Vrjiuuchild Ih never washed until he attain the
ijC ol woven yoarnj nd, for the tind year of hi
Jilc, a piece of arlie (In the ease of iirirl, oneor
Iwo coins) is tied upon his ht.ud to preserve him
from the evil eye. As soon as he Is able to work,
pe is surrounded by superstitions which he is
l)Kcd to observe: if ho letches water, ho must
throw away Bomo of it: if ho briiur flour from
lhe mill, he must burn incense under it; in short,
he cannot take a step without coming in contact
With a superstition or an adet (custom), which,
f not respected, will avenpe itself on him, and,
without counting the spirits who lie in wait for
liiuj in the forest or at the fountain, his life is
filled with fenrs which go far to compensate for
Us great enjoyments of eating, driuklug, and
jumping..
When a young man wishes to marry, he speaks
to Ilia ' parents, who arrange tlio matter with
those of the lady chosen, and swaty are sent to
propose tn due form; tne amount 01 the corlmillc
j settled, as well as that of the baseh paraai, or
head money presented by tho suitor to the
jnothcr of Ids Intended, nnd then the god1, or
pctrothal, takes place. This is a ceremony of
great interest to all .Bulgarians, who have the
jamc tastes ns those commemorated in the sons
bout their great heroes, of which the constant
t horns is: .
I "Pak Jerte I plje."
J "Aud he cuts und drinks."
i The gody is usually held at the house of the
girl's parents, where" the elder guests sit around
I cloth spread on tho lloor nnd covered with
parlous dishes all strongly flavored with garlic,
Rhilc the wine jug circulates freely; in unotlior
room tho young people indulge in a similar re
past, and afterwards dance outside the house,
he girls singing songs at intervals. The young
han then brings in his presents, which consist of
rarious articles of feminine clothing, several
Salrs of slippers, bracelets, car-rings, a head
press, and necklace of gold or silver coins, and a
diver girdle; the value of these offerings is dis
Misscd by the fattier of the girl, nnd a fresh
bargain ensues, the suitor adding coin by coin to
he necklace till his future father-in-law is satis
led, and, when this result, is attained, all the
ncry is placed in a teknen, a wooden disli used
or making bread aud for a cradle. Then all the
niests set to work again at the banquet till day
light dawns upon tho many tipsy nnd the very
: ..1 -Ti. . -t . .. i i .

n all the presents of her fiance, and is cousukred
fs engaged.
This betrothal is in no way a religious ccre
jnony, nnd leaves it open to cither party to break
(off the engagement, but such n rupture seldom
ioecurs; the marriage never takes place within
px months of the gody, and is often delayed for
fwo or even throe years.
With some rare exceptions, these arrange
ments are by no means love matches: the young
man wishes to establish himself as head of a
household, and chooses a wife as he would a
yoke of buffaloes, looking upon her as a ma
L'hiuc for labor and the probable mother of sous
fho .will in time be able to work for him, and
kvhom he can beat, as his father beat him, until
he became too strong to permit it; for a Bul
garian son, when he grows up, makes no scru
fale of returning with interest the blows re-
clvcd from his lather. Thus the bride is
hosen, not for tho beauty of her more or less
Kalmuck features, but for the muscular strength
Which will render her valuable as a beast of
lurden.
Sometimes you may meet with a Bulgarian
Lindoro who translates his passion into the
knusic of the Gaida, or courts some stalwart Ho-
tina by playfully throwing lumps of mud at her
s thev meet at the fountain, or who buys an
normous pair of boots aud (.purs to attract the
ttention of his beloved, and proves tho strength
if his affection by treading upon her toes.
But Lindoro here, like the true Lindoro
verywhere, is poor, and perhaps seeks, by a
Uninterested love, to attract iuto his own purse
lew of tho zccciiini wnien no needs; at any
ate, It is no blasphemy to doubt tho purity of
lus motives in a country wnere a poweriuiiy
built wife is a good investment, iustead of being
kn expensive luxury.
I nn m.ii-riurr f Q j'Y ft7 l la nrflnnrprt trtl nv t in
ridegroom's Installation in his new house, and
he purchase of various domestic animals, espe
cially a pair of oxen or buffaloes, without tho
Possession of which tho mutch would bo consi-
ered a very poor one for the lady, if not en
trely out of the question; when all is ready, he
leiwis hlrt narents or his swatv to announce that
le wudics the ceremony to take place in two or
three weeks.
During the week preceding the marriage,
khich is always celebrated on a Sunday, the
parents of the bride nnd bridegroom prepare tho
uruitnre. etc., of tne new vivnane, tne girls or
he village dauco before tho house of the bride,
fe
nd the youths pav lue same compliment to
e bridegroom. On the Friday beloro the mur-
iage, the presents, nung n a cora, are exhi
bited in the- bride s house, and she herself has
ber hair plaited into innumerable minute tresses;
hen she takes, lor me nrxi ana last ume m ner
ft fe. a complete bath. Horrible as this state-
Lieut seems, it is the literal truth. Till the u"e
6eveuivears a child must not be touched with
hater, aud. although, after that period, tho face,
hands, and feet may be washed, the cleansing
1 the whole boay wouia ue cnoic gunan, a great
iu. aud is nevrr practised by either malo or
'cniule Bulgarians, with the solitary exception
UienUoued.
On the eventful , Sunday, when tho papas
Ire rendy. and ceremony takes place iu tho
rhurch. if there be one, or otherwise in tha
yridegroom s house, and after the marriage tho
happv couple are Jed in procession to the man-
lion of tlio bride's father, where the young girls
Banco, corn is sprinkled over the husbaud and
L-ifo, aud tho latter, her face covered with a veil
r of ten scarlet'), kisses the hands of all the married
Women of the village, receiving in return a fig
rom each of them.
Then all tho usual feasting goes on, and all tho
uests drink more than is good for them, and
ia iinirrud counlo are shnt up lu their own
ouse for a week, during wiucu umo iuey may
keitlior go out nor receive visits.

