From the London Telegraph. There is scarcely a single point In common between this last reckless attempt and the mag- nificent success by which Webb acquired his well-earned fame. Here no precautions appear to have been taken, nor were any possible. Eight years ago everything was provided in case of accident. The first attempt was a feat of endurance, the last an exhibition ot fearless folly. To swim across the channel in fine autumn weather requires nothing more than an abnormally fine physique and extraordinary powers of endurance. The tides are known and every curreut is mapped out. When, how- ever, a human being trusts himself to shoot the rapids of Niazara, and proposes to pass throngh the swirling whirlpool, he courts a series of unknown hazards. Memories of death linger amid the rushing waters and the blinding spray. Francis Abbot, the hermit of Ni: a, was drowned while bathing | from Goat Isiand, near the Three Sisters. In 188, at Luna torrent. In: hopin land, a little girl fell into the tly a gentleman plunged in, ‘0 rescue her, but both were swept over At Biddle’s Stairs Sam ch, the daring jumper and diver, lost his life, and, in spite of the dubious story of the drunken Indian, who successfully shot the falls in a canoe, no sane person would venture the essay asecond time. Beyond the prospect of posse himself of the $10,000 subscribed by the railway companies, Webb had nothing to gain by the ill-starred enterprize. His fame was already assured, and his name would have gone down to posterity linked with that of Horatius, who swam the Tiber in full armor, and with that of Leander, who, for Hero's sake, crossed the Hellespont near to what is now Galipoli; not to mention Lord Byron and his friend, Mr. Ekenhead, both of whom accom- plished the two miles’ distance and allowance for current, to please themselves. J. B. John- son, the so-called “hero of London bridge,” was the first to try to swim the channel; but he could not s the water € The American, Capt. Boynton, did sub- sequently complete the task without the aid of at. He accomplished the journey from Cape zto the South Foreland, equipped in his fe-saving dress, on the 29th of May, 1875, two months before Webb performed his world-re- nowned and unprecedented feat. Cavill is ted with having done the same thing two ars later. but to the recently-deceased hero belongs the hongr of having ‘shown him the way ‘The contemporary accounts of Webb's great- est success read like a chapter out of the adven- tures of the “Cid.” Of such stuff were the heroes of antiquity made. His daring. his pa- tience, his indomitable pluck, though not past belief, are beyond praise. Nor did he reach the Freach coast without much suffering and dis- tress. He was accompanied the whole way by a luzger coptaining George Toms. the pilot, the representatives of the press, anda couple of umpires to see fair play, and during part of the journey was convoyed by two row-boats, in one of which sat Surgeon Major Hanbury, of the staff of the Dover garrison. The night, says au eye-witness, was beautifully calm, with a slight haze on the horizon, and the surround- ings were all that could have been desired for the success of the experiment. In the Channel were no jazzed rocks reaching out trom the side of the stream, no treacherous and unknown currents. and, above all, no deadly whirlpool increasing in velocity below the surface. Either Webb's recollection must have played him false in regard to the dangers of the Channel, or he could not have valued his life at a pin’s fee. It is worth while recalling a few of the incidents of his memor- able swim, it only because ot the prospect that some other foolhardy athlete may attempt suc- | cess where he has failed—ignorant of the vast ‘al endurance isks of the wild During his Channel feat Webb was sustained with coffee, brandy, beet teaand ale. He was never for a moment lost sight of by those who accompanied him, and when at one time it seemed as if he were about to faint, a diver plunged into the sea and swam by his side.

