THE SEE0E Fs.EEEEs.

A Londoner, says the Whitehall Rsriem,
recently told a reporter Of one OF those
awkward contretempts, which, happily,
are OF rare occurrence. lie was travelling
in Some1setshire, and had for his compan-
ions reverend; enileman, with his wife,
daughter and maid. Conversations after
Il Willie became mutual, and the :fsol,a9nel
opened the subject Of education. among
other things. Said he to the reverend
gentleman:
"a curious question was put to my sis

ALGERIA.

When Algeria was first colonized by the
French, it WAS intended that it should III
val India and Egypt. Cotton-growi was
undertaken, and much money was ex-
pended in encouraging it; but in 1876
seventeen Europeans only We're engaged
in it, 3G0 acres only We're under clltiya-
ton, and the harvest amounted to but lit
tie more than 900 pounds. Cattle
breeding, coIn-croWing, and the euitiva-
lion of vines, promise apparently 10 be
more successful; but the Development OF Ill
these industries il iinpa!Iei! by the prevail
ing system Of military government. III
1877, $4,000 acres We're planted in vine
yards, and the total produce amounted to
1850 900, gallons. Fortunately, also, the
dreaded pllylloxe1a has not yet appeared
on the Algerian vines. As Algeria Is 50
close to France, cattle-breatling would bea
far more profitable pursuit than it is, were
it not for the unfriendly relations which
exis between the European cattle-oWners
and the Arabs. Neither has hoT&e-breed-
ing made any great progress, although I'M
der the dominion Of the Turks Algeria
possessed an abundance of excellent riding
horses. Once, ALSO Algeria was we'll
wooded country; but HOW, III consequence
Of the reckless destruction Of trees, this is
no longer the case.

Thomas Mulick is a poor shoemaker in

and the winter had brought severe hard
ships, and short time ago the eldest lad,
Thomas, although but thirteen years Of
age, started for Cohoes in the hope that in

thus lessea the burden at hofne lie was
but scani!y clad, and privation had weak

broken, without money to pay his fare, he
turned his face homeward, and started on
his lonesome walk up the track of the
Central Railroad. He never saw home
again In the morning the dead body Of
the boy was found lying in snow,lrift by
the side of the railroad track. It was eyi-

ner.
The woman who has reached maturity
without ever having had adesire to marry
| is either mentally or physically imperfect
or else is, as it We're, a wooden doll, or q
partially animated piece of wax work. She
may pride herself on whatshe thinks is he1
excessive modesty, but her ardent sister,
who honestly longs for areal and i've man
to be her con1fortfor life Id just as:x xaeeaest,
ts1id quite as sensible. 1t ii not always the
case that the longing Of the girl who wants
to marry assumes the form of outward and
verbal expression.
There are thousands of bashful fellows
who have had on their tongues the prop
ositions they would fain have uttered, but
were frightened by the fear that the girls
would refuse them, when at the very time
the dear creatures We're hoping and longing
for these same individuals to give them an
opportunity to accept.
But there are at leasta thousand and one
ways in which girl may with propriety
communicate to almost any bright young
man her IDEAS concerning him. These are
not set down in the guide books. They are
not a part of our written literature. They
come not by rule and regulation. They are
above and beyond all these and responsible
to no law, Impossible though it be to de-
fine them i'll words, the language of love
speaks to them more plainly than voice
hardly any young man asking a young.
lady to marry him ought to be refused. If
he has all the component elements of sound
good sense, he knows before he asks the
question what its answer will be. If he is
refused, it shows that he is not quite as
smart as he thought he was. His defeat is
mortitying. The girl may have wanted to
marry, but he was not the man of her choice.
She will leave him to heal at his leisure the
wounds Of his suffering heart, while she
takes her chances th&t somebody else may
offer who will prove to be more acceptable
The youth gains wisdom by experience,
and after his first grief is assuaged, which
may possibly be not very long, he seeks
permanent consolation in some other di~
rection, this time taking his stens with such
careful caution as to prevent him from re-
peating the blunler.
