BERiVATION OF WOMENS’ NAMES.
Annabella is not Anna-bella, or fair An-
na, but is the feminine of Hannibal, mean-
ing gift (or grace) of Bel. Arabella is not
Ara-bella, or beautiful altar, but Orabilia,
a praying woman. In its Anglicized form
of Orabel, it was much more common in
the thirteenth century than at present.
Maurice has nothing to do with Mauritius,
or a Moor, but comes from Almaric—Awn-
melreich—the kingdom of heaven. Ellen
is the feminine of Alain, Alan or Allan,
and has no possible connection with Hel-
en, which comes from a different lan-
guage and is older by a thousand years at
least. Amy is not from <wnee, but from
amie. Avice, or Avis, does not exactly
mean advice, as some seem to think. It
comes from JEdwis, and means happy
wisdom. Eliza has no connection with.
Elizabeth. It is the sister of Louisa, and
both arc the daughters ofHeloise, which
is Hele-wis, hidden wisdom. There is, in-
deed, another form of Louisa, or rather

but this was scarcely heard of befoie the

form of the name, Alosa, Alosia, or Aloy-

RICHARB BAXTER’S GRAVE.
The other day a Presbyterian minister
from America with his wile visited my
church. They had spent a year traveling
over England, and had made their way
to Christ Church, Newgate street, to visit
the grave of Richard Baxter, and to see
the monument erected to his memory.
With deep regret they heard from me
that, although he was buried in the chan-
cel of my church, no stone marks his last
resting place, and the exact place is un-
known. Would it not be well for this
omission to be remedied? Who can doubt
that “after life’s titful fever he sleeps
well,” and that lie he has entered into that
everlasting rest which while on earth he
so wistfully contemplated and so sweetly
discoursed upon? But his name belongs
to the religious history of our country,
and it is not well that the last resting
place of so good a man should be so en-
tirely forgotten. The cause for which he
so prodigally spent himself is not mine,
but 1 honor his memory. What Christian
heart can be dead to the lesson of self-sac-
rifice and of life-long devotion to princi-
ple which his career so eminently exem-
plified? A mutual tablet with an appro-
priate inscription would be all that is nec-
essary to mark his grave. A hundred
pounds would be amply sufficient lor such
a work. 1 should myself be happy to
serve upon any committee formed for the
purpose of carrying it into effect.—Cor.
London Times.
Salt as a Necessity.
One of the most striking facts mention-
ed in a recent work on condiments is that
certain experiments of the French aca-
demicians showed that flesh deprived of
its saline constituents by being washed
with water lost its nutritive power, and
that animals fed on it soon died of starva-
tion. What is more curious still is that
a few days with such a diet, the instincts
of the animals told them that it was
worthless as food and fed on it with re-
luctance, and at length the utmost tor-
ments of hunger were hardly sufficient
to induce them to continue the diet.
There was plenty of nutriment in the
food, but there was no medium for its
solution and absorption, and hence it
was useless.

“Haggion Oros,” the holy mountain of
all who profess the Greek faith occupies
a most commanding position on the west-
ern shore of the ^Egean sea. Rising ab-
ruptly from the water to a height of 6,200
feet, at the extremity of a long, narrow
peninsular, it seems to be keeping watch
and ward over the sea path to and from
Salonica and the approach to the Darda-
nelles, much as Gibralta does over the
straits leading to the Mediterranean. The
peninsular is about forty miles long, and
has an average breadth of six miles. It is
connected with the great Clialcedonian
Peninsular by a narrow neck of sand,
through which the Persian monarch
Xerxes cut a canal for vessels of light
draught, vestiges of which yet remain.
“Haggion Oros” is Mount Athos. Even
before the days of Christianity Mount
Athos had its recluses, for the solemn
grandeur of the great bare peak and the
weird aspect of its surrounding are well
calculated to harmonize with minds given
up to wild and mystic thoughts. The new
doctrines gave a great impulse to this de-
sire to withdraw from the world, and in
the course of time the whole peninsular
came to be occupied by Greek monks,
who, under the Byzantine Emperors, en-
joyed the privilege of governing them-
selves and their poscssions without the
interference of any secular control what-
ever. There was thus formed an ecclesi-
astical autonomy that has endured to the
present day. The only indication ofTurk-
ish authority in Mount Athos is the pres-
ence of a “caimakam,” who, however, en-
joys not the slightest power,his functions
being limited to that of a mere observer.
