eocher-Tilton trial has fairly begun,
and the public will, in- the course of time,‘
be’madc to know how much truth the re-
spective combatants in this struggle have
indulged in.
Moultou has been on
the
stand, but. nothing new was drawn from
him. The public know already all that he
gave the court.
The only importance that
can be attached to his testimony is that it is
testimony in a court, under legal forms,
with the solemnities of oath, and with the
penalties attached to perjury. Before,
what he said was merely the talk of an in:
dividual—now it is the sol

Another instance, well known to the

It has been terribly cold in New York
for a week, that is, cold for New York.
The thermometer has touched as low a
point as 12° below zero, which is .very
rare here. Cold in New York means more
than it does with you. You have very few
people in your midst who are without the
warmfi-‘andiif you have: such, they can be,
found and supplied. But in this great
Babeljhere are'thousands and tens of then-
sands of unfortunate wretches who have not
the wherewith tobuy fuel at all, and who
get whatlittle is necessary to cook their
wretched food by1 picking up bits of ocul
and wood where that can find it. It is too
precious to be wasted in heat. Then as
they have no clothing,-and as their wretch-
ed rooms are as open as all out-doors, their
condition may be imagined when the ther-
mometer touches the zero point. Men and
women have been found frozen on the
streets, and several cases have been report-
ed to the authorities of families found
frozen to death in their horrible apologies
for beds. At points on the Hudson, above
New York, the thermometer has gone as
low as 20° below.‘ Ships arriving hay;
come in bad plight. The crews of a num-
ber have been nearly disabled by cold.
- - A snnuwn DODGE.
For a number of years A. T. Stew art, the
merchant prince, has had in course of erec-
tion a’nzenormous building on 4th avenue,
corner of 34th, street which he gave out, or
permitted it to be iven out, was intended
as a Home for Vorkiug Women. The
whole city threw up its but at this munifi-
cent gift to Humanity, and from Maine to
Texas the trumpet of the philanthropist
was sounded. The building progressed very
slowly, and. is now far from finished. Now
the stOry is‘current that it was never intend-
ed for a, Working Women’s Home at all,
but that ill: to‘be furnished for a hotel—a
mammoth and Brohindignagian Hotel—
one llllll will eclipse all those father down
town. If this be true Stewart is a dodger
of the shrewdest kind. That building has
given him advertising to a full half of its
cost, and‘l guess if all that has been said of
it—all ofwhich drew trade to his great
stores—was counted at ordinary charges it
would cover its entire cost. The old gen-
tleman is very comfortably fixed in this
world. He is worth not less than $5,000,
000 now, his real estate increases in value
25 per cent. per auuum, and the profits of -
his business are too enormous to be calcu-
lated. He will have enough for his declin-
in g years. ' ,
POLITICAL.
Let no Republican be deceived by the
recent manifestations in this city on the
Louisiana question. The Times went off
half-cocked against the President, but it
took the back track immediately when it
got its second breath and had received some
facts. The big meeting of the 111b, over
which so much fuss has been made, was en-
gineered entirely by Democrats, who at
enough sore-headed a'nd impracticable c-

Struggle for Wealth.
No one can settle down in a European
city or village for a month, and observe the
laboring classes, without noticing a great
difference between their aspirations, ambi—
tion and habits and those of corresponding
classes in this country. He may see great
poverty in a continental town, and men and
Women laboring sever‘cl y, and faring mean-
ly, and a hopeless gap existing between
classes; he may see the poor virtually the
slaves of the rich; but he will witness a
measure of contentment and a daily partici-
pation in humble pleasures to which his
eyes have been strangers at home. There is
a sad side to this pleasant picture. Much
of this apparent contentment and enjoy-
ment undoubtedly come from the hopeless-
ness of the struggle for anything better.

PUBLIC BALLS.
The Infant Asylum ball, as it is called, i
for the benefit of one of the finest charities
in the city, opens the gay season as usual
this week. It is the occasion for di'splaying
more elegant toilets than are seen at any
other publieball, excepting those given by
clubs like the Union League receptions,
which have much of the selectness of private
parties, with a splendor of entertainment
not osssiblciu private houses. The twen-
tiet, ‘uuual Charity Ball comes off on the
4th of February, at the Academy of Music,
which hasjust now room enough for the
gay and mixed Assembly. This favorite 1

