A letter dated Kioto, Japan, says We
are now in the heart of Japan. Thi*
citv was for many oeuturiea the mikado's
capital, and until ten years ago, when
(he overthrow of the shosuu left the
•apital of that ruler de facto open, its
greater advantages led the mikado and
liis cabinet to occupy it. This old capi
ta], at one time with a papulation said
o have been 2,000,000, is now reduced
to 150,000. 1 arose early, and was glad
t find a clear morning. I walked out
at a side door of the inn. and found inv
*e!f in one of the approaches to a Shinto
temple. I was almost under one of the
granite tonii, or monuments. This one
- alnwit sixty feet high, and four atone
lanterns at the ooniers of the square
iin> of great sixe, and oider than any 1
have yet seen. Jnat a* the suu was ris
ing above the eastern hill, 1 watched the
men and women as they came in front of
the open temple dixir, and threw their
offerings in. Then clapping their hands
they fold t-liem, bow the head in devia
tion, aud go away to the duties of the
day. For a moment the temple was
deserted, and a man came out with his
lace ttuueil full to the rising sun—the
'couple fao-d the south—he went through
the same devotional exormaes that 1 had
■n-t seen, but he rcuuuued louger, Ixiwal
with hi- head to the ground, and exinlw
itivi more fervor.
We have visuted several temples situ
ied ou the hillsides, ou the east side of
the plain on which the city la spread out,
rhe oldest and largest is known a* the
Chimin, and Klouga to the Joudo sect.
It ta very large, ineasurttig in frout over
•>OO feet. This sect never paint their
temples, :uid this oue presents a dreary
aspect of weather-stained wood. Its age
is given as 270 year* only, and it occu
pies the aite of an older oue de*trv>ye,l
by fir\>. Stone >teps leal to the bell
t->wer, when- hang* the great bell, said
t ■ lie the largest iu Japan. It is sounded
. "ilv on the 12th and 2ftth of each mouth.

eleven inches in thickness. We saw au
other U-ll in aire little less near the site
of another temple, restiug ou grauite
-npivorts, on the ground, near w here it
tell The bridge les.liug to a mountain
temple is of great l>eauty. It has two
arches, aud each arch double; oue in
serted under the other, so that the i*as
-.ige* form circles. The whole, includ
ing the lalitra,le, is of cut granite. In
-trong contr.ist with their religious es
lab'ushmeuts is the architecture of the
k wn. The streets are narrow and nn
jwvevl, the houses small anil squalid,
and poverty is wntteo everywhere.
We have just returned trom a vtsit to
N'ara, oue of tlie old capitals of the em
pire, distant about thirty-six miles. We
drove at a brisk trot for an hour In-Iort"
;i break occurred iu the line at houses,
when we crossed a I ranch of the I'ji
nver, b\ a bridge about a thousand feet
'•<ug. We entered a long atre-t of what
was oace, a thousand year* ago, a great
city. Away u|. the slope of the hill it is
tvuered, wherever we went, with walls
ud pavements a* indestractible as the
1 ill itself. Granite stairs lead into the
wild forest, which now cover* the bite of
v -t temples of wood— broad avenues,
whose rocky paveuieut was worn smooth
b\ the feet of devout pilgrims befor.

Here was erected, 1,200 year* ago, th
largest bruoae figure the world has ever
known. It weighs 450 tons, and the

We went around it, but .wild torrn uo

Toko told me that it sa sixty feet froui
the seat of lota* leaves to the top of its

alysis of it gave 500 pounds of gold in

To-.lav we rode to Lake Bewa, distant
a boa* seven mile*, and our route lay
doug the great Tokaido. The road is
about twenty feet wide, well macadam
z. d, with the inevitable walled ditch on
either side. It is the if rent thoroughfare
iron; Osaka to Tukio, and from the lake
to Koto it was a continuous stream of
t ravel, many cattle, ami a few horses
■aden with good* of every description.
