VOICES.
Par before the eyes or thOnOntli or the
habitual gesture, as a revelatio* of , character,
_.is the quality of the voice and , the Manner of
*sing it. It is the first thing that strike&nain
a new. acquaintance, and it ., as ene of
_the inpst
unerring tests of breeding and education.
There are voices which have a certain truthful
sing about them—a certain something, unforced
and apontaneouo, that, no. trainieg'teu . give
' Trairiing can do much in the way of making a
voice; but , it can never compass • more. than a
bad of 'Ole quality; for the very fact
of its being an 'imitation, however ac
. tamale, betrays itself like _rouge' on a
woman's cheeks, or a wig, or dyed hair. On
the other hand, there are voices which have
tlie jar of falsehood in every tone, and that are
as full of warning as the croak of the raven or
the hiss Of the serpent. There are im general
the naturally bard voices which make thorn
:*selveii caressing, thinking by that to appear
sympathetic; but the fundamental quality
. strikes through the overlay, and a person must
be very dull indeed who cannot detect the pre
tence in - that slow, drawling, would-be affec
,tionate voice, with its harsh
,undertone and
sharp 'accent whenever it forgets itself. NA,
without being'false or hypocritical, tliem.are
vvoices which puzzle • as well as disap
point us, because so entirely in
, hatinonious with the appearance of the
sKaker. For instance, there is that thin treble
squeak we sometimes hear from the mouth of
a well-grown portly man; when we expected
the fine rolling utterance which would have
teen in unison with his outward seeming; and,
on the other side of the scale, where we looked
for a shrill head voice or a tender musical ca..
: -. 'dence, we get that hoarse elieSt voice with
which young and pretty girls sometimes Startle
In fact, it is one of the characteristics of
the modem girl of a certain type; just as the
babittnil use of slang is characteristic of her, or
'• that, peculiar rounding of the elboWs and
turning out of the wrists, which are gestures
• that, like the chest voice, instinctively belong
to men only, and have to be learned and prae
,.tiied by Women.
Nething betrays so much as the voice, save.
perhaps, the eyes, and they can be lowered, anti
so far their expression hidden. In moments of
einotion no skill can hide the fact • of disturbed
feeling, though a strong will and the hit of
self-control, can steady the voice when else it
Would be failing and tremulous. • But not the
strongest will, nor the largest amount of self
control, can keep it natural as well as steady.
It is deadened, veiled, compressed, like a wild
creature tightly bound and unnaturally still:
One feels. that it is done by an effort, and that
if the strain were relaxed for a moment the
wild creature would burst loose in rage or
despair,qind the voice would break out into
the Scream of passion or quiver away into the
falter' of pathos. And this very effrt is as
eloquent as if there had been no holding down
at all, and the voice had been left to its own
impulse unchecked. Again, in fun'and humor,
is it not the voice that is expressive, even, more
thin the face? The twinkle of the eye, the
hollow in the under lip, the dimpleS about, the
mouth, the play orate eyebrow, are all aids
certainly ; but the voice ! The mellow tone
that comes into the "utterance of one man, the
surprised accents of another, the fatuous sim
eplicity of a third,the philosophical acquiescence
ef,a fourth when relating the most outrageous
impossibilities—a 'voice and manner peculiarly
Transatlantic, and indeed one of the Yankee
forms of fun—do notwe know all these varie
ties by heart? have we not veteran actors
whose main point lies in one or
other of these varieties? and what
would tie the drollest anecdote if
told in a voice which had neither play nor
significance? Pathos too—who feels it, how
ever beautiffilly expressed so far as words may
go, if uttered in a dead and wooden voice
without sympathy? But the poorest attempts
at pathos will strike home to the heart it' given
tenderly and harmoniously. And just as ow-.
Lain popular airs of mean association can be
made into church music by slow time and
stately modulation, so can dead-level literature
be lifted into passion or softened into senti
ment by the voice alone.
