HOW THE WOMEN DRESS.


We took a walk about the village.
The people, young and old, men, women
and children, all turned out to see US,
and greeted us with pleasant smiles,
may of them giving us good morning"
which they pronounced very well. The
girls were all dressed up in their best
fnery, and some of them, especially
those who had Danish blood, were very
pretty; only it was rather difficult at
first to bring ones self to believe they
were girls at all. This is the country for
Mrs. Bloomer. The women all wear
breeches here, and would scout the
idea of anything else as absurd, and
probably Indecent. l should pity the
girl that tried to introduce the fashion of
petticoats in Greenland. A fashionable
New Y ork belle who should walk down
Broadway in knee brooches, cap, boots,
and gentleman's shooting jacket, with
a cigar in her mouth, would not be more
utterly lost in the eyes of society than
would be Disco young lady who should
appear walking about over the rocky
slopes in fashionable hat, ribbons, long
skirts and crinoline. ''Oh, the shame
less hussy," "The 'brazen-faced thing"
would be the verdict of every Disco
woman, and Disco society would know
her no more. e.
The Disco costume appears very funny
until you get accustomed to-it, butrather
pretty nevertheless. Imagine pretty
girl-and three or four of the Disco
girls are very pretty-with her hair done
up in kind of top-knot on the top OF
the head, with red ribbon, loose-fit
ting jacket made of any Kind of light,
thin stuff, and of any color, trimmed with
a fur collar, and made to put on Just like
a shirt, but reaching only to the waist
a pair of seal skin breeches, with the
hairy side out, reaching nearly to the
knee, and confined there with a garter
pair of high boots, meeting the bottom
of the trousers, the feet and ANKLES of
red leather. the tops OF white linen,
starehed and ironed, and with little
roll of fur around the tops, and the dark
est, deDureet eyes, and the sunniest
brown complexion ever painted by
sunshine, and the sea breez-s and the
ocean spray-and YOU have a faint idea
of Drisco girl. You should see them
tripping about in their little red boots,
with their little, short steps scarcely
seeming to touch the ground, so soft is
their tread, or springing over the rocks
like young antelopes, to know how charm
ing girl may be in breeches. And they
have the daintiest little feet and hands,
toO-feet and hands that would make
the prettiest New York girl burst with
envy if she saw them so finely shaped.
so small, so delicate, and yet so strong.

A htale land-locked bay large enough
for two or three ships to swing in, shut
in on one side by lowering red cliffs,
between whose tops may be seen the
edge of glacier; on the other by a
rocky slope, surmounted BY flagstaff
without flag. Lying in the bay are two
small schooners and vessel with long,
low, dark hull and slender masts, stepped
back, that gave her raking, jaunty air,
as she lies reflected with the tall cliffs in
the clear, smooth water of the little bay.
Scattered over the rocky slope are ten or
fifteen half wooden, half earthen houses,
standing about in loose, free and easy
manner, quite independent of each other,
as though despising the restraint of
streets, to which they do not make the
slightest pretension. The rakish looking
vessel is the Pandora, the little bay is
that of Godhavn, and the collection of
houses scattered up the slope comprises

A contributor to the American Ex-
change and Review gives some interest
ing statistical comparisons compiled from
the censuses of the United States, En-
Gland and WALES. All occupations in
the latter countries eput into six grand
divisions as follows: Professional, 604, :
1O5; domestic, including wives and
others engaged in household duties, o
COS, 175; commercial, SIS, 424 /; agri-
cultural: ,657, 138 industrial, 5,137,-
725; indefinite and reproductive,
8.512, 706. In the United States, with
a larger population. the professional
class amounted to only 450. 532; domestic,
indefinite and non productive,2 S, 191 549;
commercial, 1000, 900; agricultural, o.
500, All; industrial, 1858, 9O4, 80.
The mum Der of professionahpeCple in pro-
portion to the population is twice as large
In England as here. while agriculture is
twice as strongly represented here. Our
indefinite non productive class In also
larger than England's. The United
States has one lawyer to every 946 per-.
sons. and one clergyman to every S79;
while England and Wales have one law
yer to every G53 persons, and oneaclergy-
man to every us. Spain has a clergy.
man to every 81 persons. In spite of
the name we have for peddling, England
has nearly three times as many peddlers
as we. and more butchers, bakers and
while we have more than
ten times as many farmers and asalagges
number of carpenters. The industries
are more generallydivideds here and not
confined to trades so much as in En-
gland.

MonteZuma,s Table.

