Enterprising tradesmen in this city, in the distribution of their circulars, nro not backward in utilizing the lists of distinguished persons which are printed in tho newspnpers from timo to time. Not infrequently do they got hold of the names of men who long sinco passed over to that "undiscovered country," and circulars nnd prospectuses nro mailed to tho dead as well as to tho liv ing. It would seem that a iinmo once enrolled on a tradesman's mailing list is never erased. Circular letters ad dressed to "Samuel J. Tilden" are still occasionally left nt the Grnmercy pnrk mansion, and mail matter addressed to W. H. Vanderbilt reaches the Urand Central Btation every now and then.

Boston Trunscript Beware of "Cheap" Canned Stuff: There is one great danger connected with preserved goods, and thnt is that the insane mania for cheapness at all risks which some women have has in duced dishonest people to put inferior goods upon the market, but if a house keeper is careful to buy none but the best and sees that thoy are propcily pro pared by her cook she need have no tear but that her tinned vegotablcs are as harmless as the same substances in their raw and natural state, and she will have the advantage of procuring an infinite variety for her table at a very small out lay both of time and money.

Bostoa is much stirred over the rs fnsnl of the commissioners of public In stitutions to accept a present of rocking chairs for the nged nnd Infirm pauper women nt Rainsford island. A fund of 700 had been subscribed by private be nevolence, and tho chairs had been houjrbt nnd shipped to tho islnnd, but tho commissioners would not let tho old Women hnvo them, nnd Ihey remain on Uio whnrf. The mayor of Boston, who r.ppointa tho commissioners, wrote n noto requesting them to accept the chnirs. Tho commissioners still refused, nnd re ferred the matter to tho common cotin :il. Tho common council voted unani mously in favor of accepting tho chairs, Mill the aldermen concurred with only 3110 dissenting voter. Strong pressure wns, however, brought to bear upon the council and aldermen by the commissioners. Home of the aldermen were taken down the hnrbor to Rainsford island and cams back re porting that thero wns nlrendy ono rock ing chnir for every three women, and moro chnirs would bo a needless luxnry. The result wns that the council and aldermen were induced to reconsider their vote nnd refer the whole matter to the committee on pnblio institutions, which means shelving it indefinitely. Tho insolent and unreasonable beha vior of the commissioners is understood to bo due to a grudgo against Mrs. Alice N. Lincoln, who was active in raising the money for tho rocking chairs, and who has aroused the ire of the commis sioners by previous efforts to better the condition of the paupers and to reform certain abuses which have caused the loss of moro thnn ono life.

On nnd after May 10 next licenses is sued to storekeepers in this city to sell liquor not to be drank on the premises will cost $ 200 a year instead of $30 as heretofore. Tho new rato, which applies to thoso whose snles aggregate less than $2,500 a year, was agreed upon by the excise board on Tuesday. Its adoption is a salutary, practicable and proper measure of excise reform. It is salutary because, it will tend to restrict the evil of surreptitious drink ing in grocery, provision and drug stores which are patronized by women, and in which the charge for liquor is added to the cost of household commodities. It is practicable, because it will aug ment the city's excise revenues without a corresponding increase in tho number of saloons or in the amount of liquor sold. It is proper, because it will do away with the unfair distinction which has heretofore existed between ordinary sa loons where liquor is sold openly and stores whero the same article is sold pri vately. New York Sun. Colonel Shepard. KIndneAS. The Into Colonol Elliott F. Shepard of New York is gratefully remembered by the congregation of the First Presby terian church of Lafayette, Ind, He was trainbound iu that city ono day, and on inquiring his way to church a boy pointed out tho First Presbyterian and incidentally remarked that it was to bo sold for dobt. This influenced Colonel Shepard to attend services thero, and ho dropped a $20 bill on the contribution plate. After the services he made the acquaintance of tho pastor, and before leaving the city he deposited with him a lottor which he enjoined should not be opened until the next Thursday evening prayer meeting. This letter contained a check for $300. With this as a nnclons the congregation lifted a debt of some thing over $0,000. Indianapolis News. Lime Juice and the role. We are glad to be able to state that, warned by the fate of the Nares expedi tion, Dr. N onsen .us determined to carry with him an ample supply of concen trated lime juice in hisarctio expedition. Notwithstanding the angry feelings which were arousod some years ago by our demonstration that the failure of the Nares expedition was largely due to the neglect of the lime juice ration and the consequent outbreak of scurvy in the ex ploring party which was aiming at the north pole, it is now an accepted axiom that the "north polo will never be reached without lime juice," so that the concentration of that requisite to econo biizo space and carriage will be a matter of great importance.