We entered the t"wu at the south end of
the lake, and were taken to a flight of
stone steps to climb to a temple that
overlooked the lake. We ascended them
found ourselves on the plateau excavated
t'i the side of the mountain, and turned
•look upon the largest lake in Japan.
It is sixty miles in length, but narrow
at the south end. It is surrounded by
rich alluvial lands. Our guide next led
us to *ee a bell, which, he told us, had
not been rung in twelve bnndred years,
and pointed to a small wooden bmlding
rt the head of a flight of wide stone
'tops. We looked in through the wooden
lars, well worn by curious visitors, and
w, well supported on a strong wooden
table, a boll about four feet high, with a
bad crack, which seemed to have been
•■aused by fire. It had on it a few plain
figures as ornaments. Our guide in
formed us that it was seventeen hundred
years o!.1, and that it had hung in an an
cient Shinto temple that once stood
where it now lies. For five hundred
rears its tones floated over the placid
lake, and called the people along its
shores to worship. Then came a catas
trophe, and twelve centuries have
jiassed.
An Visitor.
Some time ago a large ami excited
crowd of citizens rushed Pi oue of the
wfi.irves in New Orleans as if some cat
istr..phe had happened. No explosion
hid taken place, however, uo suicide or
ncrijental drowning bad occarred, but
the cause of the gathering was no less
fine of some interest An alligator—a
real, scaly, huge monster—had suddenly
ascended from the muddy depths of the
Mississippi, and, crawling upon the
wharf, coolly surveyed the animated
panorama of our great thoroughfare
lie was evidently a progressive alligator
gifted with an investigating mina, and
seemed to take great interest in the
signs of advanced civilization which
surrounded him. He basked lazily in
in the sun, and after aw hile became fa
miliarized enough with the scene to gain
confidence, anil to advance a little near
er to the levee. Just then, unfortunate
ly, some one saw him, and exelamed. in
h voice of terror, "An alligator !" Our
amphibious friend's nerves were dis
turbed by the cry, and making a right
s'bout-face, he started at a shape pace
for his native element. The people be
tween him and the river scattered in all
directions, while those lie hind attacked
him with stones and bludgeons. The
unfortunate visitor was knocked sense
less. A big colored man tied a rope
around his jaws and dragged him off,
grinning triumphantly at the thought of
what a fine pair of water-proof Ixiots he
would have made out of the hide. The
alligator was some ten feet long, and a
rather dangerous customer to meet alone
in a narrow path.
A Swarm of Vs.
The first American paper published
on the Pacific coast was the Califomian,
the first numl>er of which was issued at
Monterey in the fall of 1846. The types
aDd press once belonged to the Spanish |
authorities and were used to print their
public documents. Everything used
was in a state of dilapidation, but it
seemed to be of minor consideration as
soon as it was possible to put forth a
sheet containing letters, whether they
were legible or not. Instead of w's two
VT'S were used. In explanation of this
the following appeared :
"OUR ALPHABET— Our type is a
Spanish font picked up herein a cloister,
and has no W's (W's) in it, as there
is none in the Spanish alphabet. I have
sent to the Sandwich Islands for this
letter, in the meantime we mnst use
two Vs. Our paper at present is that
used for wrapping cigars ; in due time
we will have batter ; our
objecLis to establish a press in Cali-
and this in all probability we
shgptf be able to accomplish. The ab
#nce of my partner for the past three
months, and my duties as Alcalde here
have deprived our little paper of some j
f those attentions which I hope it will
hereafter reoerve. WALTRR COLTOR " j
A l,c|er Village In Cj press.
