A Victim Ofthe Custer Massacre.

A touching incident has Just occurred
in connection with the death of Lieuten-
ant William Van w. Reilly, who fell
with Custer in that terrible fight on the
Little Big Horn last year. At the time
of the battle he wore a seal ring with his
crest cut upon it, and this, together with
his clothing, his sword, his pistols, and all
his belongings, was torn from his dead
body and carried away by some one Of
the foe who had helped kill him. His
mother, unable to secure his remains,
and longing for something that had been
with him to the last, tried in every way
to recover it; she offered immense re-
wards; she had fac-similes OF the die
made and sent to the different agencies
along tn. frontier, and she wrote to all
the commanding officers in the Sioux
country, describing il, and a few days
since she received official notice from the
department that the ring had been

The French government is forming 2
third division of iron -clads, a frigate and tvc
corvettes, to proceed to the Levant for the
protection of French subjects.
There is a distressing famine in the
provinces of Chill and Shanturg, China,
Thousands are dying daily. There is great
efforts toward relief by the natives and

cessful in checking the calamity.
The Turks are already drawing on the
cradle and the grave. All .Mussulmen
between the ages of sixty and sixteen in
Bosnia and Herzegovina have been ordered
to Join the army in those provinces.
Santa Domingo dates to the ninth saw
that President Baez is fast losing his popu.

erals on mere suspicion, and issued a de-
rec ordering duties payable in cash. This

The Turks at Home,

There is no Turkish home-life. By
home life, | understand the frequent
gathering together under the same roof,
ana IN the same room, of the members
OF a family, and all the influences and
attendant circumstances which such fire.
quent gatherings imply. The Turkish
house consists of two parts, one for men
called the selamlik, and the other for
women called the haremlik. These are
usually the two wings of the house, and
are commonly altogether separated from
each other by a central hall. Thus the
men have their part of the house and the
woman theirs. Neither is allowed, with
out permission to enter the territory of
the other. In a Turkish house, the men
ana women do not take their meals to-
gether, do not sit around a table, and
can hardly be said to feed d~ecently. 1t
Is quite possible for men and women
who do not know the use of a fork to be
very clean about their food. but the use
OF a fork Is a great step toward ~cleanli-
ness IN eating. A Turk holding a CON
siderable position in the state will take a
handful OF boiled rice from the common
dish, and after having squeezed all the
water out by working it well in his hand,
will put the lump into the mouth of a
guest as mark Of peculiar favor. There
Is q sloyenliness about Turks at their
meals which is probably due to the fact
that men and womenI do not take their
meals together. The object of the meal
is solely to eat. Small tables, usually
without cloths, the dishes ready for
every ones fingers, and the absence of
a score of small conveniences which
every European tables furnishes, could
only be tolerated by people who get
their meals anyhow. What is said of
breakfast applies equally to the other
meals during the day. The ciyilizing
ehect upon a household of requiring ali
the members to meet together, the atten.
ton which has to be given to dress, and
to certain prophecies of life, the CONVEX.
sation which takes place, are all so
many influences which the Turkish house
Is entirely without. The truth is that
the separation Of the women from the
men absolutely destroys every thing
worth speaking of as home life, and
causes the life Of a Turk in his own
mouse to be utterly wearisome and stupid.
