Without Capital.
It is bad beginning business without capi-
tal. It is hard marketing with empty pock-
ets. We want a nesbegg, for hens will lay
where there are eggs. already. It is true you
must bake with the flour you have, but if
the suck is empty, it might be quite as well
not to art up for a baker. Making bricks
without straw is easy enough compared with
making money when you have none to start
with. You, young gentleman, stay as a jour-
neyman a little longer, till you have saved
a few pounds; fly when yOur wings have got
feathers; but if you try it too soon, you will
be like the young rock that broke its neck
through trying to fly before it was fledged.
Every minnow wants to bea whale, but it is
prudent to be a little fish while you have but
little water; when your pond becomes the
sea, then swell as much as you like. Trading
without capital is like'building a house with-
out bricks, making a fire without sticks,
burning candles without wicks; it leads
them into tricks, and lands them in a fix.—

“Whence and Whither.”
rue nmounxr rNoaasou. AT A nrran Boris
anavm.
In a reméte corner of of the Congressional
Cemetery yesterday afternoon, a small group
of people with uncovered heads ranged
around a new-opened grave. They included
' Detective and Mrs. George 0. Miller, and
family and friends, who had gathered to
: witness the burial of the farmer’s bright
little son Harry, arecent victim of diphtheria
As the casket rested upon the trestles, there
was a painful pause, broken only by the
mother’s sobs, until the undertaker advanc-
ed toward a stout, florid complexioned gen-
tleman in the party and whispered to him,
the words being inaudible to the lockers-on.
This gentleman was 001. Robert G. Ingersoll
a friend of the Millers, who attended the
funeral at their request. He shook his head
when the undertaker first addressed him,
and then said suddenly: “Does Mr. Miller
desire it ?" The undertaker gave an affirm-
ative nod, Mr. Miller looked appealingly
toward the noted orator, and then hastily
Col. Ingersoll advanced to the side of the
grave, made a motion denoting a desire for
silence, and in a voice of exquisite cadence
delivered one of his characteristic eulogles
for the dead. The scene was intensely dra-
matic. A fine drizzling rain was falling and
every head was bent to catch the impassioned
words of eloquence and hope, that fell from
the lips of the distinguished speaker. ' Col. In-
gersoll was unprotected by either hat or um-
brella, and his invocation thrilled his hearers
with awe, each eye that had previously been
bedimmed with tears brightening, and sobs
becoming hushed. Col. Ingersoll said:
Mr FBIENDS:—-I know how vain it is to
igild a grief with words, and yet I wish to
take from every grave its fear. Herein this
world, where life and death are equal kings,
all should be brave enough to meet what all
the dead have met. The future has been
filled with fear, stained and polluted by the
heartless past. From the wondrous tree of
life the buds and blossoms fall with ripened
fruit, and in the common bed of earth the
patriarchs and babes sleep side by side.
Why should we fear that which will come
to all that is? We cannot tell, we do:not
know which is the greater blessing—life or
death. We cannot say that death is not a
good. We do not know whether the grave
is the end of this life, or the door of another
or whether the night here is not somewhere
else a dawn. Neither can we tell which is
the more fortunate—the child dying in its
mothers‘ arms, before its lips have learned to
form a word, _or he who journeys all the
length, of life’s uneven road, painfully taking
the last slow steps with staff and crutch. ...
Every cradle asks us “Whence ?" and av
ery coffin, “Wither i” The poor barbarian
weeping above his dead, can answer these
questions as intelligently and satisfactorily
as the robed priest of the most authentic
creed. The tearful ignorance of the one'is
just as consoling as the learned and unmean-
ing Words of the other. No man, standing
where the horizen of a life has touched a
grave, has any right to prophesy a future
filled with pain and tears. It may be that
death gives all there is worth to life. If
those we press and strain against our hearts
could never die, perhaps that love would
wither from the earth. May be this common
fate treads from out the paths between our
hearts the weeds of selfishness and hats, and
I had rather live and love where death is king
than have eternal life where love is not. An-
other life is nought, unless we know and love.
again the ones who love us here.
