| In regard to duelling and dissipation
find that this is confined almost en-
tirely to what is called corps students,
There are five Of these corps or clubs in
the university, and they include not
more than one-fourth Of the seven humid
red students which the university boasts.
The corps students can be known by
their brilliantly embroidered caps,
which look something like smoking
caps. The duelling is confined entirely
to these students, and is carried on in a
systematic manner, there being usually
one duel a week during term time.
Generally the eombatants are appointed
by the captain of the club, aud the con-
test j. carried on i'm the presence Of the
members. The duelists use slender
swords sharpened only at the point.
They protect the upper part of the face
and chest with wire serene, and the
arms with heavy gauntlets. a sur
geon is always at hand, aud a fencing
master stands by the side of each to
ward Off any blow that may seem
dangerous. Thus protected, the contest
continues until one has received a
wound, generally on the face. The
scars thus formed are called honorable,
aud are record of university life,
pointed to with pride" Icy the young
men ami their friends.
We saw in the city several young men
with plasters on their faces, where the
wounds were not yet healed, aud a doz-
en- or more whose faces were very much
disfguFed with these tokens Of mistaken
honor. Some had several sears each,
and looked as if they might have come
of second best in some bear fight The
greater part of the beer drinking aud
smoking is done by these corps students.
The popular idea of the fighting, smok-
ing, drinking German student, is no
more the real one than the hazing soph-
more in "Yale College Scrapesr repre-
sents the true college man. As in our
colleges, the large majority of the
students are faithful, hard-working
men.
The library, which is in the center OF
the city, and is not fire-proof building,
contains 100000 volumes, 10000 pamph-
lets, and $500 manuscripts and diplo-
mas.
There are many things Of interest
about Heidelberg, as well as the castle

letter will not permit me to mention.

university town of Heidelberg.

WOMEN AMONG THE ARABS. In
Egypt and Syria We saw tribes Of Arabs
moving about from one point 10 an-
other. Invariably the women walked
with naked feet, were carrying their
young children on their backs, or astride
their hips, or at their breasts, while, At
the same time, huge loads Of cooking
utensils OF grain were balanced upon
their heads, OF perhaps they We're bear
ing the tender young lambs and kids in

and herds of donkeys or oxen; and
lastly, the Arab men, mounted on their
horses, aud glorious in silver-mOunted

Sometimes the women would actually
stagger from side to side Of the path, so
heavy were their loads; but their lords
smoked their pipes, or chatted gayly to-
gether, with no thought of relieving the
overburdened wretches, or even Of
cheering them with kind word

The consultations set; but young Bur-
dount was still in the saddle.
He heard the sound of hoofs far in ad-
vance, and knew that sword would soon
meet Sword.
In his haste he had not donned his
polished armor, and did not seem to think
that the man whom he pursued wore
armor tested on twenty battlefelds.
The resplendent god of day was rising
and throwing his golden light upon hill
and valley when several servants, stationed
upon castles lofty towers, beheld horse
man approaching
The animal was jaded and seemed to
walk with difficulty, while the rider APP
peared to be faint and unsteady in the
saddle.
1t soon became evident to the watchers
that the horseman was wounded, and they
hastened to the court where they encoun-
tered him.
Allat once there was cry of horror,
and the white-faced retainers lifted the
man from his steed.
