tracted courtship which an ingenious
novelist might easily convert into a
pretty romance.
About forty or fifty years ago, be-
fore the suppression Of converts in Por-
tugsl, a young lady was engaged to be
married. For seme reason or other, the
marriage did not come of, and the girl
was placed in Benedictine nunnery at
0porto. Soon after came the abolition
of converts; but, while the monasteries
were absolutely dissolved, and the monks
scattered, the nuns who we're already in
mates of religious houses were suffered
there to remain. The young lady, ac-
cordingly, on the suppression occurring,
did not leave the Benedictine convent.
1t is to be presumed, however, that the
rules of this particular establishment
were somewhat relaxed, for the young
gentleman who had been engaged to this
nun was observed to take his constant
stand before the barred window OF his
former mistress cell, while she would
become visible behind the grating. Here
the romance have imagined would per.
maps rhtner lAck lneluenJ, ana, except
in masters hand, might grow monot-
onous. for this hopeless courtship lasted
no fewer than four-and-thirty years, till
a bowed and middle aged man paced the
pavement, and looked up to gray.
haired mistress. 1t only ended with the
death of the lady, few years ago. Many
persons have assured me that they have
often been eye-witnesses of what | have
described, and / found that the fact was
quite notorious in 0porto. 1t will, of
course, be understood that the stagnat-
ing life l have described, with its narrow
circle of interests and its little mean
ness Of household detail, is confined to
the halfeducated, middle class inhabit-
ants of small country towns. The higher
native society of Lisbon, with its courtly
Influences, and that of 0porto-which
holds the same relative position to Lis.
bon that Edinburgh did to London be-
fore the days of steam-can compare
with that of any capital of Europe. The
men are high.bred, courteous and intel
ligent, and the ladies have charm Of
manner and talents for society which all
foreigners admit"

The Seneca Falls Courier tells the fol.
lowing: "a party we're out of town on
Monday picnicing and fishing along the
shore of Cayugs Lake, In their ram
bles they took in the camp Of the Seneca
Falls boys, who are Willing away few
days near East Varick. After posting
the boys about home matters, and being
told by them that the fish we're not in a
biting mood, which somewhat discon.
certed their plan Of action, they con-
cluded to push on to a shady nook a
short distance up the lake, where they
exercised their squatter sovereignty by
squatting on the rocks preparatory to
further developments, when, 10 and be-
hold an eagle was seen approaching,
bearing in his talons large fish. When
nearly over their heads they all gave an
pnearthly yell, which SO shocked the
propriety Of Mr.. Eagle that he loosed
his grasp Of the fish and it fell at their
feet. IL proved to be a pike, weighing
some three pounds, and still alive. They
all returned to camp in high glee over
their good luck, and fresh fish was on
the next bill of fare for dinner"

The GIRLS ofMnniIIn.

A midshipman writes in Scribner's
Monthly OF ball in Manila as follows:
Promptly at 8 o'clock we drove into the
widows basement; we ascended the
stone stairway, and scene of splendor,
brilliant colors and black eyes burst
upon our view. The Mestiza girls were
sitting in row on one side of the room,
about forty Of them; some deoked in
gay plumsge, yellow, pink and green
being prominent colors, others dressed
in somber hues; they were mostly very
pretty, with 1.-THE, graceful figures, and
eyes as black as coal. The gentlemen
lowered near the doors of the grand
sala, like hawks eying chickens; at the
first note Of the music they all made a
pounce for partners. AS | saw that
pouncing was the go, made dive for
pretty yellow-and-green, ratified off
sentence from the fifteenth lesson in
0llendorf, will you do me the favor to
bailar conmigo2" and started off on a
dance | had never seen before, but which
was easy to learn; it was the babanera,
a sort of walking embrace to slow mu-
sic; you make a step to the right, rise
on your toes, step to the right, and so
on; then, when you wish to balance, you
wink at some fellow, stop in front of him
and go through the ladies' chain, then
clasp your partners waist and take the
other lsdy's right hand; the other
fellow does the same, and now with the
music you sway up to the center, sway
Back, and revolve in an elliptic at the
same time, after the manner of the plan
cts. After swaying six times you drop
the other lsdy's hand and gradually sail
off again with the step and turn. The
girls cling quite closely and gaze up &C.
casionally, Spanish fashion. Whenever
the couples ran against each other the
girls sang out with sharp little "HiW

The philosophy Of disease is a subject which
is well worthy the attention of mankind, but
is, unfortunately, more generally neglected
than any other under heaven. Decidedly the
most important fact that an examination of 1t
discloses is that in nine cases out of ten, the
originating causes of disease is debility, either
general or local, and that the earliest mani
festations Of its approach are Identical with
those which evidence lack of vital power.
Such being the case, 1t is perfectly clear that
tonic treatment is what is required in the first
instance. As an invigorant. Hostetter's Stom-

T1LToN VS.. BEECHER.- NEW YORK.
January 4.-The case of Tilton VS..
Beecher was called this morning,
Judge McCue, Mr.. Beecher and his
counsel were present, bat Tllton's
lawyers were absent. Shearman of
the counsel for the defendant, urged
that the case go on at once, as the
counsel had a case in the Supreme
Court of the State Of New York in
which Beecher was pecu niarly interes-
ted. Judge McCue finally determin-
ed to call the calender in the regular
order, and directed jury to be sworn
in the case down Immediately before
the scandal case. At noon James H.
Drake, of Staten Island, who is going
to Europe, appeared and his examina-
ton was taken de 6ene esse. He testi-
fed that he was a grain exporter. and
two or three days after the publica ton
of the notorious article in Woodruff &
Clafflin's weekly he met Moulton in
the Produce Exchange and had con-
versation with him in regard to the
matter. He asked Moulton what he
thought of it, and he replied that it
was falsehood, and if Beecher's ca
reer was not sufficient to give it the
lie he was very much surprised. This
testimony will be read before the Jury
when empanelled Beecher was 10 the
courtroom with his counsel again this
afternoon. but the case begun ia tho
morning had not been CONCLUDED.

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS.

Senator Morton is pressing his bill
in the Senate favoring a change in the
method of electing a President and
Vice President. Democrats as we'll as
Republicans recognize the evils of the
present system. Morton's bill provides
for the election of President and Vice
President by direct vote of the peo-
pie.
1t is proposed, in this connection, to
repeal the twenty-second joint rule Of
the two houses, adopted in 1865, which
provides that the vote of State may
be thrown out on the objection OF a
member of either house, such objection
being sustained by the house to which
the object;ng member belongs. Under
this rule, the two houses being con-
trolled respectively by opposing politi-
cal parties, as will be the case in the
Forty-fourth Congress, disagreeable
contest might ensue.

The NECK.-Perfect health demands
that the clothing about the neck should
be very moderate in quantity and worn
so loose as to prevent the slightest
compression. The great error fire.
quen;ly committed in clothing this
part of the body consists in wearing
such an amount as to overhead and
weaken the throat, and thus render it
easily susceptible to cold, or in wearing
it so tight as to retard the circulation
of the blood to and from the head
Great care should be exercised on this
point, as the arteries and veins leading
from the heart to the brain are situated
so near the surface in the neck that a
slight compression there serves to check
the flow of the blood Many cases Of
congestion of the brain and headache
are caused by too tight collars and era
watts.
