Courier-Journal Items. To young poets: Tennyson wears a slouch hat and long hair. The French smoked six hundred tons of cigarettes during 1876. In California a woman is never "the wife of his bosom." She is "the lady of his home." The Postmaster General has laid away fifteen thousand applications for office, "never to be thought of again." Out of 200,000 adult females of the human family in this city, not over 2,000 know how decently to cook a breakfast.—New York Mail. Dr. Holland, who gets $20,000 a year, says that one of the most precious possessions that ever comes to a man in this world is a woman's heart. The grasshopper is getting ready for a vigorous campaign in the West. In States that voted for Hayes he is said to be appallingly numerous. An Iowa idiot put a silver quarter on the railroad track, that the train conveying the sainted Beecher might run over it and render it forever precious. A ruler who appoints any man to an office, when there is in his dominions another man better qualified for it, sins against God and against the State—Koran. The Father of his Country is not petrified, as has been reported, but there is no saying that he wouldn't be if he could come back and see what's been done since he's been gone.—Boston Post. The Graphic alleges that the oysters in the New York aquarium open their mouths at the approach of their keeper, and that they try to follow him about by a series of ungainly leaps. If this doesn't start a clammy perspiration upon the regal brow of Truth, nothing will open her pores. George Francis Train has joined, no doubt with a view to lead, the crusade against lawyers. Thus splitters his redundant genius: "Life, property, honor, Electoral College, Congress, finance, railways, legislation; everything is in the hands of lawyers. Two-thirds of all cabinets, conventions, congresses are lawyers. The curse is universal. Hornets, grasshoppers, potato-bugs in every city! Cobra; spitz, moccasin, boa in Congress! Jackal, hyena, pole-cat in all legislation! The Boston Bankers'. Something more than fifty years since there was a large banking establishment at Boston, Summit county, in this State, on the banks of the Cuyahoga. Its mode of doing business was a little different from our present institutions, but like the modern Greenbackers, it labored zealously to remove the money stringency by the issue of paper money. It discounted only to its own stockholders. Probably all those pioneer financiers are now dead. We understand that the late General Bierce, of Akron, who was a long time their legal adviser, left memorands of their operations which must be exceedingly interesting. Jim Brown was president and general manager. William Ashley, who died in the penitentiary, was cashier and general discount agent. Several leading men of Portage, Summit, and Medina counties were directors. They were also in several instances Justices of the Peace. The old brick banking house still stands at Boston Center, between the canal and the river bridge. There were engravers from New York interested in the concern, who furnished genuine plates of bills on the leading Eastern banks, and of the United States Bank. Ashley and Brown were the accomplished penman who filled in the necessary blanks with the names of the real officers of the banks, and the paper was ready for circulation. A class of middle-men received it generally at fifty cents on the dollar, started out to exchange it for other money or property. These are the parties who ran the principal risks of the penitentiary and who generally got them. They were bound to shield each other to the last extremity; to swear in the courts, to spirit away witnesses, and, if necessary, to murder them. The organization was in Ku-Klux form, secret and complete, and generally efficient. This, now forgotten, currency, which was well known half a century since throughout the valley of the Mississippi, was brought to our attention by the semi-centennial of the Western Reserve College at Hudson, in July last. A man by the name of Carr had sold a drove of hogs to one of Brown's middle-men for counterfeit money. He soon got into trouble, and in defiance of the oath of the order promised the prosecuting attorney of Portage county to be exceedingly interesting. "Shoemaker," When twenty years later he fell in bright and cheerful courtship, married keeping on about two weeks.

