ful consideration of his labors. He
promptly returned it, saying he went
among them for the love of it and not for
the money."
Koijert Barnwell Uhett, of South
Carolina, died in St. James Parish, La.,

ing a liberal education, he adopted the
profession of the law. He will be re
membered as the man who first advocated
on the lloor of Congress a dissolution of
the Union. He was a prominent mem
ber of the Confederate Congress, and
since the war has lived on a retired plan
tation in Louisiana.
Bisnop Janes. The Methodists have
met with agrcat loss in the death of Bishop
Janes. He was one of the niost industri
ous and popular of the bishops, singularly
modest ami unpretentious. He has given
the church fifty years of earnest and un
npialed labor. He was always ready for
any service, any where, at any time, "in
labors abundant, in work oft." Very
early in his ministry he bought a
wild farm among the mountains of New
Jersey at Bernardsville. He lived there
a large part of his life. The locality be
came the popular resort of wealthy New
Yorkers. Bishop Janes, quietly holding
on, became possessed of a large wealth.
A man by the name of Oliver came from
Ireland. He worked his passage by tak
ing care of the sick. He won the affec
tion of some of the passengers, who prom
ised to look out for him. Mrs. Janes
was in want of a trusty man to take care
of the place and run the farm. Oliver
was recommended to the lady and he en
tered into her employ thirty years ago.
He remained faithful and successful till
about five years since. He was then able
to buy the Bishop's place with his elegant
mansion. He is now one of the wealthy
of Bernardsville, and has a regal income
from summer boarders. Bishop Janes
was a catholic man, loyal to his church,
but at home in all denominations. His
voice was feeble, his manner not prepos
sessing, yet he was one of the most ear
nest and successful preachers in his church.
At times he would work himself up into
a whirlwind of excitement, and shriek
like an eagle in a storm. Boston Journal.
How Cooke, the Musician, Explained.
At a trial of the Court of King's Bench
in 1813. between certain music publish
ers, as to an alleged piracy of an arrange-
ment ot tne song oi -ine uiu nngiisii
Gentleman," Cooke was subpoenaed as a
witness by one of the parties.
On his cross examination by Mr James
Scarlett for the opposite side, that learned
counsel questioned him thus:
"Now. sir. you say tnat tne iwo melo
dies are the same, but different; now what
do you mean by that, sir?"
To this Tom promptly answereu:
"I said that the notes of the two copies
were alike, but with different accent, the
one being in common time, the other in
six-eight time; and consequently the po
sition of the accented notes wasdiffereut."
"Now, pray, sir, don't beat about the
bush, but explain to the jury, who are
supHsed to know nothing about music,
the meaning of what you call accent."
Cooke "Accent in music is a certain
stress laid upon a particular note, in the
same manner as you would lay stress on
any word, f.r the purpose of being better
understood. Thus, if I were to say, 'You
are an hum,'' it rests on ass: but if I were to
say, 'Yon are an as-,' it rests on you, Sir
James."
Shouts of laughter by the whole court
followed this repartee. Silence at length
having In-en obtained, the Judge, with
mat h seeming gravity, accosted the coun
sel thus: "Are you sati-tied, Sir James?"
Sir James (who had become scarlet in
more than his name), in a great hutf,said:
"The witness may go down."
A Disappointed Maid.
Miss Stokes consideres work very un
ladylike, and the kitchen Ialor "perfectly
shocking." But w hen an iudustrious ami
sensible young man began to occasional
ly drop in and spend an evening, she
very wisely refrained from expressing
these convictions, after hearing him on
several occasions severely denounce the
frivolity and indolence so laslnonablc at
present with many of the young ladies of
Philadelphia.
Entertaining a high regard for the
young man, sue uetc mined ro surprise
him by some great teat of ber industry
and perseverance, and last evening as
they were seated together on the parlor
sofa, after the conversation had U-gun to
flag, she artfully allowed a sigh to escape
her.
"Are you unwell?" he tenderly in
quired. "No, I am quite well."
"But you sighed," he persisted.
"Yes; but I suppose it was because I
felt so tired."
"Have you been busy?"
"Oh! yes. indeed," was the reply.
"Why, would you Indieve it? I cut out a
totrd and made it all myself to-day."
There has been a coolness between the
parties ever since, the reason of which
he has never been fully able to explain,
but she anjjrily remarked the next morn
ing that some men were foolish enough
to imagine that a woman ought to be able
to do more work than a fifty horse-power
steam engine.
The Kmploymeiit of Time.
The foundation of all economy is a
wise disposition of time. Let that be ac
quired and true economy in everything
else will infallibly ami speedily follow;
and the most difficult step toward acquir
ing it is a real and wise economy of time.