They who stand with breaking hearts
around this little grave, need have no fear.
The larger and the nobler faith in all that is
and is to he, tells us that death, even at its
worst, is only perfect rest. We know that
through the common wants of life—the needs
and duties of each hour—their grief will
lesson day by day, until at last this grave
will be to them a place of rest and peace—
almost of joy. There is for them this con-
solation: The dead do not suffer. If they
live again, their lives will surely be as good
as ours. We have no fear. We are all
children of the same mother, and the same
fate awaits us all. We, too, have our relig-
ion, and it is this: Help for the living—Hope
for the dead.
At the conclusion of Col. Ingersoll’s re-
marks, the little cofiin covered with beauti-
ful and fragrant flowers was lowered into its
last resting place.
m
A Curious Consultation.
When the railroad was opened for travel
between Washington and Baltimore, I saw
Mr. Webster frequently; but it was not until
we were both employed in the important case
of Wilson vs. Rousseau, in the Supreme
Court, that I was again brought into profes-
sional relations with him. Our client, Mr.
James G. Wilson, had no less than seven
counsel—Mr. Webster, Mr. William H. Sew-
ard, Mr. Reverdy Johnson, Mr. Phelps, of
Vermont, Mr. Henderson, of Louisiana, Mr.
Hall, of .Washington,and,.myself. The Court
had consented to our dividing the points—
.two speaking to each. But the difficulty
was to get us all together for consultation.
At last, in despair of succeeding otherwise,
Mr. Wilson invited us to a supper at the Na-
tional Hotel, at nine o’clock, With the under-
standing that a. consultation would take place
at eight. It was not until half past eight,
however, that Mr. Webster called us to or-
der, stated the object of the meeting, and
complimented our host for his excellent
judgment as displayed in the means ldopted
for securing the attendance of his profession- .
al-advisers. Turning then to Mr. Seward,
he said, “ And now, Brother Seward, you
will begin with reading the record.” Records
in those days were not printed, as now, but
were engrossed on folio cap paper, and in
this particular case the record was a heavy
pile of manuscript, which Mr. Seward rested
on his lap, and which would have taken sev-
eral hours to read, while there remained not'
more than twenty minutes before supper
would be ready. Mr. Seward, however, be-
gan with the formal heading, and was'going
on when interrupted by a burst of laughter,
which was not quieted by the grave judicial
manner in which Mr. Wilson called for order
and requested “ Brother Seward ” to pro-
ceed. By this time Mr. Seward, who as yet
had preserved his countenance, joined in the,
mirth; when Mr. Webster shrugging his
shoulders and turning to our client, said,
“You see how it is, Mr. Wilson; there
seems to be no alternative but to begin with
supper. Do you think it is ready? Perhaps
we may get on better with the record after-
ward ;" and to supper in an adjoining room
Mr. Wilson and his counsel marched,and
with Mr. Webster at the head of the proces-
sion.
There was more than one good talker at
the table, and for a while the conversation
was general. It was not long, however, be-
fore we were all listening to Mr. Webster.
“Conticuere omnes. intentique ora tenebant.”
He was " i’ the vein," and the hours flew
by unheeded as there streamed from him, in
rapid succession, anecdotes, quotation, refer-
ences to his boyhood, incidents in his early
practice, descriptions of the" men who then
figured upon the scene, graphic accounts of
old familiar places, He was sometimes
gr'ave, solemn even; sometimes pathetic;
sometimes, and by no means unfrequently,
quaint, droll, and humorous; sometimes
setting the table in a roar; then again mov-
ing his hearers almost to tears. Sure of his
company, he was under no restraint, and
seemed disposed to let his animal spirits run
away with him, to forget the eminent lawyer
and the great statesman, to roll off the sixty-
five years that then weighed upon him. and
be a boy again. I believe I am the sole sur-
vivor of that merry party thirty-three years
ago ; and many as hayebeen the social gath-
erings at which in'riiy owniand other lands
I have been present,I have no suchexperience -
as that afforded by the attempt at aconsulta:
in the case of Wilson vs. Rousseau, in the
year 1846. . ‘
I ought to add that, somehow or other,
when the argument came on, we fell into
our proper places,aud that Mr. Wilson gained

TEMPEDANCE.
