An Irish Gathering.

The crowd that gathers whenever .
land meeting is held in Ireland seems
strange enough to English eyes. As q
correspondent of the Pail Mall Gazette
pictures the scene, the old-fashioned
tail-coat with brass buttons, knee
breeches, and CATERS, is sometimes
deserted, and reminds spectators Of
Irish melodrama. The number Of
women is singularly large. With bare
feet and bare heads they stand for hours,
even when the rain is pouring, listening
eagerly to the speeches, and cheering
every strong point. There is no marked
prevalence Of one type of feature or
complexion. Auburn tresses float in
the wind beside raven locks. When the
rain batters down with exceptional Sc
verify, under the stimulus Of . squat,
the shawl il raised from the neck over
the head, and comfort seems to be &C.
cured. There Is little beauty, hut .
fair amount Of comeliness and that soft
ness and smoothness Of skin nearly uni
versally found in damp climates. The
manners Of the crowd are quite admir-
able; no loud talking or coarse joking
or offensive laughter can be heard any
where. Those who imagine that a

A few devout worshipers were IL

Majesty proceeded TO judge tho evil
spirits.
The Chinese consider IN mad persons

request Is granted, and runners ordered
to. bring one of the evil spirits to be
judged. They rush OF with yell to
obey this order, and presently they are
to be seen ct the far end hurrying along
one Of these unfortunate people. In the
midst of frightful yells, the flames Of the
immense pile Of paper money making
the whole court ~ light - day, this poor
wretch Is brought into his 1ajesty's
presence. He was . tail, powerful man,
his face pale though passive; but If his
acts gave any clew to the state Of his
mind he was the only sensible person
there, for he refused to kneel! The ex-
element became intense. The runners
threw themselves upon him with fierce
energy to force him to kneel, but he was

Another was brought forth with the

the ankles with the light bamboo. A
straw figure was brought forth to repre-
sent him, and he was obliged to look on
while it received the punishment.

Curious Idol Worship in China.

A LETTER from Hangchow says: A
curious display of idol worship is be-
ing nightly enacted not far from this
city. 1t is not easy to determine to what
sect it belongs, for, though held in a
Taoist temple, no priest of either that or
any other takes part in the ceremony.
1t is entirely carried out by the people
themselves, and being in the seventh
moon, when the names of the departed
receive so much attention from their
living relatives, it may be correct tn
consider it part of ancestral worship
At the beginning of the moon proclama-
tons were posted all over the city an
nouncing the commencement of this
strange ceremony, and calling on the
people to come up and pay their taxes
or duties to Yuh-whang Shung-ti, "lord
of the world and savior of men," as
they do to their earthly Emperor. Each
night, from the 1st to the 18th of the
seventh moon, this parody on royalty is
carried out, and delegates from various
districts bring strings of paper sycee,
which is weighed with the greatest care,
as if it were real silver, entered in the
account books of an official, and at a
proper time in the ceremony is sent up
to the spirits, through fire. An idea of
the quantity of paper money consumed
may be formed from the price received
for the ashes, which realizes total for
this half month at 16 cash an or. of not
less than $50.
The real business of the evening COM
mences after dusk. The procession,
which goes out of the village in order to
return escorting the spirit of the EN-
peror, begins to form. Each man car
ries . lantern, with the name of his dis
trict or society painted on it. The main
temple and all the lesser ones are bril-
liantly lighted up with rows of lanterns
of red cloth, and some place large
reflectors behind candles, the effect Of
which is very pleasing. Theatrical
dresses of the most gorgeous colors, and
heavy with gold lace, pass along in
groups; boys dressed in red cloth and
gold tinsel hats, men bearing swords,
spears, and battle-axes, and bands of
musicians, 20 to make up this unique
procession. The center of all this Is the
Emperor's chair, carried BY, twelve
bearers, containing his tablet; Sman on

the family.
One thing was certain, John Goodwin s
visits were very pleasant; and no one was

much with propriety.
No sooner were we settled in the new
house than father was seized with one of
his periodical cattle-buying fits. We begged
of him to rest o little and enjoy his ease, but
in vain. In Illinois this desire to trade in
cattle becomes, like intemperance or the
opium habit, mania.
Being custodian or banker for the money
used in this cattle trade, found the new
safe mentioned before thing of great con-
venience.

the further end of the closet. Being of the
same width as the closet, some woodwork,
added after the safe was in place, fastened
il securely in its position. It could only be
moved by tearing away the woodwork the
whole length of the closet.
We found life now quite different from
what it had been on the farm. Less Of care
and more Of dress, and regard for the re.
quirements of society.
We made some very pleasant new &C.
quaintances; and, since we did not lose any
old friends by being little greater distance
from them, the removal was gain Of some
thing.
So the daysand weeks rolled by until the
holidays were at hand. The parties and So
cial gatherings Of the country were simple
affairs, with so little Of formality or ceremony
that . stranger might almost call them rude.
A genuine ball none Of Us had ever attended;
can you wonder, then, that country girls
like sister Kate and should have dreams Of
unusual splendor concerning the Governors

"You had better go to the bank with his

"Nonsense; why, who is going to rob this
Then, who knows but ourselves il there is a

Mrs. BrasSey tells of very stricI
monastery on Mount Athos; "On the the
summit there is the strictest monastery
in the world. Not female animal OF
any kind is allowed within miles, so that
the monks have to do without milk or
fresh eggs even, and travellers are not
allowed to carry even dead hens on
their saddles for provision. A few years
ago two English ladies landed here from
a Yacht. As most of the men here wear
natticoats and the women trousers, and
The monks have not much experience IN

A schoolgirls Folly.

II is the old story. But the alarm
bell repeats again and again its note of
warning, therefore we re-tell it.
She was the daughter of 8 well-to-do
farmer, and a schoolgirl of fourteen.
He was youth of twenty-five, dissi-
Pated, but fascinating. They met, and
though he was almost a stranger, she
invited him to her "old Kentucky
home" He called once, and was told
bythe father, who understood him, not
to call again. But she, though warned,
would meet him clandestinely again
and again. She was full of romance,
and he of subtlety. Deaf to her fathers S
warning and blind to the young mans
dlsslpation, she consented to elope
with him. They ran away and were
married.
In a few months Fleming, for that was
me husbands name, grew tired of his
glrl-wife. She knew it not. for her
eyes were closed by her love. But one
night she awoke to the fact that she had
marned brute, who hated her. He
came home maddened with drink, and
struck her with q hatchet. Even then
sne refused to listen to her fathers ur-
gent request for her to return to the old
