Detroit Currency. When a man falls dead beside his snow shovel, those who help carry the body into the house and glad that they were born lazy. Winslow's defense will not be insanity. He will claim to have inherited a morbid appetite for the good things which money can buy. Brooklyn makes out that it is a healthy city by publishing such statements as: "There were three deaths less this week than last." It is a sad thing to see a man staggering along the street, drunk, on a day in February, under the impression that it is last Christmas. Mark Twain won't take his wife on a railroad journey because she encourages the boy with periodicals, stale figs, candy and moldy peanuts. The days are growing so much longer that men who used to dodge in after a drink at a quarter to five P.M. now stand shivering around till after six. Is it billiards that are "a healthy exercise," or is it the act of walking from the table to the bar, throwing the head back and murmuring, "Um-um-um!" Senator Sharon has an income of three or four thousand dollars a day, and yet when he has his boots blacked and hands out ten cans he shivers around for the change. The five-cent cigar has returned in all its glory, and it is no longer considered mean for a rich man to smoke them. This was the only great question before the country. A Chicago man declines to run for office. Owing to the loss of all the exclamation points belonging to this font, we can't make this news stand out half as conspicuously as it should. It is said that the old Romans also loved office, but they never had the feeling which an American constable has—never felt that their shoulders carried over half the burden of government. An Illinois juror stuck for "not guilty" in a case where he was positive that the prisoner was guilty. The man owed him $40, and if he went to prison how could he pay? Charity always begins at home. A North Carolina lawyer recently tried to convict a man of seventeen different offenses, but he found he had too big a Three Customs of Throwing a Shot in the Sea at Cyprus. One of the chief seats of the annual symposium of Venus, still keeps up sandry festivals defined from that worship, though limited with Christian or at least Biblical ideas. One of the strongest of these occurs on the 11th of June in each year and is called the "Catadysmo," a name that is merely the Cypriote form of "Catalysmo," meaning, of course, the flood. But the festival has nothing more than the name that can refer to the deluge. As the day approaches gay preparations are made on shore, and the boatmen paint their boats in gaudy colors and adorn them with flags and streamers. When the day comes a young girl in her teens, as remarkable for beauty as can be found, is forcibly captured and carried out on the sea in a boat, the other boats of the neighborhood accompanying in a fleet. At the proper distance from shore, with various (and probably appropriate) ceremonies, the girl is thrown into the sea. As she rises again from the water she is picked up with loud demonstrations of joy, taken into the gayest boat and carried to the shore in triumph. She is then crowned, provided with attendants of honor, and worshipped all the day as a queen or demi-goddess. Besides the ceremonies, which are much like the English Mayday, there is an abundance of noise and revelry, which are usually kept up through the following night, rendering sleep in the neighborhood impossible. The scholar will at once recognize here a relic from the worship of Venus Anadyomene, who rose from the waves near Cyprus. The inhabitants say this ceremony has existed among them "from the time of Venus," in whom they believe as a veritable personage. The Scene When Lincoln was Shot. Walt Whitman, in his forthcoming book, thus describes the scenes in the theatre at Washington after Lincoln was shot: "A moment's hush, incredulous—a scream—the cry of murder—Mrs. Lincoln leaning out of the box with ashy cheeks and lips, with involuntary cry, pointing to the retreating figure: 'He has killed the President.' And still a moment's strange, incredulous suspense—and then the deluge; then that mixture of horror, noises, uncertainty—the sound, somewhere back, of a horse's hoofs clattering with speed—the people burst through chairs and notifications. In the time of his place at the Heart Quatre, he forth—"The poets are not now working-class bonnets; 3. Sisters or mistress their parents; 6. Dazles."

