The important features in the business
world last week were unexpectedly latge im-
ports‘of gold, decidedly better reports of
railrdad earnings, a marked improvement in
the prospect for the next wheat crop, and
some increased activity in the cotton, grain,
pork and petroleum markets. The- money
market worked without difficulty thorough—
out the v'eck, allhdugh the amount of gold
drawn out of the city was larger than had
been expected. The advance of Governmnt
bonds to the highest prices yet reached reflec-
ted the prevailing expectation of low rates of
interest in the money market for some time
to come—N. Y. Ilia-um, April‘ll.

A Presentation.
Packard‘s “College Tell-Tale," contains a
long report of a party recently given by our
old friend “Charley" Bartram, in honor of
the twenty-first anniversary of his son, 0. B.
Bartram, at Greenpoint, N. Y. The parlors
were filled with guests, mostly young peo
ple. Mr. Bartram made an appropriate
opening address, presenting his son with a
copy of Burns’ poems, passages of which be
repeated and commended to his son’s con-
sideration. M. Packard, of Business Col-
lege fume, followed in a very pleasing ad-
dress, presenting young Burtram with a gold
watch in behalf of the father. and a chain in
behalf of the mother, the gifts having been

Prof. Packard of Packard's Business
(Hinge, of which young Bartram was a
graduate made a neat presentation speech in
behalf of the parents, as follows:
MY FRIEND :
You have come to a point in life to which
all boys and young men look forward, not

sometimes impatience. It seems a little
strange to those who have passed this point,
and especially to such of us as have reached
the divide, and are going downthe westward
slope, that any one should be impatient for
passage of time; and yet, so far as it can be
understood, we understand it, for we have
felt it. It is but the natural yearning which
every boy has‘for. the privilege of being and
being considered a man, with a man’s pre—
rogatives, a man’s responsibilities, and a
man’s opportunities. If I were to convince
you that in the not distant future you will
view these things far differently, it might
dampen the enthusiasm of this moment
without an adequate return, and so I will
say nothing on this point. Yesterday you
were, in the eye of the law, an infant, in—
capable of action on your own behalf, and
not amenable for breaches of civil contract ;
to-day, you jare a man, panoplied with
power to “sue and be sued”, responsible for
your own acts, and without the benefit of
the "baby” plea. I might ask you how you
like it, and what you propose to do about it;
but you couldn’t answer me, for you don’t
know. In ten or twenty years from now, the
question would be pertinent.
I am invited, with others of your friends,
to meet you here this evening in honor or
your'coming of age. It was proper that I
should be invited, and proper that I should
come; for I am one, of your old friends. I
have known you more or leSs intimately for
the last ten years, and for a part of this time
you were under my daily supervision. I-
have seen you at your work, at your study,
and at your play. I have watched the un—
folding of your mind, and have noted its
achievements and its tendencies. I have had
more than a common interest in you, and am
able to speak with positive conviction of your
qualities of heart and brain. I believe you
to be grounded in integrity. I know you
be intelligent and capable; and I can think
of no reason why you should not tonight as-
sert your manhood. .
I am requested, on behalf of your friends,
to present you a gold watch. I do this with
the greatest pleasure, because, in the first
place, I think a watch is {1 good thing to
have, and especially a gold watch ; and next
I like to be associated in your mind with the
gift, at such little expense to myself. I
want you always to remember that I gave
you this watch, whoever may have paid for
it; and all I ask, in return, is that whenever
you look at it, you shall think of me.
nothing to the purpose that nobody gave me
a watch even a silver one, when I became of
age. You are not to blame for that ; and, in
fact,I don’t blame anybody. I only speak of
it as a curious fact, for I was also a good boy.
I am afraid my friends had not the discern-'
ment that yours seem to have. '
I hope you will think a good deal of this
watch for I am told that it is a genuine
article—no “oroide” about it. Idon’t know
what it cost, and I don’t care; and I hope
you may feel the same. At any rate, I hope
uncle to have it valued. Keep it in. yom'own
In the expressive language of some
twister, “First, pocket your watch; then
watch your pocket”,
There is a good deal about a watch that
don’t appear on its face, nor even on its
hands. It is, in the first place, a kind of
conscience—that is, it is a constant monitor.
It not only marks the time, but impresses its
value. It teaches us that seconds, in even
measure, make minutes; minutes, hours;
hours, days—that one second does not begin
until the other ends, and that hours and days
we fed, and do not crowd upon, each other,
A good watch is an even going thing; is
never in a hurry, never behind nor ahead of
time, but always on the tick. It never puts
in a big lick of work one day, in order to
"play off,” and have a good time the next.
Its work seems to be laid out evenly, and to
be done promptly without any fuss or bother.
And it is hardly worth while to dispute with
a watch—if it is a good one, like this—for
you will generally gel the worst of it, as
people. will inevitably incline i) believe the
watch, instead of you The fact, is al—
together with the unsehtimeulal regularity
of its Works. it. has no motive to deviate from
the truth. A watch never cares to take
“just one more wink" of sleep in the morn-
ing; a watch never gives notes that may go
to protest at precisely three o'clock in the
afternoon. It is simply an unsympathetic,
relentless, precise measure of time, with
the COIJSI'qllCDCCS of which it has nothing to
do
It is this thought that gives peculiar force
and :Iptncss to such‘ gift at such a time. Let
it indicate to you the true character of the
life and duties upon which you are about to
enter. It. 'is likely 'to suggest to you that
“there is a time for everything ;” but I would
have you remember that there is no time for
idleness, nor for inconsequent thought or
action. There is a time to laugh, and a time
to weep; a time to work, a time to play, and
a time to rest. Thcnfiis a time to work, and
save, and grow rich ;,but there is no time
to worship money, to grow mean, to oppress
others, or belittle yourself. There is a time
to enjoy the fruits of your labor in rest,
recreation and pleasure; but' no time to
squander in dissipation or in pleasure that
will sap the fountain of your manly virtues.
There is a time to read, and ponder, and
grow wise, but 720 time to waste on poor
books or idle company. There is time for
all good and helpful things, and the oppor-
tunity has now come to you to shape your
life to these solemn requirements—Oollege

