A UscfuI Lady in the Camp.

\ lady of color in Balakaya, and OCCASION
ally in camp, (writes the special correspond
ent of the London Morning Adrertiser in the
Crimea,) is quite an original in her way, and
an amusing specimen Of the adaptability to
circumstances Of the darker specimens of the
genus homo. She is both Miss Nightingale
and Soycr in her way. 4 native of Jamai-
ca, she has travelled extensively on the Amer
ican continent, and has acquired great expe-
rlence in the treatment of eases of cholera
and diarrhGa. Her powders for The latter
epidemic are now so renowned that she is
constantly besct with applications, and it
must be said, to her honor, that she makes
no charge for her powders. She is often
seen riding out to the front with baskets of
medicines Of her own preparation, and this is
particularly the case after an engagement
with the enemy. Her culinary powers are al
so SO very great, that even Seyer told her the
other day she knew AS much about cooking
as himself. Mrs. Scacole is, moreover. a
highly intelligent woman.

The difficulties which attend our relations
with the government Of Denmark, grow out
OF the refusal of our government to submit
to the payment of u certain sum levied by
Denmark upon all vessels entering the Bal
tic by the Sound between the Island of Zea-
land and the coast Of Denmark.
These dues have been collected from the
chips Of all nations, and our government &C :
knowiedged its liability to pay them to Den
mark by the treaty Of 1896. Notice, howey-
er, has now been given, in accordance with
the terms of the treaty, that the United
States will not consider herself bound bv
that stipulation and hence arises the trouble.
Denmark has several West India Islands.
and II our government can kick her into a
fight white Russia, Englaad and France are
engaged in war, we shall stand a pretty fair
chance Of stealing her West India possess
ions.

QrIrs.-An attorney in Dublin having dined
by invitation with his client several DAYS,
pending suit, charged 6s Sd. for each Mt
tendance, which was allowed bv the Master
on taxing costs. In return for this, the eli
ent furnished the master attorney with bill
for his eating and drinking, which the attor-
ney refused to pay, the client brought an ac-
ton and recovered the amount charged. But
ne did not long cxult in his victory: for, in
few days after, the attorney lodged informa-
ton against him before the Commissioner OF
Excise, for retailing wine without a license !;
and not being able to controyert the fact, to
avoid an increase of costs he submitted bv
advice of counsel to pay the penalty, great
part Of which went to the attorney n in
former Notes and Queries.

ing prayers the door Of the room in which
the family reading Of the Bible and prayers
were held, communicating with the kitchen,
was opened about two inches in order that
she might have the pririlege Of hearing
She shut the door. 1t was again opened in
the same manner, when it was again in
dlgnantly shut. The next morning the girl
requested leave to return home, as she was
not accustomed to hearing prayers through
crack, and she did not care to become So

Magistrate that to snake ont n case" tho

GETTING on IN THE WoRLD.-There are three
classes of persons who will be Interested in
the following blunt truths. The law and idle
think they are lies; those who have enamel
pated themselves from some slavish habit, or
otherwise succeeded in self conquest, will ne
knowledge their truth, and wonder some one
never uttered them before the other class,
the ones who think they are getting along
don't know about it, But if the words set
them to thinking they will do some good
There are different ways of getting on in
the world. 1t does not ALWAYS mean making
deal money, or being great man for 9TH
ers to look up to with wonder Leaving of a
bad habit for good one is getting on in the
world to be clean and tidy, instead Of dirty
and disorderly, is getting on to be carefully
and saving instead Of thoughtless and waste
ful, is getting on; to be active and industri-
Gus, instead OF idle and lazy, is getting on !;
to be kind and forbearlng, instead of lima
tured and quarrelsome, is getting on; to work
rs diligently in the masters absence rs in his
presence, is getting on in short when we see
any one properly attentive to his duties. perse-
vering through difficulties, to gain such knowl-
edge rs shall be of use to himself and to 9TH
crs, Offering good example to his friends and
acquaintance, we may be sure he is getting
on in the world. Money is very useful
article in its way, but it is possible to get on
with but small means for it is "a mistake to
suppose that we must wait for great deal of
money before we can do anything. Perscver-
ance is sometimes better than full purse
Many people lag behind, or lose the way alto
gether, because they do not sec the simple and
abundant means which surround them ON all
sides; and it 80 happens that these means are
aids which cannot be bought with money
Those who wish to get ON in the world must
have stock Of patience and perseverance,, Of
hopeful confidence willingness to learn,
and disposition not easily east down by diff
ficulties Or disannainfmcnfs
