SOLITUDE

[EIla Wheeler In The Minnehahan.l
Laugh and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone,
For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth,
But has trouble enough Of its own
Sing, and the hills viii answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air;
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn to 60;
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are merry;
Be sad, and you lose them all;
There are none TO decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink LIES gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Feast, and the world goes by;
Succeed and give and it helps you live,
But no mar can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a large and lovely train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain

THE TALE.

"Are there no real good InjunsP'
The cowboy raised his bead,
And glancing at the tenderfoot
He urned to him and said:
81 rode the prairies, pardner,
Ten years in rain or sun,
But us to real good Injuns,
/ hain't met more'n one.
A swig o. that horse liniment,
And then pn try to place
This A virtuous redslIin
That for goodness trumped the ace.
Twas at the bar of hack's Ford,
A lot of boys one day
Got to making things quite lively
In u ball and cartridge way.
l banged rou about me
And didn't count the odds
I'd been soakin' electricisty
Like fifty lightning rods
When suddenly the sheriff
And his gang came bounding down,
And the boys took to their cattle
And busted out o. town.
But something was the matter
With my headworks, L dare say,
For l stumbled by the roadside
And couldn't find my way.
And the next | can remember
1t was night and pitchy black,
And l tried to strike the trail from therH.
But couldn't hit a track,
And 1 was mighty dizzy,
And i felt l should have died,
When standing just before me
An %lnjun's shape | spied.
He held his hands out to me,
But didn't say a word;
And when l tried to hail him
He neither spoke nor stirred.
And then l slipped In somehow
Between each sturdy arm,
And he let me down SO gentle
Without a bit O. harm.
And | lay there quite contented
And slept until twas day,
And woke to fnd him Watching
AT my side the same old way.
30 l climbed upon my uprights,
And n word couldn't say,
But 1 looked the red man in the face.
And then-I sneaked away.
We parted. But, as years pass by,
! wonder more and more
II still that real good Injun stands
AT Maek's tobacco store.

Mr.. Labouchere says that English artisans
do not go to church because they do not I'M
derstand one-balf the parsons tell them and
don't believe the other half; that educated
men prefer heresy because the heretics at

sense and human experience; that the ortho-
dox clergy rely chiefly Upon female influence
because women don't care about reason.

MEXICAN PosrofF1oE METHODS.
Postage PecuIiarities I'm monterey---
No City Delivery, No Stamps Sold,
No Accommodation.

No City Delivery, No stamps sold,
No Accommodation.
Fannie Brigham Ward In Pioneer Press.
The postoffice, on the opposite side of the
same plaza, is an institution of the most
aggravating character, conducted strictly on
Mexican manana Tomorrow principles.
Although Monterey has now many foreign
residents, there is not a clerk in the Office who
understands a word of any language, or can
read other than Mexican names. As the
Spanish alphabet does not contain all the
English letters for instance, it has no W, its
rs are all Frs, and its rs are Y1sl tho mistakes
that p~erpetually occur are enough to make an
angel weep. or course Mexican ladies never
go TO the postoffice, and IL an "AmericanoH
ventures TO do so, perhaps she viii be waited
upon in course Of time, after having been
severely stared at, and all the mon about the
premises are first attended to.
There is no dropletter system, and no city
delivery. II you desire to communicate by
letter with a person in the same town, no
amount of persuasion or number Of postage
stamps will induce the powers that be to to
put your missive into his box. While post
age to the United States, Canada and Eu-
rope is only 6 cents per half-ounce, it is %
cents to any part OF Mexico, if only across
the line from one state to another; and very
particular they are in weighing, to get in
anOtner 20 cents II possible. MeXi-
can postal cards are 8 cents each, good
for any part of the world, except in Mexico
but may not be sent from ono town to an
other within their own borders
In Monterey III you look particularly hon
est they will sometimes sol you enc or two
postage stamps to carry away with you-but
never more than two; while in other Mexican
postoffices they will not sell you any. Why,
heaven only knows, except that it Is one of
the many 'rules of the government" The
postoffice is frequently closed, for hours at a
time, while the postmaster and all his clerks
are enjoying a long siesta. As there is no
outside box for depositing letters, even if we
had stamps to put on them. l am afraid that
this institution is responsible for considerable
profanity, especially on the part of those who
have been accustomed to better treatment in
Los Estados Unidos del Norte, as they insist
on calling our United States, in contradis-
tinction to their del sur.

IOHIUWkO IIIutsI
From across the sea come rumors Of the do
cline of colored hosiery and the supremacy OF
white balbriggans again. 1t is also told that
brides abroad are dropping the old custom
OF furnishing their trousseaux with sets upon
sets of elaborate under-clothing. The rule
at present prevailing limits the supply to sets
of two dozen. The trimming is also less
elaborate than hsretofore but quite as costly,
Tor all the lace employed must be real to
meet the requirements Of the present style.

