Seme Fulillled Dreams.
Richard Procter in liclgravi.i.
Dickens once had a, dream which was
fulfilled, at least te his own satisfaction.
"Here." he wrete en May 30, 1803, " is a
cuiieus ca.se at first hand. On Thursday
nicht last week, being at the office here,"
in Londen, "I di earned that I saw a lady
in a ted shawl with her back toward nie,
whom I supposed te be E. On her turn
in"; reuud I found that I didn't knew her,
and she said, 'I am Miss Nanicr." All
the time I was rtrcssimj next morning I
thought, 'What a preposterous thing te
have se very distinct a dream about noth
ing ! And why Miss XapierC-1 for I never
heard of any Miss Napier.' That same
Friday night I read. After the reading
came into my retiring room Mary Beyle
and her brother, and the lady in the red
shawl, whom they presented as 'Miss Na
pier.' These are all the circumstances
exactly told." This was probably
a case of unconscious cerebration.
Dickens had no doubt really seen
the lady, and been told that she
was Miss Napier, when his attention was
occupied with ether matters. There
would be nothing unusual in his dreaming
about a person whom he had thus seen
without noticing. Of course it was an odd
coincidence that the lady of whom he had
thus dreamed should be introduced te him
seen after. But such coincidences arc net
infrequent. Te suppose that Dickens had
been specially warned in; a dream about
se nnimpeitant a matter as his introduc
tion te Miss Napier would be absurd, for
whether fulfilled or unfulfilled, the dream
was, as Dickens himself described
it, a very distinct dream about nothing.
Far different in this respect was the
strange dicam which President Lincoln
had the night bafeie he was shot. If the
story was ti uly told by Mr. Stanten te
Dickens, the case is one of the
most curious ou record. Dickens
told it thus in a letter te Jehn
Ferster : "On the afternoon of the day en
which the president was shot, there was a
cabinet council, at which he presided. Mr.
Stanten, being at the time commander-in-chief
of the Northern troops that were
concentrated about here, at rived rather
late. Indeed, they were waiting for him,
and en his entering the room the presi
dent broke ell'iu something he was saying,
and remarked, ' Let us proceed te busi
ness, gentlemen.' Mr. Stanten then no
ticed with surprise that the president sat
with an air ei dignity in his chair, instead
of lolling about in the most ungainly atti
tudes, as his iuvai iable custom was ; and
that instead of telling irrelevant and ques
tionable stories, he was giave and calm,
and quite a diifereut man. Mr. Stanten,
en leaving the council with the attorney
general, said te him, ' That is the most
satisfactory cabiuet meeting I have at
tended for many a long day, What an
extraordinary change in Mr. Lincoln !'
The attorney general replied, Wcall saw
it before you c.une in. While we were
waiting for you,' he said, with his chin
down en his bieast, ' Gentleman, some
thing very extraordinary is going te hap
pen, and that very seen.' Te which the
attorney-general had observed, ' Something
geed, sir, I hope?' when the president
answered very gravely, ' I don't knew ;
I don't knew. But it will happen,
and sheitly, tee." As they were all
impressed by his manner, the attorney
general took him up again. ' Have you
received any information, sir, net yet dis
closed te us ?' ' Ne, answered the president,
'but I have had a dicam. And I have new
had the same dream three times. Once ou
the night picceding the battle of Bull Run.
Once en the night preceding such another'
(naming a battle also net favorable te the
Neith)! His chin satik en his breast
again, and he sat reflecting. Might one
ask the nature of this dream sir ?" said
the attorney-general. 'Well,' replied the
president without lifting his head or
changing his attitude, ' I am en a great
bread rolling river and I am in a beat
and I drift ! ami I drift ! but this is net
business,' suddenly raising his face and
looking round the table as Mr. Stanten
eutercd, ' let us proceed te busiuess, gen-
men.' Mr. btanten and the attorney gen
eral s-aid, as they walked en together, it
would be curious te notice whether any
thing ensued en this, and they agreed te
notice. He was shot that night." Here
the dream itself was net remarkable ; it
was such a one as might readily be dream
ed by a man from the Western states who
had been often en bread rolling rivers.
Ner was its recurrence remarkable. The
noteworthy peiut was the occurrence of
this dream three several times, and (as
may be presumed from the effect which
the dream produced en its third recur
rence) these three times only, en the night
preceding a great misfortune for the cause
of the Neith.