An Illinois juror stuck for "not guilty" in a case where he was positive that the prisoner was guilty. The man owed him $40, and if he went to prison how could he pay? Charity always begins at home. A North Carolina lawyer recently tried to convict a man of seventeen different offenses, but he found he had too big a job on hand. Murder, arson, burglary and robbery were all the charges that could be proved to the satisfaction of the jury. A Boy's Composition on Parents. Parents are born to be a great trouble to their offspring. They upset all a fellow's plans. It would be jolly not to have any. When I was ever so little, I remember, I tried to hang up the kitten by my whip-lash, and mother took the kitten away, boxed my ears and went and drowned it herself the next day. So she had all the fun herself; and father's worse than mother. He told me to take care of the pennies, and the dollars would take care of themselves; so I and Ben Smith formed an Anti-Swearing Club. We had a rule that for every profane word we used we should pay a cent into the treasury. We had seventy-five cents in the first day, but when we divided, and I fetched thirty-seven and a half cents home, father said it was a bad business, whipped me and broke up the club. How is a fellow to know when he is doing right? If I had no parents to hound me round, I'd beat George Washington all holler, for I'd cut down every cherry tree in the garden, and own it, too. If I was an orphan, I know what I'd do to-morrow, Ben Smith and me would go straight to a desolate South Sea Island; and stir up the goats and monkeys and things, crack cocon-nuts, fry bread-stools, eat oranges a spell, then we'll make a ship and sail round the world. What's the use of drying up in one place? I told mother one day when she wouldn't give me ten cents, that I meant to go a-whaling, and I hoped a whale would swallow me, as one did Jonah, and then she wouldn't never see me again, for I can't swim. She said I wouldn't be likely to make much of a visit, for I would turn the whale's stomach mighty quick after I got there. If I were a parent, I know what I'd do; I'd keep still and mind my own business, and let my children have some fun. There’s Tom Cutts lives with his aunt, and he has a bully time. He goes wood-chucking and eeling Sundays, has no best clothes, and no pocket-handkerchief to bother him, crawls under the canvass of every circus tent, earns money at the theatre, sleeps in the stable when he likes, and always has his pocket full of peanuts. He says he wouldn’t be bothered with parents, if he could have ‘em for nothing, and he thinks if I hadn’t any, it would be money in my pocket. Them’s my sentiments. He is Going to Resign. In Foryth, one day last week, a gentleman standing in the street noticed a scene when Lincoln was shot. Walt Whitman, in his forthcoming book, thus describes the scenes in the theatre at Washington after Lincoln was shot. “A moment’s bush, incredulous—a scream—the cry of murder—Mrs. Lincoln leaning out of the box with ashy cheeks and lips, with involuntary cry, pointing to the retreating figure: 'He has killed the President.' And still a moment’s strange, incredulous suspense—and then the deluge! then that mixture of horror, noises, uncertainty—the sound, somewhere back, of a horse’s hoofs clattering with speed)—the people burst through chairs and railings, and break them up—that noise adds to the queerness of the scene—there is inextricable confusion and terror—women faint—quite feeble persons fall and are trampled on—many cries of agony are heard—the broad stage suddenly fills to suffocation with a dense and motley crowd like some horrible carnival—the audience rushes generally upon it—at least the strong men do—the actors and actresses are still there in their play costumes and painted faces, with mortal fright showing through the rouge, some trembling, some in tears—the screams and calls, confused talk—redoubled, trebled—two or three manage to pass up water from the stage to the President’s box—others try to clamber up—etc., etc. And in the midst of that night pandemonium of senseless hate, infuriated soldiers, the audience and the crowd—the stage, and all its actors and actresses, its paint pots, spangles and gaslights—the life blood from those veins, the best and the land, drips slowly down, and death’s ooze already begins its little bubbles on the lips.” A Nation of Liars. —The island of Ceylon is very beautiful, the scenery lovely, and the soil productive in spices and many kinds of fruits; indeed, it is said that it alone might produce sufficient coffee for the consumption of the entire world. The natives are, however far from pleasing; they are generally of short stature, very effeminate looking, apathetic and such liars that it is impossible to depend upon their word. If they may but repose for hour after hour under a tree with a piece of bread fruit beside them, they seem to care for little else. The men wear their hair turned up behind with a comb denoting the rank of the wearer. This and their small features gives them altogether such an effeminate appearance that it is difficult for a European to distinguish them from the females. A visitor lately entered one of the schools, and seeing a row of boys sitting with their backs toward him, and each with a comb in his head, unconsciously asked if boys and girls were educated together. One of the natives of high rank was lately called on to give evidence at a trial, and swore such complete falshoods that he was imprisoned for perjury. He applied to the English governor, and with surprise asked why he should be punished for what his people did. “My father,” he said, “was a liar, and my grandfather was a liar, and we are all liars. It is the custom of my country. Why should I be punished?” Piracy on the Mediterranean. Beware my friend known.

