Belisarius was Roman general in the
Emperor Justinian's reign, who ended
the war in which that prince was engaged
with the Persians. In 533 he took Garth
age, and made prisoner Gilimer, King of
the Nandals. He was next sent against
the Cloths, in Italy and, arriving on the
coasts of Sicily, he took Catania, Syracuse
Palermo and other places. He then pro-
ceeded to Naples, which ne took, and
marched to Rome. After this he con-
quered Nitiges, King of the Goths, and
sent him to Constantinople, at the same
time refusing the crown, which was offered
him. For these great exploits he was
selected sole Consul iii 535 and was
regarded as the savior of the Empire; and
medals are still eXtant which bear this
inscription Belisarius gloria Roman
Drum. He was soon obliged to go
into the East against Chosroes l., King of
Persia and, having succeeded he returned
to Italy, whence he expelled the Huns in
55S. In 563 Belisarius was accused of par
ticipating i'll q conspiracy against the En-
peror. who imprisoned him and confisca-
ted his estates TO which. however he was
shortly restored. The tradition that he
was deprived of his eyes is not authentic
and the story Of his begging charity with
" Date Obolum Belisario' is said in Lem
priere's Classical Dictionary to be a mere
fable, taking its rise from some verses of
Tzetes. Nevertheless this tradition is wisely
made use of by poets and painters, and
Donizetti's opera, Belisario, is built on
the same legend. He was born at Ger
mania, in Illyria, about sos, and died in
500. Belisarius married, in 527, Antonina,
an actress of abandoned character, who ex-
ercised great influence over him. and
doubtless was the cause of the worst pas
sages of his life.

THE SHARON CASE ONCE MORE.

The decision of the Supreme Court in
the Sharon-IIill case by which it takes
jurisdiction of divorce case on appeal.
and also Of an order for alimony and pay
ment of counsel fees, seems to have created
some surprise, but why, we confess ina
bility to comprehend The final tribunal
has for all its years heard divorce cases on
appeal, and heard them as causes in
equity; As the Court itself says, the Sharon
case is the first in which its appellate juris-
dietion in divorce has been sharply qucs-
toned. 1t is mthinkable that in nearly
every other case imaginable except in case
of judgment for dissolution of the bonds
Of matrimony there should be no appeal.
The raising of the question is in keeping
with the amazing character of the whole
case, which has been, from the outset, one
Of insuferable nastiness and absurd sur
prises. The Court holds that when an or
der for aimony partakes Of the nature of
4 final Judgment it IS appealable Com
mon sense views of the constitutional
authority Of the Court prevent any other
conclusion being reached. That the iudg-
ment for divorce was withheld until the or
der Tor alimony was entered up, does not so
separate these acts as to prevent the latter
being in effect a final Judgment, and 50
holding, the Court recognizes an appeal
There is enough of record in this matter of
entering first the order and then the judg-
nent-the very reverse of the usual prac-
tiee-and in keeping the order for alimony
and counsel fees ont of the form of the
final Judgment for divorce to justify the
inference that the Superior Court purpose
fully attempted to prevent an APP
peal being taken on the money
issues. We are not prepared to question
the sincerity of this purpose. 1t may
have been in support Of the belief of the
Court that such an order is not appeala-
bic However that may ne, it has now, in
the light Of the decision of the Supreme
Court, the appearance of purpose that
the appellate Court holds cannot be to-
Grated The order for alimony, though
made distinct from the final Judgment,
was, say the Court, final As to the matter
adiudicated upon, and being for the pay
ment of money and eniorcible by issuance
of an execution and made in a case in
equity, is appealable. The Sharon-Hill
case, by this decision, takes on new lease
of life. But we apprehend that its future
will be very different from its past. The
underpining has been mostly cut away
from the plaintiffs case. No one believes
that in a case so bristling with errors, the
appellate Court Will affirm the Judgment
of the Court below With half her leading
witnesses confessing to perjury and conspir-
acy. the plaintiff has small footing for any
new assault upon Sharon. The only peo-
nile who have touched his money thus far
are those of his own side and the raseally
clerk of the plaintiffs lawyer, who has
cleared out to foreign parts with his i'll
gotten gains and is spending them with
the usual liberality Of those who easy

GRACE AT THE RESTAURANT TABLE.-A
clerk and his country father entered the
restaurant, the other evening, and took
seats at table where sat telegraph oper-
ator and a reporter The old man bowed
his head, and was about to say grace, when
a waiter flew up, singing: I" l have beef
steak, Goldfish balls and bullheads" Father
and son gave their orders, and the former
again bowed his head. The young man
turned the color of a blood-red beet, and
touching his parents arm. exclaimed in a
low, nervous tone: Father, it isn't Gus
tomary to do thatin restaurants ~ Its Gus
tomary with me to return thanks to God
wherever | am" said the old man. For the
third time he bowed his head, and the tele-
graph operator paused in the act of carving
his beefsteak and bowed his head and the
journalist put back his fish ball and bowed
his head, and there wasn't man who
heard the short and simple prayer that
didn't feel profounder respect for the old
farmer than if he had been President of the
United States.-[Syraeuse Standard.

G. w. CABLE At HoME.-Of the novelist
Cable, and his home in New Orleans, Mrs
Emily Pierce writes in the Washington
Capital. In his literary labors, George
w. Cable is marvel of neatness. His
chirography resembles a Spencerian copy
book, and every manuscript is carefully
copied by letter-press. neatly bound and
laid away upon the shelves of his library.
His study is rather dull room, and sug-
gests a workshop. Two low bookcases,
both meagre and plain, an ugly, high desk
and map of Louisiana are opposite the
open crate, above which hangs strong
head of Homer. On the mantel stands a
bust Of Clytie. Some etchings and sketches
suggest the taste OF the master, while
well-worn Webster's Dictionary hints that
heisnot beyond the needs of his fellow-man.
The only attractive spot is the low window
dividing the book-shelves, where the
broad seat among the cushions suggests
dreams of the old Creole days Cable was
compelled TO leave school at the age of il,
and aid in supporting the family. During
his leisure hours in the Confederate service
in war times he made critical study of
the Bible, mathematics and Latin gram
mar After the war he accepted position
as errand-boy for a mercantile house in
New Orleans. He studied civil engineer
ing, and was for time engaged in a State
surveying expedition. y Testers Sunday

A MONUMENT OF THE PLANT WORLD
Adanson found trees of the baobab species
in Africa, which he computed TO be $3.50
years old; and De Candolle has reported
the deciduous cypress of Mexico to reach
still greater age. The Oldest individual
specimen of any species-in fact, the Oldest
living thing upon the globe-is probably
the cypress of Santa Maria del Tule, in the
Mexican State of 0axaca. If estimates OF
tree ages are to be relied upon, the life OF
this venerable forest monarch may have
SPAWNED the whole period of written his
tory. At last accounts ii was still growing,

business of selling white children to the
Chinese, 1t alleges that there are white
children now held in slavery in the Chi

Mrs DUDLEY has been acquitted of the
charge of shooting ODonovan Rosa, on
the ground of insanity. OF her insanity
there is no one who now entertains a
doubt, but it was very cunning in its
method The shooting of ODonovan Rosa
was one of its manifestations, of course,
but how strange it is that such a person
should have selected Just such a victim at
Just such time, And how strange it is
too that Mrs. Dudley should advance in
her defense precisely the same line Of
reasoning for justification that Rosa pro-
iects constantly into his debates in
justification OF his dynamite policy. Since
Mrs. Dudley was insane when She shot
Rosa, and since the act was not there