A traveler in I lie island of Oyprmw
thus dfv-erilx-* a leper village; One
j little el.imp of tree* on the plain two or
i three mihw wt-at of Niooaia next at
' tracted my attention. It WM the leper
! village, 1 wn* t>li. aud we noon came
MVIIM by the roadside a nort of impro
vised tent H white, ragged sheet,
j mounted on four scraggy sticks under
neath wliieh notne equally attenuated
l>s>kin. fellow mortals were huddled up.
i These were leper beggar*, pursuing
! their usual custom and only pastime by
! which they can obtain brood to prolong
j their miserable existence. They were
; nil Greeks, null a* we eloeely approached
we could Invar their |*>or, weak voiovve
begging for aome inouev. I UMMVI to
them all the piastres I hod, observing
at the same time a little ohihl a beau
tiful child dressed in a long white
wrapper, an.l standing on one ai.le of
the tent My Turk ha.l ri.hleu quickly
by, but 1 drew rem ami called the little
one to ne. Half-licsitatingly she came.
Her features were of that purely classic
mould for which the t'ypriotc*of to day
are not usually distinguished. She
might have Iteeu mistaken for a master
piece of rhidiaa, had it not lava for the
delicate pink tint which added life to
her fair complex IOU, the lnk of wonder
ami surprise with which she regarded
my appearance, and the sod, halt'-trem
bling expression of the small, curved
lijvs which parted to disclose her regular,
pearly teeth, thui it lie jioaaible that
she is a lepar, thought I. " What tio
you do here, ohihl?' 1 aaked. " Must
uot come uear to you," she replied
.juietly, in Greek "I am ill, and aliall
.lie some day." "So shall vre all," 1
said, tossing to hr the last bunch of
grapes from my saddledvags. A great
clamor arose among the weak voices iu
the teut when they saw the little child
eating gra|es, and all N-gg.-d and prayed
me to give thew sotue. But wheu 1
told them I had uo more there came
such a volley of tierce anathemas in the
uaat unsympathetic Greek that 1 never
can forget. 1 rode away, sickened ami
saddened at the sight 1 had witnessed;
and even now that awful sound ringing
m my ears ami the sad upturned face of
the little leper child at tiinea re
turn to my memory with a depressing"
influence.
Some of the native opinions about 1
leprosy and conjectures as to its cause
are carious. The leper children are in
variably beautiful. Sometimes the fatal
disease makes its apjiearauce in a child
of good family residing iu the city, and
it is at once sent o!T as an outcast to the
leper village. None of the men or wo
meu 1 saw by the roadside exhibited iu
their faces anything more than the ema
ciation .>f semi-starvation, but probably
their liiul>a or bodies were gradually
decaying, and truly "from hour to hour
they rot aa I rot," until life itself is cx
tiugu shed. Sometimea tliev linger
many years. Sometimes the fatal spots
do uot appear nutil they are thirty or
forty years of age, aud then there is uo
delay; l>e the infected one the father or
mother of a respectable family, or a be
loved member of it, they have to hear
the city gates close tiehiud them forever
and go forth as exiles to the village to
await their slow, terrible death. The
consequence is there are people of all
.mate* and denominations iu these mys
terious settlements, and they have their
priests, pashas, cod jas and hadjia, who
officiate in their respective callings. The
common scourge .iocs uot make these
people entirely united, as one would
suppose. They have their dissensions
and their cliques; these who depend
upou their former ciiy friend* for their
support are very exclusive; those who
have no friends are compelled to beg by
the way as we have seen.
Cvmbati renews of Bird*.
A parr of cat-bir.ls had their nest and
young in a currant-hedge of the garden
belonging to a farm-house where I was
lodging one spring, and I used to amuse
myself by exciting the anger of the
mother-bird. To do this I had only to
hang a bit of red cloth near her nest m
her absence, and await the resnlt. No
sooner would she return than such a
twittering, and squeaking, end scolding,
would begin as only a cat-bird could
generate, and when she found out that
there was "no fight '* in the rag, she
would eye me sitting at \py window, and
mew triumphantly, as if she well knew
who it was bad thus troubled her equa
nimity. A war of words—or, rather, a
war of notes—is a thing of frequent oc
currence between a cat-bird and the
common brown thrush. Early in the
morning through the mouth of May
they may lie heard screaming their re
spective medleys at the extreme pitch of
their voices from neighboring tree*,
each songster maliciously lient on drown
ing the others' voice. The common
baru-yard cock is given to a like ambi
tion in the matter of " crowing down "
all oomjietitors. Speaking of the brown
thrush reminds me that I ought to
record here A very singular combat,
witnessed by myself and brother, be
t ween one of these gay singers and a bine
jay i what bird is not compelled to fight
the latter?), and in which the jay was
finally discomfited and Waten. We
were lying iu the shade of a wide
spreading wild-plum tree on the edge of
a little glade. Near ns was a clnmp of
sugar-haw bashes, in one of which we
had discovered a brown thrush's uest.
