An Indian Village.

zone can have no appreciative idea
of an Indian village, unless he has
been permitted to come across the pral-
rie through hot summers sun and
suddenly discovers one nestled under
the broad shade trees, beside clear
running stream; in green valley.
How pleasant the grass then looks;
how refreshing the bright waters, and
how cosy the tall lodges, with their
shaded verandahs of thickly interwov-
en- boughs.
All day long we had toiled over the
scorching plain, through clouds of
grasshoppers that often struck US in
the face with sufficient force to make
the skin smart for several minutes.
Once we had seen a mirage of beau
tiful lake, fringed with trees and sur
rounded By green pastures, which in
vited us to pursue its f1eeting shadows,
but we we'll knew all about these de-
ceptions by sad experiences, and pushed
steadily on over the burning sands.
The mirages often deceive the weary
| traveller of the desert. Suddenly the
horeseman sees river or lake, appar-
emily, Just ahead Of him, and he rides
on and on, hoping to come up to it
For hours it lies before his eyes, and
then in a moment disappears, leaving
him miles and miles out Of his way

BalIet-DanoIng as a Profession.

Olive Logan, speaking of the ballet
girls, and their traducers, says that
dancing is an at, as well as painting
or sculpture, and that actresses or bai-
let-girls are no more immoral than
ether women, in proportion to their
number, and that she can mention as
many actresses who are virtuous, as
any man can who are not. Principles
of decency and virtue are implanted
in their hearts when pure to the end.
In regard to their salary, she says that
in New York city they get from eight
to fifteen dollars a week, according to
their facility for dancing, which is the
only qualification requisite. She, in
common with all honorable people,
hopes for the time when women, in all
branches of all professions and trades
will be less liable to misrepresentation
of their motives; and when, if girl
desires te be ballet-girl or a cigar
shop tender, it will be perfectly under
stood that she does 50 to earn 1
livelihood, and not from other mo
tives.

Now Brown is more noted for his

than for his piety and hearing his

We heard a gentleman, who has
been in position in our Lancaster
courts during the last forty-eight years,
relating au incident the other day with
in his own recollection, where two per-
sons living in this county, had a suit
about the payment of the value of two
bushels of lime, valued at the time ii
cents per bushel. The result was, that
after being in litigation for four or five
years, going to the Supreme Court,
etc, it was finally decided to divide the
costs between them, which amounted to
nearly $500 each, while the original
sum equally divided, would have
amouted to but eieUen cents edeh.-
