 The Norwich Bulletin rises to remark that every senator and representative in the congress of the United States ought to be compelled to take trip to Stonington-at their own expense-and take look at Sol omon L. Barlow in the poorhouse, and there because of their inexcusable and contempti- ble refusal to do single easy act of justice Then they ought to be required to listen to a reading of a full list of similar cases which have occurred in other towns and in other States, before they are allowed to go back to their own easy chairs at the Capitol.
 The Bulletin is entirely right. A hundred years ago the French government paid this country in full all it's claims for damages done by French cruisers to our commerce. Over and over again attempts have been made by presidents, by secretaries, by in- dividual members of congress, to have the money turned over to it's rightful owners, the claimants whose ships were despoiled. Report after report has been made, and every one in favor of doing the right and honest thing. But that right and honest thing hast't been done, though century has elapsed since the claims were made.
 It is astonishing that these just claims can not be justly dealt with. The matter is as scandalous and sad as some of the perform ances of the English court of chancery.

their Lorraine relatives, who had seen them
 retreat, had gone homo, and returned with knives, forks, plates, glasses and hot din- ner. The cloth was laid across the frontier upon patch of smooth grass, and a merry
 picnic was held, each party sitting on it's
 own soil. The German officials stood by the
 whole time, ready to arrest the strangers in
 case they overstepped the imaginary line, but
 they were careful not to do 50.
 The Czar on his recent visit, left f40o for the poor of Berlin, and he gave a very hand some present to his Alexander regiment, and numerous diamond snuff boxes and shower of decorations were distributed, but his gifts seem insignificant when compared with those of his grandfather, the Emperor Nicholas, when he visited England for week in June, 1e44. He gave E2,O0O to the servants at Windsor castle and e1 ,000 to the housekeep- CT; e4,OOO to various charities; $500 annually for cup at Ascot, which was continued until 1854; parure of diamonds worth e2,0O0 to Mime. Brunnow, the wife of his ambassador; twelve gold snuff boxes, with his portrait set in diamonds, among the great officers and lords of the Queens household; twelve gold snuff boxes, with his cipher in diamonds, among the equerries and grooms-in waiting, and literally sackful of brooches, watches, rings and pins which were distributed among the small fry who had been useful to him or in some way connected with his visit.
 The remarkable achievement of sinking a deep shaft through treacherous ground by means of first freezing the earth has been accomplished at Chapin mine, in the upper peninsula, by the Poetsch process. The contract was to freeze, excavate and curb up rectangular shaft 151zx1e11 feet and 100 feet deep. This was done by first putting down the freezing pipes three feet apart in a circle 29 feet in diameter to the depth pro- posed to be reached by the shaft. The pipes were connected at the top and filled with a solution of brine containing about 25 per cent. of calcium chloride. The brine was frozen to point below zero by means of an ice machine, and in forty days a frozen wall of ice, earth and stone was formed ten feet thick. The excavation in the meantime had been going on, and seventy days from the commencement it was completed to the ledge 100 feet down, in spite of some diff culty from the percolation of water near the bottom, which was stopped by freezing. Except for this ingenious method the sinking of the shaft would, it seems, have been prac- tically impossible on account of the great in- flow of water.

Even the watchmen are so shorn of enliven- ment that soldier walks at each side to keep him company; and no sound will fall upon the wakeful strangers ear but the sen. tinella's cry, or the lugubrious notes of some Iorn lover, as beneath his lady's balcony he sighs and sings and thrums the damp, dank strings of his damp, dank guitar.

 A father sued an English schoolmaster for assault, because he had can ed his boy on the hand. The magistrate, before whom it was first tried thought that the father was right. for the reason that caning on the hand was attended by risk of injury, and there were "methods of corporal punishment quite ss available, ehicacious and not necessarily at- tended by any risk, which the defendent might have used." The higher court, though, decided that it was not actionable.
 An alleged case of death from tobacco poison acting on the otherwise diseased heart of an inveterate smoker has of late greatly interested the medical profession of Vienna. At conference on the subject Dr. Favarger has given the following advice to smokers: Never smoke when the stomach is empty. Do not hold tho pipe or cigar continuously in the mouth when smoking, but withdraw it for breathing space between the whiffs. Never smoke foul pipe or cigar holder, and smoke strong and weak cigars alternately. There is no better antidote to nicotine, says Favarger, than tannic acid, which is an ina portant ingredient of red wine as we'll as of tea and coffee. Therefore, says he, lot the smoker who would have the least harm done him by nicotine, drink, when he is smoking, red wine, coffee or tes.
 The Jewish Standard, of London, tells a new story about the slot machine. A Polish Jew, after inspecting a penny oigar-selling automatic machine, determined to do little business with 1t. But of course it was out of the question to pay the price asked. He had always haggled over the price demanded on every other occasion; why shouldn't he nowa So he took half-penny ont of his pocket and, dropping it down the slot, waited for results. When he saw that none came he re- luctantly put another half penny in the slot, saying, "Dere, dere's your money" But as the machine still refused to give out cigar he was dumbfounded. Presently young clerk hustled up, dropped in penny and drew out cigar. 'Shemah Yisroile!" ex- claimed the aggrieved young Hebrew, Chow this machine hates the poor Jews."
 Funny things sometimes happen on the Alsace-Lorraine frontier. The other day family in Lorraine, near the border. expected . party. of relatives from over the line to lunch with them. The French family didn't think it necessary to get passport for such . short visit, but the German officials re- fused to let them cross without 1t. They therefore turned back for q few yards into France, and alighted. In the meanwhile

