Uoldsnaith's Grave.

We have among us, in the heart OF
this rich city. in Goldsmith's buildings.
hard by the Temple church, the grave OF
another man of genius-the grave OF
Oliver Goldsmith. The insignificant
monument that covers his remains, ana
the tenth rate statue. if such it can he
called, that adioins it, are in state 81
decay that does the greatest discredit 70
Goldsinitia's fellow countrymen. On the
one side of the stone is the inscription:
ssHere lies Oliver Goldsmith, and on the
other. Born 10 Nov, 1928. Died 4th
April, I774.r Many of the letters and
figures on the stone are well nigh obiit-
Grated, while the inscription underneath
the statue 1t is absolutely impossible to
,decipher. This is no new tale.
some OF our contemporaries have very
properly again and again called the
attention Of the public to these facts,
but still nothing il done. Surely the
few pounds necessary TO keep his grave
in proper state of repair might well be
subscribed. II Is now entirely neglected
and deserted, save by few kindly folk
who sometimes deck it with flowers. A
movement having the object we have
indicated and headed, say, by the two
great English actors who have given US
such delightful renderings Of what was
perhaps Goldsnith's greatest creation

the hearty cooperation of all those who
have derived pleasure and amusement
and instruction from that master OF fic-
tion, who was not only one Of the great
est uovelists OF his time, but the purest
hearted ard most good natured of men.

A very favorable account is given in
the French papers of the new system of
building houses of iron and steel plates,
introduced into France by NJ. Danly,
manager of the Societe des FORCES de
Chateleneau, who has set forth its vari-
GUS advantages with much practical de-
tail, attracting considerable attention to
the method. 1t has been satisfactorily
ascertained, it seems, that corrugated
sheets of such metal, of more than a
millimeter in thickness, are sufficiently
strong for building houses several stories
high, and the material, of course, allows
of considerable variety of architectural
ornamentation.
The plates thus employed are of the
finest quality, and as they are galvanized
after having been cut to the sizes and
shapes required no portion isleft exposed
to the atmosphere. In addition to this
it is asserted that houses constructed in
such manner are very sanitary, and that
all ventilation and heating arrangements
can readily be carried out. In England
this system of building has found much
favor, the superiority of the new over
the old system consisting in the method
of corrugating and galvanizing the metal.

One day last week a certain young
physician here in town ran across his
bosom friend, and the two started out
to have a good time together. They
did so until they ran out of funds.
This was about 3 p. m, and altogether
too early in the day to go home or to
quit. All the other places were still
open. The young physicians friend
thought of a bright scheme. Doc"
he said, II have friend over here at

The young physician was afraid of
being just then i'll lovely condition
to do so, and he kept repeating it t,
himself all the way up stairs. The
perfumery man was found, and the
young physicians friend said. 'sMr.

The question of the improvement of
cookery among the poor classes is at
tracing great attention in Europe, where
Its immense hygienic Importance is rec
ognized. The subject is one in which
medical men in this country also, skilled
as they are in the physiology of food and
accustomed to deal with the poor, both
IN family life and in public institutions,
might give great aid. This. which the
working classes greatly need is instruc-
ton in the art of braising, or slowly
stewing at low heat, combinations OF
meat scraps and of vegetables.

West Pointer. Never smlls.

Now, strange as it may seem, smiling
Is something totally against the rules.
No man ever dreams of smiling at any
thing, no matter how ludicrous, when he
has been in the West Point academy a
few weeks. The face is required to have
stony, expressionless stare, the eyes
fixed as If in a trance, gazing ON futurity.
The head is thrown back, the arms held
rigidly, the body straight, aud this is the
attitude Of attention" which is ex-
pected to be the normal condition of a
cadet, except when speaking with his
own or with lower classmen. Cor. Phila-

Ka,akua,. People In Revolt.

