by virtue of the Union justly administered,
we look forward to see the South adopt all
the'means of modem progress, and assume
its proper relation to other States and
nations, on the basis of wealth, numbers and
intelligence!” This disposition tocorrect the
weary faults of the past by incitements to new
efforts for practical wo believe
to be the right tone for the Southern man of
letters to take among his countrymen.;' Let
every Southern journal inculcate with all its
might a strict attention to the business of get

The July number of The Occident opens
with the interesting report of the Executive
Committee of the Board of Delegates, repre
senting the.slate of Jews all over the civilized
and semi-barbarous world. S. Morais en
deavors to set right what he thinks the mis
apprehensions embodied in the tine article on
the Talmud in Dippineoits for May. His
view of the connection between the doctrines
of the Talmud and those of the New, Testa
ment'is thus expressed:
“ The former (Talmud) teaches that every
■man can be;-saved through good deeds and
repentance, the latter (the Testament) de
clares that salvation can only be attained
through a mediator divinely appointed. Per
fect freedom of action is the Jewish doctride;
the opposite creed sees man at
biß' 1 birth ‘ bound" in fetters of sin.
As to the analogy of some of the
maxims in the two aforenamed works, au
unbiassed critic will ascribe it to the oral in
struction of the Rabbis,daily received by the
founder of the hew faith, and will not lay it
down as an absolute sfact, that the :Talmud
copied tho new Testament. But a book hid
made Reappearance in Judea, about two cen
turies before the vulgar era, in which the
scholar, will discover sentences almost, identi -
cat with those met in the Evangelical,writings.
It the'wisdom of Ben Sirrah, or ,lJEoclesi
aslicUß.’” The sayings of the ancients and
their directions to man in all the walks of life
are'there beautifully exhibited, and that also
must-have been a fountain at which the
fathers of the Nazarine religion drew much
of their knowledge of human nature/’

We ; received from Duflield A.shmea'l Part
29ofDore’a Bible. The illustrations, which
have got completely out of place in the text,
are very melodramatic and imposing. Tne
best of the four which accompany the num
ber is a solitary figure of Isaiah. The print
ing and ink of ihis linglish edition is very
little if at all behind the French, the plates
are not perceptibly worn, while the text of
James I is,as every one knows,incomparably
superior to the French translation, even for
those who read the Continental tongue with
perfect facililty. The Bible as illustrated by
Dore is undoubtedly as a whole the mast
striking and magnificent obtainable.
The list of contents of the American Jour
nal of Horticulture tor July makes the
mouth water, beifig devoted largely to season
able fruits and berries, with the way to im
prove them. The opening article, “Stiel , °r,”
attributes the falling off of American fruit
crops of late years to the loss of so much
woodland up and. down the country. Tue
earhe is true of such ornamental tree 3 and
shrubs as the rhododendron and hemlock; and
tae counsel as to cherishing such tender
plants by devices that ,sball take the place of
foreßt protection i? practical and judicious.
The “Notes and Gleanings” are uncommonly
varied and instructive.
Two more volumes of Ticknor & Fields’
beautifully illustrated library edition of Wa
verley are sent us by G. W. Pitcher. The first
is the “Heart of Mid-Lothian,” with an en
graving of.Bffle Deans. ,The other includes
the two tales of “The Betrothed” and
“The Highland Widow,” with a pretty good
Bteefplate of Eveline in the Haunted Cham
ber. We searcely need repeat our opinion of
this edition,obviously one of the most elegant
yet issued in. America.

