ANCIENT AND MODERN TINES.


Its no unusual thing to draw comparison between
ladies of the present day and those who lived cen
fury ago; but if we go back to the time Of Anna
Bulleyn, the contrast presents what appears almost
burlesque. At that time very few ladies went to
court The great officers of state left their spous-
IS at home, at their magnificent mansions in the
country, to entertain their sporting neighbours
Madam was then delighted to have snug party
dance in the parlour, with the squire and his lady,
the parson Of the parish and his spouse, and, per
haps the butler and couple Of chairs, to make up
the set. She always at o'clock to see break
fast served in the great hall breakfast vas then
principal family meal, master, Mistress and servants
all teasted in the same room, not emitting regularly
70 relate their dreams Of the preceding night The
men after breakfast went to the cellar drink the
lady to her poultry and dairy and the young ladies'
to their usual occupations of making their clothes
and stockings, weaving and knitting not beng
then known. AT II they dined in room neatly
strewed with PUSHES, AT they supped; this was
their greatest entertainment. Then they amused
themselves with tales and sports until s, and were
all in bed before 9. Compare this life With a mo-

CEMETERIES,

The Jews have some remarkable
fancies concerning their dead. They
seem, indeed, to be as much distin-
guished from their ancestors by the
childish and monstrous superstitions
with which their literature is filled, as
by their firm adherence TO that law "a
gainst which they rebelled so often
before it was abrogated. So well,
however, sra they now persuaded Of
the resurrection, that the name which
they give to burial place is the House
of the LiUing, an expression finely inn
plying that it is the dead alone who
can be said to live truly. The body,
according to their notion, has GER
tain indestructible part called LUZ,
which is the seed from whence it is TO
be reproduced. 1t is described as a
bone, in shape like an almond, and
having its place at the end of the verte-
bra; and truly this is not more abb
surd than the hypothesis which as
signed the pineal gland for the seat OF
the soul. This bone, according to
the Rabbis, can neither be broken by
any force of man, nor consumed by
FIRE, nor dissolved by water and they
tell us that the fact was proved before
the Emperor Adrian, upon whom they
imprecate their usual malediction,
MAY his bones be broken! In his pre-
sence Rabbi Joshua Ben Chauma pro-
duced Luz: it was ground between
two mill stones, but came out as