Contributsdbynadles of Norwalk Temp. Union :
Probitlon'or License :
Which ?
BY HON. NEAL DOW.
It is a curious thing that Intelligent men
should differ in opinion as to the wiser and
truer policy to be adopted by society toward
the liquor traffic—prohibition or license.
First of all to determine what this policy
should be, we need to determine what» the
relation is of the liquor traffic to the general
welfare. Is it good or bad 7. Is it partly good
and partly bad? and if so, is it more good
than bad, or more bad than good? Having
settled that, it seems to me, there can be no
difficulty in determining what policy the state
should adopt in relation to it.
We say the liquor traffic is all bad; there
is no good about it; it is so bad in its influ-
once upon the common Wcal that nothing can
be worse. The evils coming fmn it. to every
public and social interest, are more and great-
er than those which arise from all other
sources of evil combined. No one has ever
denied or doubted this—so far as I know.
Mr. Gladstone recently said of it : “More
cvlls come from it to the people than from
war, pcstience and famine, those three great
scourages of the human family.” Chief J as-
tice Davis said: “If all the evils of what-
ever kind were divided into five parts, the
liquor trafilc would be responsible for four of
them.” No one denies that all this is true of
the relation of the liquor traffic to the general
welfare. -
This being so,what should be the policy of
the State in relation to it. The law has for-
bidden lotteries and lottery offices; the man-
ufacture and sale of obscene books and pic-
tures; gambling houses; houses of ill-fame.
Why? Because their influences is bad: they
are inconsistent with" the general wellfare.
This policy towards these industries is uni-
versally accepted as wise and right. The li-
quor traffic inflicts upon the community a
thousand folds more evil than all these com-
bined. We say therefore, it should not be
licensed, established and protected by law,
but should be forbidden and suppressed. It
wages deadly. .war upon every interest of
Nation,State-and people. Everybody knows
this to be true. Then why can any intelli-
gent man lobject to the policy of prohibi-
tion '3
' The reason they give, and the only one is
that prohibition, wherever it has been tried,
has failed to diminish the evils of the traffic
to any appreciable extent. Politicians say
this: toleration of the liquor trafiic will pro.
mote the. interests of their party, they think.
Some Doctors of Divinity say this: prohibi-
tion is a reproof of their drinking habits. But
it is all false, whoever says it. In all the his
tory of prohibition in whatever country—
and it has a history of more than" thirty years
there has never transpired one incident
which could even give color to the assertion
that it had been a failure. On the contrary,
it has been and is an instrumentaliiy of great
good . everywhere. .
In England there are more tha_n fourteen
hundred parishes where the liquor traffic is
prohibited—and in every one of them, the re-
sult has been wonderful fer good. In Scot-
land and in Ireland, there are many localities.
in which the traffic has been forbidden by
law, with the same result. In all Scotland
and in all Ireland, except five large cities,the
grog-shops are suppressed on the Sunday,
with most beneficeut results, and at the last
session of Parliament, a Sunday prohibition
Bill for Wales was passed almost unanimous-
ly. The benefits of this policy for Ireland
and Scotland led to that, and now Sunday
prohibition for England is actively pushed.
At the last session of Parliament, also a res-
olution in favor of local option was passed by
a majority of forty-two, and Mr. Gladstone
has promised to bring a Bill embodying that
principle. In all English speaking countries.
there is a strong movement for this adoption
of the policy of prohibition to replace that of
license. ’,
The liquor traffic is war “against the
church, the library and the school—it is one
phase of the waflare between Heaven and
hell.” Charles Baxlon, a member of Parlia-
ment, said that. It is the “wholesale poison-
ing of the people; it drives themlto hell like
sheep.” John Wesley said that. “The liquor
traffic is the gigantic crime of crimes.” Sen-
ator Merrill of Maine, said that. Everybody
knows that all this is true. If this great sin
shame and crime he continued, let it be
against the law and in spite of it, and not es-
tablished and protected by law—as in those
States where it is licensed-

Household Hints.
