CHINESE HAND-sHAKING.

The great men who are forced to en-
dure swollen hands and weary arms
because several thousands of their adj
mirers insist on shaking hands with
them, will be glad to introduce here
the Chinese custom. A writer says:
The Chinese mode for shaking hands
is peculiar and l cannot help thinking
characteristic. Instead of grasping
heartily each man his brothers hand,
after our Anglo-Saxon fashion, the
Celestial shakes his own. Whether t
be that he is afraid to trust it in an
others custody or whether he regards
it as a thing too good for contact
with his neighbor's palm, know not,
but if there is any hand shaking to do,
in salutation, he will do it himself.
Advancing with his fingers folded on
his palms, and his two hands Joined
together and extended toward, he will
shake them at you and cEinschin you
as much as may be necessary. But he
will not touch your hand, nor will he
let you touch his own.
Once, indeed, as | remember, made
one of a party of officers who " ere cal
ling on the Project of Foo-chow and,
being little confused by the sudden
ness with which my coolies tipped me
forward from my sedanehair and land
ed me in his Excellency's presence, and
seeing him with hands presented to-
wards me, grasped his hand cordially
and shook it vigorously.
Chinese politeness is provsrbial; and
thePerfect maintained his.composureIas
placidly as posssble-but it was se-
rious trial 10 him, and he was manifest
ly gratitied to get possession of his
hand again when / released it. All
through che interview he regarded me
with n sense of injury. And do not
doubt that, since then, he has been
more careful of his hand than ever.

THE STRENGTH OF THE WHITE .AND
BLACKS IN VIRGINIA..

The total population of Virginia, as
now bounded, was in 1860, twelve hun
dred and twenty-thousand, Q,220,0OO)
of which $4,000 were whites, and 527,-
600 calored-say 166, 900 majority of the
white population, That would give a
majority of white voters Of near 81, 900,
BY the regular increase of population
from 1860 to 1869, the ratio of the two
races now would be majority OF whites
near 100000, and of white voters, ma
jority of $4,000. Assume 10000 to be
distranchised by acts of Congress. we
shall have clear majority OF $4,000
white voters-as the Registration will
show, if fully and fairly made.
We assume that the loss of whites and
blacks by emigration, the casualties
and the results of war, was in the same
proportion to each race. And thai is
very favorable statement for the blacks.
1t is also very reasonable allowance
of equal proportions received by the i'm
migration of bona tide settlers and car
pet-baggers. You can then lose Is 900
white native-born voters, and yet beat
the consolidated negro vote anl the car
pet-baggers. This is certain. But the
whites can sullenly fold their arms, re-
fuse to vote, and let the negro put his
heel upon the white mans neck and hiss
into his ear, ''Sic Semper Tyrannis 20

HEARING OF THE BLIND,

The blind boys in school know the
step of their school fellows with unerr-
ing certainty. Thus a boy having
missed his friend at play, he watches
for him as the rank file past, walking
round the green sward, or marching
into dinner. He hears the tramp Of
his.friend amid the din and scuffle of the
other boys long ere he reaches him,
and he pounces upon him with the GER
tainty as though he saw him. Indeed
the blind speak of hearing as seeing.-
If from the sound, they know that the
master has left the room, they say, 81
saw HIM go out" 1t is curious fact
that the bind people never run against
each other, Thus when playing priso-
ner's 5ase-a game which leads to some
rough Jostling, even among the boys
gifted with eye sight-these sightless
little fellows rarely come into collision
with each other, Each boy, when he
enters the workshop in which he is em-
ployed in basket making-a room twen-
ty feet wide l'y one hundred and fifty
feet in length, marches up to his own
seat and box, never by any chance mis-
taking his place. If they are in search
OF friend, and happen to call out his
name III an empty room, they never
stop for an answer, their sense of hear
ing telling them that there is no one
in it,

ed that the prisoner was playing che

his broadcast person, he thus addressed

NINETEEN HUNDRED YEARS AGO.

