Wanted: A National Air.

America is as yet unprovided with a
national air possessing the breadth and
dignity worthy of great country.
There are several tunes that by force of
association have been adopted in lieu of
a melody worthy of the dignity.
Hail Columbia" is weak and color
less production. "The Star-Spangled
Banner" is suggestive of horse parade
in circus. my Maryland" is an old
German air of no striking merit. my
Country, IT'S of Thee, is adapted to the
English national air God Save the
Queen" Then we have Dixie, an old
negro tune: John Brown, an old camp
meeting effusion, and the inappropriate
yankee Doodle"
The time has now arrived for some of
our native musicians to devote their best
energies to the production of an air that
shall be worthy of the occasion, and
typical of this great nation.-MatsicaI

Dickens in Hartford.

Dickens, the novelist, on his first
visit to America, came down to Hart
ford in this little steamer in February,
1912. It was an open winter. Dickens
appeared, as he landed from the boat
and was driven up, followed by crowds,
to the City Hotel, like a young Cock
ney swell rather than the man who
had pictured such characters and
scenes as he had done in his world-ad-
mired novels; writer who had already
struck effectual blows at abuses in
society. His hair was long, hanging
down over his coat collar; his gaudy
plaid vest in colors, and his snowy
necktie and fashy jewelry, all were
loud" and jarringly out of harmony
with the idea people had formed of the
author of such character as little
Nell. But his fresh, full-colored, youth
full face had nevertheless certain
stamp of genius. A fine dinner was
given to him at the City Hotel, at which
the conviviality was general. Mr..
Hamersley wrote song for the occa-
sion, which was sung in great eclat-
"The Fine Young English Gentlemen.
Dickens always spoke kindly of Hart
ford. 1t vas here that he first made
the acquaintance of the SHERRY cob
bier" drink of which he spoke in
terms of enthusiastic admiration; and
on the ride to New Haven, he sug-
gested to Mr.. Hamersley more than one
repetition of the delectable compound
the materials of which had been
thoughtfully put aboard of the train.
But it bothered him to remember the
name of the ambrosia. He would in
terrupt a conversation with-"By the
way, what did you say was the name of
that drink we had?" "Was it sherry
cobbler?" said Hamersley. ooh, yes!
Sherry cobbler! Sherry cobbler!"
eagerly exclaimed Dickens-"suppose
we have another?" And "the other"
one was made, every time call was
made for "Reminiscences of Editor

THE London Times was hoaxed q
century ago nearly as badly as in the
present instance by clever gang of
forgers, who got up bogus edition of
the French paper L'Eclair, at that
time recognized as an authority upon
matters of international news. The
paper contained what purported to be
the text of treaty of peace between
the French republic and the Emperor
of Austria. A copy was got into the
hands of the correspondent of the
Times at Dover, and from him went to
London, where the alleged treaty was
published in the Times, and was such
good and unexpected news that the
stock market went up with rush. II
was several days before it was discov-
cred that the paper was forged edi-
ton and had been gotten up BY Lon
don spectators to bring abort . becm

Material In q Steamer.

The amount of material necessary in
the construction of l, 2OO-ton steamer
is simply astonishing. It takes 10000
ineal feet of lumber, twenty-five tons
for hog chains, and IN all fifty tons of
iron, 40 bales of oakum to calk the
seams, and fully 5000 worth of paint.
The cost of such boat at the yards
runs about $50, 900, to which an addi-
tional $25, 900 may be added for fur
nishing. It takes generally about
five months to put up ], 6OO-ton boat,
and it should last ten years with ordi-
nary care. When the hull of boat is
finished, every nook and corner is
filled with salt, about 100 barrels being
used for 1 FOOT ton boat. This is done
to prevent the rotting of the timber,
and, strangely enough, the cabins and
upper works usually decay much sooner
than the hull -GloLe-DemOcrat.

A Pen Portrait Of Bou!aneer.

long table covered with books and pa
pers, but he Immediately arose. came
forward with pleasant "bon jour"
and a hearty grasp of the hand, and
led me to seat. It was the first time
[ had seen him, and 1 observed with
some surprise that he was not in the
least like the published portraits that
are to be seen in every part of Paris.
He has nothing of the dapper look of
the photographs and engravings. His
hair is not dark and nicely combed as
you see it in the pictures in little, :"
but it is iron gray, and it stands
cropped" and erect. His beard, too,
is tawny and slightly mixed with gray.
In physique he is of middle height,
well filled, and neither stout nor slen-
der. He has stronger face and more
intellectual head than the popular Dor
traits credit him withal, and the Ines
in his face are distinctly marked
there is quite a deep line running
across his forehead. His eyes are keen
and gray. His coat was semi-military
In cut, but not in color, for, like his
trousers, it was kind of yellowy
brown.-Pdris letter.

Tins for Sailors.

1. Never sail right in the winds eye,
you might expose yourself to hard
blow.
2. In weighing the anchor see that
your scales are fair. The inspectors
are very strict nowadays.
3. In manning the jolly-boat, be
careful that it is not too jolly, though
it should certainly be tight.
4. Never keep the "dog-watch" on
the "cat-head;" it might bring on q
squal. Do not cover up the dead
lights with the shrouds.
5. Never box the compass until you
have learnt all the spars.
6. Never go to port until dinner-time.
Z. Never hang mutineer by the
yard-arm; hang him by the neck.
8. Ships that go periodically from
one port to another are commonly
called liners" This is hardly happy
term, as a line only has two ends,
whereas every ship has five-viz., fore
and aft, two beam ends, and the end Of
her voyage.
g. There is considerable amount OF
law about nautical affairs. For in
stance, ship is ordered to proceed on
her voyage by a bill of sail; in rough
weather her boats often require to be
be bailed out; her sailors are nearly
always complainants; and when one Of
her masts goes by the board they rig
up jury. All her captains orders are
brief, while the depth of water neces-
sary to float her is her draft. In olden
times many fine vessels were perpetu-
ally in the Fleet, and even nowadays
the best of ships will eventually find
herself in the dock. But perhaps the
most legal aspect of ship is when she
is all in fog.
10. When the helm is @hard up,'
nav her off.

DR.. KAYsER has succeeded in obtain
ing photograph of the aurora borealis
from the summit of Mount Rigi, in
Switzerland. This is an interesting
fact, it having hitherto been regarded
as impossible to photograph the aurora
for want of plate sufficiently sensitive
to be impressed by its rays. Gunther,
in his well-known physical geography,
declares it to be utterly impossible to
photograph the aurora, the most care
fully prepared plate remaining neutral
when exposed to the aurora's rays. DR..
Kayser resorted to special precautions
and employed a colored dry-plate-the

him afterward, and he seemed seriously
embarrassed, while the congregation

An English visitor to this country

willingness to say thank you" for

The question is asked whether it is be-
cause most Americans fancy that it
puts the thanker in a position of in
feriority. Probably the real reason is
a desire to do away with any appear
ance of ceremony, leading to lack of
