Reyelry in Mexico.

A description Of the house in which
Gen. Trevino and his bride are located,
and some other matters. may be inter-
esting to your readers. The house is
elegantly and tastefully furnished. and
has spacious court yard, lined with
trees, flowers, and shrubbery. All the
rooms are large and we'll ventilated.
Stables and carriage house are attached.
The house fronts south l20 feet. with q
depth of 210 feet. 1t is one story and
built on the side of a hill. The ser.
wants quarters are entirely separate
from the main building. and when the
front door is locked all is closed. 1t is
SO constructed that its Inhabitants can
see what is going on in any part OF 1t,
especially in the servants quarters.
On the evening OF the eth day OF ar
rival, the band of the "a Cavalry and
the 2Sth Infantry serenaded the Gen.
eral and lady. The bands consolidated
for the occasion, aud numbered forty
two pieces. The streets were crowded
as long as the bands played.
On Wednesday ball was given at
the Casino of Monterey in honor Of
Gen. Trevino and lady, at which the
wealth and beauty of the city were pre-.
sent. The music for the ball was by q
string band, and during the intervals
between the dances the 18th Infantry
band played sweetly in the court yard
of the Casino. Dancing commenced at
10 2. NJ, and continued until 4 A. M,
excepting the interval devoted to sup
per. The health of the bride and groom
was drank, and Senator Francisco Sada
delivered apoem dedicated to the bride.
Don Ignacio GarliEdo made avery neat
speech.
On Monday, the 10th inst, the cere-
mony of civil marriage took place in
the salon of the Generals house by
Judge Melchoa NiIlareal, with the
necessary number of witnesses. Last
night ball was given at Ell Teatro del
Pregreso, in honor of Gen. Trevino and
lady, by the Governor and the civil and
military dignitaries of the State and re-
public. The ball opened with quad
rifle, Mrs. Trevino dancing with the
Governor, and the General with Miss
Lola Marquin. The ladies were su-
perbly dressed. The theater was hand
somely decorated, and the floor for
dancing carpeted. About 5000 lights,
red, green, and white. illuminated the
theater and supper room.
The carpet. dark Brussels, was
dotted with gold leaf, which had been
sprinkled over it. The private boxes
were filed. The view from the door
was like peeping into fairyland. 1 am
told that the attendance at this ball was
greater than at any ball that has been
given in this city Tor the last eight or
ten years. In tho DANA about $50
couples occupied the floor.
No hats were lost or exchanged. The
supper and wines were excellent. and
plenty for all. AS generous expendi-
ture, bar was open during the ball,
free to all, where you could obtain any.
thing you wished, from champagne
down to mescal. About A. NJ. the
music ceases, lights are put out, and
the grand ball belongs to the past.-San

Mills tor Marbles.

Almost all the marbles with
which boys everywhere amuse them.
selves, in season and out of season. on
sidewalks and in shady spots, are made
at Oberstein, Germany. There are
large agate quarries and mills in that
neighborhood, and the refuse is turned
to good account in providing the small
stone balls for experts to "knuckle"
with. The stone is broken into small
cubes, by blows of light hammer.
These small blocks of stone are thrown
by the shovelful into the hopper of q
small mill, formed of q bedstone, hay
ing its surface grooved with concentrate
burrows; above tAis is the runner, :"
which is of some hard wood, having a
level face on its lower surface. The
upper block is made to revolve rapidly;
water being delivered upon the grooves
OF the bedstone where the marbles are
being rounded. It takes about fifteen
minutes to finish half bushel of good
marbles. ready for the boys knuckles.
One mill will turn out 1863, 900 marbles
per week. The very hardest crackers. :"
as the boys Call them, are made by q
slower process, somewhat analogous
to the other.-Am. MachiniSt.

A Blessing in a Poem.

