USELESS WEAPONS.
It was at El Teb thathas fllpt stmck
' with the inferior quality of the English
* bayonet and sword bayonet. ‘ At Tnmai,
in the rush and scurry. it was put to a
severer test than anywhere else in the
‘ Soudan. In that battle the Hadden-
downs, as they rushed’out of their grass
cover with their Short spears, fairly
pitched themselves upon. the weapons of
our Black Watch and Sixty-fifth. The
triangular bayonet ofttimes bent and
twisted. On the whole, however, it
stood the test better than the sword bay-
onet. Like the sword bayonet, it'often
bent like hoop iron when a thrust was
made, if a bone interposed, and became
cork-screwed in the struggle.
It has two serious drawbacks, not so
observable in the sword bayonet. The
wound it makes is slight, so that a fanati-
cal .savage or infuriated man requires
several thrusts before he is placedlwra
do annbat, giving him a chance to run
amuek among civilized troops. . In the
second place, the triangular bayonet,
when thrust violently goes too far, and
there is great difficulty in freeing it. At
Tamai a stalwart soldier hooked his Op»
ponent in such a manner that he hm
draw the body twenty yards, as we
retreating, before liberating his weapon.
This was the most conspicious instance
of the kind I saw, but it was by no
means the only one.
The sword bayonet has weight without
breadth, and, with the outlass, frequent-
ly lacks temper. I have seen a blue
iacket’s cutlass sword bayonet at Tamal,
aswell as some in the battles up the
Nile, bend into a semicircle and remain
in that shape, unfitting it for a second
“point." The wait was put to‘ did not
justify the giving way of the weapon.
The fact that it did not regain its form
further proved that the quality of the
blade was of the poorest. It would have
gone the same way had it been driven
awkwardly into a sack of flour.
There'can be no real difficulty with
our mechanics and workshops in procur-
ing bayonets that will bear the brunt of
rough usage in a campaign. What I
have said of the bad quality of the cut-
lass applies equally to the sword bay-
onet. Many a soldier at Abu Klea saw
with dismay his bayonet rendered use-
less at the moment when there was no-
chance to lead his rifle, and when he
most stood in need of its services There
also I saw sword bayonets bend and twist
with the facility of soft iron rather than
steel. After that fight you might have
noticed brawny foot guardsmen, hereu-
lean life guardsmen, and the deft fighters
of the mounted infantry, all of whom
had stood shoulder to shoulder in the
square, straightening 'their bayonets
across their knees or under foot. Others
there were who discarded their distorted
weapons and picked up some dead com-
rade‘s from the field.
W
SOlVIE FAhIOUS OLD MAIDS. ,
Elizabeth of England was one of the
most illustrious of modern sovereigns.
Her rule over Great Britain certainly
comprises the most brilliant literary age
of the English-speaking people.» Hel-
political acumen was certainly put to as
severe tests as that of any other ruler the
world ever saw. Maria Edgeworth was
an old maid. It was this woman's writ-
ings that first suggested the thought of
writing similiarly to Sir Walter Scott.
Her brain might well be called the
mother of the Waverly novels. Jane
Porter lived and died an old maid. The
children of her busy brain were “ Thad-
deus of Warsaw ” 31nd “The Scottish
Chiefs,” which have moved the hearts of
millions with excitement and tears.
J oanna Baillie, poet and play-writer was
“one of ’em.” Florence Nightingale,
most gracious lady, heroine of Inker-
mann and Balaklava hospitals, has to the
present written “Miss” before her name.
The man who should marry her might
well crave to take the name of Nightin-
gale. Sister Dora, the brave spirit of
English pest-housas, whose story is as a
helpful evangel, was the bride of the
world’s sorrow only, And then what
names could the writer and reader add
of those whom the great world may not
know but we know, and_the little world
of the village, the church, the family
know and prize beyond allworldsl
PRONUNCIATION AND CHARACTER.
The pronunciation of English is often
regarded as a touchstone which reveals
whether a person is well or ill bred, and
to a certain extent the observation is
undoubtedly true. Pronunciation is
one of the outward and visible signs
which most quickly betrays the lack of
culture, and which, although the speaker
may wear good clothes, betrays also the
presence of vulgarity. But there are
two classes of persons who can not be
set down as either vulgar or uncultured,
yet who, at the same time, entertain
radically different views concerning the
pronunciation of numerous English
words. One of these persons occupies
what he is pleased to call a common-
sense position, which may be explained
as follows: A word in common use is
popularly pronounced contrary to the
method given by a majority of the lexi-
, cographers, yet such pronunciation has
the sanction of one or two good authori-
ties, as allowable, although perhaps not
preferable. One common-sense man
says “ there is authority for the popular
pronunciation, and I propose to adopt it
rather than make myself conspicuous by
speaking differently from ninety-nine
out of a hundred of my countrymen.”
The person who represents the other
class is a strict purist. The one person
accommodates himself to popular usage
whenever he can find reasonably good
authority for doing so; the other is un-
bending, and claims that common use
has no right to'acknowledgment, but
that what he considers the, best must
always rule.
W
THE DOLLAR DIDN’T GET AWAY.
It seemed to be the general opinion
that the Southern negro ,was naturally
lightfingered, but all at once a drummer
for a Philadelphia saddlery house threw
away his cigar stub and said :
“Gentlemen, here is a silver dollar.
I’ll bet it can be left on the table in my
room up stairs for twenty-four hours
and no one willeremove i ."
A gentleman from Macon said he
would like to wager $5 on that, and the
terms were soon settled. It was agreed
that the drummer should go to his room
and lay the dollar on the table, and if it
was there at the same hour next day the
wager was his. Several marked the coin
and recorded the date, and the drummer
was trusted to leave it as agreed.
Next day, at the same hour, a com-
mittee of three visited the room. everal
colored people had been in and out,
while engaged in their vocatiéns, but
the dollar was there. 5
“Gentlemen, is the negro honest or is ;
he not?" queried the drummer, as he I
pointed to the coin. .
We advanced to make sure it was I
the one. There was no mistake. The ;
date—187%was there ;~ the nicks in the E
edge were there, but the drummer had i
taken it to a machinist to haven hole ?
drilled through it, and had then screwed i'
it down to the table. It was there so
tight and fast that only a heavy screw. i
driver could loosen it. ' ,
“I have won," modestly exclaimed .
the drummer. .