"When Lucretius sought to banisf
the supernatural from the universe, hs
was compelled to employ much inge.
nulty In endeavoring to explain by {
natural law, why a miraculous fouatair
near the temple of Jupiter Ammon wa:
hot by night and cold by day, and why
the temperature of wells was higher in
winter than in summer. Eelipses were
supposed by the popula& to foreshadow
calamity; but the Roman soldiers be-
lieved that by beating drums and Gym
balls they could cause the moons disk
to regain it brightness. In obedience
to dreams. the great Emperor Angus
tus went begging money throughout
the streets OF Rome, and the historian
who records the act himself wrote to
PlIny, entreating the postponement of
a trial. The stroke of lightning was an
augury, and its menace was directed
especially against the great, who cow
cred in abject terror during thunder
storm. Augustus used to guard him.
self against thunder by wearing the skin
of sea calf. Tiberius, who proiessed
to be complete freethinker, had great
er faith in laurel leaves. Caligula was
accustomed, during thunder storm, to
creep beneath his bed. During the
games in honor of Julius Caesar, a COM
et appearing for seven days in the sky,
the people believed it to be the soul of
the dead, and temple was erected in
its honor. Sometimes we find this
credulity broken by curious inconsis-
tencies of belief, or seml-rationalistic
explanations. Iivy, who relates with
perfect faith lnnumerab,e prodigies, has
observed, nevertheless, that the more
prodigies are believed, the more thew
are announced. Those who admitted
most fully the reality of the oracles, oc-
casionally represented them as natural,
contending that prophetic faculty was
innate in all men though dormant in
most; that it might be quickened into
action by sleep, by pure and ascetic
life, or in the prostration that precedes
death, or In the delirium produced by
certain yapors; and thev added, that
the gradual enfeebling of the last was
the cause OF cessation of oracles.-
Earthquakes were believed to result
from supernatural alinterpositions, and to
call for expiatory sacrifices, but at the
same time they had direct natural ante
cedents. The Greeks believed that thew
were caused by su5terranean waters,
and they accordingly sacrificed to Po-
seldom. The Romans were uncertain
as to their physical antecedents, and |
therefore inscribed no name on the al |
tar OF explanation. Pythagoras is said |
to have attributed them to the strug-
Cling OF the dead. Pliny, after long
discussion deaided that they were pro-
duced by air forcing itself through tis-
sues OF the earth. but he Immediately |
proceeds to assert that they are inva-
rlably the precursors of calamity. The
same writer, having recounted the tri-
umphs of astronomers in predicting
and explaining eclipses, bursts into an
eloquent apostrophe to those great men
who had thus reclaimed man from the
dominion of superstition, and in high
and enthusiastic terms urges them TO
pursue still further their labor in break

HORSES FOR FARM WORK.

A mong the different breeds of horses
now propagated in this country, evert
class of business can select that which
is best calculated to perform the SER
vices required by its owner. The gen.
| tlemen OF leisure and the Medical Pro-
| fession require horse, not too large,
but of good bottom wind and speed.
| The farmer requires horse of great
weight with all the Qualities above
named, except speed-extra speed. IL
a farmers horse can trot six miles an
hour to light wagon, without extra
effort he is fast enough.
At heavy draft, weight adds strength
without extra effort of the m1scles-so
that the heavy horse before a plough
moves on with ease by virtue of his own
weight against the collar; while the
lighter horse must strain every nerve
and muscle to do the same work. This
excltes, irritates, and worries him and
he is not so attentive to word or line.
This over exertion soon begins to tell
upon him and his value Is deprecated,
The same remarks will apply in draw
ing loaded wagon up grade.
1t must then be the interest of farm.
ers in breeding horses for their own
use, to select such animals to breed
from as will produces :he desired result.
Here the Percheron, more familiarly
known as Norman, is candidate for
the farmers favor, and deserves to be
better known and more appreciated.
The Percheron horse no doubt, at this
day, stands first among the draft breeds
of the world. The interest in this
breed has greatly increased of late a.
mong farmers, and they are the best
judge of their own wants.
The Conestcga horse has weight, but
is very deficient In actiUn-sluggish in
his movements, and not celebrated for
bottom or endurance. This breed of
horses.is principally confined to one To-
callty, Lancaster Co., PAL.
At the prices for which good horses
sell, fine opportunity is offered to
large farmers to raise horses OF popular
breed for sale. Even small farmers
raise one or two year with good
profit. -Stock Journal.

THE TAX BILL.

Somebody proposes the following
new amendments to the tax bill:
For kissing pretty girl, one dollar.
For kissing homely one, two dol
lars--the extra amount being added
probably for the mans folly.
Nor ladies kissing one another, two
dollars. The tax is placed at this rate
IN order TO break up the custom alto
gether, it being regarded as piece of
inexcusable absurdity.
| For every Irritation, ten cents.
| Every young man who courts more
| than one girl is taxed five dollars.
For courting in the kitchen, twenty
| five cents.
Courting in the parlor, one dollar.
Counting in romantic place, five dol
lars, and fifty cents thereafter.
Seeing lady home from church,
twenty-five cents.
Going from church without accom-
panying young lady, five dollars.
Seeing lady home from the Sewing
Society, five cents-the proceeds to be
devoted to the relief of disabled army
chaplains.
For ladies who paint, fifty cents.
For wearing low-necked dress. one
dollar.
For each curl on lady head, above
ten, five cents.
For any unfair device for entrap-
ping young men in matrimony, five dol
lars.
For wearing hoops larger than eight
feet IN circumference, eight cents for
each hoop.
Old bachelors over thirty are taxed
ten dollars, and banished to Utah.
Each pretty lady is to be taxed from
twenty-five cents to twenty-five dol
lars; she is to fix the estimate of her
own beauty. 1t is thought very large
amount is to be realized from this pro-
vision.
Each boy baby, fifty cents.
Zach girl baby, ten cents.
Families having more than eight ba-
b;es are not to be taxed; and for twins
a premium of forty dollars will be paid
out of the funds accruing from tax on
old bachelors.
Each Sunday loafer on the street
corners or about church doors to be
taxed his value, (which is about two
cents.
