First Proofs.
A Batch of the Amusing Errors of the In
telligent Compositor.
A Louden paper says : Frem a collec
tion of what are termed first proofs, or
slips containing the mistakes of the news
paper compositor before they come under
the notice of the reviser, we cull a few
which show the ludicrous nature of prin
ters' errors.
"In the same speech Mr. Gladstone
dwelt en the riht which England had
earned by expenditure of bleed and treas
ure te interfere in Turkish provinces ; but
new, with a leopard and a hound, he has
formulated a plan for making the Christian
provinces practically autonomous." The
conversion of a leap and a beuud into a
leopard and a hound must have taxed the
ingenuity of the compositor, who must
have set up the next paragraph, in which
we read that "the Christian religion
strictly enjoins mahogany," instead of
"monogamy."
Referring te one of Mr. E. A. Freeman's
queer political notions, a writer is made
accountable for sayinjr, "Ceminjr as it
does from one who has gained real dis
tinction as a barbarian," when it is obvi
ous he wrote "historian." In the same
article we read, "It is almost incredible
that in spite of these facts the ex-premier
should have ventured te tell even a noisy
snob that the air of the government is,"
etc. Here, of course, the word should be
"mob," while when Mr. Gladstone is rep
resented as being described by one of his
admirers as "the spout of the Liberal
party," we should understand " spirit" te
be intended.
We proceed te quote, italicising the error
and quoting the right word within brackets:
"The danger of mistaking the poisonous,
forms of mushroom for these which are
net only edible, but wholesome and nutri
tious, stands in the way of a mere general
acceptance of the fingers fungus as an
article of feed." "On
their return they proceeded te make bread
with the recently purchased flour, and,
haying partaken of it, the pair at once
became delicious delirious."
" In August, 1863, when Mr. Wigan
was lessee of the Olympic theatre, he
brought out there a piece called Prince
Carnival by a Man Camaralzaman."
The compositor is a great master of sur
prise. He is ready te announce in one
sentence that "if the truth Turk cannot
held Constantinople it will fall te the let
of some Aryan power te de se," and in the
next proceeds te explain that "the civili
zation of the nineteenth century is a coun
try organ purely Aryan development."
In announcing that the meeting of the
picked athletes of England and Ireland
took place, he is anxious te term them
"jriclded athletics." He is anxious te tell us
that since St. Albans has been converted
into an Episcopal See, steps have been
taken te obtain for it the dignity of deity
a city ; he is net abashed when he puts
into type the announcement that "a water
man rowing by at the time of the occur
rence was knocked down and one of his
cars ears was carried at least thirty
yards away ; " or that " Archdeacon Dcui Dcui
sen presented te convocation tee grace a
mind two gravamina ;" or that "there
was no longer a chairman Chinaman in
Kashgar in 18G7. "
Shere are a few ethers of his exploits
with which we shall conclude. "The
Perte undertook net te establish a ficti
tious bleckJiead blockade."
"The president te-day delivered his tri
angular inaugural address."
" With him patriotism has ceased te be a
visitor virtue." "The action
of the salt water affects the steel se rapidly
thatthepocketkmfe,aftertweor three days
immersion is miserable unserviceable. ''
" He challenged the government
te state their intentions as te whether they
meant te annex territory or te support
some ruler whose power would depend en
British banquets bayonets."
" During a gale yesterday morning a fish
ing smack was wretched wrecked at the
mouth of the Humber."
With the following exquisite bil dra
matic criticism we leave the subject :
" The manner in which she gathered in
her embrace the dying head, and ap
proached her lips te these of her lever, te
shrink back with fear and horror from the
smell of the person poison and the pres
ence of death, was admirable."
Inequalities of Representation.
Although "gerrymander" takes its
name from a native of the Bay state and
its principle is supposed te ewe its origin
te Massachusetts, the custom is net un un
knew in English politics. British Parlia
mentary representation is based en coun
ties in part, and in part en cities, boroughs,
districts and universities. Population has
nothing te de with it, nor has proportion
of property or of taxable income, although
it is frequently said that property is an
important factor.
Lancashire, with 1,1G1,381 inhabitants,
is represented as a county by eight mem
bers, while the three counties of Bedford,
Berks and Bucks, with but 384,3G0
(rather less than a third) have the same
number. Cambridge and Chester, with
520,775 inhabitants (less than half the
population of Lancashire), have nine mem
ber against Lancashire's eight.
