Motiier Stewart, the temperance ad vocate, obtained a public reception in Dundee, Scotland, on April 10, ami was presented with an address expressive of the appreciation entertained there for her philanthropic labors. There was a very larie audience, and Mrs. Stewart was cordially received. Watts Memorial Hall, erected to the memory of Dr. Isaac Watts in South ampton, England, was dedicated a few days ago. It comprises a block of school buildings covering the site of Dr. Watts's garden, and standing near the chapel in which his first hymn was sung. The building cost about $30,000. The old tree which stood on Brattle-st., in Cambridge, Mass., and which Mr. Longfellow mentions in "The Village Blacksmith" as the "spreading chestnut tree," was cut down a few days ago. Many souvenirs were secured by relic hunters, and a chair will be made from the wood and presented to 31 r. Long fellow. Mr. Thomas Carlyle has never been counted among the English admirers of this country, and his admiration has not improved of late. He is said to have made the following remark within the hearing of Mr. Conway: "America is a great country, but no system can last w-hich would give Jesus and Judas pre ciiely the same vote on public affairs." The debut of Anna Dickinson upon the dramatic stage, in her own play, 'A Crown of Thorns," was made recently at the Globe Theatre, Boston, before the largest audience ever in the building. The play is said to have much dramatic scope, and Miss Dickinson's delineation of the character of Anne Bjleyii m ulc a favorable impression. She was received with much enthusiasm and a profusion of floral offerings. Mr. Robert C. Wintiirop, the Presi dent of the Washington Monument Association, proposes that the design shall no longer comprehend the temple or pantheon which forms a part of the original plan, but shall be a simple shaft or obelisk, and that from time to time subscriptions shall be asked until a fund is accumulated sufficient to carry the monument up to a height of three hun dred feet. This proposal has been adopted by the Association. Do.M Pedro is more royalty to the square inch than has visited these shores for some time, being 6 feet 3 inches iu height. His full name is not one to be as easily remembered as the multiplica tion table, although nearly as long. We give it with other interesting facts, here with: Dom Pedro II. de'Alcantara, Em peror of Brazil, was born in Rio de Janeiro on Dec. 4y lo-la. lie is a scion, in the direct male line, of the House of Braganza, the female line of which is ruling over Portugal. In addition to Kentucky's fine monu ment in Lexington Cemetery to her illus trious statesman, Henry Clay, completed in 18G0 at a cost of $50,000, a fine statue of her great journalist, poet and politi cian, George D. Prentice, was lately un veiled at Louisville. The old journalist is buried at Cave Hill Cemetery, in the vicinity of Louisville, with a small Gre cian canopy resting on four columns above his grave, with an urn in the centre, and on the top a lyre with a broken string. Not every city thus commemorates her gifted men. Yacob. Yacob was the name of an Arab boy in the Oriental city of Cairo. He was joor, and, like most of the poor boys of that city, his chief ambition was to own a donkey and hire him out to the travel ers to go to the pyramids and other places of interest in the neigh iiorliot hi oi v airo. As it was, he was only the driver of an other man's donkev; that is, when the animal was mounted by the traveler, he ran behind, poking the quadruped with a sharp stick to keep him in a brisk trot. One day, while Yacob was standing in front of Shepherd's Hotel in Cairo, will ing he had a donkey of his own, an Eng lish traveler on the veranda beckoned to him and asked him why he looked so wistful, and Yacob answered that he was unhappy because he had no donkey. And when the Englishman heard his storv. he calUd his servant and told him to bring up MaftSh, which was an old sleepy donkey. Then he said to Yacob: "Would you be happy if you owned that donkey, my lad J" "Oh, master, ! would be happy with any donkey!" said Yacob. "Then." said the Englishman, "he is yours I make him a present to you." When he said this, the other travelers gathered around, with jmiles on their fates, lor it appeared that the English man was a man much given to nuking fun. He told Yacob to get on the don key and ride him up and down in front f the hotel a few times, to show his gait. Yacob