Let the Banks Stand Frem Under.
N. T. World.
The financial policy of the debt paying
people of the United States has been pro
claimed with an unanimity seldom wit
nessed, and yet a small knot of bank offi
cers, without even consulting the wishes
of their stockholders, have undertaken te
notify the government and the people of
the United States that they, the bank offi
cers, and ucither the government nor yet
the people, shall dictate the financial
policy of this nation of fifty millions of
souls. We have an implicit reliance en
the geed temper of our citizens, and we
cannot doubt that the representatives of
the people will be loyal te their own sense
of right and justice. It is net probable
that the natural resentment of the Legis
lature against this attempted conspiracy
will extend te a condemnation of the
whole banking system, which, as we have
frequently shown in these columns, has se
many qualities which commend it te the
general public. But we have no doubt at
the same time that when the existing in
dignation has cooled off, these conspira
tors against the prosperity and the credit
of the republic will be subjected te such
temperate and wholesome discipline as
shall be a warning te them and te their
kind for many years te ceme.
An Empress Huntress.
Why Ireland Se Cheerfully Surrenders te
England the Hener of Entertaining an
Imperial Guest.
Tha Austrian empress is passionately
fend of riding after the hounds, and few of
the fair Euglish Nimreds can better fel -low
peer Reyuaid ou a " cress country "
chase, or oftener be "in at the death."
Fer several years her majesty has gene te
Ireland for the hunting season, and there,
in the wild, rugged district of Meath, en
jeyed her faverits pastime te the top of
uer inclination. Owing te the uistmbed
state of the country, the empress will net
go te Ireland this year, but will hunt in
the Shrepshire district. She will stay at
Combermere abbey, and the inhabitants of
the neighboring town of Whitchurch are
much elated at the prospect of having a
real live empress among them. The Meath
ladies were equally delighted te have the
empress with them when she fiist visited
Ireland, but their enthusiasm has censid
erably cooled of late, s.nl they de net
appear te be much distressed at the idea
of the empress piefcriing Shrepshiic te
Meath. By disregardim: all fatigue and
giving no thought te the distance at which
" meets " were held, her majesty used te
manage te be in the hunting field five or
six days a week. As a rule, she arrived
in her brougham half an hour before
hand, and having inquired whose
house was nearest te the lic'd,
would drive up ami request permission
te put en her riding habit in the house.
Meath is a purely agricultural county, and
contains many large landed piopticters
whose wives and daughters consider them
selves of some social standing. At first,
having an empress dropping in piemis j
cueusly was a charming break in the men.-1
oteuy of Irish rural life ; but it was found
lrequentiy te be inconvenient te be asked
ler the use of a spare room at a moment's
notice. The empress was always early,
and Irish housemaids are proverbially late
in discharging daily dutie ;, and no lady
likes te have visiteis come and ii'id her
house in disorder. The empress never used
te oppress her hostess with elfiihivc thanks
for bespitality,but quietly accepted it as a
matter of course, a bearing that at first
flattered Hibernian notions. This perfect
freedom from feeling obligations tee deep
ly, however, had its drawbacks. It is net
always convenient te have an empiess
walking about your house without cere
mony. She used te poke her nec into the
dairies, intrude iute the kitchens, and
generally conduct herself like a district
visitor or tract distributor.
Any one who has traveled in Ireland
must have noticed with what pardonable
pride the Irish put the best side out. If a
man have a large house, and only a .-mall
sum te spare te keep it in order, you may i
be sure that the front of the house is wall
looked after, whatever becomes of the
back. After putting en her riding habit, I
the empress preferred te mount in tin
yard behind the house, rather th m in ',
front, a course which frequently ignited
in a disclosure of her host's iinpoi-.iiiie-.ity i
or untidy habits. It was net pleasant t
have the dilapidated rear of a fair-seeming
mansion, with its tumble-down outheu.es
and decayed offices, exhibited te a lire
empress and her friends; r.nd i:u weist
feature of the iutlictieu was that the
whole of the empress' own suite, and also
her guests ladies as well as gentlemen
required the same .iccomme'lation a-: she
did herself. Thus, it has cinmi about
that Ireland gladly makes ever te England
the honor of entertaining this impeiial
gues t.
