Itreaeute poured. in from every part of the capital* and on the day before the inertias. A 'tablet of gold was sent to the bride, upon which was engraved. the (idiot elevating her to the throne. The bride is here known as the pheenix and the Emperor is known as t'he dragon, and the etnion is that of the pheenix and. the dragon. A grand procession escorted the bride to the palece. A Manchu Prince was at its head. and thirty white home followed behind. The dowager Empress received the bride, Site stepped from her eedan °hair on to a golden middle and from that into her home. It will be the tame with the marriage of this Emperor, and the Ease press will role the ladies of the imperial household. The number of females in the royal harem is not accurately known. The Emperor has the right% to oven legal concubines andsto an unlimited number of illegal ones. Every third year after March next he will review the datighters of the high rank Manchu offi- cers over twelve years of age, and will choose etch as he pleases for hie palace. Such of his aecondary -wives as bear children to bite will continue to remain in the palace. The others may be restored to liberty when they reach the age of twenty-iive years. Manchn girls consider it a great favor to be taken into the palace, and. -their families regard it an honer. They have no trouble in finding husbands if they are permitted to come out again, but while in the palace they associate with none but the King and his eunuchs. The Empress Dowatter, who, notwith. standing the boy Emperor has ascended the throne, !dill remains Empress Regent. is ore of the most remarkable women in Chinese history. She has ruled China for twenty. five 'Feat:, and she became Regent in con- nection with the Eastern Emprease, in 1861, when die Emperor Hien Feng died, leaving two WiVOL The Eestero Empresa died six years ago, and there was at this time a great excitement in .Peking because it was thought that the Western. Empress, or this meted Lay, who was the real ruler of China. was sick. The most noted doctors of China were celled to court. Their medicines availed nothing, and they visited Dr. Dad- geon, at eminent Scottish practitioner of Peking, and asked him for some medicine and advice. Dr. Dudgeon replied that if the Empress wanted his services she could call him in, but the.the did not intend to risk advice and medicine at second hand. The result was that the Eastern Empress died and the present Empress Dowager rul- ed. Daring the last siCkness of the Em- press she could for a long time Mire only milk, and it took sixty wet nurses to keep her alive. The preaerit Emprese Regent is now over fifty, and she is said to be well formed and dignified.

Cohn lute calculated that a species undergoing fission once an hour, - which is not too high an estimate for some speoles,-under favorable circumstances might count 'nearly seventeen million offt springat the end of twenty-fonr hours, while in about a week the number could be represented only by the use of fifty.one figures, so that it is practically meaningless to the ordinary mind; but to give some means of comparison he calculates the space that] theses microscopic beings would occupy if each were about twice the eize of that I have spoken of, and finds that in five the progeny of a skate cell if all survived and were equally prolific, would occupy nine hundred and twenteeeight million cubic miles, the volume of the ocean. Of course their reproduction is checked greatly by unfavorable aonditions and by thetrenemies; but what wonder if the germs of putrefac- tion and disease are well-nigh omnipres- ent! Though bacteria are exceedingly minute and simple beings, we have seen that their power of multiplication, if unchecked, is incomprehensibly great. Their influence on higher organisms is also entirely dispropor- tionate to their size.

Detroib Free Press :.There are few people that have not looked into the dictionary especiallywho know how the term "spinster" originated. We often find it in Shakespeare and other of the Eneliah eta/nice, heti') is used -to define the spinner, This is its sped - fie meaning. Its general significance is wider. There was an old practice, in the years agone, their a woman ahonld never be married until she hade open herself a set of body, table and bed linen. It is not difficult to see how easily the term became applicable to all un- married women. and finalier became a law term and fixed. It is not the fashion among lawyers nowadays to specify the maiden by the word "spinster," "Single women" is the phrase employed in its place, and per- haps, with more satisfaction, beeause there is something about the spinster which is objectionable. It is aseociated with acerb- ity, wrinkles, moroseneas and general dia- agreeableneas. The term " spinater " is de- cidedly objeoeionable to an unmarried wee man. It occupies a close position to "old maid," which is certainly and always% rel- ented with acorn and oftentimes indig- &trio's. The Herald is now poblithed eireultan- eouely in New York, London, and Paris, the three greatest cities of the wprld-an achievement unprecedented in the history of journalism. The "Pall Mall Gazette" takes strong ground against the introduction of the Sunday morning newspaper into Lon- don. Ib does so, nob on Sabbatarian grounds, for the work on a Sunday paper is done on Saturday, but because it thinks man should be obliged to labour only six, days in the Week. It fearelthet the " Herald's " action will force the great London dailies to adopt a similar course. In England the Sunday newspaper has bitherto been practically unknown, whereas in the United States it is made a special feature, the Sunday issues of many of the great dailies being not unlike magazines in the extent of their contente and the quality of some of them. It appears to be true that human roguery cannot concoct a sthente of mo.neyemaking too unblushingly and even glaringly fraud- ulent, but some fools will be found greedy enough 4 stupid enough, or both greedy and stupid, to make geese of themselves for the sly foxes to pluck at their leisure. A conspicuous ease of the kind came to light in New York City the other day. Some speoulator with more shrewdness than honesty sent out plausibly worded circulars inviting people to join a Mutual Benefit Society. the benefits in which were -securable by joining a class of 100 persone, paying an initiation fee stf two dollars, and ten dollars monthly thereafter, the net monthly result therefrom being of course $1000, which, the circular went on to say would be loaned to one member Of the claps at 6 per cent. in- terest, the borrower agreeiog to pay the ible00 and interest back in monthly instal- ments of $10.

Transmitsion of Disease -It is almost a hopeless doctrine to preach that persona who inherit a tendency to consumption should not marry. Human nature is wilful, and love will still be lord of all. Bat a great deal might be dem to prevent the transmis- sion of the disease if marriage were postpon- ed till after the thirtieth year was past, as phthisis is most apt to appear between the ages of twenty and thirty. The Pennsylvania Legislature has under conaideration a bill entided "An, act to costal:118h a State Board of Medical Bemire era and Licensers, and to define the powere and duties thereof." Its object is to guard the community against quackery and ignor- ance in the medical profession. It is de- voutly to be hoped that it will be stringent, and that it will be passed. Medical ethics, as they are called, are at a low enough ebb and in a muddy enough oondition in some of the States across the border.
