As I was leaving the station I passed the great luggage van again. The scene they presented was so thoroughly characteristic of this country that I passed and watched it with much interest, wishing that some of my London friends were with me to enjoy it. It is quite impossible to describe to the calm English reader the boundless enthusiasm with which an American railway porter contemplates a pile of large trunks. He seems to rejoice in the prospect of "alinging" them as far as possible, and dropping them as "hard" as possible. With two men in the van—the door which opens about three feet above the floor of the station—and two below to catch them, the trunks fly out thick and fast, coming down with a crash and a thump to the large "truck" which is ready to receive them. Each truck holds a pile about ten feet long by six feet high. As soon as loaded, it is rolled ahead and another put in its place. The men spring to their work with as much interest, apparently, as if they were playing a game of cricket or base-ball; and when some huge trunk comes down with a particularly heavy crash, threatening to smash itself and everything in its way, there is a merry laugh all around. If it falls off the truck and carries one or two trunks with it, the porter seems especially exhilarated. I can imagine the delight with which they could see a portmanteau burst open, but I have never seen that catastrophe. Portmanteaus are usually made so strong that the American porter leads a life of disappointed hopes. I saw seven large piles, such as I have described above, loaded on the trucks from one of the luggage vans, while watching this interesting game. I was about to move away, when a small portmanteau belonging to myself suddenly emerged from the recesses of the van, and landed on the top of the pile. This was excellent luck. It was the work of two minutes to secure my prize, and I started for the city in triumph. The rest of my luggage followed in about 36 hours. I called in this morning at the station, and found the porters and transfer agent still struggling energetically in the distribution of accumulated Centennial baggage.

The True Version of a Good Story.
Good stories are often curiously and without the least ill intention perverted in print as in the case of an anecdote of Mr. Sumner, which has recently been reproduced as connected with Macaulay. The Easy Chair is very sure that it gave the correct version some time ago, but it is evidently necessary to give it again, for the credit of Mr. Sumner. This is the form in which it is now generally repeated:
"Mr. Sumner found himself at dinner in England in a distinguished company. Among those present who were strangers to him, and to whom, according to the English fashion, he was not introduced, was Macaulay, who sat near him. One of Mr. Sumner's neighbors, conversing of American subjects, asked if Washington's remains were still at Mount Vernon. Yes,' answered Mr. Sumner; 'this ashes still lie there.' The disdainful historian blurted out, 'Ashes!' was he burned up, then! Mr. Sumner, overwhelmed by the discourtesy, at a loss for a reply, was silent. He might have met the insinuation with Gray's line,
"'E'en in our ashes live their wonted fires.'"
In fact, the scene was a breakfast at Landor's. Somebody asked Mr. Sumner whether George Washington was buried under the Capitol, and he replied, substantially, that his ashes were at Mount Vernon. "What!" roared Landor, "I am amazed that a gentleman of Mr. Sumner's scholarship should use such a word. Was Washington's body burned?" Sumner instantly retorted, "Am I to understand, Mr. Landor, when I read in Gray's elegy,
'Even in our ashes live their wonted fires,' that the poet refers to some cinerary process formerly in vogue in this country? And he further confounded Landor by quoting from the English burial service, "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust." Mr. Sumner was very fond of telling the story, while the question which provoked his retort was one that Macaulay's ready and ample memory would probably have prevented his asking. —Editor's Easy Chair, in Harper's Magazine.
Wit.—Almost all the great poets, orators, and statesmen of all times have been witty. When wit is combined with sense and information: when it is softened by benevolence, and restrained by strong principle; when it is in the hands of a man who can use it and despise it, who can be witty and something much better than witty, who loves honor, justice, decency, good nature, morality and religion, ten thousand times better than wit; wit is then a beautiful and delightful part of nature.
There is no more interesting spectacle than to see the effects of wit upon the different characters of men; than to observe it expanding caution, relaxing dignity, unfreezing coldness—teaching age and care and pain to smile—extorting reluctant gleams of pleasure from melancholy, and charming even the panga of grief. It is pleasant to observe how it penetrates through the coldness...