The best way to cook them is to Steain them and then drop them in the boiling gravy Just before serving. They are certain to be thoroughly cooked and to be light if steamed for three-quarters of an hour. How to Remove a Ticut Rixg.—A novel method of effecting the removal ofa ring which Bas become constricted around aewollen finger, orin any other similar situation, consists simply fn enveloping the afflicted member, after the manner of a circular bandage, in a length of flat India rubber braid, such as ladies make use of to keep their hats on the top of their heads. This should be accurately applied—beginning, not close to the ring, but at the tip of the finger, and leaving no intervals between the successive turns, so as to exert its elastic force gradually and ently upon the tissues under- Beath. When the binding is completed, the hand should be held aloft in a vertical position, aud in a few minutes the swelling will be per- ceptibly diminished. The braid is then taken of and immediately reapplied in the same manhoer, when, after another five minutes, the fnxer, if azain rapidly uncovered, wili be small enough for the ring to be removed with ease. —_——_——-e-______ : A Norwich bezgar, ly one-armed, ‘was sent to jail, where he developed the missing rm on being taken into the bath-room.

His great task at an end, Webb drank off four glasses of old port wine, went to bed and slept as calmly asa child. It is, indeed, lamentable that such a an should perish in the vain attempt to earn a few thousand dollars, and all for the wretched gratification of a crowd of heartless, gaping sicht-seers. Splendid specimens of physical development like Matthew Webb and Tom Say- ers seem to deserve a better fate than to perish in their prime. Yet society can, apparently, do nothing to help men of this kind against the temptations of the world. Sayers should have lived to old ageon the subscription collected tor him after his victory over Heenan, and Webb might equally have passed a comfortable exist- ence on the proceeds of the material reward of his prowess. Both men, if report speaks truly, wasted their substance. The former died of dissipation, and the latter was reduced to make aholiday show of noble daring degenerated into mere foolhardiness. In this country and in the United States alike the state of the law is in need of amendment in its relation to dan- gerous exhibitions. We ourselves and our kins- men on the other side of the “big water” have no hesitation in punishing would-be suicides; yet there, as well as here, citizens are daily per- mitted to risk life and limb in feats which involve possible self-slaughter, this indeed forming their attraction. The exhibition organizea by the American railway companies has led to what might almost be called at once a suicide and a murder; and only if the sad ending of this great swimmer’s life produces an alteration in the law of both countries, Webb will not have perished in vain. He was a man possessed of natural fac- ulties,which, in the earlier stages ofnations, help toward making them great. Strength, courage, activity, endurance, are attributes of the high- est worth among the qualities of a people. Even in this mild and melancholy age, wien prizes of { life fall chiefly to intellectual achievement, and muscle must give way to mind, England was proud of Matthew Webb, and his mother coun- try y cause his life was sacrificed in a toolish and in- defensible adventure. ee An Attachable Coat-Tail. From the San Francisco Post. A New York tailor named Boody has Just patented an invention that has at once endeared him to the heart of every young man on the glebe. This boon to mankind is no less than a patent attachable coat-tail of the clawhammer species. With this improvement an ordinary Seymour bob-tail coat can be conyerted into a tull-dress affair at a moment's notice. Most young men leave their dress-coats in charge of their father’s brother for safe kee=ing and pro- tection from moths, and even those who donot will appreciate the advantaxe of always having s ball-room fete ready to be coupled on, as were. To newspaper reporters Boody's patent is simply invaluable, as enabling them to attend a fashionable wedding directly after a fire, and to take in a swell ball on the way back from a dog fizht. The patentee is now running a factory on full time to supply the trade with his admirable conception, which he puts up in handsome and convenient boxes at the smail price of 7% cents-each. The social millenium will Indeed have arrived when the young man of the period can start serenely out of an even- ing tully prepared for any emergency, knowing that he has a clean handkerchief in his coat and his tail in his pocket. a flow to Make Sparrow Pic.

THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. SATURDAY. AU APPEARANCES ARE DECEITFUL. A Sad-Eyed New Jersey Nag That Can Let Himself Out on Occasions. From the New York Sun. Anunshaven man in slouch hat and ragged coat, driving an old gray, spavined horse, whose ribs almost protruded from his skin, has been a familiar sight in the roads of Hunterdon county, N. J., during the last week. Last Tuesday he drove into Fiemington, the county seat, and stopped in front of Humphrey’s hotel, where one of the two reins was withdrawn from the rusty fron rings of the old harness and used for a hitching strap. In the antiquated, rickety old vehicle was a ration of grass for the nag. He entered the bar-room. He removed his slouch hat from his tangled hair, and, stagger- ing up to the bar, ordered a glass of gin, with sugar and lemoninit. By this time a crowd had assembled, and one asked what he would take for his horse. “ Eighty dollars.” he replied. One of the crowd offered him fort: ““What,” he said. ‘forty dollars for a horse that can travel a mile in three minutes. Not much.” “Three minutes,” said Johnny Ramsey, a prominent county politician. ‘That horse ean’t travel a mile in ten minutes, and I'll bet on it. “Yes,” said Jacob Vite, another county pol- itician, “Til bet you $20 he can’t travel a mile in th minutes, and I'll go out to the race course and speed your old plug.” “Twenty doliars,” the fellow replied; ‘Il bet #100 he can.” Elisha Opdyke and Jacob Wile and a stranger who happened in the room chipped in with Ramsey and Vite, and’a purse of $100 was quickly made up and deposited in the hotel Keeper's hands. To their surprise, the owner of the old horse quickly covered the money. He then went out of the room to where his horse stood, and from under the grass in the wagon he took out a good set of harness, which he put on the nag. He inquired of the crowd where he could borrow a lighter rig. Ramsey said he had asort of arig which he would loan him. The lighter vehicle was procured, the horse was hitehed to it, and then the crowd started for the race course, which is about a mile out of Flem- ington. ‘The track was in a bad condition. It resembled a ploughed field. This state of things did not discourage the old fellow, for he drove upon the track. and at the word “Go” was off on his race to beat time. Eyewitnesses of the aflair describe the trotting of the old nag as something wonderful. He trotted the mile without a break. Time, 2:52. The old nag had won for his rhaster $100. The politicians were dumbfounded. They say they will never bet against old plugs again. It has been discovered that the stranger who chipped in $20 was a partner of the owner of the horse. After the race at Flem- ington the two men drove to Lebanon, where lives Nell Ramsey, another prominent politician. The merits of the old horse were discussed in the bar-room of John Low’s hotel at Lebanon. The men played the same role at Lebanon that they did at Fl igton. Nell Ramsey was induced to bet #25 that the horse couldn't trot a mile in three minutes. He lost, of course. It is alleged that the two men hail from Trenton. They were in Clinton yesterday, and tried to play the same game, but their fame had preceded them, so no ‘Clintonians were roped in. ee Fruit in Summer. From the British Medical Journal. Lightness is the first essential alike in the food and drink taken in warm weather. There isthen lesa work to be done, less waste of tis- sue, less necd of the pre-eminently muscle-forming and heat-producing substances meat and bread; and fruit, as being both palatable and easily ob- tainable, is much in use. Its advantages are that it provides seasonable change of diet, light and wholesome, if well chosen, and a palatable tonic and stimulant of digestion with aperient properties. There are few who cannot enjoy itin one form oranother. For diabetics, the only least desirable kinds, as certain nuts and almonds, are available, all otherg, as containing sugar, being forbidden. Sufferera from acid dyspepsia must select carefully, and limit their consumption to the least irritating—a few strawberries or a tew grapes. Diarrhoea and dysentery preclude the use of all fruit. On the other hand, for constipated persons it is