Back fro N Egypt.

from Tie Atlanta toNsti. utisn.
About four years AGO the Khedive of
Egypt became dissatisfied with the native
officers of his army, and wanted to secure
the services of some outside officers. He
did not care to enlist European officers,
because in case of European complica.
tions they might probably desert the
Egyptian standard. He therefore ap-
piled 10 General Sherman to send him
some ex American officers. Among those
who went into the service OF the Khe-
dive on this Tequi=ition was MIR. c. /.
Groves, of Rome, Ga. Mr.. Groves was
settled down into quiet and prosperous
farmer. He had beautiful place under
the shadow OF Mount Alto near Rome
He lett his family in this country and
went by himself He spent three years
in the service OF the Khedive. About
the 1st of last June, the Khedive pro-
posed to cut down the army and dis
charged shout 10000 men. In this
reduction the American officers were dis
charged with the exception of General
Stone and Colonel Groves. Colonel
Groves was absent on a.. exploration at
the time, or he thinks he would have
sbeen discharged with the rest of his
[eountrymen. When he returned, feeling
Mat he would be relieved in a short
me, he asked Tor discharge, which
as given him. In the Egyptian service,
an officer who is honorably discharged

ONE paid. If he resigns, of course, he
ets nothing. Colonel Groves was
onorably discharged and came home.

Egyptian service as a most pleasant
lode, and one to which he will look

?. It partakes somewhat of the nature
of ague, especially as it is attended with
degree OF coldness. This coldness is
first apparent early in the morning OF
the Lords Day, and in many cases sejz

But it bsgins in the region of the heart
and it is sttended with dullness of the
head, followed by yawning and letharpy

Care of the Complexion.

There is no artificial method of pre-
serving the complexion, says an exchange:
The way to insure having proper guam
tity of healthy blood in the skin is to rise
carly, to be much in the open air, es-
t.ciaIly during the hours of sunlight, to
'poid overheated, arti6cially lighted, un-
ventilated rooms, and TO retire early to
lest. To keep the calls which protect
the skin in q natural state, all that is
Accessory is to wash the surface of the
Shiy with soap and water only, or in the
ne of some delicate skins, which the
kali of some soaps initiates, with water
&5ne. Whoever will attend to these

-erve, SIS all ought TO try and preserve
skin in the most healthy, and there