Black linen thread should be kept wrapped
in paper or away from the light which rots
it. .
Wash muslins and calicoes that are liable
to fade in starch water. Brown linens should
be steeped and rinsed in hay water.
A simple and good thing for cleaning
nickled plated articles is made as follows:
Take half a cup of whiting, fill it with wa-
ter, put it in a bottle and add a teaspoonful
or a trifle more, of a ammonia.
One of the greatest helps in the kitchen is
washing or salsoda. If a strong solution is
kept in a bottle, and a little is used in cleans
ing tin or iron ware, it will more than reward
the housekeeper for her trouble. There is
nothing so nice for milk utensils.
/ There is a very simple method by which
dampness—and thus produce mold—may be
prevented in unoccupied apartments or in
houses at the seaside which are closed in
winter. Place in an openplate a quantity of
lime, which. will absorb the moisture. In
libraries this simple remedy is said to be very
efficacious.
To extract the fragrance of flowers, take
thin layers of cotton wool and dip them into
sweet oil and sprinkle a small quantity of fine
salt on the flowers, the fragrance of which
is to be extracted; then place in a jar a layer
of cotton and a layer of flowers until the jar
is full. Close the jar air tight and place in
the sun for fifteen days.

Drink Lemonade.
Lemonade is One of the best and safest.
drinks for any person whether in health or
not. It is suitable to all stomach diseases, is
excellent in siekhesa—in' case of jaundice,
gravel, liver complaints, inflammation of the
bowels and fevers. It is a specific against
worms and ski-n complaints. Lemon juice is
the best anti-scorbutic remedy kno‘wn. It
not only cures this disease, but prevents it.
Sailors make a daily use of it for this pur-
pose. The hands and nails are also kept
clean, white, soft, and supple, by the daily
use of lemon instead of soap. It also pre-
vents chilblains. Lemon is used in inter-
mittent fever, mixed with strongl hot, black
coffee,withont sugar. Neuralgia may be curd
'by rubbing the part affected with .a cut lem-
on. It is valuable also to cure warts and to
destroy dandruff on the head by rubbing the
roots of the hair with it. In fact, its uses
er: manifold, and the more we employ it ex-
ternally the 'better we shall find ourselves.
Rub your hands, head and gums with lemon
and drink lemonade in preference to all other
liquids. This is an old doctor's advice. Fol-
law it.-—Anon. .

The Inter- Ocean turns its lantern on a
small section of Chicago ahd thus records
the result of its observations: “Five hun-
dred liquor saloons, 200 houses of prostitu-
tion, 150 concert saloons, gambling houses
and pool rooms—align a region bounded by
Van Bureir,‘ Fourteenth, State and Clark
streets, five blocks one way and four the
other. In this territory it is estimated there
are 3,000 abandoned women, and the nightly
orgies of these maddened and desolate peo-
ple are attended by 12,000 young men, who
.it is calculated spend an average fully $100,-
‘000 weekly in the most depraved and degrad-
ing amusement.” '

Necessitatlng a Surgical Operation
~Lovlrg 'Morher Attempts to
Ilka pair of Shears from ‘Ol'
Child. ‘
PARENTS BE CAREFUL.
Domestic accidents are common to women.and
some of them are very serious. Mrs. Warner, of
So.Rondout, Ulslcr 00., N. Y., some weeks ago
attempted to take from her child a pair of shears
With which it was playing. A slight struggle on-
sued, in which the point of the shears entered
Mrs. Warner’s left eye, entirely destroying the
sight. Her family pllsiciun did what he could,
but intensely painful inflammation arose, which,
by sympathy, threatened the loss of the other
eye. Total blindness to a. woman having the care
of a houshold is an irretrievable calamity. In
this strait Mrs. W. applied to the well-known
and skillful surgeon, Dr. David Kennedy, of Ron~
dour; N.Y., who removed the injured eye by a
very successful operation, setting aside all dan-
ger of further harm to the sight of the other eye.
