their noses at it,-their fiat noses, Lord
Beaconsfield would have said,-as ga
pretty echo of alien Europe" Just as
they pretend to admire Walt Whitman
and the Pike county variety OF litera-
ture. while Lowell, and Longfellow,
and even Hawthorne and Irving, whom
Americans have been in the habit OF
regarding as peculiarly American,
are spoken of as mere imitatOrs of
English literature. so they prefer the
negro to the white delegates from the
United States,-not because OF any SUI
periority. for it would be absurd to
pretend that the negroes had any, but
because they are different from any
thing that the Englishmen see at home.
The Englishmen whose thought is ex-
pressed by Lord Roehampton, in EN-
dymion." who said that Americans
borrowed their language, their laws,
and their religion from England, un-
doubtedly feel that the Americans al
so borrow their white skins from the
same source. In a black American
they see something original; not an
imitation of an Englishman. The
characteristics that they dislike in
white Americans, even if they found
them in the black variety, they would
not dislike-they would only be amused
or interested in the discovery. Their
preference for the southern over the
northern white delegates seems to be
simply a survival of the old British
sympathy with the confederacy; the
sympathy with shareholders of men
who pretended to abhor slavery, and
who never lost chance to denounce
the republic because it recognized and
maintained slavery.
A good deal of row has occurred
over the temperance question. In
their great hospitality the English
hosts have arranged for vinous refresh
ment for the delegates in a side-room
chapel. This has been a horrible scan
dial TO the strait-laced members from
the United States, who are also shocked
at finding wine on tables wherever they
are invited to dinner. The result of
the council is likely to be that the east
ern and western sections will part at
its close having very poor opinions Of
each other. The Yankees know too
much to suit the English, while the
English know too little to suit the
Yankees. The English press say the
American white delegates are very un-
civil to the colored representatives.

A Phenomenon.

On the Sharon farm, near st. Mi
chaers. Nd, there are a number of
peach trees, about thirty years old,
which have produced three crops this
year. After the first crop the trees
did not blossom, but the second and
third crops grew directly from the
wood, like figs, and in clusters resem-
bling cherries. The trees have pro
duced a second crop for several years,
but the third crop is a novelty. The
peaches were diminutivo in size, but
were highly priced as a curiosity.

The Cause.

a conspicous increase of suicides
among the officers of the Austrian ar

is found that pecuniary endorsements
is the cause in ninety per cent of the
cases. The cost of living has greatly
increased in Austria, as it has every
where else in Europe, within a few
years, and at the same time the man.

has become more extravagant. To Off