Boston, July 13, 1808. —I had a talk the
other day with Dr. Howe, of this city, on
the State of Greece and the Cretan Resolu
tion He handed me a number of letters
aud.documeats, with liberty to copy them or
otherwise usethem ; and as I find that they,
are full of interesting fa ts, 1 shall try and
make up Such a statement from them as will
givd a elder conception of what America has
done for the Cretan,exiles in Greece.
Dr. Howe is full of hope. He has no doubt
that Jhe Cretans will gain their independence,
if tiitfilr wives tod children,, who have left the
island tod are now the wards of Christen
r don#are -fed tod clothed by their co religiou

Thftilatest news rtceiv?q by Dr. Howe
from' Crete is dated- A,thefts,\ Juno. 13. It
-sny(i:~-v ’’V-''-/'V ; / ’ \ /" „ \ .
“ A letter from Crete, Bth June, says that at
Knres of Apokorone last Monday a fight
took place, lasting It hours, in which the
Turks were repulsed, losing 380_ hilled.
To-day lam told that a new attack is being
prepared on the village, which has remained
in the hands of the Christians since the battle.
At Belino the troops have been again re
pulsed.” , ~
The explosion of some torpedoes among the
Tmkish troops seems to have filled them
with astonishment and terror,and the Greeks,
who have a monopoly of these “radical de
elrncSves," are elated at the advantages they
give them. An American who “assisted at
a battle between the Christians and Mahome
dans—apparently a previous engagemenlr
writes under date of May 29, from Crete: A
battle was fought yesterday—the victory
ours; three explosions took place amidst the
enemy with great slaughter, demoralization
and flight: great rejoicing among,the Cretans:
our loss—two killed and ten wounded: glory
enough for one day.” . ,
Twenty-nine boxes of cloth and, clothing
have recently beon.forwarded to the .Cretan
exiles by --the Boston Cretan Committee.
The reception of the first invoice has called
forth warm words of thanks from the Greek
papers and Committees. It seetnß that the
need of such aid is urgent. The report of
the American-Greek Committee, printed at
Athens, and- jlist received, states that the
common schools and the industrial schools
founded by Dr. Howe in June, 1867, must
soon be closed unless additional funds are
forthcoming to support them. The state
ments and appeals of this Committee are
equally plaintive;,
“It is with great joy,” they write, “we
hail the renew e d interest of the American
public in behalf of the suffering Cretans. Da
ring last winter one ship after another con
veyed to Athens multitudes of women and
cbildrehm the most wretched state. _ These
for more than a year were wandering from
cave to mountain top, then along the soa
coast, watching for the friendly vessels which
might deliver them from hunger and the cru
elty of tbeirpursuers. Thus, the 12,000 refu
gees have increased to 70,000. Poor people!
They stretched their hand to Christian Eu
rope, but she is not 3’et satiated by this work
of destruction. ‘Go on, ye Cretan martyrs,’
she replies, ‘be butchered in cold blood, or
starve upon the mountains; weep and wail,
ye Cretan mo!hers,in a Btrange land, for your
warriors; wait tilL your little ones starve and
you perish from co'd and nakedness; till not a
dwelling shall rern-dn upon the Island unbo
n-ft.’”
After stating that the work of supporting
these 70,000 exiles falls mainly on Greece;
that business is stagnant, commerce at a
stand still, and the poor unemployed; that
