The Rage for tho New.

At all the state dinners and recep-
lions given at the executive mansion q
cage palm is displayed that once be-
longed to George Washington, and
decorated his entertainments at Mount
Vernon. But there the old interest OF
the White House stops. The visitor is
shown this room and that, and places
where some christening, marriage or
death gave interest to spots here and
there, and he is shown some Indifferent
portraits. But the house bears every
where the features of brand newness
and not Of famous oldness.
The reason for this is that the White
House is the victim Of vulgar desire
to have everything new. The same
vulgar ruthlessness pervades the Capt.
tol and every department building in
Washington. In place of committing
new president to an ancient house
filed with objects of historic interest, it
be been the custom to clear out every
tAing that belonged to the past, and as
far as possible to set up the new execu-
tive family as though they were going
to housekeeping for the first time

A Little Mixed.

AT a certain seminary for young Ia
dies in the east the students of German
are not allowed to speak in any other
language at the table, but one young
lady. more daring than the others,
broke the rule and announced in En-.
glish to her companions that she was
mashed" on certain young man.
'Mashed9" said the young fraulein
who presided over the students and
who is but imperfectly acquainted
with English; mash. what does that
meanf''
"Oh," spoke up one of the young
ladies, wishing to save her blushing
and confused companion, when a per-
son is very much in love with anybody
she says she Is mashed on him."
The girls thought that ended the
matter, but what was their surprise
when the next night in prayer meeting
the teacher rose with beaming face
and declared, II wish to testify, young
ladies, that am mashed ON the Lord. +"

The anecdotes told at the expense Of
amateur players are innumerable and
OF course Of varying degrees both Of
truthfulness and Of drollery. Not long
since another was added to the list by
some Harvard students, who ambi-
dously undertook to play Hamlet" for
the benefit of a charity.
The man who was to act the part of
Horatio was extremely timid, and when
the night of the performance came he
was SO overcome by stage fright that lie
could hardly remember the lines he had
90 carefully studied. In the first act he
ran upon a snag, which raised laugh,
and for the rest of the piece ne was ut
terly hopeless and had simply to be
pushed through the part.
It was in the scene where Horatio
and Marcellus tell Hamlet of the ap-
pearance OF the spirit OF his father, and
the prince asks, 'Staid it longr
''While one with moderate haste
might tell hundred" Horatio man
aged to stumble out but SO confusedly
that Marcellus forgot his cue, and in
stead of rejoining Longer. longer"
stood staring at Horatio.
The prompter, with a view to help
Ing out Marcellus, began to whisper
from the wings, Longer, longer" In
fortunately Ioratio, having lost all con-
troll of himself, was inspired with the
idea that the man playing Marcellus
was looking at him because he had
made an error, and that the words
from the wing were addressed to him.
With a great effort he Strengthened
himself up, cleared his burning throat
and said loudly, while one with mod

A Great Mexican Farm.

ION one farm in Mexico l saw
enough of the Injuries of life produced
to make any man happy" remarked
Mr. c. s. Wood. of Ell Paso, Tex
1.-THE farm was not as large as some
farms go in Mexico. but it was, to use
a slang phrase, sumner l don't
think the mind of man could imagine
a vegetable product that could not be
produced on that farm. AT any rate
l saw growing there coffee, sugar, rice,
potatoes, rye, wheat. oats, corn, Der
ries, cabbage, tomatoes, apples, banan-
as, cocoa, figs, cochineal and dozen
other products
ION the upper end of this farm you
could find gold, silver, sapphires, onyx
and other precious stones. Some OF
these articles were not produced in
quantities large enough to pay to mar
ket them, but they were all found
there and all at the service of the own
er of the land. Oh, suppose the farm
contained 10000 or 10000 acres OF
land, but it extended through all tenn
peratures and elevations. - Kansas

The Vermont senatorship.

A question that excites frequent dis
cussion in Vermont is that of the sue
censorship to Mr.. Edmunds in the
United States Senate, the prevailing
opinion and perhaps the dominant de-
sire being that the honor shall fall to
Sec. Proctor. To an outsider this is
incomprehensible. 1t is easy TO un-
derstand that Sec. Proctor himself
should prefer seat in the Senate,
with the chance of indefinite continua-
tion in it, to the more onerous place
of seat in the Cabinet for two or
three years at the longest but why
Vermont should be anxious to surren-
der the distinction of having one OF its
citizens in the circle of the Presidents
official family, which must carry with
it certain material benefits to the State
is altogether another matter. Sec.
Proctor is making most excellent
secretary of war, for the position is
one demanding business attainments,
and Mr.. Proctor is pre-eminently a
business man. So also he would
make creditable Senator, but he
probably could never gain anything
like the rank in that body which Mr..
Edmunds held for so many years. Nor
perhaps, is there any citizen of the
State who could. Yet the names of
more than one must occur readily to
anybody at all familiar with Vermont
affairs who by habits of thought and
by the requirements of their callings
would seemingly come nearer TO it
than Mr.. Proctor. One of these,
prominently mentioned for the APP
pointment is Hon. Henry Ballard of
Burlington. Mr.. Ballard is conceded
" one of the ablest lawyers in Ver-
mont. His mind is of the philosophic
order, and he has been all his life
student of questions Of statecraft and
governmental policies. He is force
full speaker and keen debater and if
sent to the Senate would unquestiona-
bly, be useful to the country and do
honor to his State. He is well known
in Northern New York for the posi-
tiveness and earnestness Of his Repub-
licanism, and is everywhere esteemed
as an honorable and engaging gentle-
man. 1t win be gratifying to his
many friends to learn that the opinion
prevails in well informed circles that
it See. Proctor does not receive the
honor, there are good grounds for be-
lieving that it may fall to Mr.. Ballard.
