THE EXACT MAJORITY.
Jersey City, Nov. 7.—The New Jersey
State Republican committee received re-
ports to-day from all the counties of the
State. They show a plurality of 3,562
for Cleveland.
Archaeological Finds in Greece.
There is something so unpractical in-
the Greek laws on the subject of excava-'
tion and importation of antique objects#-
that it is to be hoped that the shrewd com-
mon sense of the people will ere long sc®'
their impolicy. Excavation without per-
mission from the Government, even on
one’s own land, is punishable, and the
government practically confiscate the
find when the tinders are feeble, and lev-
ies a tax of half their value when they are
not. Everything, therefore, is done in se-
cret, and exportation by contraband is the
only possible manner of profiting by one’s
good fortune. The peasant who- finds ati
antique site carefully conceals it; and the
object he finds, instead of enabling the ar-
chaeologist to classify the antiquities by"
reference to their provenance, are sold to'
some one who removes them from the-
country, so all clue is lost to their true
archaeological position.—W. J. Stillmans
in the August Century.

• Men often misuse not only women, says’
a cotemporary, but the word ‘‘woman.”'
The husband who speaks of his wife as’
his “woman” is a hog. The man who*
goes out with his wife and registers her as
his “lady” is abusive, though he may not
know it. The man who goes out with sev-
eral women should not say that he is with
a lot of women, but that he accompanies
ladies. This includes his wife and all
others in the company. It is proper to-
say good morning, good evening, or good!
night, “ladies,” but it would be boorish,
to say good night “women.” Treat your
wife as your wife, with love, respect and
manly attention. Treat all women as la-
dies, as refined, lovable women, as by so-
doing you prove yourself to be the pos-
sessor of gentlemanly qualities.
The first illustrated newspaper was Lon-
don’s Intelligencer, which came out in 1643,
with a variety of rude wood cuts. On the
13th of November, 1665, was issued the
first recognized court organ, the Oxford
Gazette. The first literary paper was call-
ed Mercurius Librarius; or, a “A Faithful
Account of all Books and Pamphlets,”
No. 1, April 9th to 16th, 1680. The first
sporting paper was published in 1683, and
called the Jockey's Intelligencer’, and the
first medical paper came out in 1686. The
first professedly comic paper, in all prob- '
ability, was the Merry Mercury, or a Farce
of Fools, No. 1, Nov. 29th, 1700. The first
daily paper was the Daily Gourant, pub-
lished March 11. 1702. In 1778 appeared
[he first Sunday newspaper, called John-
son’s Sunday Monitor, and the first daily-
evening paper was called the Star, pub-
lished in the year 1788. The first newspa-
per in America was the Boston Nexus Letter,
issued on Monday, April 24, 1704. It was
a half sheet, about 12 ;by 8 inches, in two
pages folio, with two columns on each
page. The title is in Roman letters of the
size printers call “French canon,” and un-
der it, in old English, are the words,
•‘printed by authority.” The imprint is

I have only a few words to say, which are to
state that I have been confined to my bed for
two months with what was called Nervous
Rheumatism, or Sciatica. I was only enabled
to hobble about occasionally by the use of
crutches, and in this condition I commenced
the use of B. B. B. four bottles of which
enabled me to discard the use of my crutches
and attend to business. I had previously used
all well recommended. medicines without re-
relief. It has been over two months since
using B. B. B., and I consider myself a perma-
nently cured man. J. P. DAVIS,
Atlanta, Ga., (West End.)
M. A. Abbey, of Russellville, Ark., dated
June sth, 1SS4; “At last I have found an
honest remedy. B. B. B. is the best Blood
Poison remedy on earth, and if I had a voice
that would reach from Atlanta to the sea, I
would proclaim its virtue. I have used only
four bottles, and am nearly cured of a serious
Blood Poison.”
J. M. Ellis, Atlanta, Ga., writes: “I have
had a severe form of Eczema, ten years,
and have failed to secure relief from
various doctors, and about 140 bottles of a
noted blood remedy. It was pronounced in-
curable, but the use of B. B. B. has effected a
cure, and I refer to C, P. Swift, Dr. D. O. C.
Heary, Dr. F. F. Taber, Atlanta.”
W. M. Cheshire, at W. H. Brotherton’s Store,
Atlanta, writes: “I have had a large eating
ulcer on my leg cured by the use of B. B. B.
It is decidely a most wonderful medicine for
the cure of blood diseases, and it will please
everybody.”
Mr. R. P Dodge, Yard Master of Ga., R. R.,
Atlanta, writes: “ For seven years my wife
has been a great sufferer from Catarrh, which
resisted the treatment of Physicians and the
use of all patent remedies, until she used B. B.
B. A fe w bottles of this truly wonderful blood
medicine effected a cure, and I cheerfully re
commend it as a quick and magical blood

