. .' F‘Vico President.” Davis.
| One of the noticeable features of the
peaceful cOhntcr-revolution which was cf-
fectcd Thursday in the Senate of the Unit-
ed States was the good nature, amounting
to hilarity, with which the Senators regarded
the accession of Judge Davis to the chaIr.
Nobody felt that any harm was done when
aman so universally liked was voted into
the chief place of the Senate. He is not one
of the veterans of the Chamber—he has not
yet completed his first-term—but it is hardly
too much to say that every Senator is his
personal friend. He is a man Of peculiarly
genial and winning qualities. He was one
of the’; pioneer lawyers of Illinois, and al-
thouglifavorcd with better education and a
wider knowledge of the world than that
possessed by most contemporaries he made
his way in that most democratic of all so-
cieties by virtue of the qualities of frank and
genuine manhood. He was one of that
goodly fellowship of Whig lawyers which
held the faith so stoutly for many years
against an overwhelming Democratic major-v
ity; and,when the Anti-Nebraska party grew
up out of the chaos into which politics In the
West were plunged by the destruction of
the Whig organization and the repel of the
Missouri Compromise, David Davis, with
Lincoln, Archie Williams, Leonard’chtt,
Browning, Stephen T. Logan and others,
laid the foundation of Illinois Republicanism
so broad and deep that it has lasted in all its
strength to this day. Of all the founders of
the party, David Davis was perhaps the most
universally popular in the State, with a
personal popularity entirely distinct irom
political standing, which in fact he neither
possessed in any great degree nor especially
cared for. We hear a great deal of Lincoln’s
“intimate. friends"—the
hundred” is only the beginning of the cata-
louge with which readers of newspapers are
familiar. Those who know him well, knpw
how singularly narrow was the range of his
intimacies. Few great men ever lived with
fewer personal friends. But first and fore-
most in that narrow circle was David Davis.
There was something in the open,wholesome,
breezy, large nature of Davis which was
extremely attractive to the more uneven and
serious temperament of Lincoln. When he
became President—an event which he owed
in great measure to the untiring work, at
Chicago and before, of Davis, Logan, Mar.
shall and Judd —Davis was one of those who
asked for nothing, and might= have thought,
he was forgotten, until the death of Judge
McLean made a vacancy on the bench of the:
Supreme Court. There was great compe-
tition for the place,'but Lincoln never had
“but one intention in regard to it. “I think
that place will just fit David Davis,” he
said, and he gave it to him without a word
of solicitation. » ‘ ' j
The'Ju‘dgeiis'the sort of man of whom
stories are sure to be told. - The .bar of Illi-
nois‘ and Indiana have endless anecdotes of
him as lawyer and magistrate. During the
campaign of 1800 his whole heart was engag« ;
ed in the cause of Lincoln’s candidacy, and
his mind was apt to wander in that direction
even while he was on the beach. It is said
on one occasion,when a prosy attorney was
darkening counsel with much language, the
Judge went off intothe realms of conjecture
about the size of the vote Douglass would
get. The lawyer happened to say, “And
now, your Honor, the matter rests in this
State." The last word roused the
Judge from his reverie. Still thinking of
the Little Giant, he cried, “State ! State! he
won’t carry a county." After his translation
to the Supreme Bench, the added dignity
was not enough to quench wholly the fire of
his temperament.‘ He relates himself a
whimsical story of his first day on that
Bench. He was quite impressed with the
importance of his functions and listened with
all his ears to what was going on. A young
lawyer was making what our ex-Senator
would call “a halcyon and vociferous” speech.
After the harangue had lasted for an hour
Judge Grier, who was seated next to Davis,
turned as if to speak to him. Davis inclined‘
his head, expecting to hear some profound
observation on the law of the case. The
venerable Grier whispered. “D-—- that, fel-
low! He makes such: row I can’t sleep!"
Judge Davis soon‘got' to 'be' very much at
home on the Bench, and‘especially enjoyed
his circuit duties in his old field Of work in A
the West. He Was greatly liked by the bar,
though he had an eye like‘a' hawk for any
manifestation of'meanness or greed. It is
related, that on one oc'casion in Indiana, when
a certain case wascalled, one of the parties
asked for a continuance, as his counsel was
absent. The'lawyer on the other side de—
manded an immediate hearing. ' Davis looked
at him with a dangerous smile, and said,
“Very well, my friend, we'llgo on if you say
so. But Iought to tell you that in such
asses I always think it my duty to look out
for the side thatisnot represented by coun-
sel. Wehad [mass of} that sort .in Terre
Haute the other'diiy', where a man insisted
on going on when the other side wasn’t there,
and singular as it may seem, we beat that
fellow." The case was continued —-Ncw

