The negro exodus Kansas this sprip g
has quite overshadowed the threatened
exodus to Liberia which the departure
of large colony from South Carolina
made quite an issue a few months ago.
The bark Monrovia, which has just re-
turned from Liberia, brought back a
number of disgusted emigrants, among
them one family who went out in the
South Carolina colony, but it will soon
start back with another load of negroes
from the Carohnas and Georgia, sent
out by the American Colonization So
ciety. The reports which come from
Liberia are not encouraging; indeed,
they leave little doubt that the republic
is retrograding rather than advancing.
Its Government is extravagant and the
expenditures all the while exceed the
revenue; the inevitable color issue
makes trouble in, jealousy between the
pure blacks and the mulattoes;
England is disputing the right of
Liberia to :. sixty D miles q of her
northwestern boundary and - threat
ems at an early day to make demand
for sixty miles of the southwestern
coast; there are troubles with the sur
rounding tribes, who feel bitter con-
tempt for the imported negroes, which
is heartily reciprocated, and things
seems to be at loose ends generally

Slavery in EgYnt.

The treaty which the Khedive ma.
with England in August, 1877, FIX,
seven years as the limit during viii,
slavery may still exist in Egypt, twel
years as the period for the Soudan.
remains to be seen whether at the ext
ration of these periods public opinit
IN Egypt will have changed sufficient
to permit this reform. At present IL
domestic system OF the West is III
known. All female servants are slave
and as long as the harem system COZ
tlnues they could hardly be otherwis
while all male attendants are not onl
slaves, but they have been cruelty MI
tilated. If you abolish slavery you il
crease polygamy, say the Arabs. A
Arab will take another wife if he cannc
buy slave. Domestic slavery of som
kind seems necessity until education
contact with Europe, and an example i
high places gradually change the habit
and traditions of the East.

Plants for an Aquarium.
WATER LILIES.

WATER LILIES.
In one of the first letters wrote for thepress
described the American Lotus Lily, and sent
out some fifty seeds had to different flower
lovers. The other day heard from one who
has successfully followed my directions, and
she now asks me to write about the white water
lily. presume the lady has reference to our
most interesting aquatic plant, NynapAea Odo-
rata, or Sweet Water Nymph. The flowers are
from three to four inches across, sometimes
tinged with pink, but most commonly thew are,
pure white and deliciously fragrant The
leaves and flowers float gracefully on the sur
face of the water = . .fo...
Time makes great changes in all pursuits of
life. ltwas considered impossible in my earlier
gardening experience to grow and bloom water
lilies, unless a pond of water was to be had.
either real or artificial. All that ia needed.
however, is a tub, which can be made by saving
a barrel in two, taking care, however, that It
Is free from tar oil, or salt Let the tub
be about two feet deep and in the bottom put
| if you can get it. Then lay the root in care
fully, Strengthening out the small fbers; cover
about two inches deep, fill the tub gently with
water and keep it full This is all the care they
require, The tub can be made to initiate 8
miniature pond, by sinking it in the ground and
AndhAuS d uoWor- Ueu around IL. In the winter
you will need to put the tub down cellar Fill
it with water when you put it away and the
Water Lily will come out all right in the spring.
The question, What flowers will grow in the
shaded" is put to me by scores of city people,
whose little patch which they wish to devote
to flowers is so walled up by neighboring
houses that the direct rays of the sun never
touch it. But few, plants will develop their
flowers there, and none will do SO well as if it
were lighted I'D by the SIN at least mart of
the day. Pansies, Fuchsias Lilies of the Val
ley, Vlolets, and some herbaceous plants,
whose first home was the shady woods,
seem to do the best The very best effect
is produced by bed of ornamental foliage
plants. Take the Castor Bean for the center,
and around it Caladium Esculentum, next row
Cannas, and then Gold and Silver-leaf Ger
aniums, Achyranthus, Coleus, ETC. The most
of these can be had at from 10 to 20 cents each :
SO that an outlay of about 80 will produce an
Immediate effect, which is a great item, when
we consider that such beds cannot be filled from
seeds sown in them because of the shade.

every leaf is springing into life, every bud into
blossom. The air is balmy and soft as one can

exhilarating -while midsummer brings depres-
sion with it's intense heat and torrid air. 1t
seems to me a more beautiful day never
dawned, and I cannot enjoy it sufficiently; it's
hours pass too quickly, just as all our pleasant
things must ever do; and we must bear it pa
tiently, knowing spring time and summer, autumn
and winter will still pass in their appointed time
long after we have ceased to exist But, safe in
our Fathers hand, we will enjoy each as it
comes, thankful for life and it's blessings, which
surely are more than its SORROWS, if we can only
be submissive and patient PEGaoTTY.
