InSulnr England.

Up to this moment every man who
has passed from the mainland into
Britain, or from Britain to the main
land, has passed by one process, that of
crossing the sea. Nothing has so strong
" kept up the feeling of our island be-
ing, nothing has so deeply impre~ ed 1t
on the minds of others aS this ample
fact that Britain can be reached only 10y
sea. We might even go step further;
we might say that this inSular character
is not merely characteristic ofGreat Bri-
tain and of its inhabitants of all its three
races, but that is a characteristic of the
English folk wherever they dwell. The
great mass of the dependent cOlonlStS OF
Great Britain are geographically island
ers, and even those who are geOgraphI-
cally cOntinentals practically island
ers. They cannot go to and fro, either
toward the mother country or toward
any other civilized nation, except by
sea. And even our mightier independ-
ent colonies, the newer and VaSter Eng
land beyond the ocean, Is, in a certain
sense, insular also. The people of the
United States, even in their vast contl-
nent, with greater stretch of the con-
trnOrs habitable mainland than any
other people, are, for many purposes,
practically islanders, and that even
in a more emphatic sense than our
selves. They cannot match themselves
with their fellows, they cannot visit
either their mother land or the land of
any other nation of their own rank,
without crossing, not narrow straight,
but the ocean itself And much of the
distinctive character of the English
folk in America, as well rs of the dis
tinctive character of the English folk in
Britain, undoubtedly comes from this
practically insular position of both.
Some may perhaps wish the character
of the English folk in eitherhemisphere
to I've other than it is, and doubtless We
are not so perfect in either hemisphere
but that we could stand some improve
ment. But any Improvement which
would make us cease to he Islanders
would be, if not improving us off the
face OF the earth, ut least improving us
out of ourselves, and making us into
some other peOple.-FiCCHlaa, M the

APen.Piefure of the Seaside.

Inc following exquisite DIT vi
wOTd-painting is from the Long Branch
correspondence of the New York TINES:
1.-The scene in and around the Branch
is more attractive this year than ever
before. The ocean-of course, that
never changes from year to year. The
sight of it never wearies. The vast
reach of tossing waters that stretch
till they meet the sky; the proud clip
perS standing eastward with full canvas
and towering mast; the pug-noSed and
venturesOme tugs that dance on the bill
lows and scurry around the huge steam
ers like minnOws about 4 whale; the
tiny dOries scuddiDg before the wind
the harbOr boats, whose machinery
seems to be perpetually reaching down
in the cabin tor something it never
quite succeeds in fetching up; the long
and white and often dazzling beach,
where the great rollers boom and surge
fOrevPr-theSe make a scene which
never clogs. Often mist comes
down
Like slowly dropping wells of thinncSt lawns
and shadows steal hither and
thither in the distance like ghosts. Away
nOrthward, beyond the low blue hills,
lies the great mart, toward which and
from which mighty and never-eGding
tide of commerce Gibbs and flows. To
the south stretches the line of patrols,
with eager eyes strained oceanward for
signs of distress. AS shadows fell upon
the main the beauty heightens. Flee
trio lights flash into sudden splendor
and glow like newly fallen stars. Ten
thousand jets of gas line the beach with
mellow radiance. The young moon
rises dripping from the sea and silvers
the brest of each inconstant wave. The
breeze strengthens, and the hOarse
voices of the beach lift with renewed
power. Like emerald or like ruby
CLEAN the far-off lamps of the incOm-
ing ships. \ distant lighthouse turns
its searching beam from horizon to
horizon with ceaselesS vigilance and
motion. UnOn the pier burns blood
red beacon like an angry eye, warning
Of danger. Anon the SteadineSS of the
wind Slackcns, and its fingers wander
along the wires, and there wakes a low,
rhythmic and throbhing strain. The
muilltd roar of waters swell like the
voice of an organ. A delightful cool
ness steals in from the sea and wOOS all

ing the cottage may be seem a young
girl with wistful eyes turned seaward.
The exquisite, sad face might be repro
duced in alabaster, save for the brilliant
~ red spot which flames on either
cheek. All that wealth can command
or tenderness do Is hers. Mother and
father never leave her. There seems to
be something in the wide-reaching,
dark and mysterious waste of waters
that she loves, for her eyes never lcaveit.
Poor girl! see her on the verge of an
other, more solemn sea, and the tide is
rising fast

Matrimonial Etiquett in Mexico,

A correspondent of the Galveston
Nelrs writes that among Mexicans OF
the upper class husband and wife have
entirely separate apartments, neither at
any time venturing to enter the apart
ments of the other except upon invita-
ton, which is always in writing, and in
terms of formal and lofty politeneSs.
These visits are paid in full dress, and it
is the etiquette to offer the guest light
repast of fruits, wine, chocolate,
"And lucent syrupS tlnct with cinnamon"
The invitations are always returned
with scrupulous attention. THUS there
is a continual interchange Of courtesies
and perpetual cOurtship.

The attempts to discrcdit the police
information Of preparations for an Irish
rising do not shake the belief of the au'
thorities that a serious attempt to seize
Dublin has been projected. The in
structions to the military and police,
which were issued and betrayed last
week, have not been disowned or re-
called. The Irish executive believes that
large supplies Ofarms have been import
ed into depots. All might have been
discovered had the police been less pre-
cipitate. Elaborate precautions are still
perserered with.

The Raphael mine at Downieviue is
SO easily worked that there is nothing
to 20 but shovel up the ore. Mr.. RAJ
phael says four men took out 800 tons
of ore in five days. OF this quantity
there we've only about sixty tons of de-
tached boultlers of galena and hard
carbonates that would have to 60
through rock-breaker. Mr.. Raphael
said no had climbed up into the cave
one hundred feet or more, and found
about nine feet of ore ON the foot wall
at the top. As it widens out az II
goes down, it is impossible to tell what
there is under water. He thinks he
has found the most unique specimen OF
mineral that ever came out of mine
Pendant from the roof of the cave was
a ribbon of crystalized lead six feet
long, an inch vide, and not more than
an eighth of an inch thick in any part
1t was so brittle that it was impossible
to save il whole, though the miners
tried to do SO.