What Steel Kaii Have Veiw.
Xew Yerk Sun.
The man who has done mere thau any
ether liviug' person te break down the
British aristocracy is Heuiy Bessemer, ne-1
cording te a writer iu the Fortnightly lie- j
view. And he has done it by inventing his
process for the manufacture of steel, for
it has given railroad steel rails as a cheap
rate. i
The intioduetieu of steel rails has un-
questionably given gieat impetus te t lie
railway business. They have enabled the i
reads te obtain better and mere enduring '
tracks, en which heavier locomotives
drawing mere extensive trains can be run,
and ever which freight can be profitably ',
carried at rates much lower than these I
charged in the days when it en rails alone
were available. ,
Steel rails, accordingly, hive enormous
ly cheapened railroad transportation. Even I
under the heaviest traffic they last live or
ten times as long as the best of iron rails, I
and from twenty te iilty limes as long as i
many of the rails which were formerly laid '
ou our tracks.
Mr. Charles B. Dudley, the chemist of
the Pennsylvania railroad, for instance
has lately published a lepert en the weir-
nig power ei sieei raws, wuicu siiijws mas
ou level tracks, ever which five millions of
tens are carried vcarlv. thev will last mere
than forty one years, while en the average j
under all conditions en that read, their en
durance is ever twenty years. He assumes,
for the purposes of his calculation, that a
rail is worn out when it has lest eight
pounds of metal per yard, though iu the
in the case improved patterns a less of
from ten te fourteen pounds a yard may
be borne before the rail is iu a state te be
condemned. This, of course, includes
only perfect rails, which fail from abso
lutely wearing out ; net from fraetuic due
te flaws in their manufature or imprepsr
chemical composition.
Iren rails, en the contrary, hal te bj
frequently renewed where the traffic was
large, and te be always tenderly nursed.
Repairs ware very expensive in propeitiou
and the proportionate cost of maintaining
the reads was greater than new, when the
tracks are comparatively permanent, even
though tbe traffic is of the heaviest.
On the average, the rates of freight per
ten per mile ou our principal railroads in
1868 were mere thau twice what they arc
new, and in several cases they were mere
than three times as much. And the I'rin
cipal cause of this lowering of rates his
been the introduction of steel rails. They
have rendered it possible for the reada te
carry far mero freight, and at a much less
cost per ten than would have been remun
erative with iron tracks. This gees far te
explain why the railway business is new,
as a rule, mere profitable than it was ever
before in its history, though freights are
se much lower than ten or twenty years
age.
Lewer freights, due te mero cheaply
maintained railroads, have enabled our
Western farmers te tlelivcr their grain ''at
a marvelously cheap rate at Bosten, Balti
mere, Pertlaud and New Yerk," whence
it rapidly finds its way te England, where
it undersells the grain raised en English
estates. Therefore, according te the Fort
nightly Review, Bessemer steel has done
mere than anything else te break down
the mainstay of the aristocracy, which is
rent derived from great landed posses
sions. American competition ha3 half
rained the struggling English farmer, and
he is unable te stand the heavy exactions
of his aristocratic landlord.
That is one view of the case. The de
velopment of our railroad system may
have hurt for the time the English aristec
racy, but it has also bred here a plutocra
cy of railroad managers aud stock gam
blers ; and this plutoeraoy corrupts legis
lation, subsidizes the. press, and would
control the supreme court itself.
The Car of State
In W.'ilcli Garfield Rides te Washington.
The outside is finished in regular Pull
raau style, patent platforms, couplings,
wheels and all complete. The interior is
elegantly furnished and finished. At each
end there is a drawing room of comfort
able dimensions, surrounded with plate
windows. The decoration of these draw
ing rooms arc done iu the Eastlake style,
rendered mere odd by many beautiful de
signs. Next te the drawing room, in the
front of the car, is a private sleeping
apaitmcnt, set aside for the use of the
president. Adjoining this apartment are
toilet rooms, dressing chambers, ward
robes ;uid everything necessary for con
venience and comfort. Next te this is a
sitting room supplied with berths
for the accommodation el guests The
culinary department, though it is crowded
in a small space represents everything
necessary for perfection in that most use
ful ait. The car has been lelittel
throughout with a new body brussels car
pet of Egyptian pattern, with olive
groundwork and old geld, maroon and
black as the predominating colors, the
whole making a snug and comfortable tit.