But owing to pain and mental distress, her sys-
tem needed a. tonic,a. restorative medicine. To.
do this work the Doctor prescribed “Kennedy‘s
Ifavontc Remedy,” which sustained its reprim-
tron apd laid a. sure foundation of health.
Dr. Kennedy’p "Favorite Remedy” rc-
movcs all impurities from the blood, regulates
the Liver and Kidneys. Cures Constipation. and
all disease and weaknesses peculiar to Females.

Porous Plasters.
Reasons “my they are Preferred to All
Other Porous Plastcrs or: External
" Remedies:
First.
Because _ they possess all the merit of the
strengthening porous plaster, and contain in ad-
dltloll thereto the newly discovered powerful and
active vegetable combination which acts with in-
creased rubel‘acicut, stimulating, sedative and
counter irritant effects.
Second .
Because they are a genuine pharmaceutical prep-
aration, and so recognigd by the profession.
Third.
Because they are the only plasters that relieve
pain at once.
Fourth.
Because they will positivel cnre diseases h‘
other remedies will not cvcn’relieve. w rch
Fifth.
Because over 5000 physicians and dru aists ha
voluntarily testified that they are supgeI-ior to iIl‘l
other plasters or medicines for external use,
Because the manufacturers have received the
only medals ever given for porous plasters.

Prof. Tait describes three forms of mir-
age. The first, and most common, is that
seen in the desert, where‘the sunlight is re-
fiected from the heated layer of air resting
upon the sand to the eye of the observer,and
irresistibly gives rise to the impression of a
reflecting surface of water at the point in the
desert from which the rays are projected.
A second form is that observed in the Arctic
regions, of ,which many beautiful illustra-
tions have been given by Scoresby. The
principal phenomenon is what is called
“looming” —distdut objects showing an ex-
travagant increase of vertical height without
alteration in breadth. Distant hammocks of
ice are thus magnified into immense towers
and pinnacles, and a ship 18 sometimes ab-
normally drawn out until it appears twelve
or fourteen times as high as it is long. The
celebrated feta. morg'amr of the Straits of
Messina is of this character. Books are seen
drawn up to ten or twelve times their height;
and houses, as well as human beings and
animals, appear in like exaggerated shape.
The most remarkable instance of this kind
of mirage was observed in 1798, when
from Hastings a portion of the French coast
forty or fifty miles away was seen as plainly
as though but a few miles distant, although
ordinarily hidden by the earth’s convexity.
The third and perhaps most extraordinary
form of mirage is that observed by Vince in
1799, in which a ship at sea showed three
distinct images—a lower and an upper one
in an upright position and an intermediate
one in which the object stood inverted.
Physicians of Rio Janeiro recommend the
oil of and-a, a Brazilian tree, as a substitute
for castor oil. It is pleasanter to take, and
the dose guialler.
An iron chess-hoard provided with mag-
netic chess-men is :1 Berlin novelty. The
small magnets concealed in the figures cause
them to adhere to the iron board and retain
their place in spite of considerable shocks,
such, for instance, as are received on ship-
board or on railroad trains.
Dr. Fleck, a Dresden chemist, attributes
the production of pimples and inflammation
on the forehead of some persons, in hot
Weather, to the presence of fat or fatty acids
in the leather lining of hats. By experiment
be has lately shown that the fat is contained
in all leathers, and, although small in quant-
ity, is sufficient to produce the result in ques
tion. To avoid the unpleasant effects he re.-
commends rubbing the greasy leather with
burnt magnesia.
A French Government vessel has recently
succeeded in dredging in the Bay of Biscay
at a depth of 17,000 feet, or three and one-
fifth miles. The animals found at that dis-
tance beneath the surface were numerous.
but of small size.
A novel application of the electric light is
intended to diminish the risk,of collision at
sea, The light, with a reflector, is placed on
a movable arm in such positio'n as to move
with the rudder, thus indicating by the di-
rection of its beam the course steered by the
vessel.
