A Horned Womanr

SOMEBODY who has seen whereof he
speaks, writes from Larnaca, in the isl
and of Cyprus, to the New York Obssr-
vor, an elaborate account of woman HV-
ing at Liyadia, in Cyprus, Bho has horns
growing out Of her head
at once dispatched a secret agent,
and succeeded after few days in obtai-
ming sight Of this most woildsrfal oor-
nigerous creature.
She told me, vipa roce, that she had
suffered greatly from this aflictioR, and
would never have revealed it, but for a
vision she had lately, when an old man
with silVery hair and long flowing beard
presented himself to her, leaning on a
crutoh, and warned her not to conceal it
longer-that it was from God apo tor
THeOu, and that Hs would af8ict her even
more if she concealed it any longer. She
at once confessed to the priest, and thea
reVealed her mysterious condition.
She has one horn on the side of her
head three or four inches long, and an
inch in circumference, besides three OF
four ooruicles on other parts Of the head,
one Of which she says she broke off. 1t
is now in possession Of the French doc
tor of this place.
These horns are attached to the skin
of the head, and not to the bone, resem-
bling in texture and appearance the horns
of goat-not the silver horn of the
Druze woman, but as much a part of her
as her hair or head.
She has been visited by nearly all the
consuls and Europeans in this place, some
Of whom are making an effort to secure
her for exhibition in Europe.
Another letter to a gentleman Of New
York says that one of the horns is equal
in size to an ordinary rams horn. The
Italian consul at Cyprus offered the Wo-
wan one hundred thousand francs to go
to Paris.

TROOPS ENGAGED.
Come and See Me-


NEVER take come and see me as a
phrase meant in earnest unless it is ao-
companied with date An invitation
without circumstance is no invitation
at all Depend upon it if any man OF
woman desires your company, he or she
will appoint time for your visit. Call

drop in as you are passing, make Us a
visit whenever you have an hour or two
to spare, are social indctfnitisms by which
men of the world understand that they
are not expected to do the thing request
ed.
When people wish to be cheaply po-
lite there is nothing like this kind of
vagueness. The complimentary small
change Of society should always be taken
at large discount. It is never worth
its face, or anything like it. Yet it is
convenient medium of exchanges for
all that, and heavy debts of gratitude
that ought to be requited in better coin,
are often paid with it. People who have
more polish than principle use it lavish
ly-plain, blunt, honest men sparingly,
or not at all.
Whoever makes a friendly visit to a
fashionable house on the strength of a
mere come and see me viii be likely
enough to fud that the family circle
which he has drOpt into By request, is as
ungenial as the arctic circle, and to leave
it With a chilly feeling about the heart
that will prevent him from venturing
into the samo high latitude thereafter.
But when a whole-souled fellow, whom
you know to be your friend, grasps you
vigorously by the hand and says-'Come
and dine with me to-day-dinner on the
table at FIVE o'clock-be sure to come
we shall expect you'-go if you can, and
you will be all the better for it both il
mind and body. One likes to meet fri
ends at the hospitable bOard-one's Owl
or theirs, it matters not which-but {

Life the World Over.

WHEN Peter of CortonO was engaged
on picture for the Royal Palace of Pitti,
Ferdinand II particularly admired the
representation of weeping child.
"Has your majesty" said the painter,
q mind to see how easy it is to make
this child laugh?"
And suiting the action to the word,
the artist merely depressed the corner Of
the lips and the inner extremity of the
eyebrows, when the little ur2hin seemed
in danger of bursting his sides with
laughter, who in a moment before SEEM

If this be true in the world Of living

Woman's Curiosity.

ANOTHER story of the President, too
good to be lost, has leaked out. 1t seems
he had accompanied a young lady to one
of the hospitals in the capital, where the
sympathizing creature as in duty bound,
became interested in a wounded soldier.
To all her inquiries as to the location of
his wound, however, she could only get
one reply, thus:
My good fellow, where was you hit?'
At Antietam.'
Yet, but where did the bullet strike
your
'At Antietam.'
But where did it hit your
At Antietam.'
Becoming discouraged, she deputized
Mr.. Lincoln to prosecute the inquiry,
which he did successfully.
Upon his rejoining her, she was more
curious than ever, when the president
taking her hands in his, said in his most
impressive style:
My dear girl, the bail that hit him.

When used, it should be warmed, and all

persons cOnourred in protesting against
the doctrine of recognition, viz: Messrs.
