German CeremOniaIS.

OF customs we can only speak very
generally as regards country where
every province has its own peculiar ira
ditions, an dwhere conservative atfec-
ton has preserved these with an almost
religious exactitude.
Very unpleasant, according to our
ideas. is the rule that strangers must
make the first advance Thus, when you
arrive in town where you propose to
remain for any length of time, you will
provide yourself with an introduction or
two, you will procure a list of the Hon.
oratioren, OR honorabilities, of the place,
and you will drive from door to door
leaving cards. These cards will present
ly be returned, and shortly afterward a
footman or laqua5s de place will call, ask
to see the HerschGften, and will then IN
due form deliver his masters message,
requesting the honor of your company
at dinner on such day, at three, four or
five o'clock, as the case may be. When
you arrive on the festive scene it will be
your duty to request the hostess to intro
duce you to all the ladies present. This
she will do, presenting you to the excel
lencies and distinguished persons first,
the tour being made according to the
incest gradation of etiquette, so that be-
ginning with an Embassadress you will
end with Lieutenant's wife, and then
in turn have to receive your court, name
ly, the husbands of all those ladies to
whom you have been doing reverence.
The cOurtesyings, the Obeisances, the
compliments, at once embarrass, annoy
and tickle you. Your stiff backbone
doesn't take kindly to the prostrations
your knees resent the genutlections; you
scorn to grovel, yet you fear to offend /;
you feel ridiculous in your unwonted an
tics, and are afraid of falling; and yet
sense of humor would make it
difficult, were you more at ease,
to abstain from shouts of laughter
at the bobbing, sliding, gliding and
grimacing in which you are playing such
an unwilling par. You feel that these
ladies who dip and wriggle as to the
manner born are criticising your want OF
grace, your rustic air, your wooden
jointed reverences, and yet you swear to
yourself by all your gods that no inch
lower than is consistent with your ideas
of personal dignity will you sink before
these your fellow creatures. The blood
rushes to your face, partly in pride, part
ly in embarrassment, and you wish your
self well out of this galere; yet you are
angry with yourself with an unreason.
ing anger for your want of philosophy
and your unpliable spine. Experience,
it is true, will make these scenes famil-
lar and Indifferent to you; you will gath
er courage to preserve your natural gait,
to grant your limbs the freedom to which
they have been accustomed, to be polite
and pleasant, and to 60 your own way
without attempting to ape manners that
went out of fashion in your own country
a century ago. 1t is only the first step
that costs; but it costs great deal; and
it is not easy for very young woman to
preserve the juste ntlieu between mod

Marauding in Mid Air.

THE peculiar method in Mr.. Donald
sons alloonacy-namcly. that OF SKIM
ming along at little distance above the
earth's surface with drag-rope trailing
to regulate the voyager's speed and ena-
BILE him to "hitch up" for terrestrial re-
freshments-may be eminently condu-
Give to the comfort and convenience of
the aeronaut, but it involves certain
counterbalancing disadvantages for
dwelers on terra f1nad in connection with
fruit-trees, flower beds, greenhouses,
etc, to say nothing of personal peril
The spectacle of several hundred yards
of suspended cable thrashing across coun-
try like Boanergian whip-lash, tearing
through horticultural products, devastat
ing clothes-lines, perchance swapping up
here and there an unconsidered infant,
denuding shingled roofs and crashing
window -panes, is well calculated to cause
trepidation in the rustic mind and to di-
minish the hospitality of the reception
accorded to visitors from the clouds,
whose advent is thus destructively her
aided. Last year the most notable OF
Mr. Oonaldson's performances was the
wrenLning off of farmhouse chimney
and this, with the limited facilities then
at his disposal, was as much as could
have been expected. In his latest ascen-
sion, few days ago, however, with the
monster balloon philanthrOpically pro-
vided by Mr.. Barnum, his soaring ambi-
ton sought larger game, and attempted
the abduction of an entire detachment Of
the travelling public. Starting from
Worcester his aerial course was shaped
toward Boston, at first wife no more seri-
Gus detriment to property than is i'm
piled in the announcement that he I" an
chored" at Ashland for supper. But on
nearing Natick a passing railway train
caught his eye and was incontinently
caught by his dragrope, and the situa-
ton was for some time one of much
gravity-of so much greater gravity on
the part of the railway train, fortunately,
that the cars were enabled to hold to
earth until, after long tussle, the Off
cials succeeded in releasing them from
the snare.-NeU York World.

THE FARMER KING.