This official has two “zaptieths” (gend-
armes) under his orders, but they are
more to do honor to his position than to
represent any force at his command, the
community having its own police in the
shape of a body of stout Albanian guards.
The administration is carried on by a
Council of Representatives, presided oyer
by one of their number, who is termed
“Proteros,” or, “the first man of Athos.”
This office is held by each of the members
of the Council in succession for a period
of three months. The months follow the
rule of Basilio us. No woman is allowed
on any pretense whatever to set foot in
. the district. The prohibition extends’ev-
en to female creatures of every kind, so
that not a hen, cow, she goat, or any other
animal capable of giving birth to its kind
is to be found at Mount Athos. There is
: but one village, where a fluctuating body
of seculars reside, who assist the monks
in their agricultural and other labors. It
is the only place in the world resembling
a town in which no marriage or birth ev-
er takes place.

SOMETHING ABOUT HUMANITY.
Reflections on the Good and Bad Sides
of Owr Natures—Flaws Jis Our Roas-
ted Civilization—“Utst Still We
May Be Happy Yet.”
Human society, human civilization and
even what we read of as human nature,
are in reality, the most artificial products
in the world—the creatures of fear and
discipline, of awe and constraint, of tradi-
tion and coercion. The machinery for
the repression of what is inborn in men
and women is, in the long run, effective ;
but periodically the ferocious impulses as-
sert themselves, and the bonds forged by
habit or by statute are snapped asunder.
Human society, fairly and decently regu-
lated as it seems to be, exhibits a recur-
rent tendency to resolve itself into its
primitive atoms, just as human nature
when confronted by some paralyzing per-
il or overpowering temptation, reveals its
identity with the nature of beasts. There
is as much to admonish us of what human
nature is—of that instinctive capacity for
infinite debasement and degradation which
is its characteristic—in the reports of po-
lice court cases and in many of the letters
which appear in tiie daily journals, as in
the latest story of cannibalism upon the
high seas. A magistrate or lawyer or
doctor sees in the course of every year a
good deal calculated to give him even a
lower opinion of the stuff of ■which his
fellow creatures are made. Under such
headings as Street Anarchy and Highway
Violence, we read of incidents occurring
in the very heart of the resources of civili-
zation which proclaims the isolated ascen-
dency of barbarism, and which show us
that if a few of the checks and restraints
that now insure a csrtain discipline and
orderliness for life were dispensed with
society would .be at the mercy of the cut-
throats and robbers out of whom it grew.
As there is nothing so cruel and calcu-
lating as man, so there is nothing so “un-
natural” as human nature, and this truth,
the phenomena of every day existence im-
press upon us just as powerful as the sto-
ry of delirious wretches who strove to ap-
pease their hunger by gnawing the flesh
of their shipmates. The scandals which
from time to time agitate the surface of so-
ciety, (he elopements in high life and
many other of the revelations made in
court, are unconscious protests on the
part of the protagonists in the little drama
Cheifficaf analysis ’shows that against the artificial constraints subject
MATTER MF •' SPIES.
Ifow Frederick Jlie Great, of Prussia,
Regarded Their Different IJegrccH.
Frederick the Great, of Prussia, was a
cotemporary of Vattel,£says the; Gentle-
man's Magazine, and ii\gNovember, 1760,
lie published some military instructions
for the use of his’gencrals, which, in the
matter of spies, was based on a wider prac-
tical knowledge of’the matter than of
course belonged’; to the more specific
publicists. He classified spies into ordi-
nary spies, double spies, spies of distinc-
tion and spies of compulsion. By double
Spies he meant spies who also pretended
to be in the service of the side betrayed.
