1t was during the siege of Wagner, and
the Union parallels were but few hun

put er like the devil in gale of wind.
What with grape, canister, round shot,
shell and a regular bees nest of rife

fearful drain of ammunition on the
Confederate government about this

The Beers.

In point of physique the Boer is a fine
fellow-tall and muscular and 1.-the
some, though slouching in his gait. A
rough, sun burnt face, the very picture
of health, appears from underneath his
broad brimmed hat. He is proverbially
healthy, leading, as he does, a pastoral
existence, seldom touching intoxicating
liquors, except on a visit to distant
town. He marries young, and is, as a
rule, blessed with large family. In bis
mode OF life he issimple in the extreme,
with an entire Indifference to cleanliness
or comfort. The Boer is a sloven; his
house is a piggery. The homestead is
but an unpretending buildir e, having,
in all probability, been built by the
farmer and his sons. The furniture of
the dwelling room consists of a large
table, the "vrau's" chair, few other
hard chairs, a family chest or wardrobe,
and settee, the seat of which is made
out of strips OF OK hide, stretched and
crossed in the form of network. On the
table lies the bible, which constitutes
the family library, other books or news
papers being rarely seen. Indeed, the
Beers might fairly be termed bibli.
cal race" Those who can speak English
frequently express themselves in Ian.
gua9e resembling that of the Old Testa-
ment, and if engaged in discussion, their
arguments will be supported by examples
and quotations from Holy Writ.

japanese MaXims.

Some of the precepts in the shorter
code are based on instincts of good breed
ing, and, apart from local coloring, are
such as characterize civilized society
everywhere. Of this universal nature
are such az these: Do not talk with
toothpick in the mouth; complete the
toilet before meeting people in the morn
ing; receive q visitor without unneces-
sary delay; do not talk rudely or coarse
ly in company, and don't talk with the
HANDS hidden in the dress (anglice, pock-
ets); when a guest is visiting you, offer
him the use of the bath on arising before
using it yourself; in company don't
monopolize the fire; if another is using
the ink-stone wait until he has finished
writing before using it yourself; don't
look at letters intended for others; don't
stare at other peoples wives; don't enter
private apartments without announce
ment; if another is sleeping be careful
not to disturb him; do not interrupt =
person who is speaking; don't ride too
near q picnic party or before windows
The delicacy which prompts such regu.
lations az these will be appreciated by
every one.-Goed Company.