A Cheerful Woman.
What a .L‘Itsr‘lllg in a 'hou-I-bold is a
merry, cheerful woman—one 'Ah-Isc spirits
are not affected by wet days, or little disap-
pointment, or whose milk of human kindness
does not sour in the sunshine of prosperity.
Bush's Woman, in the darkest hours, bright-
ens the house like a little piece of sunshiny
weather. The magnetism of her smile’s and
“to electrical brightness _of her looks and

day, far off her presence shines, and he
whispers to himself, “At home I shall find
rest.” So day by day she literally renews
his strength and energy; and if you know a
man with a beaming face, a kind heart, and
a prosperous business, in nine cases out of
ten, you will find he has a wife of this kind.

flow a Scofl‘er was Silenced.
The Rev. Joel Benedict, father of the late
Erastus C. Benedict. of New York City, was
many years ago pastor of the church in Delhi
N. Y., where lived Gen. Erastus Root, was
was a notorious scoffer, and never lost an
opportunity to hit the domiine,‘,who for his
part thought discretion the better part of
valor, and avoided him. One day the gen-
eral was disposed to have some fun at the
miniatcr’s expense, and invited him to tea.
The invitation was accepted and the minister
came. Hardly had he entered the house
before his host, with that delicacy and fine
sense of politeness for which infidels are
generally distinguished, began his accustom-
ed fiings at religion and at ministers of which
his guest took no notice. But the assaults
became more pointed and insulting, until
Mr. Benedict, concluded that forbearance
was no longer a virtue, and quietly remark-
ed:—
“General Boot, you remind me of Uncle
Toby’s dog.”
"Well, what of Uncle Toby's dog?”
“Nothing; only he had a habit of always
barking at the black coats.”
“Humph! What did he bark at the black
coats for P"
“Oh, I' suppose it was because he was a
puppy !”~ ’ ,
It is said that-ever after Gen. Root treated
Mr. Benedict’with the utmost respect. That
one lesson was sufficient—Nero York Em-
geli'st. , ,' ,
“Lay off» your overcoat or you won‘t feel
it when you go but," said the landlord of a
western inn to a guest who was sitting by
the firs. “That's what I’m afraid of" replied
the-man- “The last time I was here I laid
' off my Overcoat. I didn't feel it when I
went out and I, havn’t felt it since.”—-Sa.tur—