The bird was incubating. A bine-jay,
flitting abont on mischief intent, as, in
fact, a blue-jay always is, happened to
spv her, and immediately attacked her,
driving her for refnge into the thick,
thorny foliage above the nest. This
seemed an easy turn for the jay, which
at once prepared to have a feast of the
eggs. But uo sooner had it perched on
the nm of the nest than the thrush, with
a savage squall, plunged down from its
hiding-place, ana struck it a heavy blow
on the bark. The jay retreated in dis
order, but warily returned again when
all seemed still." With infinite caution
in every movement, it hopped from twig
to twig, turning'its crested head this
wav and that, till it reached the nest.
Again, with a shrill scream, the thrush
pounced from its hiding-place, using its
long, sharp beak for a sword to stab the
jav's exjiosed and defenseless back.
Again and again the would-be robber
fled and returned, each time to get
ronarher usage; and, finally, as if nt
terly outdone, with rapidly repeated
cries of "De-jay I de-jay! de-jay!" it
flitted away into the depths of the
woods, to coma no more.— Ajtplrfmi't

There is a young man in New York
who writes lectures for women, adapts
plays for stars, writes advertising
pamphlets for mercantile and drag
stores, writes poetical advertisements,
! blood and thunder stories and dime
novels. He has a regular scale of prices,
undertakes his work in a most job-like
manner and has reduced the art of worda
to the most practical principles. His
scale of prices for his work is very sys
tematic and very .reasonable. He
charges SIOO for a lecture, SSO for an
art or n play, from SSO to SIOO for n
pamphlet, according to its length ; from
glO to $25 for a circular, from $25 to
SIOO for a poem advertisement, accord
ing to th number of poems in the lot;
from $8 to $lO a column for a news
paper story, and from SSO to $250 for a
novel, according to its length. This
j Bohemiau is not only clever but con
scientious, and he always complies with
all the terms of his contract. He has
no desire to l>e known as an author at
all. He works, as he says, "for cash,
not credit." If he does not get his
money he makes a stir till he gets it,
but be never violates his agreements.
All his works are supposed to be written
by others. That is to say, all bnt his
advertising pamphlets and circulars.
His lectures have been delivered by
others, but he never for a moment has
betrayed their real authorship, and, on
several occasions, it is said, he has flatly
denied knowing anything whatever
about his own productions and has de
\ liberately testified that they were writ

him, as his customers depend absolute

IX A HEX OF RATTLESNAKE*.
The Trrrlbl* Uirsiarr •( a Brbaal Ulrl la

A voung lady in this .nty, says the
Healing i l'a.) Aiij/fc, has received the
following letter (roiu her friend who is
at boarding-school, giving a thrilling
account of her adventure with a huge
rattlesnake;
LH:vu MA.HIIK Three wi*>ks ago Ves
ter, lay atteruoon two voting ladies ln>-
sides myself, who ha.\ gone out in a
walking party with one of the teachers
at the sehtHil iu this place, strolled off
from the rest of the party, and, l.vaing
our way, were unable for aome time to
toll whore we were, as the wood* and
underwood were so thick that the fur
ther we peuetrat.sl it the more difficult
our passage leoanie. We wandered to
and fro, and for a long time, until al
ru.ist overcome with fatigue, when we
sat down on a huge boulder to recover
our I* ist strength. leHikiug at our
watches we found that we had been on
the mountain nearly six hours, and felt
hungry, distressed and tired. It was
a I Hint five o'clock in the afternoon, and
twilight was fast approach lug. "lili,
but for something to eat," mv com
panion said, " ami then we could strug
gle on aud trv to flud the a'linnl again."
