The Ancients and Tobacco,

Bacchus as a votive oifeTing, and as the
lative case of Bacchus in Greek is ITO
Baccho," the narcotic gradually cot that
name. OF course any scholar Will at once
zee that DR.. Hitchcock was too good a
irecian TO have fathered such an absurd
-tymology.
As matter Of fact, the late President
Hitchcock. of Amherst, made the sugges-
ton in question as a bit Of pleasantly in a
humorous book which he once published.
The ancients didn't have the geod for-we

in the vice OF using tobacco, though they
probably would II they had known about

Recently Bayarian paper gave an Inn
pressive account of the experience Of an
English family at Oberammergau. The
worthy paterfamilias appears to have tele-
graphed from Paris for lodgings and tick
cts for the play. He received in reply a
promise of both. He came and stopped
for two days, and was then presented with
q bill amounting to 49, marks, or nearly
a22, and made up OF items like these: Sit
ting room, three days, 90 marks; two bed
rooms with six beds, $50 marks; bed for
courier. Is marks; bed for maid, q marks;
board fpr six persons, two days, - marks;
twelve dinners, at 4 marks, 4S marks; fire
and lights, 70 marks; board for courier and
maid. is marks, and so on
On the top of this the maid fell Ill
through sleeping in a damp bed, and her
complaint was pronounced to be typhus,
and this resulted in another claim for 500
marks presume IS compensation for the
infection Finally, having thus paid nearly
1000 marks for their two days fun, the
family never got any tickets and left with
out seeing the play.

A SUMNER PICTURE.


The farmer sat in his easy chair,
Smoking his pipe OF clay.
While his hale old wife with busy care
Was clearing the dinner away:
A sweet little girl with fine blue eyes
o. her grandfather's knee was catching
flies.
The old man laid his hand on her head,
With tear on his wrinkled face;
BE thought how often her mother, dead,
Had sat in the self same place.
As the tears stole down from his half shut
eye
Don't smoke" said the child how IT
makes you cry = --.is r-l.. -i
The house dogfay stretched otit on ne floor,
Where the shade after noon used 70 steal;
The busy old wife by the open door
Was turning the spinning wheel;
And the Old brass clock on the manteltree
Had plodded along 10 almost three.
Still the farmer sat IN his easy chair.
White close 10 his heaying breast
The moiSJenCd brow and the cheek so fair
OF his sweet grandcAild were press'd;
His head bent down on her soft hair lay;
Fast asleep were they both that summers

THE BALL SUIT,
Today In the Libel Suit Affect
ing Mr.. CleveIand's Reputation.

BUFFALO, Feb. Judge Daniels charged
the jury this morning in the suit of Rev. Dr.
Ball against the New York Erening Post The
judge read the articles upon which actions were
based, going over them sentence by sentence
and dwelling upon their import, whether i'm
piled or understood
DIR. Ball, he said, had the right to investigate
the character of Mr.. Cleveland if he saw fit to
do 80. and it was for the jury to determine
Whatever such an investigation, visiting
negress, &c, warranted the Post In
saying or insinuating that he was gutter
snipe. If MIR. Ball had libelled Mr.. Cleve-
land that was no Justification for the Post to
libel plaintiff, supposing it had done SO. MIR.
Godkln, the jury were requested to remem.
Der, had certain letters before him as well
as an article published in the Courier signed by
sixteen citizens and it was to be considered
whether he had had sufficient to warrant him
in making assertions in the Post which he did.
Further, whether articles we're actuated by
malice and whether they were intended to in
be justified in finding verdict for
the plaintiff and on that would be
punishment and an example. Atten-
ton was also called to the fact that when
man comes out with public charges he becomes
to a certain extent public character and open
to criticism. II liberties accorded
the press had been transcribed the
plaintiff was entitled to damages.
The editorial relating to the Abbott letter
most serious charge in it was acknowledged to
be untrue.
THE VERDICT.
The Jury in the Ball-POst case at 3 o'clock
rendered a verdict of no cause of action.
