Intelligence Items. Lowell will yield Parnell about $3,000. New York has 255 Protestant Sunday schools. There are 4,000 colored Masous in North Carolina. Of the 2,000 convicts in the Texas penitentiary only five are women. Canada has a Roman Catholic population of 1,846,800, with 1,599 priests. The National Bank of Jefferson, Texas, has paid out for cotton over $1,000,000 in one month. Dr. Schaff says that as a rule the salaries of ministers in Europe are barely sufficient for their living. It cost $1,500 to decorate the suite of rooms at the Continental Philadelphia that were occupied by Gen. Grant and party. Kansas is the principal field for supplies of castor beans, and the crop this year is estimated up to ten million bushels. Congressman Force, owner of the Palace Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., spends $10,000 a year in advertising that really palatial establishment. Rich gold, silver and copper mines have recently been discovered in Maine. There is yet conglation for the Maine Stalwarts. All is not lost. The census supervisors are allotted only $500 each for nine months' full service. The enumerators will serve twenty-four days at four dollars per day. An idle man counted thirty-seven hundred people who entered the Astor House between eleven in the morning and four in the afternoon in a single day. Mexico (Mo.) Herald: In Marion county a gentleman captured a pure white blackbird from a flock of blackbirds that came to his barn to feed a few days since. The prettiest gold piece now circulating in France is the twenty-french piece bearing the head of Naopko; for the year 1805. It looks like the coin of an old Roman emperor. During the first six months of last year the rainfall about London, England, amounted to 17.30 inches, which is greater than that of the corresponding period of any year since 1816. The wheat crop of Oregon is the largest ever produced in the State, and at the present high prices will bring to the people of the State upward of $4, The Nicaraguan Route. The well-known Captain Bedford Pim, late of the Royal Navy, now a member of Parliament, who has been engaged in opening, by his own private efforts, railway transit from the Atlantic to the Pacific across Nicaragua, last night read a paper before the Society of Arts on "Inter-oceanic Canal Routes." He said the Panama route was inadmissible in consequence of the vexations and enduring calma prevailing on the Bay of Panama; that the Tehuantepec route was unfit because there is no safe harbor on the Pacific side, and that he believed the Nicaragua route would be ultimately selected, but he condemned Greytown as a starting point. He said he thought the route from Pim's Bay to Realejo the most desirable one. Captain Bedford Claperton Trevelyan Pim, it may be added, is the conservative member of Parliament for Gravesend, is one of the most extensive travelers of modern times, and has been devoted to canal projects for many years. He made a voyage around the world in the Herald from 1845 to 1851, was engaged in two Arctic expeditions in search of Sir John Franklin, and was the first who actually made in person the Northwest passage from Beijing Strait to Baffin's Bay. He took part in the naval operations of the Crimean war and in that of China, visited the Isthmus of Suez in 1858, and read to the Royal Geographical Society an elaborate paper on the subject. About this time he went to Central America, where he traveled and resided for several years, obtained a grant of land from the Mosquito King and surveyed the canal route now recommended by him, the Atlantic terminus of which was named in his honor. He obtained from the Nicaragua government, many years ago, concessions for a canal and a railway on the above route. In conjunction with the naturalist, Dr. Berthold Boeman, he published "Dottings on the Roadside in Panama, Nicaragua and Mosquitia" (1869), and was the author of another work," The Gate of the Pacific" (1865). Some years ago he was imprisoned and handcuffed in Paris on a trumped-up charge of fraud in connection with bonds issued for his Central American railway scheme. He has sat in Parliament for fifteen years, is now practicing barrister, proprietor of the Navy Journal, a magistrate for Middlesex, and the most constant European advocate for the claims of the Nicaragua route.—N.