some- times the only reliable remedy which they can use contmuously with comfort; it Is also of benefit in renal diseases, by its action on the bowels. Atonic persons generally take it well, and feel the better for its digestive property. Those in normal health may eat almost any ripe fruit. The bland varieties are the most wholesome and nutritious—strawberrles, apples, pears, grapes, and gooseberries. The last named. however, with currants and raspberries, are less wholesome than the others. Stone fruits are apt to disagree with the stomach; but the more watery, as peaches and large pluins, are better than the smaller and drier, as apricots and damsona. The pulp of oranges renders them heavy. Among other foreign fruits, bananas are wholesome. Dried fruits. and the skin of fruits In general, are indigest!- ble. Nuts, the edible part of which is really the seed, contain much albumen and some fat in a condensed form, an? are particularly difficult of digestion. Fruit may be taken with a meal or onan empty stomach. In the former case it promotes digestion by Its gently irritating effect onthe mucous membrane ofthe stomach and intestine. Ifan aperient effect be desired it had better be taken in the morning before breakfast or between meals A succulent and pleasantly acid variety is best for both of these pu , While it is also a food. The quantity of it which should be taken depends on the kind. If it belong to the bland nutritious class, a healthy person may now and then partake of it as freely as of any other wholesome food; but he will gain most benefit if he take only a Uttle, and take it regularly. Thesame may be said of the invalid with whom fruit agrees. Cooking removes much of the acidity from crude fruit and renders it lighter as well as more pal- atable. So treated, it is productive of good and no harm; but it is a fundamental principle. that whatever fruit Is eaten uncooked inust be fully ripe, and not overripe. This may sound trite, and, indeed, the principle is commonly admitted; but not, it would seem, by all, for we still find people, and not a few, who’ will themselves deliberately take, and, worse, will give to their children, green gooseberries, green apples, &c., the very hardness of which, apart from their acid pugency, suggest their unfit- ness for digestion. Such people use as food an acid irritant poison, whose necessary action is to cause excessive intestinal secretion, with more or less of inflammation. Hence arises diarrhea. On the other hand, fruit which is overripe, in which fermentation has becun, isa frequent cause of this disorder and equally to be avoided, and perhaps also more difficult to avoid because the insidious beginning of decay 1s not easily recognized. It should never be for- gotten by any who incline to follow the season in their feeding, that the want of such precau- tions as the above may produce that dysinteric form of diarrhwa, “British cholera,” which is occasionally as rapidly fatal as the more dreaded Asiatic type of that disease. ———_—_-e-—_____ Popular Characters Overworked. From the Toronto Gr:p. “My gracious, ole fellow,” said the Slice of Lemon peel to the Oyster, “you look mighty pale.” “Pale,” exclaimed the other, and why wouldn't I?

LIME-KILN, {CLUS DOINGS, Discussion of the Water-M¢ion Quee- ton, From the Detroit Free Press, Shindig Watkins then arose and announced that the insurance on Paradise Hall expired at noon on the morrow, and desired instructions as to its renewal. It had cost the club $38 to carry its policies, and as there had been no fire the money was the same as thrown aw: Waydown Bebee, ,Trustee Pullback, and Pickles Smith favored.a renewal of the policies, while Rev.

A communication from Josepheus Jackson, an honorary member of the club residing in Wash- ington, made inquiries if Brother Gardner had arecipe for telling a ripe watermelon from a green one. Ifso, the Commissioner of Agri- culture wanted if at once, and would send the club enough seed, to raise five acres of Canada thistles. “Yes, I reckon I has a recipe dat nebber fails,” replied the old man. ‘When 1 feels de need of a watermellyon tonic I goes down to de market an’ looks around, In de fust place, pick for a mellyon dat am well built an’ well roofed over.

