From every quarter to the sight,

And calls 1t cheap besides.

And casts around his eyes;
Then curls his lip-the rogue-then frown,
And then looks wondrous wise.

Shortly after the accession OF
James, /, when Scotch gentlemen
were beginning to feel ct home In
London, Lord Hardwood gave q din
ner party, to which were invited u
number Of courtiers and officers, both
civil and military. After the bottle
had circulated o few times, General
s., an English trooper and reck-
less Don vivunt, arose and said. "Gen-
tlemen, when am I'm my cups, and
the generous wine begins to warm my
blood, have an absurd custom Of
railing against the Scotch. Know
ing my weakness, / hope no gentle
man In the company will take IL
amiss." He sat down, and High
land chief, Sir Robert Bleakie, of
Blair Atholl, presenting a front like
an old battle-wOrn tower, quietly
arose and remarked: Gentlemen,
when am In my cups, and the gen.
erous wine begins to warm my blood,
II hear man rail against the
Scotch, have All absurd custom Of
kicking him at once out of the com
pany. Knowing my weakness,
hope no gentleman will take II
amiss." 1t may be needless to add
that General S. did not on that
occasion suffer himself to follow his
usual custom.

The IIoop-ykirt Business.

The hoop skirt business is repre-
sented as lively, the present demand
exceeding the capacity of the manu-
facturers. The dizziness and stagna-
ton In the trade since 1858 has scat
tered the girls, who were 80 numerous
and skiliful at the work, and those
now secured for this industry are all
beginners, and consequently mucl,
time Is lost in perfecting the labor.
Another and yet more surprising
trouble is the scarcity of female labor.
Not only are all the small ware man.
ufacturers cramped and annoyed in
this respect, but some of the largest
cotton mills are forced to n serious re
stricion Of their production from this
cause. Henceforth, II fashion decides
upon the handiwork of women, the
votaries of the ticklegoddess must sub
stantially acknowledge the mission
of the weaker sex, and pay better
prices for their labor.