Religious newspaper poetry has its
use, though in literary quality it may
be very humble. y Christian lady,
gone many years since to the better
land, once copied some simple verses
by an unknown author, upon the blank
leaves Of little Bible. The Bible she
gave as present to her o!des. son, then
child.
The boy became sailor. lie roamed
all over the world, and carried the
Bible with him IN his " sea-chest." One
day the news Of his mothers death
was carried to him. This recalled to
his mind the good Book she had given
him, and also the lines traced by the
hand of love upon its hy-leaves. lie
faithfully followed the counsel they
gave him, and gave Christ his service
and his love.
These facts came to the knowledge Of
tue editor of religious journal in New
York City. He published the poem,
introducing it by repeating It's history
in connection with the sailor. The
poem makes no prctension to merit,
but its excellence is in its pure and
holy sentiment. 1t is entitled "a
Mothers Gift, lines addressed to my
Charlie, with Bible)," and the fol
lowing is the opening stanza:
$50 young, you cannot pleasure take
In this, but, for your mother sake,
The gift you will not spurn;
And oh my child, in after years,
When forced to shed life's bitter tears,
Then to this volume turn
Not long ago an elderly clergyman,
the widowed father of this same young
sailor, sat by the dying bed of Chris
tian sea captain. One of the sick man s
slast act was to point to his little Bible,
that he had carried with him through
all his voyages, and call the minister's
attention to soiled slip pasted inside
one of the covers.
1t was the little poem a Mothers
Gift clipped from that religious
journal. The captains own mother
had cut it out and placed it with her
gift to her son, whose nane, too, was
"Charlie and it had been blessed to
him.
During the late war a young Chris
tian soldier from Western Massachu-
sets lay sick in a hospital at Baton
Rouge. His comrades had gone for
ward into action, and the brave boy
chafed SO bitterly in his inconsistencies
and forced confn ement as to aggravate
his fever, and threaten the worst con-
sequences.
While his spirit was sinking in the
gloom of despair, draft of air tossed a
bit Of torn newspaper near him. lie
picked it mp, and his eye caught two
lines of poem-the only lines legible
on the paper
"No night so dark but Mercy brings
Some solacs borne on starry wings"
The eonsoling verses revived his
hope and courage, and he began to re-
cover. He carefully saved the lines,
but it was not till Icing afterwards that
he knew they were part of New Years
hymn written by his own father. The
Northern paper in which it was printed
had found its way to the army, dire ct ID
to some soldier friend.-Youth's Com

What Allied Jones.

Brown and Jones used to be friends
real good friends-but there is q
chasm between them new. Jones didn't
know of 1t until Brown had passed him
several times without saluiing, and
then he determined to know what was
wrong. Hating him on the street he
began:
"See here, Brown, what's come over
you all of q sudden ?"
"Sir" replied Brown, with freezing
dignity, as he drew himself up an extra
inch.
"What have I said or done to break
our friendship ?" continued Jones.
Mr.. Jones, you are not the sort OF
a man I supposed you to be-" answered
Brown.
"In what respect?"
"Sir. you were delegate to our
County Convention"
" Yes, I was"
For the past seven years you have
protested to be my friend, politically
and otherwise"
$50 I have-so I have"
"Do you remember, sir, of our hav-
ing talk about week before the con-
vention ? Do you remember that I said
that isl hinted-that is"
ooh, yes, You said that perhaps you
could be induced to accept the nomina
ton of County Treasurer.
"Yes, sir. I said that was in the
hands of my friends"
~ remember it now"
And I didn't get q vote, sir-not
even o complimentary voter'
"No, guess you didn't, and now
you blame me for it. Alas! Brown,
how little you know about our local
politics. Why, sir, every man who at
tended ward caucus over three times
knows that when a candidate puts him
self in the hands of his friends they at
once proceed to hold funeral and
bury the remains ten feet deep!"
Jones made motion as if to shake
hands and forgive all, but suddenly
changed his mind and walked on, care
fully placing each heel with thud and
keeping his spinal column as stiff as a
poker. - Detroit Press.

Good Luck.

Rev. A. Z. Lawrence gave some good
advice, that Is worth repeating, to the
graduating class of the Newton High
School. :" I hope" he said, "nene of
you belong to that most unfortunate
class who imagine themselves lifted
above the necessity of effort; who think
that their family position. or their
fathers wealth, or little money of
their own, is going to bring the world
to them, and that the oyster is quietly
coming to open itself for them when
they are ready to eat it. The oyster is
q great deal more likely to swallow
them"
A classmate said to me, when we
were leaving college together, "Well.
good.by, now good-by; we will meet
again on the floor of the Senate Cham.
Der at Washington"
We have never met there yet, and the
chances are growing small that we ever
shall. Nor has it been altogether my
fault. The world swallowed him up
after commencement, and nothing has
ever been heard of him from that day
to this.
In this struggling life there is no
place for "lucky" men. The prizes
are for the workers. why are you in
such haste ?" said one the other day to
man who has made his mark in the
world, Why not wait and see what
will turn up?"
"Turn mp !" he replied, II never
knew anything to turn up for me in
his world unless I turned it up l"
