Let- ter Office " are always curious, even when they consist of the baldest statistics. For the past year in the United States tke number of mis- sives which failed to reach their des- rtination amounted to nearly 3,000,- 400. About 70,000 had yin insuffi ,tient address, 400,000 were not pre- paid, while over 3,000 were actually put in the post -office without an ad -- .dress whatever 1 The " contents of these letters were very various, both as to their nature andel value. Photo - ,graphs to the number of 39,000— were gazed upon with indifference by the elel<ks, whore use has made Apathetic. etic. But articles ofeentiment- „al; value were not the only ones - rhich were found in the clexad-letters. In hard cash $92,000 were taken from them,and cheques, drafts,- &c, do the enormous amount of $3,000, - MO. 00, Of course, whenever it was .possible, anything of value was re- turned to the senders or owners,: if ithey could be discovered; and' in this way the greater proportion of the money and other valuables .was ..disposed of: but there must have been very gross carelessness on the .part of the writers, of these letters .-and frequently most "serious incon- :venience caused to those for whom' they were intended. The failure to\ t -receive a remittance is at times the ,cause of the greatest embarrassment, and persons who send -money throuh the post -office cannot be toe csreful in seeing thatthe address is not •.only. 'correctly written,: but also so legibly that it cannot be -easily mis- read by the mail clerks. The every ,dayexperience of mercantile houses, as well as these records of the dead - letter office, furnishes- abundant evi- - dente of careless and defective super: ascriptions, and the wonder really is, .not that so -many letters go astray, brit that so comparatively few fail to reach those for whom they were in - 'tended. A Local Option Incident.: 1 A New Bedford man walked into --an office in Norwich one`evening re- , Gently, with the blunt speech, "I ,neither smoke, chew, nor drink. I belong to Fall Rivet, and have had nothing to eat to -day. " -r The clet k, who wN s just going to close up, said to hitu, " I think I have - seen you ..before. " "You are wrong I never was here before, " was the reply. The clerk handed him twenty-five cents, and locking up and passing in, - to the street a moment afterward, was just in time to see his new friend enter a lager beer saloon. He at • once followed, and seeing his quarter laid down for a glass of Teutonic bit- terness, grabbed it, remarking to the man, I neither smoke, chew, nor drink. " Phe fellow viewed this. new method of prohibition with. open-mouthed but dumb surprise. A Curious -Hotel., Of all the hotels in the world the very oddest is a lonely, one in Cali- fornia, on the road between San Jose . and Santa, Cruz. Imagine ten ''im- mense trees standing a few feet apart p land hollow inside ; these are the hotel, heat, breezy, and romantic. P , Thelargest ri ... st tr ee is stat - g � fig e feet around, and contains a sitting -room and that bureau of Bacchus where- from is dispensed the . thing that biteth and stingeth. .A11 about this tree is a garden of flowers and ever- greens. The drawing -room is : a' bower rnade of redwood, evergreens. . and macdrona branches, For bed- chambers there are nice great hollow titres, whitewashed or paper•edi and having doors cut to fist the shape oP the holes. Literature, finds ;a place in a leaning stump, cluo_bed' "the literary. " If it were not for that same haunt of Bacchus, it is certain that the guests of this forest establishment would feel like no- thing so much as dryads.—Y.Y. Tri - bane. ' Vege 'able Poison. Strychnine is unquestionably a very dreadful poison, the essential property of aux vomica, a nut. Yet, notwithstanding its destructive po- tency-, physicians are all the time prescribing it. Of course, the doses are extremely minute, but " littles make mickles," says the proverb. A • question may hereafter arise, as sci- ence advances, in regard to that old attribute of conscience called respon- - sibility, in closing patients with a positive poison in any form. A running vine, cacuve, yields precisely she same product, which is distilled 4)37 -Upper ' natives of the TJ ger Orinoco. They are marvellously ex- pert with air guns—niece tubes of bamboo, about six feet 1 g Dip- ping the points of small atrows in -the liquor, they blow them with such unfailing accuracy as to hit game at a considerable distance. So quickly is the poison diffused tine: animal