No where is the babe co honored as in the church; although in the oivilized oitiea of ( America, like B :ston, New York and Min-1 neapolis, mothers forget the love they should bear their children. One of the signs of the truth of God's ' church is that the poor have the gospel! preaohed to them. The laborer is honored and protected by the church, while in heathen natipns he is despised atid dishonored. In heathen In- dia it is believed that from Brahma's mouth came tbe priests; from bis shoul- ders the kings and governors; from his body the artizins and agriculturists and I from his feet tho laborers. They are tho | lowest ia ciste. Men in onr day are at- ; tempting to revive heathenism, but, my j brethren, you now see how heathenism compares with Christianity. In conclu- sion he asked his ilock to reverence the holy name of Jeans, and lamented the fre- quency with which that device name is blasphemized, even by the Catholic youth of thi3 city.

Last evening closed the most successful week of the art loan exhibition. There has been a number of excellent additions to the display, and the attendance has in- creased almost daily.

To every true Minneapolitan, and we may say i every Minnesotian, for Minne- apolis is : 'idly rising to bo the art capi- tal of Mm. • •\u25a0ota, the room containing the works of the local artists will be the cen- tre of interest in the exhibition. Hitherto the people of Minneapolis haye never had such a chance oi knowing what a number of good ;'.rti«ts they had in their midst, and it is full time that we should appreci- ate them as they deserve. There is no longer need that we have recourse, for the decoration of our houses, to showy chromoa or vulgar paintings \u25a0manufactured by ignorant daubers, which have a certain tendency to destroy oar tastes, or when we v?lch for pood pictures, to allow ourselver. to be vic*i_iized by the fabrieants of "old masters.

We have seen iv tho Athenaeum library in the "Illustrated London News," of 1879, April 2S, page 391, a notice of Mr.Vincent de Germaiii's successful competition against British artists for the "Taj lot" art schol- arship. He has devoted seven or eight years to the study of art under tho best masters in Paris and Atwerp. His works have been accepted in the Paris salon and conspicuously placed. The little water color, "At Charenton, on the Mame" (1664), was on the line in tho salon of 1833, when of 11,000 pictures cent from all parts of the world only 2,500 to 3,000 were accepted. We hope that with such a record of European success, Mr. Vincent de Germain will re ceive every inducement to remain among us, by the speedy sale of his works. Mr. Weinard, an artist who has aban- doned the more artistic medium, oil paint- ing, for a more money making fresoo, contributed some very good works. His "Italian boy" (.1,627) is an academy study done by him in the Brussell's academy of arts, which won for 'aim at the time, first prize for painting. It is most artistic in its style and coloring. ''Hot Soup" (ljC32) is a very good copy from the pic- ture in the Bruspell gallery, by Jaqueß Jordaens, pupil of Rubens. One of our contemporaries said that it was an original study done in Manich. This assertion mubt have amused the artist. The Bame artist painted the copy of "Rubens Holy Family" from the Antwerp gallery, which is on the stairs outside the "Hill" room. It is a very close imitation of the original. Mr. Herbert Conner exhibits a portrait of a sweet little girl, daughter of Dr. Hutch- ins, of Minneapolis. It is omitted from the catalogue by some means. Those" who are acquainted with the child, tentify to its being a striking likeness, end with the exception of the hand beingexaggerat- td it is artistically treated.

