Read. Parliamentary Rules.

The demand for Reeds Parliamen-
tary Rules" has been sufficient to call
for new edition. In answer to some
inquiries Speaker Reed said; THE sales
of the book have been satisfactory, con.
sidering the fact that it was published
at the beginning of the recent hard
times, and also that its scope and pur-
pose were not generally or well under
stood. A great many persons formed an
idea that it related simply to the rules
and practice of the house of representa-,
tiyes, whereas it was designed to be and
is treatise on parliamentary law ana
practice. That fact, think, is begin
ming to be better understood than it
was. At any rate, ! have no reason TO
complain that the book is not well re-
ceived or that the demand for 1t y NOS

THE SPANISH NATION.
Few Useful or Ingenious Inventions A

Few Useful or Ingenious Inventions At
tributed tn Its Sons.
Tho Spanish government is one Of the
oldest organized in the world. The Span
ish nation is one Of the oldest maintaining
intact its official identity in Europe. In
many of the arts and sciences, as we'll Us
in war, commerce, navigation and geo.
graphical research, Spaniards have taken
high rank, but for some reason Spaniards
have been of very little note as inventors
There are few useful or Ingenious inven-
tions which are attributed To men of Span
ish birth or ancestry. Cannon were used
10y the Spaniards nearly 600 years ago, and
before their use by either the English or
the French, but these cannon We're brought
into Spain by the Moors. The invention
of the microscope is ascribcd to German,
of gunpowder to Hindoo, of printing to Il
German, of the rifle To native of Vienna,
of photography to a Frenchman, OF the
paddock TO "a German, the pendulum TO an
Italian, the mariners compass to China
man, the guitar to an Egyptian, hats to a
Swiss resident Of the city of Paris, the ka-
leidoscope to an Italian, dice To an ancient
Greek, the drum 70 an Arabian, the gal
vanic battery to an Italian, the balloon to
a Frenchman, the barometer to an Italian,
bombs to a Hollander, bayonets to a
Fronchman, the accordion-as an instru-
ment Of music to German resident of
Vienna, fresco painting to an Italian, the
clarinet to a German resident of Lelpsic,
stereotypyng to Frenchman, the tele-
scope TO a Hollander, the thermometer to
Galilei, an Italian; the velocipede, the
forerunner of the bicycle, to- German and
tho limiting press to n Dutchman. But il
does not appear that in any of these inven
lions, either in originating or in perfect
ing them, any Spaniard took prominent
part or indeed any part whatever.
In modern Inventions as the records Of
the patent office establish, Americans
stand not only at the head, but so fal

SOClABlLlTY OF INDIANS.

The Queen Thanks DIR. DE Costa.

Queen Victoria has sent through the
British consulate at New York her
thanks to those of her subjects in this
country who celebrated the jubilee an
niversary of her reign. The Rev. DIR.
BENJAMIN F. De Costa has received an
acknowledgment from the queen OF the
jubilee services held in the church OF
st. John the Evangelist in that city, OF
which DIR. De Costa is the rector. AT
the service the other morning he gave
the substance of the communication,
which came through the British con-
sulate general, and spoke of the courtesy
which had always characterized the
queen in all her relations at home and
abroad. DR.. De Costa said that he
recognized with pleasure the great help
afforded him by f. W. Smythe, organ

Bitufnen.

The Oldest known form of natural ny
drocarbon was the bitumen which rose TO
the surface of tho Dead sea, called from
that circumstance the Asphaltum lake.
Tradition says that 1t used to appear on
the surface in considerable masses and was
collected by the Arabs and exported TO
Egypt, where it was used In embalmlng
and for few purposes in the arts. Inc
ancients were also acquainted with the
LIQUID form of bitumen-petroleum
Herodotus speaks of the mineral oil OF
Zante, and other Greek authors mention
the springs of Agrigentum, the product OF
which was burned in lamps and was known
as Sicilian oil. The fire worshipors of Per-
STA erected temples over the burning
springs.
OF the use of these substances in the MD
die ages and later we chiefly know that
the petroleum springs of Pechelbronn, III
the sixteenth century, spontaneously iur-
nished mineral oil in such quantities that
the peasants around used it to feed their
lamps and grease their carriage wheeis'

A SONG OF TIME.

Weep not for the hereafter.
The burden of the years.
Time fingers not FOR laughter
Ard time stays not for tears.
On swiftest pinions flying
He speeds DER land and sea.
Shall roses dead or dying
Revive because of thee2
Care not for sharp thor springing.
To thee be life complete
If any bird be singing
And any rose be sweet.
Hoed not the storms that chant thee
Lone requiems from afar
II but the gloom shall grant thee
a solitary star.
What ills may come hereafter
Will come despite thy fears.

And time stays not for tears.