are not commonly called stlcli, its those of
the elm and ash, but these will be passed
over, and only those treated of which are
I of special interest to the beekeeper.
To illustrate Hower structure, let us ex-
amine the apple blossom. The first thing1
noticed is that there are five white of
pinkish White flattened portions which
form the most conspicuous part of the
flowers and clothe the tree in beauty.
These are the petals. On thb inside
of the petals are a large number of
small yellow stems surmounted by a cap
of the same color; these are the stamens,
and are a very essential part of the flower,-
because they contain the yellow powder
called pollen. At the center of the group
of stamens is a greenish stem differing
from the stamens in size and shape, this
is the pistil; another essential part of the
flower. The lower portion of the pistil is
called the ovary, because it contains the
ovules, or young seeds. In order that
these ovules may develop into seeds, at
particle of the pollen from the stamens
must fall upon the top of life pistil and
penetrate it by means of a microscopic!
“pollen tube.” This is the process of fer-
tilization. But if this is done by pollen
from the same flower, the ovule will, irt
. most cases, not develop at all, or if it does
( develop, it will be much less vigorous
than if the pollen came from another flow-
er of the same tree ; or, still better, of an-
other tree. Here comes in the aid of the
honey bee ; its function, as regards flow-
ers, is to curry pollen from the stamens Of
. one flower to fertilize the pistil of anotlH
er. In the apple, pear, peach, thorn and
many similar flowers, the process of fer-
tilization is very simple. The bee alights
upon the blossom, and in so doing some
pollen is brushed upon its head and body,-
some of which will be rubbed on the pis-
til of the next flower visited in its eager'
’ search for the honey secreted at the base"
of the stamens.

We scarcely appreciate the honey bee’s
mission as it goes humming’ from flower
to flower, doing double duty, carrying
pollen from one flower to another to prop-
agate the species and gathering honey to
be carried home to feed its progenitor,
thus enabling it to propagate its species
there. As we grow older we are con
stantly seeing new beauties in nature, and
sometimes seems a pity that the young
men cannot take up the experience and
start in where the old men leave off, but
such is impossible. Since, then, this can-
not be done, the next best thing becomes
our duty. To record the experience of
the present generation as a guide to the
next, with the hope that each generation
may start in a few steps in advance of
vdiere the one next preceding it begun
life. Nowhere in nature is the wisdom of
the Divine Creator more manifest than in
flowers and insects and their relation to
each-other. Each seems to be necessaiy
to the existence of the other and all so ar-
ranged that nothing is lost. The hon-
ey itself that becomes the food of the
bee is but the sexual exudation of
flowers, and this the bee gets in return
for his labor in bringing together the fer-
tilizing property that propagates plant
life. Clarence M. Weed, in American Bee
Journal, has these interesting and instruct-
ive remarks on this extremely interesting
subject:
Every person at all acquainted with bees
and bee culture, knows that without flow-
ers bees could not exist; but it may be a
new thought to some, at least of the
younger readers, that without bees flow-
ers could not exist. It is proposed to
give an idea of The mutual relations of
bees and flowers, and of the views of em-
and lower part ! inent botanists in regard thereto. It will
Tl»e Presbyterian Synod of Sotttli Car-
olina Discusses tbe Darwinian
Theory.
The Presbyterian synod of South Caro-
lina, at Greenville, was in debate several
days in the discussion of the Darwinian
theory of evolution. The issue arose from
the fact that Dr. Woodrow, one of the
professors of Columbia Theological Semi-
nary, with the avowed purpose of fortify-
ing young ministers in scientific knowl-
edge, had set forth the theory of evolu-
tion in a lecture, expressing his own be-
liefin it in a modified form and declaring
it not inconsistent with Scripture teach-
ings.
The discussion of Dr. Woodrow’s posi-
tion was warm and spirited, most of the
leading divines of the synod participating.
A settlement of the question was at hist
reached by adopting the following resolu-
tion :
Resolved, that, in the judgment of this
synod, the teaching of evolution in the
• theological seminary at Columbia, except
in a purely expository manner and with
no intention of inculcating its truth, is
hereby disapproved.
The vote by which the resolution
carried was: Y'eas, 50 ; nays, 45.
SHE SWKOBE RELVCTAXTLY.
A few days ago two ladies called at the
custom house to see about getting some
impor ed articles out of the hamleofthe
government officers. They were directed
to the proper department, where a courte-
ous deputy collector informed her that it
would be necessary for the owner ot the
articles in question to make oath as to
their character. This, statement caused
the elder lady evident distress. She re-
marked uneasily that she did not wish to
swear.
“The law requires that you should
swear to the facts,” said the deputy col-
lector, as he proceeded to fill out the nec-
essary affidavit.
“But I cannot—I really don’t want to,”
expostulated the lady.
“It is absolutely necessary that you
should,” and he immediately read very
rapidly the usual form, “and you do sol-
emnly, sincerely and truly swear,” etc.
The lady cast au appealing glance at
the imperturbable officer, then looked re-
signedly at her smiling companion and
said, “Well, I suppose if 1 must I must,
But the Lord have mercy on my soul-
damn it.”
The astonished deputy collector ex-
plained to the lady the nature of the
oath required.—New Y'ork Times.

