American vs.. English Beauty.
North American Review.


While the beauty of the English girl
may endure longer than that of her
American sister, yet American beauty
has this sovereign advantage-thalt it
best bears close-observatien. The Eng
lish beauty appears best at distance,
and grows homely as We approach her;
the, typical American beauty appears
more attractive near at hand; IN her case
nearness brings 'enchantment. The
American face bears the microscope
mainly by reason of its delicacy, ifneness
and nobility of expression, qualities that
are only appreciated on nearness of ex-
preston.
The ruddiness or freshness, the health
suggesting and Notwithstanding face of
the English girl seems Incompatible
when partially veiled, or when a few rods
away; but, as she comes nearer, these ex-
ceiling characteristics retreat behind the
Irregularities of the skin, the thickness
of the lips, the size Of the nose, and the
observer is mildly stunned by the disap-
pointment at not finding the nimble and
automatic play of emotion in the eyes
and features without which female beauty
must alwsysfall below the line OF supreme
authority. The English 'beauties Of ma
tional and international fame, rat whose
feet the Empire of Great Britain is now
kneeling, are of the American type, and
in this country they would be held sim
ply rs of average rather than exceptional
excellence. sef elst "s# Il,n

Coal Mining Iva ireland.
TPnll Mall Gazptta

Coal mining appears to have been prac-
ticed in Ireland in very aficient times.
The Ballycastle Collieries are evidently
of great antiquity. I'm l770 the miners
at work there discovered a Icing gallery
cut in the rock. cut of which branched
many chambers driven into the bed Of
coal Here were found the remains of
tools and implements used in mining,
but in such decayed state that on be-
ing touched they fell TO pieces. In ear
ly days State protection on a limited
scale seems to have been extended to
Irish coal operations. We find Swift in
the letters from which we have already
quoted drawing the attention Of "a very
worthy member OF Parliament" lthe Irish
Parliament) to this circumstance.
Looking back" he writes, "into the
journals OF your House last session, and
the state of the accounts, i find consid-
cradle sum Of money (no less than
B4,00O1 allow,d for the encouragement
of Irish COAL. e. for laying in suffi-
cient stock OF our own coal to lower the
extrayagant price of the Whitehayen
coal, which i,ost no hess than sos. per ton
the hast winter, when the Irish Bally-
castle) coals were sold at Ids. and los. per
tom" Thi fund, however, must have
been slamefully mismapaged, for the
Dean of St. PatricKs goes on to say that
"when the city was starving for want of
Goals there was not one barrel of Irish
coal to be had at any rate, and for want
of stock the Whitehaven celliers i'm
posed upon us what rates they pleased" :"
In the present day much the same ap-
athy is displayed in ceal4mining opera
tions in Ireland. Some slight improve
ment has been apparent during the last
few years, there being now fifty-one col
lieries at work as compared with thirty
four in 1867, with corresponding in
crease of produce. The actual output
now, however, is under 10000 tons, of
which bnt $4,000 tons, from Ulster and
Connaught, are OF flaming coal. The
annual import from England and
Wales-chieiy now from the Principal
ity-exceeds 100000 tons in weight,
which are consumed in manufactures or
by the inhabitants of such large
towns as Dublin, Belfast, Cork, Linn
erick, etc, and by the country gentlemen,
many of whom in daysgone by were sat
isfied to burn turf. Besides the bitumin-
| Gus coal mined in the counties north of
Dublin and the anthracite or "glance"
coal of the southern counties lignite-a
species of fuel between coal and wood--is
found in considerable quantities in the
County of Antrim, and has been worked
in years such as the present, when turf
has failed and coal has been selling at a
very high price. 1t is important to no
tice that the fpe-damp is unknown in
Irish collieries.

Hunting villa Geese wish Oxen.

Shooting wild geese was, in the early
days Of California, an important indus
try with these men who hunted for the
market. and was very attractive to the
few amateurs that indulged in the sport.
In those days goose shooting was a profit
able business for the hunter, and it was
no uncommon thing for the skillful one
to make from $100 to $3.50 day, even
when he obtained but four or five Shots
"a shot in hunters parlanee meaning the
discharge Of both barrels).
The system pursued by the market
hunters i'm shooting the geese was as fol
lows: A docile OK was generally selected
by the hunter for his attendant. Then
the geese were sought on the large open
plains, where they fed all through the
day, going to water and returning MORN
ing and evening. The hunter marked a
flock half or three-q quarters of annie
away and then put.his OK in motion, al
lowing him to feed as he went along, in
order to make the geese remain uncon-
scious of the lurking figure that moved
behind the oK's body.
Old goose hunters affirm that these
oxen seemed to take delight in assist
ing the shooter to work up his game.
They would approach the geese in an in
direct way, never going straight toward
them, and apparently feeding as they
went along. 1t is also asserted that the
geese used actually to know, after being
shot at once or twice, the hunters oxen.
AS soon as the hunter got within shot, he
discharged both barrels, one at the geese
on the ground and the other asthey rose,
bsgging from thirty to sixty geese.
He either rested the gun on the ox's
back. or allowed bim to pass on, and then
raked them with his small cannon. The
gun used was generally six-bore, and
never less than four, weighing from four
teen to sixteen pounds, and the charge
was from eight to ten drachmsof powder
and two to three ounces OF shot. There
were at least half dozen engaged in this
business, whose wealth might be COM
puted at from $4,000 to $4,000, alto.

Handy's fault was in not swearing Collins to the identity of the stranger-a thing which our notaries appear to do every day.

HriZona Exports.

Ouitc an unexpected shipment is an nounced of 100000 pounds (lGG6 bush. eI-) of wheat from Arizona to Liver pool, England. From a land that has | the reputation of being made up oi rocks and desert, this announcement will be decidedly startling. But to those who have examined the grain grown in the valleys of Arizona there will be no surprise in the above an nouncement. The tillable portion of Southern California and Arizona pro duce the finest and most valuable grains known to commerce. In a few years the great flour markets of the world will send to California and Ari- zoua for the most valuable kinds Of wheat and four The amount may not be overwhelming. but the quality will be rare and valuable. Like the famous Haxall four of Richmond, Va. the flour of Southern California ahsorIs large amount Of water, and from is peculiar strength produces a large and seemly loaf of bread, which makes the flour much sought after by bakers and dealers.

When the railway is completed tC stations east of Tucson the trade of this place will be somewhat changed as to localities, but not diminished in amount. Looking at distances, topog raphy, etc, It seems clear that the mails, express, freight, and, in fact, all traffic of the Globe country with the railway will connect at Tucson. Those who have studied the subject with a view to future business are firmly of this opinion, and they look upon the new road now under construction be tween Tucson and Globe City as one of the most important, not only 10 Tucson but to Globe as well. This new busi- ness tributary 10 Tucson is one of magnitude, and one that will continue until another railway shall be built near to that rich section, and from the present outlook the chances are ten to one that when such railway is built il will connect directly with Tucson and still more largely benefit this place.
 In view of the new wagol road now being built between the two points and the early completion of the railway to Tucson, move is already or foot to secure a tri-weekly mail over he new route, and the magnitude of tle busi- ness interests in the premises would seem to call for six-day if lot full daily service. Often mail facilities are asked for with but small interests to be served, but in this instance they are decidedly large, with a certainty of rapidly growing. The present monthly production of gold and silver of Globe, inaccessible as it now is, ac- cording to the most reliable informa- ton at hand, is over S5O,OOO per month, with steady increase and the mines de veloping very well.
 Tucson people will be promoting their own interests Tn doing all they can to complete the new road in the best manner and quickly, too, for when done the business before spoken Of will pass over it.
