There are no untiKting lines; everything is ri gip. and uncoai piomisiug. The jQOset of those days must have bam, a kind ol daily torture, andith result ol wearing it was eyerxipre hideous than the terrible "t. asp-waist with which our own day is so familiar. The waist itself, iu :hese portraits, is situated somewh' re in the region of the hips, an arrangement that must have greatly inconvenienced the internal organs, packing them together like sardines in a tin oniy rather more so. From tin waist up to the shoulders there is a perfectly straight line, sloping outward, it is truv, but with no variations from absolute rigidity 01 outline. One thinks with amaze ment of the pains our grand mothers must have taken and the excessive inconvenience they must have endured in order to destroy all the grace aid beauty of their forms as nature made them. Un compromising stiffness must have been the characteristic of their gait, and the high head-dresses and high heels would in no way tend to detract from these. It was curious, at the private views, to contrast the dress of the last century portraits with that of the men and women who came to look at them. In the matter ol dress our own period compares lavorably with that of a hundred years ago. Little fault couid Le fouud with the dress of to da , were but the hump at the back of the waist wholly done away with, and the walking dresses kept sui fidelity shoit in the skirts to cleer the ground. There is a tendency tins Winter to have them Ion enough at the tacK to dip into th copious mud.

A stupen dous railway scheme is being hatcheu by the Chicago, Minnea polis and St. Paul men, and al though the utmost secrecy has been maintained by those interested, enough has been learned of the nn.iect to give a fair idea of what is proposed. A gentleman believed to oe in terested said to-day : The idea is to construct a road irom the twin cities ot St. Paul and Minneapolis, via Bismarck, British Columbia and Alaska, to Peking. China and eventually to Irkutsk in Russian Siberia. "Railroads are already built to Victoria. Thence the line will be constructed to Cape Prince of Wales, on Behring Strait, a dis tance of 1100 miles. The strait is thirty-five miles wide and is dotted with islands. A temporary cross ing will be made by the boats, but as the water is not uniformly deep it is expected that ultimately a bridge can be erected across the entire distance with draws of suf ficient width to permit the passage of vessels with perfect safety. On the opposite shore, at East Cape, a line will be continued to interior points. Russia is already building a road to Irkutsk and this line will be extended to meet the American road. The gentiemau added to this, the projectors hnd given the schema a long and careful consid eration, and that while it might look visionary, he had no doubt in the world it was founded cn solid principle?; trains, he said, omld make the distance from St. Paul to Irkutsk in ten days. Mr. Brink lias received the linest as sortmeiit of wicker rocking chairs to be found i.i the citv. If you don't bc lieveit, call in and sec ior yourself. TUB MUKOMOPE. Its I'ses Explained By Wytuc. Professor Examiner. The lecture room -of the Cooper Medical Institute was well tilled at 8 o'clock last evening when Pro fessor Wythe, lectured cn "The Microscope as a Dectective." The lecture was highly entertaining, and teemed with practical illus tratious whicti . were both amus iug ami instructive. in opening his address Professor VVytiij suid that no invention of mouen.. or ancient times equaled iu interest aud ciiti il useiuliicss that ot the microscope, rar many centuries after it was discovered that a giubule of water contained muiiiiil vini' power, the use of the microscopic principle was notutil ;zed. It is only 300 years siuce Zacharias Jnnseu Uide the first ,:i)iu pound iustrurnent of that kind ia Holland. Then followed in provements on the Id method of uoj listing lenses. The greatest discovery of Gallileo, that of Jupi ter's satellites, would be made by a small telescope which would be regarded as comparatively Useless in tliis advanceu age of telescopic as weil as microscopic search. These improvements have been so widespread and beneiicial that nav igation or commerce cannot dis pense with the telescope any more than can medicine or tlie sciences with the microscope. "The use' of the microscope continued the lecturer, ha become general among tne people of intel ligence and discernment, its use aids in the detection of disease, crime and the abuiteration o; pro ducts. The microscope is nothing but an eve, and the eye is nothing but a window of the soul. But by its us'j has every portion of the hu man frame liable to disei ; oeen an alyzed and the causes as well as ef fects of disease been discovered. The study of bacteria by Heck in 1095 with the aid of the microscope wtis fruitless of results until Pas teur in 1881 followed Heck's ideas and actually carried them eut by the aid of appliances to which Heck could not have had access. France was losing 100.000,000 francs per annum by a malignant silk worm disease until Pasteur put a stop to the damage by point inir out the cause ot the trouble and its remedy, all of which he ob tained by an intelligent use ot the microscope. This is said to be the aire of auuiteratious, and the mi- crcscopist of experience know it to be true. The microscope serves humanity by bringing these de ceptions to light. With its use we can detect foreign matter in sub stances and unerringly