CHAaAcfrs OF DAsfos-His person and

CHARAcfER OF DANToS.-His person and
his eloquence were in keeping with his mind
and character. We figure him always after
the pattern of Bethlehem Gabor, as Goodwin
describes him; his stature gigangic, his hair
dead black, a face in which sagacity and
fury struggled for the mastery-a voice Of
thunder. His mere figure might have saved
the utterance of hisIwatch word, I'VE must put
our enemies in fear" His face was "reign
of terror" His eloquence was not of the IN
.ellectual, nor of the rhetorical cast. 1t was
not labored with caro- or moulded with art.
1t was the full gushing utterance OF mind
seeing the real merits Of the case In glare OF
vision, and announcing them in tone of alb
solute assurance. He did not indulge in long
arguments or elaborate declarations. His
speeches were Cylopean cries, at the sight of
the truth breaking, like sun, on his mind
Each speech was peroration. His imagina-
tion was fertile, rugged and grand. Terrible
truth was sheathed in terrible figure. Each
thought leaped into light, like Minerva, armed
with bristling imagery. Danton was true
poet, and some of his sentences are the strcng-
est and the most characteristic utterances amid
all the wild eloquence the revolution produced,
His curses are of the street, not of Paris, but
of Pandemonium; his blasphemies were sub
lime as any heard in the trance OF Sllician
seer. belched up from fallen giants through the
smoke of Etna, or like those which made the

brilliance, the rapid rise and rapid subsistence

UsUEFUL INFoRNATIoN,-Th washerwo
men Of Holland and Belgium, so proverbially
cleau. and who get up their hnnen so beauti
fully white, use refined borax as n washing
powder, instead of soda, in the proportion Of
large handful of borax powder to about ten
gallons of boiling water-they save lin soap
nearly half. All the large washing establish
ments adopt the same mode. For laces, cam
brics etc., an extra quantity of<the powder is
used, and for cfinolines Strong solution is
necessary. Borax, being a neutral salt, does
not in the slightest degree injure the texture
of linnen; its effect is to soften the hardest wa
ter. and therefore it should be kept on every
toilet table. TO the taste il is rather sweet,
is used for cleansing the hair, is an excellent
dentri6ce, and in hot countries is used in COM
binatfon With tartaric acid and bi-carbonate
of soda as a cooling beverage. Good tea can
not be made with hard water; all water may
be made soft by adding tea spoonful of bo-
rax powder 10 an ordinary sized kettle of wa
ter, in which it should boil The saving in
the quantity of tea used will be at L. asst one
fifth. To give TO black tea the favor ofgreen
tea, add single leaf from the black currant

SUDDEN Death IN Full DREss IN CAR
RIAGE.-Ihe Paris correspondent of the Neu
Orleans Pitdyune says:-At this season one
hears almost every day of the house warming
Of villa in some neighboring village, as the
entrance into possession of rural residence
furnishes one of the best pretexts possible for
giving a party. A brillisnt festival Of this
sort was given three days ago on the Fontain-
bleau railway; and as it was rather more for
NAL than most of the entertainments given at
this season of the year, the ladies were oil in
full dress. Among the guests was brilliant
young wife of Normandy. At 2 o'clock in the
morning she quilted the rural lodge to return
to Paris, and as she wore one of the steel cages
and the number Of petticoats now fashionable,
she occupied the carriage alone, there was not
room in it for another and her husband follow
ed in brougham.
At three o'clock in the morning they reach
ed Paris. Her husband got out of the broug-
bem and opened the carriage door, calling her:
Pauline Pauline here we are at home 7"
There was no answer He called again and
louder than before, and he shook her by the
you unwell. dear? What is the matter ?
Speak," He could gain no reply. Taking
down one of the carriage lamps, he entered
the carriage and found his wife dead She
had been suffering from an affection of the
heart, but the doctors said it was cured and
now coming from ball in gay ball attire, with
flowers on her head, and rouge on her cneeks,
death had come all unawares, before she could
speak, while she lay dreaming of balls and all
the follies of the world. Never does death
seem more hideous than when it surprises its
victim arrayed to play a part in the frivolous
of the hour!

A FREE Pass WELL EARsMp.-A Miss
Drave has been presented with free pass, of
indefinite duration, over one of the Pennsylva-
MIA railroads. Being at home alone she saw
that a tree had fallen on curve of the road, on
the opposite side of the river, and that the cars
without warning, would inevitably be thrown
off into the river. She crossed in skiff and,
as the train approached, succeeded in stopping
it, thus saving, in the opinion of those on
board, all the lives on the train. Instructions
have been given, whenever she travels on the
train, to stop for her at such point as she finds
most convenient for reaching her home. Who
shall say now that corporations have no souls !?
