THE WINTER THE MOST DISAGREEABLID KNOWN FOR YEARS, Winter lingers in the lap of spring on the other side of the water as well as bere. American travellers who left home last iutumn to come to Europe in search of pleasant weather and to have a charming time yenerally, have been in most instances very grievously disappointed. So many cireum- stances have not for many a day united to make miserable the American sojourner in Exrops. London has been favored with the moot disagreeable winter known for years. ihere have not been half a dozen tolerable days during the entire month of March, and the buds and grass of spring seem yeta long way olf. Many Americans went to winter resorts in the high ranges of Switzerland, hoping to find steady, dry, cold weather. Quite a colony assembled at Davos-Platz for this purpose, but it rained unprecedentedly and incessantly and the reputation of Davos- Platz for steady, diy cold weather has been utterly ruined forever. All the American colonists took fli¢ht and went down to the tiviera and intv Spain and Southern Italy. But it snowed at Rome as it never snowed be- fore and froze in Spain, while in the Riviera the earthquake occurred. Now, although an earthquake is not in the line of bad weather, it certainly disturbs au atmosphere of peace and serenity, andis considered as being a much worse calamity than ordinary meteor- ological irregularities. ‘The Riviere were al- most depopulated ef tourists by the earth- quake, a uext winter we may hear of Morocco being chosen as, the Old World's favorite winter resort. There is positively no chance of a cold day in Tangiers, and as yet the earthquakes of Italy and Spain have never crossed the Mediterranean to the other side. Even Paris has been made desolate by the cold weather. Berlin is at this moment covered with snow. From all the hibernating American contingeat, which now begins to come this way for the London season is heard the same sad complaint. The fiction of ‘‘a delightful winter in Europe,” “has been dis- turbed, if not wholly dissipated. Dr. Clinton Wagner, of New York, is one of the Americans who has been trying to find a pleasant winter resort in Europe, and he writes as follows toa friend here, under the date of the 16th of March, from Hyeres, France: ‘‘We left Monte Carlo last week; not that we were tired of that lovely and most lively little place, but some infernal idiot in Vienna began to predict more earthquake. My wife was already somewhat unnerved by the previous quakes, and so I thought it bet- ter to leave there; but for my part 1 would rather have Monte Carlo with a quake a day than this nasty, dreary place. We are stop- ping here until after the equinox. In fact, it is raining so hard and so continuously that we cannot get away. Our experiences in search of weather have been rather discour- aging. We came tothe Riviera for a quiet time in the sunshine, and struck ice, snow, cyclone and earthquakes. I think that if we went to the infernal regions expecting to find dry, warm weather we should probably en- counter wind and rain, the eternal fire gone out, the lake of brimstone frozen over and the devil would probably tell us that the weather was exceptional,” ae Sa calli irenmsremonnie A Proper Investigation. (St. John Sun, ) An investigation is taking place into the conduct of government employes at Charlotte- town at the late elections. If it is true as was stated after the contest, that some civil servants and other employes took an active part in the campaign, and by intimidation and promises to their fellow-workmen influenced them to vote against the government, there is only one course to pursue in their case. <A civil servant has a right to vote or not as he pleases, and to vote for whom he chooses, but he has no right to use his position to influence voters against the government of the day. If an official accepts the word of Mr. Davies Mr. Emerson or Mr. Ellis that a change of government is impending, and that it will be protitable for him to enter into active cam- paign service against the government, and having accepted its acts accordingly, he must louk to the gentlemen who bribed or frighten- ed him, to compensate for the trouble which such action brings upon him. That the gov- ernment did not coerce or intimidate the elec- to:s in the civil service is quite clear from the returns of the election inthe districts where those votes were cast. It is the duty of the administration now to see that undue in- fluence cannot be exercised with impunity by others. rn ee The Margin of Profits. From the fullest investigation which I have been able to make, I have been more and more convinced that ten per cent is the maxi- mum margin of profit on all productions in this country and that even a less ortion of the product of a normal year is all that can be set aside for the maintenance or ificrease of capital; conversely, that more than ninety per cent. of each year’s product is consumed by those who are engaged in its production, as working people in the sense in which that term is commonly used. Of the ten per cent, or less which is or may be saved and added to a capital; a very large share will become the property of these who are themselves working people in the strictest sense—another large share will be saved by persons of moderate means, while the share of the rich will be but the lesser part of the whole sum cf profits. This view is sustained by the very small margin of profit which now suffices to draw capital into any and all the principal arts which can be analyzed.