got astride of him, ami found that he was stiff m the legs and moved slow ly, notwithstanding the sharp pokes he gave him with his stick. "I shall give the donkey a name that will draw custom for you," said the Eng lishman as the lad rode up to the ve randa. Yacob was much pleased that his bene factor should give the donkey a name, for he had seen some ol his companions w ho hired their donkeys more easily than others, on account ot fortunate names given them by travelers. "I shall be much glad to call him what my master pleases," said Yacob. "Then his name shall be Lightning," said the Englishman, and the other trav elers laughed. Yacob did not know what Lightning meant, and he continued to call his don key by that name after the Englishman went awav. He did not have much dif ficulty in hiring his donkey; but when the travelers started on their journey, they told lacob he was a humbug, and that he had imposed on them wth Ins animal. So that they only kept Light ning for a few minutes, aad the same peo ple never hired him twice. One day, as he led his old donkey to ward the hotel veranda, after being called a little humbug by an angry traveler, who refused to pay him for hire for half an hour, he wassjtokeu to .by a fat man in a long black coat, who told him he ought to call his donkey Slow-coach. After that Yacob called him Slow coach, not knowing any more aIout the name than he did about Lightning. But this change of name, instead of mending matters, made them worse. Iu short, no one would hire his donkey any more on any couditioti, and Yacob and Slow coach were a rueful pair, as they stood idly before the hotel. One day, as he stood thus, the Prince of Wales came out from the veranda (the Prince was then on his way to the East Indies), mounted Slow-coach and rode him two or three yards, and then got off and took another donkey, thereupon Yacob bemoaned his bad luck in hearing of an American sitting in a tilted chair on the veranda. "Yacob," said the American, "your donkey shall be hired as much as any other, but hereafter his name must be the Prince of Wales." The American had a certificate drawn up and sworn to before the American Con sul in Cairo, to show that the Prince of Wales had, without any doubt, mounted Yacob's donkey ; and w hen the lad wanted to hire the animal to any man, woman or child from England, all he had to do was to how this certificate, and they straightway engaged him, notwithstand ing his moping gate and stiff legs. They engaged him for whole days, fondled him, and begged Yacob not to poke him up too sharp from behind. They fed him with whatever he would eat, and the only drawback to the donkey's pleasant life was that his tail was plucked a good deal for mementos. Yucob said, and says still, that the luckiest day of his life was when he was spoken to by the American gentleman in a tilte I chair." Albert Rhodes in tst. 2ic7toia.i for May. Aristocratic. Lettie was our "help" last summer in the country a good girl, but not very bright. In the busiest part of the season she went "a visiting" her folks at Hope, notwithstanding am epi demic was prevalent there. On her re turn we asked how she enjoyed herself. She replied, "Never had such a nice time never. Why, we had a funeral every day, and sometimes two. Hardly had time to eat and wash dishes." On another occasiou some city friends were visiting us. One of the ladies re mained in the dining-room when Lettie sat dow n to her tea. Lettie commenced with sponge cake, followed with pound cake, and had nearly finished the fruit cake when the lady left. No sooner was she gone than Lettie exclaimed: "Well, I never was so glad to see any one's back." "Why, Lettie?" "Because, I'm jist fjoirjed with cake." "Why, then, didn't you eat something else?" "Do you think," replied that child of nature, "that I would let them stuck-up city folks see me eat biscuit? Not much I" Father Tom Bcrke is one of the sim plest, kindest-hearted men in the world, and by kith and kin is almost worshipped. To his mother, of whom he is exceeding ly fond, he said one day: "Mother darling, wouldn't you like to go and hear my lecture to-night? You've never heard it." "Yes, my son, I think I'll go." After the lecture Father Burke came home, and, after giving her a kiss, sai 1 : "What did you think of iti" "I didn't hear it, my son." "Aud why not, darling?" ''Because the crowd was so great I couldn't get in." "Ah, mother dear, wasn't that too bad? Just to think