Mr. Washington Ives, chairman of the English coniinitlce of the Jamaica exhibition, utiles to the Pull Mall Gazette that he never expected the en terprise would be a financial success, but in other respects it is likely to be of lasting benefit to the island. It has improved trade, strengthened t'.e rev enue, brought visitors from Canada, tho United Slates and Kuiope, and lias aroused an interest in the islanders. So happy have been the results of this bringing together of the produce of Jamaica, in calling attention to its people and creating new industries, that t lie iiovernor, Sir Henry A. Blake, suggests that an exhibition of a permanent character be established. Undoubtedly, concludes Mr. Ives, th0 undertaking, so successfully carried out, has been the moat important event in the historv of the island. Tho beneficial effects o legislation Tccently enacted by Congre-s, at the instance of the War Department, to Cure the evil of desertion uro now be coming manifest, Loles the New York Times. April and May usually show the heaviest record of desertions, for the reason that farming operations aro resumed, and the dissatisfied soldiers who are inclined to desert nro reason ably suve of finding work and shelter. Figures prepared at the War Depart ment show that in April, 1S86, the de sertions from the army numbered 286; in April, 1H!)0, they were 201, and in April of this year they had de creased to 112. The new laws for the amelioration of tho condition of the privates are believed to be responsible for this decrease, although they have been in general and practical opera tion only i-inee last November. It is now possible for any enlisted man to buy his discharge if discontented with his condition, and most of them pre fer to do so rather than desert. The establishment of the canteen, reduc tion of hours of duty, and oilier changes have also operated to make the private better satisfied with his life. Senator Maiubrson thinks that one of the means that should bo employed in taming tho savage bands of Indians which are making lifo a burden to the people and the soldiers on the frontier is to "take away their ponies and supply oxen instead." lie would also take away their firearms. Tho confiscation of their arms would evi dently be a wise move, adds the American Dairyman. The "noble red man" is altogether too careless iu his ' use of deadly weapons. While the disarmament project commends itself to everyone who desires to sec Indian outrages suppressed, it is not sc easy to understand what benefit is to result from an exchange of horses for oxen. These uncivilized sons of the forest know no more about using oxen for agricultural purposes than they do about writing poetry in the Greek language. Until they were taught to use them oxen would be of no use to tho Indians, and it is safe to assume that the Indians would bo of no use to the oxen. But, whatever may be the case with In dians, there are a good many white men who might profitably keep less horses and more oxen. Thirty years ; ago, in large portions of New Eng- j , land, a great many oxen were kept for j (r ' farm work. Gradually the oxen dis w f ' j 'appeared and horses wero substituted, j "r''l , There were some advantages iu tho j ' change, but there were also serious ( j ' drawbacks. In some respects and for j eomo purposes horses made abetter ' 1 team, but there are places in which V 'i Wion aro superior. There is a good JV, .deal of expense in the first cost of the j i f -S.; teani and in tho expenso of keeping. ' iWe believe that tho tide will turn and '''Stliaf 'oxen for labor on small farms 'vVlll regain much of their lost popu larity. The man who raisos nice steer8 and trains them well will be Tory like . ly to find them us saleable a, any ani ; .mols on his farm. . ;- rElELS OF THOTUM. Feputation is what men and wrac think of us. j We say that every man is entitled to be valued by his best moment A talent is perfected in solitude; a 1 character iu the streams of tho world. The soul has no pillow on which to repose so soft and sweet as a good conscience. Let men laugh, if they will, when you sacrifice desire to duty. You have both lime and eternity. However matters go, tho worst shall bo a tired traveller, and a joyful and sweet welcome home. If thou art wise, thou knowest thine own ignorance, and thou art ignorant if thou knowest not thyself. Truth only smells sweet forever, and illusions, however innocent, are as deadly as the caukor-wonn. Every man has a weak side. Every wise man knows whero it is, and will be sure to keep a double guard there. Eve "V man feels instinctively that nil the beautiful sentiments in tho world weigh less than a single lovely action. The "Windows of the Soul." Eyes have always been regarded as a sure tribal characteristic. Tacitus, for example, describes tho Germans as "fierce, with blue eyes and red hair." The Celts are mentioned as being swarthy skinned and black-eyed; tho (jlauls arc red-haired and ligh'-?ycd, while the Nubians, tho Turks, the Egyptians and the Italians havo al ways been spoken of as "the dark oyed races." These