By spies of distinction he meant officers
of hussars, whose services he had found
useful under the peculiar circumstances of
he Austrian campaigns. When he could
not procure himself spies among the Aus-
trians, owing to the careful guard which
their light troops kept around their
camp, the idea occurred to him, and he
acted on it with success, of utilizing the
suspension of arms that was customary af-
ter a skirmish between hussars, to make
those officers the meai.s of conducting an
epistolary correspondence with the offi-
cers on the other side. Spies by compul-
sion be explained as follows: “When you
wish to convey false information to an en-
emy, you take a trustworthy and compel
him to pass to the enemy's camp to re-
port there all that you wish the enemy to
believe; you also send by him letters to
excite the troops to desertion.” And in
the event of its being impossible to obtain
information about the enemy, this distin-
guished child of Mars prescribes the fol-
lowing military receipt: Choose some
rich citizen who has land and wife and
children, and another man disguised as
his servant or coachman, whe understands
the enemy’s language. Force the former
to take the latter with him to the enemy’s
camp to complain of injuries sustained,
threatening him that if he fails to bring
the man back with him after having
stayed long enough for the desired ob-
ject, his wife and children shall be hanged
and his house burned. “I was myself con-
strained,” adds this great warrior, “to
have recourse to this method, when
we were encamped at---. and it suc-
ceeded.” Such were the military ethics
of the great philosopher and king, whose
character in the closer intimacy of biogra-
phy proved so disagreeable a revelation to
Carlyle. Pagan antiquity might be
searched in vain for practice or sentiments
so ignoble. Sartoras, the Roman captain,
was one of the greatest masters of strate-
gem in the world, yet how different his
language from that of the great Freder-
ick. “A man,” he said, “who lias any dig-
nity of feeling should conquer with honor,
and not use any base means, even to save
his life.”
I. H. LOIKLABY,
to which they live—reminders that men
and women will occasionally break loose
and show themselves in their true colors.
We are always living on the brink of a vol-
cano, because we are living under a system
of the most highly elaborate sort. Socie-
ty, civilization, nature, are organized to a
rare point of perfection ; but the risk of
their reduction to their original parts
must be always imminent. Five centuries
of labor and invention, of the triumph of
science, industry and art, separate us from
the dark ages; but what human nature
was in those ages it is now, and if the
precautions prescribed by. custom or dic-
tated by law are ever relaxed, the fact is
immediately brought home to us. Human
nature is shown to be not good, but evil:
not human, but brutal.—London World.
BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS.
The aged Victor Hugo, the reverend po-
et of France, now past four-score, knows
'nothing of the joyless gloom of Ingersoll
and Bradlaugh as they look beyond death.
His own words but give expression to his
sense of immortality :
“I feel in myself the future life. I am
like a forest that has been more than
once cut down. The new shoots are
livelier and stronger than ever. I am ri-
sing, I know, toward the sky. The sun-
shine is on my head. The earth gives me
its generous sap, but heaven lights me
with the reflection of unknown worlds.
You say the soul is nothing but the re-
sultant of bodily powers. Why, then, is
my soul more luminous when my bodily
powers begin to fail? Winter is on my
head and eternal spring in my heart.
Then I breathe, at this hour, the fragrance
of the lilacs, the violets and the roses as
at twenty years. The nearer I approach
the end, the plainer I hear around me the
immortal symphonies of the worlds which
invite me. It is a fairy tale, and it is his-
tory. It is marvelous, yet simple. For
half a century I have been writing my
prose, verse, history, philosophy, drama,
romance, tradition, satire, ode, song—I
have tried all. But I feel that I have not
said the thousandth part of what is in me.
When I go down to the grave I can say
Lmiise,* which*is the”femYnine of Louis’, like so many others,‘I have finished my
day’s work,’ but I can not say lI have fin-
ished my life.’ My day’s work will be-
gin again the next morning. The tomb
is not a dark alley : it is a thorougfare.
It closes in the twilight to open in the
dawn. I improve every hour because I
love this world as my fatherland. My
monument is hardly above its foundation.
1 would be glad to sec it mounting and
mounting forever. The thirst for the in-
finities proves infinity.”

TEXAS METEORITES.
Of course many persons recollect the J
huge meteorite that used to be on a table
in the geological room of the old capitol.