Herbert Bancroft writes in his " Mon
tezuma:" "The King took his meals
alone in one of the largest halls OF the
palace. If the weather was cold fire
was kindled with kind of charcoal
made of the bark of trees, which emit
ted no smoke, but threw out delicious
perfume; and that his Majesty might
suffer no inconvenience from the heat, n
screen ornamented with gold and carved
with figures of the idols was placed be-
tween his person and the fire. He was
seated upon low leather cushion, upon
which We're thrown various soft skins,
and his table was of similar description,
except that it was larger and rather
higher, and was furnished with white
cotton cloths of the finest ware of Chu-
lula, and many of the goblets were of
gold and silver, or fashioned of beauti-
full shells. He is said to have possessed
a complete service of solid gold, but as
it was considered beneath kings dig
nifty to use anything at the table twice,
Montezuma, with all his extravaganza,
was obliged to keep this costly dinner
set in the temple. The bill of fare COM
prised everything edible of fish, flesh
and fowl that could be procured in the
empire or imported from beyond it.
Relays of couriers were employed in
bringing delicacies from afar, and as the
royal table was every day supplied with
fresh fish brought without the modern
aids of ice and air, tight packing, from a
sea coast more than hundred miles dis
tant, by a road passing chiefly through a
tropical climate, we may form some idea
of the speed with which these couriers
travelled. There were cunning cooks
among the Aztecs, and at these extrava-
CANT meals there was almost as much
variety in the cooking as in the matter
cooked. Sahagun gives most formida-
bic list of roast, stewed and boiled dish
es of meats, fish and poultry, seasoned
with many kinds of herbs, of which,
however, the most frequently mentioned
is chile. He further describes many
kinds of bread, all bearing more or
less close resemblance to the modern
Mexico tortilla, and all most tremen-
dously named. Imagine, for instance,
when one wished for a piece of bread,
having to ask ones neighbor to be good
enough TO pass the totauquitlaxcallilla-
quelpacholli; then there were tamales of
all kinds, and many other curious mess
es, such as frog-spawn and stewed ants
cooked with chile; but more loathsome
to us than such as these, and strangest
OF all compounds that went to make up
the royal carte, was one highly savored,
and, probably, savory-smelling dish; so
exquisitely prepared that its principal
ingredient was completely disguised, and
yet that ingredient was nothing else than
human flesh"

Vanguard VS.. Rear-Guard.

1t is related of Napoleon that his last
words were 4" Iete d'dTn1ee :" Doubt
less, as the shadow of death obscured his
memory, the last thought that remained
for speech was of some event when he
was directing an important "head of
column" / believe that every General
who has handled armies in battle must
recall from his own experience the in
tensity of thought on some similar occa-
sion, when, by single command, he had
given the finishing stroke to some COM
plicated action but to me recurs another
thought that is worthy of record, and
may encourage others who are to follow
us in our profession. l never saw the
rear of an army engaged in battle but L
feared that some calamity had happened
at the front-the apparent confusion,
broken wagons, crippled horses, men ly
ing about dead and manned, parties
fastening to and from seeming disorder,
and general apprehension of something
dreadful about to ensue all these signs,
however, lessened rs / neared the front,
and there the contrast was complete
perfect order, men and horses full of
confidence, and it was not unusual for
general hilarity, laughing and cheering.
Although cannon might be firing, the
musketry Gathering, and the enemy's
shot hitting close, there reigned general
feeling of strength and security that bore
a marked contrast to the bloody signs
that had drifted rapidly to the rear !;
therefore, for comfort and safety, / surely
would rather be at the front than the
rear line of battle. SO also on the
,,,orob +ba baod of the col,,ro, ,,,oxoS or,
steadily, while the rear is alternately
halting and then rushing forward to
close up the gap and all sorts of rumors,
especially the worst, float back to the
rear. Old troops invariably deem it a
special privilege to be in the front-to be
at the "head of column because ex-
perience has taught them that it is the
easiest and most comfortable place, and
danger only adds zest and stimulus TO
this fact.-,Sherman's Memoirs.

Only Wanted TO Know.

The night clerk of Louisville drug
store was aroused some evenings ago by
the furious tinkling of his bell. Peep
ing out of front window he looked be-
low and saw two men standing in the
doorway of the shop, moving about in a
manner indicative of extreme uneasi-
ness. With a shout, "Be down in a
minute, he donned his pantaloons by
fastening single flying button, and pull
ing on his stockings fastened below.
He opened the front door to admit the
two fellows, who, singularly, preferred
to stand outside and allow the clerk to
cool off in the night air. One of the
strangers, a big fat fellow, asked of the
clerk, Have you any Croton oil :" to
which he answered, eyes, sir, plenty"
whereupon the first speaker turned to
his companion, slim little fellow, and
said, in an exultant tone, CT told you
So" The little fellow seemed greatly
disappointed, but muttered: "Well, con
found it, / know you did" Both then
walked off, and the clerk rubbed his eyes
and went back to bed.

LabOrers, Diet i'm Scotland.

The details of case between master
and servant, recently tried at Forces,
Scotland, afford good idea of the
change for the better made by Scotch
emigrants to the United States. Some
farm servants contended against the con-
slant infiiction of kailbrose" which they
had to undergo because their employer,
named Paul, had son e time before added
five calves to his stock, and consequently
could not allow the help as much milk
as would serve them each night to take
their porridge with. The servants agreed
to be satisfied with porridge and milk,
but even this concession the Judge would
not insist upon, claiming that the food
supplied them was as good as that
usually provided in the country. The
kailbrose" is a very inexpensive dish,
made of the sprouts of certain vegetables
boiled, and oatmeal added. Where the
labOrers of that section board themselves,
nothing but "brose" and milk three
times day from years end to years end
is used, and butchers meat once in two
days is the luxury of fortunate servants.
The character of the laborer's diet in this
country shows the poor mans SOW
ereignty in his food as well as his vote.
The laborer here lives as well as the
wealthy farmer in Great Britain, as
rule. Meat at least twice, and sometimes
thrice day, is but small portion of his
table comforts, and kailbrose," even
with milk, he would use to fatten his
pork instead of himself. And yet there
are poor people across the water that are
made to believe they cannot better their
condition by coming to our shores.

A Child and an Oyster.

The following is from the London
Solicitors Journal. "The English
law presents an extraordinary contrast.
On the one side it is held that the negli-
gence of a person having charge of a
young child is the negligence of the
child and imputable to the child, and
that there is no redress if the child is
negligently run over. On the other
side, il is held that, though oysters are
negligently placed in a river-bed, it is
an injury redressable by damages for a
vessel to neghgently disturb them. The
child, were he an oyster, would be
protected but as child under analo-
gous circumstances Of neglect he is with
out redress"