HARRIET MARTINEAU, the famous English author, died on the evening of the twenty-seventh of June, at her residence, "The Knolls," Ambleside, Westmoreland county, England. She was born on the twelfth of June, 1802, and published her first work in 1823. She visited this country in 1834-6. She was the author of a vast number of popular books on religion, political and social topics, health, travel, romances, etc. Her most popular novel, "Deerbrook," was published in 1839.
ROBERT NAPIER, the noted ship-builder, whose death was announced from London, recently, began business on his own account at the age of 24, in Glasgow, where he bought a blacksmith's shop for $225. In 1823 he made his first marine engine for a Glasgow steamer. In 1833 he fitted up the British war vessel Duke of Wellington, which was then the largest ship in the navy. When iron-clads came into favor the Napier adapted their works to the demands of the time, and constructed both the Black Prince, 6,100 tons, and the Hector, 4,060 tons. In later years they built several steam-rams and war-vessels for foreign nations. In 1855 Mr. Napier received the great gold medal of honor at the Paris Exposition, and the decoration of the legion of honor.
A STORY OF SIR WALTER SCOTT.—Lord Aberdare tells the following story of Sir Walter Scott:—On one occasion, when he was acting as chairman of a public dinner of an agricultural society, Sir Walter proposed the health of the Ministry of the day, which was that of Pitt and Dundas. The toast was received with great acclamation; but immediately afterward a sturdy member of the liberal party got up and proposed the health of his Majesty's opposition. That proposal must with violent opposition, and the feeling was so strong that it seemed likely that the gentleman who made the proposal would be ejected. At last the chairman got up and said that he saw no reason why that toast should not be proposed, with a slight addition, and he would therefore propose "the health of his Majesty's opposition, and long may they keep their plans."
MRS. LINCOLN'S ESTATE.—It was announced that Mrs. Lincoln, widow of Abraham Lincoln, had been released from guardianship, a jury having declared that she has been restored to reason and was capable of managing her estate. Therefore her son, Mr. Robert Lincoln, her conservator, rendered his account, showing the estate amounts to $81,360,-35, and additions are being annually made in the shape of government bonds, which are purchased with the surplus of her income. This year over $4,000 worth of bonds were added, and but for the great outlay incident to the unfortunate position in which she has been placed, a large investment could have been made. A copy of the report of the conversation was sent to Mrs. Lincoln, and the following reply was received: "I have received the amount forwarded by Robert Lincoln for the last year, and subscribe my name to it as being correct."

Good Story.
curiously and motion perverted anecdote of Mr. only been reproducailay. The good Story.
Every nation has its flag. Every ship in foreign waters is known by the colors she shows at her peak. The French frigate holts her bunting of three vertical stripes, red, white and blue; the English men-of-war shows a red flag with the crosses of St. Andrew and St. George on a blue union in the upper left-hand corner; and the Anstrian, a double-headed eagle, on a yellow ground—every nation with a name and a place, having its own appropriate symbol.
When we were colonies of England, we sailed and fought under her flag. Twenty years before the Revolution, when we were at war with the French and their allies the Indians, many a brave man in some hot skirmish with Indians would have welcomed the sight of the red flag of England—it would mean aid and comfort when sorely pressed.
But the time was coming when he was to hate it as much as he had hated the French colors. The time was coming when the sight of it was to mean oppression and tyranny to him, and every feeling of his nature would be roasted against it. Every child knows how we finally rebelled; it was nothing less, and, to England, our George Washington was merely a leading rebel. It was a bold proceeding. We were thirteen little states fringed along on the Atlantic coast, with the unbroken forest behind us, and among the great family of nations we had neither place nor name. We were like the last new boy at a public school—we had to fight to obtain due respect from all the great old nations who were looking on.
Of course we had no flag; we had to earn that, too. For a year or so our privateers carried the Massachusetts State flag. It was better, they thought, than the English flag, at any rate. The field was of white bunting; in the middle a great pine tree, and on the opposite side the motto, "Appeal to Heaven."
