A Prophecy that Ha. Been EnlfiIIed.

From the Baltimore sun.
Senator German once said to Mr.. Tilden
with reference to the election of ls76 "The
general verdict was that our trends did not
display enough firmness on that occasion,
and we lacked sufficient nerve to demand
our rights"
" That was perfectly natural" " replied MIR.
Tilden. Yet / do not regret our conduct
on that occasion, for within eight years every
reasonable person will recognize that 1t was
not possible for our party to take any other
course, as the country was just recovering
from the effects OF a great civil war; and II
would not have been wise to disturb the
peaceful relations then existing between the
people of our land. ] will live to see the day
when every Republican who has any SELF
respect will be heartily ashamed OF the part
he played in that political drama"

New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1886-11-03

The general assembly OF the Protes-
tant Episcopal church in session at
Chicago, embodied a new canon, which
contains several stringent modiica-
tions OF the existing canon, providing
that no marriage of persons under
eighteen years Of age shall be solemniz.
ed unless the parent or guardian be
present or has given written consent,
and that at least two witnesses know
ing the contracting parties be present;
that divorce only be recognized or
granted on the ground of adultery, the
guilty person being forbidden to again
marry during the lifetime of the per-
son from whom he or she was diyorc-
ed. The proposed canon forbids the
remarriage of divorced persons under
certain circumstances, and provides
for penalties to be imposed on the
clergy for any non-observance of the
strict letter of the canon.

Character In Handwriting.

There are people who claim to read
mems characters from their writing.
AS the writing of every nation is dis
tinguished by certain strong national
peculiarities, it is easy for an expert
to decide to what nation writer be-
longs. Having settled that, certain
large characteristics which are COM
mon to all men, but in different de.
grees, can be seen in every handwrit-
ing. A certain number of men are
calm, even-lived, sensible and practi-
cal. Men of that class are almost GER
tain to write plain, round hands in
which every letter is distinctly legible;
neither very much slanted forward
nor tilted backward; no letter very
much bigger than its neighbor, nor
with heads much above or tails much
below the letters not so distinguished;
the letters all having about the same
general uprightness and the lines true
to the edges OF the paper, neither tend
ing upward nor downward. Exact,
business-like people will have an exact
handwriting. Fantastic minds revel
in quirks and streamers, particularly
for the capital letters, and this quail
ty is not infrequent in certain business
hands, as if the writer's found relief
from the prosaic nature of their work
in giving Aourishes to certain letters.
Firm, decided, downright men are apt
to bear on the pen while writing, and
to make their strokes hard and thick.
On the contrary, people who are not
sure of themselves, and are lacking in
self-control, press unevenly, and with
anxious looking, scratchy hands.
Ambitious people are apt to be over
worked; they are always in haste and
either forget to cross their It's or dot
their is. They are also apt to run
the last few letters of every word into
an illegible scrawl. Hurried, troubled
and conscience-twinged persons have
a Grabbed and uneven handwriting.

Some Strange Punishments.

a Boston paper of 1919 describes
the execution Of sentence pronounced
by the Russian courts against an
author who had published some book
on the liberties of the people A scat
fold was erected in the public square;
the car and great magistrates attend
ed. The leaves Of the book
were then rolled up in separate pieces
and the prisoner forced to swallow
them, or literally to eat his own words.
The attending physicians agreeing
when he had enough for one meal, he
was led back to prison. Three un-
pleasant meals finished the last rem
nant of the book.
In Salem the wearing OF long hair
was some time q criminal offense, but
always an abomination for men.
When Endicott was magistrate there
he caused this order to be passed:
"John Gatshell is fyened ten shillings
for building upon the towns ground
without leave, and in case he shall
cut off his long hair OF his head in to
sevill frame Gewel fancy in the meane
time, shall have abated five shillinss

meeting within two months from this
time, and haveleaye to oin his build

When an unfortunate woman was &C
cused of witchcraft she was tied neck
and heels and thrown into pond of
water; If she drowned, it was agreed
that she was no witch; if she swan,
she was Immediately tied to stake
and burned alive.
An Elizabeth Town paper of 1876
gives the following: The Dutch have
mode OF execution which is well cal
culated to inspire terror. without put
ting the sufferer to extraordinary
pain. The criminal is placed on a
scaffold, opposite to the gigantic form
OF a woman, with arms extended, filled
with spikes or long sharpened nails,
and dagger pointed from her breast.
She is gradually moved toward him
by machinery for the purpose till he
gets within her embrace, when her arms
encircle him, and the dagger is press
ed through his heart. This is vulgar
ly aIled among them kissing they throw,
or woman, and excites more terror
in the breasts of the populace than
any other mode of punishment.
