Strong civil service resolutions were adopted

ARABPS ARMY.

The Politische Correspondent thus de-
scribes the component parts of the Egyp-
tian army: "It consists, first, of fellahs
who have property; secondly, of fellahs
who have no property, and, thirdly, OF
negroes The fellahs who have property
are ruled by the thought of speedy re-
turn home. Arab and his colleagues
promised to dismiss them as long ago as
the 1st of February, 1880, and ever since
desertions have increased surprisingly.
The deserters are brought by force and in
chains, but as the authorities dare not
punish them they soon desert again,
They assert that Arab and his compan
ions would never have become what they
are without their (the fellahs) help, and
are allowed to entertain this belief as a
means of keeping them faithful. For
more than year they have been very ir-
regular in exercising, and many persons
wonder that they are allowed still to keep
guard. The fellahs without property, on
the contrary, never desert. They have
become accustomed to a garrison life.
Those who can read and write, and are
not above 20 to 80 years of age, become
gendarmes or policemen; and the rest re-
main in the army, and when it is abso-
lutely necessary to reform them they are
sent to the coast forts Or into the capitals
of the Provinces. This class may be con-
sidered the most solid portion of the Egyp-
tian army. But it is doubtful whether
they will remain faithful to Arab Pasha,
unless he can make them believe that he
is acting under the Khedive's orders. 1t
is certain that many would be inclined to
leave, if they did not fear losing their liv-
ing; these, however, are the minority.
Lastly, the negroes are slaves from the
Soudon, gathered from various parts, and
were mostly taken from shareholders and
put in the army when Ismail Pasha made
the treaty with England to abolish sla-
very. To these negroes the .Khedive is
an impersonal being, and they attach
themselves to their officers, from whom
they would not be easily seduced. They
are savages who do not fear death, al
though they are somewhat efeminated by
the lie in Cairo. When the officers de
sire that the negroes should accomplish
some movement, they provide them law
ishly with busa, kind of beer, and thus
intoxicated the negroes would equally kill
the Khedive while invoking his name, or
allow themselves to be hewn to pieces for
his sake, according to the orders they re-
ceived, They, are all married, and their
wives, who have great influence over
them, follow them to the field They
know no discipline, and would, should
their wives be in danger, disobey all or
ders. The mass of the Egyptian army,
however, consists OF the fellahs. There
are very few Turks and Tscherkesses
among the higher grades of officers; all
the others are Egyptian parvenus, who
have worked their way up from the pike. :"

81. NICHOLAS FOR OCTOBER

The last number of the present volume,
shows no diminution in the excellence
that has distinguished the previous issues
of the year, and is a better augury for
the volume to come than are pages of
prospectus.
The frontispiece is a faithful reproduc
ton of drawing by w. T. Smedley, and
is called "When we were Boys"

gend of, '"The Famine among the Gno-
mes" beautifully illustrated by Birch.

PROFITABLE WATERs.-The huge Su-
tro tunnel, which has been run under
the mountains of the Comstock mines in
Nevada, is four miles long, and the water
runs through in a pine fume, made close
to prevent the escape of vapor. The
temperature of the water is 1875 degrees,
and 100000 gallons are discharged
every twenty-four hours. The water
loses but 70 degrees of heat on its pass
age, and is used for mechanical purposes
by that company, and afterward through
a second tunnel, 1,100 feet long, and an
open waterway mile and half in
length to the Carson river. Along it's
course dams are built and hotwater baths
are thus extemporized, which are always
ready for use 1t is also used for laun-
dry, and for irrigating tract of 1000
acres belonging to the Tunnel COM
pany, and plan is on foot to lead the
hot water by iron pipes under the sur
lace of the ground, near the roots of a
large number of fruit trees, and also to
turn it 10 account as means of apply
ing artificial heat to lighthouses on large
scale.

FLOWERS IN THE FALL.-Of course
there are exceptions to all rules; the
stiff-petaled woodbine. hangs out it's fra
grant clusters in the spring, and the
morning glory, which would be cherish
ed ornament of the conservatory if it were
not so common, fourishes its delicate
bells in the very face of the autumn
frosts; the first of which lays them low,
their beauty turned to worse than ashes.
But the general class of antumn flowers
shows its sturdy self-reliance in every leaf
and petal Even their hues are the most
brilliant of the year, as if they scorned
any attempt at concealment. The poets
are never weary Of singing about the gol-
den-rod lighting up with It's splendor the
gloomy thicket-where golden-rods never
grow; the sunfower and its cousin, the
wild artichoke, blaze like floral suns from
mid-August until late i'll the fall; the as
tiers clothe their stiff petals with most
brilliant hues, and the chyrysanthemums,
which come last of all, have stems more
nearly resembling the true wood plants
than ANIMALS, hcwers from whose petals
all softness has fec and general appear
ance of being prepared for almost any
amount Of rough weather, as, in fact
they are, for it takes very sharp frost to
kill them.

