New Haven Register. That is, we take it for granted you are. To beein at the beeinincr. Six thous and vears ago, or thereabouts, Adam and Eve were warned out of the ear- den of Eden and moved on to the big fatm. What a simple move th at was, Eve gathered her collaterals together in her fig leaf apron and walked out; Adam followed, eating tbe apple close to the core. Noah moved up to Mt. Araratt and to a drv and healthfal climate, by wa ter, thus giving the canal builders of our day a hint as to the "lock" and the proper mode of makirg a boat climb a hill. The children of Israel were forty years moving from Eygpt to Canaan, the longest move on record. They could have made it in ten days with the present r ailroad facilities. Our foresathers moyed to this coun try in the -"Mayflower," thus setting the fashion. We have always moved with the hrst Mayflower ever since. Mankind aas been continually "on the move" ever since it existed, and notwithstanding all its practice never has learned the art to perfection. we erive a few hints: - . . , , 1 I 1 l IT Do not attempt to move Dy wneeioar row or handcart. Some worthy truck man would thus be deprived or an op- portumtv to charge upon you, mistak insr vou for a millionaire. Move all tne Dnc-a-orac ana parior ornaments first. It is important that thev should be displayed with elegance on the load. The truckman should have the most aesthetic taste Keyer mind beating the carpets ; beat the landlord you are leaving. Kemem ber, he refused to put $2 gilt paper on the hall bed room, and dunned you for rent in the presence of your wire s tatn fir Settle the parlor first. You might have comDanv. vou know ; and it is al together useless to get tne Dusmess ena of the house running too soon. Better fix the kitchen at long range. As to the beds, slat 'em up anyhow about ten o'clock in the evening. You might feel like taking a nap about that time, The crockery you .will pack carefully in the washtub, or course. This is one of tbe time honored laws of moving that would be an ill omen to break eS' peciallv the crockery. The coal noa snouia do carried tena erlv. Fill it full of coal and let the eld est boy tug it along. It will learn him a lesson or patience ana aeveiop nis biceDS. Dump the entire lot or lumiture into one room in the most indiscriminate manner possible. This will cultivate "natural selection." and will end in the What Happened Ce Hint Pace In New Harem Joslah Qulncy in N. T. Independent. A s t.hft nresent paper has had so much concern with Mr. Webster, I will con clude it by gmng an' incident which occurred some years- afterward, and which will show the overwhelming effect which his mere personal presence wrouget upon men. The route between Boston and New York by the way of New Haven had just been opened and I was occupying a seat With Mr. Web ster when the cars stopped at the latter city. Mr. Webster wasnot quite well, and, saying that he thought it weald be prudent to take seme brandy, asked me to accompany him in search of it. We accordingly entered a oar-room near the station, .and the order was given. The attendant, without looking at his customer, mechanically took a decan ter from a shelf behind nim and placed it near some glasses on the counter. Just as Webster was about to help him self , the bar tender happening to look up, started, as it he had seen a spirit, and cried "Stop P with great vehemence. He then took the decanter from Web ster's hand, replaced it on the shelf from whence it came, and disappeared beneath the counter. Rising from these depths, he bore to the surface an old fashioned black bottle, which he sub stituted for the decanter. Webster poured a small quantity into a glass, drank it oft with great reusn, ana tnrew down halt ot a aoiiar in payment, ine barkeeper beean to fumble in a drawer of silver, as if selecting some smaller pieces of change ; whereupon Webster waived his hand with dignity, and with rich and authoritive tones pronounced tnese woras : -my good inena, let me offer you a piece or advice. Whenever you give that good brandy from umder the counter, never take the trouble to make change. As we turned to go out. the dealer in liquors placed one hand upon the bar. threw himself over it, and caught me by the arm. "Tell me who that man isr he cried with genu ine emotion. "He is Daniel W eoster, I answered. The man paused, as if to nnd words adequate to convey tne im pression made upon him, ana men ex claimed, in a fervent half whisper: "Bv heaven, sir. that man should be President of the umcea (States r xne adjuration was stronger than i nave written it : but it was not uttered pro fanely it was simply the emphasis of an overpowering conviction, ine in cident was but a straw upon the current ; but it illustrates the commanding mag netism of Webster. Without asking the reason, men once subjected to his spell were compelled te love, to honor. ana so some cynics wouia wisu vo auu to forgive him. No man ot mark ever satisfied the imagination so com pletely. The voung men of to-day who go to Washington find a city of luxuri ous appointments and noble buildings, very different from the capital oi mua- dv streets and scattered houses with which l was laminar. $ut wnere is the living figure, cast in hereic mould, to represent the ideal of American man hood?

BER W ANGER & BRO., CLOTHIERS AND TAILORS France and Tunis. France has evidently determined to take a military promenade on the Al gerian frontier, besides what isolated attacks the Tunisian affronts may ren der necessary. The i rench case 13 this : v or nearly two hundred miles the Algerian iron tier marches with that of Tunis, and for all that distance a belt of French territory, fifty miles broad, is troubled Dy Dorder raids Dy tae Jiroumirs ana their neighbors. France claims from Tunis the return of 1.670 oxen ana 100 horses and mules, and the payment of an indemnity of $60,000, as compensa tion for acts of incendsarism said to have been committed by the Tunisian marauders. This represents the dam age done to Algeria in the last eight months, as assessed by themselves, it was while negotiations aoout these claims were proceeding that the recent raid of the Kroumirs brought matters to a crisis. France has demanded au thority to cross the frontier and chas tise the Kroumirs, but these only mus ter two thousand fighting men, only two-thirds of whem Iiave fire-arms. Yet 10.000 French soldiers were to have Deen sent to reinforce the army at Al geria. It is generally thought that there is a lurking desire for a protecto rate that will mean annexation. The cry is raised that if France recoils bet fore the rebuffs of the Bey or fails to avenge the violations of her frontier, there will be an Arab rising in Alegef na. France has also interests ia Tu nis. Of the Tunisian debt of $25,600,- 000, French bondholders hold $20,000,- 000. Frenchmen own property in xu; nis valued at over six millions.