In Forayth, one day last week, a gentleman standing in the street noticed a two-mule wagon drive up to one of the stores. There was nothing peculiar in this, but what particularly struck his attention was the fact that the driver, a colored man, had an exceedingly lengthy pair of reins, and was seated in the hindmost part of the wagon. When the team stopped, the negro cautiously fastened the lines to a standard, got out over the hind wheel and made a circuit of forty or fifty feet to get to the heads of the mules. This so excited the gentleman's curiosity that he walked up and asked: "Look here, uncle, you are not crazy, are you?" "Does I look like a crazy nigger, Mars Tom!" "Well, what in the name of common sense are you cutting up these antics for—walking almost twice around the wagon to get to your mules, and sitting on the 'gate' to drive!" The negro looked at the gentleman a moment and then burst into an uncontrollable fit of laughter. "What the devil do you mean!" Mars Tom, don't you know dat off mule dar! Dat's Mars Tump Ponder's roan mule." "Well, what the mischief is the matter with the mule!" Why, Mars Tom, dat mule is a sight—dat mule is. She's the ogodliest mule in all cra'shun. She got sense like white folks. No nigger can't come foolin' round her. Only las' Chuseday she kickt a brass bres'pin off a town merlatter's shirt boxum. Trufe, Mars Tom.

I'm too fun' of my family, an'd don't belong to no church, audder—Samanah News. Piracy on the Mediterranean. The Copenhagen Dugbladet publishes a report from the captain of the Danish schooner Lucinda, in which he states that on the 2d of last month (January) about noon, and within four English miles of the fortress of Gibraltar his ship was hailed by a boat, which, when it came alongside and had got a line on board, turned out to contain an armed crew of nine men, looking like thorough pirates. Some of the crew tried to get on board the schooner, when the captain let go the line, when the crew in the boat began firing at the schooner, and it was later found that five balls had pierced the malnsail, one through the mainstay sail, and two more entered other parts of the ship. The captain adds that the day was clear, and that it was impossible that occurrence should not have been witnessed from Gibraltar. This, it appears, is only one of the several attempts at piracy occurring lately in the Straits of Gibraltar within British jurisdiction complained of in Scandinavian papers. A Millionaire on Taxation. "The largest individual tax-payer in Boston," Nathan Matthews, pays a tax of $35,388. He complains of the unjust over valuation of his real estate, and says that his whole productive real estate—that is, nearly 100 stores and dwelling houses and wharf property—does not produce an average return of three per cent. over insurance and taxes. A store which rent for only $10,000 is taxed at $195,000. This is in the burnat district, but his north end property is rated so high that it does not rent for over three per cent.; even taking the average of seven years this holds good, so both are the assessors to recognize the depreciation of property in any district. He gives instances outside of Boston where the valuation has been increased at the request of the owners to promote transfers at a fraudulent value, and charges the savings banks with relying too fully on the sums.

In the time of Napoleon III, a notice was placed at the entrance to the Pavilion Henri Quatre, at St. Germain, setting forth—The persons hereunder mentioned are not allowed to enter: 1. Men in working-clothes; 2. Women without bonnets; 3. Servants without their masters or mistresses; 4. Children without their parents; 5. Wives without their husbands; 6. Dogs without their muzzles." Somebody blundered, but that somebody has the consolation of knowing officials of the new regime are just as fallible. When the Prefect of Lyons decreed that cafes and wine shops must close their doors at half-past eleven, he thought it necessary to warn all persons chancing to be in such places at that time of night that they must leave without being compelled to do so. His brother of Grenoble capped this by announcing—No burial without religious rites would be permitted except with the expressed wish of the deceased—displaying as much consideration for the defunct as the officials of the War Department did in ordering that, "whenever a soldier on half pay shall die, or whenever a soldier shall be placed upon half-pay, he shall be informed of it by the War Minister." Impracticable rules are easily made; it is not so easy to make a regulation defying evasion, a feat accomplished by the authorities of Denver, when they notified all travelers over the town-bridge that "no vehicle, drawn by more than one animal, is allowed to cross this bridge in opposite directions at the same time." A clerical land-owner, finding his warrens were poached while he preached, sought to insure his game a quiet Sunday by warning offenders in this wise: "Remember the Sabbath to keep it holy. Beware, my friends; your names are all known. If you trespass on these fields, or touch my rabbits, you will be prosecuted according to the law." The reverend rabbit preserver was not inclined to make nice distinctions like the turnip-grower, who politely intimated: "Ladies and gentlemen are requested not to steal the turnips; other persons, if detected, will be prosecuted." And he might have taken a lesson in liberality from a gentleman who put up a board inscribed, "Ten shillings reward! Any person found trespassing on these lands or damaging these fences, on conviction, will receive the above reward!" It may beQueen New William Hicks Law School Tuition Slow Learning Institute.

