Intelligence Items. The first steel pen was made in 1830. Kerosene was first used for lighting purposes in 1826. Examination shows the Agricultural Department cost $554,000 to the Government last year. During the year 1879 twenty minor planets were discovered, and their number is now 211. A hundred million acres of land grants to railroads have lapsed by the non-completion of the roads. The little State of Rhode Island wants to stop briney at elections. The artisanal statement is made that $125,000 was paid for three offices. The Brizilian coffee plantations, from which most of our Java and Mocha comes, are reported to be in doubtful condition for a good yield this year. The first telegraph instrument was successfully operated by S. F. B. Morse, the inventor, in 1835, though its utility was not demonstrated to the world until 1844. The Roman Catholic Church has in this country no less than 697 seminaries, colleges, and academies besides 2,246 parochial schools. Its charitable institutions number 373. There are two hundred and eleven women students at University College, London. A few classes are open only to women, and a few only to men; the rest are attended only by male and female students together. The Prince of Wales finding nine o'clock dinners untimely—so far at least as to interfere with theater-going—has declared that he will henceforth dine at seven, and at seven the fashionable dinner hour will henceforth be. Princess Emelie, aged fourteen, the eldest daughter of the Comte and Comtesse de Paris, is already an artist. She is own grand-daughter to the late Duchess d'Orleans, one of the most distinguished women of her time. The pressure of the atmosphere upon every square foot of the earth amounts to two thousand one hundred and sixty pounds. An ordinary sized man, supposing his surface to be fourteen square feet, sustains the enormous pressure of thirty thousand two hundred and forty pounds. While their countrymen are starving in Ireland the Irish societies of New York have determined to have a parade and a good time next St. Patrick's English War Correspondents. In the January Nineteenth Century Mr. Archibald Forbes discusses the question that has lately been raised, by the imprudence of the English Army authorities, of the presence of war correspondents at the front, during military operations. In the course of the article he defends the usefulness of his profession most eloquently, saying: The advantages of the presence of correspondents with armies in the field are, to my thinking, multitudinous. If it were merely to gratify a nation's curiosity, one might refrain from pleading. There is a great deal too much irrelevant curiosity about, for which there can be no sympathy. But to know how our arms are faring in war is no mere irrelevant curiosity. Great heaven! is it unreasonable to require that we should learn from impartial and unbiased lips how goeth the day with our brothers, our heart's blood, the fathers of our children? Is it in the cold official words alone that we are to be told how our countrymen, our dear ones, toil and thole, vindicate Britain's manhood, and joyously expend their lives for Queen and fatherland? Are our gallant ones to be denied the noble recompense of knowing that a record of their steadfastness, their unwurmuring fortitude, their flashes of buoyant heroism, their gallant manhood, their blithesome cheeriness, go home to kindle and console the anxious hearts by the quiet firesides? Is this craft of ours, not less noble than that of the clergyman himself, not less patriotic than that of him who gladly dies for his country, not less tender than that of the poet, in that our theme throbs and glows, and dares and dies under our very hand, not less reciprocative to the beating heart of a nation than is the devotion of a sister of mercy in the field-hospital, to be stamped but on the pretext of a narrow utilitarianism that is as fictitious as it is short-sighted? But let me betake myself to more prosaic reasoning in favor of the contention that war correspondence is not baneful but beneficial. If the authorities of a State owning an army in the field are honest, and mean honestly by the nation, the observation of impartial spectators of military events ought to be the reverse of distasteful. If affairs are progressing well, the correspondents are eager to accentuate the prosperity; if there is an element of hollowness in the good fortune, if luck rather than skill has stood our friend, if it be may be that, since a departure significant importance so, how has it cooled few times, the scientific service have lecture hall of the situation to listen to correspondents, or nationalities of the foreign armies? Cost of Poetry The question concerning the great has been receivedention of late, no offerally ascribed and diplomatates; wait for more assurance accepting tributed to the many. But it may nance to convince people of Europe ingly weary of upon them by the maintained for serving peace. Amount of taxation on present system peace may be given annual cost of principal Europe Hungary Belgium Germany Great Holland Norway Russia Servia land and Turkey enrolled in their annual cost of the cost of living in is about $780.00. This is a vast only a portion of 3,400,000 drawn from during the best live in illiterate vice. In the war they would be general welfare hands and brains are a charge using their time getting the art less fit to make life. It is clear of this system. The pressure of the atmosphere upon every square foot of the earth amounts to two thousand one hundred and sixty pounds. An ordinary sized man, supposing his surface to be fourteen square feet, sustains the enormous pressure of thirty thousand two hundred and forty pounds. While their countrymen are starving in Ireland the Irish societies of New York have determined to have a parade and a good time next St. Patrick's Day. Their reception on Broadway is likely to be pretty blue. The gallant Sixty-ninth decline to take part in such a mockery.