Vespers in South America

To the traveller in Spanish
America the striking of the YES
per bell exercises q potent charm.
As the usage requires every cne to
halt, no Matter where he may be,
at the first stroke of the bell, to
interrupt his conversation, howev-
er important, and listen without
stirring until the conclusion OF the
chime, the singularity Of whole
population surprised in a mo.
ment, as it comes and goes, held
in a state of petrifoation, and par.
alyzed as if by an encounter, may
be inn gined. On every side you
see gestures interrupted, mouths
half opened for the arrested re.
mark, smiles lingering or passing
into an expression of prayer; you
would fancy them a nation OF stat
ues. A town in South America,
at the tinkle of the Angelus, re
sembles the city in the arabian
Nights" whose inhabitants are
is the bell ringer; but hardly has
the vibration ceased when uni
versai murmur arises from these
thousands of oppressed lungs.
Hands meet hands; question seeks
answer; conversations resume their
course; horses feel the loosened
blidle, and paw the ground; dogs
bark, babies cry, ,thefathe:s sing tie
mothers chatter. The accidental
turns thus given TO conversation
are many.

A Great Swimmer

Captain Boynton, the Amer
ican who jumped from an ocean
steamer off the cost of Ireland
and swan thirty miles during
one of the most terrific gales of
the season, has been giving
some very successful exhibitions
Of his swimming dress upon the
Thames. Vast crowds Of peo-
pie line the banks Of the river
every time that he appears, and
watch with the greatest interest
his movements in the water.
The other day he went down to
Mapping old stairs and put on
his sswimming'clothes, consisting
of an india-rubber suit in two
parts-one covering the chest,
arms and back of the head; the
other the legs and feet. This is
put on over an ordinary suit.
After being adjusted the parts
are inflated by four tubes, and
when full of air the wearer steps
into the water withoutthe slight
est fear. Captain Boynton rails

Stephen Girard's Bequest.

The recent report Of the trus-
tees of the Stephen Girard be-
quests to the city of Philadelphia
exhibits fine results of q carefully.
managed fund. Stephen Gilard
left fortune of $9,000,O00 and
bequeathed great deal of it to
the city of his adoption, and nota-
bly, a fund of S2,00O,000 toward
the founding of the Orphans
Home, which is in such a flourish
ing condition to day. This insti-
tuition, known as Girard College,
embracing several superb marble
buildings, on a tract OF 4 | acres of
land within the city limits, con-
tains nearly GOO orphans. The
building cost nearly two mil
lions of dollars, but the institution
is supported out Of the net income
of the Girard estate, which in
1874, amounted to &438 32l.
OF this sum Sl73,023 was expen
ded for the orphans. The balance
was reinvested in good improved
property. Girard made bis nine
millions by trading with the West
Indian islands and selling grocer
les and liquor to the soldiers of
the Revolutionary war. Fifty
thousand dollars of his capital was
obtained in this manner: When
the negro ipsurrection broke out
in Hayti many Of the planters
placed their valuables on wo OF
his ships which were lying in port.
The owners were all slam by the
negroes, aud no heirs ever claim
ing the property, Girard kept IT
and invested it in his business.
During the last four years the
trustees have probably invested
S000,00G Of surplus income ard
the estate is growing more valua-
bic every day Girard, in bis will,
stipulated that no minister or re-
ligious teacher should ever cross
the threshold of the Orphans
College, and bis desire has been
respected to this day. The or
phans are taught a pure morality,
however. When they arrive at
the age of eighteen years they are
apprenticed to learn useful trade.
Among Girard's bequests to Phil
adelphia was $4,000. the inter
est of which was to be spent in
purchasing fuel for the poor.
This has proven very useful and