As soon as his wager out with his suitor his pocket to lose it was light he scooping for moths, beetles living thing that can it became so dark it observe, he dropped a bank or a bush; came handiest; and slept until the lights got up and again which he continued go to work. Sunday rest. By twelve however, he was neighbors used to stormy night that he in the house." In at home except Sundays dawned him. by a series of ungainly leaps. If this doesn't start a clammy perspiration upon the regal brow of Truth, nothing will open her pores. GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN has joined, no doubt with a view to lead, the crusade against lawyers. Thus splutters his redundant genius: "Life, property, honor, Electoral College, Congress, finance, railways, legislation; everything is in the hands of lawyers. Two-thirds of all cabinets, conventions, congresses are lawyers. The curse is universal. Hornets, grasshoppers, potato-bugs in every city! Cobra, Spitz, moocasin, boa in Congress! Jackal, hyena, pole-cat in all legislation! Shark, devil-fish and Bradley in umpire Returning Boards. And the greatest of all is Bradley!" The Egg Dance in India. A much more pleasing performance, and one which might, perhaps, better have been mentioned in connection with the exploits of the jugglers, is the "egg dance." This is not, as one might expect from the name given it, a dance with these fragile objects. It is executed in this wise: The dancer, dressed in a corsage and very short skirt, carries a willow wheel of moderate diameter, fastened horizontally upon the top of her head. Around this wheel threads are fastened equally distant from each other, and at the end of each of these threads is a slipnoose, which is kept open by a glass bead. Thus equipped, the young girl comes toward the spectators with a basket full of eggs, which she passes around for inspection, to prove that they are real and not imitations. The music strikes up a jerky monotonous strain, and the dancer begins to whirl around with great rapidity. Then, seizing an egg, she puts it in one of the slipnooses, and, with quick motion, throws it from her in such a way as to draw the knot tight. The swift turning of the dancer produces a centrifugal force which stretches the thread out straight, like a ray shooting from the circumference of the circle. One after another the eggs are thrown out in these slipnooses, until they make a horizontal aureole or halo about the dancer's head. Then the dance becomes still more rapid, so rapid, in fact, that it is difficult to distinguish the features of the girl; the moment is critical; the least false step, the least irregularity in time, and the eggs dash against each other. But how can the dance be stopped? There is but one way—that is to remove the eggs in the way in which they have been put in place. This operation is by far the more delicate of the two. It is necessary that the dancer, by a single motion, exact and unerring, should take hold of the egg, and remove it from the noose. A single false motion of the hand, the least interference with one of the threads, and the general arrangement is suddenly broken, and the whole performance disastrously ended. At last all the eggs are successfully removed; the dancer suddenly stops, and, without seeming in the least dizzied by this dance of twenty-five or thirty minutes, she advances to the spectators with a firm step, and presents them the eggs, which are immediately broken in a flat dish to prove that there is no trick spirit away witnesses, and if necessary, to murder them. The organization was in Ku-Klux form, secret and complete, and generally efficient. This, now forgotten, currency, which was well known half a century since throughout the valley of the Mississippiippi was brought to our attention by the semi-centennial of the Western Reserve College at Hudson, in July last. A man by the name of Carr had sold a drove of hogs to one of Brown's middle-men for counterfeit money. He soon got into trouble, and in defiance of the oaths of the order promised the prosecution attorney of Portage county to become State's evidence. The sheriff, with a troop of mounted men, proceeded to arrest Brown at his house in Boston. In order to protect Carr from the vengeance of his brother financiers he was put to work on the foundation of the college among about twenty other men prepared to defend him. He was never alone day or night until Brown concluded to forfeit his bail and avoid trial. Many of the partners in this institution had a respectable standing in their neighborhoods and men of business. Most of the middle-men were persons of desperate character who carried on the work of stealing horses and other thefts in connection with their financial agencies. They were the terror of Northern Ohio for twenty years, before the law became powerful enough to drive them out. Such things sound strangely in our ears, but there are persons living who remember them very well.—Cleveland Herald. Physical Degeneracy in America. A notion was for some time in vogue that the race had degenerated here. It was a mere notion, having its origin in a prejudiced perversion of isolated facts; in the desire of book-writing travelers to find something strange, and also derogatory, with which to spice their pages; and in a craving, which amounts to a mild insanity among European people, and particularly among all classes of the British nation, to lay hold of some distinctive "American" quality, whether physiological, literary, political, or other, label it, and file it away, and pigeon-hole it for reference by way of differencing "Americans" from themselves. The notion I venture to say was essentially absurd. That a race of men should materially change in physical traits in the course of two centuries under whatever conditions of climate or other external influence, is inconsistent with all that we know upon that subject. The very pyramids protest against it by their pictured records. According to the history of mankind, as it is thus far known to us, such a change could not take place within such a period, unless to external influences of great modifying power there were added such an intermingling of races as has not yet taken place here more than in