and commenced taking 1t In March, and followed on

In conclusion will add, when was enduring such

A sisters Love.

There is something inexpressibly
touching in sisters love. Her heart
is realm of pure and earthly affection,
and happy should that brother be to
whom she clings through the changing
scenes of the blightiDg world. She has
been his companion in childhood; she
has watched the development of his
mind and person; she has admouished
him when wrong and smiled upon his
triumphs; she has peopled his mind
with beautiful treasures of her own; she
has taught him those virtues which will
render him a useful member OF society,
prepare him for death, and embalm his
memory when he has passed away.
Sooner can you bind the free wind than
seal up the springs OF such mysterious
affections. They will flow on and the
desert cave forget their progress. And
as sorrow and misfortunes strip from
life its charms and dreams, there is one
recollection that will come like music to
a brothers heart--that will thrill upon
its darkened and troubled depths with a
strange yet sweet melody. and bring up
scenes Of home and childhood long un-
remembered. 1t is the recollection of a
sisters love.

Auction I'm Olher Countries.

Auctions in different countries are
curious subjects of study. In an auc-
ton in Spain, for instance, everything
accords with the national temper There
is no noise. Conversation is prohibited.
The auctioneer is held to his description
of goods. A bid is made; he of the
hammer repeats it; silence follows;
kanother bid, another announcement of
it, and another silence all as serious
and solemn as a prayer meeting, until
the mallet falls.
An auction room in France is, on the
contrary, a perfect Babel. In all noisy
Paris there is nothing so noisy apd
boisterous as st. Antoine vendor where
gamins and ch'ffoniers and old clio ="
Jews contend for cheap bargains. There
can be no greater contrast to this hub
bub than that which is presented by the
dull decorum of an auction sale in
Amsterdam or Rotterdam. There
Mynheer auctioneer sits behind a table
smoking his pipe. He states terms of
sale, waits for a bid, makes no haste,
creates no excitement, watches no coun-
tenances, takes no mods or winks. Be-
fore him stands box filled with tapers.
If there is too long delay he lights one
of these in silence, and thrusts it on a
spindle fixed in the table. When itgoes
out the last bidder takes the article.
There is curious old custom at Bill
lIngsgate-the great and well known fish
market in London-of selling fish from
the boats as they arrive every morning,
by an auction of reduction" as it is
called. Every boat load is sold alto
gether. Twenty-Five or thirty sales are
going on at once. The reduction
auction always occurs in the early
morning, sometimes before light. Men
and women Unfortunately act as auc-
tioneers and buyers, also men and wo-
men walk up and down the docks scruti-
nizing the cargoes. A bell rings and
the sales commence. In large, hat
gondola are bloaters, owned by the
strapping fsbwoman, who now begins to
brawl to the buyers on shore as she
stands on the bow, Here's your bloat-
ers, fine, large Yarmouth boaters; five
shillings cattle Five shillings Well,
four and tenpence be it thenl Four and
ten Four. and ten -Four and nine,

TuE Philadelphia Bulletin ISLANDERS
the South in the following editorial:
"The intention of the Southerners who
. are attempting by committing outrages
upon the blacks, to stir them up to resis-
lance. is TO manufacture some ground
for talk about war of races and to
cause a general political movement
among the whites for the purpose of OBJ
tanning the supremacy, and OF deterring
Congress frem passing the civil rights
bill. But from the character of some of
the stories that come from the South the
most likely result of these infamies is
the re enactment of the Ku-Klux laws.
There appears to be throughout the
South common purpose to begin again
the crimes which made those laws neces-
sary in the first place; and the organiza-
ton of the White League is one Of the
indications Of the existence of the pur-
pose" The Bulletin is one of those
Northern fanatical journals which, ow-
ing to its hatred of the South, gives cir
culation to such falsehoods as are con-
tanned in every line of the above.
