and Newspaper Correspondent
LONDON. April 24.-The St. James Gazette
publishes some correspondence that has passed
between Mr. Lowe, the Berlin correspondent of
the London Times. and Doctor Mackenzie re-
earding certain dispatches sent by Mr.. Lowe to
the Times attacking Doctor Mackenzie. Mr..
Lowe wrote to Doctor Mackenzie inclosing
duplicate of his telegram to the Times contain
ing the Cologne Gazette's attack on the English
Doctor, and stating that he should have pre-
fsrred to consult with Doctor Mackenzie before
forwarding the dispatch TO his paper regarding
the accuracy of the Gazette's statements, but he
had been deprived of the means of rendering
such services. He offered TO place himself at
the disposal OF Doctor Mackenzie and Doctor
Howell. Doctor Mackenzie, 10 his reply, &C
cuses Mr.. Lowe of systematically deprsciating
him and Doctor Howell in the Times quoting
attacks upon them by the hostile German press.

services at my disposal declined to receive
and refused to yield TO your fattery then, as
decline to yield 10 your threats now. Many
friends in England aud Germany have written
to me regretting that the Times should be SO
unworthily represented here. I agree with
them"
Mr.. Lowe. in another letter reviewing the
statements of DIR. Mackenzie, says: 1.-THE only
occasion on which the Times was unworthily
represented in Berlin was at the beginning of
November last, when I conhdingly reported the
kilograms you sent from San Reno. and which
were in conflict with the bulletin you signed on
Nov. IL"
DR.. Mackenzie, in answer to this. writes:
sYou were aware that DR.. Fischer long attacked
me privately, and in the Cologne Gazette, and
ought to have waited to hear the other side. /
am aware that FOR months you used the San
Reno incident as pretext for conduct which
was due to much less creditable causes. The
telegram sent you was identical with one
sent to another correspondent who, however,
was intelligent enough to understand it. There
fore his journal WAS not unworthily represent
I'D. Whether you use 1attery or threats. what
self respect you retain is matter OF opinion.

efficient condition than az present. He
disapproved. however, of the present army

The "Machcte" of Central America.

machete is the most priced and the most
used Of any implement. The native al
ways carrig~it with him wherever, when
ever and for whatever he goes. 1t is his
weapon for defense against man and
beast. It cuts his way through the dense
iungles. It Cuts the grass and chop Of the
green corn for his horse or mule. With
it be kills and cytS UP his hogs and beef,
and with it he slices his meat and bread.
1t is his best and most reliable farming

length from eighteen TO twentyfour
inches, and about two inches wide, taper

sometimes, but the machetc always.
With it he clears the briers, the brush and
the long grass, and with a sharp stick or
this same machete he punches holes in the
ground at irregular distances, drops in his
corn, covers it with his heel, and retireS to
the shade for kind nature to 60 the rest,

Highland Vehicles.

Every vehicle in Scotland, especially in
the highlands, is provided with brake.
No pony chaise or village cart is without
one, and to go down the smallest declivity
without using the brake j regarded as
the height. If recklessness as to the dri-
yer, and cruelty as to the horses. It's use
on a four horse coach is plain enough, but
why the pony chaise should have it l. not
so plain. The horses are trotted UP the
hill and walked down, and the American
fashion of walking them up the hill and
trotting them down is esteemed heterodox
in the highest degree.
The Scotch horses and ponies arc strong
and wiry, but like the English horses,
they lack get up and go. They never
seem to be in hurry to be off, and indeed
carry so much more flesh than American
horses that it is no wonder they lack
spirit. The oats on which the horses in
Scotland are so abundantly fed make
them tough. A Scotch pony is probably
the toughest thing there is upon the face
Of The earth. A pony does not necessarily
mean a miniature horse, for ponies are of
all sizes, and some are really imposing,
they are so tall Males, there are none,
and donkeys are rare.--Cor New York

Fats, especially those which arc of easy
digestion, like cod liver oil and sweet
cream, are also essential to the well being

Observation-Disclosures in all nervous
structures contains fat rs an essential con-
stitUent. II is remarkable that most
nervous" individuals have a strong aver
sion to fats rs articles Of diet This is ex-
tromely unfortunate, fer the omission of
fats and oils from the diet tends to not
only continue the nervousness, bat to in
crease the irritGbility and weakness. Cod
liver oil is most valuable medicine III
such cases, because it is already partly
digested by admixtylre with the BILE Sc
creted by the liver Of the fish, and thus
rendered still more easy OF absorption.
The labor of digestion is thus partly taken
away from the tasks to be performed by
the invalid OF course, the fishv odor is
objectionable at first, but this IS generally
easily overcome by continuing its use for
a short time. There are n few prepara
tons on the market in which oil Of some
kind has been partially digested by admix-
ture with pancreatine. Emulsions thus
made are palatable. but much more ex-
penSive than the crude oil.--GlCbe Dem