THE HANDTHAT ROCKS THE •WORLIX [William Ross Wallace.] Blessings on the hand of woman ! Angels guard bar strength and grace . In the cottage, palace, hovel, O, no matter where the place! Would that never storms assailed, it; Rainbows ever gently curled; For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world. Infancy's the tender fountain; Power may with beauty (low, Mothers first to guide the streamlet, From them souls unrest grow.— Grow on for the good or evil, Sunshine streamed or darkness hurled; For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world. "Women how divine your mission • Here upon our natal sod; Keep, oh keep the young heart open Always to the breath of God! Alltrue trophies of the Ages Are from Mother Love impearled; For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world. Blessings on the hand of woman! Fathers, sons and daughters cry, And the sacred song is mingled With the worship of the sky— Mingles where no tempest darkens, Rainbows evermore are curled; For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world. OUR RAILROAD FUTURE, The Outlines of the Railroad Conquest of Our Continent. • A Bffetwork of Roads Which Will In. elude Canada and Mexico—- Annexation and a Pro- tectorate. [Chicago Tribune.] Ths rapidity with which tha railroad en- terprises in Canada and Mexico are being pushed to completion suggests some exceed- ingly interesting forecasts with regard to tha effects that may be expected to follow in trade and trade legislation, in politics and in political geography, as well as in the per- sonal habits and prosperity of the people of the North American continent. The Canadian Pacific, it is now announced, vrill be done in two years. It is already graded for 1,000 miles, clear up to the Rocky mountains. Its projectors ridicule the rumors of finan- cial embarrassment which have lately got afloat. They have, according to their state-, ments, enough money on hand of their own and the government's aot only to finish thaj road, but to equip it. ho work on the Mex- ican Central, the Boston enterprise, is pro- ceeding so much more rapidly than at first planned that it will be finished next spring instead of late in the summer. Besides this road, which runs down from El Paso, there is another in active construction from Laredo southward which v.-ill be done next summer. These roads ran from the north down to the City of Mexico. There is another transconti- nental road on a small scale which is being pushed through from Tampico de Tamauli- pas, on the gulf of Mexico, to San Bias, on the Pacific. .THE FUTURE FORESHADOWED. The grand outlines of the railroad conquest of the American continent will bj filled in with the driving of the last spikes of theso enterprises. Much in the way of details will remain to be inlaid in our mosaic of railroads, but the main design will be completed. Tho control of the enormous system will bo the control of the industry of the American continent. Where this control is likely to rest is probably foreshadowed in the fact that the direction and construction of these enterprises ia now almost en- tirely in the hands of Americans. The lines into Mexico are being pushed by Amer- ican financiering and American brains^ and tbd great tine across Canada, though sab- aidized by Canadian gifts of land and track, is in the hands of a syndicate in which Amer- ican influence is predominant. Canada found ite highest inspiration for the generosity with which it treated the Canadian Pacific fa the idea that thereby it would obtain an inde- pendent line across ' from ocean to ocean on Cftondian soil, bat it is already plain that the Canadian Pacific will be bat a spur of tha mighty mileage of the United States. THE TAKKBE IEBESIBTIBI.E. The confederating tendencies at work in the American network ofrailroads cannot bo resisted by the Mexican and Canadian roads. The same irresistible attractions of traffic that make tho Grand Trunk of Canada more en- ergetic in extending its American than any. other connections will ] "II the Canadian Pacific towards American business. Mexican railroad development must inevitably fall into tributary relations to the two or three corporations and pools that have tho south- west now entirely in their possession. The few foreign stockholders these various enter- prises have will drop out one after another whenever there is a flurry in the stock market, for they will not have the abiding faith of those on the ground. One of the least remote consequences of the completion of the lines into Mexico may be tho descent of the English road between Vera Cruz and the City of Mexico into American hands. That corporation has had a monopoly which it has improved by the most extortionate charges of 10 or 12 cents a mile for passengers and as much for the freight of a hundred pounds as our roads charge for a ton. The American lines will break up this extortion and cut down the profits of the old road to a point that will very likelymake its present owners glad to sell out at a sacrifice to their competitor. AS THE RAILROADS MAY SAY. On 3of the first things the railroad intjresi will want, north as well as south, will be the modification of the restrictions put on trade between the United States and its neighbors. Railroads are for transportation, and that means trade. The taxes, and inspections, and regulations about bonding and all that goes with frontier meddling with trade will all cut into the receipts of the railroads, and those corporations willbe certain to use their influence to have the way made smoother for their benefit. The ratification of the Mexican reciprocity treaty, which comes up in "Wash- ington next winter, willbe very likely to go as the railroads say. The half-dozen pools that will control the railroad business of the whole continent from Hudson's bay to the gulf of Tehuantepec will have a scanty re-1 spect for the imaginary lines that divide their I political dependencies. They will effect a I commercial annexation which willbe more I than likely to result in political annexation I in the north and perhaps a protectorate in the I south. THE HEBOIc'Tr.EATMEST. Awar with Mexico is by no means one of tha impossible consequences of the railroad invasion of the Cactus Republic. The gov- ernment has incurred very heavy obligations to half a dozen American corporations for subsidies. The Mexican has never bean re- nowned for his fidelity to financial engage- ments. If the Mexican government, in one. of its fits of repudiation, should attempt to throw over its American beneficiaries, the powerful men who are interested in those subsidized enterprises—men like Gen. Grant and Jay Gould—might find it easy enough to smbroil the two countries in a struggle the disguised object of which would be reached when Mexico was put under a protectorate and all its obligations towards American en- terprises assumed by the United States, se- cured by Mexican revenues and Mexican property. INTO A NEVT CAREEB. . The entrance of American methods of transportation, bringing American capital, energy and enthusiasm into the ancient stupor of Mexican wealth, will be certain to send that country forward with an immense boned in a new career. The mere rise of the low level of the Mexican prices to the higher American averages will be a cruickener THE HILL I! CL LECTION. We will do* just inke a cursory glance at the pictures in the collection loaned by J.J. Sill, of St. Paul, which, for so very s;nail a collection, is perhaps one of the richest we have s-een compresstd, so to speak, in a nut shell. The Evening Journal says that the pic- tures are all masterpieces of the French school. The critic of the E. J. is not quite rightly informed. The two best works in it are by Spanish artists, though residents of Paris? The critic of the Journal cannot have seen the picture, "Blindman's Buff," or ho would not have said that it was by C. H. Ban- quiet. The name of Cossanova, the great Spanish French artist, is sufficiently well known, and is legiole enough tinder the picture. The great artist has in this pic- ture erred very much against the propor- tions of the human figures of the Spanish ladies, but the drawing of ILo hands is really beautiful and the painting of the furniture nod int. rior is remark- able for that park'e and brilliancy for which the Spanish reliant not Is. He paints the same models in all hi« piotnres —the same moik «lv the ram* women. Ie might almost be called a plsyiariit, &lthoDgh of ft very ogrreab'a kind.

This is an excellent specimen of Jirfl- nez' ait, and figured, we believe, three ' rears ago in the Paris fcftlon. la drawing and expression thin pictare is fault!***. It is titled "The Bahearsal," An old cardinal tits listening to the rehearsal of some grand mass surrounded by moiki and re- ligions dignitaries of all kinds. The va- riety of expression on all the faces is ,ns- toniihing, from the earnest attention of the musicians to the anxious excitement of the leader of the orchestra. One sees ! the same heads of favorite \ models repeated frequently—such j as the cardinal and the ! prelate sitting just behind bin, those same j features can be seen repeated through the i crowd frequently. This single modern j picture possesses qualifications that make j it more valuable than all the Murillos that \u25a0 can be purchased. It :s the g«m of the art loan collection. An artist who paints most beautiful effects of nature, chiefly Turkish and Moor j ish scenes, without the same minuteness of \u25a0 detail, or faultlessnesa of drawing is Mr. j Benjamin Constant and who c pictures are scarcely less valuable. His pictures are very valued in Paris, where there are come very line specimens in the Luxemburg gal- j cry. He is superior to his master Caba- ! lei us an artist, and his works are much more highly prize:!. We may pride our- selves on having here a very fine example of his art, the Moo ish architecture being beautifully rendered and the graceful abandon o* the Turkish female figures very well delineated. This style is remark- able for its ease and simplicity. There is in this collection a picture by Maroius Simon, a very popular French artist, though net the most artistic, his wor&a have been very much litho- graphed and photographed but his paint- ing wants the warmth and artistic quali- ties that are visible in the great works be- Bide it. Mr. Parks' sculpture "Love Tri- umphant" is in this room. It is a won- derfal work, the marble seems so flesh- like. Tlie Vaudeville Temple. It is a matter of surprise to visitors in this city from Chicago that a Vaudeville theatre can afford to engage such fine va- riety or specialty talent in a city so far in the west, and when two other theatres are well supported. Bat Manager Brown has learned the lesion that people do sot care to pay money to witness the tort evolutions of bad dancers, nor to listen to the mu-ic of alleged vo2?lists. Hcuce none but the best-can secure an engagement. Last week scored another success, but this week promises to be even better in the engage- ment of a number of new artists. STILL WATER GLOBULES. There is just sufficient snow on the ice to spoil skating. The youngsters on the south hill are battling with the mumps. Bridge receipts for the past week amounted to $115, which is unusually large for this time of the year. The district court convenes this morn- ing at 9 o'clock, Judg9 McCluer presiding. Equity oases only will be heard.

