POLICY.

Stated It WI Not Differ Materially From
That Of Canovas.
LONDON, Aug. Pa dispatch from
San Sebastian, Spain, says: General Az.
carraga, the new premier, desires to
continue to policy Of his predecessor,
Senior Canovas del Castillo, as far as
possible, and does not apprehend any
complications. He is confident that the
United States will preserve its present
attitude of cordial friendship and will
not insist upon mediation. Spain would
not refuse to submit to a commission
the settlement of claims Of American
citizens in Cuba, if on the understand
ing that only the damage suffered at
the hands of her forces and authorities
were to be the subject of mediation and
~reserving all her counter claims arising
from flibustering.
Should Minister Woodford be in.
structed to demand autonomy, Spain
would reply that autonomy would have
been granted long ago, had the Cubans
ceased to receive from the United States
the moral and material assistance en-
abling them to p~rolong the struggle and
had they ceased to demand absolute in
dependence.

The Newman Family.

Francis Newman has been gener-
ally described by the papers as a
"orank" and "faddist," but the fact
is that all the members of the fam
lily were more or less eccentric.
When Thomas Motley was one of
the principal leader writer's on The
Times, he never reached his home
until between 8 and 4 in the morn
ing, but his wife, sister of Cardinal
Newman, nevertheless insisted on
his being down to read prayers to
the family and servants at So'olock.
When the future cardinal was lead
ing the Oxford movement, his moth
er and sisters, then living near Ok
ford, were such austere Calvinists
that they would not allow the ia
nous Tracts For the Times" to be
brought into their house.-London

The Secret Of Longevity.

Sir Isaac Holden, who died in his
ninety first year, was neither teeto-
taller nor nonsmoker. Sir Isaac was q
man with theories. According to him,
the two great essentials for those who
would live long and be healthy are
plenty of fresh air and plenty of fruit.
His rule was never, if he could help IL
TO spend less than two hours day "
the open air. When he entered his frs,
situation, he said to his employer that
he would be glad to have an hour daily
in the afternoon for walk. If granted,
he would not ask for any holiday, or
would make up otherwise for the time
SO spent. This was agreed to. Sir Isaac
took his walk daily, and to this, he
used to say, he owed both health and
fortune.
But though in addition to fresh air
he believed in plenty of fruit, Sir Isaac
was not vegetarian. 1t was not meat,
but bread, from which he abstained.
Like Wesley, whose Natural Philoso.
ply he studied when boy, he saw in
farinaceous food thing to be avoided
by the elderly. II take for my break
fast, he said few years ago, ga baked
apple, an orange, 20 grapes and bis
cult made from bananas. My midday
meal consists Of about three ounces of
beef or mutton, with now and again a
half cupful of soup. If I take little
fish, take so much less Of meat. For
supper I practically repeat my breakfast
menu" The orange was his favorite
fruit. Wine he eschewed, but on re-
turning from the house of commons to
Queen Anne's mansions he had a tum-
bier of whisky and hot water before 60
ing to bed. He took no drink with his
food, and this obliged him to masticate
we'll. He smoked two or three cigars a
day, from which he used to say that he
derived both comfort and beneft.-St.

Mark Twain's Visit.

Not long after Mark Twain moved
into his new residence in Hartford one
Sunday morning he was sitting on his
veranda enjoying his cigar and morning
paper. Across the street neighbor was
similarly occupied. Mark started in his
moderate way and walked very leisurely
across the street. The neighbor, who
had never met Mark, much pleased at
the prospect of neighborly call, met
him at the steps of his veranda, giving
him a cordial welcome, insisting upon
his taking the easy chair, Offering a
fresh cigar, etc. Mark sat down and
after thanking him for his welcome said
