"Work ol tlie Wcallicr Hurt-am General Ilnzpn, the chief sigrml officer of the army, in his antiuul report, states that the signal fiervico lias greatly increased iis usefulness since Inst year in spite of greater difficulties than were experienced since the organization of the -weather service. Al though the work of the corps has grown, there are fewer officers to perform it, and for the fiscal year of 1HS3 there is $55,000 less for observation and report of Btorins than wns actually expended in 18K0, 1881 or 1882. The report shows the insuOiciency of the force employed to do the work required, and a strong appeal is made for an additional force in order to meet the nctual require ments of the service. Extra men are par ticularly needed for "indication" work and for the inspection service. The report as cribes the difficulties of the service to the defective organization of the corpB and re news the rocominendotion of last year that the corps be made a distinct branch of the army aud have its own complement of offi cers. To the commercial and agricultural inter ests of the country, eleven new stations have been added, special reports are made for the cotton and tobacco growing regions of the country, aud the means for giving warnings to the cattle raisers of Texas against the ap proach of "northers" have been improved, and it is expected that the increased work is to go on, and that the service is to con tinue meeting the growing demands of the country upon it with a smaller appropriation than it has had for a number of years. Ex periments have been made during the year with a view of increasing the value of the farmers' bulletin by the addition of a weather chart of the United States, and it is believed that in a short time these ch,vrta may be suc cessfully reproduced on the farmers' bulle tin. With each year the popular knowledge of the uses of this bulletin enables those in terested in agriculture to judge of the correct ness of the forecasts, and with the addition of the proposed weather map, individuals will be able to make correct predictions of the weather for localities which it U impossible to provide for in the brief sen tence which expresses the prevailing weather in the stations anticipated for an entire dis trict. It is contemplated, as the work of the office advances, to add to this bulletin brief instructions for the use of instruments, which may hereafter be furnished for local observers. The railway bulletin service has proved of great value during the past year. The system of frost warnings for the benefit of the sugar interests in Louisiana has been continued. During the coming year it has been proposed to telegraph frost warnings direct from the signal office to all telegruph offices in the sugar growing section. The re port describes the operations of the different branches of the service and states that it is necessary that a better grade and pay than that of sergeant be provided for the oldest and best men of the service. A recommen dation is made for an increase of fifty clerks for the central office to carry on the cotton belt work, the display of frost warnings, the extension of telegraph lines and other work. A Trnslcnl Duel. The Paris Charivari gives the fol lowing history ot a famous tragical duel : rible fire-paters of t lie. Restoration, had taken shelter from the rain one even ing under the gallery of the Pano ramas. A young medical student passes 1 iv, with his sweetheart on his arm ; he imagines that the colonel stares insolently at her, and forthwith slaps the colonel's face. The latter very coolly produces his card, demands that of the man who thus insulted him, and observes as he receives it: "You do not know what you have done, young man ; vou have struck Colonel 1) y." The student turned pale on hearing that terrible name. Nevertheless, as he is a man of courage, the duel is agreed upon. In order to equalize the chances, pistols are chosen. The ad versaries were posted at twenty paces apart, with permission to shoot as they pleased, and to mlvauuo cliiso tu out another. The student raises his weapon, takes good long aim at the colonel, and misses him. The colonel advances with steady strides, comes up to his adversary, places his hand upon the lad's breast, and after a moment's silence, exclaims : ." This heart does not beat too quick ly, considering it is the heart of a man who is going to die." Then he places the muzzle of his pistol to the young man's forehead and blows his brains out. How to Judge a Person by tho Walk. Careless persons are forever stub binir their toes. Unstable persons walk fast and slow nv turns-. Fun-loving persons have a kind of seitisn ones, toe m. Cross persons are very apt to hit tneir knees together. ' Good-natured persons snap their lingers and thumbs every iew steps. Modest persons generally step very swiitlv tor tear ol being observed. Calculating people generally walk with their hands in their pockets and tneir heads slightlv inclined. Lazy persons scrape loosely with their hands, and are first on one side of the walk and then on the other. Very strong-minded persons place tneir toes directly in trout ot them and have a kind ot a stamp movement. "Wide-awake persons "toe out" and have a long swing of their arms, while the hands move about miscellaneously Timid persona often step oil the sidewalk on meeting another, and al ways go around the stone instead of stepping over it. Observing persons move slowly ; their heads move alternatively from side to side, while they occasionally stop and turn around. Careful persons lift their feet high and place them down slowly, and pick up some little obstruction aud place it quietly by the side ot the walk. Habits of the Codfish. A correspondent of the New York Post says that the codfish frequents " the table lands of the sea." The cod fish no doubt does this to secure as nearly as possible a dry, bracing at mosphere. This pure air of the sub marine table lands gives to the codfish that breadth of chest and depth of lungs which we have always noticed. The glad, free smile of the codfish is largely attributed to the exhilaration of this oceanic altitoodleum. The correspondent further says that the cod subsists largely on the sea cherry. Those who have not had the pleasure of seeing the codfish climb the sea cherry tree in search of food, or clubbing the fruit from the heavily laden branches with chunks of coral, have missed a very fine sight. The codfish, when at home rambling through the submarine forests, does not wear hi3 vest unbuttoned, as he does while loafing around the grocery stores of the United States. Boomer ang. The opinion of an eminent analyst is quoted to show that potatoes pro duce symptoms of poisoning more fre quently than we suspect, especially among people whose diet is chiefly these vegetables.