St. Petersbnrg was feund in 1703. and
it was a leading idea in the mind of
Peter the Great that it was to be a sea-
port. For this he selected a site on the
shores of the Baltic. Although this has
always been perfectly well understood,
it has never been fully realized till the
present day. Cronstadt has been the
ing over nine or ten feet of water could
float over the barlof the mouth of the
Nova and reach the capital; all vessels
requiring a greater depth of water than
this had to deliver their cargoes at Cron-
stadt. The goods were then put into
:barges,‘ which were either poled or
. tugged up to St. Petersburg. All com-
mercial operations were carried ‘on at a
great disadvantage under such almode
of operations. This will be best under-
stood by stating that goods must the
present day be sent from London or
~Hull in about a week, but the tranship-
ment of them at Cronstadt, with the
short but slow passage to St. Petersburg.
the delivery there, where there has
never been a proper harbor—theme oper-
ations, to which has to be added a
highly-developed system of custom
house ofiicialism, with all its forms to be
atténded to, usually occupied as much
as three weeks, at times even more.
Often the barges. which are large and “-
unmanagcable, get aground or sink with,
their freight in the Gulf of Finland.
Such a condition of things made con-
tracts almost an‘impossibility, and the
commercial prosperity and advancement
of the capital has been much retarded.
This will now be changed: sewgoing
vessels of almost any size will now be
able in the future to proceed direct to
St. Pelfisburg by the new canal. at the
end of which docks have also been con-
structed and connected with the railways. .
All the grievous delays of the past will
be thus avoided. Cronstadt is to re-
main exclusively a port for'the 'naval
marine. It will henceforth be the Ports-
mouth Of Russia.
This canal, which has just been opened
between St. Petersburg and Cronstadt,
may be said to have put the last finishing
touch to the great design which Peter
the Great had contemplated for the cape
ital. of the Russian Empire. The com-
pletion of the whole has beenslow—
much more so than would have been the
case in Western lands—still it is alt-last
realized

MANUFACTURE OF INDIAN GRAVE
So determined, indeed, are some of
these fabricators of frauds, that the fol-
lowing incident is worthy of being pub-
lished, to show .the ingenuity they
exercise in their peculiar culling. To
discover an Indian grave is, of course. a
red-letter day for archaeologist. New,
Indian graves are manufactured to order,
it would appear. At least the following
recently occurred in New Jersey: A
Philadelphia Flint Jack secured a half~
decayed skeleton from a Potter’s field in
the vicinity, and placed it in a shallow
excavation on the wasting bank of a
creek in New Jersey, where Indain relics
were frequently found. With it he
make, a steatite carving of an eagle's
head and beads; with these were thrown
numbers of genuine arrow heads and
fragments of pottery. The earth was
blackenedwithpowderedcharcoul. This
“ plant" was made in November, and. in
the following March, during the preval-
ence of high waters and local fresheis,
he announced toan enthusiastic collector
that he knew the location of an Indian
grave, and offered to take him thither
for $50, the money. to be paid if the
search proved successful, which of course
it did.
delphia pauper passed through several
craniologists’ hands, and was gravely to-
marked upon as of unusual interest, as
it was a marked dolidzooqlhalfc skull,
whereas the Delaware Indians were
brachycephalic!

Painstaking people, who know next to

in sewing ' out typographic errors in
newspapers, periodicals and books, the
detection of a blunder, in their own
estimation, putting a premium on indi-
vidual intelligence—co nfemng' a privi-
lege of disparagmg' printers. Men of
intelllgen' 00, who write well but .not
legibly, never tire of pointing out mis-
takes'of printers, and the over-sights of
proof renders. These self—constituted
censors of typography may find food for.
wholesome reflection in the fact that
inst client one hundred years ago a
number of professors in the Edinburgh
University undertook the publication of
a book which should be a perfect speci-
men of typographic accuracy. Every
conceivable precaution was taken to
preventerrors of the types. Six experi-
enced proof readers were employed, who
devoted hours to the reading of each
page. After their careful task was com-
pleted: each page was posted in the hall
of the nyivorsity. with a notice that £50
would be paid to any person who should
succeed in discovering an error. Every
page remained thus publicly exposed
for two'wecks before being returned to
the printing office. The projectors of
the work felt confident‘that the object
so diligently striven for had been at
toin'ed. Great was the disoomfiturc of
the learned men when, on the work
being issued, several errors Were found,

Both in Italy and other countries the
archaic images of the deities were
painted red, and the traditional practice
was, in some cases, long continued. It
ha been said that this practice was
intended to please “ the color sense,"
by which is meant that these images

is not likely, and the true explanation is
allotthccolor red was sacred. All pris-

traced ultimately to two origins. They
j are. in difi‘brent disguises, the worship
of the sun and the worship of humanity.
Red became, therefore, an exceptionally
odious color when the ascetic temper
gained possession of religion. The
bother of the Wisdom of-Solomon be-
trays a profound antipathy in the fol-
’ lowing: “Or made it like some vile
boast. laying, it over with vermilion and
with pint oolorirlg’it red, and covering
every spot therein.” The coating of
vermilion was plainly offensive to him,
