How he got the Apple.

When the Hon. William now
NJ. c., was boy at school, his bench
was shared by an urchin named Mugs.
The teacher had instituted rule that
any scholar seen eating during school
hours, should come on to the floor and fin
ish eating what he had begun, to the mer-
riment Of his fellowp pupils. One day
Bill brought a fine large apple from
home, and laid it on his desk; and SO
tempting was the fruit to Muggs that,
in consideration Of his best slate pencil,
Bill promised him "taste" when he
should eat it1at recess. Not many min
utes after this Bills attention was called
another way, and Mugs, watching the
opportunity, took the apple and pur-
posely commenced munching it, direct
ly before the eyes Of the teacher. "The
young man who is eating an apple come
on to the floor and finish it," said the
teacher Muggs obeyed with we'll
feigned reluctance, blinking at Bill un-
der the arm that shaded his roguish
eyes, while Bill shook his fist and vowed
vengeance the very first recess.

A Menageri of Indian Fanatics.

At Makloba, the village to which L
am now conducting the reader, there IS
a permanent ecclesiastical menag geri, con-
tanning lions, bears, jackals, camels, hy-
enas, &c, and the animal we met on the
road belonged to this menageri. Here
those who are in search for the connect
inc link between man and the brute
creation can find specimens to their
hearts content Those philosophers
need no longer confne themselves to
the hideous and disgusting monkey spe-
cies for the solution of their theory, for
at the menageri of Makloba they can,
without any hesitation, readily recog-
nize animals after their own kind in the
dog and in the cat, in the bear and in
the boar also. For this extraordinary
contribution to science we are indebted
to the illustrious Asia, the founder OF
the famous African Moslem sect which
goes by his name. Every member ad-
nitted into this society assumes the
character of some animal, and that ami
NAL he initiates and acts at the regular
meetings Of this religious body. The
frenzy, ferocity and madness exhibited
on these occasions are terrific but what
is surprising is, that every animal at the
assembly feeds, and that exclusively up
ON the kind of food for which tits most
remarkable. The leopard and the lion
devour raw meat; the camels. eat the
leaves of the cactus, regardless of its
projecting thorns and the ostrich swal-
lows pieces of iron and coin [ have
never been present at these horrid ban
quets, but I only repeat what is unlver-
sally believed among all Moslems, and
what certain Baron de Kroft, whom |
saw in Africa, and who was member
Of the Asiaweah fraternity, assured me
was perfectly true All the snake
charmers belong to this sect, and in all
their extraordinary exhibitions, before
they even attempt to touch serpent,
they invariably invoke the aid and pro
lection Of their founder, 'Lord Asia. "

Extravagances of New York,

A New York correspondent of the
Providence Journal, after describing
the preparations for the Metropolitan
Fair, proceeds to remark as follows:
In the midst Of this patriotic over-
flow of heart and pocket, there is also
seething current of extravagant folly
setting madly, it would seem, towards
ruin Teo much cannot be said or
written of this insane mania among us.
Where it will end heaven only knows.
During the series Of private concerts
and tableaux vivants, given for the
benefit of the fair, one Of our fashion
able ladies-formerly Boston BELLE
threw open her house on Madison
Square for masquerade party, not in
aid Of the Sanitary Fair, but in sheer
love of sensation and reckless expendi.
ture. No end of money was lavished.
The costumes were unique, dazzling and
gorgeous. Some of them, it is said, dis
gracefully wanting in modest grace and
womanly fitness but then when one is
masked, one can be oblivious to such
effects, I suppose. The distinguished
hostess herself, always fertile in expedi-
ents for outdoing the boldest leader
Of ton, on that patriotic occasion i'm
mortalized her genius, appearing before
her astonished guests with a coronal
of living jets! In the course OF the
entertainment, which was kept up until
six o'clock a. m.-breakfast being duly
servedto the revelers-the wearer of that
remarkable head dress, in most suave
and gracious manner, revealed the secret
of its success. Attached to her hoop
skirt was small gasometer, and con-
Meeting pipe, passing up between the
elaborate braids Of her back hair, secur-
ed the brilliant triumph, at the risk
of the wearer's life IF you are troubled
to believe the story /, | can only say,
,'but pity It's tbs true What shall
become Of nation in its ordeal hour,
if its womanhood finds nothing nobler
for use or adornment than buffoon's
arts Thank heaven, the womanhood
of our nation has risen in beauty and
power to the level of the nations need.

A Rich MANS BEGINNING.-W When
Cornelius Vanderbilt was young man,
his mother gave him $50 of her savings
to buy small sail boat, and he engaged
in the business Of transporting market
gardening from Staten Island to New
York city. When the wind was not IA
vorable he would work his way over the
shoals by pushing the boat along by
poles, putting his own shoulder to the
pole, and was very sure to get his freight
into market in season. This energy al
ways gave him a command of full freights,
and he accumulated money. After a
while he began to build and run steam
boats; and he is now reputed to be
worth more than nineteen, millions of
dollars, after making the Government a
present, as a free gift, of a steamship
that cost 100000. -'.' II
