A native and old resident of Washing ton tells the following anecdote which was enrrent and credited in Washington during the brief administration of Presi dent Harrison, who was called the "Cin linnatus of the West "by the Whigs, and "Granny llarrisoo" by the Democrats. When be came to Washington to be in augurated, no one waa surprised at the plain looks and simple manner of the old hero, because the pictures of the log cab in in which he bad lived were common during the campaign as illustrating his simple ha bib. No, nor were tbey incred ulous of the story they soon heard of him. It seem that there was no cow, or no aatLractory cow, at the White House, so Uie old cx-fkruier made inquiries), and learned that Saturday waa the day when the drovers came in from the country to the lUrsliaiarket to sell their cattle. Con se uent!y, early on Saturday morning President Harrison, instead of sending a servant, arose and walked down to the market. Therj he found cows without number. He soon made a trade with a burly Montgomery county drover, by which he lecame tlie poe-eaior of a tine " tur haiu. " Where shall I drive it, sir?" inquired the drover, who did not recognise the President. "To the White House. I will show yoa the way," replied President Harri son. " Why, you don't mean to say, my friend, that you've bought this beast lor old (iranny Harrison?" demanded the drover. " Ye," replied the old bero, withont ever showing the resentment that a smaller man might have thought neces sary. The drover left his cattle in the care of his son and turned the " Durham " out on the avenue, where he and the Presi dent walked Bide by side behind the row guiding her way. The President, at the inside, gently raised his slick when suky made an effort to promenade the side walk, and the drover flourished bis whip when she threatened to break into the middle of the street. " I'm a Democrat myself," the drover volunteered to inform his companion, and voted for old Van, of course ; but the other day, at the inauguration, ha ! ha ! ha! I'll be doggoned if I didn't throw np my hat and hurrah for Granny Harrison with the best on 'em. Couldn't help it, somehow." "Thank you," said the President. "Oh! you're a Whig! Bat I might a known that by you're bavin' a alteration in the White House, as I s'pose ye have, hain't you T " Yes," said tiie President. " What be you there now ? The gar dener ?'' " No." "Coachman, then, or body servant?' "Neither! 1 suppose I may call my self a general servant."

About a month ago Harry was arrested and confessed to having had a hand in five burglaries. His mother promised to care for him and keep him out of mischitf, and Justice kenttrn let him go home. Then he waa 11 dressed in a new suit of clothes, aiCa jaunty sailor shirt and clean linen. The other dty he again made hie appearand- in the Chicago Av enue Polit-e Court. He was caught Monday night in a butcher shop at No. 24:5 Michigan street and had just succeed ed in emptying the till. The littie cul prit refused to talk when questioned by the Court, and showed not the slightest emotion. He did not look like the boy a ho was in the station a month ago. 11 ia face was dirty and his new suit in rags. He refused to say where he had been, an 1 when the ollicer said Harry had committed several recent burglaries, the youthful prisoner denied, with all the bravado of an old-time thief, having made any such admission.

Asokx, believed to be th grandson of the Indian sovereign whose realm.) were invaded by Alexander th great, becama a convert to Buddhism, and in extending that form of religion enacted a part an alogous to that of Constantino in estab lishing Christianity. About fifteen hun dred years aso he disiribnted morse'is of the bones of the saints to all kinj with whom he was in al!Unee, and a IVmre in tiuzeran resolved that his relic should last while time endured. ll! inclosad it in a bottle of oId, and th.tt in a ca-iket of silver, s;nj that in a vessel of copper, and that in a bowl of b.ike 1 clay a substance as durable as th.; earth of the world and that in a cotf.-r of clay.stoae, and that in a hollow square of sandstone and that, again, in a pyramid of brick more than eighty feet hi,'1!, and at the base the same thickness; and finally, as we understand a description only on this point obscure, faced the entire structure with stone blocks. The prince did not spend all that thought and labor and treasure only to honor his relic ; he meant to preserve it as long as In lui or Time itself should last, ami will did he plan that he rucceeded ia preserving it for fifteen hundred years. His dynasty ceased an I was even for gotten, his people changed their creed and ceased to worship Buddha, his clear ances were abandoned by human being and the jungle spread its obliterating mantle over roads and plain pyramid, and still the relic remained as safe in its golden bottle as it w:w when the prince placed it there. And there the British arch.cologist, Mr. Campbell, found it only a few weeks since, the morsel of bone uncalcined, the gild of the bottle as bright as ever, the silver casket only tarnished, the copper covering only rust ed, the boal of baked clay unchanged, as it would be if left there till the world cooled, the claystone colTer unbroken, the sandstone cavity nnvioalated, the pyramid still resistins climate and time, and men who hail in some past age sought treasure in iu inferior.

