Ball Room Experience.

A new idea has recently been much
commented upon, and found great ia
vor in Partisan society. At 3 o'clock
in the morning, instead of the same
eternal punch and sorbet an cafe,
trays Of Mariana wine are handed
round. This magical stimulant in
simultaneously inspires new vigor to the
tired dancers, and waltzing recon-
mences until daybreak. We had not
implicit confidence in this delicious
wine, but experience has convinced us.
At the Chinese ball an aged gentleman
who had taken two glasses, waltzed un-
til 7 in the morning, and probably is
spinning round yet.

Henry 0lay's Courtesy.

think | never saw a more perfect
gentleman than Henry Clay. He was
always considerate OF the feelings of
his brother man, and even when sorely
tried never said or did anything which
could possibly offend the lowliest Of
them. / recall an instance Of this.
There lived here in former years
man named Garbard, who, though
rough fellow, was an ardent admirer OF
Mr.. Clay and personal acquaintance.
During one of Mr.. Clay's visits Gar
bard came up to the Springs, arriving
at night in sad condition OF intoxica.
ton. He wanted to know where MI N
Clay was, and insisted upon seeing
him. With some difficulty we persuad-
ed him that he must wait until morn
ing, and he finally said: "Well, just
let me see his foot tracks; that will do
me tonight"
The next morning started with
friend to Mr. Clay's house, and found
him surrou nded with distinguished
gentlemen, both Of this country and
abroad. There were Senators and
Judges and foreign Ambas sailors pres
emit all engaged in discussing, | be-
lieve. some intricate question of for
eign policy. The gentlemen present
would throw out some problem or 9th
er, like tub TO whale, for Mr.. Clay
to play with, as it were. Mr. Clay was
seated at the end of the room furthest
from the door when who should come
marching into the room but Mr.. Gar
bard He had with him, too, an ltal-
ian dwarf, in fantastic dress, with bells
on bis hat, who was venlriloquist and
a mountebank generally. OF course
the appearance of such couple in
such an assemblage created no little
commotion.
Garbard pulled his hat of, and
marching mp to the man OF Ashland,
said: Good morning, Mr.. Clay"
Good morning, Mr.. Garbard," said
Mr.. Clay,
'Well, Mr.. Clay" continued the 9TH
er, 81 know you are good judge of
men and are fond of music, so brought
this man up to amuse you. He can
initiate any kind of an animal in the
world, and T. have him 60 through his
programme for you"
Everybody else in the room was
abashed at the mans forward manner,
but MIR. Clay arose ana stepped forward
as though he was interested in the ex-
IRENE.
Then the fellow began his imita-
tons, | could not stand it, and went
out Of the room, as did many others
Finally, Mr.. Clay went up to the fell
low, and, taking S. bill from his
pocket, said:
81 appreciate your efforts, but know
you must be extremely fatigued from
your exercises, and trust you will not
attempt anything further" aud the man
went of

The different kinds Of criminals in
New Mexico and Arizona are given dis
tinguishin9 names. "Rustlers are
thieves who steal cattle on the United
States side Of the line, run them into
Mexico, sell them there, and then load
themselves with Mexican plunder for
the return trip. "Cowboys are those
who earn an honest living by herding,
and behave well enough when at work.
although when in the towns for holi
day they commit all manner Of outrages
FORUM. "Cardjerkers are professional
gamblers who cheat those with whom
they play. "Dinglers are stage rob-
bers. " "Notchers "are men who wantonly
take human life, apparently with the
sole object Of gaining reputation q
desperadoes. They are the terror of the
border, and little is even done to bring
them to punishment except by sudden
resentment of . mob. Silver City, how
ever, is an exception in this respect
among border towns, for it has a District
Attorney who prosecutes vigorously and
. Sheriff who does not let his prisoners
escape. The trials are queer. the jurors
often being unable to understand any
thing but Spanish, while the speaking
is done in English but that does not
seem to hinder convictions, for sixteen
condemned murderers were in Jail under
death sentences only ten days ago.

I must give here as my opinion,
founded on what have observed, that
lips become more or less contracted in
the course Of years, in proportion as they
are accustomed to express good humor
and generosity, or peevishness aud y
contracted mind. Remark the effect
which moment Of ill-humor and grudg-
ingness has upon the lips, and Judge
what may be expected from an habitnal
series Of such moments. Remark the
reverse, and make q similar judgment.
The mouth is the frank part Of the face !;
it can the least conceal its sensations.
We can hide neither ill-temper with it,
nor good We may affect what we please,
but affectation will not help.,s. In y
wrong cause it will only make our OBJ
servers resent the endeavor 10 impose
upon them. The mouth is the seat Of
one class Of emotions, as the eyes are Of
another or rather, it expresses the same
emotions, but IN greater detail and with
more irrepressible tendency to be in
motion. It is the region Of smiles and
dimples and Of trembling tenderness. of
sharp sorrow, Of full breathing ioy,
of candor, Of reserve, Of carking care,
Of liberal sympathy.-Leiah Hunt
