A correspondent of the Albany Argus
gives the following account of the city of
Lima, South America, and its people:
The city is regularly laid out, with
miserable, narrow sidewalks and streets,
the former just wide enough for two, and
of course somebody must step off, and
usually it is the ladies' There is little
path on either side of the road, where all
persons carrying bundles. are compelled
to walk. This is one of the city laws, and,
if violated, the subject is liable to arrest
and imprisonment. The streets are paved
with stone, and one block has Nicolson
pavement, which is objected to by the
people for the reason that carriages make
no noise in passing over it. 1t is only
within the last four years that the sewers
have been covered, and in many of the
streets on the outskirts of the city they
still remain open. The houses are built
in blocks, usually of two stories, and are
occupied by separate families. The walls
are of mud and brick, and the roofs also
of mud made into kind of plaster, which
a half hours rain would utterly demolish.
The partitions are sometimes very thin,
made of cloth and papered over; and
when the wind blows you may see the
side of your room wave with the motion,
and hear all your neighbours conversation,
for the natives are naturally loud-voiced.
The living rooms, which are large and
high, open upon the yards and into each
other, so that if occasion requires it, the
whole house can be made one room. Bal
comics overlook the street, but they seem
an apartment by themselves, are high, and
curtained to conceal their occupants.
The life of the young ladies is very re-
tired. lit is not considered proper for
them to go into the street unless accompa-
MED by mother or servant. Married ladies
have more liberty; for instance, girl of
fifteen, if she be married las is often the
case,) can chaperone an old maiden aunt
of sixty, while it would be highly i'm
proper for this representative of single
blessedness to venture out alone. The
manner of dress is very different from our
own. Bright colors are worn, and on a
pleasant afternoon you can see all the
colors of the rainbow in the street, and
such profusion of jewelry that am re-
minded of the old nursery rhyme of the
woman who had "rings on her fingers
and bells on her toes" Mantiaus are
worn mostly, though foreigners still hold
to their own round hats, and the natives
are slowly adopting them, for they are
more becoming, and it is not in their
power to withstand anything that adds
to their attractiveness but in the early
morning the streets are filled with these
black-robed figures going to prayers, with
a little negro, about like Rene trudging
on behind, also in mantiau, and carrying
a kneeling mat for her mistress use, as
none of the churches are carpeted. There
is a church for every saint, more saints
than Sundays, and feast days for nearly
every week, when all business has to be
suspended.

Permanent Homes.


1t may be said of us as people, that
we are not yet settled. Homes we have
none as they have in the old world. There
farm passes from one generation to an.
other, and is a settled thing. Associa.
tions cling there of an ancestry that
counts scores in its record. AS much as
can be on earth, this is an abiding-place.
But here with us is no such thing. We
are restless we are not yet settled we
are yet seeking our homes. That is in
consequence of our nascent condition. 1t
becomes us to be active-to seek our for
tunes and establish ourselves. This has
not yet been done, and will not be, till as
nation, we subside into quiet. When
we become satisfied with our lot, we shall
have home.
A home What is a home 1t is some
thing that we take qualification in-some-
thing that will satisfy our children. All!
there is the point-satisfy your children.
Unless this is done there is no home.
We must make our homes I'VE must make
them pleasant-make them so that the
sons will be induced to stay there-will
find something to attract, to keep them
there otherwise they can not be said to
be homes Now, what is wanted?I viii
not pretend to say, in all cases what. 1
need but refer to England, point to the
cottages there, buried-almost literally
buried-with flowers and vines, and in a
landscape that is equally inviting. Here
are homes. So the mansions of the rich
are homes, in the same captivating land.
scape, with the same rural life around
them, and around them forever. Here is
permanence. Nature and art have COM
bined to make this so.
As soon as home is the chief place of
attraction, so soon it is home proper-a
place to stay-else it is not home and
will not be continued. Let parents make
their homes attractive and comfortable,
and their sons will not be wanting to go
to the cities, or going there will not want
TO remain. The old acres, with the old
domicil: will draw more than all else be-
sides, and all will become a possession for
ever. This is what we want. We want
our children to have possession forever
or if necessarily absent, as some must be,
the old home to go to, from the newly &C
CURED possession, which in its turn will
be a home Without home there is
wandering, there is no real rest, no hea-
ven, and no heaven which home is a
near approach to. Home is a nourisher
of the virtues. But wandering life is
wild, heartless life, not favorable to vir-
tue and pure feeling.-Cos1atry Gentle
man

"The elephant trampled me under his
feet the tiger gnawed my flesh with his

Salathiel raised his head and saw the

A strain of heavenly music came down,

perfumed with the fragrance of unseen

of the bruised and crushed Salathiel

ADAMS GRAFTON ON SEWARD.

The Grafton of Charles Francis Adams
ON the life aud character of William III.
Seward will stand as one of the finest eft.
forts of the kind made in this generation.
There has always existed warm personal
friendship between the orator and his sub
ject, and though that relation is easily
traceable in the ardor and ffullness in
which the orator amplifies all the favorable
features of Mr.. Stewards character,
there isyet such judicial fairness and
candor about it all as TO impress upon the
mind of the reader the conviction that
truth was his highest aim. After reciting
fully the great services rendered to the
Republican party by Mr.. Seward and the
claims such services gave him upon the
party, Mr.. Adams says, that when
Mr.. Lincoln assumed the, duties of
President, Mr.. Seward fully realizing the
perils besetting the country and the neces-
sity for harmonious action within the Adj
ministration, voluntarily went to MraLin-
coin and renowned all ambition to become
Chief Magistrate of the nation. By this
self abnegatiop, says his eulogist, the Pres
ident and his chief adviser were thrown
into close and intimate personal relations
and the country had the benefit of the
untrammeled advice and services of the
great statesman.
Mr.. Adams dwells largely upon the con-
dition of the foreign service of the Govern
ment at the time Mr.. Seward became
Secretary of State; of the distrust, Of our
cause by foreign governments owing to
the treachery of Buchanan's Ministers and
Agents and of the zeal and confidence in
spired among the new Representative
abroad by the patriotic and never despair
ing views impaired in Mr.. Stewards State
papers. Hs5s6.H Mus 9iHH 9
Mr.. Adams occupied, a position during
the war where his experience enables him
to speak advisedly and impartially of this
part of Mr.. Stewards pubic life. No one
familiar with the history of those eventful
wears can fail to recognize fully the incom-
narable services he rendered. His good
judgement, ability and tact unquestion-
ably averted foreign complications.
