given him by James M. Herbert anu
Daniel Sullivan in consideration OF

Jenny Washington.

Philip Vickers Fithian, tutor at
Nomini Hall, Virginia, in 1774, gives
this description Of Washipgton's niece,
Miss Jenny Washington. Evidently
she was personable young lady,
with all the graces Of her time.
Miss Washington is about seven
teen. She has not handsome Face
but is neat in her Dress. of an agree
able Size & well proportioned and has
an easy winning Behaviour; Sae IS
not forward to begin a conversation
yet when spoken to she is extremely
affable, without assuming any Glrl!sh
affectation Or pretending to be over
charg'd with Wit; She plays well on
the Harpsichord & Spinet; under
stands the principles of MuslcK' &
therefore performs her Tunes in per-
feet time, a Neglect Of which always
makes musick intolerable, but 1t is
a fault almost universal among young
Ladies in the practice; she sings Ike
wise to her instrument, has strong
full voice and well-judging Ear; but
most of the Virginia Girls think 1t la
bour quite sufficient to thump the
Keps of a Harpsichord into the an
Of a time mechanically, & think II
would be Slavery to submit to one
Drudeery of acquiring Vocal Muslck.

Maryels of q Watch.

The lifetime of a good watch is
fifty years. In its daily duties the
balance vibrates $4,000 times every
hour, 100000 times a day, or 1877
100000 times year. The hairspring
makes a similar number Of vibrations
and an. equal number Of ticks from
the escapement. If it is a really
good watch, multiply 157,6S0,000 by
fifty, which gives 7.SS4.oo0,oo0 pull
sations for fifty years. The chances
are that the watch may even then
be in serviceable condition. This is
a marvellous record, considering the
small quantity of food that has been
consumed by its constant action. we
say food because whatever labors
must be fed, and the watch lives
on about sixteen inches OF main
spring every twenty-four hours,
which furnishes the power.-Baltl-

PHILIPPINE SURPRISES.
Lovely, Cool Plateaus-Also Marvels
Of Scenery. -,

It seems to me, says Hamilton
Wright, in Leslie's Weekly, that the
least appreciated feature of the Phil
ippines is the diversity Of climate.
Though the Philippines are all in the
tropics, yet frequently within days
travel one will come upon strong cll-
matte contrasts.
Whether you go to the lovely, cool
mountain plateaus or down to the
warmer cities of the sea- level you
will find that though there are
changes of the seasons, still the cli-
mate from day to day varies little.
BY dressing properly one does not
feel the heat so much.
Manila, the hottest place in the
Philippines, is often intensely warm
in March, April and May. Yet pros
trations never come as they do In
New York in midsummer, and above
all there are cool nights everywhere.
Perhaps no country in the world
possesses so many scenic maryels as
the Philippines; regions which were
they known would attract tourists
the world over. There is the wonder
full Taol volcano, rising from the mid
die of lake; there are the vast Cor
dilleras, not surpassed in beauty and
grandeur by any ranges in the world;
there are the wonderful mountain
plateaus and valleys covered with
seas of rich and waving grass and
bordered by forested hogbacks which
project into them as capes project
into the ocean.
Here wild deer and boar roam
in great abundance, while occasional
herds Of wild carabao move clumsily
over the ground. Perhaps for days
in these regions one may not see
native. The Island of Luzon alone
is over 700 miles long; most all the
population live along the seacoast;
but were its wonderful resouces de-
veloped, many times it's present popu-
lation might dwell there in great
prosperity.

MUST SHARE WHARF.
An Alleged Monopoly Of the Southern
Railway at Brunswick, Ga, Seems in
Fair Way to Be Broken Up.

The Bartlett amendment to that por.
ton of the rivers and harbors bill
appropriating $4,000 for Brunswick,
Ca: passed the house Wednesday
morning after Judge Bartlett had pre-.
sented an able argument in favor
Of his proposition. The amendment is
aimed at the Southern railway, and
it is believed will eventually compel
this corporation to allow the Nan
Elizabeth" the use of wharfage rights
at Brunswick.
1t is provided that the chief ensl'
neer, in expending the money ae
Brunswick, shall inquire and report
as to whether any railroad is denying
any independent boat line wharfage
rights. His report will show beyond
question that the Southern is guilty
OF denying the independent boat line
between Macon and Brunswick wharf
age rights. Upon this report Congress-
man Bartlett will base legislation that
will kill the monopoly thus maintained
by the company.
When the Brunswick item was
reached Wednesday morning Con-
gressman Bartlett, with the consent OF
Chairman Burton, offered his amend
ment. He said he had no desire to
jeopardize the appropriation 1cr
Brunswick, but insisted that the gov
efrnment should not improve har-
bors, the wharves Of which are de-
MED independen. boat lines. He then
told of the Southern's effort to re-
strict water competition by denying
wharfage rights to the "Nan Eliza
beth"
Representative Brantley interrupted
to say that the Independent line lad
asked the Southern for the use OF its
wharves free of charge. Mr.. Bartlett
1efuted this statement by reading let
ters that had passed between him.
self arN the late Samuel Spencer. He
shovel that Spencer had declined TO
rent the use OF the wharves for any
consideration.
Chairman Burton took the same
view Of the question as Mr.. Bartlett.
He insisted that the government
should not improve tarbors and al
low the railroad companies and veal
thy boat lines to stiHe competition
by denying wharfage rights to 1nde-
pendent lines.
The Bartlett amendment is an en-
tering wedge for legislation that in
the near future will give Macon direct
water competition to the sea, and bet
ter freight rates are bound to result.
