Monex.Mnking at Cnmp.Ieetings.

Gricvous complaint is made at nearly
all the prominent camp meetings in New
York and New Jersey Of the greed of the
people who provide lodging and food. In
the cottages and tents overcrowding of
sleeping apartments is practiced to almost
as great an extent as in the tenement
houses of New York city. Any corner
large enough to hold q cot is furnished
with one, regardless Of how many sleepcrs
may already be quartercd on the premises.
The harvest time is short. and the summer
is so soon ended that the camp managers
must make the most of every lodger from
whom they can worry the price of a
nights bedding. In one very pretentious
"camp" the lodgings assigned to tho
preachers who came by invitation to take
part are in large upper room in a
wooden house, the lower story of which
is occupied by store. A narrow cot is
assigned to each preacher. The cots are
placed so close. together that it is i'm
possible for ANYONE but slender preacher to
walk between them with any degree of
comfort. The washing apparatus for the
whole company of preachers consists of one
washstand with two basins. This is placed
at the end of the room nearest the stair
way.

Black. the Novelist,

London Letter.
OF Mr.. Black (thc novelist) individually
fear can give only an inadequate i'm
preston, so much of his charm depends upon
his personal presence. can say that he is
slight and not very tall, with finely modelled
head and face, broad forehead and strong
rather square jaws, dark hair, and express
i've dark eyes that regard you most kindly
through the habitual glasses that he wears
a dark mustache, and has the faintest sus.
picion of difficulty with his RS that he
is courteous and genial in manner, with @
little trick of looking down as he talks and
suddenly raising his eyes with quick
keen expression at any remark that inter
ests or amuses him. In conversation
he is charming; and in his own house and
at his own table most gracious and kindly
host. His fund Of story, anecdote and re
partee is inexhaustable. He has slender and
we'll formed hands and he is always preul
cheralier in his appearance.

After Bereh,a own Heort.

The countess Of X. is a woman after Mr..
Bergh's own heart, and her servants, who
know her amiable weakness humor it, and
verify they have their reward
Beholding big blue-bottle fly buzzing
round the window and getting pain in
its head by hitting its head on the pane,
her ladyship rings for the servant and
says
Julia, open the window aud let that poor

But, madam, 1t is pouring rain"
"You are so thoughtful, Julia; show the

THE "KINcHING LAZY" so graphically
described in Oliver Twist, has been re-

the apt pupils Of old Fagin.

GEN. FREMONT, who draws the salary of
the governor of Arizona Territory, is a
gubematorial edition of Senator Sharon.
He is rarely ever in his Territory, and is
almost universally accused by the press of
Arizona of having utterly neglected his
duties for the past three years, spending his
time in junketting about the Eastern States.
Just why the people of Arizona should be
worried about the absence of Fremont we
don't know. From our knowledge and
recollection of the General and his ex-
ploits-whish he never exploited-we think
they should be very grateful to him for
staying away and the longer he stays the
greater should be their gratitude, and if he
stayed away altogether they ought to give
him q monument and horse.
