NOVEMBER, the eleventh month of
the Julian, was the ninth in the year of
Romulus, whence It received its name.
Our Saxon ancestors called it Blot
Aondth, "blood month, the month OF
sacrifice" because at this season the
heather Saxons made provision for
winter, and offered in sacrifice many of
the animals then killed. Some notion
OF the vast extent to which the opulent
provided themselves and their retainers
at this season. may be formed from the
contents of the larder of the elder
spenser, in 1897, which, in the month
of May, contained "the carcasses of
eighty sailed beeves, five handred ba-
cons and six hundred muttons," the
relics of his winters provisions. Mar
tlemas or Martinmas beef, cured about
the festival of Saint Martin, the 1lth of
this month, was n provision, formerly
well, and, in some places, still known.
The Spanish proverb, "His Martinmas
is coming, we shall be all hogs alike"
alludes tothe slaughter of swine at this
period.

FRENCH OPINION OF IRISH GIRLs.-A
gallant GauI, NJ. Felix Belly, ofthe Con-
stitutioneUc, who has been wandering
through ireland, has found some things
prettier even than her green valleys
and far-famed lakes. Hereafter we
may look for place given to Ireland
in the columns of the ConstitudoHeELc:
The most remarkable element, the
richest, and certainly the most full of
life, of this land so life full, is the popu-
lation itself. No European race, that
of the Caucasus excepted, can compete
with it in beauty. The Irish blood is
of IL purity and distinction, especially
among the females, which strikes all
strangers with establishment. The
Transparent attraction which is the at
tribute ofon in a thousand, is here the
general rule. The daughter offhe poor
man, as well as the fine Indy, possesses
an opal milky tint, the arms OF n
statute, the foot and hand of IA duchess,
and the bearing of queen. In the
wretched streets of the olden quarters
OF Dublin, the most ideal ytintings the
pencil would grow pale before the
beauties ofthe children, and in the COM
pact crowd which each day occupies
Merton Square, there is certainly the
most magnificent collection of human
beings it is possible to meet. Blondes
with black eyes, and bruuettes with
blue, are by no means rare. The race
is as strong as 1t is handsome, as vigor-
Gus as it is charming. The girls of
Connemara, with their queenly shout
ders and eyes fire, would put TO shame
at this day, those daughters of the East
from whom they are said TO have de-
sCended.

The Washington Star says
"rhe cable informs US that hereafter
United States 10 40 bonds VIII be quo
ted ON the London Stock Exchange, ana
vye learn that already purchases of this
cIass OF securities have been made for
shipment, The interest on these bonds
il only five per cent; but il is payable
in coin, and even the 'repudiatoTs' con-
cede that the bonds must be redeemed
in coin at maturity. The law itself
provides for this in express terms. II
is not long since these bonds were sell
ing in New York at about ninety cents;
but of late, especially since it was
claimed that our 5 20's should be paid
off in currency, they have steadily ad-
vanced, until now they are firmly held at
u small premium. We prediCt for them
a still further advance, and we see no
good reason why they should not before
long be worth as much in the market
AS the five per cents, which mature In
1874, now selling at about one hundred
and ten. AT present rates we think
these bonds are quite as profitable TO
hold as any others. Thus a person
buys 100000 of 1881 six per cents. al u
cost OF say SIZE, 800 Of course he only
receives an interest of Sd, 900 per auuum,
which is but 5H per cent. on what his
bonds have cost him, and when the
bonds mature he actually loses his en-
tire premium of 80, 500, which is equal
to one eighth of the face of the bonds,
and reduces the interest for the whole
time to less than i've per cent. upon the
amount of the Investment. If these
figures are reliable, and 1t is quite easy
to verify them, the time would seem to
have come for further issue of these
securities, or others of like character,
by which large annual saving to the
Government would be effected"