way for the craft of' the nations, the work is
done. Or, if .to unite this country more
closely with other nations, we need to trans-
port their masiiive obelisk to Central Park,
the difficulties are soon overcome,
But. no field is more inviting to the inven
tive genius than that. of advertising. No spot
on the globe seems exempt from the manu-
facturer, to nail up, or paint on, or in some
way 'cxhibit his work; from Helmbold’s
Buchu on the summit of Ararat and the
Pyramids of'Egypt, to the rock underneath
the dashing young cataract, at Norwalk
Bridge.
Every field of literature is explored in this
enterprise from the,“Sclcntific American,” to
the show-card on the front and rear of a
darkeg, dressed in chinesc costume, and the
comic business card. .
Another plan is to issue pamphlets and
circulars, in the highest style of art, with
specimen plates, showing the successive
transformations, from, the raw material to
the completed work; or to present real and
complete specimens of the work

tibnall and World's exhibition. Among all
the rich stores in our cities, the showcase or
where the Nations vie with each other in the
expositions of their wares, for the closest
scrutiny, and most thorough competition. In
this way, the physician presents portraits of
his patients, before and after treatment,
showing the changes of their subjects after
taking the medicine prescribed.
But there is one class of our business men
who never advertise more than the instru-
ments of their work, not the work itself—
the manufacturer and vendor of lntoxicating
drinks. It would be very natural, if they
were; engaged in a good work, that they
should prepare their show-window, side by
side with other manufacturers; and place
there a complete specimen of their business;
and to make it more clear, present the sub-
ject at the commencement and close of
their work; from the bright-eyed, flaxen-
haired boy, to the bloated, haggard, drunk-
ard, writhing in the horrors and agony of
delirium tremens. '
And as the crowd pass on label these spec-
imens, This is a sample of our Work! that
“he that runs may read.”
/ Why is it that this class of our community
have neglected this, almost universal, prac-
tice of advertising? And why do they ac-
complish most of their work behind the
scenes and at the midnight hour!
Is it, as the Bible has it, "that. they choose
darkness rather than light, because their
deeds are evil?" Or have they sufficient
custom without it, and fear that they may
be overrun if they advertise.
Will some of our benevolent committees
look into the subject, and interest themselves
in this large class of our fellow citizens.

