Even with tho Duchess.

An old duchess on one occasion requested
Dr. Abernethy TO paya professional visit at
her house. The doctor went as requested,
and was introduced into the drawing room,
where the duchess, with tears in her eyes,
showed him an ugly little monkey, apparently
in great agony, lying on elegant cushions and
almost buried in lovely laces The doctor
felt thoroughly disguised at being called
upon to act as a monkeys doctor. He felt
the monkeys pulse in silence, examined it
with attention, and soon recognized the ma
ture of its illness; then, perceiving the lady's
grandson in the corner of the drawing room,
rolling about on the carpet, he advanced to-
ward the child, examined him also, felt his
pulse, and returning to the duchess, said To
her in n grave manner: Madam, your two
sons are suffering from indigestion. By
drinking tea and living on plain diet they
will son recover" And, bowling profoundly
to the duchess, the doctor retired. avenged

As to Whewell's attribute of omniscience
there can be no doubt that his gigantic in
tellect left but few subjects untouched, and
connected with this there is story which
must not be omitted. A rival conversationalist
weary of continually playing second fiddle to
him, resolved that, happen what might, he
would for once have the better of him. and
50 before they met again he got up the sub
ject of Chinese metaphysics: if he did not
win he thought that at all events the master
would not monopolize the talk on this sub
ject Accordingly he lost no time in dex-
terously leading the conversation toward the
topic and at once Huently and confidently
expressed his opinions, when to his aston
ishment Whewell rushed into the subject
quite at home and in direct contradiction to
his views "Sir," said the master. Twill you
have the goodness to give me the authority
upon which the opinions you have expressed
are basedf" Certainly" said his opponent;

"Ohl' said Whewell, II wrote the article
myself ten years ago, and have since seen
good reason to change my viewsr'-Temple

to chapters Ii and 81 of the Revised Statutes

relating to tile sale of intoxicating liquors.
i Mr.. Chadbourne moved to strike out Sec
tion Of this bill. He spoke of the injustice
done to railroad companies by this section
and showed that it is impossible in many
cases to determine whether or not liquor is
being transported. Railroad corporations
should not be thus liable.
Mr.. Curtis of Paris defended the measure.
He said that the Committee on Temperance
had not intended and did not wish to do in
justice to any railroad corporation. They
designed that the railroad companies should
instruct their employees that the prohibitory
Law must be observed. There could be
nothing bad about such Law a. that.
Mr.. Chadbourne spoke in reply and Mr..

The Race Question.

A great many of our southern
papers are inclined to take the view
that the, recent race troubles in
Mississippi were caused and par.
ticipated in by only a certain class
OF negroes, and intimate that this
class is mainly composed OF only
the more ignorant seat. This sup
position Is wrong. The educated
negroes are the ring-leaders in
these troubles in almost every in
stance. We can see but one way
TO settle this race question-and it
is an important question, notwitl :
standing what many of the papers
say--and that way is by the Use OF
violence. Lawrenceville, Ill.,, was
the scene of another of these troub.
les last Saturday in which half q
dozen white men were aeriously
hurt. Clubs, knives and pistols
were used and two negroes were
killed and eight or ten more wound.
