A Turkish Rsthrothal.

An English lady, who was present, sends
an account the betrothal of Khalil Pasha
with the Princess Nazel, daughter Of Mus
tapha Fail, which took place at Constan-
tinople on October Gath She says that
the birdie was dressed with exquisite taste
in blue satin robe, coverd with English
point lace On her neck was diamond
necklace of great value, and on her head
diadem of the same precious stones.
Her superb mass Of light hair and her Ian
gushing black eyes made her one Of the
loyeliest brides imaginable Attendants
spread on the floor rich Cashmere shawls,
and the Princess appeared and advanced
to her mother, whose hands she kissed.
While that ceremony was being performed,
eunuehs threw in the air numerous gold
coins, which were picked up by the slaves
either as memorials or qualifications That
form is the expression Of the hope that the
future spouse may always be fortunate
We we're then introduced into another room,

The Wealth Of Alaska.

A correspondent gives some idea Of A.
laska's wealth, as follows: 'sThen, in the
way of fish, the cod, salmon, hallibut and
herring, present their claims, with score
of others. The Goldfish of the shumaain
Islands is superior to the eastern article,
and the supply Is unlimited A species Of
fish, called the yuliken, Is remarkable for
its Righteousness and as being the fattest

The Eye.

The sculptor Crawford was accustomed
all his life to read lying. To this very
largely physicians attribute the loss of his
eye. Very soon cancer formed on the
other which caused his death.
The great historian Prescott lost his eye
sight when a student, by bit of bread
thrown in sport by fellow-student at the
table. Never be careless in such little
matters. A pair of scissors or a fork,
thrown in sport or anger, has often caused
the loss of an eye; which the wealth of
the world cannot replace.
A friend, who was very anxious to fin
ish set of linen for her brothers, spent
almost winter in fine stitching, sitting up
often late at night over the work, in which
she took great delight The result was,
the nerve of the eye became so injured
that she was obliged wholly to give up
sewing, knitting and reading, under pen
atty of becoming totally blind.
A young lady, who lived but ten miles
by train from school, used to spend the
time in studying certain lesson while she
was riding down in the morning. The
result was severe affliction of the eyes,
which disabled her from studying for a
long time II isalways hurtful to the eyes
to read in train, though We may not see
the bad effects so plainly when it happens
only occasionally. A steady practice like
this young lady's, may produce even worse
results when the system is in bad state.

lids, which twitch and move in most gro.
tesque manner. Don't fancy you can dc
what you please with your eyes, and yet
have them serve You faithfully. Take a.
good care of them as you would of gold

WASHING SILVER WARR.-It seems
that housckeepers who wash their silver
ware with soap and water, as the common
practice is, do not know what they are
about. The proprietor Of one of the Oldest
silver establishments in the city Of Phila-
delphia, says that "housekeepen ruin their
silver by washing il in soap suds, 1t makes

of soap about your silver, then Il will re.

Johp Allen, noted two years ago as the
"wickedes; man in New York" died at West
Perth, N. Y, where his father resides, seve-
ralweeksago. John, twill be remembered,
kept dance house and drinking saloon
on Water street, and turned his establish
ment into place of daily prayer, under
the influence ofseveal gentlemen connected
with the Howard Mission. More than a
year ago he moved into large brick
building, which he had erected at Roosevelt
and Batavia streets, and kept grocery on
the ground floor. The upperstories he rem.
ted to families. At first he attended to
business and prospered; but after the death
of his wife, his old habit of drinking came
over him. He lived in idleness for six
months previous to his death. He leaves

Outdoor Exercise.

Professor Hoppin, of Yale College, in
his work on England, says:
/ took a carriage and rode through
Bushy Park toward Twickenham and
Richmond. The first part of the way lay
through a splendid avenue Of horse-chest-
nut trees, the Park stretching away pleas
antly in green glades on either side. Ii
seemed to be merry time on this mid
summer day. Everybody was out junket-
ing. There were dancing parties, under
the oaks, with all the gypsy apparatus Of
baskets, plates and pans, spread upon the
grass. We met cricket matches going on,
each with its absorbed crowd of spectators
Every little village had its cricket ground
but there are permanent centres, or socie'
ties for the instruction and organization OF
this game, that give the law to the king
dom. Cricket, and football, and quoits
and golf, and bowling, and hurling, and
rowing, and riding and hunting, go far to
make the deep-chested, big-armed, endur
ing English race Are not these sport
preferable to the fashy listlessness will
which many of our fashionable American
youth, both in city and country, CONSUME
their leisure hours. 1t is better to ge
thrown from horse, or have an arm o.
leg bruised with bat or ball, than to have
the whole system and soul eaten outby smok
ing, drinking, and idle indoor dissipation
When youth has grown too lazy to play
football or baseball, or cricket, there Il
not much hope for him, intellectually Of
morally. This love Of energetic sport ant
of outdoor life, runs through all classes. i
gises England her race Of Nestors in th'
field and in the council. An Englisi
family af the wealthier class considers i
the greatest luxury, and the real superior
.ity which wealth gives, to be able to BE-
out Of doors.

oOurtship After Marriage.