OLD MAIDs.-A spriGhtly writer ex-
presses his opinion of old maids in the
following manner:
I am inclined 10 think that many of
the satirical asperSions cast upon old
maids tell more to their credit than is
generally imagined. Is a woman re-
markedly neat in her person? She will
certainly be an old maid. Is she par
ticularly reserved toward the other sex?
"She has all the squeamishness of an
old maid" Is she frugal in her ex-
peuses aud exact in her domestic con-
Germs? "She is cut out for an old maid"
And IL she is humane TO the animals
about her, nothing can save her from
The appellatiOn of an "old maid" In
short, have always found that neat
ness, mOdesty, economy, and humanity
are the never failing characteristics of
that terrible cTeature-"old maid"

GEORGE D. PRENTIcE.-The following
sketch OF George D. Prentice, the dis
tinguished editor of the Louisville
Journal, is from the New York Erening
Gazette, and presents very accurate
delineation OF its subject: when at
work in his private office, in an old
wooden jacket and loose, well-worn
slippers, and seen shutfling sullenly
about, he reminded one more of dys-
peptic tailor than popular poet and
a distinguished journalist. He is not,
emperamentally, sanguine or cheer
full man, and is addicted, especially
since age has come upon him, to fits of
moroseness and gloom. Sometimes he
will not speak to his most intimate
friends for hours, and appears anxious
to avoid society of all kinds. Gener-
ally he is "A severe student, and when
travelling is fond of reading, and in the
habit OF taking notes on the margin of
the papers which he carries about in
his pockets. From such notes, when
he WAS at home he would dictate edito-
rails and paragraphs, and frequently
make brilliant article out OF some
well-worn scrap he had exhumed from
his garments"

THE LIPE AND BATTLES OF Carl
BALDI-By Geo. Alfred Townsend.
american NetoS Company, N. Y.
This is brief story OF great man
and great events, and it is most attract
lively placed and told by its enthusiasts
tic and accomplished author. We copy
an extract of the courtship and mar
rage during Garbaldi's strange and
eventful life in South America, where
he passed fourteen years. But ifpossi-
BILE greatly more eventful has been the
life of the great chieftain in his own be-
loved Italy. We could wish perhaps a
cooler head, more cautious master,
and better calculator OF results than
Garibaldi, but in magnetic power, in
inspirations for liberty, in doing and
daring he has never been excelled:
'In the city of Laguna, he looked up
at "A window one day by chance, and
met the gaze of a young girl. 1t made
him alter the rule of his life, which was
to know no wife but Italy, and no
children but her soma. He was already
beloved by this brave girl; and when
he told her that his mission would not
permit the quietneSs of fireside life,
tight at his side. Therefore they were
married, and woman won in Anita a
place in the fame of Garibaldi. He
speaks thus beautifully of their first
campaign:
"AmOng the many sufTerings OF my
stormy life | have not been without
happy moments, and among them I
count that in which, AT the head of IL
few men remaining to me, / first
mounted and commenced my march
with my wife at my side, in IL career
which had always attractions for me,
even greater than the Seas. 1t seemed
to me OF little Importance that my en-
tire property WAS that which 1 carried,
and that l was in the service of II poor
Republic unable to pay anybody"

for a woman, il was like that of the

REv. NOAH HUNT ScHENcK, D. D.,
now rector of ST. AIMS Church, in
Brooklyn, and editor of the Protestant
Caurchmdn. writing from London while
the Pan-Anglical Conference was in
session, says: "The American eye
has grown quite familiar with the
Lord Bishop prefix to our American
prelstes. The bishops of New York
and Illinois have adopted the Episcopal
dress, of cassock-shirt and knee
breeches, for official occasions, while
the Assistant Bishop OF Indiana has ac-
cepted the cassock-shirt as part of his
daily costume. We do not observe that
any have adopted as yet the Episcopal
looped hat" The Pan-Auglical Synod
has brought little or no credit to the
American Episcopal Church. The out
come of the conference seems, accord
ing 10 DR.. Schenck's letter, to have
been TO large extent a mere question
of ecclesiastical wardrobe. II would
have been cheaper, and in better taste,
to have imported from England a
church tailor.
