AN ALLEGED MIRACLE.
Samuel Bowth is a coloured
man, who for .li long time has
been employed in a lumber .yard,
writes a Jacksonville correspond..
ent. Though. ignorant he has also
been well liked., Bowth has also
taken a great interest in religious
matters; but his great drawback
was be could not read.
His employer was much sur-
prised the other day when be
noticed that Sam wag exceedingly
happy, and with great exultation,
Sam told Dorocher that be could
read, and, upon being furnished a
Bible, be read with perfect ease.
Sam was well known and this
caused great excitement about his
new gift. Sam told the following
story:
"I never had any education, and
envied ministers, and I determin-
ed to learn how to read. I
studied, but it was Greek to me.
I never could learn one word, so I
took tolmy kuees and prryed that
1 wonlb bo made able to read. I
rayed land prayed every night
my kneels asking God to teach
e how toread. The other night
felt a curious feeling, as if an
ld rag *as being unwrapped
from around nay head, and some-
thing toln me I oouid read, so I
got a Bible of a neighbor, and it
was all plain. I can read it plain-
ly and can pronounce all the
words richt, eto everybody tells
me. Pfeil you, boss, I believe in
prayer'.”

These interests extend
r the globe and require the
atest judgment and the most
kilful knowledge of affairs.
Many of these officers by their
keen knowledge of affairs of state
and nations, save their companies
annually ten times the salary they
receive. They are provided
against almost every system of
blackmail by reason of their
vast experience in the conduct of
companies and earn their salaries
many times over.
Up in the dry goods district
the big man of the ,Claffin Com-
pany, Tel,. Welleli: & Co. and
other firms of that calibre receive
on an 'average $5000 to 20,000 a
year. There are several excep-
tions where buyers and others
run their iltconos upfrom.$10,000
to $20,000 a year. This is in the
dry goods jobbing branch, because
in the dry goods commission
branch the average salary of an
employee is from $2,500 to $5,000
a year. There are several excep-
tional people -who receive $7,500.
All of' these people earn their
money, too. The vast experience
necessary to buy goods successfully
fled to `keep in touch with the vast
competition of the present day is
certainly worth a liberal income.
Then the selling of goods requires
an extended acquaintance, much
personal outlay and the tempera-
ment of a diplomat.

NEWS NOTES.
The friends of Mrs L. Youmans,
the well-known temperance lec-
turer-, will be glad to learn that
she has returned much benefitted
from Battle Creek, Mich., where
she has been undergoing. treat-
ment.
Ata meeting of farmers the
other clay, Mr L. W olverton of the
Canadian Horticulturist spoke on
"Causes of failure in the apple
crop." The reason so many fail-
ed in this line was because they
starved and neglected their trees.
Where barnyard manure could
not be had wood ashes were good
and worth at least 30 cents per
bushel for trees. Another reason
was because of bad pruning. The
apple worm could be destroyed by
spraying with Paris green, a
tablelespoonful to a barrel of wat-
er. Huron farmers:should make
a note of this.
Secretary Windom, one of Presi-
dent Harrison's moat trusted ad-
visers in the Government of the
United States, suddenly dropped
dead from heart disease while at-
tending a public banquet at Del.
monico's Hotel, New York, last
Thursday night. There was a
distinguished gathering to cele-
brate the annual festival of the
Board of Trade, and among the
guests present were the Hon. Wil-
fred Laurier, leader of the Opposi-
tion in Canada, Attoney-General
Longley, of Nova Scotia, and
Er-astus Wiman. Just after the
toast of the evening had been hon-
oured and replied to by the spon-
sor ofthe Silver bill himself', some
one cried out, "look at Secretary
Windom," and it *as seen that he
had collapsed and was falling to
the floor, tris face was gastly
and a cry of horror ran around
the banquet chamber. Several
doctors rushed to the spot and
drove back the crowd which had
gathered around the prostrate
man. He was carried to the dish
room, and for six minutes four
electric batteries were applied, in
the hope of renewing vitality.'y.
His head, however soon ceased to •
beat, and at 11 minutes Set
JO p. m. JudgeArnoux came into
the dining hall and amid a breath-
less silence announced that the
secretary was dead. Secretary
Tracy, of the Admiralty, wired
the dread news to the President
at Washingtsn, and the news was
communicated to Mrs Windom by
him before midnight. Deceased
had suffered from a similar attack
on Monday last, but it passed
away without any serious conse-
quences.
PANTS O NO PANTS.
The city of Mexico is face to
face with a ,momentous question.
This is whether the wearing of
trousers in the street shall be
compulsory or not. The primi-
tive practices of the Republic
sanction a shirt and a breech -clout
as a.public full dress for the low-
er orders, but the aldermen of the
city are detirmined to inaugurate
an era of sumptuory decency, if
the police have to bo called in to
enforce it. They havo therefore
held a special session, tied have
appointed a committee of five to
oblige the men employed in city
work to use trousers, and to visit
proprietors of manufactories, etc.,
for the purpose of arranging to
have their laborers arrayed with
these bifurcated necessities. If
we bear of a breeches revolution
in Mexico, we may know that the
down -trodden bare legs of the
land of silver have revolted againt
municipal tyranny and modeles
tailoring. The •question is of
great importance to Canadian
houses in view of the fact that we
'may soon be able to enter into re-
ciprocal trade ' relations with
Mexico.=Dry Goods Review.

THE GOOD OLD TIMES.
-"Then -times were good,
-Merchants oared not a rush
For any other fare,
Than Johnny cake' and mush."
But now times have changed,
and the plain and simple fare of
the forefathers is done away with.
Patent flour, and high seasoned
food,and strong drinks,have taken
its place,and,as a result,dyspepsia
impure blood, and diseases of the
stomach, liver and lungs are
numerous. This great change
has led one of the most skillful
physicians of the age to study out
a remedy for these modern dis-
eases, which he has named his
"Golden Medical Discovery." Dr
Pierce in this remedy has found a
cure for Dyspepsia, Asthma, Con-
sumption,in its early stages, and
"Liver Complaints."
The Winnipeg Tribune pub-
lished a statement that Archbis-
hop Tache is very ill,and that the
doctors do not expect him to re-
cover.
'Ladies who suffer from foul
breath, the result of catarrh or
cold in the head can obtain speedy
relief by the' use of Nasal Balm.
It never fails. Try it.
Mr G. H. Croxden Powell, the
English publicist, at present in
Ottawa, referring to the cattle
trade, says out of the 40,000,000
people of the British Isles, there
are fully 30,000,000 who depend
on foreign countries for their
meat supply.
Mu Stinson, the unseated Con-
servative candidate in Hamilton,
has resolved not to appeal the
case, but to try another bout with
the Hon J. M. Gibson. An ap •
peal would have been useless.

There is a curious state of af-
fairs in the Presbyterian Churh
at _New Bedford, because the con-
gregation overlooked the church
law that a man elected to the
office of deacon must "be the
husband of one wife and have his
children in sebjection." At the
annual meeting of the. New Bed-
ford congregation, which took
place recently, Wm Wright was
elected a deacon. .After his in-
stallation it was discovered that
according to the rule, he was not
eligible to election, he having
lgeither wife nor chiluran. Wright,
*ho is a fine old gentlemen, is,
greatly vexed over the situation,
andwill resign.

that he had committed suicide.

however, have caused suspicion,
and the coroner's jury ordered the