the Greek Government has mortgaged every
thing available in order to supply the wants
of these its helpless guests and natural citi
zens, the report appeals to ns:
“Let America begin now when ©there are
exhausted; let her eagerly embrace the pre
sent opportunity to make herself beloved not
only by Greece but by freedom-loving people
everywhere. Let the black man hear of the
Cretan struggle, that he may have a chance
to contribute his mite. Let the studentßin
the learned institutions be organized. Let
literary men and women remember their in
debtedness to Greece, and all Christians aid
these heroic sufferers ere it is tod late.”
The Industrial Schools - were founded by
Dr. Howe in orderto prevent the evil effects
that always flow from the massing of large
of unemployed people in places
where no proper accommodations exist for
the seclusion of families. The Greek report
says: “For many months hundreds of Cretan
w omen were not only kept from idleness, but
also enabled to obtain a small income in ad
dition to the pittance they received from
the other committees. In this way 9,444 pair
ol stockings were knit, of which 2,518 pairs
were sold, 1,000 pairs sent to the Fair held
in Boston, and 1,926 pairs are in hand. 2,700
garments were made; 726 beds and 2,500
bags; the'sdiast served at first for carrying
bread and flourto the hungry in Crete, but
afterwards were used as apparel by both
seXef— as we have seen some arriving here
who wore jacket, pants or shirts made from
these hags.
“Next ’ provision was made for the chil
dren. With means supplied by Dr. Howe,
three schools were opened/to which another i
was added afterwards. In these schools a
multitude of boys.and girls have been trained
in elementary studies, while the girls have
also been taught needlework, so that there
are now five schools in Athens for Cretans.
« * * But, as with the industrial depart
ment. so it will be with the schools; unless
speedily aided, they too will pass away.
“ * * The, American ladies resorted to a
specific plan of distribution whereby no person
should receive arty aid who had not been.visited
by the Committee and found really in need. In
this way there have been distributed among
U.e refugees -at Athens, 8,855 articles ot
dothiDg; 8,617 cubits, of calico, cotton
cloth and -flannel; 726 straw beds; 700 pairs
shoes: 500 cßps; 120 cloth jackets; 60 blouses;
56 overcoats and 31 blankets. These do not
include the garments sent to Crete by Dr.
Howe, nor Arose distributed by him at Athens
and elsewhere in Greece.”
If any reader of this letter feels disposed to
asdlbese schools and refugees, and thereby
the,Cretan patriots, Dr. Howe, I venture to
say, will be glad to receive his contri
bution.
■, Dr. H6we has given a full description of
the condition of the exiles and a full state
ment of the Cretan questions in bia pamphlet,
recently published, entitled “The Cretan
Refugees and their American Helpers,”
Which is republished in the first num
ber of his monthly organ, The Cre
tan. Mrs. Howe, also, in her new book—a
charming, instructive, masterly production—
givcß us glimpses of the present situation of
the exiles. Let me close with a single ex
tract :
“Within doors, besides our grave studies,
vre have: visitß. .Many Greeks and Cretans
wait upon the veteran, together with Ameri
can' ' consuls, and Cretan women bringing
silks, lacfes'ftod stockings of their own manu
facture, oi; petitioning for little special helps

