WoIcott Attacks the President,

The session of the senate Vas given up entirely to considering the sherman act. That question came up in three separate forms. The first was sort of personal eN plantation by Mir. Harris in reply to resolu- tions adopted at n joint meeting of the Memphis Cotton and Merchants Exchange condemning the course of the Tennessee senators on the silver question.
 Mir. Harris declared his disregard of d threat contained in the resolutions. and he said that the maintenance of his self re- SpeCt was of vastly more importance tohim than any office within the gift of any people
 After that came up the resolution offered by Mir. WolCott last Saturday. inStructing the finance committee tO put into legisla- tive form the bimetallic declaration of pol icy contained in the NCorhtcs substitute Some of the most impassioned speeches made since the opening of the debate took place on this resolution.
 Mir Wolcott criticised the president for his letter to Governor NortLeu of Georgia, characterizing it as intrusive, offensive and unttting the relations which should exist between the legislative and executive departments of the government.
 Mir. Voorhees, made the resolution the groundwork of a speech defending the re peal bill and asserting that the statement that il demouttiZed silver. even ii repeated d hundred thousand times, was not true.
 He declared that he was ready. when the sherman law no longer diSGraccd the stat ute books. to act promptly in carrying out the pledge which the bill contained.
 The Wolcott resolution was finally sent to the calendar and the repeal bill proper taken up. Upon it Nr. Cockrell occupied the floor for :S', hours and had not con Cluded his remarks when the senate ad iourned

While it would be pleasant to have our
schools cultivate the literary element in
English composition, this is not the first
end to be sought. All educated men
cannot hope to be poets or essayists, but
no one has o right to consider himself
educated till he is able to say in writing
what he would say to his correspondent
aloud If they were standing face to face.
Slovenliness of expression not only is
usually traceable to slovenliness Of
thought as a cause, but the habitual neg
lect of expression has also tendency to
increase by reflex action the habit Of
loose or muddy thinking. A person who
lacks the power of clear thought and ex-
preston is not q person to whose keeping
it is safe to confide public interests, and
in our country, where every citizen is
liable to be called upon to bear some Of
the burdens of state, it is especially neces-
sary that the study of written as well as
spoken English be given the place to
which its Importance plainly entities it
in every American school course.-Good
Government.

They Drank to Lord How.

At one time the officers under Lord
Howe refused to drink his health at
their mess. for, though a splendid admi-
raj, he was not popular in the navy on
account of certain shyness and want
of tact with those about him. The
chaplain, who was protege of his lord
ship, was mortified at this and deter
mined that they should drink to Lord
Howe. When called upon for toast
one day he said, "Well, gentlemen, l
can think Of nothing better at this mo-
ment than to ask you to drink the first
two words Of the third psalm, for a
scriptural toast for once may be taken
from one of my CLOTH" The toast was
accordingly drunk.
On referring to the Bible it was found
that the first two words Of the third
psalm were Lord How" After the
glorious 1st of June the above was the
favorite toast throughout the navy, and
the chaplain triumphed more widely
than he anticipated. Tit-Bits.

Too Horrible.

There was to be grand display of rich
toilets at the forthcoming ball in a pro-
vincial town. The wife of a wealthy
banker wanted to outshine all the other
ladies who had invitations. She accord
ingly ordered dress from Paris that
should exceed by its splendor the widest
expectations. Exulting in the proud con-
viction of her surprising magnifcence
she entered the ballroom. Here her ex-
perienced eye took stock of the ladies
present-as scream Of horror-and she lay
fainting in her husbands arms, to the
no small CONSERVATION of the company,
which, however, is increased twofold
when another lady in the room is discov-
cred to be fainting Our fair readers
will agree that both sufferers deserve
our deepest sympathy, for their dresses
paris make both were precisely similar
in style and material. .-Fliegende Blatter.

ANCIENT EGYPTIAN ASTRONOMY.
without instruments Ancient Astrono-

without Instruments Ancient Astrono-
mers Kept Track of the Heavens.
We find in the table at the Ramesseum
distinct references to the bull, the lion
and the scorpion, and it is also clearly
indicated that at that time the Sirius rose
heliacally at the beginning of the rise of
the Nile.
This word heliacally requires little
explanation. The ancients, who had no
telescopes and had to use their horizon
as the only scientific instrument which
they possessed, were very careful in de-
termining the various conditions in
which a star could rise. For instance, if
n star were rising at the same time that
the sun WAS rising, it was said to rise
cosmically, but unless certain very obvi-
GUS precautions were taken the rising
star would not be seen in consequence of
the presence of daylight.
1t is quite clear that if we observe a
star rising in the dawn it will get more
and more difficult to observe the nearer
the time of sunrise is approached. There
fore what the ancients did was to deter
mine time before sunrise in the early
dawn at which the star could be very
obviously and clearly seen to rise. The
term "heliacally rising" was coined to
represent star rising visibly in the
dawn-therefore before the sun. Gener-
ally throughout Egypt the sun was sup
posed to be something like 10 degs. be-
low the horizon when star was stated
to rise heliacally.
We find then that more than 5000
years ago the Egyptians were perfectly
familiar with these facts, and the differ
ence between a cosmical and heliacal
rising was perfectly clear to them. But
the table at Thebes tells us. moreover,
that the suns journey in relation to some
of the zodiacal consultations was per-
fectly familiar 5000 years ago.
These then are some of the more
general statements which may be made
with regard to the most important points
SO far discussed by those who have dealt
with Egyptian astronomy, and it may
be added that all this information has
come to us in mythologic guise.
The various apparent movements Of
the heavenly bodies which are produced
by the rotation and revolution Of the
earth and the effects of procession were
familiar to the Egyptians, however ig-
norant they may have been of the causes.
They carefully studied what they saw
and attempted to put their knowledge
together in the most convenient fashion,
associating it with their strange i'm
aginings and with their system Of wor-
ship.-Nineteenth Century.

An Era of Unmarried Women.

Susan B. Anthony is of the opinion
that we are on the verge of an era Of un-
married women. Our civilization, she
says, is changing. Daughters cannot be
supported at home, and there is nothing
there to busy them. The women used to
spin and weave, make carpets and soap,
but now all that is done for them in the
factories. Young men do not make
enough money to support their wives,
and there is such craze for dissipation
among them that the women would
rather go into store for almost nothing
than to marry.-New York Sun.
