SOUTHERN GIRLs.-You can tell a
Southern girl at once. She is rounder
than her Northern sisters-indeed, she
is never thin or lank; she walks with
laneuid steps, and all her movements
are Slow and indolent; she never alert.
She has fine, soft eyes, with serene ex-
preston very different from the quick,
keen eye of the North. She has not
the beautiful white and red complexion
of New York and New England; rather
is she salow, with a few rose tints; you
might call her cream-color. She never
looks anxious, no matter what happens.
She does no: think she can help mat
tiers by her advice or interference, but
sits back calmly and leaves everything
to ''brother," or spa pronouncing the
latter word in way l defy Northern
girl to initiate. The word might be
used as shibboleth; it is exactly."pay,"
but half way between that and the
sound of "a" in "cat." Our Southern
girls dresses picturesquely rather than
trinity, and has brighter colors and
more floating ends and curls about her.
than a Northern belle allows. She has
pretty, plump hands, but she is not
particular about the gloves that cover
fhem-I mean particular compared with
Fifth avenue rules. In short, she is a
more voluminous sort of girl in every
way, and cares less about ''the fashion"
She has one decided advantage over
the Northern girls, however and that
is her voice; it is sweeter and lower,
little trinane, perhaps, but essentially
gentle and womanly.

To Write a Composition.

The following advice was given by
lady who was asked TO help boy write
his school composition. 1t is good and
should be read by every school girl and
school boy.
What you have got to do is to know
something well, aud tell it as plainly as
you can.
have never found you at a loss for
words when you have come home from
a fishing party or nutting frolic. Then
you had something to tell, and you told
il. Very well, that is precisely what
You should do in "getting up" your
composition. The only difference is
that you write it out instead of speak
ing il. A "composition" is nothing but
written talk. Now you don't talk much
about faith, hope, and charity or if
you do, l have never heard you then
why should you addle your brains trying
to write about them =? How is it posi-
BILE for you to write about what you
cannot talk about? 1t is not possible (;
you cannot do it and when you try
you only succeed in copying something
that you have read or heard.
Here is good rule to go by: Never
attempt to write about a thing until you
have seen it if you can touch, taste,
and smell it, all the better you will
have less trouble hunting up long words.
You see | know that trick. Yet get
the biggest words that you can find and
then you make them sprawlbesldes.
For this particular composition, as
You will not have much time, you might
use the letter that you wrote to me. l
wish that yau would do so. 1t might
give your teacher new idea. l will
send it to you with mine, for of course
you did not keep copy you only pre-
serve copies Of your compositions. ;"
And yet | will venture to say that that
letter was more truly yoar own compo-
sition than any you have ever read III
school.
Or if you would not rather let folks
know what a hard time you have chas-
ing after ideas, suppose you take tad
might be able to get up the regular
number of lines on this subject without
any very heavy brain-work. l am very
sure that you know more about tadpoles
than l do, and if were required to tell
what l know about tadpoles should
start for Duckville Immediately for the
purpose of interviewing Master Tom
Brown. Then there are muskrats, field
mice, squirrels, bugs, birds and bees
without number; and, oh, hundred
other interesting things that nobody
knows much about except you boys,
and those other boys-the naturalists.
Try my plan, Tom, and don't write
long-tailed, and mind your capitals,
spelling and punctuation ; and, my word
for it, you will "get up" composition
that will do you credit, and astonish
every body but your affectionate aunt

A man may conceal his name, his
age, the circumstances Of his life, but
not his character. That is, bis moral
atmosphere is as inseparable from him
as the fragrance of the rose from the
rose itself. In the glance of the eye,
in the tones of the voice, in mien and
gesture, character discloses itself.

TERRIBLE PosITIoN OF AN ENGINEER
The Alexandria, (Va,) Sentinel tells
of an accident at Big Bend tunnel, on
the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad, by
which the engineer, Mr.. John Quincy
Adams Wilkins, was injured. The big
Bend" is what is known in railroad par
lance as ''dirt tunnel being very liza
BILE to cave in, and therefore the engi-
neers are more careful to look out for
danger ahead in passing through
them. 1t was the exercise of this care
that probably saved an immense loss of
life, as the train had been brought down
to very slow rate of speed OH ap
preaching the tunnel. 1t seems that an
end of one of the large timbers support
ing the roof had become detached and
fallen on the track few feet within
the tunnel, and the pilot of the engine
striking it, the jar loosened the other
timbers and large quantity of earth
and stones, and the whole mass came
tumbling down upon the locomotive,
breaking it to pieces. The fireman,
who was standing close to Mr.. Wilkins,
was mashed to jelly and could not
nave hved moment, while Mr.. Wilk-
ms was thrown forward in a standing
position, with his throat across the re-
verse bar, and large timber fell across
the back of his neck, rendering it i'm
possible to move. He had 0uid of
tobacco in his mouth at the time. and
so tightly was he caught that he could
not expectorate and could only swallow
with difficulty; indeed, he could scarcely
raise his voice above whisper. There
he remained for six hours in the pitchy
darkness, while every second or two
small pieces of dirt and gravel from the
roof would fall down by his side, con-
veying the impression momentarily that
another mass was about TO fall and
crush him completely. All the time
the shouts of those outside could be
heard, as with shovel andax they forced
their way to his rescue, which, however
seemed to him beyond all hope. When
they finally reached him he was more
dead than alive, and, being completely
exhausted, lost consciousness in swoon
which lasted several hours.