Washington, in his character of General-in-Chief, commissioned several private schooners, and they all carried this flag.
The Alfred was one of the few large ships we had, and she carried the pine-tree flag, and, beside that, one with thirteen stripes, in red and white, but with no stars; while on the stripes was coiled a rattle-snake, with the motto, "Don't tread on me." The rattle-snake being found only in America, there was, of course, a peculiar meaning in this emblem.
In the early part of the Revolution, some of the South Carolina regiments carved Our Flag.
Liver Champaign.
By H.T.Pierre M.D., of the World's Discipley Institute, Belfast, S.T., Author of "The People Common Name Medical Admission," etc.
The Liver is the great dispensing (gently-limited) organ of the system, and has very apparently been formed the "bowlkeepers" of our health. I have observed in the dissection room, and also in making post-mortem examinations of the bodies of those who have died of different diseases, that in a large proportion of cases, the liver has given evidence of having at same time been diseased. Liver affections are equally prevalent in beasts. Every butcher knows that the liver of cattle, sheep, and swine, are ten times as frequently diseased as any other organ. A healthy liver each day secretes about two and a half pounds of bile. When it becomes torpid congested, or if from any cause, it be disabled in the performance of its duties; it is evident that the elements of the bile must remain in the blood, thus irritating poisoning, and perverting every vital process. Nature attempts to rid the system of these noxious materials by means of other organs, as the kidneys, lungs, skins, etc., which become overactive in performing their additional labor, and are unable to withstand the pressure.
The brain, which is the greatest electrical centre of all vitality, becomes overstimulated with unhealthy blood, and fails to normally perform its functions. Hence there is dullness, headache, impairment of the memory, dizziness, gloomy forebodings, and irritability of temper. When the blood is diseased, the skin manifests discolored spots, pimples, blotches, boils, carbuncles, and scarfulous tumors. The stomach and bowels, sooner or later, become affected, and constipation, piles, dropsy, dyspepsia, or diarrhoea is the inevitable result.
SYMPTOMS OF LIVER COMPLAINT.
A shallow color of the skin, or yellowish-brown spots on the face and other parts of the body; dullness and drowsiness, with frequent headache; dizziness, bitter or bad taste in the mouth; dryness of the throat,and internal heat; palpitation of the heart,a dry teasing cough,sore throat.unsteady appetite,sour stomach,raising of the food,and a choking sensation in the throat;sickness and vomiting,distress,heaviness,and a bloated,或 full feeling about the stomachand sides; aggravating pain in the sidesback,或 breast,and about the shoulders;colic pains and soreness through the bowels;piles,fatulence,nervousness,coldness ofthe extremities,rush of blood to the headwith symptoms of apoplexy; numbness ofthe limbs(especially at night),and chillsAlternating with hot flashes; kidney and other urinary difficulties,dullness,low spirits,and gloomy forebodings. Only a few of these symptoms will be likely to be present in any case at one time.
TREATMENT.-Take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,以small doses of his Pleasant Purgative Pellets,they act as an alternative on the liver.For Liver Complaintandthe various affections caused by a diseased liver,these remedies are unsurpassed.The Golden Medical Discovery does not simply palliatethe disease,但它 produces a lasting effect.By its use,the liver and stomach are changed
Washington, in his character of General-in-Chief, commissioned several private schooners, and they all carried this flag.

The rattle-snake being found only in America, there was, of course, a peculiar meaning in this emblem.
In the early part of the Revolution, some of the South Carolina regiments carried the palmetto-tree on their flag. That was a very good symbol, and the State yet keeps it on her coat of arms, though it grows everywhere in the South. The palmetto logs at Fort Moultrie were found very good things to receive cannon balls when that fort was besieged by the British in June of 1776.
There was this multiplicity of flags, because we did not clearly know what we were. No nation had acknowledged us as belonging to their great family yet; in fact, we had not quite cut loose from England, yet we were fighting her with all our might, and it seemed absurd to be under her colors. In the fight at Bunker Hill, the flag planted in the corner of that famous redoubt was of blue bunting, with the cross of St. George in red in the corner, and a pine-tree, that same pine-tree, in the upper right-hand quarter of the cross.
