EQUIPMENT OF A CAMANcHE WARRIoR.-Capt
Merchant, of the Army, just arrived at Savannah,
presented to the editor of the Georgian, a shield
and qulver of arrows-such as are used by the
celebrated esfhanche Indians. They NAV be seen
on the round table of our reading room The shield
is made of tough hide, circular, and is probably 20
inches diameter 1t is attached by thongs to the
lrt arm The arrows may be 26 or 81 inches long.
They are beautifully feathered and barbed.
We are informed by Capt NJ, says the Georgian,
that within 40 yards These missiles are as sure and
as fatal as rifle bullet, and if any thing more So
as they are always poisoned for warfare An Off
Ger of the Army in Texas lately killed by these
arrows. The Camanches launch them with great
rapidlty and accuracy, as fast as they can be with.
drawn from the quivers. 1t is well attested fact
that they will send them through buffalo of mod
crate size Not more than one. fourth of the Ca
manche warriors yet armed with rifles.
ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE-A Roman cores
pendent of the London News, says that as " a
pleasing contrast to the miserable fate of SO many
republican celebrities, may mention the romantic
history OF young Neapolitan, named Rull alias
Luigi Barbara, who served during the war as an
oifcer in Garibaldis CORPS, and fell in love land

parture of Garibaldis legion from Rome the lover
assured his mistress that, if he survived and the
lates permitted, he should not fail to return ant
marry her. He arrived, Ged knows how, at Con
stantnoPle, and succeeded in obtaining commits
son IN the Turkish army, and more still, got per
mission to return to Rome tor his cara sposa wht
finds him doubly enchanting in a Fee cap ant

situated on the southern side Of 1t, and Is one
the most curiousy built towns | have ever been

and IL guarded by forts the hsrbor itself consist
at a species OF lagoon or Mediterranean sea, the
entrance TO which is the narrow mouth OF the har-

suburbs, which are built along the borders
of the lagoon, and Ora Banda, Scarlo, and
Petrsmsya form these suburbs; they may be
termed the cup town Of Curacao, whist

GUATEMALA, October Is, 1919.
The Deplorabie Condition Of the Country Troops
aud Robbers.
This republic still continues TO suffer all the
horrors Of war against property, commenced a
title more than two years ago. The government
has, whilst ! am writing, six thousand men under
arms, distributed around the country the Presi-
dent al Chiquimula, with two thousand men Ex
President CaIrera at Santa Rosa, with one thou
sand men; Col. Bolanos, lowering around this city,
with eight hundred men, and the remainder in
different parts of the republic, in numbers Of one
hundred and upwards.
Notwithstanding, the robbers made descent on
his city yesterday morning, the greater part of
which entered, whilst the rest kept watch outside,
robbing and numbering indlscrimnately for about
Two hours, after which they scampered off in
eastery direction with their booty. The govern.
ment duly apprsed OF the intention OF the
robbers the day before is took place. yet such is the
utter worthessness OF the authorities, that no pre-
parations whatever were made To meet the attack;
and such the immoral state Of society, and want
of confidence in one another, that they hide them
selves, instead OF uniting IN enc body tor self
defence. In this city alone, 5000 men might be
raised at the tap OF the drum, did they possess the
least spirit Of seli-detence.
such s the deplorable state of things here, that
we are fact falling into the condition OF our neigh
bors in YucafaD. IL rs impossible to give you any,

A WORp TO WoMEN.-We copy the fOllow'
ing passage fromq recent letter from Saratoga
10 the columns OF the Philadelphia Gazette
and leave our iair readers to judge OF its truth
and justice:
Among the female fashionables-I mean oil
course those who have complacenty assigned
themselves that place, and who would wiling
ly inject others with the same ccnVlcllon-'"e''
il n class-for the honor OF aur American wO-
mon. not numerous one-whn seem to believe
that their standing is regulated by the extent
and variety of their wardrobe. They stay un-
iii their stock is exhausted aud then repeat the
palt at Niagara, Newport or RoeEaway. q"
marvel TO all who have studieG and VINO ap'
nreciate the ease and economy OF lie, why
women, with their wits, can be persuaded 10
undergo the fatigues and pain Of the halt dozen
toilets which some of them will insist upon
exhibiting to our sympathizing eyes. AT Con-
press Spring and at breakfast there is as much
affectation and precision in the article OF dress
as for an evening assembly, Flaunting colors
seem to be all 'the go' with this SET and pro-
fusion Of paste diamonds are displayed to Sol
off charms which our bad taste does not appre-
ciate. AT dinner the grand parade is MADE
with show Of arms that would drive terror
into regiment Of hussars. The worst possible
r taste Is manifested in the toilet Of this meal
!, together with an entire absence Of that sens
y Of delicacy which always has been and ough
d to be the proverbial Characteristic OF the Amer
k lean woman. While she preserves that hg
i quality which is the offspring OF proper sell
j. respect, and the encouragement Of which VII
10 alwavs command admiration, other dehciencle
will be pardoned, whea she lorgets u she muI
fall in the scale Of morals, even in the estlmt

How TO MARRY.-When a young lady be-
haves to her parents in manner particularly
tender and respectful, from principle as well
as nature, there is nothing good and gentle
that we may not expect from her, in whatever
condition she may be placed. Were ] to ad'
wise my friend as to his choice Of wife my
first counsel would be, look out fOr one dis
tinguished by her attention and sweetness TO
her parents,' for the worth and affection iUdi.
Gated by such behavior joined to the habit Of
duty and consideration thereby contracted,
being transferred to the married state, will not
fail to render her mild and Obliging cOms
paniOn.