The great city of Liverpool, with its
population of 493,404, has three members,
while the boroughs of Calne, Everham' and
Northallerton, with about 5,000 inhab
itants apiece, have their three members
as many as Liverpool, which has mere than
thirty times as many people and mere
than sixty times the amount of property
assessments. Manchester, with 379, 374 in
habitants, has but three members, while
the corporation of the City of Londen (net
the metropolitan city, but the old city cor
poration) with but 74,897 inhabitants, has
four members. 229 boroughs, districts,
cities, kc, have hce hundred and ninety ninety
tice (292) members of Parliament for 5,
345,071 inhabitants, while 15 cities, with a
population of 5,237,210 have but thhty
tive (members). This, however, bad as it
is, is net by a long way the most forcible
presentation of the case that can be made
There are 101 boroughs, districts and cities
with an aggregrte of 3,491,929 inhabitants
and and about $218,000,000 of assessments,
that have 24C members of Parliament,
while CO ether cities, boroughs, &c, with
a population of 9,506,241 inhabitants, and
assessments amounting te $l,231,t)00,000,
have but 114 members.
A Geed Recerd.
Yesterday that popular newspaper and
standard agricultural journal, the Ger Ger
mantewn Telegraph, celebrated its fiftieth
anniversary. Its career has been one of
almost unrivaled prosperity. Being always
careful te deserve success, it has always
been se fertunete as te command it, and
it was never a better paper nor better ap
preciated than it is te-day. The Telegraph
is what Majer Philip R. Freas, its founder
and editor has made it. He established it
fifty years age, and he has conducted it
ever since with an ability which is attested
by the results. In recent years, tee, it has
been strengthened by the vigorous young
er bleed of the son and partner of the
founder of the paper Mr. Jehn Freas
who inherits the excellence and abilities
of his distinguished parent.
We Told l'eu Se.
Ictelligekcer, Feb. 2S.
We venture a prediction : The Repub
lican county committee will agree te have
national delegates elected at the primarM;
anti-Grant delegates will be chosen ; the
Republican masses here will pronounce for
Blame; their delegates will net be ad
mitted te the convention. Thus every
body will have a taste of the feast of
crew.
The Bull Ring Organ Admits It.
Examiner, March 3.
We think we can, "with a degree of as
surance, net at all presumptuous, say that
the "Ring" majority of the county com
mittee mil net interpose any objection, or
attempt te deprive these who may want te
express their personal preference for presi
dent, or even vote for delegates.
..Melancholy Historical Events.
New Era, March 3.
When, in 1S68, the Republican county
committee, under the lead of Jehn A.
Hiestand, in violation of the rules and
precedents of the party, "elected" him
self and ether delegates te the state and
national conventions, the minority seceded,
issued a call for primary mcetiugs, ap
pealed te the people in pretest which they
were signing by the thousand, until, see
ing that the sovereign voters "meant
business," a cenfesence of the machine
managers was called te decide what they
should de about it. Then, as new, Mr.
Hiestand was for treating the movement
of the people with contempt, declaring
that "the election of another set of dele
gates te the Chicago convention from this
county need net give the friends of the
delegates selected by the committee the
least concern ; it might help some of the
'boys,'" &c. But the clear head of
Majer Wiley saw it in a different light. He
settled it by declaring, with an emphasis
that could net be misunderstood by these
who knew him B-b-eys you've get te come
down! And "come down" they did.
They all resigned, had the committee re
convened, adopted the call of the minority
for a primary election, and the people re
elected Majer Wiley, who had "come
down " gracefully, as one of their state
delegates, but invited Mr. Hiestand te stay
at home from Chicago.
Obituary.
Death of C. 15, Dreckway.
The well-known Democratic politician
subject of this sketch, died in Bloeinsburg
en Tuesday, after a period of failing
health. Mr. Brockway was born in Ber
wick, April 1, 1840, and was of New Eng
land parentage. In his boyhood he drove
en the canals and worked in the harvest
fields. His first educational advantages
came te him from connection with the fam
ily of ex-Senater Buckalew. He was chief
clerk m the attorney general's office at
Harrisburg in 1858, and private secretary
te Mr. Buckalew when that gentleman
was minister te Ecuador in 1839. The
following winter he taught school in Col
umbia county and in 1860 returned te
Bloeinsburg and began te read law. He
was the first man te enlist in Bloeinsburg
in 1861, and served three years iii
Battery F, First Pennsylvania Light
Artillery, first as a private and
then consecutively as sergeant and Lieu
tenant. During the retreat from the
second battle of Bull Run he was taken
prisoner and was removed thence te Libby
prison where he remained until exchanged.
He participated at Gettysburg and in all
the subsequent battles in Virginia, ending
with Petersburg. He was appointed as
sistant chief of artillery te General Haz
zard, and was subsequently sent a commis
sion as captain of his battery, which he
declined. He served in the lower house
of the state Legislature from 1872 te 1874.