The sleeping chamber has received special
care. Cretonne lambrequins, with old
geld and sage trimmings and ponse ball
fringe, suspended en ebony reds, with gilt
lilies aud brackets, adorn each window.
Seatteicd throughout the car are Siuga Siuga
puie aud Kruruchie rugs of the finest
quality in great profusion. Additional
cil'cct is produced by arranging rare and
beautiful flowers in proper places iu the
car, and the furniture throughout is as
elegant as is found iu the luxurious dress
ing rooms.
Beeth ami the Lord's Prayer.
When the elder Beeth was residing iu
Baltimore, a pious, urbane old gentleman
of that city, hearing of his wonderful pow
er of elocution, one day invited him te
dinner, although deprecating the stage
and theatrical performances. A. large com
pany sat down at the table, and, en return
ing te the drawing room, one of them asked
Beeth :i- a special favor te them all, te
repeat the Lord's Prayer. He signified his
willingness te gratify them and all eyes
were lixed upon him. He slowly and
reverently arose from his chair, trembling
with the burden of two great conceptions.
He had te realize the character, attributes
and nresenen of t.hn Aliniditv lii-inir hn !
was te addrcs. He was te transform him
self iute a peer, sinning, stumbling, be
nighted, needy suppliant, offering hemage
asking bread, pardon, light and guidance,
Says one of the company who was pros
cut :
" It was wonderful te watch the play of
emotion that convulsed his countenance,
lie became deadly pale, and his eyes,
turned tremblingly upward, were wet
with tears. As yet he had net spoken. The
siieuee could be felt ; it had become abso
lutely nainful. until at last the sncll was
broken, as if by an electric shock, as his I
rieu-tened voice syllabled forth, Our
Fathet, which ait in heaven,' with a pa
thos and fervid solemnity which tin ille.l
all hearts. He finished ; the silei:c3 con
tinued ; net a voice was heard ; net a
muscle moved iu this rapt audience until
fiein a remote corner of the room a sub
dued sob washeard.and the old gentleman
(the host) stepped forward with stream
ing eyes aud tottering frame aud seized
lioeth by the hand. ' Sir,' said he, in
broken accents, ' you have afforded inc a
pleasure for which my whele future life
will feel grateful. lam an old man, aud
every day, from my boyhood te the pres
ent time, 1 have repeated the
Leid's Prayer; but 1 never heard
it before, never !' Yeu are right,'
replied Beeth. ' Te icad that prayer as
it should be read, caused me the severest
study aud labor for thirty years, and I am
far fiein satisfied with my rendering that
wonderful production. Net one person
iu ten thousand cempichciids hew much
beauty, tenderness aud grandeifr can be
condensed in a space se simple. The
prayer itself sufficiently illustrates the
ttuth of the Bible and stamps upon it the
sc.il of divinity.' "
The Creameries.
A Doylestown correspondent of the
' '.s states that, in Bucks county, twenty
sit creameries, of a capacity ei 10,0(J0
pounds of milk per day each, have been
established since the first one was put in
operation at Quakertown, iu August,
1S79. He thinks there arc as many mere
in Montgomery county, besides ether
puts of the state east of the Blue meuii
t lius. The creameries manufacture both
butter and cheese, the latter being a com
paratively new factory product for South Seuth
en stern Pennsylvania. The creamery
business was developed in Vermont and
New Yerk iu dairy regions which did net
have as geed a home market for butter as
the counties surrounding Philadelphia,
but they have built up such au immense
trade, foreign and domestic, in cheese,
that it has become worth while for Penn
sylvania te join them in the business.
The Bu -ks county creameries are making
butter aud cheese at the rate of six bun
dled and fifty tens of butter and two
thousand tens of cheese per annum, but
the business h se new that few of the
cicamericshavc been in operation a whole
year. The economics of the factory sys
tein brought te bear en tbe farm are sure
te have a geed effect, and indeed the
cheese product represents in itself almost
a pure gain, since ic is made of skimmed
milk. The cost of a creamery is said te
be about $0,000, and the running expenses
about $10 a day for a capacity of 10,00fJ
pounds of milk daily.
