THE ADYANr4GEs OF BEING 4 BoY

At the Railway (N. J) grammar school Adolph Jacobs, aged 13, con- posed and read the following compost tion on The Advantages of Being Boy"
 "A boy is generally born when he is very young, and gets to be man before his mother. A boy is not so skittish as 2 girl. He takes mouse, which would scare his sister half to death, and ties a string to its tail and swings it over his head. Then he is in his glory, and lau3 hs at his sister, who is looking for knct- hole to hide in. He. wears no lace bibs or corsets, petticoats CT skirts. A boy possesses ten times more cheek than a girl, but if he ever does any mischief he owns up to 1t with bright and smiling face. Girls are great ;es, of trouble to their parents, who h2S. ;o keep them until somebody falls in love and marries them. Not so with the boy-he takes cares of horses, works iu ire mines and raises Cain. All that ';ss do for exel else is to make dolls chemises and cro- shet work, while the boy, the spark of mankind. is putting up some job to play on his teacher, or playing the glorious game of baseball. Hurrah then, for the boys. They are the standard bearers of the world p

How tie Euss!ans Keep Warm.


 The Russians have great knack of making their winter pleasant. You feel nothing of the cold in those tightly built houses where all doors and win dows are doubled, and where the rooms are kept warm by big stoves hidden in the walls. Tn re is no damp in Rus sian house, and the inmates may dress indoors in the liehtest of garbs, which contrast oddly with the mass of furs and wraps which they don when going out. Russian can afford to run no risk of exposure when he leaves the house for walk or drive. He covers hir head and ears with fur bonnet, his feet and legs with felt boots lined with wool or fur, which are drawn over the ordinary boots and trousers, and reach up to the knees he next cloaks himself in top coat with fur collar. lining and cuffs he buries his hands in pair of fingerless gloves of seal or bear skin. Thus equipped, and with the collar of his coat raised all around so thai 1t mnfies him up to the eyes, the Russian exposes only his nose to the cold air: and he takes care fre- quently to give that organ little rub to keep the circulation going. A stranger, who Is apt to forget the pre- caution, would often get his nose fro zen If it were not for tine courtesy of the Russians, who will always warn him ii they see his nose " whitening" and will, i, unbidden, help him to chafe it vigorous ly with snow. In Russian cities walk ing is just possible for men during win ter but hardly so for ladies. The women of the lower order wear knee boots :: those of the shoplzeep;ng class seldom venture out at all those of the aristoc racy go out iu sleighs The sleighs are l by no means pleasant vehicles for nery- ous people, for the KaImuck coachmen i drive them at such t rrific pace that they frequently c4psize; but persons not | destitute of p uck find their motion most '.njoyable.

EDWIN BOOTHS EARLTEE AND
 LATER ACTING.

In the earlier part of his career Ed- win Booth was accustomed to act Sir G les Overreach, Sir Edward Mortimer, Pescara, and number of other parts of the terrific order, which he has since discarded. He was great in every one of them. The first sound of his voice when, as Sir Edward Mortimer, he was. leard speaking of the scene, was elc- quent of deep suffering, concentrated will, and a strange, somber, formidable character. The sweet, exquisite, icy. internal joy with which, as Pescara, he old his rival that there should be "mu- sic, was almost comical in its effect of error it drove the listener across the inc of tragical tension, and made him lysterieal with the grimness of deadly aumor. His swift defiance to Lord Lowell, as Sir Giles, and indeed the whole mighty and terrible action with which he carried. that scene-from What, are you pale ?" down to the grisly and horridsvip setense and
 
 i .epnle spasm .oI death--wera sirsplv tremendous. This was in the days winch. lis acting still retained the exuberance f youthful spirit, before "the phllo- sophie mind" had checked the head ong currents of the heart, or curbea imagination in its lawless flight. And hose parts not only admitted of bold roIor and extravagant action, but demanded them. Even his Hamlet was touched with this elemental fire. Not alone in the great junctures of the tragedy-the encounters witb the ghost the parting with Ophelia, the .limax of the play scene, the slaughter # poor old Polonius in delirious mistake for the King, and the ayonehment te' Laertes in the grave-yard-was he bril- iant and impetuous, but in aimos t .verything this quality of temperament ,howed itself, and here, of course, it was n excess. He no longer hurls the pipe .nto the flies when saying, Though you may fret me, you can not play upon me ;" ut he used to do so then, and the rest f tle performance was of piece with hat part of 1t. He needed, in that eriod of his development, the more ter ible passions to deal with. Pathos and spirituality and the mountain air of great thought were yet to grow. His Hamlet was only dazzling-the glorious possi- ,ility of what it has since become. But ais Sir Giles was consummate work of genius-as good then as it ever after ward became, and better thln any other that has been seen since, not excepting even that of Davenport. And in all kindred characters he showed himself q man of genius. His success was very great. The admiration that he inspired partook of zeal that almost amounted to craziness. When he walked in the streets of Boston, in 1857, his shining face, his compact figure and his elastic step drew every eye, and people would pause and turn in groups to look at him. :, -Harpe1-'S Mdgazine.

 The pearl fishery on the coasa f Lower California Is an important indus try, no less than l, 1000 divers being en- ployed in bringing up the costly black pearl, which is found in great state of perfection in the deep waters of La Paz. The pearl oysters are found from one to six miles of shore in water from one to twenty-one fathoms deep Merchants provide hats, diving apparatus, etc., for the prosecution of the business, on con- dition that they can purchase all of the pearls found at prices to be agreed upon. These boats, which are usually of about five tons burden, sail up and down the coast from May to November, searching for the treasure The product oi a years work is about $500, GOO, estimating the pearls at their first value. Of the en- tire yield of Mexican pearls, 10per cent. are white, 40 per cent, are blue, and 15 per cent. are black. The blue stones ere If little value, and, in enerrl, the value of pearls depends good deal upon the fancy of the purchaser, as high as 5000 being sometimes paid for single pearl.
