charms after the most approved style OF
Western ballroom fashion; Chinese lady,
under all circumstances, will tasten her

lady exhibits with pride her jet-black teeth;
a Chinese lady glories in mouth full Of

The japanese.

OF the origin of this curious people we
know little: in TACT, nothing, save that
they are branch Of the Mongol, or copper
colored race, and that they have correct
records Of their own country dating buck
four thousand years. Ozone thing, how.
ever, we may be certain: the Japanese are an
entire and distinct race from the Chinese,
and from any other people Of whom we
have any knowledge. They resemble
very much the Chinese in two respects
only: that Of living almost wholly on rice,
and the use of the chop-sticks at their
meals. In regard to language, laws, Gus.
toms, habits, dress, usages, and religion
and even in the small acts and amenities
that go to make up everyday life, the jap.
anese are wholly different from the people
Of the "Flowery Kingdom" So opposite
are they in their customs, that even the
mechanics handle their tools IN a manner
entirely different. The japanese carpenter
draws his plane and saw toward him, while
the Chinese carpenter, more after the
Western style, pushes his saw and plane
from him.
The japanese are warm hearted, friendly
and obliging; the Chinese cold, snaky and
retiring. The japanese are impulsive'
brave and chivalrous; the Chinese slow,
c"wardly and treacherous. The Japanese
are simple, con6ding and trusting; the
Chinese crafty, suspicious and deceittnl.
Both nations excel all others in courtesy
and poli,encss-the japanese from feeling
ofpride and honor; the Chinese from the
mere force of habit and national etiquette
The Japanese meets you frankly, and asks
to be taught; the Chinese looks on with
studied Indifference and supreme contempt
The Japanese makes inquiry about your
country, laws, customs, ect.: the chinese
will hear nothing outside the "Middle
Kingdom" The Japanese spends h''
earnings, and lives joyfully to-day; thu
Chinese carefully numbers his grains o
rice, and stores away for the future. Tit
japanese workman puts by his tools a
night and repairs to his home for supper
the Chinese eats his morsel Of rice at NJ
work, and the sound Of his saw and ham
mer is heard at midnight. The japanese
at the approach Of storm, rc'ires "nde
cover; the Chinese tolls patiently on, re
eardsess OF the elements. The people c
both nations pay great honor and respes

love. the Chinese from fear OF losing
ancestral blessing. Japanese maiden

IN ENORIAN.

Mrs. Francis Jane Boyce, wife of
Geo. w. Boyce, died at their resi-
dence in Osceola, Ark, on the morn
ing of the 2oth of June, 1882. She
was born July 10TH, 1874, in Law
renee County, Ala, and intermar-
ried with Geo. w. Boyce Aug. l1th.
1868. Gave birth to 3 children, two
boys and three girls; two of whom
preceded her to the spirit land, and
three of whom survive her, one boy
and two girls, ages, II, 8 and 2 years
respectively. She has been an active
and devoted member of the Baptist
Church for nineteen years, always
ready to assist in promoting the
cause she espoused and contributing
to the support of the Gospel. She
died as she had lived, triumphing in
the faith, and admonished her be-
reaved husband and little children,
as well as many friends, not to weep
for her. Often she would slap her
honey hands together and shout,
Glory, Glory, Glory. She was a
victim of that dread disease, con-
sumption for several years, During
all her suffering, she did not murmur,
but meekly and humbly submitted
to the will of him in whom she had
put her trust. In the death of Mrs.
Boyce, the bereaved family have
lost a devoted wife and mother, the
church one of its best members, and
the community good citizen; and
while we deplore her absence, aud
recognize the fact that her place can
not be easily filled, we bow with
humble submission to the will of God,
believing our loss is her gain. To
her husband and family we extend
our heartfelt sympathy, and pray
God to take special care Of the little
motherless children.
"No more e'll mourn the absent Friend,
But lift our earnest prayer
And dsily every effort bend,
To ri-e and join her there

A Collision between the steamers
John Lamos and Scioto, near Steu-
benville, o., in which the latter was
completely wrecked, sixty or seven
ty human lives were lost. As usual
in wholesale disasters of this kind,
whiskey was at the bottom-the
excursionists were celebrating the
glorious Fourth, after the manner of
the anti-temperance folks; most of
the officers and crew were drunk at
the time of the collision.

lT is hardly necessary, at this late
date, to announce to our readers,
that Guiteau was hung according to
the original programme announced
by Judge Cox, ON the Both. ult., as
all have doubtless read full accounts
of the hanging, with all its sic'lening
details, as described in the large city
dailies. Suffice it to say that he was
hung, and the majesty of the law
vindicatcd. Let us hope that with
his execution, Gniteau and Guiteau-

will only be known as a hideous blot
on the pages of our nations past

that was dumped into a river neal
Long Branch. AS usual, he was il
the smoking car, and was the first
one to be hauled out of the wreck
by brakeman, who ran his arm
down through an opening. He came
up wet and soiled with mud, minus
his hat, but with characteristic fond
ness for the weed, IA cigar stump
firmly held between his lips, and
walked off, as if nothing unusual had
happened.

Col. J. G.. Frierson, candidate for
Circuit Judge of this district, visited
our town during our absence. We
regret that we were not at home, not
so much because we desired to give
him verbal assurances of his ultimate
success and election, but I'd convince
him, by argument, of the power and
influence of printers ink, when judi
ciously applied on newspaper. The
Colonel, however, made many warm
friends during his short stay. We
hope he will call again.

CHINESE BEDS.

There are two kinds of Chinese beds,
and both arranged for q complete shut
ting in by means of hanging curtains
and tapestry. The expensive kind is
like a sort of cage, having fiat wooden
roof, Just the size OF the bed proper,
supported at height of about eight
scet from the floor on four corner posts
and two intermediate ones. Then there
is q sort OF frieze or entablature work
running around horizontally, above and
below, so that when You are in bed
you are safely penned in sort OF cage,
and cannot possibly tumble out. The
carving on these beds is sometimes
very rich, and they cost much; but the
ordinary and cheaper kipd is made Of
two frames OF wood, shaped something
like the skeleton Of an old-fashioned
"se.tle," which are stood up on the
floor, facing each other. A mattress is
placed on the projecting parts of these
frames, and couple Of slight sticks
across the top; then curtains and hang
ings shut all in, and make it look as
pretty as the taste and money Of the
owner are able. Inside there is cotton
ouilt laid on the m. ttreas frame. The
occupant of the bed lies on this, having
a little roll OF stuff for the lead, and for
a covering very thick cotton quilt.