First in the list of almost equal skill are Mrs. West and Miss Rob- son. The former is represented by a very pretty picture in water color —a fancy por- trait, entitled "Girlshead (1662). The pose is quite graceful and the picture very attractive. Her screen, the "Seasons" (1601), would graoe the richest drawing room in the land. Miss Robson's exhibit is of a mnch simpler nature, but scarcely less worthy of commendation. Her apples, "Jonathans" (1603). though not to elab- orated or to superfluously arranged, savor more of nature and less of wax fruit than the productions of a certain eastern artist whose werki are very much over- rated, but of whom it would be considered heresy to say a word of dispraise. Miss Robson'e apple* Send a pleasant glow of oontoor nbout the corner in which they are. Sho also has a pleasing water color sketoh "a gateway in Seville" 1663. Next met Miss Mann, wko, for so young em artist, shows promise of quite a successful future. Of her two pictures of still life (1609 and 1634) the latter representing the table of a stndent or literary person, is much the more artiitie work. Everything is painted with great fidelity and a pleas- ing tone pervades the picture. The other picture, though a more pop- ular subject is inclined to hardness in treatment. Next in order of merit combs Misa Wetherbee whose "Portland harbor," a misty marine, is of an atmospheric effect which is very natural. She also has a fireplace of decorated porcelain tiles (1708) which want ef space obliged to be put in the amateur room, where they are qnito cut of place, the flight of the swal- low and foliage are very well rendered. Another lady whoso works are well worthy of a placa in the£r.rti?t's room, as she is considerably above the grade of amateur, is Mrs. Williams. Her talent is quite ver- satile. She is represented by a porcelain plaque painted in verifiable colors, the frame of which is ulso carved by heretlf, likewise a carved walnut cabinet (1771 and 1772). iliaa C. V. Shaw's Western Trap- per (1660) in water color, if original, is a work of considerable merit. We think we havo seen somewhere an engrav- ing of her ';Roinan Lady" (1617). Whether the engraving was copied from her work or not is difficult to say. The lady is of the modern organ grinding class of Roman ladies, and not remarkable for the straightness of her visual orbs. Reading the title one would expect to see some toga clad matron of imperial Ceasar's days. Miss Naegle'a ' ;Nydia, the bllng girl," (1602) wants origi- nality, and is tame in execution. Her tapestry painting "Childhood," (1667), the subjeot of which was published some time 'ago in the "Art Amateur" does not sufficiently resemble the original, cbiefly on account of the human appearance of the dog. Miss Butler's tapestry, (1,668. 1779), are considerably better. Miss Clara Ilowells has a pretty water-color of "The Little Sisters" (1677) which, with Misas Place's water-color, "The Armour," (1661), and Mrs. Floyd'* portraits, (1,653, 1678) complete the list of all that are noteworthy among the lady artists. We will now take a turn among the gen- tlemen artists. Tiiero are two portraits by Mr. Bradish, Sir C. MetctiU (1611) and Thurlow Weed. (1613) the latter is macii the beet. They are painted in such ac old-fashioned style that one would imagine that he was portrait painter in ordinary to Ncah and his family. However, so long as he does not attempt figure composition, ho will not make any very great failure, Mr. Lund exhibits a well painted marine (1020) "A Stormy|Nighta " Mr. Lund wi i alwsT? be a poor artist unless he adapts him&olf more to the popular taste, cud there is li«le> or no sympathy with marine painting in this extremely inland country. He can paint landscape sufficiently well \u25a0when he wishes, only he requires to follow nature more, and work less from inspira- tion until he is thoroughly conversant with nature's effects. What pleasant reminieceuae* of Euro- pean travel are recalled to our mind on viewing Mr. Vincent de Germain's powerful picture (160b), "Muckross Abbey," one ot the great attractions of the world-famed Killarney, of which poets and musicians have sung. Mr. Herbert, proprietor of the estate, re- cently married an American heiress. This THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE MONDAY MORISUNG, DECfiMBEIv 10. 1883. Mexican vitalities' to an extent difficult to calculate. We can only guess at what it will be from our knowledge of the effects that have followed in Europe and ' this country and in Asia from the \u25a0 introduction of more active methods of transportation and of trade with the stimulus of higher prices on the spirits of the p-'oples. FIFTH HEW TOES CAVALRY. A Regiment of Over Three Ttiousind Enlistments and Nearly Two Hun- dred Battles. [Letter in New York Times.] The account by "Harris Light Cavalry" of the capture of Lee's last rations is undoubt- edly true. They were a splendid regiment. I feel inadequate to do them justice, for they are deserving of much honor. They were led to the gates of Richmond several times by Gens. Kilpatrick and Sheridan. There was a detachment of the Karris light cavalry with Col. Ulric DaWgren's famous "five hundred" that was made up from different regiments. He led them inside the city limits of Richmond on that dark and terrible night, March 1,15G4, and they were the first Union troops that entered Richmond, any- thing to the contrary notwithstanding. As a member of the Fifth New York cavalry (Isa Harris guards) I must, in jus- tice to my regiment, take exception when he says the Second York cavalry partici- pated in more engagements than any regi- ment in the Union army. He claims ]00 en- gagements and 8,000 enlistments on its mus- ter-rolls, which is a glorious record. But the historic records of . the Fifth New York cavalry show 171 engagements, and durin<» its four years of service it had 3,033 enlist> ments on its muster-rolls. The original veterans remaining: July 10, IS'«. numbered IG7. Iwill quote the late secretary of war E. M. Stanton, in reference to the Fifth New York cavalry, after the battle of Cedar Creek, Va., Oct. 10,- ISO 4, that it was the best regiment in the United States service, and had captured more artillery and battle-flags and participated in mora engagements than any other regiment in the Union service. I may not have; written the words exactly as he said them, but they are correct in the main: "Harris Light Cavalry" will pardon me if I tell him what the Fifth New York cavalry did on that day at Cedar Creek, Va., although the Harris Light Cavalry did yeoman service that day, as did all of Custer's division. After turning both flanks of the enemy and driving it in confusion across Cedar creek, on the right, the division was left in command of Col. A. C. M. Penning- ton, Jr., when the gallant Custer took the First Vermont and the Fifth New York cavalry and changed front to the left at* a gallop. . ;.'