STAMP COLLECTING MANIA.
Men of Rank Who Are Collectors and Some
Valuable Stocks In England.

Some remarkable particulars respect
ing this peculiar form of the madness of
crowds is given in The British Fort
nightly by Mr. w. Roberts. In England
the craze has some very disting .lished
patrons The president and vice presi-
dent of the Philatelc society respectively
are the Duke Of Saxe-Coblrg- -Gotha and
the Duke of York. while its ordinary list
of members includes one prince and two
earls. In London last season no less
than from el5,G00 to 100000 worth of
stamps We're sold by three or four auc-
tioneers. One hundred and nine mem
bers of the society have in their posses
sion no fewer than S25 600 stamps.
The value of one collection was placed
at 100000. Il second al cG.0O0, two at
$4,000. two at $4,000, eight AT amounts
varying from fl.200 to G3. 600 each and
ten at 81 .0G0 each. The estimated value
of collections of members OF the society
resident ont of Great Britain is placed
at 600 COO n total which cannot include
the enormous collection of Herr Philip
Won Ferrary of Paris. which in itself is
certainly not worth less than 100000.
The Tapling collection, in the British
museum. is supposed TO rank second to
that of Herr Ferlary and is said to he
worth eco 00O The czar,of Russia has
a fine collection. valued at about ESQ.,
900. OF individual stamps the most val
liable are the ! pennyand . penny Post
Office. Mauritius,' of the first issue,
which appeared in September. lSi1. and
which have changed hands at lGSo. y
British Guiana stamp comes next at
1850. A Sandwich Island specimen is
said to be worth E2oo. As regards Eng
lish stamps, the penny black, with the
initials ". r." i'll the corner. is the
most valuable. Twenty wears ago it
was appraised at 90; now it will fetch
five times that amount. 1t seems that
the mania of stamp collecting originated
in Belgium and reached England some
time i'll the late fifties. Mr.. Roberts
thinks that the dozen or so of rari,les IN
stamps will soon be absorbed by public
institutions. and mediocrity becoming
the bane of collections the craze will
gradually die out.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by rlore promptly
adapting the worlds best products TO
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties Of perfect lax
atiye; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation;
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
news, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance. :
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

AN ABUSED WORD.
The Rofuge of the Lazy or Ignorant
TalIxer or Writer.

The Rofuge of the Lazy or ignorant
Talker or Writer.
There are few words in the English
language of such comprehensive appro-
priateness as the word things" We
put on and take off things" We put
down and take up ''things." We walk
over things" and pick things" up,
and put things" away. We love
'things" and hate ''things," and con-
slider ''things" and think about
things" We look beyond the things"
seen to the ''things" not seen. And
these are ''things" temporal, and those
are "things" eternal.
And each and every one of these
"things" has a different significance
and belongs to different class. There
are material things" among them,
and immaterial things" They are
physical and mental; of heaven and
earth: of time and of eternity. A word
of no special definition, it designates
everything in turn. For 1t may be any
thing. 1t may be nothing.
II Is a facile snare to the slipshod
writer. Dilating on the beauties Of
everything" this ''lovely thing" or
that Exquisite thing" tempts him to
rest satisfied with the yielding express
sion which saves search for a more
specific word. 1t is the ready recourse
Of the shallow clatterer, who calls her
/ friend sweet thing" as frequently as
she speaks of her enemy as ''spiteful
thing" It is the refuge Of the lazy,
the negligent, the ignorant talker Of
any age, to whom the proper names Of
articles are superfuous so long as the
word ''things" assist in the dictionary.
So universally misused, abused, and
oyerworked is this general term that
the proper thing under the circum
stances would be so far as possible te
ignore 1t in our own conversation and
in the talk Of other people, and to in
sist that ideas be conveyed by words
which mean exactly what is intended
to be expressed, instead of by a wore
which means anything or nothing q
all. -Harper's Bazaar.

We Are Tired.

We are tired OF some things in con-
nection with our own occupation
that OF publishing a newspaper. In
fact, we are a little more than tired,
we are disguised, and have been a long
time, but have never spoken out in
meetin" until now. The matter is
this: We are tired of the immense
amount of space so many of the papers
of the State use In the wholesale
puffcry of Northern newspapers, mag
azines, &C., and the earnest labor
performed by those papers in endeavor-
ing to extend the circulation of those
foreign publications by clubbing with
them, and advising our people to sub
scribe for them. MI. A. of Mississippi,
reduces the price Of his paper and
offers it with some Northern paper
both for the price Of one" and gets a
new subscriber for a year. At the end
of the year what does this subscriber
do? Well, II he continues either the
home or foreign paper, he will drop
the home paper, and send money in
advance and have the foreign paper
continued to his address. Or, II he
continued the home paper he will not
be apt to pay in advance, but take it
out Of the post Office as long as the
editor will send it to him and not ask
him for the pay. We move that every
paper in Mississippi discontinue the
practice of clubbing with all Northern
publications, and copying, as many Of
them frequently do, great long articles
from this, that, or the other magazine,
or paper, thereby advertising the said
paper, unless they are paid as much
for 1t as they would charge home peo-
pie for the same amount of advertis-
ing space.

"The word sugar." said Mr.. Bif1e-
by, sis often used in the plural. For
example, we see on a sign, sugar and
mOlasses'; but we never use mOlasses
In that form, though there are various
kinds and grades OF it as there are of
sugar. l suspect that our use of the
plural is dictated, toa considerable ex-
tent, by a desire to make the best DOS
sible showing of everything. Thus
teas, c%offees, sugars no doubt conveys
in a general way al idea of a larger
and more varied stock than tea, coffee,

scarcely be produced by the plural of
molasses. Whether it we're right or
wrong, We should be more inclined to
laugh at 'molasses, and so for the sake
of cuphony, il for no other reason, we
stick to just plain molasses. "-(New

The New York newspapers tell
about the establishment OF a new or
der of monks in the Episcopal church
by the profession of Brother Russell
Whitcomb before the bishop of New
York at the church st. Chrysostom's
New York city. The new order will
be known as the Brothers of the
Church. 1t will be composed entirely
of laymen and will be devoted to work
among the poor. The habit of the
order will be . brown cassock, girded,
and the use Of the community will be
as austere as that Of any Of the Cis.
tercians. This is the second order of
lay monks in the Episcopal church,
the other, which is already Of some
age, being the Brothers OF Nazareth.