The London Tlmcs‘.
newspaper over breakfast has a very vague
idea of the tremendous organization of men
and means and machinery necessary to’ the
'daily journal’s production, Apart from the
correspondents. the telegraphisls, the steam-
ers, the railway trains, that are engaged in its
service abroad, there are at home the editors,
leader-writers, critics, reviewers, reporters,
messengers, a multitude of persons, men of
the highest culture and learning, down to the
nimblcst of chroniclers, telegraph clerks and
messengers. These, formidable as is their
power, simply supply the pabulum, the man-
uscript, the material for manufacture. How
great'and how little all this is an outsider can
hardly appreciate until he has seen a, leading
newspaper establishment at work.
Times office is a vast machine shop and fac-
tory. Everything in the place, except the
paper, is made on the spot. The Walter
machines were made here, as were also those
which print thc Daily News, the Scotsman,
the Liverpool' Post, the New York Times,
and other papers. Indeed, the whole of the
appliances in the printing of the paper and
lighting of the rooms (even the electric
lamps) are manufactured on the premises,
Which embraces machine shops, type, stereo-
type and clectrotype founderies, electricians’
laboratories, etc. The whole of the build-
ings were designed and built by Mr. Walter
and Mr. Macdonald, without the aid of arch-
itect Or contractor. The very bricks were
made on Mr. Walter’s estate at Bearwood
and brought to London by his own people.
The intervention of third parties, such as
contractors outside the control of Mr. Mac-
donald, would have made the reconstruction
of an establishment like the Times during its
business hours almost an impossibility. The
top floor of the building is devoted to the
bound files Of the paper. Descending to the
next, you come to dining rooms and kitchens
—onc department for clerks, another for the
compositors and workmen generally. The
service is conducted on canteen principles,
and as a rule, all the employees are glad to
have the opportunity of taking their meals
here. The kitchens are fitted up with every
modern appliance. The meats are not bak-
ed,‘ all kinds of joints together, in one OVen,
as is the case in most English restaurants, to
the ‘utter destruction of" their individual
character andfiavor; they are roasted before
open fires. "I noticed that there is a complete
staff of cooks, with a chef, who appears to
take a special pride in his art. On this floor
there are also store rooms and other apart
meats. As you descend you come next to
broad and high composing rooms, lighted
with electric lamps. Cloak rooms are pro-
videdfor the men, each article of clothing
being checked by an attendant after the man-
ner '0an New York club house. Here and
there are quiet offices, with telephonic and
other machines in use and on trial. One
room is-devoted to the special Paris wire.
By the-side of the telegraph which reels off
its message on quite familiar rolls of paper,is
a type setter, so that the Paris letter is put
into type, hot as it comes in, from the slips
themselves.
phones connected with the reporter’s rooms
at the Houses of Parliament. During last
session all the night reports were sent to the
office through this medium. The stenogrs-
pher writes out his notes as heretofore, then
the manuscript is read off through the tele-
phone. The recipients of the messages at
the Times oflice dictate them to the type set-
ters, and so they are put into type. The
manuscript comes up from the House as
heretofore, and goes into the reading room,
so that the proofs‘arc read by the original
copy, thus checking the telephonic dictation.
The type setting machine is made in the
Times office, and is as near perfection as it is
likely to be in our time. In a corner 'of one
of the great composing rooms there are six
or seven of these little machines. They are
capable of “composing" three parts of the
news portion of the paper, each putting up
five or six columns a night. The editorial
