Muraoka, of Tokio, on the magicmirror of Japan. 1t is generally supposed that its magical quality was discovered only recently ; but it was, says Dr. Muraoks, known for a long time in Japan. Old ladies have told him that in their youth, 50 years since, they frequently noticed, when at toilet, that the reflection of the sun from the mirror on the wall or ceiling contained the figures or letters on its back.

The blind and lame beggars, with the wheezy two-organs and eranky accor deons, all have their corners by n tacit understanding among the * profession ;" and if the blind man should “see” the lams man encroaching upon his “beat,” there would doubtless be » fight or foot-race. Beggars are found in front of all the uptown hotels : each one having his regular hotel square. They are there about meal time, in all their lonthsomeness, under the mistaken idea that people are generally in the best inmorafter eating, and consequent- ly the most libernl. Those who eat at high-priced restaurants and European hotels are generally thinking of the protective tariff ch:orges are in no humor to bled again. After dinner the beggars leave their beats on a roaving commission, and roam at random on Madison and Fifth avenues like a blind freight train. They manage to get to the theatres about the time they are ont, and “work” the emerging crowds for all they will stand. They know that a man is more liberal, or rather fooli hly liberal, when with a lady, specially if the couple are not married. jut citizens who know these whinning imposters, do not consider it a lack of charity to refuse them. But a stranger frequently gives, tearing his lady friend would deem him an *‘ unfeeling fellow ” to refuse. They then lie in at the restaurants until the last theatre goer has gone home. Beggars make from two to five dollars a day. They ask for ** only a penny ” but rarely less than a nickel Citizens whose sympathies are aroused, but whose doubts of their sincerity are searecely removed toss them a penny. Strangers give a nickel or tem cents; frequently weelerners, to whom begging is some- thing new, toss the mendicantan quarter or even a half dollar, and regard the look of surprise from the bystanders as a compliment of their generosity, rather than to their credulity. In the lower portion of the city, especially on Sixth and Tuird avenues, the beggars worn ha ge gu 3 4 Wikis receive their entreaties and invaribly insulting when refused. Perhaps it is owing to their desperstion, They get compar- atively few pennies, snd very rarely more than a penny from any one giver, They are met at the doors of business places with a cool reception ; and at the residences they do not fare much better. It mainly depends upon the frame of mind in which they find the servant girl and the condition of the pantry. impolitic as to enter a cheap restaurant their meals becanse of their poverty.

Adam had but one, and Noah one, hnd the world. Old Father Abraham bad the sly old Aunt Sarah got after him and flailed out the second one with a thresh poleand ran her off Jacob had two ; and if ever a man deserved two he did, but they didn't get along well, only one. King David had several, but he was cursed with ‘em, and actually committed murder to get one of ‘em, and lived in anguish ever after, for he paid, “My sin is greater than I can bear.” Old Solomon must have had an awful time of it, for he had a thousand, and they kept him so harassed and bedevilled that he flew to his inkstand and wrote that he had found one good man, but a good woman in a thousand Lie had not found. Of course not. How ecotuld & woman be good when she is only a thousandth part of a wife? But Solomon repented of his folly and said i$ was all vanity, and advised all men to “live joyfully with the wife whom thon lovest,” and to ‘beware of strange women.” 1 never think of the surplus wives who are sealed to the Mormons without a feeling of sadness and pity, for every now one causes the others a pang of shame. They are all in prison, and their dependence is like that of a caged bird that tamely looks for food. There is no escape, for woman is a proud creature and will suffer in silence rather than parade her folly to the world.