What wonder that such women go to bed at night fatigued, and wake tired and unrefreshed in the morningl What wonder that they be- come worn out, so to speak, in nerve and vital power What wonder that they have great weakness, exhaustion, pains in back and limbs, together with the distressing fe- male complaints which are always caused by keep about their work long after they real ize that they ought to call themselves sick and remain in bed, held up by the thought that they must do their duty, and so they continue to "work upon their nerves," day after day, until finally there comes utter collapse, and the overworked and exhausted of women is the above true and exact transcript of daily lifea They have worn out and exhausted their nerve force

 The table was bare of covering, but

Its population is perhaps thirty thousand souls. It's wealthier classes are people of very distinguished appearance. In dress, habit and manner I was much struck by their similarity to the Havanese. Immaculate linen, broad hats, extraordinary roliteness, the omnipresent cigar and ciga- matchless teeth and liquid eyes, @ sort of chivalrous ogling by men and responsive flirtations by women, told the unyarying and universal story of dangerous southern life and charac- ter. In form and feature Azoreans are neith- CT so delicate nor classic as the Spanish. If Citizen Trains assertion that "Fat is DeathI" be true, then death turks in these sunny isles. Both men and women are short, plump and over fed in appearance, though glimpses now and then upon street or balco- ny of senhoritas of face and form divine may often be had.

An Italian Hailstorm.

News has just been received here OF
an e1traord binary phenomenon which
occurred a few days ago at Villa
franco, in Piedmont. The peasants
were engaged in the fields in. taking
in the harvest, when suddenly dull
rolling sound was heard, and thesky
became as back as ink. There was
no thunder or lightning, but a few
7hailstones of enormous size fell, some
penetrating into the ground and 9TH
Sers rebounding to a distance ofseyer-
al yards. This preliminary shower
lasted for some minutes, during which
the peasants crept under the carts
and hayracks in the neighbour God.
Some, however, were unable to find
shelter, and when the storm was over
they we're in q pitiable condition,
with blood flowing from theirnumer-
GUS wounds. A bov oil / 5 and a girl
of IL had their skulls fractured and
expired a few hours afterward. More
than hundred persons were badly
hurt. The weight OF some of the
monster hailstones is estimated in
the reports at two pounds. The
crops have been totally destroyed,
many of the trees have been wrecked,
and the roofs of the houses and cot
tages considerably damaged Paris

NEW EVERY MORNING.

Every day is fresh beginning,
Every morn is the world made new,
Ye who are weary of sorrow and suffering,
Here is a beautiful hope for you,
hope for me and a hope you.
All the past things are past and over,
The tasks are done and the tears are shed;
Yesterday s errors let yesterday cover,
Yesterdays wounds which smarted and
Are healed with the healing which night
has shed.
Yesterday now is part OF forever.
Bound up in a sheaf which God holds
tight,
With glad days, and sad days, and bad days
which never
Shall visit US more with their bloom and
their blight,
Their fuiness ofsunshine or sorro wful night.
Let them go, since we cannot reliye them,
Cannot undo and cannot atone;
God in his mercy receive, and forgive them:
Only the new, days are our own
Today is ours and today alone
Here are the skies all FURNISHED brightly,
Here is the spent earth, all reborn:
Here are the tired limbs springing lightly
To face the sun and to share with the morn
In the chrism of dew and the cool of dawn.
Every day is fresh beginning
Listen, my soul, to the glad refrain.
And spite OF old sorrow and older SHINING
And, puzzles forcasted and possible pain.
Take heart with the day and begin again.
Susan Coolidge.

A Fashionable Amusement,

The Chinese Times states that the
annoyance OF having large bricks
dropped from the city wall on the
heads of those passing below is
more and more experienced by for
eigners. Several parties have been
attacked in this way lately, and the
amusement is becoming fashionable.
The bricks OF the Perkin walls are of
great size, and one of them falling on
a mans head from aforty feet height
would most decidedly leave an i'm
preston. One gentlemanjust escaped
one the other day, but the brick
alighted on the head of his horse,
which was felled to the ground.