—[N. Y. Herald] The reported school population of Kansas is 311,316; the enrollment in the public schools during the past year was 208,409, and the total attendance was 123,996. There were 6,707 teachers employed. The school revenues amounted to $1,887,563.22, and the expenditures to $1,690,794.30. The enlarged Astor Library building will be an imposing structure. Through the liberality of John Jacob Astor the building will be made one third larger than it is at present, holding 350,000 volumes instead of 200,000. The whole front will be 200 feet, while the depth is 120 feet. The Astors have given in all over $1,000,000 to this institution. When any man gives Detroit—but no matter.—[Detroit Free Press] Nearly 300,000,000 postal cards were used in the United States last year. They are made at Holyoke, Mass., by a private concern, under the general supervision of a Government officer. The work is nearly all done by machinery, even to putting them up in packages of twenty-five. The use of postal cards is said to have driven many makers of writing paper and envelopes out of business. Wise Words. Men resemble the gods in nothing so much as in doing good to their fellow creatures.—[Cicero. Oh, how much more doth beauty beauteous seem by that sweet ornament which truth doth give!—[Shakspeare. Beauty hath no luster save where it gleameth through the crystal web that purity's fine fingers weave for it—[Maturin. The perception of the beautiful is gradual, and not a lightning revelation; it requires not only time, but some study.—[Ruffini. When once infidelity can persuade men that they shall die like beasts, they will soon be brought to live like beasts also.—[South. Avarice is the most opposite of all characters to that of God Almighty, whose alone it is to give and not receive.—[Shenstone. That is true beauty which has not only a substance, but a spirit; a beauty that we must intimately know, justly to appreciate.—[Colton. Every good picture is the best of religion that is as fictious as it is short-sighted? But let me betake myself to more prosaic reasoning in favor of the contention that war correspondence is not baneful but beneficial. If the authorities of a State own an army in the field are honest, and mean honestly by the nation, the observation of impartial spectators of military events ought to be the reverse of distasteful. If affairs are progressing well, the correspondents are eager to accentuate the prosperity; if there is an element of hollowness in the good fortune, if luck rather than skill has stood our friend, if it be apparent that success would have been doubtful but for the incapacity of the enemy, it surely advantages the commonwealth, the advent of the Millennium being uncertain, that such matters should be frankly, but not rancorous set forth. To elect to live in what is called a fool's paradise is worse than folly; it is imbecility. And if failure unhappily occurs, it cannot be hurtful that the springs and the circumstances of the failure should be candidly set forth with firm finger on the errors with glow of warm commendation for the brighter features. The Russians are wise in their generation. At Plevna, in July, 1877, they sustained a terrible reverse. The generalship was contemptible, the fighting virtue nobly conspicuous. It fell to the present writer to record that event in its sadness alike and its unavailing heroism. The record neither spared blame nor stained praise. Its author did his work in the full conviction that his candor would cost him his permission to view the succeeding episodes of the campaign But the Russian military authorities recognizing the solid virtue of truthfulness, accepted his narrative of the battle, and authorized its publication in their home newspapers, with their imprimatur on it as an accurate record of a miserable failure relieved by gallant courage. Independent war correspondence has become a necessity to the contentment of the nation. It placates the just uneasiness that is occasioned by meager, unexhaustive and not always wholly candid communications from official sources. These are the spoonmeat of a nation in its intellectual babyhood; and if the nation is so supine as to tolerate that for the future they are to be its main papulum, and that independent correspondence is to be throttled, it may lay its account with pitiful degeneracy from adult intellectual robustness into limp, sycophantic credulity, feebly dashed with impotent, querulous suspiciousness tempered by moody indifference. If affairs are going seriously wrong, the nation, whose interests are surely of importance than the prestige of an ephemeral satrap, or the fortunes of the Ministry of the day, have a right to know the worst, honestly and fully told. Not for the mere gratification of quidaune curiosity; but that it may, if need there should seem, take its fortunes into its own hands, and urge full-throated, on its servants—not its masters—the authorities of the hour, that their care be not wholly for their own petty prospects, but for the broad national weal. But that the Times had an outspoken representative in the Crimean war war the cruelly needless morbidity that is as fictious as it is short-sighted?

