Sir John OLubbock shows that a bee's wings vibrate at the rate of 150 beats to the second. This . calcula­ tion can hardly have taken into ac­ count a presidential bee in a politi­ cian’s hat. James Payn says one funeral breeds a dozen England on account o f “ the senseless custom o f Btanding bare­ headed by the open grave.” This is one count in the kinship across the Atlantic, one o f our own inherited barbarisms. Mrs Jackson's memoirs o f her hue- band have brought out a western opinion that “ Stonewall” was a genius, and so possessed o f those idiosyncrasies which led the poet to observe the nearrelationship between “ great wits” and “ madmen.” President Jarge Montt o f Chill is a peculiarly interesting personage just at presennt. He hasa broad forehead, a fine commanding eye, the well-de­ veloped aose which marks character, a well trimmed black beard and raaatache, and an erect, active figure. It will by a great pleasure to the friends of John G« Whittier to hear that he is better and slowly conva­ lescing from a second attack o f the grip. Last winter Mr. Whittier had a narrow escape from this dangerous disease, which enfeebled hie walk and general strength. Anthony J. Draxel, the Philadel­ phia banker, Jhashad a spider named after him. This is fame of a vicari­ ous sort, but it is somewhat more original than that gained by having oneVname perpetuated in a chrysan­ themum, a notion tbit has been very popular during the last few years.

I was frequently feverish,'my lips were perched, ray breath hot. My appetite was poor,, and I test in flesh daily. Sometimes my cheeks would be very red, and again I was aspale as death, I tried to sleep regularly, but could not, and when I did steep I was troubled with horrible dreams. In this way^ several months passed by', until finally I . become so weak that I was compelled to. take- to my bed. “ I cannot, and do not believe the' greatest writer in the world could de­ scribe what I suffered;' For eight months I was unable to help myself in the least, and my mother, sister and brother were completely worn out takingcare o fme. 1bad no less than •even different physicians, who came tosee me separately, and were, also often in consultation togetb *r.

O f conrse. in addi­ tion to all themedicineso f thedoctors, I took cough syrups and codliver oils, which I hoped would cure me, or at least bring me,relief. But, alas none o f them even ceased my sufiering. “ One day, Ah! how well I remem* it, my mother and sister came intomy room with team rolling down their cheeks. Between their sobs they told me that I had but a short time to live, and that the beat physician* had said so, and that they haddone all in their power. I knew this, and was willing to die, but the thought came to me that I would like to see our town once more, and perhaps look in the faces o f some o f my friends. My mother and sister look'' amaped, and the physicians even more so. “ It was simply suicide,” they said, “ and you certainly will never return to the house alive.” But with the weakness and wiifulness o f a dying person, I insisted, and, as the day waspleasant, they finally yielded, and a carriage was secured in which they fitted up a bed of pillows. I was carried out, placed in the' ''carriage, and slowly driven about the CourtHouseSquare. People looked on in wonder, and I was taken home more dead thanalive. My relatives all stood about my bed expectingto seemediaatany moment, white friends, who had seen medriven out, come to call at the house. “ One o f the friends who called had in her hand a trial bottle of mediciue, which had been given her.