SEATTLE, VASE, Aug. 25.-Admiral
Brown of the flagship Charleston, which
has arrived here from Honolulu, ex-
pressed the belief in an interview that
the next steamer from the Hawaiian
Islands will bring news Of revolution
and probably Of the declaration Of q new
republic. He said:
Hitherto the Hawaiian government
has been managed largely by Europeans
and Americans, but educated natives are
beginning to feel that they are competent
to conduct the Hawaiian governm ant and
that the part played by foreigners In the
control OF affairs was an uDwarrAntAble
interferenos with their sacred rights.
Accordingly the sohooled natives have
gathered around them band OF followers
daily increasing In strength, who have
raised the cry, Hawaii for HswaiiRns.'
The revolutionists want the offices at
the disposal of the government. The
maloontents have, in mseting with the
mechanics, passed resolutions asking that
this patronage be given to natives and
members OF their own party. This re-
quest has been ignored by the
government. The United States know
ing the unsolid condition of at
airs, sent the Charleston out there
about three months ago to protect our
citizens aud our interests. Accordingly
great deal of American property has
accumulated in the islands, which / vas

LONDON, Aug. 20.-Doubt has arisen
about the alleged case of cholera in Lon
don. The sailors name is Robert Leigh,
an Irishman. An official report of rs-
assuring nature Was issued to night by
the representative Of the medical depart
ment OF the local government board,
who has been making inquiries into the
case.
The patient ia describes as suffering
from symptoms which, although not to
be distinguished clinically from Asiatic
cholera, are occasionally observed in
oases OF cholera morbus, such as ooour at
this season. Il goes on to state that the
steamship Duke OF Argyle touched at no
other port after leaving Port Said on July
30th, and that throughout the entire
voyage no case of illness in the slightest
degree resembling cholera occurred on
board and that the patient was not at
tackled till more than "a hours had
elapsed sitter he had left the ship In the
Thames. Inquiries At the hospital re-
veal the fact that Leigh improved during
the day aud is very much better.

hAS"htS Co.,
RookY MOUNT, Va, Aug. 22.-George
Early and Bud Woods, the negroes who
were convicted Of setting fro to several
honses here during General Mahone's
campaign last year, were hanged to-day
in the jail here. Tue town WAS crowded
with country people anxious to witness
the execution, but only a few citizens,
phyaicians, ministers aud relatives OF the
men were permitted to DO present.
Both men had all day exhibited re-
markable nerve, and had been eating,
smoking and chatting with their friends
and relatives up to yesterday as II they
were about to enter upon o pleasant
journey rather than to drop into eternity.
The last few days were spent in singing
and praying, both having professed oon-
version and been baptized.
Promptly at ~ o'clock tho sheriff and
his deputies walked into the cell Of the
condemned men, who were EXPECTING
him, having been previously notified that
they would be led TO tue soafold at that
hour and that an hour later they would
be executed. They placed their hands
behind them to DO bound, and chatted
pleasantly or greeted reporters and others
as they came In. They followed the
sheriff to the scaffold in the basement of
the Jail with firm tread and quietly
seated themselves in chairs, George EARLY
with his legs crossed, looking cool and
collected, and Bud Woods equally as
cool, but in rather more humble atti-
tude.
The Rev. r. q. Clark of the Presby-
tsrian church, read the first PISA M and
afterwards offered up feeling prayer.
The sheriff then informed them that they
could say what thew had to soy.
BUD Woods led off in somewhat ramb-
ling but remarkably sensible speech for a
negro, protesting his innocence of the
crime in the most solemn manner. Early
followed in much the same strain, pro-
testing his innocence of the crime, and
saying that In his confession he had lied
on himself and the others, hoping to gain
his liberty thereby, and that hs was
mainly instrumental in bringing himself
and the others to the j al and the scsff / 1.
They then st iod upon the scatfol AID
Sheriff Price bound taeie lsps together
and in moment more he sprung the trap
and the souls Of the two men we're hurled
into eternity. Tho meu had fall of
eight feet and the necks Of both " 70
broken. They hung just IL minutes and
46 seconds whsn the physicians pro
nounced life extinct. They ware cut
down and piacsd in neat oof1Is add their
bodies turned over to ihelr friends.