•\u25a0' • ''-•'\u25a0 There was no cheering. The creek was forded. The gallant Custer dashed by, say- ing: "Boys, when you get after that artillery I want you to go for it !" In our haste to get a position on the lull we resembled a flock of sheep more than a regiment, and before we had time to get in line Custer sang out- "Go for them, boys!" The bugle sounded the charge. Then came that terrible yell. Wo had 300 yards to go to meet the enemy. The rebels delivered one fierce volley, and tbo next instant the pitiless sabres of our men and the iron heels of the horses were doing their work. It was now dark. The charge continued for three miles. The bloody ground, thn broken muskets, the dead and wounded told of the ferocity. Only the darkness of the night put an end to the slaughter. Sheridan's victory was complete. We captured forty-five of the fourty-eight pieces of artillery taken from the enemy on that day, also many battle-flags and prison- ers, and, in fact, we captured everything Gen. Darly had that rolled on wheels. There were in both regiments less than 500 men. Never in the war was so much gained. Nor is there anything in the annals of warfare to compare with it. Ido not doubt that had the Second New York cavalry the same op- portunity they would have dons just as well as we did. That Bis Thins: in litre, Comparison [Bill Arp in Atlanta Constitution. ] Aman don't know how he is getting along unless he compares himself with his neighbors. Comparison is a big thing in this life. If Mr. Lowry hasnt got any better crop than I have I am contented, for Mr. Lowry is a good farmer. Sometimes I step around his fields and look over the fence, and if bis cotton is log and thin, and his corn pretty much all nubbins, I can't to aave my life feel bad about it. I wish I could, and I reckon I could if my own crop wasn't so much like his. Human nature is powerful mean about the like of that They say that a woman is right well satis- fied with her new dress and new bonnet until her neighbor comes to meeting with a little finer one, hr.it Ireckon that is a mistake. ] rsad not long ago about a Boston lady taking arsenic because she saw her neighbor at a party with a new sat of diamond ear-rings. She was about to die when they told her that the ear-rings were hired from a jewelry store, and then she got well. It takes a power of grace to make a man rejoice ovcj his neighbor's prosperity. The Italian Soldier. [London News.] The Italian soldier, as a rule, is short and square built and his general appearance con- veys the impression of a not over robust physique. But see him marching and it soon becomes apparent that he possesses more stamina than one would give him credit for. How nnmurmnringly he trudges for hours at a, time along a dusty road under a hot sun with his heavy knapsack on his bad: and his rifla slung acrous his shoulder. And our sur- prise is increased when we find what meagre- rations he has to sustain him under all his toil. His chief meal consists of soup made with lard, meat and rnacearoni or some other kind of paste. His mess is prepared in large caul- drons, round which at a given signal the men gather each with a tin can, into which is poured a not very abundant supply of soup and an almost invisible lump of meat. In setting out on a long march the soldier drinks the soup and keeps the meat to eat on the road. Besides this he gets coffee without milk in the morning and about two pounds of bread to last him throughout the day. A tumbler of wine is served out to him on an average every third or fourth day in the year. If his food is Spartan in its simplicity his dress is eqally exempt from the charge of luxury. A loose coat of coarse, grayish blue cloth covers the infantry soldier from neck to knee. His trousers aro of the same ma- terial, but when marching the latter are ex- changed for canvaa trousers, and when work- ing in camp, a canvas tunic is donned instead of tne coat. His headgear is a kepi, very like that in use in the French army. As regards their general disposition, I may remark that they are docile, obedient to their superiors, well-behaved, cheerful and labo- rious. In times of danger and disaster, as during the cholera of ISG7, the inundations of last year, and the occasion of the recent earthquake at Ischia, they work with an ar- dor and self-devotion which is gratefully recognized by their fellow-citizens. Eeaeonsileld and the Wine-Cap. [Temple Bar.] To the end of his life Disraeli ' always ate very sparingly when alone; this enabled him to keep a good appetite for public occasions, thereby rebutting the presumption which his pale face suggested—that he was consump- tive. In this connection some remarks or hia about wine may be mentioned. Hard drink- ing was in fashion during his youth, and at public dinners men who let the bottle pass were hardly regarded as gentlemen. Disraeli, who could never stand much wine, suffered a good deal from this social usage, and he set himself to study the demeanor of men who could drink deep without beins any the worse for it. Lord Melbourne was one of these, and he gave Disraeli a wrinkle by saying: "You can drink if you don't talk; if you taifc much you needn't drink, for people will think you're drunk and let you alona" It is obvious that the excitement of coni-e*- satioii i-juft co-operate powerfully with the m:_iL j.: f wine in making the brain riij. Disrac ii 1 aving noted this tact, went further into the subject by observing that a man's c onv vial propensities are ahvay.s taken for grrmted .f he talks in praiso of wice and ap- pears to be very critical about it. Some of las remarks savoring of the most refined epicuricnism may therefore be ascribed solely to lii--,tt inperate desire to findexcuses for not driakiug. He was net a judge 01 wines, though he pretended to be, and oiicj allowed I himself to lay down the law about Burgundy against the late Lord Sef ton. JJarely in Time. [The Continent.] "By the way, I was speaking to a very intelligent station-master the other day about the crop of holiday railway accidents. 'Do you think,' I said, 'it has much to do with the long hoursP He at once replied, I with the utmost warmth and eagerness: 'Sir, • you can take your stand upon that. If you 1 are ever in company where that question is started you willbe right in denouncing the hours. No one will be able to reply to you then. Undoubtedly, the men are worn out, oppressed and fatigued beyond all powers of attention. " 'Look at that poor fellow in yonder signal- box,' and he pointed to one hard by; 'he has been there for twelve hours at a stretch— every day it is the same thing. That man I has not even time to snatch a quiet meal, no ' rest, dare not relax for a minute. Well, j what's the consequence! Some break down > and die off, others go off their heads, and I you never can tell when the break down is ' coming. The men won't give in—it's their j bread ; the station-master daren't complain, ! and the directors know it They don't care ! for the public safety; they can afford the damages. Human life is nothing to them, f nor human hearts and brains either. The thing,' he added, 'is scandalous, shameful, notorious.' j "Atthat moment an express was sighted; his quick eye caught the pointsman flagging. 'Jolin, look sharp!' and he hurried off.

