'I he population of the entire country has increised 175 per cent, iu the last twenty iuars, while that of the United States iu the same period of time has in- creased only 79 per cent. A LADY in Tours, France, refused to pay for a corset which did not tit and was taken to court by the coraetiere. The jadge modestly &aid that he woald not know whether the corset littedor not, even if he saw it tried on, and that he was unable to decide the case, and that the parties must appeal to another arbitrator. A St. Fktkusei-iuj correspondent says that the actuil C^ar of Russia, the man whose order is irrevocable, is not .Vleiander III., but Lieut. -Gen. Gresser. the head ot the palace, and a member of the Privy Council. He is between 40 and to years of age, is a soldier by profession and has been decorated m»i:v times for gallantrv on the field. TuE most sensational result of the revival in progress at Parkersburg is the conversion of Hon. C. T. Caldwell, an avowed infidel, who haa boen named the Ingers:)ll of the West Virtjinia bar. His conversion is so thorough that he has de- cided to abandon his lucrative practice and enter the ministry of the Methodist Lpisoo- pal Church. J. \V. Wats.n, to whom the authorship of •• Beautiful Snow " is most generally ascribed, is a tail, straight man of 70. who is often seen about the streets of New York. He is a novelist as well as a writer of verses, and much of his matter is seeu in the periodicals, but his income from his writ- ings is not large. Mr. Watson claims to be the inventor of roller skates. Mis.-; Amklie Kivts, the Virginia author- ess, lives in practical seclusion on her father's lar-;e farm near Cobham, ia Albe- marle county, Va. She is -3 years old, tall, slender aiiu t:racefal, a perfect blonde and very pretty. In addition to herlit«rary talent she is somewhat of an artist, and spends a t:reat part of her time in her studio. She is ptssionately fond of horses and dogs. Kevu Ai'MiiuL HiN! AJE, the officer com- manding ttie British Pacific station, is earning the epithet of *â-  Sir Joseph Porter." He has forbidden any officer or man to walk on the poop of the dagship while he is there, and insists on the crew uncover- ing their heads as long as be is on deck. He also retiuires his officers to wear white kid gloves at divisions on Sundays, and to have their frock coats and tunics buttoned on all occasions. TiiK French astronomers are making wonderful strides in celestial discoverT^ thanks to the hypersensitive pistes which modern photography has placed at their service. The photographer's plate is in- finitely more sensitive than the retina of the human eye- One part of the heavens has just been photo^jraphed where only 150 stars had bevu previously known. The plate shows no fewer than ^,000, all suffi- ciently distinct. Fr.iNiis MvKriiv, the temperance advo- cate, wants a law passed making it a crime for a man to treat or be treated. Upon this subject Mr. Murphy said in Hunalo last week : °° It is an awful thing tor a man to say no when he has not been weaned. Look at the effect on a baby that has been on the bottle for two years when you undertake to wean it. What, thmk yon, must it bo with a man who has be^n on a bottle for twenty years .' " M.iKu MiTciiEu., the celebrated pro- fessor of astronomy at Vassar College, is 70 years old. She is the discoverer of eight comets, the discovery of one of which gained her a gold medal from the King of Denmark, and it is said that when she was a girl of 11 she made an accurate record of a lunar eclipse. She has received the degret' of LL. V. from three different institutions of learning. A KovKLTv in use by many ladies in the States this cold weather is the " Kairo," or Japanese hand warmer. It is an oblong, slightly curved bo.\ of sheet copper, covere^l with pretty chint.-, or silk, and heate^t by ignit^ charcoal, specially prepartsi for the purpose. The chilrcoal comes in neat rolls, each of which will burn live hours, producing a temperature of l'>0 degrees and warming one nicely. The "Kairo " costs a dollar and is sold in drug stores. In Japan it is useil for meilicsl purposes, just as we apply poultices or hot fomenta- tions. A M'.n kind of glass has been invented iu Sweden. It contains no fewer than four- teen substances, whereas the common kind of glass contains only six. Phosphorous and borax are included, and they are not to bo found in any other glass. The result is, according to those who believe in the new invention, that whereas the highest power of an old f ashionetl microscopic lens reveals only the one-four-hundred-thoHsandth part of an inch, this new glass will enable us to distinguish one twohundre»l-and four- million-seven-hundred-thousandth part of an inch. Stupendous â€" but, thcji, who on earth wants to have a look at the l-'iO4,70O, â-  OtWth part of an inch ? The German inhabitants of the Baltic are mostly Lutherans. The determination of the Uusaiau Government seems to be to compel religious conformity, and the Minis- ter of the Interior haa been authori/.eil to susiiend or banish Lutheran pastors with- out any judicial inquiry. Some fifty preachers in l.ivonia