METHODS OP TRAVEL IN JAPAN. A Japanese horse is 'so cheaply obtained and the cost of keeping it so insignificant that it is the fashion here to keep a pony and trap for individual or family use. One of the indispensable auxiliaries of an outfit of the pony and trap is a " betto." A "hello" is hostler and outrider, or rather hr.is an outrunner, as his place has been determined by usage to be near the head of the team. These fellows run like racers and do away with the necessity of hitching posts and fastening gear. YOur " betto " is sure' to be even With . the team when the lines are slackened and the occupant ready to alight. It it seldom that a gentleman takes the lines when there are ladies in the vehicle. Gen erally the ladies drive Without male compan ions and many of them!, base developed con filtrable ability in handling the lines; The most inexpensive mode of locomotion for any one residing here is to join the jin aisle brigade. One of these comfortable establishments, .with a gig-top attachment for protection against rain, can be- purchas ed for about $25. A man can be hired for shock** ri month to be constantly on band for propelling purposes, and he will travel about as far in a day as the average equine stock of the country. He requires no " betto" or grooming; takes care of him self and the rildsha o:ernes hi the morning audit at your command as long as needed. The jin-rikisha is •an indeapensable affair wherever it is introduced and there are many thousands of them in Japan.--San Francis. amide. , _ Annoyance Prevented.

SNUFF, AND SNUFFING. , A lucky capture of Spanish galleons, laden with choice snuffs from Havana, had inaug urated the reign of Queen Anne, and been the means of introducing into England the Continental fashion of snuff-taking. Ws gon-loads of the "landing dust"' thus im ported being publicly sold at 3d. and 4d: pound, the box 130011 rivaled and at length eclipsed the pipe. Sir Plume, "of amber snuff justly vain," became a character, and was kept in countenance as well by "the fair" at the drawing-room as the Chairman in the streets. To parody a well-known line, "Snuff ruled the Court, the camp, the grove." Snuff-taking was elevated to the rank of a passion by the wits and hewn of society. To offer a.box gracefully became an educational requirement, • and a general flourish of snuff-boxes took place, if not =" all over the land," as Cowper said, at least from Pall Mall to the 'Change. A pinch to conciliate, a .pinch to condemn; a pinch gave pungency to the jest, a relish to the swans, and equally served to cover embar rassment and chagrin. Talleyrand used to say—and htl was a priseur—that the' snuff box was essential to all great politicians, as time for thought :in 'answering awkward questions was gained in taking , or pretend ing to take a pinch. Certainly Prince Met ternich was devoted to the box, and dip lomats generally appear to have vie;ffed, it with favor, as well, indeed, they might,_ when some £B,OOO or 49,000 were expended to the purchase of boxes for presentation to foreign Ministers at the emanation of George IV.Z-Belgratia.

WO are now within a single yeai of the centenary of the first balloon, which was sent up on the :nth of June, 11 . 83, by the brothers Blontgoltier: Their balloon, yes inflated with heated air, but in the following August M. Charles employed ; hydrogen gas for the' same purpose. In September the Montgolfiers attached a car ,September fire balloon and placed in it the first aerial travellers—a sheep, a cock, and'a duck. The cock's leg was broken by a kick from the sheep, but otherwise the strangely assorted trio sustain ed no injury. In October the first human reronaut, M. Francois Pitatre de Rozier who was afterward killed in an attempt to cross from France England, made his first ascent• in a " captive " fire balloon tethered to the ground by ropes. In the following months, accompanied by the Mar quis d'Arlandes, De Rozier ascended in a tree fire balloon, and ten days later M. . Charles and Robert !ilk ended in a free bal loon inflated with hydrogen gas. The first balloon was sent up from England about the same time, and in February, 1784, the first which crossed the Chanie.l, - while in August of the same year the first human ascent from British ground was made by Mr. Tytler. Thirty-seven years elapsed before there was any definite advance on the achievements of the first two years of aeronautics; but in 1821 Mr. Green showed that hydrogen might be replaced by maim , coal gas, and that a balloon might be inflated and despatched wherever there was a'gas manufactory caps ble-of supplying the necessary quantity.— London Times.

A gentleman has recently told us that one of the' men mentioned in the articles on "snide showmen" has at different times bad an " attraction" in a dancing turkey. The bird was exhibited in a large cage, and crowds of people have stood before it and with wonderment seen it dance fast or slow at the word of command. The cage, with the bird in it was Owed op a platform be fore a curtain. Under the platform was placed a lamp, the flame of which touched the tin bottom of the- cage. Behind the cur tain a man was stationed who cotdd turn the flame up or down as. he desired. When ready the showman"tiould say to the turkey something like the following': "Now, Old fellow, dance. a little." The man behind the curtain would turn on the flame, the bottom of the cage ,in a moment became warm, and of 'course the bird felt inclined to raise its feet, and would do so. "Dance a fast jig," perhaps would be the next com mand. The manipulator of the lamp would Iran i :on more heat and the, turkey would move in a manner that was truly lively. The people would look and wonder, and praise the genius and patience of a man who could teach a turkey to dam& It is said that this man has made over $1,500 during the present season from his " great attractions," and ho will no doubt continue to make money in the same way, for, after all, the people seem to him to be humbugged. --Lettiston JournaL • Ax Eorronc►r.