Wnsmxeron, April 5.-— The department
of agriculture has received ah magnificient
sample of American jute fiber prepared by
mechanical process from green stems grown
in Virginia. It very satisfactorily solves the
problem that has engaged the attention of
the department for over ten years and estab-
lishes the fact that India jute can be success-
fully and profitably grown on American
soil. In the language of the commissionor
"It is a declaration of our independence from
ludia in the matter of jute and means an an-
nual saving to this country of $10,000,000
or over.” The prepared fibre now on exhi—
bition at the the department is pronounced
equal in any respect to foreign fibre. The
plant can be successfully grown in, any sec-
tion of New York and it is believed farther
invented in this country for cleaning and
preparing fibre for the markets. The in—
ventors intend to operate the macnine this
season on the James river. The department
is distributingalarge amount of jute seed
througout the southern states. The yield
of fibre is about 3,500 pounds to the acre,
and the market quotations for the prepared
article is 12% cents per pound. For years
jute has: been to Indian great source of
wealth, and there is no reason why it should
not be an equal source of wealth to the
United States.

nance and broken down constitution -
plainly showed traces of disease—asufi'cr- .
or with Nervous Dyspepsia. in whose
stomach the most delicate morscl lay like
lead. Refreshing sleep and quiet nerves
were strangers to him,and he dcspaircd
of ever being well. .
We advised him to take
Sillillllllll LIVER REGULATOR
which he did, and in :1 short time was not
only relieved butcured.
Reader, if you are suffering with Dys-
pepsia _or Liver Disease in any form. do
not want until the disease has takenu fast
hold upon you,but use the Regulator when
the symptoms first show themselves. It
has relieved untold snfi'ering. SIMMONS
LIVER. REGULATOR is not an alcoholic
stimulant. but u PURELY VEGETABLE
REME DY that W111 cure when everything
else fails. It Is a. faultless family medi-
cine. Does not disarrango the system.
.Is no violent drastic purge, but nature’s
own remedy. The friend of cveryone,and
will not disappoint you, A sin 10 trial
wrll convmce you that it is the _c capest,
purest and best Family Medicine in the
world.
_ ASK the recovered dyspeptic,
billions sufferers, victims of lever
and aguc, the mercurial diseased
patient how they recovered their
‘ health, cheerful spirits and good 0
appetitet—they will tell you by
taking Simmons’ Liver Regulator.

