Further testimony was heard yesterday in the matter of the petition of Edwin Parsons, of Now York) to restrain the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad receivers from paying interest on the floating debt in excess of the earnings of the col lateral pledged therefor. Mr. Beauveau Borie's continued absence in the West prevented Mr. Dallas, the master appointed by the court, from obtaining the testimony expected from him, and Mr. D.

Jones, comptroller to the Reading receivers, was the first witness. He was asked regarding the copy of the account of H. Borie with the receivers, which was offered in evidence. "Does that account give tho commission paid to C. U.

Borie for the purchase of certain general mortgage scrip for the Reading Company?" asked lawyer Francis M. Lewis, representing the general mortgage interests.

Looking up irom the document ana aauressing Counselor Kaercher, of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company, Lawyer Lewis inquired: nat aooui me item orcommissionsT it is noi set out in the account" "I know nothing about it then; I supposed that the account would show it." Returning to Comptroller Jones Mr. Lewis said: "Do you know whether a commission was paid C.

II. Borie for makiuc the purchase?" Yes. A commission of one-quarter ol one per cent. "What is the commission usually paid?" "I believe one-quarter is usual." "Are vou sure?" "Well, one-quarter or one-eighth of one per cent" "Ah! that a great difference an important dif ference." "Was there a standing account between C. II.

Borie and tho receivers?" "Yes; a running account extending from Febni' ary to November. 1883." 'Now, as a matter fact, Mr. Jones," continued Lawyer Lewis, returning to the old subject, "can vou tell us for a certainty what amount of cem. mission was paid C. 11.

Borie; was it one-quarter or one-eighth of one per cenu7" "1 can say exactly which, Dut tne atcount win probably telL" "Can you tell us, then, what interest C. II. Borie got for carrying the scrip?" "Six per cent." "That will do." Lawyer Lewis then took posses sion of the account and said he would examine lb The next hearing will take place on July 7. General Passenger Agents' Meeting.

Social Position of Musicians. If ever there was a proof that the old days of musical servitude nave gone by it, was fur nished by Liszt's recent triumphal career through London.

The leaders of the aristoc' racy, from the Trince of Wales down, did homage to the great musician, who played for them or not as his caprice dictated. What a contrast to the days of M.07,art, when the Archbishop of Hal had the great musician of that time kicked down stairs and when Haydn was treated simply as a lower servant by the Esterhazys. In the last century it was not altogether unusual to find advertisements in the papers for servants who could, upon occa sion, take part in a string quartette. With Beethoven began tho assertion of the musician's higher caste; and that noble nature refused to bend, even In the slightest degree, to the aristocracy of wealth or birth, holding that the aristocracy of art made him their peer, and more. Liszt himself was the first to put the claim of the musician into words, When the Princess of Esterhazy a-iked him alter his return from a concert tour, if he had "done a good business, he severely retorted, "I am in art, madanie, not in business." It ii pre-eminently fitting that the -musi jinn who Hi st boldly asserted the high rank of the artist should be the musician of all the world most honored and acknowledged by the loaders of the fashionable world; yet the sharp contrast between the musician's caste seventy or eighty years ago and that of to-day should not be tost sight of, and all musicians of the better cliss should remember that the social advan'-e brings with It increased responsibilities as well as increased dignity.

uoslon Musical llirald. The Silver Lift. In the thirty years extending up from 1837. the production of silver in the United States was about 750,000,000, and the net Imports of silver into inaia amounted to $1,122,000,000. India has, therefore, absorbed 50 per cent, of the product or the Lnitea states.

In that period the production of silver in all quarters of the world was about so that India alone has absorbed e50.0O0,00O more than ail tne remainder of the world. At the same time, or at least in the fifteen years covered by minute statis tical records, the purchasing power of silver in India has increased, as it will buy 15 to 20 per cent more of the products of Indian labor, or of the labor itself, than in 1N70. The demand for silver, therefore, still exceeds the supply in that country. Nor is this surprising. Silver is the great medium of exchange among the people, who in the aggregate are very rich, inhabiting a country of inexhaustible fertility; and yet, if all the silver in the outside world were added to their present stock, and if it were all used as money they would have a per capita covering only a third to a half as large as the United States or France.

