Der of the Twenty fifth Congress, an
esteemed correspondent writes:
"Charles Gayerre, of New Orleans,
where he still resides. represented
Louisiana in the United States Senate
in 1886
This is not quite accurate. says the
New York Sun. Judge Gayerre was
elected in 1885 to the United States
Senate, but he never took his seat. Ill
ness banished him to Europe, where he
remained for seven or eight years, and
Robert Carter Nicholas was elected as
Senator in lis place. Judge Gayerre
therefore, did not represent Louisiana in
the Senate or serve with Judge Marvin
in the Twenty fifth Congress.
Is there any OF ersurviror than Judge
Marvin of tl.e distingui shed body that
included Cay, Calhoun. and Webster,
Tom Benton. James Buchanan. John
Critienden, Franklin Pierce, and Silas
Wright, and, in the House, john Quincy

In that remarkable Twenty fifth Con-

umvirate, there was not less than five
statesmen who either had been or after

Among the interesting peculiarities OF
Niagara Falls is continual changing of
outline and gradual backing upstream
that has been going on for some little
time. 1t seems that the American Fall
holds its ground more firmly than that
which is contiguous to the Canadian
shore. According to the report of
careful survey which State Engineer
Bogart submitted to the Commissioners
Of the State Reservation recently, IL ap.
pears that since 1912 the American Fail
has receded 80. 10 feet, or less than eight
inches year. while the Horseshoe Fall
has been working backward in an irreg-
ular fashion, the mean recession in these
48 years being over 104 feet, on more
than two feet a year At one point it's

eing killed Speaking of the un peak
ably bad judicial system of the country,
lie said it was fact, almost incredible,
that a man condemned to death could
hire a substitute for that interesting
ceremony. The substitute had all the
opium he wanted until the execution
and what more could man ask?
The speaker explained, what had al
ways been mystery to him until he
went to China, just why the country
was 5000 years behind the times. il
was all due TO the system of education.
All education, so called. in that country
is based upon the one great pervadng
idea that all that is great in any sort of
learning is that which has gone before.
The examination of eligibles for ali
scholastic and political positions is based
ON the nine books of sacred writ, re-
edited by Confucius A man is called
a scholar if he knows these and not
any thing else Everything is judged
by these sacred books The one good
aud democratic thing about it is that
any man is eligible 10 any position
under that Of emperor.

Chinaman how many children he has
he will only count his boys. The lot of
Chinese woman is a wretched one.
Here are a few facts gathered from
the address. Drunkenness is almost un-
known in China. There are few chari-
ties There is the most intense ignorance
as to current events; there were no
newspapers, no telegraph lines Polite
ness is part Of the Chinese religion, but
the average Chinaman is an unmitigated
liar. Filial obedience is a Chinese vir-
tue. The Celestials are great believers
in "signs, thousands in number. They
have no straight streets or walls, be-
cause they believe the devil travels in n
straight line. They want no for igners.
@The Chinese, said Mr.. Angel, "are
docile, they are not warlike race, and
yet once aroused, with their unnunbered
millions. they would make tremendous
amount of trouble to any nation on the
face of the earth. The country is grad