If there is one season more than another which steals voluptuously upon us like a sweat- box, itis midsummer. Poets have warbled its praises, and fat men have gone out under the china trees and cussed it. Spring is the season of love when a fuller crimson comes upon the robin’s breast, but midsummer Is the season of prickly heat, hives, salt rheum, and mosquitoes, when a fuller crimson comes upon the old man’s nose from dallying with the sherry cobbler, and toying with the rye straw when the intoxicating aliment is exhausted, and the crushed ice and orange peel mingle together in the bottom ot the glass. There is a soft midsummer languor stealing through the marrow of our bones, and a mid- summer antipathy to Texas beef and onions has taken possession of the citadels of our soul, and we capitulate. In the heated term it is ‘Our Kingdom for a Norther!” and when winter sets in we grumble at the high price of wood. coal and kerosene oil. There isn't so much love- making going on in midsummer. The “ Wilt- thou-be-mine?” business ts completely paral- yzed. There is enough wilting. however, of a far more practical character, which is easily de- monstrated by the languid lassitude exhibited by collars, cuffs and shirt fronts. The dog days have now surely come, the dog- glest of the year. But we forget. It is not our intention to rhapsodize during the hot weather, 80 we will generously let up on the reader and give him something that he can read withont blushing, in his shirt-sleeyes. It is wrong make any one blush in hot weather. There is enough heat in the atmosphere without creating any more by artificial means, ‘he man with a yellow umbrella mops his ver- million-tinted tace, and the sweet sixteener with a Japanese parasol murmurs, “0, gracious!” and casts one longing eye at the ice cream ba- zaar and the other on the dry goods clerk lolling in the shade of the awning, who can’t get away from the store until atter 8 o'clock. They are both speculators. She is kpeculating on the chances of roping him into the frozen pudding shop, and he is speculating on the probabilities of getting an advance on his week's wages to meet the contingent expenses of the coming oc- casion. Let us trust that fortune will smile on both of their little love-lit schemes, and with the welcoming shades of evening may two fond hearts rush together like the meeting of the waters, and their soft. sweet nothinys, whis- pered into willing eare, be drowned by the clash of the ice cream spoons. Midsummer is here. ee ry nee ‘The Boitom of the Ocean. Prof. Hulley in the Lutheran Observer. In 1853 Lieut. Brooke obtained mud from the bottom of the north Atlantic, between New- foundland and the Azores, at a depth of more than 10,000 feet, or two miles, by the help of his sounding apparatus. The specimens were sent for examination to Ehrenberg, of Berlin, and Bailey, of West Point, and those able micro- scopists found that this deep-sea mud was almost entirely composed of the skeletons of living organism, the greater proportion of these being Just like globigerinae, already known to occur in chalk. Thus far the work had been carried on simply in the interests of science, but Lieut. Brooke’s method of sounding ac- quired a high commercial value when the enter- prise of laying down the telegraphic cable be- tween Great Britain and the United States was undertaken. For it became a matter of im- mense importance to know: not only the depth of the sea over the whole line along which the cable was to be laid, but the exact nature of the bottom, so as to guard against chances of cutting or fraying the strands of that costly rope. The admiralty con- sequently ordered Capt. Dayman, an old friend and shipmate of mine, to ascertain the depth of the whole line of the cable and to bring back specimens of the bottom. In former days such @ command as this might have sounded very much like one of the impossible things which the young prince in the fairy tales is ordered to do before he can obtain the hand of the princess, However, in the months of June and Ju!y, 1857, my friend performed the task assigned to him with great precision, without, so far as I know, having met with any reward of any kind. The specimens of Atlantic mud which he procured were sent tome to be examined and reported upon. The result of these operations is that we know the contours and nature of the surface-soil coy- ered by the north Atlantic for a distance of 1,700 miles from east to west. as well as we all Know that of any part of the dry land. It is a prodigious plain—one of the widest and most even plains in the world. If the sea were drained off you might drive a wagon all the way from Valentia, on the west coast of Ireland, to Trinity bay in Newfoundland. And, except upon one sharp incline, about two hundred miles from Valentia, Iam not quite sure that it would be even necessary to put the skid on, so gentle are the ascents and descents on that long route. From Vulentia the road would be down hill for about three hundred miles to the point at which the bottom Is now covered by 1,700 fathoms of sea water. Then would come the central plain, more than 1,000 miles wide, the inequalities of the surtace of which would be hardly percepti- ble, though the depth of the water upon it varies from 10,000 to 15,000 feet, anf there are places in which Mount Blane might be sunk withont, showing its peak above water. Beyond this, the ascent on the American side com- mences, and nally leads, for about three hundred miles, to Newfoundland shore. Almost the whole bottom of this central plai (which extends for many hundred miles in a north and south direction) is covered by a fine mud, which, when brought to the surface, dries foto a grayish white friable substance. You can write with this on’a black-board, if you are 8o inclined, and to the eye it is quite like very soft grayish chalk. Examined chemically, it proved to be composed almost wholly of carbo- nate of lime; and if you make a section of it in the same way as that‘ of a plece of chalk was made, and view It with.a microscope, it ts innumerable globigerinae embedded in the granular matrix. Thus the deep sea mud is substantially chalk. ————_-o-—_____ ive Treason oi a I~ lur feature of the state Taw tint children ‘ander 12 cannot be taken into custody by ordinary officers, who can only notify them to appear in court, and their attendance must be compelled, Mf at all, by calling in the ald of a state agent ‘This process is bothersome, and s0 the juvenile thieves ot Westfield have had poet im. munity: but three lads have now been canght in burglaries on several successive nights, and pains will be taken to punish them.