[Chicago Tribune.] The following curious incident actually oc- curred recently: "Whilst a clergyman was in the midst of his sermon a person entered the church and in the coolest manner possible sauntered up the aisle. No sooner had the preacher's eye lighted on the newcomer than, dropping the thread of his sermon, he said to him: Come in, my friend, come in; we are always glad to see those here late who can't . come'early." The unknown individual stepped forward, coolly took his seat and then as j coolly asked the preacher, "Would you oblige • me with the text?" "Certainly," was the re- ; ply and the request having been complied with the sermon proceeded. Railroads Ten Miles Apart. ["Gath" in New York Tribune.] I asked a wealthy man who is a heavy stockholder in many railroad lines and also a farmer, ifhe thought there was not too much railroad competition coming. Said he: "I have expressed the opinion for the last fifteen years that a state as rich, for example, as lowa, where Ilived a good while, could sup- port railroads ten miles apart, and I see reason every day to confirm my judgment. I mean that when the land is settled as thickly as it should be for the character of the soil, that railroads ten miles apart can j get all the traffic they want?" Edison's Wife.

[London Herald.] Italy is getting as .much ahead of us as America. La Signora Lydia Poet has just been admitted to practice at the bar of Turin, and appeared for the first time in her barris- ter's gown to plead ' the cause of a young painter, whose pictures had been unjustlyde- tained by his landlord, and much injured by the damp of the garret to which they had .been consigned. The lady barrister obtained a great success for her humorous description of the subject of the pictures, and, amid much applause, obtained a verdict with goodly'damages in favor of her client. Sho was escorted home, still enveloped in her law- yer's robes, by a large concourse of people, who gave her a serenade in the evening, in which the tenor voice of the young painter was conspicuous for its deep expression. The Happiest Woman. [New York Letter.] j The happiest woman I know lives in a [ small one-story cottage behind which are two | rows of corn and a patch of sunflowers, and ' a little brook that thirstily hurries along to Cud more water. All she has in the world to "protect" is the "strong-limbed, unam- bitious husband, who pauses but few times from morning until night even to wave a willing hand at her from a small marble j quarry two rods away. She says: "I will ' work for Tom in my way, but he must work for me. A woman who will, may." A Serious Mistake.

[Special Telegram to the Globe. | Washington, Dec. B.—The postmaster I at Bright Seat, Md., was yesterdey re- j I moved. Tina aotion was based upon a re- j j port of an inspector who was sent to investigate the cause of the great increase • in the office, which had advanced from ] $20 per quarter to $300. The ] inspector found that this was dne to the fact that I a Mr. Suit had sent his mail from that | office, and had entered into an agreement . with the postmaster to share the commis- sions derived from the cancellation of the stamps. The same man, by withdrawing his mail from a neighboring office, had re- duced it from the presidential rank to a foarth-class office. SUICIDE AT BIPON, WI3.

Mr. Boyd purchased, through the firm of which the defendants were members, Reading rail- road scrip to the amount of $234,300, and which he left in the custody of the firm with the understanding that it was not to be sold, but was to be kept until called in by the railroad company. The defendants claim the scrip was bought to be sold again, and the differences only to be settled between them and Boyd. The scrip was subsequently hypothecated by the firm and the money obtained there- from lost in speculation. The defendants' answer to the charge of embezzlement was, first, that all transactions were stock gambling and illegal; second, they had to appropriate the money to their own use, and therefore the debt was not fraudulent- ly contracted; third, that the usages and practices of brokers warranted all they did. jftWß SUICIDE.

No where is the babe co honored as in thechurch; although in the oivilized oitiea of

(America, like B :ston, New York and Min-1neapolis, mothers forget the love theyshould bear their children.

One of the signs of the truth of God's 'church is that the poor have the gospel!preaohed to them.

The laborer is honored and protected bythe church, while in heathen natipns he isdespised atid dishonored. In heathen In-dia it is believed that from Brahma'smouth came tbe priests; from bis shoul-ders the kings and governors; from hisbody the artizins and agriculturists and Ifrom his feet tho laborers. They are tho |lowest ia ciste. Men in onr day are at- ;

tempting to revive heathenism, but, my jbrethren, you now see how heathenismcompares with Christianity. In conclu-sion he asked his ilock to reverence theholy name of Jeans, and lamented the fre-quency with which that device name isblasphemized, even by the Catholic youthof thi3 city.

Last evening closed the most successfulweek of the art loan exhibition. Therehas been a number of excellent additionsto the display, and the attendance has in-creased almost daily.

To every true Minneapolitan, and wemay say ievery Minnesotian, for Minne-apolis is : 'idly rising to bo the art capi-

Hithertothe people of Minneapolis haye never hadsuch a chance oi knowing what a numberof good ;'.rti«ts they had in their midst,and it is full time that we should appreci-ate them as they deserve.

There is no longer need that we haverecourse, for the decoration of our houses,to showy chromoa or vulgar paintings\u25a0manufactured by ignorant daubers, whichhave a certain tendency to destroy oartastes, or when we v?lch for pood pictures,to allow ourselver. to be vic*i_iized by thefabrieants of "old masters.

We have seen iv tho Athenaeum libraryin the "Illustrated London News," of 1879,April2S, page 391, anotice ofMr.Vincent deGermaiii's successful competition againstBritish artists for the "Tajlot" art schol-arship. He has devoted seven or eightyears to the study of art under tho bestmasters in Paris and Atwerp. His workshave been accepted in the Paris salonand conspicuously placed. The littlewater color, "AtCharenton, on the Mame"(1664), was on the line in tho salon of 1833,when of 11,000 pictures cent from allparts of the world only 2,500 to 3,000 wereaccepted. We hope that withsuch a record of Europeansuccess, Mr. Vincent de Germain will receive every inducement to remain amongus, by the speedy sale of his works.

Mr. Weinard, an artist who has aban-doned the more artistic medium, oil paint-ing, for a more money making fresoo,contributed some very good works. His"Italian boy" (.1,627) is an academy studydone by him in the Brussell's academy ofarts, which won for 'aim at the time, firstprize for painting. It is most artistic inits style and coloring.

THE HANDTHAT ROCKS THE •WORLIX

[William Ross Wallace.]Blessings on the hand of woman !

