The new postal card design adopted
| about year ago will soon be superseded
by another, which has been preparing at
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and
which has been formally approved by Post
master-General Villas. When the las:
change Of design was made there vas some
occasion for haste, and there was difficulty
about getting rid Of certain notions about
the card that experience has removed. Mr..
Villas last year took the best of the designs
offered. 1t was an improvement, but still
not entirely satisfactory. The new design
will at once be accepted as an improvement
upon that now in Use. 1t consists of one
piece-l engraving instead of two pieces, as
miniature portrait after the original in
the Sta.c Department, occupies a central
place on the upper third OF the card. Over
this head in light letters are the words
q United States" In panels supported
by scroll-work at the left and
right are the words postal card !"
in distinct letters. Under the head are
the words one cent" and beneath the
border line, inclosing the designation of
value, is the line Nothing but the address
to be on this side" The design is graceful
and light, and its advantage over the old
one is that the idea of putting the stamp
of at one side and the designation of the
article at the opposite side is abandoned to
secure an exclusive design with the strong
est feature of it in the center. The Post
master General may decide TO print the
new cards on white paper. III black ink, for
the reason that white paper furnishes a
better ground for written characters, help
ing the Postoflice clerks who are com
PEELED to decipher addresses, and for the
other reason that the brown ink is COM
plained of by the printers who use it as
more troublesome to obtain good work
with than the same quality Of black ink
As there is stock of about 2, 900, 900 postal
cards now on hand, it is probable that the
new cards will not be out for month or
two.-NeC York Times.

ABUSES IN BURMAH.-The unsatisfactory
manner in which justice is administered
in Upper Burmah has increased the dis
content felt by the Burmese. Upper Bur-
nah has been proclaimed to be, since the
26th of February last, part of British India.
No steps were taken to exclude it from the
operation of the general statutes in force
in India. The Penal Code, the Criminal
Procedure Code and other general Acts
thus came in force. The Burmese have
been repeatedly end emphatically assured
that they would enjoy equal rights with
other Indian subjects of the Queen-Em-
press. The provisions of the various stat
utes which the proclamation brought into
force have, however, been steadily ignored.
The Judges, without the right to try prison.

legally empowered to pass. The right of
appeal secured by Law is denied to prison.
ers in Upper Burmah. If it be necessary
TO suspend laws, it should be done openly
and avowedly. A continuance of the pres
ent system of violating laws which it is
proclaimed are in force is extremely inju-
dicious and injurious. 1t is rapidly de-
stroying confidence in our tribunals. This
is especially the case in Mandalay, where
a large number of educated Burmese reside,
who know to what rights they are legally
entitled, while they see the laws openly

SONG OF THE PRESS.

Judge Holman is OF the opinion that
Z" Mr.. Cleveland would stand q great deal
stronger with the party if he would modify
his views upon civil service laws" So he
would, no doubt; but the fact doesn't
speak well for the Chicago Times.
David B. HILL Governor of New York,
telegraphed to Greystone the remark that
Mr.. Tilden was one of the most illustrious
sons of the State. President Cleveland, not
having the dimensions of Governor Hill
before his eyes, said emphatically that New
York had lost her most distinguished son.

Kentucky is making rapid advances in

paid in Rhode Island or New Jersey, and
certainly speaks volumes for the growing
enterprise and liberality of Mr.. Watterson' S

Mr.. Edmunds, to whose chronic "pestif-
erousness Logan entered decided objec-

the Republican party nominates a = strong

LIVE AND DEAD Ivory" That knife
handle is worth twice as much as the
other" said an ivory dealer TO reporter as
he pointed out two handsome knives in 4
case. They looked exactly alike, so the re-
porter asked in what the difference Law.
Well, one handle is formed of live ivory
and the other of dead" replied the mer-
chant. By live ivory | mean ivory taken
from an animal recently killed. That sort
of ivory is expensive, because it is hard TO
get. 1t is strong because there is life in it,
and it is used for the handles of the best
knives, and where dead ivory could not be
used. When an elephant loses a tusk that
tusk becomes what we call dead ivory. He
sheds the tusk and it has no strength in it.
1t is brittle and breaks easily, and can only
be used for the handles of pocket knives, or
in other forms where the ends are pro-
tected. If they were not the ivory would
split and crack i'll a very short time. The
ivory taken from the tusks of the ante
diluvians mammoths buried in the soil of
Siberia, is, of course, all dead ivory. Its
uses are, therefore, limited. If you ever
want 10 buy any ivory goods be sure to
ascertain whether it is live or dead ivory
before purchasing. If the former, it is
strong and durable; if the latter, it is brittle
and liable to crack, even where fastened
The same rule applies to horn. Deerhorn
and buckhorn, SO commonly used, espe-
cially in the handles, of ocket-kniyes, is
much of it made from the horns shed by
the deer, and of little value. The live horn
is more expensive. ~. 7. Sun.