Our army at Cambridge celebrated New Year's Day, Jan. 1, 1776, not as the Chinese, by firing crackers and illuminating lanterns in the evening, nor yet by making calls, but by unfurling for the first time in an American camp the flag of thirteen stripes. But even then we had not declared ourselves independent of great Britain, and this flag had the British union in the corner,and the crosses of St. Andrew and St. George.
Finally, on the 14th of June, 1776, Congress, which met then in Philadelphia, settled upon our style of flag. "It shall have," said they, "thirteen stripes, alternate red and white, and the union of the States shall be indicated by thirteen stars, white, in a blue field, representing a new constellation."
It was not until forty years ago that it was decided to add another star for every new State, as it joined the union. So that the constellation, as it is now, with nearly forty stars in it, has grown a good deal from the original thirteen. But the stripes still remain the same in number, to remind us of the first little band of States who "fought it out" against Great Britain.—Kate Foote, in St. Nicholas for July.
"Previous Question Cushman."
John Randolph was a rambling, interminable speaker, who frequently in a three hour's speech would not allude to the subject of debate. But he would discuss history, biography, poetry, politics, in fact would ramble over every field except the one that the House of Representatives was then surveying. His haranguues, however, were so studded with repartee, sarcastical personalities, and eloquent passages, that despite their length and incoherence, the House generally enjoyed them. But whether his speech was enjoyable or sorrowful through the bowels; constipation; alternating with diarrhoea; piles; fatulence; nervousness; coldness of the extremities; rush of blood to the head; with symptoms of apoplexy; numbness of the limbs (especially at night); and chills; alternating with hot flashes; kidney and other urinary difficulties; dullness, low spirits, and gloomy forebodings. Only a few of these symptoms will be likely to be present in any case at one time.
TREATMENT.—Take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, with small doses of his Pleasant Purgative Pellets, which act as an alternative on the liver. For Liver Complaint and the various affections caused by a diseased liver, these remedies are unsurpassed. The Golden Medical Discovery does not simply palliate the disease; but it produces a lasting effect. By its use, the liver and stomach are changed to an active, healthy state; the appetite is regulated, the blood purified and enriched; and the entire system renovated and restored to health.

"Previous Question Cushman."
John Randolph was a rambling, interminable speaker, who frequently in a three hour's speech would not allude to the subject of debate. But he would discuss history, biography, poetry, politics, in fact would ramble over every field except the one that the House of Representatives was then surveying. His haranguues, however, were so studded with repartee, sarcastic personalities, and eloquent passages, that despite their length and incubence, the House generally enjoyed them. But whether his speech was enjoyable or distasteful, woe be to any member who called him to order! He was sure to be hit by Mr. Randolph's boomerang.
There was a member of Congress from Maine who was so in the habit of calling for the "previous question," that he was nicknamed "Previous Question Cushman." He had often annoyed Mr. Randolph by calling him to order. In one of his long speeches, Mr. Randolph spoke of the mechanical ingenuity of the Germans, as seen in the clocks made by them. In some of these clocks automatic birds would come out and sing, or figures of men would perform curious antics, bow and retire. One clock he remembered, from which the figure of a man—looking at Mr. Cushman—would frequently pop up, cry out, "Previous question! Previous question!" and then pop down again out of sight.
The House roared with laughter, and the voice of Mr. Cushman was never again heard calling for the "previous question."
Bantino has been out-done in the art of reducing the too ponderous frame to reasonable proportions, a doctor in Deleware having found a remedy for obesity which requires no change of diet. He says the Sargossa or Gulf weed, which is cast up in large quantities along our coast, is a safe cure for too great adiposity. A tea is made of the weed, which should be carefully washed before steeping, and is drank ad libitum. The doctor tried it on himself, taking no other drinks, and in a few weeks he was relieved of uncomfortable corpulence. Those stouter persons for whom he prescribed it lost twelve to thirty pounds within a few weeks' time.
We value little that which costs us no trouble to maintain.