But that the Times had an outspoken representative in the Crimean war war the cruelly needless morbidity that is as fictious as it is short-sighted? Sentiment and Sense. It is better to need relief than to want heart to give it. The secret of fashion is to surprise and never to disappoint. Truth is the foundation of all knowledge, and the cement of all societies. He that buys what he does not want, will soon want what he cannot buy. True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and choice. If rare merit be the rarest of all rare things, it ought to pass through some sort of probation. In all the guilty train of human vices there is no crime of deeper dye than that of ingratitude. The fire-fly only shines when on the wing. So it is with the mind; when once we rest we darken. As the pearl ripens in the obscurity of the shell, so ripens in the tomb all the fame that is truly precious. Every man endeavors with his utmost care to hide his poverty from others, as his idleness from himself. Pursue what you know to be attainable; make truth your object, and your studies will make you a wise man. Whoever is honorable and candid, honest and courteous, is a true gentleman, whether learned or unlearned, rich or poor. We hear within us seeds of greatness; but suffer them to spring up, and they overshadow both our sense and our happiness. If affairs are going seriously wrong, the nation, whose interests are surely of more importance than the prestige of an ephemeral satrap, or the fortunes of the Ministry of the day, have a right to know the worst, honestly and fully told. Not for the mere gratification of quidamne curiosity; but that it may, if need there should seem, take its fortunes into its own hands, and urge full-throated, on its servants—not its masters—the authorities of the hour, that their care be not wholly for their own petty prospects, but for the broad national weal. But that the Times had an outspoken representative in the Crimean war, the cruelly needless mortality would have been indefinitely multiplied. When the strain of that struggle had relaxed, who among all that shared its vicissitudes deserved better of his country than William Howard Russell, in that his pen, vivid as truthful, stimulated successful efforts to rescue the army from that direst of all maladies, red tape in a state of collapse? The cause of military science is benefited by the presence in the field of intelligent and impartial correspondents. While the soldiers are fighting they are watching. Theirs it is to note not alone that here the attack hangs, that there it marches with bounding swiftness, but the circumstances, the differences in the methods, the distinctions in the character of the preparations, that bring about the discrepancy. Theirs it is, standing aloof as they do from professional jealousies and professional prejudices, free from the traditions which so tend to narrow the field of observation, to suggest reforms in transport, in medical appliances, in formations, in methods of effective command. With their all but universal share of acquaintance with the armies of foreign nations, correspondents bring to bear on such matters a breadth of varied experience, the expressed outcome of which cannot always be wholly valueless. But this acquaintance of theirs with foreign armies on campaign cannot be expected to be further extended. When our authorities have proclaimed the virtual exclusion of correspondents from their camps, the foreigner at war will be hard to convince that it can be for his good that England should see how his soldiers fight, and should investigate his military system under the strain of war, through the eyes and by the brains of her war correspondents. It may be that, in a purely military sense, such a deprivation will be of insignificant importance. But if this be so, how has it come about that, not a few times, the scientific elite of our military service have crowded into the lecture hall of the United Service Institution to listen to lectures from war correspondents, on the abstruse technicalities of the strategy and tactics of foreign armies? Cost of Peace in Europe. The question of a general disarmament of the great Powers of Europe has been receiving considerable attention of late, mainly in consequence of the rumor that before his recent attack of illness Prince Bismarck expressed himself as strongly in favor of the scheme. It is never safe to put touch trust in the declarations unofficially ascribed to great statesmen and diplomates, and it will be well to wait for more satisfactory evidence be fore accepting as true the views attributed to the Prime Minister of Germany. But it needs no official assurance to convince thinking men that the people of Europe are growing exceedingly weary of the burden imposed upon them by the colossal armaments maintained for the purpose of preserving peace. Some idea of the amount of taxation made necessary by the present system of keeping the peace may be gathered from an examination of the numerical strength