Cider in Great Britain,

It is in general use in the western coun- ties, Devonshire, Somersetshire and Here fordshire especially. It is commonly made and drank on the premises; that is to say, there is an orchard on every farm, large or small; and the cider is made for the family use, including the men en- ployed. This is what is called rough cider, and the quality depends on the sit uation and the section. On large farms, or at the squires mansion, it is often, when just made. put into an enormous cask, constructed by professional cooper within the cellar, much too large ever to have been put into or taken out of the cellar, and then drawn off the lees for use; there is no better way of drinking cider than this, case in which the liquor, after having been made, is not moved at all; and your real west country cider thinker likes his cider with no nonsense about it, sometimes giving preference to it when it is what he calls rash-the word being applied to the cider, and not to the thinker, as the ignorant might sup pose. There are many definitions of a gentleman, of which ito set in chimbley cornder, drink zider and cuss" is one to be heard of to the westward.-Saturday Review

Customs of English sportsmen.

When London man is asked down to join shooting party. he would not take his ''loader" with him, as his host would expect to find him loader" for no man loads his own gun in England; it is the duty of q servant. But if he were resid- ing in the country hs would expect to take his "loader" with him, and he could shoot with two guns" that is. he would bring two guns, as the delay of waiting for one to be loaded might lose him fine shot. It is considered great offense in England if man is noisy" when out shooting. loudly talkative or boisterously merry or given to exclamatiols when a bird rises or when bird is missed.

Our Little Knowledge of Greenland.

There are two questions in chief that
 lend romance to Greenland, one of which is akin to the delightful. unsolved problem of an open polar sea. the other having to do with a chapter in the lcelandic settle ment of America before Columbus. whose opening passages we find in the Morse chronicles. but whose sequel no man can read. Nordenskjold has made two at- tempts to break through what he con- siders belt of thick ice surrounding a central part of Greenland not glaciated in the same way. if at all He argues that Greenland is comparatively flat, and does not breed glaciers from central lofty ridge like the Alps; those glaciers which produce icebergs for distribution over the North Atlantic are in his view

MEMORIES OF SHERIDAN.
BOYHcOD, LIFE ON THE PLAINS AND

His First Laure1s at the Gascades-slow
 Promotion-On the Plains After the
 war-The Piegan Controversey-Chicag
 Fire-His First Sentinel Duty.
 In the "reminiscences of Gen. Sheridan with which the papers have lately aboun- ded. one point has been strangely neg lectcd-his life in the far west, both before and since the war. Yet 1t was in Oregon and Texas that he won his first honors, and in Montana that he directed those proceedings against the Piegans which excited the fercest criticism of any of his acts.
 When Brevet Lieut. Philip II. Sheridan left West Point in 1858 his first location was in Texas, where he was in an occa- sional brush with Apaches and Conan ches; but the popular stories of his thrill ing encounters" and hand to hand oom-

suERIDAN's CHICAGO HOUSE.

Sherman was born within an easy day'a walk of Sheridan's early home. end Ulys- ses Grant was born nt Point Pleasant, Clermont county, not far away; while Georgetown, Brown county. in which Grants boyhood was passed, furnished the Union army four generals and a colonel that were graduates of West Point. and nine other prominent con- manders, including Gems. Kautz and Me Groierty. Residents there will tell you that the town also furnished few re- cruits to the Confederate army-''and plenty whose hopes were on that side, but they were too oowardly to fghtp' Grant himself says that the town was not really loyal till John Morgan had gone through the county. Somerset, the homo of the Sheridans, was not so prolific either of greatness or of southern sympa- thizers.
 Gen. Sheridan had a pardonable pride in his rapid rise, and took pleasure in en- couraging ambitious boys, as was shown by an incident.
 When Fred Milngan now well grown lad, who resides with his parents in Rochester, N. Y, was but little fellow he was locally famous for his elocution. ary powers, and had made an especially | SOOA ACp0bdllOu 1OI uAo 1CClGdOlOA VI ''Sheridans Ride" No veterans re- union in the vicinity was completed without Freddie and ''Sheridan's Ride. | When the entertainment committee of 6 i big army reunion that was to be held i1 Rochester knew that the hero of Win chester was to be present, it was decided that the boy should recite the poem dur ing the exercises" of the closing day and that Sheridan should have Q seat or l the platform. At first Sheridan him self did not strongly favor the scheme, bu made no great protest, and the boy cam, on, tingling to his finger tips with excite ment over the fact that he was to recit, before Sheridan. His exaltation was in creased. by the music and the lights ant the flowers to great pitch, and hi effort was to the veterans the most ac ceptable one of the evening. The ap plause of the audience was simply over whelming when the boy had done, an, there were enthusiastic cries of:

 Sheridan was really overcome with emo tion. At first he hesitated to answer tn call, then he rose from his chair at tn back of the platform, stepped to the front

THE BELFRY CHIMES.

Harki merry peal we're ringing, With joyous clash we cleave the air, Gods peace and blessing gayly dinging. Der happy bridal pair. Slowly down the aisle they're passing, Proudly meath the archway gay, Far above sweet music's crashing Heed the warning now we say. ime for sorrow, time for song Comes and goes the heeting breath; ime for sorrow, time for song Life today. tomorrow death. Now changed our note, SO soft and low, As they turn the burial sod, And bowed the mourners weeping go, For soul returned to God. With untitled sob we clang so slowly, As round the grave they kneel and pray. And mingled with those words so holy, Sad our warning still we say: Time for sorrow, time for song Comes and goes the ieeting breath; Time for sorrow, time for song

THE HARRISON FAMny.-Dr. R. A. Brock, the
secretary of the Southern Historical Society, has
made careful search of the records of the Vir-
ginis Harrisons, and SAYS that General Harrison,
the republican Presidential nominee, IS not re,
lated to the regicde Harrison. The first land
grant issued to Harrison says DR.. Brock was 10
Ben Harrison, of 260 acres of land in Isle OF
Wight county, in 1888. There IS no recorded
evidence to SHOW that the Harrisons were entitled
to snv coat of arms, but it is probable they did
adopt a family crest which was not uncommon in
the early days Of this State.
