surfece, which are peculiarly essentis
to this delicate organ. No one can fai
to have remarked that aneye which

In fine, to the authors prohibition 0

be added recommendation Of cold wa

WHAT l LIKE TO SEE like to see
ladies in the street richly dressed, with
their shoes down at the heel. It shews
"a wish to avoid unnecessary expense,
and an Indifference to things below.
like to see clerks and shop boys
making 'swell' in buggy wagons on
Sunday afternoons. 1t shews proper
observance Of the day.
like to see young ladies take advan-
tage Of their being ladies to pull about
the stock Of dry good sellers. 1t shews
their consciousness of the peculiar pri-
vileges Of the softer sex.
like to see lady who keeps doz-
en- servants, shaking the mat or wash
ing down the door steps in the MORN
ing. 1t is proof Of her thorough spi-
rit Of neatness.
| like to see the ANIMALS for the year
1887 on every ones table. 1t convin-
ces me that if l should wish to buy one
for friend some five months hence, as
a new years gift, they will be publish
ed in season.
l like to meet young ladies Of sixteen
who have read Newton and Lockesnd
Paley, and who, if these happen to be
cannot tell whether they
were Caribees or New Zealanders. II
shows that they have been fashionably
educated.
l like to have person make me Al
call or visit, and talk the whole time
without allowing me tospeak. 1t shews
that he is very agreeably entertained.
l like to have . friend make me We
ny stupid visit Of five rpinntes, and then
rising in a hurry to depart, stand al
the back Of his chair or at the doorway
for half an hour, whilstI am doing my
utmost to bow him out. It shews a
cool complacency and self-possession.
SpA1N-THE wIcKEDNEss OF WAR
The extent Of bloodshed in Spain since
the commencement of the civil war,
which is still raging which is still RAJ
ying with unmitigated fury, is truly ap-
palling, and much greater, probably,
than the American public imagined. 1t
isstated in the Sorobado, a Madrid jour-
nal received few days since from an
arrival at Boston, from the beginning
of the war in 1888, to the LIST Of April,
1886, there have been ESQ, 535 Carlists
killed on the field Of battle; and 54, 49s
fallen prisoners. Of the Queens army
1884 have been killed, and s9,6ls
taken prisoners. Within the above pc
Rod SAG have been fought, in w.hch
the CarIists have been 900 tics com
pletely routed, and 243 A'nes partially
defeated. The Qu~Sn army has been
defeated 80 lines. The number OF
killed on ne field being 43s,4o The
number who have died Of their wounds.
from The numerous scattered massacres
that have occurred, and from sickness
and famine, would probably swell the
number to two thirds of a million OF
lives that have been sacrificed in this
war. Wellindeed did Wellington say,
that there is more bloodshed in one ci-
vii war, than in five international ones;
we'll have France and England deter
mined to close the sangulnary horrors
Of the one in Spain.-.Sun.