England itself, although plainly it is to come in future generations. Up to thirty years ago the inter marriage of Yankees—by which name, for lack of another, I designate people of English blood born in this country—with Irish and Germans was so rare as practically, in regard to this question, not to exist; and at that period there was not in England itself a more purely English people than that of New Yorkers while sleeping in Boyne; about five was attacked by a polecat. Edward creature, but he no shot upon any thin hands. The animal he lay on the floor threat by the wrist thought," said Eddie have torn my hand claws. I endeavored round so as to get his neck. And yelled! * * * awful stench he cures!" In this manner "The mails have changed, madam," responded the clerk at the general delivery window of the post-office to an applicant for a letter. "Yes, indeed," said the old lady, placing both hands on the desk, and looking straight into the clerk's eyes. "You are right in saying the males have changed. Why, when I was a girl we didn't hear of half the wickedness that we do now, and its all owing to the males." Then when a woman married we expected to see her settle down and raise a family around, and her husband to go into some kind of business and make a nice support for all of them. But now-a-days half of the married women have to support their worthless husbands and drag out a miserable existence, when they really ought to be proud and happy wives. How often do we see patient, dutiful women, with every wifely instinct and motherly virtue beautifully developed, being larruped by the cruel monster who, once upon a time, had sworn to love and cherish them above all others. Yes, young man, you are right, the males have changed, and, as a friend, I would you don't change, too." Boston Hotel Clerks.—The Chicago Hotel Reporter says: "Boston hotel clerks say to guests when they come down to breakfast in the morning, 'Ah, good-morning, I saw you at the opera, last night; I was in the right-hand proscenium box, you know; had to leave early, for I'd an engagement to supper at the club with Gov. Rice, you know.' That's the kind of men they are!" Well, our hotel clerks are smart. John Bright affirms that, within the lifetime of men still living England has expended ten thousand million dollars for wars "which might, with honor, have been avoided, and in needless or excessive armaments in preparing for war." "Shoemaker and Naturalist." When twenty years old, Edward went to Banff to work at his trade. Three years later he fell in love with a comely, bright and cheerful lass, and after a short courtship, married her, and began housekeeping on about two dollars and a half a week. Poor as they were, they were content and happy. Edward at once began to make collections of the objects gathered in his walks. He had acquired the art of preserving birds as well as insects. Unfortunately he knew almost nothing of books, and was unable to write. He did not possess a single work on natural history, and did not know the names of the birds and animals he caught, and whose habits he was familiar with. All his knowledge had been gathered by himself and was his own. To assist him in procuring specimens of birds and animals, Edward bought an old gun. It was so rickety that he had to tie the barrel to the stock with a piece of thick twine. He carried his powder in a horn, and measured out his charges in the bowl of a tobacco-pipe. His shot was contained in a brown paper bag. A few insect bottles, some boxes for moths and butterflies, and a botanical book for plants, constituted the rest of his equipment. As he did not cease work until nine o'clock at night, nearly all his researches were made after that hour. He had to be back to his work in the morning at six. His wages were so small that he could not venture to abridge his working hours. He never spent a moment idly nor a penny uselessly. As soon as his work was done, he would set out with his supper stowed away in his pocket to lose no time, and so long as it was light he scoured the country, looking for moths, beetles and birds, or any living thing that came in his way. When it became so dark that he could no longer observe, he dropped down by the side of a bank or a bush, or a tree, whichever came handiest, and there he dozed or slept until the light returned. Then he got up and again began his observations, which he continued until it was time to go to work. Sunday was his only day of rest. By twelve o'clock Sunday night, however, he was up and away. His neighbors used to say of him, "It's a stormy night that keeps man Edward in the house." In fact, he never stayed at home except Sundays. Weather never daunted him. When it rained he would Scotching Malaria. It is a fact widely and simply attested that where the powerful and pernicious drug, quinine, and other mineral poisons, administered as remedies for fever and ague and billions remittents, fail to yield more than temporary relief to the sufferer. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters scotches those tremendous epidemics most thoroughly, and by strengthening the system and regulating its functions, protects it against malarial attacks. No resident of a locality where the above maladies prevail, or where they are likely to break out in consequence of the poisoning of the atmosphere by noxious exhalations, should fail to take practical cognizance of the stove important truth, and by a timely use of the Bitters avoid the ravages of maladies so disastrous to the physical constitution. There is not in existence a finer tonic, corrective and defensive cordial. Geo. T. Hanly & Co. The Retail Grocery trade of San Francisco is represented by many large and influential firms, among the most prominent of whom we find Geo. T. Hanly & Co., No. 922 Market street. This firm was established in 1873, and has had a very prosperous career. The store is large and well filled with every variety of goods, all of the choicest kind. Their long experience in the business has made them particularly well fitted for carrying on such an establishment as this, and their success has made their name as familiar as household words, and is synonymous to honesty, fair dealings and gentlemanly treatment to all