SO low for judicial service as not to be

most material contribution to the
maintenance of independence on the

growth, maturity and decline? 1t pre-
sents all the phenomena Of animal and
vegetable growth. 1t sprouts from the
brain without any prolongation Of the
frontal bone. 1t rises and breaks
through the sinews and takes root on
the bone, growing the same as vege-
table. 1t is nourished by and secretes
albumen upon the surface and disposes
Of the 6brin the same as an animal.
1t Is clothed with skin and hairy
coat very different from those on the
rest of the body. This covering and
hair possess property unknown In
other animal bodies-that of being a
styptic to stanch its own blood when
wounded. 1t carries marks Of the age
on the buck by putting out an extra
brunch each year. which shows an ad-
ditionai power each year to produce
them. And this power does not exist
In the female. So this difference is
more distinctly marked than in any
other class of animals. Again. the horn
possesses properties unknown in any
other animal matter. 1t is entirely in
odorous. capable of resisting putrefac-
ton and almost impervious to the ef-
fects of the atmosphere.
And still water at 300 degrees r.
will dissolve these horns readily. even
though they are not soluble IN alcohol
and resist the action Of acids and aka
lis. 1t Is the only vegeto animal sub
stance that we know of that does not
perpetuate itself by procreation.
The male and the female are sus-
tanned by the same nutrition and ele-
ments. and only the male produces
horns. This phenomenon is quite as
much of q curiosity as the absence of

The American people once elected
tailor to the presidency, and doubt
less many nunipulators of the shenrs
und goose have sat III the seats OF the
mighty by election. but only once did
tailor make himself ut home on the
floor of the United States senate when
he had no constituency to represent.
The tailor was Hermann Moritz
Riedel of Philadelphia. who visited
Washington in April. 1868. to attend
the exciting scenes during the i'm
parchment proceedings against An
drew johnson. fellow craftsman.
And this is the account of how he
witnessed these proceedings rs pub
lished In the Washington Republican
of that day:
"a good looking Teutonic friend OF
ours day or two since made an eur

gins was detained outside of the door
for 4 few moments. aud our German
friend went Oh and passed the vigilant
sentinels at the outer door and went
directly to the entrance of the senate
chamber and was admitted by the
gentlemanly ushers under the belief
probably that he was member Of
congress and passed through the vesti-
bule and took his seat in the first va
cant chair and there remained during
the entire session IN the confident be-
lief that he was entitled to the seat"
