THE DEAD SRA.-A writer in a German
magazine gives sketch of the famous D ead
Sea. He Substantially confirms all the
traditional characteristics, except as to the
appearance OF the landscape and some other
minor particulars. He declares that no 81.
Gillian bay nor the Gulf OF Corinth presents
more varied or beautiful coloring, only the
water seems darker, as of q molten metal,
He denies the general statement that no
bird flies over the waters, and that it's
shores are without vegetation. But he
confirms the tradition that no living thing
is found in it fish coming down by the
Jordan die at once on coming within its
bounds. The water is so thick" that he
moved it with difficulty its bitterness was
terrible: the bottom was slippery, like
soap, and one can scoop up with the hand
slime like mortar. The touch of it causes
great smart to the eyes. While the tenn.
persture of the atmosphere was sixty de-
grees Fahrenheit, that of the water of the
Dead Sea was sixty.four degrees. On COM
ing out of it the body was thickly incrusted
with crystals of salt of magnesia and soda.

A FEW WORDS ON VISITING.

There are various kinds OF visiting; Wis.
its OF ceremony, of congratulation, OF con.
dolence and OF friendship.
Visits OF ceremony should always be
brief. When you pay visit of friendship,
choose time when the person is likely to
be most at leisure.
Visit of coincidence should be paid within
the week after the event which occasions
them.
When you pay morning visit, take
your hat with you into the room; to leave
1t in the hall would appear as if you made
yourself too much at home.
The style of your conversation should
always agree with the character of your
visit. For example, you ought not to con-
verse on literature in visit of coincidence,
nor on deaths and funerals on one of con-
| graduation.
/ Ii you have been to a ball or dinner,
it is etiquette to visit your hostess during
! the week.
If you call to inquire after person who
is ill, after sending up your name or card,
| you must wait the servants return other.
wise it would appear that the state of your
| friends health was a matter of indifference
t you.
II you call to visit friend who IS stay
ing at lodgings, do not attempt to go up,
however intimate you may be, but wait
until the servant returns to say whether OF
not you can be admitted. Never enter a
room without previously knocking and re-
ceiving permission to enter. These formal.
Ities are indispensable, even in the most
unreserved friendship the Observance OF
them preserves familiarity from degener.
ating into vulgar freedom.
Should you happen to pay an evening
visit at a house where, unknown to you,
there is a small party assembled, enter,
and present yourself the same as you would
II you had been invited; converse with an
easy, unembarrsssed air for few minutes,
and then retire. This is much better than
to make precipitate retreat, apologiz-
ing for the intrusion, which would
be extremely awkward both fer the
lady of the house and her guests.
1t would be proper to let it be known next
day, so that the family may hear it, tina;
you were Ignorant that they had company

! the Duke of Albany will be embslmed snd
| brought to England at the end of next week

| The cause of the Dukes death was an effusion
OF blood into the stomach and lungs. There
we're no unusual premonitions, but the 5ymp
/ toms had long been threatening. He was
subject to occasional attacks of internal
hemorrhage. He had arranged to leave
| Cannss on Monday next, as his health seemed
to be restored. During his so;ourn at Cannes

Yesterday he gave dinner.
| A correspondent writes from Cannes, under
date of Tuesday: The Duke on Saturday
was at the Venetian fete, given in his homer,
and looked much better than when he first
came here. Before the fete the Duke and
party dined at the Casino restaurant, and
then went to the theatre, arriving at the fete
in plenty of time to tske part in the enter
tsirment.
In consequence of the Dukes death the
marriages OF Princess Victoria of Hesse and
Prince Louis of Battenbu:g, and of Princess
Elizabeth and the Prince of Aahsl', have
been postponed.
The newspapers last evening and this
morning appeared with mourning borders. A
special morning supplement announces the
| death of the Duke, and alludes to the grief Of
the royal family.

Albany, but was instructed on no account to

Christian, however, first informed her, break.
ing the news as gently as possible. The

engagements the coming week are cancelled,
and the Court ordere into mourning.
The Duke was on the eve of returning to
England when be died. He visited Cannes
iucoguito, under the title of Baron Arklow.
Delicate health prevented the Duchess from
accompanying her husband, her accouchment
being expected il few weeks. The Duke at
Cannes on Thursday signed petition against