Uis dance, which is called in Russian bitchok, is

At tfi ..ml of every life, whether one of hurd-
Vuip t"d labor, like tho Turks, or feasting aud
Idling, like the Bulgarians, Conies death; but
just as tho Utter considers baptism not as the
admission of tho infant into the Church of
Christ, but as a mere sprinkling with water,
for which . the papas receives so much, so he
looks upon death ns the discharge of a more
animal function. '
, When he is given over by the witch, he pre
pares for tho passage from life to an unknown
world with a namj froid strongly resembling
courage, but which is merely tho result of a
fatalism arising from apathy. Ho bargains with
the papas as to the price of his burial, orders the
mortuary feasts, and, in short, prepares himself
very quietly to repose in tho grave which is
already dug for him. During all this time the
room is filled with women, shrieking nnd groan
ing In a manner sufllcicnt almost to kill a healthy
man.
At the moment of death, all pots, kettles, and
other utensils me turned upside down, in order
to prevent the soul of tho departed taking refuge
in ono of thorn, and therefore commeucing a
system of annoyance against tlio family, candles
or tapers arc lit around the body; and tho head
is dressed with flowers; a great eikon (picture
of a saint) Is placed upon tho breast, the body is
dollied in its best clothes, or in some specially
made for the purpose, and a pair of Blippcrs.
w hile all tho members of the facaily run outsido
and scream a lamentation, which is generally
Hiur mis iasiuon:
"ti 1 Tanaz! Hoc! Hoze!
Who will cut wood for us now?
(Shrieks aud howls.)
"Who will kill the sheep,
Or who will take care of the poor buffaloes?
(fSlirieks aud howls.)
"Who will carry the corn to the mill?
W iio Will beat us as you used to do,
Oil, Taimz !
(.shrieks and howls.)''
Five minutes afterwards an araba. with a
couple of oxen or buffaloes, is brought rouud,
containing a ladder, on which tho corpse is
placed without either shroud or collln; but only
iwo men accompany it, ono to drive, the other
to act as sexton; arrived at tho cemetery, tho
bodyis thrown iuto the grave, a few spadefuls
ot earth thrown upon it, perhaps a stone is
placed, nnd all is over. No burial service is
ever said, for although a minimum sum of forty
piasters must uo paw to ino papas ior every
burial, he never appears, nor. In any way otli-
iates; it the family choose to have masses said
for the soul of J the dead, they must make a new
bargain, but iu the couutry it is not much the
fashion.
The same evening there is a great death-feast
of relations and friends iu the house of mourn
ing, which. is repented in ten days, nud again ut
the expiration of one mouth, three months, six
months, a year, nnd three years; these are called
in Bulgarian potninki, commemorations. If the
dead man leaves a widow, she goes t the grave
every morning for forty days, and throws water
over it, so mat ne may not die ol thirst. ' Be
sides the jioniinki, the Bulgarians hold a feast in
the cemetery on Palm Sunday, and after much
eating and drinking, leave the remains upon the
graves of their friends, who, they are persuaded,
will eat them during the night; on taster Monday
an Easter egg is placed on each grave.
1 he liuigarian mourning, which i worn only
by women, consists iu wearing every article of
telothing inside out; as with us, it varies in dura'
ion according to the consanguinity ot the rehv
tion lost; that of a widow is fixed at one year.
Appiewn s journal.
-A correspondent of the Cologne Gazette in
the south of France writes as follows about the
French provincial press: "A striking illustra
tion of the mental stagnation of French pro
vincial life is afforded by the wealthy commercial
town oi cctte, which, with 30.000 inhabitants.
has not a single periodical newspaper, either
political or literary, nor even an advertisement
sheet, but is satisfied with a lithographed list of
the quotations on tlio exchange, iu the depart
ment of the llerault, which contains 400,000 in
habitants, the only representatives of" the politi
cal press are two newspapers appearing at Mout
pellier, the capital. Of these one is the organ
of the Government, the other that of the opposi
tion. Botli are mere echoes of the Parisian
newspapers, utterly destitute of original views,
and lull of that washy Paris gossip which forms
the chief attraction of the French proviueial
press. ... As for tlio two non-political
papers of Montpellier, Is, Lapin aud Iai 1'apilton,
they are unspeakably silly aud trivial."