and writing rooms occupy the next story be-
low, and convenient to the chief clerk's desk
is a telegraph in direct communication with
Mr. Renter's ofi‘lce. , ,
Apneumatic tube is used right through
the premises for the distribution of “copy,”
proofs, and messages. On the ground floor
are the machines, engines—the latter in pairs
in case of accident—founderies and publish-
ing ofiices; so that the last operation of pro-
duction, the printing of the forms, is con-
ducted with the added facilities of approxi-
mation of departments, The forms come
down; they are stereotyped; they pass to
the machine; the paper is printed, and goes
forth to the publishing office, which opens its
doors at about four each morning to the cart-
ers and porters of Smith 85 Sons, who are the
chief distributers of the leading journal. In
front of these busy rooms, cut off from the
heat of the machinery, and having an outlet
upon Queen Victoria street, are the advertis-
ing offices and the letter and inquiry depart-
ment.
and government bureau in one, the establish-
ment now assumes the appearance of abank.
The similarity is not without point, for here
come “in the sincws of war.” In this dc-
partmcnt there is a telephone in communica—
tion with~the Royal Exchange, which can be
switched off to the leading ofiices of all
the leading advertising agents throughout the
city. V
The inquiry department is for the use of
pcrsons who choose to have their letters ad-
drcssul to the Times oflice, for consulting
the files and other purposes—a convenience
whici the public evidently-appreciates. The
Times, with all its ramifications and influen-
ces, reaches from Printing_Ho'use Square to
the uttermost ends of the earth, constitutes
one of » the modern wonders of the world and
nothing about it is more remarkable than the
fact that it may be said to. have grown up in
our day. The art of printing has been liter-
ally revolutionized by the prescnt Mr. Walter
and Mr. Macdonald.
The Times was started in 1785 under the
title of the Daily Universal Register, and
adopted its present title three years later.
It was originated by Mr. John Walter. grand-
father of the present chief proprietor Mr.
John Walter, M. P., for Berkshire, who
earned for his paper the sob'riquet of “The
Thunderer" by his fearless attacks upon na-
tional abuses, his defense of the Right, and
his defiance of all obstructions that the
Wrong might plant in his way.
On the 29th Of November, 1814, the Times
was printed by steam—the first instance of
steam being applied to printing. The Book
of Days, Mr. Grant’s Newspaper Press and
British Manufacturing Industries contain
details of this notable change in the produc-
tion of newspapers. and the reader who de-
sires to investigate it is referred to these kin-
dred works. The Times is still a high priced
journal (3d.), is printed on superb paper,
and its staff includes some Of the ablest men
in Europe. It pays princely salaries to its
departmental chiefs and foreign correspond-
ents, and stands by its writers with a loyal
tenacity. - ‘
“The Walter Printing Press," which is
capable of printing 22,000 or 24,000 an hour.
is the invention of the present Mr. Walter,
who supplements his scientific studies and
journalistic duties with the onerous labo‘rs
that belong to a seat in Parliament. The
Walter machine was constructed under the
superintendencc of Mr. Macdonald, who is
,constantly engaged in working out some new
scheme for the reduction of labor and the
perfection of the art of printing. It were
too great a tax upon these pages to say in
how many directions the Times management
is engaged; but the Walter succession in
Printing House Square is wonderfully main-
tained. ~. .
When a stamp duty was enforced upon
advertisements, the Time paid £70,000 in
one year (1830) to the government. If this
cxaction had been continued, as well as the
penny stamp on each paper, the Times, on its
present sale and present number of advertise-
ments, would have had to pay over £450,000
a year. ' Iam not in a position to say what

