The Report of Progress Upon the New Bridge. Col. P. C. Hains has reported to the chief of engineers that the laying of the west abutment of the Eastern branch bridge, which was com- menced in October, was continued during No- vember. Three of the 112-foot spans have been erected, the floor-beams placed in posi- tion, and the riveting completed. The earth embankment made but slow progress during November. The weather was not favorable to rapid progress and the haul is becoming longer and heavier. The work on cofferdam A dur- ing November was directed almost entirely to driving the squared piles, which had just been placed in position at the beginning of the month. The want of proper facilities has un- @oubtedly been the cause of a considerable part | — in “The Quick or the Dea of this delay. It is proposed during December tocomplete the concrete foundations of the abutment, and possibly to lay a portion of the abutment proper. to continue the erection of 112-foot spans in order. excavate the mate- rial from the interior of cofferdam A, to begin the construction of cofferdam B, and to con- tinue the formation of the earth embankment at the east approac! IT MAKES A "FERENCE. Representative Mason’s Funny Experi- ence with a Capitol Bootblack. An amusing incident w was related this after- noon by Representative Mason, of Ilinois. In @ddition to the privileges of free baths and free berbers, members may have their shoes blacked by colored attaches of the House who are paid salaries for their services. Mr. Ma- son’s shoes needed polishing this morning, so | ated himseld in the bootblack’s chair and desired the young man to commence operations He Did Run Away from Chester with | Speculations as to the Policy of the Another Overcoat.

From the Saturday Reviow. After all the monstrous deal of talk over the new American novel, “The Quick or the Dead,” un insular reader is apt to be disappointed by the book. At last it has been published (cost you 6d.) by the Messrs. Routledge, and is now within the reach of the hnmblest purse and the least-experienced curiosity. And, after all, it is only the old. old passionate “business,” which any one can study for himself in Mi: Broughton’s early novels. Perhaps ‘The Quick or the Dead” is more like the parodies than the originals of these romances, but the arms, the shoulders, the lips, the ses, the strain- ing, clinging embraces: the wild, weird, tear- fraught eyes; the romping. and the rest of it are after the ancient pattern. Barbara Pomfret was the widow of Valentin Pomfret, a widow but recently bereaved. She had an elastic night-cool cheek. Mr. Pomfret had been accustomed to tell her that her curled | lips were a cup, and her breath wine, atid that they made him drunk, drunk. She was eternally ‘turing, dashing ‘herself about, giggling \ysterical ir, and striking attitudes, like a queen ina Greek play. over fer marriage bed. She sometimes drank three. cups of tea, and ate two partridges, together with numberless bis- cuits, for sup) She met her husband's cou- sin, Jock Dame. and nestled in his arms ina storm, and he told her that she was a great, golden, uncanny thing. Style appears to have run in this gentleman's family, as wicket-keep- ing does in others, because the late Mr. Pom- fret’s remarks, as reported, were in the hall on a wet day with Jock, and, as Ss the piper said, “it was not in nature there should not be kissing.” Kissing there was. It was an eager kiss; it was light as flower leaves. fine as fire. Her ‘stormy bosom tossed some little dia- mond pins she wore into iridescent sparkles. She then took his face into both hands, and held it near her own, and remarked that there was sn open grave between them, which says little for American cemeteries, When Mrs. Pomfret came to reflect on her conduct, she says she wasawanton. She did penance by sitting up all night with the thermometer at zero. Perhaps we have forgotten to mention that she had rathe arms, a padding step. and that she smelt like a sponge, “that exquisitely fresh fragrance.” She wore a dense. yet filmy gown, and a delicate foot ina web-like stock- | ing and riotous ses of copper-colored hair. Perhaps it is one uous to add marks of quo- tation. The style betravs itself. The erpenomr oF Barbara and how she sent her dead husband's cousin away and called him back again ul the number and variety of their ki nd how Barbara repented and jilted Jock, absolutely for the last time, are They are all perfectly familiar in character and manner most ordinary student, and it is hard to Sipieta why they have attracted so much notice in America, In one respect the volume deserves its popularity. Not even Miss Brad- don or Ouida has described more dresses, some with woof of fire and web of smoke, some of SS colored silk, and so forth. —_Per- aps it was on account of her varied costume that Barba some eastern houri, languid in rich embroi eries among many cushions, and the next fol- lowed a modern Atalanta through the brown vistas of her femiliar woods.” On the who! itseemsa pity that the widow Pomfret di: not marry Mr. Dering.

ILLUSTRATING THE VEXATIOUS QUESTION OF com- BINING COURTESY WITH CONVENIENCE. From the New York Sun. Two incidents illustrating the extremes of street car courtesy, related by a gentleman who witnessed them, are worthy of recording. An elderly man, plainly dressed, sat in an uptown street car, and as the car slowly filled and ladies were left standing in the aisles he was the first one to arise an} pein his seat at the ladies’ service. At the 14th street crossing the usual exodus of shoppers emptied the car and he sat down only to rise again with quict chiv- alry before the 23d street crossing emptied the car, and to continue standing with a brief re- spite until the end of his journey above the | was reached. As he mounted the steps of ‘is residente he fell and was carried into the house dead.