lowed to each of them/ by the i committee.
Some mysterious consultations are there,
bent on v toCr6iful conspiracies 'and Heaven
approvfed stratagems. '■ ■ Omar: Pacha tod his
army have surrounded the" unhappy Island

"Last evening the veteran received his
Cretan mail. The biscuits- arrived safely;
The letters which acknowledge them begin
with, “Glory to the. Triune God-” They then
invoke blessings on the. American people,
and fervently thank the who has
been at once the provoker of their zeal and
the distributor of their bounty. Such thanks
arepainfhl; they mabe m feel the agonized
Buffering to which our small largess gives a.
momentary relief. The Arkadi, our block
ade-runner; after landing her cargo, took on
board more than three hundred woman
and children fleeing from the last extremities
of want and misery. This morning appeare
at the door-of our hotet a little group of
these unfortunates—a mother and fear small
children, the youngest a little nursing babe.
Bread we give them, and a line to the com

“the Turks would murder nS.”.

[From the Kpricgflcld (Miuiß.i'llopuTjlicaii.]
Servantgalisin is a word coined to. supply a
needed term applicable: to' ..the’ preßent f day.
It iB a horrid wMcb many .ladles
are forced to ride. Never was, there, d time
when the evils of domestic life were bo hard
to endure. We pitied the slaveafiofced to
toil unpaid for their Southern mistresses} yet
many of our Northern housekeepers have
harder task-mistresses over them'than the
slaves. A young married' Southern ■: lady
assured me that “ho negro Slave on the plan
tations among which she passed her girl
hood suffered such slavery as she' endured at
the hands of her Irish nursery girL” I fully
believe tbe truth of her assertion. An ignorant
girl Boon learns her power, and is not slow to
use it Where lies the trouble? What is
the panacea which can soothe the woes Of
Northern housekeeper and break the chains
of “servantgalisin ?” There is strength in
unipn. Wo all, by experience, learn the
correctness of the fable of “The Bundle of
Sticks:" Bound together, the strongest man
could not break them. Singly, a child coalet
snap them iii twain. So with our woes—
Bingly, we could not combat them. Joined
in bands, the power is ours, and we can hold
it! “A Sorosis," a-.woman’s league, should
be formed in every social circle, rules should
be adopted and enforced, barriers erected to
resist encroachments, and victors* is oirfs. Our
women pride themselves to. a great extent
npon this independence of each other. Oae
says, ■ ‘My girls go and corneas they please.
It saves my coal and gas to have them out.
I have no children to need their- attendance,
and prefer my girls to visit rather than be
visited." Her next door neighbor requires
the attendance tifeher girls evenings. Hence
trouble arises. „ Now,,if there could be uni
form rules in a community, how much trou
ble would be avoided. If .every, lady, in a
street would agree that in hiring a cook aad
second girl, or a girl of all work, that certain
rules should he observed, how much easier
household wheels would run. One evening,
or one afternoon in a week, beside Sunday at
church, end Sunday evening alternately, if
there are two girls in a family, gives abun
dant liberty to 'a servant girl. Few mothers
of families, who do their own work, have as
tnuch leisure, and many a woman has not the
freedom she gives her servant " * L
1 One crying evil of the times is the readiness
with which housekeepers will engage a girl
who has been sent away by: another for im
pudence or bad behavior. They treason in
this manner: “This girl has lived months or
years with Mrs. ——, has been well trained,
and is now sent away for misconduct. She
will behave better with me and I will take
her.” Is this right? Servant girls soon learn
that if sent away for impudence from one
lady, another stands ready to engage them,
because they have lived with Mrs.
There is no reason why they should restrain
their passion; places are easily found. If
they are good cooks, well-trained chamber
maids and waiters, being Bent away is no
disgrace. So they, continue in their evil
courses, give their tongues full sway, and
their employers Buffer bitterly. Every lady
should make it a rule not to employ girls dis
charged for impertinence or any misconduct.
Then they will soon learn that they must
control their tempers or there is no home for
them.
A wife and mother must eoßtrol her tern- ■
per, or she loses all'power over young and
old. She must restrain the hasty Word; must
check the bitter reply. Patience, patience
soon becomes her watchword, and she often
silently repeats the word, hoping thereby, to
gain the virtue. If, in her girlhood, she has
not learned self-control, the lesson of after
years teaches it to her; not so with unedu
cated, unrestrained Servant girls. They do
not learn the lesson heaven-eyed patience
would teach them. Wages are their chief
consideration. If onq house, doeß not.desire
their aid, another, stands ready to welcome
them. So the evil grows in our midst.: And
Where doeß the blame ießt? Not with the
ignorant, misguideA girls, but with their em
ployers. Ours should be tbe task to guide
their ill trained tempers into better ways; but'
as long as our next door neighbor stands
ready to employ them it we turn them away
we have no hold upon them.
Will ladies awaken to the emergencies of
the case ? All over the North we heat the
bitter complaints of the housewives, and ho
one suggests a remedy. And the evil grows
as rapidly as the Snowball that is rolled over
the field. It would melt away as rapidly as
that same snowball dbes when exposed to the
sun’s rays, if we would only expose it, bring
it to the light, see our power and learn to use
it. Take for oUr motto “union is strength,”
and go boldly forward in the good cause. We
hold the reins and are cruelly driven, beside
being forced to pay most heavily for the privi
lege. ' . . . ‘ J.

