The PIainness Of Persian Dress.

The Governor of the Derguez is a fine
looking man, with coal-black beard,
over the middle height, and apparently
about forty-hve years of age. Like
most people of high rank in Persia, he,
dresses with an excessive plainnessr
whichsmight seem affected did one no;
know that all external luxury in dress is
despised as womanish. OF course the
regalia of the sovereign on state occa-
sions forms an exception; but even he,
on ordinary occasions, dresses in con-
formity with the existing tastes.
In these districts a chief will load his
horse with gorgeous trappings, and en-
circle its neck with a heavy silver collar
set with comedians, to indicate the rank
of the rider, he himself, SO far as dress
is concerned, being indistinguishable
from his own principal attendants riding
around him. In accordance with the
same custom, no Persian will wear a gold
ring, those used by men being invariably
of silver and of the slenderest, most
unadorned pattern. A Turcoman win
wear absolutely nothing in the shape OF
jewelry, except a signet ring; and even
this is only worn by chief or wallah,
them to append their seals to various
documents The seal is always en-.
graved on a cornelian, and the setting
Invariably silver. A Persian will occa.
sionally wear some stone of price, but
always mounted in silver. / recollect
seeing on the finger of the Shah Zade,
Prince Governor of Meshed, q diamond
which can not have been worth less than
f100 sterling, but the slender thread OF
silver round the finger was scarce dis
cernible-L0n0071 NeaCS

The Burden Of Great Wealth.

Gath, in the Cincinnati Enquirer,
writes from Long Branch concerning
some Of the million aires at that summer
resort: =
"There Is not single man here Of
large wealth who does not have to run
up town every morning by the early
train end come down late. Here is Rus
sell Sage, whose capital started Jay
Could on his second great career of in
vestment and speculation. He is lean
man, without much schooling apparent
", He only gets about half an hour OF
rest after he comes down from the city,
and then goes to bed. Most of these
men have attended to business so closely
that their heads are full of it, and they
talk on any other topic with irreverence
and Indifference. They do not play any
games, take any exercise, chase up any
woman, or use their horses and yacht,
even II possessed. A dull, dismal exis-
tence must be very rich mans, and
especially such mans BRIDES. It is
true, she can have every thing about
her that money will buy, such as glasses
aud mirrors, rugs and bronzes, servants
and wardrobes but what's it all worth,
unless either the head or the heart ls
well engrossed? A woman with pious
mind, sincerely loving her business
husband, might lift that interest into q
passion and BY her very sacrifice be sat
isied; but life is very wayward. Piety
Is not general nowadays"

A Good Match.


A gentleman who knows General
Grants daughter, Mrs Sartoris, in
England, says that her marriage,
though it was criticised in this country,
has turned out first-rate match. Her
husband has an income of probably
e. 900 q year, and with home
many years in his family, he lives up
on his income easily and has plenty of
time for pleasure, for hunting, fishing
and boating. Nellie Sartoris has three
living Children, and likes England and
her mode of life. The redeeming
thing In all these marriages, even where
money was the basis of the match, is
the mutual yonth of the contracting
parties. They can grow to fit each
other, especially if they are fruitful Of
children, but it is very hard for people
mismatched in years to adapt them
selves to each other fully any more
than pair of shoes of two sizes can
ever make agreerble locomotion on the
wearer.-Cor. Gin. Fnq.

WASHINGTON, July 30, 1881.
The Chicago and Alton train leaves
ST. Louis at evening, and IL the traveller
in advance for a bed in the
Pullman hewin find himself as comfort
able, and meet as gentlemanly attend
ants, as in any first-class hotel In, the
country. The track is in excellent con-
dition; the cars perfect in ventilation
and all their appointments, and one
can -sleep so sweetly, andi the morning
awake to find the train still pushing on
westward along the beautiful valley of
the Kaw River, both sides of which at
this writing are covered with heids OF
corn so immense and full of promise
that one might safely contract on the
for. the whole world.