Angels guard bar strength and grace .In the cottage, palace, hovel,

O, no matter where the place!Would that never storms assailed, it;

Rainbows ever gently curled;For the hand that rocks the cradle

Is the hand that rocks the world.

Infancy's the tender fountain;Power may with beauty (low,

Mothers first to guide the streamlet,From them souls unrest grow.—

Grow on for the good or evil,Sunshine streamed or darkness hurled;

For the hand that rocks the cradleIs the hand that rocks the world.

"Women how divine your mission• Here upon our natal sod;

Keep, oh keep the young heart openAlways to the breath of God!

Alltrue trophies of the AgesAre from Mother Love impearled;

For the hand that rocks the cradleIs the hand that rocks the world.

Blessings on the hand of woman!Fathers, sons and daughters cry,

And the sacred song is mingledWith the worship of the sky—

Mingles where no tempest darkens,Rainbows evermore are curled;

For the hand that rocks the cradleIs the hand that rocks the world.

OUR RAILROAD FUTURE,

The Outlines of the Railroad Conquest

of Our Continent. •

A Bffetwork ofRoads Which WillIn.elude Canada and Mexico—-

Annexation and a Pro-tectorate.

[Chicago Tribune.]Ths rapidity with which tha railroad en-

terprises in Canada and Mexico are beingpushed to completion suggests some exceed-inglyinteresting forecasts with regard to thaeffects that may be expected to follow intrade and trade legislation, in politics and inpolitical geography, as well as in the per-sonal habits and prosperity of the people ofthe North American continent. The CanadianPacific, it is now announced, vrill be done intwo years. It is already graded for 1,000miles, clear up to the Rocky mountains. Itsprojectors ridicule the rumors of finan-cial embarrassment which have lately gotafloat. They have, according to their state-,ments, enough money on hand of their ownand the government's aot only to finish thajroad, but to equip it. ho work on the Mex-ican Central, the Boston enterprise, is pro-ceeding so much more rapidly than at firstplanned that it will be finished next springinstead of late in the summer. Besides thisroad, which runs down from El Paso, thereis another in active construction from Laredosouthward which v.-ill be done next summer.These roads ran from the north down to theCity of Mexico. There is another transconti-nental road on a small scale which is beingpushed through from Tampico de Tamauli-pas, on the gulf of Mexico, to San Bias, onthe Pacific.

.THE FUTURE FORESHADOWED.

The grand outlines of the railroad conquestof the American continent will bj filled inwith the driving of the last spikes of thesoenterprises. Much in the way of details willremain to be inlaid in our mosaic ofrailroads,but the main design will be completed. Thocontrol of the enormous system will bo thecontrol of the industry of the Americancontinent. Where this control is likelyto rest is probably foreshadowed in thefact that the direction and constructionof these enterprises ia now almost en-tirely in the hands of Americans. Thelines into Mexico are being pushed by Amer-ican financiering and American brains^ andtbd great tine across Canada, though sab-aidized by Canadian gifts of land and track,is in the hands ofa syndicate in which Amer-ican influence is predominant. Canada foundite highest inspiration for the generosity withwhich it treated the Canadian Pacific fa theidea that thereby it would obtain an inde-pendent line across ' from ocean to ocean onCftondian soil, bat it is already plain that theCanadian Pacific will be bat a spur of thamighty mileage of the United States.

THE TAKKBE IEBESIBTIBI.E.The confederating tendencies at work in

the American network ofrailroads cannot boresisted by the Mexican and Canadian roads.The same irresistible attractions of trafficthatmake tho Grand Trunk of Canada more en-ergetic in extending its American than any.other connections will ] "II the CanadianPacific towards American business. Mexicanrailroad development must inevitably fallinto tributary relations to the two or threecorporations and pools that have tho south-west now entirely in their possession. Thefew foreign stockholders these various enter-prises have will drop out one after anotherwhenever there is a flurry in the stockmarket, for they will not have the abiding

faith of those on the ground. One of theleast remote consequences of the completionof the lines into Mexico may be tho descentof the English road between Vera Cruz andthe City of Mexico into American hands.That corporation has had a monopoly whichit has improved by the most extortionatecharges of 10 or 12 cents a mile forpassengers and as much for the freight of ahundred pounds as our roads charge for aton. The American lines will break up thisextortion and cut down the profits of the oldroad to a point that will very likelymake itspresent owners glad to sell out at a sacrificeto their competitor.

AS THE RAILROADS MAY SAY.On 3of the first things the railroad intjresi

willwant, north as well as south, will be themodification of the restrictions put on tradebetween the United States and its neighbors.Railroads are for transportation, and thatmeans trade. The taxes, and inspections,and regulations about bonding and all thatgoes with frontier meddling with trade willall cut into the receipts of the railroads, andthose corporations willbe certain to use theirinfluence to have the way made smoother fortheir benefit. The ratification of the Mexicanreciprocity treaty, which comes up in "Wash-ington next winter, willbe very likely to goas the railroads say. The half-dozen poolsthat willcontrol the railroad business of thewhole continent from Hudson's bay to thegulf of Tehuantepec will have a scanty re-1spect for the imaginary lines that divide their Ipolitical dependencies. They will effect a Icommercial annexation which willbe more Ithan likely to result in political annexation Iin the north and perhaps a protectorate in the Isouth.

THE HEBOIc'Tr.EATMEST.Awar with Mexico is by no means one of

tha impossible consequences of the railroadinvasion of the Cactus Republic. The gov-ernment has incurred very heavy obligationsto half a dozen American corporations forsubsidies. The Mexican has never bean re-nowned for his fidelity to financial engage-ments. Ifthe Mexican government, in one.of its fits of repudiation, should attempt tothrow over its American beneficiaries, thepowerful men who are interested in thosesubsidized enterprises—men like Gen. Grantand Jay Gould—might find iteasy enough tosmbroil the two countries in a struggle thedisguised object of which would be reachedwhen Mexico was put under a protectorateand all its obligations towards American en-terprises assumed by the United States, se-cured by Mexican revenues and Mexicanproperty.

INTO A NEVT CAREEB.. The entrance of American methods oftransportation, bringing American capital,energy and enthusiasm into the ancientstupor of Mexican wealth, will be certain tosend that country forward with an immenseboned in a new career. The mere rise of thelow level of the Mexican prices to the higherAmerican averages will be a cruickener

THEHILLI!CLLECTION.