The wheat crop of Oregon is the largest ever produced in the State, and at the present high prices will bring to the people of the State upward of $4,000,000 or over $260 for each man, woman and child of the population. The grain traffic on the Baltimore and Ohio road is so great that the present facilities at Baltimore are altogether inadequate, and the managers have given orders for the erection of an elevator with a capacity of 2,500,000 bushels. An enterprising man in Philadelphia hired the La Pierre House, an unoccupied hotel, for one day, in order to let out the front windows to those who wanted to see the Grant procession. He paid $800, and is said to have made a profit of $1,000. The largest synodal body that Christianity can show, is said to be the General Synod of the State Church of Prussia, which represents 16,000,000 Evangelicals. It meets once in six years, the last meeting having recently been held at Berlin. The pension appropriation bill takes over $32,000,000 out of the Treasury. This is an increase of over $3,000,000, and the number of pensioners is increasing instead of diminishing, while petitions for extra pay for those now receiving pensions are pouring into the Senate and House. Courier-Journal Wit. Now the Washington boarding-house keepers are 'happy'. Up in Maine they put it, "Wish you a bloody Christmas." Massachusetts wants to see the Cuban rebellion boil. Ben Butler goes there this winter. "Now for a monument for John Smith."—Hosta Post. Are you fishing also for a corner on headstones? It would really be too great a shock to some people if Congress would promptly pass the regular appropriation bills and go home. It is asserted that the mercury was fifty-eight degrees below zero in Minnesota last Wednesday. Nice country for Southern immigrants. Prof. Proctor says that the world is five hundred million years old. He proves it by rocks and stars, and perhaps, by boarding-house butter. Grant has not positively stated that he would rather be the General of a raging canal than a candidate for the Presidency of a raging republic. There are 450 idiots officially reported in Ohio.

Herald. Curiosities of Human Food. Man has been wonderfully ingenious from his infancy in the concoction of edible varieties. Apart from baked human thighs in Feejee, and boiled fingers in Sumatra, there are certain culinary fashions still extant, which must be marvelously unintelligible to a conventionalized appetite. Not that it appears strange to eat ducks' tongues in China, kangaroo's tails in Australia, or the loose covering of the elk's nose in Brunswick. Not even that it is startling to see an Esquimau eating his daily rations—or a Yakut competing in veracity with a box-constrictor; but who would relish a stew of red ants in Burmah, a half-hatched egg in China, monkey cutlets and parrot pies in Mio Janetro, and bats in Malabar, or polecats and prairie wolves in North America? Yet there can be little doubt that these are unwarrantable prejudices, Dr. Shaw enjoyed Hon; Mr. Darwin had a passion for puma; Dr. Brooke makes allidavit that melted bears' grease is a most refreshing potion. And how can we disbelieve after the testimony of Hippocrates, as to the flavor of boiled dog? If squirrels are edible in the East, and rats in the West Indies—if a sloth be good on the Amazon, and elephants' paws in South Africa, why should we compassionate such races as have little beef or mutton? For we may be quite sure that, as Montesquieu affirms, there are valid reasons quite as unimpeachable for eating giraffe, alpaca, mermaids' tails, bustard and anaconda. A SHREWD REPLY.—Sir Walter Scott says that the alleged origin of the invention of cards produced one of the shrewdest replies he had ever heard given in evidence. It was made by the late Dr. Gregory, at Edinburgh, to a counsel of great eminence at the Scottish bar. The doctor's testimony went to prove the insanity of the party whose mental capacity was the point at issue. On a cross interrogation, he admitted that the person in question played admirably at whistle. "I am no card-player," said the doctor, with great address," but I have read in history that cards were invented for the amusement of an insane king." The consequence of this reply was decisive. Prof. Proctor says that the world is five hundred million years old. He proves it by rooks and stars, and perhaps, by boarding-house butter. Grant has not positively stated that he would rather be the General of a raging canal than a candidate for the Presidency of a raging republic. "There are 450 idiots officially reported in Ohio." And so it seems that there is yet material in the country for several hundred average office-holders. People who happen to get hold of any gold coins should remember that if any of them are only slightly worn, five cents for every grain less than standard weight is the loss they sustain on them. Beer has already risen $1 per cask in Chicago since it was decided to hold the National Republican Convention in that city. Duacon Smith is going to stay in Cincinnati or take a canteen with him. Victor Hugo is very gallant, it is said, and kisses every lady to whom he is introduced. How fortunate for the boys it is that gallantry doesn't require such a practice in this country. A fellow would have to be introduced to a girl every time he met her. The Legislatures of twenty-one States meet this winter. The immense number of jobs which will be put through and crude laws which will be passed is frightful to contemplate. Nevertheless, the public printers are in a good humor over the prospects. "No true lady will bounce out of the room and alarm the door after her when asked to forego her new silk dress for a few days and let her husband settle an 'old cigar bill.'"