Economy has, in fact, got a very bad
character with the great majority of peo
ple because it is confounded with stingi
ness; though, in fact, they are so far from
being connected that stinginess is a very
deadly enemy to real economy, while
liberality and generosity must be con
lined to words and w ishes w here economy
is not served.
Still some persons imagine that if they
play the niggard with every cent and
every article of which they can obtain
jossession they are good economists. A
more wretched and complete mistake can
not be made. Economy is the right em
ployment of money ami means, not the
hoarding and burying of them. To save
is very laudable and desirable, but it is
no saving to lay up certain piecesof coiu
w hile we shiver for want of fuel or faint
for want of food which those pieces of
coin would purchase; to do so is to save
the coin, indeed, but it is to save it at the
expense of that health and that duration
of life which no amount of money can
purchase or compensate for.
Eccentricities of Great Men. We
find, says the New York Time, that the
story entitled "The Hose of Death," re
published in the Time of Sunday from
the Cornhill Jifii'',originally appeared
in Harper' Bazaar, some five years ago,
under the title of "Otto of Hoses." The
story was purchased by Messrs. Harper
fc Brothers from Julian Hawthorne, and
that versatile person would appear to
have slightly expanded and touched up
this early production and resold it to the
publishers of the Cornhill. We have
had some similar experience of the sharp
practice of the novelist of the period in
regard to stories purchased from Mr.
Bret Harte, ami to a story for w hich we
were on the point of paying an agent of
Mr. Wilkie Collins. It is perhaps natural
that authors who arc appreciably poorer
because of the lack of an international
copyright law, should be tempted, now
and again, to indemnify themselves by
selling the same wares twice.
Bishoi Wuiri'i.E, of Minnesota, con
tributes a statement to the discussion of
the Indian question which bears hardly
upon the reputation of the United States
as a civilized nation. He says that we
have not an hundred square miles of
territory in which a massacre of whites
or Indians has not occurred, and that
we have spent 500,000,000 in Indian
wars; while the same two races in the
British dominions, constantly thrown into
contact, have never had a massacre,
and the whites have never spent a dollar
in Indian wars. This contrast leaves
nothing to be said in apology for the
policy of the Americans. This state
ment, so far as we can remember the his
toric facts, is perfectly true. Interior.
Says Prof. Huxley of our colleges:
"The English universities arc the product
of government; yours of private munifi
cence. That among us is almost un
known. The general notion of an Eng
lishman, when he gets rich, is to found
an estate and benefit his family. The
general notion of an American, when for
tunate, is to lo something for the good of
the people and from which benefits shall
continue to flow. The latter is the nobler
ambition."
Dr. Sears say that the majority of the
Southern (States have made slow but
steady progress in education; two or
three have manifested renewed interest
and energy. The conviction of the neces
sity of public schools is gaining ground
everywhere.

All Americans who have traveled in Eu
rope have iM-en unanimous in speaking oi
the great inferiority of Ihe hotel of London,
Paris. ienna. Berlin and other cities to those
of New York and S.tu Francisco. In his
Innoc ents Almvnl" M:irk Twain i particu
larly severe on the bad uecoinnnKlat ioii fur
nished by European Hotels and the indiffer
ence of "the proprietors to the wishes and
comforts of their guests. The fact is, hotel-
keeping in Europe has never la-en eievaieu
into a science u. in San Francisco, for the
simple reason that there ar no boniface
there or the tact, experience and gentlemanly
instincts of H. H. Pearson, the itopular pio
prietor of the Cosmopolitan Hotel of this
city.
This old-established, commodious and elegantly-furnished
hotel.on the comer of Bush
anil Sansome streets, has, ever since Mr.
Pearson assumed the management, been the
favorite city residence of the most prominent i
residents of California, in addition io ocing
the permanent abode of several of the lead
ing business men of San Francisco and their
families. Well know ing how greatly cheer-fully-furnished
rooms, prompt ami courteous
attendance, a sumptuously-provided table,
and other desiderata of a positive nature
contribute to the popularity ami success of
hotel life, Mr. Pearson has always paid the
greatest attention to every department of
his immense establishment, and personally
looked afle r the comfort of transient a well
as permanent guests. Even the marketing
is done under his personal supervision, w bile
the culinary department receives his watch
ful care. He is iu fatt the model hotel pro
prietor of San Francisco, and all persons
who have experienced the joys of living at
the CosmoHilit oi know w hat it is to realize
the greatest comfoils of human existence.
The whole building has just been renovat
ed, and is now more attractive than ever.
All the walls are of a delicate white, new
carpets have been laid down, and ilegnnt
new furniture in trod need, while Ihe beautiful
tliniug-rooui has liecn made more cheerful
than ever. The comforts of stopping there
have in consequence been greatly increased,
and this hotel should receive the preference
over all others. S. Jst.
