SHORT CROP OF OFLAwYERs.

For the first time in its history
there were no applicants for admis-
sion to the bar before the supreme
court at Utica, N. Y, Inquiry de-
veloped that the law requiring every
candidate to pass an examination in
seven branches before beginning his
career as n student of law has direct
ed many ambitious youths toward
some other lines. AS our lawyers

INTOLERANCE,

Ignorance and brutality are over
intolerant. One Nigh hope that in
this age, after 80 many examples Of
the evils Of persecution, and In this
nation born Of revolt against the es-
tablished order of things, and re-
baptised by bloody war to over
throw tyranny over the humblest
of the human race, we could allow
10 Others freedom Of opinion. But
at a South Carolina college two
professors were mobbed by the
students for voting republican, and
at Bowdoin, Maine, President Hyde
was also mobbed by the students
and citizens for announcing that he
was in favor Of free trade, while for
the same reason Professor Garfield
of the Kansas State University has
been denounced at Indignation
meetings, his expulsion from the
college demanded, and a resolution
introduced in the legislature brand
ing him a traitor. These are fine
signs. Happy, proud America!

GOING BACK to old ENGLAND.

The handsome, staunch iron steamship Pc
ruvian of the Allan line is lying at the Grand
Trunk wharf now taking in a cargo. She
will be ready to sail for England in a few
days and will take with her number of
passengers. Two of the passengers will pay
no fare. They have become great favorites
with the officers and crew who are very care
full not to disturb or in any way inconve-
nience them. The moment the big steamer
arrived Mr.. and Mrs. Sparrow were seen
lowering about her, and appeared very much
delighted with the boat, or perhaps pleased
at the prospect of returning on her to the
dear old country, for they are English spar
rows. Immediately they began to move on
board, taking with them all their worldly
goods. Ever since they have been very busy,
After looking about for some time they
found nice little place under the bowsprit
and began at once to build coy, warm
nest, which after hours of hard labor they
have about completed The steamer has
been moved from one wharf to another, but
the sparrows have followed her. Evidently
they have firmly decided to 60 back to old
England from whence they came.

Prang,s Easter Cards.

L. Prang & Co.'s efforts to bring out more
artistic designs and more elaborate and tasty
novelties has not been in vain this season
as the large line Of elegant Easter goods fully
attests. Flowers, landscapes and lovely
children are the principal motifs for the de-
signs, and lofty and appropriate sentiments
accompany them.
Among the novelties are art tiles of rare
patterns, imitation of plastic tiles. hand
modelled, made of durable material. and
ivory mounts, also hand-modelled in exact
imitation of old carved ivory. Both imita-
lions are excellent. and the designs high ly
artistic. Hand painted mounts are largely
represented in the line.
The satin art prints are daintier and more
delicate than ever before, and good taste is
displayed in the various forms in which they
are issued, such as book marks, sachets.
bags, portfolios, mouchoir cases, cushions,
banners, as well as on handsome hand dec
GRATED mounts and imitation ivory mounts.
One set of designs has been printed on rich,
soft faille silk, instead of satin, with hap
Ply result. A large line of Easter booklets
most Of them in hand decorated covers, are
bought out under appropriate titles and
filled with the best Easter poetry.