people, and all grades of New York society t

Cur-lou- Legend-
” The Festival of the Asses, which has been
for long ages observed in Verona, grew out
ofithe following circumstances:
According to the legend, the young ass on
which our Saviour entered Jerusalem was
set at liberty immediately after, and, profit.
ing by his opportunity, took to traveling in
Palestine, from whence he made the tour of
Egypt, visiting every place of interest or
'note, and nobly appears to have caught
him I Crossing the Mediterranean dry-shod,
without the aid of any ship or bark whatso-
ever, he Went to Cyprus, Rhodes, Candia,
Malta, and Sicily; he then walked up the
Adriatic to Venice, which cit by the way,
was not then in existence ; bu he seems not
to have liked the little i d, for soOn he
passed on to Verona, where he fixed his res-
idence, and where he died at a. very ripe
age. The pious and hospitable Veronese
placed his remains in a reliqnary of the
same shape, and there kept it in the church
dedicated to “Saint Mary of the Organs ;"
every year this interesting and valuable
donkey was carried in solemn procession
through the town of Verona ; at the present
date, the Festival of the Asses has become a
mere name. -
The Genoese were fortunate enough to
obtain the tail of the above-mentioned ass,
and they kept it with great piety in the
Church . of Saint Dominick, which stood
where the Theatre Carlo Felice was after-
ward built.
In the city of Constance, on the lake of
the same name, among the relics may be
seen the spider swallowed by Saint Conrad,
when taking the wine at mass,—the spider
seems to have made good his claim to mum-
mificatiou by making his exit from the thigh
of the saint, without having done any harm
during his residence within 1
0 Two lambs belonging to St. Francis of
Assisi distinguished themselves immensely
by pious acts;one of them went early to
wake a lady whom he afterward conducted
to mass, and the other lamb attended mass
every day, remaining on his knees during
the entire service I
In the curious legend of Saint Julinn_en-
countering a deer in a wood, there is a trace
of the Eastern belief in transmigration.
The saint went hunting deer in a. forest,
when suddenly the animal he was following
stood at bay and spoke thus: “Do not kill
me, for, in so doing, thou wouldst kill thine
ancestors.”
Saint Roch,or Roque, is always portrayed
with a dog in close company, to commemo-
rate the story, that, being struck down by
the Plague when far from all human aid in
a wood, he was discovered by this dog, who
brought him food every day till he was en-
tirely restored to health.
The crab of Saint Francis Xavier has
been rendered more notorious by some
curious old frescoes in Sienna, than by the
printed histories which relate that the saint,
being desirous to calm a sudden squall,
reached his hand out beyond the bulwark
of the ship, intending to show the crucifix
in his hand to the waves, but his hold re-
laxed and the crucifix fell into the sen,
whereupon, a “saintly crab," as the legend
calls him, hastened alter the vessel, politely
offering the recovered crucifix to Saint
Francis, and the fresco shows this courtly
crustacean holding up the recovered treas-
ure in his claw.
The Cock of Saint Peter is said to have
been carried into Spain by the Apostle
. James ; feathers were sold at great prices to
the pilgrims who visited Compostella. The
poet Southey gives the story with some
unimportant variations in his humorous
“Pilgrimage to Compostella.” The name of
that city is said to be merely a corrupted
pronunciation of “Sauctus Jacobus Aposto-
lus.”——“E’lch£ngs ;" Sm'bner’s for February.

There was an Irish gentleman on Cou-
ductor Amos Herkius’ train up from New
York, recently, who showed that his race
had not lost their ability to commit “bulls."
When the etjduetor reached him he said:
“Well, begob, but I guess I’ve made a bit
of a mistake. I wanted to go to Essthump-
ton, Massachusetts, and I have bought a
ticket for Easthampton Connecticut."
“Why didn’t you buy the right ticket 1’”
said the condttctor.
“Well, I saw the two of them, but the one
to Easthampton, Connecticut, was the
cheapest, and so I bought that one.”
The fare from New York to Eastham ton,
Conn., is $3.20, and from New Yor to
Ensthampton, Mass, is SAM—Palladium.

An adroit thief who abstracted an osten-
tatiously displayed check for a thousand
dollars from the gifts at a Chicago wedding
the other day, only to find that the old
man’s balance in the bank was $4.50, thinks
there is no chance for honest industry in
that city—Boston Commercial Bulletin.

Paris has had its first bal masque of the
season, and it was as naughty as usual.
One costume, worn by an inventive genius,
consisted of a square box, which extended
from his throat nearly to his knees, his legs
and arms being clothed in their every-day
garb. At the back of this box was a door
with this inscription : “Do not open.” Of
course everybody who saw him hastened to
open the door, and as within it there was
nothing at all. so far as clothes were con-
cerned, the etl'ect can better be imagined
than described. or course his career was a
brief one.

WARNING 'ro Youxo Max—A rccently
made benedict writes the following concern-
ing his young wife’s habits: “If there was
a bedroom a mile long and her entire ward-
robe could be packed in u bandbox, still
you'd find portions of that wardrobe scat-
tered along the whole mile of a dressmg-
rooni. She's a nice thing to look at when
put together, but this wonderful creature is
-volved from a chaos interminable of plus,
ihhous, rags, powder, thread, brushes,
otnbs, and laces. If there were seven
thousand drawers in your room, and you
asked but for one to be kept sacred and in-
violate for your own private use, that par-
ticular one w0uld be full of hair-pins, rib-
bons and soiled cuffs. Some provision,
some protection in this matter, should be in-
serted in the marriage service.”
