The House of Percy.

The house of Percy, though it has kept
the Norman name, should twice, with
all intents, have changed it. The males
of the old Norman line had died out in
1853, when the daughter of the last of
them married Josceline de Louvain,
brother of Adeliza, the queen of Henry
l, and son of the Count of Brabant
Though the bridegroom came Of the
blood of Charlemange," the bride COM
PEELED him to choose between taking her
name or her arms. He preferred the
former alternative, declining to part with
the azure lion of Hainrult, which has
since, with their crescent, been the crest
of the Percys, and was one of the most
familiar features of central London be-
fore the melancholy demolition of North
CUMBERLAND house. Itwould be tedious
story to tell how the Northumbrian es-
tates came in 1744 to vest in the wife Of
Sir Hugh Smithson, of Stanwick, the
head of "a respectable Yorkshire family,
who received his dukedom twenty years
afterward. Now, we believe, the North
umbrian rent roll is nearly $1,000 or
at least it was so before the agricultural
depression. But when the division was
made in 1744 Northumberland was very
much wild pasturage or uncultivated
waste, and the more valuable half of the
Percy estates passed to the Wyndhans

Sound at Long Distance.


The distance at which the ear can dis
tinguish sound depends both upon the
intensity of the sound, the medium
through which it is transmitted and
other causes, including the state of the
atmosphere. In the Polar regions Sir
John Franklin said he conversed with
ease at a distance of more than mile.
Sound has greater force in water. Col
ladon, by experiments made in the Lake
of Geneva, estimated that bell sub
merged in the sea might be heard at a
distance of more than 60 miles. Frank
lin asserts that he heard the striking
together of two stones in the water half
mile away. The report of cannon
travels very far, because it communi
Gates vibration to the soil. The can
nonade Of Florence was heard beyond
Leghorn, about SO miles off, and that
of Genoa, 100 miles off. In 1862 the
cannon of Mayence was heard at Tin
beck, a village 148 miles off. When the
English landed in Egypt on one of their
expeditions the firing was distinctly
heard 100 miles off. In 1909 the boom
ing of the cannon in Heligoland reached
Hanover, distance of 157 miles. But
the greatest distance at which artificial
ly prodsced sounds are known to have
been heard was on Dec. 4, 1882, when
the cannon at Antwerp were heard in
the Erzgebrge mountains, $40 miles
distant The noise produced by an in
tense eruption of Mount Cotopaxi, in
South America, in 1744, was heard at
distance Of 600 miles.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Divine Mozart.

Who, like Mozart, has traversed the
immense scale of human passions? Who
has touched their far distant limits with
such answering accuracy, equally proof
against the ineptitudes of false grace
and the brutalities of lying violence!
Who else could thrill with anguish and
horror the purest and most eternal
forms? Oh, divine Mozart,
didst thou lie indeed on the bosom of in
finite beauty, even as once the beloved
disciple lay on the Saviour's breast, and
didst thou draw up thence the incom-
parable grace which denotes the trud
elect? Bounteous nature had given thee
every gift-grace and strength, fullness
and sobriety, bright spontaneity and
burning tenderness, all in that perfect
balance which makes up the irresistible
powers of thy charm, and which makes
of thee the musician of musicians, greater
than the greatest, the only one of all

The Postbox4sn-tfre East.

There he stands. the guide, or postboy,
the youth upon whom depends the trav.
eler's comfort for the next stage. The
hard working, sober, good natured
charpa boy is the guide, philosopher and
friend of the traveller who rides post in the
east. He is ready to amuse his temporary
master, to tell him the local gossip, to
quote poetry to him, and do his duty to
the traveller and to the horses under his
charge to the best of his ability. Nat
urally enough the Persian postboy pre-
fers the society of the native servant to
that of the foreigner, his master. The
traveller who is not in a hurry is his de-
light, but if the man who posts is really
anxious to travel quickly, the postboy
rises to the occasion and honestly does
his best. He doesn't look much like the
Courier of Lyons, the gentleman in the
jack boots, the beribboned hat, the red
waistcoat and the laced jacket. To tell
the truth our postboy is not ornamental.
He is shod with great brown leather
slippers, and his legs are swathed in
coarse wooden bandages bound with
goats hair strings; in lieu of the tradi-
tional buckskins he wears loose pair OF
blue cotton peijamas; jerkin Of gayly
colored but time worn and dirty chintz,
a sleeveless sheepskin jacket, hair side
inward, and hemispherical felt skull
cap complete his costume His waist is
girded by bit of cotton cloth which
forms his girdle, and contains his frugal
meal, a flap jack" or loaf of unleavened
bread, and perhaps couple of onions.
The postboy always takes his food with
him, for as often as not at the next
stage nothing is to be got but water, at
times even not that.-Good Words.

Pauperism I'm Russia.

Beggars win always abound in rude
communities where to refuse aims is
made such grave social reproach that
to beg comes to be fully as comfortable
as to work, and nearly as respectable.
When Russian peasant falls into tenn
porary difficulties he puts wallet over
his shoulder, goes out among the neigh
boring villages and gets it speedily filled
with what is known as "morsels." He
enters every house, but makes no formal
request; only the mistress Of the house
feels the meaning of the wallet and
drops morsel into it silently behind his
back; and she will do 50 though the
morsel be her last and her own husband
be obliged to assume the beggar's wallet
himself on the morrow.
This touching and respectful tender
ness OF the poor for the poor is natural
encouragement to the professional beg
gar, and there are whole villages In Rus
STA where the people, every man of them,
in addition to their occupation as own.
ers and cultivators of land, have for
generations practiced beggary as their
regular auxiliary trade.
On single estate in Moscow province
there are fifty-two of these beggar vii
lagos. containing among them as many
as 4,349 able bodied men, possessing their
