Senator McDougal, of California was
taking dinner with some fellow-Senators in
Washington, and Roman punch was served
during one of the courses of the dinner. 4
statesman asked Senator McDougal how he
liked the punch. "Well enough" said
McDougal, ''but you have to eat altogether
too much ice to get any liquor" The same
statesman, whOwas somethingOf wag in
quiet way, made at the same dinner a rather
brilliant remark upon the subject of music.
He said that he was not educated enough
to appreciate music He believed he
might know the difference between
''Old Hundred and Yankee Doodle
At the same time he remarked: II am
very patient man, and can bear music for a
long time" A friend Of his at the dinner
table, stirred by reminiscence of the
punch anecdOte, said that he remembered
once entertaining a country cousin who
never in her life had tasted ice cream. a
dish of superb cream was served up at the
close of dinner, and he noticed that his
country cousin touched upon il very dain-
tily, at the same time without any express
sion of surprise, as though she were not
going to be put down or impressed with
anything which city people might offer her.
Finally he asked her: sally, how do you
like the cream?'' ''The cream itself, said
she, '.seems to be very good, but 1t appears
to be little fetched with frost.

Instruments are divided into stringed and
wind instruments, and sub-divided into SIX
classes, namely, bowed instruments (the
family of violins), wind instruments,
keyed instruments (piano and organ,
stringed instruments (harp, guitar, etc },
instruments of percussion and mechanical
instruments. At the head of these must
be placed the human voice, the first and
the most beautiful OF all instruments. In
strumental music is a melody or a system
of melodies appropriated either to single
instrument or to several together. This
leads us to consider it in two points of view
first, as single music or solo; secondly, as
concerted music. Solos, whether single
or accompanied, comprehend an infinite
number of pieces in various forms and

teen years he has been fond and faithful,

GariDaldi's Marriage.

The marriage of Garibaldi, which has
just been annulled in the Court of Appeals,
took place under romantic circumstances,
which are more widely known in their
general burden than in their detail
Everybody in Europe is aware how, on the
morrow Of his wedding with Signors Raj
mOGdi, he took his departure for Caprera,
and never again consented to see his wife.
How the unfortunate affair was brought
about only few friends remember It
was at the opening of the campaign of 1859.
Garibaldi was scouting the country between
Varose and Como, and was about to give
his troops the order 10 advance, when a
handsome young lady on horseback entered
the camp and requested the favor of an au-
dience. She was the eldest daughter of
the Marchese Raimondi bv sister of the
celebrated cantratrice, Signora Ronconi;
and she brought to Garibaldi, on what
seemed 10 be undoubted authority, the
news of a concentration Of Austrian troops
under Gen. Urban, on the Coma route
Garibaldi protited by the advice, went
through the BorghO Nico pass. and swept
the AUstrians past the lake. The young
Iris on horseback, however, had made such
an impression on his stout heat, that,
directly after the peace of Villafranco, he
proceeded to the Castillo Fino, the seat of
the Raimondi family, where he was hailed
as the liberator of Italy by his fair friend
among all others; seeing which on the same
evening, he asked her hand from her
father. II may be doubted if even a prin-
cess would not have considered such pro-
posal from the hero just then highly fiat
tering. When it is added that the young
lady was an illegitimate child, and the
Marchese an enthusiastic patriot, it viii be
readily understood with what pride and
Joy the latter at once gave his consent.
Indeed, he never seemed to imagine that
his daughter might see the prOifered match
with other feelings than himself. He
hastened to announce it TO the world. and
fixed an early day for the marriage. Mean
while the girl was silent and abashed, as
if overwhelmed with sense of the honor
that befell her, and as the day of the cere-
mony approached, she seemed to baunwell
and took TO her bed. Numerous friends
had been summoned. The illustrious
bridegroom's best man had come on pur-
pose from the end of Italy, and the whole
country was in expectation of the event.
As the young lady, although she complain
ed of general weakness, had evidently no
serious ailment, the Marchese insisted that,
on the appointed day, she should be carried
TO the chapel in an armchair. She tainted
on being brought to the altar, but the we'd
ding took place none the less, and thus she
became the Generals wife. 1t was ON the
castle, ON the unhappy girls confession that
she had been false to him. She has since

Ladies' Habits

The shorter and tighter ladies habit
skirts are the safer they are; also there
should be two straps Of elastic-one for the
right foot and the other to go on the heel
of the left foot. BY these means. if the
habit be well cut, there is no possibility of
the skirt getting caught on the leaping-head.
have had several falls and have always
come clear from the saddle. Another
safety is to have the leaping-head quite
close up to the pommel round which the
right leg is put. Sadde-makers are very
fond of putting it low down and making it
long and curved, which prevents ladies
being kicked or bucked Off, but which keeps
them fixed like vice, SO that if their horse
comes down they cannot get away from
him. If the pommel is small, high up,
ana close 20 the other, it ought to be quite
sufficient for good rider, and at the same
time, if the horse falls, it leaves you free
to get away from him, for it is almost i'm
possible for lady to throw herself out of
the saddle when the horse falls and thus get
clear of him as most men do. The number
of hunting ladies has increased so much of
late years that every precaution ought to
be taken to avoid possible accidents.

Texas. The sexton tried to persuade him
to leave it at the door on entering the
church; but he persisted in carrying it
across his shoulder as he walked with his
bride up to the altar rail. His explanation
was that a rival suitor had threatened to
shoot him on this occasion, and he meant
to be prepared for defence. At Port Town

frequently remarking that he couldn't

his dEnner was brought He looked 1t
over, sent the waiter back for some roast
veal and another onion, remarking that
his stomach was weak, he had been SUI
fering terribly from dyspepsia, and
couldn't eat everything, but at last got
to work and cleared the dishes.
The matter of dessert troubled him
some because his stomach was so weak
but he finally ordered minCe pie, plum
pudding, and ice-Cream, with a cup Of
coffee. They were brought and devoured
and then he called the waiter and made
him q confidential communication TO the
effect that he had been sick with dys-
pepsia. that his stomach was weak, he
couldn't eat everything. and would shs
bring him bowl Of milk?
The milk was brought, he CTumbled
some bread therein, and as his younger
companion had departed, the man with
the weak stomach remarked to the gem
tleman across the table from him that it
was darned rough to have to come down
to bread and milk, but he had been sick,
he couldn't eat anything, and he had to
be careful.
And now the landlord is anxious for
that man to come around when he IS
well. He needn't come but once.