We will do* just inke a cursory glance atthe pictures in the collection loaned byJ.J. Sill, of St. Paul, which, for so verys;nail a collection, is perhaps one of therichest we have s-een compresstd, so tospeak, in a nut shell.

The Evening Journal says that the pic-tures are all masterpieces of the Frenchschool. The critic of the E. J. is not quiterightly informed.

The two best works in it are by Spanishartists, though residents of Paris? Thecritic of the Journal cannot have seen thepicture, "Blindman's Buff," or ho wouldnot have said that it was by C. H. Ban-quiet. The name of Cossanova, the greatSpanish French artist, is sufficiently wellknown, and is legiole enough tinder thepicture. The great artist has in this pic-ture erred very much against the propor-tions of the human figures of the Spanishladies, but the drawing of ILo hands isreally beautiful and the paintingof the furniture nod int. rior is remark-able for that park'e and brilliancy forwhich the Spanish reliant not Is.

The former is represented by a verypretty picture in water color —a fancy por-trait, entitled "Girlshead (1662). Thepose is quite graceful and the picture veryattractive. Her screen, the "Seasons"(1601), would graoe the richest drawingroom in the land. Miss Robson's exhibitis of a mnch simpler nature, but scarcelyless worthy of commendation. Her apples,"Jonathans" (1603). though not to elab-orated or to superfluously arranged, savormore of nature and less of wax fruit thanthe productions of a certain easternartist whose werki are very much over-rated, but ofwhom it would be consideredheresy to say a word of dispraise.

met Miss Mann, wko, for so young emartist, shows promise of quite a successfulfuture. Of her two pictures of still life(1609 and 1634) the latter representing thetable ofa stndent or literary person, ismuch the more artiitie work. Everythingis painted with great fidelity and a pleas-ing tone pervades the picture.

The other picture, though a more pop-ular subject is inclined to hardness intreatment. Next in order of merit combs

Misa Wetherbee whose "Portland harbor,"a misty marine, is of an atmosphericeffect which is very natural. She also hasa fireplace of decorated porcelain tiles(1708) which want ef space obliged to beput in the amateur room, where they areqnito cut of place, the flight of the swal-low and foliage are very well rendered.Another lady whoso works are well worthyof a placa in the£r.rti?t's room, as she isconsiderably above the grade of amateur,is Mrs. Williams. Her talent is quite ver-satile. She is represented by a porcelainplaque painted in verifiable colors, theframe of which is ulso carved by heretlf,likewise a carved walnut cabinet (1771 and1772). iliaa C. V. Shaw's Western Trap-per (1660) in water color, iforiginal, is awork of considerable merit. We thinkwe havo seen somewhere an engrav-ing of her ';Roinan Lady" (1617). Whetherthe engraving was copied from herwork or not is difficult tosay. The lady is of the modernorgan grinding class ofRoman ladies, andnot remarkable for the straightness of hervisual orbs. Reading the title one wouldexpect to see some toga clad matron ofimperial Ceasar's days. Miss Naegle'a

';Nydia, the bllng girl,"(1602) wants origi-nality, and is tame in execution. Hertapestry painting "Childhood," (1667),the subjeot of which was published sometime 'ago in the "ArtAmateur" does notsufficiently resemble the original, cbieflyon account of the human appearance ofthe dog. Miss Butler's tapestry, (1,668.1779), are considerably better. Miss

Clara Ilowells has a pretty water-color of"The Little Sisters" (1677) which, withMisas Place's water-color, "The Armour,"(1661), and Mrs. Floyd'* portraits, (1,653,1678) complete the list of all that arenoteworthy among the lady artists.

We will now take a turn among the gen-

tlemen artists. Tiiero are two portraitsby Mr. Bradish, Sir C. MetctiU (1611) and

Thurlow Weed. (1613) the latter is macii

FIFTH HEW TOES CAVALRY.A Regiment of Over Three Ttiousind

Enlistments and Nearly Two Hun-dred Battles.

[Letter in New YorkTimes.]The account by "Harris Light Cavalry" of

the capture of Lee's last rations is undoubt-edly true. They were a splendid regiment.Ifeel inadequate to do them justice, for theyare deserving of much honor. They wereled to the gates of Richmond several timesby Gens. Kilpatrick and Sheridan. Therewas a detachment of the Karris light cavalrywith Col. Ulric DaWgren's famous "fivehundred" that was made up from differentregiments. He led them inside the citylimits of Richmond on that dark and terriblenight, March 1,15G4, and they were the firstUnion troops that entered Richmond, any-thing to the contrary notwithstanding.

As a member of the Fifth New Yorkcavalry (Isa Harris guards) I must, in jus-tice to my regiment, take exception when hesays the Second York cavalry partici-pated in more engagements than any regi-ment in the Union army. He claims ]00 en-gagements and 8,000 enlistments on its mus-ter-rolls, which isa glorious record. But thehistoric records of . the Fifth New Yorkcavalry show 171 engagements, and durin<»its four years of service it had 3,033 enlist>ments on its muster-rolls. The originalveterans remaining: July 10, IS'«. numberedIG7. Iwill quote the late secretary of warE. M. Stanton, in reference to the FifthNew York cavalry, after the battle of CedarCreek, Va., Oct. 10,- ISO4, that it was the bestregiment in the United States service, andhad captured more artillery and battle-flagsand participated in mora engagements thanany other regiment in the Union service. Imay not have; written the words exactly ashe said them, but they are correct in themain: "Harris Light Cavalry" will pardonme if I tell him what the Fifth New Yorkcavalry did on that day at Cedar Creek, Va.,although the Harris Light Cavalry didyeoman service that day, as didall of Custer'sdivision. After turning both flanks of theenemy and driving it in confusion acrossCedar creek, on the right, the division wasleft in command of Col. A. C. M. Penning-ton, Jr., when the gallant Custer took theFirst Vermont and the Fifth New Yorkcavalry and changed front to the left at* agallop. . ;.'•\u25a0' • ''-•'\u25a0