—Edward Atkinson, in the April Century. Out of House and Home. A Dublin despatch says that a number of tenants on Shirley's estate at Carrick Mac- Ross were evicted recently. The evictions were attended with stirring scenes. Police, 150 in number, were met by a crowd of peasants, with bands of music, and headed by priests. Little opposition was met with until the police arrived at the cottages. These they found barricaded, and while they were removing obstructions bviling water was ured upon them from above. In several oo instances old people and children were through the windows. Evictions on the Marquis of Lansdowne’s cstate in Queen's county, ate causing great excitement. The Marquis has refused to make reductions in his rents, and his agent is forcing evictions by wholesale. Bought in Plymouth Church. Now BEECHER SECURED THE FREEDOM OF A SLAVE. Staunton Virginian: It may not be out of place, in connection with the history of the late Henry Ward Beecher, to mention an alfecting incident in his life which may not have faded from the reinembrance ot some of our ‘elder citizens. In '860 or 1861 a beautiful xctoroon girl, raised and owned by a promin- ent citizen of this country, Mr. Churchman, attempted to make her escape north. She was arrested aud brought back. Her master then determined ‘vo sell her, and found a ready purchaser in another citizen, Mr. Fred Scheifer. Shortiy after this the last owner was impressed with the belief that the yirl intended to make another effort to go north the first opportunity that presented. lo meet the emergency and save trouble, o/r. Scheifer proposed to Sarah to go north and raise enough money from the Abolitionists to purchase herself. ‘This proposition she eagerly accepted, and being furnished with mewns by Mrs. Scheffer to pay her fare, she started. A few days after her arrival in New York she was taken to Mr. Beecher, and on the follow- ing Sabbath morning was escorted to his pul- pit in Brooklyn. She was a woman of com- manding presence, rounded features anid winning face, and long jet black hair, and of course, under the circumstances, attracted most eager attention and interest from the large and wealthy congregation assembled, She was requested to loosen her hair, .nd as she did so it fell in glistening waves over her shoulders and below her waist. Robed in spotless white, her face crimsoned and form heaving under the excitement of the occasion, she stood in that august presence a very Venus in form and feature. For a moment Mr. LB.echer remained by her side without uttering a word, until the audience was wrought oS “eS -«£ high pitch of curiosity and excitement. And then in his inipressive way he related her story and her mission. Before he concluded his pathetic recital, the vast audience was a sea of commotion. Tears ran down cheeks unvsed to the melting mood, eager curiesity pervaded the whole congregation, and as the pastor announced that he wanted $2,000 for the girl before him to redeem her promise to pay for her freedom cost jewelery and trinkets and rotes “nd _ specie piled in in such rapid succession that in less time than it takes to write this down, enough and much more was contributed than was necessary to meet the call that had been made, What became of Sarah after this re- markable introduction to the Plymouth congregation and the sensational! incidents con- nected with it we have not learned. But the incident itself illustrated the broad humanity of the great preacher and the tender symyathy he felt for the humble and oppressed. >a How Horses are Spoiled. When we have succeeded in inspiring the horse with entire confidence in himself and his master also, there is but little likelihood, unless he is a very nervous or a very perverse horse, that he will become troublesome through any vicious act, or want of honesty. ‘‘ Balk- ing,” that one vice that pretty nearly takes a!) the value out of some horses, is undoubted- ly always, or very nearly always, chargeable to indiscreet management on the part of those who have had the breaking—training---and afier management at work. Thus, if a horse is overloaded while vet young, siopsio rest without being.told to do so, and finding the rest agreeable, and the starting —being weary —disagreeable, itis not to be wondered at that he forms the habit of stopping, and \thenceforward becomes a ‘* balker.” : when this first inclination to stop and hesitate is observed the temptation be taken away by getting on to an easier piece of road, lighten. ing the load or giving the horse rest, and feed If needed, afterward avoiding a similar occa- sion for stoppiug, the danger of having a con- firmed balky horse may be averted. But when, under these circumstances, the horse is hit with a whip, and sharply reprimanded, then look outtor a retaliatory efort. The horse assumes that you are his enemy, and from that momeat he p!aces himself ia an an- tagonistic position, louking upon his master as an enemy. The question is often asked whether a con- firmed balker can be cured. This admits cf a double answer—yes and no. If the horse is in good hands, managed by a person who has firmness and judgment, he can sometimes be cured by driving a stake and hitching hin at the spot where he stops, until he is glad to move along to where his rations are. Horses have been cured by, as the saying is, “taking them at their word,” and if they want to back, then keep them backing, giving the animal to understand that that is just what you want him todo, You can in half an hour or anhour convince him that backing isa very much harder motion than going forward, (jeorge A Royal Present. From a private letter received from Vienna, the London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian learns that a magni- cent dinner service of the Dresden bright yellow ware, only used for royal preseuts is being made there by the order of the Em- peror William for the Queen. Each plate will have tive medallions, having on them either allegorical pictures recalling memor- able incidents in the Victorian era or por- traits of the celebrities of the Queen’s reign. There are to be in all 288 large and 120 small plates, and 72 dishes of all sizes, besides tureens, sauce boats and fruit dishes. The centrepiece, for flowers and fruit, will be surmounted by a statuette of the Queen, and have madallion portraits in relief —white on gold—of members of the Royal Family of England. _-———~-—---2 4p oe - - BaRTHOLDI!'s statue of ‘liberty enlightening the world will be a reminder of personal liberty for ages to come, On just as sure a foundation has Dr. Pierce’s ** Golden Medical Discovery” been placed, and it will stand through the cycles of time as agmonument to the physical emancipation of thousands, who by its use have been relieved from consump- tion, consumptive night-sweats, bronchitis, coughs, spitting of blood, weak lungs, and other throat and lung affections. f aw Signet There is a ‘* Home for Intemperate Wo- men” in Boston, which has 41 inmates.