A recent investigation has led to the dis-
covery of the remarkable fact that intense
cold may deprive magnetized steel bars of
nearly all their magnetism. This fact has
an important bearing npo'n oblervations of
the magnetic condition of _ the earth taken in
high latitudes; for what appears to be daily
and yearly changes in the earth’s magnetism
may be due in a large part to conditions of
temperature, which meet the magnets used
in the observations.
M. Leon Manet has succeeded inbleaching
by means of the electric light. The concen-
hated rays completely decolorize blood albu-
men in “Willi-four hours, under ordinary
conditions. .
3 The obscure poison which rod h dro.
phobia has been known to lie 1:12:18“: the
human system for years before developing
its fatal results. M. Pasteur declares the
supposition to be well supported that the
virus does develop in certain organs, and not
as in other similar maladies, in the blood;
and that when—after a period variable
according to circumstances—the organized
poison passes into the bloodfievere symptoms
cane on rapidly, and the victim soon dies.
An explanation substantially the same as this
had long been advanced as a mere theory,but
now M. Pasteur advances it as an ascertained
physiological fact.
Eminent occulists having pronounced the
reading of German text to be injurious to
the eyes, the Bernese government has re-
solved to discontinue its use as much as pos-
sible,vand all their ofilcial announcements
will be printed exclusively in Roman char-
acters.
A new safety lamp for miners emits aloud
sound whenever an explosive mixture of gas
and air enters'it, thus giving warning of the
presence of fire-damp.
Dr. Sangfeldt has tried a number of sub-
stances for destroying microscopic life in
drinking water the most strikng result
being obtained from citric acid. When on
part of the acid was added to, two thousand
parts of water, life ceased in from one-half
to two minutes. Microscopic examination
showed that those forms of animalcule hav-
ing a thick, scaly covering are not affected
by the dilute citric acid, but only those with
thinner coatings. The greater part of these
unwelcome visitors belong, however, to the
latter class, while the former are visible to
the naked eye, 00 that a solution of the
strength mentioned will sufiice as a safe-
guard. The dead animalcuke immediately
settle to the bottom of the vessel containing
the water,and may be found in the sediment.
The solution of citric acid spoils quickly,and
it is recommended that it befreshly prepared
every day.
The earth's eastward rotation, together
with the increase in~ rate from the poles to
the equator-mas a tendency to throw the
waters of streams against their western
banks sufficient to produce quite marked
eflects in many parts of the world. It is
noticeable in large rivers where the deposits
are earthy, and the pitch of the water is ‘
small and in direction of the stream, the
bank against which the water strikesthe
more forcibly being high and steep while the
other is low. - The effect has been observed
in many streams of Eur-0pc and Asia, and on
- the rivers. intersecting the low land of the
Atlantic border-of the United States.
M. de Rossi has been led by certain exper -
iments to believe that explosions of fire-damp .
are preceded by slight undulations and noises
too small to be detected by any means except
the microphone. He thinks that by the aid
of microphonic observations in collieries the
presence of large quantities of inflammable
gas in the earth might be detected in season
to prevent disastrous consequences.
M. Mills, by means of a test so delicate as
to detect the presence of alcohol in a million
times its weight of water, has found that
alcohol exists irrall natural waters except
very pure spring water. It isfound in greater
quantity in snow, and without doubt floats as
vapor in the air. _ In soils, especial“ ly those
rich» in organic matter,there is a considerable
quantity.
At the Toronto General Hospital a young
man's leg was lately amputated at the hip by
a platinum wire raised to a white heat by an
electric current. The great heat contracted
the ends of the arteries as the limb was cut
by the wire, so that it was necessary to tie
the larger ones only.
In Sheffield, Englanddt been proposed
to fix a microphone in the tower of the town
-clock, and connect it with the telephone ex-
change. Through this means any telephone
subscriber may have his wire switched to the
microphone wire,and thus be enabled to hear
the clock strike any hour of the day. .
A telegraph wire in India is stretched be-
tween the summits of two hills—each hill
being 12,000 feet high—across the Kistnah
river. The span of wire is over 6,000 feet in
length, and is believed to be the longest in
the world. The only engineering appliance
used in stretching this cable was a common
Windlass.
A new form of thermometer indicates the
temperature of any place at a considerable
distance through the agency of electricity.
The cranium in giants is usually small in
relation to their stature, but often enormous
in absolute measure, although their intelli-
gencc is generally small. An example was
Broea‘s giant Joachim, credited with a very
small amount of sense. Yet this'great imbe‘
cile bad a huge cranium,and hisbrain weigh-
ed nearly as much as that of Cuvier.

Scandalous.
Mrs. Homespun threw down the paper
and pulled off her spectacles with a vicious
jerk. “It’s perfectly scand'lous 1” she or
claimed. “For my part, I can’t see how any
respectable woman could ever wear such a
thing as that. When I was a gal we used to
wear low necks and short sleeves; but
mercy l" and here she cast a withering
glance at the paper in her lap before flinging
it upon the floor. "Why, what. is the mat-
ter, au‘?” asked Cicely, picking up the
paper. “Matter! matter enough, I should
say I" cried the excited lady; “just look at
that fashion-plate there, ‘if you are not
ashamed to look at it. It is perfectly scand-
lous, I say.” "Why, aunt i" said Cicely, her
eyes brimming with fun, “that is only sliver
pad picture!” “I don't care what kind of
a new-fangled name they give it," persisted
her aunt, “it’s scand’lous and disgraceful;
and no woman that’s got a spark of modesty
about her would ever be seen in one of
them.”

Jaws 1s THE sonoons —It is a noticeable
fact that of the one hundred boys, the
picked scholars of the.New York public
schoots, to whom were given the Obelisk
m‘edals,some thirty were the sons of German
Jews. The New York College and the Nor-
mal College for the education of female
teachers show an equally large pmpquion of
Jewish students; that is to say. while there
Is only one Jewish scholar for fifty of other
- ‘raees and denominations, the young Hebrews
take one out of every three prizes for-scholar -
chip. Disraeli in his novels, “Coningsby,"
"Tancred” and “Endymion," has boldly
claimed that the Jews are superior to any
nee on earth, and that their supremacy can
be seen in every department of human effort.

and the Normal College of New York would