There was no cheering. The creek wasforded. The gallant Custer dashed by, say-ing: "Boys, when you get after that artilleryIwant you to go forit!" Inour haste to geta position on the lull we resembled a flockofsheep more than a regiment, and before wehad time to get in line Custer sang out- "Gofor them, boys!" The bugle sounded thecharge. Then came that terrible yell. Wohad 300 yards to go to meet the enemy. Therebels delivered one fierce volley, and tbonext instant the pitiless sabres of our menand the iron heels of the horses were doingtheir work. Itwas now dark. The chargecontinued for three miles. The bloodyground, thn broken muskets, the dead andwounded told of the ferocity. Only thedarkness of the night put an end to theslaughter. Sheridan's victory was complete.We captured forty-five of the fourty-eightpieces of artillery taken from the enemy onthat day, also many battle-flags and prison-ers, and, in fact, we captured everythingGen. Darly had that rolled onwheels. Therewere in both regiments less than 500 men.Never in the war was so much gained. Noris there anything in the annals of warfare tocompare with it. Ido not doubt that hadthe Second New York cavalry the same op-portunity they would have dons just as wellas we did.That Bis Thins: in litre, Comparison

The Italian Soldier.[London News.]

The Italian soldier, as a rule, is short andsquare built and his general appearance con-veys the impression of a not over robustphysique. But see him marching and it soonbecomes apparent that he possesses morestamina than one would give him credit for.How nnmurmnringly he trudges for hours ata, time along a dusty road under a hot sunwith his heavy knapsack on his bad: and hisrifla slung acrous his shoulder. And our sur-prise is increased when we find what meagre-rations he has to sustain him under all histoil.

His chief meal consists of soup made withlard, meat and rnacearoni or some other kindof paste. His mess is prepared in large caul-drons, round which at a given signal the mengather each with a tin can, into which ispoured a not very abundant supply of soupand an almost invisible lump of meat. Insetting out on a long march the soldier drinksthe soup and keeps the meat to eat on theroad. Besides this he gets coffee withoutmilk in the morning and about two poundsof bread to last him throughout the day. Atumbler of wine is served out to him on anaverage every third or fourth day in theyear.

Ifhis food is Spartan in its simplicity hisdress is eqally exempt from the charge ofluxury. A loose coat of coarse, grayish bluecloth covers the infantry soldier from neckto knee. His trousers aro of the same ma-terial, but when marching the latter are ex-changed for canvaa trousers, and when work-ing in camp, a canvas tunic is donned insteadof tne coat. His headgear is a kepi, verylike that in use in the French army.

As regards their general disposition, Imayremark that they are docile, obedient to theirsuperiors, well-behaved, cheerful and labo-rious. Intimes of danger and disaster, asduring the cholera of ISG7, the inundations oflast year, and the occasion of the recentearthquake at Ischia, they work with an ar-dor and self-devotion which is gratefullyrecognized by their fellow-citizens.

Eeaeonsileld and the Wine-Cap.[Temple Bar.]

To the end of his life Disraeli ' always atevery sparingly when alone; this enabled himto keep a good appetite for public occasions,thereby rebutting the presumption which hispale face suggested—that he was consump-tive. In this connection some remarks or hiaabout wine may be mentioned. Hard drink-ing was in fashion during his youth, and atpublic dinners men who let the bottle passwere hardly regarded as gentlemen. Disraeli,who could never stand much wine, suffered agood deal from this social usage, and he sethimself to study the demeanor of men whocould drink deep without beins any the worsefor it. Lord Melbourne was one of these, andhe gave Disraeli a wrinkle by saying: "Youcan drink if you don't talk; if you taifc muchyou needn't drink, for people will thinkyou're drunk and let you alona"

It is obvious that the excitement of coni-e*-satioii i-juft co-operate powerfully with them:_iLj.: f wine in making the brain riij.Disrac ii 1 aving noted this tact, went furtherinto the subject by observing that a man'sc onv vial propensities are ahvay.s taken forgrrmted .fhe talks in praiso of wice and ap-pears to be very critical about it. Some oflas remarks savoring of the most refinedepicuricnism may therefore be ascribed solelyto lii--,tt inperate desire to findexcuses for notdriakiug.

"By the way, Iwas speaking to a veryintelligent station-master the other dayabout the crop of holiday railway accidents.'Do you think,' I said, 'it has much to dowith the long hoursP He at once replied,

I with the utmost warmth and eagerness: 'Sir,• you can take your stand upon that. Ifyou1 are ever in company where that question is

The following curious incident actually oc-curred recently: "Whilst a clergyman was inthe midst of his sermon a person entered thechurch and in the coolest manner possiblesauntered up the aisle. No sooner had thepreacher's eye lighted on the newcomer than,dropping the thread of his sermon, he said tohim: Come in, my friend, come in; we arealways glad to see those here late who can't .come'early." The unknown individual steppedforward, coolly took his seat and then as jcoollyasked the preacher, "Would you oblige •

me with the text?" "Certainly," was the re- ;ply and the request having been compliedwith the sermon proceeded.

Railroads Ten Miles Apart.["Gath" in New York Tribune.]

Iasked a wealthy man who is a heavystockholder in many railroad lines and also afarmer, ifhe thought there was not too muchrailroad competition coming. Said he: "Ihave expressed the opinion for the last fifteenyears that a state as rich, for example, aslowa, where Ilived a good while, could sup-port railroads ten miles apart, and I seereason every day to confirm my judgment.I mean that when the land is settled asthickly as it should be for the character ofthe soil, that railroads ten miles apart can jget all the traffic they want?"

Philadelphia, Dec. B.—Judge Finletterin a long opinion, sustained the warrants'or arrest against Win. C. Barret and Ed-

ward J. Cattell, broke™, accused of em-bezzlement by August Boyd, and orderedeach of the defendants to furnish securityin $20,000 to answer at court. Mr. Boydpurchased, through the firm of which thedefendants were members, Reading rail-road scrip to the amount of $234,300, andwhich he left in the custody of the firmwith the understanding that it was not tobe sold, but was to be kept untilcalled in by the railroad company. Thedefendants claim the scrip was bought tobe sold again, and the differences only tobe settled between them and Boyd. Thescrip was subsequently hypothecated bythe firm and the money obtained there-from lost in speculation. The defendants'answer to the charge of embezzlementwas, first, that all transactions were stockgambling and illegal; second, they had toappropriate the money to their own use,and therefore the debt was not fraudulent-lycontracted; third, that the usages andpractices of brokers warranted all theydid.jftWß SUICIDE.