their customers. In connection with the retail store on Market street they have a branch at the corner of Sixth and Mission streets, which is devoted exclusively to the sale of Tea, Coffee and Chocolate. They have here introduced the novelty of employing young ladies as clerks, which is proving very successful. The facilities for giving their patrons bargains, and the great secret of their prosperity, are due to the system and business principles with which they carry on their trade. Their expenses are very light in proportion to their business, thereby affording them an opportunity of selling their goods at a less price than most other firms, and the cash system which they have introduced has given them a business safety truly enviable. Besides their retail business they are also doing an extensive Jobbing business in Tea, on Front street. Mr. Hanley has been very closely connected with the importing and jobbing of Tea ever since his first arrival upon the coast, and for years previous in Cincinnati. He made several very heavy purchases for Eastern houses, and also a very successful trip to the States for one of our largest Front street firms just prior to his embarking in the business for himself, and perhaps is as well posted in the trade as any one in the city; and although the firm is young in the jobbing and importing business there are but few who have a more extensive trade. They supply not only their portion of the Pacific States and Territories but ship largely East and to the different foreign countries that purchase of our merchants. Another enterprise which this firm has been engaged in. Garland's Progress. The rapidly increasing business of M. H. Garland, and the unprecedented demand for his celebrated Vegetable Cough Drops, has forced him to remove into new and more spacious quarters. His new factory and wholesale and retail depot for his renowned candies is now located at 765 Mission street, in the Hancock building, San Francisco. The new factory is the largest on this coast. With his additional facilities, Mr. Garland is enabled to offer to the trade superior qualities of candies at low cash prices. He has also supplied a want long felt in this city, in fitting up his old stand, at $88 Market street, in first-class style as a ladies' dining, oyster and ice cream saloon, where ladies and gentlemen can enjoy the luxuries of home cooking, as well as all the delicacies of the season, and where families can obtain pure, fresh lee cream at prices which defy competition. In the oyster department he employs one of the best cooks in the city, and is enabled to serve his customers with choice Eastern or California in every style.-S. F. Post.

His objection to these places was the greater number of unpleasant visitors than elsewhere—polecats, weasels, bats, rats and mice, not to speak of hosts of night-wandering insects, mollusks, beetles, slaters, centipedes, and snails. Think of having a polecat or a weasel sniff sniffing at your face while asleep, or two or three big rats tugging at your pockets and attempting to steal away your larder! Boydie church-yard, a most uncanny place after dark, was frequently his lodging-place, greatly to the amazement of his superstitious neighbors. He sometimes had severe encounters with nocturnal roamers. One night, while sleeping in the ruined castle of the Boyeau, about five miles west of Banff, he was attacked by a large and ferocious polecat. Edward could have shot the creature, but he never wasted powder and shot upon any thing he could take with his hands. The animal leaped upon him as he lay on the floor, and was seized by the throat by the watchful naturalist. "I thought," said Edward, "that he would have torn my hands to pieces with his claws. I endeavored to get him turned round, so as to get my hand to the back of his neck." How he screamed and yelled! And then what an awful stench he emitted during his struggles!" After struggling with the brute nearly two hours, Edward bethought him of his chloroform bottle, and, with a dose from that, ended the fight. He was quite exhausted from the long contest, but as he had secured a large and valuable specimen for his collection, he felt repaid for all it had cost him. In this manner Edward passed several business they are also doing an extensive Jobbing business in Tea, on Front street.

In four years he had made a collection of nearly a thousand insects, secured in twenty boxes, which were piled one upon another, face downward, to keep out the dust. On looking at them one day he found that rats or mice had destroyed the whole collection. This was a heavy misfortune for a man in Edward's position. His wife, seeing the empty cases, asked him what he would do. "Well," said he, "it's an awfu' disappointment, but I think the best thing to do will be to set to work to fill them up again." He did so; and in another four years he had as large a collection as the first. By the year 1845 he had preserved nearly two thousand specimens of living creatures found in the neighborhood of Banff. About half the number consisted of quadrupeds, birds, reptiles, fishes, crustacea, starfish, zoophytes, corals, sponge-, and other objects. He had also collected an immense number of plants. Some of the specimens were in bottles, but the greater number were in cases with glass fronts. He could not afford to have the cases made by a joiner; so he made the whole of them himself, with the aid of his shoemaker's knife, a saw and a hammer. There were about three hundred cases in all. An exhibition of this collection at a fair held at Banff yielded him a small sum of money, and encouraged him to try the same experiment at Aberdeen, in the hope that he might be able to give up his trade and devote all his time to natural history. He was doomed to a sad disappointment. Few people went to see the collection, and he was obliged to part with it to defray the debt incurred in moving it to Aberdeen. The sale brought only £20 10s. The collection went into the hands of a private gentleman, who suffered it to go to ruin. Edward went back to Banff disappointed, but neither soured nor disheartened, and resumed his trade and his researches. Mr. S. S. Conant, in Harper's Magazine, L'Argentine; or Silere Thistle Mazurka.
