Milton’ vocabulary comprised about 8,000

Mr. Judah P. Benjamin’s friends are 
having his likeness engraved, aud among the 
subscribers are Lord Cairns, Lord O'llagan, 
Lord Watson, Mr. Justice Denman, Mr. Baron

distinguished persous. 
Isabella became Queen of Spain on Sep¬ 
tember^!!, 1833. She fled from that throne 
and tw>k refuge in France on September 39, 
1808. And her son, King Alfonso, was 
hooted at by a mob in the streets of Paris on 
September 39, 1.883, There’s encouragement 
for people who believe in omens aud fatal 
days. 
Okn, Flores and Gen. Poceros are to sur¬ 
vey aud colonize the public lauds of Tamauli- 
pas. Of the lands surveyed they will get a 
third. In the first six years they must coion- 
ize 300 families, giving each family ten years’ 
credit on their lauds. The company may lend 
the colonists the $30 passage money required 
by the Mexican Transatlantic Company. 
“John Bright,” says a Brahmin visitor to 
England, “eats his breakfast like a lion, and 
digests it, too; but he doesn’t drink. He is a 
broad, middle-sized man, with great, soft 
hands and an enormous appetite. 1 haveseen 
1 dm finish off the-ph-utiful morning meal with 
half a jug of milk and a good lump of sugar, 
which he puts into his mouth somewhat sur¬ 
reptitiously.” 
In secluded parts ol’ Mount Olivet Cem¬ 
etery, Washington, but far upart, are the 
graves of Mary E. Surratt and Wirz, the 
keeper of the Andersonviile prison pen. 
Wirz is buried under a tall hickory tree, 
in which squirrels chatter aud gambol. Tall, 
mnk weeds and uu kempt grass surround the 
spot, aud the simple word “ Wirz” on a small 
block of marble at the head of the grave is 
the only thuig to denote his rustiug place. 
Mrs. Surratt's grave is equally obscure. A 
small, plain headstone has simply the name, 
“Mrs. Mary E. Surratt.”
