Emerson's First Money for His Books.
An interesting bit of Iiterary history
has recently. come to us from authentic
sources. The early works of the Iate
Ralph Waldo Emerson, including the
first volume of essays, "Nature," and
the early* poems, were printed by the
old publishing house of Monroe & Co.
After Mx. Emerson's return from Eng -
]and, in 1848, be delivered the series
of lectures afterward published under
the title of "Representative Men,"
which, by the influence of tho Rev.
E. E. Hale, he was invited to give at
Worcester. Mr. Phillips, of the pub-
lishing house of Phillips & Sampson,
was residing at Worcester at that time,
and, his wife being a relative of Mr.
Emerson, the lecturer made Mr. Phil-
lips' house his headquarters whenever
he came to the town to speak. The ac-
quaintance which. resulted led Mr. Phil-
lips to suggest that his firm be allowed
to publish Mr. Emerson's next volume.
"I am very willing," was in sub-
stance Mr. Emerson's reply, "but I
wish to own the plates myself." And
so it was arranged. Emerson had at
this time been before the public for a
volumes of essays and a volume of
poems; the Dialhadlived and died,
and the writings of the Sage of Con-
cord were read, or at least talked about,
on each side of the Atlantic, so that the
sale of any book from his pen was in a
manner assured beforehand. Some
time after the appearance of “Repre-
sentative Men," Mr. Phillips sent Mr.
Emerson a check for a considerable
sum, we believe about $600.
Mr. Emerson went immediately to see
his publisher.
"You do not understand," he said,
"before I receive any money I wish to
pay for the plates."
"If yon had examined the state-
ments I sent you," was the publisher's
answer, "you would have seen that
you have already paid for the plates,"
"And the copies that aro on your
hands," inquired Mr. Emerson, "who
owns them?"
"You," was the reply, "subject of
course to our commission."
"And this check is mine also?"
"Certainly; that covers the 'balance
dueyou."
"Well," said Mr. Emerson, "with all
my publishing that - is the first money'
ever received from one of my books."

A grave and dignified D. D., after
listening to the recitation of the cate-
chism by a. class of children, was asked
to make a few remarks to them. Where-
upon he rose and said: "I desire, my
young friends, to express an unqualified
approbation of this exercise. I regard
the catechism as themost admirable
epitome of religious belief extant." The
superintendent pulled his sleeve and
asked him to explain the word epitome,
which he elucidated as follows: "By
epitome, children, I mean—that is—it
is synohvmous with svnonsis!"
The throngest Mau In the World,
This claim is made for Stern Car-
penter, who lives in the village of Gran-
ville Corners,Washington County, N.Y.

member of the Society of Mende, He

tors in feats of physical strength. Ile
once lifted a box filled with iron weigh-
ing 1,900 pounds. This was done -by
hoisting the box with his hands, and
was a feat equal to raising8,800 pounds
in harness. At another time be lifted a
cannon which weighed 1,400 pounds,
and shouldered it. He has frequently
raised a barrel of white lead with ease
To guess the weight of a huge hog he
would lift it by the bristles with the
fingers of his one hand, and many a
porker has he raised in this way weigh
mg 500 pounds. Being a man of peace
he rarely got into trouble with other
men, but one day he was mischievously
tripped up by one of his workmen. He
caught the man by the shoulder and by
the seat of his pantaloons and hurled
him into the air over a seven -foot fence.
The man came down in a marsh a rod
or more from the fence. It is believed
there is no equal of Mr. Carpenter now
living. He is nota large man, though
very massive in his build. Ile would
not he picked out in a crowd as of more
than average strength. Great power of
muscle runs in families and so does
weiggat. There is a family Lames 11Lkey,
in Mason County, Ill., who average 277
pounds. The father weighs 480 pounds,
the mother 286, and the eldest daughter
807. Were marriages not contracted
by people themselves, but entered into
by the advice of scientific physicians, it
would be possible to perpetuate families
that would be noted for weight, muscu-
lar development, size and personal
beauty, according as the physician
might select. But love is blind, and
pays no heed to heredity.—Prom Dem-

Saltlagoons are `met with in several
