WRITER STYLES.

AAA
Nature is putting on her dress of russell
and golden, purple and crimson, in ex-
change for the pale green robes of summer.
Fashion is taking her as a model, and
commanding that we shall wear the gor-
geousness Of autumn somewhat subdued by
sober backgrounds.
Our new winter dress goods are rough
and warm. These rough goods are toned
down by making them up with silks, vel
vets or woolens. Indeed it is the prevailing
custom of the season to use two, and some
times more than two, materials in the same
dress. This furnishes a great assistance to
economy, for when a lady possesses hand
some garments with portions too much
frayed to wear, she can combine them in
one elegant suit. The long cloak and man
tie are still worn, yet not SO very long AS
last winter. They are half-titted or nearly
soin various shapes of sack and gored out
line. Heavy cloths, woven in twills, bas-
ket and other not too noticeable thick tex
ture, with warm woolly undersides, divide
admiration with a frosty wooden plush in
gray OF WOl CUIOIS.
Strong efforts have been made to do away
with the Princess, yet it will reign at least
all winter. For symmetrical figures no
style is handsomer. Every season there is
a great cry that Polonaises are not to be
worn, still they remain in as great favor.
This seasons models are many of them
more or less suggestive of the Breton, and
are very attractive and beautiful. Some are
double-breasted, some button diagonally,
and some are regular Breton style.
Many new styles of overskirts and basques
are presented, proving that there is no pros
pect of either falling into disfavor, Cloaks
for misses and children are of medium depth
very like in effect to those designed for the
grown lady.
Polonalses and overskirts and basques are
all in favor. These are designed for the lit
tie ones, very much after the styles of their
mammals.
In millinery there are four prevailing
shapes: the close cap, the flaring hat, the
helmet or the English walking hat.
Soft plush is used as q trimming in the
place of velvet, as it seems much more deli
cate. Wings, birds and feathers form the
principal trimmings. There is a prediction
that full, belted waists, and full skirts are
bound to return by spring, strenuous efforts
being made to revive them. Some will hail
their advent with delight, while others will
strongly deplore it. Yet when Fashions
fiat goes forth all obey.-Jou17aaI Of Agricul-
ture and Farmer.

A HISSIN G-H0T ATMOSPHERIC.

AA0 xAA1LE
ihose who have never presumably inspect
eo the lower levels of our mines NAV obtain
some idea of the degree of heat to be found
therein by visiting the Savage Works at the
change of shifts. The m~en-packed topeth-
er as close as they can stand on the cage
are popped up out of the shaft all steamine
not, for the world like a bunch of asparagus
just lifted from the pot. They make their
appearance in q cloud of steam that pours up
continuously from the depths profound,n
and are dimly seen until they step forth up-
on the floor OF the works. AS the men land
and separate, each carries with him for half
a minute his little private cloud of yapor.
AS this passes of the man is seen to be nak-
ed from the waist up, his skin as wet as
though he had just been lifted cut of a pool
of water. The men bring up with them
besides the steam-an amount of heat that
may be felt by the spectator as they pass.
All this is at the top of the shaft, where it is
considered quite cool; what, then, must it be
hundreds of feet below, where the men star
ted from-down where the water stands 157
degrees Fahrenheit? Down there no steam
Is SCENT is too hot for it. 1t is only when
the hot, moist air coming up from the lower
regions strikes the cool air toward the top of
the shaft that it takes the form of steam.
Down there where the men come from you
must keep your hands off the pump column
and the pipes, and if you pick up an iron
tool you will at once put it down without
being told to do so. Down there they ham
die things with gloves on, or wrap rags
about the drills they are guiding and iron
apparatus they are moving, and down there,
too, you will learn to keep your mouth shut
after you have drawn a few mouthfuls of hot
air into your lungs. Perspire? It is no
name for it. You are like a sponge that is
being squeezed. You are ready to believe
that you have ten million pores to every
square inch of surface, or as many more as
any authority maym e%ntion, and that these
pores are as big as the cells of a honeycomb-
You go for ice-water, and it almost seems to
hiss as it passes down your throat-you
keep going for it, and thus, in a short time,
of ice that are daily consumed in the mines.
Remain below among the miners tor an hour
or two, and when you are finally popped
at the top of tho shaft, all red-hot and steam
ing, among the other asparagus sprouts, you
will appreciate the beauty, the light, and the
GOODNESS of the upper world (Nev.)

REAL CANNIBALS.

Real cannibals have been discovered by
missionaries on the islands of New Britain
and New Ireland, of the northeast coast OF
New Guinea. These natives are nude saw
ages of the Oriental negro type, who live
more like beasts than human beings. Rev.
George Brown, Wesleyan missionary, re-
ports that he saw women roasting the leg
and thigh Of man who had been killed in
fight. In another hut smoke-dried human
flesh was hanging. In another be counted
thirty-hve jaw bones Of men and women.
Cannibalism seemed to be common In ali
the islands, not as sreligious rite, but as an
ordinary means OF subsistence. The ma
tives assured the missionary that the &C.
counts heretofore published Of race OF
tailed human beings were true, and were
certain that these strnnge creatures were
not n onkeys.

Dear heart and true. i'll the seasons fed
Has the world swept by me and left Inc dead.
Have the pansies withcrcd used to know:
Are the roses faded OF Lon. Ago:
DO the tapers glmlner that lit the feast:
Has the pageant passed: has the music ceased:
And musing here on the sca-beat coast,
Am living man, or a wandering ghost;
Still in the scent Of the autumn air
feel rapture that's like despair
The starlight pale on the sleeping sea
Is Il nameless, sorroWtul JOY to me:
And lit by orb or crescent Of night,
Meadow and woodland are brave to sight,
Still bend TO the mystic power
az the strange sea-breeze and the breath OF dove
And the face of beauty wakes the warmth

The Great Centre.
From the Bangor Daily Commercia

From the Bangor Daily Commercial
The great heart and centre of this country is
at present embraced between the Hudson river
and the Atlantic Ocean on the East and the
Mississippi river on the West, and between the
Gulf of Mexico on the South and the Great
Lakes in the North. In connection with the
late Presidential election and the revolutionary
ideas that are now abroad, there is much specu
lation as to where the numerical, moral and
property forces are located, and 10 what extent
conspiracy can rely on those forces, i'll the event
the conspirators should decide to attempt to
set aside the will of the people as declared at
the ballot-boXes.
The territory whose boundaries we have
above given is, as we have said, the great heart
and centre of the American Union. 1t en-
braces twenty States. of which are Northern
and l. Southern. The population of these
States in 1872 was as follows:
8 Northern States. Il ,935,32G
Il Southern States, 10,126,345
Total, 20 States. 2S 061 ,665
The whole population of all the States and
Territories in 1870 was 38,558,371. These 90
States therefore embrace nearly three-fourths
of all the population of the country.
The real wealth of these 20 States, rs given
in the census of 1870, was as follows:
Eight Northern States. $19, ,296, ,9+4. 800
Twelve Southern States, 3,S3j,015, 800