There are few good chances now anywhere in ‘New Engiand to observe the manner in which generations of forest trees succeed one another in our woods. Much of our most valuable tim- ber is now growing upon land which has at some time been cleared, or closely cut over. and this Is the case even in parts which have been settled within the present century. Upon such lands the trees are apt to be of few varieties, and of nearly uniform age. To understand how “the forest primeval” consisted of trees at every stage ot growth, and presented every variety which our climate and our soll would produce, one will need to penetrate far enough Into Its depth to get beyond its ravages ot the axe andof fire. There he will find the hazel and moosewood, mere shrubs in compari- son, growing up under the shade of hem- locks and spruces centuries old, and their branches draped with long gray moss. Ever- green and deciduous trees intermingle in the alternating sunshine and shade. Almost every- where the growth is mixed, whether onthe dry, rocky ri or onthe wet, sponzy soil of the swales. The surface of the ground is etrewn, in some places piled. with the decaylag trunks of Prostrate trees. These have either broken down ‘under their weight and the progress of decay or have been overturned by the winds. This latter fate has been most often experienced where the soil consists of from a few inches to two or three feet of rich vegetable mold spread over a coarse loose gravel so cold and wet that the roots of trees extend widely over it without striking deeply into its bed. When a large hemlock or pine is thus overthrown its roots will lift from this gravelly bottom two or three rods of the rich black soil with which it was coy- ered. There is a bit of ground where birches and willows and maples will colonize at once. On the uplifted soil which gradually sinks down into a knoll that will mark the spot for ages cherry and poplar and sumach thrive. Where the tree fell it carried down all the undergrowth before it, and let in the warm sunbeams where for ages they had not fallen before. In this way the conditions of climate were changed almost as much as were those of soll. Where the seeds of various trees are constantly scattered by the, winds and birds and squirrels it could not wel_ happen that such changes should not be tol lowed by a changed growth of woods, and these Places be occupied by trees best suited to the spot. There {8 still another way in which these changes in forest growth are silently golog on all the time under the operation of natural torces, working in accordance with certain laws. It has often been noted that on our sandy plains, where fires have burned off the growth, and with it have consumed all the vegetable mold mingled with the surtace soil, the first efforts to reclothe these lands with a forest are made by such trees as the pitch pine, which re- quire little water, and will send thelrrootsdown twenty feet or more through the loose gravel, to bring up from that depth the potash and other soluble salts they need. These elements of fertil- ity are slowly returned to the surface soil by the falling leaves of the pines. After some gen- erations of this growth these lands again be- come capable of producing birches and poplars and oaks. This process of recuperation and ren- ovation is familiar to all who have given the slightest attention to our woodlands; and has often been used as evidence of the care which nature takes to fit the earth for the higher types of vegetable as well as of animal life But there are many other changes going on which show as lainly that this fitting of the soil fora more iocurtant growth is not without equal care for such trees as thrive best on a poor and sandy soil. As vegetable mold is slowly formed upon the surface of the plains, so is silicious sand brought up through many Inches depth of peat to adapt the bogs and swamps to a growth that coula: not otherwise take root upon their sur— face. No one who has observed with care the culti- vated lands or even the pastures of New Eng- land can have failed to notice that whenever hemlock trees have decayed upon the ground there the soil would be exceptionally poor. Sometimes, after two or three ploughings of a