and annual cost of the standing armies of the principal European nations. Austria Hungary, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Italy, Holland, Norway, Portugal, Boumania, Russia, Servia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Turkey have 3,400,000 men enrolled in their regular armies, at an annual cost of $850,000,000; adding the cost of their navies, the total annual cost of living in a state of armed peace is about $780,000,000. This is a vast amount, but it covers only a portion of the actual cost. The 3,400,000 men under arms are withdrawn from the ranks of the producers during the best years of their lives to live in idleness that is near akin to vice. In the walks of peaceful industry they would be contributors to the general welfare through the works of their hands and brains; in the army they are a charge upon the community during their time of service, and by for getting the arts of industry, become less fit to make their own way in after life. It is claimed by the apologists of this system that the discipline under the red clover cures cancer. Salt Rheum, and all blood diseases. To the Editor of the Tribune: I notice in your paper—Sunday, December 31—a correspondent ("M.G." asks in behalf but mainly if there is any cure known for the terrible disease, cancer, that is prevailing to a far greater extent than many are aware. I am anxious to impart anything valuable I can to the world on this subject, and will state, if you please, in a few words, my own experience. About twelve years ago, a cancer appeared on my left shoulder, near the collar bone. I went before the Circle in this city, and sought in Eastern cities the best medical advice. The decision was in all cases," Have it taken out, either with a knife or drawn by plaster, or you will surely die with it." I became satisfied that those who have them taken out die sooner than if let alone. After my return home and deciding to let it alone, an old man, Daniel Radd, of Wheaton, said to me that tea made from the heads of red clover, and crank, strong, would cure me—at least would prevent it from ever troubling me. I did so, and very soon the pain and inflammation were all gone. I am as confident that I can cure cancer in the stomach as upon the surface; I have had cases of that kind. Never have a cancer removed, either by plaster or killer; it will surely return again; in no case rub or scratch a cancer. Chicago, September 1st, 1879. Those who have seen my principal circular, please note carefully my advice about diet—especially in reference to eating pork. My advice is not to eat pork in any form, no tomatoes, avoid buckwheat, eat salt sparingly, use very little vinegar, not much coffee, and no tobacco. Be very careful not to overheat the blood, especially in hot weather. Eat nourishing food with any and all good fruits; also wear the wet compris over the part affected. By the use of red clover, and with following these simple rules of diet, I have cured many cases of cancer, also salt rheum and erysipelas. I am confident the disease is in the blood, and can as effectually be cured when it is internal as when it is external. Of this I can bring forward witnesses, and will gladly import to any one all the information in my power, and no fee is required. The Hon. Samuel Hale J. R. Bensley, and Attorney Charles Keed know me very well, and I cannot not will induce me as a truthful person. If addressed by letter, please inclose stamp; or I can be found at Watson's Map store 64 Lake street, Chicago. Most cases coming to me are those given up as hopeless, by physicians. Some of them I have cured, and have their names if I have the first treatment, and the constitution is not ruined by previous treatment. I fully believe I can save many nuns in every hundred. Of course it is necessary order to realize the greatest benefit from the clover; to observe my simple rules of living. I had 15 men pleking the clover this year from the 7th to the 28th of June, and secured many tons in perfect order. My son, W.C. Needham, of San Jose, Cal., has plenty of this same stock of clover, and is sole agent for the Pacific Coast. This clover can not be bought at the drug stores; as it is not furnished to the trade.W.C. Needham is furnishing the clover to This is a vast amount, but it covers only a portion of the actual cost. The 3,400,000 men under arms are withdrawn from the ranks of the producers during the best years of their lives to live in idleness that is near akin to vice. In the walks of peaceful industry they would be contributors to the general welfare through the works of their hands and brains; in the army they are a charge upon the community during their time of service, and by for getting the arts of industry, become less fit to make their own way in after life. It is claimed by the apologists of this system that the discipline undergone in the army has good effect on the men, making them more careful and methodical in their habits gas workers and more loyal and law abiding as