biography as the
nameless original of his Blumine, has be-
come even more interesting since tho rev.
citation of her name and the description of
her by Carlyle himself IN his Refainis-
ceRces. Even this description however,
falls far short OF the impression made by
that fragment of her own farewell letter to
Carlysle which Mr.. Froude has published
IN bis Nineteenth Century article on Car
lyle's early life. Nothing finer or nobler
than that letter has come 10 light.
OF ever can come to light in all
Sarlyles correspondence:-And now, nv
dear friend, a long, long adieal. One ad-
vice, and as a parting one, consider. value
1t. Subdue the more extrayagant visions of
the brain. In time your abilities must be
known. Among vour acquaintances they
are already beheld with wonder and de-
light. By those whose opinion may be val
liable they hereafter will be appreciated.
Genius will render you great. May virtue
render you beloved! Remove the awful
distance between you and ordinary men by
kind and gentle Deal gently
with their inferiority, and be convinced
they will respect You as much. and ike you
more. Why conceal the real goodness that
flows in your heart? -. Again adieu! Par
don the freedom / have used, and when you
think of me, be it rs If a kind sister, to
whom your happiness will always yield de-
light, and your griefs sorrow. / give
you not my address, because l dare
not promise to see you" Valuable
as an additional attes.ation OF
the enormous impression made by Carlyle
upon all who came near him even at this
early date, and of the prodigious expecta-
lions entertained of his future career.
these words reveal alse such a character in
the writer himself as almost to compel the
dream of what might have happened if she
had become his wife. That it was real
on both sides is evident. The obstacle was
partly In circumstance. In the opinion OF
her aunt and guardian. and of others.
Margaret Gordon, who, though the
daughter of q poor colonial, and left with
little or nothing, was one of the aristocratic
family of the Aberdeenshire GOrdons,
could not marry a kirkealdy schoolmaster.
Perhaps some dread on her part, arising
from those perceptions of the harder side
OF his character, which she communicated
TO himself so tenderly and fri nkly, may
have aided b separation. Her Il Sc
quent history is known, and could be told
with abundant detail by persons stil living.
She became the wife of Alexander Ban
herman of Aberdeen, a man of note II the
commerce of that city, and Of a family OF
old standing and of landed estates IN the
shire.

CHICAGO, July ia staff correspond
emit Of tho Inter Ocean has been investi-
eating the condition Of the monument ct
Springfield, ILL.,, over tho remains Of
President Lincoln, and that paper will
tomorrow publish four columns Of mat
tor as to its condition. II will charge
the grsvest dishonesty In the perform
anco Of the work, and will give detailed
account Of the defects in the construction,
which, IL is alleged, threaten the caving
in Of the terrace in which tho crypt is
situated, If not the overthrow in the
monument itself. The correspondent
finds that the inner wills are of soft
brick, which are already rotten, and in
many places wood and granite chips are
thrown In to fill spaces which should
have been solid masonry
In February one Of the arches running
the entire length Of tho terrace fell, and
the 6agstones which form the floor Of the
terrace arc held up by timbers put in by
the custodian. This arch has been keyed
up with Pine wedges and chunks of NOR
tar. In places who're the granite blocks
of terrace floor were not long enough to
reach tho wall their inner ends were sup
ported by inch pine boards. Where the
heavy granite columns for the statuary
rest on the terrace they are leveled up
with pine wedges, and the stones are
broken by the unequal weight. Tho inner
walls are loose, and are held up by long
props, now rotting. The heavy stone
over the crypt, in which the remains Of
Tad" Lincoln rest, is supported by pine
boards. The whole terrace on the south
and west sides has been taken out - pre-
vent the heavy stones from falling On tho
coffins below.
