~ Shoh''"s
A trihe under 81, 300 was the sum paid
for the lnyette presented by It's grand
mother TO the infant of the Princess
Murat. This seems an almost fabulous
mount to expend on SO tiny an atom of
humanity. but at n glance, or rather an
examination OF, the ~numberless little
garments that compose such a layette,
enables one TO understand how costly an
order becomes when the finest lace and
insertion enter into the fabrication Of
every article OF underclothing, when pet
ficoats and fiannels are covered with
massive embroidery, and robes are OF
Honiton, Valenciennes or Venetian point.
In layettes now nightcaps are de rigueur,
for IL seems to be generally recognized
that during sleep an infants ears should
be kept warm and its head protected
from cold up to the time when nature
provides it n covering. Frillings and
gatherings are, however, abandoned in
favor OF that simple horse-shoe shaped
cap that has a fashion n perpetuite
among the children OF the French,
but which is copied in much more deli
cate materials for English babies.
Many Of the robes owe their beauty to
the lneness OF the needlework, the ILL
putian tucks and inhnitesimal gather
ings, while others are rich in lace and
embroidery. The patterns worked upon
flannel shawls are made more effective
by the introduction OF white chenille into
the flowers and leaves, to mark the vein
ings OF the latter and the centers Of the
former. Cloaks Of iv~ory-colored frise
velvet are superseding those of embroid-
cred cashmere, and with them are worn
soft hoods Of satin or plush edged with
swansdown made to draw close around
the face, and give the warm cosy appear
ance one associates with a babylon
don Queen.

Boston gained the fame of being the
literary center of the countryside
''Athens of America"-not on account
of what publishing houses it had, but
because a large proportion Of its inhab-
itants were literary producers; because
Bostonians, as a class, had more ac-
~quaintance with the interest in literary
affairs than the dwellers in other cities.
Boston is still pre- eminent in this re
spect. Boston writers furnish a large
part of the manuscript that keeps the
New York printers busy, and the ranks
of the writer's resident in New York are
constantly being recruited by men Bos-
ton born and bred.
In Boston, books are written; in New
York, books are made" The literary
work of New York is reporting, editing
and compiling; telling what somebody
did and said and wore, or recombining
other peoples ideas and knowledge in a
form that can be made to sell by the
alert, pushing New York book mer-
chants. Society in New York has lit
tie sympathy with literary workers. The
few who become 'lions" it sometimes
likes to exhibit. 1t gives literary mon
liberal peeuniary rewards by buying
their books, but all except tho lighter
novels and travels stand unread on tho
shelves. Fred. A Fernald in New York

At n meeting Of the French Society Of
Medical Jurisprudence n case was re
ported Of a child who had died-so stated
the certincate-of strangulation, which
had also caused a rupture Of the heart;
and the latter fact was confirmed by the
autopsy. The father of the child WAS nc
cused Of having strangled 1t. and was
placed under arrest. The court was not
satisfied with the medical evidence. and
summoned Professor BrOuArdel, who
stated that the rupture Of n healthy
heart a never take place after strangu-
lation. The professor then exsnined the
heart and found alterations II an aneu-
rism in its wall. The father was at IA
acquitted.-Exchange.

THE THREE BRANCHES OF OUR
COVER NMENT.

The president is firm in his opinions.
He has views of his own, expresses and
sticks to them. His state papers are
croditablc, showing much wisdom. He
stands upon the constitutional division Of
the departments of the eovernment-the
executive, legislative and judicial-inde-
pendent and coordinate branches. When
he sends a nomination to the senate, he
says, he is relieved of the responsibility of
the appointment. The senate may reject
or confirm il. but he thinks there should
be good reasons for rejecting it; and there
should be comfy and good feeling be-
tween the three branches OF the govern
ment When he recommends a measure
to congress his duty ends. He is not to
use his power as the executive to promote
its adoption by congress, The legislative
branch is independent and should not be
interiered with by the executive. When
Andrew jackson was president, the legis-
lati,e branch did not extend this comfy
nor this acknowledgement of indepen-
dence on tie part OF the executive branch;
il made war on the executive, deprived
him, so far as was possible, of his
powers, and put blocks in his way-all on
account of a difference of opinion hen
existing AS to certain public measures.
When Andrew Jackson was president, he
opposed the re-chaptering OF the national
bank, and he set aside all officers within
his reach who opposed his views. He
wanted the United States deposits
to be removed from the bank; and
when his secretary Of the treasury, Mr..
Duane. declined to conform TO his wishes,
President jackson at once dismissed him,
and appointed Mr., fancy in his place,
aud Mr., fancy removed the deposits.
Then the senate struck at Jackson, aud
refused 10 confirm Taney's appointment.
Jackson forced his policy right and left,
openly, squarely, asking no ftvors and
granting none johnson acted largely
upon that idea. So have the subsequent
presidents, to a greater or less degree,
But, after all, we like President Clevc-
lands view, that each departmcnt is co.
ordinate and independent, and that one
must not trench too boldly upon the
other. The constitution seems to require
this. its wisely established checks and bal
ances demand it, Yet the president
should freely express his opinion, as con-