WOMAN’S PRAYERJ
’Twas a widow's home and a winter night;
white,
And out of the window a woman’s eyes
Looked over the field and up at the skies
With a. gaze that burned with a solemn ire
That leaped like a flame from a heart-on'fire.
Away and over the field of snow
They had carried her husband a month ago
To a drunkard‘s grave—and a drunkard’s
fame
Like the blight of the mildew had covered his
name;
And her only son, with his father’s thirst,
Like a fiend at his throat, by the demon
cursed,
Was led in chains to the loathsome den
Where demons are made of the hearts of
men.
She.had plead with them, she had plea‘d with
him, ,
Till her check, grew pale and her eyes grew
dim ; '
She had pointed the way that his father trod
That led to that,“gravc ’ncath the frozen sod
She had warned and counselled and prayed.
in vain—
His soul was held as by book and chain;
And the demon laughed with chuckle and
gun;
“Aha"! he said, “but I shall win!
Let the mother weep and hog and pins 1
By the law of the land the right is mine
There is no law like that of gold;
I have bought the right to win and hold.
I bought the right and I bought it dear;
Shall I give up for a woman‘s tear?j
Have I come to you with a story old
That is hackneyed and worn till it will not
hold
To be passed around ? It is not new;
It is old as the crime that made it true.
It has run through long chapters of grief and
shame, , ‘ _
It has published its heroes name by name,
And how much they could drink as the stand-
ard of fame.
It has taken us down to the churchyard
glooms,
And painfully led as among the tombs:
Then backward again to the shame and grief
The same thing over as leaf by leaf.
The world has read'it again and again
Till its heart grew numb to the sense of pain,
Till the eyes grew drowsy that used to weep;
And the tale went on, but the world was
asleep.
But there is a change, and the story true
Is growing-space into something new, -
The world is awake and its ear is set,
Its lips are apart and its eyelids Wet ;
For that night, while her boy was in the den
Where demons are made of the hearts of men,
While they filled the how! that hcquickly
quaffed,
While they spake his mother’s name and
laughed,
She out of her window in stern despair
Lifted to God a mother's prayer:
And God drew near, and He laid His hand
Upon her with a strange command: '
“Arise thou, therefore,” said the Lord ;
“Be doing, and you have my word:
Lo, I am with thee, and my power
Shall be thy heritage and dower.”
“What can I do but weep ?” she said.
“The work is great ; send thou instead
Some mighty one, for I am weak ;
From out these tears how can I speak P"
Then came the word “Canst thou refuse?
The weak things of the world I choose.
Nothing but love can conquer death ;
Sin yields to none but trusting Faith.
Take but thy broken heart of love
The faith whose eyes is turned above ;
Go in thy weakness, and the strength
01 God shall be revealed at length.”
Across the snow-clad field she went,
Her form beneath her burden bent;
Her shrinking steps despised the way
That to the haunt of demons lay,
The path whose end she know too well—
The path whose steps take hold on hell.
She gained the door, she entered in;
The air was like the breath of sin ;
But silence fell upon the throng,’
The singer’s voice dropped from his song,
Her son looked up with sullen eye.
She stood a moment silently,
Then silently she knelt and prayed;
Tney looked upon her and, dismayed,
They felt the prayer they did not hear,
And trembled with a‘namcless fear.
She only prayed and turned away.
And took the path th ll. lI-mreward lay,
While in her iminnst soul She felt
That God spake for her while she knelt.
Next day she went and knelt the same ;
Without a word she went and came,
And day by day, with tearful face
And silent lips; she sought the place,
Andpoured the anguish of her prayer
Before the Lord,and left it there.
The place grew dreadful; for the Lord
In faithfulness fulfilled his word.
She went in weakness, but in strength
Of God was manifest; at length
His heavy hand upon them fell
And from the wine-cup swept the spell,
And in his soul the drinker shrank
E’en while the venomed cup he drank.
They watched for her: and when she came,
They crept away with guilty shame ;
And all day long, and all the night,
Asleep, awake, by dark or light,
That womanzwirh the silvery hair,
Just as she bowed in silent prayer,
Haunted the man who kept the den.
Where demons are made of the hearts of men.
At length one day, as the door she swung,
He met her and asked with faltering tongue
How long she intended to come and pray?
“As long as you sell l" He turned away
To hide from her ,his burning cheek,
’l‘o gather the voice with which to speak.
“Then I surrender! I cannot bear
This awful spell of a woman’s prayer l"
So the den was closed, and bells were rung,
And shouts leaped forth, and songs were
sung;
And' like rushing flames the tidings ficw
Of what a woman’s prayer could do.
Then out of heaven there came a word,
And it filled and thrilled the hearts that
heard;
“This work has waited a hundred years
‘For woman’s prayer and woman’s tears. ”