Ilut the principal consumption of silver in India is In works of art or in hoarding. Louisville Courier-Jourrtal. An Antique King. The papers are mentioning the finding in Lancaster, the other day by a man who was plowing of a funeral ring inscribed "Kir William Pepperell, Baronet, July 9, 1759, aged 63 years." It is supposed to have been given to Col. Samuel or Col.

Abijah Wil-lard or some other friend of Peppered who lived at Lancaster. Both the Willards and and other Lancaster men served under Pepperell when he won his baronetcy in the ever-memorable expedition against Louisburg in 1745. which first showed the oolonisHtbat they were able to carry on a war ngln-tt the French on their own hook. It is reoned that the ring must have lain in the gro ind for more than one hundred years, as the Willards became Tories and left the country, as did also Sir William's nephew and heir, thus losing all the property which he Inherited. One of the curious things about the baronet was that he was the youngest ot a family of nineteen children, the offspring of a poor Maine fisherman.

How "Curfew" was Thought Out and Written. Of the hundreds of residents of the city of San Antonio, only a few who frequently meet a tall, slender lady, witn raven brown eyes and hair, and with a singular attractive ness in her face, know that she 18 Mrs. itose Hartwick Thorpe, whose famous poem, "Curfew SI list not King To-night," has given her a reputation in both hemispheres. How, at the age of sixteen years, the young country girl was led to write the poem, now so widely known, is thus narrated, as furnished by her personally for this publication: a lie poem was suggested to me oy tne read ing of a story, 'Love and Loyalty in April, 1HG7. I was then a plain country school-girl, not vet seventeen, residing with my parents at Litchfield, and under the pretext of working out mathematical problems, witn my arithmetic before me, I wrote the poem rough ly on my slate.

I was forced to carry on my literary work under these difficulties because of the opinion of my parents, that my time could be better employed than in 'idle dreams and useless I wrote the first copy on my slate between four and six o'clock in the afternoon, but much time has since been spent in correcting and revising it. I had no thought that I would ever be able to write anything; worthy of public notice. lhe noem was rst nub lstiea in tne uetroit Commercial Adnertwr the fall of 1H70. The editor, upon receipt of my manuscript, at once wrote me a lengthy letter of congratulation and praise, in which he predicted the popularity for tlie versos which they have stnee received. I had no literary friends, not even a literary acquaintance at that time, and did not know the simplest requirements for preparing my manuscript for publication." The poem at once attracted popular attention, and bestowed upon its young author a reputation which each, succeeding year has enlarged.

Although it has been published In innumerable forms and different books and collections, and has been translated into the French, German and other languages, the poem ha never brought its author any financial remuneration, as Is too often the case. "It raised me," writ 's Sirs. Thorpe, "from a shy, obscure, couutry gill into public notice, and brings to my side yearly hosts of new and delightful friends. Wherever I go my friends are there before me, and the poem, which I gave to the public with no 'right' reserved, while it has made a fortune for others and dropped golden coins in other pockets, has reserved for its author admiring friends." Mrs. Thorpe spends her summers in her native climate ot Michigan, where she yearly recuperates from the effects of a Texan winter.

The author is thirty-six years of age, is happily married, and is enabled to quietly enjoy the respect and love of her neighbors and friends, while her literary admirers are legion. The New Sweetener. The news that a new substance has been discovered which Is 230 times sweeter than sugar, threatens to effect a domestic revolution. We may expect that, ere long, sugar basins will disappear, and that in their place tiny sliver cups of the size of acorns containing homoeopathic globules will come into fashion. To schoolboys the change will be a matter cf rejoicing.

The presence ot a bullseye is apt to make itself known by bulging the cheek, and it interferes with clear and rapid articulation if its happy possessor is suddenly questioned. A globule, however, the 230th part of its size, could be conveyed unseen to the mouth and there enjoyed without fear of detection. The fact that the new substance, the name of which is saccharin, is a product of coal tar, i in these days no drawback to its general adoption from the same source we draw many of our essences, to say nothing of coloring matters. Moreover, tar is a product of coal.whieb. is in itself a product of wood.

There is no reason, therefore, why it should be more objectionable than sugar derived directly from the cane. The new substance is already coming largely into use In the hospitals of Berlin, as it appears that it can oe used, in some ailments, where cane sugar woujd be injurious. At present its price is very much higher than that of sugar, bi.t In proportion to its sweetness it is even now cheaper, and we may be sure that new methods of production, which will enable It to cope favorabjy with cane sugar, will soon be discovered.