falls directly. As soon as secured the hunter spirts sal& dis- solved in his own mouth' into the the puncture, which instantly neu- tralizes the deadly charge. The flesh is then perfectly safe for food Why would it not be worth while to institute (;;; eriments here with •salt ? Suicides avail themselves of -,strychnine' occasionally, and acct- dents, too, are 'occurring hence the importance of disoovering a speedy antidote. ' If the Indians, also, save animals alive, even after they have fallen in convulsions om an ab- sorption of theiso table salt,Po n, by simple the fact'should be remem- bered by medical gentlemen. Some of the moat valuable discoveries in science have had an origin as humble . as the customs .of Orinoco s savages. Scottish Modesty.. The young elacher stands by the cottage gable in the fading tight, -de- claring 'It's a gran' nicht 1' Ever so ofieu he says it,yet he'feels its grandeur not at all, for the presence of something :grander or better, I suppose,—the maiden, Kirsty Grant. Does he whisper; soft somethings of her bitterness, I wonder, while thus he lingers? ` Not at all. His only communication is the important fat, It's a gran' nicht.' He would linger, blessed in her presence but the closing. clay warns him to be` gone. It .will be midnight before he can reach his village home miles aw .y. Yet was it sweet to linger. `Its a very gran' nicht, but I nuaun' bast' awa', Midler 'ill be wanner - said 'he,--='• Deed, ye'll hae tae draw yer feet gey fast tae win` hame afore Ole Sabbath, sae e'en be step- pin','• she .answered coolly. ' It's gran' !' said he ; ' I wish ilka Satur- day nicht was like this ane: ' Wi' ye, Saturday nicht shud maist be lik' Sunday morn, if ye bevil it richt,' said she, with a toss of her head,' for she rightly guessed that somewhat of the lar?s pleasure was referable to herself. ' I mann shut up -the coo:' ' Good :nicht,' sail he. Good nicht,' said she, disappearing in the byre. He stepped away into the . muirland, making for home..

Man, I wish I Baur spaik oot. till her.' - New Method of Washing Clothes A new method of washing has been extensively adopted in Ger- many to obviate the ill effect of soda on linen. The operation consists in dissolving two pounds of- soap in abone three gallons of water as hot as the hand can beat, and adding to this one table spoonful of turpentine and three of liquid `ammonia; the mixture must then be well stirred; and the linen: steeped in it for two or three hours, taking care to cover up the vessel which: contains them as' nearly hermetically as possible. The clothes , are afterward washed out and rinsed- in the usual way. The soap and water may be reheat- ed and used a second .time,- but in that case half a table -spoonful of tur- pentine and a table -spoonful of am- monia must he added. The process -is said to ° cause `a great economy of time, labor and -fueL The linen scarcely suffers at all, as there is lit- tle necessity for. rubbing,and its cleanliness and color are perfect; The ammonia and turpentine, al- though their detersive action is neat -have , ha, e no injurious effect, :ulmon the linen, and while the former eva- porates immediately, the smell of. thelatter is said to disappear entire- ly during the drying of .the clothes. Seo• . Pouring Molten Iron Over a Man. Albany has the latest horror --one of the ,most frightful we ever read. The Express tells the story : Yester- day afternoon two workmen em- played in Ransom's' foundry, named Thomas Sheelley "arid Nicholas Slid- fard, had an altercation while the work of casting was going on, which had a fearful iesult. Sheehey, ac- cidentally or otherwise, dropped from his ladle a little hot' iron on Shilfard's foot and burned it. Shil- &rd ran to a tub of water and plung- ed his foot in it, and somewhat eas- ed- as-ed- the pain._ He then returned, and taking -a position in the passage way between the moulds, as Sheehy came along with a ladle full of the molten iron; knocked Sheehey-down. Ace()) ding to the allegations which Sheehey makes, Shilfard after knocking him down, picked upthe ladle containing molten iron and poured its contents upon Sheehey's body from his chin down, and then struck him with Ghe ladle. Sheehey was rendered frantic by the terrible agony -which he experienced, and ran to the door, when he was, seized and his burning garments torn from him by other persons present. The whole fore part of his body was burned in a terrible manner °so that the 'flesh peeled uff,. ' His recovery is consider- ed doubtful.