A SERVANT GIRLS FIENDISH RE-
VENICE.

Early yesterday morning Detective
Mahoney, of the Third Precinct, arrested
Mary Heaney, aged %, on a charge of
setting fire to bed in which two chill
dren were sleeping at No ISL Congress
by Charles @. Putnam, who few days
ago took the girl Heaney on trial as
domestic. She proved unsatisfactory, be-
ing both ignorant and impudent. When
Mr.. Putnam returned home from busi-
ness on Wednesday evening, Mrs Put
nam said she could not keep the girl any
longer, and Mr.. Putnam at once dis
charged her. She went to a room in the
upper part of the house to get some clothes
belonging to her, and then left. Mrs.
Putnam had a presentiment that every
thing was not right, and she went up
stairs to see that the children were safe
in bed.
She found the door fastened with a
catch on the outside, which, having never
been used before, must have required
force to get it into place. Mrs. Putnam
called to her husband. The latter ran
up stairs, and, without waiting to unfast-
en- the catch, burst in the door. 1t was
most fortunate that no time had been
lost. The mattress of the bed was smold-
ering, and the bed clothes were partially
burned. The room was so full of smoke
that the two children sleeping quietly in
bed would probably have been suffocated
before the fire was discovered. A few
pals Of water quenchyd the flames which,
if left to burn few minutes longer,
would not only have caused the death of
the children, but have, in all probability,
caused the destruction of the house as
well. The prisoner pleaded not guilty
before Justice Bergen yesterday, and was
held for examination .-New York Times.

The Princess of Wales, now in her 38th
year, is described as looking scarcely a
day older than when, on March 10, nine
teen years ago, she stood at the altar by
the side of her young husband. Nor do
advancing years change, save to deepen
and strengthen, the regard and affection
in which she is held by the people of
England. By common consent she is
placed beyond the region of criticism.
''What the Prince does" is the topic of
free discussion-praise or blame-every
night at score of clubs and in drawing
rooms innumerable. But the good taste
of ''what the Princess does is never for
a moment called into question.

The best way for everyone who under
takes the culture of tobacco is to raise his
own plants to begin with, but they will
require much care and close attention.
Soil must be kept moist, and no weeds
should be permitted in the bed. Liquid
manure, such as barnyard teachings, will
promote growth very much. The plants
should be started in hotbed, though the
sashes should be removed occasionally, to
prevent scalding or burning. Sometimes
insects begin their work when the plants
are quite young, but applications OF soap
suds will prevent their ravages.

ing cough will he relieved at once by Pa

"Forty Years. politely says marriage is

the truth. "Yrneh' advises young men
to celibacy simply because they cannot
earn more than SO week. Another mis-
take. Hevery person took this view of
the matter, sswhere would be the "rising
generation" and the "bone and sinew of

and find that can support my wife and
child comfortably, and save few dollars
as well, aid this without stinting
How Do / do it? I pay low rent, re-
frain frcm the necessary evils of billiards

EXPERIENCE OF A MARRIED MAN IN OHIO.
To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir: /
can live in Cincinnati for about thirds
of the cost of living here. / married two
years ago, at the age of "a, and ON a sal
ary of 500 per week. Of this amount [
allowed my wife $12 per week for house
hold expenses, including rent. At the
end of the first year she had clothed her
self and showed balance Of $295.75-s
saving of Sc per week. My clothing and
necessary expenses in the mean time
reached $55. making the total amount OF
necessary expenses the first year only
$283.25.
For the second year / allowed my wife
800 additional for clothing: my expenses
reached SIS. OF her 800 she saved $40
and said she had plenty. The second
year closed on July 81, and our settle
ment showed an additional balance in
our favor of $40 from her allowance. [
in the mean time had saved and accu-
mulated nearly 5000. So we put our saw
ings together, and last week moved into
little house of our own, which is all paid
for except about $500.
Never at any time have our total ex-
penditure exceeded $3.50 per week, all
told. We think young couple who
cannot live on 50 per week would make
as great failure on $22. will add that
am good liver, and our table has al
ways been amply supplied. One thing |
should mention, however, is that | had
bought nearly $500 worth of furniture
just before our marriage.
