Gold i'm Ancient Times.

Gold was in excess in ancient times,
and mostly taken from the rivers IN
Asia The fables of Pactolus, of the
golden fleece of the Argonauts. of the
gold from Ophir, the history of King
Midas, etc, all point to an Eastern
origin of this metal According to
Pliny, Cyrus returned with $4,000
Roman pounds of gold (about S1O,-
600, 0OO). The treasures exacted from
Persia by Alexander the Great amount
ed to 35l. 900 talents, or $500, OO0, 900.
Gold also came from arabia, and upon
the Nile from the interior of Africa.
Pliny calls Asturias the country in
which the most gold is found. A tab
let bearing the following ms .ription
was found in Idanhal Velha, Portugal:
''Claudius Rufus returns his thanks to
Jupiter for having permitted him to
find one hundred and thirty pounds of
gold" .a 81. I41qgHe ui lt-7f ...,.' s''',l

A South American FIESTA.


The chief amusements OF festds con-
sist in letting off crackers, getting
drunk, and a certain mild kind of BULL
fight There are no profess oual toreros,
and although as much as 81 will be
paid for good place. the actors are all
amateurs, often butchers, whose courage
has been raised to the sticking point by
an extra dose of rum. Neither do the
bulls of Costa RIGA seem to be a formid-
able species, and often an old COW is
found the most game of the lot On
the other hand, there is little cruelty
exercised. man and C W having pretty
equal chances; the horns, it is true, are
cut down, but no dogs orcrackers, darts
or bdnderiLiGS are u>ed. The most ex-
citing event is to get saddle on to the
cows back and then to mount her, a
proceeding to which she seems to be
furiously opposed. Neither are any
horses sacrificed in the sport The
butcher testrides one as he drives the
bull or cow into the ring. and perhaps
attempts to work him or her up to a
little display of temper with his chase
or goad; but the horse has no other part
in the fight. The animals are never
killed in the arena; when no more fight
can be got out of them they are lassoed
and led out to make place for another.
The costume worn on the occasion is a
modification of the Sranish-a short
jacket without waistcoat, snow-white
shirt con6ne at the waist by a red silk
sash belt. Panama hat, if one can be
