very peculiar production; it is made in
large flaps, in some cases about yard

advanced state of morning newspapers
they might have them printed on their
bread, SO that they could read the

everything literally. On seeing these
large flaps have often thought that
they must resemble the blacksmith's

standard of Persia; if the bread is not
made after that model they have man.

breakfast the first morning bread that
was made on 4 somewhat later model

of finding a change in this detail of our
daily life on reaching the Indian camp

Mr.. Beecher in Richmond.

In 1877 Rev. Henry Ward Beecher
came to Richmond for the first time
and lectured on Hard Times" 1t
was rather hard times for Mr.. Beecher
in public sentiment at that time, and
he lectured to a house full of men.
He said then that he would live to re-
turn to Richmond and lecture, and to
the ladies rs well as gentlemen. Last
night he did lecture to crowded
house at the theater, and that too, with
as full a proportion of our best ladies
as is generally seen in an audience.
At 8:15 o'clock Mr.. Beecher, accom-
panied by Mr.. Stable, of the theater
management, came out on the stage,
and took q seat on a sofa which was
placed in the center of the stage, flank
ed by two chairs at each end. After
the gas was lighted in the rear of the
fat which hid the rear part of the stage,
Mr.. Stable came forward and, adj
dressing the audience, read a letter
from Mayor Darlington, in which the
writer gave good excuse for having
to ask to be excused from his en-
gagement to introduce Mr.. Beecher.
The mayor took occasion to assure
Mr.. Beecher, to whom the letter was
addressed, of his deep regret at not
being able to be present, and express
ed the hope that the time would yet
come when ne could testify his high
appreciation of the distinguished visi-
tor. "On this account, ladies and gen.
tlemen, have the pleasure of intro
ducing the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher.
who will now proceed to deliver his
lecture" said Mr.. Stable. Mr..
Beecher has not altered any since his
last visit He looks healthy and hap
Ply, and a selt-satisfied smile played
on his jocund face as he came forward
and in a low but distinct and measur-
ed voice said; at gives me great
pleasure to be in Richmond. Many.
many men worthier than desired it
long and died without enjoying it."
He then alluded to the changes that
have taken place, referred to Cleve-
lands election, and said: mot as
matter of form, but with deepest sim
certify the south and north had stretch
ed out hands to each other, and with
their hands had gone their hearts. 1t
had been the earnest desire of his
heart to see this country united. and
that, too, on plane of perfect equali-
tv to all. and that desire had been
realized" This was received with
great applause, as was Mr.. Beecher's |

A Queer Criminal.

Many years ago a man called Rem
wick Williams, but better known as
the Monster" an artificial flower
maker in Soho, was convicted at the
Old Bailey of series of very extra
ordinary and apparently motiveless
outrages upon women. He used to
follow women along the streets, and
then drive a bodkin or .brad-awl, or
penknfe, or some other small cutting
instrument, through her dress. BE
never attacked his victims in the face
or in any vital part, and his conduct
seems to have been the result of some
morbid propensity to inhict pain and
terror. Crime, we are often told, re-
peats itself, and Renwick Williams
would seem to have turned up again
in the peaceful borough which has the
honor of returning to parliament
Messrs. Bradlaugh and Labouchero.
A man. at present unknown and undo
tected, has for the last fortnight been
going about the streets of Northamp-

have been brought to the notice of the
police, and it is generally believed
that many more have occurred--S&

And he handed her two large sheets
of wrapping paper, which she took,
and then stood hesitating and look

rubbers with little movement of
her foot.

And she picked up the parcel contain

the store.
"If that young lady doesn't get
along in the world it won't be for lack
