days the doors are thrown open at : O'Clock,
and friends introduce strangers. The ladies
are generally sitting ON chairs or divans near
the wall. The gentlemen move up and
down, smoking and conversing now and
then with the fair sex. Game of forfeits
and Others are played, and finally some of
the national songs are given, and the com
pany generally separates at 10 o'clock.
TertullaS of an extraordinary character are
generally very splendid, and the expense of
the entertainment amounts not rarely to
5000 to 5000. Parties given by Amer-
cans and Europeans are readily visited by
the MeXicans, and the latter seem to enjoy

Horse Education.

In something we have written says
the editor of the Farmer. "we have an
indistinct recollection Of having made
reference to a general disposition
among boys IN their teens, as well as
boys of maturer years, 10 enlighten
and bless the world with their pro-
found knowledge Of the horse and his
history. Our books and newspapers
are full IF this kind Of literature, and
1t varies in style from the production
of the child at school. commencing
with: The horse has four legs and i
tai; mp to the eloquent tribute Of the
scholar when he quotes from job: That
his neck is clothed with thunder and
the glory Of his nostrils IS terrible.
He smelleth the battle afar of, the
thunder Of the captains and the
shouting. Between these two eX-
rremes Of the child at his first school
composition. and the professional
literature, We have every grade Of pre-
tenuon, and each protesting Ia have
mastered the whole subject. As We
approach the close OF this nineteenth
century, We begin 20 look fur some
thing better in this department Of
knowledge from those who assume to
instruct And Il is te he found in

not equalled by any study lamp IN use
1t gives a steady, brilliant light; is
free from unpleasant odor;does not drip