Modern Chemical Science enables Dr. Pierce to extract from the Juices of the most valuable roots and herbs their active medicinal principles, which, when worked into little Pellets or Granules, scarcely larger than mustard seed, renders each little Pellet as active and powerful as a large pill, while they are much more palatable and pleasant in effect. Dr. Ira A. Thayer, of Baconsburg, Ohio, writes: "I regard your Pellets as the best remedy for the conditions for which you prescribe them of anything I have ever used, so mild and certain in effect, and leaving the bowels in an excellent condition. It seems to me they must take the place of all other cathartic pills and medicines." LYON & Macomber, druggists, Vermillion, D.T., say: "We think they are going to sell like hot cakes as soon as people get acquainted with them and will spoil the pull trade, as those that have used them like them much better than large pills."

The reverend rabbit preserver was not inclined to make nice distinctions like the turnip-grower, who politely intimated: "Ladies and gentlemen are requested not to steal the turnips; other persons, if detected, will be prosecuted." And he might have taken a lesson in liberality from a gentleman who put up a board inscribed, "Ten shillings reward! Any person found trespassing on these lands or damaging these fences, on conviction, will receive the above reward." It may be questioned if he would have been as true to his word as the Aberdeen factor who was wont to jog the memory of a laggard tenant with, "To avoid all proceedings unpleasant, I beg you will pay what is due; If you do, you will oblige me at present; If you don't, why, I'll oblige you." No writer of stories with a purpose ever succeeded so thoroughly as Foote, when he invented his tale of the Grand Panjandrum for Macklin's disconstiture, which remains unsurpassed as a piece of pure nonsense; but a Lahore hotel-keeper's notice to his customers would serve equally well as a mnemonic test, for we might safely "bet our pile" against any of the patrons finding a place in their memory for such a wondrous example of English composition as this: "Gentlemen who come in hotel not say anything about their meals they will be charged for, and if they should say beforehand that they are going out to breakfast or dinner, etc., and if they say that they have not anything to eat, they will be charged, and if not so, they will be charged, or unless they bring it to the notice of the manager of the place; and should they want to say anything, they must order the manager for, and not any one else, and unless they not bring it to the notice of the manager, they will charge for the least things according to the hotel rate, and no fuss will be allowed afterward about it. Should any gentleman take wall-lamp or candle-light from the public rooms, they must pay for it without any dispute its charges. Monthly gentlemen will have to pay my fixed rate made with them at the time, and should they absent day in the month, they will not be allowed to deduct anything out of it, because I take from them less rate than my usual rate of monthly charges." Not long ago, the girls of a Maine factory, rather than submit to a reduction of wages, gave the mill owners a month's notice, and at the same time issued a notice to the public in general, and the masculine public in particular, in these words: "We are now working out our notice; can turn our hands to most anything; don't like to be idle, but determined not to work for nothing when folks can afford to pay. Who wants help? We can make bonnets, dresses, puddings, pies; knit, roast, stew, and fry; make butter and cheese, milk cows and feed chickens, hoe corn, sweep out the kitchen, put the parlor to rights, make beds, split wood, kindle fires, wash and iron, besides being remarkably fond of babies; in fact, can do almost anything the accomplished housewife is capable of doing, not forgetting the scold- OF CALIFORMIA, No. 41 Second St., Sacramento.