point eut the right irom the wrong. So wid( spread i& tiiis hao;t ot adu terahwi; as indicated by microscro pists, that etfuirs are now being made at Wasiiiugton to have rigor ous laws passed prohibiting un scrupulous men from robbing peo ple not only of their money, butol their health, by introducing poison ous substances into food. It' a re-! form be worked in this regard it may be attributed to the use of that little but useful thing, the microscope." Professor Wythe then arose spoke dt tne microscope and its uses in the detection of crime. By its use have murderers been brought to justice ami accused innocent men acquited. Its use in courts of justice has become universal, and the most skillful forger s efforts prove fruitless when his handiwork is displaced for critic:'.! insp-cuoD beneath use ujicr.5c ;ic d lense. The physician can detect d.sease, and the scientist matures most pro found secrets with its aid. While the telescope takes us far away to other worlds, and revea's to us their hitherto buried mysteries, the microsjope explains to us the things of life whiju surround hu manity, and points out the reme dies which, if acted upon, will be of inestimable service to martal men . Southern Antidote for Malaria. It is generally known that Simmons Liver Regulator is relied upon to secure immunity from all malarial disorders. This is proven by its pop ularity, and anyone who lias lived in the South has been curative eneets and the protection it gives against this weakening and dangerous malady. It acts more promptly than calomel or quirine, without any of their injurious consequences. Mothers and nurses may give Sim mon Liver Regulator to children and to ths most dedicate home-bound in valid witli the utmost confidence in its safety and efficacy. It saves no er.d of doctors' bills. Always keep it in thelio.ise, for it is a liousr-hoid icm edy, and there are many ailments thai .the Regulator will cure, it is sale to take in ar.v condition ol tne system. No fear from exposure after taking this medicine. . . Jtissoititiou of opartiersliii. mHR Ct (PARTNERSHIP HERETOFORE L existing between John Isc-ssi. K. J. Luu niiii.' ant!

Florida Correspondence Kew York Sun. Of all the birds in this section, there is one that will afford an idler lots of amusement if he will spend an occasio:.ai hour watching close ly. It is the shrike or butcher bird. A few days ago I was in an orange grove a few rods from the house, where an old darky, with the assistance of a mule, was plow ing, and a butcher bird was flying from tree to tree, following up the newly plowed furrow-, looking for insects. Every fewr minutes he would go to pick up a beetle or iu sect, and for some time he simply swallowed his victims. At'tr a Utile he seemed to have had enongli to eat, and just then a little flock of larks were seen running along in the newly turned furrow, at times almost touching the old darky's heels. Ivow and then they wouid come across an insect too large for them to easily manage, and then would begin a little scuf fle. Then the butcher bird would sweep down in the center of the little flock, snatch up the insect and fly oft' with it before the larks knew what had happened. The butcher bird had eaten all he want ed, and so, with the beetle in his beak, he flew to the nearest orange tree and, selecting a long, sharp thorn, he impaled the insect upon ir. l watcliea tins t im put. ac least ten insects on different thorns. During an hour, besides numeious large insect , the butcher bird captured two snakes, the largest ef which was two feet long and very lively. These snakes, although they squirmed and twisted, were taken with -difficulty to an orange tree, and afteY a good bit of hard tugging, they were left with a thorn through their bodies. W hen the butcher bird is not looking for food or for victims to stick on thorns, he is generally looking for other birds for the pur pose of fighting them, and so he keeps busy from daylight till dark. Pence on Earth Awaits that countless army of mar tyrs, whose ranks are constantly re cruited, from the victims of neivous ness and nervous diseases. The price of the boon is a systematic course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the finest and most genial of tonic nerviness, pursued with reasonable persistence. Easier, pleasanter aua safer this than to swash the victualling department with pseudo-tonics, alcoholic or the reverse, beef extracts, nerve foods, narcotics, sedatives and poisons in disguise. "Tired Nature's sweet re stored, balmy sleep," is the providen tial recuperant of weak nerves, and this glorious franchise being usually the consequences of sound digestion i-ud increased vigor, the great stom achic which insures both is product ive also of repose at the required time. Not unrefreshed awakens the individ ual who uses it, but vigorous, clear headed and tranquil. Use the Bitters also in fever and ague, rheumatism, kidney troubles, constipation and billiousness. What am I to lo? The symptoms of biliousness are un happily but too we.l known. They differ in different individuals to some extent. A bilious man is seldom a breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent appetite for liquids but none for solids of a morning. His tongue will hardly bear inspection at any time; if it is not white and furred, it is rough' at all events. The digestive svsteni is wholly out of order and diarrhea or con stipation may be a symptom or the two may alternate. There are often hem- Ol 1.1 ) or lie of ;i. oil.