—Detroit Free Press. And no brave man, simply because he edits a paper, will rush into print with his family troubles. "New Orleans abuses Boston girls for banging their hair. We don't know as it is any worse to bang the hair than not to comb it at all."—Boston Post. Well, nobody forbids your girls to comb their hair, does he? It seems that a girl—and especially a Boston girl—who could learn to bang her hair could, in time, learn to comb it. Angel do you seriously say, doctor," said the learned counsel, "that a person having a superior capacity for a game so difficult, and which requires, in a pre-eminent degree, memory, judgment, and combination, can be at the same time deranged in his understanding?" "I am no card-player," said the doctor, with great address, "but I have read in history that cards were invented for the amusement of an insane king." The consequence of this reply was decisive. STANDARD WEIGHTS.—An exchange says that the standard weights of the United States were made in England and transferred to America about the year 1790. They are exact imitations of the present English avoirdupois and troy weights, and by them every subsequent weight was regulated. Mr. Kramer, the scalemaker, in Philadelphia, is the only man that has ever been intrusted with the government weights, and that at a time when certain discrepancies had found their way into the assaying departments of the California mints. The weight of the gold and silver bullion as weighed at the mines was constantly differing from the weight as found after weighing in the government scales at the mint. The difference in the weight was finally regulated by appointing an expert to make exact duplicates of the standard weights, which are carefully guarded in a strong vault of the Treasury at Washington.—Trade Review. Puss and Feathers.—When Plato was asked to say what was man, he replied earlly, "An animal without any feathers." He could not have said this of the Parisian lady of fashion, who is feathery all over just now. The fashions are a saturnalia of plumes. They nod by three on Macounise shapes; bend under the burden of insects poised above; nestle in pompons; wave in cavalier flourish; bristle up on the wing; form a gorgeous clump in as flat a piece of sunshine as ever swept a forest glade, or, again, proudly disdaining the hues of glorious things, contentedly curl about in the sober drab hues natural to the birds they are pulled from. Route. Bain Bedford Navy, now a man who has been on the Atlantic coast since the Society's Nicaragua, last time in the Pacific side, the Nicaragua canal sequence of the route to Panama enjoys entire immunity from pulmonary consumption. Three millions of people die annually of consumption. Medical resources seem to be baffled by this malady. Dr. Talbot Jones confesses in the New York Medical Journal, that climate is the physician's only dependence for the cure of his consumptive patient. The article expresses the following opinions: 1. No zone enjoys entire immunity from pulmonary consumption. 2. The popular belief that phthisis is common in cold climates is fallacious, and the idea, now so prevalent, that phthisis is rare in warm climates is as untrue as it is dangerous. 3. The disease causes a large proportion of deaths on the seashore, the mortality diminishing with elevation up to a certain point. 4. Altitude is inimical to the development of consumption, owing chiefly to the greater purity of the atmosphere in elevated situations, its freedom from organic matter, and its richness in ozone. 5. Moisture arising from a clay soil or due to evaporation is one of the most influential factors in its production. 6. Dampness from the atmosphere, from whatever cause, or in any altitude, predisposes to the development of the disease, and is hurtful to those already attacked. 7. Dryness is a quality of the atmosphere of decided value. 8. The most unfavorable climate possible for a consumptive is one of uniform high temperature and of high dew point (warm and moist). 9. The effects due to change in the atmosphere are by no means so pernicious as are generally supposed, and on this subject present views require modification. Dr. Jones commends the climate of Minnesota, and thinks those predisposed to consumption, or laboring under its first stages, would very likely be benefited or cured by a residence there. Between the pleasant rolling prairie, the wooded lake region, and the dense pine forests of the northern section of the State, they can choose what seems most agreeable and best adapted to them, while the dry, bracing atmosphere will enable them to live much of their time out of doors without fear of taking cold. He insists, however, on the inutility of sending patients thither who are in the advanced stages of the disease. Sticking to the Celtic. As we lingered over our dessert, my good priest expatiated upon the beau- Consumption Cured. An old physician, retired from practice, having had placed in his hands by an East India missionary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy for the speedy and permanent cure for Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma, and all Throat and Lung Affects, also a positive and radical care for General Debility and all Nervous Complaints, after having tested its wonderful curative powers in thousands of cases, but felt it his duty to make it known to his suffering fellows. Activated by this motive and a desire to relieve human suffering, I will send free of charge to all who desire it, this recipe, in German, French, or English, with full directions for preparing and using.