THE farmer sat in his old armchair,
Rosy and fair,
Contented there,
Kate, DECLARE"
Hesaid to his wife, who was knitting near,
"We need not fear
The hard times here,
Though the leaf of life is yellow and sere.
Pm the king and you are the queen
OF this fair scene,
Those fields of green
And gold between,
These cattle grazing upon the hill,
Taking their fill,
And sheep so still,
Like many held bya single will
"These barnyard fowls are our subjects all;
They heed the call,
And like squall
On fast wings fall,
Whenever we scatter for them the grain.
'Tis not in vain
We live and reign
In this our happy and calm domain.
"And whether the days be dim or fine,
III rain ana Snlne,
These lands Of mine,
These fields of thine,
In cloudy shade and in sunny glow,
viii overflow
With crops that grow,
When gold is high and when it is low.
" Unvexed with shifting of stocks and shares
And bulls aud bears,
And strifes and cares,
And the affairs e
OF speculation in mart and street,
In this retreat
Sweet peace can meet
With plenty on her rural beat"

The Original MongOls.

AT a recent meeting of the San Fran
cisco Academy of Sciences, Charles W.
Brooks read paper On "The Origin of
the Chinese Races" in which some curl
Gus deductions are made. A local jour-
nal summarizes the papes as follows:
" Central Asia has hitherto had the credit
of being the cradle of mankind. Scien-
lists say that America is older, geograph'
ically, than any part of the earth's
surface. Therefore, in natural process OF
evolution, the aboriginal man must have
appeared ON this hemisphere in the vicin-
ity of the first rocky elevation. The
Chinese people are unlike any other peo-
pie on the continent of Asia. They are
hemmed in by mountains and the great
wall along the northern and western
frontier. They have had no communi-
cation with other Asiatic peoples from
time immemorial. According to this ira.
dition their first progenitors landed on
the southern coast of China. In looking
for the place where they might natural
ly have been brought by favoring winds
and currents, our attention is turned to
Peru. The records of that country show
an immense antiquity. Their civiliza
ton was extremely ancient, and the
remnants of an almond-eyed race re.
sembling the Mongolians are found in
the Peruvian mountains and also about
the headwaters of the Amazon. Peru
had an immense population 1900 years
before Christ. Early in the history
of the world the Peruvians possessed
knowledge of solar movements, the
mariners compass and hieroglyphics
or picture-writing. An armed vessel OF
an invader might have gone In sixty days
from Peru to the southern coast of China
Chinese records show that 1858 years be
fore Christ Fo XII, stranger King, in
troduced the recondite knowledge pos
sessed by the Peruvians to the Chinese
The lower roots of the Peruvian idio'
graph are connected with the 216 radi.
calls of the Chinese language. These
writings occur all through Asia and as
far west as the pyramids. The sugges.
tions of these facts and the many infer
ences to be drawn from them were elab.
GRATED with much specification of detail
1t was shown that, while Peru had al
one time 100000 of inhabitants, her
industries had died out and her popula,
ton disappeared. China had gone on
increasing her population indefinitely
and achieved high degree of civiliza
ton. The paper was listened to with in
terest, and applauded at the close"

Go0D-NIGHTAND GOoDMORNIN G

A FAIR little girl sat under tree,
Sewing as long as her eyes could see:
Then smoothed her work and folded it
right,
And said: Dear work, goodnight! good
night"
Such a number of rocks came over her head,
Crying "Caw caw!" on their way to bed,
She said, as she watched their curious fight:
Little black things, goodnight! good
night!'
The horses neighed and the oxen lowed;
The sleeps "bleat, bleat' came over the
road;
All seeming to say, with quiet delight:
Good little girl, good night, good-nightm
She did not say to the sun: Goodnight"
Though she saw him there, like 4 ball OF
light;
For she knew he had Gods own time to keeE
All over the world, and never could sleep.
The tall pink foXglove bowed his head
The violets courtesied and went to bed;
And good little Lucy tied up her hair
And said on her knees her favorite prayer.
And while on her pillow she softly lay,
She knew nothing more till again it was day
And all things said to the beautiful sun:
Good morning. good-morning! our work i:
begun"

observed his Oldest boy suddenly mount
upon the bannister and glide swiftly
down to the first floor, where he stood
waiting for an offensive movement on
the part of his father. Then Cooley
leaned over the railing, and, shaking his
fist at him, said:
"You wicked little scoundrel, if you
amt a candidate for the gallows I'm no
Judge. You come up here and go to
bed, and tomorrow morning I'll tan
your hide for you with bed-slat. You
mind me? I'll give you enough earth
quake to make you dance from here to
the equator, you tow-headed outcast"
Then the family went to bed, and the
boy crept softly up the kitchen stairs,
thinking there was not much fun in
such jokes, anyhow Adeler, IN N.

State. There was much dissatisfaction at the

the law under which it was called. There
was marked indifference amongst intelligent
Conservatives in many parts of the State.
Their delinquency at the polls gay the Rad
