PAUL KRUGER, the Boer President,
made his appearance in London few
years ago in the broad felt hat, the short
jacket and ''Veldt schoon" Shoes of I'M
tanned leather which form the usual and
recognized costume of farmer of the
Transvaal. 1t was close country, Eng
land, he said, on his return, ''every piece
of veldt seemed to be owned by some one
or another, and if you sat down to smoke
under a tree you hadn't taken two whiffs
before man would come up and say the
land was his and he didn't want you there. "

MORE than twenty years ago Judge
Almy sunk well at Rollins. Happening
to have three or four large oak oil casks
at the time, he knocked in the heads,
burned out the oil, and set them in a well,
one above another, and, strange TIC say.
they are all turned to solid stone, and are
as perfect to-day as when they were put
in the well. The top cask is about two
feet below the surface, and a curb OF
common boards is set over the well, run
ming down to meet the casks. Several
of these curbs have rotted away and been
replaced, but the oak casks appear likely
to stand for ever. Is there here hint
for well builders, or are the causes OF
petrefaction LOCALE

HERES pretty good story clipped
from an unknown exchange: cit is al
ways hard to blame yourself for blum
der, and always easier to assert that
other people are ignorant than to confess
that you are Ignorant yourself. Judge,
said a western lawyer, isn't e-q-u-i the
way to spell equinomical r. Il think sc, ;
said the judge, but I'll look it up in
Webster's dictionary He fumbled over
the pages for five minutes, and then said
in heat, We'll, I've been a Webster
man, and voted for him for president,
but any man that will write dictionary
and leave out such a common word as
'equinomical can't have my vote any

SUGGESTIONS OF TURKISH WOMEN
Harper's Magazine: The Turkish woman
is fanatical conservative. The world in
which she lives is unmoved by the prac-
tical facts of the nineteenth century
which make life burden to her husband.
No Chinaman was ever more impervious
to ideas of Improvement. She is fercely
intolerant in matters of religious belief.
The teachings of the Koran have reached
her by word of mouth, and surrounded
by perfect Talmud of tradition, and
these teachings shape her view Of the
outside world. In obediance to them,
she commonly hates foreigners with pas
sion. As she passes you on the street,
she VIII pray with audible fervor that
your eyes may become blind, or that God
may curse you.
She is superstitious in the extreme.
In sickness she will use the saliva of an
old woman who has never been divorced,
or will inhale the fetid breath of an obi
ferrous and sanity dervish, in preference
to the choicest prescriptions of an edu-
Gated physician. She is assured that
Satan in person teaches Americans their
skill in mechanical arts. She believes in
charms. She will not live an hour bereft
of her three cornered bit of leather which
incloses the mystic phrase that is potent
to ward off the evil eye. She distrusts
Tuesday as the mother of i'll luck, and
will not celebrate the birthday anDiver-
saries of her children. nor even record
the date, lest some magician use it to
cast a spell against the child.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY "a, 1881.
GENERAL NEWS.

PARIS, Feb. 17.-Parnell promised, on
his return to Ireland, to send Victor
Hugo letter upon the political situation
of that country. Hugo said he would
reply to such letter by manifesto to
Europe in favor OF the claims of Ireland.
LONDON, Feb. 17.-Gen. Skobeloff tele-
graphs from Geek Tepe on the 18th, that
the pacification of the country is pro-
crossing favorably; 5000 families have
now returned, amnesty has been proclaim
ed, and the chiefs have promised fidelity.
LONDON, Feb. 1S.-Shaw, member of
Parliament from Cork County, who
seeded from the Parnell party, has is
sued manifesto, in which he charges
Parnell with having, by the unwise use
of the weapon of obstruction, led the par
ty to hopeless defeat. Irish representa-.
ton being discredited and English feel
ing outraged. Shaw denounces the Co
ercion bill, and adiures Irishmen to pre-
pare for freedom by constitutional action.
PARIS, Feb. 17.-Parnell returned to
London to night. After taking part in
the committee stage of the coercion bill,
he will proceed to Ireland on Sunday
next, to address public meeting. He
will return here in eight or ten days, to
take up the work of influencing continen-
tai opinion, O'Kelly remaining meanwhile
to continue propaganda. Parnell great.
ly encouraged by his reception here. He
will probably extend the circle of Irish
propagandism to other countries. Be-
fore leaving Paris, accompanied by o.
Kelly, he left cards at the Elys7e fol
President Grevy. He proposes on his
return here to pay NJ. Grevy personal
visit.
New. YORK, Feb. II. A Cleveland
special says Senator Blaine will certainly
be in Mentor toward the close of the
week. A prominent Cleveland Republi
can says that all understanding between
Gen. Garfield and Conkling, whatever il
may be, goes into effect only after Blaine:
approval thereto, and that one of The IN
derstandings is that Conkling and Blaine
are to be brought into friendly terms
personally, after Garfield reaches Wash
ington. The impression here is that Gar
field has passed the largest and fina
stumbling block in his way to the settle
ment of serious questions facing him
and that after Blaine's departure some
thing definite will go before the country
Conkling was utterly out Of reach while
at Mentor, and correspondents who at
tempted to get near him at the depo
found him SO closely attached to Majo1
| Swain, that no word of inquiry could b.
crowded between them. Garfield hal
| given public utterance to no word tina
can be construed into hint as to wha
passed between the two, but he seems il
very good spirits to-day, and if he me-
any difficulties does not show any i'm
press of them.