How They DRINK BEER IN SPAIN.-They
drink beer in curious manner in Spain.
A correspondent of the Hanover Courier
relates how his guide, a Frenchman, by
name of Laboisse, proposed to visit a
brewery, operated by firm with a Ger
man name. 1t was notable for its cool
accommodations. The weather was very
warm, and cool spot as well as q cool
fatherIand's draught, was not to be de-
spised. AS they entered they were con-
fronted by some Andalusian peasants in
their picturesqe costume. They had eyi-
dently come in to the celebration of some
patron saints festival, and wished to graf
ify their curiosity with regard to the new
strange drink styled "cerveza." Two bot
ties iDsecurely corked were brought,
large and a small one, also a soup dish.
into which Laboisse poured the contents of
the larger, which had a beer-iike color.
The contents Of the smaller bottle fol-
lowed, the fluid being of pale, lemonade
color. Laboisse stirred up the mixture be-
fore him with as much soliciiude as
though concocting a pineapple punch.
This was the custom of the country. The
beverage, which sayored more Of fat LEM
onade than of beer, was then drunk out Of
small glasses.-BreigeYS Guardian.

THE SoUTH's EMANcGPATIoN.-The South
is engaged in a rebellion. There can be no
doubt of this, but it is rebellion that COM
mands the admiration of all honorable
people. The fash of the sword has given
place to the flash OF the reapers blade
Where once stood ranks of armed men the
ranks of the stately corn are ranged, whose
arms are lances green, whose plumes the
silken tassels that pledge the coming har-
vests. No bugle call awakes the echoes of
her hills, nor roll of drums resounds in her
valleys. In their place we hear the loco
motives rushing shrek, and the whirr Of
wheels where the weayers toll. No thun-
dering guns shake tears from widows eyes,
nor CORY flags wiring orphans souls. All
no; it is peaceful rebellion; rebellion
against commercial, industrial, intellectual
dependence. Peace, the peace that man
owes to man, is upon us, and every cotton
plant lifts up her emblem in the fields.
This rebellion means life and power and
prosperity for the Southland wisdom. The
emancipation is rapid, but it is none the
less sure. The day is not far off, indeed it
is at hand, when the Southern section will
feed and clothe and educate itself and teach
itself. When the tools her strong sons

nois. There can be no reason why such a
request should not be granted in time.
One Of the prisoners, Adolph Fischer,
when he heard the verdict, is said to have
muttered This is only the origin of an
archy.' He made mistake. This is the
end of anarchy
The Horld, in an article headed " The
Triumph of Law says: Through no
feelings Of revengeful character, but
through q deep sense that circumstances
demand it, the people of The United States
will commend the verdict of the jury in
the trial of the Chicago Anarchists. They
will do this because it was justified by the
evidence and because it was necessary that
the status of the peculiar crime involved
should be distinctly and emphatically
established by the Courts. In no other
way could the fact be so effectively set
forth, both at home and abroad, that the
laws Of this country are adequate to meet
this imported description of murder. We

SCIENCE N AMERICA.
A Compliment Paid to this Country by Il
Prominent Englishmau.


