American Advertising.

Advertising as a high art may he said to
date from the centennial Of 1876, when public
interest was reused in the cause of art educa-
ton, and native draughtsmen developed rap
idly, and the electro, process of reproduction
undiscovered, leading to skillful illustration,
in which the American magazine and press
now lead the world The irreverence of the
American people, which the foreigner cen
sures is the very loophole through which
their genius is becoming most widely known.

marks copies of the works of the best ancient
and modern paintersl Does not the first

High Priced Religious Worship.

There are 22O pewS, holding an average of
six persons each, in the Temple Beth Emeth
These are divided info nine classes, ranging
in value from 81 SO to 5000 pew The pew
holders, 50 long as they hold the sittings
have to pay pro rata SUMS annually after the
sale for the running expenses of the syna
gogue: that is to say, if the assessment. of the
seat is 10 per cent. the holder of a 5000 pew
must pay $50 for each years Use of that pew
Even in the different classes there are pre-
ferred places, and those who secure the ia
voretl places have Opay premium On them
Ninety-tive pews recently sold at auction,
for which SS5, C0U was realized The sale of
800, 500 and $500 pews was postponed one
week The sum realized for the high priced
seats was double what was anticipated The
81 800 ones, eight in number, were all taken
and nearly all of the lower grades sold The
premiums paid during the sale ranged from
s25 to 500 Sixteen pews were disposed of
At 81 $50 each, and twenty of the 81 900 pews
were sold The interest on the value of the
seats was about per cent. to every pew
holder. Albany Evening Journal

A buffer.

This curious word is commonly used in the
sense, think, in which mutf was formerly
more often used than now. | remember 1t
striking me as a novelty some time about: SIS.
But, on a reperusal of 'Pendennis," published
in 1880, it appeared to me again, employed
seriously, in the following passage vol 2,
page 2l6l: Col Altamoat had made pur"
chase of cigars and French silks from some
duffer in Fleet street" Halliwell gives ''duf.
fer-a peddler: applied exclusively to one
who sells women's clotheS-South." Mares
is silent on the subject; but Grose
explains buffers as "cheats who ply
in different parts of the town, par.
tfcularly about Water lane, opposite st.
Clements church, in the Strand, and pretend
to deal in struggled goods, stopping all coun-
try people, or such as they think they can
impose on, which they frequently do by sell
ing them Spitalfelds goods at double their
current price" This really seems to be the
sense in which Thackeray understood the
term when he used it as quoted above. Did,
then, the modern sense come out of thiSl If
50, it is somewhat strange that it should have
come to be applied to tho innocent instead of
to the deceivers, as if one said flats instead OF
fiat catchers The adjective dufllng is also
now commonly applied to that which is i'm
perfect, unsatisfactory, or inferior in quality

The Difference.

a little tot of boy sat in the Fourteenth
strset ferry house last evening surrounded by
papers he had to sell.
His eyelids grew heavy. The winls were
frequent and finally he fell over on his side
fast asleep His left arm served for a pillow
AMI his right leg lay gracefully over his left.
The flies had merry time frisking over
the little fellows face and bare feet
Any one could have taken his papers with
out paying for them, but customers picked
them up and threw down their pennies, while
tho boy slept on.
Two motherly looking women saw him.
"Oh, the dear little fellow" said one; hes
all tired out"
Perhaps the women had little boys of their
own at home and were glad they were not
compelled 10 sell papers for living.
BE careful and not wake him up" said
the other woman, and she stood over him
and famed the flies away
A ferrvman in blue clothes and brass but
tons came along He looked like Il giant he
side the little sleeper.
Pushing the women aside, the big man
shook the little hoy roughly and told bin TO
get up and attend to business.
The incident illustrated the difference be-
tween the gentle, sympathetic nature of a
woman and the stern, hard heartelness of a
man.-New York Evening World.

WORKING IN THE MINES.

We worked in the mines again until dark
Supper consisted of cabbage or some other
kind of soup meat every two or three days,
potatoes or some other vegetables, which
were frequently rotten and black bread. In
the mines we worked in true miner fashion
with pick and shovel and lamp on hat. We
still wore our chains They never came off
The cOnvicts had to live in them and die in
them.
Such a life, of course sooner or later caused
the death OF many convicts The political
prisoners, many of whom were of high rank
and totally unusued to manual labor and to
such diet and manner of living, suffered the
most, and succumbed generally the fastest
The ordinary offenders, thieves, common
malefactors, etc, who came from the lower
classes, stood prison life much better, for it
more nearly resembled in its diet and daily
toll their former life. | have known ordinary
offenders, men from the lower classes, who
were stout and strong, who had lived and
worked in the mines for twenty years.
The women prisoners at the mines were en-
ployed in scrubbing, washing and clothes
making. The delicately nurtured ladies
among them who were political offenders did
not generally live long.
Some of the seventies practiced upon con-
victs in Siberia are justified, it must be said
Many of the convicts are the worst sort of
humanity, including murderers, thieves,
hiGhwaymen, and all kinds of offenders We
had one murderer i'll our community who
had killed twenty-seven men.
The politica! prisoners were forced to min
gle with this class of Qonvicts, some of them
the dregS Of humanity. In our company of
oGO which left Moscow there were fortv-eight
political prisoners four of whom were wo-
men. Sixteen Of us were the officers of the
ShleSeIburg regiment, who had been court
nartialeot for alleged completely with Polish
coNplrators Three of us officers stuck to-
gether and worked together, and finally es-
capped together. do not know whatever be-
