First Look in 8 Mirror.

The effect which the sudden seeing of
themselves as others see them had upon
several Siamese women is narrated by a
lady:
A few weeks ago a company of Siamese
women came to see and look at my
house. They considered it great treat
if invited them through my rooms, and
let them look at my bed, my table, my
chairs, my pictures and knick-knacks,
and especially if they can get look at
themselves in the mirror on my bureau.
One or two of those who came had
been before, and they were telling how
they looked in the glass, till the others
were all anxious to see, too, so they
gathered in a crowd and stood before the
mirror.
One quick look, and then surprised,
startled cry, and some of them hid their
faces, others jumped away, and some
looked about to see who was really there.
They had never seen themselves before,
and did not know how miserably they
looked, with their black teeth and
naked bodies. They drew their scarfs
over their breasts and tried to hide
from the sight of themselves.
One turned and said to me: "We
are very hateful-looking; don't you
think 500"
I did not tell them always thought so,
but said:
CHOW, since you know how you look,
is it any wonder that we tell you to
wear more clothes, and to quit chewing
betel?"
Some of them would not be induced to
look the second time, while others stood
and looked.

Austrian Prison Discipline

A feature of Austrian prison discipline
is the practice of compelling the con-
vict to reflect upon his ofense. It is
the discretion of the Judge, on passing
sentence of imprisonment, to prescribe
also compulsory fasting at stated inter
walls every year, and to direct, in addi-
ton to abstention from food, period Of
solitary confinement on each anniversary
of the commission of the crime. I'M
prisonment for twenty years, with these
additional rigors to the sentence, was re-
Gently imposed upon youthful murder
er in Prague. The fasting and solitary
confinement are believed by German
jurists to have valuable reformatory
infuence.-London NeaUs.

a Roman Well Under London
From a Recent London Letter.

But little way from Charing Cross a
narrow alley descends steeply toward the
river. Turning into this by-way we
reached an old brick house, in no respect
differing from the thousands that sur
round it. Knocking at the basement
door, maid appeared and led us down
flight of stone stops, into su b-cellar.
Here, perhaps fifty feet below the level
of the strand, on what in ancient times
must have been the side of steep hill,
is what is known as "The Old Roman
Bath"
It is an arched and vaulted chamber
of brick-work, which antiquarians de-
clare conclusively proves by its construc-
ton its Roman origin, filled with water
so perfectly clear that at first we sup
posed it to be empty, and that we saw
the white brickwork of the bottom
through no other medium than that of
air. The bath is thirteen feet long, six
feet broad, and the water stands at a
depth of nearly five feet. It is not only
marvelously clear, but deliciously cold.
/ do not wonder that in this land where
ice is a costly luxury people throng to
the old Roman spring to drink. In the
same building is another bath, evidently
of later construction, which tradition
attributes to that earl of Essex who was
the favorite of Queen Elizabeth. The
latter is used for bathing, as numerous
limp garments hang on the wall bore
witness, while the former is kept as 8
reservoir of drinking water only.

The Way Garibaldi Fought.

CT do not believe" said MacMahon,
" that he will ever be a general. He
wants comprehensiveness. He cannot
foresee or provide for results distant in
time and space. But he is an admirable
partisan. When he was in Italy with
1000 men, one Of his spies told him
that he had discovered couple of
leagues off, an Austrian force of about
5000 men, who were not aware of his
proximity, and could be surprised and
cut off. The spy was a traitor. There
were 10000 Austrians, and the spy had
been sent to decoy Garibaldi into at
lacking them. With his usual impetu-
osity, he fell into the trap, marched
against the Austrians, and found when
he approached them that they far out
numbered him, aid were prepared.
Most men would have retreated, been
followed, overtaken and destroyed. He
attacked the Austrians with such vigor
that they thought that their spy must
have deceived them and that Garibaldi
was in force. He drove them from their
position and pursued them for couple
of miles, when they discovered the
smallness of his numbers and turned
back on him; his troops, active and un-
incumbered, saved themselves in the
Fortnightly RevieaO.

A LIVERPOOL Orgle.

A "Medical Man " relates the follow
ing incident which came under his own
observation: 81 was called the other
night to see a man in the agonies OF
cholera cramp, apparently the result of
drinking freely on the occasion of his
niece's marriage. He has been already
three weeks out of work through his
indulgence. The father met with an
accident about the same time which
nearly cost him his life, and which,
fear, must also be traced to his own
stupidity when muddled with drink. I
found not less than q dozen persons,
mostly young women, in room, with
full glasses before them, a three-gallon
jar of strong ale on the table and several
bottles of whisky. The latter had been
replenished over and over again. The
revels were kept up for five days, and |
have been assured by the uncle of the
bride, that the drink alone cost them the
sum of EGO. sundry young fellows from
the North End appear to have dubbed
together to meet the cost-had been in
tact saving up for weeks previously SO
as to have regular spree with their
sweethearts on the occasion of their
friends marriage. The father pawned
his watch and several articles of furni-
ture; one young fellow pawned his coat,
hat and watch, and the sum of e5 was
advanced on the security of their names
by the publican, to find its way back
into his till as fresh supplies of liquor
were called for! The debauch, l say,
lasted five days, and the whole party Of
revo11ars-twon!v to thirty in nrm her
slept together on the floors or anywhere
of small three-roomed cottage in one of
the small streets of Toxteth Park. The
revels ended, the whole party, in true
Hibernian fashion, proceeded to the
house of Father Nugent and signed the
pledge."- Liverpool Courier.

teal Standpoint, Waiting for Chem
deal Tests I'm the Laboratory.
At the time of submitting our last
article we started series of experiments
for the benefit of our readers who wish
to investigate this question with us as
we pass along, but owing to circum-
stances over which we had no control,
these results have not, as yet, been
reached, hence we will view milk from
its physiological standpoint, or rather
discuss some of the peculiarities of the
animals, the milk of which is used for
human food. We wish, however, to add
to what we have already said, that the
size and breed of the COWS have an i'm
portant influence on the quantity and
quality of the milk, and, speaking in a
general way, the smaller breeds of cattle
are better for milk containing a large
amount of butter, while the larger
breeds are better for cheese. A friend
came into the laboratory the other day,
and requested the analysis of the first
milk, or beastings. We took 100 parts,
and found it to contain about four times
as much caseine as ordinary milk, the
chemical constituents being as follows:

DIR. LAMBERT BAILED.

peals granting a new trial to Dr. Thomas 8. Lam
bert motion made yesterday TO reduce his bail
from $25, ,OO0 in default of which he has been con-
fined in the Tombs since January 2, 1873 The mo-
tion was made before Judge Barrett in tho Court of
Oyer and Tcrmincr. and gave rise to quite q
long argument. Mr.. Abram Wnkcman appearing on
behalf of Dr. Lambert and District Attorney Phelps
in opposition. Mr.. Wafcman claimed that undor tho
decision of the Court OF Appeals Dr. Lambert
entitled TO his discharge. Mr.. Phelps claimed that
the decision simply meant that the Judgment of the
lower Court nugatory and that the prisoner
must be tried again Judge Barrett said that he
satisfied that he could not discharge the pris-
oncr, the decision of the Appellate Court was not
final. but simply entitled the prisoner to trial de
Mr.. Phelps then said that. under all the circum-
stances of the casc he would not object to tho bail
being fixed at $10,00J, which was the amount before
the conviction. Mr.. Wakeman insisted that this
would be reduction practically OF the bail as MIR.
Lambert could not furnish It, lie urged that as tho
matter stood the Court ought to allow the pris-
to 60 upon his rccognizancc or upon noini-
nal bail.