In his pleading for more State recogni-
ton of science, Sir Lyon Playfair, the Presi-
dent of the British Association at Aber-
deem, pointed out the present activity of
Germany and France, and especially of the
United States
Both France and Germany make ener-
getic efforts to advance science with the aid
of their national resources. More remark
able is it to see young nation like the
United States reserving 150 100000 acres of
national land for the promotion of scientific
education. In some respects this young
country is in advance of all European ma
tons in joining science to its administra-
tive offices. Its scientific publications,
like the great archaeological work, en-
bodying the researches of Professor Marsh
ald his associates in the geological survey,
are an example to other Governments. The
Minister of Agriculture is surrounded with
staff of botanists and chemists. The
Home Secretary is aided by special scien-
tiic commission to investigate the habits,
mgrations and food of fishes, and the lat
te. has at its disposal two specially con-
stiucted steamers of large tonnage.
The United States aud Great Britain
promote fisheries on distinct systems. In
This country we are perpetually issuing ex-
pensive commissions to visit the coasts in
order to ascertain the experiences of fisher
men. | have acted as Chairman of one of
these royal commissions, and found that
the fishermen, having only knowledge of
q small area, gave the most contradictory
and unsatisfactory evidence. In America
the questions are put to nature, and not
fishermen. Exact and searching inyestiga-
tions are made into the life history of the
fishes, into the temperature of the sea in
which they live and spawn; into the ma
tuge of their food, and into the habits
OF their natural enemies. For this pur-
pose the Government gives the co-opera-
ton of the navy, and provides the commits
sion with corps of skilled naturalists,
some of whom go out with the steamships
and others work in the biological labora-
tories at Woods Hole Massachusetts, or
Washington. IS The practical re-
suits flowing from these scientific investi-
cations have been important. The inland
waters and rivers have been stocked with
fish Of the best and most suitable kinds.
Even the great ocean which washes the
coasts OF the United States is beginning to
be affected by the knowledge thus acquired,
and sensible result is already produced
upon the most important of its fisheries
The United Kingdom largely depends upon
its fisheries but as yet our own Government
has scarcely realized the value of such
scientific investigations as those pursued
with success by the United States"

GREEN SLIME IN TANKs.-Some one asks
how to prevent green slime from collecting
on inside walls of water tank. My tank,
for several years, was troubled the same
way, and had to be frequently cleaned, and
at length L chanced upon what seems, after
two years, to be the remedy. 1t is forcing
air through the water. At first the feed
pipe to the tank discharged upon the sur
face of the water, and there was very little
disturbance. Then the pipe was changed
so as to enter the tank at the bottom, and
as the windmill is on slightly higher
ground than the tank, the forcing in of the
water by the pump carries with it large
amount of air, SO that when the tank
is being filed the water boils and bubbles
at great rate. Since that time the tank
has been perfectly free from slime, and
after two years hes not required 10 be
cleaned even once, and colony of brook
fish have kept it free from "wigglersn of all
sorts, and seem to have made fair growth,
though fed very infrequently.-Co County
Gentleman.

Evad.ng the Chinese Restriction Act.


New YORK, August 20th.-YGur CORE
spondent learned recently that the pro-
visions of the Restriction Act were being
openly violated here now more than
ever before. 4 natUralized Chinamau was
employed to look the matters up, and from
him the following facts were cleaned: The
firm of Kwon Yen Lung Il Co., grocery and
tea merchants, of Mott street, have
posted on the door of their store
the following sign in Chinese characters:
" For 500 we guarantee 10 get any China
man flom China into the United States"
Kwon Yen Lnng has an agent who calls
himself W. S. Charles. He is naturaliZed
Chinaman, married to an Irish woman.
He is known throughout Chinatown
as a quick-witted chap, who has q strong
backing from some source. lie claims to
have influential friends in San Francisco
and in this city, who cooperate with him
in bringing in Cinnamon who have no
right to land under the law. He says he
gets them here through the port of Vie
toria, b. c. Yu Sing, q prominent Chinese
grocer here, makes 10 secret OF the fact
that he smuggles Chinese through. He
goes so far as TO declare that money is paid
10 the Custom house officers to have
their papers declared all right. A ma
jority of the new arrivals represent
themselves as tea, silk or rice merchants.
Nine out of ten are laundry men. Money
to start laundrles is advanced them by the
grocery firms, and a high rate of interest
is charged, not unfrequently a hundred
per cent. being extorted. inducements
are held out to Cinnamon that if they will
come here they can have their own laun-
dry inside of one year. This has had the
effect of increasing the arrivals, and at the
lowest estimate, LOCO Cinnamon have been
smuggled into New York since the passage
of the Restriction Act, who belonged to the
prohibited class. They are mostly located
in the Sixth Wald, which is known as the
Chinese quarter.

When vessels or timber sink to great
depths in the ocean, the pressure is so
great that the water is forced into the pores,
and the wood becomes too heavy to rise
again. 1t is this pressure that makes it
impossible for divers to descend to any
great depth.