of it! Why, if it hadn't been for you, dear, I wouldn't have been there myself." It is agreed by doctors that American women live longer than those of any other country. They are leaner and wirier, and of late years have worn some thing like sensible garments, ofL which the most sensible are thick-soled boots. As for the hat, there is not much to say on that head. Neva York Mail. SAN FRANCISCO MARKET. Notwithstanding the exceedingly bright prospett of immense crop yields of every description, there is uo denying the fact of marked depression iu trade. To what cause this U to tu attributed we are -unable to de. terroine, except, perhaps, the anticipations of the want of the country were on so large a scale as to be unwarranted and unreason, able. Money. eomes in slowly from the in terior, but in the city it is abundant and can be had at reasonable rates of interest for all legitimate business transactions. Tonnage in our harbor is light and but little in de. mand as yet. The amount on the way to this port aggregates nearly .40,000 tons, accord ing to the most reliable reports. Charters have been effected for nearly 70,000 tons, to carry the new crop, the range being from JU$ to .i 7s od to the United Kingdom. We note a steady decline in the price of wheat in the English market. This fact, to gether w ith the prospect of an estimated sur plus of 800,000 tons, for which a market has to be found, has had the effect of materially re ducing prices in this market, as will be seen by our quotations given below, and holders are now making a decided effort to dispose entirely of the balance of the old crop before the harvest of the new commences. Flour lias also declined in sympathy with wheat, though not in the same proportion; the demand for export is only moderate. Barley is lower. Oats are weaker with a light di'tnand. live is In demand at good figures, l.iukvvlieut. ts scarce unci wanted, lorn is in large stock and prices steadily decline with but a mouerate demand. WHEAT. there is a disposition to work otf the old crop at any price to give room for the new, which is now nearly ready for har vest. Consequently, offerings are large and prices rule exceedingly low, as the English market offers uo inducement to shippers; small lots of choice milling would bring fair prices iu comparison to ordinary shipping qualities, t'resent quotations are as follows: l 50cjt I 6;; choice lots for milling range from l 70(Z$l 75.

We take pleasure in railing the attention of our readers to the Ventura Rock Soap, the advertisement of which will be found in another column. This article is uot a soap in the common acceptation of the word, but a natural production of the earth, that is su perior in every respect to any soap yet in vented. It is but six months since the Kock Soap Com pan v was organized, vet in that short time tire Rock Soap has tiecome very popular wherever it ha been used. We have tried it and find it superior to any toilet soap we have ever used. It leaves the skin per fectly fresh and pure, and free from any soapy smell. It cleanses silver, brass, tin or copper ware, like a charm, and that, too. without scouring, aud leaves a beautiful pol ish. It readily removes from the hands axle grease or oil of any kind. In short, it com bines in one all of the gKd qualities of a tirst class soap, metallic polish, grease ex tractor, and d ntifrice, and at less than one half the usual prices paid for these articles. This may sound extravagant, but this article is really a genuine one and will do all that is claimed for it. Send for a sample and try it, aud you will be convinced. "O wad some power the gilt to gi'e us, To see oursel's as ithers see us." Behold that pale, emaciated figure, with downcast eye, like some criminal about to meet her fate! See that nervous, distrustful look, as she walks along with a slow and unsteady step. The pink h is left her checks and the cherry her lips. The mice sparkling, dancing eyes are now dull and expression less. The once warm, dimpled hands are now thin and cold. Her beauty has fled. What has wrought this wondrous change?

Again, many Female Diseases, if properly treated, might be arrested in their course, and there by prove of short duration. They should not be left to an inexperienced physician who does not understand their nature, and is, therefore, incmclent to treat them. The iuiKrtance of attending to Female Dis eases iu their earliest stages cannot be too strongly urged.