“There is nothing accidental.” remarks Dr.
F- L. Oswald. “and rarely anythinginevit-
able, about a disease; we can safely assume
that nine out of. ten complaints have been
caused and can be cured by the sufferers or
their nurses themselves. "God made man
upright,” every prostrating malady is a devi-
ation from the state of nature. The infant,
mewling and puking in its nurse’s arms, is
an abnormal phenomenon. Infancy should
be 8 Period of exceptional health; the young
of other creatures are healthier, as well as
prettier, purer and merrier, than the adults,
yet the childhood years of the human animal
are the years of sores: sickliness; statistics
show that among the Caucasian races, men
of thirty have more hope to reach a good
old age than a new born child has to reach
the end of its sceond year. The reason is
this: The health theories of the average
Christian man and woman are egregiously
wrong, so that only‘ the opposition of their
better instincts helps them—against their
struggle for a tolerable existence with"any-
thing like success, while the helpless infant
has to conform to these theories—with the
above results. Dr. Oswald’s remedies for
this state of affairs are those of all the hy-
gienic writers of the day, viz: better food
and less of it, pure air, proper exercise and
plenty of sleep.
The experiments of several seconds have
shown that eighty-eight per cent. of. the

Among the many noteworthy applications
of electricity during the past few years, one
of the most remarkable is the gastroscope,
an instrument for viewing the contents of
the stomach. The apparatus consists chiefly
of a bent tube, at the lower end of which is
a tinylglass lantern, while the uppér end ter-
minutes in an eye-piece. In use, the lower
end of the tube is passed into the stomach
and esophagus, the upper end projecting
far enough for the convenience of the opera.-
tor. Small wires conduct an electric current
along the tube to the lantern, where a plati-
num wire is rendered incandescent by the
electricity, thus illuminating every part of
the stomach. The lantern consists of two
globes, one within the other, between which
uncomfortable heating of the outside.
Through the small window in the lantern the
images from the stomach travel along the
tube to the eye-piece, being beat by prisms
sufficiently to pass around the curve. By
an ingenious contrivance the window is re-
volved at pleasure, so that any portion of the
stomach’s contents may in turn be brought
to view. This new scientific marvel has
been in actual use in Vienna, and will proba-
bly prove valuable to medical men in study-
ing digestion and diseases of the stomach.

of the grasshopper is caused by friction of

M. Pasteur has resolved to extend his du-

seems to be as yet merely standing upon the
threshold of useful discovery.

The Editor.
ABRIEF mscounss ON THE HABITS on THE
CREATUBE.
Boston Transcript.
The editor is a member of that race of an-
imals called mankind. He is invariabiya
kind man. ‘
He is perfectly harmless. You may go
into his den without fear. But he has his
peculiarities. The sight of a poet makes
him wild. He is then very dangerous, and
is apt to do bodily harm to_ all within his
reach. He is also much wrought ‘up when
a man comes in with a little trifle he has just
dashed off. '
There is one thing that must be said in
the editor‘s dispraise. His mind is sobiased
by long thinking in a certain direction that
he dislikes very much to look upon both sides
of a question. Therefore, if you value your
safety, never approach him with manuscript
written on both sides of your paper.
The editor usually writes with a pen, but
his most cutting articles are the product of
his shears.
And let me say right here, children. that
a good deal of sheer nonsense has been print-
ed about the editor. He uses his shears
only when composing an entirely original
article.
The editor would make a goOd public
, speaker, but for his propensity for clipping
words-
Thc editor’s hardest task is to dispose of
his time. It is a monotonous life indeed,
were it not for the kindness 'of the few hun-
dred people who call upOn him every day,
to enliven his dull life with stories of their
grievances, of their brand-new enterprises,
and with antediluvian anecdotes. When
y.ou grow-up to be men and women, children,
remember this, and spend all the time you
can in the sanctum of the editor. He loves
company so much, you know, and sometimes
he has to sit silent and alone for a whole half
minute. Is it not too bad?
The business of the editor is to entertain
itinerant lecturers, book eanvassers, ex-
change fiends. and other philanthropists.
He gives his whole day to these. He writes
his {editorials at night after he has gone to
bed. ~
The editor is never so happy as when he
is writing complimentary notices. For ten
cents’ worth of presents he will gladly give
ten dollars’ worth .of advertising—all on ac-
count of the pleasure it gives him to write,
you know, children.
He loves to write neat little speeches and
bright witty poems for people without brains
who wish to speak in public. It is so easy to
'do this that he is sometimes quite miserable
when an hour or two passes without an op-
portunity to do something of the kind.
The editor dines at all the hotels free, he
travels free, theaters open wide their. doors
to him, his tailor clothes him gratis, his
butcher and grocer furnishing him with food
without money and without price. In short,
his every want is provided for. He spends
his princely salary in building churches and
school-houses in foreign lands.
By all means, children, be editors. Of
course, it would bebetter if you couldbe hod
carriersor. dray horses. But, as that him:
Why all means be “born. '
a stream of water is passed to prevent any .
conscience, as it were—to maintain the“