She appeared to la* the picture of dee
pair. We were sitting some feet alnivo
the ground alongside of a huge ■ • tk trie,
and presently 1 felt something moving
ou my neck. 1 placed mv hand to mv
neck to remove it, when, horrible to re
late, 1 grasped something touud and
soft, which hissed like an adder. 1 tried
to pull it from my mvk, but it wriggled
and squirmed, and my companion, see
ing the monster ou my body, shrieked
and almost fainted. Jiint at that mo
ment the head made a dart at my hrc*t,
with mouth wide ojieu aud tongue clou
gated, and hissing a death-like and hor
rible sound. My left hand was al>out
six inches from its Lead, and. in order
to prevent lieiug bitten, I gra|>ed it
right behind the eves Willi luy right
hand. Holding it in this way for sev
eral seconds, my com|auion shrieked to
me to throw the snake from me. I tried
to do so, but was pow erlosa, being, us it
seemed to me, transfixed or charmed to
. the jKt by the horrid eyes of the mon
ster. I trnxl to talk, but my jaws would
u>t open, aud my tongue appeared stiff.
T felt the cold sweat trickling down my
back, and large drop* of perspiration
SUHSI out on ijy forehead. My fa-e was
as white as the driven snow, and 1 could
neither move nor talk, but accrued to be
as stiff as a It makes me ahn.lder,
as 1 write, to think of the stare of the
reptile.
Annie, my companion, seeing my dan
gerous situation, screamed for help.
She seemed to have l>een bereft of rea
son, for instead of coming to my assist
ance she started to run away. Trying
to turn my head to see whither she had
gone, the eye* of the snake were also
directed in the direction in which Annie
was shrieking. From that moment the
snake's spell ou me was broken, aud
with all my might 1 hurled it from rue.
No sooner had the snake lauded ou the
ground than 1 ran with the fleetuees of
a deer, fearing that it would overtake
me. Judge of my feelings w-heu, al
most out of breath and ready to sink
down to the earth from sheer exhaustion,
I turned around aud fouud a snake with
three others several paces from me, in
hot pursuit. I rcmemWrcd that snakes
were afraid of anything red. Fortunate
ly having on a red skirt, I immediately
cxjaawxl it to the reptiles' view, and they
at once stopped the pursuit. I advanced
toward them, shaking my red skirt, and
they retreated. I gathetixl up stones
and threw at them and kilhxl the largeet
one, and the other* eta-aped through the
rocks. Ju* at this moment a deputa
tion from the school, who had lieen iu
search of us, came up. The large snake
that hail coiled itself around my neck
was found by the escort, aud it mea
sure* nine feet aud four iuclies.
Herror> of Viberian (Julrkllier Sines.
Au English paper savs : The exiles
who live in the Siberian mines are con
victs ot the worst type and political of
fenders of the best. The murderer for
his villainy, the intelligent Polish relnd
for his patriotism, are deemed equally
worthy of the punishnieut of slow death.
They never see the light of .lay, but
work and sleep all the year round iu the
depths of the earth, extracting silver or
quicksilver under the eyes of taskmasters
who have orders not to spare them. Iron
gates, guarded by sentries, dose to the
lodes, or streets, at the bottom of the
shafts, and the miners are railed off from
one another in gangs of twenty. They
sleep within recesses hewn out of the
rucks—very kenuels—into which they
creep on all-fours. Prince J.wepli Lubo
mitski, who was authorized to visit one
of the mines of tha Oural at a time wheu
it was not suspected he would ever pub
lish au account of hiH exploration in
French, has given an appalling account
of what he saw. Convicts racked with
joint-pains which quicksilver produce* ;
men whose hair and eyebrows iia.l drop
lied off, uud who were gaunt as skeletons
were kept to hard labor tinder the laah.
