NEW YORK'S FOOD SUPPLY.
Enonch Always on Hand to Wlthitand a
Four Months' Kleja,
If tlio city of New York and thn
neighboring flitttrict were to be besieged
or in aomo other way eutirely cut olf
from the outxido world, and therefore
deprived of tho food -supplies which in
normal time come .in daily in largo
quantities, how long would it be before
the pinch of hunger would bo felt?
That 1b a very hard question to answer,
for tho rcunou Uiut there aro such in
equalities of mrchoHiug capacity iu
New York society that aomo go hungry
in timoa of grcatost prosperity for luck
of menu, while .tlio grout majority out
mora than is good for them. Undoubt
edly the number of thoso who alwayi go
hungry would bo .increased of tor two or
three duya of a aicgo, and then day by
day this number would increase until
tlio publio authoritlca would fool com
pelled to take ptaweHglonof the foodanp
plioa and distribute them among the
people. With theezception of milk and
some other tiling, the supply of incut,
poultry, luirdjr vegetables and fruit
would last for twoiuoutha at the present
rate of coruauupUcm. IX all the aupplit
were taken charge of at the beginning
of a liege and thia oould easily be
done the food within New York could
be made to lust .for four month at least.
The aiege of Paris lasted only four
months. Before .two month hod passed
high and low, rich and poor, had learn
ed what hunger .waa. And, aa i well
known, the i'renoh are the moat thrifty
and eoonomioai people in the world. Ia
the arrangement. and disposition of food
the Parisian are .specially distinguish
ed. But the food supply in New York
oould be made to Jast aa long aa the
Pari aiege lasted,. and the people would

Tho Word Dollar."
According to one .authority, the word
"dollar" ia aoorruption of the German
tword "thaler," the iorm in Dutch be
ing ' 'daalder. " AU these different forma
were derived from .Joachim's Thai, a
Bohemian town, wheat the count of
Soblick, A D. 14i8, looined aome ex
'OeUeut piece in ailveraf one ounoe in
weight "From the name of the town
came Joachim' thaiot, applied to the
Above named ooina .aa well aa that of
Sohlio ken thaler. Henoe, Joachim 'a
thaler pieoea were first contracted into
Joachim' thaler and then into thaler.
Theae oln gained auch a reputation
that they became a patten, ao that
othura of the some kind, though made
in other places, took the tuune, the word
assuming different spelling through the
low countries, reaching Spain aa dol
lara, and t rough it provinoea trans
mitted to thai western hemisphere, where
it was applied to coins prior to the
adoption of the federal correnoy. In
ooinage the word 'dollar' is a favorite,
being found, under various spellings, to
almost every part of the globe, "

"A bull," Sydney Smith tell n, "I
tho exact counterpart of a witticism,
for, a wit discover real relation that
are not apparent, bull admit apparent
relation that are not real. " I dn not
think bull necessarily do that. When
Sir lioyle Kochn told the Irish house of
commons that ho wished a cerlnili bill,
then before that august assembly, sttlio
bottom of the bottomlea pit, ho cer
tainly produced a bull, and a very lino
one, bnt a certainly hi aspiration doe
not admit apparent relation that are
not real. It appears to me that a bull
may perhaps lie defined in so difficult
and subtle a matter I don't like to dog
matise as a real meaning. I observe ill
passing and I hopo I may not in so do
ing seem to be lacking iu justice to
Ireland that the claim sometimes modn
on behalf of that country to a sort of
monopoly of bulls I untenable,
Eioelleut bull are produced by peo
ple of other countries. As, for example,
by the Austrian officer mentioned by
Schopenhauer when he observed to a
guest staying in the same oountry house :
"Ah, you are fond of solitary walks
So am L Let u take a walk together. "
Or by the Scotchman who told a friend
that m common acquaintance had de
clared him unworthy to black the boots
of certain person, and who, in reply
to hi remark, "Well, I hope you took
my part," said, "Of oourse I did; I
said you were quite worthy to black
them." Or, again, by a well known
English judge, who, when passing sen
tence on a prisoner convicted on all the
oounts of a long indictment, observed,
"Do yon know, sir, that it i in my
power to eutcuce you for these many
breaches of the laws of your oountry to
a term of penal servitude far exceeding
your natural lifof" Fortnightly Ho

Dr. Robert Fletcher in his "Anatomy
of Art" and Dr. Luigi Sambon having
shown conclusively that Greeks and
Komau must have had a good acquaint
ance with surgery, it acorn strange, that
in tho modimval European period thero
wa dense; ignorance and no skill in am
putation. Sword and lance wound were
nooessitrily of constant oocurrenco then,
and tho treatment wo merciless. It ha
been shown bofore how thero was among
primitive people a fair acquaintance
with surgery anil oven a knowledge of
tho ruunoiunuts of it, as in plastic, opera
tions. The discovery of a manuscript of
tho eleventh century shows us con
clusively that among tho Arabs and in
Syria nt thn timo of tho first crusitdes

We first hear of Loudon In any Im
portant sense a a city of Human Brit
ain. Tho incoming of tho Saxon con
queror is followed by nearly 800 years
of unbroken silence, and it I this long
period which hah canned some historians
to ansttnic, rother than prove, that Ko
mnn London hnd altogether censed to
exist But when tho light of history is
gain shetl uiion this part of the newly

that Loudon had, to a large oxtent, pre
served her independence as a plucn of
commerce and civio nrgiininntlou. Tim
Saxon settlement apjienr all round her,
and perhaps thn llttlo village of Char
ing, within a mile of her walls, afford
tho most significant testimony to the
Saxon settlement round London rather
than in Loudon.
The Saxon conquerors appear as polit
ical master of London and introduced
into her municipal lifo the folkmoot,
which originally met In the open air on
a piece of land near Paul's Cross and
which is perhaps represented by the
Common hall of tho oitixens of London
of the present day; many Teutonio cus
tom which lie imbedded in tho munic
ipal usage of tuediwval times, many
Democratic innovations In municipal
institution which apiicur throughout
tho early year of Plautugeuot rule,
when tho "common people" oyer and
over ""ttin asserted their right to tako
part 11 the municipal elections and
transactions of tho day. But both the
settlements round Loudon und the po
litical lordship ovor London do not ap
pear to have made Loudon a Saxon city
and its municipal institutions of Saxon
origin. Tho les morcatoria of Komau

perhaps tho most remarkable survivul of
Human institutions in Britain is tho
practice of tho old order of sergeants at
law, who assembled iu thn nave of the
old St. Paul's cathedral, each sergeant
having been allotted a special pillar in
tho cathedral at his appointment, where
he met his clients in legal consultation,
hearing tho facts of tho case, taking
notes of tho evidence or pacing up and
down. This is the exact parallel to thn
assembling of tho Human jtirisperiti at
curly morn in tlio forum to consult with
their clients and cannot be explained
except by tho theory of direct coutinu
auoo of practice from Horn an times.

A Full a a Tick.
This expression i common enough In
tho North Hilling of Yorkshire and al
ways lias reference to thn parasite in
festing dogs nnd sheen. Mr. J. Nichol
son' "Folk Speech of Fast Yorkshire,"
1HH, has thn expression, with the ex
planation, "A tick Is a sheep louse,
which has always a full, blunted ap
pearance. "
The west Yorkshire equivalent for
this expression is "as full as a fitch"
fitch (vetch) and the allusion is, I sup
pose, to the yield being too large for thn
pod or husk. The idea is pleasuuter than
either "tlpk" or "lrmso," and it has thn
advantage of alliteration. Notes and
