There are some jests, made BY the news
paper fraternity, concerning the camels
that are to be used BY the English troops
in Egypt. It appears that an order has
been issued by English generals, instruct-
ing the soldiers to treat the camels with
kindness, and forbiding "foul language
used in the hearing of these "ships Of the
desert" 1t is said that the camel is
conceited misanthrope, who possesses a
dozen stomaches, to say nothing Of kegs Of
water, and who in the desert has such de-
cided advantage of his companions on the
trip, that his opinion Of himselfis quite ele-
waited, therefore an order protecting him
from theIusual methods ofpunishment, gives
his bruteship a decided advantage in the
march.

He and She.
BY EDWIN ARNOLD.


"She is dead!" they said to him, " come
away" laa
Kiss her and leave her-thy love is clay.
Over her eyes that gazed too much,
They drew the lids with gentle touch
With tender touch they closed up well
The sweet thin lips that had secrets to tell
About her brows and beautiful face,
They tied her veil and.her marriage lace
And over her bosom they crossed her
hands;
" Come away" they said Good under
stands"
And there was silence, and nothing there
But silence and scents Of equiantere,
And jasmine and roses, and rosemary;
And they said, cas- a lady should lie, lies

But he who loved her too we'll to dread
The sweet, the stately, the beautiful dead,
He Lii his lamp and took the key aaz
And turned it--alone again-he and she.
He and she; yet she would not smile
Though he called her the name she loved

The Deaconess Institute,

Among the semi-ceutennials recently
celebrated in Germany is the famous
Deaconess Institute, in Kaiserwerth,
founded in 1888, by Rev. +. Fliedner, the
father of the well-known Protestant mis-
sionary Fliedner in Spain. The begin
nings Of this institution were quite hum
BILE, "the first and only building being
mere shanty." Now there are nine large
buildings at Kaiserwerth, and eleven asso-
citation branch houses in Germany and
in other countries. Altogether there are,
at present, SIS deaconesses employed BY
these houses in various works Of
charity and Christian love. The last
annual report showed an expenditure Of
321 ,164 marks by this institution, which
is the income from voluntary contributions.
The centenary of Sir Moses Montefore
will be celebrated by the United Hebrew
congregation and other societies by ia re-
ligious service, to be held at the Broad
Street Synagogue, Philadelphia, on Sum
day, October 26. A tablet, with suita-
bic inscription, to commemorate the event,
is to be placed in one of the public institu-
tons.

Washington q Week Ago.
"A ZINES couesr cndent, writing
from Wushinnfon Nou I -

LINES coCFcsF Cndent, writing
from Washington, Nov. 1, says:
The day Of preparation is over, the
eve OF battle is here, aud the unhappy
denizens of Washington are awaiting
the shock with anxiety not less in.
tense and painful than was felt in
Belgium's capital when the boom of
Bonaparte's cannon broke in upon
their revelry, ~ years ago. The sim.
lie will not serve me further. Indeed.
! am afraid | have stretched it already.
for those who fear that the battle of
the 4th inst. may be fraught with
hope Oh despair to them, are not, nor
have recently been, jewellers. They
have lived in state of anxiety of
varying intensity since the presiden.
tial election four years ago. Indeed,
anxiety is the normal state of a gov
eminent clerk. The poor wretch or
wretchess holds position that is ever
the battle field OF political parties.
They have no independence, no
trades union. They cannot strike,
they lack that prerogative of all the
industrial guilds, not excepting even
the hod-carriers who have been on
strike in Washington pretty much all
summer.
Civil service laws have been enact
ed for the protection of tie vast army
OF government employees, but they |
have little faith in this enacted law.
and great fear of what may be called
the common law of American politics:
"Io the victor belongs the spoils."
l will not venture a prediction as
to what the result of the election NAV
be. Indeed, it seems almost out Of
place to be writing Washington let.
ter in this crisis, for, although the re.
suit of the election will be felt here
more than elsewhere, there will be no
poll in the District. Many citizens of
W ash'ngton have gone home to vote
n the States where they formerly
wed, and where they, in some way.
till claim political residences, and
ne streets and all the government of.
ices have thinned. out appearance.