They have only two holidays a vear,
Christmas and Easter; and all other days,
Sundays included, they must toil until
exhausted nature robs them of the uaeof
their limbs, when they are hauled up to
die in the infirmary.
Five years in the quicksilver pits are
enough to turn a man of thirty into an
apparent sexaggenarian, but some have
been known to struggle on for ten years.
N"o man who has served in the mines is
ever allowed to return home ; the most
he can obtain in the way of grace is leave
to come np and work in tlis gangs, and
it is the promise of this favor as a reward
for industry which operates even more
than the lush to maintain discipline.
Women are employed in the mines as
sifters, and pet no licttcr treatment than
the men. Polish ladies by the dozen
have been sent down to rot and die, while
the St Petersburg journals were declar
ing that they were living as free colonists:
and, more recently, ladies connected
with Nihilist conspiracies hnve been con
signed to the mines in pursuance of a
sentence of hard lalior. It must always
be understood that a sentence of Siberian
hard latsir means death. The Russian
Government well knows that to live for
years in the atrocions tortures of the
miues is humanly impossible, and, con
sequently, the use of a euphemism to
replace the term capital punishment is
merely of a piece with the hypocrisy of
all official statements in Russia. Once a
week a poj>e, himself an exile, goes down
into the mines to liear the consolations
ot religion, under the form of a sermon,
enjoining patience.
Honey.Bec and Music
It lias been asserted that iusectM do
not hear, upon no better foundation
than that entomologists have been some
what at lost to find organs which corres
pond to ears in other and larger animals,
The following from the London Sews,
has u direct bearing upon the subjuct
and seems to point to an affirmative an
swer to the question.
The question whether tiec* linve the
power of hearing is a mooted one
among naturalists. Sir John Lnbbock
has tried experiments with his bees in
order to elucidate the matter. Thus he
lias played the violin close to his bea,
he has tried a dog whistle, a shrill pipe,
a tuning fork and shouting, bnt no
noise seemed to disturb them in the least.
Nevertheless, a canons occurrence took
place a few days since at Windsor. Col.
Stewart, commanding officer Second
Life Guards, reports that a few days
since, when the regiment was returning
down the Long Walk from a field day, a
swarm of bees attracted, by the music,
followed the regiment into barracks,
flying aliout over the heads of the band.
On arriving at the barrack-yard the band
formed up to plav the regiment into
barracks; the bees followed their exam-
Cle, formed up also and settled on a
ranch of a tree over the heads of the
bandsmen. They were at once taken
prisoners by the corporal of the guard,
and are now hived in the barrack yard.
The distance over which the bees fol
, lowed the band was more than a mile.
We have heard of spelling bees, but
these are musical bees with a vengeance.
It is a common practice in the country
j to collect been by means of rattling a
' warming pan with a piece of iron, or
shaking a stone in a tin kittle, and the
idea that bees will follow sounds is as
old as Virgil.— Rural New Yorker.

prrpami to Jrfruil theinaelvna with
vigor, but Nmi u r counseled them to do
nothing of the aort, but t| trust to him
alone, and hut mediation witii Tinumr.
The ptsjple were doubtful of hissuooesa,
but they yielded. before proceeding
to tlie camp of the Ixvuegcr, Nasur. w!io
knew it was useless t<> approach the
great chief without a present, consid
ered wlint gift was likely to be moat ac
ceptable. He resolved it should tie
fruit, but he hesitated tietweuu tigs and
quinces.
"I will oonault with my wife," aaid
Xasttr-od l>eeii, and he accordingly did
so.
The lady advised him to take quinces,
a* the larger fruit.
" Very good," aaid Nastir ; " that be
ing votir opinion, 1 will take figs."
