Groceries In Brooklyn.

Nowhere are the grocery stores thick

boasts more luxurious class of people

a better average quality of goods there

An Enterprising Barrister.

Lord Chelmsford relates that Il friead
of his at the bar was once engaged i'll D
nautical case, i'll which it appeared that
a vessel had been exposed to very Sc
we're gale of wind and had been thrown
upon her beam ends. The barrister, ig-
norant of nautical matters, asked a sea-
man who was in the witness box how it
was they did not lower the topmast,
upon which the witness said with a
snccr, IF You knew as much of the sea
as do, you would know that this is not
a very easy matter. This incident led
the counsel to turn his attention TO the
subject, and he invented an apparatus
for lowering topmasts, for which he OBJ
tanned 4 patent and realized thereby up
ward Of 500, 600 by this invention. -

ing fe3ce.
In the course of his farewell speech
at the dinner Of the British chamber of
commerce in Paris Lord Dufferin, the
retiring British ambassador, said:
But whatever may be the ups and
downs of the diplomatic career, every
member of the service, no matter how
unpromising the post he occupies, may
console himself with the reflection that,
if he is industrious, prudent. and. above
ali, single minded, the bread he casts
upon the waters will not be lost, and
that, perhaps, when he least expects it,
his day will dawn, for, though, like ev-
erythinS else, the outward aspects of
diplomacy have changed since the be-
ginning of the century, never have the
nations stood i'll greater need of the
thing itself than at the present moment.
What do we see around US: The whole
Of Europe is little better than standing
camp numbering millions of armed
men, while a double row of frowning
ard opposing fortresses bristles along
every frontier. Our harborS are stuffed,
and the seas swarm with ironclad navies,
to whose numbers, l am forced TO ad-
NIT, England has been obliged, in self
defense, to add her modest quota. Even
i'll the remotest east the passion for mil
itary expansion has displayed an unex-
pected development.
I'm fact, thanks to the telegraph, the
globe itself has become a mere bundle
of nerves, aid the slightest disturbance
at any one point of the system sends a
portentious tremor through its morbidly
sensitive surface. We are told by the
poets OF old that when Zeus nodded the
golden halls of his Olympus shock to
their foundations. Today it would SUI
fee fer any one Of half dozen august
personages 10 speak above his breath or
unwittingly to raise his little finger,
and, like i'll Il heaven overcharsed with
electricity, the existing conditions of
unstable equilibrium which sustains the
European political system would be up
SET, and war, wagcd i'll circumstances
of greater horror than has been hitherto
known to the experience Of mankind,
might eventually envelOp not Europe
alone, but two-nay, all the four-con-
tiDcnts ut once, since III every one of
them representatives and Otfshoots OF
the conterding nations would of neces-
siiy be brought into collision.
1t is to prevent catastrophes of this
kind that we meek, civil spoken and
mild hammered persons have been in
vented. Looking at us. you will perhaps
say that we are "a poor and feeble folk
and that our calling is a sorry preserva-
tive against such dangers; but, such as
it Is, it is the best device that human
ingenuity has been able to discover.
After all, "a very thin wire proves per-
fectly effective lightning conductor, and
for over so years, thanks to this UMPIRE
tending agency, an unbroken peace has
been maintained between your native
land and the country with whose pros
perity and welfare your own interests
are SO closely associated.

CEEappy Austria.

The cruel humiliation Austria sui
fered Ill Italy was followed by the crush
ing blow n SadOwa and the not less
painful collapse of u brothers. ambitions
in Mexico. If the dignity of Caesar
was to be saved for the Hapsburgs out
OF the wreck, 1T seemed most likely to
be achieved Oh the lines suggested by
Count Beust. The choice once made, it
was impossible to turn back. What is
given as u boon to distressed rationale
ties III the name of progress cannot aft
erward be withdrawn on the plea of
prudence. The result is pathetic, but
there is no help for it.
We see Greats, Ruthenians, Poles,
Servians, Wallachs and the rest of the
half baTbarous hordes cutting one an
others Threats when they are not COM
blnlnS to insult the civilized Hungari-
ans and Germans, whose fate it is to be
their neighbors. We see Vienna itself
III the hands of fanatical anti-Semitic
rabble. and we see the power Of the only
capable parliamentary party in Austria
broken by hopeless discussions. Truly
the domestic state of the empire is
nothing less than pitiable Its influence
IN Europe IS also a thing of the past.
The Balkan states, which We're its props
III the south, have publicly gone over to
Russia, and its solitary remaining pro-
lection against dismemberment is the
alliance with Italy, which covets Dali
malta, and with Germany, which is
moving heaven and earth TO establish
secret relations with Russia.