WHAT TUB LEAD1SU EDITOR or STATE 8A" Or PGOltlBIflO.f. Just three yars ago Rhode I.-Iand adopted a prohibitory amendment to its Constitution similar to that which is to come before the people of Pennsylvania on the ISth of June. This is what the leading editors of that State say of the practical working of constitutional pro hibition : TFIE LAW SoT EMFOBlEO. The law has not heen enforced, and there has been no general and determin ed effort in that direction, although the courts have dealt fairly with the subject. Newport (R. I.) AVirtt. Dlil'SKISSESS HAS INXUEASEn. I have every reason to believe that drunkenness and crime have increased since constitutional prohibition went into effect in this State. Prohibition. lias not been enforced for the reason that it is against the sentiment of the majority. The revenues of the city have been inju riously affected by it. Ectmhj -Ye, Pawtucket, P.. I. FREE KI M. The failure to enforce prohibition, I think, results from fear of loss of position by officials sworn to perform their duty, and the antipathy against prohibition, measured by the majority ".of voters wh; occasionally want a nip. We have had practicr.Uy free rum. E. F Corbett, edi tor Sumlug IlVif, Providence, R. I. now THE law was .not ESKOtt nr. After the law was passed many of its ardent promoters evidently considered their wot k accomplished, and left the entbicement to .look after itself. For a ft w days there was a decided lull in the liquor business ; saloons were clotted and some of!he largest dealers left the State, and it looked as though we were to have prohibition in fact, as well as in name. But this Arcadian state of things did net last. The saloon keepers grew bolder as they saw that the otlicials were not pro ceeding against theiu with much spirit and gradually ait that ever did sell a ere hard at it again, reinforced by hundreds of kitchen bar-room recruit. The set ter system was tried, with no other re sult than to disgust people with its work ings. A change was made in the bead of the State police, and spasmodic raiding took the place of spotting. One proved about as elective as the other. An t so the thing has drifted along in the rtio.t inefiicient and unbusinesslike way. A few liq'ior dealers have btien sent tu Cranston, but an appalling number of ru ses have been side-tracked in the courts. lid ward F. Sibley, editor Tutu; Oiney ville, R. I. MORE SALOOXS, SIonE tlRVXK.s. Tlie law not having been enforced, more saloons, more drunks. It is possi ble to enforce it. but it has not been done. There are more saloons in this city to day than ever before, and numerous " kitchen dives." The cause of failure to enforce the law are olitics and boodle. Charles M. Newton, editor Uizt:t, Woonsocket, R. I. POSITIVELV INOPERATIVE. It has been proven that constitutional prohibition is positively inoperative and that legislating for a man's stomach is oue of the incongruities of the times. Under the law in this State drunken ness has increased to the extent that com plaint is made that the county jail is not large enjugli to contain the victims of Bacch us. The failure to enforce the law haslieen apparent because public opinion has lieen opposed to a system of hounding and SKjttLug and because injustice is done by palpable discrimination. The financial etbjct of the attempt iu tins State to enforce the law has been to de plete the public treasury to support a lot of lazy loafers under the guise of oliicers, who in some instances livve blackmailed the orfeudersagainst the law and brought the whole system of the Slate constabu lary into disrespect and disgrace. As re gards business, the law ha undoubtedly affected all classes of trade to a certain extent. Tlie intelligent sentiment of the State is against the enforcing of tlie so-called prohibitory law, an 1 while the people recognize that a man is entitled to his opinion, it is neither wise nor jjst that the majority should com-5 under the, ban of bis ideas. A far a constitutional prohibition is concerned as affc-cting the general wel fare of the State, it must be admitted that temperance, like religion, is out of place in polities, and the general welfare of the Slate is better with a license v s tem than under prohibition.

" I thiuk I liave made a very vainabio discovery, and I am anxious tiiai others : should also erjoy the benedt of it. For j nearly two years I have lieen surferin , s"p,T" r ' , lre.,uemiy nave not ,oie - si v more thin ont or two hours darmg the night.

I found the next morn- ing that I bad entoveil the best sleep I . , , ," ' . bad exrienne-.eil for over a month. ! attriimieil this at once to the peanut and determined to tiy them aaln the following evening. I did so, and a!) drank a glass of fresh, sweet milk after 1 had fin'itdied the ianuts. That night I slept still better, and now, for a S.rtnigh i t i. . ,.r .ii.. ,n..t. in.! lb- miikeverv night.and have not only slept remarkaly well, but have also filly re covered from a slight attack of indiges tion which had troubled me bef jre. I now find that peanuts, carefully pjasted and not overdone so as to be not at nil burned, aresiirely a remedy for sleepless ness, and also for that form of indiges tion which is one of the producing causes of sleeplessness. "There is a popular impression that peanuts are indigestible, but I have never found them so unless they were too much ruasted. or had bt?eu roast el many days before. When too much cooked or w hen stale they certainly are indigestible, but when carefully r.iastrd and frsh tiiey promote di-e-tion. T'uey should lye eaten shortly before piing to bed, and not more than a half pint should be taken. They sho'tld be r wst ed before they are shelled, and shelled only as they are eaten. A half pint of shelled nuts would be too many. " I commend this remedy with great confidence to those who are attljted with ireomnia, particularly if indigestion is, in part, thecau.se of it. The ;eanut is a very aliutde article of fwJ when care fully roasted and partaken of in moder ation. Ibopenone of my readers will imagine that I have started a pean.it farm and am wishing to create a boom in that article, but I shall be rejoiced if what I have written should be the means of bestowing on any others the great benefit which I have derived from this simple agency."

The moment the cow sytcm is deprived of its full demand for water, that moment an unnatural and fe verish condition begins, occasioning a loss both in the quantity a well as the quality of the milk.

VU'i Honor Thy Fatner and Mother. Young men who come from the coun try to Uie town, and who get oa in the world, are often ashamed of their par eat, of the rustic dre-a they once wore and of the simple bnt honest and kindly way of their childhood. And too often l.n they twice the fashionable clothe, and adopt the fash'onahle ways of their new friends they leave behind them ttie religion of their chil ihi and f,,rgt the piety which they 'earned at a motner knee. They have outgrown the priestly dress in which their mothers dedicated j them to iod, an ! think her religion old- fashioned and worn out. This is f.l-e shame. It ia a sin against the d-arest and most sacred instincts of our nature, S far fp.m being manly, it is meaa and dastardly. Ivpend up..n it, the man who w ill have m..sl fivor of heaven will be he who keep unchanged ail thrjugu life that mantle of heavenly devotion with wha b hi mother clothed him He who make the religion of his yooth the habit of his life his garment ami way of acting all throe. will come to honor and will enjoy the pr! blessing of constsiem-y.