peculiarities have not changed. Even today tho people of the temperate zones have, gener ally, light-colored eyos, while those of the torrid and frigid .jnes arc usually dark, or even black. Of the races in particular, the only one that can be said to be "light-eyed" is tho Caucas sian, and even in this race the eyes are by no means uniform in point of color. Tho whole period of human history goes to prove that the light haired, blue-eyed races aro capable of the highest degree of civilization, but it does not by any means follow that the highest degroo of civilization is confined to people of blonde complex ion. There was a time when a blue-, eyed person was rarely seen, and to day seven-eights of the world's inhab itants havo dark eyes. Lavatcr, when discussing the eyo as a feature in Na tional physiogoniy, gave the following as the results of his observation : "The Italians have small eyes; the Germans, light-colored eyes surround ed by many wrinkles; the English, strong, open, steadfast eyes; and the Swiss, eyes that are very dull-looking." St. Louis Republic. Ail Important Mip of Paper. The most important document (hat issues from tho United States sub treasury in Wall street is a small print ed slip of paper on which is ollicially slated the daily amount of customs re ceived at the port of New York. Chi cago nor any other city has anything to compare with it in the magnitude of the money figures represented in it, for it shows the bulk of the income of the nation. Triplicate copies of the receipt are made every business day iu the year at the sub-treasury. One goes direct to the treasury department, another is sent to the collector of customs as a voucher and the third is transmitted to the naval officer. The only reason known to the officers for sending the latter officer a copy is that it is in accord with an old custom. The total amount of moneys that have passed from the custom house to the sub-treasury on the official route to the nation's treasury in tho past SO years is csiimatcd at three thousand and nine hundred millions of dollars (thirty .nine billions), a far greater sum than the entiro debt of the coun try. New York News. Hunting and Destroying; Wrecks. When ships are lost at sea the wrecks become very dangerous to other ves sels. An ocean steamer under full speed at night or iu a storm to crash into .an old hulk might mean death and destruclion to hundreds of peoplo and to the ship as well. Anybody knows that, but not many people know how brave sailors go for weeks np and down along the coast to find these wrecks and take them out of other vessels' way. It is a hard piece of work, requiring great courage and endurance, and the only glory in It lies in k.iowing one has done well. Tho United States steamer Yaulic hat been seventy-six days this year hunt ing these wrecks and destroying them, and now there is not a single obstruo tion along the coast 'New York 1, " H World.

Cl'TLEB, New-Berne, V. nanatiiuher'a Jtebuke. Postmaster GeneralJohn Wanamaker ia given to illustrating his conversation with the pointed stories. Once he re buked some of his Sunday-Bchool boys for laughing at a deaf boy's mistake in answering misuuderatood questions, aud related this story : "Now, little boys, it is not right to laugh or make sport of affliction. I knew of a deaf man once who was dis posed to bo parsimonious. He was fond of isociety and a contained bachelor. He gave a banquet to some young ladies and yonng gentlemen, the elite of tho city. For convenience I will call the bachelor Brown. When the ban quet was nearly over one of the boldest of the young men arose to toast Mr. Brown. The latter stood up, all smiles, but we could not hear a word that waa spoken. He only knew it was about him that the toast was being said. Tho young scapegoat said : " 'Here is to you, you old miser. Brown. You are no better than a tramp and it is suspected that you make your money dishonestly. My wish is that you may get your just de serts yet and land in the penitentiary.' "The deaf Mr. Brown smiled, raised his glass to his lips, and said: 'The same to von.'" The Kobber, Traveler, and Mandarin: One time as a Peasant was Traveling along the Highway, he Encountered a Robber who had been lying in Ambuah. When a Demand was Made for his mon ey he Wept and lamented and Besought the Bobber to at least spare him half, "Come down with Every Stiver or off comes the top of yonr Head !" ahouted the Bobber; and he left the Feasant not one Copper Coin. An hour later, as the Robber was tak ing things Easy along the Road, he was met by a Mandarin and Escort, and the big man ordered that he be Seized and Searohed. When his cash was brought to light the Mandarin exclaimed: "All I he has too much money for an honest man 1 Take it away from him and give him sixty strokes of the Bam boo!" , Next day the sore and limping Robber again encountered the Peasant, and he at once fell upon him in Anger, cry ing out: "Ah, if you had not yielded up your cash to me I should not have been Barn booed 1 "And if I had not yielded yon would have cut my Throat I" replied the Peas ant.