We commend the following truthful
words to the attention Of every wife and
husband in the land
There was much more than mere With
cism in the remark of the old bachelor
who had paid attentions to maiden lady
for twenty years, visiting her regularly
every night, when rallied for not marrying
off | were married should have nobody
to court, and no place to go at nigh" "
He had deeply felt the contrast between
his own delicate and ethereal enjoyments,
and the hard, discontented, fretted life, Of
too many married people; and his answer
was irony. He saw there was something
in courtship which too often exhales and
expires after marriage, leaving a cold, dull,
monotonous burden where all was beauty
and buoyancy before. Let us see what
that something is. In courtship nothing
is taken for granted. Both parties are
put on their good behavior. Love keeps
itself fresh and active by constant expires
sion in word and act. But, strange to
say, courtship usually ends with marriage.
Very soon both parties yield to the sense
of possession, and the feeling of security
robs gallantry of motive and extracts the
poetry from the mind. The beautiful
attentions which were so pleasing before
marriage are too often forgotten afterward;
the gifts cease, or come only with the
asking; the music dies out of the voice
everything is taken for granted, and the
love that, like the silver jet of the foun-
tain, leaped to heaven, denied its natural
outlet, ceases to flow altogether. Then
come dull, heavy, hard days, with two
unhappinesses tied together and wishing
themselves apart, and not always content
with merely wishing. This is unnatural
and wrong. What married life wants to
give it new tone and sweetness is more of
the manner as well as the spirit of the
romantic courting time. Very much of
the pleasure Of courtship comes from the
constant attentions of the parties to each
other. Their affection voices itself in all
possible ways. Every sentence is edged,
with compliment aud spoken in tender
tones. Every look is confession, Every
act is a new world in the exhaustless vo-
cabulary of love. Kiss and caress are
parenthetic clauses and gestures in the
dialect of love, and gifts and sacrifices are
the more emphatic expressions of the spirit
no language can fully aticulate and no
devotion declare. And it is the fact that
affection confesses itself continually in look
and act, making the voice musical and the
fingers poetic in their touch and doing,
that makes experience so beautiful the only
Eden many woman ever has on earth.
Love must have expression or it will die.
1t can be kept forever beautiful and blessed
as at the first, by giving it constant utter
ance in word and act That more it is
allowed to flow out in delicate attentions
and noble service, the stronger and more
satisfying and more blessed it will be.
FNN
The house becomes home only when love
drops its heavenly mama in it fresh every
day, and the true marriage vow is made
not once for all at the altar, but by loving
words and helpful service and delicate at
tentions to the end.-Golaen Age.

The death of Viscountess Beaconsfeld
removes one of the most remarkable wo-
men in England Her husband, the Right
Honorable Benjamin Disraeli, enjoys the
honor Of having derived from her not only
the social rank which gratifed his patri-
clan temperament, but the inspiration Of
many Of his political promotions, and her
influence upon him, both in public and
private life, is admitted to have been all
powerful. She was to him at once a
source Of wealth and wisdom, and withal
held the silken rein 50 lightly that no one
can say Of the ex-Prcmier that he spent
the life Of a hcn-pecked husband.

The RIVER NILE.-The bed of the
Nile, like that of the Mississippi, is higher
than the vally through which it passes.
Warburton said: "The Niles bed is a
sort of savings bank, by means of which
the deposits of four thousand years have
enabled him to rise in the world and run
along a causeway of his own 1t is the
only river in the world which runs upward.
Of twelve hundred miles, in undiminished
volume, without tributary stream. II

of even creek, tapped by innumerable
canals and thirsty gardens with which it is
fringed, and absorbed by hot sand banks
and hotter sun, and empties greater bulk
at its mouth than it has between the cata.
racts. The products of Egypt are the gifts
of this stream. The lands on which the
towns and hamlets of Egypt repose in a
foreign SOIL are brought from the far south
by this public carrier. For more than four
thousand years he has faithfully brought
his burden and deposited it at the feet Of
Egypt. The Rameses and the Ptolemies

Sunday School Celebration in England

AT Matlock, in Derbyshire, in the early
part of the afternoon, says Professor Hop
pin, We were called to the window by the
merry sound of music more animated than
harmonious, and found that it accompanied
a long procession of all the boys and girls
of all the Sunday Schools in the neighbor-
hood, with their banners and decorations.
After parading the streets, they passed
through the garden of our hotel, into
green, sloping, mountain meadow, just be-
hind the house. There, with teachers,
pastors, fathers, mothers, and friends, high
and low, they had long pleasant afternoon
of sports. sat also on the grass enjoying
it as much as they. The boys would start
all together from given tree on the side
of the meadow at the bottom of the hill,
run up the hill, around another tree in the
distance, and down to a given point in the
centre Of the field, making course of half
a mile or so. 1t was tough straining work
to get up the steep hill, and | don't know
when / have laughed more heartily than
in watching the maneuvres of the boys at
outwitting and oustripping each other.
After turning the tree, they streamed down
like herd of deer, one slim bright-cheek-
ed boy leading them all in most gallant
style. He, of course, took the prize.
There were also footraces among the girls,
and full as much earnestness and competi-
tion, were shown by them. There were
leaping-bas, leap-frog, and other games,
that brought out skill, strength and activi-
ty. The trial that created the most inter
est was climbing creased pole. Boy
after boy bravely essayed to pull the stream
ers on the top of that taper mast Some
would get up few feet, some half way,
some nearly to the top, and be obliged to
give up in spite of every encouragement
and pelting Of sugar-plums from below.
The writhing motions, the red grinning
faces, the pantaloons pulled up over the
knees, the bold beginnings, and the des-
perate clutchings at the end, were ludice-
rous enough, for nothing in creation is more
comical than boy. One sunny-faced,
sturdy little fellow, nearly did it, but
though within two inches of his object and
straining for dear life, he had to slide down
A good-looking larger youth at last sue
ceeded in pulling the ribbons, amid loud
shouts and cheerings. [The Professor has
not told us of the condition of the boys
clothing, after trying to climb a creased
pole.] A wealthy lady of the parish, l
understood, had provided the afternoons
amusement for the children. The clergy
men present managed all the sports, and
adjudicated some of the prizes, which must
have been very acceptable to some of the
poorer children. This was one instance of
many which | have noticed in England, of
very cheerful and natural tone of relig-
ious feeling. am certain that we some
times war against nature and grace in
