Port Said the terminus on the Medi-
terannean sea of the Suez Canal, is de-
scribed by a recent visitor as full of
active life, engines of all kinds being
either constructed or repaired at that
place. Port Said is surrounded by wa
ter, being built on an artificial site,
formed of sand, with the sea in front
and a shallow lake on the sides and
rear. The French have secured the
broad streets, and have kept the Arab
quarter of novels at a distance of two
hundred yards from the rest of the
town. The only tolerably good houses
are in line fronting the sea beach,
and consist of public offices and con-
su1ar residences. For the convenience
of the inhabitants, pathways of coal
ashes, which give a firmer footing than
the sand, are laid down in the princi-
pal streets. Not a Vestige of vegeta-
tion exists for miles around, all the
surrounding country being under salt
water and the town being supplied
with drinking water, by means of
three pipes laid from the new fresh
water canal fifty miles off, commune
eating with the Nile.

THE NEW POSTAGE STAMPS.

Preparations are now being made
for the introduction of the new series
of postage stamps. The one cent
stamp is headed with the vignette of
Franklin, the first Postmaster General
under the Colonial system, as well as
the first under the confederation pre-
paratory to the Federal Union. In
the two, three and twelve cent stamps
there is an illustration of the improve
ments in mail transportation, from the
primitive rider on horseback, to the
railroad train for the land service and
the steamships for the ocean service.
The remaining six stamps of the set
form a series of their own, beginning
in the six cent stamps with an accu-
rate copy of the face of Washington,
as shown in Stuart's picture at the Ex-
ecutive Mansion, and ending in the
ninety-cent stamp, with the head of
Lincoln, as significant of new era of
Universal freedom. Two others of this
national series, fifteen and twenty-four
cent, respectively, have miniature cop
les of the Landing of Columbus and
of the Declaration of Independence,
in the rotunda of the Capitol In the
ten-cent stamps the American eagle
appears resting upon the American
shield, and in the thirty cent stamps
are comprised in one group all the ma
tional emblems of the eagle, the shield
and the flag, and presenting, also, the
national cOlOrs, red, white and blue.

AN Expensive BREAKFAST.

There seems to be a diversity of opini-
on about one of Cleopatra's breakfasts,
It was the most costly breakfast that
has ever been served to a single human
being. I will, therefore, tell what I
know about it. After having partaken
of Cleopatra's necklace, Mark Antony
determined to devise the costIiest
breakfast ever given. After several
days of gastronomical meditations, not
having found what he was looking for,
he summoned his cook to his presence,
and told him that, if he could get up a
dainty breakfast tor lady, which
should be composed of as few and as
small dishes as possible, and at the
same time, be most costly, he would
reward him accordingly.
Several weeks afterWard, the cook
entered Mark Antony's study, and
told him that he was ready to serve the
dainty breakfast asked of him, and that
it was composed of one olive only. At
the appointing mt hour, the cook enter
ed the dining room, followed by one
hundred men carrying the olive lin its
artificial enVelOpe) on their shoulders,
They deposit q it on table made for
| the occasion, and fifty carYers were set
to work on il. After several hours of
hard work the triumphant cook placed
the olive before the Egyptian Queen,
who looked at it with amazement, still
with perfect delight.
The olive had been prepared in the
| following WaV: After having been
stoned, it was stuffed with a rich custard
then put inside of boned canary,
which was used to stuff an ortolan.
The latter was placed inside of boned
oriole, which was used to stuff thrush
which thrush stuffed a bOned lark. a
boned snipe was stuffed with the lark
and placed inside of n robin, which was
used to stuff ployer, and which latter
| bird filed quail, which was then
placed inside of a pigeon. The pigeon
| filled a WOOdcOck, the Woodcock a
partridge, the latter a grouse, the
| grouse a pheasant, the pheasant achick-
| en-, the chicken guinea fowl, which
was placed inside of a goose; the goose
filed a turkey, the turkey a swan, the
/ latter an ostrich, which was used to stuff
a sheep, the sheep a calf, the calfan ante
/ lope, the latter pig, the pig deer, the
deer q bear, the bear heifer, the latter
an elk, the elk an OK, the OK a hippo
potamus, the latter an elephant. The
olive was then roasted in its envelope,
which enelope was thrown a way and
| the olive only was served.-PIERRE
