] pleased to call it, was built in 1789 by John White of this city, who re- garded it as his masterpiece and felt as proud of his work as the builder of the famous ssone hoss shay" did of his. When full-rigged and loaded with four inside passengers, driver on the bow and footman perched on the poop deck, s'the .Ark' weighed nearly four thousand pounds; but it was made of such excellent material that in lumber ing over two thousand miles of rough country roads in the South not screw or bolt was started. Even now, after a lapse of nearly century, the old chariot is in good state of preservation and it would stand as much rough travel as 8 carriage built twenty years ago. The woodwork of the vehicle is oak. The axles, wheels, whifetree-bar and fifth wheel do not differ from those parts of the carriages of the present day, except that in MT. Whites masterpiece, they are of monster size. The wheels
 
 use, but their circumference is much greater. That the "Ark' was built to last is proven by the fact that every bit of woodwork, from the sole-leather- covered dash board to the footman's stand in the rear, is heavily bound with iron and strongly riveted. The woodwork ill bodies of ordinary ba- rouches Is quarter-inch ash or poplar, but no such light stuff was used in building this rolling relic of the past century, and the Generals ''heftiest hoss' might thunder his heels against the dashboard for a week without damaging it in the least. Instead of the cloth lining of the carriage known to the present generation Washington's family vehicle is lined inside with black pebbled calfskin, and green painted oak slab blinds, nearly as large as those of an ordinary dwelling house, allow light and air to enter the cavern ous depths of the coach when 1t is in motion. The body of the carriage swings by leather straps from four old fashioned upright springs, which are braced and bolted in a score of places. From the top of the coach to the ground the distance is eight feet six inches and the cavity is large enough to contain couple of hogsheads. The front of the carriage is decorated with two lamps, each of which contains the moldy stub of tallow candle. The ancient vehicle was on exhibition at the Philadelphia Centennial, and is now in museum in that city.

The Concord Coach in Mexico.

In her paper "A Diligence Journey in Mexico" in the Century Mdgazire, Mrs. Mary Hallock Foote gives the following picturesque description of the diligence:
 The diligencia general is the ordinary Concord coach, drawn by eight mules, harnessed in complicated tangle, which is technically described as "two wheel CTS, four on swing, and two leaders, !. c., two at the wheels, four abreast in the middle, and two ahead. The driver wore pair of goat-skin brooches, with the long yellow hair outside, comically suggesting the legs of 8 satyr. He had an assistant beside him, who wielded the whip, or, if whipping failed, pelted the mules with small stones from a leather bag filled for the purpose. There was extraordinary neatness and precision in his aim. The offender was admonished by sharp, unerring little taps upon the ear, or the root of the tail, or projecting hip-ioint. On these occasions, unlike the teamsters of the Northwest, the Mexicans do not rely on profanity.

A NerItahIe Il India Ruhhar Man"

 both hands, pull 1t away from his body
 about eighteen inches, and raise 1t to the level of his head and yet when he leaves go, instead of his skin hanging in horrid folds it goes spreading itself again, so that not crease is to be dis covered. The skin of his nose he can stretch six inches, the skin of his fingers two inches, so that his hands look sizes Nos. 29 or 30. He drags at the calf of his leg and behold 8 goodly and trans lucent membrane, in which can be seen the ramiied network of arteries, pink and pulsating. This does not hurt him. He can-but enough. You see that he we'll deserves his title of ''Gummim- ensch." What with his cada7erous face and gluey elasticity he much reminds one of Dore's ghastly portrayal of the damned in the grand illustrations of tho 'Inferno.'' The medical faculty are highly exercised anent this man and they have begged him for the smallest strip of skin just for microscopical in- vestigation. There has not been such case for two centuries, and in those days of course the microscope was rather primitive. "Gummimensch'' is Bavarian, thirty two years of age, married and has three normal children. He charges two forins to show himself. His skin feels like velvet, or perhaps rather like the breast of plucked fowl, but it is not 8 sweet sensation to touch Vien7ad Letter.

ThankSqIVInq Day.

The Thanksgiving festival has now become national holiday. The ob servance of the day has not yet become universal, but it is extending, and bids fair, before many years, to become an annual social feature in every American homo.
 It is now but three months less than two hundred and fifty-one years, since ed on American soil. The Massachu- setts Company removed to Boston on the 17th of September, 1880. Gov. Winthrop, writing to his wife, who was still in England, at the end of No vember in that year, said, "We are in paradise"
 A few weeks later, starvation stared the colony in the face. In Charlestown, the people, so the town records tell us, 'enecessitated to live on clans and mus cles and groundnuts and acorns." Tho Governor, brave-hearted and noble as he was, " had the last batch of bread in the oven," and was seen "giving the last handful of meal in the barrel unto a poor man distressed by the wolf at the door,"
 A day was appointed for general hu- initiation, {" to seek the Lord by fasting and prayer" Nothing had been heard of the ship sent home six months before to fetch provisions. Just as the colony was on the verge of despair, the ship arrived in Boston Harbor, the day of fasting was turned into ore Of thanks giving by order of the Governor and Council, and was accordingly celebrated on the 22d of February. 1881.
 In November of the same year, another day of thanksgiving was ob- served on the arrival of the same ship, and since then, similar festival has been held with great regularity. The custom did not spread beyond New En- gland until during the civil war. President L incoln was the first to pro- claim 3 day of National Thanksgiving.
 Tn New England, where the day is public and legal holiday, it is an occa- sion of family reunions, and of feast ing and good cheer. To those who have been accustomed to it from child hood, it is the merriest day in the year. Elsewhere, it is wholly overshadowed by Christmas.
 Tho idea is the same in both cases.s The day is devoted by the devout to thanksgiving and praise to God for His mercies, and by all to happy meetings and joyful feasting Youth's Comepanio'e.
