had the effect to ameliora,e the condition OF
l,,uc proport!uu Of the slaves. On many
nI.ntations 1hev are allowed privileges that
were not formerly accorded them. LII many
instances they are paid wages 10 '''e a.no"l'
of $40 a month, about one-half what lhey
rould earn if free. The work on sugar plan

we were allowed to visit the dirty feeding

were passed from hands and placed upon a
rough bench-like table that had apparently
never been cleaned. Each one took his
%rations, consisting of a few boiled potatoes

III the two hands squatted down in some
vacant place and quickly devoured the food.
1t was like feeding swine, and the place was
as flthy as a hog pen. We visited the chill
dren's hall. 1t was a covered balcony, eight
or ten feet wide, on one side of a building
seventy or eighty feet long. Here were sew
enty babies and children, from infants in
baskets to little boys and girls from two to
ten years old, nearly all of them stark naked.
There were, perhaps, a dozen mothers and
nurses caring for them. There was no regard
Tor cleanliness; a housing place for cattle and
hogs would be kept more tidily by a decent
owner of the animals. From this balcony
we passed into a large hall used as a %lylng-in
hospital, and here are dirty beds of straw and
rag where women are confined. The place
is repulsively sickening and the atmosphere
nauseating. The lower animals would be
better cared for by any man who is not him
self indefinitely worse than a brute than are
helpless women in distress here. In another
section of this story of the building are a
dozen or more bloodhounds confined in their
kennels. Their hoarse, demoniac growIlngs
are first to salute the ear of the newborn
babe-fit accompaniment of the wailing of
the infant slave. God pity the poor innocents

The Presentations OF Chess.


There are curious, but well authenticated,
anecdotes showing what destinations chess
possesses for some minds. We Lave heard of
Her Majesty's ships being nearly nun ashore
through the captain, absorbed in his combine
lions. not needing the repeated representations
of his lieutenant that they were getting
u]icommonly hear the land. There was once
Il Caliph of Bagdad who would not be dis
lurhed i'll his game, though his city was being
carried by assault. And Charles MI of
Sweden, when hardly beset by the Turks in
his house at Bender, was at least as much
interested in beating his antagonist across the
board as in beating off the Turks. Again, the
Elector Of Saxony, taken prisoner at the battle
of Muhlberg by the Emperor Charles V, was
playing chess with a fellow prisoner when
tidings were brought to him that he had been
sentenced to death. He looked up for a
moment to remark upon the irreeularity Of
the proceeding, and then resumed the game,
which, to his, great delight, he won. When
we add that Frederick the Great and Marshal
SAKE were enthusiasts for the game, who will
say il is not u pastime in which it is worth
while to excel? Though many persons are
dcbarred by other occupations from ~devoting
to it sufficient attention, those who have the
leisure may remember the diclum of the Duke
of Wellington, which is applicable L" all
pursuits, that What is worth doing at all i
worth doing well."-Sr turday Retitr.
