Minister Smith was unintention-
ally placed in a wrong light in re-
porting his remarks on the indem-
nifty preamble. The report might
he taken to mean that the Attorney
General knew that the preamble
was designed to add humiliation to
the defeat Of the rebels, but that he
did not want anybody on the out
side to know that such was the OBJ
ject Of the preamble. What he
really said in substance was that the
preamble was not for the purpose Of
rubbing it in" but to have the
facts recorded as matter OF his
torical reference.

How Hill Began Life.

Some young American, ambitious,
but handicapped by being we'll born
and we'll cared for, once said, zone
can't amount to anything in this
country unless he's born in Ireland
or begins as a bootblsck or news
boy" lllustrious examples bear out
his statement. David B. Hill, about
whom we occasionally hear these
days, is n Connecticut farmers son,
and when IL years OF age went to
Syracuse to make his fortune, with
IS in his pocket, He met Dean
Richmond, president of the New
York Central, and made a business
proposal to that gentleman, which
he accepted, more out of amusement
than confidence. Dave Hill became
train boy, selling candy and papers
on the trains between New York and

Bench, Bar, and Beard.

The regulations for shaving OBJ
served in the bench aud bar prob
ably come down from Roman times,
and the history of the custom among
that people is curious one. Pliny
says that boards were universally
cultivated as a matter OF course till
about 300 B. g., when SiciIian bar
bers, who probably acquired their
art from Greece, first came TO Rome,
and Scipio Africanus set the fashion
OF shaving every day. Thencefor-
ward it became so much the vogue
in good society that the term bar
barous, outlandisb, was long sup
posed to mean bearded, in allusion
to the unkempt hair Of uncivilized
nations. Increased accuracy in
etymology has shown the real mean
ing to be akin to balbus, stammer-
ing, in allusion to their uneouth
speech.
For three centuries BARRIERS had it
all their own way in Roman circles.
Then came the Emperor Hatriap,
who, as Plutarch atfirms, grew his
beard to hide some ugly scars, and
forthwith it became the mode. Law
yers and priests, even more conser-
vative in their observances than
other folks, continued to shave;
hence, it is supposed, came the ira
ditional practice OF the English bar,
through the law courts OF Italy aud
France.-GOOd Words.

1t is hard to see the force of the
reasons given for putting that YER
bose preamble in front OF the In
demuity Act. Laws are not made
in the interest Of history, however
much his DRY they incidentally con-
tain. Historians will find all the
material they require in the public
documents aud the newspapers Of
these times, and they will laugh at
this preamble as curio with its
medieval phraseology. For any pre-
ventive quality against political dis
quiet the preamble can be analysed
only in vain.