citizens. This is an assertion equally hard to prove or disprove. If it be true, the question still remains whether this vaunted discipline does not cost more than it is worth. Does it pay to maintain 3,400,000 men in idleness, at an annual cost of nearly $800,000,000, for the doubtful benefit of army discipline? If this were the only consideration the armies of Europe would be disbanded in a week; indeed, they never would have been formed at all. The preservation of peace is the object sought to be achieved by this vast array of military force. Each nation acts upon the theory that unless it keeps a certain percentage of its able bodied male citizens strutting around in peculiar clothes, with guns in their hands, its lands will be devastated and its people despoiled and destroyed by its peace-loving neighbors. If the peace were actually preserved in Europe there would be less justification for the growing opposition to the costly and oppressive system of armament now in vogue there. But experience has shown that the end aimed at has not been accomplished by the means employed. Since the Crimean war five great conflicts have taken place between nations that for years had been armed to the teeth for the express purpose of maintaining peace with each other. In 1859 the struggle between Italy and Austria took place with France as the helper of the former. In 1864 an Austro-Prussian army invaded Denmark, and after a brief war took possession of Schleswig-Holstein. The Austro-Prussian war followed in 1866, and the France-German war in 1870. The long-threatened struggle between Russia and Turkey left bloody stain on the peace of Europe in 1878. In this list we have not included the wars waged between contending factions in Spain or by English troops in Asia and Africa. Neither have we laid any stress upon the wars threatened at various times between neighboring nations armed for the preservation of peace. The outlook now is far from bright, so far as the preservation of peace is concerned. The gun-makers of Europe are suspiciously busy; the highest inventive talent of each nation is engaging in dividing engines of destruction; torpedoes are more thought of than looms, and Krupp guns than seeders or reaping machines. England has a costly and uncertain war with Afghanistan on hand; Russia is said to be fortifying her western and southern boundaries against German invasion. For working rebellious ores is meeting that success which its merits deserve. Most cases coming to me are those given up as hopeless, by physicians. Some of them I have cured, and have their names if I have the first treatment, and the constitution is not ruined by previous treatment. I fully believe I can save ninety-nine in every hundred. Of course it is necessary to order to realize the greatest benefit from the clover, to observe my simple rules of living. I shall pickenick the clover year from the 7th to the 28th of June, and secured many jobs in perfect order. My son, W.C. Needham, of San Jose, Calif., has plenty of this same stock of clover, and is sole agent for the Pacific Coast. This clover cannot be bought at the drug stores, as it is not furnished to the trade. W.C. Needham is furnishing the clover to several persons in San Jose and other places, some of whom have cancers and have been greatly benefited from using the clover, and some have been unfitly curved. A few have volunteered their names as references. By permission I refer to Capt. David H. Smalltown Winchester Ave., of this city. He had cancer of the stomach, and pronounced by several physicians to be near his end, and beyond all hope of cure. This was about October last. He sought me out and obtained clover. He is now a well-known man. He would gladly import all information he has power to any one, it a stamp is sent on will receive personal calls at his house in D. Needham.

The duration of domestic quiet in Russia, Spain, Italy and Germany is constantly threatened by revolutionists who find raady sympathy among the tax-ridden, underpaid, underpaid masses upon whose shoulders a large share of the burden of maintaining the costly peace armies and navies rest.

CHINAMEN IN A SUNDAY-SCHOOL.—In the Sunday school of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, in Clinton street, Cincinnati, there are about twenty-five Chinamen, each of whom is provided with a teacher. At the recent Christmas festival of the school they gave their teachers the Lord's prayer printed in the Chinese tongue and neatly framed, and in every Chinese laundry in the city the prayer may now be found on the wall. The Chinamen say they repeat it every night. The owner of one of the laundries has been trying to induce his customers to call for their clothes on Saturday night in tead of Sunday morning, but he has had some difficulty in doing so. Nearly all the laundries have adopted the plan of closing on Sunday noon in order to attend afternoon service.—Hanaya. SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE THE LEADING NEWSPAPER OF THE PACIFIC COAST.
