Growth Of an Old World City.

It is not, we believe, generally known
that Admiral Sir William DoweIl, Com.
mander-in- Chief of the English fleet on
the China station, is the officer who. as
Midshipman Dowell, first planted the
English flag on the Island of Hong
Kong forty-three years ago. 1t Is al
most impossible to believe that, in less
than fifty years, a virtually desert
island should have been converted into
such place as Hong Kong now is.
The present Governor of the Colony,
Sir George Bowen, in speech which
be made shortly after his arrival in
China, drew attention to the remark
able fact that after London, Liverpool
and Glasgow, the tonnage OF the ship
ping which visits Victoria Harbor every
year is larger than the figure for any
other harbor in her Ma esty's domin-
ions. We hear great deal OF wonder

JUSTIN s. MORRILL,. of Vermont, is
the oldest United States Senator, says
Washington correspondent. He will
be 70 years of age next April. He has
had as long continuous service in Con-
gress as either Clay or Benton, and
longer than any one at present in pub
lie life. He has been in Congress since
1856. He was member of the House
from that period until 1867. He has
been IN the Senate ever since. He has
been recently reelected for another
Senatorial term. III he should live to
the end of that term he would be 81
years old. This would give him a rec
ord of thirty-five years in Congress.
This is longer record of continuous
service than any one has yet made in
our history. There is no reason why
he should not live to the end of his
term and even longer. The Senator is
in most excellent health, and looks
fully as young to-day as many men in
the Senate fifteen years younger than
he. He appears to have better lease
of life than his colleague, who is nearly
twenty years younger than he. A
stranger would not think that there
was much difference between the ages
OF the Vermont Senators.

MICHAEL DAvITT has written pa
thetic description of the liberation of O
pet blackbird which had shared with
him his prison life. For many months
the feathered companion had relieved
the tedium of his solitude, but he felt
ut last that he owed his little friend the
right of liberty. He says: at was a
day which would fill ones whole being
with yearning to be Hberated-a day
of sunshine. and warmth, and beauty,
and the moment had arrived when rsy
resolution to give freedom to my little
feathered chum' could no longer be
selfshly postponed. 1 opened his door
with trembling hand, when quick as
fash of lightning he rushed from the
cage with wild scream of delight, and
in moment was beyond the walls
of the prisonl The instinct of freedom
was too powerful to be resisted, though
1 had INDUCED the fond hope that he
would have remained with me. But
he taught me the lesson which can
never be unlearned by either country,
prison, or bird-that nature will not
be denied, and that liberty is more to
be desired than letters of gold"

The Current: It is astonishing that
the taxpayers, whose property Is ex-
posed to the cupidity of disaffected
and indolent men, should often aban-
don to the liberality and public spirit
of mere lads the business of guarding
the whole fabric of society, and paying
the full cost of that expensive vigil.
The law in Michigan, for instance, is
such that when the Governor calls out
the militia the young men have to ad-
vance the money for both rations and
transportation, and the home county
is dunned for the bill at some subse-
quent time, payable, probably, in
county orders. The selfishness of men
finds few more striking examples than
are afforded in the present status of
the militia in States like Illinois and
Michigan, where no one can deny the
utility of armed organization in the
interest both Of property rights and of
protection to unarmed men and women
and children.

The old yellow postal notes, by an
order about to be issued by the Post
master General, viii soon be thing OF
the past. They have been source of
great annoyance and trouble. The pa
per on which they were printed was not
safety paper, but sort of waterproof
material, from which CASTLE soap and
water would remove the writing ink.
This permitted shrewd counterfeiters to
~raise" them, which was done to some
extent in the West. The discovery OF
several cases created much excitement
last month, probably more than the
facts warranted. Since May last the
new notes. printed on lilac paper, have
been in use by the order Of the Post

ones were put out. There have re-

For several years past Stanley Day,
o machinist employed in the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Railroad
shops at Holstervifle, Pa, had been
complaining of excessive pains in the
stomach. Physicians prescriptions did
him no good, and some time ago he
was compelled to quit work, and since
that he has been confined to the house.
As last resort he took dose of
warm medicine. Directly afterward
he was relieved of twenty-five crabs
of the water species and milk snake
thirteen inches in length. He is inn

Day says that about two years ago he
drank from we'll in the dank, and
probably swallowed the crabs and
