There was chap who kept store,
And though there might be grander,
He sold his goods to all who came,
And his name was Alexander.
He mixed his goods with cunning hand,
He wasa skillful brander:
And since his sugar was half sand
They called him Alox- Sander
He had his dear one, and she came,
And lovingly he scanned her,
He asked her would she change her name
Thena ring did Alex-hand her
"oh! yes" she said, with smiling lip,
"If can be commanders"
And so they formed partnership
And called It Alex-and-he

Titles of the Shah.

The shah certainly has his goodly share
of that peculiar conceit that goes largely
to make up the oriental despot and he
has well defined and rather good sized
ideas as to what is due him and his rank.
He has quite a stock of titles and forms of
address. such as shah, shahinshah king
of kings, khakan IA kadjar title, padi-
shah. alahaczrct (majestyi, which latter is
the formal appellation that he goes by
The usual phrases in addressing him,
however, are "Kaebleh atm point
toward which the earth inclines). and
"Kurban Shalwem" may become your
sacrifice. 1t is not customary to address
the shah in any more direct manner; but
IT, in the course of n conversation, it can
not possibly be avoided, he is not spoken
to as "shoma' you which is the com
mon form Of address in polite Persian but
as to- thou. In his intercourse with
European diplomats the French votre
majestic is employed, being at once inter
preted by the dragoman into one OF the
above Persian phrases, and in addressing
him in writing he is spoken to and of as
votre majeste imperial. Cosmopolitan.

society when one becomes engaged to pre-

which the jeweler rivets on the wrist so

BASEBALL GOSSIP.

Clarkson, the noted Chicago pitcher, says
be would like to see Mike Kelly with Chi
cago uniform i'll light field.
Mr. j. w Spaldng says tho Cincinnatis
will be the showiest team on the ball field
next season, with their many colored uni
forms.
Smiling Mickey Welch will be found with
New York uniform on, Notwithstanding all
rumors to the contrary.
From all appearances the remainder of the
New York combination will sojourn on the
Pacific slope for some time yet. The climate
agrees with them.
There will be an interesting fight between
the Brooklyn and Cincinnati clubs next sea son
for first place However, the chances are il
favor of the latter.
Silver King is looked upon as the star
twirler of the St. Louis Browns for the season
of 1858, and Will be expected to do the bulk
of the work for that club.
Manager Phillips, of tho Pittsburg club,
announces that nearly all his spring dates
have been arranged He has few left, and
any club desiring gaaes should communicate
with him.
The fifty cent gate admission to the Amer
iran association games Is creating quite q
stir in the different cities which contain As

will not be success.
1t is now believed that Manager Williams
will take his Cleveland club south in the
spring. Should he do 50 he viii open at
Macon, Ga, on or about March Is. He will
meet other clubs down there.

work in the box this winter for the st. Louis

gators have little nee,i of the safeguards
muniticently provided upon the coasts Of
their country. The mint, which was es
tablished nearly twenty years ago partly
to obtain relief from the inconvenience of
a foreign metallic currency, and partly to
secure the prestige which belongs to an
independent national coinage, gives char
acteristic evidence Of artistic taste as well
as mechanical dexterity, the gold and
silver tokens being pronounced by connOis-
seurs superior in beauty of design, and at
least equal in workmanship, to those of
any other country. Telegraphs unite
every part of the islands, and it is worth
while to mention that wherever foreigners
dwell, or are likely to penetrate, the
operators are required to speak foreign
languages-a mark of consideration not
found nor looked for in less remote lands.
The postofiice enjoys distinction almost
unparalleled, even in the most advanced

is the only institution of its kind the re-
ceipts of which often so far exceed the
expenses as to contribute materially to