Love ana Hquor—A Traeretf y of Indian
The foll®wlng story,'from 'the Milwaukee
Wisconsin, reads'like d, romance ofCooper’s
condensed, but is said to be ajrecord of tacts
gathered by a- geßtleman who la collecting
material for a' history or the upper Mississippi
•valley:, s , v; ;j
“A patty’or’thirty‘‘Wihnebagoes came
down from the.late-scaip dance at which the
tiibe was gathered omthe Trempeleau river,
in the North, and encamped! on, t J?rench’s
Island, in the Mississippi river, iust above
the St. Paul Railroad depot at La Crosse.
“The .band was under the control of a well
known chief of the W iririebagoes, named Wau
kee-se-hoong-er-er,orShake‘Chief,whohad
two wives,' Se-ea-kh’aaiffjHeHiefr-kee: Se-es
ka was about thirty yearsof age, graceful in,
appearance, with, a pleasant look and an . in
teresting facri: 4 With whites she was a faVdr
ite, while with the Winnebagoes she was
looked upon very kindly—indeed, adored
with all the ardor of Indian fervor. . Snake
Chief was a rioted warrior of, the Wiuneba
foes arid was very tnrich liked by his tribe.
le was a powerful and brawny fellow, and
when'Bobexpvas‘peaceful •and good-natured; :
when drunk he was 'ugly and disagreeable.:
One of his favorite pastimes, when in this
condition,’ was beating his wives,
“On Friday last Shake Chief returned to his
wigwam drunk. Se-es-ka was in the .wig
wam, arid the chief commerioed beating her
over tbeheftdaridabdulders.' Driren to des
peration asd tm&ble longer to Stand his, bra
tallty, Be-es-ka drewher knife and stabbed
the chief: twiceVtbe blade nenetfaungf Jfho j
heart of the warrior, who diedlnstan tly-whlle -
the first notes of; the death song wereon his i
lips. The affair at once created si sensation ,
among the Wihnebagoes, who did' notlpiow
how to act. They loved their chief, and they
loved their chief Lin’s Wife. It is a well
known ‘regulation’ among the Indians, that-i
when a man is slain a ' relative mast :
avenge his death by taking the life of I
the slayer. Be-eska knew this. Some of
the Winnebagoea urged her to fly, but she
would not. With true Indian resignation
she folded her blanket about lifer and sat
down in her wigwam, facing tfio door/ and
awaited her avenger. It was believed by
many that He-Dee-kee, the younger and fa
vorite wife would be the avenger/bttt she
seems to have bad no sucli intention. : Bhe
mourned, the loss of her husband, but took no
steps further than to send a runfier up the
Trempelau where Snake Chief’s relatives
were, to notify, them,-, of what bad taken
place. ■ Meanwhile Be:ea-ka sat in her Cabin
chanting the death song, stoically indifferent
as to what was going on about her, and only
talking when questions were asked her.
- “On Sunday morning an Indian from
TrempeleaU made Ids Appearance . in camp.
He was known as Chan-no-ne-ga, and had
evidently traveled without halting ’ since he
tcampd of the death ol Snake Chiet Entering
thecamp,Without a word he walked sot
emnly to the plsce where thO body of Snake
Chief lay, took a long look at it, and then
turned sullenly away. Nobody spoke to him,
yet all watched .with interest his,movements.
Deliberately loading Ids gun with buckshot,
he uninterruptedly walked deliberately
to the wigwam where sat, she
having remained ' there since the
mnider, took,one look at the woman, who
loudly chanted the death song. Not a muscle
of the woman’s facemoved to denote that she
labored tinder any excitement,! hut she sat
there quietly and calmly, hereyes .moving
upwards, andji'er voice, asithe pneontb song
escaped her lips, steady and firm. She knew
that the .avenger was. before her—that in
another moment 'her spirit would leave its
frail- tenement of day, and; seek that of the
chief who had gone before her; yet no look or
sign indicated that she feared the fate. Such j
is Indian stoicism and indifference- ;
“The eyes of the two did not meet. In the j
face of Chan-no-ne-ga there. was a look of |
mingled hate and revenge. Deliberately he j
raised his mttslret to ins shoulder —deliber-
ately he aimed at the woman's head-—coolly
he Bred. Tbe report rang out through the
Indian camp—the smoke cleared away—Se
es-ka stiU sat these—her blanket,: about her—
her arms folded —but one side of her head
was blown completely away—her "spirit had
lied, .-and the code ot Indian justice was satis
fied—Wau-kee-se hoong-cr-er was avenged.
“The murderer, with just a look to satisfy
him that bis work had been well done,
ehnuldered tois musket and walked- deliber
ately out of the camp. Nobody spoke to
him—nobody offered any Interference,. And
stepping into his canoo .Ire. paddled to the
shore, and disappeared in the woods, leaving
the Wihnebagoes stupefied.” : ’