have bet>M warneil and as many in C'ourland. In Ksthonia several pastors' wives have been marked out for punishment for holding missionary meetings. It ia Iielieveti that if the Km- jwror was aware of the real conditions » more humane p^iUcy would be adopted, but u.niteil action of the i^eople is rendereil im- jvssible, and any attempt to appeal would only aggravate tlie evil. SoMK tinte ago an engineer on the Little Miami Bailroad, Ohio, was suspended be- cause, after having been examined by Ur. Clark, lie was found to be quite deaf. The engineer claimed at the time that be could heat everything while running his engine, bat the doctor found that in a still room he could not hear ordinary conversation a foot away. The doctor thon^ht he would test the case, and madeanam'oer of experiments with him on engines. The result was that the doctor found the engineer not only tell- ing the truth in ret;ard to the matter, but also that the deaf man could bear low remarks and whispers on a moving engine, that even Dr. Clark's keen ear failed to catch. The engineer was reinstated. The women will shortly abandon those furry caterpillars they wear around their necks, and man's for-tiued overcoat with its Russian collar and cxiSt will disappear into its camphor chest. It is a pity that furs which are alike becoming to the thick and the thin, the tali and the short, cannot be perpetaally with as, and that the f.rsi warm day should make th-.m oppressive. Some one has said woman is always will, ing to suffer if she can be beautiful, but she rarely shows how ungrateful she can be as at this time of year when one of her chief embellishments ia thrown aside. She does not desire "to saffer " exactly to the degree of overheating a well made-np com- plexion, and she donbtless thinks that her tinted parasol, with other airy aonfections from the haberdashers, will compensate for the soft, dark frame about her face. Per- haps so. But it is with regret that ele- gantes, and those who understand the art of being well-dressed, find the time ap- proaching when their most becoming por- tion of attire must seek an anti-moth seclusion. Try to make the best of it, mesdsmes ' YorNJ ladies whose o^mplexions show the ravages of the late hours of the first season and who wish to restore their skin to its prestine debutante freshness are, writes a Washington correspondent, using " le niastiue da mari." which Frenchwomen have employed since the days of la Keine Margot, who invented this faded com- plexion's sweet restorer. They take the white of one egg beaten in sufficient rose water to make a cream ; to this they add one gramme of alam and one of sweet almond oil. All of which is beaten together until a paste is formed, white and sweet, smelling. Then taking a piece of thick muslin they cut holes in such a way that it rudely resembles a maskâ€" two for eyes, a small one for nostrils, the third a little larger for the mouth. The paste is spread thickly and carefully over this. Poor tapes are fastened to itâ€" two at the brow and two at the chinâ€" and when the young woman goes to bed this is tied on her face and re- mains there all night. In the morning she washes this oif carefully with a soft sponge and tepid water, following it by another bath or water running cold from the faucet, and then she rubs her face vigorously with a soft towel and emerges with the com- plexion of sixteen. But she looks decidedly funny at night when she has her mask on, which resembles a ponltice more than any. thing else. There is also a rale which goes with this rmnjui du rrusri which says that to htve a beautiful skin a woman must take enough exercise at least once in every twenty-four hours to be thrown into a thorough glow. Tur.EE Philadelphia fiends who used chrome yellow in making buns have been sentences! to the penitentiary, two of them for six months each and the third one for nine months, the judge expressing his sor row that the statute aid not permit him to mete out punishment adequate to the offence. The l>nches8 of Hamilton, wife of the Premier Peer of Scotland, and sister-in- law to Lady Mandeville, has opened a retail butchsr shop at Ipswich, iu the neighborhood of the White Horse Inn immortalized by Pickwick, and is, accord- ing to latest reports, crowded with orders. AiTiiovoii the cheapest rate for which board can be got iu the big new hotel in Florida is SS a day, and an extra particular bridegroom can obtain a bridal suite there at SJ.OOO a week, the hotel was packed on the first of the month. The owner talks of putting up just such another house in New York for the exaction ot just such gilt- edgevl prices, and thinks there will be money in it. NE\r Sunday will be the eighteenth anni- versary of the prcclamation ol the com mune. The socialists, anarchists and communists of New York are preparing to celebrate it with gusto galore. A blood and thunder drama will be presented by the Social Revolutionary Club on Saturday night, tc be followed by a ball anvi a great demonstration to be held in flarendon UaU. The soft maple has not been satisfactory as a shade tree for street or lawn, and for this n-asou has