Threshing Floor in the East.

We left the plain of Hinnis by pass
through the mountain range of Zernak. Ia
The valleys we found clusters of black tents
belonging TO the nomad Kards, and the hill
sides were &C vered with their focks. The
summit OF high peak oyerhanging the road
is occupied by the ruins of a castle, formerly
held by Kurdish chiefs, who levied black
mail on travellers, and carried their depreda-
tions into the plains. On reaching the top
of the pass we had an uninterrupted view Of
the Subhan Dhan. From the village OF Kar-
agol, where we halted for the night, it rose
abruptly before US. This magnificent peak,
with the rugged mountains Of Kurdistan, the
river Euphrates winding through The plain,
the peasants driving the oxen over The ocean
on the threshing- floor, and the groups of Kur-
dish horsemen with their long spears and
flowing garments, formed one of those scenes
of eastern travel which leaves an indelible i'm
preston on the imagination, and bring back
in after years indescrlbable feelings Of pleas
ure and repose. The lhreshng-fioor, which
added SO much 10 the beauty and interest of
the picture at Karagol, had been seen in all
the villages we had passed during our days
Journey. The abundant harvest had been
gathered in, and the corn was now to be
threshed and stored for the winter. The
process adopted is simple, and nearly such
as it was in pararchal times. The children
either drive horses round ana round over the
heaps, or. standing upon a sedge stuck full
of sharp fints on the under part, are drawn
by oxen over the scattered sheaves. Such
were the rhreshng-sledges armed with
teeth mentioned by Isaiah. In no instance
are the animals muzzled-' thou shalt not
muzzle the OK when he lreadelh out the corn;'
but they linger 10 pick up scanty mouthful
as they are urged on by the boys and young
girls, TO whom the duties Of the ihreshng
floor are chiefly assigned. The grain is win
moved by the men and women, who throw
the corn and straw together into the air with
a wooden shovel, leaving The wind 10 carry
the chaff whilst The seed falls to the ground.
The wheat is then raked into heaps, and left
on the lhreshing- floor until the tthe-gather-
er has taken his portion. LdYards Discove-
ries in the Rains of Nineuah and Babylon.

A new Amusement.

We have sometimes thought it might
prove most useful thing Tor the pale, feeble
and sickly young women of the present day,
il some competent person should get up a
series of amusements for them, of kind fitted
to develop and strengthen their physical pow
ers. Suppose, for example, we should get
up an amusement called, Taking off our
Grandmothers, in which one or several of
these feeble young women should appear in
short gown and pelIicoat, with pals, soap
and scrubbing brush, and play scrubbing the
hoor-mind. only play il, though OF course, to
be effectively played it should be Gone as
vigorously, and as nearly like our grandmoth-
ers who did it IN earnest as possible The
brush should be laid on as hard and the floor
be made as clean, as if done in earnest in
stead of fun, but you are to remember that il
is only TO be fun, fashionable fun, and you
know that great many fashionable anuse-
ments are as fatiguing as scrubbing floors |;
for instance, dancing all night. Only let
some ingenious body contrive to take off ou:
grandmothers f1oor-scrubbng, and our word
for it, many Of our fashionable young women
who don't seem TO have strength enough 10
pick up fan or handkerchief, would go
through the whole process Of scrubbing a
floor and do it well.

A Scene.

Opposite our Office, the other morning,
there occurred queer scene, that il took us
some time 10 get over. Two Of those amin-
biities--a man and a woman--lhat each
morning canvass the streets for fugitive
chips, Goals, or other miscellaneous esfruy
articles of fuel, found their calling 10 lie in
the same beat, and OF course jealous rivalry
at once sprang up between them. The mas
cuine parry had accumulated sundry barrel
hoops and laid them by, while he pushed
along TO gather what he might find ahead
unfortunately for him, his female rival e4-
pied his hoard, and Immediately seized upon
it by force of arms. The masculine returned
Just in season 10 find her in the full and strong
possession of The hoops. An attempt was
made on his part to forcibly seize The stolen
property, but she held on most vigorously
He pulled one away and she the other-ierk,
jerk. He was very angry; she was MS sml-
ing and good humored as basket OF chips.
He released one hand to point out to the
laughing byslanders The spot where the hoops
were hid; she released one hand 10 give en-
phasis to her denial of H. Ii was then pull
and pull again-public sympathy, as il al
ways does, siding with woman, be she right
or wrong. The masculine force began 10
fail, but scorching feminine tongue die
more TO quel him than The strength opposed
when q reinforcement for The weaker par
ty, in the shape of another woman, conclud-
ed the strife, and he backed out ngloriously,
leaving The twain mistresses of the field and
the hoops. Two women opposed TO one
man, in tenderhearted neighborhood, are
too great odds; when il is remembered o n
the authority Of the cid saying that TWO wom-
en- are match for the hat's.his-name.-
Our friend, the street cutler, found il so.-

A Waterloo Yarn.

The world has been listening for years 10
stories Of Waterloo; but it would seem that
like certain other commodity, long since
familiar 10 our readers, there are few more
left Of the same sort An individual who
owned small tavern near the eventful field,
was frequently questioned by visi tors as 10
whether he did not possess some relics OF the
battle, and as invariably and as honestly an

Coming Home.

Glad word! The waters dash upon the
Prov OF the gallant vessel. She stands on the
deck and the winds WOO her rInglets as she
looks anxiously for her lands Of home. In
thought there are warm kisses on her lips,
soft hands on her temples. Many arms press
her 10 throbbing heart, and one voice
sweeter than all the rest whispers, my
child! Coming home Full TO bursting is
her heart, and she seeks the cabin 10 give
her Joy vent in blessed tears.
Coming home The best room is set
apart for his chumber Again and again
have loving hands folded away the curtains,
and shook out the snowy drapery. The vas
es are filled every day with fresh flowers,
and every evening tremulous, loving voices
whisper, He will be here tomorrow, per-
haps.' AT each meal the table is set with
scrupulous care. The newly embroidered
slippers, the rich dressing gown, the study
cap that he will like so well are all paraded
to meet his eye.
That student brother! He could leap the
waters, and fly like bird home. Though
he has seen all the splendor of olden time.
there is bu: one that fills his heart, and that
spot he will soon reach. Sweet home.'