The locomotive of to-day is a giant by
the side of the production of 1851. The
New York Central express engine is a
very Anak. Its weight is 84,000 pounds,
or nearly two and -a half times heavier
than its above mentioned prototype. The
cylinders are eighteen inches by twenty-
four. The average man’s head is far be-
low the top of the driving wheels, which
are seventy-five inches in diameter. In
1854 a New Y'ork passsenger express lo-
comotive traveled 25,000 miles in a year ;
last year the average mileage per engine
stood between 70,000 and 80,000 miles. A
locomotive for express passenger service
c^st, taking the experience ofthe last few
years, from $3,000 to $10,000 to build. In
comparing iiie locomotives of to-day and
a quarter of a (century ago you will notice
that while the weight of the whole ma-
chine has been increased greatly, certain
of the dimensions have not much altered.
This is because we are limited in various
ways in constructing a locomotive. We
cannot make the body of a certain width
because i f h ■ gauge of the t.ark; not over
a certain height, because we must keep
.the center of gravity at about the same
position, not over a certain length, because
of the wheel centers. So the locomotive
must always remain nearly the same in
form. It is to increased capacity of boil-
ers that we must look for increase of pow-
er. At present,, an express locomotive
boiler is of eighty horse power, that is, if
it was in a stationary engine that would be
its capacity. But when the locomotive is
drawing a train of cars at live miles an
hour, the boiler supplies the strength of
375 horses, and at forty-five miles an hour,
the power expended is equal to that of
from 700 to 800 horses. That's a curious
fact, isn't it?—Cor. Cot and Caboose.

Ed. Greenville Herald :
Dear Sib:—Col. John Henry Brown,
who is generally accurate in his historical
Statements, is eminently so in regard to
the death of Quantrell, with, perhaps^ one
insignificant exception.
In 1865, just after the surrender, and
while I was still at Shreveport, Louisiantq
1 received a letter from a gentleman, now
residing in Texas, saying: “You would
perhaps like to know what became of
Quantrell. He died yesterday in the hos-
pital of this city (Louisville, Ky.) under
the assumed name of-----. We buried
him to-day, and I have just returned from
tbe funeral. 1 attended him in his last
hours and saw him decently buried.
The writer of the above is an old ac=
quaintance of mine. I knew his father
and mother in times before the war, and
have known him from the time he was 8
years old. He has visited me since I have
been in Texas; indeed, within the last
three years, and I verified all the state-
ments of that let ter by personal inquiries.
Quantrell was wounded in an affair in
Kentucky, and so serious were his wounds
that he, with mv,informant, was taken to
the hospital in Louisville. I have seen
many statements in regard to the great
guerilla chief, but none so accurate as
Col. Brown’s. L. M. Lewis.

Living' in Rarefied Air.
The question often occurs at what
height men can live. A recent tr iveler ’n
Asia, Mr. Webber, states that he has lived
for months at the height of more than 16,
000 feet above the ocean with the follow-
ing results; His pulse, normally only 63
beats per minute, seldom fell below 100
beats per minute during the time he lived
at that altitude. His respirations were
often twice as numerous as under ordin-
ary circumstances. A rim of 100 yards
would quicken both pulse and respiration
more than a run of 1.000 yards at the sea
level, and the higher the altitude at which
he resided, the greater he found tbe diffi-
culty of walking or running fast.
