American Ladies.

MT. Fulton, of the Baltimore Anaers- co,e, writes: ssHow do the Vienna ladies dress We'll, the ladies of Vii enna wear no bustles, and we may as we'll speak plainly and add that it is because most of them need none. In all other respects they follow the same fashions that the ladies of America adopt. Their dresses and overskirts have all the folds, frills, pleats, points, rufaes, laces and trimmings that are to be found in Paris, and their skirts drag in the dirt of the pavements just as those of the rest of the civilized nations.
 The only difference that we have ob- served in this respect is that they wear all their underskirts with trails also,
 and when the pavements are wet and dirty, they let them draw much more recklessly than the ladies of Baltimore.
 They seldom raise them to avoid a pud- dle, but move on as unconcerned as if their skirts were trailing over velvet e0rratD

Cheap Disinfectants,

One pound of green copperas, cost ing seven cents, dissolved in one quart of water, and poured down water closet, will efectually destroy the foulest smells. On board ships and steamboats, about hotels and other places, there is nothing so nice to purify the air. Sim pie green copperas dissolved under the bed in anything that will hold water will render hospital or any other place for the sick free from unpleasant smells. For butchers stalls, fish markets, slaughter houses, sinks, and where there are unpleasant, putrid gases, dis solve copperas and sprinkle it about, and in Q few days the smell will pass away. If cat, rat, or mouse dies about the house and sends forth an of- fensive gas, place some dissolved cop- peras in an open vessel near the place where the nuisance is, and it will soon purify the atmosphere.

The Cuban Question.

The New York zynaes, which profess es to speak by authority, says the U. S. Government is devoting itself with en- ergy to the investigation of the Virgin jus affair from beginning to end, and will, it is hoped, be able to lay before Congress, at it's opening, all the facts necessary to determine the action of that body. In this the Government is performing it's obvious duty, and taking the only path now open to it. While there are certain well-known principles of international law which it is the part of the Executive to appeal to, and cer- tain rights of American citizens which must be promptly asserted, the proper measures of redress in case of violation must originate with Congress. That the President will have recommenda- tions to submit te that body which will be worthy of his position, and of the honor and dignity of the country, there need be no fear. Meanwhile the case will assume a different phase if, as re- ported, the seizure turns out to have been made in English waters.

CHAPPBD HANDS. - Take common starch and grind it with knife until 1t is reduced to the smoothest powder, put it in clean tin box, so as to have it continually at hand for use. Then, every time that the hands are taken from the suds, or dish-water, rinse them thoroughly in clear water, wipe them, and while they are yet damp, rub a pinch of the starch thoroughly over them, covering the whole surface. The effect is magical. The rough, smart ing skin is cooled, soothed and healed, bringing and insuring the greatest de- gree of comfort and freedom from this by no means insignificant annoyance.

The Soul.

Towards the end of August and the beginning of September, as reported by the Ceylon TSmses, religious contro- versy was in progress there between a Buddhist priest named Megetterwatte and Rev. David Silva, Protestant clergyman. The controversy was held in the open air before thousands of the natives, and was held from day to day. As an evidence of the Buddhist's clear comprehension of what the Christians understand by the soul of man, he wanted to know whether it would not be possible to retain the soul by lock- ing up. 8 dying man in an iron chest from which all air being excluded, the soul could not escape.
