American Snobisln.

In the Book OF Snobs we read:
"First the world was made; then, as a
matter of course, snobs; they existed

America Yet for whom else can the

German Women as Labcrers.

In Germany ard Austria women seem
to DO the most OF the farm work, and
often the heaviest part Of it, They pitch
the hay upon the wagon, while the man
if there be one Of the party-receiycs
and stores it, have seen many Of
them plowing, and others with scythe or
sickle, holding their line with men. 10
sweep the streets of great cities, to
trandle overburdened wheelbarrows or
handcarts through streets crowded with
swift-going droschkics, to split, saw or
pile irewood, to serve as uuskilled labor
crs in glass and iron works, foundries
and machine shops, to carry stone,
bricks, SIND and mortar TO masons
and hricklavers working on the upper
stories Of the highest buildings, will
not seem to the average American
woman strictly feminine occupa-

the mothers Of many future American cit-

Disturbances in Jupiter.

According to q writer in the Rochester
Democrat and Chronicle, there is trouble
i'll the giant planet Jupiter, which is
shining SO brilliantly these cool August
nights. \ great spot, estimated to be
$4,000 miles in diameter, is conspicuous
on the planets disc. IL has been visible
Tor TWO years, says M. Urouye)ot, of
Cambridge, Mass, although its appear
ance has not been generally known until
recently. 1t is probable that on the
first discovery OF the spo, the color was
not strongly pronounced, or it would
have been more generally observed.
Dr. Swift, Of Rochester, saw the spot
for the first time only few weeks ago.
The only explanation thus far given is
that there is Il rent in the cloud covering
Of Jupiter, revealing the red hot body
of the planet. This explanation hardly
explains, although it is generally con-
ceded that Jupiter is a glowing mass,
and shines partly by its own light.
Many remarkable changes have recently
taken place in the appearance of
-
spot cannot fail to notice the white,
cloud-like spots between the great
copper-colored equatorial belts. the
great central belt seems to be broken up
into white cloud masses lying at inter
walls along the Jovian equator. The
copper color of the outer belts extends
in some places across the equatorial
regions, usually occupied by bright
belt of creamy white. North and south
of the great equatorial belts and abont
half way to the poles are narrow, irreg-
ular salmon-colored belts, that present
a very beautiful appearance. The blue
colorlng about the pores seems less pro-
nounced than usual. 1t is more than
probable that in the mighty changes
going on in Jupiter, adds the Chronicle,
we are witnessing the phenomena Of
world growth, and that the giant planet
is slowly undergoing under our very
eyes, the notifications necessary to tit
it for habitation.

TIE TGyE EAUCaTH,

Is there one who has sense Of power,
And patient waitnf, hour by hour
For the sovu seed To shape liza flower?
lie is the hope OF liberty.
His quiet patience is not weak,
He knows the ages when they speak;
Fair natures flush is on his cheek;
He is part of Liberty.
He loves the winds that past him blow,
The wi, e, sweet starlight's ceaseless how,
The Golden moons soft motion slow.
For these are gifts OF Liberty.
lie hates the noise and cant Of creed
And muttered curse, and evil deed,
And midnight torches evil speed.
For these are foes Of Liberty.
He loves the lives that beat as chimes
From great hills rung in troublous times,
The flame of burns, the Corn Law Rhymes
All precious seed of Liberty.
He knows the ways are hard and long.
lie does not curse the wise and strong,
Or fight the lines of wrong with wrong.
For he has faith in Liberty.

wife should have taken the emperor for
a police spy. However, he mustered all
his courage and arrived with the vases
at the Tuilleries, where he was immedi-
ately ushered into the presence of Ma
polecn, who thus addressed him:
$50, sir, l have found you at last--I
am glad to see you here.
Then taking from drawer in his
desk eight bank notes for a thousand
francs each, he presented them to the
dealer, who was trembling with fear, and
with difficulty advanced to receive them.
And then, with that peculiar sarcastic
brevity with which lie invariably spoke
when he wished to reproach, he added:
81 went the other day to your shop
l bargained for two vases; your wife
asked four thousand francs, telling me
that they cost her five thousand. Well,
although that was falsehood, now
give you eight thousand; take them.
There ara four for the vases and four
for yourself. But tell your wife if she
does not attend to her domestic affairs,
instead of politics, l will send her where
she will be taken care of, and you, too,
to teach you both to be more silent. Go,
sir; that is all have to say to you
Good day."