A party in New York sends us ; a circular
announcing what he calls his “new method
of key writing and secret telegraph- corres
pondence," tenysrhich he states Ije has secured
a copyright The circular says: .“It is pecu
liarly adapted to thenecessitiesof Commercial
men, such as bankers, brokers,, produce and
commission merchants, in telegraphing the
rise and fall of stocks, and; instructions to
correspondents, etc. "While thousands are in
possession of the same secret method, there
ic no possible way in which .any communica
tion, telegraphic or. otherwise, can- be,, deci
phered except by the'person to! whom it is
addressed;’ Every word that letters can form
is a key, and any communication may be
written in as many different keys as there are
words er syllables in any language. To open
correspondence it is only necessary to send
to the person with whom you desire to cor
respond a chart, and,decide upon some word
for a key, such aa day, night,land, ocean, o*
any other Word. Once in possession of the
chart and keyword,your correspondence may
go on indefinitely without the possibility,, of,
disclosure.”
In the Democrat of April IS, 1864, we
published an original article on “Secret Writ
ing,” which was widely 'Copied into ex
changes, and in the course of-which we de
scribed a method of corresßgpderice by
cipher, Which is undoubtedly identical with
the one claimed as new and original by the
party alluded to above. At all events, it
answers the description >which we : have
quoted, and'will do all that he claims for his.
We transcribe the following directions from
our article published four years ago.
Take a square sheet; of paper, of conveni
ent size, say a foot square. Divide it by lines
drawn at right angles into 576 squares, 26
each way; in the upper horizontal row write
the alphabet, in its natural order, one letter in
each square; in the second horinoatal row
write the alphabet, beginning with D. There
will then be one square left at the end of this
row; into this put A. Fill the third row by
beginning with C, and writing A B after Z, at
the end. So on nnlil the whole sheet is filled.
When completed, the table, if; correct, will
present this appearance: In the upper hori
zontal row,’: the alphabet, in its'natural order,
from left to right; in the left hand vertical
row, the same from top to bottom; and the
diagonal. Irom upper to lower left hand cor
ner, Will pea line of Z's.
Bach, party must have one of these tables.
A key-word must also ba agreed upon, which
may be any word In the English language,
or from any other language, ‘ if it can be re
presented by,-English,,letters,, or, indeed,-it
may even be a combination of letters, which
spell nothing.
Now, to send a, message, .first write the
message in plairi English."" Over it write the
keyrword, letter over; letter,,., repefiting ,it Taa
niany times as' are necessary to cover the
messages. Takeftsimple cOse 'as an illustra
tion. Suppose the key word to .be. Grant,
and tbo message-- We have five.day a pro
visions. It should be plaoed thus:
Grant gr a n t gr ant gr a n t g ran t
Wehavcfivedays pro visions
We find in the upper horizontal row of the
table, the first letter of the key-word, G.;and
in the lefthand'vertical'column the first letter
of the message, W. Run a straight line down
from G, and one to the right from W, and in
the anglewhere.the two lines meet, will be
found the letter which’mutif be Written as the
first letter of the cipher. With the second
letter of the key-word R, and the second let
ter of the mesßage’E, find'in the same way
thesecond letter of thqcipher. • -7;sin,

there are no repetitions, and hence all com

Jest-ten years we have been able to boast that
whatever public buildingskuParis might be
superior-to those in our otoH metropolis,there
wb3 one building, at all events, iu London
which surpassed its Parisian rival both in
beauty-add papfnlnesß. .ThereccJald-, be, no
comparison between the spaoions reading
room of tho British Museum, with its noble
dome, second only to that of the Pantheon at
Home, its three hundred seats, and itstweaty
thousand works of reference, and the dingy
room in the Hue Richelieu, where there was
no catalogue, and where the library of works
of reference was only conspicuous by its ab
sence- This week, however, the new read
ing-room of the BibliothSane Impfiriale, which
has been: building for Bhe last two yearß, has
been opened to the public, and the French
journala'declare that in this/.too, as well as in
otherrospects, ‘Perfide Albion’ is now sur

