A writer in London Truth relates that
when ."Unser Fritz" was guest at the
Tuileries during the exhibition of 1861,
he wished 10 see the interior of the forts
around Paris. But as they were in a
miserable state of defense, it was ar
ranged TO evade complying with his wish
He. however, managed in this wise to do
without All order of admission: For soma
mornings he made early excursions to
distant places. accompanied by French
aide-dc-camp who was placed at his dis
posal. One morning on his way TO the
BiCetre asylum he said TO the officer:
"What If we run up to the fort beside
itr' The aide-de-camp did not see the
harm. and took him not only into it but
into all on the south side of Paris With
his well trained eye the crown prince
saw the military poverty of the land and
the exact defensive capacities of the line

| Tho Outrage Upon the Durham Arch.
deacon of tho Church of England.
! When an officer wants to get up some ex-
citement why can't he follow in the footsteps
OF that madcap captain of the Thirteenth
HusSars. He smashed few things while be
was in Maritzburg, and all out of pure devil
ment, too. don't think the story Of the out
rage on the Durham archdeacon of the Church
of England has ever been fully described. It
is too rich to be forgotten. The archdeacon,
you see, had journeyed up to the city to have
a hand in that perple1ing bishop business,
and put up at the club.
As usual after dinner the captain made
reconnaissance, and on peeping into the read
ing room be beheld a peculiar looking man Of
the church, wearing what is commonly known
as a "tile," occupied intently in reading 6
newspaper. A grin overspread the face Of
the captain, and then he prepared for action
Grasping his walking stick firmly, he with
pantomimic carefulness crept toward the
archdeacon, whose breath was nearly taken
away by voice yelling into his ear, "For
Gods sake, sir, let me smash that hatI"
Quick as thought the startled archdeacon
dropped his paper, snatched his "tile" off his
head, and, placing it carefully under his arm
NNh "a ehO tCoNA VI hAS 'suci So1cu itN--
fully at him, dumb mixed surprise,
anger, and, the captain afterward declared,
with fear. Having at last found voice TO re-
buke the unruly disturber Of his peace-who
laughed at him all the time-he went to the
corner of the fireplace-it was winter-and
sat down there.
The captain had not finished. He simply
ran to the dining room and called to his devil
may-care friends to @come and see a parson
with regular bell-topper." Immediately, as
IL by common consent, the fruit and the nuts
were cleared of the table, and the practical
jokers, ranged in line at the dining room
door, delivered a volley at the unfortunate
'tile, which WIS, Of course, knocked into the
fireplace and so damaged that 1t never went
on the head Of the archdeacon again. One
would have thought that the joke would have
ended here. Not 50. The funny gentlemen,
having seen the effects Of their shots, seized
the reverend visitor and carried him round
and round the room until they had had
enough Of il. They then suddenly dropped
him on the floor, where they left him sore,
but in peace, and considerably shocked and
out Of temper. That same evening the rev.
erend visitor ordered his portmanteaus to be
taken to the C-s, and the club saw him no
more-PaI Mall Gazette.

In the aquarium at Naples the custode
by the waving of a wand makes what
seem small tracts of gravel rise from the
bed Of the tanks, and as they swim away
you see they are fiat fish lin his simulated
English he calls them fat fish,'n like
plaice, marked all over with an exquis-
itely simulated mosaic Of variegated
gravel, quite undistinguishable from that
amid which they take their rest.
Most startling it is when lying in the
nOontide shade of the woods OF southern
Europe to see bits of bright green or dull
gray or russet which you had looked upon
as leaves suddenly seem TO take to them
selves wings and fly away. There is an
insect whose long thin body is a perfect
ditto Of the dry twig on which he perches
and while he perches he flaps his small
diaphanous wings with such rapidity as
TO make them invisible TO the dull senses
of the human observer, more startling
still it is therefore when this seeming twig
finally dashes away into space Butter
flies and moths, too, are often pictures Of
the flowers on which they alight.-Notes

A Warning Against Bad Writing.

Henry Clay. who was a-neat renman,
WAS quite an enthusiast on the subject Of
plain handwriting, and was in the habit
of telling a story in point about a Gin
einnati groceryman who wanted lot Of
cranberries and thought he could get
them cheap in n little Kentucky town. To
this end he wrote to customer at the
place, requesting him to send 100
bushels Of cranberries per Simmons
the name of his teamster. The writing
was so had that the party to whom the
note was addressed could not make out
the word "cranberries" at all, but did
conclude that his correspondent wanted
100 bushels of persimmons, which were
at once gathered and forwarded, much
to the disgust of the Cincinnati man.

We have been asked more than once
whether the queen pays postage like or
binary mortals. She does. Her majesty
gave up her privilege of free postage, We
believe, when Rolwand Hills system was
introduced. So it is right that her nu-
merous correspondents should remember
that when their communications are not
prepaid the royal purse has to pay double
postage, just as the rest of us do. The
queen abandoned her privilege, it is said,
as a graceful acknowledgment of the i'm.

A DANGEROUS SURGICAL OPERATION.
A fatal mistake. At the time DIR. Vance.
of Cleveland, performed the operation on
the lady for the removal of cancer of the
stomach, lie found, when too late, that the
poor woman had no cancer to be removed.
The disease was indigestion, and if she had
taken the Shaker Extract of Roots (Siegers
Syruy), that awful distress at the pit of the
stomach. which made the doctors think she
had cancer, would have been removed.
Distress after eating, dull, heavy feeling in
the head, with pains in the side and back
ali vanish after using this wonderful rem
edy. The tired. languid feeling gives place
10 strength and vigOr.

What We Are Indebted to the South r or.
There appears in our columns today the
advertisement of the well known land uni
versaily used in the southern states, Sim
mons Liver Regulator. Years ago it won
its way into every household in the south
by pure merit Ii there takes the place of
doctor and costly prescriptions. The med
icine is becoming widely known in the
north, and wherever used the demand for il
has steadily increased. Ii is a family
medicine, containing no deleterious quail
ties, but purely vegetable. and so gentle in
its action that il can be safely given to any
person, no matter what age-the centena.-
ian or the Growing youngster. Working
people are often in that miserable state of
health which really renders them unfit for
labor; but they haven't to take medicine
and be sick. Simmons Liver Regulator
can be taken without causing any loss of
time, and the system will be built up and i'll
vigorated by it. The Regulator promotes
digestion, dissipateS nasty sick headache,
and gives strong, full tone to the system.
In malarial climates it is invaluable. both
protecting attack from the disease and eN-
pelling the poison after it has entered the
system. II has no equal as a preparatory
medicine, and can be safely used when a
doctor cannot be called in. Persons of the
very highest character and eminence have
given Simmons Liver Regulator their cor
dial and hearty endorsement.

IF ! KNEW WHAT POETS KNOW.

II knew what poets know,
Would write rhyme
OF the buds that never blow
In the summer time,
Would sing Of golden seeds
Springing up in iron weeds
And of rain drops turned 10 snow
II knew what poets know,
Di1 know what poets do,
Would ! sing a song
Sadder than the pigeons COO
When the days are long'
Where ! found a heart In pain
lwould give it peace again;
And the false should be the true
Did know what poets do.
II Il knew what poets know,
would find theme
Sweeter than the placid flow
OF the fairest dream:
would sing Of love that lives
On the errors il forgives;
And the world would better grow
II knew what poets know.