We all know the ellixt, irritating or south
ing, which certain voices have over us/; and
we have all experienced that strange impulse
of attraction or repulsion which comes from
the sound of the voice alone. And
generally, if not absolutely always, the
impulse is a true one, and any modification
which increased knoWle dge may produce is never
quite satisfactory. Certain voices grate on our
nerves and set our teeth on edge ; and others
are just as calming as these are irritatiligmaiet
ing us like a composing draught, and setting .
vague. images of beauty and pleasantness
afloat in our brains. , A good, voice. calm in
tone and musical in quality,is one of the essen
tials for a physician; the "bedside voice;'' which
is nothing if it is not sympathetic by constitu
tion. Not false, not made up, not sickly, but
tender in itself, of a rather low pitch, well
modulated, and distinctly hannoniolLS
-in its notes, it is the very op
posite of the
. orator's voice, • which
is Artificial in its . management and a made
TOM. Whatever its original quality may be,
thq orator's voice bears the unmistakable stamp
of art and becomes artificiality ; as such it may
be, admirable—telling in a crowd, impressive
in an address—but overwhelming And chilling
at home, partly because it is alwafs7..onscions
and never self forgetting. An orator's voice,
with its care:tit intonation and accurate accent,
would be as much out of place by a sick-bed
as Court trains and brocaded silk for the
nurse. There are certain men who do a good
deal by a hearty, jovial, fox-htinting kind
of voice—a voice a little thrown up for
all that it is a chest voice—a voice with a
certain undefined rollick and devil
many -care sound in it, and eloquent of a large
volume of vitality and physical 'health. That,
too„ is a good property for a medical man. it
gives the sick a certain fillip; and reminds them
pleasantly of health and vigor; it, may have a
mesmeric kind of effect upon them—who
knows?—and induce in them something of its
'own state,''' provided it is not overpowering.
But a voice of this kind has a tendency to be-'
come Insolent in its assertion of vigor, swag
gering and boisterous; and then it is too much'
for invalided nerves, just as mountain winds
or sea breezes would be too much, and the
acent of flowers or a hayfield oppressive. The
derical - voice, again, is a class voice; that neat,
careftk precise voice, neither wholly made nor
yet quite natural ; a voice which never strikes
one as hearty or as having a really genuine tiqer
ance, but which, yet is not Mipleaiant if- one
,doeS not require too much spontaneity. The
clerical voice, with its mixture of familiarity
and oratory, as that of one used to talk to old
women in private and to hold forth to a con
greption in public, is as distinct in its own way
as the mathematician's handwriting; and any
one can pick out blindfold his man from aknot'
of talkers, witbont, waiting to see the square-cut
collarand close white tie. The legal voice is
different again ; but this is rather a variety of
the orator's than a distinct species—a variety
standing, midway between that and the eleri
ca)„. atferding more scope -than either.
The voice is much more indicative °lithe
state of the mind than: many people know Of
or. allow. One of the first symptoms of faillug
,v,krairvigi*erits in the indistinct or confused
utterance; no idiot has a dear or melodious

voice is only a little bit of finery, quite in its
place if net carried into the home, whore, how
ever, silly men and women think they can im
pose on their house-mates by assumptions which
cannot stand the test of domestic ease. , The
lover's voice Is of course ant gene)* ; but: sheitl
is another kind of voice which one heard seine
timeathat .is quite as enchanting—the-rich,
full, melodious voice which irresistibly suggests
sunshine and flowers, and' heavy 'bunches of
purple grapes, and a wealth of physical- beanti
at all four corners. Such a yokels Alboni's ;
such a voice we can conceive Anacreon's to have
been ; with less lusciousness and more state -
liness; such a voice was Walter Savage Litu;•
does. His was not an English yoke; it was
too rich and accurate ; and yet it was 'clear and
apparently thoroughly unstudied. Are celare
artem, perhaps; there was no .. , greater treat of
itakind than to hear Lander read Milton or
Homer. Though one of the essentials of a,
good voice is its clearness, there are certain
lisps and catches which are very pretty,
though never- dignified; but most of
them are exceedingly painful to the ear. It is
the same with accents. A - dash of brogue, the
faintest suspicion of the Scotch twang, even a
verY'. little' American accent—hut very little,
like red'pepPer to be
,Sparingly used, as indeed
wenuty say with the others—gives . a certain
piquancy to the voice. So does a Couthiental
accent generally, few ofus being able to dis
tinguish the French accent from the German,
the Polish from the Italian, orthe Russian from.