field, one can trace in the diminished growth of grass or of grain the line along which one of these trees has lain. Its decay added to the soil no enriching for the growth of any culti- vated crop. Where it lay thrive sorrel and coreopsis, which delight in sterile ground. If one would examine the decaying wood of such a tree he would find it gritty ina pulverized form and could detect with the eye grains of sand, which are crystals of silex taken up in solution into the circulation of the ¢rees, and becoming manifest only when reverting to its crystalline form, when the vital forces of veze- tation have ceased to act. All workers of wood are well aware how much the earthy matter of decaying timber dulls the edges of their tools. This is common in a greater or less degree to every variety of growth. Its effects are strongly marked upon the succession of forest growth as upon the crops on cultivated lands. Let a hemlock, spruce or pine be uprooted in our wet, peaty soils, and not only will deciduous ‘trees gain a foothold upon the sand and gravel brought up by its roots, but all along the length ot its de- caying trunk hazel and willow shrubs, and the yellow and white birches will spring up und flourish, taking root in the newly formed soil ot the rapidly wasting eap-wood. Gradually the young trees gain strength to send their roots down either side of the prostrate tree, mostly within the bark, and those piercing the bed of mould and peat bencath take firm root in the hard, rocky subsoil, Years later, when the birches have become large, and the tree on which they grew has wasted completely away, one may see where the roots unite in the trunk, two or three feet above the surface ot the ground, on a spot so wet and of a soil so fine that trees of such a nature as theirs would never have got a planting there had it not been for the motherly care which nature bestows upon the feebler and more delicate of her offspring. The Coachman Episode. ‘From the New York World. The daughter of Surrogate Warren, of Troy, has married her tather’s coachman, but the aftair has not created the same sensation as the similar incident in the Hubbard family, in Con- necticut a few yearsago. Mr. Warren isa sen- sible man who is fond of his daughter. Instead of attitudinizing like the heavy father in a play, and driving his daughter out of doors, he has given his consent to what he saw he could not help, and will try to make his daughter happy. This is a course which wins for Mr. Warren the admiration and the sympathy of the world. It is, of course, a bitter disappointment fur a father to bring his daughter up in wealth and luxury and to look forward to her marrying in society, and then to have her marry a coach- man. But the match may possibly be a good one. The best families ot New York are descended not remotely from ancestors who filled no higher social position. The aristocracy of England dates its origin back to the children of butchers and barbers, in whom lowly birth could not ob- scure eminent abilities. Why may not the troy coachman be as well fitted to rise as they were? Onr railroads are now managed by men who in the early days of railroading collected fares; our express millionaires once ‘held stock” with a pair of reins; many of our great lawyers have swept out the offices in which they studied. The whole history of American progress is the history of men who have risen from poverty to erperhape Mrs. Wel h, nee Warren, will be h erhaps felch, nee ap- pier with a husband who knows what honest work is than ifshe had married a dude. We certainly hope that her husband is worthy of the good lortune which has given him a good wile and an exceptionally wise father-in-law. Come Around Next Year. ‘From the Wall Street News. Two boys met in New street yesterday. Said one: “I have one cent, and if I had four more I could buy an elegant cigar.” Said the other; “I have tour more. Here they are. Buy the cigar, and we'll have a good smoke,” The money was pooled, and the first speaker bought the cigar, and, lighting it, whiffed away with great enjoyment until the weed had been otiseer to saokeaal one “Hold on,” said the second, “1 put in four cents and you only one. You have smoked half of the cigar. That ain’t fair.
