Calvi in Corsica has been making a
great to-do about setting up a tablet to
commemorate the birth of Columbus
within its limits. Unfortunately, as one
historian has remarked, Christopher
favorite birthplace was Genoa; at all
events, he seems to have been born there
more frequently than anywhere else, so
Calvi has n bad lookout in this direction.
1t certainly can not rival the tablet let
into the wall of a house 1t Cogoleto,
sixteen miles from Genoa, so far as
grandiloquence is concerned: stop,
traveller. Here Columbus first saw the
light. This too strait house is the house
of a man greater than the world. There
has been but one world. Let there be-

The star of Bethlehem will appear
in 1887. This star only makes its
appearance every 3l5 years. 1t will
appear and illuminate the heavens
and exceed in brilliancy even Jupiter
when in opposition to the sun, and
therefore nearer the earth and bright
est. The marvellous brilliancy of the
star of Bethlehem in 1887 will sur
pass any of its previous visitations.
1t will be seen even by MONDAY,
shining with a quick flashing light
the entire year, atterward it will
gradually decrease in brightness and
finally disappear, not to return to our
heavens until 2lO2, or 3l5 years af.
ter 1887. The star is the same that
illuminated the heavens at the nativ.
ity of Christ.

accordance with the accommodation
OF the Postmaster General instead of
restricting this service to Office in
towns of 1000 inhabitants or more
extends it to every Office in the coun.
ty and to all classes Of mail matter
as well as letters. The postmasters
are to receive eight cents for each let.

what arrangements or contracts they
may desire to secure the prompt de.

The ragicLanternsbow.

For four or five nights, during the
last week, Kingwood's elite has been
entertained(0by real, genuine. ed.
ucatedDmagic lantern "Dr," by the
name Of Hasbrouck. He came here
without recommendation, so far as
we know, and we are of the opinion
that he will leave without one lie
of any force of effect whatever.
The lecturer had no articulation
and the audience could not under
stand more than one-fourth that he
said, therefore, losing about three.
fourth's of the value of the lectures,
If there was any value in them. About
three -fourth's of the lecturers words
were nothing more than an unintel
ligible jargon. AS scholar ESQ far
as we could judge from the few words
we could understand) he is con-
summate fraud. When he spoke OF
tobacky, for tobacco; when he spoke
of st. Heleeny for St. Helena; when
he referred to the Genigh, meaning
the Genii and when he referred to
the Bee-doaoins, meaning the Bed
ouins, we formed very poor opin.
ion of the neutrality-suspicious.
scholastic attachments. There were
many other errors, equally ludicrous,
of which the CDR" was guilty, but
for the sake of charity we will not
advise the public.
He gave the picture of mountain
whereupon ''Moses stood and viewed
the landscape o'er," and in giving the
picture of the old law.giver on the
mountain he had Moses about 900
feet ia height and about 200 feet across
the shoulders. We had no idea be-
fore that old man Moses was such a
good chunk Of boy There were
many other objectionable plumbers
which the educated "Dr," made, to
comment upon which, we have not
the space, nor do we care to spend
so much time upon such colossal
Shylock and fraud. If, in the future,
he should come within the reach of
any of our readers, we advise them
to let him severely alone. We would
especially advise fathers and moth
ers to see that their sons and daugh.
trs are kept from this-what we
would term-disreputable entertain
ment. The picture of the nude WON
an, which was shown here, brought
bushes to many a cheek; and it is
strange that man would not have
enough respect for his mother
enough reverence for the sanctity of
home, to keep such picture off the
screen.

The old testimony as 70 the prac-
tical result Of local option is sadly
borne by the Atlanta, Georgia, papers,
and it is worthy Of consideration by
all classes alike. But 453 arrests
were made in June, the last "weg
month which the city knew. In July
the number had increased TO nearly
600, an increase Of over twenty-five
per cent. Yet in that month no LIQUOR