the Spanish, but lumping them all together as
"a foreign accent" :broadly # Of all the Euro
pean voices the French is perhaps the most un
riasant in its quality, and the Italian the most
delightful. The Italian voice is a
song in itself, not the sing-song voice
of an English pariSh schoOlboy,
but an unnoted bit of harmony. The French
voice. is thin, apt to hecome wiry and metallic;
a head voice for the moat . Part, and eminently
unsympathetic; a nervous, irritable voice, that
seems more fit for complaint than for love
making; and yet how laughing, how bewitch
ingit can 11141e:itself i—never with the Italian
roundness, but i!ii/inant in its own halt pettish
way, prtifekiiig, enticing, arousing. There
are some voices that send you to sleep, and
otheri that stir you up; and the French voice'
is of the latler kind when setting itself to do
mischief and work its own will. Of all the
differenceslying between Calais and Dover,'
perhaps nothing will strike the traveler more
than the difference in the national voice and
manner of speech. The sharp, high-pitched,
stridulous voice of the French, with its clear
accent and neat intonation is exchanged for
the loose, fluffy utterance of England, where
clear .enunciation is considered pedantic;
Where brave men Cultivate a drawl, and:pretty
women a deep chest voice; Where well-educated
peel* think it no shame to run all their words
into each other, and to let consonants and
vowels drip out like so many drops of water,
with not much more distinction between them,
and where no one knows hoW to educate his
organ artistically, without going into artifici
ality and affectation. And yet the caltivation,
of the voice is an art, and ought to be made as
much a matter of education as a good carriage
or a legible handwriting.. We teach our child
ren to sing, but we never teach them to speak,
beyond correcting a glaring piece of mispro
nunciation or so in consequence of Which We
have all sorts of odd voices among us—short,
yelping voices like dogs, purring voices like
eats, croakings, and lispings, and quakings, and
chatterings ; a very menagerie in fact, to he
bend in a room ten feet square, where a little
rational cultivation would have reduced the
whole of. that vocal chaos' to order and har
mony, and made what is now painful and dis
tasteful beautiful and seductive.
Incidents of the Slave Trade In Egypt.
A correspondent of the Ohici State Journal
writes from Alexandria, Egypt, an interesting
account of the slave trade in Cairo, from
which we take the following:
"The trade in white slaves is in •the- hands
of Turks, and of tliat my guide professed very
little knowledge, but with the trade in blacks
he was quite familiar. They are now seldom
brought in large companies to Cairo, but they
are brought so from the Soodan to Osioot and
other places up the river. Prom these points,
. from one to live at a time are brought to Cairo
on grain boats and other vessels. If any ques
tions are asked, the captains, with a little
backsheesli to eonlirm their story, can
easily pass so small a number of
supernumeraries as wives, children, •ser-.
vants or sailors.l From Boolilig the' port .
of Cairo, these slaves are retailed,. as there may
be opportunity, to persons who want their ser
vices. If the vessel must move before such
opportunity occurs, they are sold to a dealer,
who buys cheaper than the retail purchasers.
My friend told me that he had a number of
black slaves, but said he bad allowed them to
marry, and had given them free papers; that
their service with him was voluntary, and in
the event of his death they wpuld be safe from
the claims of heirs and creditors. It is com
mon for - Egyptians, who know that almost all
Christendom opposes the institution, to. make
such apologies to Frank acquaintances, but in
this case I believe the statement was neffeet:—
"I then asked him about the eunuchs, who
form a considerable part of many households,
and have generally an important share of politi
cal intrigues. He told me that they are •ex
pensive articles, costing each, when young and
healthy, from a thousand to fifteen hundred
The white slave women, he says, are
of about equal value; but a common black
slave of either sex can be bought from the
dealers for prices ranging from seventy-five to
a hundred and fifty dollars. Of course, when
they have been kept to service till they are
skilled in some particular employment they are
much more valuable. The trade in eunuchs,
he told me, has' its headquarters a little Way
south of Khartoum.
'This conversation increased my cariosity
and strengthened my determination to see the
Cairo slave-pen if possible. To accomplish
my purpose I made application to another na
tive friend. lie said, 'No, I am too well known,
but I,lvill lend you my coat, and, you will pass
fora Levantine, and there is a young man
here can show you. That coat of yours looks
too English.' We exchanged cOats.. The young
Man and I mounted donkeys, and iu ten: min
utes we had left the Frank quarter and were
winding our way throtigh the narrow crooked
and dirty streets of a thoroughly Aral) neigh
borhood. Suddenly my companion called a
halt, and said one of the buildings we had just
passed was sometimes used for a pen, and he
would Inquire if they had a. stock at present.
came to me in a minute, and told me that
if the dealer pressed any of his women on me,
I must object that they were too old; that my
wile wanted a girl young enough to he trained
to take intelligent care of the children. This
was his plan for us to get away without reveal
ing the real nature. of our btisines.s.
"Entering the court of the building, we were
met by a dirty, but rather polite Arab, who
conducted us upstairs for a look at his pro
perty.. In our way up we passed at one of the
landings four or five young men and boys,
who seemed no way remarkable excepb for
blacktaiss,. dirtiness and scantiness of Clothing.
