German Press Opinion.

Der Beobdclster, leading German pa
per, says:
In this country we see frequently the
notes issued by the Confederate Gov
eminent posted up in showcases as a
sort of curiosity, and now and then we
hear of q greenhorn whom sharpers
have sold with these nice-looking spec
linens of paper money. But neither
Confederate notes nor Confederate
bonds have in this country what might
be called a money value.
But it is different in England. Her
capitalists during the War invested
large amounts of money in the bonds
of the Southern COnfederacy, and these,
as well as the paper currency of the
late Confederacy, are up to the present
day quoted as of money-value in the
English market. And why? Well, the
English capitalists know better than
seems to be appreciated ON this side of
the Atlantic that the old Rebel element
party, and that as soon as the latter
get into power the redemption of the
old Confederate debt will be only
question of time. Considering that
the face value of Confederate bonds
and paper money held in England can
not be much less than l, 900 millions of
dollars, it is not so very strange that
the people in England manifest such
admiration for Grover Cleveland, al
though they never heard of him before,
and desire nothing more than the vic
tory of the Democratic party. The
sentiments uttered by Southern Demo-
Gratis i'm Congress have done everything
to keep the English creditors of the de-
funct COnfederacy in good spirits, for
they have made several open and UNI
i'll Government to the assumption OF the
old Rebel debt. Now, of course, the
Democrats keep quiet ON this subject,
and even say, when the matter is
brOached, that the payment of the Rebel
debt is out of the question, but just let
the Democrats, and through them the
old Rebels who still claim that the
South was i'm the right and has been
shamefully wronged, get control of the
National Government. and the mask
will soon be thrown off.
The large surplus i'm the National
Treasury, which is now complained of
SO much by Democratic speakers. and
denounced as an evidence of Republic
fore the sun when the payment of the
Rebel debt is begun, and that it will be
paid when the Democratic party gets
into power nobody can doubt who fully
cOmprehends that three-iifthS of the
Democratic party of to-day are COM
posed OF the supporters and defenders
OF the late Rebellion.
Where is the sensible American citi-
zen who will east his vote for the pay
ment of debt created by those who
wanted to destroy this Nation, which
me does when lie votes for the Demo-
cratic party?

Incidents at q Fire in COnstantinopIe

We saw a young woman brought out
of burning house with copper ket-
tie in her hand. She was screaming
wildly, my baby! Oh, my baby!"
The woman had been engaged in the
kitchen, with her infant in her arms,
and had been busily occupied saving
her cooking utensils by throwing them
into the cistern, quite unconscious that
her dwelling was already on fire. The
fremen, having discovered her in that
perilous place, had rushed into the
Kitchen and forced her to hasten out.
On her way she had espied copper
kettle, and had instinctively seized it;
but in her fright and bewilderment,
she had thrown her baby into the els
tern instead of the kettle. Fortunately,
a sturdy fellow succeeded in rescuisg
the baby. and restoring it to the dis
tracted mother.
The other incident was even more
dreadful. AS we stood looking at the
fire, we beheld man struggling, and
the next moment saw him deliberately
thrown into the flames.
George and / exchanged looks of hor-
ror, but the by-standers seemed to pay
little heed to the occurrence, merely
remarking that the man was an incen-
diary who had been caught in the act
of spreading the fire for the purpose
of robbery. From '.HoU We t0ere

Siberian Hospitality.

Even hospitality, that true Sclavonit
virtue. has not become acclimated in
this inhospitable region. The peasants
like to visit and treat each other, es
pecially on high days and holidays
but this hospitality is the result of cal
culation. When a man goes to visit
his neighbor, he never goes straight tC
his house, but walks along tho road.
and stops as if by chance and begins s
conversation; then, if the master OF
mistress wishes to see him. they invite
him in. When the samovar is ready,
they drink tea out of saucers, now anC
then taking a bite of piece of sugar
In this way they consume about three
cups, and then turn the cups upside
down, placing on the bottom the re.
mains of the sugar they have been
nibbling at.
As soon as tea is over, the guess
rises to go, and then the following dia
logue invariably takes place: 'Why
are you in such hurry" says The
hostess.
Time to 60 home" answers the
guest.
Stay little longer"
THANK you; you have given u
plenty to eat and drink"
"There was but little"
mo, there was quite enough; We
had plenty"
This conversation which always takes
place, and is almost mechanically re-
peated, being ended, the guest ap
proaches the host, and taking his hand
SAYS: II thank you for the vodka, the
tea, the cakes, the sugar." etc.
1t is Indispensable, when thanking
the host to enumerate everything the
guest has consumed during his visit
At the end of this catalogue the visitor
humbly begs his host to come and sec
him, which, after time he does, and
things go on in exactly the same way.
Care must be taken that the viands are
of equal quantity and quality. If a
any time a man eats or drinks more
than his host, when guest, on for
mer occasion, did, quarrels, upbraid
ings, or sarcastic remarks are the re
suit.
IL gave them tea and sugar. anG
they gave me nothing but tea;" or I"
gave them cake, and had nothing bu
bread in return"

Dio Lewis reaches the conclusion
that consumption is found in every eli
mate. Inhabitants of the frozen re-
gions and those who live under the
equator die of consumption. As to
the United States, there is no doubt
that New England has the largest ratio
of mortality from consumption. But
the difference is slight.