John C. Kennedy, Post Commander Farragut
Post, Denver, Col:
My DEAR SIR: l am Just back from my
long tour, during which / had the ~satisfac-
ton to meet you in that beautiful city of
Denver, and find here among a vast mass of
letters awaiting my action yours of Sept. 20
asking a hard question. / surely have no
knowledge of the fact alluded to by you that
Gen. Hector Tyndall had proposed to march
an army, lightly equipped, from the Miss
issippi river to some point on the southeast
eIn coast, and would answer simply, why did
he not do itl dom remember such a gen.
eral at all, and l am ignorant of the fact that
he had such an army TO march any time be
tween 1862 and 1865. i have no doubt that
hundreds and thousands of men thought
of such a scheme, but the truth
is nobody did 1t till we did in 1864 and 1855.
A march to the sea was a favorite thought in
lSGl-2, but nobody successfully accomplished
it till the time was ripe, till the southern
armies had been shattered by the constant
hammering we gave them during 1868 and
1854, and until we had an army fit to do the
W ork and in the right place to start from.
All the armies which started from the Ohio
river and went south, and all that started
coastwise from the Mississippi, were march,
ing toward the sea-" and doubtless their
generals, colonies, and even privates thought
they would reach the sea, but none of them
did till we got to Savannah in December,
1884. lam glad the old soldiers feel an in
terest in these questions of the war, and any
time you want my opinion / will be glad to
give it With great respect, your friend,

the sea came up and was generally partici-

claimed that the idea of the march was not
conceived by Sherman but by Gen. Hector
Tyndall. After much discussion pro and
con it was resolved to write to Gen. Sherman
on the subject. Sherman's answer is as fol-

The NO.Fence Law.

To The CHRoNICLE:-I notice ques
ton asked in your columns about the mo-
fence" law, viz ''What counties in the
State have adopted the stock or no-fence
law, and does it give general satisfaction?"
I will answer for Anson. I am not in
formed as to number of counties that have
adopted the law. Mecklenburg, Davie
and Arson know have. Arson adopted
the law in 1881, February 22d, of that
year, think it was, Arson ''tore' down
its fences, and every one was required to
take care of his own stock. The change,
turning the crops out and keeping the
stock up, or in pastures, of course was
quite change indeed, but the general
satisfaction was as great as the change.
Now there is no trouble with the stock,
all, from the rich to poorest tenant, with
scarcely an exception, are delighted with
the change. And if it was left with the
voters OF Arson to-day, believe the mo
fence'' O. stock law would carry by SO out
Of 100. ii.

CHRISTMAS IN NEW YORK.
A Glance at the Gorgeous Preparations
to Tempt the Buyer of Costly Presents.

Special Cbrrespondence Of the Chronicle.
NEW YORK, Dec 19.-After having ex
amined Christmas card the price Of which
is $3.50, am hardly the proper person 70
describe general preparations for the ChEIst-
mas trade for who would not be likely to for
get that there is any thing within reach
even of the contemplation and admiration
OF poor people when SO simple thing as
Christmas cards cost $780,
Yet there is no one so poor but he can
find on upper Broadway and on Sixth
Avenue something beautiful to buy There
are cards for instance for Cne cent each,
which will at least serve to remind the re-
cipent of the sender, and there are thou
sands even much cheaper than this-five
cents per dozen for instance. But to an ap-
preciative man of limited purse the most
attractive places are the book stores
and the book stores are now most gor
geously and temptingly arrayed.
The new thing is stationery which has a
'run" this Christmas is dainty paper made
IN imitation of age stained paper. The
edges are ragged, the corners torn with
regular irregularity and the sheets stained at
various places with various degrees Of de-
cay. The affectation of the ancient never
| took more ludicrous turn.
The wood carver has again come prOm!-
| nently into the Christmas trade, and ink
| stands, tables-everything from heavy and
useful work to the aaintiest ornamentation--
meet you IN the windows or all xmas OF
! establishments. Thank Heaven the sun flow
| er no longer blooms on books and cards
and furniture. but has withered with the
/ fall Of its apostle.
The Christmas books are all out, and the
Christmas number of the illustrated peri
| odcals. You can get no adequate notion
| Of their extravagant endeavor each to out
do the other except by seeing them
Upper Broadway and Sixth Avenue have
run wild. The rush of shoppers and Of
sight seers has made the constant use Of pri-
vate detectives necessary. lou cannot go
into N1acy's, for instance and hope to get out
within an hour. At night it is not different
from the day. The novel and spledid ar
rangements of electric lights, the artistic
displays made in the windows, the gorge
Gus shows of goods on the inside-all these
things are worth more as q spectacle OF
mercantile ingenuity than half the wares
are worth.
There is no department of trade but has
its holiday speciaties. Meanwhile, too, the
number Of poor who pass these splendid
arrays constantly increases. A New York
Christmas is coming to be sort of Rom r
carnival in doors-with all the mockery
and irony as we'll as with all the extrava
gance Of the Romish day. There is one
florist who has Christmas orders to the
amount of $1,00O 900 S. T.