A little further on we were shown four young
women. It would be hard to tell: their ages,
with much precision, hut they -were probably
between eighteen and twenty-live.. They were
very black, , were' said to be from the Soodan,
and; evidently knew very little Arabic. , They
were manifestly savages ; appeared to be from

A correspondent of the Pall;Mall Gazette
'Says :
”I am living in a village some forty miles
south from Paris, and eight ,front the nearest
railway station. It is probably a fair average
representative of those numberless villages
which • stud the French landscape, and in
which dwell the cultivators of that chessboard
looking. country, which offers such a contrast
to our own broad fields and green hedgerows.
Of the life and the agriculture, of the thoughts
and ways of the inhabitants of that land, the
ordinary, traveler who rushes past it in his
train and confines his feet to where his Murray
guides him, has commonly no conception. So
perhaps it may net be without interest to your
readers if I try to tell them what I see and
learn of the people by living among,•thent.
"There is a proportion of the population iii
this part of France, perhaps amounting in num
ber to a fourth of the number of proprietors,
Who aremerely hired laborers and aro not also
owners. 'But these have always before their
eyes the - hope, and the possibility of becoming
proprietors, and their number is so small that
they are able to secure good wages, out of
Which they ,can afford to live well, and yet
graduallY to lay by something. Between this
class, then, and the humblest of the proprie
toni there is no great difference in the mode of
life. Their morning meal is generally
soup and "bread, at midday bread and
wine, or a bit of sausage, add at night soup
again. Two or three tines a week they eat
meat. On this diet very hard work can be and
is done. But it is thus moderate because there
is in operation the_ motive of saving, which
affects equally laborers and small owners. The
former•save that they may beeome twisters, the
latter that they may enlarge their properties.
Land is the passion of the French peasant. So
great is the demand that thirty to forty years'
ptirchase is commonly paid for, small . proper
ties in this neighborhood. To acquire land it
is frequently the case that debt is incurred,
and this necessarily causes, in some instances,
difficulties ending in foreclosure and sale.
"The amount of land Which is deemed suf- .
ficient to maintain a family in comfort is eight
to,len acres, which enables them to keep two
cows. But as much as seventy acres of. - light
soil are cultivated by a single family, with the
help of a pair of homes. Those who have not
the means of keeping horses of their own hire
them •at the necessary season front a neigh
boring farm, or from another small proprietor
who keeps . them for letting oat.
The larger properties or ffirms have horse
power threshing machines; on the smaller
the flail is used. But it is obvious that a trav
eling steam threshing-machine might be readily_
broughtinto operation, and perform this work
more cheaply. • Those who have not proper
ties of their own to occupy their whole time,
hire themselves out as day laborers. There
are also-a few who have no property of their
own, and work for wages only. Half-a-crown
is the ordinary day wages at the present, time,
the rate having recently risen considerably.
Items are also said to be constantly advancing.
"Of society, besides the artists who happcu
to be residents, but who are out of doors all
day, it is true we have not much. But of an
afternoon in the back yard, under a - .sort of
trellis of vines which leads from the back door
of the house to the cookery cupboard, which is
called a kitchen, a little conversation party is
often improvised, in which the hostess, looking
Up from her culinaryoperations, the host rest
ing On a bench; and any Chance visitor,peasant
or Strang,er wha-drops in from the village, take
their equal part. It is a life of extreme sim
plicity, and absence alike of false pride and
false humility. The easy yet self-respect
ing equality which makes its charm is
partly the result of the slighter barrier
of social distinctions on the Continent
dian among us, but something is also doubt
lesi due to the character of the, host and his
family. Hu himself is a man, of some standing
in the village, being owner of several houses,,
besides the auberge ; he is extremely intelli•
gent., and take's a lively interest in agriculture
as well as in politics. llis wife is frank-look- •
ing and flank-spoken; their daughter, a hand
some girl of twenty, who plays the piano really
well, waits also at the table d'ffifte with a word
always ready in. answer to any harmless badi
nage that may b'e addressed to her by the guests,•
most of whom are old habitues ; and the son,
two years younger, divides his time between.
Shooting and painting, having caught the
artistic fever in the atmosphere that surrounds
him."