Never too Well Known in Trade. Dry-Goods Chronicle, Many merchants think that their names are so well known that they do nut need to do any advertising. They, however, forget that every year brings into trade a new generation of dealers and closes out a certain percentage of the older ones. They also forget how easily it is for one to drop from the cajendar of time or to pass out of recollection unless the cobwebs - memory’s chain are constantly brushed by ing one’s name before his friends, the paul - The fact of letting the public know t you are still in trade brings mony a grist to your mill that otherwise would probably stop somewhere else. Men in trade are never too well known to leave their business out of the columns of the newspaper. The business man who says he ‘never advertises” must take down his sign, stop sending out circulars and di patching salesmen to sell his wares, for all this is advertising. ———— ree It Stuck to Him. THE GENERAL'S FINST EXPERIENCE WITH AN IN- SINUATING AND DECEIVING BEVERAGE, From Time. Gen. P. Langly, a well-known farmer living near Frankfort, Ky., was invited to attend a| banquet given by the governor to the members of the legislature. The old fellow was very much flattered by the invitation. It was the first great attention ever bestowed upon him, for although he held, with a grip of pride, the title of general, his military services had been confined to the collection of mules for the confederate army. He consulted several | friends and was told that .it would be a dis- grace to appear at the banquet in other than | the conventional regimentals of a great social occasion, namely, a full dress suit of broad- You don’t mean one of these skeercrow lookin’ coats with the sides ail chawed off, do you?” the old general asked. “Yes, a regular swallow-ta “I don’t like it, but I reckox: ‘Jl have to get me one Having no ready money, he mortgaged a fine horse, went to town and ordered a dress suit. At the banquet he was delighted to see that every one else was dressed in e similar manner, and #0 much at ease did he feel that he pro- ceeded at once to make himseli/ at home. He had never tasted champagne before, and was much surprised at the mildness of the insinu- ating beverage. He had drunk at least a quart of wine when he called a waiter. “Say, haven't you got something to drink if a ‘Oh, yas, sah; got champagne, plenty o’ 7 “I mean havn't you got some licker.

Why do suit while qoing such work?” “To show what a blamed fool I am.

From the National Review. The favorite problem of thinkers and teach- ers, since thought began, has been to find some | engine of education which should reach the | character as effectually as the ordinary means of training touch the understanding; and in the opinion of many, not men alone, but nations, | music was su mengine. “It is music,” said the Spartans, “which Mlistinguishes the bri | man from the coward ‘A man’s music is the source of his cow It was their music which enabled Leonidas and his 300 to conquer at Thermopylae. It was music which taught the Spartan youths how to dic in the wrestling ring or on the field of battle. Th claims are au- jdacious surely. Yet, when wo consider how | the rhythmical tread of the brave man dit- | fers from the agitated shamble of the coward, how music is the art of human joy, and how joy and repose of mind are the. main ele- ments of manly fortitude, we shall at any rate | admit that there is a strong aflinity somewhere; | our only difficulty will be to acknowledge that | music, deliberately applied, coud ever be the direct cause of these reputed results, To achieve the end desired Spartan boys passed their youth in | ‘ing tunes, hymns and | songs—this was their sole mental culture. They were taught to dance and keep step to the measure of the songs as they sang them. And, grown tolanhood. now perfect warriors, marched into battle with smiling faces, crowned | with flowers, calm, joyful and serene, and, ee songs, moved steadily thus into the thickest of the fight, undisturbed and irre- sistible. The band that leads our armies to the field of battle nowadays is a scant survival of Spartan practice; yet even in this music by proxy there are many elements of incitement to courage. ze, _———----0ee- Women and Their Feathered Victims. It was hoped some time ago that the fashion of wearing the dead bodies of birds as trim- mings for bonnets and hats was going out. Such a hope, apparently, is doomed to disap- pointment. Perhaps the day may come when people who have a little regard for such help- less creatures as birds will give them up to their fate. It really seems to be of no use to try to protect them. The loafer from the east end of London goes forth with his cages and his lime and catches them. He, however, mostly retains the male. The other bird mur- derer also goes forth on his crue! errand, and, by preference, catches and retains the female. He takes her in the nesting season, because the feathers are soft and beautiful then. What matters it to him that his victim is often the mother of a nestful of helpless young, and that they are left in the nest to die of starva- tion; to die while ey crying out hour after hour for e mother | that never comes? The mother birds ate killed and the young left to die of starvation, because cer- tain women insist that it shall bego. Yet how gentle, and sympathetic and tender these very women can nd to be, bgow a suite their convenience? How correct and nice is their panty everything that relates ‘fo pt man- ners!