For coated tongue, bad breath, sick headache, or any disturbance arising from dyspepsia or torpid liver, it is without a peer. Its action on disease is entirely different from any medicine ever introduced; quieting pains almost instantly. The hue and cry raised against it by patent medicine men, who have forseen in its advent the destruction of their nefarious business, and the thousands of unsolicited testimonials flowing in from all parts of the New World, is a sure indication of its great merits.

He insists, however, on the inutility of sending patients thither who are in the advanced stages of the disease. Sticking to the Celtic. As we lingered over our dessert, my good priest expatiated upon the beauties of the Irish language, which is certainly the best preserved, as it is the purest, of all the Celtic dialects. It contains written remaias transmitted from so remote an antiquity that it has become nearly unintelligible. Manuscripts so old that they have become ancient in the fourth and fifth centuries, and required a glossary, which glossary has become nearly as obsolete as the work it was designed to explain, formed part of the possessions of this language. As an evidence of the love of the peasantry of Connaught for their own tongue, he told the story of a priest who was called upon to administer the last rites to an old woman. As he entered she spoke to him in English; he conversed with her a few moments, whereupon she began her confession in Irish. To the priest this was an unknown tongue, and he told her so. "If you can't speak to me in my own language," she said, "what brought you here?" He replied: "You understand English, wherein the rites can be well administered as in Irish." The dying woman raised herself from her pallet of straw, and angrily cried: "And do you think I am going to say my last words to the great God in the language of the Nassenach?" with which she dismissed him.—J. L. Cloud, in Harper's Magazine. Mrs. Langtry's Fascinations. Let it suffice to affirm concerning Mrs. Langtry that those who know her least declare unanimously that her beauty is almost excelled by her geniality. It seems but yesterday when, as a bride, she appeared in the park and set tongues a wagging. Since then she has played a foremost part in the comedy of life, and this gracefully and well. You are held spell-bound by her sweetness before you have exchanged hardly a dozen words with her. Every well bred woman is, of course, free from gene, but this one is gifted with a charm of manner, simple and sympathetic as that wherewith mentally we endow Mignon, and she talks at once so prettily and so musically that you are insanely impressed with the idea of her absolute sincerity. The bright, ringing treble, the happy halcyon view of life characteristic of girlhood, are still hers. Above all, she is kindness itself incarnate. At Glasgow, where she was the cynosure, she astonished the canny Scotch by her generous impartiality.

In England, bicycling clubs are numbered by hundreds, and the regular riders by tens of thousands. There the new motor is not only an instrument of exercise and amusement, but of daily business use, being employed by carriers, messengers of many sorts, physicians, and by many mercantile people who have discovered, in this machine, the way to live in the country and labor in the city without the loss of time and expenditure of money that had before made that course impossible. We find in England many amateurs who can make a mile, under favorable circumstances, in a little over three minutes, and many professionals who can make it in less than three minutes. There is in London a whole literature of bicycling; and its praises are written and sung. Doubtless the bicycling fever will increase with us henceforth. New York has had a Chess Congress.