When the building was destroyed by fire
this meteorite fell in the debris, and being
protected from great beat by some of the '
underwalls that fell upon it, it was re- :
covered from the ruins in condition not '
in.the least affected by heat. This meteor- 1
ite has a history outside its presence in 1
the geological room and its recovery from 1
the ruins of the burnt capitol. It was !
found on the upper waters of Red River,
in Wichita county. It had been set up as 1
an object of worship by the Indians, who
regarded it with holy superstition as be-
longing not to the earth, but as coming
from the land of the Great Spirit. In 1S5S
Major Neighbors, commanding at Foit
Belknap, had it conveyed on a wagon to
the fort; thence it was taken to San Anto-
nio, and finally found its way to the
State museum in the old capitol. It is
now deposited in the State university,
where it will remain for ages to come as
one of the greatest curiosities of its future
great museum. Professor Mallett, late
professor of chemistry in the State Uni-
versity, took a small part of this wonder-
ful heavenly visitor for analysis. He de-
scribes the specimen as follows:
The mass has an irregular elongated
pear-like shape, somewhat flattened, a
good deal larger at one end than the oth-
er, with tolerably smooth general surface,
but with well marked concavities or shal-
low pittings—in every way presenting the
appearance of a typical metallic meteor.
There is no well dfiened crust, but mere-
ly a thin, closely adhering film of oxide
on the surface. There is no appearance of
any effect from the capitol fire through
which it passed ; very probably the weight
of the mass may have carried it rapidly
on the giving away of the floor down to
some position in the basement in which
it was sheltered from the heat by masonry
rubbish accumulated over it. lhe dimen-
sions of the specimen in its original state
were: maximum breadth, 305 millime-
ters; maximum length, 595 millimeters ;
maximum thickness, 223 millimeters. The
weight was a little under 160 kilograms,
as determined on a rather rough platform
balance.
He reports the interior structure as rath-
er compact, but tolerably soft, tough anti
malleable. C------------
the meteorite is composed of: iron, 90./69;
nickel, 8.342; cobalt, .255; manganese, a
trace; copper, .018; tin, 004; phosphorus. |
.141; sulphur, .016, graphite carbon, .190;
silica and magnetic oxide iron, .132; in all
99.877 parts. Prof. Mallet fixes this spec-
imen as belonging to the shower of 1814.
The immense specimen at Yale college,
weighing 1,635 pounds, is one of the same
fall. It was found in the northern part ot
Cherokee county, and he thinks this one,
now in the university building, must have
been taken as a sacred treasure from East
Texas to the northwest. The finest spec-
imens of meteorites known appear to
come from Texas. They are to be found
in universities and colleges in this countiy
and in Europe. _______
A Scrap of History.
When the Mexicans came to take the
six pound cannon at Gonzales, there
were but eighteen men to defend it.
They held a consultation to decide wheth-
er they should give it up or fight to re-
tain it. Of the eighteen, three voted to
give it up, believing that the handful of
defenders could not resist the host of in-
vaders, and that to attempt to fight
would be simply inviting annihilation.
Of the eighteen, we give lhe names as
furnished us by captain Parker from the
Charles Mason papers: Captain Andrew
Ponton, alcalde; Charles Mason, Wm. A.
Mathews, William Arrington, C. C. De
Witt, Winslow Tourncr, J. P. Patrick,
■Major V Bennett, Jacob Darst, M. Cald-
well, David Harrison, T. S. Lee, James
Carr, Judge McClure, Tom Miller, Ste-
phen Turner, Stephen F. Smith.
If the list is incorrect, or if any one
can add thereto, we will be pleased to
have the information.
Captain Poijton was the father of dis-
trict attorney T. J. Ponton; judge De
Witt is now living.near town, and major
T. S. Lee is also a. resident of the county,
though very weak and aged. Major V.
Bennett was grandfather to the writer
hereof. A monument was erected to his
memory a short time since in the public
graveyard at this place. Judge Charles
Mason died a short time since. Mr. Darst
was, we think, father of our fellow-towns-
man, D. S. II. Darst.—Gonzales Inquirer.