French*is thejanguaxeof the family and w: cpnstantly
spoken-in the'lftstf cotaTs. • I Jeia-B tu th dm
“The new fSaUe dej Lreture’.is a ..spacious
"chamber, 1 one hundred and 1 eighteen feet
square. It may. best be described as forming
a square with a large alcove or bow on the
side feeing; the entrance. :In this> alcove,
which'is separatedby book-cases and an or
namental screen from the body of ■ the room,
are the seats of ttfe'offleiais; here books Are
euppliedto the readers. A few very ight
and elegant iron ; pillars support a domed
ceiling in which skylights are pierced.- The
Wallaabove the. bookcases, the latter,being
two stories ' high; and reaching half-way to
the roof, are divided into large panels, three
on each side of the room, and painted with
foliage in very doubtful taste. ■ ■ 'Between the
panels are placed twenty-four medallions,
each containing a bust of one. of twenty-four
cbiefe bf.modern literature—according to the
authorities of the Bibliothfique." Of, these
eleven are French.' England is'represented
by Shakespeare, Milton, Newton and.Eicon;
iK.tj bowCver/thC author pf the ‘Npyutn Or
ganon,’ but Roger Bacon,.tbe fabled,inventor
of gunpowder. Goethe Slone represents the
country ofßchiUer, of ;Herderand of Leasing.
“The tables for the readers are in
rows acrost the room, and will accommodate
ceaxly,four hundtedktpdents/: not quite’ orfe
hundred more than can bo seated at-the Brit
ish Mnseum,' This superiority in pbint.of.ac
commodatioh is,’however,attained by the sac
rifice of pinch df ‘th"e comf'/rt of individtiil
i traders. UjThere is no division,as with tis, be
tween a reader and his opposite neighbor, no
cunninglyrebiitriveddesk on which to place a
book, and,'; worst of "all/; there ia not a piece
of blctting paper to bo obtained in the whole
ropihj sawdust, that relic of bjirbaritj,. sup
plied its placel A few Ibw bookcasea, sepa
rated by light iron doors from the main tiers
of bookcasesj-contain a fe w booksof. refer
ence, ‘btttf these can hardly be inore" than 'one
thousand In nrnnber. For all ether ‘works
ycu innst apply, as at the British Musbum, by
wrii ing' pna printed form the title of the work
required, and the name of its author. You
are particrfarly requested also to write down
the size,the date and the plac’c of publicatum.
How yen are to comply with this regulation
in the total absence of a general catalogue -it
is not easy to understand.: Near .the, bureau
of the officials stand two desks with ‘cata
logue' imprinted, in gold letters on them, but
theV contain only catalogues of works relating
to'tne history 6f France and to the science of
medicine.
“No;ticket of;admission is demanded as at
the British Mnseum; the library is open to
every, pne over sixteen years of age. A slip
of paper, or ‘bulletin,’is handed to you at the
door, pit,-..which .you. are -required to enter
your name and Address; and on which the
titles Of the books received by you are also
written. On leaving you return-the books,
and ‘rendu’" is ‘stamped against their titles.
You are not allowed tto leave .without this
‘visa’ on your ‘bulletin, ’ which you return to
the servant at the door. It is announced,
however, that these formalities will be abol
ished, and that the system of admission by
tickets, available for a limited period; will be
adopted—a manifest improvement”
American Women Abroad. —One Sigis
mnnd KOlisch writes from Paris to a Vienna
paper as follows:
“When you, now-a-days, see at the JSois
de Boulogne a shockingly deeollette fair one,
you may be sure that she is either from the
Rue Breda or an Americaine. .‘C'est une
A meric,aine’ is now uttered with a shrug by
the representatives of good society, and
with a sneer which cannot but hurt to the
quick all well-wishers of the American Re
public.” ■■
-! Either there is much exaggeration in this
offensive paragraph, or the.better Class Of our
women is not represented abroad.