been condemned and tabooed by horticultural writers, and its value as a timber tree has been lost sight ot. When closely plantcil in a grove the tendency to split or break is overcome. It is easy of propagation, transplants well grows rapidly, and is one of the best trees, for fuel. BissweHU- may be enormously compressed after which it may be steameil and ex- panded to its original volume. Advantage has been taken of this principle iu the manufacture ot ceftaiu kinds of moldi The portions of the woovl to be left in relief are first compressed or pusheii down by suitable dies below the general level of the board, then the board is planed down to a level surface, and afterward steamed. The compressed portions of the board are expanded by the steam so that they stand out in relief. The iniluenoe of the moon upon vegeta tion is an interesting problem awaiting solution. A recent writer upon the subject mentions that wood-cutters in Cape Colony and India insist that timber is full ot sap and until to be cut at full moon. .Vnother observation of lunar influence in Cape Colony is the rapid spoiling of meats and other "provisions when exposed to moon light, though this may be due to the fact that the light serves as a guide to insects Ax o.\traorviinary incident is reported from Edinburgh iit connection witlt the trial of the Lewis crofters. One of the Crown witnesses named Ponald Macleod had never before been absent from Lewis, and Ins being brought to Kdinburgh seems to have deranged his mind. C)n Tuesilay he beha vetl as it saliering from hydrophobia, and on Wednesday morning he was brought into court howling like a dog. On the doctor's certificate of insanity he was sent to an asylum. Si^iiE time ago it was announced that human footprints in rocks had been dis- covered in America. At last week's mett- ing of the Victoria Institute in London, a report, with photograph, from one ot its geological members resident in the district, was read, stating that researches showed them to be imprinted in anciently deposited lava, and in some cases the imprints were those ot people wearing curiously made sandals or moccasins. A Bosio.N theatrical manager began an advertisement in the Sunday papers with the words ; "A call for UiO women to sew on buttons dislocated by liughter.' To his surprise he to and the theatre lobby filled the next morning with women who took the announcement seriously and wanted a job. He appeased tiiem as well as he could by distributing among them tickets to his per- formance. This, the Bunalo c'.mr:^r says, 13 not nearly as nice a story as the one about the little girl who found as the clos- ing sentence in one of the tales of the Brothers Grimm : "And all who do not be- hsve th.i must pay a dollar. " Whereupon she called one morning upon Jacob Grimm and proffered her one dollar in the most matter of fact way to the astonished story- teller. Miss Cok.i BiCKtrs, who compelled a prominent Kockford, 111., physician to print an abject apology for slandering her, has received many letters of admiration and offers of marriage. Cora's picture repre- sents a duffy-haired girl with pleasing and regular features- A farmer rear Huron, Dak., who says he has as good a farm as there is in the territory, writes that he wishes to tell her how much he admires her •â-  for the way you beat that doctor who abused you.' and that â- â-  I: madd me ful of luv for you," and if sha â- x:ll marry him he will come on the neit train.

Lord Stanley of Pres: n, the new Gov. emor-General. is a Past Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge of England, and is re- ported as taking an active interest in Masonic affairs.

No. 'iO'.'a, on Thirsday night last. Four candidates presente\l themselves for degrees â€" two for the first, one for the sec- ond, and the other for the thirdâ€" and every one of them were members of the medical profession of this city. Indeed, had it not been for an Inopportune call, a fifth woifld also have been in attendance for his third degree.

Mr. Pridgins, an old and respectable preacher, has stiddetily decided to preach his own funeral sermon, and has set for the day the second Sunday in April, and the place a little church a fev miles from Hi^ Shoals. Mr. PridginB has ordered his son to make him a coffin, which he dire-cis mtJB* be perfectly plain and locked with a pad- lock. He says the cofiin will be placed by his side in "the church, and there, ia ika presence of his friends and family, who are re-iuested to wear mcoming. he will tell of his life and pay suitable tribute to his own memory. The news has spread rapidly over the stirrouading coonlies, and it ia thought that the hltle church will not be able to hold the congregation. Mr. Prid- gins is though: by some to be very eccentric, but is considered by his neighbors one of the smartest men m the county. He haa been a minister of the gospel for many years and is extremely popular in his neighborhood. His mmd is perfectly clear on all subjects, and be is unosnaily well informed for a country preacher. He de- sires that the press reporters be present at the f'ineral to occupy setts in the amen corner.
