There appear to be a great many
old laws hiding around in different
places which are permitted to remain
in comatose state until circum-
stances arise when it is convenient to
enforce them. The German Govern
ment has recently ordered the expul-
sion Of five German Americans from
the Island of Fair, under law OF
.1841 which had fallen into desuetude
until Bismarck found it useful in a
special case, when it was promptly re-
vived. The law forbids foreigners to
settle or even reside temporarily at a
place without first obtaining permits
sion from the local authorities.

Thelate postmaster Of Philadelphia,
wrote a letter to the employees OF the
postoffice disappearing any a ''testi.
monial'' to him on his retirement.
These so-called testimonials to re-
firing officers are among the greatest
humbugs and abuses of the public
service. The Offering would in this
case, have been spontaneous, but the
retiring Postmaster is quite right in
his disapproval OF assessments OF
clerks, voluntary or involuntary, for
testimonials Or any other purpose, y
as also in his confidence that the kind
feelings of his subordinates can find
sufficient expression without the
stereotyped formalities. TheexampIe
thus set is one that should be fol-
lowed, not only in public Offices but
elsewhere. Any one who knows how
these things are instigated, and
for what object, will be glad to see the
practice discontinued

Charles J. Osborn, a noted New York
broker-46 years old and worth So
100000 died recently from disease
caused by continuous mental excite
ment, accompanied by luxurious
method of life, with wine and stimu-
latlng food to maintain the system
under the exhausting drafts on it's
resources and vitality. All his mature
years were spent in the midst OF the
riot and excitement Of Wall street
speculation. He was wonderfully
lucky, but gnawing and decorating
anxieties must have preyed upon his
mind; the alternate periods of depres-
sion and exaltation in his hopes, his
fears and his fortunes, his constant
torture on the rack of expectation,
wore out his life and dragged him to
a premature grave.

loss of from 100000 to $4,000
