A MATRIMONIAL Fair.

In the southern part Of Ireland curious
custom prevails, which is called Shrafting,"
named from Shrove Tuesday, on which day
regular matrimonial "iTatIersas' is held. where
all the " likely boys and girls " in the parish
on view, and all the matches " in the year are
made. For days before, there is quite stir IN
the neghborhuod, and twitter runs through the
entire iemae population. There is universal

meet in the road holds out her hand for six
pence and you cant speuk to a domestic SER

On the day of the Z" Shrufling" the girls stand
in row on the village green. There is every
expression on their faces-anxiety, curiosity.

British Heroes of Trafalgar.

Looking back through the long vista of seven-
tv-two years (says the London TeIegraph) to the
day when Nelson's immoItI signal inspired the
victory of Trafalgar. it hard 10 believe that
we have still among US group of officers who
then helped TO assert the naval supremacy of
England. We regard even a Waterloo hero as
relic OF the remote past, so far away appears
that loud Sabbath" on which Wellington
shook the spoiler down." But Trafalgar was
fought ten years before the great European con-
vulsion ended on the plains of Belgium. and ten
years, when men get past the Scriptural limit of
human life, is an age. Nevertheless. Gu Sunday

gives for regulating the future. The present is
never our object the past and present we use

Protection ofLIfe from Fire.

The Royal Society for the Protection of Life
from Fire has published its directions to its sub
ordinates. and some suggestions for others who
may be at fires in London. the following of which
are applicable in any city:
Householders should make each person in
their house acquainted with the best means OF
escape, whether the fire breaks out at the top or
at the bottom.
Inmates at the first alarm should endeavor
calmly TO reflect what means Of escape there
in the house. II IN bed ut the time, wrap them
selves in blanket or BEDSIDE carpet ; open
neither windows nor doors more than necessary
shut every door after them. This is most im-
portant to observe.
10 the midst of smoke it is comparatively
clear towards the ground consequently progress
through smoke can be made on The hands and
knees. A silk handkerchief, worsted stocking
or other flannel substance, wetted and drawn
over the lace, permits free breathing, and ex-
cludes to great extent the smoke from the
lungs. A wet sponge is alike eficacious.
In the event Of being unable to escape either
by the street door or the roof, the persons in
danger should Immediately make their way to
the front room window, taking care TO close the
door after them, aud those who have the charge
Of the household should ascertain that every in-
dividual IS there assembled.
FersOne tnuS ClrcuHlSLa0ceu are eOlreuteu
not TO preciptate themselves from the window
while there remains the least possibility Of assist
ance; and even in the last extremity plain
rope is invaluable, or recourse may be had To
joining sheets or blankets together fastening one
end round the bedpost or other furniture. This
will enable one person to lower oil the others
separately, and the last may let himself down
with comparatively little risk. Select a window
over the doorway rather than over the area.
Do not give vent to the Ore by breaking into
the house unnecessarily from without. or, if any
inmate, by opening tho doors or windows make
point of shutting every door after as you go
through the house. For this purpose doors in
closing the staircase are very useful.
Upon discovering yourself on fire. reflect
that your greatest danger arises from draft to the
flames. and from these rising upwards. Throw
yourself on the ground, and roll over on the
fame. if possible on the rug or loose drugget,
which drag under you the table-cover, man 3
coat, anything Of the kind at hand will serve
your purpose; scream for assistance, ring the
bell, bat do not run out of the room, or remain
10 an upright position.
Persons especially exposed to risk of their
dresses taking fire should adopt the precaution
of having all linen and cotton fabrics washed in
weak solution Of chloride Of zinc, alum or tuDg-
state Of soda"

Major Jed. Hotchkss, with analytical
skill and style, enlightened his hearers on

mary instruction, especially as to Arithme-
tic, the perception of numbers; explain
ing the system of Object-teaching, as
shown in the Kinder Gaften' with such
success. reading taught without pelling,
a knowledge of words as pictures. The
most striking part of his address was its
illustrative treatment of Geography, &C
companying his descriptive remarks with
wonderfully rapid and exact drawings on
the blackboard. Major Hotchkiss next
day gave the audience the conclusion OF
his educational discourse, this last division
being the geography of Virginia, admira-
bly, and beautifully described, and delineat-
ed as if by magic on the blackboard
