guropean States in which 1t Has Been
AboIfshed Recently

The new Italian criminal code just
voted the Legislature, among other i'm
portant reforms, abolishes capital pun
ishment. That part of the report OF
Signor Zauardelli, the Minister OF JUS
tice, which deals with this subject, con-
tains some interesting statistics as to
the enforcement of the death penalty
in the various States OF Europe. Capt.
tai punishment was abolished in Tus-
cany in 1859, in Rumania in 1864, in
Portugal in 1867, (there had been no
execution since 1843), in Holland in
1870 (the last execution was in 1860;
and it has been abolished in seventeen
out of the twenty-one cantons OF Swift
zerland, though in one of the seventeen
it has been re-established. In Italy
there has been no execution since 1877.
With regard to these countries which
still retain the death penalty upon
their statute books, in Belgium there
has been no execution since 1868, in
Prussia, out of 558 death-sentences pro-
nounced between the years 1870 and
1880, only in one case-that OF Hodel
was the sentence carried out; in Baden
Of % and in Wurtemburg OF 30 such
sentences only one in each case was
carried out; in Bavaria out of 1874 pris-
oners condemned seven only were exc
cuted, and in Saxony in the same pc
riod of eleven years there was no eXecu-
ton. In Sweden only four death-sen-
fences out of q were carried out. In
France between the years 1880 and 1880
the dc ath sentences executed fell from
IS to &c per cent, and from 1880 to
1884 to 10 per cent. In Austria the per-
;entage fell from 16 in 1869 to 3 in
1884. In England only have death SEN
fences been carried into effect in
any degree approaching to certainty.

What All Mexican Drinks.

The region we passed through is the
center of the pulque region of Mexico.
This road runs q train called the
''pulque train into the City of Mexico
every day loaded with barrels aud bot
ties of pulque. These bottles remind
one of the bottles known in-Scripture
time. They are made OF hogskins. The
skin is stripped from the hog almost
intact, turned inside out. and then with
the legs, tail and throat tied up it is
filled with pulque. The baggage ear
OF our train is nearly filled with these
uncouth objects, and until we knew
what they were we supposed it was a
load of hogs. As the train stops at
the small stations on the way to Vera
Cruz boys and men rush up to the bag
gage-car with bottles, pals and demi-
johns, which are filled from these hog
skins. In the cities the pulque shops
are frequent, and you can always see u
crowd of Mexicans- standing before the
bar absorbing the pulque. They drink
1t from large glasses which hold about
quart. L am told that when it is fresh
pulque Is as sweet as honey, but it fers
ments rapidly and is sour in day On

A POINT BROKEN.

How q Wittlcism COMPOUNDED Lawyers
Clever Argument.
A witticism based on truth and
''truth, when witty, is the wittiest of
all things"-confound an argument or
breaks the force of a cross-eXamina-
ton.
Robert Morris, the colored lawyer OF
the Boston bar, while defending col
ored dressmaker charged with stealing
silk from her customers, and substi-
tuting for it a poorer material, cross
examined the principal witness, lady
who declared emphatically that she
could tell the value of silk within
twenty-five cents yard.
Knowing that it is difficult for white
people to distinguish one colored per-
son from another, Mr.. Morris asked
the lady if she could recognize the
colored man Who had brought bundle
to fer.
No" she answered. II think that
all colored persons look alike to me"
"Oh, they do, do theyP" rejoined
Morris. We'll see, !" and he asked
several colored men to rise. "Now
madam" he continued, 'look at me
and then at these gentlemen, and tel
the court whether you can tell u:
apart"
II don't see much difference" re-
piled the lady. Perhaps by studying
you all might; but your heads are al
shaped alike, and except that some are
darker than others, find it hard tt
distinguish one from another"
"Now, madam" said Morris with {
triumphant air, "do you mean tt
swear, after telling the jury that you
can Judge of the value of silk within
twenty-five cents yard, that you CAM
tell the difference between Mr.. John
son here and me?"
"She regards herself as a judge o.
silk; not a judge CT WOOL" interrupted
| the prosecuting attorney.
The court laughed, as did the spec
tators. Morris smiled, for he saw thai
the witticism had broken off the point
of his question. Youths ConlpGnteI

CHEERFUL OLD AGE.
Why the Closing Years of Life Should
Devoid of Gloom or Fear.

Why the Closing Years of Life Should DO
Devoid of Gloom or Fear.
81 look upon death to be as necessary
to our constitution as Sleep" says DR..
Franklin, in one of his letters; 1--WE
shall rise refreshed in the morning"
In this cheerful vein wrote the phi
osopher and statesman at the age Of
eighty-two. His vision was at that time
much impaired, and he suffered severe
y from govt; but these Affections, he
tells us, did not prevent his enjoying
the pleasures of society, and being
cheerful in conversation.
There is something inexpressibly
beautiful in old age, when thus exhibit
ted devoid of querulousness, discomfort
or gloom, and free also, from unbecom-
ing levity.
We know of no good reason why the
closing years of life should be sorrow
full simply because they are the last.
As the pilgrims failing feet bear him
lettering through the final scenes of
this strange, eventful history" the
peace and happiness of the world be-
yond must seem to him, one would
think more desirable at every step.
Even if the backward prospect be dark
with errors, there is light before
light attainable; and the great truth
that it may be reached should be a
mighty consolation.
The traveller knows that however he
may have swerved from the direct path
that leads to his wished-for haven Of
peace, it is still open to him, and that
it rests with himself to strike into it,
even close to the terminus, and attain
the rest to which it tends.-N. Y.

Iron, when heated, bends very
readily under weight so that it can
not be considered the best VI material
for freproof buildings. Stone, and
especially granite. is very little better
than iron to withstand the ravages OF
fire. There is no material, according
TO the best fire insurance authorities,
that can be used for construction equal
to brick. 1t is the opinion Of both in
surance men and heads of fire depart
ments that brick has stood the test bet
ter than any other material.