Logs and planks split at the ends because
the exposed surface dries faster than the in-
side. If muriaiic acid be saturated with lime
and applied to the ends like whitewash. the
chloride of calcium formed attracts moisture
and prevents splitting.
Herr Kepner, at Salzburg, in the Tyrol,
has observed that heating earths and rocks
cause them to become magnetic. With va-
rious specimens of baked and unbaked bricks
he has tested the accuracy of the ,observa-
tions, which is still further;confirmed by ex-
periments with several minerals by the two
other scientists. The magnetism of newly-
heated rocks appears to diminish somewhat
in time, but some specimens of slag, perhaps
thousands of years old, were ”had to be still
magnetic.
As the use of electricity becomes more
and more general, the great importance of
some method of storing the current for
future use becomes more widely appreciated
Since announcement of Faure’s electrical
accumulator some months ago, this subject
has been much studied, and several storage
batteries have been produced by eminent
electricians. The most promising apparatus
of this kind is said to be one just described
by Mr. Henry Sutton, of Australia, to the
British Royal Society. It appears, from in-
formation now at hand, that Mr. Sutton ob-
tained the best results with a negative elec-
trode of copper and a positive of amalgam-
ated lead—that is, lead coated with mercury.
These two elements are placed in a solution
of sulphate of copper. When a current of
electricity is passed through this cell the so-
lution is decomposed and metallic copper
deposited on the negative electrode, whilelthe
positvc is peroxsdized. ,When the battery
is being discharged the action is reversed,
the copper element being oxidized, and the
oxide combining with the acid again forms
sulphate of copper. As the copper deposited
in charging, the solution gradually loses its
blue color, being converted into sulphuric
acid. It is stated that Mr. Hutton will not
patent his discovery.

The Sky in l 882.
N. Y. Sun.
If 1881 was pre-eminently the astroslogers’
year owing to the great conjunction of J up-
iter and Saturn, upon which so many fright-
ful prophecies were based; 1882 will be, in a
similar sense, the astronomers’ year on ac-
count of the transit of Venus. The transit .
does not occur until December, but the as-
tronomcrs are already preparing for their ob-
servations of it. In fact, they began their
preparations more than twenty-five years
ago, so important is this event to astronomi-
cal science. By the transit of Venus is meant
the passage of that planet between the earth
and the sun so that the planet is seen against
the disk of the sun like a black dot. It owes
its importance to the fact that it furnishes,
perhaps the best means of measuring the dis-
tance between the earth and the sun, and
this distanca is the astronomer’s yard stick,
it ithout which he cannot get along. The more
accurately the sun’s distance is known the
more correct become other astronomical
measurements. Modern estimates of this dis-
tance have varied between 95,600,000 miles
and 91,000,000 miles. Since the transit of ‘
1874 it has been put at about 92,800,000 miles
but the astronomers think they are yet one or ‘
two hundred thousand miles out of the way
and this year they hope to out these limits of
error down very much. The results they
achieve must stand for more than a century
since there will not be another transit of Ve-
nus nntil 2004.
There will be the usual number of conjunc— '
tions of the moon with the various planets
this year. Although of no special value to
the astronomer, these conjunctions are inter-
esting and often beautiful phenomena, and
they serve to point out the planets to those
who otherwise might be unable to identify
the earth’s sister worlds among the stars.
There will be afew rather loose conjunctions
between some of the planets, and Jupiter,
Saturn, and Mars will be conspicuous in the
evening sky during the winter and the spring,
offering fine opportunities for observation to
those who possess telescopes.
The expected comet of 1812 has not yet
put in an appearance. As some astronomers
think that the last comet discovered in 1881
may be the long lost Lexell’s comet, ,which
nobody expected to see again after Jupiter
kicked it out as an intruder in his family of
moons. it may not be too much to hope that
the stupendous comet of 1154, which is now
more than twenty years overdue, will also
pay the sun another visit and make the night
again brilliant with the glories of its train.
The period of disturbance in the sun has
not yet reached its height, and the great cen-
tral luminary may be expected to furnish in-
teresting scenes for those who delight to gaze
through telescopes at the wonderful things
that exist outside the earth.