\Vheii he reached the foot of the throne
of Tamerlane, he auiioumcod himself as
tin ambassador from the tslcagnered
citizens, and presents!, as an offering
of their homage, his trumpery takct of
tigs. The chief burst into rage, and
ordered them to be flung at the head of
the representative of the jeople of Jengi-
Seheher. The courtiers pelted him with
right good will ; uud each time tie was
struck, Nasnr, who stsd patient and
immovable, gently exclaimed :
"Now, Allah be praised!" or, "Oh,
the Prophet t> thauked!" or, "Oh,
■ .ulmirubie ! how can 1 lie sufficiently
grateful V
"What Jost thou mean, fellow?"
asked Timotir ; " we jielt von with tigs,
and you seem to enjoy it."
" Ay, truly, great sir," replied Kasur;
" I gratefully enjoy the consequence of
my own wit, Mv wife counseled me to
1 bring quinces, hut I chose to bring
j figs ; and well that 1 did, for with figs
von have only bruised me, but had I
brought quinces you would have beaten
I my brains out"
t "The stern conqueror laughed aloud,
, and declared that, for the sake of one
fool lie would spare all the fools >n the
city, male and female, them and their
property.
" Then," cried Xasur, " the entire
population is safe !" and he ran home
ward to communicate the joyful intelli
gence.
l'lhliiii Notes.
Ijtrgc hoop earring* are again worn.
Aiaatian tiowm are aeeti on the newest
nnportixl bonnets.
Pale bine brocaded silks are noxl for
full-ilrewi bonnet*.
Cnckisi feathers, tijijxsl with jet, are
handsome for round lints.
Shaggy beaver hate arc moat liked in
the Gainaborough shape.
Marble paper anil envelopes are the
lateet novelty in stationery.
Evening bonnet* are all white witli a
border of white ostrich plumes.
Among new pieee-tnminings are stani|>-
ed velvet and tinsel galoous.
Embossed velvets are greatly used in
combination with silk or satin.
Exquisite card-holders the shape
of a shell held by a pretty little finger.
Point lace vests, with Eoriis XTII.
onflTs, are the now extravagances for full
dress.
Sew collars and cuffs have colored
embroidery in pale tints, with scalloped
edge.
New handkerchiefs have the liorder in
large scallops, finished with small scal
lops in colors.
Favorite searf-pins Mro made of two
snakes twined together, and having bright,
enameled scales.
A New York bride's extravagance was
shown in point lace gloves and point lace
covering for her shoes.
Habit basques, shaped like gentlemcns
frock coats, are among the fresh inipor
tations for ladies' wear,
Htamling collars and narrow cuffs are
haul to alsilish; they still continue to be
favorites with mnny ladies.
The fashionable petticoat of the season
is perfectly flat in front and on the sides,
and with fulness behind not beginning
higher up than below the lower edge of
the corset. It should only reach to the
knee, and the flounces are buttoned on
to it, more or less long according to the
driss to be worn. The fan shape at the
buck innst be maintained.
nroad-Chrotrd Horses,
"Wiud," Anyn an oll horseman, "in
tho grand ao.irot of n fnat horao. Good
lungs will cover h multitude of fault* •
while, on tho other hand, perfection of
shapo and form arc uHelens when the
wind is out. Tho chest, therefore, in
all cases, should lie large and capacious.
In shape it may vary somewhat, accord
ing to the service to which the horse is
to be put. If ho is to bo kept for slow
work and heavy drawing, tho cliost may
be nearly circular in form, because this
shape is one for strength and bulk, to
receive and bear up against the pressure
of the collar, while at the same time
sufficient room is secured for tlint expan
sion of the lungs caused by slow, regnlsr
work. But if the chest is circular, let it
be at the same time deep, or else the
lungs may be cramped. A hoi so with a
shallow ehest is worthless for any pur
pose. Tho rule, then, is this : For a
draught house, a circular but deep chest;
but, as you pass through the different
degrees of speed, up to tho raoer and
trotter, tho ehest will increase in depth,
compared to its roundness, until, for the
highest rate of speed, yhi must take a
chest as deep as a greyhound, and at the
same time not lacking in strength."