finally dies, as above stated, This is too often
the case, and Yet it is impossible to induce this
owners to admit the real cause of death. ' The
carcasses of these horses are then sold to a
dealer, who dissects them, obtaining about
one dollar for the bones and two dollars for tho
hide. In most cases the post mortem examina

animals are scarcely one-third the natural size,
some of them so small , indeed, that a quart of
oats would calls,, a considerable extension to
them. The bones and hoofs aro taken to a'

AsornElt IiANDSOME rISIPROVEMEWF.—
Arch street is rapidly becoming converted ink)
a business thoroughfare, and the wideness of
both the carriage-way and theMdewallts gives
it peculiar advantages in that respect. East
of 'Tenth street only a few dwelling houses
remain, and the changes into stores aro con
stantly going on. The street now contains
some of the largestand finest stores to be
found in the:city, and business of all kinds,
wholesale and retail, is transacted. Two
handsome additions to this•character of stores
have just been completed and arc nearly
ready for occupancy. They are owned by
Mr. E. Ketterlinus, and occupy lots Nes. 311
and 313. These stores are taclf 30 feet front,
are five stores in height, and have iron fronts
with ornamental cornice. One store-is 140-and
the other Idifect in depth, and both have
ontlets'on Cherry street. The' buildings are
about 76 feet high,,and are so "constructed as
to present the appearance of one -extensive
establishment. They are built in the most
substantial manner, and the interior. is fitted.
up as lirst-elags atom generally ere—with•
skylights,z ventilatons, counting-rooms, &e.

HEAVY DIAMOND ROBBERY.
A Bold TrallSSeilollllln Albany.
[From the Albany Journal, December 10.1_
Last evening, about 6 o'clock, a most daring
and successful robbery was perpetrated at the
well-known . jeWelry establishment of Messrs.
W. H. Williams & Son, No. 488 Broadway.
It appears that within the past few, days a
genteel-looking man has frequently walled at
the store and asked to be shown some diamond
goods, but at no time did he make apurchase.'
The individual called again last evening while
the junior member of the line was in the
store, together with two boys, and requested
to be shown some diamonds. Mr. Williams
took a tray, of diamonds, containing a .
number of rings valued at 82,500, and
placed them Upon the counter. The
stranger took one of the rings out of the tray,
and while examining it dropped it behind the
counter, undoubtedly with the inteUtion of
seizing the tray while Mr. Williams Was steep
ing.to pick up the ring. Being somewhat sus
plcious, hoWever, Mr. Williams did not stoop,
and the robber thereupon boldly seized the
tray and started for the deer.' Mr. Williams

sss fastened, The ingeffionli arrangement, which
shows that the robbery bad been deliberately
planned.. prevented the door from being
opened until the robbers had an opportunity
I to escape. Mr. Williams at once, raised an
,alarm, and hiB outcries attracted the,attentioti
of Mr. Pester, in' an adjoining building, and
that gentleman caine out and unfastened the
door. The robber ran up Broadway to Maiden
• ane, thence to the corner of James street,
where a cutter in charge of another confede
rate Was in waiting. The robber got into the
cOtter and was riipitAy driyen Jame
street to Stephen street, thence to Pearl street,
where all ttace of - them was lost. A search
which was subsequently made in the vicinity
of •the store, in the hope of finding some of the
rings which, it is supposed, might have been
lost in the struggle to close the door, resulted
in the finding of one of the rings, valued at
$35. The police were immediately notified of
the robbery, and officers wore despatched in
different directions in quest of the robbers.
Despatches were also sent to the police authori
ties at different points, apprising them of the
robbery.

the North German Confederation is not such
as to cause a change in the attitude of France.
In Italy order is still gaining ground, in spite
of movements of revolutionists. The book
makes an important declaration respecting the
(Ecumenical Council, and says this body bent
side the Pile of the political powers—se the
Emperor is resolved' not to use his incontesta
ble right 'to intervene. in the deliberations
and through their . representatives all the:.
Catholic powers approve this course. The
Turco-Egyptian question is reviewed, 'and the .
efforts made. to reconcile the Sultan and Vice
roy are dwelt upon at length. American
affairs are next treated of.- The advent of
Grant to the Presidency of the United States
has made no change
_in the good relations
existing between France and the. United States.
• France has assisted the efforts of the Washing
ton government to re-establish peace between
Spain and the South American republicS, but
the synipathy shown by the United-States and
South America with the rebellion in Cuba,'
im.s, unfortunately, complicated the settlement
of this question. In winding up this_ subject,.
the book says: "The French government has
no reason to violate the laws of neutralty, and
the only aim of this goveriient: is to develop
peacefully its foreign relations, and to guard
the interests of France.