He was a lawyer by profession and was
for many years one of the editors of the
Bloeinsburg Columbian, his connection
with which was only severed a few months
since. In 1878 he was a candidate for
Congress in the Eleventh district, and re
ceived 4,339 votes te 8,211 received by
Hen. Rebert Kletz. the sitting member,
and 8,116 by Gen. Charles Albright. There
was at the time a somewhat bitter dispute
between the adherents of Mr. Kletz and
these of Mr. Brockway as te which was
entitled te be considered the regular Dem
ocratic nominee.
The Beys 'Ritumctic Lessen.
Several men were gathered at the deer
of a blacksmith shop en Cass avenue, the
ether morning, when a schoolboy net
ever nine years of age, came along with
tears in his eyes, and one of the group
n sited
" What's the matter, boy fall down?"
" N-no ; but I've a hard 'rithinetic les les
eon and I expect te get I-licked," was the
answer.
"Let me sec, I used te be a king-bee en
fractions."
The man took the book, turned te the
page and read :
"Rule 1. Find the least common
multiple of the denominators of the frac
tions for the least common denominator.
Divide this least common denominator by
each denominator, and multiply both
terms of the fractions by the quotient ob
tained by each denominator."
He read the rule aloud and asked if
anyone could understand it. All shook
their heads, and he then continued :
"Well, new, I think I should go te
work and discover the least uncommon
agitator. I would then evolve a parallel
according te the intrinsic deviator and
punctuate the thermometer."
" Se would I ! " answered every man
in chorus, and one of them added : " I've
worked 'em out in that way a thousand
times."
Net one of the men, all of whom were in
business and had made money, could
understand the working of the rule, much
less work examples by it, and it was ex
pected that a nine-year-old 'boy should go
te the blackboard and de every sum off
hand. Detroit Free Press.
A Scared Churchman.
The rector of Trinity church, Quebec,
has seen a ghost in a bedchamber lately
tenanted by James Park, new deceasec'Jj
On the night in question, he had gene te
bed in geed health and spirits, and with a
clear conscience. What followed is given
as nearly as possible in his own words
About 2 a. m., he awoke, conscious of the
presence near him of a ghostly apparition.
He saw, plainly discernible, a figure in
human form, but with a most angelic
countenance, whose head was surrounded
by a hale of phosphoric light of exceeding
splendor, and who steed at the feet of the
bed facing him. A number of ether spirits
were evidently in the room, but were net
discernible, being obscured by the eclips
ing brightness of the central figure, which
remained standing in the ramc position
about half an hour. He cannot, or rather
dare net, say who the figure resembled,
whether the former occupant of the house
or one of his deceased relatives or friends.
He confesses te having his own opinion,
h. wever, as te the spirit's Identity. The
apparition gave him a communication, net
orally, but by signs. This message he took
down in Greek, fearing that anything writ
ten in the vulgar tongue might be read by
ethers. The purport of the cemmunica
tien he will net disclose till further develop
ments or instructions from the spirit
world.
Why They Stepped Him.
The ether night, when a certain Detroit
club had gathered in its hall, a member
announced the serious illness of one of the
officials. A second member at once moved
te the platform and said :
" Gentlemen, no one can regret this sad
news mere than I de. It seems te me that
the occasion calls for a few remarks ex
pressive of sympathy and coudelcnce. I
de net wish te occupy your valuable time,
but I feel it a duty te say of the ailing
brother "
Here a person came up stains and an
nounced that the person was dead. He had
just heard the news en the street.
"Very well, then," continued the
speaker, " remarks eulogistic of his many
virtues are certainly in order after this an
neuncement, and I can go ahead without
fear of transgressing upon the time of the
club. We all knew the deceased. We
were all familiar with his many noble traits
of character. A brother has died and a
king has fallen. It will be long cre we
Here another dilatory member put in an
appearance and announced that the person
referred te was net dead or even ill, but
was in perfect health. Without the least
change of countenance the speaker con
tinued :
" That being the ease, I deem it my duty
te indulge in a few remarks en the happi
ness we all must feel at knowing that our
brother still lives. Life is but a span, and
man cometh up like a flower and is cut
down. The familiar faces beside us te-day
may rest in the grave te morrow. Death
comes se silently and swiftly that "
Here the person himself entered the hall,
having been detained beyond the usual
time by some occurrence en the street.
The speaker didn't seem in the least put
out, but waved his hand around the hall
and said :
" I certainly am net tresspassing upon
the valuable time of the club when I say
that we all rejoice te see our brother here.
I am new mere than ever convinced that I
should indulge in a few remarks. I will
