wait for him. No exaggeration can
equal the truth about the mosquitoes.
Natives assure me they have raised their
guns to shoot, and the barrels and sight
were covered before they could get aim.
At Turtle Mound I have landed and seen
the mosquitoes raise like cloud and ap-
preach ue. In ten seconds my clothes
were SO covered that nly companion
could not distinguish the color. Dogs
spent hours lying on the barely covered
sandbars, with nothing but their noses
above water. They have been known to
run round cabin all night long to clear
themselves of the annoying insects.
Horses On the sea coast are so pestered
that they frequently break loose and run
into the piney woods for miles before
stopping. Cattle cluster together at
night for mutual protection, and those
on the outside fight till broad daylight in
efforts to attain central position. Poul>
try fly from the roost in the morning
with combs, legs and toes as white as the
riven snow. The insects draw the
blood from them at night. Families
have been drive nearly to insanity. The
bars are made of unbleached cotton cloth,
and there can be no ventilation. In close
nights it is impossible to sleep under
them, and the victim would
rather run the risk with the mosquitoes
than smother. In some cases bars within
bars are used, for the insects are so thick
that millions steal in while the persecut-
ed man is crawling to cover. Nor is this
all. Fleas, horsefies and deerfies annoy
the sportsman. The soil seems to be
be composed of feas, and the air seems to
be made of insects. There are Thousands
who do not sting, and hundreds not
mentioned that do. Of course there are
days when strong wind gives the sports
man comparative freedom from these
annoyances. And at such times, If ne
can wait for them, he will find such sport
on this coast as in his hours of sleep he
never dreamed.

chief food of the reindeer in northern
E11rnne
a Greek Gentleman's Costume.

The Greek dress is extremely tasteful
and picturesque, thong we doubt if it
would be just the thing for practical
Americans. We refer, of course to the
genuine Greek: and not to him of the
genus Hibernian. A correspondent
writing to Temple Bar gives the follow"
ing description of the Greek dress as ne
saw it in all it's brilliancy on Sunday
afternoon:
'The fustanella, sort of white cotton
petticoat, fastened around the waist in a
thousand folds, is the same for the pail
kari and the peasant, and is unorna-
mented. The belt, always of silk, is wide
and long, embroidered with gold. The
waistcoat is of the greatest variety OF
black velvet or any colored silk, with
round buttons to match, and braided in
the most fantastic patterns--as wit re-
marked: "a ball of string gone into
fits" A very short vest sometimes leaves
the neck open, or is fastened by double
button. This is the richest part OF the
costume; the sides and back are covered
with embroidery of silk mingled with
gold and silver. In the dress of some
rich people the original stuff is entirely
hidden under a mass of gold braid, such
an article costing about $40, and open
sleeves, also embroidered, show the elk
ahirt. Caters fall over patent-leather
boot, meeting the silk trousers below the
knee, where they are fastened by silk
carriers. which are generally chef d.
oxvre of exquisite workmanship. The
tez is the head gear for all alike, only
varying in the richness of the black, blue
or gold tassel, sometimes fastened by a
diamond clasp

A New Use for Seals.

There exists an animal which might
be trained to render us great service, that
is the seal, which is slaughtered 80 mer-
cilessly for the sake of its oil and skin.
Intelligent and afectionate, it possesses
all the qualities suitable for a domestic
state. The director of the museum at
Dion had so skillf''lly tanned one some
years ago, though by nature amphibious,
its primitive habits were changed, and it
rarely went into the water, placed itself
during the winter close to its master in
the warm corner of the freside, stretched
on the wood-sshes. If pains were taken
to teach the seal, it might become to
the fisherman what the dog is to the
hunter. Nor need we despair of such
result, for the Chinese train the remora
or sucking-fsh to catch turtles, and the
heron and cormorant to capture fishes.
The coasts of England would be fit
places for the education of the seal. The
value of such help may be imaged when
we think of the great solitude of the sea
80 many times larger than the space
covered by land where man has no ally,
and can only count upon those who dread
him. What an interest for him in the
very element itself to have friend and
companion who would follow him in his
fishing expeditions. There are not want
ing conclusive results which have been
obtained in individual cases and if the
same care were extended to the race,
we may say that the seal is an ally
ready prepared by Nature.-[Cbamber's
journal.

Love, call you; can you hear
Call you want you, need you. dear
Is this high-hea Jed mound my kiss,
And my answer only this.
Is the silence as intense
To your freed and perfect sense
As to mine-and is the tide
Just as dark, and wild, and wide3
Can there never come sign
From your rescued soul to miner
So impor tunate my need,
Must idly, vainly plead?
Is there no unguarded place
You might seek and let your face,
Warmed by Heaven S respondent light,
Flash an instant On my sight
NAY! forbea1 vel my eves'
That transcendent, first surprise
Is Deaths guerdon. I must wait
Though the hour be far and late.
Could your soul, TRANSPORTED, bide
For an instant at my sidef
Could my sinfulness endure
Iou beside me white and pure?

six reindeer are to be imported from
Lapland into Manitoba next autumn.
They will be accompanied to their new
home by Lapp, who will have charge
of them during the journey, and also for
some time after their arrival. The moss

wooden country east of Lake Winnepeg

The good woman who tied bunch

Enormous stingraves and buffalo tails
Jump from the waves in futile efforts
to rid themselves of annoying
sucker fish. Schools of golden
cavallo and bluefsh squirt in from the

The striped sergeant-6sh, or saltwater

Near the mouths of the st. Sebastian

rears its young. It feeds upon the
coarse grass on the bottom Of the rivers,
and is frequently stranded on the bars.
It resembles sea lion, but its nose is
more like the nose of COW, and its

pounds, and though perfectly harmless,

Again the public Is Informed that railway

speculatious our readers must form their own iudg-
ment concerning the value of this latest assurance
in comparison with the half hundred which have
preceded IT, But how does the new arrangement,
If adhered to- affect the commerce OF New-York Z
The rates from Baltimore and Philadelphia to the
West are less than from New-York, because of the
shorter distances of those cities from Chicago But
the rates ir0m Boston, greater disaucc-are 90 be
